About this episode

The Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission is moving to regulate the podcasting industry by requiring registration for any streaming service generating over $10 million in revenue. This regulatory shift, alongside the sudden 12% workforce reduction at New York Public Radio, signals a volatile period for digital media. While WNYC CEO LaFontaine Oliver blames a collapsing ad market, the rise of the value-for-value model offers a decentralized alternative to the traditional podcast industrial complex.

In Texas, Attorney General Ken Paxton has launched an investigation into the Colony Ridge development following reports of an unregulated migrant settlement north of Houston. Simultaneously, Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson has called upon the military to assist police in quelling a surge of gang-related bombings and shootings. Across the Atlantic, European Union ministers are finalizing a migration pact that could extend detention periods, while the French government deploys a national plan to combat a bed bug infestation threatening the Paris Olympics. In California, Governor Gavin Newsom signed a $20 minimum wage for fast food workers while the state investigates a suspicious spot market transaction that drove gas prices above $6 per gallon.

This episode features a retrospective on the political legacy of the late Senator Dianne Feinstein and her complex history with US-China trade. The production team acknowledges Sir Rean the NICU Dad for his knighthood and corrects the record on ATACMS rocket pronunciation. The show concludes with a look at the end of Chinese panda diplomacy as zoos across the United States prepare to return their bears to Beijing.

Canada Podcast Registration, CRTC Online Streaming Regulation

Canada's regulatory body, the CRTC, is implementing new registration requirements for online streaming services and podcast providers generating over $10 million in annual revenue. Critics argue this move toward government registration of podcasters threatens free speech, while proponents suggest it aligns with existing national content regulations for traditional media.

00:00 Girls beat me up. Adam Curry, John C. DeVore Action. This is no agenda favoring favelas and broadcasting live from the heart of the country here in FEMA region number six in the morning everybody I'm out of curry for Northern Silicon Valley where Canada's not requiring podcasters to register Yet. I'm John C. Borak. It's Crackpot and Buzzkill! In the morning! Well, I didn't expect this to be the first item on the menu but i have some thoughts about this

00:41 Well as a you as everyone knows yes for the last 20 years. Yes, I've been predicting this Predicting what exactly that we are gonna eventually have to register as podcasters well But we already have a podcast license so we're kind of good to go well that was that's our hope Actually, they could just grandfather our podcast licensees in. That would be good. Easily! So the idea is that now Canada already had... Canada by the way I'm not against the basic premise of if you have a publicly funded... Wow it's raining like crazy here If you have publicly funded media which Canada does They also have commercial radio but let's just publicly funded media and this is... And they've publicly funded their newspapers

01:32 Yeah, well that's a different story. Put that off to the side and stick a pin in it. And France does this and I think the UK had some regulation at some point that if you're playing music as an example You need to play a certain amount of national product If its public media then im not necessarily against that But thats somehow morphed into the online... what do they call this? The CRTC which is the Canadian regulator They had the online streaming services regulation. And to me, that still is for music and not necessarily for Canadian news or anything like that. There's really although we're starting it now with podcasting 2.0 there's really not a lot of music in podcasting so now they say well you know we need to... We were probably gonna have to have podcast companies

02:31 that offer audio or video content and generate more than $10 million in annual revenues to also register. And so, that's kind of being turned into oh it'll be podcasts as well? So I think there is a lot of people jumping on this trying to make big noise and you know...so they pay attention to them Yeah, I'm a podcaster not in on over my dead body. You know what i mean? Jordan Peterson... Now Jordan Peterson he just might make 10 million dollars! I don't know um but so this would be more for well literally an outfit like like um the Daily Wire even though you know I doubt that they as an American company have to register in Canada

03:13 And that's kind of the crazy thing about it. It's like, do you have to be in Canada? Or do you have to talk if you're talking about Canada? I mean what they want to do with this? Makes no sense! Makes no sense... Hello? Yeah, hello? No but yeah, I think your right Eventually there will be registration. I don't know if that'll happen here But Canada? Yeah sure Europe absolutely I was in Houston yesterday Yes, you went to Houston I did I did for the spark media ignite conference You know I don't spark me. Yeah It's a it's a podcast conference for God casters. I did the keynote Tony god casters are there home man This is are you the poop? God caster under what oh

CHAPTER 02 / 41 Discussion

Spark Media Ignite Conference, Lifetime Achievement Award

A podcasting conference in Houston, Texas, recently hosted a gathering of "Godcasters" focused on religious content. One of the hosts received a surprise lifetime achievement award at the event. The discussion highlights the massive audience sizes of religious networks like Focus on the Family compared to the mainstream podcast industrial complex.

04:10 A podcaster, god caster put together. P-P-P-P-God? P-God caster. No I'm not a God caster. P-God caster! P-God caster. Or the good podcasters They surprised me with a lifetime achievement award which i was not expecting Which is always kind of weird it's like my life is over now I'm done Yeah It is How are you supposed to get that when you're 80 You know its like...it feels like oh man I don't feel good about that Its called the pathetic end of life award that they give out to people, like maybe you could have won some more awards. Let's give you this and then you can die in peace? Yeah I guess that was it. There is God casters who have quite the focus on the family guys. They have millions of listeners. It is unbelievable! That's pretty big but do you know what you don't hear at a god caster conference? People don't come up to you and say hey man how many downloads did you get? That you don't here not from a single person whereas any other... Have heard that anywhere?

05:12 In the podcast industrial complex? Oh yeah! Oh absolutely, how many downloads you have for that show. It's horrible it's horrendous. Did they always end with a belch? No it was more like... No this is horrible people are horrible But that's because they know that anyone in the God casting business have relatively no doubt. No, that's not true! That's not true. Yeah I was surprised to see this audience size you know there is a lot going on How big was the audience? As i said again as i said focus on The Family Podcast those guys have like four million listeners

New York Public Radio Layoffs, WNYC Staffing Crisis

New York Public Radio (WNYC) announced a 12% reduction in its workforce, cutting approximately 30 positions from its 340-person staff. CEO LaFontaine Oliver cited a sharp decline in the advertising market as the primary driver for the cuts. The organization faces criticism for its high overhead costs, including the 22-person production team for the show Radiolab.

05:54 We send some of the people our way. You know, they're big no agenda guys they talk about us all the time Well that's nice I don't see it in todays donations Speaking of donations you know i'm glad we at least do donations you see New York Public Radio They're going to cut 12% of their workforce, which first of all it's amazing that WNYC... How many people do you think they have full time for a public radio station in New York? And I'll preface this by saying when I worked at Z100 in New York the number one station on the market at the time in the early 90s. I think they had 25 people and that included Bubba The Love Sponge who did The Prize Man

06:41 How many people do you think New York Public Radio, WNYC employs full-time? Well then I would have to... it's New York. Big! Yeah So i would say 25 340 What?! 340 full time employees Oh and they had to cut 10% or what was it Yes And and you know that That's 30 people that's the number of people are cutting are less than the total number of people that you had at that other station so You know the Radio Lab? You've heard the Radio Lab podcast go... Radio Lab! You've heard that show. Yeah. 22 people work on that show alone. 22

07:26 I mean, something went wrong in radio. Anyway... Listen to this. Yeah! Once you go to the public coffers, it doesn't make any sense. But it's not really public coffers. They get very little from You know, they get from the big foundations. That's where they get their money La Fontaine Yeah foundation money same public coffers Listen The New York Public Radio president and CEO His name is La Fontaine Oliver That's your problem right there! you got a CEO named La Fontaine Oliver that's an expensive operation Where'd this guy come from? The Ford Foundation This guy sounds expensive He sounds very expensive he said in a memo to employees now listen to this So where do they get their money from again? Public coffers

08:17 In a memo said to employees that quote, A free fall in the advertising market had led to the decision to cut staff. This reminds me I was getting some clips from it. I didn't do this clip but i just want to mention because kind of part of this. I'm listening to NPR And they had an ad for Squarespace that was clearly an ad with a call to action. You know, go get the Squarespace. They gave the website and the whole thing is completely out of control with public broadcasting. And we knew this in 2009 when were already complaining about NPR

08:57 selling ads and they're not sponsored or brought to you by, they're literally selling ads. Here is... And they had a downfall in 2009 if you recall. Okay moving on to money how are NPR's corporate underwriting revenues holding up in the recession? And what about foundation grants so this so there you go that was it that was the question here with the lady who was running all of NPR at the time her answer two different stories Underwriting is, underwriting is down. It's down for everybody I mean this is the area that is most down for us Is in sponsorship, underwriting advertising call it whatever you want Yeah call it whatever you want Advertise...it's advertising! The same people who sell radio ads for commercial ads Commercial stations Sell NPR It's a farce

09:51 It's a farce. I love the word farce because it sounds good word, I just don't hear you say it much as funny. It sounds so much like fart, you know? So you can say farce. Oh that's... I get it now. Farce, farce, farce. Anyway, this is truly the only way to go. Wow they had over 300 people working there doing what?! We have... I mean, even if you had 20 people doing ad sales you still have 280 people doing what? I really don't know. I really don't know! I mean 22 people on the Radiolab show and this is insane but it went look everyone but it's all over this is all over Spotify spent a billion dollars everyone got all jacked up and then it was over so over it's done people is done

CHAPTER 04 / 41 Discussion

Podcast Awards Industry, Value for Value Model

The podcast awards industry is characterized by numerous ceremonies that often require entry fees, which some critics label as a scam. There is a proposal to create a new "No Agenda" award system based on the value-for-value model rather than pay-to-play mechanics. Existing ceremonies mentioned include the British Podcast Awards and the Spark Media Ignite Awards.

10:43 Anyway, the reason why I brought up Houston is not to tout my Lifetime Achievement Award. But I got a lot of... What kind of an award? Was it a big giant trophy, was it a big thing like a sumo wrestler gassed or was it a little plaque. Or was something glass thing It's like a wrestler belt. Yeah. What was it? It's a glass thing. Glass mount. A glass thing. You know how big was this glass thing? Oh let say about the size of a large hand You know, it's a large hand. Yes. Like a large hand like my hand and that mounted on a nice handsome piece of wood. Handsome piece of wood? Yes. As you start giving it, I've said this don't want to interrupt your story, but I said this before. I'm going to say it again and then I'm going to maybe do something about it. OK, please. We should have the no agenda podcasting awards

11:45 make something official. We're the experts, let's face it when it comes to what's good and what's bad in the world of podcasting and we should do an award ceremony and those little glass things are cheap to make. And... It didn't look cheap but looked nice! Looked nice. Yes carved, yes laces. We don't even have to give people anything physical. Well a certificate will work doesn't matter. Yeah fire up the printer Brinner But yeah, well beside the point. The alternative media awards now that we've all media dot award we keep talking about this and will you know will be long gone and people's member those I think where I think this is the upcoming year 2024 is the year of the award We're gonna do it Do you know how many tired of talking? You know, I've always said this I don't like the idea of talking in no action. And I hate it

12:44 Wow said Mr. Action! Please! Well, there's a lot of podcast awards. That's the problem There must be 50 don't know of any ah they just had the British podcast awards They had the black podcast Awards They had the last night in fact while I was getting an award at the spark media ignite Awards Was the podcast Awards by blueberry Todd? You know the Todd runs those he's done them for 17 years and He's now completely virtual You know, there's a whole bunch of different awards. Maybe we should just do the Pride podcast Pride Awards about that? There is a category. Can you imagine how much fun we'd have with those entrants? Coolest color hair! Best teacher award. Best teacher podcasts I can just imagine. I don't know it seems like a loser to me. Why is it a loser as publicity

13:50 You get the award out there, it's something to do. You haven't heard about a single one of these podcast awards! There is no publicity. That's because they're...they're no good We can do them And how much we charge for entry? Entry fee cause they all charge an entry fee This is this is the scam That is a scam by the way. It's the same thing with wine awards, all these award things you have to pay them money to get nominated Yeah it's a scam I hate to say it no entry fee we just pick Well how do we make money on this scam then? Value for value Interesting We can get sponsors

14:34 That's fine, too. Yeah we get sponsors all right and I don't like the idea I think it's yes And we have the troll corrupt which is about the troll award with The one that the trolls choose yeah Maybe listen interesting idea alright so the reason why I brought up Houston yeah? I'm wondering Is because people are confirming it to me this colony Ridge deal north of Houston This is the big development that we've only seen by air where there must be, you know 25 000 homesteads. Apparently it's all trailers and this is where the migrants are now being given 12 percent unsecured loans for a trailer and I was reading this article because our Texas Attorney General who did not get kicked out

CHAPTER 05 / 41 Discussion

Colony Ridge Development, Texas Favela Claims

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is investigating Colony Ridge, a massive land development north of Houston described by some as a "shantytown" or "favela." The development reportedly provides unsecured loans to migrants for trailers and homesteads. The situation draws comparisons to historical FEMA trailer issues and Brazilian urban economies.

colony ridge· houston· ken paxton· migrants· trailer parks

15:31 He is saying, I'm going to go after this now. And he's when you know what he's calling it? He's calling it shantytown a favela. Wow! And I thought yeah this is exactly what you said and although people are horrified isn't really a bad idea so they're basically selling them trailers right? Yeah and the large shanty towns are gonna be mostly trailer parks Do you remember, this is not a new idea. Do you remember I think it was during George Bush administration when FEMA was bringing all these trailers in to Florida wherever the hurricane went and they were poisoning people with formaldehyde poisoning because the trailers are poorly made? Yeah well that I thought that was Katrina wasn't like Katrina Katrina yeah it was formaldehyde trailers yeah

