About this episode

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention issued a domestic malaria alert after five locally acquired cases emerged in Florida and Texas, marking the first U.S. transmission in two decades. This resurgence coincides with the release of millions of genetically modified mosquitoes by Oxitec in the Florida Keys, a project recently expanded by the EPA to include 2.4 billion insects. Critics point to the historical precedent of Bill Gates and his 2009 TED Talk stunt as a symbol of the controversial intersection between private biotech and public health.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. challenged the political establishment during a NewsNation town hall, pledging to ban gain-of-function research while citing laboratory origins for major historical outbreaks. Meanwhile, IRS whistleblower Gary Shapley testified that the Department of Justice interfered with the Hunter Biden investigation, alleging that U.S. Attorney Matthew Graves blocked charges in Washington D.C. In the corporate sector, Anheuser-Busch CEO Brendan Whitworth faced scrutiny over his CIA background following the Dylan Mulvaney marketing crisis, while the European Commission moved forward with a digital euro proposal designed to limit private transactions to 3,000 euros.

President Joe Biden appeared with visible CPAP strap marks and mistakenly claimed Vladimir Putin is losing the war in Iraq during a series of verbal stumbles. Admiral Rachel Levine declared a Summer of Pride in official uniform, sparking a debate over Hatch Act violations and the politicization of gender-affirming care. Producers from Finland to Bangkok supported the broadcast through the Value-for-Value model, including the knighting of Sir Kukaracha of the Northwoods and a $1,000 Bitcoin donation from the Crypto Granny.

Oat Milk Skepticism and Podcast Community Dynamics

Adam Curry and John C. Dvorak open the broadcast from Texas and Northern California, debating the nutritional value and taste of unsweetened oat milk. They observe high levels of activity in the "troll room," noting that listeners are increasingly agitated by global events. The hosts address community feedback regarding show mixes and the prevalence of meme culture among their audience.

00:00 They're out of control. Adam Curry, John C. Dvorak. It's Thursday, June 29th, 2023. This is your award-winning Killmonger Nation Media Assassination Episode 1568. This is no agenda. Laughing at grown men who meme and broadcasting live from the heart of the Texas Hill Country here in FEMA Region Number 6 in the morning, everybody. I'm Adam Curry. And from Northern Silicon Valley, where we've all concluded that oat milk sucks. I'm John C. Dvorak. It's Crackpot and Buzzkill! In the morning! Oh man, I even had a misfire. Oat milk. That's right, it's not sap. Did you have some this morning?

00:41 Jay seems to have picked up some sort of an allergy from the milk normal non a2 milk Oh boy, and so she's drinking. She actually likes oat milk so she Has some oat milk and I say you know the thing is they add sugar to it. That'd be me Yeah, it's no there's no sugar in this where I got the non sugared type Taste it but at any point. Did you tell her she was drinking nut sap because that's just funny. I Well oats are not nuts so it's not nuts. She's not drinking almond milk. It's an oat. Oh, it's not nuts. What is an oat? What is an oat? It's a psychic rain of green green sap. Yeah, so I taste this stuff without sugar unsugared oat milk. Yeah. Oh my god, is it terrible? Okay

01:34 I mean, she should know better. She grew up with you. She should be eating healthy things like, you know, a pancake with a big egg on top. You know, like the Dvorak special with hash browns. Now you're talking. I know. I know. Hey, I'm a healthy man. Bacon. A lot of bacon. You know, I was just looking at the troll room before we started and the trolls are... they're jittery.

02:10 They're out of control. Yeah, there's so much going on in the world that they don't know what to do with themselves. You know, so they meme all day long. I gotta meme, gotta meme, gotta meme, gotta meme. There's some memess, man. And then they say horrible things. You can just tell. What would they say that's horrible? Oh, they're just all like, rap sucks. These show mixes suck. This sucks. Hurry, you suck. Rap sucks. Rap sucks. Wow, that's an original thought. Yeah. So anyway, I understand people are getting all spun up over things. So we're here to spin you down and this was without a doubt the most emailed article of the past few days. The CDC is out with a new health warning after confirming five

CDC Malaria Warning and Historical Context

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention issued a health warning following five confirmed cases of locally acquired malaria in Florida and Texas. These represent the first domestic infections in the United States in 20 years not linked to international travel. Historical data suggests malaria was once a significant plague in the American South before mosquito abatement programs and swamp drainage effectively eradicated it.

cdc· malaria· florida· texas· mosquitoes

02:54 cases of malaria in the US over the last two months. They are the first malaria infections in 20 years to be acquired locally and not linked to travel outside the country. Four cases are in Florida and one in Texas. The CDC says all of the patients receive treatment and are recovering. Malaria is serious, sometimes deadly disease usually transmitted by mosquitoes. It is not contagious but mothers can pass malaria to their babies during pregnancy. Oh, you can pass it to your babies during pregnancy. Well, I mean this is what immediately happened, of course, which we have been talking about since episode 830. 830, that's what, 2015? 2016? So you identified the episode of some... Yeah, I'm not gonna play it, but you know, we've been talking about it that long. It actually goes back much further.

03:47 I'll play this one, this second report, and then we'll go back into the history and we'll talk about what this is and what this isn't. They are the pesky part of summertime fun. From kids' camps to backyard barbecues, mosquitoes are often the unwanted guest. But this morning, the CDC is sending a warning about mosquito-transmitted malaria cases. It comes after state health officials have identified five locally acquired malaria cases in recent weeks. Four in Florida, one in Texas, all transmitted by mosquito bites. What was different about this is

04:22 These happen domestically, meaning people didn't travel abroad and come to the US and then get diagnosed with malaria. Officials say there is no evidence the cases in the two states are linked. In Florida, all four cases were detected in Sarasota County. Now, the entire state is under a mosquito-borne illness advisory. We're really throwing everything we have at the situation right now. Malaria symptoms can be similar to the flu, fever, body aches and chills, as well as headaches and nausea. With an early diagnosis, malaria is treatable with the help of prescription drugs. Now the CDC is urging doctors to be on high alert. We need physicians to understand that they should have some

05:04 suspicion for malaria and it's not difficult to diagnose and it's not difficult to treat. The key, officials say, protection. That includes wearing EPA approved insect repellents, covering up with long sleeves and pants, especially during dawn and dusk when mosquitoes are most active. And getting rid of any standing water where mosquitoes can lay eggs. All right, so, okay, so, oh, five people have malaria. By the way, people used to get malaria in America. Back in a little house on the prairie. She wrote in her book. Oh malaria was a huge plague all the way up through, South Carolina it would the whole now southern area was plagued with malaria How do we area country? How did we get rid of it? Mosquito abatement cleaning up the swamps. There's a lot of ways right so and by the way by the way mm-hmm

05:55 This story, I wonder if just because of the statistics, if there's not at least this many cases of malaria every year for the last decade. Exactly. There's no, this is bullcrap. They probably have two or three cases of malaria in Florida of all places every year. It's just random cases. It's the kind of thing that happens. Of course. What is going on here? Stop. Stop people. Stop calling me. Stop calling me. I can't talk. What are they doing? It's the periodontist calling. I got all kinds of stuff going on, don't worry about it. Turn off the phone. Yeah, I, I, normally, I, I, pot, kettle, hello, block. Thank you for the reminder. I'm gonna go take my phone off the hook. Yes.

Oxitec Genetically Modified Mosquito Releases

Biotech company Oxitec has released millions of genetically engineered male Aedes aegypti mosquitoes in the Florida Keys to combat disease spread. The EPA recently approved the release of an additional 2.4 billion modified bugs in California and Monroe County, Florida. These lab-created insects carry a self-limiting gene designed to kill female offspring before they reach maturity, though critics remain concerned about long-term environmental impacts.

oxitec· genetically modified organisms· florida keys· epa· aedes aegypti

06:41 So, but this is what everyone is pointing to. This is 2022. It sounds like something out of a sci-fi movie genetically engineered mosquitoes created in a lab and released in the wild part of an experimental effort to halt the spread of disease. And these biohacked bugs could be followed by billions more. Tonight we're on your side investigating why critics are concerned and why the state is poised to improve to approve even more manufactured mosquitoes. Yes, the manufactured mosquitoes. We all know who did Since 2021, UK-based biotech company Oxitec has released millions of genetically modified male Aedes aegypti mosquitoes in the Florida Keys. And the EPA has approved the release of 2.4 billion more in Monroe County and California under an experimental use permit.

07:30 The lab-created male bugs carry a self-limiting gene, which is intended to kill biting females before they mature. It's kind of a just-add-water scenario. Chad Huff with the Florida Keys Mosquito Control District says the hope is that males pass the gene to enough females to decimate the population. The male mosquitoes, they don't bite. They never take a blood meal from a human at all. They survive on nectar. They don't even have the mouth parts that make it able. to take blood. He says technicians take the GMO eggs to the property of willing participants and Mother Nature does the rest. We have a waiting list. We have people that want to have them on their property. They see the merit in this and are excited to be on the cutting edge of a technique that in a few years could be everywhere.

08:19 Oxitec says its mosquitoes are safe and the EPA determined there is no risk to people, animals or the environment. They're non-toxic, they're non-allergenic. We have a strong track record of proving these to be effective in Brazil and we saw some great results in the field in Florida last year as well. Oxitec says the genetically engineered mosquitoes disappear in the wild within months. As far as making a super mosquito or crossbreeding, the mosquitoes don't do that and it's basically the chance of that happening is eliminated when it's just a male that is being released. So this story has been around for years and years and years. No one's gotten malaria but now we're all jacked up and oh it's Bill Gates!

CHAPTER 04 / 44 Discussion

Bill Gates 2009 TED Talk Mosquito Incident

Bill Gates famously released a jar of mosquitoes during a 2009 TED conference to illustrate the impact of malaria on poor populations. The hosts revisit this event, questioning the legality of releasing potential disease vectors in a public auditorium for a presentation. The stunt was intended to highlight the disparity between funding for baldness drugs and life-saving malaria research.

bill gates· ted conference· malaria· disease vectors· peta

09:07 I can't live with the mosquitoes! And he's doing it since 2009. This is Bill Gates 2009 at a TED conference. You might remember this one. For example, there's more money put into baldness drugs than are put into malaria. Now, baldness is a terrible thing. And rich men are afflicted. And so that's why that priority has been set. But malaria, even the million deaths a year caused by malaria greatly understate its impact. Over 200 million people at any one time are suffering from it. It means that you can't get the economies in these areas going because it holds things back so much.

09:56 Malaria is transmitted by mosquitoes. I brought some here so you could experience this. We'll let those roam around the auditorium a little bit. There's no reason only poor people should have the experience. So, you remember that? When he actually released all those mosquitoes into the TED conference? Yeah, we discussed the fact that this was illegal. Of course! It's also, I mean, where was PETA? You can't release disease vectors like that in the public for the purposes of whatever purpose. Humor, humor, humor. Humor, yes, humor. And he should have been arrested for it. But people didn't die from malaria or catch malaria.

CHAPTER 05 / 44 Discussion

RFK Jr. on Gain of Function and Vaccine Research

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. pledged to sign a treaty ending all gain-of-function research, claiming it has provided no benefits and may be responsible for various disease outbreaks. He suggests that several major illnesses, including RSV and potentially the Spanish flu, originated in vaccine research laboratories. Kennedy cites the book "The River" to support theories regarding the laboratory origins of HIV and Ebola.

rfk jr· gain of function· biontech· malaria vaccine· rsv

10:46 And there's been report after report throughout the years of these bioengineered mosquitoes. As far as I'm concerned, they don't work at all, you know, but everyone's all jacked up. Oh, this is Gates with his mosquitoes. No. Here's something I think it might be. At the beginning of the year, BioNTech, who doesn't know them, the mRNA dudes, who provide the mRNA for Pfizer, among other vaccines, they started a human trial to test the malaria vaccine. Now this, I think, could be a problem because I'm starting to learn that this, you know, we kind of, we looked a little bit at gain of function and we've been hit over the head with it, to just been beaten like a salmon to the head with a gain of function in the Wuhan lab.

11:38 But this gain of function, i.e. jacking up stuff in order to test it for vaccines, this actually might be something that has been causing and will cause a lot of problems. And I've been following a lot of RFK Jr. stuff, and he had the literal disinfo dozen on a Zoom call. Mercola, Pierre Kory, I mean, all the toppers. all the people we actually respect and he said the winners the winners and he said this I will end all gain of function research I will I will sign a treaty to end gain of function research for you know to get all the nations

12:23 and gaiter function research. It's just a disaster. It's given us no benefits. It's given us everything from Lyme disease to COVID and many, many other diseases that RSV, which is now one of the biggest killers of children, came out of a vaccine lab. And we can go down the whole list of diseases that, you know, down to, and there's good evidence that even Spanish flu came from vaccine and vaccine research. And, you know, we don't know and we'll probably never know, but they, you know, they're very, very strong articles suggesting that now. You know, the medical research on these diseases and vaccine research is actually created

13:13 Some of the worst plagues in our history is anybody who reads the river will come away pretty much convinced that HIV also came from a vaccine program. And there's plenty of evidence of that as well. Bobby J for president! This guy's like listening to 10 years of no agenda. It's phenomenal. HIV and Ebola supposedly came from Fort Detrick. Sure! This doesn't surprise me at all! Well, I like the fact that he shoved RSV in that little list. Yeah, nice, isn't it? Yeah, which another vaccine just came out for. So they're so freaked out about this guy that Fox is really against him. There's a lot of interesting things going on around him. And so I'm watching The Five. I don't have a clip. Oh, okay. But I'm watching The Five and Kaylee McEnany. No, Dana Perino, the Perino girl. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

CHAPTER 06 / 44 Discussion

Media Criticism of RFK Jr. and Big Pharma

Mainstream media outlets, including Fox News and NewsNation, are criticized for their dismissive coverage of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s presidential campaign. The hosts argue that media figures like Dana Perino are beholden to a "Big Pharma cult" due to significant advertising revenue. The discussion highlights the 1986 National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act, which granted pharmaceutical companies immunity from prosecution for vaccine-related injuries.

dana perino· fox news· newsnation· big pharma· liability

14:15 So she says, oh yeah, RFK Jr., he's like, he says some good things, but most of his stuff is looney tunes, she says or something like that. Looney tunes? No! Looney tunes. They just really blasted him good. They're all members of some, whatever the cult is that they have to obey, they do it. It's a big, well first of all, it's the big pharma cults. They can't say any, he's out there just slamming Big Pharma slamming the military industrial complex. He had a town hall on News Nation.

14:55 Yeah, I haven't recorded that. I haven't seen it yet. I have one clip from it. But he's going to be the podcast president. So I have my eye on him and he's also, he went on the Bill Maher podcast as predicted. I have a clip from that. But I mean, truly the things he talks about, it's all no agenda stuff. It really is. I mean, going back 10 years, just all the stuff that we've been talking about, thimerosal and the whole vaccine scam when they got the immunity from prosecution. You don't have to have placebo trials. I mean, the whole big pharma is just

15:34 He's just ripping it apart. Well, we also have to remember you digging up the very early on this is like 12 years ago Yeah, the conference you digging up the report. Yeah from one of the pharma companies showing that this was a Bonanza a bonanza. Yeah, we can make so much money because we know there's no liability We can crank this stuff out. All we need is the propaganda channels and we can make tons of billions of of dollars and it said they just laid it right out and as long as they have this lack of liability where they, who gives a crap if it kills everybody? Because we're not liable because of the government that picks up the tab on this So it's really interesting some that's really the problem by the way. Well, there's but it's interesting to see what's happened in You know a relatively short amount of time. Let me see 13. No, well 20 years to me relatively short

CHAPTER 07 / 44 Discussion

Thimerosal Controversy and 2005 RFK Jr. Interview

A 2005 interview featuring Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Chuck Scarborough on MSNBC is revisited, where they discussed the link between thimerosal and rising autism rates. Scarborough noted his own son's Asperger's diagnosis coincided with the expansion of the CDC vaccine schedule in 1989. The segment notes that major publications like Salon and Rolling Stone eventually retracted Kennedy's articles on the subject under pressure.

thimerosal· autism· chuck scarborough· msnbc· mercury

16:28 But back when MSNBC started, when was MSNBC, when did that start? Was that 2005, around that time? 2004, maybe a little earlier? I actually worked for them. I wouldn't boast about that. This is before they were MSNBC today. The original MSNBC was kind of a tech-oriented... Right, it was Microsoft Network. Yeah, it was NBC and Bill Gates' stuff. I mean, even I worked for their launch. My company did the chat room for them because Microsoft servers couldn't handle it. You get this thing about chat rooms I'm so so so regretful about him, but back then I think this was 20 2005 RFK jr. Came out with this whole thing Talking and he was connecting autism to the vaccines to fight if they mirror saw

17:20 And it was, and here's, I gotta play, this was on No Agenda Social. I love that someone dug this clip up. This is Chuck Scarborough, who I'm sure is calling RFK Jr. a nut job anti-vaxxer today. In fact, I could probably just drop a needle in any YouTube clip and find him saying that. Back then no, oh, it's Bobby. How you doing? The kids are dying. What's going on? It's as heart-wrenching as it gets autism and children six out of every thousand kids get it and nobody knows exactly why but my next guest says He's got part of the blame that he that he thinks needs to fall on government And it has to do with a drug called for Marisol Robert F. Kennedy jr Attorney for what he called it a drug. Oh, yeah

18:09 It's so incredible what the difference between then and now. First of all, let me say that the deadly immunity piece on thimerosal is also running on salon.com simultaneously the two magazines. By the way, this piece ran on Salon, Rolling Stone, etc. They pulled it. They pulled it within a day from all of those publications. You cannot find, you can't even find on archive.org. It's so bad they pulled this. At the same time, my new book is St. Francis of Assisi, A Life of Joy. It's a children's book. I grew up reading books about the saints, but I couldn't find one that would hold my computer-age children's attention. And so

19:05 I tried to write a book that had the kind of action and you know Engaging story that would also teach them the values and it's done very very happy back to the drug We want to get you back to talk about that, but let's talk tonight about the Mirosol There are a lot of people out there when I was practicing law in fact I need to say this we actually practice in the same law firm no lawsuits Regarding who even knew that Chuck Scarborough and RFK jr. In the same law firm This is an incredible piece of history the mirror saw so we can get that off the record, but still There are a lot of people, a lot of Americans, very concerned about the impact of this drug which is found in vaccines and how it causes autism. It's mercury, it's not a drug, it's mercury.

