About this episode

Donald Trump faces a historic guilty verdict on 34 counts in his Manhattan criminal trial, sparking immediate speculation regarding sentencing rituals and ankle bracelets. Judge Juan Merchan and the jury navigated controversial instructions that did not require unanimity on underlying crimes, a move legal experts like Alan Dershowitz suggest could lead to a significant appeal process. The Biden campaign responded by deploying Robert De Niro as a surrogate outside the courthouse to frame the former president as a threat to democracy.

International tensions escalate as North Korea launches over 260 trash-filled balloons into South Korea, prompting chemical warfare units to inspect the debris. In the Netherlands, former intelligence chief Dick Schoof is tapped as the new Prime Minister under a Geert Wilders coalition, while a fatal jet engine incident at Schiphol Airport disrupts Dutch transit. Meanwhile, the Pentagon warns of a Russia-North Korea alliance aimed at 2024 election interference. Domestically, Secretary Pete Buttigieg attributes severe airline turbulence to climate change as Boeing faces a 500% surge in safety whistleblower reports. Public health officials in Ontario were caught on a leaked Zoom call discussing enhanced human surveillance for bird flu, as the USDA prepares genetically modified chickens to replace culled herds in Iowa.

This episode marks 17 years of the Value for Value model, featuring a formal knighting ceremony for Sir Fist Rust and Baronetess Stephanie Francis. The hosts analyze the "sister gag" social maneuver and debate replacing the Good News segment with lifestyle tips from John C. Dvorak. A final report on Tater the dog, who was rescued from a tree after a cat chase, rounds out the human interest stories.

No Agenda Introduction, Leaky Gut Awareness and AI Rhymes

Adam Curry and John C. Dvorak open the program from Texas and Northern Silicon Valley, jokingly declaring it Leaky Gut Awareness Month. They critique a listener's poem generated by ChatGPT, dismissing AI-generated rhymes and limericks as mediocre and obvious. The hosts establish the "Crackpot and Buzzkill" dynamic while discussing the limitations of current artificial intelligence in creative writing.

00:00 They're poking the flight attendants. Adam Curry, John C. Devorah. This is no agenda. Erasing FOIA emails and broadcasting live from the heart of the Texas Hill Country here in FEMA Region Number 6. In the morning everybody, I'm Adam Curry. And from Northern Silicon Valley where we want to remind everybody it's Leaky Gut Awareness Month. I'm John C. Dvorak. It's Crackpot and Buzzkill! In the morning! Uh, is that the upcoming month or are we closing out Leaky Gut Awareness Month? I just like saying leaky gut. Everything these days is leaky gut. I mean if you listen to any of the alternative health people, oh no, you've got leaky gut. What is it? What is gut? It's somewhere between your ribs and your pelvis, I guess. That's where your gut is. By the way, Darren O'Neill

01:00 You know him as... Has leaky gut? So he, you know, I'm always excited... He might. I'm always excited about his, you know, he tweets when we start the show. Today, he tweeted it from chat GPT. Listen how dumb this is. In a realm where truth is rare, no agenda takes you there. Adam and John's keen insight makes the news both fun and bright. Ditch the spin, embrace the glee, no agenda is where you need to be. I mean, is this going to change the world, this thing?

01:39 What, mediocre rhymes? I'm reminded of we used to do these things on the DHM Plug Show of these Fed limericks. Oh yes, yeah, yeah. So, Andrew has... Andrew... starts with an A. Andrew has slipped in a couple of these done by AI. Yeah, they're bad. They suck. I mean, it's bad enough when he does them. You always, I hear it because I listen to the show. I hear you catch him. You're like, that's AI, isn't it? You did it again. You threw in another AI. Yeah. By the way. It's so obvious. It's so obvious because it's nothing anyone would do unless you're a fifth grader.

Social Etiquette, The Sister Gag and Mother-in-Law Relationships

A discussion regarding a classic social maneuver dubbed "the sister gag" explores the effectiveness of complimenting an older woman by asking if she is her daughter's sister. The conversation shifts to personal anecdotes about maintaining positive relationships with mothers-in-law. One host reflects on his successful relationship with his wife Mimi's mother, attributing it to a commitment to being supportive.

02:25 We of course had last Sunday, we had our climate change special. Seems like people enjoyed it. I think most people thought it was very well done. Did you have a chance to listen to the whole thing? Oh, of course. It was terrific. I love how you... that sounds so insincere. I don't know what it is, but there's something about it that doesn't sound sincere. It reminds me, I was thinking about this, about the thing, you caught me doing it once and it's one of these things I like to do, which is to be is to do with a woman you meet. I did this with my mother-in-law. When you first meet some moms, you say, you're not her sister? The sister gag. It's a classic and I don't think it works very well anymore. No, you know what? I figured it out. It works because the enormous amount of money

03:22 kind of gumption and chutzpah. And the fact that you'll go out of your way to do this is a very strange sort of compliment, which is you've said to the older woman, you've said I'm on your side, I'm gonna, this is me from now on out, I'm gonna be backing you up 100%. I I had the greatest relationship with a mother-in-law I can imagine when I with Mimi's mom. Well, that's cool. But you know what? Oh, hold on a second because we had something for that. For some reason people like to send these in. Another tip from John C. Dvorak, it was just the tip.

CHAPTER 03 / 57 Discussion

John C. Dvorak's Life Tips, Dana Brunetti and Good News Segment

Hollywood producer Dana Brunetti provides feedback on the show, suggesting that the "Good News" segment be replaced with lifestyle and wine tips from John C. Dvorak. The hosts discuss Brunetti's recent interactions with them, including a story about Dvorak driving a fire truck and a Cybertruck at Brunetti's ranch. They debate whether to pivot the show's closing segment toward practical advice and "Dvorak Tips."

04:13 I'm pretty sure that's AI. In the tip mode, I'll give you another one that you might want to try out. I've not tried this one, but I developed it. Okay, all right. So when a woman, usually you're in the early stages of dating, and they'll put some clothes on and say, does this make my butt look big? Oh, a dangerous question. You say, yeah, but I thought that's what you were going for. John C. DeVore with the tip of the day. What is it what did you do that people are sending me John Tip jingles? Nothing I know of. Well I'll tell you that Dana Brunetti has been corresponding with me. It's always fun when you get a Hollywood superstar. He's a big fan of yours. To send emails and he says I just want you to know the good news segment sucks.

05:12 Yeah, he hates the good news segment. And he would rather hear good deals from Costco, wine tips or other helpful tips. I think we may have to get rid of the good news segment and move it to John's tip of the day. You know, he mentioned this to me. I was up at the ranch. I got pictures. I got a picture of you in the Cybertruck looking like you had pooped your diaper full. It was the weirdest picture. Did you see this? Oh, he sent it to me. I haven't posted it because I'm not mean like that. No one's posting these things. But you looked a little constipated. I was. So, uh, the, uh, yeah, anyone who sits in a cyber truck, to me, is constipation. I don't know what it is. Did you drive it?

05:57 No, I drove his big giant fire truck. He posted a video of that on Instagram. Yeah, he actually produced it. I know, with music and everything. He says that you almost... So now I can say I've been in a Brunetti movie. That's your bit part. He says you almost crashed it. No, that's not true. I almost knocked his fence over. He says, almost crashed the fire truck. I also have video of him driving the fire truck and almost crashing through a fence. I'll see if I can send to you. And then he produced it. Then he turned it into a Dana Brunetti short. Yeah, right. So, yeah, he hates the

06:35 The good news is he's a grump, he's a grouchy guy. But I think, John, if we get a tip from a Hollywood producer, we should probably be listening. I agree. He's, yes, he has a very good sense of things. Yes, so perhaps we turn that into John's tip of the day. Well, my complaint about that, not to belabor it, is that it's not as easy as you think to have a million tips. No, I know. But you are John C. Dvorak, driver of fire truck and cyber truck. I mean, you can do it. You can do it, man. Have Mimi make them up.

07:14 Well, she does the good news already. I can already hear her heart breaking. Like, ah, I like doing the good news. She only kind of likes it. It's very controversial. What I like about it is that, wow, people listen all the way to the end. Can you believe it? Well, you know, if you did tips instead of good news, you would Definitely get them. I think it's more compelling because then you want to listen. What's the tip? Well, this is also your form. You can have tips to it. Then that'd be just me. OK, OK. But this is your this is your lifelong format. People always used to go to the back page before they read through the magazine to read what you had to say. So now people will go straight to the end of the podcast to hear what you have to say before they start the podcast. Let's hope not. I think I think it's a good idea.

Pentagon Warnings, Russia-North Korea Alliance and Election Interference

NBC News reports that the Biden administration is bracing for intensified military actions from Russia and North Korea ahead of the November 2024 election. Senior U.S. officials express concern over a growing alliance between the two nations, citing potential missile or nuclear tests. The Pentagon characterizes these possibilities as provocative military actions intended to influence the American political landscape.

08:07 I really do. Anyway, I was gonna say I'm transitioning into the show. Watch my smooth transition into the show. It's never too early to warn about foreign interference in your US elections. Now to the Pentagon, where senior US officials tell NBC News the Biden administration is increasingly concerned about the alliance between Russia and North Korea as the US braces for potentially intensifying military actions from the countries ahead of the November election. NBC's Pentagon correspondent, Courtney Kubi, joins us now from our DC bureau. So, Courtney, walk us through what your sources are telling you about the possibility of this threat. So, Ellison, officials are bracing for the possibility that North Korea could engage in more

08:55 provocative military. I mean that's a great word to use. We're bracing. Hold on to your desks everybody here at the Pentagon. Let's brace, brace, brace, brace. So Ellison, officials are bracing for the possibility that North Korea could engage in more provocative military action than the US and the world have seen in the last decade. This could be everything from more missile tests with demonstrating new advanced technologies to Even another nuclear test, it would be their seventh under this regime. They were right the the Pentagon was right brace brace brace for flying projectiles from North Korea North Korea sending a fleet of trash filled balloons into South Korea more than 260 balloons detected Striking fear at first, but most landing harmlessly It's only nine seconds Fonstein's like the debris here the incident in retaliation after South Korean activists and propaganda filled balloons

CHAPTER 05 / 57 Discussion

North Korea Trash Balloons, South Korea Propaganda and Low-Tech Warfare

North Korea launched over 260 balloons filled with garbage and manure into South Korean territory as retaliation for propaganda leaflets and K-pop media sent by activists. South Korean authorities dispatched chemical warfare specialists to inspect the debris, which primarily consisted of household waste. The incident highlights a low-tech psychological warfare escalation between the neighboring nations involving buoyant trash bags and helium.

09:53 into North Korea over the weekend. There you go. Okay, this is your kind of crappy report. Crappy is an operative word. I have a full report. Balloons are full of dog shit. I have a full report, but I just wanted to get it done quick and you couldn't wait to respond so you kind of ruined the whole flow. But I did. The point of this is that You know, for the first day of this, oh, they're sending out poop filled balloons, poop filled balloons, everybody, it's poop filled. Oh, they got, and that's all that it was. Not really mentioning that this was in response to South Korea.

10:39 He mentioned it very, he mentioned it in that report. Yeah, he mentioned it briefly, but here's Reuters, a very uninspired, but yet more accurate report. So in the middle of the night, a number of residents in South Korea got emergency alerts from local authorities, basically warning them of unidentified objects that were coming over from North Korea and telling them not to touch anything. This got a lot of people understandably quite concerned. And what it turned out to be is as many as 200 balloons and counting at this point that North Korea appears to have let loose to drift south over its border. In this case, they tied basically bags of garbage and in some cases, what appears to be manure or excrement in the bottom of the balloons and sent them over. South Korea's government even dispatched its explosive ordinance and chemical warfare specialists out to inspect

11:32 some of these balloons when they came across. And South Korean activists have regularly sent balloons the other way, right? But carrying different material. That's correct. South Korean activists, many of them former residents of North Korea who defected here to the South, regularly send balloons with kind of propaganda leaflets criticizing the government in North Korea or sometimes South Korean media that's banned in North Korea, recordings of K-pop artists, things like that. Sometimes they'll send Bibles or rice or flash drives with different types of media on it I mean if you're gonna send poop to us in the form of kpop we're gonna send you poop back That's what it seems like to me chemical warfare chemical warfare So this whole this bit was leading up to that. Let's say you dog punchline. Yeah, that was that was it Yeah, but the flow was ruined you blew ruined it early on it wasn't my fault that that punchline was weak. I

12:28 in your enthusiasm. All right. So, yes. This is hilarious to me that they're sending but the one thing that's missing from all the reports you'll note. Mm-hmm What was the size of the balloons and what was this the payload? How big was it? Was it just a bunch of you know, rubber balloons, you know filled with helium and a dog turd attached or was it well you there was a giant weather balloon the size of your house No, there were there were very like high school weather balloon size. There were lots of pictures and videos of them But they were not giant weather balloons, but they were not just regular, you know, like party town balloons filled with helium. They were like, you know, like high school weather balloons. You know what I used to like to do? I'm dying to hear. If you get a bottle of helium, you know, you use it for various things. Yes, yes.

13:24 Garbage bags are perfect. Garbage bags which don't expand but they fill up very easily and they become buoyant quite nicely and then you tie off the bottom, talking about the big one, the big 33. Gallon ones the ones you get at Costco. Yes, and you just launch them and you can see the things and they Because they don't go up that fast But you can see the big garbage bag flying in the air after you you can it off You can track it. Well, you know, you can try a little a PRS transmitter. You probably could yeah people next well No, that's what hams do that all the time. I

Low-Tech Solutions, Drone Warfare and The Azusa Slingshot Shooter

The effectiveness of low-tech solutions against high-tech military hardware is examined through the lens of drone warfare and a local criminal case. In Azusa, California, 81-year-old Prince King was identified as a "serial slingshot shooter" who used ball bearings to break windows for a decade before his recent death. The discussion posits that simple tools like nets and slingshots remain viable counters to advanced surveillance and police drones.

drone warfare· azusa· prince king· slingshot· low-tech weaponry· ball bearings

14:04 But what I think is missing from this report, which follows on with the drone warfare we're seeing everywhere, and drone warfare being propagated upon our population in our cities, New York, and I think there was another, wasn't there another city that just announced it? Yes, Denver. Yeah, I was like, hey, we're just gonna send, if you call 911, we'll send out a drone. What is interesting, you look at, You look at Russia, you look at Ukraine, the low-tech solutions are really what is astounding. I mean, so North Korea could have sent these balloons over with actual chemical agents and they would have just gotten right through and landed and killed a bunch of people.

14:55 This is what I like. It's the low-tech solutions that, you know, well, oh, Atacoms and Patriots and Iron Dome and... No, you just need a couple of balloons, a couple of Costco trash bags. You could send it over with some... No, man, you name your poison. And we were just talking on the last show, in fact, this may be where the John C. Dvorak tip of the week came from, about another very low-tech solution. Take a walk down the 900 block of Enid Avenue in Azusa and you won't have to look very hard for evidence of the crimes. Some windows shattered, others bearing holes the size of a BB. How many would you say are in here? One neighbor who didn't want to be identified showed us two bags of BBs he's collected from his yard over the years.

15:40 The person behind the broken windows, unknown for the past 10 years until this week. Azusa police say it was a man who lives on the very same block in this house. Prince King. Investigators call him a serial slingshot shooter. His age, 81. We were just talking about this. And of course, everyone is emailing me. Hey, wait a minute. It's an old dude in California with a slingshot. Where's John? The funny thing is that The guy was using ball bearings. Yeah, not BBs. Not BBs. BB is a little copper ball that's very small and a ball bearing is usually somewhat bigger. That was our tip. They're not the same. No, but that was our tip.

16:27 Our tip was to use the ball bearings. But now, but so I get this report and then breaking, breaking, breaking. This news just coming into the ABC 7 newsroom. We have learned the 81 year old man who terrorized neighbors with a slingshot has died. Prince King died in a private residence yesterday. The circumstances surrounding that death are not known. King was released from jail earlier this week after pleading not guilty to several counts of vandalism. He was accused of nearly hitting people with a slingshot and breaking windows and windshields near his Azusa home for nearly a decade. And then he died suddenly. Well, mysteriously. Don't get arrested and thrown in the slammer for a few days if you're in your 80s. By the way, I hear that a low-tech solution to high-tech drones is nets. Nets are the way to go.

17:16 One of those net guns that you shoot a net out and it... If you have a net gun, yeah, I think that would work. Are those available freely on the market? I've never seen one to be honest, but I've only heard about them. But, and then the drones can dodge them, you know, they can zoom left and right. Maybe. I think the slingshot and a BB would be harder to catch. I agree. I just think it's phenomenal how all this high-tech weaponry and policing and military stuff is just... useless because we've got low-tech solutions. Well it's not necessarily useless if you have a thousand of them which is really the way to go and that's what's going to end up happening. Of the drones you mean? Yeah, there'll be a thousand drones all with holding handguns coming at you. You won't have much of a chance.