16:26 Yeah, the formaldehyde trailers that FEMA was bringing in and putting people in. I think a favela or a shantytown completely made out of trailers so it's a giant trailer park is a fabulous concept. I was talking to two people last night who had been on mission to Brazil And they went into the favelas and the shanty towns, and they said it was actually quite interesting because there were knock on doors. Have you been saved by Jesus? But they would go in and these people would have expensive wristwatches and beautiful televisions on the wall. Which kind of goes to your basic idea that yeah, it looks crappy but it's not like it isn't an actual economy and doesn't work. It's just you know whoa we're horrified by the idea but I don't see what other option there is? There is none! I think you're right

CHAPTER 06 / 41 Discussion

European Union Migration Pact, Schengen Area Borders

European Union ministers are nearing a formal agreement on a new migration and asylum pact intended to balance the distribution of migrants across member states. The proposal includes extending detention periods and increasing processing centers at external borders. Tensions remain high as countries like Germany and Italy debate the role of NGO rescue ships while internal border controls threaten the Schengen agreement.

european union· schengen· migration pact· ylva johansson· germany

17:24 Unlike Europe where they have completely gone to problem, reaction and here's the solution part. Well the big muckety-mucks got together they had their working on a deal listen carefully to what they're doing about the migration crisis I'm sorry it's irregular immigration in the EU The European Union has been trying to regulate its efforts to deal with the migrant crisis for years. Now, finally agreement may be close. This crisis proposal gained a huge support By the way all these people they don't this is nothing no one gets to vote on this it's just this commission work they're just doing it

18:02 And they're all getting together and the end all the b-rolls I'm laughing and patting each other on the back. And I have to say, I have to say the EU has taken admittance administrative state. I can't say it's administrative state To an extreme. Oh yeah It's like let's take this idea which the Americans developed and let's institutionalize it It's unbelievable. But they're all just hanging out, you know? They go to Malta, they go to Brussels... There is always a different location. Because we have found the right balance that member states will support and I am sure that in a few days we will also have the formal decision on the general approach on the crisis proposal and that is very much welcome So don't worry! We'll have a proposal, a balance You know what that means though, don't you? Balance

18:57 That means, hey everybody's getting some and you get some migrants and you get some migrants. This step forward for the migration and asylum pact is significant it allows the EU to extend the detention of migrants arriving in the bloc It will also compel members with external borders to deploy more migrant processing centers Don't worry more is coming but you just make more migrant processing processing centers, everything's okay. We're not going to change anything just have more processing centers so it doesn't look so bad." Collectively that could deter and improve authorities ability to deal with the huge numbers arriving on Europe's shores this year

19:36 The move will come as a relief and not just to those working on the front lines of the crisis. German objections had been the last roadblock to progress on the deal, those fell just as the country announced plans to boost checkpoints at its borders with Poland and Czech Republic. Others have already made similar moves after Italy Slovenia said it was tightening controls at its border with Croatia now this here's the problem The whole idea behind the European Union, well really two things. The most important is the euro get rid of your money you're done we control you because we control your money. The second one no borders

20:12 Schengen, no borders. Everybody can cross around do whatever you want work in any country and this was the big European promise This was the big dream of like the United States of Europe You know this is what it was and now it's it's in jeopardy I'd like to stress that this is not about establishing internal control but about reinforced compensatory measures Compensatory measures? They just wanna get paid Isn't that what that means? Compensatory measures, compensation. Yeah it's exactly what it means. Hey Joe it's okay bring them in but we just need to get paid come on Europe pay us! At risk could be a founding principle of the EU itself the free movement of people inside the Schengen area of the bloc has been described as one of the main achievements of the European project. The migrant crisis may have threatened that

21:04 We are fighting so that the European Union's internal borders can be kept open. But we need this European solution, otherwise Schengen is in danger." Authorities in Germany alone have recorded more than 204 thousand asylum applications this year. 78% compared to 2022 and doesn't even include the 1.1 million Ukrainian refugees who fled the war with Russia." Oh, I forgot that! And the Ukrainian refugees...and as we discussed in the last show this is all a giant United Nations project it's been going on for years. Here i have another document that I put in the show notes like that migration replacement document from 2000 uh in the EU Henry Kissinger 1974

CHAPTER 07 / 41 Discussion

Henry Kissinger 1974 UN Study, Population Control

A 1974 United Nations study associated with Henry Kissinger outlined strategies for encouraging fertility decline in developing nations. The document suggested that priority in general aid programs should be given to development policies that motivate smaller family sizes. The text also mentions providing minimal education levels for women as a potential lever for population management.

henry kissinger· united nations· population control· fertility decline· world population plan

21:49 We need to create conditions conducive to fertility decline. So we need... What? Yes! Where did you get that one?! This is from his own UN study here, for its own merits and consistent with the recommendations... Wait wait who published this? The UN. For its own... This UN has got it go. Well for its own merits and consistent with the...this is Henry Kissinger And consistent with the recommendations of the World Population Plan Of Action Priority should be given in the general aid program to selective development policies in sectors offering the greatest promise of increased motivation for smaller family size.

22:36 In many cases, pilot programs and experimental research will be needed as guidance for later efforts on a larger scale. You know like sterilizing your kids? The preferential sectors include providing minimal levels of education especially for women... I'll read that again! Minimal education levels especially for women. Well that could be read either way of course yeah let's assume they mean it in a positive way That's hard for me to do. Well, increasing income of the poorest especially in rural areas including providing privately owned farms isn't that kind of the favela idea?

CHAPTER 08 / 41 Discussion

NGO Funding, Migrant Resettlement Industry

Non-governmental organizations (NGOs) receive significant government funding to manage migrant resettlement and homeless services in cities like Austin, Texas. Critics argue these organizations lack incentives to solve the underlying problems because their funding depends on the continued existence of the crisis. The discussion characterizes these entities as a modern, taxpayer-funded version of subversive political movements.

ngos· migrant resettlement· austin· government grants· non-profits

23:21 I think it's more the homestead idea. You're taking a negative attitude here? I'm sorry, but where is this really coming from you see these boats you know coming over and this is pretty much the only thing that mainstream media shows that I can find at least This is all NGOs This is all non-governmental organizations And then non governmental organization gets money receives money from the government to do certain tasks. Austin has a billion-dollar NGO to... There's your exit strategy. To resettle migrants, asylum seekers in the United States now listen to this European Union ministers responsible for migration gathered to try and hammer out agreement I like kind of even like the way that title reads The ministers responsible for migration they're responsible for it they're not they're not responsible for stopping it

24:25 No. The European ministers, they have ministers whose job it is to bring in migrants. European Union ministers responsible for migration gathered to try and hammer out agreement on a proposed migration and asylum pact. Discussions yielded no final deal Spain, which currently holds the EU presidency struck an upbeat tone saying that the talks had underscored the need to tackle the migrant crisis. The pact on migration is today more than ever a necessary agreement We cannot do without it. It is one of our most immediate challenges, which will require flexibility, effort and generosity from all of us." The EU's top migration official Ilva Johansson was also upbeat saying an agreement was imminent. This woman is a piece of work!

25:17 Oh man, you know the hair. You know that the jacket she's wearing. You know the jewels she's wearing and she's oh She's a beat because I'm sure that in a few days We will also have the formal decision on the general oppose only on the crisis proposal And that is very much welcome Welcome. A clash between Germany and Italy in talks stalled progress, one sticking point was over the role of NGO charity ships conducting migrant rescue operations in the Mediterranean So all you have to do is get on a rubber boat look dangerous and then you send up the flare and here comes the NGO boat. Well, don't worry we'll take you to safety. Italy's foreign minister meeting his German counterpart in Berlin spelled out Italian concerns. Nobody is waging a war against

26:07 We only say, however that they cannot be as Frantek said a sort of magnet to attract irregular migrants who then let's say are always brought to Italy. The clock is ticking on sealing the deal that is vital to address the migrant crisis in Europe. Officials say an agreement needs to be in place by February with European elections due in June This with an estimated quarter of a million irregular arrivals in the EU so far this year. So they have to get some kind of deal done before the elections? Why, because someone else comes in and then they get the NGO money? It sounds very suspect it's not good. That's interesting these NGOs are the subversive modern version of a subversive Marxist Not even so subversive

27:03 We just, no one talks about them. No one mentions them by name. And then the government pays for it! Yeah? It's like paying for your own demise I'm gonna hire a hitman to go after me and this stuff happens all over our own country where NGOs or non-profits you know call advertising whatever you want to call it they get money from from city governments, local municipalities and they have no incentive at all to solve problems. That's one of Austin's big problems We got homeless now we need another 600 million dollars to solve that problem And what do they do with it? Oh let's go buy hotels Let's stick them in hotels Let's spend it on hotels The hotel thing is phenomenal

CHAPTER 09 / 41 Discussion

Los Angeles Hotel Homeless Proposal, Tourism Impact

A controversial proposal in Los Angeles suggests placing homeless individuals in hotels alongside paying tourists and families. Representatives from the hotel and accommodation industry warn that this policy could devastate local tourism as consumers choose hotels outside the city limits. Concerns are also raised regarding the lack of medical training for hotel staff tasked with managing vulnerable populations.

los angeles· homelessness· hotel industry· public policy· tourism

27:55 I mean, this is... So now in Los Angeles even though it's not just irregular migrants which i think is a great term. The homeless! Now Los Angeles has the solution they're not going to buy up hotels No, no, no Here's the... What is this outfit? The America... Oh, the hotel and accommodation organization, the LA chapter. They have a... not these guys but the city has a proposal what to do with homeless and irregular migrants in Los Angeles. The fight that we have in Los Angeles

28:35 is one of the worst public policy ideas, perhaps the worst public policy idea I've ever heard of. And that is to take the homeless population that deserve a serious solution to a serious problem and try to patchwork that problem by placing them in hotels alongside regular tourists and families paying guests. This sounds great! And he's going to tell us why it's great. It is a disaster waiting to happen, it doesn't help the homeless, I love that story of the industry almost overnight. Look consumers have choices look they don't have to go to Los Angeles they only have to go to California and choose somewhere else but if they want to go to the LA area they can simply choose a hotel outside of Los Angeles

29:22 That's not that difficult. No consumer is going to actively make a selection where they know that the homeless population is going to be in the room right next to them, or at the swimming pool, or in the lobby. I mean these are people this population needs help it is a serious issue. They need medical professional help hotel workers are not trained for this and put them in that type of danger It is a terrible idea. What we know for certain won't work and should never even be proposed, is this idea of mixing that population with the regular traveler, the mom and dad that are trying to take their kids on vacation. That's just a terrible idea but it's dangerous for the guests but more importantly dangerous for the hotel workers

30:07 have to come to work each and every day and try to deal with a situation for which they've never been trained. Homelessness is a very serious issue that we all believe should be dealt with in a serious manner this particular proposal is not serious it's very dangerous, We certainly want to make sure it stops here in Los Angeles so that no other municipality in the country tries something this dangerous For a better life, beyond your freedom. Build back better for someone else... Hey! How about making it a tourist attraction? You too can live next to a homeless. Stay at the Hilton. Swim with the homeless. It's like swimming with the dolphins. Swim with the homeless. It's like swimming with dolphins. Poop in the halls?!

CHAPTER 10 / 41 Discussion

Sweden Gang Violence, Military Police Assistance

Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson has summoned the head of the military to discuss using the armed forces to assist police in combating an unprecedented wave of gang violence. September saw a surge in bombings and drive-by shootings linked to a feud between rival drug gangs. The Prime Minister attributed the crisis to "irresponsible immigration" and failed integration policies.

32:42 Because they're getting paid to sit at a desk, go to the gym and just wait for you know the next administration to come in which may or may not be better. You never know. Well it sounds like people job...you looking for a job? That's the place to work! Now if you thought that was bad The land of ABBA The land of Spotify The land of the Swedish chef is falling apart. Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson has vowed to defeat criminal gangs after a recent surge in violent attacks his comments follow a series of explosions reportedly connected to a gang war the centre-right politicians slammed quote irresponsible immigration and failed integration

33:28 On Thursday, Christensen also said he had summoned the head of the military to discuss how the armed forces can help police deal with this unprecedented crime wave. On Monday and Tuesday two powerful blasts ripped through residential buildings in the centre of the country injuring at least three people while three others were killed overnight Wednesday in separate attacks Bombings and drive-by shootings have claimed dozens of lives in September alone. Two gangs, one led by a Swedish Turkish Jew national who lives in Turkey the other by his former lieutenant are reportedly involved in the feud over drugs and weapons. Gang warfare now! Just gang warfare

New York City Flash Floods, Infrastructure Failure

Mayor Eric Adams declared a state of emergency in New York City following historic rainfall that caused widespread flash flooding and subway disruptions. While officials and scientists attribute the intensity of the storm to the climate crisis, residents point to failing drainage systems and neglected infrastructure. Governor Kathy Hochul also issued emergency declarations for Long Island and the Hudson Valley.

