About this episode

Matt Gaetz withdrew his name from U.S. Attorney General consideration this week as controversy mounted over an ongoing ethics investigation and unsubstantiated allegations. The resignation of the Florida representative from the House has sparked intense speculation regarding a potential appointment to Marco Rubio’s vacated Senate seat. Meanwhile, Donald Trump continues a rapid-fire cabinet rollout including RFK Jr. and Pete Hegseth, a strategy analysts suggest is designed to bypass traditional administrative norms in favor of media-savvy communicators.

President Joe Biden authorized Ukraine to utilize U.S.-supplied ATACMS long-range missiles for strikes within Russia’s Kursk region, a move followed by reports of British Storm Shadow missiles hitting targets in Maryino. The Department of Defense failed its seventh consecutive financial audit, unable to account for an $824 billion budget just as Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy prepare to lead the new Department of Government Efficiency. In the Baltic Sea, investigations are underway into the suspected sabotage of underwater internet cables involving a Chinese-owned cargo ship, while Sweden and Finland have begun distributing war preparedness manuals to millions of households.

Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski faced a public backlash from figures like Rosie O’Donnell after a private meeting with Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago intended to reopen communication lines. Sunny Hostin was forced to deliver a legal retraction on The View regarding claims made about Matt Gaetz following a mandatory commercial break. Adam Curry and John C. Dvorak also examine the rise of AI-generated influencers on LinkedIn and the Department of Justice’s move to force Google to divest its Chrome browser.

Matt Gaetz Withdraws, Florida Senate Seat Speculation

Matt Gaetz withdrew his name from consideration for the U.S. Attorney General position following significant controversy and an ongoing ethics investigation. Speculation suggests a strategic move where Gaetz might be appointed to the Senate seat vacated by Marco Rubio, potentially setting up a legislative rivalry with Adam Schiff. Gaetz's resignation from the House of Representatives complicates his immediate return to the 119th Congress, though technical pathways for a return remain.

matt gaetz· marco rubio· donald trump· florida· attorney general· adam schiff

00:00 Who's Dynamite? In the morning everybody, I'm Adam Curry. And from Northern Silicon Valley where we've got Netanyahu ICBMs Matt Gaetz what's going on? I'm John C. Dvorak. It's Crackpot and Buzzkill! In the morning... I'm glad you asked breaking at this hour John breaking at this hour No Agenda News can exclusively reveal that Matt Gaetz has withdrawn from the Attorney General position

00:48 Yes, as expected. Yes! Gee didn't we say that would happen? Well here's the scenario the way I see it Matt they're definitely wanted to get Rubio in and oh yeah they have to replace him with somebody As a senator? Sure, as senators So you replace him with Matt Gaetz, but Matt Gaetz says hey I got this investigation going on it's gonna be an embarrassment. You're not gonna be able to put me in into Rubio spot because he wants Rubio... He wants Matt Gaetz in there too counter and you're gonna see this I guarantee you're gonna see them on the same committees Matt Gaetz and a creep from California The Turtle Head guy

01:37 Oh, oh who slept with the Chinese spy? No no that's a congressman we're talking about senators. Our new senator. Schiff! Adam Schiff. So they need a guy to argue with Adam Schiff so they want to put Gates in there so now Gates can't get the job with this investigation going on. So here's the deal, okay? And I think Trump because of the four years he spent spending scheming you can come up with these things as faster than they used to." He goes, okay we're gonna pick you for attorney general, you can quit the house before they release the report there'll be a big kerfuffle and then all of a sudden just before shit hits the fan you quit the denomination

02:17 Go back to Florida, you're not in the house anymore and then you can be moved into Rubio's spot before anybody knows what the hell is going on and you're gonna be the next senator from Florida. I like the theory! I will add a little twist of that something that i thought would come up in the combo but it didn't Because I immediately tried to get a clip of Matt Gaetz resigning. Oh, I'm sure everyone's all over this breaking, breaking at this hour and I couldn't get a clip but I did get this. It's unclear what happens next though to your question of does it matter because Matt Gaetz remember was elected to serve in the 119th Congress we are right now in the 118th Congress. The 119th Congress doesn't take power until January and when

03:02 Matt Gaetz resigned, he said that he does not intend to take his seat in the 119th Congress. But he didn't resign from that congress because he can't because that congress doesn't exist yet so if Matt Gaetz wanted to come back to Congress and serve in his seat come January In theory, he could try to do that. We do not know if he wants too I'm checking in with sources close to Gates right now to figure out that exact question what is next here for Matt Gaetz but if you wanted to join Congress again come January he technically could Diane. Oh! Technically? Yeah, he technically could so well and you know it

CHAPTER 02 / 45 Discussion

Media Reaction, Trump Cabinet Appointments Supercut

Mainstream media outlets reacted with alarm to Donald Trump's rapid-fire cabinet selections, including RFK Jr. for Health and Human Services and Pete Hegseth for Defense. News reports featured journalists expressing emotional distress over the appointments, labeling the picks as loyalists and sycophants. The coverage characterizes the incoming administration as a "clown car" of unconventional figures intended to disrupt established government norms.

rfk jr· pete hegseth· donald trump· cnn· cabinet· mainstream media

03:42 You know what? It doesn't matter. It's fun! Everybody can run around with their hair on fire and go talking about it, and the culture war economy is... Oh boy oh this... I have a supercut of hair on fire This week Trump has been revealing his cabinet chock full of loyalists sycophants and perennial bootlickers I can't think of any single individual who would be more damaging to public health than RFK. He's not going to receive a very warm welcome from the career folks there

04:24 We've seen people today, our fellow reporters crying hugging in the hallways. Pete Hegseth Trump's proposed Secretary of Defense defends war criminals and displays tattoos associated with white nationalism and Christian nationalism are completely incompetent who most American business owners wouldn't hire to run a taco stand. The former and future president is moving quickly to fill the clown car and round out his cabinet before he changes his mind and fires them all If you've been accused of being weird and dangerous, it seems like Trump is doubling down on that So television I'll just call it what it is Television has not taken a moment Not a beat not just let's step back well a couple have but lets just step back for second

05:09 and evaluate what has happened here. We failed in our mission to discredit Hitler, to prevent him from ascending his throne because he's literally a king now... And it doesn't matter let's just keep it going and you know what? People are falling right in! Oh it's great oh we have more stuff to put on social media ah it's groovy so much that is overflowing to new social media to blue sky I had a thing about Blue Sky, this was funny. Where was it? Here it is... Blue Sky Safety! They have a safety team over there John just so you know if you go to blue sky if you leave the evil X and glowed go to blue sky they have a safety team

CHAPTER 03 / 45 Discussion

Blue Sky Safety Reports, Social Media Migration

Blue Sky reported a massive surge in user activity and safety reports, receiving over 42,000 complaints in a single 24-hour period as users migrate from X. Actor Rob Reiner is among the high-profile figures moving to the platform, though reports indicate that online harassment has followed users to the new service. The platform is currently relying heavily on AI for content moderation to handle the influx of reports.

blue sky· x· rob reiner· social media· safety team

05:56 And they said in the past 24 hours we've received more than 42,000 reports an all-time high for one day. We're receiving about 3,000 reports an hour to put that into context in all of 2023... Oh and then it cuts off for some reason why is this? So so they didn't even receive that many reports in all of 2023 Yeah. I mean, it's including child sexual abuse material? A bit there's all kinds of stuff in because they have AI doing most of the work over there so it's gonna be a disaster now that the other thing is its iPhone interesting with somebody reposted on Twitter Of course the thing about Twitters that you know all these maniacs just

06:47 Just grab stuff from every place else and post it on Twitter. You like TikTok? Yeah, we got it for you! Put it on Twitter! You like Blue Sky? We got it here ya go! Put it on Twitter! And so they put it on Twitter. It's a big aggregator. Rob Reiner has always been threatening to quit Twitter I think he still has an account there but now he says now we want blue sky blue sky So he goes the blue sky. They find a tweet or whatever posting on Blue Sky Rob Reiner, who's now complaining that the kind of creeps that are on Twitter are now over on Blue Sky giving him grief. Gee surprise! The hate is so much I can't stand it Get off of all of that None if its good these a digital towers of Babel filled with AI slopping their stairwells It's all no good But everybody including my friends All in

07:39 Oh yeah, oh Megyn Kelly. Oh transgender bathroom in the Capitol! It goes on and on and on. Transgender thing? I'll get to that but... That's a classic In a rare moment Lulu over there at CNN Lourdes but everyone calls her Lulu She had a rare moment- Who is Lulu? We talked about her she's the possible spook Lourdes A possible spook at CNN? What am I saying? Let me write that down for an idea. Oh, come on! We talked about her... Lulu... I don't know who it is. We might have but I just couldn't remember. Garcia Navarro. Lulu Garcia Navarro. Also known as Lulu. Don't ring a bell. So Lulu... Well they call her Lulu. Lulu's on the Burnett Woman show

CHAPTER 04 / 45 Discussion

Trump Communication Strategy, Lulu Garcia-Navarro Analysis

Lulu Garcia-Navarro of CNN analyzed Donald Trump's appointment strategy, suggesting he is casting his administration like a television show. The strategy involves selecting effective communicators and recognizable figures, such as Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, to sell policies directly to the public via podcasts and the "manosphere." This approach prioritizes media presence and public recognition over traditional administrative experience.

lulu garcia-navarro· elon musk· vivek ramaswamy· donald trump· cnn

08:35 $6 million a year. Yeah, six million dollars a year we're told and she has a rare moment of perfectly describing Trump's appointee strategy which we deconstructed two shows ago I think? Of having a front person who makes all the noise, a lightning rod and have someone in the background who does all the work. So perfect is The First Buddy Elon also known as the modern-day Edison and Vivek I should say Vivek Vivek as in cake yeah people keep saying you guys your O is so precise about pronunciation and words you shouldn't say but it's vivek so you should say it right yes this is right throughout you know we've trained our

09:24 our producers to be the way we are, which is sticklers for this sort of thing. And so now they become sticklers and they give us grief. There you go! So listen to Lulu as she figures it out I still don't think she realizes exactly what she's figured out. So look let me take a step back there's a lot people who get put into these jobs who haven't overseen much right? So i'm not going to say that he hasn't ever seen something that large disqualifying in and of itself but the history here is relevant The history is relevant. When I was listening right now, I thought that what was going to be announced was Dr. Phil was gonna be the Surgeon General so at least we're not there yet. Yet? But listen what is happening here is this

10:05 We are now in Donald Trump's TV show. And, you know this is the world we're living in now he is casting the characters that he wants to play in his administration and the point behind this is actually a serious one They're not just good-looking people, they're very effective communicators who actually are recognizable to the American public. If you think about why Donald Trump thinks he won this election it's because he was able to have a consistent message, people listen to him, he is recognizable and he was palling around with people like Elon Musk. He is putting

10:43 people in these positions that people know and that can sell his policies. So whatever he does, there are going to be people who are able to go out into the manosphere or into podcasts on cable news and talk about it in a way that people will believe too. And I think that's what he is up to. So I like that she says Donald Trink...Donald Trink? Donald Trump thinks he won because of this strategy. I don't know why she thinks he won But this is the strategy. Absolutely! Well, if she's a spook... He won because this whole thing was just scam and it was set up to win It had nothing to do with whatever strategy that's on. And she knew that That's why she said that By the way are we in the manosphere? We're in the manosphere We're IN THE MANOSPHERE

CHAPTER 05 / 45 Discussion

Elitist Culture, Abby Phillip Harvard Panel

Abby Phillip participated in a Harvard Institute of Politics panel where she addressed the growing disconnect between political elites and the broader public. The discussion highlighted how elite consensus often fails to reflect national sentiment, leading to groupthink within the Democratic Party's activist class. Some commentators, including Anna Kasparian and Jillian Michaels, are noted as figures who have recently broken away from this perceived elitist culture.

abby phillip· harvard· democratic party· elitism· anna kasparian

11:34 Welcome to the Manosphere. The Manosphere? I wrote that down as a show title. Manosphere, and i think it might have been overused by now... Oh yeah you'd think. Manosphere, oh I'll put it down as a possibility. Manosphere. So uh yeah. Abby, your girl Abby! Abby Phillip! You had clips of her on the last show. Abby Phillip from CNN Yeah Yeah, the black news reader. So she was at the Harvard School Institute of Politics on a panel and she's... Boy you really gotta be I don't want to say have to be hard up for attention

12:23 I've never been invited. If the Harvard Institute of Politics... Well, of course you would go! Of course I would if do i get a per diem? Do I get travel expenses? No. Oh well no then I'm not going to pay for my travel expenses and a per diem I'm not gonna go. You should get an honorarium at least not a per diem. That will be good So she also comes very close to understanding what's going on. And on one hand, I'm delighted because I love seeing people waking up and you know kind of like Anna Kasparian and Jillian Michaels...I love seeing these people wake up! On the other hand it'll ruin the show if they figure it out. You know? I know exactly what you're thinking and I agree with the basic thought but

13:11 hordes of people that aren't going to figure it out and are gonna be the Rob Reiners and the rest of them, they're always gonna be around to keep the show goin'. I have observed that elites increasingly talk only to each other. And come to believe that because there is consensus among them, but that consensus is shared broadly And there are not enough voices that are confident enough to disagree and to present alternatives. We, as a society need to find better ways to uplift divergent voices otherwise we will be victims of groupthink.