18:05 Stand still, sir. Have you seen any of the have you been able to witness any of the fireworks displays that are drone shows? I've only seen videos, but this. Oh, my God. They had one here some time ago. It's phenomenal. It was a small one. But the ones you see, the video ones, they have like hundreds of these things and they I don't even know how they get this all computerized. But it's just astonishing. But if you can do that as a fireworks display, it's not really fireworks, but you can do it. Well, but those are so small, I don't think they can hold a handgun. But it wouldn't make any difference if they were bigger. They could still control them the same way. Oh yeah, yeah. I think darts is the way to go for them. Darts. Darts. Darts. I'm gonna throw a dart at you if you don't go away. There was a... Man, the M5M is so lame.

Pope Francis, Homophobic Slur Apology and Italian Translation

Pope Francis issued a formal apology after reportedly using a derogatory Italian slur regarding gay men during a private meeting with bishops. While mainstream media translated the term as "gayness," linguistic analysis suggests the word "frocciaggine" carries a much harsher connotation. The Vatican claimed the Pope, whose native language is Spanish, did not intend to offend and was reaffirming the ban on gay men in seminaries.

pope francis· vatican· homophobic slur· italian bishops· frocciaggine· catholic church

18:57 So lame. They lie. It was a surprise. What? Yeah, here's the short version from CBS, then I have to play the France 24 version. Tonight, a rare apology from the Vatican. Pope Francis saying he's sorry for reportedly using a slur directed at gay men. Italian newspapers say the 87-year-old pope made the disparaging remark last week during a private meeting with Italian bishops. A Vatican spokesman said today that Pope didn't mean to use the homophobic term and apologizes to all who were offended. So, Nora barely gives us any of the details. France 24 went a little bit deeper, but lied multiple times. Well, essentially, I mean, he's apologized, as you put it, for saying and using this term, this homophobic slur.

19:46 rude Italian slang that basically translates to the word gayness in essence and it shocked many and he said it last week at a meeting a closed-door meeting with Italian bishops and he was using the term as he was reaffirming the Vatican stance about not allowing gay men to enter seminaries or to be past of the priesthood and it was first leaked on an Italian gossip site and then subsequently the story also appeared in Italian media quoting unnamed Italian bishops. So clearly the language used really shocked many, particularly coming from a man like Pope Francis who very early on in his papacy

20:31 if you remember, use that expression, who am I to judge when talking about gay people? And also he has said, also more recently, that priests can bless same-sex couples in particular circumstances. So really a shock to many that he actually said this. And then finally, we saw a statement by the Vatican spokesperson today after this news was leaked late yesterday evening. Today, the Vatican spokesperson saying that the Pope never meant to offend or use homophobic language and apologizes to those who felt offended or hurt by the use of the word that was reported by others.

21:14 So luckily we have my sister living in Italy, she's been for the last 25 years, and so I send her that report and I will read to you her response. Gayness my ass! Frocciaggine would translate to faggotness. Basically within a closed discussion around having homosexuals as priests, he said something like, we already have too much faggotness. And then he gave, and then as a part of the apology... I think the proper translation would be faggotry. Well I'm just reading what she said. Yeah, I know, I understand. And so, and the actual apology came in the form of the

21:54 that it is not his native language. So he didn't really know what he was saying. Sure. I don't know. I don't know. I speak Spanish. I apologize for not speaking the language. It's great. It's fantastic. I just love it. Just love it. Just love it. Just love it. Very funny. Very funny. So ma'am, there seems to be a lot going on. See, you can play, you know, this is classic news media. You could have played this a number of different ways if you were taking that story. I mean, if you're the editor of the, you know, sitting in the editorial room. I think we should play it this way. The Pope says there's too many gays in the priesthood already. Yeah, well, that's what he said. That's what he said, but that's not the way they played it. No, geez, surprise.

CHAPTER 08 / 57 Discussion

Bird Flu Outbreak, Iowa Chicken Culling and Industry Insurance

Officials ordered the culling of over 4 million chickens in Iowa following the detection of highly infectious bird flu. Dr. Robert Malone notes that while the risk to public health remains low, the policy is designed to protect the poultry industry from interstate spread. The mass extermination of birds has contributed to rising egg prices, though farmers are often compensated through government payouts and insurance.

bird flu· h5n1· iowa· chicken industry· robert malone· gmo chickens

22:46 Surprise, surprise, surprise. It is a surprise because I think the other way of playing the story would get more attention and it's more anti-Catholic which they want to do. Oh yeah, yeah. But well, I don't know what they're afraid. They're afraid of something. Hmm. I wonder if they're afraid of the wrath of God? Well, yeah. Possible. Possible. Seems unlikely. Oh, well, yeah. I think I need to do a little bird flu sequence because they are ramping it up. They just let's just say they're not giving up at all. But I loved what Dr. Sutton, who is America's second favorite doctor after Dr. Jin, said on ABC. Who's this guy? I think it's a lady. I don't know who it is, but I'm just saying I have an intro clipped up by help. OK, let's hear the war on chickens. Well, hold on a second. Why? I need my jingle.

23:47 War on chickens. Where's our jingle? We have a jingle. Oh, yeah, I got I got the one jingle Over four million chickens must be killed officials determine after detecting signs of bird flu Officials say the risk to public health is low. Here's the story Over 4 million chickens in Iowa will have to be killed after officials detected signs of bird flu. Deadly and highly infectious for birds. Officials say the risk to public human health is currently low. The culling of the chickens is not about humans.

24:32 The culling of the chickens is about protecting the chicken industry. Dr. Robert Malone says they don't want the disease to spread to animals in other states. Only three human beings have reportedly caught the bird flu in the U.S. By the way, you know, they pay the farmers off. They pay them off when they kill all those birds. Yeah, of course. None experienced serious health problems. Malone says chicken culling is a decades old policy. He believes it's debatable whether it's the best policy, but he does think it's defensible. He also says it doesn't hurt farmers too much. They usually have insurance in case this happens.

25:10 So in the short term, what it's going to do is reduce availability. It's going to make it harder to get chicken in some regions. But the chicken industry is geographically dispersed. Bird flu is, however, battering the industry. The disease has annihilated over 92 million birds since last February, leading to rising egg and chicken prices. And of course, we remember that they were already doing this by burning down all the chicken farms during COVID. That was fun. Everywhere there was a fire. Oh, chickens. Sorry, chickens. Now, Dr. Sutton took it to another level. What I like about this clip is they're using all the terms that we were taught during COVID.

CHAPTER 09 / 57 Discussion

Media Coverage, Asymptomatic Spread and Pandemic Preparedness

ABC and CBS News are criticized for using COVID-era terminology, such as "asymptomatic spread" and "mutations," to describe recent bird flu cases in dairy workers. Health officials report that the primary symptom in humans is conjunctivitis (pink eye), yet media outlets continue to frame the situation as a precursor to the next pandemic. Critics argue the reporting is intentionally alarmist to maintain public concern.

bird flu· asymptomatic spread· cbs news· kaiser family foundation· pandemic· pink eye

26:00 Oh yeah, it's very important. It's like, yeah, remember we used all these terms. This is the stuff you need to remember. Let's talk about a health headline, MIRD flu. We're seeing more of it. Walk us through this. Well, overall, the risk remains low. I know that there's a lot of concern about this problem. So they already start off the thing with a kind of a false premise. Of course. They make it sound as though, they don't make anything clear. This is really bad reporting, but they don't make any... I think it's intentionally so. I think so too. I think they intentionally do this to make it sound as though people are getting bird flu. There's been three cases so far and everyone's recovered fine. It wasn't, it's not a deadly

26:43 bird flu it looks like, but whatever the case, they make it sound like this is about people. Yes! Yes, it's about birds. Wait until you hear the whole report. Let's talk about a health headline. Bird flu. We're seeing more of it. Health headline. Health headline. Walk us through this. Well, overall, the risk remains low. I know that there's a lot of concern about this, but the problem isn't going away. Our medical unit here at ABC is closely following it. So I just want to say, here's what you need to know about this topic. The second case of bird flu this year. Mail-in voting. Wait, wait, wait. What did he say? Closely following it. Mail-in voting. Isn't going away. Our medical unit here at ABC. Our medical unit. That's our medical unit is close. John. Can you check with the no agenda medical unit? I will I'm gonna give him a call He is closely following it. So I just want to say here's what you need to know about this topic The second case of bird flu this year. It's a similar case or similar findings that we've seen in April It's a farm worker a dairy worker infected in Michigan likely contaminated or infected from infected cattle or

27:39 That worker reported mild symptoms similar to the prior case, conjunctivitis or eye irritation and thankfully both have fully recovered. Thankfully they've recovered from pink eye. Breaking! Breaking! Farmer recovers from pink eye! I'm closely following this because unfortunately it seems like it's not really easily controlled. One of those reasons is because there's asymptomatic spread, meaning that cows who don't have symptoms are spreading into other cows and that obviously makes it complicated. Where have I heard that before? Oh, there's asymptomatic spread. Please! And then, unfortunately, I can't show video because we're an audio-only show, but CBS

28:18 They actually showed like a spike virus image during this next report. No. Yes, yes, just like the coronavirus. The same thing. Little ball with spikes on it. Shameless. Medical contributor and editor at large for public health at Kaiser Family Foundation. Thank you so much for joining us. So we were talking before this upstairs and I said, okay, two cases. How big of a deal is this? How concerned should I be? I love when the news models say, how concerned should I be? Well you should be very concerned because when it all comes down to it, you're getting fired, okay? Your elite messaging system will eventually collapse. They always get fired.

29:03 EMN, elite messaging network, there you go. The elite messaging network will eventually collapse, there'll be no ratings, there'll be no money, and you're the first to get fired. You should be worried with this nonsense. I think the key point here is that we are seeing sporadic cases among dairy workers. We are hearing many reports of dairy workers who have pink eye, which is the most characteristic symptom of this right now. And this is concerning because the more you see this virus in people, in cattle, in other mammals, the more opportunities it has to mutate, to adapt. Oh, mutate! And eventually adapt for human-to-human spread. Now that's not going to happen tomorrow.

29:41 But you know, you should be worried about it. But there's a lot we can be doing now to prevent the next pandemic. And this is precisely what we're... The next pandemic. There's a lot we can do, John, to prevent the next pandemic. A lot we can be doing. Before you continue, when was the, in recent, in the last couple hundred years, when was the first pandemic? I'd say Spanish flu back in the 19... Well, you know, it's debatable whether it's 1918 or 1917. Yeah, okay. Well, isn't that... That's the... And then we had another pandemic, I'd say over a hundred years later.

30:21 So now all of a sudden, why are we going to get into a bunch of pandemics? Can I just stop you there? I refute that. There was no pandemic. We had pandemic measures, but COVID was not pandemic worthy. I think that's a position you can take. I'm taking it. But there's a lot we can be doing now to prevent the next pandemic and this is precisely what we're really focused on is how do we prevent that next pandemic from happening. And so I mean the likelihood of anyone getting bird flu you said is pretty low but what are the symptoms and how bad is it? How bad is it? pink eye.

CHAPTER 10 / 57 Discussion

Economic Impact, USDA and Genetically Modified Chickens

Dr. Brian Hooker suggests that the bird flu crisis serves as an economic catalyst to transition the food supply toward alternative technologies. He points out that the USDA has already developed chickens genetically modified to be immune to influenza, potentially replacing culled natural herds. This shift is viewed as a move toward a more controlled, GMO-based protein industry, including lab-grown meat.

31:14 feel fluey as well. Fluey symptoms, people feeling fatigued, muscle aches, that sort of thing. We're not seeing too much in the way of respiratory symptoms because the infections we're seeing right now by and large are eye infections, not respiratory infections. Oh, drat the luck. No respiratory infections yet because it can mutate. Now Dr. Brian Hooker, he is from the Children's Defense Network, I think that's That's Bobby the Ops medical network. He was on the Dr. Drew show and he had a slightly different take about this. Well, I think when we when you look at it at its core, you know, it is an economic disaster. It's an economic, you know, for the for the farmers themselves.

32:00 that have to, you know, are being ordered to call these herds. It's an economic disaster, but it also promotes sort of alternative technologies. You know, I find it odd that a lot of this is happening by the USDA, but yet the USDA is the one that has genetically modified chickens that are genetically modified to be immune to influenza, to bird flu. And so, you know, of course you call the herds and then you can introduce a genetically modified product. And we're being trained more and more as a society in the United States to accept more and more different types of GMOs. And I don't think that this is any accident at this point in time. I'm in agreement. I like that. I like that. The GMO chicken.

32:47 I'll give you a borderline clip of the day for digging that one up. And I actually didn't dig that one up. Oh, that's a surprise. Oh, please. Who was it? Give him credit. No, I would if I if it was I think I just stumbled upon it. I'm not sure this was not a not as I clipped this myself. Let's put it that way. Clipped it myself. I'm sorry. Okay. Clipped it myself. So GMO chicken. I like that idea. That's an interesting way to go. Delicious. Grown in a vat. And then of course, this is... Well, that's what it's all leading to, let's face it. Oh yeah, we know that. And we thought it was going to be beef first, but it looks like it's going to be chicken first. You know, the cheapest protein product you can purchase will now become expensive because there's less of it. And then, bada bing, bada boom, we're going to subsidize chicken from a vat.

Public Health Ontario, Leaked Zoom Call and Human Surveillance

Leaked audio from a Public Health Ontario Zoom call reveals officials discussing "enhanced surveillance" protocols for humans in the event of a bird flu outbreak. Jessica Hopkins and other participants explored ways to monitor farm workers, including undocumented migrants, despite the "sensitivities" involved. The conversation indicates a high level of preparedness for implementing tracking systems similar to those used during the COVID-19 pandemic.

public health ontario· jessica hopkins· surveillance· bird flu· migrant workers· leaked audio

33:43 You watch. Or maybe they'll have GMO bread chickens. The public health officials in Canada, unfortunately, decided to do a Zoom call which got leaked. Did you see any of this Zoom call? I did. I was going to clip it, but I thought the quality of the audio was lousy and I think it was a lot of, I didn't find it very entertaining. I pulled one minute of it. Thanks, Jessica Hopkins, Public Health Ontario. I was just wondering, so in the event there is a pause for milk, do we have a plan to start

34:22 active surveillance in humans. I think that, you know, I'm just sort of thinking about like, what's the next step? Are we just going to wait or do we have something that's kind of keyed up, queued up and ready to go once once we see a positive? Thanks. Yeah. You got something keyed up for surveillance in humans. So, Jessica, that's exactly the protocol I was talking about in the enhanced surveillance that we're working to put together. Enhanced surveillance now. Use it. Yeah. Stop it for a second. They're already doing surveillance in humans. So now we have to enhance that. That's kind of the kicker to this clip. Yep, yep. So, Jessica, that's exactly the protocol I was talking about in the enhanced surveillance that we're working to put together that we won't use. I shouldn't say we won't use. There's some potential ways we could use it. We get baseline. We could do it on pigs. We can do it on when he says pigs, by the way, he means humans.

35:15 He's not talking about actual pigs. We could do it on pigs, we could do it on avian, even though it's been done by the BC folks. But obviously the preoccupation is to land something so that if we do find a positive farm, we can get in there. But that's that's where our work right now has been focused on trying to develop something that would be implementable around those farms. I will flag that, you know, there's the science part and the lab part and the thinking through the epi part. And then there's the enormous sensitivities around who's going on farms, are these quarantined areas, the farmers, the undocumented workers or migrant workers, document that whole sensitivity area about we're here from the government and we're here to help you testing that has been very challenging in other jurisdictions who have attempted to do this. Yeah, we want to get onto the farms where they have pigs and human clothing. These people have no regard for us.

36:12 That's what I'm hearing. They're just the elite sitting in their little boxes at home on the Zoom call. Hey, we're going to do any enhanced surveillance on these human pigs in human clothing. It's really disheartening that these people are here to protect us from something that is not dangerous and they're all jacked and jitty about it. And of course, The University of Pennsylvania comes through. H5N1 rarely infects humans, but there's been heightened concern amid a current outbreak circulating in birds and cattle in the US. Oh, heightened concerned! Concerned, concerned. I'm just so sick of these people. They've got to stop. Oh, yoy yoy. But then the show's over. Well, there's a point. I'm holding a document I want to put in the next newsletter. Oh, okay. It's from Anthem Blue Cross.

CHAPTER 12 / 57 Discussion

Anthem Blue Cross, Vaccine Provider Incentives and Doctor Bonuses

Documents from Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield outline a "COVID-19 Vaccine Provider Incentive Program" that paid doctors cash bonuses based on the percentage of their patients vaccinated. The progressive payment structure offered up to $250 per newly vaccinated member if a practice reached a 75% vaccination threshold. Critics argue these financial rewards compromised medical ethics by incentivizing doctors to push treatments for profit.

anthem blue cross· covid-19 vaccine· financial incentives· healthcare· bonuses· medical ethics

37:25 and Blue Shield COVID-19 vaccine provider incentive program. It's the exact layouts from December, September 1st, 2021 to December 31st. You know, you put these things out and people pick them up and they make copies. Yeah. 30% said it, how you can qualify for a bonus is for the doctors. If your practice meets the below thresholds for vaccination with at least one dose by September 1st, 2021, you'll receive the initial incentive payment based on the following rates. 30% ANTHEM members vaccinated.

