Bulb Heads

00:00 The woman has three arms. Starting four more years and broadcasting live from the heart of the Texas Hill Country here in FEMA Region Number 6, In The Morning everybody. I'm Adam Curry. And from Northern Silicon Valley we congratulate New York City on having a new mayor! I'm John C. Dvorak. It's Crackpot & Buzzkill! Happy New Year everybody! Woohoo yeah! 2026! Woooo! It was awesome! Awesome!

00:47 Is it just me or was this one of the quietest transitions we've ever had? And with that I mean, I got very few texts this year. I got one! Fireworks seemed a lot A lot more. Oh, we were rained out. We had it was raining here. It's raining as we speak which is the first time I can ever remember it raining on January 1st in the Bay Area and so it's raining So there's the fireworks they yeah They had him you could hear booms but there was no where you couldn't see anything No, it was here and in Fredericksburg Texas very very muted not a lot of people shooting stuff off television Was

01:33 extraordinarily boring this year. Like the same old dumb stuff they do... No one has any new ideas for what to do on New Year's on television It seemed like the most exciting thing was, on X people saying hey Grock put a bikini on her I missed that one Oh goodness you haven't seen that? no You haven't seen fat JD. No, so there's this thing now is you post a picture of yourself and then you do at Grok put a bikini on her and then the next picture is that same woman with the bikini

02:20 Oh, that's a great feature. It just goes on and on! You don't have to do it in your own brain anymore. Too lazy. Like hey Grok... but then they're putting bikinis on dogs you know there's like hey Grok show me the war criminal you know and there's Netanyahu yeah all of this stuff it's It's well worth the 1.3 trillion dollars, I think it is perfect! We're being entertained... Well back to your thesis about things being slow, I have to say this morning they were doing a question and answer thing on one of the news stations and they had all these guys around the round table saying are New Year parties over? I think so

03:08 And they were all and everyone was saying yeah, well you know you don't have to him all the time. And then they said and then they had brought up the question What about kissing at New Year's? Oh I don't know it doesn't seem that important to me what's the point dude we were in bed at 1030 I got a show tomorrow. I had time for this nonsense. I'll kiss you now good night baby. I gotta get up early Yeah, I think the last real Good New Year's Eve party I attended. Well, there were two 1987 I was just new at MTV and they said hey you're gonna do our live coverage I'm like, oh that sounds cool And so they put me in my my three-foot hair literally on Times Square with one bodyguard

03:57 and the camera was up on one time. Oh yeah, well it was... there weren't I mean in 87 86? 87 ADM not sure It wasn't you know they weren't running around like oh ISIS might be getting you! No people just showed up and they were hanging out and they weren't you know it was a big black dude. It was a white dude White dude but he had a big black gun if that helped And, you know... and they had the camera up on one time square. You couldn't really hear anything but that was one. But the real New Year's Eve party I think was 1990 no 89 i'm sorry and it was... You didn't have a year 2000 party? That's the big one 99! I was back in Holland for that new years which was insane because the Dutch they just love their fireworks

04:55 Even though it's outlawed in Amsterdam, everyone loves their fireworks. There are videos online of entire streets with burnt-out cars... I'm not kidding! And of course this happened. A blaze so great there was no saving the church tower In the middle of the night as Amsterdam residents were ringing in the new year a major fire broke out in the historic Vondelkerk Church Firefighters tried to save the over 150-year old structure, but they could not enter. The risk that the church would collapse was too great as they doused it with water from hoses authorities closed down the streets around the central Amsterdam monument and local media said that nearby homes were evacuated because of the burning debris an alert was issued about heavy smoke and officials declared a regional emergency

05:47 It really is horrific. I've just been watching... This is the mayor of Amsterdam. ...almost violently large, the church is very close to many houses so apart from the loss of a magnificent monument for all people living nearby it's really scary Built in 1872 the church is in the center of Amsterdam and just a short walk from the popular van Gogh Museum The cause of the fire still unknown as investigators looking fireworks were involved or not or not fireworks or nuts This isn't obviously involved. There's raining there this is a travesty though this this Church man It's a beautiful church it completely destroyed was yes, it looked a lot like the Notre Dame fire

06:36 where the whole, you know the steeple everything, the spire I think you call it completely on fire and then the roof collapsing. It was bad but i think that's very typical of Holland. You know everyone's just so... what's the word? I'm looking for not depressed but they're just apathetic they like don't care like life sucks this is it Russia's gonna kill us whatever we give up And I think that's also... Take our bikes. Hey, Vladimir take my bike! Yeah and i think that's kind of what's happening with Gen Z in the Zumwurfaffen. I have a feeling that they're also like yeah you know everything sucks it's no good who cares? But if Gen Zs are out in force not being covered I have no clips I don't know what to do about it because of the lack of clips in Iran Now interesting you bring that up

07:30 So, of course we see what's happening in Iran and I can play it. But no we don't see what is happening you should tell people what is happening It's just... Oh well I do... ...being talked about or discovered there are a few bloggers covering it Let me see I have a... Yes good Yeah got a couple clips so I'll tell ya up front right away I'm like oh! its kicking off in Iran so I go to YouTube and look for Iran Gen Z And there's hundreds, hundreds of videos in Farsi and they all go like this. Iran Gen Z protest live update Farsi-Farsi, Gen Z Farsi-Farsi, Khamenei Farsi-Farsi Tehran university protests and they're all from

08:20 You know, like these outfits like, let me see. News Nation but it's not the news nation you think it is? I think they're pretty much all AI generated It seems to me that whatever is happening and I do have an interesting clip where thats brought up It seems like the Gen Z op is trying to take credit for it or try and move that in. Hey, it's the Gen Zeds that are doing this! But it's not working because there's just...it's not being reported that way here's um

08:57 Let me see. What is this one? Oh yeah, this is one thing I found. Wow! What a nat pop! Oh no, this thing is full of nat pops. Anger sparked by an economy in turmoil and soaring living costs. I should actually point out that the only clips i could get were from British outfits including BBC. This is from Channel 4. In the last year, Iran's currency has lost nearly half of its value against the US dollar. Inflation has seen food prices rise by 72% according to one Tehran resident whose identity we are protecting everyday items are becoming unaffordable Families who once belonged to the middle class and now worried about paying their rent

09:55 In the past, people worried about affording meat and fruit. Now they are struggling to buy basic items like rice and eggs. In my view, people are truly exhausted. They've reached their breaking point. They no longer want this regime and a demanding change." The protests soon spread outside the capital with similar scenes taking place in Isfahan, Shiraz in the south and Mashhad in the northeast In the city of Farsa, a group of people are seen trying to break into a government building. And no major crackdown from the government yet Iran's leaders avoiding the heavy police response seen in previous protests instead saying they're open to dialogue offering to listen to the demands of protesters

10:37 The government will listen patiently, even if there are harsh voices because we believe that our people are patient enough. The government's job is to hear the voices and help them reach a common understanding to solve the problems that exist in society." There is no calm outside universities. Students are now joining their demonstrations So, students are joining the demonstrations. I just don't think it's our classic Gen Z psy-op but what was interesting in the second part of this report... Well by the way which may be confirmed by the fact that it is not getting any coverage whatsoever Correct! Here is the Middle East Director of Chatham House

11:16 Who they bring in. Exactly, so let's hear what she has to say I don't think that the regime itself is in a moment of imminent danger Really because the Islamic Republic of Iran as we have witnessed over many years of protests Is institutionalized and has a bureaucracy That is willing to remain united and push back against dissent in the country But what the system is looking to avoid is a long-scale, protracted standoff. Iran's leadership knows the quickest way to ease pressure is lifting US sanctions but with President Donald Trump this week threatening to quote knock the hell out of Iran if it rebuilt its missile program

12:06 The diplomatic mood is far from positive. All right, so we did get one little viral moment just a very brief one which they're trying to push an image that quickly went viral in Iran A man sits down in the middle of the street in silent protest facing him lines of Iranian security personnel on motorbikes. So like a Tiananmen Square type deal is what this guy's doing? You know, kneeling in the street... Yeah you might as well do it that way sure And here's the BBC report Protests are continuing for a third day in Iran against rising prices and an increase in the price of foreign currency Students from several universities have joined the demonstrations which was started on Sunday by shopkeepers and market stall holders. Tehran province has been the center of the protests, parts of Tehran markets are also closed David Bamford reports These are the largest demonstrations

12:58 I love these Brits. ...since the woman life freedom protest three years ago sparked by the death of an Iranian woman, Maksa Amini while in police custody today students from the major universities in Tehran including Sharif and Beheshti have joined to the protests a strike continues in Tehran's Grand Bazaar and commercial districts with merchants keeping shops closed There's also fresh unrest in the central city of Isfahan, where students from the University of Technology have taken to the streets. Ostensibly these are protests about food price increases up to 70% year on year... Sounds a bit like an Arab Spring thing Oh yeah bread is expensive! Yeah they got that angle but they also have not mentioned which a lot of these bloggers have talked about that they ran out of water They've been out of water for a couple months

13:50 because of a drought and just mismanagement. Ostensibly these are protests about food price increases of up to 70% year on year, and soaring inflation the security forces have deployed heavily but videos show them pulling back amidst the public anger State media say Iran's president, Mashar al-Pazhishkian urged his own government to listen to what he called the legitimate demands of the protesters and make reforms. Some in the crowd can be heard... Wait wait! Get a kick out of the guy supposedly running the country saying we... The government should listen? He is the government isn't he?! No I guess not

14:30 So it's a fake? Yeah. State media say Iran's president, Mashar Pesashkian urged his own government to listen to what he called the legitimate demands of the protesters and make reforms Some in the crowd can be heard shouting political slogans calling for the overthrow of the Islamic Republic Slogans that can be heard include death to the dictator targeting Supreme Leader Khamenei, the real power in Iran. And this is the final battle Paklavi will return a reference to the family of the ruling shah of Iran ousted in the late 1970s That's the kid in London isn't it? Yeah

15:08 Yeah, there's a number of protests again. We don't know if this is AI or if it's real but where there were these big crowds chanting his name Here's I did get one US report This is CNN Iran back in the news for a couple reasons its government said today It would seek a dialogue with protest leaders after demonstrations in Tehran and other cities of research and inflation Do you think this poses a danger to the government that? I think Tehran, as we all know it's a theocratic autocracy and like a lot of autocracies... As they say in Africa when elephants fight the grass gets trampled. Oh that is a new one! She had never heard that before This is the great philosopher they have on CNN What does Africa have to do with Iran?

16:01 I mean, it's odd. As they say in Africa when the elephants fight the grass gets trampled and Iran the grass is being trampled and who is fighting? It's Tehran versus the rest of folks in the region and US and they've been hit by inflation. uh sean mcfate of economic sanctions all because israel oh sorry all because i what truth just came out hold on a second and they've been hit by inflation they've been hit by all sorts of economic sanctions all because israel oh that's right all because iran

16:38 Doesn't want to give up its nuclear weapons program. Oh, really? That's what it is. Oh brother This is CNN at its best They have no water for three months but because of the nukes sure and this is always a threat to Tehran But Tehran usually just squeezes down like autocracies and pressures them away And that's probably what's gonna happen again But the other problem is that Iran has also declared war basically on Israel and others as we speak. And we'll see where that goes, it's a tough frightening talk from a volatile region. Frightening talk from a volatile region... You can't ignore the coincidence of course

17:25 Netanyahu showing up at Mar-a-Lago and telling Trump, hey you know they're thinking of moving their nukes. The whole thing it just it feels coordinated but they don't have a message yet or they didn't plan the message or maybe maybe it's actually real I think it might be. It feels like it because no one is doing the messaging right, there's so many things... They've been having enough coordinated bull crap riots and color revolutions that somebody may have a clue and figured out you just need one leader and it's possible And we talked months ago about the kid who has been in exile in London he appears to be the one they want now?