14:08 There is an activist class, I think this is particularly acute in the Democratic Party right now. There's an activist class in the Democratic Party that is multiracial, multi-ethnic... It is diverse but it's an activist class and so because of that they're not able to see outside of that And Republicans had the same problem before Trump. The Heritage Foundations of the world, etc., right? They had the same issue fundamental issue but Trump kind of broke them out of it Democrats are in that place now where they have to break out of it Yeah! They need someone to break them out not that they have one But they need to be broken out of that elitist culture

15:00 I love the self-realization. It's healthy, it's good for them. Why did they need anyone to break them out of it? They were doing fine with it. They're still doing fine with it You just want the show. They lost an election...I'll take their side! Okay. They lost an election barely. It could have gone either way as everyone noticed Yeah, they did win everything but it's beside the point. They'll be corrected in the midterms and the Democrats will be right back where they were more or less at least I have enough people in Congress that one house or the other to stop Trump and then they can impeach him again because yeah would good to be a third time would be good

15:41 and the elitist approach that they're using, which is the right approach because they're elitists. If you're an elitist it's not like you're gonna change... Well there are elitist Republicans! Yeah there are tons of them! So what do you say? I don't think anything, I think the few people that are on the fringes that are you know... That for some reason or other like Julian Michaels is a good example. That just got fed up with one thing or another or Kasparian who only got fed up because she got condemned for being a racist when she wasn't. Yeah

16:21 But if it wasn't for those little moments of mistakes made by the elitists, because they're idiots. They're not elitists at all really If you want elitist, you know, you got Jacob Rothschild. There's an elitist. Is he still alive? Didn't he just die? No, he died. He died unfortunately but the Rothschild family is... You know they're that's real elitism it's not you know and they're not they don't act like this They're not these guys are phonies or just academic elitists in there. They're full of crap And I'm not gonna change why would they? What? Oh no! You right I have a podcast clip if you want to hear some dumbed...I have a new category in my clip folder called Dumb Dems. Dumb Dems? Dumb Dems! And i'm not against anyone's political views per se, but these are dumb dems and this is the Slate Political Gab Fest Podcast. And so they're discussing... From Slate? Yes from Slate Washington Post

CHAPTER 06 / 45 Discussion

Language Policing, Slate Political Gabfest

The Slate Political Gabfest podcast featured a discussion on the internal struggle within the Democratic Party regarding language compliance and "purity tests." Host Emily Bazelon described the personal torment of choosing between terms like "illegal alien" and "undocumented immigrant" to avoid social excommunication. The segment characterizes the party as an "HR department" focused on linguistic rules rather than broad political appeal.

slate· political gabfest· emily bazelon· undocumented· language

17:24 And so they're discussing this very issue. And it's incredible that the young woman who is going to explain what is going on, she has the most dumbed-down vocal fry I've ever heard as she explains this. If you need to interrupt and stop it let me know. Emily last question on this topic do you think as some have argued I think Ezra Klein has argued this that the Democrats are a party that roots out heretics and doesn't look for converts? Or is that actually true, does the party need to have a kind of broad encompassing welcoming attitude that it doesn't have. I think that right now the party is associated with a lot of purity tests Mike Peska of the podcast The Gist wrote a piece in The Atlantic this week comparing the Democratic Party to HR departments talking about them as like being sort

18:19 fussy place of compliance and language policing and rules, none of which is a whole lot of fun even though it's sometimes necessary. And I thought that was a good metaphor for capturing what doesn't feel broadly welcoming to a lot of people. Thinking about this today, and I was writing how do we describe deportation policies? And my natural instinct – maybe it's because I'm badly trained on decades of false language – is to say illegal immigrants. or even illegal aliens. And I'm like, oh but am I allowed to say that anymore? I better not say that. I should say undocumented and am I supposed to undocumented immigrants, undocumented... Do you see the struggle these people are in do you see the torment? The torment! People undocumented... They're tormented by their own set of procedures

19:09 procedures. They have this rule-based party, it's rule based and you got this, this, you gotta do this, you gotta use pronouns, you gotta that yeah yeah I gotta wear a badge that says I'm him her... It's all these rules and its like the bureaucracy just boiled into like a party people undocumented. And I was like, I don't even know what to do! And this and I feel like there's a whole bunch of GabFest listeners are going to judge me based on whatever language I've used so it's obviously that's a very extremely tiny example but It did occur to me today. It's not that tiny I mean, I think there is to me something troubling about calling a person illegal like Of course I agree with you they're deciding that that means that like you have to excommunicate someone is a different step from hearing it and wondering whether That's really good idea or not

20:06 I had to get the fry in there. The Fry! So now that's all good and fine, but if you are trying to break out of the mold... The other motive such as oh my god. They're gonna sell our station, and you're like I Have a bunch of clips yeah, no I know I'm leading you into it Thank You I Had to turn on CNBC this morning. I wanted to see what's going on anyway Yeah And so they were all freaked out about it because

CHAPTER 07 / 45 Discussion

Morning Joe Mar-a-Lago Visit, Rosie O'Donnell Reaction

Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski faced intense criticism after visiting Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago to "reopen lines of communication." Rosie O'Donnell posted a viral reaction video expressing her disgust, calling the move a betrayal of their previous rhetoric regarding Trump's threat to democracy. An anecdote also details Rosie O'Donnell's early career start as a VJ at VH1.

morning joe· mika brzezinski· joe scarborough· rosie o'donnell· mar-a-Lago

20:44 I'll tell you this if you want to put a name on the list of someone who's gonna come out at this just fine is Kelly Evans woman. She's the one who is the most talented presenter on CNBC, personable... Is she blonde? No no no brunette! She has black hair right right yeah and she never flubs, she's fast on her feet, she knows what she's doing She is a, she should be one of the nightly news anchors. She might be just a bit too young and they may have put a few years on her by putting her in something else but...

21:20 She's the one who'll come out ahead on this whole thing even though you can tell she's worried sick They're always at CNBC and I think CNBC got the short end of this deal because all you You moving ahead. You're moving her head to know a cat Kayla good going to take it. Yeah me first first we have to stick with MSNBC the weakest sister of the bunch And Joe and Mika went to see President-elect Trump and talk with him. I actually have clips, but i don't think i'll play those because they're just so annoying... ...and they're like oh well you know we're not doing this to kiss the ring uh well yeah that's not what Rosie O'Donnell thought So Mika and Joe went down to Mar-a-Lago to kiss the Ring It's the last time I ever watched Morning Joe Oh No! Period End of statement Unreal

22:10 Unreal. For months you were telling us he's the worst thing that could happen to this country and democracy, then you go kiss his ring? Despicable. Despicable you. Both of you. Despicable you! So what is she got a band in the house there? Where's that music coming from, what does she do... She's doing uh this is a TikTok video and she's got an orchestra What is this music?!

We're all stopped to show us stopped for a story Rosie O'Donnell was doing comedy stand-up at It was in West Orange made the name it's something like chuckles obviously I can't remember Chuck Chuck yuck yucks Yeah, I can't remember what the name of it was and Steve leads who also lived in New Jersey Steve is guy who hired me when I was still in Amsterdam and Steve is still with us, he's a good guy. I talked to him maybe twice a year and so Steve had seen her he's like she would be great for VH1 as a because you know MTV owned VH1 as a VJ and so he brought her in and I had to...I think the way it was set up is she would have to interview me and then do some segments

CHAPTER 08 / 45 Discussion

Comcast Media Spin-off, MSNBC Future

Comcast announced plans to spin off its cable networks, including MSNBC and CNBC, into a new entity tentatively called "SpinCo." Bill O'Reilly and Chris Cuomo discussed the move, with O'Reilly claiming the spin-off is a way for NBC News to distance itself from the "hateful" brand of MSNBC. The transition comes as cord-cutting continues to erode traditional cable revenue, with Comcast losing 365,000 customers in the third quarter.

comcast· msnbc· cnbc· bill o'reilly· chris cuomo

23:50 Which she did and you know, she made fun of me. It was kind of cute And back then Rosie O'Donnell had a pretty good stick it was pretty funny and She got hired for VH1 as a VJ and that's how she started so I'll take some blame for it You should! You should take all the blame So I'm gonna lead you into your clips First with a little background. So this is about the Comcast spin-off And here's a, I got this article from where is this? This is from CNBC itself. There you go. So just some data that's in here cord cutting continues to impact the traditional TV business Comcast lost 365 thousand customers during the third quarter The industry overall lost roughly four million traditional paying customers In the first six months of the year

24:49 Still traditional TV networks remain cash cows for media business. Comcast reported in October that third quarter revenue for its media segment, which is comprised of the TV network was nearly up 37% to $8.23 billion largely due to the Olympics without the summer games revenue was up 5%. Disney executives recently said they do not plan to separate their TV networks anytime soon noting the complexities of doing so but they kind of would like to do so." I got a clip from Bill O'Reilly who was still a blowhard. I Have that clip in my series well can I play it first the one with Cuomo? Yeah, you want me to play it now just since I have it racked up or do you want to do your series You know That's interesting you ask you have the whole thing at minute 40 oh

25:43 My O'Reilly clip is 248. I play, I have the whole thing Okay then why don't you go Which is interruptible You can interrupt Yeah yeah go into your... Do you want me to play that one first? Well no because I wanna I have the same clip but I have a longer version which may be more Yeah but do this, do your series whatever you wanna do I'm glad you brought this up Because I didn't know if I should put the O'Reilly thing at the beginning Or should put it at the end of the series But since you brought it up Let's start playing that clip That you talked about He's on Cuomo on News. Cuomo who is still a dope by the way, he's just a dope you know he doesn't know anything I think even says oh I only know what the news says okay news boy exactly. I agree with that yes he sees kind of it

26:30 But he's just a you know, so he's a present. He's a presentable male. He's this dope contest said you two we're gonna have to try to mend some Cliche fences and you two are gonna go in there and you're gonna truck talking about Joe Amica here Yes, it's on by Joe Joe and Mika Going yeah Yeah, and if you this clip is interrupted. There's a spot where they talk about sunny Hawskins That's important to that's where you're gonna stop I think you have yeah well You're gonna stop it okay? To tamp it down because Comcast knew the next day They were going to announce that MSNBC is vapor that is a huge media story Why isn't paper just cuz there is no more putting them in the world of spitting off a bunch of been off oh

27:21 There is, it's a spin-off company. No! There is no spin off... See you bite the propaganda Cuomo! Oh okay I'm just saying what's being reported By the way, I don't know what O'Reilly is talking about here but there IS a spin off and their executives moving over and it will be its own entity It is technically a spin off And whats the name of it? Spinco No really? Can you believe that Really? Is it called Spin... You're kidding me I'm not kidding you spin co that's like newco that mean you're dead so that you're dead when you're spun off into spin Co LLC all right but how do what do you know yeah i know but why would you believe what's being reported? You want the real story here at comp please

28:05 So they're uncoupling their word, Comcast MSNBC from NBC News. That means MSNBC has no resources at all. None! They're not going to be able pay these people millions of dollars racial matter whatever she's making. The NBC News is saying we don't want you around Why? Because NBC News's numbers, Lester Holt and the Today Show are catastrophe. Because half the country equates NBC News with MSNBC and they won't watch So NBC is desperately trying to save the mothership of information And they have to throw MSNBC overboard They're not putting anything into MSNBC They want to sell it

28:49 So where's Georgie Soros now? Georgie is buying radio stations. You can get MSNBC for nothing! Okay, first of all weak to say Georgie is buying radio station we know what's really going on there but the the radio station very different from this MSNBC without the cable network so that's a little week from our friend here. You know, you said... Why? I'm going to talk to you like this. Let me tell you the spin-off of the cable companies are suffering dwindling why well that's because it's like that's a very annoying thing he does This is uh..you had some comments about Cuomo i'll have a comment about O'Reilly I think he's a blowhard and a prick Okay they'll give it to you They don't want any more of this

CHAPTER 09 / 45 Discussion

MSNBC History, Keith Olbermann Legacy

The history of MSNBC is traced from its origins as a Microsoft-backed technology channel to its transformation into a political commentary hub during the Bush administration. Keith Olbermann is credited with establishing the network's confrontational style and mentoring current stars like Rachel Maddow. The network's current value is questioned due to its heavy reliance on dwindling cable distribution and YouTube TV.

keith olbermann· rachel maddow· msnbc· chris hayes· microsoft

29:36 Why? Because it's hateful. Not because it is so far left, the whole NBC-Comcast hierarchy is far left but its hateful! See I disagree with this too...I mean not that they're hateful but if hateful worked which it did for a long time they wouldn't be putting into spinco they'd be giving them medals But it just isn't working anymore They hate. You know what, let's do a little history lesson out there you have to remember that MSNBC which I had worked for for awhile... I was there at the launch! Before they had uh before they had uh move before Princess Diana died that's when it changed it was kind of normal it was Microsoft and MSNBC is supposed be a tech channel

30:28 It was Microsoft, yeah. Microsoft NBC yes Yeah and then eventually NBC just bought Microsoft out but they kept the name And then it became a kind of gossipy channel because of Princess Di and then it still was languishing so I have to say he probably made what it was during the Bush administration was Keith Olbermann Yes good point He came on with a hateful show And he's a hateful guy, very hateful. He is the one who trained Rachel Maddow and he mentored her to be the jerk that she is and she's the one who trained the other guy with glasses whose name... Chris Hayes. She trained him so see like third generation of haters. Chris the Queef!

31:24 So it has a checkered past but it really, really got its start during the hateful era of Olbermann. And I'd just like to say to trolls and...I've seen this floating around and also good friends of mine text me saying hey Elon might buy MSNBC and make sure they do a good channel MSNBC by itself is not worth anything without the distribution. The problem is the cord cutting, that is the problem! You know where people watch these channels the most right now? It's on YouTube TV. YouTube TV is the biggest distributor of what used to be cable programming...by far! For good reason Yeah you get unlimited DVRs it's cheaper as tons of reasons for it

32:08 I don't even know if they're making money on it. I can't believe that they are! Just the unlimited DVR thing, you could break them! But it's hateful! They hate Trump! They hate people who vote for Trump! Everybody knows that and you know what's next? the view. reading so I'll let him intro what you had to do. Let me finish his thought because he mentions this and then we'll cut to the Sonny Hoskins, I want to thank one of our producers for sending it. I've seen these Hoskins things a couple of times and never recorded them somebody sent them to me I said oh I should have recorded them. I can tell because they're little below your level. They won't be the same amplitude that my material has. I noticed right away ah you didn't make that clip someone else did all right here we go yeah you can tell from the waveform sure

Washington Post Financial Losses, Jeff Bezos

The Washington Post is projected to lose $77 million this year, a figure that does not include the impact of 250,000 digital subscription cancellations following the non-endorsement decision. Staffers at the paper expressed fear that owner Jeff Bezos might "pull the plug" on the publication due to mounting financial instability. This reflects a broader crisis in the legacy media landscape as internet-driven shifts reach a critical point.

washington post· jeff bezos· cord cutting· digital subscriptions· media

37:51 Yeah, got it. Cable company Comcast says it will spin off many of its networks that were once at the center of the entertainment giant's offerings comes as people are increasingly trading their cable TV subscriptions for streaming services like Netflix and Hulu. Comcast will spin off USA Oxygen E Sci-Fi and Golf channels as well CNBC and MSNBC yeah the CNBC thing is rough for them I like CNBC that's kind of rough They're getting a raw deal. It's very expensive! And why do they keep Bravo and not CNBC? Because Bravo is on cable channel, it's not over the air. Bravo is a super money maker I guess so Oh yeah the franchise that they have with Real Housewives and all that stuff...it's massive Now that's really real That's just huge But the logic, I'm just saying The logic- it's not a cord cutting

38:48 I mean, Bravo does rely on cable. Yeah! But they gotta keep something and see NBC? That's got to be so expensive... Whenever you're doing live stuff that's expensive right there it's just expensive So the salaries need to come down we need new talent if you and i were doing it And I think that one of the top bosses of NBC is going to run the spin co Or maybe... Yes, the guy who actually had MSNBC under his wing already. Okay. And they're just moving him out with the rest of it. Now but this problem is not just television The Washington Post and this was Was this actually an article in The Post? This wasn't article No New York, the New York Magazine

39:48 So there was a meeting, there was a meeting at The Washington Post. Even before 250 thousand digital readers unsubscribed I'm unsubscribing Bezos from The Washington Post in protest, the paper was on track to lose as much money as it lost last year 77 million A deputy manager editor shared the figure in a recent meeting with reporters and editors per multiple sources. The editor did not say what the added impact of the non-endorsement exodus would be, so it's going to go on even more. Mind blowing one staffer put it! The level of anger is through the roof and fear is also through the roof there's huge concern that Bezos is going to pull the plug yeah

40:34 Well, he's not gonna pull the plug on the other national newspaper. Hey Elon you should buy Washington Post Elon by by MBMS NBC and The Washington Post Elon go ahead Elon Please MSNBC staffers in a panic in a panic So It it's the changing landscape we knew the Internet would do this eventually We just had to wait a quarter of a century But here it is Here it is. It did take longer than you'd think oh goodness we were we were popping the champagne corks in 99 like, Oh! it's gonna be the end of it well it'll all be over what were we thinking? What were we thinking