38:05 a $20 bonus per vaccinated member, 40%. So this is progressive. I can imagine the meeting that went on, and you can too, where they said, well, this is going to look kind of fishy. It looks like the farmer's buying. No, no, no, we're doing this to incentivize the doctors with cash. So to protect the public. Where have I heard 40% Anthem members vaccinated, $45 per vaccinated member. And you get to seven, it goes up 75 to when it gets to 75% Anthem members vaccinated, you get $125 bonus per vaccinated member. That's disgusting.

38:46 It's totally disgusting. Then it says the final incentive payment is calculated based on members who are newly vaccinated between September 1st and December 31st, 2021. And it's got an appendix I don't have. If your practice meets the below thresholds for vaccination with at least one done by December 1st, 2021, you will receive the final incentive payment based on the following rates. Now it starts with 30% vaccinated, $100 bonus per newly vaccinated, and it goes up to 40, 50, 60, 75% ANTHEM members vaccinated.

39:26 $250 bonus per newly vaccinated member. And this is for COVID? Yeah, this is for the COVID vaccine. And so this brought me to a series of clips, if you want to hear them at this point. I do, I'm all jacked now. About the vaccine incentives for people to get their kids vaccinated by the pediatricians who have been bought off. Oh yeah. And I want to point people to this morning's PBS show second opinion with Joan London. Yeah, and I don't have... Wait, Joan London still does shows? Brother, she's totally sold out and I'm gonna try to clip it for Sunday which is some of these, it's just, it's the worst of the worst about the vaccine and how great it was.

CHAPTER 13 / 57 Discussion

Pediatricians, Vaccine Schedules and Patient Dismissal

Reports indicate that nearly two in five pediatricians dismiss families from their practices if they refuse to follow the standard CDC vaccine schedule. This trend is linked to the significant revenue generated by well-child visits and the administration of multiple vaccines simultaneously. Financial incentives and the desire to maintain high compliance rates are cited as reasons why doctors may avoid discussing vaccine risks with parents.

pediatricians· cdc vaccine schedule· children's health defense· medical ethics· bribery· healthcare revenue

40:16 But let's listen to this Vax clip one on what the pediatricians are up against. Can I ask you a question? Because I see Vax incentives 1, 2, 4 and then just something with no number. What do I do here? Do you think that that one is number 3 maybe? The one that has no number? Oh, 118. They're all there. Yeah, I would think that's number 3. Elitist Voices of America. This is NPR. Although pediatricians have a legal duty to fully inform patients about vaccine risks and side effects, the lure of monetary perks and the desire to fit in may lessen their motivation to do so. Parents have been conditioned just to trust their doctors. Schools around the country require childhood vaccinations for children to be enrolled. Is this bribery?

41:12 , $100 billion in sales in 2022. The US government also paid news media $2 billion to promote and build confidence in the jab, along with Pfizer's $2.8 billion spent on ads in 2022 alone. The fake consensus of getting jabbed to keep others safe was created by paid special interest groups and more than 50 major healthcare organizations who, outside of Pfizer payments, stood to earn billions of dollars in revenue from COVID-related admissions, testing, staff vaccinations, treatments, and deaths. I realize I played the elitist voices jingle in error. Where did this come from?

42:10 This came from somebody called I am the Republic or something. This is one of those women and there's a number of these women, the kind of the amazing Polly style. Also that little cat that used to talk. I miss that one. There used to be a member of this, it was called... The talking cat. The talking cat, it was called the truth of something or other. But it had a little cat in the corner. Yeah, I know, the cat was great. Stupid cat. The talking cat was great. This is interesting because I'm just reading in SF Gate that Q Health, which was, you know, one of the big testing companies during COVID had 1500 workers. They fired everybody, they're closing up shop. So there must be some sort of

42:53 consolidation and some people are all in and some people aren't. Oh interesting. Yeah. I haven't seen that. Yeah. Testing industrial complex baby. Alright. Vax incentives, too. Anytime financial incentives are part of the equation, one can reasonably assume that the lure of self-enrichment will win. With tens of thousands of dollars at stake, pediatricians can easily be lulled into complacency when it comes to digging deeper into the science. After all, who wants to see evidence that what they're doing is causing more harm than good?

43:32 These kinds of incentives also encourage pediatricians to simply toss questioning parents out of their practice to make room for more compliant patients that don't put their income at risk. As reported by Children's Health Defense back in 2018, the 11 well-child visits recommended by the AAP over a child's first 30 months, with annual visits thereafter through age 21, ensure a steady stream of repeat customers and revenue for pediatricians. In accordance with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's vaccine schedule, Pediatric practices are expected to administer vaccines, often as many as six at a time, at about half of well-child visits throughout the adolescent years, making vaccination a foundational bread and butter component of pediatricians' job description. It is quite common for pediatricians and family doctors to encounter parents who refuse one or more of infant vaccines, most often due to safety concerns.

44:34 Rather than recognize the validity of parents' safety concerns or admit to their own ambivalence about some of the newer vaccines, many pediatricians, nearly two in five according to some estimates, choose to boot uncooperative families out of their practice. Ultimately, subtle and not so subtle financial incentives and social pressures are likely to maintain widespread adherence by pediatricians to the vaccine schedule, even in instances where contraindications are present. Now I have to say that not all doctors are bad or corrupt, but they are indeed educated to do just this. They are now just, in general, generalizing, they are trained to diagnose and prescribe.

CHAPTER 14 / 57 Discussion

Healthcare Corporatization, Sutter Health and Nurse Practitioners

The modern healthcare system is described as a machine-like environment where lawyers and administrators, rather than doctors, set protocols. Large organizations like Sutter Health are increasingly replacing MDs with nurse practitioners and medical assistants to follow standardized checklists. This shift toward corporatized medicine is seen as a precursor to AI-driven diagnostics, where human medical judgment is minimized in favor of legal and financial efficiency.

sutter health· healthcare administration· nurse practitioners· medical protocols· ai in medicine

45:20 Then, then, oh well I mean if I get a little Benny on the side, I mean good for me, I'm a doctor, I studied for eight years. Well, they're, most of them are not diagnosing anything, they're just going by protocols. Well, that's the same. And the protocols are pretty straight forward. No, they are diagnosing. If you're working at Sutter Health. They are, there's like, you're a human being, I've just diagnosed you, here's a shot. If you're working at Sutter Health or any of these big organizations which really dominate the scene right now, they have protocols that are put in place by lawyers. In fact, the head of...the CEO of Sutter Health isn't even a doctor, which is weird. But they're put in place by lawyers and you just become part of a machine.

46:05 So you come in your mail XYZ and you take a blood test and you got these so you got this that and the other you got to do this and that you got to take a stat and you got to do this you get it's all just on a it's a checklist checklist doctor yes yes and AI can do this by the way it will don't worry and it will it will because they've been pushing doctors real MDs out of the picture as fast as they can and many of them don't even understand it what's happening to them you know, in favor of nurse, nurse practitioners and medical doctor assistants or some other, there's other, some other category providers. Well, that's what the general specific. Yes. Lower education is nurse practitioner, or I think the other one is medical assistant or something. And they get to prescribe stewardess.

46:55 Yes, flight attendant. Sorry Dame Christina Pearl. Yes, flight attendant. But the fact that they can say that two out of five doctors, these are real doctors, kick people out of the practice if they don't go along with the program, the checklist, which allows them to get this money because if you listen as this, as these clips continue, if you don't Make sure if you have a practice of 10 people, well you don't, nobody has 10, but let's say you had 10 for mathematical purposes, and you have to have all 10 of them on board or you won't get any of the money. That's right.

CHAPTER 15 / 57 Discussion

Global Vaccine Initiatives, WHO and Financial Coercion

A global effort involving the WHO, UNICEF, and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation aims to "catch up" children on vaccinations following pandemic-era disruptions. Critics question whether the entire global vaccine program relies on financial coercion and bribery of front groups to advocate for mandates. The discussion explores what would happen if all financial incentives were removed and parents were provided with unbiased evidence.

world health organization· unicef· bill and melinda gates foundation· gavi· vaccine mandates

47:34 Get on board people, don't you like the gravy train? Okay, so this is hopefully clip 3. Although pediatricians have a legal duty to fully inform patients about vaccine risks and side effects, the lure of monetary perks and the desire to fit in may lessen their motivation to do so. Parents have been conditioned just to trust their doctors. Schools around the country require childhood vaccinations for children to be enrolled. Is this bribery? Well, in 2020, Pfizer paid undisclosed sums to front groups that advocated for jab mandates, thereby... Isn't this the same clip as clip one? No. ...hiding their conflict of interest. Due to the fake grassroots work of... Yeah, this is... Yeah, this is clip one again. It's the same as clip one.

48:23 I don't believe so. Okay, hold on. All of a sudden my system got stuck. Oh, hold on. In fact, I will start them at the same time and you will hear there's exactly the same clip. Oh, it may be shorter actually. Interesting. Let's see. As the healthcare industry becomes just a huge money-making scheme... Well, it's a little different. You're right. ...to fully inform patients about vaccine risks and side effects, the lure of monetary perks and the desire to fit in may lessen their motivation to do so. Parents have been conditioned just to trust their doctors. Schools around the country require childhood vaccinations for children to be enrolled. Is this bribery? Well, in 2020, Pfizer paid undisclosed sums to front groups that advocated for jab mandates, thereby hiding their conflict of interest. Due to the fake

49:15 grassroots work of these groups, Pfizer was able to rake in a record-breaking... This is the same, it's just a shorter version of that other clip, I'm sorry. Well this one mentioned the schools and the first one didn't, okay, well let's just skip it the rest of it. All right. Because the rest of it does sound similar, but let's go to clip 4 and finish it. ever. Over the next 18 months, this initiative will attempt to catch up as many kids as possible, she said. Partners in this effort include the World Health Organization, UNICEF, Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, Immunization Agenda 2030, and several other global and national health partners.

50:12 When you look at all these areas of bribery and financial incentives, doesn't it seem as though the entire vaccine program runs on financial coercion? What would happen if all financial incentives were removed? What would happen if parents were simply given unbiased evidence and no one was financially driven to pressure them either way? Makes you wonder. Makes you wonder! Yes, well of course. I know at least five families who have not vaccinated their children for anything. Now of course they can't enroll them in local schools so they're homeschool groups. But they seem fine.

CHAPTER 16 / 57 Discussion

ADHD Diagnosis Surge, CDC Data and Screen-Induced Autism

The CDC reports a significant increase in ADHD diagnoses and stimulant prescriptions for children since the pandemic, with one in nine children now diagnosed. While medical professionals attribute this to developmental impacts of the pandemic, others point to the 24-hour availability of screens and "screen-induced autism." The trend of using tablets as "digital pacifiers" in public spaces like airports is highlighted as a contributing factor to behavioral issues.

50:50 The Eric's family, all unvaccinated, he is an anti-vaxxer to an extreme. And they've never had their kids vaccinated and they're in school fine in South Dakota. Yeah. But it's and then you get this next report. And he's like, wow, I wonder how this happened. The CDC has reported an increase in the number of kids being diagnosed with ADHD since the pandemic. What is this all about? Yeah, so let me take you through this medical headline because it's getting a lot of attention from Dr. Jen, America's favorite doctor. Every time I listen to her, she's so full of it. Yeah, well, she's America's favorite doctor. Let me take you through this medical headline because it's getting a lot of attention from parents, pediatricians, anyone who has a child in their life. Survey data analysis from over 45,000 parents compiled by the CDC, what they found is that one in nine children has a diagnosis of ADHD, almost 3.5%

51:46 million children age 3 to 17 are on a prescription ADHD medication. One of my children happens to be one of them even though a little outside of that age group. There was an increase in the stimulant prescriptions written to girls. versus the pre-pandemic years. Girls tend to be underdia. I tell you there's a range of options in treating ADHD. For my child, when that diagnosis was made and when medication was started, it was a game changer. So parents should talk to their child's pediatrician if they have any concerns. Why are we seeing these increases in numbers? Because of the increase. Why?

52:24 but I will tell you anyone in health care, any doctor knew at the time that the pandemic was going to be having an impact on children in a very vulnerable stage in their development that we might not see until several years down the road and that's one of the things this study is pointing to. Now of course there you know oh you're an anti-vaxxer there's no proof that ADHD is caused by vaccines and that is disputable. I think there's also a very high likelihood that the introduction of coincidence the introduction of 24 hour a day screens during the pandemic. Man we so we flew to Nashville for the weekend and we came back Monday and airports if you want to see what's going on with children look at the amount of parents

53:12 And kids are, you know, they're annoyed, flying is tedious. And then you just see the parents like, all right, sit down, here's your screen, take your screen. And then you just see the kids go, they're in the zone. And that's screen-induced autism, I think is what it's called. You know, it's like, okay, what do you expect? You're jabbing him with stuff, you're throwing screens in front of him. And I feel bad, I mean, I understand. Uneducated parents, you know, they just, it's a game changer. Give that kid a tablet. Ah, thanks mom. I feel so much better now. I can interact with glass. It's great. That's not the only problem we're seeing with children.

Morgan Spurlock, McDonald's Fries and Food Ingredients

Following the death of "Super Size Me" filmmaker Morgan Spurlock at age 53, a breakdown of McDonald's french fries reveals they contain 18 to 19 different ingredients. These include four types of seed oils, sodium acid pyrophosphate for color retention, and dimethylpolysiloxane, an anti-foaming agent also used in cosmetics. The high chemical content of fast food is contrasted with traditional homemade versions of the same snacks.

57:30 in a kind of a macabre sort of way. I just felt bad. It's like, okay, finally people are getting a little taste of what's true. I'm sorry? I was going to say, since you brought up the fact that people, the kids behind the screens aren't eating anything, any real food, I do have two clips. I wanted to add them before you go into that, that Morgan Spurlock died the guy who did the Super Size Me documentary. Yes, and I got a kind of a spin-off of that. And well, here's the thing, people are like, what do you think? Did he die from the vax or from the food? I'm like, yes. Is that a question? Geez. Well, he was a big vax promoter. He was, he was. That was kind of the irony. He died at 53. A lot of these people that are vax promoters end up dying.

58:26 But this is another guy and he doesn't, he's not doing the super-sized thing. He's just breaking down. And I looked into this and he's absolutely correct on all this stuff. And I didn't realize that McDonald's french fries had 19 ingredients. Oh yeah. The only thing that's lacking I think is potatoes. Potatoes are in there, but it's like in one of the minor parts, but this is a good couple of clips I see Donald's fries. I see two I see McDonald's fries and McDonald's fries BS And they look like the same clip you should have had your coffee man so

59:08 Uh, okay, well there's a play, I think it's just gonna be one clip. Alright. Wrong. There's actually 18 ingredients in these fries alone. Firstly, we have four different types of seed oils in these fries alone, which are all linked to heart disease, diabetes, dementia, and a bunch of other health conditions. Then you have something called sodium acid pyrophosphate, which maintains the color of this, which is linked to kidney damage and calcium deposits that block arteries. Next, you have something called dimethylpolysiloxane, which is used in industrial lubricants and cosmetics like nail polish.

Southwest Airlines, Seating Policy Changes and Snack Ingredients

Southwest Airlines is reportedly considering a shift away from its signature open-seating policy toward assigned seating and boarding groups. This change comes amid complaints from flight attendants about the "ragamuffin" boarding process and pre-boarding abuses. Additionally, a review of airline snack mixes reveals they can contain up to 70 ingredients, including enriched flours and various chemical additives, far removed from simple "nuts and bolts" recipes.

southwest airlines· airline seating· dame christina pearl· food additives· czech mix

59:53 And to top it all off, you would use salt. But the salt has four different ingredients like sugar and something called silicoaluminate, which is salt made from aluminum. And aluminum, as we know, is linked to Alzheimer's and a bunch of other neurodegenerative diseases. No, it's interesting you bring that up because we flew Southwest, which is my favorite airline. I love Southwest. I love their boarding process. It turns out I heard from Dame Christina Pearl that everyone who works for Southwest hates it. They hate the boarding process. They hate open seating because then they can't boss people around like shut up. You've got 8A, sit. I believe that to be true and they are changing it for your information.

1:00:38 What is the information you've received? That they're gonna go to the normal way of seating in groups that have assigned seats. I'm not so sure. She was not sure about that and she works for the airline. Well, it's a report that I've seen. Yeah, I've heard that they are, what they are changing is the ragamuffin boarding. What Tina calls the, yeah, so It's like pre-boarding for people who are less abled, for old people, for people with children. Yeah, we always had a tirade about this on the last DHM plug. Yeah, we called that the ragamuffin class because everyone was like, no, I got some kids, you know, and then I got my grandparents with me and look, I got a limp. So I took home with me a snack mix

1:01:24 packet, which I did not open because I looked at the back. There are 70 ingredients. Now inside looks just like pretz, like Czech mix. Czechs mix. Remember Czechs mix? Yeah, Czechs mix. Get a little, little pretzel. Get a little... You made it, but usually you don't, in the early days you made it yourself. You made it yourself. Yeah, my, my grandmother used to make it and she'd do it with peanuts, pretz, and she called it nuts and bolts because she'd put Cheerios in there. And bolts. Yeah, nuts, nuts and bolts. And some actual bolts. But man, I mean, it really is. First of all, enriched wheat flour, that's the worst right there. Niacin, reduced iron, thiamine, monotrate, riboflavin. I mean, I took a picture, I'm gonna post it in the show notes. It is unbelievable, it's anything but Czech mix. It's just nasty, it's nasty. It's nasty, but even I, I was hungry and I wanted some salt, but now I'm not gonna eat that.