19:53 It's a preservative that contains mercury. Correct. In vaccines and how it causes autism. Talk about it. They say, thimerosal is a preservative that was put in vaccines back in the 1930s. Almost immediately after it was put in, autism cases began to appear. autism had never been known before. It was unknown to science. Then the vaccines were increased in 1989 by the CDC and by a couple of other government agencies. Let me stop you there. That's an important date, and I'll tell you why. My son, born in 1991, has a slight form of autism called Asperger's. But it seemed to, and again, when I was practicing law, and also when I was in Congress, parents would constantly come to me, and they'd bring me videotapes of their children, and they were all around

20:39 the age of my son are younger. Something happened in 1989. Exactly. What happened was the vaccine schedule was increased. We went up from receiving about 10 vaccines in our generation to these kids receive 24 And they all had this thimerosal in them, this mercury, and nobody bothered to do an analysis of what the cumulative impact of all that mercury was doing to kids. As it turns out, we are injecting our children with 400 times the amount of mercury that FDA or EPA considers safe. A child on his first day that he's born is injected with a hepatitis B shot.

21:20 under EPA guidelines he would have to be 275 pounds to safely absorb that shot. And yet we're just constantly pumping our kids with these vaccines. What happened was that in 1988 One in every 2,500 American children had autism. Today, one in every 166 children have autism. And plus, one in six children have other kinds of learning disorders, other kinds of neurological disorders, speech delay, language disorders, ADD, hyperactivity, that all seem to be connected, that are all connected. Yeah, so that goes on and on and on. It's like a 10-minute piece. It's unbelievable, particularly for Chuck Scarborough. His own kid was injured by these things.

22:04 But oh no, now, hey Bobby, oh he's an anti-vaxxer, he's a crazy man, he's nuts. He's looney tunes, looney tunes. That's how powerful Big Pharma is and what, and it's a part of that piece that got... And by the way, we should give you a borderline clip on that even though it's... It's from the troll, the No Agenda Social. That's for the producer who posted it in No Agenda Social. That was a great... apparently... Very good find. He posted it on Twitter and he got put in Twitter jail for a little bit for posting that. For posting that clip? That clip, yeah. All they did... that's just a clip that exists in... that's a real clip. A real clip, yeah. Yeah, we can't have that. And you get put in Twitter jail because you posted a real clip. According to our producer, yes. And so... I believe it. That article contained a transcript of a hidden recording of the Samson Wood conference

22:58 where a whole bunch of doctors and pharmaceutical executives and doctors and researchers along with HMOs, they all got together and they all said, yeah, crap, this stuff is crossing the blood-brain barrier and it's causing autism. It's in the transcript. You can read it. And so I was able to get that. I put that in the show notes. So this is not like, it's not an unknown thing, but over time, Big Pharma just took over, just advertised you to death with it. now we don't even really remember. Whatever, anti-vaxxer, anti-vaxxer. Jenny McCarthy, she's nuts. Jenny McCarthy, nut job. They excoriated her so badly that her ex-husband doesn't even like her anymore because of that. Jim Carrey. And at first he was all in, then he was like, oh no, oh no, oh no. Anyway, so

CHAPTER 08 / 44 Discussion

NewsNation Town Hall and RFK Jr. Political Strategy

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. participated in a NewsNation town hall where he addressed claims that his candidacy serves as a "spoiler" for Joe Biden. He refused to personally attack Donald Trump, instead emphasizing his goal of bridging the national divide through common-sense populism. Kennedy shared a personal anecdote about his father's 1968 funeral train to illustrate his ability to appeal to both urban and rural voters.

newsnation· elizabeth vargas· donald trump· populist· 1968 election

23:55 RFK Jr. does a town hall on News Nation. And I mean to think, who owns News Nation? News Nation is... I'm trying to figure this out. I already brought this up a few shows ago. But it's owned by Tribune, I think. WGN, it's a former national WGN, which still does exist as WGN, but now it's just back to local. It's the old WGN network that has been upgraded since the Tribune has been bought and sold and bought and sold now it's owned by these guys who want to do more with it. But all I can say is it's a Tribune Chicago Tribune. Yeah, but it's owned by also some rich Texas families. Yeah, it's a group of people that own the Tribune now.

24:38 Well, there must be an interesting group for them to bring him on. And he does, I just have one clip from this town hall, he does something really interesting here as, of course, the News Nation news model tries to kind of, you know, trip him up, get him into the game, Come on, man. You're not fighting fair. You got to do it the right way. You say that you're a Democrat, but you're getting a lot of support from a lot of leading voices on the right like Steve Bannon, Tucker Carlson, Alex Jones, former president of the Donald Trump. Okay, so yeah, I know you hate memes, but there's a bunch of it, but memes are interesting. I don't hate them I just hate people who do dumb memes a lot. Oh, that's most memes, but there's some great There's some memes showing up now, and I have one of them I was gonna put it I didn't put in the news You need to post that everywhere

25:32 A lot! A lot! So the meme shows it's got Kennedy holding a sign saying, I'm a lunatic and I'm not a Democrat. I'm a Republican. I'm being used by the Republicans to take votes away from good old Joe Biden. It's exactly what she's saying here. She is a dank meme. Okay, so that means that this is a Democrat strategy. That's what they make him look like he's not a reply. This guy, give me a break. This guy is such a debt. This is a born and died Democrat.

26:08 Period. Old school, old school. Old school Democrat. He would do nothing to help the Republican Party ever. Ah, but they have, they've spun this into a strategy. Listen. You say that you're a Democrat, but you're getting a lot of support from a lot of leading voices on the right, like Steve Bannon, Tucker Carlson, Alex Jones, former President Donald Trump. Many Democrats fear that you're a spoiler in the race, that you will damage President Biden in the primary and grease the skids for former President Trump to... Grease the skids! ...to return to the Oval Office. This week, former President Trump said about you, Kennedy is smart and he's a common sense guy.

26:48 What kind of man do you think Donald Trump is? Oh yeah, now you see what she's trying to do here. Like, come on man, come on. This is the whatever Trump says, you know, it's the opposite. Of course. So if Trump says something complimentary about you, it's gotta be bad. You're a bad guy. Common sense guy. What kind of man do you think Donald Trump is? Well, you know, here's what I'm not going to do in this race. I'm not going to attack other people personally. I don't think it's good for our country. And I think, you know, what I'm trying to do in this race is bring people together, is to try to bridge the divide between Americans. And guess what? The, you know, when my dad died and we took this train ride from, you know, this seven and a half hour train ride that was supposed to be two hours. I brought his, I was with him when he died in Los Angeles and then we brought his body. I didn't actually know that. I didn't know that he was there when he was shot.

27:45 at the hotel. Did you know that? No, I did not. Yeah, that's kind of traumatic. And by the way, notice how the news model set him up with Alex Jones, Tucker Carlson, they're all new jobs. Yeah, I know. I see. I haven't, like I said, I recorded this, but I haven't looked at it yet. I had no idea that this was designed to be a takedown. Totally. And he just, he parries it like an expert civil suit fighter. He's from a political family that is so political it's not even funny. You gotta get up early. She's an amateur trying to think she's gonna get some kudos for this. This is, by the way, if I wish I'd heard it now because this is

28:26 I consider this an affront. I thought they were going to do a real town hall, not some sort of a hit job on the guy. No, this is why he's doing podcasts and it's a mistake for him to even do this, but he was ready. He knew it was a mistake. He knew what they were going to do and he's ready and he has great stories. from New York, Penn Station to Union Station and Washington DC. It was a two and a half hour ride but it took seven and a half hours because there were two and a half million people on that train track. And it was a cross section of America and all of the major urban stations in Trenton, Newark, Wilmington and Baltimore, there were black Americans singing Battle Hymn of the Republic and there were whites in the rural areas.

29:13 who are holding up signs, goodbye Bobby, pray for us Bobby, American flag, standing, saluting. Four years later, and they have supported my father in the primaries in 1968. Four years later in 1972, they were not supporting my father and they were not supporting George McGovern, who was aligned with my father on all these issues. Instead, the vast majority of them were supporting George Wallace. And you know, My father was able to harness these populist energies. The last day of his life, he won the most rural state in this country, South Dakota, and the most urban. He was able to bridge the divide among people who would otherwise be Republican, but wanted somebody who was common sense, who was able to appeal to their idealism, who was able to find the hero in each of them, who was able to get them to transcend narrow self-interest.

30:09 and see themselves as part of the community and part of this incredible American adventure in modeling self-governance for the rest of the world. And so I'm proud that President Trump likes me, even though I don't agree with him on most of his issues. Because I don't want to alienate people. I want to bring people together. I'm proud that all these people like me and that I have independent supporters and democratic supporters. and that I'm able to bring a lot of people. Every Democrat says, I want to end the polarization. But how do you do that without talking to people who don't agree with you? How do you do that without appealing to people? My purpose is to find the issues of values that we have in common rather than focus on the issues and the personalities that keep us all apart.

31:02 So he walked all over the news model, the inexperienced news model, and did a great job. I mean, no matter what she tried, he just had something. He was, man, the voice, I think it's actually a superpower. Because it's so hard to listen to you have to listen to it Yeah, well there is this element of the people talking low and doing all these different tricks to make you just strain to listen to them Yeah, and that is I wouldn't call it a superpower, but it's an advantage in some funny way I think overall it's a disadvantage because he would love to be an orator. Yeah. He was he wasn't order He used to do a lot of speeches back in the day, and you know now he has to

Donald Trump and Brett Baier Vaccine Exchange

Donald Trump defended his administration's "Operation Warp Speed" during an interview with Brett Baier, claiming he "broke the ass" of the FDA to deliver vaccines in nine months. Trump acknowledged that the topic is difficult for Republicans because the base is deeply divided on the issue. He claimed a friend told him he saved 100 million lives, yet he remains hesitant to tout the achievement at rallies.

donald trump· brett baier· fox news· covid-19 vaccine· fda

31:43 scrunch through his discussions in a way that's painful to listen to, but... I'm shocked. I thought they were gonna do a legitimate town hall, not some sort of a hit job. Now compare that answer... Very disappointing news... what was it? News Nation. That's like the Cuomo group. Chris Cuomo is on. So compare how he wheels off that attack to President Trump who gets I mean he should, I guess this is his standard. He was ready for this question from Brett Baier. But man, and this is a question that a lot of real Trumpers all around Hill Country, this is the one thing they have a problem with, is about the COVID vaccines. Brett Baier really gives him a softball.

32:41 And this is how we answered it. and then you have different COVIDs. But we had original was COVID-19, which was the roughest one. So I have a Democrat friend who's very smart. Hopefully he votes for me, but he's very smart. He said, I don't understand one thing about you. I watch your rallies. They're incredible. You talk about beating ISIS. You talk about taxes. You talk about regulation. You talk about everything.

33:21 But you never saw or said that, I've never heard you talk about how the incredible job you did with the vaccines because as you know, I got them done in nine months and it was supposed to take anywhere from five to 12 years. I broke their ass, okay? And you know who doesn't like me too much? The FDA. Because they were very bureaucratic and I got it done. And he said, You may have saved in the world, throughout the world, a hundred million people and you never talk about it. I said, I really don't want to talk about it because as a Republican, it's not a great thing to talk about because for some reason, it's just not. For some reason? Yeah, for some reason. Because people love the vaccines and people hate the vaccines. No, no, no. No, no, no. Wow. That's not the answer people are looking for.

Ron DeSantis Heckled at Campaign Event

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis was confronted by a heckler during a stump speech who called him an "establishment" candidate. The hosts play a clip of the awkward exchange, noting the lack of audience enthusiasm when DeSantis asked for a show of hands from supporters. There is brief speculation regarding whether the audio of the encounter might be a deepfake.

ron desantis· heckling· 2024 election· campaign trail· deepfake

34:08 In fact, if he just said, you know what, I got hoodwinked. He's never going to do that. Say the FDA hates him? The FDA loves him for that. That was a multi-billion dollar bananza. Now, just for a moment, just to contrast all of that, Ron DeSantis, who is, I guess he's doing some stump speeches, he's in an auditorium. The mic opens up, here's what the first comment is. Just came here to let you know that you'll never be our president. You're just another establishment little bitch. Thank you. Well, okay, let's not, let's just, some people are actually here to see me, you know? Some people actually like me. For instance, show of hands everybody, how many of you are actually going to vote for me?

34:57 One guy. Okay, I guess this is just really awkward. This may be a deep fake, but it doesn't matter. I just love someone calling him a little bitch. Then we have, it's so funny, RFK Jr. goes on Bill Maher, and Bill Maher, I would say, is also an old school Democrat. And they agree on almost everything. He's an old school liberal. Liberal, yes. And they agree on a lot of things. Marr, very annoying. Oh goodness. You give that guy two hours and he's more annoying than the show. He interrupts continuously and he's, you know, I have nothing against people smoking weed but he loses his train of thought all the time. Like, I forgot what I was talking about. But here's just a small, and this is a snide way of saying

CHAPTER 11 / 44 Discussion

RFK Jr. on Bill Maher and J. Edgar Hoover

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. appeared on Bill Maher's podcast to discuss his father's contentious relationship with FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover. Kennedy recounted how his father, as Attorney General, used a buzzer to summon Hoover to his office to assert authority over the bureau. He also described the cold, matter-of-fact tone Hoover used when calling to report the assassination of John F. Kennedy in 1963.

bill maher· j. edgar hoover· fbi· robert f. kennedy· blackmail

35:51 I know how the deep state works and I'll screw the deep state as topic comes up of J. Edgar Hoover, who of course ran the FBI during Johnson and before. And you know, J. Edgar Hoover, not a good guy. We know he was a blackmailer. We know he's done all kinds of, you know, sex blackmail, anything he could do. Just any original transsexual, black as well. Did you know he was black? What? J Edgar Hoover was black. Yeah, people don't know. This I did not know. Is there any evidence of this? Moe has presented this evidence quite convincingly. He was a passing black man.

36:37 We only see him in black and white photos. But yes, this and I think Moe is correct. So I'll take Moe's word for it anyway, so here he is with a little story about his dad when he was Attorney General and The director of FBI who of course works for the Attorney General in theory when Johnson took over did he? Keep your father on as Attorney General. Yeah, my father stayed for one and resigned and He stayed until he was going to run for Senate. So he stayed on, but he didn't really go to work. And also, you know, half of his employees at the Justice Department were FBI agents who worked for Hoover. And he had a buzzer on his desk for Hoover, which nobody had ever done. He actually treated Hoover as his, Jay Andrew Hoover as his employee.

37:27 And no other attorney general had ever dared to do that. And I went up there, me and my brothers would go up there and push the button, and Hoover would have to come up, and he would be very, very pissed off. And I was in Hoover's— But that wasn't a smart thing to do. No. No. I mean, one time— No, I mean, no, to humiliate Hoover. He wasn't humiliating him. He was trying to bring him— under control, because he had become a power to himself. And my father was, you need to report to the Attorney General, I'm your putative boss and I am your actual boss. So the second, as soon as Jack was killed, it was J. Edgar Hoover who called my father and told him that his brother had been shot. And an hour later he called him and told him his brother was dead.

38:20 And my father was told, a friend of his, he said the way, the tone that he used when he told me that was the same tone that he would use, kind of a matter-of-fact tone that he would use if he had discovered a communist on the faculty of Emory University. You know, that he would call him up for that. So it was like, it was a message. And then after that, he never spoke to my father again. Kennedy is dangerous to these people. He's very, very dangerous. Oh yeah, he's a lot more dangerous than Trump will ever be. Yes sir. Yes sir. I love listening to his stories. I could listen to him. He's got a million stories. It's really quite compelling. Finally, something different. And that's why Dana Perino, you know, Miss Fox over there, she, whoa,

CHAPTER 12 / 44 Discussion

Paul Ryan and the "Not Named Trump" Strategy

Former Speaker of the House Paul Ryan appeared on CNBC to advocate for any Republican candidate "not named Trump" to lead the 2024 ticket. Ryan, who now sits on the board of Fox Corporation, argued that Trump is unfit for office and cannot win a general election against Joe Biden. The hosts find Ryan's refusal to name a specific alternative, such as Ron DeSantis, to be a bizarre political strategy.

paul ryan· fox corp· cnbc· donald trump· gop primary

39:14 Looney Tunes! Looney Tunes! But if you look at the field, now Paul Ryan, never Trumper, who is now on the board of Fox. Funny how that works, isn't it? And if, and you know, my... Not that funny. Well, no, but my theory here is, you know, Rupert Murdoch is, his whole job is to bring in Ronnie, Ronnie D, Rhonda, Rhonda DeSantis, Rhonda Santas. He can't even, he doesn't want Trump. He can't even bring himself to use Ron DeSantis his name. That's how bad it is right now Listen to this. This is on CNBC. I'm for anybody not named Trump right now anybody not named Trump anybody not named RFK anybody not named Canada Republican not me for any Republican not named Trump because I think we beat Biden for sure if we nominate a Republican not need any idea who you think could get the

40:12 I mean, everybody's down by 40 points. We're going to find out. Look, Donald Trump and Joe Biden have a symbiotic relationship with each other. They make the best case for each other's candidacies. And it's a total disaster for our country. In a country of 350 million people, you think we can get somebody else. you win if you nominate somebody not named Trump? I do. Because you make everybody who was supporting Trump very mad. Yes, so like I'm a never again Trumper so obviously that 33% Trump base doesn't like a person like me because I'm very clear I don't think he's fit and I don't think he can win. Liz is right he could and that's dangerous. I mean yet you think he could even populate a cabinet? He could get through the Senate? I mean it could be a total disaster. But I believe strongly if we nominate a Republican not named Donald Trump we win this White House.

