00:00 Thank you Adam, I love working with you! Opening Project Bluebeam and broadcasting live from the heart of the Texas hill country here in FEMA region number six, In The Morning everybody. I'm Adam Curry And from Northern Silicon Valley where we're opening project Bullcrap! I'm John C. Dvorak It's crackpot and buzzkill...in the morning! It's the same book it's just a different cover there is no difference between the two it's actually the playbook for the Super Bowl bull crap

00:42 Let's do that right away before we do anything. Let's just do our prediction for the Super Bowl, We do it every single year You do a based on sports analysis I do it based on Geographical political geopolitical geopolitical feelings What do you say? Well in sports analysis everybody is predicting the Eagles But I'm going to, because they've never been in this team. This team maybe the Eagles have been in Super Bowls but this team is rank amateurs and one of them's the quarterback in particular. The guy think they're gonna be nervous enough that they're gonna end up losing the game and I'm gonna give it to the Kansas City Team. Wow okay well you know I was already all-in on the city of brotherly love so it's gotta be the Eagles and I'm gonna give you a score too.

01:38 Is it going to be the same score that was in the newsletter? No, I don't think so. My score is Eagles 38 Chiefs 17. Why would you laugh at that?! It's so silly! Okay all righty then... You're giving a score you don't even like football! I love football i love the Super Bowl it's gonna be great it's gonna be a great super bowl It goes on right after the show and I wonder how many people are listening to all the bowl crap that's going on before the game. Oh, you know And then they're showing pictures and they're showing the free stuff You can do at this Super Bowl if you were there So I think Fox has the rights to this year's Super Bowl if I'm not mistaken Yes Which means it's gonna be broadcast in 4k and oh really? Yep

02:26 I didn't know that ABC or whenever they have it, they don't broadcast in 4k? Nobody broadcasts in 4K except... That I know. I think NBC does a few broadcasts in 4k and Fox does a lot of broadcasts in 4k But people like to condemn it because its faux K focus now real case, okay? Well is okay what they do Is they broadcast and high definition then they up convert and then Denmark send it out in 4k but It's not true for k How lame is that? It looks good though, but the thing that is different is that it comes over in HDR and that really brightens up the picture and helps a lot. Now if you have a set they can do it The tradition is the network that is broadcasting the Super Bowl game also has a sit-down interview with the president Is this happening this year again? No, no they refuse... Bush I'm a little bit behind on times Biden says no

03:28 That's so lame. Lame! There is a lot going on I understand you know? Before we get to Operation Blue Beam Bull Crap, did you see the note from Sir Daniels? No Came in late. Sir Daniels this is a knight of the Noah Genit Roundtable he recently took a position at Project Veritas and has an update based upon our broadcast from Thursday And he says he was able to finish the last episode and he calls bullcrap on everything we said. I want to read it! What did they say? Well, remember that we found out there's this whole fracas going on that they you know did they kick out James O'Keefe is on a week leave turns out there's a 501 c3 and a 501 C4 and I personally questioned what was going on with this some did Pfizer take issue with one of their

04:21 Were there why do I get mentioned in this condemnation then go on? Okay, Kara. Don't do that You can say anything you want but don't go on don't do the go-on here is it it's Cara yes carry I've He he sent it to me so you were copied on it But you didn't get condemned in this I know died own I get, doing work in the morning. Looking at emails like it's too late you should have sent me last night. Sir Daniels from Veritas boots on the ground he says I promise you your assessment on the 501c3 versus 501 c4 is very much wrong we don't lobby at all okay so strike! Okay wait stop He's gonna explain it You'd like to know why? Well first a question that comes immediately to mind isn't why do you have that designator which is specifically for lobbying operations Here it is

05:16 We, out of abundance of caution always put out stories that involve elections or candidates under our 501c4 entity. Lawyers have suggested this setup because when we show a political candidate in a negative light it can be interpreted as an endorsement for their opposition. Okay I stand corrected on that! We do not endorse or advocate for anything. We just report on what people say in private that contradicts what they say in public You're also honeypot gay guys, no mention of that. This setup was deemed to protect our 501c3 status makes total sense in principle we don't think we really even need the c4 at all but use it out of an abundance of caution as we state on our website I'm sorry i did not read that by the way says I am the executive director for both entities

06:09 We're talking to the top here John. The board has not capital N-O-T ousted James, everyone wants him at Project Veritas and Pfizer is not putting any pressure on us well that's three strikes I can't really say much more than that at this point as the situation is fluid, but more detail to come as I'm able to share. SIRS-TRAC." Okay! Well... That's the official word? I'd say so. So you know everyone can start— It doesn't explain anything but it's okay You know what its more official word than I've heard any podcast or any Twitter person have

06:51 And we just throw it away at the beginning of the show. It's a throwaway! It's a toss-away for us, it's a tossaway Alright, wow what an exciting time to be a podcaster. Breaking news! Breaking news tonight A US fighter jet shoots down yet another high altitude flying object this time over Canada amid the growing mystery of what was shot down over Alaska on Friday The US military searching for remnants of what it took down but they're facing nasty weather off Alaska and new questions today What was it? And who sent it?

07:27 Breaking news! Breaking news! Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announcing a US fighter jet took out an unidentified object over the Yukon, scrambling both Canadian and US aircraft after coordinating with President Biden Saturday afternoon. Just one day after another unidentified object was shot down over Alaskan waters With recovery efforts underway in the Arctic and more questions than answers about who owned it, why it was there and what capabilities that may have had. We don't have any information that would confirm a stated purpose for this object. President Biden ordered US fighter jets to take it out with a missile just hours after learning about it.

08:14 Oh man, it's so good. It's so good and I'm sure you have a couple of clips You want to share? I have all kinds actually we need to help people with this one But I think that the real issue is the lies By omission Okay Which i have documented quite excellent let's do it wait nicely including somebody who finally tells us what's what alright I got now just so you know I have aviation week which has some interesting, you know all editors of Aviation Week from their podcasts. Interesting observations about the Chinese balloon the first the OG balloon I also have the Pentagon media briefing about

08:56 about the first UFO. And then of course I have the typical mainstream bullcrap, so just letting you know... Well i've got some mainstream bullcrap but then I go to the full press conference the China of the Canadian yes defense minister Minister and she won't say what it is, and then they make a mistake okay? And tell us what it is but let's I'm still mystified by why they're trying to bullcrap us with these With this in the specifically say unidentified flying object a couple of times the Canadian said that Everybody says it. Oh by the way. I have you had your clips You just played once one of the comments was UFO

09:43 Well, I have the answer for later but let's get through all the clips first. Okay well let's go with just going to NBC, you did ABC? Let's do NBC this is NBC's overview. Tonight Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announcing a US fighter jet took out an unidentified object over the Yukon scrambling both Canadian and U.S aircraft after coordinating with President Biden Saturday afternoon Just one day after another unidentified object was shot down over Alaskan water. I think by the way this is the same report, right? NBC I think this is the same report with recovery efforts underway in the Arctic and more questions than answers about who owned it why It was there and what capabilities This is same exact visit the same clip exactly at NBC you have more of it That that was the same beginning of my clips

10:38 I'd say we played the rest. No, no it was the same moment. Let's get to hell with it so that this is international let's go to Al Jazeera UFO Canada AJ report. Another unidentified object has been shot down over North American airspace, this time over Northern Canada Canadian and American forces were tracking the cylindrical object before a USF-22 aircraft shot it down over the Yukon It comes a day after flying object was shot down over Alaska in the U.S., and week after Chinese balloon was downed off coast of North Carolina Okay so this is interesting because they have as an object, an object in a balloon

11:19 Yes, so it's correct. So the defense lady goes on and on and she gives us this explanation without saying much and then somebody comes up with a very interesting question for her mm-hmm And this is the UFO Canada Defense Lady Hammond Hall This is Lieberthal Minister David Komen Sorry, Lee go ahead. Okay? Thank you I wanted to ask this maybe a silly question But I think it's on you know didn't they get ever asked this question is there any indication that this object is a Not terrestrial is not from this world There it is. Is that really to say anything about from? You're right I have not had that question Lee so thank you for asking it there from all indications this object is

12:10 potentially similar to the one that was shot down off the coast of North Carolina, though smaller in size and cylindrical in nature. That is the information that we are working with right now but with further analysis we will know more and be able to provide you with more details. And so just to confirm, so it sounds like it potentially was another balloon? Is that what we're being led to believe here. I will refer to the item as an object at this time. I am a person that depends on facts

12:51 and will not provide opinions until I can ground them in some sort of fact. So, I'm going to wait for the reports that I will be getting relating to the analysis of the debris." Hmm... Well that's not exactly on message it supposed to be a little more a little more vague. You're kind of supposed to elude... Well, this guy, this question kind of screwed her over so meanwhile she brings on this Canadian Air Force General whose last name I believe is Ayer which is a fascinating name for an air force guy

13:31 And he seems to want to have nothing to do with any of whatever the charade is. Mm-hmm and I have a rationale for why this is going on, and he just kind of blows the whole thing up as it were...and this is the UFO Canada General spoiling everything. A successful downing of this object that we had concern about for more specifics I will ask the Chief of Defense Staff General Wayne Eyre who's with me this evening if he would like to add anything Is it named general wing air? It was way now oh that would have been even better General Wayne Eyre is with me this evening if you would like to add anything, General Eyre

14:14 No, thanks minister and David to go to the specifics of your question it was an AIM 9X missile from the F-22. Now it's important to note that the instructions that were given to the team was whoever had the first best shot uh... to take out the balloon It's also important to note that all aircraft were under the direction of Canadian NORAD region. So a Canadian general in Winnipeg was overseeing this operation, albeit in a NORAD context. Just to give you a little more Canadian flavor I have about 37 seconds

14:59 President Trudeau announcing his order to shoot down? I want you to play it, but first i have to say after that clip the woman came back on with a look of someone so irked She came back on and it looked on her, the look on her face was... Look we were I went through all this trouble of humiliating myself. To not say balloon? Do not say balloon and then you come on and say balloon! She was steaming she was ear to smoke was coming out of her ears. Well that's a good observation at a good point so that shows that all intent here is to keep it

15:41 mysterious and very UFO-like for whatever reason. I have a potential reason. Yeah, we all have thoughts but let's first listen to just President Justin Trudeau who does not look like Trudeau by the way he looks 15 or 20 years younger than i've seen him in a long time. Otux? Well his hair was definitely a little bit longer than i've seen it recently Or maybe that's just, you know... my imagination. So it can do the body double? I'm thinking something like it was- It did not seem like him! It seemed like a much younger version Yesterday NORAD confirmed that an unidentified object entered unlawfully Canadian airspace Okay so now we're definitely not saying maybe a balloon here It represented a reasonable threat to civilian aircraft So I give the order to take it down

16:38 Yeah, you ordered nothing Justin Canadian and American fighter jets were scrambled and an American f-22 successfully shot down the object Recovery teams are on the ground Hold on. You can start it again but Now that you brought in this information, there's something screwy about this guy. He sounds winded! Yes... It doesn't sound the same? He doesn't look the same? No he doesn't quite sound the same. Normally he is kind of forceful and has got a relaxed bull crap tone

17:16 that is hard to describe, but he doesn't sound like this. He's not... It sounds like he just got through a marathon! Strangely enough his teeth I mean I'm orally oriented these days because my own issues His teeth did not even look the same something about this clone is off Recovery teams are on the ground looking to find and analyze the object Yesterday afternoon I also spoke with President Biden and confirmed Together that we will continue to do everything necessary To protect the sovereignty of our airs of our shared North American airspace now notice He says a bar are shared North American airspace, so this is part. You're part of an overall just you know subtle subtleness of

18:07 North America, it's really United States Canada and Mexico. But also to do everything necessary to keep our citizens safe. North American Union you know I don't know it just felt off...I just want to mention Well doesn't sound right now that you mentioned it Didn't see this. Well, I probably did because they had in bits and pieces all over the place And okay this whole thing about keeping the balloon Well can loon so is the other one? Can we go to the Pentagon briefing you Yeah, I want to hear what...I had some of that in these NBC clips but it's Kirby right? No no no this is the Pentagon. This is a different guy so and and its good audio and it's a very different kind of briefing at the Pentagon

18:55 And the reporters were asking pretty good questions. This is from Friday, so this is after the first unidentified balloon I mean object when the pilot when the pilots approached it and they determined I understand that there was not manned How did they determine that in at that point wouldn't it be possible to at least describe what? They were looking at did it resemble a balloon or an airplane or what again will know more and Have more information once we've recovered this I We'll give credit to our pilots that they're very capable in terms of looking at an object, assessing whether or not this had the potential to be manned. At that altitude something that small very unlikely it was manned and so again no indication it was manned

19:43 presented a potential reasonable threat to civilian air traffic and we took it down. What speed was it traveling at by the way? I don't have that information Okay, so... It was floating! Let's make sure it's not a balloon Umm..I just had a couple clarifying questions You said that umm...that the pilots were able to see it That it wasn't the same shape or size as the balloon Can you say definitively it was not a balloon I don't at this point considering the fact that little different than the Canadian counterpart We're still assessing the object. I Don't want to get into characterizing it So just leave it at that oh, okay mentioned you know how fast was traveling Can you say if was traveling faster or slower than the balloon?