David Morens Hearing, FOIA Evasion and Anthony Fauci

Dr. David Morens, a senior advisor to Anthony Fauci, faced a congressional hearing regarding his use of personal email to evade Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests. Emails revealed Morens discussed "making emails disappear" with the help of the NIH FOIA office and deleting correspondence related to the origins of COVID-19. The testimony suggests a coordinated effort within the NIAID to hide official business from public scrutiny and congressional oversight.

Oh, Moran. Morons. Morons. Morons. M-O-R-A-N. Yeah, that guy. M-O-R-E-N-S, I believe. Oh, I thought it was M-O-R-A-N. No, M-O-R-E-N. It's not M-O-R-O-N? No, but it should be. He is the NIAD Senior Scientific Advisor to Anthony Fauci.

1:03:02 And he... Yes? Yeah, I've watched this entire thing and the guy is a prick. So I... There's a there's a so-called supercut Which is like 13 minutes long? No, but I did pull to that's not a super no It's not and this is a slow cut But it does have just kind of the some of the damning information in here If we get tired of it, we can stop it. It's about two minutes. I have a just a rhetorical question. I Why is it that the only people that care about these and the questioners that are any good are Republicans? The Democrats seem to think it's great. They back up these guys. Oh no, you're great. No, they're deranged. Something's amiss when the entire Democrat Party

1:04:00 is behind... Well, let's look at who was donating to the Democrat Party, perhaps. Oh no, I know. You know who's to blame? The Jews! The Zionists! AIPAC! I'm being facetious. Yes, you are. Tony, meaning Tony Fauci, does not want me to connect anything to him. And when asked by my colleagues, did you use personal email for official business? Your answer was, I didn't think it was doing official business. And then just now you said not intentionally. On October 5, 2021, you wrote, Peter, I just got news that a FOIA picked up an email I sent you saying Tony commented that he was brain dead.

1:04:45 I deleted that email, but I now learn that every email I ever got since 1998 is captured and will be turned over whether or not instantly deleted. On June 28, 2021, you wrote, Peter Daszak emailed me and Tony congratulating Tony on standing up for science. That email fell into the hands of the congressman, probably via FOIA of someone who didn't delete it as I did. As I did delete all of Peter's emails and others related to Origin. Mine was erased long ago. I verified that today and I feel pretty sure Tony's was too. He wrote on February 24th, 2021.

1:05:30 You said you were right and I need to be more careful. However, as I mentioned once before, I learned from our FOIA lady here how to make emails disappear after I am FOIA'd. But before the search starts, so I think we are all safe. Plus, I deleted most of those earlier emails after sending them to Gmail. But on February 24th, 2021, you wrote, quote, I learned from our FOIA lady here how to make emails disappear after I'm FOIA'd but before the search starts. So I think we are all safe. Plus I deleted most of those earlier emails after sending them to Gmail, end quote. And the next day on February 25th, 2021, you wrote, quote, but I learned the tricks last year from an old friend, Marge Moore. Who heads our FOIA office and also hates

1:06:17 Foyas, end quote. Under the Freedom of Information Act, so that's why you put stuff on your own private server like Hillary did or you use some other system other than the government system because all the government stuff is saved and This guy you know Marge Marge, you know who works in the large large large large

EcoHealth Alliance, Gain-of-Function Research and Rand Paul

Congressional investigations continue to probe the $7.5 million grant awarded to EcoHealth Alliance and its ties to the Wuhan Institute of Virology. Emails from Dr. David Morens jokingly asked for "kickbacks" from Peter Daszak, highlighting the cozy relationship between grant-makers and recipients. Senator Rand Paul's previous efforts to hold Anthony Fauci accountable for lying about gain-of-function research are revisited as more evidence of corruption emerges.

1:06:58 Large Marge who works in the government, you know, she's oh I hate FOIA. It's annoying. The citizens wanting to know stuff We can't have that 30 seconds left. FOIAs in quote an email is reviewed by the select subcommittee You described laboratory related origin theories as conspiracy theories and have said that considering these theories is quote-unquote wasting time and quote-unquote being crazy On August 27, 2020, after NIH was awarded a $7.5 million grant to EcoHealth Alliance, you wrote to him and you asked, do I get a kickback?

1:07:39 Too much fooking, F-O-O-K-I-N-G, money. Do you deserve it all? Question mark. Let's discuss. There's your smoking gun right there. These people are corrupt, man. Corrupt. Where's my money? Where's my money? Where's my money? And this is the season of reveal. It's all coming out. Now it's going to take years before the general population hears about this, unless everyone starts listening to podcasts. That's the only way. The elite messaging network, it's still prevalent. People are still listening to it. Yeah, and they're buying it. They're buying it, yeah, they're buying it big time. Big time.

1:08:23 So that's your health officials, your health officials taking care. And that was only the part of the hearing where they're discussing the origins and the fact that they were trying to cover up the fact that EcoHealth Alliance and our government was sending money. our money, our taxpayer money to the Wuhan virology lab to do gain-of-function research because it was illegal in our country because we made it illegal because it was getting too dangerous even though they were still doing stuff here and there like the University of North Carolina I believe is one of the places. And that was that part of the hearing but it goes on and on. I mean this guy is in the middle of it all and he's very arrogant. Yes, as they all are.

1:09:09 As they all are. Yeah, I think the best going back to Fauci versus Rand Paul and you can really see it then. Rand Paul had the goods. He wasn't, you know, he couldn't say what he had, but he knew everything. And he was grilling Fauci to get him to lie. And then he was trying to get Fauci arrested and throwing the slammer for lying to Congress. And they're not going to do anything about that. No, man, he was just trying to raise donations for his re-election campaign. That's not true. He was just using it to campaign. It was all just it was all performative. It's performative. It's performative. I want to play one since you brought her up and play one more clip before we thank some people.

Haiti Political Transition, Gary Conille and Globalist Influence

Dr. Gary Conille has been named the new Prime Minister of Haiti by the Transitional Presidential Council to address the country's rampant gang violence. Conille, a former UNICEF director and Fulbright scholar, has deep ties to the United Nations and the Clinton family's previous reconstruction efforts in Haiti. His appointment is seen as a move to stabilize the nation and potentially pave the way for international security interventions, such as Kenyan police forces.

haiti· gary conille· unicef· bill clinton· hillary clinton· gang violence

1:09:53 This is the latest development. We talked about it just the other day. We were curious why it wasn't happening and there it is. Amid a climate of gang violence, poverty and political instability, a new prime minister has been named to lead Haiti. Following discussions with the Transitional Presidential Council after the hearings of the candidates selected for the position of prime minister, Dr. Gary Connie was chosen by consensus to lead the government of the transition period. Gary Connie is no stranger to the position. He previously served as Haiti's Prime Minister from October 2011 to May 2012 and helped coordinate the reconstruction effort after the devastating 2010 earthquake.

1:10:34 Since January 2023, he has been UNICEF's regional director for Latin America and the Caribbean and has 25 years of experience with the United Nations and other aid agencies. He is now faced with a task daunting for even the most experienced, wrestling Haiti back from the armed gangs who control an estimated 80% of the capital Port-au-Prince. So this is Bill and Hillary's guy. Yeah, he was a part of all that and he's, you know, this is a total globalist. He was, he's a, oh, here we go. The fellow, the Fulbright Scholar Program, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, a vast career in the United Nations.

Netherlands Coalition Government, Geert Wilders and Dick Schoof

After eight months of negotiations, Geert Wilders' coalition in the Netherlands has selected Dick Schoof, the former head of Dutch intelligence (AIVD), as the new Prime Minister. Schoof has a long history in the Justice Department and was involved in overseeing controversial cases like the Demmink affair. The selection of a career intelligence official to lead a populist-won government has surprised many Dutch citizens who expected a more radical change in leadership.

1:11:25 And in that report you see, remember when Hillary was really clippity-clop and she was Secretary of State and she'd walk through those doors and we'd laugh about her her clump feet going clippity-cloppity-clippity. There she is walking in with the Haiti guy, there's Bill hanging out with the guy. And it's not like Barbecue said, yo this is the guy. No, they're still fighting. But now, now we have a guy who can ask for help. I mean, he can come in, ask for help and blue helmets. We'll send some people in from Kenya. Who we happen to have a meeting with. It's beautiful that way. Speaking of prime ministers. Wow. You know that Geert Wilders won the majority or won the most votes. They finally put a cabinet together.

1:12:13 in the Netherlands, which has now been eight months, I think. So they finally have a coalition and Geert said, and Geert of course is the longest sitting member of parliament at this point, he's an Islamophobe. You know, he's made a lot of promises like we're going to stop the immigration, we're going to, you know, take care of Dutch first, make Holland great again. Who do they choose as Prime Minister? The former chief of the intern of basically the Dutch CIA, Dix Hoer.

1:12:58 This guy who has been in the Justice Department in the Netherlands for the past 26 years at least, he oversaw the Dutroux affair, which really resulted in nothing, known as the Rolodex affair. The Demink, remember the guy who... who was the Justice, was the Attorney General, and he was, you know, he was hanging out with young Turkish boys in bushes. This guy put all of, this is the guy who helped cover all of that up, and now he's the, he's gonna be the Prime Minister. It's amazing. Everyone in Holland is like, what? This guy? Wow. And then, just to add some Dutch news,

Schiphol Airport Jet Engine Incident and Dutch Suicides

A person was killed after being sucked into a jet engine of a KLM Cityhopper plane at Schiphol Airport as it prepared for takeoff. While the identity of the individual has not been released, there is speculation that the incident may have been a suicide, a common occurrence in the Dutch transit system. The tragedy caused significant disruption at the airport and was witnessed by numerous passengers on the Embraer aircraft.

1:13:49 Someone got sucked into a jet engine at Schiphol. Exactly. A person sucked into a jet engine and killed as plane prepares to take off. I wonder who that was. Well, that's one way of getting rid of the evidence. I've been conversing with some, this is a city hopper, so they go from Pier A, A1A and A3. And there's a lot of buses that transport passengers between the parking spots and the piers there. But there's also ongoing construction work. So we don't know yet, at least not at this hour. We don't know yet. It was an Embraer jet, so a smaller jet engine, which probably really ruined the engine. But we haven't seen any footage yet, but I'm sure lots of passengers saw this happen. So there's

1:14:43 talk that it could have been a suicide, which is like, wow, that's a way to go. Of all ways to go, I think that's on the bottom of the list. Well, there's a lot of people that commit suicide in the Netherlands. Typically, they jump in front of the train and that happens almost daily. And they have a code for it. If they say we have a technical issue with the electrical lines, That's code for someone jumped in front of the train. It's so bad that it's hard to get conductors, you know, train engineers to drive the trains. Oh yeah, they'd be depressing. Very depressing. You can't run into some dude. This sucks. Just imagine though. I mean, anyway, so it's, you know, we have of course prognosticated this will be happening more and more. You know, Hunter Biden better be careful. Don't fly KLM.

1:15:42 The City Hopper, now known as the City Chopper. Oh man, I can't believe I did that. The City Chopper. With that, I'd like to thank you for your courage, say in the morning to you the man who put the sea in the City Chopper. Say hello to my friend on the other end, the one and only Mr. John C. DeVore. In the morning to you, Mr. Al-Qurayniy-Murra, ship's sea-boatsman, the air-subs, and the water-dames and knights out there. In the morning to our trolls, hello trolls, and the cast of First Sight. Oh, this is good. This is good. We have 1764 today in our troll room. Last Thursday's show was 1693, so we have an increase in troll count. I'm happy to see this. Good on you, trolls. Nice to have you back.

Value for Value, Podcast Index and Deplatforming Defense

The No Agenda show celebrates 17 years of operation using the "Value for Value" model, which relies on listener donations rather than advertising. The hosts discuss the importance of the Podcast Index and modern podcast apps in defending against deplatforming by major tech companies like Spotify and Apple. They emphasize that their independence allows them to discuss "verboten" topics that would be censored in a commercial media environment.

1:16:32 It was, we're in Nashville and I had everything lined up and something went wrong technically and the live stream started playing the episode 1662, so the show that we had done on Sunday. And stuff happens, you know, it's like this is all volunteers, these are all value for value people. And so sometimes something goes wrong. But the tweets and the toots that I got, it was really like, What is this new? This is the old show. It's like I'm pulling the plug on this. I can't listen to this. Wow, people. You know, it was corrected within like 15 minutes. You know, I made a few calls and we fixed it. Wow. It's just like, come on, man. You know, we're not we're not NBC here by a long shot anyway. Yeah. And the donations prove it.

1:17:31 I saw it. The trolls, of course, hang out in the troll room at trollroom.io where you can always join in 24 hours a day because we got a lot of podcasts that are live or replays on the stream. But really, the beauty is being in the troll room and trolling, you know, and saying stuff like, well, this is I'm logging out. I'm rage quitting because it's about heard the show. This is wrong. This is wrong. Yeah. Or you could just stay put and you know hang out and troll the host that's what usually happens on these days troll room.io or use a modern podcast app you're gonna need it in the future Spotify is deplatforming three to five podcasts daily Apple doesn't mention anything, but they're doing the same They're all they're all taking so much work for him anyway. What is too much work?

1:18:23 These guys, Apple, Spotify, why are they even involved? Exactly, which is why we built the podcast index and all the modern podcast apps connect to it. There's no d platform and go to podcastapps.com. You will not be disappointed. Value for value is... is how we've been keeping this show afloat for 17 years. It'll be 17 years in October because obviously if we relied on commercial money that would have been, well, that's it for our six month anniversary. It was nice knowing you, John. Instead we pretty much that would be the case because half the stuff we talk about is verboten yes That's right now of course. We could have gone all in we would have been rich. We could have been Rogan rich. That's true That's that's true if we had gone along with the program and Promoting you know it's like the vaccine schedule from that's right anthem. That's right. You know you know just I

1:19:21 The more you do, the more you get, the more money you make. One of the ways that... Selling out your listeners. The fact that we have people who actually put their energy and their time into making sure we have a live stream and making sure that stuff does get scheduled and played, even though there's a snafu from time to time, it happens. That's value that's provided back. It's very rare and it's appreciated. I mean, even Darren O'Neill, pre-show guy, value right there, value, value. He went all the way to Chad GPT for a post. I mean, that's still value. It's valuable. We appreciate it.

Tantaniel Artwork, Climate Change Special and The Bug Reflection

The hosts discuss the cover art for their recent Climate Change Special, created by Dutch artist Tantaniel. The image features a polar bear on a small piece of ice with a reflection showing a bug, symbolizing the push for alternative protein sources. They debate the merits of this version versus a more macabre skeleton version, ultimately choosing the bug for its deeper satirical meaning regarding current environmental narratives.

tantaniel· digital art· climate change· polar bear· global warming· no agenda art

1:19:56 We also appreciate our artists and I did not consult you on this because we had selected an older Tantaniel image for the Climate Change Special and then as I was going to download it, I noticed she had put a new one up and I'm like, well, why don't we use the new one? And it was very subtle. I don't know if you saw the image. Yeah, I saw it. Yeah, no, I think that's a prerogative pick. Yeah. Did you see the subtleness of it though? With that bug or whatever the hell was underneath it? Yeah, so you got the... There was two versions of that. Why did you pick that one and not the other one? Well, I picked the one with the bug.

1:20:34 What about the other one? What was wrong with that? What was the other one then? She had two of them. There were two of them. But what was the difference? One wasn't a bug. Because I thought that was great. It was the... So the polar bear is on a small piece of ice and his reflection is a bug from climate change because we're all going to be eating bugs. Well, I know, and here, let me go, I haven't loaded yet, so I have to go load it and see. I thought that was... I'm yakking away here just trying to stall. Oh, okay, alright. I thought it was... No, the other one's like a dead animal of some sort. Yeah, no, it's basically a polar bear skeleton. Yeah. I thought the bug was funnier.

1:21:18 Well, I didn't, I didn't confess. No, I mean, I would, it would be something we'd argue about. Yeah, then, and I would have put my foot down for the bug. I think the bug is probably, yeah, the bug is probably deeper. There you go. Well, we thank Tantanil, we thank all of our artists as always for checking in. A number of people did. Nico Seim brought in something which looked like AI. Was there anything else? No, I think that was it. Of course, we could have also chosen for a Memorial Day, even though it wasn't Memorial Day, it was Sunday, which we typically would have done, but this was not Memorial Day. It was the climate change, it was actually the global warming special.

Budding podcasters have to come to this realization sooner than later.

Associate Executive Producers Shannon Summers and Milo Curtis contribute to the show, with Curtis providing a "well actually" correction regarding naval flag etiquette. He explains that the church pennant is the only flag authorized to fly above the national ensign during services conducted by naval chaplains at sea. The segment highlights the diverse expertise of the listener base and their role in refining the show's factual accuracy.