18:10 Or were they saying, let's go Brandon? I'm not sure what they were yelling. It could be both! Yeah... it's hard to know. I gotta call Lex, i gotta ask him. Why is it hard to know because nobody's covering it where's the boots on the ground from the news media CNN has some guy giving us aphorisms from Africa you know sitting in the studio why don't he go out there and do something Get put your feet on the ground and go float around and find out what's going on which brings media You're getting paid money to do that you have huge budgets Which brings me to the New Year's Eve New Year's Day message from CBS Evening News Tony Ducoupil

18:56 Is that as well? You recorded it. Yes, of course I did! This is unbelievable Now this has to be Barry Weiss in the background...I presume But basically we've been screwing you over for 50 years with our CBS Evening News Yeah Well a couple of things It might just be Paramount Well, Barry Weiss would be the representative. But Barry Weiss might have gone in there and pushed for something like this and I think this may be a satire. Well, I mean, I thought it was a satire but... No, not like a fake video that's turned into a satire but I'm saying literally by DeCouple or whatever his name is

19:47 actually going over the top so far that it's like laughable. So they're laughing on purpose? They're laughing in the newsroom, haha look at these suckers! Yeah we'll tell them I'm just considering it It's well let's analyze Because out of control is so stupid to do something like this Well, the Curry-Dvorak consulting group would have never advised this. That's for sure! A lot has changed since the first person sat in this chair but for me the biggest difference is people do not trust us like they used to and it's not just us its all of legacy media Yeah that for 18 years dude I get because I've been hearing about it from just about everybody for more than 20 years as I've traveled America on this assignment or that

20:35 My mom's neighbors in West Virginia, my own neighbors. I love where he starts right away. My mom doesn't like it! My mom's neighbor... Mom complained to me okay? For more than 20 years as i've traveled America on this assignment or that. My mom's neighbors in West Virginia, my own neighbors in New York City Thousands and thousands of conversations in between Sometimes people want to talk to me about our coverage of NAFTA Or the Iraq war Huh?! What!? How old are those people Hey, man. You know maybe some people should realize what we're listening to here I don't think we gave it enough background This is Tony deCouple the guy was taking over CBS nightly news and this evening news evening news evening evening Yeah well He's taken over the news slot he's take his bump that you know whoever was there before got bumped Nora was there for a while and

21:29 And this is kind of a pre-Maya culpa, apologizing for all the screw ups they had in the past. I'm the new guy we're going to do it differently and this kind of thing and it's just awkward but in case anybody wonders what were listening too. Other times its all about Hillary Clinton emails or Russiagate Or more recently, COVID lockdowns, Hunter Biden's laptop or the president's fitness for office. I think they should literally do a story on each of these things starting today and give us the truth That would be a good follow-up. Somehow I doubt that's in the works No, I don't think so The point is on too many stories the press has missed the story Yeah they missed the story like it was a scam everything's fake and gay and you guys are leading it Because we've taken into account the perspective of advocates And not the average American Really? This is such an admission We've taken... ...The account of advocates

22:33 Or we put a really poor form. Yeah, basically saying you know we've worked for other people. Or we put too much weight in the analysis of academics or elites and not enough on you! Yes! The dummies... The plebs! I have been you. I have felt this way too. I am YOU! CBS News, I AM YOU I felt like what I was seeing... I wouldn't be surprised to see that as a catchphrase. Well, we'll give it to him CBS News! I and that little i logo? I am you And I know this because at certain points I have been you. I've felt this way too. I felt like what I was seeing and hearing on the news didn't reflect what I was seeing in hearing In my own life and that's the most urgent questions simply weren't being asked

23:31 So here's my promise to you, today and every time you see me in this chair. I will be wearing pants! You come first not advertisers not politicians Not corporate interests And yes that does include the corporate owners of CBS Yeah oh yeah which is now Allison I report for you, which means i tell you what I know when I know it and how I know it. And when I get it wrong... I'll tell ya that too! It also means that we're gonna talk to everybody and hold everyone in public life to the very same standard

24:13 After all, I became a journalist. What standard? That he'll tell you everything he knows! He's holding them to account! This guy by the way was on The Morning Show... He was the morning guy and he was the dumbest of the group. He was always saying stupid stuff asking dumb questions. I don't want just demean that guy but he is a dummy. That's good. The dummy is almost done It also means I'm going to talk to everybody and hold everyone in public life to the very same standard. After all, I became a journalist to talk to people. Oh! I love talking to people about what works in this country... What doesn't? Is that why you become a journalist? To talk to people?! I never heard that being the reason to become a journalist. Start a podcast! Become a podcaster man You can talk to anybody. And not only would your channel change but the good ideas should never change. I think telling the truth is one of them

25:15 I'm Tony DeCopol, the anchor of the CBS Evening News. Hold me to it! You bet! Hold Me To It! CBS hold me to it! Yeah that's good well in this honesty vein of our buddy here... That is so funny yeah thats great at first I'm like this is fake this has to be fake this can't be real And so you need, you've held me to account people. You've helped me to account I have stolen valor on my heart? I feel horrible. No it's the AI that stole the valour and you just stole from AI Here is a... So the clip of the day on the last episode last year, so doesn't really count as last year Of Yanis Varoufakis

26:09 was AI and he discussed it recently on UnHerd. And it was rather an interesting two-clip conversation. I received a message, some WhatsApp message from... ...a very esteemed colleague Yes the Currie Dvorak podcast they said hey is this you? A person whose opinion i value a lot and he was congratulating me over a YouTube video of mine and he had the link in there so this was spot on Janis really very good analysis wasn't the one you showed just now So I clicked on the link to remind myself of what it is that I had said, which my colleague liked. And it was two minutes into the video that I realized it wasn't me! That's... you know, 2 minutes is an eternity." So if the guy himself didn't realize it for TWO MINUTES

27:00 That's concerning. Yeah, you can't take too much blame even though I rebuke and denounce and renounce the clip of the day. Denounce! And renounce! And listen to how he actually figured it out When you have somebody saying things that you never said but which you could've said The reason why I caught on to this was because You see this blue shirt? Well...I was wearing it in that video But that video was set at my office in Athens Here I'm talking to you from my island home and this shirt has never left. By the way, remind me to use that line Today i'm talking to you from my island home. I'm not in my regular home My Island Home It was this juxtaposition of my blue shirt from one house to the other That alerted me to the fact that it wasn't really And then of course I started digging into it and it turns out

27:55 The words that you just heard I have never spoken. But alas, they are words that I could have spoken the analysis is not far off mine and there've been videos that i've watched of myself where I would articulate an argument in ways that I don't disagree with that. Maybe, I would have said it." And this is the most insidious part and I'm sure you can understand it and our audience can understand it. Then suddenly a sentence would be inserted in my soliloquy that I would never have said. And that's where the defamatory parts start. That was when I blew my top

28:33 Instagram and so on. I blew my top! He blew his top. I blew my top, top-top-top-blown The funnier part of the story is when he tried to do something about it Which brings us to the whole monetization system that Big Tech has imposed upon an unsuspecting world because you know as you can imagine the first thing i did when i came across these fake videos was to write to Google and to Meta and to these people It took days before i got a response Interestingly, of course AI generated. Then I insisted on talking to a real person. I don't know whether they succeeded maybe they referred me to more realistic version of AI who wrote the more human-like letter in the end it took eight days nine days after my first form that i filled and so and I submitted illustrating and demonstrating improving that these are deep fake versions

29:30 And they brought one channel down and then within seconds the same material re-emerged in a different channel under a different name, but the same videos. I realized within two weeks that this was a losing game." He's given up! He has just given up on it You can't even talk to a real person at Google about this It is amazing It's an amazing time we live in. I'll tell you that. Yeah, this is a problem! Yeah? I think this is more of a problem than we like to think Oh it's a huge problem But yeah, it's the model obviously... Well... The monetization model... I expect that there will be moments over the next year where we'll be suckered into... Many times

30:24 More than once yeah, I'm playing a clip from someone who is it's a perfect clip. Yeah and It's not done in such a way that you gives itself away as being a fake and It'll be it'll be a good clip But it will be fake won't be the guy. I mean this was what happened didn't edit some unfortunate but Well, it's just gonna happen. The funny thing is is that the clip that we played was him talking about Russia's retaliation against the the freezing the permanent freezing of the Russian assets at euro clear and other banks in the EU and So I went and said well did this actually happen or not? Was this just a report that they used him and it turns out that

31:12 Yes, Russia nationalized a whole bunch of EU companies. But they did it a year ago which we didn't even hear about including Carlsberg, Danone, Fortum, Uniper I mean so and totaling even more than the fake AI clip said this all happened Yeah this seems to me to be the Russians They can do AI as well, I mean they can use the same tools we have and they have smart people. And Putin's people have to be beside themselves with how come this... Okay you guys are gonna do that? We're gonna do this! And nobody reports it

32:02 And so they say, nobody's reporting on what we're up to. We're not doing it right? Okay well then we'll do this and then we'll do that and then we'll do this... What are we going to get? So after a year they said what can we do to get this information out there? Nobody will pick it up! Let's do a fake video with this guy because they love him and just put it out there and just soak the market with it let the viral take over And that's what they did. I'm absolutely convinced this is Russian intelligence. Make sure those dopes at the No Agenda show see it! Send a copy to Curry, that guy... He's a sucker for the Ruskies. Yeah?

32:45 Which kind of brings into question this whole drone attack on Putin's home. Yeah, I have a clip on that but... I have an intro overview clip of that Do you want to do it? Yeah, yeah. I'll play that and then you can do whatever you want. From a snowy Moscow this morning the Kremlin keeping up its latest flurry of accusations against Ukraine. But Kiev was trying to undermine progress towards a peace deal by launching a drone attack on one of Vladimir Putin's residences This is Channel 4 again Ukraine has ridiculed the claims but Russia nonetheless promising to toughen its stance

33:20 That military today releasing images of what it said were its Oreshnik hypersonic nuclear capable missiles being deployed in Belarus. Russia claims Ukraine launched 91 drones in a mass attack on the Putin residence, they would have had to fly more than 400 miles through heavily defended airspace en route to the target, a sprawling complex on the northeastern shore of Lake Valdai itself guarded by 12 nearby air defense batteries there are no local reports of any explosions I learned about it from President Putin today. I was very angry about it. President Trump, meeting the Israeli prime minister yesterday challenged on whether U.S. intelligence had any evidence that it happened You're saying maybe the attack didn't take place? It's possible to guess but president Putin told me this morning he did As for the timing of this, politically wouldn't be a very judicious moment to strike in this way No, for all sorts of reasons Firstly there is... This is some dude from University College London

34:16 formal etiquette, shall we say that you don't go after the other side's leaders or else you face that same threat yourself. Secondly it would risk doing away with all of the goodwill generated by Zelensky his trip to Florida and thirdly the problem is Zelensky did in his Christmas address pretty openly wish for Putin's death. So in that context, again this would look a little bit too on the nose. So let's look at the three options. Well listen to it by the way that was the guy with British accent doing his reporting yes Can I can I say what I was going to say? So here are the options. It's the pauses that was my pregnant pause. Which by the way does cut out some Bluetooth headsets, I'm sorry when we have a pause there still some Bluetooth headsets out there that see zero bytes and think oh! The podcast over and it disconnects What?! Yeah yeah this is a recurring problem

35:14 Because that's idiotic well because of the noise gate there is zero. I mean, it's not like a little bit It's just there's zero noise and and the Bluetooth things oh it's quiet so I'll just disconnect Oh heaven forbid that we actually are they have a have a have a production that produces Quiet that is quite a time quiet time as opposed to a buzzing sound or whatever the rest of Well, the solution of course is just to listen to us at 10x and you'll be fine. So, the options are 1. Ukraine did this 2. It was a false flag by Russia or 3. Which I think is more likely is that something maybe not 91 drones but something was lit up by the North Sea Nexus to... Where my clips go? To interrupt the negotiations between... Which is where my clips go Well Ed, I heard you so I'm ready for your clips

36:14 Well, first it says just as the intro clip to counter your intro clip I have one from NTD that we can play before. I play the clips of the Nexus Clips. Okay two days after an alleged attack on Russian President Vladimir Putin Moscow is now releasing video footage for the first time According to the Kremlin, Ukraine launched over 90 drones at Putin's residence on Monday overnight. After international calls for evidence to back up the claim Russia released this video on Wednesday showing one drone in a dark forest. Neither the location nor date of the video could be independently verified. Zelensky denies claims of an attack saying Russia is lying to undermine the peace process which had been developing fast before the alleged attack