20:31 Don't have that information in front of me, so I don't want to make it up He doesn't have it in front of him But he knows try a couple more um did anyone try? I'd love to try. I'll try a couple more. I love this yeah Let's get back to this balloon Did anyone tried to within the administration contact their Chinese counterparts before The decision was made to shoot it down In terms of When you say the administration, if you're referring to the White House I'd have to refer you to them. The Department of Defense, to my knowledge did not again we don't know uh...the point of origin of this object And was there any effort to jam or somehow disable this object before such that it would pose less of a threat? I don't want to get into specific tactics or techniques that we may or may not use when observing these types of things

21:25 NORAD sent up aircraft to observe, to see what it was and then the ultimate decision was made based on the reasonable threat to civilian air traffic. I just want to point out that is contrary to what Trudeau clone said he said I gave the order they scrambled the jets now they were already in the air So then they were assessing what it was. He didn't give any order to shoot down, they didn't scramble anything that's all hyperbole so next question there still kind of on the balloons here the reporters are having a hard time at the Pentagon you know I like these reporters better than ones that do The White House stuff Oh much better and the answers are more succinct and less filling when i ask you about the overall program You said you've been learning a lot about this balloon program over the last couple years yet the annual China report

22:16 Doesn't have a peep about balloons in there. You spend a lot of money and effort, but no balloons Hmm you learned about see here's here's here's a reporter who has read something before he's asking the question go figure Taiwan and China's balance of power against them satellites and jets But no balloons why not so so Tony what I would say on the notice to notice that so Tony Tony Tony Tony, I know your name. So Tony what i would say is you better watch out mister on the unclassified China power report oh that was unclassified right there's going to be certain elements intelligence aspects in the unclassified version that may not be included in that particular report Oh great because balloons are so classified? Oh yeah balloons are so secretive! Yeah oh my god balloons we can't talk about... Tony let me tell you this

23:07 uh... you know the unclassified version but uh... you know if he did never know we had in the classified version report um... in terms of what's in that report and what's not a matter for again we can go back and look at that but i can tell you i can assure you that there are a lot of activities that we continue to monitor onto include this balloon program and we've learned a lot over last couple years classified versions i'd have to go back and look i do not know the answer that He just gave the answer though, I have to go back and look at that. Okay will you circle back? Yeah we'll circle back So we know that this thing was cylindrical in shape They classified it as about the size of a car Which makes you visualize like...I don't know what should we say Like a Bronco

23:55 You visualize a bronco hanging from something, that's whatever the... but that it was cylindrical. We heard that in the... They never said it was hanging from anything they just said it was good point you look good point good point It was just a cylindrical object So let's see what the... As though it was up there by itself Do you and Admiral Kirby know the shape of this new object? And if so what is sort of the reason for why you can't share its shape before it was shot down Yeah thank you so in terms of the shape I don't know I have not seen any imagery of it. I'm just telling you the verbal characteristics as it was described to me." It was probably a penis balloon, just floating around up there but whatever you do call an object! When NORAD sent the initial aircraft up to sea, was there any sort of hailing or any type of warning given typically when an aircraft makes an incursion into protected airspace? There's

24:53 lot of procedures that have to be followed before it would escalate to something like this. Okay, well this was an object right? So wasn't an aircraft per se Oh okay hey hey hey hey it's an object okay so that was the Pentagon briefing I love how CNN Jim Acosta who has his own show What he's what he launched into the ether was so much better than this Interesting. This is kind of unusual that these pilots Saw different things and that is sort of I guess adding to the mystery of all this Yeah, not even the pilots apparently were really able to identify what they saw just to take you back for a sec on Thursday

25:30 The US defense officials sent F-35 fighter jets up to try to figure out what this object was that was flying around near Alaska. Those pilots, we have learned, have given very conflicting accounts of what they actually experienced with some pilots saying that the object interfered with the plane's sensors other pilot saying that they didn't really experience that other pilot saying when they looked at the object they could identify no identifiable propulsion system and they did not know how it was actually staying in the air cruising at that altitude of about 40,000 feet. So this is all added to the Pentagon's wariness of describing in more detail what this object actually is until they can get more information through the debris that they are recovering right now Yeah no propulsion It's a balloon! Okay? It's a penis-shaped balloon I don't see... Well, it wasn't penis shaped Cylindrical

26:22 The cylindrical object was hanging from the balloon. No, there's no mention of anything hanging from anything you just said that yourself! No...no the point is is that there was something it was a balloon with something hanging from it and that's what they're trying to describe They shot the balloon the thing comes down and they're gonna go pick it up That's what happened It was another Chinese balloon They don't want to The problem with the Chinese, they just want for some reason the public is not allowed to think anymore about the Chinese balloon because the Chinese are gonna have a big meeting with Yellen and I don't want anyone to interrupt it. This is bankers They're gonna get together and they're gonna divvy up the world And they don't need any aggravation with some damn Chinese balloons anymore The Chinese balloon thing is off the table

27:07 Don't talk about it. Make it sound like a flying saucer, do anything! This is your conclusion? Is this what its about? Yeah Yellen, is that our clip here? Yellen? Yeah here's Yellen she said this has not covered too much but the last time there was a Chinese balloon they had to interrupt the meeting and maybe it wasn't important, maybe it wasn't. This meeting is important China says it welcomes US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen willingness for a visit A spokesperson for the Commerce Ministry says it's important that the two countries maintain communication, noting that Chinese Vice Premier Liu He held constructive talks with Yellen at the Davos Forum in Switzerland last month. She added that China opposes to impose unreasonable sanctions on Chinese companies in violation of market economy and international trade rules." Well that's interesting so we both have a conclusion what this is about

28:05 ultimately based on finance, is what you're saying. This is something about the finance system? Yeah, finance. Finance! All right well I love that we both... We're coming at it from different angles. I have historical receipts to say that I believe you may be right. One of the most notorious economists in finance in United States is of course Paul Krugman. Paul Krugman a favorite, in fact THE favorite economist of the former New York banker. He always loves... Krugman is really a good, he's a good economist and I think we think he's a douche and he's a doofus. We think he's a spook too! And he has everything wrong. He's wrong most of the time yeah however ten years ago as we were nearing the end of The Great Recession he had a theory on how to fix everything which of course

29:08 It kind of did happen, but not really in the way... I mean they shoved everything under the rug and now 10 years later we know that why do we have all these horrible finance things happening is because they never cleaned up what they did in 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012. And he took this theory everywhere! He used this it's a I'm just got a minute of it he used this theory on multiple shows PBS Even, well Bill Maher would be kind of a funny show but he meant it and this is him on Fareed Zakaria's show the anti-constitutionalist douche who was also on CNN. But a serious program so you don't make jokes on Zakaria's show and this is what Paul Krugman idea was to save the finance system

29:56 The first time it was in trouble. Maybe Boston's big digger was just fine after all think about World War Two right that was not that was actually negative for social product spending and yet it brought us out I mean partly because you want to put these things together if we say look, we could use some inflation Ken and I are both saying that, which is of course anathema to a lot of people in Washington but it's in fact what the basic logic says. It's very hard to get inflation in a depressed economy but if you had a program government spending plus expansionary policy by the Fed you could get that so if you think about using all these things together you could accomplish great deal. If we discovered

30:33 that space aliens were planning to attack and we needed a massive build up to counter the space alien threat. And really inflation and budget deficits took secondary place to that, this slump would be over in 18 months And then if we discovered, whoops! We made a mistake. There aren't actually any space aliens... So we need Orson Welles to watch your side? No that's uh there was a Twilight Zone episode like this in which scientists fake us an alien threat in order to achieve world peace well this time we don't need it we needed in order to get some fiscal stimulus I'm all-in on that and you have inflation but maybe he wants more I think this is the Krugman playbook Well this idea about lying about some balloons

31:17 Trying to bring space aliens into the picture isn't going to work. Well, no it's not gonna work! I'm telling you it's just that what bothers me... whether or not there is some screwball scheme afoot What bugs me the most because anyone who heard the general from Canada say we shot down a balloon Blew it up blew up the whole light, you know the whole scam But why do they continue with this and then a costas clips? Mm-hmm which really make this very suspicious. What what is the point of the news media Going in this direction instead of trying to get them to the bottom because they're told to do this obviously well that people obviously think yes but the news media that was covering that were covering the

32:00 Pentagon those clips were great because they were trying to they probably knew I don't think any of them heard the general say it was a balloon because that's pretty obscure But they'll find out about it. It's just that I don't understand what is the point of this kind of obfuscation Because some couple more balloons floating around well how about that it's gonna screw up the meetings are we or the public is gonna get all pissed off at the Chinese and you can't go meet with Yeltsin, I don't know. It just it's bothersome to me that the media and since I played the Al Jazeera clip it goes international Is all in on this? And they're just there it's just a disservice of the public What

32:46 The mainstream media is disserving the public? No! Let's listen to the BBC. The Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has said a United States military fighter jet acting on his orders has shot down a high-altitude airborne object over northwestern Canada here's our North America correspondent Peter Bowes Notice how we get the Brits and they take our guys? It's amazing. Justin Trudeau said he ordered the shooting down of an unidentified object that had violated Canadian airspace In a tweet, he confirmed that Canadian and US aircraft were scrambled And that an F-22 fighter jet successfully fired at the object

33:27 Mr Trudeau said he'd spoken with President Biden and that Canadian forces would now recover and analyze the wreckage. A military mission is also continuing on sea ice off the Alaskan town of Deadhorse to recover debris from the other unspecified airborne object shot down on Friday in a statement, The US Northern Command said that operation was moving slowly due to freezing temperatures snow and limited daylight Officials said they still had no further information to offer about the purpose and origin of the object, which was earlier said to be about the size of a small car. Peter Bowes with that report Now just coming in... Breaking! From Bloomberg China getting ready to take down an unidentified object flying over waters near the port city of Qingdao Which is home to a major naval base for the People's Liberation Army Chinese news outlet The Paper reported

34:22 So now they're everywhere! This just came out. You know what's interesting is the NBC report, I think it was in the second half of these clips. I didn't have it but Biden comes on and says that he ordered it. He specifically says he ordered it shot down! So I think the news media should go after that little contradiction. Let's see this. He orders it and you say you ordered it? I'm gonna let them hear what they have to say about that. Now did CBS break this because that's what we need to know who broke it? Who was breaking It's got to be CBS. This is such an intel operation one way or the other, if they really don't want anyone to know about it they can just get rid of it

35:06 I don't know. Let's listen to CBS. Here in Washington also the extraordinary rebuke in Congress, the House today voted unanimously 419-0 to condemn China for its newly uncovered balloon surveillance program Okay so it's a surveillance program! CBS' David Martin is at the Pentagon tonight with new details on the highly sophisticated spying equipment that was found on that balloon Now...I just want to point out that unlike Balloon 1, which I and we have some interesting aviation aviator clips to listen to. No one has seen Balloon 2 or Balloon 3 there was no video it's just in our mind it's the size of a car its cylindrical no one has seen it It got shot down you know there's no video like though in the water of the first one...it could be 100% bullshit! We don't even know if it's true would you agree with me?

36:05 Well, listening to the Canadian general who seemed like a pretty no-nonsense guy he said it was shot down specifically by a specific missile. I think it was true! I think there was a balloon and I think there was another one in Alaska...I don't think this was complete fabrication Okay let's continue with CBS As FBI evidence team started shipping pieces of the balloons wreckage off to the lab, US officials said underwater pictures... Wait. Stop this clip! You have to go back now because she says specifically would be when she introduced this guy who's always been connected. Play at beginning first part that clip again cause there is something else stop you when it gets to it They specifically said that they haven't recovered this stuff that's in bottom of ocean yet than I know of Have they?

36:52 Yeah, it's so confusing I've only seen them pulling pieces of balloon into the boat. And this is Balloon One right? This is the one we know as a balloon. Yeah this what we're talking about. We're talking about Balloon One. Spy balloons! Here in Washington also the extraordinary rebuke in Congress The House today voted unanimously 419 to 0 To condemn China for its newly uncovered balloon surveillance program Now I just want ask What is the point of Congress stopping their busy day to vote on condemning a spy balloon program. Do we really need to vote? Was anyone going, was Rand Paul gonna vote against it I mean well i don't understand why did you need a vote Of course we're again...of course we don't want China if its true We dont want Chinese spy balloons There's no reason You are absolutely correct This is bogus Yeah thank you CBS' David Martin Is at the Pentagon tonight with new details on the highly sophisticated spying equipment

37:48 that was found on that balloon. Okay, right there! Yeah highly sophisticated spying equipment How do we know it's highly... they haven't dug it? They're still dragging this stuff off the bottom of the ocean It's David Martin He CBS Why do you question it citizen As FBI evidence team started shipping pieces of the balloons No they got pieces of it Wreckage off to the lab Lab US officials said To the lab What what what lab Well then they've taken it off to the lab, how do they know it's highly sophisticated? Underwater pictures of the debris show the electronics it was carrying survived the fall from 60 thousand feet mostly intact. I haven't seen these pictures... They got pictures! They have pictures but I have not seen them. They already have a good idea what divers will find because before the balloon was shot down U-2 spy planes flew by it

38:38 taking high-resolution photos of what officials described as an array of antennas for intercepting communications. How did he get that information? He's the Pentagon man! Angry, I want to use other words... This is probably Congress But I'm not going to. You guys have to help me understand why this baby wasn't taken out long before. Oh, here we go! This is military-industrial complex time ladies and gentlemen. I am so angry there's words i could use Why didn't you guys take it out? No...you're missing the real good point Why wasn't this baby taken out? Isn't that what he said? Yeah What kind of world yeah in what world let's see

39:25 But I'm not going to. You guys have to help me understand why this baby wasn't taken out long before? Wow, that's a good catch John! What kind of baby... Why would he use that term? This baby? Like little fat man? And what baby is...? That's odd. John Tester is the Democratic Senator from Montana where the balloon hovered over a field of 150 silos housing intercontinental ballistic missiles Apparently trying to listen in on the communications used for the command and control of nuclear weapons. They don't know that, I got a problem with it. Oh please! You need a balloon to apparently listen in on the communications? Yeah put a Ford Bronco out front and put a tent on it. One of those Viper things get the cell phone...I mean come on that seems a little incredulous. Used for the command and control of nuclear weapons

40:22 Yeah, because that's all you need. You need a balloon and you can pick up the command and control of nuclear weapons. I got a problem with the Chinese balloon flying over my state much less the rest of country Soon after the balloon was spotted in the sky... What does that mean? Much less the rest of the country or maybe it just means to me something like I've got a problem with flying over my state much less Right, it's just a phrase. It's funny for a plus arresting countries don't soon after the balloon was spotted in the sky But what the heck is that? A US official said it stopped hovering over the missile field and proceeded across the rest of the country

40:58 apparently abandoning its spy mission but still communicating with controllers back in China. Wait a minute! I know, they're building the story for us right here Talk about a narrative that is unproven it's just ridiculous I love it, I love it According to US officials China has a fleet of high altitude balloons which military has used as a cheap alternative to satellites to fly over some 40 countries around the world. Oh, it's because satellites are expensive! Wait a minute... And China can't afford them? This is like best price! This is the Chinese version. Oh no, Chinese cannot afford satellite we got best price we do balloon Who are we kidding here?! Well the public

41:46 Now God now let's I want to play these clips from aviation is racist What you yeah the way you characterize it, but yeah So Aviation Week has a podcast with editors of the magazine and these are people, you know balloon pilots are also aviators so there's a lot of knowledge about balloons and how they work. And there were some very interesting questions that they raised in I've got three clips here uh...so first about this is all about the original spy balloon The, uh... There's something that we don't know anything about balloons other than you love them and I won't fly in them because they land in controlled crash. But here is something that neither of us knew. This balloon was different than all the others

42:35 we've seen before in the sense that it still used what appeared to be that superpressure pumpkin-shaped envelope, helium envelope that we've seen with other types of this kind of ultra long endurance balloon. But instead of having this translucent fabric in the envelope, they had an opaque envelop and that's pretty important because it means that they figured out a way to reflect the energy from the sun away from the balloon so that the solar energy didn't go into the helium inside the gas bag.