CHAPTER 12 / 45 Discussion

Ukraine Long-Range Missile Authorization, Biden Brazil Trip

President Joe Biden authorized Ukraine to use U.S.-supplied long-range missiles (ATACMS) for strikes inside Russian territory, specifically targeting the Kursk region. The policy shift is reportedly a response to the deployment of North Korean troops to assist Russian forces. Biden avoided press questions regarding the escalation while attending the G20 summit in Brazil, famously walking into a jungle setting after a brief statement.

joe biden· ukraine· russia· atacms· north korea

41:20 All right, so I think we're done with the M5M. The next thing that we need to move on to because there's just such fear and uncertainty and oh yes doubt that has crept in and are we in World War III? And what are we doing? Biden's going out with a bang and here is a short introductory clip. In a big reversal, President Biden will now let Ukraine use long-range missiles supplied by the US to hit inside Russia until now the president had resisted this position concerned it could escalate Russia's war in Ukraine into something even larger

41:57 Kelly O'Donnell is traveling with the president in Brazil and, Kelly this move coming as President Biden only has a couple months left in office seems meant to send a message. Exactly right Hallie good evening this is a notable shift in policy two US officials tell NBC News that by administration he's giving Ukraine the green light to use American-made long range weapons for limited strikes inside Russia until now President Biden had restricted the use of of American-made weapons to the Ukrainian battlefields to prevent a wider war. But the president is also alarmed by North Korea sending thousands of its own soldiers to help Russia, and given the sensitivity of this change and military operations, The White House in the Pentagon are not commenting publicly on this." So there's a couple things that bothered me right away

42:43 First of all, Biden's roaming around there in South America. And by the way it's not Biden is daddy long legs He's he's jumping around he's got the aviators on won't talk to the press won't say anything There you are I liked it when he walked into the jungle Did you hear? The news, the media was so desperate to get a quote from him. They're yelling at him Yeah here listen to this. Yeah, you know it just doesn't come through I Had that clip and it was just like so it's not you can't hear it. I should do audience. Well. I did it I did It is funny because she's screaming her head off So he won't even acknowledge your existence He's just good cuz you're right its daddy long legs is that other guy? So there's a number of issues

43:48 One, the story is based as far as I can tell on reporting from Associated Press. And so it was able to trace it back to that here's what they report. President Joe Biden has authorized Ukraine to use US supplied missiles to strike deeper inside Russia, they're not saying attack them here, easing limitations on the longer-range weapons as Russia deploys thousands of North Korean troops to reinforce its war according to a U.S official and three other people familiar with the matter so there is zero

44:25 publication of what's going on here. You know, there is nothing in the register, there is nothing on whitehouse.gov We're just accepting that the media has told us this is taking place and we have zero evidence of...we got all kinds of videos of shooting cannons and tanks but we have no North Korean...where are the North Korean dudes running around? 10 thousand of them apparently! Ten thousand of them I don't see that. There's some good funny reports about the North Koreans shooting at the Russians though, it's very humorous Well and then there is confusion because

CHAPTER 13 / 45 Discussion

Storm Shadow Missiles, UK Involvement in Kursk

Ukraine reportedly launched British-made Storm Shadow cruise missiles into Russia's Kursk region, targeting the town of Maryino. While the UK and Ukrainian governments have not officially confirmed the strikes, Russian military bloggers and circulating videos suggest multiple missiles hit their targets. The U.S. also authorized the use of anti-personnel landmines to slow Russian advances as tensions escalate.

storm shadow· united kingdom· kursk· russia· ukraine

45:04 Ukraine has other long-range missiles which aren't from the US. Tonight, a new escalation... Videos circulating online appear to show massive explosions rocking Russia's Kursk region. The Wall Street Journal reporting Ukraine launching at least 10 British made Storm Shadow cruise missiles. Ukraine not commenting Ukraine fighting to hold on to a small patch of Russian territory it holds in Kursk, to use as leverage. But Russian forces assisted by thousands of North Korean soldiers are slowly pushing them back The US in another policy reversal now allowing Ukraine to use anti-personnel landmines to try and slow the Russians down And amid growing fears about Russian retaliation

45:51 The US Embassy in Kyiv closing down for much of the day. We were given exclusive access to the secret command center of the elite Ukrainian Hartea brigade in Kharkov Here drone operators launch attacks on Russian troops For Ukrainians we do not have a choice, we have to fight because we are fighting for our land and for our way of life, for our freedom But this morning the US embassy in Kiev shutting down, warning of a potential significant air attack by Russia. Staff being told to shelter in place and other embassies also closing as these tensions rise between the US and Ukraine and Russia So as you dig into this UK missiles

46:30 Again, it's the media saying this. Neither the UK nor the Ukrainian government have confirmed it but British media say they have numerous sources and also Russian military bloggers are saying that it was storm shadow missiles that were used It is on a town called Maryino in Kursk region in Russia only about 40 kilometers actually from the Ukrainian border this their military bloggers are admitting that it doesn't sound from the way this video sounds as though all of those missiles were intercepted. Perhaps some of them were shot down but certainly not all of them." Yeah and then Moscow says, oh no we shot down five or the six I won't play the clip because it gets a little tedious so these are the great attack-ums they shot down five of the six luckily on the soon to be spun off spinco CNBC

CHAPTER 14 / 45 Discussion

Brookings Institute Analysis, Ukraine Debt Forgiveness

Michael O'Hanlon of the Brookings Institution characterized the missile authorization as a symbolic gesture rather than a decisive military shift. Simultaneously, the Biden administration moved to cancel $4.7 billion in Ukrainian debt under authorities granted by the Supplemental Appropriations Act. Secretary of State Anthony Blinken is overseeing the loan forgiveness as the administration seeks to solidify support for Ukraine before the presidential transition.

michael o'hanlon· brookings institution· anthony blinken· ukraine· debt

47:36 There was a rare moment of spin down and information that was actually useful. from a guy from the Brookings Institute. For more insights on this move, we want to bring in Michael O'Hanlon He's Senior Fellow and Director of Research for Foreign Policy at the Brookings Institution And Mike you were the first person I thought of when i heard this report What does this mean? It sounds like Biden is trying to help Zelensky maybe get the best possible positioning he can before the Trump administration comes in and potentially forces a deal with Russia Hi, Becky. Well that's part of it but I also think it is just sort of the most natural relatively small somewhat symbolic gesture that can be made in response to the North Korean involvement because as you know the permission to use these weapons is limited to that very small part of Russia where the North Koreans are now fighting to try and drive the Ukrainians out

48:33 And moreover, we've known this kind of a decision might be coming for a long time. President Biden's made decisions like this before so I doubt very much that Russia and North Korea allow themselves to have big troop concentrations or vulnerable headquarters within range of these missiles and moreover it seems like we've told the world about the decision before we gave the Ukrainians permission So any element of surprise has probably been lost I think it has to be seen more in the context of the diplomacy of the war. and trying to make sure the North Koreans don't come in in larger numbers rather than any effort to make a decisive military difference on the battlefield. Exactly, it's not that big of deal everybody's got their hair on fire Oh Putin! Oh Putin said oh I'm gonna escalate my rules well yeah of course he's gonna say that It's tit-for-tat this is typical war gaming

49:33 Yes, everybody knew that the attack was coming. I read from the Supplemental Appropriations Act 2024 section 505 while you're picking up the phone transfer of long-range attackums required as soon as practical practice practicable after the date of enactment of this act, the president shall transfer long-range army tactical missile systems to the government of Ukraine to assist the government of Ukraine in defending itself and achieving victory against the Russian Federation. If the president determines that executing the transfer of long range army tactical missile systems for the governor of Ukraine pursued subsection a would be detrimental to the national security interests of the United States

50:14 The president may withhold such transfer, which he of course has done so far. And then he has to issue a report to the committees on appropriations and foreign relations of the Senate and of the House." So none of that happened. What did happen is there was a memorandum on the 15th Memorandum on the delegation of authorities under section 507 D and 508 A, because I went looking. Hey wait a minute don't tell me he let Anthony Blinken take care of these attackums no! D so 507D is cancellation of indebtedness Yes this is exactly right This was the cover-up for what you're just about to read which I think it's just abhorrent

CHAPTER 15 / 45 Discussion

Pentagon Audit Failure, Department of Government Efficiency

The Department of Defense failed its seventh consecutive financial audit, unable to fully account for its $824 billion budget. The failure coincides with the announcement of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), led by Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, which aims to pass a Pentagon audit by 2028. Historical parallels are drawn to Donald Rumsfeld's 2001 admission that the Pentagon could not track $2.3 trillion in transactions.

pentagon· doge· elon musk· vivek ramaswamy· donald rumsfeld

51:03 So the president can, may not before November 15th 2024 so this came out on the 15th take any action related to the indebtedness of the government Ukraine that cancels any indebtedness incurred by Ukraine pursuant to this section. That has been transferred to the Secretary of State And so now Blinken can, if he hasn't already, cancel Ukraine's debt to us. Thanks a lot! According to this morning's report 4.7 billion dollars of loan forgiveness was released right off the top I have no idea how much what the total is going to be but already just so-called loan is bullcrap that means we've been taken for a ride not only is it a cover up for this

51:53 But it's also a cover-up for that. For the seventh consecutive time, the Department of Defense could not fully account for how it spends taxpayer dollars in the latest audit The Pentagon could not track billions of dollars the Defense Department's budget over 800 billion almost a trillion dollars for the 2024 fiscal year is 842 billion just over 12% of the total federal budgets Comptroller Mike McCord stating in a release that despite the audit revealing areas for improvement, the department has quote turned a corner and quote momentum is on our side. Now I got this clip because and this was from News Nation they did some very interesting inserts here

52:39 which we'll discuss after the clip plays out. The Pentagon's reliance on private contractors, which account for more than 400 billion annually over half the defense budget according to usaspending.gov from jet fighters to missile systems that companies like Lockheed Martin Boeing and Raytheon secure multi-billion dollar contracts each year these contracts have drawn scrutiny for cost overruns delays and insufficient oversight. We're not going to be cutting ribbons were gonna be cutting costs President-elect Donald Trump vowing to reduce wasteful federal spending with the newly created Department of Government Efficiency or DOGE. Tapping billionaires Vivek Ramaswamy and Elon Musk to lead the charge. Our defense budget is pretty gigantic, it's a trillion dollars

53:25 But the interest that we owe on the debt is now higher than the defense budget. Over a trillion dollars and growing." The failed audit revealing the Department of Defense continues to face difficulties in tracking and reporting property, equipment and inventory Preventing an accurate report of a clear money trail. This is about restoring self-governance and accountability in America Most of the people making these decisions from health care to the Department of Defense are failing on effectiveness because they have no accountability Though DOJ is not an official agency, and Congress controls budget for federal agencies The hope of the President Elect is that the initiative which ends in 2026

54:07 can help the Pentagon pass its first audit by 2028. So I'm pretty sure all this noise was definitely partially used or intended to cover up this failed audit seventh time in a row and i love that News Nation you know chopped into Doge boys Saying billionaire Vivek Rameshwami. I didn't know he was a billionaire, but the Doge boys How much you want to bet that they're not gonna start with the Department of Defense? I have a very hard time seeing Elon Musk saying yeah No this wasteful spending on those rockets and that stuff You can't have that now we'll see if they go off to the Department of Defense But these types of distractions for massive

54:49 Audit failures within the Department of Defense go back to 2001. That would have been perfect. We are, as they say, tangled in our anchor chain Our financial systems are decades old According to some estimates we cannot track 2.3 trillion dollars in transactions We cannot share information from floor-to-floor in this building because it's stored on dozens of different technological systems that are inaccessible or incompatible We maintain 20 to 25 percent more base infrastructure than we need to support our forces. At an annual waste of tax payers, some 3-4 billion dollars." That was Donald Rumsfeld on September 10th 2001 You know...we didn't talk about defense issues for a long time after that In addition

CHAPTER 16 / 45 Discussion

NATO Military Exercises, Baltic Sea Cable Sabotage

NATO conducted military exercises in Lapland, Finland, featuring French artillery and U.S. rocket launchers, amid concerns over future American engagement. During the exercises, two underwater internet cables in the Baltic Sea were severed, leading to investigations into a Chinese-owned cargo ship with a Russian captain. European officials have labeled the incident as potential "hybrid warfare" intended to destabilize the region.

nato· finland· sweden· baltic sea· sabotage

55:44 This is NATO freaking out about Trump. Freaking out about... They are freaked out we need to have more noise going on with Russia and Ukraine, more stuff to talk about We need to get as much money out as we can And you know what? Why don't we do an exercise while were at it? This forest in Lapland is within Russian missile range It's the first NATO military exercise since the re-election of Donald Trump. And as French artillery fires alongside US Army rocket launchers,

56:22 The threat of American disengagement is on everyone's minds. This French colonel who is in charge here doesn't want to consider this scenario. NATO is important and so is France's role in this military power, NATO is vital for us and our partners Vital, especially as Russian President Vladimir Putin once again raises the threat of a nuclear attack. And for his Ukrainian counterpart Volodymyr Zelenskyy, a US withdrawal would mean a defeat for Ukraine I can't predict the future. The U.S. has been a founding member of NATO for 75 years, and I only see that continuing." Since the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022, the United States have deployed in Europe some 90 thousand soldiers from their naval and air forces. And as NATO allies await Donald Trump's first decisions

57:15 War simulations remain on the agenda. They've got the good-looking uniforms on. You know, yeah it's camo but it's freshly pressed and they're not running through some mud doing exercises they're due to do PR promotion oh and while we're out at Finland Oh you should be very worried you really need NATO too This morning questions about potential sabotage after two underwater internet cables connecting parts of Europe to the NATO countries of Finland and Sweden were severed under the Baltic Sea

58:01 A cargo ship in the area owned by a Chinese company has raised suspicion. Local authorities now tracking the ship that said sail from Russia, unconfirmed reports claim the captain is Russian. European officials not directly blaming Russia for the disconnected cables but Germany and Finland saying our European security is not only under threat from Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine but also from hybrid warfare by malicious actors Hybrid warfare is a term that could include unconventional tactics like cyber attacks. Speaking generally, we are incredibly concerned about hybrid warfare conducted by Russia both in Europe and around the world and it's something that we have been in close coordination with our European allies It comes as Ukraine launches British-made cruise missiles into Russia for the first time just days after President Biden allowed Ukraine to fire American long range missiles into Russian territory

CHAPTER 17 / 45 Discussion

Scandinavian War Preparedness, Swedish Pamphlets

The Swedish government distributed war preparedness pamphlets to over five million households, providing instructions on stocking food, finding bomb shelters, and managing anxiety. Finland launched a similar digital initiative to educate citizens on surviving a potential conflict with Russia. These moves mark a significant shift in Scandinavian policy following decades of military non-alignment and recent entry into NATO.

sweden· finland· nato· civil defense· preparedness

58:53 So we don't even know if attackums were fired, it's still these British shadow missiles and we're freaking out the new NATO members. Oh oh the captain was Russian! Hey probably... And I talked to Sir Von Der Helm, I said how is your internet? He said no problem with the internet These were internet cables There are no issues so i don't know exactly what's going on But we have to sigh up the Finnish and Swedish people one more time. How to prepare for the possibility of war? That's the question addressed in this pamphlet sent out to more than 5 million Swedes The booklet was written by the Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency and provides practical tips for dealing with crises such as war, natural disasters or cyber attacks. We actually have to prepare for a worst case scenario, a war scenario not that