40:53 All they can say is not name Trump. Who do you want? Someone not named Trump. How about... No, someone not named Trump. Anyone not named Trump. How about saying Ron DeSantis, the guy you're supposed to get in there? This is very bizarre. I've never witnessed this. Yeah, what was that? Were you played? That's Paul Ryan. That's Paul Ryan saying not name Trump? Anybody not name Trump. Who do you want in there? Anybody not name Trump. You know if we had someone in there not name Trump, what? There's something screwed up in the system. Something's wrong with that guy. Well something's wrong with the whole system.

CHAPTER 13 / 44 Discussion

Trump Audio Tape and Iran Attack Plan

The Department of Justice released an audio recording of Donald Trump discussing a sensitive Defense Department plan regarding a potential attack on Iran. The recording, made at Trump's Bedminster golf club, appears to show him acknowledging the document remained classified. The hosts suggest the document was likely authored by General Mark Milley and that the DOJ is hesitant to use it as formal evidence to avoid discovery.

jack smith· department of justice· iran· mark milley· classified documents

41:33 And then the Department of Justice, I guess, releases some audio tape, which of course was given to them by the people who interviewed Trump for this article and book or whatever. And it becomes, you know, Anderson Cooper, oh, he's confessing himself out of his own mouth that he took documents about the Iran invasion, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. So even Pixie Girl over on the CIA broadcasting systems has to bring the story, but in it she says it's not even a part of the case.

42:12 It's bull crap. It's just filling air time. Today, the former president defiant on the campaign trail. We did nothing wrong. This is a whole hoax. After CBS News and other media outlets obtained an audio recording where the former president two years ago allegedly shared with a group at his New Jersey golf club a sensitive Defense Department plan of attack on Iran. It is from Kylie. That's the secret. It's a secret information. Look at this. The recent criminal indictment of the former president for the willful retention of national defense information includes a transcript of the conversation allegedly between Trump, a book writer, a publisher and two staffers. The indictment says none has security clearances. Former senior Justice Department official Tom Dupree. Is it reasonable to believe the special counsel has interviewed

43:03 those individuals. I think there's a very, very good chance that he has. They were witnesses to the alleged criminal activity. They can help fill in some of the gaps. What documents did the president show? The audio recording appears to contradict Trump's explanation that there was no classified Iran document. We had a lot of papers a lot of paper stacked up in fact you could hear the rustle of the paper And nobody said I did anything wrong Trump has consistently said he declassified all the records he took from the White House, but in the recording No, I can't. I think that the special counsel will be able to use this recording very effectively before a jury because he can argue that they've captured on tape the defendant narrating his own alleged criminal activity.

43:53 And CBS News has learned that Trump has not been charged for keeping the document he's talking about on that tape. Special Counsel Jack Smith's office declined to answer our questions about the Iran memo or the audio tape. Trump has pleaded not guilty to all charges. Nora. So they do a minute and a half about this tape and this document and then well but he's not being charged with it. What? This is... Yeah, they're going out of their way not to charge anything to do with that document because they don't want to put it as evidence. Because it's real. You know it's real. It's got to be real. Of course it's real. It was written by Miley. Yes. At the request of I don't know who and or himself you know he was kind of a freelancer still working there I don't know why and

44:41 It's interesting. I remember during our show it was discussed that this attack on Iran was discussed. Yeah, but they had an actual document. Trump, and you listen to the tape, he's showing you then the document. He says, no doubt about it. But it's not... No, no, no, no. Yeah, no discovery, please. We can't actually have that come out. That would be rather embarrassing. Especially because it was Miley who was the military industrial complex who was setting it up. West Clark 7, baby. Now, I have one more clip here. We have to... I'm not sure how to deconstruct this. This was Harry Smith. What's he NBC? I think he's... Harry Smith? Is he CBS? CBS. CBS. Listen to this bit. Harry Smith? I thought he was long retired. Maybe he's... It's Harry Smith? Well, that's what the clip... Yeah, it's Harry Smith the bald guy.

CHAPTER 14 / 44 Discussion

Reuters Report on Congressional Slaveholder Ancestry

A Reuters investigation revealed that at least 100 members of the last sitting Congress have direct ancestors who were slaveholders. The report noted that every living U.S. president except Donald Trump shares this lineage. The hosts question the timing and purpose of the report, suggesting it is an attempt to use generational history to influence modern political perceptions.

reuters· slavery· congress· donald trump· genealogy

45:34 Maybe this is a special report by his voice. Yes, this is like a special report and it's about the heritage of members of Congress and it's very odd. I'm not sure how to read this. Oh yeah, this came, I, yeah, this is peculiar. I know what you're going to play and it's, I didn't have any, I didn't have any, I didn't want to slip it in the shirt because I, you're right, it's kind of baffling. We're in Portsmouth, Virginia with black history scholar, Cassandra Newby Alexander. Through public documents and family records, a Reuters examination discovered at least 100 members of the last sitting Congress had direct family ancestors who were slaveholders. More than a quarter of Republicans, 8% Democrats. So too, every living American president except Donald Trump.

46:26 When you learned that, did it surprise you? Not at all. Power is something that's often inherited. And so is privilege. And those who owned enslaved people were privileged people. Would we be better off as a people, as an American people, if we better recognized the truth of our past? Absolutely. Unequivocally. We have to keep teaching it and putting it in front of the American people. I mean so every single one of the American presidents had slave living had slave owners in their past except Donald Trump. How many living American presidents do we have? Well three for starters. Three? But you understand that's why I didn't understand I didn't understand this this what's the point of this what are they trying to say? Slave owners good? Actually Harry Smith's been moved over to NBC. Yeah that's right.

47:24 I thought it was just a very odd thing to do. I thought it was very odd and what was the point of it? Yeah, I don't understand. I do not understand. To make Trump look like he's the only one that's not. So what? One way or the other, this is generational after, you know, who cares? Yeah, so the media doesn't know what to do. They all want the advertising dollars. They all have their marching orders. We know what Fox's marching orders are. I'm not even sure the MSNBCs and the CNNs of the world, I'm not even sure they know what to do. I mean, it's clear that Biden is, I mean, there's so much coming out, they can't stop the flood. I have some clips of Biden, but I'm

CHAPTER 15 / 44 Discussion

IRS Whistleblower Gary Shapley on Hunter Biden Investigation

IRS whistleblower Gary Shapley testified that the investigation into Hunter Biden was stymied by political interference from the Department of Justice. Shapley alleged that U.S. Attorney David Weiss was blocked from bringing charges in D.C. by Biden-appointed U.S. Attorney Matthew Graves. He further claimed that defense counsel was tipped off about a planned search of a storage unit, ruining the opportunity to seize evidence.

gary shapley· irs· hunter biden· david weiss· matthew graves

48:17 kind of mixed, have mixed feelings about your theory about Biden and mine. What's my theory? Your theory is they're out to get him. You started that, you said that... I started it but I backed off on it. You said that they're out to get Kamala in. Yes, this is the latest, the way I see it. Okay. But your theory, because I was noticing on CBS in particular, they're really going, they're bringing up all the bad stuff about Biden. Yeah. CBS. The other, everyone else seems to be flailing around. It's hard to, I can't get a good handle on, are they going to try to get Biden to resign?

49:04 Well, you go on figures an exit. I guess I'm clip listen to this the Garrett well, there's Gary ship shapely that guy Yeah, the IRS guy. Yeah. Yeah, he was on CBS blasting away at the Biden the whistleblower stuff that whistleblower on against Hunter and then he went on Brett bearer show and With pretty much the same things he said on CBS, but those are the two outlets that gave him this freedom to complain. I have three clips from him. Okay. And his complaints are kind of like, uh, okay, this Gary Shapely intro play this. Is there criminal implications in what you were investigating when it comes to Hunter Biden? Oh, absolutely.

49:53 You know, the most substantive felony charges were left off the table. Which would have been what? Which would have been evasion for 14, false return for 18 and 2019. So as of right now in the information that's been out there in the public, it uses the term in excess of $100,000 for 2017, separately for 2018. The true number is $580,000 of failure to pay for 2017 is $620,000 for 2018. Yet this document puts it close to $100,000. Something I've been complaining about. You've been complaining about that, yes. You don't like those numbers.

50:35 And here is, this one I misspelled, Shibley, it's Gary Shibley on blocks. Oh, I'm sorry, I had number two set, hold on a second. Blocks. But as we moved closer to the election, it just seemed like they kept putting it on the back burner and they eventually didn't allow us to do that search warrant, even though the legal requirements to execute that search warrant were met. And transitioning into another search warrant was on a storage unit in Northern Virginia. And during the day of action on December 8th of 2020, we got updated information that said that records were in that location that would be evidence in this particular investigation. And the prosecutors initially

51:20 were supportive of it and an affidavit was drafted the night of December 8th, 2020 to go forward for approval. Eventually the prosecutors decided they didn't support it. So I called US Attorney David Weiss with my senior executive on the phone and we said we needed to execute this search warrant. He responded that the prosecutors didn't want to and I asked if in 30 days if that storage unit wasn't accessed And that was the deadline for the document request that was served on that day. Then we can execute the search warrant, and he agreed to that. And no sooner had I gotten off the phone with David Weiss had we learned that the prosecutors were informing defense counsel of that storage unit and the evidence that existed there. So it completely ruined our chance to access those unfettered. This guy's boring. He doesn't do it. He needs some excitement in what he's talking about. We don't feel the intrigue. Hold on, let's get this straight. I need some excitement from him.

52:20 He's an IRS lifer. With a badge on his belt. I love that. Yeah, IRS badge. I got a badge. I got to look at my keys. I got a big bunch of keys. And you're expecting him to be like... I'm just saying it's boring. He's a boring interviewer. It's very bad. Yeah, I know. But it's... Yeah, no. So, yeah, it's a problem. But this is what you get for a real whistleblower. Yeah. And here he is. I mean, I could... clip this guy forever but it's all of it's like a little dull but he has this material is like wow what do you this

52:57 After this clip, Big, this is Gar Shapely 2. Try that. All right, Gar. This is a moment in which you're... You wonder why the search engine doesn't work well. Delaware U.S. Attorney David Weiss. Hold on a second. Yes. You've told me over the years that you fix these... I don't fix them at all. I never said that. No. Now, I... Here's... I'll give you my process. Just grind these things out and then I say to myself, I'm going back and I'm gonna spell check the list before I send it off to Adam.

53:36 And then for some unknown reason, I think I've been hypnotized. How's that working out? It's okay. I don't do it. Luckily we have AI now so we don't have to worry. AI will be able to find these things because it's like, garrshapely. Garshapely, no problem. This is a moment in which the Delaware U.S. Attorney David Weiss, according to you, had made this disclosure on October 7th, 2022, meeting with top IRS and FBI officials saying what? So, I was there and I witnessed this personally and he started with, he's not the deciding person on whether or not charges are filed or not. Not the deciding person on whether charges are filed with Hunter Biden? That's correct. Who was? So, ultimately this, if you follow the path of where the venue leads you,

54:23 They went to the DC US Attorney's Office in March of 2022, and they presented this case to them. At the same time as that was occurring, they requested discovery from the agents, which is a typical step when they're getting ready to charge. Now, I wasn't in those meetings. I asked to be in those meetings, as did the case agent. So we didn't help present to them. But after that occurred, he was no longer looking to charge in that district. That's earth shattering news. Biden appointed DC US Attorney Matthew Graves would not allow him to charge in his district. So I didn't learn that fact until October 7th of 2022. So looking back to March of 2022, and that's when David Weiss in October 7th, 2022 said,

55:13 that the DC US Attorney's Office will not allow us to charge there. And then he added that he would request special counsel, he requested special counsel authority and was denied in that meeting. I even had him repeat that because I knew how important that fact was and I wanted to make sure I understood it. You were there and you remember it crystal clear in your mind. Not only do I remember it crystal clear, but I documented it. The email that's in exhibit in the House Ways and Means Committee testimony was when I returned home that evening, I documented it in an email. And it's an exhibit, you can look right on there. And I sent that email to two senior executives, one of which was at that meeting. And I said, is this accurate reflection of what occurred during the meeting? And the response was, you covered it all.

56:04 Alright, what did that mean? Because I was snoring. What it means is that there was something out of the blue, everything was ready to go. Yeah, and then all of a sudden someone pulled the cord. Some, let's say a spook walked in and said, hey, this guy's working for us. This has been my thesis all along. And you can't do this, so stop. And they put a stop to it. To add to a little more dimensionality to this, your thesis that they're gonna have to get rid of Hunter first. They gotta kill Hunter somehow. Overdose, easy. Well, suicide. Suicide, overdose. Or overdose, either one. He could get ingested into a jet engine.

CHAPTER 16 / 44 Discussion

Joe Biden CPAP Use and Political Succession

The White House confirmed that President Joe Biden has begun using a CPAP machine to treat sleep apnea after reporters noticed strap marks on his face. The hosts speculate on Biden's health and longevity, suggesting a potential political strategy where he wins re-election and then resigns in favor of Kamala Harris. They also discuss the potential for a "sympathy vote" following a hypothetical family tragedy involving Hunter Biden.

joe biden· cpap· sleep apnea· kamala harris· 2024 election

56:50 That seems to be the new suicide way these days. Well, hold on. Let's just... Too much work. First you gotta find a jet engine, you gotta get on the tarmac. Private jet! No private jet! He was going on the private jet, his buddy's private jet sucked into the engine. It could happen. I think they're setting up President Biden for the death of And it's this story in particular that made me think that. The White House says President Biden has recently started using a CPAP machine, which helps people with sleep apnea. The condition affects 30 million Americans, according to the American Medical Association. And PRS Diva Shivaram has more. The White House disclosed that Biden was using a CPAP machine after reporters noticed he appeared to have marks on his face from straps used to hold an air pressure mask in place.

57:41 CPAP stands for continuous positive airway pressure. Biden's past medical reports, as recently as 2019, mentioned sleep apnea, but his medical reports while president have not. Biden's health is being closely scrutinized by voters as well as by his political opponents because at 80, he is the oldest president in US history. Polls show some voters are concerned that he is too old to effectively carry out a second term in office. Deepa Shivaram, NPR News. Now a couple things about this. Well the first thing about this is it wasn't a CPAP machine, it was a ball gag. Yeah that was my punchline and you just didn't really deliver it right. And by the way that gag came from, and I'm gonna call you out on this, I know where you got that joke. I had the joke in my mind already, I had it from the minute I got the clip.

58:34 The joke came from a meme on No Agenda Social. Oh really? I did not see that. Here's what I wanted to say about it. I have friends who have CPAP machines. I've never seen them with a strap mark indent on their face in the morning. They've stayed at my house just as recently as last week. No! That's bullcrap. Something else going on. It must have been emergency oxygen or something. He's gonna die. It's the only solution. The only way to get rid of it is to get rid of all the evidence, and the evidence is Hunter and Joe. How about this? I mean, I hate to be ghoulish about it, but it just sounds like it. They've been very good. I'm sticking with the Democrats on this. Biden has been doing this for 50 years. He knows how to do this.

59:28 And he's still, I'm sticking with the Vigante idea where he's just pretending to be a dummy. I have clips here where he shows it off. It's gonna happen to Hunter just before the election. It's gonna make everybody so sad. Oh yes, he loves his son. This October surprise. Republicans have driven him to suicide. By ingestion into a jet engine. Without the jet engine. Come on, that's the best kind. It's not gonna happen that way. There's no way. It's cool.

1:00:08 So yeah, it might be, but chopped up into pieces. It's better than the wood chipper. It's the new mafia. That's how the mob does it these days. It's different. It's different these days. And it would get him the sympathy he needs to go over the top and win the election and take a bunch of Democrats with him. The Republicans... Well, where's Kamala then? Where's Kamala in your story? The Republicans thwarted again. I'm just gonna say it right now. Just as I did with Trump. I'll tell you where Kamala is two months into it after he gets elected he quits Resigns and gives it to Kamala because he's too old boom she gets in she'll be in there for three years and get reelected Wow all right, I'm just gonna say right now. I think Bobby Kennedy jr. Has a real shot at

Joe Biden Verbal Gaffes and Iraq Confusion

President Joe Biden mistakenly stated that Vladimir Putin is "losing the war in Iraq" while attempting to discuss the conflict in Ukraine. The hosts review several recent verbal stumbles, including jumbled remarks about the Inflation Reduction Act and coal-fired power plants. They use AI speech enhancement technology to attempt to clarify the President's slurred speech during a press gaggle near a helicopter.

joe biden· iraq· ukraine· vladimir putin· inflation reduction act

1:00:51 And the reason I say that is not because of the news nation town halls or anything like that. He is going where the people are. The people are tuning out. They don't care about the mainstream. Anything can still be rigged with the elections. I'm not sure how he gets past the Democratic Party apparatus. Rigging. Rigging apparatus to become the candidate. I think he has, as the podcast presidential candidate, I think he has a real shot. I really do. I think he has a real shot. I know you think I'm dreaming. You are. But I think he has a real shot. Well, you said the same about Trump when I said Trump could do it. And he did.