43:13 increase the temperature of that helium, which increases the pressure. Which then causes the balloon to explode You know that's why all the previous balloons we've seen like this have been translucent at those altitudes and for those durations so allow that solar energy to pass through the balloon and minimize the amount of heat that gets created within the helium structure itself So for them to be able to figure out how do that and keep the overall weight of that structure, that fabric structure down to a point where they can still have a useful payload. It looked like they had a pretty substantial payload is an impressive achievement that people are going to try to be figuring out especially in the high altitude balloon community

44:01 First of all, it's fun to know there's a high-altitude balloon community Wow Well that's probably the most important thing is getting the debris of the balloon itself. Yeah what that outer fabric was I think it was silk Could be Chinese and silk very The new Silk Road yes, it's in the air as well well then there was a question about the shoot down and how you would actually do this with the weapons that were used. This is a 200 foot tall balloon, any holes you put in it even with 20 millimeter rounds from an F-22 cannon... You know it's just gonna leak out and it will take several days for the balloon to actually descend into the ground So thats part of the answer we were seeking as well why didn't you just shoot the balloon and prick it? Because it would take a long time even with an F-22 missile

44:51 Or rocket as he said. It would take several days for it to deflate and float down to the ground so there's that... If they shot the balloon with them with the bullets over Montana, they could attract it all the way to the ground and picked it up intact yeah but they did because it was two days at least two days yep So that's one issue. Then you have to go to missiles, but then what do you aim at? The helium balloon itself is a void so even if the missile hits it dead on target it will just pass through and there's potential it won't even fuse and explode

45:32 So what they did of course was they aimed, it appears at the superstructure truss below the balloon where they could get a heat return or heat signature for that imaging infrared seeker on an A9X. And that was apparently enough to do it. But even then, nobody's tested an A9X at 58,000 feet from an F-22 or any other aircraft. You just don't have dogfights at that altitude. Interesting display of weaponry using this and showing how effective it is. It could have also been a sales pitch for all we know! Well they used the same missile on the one in Canada

46:12 You know as the a9x is ascending from 58,000 feet launch point up to the target somewhere between 60 and 65 thousand feet That's the that's the most detail. We've gone now where the target actually was? you know it may have to maneuver do some terminal maneuvers in the endgame not this is not uh Yeah, that the balloon does not evading and it's not running away So it's yeah It's still pretty easy Target But would it have enough authority in its control surfaces up there in that very thin air to actually hit that target. Obviously it did and they probably weren't worried too much about it at that point, but I bet that they were probably doing some pretty hardcore analysis in that three or four day period between when you know they started looking at and got the authorization to shoot it down and when they actually shoot it down because

47:04 If they missed that shot, you know just how bad that would have looked in front of the entire world with video cameras clearly showing the first shot missing or the second shot missing and maybe getting it on the third one. I just thought that was interesting because... No, that's interesting for a couple of reasons One It may have, they may have decided to shoot it down over Montana but then this public relations issue. For a while we've never been able to use that missile for this and that Oh God! Now they had all these meetings Right So by the time they got around to it was off the coast At meetings And then that explains why they miss the shoot downs over Canada and the Yukon

47:56 or I'm sorry Alaska and the Yukon were uh it they right away because they already knew the missile worked. Right, right. So they didn't have to dilly-dally? Well and there's an... that's the last clip here how interesting! NORAD also had Project Pathfinder where they went back for other reasons analyzed all their radar data and used machine learning and AI algorithms to refine how they can tell the difference on secondary and primary radars between aircraft and birds so that they don't have some of the mistakes uh in in previous years with that. That might have filtered into this as well, once they had the characteristics of this... Wait what? Yes We've been shooting birds?! No you- it was kind of mistakes if there's some poor pelican going bike and hit one of these things Hey man we're glad we could tweak the algo save the pelican! Tweak the algo In previous years with that that might have filled Let's go back a little bit that was pretty funny Uh so that they don't have some of the mistakes that they've made

48:58 in previous years with that. I guess so, they've shot some birds! Birds aren't real by the way we all know the birds aren't real. It filtered into this as well once they had the characteristics of this new balloon and were able to analyze it very specifically they could probably go back through their radar data and identify other cases very specifically So the first one probably helped them get the radar signature so they could figure out, so they could know it's a balloon. Clearly! It's a balloon people

49:35 But yeah, that is not the narrative. The narrative is questioning what it is. Flying saucer UFO? No obvious propulsion mechanism! It's magic... What flies without an obvious propulsion mechanism?! It's hard to think of one of the first things that ever was airborne in history man-made was a balloon Oh man, but it makes it exciting and I love that China now has one. It's well documented that we have a high altitude balloon program You brought something up earlier which you think is maybe the whole thing was a hoax which I don't think so But its quite possible the Chinese one IS a hoax just to balance things out Sure

50:23 So they can have their little financial meetings, divvy up the world. Who knows what's going on? I don't know what Yeltsin and this guy... Yeltsin! Yeltsin! Janet Yeltsin Of all people. It's Yellen but okay. Yeah. I'm gonna stay with Yeltsin. I'm with you. I'm with Yeltsin. I think Yeltsin is funnier. So i guess we know her name is Yellen. She said the head of a melon so she had a meeting with somebody, with a Chinese guy in Davos and I guess they were having a good time yakking. And they decided on something and they have to finish this off! So she's gonna...I don't know what's going to happen but it's very suspicious. It's fantastic! Well it's not the narrative we're getting, whatever is going on with China

51:14 Well, we'll see. I mean i love this morning's surprise Bloomberg so it was launched properly they sent their press release to the right outlets because bloomberg will you know make a difference and over print anything and so what? They don't print anything especially if has to do with climate change. I don't know well this is China over the port so...I don't know I don't know, but there was all kinds of great stuff and i love that they're gonna you know they're feeding the algos because of course that means that The answers for our defense come from chat gpt You know is it a bird? Is it a plane? Is it a balloon? I'm asking the question please chat gpt Can I be of assistance yeah do we shoot it down or not so then we have

51:58 I would say, as predicted the massive failure of this chat GPT bull crap. Which...I mean in an epic proportion it you even said that this Google Bard which you immediately said Google Barf which i love because now I use it everywhere the google barf algorithm uh bot Uh, failed! A multi-billion dollar duel is underway to be the front door of the internet. A race starts today! Microsoft announces... I love it! It's Microsoft versus Barf! Artificial intelligence will swallow conversations with its software and search engine Bing

52:38 Google raced to announce similar plans. Both tech giants trying to change the internet from a world in which we navigate between web pages, to one where interactive discussions with chatbots gives us information. For a generation, Google has been the verb for finding things online And it commands more than 90% of the search engine market. But Microsoft, thanks to its partnership with chat GPT maker OpenAI is on the attack now let's see what happened Friday after our show! It definitely is an arms race being as rockin' arms race for charts so much in the world is organized around serving Google and understanding people are searching for in Google Chinese tech giants Baidu and Alibaba also planned to debut new AI technology but

53:22 But while chatbots look authoritative, AI can make mistakes. Google's own demo for its new chatbot called Bard included a basic factual error and research has shown that AI trained to mimic human language picks up our biases. Critics worry the race to make money from AI technology is moving too fast I would love to hear a CEO saying, look we've got the research We're capable of making it but were pausing and we urge others to do so as well instead of just saying oh we're going out race the other But with billions at stake, the race is already on.

54:18 This is a joke. Hold on a second, hold on I have that clip. Okay moving onto money how are NPR's corporate underwriting revenues holding up in the recession? Yeah but of course it was Jill who gave... Well what about foundation grants Two different stories. Underwriting is down, it's down for everybody. Let's listen to the lady over here. She sounds more like a journalist because PR people are mostly journalists. Okay moving on to money how are NPRs

54:57 pausing and we urge others to do so as well instead of just saying, oh we're gonna outrace. Corporate underwriting revenues holding up in the reception. And what about foundation grants? I've gotta finish it now. Two different stories. Underwriting is down for everybody. This is the area that's most down for us. Sponsorship, underwriting, advertising call it whatever you want. It's all the same thing Now what I loved about this is so Google presents Google barf it fails at the first question that is asked It answers incorrectly Because some scientists as whole that was incorrect. The stock drops 9% a hundred billion dollar valuation wiped off That wasn't mistake 100 billion dollars in with one one Stupid question and this is the point Yeah

55:53 But you have to consider the possibility that it was meant to answer the question wrong so they could get off this track because as you pointed out, this is not good for advertising. It's not good for anything but I think that Google is much more on the ropes than we know They still spend $13 billion a quarter on traffic acquisition costs. $13 billion to get people to come to Google so they can advertise it, uh, to them. That's a lot of money! And so they're doing a version what everyone does of arbitrage... What does it cost me to get some people over here? How much can I make on the ads?!

56:41 But for some reason this chat GPT, it caught the marketing. And I think it's also partially venture capital firms, venture capitalists who are in my opinion mostly moronic they... Oh! Here I'm going to give you an example remember we had Podshow And we had Kleiner Perkins as one of our investors. At the time, one of the big shots? One of the big shots along with Sequoia but we dealt more and Ray Lane was our partner that we dealt with he had run Oracle as a president. Famous Very famous guy and so it was in fact the woman who later sued for sexual harassment what's her name

57:28 I can't remember. Oh, Elon Pao... Ellen Pao? Ellen Pao? I'm gonna say Ellen Pao. Paul! Yeah, Ellen Pao. I keep thinking of Wen. No, I think it was Ellen Pao. Yeah it was Ellen Pao. And so we're in a meeting- She's still floating around writing books and she's- So we're sitting there in the meeting and you know and we're building Pod Show at the time things were popping things were happening and along came Juiced do we remember Juiced J-O-O-S-T which was some kind of, it was from the makers of Skype Which is the only reason why they got any attention and it was some kind of you know Like this is a video streaming thing. It was very I can't even explain what it was But in the meeting! And where is it? In the meeting

58:17 Yeah, you should really make it more like juiced. It has to be like juice and we're like what are you talking about? And by the way Ron Bloom then went off and turned it into Mevio to make it look like YouTube so mistakes are made all the time everywhere Whereas podcasting is still here, I might point out. So when you get this chat GPT and you got it... Oh man! Chat GPT Microsoft invested in oh man and Elon Musk has a chat GPT look at it look at it It's doing poems its writing term papers we need to have this on Google

58:54 No worries, said Sundar Pichai who clearly knows that this is not artificial. He knows what artificial intelligence is and he knows that it's far... you know machine learning. He knows there are applications This is a parlor trick just because its typing out and you think that your talking to human this great! And then he says OK BOTH we can do that We got Google barf And it fails right now. Maybe, maybe you're right? Maybe you're right but I have story after story of Google is losing control! Google loses 100 billion dollars in market value after Chatbot incorrectly answers questions about Web Space Telescope. Apparently a fairly easy one so this may just be... These companies i've said before they do go away

59:42 Big companies, they do end and new ones come in and replace it. And Google was the darling when we're all using AltaVista That was the search engine and Google came in and they had their algo, their algorithm which was how many inbound links does a website have. And that would be deemed the top of the search results. They also did it fast because that was their main marketing is this got you in 1.2 seconds That was all part of what Google was. Yeah, their speed was a big deal but I think people... Smart Money was using AltaVista but the public in general is using Yahoo! Sure and look where that went same thing Yahoo!, AOL MySpace you can go on and on it does happen the new new thing which of course is TikTok

1:00:39 And you notice TikTok's not doing any of that. They know how it works, they have humans! They have idiots who go oh look at this food this is the restaurant you want to eat at so which we know from research is true one in two people go to TikTok before they go to Google to search for stuff So Google is in trouble And they've also overdone it with sponsored links and paid for links, and stuff they own. The whole thing of course is a giant scam! So I love that this is happening This is really funny. And they're trying to make... Ah we got a cool note from someone in the language business. I see Meg, I think is her name

1:01:31 I've been thinking about chat GPT a lot late even lately and have enjoyed your discussions and insights on the show There's a concept in linguistics called poverty of the stimulus which refers to children who acquire a language Despite having an incomplete exposure to that language That is, they never hear all the words in context and often hear ungrammatical bits of language yet they still acquire language to a high level. ChatGPT is trained on a much more complete dataset than any human. The bot can mimic language sometimes producing quote better output than a human

1:02:07 But she says, I believe the fundamentally human thing about language is that we learn to speak with a vastly inferior data set. So not until they—meaning Google, Barf and Microsoft and everyone else—train a chatbot to use language with poverty-ridden stimulus like us...I think they will be on to something." I think that's very interesting and that is probably one of the things that we notice inherently when these things write out, you know talk to you. It doesn't sound human because it's too much... The resolution of the speech is too high does that make sense?