59:45 not that we necessarily think there will be war, but we really need to have that preparedness and include the population in that preparedness. The 32-page brochure gives logistical advice from stocking up on food and water and growing your own vegetables to finding reliable sources of information and locating bomb shelters It also provides mental health advice on how to deal with anxiety caused by the possibility of war. With simple ideas like talking about concerns to friends and family, helping others feel useful exercising or limiting the barrage of negative news about the world

1:00:20 The initiative has sparked intense debate in a society unaccustomed to the reality of war. But the Swedes are not the only ones taking precautions, their Finnish neighbours who share 1,340 km long border with Russia have also set up a website offering similar advice In 2022 after the Russian invasion began two countries asked to join NATO thus abandoning several decades of military non-alignment So there it is in my nutshell. This is a bunch of bullcrap and don't be worried about World War 3 starting and Biden going out with the bang, this is all just typical PR to cover up the audit to cover up the debt forgiveness and to keep NATO looking very important at all boy we can't know Trump you can't pull us out of NATO that would be horrible! This is public relations slash propaganda

CHAPTER 18 / 45 Discussion

Three By Three, Network Coverage of ATACMS Strikes

A "Three By Three" comparison of ABC, CBS, and NBC news coverage shows a unified narrative regarding Ukraine's first use of ATACMS missiles inside Russia. Reports focused on the 1,000-day milestone of the war and Vladimir Putin's subsequent lowering of the threshold for nuclear retaliation. The networks highlighted the deployment of North Korean troops as the primary justification for the U.S. policy reversal.

abc news· cbs news· nbc news· atacms· vladimir putin

1:01:15 I can't argue. No, it's the basic thesis there. You can't argue! It's totally prepare for war oh my my my well we can take a look at the three by three which is about Ukraine shooting these missiles Oh man i'm sorry I feel woefully unprepared I didn't even realize you had a 3x3 and now it's time for Three By Three experiment by JC Dean Comparing stories from ABC, CBS and NBC! The never-ending three by three. Alright Steve Jones on the ball once again it's good to have him back with a 3x3 let's find out what's going on in US propaganda of this war this horrible turn of events. Let's start with ABC

1:02:03 Ukraine firing the first American-made long range missiles into Russia. Targeting an ammunition store in the Bryansk border region seen in videos circulating online, a US official telling ABC News eight missiles known as attackums were fired and two intercepted The Kremlin appearing to threaten possible use of nuclear weapons in response but the Pentagon saying there are no signs it's preparing to do so Russia already attacking Ukraine though day and night We joined drone hunters trying to intercept attacks. Suddenly, an incoming drone you can hear it in the sky The team scours the skies and opens fire These drone hunters are out every night across the country as Russia sends more and more drones across the border into Ukrainian cities The drone gets away is the team works through the night defending family country and freedom

1:03:02 David, today marks 1,000 days of full-scale war in Ukraine and despite all these talks about peace plans there's no clear end in sight. They have... so wow they have different numbers they've got eight drone a eight attack comes to worship how I thought these attackers were like the big deal they suck! They're not doing anything One of them broke up in the sky and fell down and hit someone. But that seems to be happening a lot with these missiles. Yeah, hmmm... Okay well let's go to- These are all the same report but let's go to CBS' version of the same report. I love the opening! U.S officials say Ukraine fired eight American made attackoms into Russia Which US officials? Who?! Give me a name if we're at war

1:03:56 If we are at war... And by the way, if it's a US official they're not anonymous. Well unless they're lying about it or you know the US officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they weren't authorized to talk about it this is bullcrap! If we're at, we now know because Tucker Carlson and Glenn Greenwald did a whole show about it. We're at war now because it takes Americans to operate these and we have to have our US satellite tracking technology but we are at war! You didn't get the clip either? No I couldn't watch it. I just saw that...I'm like no I'm not gonna watch this. I was tempted to get the part you just said. You summarized faster than Greenwald ever could

1:04:40 It's like, oh please. U.S officials say Ukraine fired eight American-made attackoms into Russia The target was a military facility in... Let's just let's just sorry to interrupt but let's just determine what Russia is okay? This is a border region that the Ukrainians that would that's that 1,000 square meters or whatever that they went into it's that area! It's not you know would they say INTO RUSSIA It's not Moscow, you know. It's where the actual skirmish is taking place. Kursk! And you notice that they say Kursk region not THE Kursk region? So it'd be like well these missiles were shot in Kursk Region... I want to say THE Kursk Region

1:05:27 Anyway, I'm not at CBS. Erickson made attackums into Russia The target was a military facility in the Bryansk region of southern Russia according to the Russian Defense Ministry US officials say the Russians may have shot down two of them missiles powerful weapons with a maximum range of close to 200 200 miles. First of all, it's going to help our troops right now at the front lines. Aleksandra Ustinova is a member of Ukraine's parliament who told us she lobbied the US government to allow Ukraine to use the ATAKMS deep inside Russia. The US only agreed to it two days ago worried it could escalate the conflict. Are you angry that the US didn't give Ukraine permission earlier to use the ATAKMS deep inside Russia?

1:06:17 I'm really disappointed that every decision the US government is making comes about six months later than it was needed. Russia accuses the US of adding fuel to the fire and today Vladimir Putin approved a change in Russia's nuclear doctrine, lowering the threshold for a nuclear strike. A U.S official called that irresponsible rhetoric President Biden allowed the broader use of attack arms after more than 10,000 North Korean soldiers were deployed to Russia bolstering Moscow's forces. Today Ukraine's president Vladimir Zelensky warned that number could grow to 100,000. Putin is focused on winning this war he will not stop on his own

1:07:07 Today marks a thousand days since Vladimir Putin launched his invasion. We were here when it began, Nora and we witnessed Ukrainians lose their homes, their limbs and their lives in a war they never wanted. I just want to add my own sound effects from time to time. Alright so that's pretty much the same report... Tell me that NBC starts with a missile launch tell me I think they have that they're given a sound effect. Nat pops baby! Wooo, they had a good one

CHAPTER 19 / 45 Discussion

G20 Summit, Sergei Lavrov Nuclear Rhetoric

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov addressed the G20 summit in Rio de Janeiro, calling the Ukrainian missile strikes a Western escalation. Lavrov emphasized Russia's updated nuclear doctrine but stated that Moscow remains committed to preventing nuclear war. Analysts suggest the current escalation is part of a "MAGA-proofing" strategy by the outgoing Biden administration to complicate future peace negotiations.

sergei lavrov· g20· nuclear war· rio de janeiro· moscow

1:07:44 Tonight, anxious hours after Ukraine fired American-made long range missiles called Atakums at a nuclear armed Russia for the first time. According to two US officials it comes just days after the White House approved their use outside Ukraine's borders. Tonight President Putin has lowered the bar for Russia's use of nuclear weapons Under a new nuclear doctrine, Russia could deploy its arsenal if attacked by a non-nuclear country allied with the nuclear state. A message unmistakably directed at Ukraine and the US

1:08:21 I'm Kelly O'Donnell in Rio de Janeiro at the G20 summit where dozens of international leaders have been gathered including President Biden and Russia's Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov who today called the Ukrainian missile attack an escalation. And he talked about Putin making changes to how Russia could use its nuclear arsenal. are strongly in favor of doing everything not to allow nuclear war to happen. As for the attack, Ukraine says they will help resist a Russian offensive supported by North Korean troops just months before President-elect Trump takes office and is expected to demand a deal

1:09:02 Ukraine today marking 1,000 days of war with Russia. With talks on the horizon but no sign of compromise President Putin has made many unnerving nuclear threats tonight one European leader calling it rhetoric. Rhetoric! Oh someone agrees Why do we have to have a British guy announcing this? Because this is an intelligence op my guys were British too they're all British It's uh... This thing isn't OP And it's been hard here, man. It has been hard to calm people down because they all think nuclear war is coming where you know Lavrov said... He did he says! He sounded more like Kissinger as he gets older. He is, he is, he is. So this is posturing and so what? What's the big deal with

1:09:54 North Korean soldiers who cares do you know my American soldiers are were in Ukraine most of them are dead KIA Because I get the reports every single day. They all went over there and fighting for freedom The as mercenaries, of course There's there's all kinds of Americans British Dutch they're all over the place So what's the big deal? They got North Koreans, oh 10 thousand sure. Yes specifically the question you're asking is specifically what did the Russians have known to use Africans and all kinds so why now is North Koreans

1:10:34 Big deal when everything else seemed to be okay. It's it's just a scare tactic It's it's an op of some sort Keep that noise in there all the time The term that you see floating around is they're trying to mega proof. It's called mega proof Yes, mega proof There you go because when Trump gets in he's gonna want to end this war but you want to mega-proof it That means you won't be able to so they're trying to Screw him over and the only way you can do that is with an op, but yeah Well that brings us to netnyahu. Well can I just stick with NATO for one more second? Oh we're still there Yeah There's one more nato thing i wanted to get out of the way because this has been bugging me for a couple of weeks So there's this well actually neil oliver

Dutch COVID-19 Military Claims, NATO Obligations

Claims circulated online that Dutch Health Minister Fleur Agema admitted COVID-19 was a "NATO military operation." A review of the parliamentary session reveals Agema was actually discussing new pandemic preparedness doctrines and biological attack protocols under Brussels-led rules. The confusion stems from mistranslations of her comments regarding the National Coordinator for Security and Counterterrorism (NCTV).

fleur agema· netherlands· nato· covid-19· pandemic treaty

1:11:23 Who I like, from GB News in the UK. He summed it up quite nicely this has been going around and i have some comments on this story Online publication Slay carried this headline recently from the Dutch part of The Lunatic Asylum Dutch government official admits Covid pandemic was military operation Ministry Of Health obeys NATO A top Dutch government official, it reads has admitted that the that Covid was a military operation and revealed her nation was taking orders from the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. Dutch Health Minister Fleur Agema has revealed that the military operation was led by NATO and The Netherlands National Coordinator for Security and Counterterrorism, NCTV. The NCTV is a Dutch government agency that serves the country's national security

1:12:22 During a speech in the Dutch Parliament, Adjema acknowledged that the government responded to the pandemic by complying with NATO obligations. Now luckily for No Agenda Nation I am fluent in Dutch and not just that I speak the language...I grew up with it! I am completely bilingual and I watched this, I watched the question-and-answer session which was about money about money for a future pandemic. At no point did Dutch Health Minister Fleur Achema say that COVID-19 and the corona period was a NATO operation, she did not say that she's new this is the new parliament that has come in and she said coming in as a newbie I was surprised to hear... She actually says I was very surprised to hear that under the New Preparedness Doctrine which

1:13:16 comes from, she's I think Brussels that there are new rules that they want to implement and what needs to be done under pandemic preparedness in the event it is a biological attack. I'm paraphrasing but she did not say NATO was controlling this whole thing She just didn't say it! She did not say it and you can look at the subtitles as long as you want but I hear what she's saying She said, you know there's something up that this would and this is all the pandemic treaty business. That's what's going on and they want money to prepare for a pandemic for a possible war scenario but she did not say that COVID-19 in the corona period was run by NATO operatives and anti terrorism group it just not true

1:14:09 So stop I when I heard that guy talking. I thought the guy was full of crap just from the sounds of it Well, but so I didn't have to do the translation But this has been going around but the yeah But the other thing I think that might be true is they X CDC guy that weird bearded looking character That keeps cropping up who claims now and a tweet or in a presentation? That was retweeted hmm that the that COVID-19 was actually developed in North Carolina and then moved to Wuhan. Oh no, oh no! That's... since you brought it up I'll play this other clip there's now..oh no! No Canada is....you're wrong

Wuhan Market Theory, Raccoon Dog Data

New research from an international team of scientists claims to strengthen the case that COVID-19 originated at a Wuhan wet market rather than a lab. The study points to the presence of raccoon dogs at the market as potential intermediate hosts, though no specific infected animal was sampled. Skeptics dismiss the report as propaganda, noting the lack of definitive evidence five years after the initial outbreak.

wuhan· covid-19· raccoon dog· ctv· lab leak

1:14:50 You are wrong my friend. We're approaching five years since the first known COVID-19 outbreak and scientists are still trying to trace the origin of the pandemic did it come from a lab or an animal market? Well, a Saskatoon virologist is part of a team determined to find out. CTV's Alison Bamford is on this story and Allison what does new data suggest Sandy, these researchers say it's the most critical question of the pandemic. How did it start? Their previous research pointed to a market in Wuhan as the origin of the pandemic where the coronavirus jumped from animals to humans now an international team of scientists is strengthening its case that COVID-19 wasn't leaked from a lab so we have evidence that the infection spread outward and the human population from

1:15:42 Now we have information that proves that those animals were at the market and we know that some of them were susceptible. The most common animal found was the raccoon dog, known to be susceptible to the virus but researchers are now testing what other animals could have been carriers As far as we know, the animals themselves were never sampled we probably won't be able to locate the exact infected animal. Based on the evidence we have now, these researchers say it's very difficult to explain any other theory of origin that includes the theory that the virus was leaked from the Wuhan lab this team of scientists says that hypothesis is not probable Oh brother!