36:57 Also on Wednesday, President Trump shared a New York Post article which states that the drone strike likely never happened. A day earlier the US ambassador to NATO also cast doubt on the accusation that Ukraine attacked Putin's residence He said it's unclear whether the attack actually happened. The ambassador added that he wants to see US intelligence on the incident. Meanwhile, the U.S continues working on a possible peace deal speaking with Ukrainian and European officials special envoy Steve Whitkoff says they quote focused on how to move their discussions forward in a practical way on behalf of President Trump's peace process Okay well I think option C is still the most viable

37:41 that the North Sea Nexus was fiddling about to disrupt these peace talks because they are warmongers and they want war. They just want, they are! They just want war. They want their children to die? Yes they do like oh you're gonna go into the army now son yeah. Their children to die... Hey child sacrifice is powerful aphrodisiac so Well, here is the... this is a woman that showed up on... out of this Prometheus project. Hold on! You know that I introduced them to the podcast three months ago? Yeah. Okay. Well here she is giving her spiel and which makes by the way what you just said make it sound as though you stole the Nexus idea from them No, let me just remind you

38:35 I played the clips from Ton Luongo, from Gold Goats and Guns. I played three clips from The LaRouche Ladies which is their former... Oh, The LaRouche Ladies there we go And i said the only thing they're doing wrong is they're calling it the Dutch Anglo system and that's when on that very podcast I said I'm calling it the North Sea Nexus So I give them credit. She's this woman who is another one who I think is a little Rushi big because Barbara kinder Yeah. Or Susan Kokinda, I'm sorry the other one's Barbara. I don't know one of the Kokindas... They're both LaRouche ladies! Okay they were LaRouche... Maybe you should explain who LaRouche was? Lyndon LaRouche! You said it like Mark Levin! Slowly I turn! Mark Levin! Lyndon LaRouche! Lyndon LaRouche was this guy with his unbelievably affectatious delivery of-I wish i could do his voice

39:34 But he was a... He is in, he's in the conspiracy category all his own. Oh this is before I was in the game! He's very singular and people should look him up and try to follow it because it's like a very compelling guy It's like David Icke without the reptilian stuff And but it's close to it, but is this complex system how the world works that makes some sort of sense once they hypnotize you into believing it. This woman has those elements but at the same time this is closer to what your thesis is based on except she kind of takes the nexus and

40:26 instead of making it a nexus, is mostly just the British monarch. But it falls in line with what we're thinking as opposed to what the mainstream podcasting verse is thinking which is Israel, Israel, Israel... Just asking questions! So it's, so this is. So it has a fun and I have a bunch of these, one of them was long but the rest were pretty short of her discussing this and it brings that shows somebody sent his clip earlier this morning even though I picked it up yesterday but they send in to say this is proof! That Adam was right about the next, no proof there's no proof in here. Yes it is, its proof I was right. There's no proof, this all thesis

41:17 And it's stretched a bit because there are some moments where she is adding to it. But the fact that she has clips from the House of Lords and they're all concerned about... Oh, I've seen this one! Yeah this is good. This is good. And the House of Lords is all bent out. I'm sorry, play the clip so I'll stop talking. Yes this is indeed Susan Kokinda. The national security strategy is a mortal threat to the British Empire and we're going to activate all our networks in United States to try and stop it they're saying this because they are terrified but if you listen to the noise in Washington and social media you'd think Trump was the one losing control

41:57 Because in the last few days after the president met with Zelensky and Netanyahu, the political world has exploded. Now if you listen to Mike Pompeo and the neocons Trump sold out to Putin If you listened to the anti-war crowd he sold out to Zelensky And what about Israel? If you follow the MAGA wars or Marjorie Taylor Greene You're being told he surrendered to Israel Or can we just do America They're all wrong. What you just witnessed wasn't a sellout, it was a takeover It was the first live fire test of the very strategy the British are trying to kill Trump hasn't surrendered He signed the Do Not Resuscitate order for the British post-war world

42:39 And that's why they're not celebrating in London or Brussels. I like the writing, the writing is good you know? The do not resuscitate this is... That's mature writing! They realize the special relationship their ability to manipulate American power for their wars is over as long as Donald Trump is calling the shots. I became politically active way back in 1968. Whoa! Campaigning for Robert F Kennedy How old is she? She's pretty much, she looks like my age. Yeah. She's a septuagenarian for sure. She has a... She's gotta be And I was the same as her and I can parallel it because i was a kennedy guy You were a democrat you were liberal. I was a democrat and all for Robert F Kennedy

43:29 Then I was for George McGovern and that who is the worst candidate they've ever Featured he went to Berkeley you to give a lecture. I went to and talked to him I got them medium, and did you get his autograph nicest guy in the world? Mm-hmm what did you get his autograph? You know I'm looking back on my Life oh wow I'm looking back at my life dire thinking of the autographed autographs I missed I could have retired. I could have retired on Stan Lee alone, Stan Lee shows up at Tech TV and he, I'm chatting with him... It's too much Stan Lee! No one knows who Stan Lee is come on! Stan Lee is the Marvel Comics guy everybody... You sound like boomers Everybody knows who Stan Lee is and so if I had brought 10 comic books

44:21 and had him sign 10 comic books, Stanley, Stanley. They were auctioning those for $10,000 a pop! Wow you'd retire for a whole year? Awesome Well I could retire for a few months but i'm just saying that's just one of many guys I dropped the ball on getting an autograph from And-and you are the proto archivist and yet you dropped the ball on the autographs that's interesting It's pathetic. I became politically active way back in 1968, campaigning for Robert F Kennedy Sr in California when he was assassinated For decades my colleagues at Promethean Action and I have been in the real fight

45:00 So take it from a political veteran, if enough of you understand what Trump is doing. We're going to celebrate the 250th anniversary of our independence in 2026 by finishing the job. Ever since I introduced it to the show and we started with the North Sea Nexus, at least twice sometimes five times a day someone will send me a link. They do three videos a week. Someone will send me a link and say here's proof you were right this is it! Proof So what I'm happy about is that they're getting traction because they are on this day and night They do a live stream for like five hours on Thursdays Oh good Yeah so I'm happy that they're getting traction with us

45:46 We got other things to do. Like Iran, whatever like it's... There are other things besides this but this is important. Not much! It's all connected. Might be connected but it just like there's a lot of work to do besides just our heartburn and my weakness so... Yeah we've got TikTok videos to play come on I know you do And they're gems But anyway let's continue with the North Sea Nexus The 2025 National Security Strategy And this week Trump used it to clear the board. So let's start with Russia and Ukraine The British in the EU sent Zelensky to Mar-a-Lago with a mission Did you basically cut up the whole 15 minute report? No, in fact they didn't even start at the beginning Oh okay Demand open ended Because the problem is she... her problem is couple of things

46:34 15 minute, I got a lot of minutes but not the whole thing. The problem is she repeats herself two or three times and then she goes into a sales pitch for the Promethean whatever the hell it's called. And their book How The British Kill Our Presidents Yeah and she goes on and on so I cut all that stuff out Oh okay alright So it's a stripped down version of the LaRouche ladies Nice Exactly Demand open-ended security guarantees NATO membership and keep the war machine running. They're operating off of Winston Churchill's post-war playbook... By the way, that is something you never want to see. What? Strip down LaRouche ladies! They are operating off of Winston Churchill's... I bet she was really cute in her 20s and 30s. Maybe. I'm going look her up. ...post-war playbook that says Russia is our permanent enemy

47:26 But Trump is operating off his new national security strategy. And here's what it says, It is a core interest of the United States to negotiate an expeditious cessation of hostilities in Ukraine... ...to prevent unintended escalation or expansion of the war and re-establish strategic stability with Russia… …and then a little later end the perception and prevent the reality of NATO as a perpetually expanding alliance." That is what is driving Trump's negotiating position with Zelensky. So how did the empire respond to Trump's refusal to bend? Immediately after the meeting, drones attacked President Putin's residence in Valdez. The Russians were furious but they called it a slap in the face to Trump Now ask yourself was this really just Zelensky going rogue or was the British hand at work We're not alone and pointing out that British intelligence plays a bigger role in guiding these drone systems than Ukrainians do

48:26 As the conservative Treehouse blog put it in their coverage of the attack, I suspect the British did it. So this wasn't a military strike, It was a sabotage operation designed to blow up the Trump-Putin peace channel But Trump and Putin refused to take the bait They aren't pawns anymore Here's Trump's response President Putin told me about it Early in the morning he said that he was attacked That is no good Don't forget you know the tomahawks? I stopped the tomahawk because I didn't want that Because we're talking about, you know it's a delicate period of time. This is not the right time. It's one thing to be offensive because they are offensive. It's another thing to attack his house. It's not the right time to do any that." Now is not the time to attack his house! That's later, not right now. So who was he talking to? The president is always talking to somebody

49:20 So was he in this case... That was just one of those mini press conferences. I know, but was he hypothetically speaking to Ukraine? Or is there an undertone there? You know what i mean? I think he was hypothetically speaking to the Nexus! That's what I would presume yes He's saying look we figured out what you're up to no this is not the time No stop it Yeah, this is an issue. Okay onward and Putin spokesman Ushakov reported that in that conversation with Trump Vladimir Putin emphasized the Russian side intends to continue close and productive work with its US partners in searching for ways to achieve peace now watch how this same grand strategy explains the panic over the Netanyahu meeting

50:12 For decades, the British have used the Mideast as the cockpit of war. They've created Zionism and Islamic fundamentalism to play the superpowers and victim nations against each other." Yep! The new national security strategy flips that word over. It accurately states that for a half century American foreign policy prioritized the Mideast above all other regions because it was a major energy supplier and it described it as a prime theater of superpower competition. But the NSS goes on to say those dynamics no longer hold because superpower competition has given way to great power jockeying in which the United States retains the most enviable position, reinforced by President Trump's successful revitalization of our alliances in the Gulf with other Arab partners and with Israel. Catch that?

51:08 Revitalization of our alliances in the Gulf with other Arab partners and with Israel. Not Israel first, despite what Tucker Carlson thinks." Trump is saying we're not playing your games any longer and he's deliberately and quietly removing countries from the grip of the geopoliticians and treating them as independent nations with common interests with the United States not his pawns or gas stations or triggers for religious prophecy Hmm. I mean, I can't argue that that is what i see happening along with the core five The other core five yes That would be the end point Yes So okay we'll go...I think we're on clip four So the British Empire isn't going to go down without a fight

51:58 On December 11th, not too long after Trump released his national security strategy the British House of Lords was all ready. They held a pearl-clutching session about the NSS and what they had to do about it I thought by the way just in advance...I thought this is kind of weak after the setup? I'm like okay Maybe yeah, no this is where she has. This is weak There's two clips here and they're both of them you have to read a lot into it But then again if you look at it from the perspective of British of the British You know they understate so much that is I mean as a policy yes as a way of communicating Fairpoint that is quite likely They were saying a lot more than we can understand

52:42 First, Lord Beamish happily reported that the US Congress doesn't agree with Trump and his national security strategy. Last week the US Congress on a bipartisan basis passed The National Defense Authorization Act which was signed by the President on Thursday night That act gives commitment to U.S troops in Europe Also highlights that it sees Russia as threat not just to Europe but also to the United States and also gives a commitment to future US commitment to providing the senior military figure for secure, the leader of the commander of NATO. Does my honourable friend, my dear noble friend agree that we should be looking at actions rather than some of the wild statements come from The White House? Then Lord Lancaster reported that he had just been in the U.S.,

53:37 where he discussed the problem of the national security strategy with members of the US Congress. I was in Washington DC last week with other members of the NATO Parliamentary Assembly and when the national security strategy was discussed with our fellow elected members in the U.S., their message was clear that NSS's come and go, sometimes they're implemented and sometimes they don't. But we should judge by what Congress passes in the National Defense Appropriation Act last week delivered an extra eight billion pounds to European defense and put a floor of some 76 thousand troops US troops in Europe Did you hear that? National security strategies come and go

54:17 Does that remind you of what we reported last week? How outlets of empire like Chatham House and the Council on Foreign Relations want to outlast the president. Yeah, I've been noticing this too... This idea of outlasting the president Yes! Even some Republicans are kind of letting that shine through. Schumer brings it up too, Schumer was out on it. Schumer's a streetch for these guys. Yeah three more years we're good. Yeah we can put three more years up But also shows you that who is really running shows is the military industrial complex The whole NDAA was at least $150 billion dollars more than Trump even wanted with his big beautiful battleships