1:02:48 Well, I can't say it makes sense but it's...I can see it being in play because that is what she claims. It means..I like it! Now how about this? I like the observation. Well, I have boots on the ground from someone in the voiceover and audiobook business How about that?! Now you're talking. I have a little boots on the ground for AI and voiceover, I'm a newer audiobook narrator it's a side gig for me three to five books a year The expense the training learning the technical side an actual time spent is intense This this is insight that I didn't have I'm very pleased that are this is hello This is no agenda show our producers are boots on the ground

1:03:30 Go read our mission statement. You can see that this is how we operate We have we have someone in every field of expertise. I'm waiting for the balloon pilots I'm waiting for the balloon pilots to show up you do yes, we probably have one Oh definitely The expense the truck has said it for an eight-hour book it can take five times the amount of time I can believe that. Narrators make money three ways, PFH which is per finished hour by royalty only or smaller PFH so per finished hour plus royalty a lot of newer narrators do royalty only to get their foot in the door my experience it's very difficult to actually make money on that i no longer do royalty-only I believe it too

1:04:17 Not to mention, I'm sure they screw you just like the record business. It's the whole thing everything in yeah of course not to mention delivering compelling storytelling and trying to do weird character voices my voiceover colleagues especially in audio books are an absolute uproar over AI Findaway Voices is a large audiobook distribution hub. Think of a dating website for authors and narrators plus the distribution to all places audio books are sold. Findaway Voices, who are now connected to Spotify has language buried in their contract that states the audio provided may be used to assist machine learning for Apple!

1:05:01 Yeah, I see where that's going. But...I think- I have a counter argument to what our friend here has to say. Okay Hello? I'm waiting for your counter-argument. Oh, I thought you were still reading from him. It doesn't matter but... So there is more but the point is Well yeah Hold on let me just finish it It's opt out of the contract so unless you know about what's going on when you read this they can use that your voice unless you opt out of the contract

1:05:37 to be trained for AI and as far as I can see also use the samples from your voice. And I have the language here, so I believe that is true." I believe yes! That would be what they're gonna do. Then they are going to deal with actors and everyone else where you have to be on top of it, you have to be ahead of this but my thinking was the following that The Voice guy can do Train his own voice into the AI and then have when he's given an assignment to read a book use the AI And then clean it up later instead of spending 40 hours on an AI out of what? What'd he say was 10 2 5 2 1 10 0 1 5 times 5 2 1 says Instead of spending 50 hours on it on a ten-hour read Just have them don't spend any time just have your phony voice do the read

1:06:28 and then go in and clean it up or you have to do little voices of stuff, do a cut-ins. And it would probably take half the amount of time until takes right now that's what I was thinking because... Okay so that works once and then it's all done? It is clear that your rights No not if its in the contract here's what has to happen I've said this on the show before I'm gonna say it again there has to be new laws written so your voice your distinctive voice is copywritten and owned by you Yeah, I'm in agreement with that but guess what? That's not going to happen fast enough. Look! We have Chinese balloons! Got no time for this we need resolutions to say we disagree with balloons This has to be done immediately. Yeah well dream on...that's not gonna happen It is gonna happen Immediately?! No Not gonna happen immediately It's gonna happen quick Nah okay Well i hope so because you're the first one to go

1:07:28 What? Why are you going to use a phony... Yes, Adam. You're... Here's me on the new No Agenda show somehow without John C. Dvorak. Yes Adam! You're totally correct! What did you say John?! I don't think your right!! That's how it's gonna be. In fact, we're not even going to be John C. Dvorak anymore! It's just gonna be my sidekick Thank you Adam I love working with you No, your good and your on the money there You're so much better than John I know his rubbers were loose So ya know its really...I can do this all day long in fact don't even come on the next show

1:08:12 So that button is on the... I made this one. Yeah, I made this one myself! And I tuned it It's not standard You know you got to use the systems There was an update so of course i was playing with it That's my- I like that guy Well thank you John This is our exit strategy Sometimes im on Z100 The guy is good isn't he? He is a good guy. I like him. You gotta give him a name Okay well how about a name Can I be of assistance? Okay, what's his name. We gotta give him a name. Well, I think Zippy comes to mind. Hey! I like it! Hi everybody! I'm Zippy! It's Zippy! Zippy the AI of the No Agenda Show Yeah alright, Zippy in the house. Alright, Zippy is now our official co-host Whenever we need information we can always call on Zippy because as we know Zippy is Always right

1:09:16 I'm glad you like it. It's just unexpected! I think that people that listen to this show have to think for themselves, podcasting is not as easy as it sounds Right thank you, thank you 40 years of experience here ladies and gentlemen combined How do you have the Zippy character just show up on the show out-of-the blue? Well...you know...Zippy how do you have your character show up on the podcast out-of-the-blue why Because it's the best podcast in the earth! There you go. It's obvious You know what is a little like this guy? No Freddy the Firehose or whatever that guy's name Hey, it's Freddy the firewall Hey I don't like that guy, its me now Zippy I think zippy is a little more upbeat and um... What's the word? Oh he's totally upbeat doesn't make him zippy Positive Yeah positive That's-it's a little more like that This is almost an audio version of Ventriloquist Yeah, yeah that's what it is

1:10:16 Is it any point Zippy can come in? Excuse me I gotta say something. Shut up for a second, Zippy! No, I got something important to say Alright what do you want to say? Uh... nothing There ya go You know this is a whole new podcast Yeah we have three people now We've got the dummy The wood headed dummy named Zippy Who are you calling a dummy?! Marty can even write bits for him Now that's what Marty is going to be good at No, we have to temper Zippy though. But thank you! We have a name. Zippy is in the bag. Now... So I think we just have to talk for a moment about the pushback—the enormous pushback on Seymour Hersh's Substack article about who blowed up the North Stream 2 pipeline. Yeah if i read it after this show And what did you think?

1:11:19 It's a very classic Seymour Hersh, uh lot of confidential sources. A little bit of embellishment I believe but not too much i think he's on the money. I think generally speaking he blew this out of the water it did is a little different than earlier thesis that it was UK or Poland, there was a couple of things. There were a number of things but this made the most sense and coming from him and it was well put together I liked it a lot I think he nailed it and got no play

1:11:58 Well, it got pushback is what I got. So first there was a press briefing at the State Department so Jake Sullivan was taking it on and the audio sounds a little thin...I'm not sure what happened why it's so thin or from the microphone that the journalist...and no Matt by the way! I was waiting for Mat to show up with a question but haven't found one of his yet This is one of the reporters who I recognize from the State Department briefing room and here's a snippet. I'm sure you're aware of the new report from Seymour Hersh, how America took out the Nord Stream pipeline and the White House's denial. Of any involvement given the longstanding opposition to the pipeline Secretary Blinken is calling its demise a tremendous opportunity and Undersecretary of State Nuland saying that U.S officials were pleased with the destruction of the pipeline especially the secretive investigation do you think the US government

1:12:57 denial of involvement is credible. I absolutely do and i repeat it here. Let me follow up on that if I might, have you or anybody else at the State Department any communication with German Norwegian ambassadors or other allies or officials on this matter? on the matter of northstream two on the matter of latest allegations uh... which give up it's really i mean you can see is not a resource to use it and they've barely it is not a with you would not be uh... in fact he wouldn't do would not be typical for us to engage allies and partners on something that is other incomplete nonsense and that's what i love this

1:13:40 So, no of course we wouldn't engage allies and other entities on something that's nonsense. This is so good, Jake. It would not be typical for us to engage allies and partners on something that is utter and complete nonsense and it should be rejected out of hand by anyone who was looking at it through a through an objective lens yes One more aspect on this one of the allegations that her makes is that it was? Taken off the CIA in order to prevent involvement oversight As a covert operation did you read the piece I

1:14:16 I'm familiar with it. One of his allegations is that it was taken off the... Rather than let this propaganda be aired in the briefing room... ...for an operation, did you read the piece? One of his allegations is that it was taken off the... Rather than let this propaganda be aired in the briefing room, but let me just say it's a fundamental misunderstanding of oversight in our US Congress. Beyond getting his facts entirely wrong as he has before and very

1:14:51 high-profile ways. It is a fundamental misunderstanding suggests that... I love the discreditation here, rather he gets things wrong in rather high profile ways he's gotten things wrong what was that? Was that The My Lai Massacre? Was that the Abu Ghraib prison torture, was that wrong in high profile ways. What did he screw up our Pulitzer Prize winning award-winning journalist, investigative journalist Seymour Hersh. What did he screw up? Oh! The Russian collusion story. That's where he really screwed up if I recall

1:15:28 Because he was wrong. It was propaganda. So, here's what they... If they had uh... Hirsch does have a bad habit and if they wanted to smear him they could do this at the age one of the agencies if they put it together they put some time into it I don't think they do I think he's an asset I think the agencies, the Intel agencies... Who's an asset? Hirsch is an asset. I think he's an asset because he does dig through stuff He does find leaks. An asset for who? I don't understand what you're saying when you say an asset. I think it's an asset for the spy agencies Because he shows them that here's where you screwed up

1:16:10 And it's like, here is another look what I found. You guys aren't very good at this because here is the whole story. Here he is again because if they wanted to smear him and get him out of the picture completely they could do it because he's known amongst journalists even who know him well, he's known for saying screwy stuff in public. He never writes anything that's inaccurate or far as he is concerned his writing is impeccable but when he goes and gives speeches... He says weird crap! ...He says stuff that he never writes up that if you documented it you could ruin him Let's listen. There is another 30 seconds left.

1:17:10 high-profile ways. It is a fundamental misunderstanding suggests that our intelligence community is not subject to oversight anyone who writes that anything who writes anything like that should not be believed by me. No, no, he wrote it was taken off of the CIA. Hold on can you back it up does this guy actually say our intelligence community is not subject to oversight? before in very High-profile ways it is a fundamental misunderstanding suggests that our intelligence community is not subject to oversight You got it, right? Yeah. Okay anything he says okay. Yeah well so that was part of the Part of the or the interesting part of the article which I haven't highlighted Was that once it's taken out of the intelligence community moved to

1:18:01 If we, the way President Biden and Victoria Nuland said that you know we know how to do it. Something changed and they did not have to report to Congress that is the... It was a tick that Technicality. And so Sullivan is saying that's not true anyone who writes that anything who writes anything like that no no it was taken off of the CIA and put under military in order to our military is also subject to rigorous over time question yes the answer is you recognize and abide by the War Powers Clause in such a situation and the War Powers Resolution? In a situation, your question is if we abide by the war powers resolution in a situation that never occurred. In any situation involving US military do you abide by the War Powers Resolution? We follow the law in every instance yes. Including the War Powers Resolution? We follow the War Powers Resolution and the broader law

1:19:00 in every instance. Now he said in the broader law so that was that I am NOT a lawyer so I can't really figure out if he's right or not but we have to be a specialist lawyer too, not just any lawyer yeah which um you know I have some qualifications yes shut up Zippy So that, yeah... it sounds squirrely what he's doing there. Sounds squirrely! It was fun to watch the- Well this is a horrible situation that Hearst has uncovered. Hearsh. Hersch. I'll get it eventually. Yeah. He's uncovered a situation that's inexcusable we can't be doing this What was cool about uh... of course I read the Dutch press actually Ancilla sent this to me

1:19:48 So RTL News, you know RTL is an entertainment organization but okay they have news. RTL News reported on this, Seymour Hersh claims to have evidence and a whistleblower and everything or inside source that the Americans blew up the pipeline that they did it And so that of course had to be stopped because they got the message late or the memo was like, oh no So they put an overlay on top of the story you know? So that you see that first before you read the story about the story and then said we need to be really careful about this story Because this guy is a known disinformation journalist What?! Wait wait! And wait for it

1:20:34 Because the last time he said anything that you know, the last time you reported on anything that was true was Watergate. They don't even have the right guy! They're thinking Woodward and Bernstein. Cyhurst didn't report on Watergate Not that I recall But that's how stupid this is Oh oh we gotta put something uh we got to discredit him uh Watergate it's an old guy oh one of those guys yeah Watergate Wow It's that stupid Now, I have a supercut just to remind us the collusion and the equal messaging from politicians in the intelligence community, communite, the high-altitude balloon community and the media. This comes from Matt Taibbi's substack

1:21:30 It's a video done by Orph and you need to see the whole... it, I mean it's almost eight minutes but you just tell me when you'd like to stop. It is, and everyone you must go watch this supercut. And you'll recognize many of the voices and oh surprise it's across the board. Its Republicans its Democrats its Fox News its CNN they were all in on the messaging There will be no longer a Nord Stream 2 we will bring into it But how would you do that? I promise you will be able to