1:16:28 What is that all about? That's CTV, man. They're... Oh no! I don't... Some dog that the raccoon dog they can't find and there's no evidence any other animals ever had this particular... Hold on to my gloves while i light this fuse There we go. I feel better now. Oh man This is... None of this is news This is just complete propaganda And we've learned nothing We've learned nothing. But we've learned how full of crap these people are! Well, we have no agendization has but I'm just looking at my text messages and like nope... ...We've learned nothing

ICC Netanyahu Indictment, Gaza Drone Reports

The International Criminal Court (ICC) issued arrest warrants for Benjamin Netanyahu and Yoav Gallant for alleged war crimes in Gaza. Meanwhile, NPR published an investigative report featuring eyewitness accounts of "quadcopter" drones equipped with machine guns targeting civilians in northern Gaza. The Israeli military denied the allegations, calling claims of intentional harm to civilians "baseless."

benjamin netanyahu· icc· gaza· npr· war crimes

1:17:05 No, no. It's all scary. So I have a few clips about the machine gun drones Oh good that I wanted to talk about okay because this again brings up the This is in Gaza yeah the Gaza stuff Okay But first I want to mention that this morning it turns out that the International Court criminal court has indicted Netanyahu And just as an NSF ask Adam yes there's This morning on France 24 they were going all over every detail of this thing. Because France is gonna uphold it, right? They said oh yes we're all in! Well no no no uh they Macron says maybe maybe not but then the left wing of France says yes yes yes we're gonna arrest them if we can but there's only one country

1:17:52 This is to ask Adam, only one country in the EU that definitely will arrest him on the spot if they see him? It has to be The Netherlands because the ICC is in The Hague of course! And they're bringing their bikes just around it. Yes, of course. Yeah that's what we do over there. But meanwhile this strange war crime of these machine-gunned... Now first of all I want to ask you a question when you say quadcopter specifically can you describe one for me? A quadcopter would be a drone that has four engines with propeller blades hence quad

1:18:36 Exactly. And it keeps it in perfect balance and makes it very maneuverable? So we have these supposedly drones floating around Gaza shooting people with a gun, there's a machine gun attached to it... It's attached to it okay! But but to begin this series of clips I have to play the Gaza drones Nat Pop. This was the first time and I think we're gonna start hearing this You never heard this before. NPR spoke to several eyewitnesses who have seen the destruction that these drones can cause and NPR's Kat Lonsdorf has been reporting from Tel Aviv and she takes the story from here a warning, this piece includes the sound of gunfire They have a trigger warning for the sound of gunfire? Wow! They should just be putting out on loudspeakers throughout Chicago

1:19:28 Unbelievable. Warning, this city has sounds of gunfire Oh man! Okay warning and this was NPR? This is NPR? Yeah this is NPR let's go with the drones too Wait hold on stop that's the one thing That's the one thing that every man woman and particularly child in the United States Has been exposed to since the womb With this gunfire on every television show Every movie Every Democrat-run city. There's gunfire everywhere since when has this become a trigger for people? I found it... well now that you bring it up, yes! I found it screwy. Video games are filled with them

1:20:14 No, it just makes...it's somebody at NPR the great operation that it is which I'll have a final clip here will indicate they can't even do simple work. But yeah somebody had to come back oh you know what gonna trigger somebody who may have heard gunfire in real life while playing a video game Oh I'm triggered! Okay, clip two. I don't have a number two was that the Duke Robotics? No, no. No, Dukro Bashi's the last clip! Oh I'm sorry, I see it number two yes i do see it 37 year old Fatima Adama is a freelance journalist from Jabalia in northern Gaza It's an area that has been besieged by Israeli forces since early October Adama sent NPR voice notes from her home there on October 9th Hi how are you? she starts Israeli tanks are closing and she says...and the army is nearby suddenly she's interrupted

1:21:12 Ah, hear that? She says. That's the quadcopter. It is what many in Gaza call the small hovering drone with a rifle mounted underneath. If I try to go closer to the door to get better service she says, the quadcopters start shooting and have to go back inside it is very dangerous. The whole town is under siege by the shooting quadcopter drones, no one can move. For months, NPR has collected accounts from more than a dozen people in Gaza who say they have seen these sniper drones and that they've seen them used to shoot and sometimes kill civilians. Fifty-five year old Adib Shakfa says he was walking with his 32 year old son on May 31st in Rafa in southern Gaza. Shakfa says it was a quiet day when there was no fighting nearby when suddenly... A drone appeared and shot the son who is walking up ahead

1:22:08 Wow. Okay, well that's the eyewitnessing you think they'd capture one of these? I didn't think that machine gun sound was very hefty Well it's gotta have a recoil You can't have something that is too powerful Give me something like... Now add the quadcopter Now THAT'S a nat pop Yeah well that would be triggering if you ask me That's how it should sound Okay, so let's go to clip three and then we have their summary. He says two men rushed in to help his son and they were also shot. Two older women nearby were also shot in the head he says. Shokfat says the women were killed...so was his son

1:22:54 The Israeli military told NPR it's unaware of this incident and that any suggestion that it intends to harm civilians is quote unfounded and baseless. NPR also asked the Israeli military repeatedly if it was using the sniper drone technology in Gaza, It did not respond to the question Israel frankly like many militaries is very cautious about what kinds of information It provides about its operations and tactics that it uses. Seth Jones is president of the Defense & Security Department at the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington, D.C., but also makes it more difficult for everyday Israelis or journalists or other researchers to understand

1:23:37 how these things are being used. Further complicating that understanding, until recently Israel had a censorship law in place forbidding the media from reporting on armed drone use by the military and it's something most journalists can't witness with their own eyes. Israel has not allowed outside journalists independent access to Gaza since the war began more than a year ago but we do know that this sniper drone technology exists and that the Israeli military has it Okay, so we know it exists and we know they have they have it and we know that's as far As they go with it. So it takes like 10 minutes ten minutes It takes like two minutes for me to find out the company making these things Duke robotics

Duke Robotics, TIKAD Sniper Drones

Duke Robotics, an Israeli-based company, has been marketing the "TIKAD" octocopter since 2016, which features a proprietary gimbal system to handle machine gun recoil. The robotic system is designed for "surgical neutralization" of targets in urban environments to minimize soldier casualties. Despite NPR's claims of mystery surrounding the technology, the company has publicly showcased the weapon's capabilities for years.

duke robotics· tikad· israel· drones· sniper

1:24:20 And curiously, you might find a little bit of information on their own website. These things were and they're not quadcopters they have eight engines. No the octocopters! Octo-Octocopters! And they have a machine gun mounted at the bottom and they've been around since 2016...and here's what their video has to say about it What if we told you The future is now Robots are replacing combat soldiers. Unnecessary casualties are becoming part of the past, minimizing collateral damage and uninvolved casualties.

1:25:12 With TCAD, the future battlefield has arrived. A fully robotic battalion capable of identification and surgical neutralization of hostiles in the field can now be deployed to places human soldiers can't reach or simply shouldn't have to go TCAD is able to adjust to the right place and time. The TCAD robot is designed to identify, target and engage in real-life scenarios. TCAD takes a full recoil of the weapon discharged compensates for its poor and quickly readjusted to stay on targets and end up fight. The Defense Department chose two as winner of 2016 Terror Combat Competition

1:26:01 The company is in the process of implementing orders from Israeli forces. You're hired, you're hired, you're hired! Welcome to NPR's new staff. Unbelievable it's right there and this was a business from 2016 they've been selling these things and 2017 I guess when they started selling them to Israel. These guys can't cover this? No, no they could have shown pictures of this crazy device and the things actually got like a regular kind of a Machine gun that you could carry in the field. You know with a stock and everything really hanging from it On a bunch of springs nice And so when it fires and kind of jerks the thing around a little bit. It's hilarious to watch

UN Ceasefire Veto, Pope Francis Genocide Comments

The United States vetoed a UN Security Council resolution calling for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza, citing the lack of a direct link to hostage releases. Separately, Pope Francis suggested the international community should investigate whether Israel's actions in Gaza constitute genocide. These developments highlight the deepening diplomatic isolation of Israel and its primary ally, the U.S., on the global stage.

1:26:52 I think we should start all of our podcasts with the following. A warning, this piece includes the sound of gunfire. I think our podcast should start with that always so we don't trigger anybody. Well there's a couple other things regarding Israel good work John your job is secured NPR There was a vote over a resolution in the United Nations. Another school turned shelter in Gaza hit by a deadly Israeli strike. Residents in the enclave continue to pay a heavy price as Israel presses ahead with its military campaign against Hamas, meanwhile attempts to halt the fighting are still proving unsuccessful. A ceasefire draft resolution at the UN Security Council has been blocked

1:27:36 after it was vetoed by the US. Matthew Miller explained the reasoning behind the move. The resolution does call for the release of hostages, what it doesn't do is link the release of hostages to an immediate unconditional ceasefire Israel's UN ambassador criticized the text describing it as a resolution for appeasement of Hamas The resolution being considered by the Security Council today is nothing short of a betrayal. It betrays 101 innocent hostages." Amongst the countries to voice their disappointment over the US veto was France, which stated that the text very firmly insists on the release of the hostages. For the Palestinian envoy to the UN there is no excuse for failing to reach an agreement

1:28:19 There is no right to mass killing of civilians. There is no right to starve an entire civilian population This is what Israel is doing in Gaza It marks the fourth time America has exercised its veto power during the war, in support of it's ally Israel So... No! And this isn't new- this not the old female, woman ambassador. That's some dude who's doing the veto. Do they have a different ambassador all of a sudden? I'm not aware... I don't keep up and then the Pope spoke up about Israel. Pope Francis has suggested that global community should study whether Israel's... By the way this is from Reuters, and i have a couple clips from Reuters today

1:29:02 I am pretty sure this is an AI generated voice. No, it could be! 14 seconds have a listen Pope Francis has suggested the global community should study whether Israel's military campaign in Gaza constitutes genocide It's some of the Pope's most explicit criticism yet of Israel's conduct in its year-long war against Hamas I'm pretty sure that's AI What does the pope doing? What does he have to do with this I don't want to get all my Catholic friends irked. No, well... But he's the anti-Pope! He's Satan! John at Dvorak dot org which you can't spell anyway so just send it to me i'll forward it someone sent me a childhood school photo of you have you ever seen this one? Probably not and you're wearing a Paps blue ribbon shirt

1:30:02 No, does somebody doctor that? Probably not me. And I said why don't you send this to John why are you sending it to me and he says well I couldn't remember how to spell his name and His spam filters would probably block it anyway So your wasting my hard drive space with this really? Send it to me I'll take a look at it Yeah, I have it. I kept it I want people to know that we have a lot of fun show bits coming up, including some big tech.

Financial Advice, Bitcoin and War Fears

Commentary on the current geopolitical climate suggests that fears of World War III are being used to drive financial anxiety and media consumption. While some advise buying Bitcoin as it approaches $100,000, others argue the escalation is a calculated PR move to protect NATO funding and Pentagon spending. The discussion emphasizes remaining calm despite the "hateful" and alarmist tone of mainstream news cycles.

You know the last few get your bank accounts cleared out Get buy Bitcoin Yeah buy high so Adam can get out Adams not getting out and its gonna crack a hundred thousand It's crazy I think that would get to 150

1:31:46 Should I sell at 150? Is that your advice? Yeah, yeah. It got nothing to do with advising you on selling or buying Bitcoin So funny. No, exactly but we provide a service if we really wanted to make money and be living on the high hog We'd be saying things like oh my god World War three is coming it's unbelievable what are we going to do? Yeah Have our people over there because you can't use an attack them without 25 American soldiers They're all there in Ukraine, under our guide. It's an act of war! Biden did this before Trump it's horrible I can't believe it we're all gonna die! Calm down and we can safely say this because we've been through this We've seen this movie many times Go back listen to the archives we've seen how this works

1:32:45 And the fear of NATO getting the financial plug pulled is very real and very big. Yeah, and Europeans aren't gonna put up with it. No no nor is the military cop 29 So I only have one clip from that to come later But you know this is about gouging the American taxpayer for dick That's all everything's about it's about gouging the Pentagon They can't audit it the ridiculous Medicare fraud Everything's about gouge and NATO The UN gouged the American taxpayer.

1:33:40 And that's where you can listen to the live stream. You can also jump in and troll around, which a lot of them have been doing today but they're there it's our live studio audience sometimes are helpful sometimes they just trolley You can also get this on a modern podcast app, podcastapps.com you want to get a modern podcast app because on Monday December 16th I am hosting Adam Curry's Boostergram Ball live from famous Antones In Austin, Texas a live concert John. I'll be back on stage haven't done it in over two decades You're gonna be at this on stage with the microphone? Yeah well i'm not singing but i'm emceeing we have four phenomenal bands All value for value bands and it'll be streaming live on the modern podcast apps with audio and video

1:34:30 Huh? Huh? Podcasting. You're gonna wear a wig?! No, I'm thinking of putting on my headbanger's bald jacket! I think you should definitely do that but you should wear a wig... I don't think so Yeah, big blonde wig. Oh that's so funny! People have been asking if you want to come to the show like I'm not even gonna ask him. Oh yeah. That's a response he is going to say oh yeah, oh yeah i'll be right there let me hop on the plane. Help me right there. Let me hop on the plane. Well there are other benefits besides seeing cool new value for value music as we're changing the music business

1:35:09 You'll also get alerted when we send out the bat signal for our live show and for that live show for that matter And when we publish the show within 90 seconds you get immediately Notified. We have transcripts. We have chapters all kinds of groovy stuff that you can't get from your legacy after thing How's the the transcripts guide? How does that product do it Oh, the turbo scribe dot AI very well and what I like about it is I, the transcript is done before i publish the show. I used to have to put a little dummy in there A little dummy transcript file that says Transcript is processing because it was literally processing. And now by the time, so the minute the show is mixed down you know I just take off the ending and put our little opening segment whichever we choose and then mix it down into MP3 and then first thing I do is upload to turboscribe.ai and its done before were even done with credits

1:36:11 And that's so I can just, well...I can publish the show with real transcripts in there. So it lives up to the name. I can't get it to...the speaker recognition is not as great They can recognize speakers but you know how many speakers do you want to recognize? Say two But then, you know we have so many voices in this podcast it gets very confused over who's saying what. Because of the clips? Yeah and it doesn't really... And if you go and see the other thing I was using otter.ai once I had said this is John C. Dvorak then no matter even if we hadn't recorded a show for a year I'd drag in an mp3 of a show that we did It would recognize your voice again That was very nice So the speaker name-it's not the hardest-It's not the worst thing to not have

1:37:01 but it could be improved upon. But it's free for us, so I'm not complaining! It's really fast...I like it Well, that little commentary right there is probably going to be listened to by the coders. Yeah! Leaf, leaf! We can fix that. Not just the coders but the CEO, Leaf. The CEO's gonna say hey boys and girls Hey North Koreans get out of Ukraine and code this up for me So that's what we call value for value. He gave us some value, he said hey I'm gonna give you this product and use it for free. He says John do you want a copy? Jay? I still haven't got my copy because i haven't sent him a note back yet. Oh well there ya go!

1:37:48 But that's one way you can open. So it's not a psychic product? No, it is far from it so people can help in many ways to help produce the show and say this is a time saver at time equals money always so we appreciate that We appreciate any value return to us in time talent or treasure A long-standing way that people have provided us with a treasure of with a time and talent Is the artwork I got another note from one of our one of our artists if you want to hear This is about the another wait.

