Global financial systems fracture as the White House recruits TikTok influencers to manage the narrative surrounding Russian sanctions and the end of the petrodollar era.
Vladimir Putin declared the end of Western global dominance in a March 16 speech, asserting that the seizure of Russian Central Bank assets by the United States and its allies has permanently undermined trust in the dollar-based financial system. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy countered with an emotional virtual address to the U.S. Congress, successfully securing a $1 billion military aid package from President Joe Biden that includes Switchblade kamikaze drones and Stinger anti-aircraft systems.
In the wake of these escalations, Yale Professor Jeffrey Sonnenfeld has coordinated a corporate boycott of Russia involving over 400 Western companies, while the London Metals Exchange suspended nickel trading following a massive short squeeze. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Representative Maria Salazar continue to push for MiG-29 transfers and no-fly zones despite warnings from military experts regarding mission creep. Meanwhile, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki held a private briefing for thirty TikTok influencers to frame domestic inflation as a Putin price hike, and Meta adjusted its hate speech policies to allow calls for violence against Russian soldiers. Reports also indicate Saudi Arabia is in active talks with Beijing to price oil sales in Chinese yuan, threatening the long-standing petrodollar system.

CHAPTER 01 / 63Discussion
NBC Meet the Press Ukraine War Summary and Biological Weapons Claims
NBC's Meet the Press provided a summary of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, highlighting civilian casualties in the streets and the evacuation of a maternity hospital. Reports indicated that Russian forces were closing in on Kyiv and hitting western cities near the Polish border, such as Lviv. The discussion noted a shift in media rhetoric from "biological weapons" to "biological and chemical weapons," while Volodymyr Zelenskyy warned that Russia's accusations against others often reflect their own future plans.
00:00 Suddenly life was better. Seeing red and green and broadcasting live from the heart of the Texas Hill Country FEMA region number six in the morning everybody I'm Adam Curry. And for Northern California we're wondering what he's laughing about, uh...and were also wondering what happened to the maternity hospital? I'm John C. D'Amore. That's it! It's long COVID it's done my career is over like a can't talk anymore Hey you sound like one those sir or one of those
00:41 Sexy bar flies. Hey, no I don't I sound like I can't I can't modulate it's it's the weirdest thing Anyway what's the status of the maternity hospital John? Well you know that's funny You know I've been not in any way to ridicule things mm-hmm but uh You know me But I keep bringing this kind of a running gag up because they keep talking about it So then after the last show, which was I think the seventh or eighth time I've discussed this maternity hospital that was bombed by Russians. Yes. I go to back to TV and immediately start doing research for the next show and go to Meet The Press. And there it is again! This is actually a pretty good rundown. This is Sunday's Meet The Press Ukraine summary
01:36 As Russia's hopes of a lightning quick victory have evaporated, it shifted instead to shooting at people who can't shoot back. Consider these lasting images of Russia's war of choice here... A mother with two children and family friend lying dead in the street struck down as they simply ran for safety And then there's this, babies and pregnant women being evacuated from a maternity hospital after it was targeted by Russia. Russia continued its onslaught closing in on Kiev and now hitting Western cities including an attack overnight at a military training center near Lviv that was just 15 miles from the border with Poland, a NATO ally. Ukrainian forces are hitting back attacking that convoy outside of the capital
02:18 But in the besieged city of Mariupol where mass graves are being dug, there's no food. No water. Mass graves? And they're increasing concerns that Russia may use chemical and biological weapons as a way to try to target... Have you noticed how the biological weapons have now become biological and chemical weapons Oh no, I haven't noticed that. Yeah yeah we went from biological... Well we know chemical is the best because well we have experience with that. There are increasing concerns that Russia may use chemical or biological weapons as a way to try to target insurgents hiding in basements. I don't think so! Even as it accuses Ukraine of planning such an attack but as Volodymyr Zelensky said if you want to know Russia's plans look at what Russia accuses others of So is Vladimir Putin really looking for an off-ramp?
CHAPTER 02 / 63Discussion
Nancy Pelosi Comments on Russian Atrocities and MiG-29 Transfers
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi addressed the American public regarding Russian atrocities and the potential for the conflict to escalate into World War III. Pelosi discussed the strategic importance of anti-aircraft missiles and the possibility of transferring MiG-29 fighter jets from Poland to Ukraine. The proposal involves backfilling Poland's fleet with American F-16s to maintain NATO security while providing Ukrainian pilots with familiar aircraft.
03:04 If so, what kind of deal can you make to end a war with a country that won't even admit there is a war? All right, all right. I'll take your nonsense from Chip Todd Chuck whatever his name is and i will add for you the response from our extremely competent government what they're doing about this these are atrocities thank goodness we have Nancy Pelosi leading everything and she can explain it to us but they know that we can't go there Putin is trying Baked a trap so that we go in and that's the beginning could be the beginning of World War three a Putin totally irresponsible using weapons that are not allowed under the Geneva Connect Convention connection threatens chemical use of chemical weapons
03:56 nuclear and the rest. So they know that we can't, but it's the ask now he was this morning more less if we can have an if we can't have a no-fly zone let us I just love that this is, you know, this is who speaks on our behalf right now and explaining it to the American people what we're doing. that policy more on let us do it, help us get the planes. But also there is a school of thought that thinks the anti-aircraft missiles and the rest are very important way. Myself when I see those tanks at 40 miles of tanks
04:45 I'd like to take out those tanks. I mean, I think that them having more planes might be useful but that...I'm not a military strategist. No kidding! We hope we will be able to get up to a place- you asked me how I've been- I hope that we can get to a place where the MiGs which are the kinds of planes they've been trained on can go to Ukraine The F-16s, especially if we have an excess of them can backfill Poland. Tell me that isn't embarrassing I mean that's just embarrassing the woman can't speak a full sentence No And meanwhile the actual solution has been presented to us. I have two words for you
CHAPTER 03 / 63Discussion
United States Deployment of Switchblade Drones to Ukraine
The United States and its allies are exploring ways to send armed drones, specifically Switchblade "kamikaze" drones, to assist Ukrainian forces. These drones are designed to dive into targets and explode upon impact, similar to technology used previously in Kabul. Operating these systems requires specialized training, leading to discussions about the role of U.S. military advisors in the conflict zone.
05:33 Predator drones. The source also saying the US and other allies are looking at ways to send armed... Wait, let me play that clip I'm sorry Oh it's a seven second clip seven second clip The source also saying the U.S and other allies are looking at ways to send armed drones to Ukraine To help stop the Russians from advancing Yeah uh I want to talk about that too but Pelosi in her little diatribe there says that the Russians have threatened She specifically said they have threatened the use of chemical weapons. I haven't heard that. Yeah, so i'm asking you...I thought you may have heard something because- No! I've not heard this at all but that's news to me. Who is she here from? Well she's Nancy Pelosi man
06:15 No idea. What was that? The 7 second clip was about the drones, I have a couple of clips where they're talking about the drones Yeah these are the... You give them drone and all of sudden they got joysticks or flying around This takes a lot of training These are the switchblade drones I think that's the same one that did such a good job in Kabul you know the one that killed the teacher and those kids That's the kind of drone their talking about The one that dives down switches open like a switchblade knife then explodes Oh, so you don't this doesn't it take some like I would assume someone to be able to do that longer of training to operate one of those correctly. Yes that's why we send over advisors You know advisors they only advise well now move the joystick a bit to the right and then press the button We're at war! We're doing it Well its nuts because the thing is and I want to go back in time To something you brought up on the last show which was this Sargon woman
CHAPTER 04 / 63Discussion
Batya Ungar-Sargon Critiques Mainstream Media Coverage of Peace Negotiations
Author Batya Ungar-Sargon appeared on Real Time with Bill Maher to criticize mainstream media for ignoring potential off-ramps in the Russia-Ukraine war. She highlighted that Vladimir Putin laid out three conditions for a ceasefire: Ukraine abandoning NATO aspirations, recognizing Crimea as Russian, and acknowledging Donbas independence. Ungar-Sargon noted that Volodymyr Zelenskyy expressed a willingness to negotiate on these points in an ABC News interview, yet Western headlines remained focused on escalation.
07:19 So I went back and listened to that thing. And, uh...I have a clip because i think this war is going to be over tomorrow It could it could be! That's why they're ramping up COVID again We've gotta keep people scared Seems like there was an agreement on the table between Zelenskyy and Putin Well she discusses the Sargon brings something up Who was she again? Because I forgot entirely who she was She's the woman who wrote Bad news woke media. Oh, yeah. Yeah No, yeah why exactly the woke media is undermining democracy? That's who she is Yep And but and I should mention because I was thinking about this this book has been written About ten times in the last 10 years hmm. I know I've been keeping up with it
08:11 Every year, one of some writer who's like her a liberal who is looking around saying hey these people are naked because they're doing this job and they're pretty much lying to the public. I'm going to write a book about it. And the books always says the same thing that the media stinks and is run by corporations that don't care or do care, and they're just promoting some agenda and is all bad news." She has the best title so far. This book has come out over and over again this is the latest version but she comes out And this is, I'm sorry. I've congested now too. Yeah, I infected you. I'm sorry. You did over the... This is that mic is phenomenal! That mic is so good! This is Sargon versus Bruni. This guy Frank Bruni who came on and he's ra-ra-rar He's a tough guy and he's on The Mars Show and she said what she says here Oh this is that the New York Times reporter?
09:09 Yeah, isn't he the...he was on the show with her? He is the elitist New York Times reporter. And what she says here and there's other clips to back her up is is an indictment of the media and especially the mainstream. And then what he says in response, it's just like did he even listen to her? This is the best example I could find at a bang-bang couple of clips that So two people, you know one person these people on the left and Frank Bruni got a New York Times The Washington Post of all the mainstream media guys. They've got their head up there at listen to
09:57 I believe that if you're not going to absolutely crush your enemy, you have to give them a way out. And the thing is we're not gonna crush Russia. We are not gonna crush Putin. We should not be invading. We should not be giving a no-fly zone now here's the interesting thing that people who are disconnected from the news as well as people who are connected from the news don't know which is that on Monday putin laid out three conditions for immediately stopping the campaign in Ukraine, the invasion of Ukraine that war there. The three conditions were that Ukraine give up trying to become part of NATO, that Crimea be declared part of Russia and that Donbas region be recognized as independent. In other words Putin said if you recognize the actual status quo
10:43 I'm willing to stop this immediately." Then later that night, Zelensky gave an interview to ABC News where he said on NATO he is willing to give up his claim to NATO. His requests to join NATO on the Donbas and Crimea He said those requests...he's not going accept them as ultimatums but he is willing to negotiate on them In other words the two sides of this conflict on Monday of this week said that there is room to negotiate and agreed on much of the territory. You did not hear about that in any of the mainstream media except for a tiny bit here, tiny but there why aren't the headlines saying the two sides are willing to accept some up the same conditions they're moving towards each other you only read about that in the Israeli news? Why isn't it? Why aren't we helping them end this? Why are we escalating our media
CHAPTER 05 / 63Discussion
Frank Bruni and Media Narratives on Putin's Rationality
New York Times reporter Frank Bruni dismissed the possibility of rational negotiations with Vladimir Putin, characterizing the invasion as a "narcissistic meltdown." Bruni advocated for increased economic sanctions despite admitting they might not work, leading to critiques of his stance as "virtue signaling." The discussion contrasted Bruni's emotional analysis with the specific territorial and political demands previously outlined by the Kremlin.
11:30 What was interesting about that soliloquy of hers is she knows the answer. She wrote the book about it, yeah? She knows and it's not effective to keep asking the questions but yeah And I think that he even so Zelensky and that's even mainstream now Is that he said well you know what if I just say I won't go into NATO Ah, we can't have that. Well actually I have another clip to back these two up which is the Ukraine-Russo deal but listen to now okay now what she said was that Putin laid down here this this and this and i'm out of here
12:09 It seems reasonable and there's... And it is, by the way which are the same things that we've discussed on this show as probably the characteristics of this whole thing. Which is no NATO, we get Crimea and we want Donbass to be independent. That's it! We've discussed since this thing started. This looks like it has always been a target. It's a replay of the Georgia scenario. Everything falls into place. It's not unreasonable. But wait a minute, yes it is. Let's listen to what our New York Times guy... after listening to what she said instead of defending the media or saying anything like it
12:49 He says it's some sort of bull crap and Putin is nuts. Here we go! That all sounds very rational but I don't think we're in the realm of the rational here, I don't think Putin is acting rationally so I'm not as confident that this thing can be negotiated like sanctions for example, I think were doing the right thing The more sanctions the merrier... I don't they are going to work though because Putin isn't playing in the field of economics What? Wait! The more sanctions the MERRIER But they're not going to work. Right there, you can stop it there and analyze that. The more sanctions the merrier but they're not gonna work what's the point? It's at this point is just virtue signaling is just mass hysteria
13:37 It's beyond, it was pretty much what you've been saying. Yeah! But it is beyond its abnormal thinking. Yes So let's go and can... Let's back up a little bit listen to that stupidity that he just spewed and then let him finish up with his analysis not the reality You know, like sanctions for example. I think we're doing the right thing The more sanctions the merrier Um...I don't think they are going to work though because Putin isn't playing in the field of economics Putin is playing in the field of ego His and his countries And this-this is war as a narcissistic meltdown Right? This isn't rational Well you're correct What you were saying was not rational that's for sure
14:21 So you have to do it on ego? What does that mean, what's the strategy when... It doesn't mean anything. These guys are nuts! This is bad reporting this is what the media has been doing these people should be out of business its really borderline pathetic and to take what she said and not argue or discuss it and go on with your... Oh no With Putin's nuts notion Its from steroids I heard this morning because he's been taking steroids He's gone steroid nut Rooney no No, Putin. It's the steroids man I wouldn't be surprised he was if he was not taking Some kind of stimulant well know they this testosterone is old yeah, I mean even Joe Rogan takes it He's got low team and low T. Low T. You go so all right listen I want to play something for you Oh Just just to give you the just some more idiocy Abby Phillips is back on the scene
CHAPTER 06 / 63Discussion
Abby Phillip on U.S. Leadership in the New World Order
CNN's Abby Phillip discussed President Joe Biden's upcoming NATO meeting and the shifting role of the United States in global security. She questioned whether the U.S. will continue to lead in the "next era of peace and security" or if it has taken a back seat to European decision-making. The commentary linked this perspective to a broader globalist agenda and the influence of the Obama administration's foreign policy framework.
15:18 Remind me who she is. Oh, she was yeah Abby Phillips says she was on RT and had that show Yeah, oh come on She was the one that started cussing all the time Abbie Martin? Oh I don't have the wrong one. I thought it was Abby Phillips. Oh that doesn't count then who's Abby Phillips That's what I was asking you We might as well play the clip now since I've already introduced. I'll find out who she is when President Biden is at this NATO meeting which I think is going to be an extraordinary meeting that we see next week What does what does he have to do? What's the assignment? The question is where and how is America going to lead in this new world order There's no question that everyone agrees. We have entered a new phase of
16:04 of global peace and security and conflict, frankly. And for much of the last century the United States has been leading will they lead in the future? I think that's a huge question because on a lot of this stuff as it relates to this conflict while the US has been on the forefront of making clear what Russia is doing it has seemed that they've taken a back step to the Europeans. They've said to the Europeans you guys decide what you want to do follow along so that we have a united front. And I do think it's a big question whether the Biden administration perceives the United States as playing the same role in this next era of peace and security and conflict on the globe, as they did in the last
16:49 era and how they do that, what they are willing to say and promise. What signals they give to Ukraine about their future in some of these organizations whether it be the European Union or NATO? Huge questions I think on the table for global leaders Yes, too bad it wasn't Abbie Martin after all but this is kind of the feed thinking. It's like oh you know we need globalism We need global leaders to take care of us This is Obama's thinking yes! Obama was exactly the same way and in this situation since this action has taken place in Europe I don't think we need to be leading the way But that's okay let-I just wanted to go back to this comp-this thing going on with the Sargon and the other guy
CHAPTER 07 / 63Discussion
Ukrainian Official Mykhailo Podolyak Predicts Imminent Ceasefire
Mykhailo Podolyak, a senior Ukrainian official, stated in a PBS NewsHour interview that he is confident a ceasefire could be reached within days as Russian advances stall. Despite these diplomatic signals, questions remain regarding the "off-ramp" for Western sanctions, including whether Russia will be reconnected to the SWIFT financial network. Some analysts believe the current economic isolation of Russia is intended to be permanent regardless of a peace deal.
17:32 And his irrational response to her observation that no one's covering the reality of this thing. This isn't some coverage of it right here, this is Ukraine-Russo deal afoot! A senior Ukrainian official says he's confident that Ukraine and Russia are moving closer to a possible negotiated ceasefire as NPR's Ryan Lucas reports the two sides have held several rounds of talks as Russian forces pounded cities across Ukraine. Speaking through an interpreter in an interview with PBS NewsHour, Podolak claims that Russia's attack has become bogged down in the face of Ukrainian resistance. They are stuck fighting in their current positions and they have no chances whatsoever to move further into Ukrainian territory. Therefore we have much confidence that we will have a ceasefire in the coming days. Russian officials have hinted that the two sides may be closer to a deal but the country's president Vladimir Putin has not publicly signaled readiness to pull back his forces
18:36 So here's a question. Let's say they come to a deal, is there an off-ramp for us? Everyone's talking about it do we have an off ramp for Putin is there an off ramp for us Do they get reconnected to Swift? Do all those companies turn everything back on I don't hear anyone talking about that. Nobody's talking about that! I believe this is intended to be permanent, they have no intention of bringing Russia back into the financial network There may be a clip within my clips that actually says what you just said Okay You know, do sanctions unless they're permanent Right And... The Russians are all set up for this and we care
CHAPTER 08 / 63Discussion
Russian Self-Sufficiency and the Impact of Agricultural Sanctions
Social media content from Russian citizens suggests that domestic supermarkets remain stocked despite Western sanctions, highlighting a degree of national self-sufficiency. Previous sanctions during the Trump era forced Russia to develop its own dairy and produce industries, reducing reliance on European imports from Poland and Germany. This shift toward "import substitution" has made the Russian economy more resilient to current Western attempts at isolation.
19:15 as far as I can tell. And it did, because as long as the oil and gas keeps flowing a billion dollars today is what they're bringing in and that's not changing. What's interesting is if you look at YouTube and TikTok and you look at Russian citizens and they're speaking directly to the West and they're saying hey you know I just want to show you guys what's going on over here then it's weird because even for me And I'm somewhat worldly, I look at this. Oh wow that's a really modern gas station! Look at that supermarket and they got all kinds of products in the shelves are stocked and you know they have issues but there...and i'm sure their KGB agents FSB who are...this is all propaganda. I can't believe it's allowed but yes but it seems like okay now we'll just muddle on forward Well the thing that happened during the first round of sanctions which Trump put on and I guess they're put on by
20:07 I can't even remember the reasons for that. but they sanctioned for one thing or another. And one of the things it did, it screwed up if you remember all these stories this is during our show era and the new agenda era a lot of I think even all the Polish there's a lot of Polish Hungarian and German fruit sellers that used to sell a lot of their fruit into Russia they were cut off And a lot of the dairy in the European area that was sending their milk products and cheeses like the French, they were cut off.
20:49 report that the Russians had finally rediscovered that they have milk, they have cows and they make cheese. And the Russians themselves were rediscovering their own cheeses and milks in their own products instead of going back and forth with a Russian's export a plum and they import a plum which I've always been baffled by this idea being a great idea But I'm baffled by people thinking it's a great idea that I export a plum and import plumb. When I see Yamato tractors coming into the United States, we ship caterpillars. You know why don't we just keep the caterpillars and use them? And they can keep their... Anyway so the point is the Russians have a lot of self-sufficiency it is the world's biggest country
CHAPTER 09 / 63Discussion
Vladimir Putin's Speech on the Decline of Western Dominance
Vladimir Putin delivered a speech on March 16, 2022, declaring the end of Western global dominance in both political and economic spheres. He argued that the seizure of Russian Central Bank assets by the U.S. and its allies irreparably undermines trust in the Western financial system. Putin predicted that the "myth of the Western welfare state" is crumbling and warned of impending global food shortages caused by sanctions.
21:41 This is really a war of networks and this network war is all around us. Besides the obvious what you'd think when you say network wars, Fox, CNN, MSNBC but there's people who own social networks they're at war silencing people financial networks food supply networks energy networks electricity networks and the people really don't control much of these networks at all And that's the thing that gets me no one I think still people don't walk around going those damn Russians, I want to kill all the Russians. It's only Putin but they don't think twice about what it is doing to normal citizens. This again it just that mass hysteria that we're in. Putin gave an address
22:29 which is always fun because you know I have to make sure it's been properly translated. Sergine, of course a very sketchy red scum Russian but we're just gonna the best we got so we have to trust him and he obviously sees a very different side since he speaks the language and understands the culture having come to Minneapolis when he was a kid from Russia from St Petersburg I just want to read this piece of what Putin said. He gave an address and it was directed at the West, and no one bothered to put that on television. They could have mocked him for it! So the Russian president says the myth of the Western welfare state is crumbling
23:10 Russian President Vladimir Putin has opined that the latest rounds of unprecedented sanctions imposed on Russia by the US and its allies over the Kremlin's military campaign in Ukraine mark the end of an era. According to Putin, from now on, the West will be losing its global dominance both politically and economically." So he spoke on Wednesday and said Exactly, this so-called golden billion is crumbling. Moreover it is the whole planet that has to pay the price for the West's ambitions and its attempts to retain its vanishing dominance at any cost." The president predicted food shortages across the world as Western sanctions against Russia are adversely affecting the entire global economy. And touching on a decision by several Western powers to freeze Russia's central bank assets, Putin claimed that this would only serve to irreparably undermine trust in those nations and make other countries think twice before placing their reserves in the care of those countries. According to him half nearly half of Moscow's assets were simply stolen by the West and that is
24:09 by definition true. If he can't send a message to say, hey put some of our money from this account into that account to pay for something then you know he has no control it's not their money and they have a debt payment due which was pretty funny where was that? I wasn't exactly expecting to do this right now anyway i'll play that later um...I think there may be some truth to that we're seeing Now the prices of gas have gone down but that's mainly because China has shut down important ports and cities for new COVID or whatever. I don't see them, i see it only affecting us negatively. Blueberry you know blueberry the podcast hosting company? No no okay well you should know blueberry. I should yeah so Todd does a show with Rob from Libsyn it's kind of an industry thing
CHAPTER 10 / 63Discussion
Russian Debt Default Risks and London Metals Exchange Volatility
The London Metals Exchange (LME) experienced unprecedented volatility, forcing a suspension of nickel trading after prices doubled to $100,000 per ton due to a massive short squeeze. Meanwhile, financial analysts are monitoring Russia for its first external bond default since 1917, as sanctions prevent the Kremlin from servicing dollar-denominated debt. While Russia has the funds to pay, technical restrictions on its frozen reserves may force a technical default.
25:12 Yeah, we have a lot of Russian podcasters and now all of the sudden they can't pay their bill. Oh really? Yeah I was like now We're trying to figure out ways to help them No de-platforming of Russia when it comes to your own company and oh goodness yeah, we didn't know that would affect anything I mean these are things you know did they game all of this out do they think about all the little nuances Biden Well, I mean this it's more than just Biden I would presume It's actually the National Security Council. They're the ones who called the shot, yet it becomes a conclusion that the National Security Council actually runs the country. Here here's this clip about
25:51 It was very interesting watching CNBC because they're trying to give us correct information. That's kind of their job. How does that work? Oops, yeah right! Yeah it looks like no Morgan so far I've seen no evidence of interest payments on those dollar denominated bonds reaching the accounts of bondholders We're monitoring the situation closely. It's fluid and it could be indicative of the nation's first default on its external bonds since the Bolsheviks took over way back in 1917. This is less a story about Russia's economic ability to pay, the country has half as much debt as General Motors and was Rated investment grade as recently as last month due to its large reserves and flowing oil. But sanctions froze its dollars in reserve, and other technicalities are likely to prevent the Kremlin from servicing it's debt as required under its bond contracts. Paying with rubles, as Russia has indicated it was willing to do would still constitute a default according to ratings agencies. So someone is going to get screwed
26:52 Out of a payment and it's not, it's gonna be Europeans and Americans if they default on the bond. And they say we want to pay We just can't do it The London Metals Exchange finally reopened Oh yes! Whoa this was fun the price of nickel doubled to like $100,000 What is that per ton? I don't know Yeah I'm not sure what it is And here's the cool thing So I guess they have, you know like the over-the-counter market in the metals which I guess is people faxing each other trades back and forth. And some trader in China was short
CHAPTER 11 / 63Discussion
Victoria Nuland and the 2014 Ukrainian Government Selection
A leaked 2014 phone conversation between U.S. Assistant Secretary of State Victoria Nuland and Ambassador Geoffrey Pyatt revealed the U.S. role in selecting Ukraine's post-revolution leadership. Nuland expressed a preference for Arseniy Yatsenyuk ("Yats") over Vitali Klitschko ("Klitch"), suggesting Klitschko should remain on the "outside." This historical context is used to frame current Ukrainian political figures as products of American diplomatic engineering.
27:33 nickel and now we're finding out what happened. And all of a sudden he got under short squeeze and he owed eight billion dollars to I think JP Morgan so that's why they closed down the exchange, and they reversed the trades! They literally, and now some people were making... Yeah. Some people made a lot of money and those trades were reversed as well! That happens Here's the CEO of the London Metals Exchange Matthew, I'm again from my own experience when any trader knows that there is a position out there that either can't be closed or it's just sitting there like the elephant in the room Is all the price action until that position is closed?
28:19 A bit of a false market until we know what Xing Shan are going to do with this position. So the reason that we took the very difficult steps last Tuesday, that we had to suspend the markets is because exactly as you say, we felt that the pricing was being produced was not representative for physical markets because of what we now know is the existence of this very large short position So I agree with you, we cannot get accurate pricing with a situation like that in the market. That is why we have seen that action taken and that's why we are more confident today that when we reopen will start to see some proper pricing signals but we also have other policy actions that we can take going forward so I agree with you
29:09 The key thing is pricing that works for the physical market and that's not going to happen when you have a disruptive situation like we see at the moment. IE nothing is going to change, totally! That was totally messed up. We've got to change stuff more legislation they're getting sloppy too John they're getting sloppy in who they're putting on they're getting sloppy and who they're letting speak Let's go back to 2014 for a quick 22-second reminder of Victoria Nuland talking to her ambassador discussing who they, the United States envoy were going to put into the Ukrainian government after the American orchestrated revolution. I think Yats is the guy who has got the economic experience and governing experience he's you know what he needs his cleach and tiny book on the outside he needs to be talking to them four times a week