1:22:10 Someone blew up Russia's Nord Stream pipeline. I mean, we'd have to conclude without the evidence that it is most likely Russia... Russian sabotage on its own infrastructure. It's a common sense matter. I think it's Putin's way of sending a message What Putin is saying by blowing up his pipeline Look, I can blow up a pipeline. Everyone knows that Putin did this himself It's the closest thing to a smoking gun without the direct proof Yeah I think logic and common sense will tell you that Without the evidence Russia was behind the incident We can say it for sure Who sabotaged the Nord Stream 2 pipeline? The Russians I love the certainty and i appreciate the insight. Yeah there's exactly one country on that list of suspects Brad, um and Russia would be it! It's hard to imagine others with a significant motive but uh... We will bring an end to this Nord Stream 2 will not move forward Who did it? What a mystery One way or another Nord Stream 2 will not move forward But it remains unclear who

1:23:11 could have been behind the Nord Stream Pipeline leaks. Make explicitly clear to anyone involved with constructing this pipeline that the consequences of doing so are catastrophic. Who, Fred Cruz would do such a thing like this? I mean... That offers tremendous strategic opportunity We still don't know who caused damage to the natural gas pipelines US Secretary of State warned against the pipeline The Nord Stream Pipeline mystery continues U.S says they'll do everything To stop the Nord Stream Pipeline everything we can. And I have no idea who is responsible. Kill Nord Stream 2 now! Put an end to it! Use all the tools available to stop the Nord Stream 2 and let it rust beneath the waves of the Baltic. It's almost inconceivable to think that the US would do it A member of European Parliament publicly thanked the U.S for blowing up the pipelines This pipeline must be stopped

1:24:03 that and why. According to US government think tank Rand Corp, the first step to weaken Russia is to stop Nord Stream 2. It's a real mystery. Halt Nord Stream 2 to stop Russia. Shut down the Nord Stream 2 pipeline. Stopping the Nord Stream. Take out Nord Stream 2 forever, permanently! Ending it permanently. End it once and for all. US must take immediate steps to terminate Nord Stream. Should cancel the Nord Stream pipeline Absolutely we should cut it off We must stop this Nord Stream We have made clear to the Russians that that pipeline is at risk if they move further into Ukraine We can't find anybody who'd be the obvious hope

1:24:40 You know all of this when it comes to Nord Stream 2 a pipeline that would bring natural gas from Russia to Germany It will not happen. They want some more cuz I love the story they built on this That's it's it's pretty obvious, you know with everyone's demanding something happened and then blaming Russia It's just it's unbelievable how you can get away with that and it's everyone and let's want to hear a little bit more I think we've heard enough. Okay, but you can play another minute. It was a deliberate act of sabotage and now the Russians are pumping out disinformation in lines. I want to bring in former CIA director John Brennan Russia is certainly the most likely suspect. Russia is certainly the likeliest suspect. Russia is most likely behind this. Russia is the likely cause of it. Likelihood that Russia is behind the attacks

1:25:35 Vladimir Putin, the most likely. Totally something Putin would do and then go blame it on someone else. Potentially a scenario of cutting off your nose to spite your face here Why would Russia bomb its own pipeline? It doesn't seem to make sense if you're thinking in a rational actor scenario, but... Experts agree that Russia is the key! What's cool though is when you see that thing You know what like The Hill What's that baby-faced kid named who was on The Hill podcast

1:26:22 I don't know. It's left, right it's everything they're all in on it there are they were all in on it and to an unbelievable degree well you know what well you know Adam is possible that Putin did it because it makes us look bad so what he does he's tricky of course tricky of course that's what he does exactly so he's gonna invest a few billion bucks in the pipeline and then blow it up so we can make us look bad yeah I get it I'm with ya on that one So there are some things... That's our analysis, that's our fine media that doesn't even think twice about it. Yeah It's weird. So Zelensky wrapped up his world tour in Brussels at the European Union and you know because he went everywhere pretty much France not much reporting on it here because you know balloon

1:27:16 Or UFO. Here's France 24 with a wrap up It was a case of welcome home, welcome to the EU That is how European Council Chief Charles Michel greeted Volodymyr Zelensky as the Ukrainian President arrived in Brussels It is just the latest stop on a tour of Europe that saw him meet with UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak in London yesterday He's been pressing European leaders for more military support and underlining the importance of EU unity in the face of existential threats. The question of EU membership was also a major theme addressed by Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and Zelensky himself, let's hear from them Your fight is a fight for independence, for democracy, for free Europe We all heard the urgency of your call to support Ukraine now

1:28:11 You spoke in a very moving manner about and praising the European way of life. And you added that Ukrainians want to come home to this European way of life, and indeed today we are one family, we have one vision, and family members help each other. You can count on us Long-term peace in Europe will only happen when Ukraine will gain the victory and will become a member of the European Union. This is the unity we've managed to build That was the translator for Zelensky, and you hear very clearly, you want peace? No no no! Not until we're a member of the European Union

1:29:02 Well, I have a couple of clips on this. But since you're on that particular topic let's play what the Chinese think of this. This might have changed from NTT... screw it New Tang Dynasty! I'm going to China's CGTN What is this? Well this is the Chinese global television network. Oh so this is that, these guys are all pro PRC? Pro China? Okay This is China-China. So let's listen to how they're looking at this what you just played. This is Ukraine EU help! European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has assured Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky of the support by the European Union

1:29:50 She says Ukraine and the EU are one family, and that Ukraine can depend on the bloc's support in its fight against Russia. I love that our clips mesh together! Zelensky has delivered a speech to European lawmakers and later addressed all leaders of the EU members' special summit in Brussels Alex Carrier has more. President Zelensky came to Brussels primarily to thank his European allies, billions of euros have been spent from the 27 member states and from the European Union on supporting Ukraine he also wants for more help maybe more fighter jets On the other hand accession to the European Union a big theme for president Zelensky He said look we want to be members of the EU We want those accession negotiations to begin within a year That is a different timeline to what the Europeans are saying Ursula von der Leyen saying

1:30:36 It'll happen when it happens. It's a merits-based system, there is no rigid timeline but what is clear that the Ukrainians want that access as quickly as possible and the Europeans are saying it can happen... ...it's just a question of whether or not you put those reforms in place." Well hold on a second! I like that because now we're talking about who's in the EU and who's NOT in the EU And ummm.... You know there are many other candidate countries One of them being Moldova and I had to get this clip from WION an Indian news outfit in Moldova the government just quit. Moldova's Prime Minister has resigned, and the government has collapsed The pro-western government resigned after a turbulent 18 months in power marked by economic turmoil and spillover effects of the Ukraine war Shortly before prime minister Natalia Gavrileta stepped down

1:31:31 Wait, wait. We're taking confirmation from Ukraine now? They are the guys that confirm something? Go back again.

1:32:17 that Russia has acted to destabilize Moldova. The former Soviet Republic of 2,5 million has suffered from soaring inflation and was strained last year by an influx of Ukrainian refugees It is also suffered power cuts following Russian air attacks on Ukrainian energy infrastructure Now dependence on Russian gas is another issue. The steep price increases, particularly for Russian gas led to street protests last year. The president Maya Santou accepted Gavriletsa's decision however she has given no sign of abandoning her pro-western policies

1:32:55 including seeking European Union accession. Last year in a diplomatic triumph for President Sandu, the EU leaders accepted Moldova as a membership candidate The government had been mapping out reforms to accelerate accession to the 27 nation bloc and working on diversifying its energy supply So Moldova under... Moldova's are on deck! Interesting Yeah To the west of Ukraine I might point out. So, I'm looking at the other CGT... Wait! Are they just gonna... Well, I'll just ask you a question Could they be now surrounding Ukraine? By bringing Moldova under Russian control? Oh interesting idea that could be

1:33:48 Hmm, that'd be pretty tricky. That would be very tricky ruskies I mean it's to the south to the South from I should say not really not completely to the west But I don't have my map up. Well, I do it to the north of Odessa so Yeah, they could be a it could be a Western southwestern flank he said it he said in military parlance Blank okay back to you Bob Now there was an interesting clip I've got it this one's gonna be you're gonna like. Cuomo on his show Oh the kid Cuomo not the old guy, Chris is going to go back to Ukraine today because he's brave

1:34:35 Yeah, very brave and throughout this particular episode I can get some more examples of this for the next show But he goes on every time he talks to anybody says you think that's as important is me going to Ukraine No And by the way, I'll be in Ukraine. Oh, can I just say something about this? I got a note from one of our guys who's in Lviv, I guess? So right on the border. Well, Lviv is east... is the western part. It's way over in the west And so the journalists are there They're embedded You know they're hanging out and according to my source known to me They are whoring and drinking and just hanging out Oh yeah! You're in Ukraine that's what you do! And anyone who writes something negative about Ukraine Is off the party bus

1:35:26 They're sent home and but specifically whoring and drinking was pointed out to me. Yeah, so Chris Cuomo's going to the source of pleasure. He needs to get laid that guy! But he lets a little item slip and what's funny about it is right after he gives this little spiel He has a general on and the general is just like this woman after the Canadian General. The general's looking like deer in the headlights, like what did you just say? And God I hope you're not gonna ask me about it which is what he should do!

1:36:05 But see if you can figure in this little, this is the opening. This is the bonus clip by the way. This is his lead up to the item I'm talking about which is like what? And then his continuation and he's oblivious to what he said and I want to mention the old saying from World War II loose lips Sink ships and as always this shows about you my brothers and sisters So have your say one eight four four nine six eight seven seven two zero And get it in because I'm not here tomorrow because we're traveling to Ukraine. We're gonna leave right after this Okay, and if everything goes right? Okay up and live for you Monday from what is happening in Ukraine From somewhere in there that we can get a signal out Yeah Why are we going why

1:36:55 Two reasons one it's the one-year anniversary of something that was supposed to just take a few weeks Okay, and once again today Ukraine's president made in him wait a minute Wait a minute whose side is he on when he says it was only supposed to take a few weeks. What did he believe Putin? I don't know what side he's on. He promotes the war so he is on that side, but I think that guy is not that bright and when he tells his next story it's like wait a minute One, it's the one-year anniversary of something that was supposed to just take a few weeks. OK? And once again today Ukraine's president made an emotional plea for more help not just from us but from allies all around the world all around the region and I want to tell you about that and i know there is a little bit of compassion fatigue hey they're winning right so its going to be okay It's their problem Quick story A buddy of mine Is taking me into the city Right before now Ok today this happened

1:37:58 And he doesn't seem okay. I said, what's going on? What's wrong? He says uh... He is talking about his limo driver Is that a buddy of mine because that's the kind of friends you would have The limo driver Could be It is irrelevant and he doesn't seem okay and so what's going on? What's wrong? He says, um, I just lost a friend So I'm very sorry. What happened? He said well using the army And they don't know where he is now. And the rest of the patrol came back, and he wasn't there. I said oh... In the US Army? What was it training? He said no. He was fighting in Ukraine. I said Oh! Well where was he? It's in this place called Bakhmut

1:38:45 Now here I am on Long Island in New York talking to a guy, I didn't even know had any connection to the situation. He's your buddy though and his friend is missing and Presumed the worst hopefully not in the exact same place that my team And I are about to go to oh now you know how when you hear a story like that You say what a small world? Yeah It is a small world And there is much more connective tissue than we assume that it's over there. It's their problem, it's not their problem Russia wanting to rebuild the Soviet Union Is going to be a problem Not just their problem and they'll be a lot of connective tissues stories like that one people from here But ramifications of commerce of fuel or food and of course a freedom Okay

1:39:39 So I'm listening to that saying, wait a minute. The US Army? We have patrols we have soldiers fighting and dying in Ukraine since when?! Well there's two ways to answer this one um i get daily reports of mercs killed in action US mercenaries, so this could be just a mischaracterization that it was the US Army versus he's a mercenary. They fight for money anywhere and And they're in northern Afghanistan and Iraq, anywhere you need American merch. Yeah we know there's mercenaries everywhere. There used to be a magazine for them But how about this clip? To the war in Ukraine and tonight the White House now confirming President Biden will travel to Poland to mark one year since Russia's invasion of Ukraine. And tonight Russia now ramping up its major new assault Tom Sufi Burrage in Ukraine again tonight

1:40:37 Yeah, David. Russia launching a fresh wave of lethal attack drones. Kiev's air defence in action again tonight it follows earlier waves of missile and drone strikes targeting Ukraine's power grid Russian warships and bombers firing those hundred missiles cruise missiles primarily Ukraine saying most were shot down but those that got through hit power stations across Ukraine also today Ukrainian officials confirming to ABC News The US has been providing the coordinates for most strikes against Russian targets with those US-supplied HIMARS rocket launchers, a deeper level of US involvement than previously known. That might answer some of our question if they have people over there that are not should not be over there they're painting targets in the field yeah in the field

1:41:25 Yeah, or who knows what. They're probably shooting people too. Yeah well yeah there you go advisors only advising. It's advisors we know that's how it works advisers uh there is a global shift underway and this was highlighted uh by the way before you continue I would like to note that Cuomo left it at that he never asked anybody anything about it like It's just, the guy is like oblivious to his own observation. Anyway I just found it peculiar Because...I would say that most, I think many Americans certainly think we're at war with Russia That's how its been positioned And we're sending troops and At a certain point when does the general population usually over socialized under informed see Chris Cuomo

1:42:20 I think, yeah we're fighting them. We are America! We're fighting them aren't we? Aren't we fighting them?! So the so we have a change in or a shift i would say in global... what is the word i'm looking for?... influence in the region and things that have changed since World War II to now and of all places what are you doing I'm sorry, I was crushing a can. Against your head? Yeah! Okay... When this comes up on the Morning Joe show with Joe and Mika then you know that this is a message and they brought someone with them in full uniform Well the war has entered a new stage in recent weeks as dozens of tanks were pledged by European allies to aid Ukraine's defense