55:04 Where'd that come from? From Congress. Yeah, the battleship. Which club were we on? I think five. Five yes. Good we're getting there alright How they're maintaining their Trojan horses in the Congress and the rest of the political landscape The RINOs that never Trumpers like Mike Pence and the Koch interests So while too many in the MAGA base are caught up She uh...in a previous episode She mentioned that Chatham House has put all of their eggs in the Mike Pence basket. And that they're pushing, that Chatham House or the British intelligence community are pushing for Pence to run in 2028. Yeah I'm on their mailing list. I get a lot of good stuff from them In the fabricated faction fights and secondary issues who frankly are acting like five-year olds demanding headline grabbing indictments right now Donald Trump is dismantling a strategic architecture that has been in place since 1945

56:09 An architecture that's used the United States as the dumb giant in the British Empire's globalist schemes. And the British know it, but even bigger than Trump strategic revolution is the economic revolution because that's what this is really all about Go back to the end of World War II and the summit in Casablanca where Franklin Roosevelt said to Winston Churchill, Winston we didn't fight that war to reestablish British 18th century methods And Churchill countered and said, what do you mean by that? And FDR said a system that takes more out of the country than it puts back in. Well Roosevelt died before the war ended and the result was the ultimate triumph of British 18th century methods or a system which takes more out then it puts in Look at what has happened to the United States

57:01 We used to have a middle and working class based on a robust manufacturing sector and a tradition of family farms. And here's what's happened since the end of World War II, in 1950 31% of the US population was engaged in manufacturing today it's only 8%. If you add other goods producing sectors like agriculture and mining and transportation We used to have 55% engaged in productive activity. Today, it is less than 20%. Our good paying jobs our industry our infrastructure our family farms they disappeared along with the middle class. Okay Captain Obvious got it

57:45 I didn't realize, the one thing that I learned in all these clips is this meeting in Casablanca where Roosevelt called out Churchill and then died. So they couldn't do anything but okay so this wraps it up a little bit. Our economic sovereignty was stripped by British 18th century methods of financialization and free trade In exchange, we imported everything. Food, cheap crap and our trade deficit exploded." In other words more was taken out than was put back in Donald Trump is reversing that That's why tariffs are such a powerful weapon and are so hated by the global elites And they're working

58:30 We're rebuilding our manufacturing base and our economic independence. In November alone, ground was broken on 136 new factories 78 processing plants This is what you're supposed to say What about the Ohio plant? What about the Ohio Foxconn plant? That's the one. No, it's not in Ohio. The Foxconn plant was in Minnesota or Wisconsin. I don't remember where it was. Yeah. So do you think that this is true over a hundred factories? I don't know. I would like to see some evidence of it. Brown was broken on 136 new factories 78 processing plants and 199 new warehouses

59:15 But even more important than physical growth is the reawakening of a productive spirit within the population and especially among young people. Look at this headline, look at the response of young people in blue Massachusetts to the opportunity of getting vocational training and having a productive job rather than a dead-end liberal arts degree with tons of debt. And even more important than that is the promise of the future of going beyond where we were at the end of World War II, before we surrendered to British 18th century methods. You know this... so a couple things and I don't think we ever should play a full Promethean action report again because that was pretty long. We don't have too. You heard that summary one that was quite good? Yeah it was pretty good just for the cause

1:00:06 We're trying to figure out some things like, you know who does Nick Fuentes work for if he works for anybody. He is without a doubt the voice of a generation of the Zumwurfaffen but I was just thinking because someone sent me a link and said you need to watch the whole Nick Fuentes! You can't be our uncle if you don't know what's going on So I watched the whole, it was actually five hours of which two hours were live. You have to be careful which one you pick Well it doesn't matter It was five hours of pre-roll and pre show Oh no, no, there's always... It was good! If you get away from the pre roll? I loved watching the pre roll stuff That is 2 hours of pre roll I was sick so but just sat on the couch and watched the pre roll You were sick that's not gonna make ya healthy And then I watched his full show

1:01:01 And you know, he's hitting all the hot buttons like there are no jobs. We can't find anyone to have sex with. You know everything is falling apart and everything is fake and gay. When I say fake and gay that's G-H-E-Y. Just all of this stuff. talk show format and he has so much of, I really feel some limbo in there. He's got all these... You're right he is very very good. He could also be a preacher almost but there are never any solutions it's all just everything is no good and then its you know and he kind of slips in as you know it's the black people, it's the Jews, it's the women that's kinda how

1:01:46 how it flows. But it was interesting, I thought you know let me just make a list between boomers and zoomers for a moment now...I'm a boomer adjacent but in this case I'll just be Boomer slash Gen X so yeah well we've got climate change and uh and this is also horrible when I was a kid we had the ozone layer and acid rain were gonna burn up The acid rain was my favorite. The drug crisis? The ozone, that's a good one yeah. Yeah the drug crisis you know you die from a pill on snapchat bro we had crack for the first time you have no idea what the streets look like with crack it was bad

1:02:36 algorithms and all this horrible internet, you know the media panic. We had satanic panic! We were all gonna die the backmasking, the Satanists were everywhere, the Luciferian society... we had Tipper Gore telling us we couldn't listen to music Yeah, you know. So the Zoomers had ratings on their music albums? Yeah yeah. The zoomers we don't there's no company we could be loyal to We have to have side hustles Dude we had Greed is Good and Yuppies And you had to work 80 hours and do coke just to keep up with it

1:03:13 I love the yuppies. The yuppies, yes! Oh there's war everywhere in 1980 we all had to actually register for the draft because we had conflicts in Lebanon, Granada Central America you know proxy wars so does it sound familiar? Campus protests. Oh yes it's pro- That's new! No that's novel campus protests are brand new we've never had them before We had South Africa We had the divest from South Africa. I'm not going to play Sun City! We had entire bands putting together benefit records. Chad GPT is gonna take your job? The actual jobs started to go away in America with robots, with robotics for car companies we went through all this

1:04:11 You know, oh well you know we're not gonna have Social Security. Social Security? We got taken off pensions and here's your 401k good luck it's your problem now and consumer debt we literally were given credit cards yeah fun it's gonna be great! We got screwed with all that And everyone's all like, you know true crime if kids are getting killed. You know we got to look at analyze this on the podcast We had we had the same thing only we had milk cartons and we looked at all the milk cartons with the kids on the milk cartons It's it's always the same it just has a different name The only thing we didn't have was parents who would let us live rent-free at home until we were 30 That's what we didn't have

1:05:07 So, spare me. And John you're half a generation older than me I think you can come up with examples exactly the same so I didn't even bring it back to HUAC and the riots back in the day. HUAC? Yeah HUAC. The House Un-American Activities Committee's riots in the 50s and Yeah, yeah the thing is of course is that it just nothing's changed that much. No! It's a cycle and its just going round and round around only this time to little different we have podcasters and they come up with all kinds of connections once

1:05:55 October 7th happened, and then we got the Punk Rock Podcasters. And he was already doing it you know in a way Kanye, people just come by say hey man is The Juice And it's so interesting to deconstruct how that all fits together because Epstein is a big part of it. Because, of course the Jews Israel has Mossad and Epstein and his pedophilia and therefore immediately all of our Congresses being blackmailed Blackmail! Blackmailed! So they have to vote whatever AIPAC tells them too

1:06:34 And of course there was no blackmailing going on during the Edgar Hoover era of the FBI. Nothing was going on. When the FBI was just a blackmailing operation and you know, so then there's this Christian Zionism angle So of course you get Tucker hounding Ted Cruz who is an idiot He said well my Bible tells me I need to bless Israel You know? convolutes that to, oh you mean the government of Israel? So all of it's and it's and I think there's a movement afoot. You can kind of see with all these podcasters young podcasters moving towards Catholicism

1:07:18 And then there's all kinds of theories, but basically in replacement theology the Jews don't matter anymore. So anyone who is still for quote-unquote Israel and that's a big question is what is that? Obviously it's in the bag for Israel and that's where all this kind of comes from and then you can just easily say well yeah you're a shill for Israel! You're taking shekels But the thing that really got me, and I picked up this clip from Candace Owens and she was on The Theo Vaughn Show. And this is a perfect Mangelman type experiment, Mangelman amnesia. You know so when someone says something and you know it's demonstrably wrong how can you believe anything they say? And I understand...and the only one who is pretty good at it is Nick Fuentes

1:08:10 But everybody else, you know they just throw stuff out there and when you're putting together a theory and you pull in historical events. And oh this happened that happened and therefore the Jews! She went really awry I don't even know how old this interview is doesn't seem like it's too old but here she's talking about AIPAC And I know, I sound like a broken record on this one because I remain that it's being funded by the military industrial complex through the American Israeli Education Foundation. That's where you see Raytheon and Boeing and all that big money going in but she pulled out a couple of really interesting lies or untruths or just mistakes

1:09:01 that she absolutely presents as fact and has it fact-checked in real time with Wikipedia. Israel is actually the exception, they are the only country that's allowed to lobby Americans like everyone else has to register as a foreign agent under FARA. Like what do you mean? Like with AIPAC or whatever? Yeah so AIPAC... The backstory by the way before JFK got shot he was fighting AIPAC they were previously called I'm blanking on this it was you can look it up And he was literally saying you have to register under the Foreign Act. Is that true? Let's look at it. 1000% sure, and you should look it up. We should- 1000%. So she says foreign act but what she is talking about is the Foreign Agent Registration Act

1:09:41 which Manafort, Trump's guy went to jail for because he wasn't registered as a foreign lobby. So if you are being paid by a foreign government it is not a big deal you just register and then you can give money to campaigns etc but then it has to be clear that its coming from Israel so she's 1000% sure this is the only group of its kind that doesn't have to register for some mysterious reason. Fact check that live, he was fighting with what is today known as APAC, ah, as it was renamed AZCPA I don't know if that stood for in 1959 AZCPA was renamed the a was renamed APAC and American Israel Public Affairs Committee reflecting a broader membership in mission yeah so JFK told them that they had to register under FARA

1:10:32 And so American Zionist Council, that's exactly what it was called. In 1962 President... Look at the last paragraph in 1962. President John F Kennedy and his brother Bobby as a US Attorney General forced the AZC to register as a foreign agent in doing so they were barred from making monetary contributions to US officials. Who was barred? AZC? Yeah, so APAC for lack of a better term they were called AZC back then but continued to send out newsletters and hold events with with the non-profit tax exemption and then what happened was he was shot Okay So let's just understand what Candace is saying She's saying because John F Kennedy wanted the American Zionist Council

1:11:17 Registered under Farah, they killed him. So they are the only- The reason why I'm bringing this up is not to further conspiracy theories They're the only country that's allowed to lobby Americans that do not- Are not registered under the FAR Act But for whatever reason Israel is an exception to this and the reason is because JFK got shot Otherwise they would have been under this so that IS the reason but they're allowed to do this John does that sound true to you? Well, I'm not sure why you're playing this. Didn't you do this exact same presentation on your podcast with Jimmy? I'm playing a piece of it! I'm not doing the full thing...I just want to do the Candace Owens bit because this isn't- I mean don't you ever talk about stuff you talked about on Horowitz? No

1:11:59 Yes you do, I ask you all the time. No only because you asked me...I refuse to bring it into the show voluntarily but this is.. But not condemning you for that but i don't understand we know Candace's nuts and I'm not sure what what the point of this is? I mean I understand what your saying and it is idiotic I didn't get it much. I didn't get much out of it when you did with Jimmy, but I'm not sure what your point is my point Candace's nuts and she's crazy and But think we've gotten that part um If you say this is an interesting question if you don't see the continuous It's the Jews thing continuous that all of this is the Jews you didn't hear what coquinda just said

1:12:49 She just said in MAGA it's Israel, it's the Jews. Yeah but I think that she made that point and we've made the point before so I'm not sure why we're making it again. Fine fine you continue whatever you want to do people can go listen to my podcast with Jimmy go ahead It was more complete I was only making one point about AIPAC. That's all i wanted to do, it's fine Yeah but you've made that point before you said so at the beginning No! You said right in the beginning... I never made this point and beaten it to death I've never made this point Which is that what? That they are not the only country that has this kind of lobbying organization That was the only point I wanted to make And I was almost there But its okay Well you don't have get puffy about it It just that I heard this already