CHAPTER 12 / 63Discussion
Vitali Klitschko Warns of Potential Russian Chemical Attacks
Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko appeared on CBS Evening News to document damage to the city and warn of potential Russian chemical attacks. Klitschko, a former heavyweight boxing champion, claimed that Russia follows no rules in the current conflict. Critics suggest that Klitschko's prominent media presence and warnings about chemical warfare are part of a coordinated narrative to increase Western military involvement.
30:00 You know, I just think Klic going in he's gonna be at that level working for Yatsinuk. It's just not gonna work Yeah No, I think that's right Okay All right So who shows up in the CBS this evening report Vitaly Klitschko is the mayor where Charlie is in key He's been documenting the damage to his... Klitch is right there baby City on his social media pages In his previous life The mayor along with his brother once dominated the heavyweight boxing world Well, earlier today we spoke with him about his latest fight. The fight for his nation's survival is your city in the crosshairs tonight? Yeah, it's every night during the day to reason that people spend weeks underground
30:49 in bunkers. The people was so angry, it's no panic instead of panic they want to fight and they want to defend the city. Mayor you have warned that Russians could carry out a chemical attack do you see any evidence that could happen soon? Everything is possible. We see in this war, Russian doesn't have rules." So what you're seeing I think is the ego's coming forward He was kind of pushed out by Victoria Nuland in 2014 he should be on the outside I don't see him working on the inside and now he's weaseled his way in This is a crack in their thinking
31:35 This guy should not be on. He's going to ruin it for him and he's spreading the chemical weapons thing, which is not biochemical! Yeah they're probably losing control of the narrative I think so And it doesn't help the Sargon woman these other, the cracks are there. This is thing like I said this has got in pretty soon because of both sides are you know Putin wants it over that's for sure i mean unless you think he's nuts and he doesn't ever want to take over the world Nancy's gonna get an F-16 and strife the 40 mile long tanks jump in a plane she's gonna blow it up if she could um and of course we had The Great Show by the way again
CHAPTER 13 / 63Discussion
Volodymyr Zelenskyy's Virtual Address to the U.S. Congress
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy delivered an emotional virtual address to the U.S. Congress, invoking the memories of Pearl Harbor and the September 11 attacks. Following the speech, President Biden signed a $1 billion military aid package including 800 Stinger anti-aircraft systems and 2,000 Javelin anti-tank missiles. Zelenskyy continues to plead for a no-fly zone, though the White House remains hesitant to implement policies that could lead to direct conflict with Russia.
32:24 Taking the Polish MIGs, old MIGs and MIG-29's and then giving them away so you can backfill them with... What are we going to give them that F16 is free? How do I deal with this? Yeah. Well yes! You and I were paying for it listen Here's what's going on. The theater has been cranked up, they did an off-way production in Canada just a little test run to see how it would work with the true liberals up there to have Zelensky speak in front of the Parliament and plead
33:01 And they tweaked the message and then they brought everybody in, all the politicians all sat in a room. Did you saw that room where they were sitting on two sides kind of more like a theater style with a big screen up front with flags? You saw that? No Yeah, it looked like clips from it but I didn't see it. Oh, it looked very much like the Apple commercial depicting George Orwell's 1984. All those videos were there. The famous 1984 commercial actually played in 1984 at the Super Bowl they were a little too close together you know and all standing ovation both sides because the war machine is on and it is ready now this is before
33:43 Zelensky spoke. This is Good Morning America Today, Zelensky is expected to ask for even more support He has urged lawmakers to support a no-fly zone There's little appetite for that here on Capitol Hill But the New York Times is reporting that Ukrainian officials are expected to hand over a list to the US of what they need in terms Of military equipment everything from armed drones to mobile air defense systems Equipment they believe it easy to use but can make a very big impact on the battlefield. And if this speech this morning is anything like his address to Canadian Parliament, it will be emotional and personal He will ask them to imagine if the US is under attack and that their target is their family, their children This was interesting because she already knew what he was going to say
34:30 This is before Zelensky spoke and he will make it personal, and he will ask them about their children which is exactly what he did. Exactly! 9-11 Pearl Harbor... Oh that's a scam? Yeah! Oh no Oh no, it's a scam? Really? Let's continue. The war machine cranks up again! asking for, like those anti-tank and anti-air systems. As the U.S., also now as Rachel just said considering sending armed drones as well this is part of that aid that the president signed as a bipartisan package yesterday and take a look at what I'm told is the weapons that the United States has provided Ukraine in the past year 600 Stinger anti aircraft missiles 2600 Javelin anti tank missiles
35:31 200 grenade launchers and ammunition, five choppers three boats 70 other vehicles. And there has been a billion in aid just in the past week alone. Amy we are also learning this morning that now President Biden is heading to Europe next week he's going to attend NATO summit in Brussels The White House right now isn't saying at this point if he's planning to head to Poland meet with refugees or whether he will meet with Vladimir Zelensky In person, they are still working out the details. But no doubt Amy the timing of this is expected to show a serious show of force and unity among these allies. Did you hear that? That's coffee lady! That laundry list? 2,600 tank-busting... Yeah I heard it. You know what? Where are those things?! How come no one's using those or have they already been smuggled to Africa or something? Oh they're selling them! So what let's why didn't they just move this stuff from Afghanistan that the 80 billion dollars worth of gear and give it to these guys? Don't bring in logic let's stick with the warmongers Now I have the Zelensky speech to America report on NPR
CHAPTER 14 / 63Discussion
Congressional Debate Over No-Fly Zones and MiG Transfers
Representative Jason Crowe and other lawmakers expressed bipartisan support for increasing the quality and quantity of weapons sent to Ukraine, including Soviet-era MiG fighter jets. While the Biden administration views the transfer of jets as a potential escalation, many in Congress argue it is necessary to "close the skies." Military experts cited by Defense One remain skeptical of no-fly zones, noting they rarely achieve their intended goals without significant mission creep.
36:37 Which is a little less breathtaking than this last report you had. Yeah, I wanna mention something quick which is Defense One which has very good newsletter for people like to follow this stuff they brought up in it and kind of an editorial but it was a very nice piece called... give us an example where No-Fly Zone ever worked? And they say, here's 10 and I wish they had it in front of me but they have 10 questions to ask about no-fly zones. The point that their making is that they never work, they never do work... They just don't work! They're just bull crap! It sounds cool and Lindsey Graham loves how it sounds
37:21 And it's like, it's nonsense and you should take that into account when you hear all this. It just causes nothing but trouble anyway and that's from the pros but let's listen to this is the mayor at the Zelensky speech to America. And this is from NPR? I believe so, yes. Zelensky has spoken with U.S. lawmakers before... Right off the bat at ERO test. Z-Z-Zelinsky? Of course! Zelensky has spoken with US lawmakers before what was different about today's address to Congress you think? Well this one was public he's previously spoken in private with lawmakers
37:58 But this speech was broadcast live to the American people. And I think that broader audience was who President Zelensky was appealing to, who is making the case of the American people about what's at stake for his country but also for democratic rule in Europe. He spoke in Ukrainian but at the end he spoke in English and directly appealed to President Biden. He urged him to be a leader of peace. At one point, Zelensky played a video that had really graphic images showing the brutal impact of the war in Ukraine. One lawmaker I talked to said it moved many in the room to tears. Well what about his plea for more weapons and more sanctions? Did you get a sense that lawmakers were receptive to that?
38:37 Very receptive. Members of both parties says the U.S. needs to step it up, they want the US to transfer more defensive weapons, more of the Stingers and Javelins, the anti-missile systems that have already been deployed. There's also bipartisan support in Congress for the US to facilitate sending these Soviet style MiG planes from Poland that Ukrainian pilots can... What is it with Soviet-style MiG planes? Is that like AR15 style, I don't understand. Migs are Soviet planes! Soviet style! Stingers and Javelins the anti missile systems that have already been deployed there's also bipartisan support in Congress for the US to facilitate sending these soviet style mig planes from Poland
39:24 that Ukrainian pilots can use to do, as Zelensky said, to close the skies. The Biden administration has argued that doing that would be an escalation but lawmakers up here say Ukraine needs those planes to tip the balance Here's Colorado Democratic Congressman Jason Crowe He is in Iraq and Afghanistan war veteran I think we could provide more weapons and better weapons to help them fight and win The bottom line is the Ukrainians, if this is an equal playing field will win. But it's not an equal playing field. Okay more weapons Deirdre but what about a no-fly zone? Like most members of Congress have opposed that right did this speech change any minds
CHAPTER 15 / 63Discussion
Maria Salazar and the Biological Weapons Warning on Tucker Carlson Tonight
Florida Representative Maria Salazar appeared on Tucker Carlson Tonight to advocate for a no-fly zone over Ukraine. During the interview, Salazar claimed that a Russian biological attack could occur "within the next few hours" because Putin was unable to take Kyiv. Critics pointed out her lack of specific knowledge regarding Russia's nuclear arsenal and her shift in pronunciation from "Kiev" to "Kyiv" as evidence of following a scripted political narrative.
40:05 Not on that issue. The majority, as you say agree with the administration's position that a no-fly zone risks drawing the U.S into a broader conflict Some have started talking about what they're calling a humanitarian no fly zone But it's unclear how that would work Okay Tucker had a Republican on just to show use the war machine and representing the 27th district of Florida Maria Salazar And they had gotten an interview on the street with her for saying, oh yeah you know I'm all for it. You know let's do the no-fly zone how can we not?
40:48 And so Tucker invited her on and she came on, credit to her there. She defended her position and that wasn't as interesting to me but she disqualified herself during that interview at a certain point and to me you know that just shows you're untrustworthy You're just virtue signaling, you're just part of the warmongering crowd No matter what position you take that even sounds reasonable, you're just disqualified. See if you can catch it." Because we believe... We don't need more evidence that Putin has bad intent, that he's evil A lot of people believe he is crazy including some informed people including many Russians So we know he is volatile and how many nuclear weapons does Russia have? Do you know?" Many
41:33 Many. One is enough, and that's a fair answer. So are we concerned at all that he might use a nuclear weapon against the United States? Is that something you consider as you recommend these policies? Of course! We're very concerned and also concerned that he may be throwing a biological weapon against Ukrainians within the next few hours because he cannot take care or Keev as he thought he was going to. Did you hear it? Well, I heard ten things. I can't isolate one! She said they were gonna do a biological attack in it in a couple of hours which is... well, I guess already passed so that didn't happen so she's full as shit period she didn't think much about getting bombed by nuke and she doesn't know how many nukes he even has here's the capture here's where you can see that she's captured and is using approved talking points at the very end
42:34 against the Ukrainians within the next few hours because he cannot take Kiev or Kiev as he thought he was going to. She switches from Kiev to Kiev, come on that is now you are all in when you're doing that because that's that's the Ukrainian side and you say Kiev your Putin puppet and she realizes oh oh oh Kiv Can't be trusted. It's obscure, but the parameters you gave me were too vast I agree was too fast. She was blowing it left and right so i want to play one clip from my neighbor Laura Logan who I think was deplatformed just in time because she knows war
CHAPTER 16 / 63Discussion
Lara Logan on the Azov Battalion and Ukrainian Corruption
Journalist Lara Logan appeared on Real America's Voice to discuss the presence of the Azov Battalion in the Ukrainian military and its use of Nazi occult symbols like the Black Sun. Logan argued that the U.S. and NATO have a long history of funding these groups and that the current conflict is being used to obscure deep-seated corruption in Ukraine. She also questioned the effectiveness of Western weapons shipments, suggesting they may be diverted through illicit trafficking networks.
43:23 There's a lot of things you can say about Laura Logan, but she has done some outstanding reporting from war-torn areas. Yeah, from real war zones not hanging out in Lviv reporting about the action someplace else Thank you by the way Duke David Fugazotto he sent some pictures from one of his trips to Lviv Yes, he did. What a beautiful place Beautiful Oh beautiful So, so Laura Logan is now on Bitchute podcast but she did make it onto cable. You know she was de-platformed for comparing Fauci to Goebbels okay? So and that oh we can't do that
44:03 for whatever reason. She couldn't, she couldn't and I think then she was annoying! She was making too much sense he was making good long-form pieces on Fox Nation about what's really happening at the border, was talking about Afghanistan...I think it was more about Afghanistan and what really happened there that reporting got her in trouble once again her reporting got her in trouble with the networks so she makes it onto Real America Voice. Wait a minute stop Is she off Fox now? Yeah, oh yeah. She's fired, de-platformed gone done not even on Fox Nation as far as I can tell no archives nothing So the Laura Logan has no agenda is done? I believe so. I thought it was still on their web...I'll look at their home page and see Well she's available for you and me It's interesting succession planning You get us both killed Finally i can use this name
45:02 Now Ukraine, you and I know just historically and from doing this show for 15 years we know that even though Lviv is beautiful in general what has been going on in Ukraine has been nothing but a hotbed of corruption cyber activity weapon smuggling money laundering drugs human trafficking hookers assassins. It's probably one of the worst places in the world. And CIA is all over that particularly when it comes to weapons smuggling I shouldn't and not even smuggling it's just trafficking. It's just trafficking which is why i question these 2,600 tank busters where are they? You can shoot 40 at each of those uh you know at each mile of the tanks Nancy Pelosi so I don't know where it is we're and how come we're not seeing any stingers going off they have them don't they well there's a
45:54 I've heard one report which is not being discussed that the Russians are using their high-end Sukhovskys, whatever those SU planes. Those super great fighters And they're shooting, all the shots are taken from the other side of the border. Those things have such long range! No, they just hang out in Russia and just shoot from there Yeah, you're all in Russia taking potshots Have you seen any visuals of a Russian jet flying over? No no this is one of the problems I have That's the reason Well then there's no reason for a no-fly zone if they're flying over their own country. I know, there is no reason for that either The whole thing is like...I hate to say it but It's a scam
CHAPTER 17 / 63Discussion
Historical Context of U.S. Involvement in the Maidan Revolution
The discussion revisited the 2014 Maidan Revolution, noting the presence of high-ranking U.S. officials like Victoria Nuland, John McCain, and Lindsey Graham in Kyiv. These figures were instrumental in supporting the uprising that led to the ousting of President Viktor Yanukovych. The segment emphasized that current tensions are rooted in this period of intense American diplomatic and intelligence interference in Ukrainian internal affairs.
46:41 Went in 2014 and we just have short memories. I mean you and I don't although they're waning but we remember We have short memories too, but we have clips Yes, we have a we have tons of we have historical archive up the wazoo to document everything that happened And I'll just name it again Victoria Newland Biden Bunky Moon, Lindy Hopp Lady G. Lindsey Graham John McCain Amy Klobuchar John Brennan John Brennan CIA they were all over there for the Maidan I got another picture it looks more it wasn't doughnuts or cookies that Victoria Noonan was handing out on the square it looks more like Danish yeah either that or hockey pucks someone sent me a picture well if they're Ukrainian then you I'm guessing Ukrainians love a good Danish okay
47:32 So Laura gets on Real America Voice. Now, and I don't want to be a dick or anything but...I mean you might as well still be on a de-platformed channel if your on Real America Voice And the show is with Ed Henry Remember Ed Henry? Isn't he an old foxhack? Yeah, yeah. So I guess after he got removed or fired Or maybe this was a leg up for him But the real America voice is...I don't think it's if you can find it It's on Pluto level so that's where Laura gets to talk and I think it was on Pluto. I will say that she has transformed herself. Tina doesn't agree with me, she thinks she still looks the same I think-I think she's really changed her appearance She's got heavier eye makeup Shes got a lighter shade of lipstick Her hair is a little blonder, shes had it done so- I didn't think that Tina would be more into noticing these subtleties than you but wait let me back up Since you've been in show business technically Tina never has been Maybe your right
48:35 Um... I think she's distracted by her boobs because that's the thing of Laura Logan, like that just doesn't change. You know like holy crap cause she displays them and she makes jokes about it! She does, she makes jokes. In front of visitors though! They love to make jokes about them in front of guests I wasn't expecting that. So that makes her that much more endearing but you know what's give me give it a name of that network again real America voice real America's voice this is on Pluto
49:12 And I have seen it. It's on Pluto! And I have seen it, and because there was a bunch of... Because I was looking for RT on Pluto and ran into Real America's Voice, and it's pretty slick No, it's I'm not saying it isn't it is any good. It just has no I don't think it has any reach I don't think people are sure Oh reach but they get money and They have an outlet on rumble so that's where I pick this up and rumble Even worse than Pluto and and I like this because you know she has credentials she's been reporting from war zones real real violent wars the ones we know of for over three decades
CHAPTER 18 / 63Discussion
Media Narratives and the History of Nazism in Ukraine
Lara Logan provided a historical overview of Nazism in Ukraine, claiming that U.S. intelligence agencies gave immunity to certain Ukrainian Nazi collaborators after World War II. She linked this history to the 2014 "color revolution" and the subsequent business entanglements of American political families, including the Bidens, Pelosis, and Romneys. Logan asserted that the media is "coralling" the public into a binary choice between hating Putin and loving Ukraine, ignoring complex historical realities.
49:52 and she has a lot of information, and sources, and friends. And her family is related to defense intelligence agencies so she knows stuff! When it comes to Nazis in historical knowledge... She has heard story down! I think it's important because this is the one thing that irks me when people tell me they're never listening to NOA Agenda again because we're propagating some bull crap about Nazis in Ukraine That's ridiculous Because of course we believe that I was fairly well known no We sooner believe same people's go to the essence if you want to really back it up and be a water carrier for Putin once You do this say hey Remember World War two that with the big one in World War two mm-hmm Whose side was Russia on there on our side whose side was the Ukraine on? They're on Germany site. Uh-huh uh-huh, you see
50:47 But this is hard for people to believe who don't know their history or have perhaps been instructed incorrectly. And certainly in the United States, people have a much easier time believing that there were Nazis in Charlottesville Virginia than there are in Ukraine because it's Ukraine! Come on blue and yellow forever! But this has not gone as well as Vladimir Putin expected I don't buy it for a second Edd, I'll be honest with you Have you been coaching her? I'm sorry, you had to start it over. I was... Oh! I didn't catch it that way. Listen how she starts But this has not gone as well as Vladimir Putin expected? I don't buy it for a second Ed, and I'll be honest with you. Yeah! I really think that there's so much misinformation We've never really seen anything like it. I mean, I've been covering wars now for 35 years And I have never seen people with their nails done in the Ukrainian flag, right? I mean we're being corralled into this box
51:42 where we either have to hate Vladimir Putin and believe everything evil that said about him, and love Ukraine. And there's no in between you see such dishonesty when it comes to the history of Ukraine You see dishonesty when it comes to the Azov battalion which is funded by the US and NATO I mean you can find pictures of them online holding up the NATO flag and the swastika at The same time their own emblem contains the black son of the occult, which was a Nazi SS emblem. And it also contains the sideways lightning insignia of the SS. I mean this is on throughout the Ukrainian military you can see that black sign of the occult on their body armor even on the female soldiers who are paraded in front of the world as being such an example of Ukraine's independence and spirit and nobility even there wearing the black sun of the occult
52:34 And you know, we want the White House wants to believe. Well this doesn't matter it's just a small number of troops it's not true. The Azov battalion has been murdering its way through eastern Ukraine. Yeah we don't want to admit this was why Crimea voted for independence. This is why I wanted to be with Russia Sure. The U.R.? actually gave immunity from prosecution to the Nazis of Ukraine, from the Nuremberg trials. So there's a long history of the United States and our intelligence agencies funding and arming Nazis in Ukraine. These are not like neo-Nazi groups that sprung up these are the actual Nazis from the Second World War who if you go back to the Nuremberg trials said that they were planning for 1000 year right
53:35 And so you have to really wonder as you look at this, when you know that the CIA sponsored the color revolution in Ukraine in 2013 and 14. That they selected Ukraine's leaders go to Victoria Nuland leaked phone conversation where she and the US ambassador are deciding who can lead Ukraine? I mean there is much interference here as you could possibly imagine before it even gets to Hunter Biden, Nancy Pelosi, John Kerry and Mitt Romney. And all of their children... Wait this last bit is good because I think Ed's supposed to interrupt her and he's failing but listen where she goes at this last bit here. There isn't much interference yet as you could possibly imagine before it even gets to Hunter Biden, Nancy Pelosi, John Kerry and Mitt Romney and all of their children who are employed who earn millions from Ukrainian gas companies
CHAPTER 19 / 63Discussion
Ihor Kolomoisky and the Production of the Zelenskyy Presidency
Ihor Kolomoisky, a powerful Ukrainian oligarch and owner of Burisma, is identified as the key figure who financed Volodymyr Zelenskyy's rise to power. Kolomoisky's media empire produced the television show where Zelenskyy played a fictional president before running for the office in reality. The discussion noted that Zelenskyy's actual administration is staffed heavily by writers and directors from his former production company, treating the war effort as a high-stakes media production.
54:27 Yeah, it's John. I'm telling you there is so much nastiness and corruption and just And everyone has their hands in it this they cannot allow this They can't allow any whatever's and you know what my conspiracy brother from another mother Mo said yesterday to me Says could this be another like operation paperclip where they're extracting people now the Nazis like the original the original version? Yeah, I don't think so There's definitely some entanglements with higher-ups like Romney. How about President Biden? And Biden, and Hunter Biden... Some entanglements! Some entanglements. Some entanglements and the New York Times is finally after over a year two years they finally decided to acknowledge the Biden laptops
55:26 It's going to unravel, but... Well here is the name. They're shredding documents and they are going to come out of this pretty clean And I think some of that is what this is for it might be a smoke screen But the name you want to keep in mind is Ihor Kolomosky This is the oligarch who really owns everything. He owned Burisma, so he had the Bidens in his pocket. He financed the Azoff battalion and he also owned the media company that employed the current president as an actor
56:06 And if you look at the direct staff for Zelensky, it's all like a writer, director. All these people from his television shows! It is almost funny if wasn't so... If wasn't true they have an actual comedy team in there working it. Writers table everything Well, Zelensky is pretty decent. I mean he comes... He's very good! ...he plays... Well he played a president on TV? He knows what to do And he's doing a pretty good job of it Let's see how... Got all these guys My favorite thing is the clip I had where they said well there was one couple of the senators were in tears Yes yes and that guy from South Dakota has all bought-in and you have here's another clip this is Boone and this is another one these guys have bought the whole
56:55 the whole act hook line and thinker, thinker sinker soon. Soon thinker Thune is like a jerk off anyway but listen to this US Senator John Thune says the Biden administration should support a transfer of meag 29 fighter jets from Poland to Ukraine. It is the one thing President Zelensky has repeatedly asked us to do. Many of us that are at a loss as to why the administration isn't taking that step, I know they're worried about escalation but at this point any weapon system that we can provide for Ukraine that enables them to deflect the Russian attacks is something we need to do." The administration is facing backlash about its refusal to approve the transfer citing concerns Russia would see the move as a provocation
57:44 The US is sending other weapons systems into the war zone. President Joe Biden announced almost $1 billion in new military assistance today in response to Zelensky's speech. What I couldn't get a hold of, but I heard once or twice that The military or maybe intelligence has noticed that the Russians have new evasive technology and oh this means we've got to go back to the drawing board. That's where you want your cash register sound again Yeah, oh we just go well the rust the ruskies got something. We gotta go back here I can eat some money for that we gotta do some countermeasure So we have we have some lens he's doing billion dollars and you have Zelensky doing a good job acting no doubt about it Let's see how how we're doing over here in the in the land That invented Hollywood. We had the White House bring in a so-called tick tock influencers It turns out they were from an act blue
CHAPTER 20 / 63Discussion
White House Briefing for TikTok Influencers on Gas Prices
The White House held a specialized briefing for thirty TikTok influencers to provide them with the administration's narrative on rising gas prices and the war in Ukraine. Press Secretary Jen Psaki and National Security Council staff urged the creators to blame "Putin's price hike" for domestic inflation. Critics mocked the low production quality of the resulting influencer videos and the use of non-elected bureaucrats to shape public opinion through social media personalities.
58:42 sponsored group called Gen Z for freedom or some bullcrap like that. For Democrats? Right and let's, I mean so you know when you're doing a TikTok video as an influencer there's a certain style that you may have music in there, you do the jump cuts but yeah you have to look more than just cute And here's an example of one of their fine influencers. You don't even just know she looks cute and she keeps every jump cut her hair is on the different side, she's pushed it back it's over her eyes so she's doing all that right but it sucks! Why is gas so expensive? And why is the United States inflation rate at a four-time decade high I had the opportunity to ask The White House why gas down the street is $7 and here's what they said
59:29 The obvious reason we are getting out of a two-year pandemic when use goes up price goes up But the call is predominantly about Ukraine and Russia So how does that relate? Russia is one of the top three producers of oil and it is actually their number one revenue source now with Putin starting this horrific fight between Ukraine in Russia Nobody wants to work with him into international trade. So, with people being scared of war and limited resources prices are bound to go up as well. For the people who can't pay $7 for a gallon of gas there's an app called Gas Buddy that shows you the cheapest gas near you As well as link in my bio to donate to the misplaced refugees of Ukraine
1:00:09 John, I don't care who's on the right side of history. As patriots we need to bring the Curry-Dvorak consulting group to the White House and get them into shape! This is embarrassing! It was terrible...I saw that clip The, for one thing. How about the most important thing you can do which is at least make it so you can hear it? Yes! I could barely understand what she said she sounds like she's in a bucket they're using a cheap shotgun mic on no not even it's just oh man it's just the phone just the phone propped up against some books Oh okay that's wow No light ring, no he's got no light ring
1:00:49 influencers have gear. The light rings are getting them to bother me there's better ways to go how much are you watching? Every time it reflects in their eyes, you see these two giant rings in the middle of their eyes and they're going oh my god! It's an alien because light rings are no good I think you need to temper your watching You're watching too much TikTok I don't watch that, but I rarely watch TikTok. But I did see this piece because I followed the Jen Psaki, the memo of the meeting they had a big meeting and link to the No Agenda Social site of the meeting minutes of the meeting and it was Jen Psaki who are the main presenters? Jen Psaki And
1:01:28 a representative of the National Security Council, the people that actually run this country. Well they suck! They're not doing it right. They do a lot... but that's because they're not elected? No they are not professionals, just bureaucrats. They got bunch of VIN-mens. It is VIN-men running this country Or a Venman type person on the street is becoming very problematic and somebody's gonna have to think about fixing it. Oh, you use the problematic word! Ooh boy... I don't use it often do I? No you don't. Because every time I do I get slammed So here's- I have a baffling clip for ya But wait let's get back to this woman
1:02:11 She's got a nice tight or small waist which is attractive so that You're talking still about the influencer. Okay? Yes, okay Yeah, she's poorly Mike and she needs to take what does it do you know if you're gonna put these people on the air Acting classes I just like you saying let's get back to this woman Let's get back to important shit here. Let's go back to talking about her waist okay John The hair the hair flipping was fantastic She had that part down. She knows what to do. I'm looking at the nice waist, you're looking at the hair as I would expect. All right let's listen to... luckily we were able to find a clip of this from India