1:28:10 I really enjoy the show. My donation of 333.33 makes me a first-time executive producer. I would like some jobs, Karma, for a possible promotion at work. Keep up the excellent work. Jimmy Bolton." Alright, we can do that for you. Oops, hold on. Jobs, karma incoming? Jobs, jobs, jobs and jobs. Let's vote for jobs! Now I have to line up a couple of jingles for this next one. Which is written in all caps. Yes, which why do people do that? I'm always I'm always interested in because of the idiotic idea of putting a caps lock key on modern keyboards. There you go Excuse me request quite a lot of long jingles So I'm going to shorten some but it's a switcheroo raffle donation for Shannon Summers So this it says the Indy na meetup, but this will now become Shannon Summers

1:29:14 There's a lot of accounting stuff we've got to do here. I'll take care of that. Okay, Shannon Summers. Boom. Done. Adam and John, thanks for all you do. We do enjoy the mental amusement and education. Your twice weekly sanity break is well worth the journey. I boosted the $250 raffle by 50 dineros to become a true EP executive producer. I have a newfound personal exit strategy. Move to the southern US border, learn Spanish and help the newcomers with their resumes. P.S. Please don't tell Linda Lou Patkin. Miles of smiles and free— Hold on a second, hold on. He thinks her name is Linda Lou. Linda Lou Patkin, yeah. The last name Patkin. I love that. No, her name is Linda and her last name is Lou Patkin. I think Linda Lou Patkin should change her name. Linda Lou. Linda Lou. Linda Lou, come here. Linda Lou, come in. It's dinner time.

1:30:09 Miles of smiles and free advertising and the mere cost of 45 ducats in the Hoosier state. Jingles, Martha, look at this juice. I got hairy legs. Obama chicken dance and a Rev. Al failed pronunciations. We'll go for the first three. Oh my gosh! Can you see that juice? I got hairy legs. Oh, hey, hey, hey, hey. There you go. There you go. Milo Curtis in Chesapeake, Virginia, 250. We're already down into the associate executive producer level already. After listening to 1186 shows, Milo writes, I'm finally able to contribute.

1:31:10 The amount of value I have hoarded and not given back is shameful. So let the de-douching commence! You've been de-douched. Twelve years of right-sizing my amygdala has left me fortified against the corrupt media efforts to manipulate and lead astray. Leave me astray, I should say. As a result, my friends often marvel at the keen insights that I bring to the discussions. This overwhelming value is due to my media deconstruction mentors, John and Adam. In episode 1662, it was mentioned that no flag is authorized to fly higher than the ensign.

1:31:57 This gave me my first well actually. According to the Navy instruction NTP 13 B and Marine Order 10520.3, no other flag or pennant should be placed above or if on the same level to the right of the national flag except during church services conducted by naval chaplains at sea when the church pennant May be flown above the flag during church services for the personnel of the Navy. When the church pennant flies above the ensign, it is a declaration that we are one nation under God. Now there you go. There you go. There you go. Thanks so much for your 12 years of amazing services. It's actually coming on 17. It feels good to contribute and declare in the morning. Very respectfully, Milo. Thanks, Milo.

Adam, congratulations on your spiritual awakening. Since it commenced, there's a noticeable joyfulness in your voice and a bounce in your attitude. John, what the hell are you waiting for? You guys kept me sane during the scamdemic and now as we hurtle into the bird flu plandemic and the maelstrom of election lies I'm counting on you to spill the tea and hit me to the latest sleaze and subterfuge that is life that in the remnants of America. God bless you both, keep doing what you're doing and have a listen to that Larry show. You just might dig it.

Global Producer Contributions, Eli the Coffee Guy and Portuguese Courts

Donations arrive from a wide range of listeners, including Eli the Coffee Guy, who promotes his Gigawatt Coffee Roasters business. A contribution from Sir Il Pope in Portugal mentions a court ruling regarding the inaccuracy of PCR tests. These segments demonstrate the global reach of the show and the various ways listeners integrate the "Value for Value" model into their personal and professional lives.

Linda Lou Patkin, Climate Special Production and Bingit.io

Linda Lou Patkin, the "Duchess of Jobs," is recognized for her ongoing support and her executive job search business. The hosts reflect on the intense labor required to produce their recent Climate Change Special, noting it took significantly longer than a standard live broadcast. They also credit Sir Deanonymous for his work on Bingit.io, an AI-powered search tool that allows listeners to find specific topics across the show's extensive archive.

1:40:07 the clip show of all our commentary, not clips, so it's not really a clip show, it's a commentary show, regarding climate change, which everybody thought was great. Everybody. I didn't hear one person that said anything negative about it. Despite that work and effort, and I should mention this, I've done these shows, I did the other one on climate change with clips. These shows take longer to produce than an actual show. Took me a full day. The shows, we start the show at 11, we end around 3 or so, West Coast time, 11 to 3-ish. That's including the after part of the shows, I guess we end the show around 2-3. I thought you were going to say the after party. That includes the after party. The after party.

1:40:55 which has a name, which eludes me. Anyway, so that two and a half hours, it's actually about three hours and 10 minutes for a show typically. It should be 2.45, but we overdo it. That is easier sitting here yacking away than it is to produce one of these clip shows. And the amount of income we get from it is nil. Well, we also want to thank Sir Deanonymous for his work on bingit.io. Now with AI you can easily make clips and find anything you're looking for in every single episode of the show, every single one. Before I wind this up, I do want to thank some people who sent some stuff to my PO box. I went to the PO box yesterday and it was this envelope and I had to open that and then open another envelope and another one and in it was a single index card.

1:41:44 with no note from who it came from and says, illegals are given a birth certificate and driver's license and then an arrow so I turn it over and says read 18 USC 611 C3 voting by aliens Thank you, I'm aware of that now. And I want to think... What? I know, it's one of those cryptic notes. No, but I mean what? What? They're giving them birth certificates and driver's licenses so they can vote? Apparently. 18 USC 611 C3. I know. Someone thought it was that important. I guess that's the idea. So that's the rig. There you go. Although they can't force them to vote one way or the other. Somebody has to make it clear to them they can vote for Trump. And Dame Nurse Caitlin and her brother Trey did a big cross-country road trip. We missed them, unfortunately, as they came through Fredericksburg.

Alien Voting Claims, Challenge Coins and Dana Brunetti's Collection

A cryptic note sent to the show's PO box claims that illegal aliens are being issued birth certificates and driver's licenses to facilitate voting under 18 USC 611. The hosts also discuss challenge coins received from listeners and compare their collections to those of Dana Brunetti and Glenn Beck. Brunetti is described as a highly organized archivist with a formidable collection of movie memorabilia, including a full Stormtrooper suit.

1:42:39 But they did go to the White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico as her brother had been stationed there. And they got me a challenge coin, which I appreciate. Beautiful. Oh, that's cool. Tina's like, not another challenge coin. Yeah, man, challenge coins are cool. I have a bunch of challenge. We got one of our producers I'm supposed to send him one of the old leftover challenge coins. And I have a cache of challenge coins lost in the house. Now I want to go back to Brunetti. You know he was um he has he has challenge coins he's an archivist just like me I didn't realize it he's got full you know the star wars that white guy whatever those guys are called those soldiers imperial guard the imperial he's got an a complete imperial guard suit in one of his collections Glenn Beck has that too Glenn Beck has one of those

1:43:31 I guess they were auctioning him off. I didn't ask him how he got it. He may have told me. He's got all kinds of stuff. He's a storm trooper, not a period. Storm troopers. Thank you. He's got a storm trooper suit that's standing there in one of his collections. But does he have like Glenn Beck, Dorothy's ruby red slippers? Come on now. No. And so, But he, believe me, he's got a formidable collection. He's also got cars, he's got all kinds of stuff. Wow. The fire truck. But the difference between his collection and mine is that he's a little more organized.

1:44:11 Which is somewhat annoying when you don't say He's more organized. And so it's like yeah, this is nuts. I mean if you could be that, you know, he's like built this property I said 44 because he's the pan did you know, but just barns and there's all kinds of places to store stuff Yeah, and it's like organized and it's really depressing. Yeah, but he has sex money, you know from that Fifty Shades movie. Oh Yeah, he's got sex money or whatever it is and that's true, but he's I think he does a lot of this himself here. I think he's oh Like a little autistic like well He doesn't show any signs of being autistic by any means, but I think he's a little he might be anal There you go. So he has What I have

1:45:00 No, he doesn't have Tourette's either. Oh, he should. He should try it. It's cool. He's just a neat freak, I guess. Great conversation starter.

Pete Buttigieg, Climate Change and Airline Turbulence

Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg appeared on CBS to link recent severe airline turbulence to climate change, claiming it has increased by 15% to 55%. He cited heat waves in the Pacific Northwest as a threat to transit infrastructure and urged passengers to keep seatbelts fastened. Critics argue that extreme turbulence remains rare and that Buttigieg is using weather events to push broader environmental policies.

pete buttigieg· climate change· turbulence· singapore airlines· department of transportation· flight attendants

1:45:53 Pete Buttigieg, which your buddy Andrew can't seem to pronounce his last name. No, he won't and he refuses to. Probably a good policy. Sat down for a long-form interview with CBS. And boy, is he dumb. And we're joined by the secretary of transportation, Pete Buttigieg. Good to have you here. Good to be here. Good to be here, Brolf. Actually, it just sounded just like that. Good to be here, Brolf. So let's get into it. Let's start right away with the climate change info. I also wonder when we see a forecast like we just did from NOAA that we're going to have a more severe hurricane season this summer.

1:46:31 what you were thinking and planning for. Do you need to change regulation because of more severe turbulence as well? The reality is the effects of climate change are already upon us in terms of our transportation. We've seen that in the form of everything from heat waves that shouldn't statistically even be possible. OK, first of all, write this down, people. This should be the worst hurricane season ever. Write it down. Write it down. It might be, but it probably won't be whenever they say worst ever. And now he's saying heat waves that should statistically not even be possible? What does that mean? Have you seen these reports? Statistically, it could never be this hot. I mean, that's exactly what they're saying.

1:47:18 It's like the hottest year on record, climate change. I don't know what he's even talking about. He's dumb. In the form of everything from heat waves that shouldn't statistically even be possible, threatening to melt the cables of transit systems in the... It's melting the cables of transit systems. Pacific Northwest to, as you mentioned, hurricane season. Pacific Northwest, really? Mm-hmm. In Seattle. It's raining as we speak. Threatening to melt the cables of transit systems in the Pacific Northwest to, as you mentioned, hurricane season. Hold on a second. I have a place up there. Yeah, you do. And if I'm not there, I'm getting daily reports. None of this is going on. It's been crappy. It's been cold. Yeah.

1:48:05 Yeah, boots on the ground. It's not true. He's lying. Hurricane season's becoming more and more extreme and indications that turbulence is up by about 15. Hold on, stop. I'm never going to get through these. Well, I'll back off. Isn't he the head of the Department of Transportation? What has he got to do or know about climate change? Well, it affects his business. Oh yeah. Yeah, exactly. It's all because it affects transportation. What am I thinking? Coming more and more extreme and indications that turbulence is up by about 15%. That means... Hello, it's 55, Pete. It's 55 from 0.1 to 0.15. Indications that turbulence is up by about 15%. That means... Hold on, is that right?

1:48:58 He's so he's he get it wrong from one to one point one point one point five. Yeah, so he thinks that means 15 percent He's the number is 55 percent But for some reason he says 15 because either he's confused, he heard it wrong in the briefing, or he's dumb. Indications that turbulence is up by about 15%. That means assessing anything and everything that we can do about it. Here in the US? Well, in the atmosphere generally, but certainly something that will affect American travelers, whether here or abroad. Oh, let's dig into that, Pete. So you said that that

1:49:34 That horrific video that people were terrified by when they saw the Singapore Airlines encounter such severe turbulence. That's happening daily. That was rare. But you're saying you do expect to see more incidents like that here in the US? To be clear, something that extreme is very rare. But turbulence can happen and sometimes it can happen unexpectedly. Turbulence happens. That's one of the reasons why you may notice compared to years ago. It's when you fly into a thunderstorm, that's exactly what the Singapore Airlines aircraft did. More often you'll hear the captain or the flight attendants ask you to keep your seatbelt on even if the light isn't saying that you're required to keep your seatbelt on. And again, this is something that has to continually evolve.

1:50:20 Our climate is evolving. Our policies and our technology and our infrastructure have to evolve accordingly too. Oh brother. Keep your seatbelt on people. That's the safest. If you don't keep your seatbelt on at all times. Yeah, you take a risk when you're going to the lavatory. But really it's the poor flight attendants. They're the ones most at risk. He didn't even say that. You know, those brave flight attendants who are always— That's what he should have said, brave. Yeah, brave. They are brave. I was talking to Dame Christina Pearl flew into San Antonio. She works at Southwest Airlines. She came to visit us yesterday. Do you know what—because I said, you know, she worked for 29 years at Southwest. Do you know that—she told me that

Boeing Safety Concerns, Whistleblowers and Margaret Brennan

Boeing reported a 500% increase in employee safety submissions during the first two months of 2024 following several high-profile incidents. Secretary Pete Buttigieg and CBS's Margaret Brennan discussed the "encouraging" aspect of a "see something, say something" culture within the company. The FAA has halted Boeing's production increases until safety demonstrations are completed, reflecting intense scrutiny of the manufacturer's quality control.

boeing· faa· whistleblowers· margaret brennan· aviation safety· door plug

1:51:00 What do you think the most annoying thing is that people do to the flight attendants? They keep ringing a bell. No, they poke her. They poke her? Yeah, miss, miss, miss. And they can't even do that in a strip club and get away with it. That's exactly what she said. She says you can't even touch strippers. That's exactly what she said. They poke her. They're poking the flight attendants. Miss, miss, miss. People are insane. That's crazy. Stop poking your flight attendant. On Friday, Boeing released a report that said they saw a 500% increase in the number of employee submissions about safety concerns during the first two months of 2024. This is, of course, after all these high profile incidents that happened with that plane door just flying off.

1:51:51 Okay, it's good employees are... Climate change! I like that! It was a door plug, okay, but the plane door flying off sounds better. Plane door just flying off. Okay, it's good employees are seeing something and saying something, but a 500% increase? I mean that would... Notice how she sets him up. It's good that they're seeing something and saying something. Okay, it's good employees are seeing something and saying something, but a 500% increase, I mean, that would suggest that there are actual issues. You have to stop this again. Now I have to see some background. Who is this woman? This is a CBS woman who works for CBS. She's that woman. Is it Nora? That thing is Nora, yeah.

1:52:34 Why? Why do you inquire and stop the cliff? Because I like to know what idiot it is that's talking to him. Okay, well she's setting him up. Okay, it's good employees are seeing something and saying something, but a 500% increase, I mean that would suggest that there are actual issues here. I'm sorry, it's Margaret Brennan. Margaret Brennan. Oh, worse. Thank you, Cliff Custodian. That's right. By the way, I should mention that Margaret Brennan, during COVID, she was working out of her house and somebody visited visited or put her on a zoom call or something and she hadn't she wasn't wearing her makeup and she had a hair thing of the hairband every she's a dead ringer for Hillary a young Hillary really

1:53:15 Yeah, I was actually shocked by the fact that she looks so much like Hillary. That's right. There's an encouraging part and a concerning part. The encouraging part is we want Boeing and any producer in the aviation space to have a culture of if you see something, say something. There it is! No! There it is! If you see something, say something! For reporting work, we have both whistleblower mechanisms to let us know something directly at the FAA, but in a healthy company that should also be happening with the company. Were they discouraging it earlier? If there were evidence of that, that would lead to direct action. I'm not here to make an accusation like that at this time. What I will say is we want to see a culture where that kind of record, if anything, we want you to err on the side.

1:53:59 of reporting. So that's the encouraging part. The concerning part, of course, is that any of those issues are happening at all. And that's why Boeing is under a huge amount of scrutiny right now, including from the FAA. The administrator took the extraordinary step of saying that Boeing cannot increase their production until they've demonstrated that they can do it safely. My goodness, Pete. All right, it gets better here because now we're going to go into the phony baloney EV hype. Thank you, Elon Musk, for making everybody believe that this is the way of the future. I want to ask you about something that we hear quite a lot about on the campaign trail, and that is electric cars, electric vehicles.

CHAPTER 35 / 57 Discussion

Electric Vehicle Subsidies, Chinese Batteries and BYD

The debate over electric vehicles intensifies as Donald Trump criticizes the Biden administration's push for 56% EV market share by 2032. While Biden promotes "made in America" EVs, critics point out that China, led by companies like BYD, currently dominates battery technology and cheap EV manufacturing. The discussion covers the challenges of EV adoption, including high costs and the lack of a robust charging network.

electric vehicles· ev subsidies· donald trump· joe biden· byd· china· battery technology

1:54:39 Donald Trump repeatedly talks about President Biden's decision to force the industry towards making 56% of car batteries electric by 2032, 13% hybrid. Listen to what he said in New Jersey recently. Do you notice he's trying to save the electrical vehicle but not the gas powered, which is the vehicle that everybody wants. They're going crazy with the electric car, costing us a fortune. We're spending hundreds of billions of dollars subsidizing a car that nobody wants and nobody's ever gonna buy. He's not wrong. He's not wrong. He's not wrong on the purchasing. He's not. Of the four million vehicles purchased, you know. What was that laugh about? He's not wrong.