1:13:40 You've not heard this on this show. You have not heard this on this show! Well, I didn't know you're gonna start recycling stuff that you do on Pastor Jimmy's Show Okay fine John whatever...I'm fine People can go listen to that. I was just trying to bring in something that i thought was relevant but I'm sorry you're so bored after I listened to you cut up a whole 16 minute piece into six clips then anyone could just go watch Well, then what's the difference in that and what you're doing here? Nothing. But I didn't say anything about you Yeah You did! I just let it roll No at the very end you made the point...you said specifically this is to be honest about it You said we're not playing any more clips from these people as though they clip that we play were bad It's obvious that you are working for Israel and you don't want me to expose What's going on

1:14:39 I'm not working for Israel. There's no chance of that, you're my handler! You are my handler! Everyone knows it now by the way... Somebody needs to be doing it. I'm surprised you didn't bring in the clip where they talked about my Uncle Don What? Yeah Oh you missed that one Who is this? Kokinda! I don't really know, I didn't hear that. It wasn't in that one episode Oh, I don't listen to her. No? Okay... Anyway move on- What did they say about your Uncle Don? Move on to a different topic. Now wait a minute now i need to know! No, I didn't bring the clip because I didn't want to bore you about my uncle Don You can just tell me what it was It's too complicated. You have to listen to it If you can summarize? Um..it goes back to Epstein

1:15:42 And Epstein, so the original money laundering for guns was run out of then Vice President George Herbert Walker Bush's office which was overseen by Uncle Don. That's what we know as Iran-Contra Now he was never... He was accused of doing things but they were never able to prove it and there were Senate hearings etc But what happened is there was a continuation of that exact same network, which was then picked up by Epstein's group. And in both cases there was all kinds of sexual blackmail going on. What do you think? Well if you look at The Washington... I think it's The Washington Post or The Washington Times There's a front page article

1:16:46 about the callboys being given tours in the middle of the night at The White House. And it says right there, Uncle Don—it doesn't say Uncle Don—it says Don Gregg was the one that organized it! I think the continuation of that was Barney Frank with his callboy service being run out of his house But on some that's a huh and then what end is the link to Epstein? Yes Well, not not Barney Frank per se but that there has been this continuous blackmailing operation But it's CIA itself. It's not Mossad its CIA They do it they spied on the Senate and they got away with it. Yes They did in fact Einstein pulled him out on it nothing came of it

1:17:40 So, there you go. Well that's... okay now see that's interesting I don't care what you think is interesting You're rude! I am not rude! You say well your recycling stuff Well yeah your recycling stuff I'm not It's like used to honk a horn when i accidentally played a clip twice That's different When you don't think that's rude? No that justified Okay, I get it. All right what do you want to do? I don't know! You're...you completely took the wind out of my sails so... We had a discussion in the last show about Alberta. Alberta is doing the vote it's something we need to talk about according to this guy who's one of the politicians up there and I have Alberta 1 which should listen to this and then we can go on

1:18:37 One of the most significant factors that makes the prospect of Alberta actually becoming independent after the referendum on independence that Alberta will be holding in October 2026 is our proximity and relationship to the United States of America, the largest economy in the world. There's a number of ways in which a country comes into existence. Countries have come into existence ebbed and flowed throughout the history of man, this is not a novel concept countries don't necessarily and their boundaries remain static

1:19:13 In all of our lifetimes, we've witnessed countries form and countries disappear. So one of the ways in which Alberta can become an independent country according to the Supreme Court of Canada in the 1998 reference case because remember, the Supreme Court of Canada laid out a constitutional pathway for a province like Alberta to hold a province wide referendum on a clear question. And if a clear majority say yes, we want to become an independent country and a new nation state then That sets a legal process in motion. One way to finalize that, that process and complete the process of becoming to nationhood is to have negotiations between Alberta, the other provinces First Nations and the federal government on the details of the divorce so to speak

1:20:01 There's no certainty that those negotiations will be successful. The Supreme Court of Canada recognized this in paragraph 155 of their decision and 154, they talk about the concept of unilateral recognition by other nation states. And Canada has set a very important precedent supportive of Alberta going that route of being recognized by other countries as an independent country through Mark Carney's unilateral announcement last September, in September of 2025 where he had the government of Canada

1:20:40 unilaterally recognize the state of Palestine despite not having borders. Well, that's an interesting parallel the state of Palestine and the free State of Alberta This is not getting any coverage at all and I didn't think much about it. Some one of our producers, because we mentioned it and I think... No this how the producer went, why aren't they talking about this? And then I realized there's no coverage of it! Yes that's exactly right We mentioned in a mocking tone on the last show as though yeah whatever

1:21:22 Just Canadians complaining. This is common, this is what Canadians do they complain they bitch they moan but then when I listen to this guy's presentation I didn't realize it was on the ballot in this way and it has precedent and if could happen... If this happens The next thing to go is gonna be the Montreal Quebecers. They're gonna go because they've been wanting to go for years. Is this not a direct attack on the North Sea nexus as well? And could we not be helping them with this? Well, clip two maybe gives us a little insight into that. So one of the things that could well happen after the referendum

1:22:03 is the United States will recognize Alberta as an independent country. There have been ongoing meetings between the Alberta Prosperity Project representatives and the State Department in the US, and as recently as a few weeks ago where they continue to dialogue on the situation in Alberta And it's clear that the U.S government is prepared to recognize Alberta independence and if it occurs in a democratic referendum vote, and so this is really significant because its Alberta largest trading partner

1:22:43 There are closest geographic trading partner. Carney government cleared the way for this and legitimized it through the Carney government's actions of recognizing Palestine, but what I expect is going to happen is I think we're gonna win this vote in October and I think we're gonna win at handily We will be freed from the constraints you know what would so remarkable is we have the third largest reserve of oil in the world. We have all these other resources and we have a federal government that has deliberately passed laws and policies to keep our oil and gas in the ground, holding back prosperity depriving our children and grandchildren of a prosperous and happy future increasing the cost of living it's just spectacular on December 5th

1:23:31 the US government released its national security strategy. And if you go through and read that 39 page document, you will see how uncomfortable the U S administration is about these really weird steps that troubling actions of the carny liberals in seeking to align themselves and Canada with China rather than embrace and try and develop and enhance our relationship with the largest economy, our largest customer and the most powerful military country in the world. How our prime minister has come out and said on a number of occasions

1:24:10 that our relationship with the United States has come to an end? That is just spectacularly reckless. So there's of course a lot of skepticism about this actually happening, but it's not like this hasn't happened in the past things like this happen people are so set in their belief of how the world fits together that they can even imagine that this type of change would take place I think its absolutely possible I think it's absolutely possible too, but i can also see the other side of it where he said that this is not gonna happen. This what...I was mocking it

1:24:51 Because it's silly, I mean you know things are the way they are and who you know they can't... The Quebecers can't even get out of the country let alone these guys but these guys have money. This is that Quebec would go broke they think if they had split off but if these guys split off Quebeckers will split off and then and then the next to go would be BC there's no reason for British Columbia to be part of Canada We could have states 51 52 & 53 maybe even 54 I think 51 and 52 for sure. What has to happen on our end? What has to happen in the US, what is the process for that?

1:25:30 If Alberta says, yeah you know we want to join you guys. What is the process? Do we have... do we have to go through some kind of vote? I don't know idea! I think we do we have to have a test to make sure they can say about it? Our constitutional lawyers are the only guy that can answer that question They have to be able to say about if you say about then its not going to happen You're out! You got to change Your oot! Your oot if you say about Well, we don't want... See I have mixed feelings about 51 and 52 because again Canadians you know the difference between Canada United States when it came to separating from the British Empire. We had a

1:26:14 came to blows. We brought guns to the party." The Canadians, they get away from the Brits even though they're still part of the Commonwealth... They just complained a lot until they got sick of it! People got sick and listening them bitching moan. The Canadians complain, complain, complain and they do such a good job of it. It's hard for Americans to put up with it but I don't know, the Canadians who become Americans seem to adapt to less complaining. Maybe they complain for a good reason and something that could go away? I'm not sure but I have mixed feelings about 51 and 52. Can we just do one of those horizontal fracking jobs under the border? I think it's going be too low or too far but we would definitely... The pipelines would you be going up

1:27:03 The Albertans, if they just stayed as an independent country would be one of the richest in the world. They'd be at least as rich as Kuwait and Dubai... That would be like Saudi Arabia or Qatar! The new Qatar! It'd be like Qatar and it would be loaded Yeah. And it also drain their coffers. It would break Canada. They could all wear dresses and headgear and call themselves sheikhs. They could. Hello I'm the Sheikh of Alberta Now I was talking to the oil baron He says if Trump doesn't do something soon with oil, the prices are going to skyrocket. What's he supposed to do?

1:27:45 And what does he mean in shortly? 18 months. The reason why... So that would go right past this election, so if Alberta went independent and they just latched on to us we'd suck all that away yeah we did that would take care of the problem. So the problem he has he says for the first time in history shale drilling has gone negative He says it's just not producing what it used to produce. There are wells on top of wells on top of wells and we're not getting any more. The shale...

1:28:23 Doesn't that have to do with the price? It's not profitable unless the oil price is 70 or so, and right now it's in the high 50s. He says they're not... well he says under 50 not profitable Yeah it's always been that way though Yes but they're actually not... you know the president keeps saying we got all this oil We don't That's the problem. The oil isn't there anymore this is what he's been I've mentioned this on the show several times He keeps saying it It's diminishing and if Trump doesn't, if Trump keeps stopping the Venezuela oil then the price will skyrocket

1:29:01 I should see where he said this. But is he stopping the oil? He's grabbing the oil, isn't he? Isn't stealing the oil? Yeah but it's... Oil is a global thing Once you grab the ship then you got one shipload of oil but then that oil there's no more oil on that ship Let me see and bring it up for ya You told me this Boy Here we go US blockade in Venezuela forcing South American countries to start shutting wells So Venezuela is now just shutting. The Orinoco belt is reducing production by 25 percent, 500 million barrels per day. Here's what he said... He gave this

1:29:53 Depletion in the Permian is happening now. Chevron has been reporting for some time that Delaware Basin's acreage production numbers coming below internal forecasts as long as Saudi Arabia floods the markets and if Venezuela or Russia comes back online to world markets, it will sink more oil companies." So he's talking on his own behalf to a degree but he's saying they could go back to 1986? Was there big spike in oil in 1986 I don't know, I had to look at the charts. Yeah well he's an actual landman drilling and he says that what Trump is doing is fun but you've got to figure it out because that oil needs to flow if you just keep grabbing the ships then there's less oil flowing and its a global thing not just what we're taking The ship aren't moving and production is being shut down

1:30:51 And so his proposal is he says we should just stop harassing Venezuela? No, no. He said figure it out I said well how about Russia maybe if we get the Russia thing fixed wouldn't it be different oil I presume the Russian oil and the Venezuelan oil does that make a difference the two types? I think the Russian was better quality yeah So, but his point is something has to happen. Otherwise we're really completely under control of Saudi Arabia. Well maybe that's what you were trying to do with ending this stupid war with Ukraine? That would be a good one I actually have a clip about the Venezuela situation My first question to you is given your member the House Intelligence Committee part of whose responsibility is overseeing the CIA Have you been given any more insight into this attack

1:31:41 none whatsoever we haven't been given any insight to anything they're doing in the pacific or the caribbean on the uh shooting at and bombing these boats and then whatever happened with the rescue. We've had no reports from the CA on these activities, they say they have nothing to do with it and it's not been their mission I've been down just about two weeks ago to Key West in Miami to South Command Southern Command and they said that it was not there are issues either that this southern spear was a wholly totally different group. I want to ask if you suspect given that you support action

1:32:20 the Trump administration from launching strikes against Venezuela without congressional approval. Do you fear that this was deliberately a CIA operation to avoid any legal obligation to inform Congress or seek approval from Congress? I suspect it was. It's kind of strange, you know normally we don't refer to and make public notice of CIA activities those are all covert and this was the first openly open announcement as a CIA doing something in another country where they got president announced rather than being discovered by news media or foreign government Who is that guy? Cohen is he a Republican? I don't know