Meta Policy Change Allowing Calls for Violence Against Russians
Meta, the parent company of Facebook and Instagram, temporarily adjusted its hate speech policy to allow calls for violence against Russian soldiers and Vladimir Putin in certain Eastern European countries. The company also eased restrictions on praising the neo-Nazi Azov Battalion within the context of the Ukrainian defense. This move was characterized as the "weaponization of a social network" and led to Russia's decision to ban Facebook within its borders.
1:02:56 Because I've been trying to find a clip of it instead of just reading what happened. This is Facebook, the safe harbor against hate and hate speech changing the rules. Let's now shift our attention to the other big story that we are tracking on Vyond where the US tech giant Facebook has joined the bandwagon to isolate Russia Facebook has changed its policy on the violent hate speech against the Russian invaders and the statement follows a report which said that Facebook will not restrict calls for violence against Russians and Russian soldiers in some select countries. The Facebook's parent company Meta has said that political expressions that would normally violate the rules
1:03:32 will be allowed but the company has said that calls for violence against civilians will not be permitted. The report also showed that META will allow the support of Ukrainian neo-Nazi group Azov Battalion in context of Ukrainian invasion. The Azov battalion was listed as a dangerous organization by Facebook in 2016, ease and restrictions will be allowed mostly in ex Soviet republics like Poland Latvia Romania Slovakia Ukraine and even Russia But Facebook did not comment on the policy's geographic boundaries. In the meantime, Facebook has started to clamp down on Russian claims. Facebook took down the Russian post on hospital bombing in Mariupol which said that maternity house was non-operational and was used by Ukrainian army. Twitter has also removed Russia tweet claiming same. Ukraine digital minister said Kiev is seeking support from around 50 tech firms in a bid try raise awareness against Russia continued assault on Ukraine
1:04:29 Just love that hate speech against Russian soldiers and Russians is now okay. It's permitted It's funny you can find that clip because I knew about the story, but I never found a clip impossible to find a clip And I again I will give the props to Moe in this case He found the clip in India in India God yeah now it's it's just That is weaponization of a social network. There's just no other way to look at it And I'm surprised that this is... Yeah, it might account for the fact that the Facebook stock is down from 400 to 199. Hello? Facebook wake up! No no there's no favors they're doing their patriotic duty what are you talking about they're doing a great job yes our patriotic duty don't know what they're doing now you talked about in the newsletter and I'm not gonna play the whole bit but I do feel it's important not everybody has seen the idiocy of The View
CHAPTER 22 / 63Discussion
The View Discusses Investigating Tulsi Gabbard for Russian Propaganda
On ABC's The View, hosts Whoopi Goldberg and Ana Navarro suggested that Tulsi Gabbard and Tucker Carlson should be investigated by the DOJ for spreading "Russian propaganda." The discussion centered on Gabbard's comments regarding U.S.-funded biolabs in Ukraine. Commentators noted the irony of self-described liberals calling for the arrest of political dissidents, drawing parallels to the McCarthy-era Red Scare.
1:05:30 which also just needs to be discussed briefly because they're bringing about ideas that are, in my opinion completely un-American and inhumane and just dick. Dickish! Dickish! And so they're singling out this is all part of the cancellation of Russia They're singling out Tulsi Gabbard and Tucker Carlson, and they have ideas. This is Anna Navarro who is the Republican strategist she's kind of a Mitt Romney Republican and whoopi goldberg.
1:06:21 to a dictator, it should be investigated. In fact I remember when Tulsi Gabbard and I even hate that we're discussing it because I think to myself who is this woman? She's no longer in Congress she's a failed presidential candidate she only practically exists on Twitter way to go supporting other women! And the fact that were giving her oxygen is what makes her relevant now we're talking about her on Hot Topics but on the other hand how do you not call out some something that is repeating false Russian propaganda and has been brought down. They used to arrest people for doing stuff like this, if they thought you were colluding with a Russian agent if they thought you were putting out information or taking information and handing over to Russia they used to actually investigate stuff like this and I guess now there seems to be no bars and people are not being told to hate Putin
1:07:15 Putin doesn't need a reason to be hated. It's pretty much clear he started a war It is my opinion that That this is um, this is purposeful. This is putting Hollywood and all media on notice Red scare wasn't called the red scare back when we're all looking around for commies in Hollywood under your every bed Yeah And by the way when whoopie says that you it used to be illegal to take something and then give it to the Russians Yeah If you were a spy working in the CIA and you took documents and game do the Russians? Yeah, that was illegal
1:07:53 That's not what Tulsi Gabbard did. By the way, I have a different take on this when you're finished. Well my take is that they don't again they don't know their history this I believe I could be wrong that the rooting out of the commies in Hollywood is it dark pay at Black page in the history book of Hollywood isn't that deemed as like wow we really were assholes back then and we shouldn't do that or am I mistaken? No, you're not mistaken at all. I'm just musing over the use of the term black page. It's a mismetaphor of some sort! It is good right? We'll just keep it... What's your take on this? My take is the following, it's an offbeat take. Tulsi is a world global leader and she's a member of the Council on Foreign Relations and I think she's off to reservation and they're punishing her
1:08:52 Ooh, so she's really genuine. Because I know knowing she's a World Economic Forum global massager worries me. It's like you can't trust anyone who is like that and also happy to receive that award? There are number of people you basically can't trust. You can't trust them. You can't trust Rhodes Scholars. No. You can't trust the other one which is the Council on Foreign Relations Yeah Which are... Which has a lot of people These are all globalists and I think she's off the reservation and they are punishing her. That could be because if Tucker Carlson played the clip that they're critical of, and all she's doing is bitching and moaning about the bio labs it's got nothing to do with anything! No which is more of a military story which is appropriate for her yeah so there's something fishy...I've been looking at this cancellation of Russia
CHAPTER 23 / 63Discussion
Jeffrey Sonnenfeld and the Corporate Boycott of Russia
Yale Professor Jeffrey Sonnenfeld has been instrumental in shaming over 400 Western companies into suspending operations in Russia. Sonnenfeld argued on CNBC that the goal of these boycotts, including the closure of 850 McDonald's locations, is to inflict maximum economic "pain and distress" on the Russian population to force a change in leadership. This strategy is described as "de-platforming at an industrial scale," utilizing ESG and corporate governance as geopolitical weapons.
1:09:49 It kind of goes along with the theme which is, you know everyone's afraid to be honest. There's virtue signaling You're gonna get cancelled if you're not on board with it If halo media...You better not say anything positive about Putin because he started a war So if you talk about positive anyone who started a war except for our guys You are going to be investigated! You should be arrested! You should go to jail! You should be considered a Russian asset so that's the message there Why are all these companies? Why did they in such quick succession just pull out of Russia and I'm not talking about Just divestiture from Russian oil all the big oil companies. Oh, we're taking our money out We're not gonna do anything there going away But then you get Starbucks McDonald's It's like McDonalds just closed They didn't really pull out that I correct correct
1:10:39 But they closed 850 restaurants. You have to understand that's a lot no matter what country you're in McDonalds are an important part of poor communities It's where poor people and working poor work it's where many of them in their families eat, you know There's a reason why the the globalists left McDonald's and all our fast-food crap open during the lockdown They weren't going they didn't want to kill everybody just yet So as it turns out, there's a guy who is behind this. And it's not just any guy, It's a professor from Yale His name is Jeffrey Sonnefeld You've probably seen him because he has advised thousands of CEOs multiple presidents at the Yale School of Management Is this an ESG thing? A DIE thing or one of those deals All of all of the things you can imagine
1:11:39 All of them, all of the above. And what he's doing is going on CNBC, he's doing every interview he can to get this list of over 400 companies to remove their business from Russia. And the list is in the show notes, but I mean it's even Eurovision! The Eurovision Song Contest? No ban you can't participate Formula One no no no no can't participate no formula one International Olympic Committee of course we expected that all of the airlines, you know. I'll just go through it OneWeb, NetScout Netflix, Nasdaq Rolex Roku Sabre Savile Shell...I mean it goes on and on and on and this guy is out there shaming these companies into doing this including Coca-Cola PepsiCola of course had to follow up And I caught a little piece of an interview with him where they were discussing McDonald's and then we can stop whenever we want but just this guy
1:12:39 He's an operative and yes, it's the DEIA. It's the ESG. It's all this stuff that he shamed these companies into shutting down under the guise of, well look if the economy's bad then they'll vote Putin out. Let's start with McDonalds Jeffrey you say in your latest column in Fortune I think today you actually say it's disappointing that McDonald has chosen to remain in Russia why do you feel that way? In particular because if they were to pull out obviously thousands of jobs would be lost by Russians who conceivably are not responsible for the actions
1:13:16 of the autocrat who's running for president. that that western business would somehow have this effect to bring peace to the world between neighboring nations. That's just not true and McDonalds is the perfect illustration you got a few hundred of them in Ukraine that, of course, have been shut down McDonalds shut them down in Ukraine and didn't shut them down in Russia oh no amazing! And unlike the other casual dining restaurants as you pointed out David
1:14:17 They have ownership, they direct the ownership of 85% of those restaurants so they could do it. Employment? The idea of these sanctions is to put pain onto the economy! Listen to the glee he takes in bringing pain to the Russian people who work at McDonald's They have ownership, they direct ownership of 85% of those restaurants so they could do it. Employment? The idea of these sanctions is to put pain onto the economy! We're not trying to figure out how to advance the Russian economy right now It's for the general population to feel enough distress that the economy fails and the government fails That's the point of these sanctions and the point of the EGOS
CHAPTER 24 / 63Discussion
The Role of Yale and Intelligence in Economic Blockades
Jeffrey Sonnenfeld's corporate shaming campaign is compared to high-end intelligence operations, with references to his ties to the Yale establishment and the "Skull and Bones" society. Sonnenfeld cited the economic collapses of South Africa's apartheid regime and Nicolae Ceaușescu's Romania as successful precedents for his current efforts against Russia. The discussion framed him as a "CEO whisperer" acting as an operative for the broader national security apparatus.
1:15:08 I mean this guy is, he's crunking coke. Give me his name again. Jeffrey Sonnenfeldt S-O-N-N-E-F-E-L-D You want to hear a little more? S O N N F E L D This is interesting Yeah, this is de-platforming at industrial scale. You want to hear more? You know what this also is a little bit like? This reminds me of the shakedowns of the Jesse Jackson operation and the Hill Sharp deal only this is high end! It's classy it's Yale baby I can't say that Jesse Jackson and his Rainbow Coalition whatever the hell was
1:15:47 was not high-end, it was just not presented intellectually. Yeah this is presented I mean totally with laughing and everything and then he says no the point is to bring pain upon the economy you see people are just the faceless economy its not the people What is this guy's endgame? Is he just working for the CIA you think or... He's part of the system. He is, he's the CEO whisperer There's a little bit more to it. He's the CEO whisperer Oh yeah Yale John how many, Yale have you heard Yale? Yale, Yale Skull and Bones It's also skull and bones 3 2 2 Look at that nude picture
1:16:27 Well, would you not agree though that those companies have a much more significant presence on the ground in Russia? Have a more difficult decision to make where you simply think across the board. That's it You got to get out Also when you think about it The financial weaponry is what what they use these days That's what they go after Trump with legal and financial league enough for now Let's get the finance get the finance get him on his taxes finance all better this man. That's the weapons They employ if so why I I've been hearing that as you have too since the war broke out. And we've already seen the number of companies triple since Thursday and the article I have on Fortune right now, had to keep revising it because of the numbers of companies that realized
1:17:12 that as they look at the trade-offs here it's significant you have seventy more than seventy five percent of the population almost eighty percent of the population point to morning consoles overnight studies tell us that job day support these sanctions and support the embargoes and that doesn't break out by democrats or republicans are identical independence there's nothing that unifies this nation so much the blowback from employees is significant uh... from from uh... consumers in the west But also what matters is that this is the whole idea of these kind of sanctions, these economic blockades. And that's what worked in South Africa when 200 companies pulled out in South Africa in the late 1980s it made a difference and that was working hand-in-hand with government sanctions.
1:17:57 alone weren't enough, but when Nikolai Ceausescu steps down in Romania or when Eric, you know the leader of East Germany, Honecker stepped down it was because the economy failed and that's also what happened previously in Russia. That's what leads to a change of leadership is That's not number one, number two, number 20 or number 20. They need to focus right now on the peace in the world and they're protecting those employees from not suffering violence. Okay? They're actually protecting the employees from violence don't you understand they're good! Yeah this is really a dynamite CIA idea.
1:18:58 They've taken, they put it this way. Although they've been pulling this stuff for a long time. But this is well coordinated and out front it's just here now they're taking credit for Ceausescu which he did in that little thing there which is that mean you know the always... The thing about them they always discuss well you know you're gonna be doing good work for people and you're not going to get any credit we don't like to brag about our what we do but then you get a guy like this and he's sitting there bragging about what they do because he's he's an operative Yeah, but he's not you know they're supposed to the ideas. You're not supposed to be right No, I'm supposed to be giving it away believe me do a podcast believe me the guy The guy is at dinner parties like yeah, and I work with the intelligence community huh? Yeah, so this is like a giveaway and mm-hmm but
CHAPTER 25 / 63Discussion
Decertification of Russian Superyachts and Financial De-platforming
Major maritime classification societies, including Lloyd's Register and DNV, have withdrawn services from Russian-linked vessels, effectively decertifying them. This move invalidates the ships' insurance and prevents them from operating in international waters, targeting the assets of Russian oligarchs. This trend of "financial de-platforming" is seen as a precursor to similar tactics being used against domestic political dissidents in the West.
1:19:46 Did Jesse, you know I wonder how much they take when they watch a guy like Jesse Jackson or their or a sharp operate and go You know this guys are pretty good. What do you mean the CIA and FBI taught? Jesse Jackson had to blackmail we got it. We got the wrong way around Oh yeah, you're right these guys know what they're doing now there. I was Watching as they usually do on Thursday morning. I was watching the latest episode of super yacht news I saw that once. It's disgusting! So the Lloyds Register and the DNV have withdrawn services to all Russian ships so the Lloyds Register is a classification society and it's best known for the classification and certification of ships
1:20:30 and inspects and approves important components and accessories. So that's what they do, the DMV is another classification society which actually has a greater piece of the pie when it comes to Russian ships however Lloyd's is possibly the largest in the superyacht industry now what is classification? The classification allows the vessel to show through underwriters and insurance that the vessel is in good order So without the certification, the vessel has effectively been decertified which means they are no longer in compliance and therefore their insurance is invalid. You know everyone can smile and laugh haha this is happening I agree 100% This is the worst direction to take things Wait until Progressive doesn't like you And that stupid lizard
1:21:23 And they say, no I'm sorry you know it's like you don't have certification from the government or anybody so no insurance for you. No driving, no home insurance sorry no mortgage Yeah we decided to meme that but i didn't use in the last newsletter but its coming which is the girls giving their somebody credit card back saying im sorry we can take your credit card because of your political views Yeah, that's where it's headed. Yeah, but people are laughing about this mistake Yes and the financial de-platforming This is not okay! This is not okay And how strong will you be when the Yale professor comes to shut down your business? And says You know you don't want anyone to see you as a Putin lover do ya because I write for Forbes magazine I show up at CNBC, you know could be kind of nasty We are turning into Ukraine
CHAPTER 26 / 63Discussion
U.S. Military Aid and the Logistics of Weapon Distribution
Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin traveled to Europe to coordinate the rapid delivery of hundreds of millions of dollars in weaponry to Ukraine. The packages include 100 drones and thousands of anti-tank and anti-aircraft missiles. Analysts questioned the lack of visual evidence showing these weapons in use against the 40-mile Russian convoy, suggesting potential issues with distribution or the possibility of weapons being diverted to the black market.
1:22:17 Oh wow, that was a deep thought. It was a good one! Let's talk about the energy for a second this is also part of the cancellation of Russia and this is now what has been it's all Putin's fault that's why of course gas prices are up Well before we drift too far I still want to stick... I do have few clips Sure I'm sorry I did not realize I would love to stick with you I want to get back to the weapons. Okay, now i'm going to go back to the weapon sob stories because this idea that this guy comes over here or doesn't come over here but gets on zoom and nixing you know he's crying about weapons and we're just giving them whatever they want while we don't even fix the potholes on highway 80 You know with all of the comparisons John most people talk about our own border but yes you go straight for the potholes Yeah another good example Pothole first
1:23:12 Well, potholes are the ones you drive over. Yes! I hear ya. I don't drive over people coming across the border. Okay let's go to More Weapons Sob Story from NPR Oh goodness A US military official says the US is sending weapons to Ukraine at a rapid pace and will soon start shipping additional arms authorized by President Biden. CNPR's Greg Myre notes the new weapons package will include drones. President Biden says that the U.S. will send arms that Ukraine is already using effectively, such as Javelin missiles that take out Russian tanks and Stinger missiles that bring down Russian aircraft
1:23:47 The US had not been providing drones, but 100 will be included in the new package. The senior defense official declined to say when the new military aid would reach Ukraine but noted that the U.S has stepped up efforts by sending hundreds of millions of dollars of weaponry since Russia invaded three weeks ago Also, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin is in Europe urging NATO allies to provide more assistance to Ukraine as well. The weapons announcement came after an impassioned video address before members of the US... Impassioned! ...published today by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. Zelensky evoked memories of Pearl Harbor and September 11th terror attacks in calling for the U.S. to increase aid to his country
1:24:30 There it is. You wonder after the Zelensky things are over, he turns around his aides, his buddies, his directors and his friends from that same production company and they all do high five? Yeah nailed it bro! I'm sure they did. Yo Vlad nailed it. Vlad You notice the various pronunciations of his name. It's the same derivation of the same word as Vladimir, is Volodemir. But they... The pronunciation is getting more extreme with Volo-olamit. I can't even do it. Well, that was part of the Kiev meme. You gotta pronounce everything right! Remember Afghanistan? Iran and Iraq. It wasn't Iran and Iraq if you were read in it was Iran
CHAPTER 27 / 63Discussion
Biden's Long-Term Conflict Warning and the Trump Phone Call
President Biden warned Americans that the conflict in Ukraine could be a "long and difficult battle," signaling a shift toward sustained military and humanitarian aid. The discussion revisited Donald Trump's 2019 phone call with Zelenskyy, which led to his first impeachment, arguing that the National Security Council's reaction was driven by a desire to maintain control over the Ukrainian narrative. Zelenskyy is characterized as a flexible "actor" who takes instructions from whichever power provides the best deal.
1:25:18 Yeah, yeah. Okay part two of this. Oh hold on a second I should have had that queued up Well how has President Biden responded so far to this pressure to do more? Just hours after the speech president biden announced 800 million dollars in additional security assistance And he said more was coming He talked about the systems that the US would be sending long-range missiles, drones small arms all to equip the Ukraine military But he also appeared to be setting expectations for the American people that this conflict could go on for a while Here's President Biden. I want to be honest with you
1:25:59 This could be a long and difficult battle. He also said the president would be sending humanitarian aid to both those in Ukraine and the millions who fled to neighboring countries, and stressed he's still working with allies to isolate President Putin. Okay well it just like sounds like money grab to me and it sounds like this now you ever since you brought up the idea of CIA kind Maybe just we're just moving weapons over there to be redistributed elsewhere. Where are they? I see because yeah, there's all those 40 miles of tanks They could use those anti-tank things you just blow them up one at a time But I see videos of people being instructed how to use them but this is not new We've been sending stingers etc over for a while didn't we send it over during Trump as well wasn't that part of the whole phone call business
1:26:50 Yes, it was as a matter of fact. And the other thing that was interesting is that Obama refused to send him stuff Now here's the thought considering so bomb boy wait Why was Obama refusing to send himself and you know he knew something? Oh I know because they were setting stuff up and somebody wasn't cooperative Just like Joe Biden hey hey Hey You better get rid of that prosecutor not gonna give you a billion dollars Come on, man. We're a crime-ridden government organization here! Crime ridden! I had another thought and now I can't remember...
1:27:29 I'm sorry. Well, it was a...I really don't remember. Well you okay with the clip ended and you wanted me to conclude something and then I just see what was the humanitarian aid to both those in Ukraine and the millions who fled to neighboring oh yeah it's gonna say that Maybe the part of the problem with the Trump phone call is that they know, you know Zelensky is owned by this gas oligarch in Ukraine. The whole media company that he worked for maybe there was worry there That yeah This is a this isn't even better media guy Trump knows what he's doing if he could give him a different script He knows how to get actors to work for him
1:28:12 Can you think about it? Playing to ego, man. That works with those cats! Let's just step back on that for one second and just one point... What was the point of going after Trump for that phone call?! They made a big deal about it and was that same National Security Council that had with Vindman, and all these other guys. What was... It was nothing in that phone call that was anything remotely impeachable? What was the point? There must have been something we don't know about. Too buddy-buddy I think it was too buddy-buddy they're like this guy is weak because Zelensky's week he'll take instructions from anybody and Trump might give him a better deal He's an actor actors are whores
CHAPTER 28 / 63Discussion
Media Use of Propaganda Terms Like Pounding and Carpet Bombing
NPR and other news outlets have been criticized for using hyperbolic propaganda terms such as "pounding" and "carpet bombing" to describe Russian military actions. While cluster bombs have been documented, "carpet bombing" refers to the total flattening of square miles, which has not been observed in the current conflict. The segment noted that reporters often claim intense "pounding" is occurring while standing in quiet, undisturbed locations like Lviv.