1:01:33 That was some time ago before the rigging got... What do you mean? With the rigs? The rigging just started? Please, please. These elections have been rigged for a long time. Long, long time. Let's listen to some Biden stuff. All right. I got... Start with this one. This one's, again, I'm misspelling. It says Vidin. Oh, okay. But this is a good jumble of just miscellaneous nonsense. Well, guess what? Less than a guy driving a truck hit a, anyway, knocked down a whole bridge and the whole block, four lanes of the highway. Today with the help of the Inflation Reduction Act, a new plan is being built. Three quarters of U.S. industries grew more consecrated.

1:02:23 I'm thinking I didn't go to mass. That's a good one. That's a good little jumble he's got going on there. Wow. Your president. Here's the Biden clip. Need the money botch. But if you're a two if you're a two star, if you're a family that's a two wage earner, each of the parents, one making 30 grand, one making 40 or 50. Maybe that's a little more than well, yeah, they need the money. Okay, where do you get these from who's watching these this is no all over the place is horrible I bite in on this one. Here's these kind of telling it like it is this is his Biden on coal You're not gonna see anybody building a new coal-fired plant in America Not just because I'd like to pass a law to say that it's too expensive It doesn't work anymore

1:03:17 That doesn't work. That's just a lie. That's just a lie. What doesn't work is your windmills. They don't work. That's too expensive. And then there's this one. This one got a lot of play. This is the least of the... This is the least interesting. This is where he's just talking to some reporters as he leaves. And he says, Iraq and so on. Yeah, I mean, I didn't even clip this. It was so uninteresting. It's alright. It's alright. To what extent has Vladimir Putin been weakened by recent events? It's hard to tell, but he's clearly losing the war in Iraq. He's losing the war at home. And he is...

1:03:52 It's become a bit of a cry around the world. It's not just NATO, it's not just the European Union, it's Japan, it's, you know, it's 48 countries. This is why I didn't clip it because of the crappy helicopter noise. It's inaudible. It doesn't work. You get a point off for that. Minus one. I wanted to ask you about the Hatch Act again, because something happened during the summer of pride That and it started off with you know a little hippie dippy cool little clip on Twitter No one watches the whole thing It's Admiral. That's the whole thing. What do you mean? This is Admiral Levine? Admiral Levine did a summer of pride yes Admiral Rachel Levine did a summer of the dude who

Admiral Rachel Levine and the "Summer of Pride"

Admiral Rachel Levine, Assistant Secretary for Health, released a video declaring a "Summer of Pride" alongside transgender activist Ryan Cassata. The hosts debate whether Levine's official appearance in uniform to discuss "anti-trans legislation" constitutes a violation of the Hatch Act. They analyze the rhetoric used in the video, specifically the term "transgender liberation movement" and the politicization of gender-affirming care.

rachel levine· hhs· hatch act· pride month· ryan cassata

1:04:43 Did a summer of pride- Please. No, it's- Admiral Levine annoys me. I'm a psycho. Go. Now, would Admiral Levine be allowed to have any political speech? a representative of government. Yeah. Could Admiral Levine do that or would that be a violation of the Hatch Act? No, it's not a violation of the Hatch Act. She's not doing it on company time. What if she is doing it on company time? What if it's in this official video of the Summer of Pride in his position as Admiral Levine? Was it partisan?

1:05:23 Yes, completely partisan. Well, okay, so you're telling me that while on the job... In uniform. Yeah. While on the job, in uniform. Because the legs look super hot, Admiral. You got hairy legs! Well, play the clip. Okay, it's... Okay, so I'm gonna play the opening. This is Admiral Levine who brings in a child. The child is... Let me see, what's the child's name? Ryan Quesada, who has been trained, admits to being trained as a political operative to push the trans agenda. And there are some amazing things that the Admiral says in this clip which I believe completely violate not just the Hatch Act but the whole spirit of working for the American people.

1:06:18 Hello, my name is Admiral Rachel Levine and I have the honor of being the Assistant Secretary for Health at the United States Department of Health and Human Services. Happy Pride! Happy Pride Month and actually let's declare it a Summer of Pride. Happy Summer of Pride. It's so important to have Pride as a celebration for our LGBTQI plus community and to recognize how far we have come but also how much work we have left to do. So I am so excited to be here with Ryan Quesada to talk about pride, about our community. And so first, let's, why don't you tell us a little bit about your story, Ryan, and all the fantastic work that you're doing. Okay, so Ryan Quesada

1:07:06 It was a girl, has had at least top surgery quite a while ago, maybe four years ago, because Ryan Quesada Has a like a forced musical career singing pride songs kind of like blink-182 type stuff and it's you know, it's With you know with bare chest, you know, the bass player is a dude who's now a girl I mean the whole thing is just what it's a mind bender and now Ryan Casada is sitting there in a suit and tie with big big glasses on big big studious glasses and is following a script which I think they may even be reading off the prompter. Great thank you Admiral Levine. My name is Ryan Quesada. I use he him pronouns and I like to share my pronouns first before I start any conversation. And

1:08:03 I am a singer-songwriter and a transgender activist. I play a lot of protest songs to help the transgender liberation movement. This is new. The transgender liberation movement. That sounds kind of anarchistic. I like it. Transgender liberation movement. And I started my activism when I was 13 years old after getting bullied pretty severely in middle school when I first came out. And from there on I joined the Safe Schools team through the LGBT network on Long Island where I grew up.

1:08:44 And that is where I learned to publicly speak and also learned the education that I needed to be able to go into schools and conferences to carry the message. So that's where this child was programmed and mind-controlled, learned the knowledge on how to be an activist. Yes, you want to say something? Yeah, there are these schools and seminars. It's interesting that You mentioned this earlier about the BLM becoming the... The trans-M. Trans movement, but transgender liberation movement which is

1:09:22 T.L.M. Yes, very good. T.L.M. Yep. From BLM. This is. Now you just change one letter. Boom. You can use the old stuff. Same flags. You can just say flags and bumper stickers. Same bumper stickers. Well, thank you so much for being such a role model and a voice. for the trans community. And this is something just as a side note, for some reason Admiral Levine keeps saying community has to really T has to pronounce the T community community. Well thank you so much for being such a role model and a voice for the trans community. We were talking before about your songs and how they give a message of hope and compassion but also protest. How do you mix all that together?

1:10:10 I left this in just because it's too funny. But again, this is now... So they're leading up to political talking points right here by abusing this child who has clearly been abused by the political system for many years. I think it naturally mixes together as a trans person, as a trans man, I know that My body is politicized, my identity is politicized right now, especially with all of the anti-trans legislation and bills that are happening. I'd say this is political activism here, wouldn't you say? No. No? Not in so far as the hatch act's concerned. Hold on to your hat! Your hatch! Right now in our community, in our country, and

1:10:57 it just naturally flows because the thing that I am most passionate about is helping the transgender community to freedom, really. And that comes through often in my music. Well that's fantastic. You know, we just had Pride at the White House and DC Pride this weekend here. And the President and the First Lady spoke so eloquently about their support for the broader LGBTQI plus community, but particularly for the transgender community, trans youth, their families, their providers. And so, you know, you talked about the challenges that we have in many states across the country for political purposes. What are your thoughts about that? So we're still not at the Hatch Act. It's all about political purposes. It's all about the anti-trans legislation. We're still not at the Hatch Act. Not yet. Not yet. No. No.

1:11:51 I think right now it is more difficult than ever to be trans because of this legislation. And I know, I hear it from trans youth every single day, multiple people, that they are struggling because of the legislation, because of the media, the news. And we need to do everything we can right now so that trans youth can access the care that they need and they deserve. I know that this is life-saving care that is on the line. Absolutely. So, you know, let's talk for a moment about the trans

1:12:33 health care that our community needs and transgender medicine and gender-affirming care. I mean that term is important although our opponents have weaponized it. What do you... Our opponents have weaponized it? Is that not political speech? No. Wow. You have to say the Republicans have weaponized it, the red states have weaponized it, the lousy Republicans, the mega-magas, which is by the way why Jean-Pierre got in trouble because she said mega-mega-Republicans. Where's the mention of Republicanism here? If you say our opponents, that's not good enough? So what? That means that somebody doesn't like them. It could be a Democrat, could be a Republican, could be an Independent. I'm sorry.

1:13:14 I thought the whole thing was disgusting. I really could not... Well, I didn't say it wasn't disgusting, it's just not a violation of the Hatch Act from what I can tell. I thought it came close. I think it's so obvious. I don't even think it's close. Okay, alright, I was wrong. I'm just... Do you have to say it has to be very partisan? Do they say vote Democrat and this won't happen? None of that goes on in this discussion. I thought the opponent's part was enough. But you know... The opponent could be a Democrat. Democrats are all in on this stuff. I take your legal advice on this. I'm not a legal... I'm not an attorney. I only play one on this podcast. That's why I take it. I take it. I take it now.

Arkansas Gender-Affirming Care Law Overturned

A federal judge overturned an Arkansas law that prohibited doctors from providing gender-affirming medical care to minors. The discussion focuses on the legal arguments regarding parental rights and the state's authority to regulate medical procedures for children. The hosts express concern that the legal battle over "cisgendered" versus "transgendered" care may ultimately erode broader parental protections.

arkansas· federal court· parental rights· gender-affirming care· minors

1:14:00 I think ultimately the goal of all of this stuff is just to get hate speech laws on the books. They just really want to shut us up. Everybody. Just shut up. Well there's no doubt about that. But it's like, they don't really care about trans. As long as we can get hate speech laws on the books. That's what it seems to be. That's probably a logic, I think you could say that. They don't care about trans, it's bullcrap. We actually got a very... They care about free speech. Yeah, yeah. We got a very thoughtful dissection of the Arkansas law that, you know, that the judge overturned and in really the interesting part, and you know this is

1:14:44 the law that they put into place, that they enacted, that minors cannot have medical transitions, medical... what is it, what do they call it? Gender affirming care. Medical, you can't have your nuts chopped off if you're a minor and you just happen to be on a whim. And what he says is the interesting argument is about the parents' rights. Yeah, this we talked about on the last... This switcheroo on this parents' rights thing I think is genius. Yeah, and he has a whole breakdown which I don't know if it makes sense for us to discuss it but...

1:15:20 What they're calling standard parental rights is, you know, this, what they're throwing up is not the standard for determining parental rights. But there's a lot of validity to them saying, well, you can have cisgendered medical care if you want a boob job or a butt lift or whatever, so you should be able to have anything. And I think that these states will lose out on this and unfortunately I think parental rights will get lost too. They want your kids. They're smart people on both sides of this and they should be able to fight this off. They want your kids. They want your kids. And it's structural. The Anheuser-Busch CEO, the spook, the spook guy. I think he was put in to make this happen. I mean, he was put into PepsiCo to ruin PepsiCo.

CHAPTER 20 / 44 Discussion

Anheuser-Busch CEO Brendan Whitworth and CIA Background

Anheuser-Busch CEO Brendan Whitworth appeared on CBS to address the ongoing Bud Light sales slump following the Dylan Mulvaney controversy. The hosts highlight Whitworth's eight-year background in the CIA and his subsequent career at PepsiCo. They characterize his interview performance as "spooky" and suggest his appointment may be linked to government interests rather than traditional business management.

brendan whitworth· bud light· anheuser-busch· cia· pepsico

1:16:15 I think he was put into Anheuser-Busch to ruin Anheuser-Busch. And of course Anheuser-Busch is, they're giving away their beer for July 4th. Here, free beer. Just drink it, please. They're giving it away. You can have free beer from Anheuser-Busch. So CBS, Spook Network, brings him on. This guy, and he needs a little brush up on the training, on media training, on how to answer things because it's... Have you seen his head? Huge, isn't it? Well, no, it's Spook head. Oh, it's a spookhead. Total spookhead, spook smile, spook haircut. Oh yeah, he's very spooky. Spook! We should point out that you're a former United States Marine and you were also at the Central Intelligence Agency, the CIA. Correct. So you know a little bit about stress. Just a tiny bit. How did you go from the CIA to Anheuser-Busch? You know, I thought the highest calling...

1:17:06 He doesn't answer the question very well. How do you go from CIA to CEO of Anheuser-Busch? How do you do that? What's the steps? What's the in-between steps? Exactly. How does that happen? Well, his answer is not satisfying. I thought the highest calling that anybody can have is serving the country. But for personal reasons, made the decision after eight years in service of the country. For personal reasons, after eight years, which is not a very long spook career, for personal reasons, i.e. they told me you're going to now be a spook in the field over here.

1:17:47 This is bullcrap. But for personal reasons, made the decision after eight years in service of the country to move into business. For service of the country to move into business? So the way I read that... Oh yeah, you read it right. To be a spook in business, that's what I hear. But for personal reasons, made the decision after eight years in service of the country to move into business. I worked for PepsiCo for a number of years and I came here ten years ago and I've been in this position for two years. Do you still like this job? I love this job. I love the company. And it really is, as I mentioned, an American... Wait, wait, stop. What was the question he got asked? Do you like the job?

1:18:27 Why? Okay. Do you still like this job is what she says. I've been in this position for two years. Do you still like this job? I love this job. I love the company. I think what, you know, this is Gail. She's at the CIA broadcasting systems. So basically saying, what do you, do you like this assignment? Do you still like You like this assignment? I've been in this position for two years. Do you still like this job? I love this job. I love the company. And it really is, as I mentioned, an American institution. And it's really, to me, one degree of separation.

1:19:03 And it's really to me one degree of separation away from the United States. Now shut up because what he says is funnier than your remarks. And it's really to me one degree of separation away from the United States, the American flag. And so even though I'm not. Yeah. He said working at Anheuser-Busch is just one step away from the American flag. It's a Belgian company. American institution and it's really to me one degree of separation away from the United States, the American flag. And so even though I'm not serving the country anymore, I still feel like I have an opportunity to support the country. And that's exactly what Anheuser-Busch gives us the opportunity to do. Just replace country for company, i.e. the pickle factory.

1:19:54 I've written this guy, he's a heat-seeking missile. No way I'd hire this guy for my beer company. This is weird. You're feeling you'll get through this. Well, yeah, you'll get through this, sure. Let's ask ourselves, why did they hire him? Well, first he went to PepsiCo. Were they, I'm sorry, were they told to hire him or is it they have a gun to their head? Did he come in before the sale or after the sale? Came in after the sale. Okay. To keep an eye on those Belgians, probably. But why would the Belgians hire him? They know he's a spook. Well, you know, I don't know. Maybe it just felt right. I think something else is, I think there's a piece of information that we're missing. Do you have any TikTok clips? It continues. They're still playing this game with this, with Bud Light and the whole thing, even though the sales have gone down, they lost billions of dollars.

Social Media Censorship and Michigan Hate Speech Bill

A group of 250 celebrities signed an open letter urging social media platforms to crack down on "anti-trans hate" and disinformation. Simultaneously, Michigan lawmakers proposed HB 4474, which would criminalize speech that causes "severe mental anguish" or makes an individual feel "terrorized." The hosts argue these efforts are designed to implement broad hate speech laws that silence dissent regarding gender ideology.

1:21:02 in sales and market cap. So there's something, you know, they're putting up with. Something's got to happen that's going to make up for these losses. You know, the MTA, the Manhattan Transit Authority has signs up in the subways. And this is kind of where I'm getting this thought from. It's all about hate speech laws, which is ridiculous. Service information. It's a poster on the wall. and it has the pride rainbow colors. No bigotry, hatred or prejudice allowed at this station at any time. Reminder, respect trans people or your pronouns will be was were. I saw this. I'm questioning whether this image is a hoax. It looks pretty real to me. It looks real but does we have anybody in the field that can take a picture of the real sign? We'll get one.

1:22:00 But regardless, it's a meme, man. It's the memes. It's a meme. I'm thinking it's a created meme. It's the memes. We got to be careful. These memes, they're getting into my brain. It's incredible. What's happening is just incredible. I question that sign. It looks really pretty real to me. For one thing, I question that sign existing for more than 10 minutes with some graffiti not being splashed on it. Well, it goes along with 250 celebrities, celebrities and allies who call on Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, TikTok and Twitter to stop the flow of anti-trans hate and malicious disinformation about trans and health care. Open letters sent to Mark Zuckerberg, Meta Platforms, Neil Mohan, YouTube, Zhu Zichu, TikTok, and Linda Iaccarino and Elon Musk at Twitter.

1:22:58 And you know you're in for a good ride when it starts off as, As celebrities, influencers and prominent public figures with significant followings on social media, we the undersigned are calling on Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, TikTok and Twitter to fulfill the promises you've made to transgender, non-binary, gender non-conforming and all LGBTQ users in your terms of service. There has been a massive systemic failure to prohibit hate, harassment and malicious anti-LGBTQ disinformation on your platforms and it must be addressed. Dangerous posts.

1:23:37 Both content and ads created and memes created and circulated by high follower anti-LGBTQ hate accounts targeting transgender, non-binary and gender non-conforming people are thriving across your platforms directly resulting in terrifying real-life harm including bomb threats targeting children's hospitals, that offer health care for trans youth and death threats targeting care providers. Such false and hate-driven widely circulated content on your platform is even being cited by lawmakers advancing discriminatory legislation against trans people. This is crazy. It's really off the rails. And I don't know what's going to happen. Deadnaming. This is dangerous. Deadnaming is violence.