34:08 In Sweden, in Sweden! It doesn't sound right. It's all South Sweden come on Malmo. Yeah sure yeah and in New York City they almost had the right idea you know we got all these irregular migrants and I'm just making jokes about it these of course are people and we can't stop seeing them as human beings that They tried to wash him off the streets. the downpour brought back the memory of Hurricane Ida, which dumped record-breaking rain on the Northeast and killed at least 13 people in The Big Apple in 2021. This is not an ordinary rainfall this is historic we are on track to possibly create a new record of 10 inches of rain falling in literally 24 hours last time even had this number was in 1955 and that was over a two day period so... Wait a minute

35:19 So, did we have climate change in 1955? I guess so. But now she's... If you look at the list this is like number nine on the list of rainfalls in one day in New York it most of them took place in the year to first decade 2000 was a lot of stuff that goes back way back yeah and this is not that big of a deal although It happened the way I hear it. Let me finish this because a resident here tells you what the real problem is and I've received several emails with it. This is Hurricane Ida level water

36:00 According to the weather and city officials, by 2.30 p.m., local time as much as 15 centimeters of rain was recorded in several areas including Brooklyn Lower Manhattan and John F Kennedy International Airport The city had been experiencing during the week mostly steady rainfall which triggered a flash flood in area As the rain briefly slowed residents emerged from their homes to take stock of damage begin draining the water. The water keeps coming from the ground because there are no drainage systems from this location so all the rainwater they are not able to drain out from this area, so it's coming into our house now that's what the residents say you got no drains working and the sewers aren't right but that's not what the news is. You know we're really suffering Systems producing more intense rainfall have become more

36:50 commonplace in many parts of the United States due to the climate crisis. Scientists say more extreme and intense weather patterns are set to become the norm across the globe as the situation gets worse. Yes, it's climate change! Of course! So this happened in 2011? It was the storm of the century. It was the worst thing ever and it did this exact same thing to New York, and it was during our show where we remember most of these stories. Yes, were like elephants. And they threw tens of millions of dollars at fixing the infrastructure... I know what happened! The contractor says hey that was a once-in-a-lifetime thing nothing's gonna happen again in our entire lives let's just pocket the money and do nothing. I think you're right

37:34 That's exactly what it is. The only excuse because now some of the pictures are fabulous, they have this one shot of inside one of the subway stations and water squirting out of those white tiles! This is not a new... I mean I used to live in New York and New Jersey we got flooding like this so we had the subway stations flood. It means that I remember this So they took the money and ran. They did nothing, and then everyone blamed... Corrupt! Climate change is the world's greatest excuse to do nothing And I'm going to change my stance because climate change is 100% man-made Yes, I know what you're saying It's 100% man made for sure, I'm all in

38:22 And by that of course you mean this man created the whole idea. Yes, he of course created the whole hoax yes I got two clips on these floods as New York City floods one In New York City, up to five inches of rain fell in some areas overnight into Friday following a week of steady rainfall. A flash flood warning was in effect for the city until midday and Mayor Eric Adams urged people to stay put if possible I am issuing a state of an emergency for New York City based on the weather conditions I want to say to all New Yorkers... State of an emergency. It's not a state of emergency, it is the state of AN emergency! That's right on the mayor! I am issuing a state of an emergency for New York City. I mean that alone is like don't you just think okay well we're screwed? We're screwed! Based on weather conditions and what to say to all new yorkers this time for heightened alertness

39:18 and extreme caution. If you are home, stay home if you are at work or school shelter in place for now. What? Shelter in place! Shelter in place if your're at school for how long?! The city reported no storm-related deaths or critical injuries as of Friday afternoon, but the floods caused major disruptions to the city's subway system and the Metro North commuter rail service. The rainfall also shut down Manhattan's FDR Drive and delayed flights at LaGuardia Airport. It would have been funner if he said...

39:54 shelter in place and wear a mask. That would have, now that would have been dynamite. There are significant portions of the subway system that are shut down we are starting the process of reactivating certain lines but when water covers the electrified third rail we have to do inspections so that will be unfolding slowly The subway is another great piece of infrastructure. Some 18 million people in the New York metropolitan area and in other major cities along the East Coast were under flood warnings, watches and advisories. New York Governor Kathy Hochul declared a state of emergency for New York City Long Island and the Hudson Valley

CHAPTER 12 / 41 Discussion

New York City Rat Mitigation, Trash Bin Mandates

New York City is transitioning from curbside plastic bag trash disposal to a mandatory hard-sided bin system to combat the growing rat population. Business owners are already required to use containers, and the mandate will expand to all businesses by March. Residents expressed mixed feelings about the trade-off between cleaner streets and the loss of street parking to accommodate the large bins.

new york city· rats· trash bins· sanitation· eric adams

40:42 So yeah, nobody died. It can't be that bad No, I got a stepdaughter in Brooklyn She's not calling crying like you know and then Brooklyn was supposed to be one of the main places But yes, this is what happens and especially these airports come on look at the location Look at how they're set up together, but they're built on a floodplain exactly Hello That's because it is a nice flat area. That is what you do! Well, its good communication mechanism. Climate change... climate change I do have some other kind of another clip about New York that is I think more interesting because I was thinking about it You've been-you lived in New York? You've been to New York? Sure Everyone who has ever been to New York knows about these garbage piles of garbage on the street 24 7

41:38 Well, they're gonna finally decide to go to bins like every other civilized part of the world. Like so we can have the bin police like in the UK? You could have the bin police because of the rats! Yeah, rats! Now for a story about fighting an all-too common urban scourge Rats. For decades New Yorkers have thrown out their garbage in plastic... Wait, is this that 342 person station WNYC in New York? Is that what I'm hearing here? Well it's a public... It's probably broadcasting so it could be. Bags on city sidewalks they haven't used bins. Until now! City officials are starting to require more hard-sided trash containers. Why are we in America using the term bins

42:27 This is not an American word. We don't say dustbin, we say trash can you know what I mean? Trash container... Well you know here's that this is interesting as you bring this up this is classic news deconstruction ah there you go here we go stand by everybody so I've got bins in the end The whole East Bay, because it's waste management companies generally runs most of it. And so they have these bins and the big garbage trucks come by and they grab the bins with a big hook and they pull it over and dump it in. Cans to me... Because we used to have garbage cans within memory. Garbage cans is like a giant can with a lid that tightly fits

43:15 Right. And I think the square bins that have a flip lid, that get dumped into the truck is a bin! I've always thought of it as a bin but you're right and then it's not a can. Cans have to be made out of metal But we don't typically talk about bins in America Bins are UK things I know some of the word bin just, it's okay. It snuck into the vocabulary there is nothing we can do about it but here in Texas we will not say bins oh you don't say bins? You have bins though no that's a trap

43:50 Trash cans? Trash bucket. I don't say anything but bins, we don't talk about bins They haven't used bins until now City officials are starting to require more hard-sided trash containers and as Austin Cope reports they hope it will slow the city's growing rat population It's a Friday night in Manhattan and Elton Mitchell and I are standing in front of a row of apartments with a big stack Of black trash bags out in front you can hear a few very faint high pitched squeaks in the background Right now we see just a bunch of garbage that's out there and we hear rats actually making noise. Yeah, hanging out! Saying hey we're being on the radio too. They're doing hip-hop they're actually not quite close enough to the mic. They making a lot of noise which is very scary because if you walk down the block you never know they'll run right across your foot

44:36 who wants to get bit by a rat. But what does that have to do with the trash bags? A lot, because they're inside those bags there you know you scared to walk by because they are and they eating whatever is inside the bags so what would you do if he were walking by these bags right now across the street Who is this expert on rats that their talking too? This like the expert you had in last couple clips. This guy's like... That Mexican guy I'm an expert on rats! You got garbage, you get rats I walk in the street. Really? I do, I walk in the street. But then you don't want to cross over to the other side because there's bags on the other side too." This is exactly the kind of thing officials here are hoping to solve New Yorkers put out around 44 million pounds of trash each day

45:16 Since the late 60s, most of it has gone right on to city sidewalks like this one. New Yorker Ocean Thomas says it's no wonder there are so many rats. When you visit other towns, one of the first things that you notice being a native New Yorker is that wow these towns are so clean and they don't stink! And I think what stands out the most is that 1.) The trash isn't all over the place and if they're trash cans then they're contained Now the city started making people put their waste in bins. You know when I first moved to NYC That was before we had bins. We don't have bins yet! No, no bins. And the trash was just outside you know they picked it up at night. Beep beep there come the trucks waste management. Yeah made a lot of racket yeah the guys from New Jersey The Sopranos would pick it up

46:03 But this was 1987 and New York was a craphole. And we had rats, big ones! You'd walk down the street in Columbus circles... Yeah you see big rat ones. It's like this large cat-sized rat. ...and New York was in severe decline at the time. I gotta say it before Giuliani came in with Mayor Bratton he cleaned up the crime Police Chief Bratton cleaned up the crime and cleaned up the city And so this may be peak rat. I don't know, you have another clip so i presume you've got more rat info? More on the rats! Rats! Over the past couple months large businesses have to do it and so do restaurants grocery stores and other places that serve food next March all businesses will have to private residents don't yet but officials say more rules are on the way

46:54 Finding where to put all this garbage isn't necessarily easy. Victor Edwards lives in a neighborhood where the city's testing out new containers in the streets. No, no! We put the garbage where we've always put the garbage... Staten Island! Hello? Victor Edwards lives in a neighborhood where the city is testing out new containers in the streets If you look across the street where cars are parked it takes up approximately four parking spaces. Edwards leads a community board that represents residents' opinions, he hopes the city can plan for more than just the pasts We definitely want to get rid of rats I'm not saying we're going to live with rats but by the same token i want take in consideration all the other factors physically challenged people who have to carry these bags now and lift them up put them in our seniors are same thing and then parking officials hope to balance out larger bins on the street with smaller ones on the sidewalk

47:43 But they say there will be some trade-offs. Danielle Mills lives in the Bronx and owns a car She's okay with containers in the streets and sometimes people just throw their trash there. Taking up parking anyway, so I would prefer the bins to be there and I don't have a problem with sacrificing parking to make sure that you know we keeping the streets clean and cleared from garbage And for Tamika Jordan it really gets back to the rodents No one wants the little Mickey Mouse in that in their homes. I'm very afraid of them I'm very afraid. She hasn't had any at her place, but she's seen some near where she works so as more bins go in she's glad the rats will have a harder time reaching their next meal

48:22 Okay, I'm just thinking about this logically. Living in New York do you know how many bins you need on the street to... Will hold stop 42 million pounds of garbage a day? Let me think How many bins does that make lots of bins have been businesses is a day finally makes these bins and invest or doing what European countries have done Like Rotterdam, they went underground. So you go outside and there's a chute and you drop your bags down the chute They go... it's a big hole but it's uh You know, you don't see it on the top just the entrance But if you threw a body in there? Oh yeah would be fine And then the truck comes by and it has its own... and it pulls this whole huge thing out of the ground and dumps it into the truck That's the way to go

CHAPTER 13 / 41 Discussion

Plastic Recycling Innovation, Vanilla Ice Cream Project

Scientists have developed a research project that converts plastic waste into a substance resembling vanilla ice cream using specialized enzymes. While the product is not yet ready for human consumption, the project aims to rethink the global plastic crisis. The process involves breaking down plastic into its component parts to create safe food ingredients.

plastic pollution· recycling· enzymes· food science· ice cream

49:16 except if you drill down in New York City, the roads will be falling down. God knows what you're gonna hit! Now this of course is one of the big problems with our pollution is waste and the waste is plastic. Plastic takes up a lot of space and we're just going to replace it with more plastic bins but luckily scientists... You can chop the bins up for more plastic. Scientists have a solution for plastic And I'm very excited about this. This is a new ecological breakthrough. Plastic pollution is a looming global crisis The world now produces more than 380 million tons of it every year an amount projected to triple by 2060 at a glance, this looks like your regular vanilla ice cream but the dessert as the first of its kind in the world

50:07 Oh no! What? Okay. And feed people... The designer says the idea was born from frustration about the failure of the recycling system and how it cannot keep up with plastic production. But scientists say that ice cream very much remains a research project, not quite ready for consumption but rather a starting point to rethink the way we approach plastic waste.

50:46 perhaps misconception around what it actually is by the end of the process that it's no longer plastic. But I think as part of that, we... It is really important that we take the safety side of it really seriously and make it very clear this has to go through exactly the same processes and food standard processes as any other food ingredient. Yeah! So it'll be safe and effective? Don't worry, it's all good. Safe and effective recycled plastic vanilla But they give you enzymes so you can dissolve it in your body Oh yeah! Electrolytes Now maybe New York City is bad

CHAPTER 14 / 41 Discussion

France Bed Bug Infestation, Paris Olympics Sabotage

France is facing a national crisis as bed bug infestations spread through cinemas, trains, and hospitals in Paris. The government has launched a national plan to address the scourge just months before the city is set to host the Summer Olympics. Some observers speculate the timing and publicity of the infestation may be a form of political sabotage against President Emmanuel Macron.

france· bed bugs· paris· olympics· emmanuel macron

51:23 But that's nothing compared to France right now. We know that France is under attack, we know Macron is under attack the French are not playing game not playing ball they got too many nuclear plants you know they're just pains in the asses The EU doesn't like them they're tired of them So let's give them something to really, really think about. The French government taking the extraordinary step today of rolling out a national plan to stop an invasion... An invasion of what appears to be bed bugs infesting the country's biggest city. Oh not that bed bug story again! This is bad. Just months before they're supposed to host the Olympics and these bugs are not just in their namesake beds they're in trains

52:06 in movie theaters. They're in the big airport in Paris, look at this you can see here what looks to be a bed bug crawling along the armrest of one of the high-speed trains in France You could imagine people are just thrilled to see it they love it...they do not It stressed me out because this morning I had to take the train and I wondered whether i would find some so, I felt a bit hesitant but at the same time I know there are some also in cinemas and somewhat everywhere. So I paid close attention when stepping on the train and looked to see if there were any crawlers on my seat Josh Letterman, I'm just gonna tell you. I don't know if I'm moving through this like it is...I mean this is an infestation so bad that the French government is stepping in to fight this battle like what is the plan here? Yeah I'm so glad that we're talking about this on a Friday Night Hally. I'm never gonna be able to fall asleep tonight So thank you so much for that but seriously This is a crisis for the French government because this is the kind of thing that normally households deal with at the family level It's not the kind of thing

53:09 I think this is sabotage. Because it didn't start like in New York early in New York. They had no hotel bed bug problem We reported on that years ago this year, but no that was what that was the entire country There were problems and in San Francisco they also talked about bed bugs in the theater here Yes, there's a major major stories we have yes still in their archives I could maybe dig some up for the next show