1:29:00 Now that's just my version of it. Well, but you would know yes correct correct You got any more on the weapons? I get I get more other stuff But they do have this old clip I wanted to play because NPR is just so in on this it's like It's kind of pathetic uh I want you to play this one This Ukraine carpet bombing Ukraine carpet bombing Russian forces are pounding the Ukrainian port sounding people shelling its downtown as residents hide Fighting also raged in the outskirts of the capital Kiev as Ukraine accuses Moscow of targeting civilians fleeing the fighting and here's Lauren frayer has more from Western Ukraine is that in this style guide? Do you think this this incessant use of pounding?
1:29:50 It's kind of sexual. I have a column i'm going to write about these you these terms, these are all propaganda terms. Yes pounding lashing out is one of my favorites. Pounding pounding pound he's pounding. Ukraine's intelligence service says seven civilians, including women and one child were killed by Russian forces in the village of Peremoha near Kiev. In a statement the intelligence service says the victims were trying to flee but that Russian forces turned them back and they were trapped under fire NPR could not verify the incident. Russia denies targeting civilians and has accused Ukrainian fighters of taking up positions in residential areas, even hospitals but Ukraine says it's lost more civilians than soldiers in this war In a video posted to social media Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy decried what he called the carpet bombing of Ukraine and accused Russia trying to quote destroy all of us
1:30:48 Yeah, the propaganda is so heavy here. They used to turn carpet bombing in there did you hear that? Oh yeah! Carpet bombing. Now they've used supposedly they've used cluster bombs and I think that's been documented but carpet bombing is not the same That's Vietnam level shit right? That's carpet bombing We've done it in Vietnam and you and there's images of it carpet bombing is flattening an area completely And it's like taking this just beyond rubble icing. Yeah, it's Rubble izing and then you know plowing and fertilizing and growing plants there I mean It's a massive amount of bombing that takes place and it just will flatten up your square miles What that's not going on
1:31:33 Why do they use that term? They misuse the term. It's so annoying to see them cut live and every single channel does this We're going to cut to Bill, our man who's in Ukraine. Of course he is in Lviv where we had incredible bombs just hitting the capital Kiev and then you see some YouTube TikTok video to the left which some cases have been identified as actual Beirut video but okay and then the guy there it's three in the morning completely quiet and he was like well yeah I was really bad pounding
CHAPTER 29 / 63Discussion
Refugee Crisis and the Polarization of Public Sentiment
The displacement of over three million Ukrainian refugees into Europe is identified as the true tragedy of the war, though it often receives less media focus than military hardware. The discussion highlighted the extreme polarization of public sentiment, fueled by media narratives and Facebook's policy changes regarding hate speech. This environment has led to calls for the total annihilation of Russia, reflecting a dangerous level of state-sanctioned hatred.
1:32:13 It never happens when they're live. It's just noticeable remember in the if you before our show this over 15 years ago when they were doing the One of that one of those Iraq it wasn't a rock What was it was where he had to scud stud? No, this was I was before that That was that was way back Yeah That was way back it was and they have us on CNN and they had these couple different guys that that's when wolf blitzers his hair wasn't gray And they had the scud stud and he was standing outside with a helmet on, and he's ducking. He's ducking in his bombs going off. And he's ducking left and right moving that they don't have anything like that. No there's no action I mean again no action during Devorah consulting group boots on the ground now all
1:32:58 all of this propaganda and of course there is misery. They're now talking about 3 million refugees I don't know if that's true, I don't know how big this number is. That is what gets very little focus it's just you have some refugees yeah we'll send some aid to... three million people displaced moving throughout Europe I mean that is the real tragedy. And so one of our, like a listener long time listener turns out he's I think he's Ukrainian his mom was in Ukraine and and he laid into me one of those you know you're an asshole carrying water for Putin can't believe it you know your horrible personal never listen again have been with you from the beginning. This show stinks now! But when...I know he has been like daily source code days
1:33:47 And so, you know and I decided this guy's been around for a long time let me engage with him. So i emailed back and forth... Yeah talk him down! Well I wanted to see what was going on now so then it turns out his mother had to evacuate and you know as we went back and forth and he did agree about the Nazis and we kind of came closer together which is three email exchange and then we left that okay we disagree on some things but hey man we're okay and we should be able to disagree But the disagreement is where he ends by saying, the only way to solve this is to blow up and kill everything in Russia. And that's heavy ass propaganda! There are people... it's not just Putin I think that It's like the CDC is this faceless thing that does stuff and Putin does all of his other stuff. I don't think its only Putin who makes that country work Just to say let's just kill everybody, lets annihilate it
1:34:45 There's a lot of hatred. Yes, and it's encouraged on Facebook so that's probably helping now let's talk about say that yeah the level of hatred between is created by the media and I would realize these books media Yeah, I think that they don't stop and realize what they're really saying no they'll care because you know Certainly now more than ever. Sells papers, sells advertising, advertising works. Yeah military industrial complex needs... We get to sell more we have to build more bombs that people hate each other what difference does it make to me? So let's get you the energy part because that is the most interesting to me
CHAPTER 30 / 63Discussion
Energy Crisis and the Rise of Gas Theft in America
Rising fuel costs have led to a surge in sophisticated gas thefts across the United States, with thieves in Houston using modified vans with trap doors to pump thousands of gallons from underground tanks. The Biden administration has pressured countries like India to avoid purchasing discounted Russian crude oil, framing it as being on the "wrong side of history." Meanwhile, the Green New Deal is viewed by some as a policy intended to weaken the U.S. dollar by moving away from petrochemicals.
1:35:23 mainly in light of the petrodollar being killed already by the Green New Deal. I mean, if you don't have a dollar... If you're not using petrochemicals, if you're not using oil and it's priced in dollars because you're using some electrical magic source then the petrodollar doesn't make a lot of sense so the Green New Deal is already in that regard you could say unpatriotic and un-American because its intended to weaken the dollar And then we bring in this energy crisis, which I think is temporarily... We have a little bit of relief because China will not be using any energy for the next week or so because of their COVID lockdown. Coincidental!
1:36:06 But whatever you do, you better be on board with our deplatforming and cancellation of Russia. And that includes their oil suckers! There's been a report yesterday about the possibility that India could take up Russian offer of discounted crude oil What would be your message to India or any other country tempted by such an offer? Well, our message to any country continues to be that obviously abide by the sanctions but that we have put in place and recommended. I don't believe this would be violating that but also think about where you want to stand when history books are written in this moment
1:36:45 and support for the Russian leadership is support for an invasion that obviously is having a devastating impact. Another threat, you know? Oh, you want to be on the wrong side of history when the books are written which we write by the way! We write the books So this has the obvious result. Police across the country are reporting more gas thefts. Police near Houston say thieves pulled up in trucks, some containing large storage tanks and stole about $8000 in gas after somehow unlocking the tanks just days earlier a different gas station in Houston had 1000 gallons of diesel stolen from an underground tank by thieves in a van equipped with a pump
1:37:29 and a trap door. I'm telling you, we are now becoming Ukraine they wanted it. That's very Ukraine like. It's actually old Russia like too but yeah they have these uh they set up these big vans with the trapdoor at the bottom and then drive into gas station and they drive over the opening where they get where the trucks come to put the gasoline in and they pull off the little top which if you do you can see these things there are every gas station stick a hose down there and pump it out into another tank. Yeah, and then they put it back and leave in its when they do inventory say what happened to 500 gallons of gasoline? Again all these things that no one thought through you know just like mass we didn't think through the implication for children's development or comprehension skills or speech abilities
CHAPTER 31 / 63Discussion
Saudi Arabia Considers Pricing Oil in Chinese Yuan
The Wall Street Journal reported that Saudi Arabia is in active talks with Beijing to price some of its oil sales to China in yuan rather than U.S. dollars. This move would represent a significant blow to the "petrodollar" system that has underpinned global financial stability since the 1970s. The shift is seen as a response to Saudi dissatisfaction with U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East and the increasing economic influence of China.
1:38:17 No, we didn't think through any of that. We don't think through these things or is it all on purpose? That's...that would be more logical to me. It would be less logical to me considering if you look at the people who…people that run the National Security Council which runs this country they're a bunch of dumb shits No offense. And Rebecca, we mentioned the cost of oil falling what does that mean for gas prices? Oil falling! We are seeing it reflected already at the pumps overnight prices have fallen about two cents a gallon yesterday 432 today it's about 430 national average these prices are still incredibly high and GasBuddy and AAA both predict that as quickly as prices rose you're not going to see them decline as quickly but you will according to Gaspuddy in the next couple of weeks
1:39:05 See gas prices. Now do you notice something here? Remember the Tik Tok lady? Yeah, Gas Buddy is in on the game! According to Gas Buddy in the next couple of weeks see gas prices drop below $4 a gallon if oil prices stay where they are below $100 a barrel but you're also seeing the ripple effects of this and the economy elsewhere Amy overnight that last couple of days Delta has mentioned that they will be hiking prices on some of their flights because they're paying so much more for fuel. Amy? So again, I think this temporary dip in oil prices is just because China said we're shut down for a bit but the weird thing is The Wall Street Journal reported that Saudi Arabia the keystone of the petrodollar idea which was hey you Bedouin
1:40:02 camel farmers. We're gonna make you rich, all you have to do is sell it in dollars that's all we care about and will protect you with these guns and shit will kill anybody else you want by proxy You don't like Iran? Well kill people in Yemen with our advisors Saudi Arabia according to the Wall Street Journal is now considering pricing oil in yuan Yeah well isn't that kind of the end of the petrodollar this has been tried and tried and tried This is just another attempt. I can't, you wouldn't say it was the end of the petrodollar when Gaddafi came up with this crazy idea for petrol gold or whatever the hell it was? No no! It was except he got killed so we fixed it So what do we do now? We'll fix it Let me tell you how we seem to be fixing it...we seem to be discussing plea bargains for September 11th defendants to let them out That's how stupid we are
1:41:04 Instead of whatever you have to do to fix it instead of flying over and say hey see this jet. I'm gonna kick your ass This is why I think it's intentional John. There's no one as that stupid You take both sides of the argument, and when it can win its convenient to you what do you mean? I said the other day on one of the shows, well you know the public's not that stupid and yes they're stupid and he went on about how everybody is so dumb. And now everybody is so smart! I didn't say the public, I said the people running this show. Yeah but these people come from the public. Noooo that's very different- The public is different. I'm talking about... You calling me two faced? Careful Dvorak! I am not saying your two faced, I'm saying your convenience seeker
CHAPTER 32 / 63Discussion
Jake Sullivan Meets Chinese Counterpart in Italy Over Russian Aid
U.S. National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan held an intense seven-hour meeting in Rome with his Chinese counterpart, Yang Jiechi, to warn against providing military or economic aid to Russia. Reports suggest Russia requested armed drones, armored vehicles, and cash from Beijing to circumvent Western sanctions. The U.S. threatened "financial consequences" for China if they proceed with support, potentially including disconnection from the SWIFT system.
1:42:00 You seek the convenience of a change in your argument to satisfy your immediate needs. Wow! What you say, you are yourself with your head through half. I'm not that way. You said... you factually misstated that i said this about the American public. I am talking about politicians Let me just say that I think you're wrong I don't think there's, these guys don't scheme that well. I think they'd like to. I think there are schemes afoot and we've uncovered most of them but I don't think this is one of them. Okay let's see what's happening with China then. Well tonight the other big headline involves China US National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan confronted his Chinese counterpart over Putin's request for military and economic assistance. Now I will put a disclaimer out
1:42:59 The problem we have right now is that we have probably the stupidest administration that will see maybe in our lifetimes. I can't imagine it being any dumber in the future with a president who's senile and vice-president who's really in over her head and as a nervous wreck, and they're both probably on drugs of different sorts. He's stoned and he's God knows what to give him As an aside, there were some clips from the guys who produced that Ukraine thing with Oliver Stone saying that Zelensky is on coke. Yes I saw it did you get a clip? Did you get the clip of that? I didn't get to clip of it. My clips ran out...
1:43:45 Well, tonight the other big headline involves China. U.S. National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan confronted his Chinese counterpart over Putin's request of China for military and economic assistance. For more on this let's bring in CBS News Chief Foreign Affairs Correspondent and Face The Nation moderator Margaret Brennan. So Margaret I mean this would mark a dramatic escalation we know that the Russians are struggling so what do they want? Well, Nora we know the Russians have asked the Chinese for armed drones in part because they've seen how effective they can be on the battlefield. The Ukrainians are flying Turkish-made drones and they have taken out Russian tanks and that miles long convoy outside of Kiev In addition a Western official told me the Russians are seeking armored vehicles ground to air missiles logistics equipment
1:44:32 Another US ally told me the chief request from Beijing is simply for cash. Moscow is struggling due to those sanctions on their banks and the U.S believes China's actively considering going ahead with this support which is why the president's top national security adviser Jake Sullivan flew to Italy and met with his Chinese counterpart in an intense seven-hour long meeting according to the White House and he tried to persuade Beijing not to do this and warned of potential financial consequences if they do. Hold on, let's discuss this clearly first of all Jake Sullivan is the president yeah which is even more frightening. More frightening! Yeah it is frightening that guy's really creepy but he runs things
CHAPTER 33 / 63Discussion
Skepticism of Russian Military Requests from China
Analysts expressed skepticism over reports that Russia, a major global arms exporter, would need to purchase basic military equipment like armored vehicles from China. The CBS News report by Margaret Brennan is viewed by some as a "coded message" or a strategic leak intended to pressure Beijing. The choice of Italy as a meeting location is noted for its own reliance on Russian gas and its historical role as a gateway for Chinese influence in Europe.
1:45:23 But are you telling me that Russia can't build their own cars? They can't build their own anything, they have to buy stuff from China. When did this happen?! I thought Russia was a net exporter of arms...arms weaponry! Yes, yes, to friends of ours like Turkey This report doesn't make any sense Well it's CBS Evening News This, all of this is a CODED message. I don't know who it's to or why it's being done but... You mean that last bit? The last bit is a coded message you want to re-evaluate when we listen to him? Sure
1:45:59 Another US ally told me the chief request from Beijing is simply for cash. Moscow is struggling due to those sanctions on their banks and the U.S believes China's actively considering going ahead with this support which is why the president's top national security adviser Jake Sullivan flew to Italy and met with his Chinese counterpart Park in an intense seven hour long meeting according to the White House. And he tried to persuade Beijing not to do this and warned of potential financial consequences if they do, which means it will disconnect you from Swift. No, that's never going to happen. That would be that would be insane that then everything stops then we're dead overnight people will actually die I think
1:46:46 If you did a financial de-platform check. Like I said, it's a coded message and I have no idea what the whole thing means. The number 7 is involved? There is no reason to tell us this. Now hold on a second... Did this meeting take place before they shut down with this new COVID variant? I think it took place after. And why in Italy?! This is very... Well that's... Italy is where China has their European headquarters! That's why COVID kicked off there Or Italy's in on something too. Well, Italy is in on the fact that they refuse to take part in this shutdown of the banks because they need Russian gas and oil. Right. They were one of the two countries Germany and Italy were the two curiously both part of these. So what the Chinese are saying is we need oil coal gas whatever that will give you cash I mean that's what I'm hearing
1:47:46 And Abe Lincoln goes there and says, well no they'll be financial consequences. That wasn't Blinken that was... I mean what's his face? Yeah what's his face? Can't even remember his name! That guy Sullivan Jake Sullivan Jake yeah take the snake so he says no you can do that it I mean that's what it sounds like to me in seven hours what are you talking about seven hours I think China did some quantitative easing I think they printed some money yet prop up the stock market All that happened, you know. So there's just a couple things happening with it I find the COVID lockdown in China suspicious Well yes It's suspect! I don't like it because when it starts there people start to talk in Europe and then hey maybe that delegation brought it over to Europe again To Italy we can do a replay of 2019-2020 Well I find that whole report to be suspicious And CBS would be the one passing messages
1:48:56 All right, but who's it signaling to we have no I don't know on this well We have people who might be able to know and they'll let us know. Let's hope so for sure the messages gas buddy is in play With that I'd like a thank you for your currency in the morning to you The man who put the sea in the commie scare ladies and gentlemen mr.. John C Devorah In the morning to you, Mr. Adam Curry! In the morning all ships and sea boots on the ground feet in the air Subs in the water and all the dames and knights out there! In the morning to the trolls of the troll room I am very curious to see how many trolls we have in here You okay? You alright? Sounded like the pile fell over there...you okay? It did
CHAPTER 34 / 63Discussion
Senate Passes Sunshine Protection Act for Permanent Daylight Saving
The U.S. Senate unanimously passed the Sunshine Protection Act, which would make daylight saving time permanent starting in 2023. Proponents like Senator Marco Rubio argue the change will eliminate the disruption of biannual clock changes and provide more evening daylight for businesses and recreation. However, history professors note that a similar attempt in 1974 was quickly repealed after parents complained about children waiting for school buses in total darkness.
1:49:40 We've got trolls in the troll room. You can join them at trollroom dot IO we can listen to the show live as we record slash broadcast on Thursdays and Sundays and Then you too could be counted so let me Hands up scurrying away there low Low two, two five three Wow wow that's low That is low what? We have low T Well, it could be some internet issues. It could be a lot of different things. Internet issues? People at work I think that's number one. Yeah but even when they're at work... well maybe they're more more at work but last week
1:50:24 Thursday we had 2,800. I know so who knows what he's internet issues are people that decided a show stinks miss probably people who are still confused with the Time change Oh Europe of course is didn't change We don't that never changes on time in the same moment in the world have some clips you know play those because now yeah why not? We've been bitching about I have been bitching specifically about for 15 years, twice a year that the elites come in to screw up our lives and mess with our balance with this changing of the clock. And now it appears that there's enough noise out there that people want to actually do away with this in the United States. Yeah... I think it's important to discuss because I'm worried about this. I have two clips on daily savings. It's saving isn't?
1:51:24 Daylight saving, yes. Not savings but we all call it savings... normal people Daylight savings won. You know, these days the Senate is almost never united about anything unless of course you are talking about changing clocks just this past weekend we all went through that biannual ritual of changing the clock back and forth and the disruption that comes with it this past Sunday Americans had to once again change their clocks And if the House follows the lead of the United States Senate We can make it so no one anywhere has to change their clocks by making daylight saving time permanent
1:52:00 Republican Senator Marco Rubio, Democratic Senators Ed Markey and Patty Murray and the rest of their colleagues passed the Sunshine Protection Act yesterday by unanimous consent. It would make daylight saving time permanent present danger, changing clocks for Americans everywhere. Did she say queer and present danger? I swear to God that she meant to say clear but you met. She may have said queer. I didn't catch it the first time daylight saving time permanent and eliminate the clear and present danger of changing clocks for Americans everywhere Great, you might be thinking. Who doesn't want extra daylight hours after work? Well Michael O'Malley for one... Yeah I'm sort of a crank on the subject. O'Malley is a history professor at George Mason University and the author of Keeping Watch A History Of American Time One of the things that's always struck me about Daylight Savings is that it's
1:52:54 felt by people as if they're experiencing a return to nature because you're outside in the park, you know after work and it feels good. But what it really indicates is that we're completely hypnotized by the clock." O'Malley says businesses used to adjust their operating hours by the amount of available daylight But then came World War One. Daylight saving time was marketed as saving on energy, but critics say daylight saving time actually increases fuel consumption people got in their cars to use that extra hour of sun That was always pretty much nonsense the real impetus for it then and now was businesses that stood to benefit from daylight saving
CHAPTER 35 / 63Discussion
Historical Failure of Permanent Daylight Saving in 1974
During the 1974 energy crisis, the U.S. implemented year-round daylight saving time as a fuel-saving measure. The experiment was scrapped within a year due to widespread public dissatisfaction and safety concerns regarding dark winter mornings. The current legislative push is viewed as a potential "fractal" of the 1970s, repeating past policy mistakes during a period of similar economic and energy instability.
1:53:30 That is, businesses get more people shopping during that late daylight hour and have often lobbied for daylight saving time even during World War I. Yeah that's disputed but okay A lot of it is disputed this is nonsense a lot of has to do with the farmer The fact we don't know why we do it is troubling There are... Enough stories, but there's no singular story that says this is why we do this. No There's not well you might be right let's go part two the last time the US tried year-round daylight saving was in 1974
1:54:14 As most of the mainland United States goes on daylight savings time until October 1975. Again, Michael O'Malley There were objections almost right away Particularly from parents who are sending their kids out to the school bus in darkness within the year permanent daylight saving time was scrapped And now this current version of forever daylight saving isn't a done deal yet. The bill passed by the Senate still has to get through the House before it can be signed into law by President Biden Even then, it would not go into effect until next year So we still have at least one more glorious fall day when we get an extra hour of sleep Now hold on a second is this a fractal? 70's 74 energy crisis was that earlier
1:55:02 No, no 74 is right. Is this a fractal? What's going on? Well, I'm in new perspective on this now Yeah, I have a new perspective on this Now I was like you know This is probably the worst time to change something into the human balance of nature But now that they're doing this so that means it will fail I guess yeah, of course okay It'll fail but interesting hmm I never thought there's good and evil at play here with this time change something's up. I'm telling you that bells above is around the corner You're laughing at me again, bells above whatever the dude with the horns I gotta get to polarization solo lynch