1:24:29 They're dead naming. I forget about that. And every paragraph is hate speech. They want hate speech laws. They want to silence speech. And this has already happened in the UK. It's happening everywhere now. And outside of the US. Michigan. Michigan's out of control. Proposed legislation, HB4474 would amend the state's Ethnic Intimidation Act of 1988, which I didn't even know existed. In order to consider it a hate crime, whatever that is, if a person is accused of causing severe mental anguish to another individual by means of perceived verbal intimidation or harassment,

1:25:12 The amendment defines the words intimidate or harass as a quote willful course of conduct involving repeated or continuing harassment of another individual that would cause a reasonable individual to feel terrorized, frightened, intimidated, threatened, harassed, or molested. This start, John, we saw this happen right before our very eyes. It started with bullying in schools. We were talking about this in 2009. And then we got the hate speech rules in school, and then it became legislation.

Neopronouns and AI Speech Enhancement Testing

The hosts examine a TikTok video featuring a "non-binary" doctor and another user listing "neopronouns" such as "butterfly," "sunshine," and "teddy bear." They use Adobe's AI speech enhancement tool to process the low-quality audio, testing its effectiveness on both the TikTok clips and a slurred Joe Biden recording. The experiment reveals that while the AI improves clarity, it can also introduce unnatural vocal artifacts.

neopronouns· tiktok· adobe· ai· joe biden

1:25:52 This seems to be it could be an attack on free speech. It's a good me. We've been watching this go unsuccessful I should mention Yeah, but Wow and a lot of them bring you know they promise they did they have I don't know there's some issues Which brings me to a couple of talk clips? Upgraded upgraded the jingle So one thing I've noticed, I have two clips, and one thing I've noticed is there, this first clip is not, it's another one you're gonna complain about the quality, but.

1:26:33 This is a person who just talks about neo pronouns. That's all she does. Neo? As in expanded more? New? Yeah, additional. And in fact, you've seen a bunch of Charlie Kirk and some of these other guys who always get into trouble because they're kind of outspoken about all this. And they have people, you know, calling them transphobes. And you see the same thing. I could have gotten clips of these where the guy says, Well, what is, Kennedy pulled this off in the Senate again, you know, where he goes, well, what is this? How many sexes are there? How many genders are there? And today's, as we speak, there's no number of genders anymore. There used to be 75 and there was 35. Now it's infinite. So as the genders have gone to infinity,

1:27:24 The pronouns have gone off the rails! And who are we going to be listening to here? Talk litany of neopronouns. Lily tulip pronouns, hot poppy pronouns, sun, sunshine, perform. Today I'm gonna show you how to use Spring Springs pronouns and Buttercup Buttercup's pronouns, Butterfly Butterfly's pronouns, ha ha. Dude, hold on. Is this like jump cutting or something? What is this? These are all pieces of her showing how to use Butterfly Buttercup pronouns, Teddy Teddy Bear. She just names all these nouveau pronouns that are just like, what? So we're supposed to call people by their pronouns or use their pronouns and there's an infinite number? There's no way we can know what they are? There's a thing on Adobe. Adobe actually has a filter

1:28:17 an AI filter, mind you, where you can take crap like this that is absolutely unarable and you can just drag and drop it in there and it will make it audible again. It's really worth looking into. What's it called? It's called... Enhanced speech. Remove noise from voice recordings with speech enhancement. Oh, I could have used this for the Biden clip. You could have used... This clip here is meaningless. So let's go... Well, hold on, because I dragged it in there. Oh, you're gonna drag it? Here it is. I'm gonna run it right now. Let me just... Here we go. Okay, hold on. Let me just... Download it here. Hold on. Let's see how it works out now. Willy tulip pronouns, hop poppy pronouns, sun, sunshine, perform. Today I'm going to show you how to use spring springs pronouns and buttercup buttercups, butterfly butterflies, pronouns, equality, pit pits, pronouns, bloom blooms, pronouns, normal, forever forevers, ponies, dears, pronouns, tarts, pronouns, use warmth, warm throws, roses, pronouns, dub dubs, pronouns, sweets, pronouns, teddy.

1:29:17 Okay, that was in teddy bear pronouns. The clip was not great. I think that they they did an admirable job But now I want you to since we're doing this in real time. This is the way our show is I want you to run that Biden clip into that thing. Okay, hold on. That was that's the Biden It says Iraq instead of Ukraine. Okay, hold on a second Let me upload. Here we go. Dragging a drop. Oh Oh, it doesn't like this for some reason. Oh, what is this? Oh Okay, hold on a second. It got me. This is a it got mad at me clip It got mad at me and I was mad at you. Yeah, cuz I'd already uploaded something I don't know. He's probably gonna you know, you're using our AI too much curry go away. Okay, Iraq Here we go. Just drag it in here. We're enhancing speech. So I actually considered For some reason it's not doing it

1:30:10 It won't do Joe Biden because it's against terms of service to make him illegible. It says it right here. There is no such thing. It says it right here. It says enhancing speech. Just change the name of the clip. Yeah, that's exactly what I did. So yeah, and it's free. You can get this from a dough. And I've used this on really bad interviews and I considered using it for this Biden thing, but I was like, the whole world has already seen this thing. Let's do the second TikTok clip while I'm waiting for that to enhance. Okay, now this clip is is this is actually a general practitioner. This is a doctor this could be your doctor and this is a Doctor who is I can't even remember if it's a woman chase a trans doctor or no. I'm sorry. What am I thinking? It's a non-binary doctor who's just sick of people not using the right pronouns. Yes, it's it could because it's hate speech and

1:31:07 I'm sorry to hear that but as people have been pointing out, I am not a she. I noticed that you deleted your comment where you said that I most definitely am a woman but I'm not. My sex is female, that was determined at my birth when my doctor took one look at my external genitalia and declared me to be female but I am non-binary which means I am not a woman and I am not a man. I am transgender because my gender does not match my sex which was determined at birth. I choose to express myself as masculine so I am trans masculine or trans masc. My pronouns are they, them and my name is Asha. It was formerly Natasha. Please do not refer to me as a woman anymore. Thank you.

1:32:00 Okay, this is a new term. I just recently wanted this clip. Transmasc. With a C at the end? Transmasc? Transmasc. T-R-A-N-S-M-A-S-C. What? Who can keep up? No, but the point is, please do not call me this. And if you do, then you'll get reported and then you get written up. And you know, that's, this is, it's ultimately, if you think it's about protecting kids, it's not. It's just about shutting people up. It's so obvious. Here's the Biden clip now that it's been enhanced. The only reason that Vladimir Putin has been weakened by the Russian event, it's hard to tell, but he's clearly leading the war in Iraq, he's leading the war at home.

1:32:41 and we is coming through with rye around the world. I think it's hot to see Ruffin Union. It's interesting. So it actually changes his voice for some reason. It changes his voice a little bit and it makes him even more muddy. I mean, the clarity of the clip is there, but his kind of slurring around and barely saying the words that very accurately is kind of brought out. It's brought out. I don't think it's good. Anyway, I think it is good. I'll send you the link. It's worth it. For a lot of things it's worth it. Please send me the link. And with that I'd like to thank you for your courage. See you in the morning. To you the man who put the C just now in Transmask. Ladies and gentlemen say hello to my friend on the other end, the one and only Mr. John C. DeVore.

Seltzer Water Health Warning and Aspartame

Dentists are warning that the rising popularity of seltzer water may lead to damaged tooth enamel due to its acidic nature. Recommendations include drinking seltzer through a straw or rinsing with plain water between drinks. Additionally, the World Health Organization's cancer research agency is reportedly set to declare the sweetener aspartame a possible carcinogen.

1:33:32 Now, in the morning, you will see Adam Crosser. In the morning, ships, sea boots on the ground, feet in the air, steps in the water, and all the dames and knights out there. And in the morning, to the trolls there in the troll room. Very troll-y today. Hands up, you ugly trolls. Let's count you. 1, 2, 3. Now, what is a good number for Thursday? I'm almost sure. Thursday, a good number is 1800. 1904. Nice. Nice. Hello, trolls. Good to have you here. Whatever happened on the last show, people liked it. People got like what they liked what we did on the last show people got value from it. Oh, they found it valuable And and the way they express that is by sending us very long donation notes that don't make sure I control You don't want to miss the donation segment because there's some funny stuff in here And there's always new information that comes to light when people send it. Oh, what are we drinking today?

1:34:24 A Bud Light. No, you're lying. You lie. It's a... I turned out I found another can of the Polar Plain Unflavored Seltzer. That's interesting. I just got so here's the donation segment clip. If you're if you left then you're missing this. Are you ready? Here you go. Listen up, Dennis are now warning about the dangers of seltzer. Now that the drink is becoming more popular than ever. Many use the carbonated water as a low sugar replacement for soda, but dentists are warning that seltzer has acids that can harm or even wipe out tooth enamel. So they recommend rinsing your mouth with regular water between seltzers to wash out that acid or just drink with a straw.

1:35:12 Drink it with a straw. Wait a minute. Drink it with a straw. Hold on a second. What acid? Well, I actually asked Maverick. He didn't get back to me. I tried to get him. He's probably in surgery. Because I want to know what this is about. Is this because... This seems to me like a beverage war of some sort. I doubt that this is... Seltzer is sparkling water. There's no difference. Well, you heard it right here. You heard it. I mean, if they're adding something like if you want to talk about something that could go after your tooth enamel, you have to look at at the flavored beverages like Coca-Cola and Pepsi Cola, which have phosphoric acid. You can see it on the label phosphoric acid in the product, which is kind of caustic.

1:35:58 Uh, but seltzer is seltzer. And check this out. Just hot off the press from Reuters today, exclusive WHO's cancer research agency say aspartame sweetener, a possible carcinogen. No, you don't say how long we've been talking about aspartame as long as we've been talking about the thimerosal. Anything. Yeah. Unbelievable. Anyway, enjoy your seltzer there. I will! I can tell you exactly what it feels like when you have to have oral work done. Well...

1:36:37 Thank you trolls for hanging out. They're very trolly today. There's always gummy nerds and Admelkert and these people like, I don't like this. This is boring. The show's no good. And I was like, where's your podcast? Show's no good. Get your own show, asshole. Dickweed, where's your show? BlueDouche33, please. Now you can join the trolls and fight them. That's what people do. They fight back and forth. It is kind of funny and it's almost an unmoderated chat room. You really got to be doing something weird before you get kicked out of there. I didn't even boot anybody. It has to be kind of aimed at Adam. No, when it's aimed at me, everyone loves it.

1:37:22 No, you have to like do a flood of paste flood or something. No, if they're just trolling me, they love it. They think it's funny. Oh, look at him getting all mad. Now the way to do this, if you're going to be a troll, get a new podcast app at podcastapps.com. You can use Fountain. I like Podverse because it gives you an alert, but also Podcast Guru, Podcast Addict, CurioCaster. You can listen live. You get the troll room right there in your app. You can do all kinds of fun things. It's modern and you can import all your legacy podcasts into it. Everything works. Drop Apple, please. Drop, if you're using Google, if you're listening on a web page, get one of these apps. It's the future. I'm 10 years early, but I'm always right.

1:38:11 You can also follow us on the meme station known as noagendasocial.com. People are fighting over there too. There's something going on in the air. The trolls are fighting amongst themselves, they're calling each other names. They're posting bad memes, thousands of them. Something is happening. I can smell, I feel there's something going on in the air. Not sure. About what? I don't know. They're upset and nervous about something. It's nervous energy they have. And then they start doing all these things and they stop thinking straight.

CHAPTER 24 / 44 Discussion

Podcast Value-for-Value and Artwork Selection

The hosts discuss the "Value-for-Value" model, thanking listeners for their time, talent, and treasure. They review the artwork submitted for the current episode, selecting a piece by Sir Paul Couture titled "Wagner the Dog." The discussion touches on marketing research from the software era, noting that black lettering on a yellow background—as seen in the winning art—is statistically the most eye-catching for consumers.

value-for-value· podcasting· digital art· lotus 1-2-3· marketing

1:38:50 Yeah. Follow Adam at noagendasocial.com, John C. Dvorak at noagendasocial.com. And as part of our value for value model, which is very simple, you know, you can, if you're listening to the show, we presume that you keep listening because you get some value out of it. If you don't give any value back, you have to question your life choices if you're not sending something back to us. Now, it can be all kinds of things except memes and trolling comments. If you're doing something productive for the community, then we appreciate it, like our artists. Another thing you can see in the new podcast app is the art that is used, a new one every single show, which is submitted by some fantastic artists who just provide this out of the goodness of their valuable hearts, returning it for the value the show provides. And we really appreciate it, and in particular we want to thank

1:39:45 The artist number one on the generator, Sir Paul Couture, moving up his very own rankings for the artwork for episode 1567, appropriately titled Wagner the Dog. How could we not choose a hot dog carrying a flag that says false on it, Russian made, 180 degrees? I mean, yellow seems to be the color of art these days. For some reason I'm noticing that a lot of yellow is being used. Have you noticed this? Always a winner. Is yellow always a winner? Is that a fact? There was a study done on packaging, software packaging, and they determined that most of the things that jumps off the shelf, this is the days when they had computer stores, what jumps off the shelf is black lettering on a yellow background packaging. So what would an example of that be in the software world? Lotus was, I think, one of those. Oh, right, Lotus 1-2-3 probably.

1:40:41 And the only reason they use those colors is because of the market research they did. Well, Sir Paul Couture nailed it because he had black letters on a yellow background. And it was also, there were other people who did hot dog art, some which we liked, but it didn't, I mean, as you said, this one had motion. You know, the hot dog is marching and the false flag, the literal false flag was just too funny. So, you know, but we, and again, Value returned by the artist for the value we provide and we actually turn around and give them some value by telling them why we didn't choose their art Which is which is something that you will not get in the professional art world ever ever You just won't get shows won't choose your art, but they'll never tell you why I tell you they'll never tell you why sucks Besides it just sucks man. So we had let me see what we had I kind of liked Francisco Scaramanga's

1:41:37 U-turn Wagner U-turn sign with a yeah, I like that too. I also like the hot dog done by Sir net Ned Let me see which one that was cute And he had the Ukraine flag which was very very close to it mean they're so similar those hot dog you think that was some kind of Some kind of clip art they've both licensed and mangled to their own. I have no idea. Hmm. I also very much like Tantaniel's Ding Dongs now with Ling Ling. Yeah, I liked it as a piece, as a standalone piece, but it was a little, you know, Ding Dong is not so much, you know, it's just a throwaway. It's just that it was, it wasn't as connective.

1:42:20 Connected to the show as I'd like even though I'm the one who said Ling Ling and Ding Dong which was hilarious Yeah, well that was I thought that was their names, but yeah capitalist agenda also had the communist wieners which is the hammer and sickle and With a yeah, it was cute. Yeah, it was more than kind of cute Dame Kenny been had a Wagner the do a lot Okay, let's start up and say there was a lot of nice pieces any which any one of which could have been used It just so happens that couture's piece was was It was dynamite now you use the nest work sleep. Well at night the moon with the yeah

1:43:01 Yeah, I just thought that was a pleasant piece of art. Yeah, and I want to give an honorable mention, you hated it. It disgusted you. I really liked Dirty Jersey Whores, woke kid, you know, leaning against the television screen that had the rainbow on it. I really thought that was cute. I wasn't disgusted by it. The one thing that looks like a test pattern of any sort that I've seen a million times, I thought the art was somewhat simplistic. I liked the dyed hair. It's kind of cute. Yeah. But I didn't think it was artsy enough. Well, it deserved to lose against Sir Paul Couture, but still, it was, I thought it was, it wasn't bad at all. Yeah, I didn't like it at all.

1:43:46 Thank you very much to all the artists who participate in this. We really appreciate it. It really, when we're done with the show, and let's face it, after three, three and a half hours of show, we're done with each other. We still have something fun to do. You know, we can still, we can pick art and really, you know, it's like, I'll go into the bathroom. I really got to pee. John's already done that, of course, during the meetup segment. He has the bathroom nearby. I got to walk a little bit further. And then we're all reset, you know, we're like, hey, let's argue about some art. And it's good, we appreciate it. It's very valuable to us and valuable to the show. It looks great in the podcast apps. And we believe it contributes to people listening. Now, of course, we also- As art does. As art does. It's very important that you deliver your time, talent, and treasure. And you don't have to do it every single show. Some people do it once a year, some do it on a weekly basis, some do it in little bits and pieces. It's all okay.

So this is a big donation. Wow, nice. I've been putting off donating until I can come up with a witty dad joke that would make my four human resources chuckle. But as they all know, their dad is no comedian. Oh well. I'd like to be dubbed Sir Kukaracha of the Northwoods at the round table. So in other words, we got no dad joke out of him. No, zero dad joke.

Although I prefer the hot dog at Costco. The hot dog at Costco's is probably one of the most cost-effective winner outside the chicken. It's like a $1.25 and you get the hot dog and a drink. It's a buck 65 here. What do you mean a buck 25? You're in California, man. There's no way it's a buck 25 there. I thought it was a buck 25 last time I was there. I may be wrong. You are.

Crypto Granny and Zanzibar Anecdote

Dame Catherine, known as the "Crypto Granny of Bangkok," donates $1,000 in Bitcoin and shares a story from her time living in Zanzibar. She recounts a conversation with a local farmer who defined being rich as "having enough to share with others." Catherine credits Max Keiser for her early interest in Bitcoin and requests a custom "shut up slave" jingle for her son.