1:43:14 with some already on their way. Leading the charge in that effort is Poland, which in late January stressed that even if other countries did not want to send tanks, Poland would. Joining us now Polish Chief of Defense General Rey and Jacek and it's really good to have you on board. Poland has stepped up immediately with no debate in so many ways tell us about your visit here and your message to America partnering nations in aid of Ukraine. as now the new center of power or the balance has shifted towards Poland? Very good morning. Ukraine is absolutely extremely important for Poland, it's extremely important for region with global implications from our very first day we started our support in many domains starting from a human approach absorbing eight millions Ukrainians crossing the border

1:44:22 a few million still staying in Poland. Then we started social programs, medical programs education for them and immediately we started preparation... Hold on one second! For one thing I can barely understand him because the audio is so bad he's not on set He's on set with his phone Well how come it sounds like he's coming over a phone or something? Do you have a mic funny? I can hear him It got a lot of low end in this microphone I don't know why, but it's okay they'll have someone else come in. Just bear with it is worth it. And immediately we started preparation and sending equipment ammunition and anything they need for victory. For victory? General since the war began Poland... The center of gravity of NATO and of the EU That was the word I was looking for! The center of gravity of NATO Since the war began Poland

1:45:21 The center of gravity of NATO and the EU seems to have moved east, and Poland is increasingly incredibly important country. going down in Poland. How are our Poles reacting to their new central place? Status! In Europe. Well, you can feel every single day that the center of gravity from a historical cold war time design moved from Germany to Poland and Warsaw. And geostrategy matters and also geography matters and now we're aspirations for Western civilization as well

1:46:04 The center of gravity moved towards Poland. There's messaging in here that we don't yet understand Well, he specifically said Germany didn't he? From Germany Yes from... yes from Germany Did he say Eastern Germany No, he just said Germany Every single day the center of gravity from a historical Cold War time design moved from Germany to Poland Ah! From historical Cold War design from Germany to Poland Which is by the way more westward. Curiously, but still... There's messaging here that we're just not picking up on yet but there's something about this We heard it. We heard it but we don't get it yet

1:46:50 Maybe we have been discussing over the last two or three months how Germany's being cut out of the picture And how they want to do one thing or another and we also discussed effect at that little Beer pooch that tried to take place a beer hall pooch By that nutball German guy who says he's trying to get around the fact that Americans are being too influential in German politics, and we're running the place The Prince That sort of thing. Something's up with... They're really, the Germans aren't going to put up with this for long Well the Germans have nothing but idiots in their cabinet who are one by one resigning or making weird moves Germany is I think Germany already has fallen The military stuff is unmaintained it's crap they got rid of the woman by blaming her for wearing high heels

1:47:49 And saying inappropriate things like war is good or whatever she was doing. No this you're right It's definitely a dea neutering of Deutschland That's that is but what do you have left if you? Neuter Deutschland, he can't let Poland run things I mean it's what's interesting in this whole thing Is that Hungary which seems to be the best managed of all these countries, it just shuts up about the whole deal. They're back down we got nothing to do with that. We like our gas! Yeah now you gotta do your own thing this guy's great uh there was find it yes It's weird what what we're observing is not easy to understand from our perspective and we probably have as much

1:48:39 Think I don't know how anyone else could get any better than we are in terms of analysis Well, I'll give you one that we have figured out this came from Deutsche Villa on Wednesday Elon Musk's company SpaceX said that it is curbing use of its Starlink satellite communication service by the Ukrainian military apparently Ukraine's use of Starlink to guide drone attacks against Russian forces is a no-go. The question is why now? SpaceX sent thousands of Starlink terminals to Ukraine last year to provide internet communication. Now the company is saying that Starlink was quote never meant to be weaponized and it's taken steps to limit its use with drones. Starlink relies on a network of satellites in low orbit around the earth to provide wireless communication

1:49:33 The Ukrainian government in Kiev has condemned the decision by SpaceX accusing the company of ignoring Ukraine's right to self-defense. All right, so this story is true but not for the reasons they imply Elon is saying hey Starlink is not intended for military use Because you need star shield You see they have the entire Starlink system rebranded as star shield and you need to pay? Starshield for your military use which is much more expensive. You're trying to get a free deal off of Starlink Which is for consumers, Dave. They this was always a military system

1:50:22 And now, SpaceX I guess is repositioning saying excuse me we need to make money off of this too military industrial complex. So star shield. They want peace in the action. Well they want their rightful action which is what this whole thing was funded for in the first place It's always been for military. You can't make something like that pay off with a hundred bucks a month for people with RVs No, you can't make that thing pay off. That part is the loss leader Yeah you're sending tens of thousands of satellites into low orbit and you think that a couple of yahoos with RVs And people who can afford $110 a month for internet

1:51:04 That's gonna pay it back. No, and he beat him he beat Google you beat all those companies He beats Jeff Bezos the Bezos is dumb enough to think that he can sell it to consumers And maybe he will did you see that? They're now your pharmacy Amazon they've never been my pharmacy Oh man, they are so you can now order all your prescription drugs via Amazon and I mean everything. And in typical Amazon fashion you go okay let me get some Prozac, Prozac $500 a month if you get the generic a month supply three dollars and ninety nine cents

1:51:48 Yeah, well now you're talking. Best price! And best price and this was supposed to be what... watch this face the Mavericks guy Come on, come on. The surfer? No no Maverick the basketball team what's his name Oh Shark Tank Boy Shark Tank Man Shark Tank Boy Mark Cuban Cuban He was going to do the cheap alternative pharmacy and he just got priced right out $399 for a month supply of Prozac

1:52:28 Generic. Are you kidding me? This is a bonanza! And what was I reading the other day, I was reading... here it is Psychologists may soon gain the authority to write prescriptions under a new legislative proposal How about that? You're a psychologist. Oh, that's... If I was a psychiatrist who can do it... No, psychologists! Psychologists! Yeah, I know. I said if I was a psychiatrist, I would make the biggest stink in the world about this. Yeah well we'll see This is so that the telemedicine colleges... Psychologists usually have a master's degree in sociology. My sister, my sister Willow can write me a Prozac subscription!

1:53:16 Prescription. Or a subscription. If we have Amazon, it's a subscription! Yes always the subscription. Typically as psychiatrist prescribes medication but is not involved in providing talk or other types of therapy this is the betterhelpnow.com lobby BetterHelp.com I think is the name with the outfit where you can talk to a psych... they match you with a psychologist Hello. Yes, and you can talk to them and you don't have to show your face it doesn't have to be on video it can just be on a phone call And then they're going to start prescribing you drugs! This is how the Democrat Party wins Yeah get everyone all doped up why not? Either party benefits from this by the way Everyone becomes so incredibly susceptible It's great! Ah man...the drugs in this country

1:54:14 Any drugs you want to look up? Any particular drug you need. Do you take any medication? I can think of a few things, you know. Adderall would be good for me. Adderall... let's see if we're good for it! I can imagine you on adderall that would be hilarious. Hey John! How ya doing?! Let's see... Adderall okay Oh this is interesting They have... so there's adderall $49.99 for a 60 count pack of one, then there's NADDERALL XR with an n $29.99 for a 30 count so it looks like your adderall you can be good for around 49 bucks from Amazon maybe available on Amazon Prime

1:55:12 I mean that's gonna put a lot of kids out of the business in college selling their animal. Yeah, they'll find something else to do So while we're still on Ukraine this whole thing...I want to get this clip out of the way because it wasn't played much over here so I got it from China China official China yeah This Ukraine Russia they're gonna do something about these reactors They don't want somebody bombing them by accident Russia says is ready to work with the International Atomic Energy Agency to create a safety zone around the Zaporizhia nuclear power plant. Russian officials and the International Atomic Energy Agency held a new round of consultations on cooperation in ensuring safety. The head of the nuclear facilities operator said Russia is providing comfortable social and living conditions for staff members and their families. Of course, they don't want that... They're protecting it! They don't want to blow that up

1:56:06 Well, they don't want the Ukrainians blowing it up and blaming them. They know what they don't want to blown up at all They need to keep it because when this is all over the power needs to be in the region I don't is it actually still connected or is it hooked up? Is it running do we know that they don't say no, I think it is well cuz all we hear is how Power is off in Ukraine Well, they keep blowing up those substations with the missiles that they supposedly block. There was a big article in the Dutch newspapers about the Dutch detainees in jail people who are you know prisoners and

1:56:52 And as we know everywhere prisoners are slaves. They they perform slave services, you know the the old joke of their You know they make license plates while true outfits like IKEA Contract directly with a correctional corrections corporation of America's an example for them to make tables and hex wrenches yeah many hex wrenches but now So they interviewed some of these prisoners. They're happy and proud because now they're making wood-burning stoves for Ukrainians. I'm happy to be in jail making wood burning stoves! At least i'm doing it for a good purpose, and not just for corporations It was a feelgood piece And boy did it

1:57:39 I think we can wrap this up with Zelensky, who is now a statesman of incredible and impeccable standing. And this is from Sky News. He was the first one, the first one to call in! Yeah just looking at Twitter just seeing President Zelensky has just been tweeting I extend my condolences to the president Erdogan and the people of Turkey and the families of those who lost their lives in the earthquake In and wish a speedy recovery to all the injured We stand with the people in this difficult time. We are ready to provide the necessary assistance to overcome the consequences of this disaster." That's the latest that we're hearing from President Zelensky and I'm sure other leaders, other world leaders will begin to rally around very quickly. Oh yes he is such humanitarian

1:58:32 Took time out of his busy day. He's the go-to guy. He is the go to guy! So I noticed in that report that they pronounced turkey instead of turkey... Yeah And I've decided, I'm gonna start pronouncing and spelling it correctly now because we do it with Deutschland. Yeah? And is Turkey... Turkey! I thought it was Tur-key-ay. Well you can, it heads toward Turk-yay. Turk-ya. I'm gonna use the European pronunciation which would be Turk-eye-uh Whatever it is, I've noticed that Al Jazeera's pronouncing it correctly and have a report. I think they pronounced in here And CGTV is pronouncing it correctly And also TN the Chinese are pronouncing it correct and there's different as if there's a distinct Separation now who's pronouncing it correctly? Who's not and people are very slowly moving over to the correct pronunciation and spelling

1:59:31 Which is T-U-R-K I-Y E. But when you say correct, does that mean that Keeve is correct? Since that's the official way... Well you've got me in a corner now! Yes because you can't make jokes about Keeve and an ording of chicken keeve. I'm gonna have chicken keev. Chicken keeve is not on the menu. I'm probably going to start pronouncing it keev just because this is... but let's listen to this. This is the turkey updor... I already screwed it up. Turkey update from Al Jazeera and you can hear the correct pronunciation within this report. Six days after two devastating earthquakes hit Turkey and Syria, hopes of rescuing any more survivors from the rubble are beginning to fade on a visit to the epicenter of one of the quakes The UNA chief Martin Griffiths said it was the worst event to hit the region for 100 years

2:00:22 Turkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said steps will be taken to rebuild broken cities within weeks. He has denied accusations that building codes were not properly enforced Meanwhile tens of thousands are without shelter across Turkey and Syria, and many are sleeping out in the cold Turkish state media report 48 people have been arrested for looting In total more than 29 thousand people are now known to have died More than 24,000 of those were in Turkey and more than four and a half thousand in Syria But that figure is expected to rise now Is the because it was northwestern Syria isn't that where the with the beautiful like the vacation spot is in Syria? I don't know that for effect. Is it possible? I want to say Idlib have to take a look but twenty-four twenty five Thousand people dead that's that's ninety nine twenty nine well

2:01:17 However they're counting that. Well I do have two, if you want to before we take our break, I do have two more clips about Turkey. Yeah sure It's about the building codes, which is not being covered here But I brought it up on a show previous show. Which is there's a building code problem in some of these earthquake areas They're not building these buildings correctly they have earthquakes at this magnitude elsewhere and The whole place doesn't fall apart and building to sit there for one minute you get to film it collapsing completely pancaking did you do you see any of the number three Do you see any of the aerial footage of- The? But the rip in the earth.