No Agenda Social and the Decentralized Media Experiment
The No Agenda Social platform, a decentralized instance of Mastodon, has grown to 10,000 members as part of a broader "grand experiment" in censorship-resistant communication. The show encourages listeners to move away from legacy podcast apps toward Podcasting 2.0 platforms, which offer features like integrated transcripts and artwork. This model aims to protect the community from de-platforming by centralized tech giants.
1:55:51 Let us Yes, so we were done with the troll room. I think well Thank you the trolls that are here were very a lot of time there yes Well it was worth it come on its content and then people say hey man You hear that whole thing about daylight saving time? I said no man skip over to donation because you didn't listen this right didn't skip moron You missed all the good stuff yep That's how it goes Of course you can follow us at noagendasocial.com which is a really... Why are you laughing? Because I just opened it, because we're going to discuss the art and I just opened it. You'll laugh too when you see it! Oh, I haven't opened it yet
1:56:28 This is our grand experiment which we're incredibly proud of, noagendasocial.com We have 10 thousand members and we closed it down but we federate with anybody and everything even Mastodon Socialist Federating with us you know they once deemed us the KKK Nazi quadroons and were on the blacklist So I guess that blew over, or maybe they upgraded and something happened and they forgot to block us. But it's been really nice because there are people from all over the place... All we do is deconstruct news! Well on No Agenda Social people deconstruct a lot. There's a lot going on there. Oh yeah, I see what you mean. Yeah, there are some funny guys there. Some people, but in general there may be one report per day from somebody. It usually is our people reporting somebody else believe it or not
1:57:15 But you can follow Adam at noagendasocial.com, John C. Dvorak at noagendasocial.com from any Mastodon account it should work and join the decentralized revolutionists where all the cool kids truly are hanging out I want to thank Tante Nael for bringing us the artwork for episode 1433 titled Vodka and Diamonds which was actually almost a Hail Mary when it came to titles we had nothing We really didn't have much, but when it came to art it was kind of fun going through everything and this was the piece of Joe Biden in the Mickey Mouse hands watch face on what turns out to be The one luxury American wristwatch made in the USA which it was. The Russians are no longer allowed to buy It was deep you had to listen to the show to understand it but I thought in context of
1:58:15 of the time change, he was a good piece. Okay, I see what you... Yeah it is. There is one brand of watches this one costs about twelve thirteen hundred bucks and they are made in the USA and they are deemed luxury watches but somehow the Russians just can't keep their hands off for this thing they want to buy them so bad that we had to ban them. This watch is like 12 bucks and its made in Switzerland We had to ban them from buying our fine American timepieces Yes I see what your talking about on The artwork. Yes So worth a chuckle, let's see what else we were looking at yesterday wasn't much this was a pretty lame I think we're almost thinking of going into the evergreens. I like the the Jussie fruit Yeah, but you correctly said it was little homophobic. Yeah little lame yeah See, I still think that's funny, but I'm boomer adjacent
1:59:16 So thanks for keeping us on the path. I think we both liked Saving the Day, in fact it was between Saving the Day and... I like Saving the Day a lot! Yeah but yet we chose for Tantanile, I'm not sure. Saving the day was by Capitalist Agenda and had Kamala Harris tipping the time in The Watch Face which is also-it was a nice piece Yeah, the reason I think we went with the other one is because of the goofy arms of Biden. It had humor... Also it was a nice composition and also had that Made in USA little clip in the corner which referred to the show. I think it just had a lot going on. Well, we love all the verses! It's very minimalist but still has a lot going on
2:00:05 We love all the work that every single one of our artists does and you can be one too. That's the cool thing about it if usually you would have to have some time during the show to come up with an idea, see if you can make it into something go to noagendaartgenerator.com What's also nice is that Dreb Scott uses pretty much all the art he can find for multiple chapters in the Podcasting 2.0 space, as we call it because you should be listening to this show in a new modern podcast app not an legacy app and you can't get de-platformed from the Podcasting 2.0 apps and you get a lot of new features including all of the artwork links transcripts etc. Newpodcastapps.com