AI Art Controversy, Artist Motivation

Digital artists expressed frustration over the influx of AI-generated submissions, noting a decline in motivation for hand-drawn work. The discussion compares the current AI shift to previous technological transitions, such as the introduction of Photoshop and clip art. Recent AI-generated Christmas advertisements from Coca-Cola are cited as an example of the technology's perceived lack of "soul" in commercial applications.

ai art· midjourney· digital art· photoshop· coca-cola

1:38:35 Oh, yeah I saw this note. Yeah and this has to be read from Sir Shug. Sir Shug who was one recently a couple of times he says as an NA artist it felt like sharing my experience with the hot topic of AI! As another Dutch master lamented it can be a real motivational killer and they said to Tante Neel by the way he also mentioned in his note where's um oh where's our other artists who hasn't been around? We have a bunch of them. Yeah, kidding? A whole bunch of just rage quit I noticed well a lot of them quit because they got the timing they get jobs and they don't listen to this show or become Democrats

1:39:18 This is since the influx of AI art. They've become very demotivated and he actually has made some sense, he said notice quite some time ago dramatic increase in AI submissions it was very discouraging at first I fought against it! I fought and kept plugging along doing what I did but a certain point I realized some of this AI stuff is winning And then I realized that compositions put together as hybrids were winning as well It was all confusing and conflicting After a bit I decided to simply get good at using AI but honestly something fell off and have yet to fully embrace it and know how To take advantage of it using AI in an effective manner. This is not to say there's no skill to producing effective AI art, I believe Darren O'Neill has found a great niche with his prompting as some of what he puts out is brilliant Francisco Scaramanga is one of the best artists contributing to the show and has a great sense of combining his skills with AI He's a great designer and a great prompt jockey hubba-hubba

1:40:15 There are also others using AI really well. And so he's, but he actually is very honored that that he has won several times but he says to echo fellow Dutch masters Tantaniel, Boisvert, Koob, It can be a very time-consuming and real challenging to do what it takes conceive of compose and execute a non AI piece that is worthy incapable of meeting with your approval anyway, so as I was so meaning of our approval has nothing to do with slickness or just reiterate that in fact comics are blogger uploads lots of slick art And we think it sucks. There's just it sucks horrible because he has no concept the idea concept

1:40:57 Something and that often comes from the show it has to be something that we do on the show that triggers Like gunfire, that triggers something in the artists to go and make something But this kind of reminded me back in the day when we first started You know a comic strip blogger is still one of the top winners. It doesn't mean he doesn't suck Okay He used to draw stuff by hand He used to draw stuff by hand and we've used a lot now some of his AI art We've used but he's on this rounds kick, which is dumb. And we told him not the round things gotta go But back in the day we had a lot of artists who were hand drawing using a Wacom tablet I would say way calm, but I know you say whack on Using a tablet drawing, you know doing stuff digital and I think we had similar conversations about Photoshop

1:41:51 clip art. Clip art was a big deal we would try to do you know go he used clipart that's not fair remember and then no yes and then these artists would say no I have licensed this clip art, oh yes that has happened Yes! And it was either Tantaniel or the other Who's the other one that was hates us? At this point they all hate us. And by the way, we're just trying to provide feedback We're not shitting on you or just trying to provide feedback It is a rare opportunity to be in the room with the art director

1:42:27 Because they people are saying this about you anyway behind your back, but now you get to hear it. Yeah It's gotta be beneficial service is a complete service to you completely as service Let's take it from us. It's a good they should be sending us money I'm say because of what they learn from nothing just complain. I'm just saying so You know yes? I think that the tools are changing and And I have to agree, I'm amazed at what Darren O'Neill gets done. But he has concepts and you all have concepts and there was someone else who sent me well this artist he hand drew these things and you didn't give him any note or mention okay it was they were pretty drawings but they weren't funny they didn't pertain to something that was said in the show

1:43:17 It's supposed to, it's also advertising art. It's not highfalutin' high concept This is just to draw people in like oh what is this? That must be a great episode or what does this show about So its not your run of the mill art You know and you can get people, you can draw people with all kinds of tools from a marketing perspective unlike by the way Coca-Cola Who created their latest ads for Christmas with AI and everyone hates it. People like this doesn't feel Christmassy at all! I don't know what you're referring to offhand, but... Oh no there was a... I can believe it Coca-Cola is a woke company now they're no good You want to hear a woke company? You got the Jaguar clip? Yes of course

Value for Value Art, AI Music Generation

The "value for value" community continues to contribute artwork and music, including high-quality AI-generated tracks that mimic the Motown sound. Producer MoFacts demonstrated the capabilities of modern AI music tools, which can now produce convincing vocals and instrumentation. The segment also reviews various art submissions, including a "Robo-Spear" concept and satirical depictions of political figures.

mofacts· ai music· rfk jr· suno· udio

1:47:21 Mmm. Okay, I'll give that to you Anyway we want to thank capitalist agenda who brought us the artwork for episode 1713 We titled that lipless wonder after the three million dollar a news model Caitlin did the lipless wonder and? We look at this we didn't even know it if it was AI If so how much it was it was a very capitalist agenda type piece who does these pieces and I actually used one of his pieces for the news letter, which we somehow overlooked. It was actually a Dynamite piece. It was the spy versus spy characters only they were both donkeys and it said Dem vs. Dem. Oh! We missed that. And some...I think it's a piece that came in later something when I saw it looking for... I decided to just look up capitalist agenda art because he is really good. I don't see it on the list

1:48:19 Was that... you clicked on his art when it was maybe an older piece? I think, yeah. Yes! It was an older piece. Ohhhh, yeah. Yeah there was... no 1709 is when he submitted it Yeah, yeah. We must have chosen something else for that episode Killer piece but thank you capitalist agenda we liked it we thought it was we thought it was good It was if we did look at I kind of like scaramangas Robo Robo spear as in Shakespeare like that a little bit The its nuts transition snack from sir net Ned was high on our list and

1:48:56 but it lacked something. I think it was the rabbit ears on RFK that kind of turned us off, um...I did use it for The Bat Signal today by the way most of these images whether we like them or not are used in the chapters so people do get exposure to them. Dame Kenny Benn who I know did this by hand. She had the first buddy of the United States write good concept, but the execution just didn't make sense it didn't really look like a challenge coin. I think it was Dame Kenny Bent who complained when we bitched about clip art yeah could be and it had the right...by the way I got to hold on

1:49:43 In the PO box. You remember, um... The constitutional lawyer Rob who took us out and we met the two former spooks from the NSA who were in Germany? Yeah So they sent me a mug Ooh! Yes Straight from an authentic NSA mug It was a coffee mug it has National Security Agency logo on one side And on the other side it has this super secret squirrel There's an actual squirrel that has a super secret badge on him. This is very cute, I like that they have humor over there at the NSA. You sure that supposed to be funny?

1:50:26 Yeah, when you see it's a cute squirrel. Yeah I think is what you mean? Are you telling me the dead squirrel are you telling me that the squirrels aren't real so we're telling yes and birds Darren did a cool piece which i think was meant for well It was meant for congratulating Ashley speed who is pow man they're on a roll over there Yeah, that will never hear you did like I said she's gonna be like very world-famous at some point is one of the greatest female racers ever and of course there she's gonna be end up in Indy and we're gonna call up they Call her up as a hey can we get some pit passes? Like who and she's gonna say who? All over my life. I'm sorry but your right What else was there

1:51:21 No, that was really the stuff we looked at. There were some other things... Everyone tries I know and everyone's trying to do stuff So the hybrids you try some hybrids people go with the times what can i tell you it's horrible? I hate it You know there's even some music now that I'm like toe-tapping Like oh wait a minute this is AI didn't even realize it Oh wait you got suckered You know who's doing- You're tapping your toe to some AI music? Do you know who is doing some really amazing, uh... AI music? Um, yeah. Bob Dylan Listen to this Tell me A do you think this is AI and then tell me who did it What is your miracle? What is your miracle? Every morning

AI Search Fails, Grok and Perplexity Testing

A test of AI search engines Grok, Perplexity, and ChatGPT revealed significant inaccuracies when identifying a prominent guest at the Al Smith dinner. All three models incorrectly identified a blonde woman seated near the podium as Melania Trump, despite her not being blonde or seated in that location. The failure highlights the current limitations of AI in processing real-world visual and contextual data.

grok· perplexity· chatgpt· al smith dinner· melania trump

1:52:23 So that is completely AI generated with a lot of work and prompting by MoFacts. I didn't care for it, had a very Motown-y vibe. I liked it. Mo and the Artifacts is the group yeah well I played it yesterday on or Wednesday on the BoosterGram Ball. People didn't know that was AI, like wow this sounds just like Motown. See once i set them up and said oh this is MoFax who did this then they didn't think about being AI very interesting well good as fun to do this stuff yeah but if people really had to pay what it costs they wouldn't be doing it and those days are coming Microsoft Copilot now $20 a month It Is? Oh Yeah!

1:53:19 I've never used it. I did do an AI test recently so i use Grok yes and I use perplexity perplexities not bad Well, if both of these were a complete fail Oh and here's what the question was I asked very specifically because I saw this again They should they played it. It's on YouTube and it was Jim Gaffigan yakking away at the At the dinner the Al Smith's mr.. Then Trump goes up there And he does some does another 10 minutes of material mm-hmm There is a blonde woman sitting next to the podium who seems to be in

1:53:57 Part of the either group that put this on or something because she's always kibitzing and she was sitting next to Gaffigan She's between gap. She is next at the podium between the podium and gaff again when she went he sat down Question who was this woman cuz she's a scene stealer? She's mugging than the cameras you doing a lot of work so I asked both perplexity and grok about Grock said it was Melania Trump, which wasn't sitting anywhere near the podium. And so that's way off. She's not and perplexity couldn't identify her So this is what good does that do me? And you where's this AI all of its isn't it has to be some person that we all know or they or that somebody knows

1:54:38 A very prominent position in a very prominent event. Who was it? They can't tell me I just asked Chad GPT and at the 2020 2024 Al Smith dinner, the prominent blonde woman seen at the event was first lady former First Lady Melania Trump She's not blonde! Prominent blonde woman Melania Trump Shes not blonde And she wasn't sitting there this is now we have three fails of this AI search It's crap No, it's no good. It's no good and it's not getting better Did you hear that the new chips they have to recall them because they're overheating? Yeah That's kind of old news is stocks don't oh yeah sure all right so as Bitcoin fine whatever but the yeah But so now we have three fails on a simple question And I know if I just took a picture of the image in circles her put an arrow and has posted it on

1:55:34 Any number of social networks someone would have the answer but these these great AI You know search engines they can't come up with that simple. No answer no none of them Thank you very much Capitalist Agenda and to all the artists who did their best. We appreciate it all, almost all of it gets used in the chapters and its fun to look at and great to have this resource noagendaartgenerator.com I hope that we get the people, the Dutch masters with you know, with their getting used to some of the new tools if appropriate and if not I hope you stick with it because you all are very good and its very appreciated what you do. No matter who we pick We love you all Right John? Yep! Okay Now let's get to The Treasure This is producers who support us financially List is not very long today No, not on a Thursday this is really piss poor To be honest about it It must have been in the newsletter again

CRM Exchange, SQL Database Services

Sherry Greenhouse of CRM Exchange discussed implementing a "value for value" model for industry roundtables. Another donor, Kim Killian, promoted SQL server database services through On-Site Data View. The hosts expressed mild suspicion toward "canned" PR notes but acknowledged the support of professional services within the listener base.

Sherry Greenhouse, Sarasota Florida $200 thank-you Sherry Managing partner of CRM Exchange with an X A leading media platform dedicated to enhancing the customer experience Inspired by the value for value model popularized by No Agenda We introduced a similar program tailored for CRM Customer Relationship Management And contact center vendors new to the industry

2:09:24 With a few key stipulations, we offered these vendors a seat at one of our four online roundtables. In return we asked them to contribute based on the value they received measured by the number of contacts gained through their participation We plan to continue this invitation in 2025, fostering growth and collaboration within the industry. Sherry keep us updated that's fantastic I love the idea more people should try that and i'll bet you're doing better than you would have expected so let us know Sherry Greenhouse thank you Sherry Kim Killian in New Hudson Michigan and she wrote is came as a check she wrote a note site data view

2:10:04 Donation 200 bucks, HelloNo Agenda. Thank you for your show and the information you share as a donation for you along with my donation note for all your SQL, there's another one! For all your SQL server database needs call on-site data view. We are an expert at trailing out this way he wanted to read it. I told ya! Well sorry I missed the cue. Yep. We are an expert of translating your unique business needs now This is ad copy that's a little too long. I think this is what we determined before the show. Well, when I saw it... Hold on a second let me bring it up When I saw it was on site data view letterhead no agenda show slash Jay Dvorak read donation $200 or so and says hello NOAgenda which to me is like thank you for your show and the information you share

2:11:00 Oh, so you think this may have been written by a machine? Well I'm thinking more like someone is out there saying hey you can get a cheap ad with these guys if you just say that you like their show and then give them your ad copy. That's what i was thinking I can see somebody thinking that because it is pretty, I would say this is a very impersonal note from Kim. Yes! Hello No Agenda Yeah hello no agenda and thank you for your show and the information you share which is something you will run into in a canned note from a PR company yes for example so we're on to you

2:11:42 Maybe, but the point is she did send it in and so you can get a hold of this operation if you want to. Okay because they do SQL server stuff which some people need and it's under www.citedataview.com So she got her ad in Yes But we're suspicious We're expert at translating your unique business needs into well-structured database solutions We need some database solutions. Now, if she could like Eli the Coffee Guy send us some database solutions we'd be a little more susceptible to this note." This is true yes one of the background tasks that is kind of interesting is the subtle draw I don't want to use the word bribe but Eli the Coffee Guy does supply the two of us with every month or every 2 months

2:12:42 Probably four pounds of coffee. Oh, yeah. Each he's got to be taking a hit from the what he's sending us There's no doubt I don't know how we all know one way or the other No But I mean he could be making money hands it could be Maxwell house and running the whole operation for all Reno We never met him So, uh... That's funny. And yes so there is that. A little more personal something more personable this idea does work you can get your ad copy read but it has to be a little better than this. Yeah and send us some database solutions so we can talk about it on the show. That what I need is a database solution! Exactly We all need more database solutions Thank You very much

2:13:31 Including including site trade view. Is that what it is? Site trade view? Site data view. Thank you all to our executive producers, we have two of them and our associate executive producers We will thank everybody who came in over $50 in our second segment We really do appreciate a time talent or treasure That is the no agenda way I've been doing it for well now on our 17th year and we can't imagine doing it any other way. Congratulations to our execs and our associate executive producers for episode 1714! Our formula is this... We go out, we hit people in the mouth. You were supported! Squirrel! Shut up, snake! So

RFK Jr. vs. Pharma, Ozempic Medicare Push

Mainstream media outlets are running segments suggesting that over half of U.S. adults are eligible for weight-loss drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy. RFK Jr. has vowed to investigate medical journals and pharmaceutical companies for "racketeering," alleging they are colluding to soak the government for expensive treatments. The discussion focuses on the potential for a massive financial impact on Medicare if these drugs become standard coverage.

rfk jr· ozempic· wegovy· medicare· big pharma

2:14:22 You know, all industries... Oh noagendadonations.com by the way I should probably mention that. Noagendedonations.com three times and you'll remember it for the rest of your life. So industry is freaked out they're freaked out about what Trump is bringing in especially RFK Jr., what are we gonna do? What's pharma going to do? What's food gonna do? Food lobby is gearing up by the way they're doing all their getting ready again get into fight with RFK jr. presuming that he gets confirmed and God forbid that he lives because I mean, he's the most... He stays healthy. I pray for his safety. I'm telling you this guy is going to be the most hated man in corporate America and Well in parts of corporate America In important parts The ones that pay for media You know Yes well That's important to old media Process yes well exactly not the podcasters Not us No no Can you imagine that?

2:15:21 If Novo Nordisk sent us some Mugovie and it had a note, we love your show! We love your show. Dear NOA Agenda, we love your show and we love what you do Instead, they've got a new gambit going on. Here comes the native ad here's the promotion on NBC. Well now to some surprising health news this morning turns out more than half of the nation's adults are eligible for the wildly popular weight loss drugs Ozimbic and Wagovi According to a new study from JAMA Cardiology, about 140 million could be candidates for the drugs. NBC medical contributor Dr Natalie Azar joins us now to break it down That's a whole lot of folks watching and listening right now What are the qualifications doctor Nat? To be considered Yeah so if we break that down Of that 137 million About 129 million people would be eligible to manage their leave Hold on a second stop it This is half the population Yup

2:16:20 Who are they kidding with this? Hey, it's science. Okay? Science! It's study...it's science, it's research you cannot Go against science. eligible for statins, which as we know are just almost ubiquitous because of the risk or their dramatic risk reduction in heart disease. And this comes at a very timely moment for us because last week there was a report that showed that about 75%

2:17:12 of Americans are either overweight or obese and in 1990 that number was just over 50 percent. And the estimate is that 80% of people are going to be so by 2050, so this is definitely one of those wake-up calls to say wow a lot of people are definitely eligible for this medicine. Eligible for this medicine? Right there right there the reporter that's given this big Native ad he says whoa gee it seems that we're getting fatter and fatter and fatter Why do you think that is well because does he do that? He does yes because of our other sponsor McDonald's come on as obvious so the big question who's gonna pay for it What does that mean insurance has to cover cuz these are very expensive medicine are very expensive, and that is the rub savanna So if we're talking about commercial insurance

2:17:56 Yeah, there's a little bit more wiggle room there in terms of covering for weight management. But take a look at what how Medicare covers this it is covered for diabetes It's covered for what's called secondary prevention for heart disease So if you're overweight or obese and you've had a heart attack or a stroke For example They will cover it but Medicare does not cover it for weight loss management alone We have spent a lot of time on our air talking about this I have patients who who are about to turn 65 and are doing really well in these medicines, and they already know that they probably won't be able to get it covered by Medicare. So again, it's studies like this that we hope will definitely move the needle on coverage. It's definitely something that is super important.