2:01:59 I mean it's a biblical proportions this thing. It is like holy crap! A biblical area, so let us listen to these two clips. This is the Turkquake building codes arrest. This is from Al Jazeera again. Turkish police have detained 12 people of collapsed buildings in the southeastern provinces of Gaziantep and Sandorfa Those taken into custody included building contractors. Asad Bey gets more now from Istanbul. Now we're hearing around 12 people have been detained about the construction of these buildings, and there are two of those here in Istanbul. One of those individuals Mehmet Caskun he's responsible for the construction of a twelve-story building

2:02:40 Hatay which had around 250 apartments. Now that building came down during the earthquake now he was detained at Istanbul airport, he was getting ready to leave for Montenegro and had some cash on him which was confiscated by authorities now in his indictment which has been leaked to the media here he says that these buildings follow the regulations and he doesn't know why the building came down but it has other buildings are still standing and that he had followed those regulations. But the public prosecutor has also put out detention orders on 29 other individuals surrounding the construction of buildings. Now, questions are being asked of the government here around those building regulations and standards of construction. Back in 2018 there was amnesty around those building regulations in some cases

2:03:27 People just paid a fine and experts had warned about those standards in the event of an earthquake. Now, those questions continue to remain in the government deny that building regulations were ignored but this question will continue to remain as the weeks and months go on. Yeah I mean you see the videos like yeah man... The pancaking is actually really annoying I mean, you've seen earthquakes. It's rarely a straight down pancaking. No usually the thing tips over. Tips over yeah! Well here is part two of this building codes clips and this is again not being correct... This is important because

2:04:12 At least the Turks know there's liability issues here, but then they don't know how deep it goes. But people should be aware of the fact that there are building codes in earthquake zones in the United States we have them in California and And there was inspections that are there inspectors involved? There are governments involved This is a lot of involvement here on this It's gonna shake out and it's gonna end up with a lot of people in jail Part 2. Well earlier we spoke to Solly Ozel, a professor at Kadir Haas University he says investigating building contractors could unveil a much larger chain of violations Obviously these contractors I mean first of all they're innocent until proven guilty but

2:04:54 but they may have not followed the regulations to the letter and that would be their responsibility. But they are not the only ones who would be responsible if such is the case because there are those who approve those plans, there are those who supposed to inspect those plans, there are people who give them the permits conspirators, if you will. Should this be proven to be correct that they have not followed the letter of the regulation that exists? Building codes are tender codes have changed over 150 times in the past 20 years. There had been quite a number of amnesties and, of course all that made cheating actually very valuable thing because then you make a lot of money if don't follow the code and then you actually pay little penalty perhaps and then you get away with it And right now you get away with murder literally

2:05:56 Well, yeah. That's unfortunate Yeah it is very unfortunate especially for these pancake buildings Wow I mean there are a million people homeless There are children they don't even know the childrens name It is a mess Yeah that one way of looking at it You know what? I think we have one thing here and then we can take our break You have this, a general report from CBS Weekend. They painstakingly picked through the rubble desperately searching for survivors then their worst fear One emergency worker was moderately injured the rest unharmed Unimaginable luck in a place with so little

2:06:56 In hard-hit Adana, babies and small children received treatment at a hospital in the southeastern city. Most were plucked from the ruins by rescue workers but lost in the chaos where their names with no one yet to claim them The fear now is the earthquake has robbed these babies of their parents and quite possibly their identities too We know what area she was found it and how she got here dr. Kesslin says but don't have any address For other survivors, they grieve for those they've lost wherever they've been buried. As more and more fresh graves are dug up in anticipation of mass burials The scale of Monday's 7.8 magnitude quake and its many aftershocks continue to defy comprehension So too do the numbers At least 6,000 buildings have collapsed 900,000 people need urgent shelter And around 5 million have been displaced from their homes

2:07:55 Aid has come in from 45 countries, including the U.S., but for badly hit Syria just two convoys have made it into northwestern Idlib province the last remaining rebel-held territory in a country deeply scarred by over a decade of civil war It's a grinding conflict six year old Moussa was born into He was found after four days trapped under the rubble in the southern town of Jandaris In his short life Moussa has survived war and now this earthquake But with so little help on the way, it's hard to know what future if any he has. Wow So not to be ghoulish about it but we do have to look now at you know geopolitically What does this mean? So the pipelines I think are destroyed which had Russian gas oil not gas

2:08:51 Erdogan, someone needs to come in and start helping rebuilding. Erdogan will probably have to start making some concessions the lira is already overinflated and it's you know pretty much worthless from where 90% down from its value a couple years back he's holding back the entrance of Finland and Sweden into NATO So he, I mean it's just a bad coincidence that this is happening right now when he had a very strong position and now he has almost no position unless he wants to come across as a horrible person. And Diana Sosuaka who was a Turkish senator or is the Turkeyish Senator

2:09:42 They still say Turkish. They say Turkish? She claimed in her speech, which I have seen and the translation sounded right... she says this earthquake was directed so just want to put that out there she may be a nut job. Oh wait a minute! Breaking breaking breaking we got a breaking report here from The Keeper apparently another object has been spotted over Lake Huron it has been shot down according to Twitter So another object! Wow, we're live. Fourth balloon... I mean it's right over Chicago Well We're under attack John That's Lake Michigan, Lake Huron is really in Canada Okay But we are under attack It says Mars attacks The script is rolling With the worst movie ever I love that movie! My favorite movie Wasn't there a song you had to play? What song was it they played that made their heads explode

2:10:41 I forgot. Oh man... Well with that, i'd like to thank you for your courage today in the morning to you the man who put the sea in the CGTN China Global Television Network News ladies and gentlemen say hello to my friend on the other end Mr John C DeVoree! In the morning to you mr Adam Curry also in the morning all ships at sea Boots on the ground subs in the air subs in the water just feed me all right All the dames and knights out there The balloons in the air and in the morning to the trolls in the troll room Who have been hanging out there to troll room dot IO now?

We have your podcasts you go right in and you can listen to the stream, you can jump into the troll room and communicate right away all kinds of fun new stuff and let's see how many trolls are in there right now well well well 2268 I'd say that's pretty good. That's a reasonable number, that's pretty average it was about the same...I think it was 23 last Sunday but the down...I thought to be a lot less because I thought maybe some of these trolls but I guess not would be watching pre-Super Bowl stuff which is gonna... No! Are you kidding me? Well they could be and we may have had more at the beginning of the show but once we gave our tips

2:12:35 Who's gonna win the predictions? Okay, predictions. They're out there. They're calling their bookies I got other things to do sir colander you think that anyone in the troll room those guys have bookies Yeah, I wouldn't put it past them they are trolls some of them may be bookies No, so that's always possible big. Thanks to correct the record who brought us the artwork for episode 1528 we titled that one habitat which was thanks to Amy Goodman's pronunciation of habitat all caps is People didn't say much about the title but they loved the artwork which was Fred Cruz and

2:13:20 Yeah, it was Ted Flintstone. It was Fred Flintstone only now Fred Cruz clearly in Bedrock if you haven't seen it is such a great piece and we looked at a number of pieces that were available to us and you can check that out for yourself at noagendaartgenerator.com Go look at what the artists are putting in there they're doing that in real time while they're listening to us And we choose from it right after the show, right after we're done. We try not to make it the same as the title of the show but we do choose the art first and let's see what we had... Now the one you liked right off the bat was Microsoft Barf by Thompson Neal

2:14:06 Which was a nice piece, no agenda with the squares which represented Microsoft although it was Google but we probably said that wrong. But then having Clippy there was pretty obscure and also the text was so small that just doesn't work on these pieces of artwork. I don't know where this is... At the bottom of the first page right now. Bottom right all the way at the bottom. I'm going, I'm going. Yeah scroll Oh yeah, I did like that piece. Yeah told you it did have And Clippy is the originator of this whole thing that I think there's how far its gonna get by the way Clippy was annoying Well Microsoft Bob was the was before Clippy wasn't he?

2:14:54 I think Clippy, I think they came in... this was the moment that they thought this was a good idea. They also had this little dog remember? The little dog and said you'd have a dog instead of Clippy Oh yeah! I do remember the little dog What was it's name? Wag its tail and ask your questions You sure you want to do it that way? Hey! Hey don't forget about me! Zippy! Yes, it be we know so Clippy was annoying and the dog was annoying and Microsoft Bob which I was very I liked Microsoft Bob as a Children's our operating system to get kids involved in computers because my son at the time. Yeah JC buzz buzzkill jr

2:15:35 I think he was like seven at the time or when this thing, when the Microsoft Bob came out. I'd have to open up the Wiki page and get exact dates but He was jacked up about it! He used his machine all of the time and developed a bunch of software that worked within the Microsoft Bob environment but they kept trying to sell it to adults Was there around the same time we had the Microsoft Comic Chat? I think that came later. Okay, they came... But they've had this idea they think adults are dolts. Adults? Adults! But Microsoft Bob was a cool product when JC showed it to me and he showed me all the intricacies of it as a kid It was like wow yeah that's pretty cool and I was big fan of Microsoft Bob but not for not to replace Windows

2:16:31 I mean, what are they thinking? And they would never promote it to kids as a kid operating system. They just wouldn't deal with it Well at least that kind of worked. Cortana which I never understood is a brand name. Which is... It's named after a small Toyota. Cortana is the first thing you need to disable on your windows because it sucks up resources Yeah, it does. I got rid of it More artwork we looked at was, let's see... We had explosive new details. Bombshell bombshell. It was a lot of still a lot of balloon stuff I kind of liked Tantaniel's hang up the Adidas with the two adidas sneakers hanging off the G of agenda Which I'd like it because it was clean but nothing paled in comparison to or everything paled in comparison

2:17:24 To Fred Cruz. I mean that and that was my miss Miss stating his name and it just and then that is his name now, by the way is Fred Cruz I'm afraid forever more just like its Janet Yeltsin the yeltsin This is what we do on this show Yeltsin So yeah, I mean it was just pretty clear What else was there? We had a... I like Let's Go Brandon from Tantanille too, but that was never gonna get picked. No Do you have a buzz in your microphone today by the way? No shouldn't be let me hear something while going I can hear

2:18:05 Sounds like something in the background. Also, the whores Yeah the whores the whores Whores is not gonna make our artwork though No it's not gonna but comic strip bloggers whores were quite good yeah well he's in Poland that's where all the good whores are hookers and can now they're all in Ukraine They really knock me out Thank you very much to all of our artists for participating. We see that you already have put up a lot of things in anticipation, what we will like or what topics we will be discussing... Or topics we have discussed. You can watch this in real time at noagendaartgenerator.com or indeed we publish a lot of these pieces of art in chapters if you get one of those modern podcast apps and why aren't you already using one?

By the way

2:19:37 And we have a few policies ourselves. I'd like to mention one specifically If you have something to say post it publicly This is not intended to be a DM network and I get this a lot People and after they have to look at every posting now to make sure it's not a DM if you want this Is for public discourse for conversation, and then there's this other thing that There's a style of question that I'm very irked about. You may have seen this, and it goes like this... Why haven't you spoken at all about Julian Assange? I find that interesting! It's actually the second part of it that makes it funny Yes, yes. Hmmmm.... Interesting. You haven't spoken about that. Whyyyy?

2:20:31 And I wanted to remind everybody of our mission statement. We deconstruct media if the media is not talking about it and we search pretty far and wide to find media that talks about topics, it's hard for us to deconstruct the media but yet people then make this...and it irks me! And I know I shouldn't get that mad at you. And we're not here to get Julian out. That should have been just actually getting into the politics of it. Yeah please. That should have been done by Trump But you know it's like, you never talk about it ever! So no we mention it all the time. In fact you... Yeah but you'll say yeah but meanwhile Julian Assange is rotting away You'll say that many times I mentioned him and Martha Stewart in the same breath which by itself is a problem

2:21:22 Anyway, we deconstruct media. We do the best we can.

Sometimes you wanna go hang out with all the nights and days You wanna be where you won't be Triggered or held to blame, you wanna be where everybody feels the same It's like a party I think i have one ISO, and I really phoned it in for today. Let me see where is it? I phoned it man! What can I say? Gas bag... I don't have anything good. I got two though. You talked right over here comes gas bag. No. What do you have? Well I can help much. Okay I got weird. It's possible!!! What?! I know what that was Oh it was weird Yeah very weird as five seconds

2:40:40 Four on my clip list. Who do you think you are? Now who the hell do you think that you are?! I'll take that one, i'll take it! You're the guy with the ear...who was that? Marjorie Taylor Greene No! It's close though! It was the other one! Bobert Yes You're the guy with the ear. Did I tell you that after my procedure, I have not worn my hearing aids for... weeks now? Wait a minute! Yep After your talking about your teeth? Yep Yeah So it was- I think- I don't mean- you may not remember but we found out that I had low level infection right by my molars which is right underneath my sinuses and all those years that I thought I had

2:41:38 allergies it turns out it was this infection and that so that would clog it up and then it's all connected to the ears. And I am scheduling my audiology report because we can test, we can compare it to the previous one but I haven't worn...I don't even think about my hearing aids! I'm cured!! Well this is a interesting turn of events. Yeah I hear more high-end. I don't have my volume up as high. This is disgusting! What is wrong with the medical community? They can tell us to get vaxed, whatever you do it doesn't work but get the vax and then they do they can't even identify something like this Well... It was the medical community who identified it was it was my periodontist But he saw it immediately He did a scan

2:42:29 It's a CT scan, it's kind of a cool machine. You hold on to it like you're in...you stand in it and you have two handles like you're in some Universal Studios theme park ride Then the the thing descends over your head and turns around Yeah, and then you can you can you know You can slice and dice right through your head. And he said oh look at all this I know it's a mess Look how small the brain is no He said look at all this infection That's right here by this tooth in that tooth and and I feel physically better because my body is not fighting this infection Oral hygiene people it's important

2:43:09 Get one of those quite good. That's a good it's a good story It's a good lesson is it very good now you mentioned you mentioned Tina earlier? Mm-hmm because she came in to tell you about the news breaking news Do you remember I'm gonna just have you after this clip Remember, why is she called Tina the Keeper? I think people out there want to know Oh, I can tell you exactly what well don't have to tell me before You tell me I want you listen to this clip cuz it kind of gives a clue disgusting clue I might add as to why she's called Tina the Keeper. This is a Nick and Nikki Bella, the twins that used to wrestle and she went to Paris this is some TikTok thing and with just 10 million followers hello Wow

2:43:53 And listen to this. When it comes to Paris, it just brings out these fashionistas in Brie and I. We always plan like two or three outfits a day. I feel like it's so disrespectful to the French people to walk around not looking good. Yeah How many suitcases did you have to bring? So for me...I think I brought 12. Okay! Yes Yes, this is exactly the area of expertise that Tina Curry has and that gave her the moniker The Keeper. When we were on our way to Chicago or maybe we're already in Chicago To meet her sisters so we had been together for a bit And I remember saying on the show John John John This woman is able to pack both of us in a very small suitcase and you said she's A Keeper!