53:53 Talking about the bedbugs, that's all they talked about. Well no it's Democrat cities is what you're saying That's what I'm hearing here But you are right The theaters This is sabotage and it started in the theatres UGC cinemas had initially ignored reports of bed bugs However It made a u-turn after customers threatened to boycott its cinema halls The chain has admitted that bed bugs are present in at least some of its cinemas. It published a statement saying that it was sincerely sorry for all the victims of bed bug bites However, the cinema says there are no grounds for compensating victims

54:35 The statement further underlines that the scourge of bedbugs concerns all public places along with private homes in France. Bed bugs have been discovered this year in theatres, hospitals and prisons in France. They were also found in the Marseilles underground network A recent report by the French government said that bed bugs had spread to about 11% of French households and were causing sleep loss mental health problems and absenteeism. This is going to bring down their economy! Well, if they keep promoting it... I mean bed bugs are not hard to stop. Bentonite spread around households in corners and stuff that kills them all because they can't walk across it. And then if you own the theater

55:29 Why wouldn't you have already sprayed it with malathion a number of times to get any kind of critter out of there and nobody's gonna know. I don't know. It's not going to poison the... This whole thing, you're right this is some sort of setup that is being done for a reason by someone Well the Olympics was the key part in the first report The Olympics are just months away And its in France Paris I think Yeah Paris Yeah, this is done. This is some sort of a program if can you imagine you have the Olympics? You put use you spend hundreds of billions of euros on Setting up your venues and getting everybody ready in the whole world goes nope not gonna go I'm going bed bugs I'm not gonna hey they could turn them into a snack take too many of them

56:17 I guess if you had a kind of maybe like a popsicle stick coated in honey and then you roll the bed bugs on them so eat like, get to eat a lot at once. I wonder if they're edible? Then dip it in chocolate. Yeah nice! There's something up with this yeah I agree It's like an extortion plot of some sort. Somebody did this they don't like Macron I mean and I think you know of all the problems in France This could get the French mad enough to kick him out Alright, we're sick of you now. We got bed bugs...we got irregular migrants... We've lost our ass on the Olympics which they always do anyway Every country loses out on that It's never good! Yeah it's amazing they get suckered into doing it time and again There has to be unbelievable amounts of bribery involved

CHAPTER 15 / 41 Discussion

California Gas Prices, Market Manipulation Investigation

Gas prices in California have surged to over $6 per gallon, with some areas reporting prices as high as $8. Governor Gavin Newsom approved a transition to a cheaper winter fuel blend to provide relief, while state representatives have called for an FTC investigation into a suspicious spot market transaction. The California Division of Petroleum Market Oversight found that a single transaction significantly contributed to the price spike.

california· gas prices· gavin newsom· oil market· price gouging

57:12 in the Olympic program system. So here's a question because it doesn't make any sense and you know, you predicted something else would happen I'm not blaming you and not calling you out but we were in Houston gas was $279, I'm sorry $379 for gas and here we're in Fredericksburg paying $460-$470 But California. Residents of California, they are already feeling the squeeze gas prices causing major pain at the pump ABC's Derek Dennis joins us now with some efforts to change that Derrick good morning we're talking over $8 a gallon absolutely Janay eight dollars a gallon for regular unleaded that's the staggering price in some areas of California and drivers are frustrated parking their cars or feeling forced to just pay up

58:03 The national average, about $3.82 a gallon California's average more than six bucks a gallon if you're lucky but topping eight dollars a gallon if you're not Prices up 80 cents across California in just the last month and here is why Gas prices are tied to the global oil market where it's all about supply and demand Oil producing countries like Saudi Arabia have been cutting back on supply driving up oil prices So what's being done? Governor Gavin Newsom approving a short-term fix, transitioning the state to using a cheaper winter blend of fuel while Republicans want to suspend the state's gas tax saving 58 cents on the gallon. Now you know a lot about this stuff You know a lot about the winter blends. You know a lot about the oil and gas industry in general What is going on? Why is oil so expensive or is it even that expensive

58:58 Is it 90? It's, it's 90 but which you know doesn't mean it should be 750 a gallon for gas. Around my area is 650 which is kind of high. Still high! Yeah that's really high but I think its a gouge being done and somehow being orchestrated and I think it all has to do with trying to get Biden out Well, this was a very interesting report that I heard. What you're saying there may be true. Listen to this. A report from the California Division of Petroleum Market Oversight. They found an unusual spot market transaction that led to gas prices skyrocketing

59:35 And we know that 50 cents of it was as a direct result of one spot market transaction. Is it the oil companies in the refineries doing this, that one single transaction or was it? We don't know. State Representative Mike Levin sent a letter to the Federal Trade Commission asking them to investigate the transaction because we're fed up with these all companies and market manipulation and price gouging. And we need for the Federal Trade Commission to work with the state of California to investigate, get to the bottom of it and hold those two account if anything is going wrong. So a spot trade so someone did a trade which had some bogus price in there? Yeah! That'll do it well for short term It will enough to get everyone irked but there's something up with this some of this stuff going on with getting rid of Biden I've noticed this any clips on this

CHAPTER 16 / 41 Discussion

Joe Biden California Visit, AI and Research Funding

President Joe Biden visited the San Francisco Bay Area for a series of fundraisers and a meeting with the Council of Advisors on Science and Technology. During his remarks, he emphasized the need to increase GDP spending on research and development from 0.7% back to historical levels of 2%. The council discussed using AI to predict weather extremes and advance cancer research.

1:00:33 Do have a couple I do want to play some biting clips, so he was in California Yeah, you have a clip. You have a special clip We've been holding on to I do yeah, you do you have the biting clip about him and LL cool llj oh it uh If we played it after the show you didn't played on this no III also didn't that didn't clip it II had you played it to me? I played it from the YouTube I think Well, let's play Biden in California mumbling. President Biden visits California for a two-day trip He attended several private fundraisers in the San Francisco Bay Area on Tuesday evening before making his way down the peninsula on Wednesday We're in a situation where we used to have a significant portion of our GDP going into research and development

1:01:25 and it got down to 0.7% from 2%. Biden's remarks came as he met with the President's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology. Speakers said they will report on recommendations on medical patient safety and experience, as well as possibilities and risks of artificial intelligence. They want to use it to predict weather extremes as climate change, create materials, and understand the origins of the universe. Wait a minute! We need AI now to validate this stuff that has been going on. Biden's visit and fundraiser events come as Congress continues to grapple with an impending government shutdown on October 1st, both houses are unable to agree on budget bills but Biden told reporters during his California visit

1:02:18 I don't think anything is inevitable in politics. And i'll just say if we have a government shutdown, A lot of vital work and science and health could be impacted from cancer research to food safety. Now shut up! Now I clipped this sub clip already mom tell me what he says here? I don't think anything's inevitable Oh that can hear it says I don't think anything's inevitable...and that's true I have the clip. During the Congressional Black Caucus Phoenix Awards, that's what you're talking about.

1:03:08 By the way, that boy's got... That man has got biceps bigger than my thighs. I think- That boy! Yeah that boy! Boy oh boy all right Joe he's got biceps you know? He's bred that way they make him like that on the cotton farms isn't that exactly what he sounds like yeah it's exactly it You know Newsome Let me see if I have this here. Newsom, who is he's you know he's making moves Newsom's making moves He's trying So they raise the minimum wage for fast food workers

CHAPTER 17 / 41 Discussion

California Fast Food Minimum Wage, Corporate Liability Deal

Governor Gavin Newsom signed a bill raising the minimum wage for California fast food workers to $20 per hour, the highest in the nation. The legislation was the result of a deal between labor unions and industry groups. In exchange for the wage hike, unions agreed to drop efforts to make parent corporations liable for the labor law violations of their independent franchise operators.

california· gavin newsom· minimum wage· fast food· mcdonald's

1:03:49 California. Here's a quick clip. California is raising the minimum wage for fast food workers, they'll soon be paid $20 an hour the highest minimum wage in the country The governor says the increase acknowledges that many fast-food workers are their families primary breadwinners There's a lot of mythology about fast food you know Johnny used to learn the value of hard work You know, he'd work a few hours in his first job. That's not the case folks! That's a romanticized version of a world that doesn't exist We have the opportunity to reward that contribution, reward that sacrifice and stabilize an industry About half-a-million workers will be affected by the increase Critics say the wage hike will place a bigger burden on both businesses and consumers So now I'm watching this take place...I'm watching this Newsom

1:04:39 announced this and this has nothing to, this was a reparations move. It was like it was literally like Newsom is saying I'm giving you reparations and it was received that way. A victory for hundreds of thousands of people across the state of California. Boy these were some tough mountains! For some, the new bill which raises the minimum wage for fast food workers to $20 per hour feels like righting a historic wrong. This is for my grandmother, my great-grandmother Johnny Tegels, my grandmother Bobby Pittman

1:05:18 And for my children, this is for my ancestors. This is for all the farm workers, all the cotton pickers." California Governor Gavin Newsom said the bill is a recognition of the fact that a majority of fast food workers are breadwinners. 80% percent of the workforce in these fast food places, are people of color. Two thirds, two-thirds are women! We have the opportunity to reward that contribution, reward that sacrifice and stabilize an industry in turn." I mean come on he's still interesting you know that was not played up here at all this is France 24 that's where it came from

1:06:03 All the cotton pickers, my ancestors. What? Were your ancestors working at- So somebody working at McDonald's flipping burgers is a reparation for cotton picking? That's... and yes! That was a good one if you pull that off. But listen, because there was a quid pro quo. There's more! There is, there is a quid pro quo. What a remarkable moment. Labor and business groups negotiated long and hard over the deal In exchange unions agreed to drop their efforts To make fast food corporations liable For the misdeeds of their independent franchise operators in California.

1:06:40 So McDonald's... But they got out of what? What scam was going on and what was that all about. I think McDonald's was under, you know and all the other ones well just use McDonald's were under pressure for the misdeeds of their franchisees so if the franchisee was underpaying a black person... They were gonna go after the deep pockets of the McDonald corporate yes it's now the state said no can't do that exactly they sewed up some deep pockets is what they did good work yeah Yeah? Hmm. Yeah, well... the whole thing's a scam. You can't just brush it off like that! Just say the whole thing is a scam! Well that's no good- I sure can! Well okay then while we're on this

CHAPTER 18 / 41 Discussion

Dianne Feinstein Retrospective, Political Legacy

Following the death of Senator Dianne Feinstein, discussions have emerged regarding her long political career as Mayor of San Francisco and her tenure in the Senate. Her legacy includes significant influence on US-China trade relations and a public clash with the CIA over the 2014 torture report. A 2019 video of her dismissing youth activists supporting the Green New Deal has also resurfaced.

dianne feinstein· san francisco· china· green new deal· cia

1:07:28 And by the way, let's stop for a second. Yes I'm sorry we'll back up Because you kind of glossed it over your shot through it like you know like prunes through a duck Yeah You were condemning me for the fact that I had predicted that after they did holiday that the gas prices would drop like a rock which they normally do and they didn't So I was wrong. I think you've admitted that more than once already, but I didn't say it to say you're wrong as like this is different because you typically are correct in these matters So something else happened and that's why... Yeah, you did find that there is something else which we haven't gotten to the bottom of. Well no what your saying it's a Biden thing is to get this to make Biden look bad I think its getting rid of Biden! I'm seeing more and more these little idiosyncratic small little touches here in there And all looks like anti-Biden stuff I think..and this latest thing with the impeachment inquiries and something new stuff coming out

1:08:28 It's pretty damning and they don't know what to do about it except, oh no there is no evidence that that's not working. Now before we go there you know what I'm missing? We can wait on that You know what i am missing? Dianne Feinstein so she passes away and the only thing that im seeing is, oh yeah who's Newsom gonna replace it with? We're gonna do... Where are the retrospectives of her life. I mean she or her politics may not have been in agreement with mine but she was a force to be reckoned with! Wasn't she mayor of San Francisco? She was cute when she was young if you look at the pictures she was cute

1:09:12 Yeah, she was cute. Good looking woman! She had an amazing career! Shouldn't they have this on the shelf? Shouldn't they been ready to like honor her? Have you seen anything of this sort?! Yeah, a couple of things here and there. They're minor but they weren't the big deals. Mostly what I've seen is testimonials run... Oh she was a great gal and she was like our friend you know? She'd come over to dinner once in awhile when she was in town with her husband. You know that kind of thing I just find it and of course you know we should do the retrospective. We should have put one together about her and the fact that she was an apologist for the Chinese government, encouraged government trade she made millions and millions of dollars off the Chinese back that she had a chauffeur who was a Chinese spy this is my favorite these are old clips from let me see this is from

1:10:12 2019. We are trying to ask you to vote yes on the Green New Deal Remember when the kids came into her office and like, hey we want you to vote Yes on the Green New Deal Scientists have said that we have 12 years to turn this around. Well, it's not going to get turned around in 10 years. What we can do is put ourselves- Senator if this doesn't get turned around in ten years you're looking at the faces of the people who are gonna be living with these consequences So the kids are pleading please senator Feinstein please save our souls I was elected by almost a million vote plurality

1:11:00 And I know what I'm doing. So, you know maybe people should listen a little bit." I hear what you're saying but we're the people who voted you You're supposed to listen to us. You know there are bunch of kids... By the way stop! She literally says that. You stepped on it but Well okay were gonna go back because your going to play this again Were the people that voted you? That's what the teacher says You're saying but we're the people who voted you yeah, and no that's a 16 year old. You're supposed to listen to us That's your old I'm 16. I can't vote for me

1:11:44 we're going to be the ones who are impacted. I understand that, i have seven grandchildren now and i understand it very well senator the cost of not taking this action is far higher than the cost of what the green new deal will be and there's enormous popularity for this bill around a whole country here asking you to be brave do this for us and for your grandchildren and the thing is They did it. We got the Green New Deal is called the I, the investment, the Inflation Reduction Act. And that's the green new deal just made inflation worse and made inflation worse than it hasn't done anything. And here is our favorite no agenda soundbite and her head has gone. That's the day we know Andrew had his gun. That's if that's the one we all know and love. That's a Diane. We want to retrospective of you're not going to get it

1:12:35 OK, but yeah. She was the big pro Chinese. She was also the one that was spied upon by the CIA directly even though she at the time as they had a dissented intelligence committee and she got all bent out of shape about it because she found out if you remember this is during that era where there were they had to torture report that they wouldn't release and she wanted it released And so then just as a retrospect She wanted it released. They wouldn't release the torture report, then they said okay we'll put the torture report in a one of those closed skiffs or whatever they are and people can go in and look at it if they want to read it if their members of the committee and so that's when the Republicans turned it over and got the Senate back in the day Got the Senate back and this guy I think his name was Burns or whoever's name was the guy who was the head of Burr maybe

CHAPTER 19 / 41 Discussion

Autonomous Military Aircraft, Air Force AI Integration

The Air Force Research Laboratory has released new footage demonstrating the integration of AI-trained neural networks into flight control systems. Military leaders are pushing for "collaborative combat aircraft" that operate autonomously in future battlespaces. However, experts note that the project faces significant hurdles due to a lack of standardized communication specs between different defense contractors.