2:18:41 She said, I have a bunch of patients who are getting this drug and then they're gonna go to be 65 and go to Medicare. Now they're not going get the drug anymore. Well aren't they just... you know you can keep your old insurance there's all these other plans what she talking about? If you're affording it now- You really need me to spell it out If you can afford... yeah, wait let me try to psychically figure out what you're going to tell me. They're trying to soak the government for this stuff? Correct! And she even says at the end How exciting it is.

2:19:37 Yeah, and they're doing these studies. This is another thing RFKJ as we call them now RFKJ is going after is You know Rico for these studies and for the medical journals and all this I will you play that clip again Can you find it? That was the third clip in the series that you played in the last show where he's gonna go after these journals which are just corrupt. Here it is, I have the clip you ask we play and you know also bring all the medical journals on the New England Journal of Medicine, The Lancet, JAMA

2:20:16 into the Justice Department, as soon as I appoint an AG. And I'll say to them you guys are part of a racketeering syndicate! You're collaborating with these pharmaceutical industry lie to the American public about the efficacy and safety of these products and your causing enormous harms and we are gonna sue you both civilly for damages and were going to sue you criminally unless you come up with a plan right now is how you're gonna stop doing that so like hundred things that I'm going to do immediately. Yeah, I do. I do. I... yeah! Because nobody's really got a plan to go after these guys and everyone is freaking out with all the bad information You know they're smearing him left and right it's ridiculous Of course He has a lot of supporters including McCullough I'm a supporter? Are you kidding me? I am all in on RFKJ We've always liked the guy

CHAPTER 35 / 45 Discussion

AI Influencers, Digital Towers of Babel

The rise of "AI pimping" involves using stolen or generated images to create fake influencers on platforms like LinkedIn, OnlyFans, and Instagram. This trend is contributing to the "slop" filling social media networks, making them increasingly unattractive to real users. The hosts predict that the proliferation of unbelievably pretty, non-existent women will eventually lead to the collapse of current digital social structures.

ai influencers· onlyfans· linkedin· blue sky· stripchat

2:21:20 So we're talking early did that book on Fauci the guy was great. That was great We were talking about AI before the break and there's a new term which I'd not heard of called AI pimping Have you heard of AI pimping? No this is influencers On Instagram tik-tok etc who are using Stolen images, is what the story says. A real-life adult content creators and using it to hype up their profile. So, what's your LinkedIn fake handle? What's her name again you have a female profile Becky so you could make Becky You could take like a Scaramanga type AI image and make Becky an influencer And first of all make real money for once Make real money Well Becky has the potential Yeah

2:22:20 And this is rampant and the adult content creators... This is not a bad idea. I already know where it's headed, what your report's going and I think you might be onto something Oh this is huge! And this is this is another part of what's gonna take it all down This is going to create the whole internet is Aaron O'Neill, and I should team up. Yes We should know we should bury the hatchet no but God No No you need a team up with scare manga he hates you so you need to bury the handle manga would be yeah well He yeah, and have him bring Becky to life oh

2:22:57 Becky would have a profile on LinkedIn that they won't quit. And by the way, you can be an influencer on LinkedIn! There's money there... Yeah, but I think you want to move Becky of only fans and there you go The late one in the later ones. The newest one is strip chat. You should check that out Sorry John. I'm busy getting clips for the show. I don't know what you're doing Well, I'm looking at clips for this show on strips chat. I haven't found any Remember chat roulette do you remember chat roulette? Oh

2:23:34 Yeah, I remember that. Okay for those who are not to remember chat roulette chat roulette you hook up your Logitech cam gross your little your little ball cam and you plug it into your computer and do like a two five frames a second And this chat roulette was a program that you ran on your computer and it would just connect you randomly to a different person. Then, you could either decide to stay on that person or go...or just let it roulette...roulette around to the next one and guaranteed within eight twists of the wheel there was some naked hairy dude masturbating. Troy? Two!

2:24:15 Every single time I feel like chat roulette is cool. Oh, what did I just see? So what is strip chat what does it do It's a it looks I couldn't I just check I just ran into it by accident Uh-huh. It seems to be a competitor with only fans Oops How did that happen? Yeah, yeah what? What?! I don't understand! There's gambling!? And so it seems to be a competitor with Snapchat and it might be something that... No not Snapchat. You said OnlyFans. Something for Becky to think about. OnlyFans you said and not Snapchat only fans Oh I'm sorry yes oh yeah you're right well OnlyFans is the competitor. And there was another thing I think this came up because there was like there's a black guy that has been

2:25:10 putting up, and I think this is on Instagram or it's on TikTok. It's hard to say because I pick it up off of Twitter. This black guy has been interviewing or picking up interviews done by these exotic dancers and I mean, would have clipped some of this stuff if I could but it was these exotic dancers singing the blues. Some of them are kind of pretty. They're like good looking girls singing the blues about all the economies in the tank, nobody's going to strip clubs anymore. And it goes on and on and on about nobody going to strip clubs. I'm thinking about this

2:25:48 Strip clubs have got to have been a fad to begin with because I'm old enough to remember and you probably aren't old enough to remember Topless bars Which had taken over California back in the day during the Condor era when Carol Doda had it popularized that became legal walk around topless in a bar These weren't strip clubs. These are just bars and all the waitresses had no tops on and it was very common there. You were gonna say it was dynamite? I heard you about to say it was dynamite It was dynamite! And so, uh... That was like- All of a sudden boom gone Well what has happened- I think strip clubs are doomed

2:26:32 So this of course doesn't, I mean Becky does not have to be you know have to take her clothes off. Becky can just be Becky You do the writing, Scaramanga does the photos and you just have to do a day in life Oh good morning everybody! You know Becky's in her nightie just getting out of bed We could find a good voice No we don't... well Dame Jennifer No, no we can use 11 labs. Oh you don't want to cut her in on the action huh? You just want to give it... okay alright maybe she's got a good voice sorry Jen I tried. We'll cut her in. I am but got a Silicon Valley mentality Cut her in!

2:27:12 Anyway, this is happening. You're actually probably a little late to the game and it is fulfilling... Yes this is the drawback It's fulfilling my prayers which has been to take down the digital towers of Babel and fill their stairwells with AI slops so they become unattractive to use And this will happen to every social media network They will just be filled with unbelievably pretty women Yeah, that don't exist. That don't exist and it's going to suck and hopefully... And you by the way! You could make Becky trans and put her on Blue Sky. You'd probably corner the market

2:27:52 I'm just telling you. Again, I don't have a Blue Sky account and never been there but again the Twitterverse is grabbing these clips from Blue Sky and reposting them and some of the trans women that are on there are just horrible! Well i dont know what your reference point is so... Oh my god Let's move on to another huge issue, this time not in the pornographic sense. But in the jobs market there are some real problems with AI and the job bots. There is a new generation of AI

CHAPTER 36 / 45 Discussion

AI Job Bots, Silicon Valley Deflation Model

A new generation of AI tools is automating the job application process, allowing users to apply to hundreds of positions instantly with optimized keywords. This has created a feedback loop where companies use AI bots to screen the massive influx of AI-generated resumes, making it nearly impossible for real humans to connect. The segment critiques the Silicon Valley "eyeballs" model and its failure to account for the rising energy and compute costs of AI.

ai job bots· resumes· silicon valley· hiring· automation

2:28:29 job app, applier apps. So you go to a site and upload your resume and give it some keywords and then it scans for the job boards and sees oh this position just got posted. It adds the keywords from that job posting onto your resume. It writes a chat GPT-4 cover letter for you and submits on your behalf so you end up with this thing where this job gets posted It has been online for an hour and it's got 500 applications already. And none of the 500 people that actually applied to it have any idea that they actually applied to it. And so if a real person actually wants to get in

2:29:08 try to apply for that job, they're swamped in all this AI generated garbage. And the other thing that's really sad is most companies now and the more resumes they get, the more likely they are to do this use AI bots to screen resumes and make sure they have all the right keywords and they have all the right cover letters and all that kind of stuff And then the AI will rank the people that applied. It turns out that the bots that auto-apply for jobs train themselves on software you can buy to screen resumes, so it's a lot better at making cover letters and making resumes that pass through the screen of an AI screener bot

2:29:50 So it's even harder for a real person to actually get their resume in front of a real person these days. These AI companies start charging what it actually costs. This will all go away, but they're stuck in that loop. They're stuck in the Silicon Valley loop of get audience! Who cares? Well the Silicon Valley loops... That all began with what was called back in the 70s and then 80s What was called The Learning Curve And that's what evolved into Get Eyeballs But The Learning Curve was developed by the hard disk companies

2:30:34 who saw that these hard disks were gonna increase in capacity every year, they're gonna double every year. And so they priced them out for like two years from now so you gotta... So every disk that you bought was losing money because down the road they're gonna make all this money and it was called The Learning Curse specifically and it was... That is the genesis for this eyeball idea where just keep getting eyeballs eventually you'll do okay which was the basis for YouTube TV and it was the basis for Twitter and all the rest of them. So, that theory does work but it breaks most people. It doesn't really work because Twitter never really did all that well as a profit generator No but it made somebody money And podcasting... meh

2:31:26 You know, Spotify spent a billion dollars on that concept. Don't worry! We'll just get a whole bunch of Hollywood stars and we'll make them exclusive!" I read that article too you said it to me... The beauty did not work so it does not necessarily work and now they're stuck between a rock in a hard place because they need to keep brazing money to make the models better which costs 100 billion dollars a model starting choice for everyone. Nobody's gonna argue with you about the fact that these things, the problem you have with your argument is that if it costs 50 bucks to make one of these pieces of art using the computer and AI and you're getting it for free? You're not gonna discourage people from using it. Your gonna make a wow let me get this while I can! I'm saving money there's shipping money with every piece of art

2:32:19 Put on our art generators probably a thousand dollars worth of art. Yeah, yeah But there's a couple other things here We have the entropy equation because they're out of content the what they're doing now The AI companies are now going to open Captions Open captions org I think which is community driven captions for movies and television series and they're now scraping all of that so guess what how stuff is going to sound when it's using movie scripts. It's gonna sound like a movie script! Everything's gonna sound like a movie script or a Seinfeld episode, and it's not going to improve yet it costs more money and they need more energy continuously and they're not charging people for it. So the equation is off you've taught me that Silicon Valley

2:33:10 It's always the opposite direction. We'll get the people now, it's expensive but as we move along it will draw less power and have higher output, produce less heat and this is the opposite! It's bound to fail Not once it starts producing more power with less energy blah blah blah But yeah...we haven't seen that Generally speaking Silicon Valley is based on a deflation model Which is always surprising me. Everything gets cheaper and faster and better, but cheaper's the key to this whole thing And if it's not going to turn the corner at some point and become cheaper and faster Then it's violating the model and it will fail Thank you

CHAPTER 37 / 45 Discussion

Google Antitrust Trial, Chrome Spin-off

The Department of Justice has filed a motion to force Google to sell its Chrome browser following a ruling that the company maintains an illegal monopoly on search. The DOJ also warned that Google could be forced to divest from its Android operating system if monopolistic practices continue. Analysts suggest Google may be shifting its focus from search to data sales as AI begins to disrupt traditional search models.

google· alphabet· antitrust· chrome· android

2:34:00 And even people who had a great model all figured out they're destined for problems too. Hey, unless they can tell me who that blonde sitting there next to the podium is... These things are crap! on Alphabet, Google's parent company in the biggest antitrust trial of this century. The Justice Department has filed for the tech giant to separate from its Chrome browser – you probably use it regularly along with 3.5 billion people globally. It also asked a DC federal judge dealing with the case to warn Google that if monopolistic misconduct continues it should lose its Android mobile phone operating system as well

2:34:45 It all revolves around Google's search. In August, the judge ruled that Alphabet had maintained an illegal monopoly over how we searched the internet reaping massive rewards from advertising as a result. Google is now hoping that the antitrust lawsuit goes the same way Microsoft did in early 2000s – that was thrown out on appeal but with the US changing administrations if anyone tells you they know what will happen don't listen So this is interesting. You know, Google has full control over most of the browser market with Chrome spinning that off? How would that change things I mean will that really change things this is kind of your corner. If they're gonna spin it off they're gonna end up keeping a piece of it like NBC or like Comcast's gonna do with SpinSyn or whatever the hell thing is called. I said earlier

2:35:40 spinco spinco so there'll be a piece of the action might actually make the company more valuable but I'm almost of the opinion that they want to get rid of chrome because they could have got these browser deals with everybody else including Apple iPhone yeah and it's also under scrutiny it is this search deal yeah and And they seem to be, somebody told me this about a year ago saying you know what? You're kidding yourself if you think that the future of Google is search because there

2:36:16 Dropping the ball on it anyway. Oh, it's AI No, it's not a I its data selling data Yeah Well they've been doing that that's what they're doing and that's where their real money is to be made And so I don't know III really don't know I think the browser has always been well The Android apps I think that's really if they had to give up dad would be a big deal yeah I think I think that may be on deck That maybe on that is a big deal because the Android app Is a marked leader in the world. He has no competitions come up You think something would have showed up by now, but they can track everything through Android They track how you're holding the phone if your walking that dog if you're pooping Everything if you're reading in bed, yeah It's worth money is who so I have it. I have a question for you that I've been racking my brain I can't figure it out Probably about a year ago we talked about

CHAPTER 38 / 45 Discussion

Pegasus vs. Paragon, Ronan Farrow Documentary

Ronan Farrow's new HBO documentary, "Surveilled," explores the world of commercial spyware, specifically focusing on the Israeli companies NSO Group (Pegasus) and Paragon. The film highlights how this technology is used by governments to target journalists and political dissidents. The discussion notes a potential "spyware war" within the U.S. government regarding which platforms are authorized for use by federal agencies like DHS and ICE.

pegasus· paragon· ronan farrow· hbo· spyware

2:37:11 Pegasus, the Pegasus spyware which is the competitor to the Israeli Paragon. And Paragon got... we had a couple of stories I think maybe even some clips about and i think was an executive order Biden said Paragon is out! We can't have Paragon it was make sure I'm saying you're right was at Paragon let me make sure I'm saying the right one Yeah, no. Yes Paragon versus Pegasus and the Pegasus spyware was brought in by the NSO group