2:44:44 Yes, if you do a lot of traveling with women You get somebody like this Nikki Bella who packs 12 suitcases to go to Paris so she can change three times a day Here's the problem with this kind of thinking first of all. You're gonna look like an American dummy Do no matter what you pack and drag to Paris Because these are American clothes what you do is go with no suitcases And you buy all your clothes in Paris. I guess some people have never been there before don't realize that it's a shoppers paradise with department stores everywhere that have some of the greatest looking stuff you've ever seen in your life and It's all over the place, and it's not expensive

2:45:31 And you shop there. If you want to bring back 10 suitcases because you bought that many clothes in Paris, then that makes some sense to me but... To go to Paris with American clothing so you can look good? You look like an idiot! Ten million followers?! Yeah No wonder they're blowing money in Paris We're doing it wrong Ehh we are doing it illegally Two clips here from the limited hangout It's a limited hangout everybody. The outrage in Congress, the oversight committee bitching and moaning about the FBI

2:46:12 and how they were controlling social media like what, what, whaaat? Here's a little mini cut. House Republicans aired their grievances against Twitter yesterday Is the house just going to look like all they're doing is a consistent grievance train? Grievance train I mean they're adding to their grievances trains for sure This will no doubt be an airing of grievances this kicks off at 11 You know they just want an airing of the grievances it's a little festivus an airing of grievances and conspiracy theories, and making a bet that the American people cares at all about Hunter Biden and his laptop in business dealings. The first GOP-led hearing on the so called weaponization of government committee it turned into an airing of partisan grievances House Republicans proving their goals for the next two years have little to do with delivering legislative results for the American people instead it appears their true mission is to investigate their foes

2:47:06 and air their grievances. In between Marjorie Taylor Greene's whining and Lauren Boebert, you know Republicans spent their time airing their personal grievances I'm also deeply troubled by the idea of Congress as i said in my opening statement using oversight is a weapon to air a list political grievances It's just been an airing of grievances, of debunked claims and conspiracy theories. I think most folks watching back home are having a hard time following some what y'all are saying because it seems to go so far down the rabbit hole This was beautiful watching all these news models doing most of this yesterday with the same script The Airing Of Grievances So they literally will not

2:47:46 not address what is being said and just blow it up like as we said they would, and this whole... Congressional Oversight Committee is only for podcasts to bitch about, you know some bad radio shows. You say it was true! FBI was doing this... No one cares they are ignoring it. They will not get to the American people because that is the message This is the smoking gun of the entire M5M being full of shit Completely full and I'm gonna prove it by... A stinky gun too. Yes, very stinky! I'm gonna play a part of the opening statement from an FBI retired FBI agent their names are all Baker for some reason if you're in the FBI and your retire your name's Baker

2:48:39 This guy, and you should watch the whole thing. I just took two minutes of it. He said he was an agent for 30 years and a lot of former CIA and all intelligence personnel who have been there a long time they can't believe what has happened to their CIA but most importantly their FBI And listen to this Thank You Mr Chairman Americans have lost faith in the Federal Bureau investigation an institution they once regarded as the world's greatest law enforcement agency. I spent 33 years in the FBI and have continued to be closely engaged with the Bureau since my retirement, I am deeply troubled by this loss of faith not only because of the challenge and danger it presents to our nation but personally it breaks my heart. Mahat! Specific lapses will be looked into by this panel

2:49:40 But the big issue is why did they happen? What changed and what should be done. Culture is where it starts this widespread deleterious behavior of the past several years describes a culture not just the work of a few bad apples Robert Mueller when he was the FBI director set out deliberately to change the culture of the FBI from a law enforcement agency, to an intelligence driven agency that had bad and unintended consequences. And the difference is this, in law enforcement you spend every day consciously or unconsciously waiting for that day to come when you're going to raise your right hand before a judge or before jury and swear to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth

2:50:34 That's quite different than an intelligence agency that operates through deceit and deception, and their end product is an estimate. Some would call it a best guess. Guesses aren't allowed in the courtroom. Past reforms like the Church and Pike committees were necessary. This present subcommittee is a step in the right direction. Hopefully its work will be bipartisan Because the abuses of an intelligence driven FBI threaten the liberty of those on the left as well as those on the right. In 1978, after the Church Committee revelations reforms were undertaken The FBI and DOJ enacted a series of Attorney General guidelines for conducting investigations That Congress gave us to Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act

2:51:27 Now, however the use of FISA against US citizens as seen in the Carter Page case has presented a threat to American civil liberties. FISA suspends the Constitution And he just went on and on. So there was some real valid stuff in there He was good that guy yeah, and I'd like to respond to a troll comment We hear this a lot it typically goes like this Currie and Dvorak won't tell you that it is these Zionist globalists who control the media because they're afraid that the Zionists globalists will kill them

2:52:04 It's irrelevant who is running it. What is relevant, that people still listen to it! So stop wasting your time calling out the Jews and get people in the mouth to listen to our show you were gonna say? There's no evidence of any of that by the way This Baker guy, the whole thing I've watched a lot of this. As you see how many clips do i have? None! Zero! I have zero clips about it because there's a lot of good stuff...I mean I do have the one ISO clip that we use with the Bobert. Which I like yeah that's good. But it really makes your...it makes your makes you itch when you listen to them

2:52:50 Baker says I like to be partisan, non-partisan. It's very partisan the Democrats all come up and say no no this is bullcrap you guys are just picking on these poor people and you shouldn't do it it's ridiculous to listen to the Democrats and Raskin being one of the worst of them yeah uh and then they didn't listen to many of the Republicans other than Boebert and Green They're very, they have some good questions. It's very interesting and somewhat entertaining the one there's one US Representative from Rhode Island I don't have his name but he did make the interesting comment which is a throwback comment kind of a call back to I think it was Swan or one of the old whistleblowers from back in the day Don't talk to the FBI He says I wouldn't talk to the FBI if they called me You can't trust them

2:53:42 No, but a lot of what I'm seeing is... it's interesting. You know you could see and I don't have these clips but Matt Walsh was at State, I think in Tennessee and he was being questioned because they want to How was it? Oh he wants to shut down children being transitioned. Female genital mutilation in Tennessee hospital and so there you have the Democrat state senator saying what qualification do you have as a medical doctor Mr Matt Welsh and then, and then you hear during this FBI near the oversight committee asking the Twitter lady what qualifications do you have

2:54:23 as a medical doctor. I mean it's the same thing, all it is to get on television with a soundbite these people don't care about you your elected representatives Republicans and Democrats don't care about you they don't care they care about themselves an outrage if I see Matt Gaetz on one more podcast Get To Work Bro! That guy is annoying with his horse teeth Bad news in the great reset of the world bad news In three months time taking a drag like this will no longer be legal in parts of Amsterdam from mid-may It will be illegal to smoke cannabis in the streets of the cities than one area better known

2:55:12 known as the red light district. The ban comes as the city attempts to crack down on anti-social behaviour by tourists and attempt to improve quality of life for residents, many of whom have long since complained about the disruption caused by visitors. The city has threatened to go even further to crack down on tourist behaviour If the nuisance does not decrease sufficiently with a smoking ban, the possibilities of banning smoking on terraces at coffee shops in the area will also be examined. Almost all councillors supported taking action in a vote on Thursday where the City Council also announced that restaurants and bars will have to close by 2am on Fridays and Saturdays and sex workers will have to close their venues at 3 am. Residents had been campaigning for changes like this one for years – and for one local leader

2:55:58 It's about time. In addition to the new laws, the Amsterdam City Council will launch a stay away campaign... ...to target tourists travelling to the capital for drugs alcohol or sex. The Bureau of Tourism has started their Stay Away Campaign! What kind of tourism department is this? Well here's what going on They're not, this is France 24 and they should just say it. It's the Brits! The Brits get on EasyJet Friday evening... Friday afternoon They're drunk before they get on the plane. They land at Schiphol, they are drinking puking pissing in mailboxes Anything that oh it's though they are the word it's just a bridge I'm gonna call it The way it is It's the British believe this to be true I have seen situations where there's a bunch of these usually the soccer fans I was in one of those no situation businessmen too

2:56:53 But I believe it's true. I believe it would be the Brits they're ones they... Taxi Eric won't even drive him to the airport he's like, they puke in your car No! no, no take the train They're horrible They are the worst Sorry Brits, but it's you. It really is you but this was ruining it for everybody This is part of the greater big reset The whores have to go the weed has to go its it all has to go that You cannot have one country that has all the fun stuff in the EU it has to go They've been working on this for a long time and it's gonna end. It's just gonna end But there you have it now I have a clip for your you report Yes, I'm a clip for you with a question what?

2:57:38 How does this psychological operation work? Listen to this. When Eric Nelson proposed to Brittany Dreygus, the hardest material on earth had become a little easier to buy. Did you always want to seek out a lab-grown diamond? Frankly, I didn't know what a lab-grown diamond was until a few months before we went shopping for a ring. Demand for lab grown diamonds has spiked the past few years driven primarily by younger buyers attracted to their affordability sustainability and traceability i was turned off just by knowing how some Mine diamonds are sourced. So if it wasn't for being a lab-grown diamond, you perhaps would not have gotten a diamond engagement ring? Yeah I'd probably just get a band The diamonds can cost up to 50% less! This is where you grow diamonds

2:58:28 This is our state-of-the art production facility. Jonathan Levine Miles is an executive at WD Diamonds, a pioneer in the lab grown diamond industry You're saying these are very much real diamonds? Yes correct I can attest to that having made them myself The jewels develop and this top secret lab just outside DC from paper thin slices of a diamond blasted with gases and microwaves And Levine Miles says the results are the same as natural diamonds. Lab-grown diamonds are chemically, physically, optically the same as mined diamonds It's a process that Levine Miles says consumes less energy than mining. These are actually trapezoids Nelson and Dreygus are now married, and looking forward to a future together What does this ring symbolize? Fake Symbolizes us our relationship our commitment to one another And there is certain ring to that So you know I was always interested in the marketing of diamonds

2:59:27 You know, because the price is just whatever the marketing is. But now they've successfully convinced people that... and I think the keeper as well to a degree. She's like oh these look just as pretty but really are they worth even $5? To me it's in the same level of fake meat It's like you pay certain, there is a certain value to a diamond that has been around for a long time. You know it's hard to get them and dig them up as well of course it's all controlled by De Beers but they've now moved into just here's the diamond we made in the lab and I'm still paying thousands of dollars for it! What is this?

3:00:11 I don't know. You caught me off guard, I have no idea. Thank you for your participation. Maybe it's an op of some sort maybe De Beers is behind making them Oh i'm sure he is but my point is people are accepting knock-offs as groovy Yeah No okay And then they're gonna probably do some more fancy stuff to them so they're like multi-colored You know, something you can't do naturally. Natural diamonds do have... They're black, they're pink, they're canary-colored. But let's have something that has got a multi bunch of different colors in it. How about that for an idea? Maybe! So there'll be some really weird stuff coming up. Well maybe that's an exit strategy for us. Maybe we can come up with some rock. I don't think so. It's not on our core competency and our core competency is this though Okay here it comes

3:01:05 We need to get out of here, so if you got a clip let's do it. This is the last clip I'm gonna play okay? It's the last one 19 clip last clip for everybody about black woman complaining black woman on tik-tok Black women she's actually a Native American and she's just irked by the fact that nobody will accept this It confuses me because this group of people likes to talk a lot about white supremacy, but the moment that you see another group of people working to restore who they actually are. Find who they actually are putting together bits and pieces that were stolen from us beaten from us all of a sudden y'all turn into white supremacist yourself

3:01:45 I want everybody to cry for y'all and feel bad on Thanksgiving's day, but y'all are white supremacists yourselves the moment a black person says that they are Native American. Make it make sense! If we're all in this together, as you guys like to say and we're all against white supremacy. If black people say hey there's a possibility that We might actually too be Native American why do y'all meet us with anger hate and rage? Why don't I have open arms and say oh wow You know what this might be can me the case because you know There was a lot of different tribes and the whites did come in and they did do this

3:02:24 to us and they did this to y'all, and let's come together and see where the peace is. No! Y'all don't do that what y'all do? Y'all get mad as fuck because there's a possibility that y'all could be related to black people And that's the problem why? Because white people in the Native American community are in bed together Oh okay... There it is Just to let you know, there's a moment of insanity every show. There is always something for us! Well we're gonna have to keep it for Thursday I got climate change stuff, I got big pharma stuff, I've got Africa stuff We didn't get any of it because of the damn balloon! Balloons... four now and counting Lovely This concludes our broadcast day Of course we return on Thursday with another episode of your media deconstruction

3:03:18 Let me see we have Not quite sure. Corey and Todd with EIB versus DMV? Agenda 31! Oh, that's what it is. We know agenda 31 guys stay with it here at Troll Room dot O Coming to you from the heart of the Texas Hill Country in FEMA region number six in the morning everybody I'm Adam Curry And from northern Silicon Valley where I remain I am John C.

3:04:07 The mandate is over, okay? Is that good enough for you New York City? First I dropped the mandate for celebrities. Remember that? Y'all was buggin'. Then just in November, I dropped it for the rest of y'all except my slaves...I mean city workers Now I don't even need no mandate.

Anyway we just getting started If y'all thought the Vax Mandates was bad Just you wait for Agenda 2030 Mmm mmm mmm You will owe nothing And i will be happy

3:04:56 I am here to discuss the so-called flying saucers. Serene in the assurance of their dominion over this small spinning fragment of solar driftwood... However, there have been a certain percentage of this volume of reports that have been made by credible observers of relatively incredible things It is this group of observations that we now are attempting to resolve Interesting, this is kind of unusual that these pilots saw different things and that is sort of I guess adding to the mystery of all this. They are going to be tracking the object they can't even say exactly what it is gonna track the object until it gets light again or a simulated alien invasion using alien replica vehicles that exist and are already in use they will give me more information in the morning

3:05:49 It's Sunday, right? Yeah. It's Sunday, dumbass! Oh, it's Sunday... Every Sunday after church or church hour. Ooh, Sunday. It's Sunday remember?!