1:55:21 made again. Weirdo. He's not wrong. Oh, he's on the purchasing. He's not. Oh, he says he's not. He's not wrong. He's not. He's wrong. He's wrong. He's not wrong. Oh, he's on the purchasing. He's not of the 4 million vehicles purchased. You know what? 269,000 electric vehicles were sold in the U.S. market. It's up Every single year, more Americans buy EVs than the year prior. But why are we seeing it move more quickly? Every single year. Because the old ones are useless and they've got to throw them out and buy a new one. More Americans buy EVs than the year prior. There are two things that I think are needed for that to happen even more quickly. One is the price, which is why the Inflation Reduction Act acted to cut the price of an electric vehicle. The second is making sure we have the charging network we need across America, even though most EV owners will do most of their charging at home.

1:56:08 If you live in an apartment building or you're driving long distances, you need other options in those chargers. So that's exactly what we're working on. Uh-huh. All right. Let's get to the bigger people. They've been pushing people into apartments, which is part of this agenda. Yeah. Is to get a single get rid of single homes, single family homes, single family dwellings. Let's get correct phrase and move people into apartments and or tiny homes in the woods. Any of those things don't have the option of having a charger. The other thing is if you even have a home, the insurance companies don't want you putting the car in the garage to charge it because it'll blow up the house. So everything is off. Yep, that's true. But I want to talk about the bigger point here.

1:57:00 And I take this very personally because I grew up in the industrial Midwest, literally in the shadow of broken down factories from car companies that did not survive into the turn of the century because they didn't keep up with the times. And many of those auto workers are concerned electric vehicles require fewer humans to manufacture. The most important thing is that the EV revolution will happen. Screw the people! With or without us and we've got to make sure that it's American led. Oh yeah, it won't be. It can't be American. The Chinese, I don't have any clips, but the Chinese are developing, they're so far ahead in developing cheap batteries that don't necessarily blow up, but they probably do. But they still have the best, they're owning the battery technology no matter what anybody wants to believe.

1:57:47 We don't want China to lose. And so they're going to be making the cheap electric. These cars are still a bad idea. Thank you. And that's what the president is focused on. We don't want China, look, under the Trump administration, they allowed China to build an advantage in the EV industry. under President Biden's leadership, we're making sure that the EV revolution will be a made in America EV revolution. That is critically important. Hold on a second. This is another, this is a lie. Trump is, as you heard, you already played a Trump clip on that. He's against this to an extreme. He's not letting the Chinese take over. In fact, he's the one that's complained and Biden never has about BYD, probably one of the biggest

1:58:30 names in electric vehicles right now worldwide and they're already made inroads into Europe building cars in Mexico and then taking advantage of the of the new version of NAFTA to bring the cars into the US without tariffs and Trump has complained about that bitterly. Yeah, then the BYDs, to me, I mean I've seen some reviews, they're kind of like glorified golf carts. They're fast. No, no, that's not true. I don't know what reviews you've been seeing, but they make a huge range of vehicles. Yes. If you go, there's plenty of YouTube videos showing some pretty hot cars. Oh, so hot. No, seriously. I've seen the YouTube videos. The ones that are the small... BYD makes a couple of pretty phenomenal cars. Yeah, those are the high-end ones. I should get a clip of it. Please do. Are you promoting Chinese vehicles? This should be a Made in America show. What's wrong with you?

CHAPTER 36 / 57 Discussion

1950s Car Culture, Friend-Shoring and Manufacturing Speed

A nostalgic look at 1950s American car culture contrasts the era's bench seats and "necker knobs" with modern, utilitarian EV designs. The hosts discuss the concept of "friend-shoring"—sourcing materials from allied nations—as a new buzzword in the Biden administration's industrial policy. They also marvel at the speed of Chinese automotive design, which can bring a new car to market in just one year.

car culture· 1950s· friend-shoring· manufacturing· bench seats· necker knobs

1:59:25 I will say this, I was watching this one video about these Chinese cars and they say, and these Chinese, they're unbelievable. They can turn around a design and bring out a new car in a year. And I'm thinking, does anybody remember America in the 1950s? Yeah, listen, this is part of our, this is a very, let me explain something. Everyone needs to understand this. The cars of the 1950s, 60s, the muscle cars of the 70s. This is when our birth weight rate was higher, high enough. Now we're at 1.6 children because people are driving these cars and no one wants to have sex with someone who's driving a BYD golf cart. Well that may be, you're changing the subject. Yeah, thank you. But you're probably right. Back then we had sex because we made babies!

2:00:15 We made babies, I'm telling you. We used to have bench seating on these cars. Yes! We used to have big babies. So the girl could sit right next to you at the drive-in and you put your arm around her and you steam up the windows at the drive-in theater. We had necker knobs. Remember we had necker knobs? And the back seats were perfect for sex. We had necker knobs. Remember those? The necker knob? I don't know what that is. That was the knob on the steering wheel so you could you could hold on to your girl in the front seat. Oh they were called suicide knobs in this country. My mom who was from this country called it the necker knob. Yeah. They were called suicide knobs. I actually yeah, well, but we had a car with one but my mom used it for other purposes God bless you mom President Biden says he's gonna also just make sure that we're at best woman America's capacity making sure that we are on shoring or friend sourcing the French or in the Materials and the process goes into these TVs making sure that America for ensuring French Isn't that great?

2:01:13 Sounds like French kissing, friend-shoring. But also he stumbles here, listen carefully. President Biden says he's going to roll back. Also just making sure we invest in America's capacity, making sure that we are on-shoring or friend-sourcing the... He says first he's friend-sourcing, I mean friend-shoring because that's the new word. Friend-sourcing, i.e. getting stuff from our friends, I don't know, China. Now we call it friend-shoring. That's a possible show title. So that's interesting that he would switch gears like that because he knows he wasn't using the proper word. It's like a pronoun. Yeah. And so he changed. So he said friend sourcing, not fully aware. Then he said, switch it to friend shoring because that's the new term.

2:01:56 which is a show title if ever there was. I'm with you. Biden says he's going to roll. Also just making sure we invest in America's capacity, making sure that we are on. Our capacity is the capacity to friendshore. Shoring or friend sourcing the, uh, friend shoring the materials and the processing of what goes into these EVs, making sure that America masters. I'm sorry to do this again. People hate it when I do this too much. He says it right. Then he says it wrong. Then he says it right again. as Biden says he's going to roll out.

2:02:35 Look, there's no way that we're going to get to the middle of this century with the technology that we counted on a century ago. Now, there are obviously a lot of voices here in Washington who are interested in keeping the status quo. He says it's going to be one of the first things he does. Would be happy to see Americans trapped with dirty and expensive fuels. But the reality and I know he's made a lot of promises to the oil. Did he say dirty and expensive or inexpensive? He had to, well, play it back. And by the way, I'm making fun of Mayor Pete here and obviously, I mean, he's just a man of flesh and blood. The real issue here is, of course, Satan's flaming wheels. Last clip. Let me ask you about a portion of this that I think does fall under your portfolio, and that's the charging stations you mentioned. The Federal Highway Administration says only seven or eight charging stations have been produced with a 7.5 billion investment that taxpayers made back in 2021. Why isn't that happening more quickly?

CHAPTER 37 / 57 Discussion

EV Charging Infrastructure, Copper Theft and Vandalism

Despite a $7.5 billion federal investment, only a handful of EV charging stations have been built since 2021. In cities like Vallejo and Minneapolis, existing chargers are being targeted by thieves who cut the heavy cables to steal the copper inside. The cost of repairing these stations far exceeds the scrap value of the copper, creating a significant hurdle for the national charging network's reliability.

2:01:56 which is a show title if ever there was. I'm with you. Biden says he's going to roll. Also just making sure we invest in America's capacity, making sure that we are on.

Now, there are obviously a lot of voices here in Washington who are interested in keeping the status quo. He says it's going to be one of the first things he does.

The Federal Highway Administration says only seven or eight charging stations have been produced with a 7.5 billion investment that taxpayers made back in 2021. Why isn't that happening more quickly?

2:03:59 So the president's goal is to have half a million chargers up by the end of this decade. Now, in order to do a charger, it's more than just plunking a small device into the ground. There's utility work. And this is also really a new category of federal investment. But we've been working with each of the 50 states. Every one of them is getting formula dollars to do this work. Seven or eight, though? Engaging them. And the first handful, again, by 2030, 500,000 chargers. And the very first handful of chargers are now already being physically built. It's indeed a handful. It's just a handful of chargers. It's pathetic. They lied. And by the way, these charging stations, which are few and far between, except in some places where they're at some grocery store or something where there's some turnover. But generally speaking, if it's in the middle of nowhere, like on the way to, say, Los Angeles, you're going to drive to L.A. from San Francisco and you have to stop somewhere because you're not going to make it.

2:04:54 Especially if you gun it You're not gonna make it so get to put there's the lines are hours long hours long. It's like the 70s. Oh Yay, there you go. There's a 70s throwback well in San Francisco the charging stations are kind of available It's a disturbing trend thieves targeting high-powered Tesla's and other EB charging stations and stealing heavy cable for the copper metal inside. NBC Bay Area's Tom Jensen is in Vallejo tonight where someone cut cables from nine charging stations leaving Tesla drivers in a bind and causing tens of thousands of dollars in damage and repair costs. So that should have been the question how are you gonna protect those charging stations from being ripped off of the copper

2:05:37 copper charging cords. Yeah there's probably a couple of hundred bucks or maybe even more worth of copper in there and you got people that are homeless and you're not doing anything about them while you're giving the newcomers a free birth certificate and whatever else they want. And a driver's license. And a driver's license so they can vote Democrat and so you meanwhile you got this going on. This is a catastrophe. Do you want to hear the longer report about this from Minneapolis? Do I? Well, that's why I asked you. How long is it? A minute thirty. That's fine. That's why I haven't picked anything up yet. From stripping down air conditioning units. I couldn't believe somebody would do this to a veterans organization. It was just unbelievable. To leaving streets in the dark. I don't feel safe because I can't even see myself. Copper thieves are now also leaving electric vehicle drivers in a lurch.

2:06:33 These cables at an EV spot network charger in South Minneapolis have been cut, replaced and cut again. There's not even that much copper inside one of these charging cables because of all of the insulation. You need a pound of it just to make a couple bucks or less at the scrapyard. Meanwhile, replacing these cables costs thousands of dollars. The city of Minneapolis says they've replaced at least 44 charging cables and have another 20 or so to go. That's frustrating for everybody. Our Car, which operates the EV car share program across the Twin Cities, says some drivers are getting frustrated looking for a working charger. There are also other challenges as far as...

2:07:10 materials in a timely manner, weather conditions and things like that. So it's not always possible to replace these cables, you know, within the same week that they were stolen in an effort to deter thieves. The city is adding cameras, signage and making sure recycling centers are on the lookout for signage. Don't steal the copper Due to the international issue, there has not been a single solution that has, you know, been effective. How about a guy with a gun? Effective at 100 percent, so we're still trying to look at multiple factors to see if together they can overall make a larger impact. In Minneapolis, Kirsten Mitchell, WCCO News. So, there you go, Mayor Pete, deal with it. He's got billions of dollars, just put a guard next to him. It's so effective.

2:07:56 Cheap and effective, much cheaper than those dirty fossil fuels. Police! How long will people keep this psyop going? By the way, who was it who told me someone who I know from here, their brother works somewhere, oh it was, I can't remember. Goodness gracious, I'm forgetting now. But someone who does... Oh! I think it was maybe... I won't mention who it was, but now I do remember. And he has... They do like fertilizer and stuff, but also clear out debris for grass fields. And this is in Florida, I believe. There's huge lots where there's nothing but new unsold Teslas are just parked.

CHAPTER 38 / 57 Discussion

Unsold Tesla Inventory, HOA Grill Bans and Insurance Risks

Reports indicate large lots of unsold Teslas are accumulating across the U.S., mirroring similar inventory gluts in China. Meanwhile, insurance companies are pressuring Homeowners Associations (HOAs) in mountain regions to ban gas grills and open flames due to fire risks. This move by insurers to reduce liability is causing friction in communities where outdoor grilling is a central part of the lifestyle.

And this is in Florida, I believe. There's huge lots where there's nothing but new unsold Teslas are just parked.

2:08:45 This is in China too. BYD cars and others. There's huge lots of unsold cars. Yeah, but in America, Merca. Yeah, I've heard about this. We just keep pouring money into it. There are a bunch of, yeah, and a lot of those are cars that have a flaw or something. I don't think it's easy to fix. All of them have a flaw. Yeah, they're electric. Yeah, exactly. Now you mentioned the insurance companies don't actually want you charging your electric vehicle in your home because, you know, they tend to blow up from time to time.

2:09:21 Listen to this report. What's better than a summer cookout? It's part of our Colorado way of life. When you start talking about somebody's grill, it's like you're talking about their children or their dog. You know, they're very emotionally tied to it. But Nick Strong, a Steamboat Springs commercial risk manager, is in the process of telling HOAs in the mountains they will soon have to either ban gas grills from their properties or lose their insurance coverage. You will need to get rid of all open flame devices, including grills, fire pits, etc. And I understand, I'm a homeowner, you know, I have a grill. So these changes impact all of us. The insurance industry says nationally outdoor grills cause 6,000 fires and $35 million in damage every year.

2:10:10 Farmers insurance alone says grill fires cost them $32 million in losses since 2020 and insurers no longer have an appetite for the risk. Try telling somebody in Winter Park they can't have a gas grill. Well, I have to. David Furman's law firm represents more than 2,000 HOAs. In the last six months, he's been rewriting rules for dozens of HOA communities in the mountains to ban gas grills on decks and balconies so the HOAs can keep their insurance. The perceived risk with these grills

2:10:47 It's just, it's an unacceptable risk to the insurance companies that are losing billions and billions of dollars. Oh, they're losing money, these insurance companies. He'll rewrite rules for another 600 mountain HOAs, prohibiting gas grills. These insurance companies, they have to be stopped and no one in Washington ever does anything. Every state has an insurance commissioner and they have people that can do this. They do nothing. They're captured, they're bought off by the insurance companies. This is a scandal that nobody wants to address. We have to. Our home insurance went up 30%. And why is there an HOA in the mountains? What was that all about? Homeowners associations are no good. I'm down with that. We live on this like there's 12 homes. It's not gated but there's a...

2:11:43 There's a road and two cul-de-sacs basically, and it was built. And we know the guy, Larry, he's a friend of ours who built it all. He still owns the roads and he keeps saying, hey, you know, I'll sell it to you for $1, but you got to start an HOA. And we're all looking at each other like, nope, I'm good to go, man. Nobody wants to be an HOA. Nope, that's fine. You can keep our roads. It's horrible. What? What is his interest, this guy? He built some roads, okay, good for him, but what's his interest in the HOA? No, you misunderstand. He built this whole 12-home development. It's right off, it's not far from Main Street. So he had all the land, he parceled it all, and then sold the sites for people to build on. And with that, he put in roads,

2:12:37 As you would do if you're putting together a subdivision. It's a subdivision, exactly. And then, you know, so everyone bought the parcels from him and he's now left with the roads. And he doesn't want the road because eventually he's going to have to maintain the road. And he's like, well, I'll sell you the roads and everything to an HOA for $1. And we're like, no, no, we don't want to do an HOA. That's how he could just he could walk. He can abandon the roads if he doesn't want to maintain them. Just say I'm done, but he's Larry. He's not. What's his obligation to the roads? This is sounds like bullshit to me. He's Larry. He doesn't want to be persona non grata if he doesn't take care of the road that he built. It's unimportant. The point was nobody wants to do an HOA because we're not stupid. It's horrible. That's how you that's the way you get in fights with your neighbor.

Joe Biden Campaign, Robert De Niro and Political Ads

The Biden campaign deployed actor Robert De Niro as a surrogate outside the Trump courthouse, where he labeled the former president a "gangster." De Niro also featured in a new campaign ad, narrated by himself, which used controversial "bloodbath" and "dictator" rhetoric. The hosts contrast Biden's campaign events in Philadelphia with Trump's outreach, characterizing the former's tactics as pandering.

joe biden· robert de niro· philadelphia· political ads· joy reid· campaign surrogates

2:15:53 What the hell is he talking about? He was speaking in front of black people in Philadelphia saying that Donald Trump is... Democrats never do anything like that. He's literally in front of black people in Philadelphia and saying Donald Trump is pandering. Yeah, it's really hilarious. I'll just... it's five seconds. Yeah, play it. Please play it. I have two six seconds clips. Here we go. A memorial day, I proudly stood with a black man. That's not pandering. That's not pandering. And here's his pandering. I've shown you who I am and Trump has shown you who he is. And today Donald Trump is pandering and peddling lies and stereotypes. But I stood him next to a black man. Look at me, I'm Joe Biden. Standing next to a black man. Black man's with me. I didn't touch him, but I stood next to him. Yeah, but Donald Trump is pandering.