California Zephyr Observations and Florida Real Estate Trends
Observations of the California Zephyr train included a rare private rental car, sparking speculation about "elites" traveling across the country. Meanwhile, listeners reported relocating from high-tax states like New Jersey to Florida, citing skyrocketing housing prices in areas like Ponte Vedra. The discussion touched on the difficulty of remaining objective in the face of intense "fear porn" and propaganda surrounding the Ukraine conflict.

Podcasting 2.0 and the Legacy of Buzz Out Loud
A donation from a long-time listener prompted a look back at the early days of tech podcasting, specifically Molly Wood and Tom Merritt's "Buzz Out Loud" on CNET. Molly Wood's potential induction into a podcasting Hall of Fame was discussed, acknowledging her role as a pioneer in the video podcast space. The hosts contrasted these legacy media origins with the current push for decentralized Podcasting 2.0 technology.

Glenn Beck Listeners and the Mission Statement for News Deconstruction
New donors from Washington D.C. reported discovering the show through Glenn Beck's podcast, seeking an alternative to the "thick war propaganda" in the capital. The hosts emphasized their mission statement of deconstructing news narratives rather than providing traditional reporting. This approach is intended to help listeners "wake up" to the mechanics of media manipulation without becoming "woke" in the political sense.
2:26:08 I just don't think this is what he was intending. That's not what he meant. Yeah, that one was right. Forgotten about that. Kirk Gibson is up in Leesdale, Pennsylvania $200 and he says heading to the Pittsburgh Pennsylvania NAMU tomorrow and realized I'd have to tell everyone of a total douchebag So I wanted to say, this is the way to go. Especially the guys who would go on and say, I'm a douchebag and they record it. It's not good. Bad vibes. To say thank you and provide a donation to keep my good name clear. A de-douching would make me feel fresh thanks! You've been de-douched
2:27:00 Don Igler is in Washington DC. $200, oh that's a hot bed right there! As a dedicated first-time donor of $200 living in D.C., I'm requesting a de-douching.

You are both much appreciated We thank you for that too Love & Light Dame, uh... Dame Nancy of the Confused and Sam Bruno.

Canadian Trucker Protest Mandates and International Travel Restrictions
A report from British Columbia clarified that the ongoing trucker protests are driven by mandates requiring unvaccinated drivers to test and quarantine every time they cross the border. While many domestic mandates are dropping, international travel restrictions for non-residents remain in place across the U.S. and EU. The segment criticized the lack of media coverage regarding these persistent barriers to international commerce and movement.
2:29:22 on our list today, which is a good list I have to say. Yeah and Langley BC at $200 this is all you get for $200 Canadian. I guess it got bumped up yikes we are now up to three or more Barons in the province of B.C., time to get...time to me...time to is what says time to me move on Time to me move on to Viscount even though it's hard to give up the totally awesome Baron of BC title. Too bad you can pass on the Viscount and just stay Baron of BC, too bad our country is led by a tyrannical W-E-F moron
2:30:02 John, for your information the reason that the truckers are protesting on both sides of the border is that for the unvaccinated they have to test and quarantine every time they cross the border. Not possible to make a living when you are parked most of the time as a lot of the trucks are owner-operated They cannot just hand over their rig to somebody else across the border and deliver 20% of Canadian drivers and 40 percent of us drivers are not vaccinated An unvaccinated Canadian is not illegally, is not legally... Boink. Hold on. Allowed to leave the country by- Okay guys sorry it was closed. Allowed to leave the country by airboat or train. Peerage map update please as I'm the only one listed cheers no jingles just some freedom karma we could use it. Freedom karma?
2:30:57 I don't think we have to. We have actual freedom? I think all karma is freedom karma, isn't it? It should be! I just wonder if we had... Maybe we have um... We had some kind of... Freedom!!! No like that's sacrilegious so can't do that You've got... Karma There you go That could be That works Yes this is ridiculous and must end The uh You still cannot come into the United States as a non-resident or non-citizen without showing proof of vaccination and same goes for the EU. And they don't, there's no one talking about this and this doesn't seem to be dropped mandates dropping all over the place but this one thing for international travel is still in place gotta wonder Well we need to look into this and see why it's continuing There's no reason for it at this point
2:32:01 Thank you to our executive producers and associate executive producers. Very good list today, really appreciate that people celebrating the Irish of course Amongst other things such as the deconstruction that we provide for you twice weekly and if you'd like to also become an executive or associate executive producer Which does include the actual credit that you can use in post anywhere, and you will be the envy of all your classmates Just go here.