1:49:23 Dame Catherine is in Bangkok and she comes in with $1,006.96. Yes, she's been a supporter forever. But she tells us a little story here in this note that I find distressing. I don't think she's been a supporter at all. Yes, she has. This is the woman in Bangkok that lets out her apartment and we've mentioned her for years. I don't think she's ever sent any donations. I think she has, but I know we've been in contact with her forever. She says, I saw Adam on the Max Keiser show in 2016 walking down a very noisy Austin street. Max got me interested in Bitcoin and crypto in 2015 and I've done very well for myself so I'm donating this $1,000 in Bitcoin as a switcheroo for my son JD Sutton in Durango. Now JD Sutton sounds familiar, definitely.

1:50:22 And it was a Bitcoin donation. Let me just put JD Sutton here now to make sure that we do that right. Please knight him, Sir JD of the Shimmering Deep Sea. I first listened to the NOAA Gender Show and heard the little girl scream, shut up slave! I thought, OMG, these guys are pedos into S&M. Are you sure this is who you think it is? Yet I continued listening and laughing to this day I now live in Bangkok and learn more about what's going on in America from you too than anyone else I also love the boots on the ground reports. Yes, I listen to the donation segments as well. Yes, you should Could you please create a Bitcoin jingle like the one you did for Joe Rogan donations? Thank you in advance. Oh, I Didn't do a Bitcoin jingle But I have one for you. Don't worry about that

1:51:12 I've been an expat living abroad since 2004. The Patriot Act was my red line! I lived 10 years in Zanzibar, an island off East Africa. I'm familiar. I had a gorgeous rooftop penthouse and one day my farmer friend Suleiman and I went and bought some flowers on the way home. Suleiman said, we Zanzibaris don't grow flowers because we're poor. We only grow food. Then he said, when I'm rich I'm going to grow flowers. I asked, what is the definition of being rich? Without hesitation he replied, being rich is having enough to share with others. I've been a hodler for years. I know there are more of you out there. Now is the time to rise up and support the best podcast in the universe with Bitcoin. Share the wealth. Dame Catherine, crypto granny of Bangkok. Please take me out with a little girl. She wants the Bitcoin jingle. A little girl. Yay. And a shut up slave. I think we can do that for you.

Dylan Mulvaney Criticism and Baronial Title Change

A producer known as Circumvent is elevated to the rank of Baron of the Northern Territory. The accompanying note criticizes Dylan Mulvaney, comparing the influencer's persona to a "shitty actor" rather than a legitimate transgender individual. The segment also references an ISO of Ted Cruz thanking a producer for their courage during a hearing with swimmer Riley Gaines.

dylan mulvaney· barry humphreys· ted cruz· riley gaines· northern territory

1:52:07 They're saying that all hell is gonna break loose and you're gonna need a Bitcoin. Shut up, slave! There you go. JD Sutton on deck. You got it. Thank you, Crypto Granny. Another long note from circumvent. Uh, 34567. Hey, Adam. Yes? Just a quick note. It was Dame G Money's birthday on Monday, 26 June, and I sent a donation in for that, but it somehow got missed. Yeah, I sent it to the wrong PayPal. He sent it to the John C. Duvoir company PayPal. He sent it to the old one, the old one. So, but still I'll take the blame. It's my fault. I'm sorry. He says it's your fault. It's my fault. Did you give her a late birthday shout out? Yeah. Yeah, of course. Of course. Also, why do people call Dylan Mulvaney TG? He is not TG. He is a woman's parody like Dame Edna Everidge, who's now deceased. Deceased, yeah, Barry Humphreys.

1:53:06 No one would have called Barry Humphreys TG. Dylan Milvaney is a shitty actor playing a role as a woman because he couldn't get work as a man. He never even bothered taking on a female name. Just my two cents worth. I have attached an ISO of Ted Cruz thanking you for your courage, which could be an end of show ISO for you. This is from a hearing with Riley Gaines, a swimmer who tied tied with Lisa, Leah Thompson. Oh, and this will make me a baron. Not sure whether there's a size restriction on protectorates, but I would like to be the baron of the Northern Territory. If you haven't seen the promotional stuff, here's a link. They are somewhat irrelevant.

1:53:50 Reverent. Anyway, thank you for your courage. Great show as always. If I can get a goat karma and you are going to love President Trump. We don't have a you're gonna love President Trump. I never heard that either. I've never heard it but I'll do this for you. I'll do anyone's goat karma so. They did dumps. They call them dumps. Big massive dumps. That should be good enough. You've got karma. We go to Alan Green in Ogden, Utah 333.33 and you know The Biden no no no no that was your clip. That's not a jingle. I didn't ISO that right Did you make an ISO of that? No, you'd have to look it up. Yeah still in the pile Yeah, but what was it called because you know I did make it I end a show mix Yeah, but what would the ISO be called? No, no, no. No, I wish should be a ISO. No

Shortly after going live, we received panic calls about our widget. It suggested children's underwear for an article about child abuse in PlayStation. Thank you, AI. And shortly after that, it suggested fire-starting supplies for an article about a house that burned. That's IBM. AI at work.

1:57:17 As a result, the widget was quickly removed from the hard news section. IBM Watson then became an excessively expensive keyword matcher for sports articles and sports paraphernalia. However, when we told investors that we were leveraging IBM's AI Watson, it really wooed them. Ha, love is lit. Thank you for the best podcast in the universe. Can I get an AI Sharpton mix?

Ham Radio Field Day and Loneliest Road in America

Adam Curry recounts receiving a message via the 7290 traffic net during Ham Radio Field Day, demonstrating the effectiveness of amateur radio networks. Sir Devon shares his experience driving across Nevada on Highway 50, often called the "loneliest road in America," while visiting Great Basin National Park. The hosts encourage listeners to explore ham radio for emergency communications and community connection.

You screwed it up I did yes image makers Inc. Oh Go to image makers Inc. Not calm with a K with a K Inc. Oh

2:09:04 Or just find Linda Lupatkin under the show's executive producer list and run a search. Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs. Let's vote for jobs! She's on a roll like our buddy in North Carolina, everybody who's always donating the boobs donation. McLaughlin. McLaughlin, yeah. Finally, final associate executive producer, Sir Devon from Elko, Nevada. Nevada, Nevada, $200 in the morning you two. I'm offering a belated birthday donation for myself. I turned 23 on June 4th but wanted to wait to have this letter read while I drive across the breadth of Nevada along Highway 50, the loneliest road in America, concluding with a visit to Great Basin National Park. I've left an optional note for you two below regarding mineral exploration in Nevada that hopefully you find interesting. Oh yeah. I read that. Did you read it? Yeah, it's very interesting.

2:10:01 If I could get a biscuit on my birthday, yeah of course you can. They always give me a biscuit on my birthday. And my favorite ISO is Alex Jones Twilight Zone. Do we have that? Do we have the Twilight Zone? Twilight... Yes, I do have that. Probably. I do have that for you. And I'd like some karma and I sure appreciate all of that. Thanks for what you do, you two do. Sir Dirty Jer... Oh no. That's the next one. Sir Devin, yes, thank you. I'm living in a twilight zone! There you go, and a little bit of karma for you, thank you so much. You've got karma. By the way, I think Highway 40 is lonelier than 50. 50 goes through all these nice little towns. Well, when's the last time you did it? When I was a little kid. Yeah, there you go.

2:10:51 It all depends on what you were like at the time. I wanted to thank, before we move on, you know, field day was this past weekend. That's when all the hams go out and make sure that they can make some contacts, work some other stations on battery power. You know, it's really for MCOMs, emergency, so that we all keep in practice. And my phone rang, and I love this. My phone rang from an Austin number, a 512 number. And I'm like, oh, this was this and I picked it up and said, yes, hello. I have a message from the 7290 traffic net for Adam Curry, kilo 5, alpha Charlie Charlie. This thing, it actually works. So, you know, you can do this. You can send a message through your ham radio and say, I want you to contact someone and

2:11:40 And they went through the trouble of finding a phone number for me. They found a phone number and passed on the message from Juliet Kilo Tango 2-0 in the morning on field day from central New York, 7290s traffic. And they got to your phone? Yeah. Yeah, the hams are very resourceful. I like the hams. I love the hams. 73's to all you hams. And thank you all very much to our executive and associate executive producers who supported us once again with those forever credits for this episode. 1568, we appreciate it a lot. And anybody can do that. You just have to go to our website. Our formula is this. We go out, we hit people in the mouth.

CHAPTER 32 / 44 Discussion

European Union Digital Euro Proposal

The European Commission published a proposal to introduce a digital euro as legal tender within the 20-member eurozone. Officials claim the digital currency will work like cash and provide independence from U.S.-based payment systems like Visa and Mastercard. However, critics and the hosts argue the system is designed for total financial surveillance and control, noting a proposed 3,000-euro limit on individual "smart wallets."

2:12:29 VORAC! SLAVES! Shut up! Slaves! Yeah, here's their website. vorac.org slash n-a. There we go. Nice, nice, nice. I'm gonna try to get Jay to become a ham. Yeah, but she'd be good ham. She'd be a great ham. She'd be hamalicious. Hamalama ding dong. I gotta play something here which corroborates completely with something we busted wide open when I was doing the show from Jamaica. This is the show when weeks before anyone else did it. We pulled apart the fake interview, a fake Zoom call, well it was a real Zoom call but it was a fake Zelensky with Fifi Lagarde, you remember Christine Lagarde? Oh yeah, she's all jacked up about, oh President Zelensky, I'm so happy you're Zooming in. It was two jokers from Russia who we love. Those guys. Those guys are the best.

2:13:24 And she was talking about, yeah, in October we're going to have the central bank digital currency. We'll get it all set up. You know, we know exactly how we're going to do it. We've got the levels all set and we're going to go, we're going to rock. It's going to happen. Well, wouldn't you know? Yesterday, this announcement came out in the EU. Deutsche Welle reports. The European Commission published a proposal on Wednesday that would introduce digital legal tender for use within the 20-member euro zone. The digital euro is meant to be used alongside the existing euro as an additional form of online payment and cannot be converted into cash.

2:14:03 Unlike cryptocurrencies, it will have the backing of the European Central Bank. The Commissioner for Financial Stability, Maread McGuinness, cited several reasons for the move to a digital tender. One is that the declining use of cash. But there is also a concern that other nations will dominate the digital economy if the EU doesn't take action. So far, Nigeria, Jamaica and several other Caribbean nations have fully launched centrally backed digital currencies. Another 53 countries are in the advanced stages of a rollout, including China, India, Japan and Brazil.

2:14:42 Let's get more of this from DW correspondent Ben Rieger. Did you want to say something, John? Yeah. What? Wasn't it like two or three years ago that India went all digital and it was a big deal? I don't think... You've got to remember that. I remember they took away a whole bunch of money. They made new money. I remember they took away bank notes. I don't think they went all digital. They can't go all digital. The country is filled with poor people. No, I realize it's impossible, but I thought that they made an effort to. Already, like years ago. Who cares? This is the EU. I'm going there on vacation. This is gonna be fun. This from DW correspondent Bernd Riegert in Brussels. Bernd, good to see you. Tell us more about why EU regulators feel this digital euro is actually necessary. This is gonna happen.

2:15:37 The EU Commission says it wants to be part of the game. It feels that it is necessary to have all... The game! It's the game! Part of the game! The game, man! What game? The game! The digital game! The game to scam people to print up money digitally and then get, you know, oh your next stimulus check will come through your CBDC. Listen, this is what they want to do everywhere. This is the central bank mantra. Good luck. This is happening. This is happening in Europe. Commission says it wants to be part of the game. It feels that it is necessary to have also a digital branch of the euro, which is the second biggest currency in the world. And they want to fulfill the wishes of consumers. There was a survey and consumers say, yes, we want that. We want it. And it also grants some kind of independence.

2:16:27 from payment systems like Mastercard or Visa which are all seated in the United States. All right, you're paying with Euro, I'm paying with Euros. What are the practical benefits for consumers like you and me and other people within the Eurozone of this digital Europe? Well, paying with the Euro, the digital Euro shall be possible without paying any fees. It would work like cash in your pocket so you don't need the middlemen, the payment systems anymore. It would be safe because the value is guaranteed by the European Central Bank.

2:17:04 directly and payments from one smart wallet to another smart wallet are possible without any online connection so you don't need all the technical stuff anymore. So Ben, critics say this digital euro can be more easily tracked, can be used for surveillance. What do advocates of this digital euro say about that? Well, they say the opposite is true because the digital euro works like cash. You don't have so much data involved as if you pay with MasterCard or Visa because there's no name involved. There is no account involved. So you are not leaving much traces and that's why the amount of digital euros you can have in your smart wallet is limited actually to 3,000 euros to avoid

2:17:57 Yeah, there's something some abuse and also money laundering. Exactly what Lagarde said limit to 3,000 euros everything she said about the tracking I like the It's the digital euro, but you don't need any technical stuff. I like that part a lot. Yeah, that's gonna work What's gonna work is that there's gonna be so much counterfeit money Because now you don't really have to print the money the counterfeit money goes on the card directly. That's the point the central bank You're right. You should go to Europe get you know fights one of our guys we got plenty of them and that is in the middle there, some grey marketeer, and you know, spend some money in France. Now you're missing my point. The fraudulent money will be printed by the central bank. This is the only way out. They can do it, anyone can do it. I think you can also get your own fraudulent money. This is not going to work.

2:18:52 This is going to work exactly the way they intend. What I love the most about this topic is your constant saying it's not going to work. They are going to do this. It's going to be beautiful. They're going to create so much phony baloney money on this central bank backed currency. It's going to be great. It's gonna be so fun to watch. If you like economic collapse, yeah, you're probably right. What do you think? If you think that's great. What do you think they're trying to do? This is the whole point. They want economic collapse. They want total control of their citizens. Oh man, where you been during COVID? This is what they want. They want obedient, obedient citizens. Take your money on this card and shut up. Show me your QR code to get into the bar. Promise you.

CHAPTER 33 / 44 Discussion

Media Narrative on Putin's "Weakness"

CBS News and other outlets are reporting that senior Russian generals may have had advanced knowledge of Yevgeny Prigozhin's mutiny. The hosts analyze this as a coordinated information warfare campaign intended to make Putin appear weak and encourage internal dissent. They criticize the use of emotional propaganda, such as reports of 14-year-old twins killed in a missile strike, to bolster the narrative.

vladimir putin· wagner group· yevgeny prigozhin· cbs news· information warfare

2:19:46 Now, I hope it doesn't happen here, but man, they want it. They want it. They can want anything they want. Good luck. Good luck. Well, we'll see you in October, won't we? We'll see you in October. Well, I'm not saying they won't roll something out. It doesn't mean it's going to go anywhere. Okay. Go back to Putin. All right. I got lots of... And the reason I want to go back to Putin, because CBS ran a hit piece. And CBS, of course, we know is a front for the... Well, let's... Before you get into the eclipse, I would say the entire point to the operation that took place, just to review from the last episode, one is to set up the terrorist attack on the nuclear plant so we can invoke Article 5 of NATO. That's what Blumenthal and Graham literally announced.

2:20:41 To do what the CIA has always been good at is to make a leader look weak internally and then try and start a coup, get everybody all jacked up. They usually do it with NGOs. Putin kicked them out. So now we have the CIA broadcasting systems who I'm sure are going to compound the messaging about Putin being weak. Yeah, I figured that this was the reason I wanted these clips because they have to be this is a messaging operation. Yeah, and information warfare. This is the show from yesterday and there was absolutely nothing on the show except this. War in Ukraine and new fallout from that failed armed rebellion led by the leader of Russia's private army. There are questions tonight about whether the oligarch who leads the Wagner mercenary group had support for his revolt from inside the Russian military. CBS's Ian Lee reports from Kiev. The images shocked the world. Wagner troops advancing toward Moscow before turning around.

2:21:42 But questions remain surrounding the mercenary boss Yevgeny Purgoshin's failed mutiny. CBS News has learned the U.S. has intelligence that a senior Russian general had advanced knowledge of the mutiny. The Kremlin says these allegations are speculation and gossip. But in Kiev today, Ukraine's National Security Chief Olexiy Danilov claimed Prygozhin was in league with not one, but 14 senior Russian military officers. Prygozhin is not an independent person, he tells me. He is owned by high-ranking people in President Putin's inner circle. So Prygozhin does have support in the highest ranks of the Russian military?

2:22:21 They are his owners, he says. This is a group of people who have a goal to change the leadership of Russia. Many analysts say President Putin has been weakened by this revolt. Wow, this is good! I didn't even see this one coming. So we know that obviously the Wagner Group, which has been the sole focus of attention of anything in the field on Russia, not Russian troops, not Russian war machines, no, it's all been Wagner Group, private military company Wagner Group, and they're obviously on the CIA payroll. But now they add a little twist to it by saying, oh no no, no, it's people inside Russia who have this guy in his pocket. He's not Putin's chef anymore. It's the people around Putin they want to bring him down. Can you believe this? I can believe they said it. I can't believe we didn't predict this one. That's what I can't believe.

2:23:19 It's actually is predictable not looking back. Yes, but to come up with this cock and bull story great And then they have it come out of the secure the head of the CIA of Ukraine whoever that guy is never heard of him great He comes up with this bullshit. It's like oh my god. This is it is great. I agree It's great, and it's amazing that you're right. We should have come up with this ourselves, but here we go at part two of the same basic clip. Even if he executes the generals who had some sort of part in the mutiny, this will not affect the outcome, he tells me. The wheels are in motion for Putin's demise. The crisis at the top in Russia has so far not trickled down to the battlefield, where yesterday two Russian missiles destroyed a pizza restaurant during the evening rush. At least 11 people were killed in the attack, including 14-year-old twins.