1:13:26 was the Republican head of the Senate Intelligence Committee and he said, I don't want to look at it. Yeah. He refused to look because he's a guess you know that CIA told him not to because it was like restricted is whatever the case this is pathetic this whole situation there's government of ours well gets better. The F-35 op which I call an OP I said it resembled Top Gun 2 so closely where Cruz ejects. It's a weird thing, just like the 911 call of this top pilot and then the next scene is Ed Harris saying son Maverick you're out! You're yesterday's news we're working on planes that don't need pilots well wouldn't you know

1:14:22 not even 18 hours after we played that clip and discussed it. Here is a video brand new, brand new on the YouTubes from the Air Force Research Labs. Our senior leaders have been clear and direct in saying we're dealing with new technology and we're dealing with a new threat We need to go fast in determining competitive advantage of autonomy And how to ultimately operationalize autonomy for the warfighter We are trying to figure out how to integrate artificially trained neural networks, train in a simulation. How do you integrate those into the real world?

1:15:04 In this case, integrate them into controlling an airplane. We need to recognize that AI is here it's here to stay It's a powerful tool collaborative combat aircraft and that type of autonomy is revolutionary And will be the future battlespace Yeah! Battlespace! Future battlespace! Autonomous planes in the future battle space So we have boots on the ground in the... ah yes Yeah, no. We have boots on the ground. You got a note? Yeah we have the boots on the ground at Air Force Research Laboratory and I'm not going to end and we got a lot more than we can discuss in these systems directorate

1:15:46 dealing specifically with autonomy and air systems. Yes, the military wants self-flying planes but it's going to take many many years because every single one of these... this is our government this is a military industrial complex they want this but oh we can't make that happen fast because every single one of the systems are made of different solutions that have been developed by different directorates reads different contractors and are at different stages of completion. There's no agreed upon spec for interface or communication between any of the systems, so it is a boondoggle but they created a cool video to get everybody all excited about it. It's a boondoggle! It's a super boondoggle because you don't have people with technical enough skills at the top

CHAPTER 20 / 41 Discussion

Luddite History, Algorithm Etymology

A discussion on the history of the Luddite movement traces the term back to 19th-century textile workers who destroyed automated looms to protect their livelihoods. The segment also explores the etymology of "algorithm," noting its origin from a Persian mathematician, while observing that the Greek word "algos" translates to pain and suffering.

luddites· algorithms· etymology· textile industry· mathematics

1:16:39 that can say, hey no you got to do it this way. No we can't have these...no just develop. Just know. The classic would be great but the classic trick would be IBM's technique of doing two, no more than two parallel developments and then picking one they would do this that's how the PC came about please oh is that that's how the pc came about yeah You know, you called me a Luddite the other day on the show. Oh has that finally gotten to you? Remember well I heard it but then and I was like Chad GPT what is a Luddite What is a luddite and this stems from The textile area era the jacquard weave the lace frames, I guess yeah, right where

1:17:34 So they're bringing in the automated looms. Is that what you'd call them? Jet card I believe this sort of and product, you know kids arms were getting chopped off and stuff who are working in there And it was you know So they say but then they went in and they and they busted up all of the machines They broke through a wrench in the works. Yeah Oh is that where that comes from a wrench in the works? I believe so the Luddites Yeah, these people are called I don't know where the word Luddite stems from some guy named John Lud or something. I'm not sure But I don't remember if they didn't look it up but yeah this is there the people that general push back their people that put The people have pushed back against What was going on and then? I think they were justified you should have taken in as a compliment I do now now that I've seen by the way while I was looking around

1:18:32 Do you know where the word algorithm comes from? No, I don't to say that. No no it is a word that was shaped after a Persian mathematician who first came up with the idea of these rules-based mathematics and his name sounds like algorithms like something like that but then when i'm messing around I look up algos The Greek word for algos literally pain and suffering. I thought that was... That is interesting! Kind of poetic, you know? Yeah that's kind of our show in a nutshell. Pain and suffering yeah. Anyway we're talking about pain and suffering yes nice transition. I have some clips on the RFK jr up oh I have an email

CHAPTER 21 / 41 Discussion

RFK Jr. Campaign Momentum, Independent Run Speculation

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. opened a new campaign headquarters in Elizabeth, New Jersey, where he criticized the "corporate capture" of regulatory agencies like the FDA and CDC. Kennedy proposed a new economic plan featuring 3% mortgage rates financed by tax-free treasury bills. Internal communications from "People for Kennedy" suggest the campaign is actively preparing for an independent presidential run.

rfk jr· elizabeth new jersey· independent candidate· housing boom· ntd news

1:19:29 Oh, well I wonder if the clip should be... Well i think the clips would go and then the email. Okay yeah sure let's do this It's a three-parter it's actually two parter plus a kicker The kicker is only seven seconds but there are two parters But he has opened up headquarters and he's taking it very seriously I think we're at the beginning of stage two. RFK Jr.'s campaign appears to be gaining momentum, his team just opened up a new headquarters in New Jersey there the presidential candidate explained how he'll help Americans and quote drain the swamp NDD's Jason Perry attended the grand opening

1:20:07 I can't believe that President Trump wanted to drain this off, but he just didn't know how. I know how to do it." Robert F Kennedy Jr., Democratic presidential candidate spoke at his newly opened campaign office in Elizabeth New Jersey and said this about Trump... Pfizer's partner, business partner to run the FDA. And so McGoatley went in there and did an $88 billion favor for Pfizer and left the joint Pfizer board. Then RFK Jr explained how he knows how to quote drain the swamp. I've brought over 500 lawsuits against these companies. I've sued all of these agencies.

1:20:48 USDA, EPA, NIA, CDC, FDA, all of them. And when you sue them, you get a PhD in how to unravel corporate capture. Corporate capture is a term which refers to regulatory agencies being dominated or influenced by the industries they are supposed to regulate and he explained how the relationship between the US military and the defense industry also known as the military-industrial complex has affected average Americans Wow, what station called it the military-industrial complex? What station was that? NTD. Oh okay no wonder. No American station would do that. No you can't anymore so he's got the... I thought it was interesting to what he's doing is stealing Trump's thunder for drain the swamp saying

1:21:46 you know, it's a great idea but Trump couldn't do it. I can." Which in other words he's got no, Trump is no good and then he has some comment about Gottlieb how Trump got suckered the way that it's implied that he got suckered into putting this guy as the head of CDC or whatever it was at time FDA, I can't remember. Yeah FDA and then so it's interesting complimenting Trump for the ideas but he can't, he's not no good at implementation whereas I am because that's what i've been doing as a lawyer. A very interesting trick and it is well thought out which to me fits right in with the idea Trump wins Kennedy becomes Attorney General That...I have no evidence that you're wrong

1:22:45 at all, so I can't argue against you. Part two." He also highlighted the war in Ukraine noting that by March of this year the US had approved 113 billion dollars in aid to Ukraine. We cut 30 million people, 15 million people from Medicare and we cut 30 million Americans food stamps from $283 a month to $23 a month. Try feeding yourself $23 a month. Kennedy also pointed out in that same month the government provided a 300 billion dollar bailout to banks and then he explained what he's going to do for Americans given that over the past two years housing prices have gone up significantly and mortgage interest rates have more than doubled from about 3% to 7%. As I've said before,

1:23:42 We kicked off the great prosperity in this country that 50 years, you know economists and social scientists where we became the richest country on earth. We started it with a housing boom. And as soon as I get into office, I'm going to launch another housing boom. I'm gonna issue a new class of mortgages for 3%. I'm gonna finance that by selling treasury bills at three percent that are tax-free so the market will pay more

1:24:19 Kennedy just laid out his economic plan here in his newly opened New Jersey campaign headquarters and he stayed after his speech to take selfies with everyone. I don't like this plan, it doesn't sound good! What doesn't sound good about it? He says he's gonna sell bonds at 3% which is kind of below every other bond. Well that's tax-free though thats a big difference And he's going to create loans At a 3% rate Which it just was a few years ago by itself. Yeah, right and why don't we stop? Why don't put a cap on the debt? Price controls. Oh, price controls yes. Do you think it's a good idea I'm asking? I don't know if it's a good idea or not. I haven't looked really tried to figure out whether is that like the market doing its own thing personally yeah but the op is complete because now we know NTDs but he talked about regulatory

1:25:25 Capture? This is a little sub clip here, a little clip at the end. Tell me NTD's not in on the op! If you want to watch Kennedy's full speech you can visit ntd dot com Jason Perry NTD News New Jersey This is NTD So they're the front up- the front news organization for the OP Hmm... so we'll keep an eye on that Someone's gotta do it Somehow I wound up On the email list for all the Zoom calls of Kennedy, what is it? It's called People For Kennedy. So this is his ground game. I wonder how you got on that list! I didn't get on it. And they're very... yeah exactly. Somebody put you on it

1:26:17 And here's the latest. To the fearless believers, passionate change makers and motivated citizens who make up People for Kennedy while we had placed our outreach on a bit of hold as we were waiting for our candidate and campaign to make some critical decisions it looks like planning behind-the-scenes for an independent run was the exact right call! Yes! Our People For Kennedy leadership team has been busy behind the scenes preparing for the independent run...and there is a call today 4 p.m.. Pacific now do we know that this is official or is this off the books? Is this Kennedy has anything to do with this Do we know we don't know but there's a lot of people who apparently are on these calls and And you know I III think it's still a flare for the DNC saying hey, you know I'm pretty serious about this independent Independent party if you don't let me in if you don't don't play fair with me

1:27:15 Is this maybe a last ditch, you know like a last call? Like come on. I don't think it's the last call but definitely shot across the bow. Well they're saying that is coming a week earlier than they thought it would be people for people for Kennedy. PeopleforKennedy.com number four let me see peoplenumber4kennedy.com It must be just a bunch of groupies I'm not sure. Or it could be the Republicans, who knows? Speaking of... So while I don't know what's happening, while Kennedy is doing that

CHAPTER 22 / 41 Discussion

Donald Trump California GOP Speech, Retail Theft

Donald Trump addressed the California GOP convention, advocating for a hardline stance against retail theft and looting. He suggested that shoplifters should expect to be shot upon leaving stores to deter the ongoing crime wave in cities like San Francisco and Philadelphia. Trump also mocked the water conservation policies in Beverly Hills, claiming they negatively impact the hygiene of wealthy residents.

donald trump· california gop· retail theft· looting· beverly hills

1:28:02 Saying I'm gonna take down, I'm gonna sue the CDC and FDA and EPA And FBI. And I am going to restructure the CIA Here's Trump in California at the GOP convention. And we will immediately stop all of the pillaging and theft Very simply if you rob a store You can fully expect To be shot as your leaving that store. I mean, what is this? Why is he doing this? He's a genius. Do you think that's genius? He got a lot of attention from everybody and their sister and got a big round of applause at the convention And it's funny

1:28:52 Unless you're the one stealing. Well, don't steal! You won't get shot Yeah but that's... when they when the people with the umbrellas during George Floyd gambit When they broke the windows on all the stores That's what kicked it off I mean I've talked to Mo about this He says this is not going to subside It's only going to get worse Only going to get worse Uh, you know, did you see Philadelphia earlier in the week? Yeah. I mean that was a mess! Yeah. The looting and it was for another person shot

1:29:34 And then, you know this instigators. There's all kinds of stuff going on This was something from Trump speech I thought was quite funny They're taking a shower they're told to hurry up You are only allowed a small amount of water when they take a shower That is why rich people from Beverly Hills generally speaking don't smell so good Typically Have you noticed? They aren't great Their hygiene isn't good but it is forced to be that way So when you meet somebody with a beautiful house in Beverly Hills, you know that person is sort of disgusting under there. See that I like! That's good. He's developing...that's a rewrite of his old material about the not enough water comes out and you can't wet your hair But what's interesting is it actually falls in line into a weird way with the World Economic Forum The new messaging

CHAPTER 23 / 41 Discussion

Mariana Mazzucato, Climate Change Messaging

Agenda contributor Mariana Mazzucato discussed the need for new messaging regarding climate change at a recent global forum. She suggested that because climate change is abstract to many, focusing on water as a "global commons" might better engage citizens. Mazzucato compared the challenge to the global vaccination effort, noting that both require a shift from individual interest to the common good.

mariana mazzucato· world economic forum· climate change· water crisis· vaccination