2:16:46 Gosh, this is something the next step is Trump trial to Meanwhile President Biden on Wednesday attacked from at a Philadelphia campaign event And the White House would not confirm recent reporting that Biden will speak from the White House about the upcoming verdict and that says the Biden campaign on Tuesday sent surrogates into right outside the Trump courthouse to hold a surprise press conference, a move that Trump on Wednesday said was to influence the trial. Now, the surrogates, before we move on, was super interesting because the main surrogate who literally went onto the streets of New York City was Robert De Niro. I'm sure everybody saw the clips of him yelling at back and forth and calling Trump a gangster. I just want to say, De Niro, taxi driver, I mean, the guy was cool. He was a cool guy. It was like he did these awesome movies and it all turned, and I remember exactly when it changed,

2:17:45 He has a son who's autistic and he was running the Tribeca Film Festival, if you remember, and he had a documentary about his kid being vaccine injured. And he had it in the film, he did an interview about it, I could probably dig the clip up but I won't. And then he got some message and was like uh uh uh uh uh. And from that day on he's just become a complete controlled nincompoop. I think they got pictures or something. For Robert De Niro to go down and be on the street telling everybody that Trump is no good, and then if you don't mind, if you indulge me, 33 seconds because I think everybody saw him yelling on the street. But this, which is, I mean, it's amazing what they've done. This is an election ad that he's in and Joy Reid played it, a little intro from her.

2:18:45 And the lies are apparent. This is what the Democrats, Joe Biden, they have an ad out featuring the great Robert De Niro. Let's play that. From midnight tweets to drinking bleach to tear gassing citizens and staging a photo op. We knew Trump was out of control when he was president. Then he lost the 2020 election and snapped. Desperately trying to hold on to power, now he's running again. This time threatening to be a dictator to terminate the Constitution. If I don't get elected, it's gonna be a bloodbath. Trump wants revenge and he'll stop at nothing to get it. Bleach, dictator, bloodbath, all lies, all out of context. That's pathetic. It really is.

CHAPTER 41 / 57 Discussion

Robert De Niro, Vaxxed Documentary and Tribeca Film Festival

A look back at 2016 reveals that Robert De Niro initially supported the screening of the controversial documentary "Vaxxed" at the Tribeca Film Festival before abruptly pulling it. De Niro, who has an autistic child, cited conversations with "experts" for the decision. The hosts suggest this moment marked a turning point in De Niro's public persona and his alignment with mainstream political and medical narratives.

2:19:34 And the Robert De Niro who just used to be cool. He just was. We all wanted to be De Niro, Raging Bull. And then he's just... I feel sorry for him. It's interesting you trace it to that era when he was accusing the vaccine makers for his kids' autism. And then he switched and it did something happened. It just kind of came to me that that that's when here You know what do you mind if I just play the clip here? It's 44 seconds me. No, I don't know why you keep asking me if I mind because

2:20:10 Because I respect you. I'm not touchy today. I just didn't have my coffee. This is from 2016, March 31st on your No Agenda Show. Actor Robert De Niro has reversed course in a highly controversial documentary film. His prestigious Tribeca Film Festival will no longer feature a film called Vaxxed, which makes the debunked claim that vaccines cause autism. NBC's Kate Snow explains the rare change of heart. After fierce criticism from the scientific community, acting legend Robert De Niro and the Tribeca Festival made the unprecedented decision to pull the film. We were delighted because this was a film that purported and a discredited concept. De Niro, who has a child with autism, said after conversations with experts, they concluded, we do not believe it contributes to or furthers the discussion I had hoped for. 2016, right when Trump came in,

Ursula von der Leyen, Pre-Bunking and Information Manipulation

EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen introduced the concept of "pre-bunking" as a way to build "societal immunity" against information manipulation. She compared the technique to a vaccine, suggesting that the government should inoculate the public against certain ideas before they take hold. Critics argue that "pre-bunking" is simply a new term for state-sponsored propaganda and the suppression of dissenting views.

ursula von der leyen· european union· pre-bunking· disinformation· propaganda· vaccination metaphor

2:21:07 Boom he's done. You're done De Niro big flowers. That's a very interesting catch well since you brought this up I hate to keep roaming off like a shaggy dog strong and roll baby, but let's Since they use the term debunked which it never has fully been debunked we have to listen to your buddy Von der Leyen? Ah, Queen Ursula! As technology evolves, we need to build up societal immunity around information manipulation. Because research has shown that pre-bunking is much more successful than debunking. Has she... has she talked about pre-bunking before?

2:21:55 The whole concept of pre-bunking is bullshit. Let's play clip 2. Pre-bunking is basically the opposite of debunking. In short, prevention is preferable to cure. Perhaps if you think of information manipulation as a virus. Instead of treating an infection, once it has taken hold, That is debunking. It is much better to vaccinate so that the body is inoculated. Pre-bunking is the same approach. Because disinformation relies on people passing it on to others. It is essential that people know what malign information's influence is and what the techniques are that are behind it. And as the knowledge goes up,

2:22:42 Our chances of being influenced goes down. And that builds up the society resilience that we will need. So pre-bunking is basically propaganda? Ah, you nailed it. That's exactly what it is. So you have to propagandize people. I think at the beginning of the show you mentioned that this is the age of revealment. I think these guys know that. And they're freaked out. And so they come up with these stupid concepts like pre-bunking. You can't pre-bunk something. It's impossible because you don't know what the hell's... If you're bullshitting the public, you don't know what they're gonna pick up on.

2:23:24 that you can pre-bunk it and how does that work? You say, well, you know, I'm gonna tell you something right now, but let me tell you first what you're gonna think and then here's why you shouldn't think that way and now I'm gonna tell you. It's just. It's idiotic, but this is what's going on. The fact that she is just coming out and saying this and comparing it to an inoculation of vaccination so you get the lie. What she's saying here is we're going to inject our version of the truth into you so you don't get the truth. Exactly. That's what it is. That's as close as you can get. It's a spike protein of truth.

CHAPTER 43 / 57 Discussion

Appeal to Heaven Flag, Justice Alito and Flag Code

Justice Samuel Alito faced calls for recusal after the "Appeal to Heaven" (pine tree) flag was seen flying at his vacation home. Alito clarified in a letter to Congress that his wife, Martha Ann, flew the flag and that he was unaware of its modern political associations. The flag, which dates back to the American Revolution and the writings of John Locke, has recently been characterized by critics as a symbol of Christian nationalism.

samuel alito· pine tree flag· appeal to heaven· john locke· flag code· supreme court

2:24:02 It's crazy that they would come up with something like this, but she thinks she's so smart. She is an idiot. This woman who's never been elected to any office ever anywhere running the show in the EU? How does that happen? I'm gonna give you a clip of the day for that. Thanks for that. And here's an example, you know the pine tree flag which is remarkable. I've been reading a lot about the pine tree flag. George Washington flew the pine tree flag, the appeal to heaven flag as it's also known,

2:24:39 Which is like, okay. But actually, do you know where this came from, this appeal to heaven flag? I do not. So it comes from a paragraph from John Locke who wrote it in the mid 1600s. And where the body of the people or any single man is derived of their right or is under the exercise of a power without right and have no appeal on earth, then they have a liberty to appeal to heaven. That's it. That's what it's about. But Wikipedia, on Wednesday, it was just a flag. On Friday, it's a symbol of Christian nationalism and right-wing extremism. And you know why that is? Trump!

2:25:24 No. Okay. It's not because of Trump in this case. Well, I mean, Trump is at the base of everything. It's Alito. They want Alito to repeat. It's Alito. I actually have a clip. I have a clip. I have a clip. Hold on a second. Where is, um, here it is. Before you play the clip, as you're looking for the clip, I will say that Alito's wife hoisted that flag in their beach house or something and somebody took a picture of it some time ago and the right wingers and I have I will have a clip I have a great series of clips I didn't do because I just didn't have time I got too many clips already and they're gonna get played but the the right the left wing really doesn't want Alito chiming in on the Chevron deference when they finally come to the conclusion is one way or the other

2:26:10 He's one of the two guys along with Clarence Thomas that they know are going to say this is no good, we got to rethink this. Today, Justice Samuel Alito told Congress he will not recuse himself. In a letter to lawmakers, Alito wrote that he was not involved in the decisions to fly either of the flags at issue and that both were raised by his wife Martha Ann, adding, my wife is fond of flying flags, I am not. Alito adding today, But some legal experts say Justice Alito has a responsibility to appear impartial, and that flag may have compromised him in the January 6th cases. Alito explained that his wife flew all kinds of flags at the beach house. Team flags, college flags, patriotic flags, and more, adding, I was not familiar with the appeal to heaven flag when my wife flew it. I was not aware of any connection between that historic flag and the stop the steal movement, and neither was my wife.

2:27:20 So, it's an out for him personally. I think he's weak. He should have said, I stand with my wife. I don't think that's cool that he just, he kind of like, yeah, my wife did it. Crazy. But the- I agree with that. The outrage. of people over this flag controversy and the fact that the Washington Post knew about it and didn't report on it. Oh no, shame on them. So the Washington Post has big opinion. What more need Alito do before Durbin gets off the stick? One wonders what more Supreme Court Justice Samuel A Alito Jr. need to do to defile the court's reputation before Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Senator Dick Durbin will do something more than issue a terse tweet or letter. I mean, so they're saying that, oh, there wasn't just one flag, a second flag story?

2:28:17 Oh no, he must recuse himself from everything that has to do with anything that's patriotic or American. Come on people. By the way, here's the rules on the, here's the flag, upside down flag law. This is from the US flag code. The US flag code, which is not legally enforceable, specifically says that the flag is not to be inverted except as a signal of dire distress in instance of extreme danger to life or property. Well, I think that's open to interpretation. And there's a call now for people to fly the American flag upside down on July 4th. I get it. I'm going to get me an appeal to heaven flag. You bet.

CHAPTER 45 / 57 Discussion

Alan Dershowitz, Jury Deadlock and Alternate Jurors

On his "Dersh Cast," Alan Dershowitz speculated on a "cynical" scenario where Judge Merchan might replace a deadlocked juror with an alternate. Dershowitz suggests that if a single juror refuses to convict, the judge could claim they are "violating their oath" by not deliberating and substitute them to achieve a unanimous verdict. This theory underscores the perceived bias of the court against Donald Trump.

alan dershowitz· dersh cast· jury deadlock· alternate jurors· judge merchan· legal speculation

2:32:06 Yeah, this judge is a piece of work. Oh this judge is nuts But but the thing that about that clip and the other ones which we're not gonna play is that it seems as though NTD of all the channels and networks I've listened to especially compared to PBS None of these guys do a very good job of telling us what's going on. Trump's guilty. He's got to go. Go Trump. I have an interesting analysis from Alan Dershowitz, from the Dersh cast. Oh, from the Dersh cast? Yes, from the Dersh cast. Very interesting analysis. Here it comes. The judge said he's not going to dismiss the alternate jurors until there's an absolute verdict.

2:32:52 One possible reason for that, and again, I want to emphasize that I'm speculating. One possible reason for this might be following, and it's quite cynical. Let's assume that the jurors come back and say, sorry, we're deadlocked. We have one juror who just won't give in. There are 11 of us who think he's guilty. By the way, the jurors don't say what they think. They just say there's a deadlock. But if they come back that way, the inference will be that the jury is locked 11 to 1 in favor of conviction. So the judge hears from the jurors and the judge hears that they're 11 to 1. And then the judge says, well, is that other juror, the 12th juror, is he

2:33:41 Negotiating, is he involved in the conversations? And the foreman of the jury says, no, he's refusing. He's sitting there with his arms folded saying, guy's innocent, sorry, guy's innocent. I'm not gonna listen to you. The guy's innocent, there's no case here. The guy's innocent. If I were on the jury, that's what I'd be doing. And then the judge has the power, rarely, rarely exercised. But he has the power, I've seen it done, to say, well, if this juror won't deliberate, then he's violating his oath. And I'm gonna substitute one of the alternate jurors for that jury, and then immediately they come back with a 12 to nothing verdict of conviction. That's not beyond the realm of possibility. So anything's possible. This judge wants Donald Trump convicted.

CHAPTER 46 / 57 Discussion

Jill Biden on The View, Good vs Evil and Black Voters

First Lady Jill Biden appeared on "The View" to discuss the 2024 election, framing the choice for Americans as "good over evil." She dismissed negative polling data, expressing confidence that voters will choose her husband as they become more "educated" on the issues. The segment also touches on the "Black Voters for Harris-Biden" launch in Philadelphia, which was criticized for its low attendance and deceptive media framing.

jill biden· the view· 2024 election· black voters· campaign strategy· polling

2:34:36 Yeah, what's right what a system we have what by what is a juror a jurors? Juror has a new concept for me a juror. I have to play these two clips This is 10 seconds. This was the Biden pandering to black people in Philly. And before the events, which by the way, the way it was cut on the news was pretty deceptive because it wasn't as full as they made it look. It was a lot of empty seats in a relatively small, what looked like a high school gymnasium. Yeah, there was a couple of pictures online. You could see there was nobody there. Yeah.

2:35:12 This is how they announce the event. Hello everybody, my name is Lena Mayhem. Today I have the distinct honor of being here at the launch of Black Voters for Harris Biden with our President and Vice President. The launch of Black Voters for Harris Biden? Yeah, I heard that. Isn't that interesting? That's funny. And then Jill Biden on The View, she made an interesting little almost semi-gaff which I thought was worth discussing. I've raised alarm bells among other Republicans about the danger of a second Donald Trump term and I'm genuinely fearful for what that could look like. But consistently we're seeing poll after poll that are showing Trump beating your husband outside of the margin of error. When in fact last time in 2020 Joe Biden was beating him in nearly every poll.

2:36:02 Are you, how do you turn those numbers around with five months out and are you fearful of what a second Trump term could look like? Or a third as Donald Trump says. So we are going to meet people where they are. We're going to go to college campuses. We're going to go to just every state that we can get into. I've been traveling every single day. Joe has been traveling as much as he's as possible and we're not. Joe's been traveling as much as he's capable of. Every state that we can get into I've been traveling every single day. Joe has been traveling as much as he's as possible and we're not going to take anything for granted and those polls are going to turn. I'm confident of it because

2:36:46 As time goes on and as people start to focus a little bit more about what's at stake and start to become educated on the issues and the differences between the two men, I believe that Americans are going to choose good over evil. Yes. Yeah, I think they will. I think you're absolutely right. They will. They will. Good or evil. Related to that, I have a weird clip that I picked off of Michael Savage's podcast. Wait, is he the great one? No, no, that's Mark Levin. Oh, I'm sorry. Mark Levin! Hello, America! That's Mark Levin, different guy. Okay. It's the same guy. Michael Savage. It's the same guy, really. Well, Mark Levin hated Michael Savage. He'd always berate him. It was kind of ridiculous. But Michael, I...

CHAPTER 47 / 57 Discussion

Michael Savage, Fascism Rhetoric and DOJ Resentment

Radio host Michael Savage expressed a provocative desire for Donald Trump to "become a fascist" and arrest his political opponents if re-elected. Savage's comments reflect a deep-seated resentment among some voters toward the Department of Justice and its handling of January 6th defendants. The hosts discuss how this extreme rhetoric stems from a belief that the current administration has "destroyed the law" and traditional American institutions.

michael savage· donald trump· fascism· doj· january 6· political resentment

2:37:41 He expresses an opinion here and I was, I never heard this before. It takes a lot of guts to say what he says. And it's like, I wonder when I heard this, uh, it was, he went to Mar-a-Lago and he met with, you know, he just went there for somebody invited him there and he just like, kind of like Tina only he ended up talking to Trump a lot. Only Tina does a podcast instead of some stupid radio show. So, uh, he, uh, He expressed himself in such a way that I was thinking about this. I never thought about this, but I wonder if a lot of people aren't thinking this screwball way because everyone says, oh, Trump's going to be a dictator from day one. And they go on and on, which is bull crap.

2:38:30 What about this? Listen to this clip. And I hope he wins and I hope he gets even. I swear to you, from the bottom of my heart, I hope he becomes a fascist and arrests them all. I hope he throws them all into jail for what they've done to this country. They have destroyed the law. They've destroyed science. They've destroyed children. They've destroyed churches. They've destroyed everything good about America. These are the most evil

2:39:09 and the world has ever seen. Well Michael Savage can easily live on my street. So I never thought about this until he said it, which is, I wonder how many people, oh, he's going to be a fascist and a dictator from day one? Yeah, he's getting my vote. John, get out of commie-fornia for five minutes. This is exactly the conversation everywhere, particularly the Department of Justice, particularly DOJ, and not even because of what they're doing to Trump, what they're doing to the January 6th praying granny.

2:39:46 I mean, people have run-ins with the Department of Justice. They hate it. They hate what's happened. Oh yeah, this idea of hang them. But, and of course, as we saw the first time around, Trump is not going to come in and be your daddy and fix everything. Unfortunately, I think there's a lot of that. Oh, just wait until Trump gets in. No, because you can't just sit at your keyboard and say that. You got to go out and do something in your local community, change it there. You know, you are the change. But yes, oh yes, you know, drain the swamp. But this time for real, we'll see.