2:24:11 while dozens more were injured. Tonight in Nora, President Zelensky announced the detention of a person he says coordinated the attack, adding anybody who helps the Russians destroy life deserves the maximum punishment. I really like the twins edition, including 14-year-old twins. Yeah, and they show them. They have a little picture of the two of them. They're cuties. Oh, yeah. And you get it makes, oh, that's cool. Incubators. Throw the incubators on the floor. So that's all built in. Throw the babies on the floor. Yeah, yeah, you should exactly well, so you built it you built the eye and we see the two girls and Yeah, the propaganda piece is very good. Well, the message is out the message is out everywhere I have I have some other examples of the exact same message maybe not with the Putin's guys on the inside were funding it

CHAPTER 34 / 44 Discussion

ABC and NBC Coverage of the Wagner Mutiny

Mainstream networks are using terms like "mutiny" and "civil war" to describe the Wagner Group's brief march toward Moscow. ABC News analyst Steve Ganyard characterized the event as a "brilliant" move by Prigozhin to pressure Putin, despite Prigozhin being exiled to Belarus. The hosts mock the conflicting media reports, noting that the narrative shifts rapidly between calling the event a failed coup and a successful negotiation.

mutiny· civil war· belarus· abc news· nbc news

2:25:01 But here's NBC now overseas to Russia where today President Putin speaking on following that failed mutiny Kier Simmons is with me from Moscow failed mutiny. I like mutiny now. This is good Is he on a ship here President Putin is now saying Russia averted a civil war? That's right Lester and tonight the Kremlin's message to this country President Putin is in control Russia's leader praising security officials and his National Guard for saving the motherland from catastrophe. Rebellion leader Wagner Group commander Yevgeny Bogoshin is now in Belarus according to reports there. Bogoshin's forces took over a Russian military headquarters and were marching towards Moscow when the deal was apparently cut. Putin today criticizing Bogoshin saying in a year he paid his former ally $2 billion. Russia announcing it won't prosecute the mutineers.

2:25:56 is. Okay, so really just sowing confusion there NBC. Mutineer and a mutineer which is okay and then Civil War we got all these crazy things going on. Why do you think they threw in mutiny? What is the point of that? I think it's because the public understands what it means. Oh yeah. All right. You're part of the system and you mutiny because and mutiny also because of the movies like Mutiny on the Bounty and all these things. It indicates you have a guy that's running the ship that's out of control and he has got to go. Kane mutiny, mutiny on the bounty, these are where the captain is nuts. I think you're right. Good point. So it's associative. Let's listen to Good Morning America. President Zelensky, it sounded the alarm about Russia taking steps to potentially sabotage a nuclear facility in Ukraine. Yeah! Could Russia do that?

2:26:48 Could Russia do that? They could, Michael. They have the means. They may not have the motive yet. So they certainly have the engineering capability. They've held this power plant for a long time. What they may be doing is wiring the plant to create a nuclear incident. Oh, they're wiring the plant. Oh, yes. Oh, they're wiring it up. Yeah, just like the World Trade Center. And it would be something that Putin would keep in his pocket if there was some sort of catastrophic Ukrainian breakthrough in the front lines. Oh, if there's a breakthrough on the front lines, then I push the button! Perhaps he could blow up this power plant. But interestingly, if you look at the prevailing winds, if the Russians did that, most of the year they blow either towards the east or towards the south. So that fallout would theoretically come right back onto Russian troops and potentially Crimea.

2:27:33 Oh, this is an interesting little bit here. We need to have the wind. We need to change the wind direction because if it doesn't waft over Poland, kind of flying, if it doesn't waft over Poland, then we can't invoke Article five. It needs we have to have the wind in the right direction. Let's continue with Steve Ganyard. Yeah. And Secretary of State Blinken said on this week that that real cracks are emerging in Russia's leadership. Is Putin's power? It certainly is for the first time in 24 years. But remember that sometimes cracks and foundations of buildings... What is this? For the first time in 24 years?

2:28:14 It certainly is for the first time in 24 years. But remember that sometimes cracks in foundations of buildings, they can cause catastrophic immediate effect or they can go on for years or maybe never. So we need to see how this plays out. And I think that every hour that we don't see Putin will be adding to that intrigue. But I think it's important, Michael, here to think about what this was and what it wasn't. It was not a coup attempt. It was not an insurrection. There was no popular support. This was a mercenary army mutinying. and Pugosian felt the walls closing in around him he catched a plan to save himself and his men

2:29:00 It was brilliant. He walked into the headquarters of military. It was brilliant. Hold on a second. The history of this operation is really they're a bunch of, I don't know, they're mercenaries that go to Africa to steal gold. That's their main thing. Gold, gold. Why don't they just pack up and go back to Africa where they've been doing business forever? No. As opposed to this bull crap. Well, maybe because it's all bull crap? Closing in around him, he catched a plan to save himself and his men.

2:29:37 It was brilliant. He walked into this headquarters, this military headquarters in the south, essentially put his feet up on the desk, says, I control this place, sent an armored column up to the north to pressure Putin, called Putin with the phones, recording the whole thing, controlling social media. But they're just making this up as they go along? Totally. He put his feet up on the desk and called Putin on the secure line from that office? And recorded it. And recorded it. and record it. Listen. He sent an armored column up to the north to pressure Putin, called Putin with the phones, recording the whole thing, controlling social media so Putin can control the narrative, and he said let's negotiate. And Putin was unable to call his bluff and he totally collapsed. It was totally humiliating for Putin and Pugosian pulled it all off brilliantly. I mean, I didn't clip it because it was just... Hold on a second, wait.

2:30:34 How is he pulling this off beautifully when he's exiled to Belarus of all places? Because he put pressure... How is that pulling off anything? You're lucky to be alive. He can be assassinated at any point now. He put pressure on Putin. Pressure on Putin. To what? You're asking me about this phony op? You're asking me to explain it to you? Yeah. This is a media war. This is all bull. Bull. I mean half the media was saying, oh look everybody was happy to see Purgosian. The other half is saying they were like kicking him out. This whole thing is crazy. It's very poorly orchestrated, whoever's behind it. France 24 had that. Yeah, I know what I'm saying, but there's obviously a head of the operation that's... He did fine with CBS, that's a great report. But these other things from ABC, they got... They're freewheeling. They're freewheeling. They're freewheeling. They don't have... They had a meeting.

2:31:33 Uh, what do we call this? Mutiny. Okay, okay, boss. It's good. They're gonna mutiny. Just to get the one talking point, go from there, boys. You can make it up as good as anyone. Here's France 24. The revolt may have been short-lived, but it's chipped away at Vladmir Putin's stone-faced facade. The Wagner group's failed uprising was slammed as treason by the Kremlin, but it was the biggest threat to his authority that Putin has faced in his two decades in power. For those watching from abroad, it was a remarkable slip for Russia's strongman. 16 months ago, Russian forces were on the doorstep of Kiev in Ukraine. This is Blinken. Believing they would take the capital in a matter of days and erase the country from the map as an independent country. Now, what we've seen is... Woah! Woah!

CHAPTER 35 / 44 Discussion

Antony Blinken and Emmanuel Macron on Russian Fragility

Secretary of State Antony Blinken and French President Emmanuel Macron stated that the Wagner revolt exposed deep divisions and fragility within the Russian military. Blinken claimed Russia was forced to defend its own capital against its own mercenaries. The hosts point out Blinken's audible chuckle during his remarks, suggesting he is aware that the "erasing Ukraine from the map" narrative is hyperbolic.

2:30:34 How is he pulling this off beautifully when he's exiled to Belarus of all places? Because he put pressure... How is that pulling off anything? You're lucky to be alive. He can be assassinated at any point now. He put pressure on Putin. Pressure on Putin. To what? You're asking me about this phony op? You're asking me to explain it to you? Yeah. This is a media war. This is all bull. Bull. I mean half the media was saying, oh look everybody was happy to see Purgosian. The other half is saying they were like kicking him out. This whole thing is crazy. It's very poorly orchestrated, whoever's behind it. France 24 had that. Yeah, I know what I'm saying, but there's obviously a head of the operation that's...

2:31:33 Uh, what do we call this? Mutiny. Okay, okay, boss. It's good. They're gonna mutiny. Just to get the one talking point, go from there, boys. You can make it up as good as anyone. Here's France 24. The revolt may have been short-lived, but it's chipped away at Vladmir Putin's stone-faced facade. The Wagner group's failed uprising was slammed as treason by the Kremlin, but it was the biggest threat to his authority that Putin has faced in his two decades in power. For those watching from abroad, it was a remarkable slip for Russia's strongman. 16 months ago, Russian forces were on the doorstep of Kiev in Ukraine. This is Blinken. Believing they would take the capital in a matter of days and erase the country from the map as an independent country. Now, what we've seen is... Woah! Woah!

2:32:24 Whoa, whoa, laugh tell, laugh tell, laugh tell. Believing they would take the capital in a matter of days and erase the country from the map as an independent country. Now what we've seen is... What's up with that? Yeah, laugh tell right in there. Because he knows what he's saying, oh, they would erase the country from the map. It's simply not true. The reason he pulled out is because they had a peace deal. They had a peace deal, which Boris Johnson then went into, oh no son, no Minsk agreement for you. We need war here. So he knows it's not true and he's laughing about it. Believing they would take the capital in a matter of days and erase the country from the map as an independent country. Now what we've seen is Russia having to defend Moscow, its capital, against mercenaries of its own making.

2:33:15 Ukraine's allies have been monitoring the situation closely. French President Emmanuel Macron said the Wagner Group march on Moscow shows the divisions that exist within the Russian camp. There's so much alliteration, march on Moscow, pressure on Putin, I love it. And the fragility of both its military and its auxiliary forces. Ukrainian President Zelensky has discussed the turmoil across the border with Poland, Canada and US President Joe Biden. But for now, he's holding his cards close to his chest. The longer Russian aggression lasts, the more degradation it causes in Russia itself. This manifests itself as aggression, which is gradually turning inwards

2:33:57 and coming home to roost. In my conversations with my fellow leaders, we exchanged our assessment of what is happening in Russia. We see the situation the same way and know how to respond. You know, there's something to be said for this tactic. With the media being so widespread the way it is today, If you just keep saying it, Putin's weak, Putin weak, pressure, mutiny. I mean, people inside Russia will start to waver. I don't know that they get the word. The people inside Russia have been cut off. But they got YouTube and TikTok. They're posting on YouTube. Yes, of course. YouTube is open for Russia. Believe me.

2:34:42 It would have been over for Putin if the NGOs were still around. I agree. And the media was a little looser. They probably would have gotten him out by now, but he's done a really amazing job of staying in power. And I don't know if they're going to, this is going to work. I mean, I know that they'd love to get rid of him. I'm not sure what they want in place of him. What I'm worried about is that they, you know, they being us, trip off some charges at the nuclear power plant, which they do have to wait for the winds of change.

CHAPTER 36 / 44 Discussion

Ukraine Recovery Conference and War Risk Insurance

At the Ukraine Recovery Conference in London, international partners pledged an additional $60 billion for reconstruction. A new "War Risk Insurance Framework" was launched to protect private business investments in Ukraine using taxpayer-backed guarantees. Meanwhile, the U.S. imposed sanctions on gold mining activities in Africa linked to the Wagner Group, which the hosts interpret as a move to seize African resources.

2:35:19 Make sure the wind's going the right way, otherwise it doesn't count. Yeah, they're gonna have trouble with that because you can't... well, they have weather machines that can do something maybe. They do. But... In the meantime... I don't know. The co-chairs of the Ukraine Recovery Conference in London, 2023, have made a joint statement, which I'd like to read a little bit. It's what they've agreed to, so we understand what's at stake here. Ukraine's partners have agreed to provide a further $60 billion to meet the recovery and reconstruction needs of Ukraine. The EU announced a new multi-year facility of $50 billion for recovery. The US announced $1.3 billion in additional aid to Ukraine, including $675 million to modernize Ukraine's critical infrastructure. I didn't know about that.

2:36:09 The UK announced a further 3 billion in guarantees to support additional World Bank lending up to 2027. 240 million of support for immediate needs. That's Zelensky's Coke habit. Switzerland announced a further 1.5 Swiss francs to support up to 2027 but here nearly 500 global businesses from 42 countries worth more than 5.2 trillion dollars and 21 sectors have already signed the Ukraine business compact pledging to support Ukraine's recovery and reconstruction. And to make sure that everything goes okay, the government of Ukraine and its partners are responding to business demand to extend commercial insurance coverage in Ukraine. The conference launched the London Conference War Risk Insurance Framework, which means you have no risk for your money. The taxpayers of all these other countries will pay in case your money gets blown up. Funny how that's not on the news.

2:37:13 Oh, there's never gonna be on the news. And I love seeing Kiev. You know, what is your impression that Kiev's under constant attack and like it's being blown up? Well, it's a big city. Yeah. And there's a missile that hits it about once a week. Yeah. And the missile costs X amount of money and it's killing maybe five to ten people. But eleven this last time. And so it's a very expensive process to kill the people. And I don't even know that this is a missile. I mean, you don't know. I mean, this whole thing is such a scam. They're not under bombardment and there's no swarms of drones hitting Kiev. They're hitting the areas around the Donbass mostly. Yeah.

2:38:06 I keep seeing... Occasionally some missile goes into Kiev. They have, you know, they have like three electric scooter companies, just like New York or wherever. I got these electric scooters everywhere, riding around, everyone's having a good time. Yeah, when they show the reports, the guys are in Kiev, they seem to be having a good time there. It doesn't look like it's... Listen to this. Doesn't look like Sudan or Somalia, that's for sure. The United States on Tuesday imposed sanctions aimed at disrupting gold mining activities that fund the Wagner Group in Africa, vowing to hold the mercenaries accountable for abuses days after they stage a mutiny in Russia.

2:38:48 The measures against the Wagner group have been previously planned but were briefly put on hold as US officials sought to avoid appearing to favor a side in the power struggle. So now they're going after Africa's gold. They call it sanctions, but you know, you know where that gold is going to wind up. Yeah. Not in Africa. Not where it belongs. Not in Africa. It's so, the world is so crazy. It's just crazy. You know, I should have played this clip earlier. I finally found it. We're back with the investigation into the gruesome death of an airport ground crew worker in Texas. The NTSB says a baggage handler at San Antonio's airport died after being ingested into the engine of a Delta plane Friday. The jet was taxiing after arriving from LA. A similar incident happened

CHAPTER 37 / 44 Discussion

Airport Engine Ingestions and Lab-Grown Chicken

The NTSB is investigating the death of a San Antonio airport worker who was ingested into a jet engine, the second such incident in six months. In a separate discussion, a producer's note reveals that lab-grown chicken requires "fetal bovine serum" (FBS) for cell culture. This serum is harvested from the fetuses of slaughtered pregnant cows, a fact the hosts believe would shock most vegans.

san antonio airport· ntsb· fetal bovine serum· lab-grown meat· vegans

2:39:40 happened in late December when a ramp agent at the airport in Montgomery, Alabama died after being pulled into a plane's engine. The American Airlines subsidiary involved was recently fined after investigators found a lack of communication and effective training. I'm telling you, I love this new thing. Your thinking is that because of these two pre-events, that could be Hunter Biden's fate. It would be perfect. He's always riding private jets, his buddy's private jet. It's just a feeling I have. Yeah. I need to... Well, first of all, we got another great note on the phony baloney chicken.

2:40:26 Which you said you're going to read. Oh, the chicken. Yeah, the latest note. You have it? I do. You said you were gonna read it. Yeah, I was gonna read it. In fact, I was saying dibs on reading it. But you can read it because you read the first one. Because I have it right here. It's a great note. So again, this is how the chicken is made in the... It needs a culture. You know, it needs a... Yeah, it needs... You don't make chicken out of thin air with this phony chicken. It has to be fed a nutrient and so the nutrient it turns out is well here's the note that explains it in great detail. FBS fetal bovine serum or fetal calf serum unbeknownst to most is made as follows in an abattoir slash slaughterhouse when pregnant cows are slaughtered they cut out the dead fetus

2:41:15 or calf, drain all of its blood, spin it down in a big centrifuge, and you're left with the solids and the serum. We filter and bottle the serum, and it's used for the cell culture of chicken! This is fantastic. It's so good. It's so great. It's so good. I can't wait. I mean, anyway. And so the guy goes on to mention that I wonder how many vegans know of this. No, vegans don't know anything. So, no. Now, what's really kicking off now is this semaglutide, known as ozempic, Wigovi, etc. Yeah, and now they're bringing out the pill version. No, it's not just the pill version.

CHAPTER 38 / 44 Discussion

Ozempic Pill Race and Thyroid Cancer Warnings

Pharmaceutical companies are racing to gain FDA approval for a pill version of the weight-loss drug Ozempic. While media reports frame the pill as a "game-changer" for those who are needle-phobic, the hosts highlight severe warnings in the product's packaging insert. Specifically, studies in rodents showed that semaglutide can cause thyroid tumors and medullary thyroid carcinoma, risks often downplayed in televised medical segments.

ozempic· wegovy· semaglutide· thyroid cancer· fda

2:42:05 It's the race to create the pill version. I thought the pill version was released. We're back at 7.49 this morning on In Depth Today. A closer look at the race to create an approved weight loss pill. Yeah, Ozempec and Wogoby both wildly popular for helping people shed pounds quickly. They require an injection though. However, there could be an option soon for those same drugs and others without any shots. By the way, this is a native ad in case you hadn't guessed. And it'll likely mean lower costs too. So here with what you need to know is Dr. Roshni Raj, an associate professor of medicine at NYU Langone Health. Dr. Raj, good morning. Good morning. This is kind of a big deal. A lot of people would shy away from an injectable, but maybe a pill they'd say yes to. What do you think we're going to see here? 100%. I mean, it's a good... 100%! 100%! 100%!