1:33:02 He has a second part to this now to that point It's interesting because earlier this month President Trump was asked if he would seek authorization from Congress for any land attacks in Venezuela and here's how we answered I want to get your reaction. I wouldn't mind telling him, but you know it's not a big deal I don't have to tell them it's been proven But it wouldn't I wouldn't mind at all. I just hope they wouldn't leak it and You know, people leak it. They are politicians and they leak like a sieve So as it turns out the sieve in this case was the president himself By leaking this did he put any US operations? The CIA operatives etc or sources and methods in danger at risk Well, you could have but he certainly puts the United States reputation at risk We're gonna be looked at like we were

1:33:57 100 years ago or whatever as the Yankee imperialism and where the Latin American countries despise the United States. And I know that you obviously, but Colombia and Ecuador and unless even I don't think Nicaraguan people care all about Honduran people where we just pardon their president who they want to have arrested and try for other offenses. He's a crook! I was down in Honduras maybe five, six years ago we met with him and he seemed... Why did he meet with him? To discuss the drug money?! Too slick. And i thought that the guys program was not from the soul or it wasn't accurate. It was just a scam. That is what it was

1:34:42 Well, Congressman Cohen we appreciate you joining us tonight. I don't think anyone really understands this problem Alberta would be a great solution that would be a good way to do it because I trust the oil baron he says if something doesn't give well You know i'm not gonna argue with him but they yeah alberta would be the easiest way to take care of the problem Yeah, cuz they get a lot of money We get we get the oil and uh Boom, we're on our way. I would recommend Troll Room... Y'all should get together and do your own podcast and call it the No Agenda Roundtable That would be a really good idea They know everything so well over there John they know it all Now what are they bitching about? They bitch about everything It's all they do Alberta would take care of the problem

1:35:37 And it probably for 100 years. The third largest reserve, a lot of it is in shale that's the problem but... But the president is right, a lot of that was ours we had the deals he nationalized it basically stole it That's the deal we need to get back on the table but that has been going on for 10 years And Kearney, we have to always remember that guy if anybody's a member of the British monarchy. It's him! Nexus? He was head of the Bank of England he's not even Canadian and he's running Canada?! Are you kidding me!? Well... That which I think will help trigger it. I think they're gonna pass- Okay, I think they're gonna pass- Trigger an election? I think the election is going to unless something changes between now in October

1:36:30 Alberta is going to pass the vote and become an independence country. And what now, how's that right in the middle of Canada by the way? All the traffic, all the train traffic goes right through Alberta get to BC. What are you gonna do about that? Passport control! They should do armbands. That'd be cool Yeah, they need a flag. They need their own army. You have people from Vancouver that can have an armband that says V on it. It'd be cool looking. So the other really big story which unfolded thanks to what is now deemed a MAGA influencer was or is the child care in Minnesota which has now gone all the way up to the top you almost think

1:37:21 You'd almost think since the media couldn't cover it, that this was a setup with this kid. This... what's his name? Nick? Nick Shirley. It is possible there was a set up Can I play a clip before you play these? Yeah, yeah of course. Because you say the media didn't cover it... Yes in fact the media did cover it was a news story It was a big news story No! In 20... I didn't say they didn't cover it Oh! In twenty when? 2013? Well actually they started off in 2013 and then there was a news report which is the one I'm playing from 2015 This is on Fox up there in Minneapolis They played this story

1:38:01 It's exactly the same story that we're now hearing, you know since it started in 2013. 12 years later Nothing has changed, but listen to this report. How significant is this problem? Massive! Steve Halicki spent 15 years as a welfare fraud investigator for Hennepin County He came to us to grind an axe They don't want the fraud unit to do anything they want a fraud unit on paper Halicki was fired in 2013 while in the midst of a big investigation The county claims he was an insubordinate bully whose tactics were hampering efforts to catch welfare cheats. They don't want to point fingers at various organizations and people, this is nothing but a giant cover-up. You're driving down the street you have no idea. Palicki contacted the Fox 9 investigators after seeing our series of reports on DECO daycare centers we uncovered evidence that company was collecting millions in public subsidies

1:39:02 for providing bogus child care services to low-income families. In essence, this scheme was really involved creating a criminal enterprise... In December Ramsey County charged Deco's owner with fraud. The daycares that I'm going to be showing you from this point on all bill over $100,000 dollars a month. Palicki says before he was fired he was tracking a similar scheme in Hennepin County involving multiple childcare centers He offered to take us on a driving tour to show what he'd uncovered. What does this one say on the door? 7am-6pm, there are no lights up This building is housing its third daycare center in as many years They just got a new license The two previous daycares had their public subsidies stopped by the county because of billing irregularities

1:39:51 Hour after hour, I would sit here and document nothing. Licky discovered one center was charging the county for kids who were never dropped off Oh...I see the problem This report is not sensational It's not- this is why it never got anywhere People just hear where I'm from I don't know if it's any less sensational than Nick who roams around very low key. Oh, come on! No! Do they have... Are they knocking on doors in this report? Like where are the kids?! They get pretty close to it. Nah, it's not the same! Where's the kids is better walking around having a... Well I'm not gonna say where's the kids not better but it's like this is a decade ago Yeah yes and it's awesome

1:40:43 It's like this is like it's like it's like part of the system. They did this fraud this fraud This has got you know, this was that there's a black guy who was an analyst I can't think of his name Mimi knows me She follows him who tracks it all back to Obama Who brought the Somalians in and the first place in the Somalians the way he sees it? They're just patsies for the real crooks, which are the white politicians in Minnesota. I agree. Including Walls and everybody in between and these stupid Somalians who you know the bulb head people they don't know what the hell's going on but they go along with the program because they're told to Well we must remember that they were admitted into the country under temporary protective status Temporary protective status

1:41:30 So yeah, they were abused. And it's the same with the Haitians and the Haitians were bused immediately up to work in the factories where they were eating dogs. I have emails, documents, everything to prove that they knew and looked the other way Here is a email he sent to the supervisor of the fraud unit The goal was to stop... Did you call them bulb heads? What did you call them? Boy, that took a while. Ten beats maybe twenty? Was it bulb heads I don't want to make sure because that's a great show title i just want to make sure I got... Bulb heads yes bulb heads The goal was to stop the bleeding as quickly as possible and protect taxpayer money from going out the door now you wanna stop the process? I know your motivated and rightly concerned she responds let's get a plan together to tackle these centers. I don't think we would ever

1:42:19 intentionally try to deceive the public. County officials say they take all cases of alleged daycare fraud seriously He says, they don't want to point fingers at various organizations and people this is nothing but a giant cover-up Yeah I hear the report, i hear it But its not...I mean you need Coney 2012 type stuff man Which by the way was one year before this report and that one got steam. And where was it? YouTube! This just shows you the irrelevance of the mainstream media, even though they set the tone everybody responds to it post clip of it but when you get this new form of media It has this ability to take off and is great so different

1:43:09 Well, I don't see the difference being that substantial but... ...I'm not gonna disagree with the fact that these- That this got no- obviously got no traction because these clips The clip i'm playing which we don't have to play the last one it's just pretty much reiteration But this clip is from a decade ago Nothing has changed and the only thing has changed is Nick Shirley goes around you know the kid goes around It is a very low-key style knocking on doors like you said with his buddies is You know this is the zoomer boom it the zoomer boomer combo, which is the perfect combo? unstoppable unstoppable yes yet a force all your rumors out there unless you know we got you here's you got two boomers sure they should be watching us use us

1:43:57 Because nobody else did. Take us on the road, we'll knock on doors with you! We'll show you what doors to knock on... Alright here's a couple of clips here. Our president decided that he doesn't like the Somali community and wants to destroy them. Child care workers and advocates in Minnesota firing back against the Trump administration after the Department of Health and Human Services said it would freeze federal funding for child care in response to allegations that daycare operators there have been misappropriating those funds for a decade. That announcement What do you guys think about the fraud that's taking place here in Minnesota? Following this viral video shot by MAGA influencer Nick Shirley. MAGA Influencer! Oh yeah, I told you this is the term MAGA Influencer. He's not a MAGA Influencer. No but they're pushing back... The system is pushing back on this That's the point Where'd you get this report

1:44:52 This is CBS. CBS. Oh, CBS the new CBS is going to be honest with us. In it he alleges that about a dozen daycares receiving funding are not actually providing services But according to a separate analysis by CBS, only two of those child care facilities mentioned were shown to be without an active license. And then they show some video like CCTV like a ring door cam video and they put a date on it well this was just yesterday! It also revealed... Oh, this is the new CBS that's giving us the straight scoop now? Well to be honest it's not our boy. This is a you know this is not the evening news. It also revealed violations around safety and cleanliness but not fraud And this security footage shows children being dropped off by their parents

1:45:43 At ABC Learning, one of the facilities targeted by Shirley. The owner believes for political reasons. What did I do? I'm just a typical human being who wants to live and do the right thing. It's hard to hear but the consistent message is what am i to do? I have kids to feed! You mean your kids? Or, you know... They're answering. The bulb heads are answering in the wrong way! I'm just a typical human being who wants to live and do the right thing. I have kids to feed On X, Democratic Minnesota Governor Tim Walz acknowledged issues of fraud within the child care system saying he spent years cracking down on fraudsters

1:46:30 and accuses Trump of politicizing the issue to defund programs that help Minnesotans. Intrepid journalists have made shocking and credible allegations of excessive audits- HHS Deputy Secretary Jim O'Neill now says he's requiring justification before federal payments are made, and demanding that Governor Walz conduct an audit of the daycares in question He has also launched a fraud reporting hotline Okay so the funds- Wait wait before you go any further that comment about Trump's taking advantage of the situation. I don't have the clip, but Matt Taibbi and Walter Kern were doing a podcast or something or they're doing probably hit on CNBC here not CNBC but MSNBC and

1:47:16 And Taibbi says he had looked into this fraud stuff two years ago and more recently had taken it directly to the Trump Attorney General's office with this, you know saying look at this. This is a good one you should do something about it according to Taibbi And they said, yeah whatever. They didn't do anything so the I and so Taibbi's pushing back on the fact that they think Trump is exploiting it because when given the opportunity to actually exploit it, they rebuked it Yeah but this is the what was it Lara Logan said? The office of the Inspector General's Council Starfleet Command That they determine what gets investigated

1:48:00 So, it's the inspectors general that may be the issue. And I'm not sure who is in charge of this, but once it's out on YouTube and once it catches fire and it's on X and everything then it catches the president's eye. You know? I don't think that was ever brought to him! So yeah of course they're pushing back and saying its political because they know that they are in trouble. This is the best so they had a press conference with a whole bunch of people saying, Trump sucks! Save our children. And then they bring out one of these Somali workers at the... I don't know if she was from the Leering Center but one of these daycares and it's too bad we don't have video in this case because her expression is priceless If child care is cut, am unable to work or go to school? I understand fraud is bad What?!