1:30:33 for climate change. And there's this woman, what is her name? She is... let me see if I have her here. She is Mariana Mazzucato and she is a climate... she's an agenda contributor. There you go! So she's in marketing and she's complaining about how they suck at getting everybody in the world vaccinated And we have to have different messaging for climate change now. That's also of course true with COVID, right? We are all only as healthy as our neighbor is on our street and our city and in our region and in our nation and globally Did we solve that like did we actually manage to vaccinate everyone in the world no so highlighting water as a global commons and what it means to work together and see at both

1:31:30 of that kind of global commons perspective, but also the self-interest perspective because it does have that parallel. It's not only important but its also important because we haven't managed to solve those problems which had similar attributes and water is something people understand. Climate change is a bit abstract some people understand it really well some understand it a bit some just don't understand it. Water Every kid knows how important it is to have water when you're playing football and you're thirsty. You need water. So there's also something about really getting citizen engagement around this and really, in some ways experimenting with this notion of the common good can we actually deliver this time in ways that we have failed miserably other times? And hopefully we won't keep failing on the other things but anyway. Yeah yeah yeah you know this kind of woman. Oh oh the worst yes

1:32:17 Well, we failed miserably. We actually were able to vaccinate every person on the wall! Wow so climate change... Oh people don't care about it just say you're not gonna have any water That's what she's saying Yeah yeah she's a creep They should hire the Curry Dvorak consulting group we know how to do it We could definitely do better than her So I've got a kind of a tribute series eclipse that might be worth playing now. A tribute? Oh, okay yeah all right i like tributes this is a tribute to the moms for liberty really how are they doing you know when i'm mayor of Fredericksburg and let them run the city that's my plan that's my platform

CHAPTER 24 / 41 Discussion

Moms for Liberty, SPLC Extremist Designation

The Heritage Foundation is suing the FBI and DOJ on behalf of Moms for Liberty to uncover communications with the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC). Co-founder Tiffany Justice claims the SPLC's "extremist" designation has led to doxxing and threats against parents. The group continues to focus on school board elections, having endorsed over 500 candidates in the 2022 cycle.

moms for liberty· tiffany justice· splc· fbi· heritage foundation

1:33:04 That's right, which we've talked about off mic. Yeah yeah there's calls for me to run for mayor. There are actual calls. I'm calling for it! Let's just do a podcast with you every morning and say hey how is it going in Fredericksburg? Well let me tell ya John... Hello caller! Yeah, my trash didn't get picked up. Oh okay. Take care... My trash... Where's my bin? That is kind of the drawback to the job. Where's my bin? They stole my bin

1:33:41 Alright, Moms for Liberty. I like Moms for Liberty... So they're being sued? Oh no! What's happening?! And so they had the head of the Moms For Liberty on, and I believe this was NTD Is this the national chapter? Because they have chapters it's all individual chapters Yeah but it says the National And I think this is worth, there's a three part clip and it's worth listening to what she has to say. Is there a connection between the Justice Department targeting of parental advocacy group and the Southern Poverty Law Center designating one prominent group as extremist? We speak with co-founder of Moms for Liberty about many challenges facing parents who want stronger voice in their children education Tiffany Justus thank you so much for joining us Thank you for having me today really appreciate it Tiffany

1:34:26 To begin, the Heritage Foundation is suing the FBI and DOJ on your behalf. Moms for Liberty what are they trying to find out here? Yeah we're trying to find out is the SPLC talking about moms for liberty about me and co-founder Tina Deskovic with Biden administration it seems like the answer is yes apparently they have something to hide because they haven't replied any of their requests for information And why do you suspect that the FBI, DOJ or the Biden administration is acting on the SPLC's behalf? When COVID hit parents had a lot of questions. Their schools were shut down and they were speaking out there very concerned about what they were seeing taught to their children and they asked a lot of questions. I think what we saw was a reaction by the teachers union, The National School Board Association to go to the DOJ right into instigate some action on the Biden administration

1:35:18 them. The truth is only three in ten children in America are reading on grade level and I have to be honest, I think it's something that the education industrial complex really wants to hide." Wow there was a lot in there so who suing who? There's well the Moms for Liberty are suing for information regarding the fact that they were put on a terrorist watch list And they believe it's because of the Southern Poverty Law Center who doesn't like them. Oh, well the Southern Poverty Law Center are douchebags! Of course that's what happens... We know that but not everybody knows that and not everybody knows that Because they have such a cool name, Southern Poverty Law Center, The Good People I mean that's like one hour cleaner

1:36:06 Exactly. By the way, I like the fact that this woman's name is Tiffany Justice. It's a good name. You think it's a great name? Look, it's a good DJ name. Hey everybody! Tiffany Justice in the morning here. Here's The Weather Yeah, it's a good morning zoo name. It's good WWE name and now Tiffany Justice. And so what has been the fallout on your group especially after the SPLC added your group to this hate an extremism report? Yeah, they put a target on the backs of American moms and dads. And there are people citing the SPLC designation and trying to use it to hurt us, to cancel us, to dox us, to shut us down, to threaten us, to justify violence in many times being suggested. It's concerning to us. We know what the SPLC designation has done with other groups in the past. There is no doubt that it was meant to try to damage our reputation and our ability to be Americans and have our voice heard which is our constitutional right

1:37:07 And, Tiffany I want to cite something you wrote. So you said that exercising our free speech rights to attend public school board meetings that decide how our public schools operate is not extremism it is American so how does the criticism that you all have received kind of reflect society's changing view on parents goals in their children's education? The idea that parents getting involved in their children's education is somehow anti-government or extremist is just ridiculous. American parents want to have their voice heard at that very local level, and we endorsed it over 500 school board races in 2022 and over 275 candidates were elected to school board office. And 76% of those Tiffany were first time candidates so what you see as a whole new group of people getting involved in American politics and I think it's making the people empower very very scared

1:37:59 This is exactly what they're doing because you know it is the moms for Liberty people who are like yeah, he should be mayor come on Come on. Why you gonna do it? Yeah there were their political activists But I think this is not a good idea yes You want your message to not be both they're doxxing us That's what's gonna happen you need to go into you need to carry firearms. You know you that they need to get more radical I think The moms for Liberty with guns oh hello Yeah. It's just a thought, it's just the thought.

1:38:34 And as we head into this 2024 election season, education has become a huge issue for all sides. What do you see as the solution here? More parents getting involved more community conversations happening. We just had a town hall in Montgomery County Maryland. We had Jewish parents Christian parents Mormon parents Muslim parents coming together to talk about how we move forward to protect our kids that Unifying parents around parental rights is what's going to save this country. At Moms for Liberty, we believe that and we're gonna keep bringing parents together across the country. That's interesting! Now of course she mentions all these different religious groups but they're all parents... This is happening worldwide there is a trend and this is a clip that I got last week. This is Belgium

CHAPTER 25 / 41 Discussion

Belgium School Protests, EVRAS Sex Education

Protests have erupted in Belgium over the implementation of EVRAS, a new mandatory sex education program in schools. A coalition of Muslim, Catholic, and "conspiracy theorist" parents has demonstrated against the curriculum, which they claim promotes gender transition to young children. Several schools were reportedly set on fire as tensions over the workshops escalated across the country.

belgium· evras· sex education· school protests· gender identity

1:39:23 Belgium, of all places. Listen to what's going on there and see if you can find the common theme! Since the start of the school year these five letters have ignited tensions in Belgium. EVRAS, the French acronym meaning Education in Relational Emotional and Sexual Life is an educational workshop proposed to be given in schools that has provoked the anger of these demonstrators Muslims, fundamentalist Catholics and conspiracy theorists have joined together to demand the suppression of these workshops. They teach our children if you're a boy but believe in your head that you're a girl, you can become a girl. Concerns are so strong that several schools have been set on fire in Belgium over the past weeks. This father disapproves of such vandalism but he says as a Muslim he doesn't want his children to receive this teaching.

1:40:14 It's a big problem to be forced to accept something that we cannot accept. It doesn't just concern the Arab and Muslim diaspora, in the last demonstration there were also many Europeans." The tools used in schools come from family planning programs their director has agreed to show us the equipment used Here I have a booklet that allows you to talk about the issue of periods. It's a way for her to counter the misinformation about these workshops, especially on the question of gender There is a lot of confusion when we talk about gender there is already the question of gender stereotypes That's important to address when it comes to equality Now on transition issues obviously no one is going to encourage a child to transition Yeah right not yet

1:41:04 But so you hear the same thing, of course. Almost identical it sounds like a story from around Illinois or someplace this is like a worldwide phenomenon that is orchestrated Yes Oh yeah oh It's just like all globalist stuff I thought was interesting Muslims radical Catholics and conspiracy theorists What kind of religion is that? All the same throw them in there. They're identical! And then they're little, you know... In little old Belgium they lighten the schools on fire Yeah that's probably the way to do it Not if I'm mayor Talking about your gun-toting Moms for Liberty I think lighting a school on fire is probably... Not if I'm mayor not gonna be lighting no schools on fire No

CHAPTER 26 / 41 Discussion

COVID-19 Vaccine Insurance Glitches, Private Sector Transition

The transition of COVID-19 vaccine distribution from the federal government to the private sector has resulted in widespread insurance billing "glitches." While officials like Dr. Scott Gottlieb and Dr. Celine Gounder maintain that vaccines should remain free for the insured, many patients are facing denials at pharmacies. Authorities expect these administrative issues to be resolved by mid-October.

covid-19 vaccine· scott gottlieb· pfizer· insurance· celine gounder

1:42:01 Alright, I think we have to do this now. Boost back better, everybody! COVID is still with us and there's trouble in paradise. Trouble in paradise We've got a problem. I don't know if you heard but these free shots are not free And I shall go back to a couple weeks ago when we had Dr. Scott Gottlieb, former FDA administrator now on the board of Pfizer and what's the Illumina? Illuminati. He is on the board of the Illuminati! This is what he said a couple weeks ago. What's different as we go into fall and back to school is that the federal government emergency programs have largely stopped

1:42:56 So, people have to actually plan getting their vaccine. You can't get them for free everywhere. How is that going to impact what the season looks like ahead? Yeah so insurers are gonna cover these vaccines in the same way they cover flu vaccines for people who have insurance or people who are underinsured or uninsured The administration has a program where people are gonna be able get these for free at pharmacies That program should be up and running by the time these vaccines become available. And they'll also be free of charge at federally qualified community health centers, and also public health departments day one so they should be widely accessible. It doesn't mean there's not going to be gaps in coverage in people who face certain hardships but

1:43:32 broadly most people should be able to get these free of charge without a copay based on what I'm seeing right now from the insurance companies. So, free it should be free basically so they're doing a deal at the time they were doing a deal hey look we gotta have this free we gotta get this all jacked up we gotta get people uh free boosters Oh, Celine. Dr. Celine seems like you have a problem. All right so some people are having trouble with the updated COVID-19 vaccine being approved by their insurance what's going on there? So you've had to transition from the US government providing the COVID vaccine to now business as usual which means the private sector

1:44:09 And so there have been a number of glitches with insurance billing codes, shipping of vaccines which has led to a lot of problems. If you have private insurance whether it's private Medicare or Medicaid You should have your free vaccine No cost to you It is covered by insurance since September 11th But because of these glitches Glitches There have been some issues until early to mid-October just for these things to get ironed out. If you do get your vaccine now, uh...you may need to resubmit or appeal a denial but you should get it for free." The No Agenda Show always gets very suspicious when we hear the term glitch! A GLITCH! Shut up about the glitch!! I think something happened. I think there's something with the vaccines they can't ship them out They don't have enough They want people to wait Something is up Glitches are bullcrap

1:45:04 But their computer systems don't work now? Is that the glitch?" So they're blaming uh, the fact that they're not... so they're making some... in other words it's a phony story. You're as you're making the claim that there-there is no The vaccine might not be available, it might not be working. It might be something wrong with it there may be a million things wrong but they're blaming insurance or... Glitch? Glitch! They are creating a smoke screen Yes A glitch In terms of using the word glitch Yeah Very suspicious Eh, probably

Free COVID Test Kits, Expiration Date Extensions

The federal government has resumed offering free COVID-19 home test kits through covidtest.gov ahead of the holiday season. The FDA has officially extended the expiration dates for many existing test brands, though medical contributors struggle to define exactly how long the chemical reagents remain effective. Critics question the accuracy of results from tests used significantly past their original printed dates.

covidtest.gov· fda· expiration dates· cbs news· home testing

1:45:41 Yeah, there's no reason for this sort of thing. And then they're covering it up with the other free stuff which we know but these clips are still worth listening to. Getting later into the fall here and we might be looking at another COVID surge! Hey everybody hey yo we got football season coming up you know we got closed down baseball but yeah we're coming into the fall COVID seasons here. Later into the fall here we might be looking at another COVID surge in the not so distant future, not so distant future why is he puking me like this? The federal government is once again offering free home test kits to Americans and for more on this were joined by CBS News medical contributor Dr. Selene Gounder who's also editor of public health KFF. Thank you very much for being here So free covid tests once again why now

1:46:24 So as of yesterday, covidtest.gov is up and running again the government wants to make sure everybody every household has tests on hand ahead of the holidays because you have people of different generations who are coming together close together over the holidays so it's a risk for grandma grandpa we just want to make sure that people know if they have COVID it might be infectious to others. Don't kill Grandma! Okay, so now this is another problem which is and there's not a lot of answers coming out of the doctor. A lot of us have those tests stockpiled and some of them have expired. I have tons of them! Sometimes with food sometimes as medication even though it's expired you can still eat it or its effective So the FDA has extended expiration dates on the test There's actually information about this on the CBS mornings dot-com website You can look up your specific brand and see if yours is still valid