CHAPTER 48 / 57 Discussion

NYU Graduation, Liberal Arts Concentrations and Universal Basic Income

Graduating students at NYU viral video showcase highly specialized and abstract "concentrations," such as "the performance of self," "care politics," and "queering and decolonizing theater practice." The hosts argue that these degrees leave graduates "unhirable" in the traditional economy, potentially fueling the demand for Universal Basic Income (UBI). The segment critiques the modern university system for prioritizing social mechanisms over practical skills like engineering.

nyu· graduation· liberal arts· gender studies· ubi· unhirable· education

2:40:26 Yeah, well it's not going to happen, but I just am fascinated by this desire. People seem to be irked. John, it's... what you just heard from Savage, times a hundred. Times a hundred. Everybody is like... I'm more worried if Trump doesn't get elected. I still don't think it'll be, you know, civil war, but oh, people will really lose their crap if that happens. At this point, to save the republic, he has to be elected president or something. It will really, people will be beside themselves. Would you like to hear from a few Biden voters? I love the Biden voters. They're fascinating. These are the new young Biden voters. They are students at NYU.

2:41:22 And they have graduated. And I wasn't familiar with this term, I had to look it up. They talk about their concentration. Now I'm going to... presume that when you graduate from NYU you have a liberal arts degree and you're... Oh, I know what clip this is. I was gonna get this clip and I just, I just, it was overflow problem. So explain... Yeah, this is a great clip. Great clip. I'm gonna pre, I'm gonna pre, pre, pre-promote the clip. I'm gonna pre-bunk the clip. But wait, explain how the con... because they talk about their concentration. Can you explain this? Because I didn't

2:42:02 No, I can't and I'll tell you why because nobody nut when I went to school in the real era of education There was no such thing you you got a degree and a minor you got I got it my degree in history and a minor in chemistry for example you got your degree and in they did still have media studies and a couple of other things But no, no, this is this idea that they're expressing. My concentration is bull crap. My name is Jacob and my concentration is environmental science and sustainable business. Hi, my name is Lex and my concentration is the performance of self.

They'll have no jobs. They're unhirable. Who wants to hire any of these people? For what?

2:44:14 I have a my concentrations and isn't collective memory. Huh? I mean, come on now. No, if you actually I think if you wrote out everything those people said and put it like just a list of concentrations and whatever, you look at it and you go, my God, we're screwed. Yeah, but electrical engineering. Hello. Yeah, every day. I saw, of course, these things are selective, of course, you know, whoever recorded that. No, yeah, but that's what you do. That's what you do. Of course. But it's not as though these people don't exist and they sure found a lot of them. Yeah, I don't know. I mean, Trump becoming president is not going to fix stupid.

CHAPTER 49 / 57 Discussion

Gaza Conflict, Philadelphi Corridor and IDF Progress

The IDF announced it has gained full control over the Philadelphi Corridor, the strategic border zone between Gaza and Egypt used by Hamas for weapon smuggling. Secretary of State Antony Blinken expressed concern that Israel lacks a "day after" plan for governing Gaza, warning of a potential power vacuum or enduring insurgency. Israeli officials indicate that the military operation in Rafah and the broader Gaza Strip will likely continue throughout 2024.

gaza· idf· rafa· philadelphi corridor· hamas· antony blinken· israel

2:45:07 No, it's definitely not going to fix the educational system. He hasn't got time for that. First of all, he's going to have to stop the conflict in Israel. And I do have an Israel clip. I got to play these because this is showing that, oh, this is not, you know, my thesis, which was that they got to start going to a ceasefire so they can push this off to the new democratic, which reminds me this is because they just brought up the fact that It seems as though Biden is going to get nominated outside of the convention. Yeah, I heard this too, a virtual nomination so that they don't actually have to do a convention. Is that the idea? I think it's because of the riots that are going to take place. And my thinking was, well, Netanyahu's got to do a ceasefire, then start the war again later.

2:45:52 after somebody violates a ceasefire, but no. That was, no, doesn't seem like it does it. That's not what's gonna happen. Listen to the Gaza report. Israel defense forces have been conducting ground operations in Rafa for a few weeks now. And on Wednesday, the IDF announced more progress, saying it now has full control of the entire border between the Gaza Strip and Egypt. This strip of land is also known as the Philadelphia Corridor. The Philadelphia corridor served as an oxygen line for Hamas, through which it carried out weapons smuggling into Gaza on a regular basis. Our forces located along the corridor dozens of loaded launchers prepared to fire rockets, launching pits from which Hamas fired rockets and mortars to Israeli territory. He also added that control of the corridor will prevent Hamas from smuggling weapons into the Gaza Strip.

2:46:47 Meanwhile, Secretary of State Antony Blinken raised his concerns over the war in Gaza while speaking in Moldova on Wednesday, saying Israel does not have a plan for the day after the war is over. Which reminds you, he says that but meanwhile we had a plan when we left Afghanistan? What are you saying here, Blinken? Right, and did you see, was that, I don't know if it's true but I saw pictures apparently of Nikki Haley writing on bombs, you know, missiles, finish them? I don't know if that's true. Well, it could have been AI, I could have been duped, but it wouldn't surprise me. Gaza report 2. A plan for the day after that does not leave Israel responsible for Gaza, which it says it does not want to be. But if it is, it will simply have an enduring insurgency on its hands for as far as one can see into the future. Or not, if not, Hamas will be left in charge, which is unacceptable.

2:47:43 Or if not, we'll have chaos, lawlessness, and a vacuum that eventually will be filled again by Hamas or maybe something, if it's possible to imagine, even worse, jihadis. Meanwhile, in the Gaza Strip, residents continue to flee for safety as the battle between Israel and Hamas rages on. The situation is scary with all the shelling. The children are scared. We have no place left to stay. This is the seventh time we have been displaced from where we were, going from one place to another. Although Israel has been making significant progress in Rafa, the fighting appears to be far from over. Israel's national security adviser said the war in the Gaza Strip will continue at least throughout 2024. What? That's no bueno. That means through the election, that means through the convention.

2:48:39 Well, they are they are trying to create pressure on Netanyahu. This is from Turkish radio television Benjamin Netanyahu Israel's divisive Prime Minister is in the eye of the biggest storm of his three separate stints in the job Cracks within his coalition government are starting to show Netanyahu has been assailed from every direction the captives families and anti-government protests, opposition, and now Israel's war cabinet minister Benny Gantz vows to quit by June 8 if there is no post-war plan for Gaza. Netanyahu is a criminal.

CHAPTER 50 / 57 Discussion

Benjamin Netanyahu, Political Pressure and War Cabinet Cracks

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu faces increasing domestic pressure as War Cabinet Minister Benny Gantz threatens to quit if a post-war plan for Gaza is not established by June 8. Despite widespread protests from the families of captives and opposition leaders, Netanyahu maintains his majority in the Knesset through alliances with far-right ministers. The political instability in Israel is complicated by the ongoing military objectives and international calls for a ceasefire.

2:47:43 Or if not, we'll have chaos, lawlessness, and a vacuum that eventually will be filled again by Hamas or maybe something, if it's possible to imagine, even worse, jihadis. Meanwhile, in the Gaza Strip, residents continue to flee for safety as the battle between Israel and Hamas rages on. The situation is scary with all the shelling. The children are scared.

Netanyahu is a criminal.

2:49:18 He commits human crime and I'm sure that he would like the war to continue. He doesn't care about the kidnapped people. He doesn't care about all the 30,000 Palestinians For the moment, Netanyahu has succeeded in holding together far-right ministers such as National Security Minister Etemar Ben-Gvir and Finance Minister Bitzel El Smotrich. The two leaders of hardline nationalist religious parties have alienated both Israelis and the United States, but they are the reason Netanyahu is able to stay in power.

2:49:59 Nobody's going to bring down Netanyahu because the only way you can bring him down is by elections. And since he has the majority in the parliament in the Knesset, so you cannot force any elections on him. There you go. At least you didn't cancel elections like Zelensky, who's no longer actually president. I have used a bastion of This other I have some a couple of Ukraine clips because now it seems I got it. I got to stick here for a second. I have two clips I need to play one is a very interesting finally fine Finally, we have a use for artificial intelligence.

CHAPTER 51 / 57 Discussion

All Eyes on Rafah, AI Images and Palestinian Statehood

An AI-generated image with the slogan "All Eyes on Rafah" went viral on social media, shared by millions of users and celebrities to spotlight the conflict in Gaza. Simultaneously, Ireland, Norway, and Spain formally recognized the State of Palestine, joining 146 other UN members. Israel's Foreign Ministry reacted with fury, accusing the Spanish government of complicity in inciting genocide, while other EU nations like Denmark voted against recognition.

2:50:55 Well, in the aftermath, social media has been flooded with one image in particular, and we're going to talk more about that now with Delano D'Souza, who joins me on set. Delano, what's this all about? Well, Jeannie, good to see you. Well, this image has been circulating quite literally everywhere on social media in the past 24 hours or so. I've seen it on celebrity accounts, celebrities who have been commenting on what's been going on in Gaza, as well as those who have remained remarkably quiet. on what's happening in Gaza. So celebrities from Hollywood, Bollywood, sports celebrities, what have you. Now, what exactly is this picture behind me? Well, you have rows of tents. As you can see, it's very symmetrical, indicating this

2:51:37 image has been created by artificial intelligence. The tent spell out the words all eyes on Rafa. Users can share the images from their Instagram. They can share the template rather. Over the past seven and a half months or so we have seen really horrendous images coming out of the Gaza Strip and social media has really become a tool to spotlight what exactly is going on in Gaza. So finally artificial intelligence. I've not seen this image anywhere, but maybe I'm just not on the right threads. And then this clip. By the way, I like the way he said celebrities are posting stuff and then some celebrities are surprisingly remaining silent. Oh yeah. Oh yeah. Oh yeah. Well sure, only when in their right mind would remain silent. I know. It's basically, this is the new flag. You know, the new Ukraine flag.

2:52:32 Now you got to post this image otherwise, you know, or black black profile picture. This is the one you have to post. And I think this next clip. This seems to me like it's a big setup. Separated by distance, but united in solidarity. The formal recognition of the State of Palestine by Ireland, Norway and Spain means 146 of the UN's 193 members share the same belief that Palestinians should be able to determine their own future. And Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez was clear about his hopes for this part of the Middle East.

2:53:08 The state of Palestine must be viable, with the West Bank and Gaza connected by a corridor, and with East Jerusalem as its capital, and must be unified under the legitimate government of the Palestine National Authority. In response, Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz reacted with fury. writing on X, formerly known as Twitter, that Sanchez's government was being complicit in inciting genocide against Jews and war crimes. Just over a third of EU members now formally recognise the state of Palestine, but Western opinion remains split, especially among Israel's allies. On Tuesday, Denmark's parliament voted down an attempt to follow Spain's lead

2:53:49 after Foreign Minister Lars-Løkke Rasmussen said preconditions for an independent country were lacking. However, neighbouring Norway went ahead with its formal recognition despite there being no official ceremony. If they become recognised as a state, i.e. a country, and they lob one missile, isn't that an act of war? Good point. That's a good one. No one brought that up. Isn't that the stupidest thing ever? Oh yeah, you're a country now. You have no formal government structure, you have no money, you have nothing. But then if you're a country, then it's an act of war if you shoot a missile over. By the way, it looks like Trump was found guilty on all counts, I'm getting here from the troll room. Oh really? Well that should be interesting. I bet you there's a celebration in Hollywood! Yeah.

Trump Guilty Verdict, Sentencing Speculation and Ankle Bracelets

Breaking news during the broadcast confirms that Donald Trump has been found guilty on all 34 counts in his Manhattan criminal trial. The hosts speculate on the upcoming sentencing, suggesting the judge may opt for a "humiliation ritual" such as an ankle bracelet or a fine rather than immediate imprisonment. They predict the verdict will lead to a significant appeal process and potentially galvanize Trump's support among certain voter demographics.

2:54:45 Well, at least we keep up. Hey, it happened live, baby. Live. So, to the gulag! Throw him in the sliver! There's discussion about this too. I think they can go to Skotis with it, can't they? Well, no, they're gonna appeal obviously. They don't have to appeal directly to the Supreme Court, but they have to have a sentencing still. And it's believed that the judge won't imprison him because somebody behind the scenes says, hey look, you can't, this is gonna be a pain in the ass. But they can fine him and keep the felony status. You know, he'll have to wear an ankle bracelet.

2:55:25 That's it'll be something like that. Humiliation ritual. Trust me, these people are insane. Yeah, it'll be a humiliation ritual. Exactly. Do you want to end this or do you want to go to Ukraine? By the way, it's gonna be the black vote's gonna really swing toward him now. Oh yeah, especially if he gets an ankle bracelet.

A long list of listener donations is read, including a significant contribution from Dame Tony of the North Cowtown Pickleball Region. The hosts acknowledge several "boob donations" ($80.08) and discuss the technical challenges of using Stripe versus PayPal in different countries. This segment reinforces the "Value for Value" model by publicly thanking the individuals who provide the financial "treasure" necessary to sustain the program.

CHAPTER 56 / 57 Discussion

Meetup Protocols, Donation Etiquette and ISO Off

John C. Dvorak introduces a new protocol for meetups, requesting that donors hand their contributions directly to the hosts rather than using a middleman. He emphasizes the importance of personal interaction and the opportunity to thank supporters face-to-face. The segment concludes with a playful "ISO Off," where the hosts compete to see who has the better audio clip for the show's soundboard.

meetup protocol· donation etiquette· iso off· adam curry· john c. dvorak

3:13:45 So you're going to a meetup? I'm going to a... I'm gonna go to the meetup. Of course you are. I want to bring up a protocol that needs to be addressed. Protocol alert! So you can hand out donations to us during these meetups if you feel like it. The protocol is always put it in an envelope, put a note in there, put your name on it, whatever. But recently there's been a trend of somebody collecting the donations and then bringing them over to either you or myself. This is a bad policy and I'll tell you why. It's too impersonal. I agree with that. I would like to see who gives the donation and thank them personally. Shake their hand, yes. Absolutely. And shake their hands and say, well thank you very much even though you know it's... And kiss them. Kiss them on the cheek.

3:14:40 Depends on the person I'll do it. I'll kiss anybody. Yeah, you would so so the now the middle I know there's guys that do these me if something they like the idea of collecting the money and then bringing it over and then it's you know, you don't know who really is responsible and I think it's awkward but that can be changed so that person who feels obligated to grab the money and And it's also creates a middleman is unnecessary is that person should be in charge of bringing the person over Yes to either Adam or myself and introducing us. Yes, that's a good policy I'm down with that, but I think it's a good policy. Yeah, the other mechanism which has been used is Impersonal it's no good

3:15:28 So there you have it. We have a big ISO off today. You've got four. I've got four. I'm going to play yours first. Tell me which one you want. Go. Well, tell me which one. Which one? Yeah. Which one? No, no, no. I bumped the mic. Oh, you know, like let's go with this one is offbeat, but I think it could work as goal. No, no, no. You didn't like that. How about a thank you? All right. Thank you. Little muddy.

3:16:04 On board. Would love to have you on board. Muddy. Not that muddy. Oh, muddy. It wasn't as muddy as the vanderline clip. Yes. Which I'd still like to have explained. Okay, here's the last one. Thank you again. Thank you again. That's probably the best one of the bunch, but I think I've got you beat. I think I've got you beaten many, many times over. Uh, he's the first one. Oh, wow. That was a good one. Huh? Huh? Huh? Okay, he planned okay. I have this one stop and smell the roses

Good News Segment, Tater the Dog and Show Outro

The hosts discuss retiring the segment in favor of lifestyle tips in future episodes. The show concludes with a series of "end of show mixes" from various producers and a final sign-off, reminding listeners to support the program through the "Value for Value" model.

3:16:47 Okay, how about this one? It's almost hilarious. Come on, that's pretty good. I think the oh wow is better. Or this one. Enjoy the banana. That's like my goal. No, oh wow is a good one. I'd use that. I'm not gonna complain. And all new at midday, you've heard about cats. Oops, what was that? I didn't mean to do that. Oops. You'll never... what? Here we go. Good news, good news, good news, good news, good news. Pay attention everybody, this may be the last time you hear a good news report. The jury is still out. Well, not on Trump, but the jury is out on the good news segment. It could become John's tip of the day. John, what is your good news report for today? Well, you were complaining, according to Mimi, about not doing enough cat stuck in a tree good news.

3:17:36 Yes, so we have this is a weird one. This is a dog I don't know how a dog could do this But a dog stuck in a tree and all new at midday you've heard about cats getting stuck in trees But what about a dog Newport News firefighters had to save one yesterday afternoon Take a look at these pictures from Newport News animal welfare crews got a call that tater the hound dog was stuck about 20 feet up in the air after chasing a cat named Boris and firefighters used a ladder and brought Tater back down to earth. Thankfully for that he wasn't hurt. As for Boris the cat, he was happy just sitting out of reach and watched the whole rescue go down. Well, Tater looks pretty happy to be rescued there.

3:18:22 Yeah, I appreciate that. But I think I'm joining Bernetti. It's time to retire the good news. We'll see what we do next week. I mean, on Thursday—on Sunday. What am I talking about? Next month! Sunday. Sunday, Sunday, Sunday, everybody. That's right. I would like to have seen a video of a dog climbing up a tree to get that high. Sketchy at best. It's very sketchy.