2:42:51 Pedro, when you think about the fact that the majority of Americans are overweight or obese, we're talking about a huge... Did you know that? First of all, they're bringing out all these associate professors. Oh, associate professor. Oh, associate professor. And she says, first of all, she says 100%. And then she says most Americans are overweight or obese. Really? I don't... Now, is that true? Most Americans are overweight or obese? I don't think so. I've heard the number 60%. So that would be most. That's not most. I think the number is dubious. Yes. All right. And I want you to hear the talking points and we'll discuss later. I mean it's a game changer when you think about the fact that the majority of Americans are overweight or obese. We're talking about a huge market here. And as you said the injections themselves have been wildly popular.

2:43:36 But there are many people who are either needle phobic so they really can't stand needles or they just much prefer a pill So now we're gonna be opening up access to many more people with that pill be like an everyday kind of pill that you take Yes, so different drug companies are working on pill forms. Most of them are once a day. One of them is twice a day So it is something you would be taking every day for sure cheaper cheaper than the injection. Yes, it is actually generally speaking speaking for medications, much cheaper to do an oral medication as opposed to an injection. Many injections have to be stored at cold temperatures, just putting it in the pen itself, all of that is an expense where with the pill, it should be significantly cheaper. A lot of folks just don't like needles either. Yeah, yeah. Whenever there's like a magic pill, it sounds amazing and you've been struggling to lose weight, but always on the other side of that coin, there's stuff that can go wrong. So what's the downside to this?

2:44:23 Well, when we talk about first of all side effects of the pill versus the injection, it looks like they're the same. So nausea, vomiting, constipation, diarrhea, probably the same percentage. Kidney failure, pancreatitis. And again, between 10 and 20% of people will have significant side effects to the point where they need to stop. But then in terms of the long-term consequences, you know we really don't know when it's for diabetes it has been studied, but for weight loss, you know this whole idea of slowing down the emptying of the stomach to make you feel full longer, that's part of how these drugs work. What are the long-term implications of that? And I just want to point out the studies really have looked at people who were obese or significantly overweight with a weight-related condition. This is not

2:45:01 been studied on people who want to lose 10 pounds before their wedding in a month you know so the fact that the pills especially are gonna open it up to so many more people we're also gonna see a lot of people using it for not necessarily the correct indication. Are there any plans to study that since it's clearly how people are using it? Absolutely yes because people are using it off-label, doctors are prescribing it, not necessarily for those stricter conditions. We are gonna see more research on that as well. What about a timeline on these pills? Any idea how soon we could see these come to market? Yeah, well, no. Oh my gosh, stop. No, no disc. I can never say that word. They are actually looking for approval later this year, so that's pretty close. Some of the other ones are still doing larger trials, so we won't see it until next year at the earliest. All right, Dr. Raj, we appreciate it. Thank you both. Nice to see you. Thanks so much. Good to see you. Good to see you all. Did you get a time code on that? I bet you it was right on the money.

2:45:50 256 yep pretty much probably three minutes three minutes three minute so if you look at the I have the insert the packet the package insert here and this is what I find so disgusting every and I have two more short reports every single reports oh yeah you know you know a little diarrhea by the way they have diarrhea and constipation which is interesting you're gonna both that's hard to imagine diarrhea constipation nausea vomiting yeah but by the way you know So is this for people who just want to, you know, lose 10 pounds before their class reunion? Well that's not really how you should use it, but yeah, that's how we want you to use it. That's why they keep saying it. Of course. You got a class reunion coming up, you know, lose some weight, don't go in there as a fatso. Here we go from the insert sent to us by the Noagen Anesthesist. What is the most important information I should know about Ozempic? Ozempic may cause serious side effects, including, what did you just hear? What are the serious side effects?

2:46:45 Constipation, stomach ache, nausea maybe. Right. Nothing much. According to the packaging insert it says possible thyroid tumors including cancer. Tell your health care provider if you get a lump or swelling in your neck, hoarseness, trouble swallowing or shortness of breath. These may be symptoms of thyroid cancer. In studies with rodents, ozempic and medicines that work like ozempic cause thyroid tumors, including thyroid cancer. It is not known if ozempic will cause thyroid tumors or a type of thyroid cancer called medullary thyroid carcinoma in people.

CHAPTER 39 / 44 Discussion

Medical Media "Native Ads" for Weight Loss Drugs

The hosts critique several "medical news" segments from ABC and NBC as thinly veiled native advertisements for Novo Nordisk and Pfizer. They point out that a pill version of semaglutide, Rybelsus, is already on the market for diabetes, but the current media blitz is focused on rebranding it specifically for weight loss. A Stanford doctor's claim that the drug is "safe and effective" is met with skepticism given the known side effects.

rybelsus· novo nordisk· pfizer· stanford· obesity medicine

2:47:22 To be avoided yes to be avoided here's ABC back now with medical news an oral version of the weight loss drug ozempic is on the way That's all thanks to a new study Researchers have found the active ingredient in both ozempic and we'll go V Maybe just as effective when taken as a pill instead of being injected now one doctor called the development a game-changer But some are warning of more side effects The oral drug likely won't make it to the market this year. Oh, but wait, we have to bring in Dr. Jen. All right, let's talk medical news. Dr. Jen, there's a brand new study that's talking about a pill version of the active ingredient in the popular weight loss drugs, what, Ozempic and Wegovy? Wegovy, that's correct. Could it be game changing?

2:48:02 Yeah, so big picture now. We're talking about an oral form of this medication that was FDA approved for people with type 2 diabetes back in 2019. Now it's being studied just for the end point of weight loss. So here's what the study found. They looked at about 600 plus adults with a body mass index greater than 30. They were chosen randomly. They did not, I want to repeat, did not have type 2 diabetes. In the group that took this oral semaglutide brand name Rubellsis, They found a decrease in their body mass index by 15% compared to just over 2% in those who were given placebo. Side effects were mild to moderate, short-lived, transient, mostly gastrointestinal of nature. And of course we have to remember there is a pretty significant cost to these medications if they're not covered by insurance.

2:48:55 But potentially now that we have some good data on this oral form, it's possible we could see it get an FDA approval just for weight loss in people who are overweight or obese. This is going to be great. I can't wait. Well, first of all, let's stop these clips and and ask ourselves, why are they playing these bullshit clips? I'm going to read you something. Right. Belsus. the pill version of Ozempic that is currently on the market. There you go. And made by the same manufacturer is approved to treat type 2 diabetes just like Ozempic. Which manufacturer? Same guys, Ozempic makes this. It's called Riebelsis and you can do the off-label prescription for it.

2:49:44 So what is the point of all these reports that are bogus? There's something else going on here. Are you sure Ribelsis is from Novo Nordisk? I'm just saying, I'm just reading it. Ribelsis is the pill version of Ozempic that is currently on the market and made by the same manufacturer. You look up Ribelsis, R-Y-B-E-L-S-U-S. I'm going to. You can get more details. Manufacturer, okay, this is interesting. Well, so it's either an ad against... No, you're right. Novo Nordisk announces FDA approval of label update. Oh, label update. Okay. They already had it out. This has been out for a while. Well, what is... Maybe it's not working right. No. There's something else. There's some other vendor coming in. Pfizer, I'm guessing.

2:50:36 Yeah, let's see this is bullshit these like everything you played is some part of some marketing scheme Well, of course, we just haven't quite put our and how do they get it? How do they live with themselves these people? They just look at their penthouse, they look at their Rolls Royce and say, yeah, I can live with myself. Let's finish up with Dr. Jen. Is there a reason you would choose the pill or the injection or the injection over the pill? To me, it'd be like, why would you give yourself a shot? Well, first of all, frequency of dosage, the injection, which by the way is not painful, but a lot of people just don't like the idea of giving themselves an injection. It does have to be refrigerated. It's dosed on a weekly basis, once a week.

2:51:19 pill obviously would not be refrigerated and it would be taken every single day. So just a different route of administration. I think it's great we're seeing more in the field of obesity medicine for options for management and treatment. Again, not for everyone, but for some people this could be significant. You said it, more options. Thank you. Yep. Okay, here's why. Ribelsis has only received FDA approval for people with type 2 diabetes. What they're talking about here is the same damn pill with a different label on it called ozempic in pill form and that will be approved. Is it going to be ozempic in pill form or is it going to be a different company?

2:51:59 What the slides show is Ozempic. They show Ozempic in 2023, Pfizer, you know, not known yet, probably 2025. Pfizer, by the way, has not done well with their stage two trials. Of course not, because people are going to die from this. Don't take this, people! Yeah, that's just I don't want to give medical advice, but I'm just looking at the insert and it doesn't look like a good idea to me Final from NBC also this evening a lot of people buzzing about Ozempic is it a miracle drug for losing weight a doctor at Stanford says yes now here comes another associate professor and listen to this is

2:52:39 I don't know what this is. This is from your area, NBC Bay Area. They do a whole native ad up there. It's the real thing. Azepic's primary use is to help people with type 2 diabetes, to regulate their blood sugar levels. But it's quickly become the latest craze for weight loss. According to experts, it can help patients shed up to 15% of their body weight within a matter of months. If you're looking to drop some pounds, you might be thinking, sign me up. But there are some downsides here. Let's talk about it. With us tonight, Dr. Dan Azag... Azag... This is another native ad. They're just going to tell you it's good for your high school reunion. Some downsides here. Let's talk about it. With us tonight, Dr. Dan Azag... Excuse me. Azagiri. From Stanford. Doctor, thanks for being with us. Bottom line here, does it really work and is it safe? Does it work and is it safe?

2:53:31 Yeah, thank you for having me, Raj. It works and it's safe. There you go. It works. It's safe and effective. And the FDA has, the role of the FDA is to tell us that. And that's exactly what they've said. Oh, the role of the FDA. Oh, my God. I can't believe what we're doing to our fellow citizens. It's just it's so outrageous. I don't know what to do. Well the only thing you can do is to vote for RFK Jr. There you go! I'm gonna show my support by donating to No Agenda. Imagine all the people who could do that. Oh yeah, that'd be fab. Yeah, on No Agenda. In the morning. We have a few people to thank for show 15... 1568.

Final Donor Acknowledgments and "The Bear" Review

The hosts complete the donor list, thanking producers from Texas, Ohio, and the Netherlands. They briefly debate the merits of the Hulu series "The Bear," with Dvorak praising it while Curry remains skeptical. A first-time donor from Maastricht is acknowledged, and several producers are thanked for their "wit and candor" in supporting the show's 1568th episode.

Global Meetups and "Summer of Pride" ISO

The hosts promote upcoming listener meetups in Idaho, Illinois, and Zurich, emphasizing that "connection is protection." They play a final ISO of Admiral Rachel Levine saying "Happy Pride," which they jokingly suggest running through AI enhancement. The segment reinforces the importance of the local "Sanity Brigades" in maintaining community ties outside of mainstream social media.

CHAPTER 43 / 44 Discussion

Germany-China Trade Relations and EU Isolation

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz agreed to support free trade with China despite warnings from intelligence agencies regarding cyber-spying and military technology theft. Critics argue that Germany's dependence on Chinese markets for its machine tool exports is isolating it from the rest of the EU and the United States. The hosts suggest Germany is being forced into China's "Belt and Road" sphere following the destruction of the Nord Stream pipeline.

3:11:48 It's not easy. All right, we have uh, we have we have room we have time for one more uh something or other I'm sure. Well I have I have a two-parter I want to get out of the way. Okay. And this is the Germany getting cozy with China clips. And I think they're important because something's up with these clips. Okay, I have my thoughts already. I'm looking forward to it. Clip one. One step closer to China, one step away from Europe. German Chancellor Olaf Scholz and Chinese Premier Li Jiang on Tuesday agreed to support free trade after intergovernmental talks in Berlin.

3:12:26 Shor's has come under fire for the talks which critics say are not appropriate anymore given growing geopolitical tensions between the West and China. A German intelligence agency published warning in a report on Tuesday. The report says China is aiming to obtain German technology to bolster its military. It also highlights the risk of cyber-spying operations. Despite that, the German Chancellor defended his position on the two countries' relationship. Author and historian Philippe Fabry says Germany's tough spot comes from the country's economic choices.

3:13:01 A large part of China's industrialization has been achieved through the purchase of German machine tools, which is the biggest export sector for the German economy. So naturally, exporting those is vital for Germany. This conditions Germany's relationship with China and puts it at odds with the interests of many other Western countries, notably the United States. The German Chancellor's position doesn't come as a surprise though. When visiting China in November 2022, Schultz promoted partnership with the country. And in May, he confirmed a deal to allow a Chinese shipping company to take a minority stake in a container terminal at Hamburg port.

3:13:42 Fabri says these moves from Germany make it more and more isolated from other EU countries. Since the start of the war in Ukraine, there has been a loss of German influence in Europe. That's because of a whole host of German strategies and in particular Germany's dependence on Russian gas, which has brought some form of discredit. Okay, I love this. Good clip. Here's what I think is happening. I know you have a second one. So I'll just give you my unsolicited feedback. Germany got screwed. They've been screwed over by being hypnotized into believing it was a good idea to get rid of their nuclear, get rid of all... I mean they were the powerhouse of Europe. They used to say if Germany sneezes, the rest of Europe gets the flu. And that's no longer the case. So they got completely psyoped in getting rid of all of that. They have no industry.

3:14:40 We blew up the pipeline so they have no gas, they have nothing to do and now they're going to become part of the Belt and Road scenario for China and they will become the adversary in Europe. How does that sound? Case in point, on the same day as Germany's announcement, the EU published an economic security plan. It seeks to convince the bloc's 27 states to agree stronger control on exports.

3:15:16 It's particularly focused on technologies that could be put to military use by rivals like China. I think we're seeing a power struggle as the EU pledges to harden its relationship with China, which is also hoped for by the US camp, who are determined to have the Europeans on their side in the strategic confrontation against China. Wow! That's... You know what? Even though it's late in the day, I think that deserves it. Out of left field! Yep. This is a big deal. Totally. Belt and Road with China. And they're gonna have the shipping come right up onto the... Oh man. That's the crack in the EU dam right there. No, but they won't know what to do. They won't know what to do. I wonder if they even see it. Stupid morons.

Show Sign-off and "Everything's a Scam" Mix

Adam Curry and John C. Dvorak sign off, announcing their return for the July 4th weekend. The episode concludes with a musical mix featuring the "Everything's a Scam" song and a discussion on the origin of the word "meme," credited to Richard Dawkins' 1976 book "The Selfish Gene." The hosts reiterate their critique of low-quality meme culture before the final credits roll.

3:16:15 Well, Germany's gotta do something about their power issues. Well, they... yeah. I don't know what to do. Fire up the ovens, boys! I don't know. Please, uncalled for. Uncalled for.

There you go. There we are, working again. We'll be working, working again.

3:17:18 Coming to you from the heart of the Texas Hill Country here in FEMA Region Number 6 in the morning everybody, I'm Adam Curry. And from Northern Silicon Valley, I'm John C. Dvorak. We return on the four-day weekend that we're working. Remember us at dvorak.org slash NA. Until then, adios, mofos, a-hooey-hooey, and asuch! You know, that's just patently absurd. It's so absurd, it's insulting. It is. This might be a hot take for goodness sake Follow the money you dummy just to see who's on the take They incentivize, sterilize, better measure for your wealth You should be a health doctor's praised by the public as an expert class One size fits solution all the mass is trash All praise do like a clergy in a mass Forum not to question the science consensus like Neil deGrasse What about the Dell Big Tree debate?

3:18:20 On the high wire, left to left, these irate RFK, Rogan and Andrew Tate Put up millions for charity to get hostess to debate You turned it down I write a paper, nah I'm straight, nah you're a clown No agenda producers where we get our news More boots on the ground with Great reviews, show notes, search and media dissection Meetups are proof that connection is your best protection See you in Toronto, I must be high Meetup at Mitzorny's, just come on out and don't ask why You all Harari in the Bible, I believe

3:18:55 These blizzard people are not going away, ask yourself why? Screen time, take the fall from kids and turn them into screen time Who's addicted more, the parents or the kids? Autism and the spectrum, it's expanding 1 in 10k 30 years ago, 1 in 34 and it's pretty maddening They don't really wanna know, RFK will be fact checked by the fact checkers for sure Life is a scam. This thing is a scam, this whole thing. Life is a scam. This thing is a scam. Life is a scam. Yeah, but it's in on the scheme, this whole thing. Death and destruction. Life is a scam.

3:19:47 This thing is a scam, this whole thing. Life is a scam. Life is a scam. Life is a scam. This thing is a scam. Memes. Just imagine using the same meme image endlessly for days and weeks and months and even years. P-O-S-T M-E-M-E-S Post memes. Memes. Memes. But to understand why we use the word meme, you have to go back to 1976, when Richard Dawkins wrote this book, The Selfish Gene. The meme is a unit of cultural inheritance.

3:20:39 It's anything that's copied, anything that's imitated, anything that spreads around like a virus. I'm surprised that people took my criticism of memes so seriously. It's like, I don't care, you do whatever you want, I'm just saying. You notice that most memes really stink yeah, and people you know they're proud of having 10,000 means Lousy means in the folder having one or two good ones They have like one after another after any mean they oh, there's a mean let me post it I was like an appliance salesman. I hated my life. I was super sad. I was just on Facebook all the time making dumb memes. So then I just got fed up after like my van broke down, my girlfriend broke up with me. I was just lonely and I just sold all of my stuff with like $300 and flew out to LA. I've literally survived off of meme money like this whole like year. Where the fuck is he gonna get a job where he can look at memes all day?