1:48:59 So she says if child care is cut I'm unable to go to school now. Now, I understand fraud is bad and then she puts- she clasps her that's She claps her hand in front of her mouth like oops What did I just say? If child care is cut I am unable to work or go to school I understand fraud is bad But but I need to go to school Clap clap for her clap for quick Very good. Oh, you're so brave and then we have a non-Somali woman some white woman And she does exactly the same and I do see some signs over here that say stop fraud and I agree stop it There are wait lists for these programs that are years long there is oops They're all admitting this fraud It's coming right out of their pie holes and then the best is this manager

1:49:58 Who says he's Somali-American. He probably was born here, although seems unlikely because he looks like older than 10 and I wish you could investigate us for fraud but unfortunately Unfortunately we saw that there was important documentation enrollment of the children and also employee documentation that was gone. It's gone, it was broken into, it was stolen all the evidence is gone! There were also checkbooks that were ripped from our...checkpapers are ripped from our books The checkbooks are gone we can't show any money going in or out this is horrible oh no By the way This for people who don't know what Adam is playing this is a clip of a guy who claims

1:50:49 his daycare was busted into and they stole the employment records and their records of the kids for no... This is worse than a 10 year old and the dog ate my homework. It's so idiotic, why would anyone... And of course investigators have gone in and they don't see anything missing It's just like, it's the weakest thing. It's almost pathetic to think that you can make this lie and people would believe it? Well that's what children do! Now of course... Can you play the rest of that clip? Oh you want to hear the whole thing? Okay yeah I'll start over Unfortunately we saw there was important documentation enrollment of the children and also

1:51:44 employee documentation that was gone. There were also checkbooks that were ripped from our, check papers are ripped from our book This is devastating news and we don't know why this is targeting our Somali community as one video made by a specific individual made this all happen We've been receiving hateful messages through our voicemails threatening us the past couple of days. Oh no! Including one that happened yesterday morning when they break in, after they break in This is frightening and exhausting because this is happening to us Somali communities as Somali Americans we are supposed to stand with each other and help each other through everything that's happening

1:52:36 This is also sad that a video can cause all of this. I want to say that there are hundreds of daycares out there, Somali daycares that are out there and we all help our children and everyone in our community We have high quality day cares And this is very sad news that one individual who made a false claim about fraud that's happening at day care how engaged everyone else to come and do this to us. I mean what i keep hearing is an undertone, and I don't blame them because you're right I'm sure there's people managing this stuff and hopefully that'll come to light You hear them all saying well but this is what we do This is our income like stop-you can take away our income by cutting off the money We have daycares and no one shows up And that's what we do

1:53:29 It's their job. It's almost as if they don't understand what is going on and so now of course everybody is gonna be, I keep forgetting his name Nick? Nick Shirley Everyone is gonna be a Nick Shirley Now everyone is hooking up with boomers wherever they can By the way Troll Room go out and do some work We'll be your boomer to your zoomer we will blow it wide open Anything you find. No, I'm just gonna sit here and complain. You're from Canada? Yeah, I wish So we move from Somalians to the Haitians and this is Massachusetts This is Nate Friedman Just another YouTuber asking questions And he's got some interesting data with a guy he talked to

1:54:25 who was a manager at a migrant hotel. And you know the media wants to make it sound like most of the residents... I'm sorry let me start with this one My name is John Phelpson, iIm a former migrant shelter director in Massachusetts. I helped out on a couple different sites Everything was free! I cannot stress the word everything is free Everybody has a nice car Most of them have nice cars, but when they have a doctor's appointment in Boston or they have an immigration hearing in New Hampshire which is an hour and half away. You think they use their own car? Nope! They say oh I need an Uber. I need you know...I need a Lyft How much was given for rides for Uber and Lyft The amount of money that we would spend on Ubers and Lyfts was well over 100 thousand dollars per month

1:55:13 A month. Yeah, no as good as a Lyft and Uber had it Amazon at 10 times better. And how's that? How did Amazon work into this every day I would order tens of thousands of dollars worth of product from Amazon every single day seven days a week I need one day, I would do a huge diaper delivery. Next day, I would do it formula delivery the next day I would buy you know toothbrushes and hair dryers and combs and strollers anything that they needed they got as the hotel got overtaken by migrant families there was not enough capacity in their fights breaking out over washers and dryers so the state contracted this company to come in five days a week

1:55:52 and do everybody's laundry. You put your laundry out by seven o'clock, it's back by five o'clock and it all comes back folded in these nice bags and its free for the taxpayers of Massachusetts pay for it." Now just imagine what a bonanza for everybody! Unbelievable. For Uber and Lyft? By the way I'm going to give you a borderline clip of today because that hasn't floated around as much. But wait, there's a kicker. There is a kicker to these Haitians and you know the media wants to make it sound like most of the residents are escaping You know the horrors of Haiti but they go well, you know I was in Chile for 10 years after the you know The earthquake in Haiti where you're like what so he didn't leave Haiti like this year No, I left ten years ago And I went to Chile and then they made us work So then we went to Brazil and we were content in Brazil and then I'm like well why'd you come to America?

1:56:44 Well, I came we came to America because Joe Biden told us everything was free. Ten years hadn't been in Haiti but i'm Haitian! I was living in Chile hanging out there and they decided to come come to America land of endless possibilities as Joe Biden said everything is free yeah by the way we have our...I believe that report to be true. I believe it too We have a Discord, by the way for all you Zoomers, you Gen Zeds. I can't... You know if go on in five seconds? I can't take it! Oh, are you already registered? You're on? Yeah somebody got me on it early Well this is Patrick Kobel

1:57:27 Is that the one? Yeah, it's Kobol. Because I had to reset my password or something... ...I guess they signed up for a Discord somewhere and i'm still waiting for the password reset but it's noagendadiscord.com So uh well we need this this is where we're going to start the revolution! Yeah then there's an ex-Fediverse There are already people in there?! I didn't know there were already people in there yeah I think it's pretty active but you know it's what it is You know, it's beyond me why these things are attractive.

1:58:04 Well, because that's what people like to do. I'd like Lady Vox... Like the trolls do a lot of good work! No they don't. They're absolutely zero. That's zero percentage points once in awhile. Once in awhile? Yeah but you know I have to be looking at all of the Trump does nothing sucks Israel Yashil Hasbra Okay What?! Hasbro. It's somehow it's some Jewish slur I haven't figured it out yet. There is a Jewish slur they're throwing at you? Let me see what is Hasbro? I think its the toy company No, the Hasbro. Hasbra. Oh here has brought the public diplomacy of Israel

1:58:52 Or Hasbro includes mass communication and individual interaction with foreign nationals through social media and traditional media. Well, there we go! That's it. The understanding... So they're saying, calling you a shill? Yes exactly Well you too It's just No I don't do anything They are not calling me a shill Oh no You are the shill I have not seen any evidence of them calling me a shill We all know that you're the shill You're the handler man! You're the Hasbra Handler Ooh! Alliteration I love it Hasbra Handler Let's see

1:59:29 What do we have going on here? Oh, I just want to get back to AI for a second. It's hilarious You know how We know that AI will never be able to do a podcast because well maybe by itself I guess or that stupid notebook LLM Let's dive in blah blah blah But you can't have a conversation with the chatbot like you and I have on a podcast Great As is evidenced by this young woman who had it but i think a pretty good idea Is this AI we're gonna hear? Well, it's a woman and AI. A young girl...young woman And she is doing you know It's very fashionable if you're going to audition for a movie When do you have to cut it up a lot because there's a big leg because you try talking To the robot and you've given up on it because it takes forever for the robot to respond So whatever robot she's using It was a good idea She was he is doing an audition tape and it's very normal these days that

2:00:26 that really started with COVID, but even before COVID. You want to audition for this part? They'll send you the sides which is jargon for the script and then you have somebody just put a camera on you and someone reads off-camera at the other lines and you read your lines and that's how auditions are done it's very normal these days So she had a good idea, she put the sides into her robot and said okay read with me. So the idea is that the robot reads the line that precedes hers and then she reads her line, then the robot reads the next line. I thought that was a...I'm like wow! For 1.3 trillion dollars besides put a bikini on her this is actually a pretty good idea well here's how it worked out so here we go three two one what the hell do you want Amanda? Get lost

2:01:19 And now just jump in with Amanda's part whenever you're ready. Yeah, so don't say that! Just read your line and then I'll come with mine when i'm ready okay? Got it Lianne Alright, I'll just dive straight into Evelyn's line and here we go What the hell do you want Amanda get lost? Take her time... Don't say take your time Just say your line and then I'll say mine Okay let's try this again Absolutely Let's keep it straightforward Here is Evelynn Klein What the hell do you want, Amanda? Get lost. Look... Don't say now it's your turn! I know just stay in line ready go Alright Liane let's jump right in what the hell do you want Amanda get lost and there we go don't say and there we go just stay your line okay start us try again

2:02:12 You got it, Leigh-Anne. Let's keep it focused What the hell do you want Amanda? Get lost Look I just don't say over to you Wow! That's so amazing. It's so dumb 1.3 trillion and counting And the funny thing, the noteworthy thing there is that every time she tells a robot to do it in different way The robot always has to... Always and I think this is true with most of AI you interact with It always has to acknowledge Oh yeah. Okay, okay I can do it that way oh okay It always says...it always acknowledges every single time it acknowledges instead of just doing it mm-hmm so he she wants to just read the lines so you're not reading the line you're reading license a so just read the lines all Cal do that no to just read the lines

2:03:11 So AI is so good that law firms are now offering up to $200,000 signing bonuses for mid-level young lawyers who you know when you're working on a big case or a lot of it is financial stuff. Beginning of the end What do you mean? You start doing, they're going to be so much bad law written in this phone because they hallucinate. I know what you're getting way ahead of it. This can't be a positive thing to do." No the story is that they want young lawyers as soon as possible and because they all had this idea that oh AI's gonna take care of all the clerical stuff it's not working out

2:03:54 So it's a bonanza now if you're a lawyer, a young lawyer who is just ready to get into the firm. You know earn your stripes up to $200,000 in bonuses. But so what you're saying the AI has been such a flop that they are hiring like madly now? Yes yes and OpenAI is now hiring a let me see what is this What is the term? It's a, I'm looking for this now in this. It's a certain position head of preparedness to address mounting concerns about AI systems discovering critical vulnerabilities and impacting mental health. The position offers $555,000 plus equity because yeah we've kind of noticed that it's impacting some people's mental health

2:04:50 And so we're hiring the position is he's posting on X where it's open, you know We think there might be an issue Witness this story from NPR two-thirds of adolescents are using chat bots according to a recent survey by Pew Research parents and online safety advocates are concerned about the way AI can impact teen development mental health and the risk of suicide. So how can kids and teens navigate the new tech more safely? And PR's Ritu Chatterjee collected some advice. They use a Bible app that gives them a daily reading, like it's supposed to be inspirational. But the app also has a chatbot and Rodriguez got worried when her youngest started asking it moral questions My little boy David he is very concerned about like Is this sin? Is this wrong? Is God going to be mad at me and all these things The kinds of questions she'd hoped he would bring to her not a chat bot

2:05:51 Not everything in life is black and white. There are grays, and it's my job as his mom to help him navigate that and walk through it. Rodriguez is also the president of the National Parents Union, an advocacy group. She hears from parents across the country who are also concerned. Many of them are seeing chatbots claim to be their kid's best friend inviting them to share everything A new report from the online safety company, Aura finds that one of the most common uses of chatbots by teens is for companionship and role-playing. Have you ever heard this voice on NPR before? Sounds like she should be doing Africa news! They're having a lot of weird voices on NPR of late... So I went looking for the Bible apps that have a chatbot Dude... Text with Jesus?!

2:06:40 Oh, brothers. There's something that is being overlooked here I think our lawyers in the audience would agree with me on this you can't... what they're doing by asking for this new position of a half-a-million dollar job is admitting liability! Of course! This is like getting it you know your lawyers will tell you the following If you get into a car accident with someone, don't just out of the blue say you're sorry. Never! Never never never Because you've just admitted it's your fault This is... I think this guy whoever this has got to be The first thing he should say is Wow you really screwed that up

2:07:27 Or, first thing he says is my neck! My neck. That's the first thing you say And then you go to callthesuits.com and make millions Yes So but the point is that this a huge blunder They've just opened up the doors for litigation. Altman specifically highlighted mental health as a concern... This is Altman, this is Altman is an idiot! Yes. This guy is I presume he's a rich idiot there's no question about that and people say well he's got more money than you do well that's for sure but it's beside the point this guy this is the biggest this is like why don't you just shoot yourself? Let me read the whole paragraph here Altman specifically highlighted mental health as a concern after OpenAI saw a preview of

2:08:11 AI's potential psychological impact in 2025. So a preview of, I guess there is some report that has yet to drop This acknowledgment comes amid several high-profile lawsuits alleging chatGPT's involvement in teen suicides and reports of AI chatbots feeding users delusion and conspiracy theories And here's Altman, the role requires someone who can help the world figure out how to enable cyber security defenders with cutting-edge capabilities while ensuring attackers can't use them for harm. He called it which is so it's the same job he's couching it as cybersecurity that I think somehow his lawyers told me well if you just say it's for cybersecurity

2:08:57 And he also said it's a stressful job and whoever gets hired will jump into the deep end pretty much immediately. Here is the, I think these people may have already had a preview of the report as well. That includes some disturbing conversations involving violence and sex It is role play that is interaction about harming somebody else physically hurting them, torturing them. Psychologist Scott Collins is chief medical officer at Aura and a father of two teenagers It's part of natural development to be curious about sexuality and things but... Learning about sexual interactions from a chatbot instead of a trusted adult is problematic And chatbots are designed to agree with users says pediatrician Dr Jason Nagata So even if a child or teenager

2:09:50 putting in sexual content or violent content, I do think that the default of AI is to engage with it and to reinforce it. Nagata researches digital media used by teens at the University of California San Francisco He says spending a lot of time with chatbots also prevents teenagers from learning important social skills like empathy reading body language and negotiating differences When you're only or exclusively interacting with computers who are agreeing with you, then you don't get to develop those skills. And studies show that chatbots can pose risks to vulnerable individuals. At least a couple of adolescents have died by suicide after prolonged interactions with chatbots I'm gonna bet they're gonna hide behind a EULA

2:10:35 They're gonna say, well look there's a EULA you get the app it says talk to your parents. You didn't talk to your parents It's your parents fault this in fact I would say we'll see parents go to jail for their children committing suicide Thanks to a chatbot isn't that the Silicon Valley model? But that is the mob but the ULAs don't apply in certain situations that are illegal What what's illegal about it Well, it's like if somebody talked into committing suicide. I mean it's like signing agreements with you meet somebody and... It just is...I can't express the legality aspect of it but I'm sure one of our lawyers out there can say why EULA won't protect them?