1:47:16 Now Horowitz bitched about this because he wanted to get some tests and he went through the website and on the website it said hey these tests probably have a An expiration date that's already shows they're expired, but no we've extended it And when asked, when pressed on it so what is the date? She can't really answer it. I heard you say that I know we can look it up but if we don't feel like looking it up Is there a certain time If its two weeks late That the expired test were A month late Two months late Do you happen to know Yeah I mean 2 weeks and a month later is not an issue But you really dont want to be using it

1:47:54 Just making it up. Yeah, two weeks for you know It's like milk you can still drink that a month late two months late do you to know? Yeah I mean two weeks a month later is not an issue But you really don't want to be using it way beyond the extended expiration date way beyond What does this me way beyond no extended little bag of chips? Thank You very much bigger appreciate it I mean A valid question, a journalistic question which you can't expect from CBS mornings would be well if they're expired what happens? Do they give you faulty results do they give you false positives false negatives these are the questions the American people deserve to have. Exactly that's exact question he'd ask but the fact that they're not tells me something... What happens when they expire do they not work at all or did they just

1:48:44 make everything, you know false answers or what? What specifically happens. By the way these are chemical tests it seems to me that the reagents used and everything in between is lifelong stuff that should go for years and years and years It's not a bunch as far as I know it's not a bunch of sketchy organic compounds that are gonna react to you know prematurely and and become useless or peroxides that are gonna blow up the test like they were good to begin with Well, there's that these tests are not real. They don't really know these are yeah, these are ya know I think you should repackage them as pregnancy

Russell Brand Ad Boycott, Rumble Platform Pressure

Major brands including Burger King, ASOS, and HelloFresh have pulled their advertising from Rumble following sexual assault allegations against Russell Brand. The boycott was spurred by reports from "The News Movement" showing ads appearing alongside Brand's content. While YouTube has suspended monetization for Brand's channel, Rumble has resisted calls from British officials to demonetize the creator.

russell brand· rumble· burger king· hellofresh· advertising

1:49:28 Now there's an idea. Gender reveal test, anything just... There you go! It doesn't matter you can become a girl later if you think feel like that depends on what your what do uh what you choose um update on the Russell Brand situation although it has quieted down a little bit But as predicted, they're going after Rumble. This is a dangerous rumble very dangerous and They're also in rumble also owns locals which oh it does yeah Which is grand grand green world glenn greenwald's outfit you know the one that he got stock for and moved from substack And here we have an outfit called the news movement

1:50:28 who seemed, they look like volunteers but their website looks a lot like the Global Coalition for Tech Justice. There's a lot of money going after big tech but really problematic platforms like Rumble and so they feign as a news organization and if you're a news organization and Russell Brand is on Rumble what do you do? You know how journalism works. What do you do? Who are you going to go interview, what are the questions you want to ask of Rumble? I don't know but you develop a hit piece. Yeah! We're in the midst of a crisis... Oops sorry. This is- I need to play this one first. Massive brands including Burger King, Asos London's Barbekin Center and HelloFresh have pulled advertising from Russell Brands' Rumble channel Three other companies removed their ads from Rumble altogether after the news movement found they were appearing alongside brand videos

1:51:20 Burger King has paused advertising on Brand's channel while broadcasters and police look at claims of rape and sexual assault against him. Brand has a huge audience on Rumble with over 1.4 million followers There's been concern about the increasing discussion of conspiracy theories on his videos The comedian's been accused of rape and sexual assault against four women He denies the claims TNM approached other brands including Ralph Lauren, eBay and Hilton Hotels whose ads all appeared on Brand's channel but None of them replied to requests for comment. YouTube suspended ads from the channel and their site for allegedly violating creative policies, and the BBC's removed some shows brand-made while working there. Burger King said the company had paused all advertising while investigations into the allegations are ongoing. Asos declined a comment but TNM understands the company removed their ads this week. Hello Fresh said thanks for pointing this out to us we have manually removed our ads from Rumble The Barbican said we've now asked our media agency

1:52:10 So they just went to all the advertisers and said, hey do you know your advertising next to this horrible conspiracy theorist so-called rapists? What's a brand gonna say? By the way have their charges been filed on his rapes I don't think so. No of course not You know that media are not allowed uh... to speak about this as a gag order And you can be sued by the British government if you interfere with their possible, maybe investigation because it's still kind of iffy what they're going to do anything. But they literally said you cannot report on this Russell Brand issue on this particular part about the rapes cause if you do then you may be seen as interfering in an investigation and you can be hauled into court by the government." Yeah!

Global Coalition for Tech Justice, 2024 Election Safety

The Global Coalition for Tech Justice, funded by organizations like the Ford Foundation and Open Society Institute, is warning of a "crisis" ahead of the 2024 global elections. The group claims that social media companies have dangerously reduced their "trust and safety" staff to cut costs. They are calling for increased investment in platform safety to prevent online disinformation from leading to real-world violence.

1:53:13 How does that work? They do that stuff all the time in the UK. That is... wow, Magna Carta be damned! No freedom of speech it's the model is a model of the future Yeah for sure and so here's this global coalition for tech justice and they're all up in arms We are in the midst of a crisis and every second counts 2024 is a make or break year for democracy and freedoms globally as over 2 billion people are due to vote in 65 elections across the world. But we worry, our social media companies ready for the election tsunami? Will they stop online disinformation hate and abuse spilling over into real-world violence

1:54:08 They happened in the past Do you remember this guy? The shaman guy he stormed the US Capitol with a mob of his own dead no And they're literally saying so they show the shaman guy that highlight him in the video and then say like he led the insurrection do you remember this guy he stormed the US Capitol with a mob of angry Donald Trump supporters in 2021 after Trump refused to concede defeat in the presidential race

1:54:44 Two years later, supporters of President Jair Bolsonaro in Brazil also attacked government buildings. In the lead up to the attacks social media was flooded with disinformation about the legitimacy of the vote and calls for violence This happened in stable democracies And before Silicon Valley giants sacked staff meant to keep their platforms safe To cut costs These are not isolated cases. Big tech companies have a track record of allowing abuses and undermining democracy, and 2024 will pose the biggest risk yet to people and elections with social media at its most powerful investment in platform safety should be proportionate to the risk of harm not market size

1:55:38 Companies must address this gross inequity. They invested billions to protect the US elections and neglected global majority countries where they pose a serious risk to rights and freedoms in 2024 The clock is ticking Will big tech protects people and elections? So, yeah. What the hell was that? So what they're claiming is that all... Give me the name of this operation again. Oh it's a surprise it all leads to sorrows. The global or the open institute Global Coalition for Tech Justice

1:56:23 Ford Foundation, Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation's Open Society Institute. They should all be ashamed of themselves for letting something like that get produced under their auspices! Yes yes Don't you think? Yeah I agree but what they're saying now is it was all the tech companies and they fired all of their trust in safety staff then it's all their fault No they didn't No, that's what they're saying. Literally they're saying oh no they want to cut costs! Well that's for sure... And in France they're taking a page out of our playbook from the Obama days because we know how this started just just to reiterate all of this started with bullying for at least two years We had reports about

France Anti-Bullying Measures, Social Media Control

The French government is introducing strict new anti-bullying measures, including potential prison time for the worst offenders and citizen training courses. The crackdown follows the suicide of a 15-year-old boy named Nicholas, which shocked the nation and prompted a visit from Brigitte Macron to the family. Critics argue these laws may be used to further regulate speech on social media platforms.

france· emmanuel macron· bullying· social networks· nicholas suicide

1:57:24 Oh, kids get bullied and they're getting bullied. There's bullying at school and bullying." And I know this because we kept saying how we grew up sticks-and-stones... We're not even from the same generation. Sticks and stones will break my bones but names will never hurt me you know? You got to stand up to the bullies but no what do we get? We got bullying laws which were inherently unconstitutional. Yeah anti free speech yeah We got local laws and now they're just ratcheting it up. And now, we gotta do this in France." The new measures will include citizen training courses for bullies. Serious cases could be referred directly to prosecutors and the worst bullies could end up in prison There'll be a new bullying hotline November 9th will become a national anti-bullying day The government is promising school children it means to protect them

1:58:25 From your classes to your bedrooms, sometimes 24 hours a day on social networks. For you bullying is everywhere and all of the time so the mobilisation must be universal everyone has a role to play with all my government we stand with you and will fight relentlessly against bullying School bullying hit the headlines earlier this month with the suicide of a 15-year old boy known as Nicholas. He attended this school near Paris and only moved there this term after being bullied at his previous school, The tragedy shocked France It was also revealed that local education authorities sent a threatening letter to Nicholas's parents after they complained about the bullying

1:59:10 President Emmanuel Macron's wife Brigitte, a former teacher visited the local town hall to talk to local officials and then spent time with Nicolas' family. Bullying in French schools is a growing problem, with the recent poll indicating 14% of children have suffered some form of harassment at school. Bullying! Harassment! I grew up with nothing... I mean, I had Tourette's, the wrong hair, the wrong shoes, stupid blue jeans... Add dumb. Oh my god add dumb? Where's Eve?! I was bullied- And by the way- Girls beat me up Until you told me that the add dumb moniker that you received in this Dutch schools. I never heard of that gag in my entire life. Oh, well, you don't know a lot of Adams. We had Adams in our schools but no one that little bit and never alluded me, I guess or eluded us. But what? I mean we just we need to people need to stop this how about suck it up

2:00:14 Well, here's the thing about that one kid who killed himself. He had to be somewhat must have been somewhat suicidal but he quit the school because he was being bullied there immediately goes to another school where he is immediately bullied Is there a bully underground network or something? Where you'd say hey Bill's coming over there and he's gonna he's been bullied over here so make sure your bully him So something's up with that story. Well, it's to control messaging is to control what Silicon Valley Messaging is doing we need to go back to RSS people bring That's the answer to everything. It is. Look podcasting is still free and available until no end there's no until We even have ways where you don't need a hosting company You can just throw in an IPFS it lives out there in the interplanetary file system

RSS vs. Algorithms, Google Podcasts Shutdown

Google is shutting down its dedicated Podcasts app and migrating users to YouTube Music, a move seen by some as an attempt to further "algoize" and control content delivery. The discussion emphasizes the importance of RSS and blogs as decentralized alternatives to social media platforms where organic reach has plummeted. Data suggests that only about 5% of followers on platforms like Twitter actually see a user's posts.

rss· google podcasts· youtube music· algorithms· social media reach

2:01:11 This has all been taken into account. There's no way, they can never take down podcasting but people need to go back to blogs! You know Google hates RSS so much What was the most popular RSS product? Google Reader They loved Google reader Everybody loved Google reader yeah It was like you know email for blogs and you could... Yeah it was great And then they shut it down what did they do? Google Plus Which died. Of course, because they're stupid and now they're closing down Google Podcasts Why? RSS What are they going to give you in return Oh! You can put it now in YouTube Music Yeah we'll ingest your RSS Uh-huh

2:02:03 I don't know why they have such a hard-on for RSS. Because they can't control it and they can't algoize it. They can't control a lot of stuff Maybe they're scared, how about that? Maybe they're scared or something that people actually will use and like And have control over How about that? They need to keep tricking people into staying... If you're on Instagram and the algos see that, remember pain and suffering. The algos see that you're about to close the app they shoot your five likes! Oh you got five likes? No let me go check it out real quick

2:02:41 How about if your kid's being bullied, how about no phones in the school? Get off the apps! Somebody was... I don't have the clip but it was one of the old clips we didn't play. It's somebody talking about Kennedy or somebody else saying well he's getting a lot of flack on social media but he doesn't care because he is not on the social media Exactly You know if you're not on the social media It's not gonna have any effect on you and people aren't even going to do it because well, you know Let's bully her where she doesn't she won't ever read it So what difference does that make I got other things to do with my time. There was a guy yesterday He was from Nashville and done a lot with With Nashville music companies and worked for Dave Ramsey And you know all these people knew knew a lot about social media and algorithms and he says if you have a hundred thousand followers

2:03:31 And you want to send out a message. Do you know what percentage will actually reach? Because the algos don't really send it to your followers, do you know what the percentage is? It's shocking. It's gotta be less than 10%. 4.93% Yeah that sounds right and I think I empirically figured this out myself by messaging, or seeing the effects of messaging on Twitter when I had 10 thousand followers in the early days and I have a hundred thousand followers now. And same thing with Mastodon, I get good responses to a suggestion or link

2:04:13 And I get almost nothing when i do it on Twitter now with a hundred thousand. Now there's no, they're not seeing it nobody's seeing anything So everybody is now moving including uh was specifically mentioned that MailChimp is going to be offering SMS text service so that you can then send the newsletter I guess with a link To people's phone Yeah, I don't have any...I didn't collect numbers I'm sorry? I don't have numbers to send it too No, no. I understand but i'm just saying that's where because email has been so suppressed us ridiculous we can bear this is what is RSS it's just email by subscription but now we have to go with the

Teen Phone Addiction, Notification Overload Study

A report from Common Sense Media reveals that the average teenager receives 237 phone notifications per day, with some receiving over 500. This constant "snap attack" leads to significant distractions during school hours and contributes to feelings of loneliness and anxiety. As a low-tech alternative, the hosts suggest introducing children to ham radio to foster real-world technical skills and global communication.