China's Omicron BA.2 Lockdowns and Supply Chain Concerns
China has implemented massive new lockdowns in cities like Shenzhen and Dongguan, affecting over 51 million people, in response to the Omicron BA.2 sub-variant. These "Zero-COVID" measures have raised significant concerns about further disruptions to global supply chains. Some analysts suspect the timing of these lockdowns may be strategically linked to the ongoing conflict in Ukraine or domestic economic goals.
2:32:41 I think we should do a little COVID stuff because there is some COVID stuff happening and, as alluded to earlier it's starting again in China. This morning Covid cases have now doubled in China in just one day making the biggest and most widespread increase in cases since the pandemic began in 2020 And this is the highly contagious Omicron B2 variant that is sweeping
2:33:19 The highly contagious Omicron B2. Now we've gone to sub variants of the variants with skipping names, now we're just adding a letter onto it and a number this is not within protocol this is not good. The protocol was like I've proven before is bullcrap but never was a protocol was a lie. Contagious omicron b-2 variant that are sweeping across the country these officials are cracking down, introducing new lockdowns and mass testing. In total more than 51 million people entering another lockdown the entire province of Guilin and southern cities Shenzhen and Dongguan will be closed until at least March 20th there are growing concerns these new lockdowns could disrupt supply chains
2:34:00 I'm smelling some bull crap. I mean, this war is going to end? Maybe maybe we just keep maybe we just do it a little bit longer Just maybe a little bit more. Maybe you can get something kicking up Go to March April May was always my prediction where I was gonna be totally ended and they're kind of premature me right now stretch it I think I think we're gonna have to reinstate some of these mandates, I think that's coming and the White House is all over it Yeah Of course
CHAPTER 46 / 63Discussion
White House Warns of Exhausted COVID-19 Response Funding
White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki warned that federal programs for COVID-19 testing, monoclonal antibodies, and antiviral treatments will be scaled back if Congress does not provide $22.5 billion in emergency funding. The administration claims that the lack of funding will leave the U.S. unprepared for future variants. Critics view this as a political setup to blame Republicans for any future resurgence of the virus after funding was stripped from a recent spending bill.
2:34:55 One of the, and this was so clearly set up. They like some piddly amount 20 billion dollars or something they wanted for COVID funding and that got taken out of the 1.5 trillion dollar bill I mean it literally we could have taken out a couple you know a few line items and we would have had it. So that didn't make it in, now we have to start whining about it because we need more money. And Trevor this all comes just as the White House is warning that critical pandemic response programs are now in danger of shutting down?
2:35:30 That's right, Amy. So all of these federal programs of course cost money to run and additional funding for these programs is stalled in Congress so later today we're expecting the White House to send a letter to Congress detailing their plans to scale back the COVID-19 response efforts We should be learning later today what programs what efforts are going to either scaled back or outright cut, but the White House has warned that they needed this additional funding to keep up with COVID-19 testing and antibody and antiviral treatments. Ah yes it's the testing and the anti virals in the antibody treatments I think we need did their professional
2:36:07 Peppermint Patty to explain to us exactly what that means because without this funding which I'm sure will be the Republicans or Trump's fault somehow, it's not gonna be good. Today we've outlined severe and immediate consequences that the United States will face if Congress fails to provide us with 22 point five billion dollars in emergency funding Who is this US she's talking about? Did you hear that?! I should mention it played again today we've outlined the severe and immediate consequences that the United States will face if Congress fails to provide us with twenty two point five billion dollars in a little weird is your budget is it your budget Jen you get to use that I know I'm doing it with ants here but yes with 22.5 a mouse in her pocket
2:36:57 and emergency funding to fight COVID-19. Fewer monoclonal antibodies sent to states, and inability to purchase additional treatments. fewer tests available to Americans, less surveillance for future variants and the risk of running short on vaccines. For months we have been engaging Congress about... Okay I get it oh my god how about this scenario? I'll roll it back and then I'll shut up and listen to the scenario. The scenario is the Republicans made us take this funding out of the bill so now we don't have enough to test, we don't have enough treatments test-to-treat
2:37:47 So we're going to blame everything on the Republicans. I think this is another political setup, additional treatments, fewer tests available to Americans less surveillance for future variants and a risk of running short on vaccines for months We have been engaging Congress about our needs for additional COVID response funds just to give you a few examples in January we notified Congress that responding to the unprecedented surge in cases due to would exhaust our funds Throughout February, we held briefings about the lack of funding and what the consequences would be if we didn't get additional funds. In the President's State of the Union Address, the president called for additional COVID funding and our national preparedness plan made clear that funding is needed in total senior administration officials have held more than three dozen calls and meetings with Congress at least 10 briefings to committees to communicate our needs so that we can do what Americans should expect
2:38:44 from their government, protecting them from a once in a generation pandemic. I'll finally say on this with cases rising abroad scientific and medical experts have been clear that in the next couple of months there could be increasing cases of COVID-19 here in the United States as well we talked about this a bit yesterday waiting to provide funding until we're in a worse spot but the virus will be too late We need funding now so we're prepared for whatever comes." I smell a setup because this thing is over And now they've got China locking down suspects just In general, because that's what they do for all kinds of reasons. And then we have all the I was like, I can demonstrate that this is propaganda three short clips tonight former President Barack Obama is recovering from a mild case of COVID Mr. Obama revealed on Twitter that he's had a scratchy throat but his otherwise feeling fine former First Lady Michelle Obama has tested negative The former president who is fully vaccinated and boosted is urging more Americans to get the shot even as the infection rate decline
CHAPTER 47 / 63Discussion
Barack Obama Tests Positive for COVID-19
Former President Barack Obama announced on Twitter that he tested positive for COVID-19 after experiencing a scratchy throat. Despite being fully vaccinated and boosted, Obama used the announcement to urge more Americans to get vaccinated. The segment questioned the necessity of a formal press release for a mild case of the virus, suggesting it serves as a scripted "stage" for public health messaging.
2:39:48 Hey man, I got the shot. I'm boosted. Yeah, I got it anyway but get the shot And you know why does he need to release a- Why does he have to do a press release that he- Well i got COVID! Michelle write up write a press release Is that necessary? Does everyone have to do this? I guess so Stage but that's enough too look at the stage But there's been a little change in the arrangement of who is on the stage because of the first lady's husband contracting COVID. Look at this room and what you see... Pardon? That's right, she's fine! Listen to these morons! The second lady- The first gentleman! How about that?!
2:40:42 My goodness he can't even fake who's phony sick Maybe say this the second lady and then he no, he's changed it to first gentleman. He said the first ladies husband Yeah, I know that's a beginning at the end though. He made this little flub Well, the flub was at the beginning No listen to the end Okay, hold on a second to the end stage but she's fine It's me. That's not together. The second lady, the first gentleman... Right there? Yeah! The first gentleman would uh- No he says the second lady then he said then he corrected himself to the first gentlemen right but before you called that guy though the husband of a lady camel off a lady the second lady
2:41:42 That's not a flub. That's just truth coming out. What are you talking about? She called him the second lady, oh no! ABC had to dance around it. Vice President Kamala Harris' husband Doug Emhoff says he has mild symptoms after testing positive for COVID. Harris has tested negative. Yeah okay by just ignoring the fun bit But this one has me concerned. Also ABC. and the Midwest. The CDC says between February 24th and March 10, 37% of the wastewater sites that they monitor saw the presence of COVID-19 not just increase but increased at least 100%. And those sites three in ten saw increases of at least 1000%, that is an astonishing jump
CHAPTER 48 / 63Discussion
CDC Monitors COVID-19 Increases in Wastewater Sites
The CDC reported a significant increase in COVID-19 presence at 37% of its monitored wastewater sites between late February and early March. While cases across the U.S. are currently down, officials warn that wastewater data can be a leading indicator of a spring surge driven by the BA.2 variant. However, some experts argue that wastewater is actually a lagging indicator and that high detection levels without corresponding hospitalizations suggest the pandemic phase is ending.
2:42:40 And as we all know, cases across the US have been down. Officials say this could very well mean a rise in cases through the spring it is possible it could already be happening and what's really further fueling these concerns is a relatively new variant It's called BA2 that White House officials say spreads about 30% faster than the Omicron variant They said they are watching this very closely Right now it makes up only about 10 percent of cases across the United States That number is expected to rise And we very well could get new data on the B.A. two variant and how fast it's spreading from the CDC later today, Amy. I guess Delta Airlines was so mad about the Delta variant that they made him do British Airways or something. Let's get back to that last clip if there if the wastewater the wastewater is a lagging indicator. I don't see any evidence that as leading indicator he said leading oh right. He said leading indicator. I missed no you didn't say that but
2:43:41 I'm just going by what this thing is. It's after the fact, it is... It's called a lagging indicator so if that means that everybody has had COVID or there some sort of COVID going around and nobody even has symptoms for us all asymptomatic, common cold, COVID But they're seeing it as some horrible COVID thing. This is bull crap! If it's up a thousand percent and the cases are down, what does that really tell you? It tells you that this thing is over." Do you think that they can still scare people into submission?" I wonder how much the public will put up with another round of this because they look around
2:44:23 I mean, there's a bunch of willy-nillies out there. There are these pearl graspers that are just scared of their own shadow and they're all over the place. There is no doubt about that but the public, general public is not going to put up with this." to add insult to injury. Oh, what? Mr. Jenkins! You've had your three shots and you're still alive?! Oh geez... Hey Bill, you need a fourth shot is what you need. That's right. You know Pfizer documentation adverse events and deaths during the trial be damned who cares no one reported on it you can find it on bit shoot
CHAPTER 49 / 63Discussion
Pfizer Requests Authorization for Fourth Vaccine Dose
Pfizer has submitted data to the FDA requesting emergency use authorization for a fourth dose of its COVID-19 vaccine for individuals aged 65 and older. The request is based on two sets of data from Israel suggesting that an additional booster improves protection against severe illness from the Omicron variant. This move comes as the BA.2 sub-variant begins to make up a larger percentage of new cases in the United States.
2:45:25 But Al, just go ahead. Get the fourth shot! They're recommending it. Get a fourth shot because you're not dead yet By the way and who's recommending this? The CDC?! That's not what I heard. Good morning, George this morning Pfizer calling for a fourth shot the drug maker The drug makers hey you got it looks like your drug dealer. Hey man you need more lines of coke? I'm telling ya more You need it don't listen anybody else requesting authorization for an additional shot for those people 65 and older now Pfizer's Oh two sets of data from Israel. No that's at 65 and older This is it this is the
2:46:01 This is what they've been trying to do. I mean, notice this all my life! They try it one way or another now they got this great gimmick they're using and they're trying to kill people. This is the beyond death panels targeted murder and older. Now Pfizer submitting two sets of data from Israel showing the additional shot decreased both the number of confirmed cases and severe illness, The company's CEO saying the fourth shot dramatically improves protection. The FDA will now look at this data to determine if the additional shot is needed And when? The push for this fourth shot coming as some 50 58 million Americans who are eligible to receive the vaccine still have yet to take their first. This is scientists are closely watching a sub variant of Omicron B A two, the concern, the W H O roughly estimating it may be 30% more transmissible than the original strain and currently makes up for 23% of new cases in the U S but while the percentage of B A two cases air
2:47:01 The total number of new COVID cases in the country is down. Why don't they have a Ukraine death counter on the screen like COVID? Shouldn't we be counting how many Russians we've annihilated?! Yeah, but it must have been a decision made that the numbers aren't going to be so extreme that it would be... That wouldn't be good enough. Well you know what? So people say hey COVID's killing more people than that! Well to keep this meme going although probably in not such a positive way for the pharmaceutical industry did you hear about Haley Bieber?!