2:38:04 and was being sold into the US government. And that really happened from between when Obama left office, and Trump came in for four years it was remember Blinken? And all those jimokes they had a lobbying firm which was Mercury something or other...and they were the ones that were using their contacts to bring in this Pegasus software to get the Paragon stuff out and they had all these stories, oh Paragon killed... it was on... who was the reporters who got chopped up at the embassy? I don't know. You remember The Guy

2:38:49 He was a... Keshoggi? Keshoggi, yeah. That he had that spyware on his phone and so we needed to... Yeah that was the Pegasus stuff and so Paragon brought in you know they brought in venture capital guys they had I think Redpoint and they brought in this group but that was in DC who would just been just kind of left the administration during Trump So there's this ongoing war about who spyware should we be worried about, and who spyware should we have. And so Pegasus is the one that is the current Biden administration's darling but now we have Ronan Farrow—sorry Satchell Ronan O'Sullivan Farrow—who has a documentary coming out on HBO

2:39:47 About spyware, but only really one side of it and he happened to be It's the view but it's not horrible from the view. It's more about Ronan listen to how he's discrediting one over the other and let's see what we think The play is here these cases affect 450 million people is a violation of their rights What we ended up finding was actually the tip of the iceberg. So, can you tell our audience a little bit more about what you mean by spyware and is there a way for us to protect ourselves even in the most rudimentary way? Well the film is about

2:40:53 spyware hacking technology that can hijack your phone in the way you just heard about, sold by private companies to either governments who want easier access. You know even if it's in this government not every goverment office has CIS technology. So this means more people... I said, okay. You said it was some other pharaoh? No! Ronan's full name is Satchel Ronan O'Sullivan Pharaoh. Oh, okay. It's technology. He's developing...I just noticed this but I heard him the other day too he's developing a lisp He is good catch this government not every government office has the CIA's technology, right? so this means just more people can use it around the world and here and The way to resist. This is there's a few simple things Reboot your phone every day Not every form of spyware is foiled by this but some are

2:41:44 They always told us this at the department. You mean turn it off and turn it on? Yes, don't just leave your phone on all the time The other thing is this may sound obvious but keep your phone updated Uh-huh, okay. So I'm already feeling I'm smelling a rat here. He's already promised retribution against media the media and journalists you think he'll use this spyware to go? Yeah, not talking about Trump. I have two people including us! I'll tell you I've been talking to privacy law experts all day doing this new piece that's coming out and They all believe that this is a moment where there could be a free-for-all. So, that's where calling your reps can be important right now. They don't think the Fourth Amendment will hold in terms of unreasonable search and seizure? Didn't you ever explain what the Fourth Amendment is to them? The Fourth Amendment to the Constitution provides that we should be safe and secure on our papers or effects are things from unreasonable search and seizure and that is government reach into our private lives Well, the reality Sonny is that

2:42:42 There have been courts interpreting that, obviously over the decades. And what privacy advocates say is the case law has really eroded how that principle applies to data privacy specifically. Now there have been some rulings that are more supportive of aggressive enforcement and some that chip away at it. There's a lot of loopholes And what you see in a lot of these Western democracies where this has spiraled out of control is, you wind up with the situation where if the judiciary or the executive branch is saying oh there's some thin basis. We came up with an excuse for retaliating against a political enemy suddenly it's getting used against anyone that the political people in power don't like. And its usually done under the guise of national security. Exactly that and thats why the Department of Homeland Security and ICE purchasing this tech that I've been writing about from another company called Paragon

2:43:27 is frightening because what the experts say is DHS is often the place where they acquire controversial technology that's a little legally questionable and then use it as an excuse for national security. Is that Chrissy Noem now? Yeah, oh my gosh! So he's discrediting Paragon versus Pegasus. Ronan, what's our government's responsibility in terms of having access to this technology while also protecting the rights of our fellow citizens and what are they doing about this Well, the answer is not enough. So in response to a print story that you see me do in this film, the Biden administration did pass an executive order saying okay the US government shouldn't buy foreign spyware that's been used in abusive ways to crack down on dissent and so on

2:44:12 Now, since then what we've seen is there's these loopholes. DHS can purchase this kind of technology now they're in this case it's from a company where the argument in favor would be that hasn't specifically been used an abusive context but what illustrates is there's a lot of loopholes and were not seeing aggressive enforcement. And I'll tell you Sarah one thing that I heard from all of these companies that make this tech... In this film I get cameras into where they code Pegasus for instance in Israel They say look we're arms manufacturers. We make a new powerful kind of weapon and it is a weapon There's hundreds of cases where this has been linked to violence Wow And they say there it's not our fault that there's a no Geneva Convention equivalent There's no international law preventing this from being used in certain destructive ways So we do just need more of a framework

2:45:02 And the US government could do that. It's going to take legislators really pushing them. Good luck! Exactly. Is it time to go back to the rotary phone? Yes So I'm just trying to understand this feels like some kind of setup because we have two competing software pieces and that executive order came out against Paragon which to me feels like he's kind of going anti-paragon and pro Pegasus, which is an Israeli spyware. I'm confused by it. Do you think that they're trying to rekindle the business on the outside as they are preparing to leave? Or is this just completely random that this documentary appears?"

2:45:52 I have to watch the documentary, maybe we can come up with something. It'll be revealed in the documentary. There will be some moment and there you go... Oh what's this? Okay, I get it now. Well it is on HBO streaming now Is it on now? Yes, it came out yesterday. I have not watched it but I think we should pay attention to this because... I've been watching a fascinating documentary on Netflix. I only watched the first episode but it was interesting enough that you want to watch it The Vince McMahon document about his bio, the guy who ran the World Wrestling Operation. It's fascinating and I would recommend people take it check it out and McMahon currently or at least when they filmed a couple years ago he just did his whole face has become this kind of goofy looking thing it's just like what happened to you?

CHAPTER 39 / 45 Discussion

Nikki Haley vs. Tulsi Gabbard, Iran Rhetoric

Nikki Haley launched a sharp critique of Tulsi Gabbard's appointment as Director of National Intelligence on her SiriusXM podcast. Haley accused Gabbard of being a "sympathizer" for Russia, Iran, and Syria, citing her past opposition to military strikes and sanctions. During the segment, Haley notably referred to Iran as "our number one sponsor of terrorism," leading to host commentary on the accidental honesty of the statement.

nikki haley· tulsi gabbard· iran· dni· siriusxm

2:46:50 It's just an interesting story. Okay so far I only watched the first part, but it was a multi-parter huh? Yeah yeah which I don't like that but it seems deep enough that it keeps you interested some okay now I have some clips um just some brand new clips of Tulsi Gabbard's another person they're going after. Yes, and so everybody's favorite Nikki Haley's decided to take up the cudgel she's the one who did not bring it into the operation at The Trump administration and she's got a podcast on Sirius kind of a podcast

2:47:35 And she, out of the blue and you can tell she's reading every single item here. Out of the blue she goes after Tulsi Gabbard and why she should not be picked to be the DNI. Tulsi Gabbard director of national intelligence now everybody loves that she is now saying she's a Republican but I have always said let's look at What they've said, what their actions are. DNI that is the president's top intelligence advisor It supposed to fairly represent the views of 18 separate intelligence agencies and units it has the authority over a hundred billion dollar annual US spy budget

2:48:19 hundred billion dollar US annual spy budget and it holds sway over which secrets we declassify. That's a big deal this is a job for an honest broker without any pronounced policy biases so hold that thought for a second okay all right let's hold that thought for a second first of all the DNI was created if you recall during our show We voted for it, I believe. You and I we said hey let's do this is a good idea the DNI was done as a way because this is after 9-11 Ah yes And it was done to court because all 9 11 had all these you know this agency knew this... We started up! We weren't talking to each other It was no good

2:49:05 They weren't talking to each other, so D&I was created out of the blue to make them talk to each other. Not to control their budgets or their secrets or anything else and this is bullcrap what she's saying! Of course it's Nikki! It's Nikki You know what this is? So Nikki goes on, if you want to hear bullcrap we're going to play there. If you want to hear it you can stop me Yeah I want to here some bull crap But if you wanna hear more bull crap everything Nikki says It's like wait a minute You just have to, this is the one of the worst presentations. This is a smear job but it's like falls on deaf ears to anyone who actually knows what's going on so let's go next What are the facts about Tulsi Gabbard? Now was this just a straight-up video where she's just talking to the camera

2:49:55 She's reading this and she is a video, and she's got some partner there who's named Chaney I think it's her first name. Oh really? And this is a some obscure serious FM Show she has I never heard of it, but this was played on. It was it was recorded and pushed out there Let's get the facts she opposed ending the Iran nuclear deal She opposed sanctions on Iran She opposed designating the Iran military as terrorists who say death to America every single day. Every day! She said that Donald Trump turned the US into Saudi Arabia's prostitute No, bitch This is going to be the future head of our national intelligence

2:50:47 In Congress, Tulsi criticized Trump's authoritarian strike against Qasem Soleimani. Now I will remind you he was considered the master of death in Iran She said he had no justification whatsoever for killing him She tried to limit Trump's war powers against Iran. She tried to cut our annual defense budget so that we couldn't punish Iran and hinder their influence Reminder, Iran is our number one sponsor of terrorism Oh my goodness! And this is supposed to work? This is supposed to change somebody's mind or what is the point That's what I'd like to know but there was a little gotcha in there at the end

2:51:32 If you listen to the last couple sentences replay them, you're gonna hear what wait a minute. What do you what? She said he had no justification whatsoever for killing him She tried to limit Trump's war powers against Iran. She tried to cut our annual defense budget so that we couldn't punish Iran and hinder their influence Reminder, Iran is our number one sponsor of terrorism There were a couple things in there Well the first one that got my attention... Iran is OUR number-one sponsor terrorist Our! Like us

2:52:15 There you go. Hey, we pay those guys good money now the point and that matches our basic Do name Mohammed everybody else tells us that this is bullcrap. You're in bed with Iran Yeah We pay those guys top dollar sometimes just pallets of money cash money And we do to do some terrorism and now as she tried to cut that off a horrible Tulsi So she, so, so Gah-uh, uh... Nikki says that Iran is our number one spot. What? Okay! So the sun's up with that. So let's go on to the next clip. She went to Syria in 2017 for a photo op After Assad and his wife were in Vogue magazine for their photo op but we'll just forget that

CHAPTER 40 / 45 Discussion

White Helmets, Syrian Chemical Weapons Debate

The debate over Tulsi Gabbard's 2017 meeting with Bashar al-Assad resurfaced, with Nikki Haley labeling Gabbard's skepticism of chemical weapon attacks as "disgusting." The hosts counter that many of the reported attacks were faked or staged by groups like the White Helmets. The segment criticizes Haley's reliance on establishment talking points and her defense of the military-industrial complex.

bashar al-assad· white helmets· syria· tulsi gabbard· nikki haley

2:53:09 with Bashar al-Assad while he was massacring his own people. Pretty much disproven or as Nikki might say debunked She said she was skeptical that he was behind the chemical weapons attacks now this to me is disgusting Because Cheney you and I were at the United Nations When Assad did those chemical attacks on those children, yeah And you can go back and look at a speech. I gave holding up pictures of dead children who had been killed by chemical attack remember that for her to say that Assad was not behind that. Literally, everything she said about that were Russian talking points! Every bit of that! That was Russian propaganda! After Russia invaded Ukraine, Tulsi Gabbard literally blamed NATO our Western alliance responsible for countering Russia She blamed NATO for the attack on Ukraine

2:54:09 And the Russians and the Chinese echoed her talking points, and hers interviews on Russian and Chinese television. All right hold on a second first of all The White Helmets faked all that nonsense there's ample evidence... And the missiles were shown to be bullcrap they were actually sent by their other side and they would do that whole thing was debunk debunk debunk and we did it on our show probably as probably earlier than anybody else The whole thing was a fraud. Yeah, and remember it was Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston driving around with Assad all buddy-buddy and then all of sudden he was killing children and she had a picture of it... dead children! Remember when I held up dead children? That was awesome She's horrible horrible horrible woman And then the NATO thing which is you know we've discussed to death Yes yes of course if course NATO is to blame

2:55:02 That's the premise of the last 10 years of this show we've talked about that ever since Victoria Newland and the cookies. Yeah, and Brennan being there. Brennan everybody! Okay? This is... There's more?! She's reading this from somebody has put her up to this oh I'm sure she bought into it because she's not that bright. The Boeing Corporation Maybe Onward. Tulsi Gabbard pushed for dropping charges against WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange and pardoning National Security Agency contractor Edward Snowden, both whom were accused of leaking highly sensitive US secrets that put Americans in danger. Yeah okay what what Americans were in danger from that? I don't know

2:56:00 And what was wrong with that? I mean, Trump probably would have done it if it hadn't been for those. According to rumors this is not a provable fact but Trump wanted to because he liked WikiLeaks because they helped him get elected in 2016 so he would have pardoned Assange or stopped the... Yeah. Assange's not even an American citizen! Why do you pick him up?! All right, I'm glad there's only one last clip because Nikki Haley is horrible Yes, exactly. That's the point of these clips. Oh thanks! Alright last clip... So now she's defended Russia? She's defended Syria. She's defended Iran and she's defended China

A social experiment involved a woman running a man's Hinge account for three days, leading to her feeling "depressed" and "hating women" due to the lack of engagement.

2:59:04 How about the, oh now this is actually a good one because it's not a bad one. This is not a bad clip and I'll save the bad ones to when people are going nuts. This is a very interesting little story some girl developed she's kind of a pretty girl that was bragging about how easy it is to use dating apps and so her one of her friends said hey You think so? A guy says to her, why don't you be me on dating apps and tell me how it goes. And I thought this was pretty revealing. So one of my guy friends gave me permission to make a Hinge account for him because I was telling him how easy dating is with dating apps and he was telling me that it's incredibly difficult. And I was like Pete, you must be doing something wrong! He gave me permission to create an account for him and just run the account

2:59:53 I've been a virtual boy for three days and I've never felt this bad about myself. I feel like a freaking loser trying to get these girls to like me, and I'm starting to hate women because when I say I mean Pete because that's the account i'm using. Petes about a six but im so desperate Im liking the twos and threes and even they wont like me back! Pete which is a 6 So what level of delusion has entered women heads What is going on? It is so difficult dating as a boy. I hate it! I'm on day three of being a boy and I hate women, and I am more depressed than ever Well you have just uncovered something very important This is the reason why men are becoming women

3:20:35 He's Trump, he's Trump the president! This month, the World Council for Health has called for a global recall of all vaccines because worldwide 40 thousand deaths with the vaccine. We must acknowledge that COVID-19 genetic injections cause far more harm than good and provide zero benefit relative to risk for the young and healthy. These experimental gene therapy treatments can damage your children as well as yourself. The typical standard for any biologic product is 50 deaths per foot off the market, 50!

3:21:16 not 40,000. They do not reduce COVID-19 infection which is treatable and not terminal so when there is a global recall by an international organization this committee ought to be having emergency meetings furthermore the most recent data demonstrates that you are more likely to become infected or have disease or even death if you've been vaccinated compared to the unvaccinated people This is shocking to hear, but it is what the data are showing. 79% of people with trauma crimes were fully vaccinated that is prima facie evidence that the vaccines have completely failed they can damage your heart, your brain, your reproductive tissue and

3:23:01 If Russia and China or other actors are going to seek to undermine our capabilities in space, we're going to be ready for that. I also would like for adversaries to know what we can do.