2:05:02 With the with the mailed shim system, but now people are using text messaging more and more Guess what Apple's gonna come in they're gonna have all kinds of filters and algo So your I message will stop anything from coming in that they deem problematic Yeah, yeah to I have two clips. Okay kind of on the topic. All right teens phones one who Teens are distracted by around 237 phone notifications per day. According to a new report from Common Sense Media, of the 200 teens who participated many got over 500 notifications. One-fourth of these notifications came during school hours The teens then looked at their phones for an average of 43 minutes some for as long as six hours The kids would check their phones over 100 times per day on average Some saying they struggled to put them down She may receive 150

2:05:55 snaps in a day, if not more. There's that constant snap attack." Psychotherapist Karl Nassar's 14-year old daughter is also barraged by phone notifications He says having a good relationship with our teens is a key way to deal with the issue. How do we have the conversations over and over again about okay you know it's dinner time let's put the phone aside and let's have our meal When is something really important and when isn't something right? Teens can also access age-inappropriate content on their phones. Almost half of the teen participants did so, accessing content like pornography, betting apps and violent games. A small number used social media to chat with strangers — a risky phenomenon that could lead to problematic interactions with adults. Yeah I actually heard it. I heard a statistic similar that people in general touch their phone

2:06:48 Over two and a half thousand times a day. Eee! That's definitely not me, mine is still in the drawer I haven't used my phone since December of last year. I know but you're also not interested in betting apps? No, who needs that aggravation? Don't bet on sports. All right part two. Teens are very lonely these days. What?! The lockdowns kept them away from their friends made their only communication for the most part online so their phone becomes their friend

2:07:24 And that is really sad. Psychiatrist Carol Lieberman says parents can take the phones away for periods of time and set time limits They should also introduce their kids to other activities like sports or dance class That will help them realize what they're missing out on It's always a process, right? There's no end to when we, you know, when she's got it and we leave her alone. Psychotherapist Karl Nassar says his 14-year old daughter has matured with her phone use She can distinguish between notifications that are important and ones that can wait But there are still times where she gets hooked And that's when the conversations begin anew Well there is a very simple solution to this It is very simple And it could be cool I mean Parents listen up Get your kid get all your kids friends

2:08:12 and give them all a $25 Bao Feng handheld ham radio. Let them all get a license yet? Yeah, exactly. They could be the early early version of the old fart who's on the on the ham all day hams one of the one of the frequencies all day working with a repeater. Yeah that's probably better yeah and you can do digital mode so you can you know you can send text and stuff and it'd be cool You know? You can relay messages, talk to kids around the world. Yeah! Around the world. And with that I'd like to thank you for your courage in the morning and to you, the man who put the C's in the corporate capture Ladies and gentlemen say hello my friend on the other one only Mr John C Devorah

You know you can take the BaoFeng idea for the ham radio but you could also set up a mastodon server for the kids at school keep your eye on what is going on as an admin you can check everything people can report you can take it into your own hands parents how about that for an idea John? Yeah! Thank you for your enthusiasm

2:11:56 Follow Adam at noagendersocial.com, Johnson Dvorak at noagendersocial.com We are Value for Value and one of the reasons for that is We didn't want to have any meetings with advertisers, but also we knew we would never be able to have any kind of conversation about any of these topics without being you know without the news movement where those guys called calling up our advertisers. Hey you hear what those guys said? Yeah well those guy say do you wanna advertise hey Burger King! Do you really wanna advertise with those guys?! Yeah, that's what they do. So instead we just said you know what? Why don't you just send us any value if you get any value from the program We got lots of people who were very thankful during the lockdowns I think we have presented multiple angles to different stories that help people feel much better most frequently heard Oh no agenda is valuable to me because i know i'm not the only crazy one there's more like me

Listener Talent, ATACMS Rocket Art

A producer working at Lockheed Martin provided a correction on the pronunciation of ATACMS rockets, noting they are called "I-TAC-ems" rather than "A-TAC-ems." This information inspired new digital art for the show. The segment also touches on various listener-submitted artworks and the "No Agenda" art generator, which tracks topics in real-time.

2:12:59 We have meetups that go along with that, we can meet more of these same people. And it turns out they're kind of like normal people with real jobs and real lives and real families. And we like to be a part of that. Now all I ask is you return value one way or the other at some point regularly or not whatever you can do time talent or treasure Boy, we have so many people who contribute time. We appreciate all the promotion of the show that you do. Oh we could use some new SEO people though. Remember that one guy came in and he SEO'd us and were still at top five pages in Google? They can never get rid of us now. Remember that guy? Yeah no. No yeah it was someone who did that. It was early early on. We used to have cool domain names Mitt Romney didn't we have mittromney dot com

2:13:50 We have a lot of great domain names. There used to be a page filled with them. Yeah, we still have it! The page is still there. GetmoList.com And of course we have BigMike2024.com just in case you never know... You never never know Another way people help us out is with talent. Boy, we have a lot of talented people! People do jingles they do clips they do end-of-show mixes also have information boots on the ground and we love having brand new art art that is created by professionals who get additional value from us, we critique them honestly. We do! You never get that you know you can be trying to try and get a gig, trying to hear some of my work and they'll just say nah or won't even call you. Won't even call you? Yeah they don't even bother. They don't even bother with that will at least tell you what happened and what went right or went wrong

2:14:49 So we want to thank Dame Kenny Benn, who came back and this one just jumped off the page. This was the ATACM rocket beautiful piece by the way I got a note about this the ATACMs where was it? Yeah what did you find out about the ATACMS so attack him is atacms that's an acronym for these types of rockets that we have sent to Ukraine to shoot at Russia And here is a note from a producer. I work at Lockheed, the simulation department for five years on the ATACMS program The way the media is pronouncing the acronym is pretty funny! I admit that I like it but that's never how we pronounce it It's A-Tacms... Eye Tacms There you go, AYEE, eye tacms

2:15:38 So it's an I-tac'em watch. It's not a-TAC'ems, its I-tac'ems Yeah that's no good! No, I-tac'ems is no good this has to be... A-tac'ems Attack em, attack em! I attacked him. The media just did that, they just did that to make it sound good. They jacked it up! They did a good job. Very good job. So Dame Kenny Ben thank you so much was a good piece Dame Kenny Ben we looked at a couple others um...I remember us uh...you know we had the NA noise ma- I guess when Phoebe got picked up you were hitting your noisemachines and people making art about that which is kind of weird because that would never show up in the actual finished product? No

2:16:17 We had a lot of the show. A lot of Taylor Swift related art hmm That's not gonna happen when she skits enough publicity with us helping Yes, people keep sending me notes that she's transsexual Oh Please yeah I'm just telling you and then I'm crazy for not seeing it but she's a guy Yeah And so is Megan Megyn Kelly And there's a couple more. Well, Megyn Kelly has masculine features but she is no guy! She's not a dude? It's weird though... and I said so what and then my point is like okay so this is some big hoax that I'm falling for AND? And what? There was never ever been answer on that. You can't see it. Yeah you can't see it. She's a guy and you can't see it. Uh-huh. I am telling ya

TikTok Deconstruction, Pronoun Discourse

A series of TikTok clips are deconstructed, including a viral video questioning Elon Musk's wealth distribution and a person expressing distress over being misgendered at a physical therapy office. The discussion transitions into a critique of modern speech patterns, such as "vocal fry," and the importance of clear consonants in effective communication.

tiktok· elon musk· pronouns· gender dysphoria· vocal coaching

2:46:18 Yeah, well since we have nothing else and all just have to do. Well thank you so much talk talk John's tick-tock clips he has some dynamite bonds were very excited about your tick-tock clips First of all, let's play this one. This is the classic Tick-tock genius discussing Musk and this is a person who I believe is dead serious If there's 10 billion people on earth and Elon Musk has 200 billion dollars Can't he just give each person 1 billion? You will still have 190 billion dollars left over Isn't that concerning

2:46:58 Wow, wow. Yeah that's... yes I think you're right! That person is dead serious and dead stupid Dead stupid. It's a good show name. Dead Stupid. Okay, so now I've got a TikToker this is a guy who does Who puts his image of black guy who puts his image on the screen and rolls his eyes while some? Tick-tock nutcases going on about something he's really good. I gotta start following him more but he comes up with a little bit at the end. So this is kind of a two-part, all in one clip where he pretty much elucidates I think the real problem with pronouns and the way he does it is...

2:47:45 I like it a lot, but let's listen to the pronoun woman who is really disturbed looking individual. Y'all I'm tired Seven in the morning at the physical therapy office misgendered by someone who I've told my pronouns too and I said just so you know My pronouns are they them and they went? Oh yeah, that's right Yeah That's right And then I had to explain too many times to my physical therapist that I didn't want to do an exercise where I had to crunch my face into my boobs because that gave me, gives me gender dysphoria. And I ended up getting upset

2:48:31 and started to softly cry, and then quietly beg to leave. And have the physical therapist just email me the exercises so I wouldn't have to actually be in this space to do them. And I could just do them at home. You know, I don't feel comfortable in most places in society but when it comes to being at the doctor's office It's important to feel cared for, respected. Have your humanity honored and I'm just...I'm tired! I'm real tired and I've had a rough morning. Somebody raised this nut somebody did you should be ashamed of yourself You're raising a feckless individual that cannot function in society as a functional human being it's your fault mama

2:49:23 Daddy, whoever raised this person. It's your fault just disadmitted it's your fault There's no way in the world you an adult and you getting butthurt And you crying softly in the doctor's office because somebody forget to call you something that's not even grammatically correct like the pronoun is not Grammatically is not English language You cannot be a singular person But yet you're calling yourself with plurality of persons you cannot be a they fool you just one person you can't not be a them you Just one person how? How are you mad at other people who refuse to defy the English language? How about you have the respect for humanity of others and accept that fact that some people may not want to call you something that is not even reasonable, and it's not even appropriate when it comes to the language we all agreed to speak. I think it works better when you can see the guy. Well, it's better if you can see her! Yeah well yeah...that's for sure You know what was interesting, at the conference there was a vocal coach

2:50:15 And this guy is he's really a vocal coach for singers, but some of the biggest names in country and gospel Nashville guy sure and He was trying to explain why it wasn't trying with succeeding very well at what you need to do if you really want your voice or what? You're saying to come across in a way that people not just hear it, but are drawn into it. And he does this with... He's the kind of guy that someone is going to go on stage and they've got 10 thousand people in the audience and they call him two hours before like I can't, you know my voice isn't the way I want it to be, I need you help me. And he said, and gave examples of this actually with Simon & Garfunkel and some other song It was the same song but sung in different ways

2:51:06 He says, if you prolong your consonants... Your what? Well the consonants. The consonants! And he gave examples it was amazing how when you prolong your consonance as I just did how people get drawn in and listen to you and you're much more enjoyable to listen to when your information will come across better It is the exact opposite of what these morons are doing Because they're extending their vowels and dropping their consonants like T's. I just thought that was fascinating. You're right! Vocal fry, blah-blah. Whereas it's the Ts and the Ss and the Ds and the Gs...Gs.

Chinese Panda Diplomacy, US Zoo Recalls

China is recalling its giant pandas from several American zoos, including the National Zoo in Washington D.C., as diplomatic tensions rise. All pandas in the world are technically licensed by the Chinese government, and any cubs born abroad also belong to China. This marks the end of a 50-year era of "panda diplomacy" in the United States.

pandas· china· smithsonian· washington dc· licensing

2:51:57 Anyway, free lesson everybody. I've got one more clip that i think is important to watch they have two very important news We have some sad news coming from American zoos it seems that Chinese pandas will leave America we're talking about some of the most popular attractions in Washington DC's zoos not to mention Atlanta Memphis San Diego as well I haven't personally seen seen them I would have loved to see them but it seems that given look at that who doesn't want to see pandas it just makes us happy but it seems given the ongoing tensions between Washington and Beijing they will no longer be available after more than 50 years of spending time here in the US

2:52:41 Can they recall the pandas? Are they allowed to do that? They were always licensed. The Jews never owned them Oh, I didn't know they were all of all pandas in the world are licensed by the Chinese But then there's a Eula I didn't know that. I didn't know the license and so they can retract the license at any time they can retrieve the pen. And if they have babies, the babies belong as part of this like a typical classic Eula to babies belonged to China too. Wow! So I was always thinking that one of these is to be creative and kind of slip a baby panda by everybody but they never managed to do it

Lahaina Fire Investigation, Hawaiian Electric Testimony

Hawaiian Electric President Shelee Kimura testified that while power lines caused an initial morning fire in Lahaina, the lines were de-energized when the more destructive afternoon fire began. However, independent reports suggest that hotel backup generators may have been back-feeding energy into the grid, keeping the downed lines live. The official investigation is expected to take up to 18 months.

2:53:23 And this one, I don't know if you have anything else but this is the last clip. This was a hearing which didn't get a lot of traction and it was about the Lahaina fire and you recall that our insider in the electricity industry had found out that even though the power had been shut off from the power company, that the hotels were still pumping their energy back into the grid through their generators. Do you remember that? Yeah, I remember it Well now here is the president of Hawaiian Electric Sheely Kimura and here's what she testified to On that day a fire at 630 AM What i will refer to as the morning fire appears have been caused by Hawaiian electric power lines That fell in high winds

2:54:19 The Maui County Fire Department promptly responded to this fire. They reported that by 9 a.m., it was contained. After monitoring it for several hours, the fire department determined the fire had been extinguished. They left the scene in the early afternoon At about 3 p.m., a time when all of Hawai'i Electric's power lines in West Maui had been de-energized for more than six hours, a second fire—the afternoon fire—began in the same area. The cause of that afternoon fire that spread to Lahaina has not been determined."

2:55:02 We are working tirelessly to figure out what happened and we are cooperating fully with federal and state investigators who have indicated it may take 12 to 18 months to conclude. How about when we know exactly what happened? The wires were down, they were energized because the hotels had their generators still hooked up or pumping energy back into the system So now they got up, I think there's some negotiating who is going to take the fall for it. Yeah that's why the 18 months doesn't take 18 months of course that kind of investigation It's hooey! It's hooey I tell you. It's hooey. It's hooey. Very sad that they can just come clean with people You know? That story dropped out didn't it