Hailey Bieber Hospitalized for Stroke-Like Symptoms
Model Hailey Bieber, 25, was hospitalized after experiencing stroke-like symptoms caused by a small blood clot in her brain. While medical contributors on ABC News suggested a link to prior COVID-19 infections and cardiovascular disease, they avoided discussing potential vaccine side effects. The segment noted an increase in cardiovascular issues among young people and criticized the media for failing to ask logical questions regarding the safety of the vaccines Hailey had received.
2:47:41 Yes, yes. Haley Bieber. I posted this on the No Agenda social media. Oh you did? Yeah she's a leading indicator of this horrible affliction that is taking place amongst 20 year olds. Yeah and I put...I think it was in that post there was the story about her and it was Here's your vaccine update. Well, here is your vaccine update this morning. Haley Bieber's recovering at home from one of the scariest moments the model says she's ever been through the 25 year old describing how she experienced stroke like symptoms last Thursday and was taken to
2:48:20 detailing her medical em writing, they found I had blood clot to my brain, wh of oxygen. But my body i and I recovered completely So there are about somew strokes a year in this co 15% of them. And then th are happening in young people. So while it's not as common as if you're much older, it does happen." Haley saying the symptoms hit when she was sitting at breakfast with her husband Justin testing positive for COVID-19 a few weeks ago just after the pair were spotted at the Super Bowl Bieber forced to postpone a concert during his worldwide tour because of the virus. Thank you guys so much for coming to this justice tou
2:49:03 Over the weekend, Justin posting this photo of the power couple with the caption, can't keep this one down. Hailey reassuring her fans on Instagram she's doing well writing I'm so grateful and thankful to all the amazing doctors and nurses who took care of me thank you to everyone who has reached out with well wishes and concern for all the support and love So what really is happening? I mean this is spectacular. We're seeing so many young people with str...I mean it's clearly just a coincidence that we're seeing this now Coincidence? And joining us now is ABC News medical contributor Dr. Darian Sutton. Dr. Darian? Dr. Sutton, Haley Bieber is just 25 years old. Seems young! Is this atypical for someone that age to experience something like this? It is uncommon for someone to have a stroke under the age of 60 but it's not impossible in fact recently given the pandemic we've seen increased rates of cardiovascular disease. Oh! A recent study from The Journal Of Nature actually followed over
2:49:59 150,000 people and found that those who had a prior history of COVID-19 infections had higher rates of arrhythmia heart disease and stroke across all age groups. Yeah, and we should be clear there's no indication that COVID had anything to do with what happened to her it could be but we don't know that that's the case What are the risk factors? So there are some important risk factors to pay attention to they include a history of heart disease A history of high blood pressure Stop stop stop! Yeah, I'm stopping because i'm gonna predict what's going to happen on this clip. Okay She's going she has a good journalist she's going to because he's on a roll and he's got talent on her She's gonna say because they have to clear this up. She's gonna ask him. She's gonna ask the question Is it possible that the vaccine itself? Because she's been vaccinated Yes has caused this and she's gonna that
2:50:55 I predict that is what she's going to do. Let's find out! So there are some important risk factors to pay attention to, they include a history of heart disease, a history of high blood pressure use of all contraceptive pills and if you've had a prior stroke before it, you're at an increased risk of having one in the future. I'm sorry... What? No, there was no question how could how could you if this not even certain this comes from COVID why are we even bringing the vaccine into the conversation Well, because he... Okay. He opened the door so I could see these procedural shows on TV. He opened the door for that kind of questioning when he said COVID might cause this sort of thing and course she didn't even ask him if she's had COVID because she hasn't but she should have said that and says well if COVID didn't cause it is it possible to the vaccine itself could cause this? It would seem like a logical thing for a journalist to do
CHAPTER 51 / 63Discussion
Relocation Trends to Florida and Asset Protection Laws
A discussion on domestic migration highlighted that many people are moving from California and Texas to Florida. One cited reason is Florida's robust homestead exemption laws, which protect a primary residence from being seized during bankruptcy. While Texas is also a popular "free state" destination, Florida's lack of state income tax and the leadership of Governor Ron Desantis are seen as major draws for those "bailing out of the barrio."
2:51:51 You know what's interesting is I find more and more people publicly stating they were not vaccinated, who previously did not say that. I think they're looking for people that don't want to...I don't know And i'll tell you two people specifically Glenn Beck and Tom Woods Really? Yeah, I met Tom by the way in Austin that we had lunch together Yes. I saw the photo you were sitting at lunch with him and you and he wrote about a very nice essay About what a great guy you are! I know I'm tops. I'm the phone finger number one. He involved oral sex. Oh jeez his fiance was right there with him John please
2:52:38 Now he was in town from Michael Malice, another one of your buddies. Michael Malice? Is he another Texan? He is now! He lives in Austin. Remember... he left New York. Everybody's in Texas now although a lot of the Californians are moving from Texas to Florida. Florida is the way to go What are you talking about?! Well, it's just like Texas because there is no... For one thing you don't have Abbott. Okay? That's number one. Yeah I would agree with you. I think DeSantis would be an improvement. Yes and then the same no tax situation but the thing that people don't realize about Florida is that if you go bankrupt or you lose everything, you can't lose your house. Oh! Is that true? State law yeah In Florida oh I didn't know that
2:53:27 In Texas, we round up a posse. We rouse you right away. Oh yeah and then burn the house to the ground. Burn it to the ground! Hmm... well as Tina would say, wait until the first hurricane when they find out there's only one way out. Yes, there is only one way out that you're not gonna get in the field country that's for sure she says That is not fun and she lived in Boca for I don't know 20 years. Yeah can't be fun long time yeah No, that can't be fun I just had kind of an off-the-wall clip and, and i want to thank with some specificity the Clip Custodian who this is his 100th credited show. And just want you know how much work he's been doing 2,000 clips he has sent 1100 were played and 2600 end of show mixes if that is not some time and talent then I don't know what is
CHAPTER 52 / 63Discussion
Shrinkflation Trends in Household Goods and Food Products
"Shrinkflation" is becoming widespread as companies reduce product sizes while maintaining the same prices to offset inflation. Examples include Charmin Ultra Soft reducing sheet counts and Gatorade shrinking its bottle from 32 to 28 ounces. PepsiCo claimed the new Gatorade bottle design is "easier to grab," but consumer advocates warn that shoppers must now be more conscious of unit prices and net weights to avoid being overcharged.
2:54:25 And it's really appreciated because what he does is sit through ABC, CBS and NBC to get these god-awful clips that we deconstruct. And he has a very good knack at choosing them and I experienced this phenomenon myself yesterday. downsizing. The things you buy getting physically smaller, you're paying the same amount for less product it's called shrinkflation according to the founder of Consumer World Edgar Dwarsky more than a dozen items have shrunk in just the past three months all right so give us some examples of where we're seeing shrink flation I mean we're seeing in a lot of places including toilet paper everyday items like
2:55:04 Like Charmin UltraSoft, the MegaRolls are now not so mega. They've reduced the number of sheets from 264 to 244 which averages out to about one and a half fewer rolls per pack of 18. How many wipes is that? That's pretty dramatic to me. Well those are household items but what about food what about drinks Well, the PepsiCo for instants says that Gatorade is getting smaller. It went down from 34 or 32 ounces to 28 ounces and historically you could get these and you would know what you were getting but now it's the same height there's less inside. The parent company of Gatorade is PepsiCo
2:55:42 They're telling other media outlets that the new bottle is quote easier to grab and a little bit more expensive. This is only a matter of design. Okay, so what can con- What? Oh I was just gonna do that clip over sorry oh did we lose you? You don't have me?! No, I mean did you not hear the whole clip? You said you wanted to... No. I heard it-I thought i heard the whole clip Well its almost done Only a matter of design So what can consumers do about this? Well George we're used to being price conscious Of course but
2:56:18 Now you need to be unit price conscious and net weight conscious. You gotta go for the price per ounce and price per pound, so you have a little bit more homework to do, little bit more work to do when you go to the grocery store or your buying stuff online. You gotta look at the fine print as it were. Shrinkflation baby! Love it! Couple of things... The last time this exact same phenomenon happened to an extreme that became newsworthy think fractal 70s? Yep. Huh, exact same thing I bet you we can find a news report shrinkflation oh okay they didn't have what'd they call it was this scam would just call it corporate scam now ripoff so when we moved here I think Tina ordered a chair
CHAPTER 53 / 63Discussion
Personal Anecdotes of Shrinkflation in Furniture and Vehicles
A personal anecdote about a recently delivered bedroom chair highlighted how shrinkflation has extended to furniture, with the item arriving significantly smaller than depicted in the catalog. This phenomenon is compared to the 1970s oil crisis, which saw the downsizing of American vehicles like Cadillacs and the rise of the Ford Pinto. The segment predicted a similar shift toward smaller, more fuel-efficient vehicles or even "bug-eating" as economic pressures mount.
2:57:12 for the bedroom. Wait, let me guess and the chair's half the size? I'm telling you eight months we've waited for this chair it finally arrives and she's ordered from this company before And just look at the pictures in uh... in the catalog online they just had a mini room! An-and this chair comes out like what is that?! It's like Alice In Wonderland size A little bitty chair That's hilarious I gotta take a picture of me in it And oh yes, send it back. Well what happened was... And incite the company! The guys who brought it they're pulling out the chair and you know they set up which is really nice isn't it? It's not your white glove service but they unpacked
2:58:00 And then we're right away like wow that looks kind of small and the guy says, oh yeah we've been telling corporate for months now. He's a key point you really need to show room or something so people can see this before they buy it because I think people are saying pack it right in and take it back And I said to Tina, well let's order a new chair or something that is the right size and give me this one. It can put it in the studio and never notice it. Put it in the corner. The dog can't even put his paws up on it. Her paws up on it. It's ridiculous! So that's shrinkflation. Okay so what are the fractals? Because besides the carless Sunday which I'm hoping for... What are the fractals now we have two? What was the first one again?
2:58:48 Whatever you do pointed it out early. It was the weather or something We eat were we eating bugs in the 70s could that could that be coming? Oh, what did we have a clip but that was from the 60s and remember bugs in the seventies so much We had, I don't know we had to make a list. Well we had different vehicles of course that'll happen with the electric vehicles that's part of the fractal but you have to have fuel economic vehicles Yeah we went from regular size and there was downsizing What was the big winner car at the time? What came out of the oil crisis as the big winner Was it all Japanese stuff
2:59:27 What turned out to be was I think the SUV because when that oil crisis ended man those cars got big again Yeah, what they're big losers were like the long Cadillacs and Pontiacs and those cars. Those things were doomed the Pinto They explain we have a hey the Pinto is like two Tesla exploding cars There you go yeah Actually, you could probably put that on the list. Oh it was the petrodollar? It was the petrodollar. Was it the petrodollar or what are the three fractals? I mean like again you're catching me flat-footed here so I can't help. Okay well something to keep our eye on because... Well actually I do have one but this goes back and they've tried this and I think it was even tried in the 70's. In fact it may have been tried in the 70's. I know it was tried in the 50's and 70's. The 80's for sure
CHAPTER 54 / 63Discussion
The Return of Smell-O-Vision Technology in the Metaverse
OVR Technology in Vermont is developing "Smell-O-Vision" cartridges for virtual reality headsets, allowing users to experience scents like roses or gunsmoke in the Metaverse. This technology is a modern iteration of 1950s cinema experiments that failed due to lingering odors. Researchers claim that scent is a powerful tool for creating presence and memories in virtual environments, though critics remain skeptical of its consumer appeal.
3:00:18 Only now it's coming around again one more time This is this has to do with the stupid crap that Facebook is doing but listen to this. These are just three-parter This is the metaverse smell of vision Okay, what what fine? This broadcast outlet is this from I think there's an NPR mm-hmm I Remembered the smell a vision idea coming around the computer scene at least twice in And they're acting like, oh this is a great new idea. Here you go." At the headquarters of OVR Technology in Burlington Vermont smell is king! Co-founder and CEO Aaron Wisniewski is a perfume maker turned tech entrepreneur he shows me his company's inventions. This right here is the technology and you can see it's maybe the size of a candy bar or so... The cartridges
3:01:13 clips in. Inside the cartri manufactured at the OVR l This is an herb garden. H onto a virtual headset, w seen one looks like a mass I pull the whole device o and enter The Metaverse. A of roses appears in front It's a bit like a modern-day smellovision. Hollywoods attempt from the 50s and 60s to incorporate scent into movies, a machine would pump odors into movie theaters corresponding with the action on screen. Oh cool you get gassed in your own home
3:02:04 Yeah, I love it. So yeah this scratch and sniff we had scratch and sniff or remember that still around Oh come on who seriously uses scratch-and-sniff well scratch-and-sniff is used in if you look at a Vogue or some of the oh women's magazine? Yeah for what's not scratch-and-sniff It's open and open and rub Well, it's just scratching sniff deal but So this was like, this comes around. I don't know why it keeps coming around and but here it comes again and like if I'm gonna go into the metaverse last thing I'm going to do oh there's a row bed of roses I'm gonna bend over and sniff them bullcrap! It's not gonna happen and I'm not gonna say Oh wow which is still annoying me. Like wow this is so crazy man who could have ever thought that up?
3:02:55 Or out. Right on! Right on, here we go with part two. Pump odors into movie theaters corresponding with the action on screen like the smell of gun smoke during a shootout Smell-O-Vision never really worked that well The different smells would linger and mix together But Hollywood was onto something Judith Amores is a research fellow at Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School focused on scent and virtual reality She explains our sense of smell helps us feel fully present in a place and create memories the smell of your Grandma or like, you know the particular perfume of someone's very very powerful. It's not the same just Hey man doesn't know that's a curry Dvorak gig grandma smell
3:03:43 Who wants grandma smell or Biden? How about Biden's Biden scratch and sniff. There's more to it, I think I stopped this clip no no there's more to it there's more okay well there's a reason where I stop you I'm gonna give you a hint listen to this woman who's doing their reporting about the smell of itch I think this is one of these things where you put something in there as kind of a joke because if you listened to her carefully She talks like this because she can't breathe through her nose. She's got adenoids problems and she can't breathe through her nose. And she is the spokes lady for Smell-O-Vision? And she is doing a report on Smell-O-Vision, but she can't breathe through her nose!
CHAPTER 55 / 63Discussion
Military Applications for Virtual Reality Scent Technology
Beyond consumer entertainment, VR scent technology is being developed for military and first responder training simulations. Cartridges can reproduce "malodors" such as urine, garbage, diesel fuel, and blood to create more realistic environments for soldiers. This development is linked to the National Defense Authorization Act and the broader "war industry" goal of preparing the next generation for combat within the Metaverse.
3:02:55 Or out. Right on! Right on, here we go with part two. Pump odors into movie theaters corresponding with the action on screen like the smell of gun smoke during a shootout Smell-O-Vision never really worked that well The different smells would linger and mix together But Hollywood was onto something Judith Amores is a research fellow at Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School focused on scent and virtual reality She explains our sense of smell helps us feel fully present in a place and create memories the smell of your Grandma or like, you know the particular perfume of someone's very very powerful.

3:03:43 Who wants grandma smell or Biden? How about Biden's Biden scratch and sniff. There's more to it, I think I stopped this clip no no there's more to it there's more okay well there's a reason where I stop you I'm gonna give you a hint listen to this woman who's doing their reporting about the smell of itch I think this is one of these things where you put something in there as kind of a joke because if you listened to her carefully She talks like this because she can't breathe through her nose. She's got adenoids problems and she can't breathe through her nose. And she is the spokes lady for Smell-O-Vision? And she is doing a report on Smell-O-Vision, but she can't breathe through her nose!
3:04:26 I think those are very, very powerful. It's not the same just seeing the image." Reproducing real-world odors in a lab is a challenge. Amore says people are surprisingly good at sniffing out and dismissing artificial scents. Wow, you know we think that things are amazing at smelling. Humans really are! I mean we can smell one trillion different kinds of smells We truly have a superpower Not all the smells in a virtual reality experience Are going to be as pleasant as a rose I'm reminded of that by Sarah Sosha who develops smells for OVR She shows me some of her vials of scents
3:05:05 We have urine, garbage, diesel fuel. Diesel fuel? Diesel fuel?! Blood... dirt... feces. Okay this is a weird question but can I smell garbage? Oh derelict! I get it oil and feces and blood I'm sure that all goes into smells, but... Oh my god. Anyway play it out but this is ridiculous the fact that they even promote this is beyond me Okay, three. Oh yeah! That's garbage. Cool It's easy to laugh about these malodors as they're called but they have important applications They can be used in training simulations for soldiers or first responders The market for this virtual reality scent technology is still pretty young But the VR market as a whole is growing rapidly right now
3:06:04 Wisniewski and his team think that someday, scent is going to be just as integral to VR headsets as audio technology is to a smartphone. Oh okay... What? Wait wait wait! Just as important as audio is to a smartphone? Let's just dissect that for a second How is it going to be just as important as audio is to a smartphone when there is the smartphone, is nothing but an audio device? Well... The goggles are not just a smell device. It's a false equivalency! Oh what aboutism?! You know what caught my attention was
3:06:52 Oh, well you know it's early but this will be great for military. This is all where the money is going! This is all the money from the National Defense Authorization Act goes into these companies and I'm sure the war industry is all in on oh we're gonna fight in the metaverse the kids will sit at home on their couch and they'll operate the drone or whatever And we'll train them with smells and this is a sales job. This is not for consumers I agree that and I agree that you're gonna do that but there's also some other element You've got to at least pay some attention to, it's the element of let's see if we can make this guy sick and throw up I'm going to show my smould by donating to No Agenda Imagine all the people who could do that Oh yeah!

California Water Mismanagement and the Threat to Family Farms
A donor from the San Joaquin Valley highlighted the dire state of California agriculture due to severe water mismanagement and environmental over-regulation. The report warned that the state plans to take one million acres of farmland out of production, which could lead to widespread food shortages and a shift toward "fake meat" and lab-grown alternatives. Family farms are being forced out of business, leaving the industry to be dominated by the corporate investment class.
3:13:28 Who gave us the 333.33 donation in the morning? Thank you for the outstanding podcast, my first donation so here goes please deduce You've been de-douche'd Need health and business karma for all in the form of a terrier And number three and most important of all this needs to be discussed We need rain sticks So that yeah, let me see where it's required. Please shake it with all your might We need all the rain we can possibly get I know the location is hard to dial in but please try your best to hit The rural dos Palos fireball area of the San Joaquin yo-yo Quinn Yo-Yo keen Joaquin Joaquin there you go oh my god the san joaquin valley Yeah, so do we do this?
3:14:17 Do we do this? Yeah, I think we should because the Bay Area needs some rain too. Okay, hold on a second. You want to do how many would you want to do one two two full? I'd say since we're double teaming once over and back Okay All right We're going out to San Joaquin Valley in California Targeting the...I need it targeting...targetting the Dos Palos fire bar area here we go three two one Good shake man
3:14:57 Yeah, we haven't done that for a while. No, so South Texas get ready! There's always the back end of the stick which is nasty I am third generation to farm the ground my grandparents settled back in the early 40s right now My husband and I have many many acres of wheat dying in the field due to lack of water We are desperate for the rain to save our crops. So any rain, help prayers karma directed our way is very much appreciated the food shortages will be coming Gitmo Nation currently California grows about two-thirds of the US veggies
3:15:38 and three-fourths of the fruits and nuts, and we are the top dairy producing state in our nation. The government of California plans on putting over 1 million acres of farm ground out of food production in the coming years. Hello bugs! Hello fake meat! The complete mismanagement of our water systems dominance of environmental activists in our state bad water policy water restrictions and over regulation are putting family farms out of business left and right That's intentional. Similar to many other industries, soon the corporate investment class are going to be the only ones left in agriculture. Of course, the irony is that they care least about the environment and food they create. It makes me effing sick! But I digress... Thanks again for any help and please bring on that miracle march. Take care from Larkin H. She's a chick in case we were wondering. Just so you know John's a chick.

Knighthood Ceremony for Sir Rock Chuck of the Snake River Plain
Craig Mayring was officially knighted as "Sir Rock Chuck Knight of the Snake River Plain" following a significant contribution to the show. The ceremony included the traditional reading of the "roundtable" menu and instructions for receiving a custom signet ring and certificate of authenticity. This ritual is a cornerstone of the show's "value-for-value" culture, elevating major donors to the status of "Dames and Knights."

No Agenda Meetups in Tilburg and Manchester
Reports from recent No Agenda meetups in Tilburg, Netherlands, and Manchester, New Hampshire, described gatherings of producers for "intelligent discussion and ample laughter." These events allow listeners to meet in person and discuss world affairs outside the influence of mainstream media propaganda. The hosts emphasized that these meetups are producer-organized and essential for building a real-world community of "deconstructors."

Policy Against Leveraging Meetups for Third-Party Promotion
The hosts clarified a policy against "combination meetups" that attempt to leverage the No Agenda community for the benefit of third parties, such as radio stations or other events. They emphasized that meetups should remain focused solely on No Agenda listeners getting together. This stance is intended to prevent the community from being used as a promotional tool for outside organizations or commercial interests.
3:26:53 I should mention something. Yeah, which is that people did we had two or three examples of this and usually Mimi just takes care of it but these guys insist that you know they run it by us and who insists what? Run by combination radio station meetups and no agenda meetups. Oh, I don't know anything about this? Yeah, I didn't tell you about it. This just came up last night when she was putting the list together. And these are meetups that were designed to promote some other event and no agenda people should come in so we should be promoting it on the show. We don't
3:27:33 encourage or want these combination meetups that are something other than just people getting together. We don't like Zoom meetups are no good, meetups that are like a radio station meetup plus a No Agenda meetup... Have we ever had someone doing the radio station meet up where they wanted No Agenda there? That's what I'm talking about. Oh, I'm not unaware of this because they've been killed by Mimi usually but they've insisted running it by us and so she ran it by me and I said don't worry I'm speaking for Adam that we're not doing that kind of thing because the meetups are supposed to be for Noah Jenna listeners who are meeting up not for some promotion of something else
3:28:18 Yes, I agree. And what the...I think the point I made was we're not going to leverage our meetups for the benefit of a third party Got it What I think people are doing is saying hey this is a big thing lots of people there let's meet up while were there like a protest It can be accomplished in certain way but generally speaking its to leverage us and all I don't like that idea being leveraged so All right, we're on the non-leverage tip. No leveraging. I'm unsure of my ISO so i'll go first. I have three here's the first thanks so much for reporting and stay safe! I heard that one oh you did? Yeah, I was thinking a clip in it too Here's the next one people know what's coming nice little vocal fry and Oh brother this guy stinks

Final Sign-off and End of Show Media Mix
The episode concluded with the traditional sign-off from the Texas Hill Country and Northern Silicon Valley. The hosts selected "Thanks so much for reporting and stay safe" as the "In Search Of" (ISO) clip for the week. The show ended with a media mix produced by Sir Michael Anthony, featuring a montage of news clips, music, and deconstructed propaganda from the week's coverage.
3:29:23 Those are my offerings.

3:35:10 This is work that has been done out clearly and out in the open. The United States stands firmly with the Ukrainian people in defense of the NATO alliance. The worst part is, this hurts us as a form of national security He shamed my brother. He spoke about his arrogance, he doesn't know the struggles that my brother is encountering. He doesn't know anything that's he dealing with. He spent all of that time shaming him. Their appeal is we're against gays and we're pro-family so we are more like you than these evil Democrats
3:35:59 One of the Russian journalists said, you know there's one difference between Hitler when he was coming in and Putin. Hitler didn't kill ethnic Germans He didn't kill German speaking people. He slaughtered the very people who said he has come to liberate them The best podcast in the universe! MoFo. Dvorak dot org slash N-A Thanks so much for reporting and stay safe