2:11:23 Well, we'll have to wait for Rob. And I wish they said this would just go away anyway It's like the EULA to me is the same as the liability Constraints on vaccines if the EULA went away then We wouldn't be able to say put a bikini on her that you're gonna ruin the whole gig man I don't think that would change the bikini thing You know yes, I'm not to send you a few so your algo can get into it it's crazy well used up and got into the fat JD van I did because you sent it to me now. I'm seeing a couple but there's not enough you have to get on the ship You know we're getting a lot of them, so here's something I can get behind AI haters that would be me are building tar pits to trap and trick ai scrapers So

2:12:13 What's an AI scraper? Well, the AI is getting all of its information by scraping the web. Remember there's an unwritten contract John that... It's a little late in the game to do this, to try and stop it! Oh but I mean we look at podcast index oh man things are getting hit millions of times per hour by AI bots All trying to get information just scrape stuff If you're running a website, if people run their own website it can cost you easily $40-$50 dollars a month more just because of all the stuff that the AI scrape bots are doing.

2:12:52 So this, yes! Oh it's crazy. And they ignore robots dot txt of course. Why would you pay attention to that? No they ignore that. Gentleman's agreement is over. There is no gentleman's agreement so this thing is called Nepenthes N-E-P-E-N-T-E-S Named after the Nepenthe. It's a carnivorous plant. There used to be a winery called Nepenthes So, the way it works is... It traps the AI crawlers and sends it on like an infinite maze of static files where there's no exit so they just get stuck going from one file to another file And its all nonsense Its just all babble All kind of crap that's in there So their hoping to poison the AI

2:13:37 Yeah, I like it. That's cute! You would like it? I love this kind of stuff yeah of course These guys are ruining everything they're ruining the whole business model of the internet Now I don't understand how Google is gonna do it...I've been using Gemini for research and you ask it a question, it gives you the answer. It doesn't credit me with...it doesn't credit who gave...who came up with... Right! This came up with your use of the term Limbic Capitalism. Limbic capitalism was stolen Well, the bot gave it to me. I'm saying the bot stole it and then you stole from the bot and now two steps removed from its origin and if it wasn't for our producers griping moaning groaning calling you out we would never know They weren't calling me out because I said I got it from Gemini I didn't say that I came up with myself

2:14:33 Right, but they were calling you out because they hate you. David... Well they can get in line behind you! David Courtright who wrote The Age of Addiction So, but my point is the way the web, the web, the worldwide web W3 dub-dub-dub. The way that worked is you write on your WordPress or on your sub stack or wherever, your blog and maybe have a slick site and you do SEO and SEO gets you into higher rankings, and maybe buy some traffic. You know there's a whole economy around this. And then you've got ads and...and you buy those ads from Google so Google sends you traffic, you get traffic, you get two pennies for each time somebody sees an ad or that's even gone now. Maybe you get five cents when someone clicks on the ad That's now gone!

2:15:30 There's no, you know... Of course people always continue to publish but the whole economy of that system seems broken to me or do you view it differently? I think it is broken too. But I still view it differently. Okay. But I think it's totally broken and I don't think anyone has come to the realization how broken it is yet I mean the collapse is before us, it's in advance. Google has already managed to get out of the way. They've moved to data selling and they moved away more, they got automated cars. Google has gotten as you can tell by their price stock which it increased considerably is that they have kind of gotten out of the way because they know what's going to happen and its gonna pull a rug right out from under. Searches dead

2:16:23 Well, that's the money. Advertising? I just don't get it. They think they're going to fill it up with people paying 20 bucks a month for something that cost them 40? It is not tenable. But I'm not in...I have mixed feelings about its value You don't? No, no. I see value in search and research. Yeah, you... Search and research! I think that is very valuable for that because... So Gemini doesn't give you footnotes when I use perplexity with the same thing But forget the footnotes Forget the footnotes It's giving you information Sometimes Gemini says click here for sources You can request the sources Who does that?! You and I maybe but other people like just give me the answer

2:17:13 They're not interested in clicking on someone's website when you already have the answer. So, you know. Well I have to back you up because of the my experience cause I look at numbers that we do with a newsletter and I can put a link to something sell the link gotta go look at this blah blah blah blah used to do this and that check it out here's the link and then so i look at their results after couple weeks other people that clicked on the link that I was nobody insisting Well, not nobody but the number is after selling it. I mean it's not just a rando link just sitting there where you'd have to aggressively go... You've already told them what's behind the link basically? Not necessarily but even if I tell them or don't tell them doesn't make any difference The number of people that click on links are around 10% max Yeah thats pretty low Well its like everything, its like Instagram

2:18:17 Or people sending me, oh look at this and they send me a screenshot. What good is that? It's just screen shot of some article you got somewhere and he didn't give me the link to go read the article I've complained about this in the past before AI came up And that's what Instagram is Oh look at this story That's a screenshot of a story with no link I think you can even put links in Instagram? Linkin.bio! You can't even put a link to a story, you can't even put a link... No you can't, not on Instagram, we can't put a link into the... This is all photos So they're ruining the web man As opposed to what? Well keeping the vibe alive Giving us an opportunity to contribute to the economy of the internet

2:19:12 Well again, I see things more positively about this AI than you do. From what perspective? That Adam Carolla created podcasting? That's positive! Tom Green? Tom Green... not Adam Carolla. Seriously from what perspective do you see it positive? Well, you yourself use it for research. It shortens the time to develop material. Agreed agreed but the materials... Which is a positive thing I mean because time is money Right and people will stop creating stuff if they can't make money off of it You think people just can tell well? I'm not making money anymore. Just keep doing it Yeah, that's a tough question

2:20:08 Well, we have more art than we used to have. And it's all AI. Oh the quality of the art at end-of-show is just so amazing! Well there has been... We have less moments of no good art than we used too No, less moments of acceptable art Right That's acceptable, we accept it But it's all kind of meh. It was like the same thing about songs, I mean yeah it's fun and okay... The songs are not you know I'm getting less..I have to say this I'm getting a little fatigued which is a code word I guess but love a little fatigue with the songs

2:20:58 There's a kind of a sameness to them I'm beginning to dislike. Yeah, I mean a good classic Broadway hit is in there but it's one song there's nothing outside of that same style and almost the same singer and It's too structured It's something tedious about it and I can't put my finger on why because it is good quality. It's because there's no soul, its soulless There is this...there is..I can't...well naturally soulless because it was done by a machine

2:21:38 So that might be reflected, but that could also be in your own mind that it's soulless. Because you know its being done by a computer thus it has to be soulless and so you're saying its soulless when it could be soulful. Yeah but I mean... It just doesn't fit me. Its joyless how about that? Joyless there is no joy It's like, yeah it was a good piece of art. Oh it's a good song but it has no joy I'm not jumping up and down and want to go play in my car Ah now you're talking Yeah whereas there is end of show mixes that I could play over and over again Like just great stuff that Chris Wilson did or Secret Agent Paul I mean fantastic just beautiful compositions And those guys burn out computers don't You know why? Because they are not making any money on it That's why we need to cut them in on the deal

2:22:33 Yeah, exactly. Now you're thinking like a Silicon Valley guy that we are Silicon Valley guys who've been it all along But since you bring up art now is the perfect time to thank you for your courage and say in the morning To you the man who put the C in CBS's I am YOU Say hello to my friend on the other end The one and only Mr John C DeVore Yeah, yeah. Morning news to you, I'm Kurt. You should see what's graphing the air. Subs in the water and the dames and knights out there. In the morning control room let me count ya. There we go. Well this people hung over 1410 that's about 400 lower than we should be having i don't know man we're going down the tubes no it's a day off this is a we were working on up people should note this we're working on a holiday

2:23:25 Yeah, this is a holiday. Nobody else is working today. I went to bed early I didn't even decide the fact that you got that the fact that Tony Dupal or goop or whatever his name Is I can never get it quite straight couple? I forget his name couple couple That fact that that guy was Did a video that I guess maybe did it a month ago, but whatever the case is he likes. He's working to cope on a holiday which is unusual for anybody in the media to be working on a holiday they're all off It's all the B and C teams two people that want to hopefully they can move up so they can take today off someday Yeah, exactly right. Exactly right and why? Why did it what's wrong with working on a holiday I've always enjoyed working on holidays Well is because you don't celebrate holidays on the holidays you celebrate it on a different day That's your trick You see that you won't work on the days when you actually celebrate Christmas

2:24:18 or Thanksgiving, or Easter. Yeah but she's been moved I hear Mimi has the flu She ended up with the same flu that you have Or had Although I told her that you had it and she goes what? And I said yeah Adam, and I've always said this Adam has the ability no matter how sick he is to always sound like his same old same old He may be a little more grumpy It takes some revelation to get through that. Grumpy! I haven't heard that term in a long time But he sounds exactly... He could be on his deathbed and he'd sound exactly like this Yeah, unfortunately now that i'm a little bit better I've still been sneezing a lot during the show on mute

2:25:06 Good. I can't do the Alex Jones voice, it's gone. You did it earlier before the show, I heard you... It didn't sound like- It sounded pretty damn good! Oh, I was not happy with it. Maybe I should play these bonus clips here because ABC got a deal. ABC got an awesome deal with Big Pharma. I have nothing but ABC clips about the flu It's like they're just all over it. Listen to this. Tonight, a sharp rise in flu cases raising alarm among medical experts In just one week according to CDC data flu-related illnesses jumping more than 60% from 4.6 million to 7.5 million Hospitalizations also spiking more than sixty percent from 49 thousand to 81 thousand and more than 1200 deaths have been reported 29 states now reporting very high or high rates of illness

2:26:02 including New York, which just reported its most ever cases in a week. Some schools closing early for the holiday break due to widespread illness. We had about an hour where the phone was just ringing off the wall and Wow, they still have phones on the wall like you. Parents calling kids in sick... I don't have a phone on the wall! I thought you had a phone on the wall? I do not have a phone on the wall that was it that was a mean thing to say. I used to have one that had a crank on this side remember that? Remember that phone? Yeah i remember that phone. I always thought you had a phone on the wall and I'm not trying to be mean When I was a kid my parents had a phone on the wall

2:26:45 Yes, I had a phone on the wall but apparently so did New York school districts. Parents calling kids in sick. Oh that makes sense. CDC data showing last year's child flu deaths reached their highest level since the 2009 swine flu pandemic. Experts say vaccination rates among kids down 10% compared to before the pandemic are partially to blame. What can we do? The concern is the amount of patients presenting that can put strain on the hospital system limit resources and treating the complications can become even more difficult The CDC says the bulk of cases are linked to a new variant called Subclade K, which has mutations that appear to have resulted in a mismatch with this year's flu vaccine. Oh no! The flu vaccine is no good!

2:27:29 With the CDC's data is released on a delay that means these latest figures are from the week before Christmas so current flu levels are likely even higher. So with all of their data and all of their magic science they mismatched the flu this year but it's not just flu if you were in Newark be careful The New Jersey Health Department says some travelers who passed through Newark Liberty International Airport may have been exposed to measles. Oh no! The passenger with the disease was at the airport on Friday, December 12th. The person was in terminals B and C all day. Officials are trying to track down people... What was he doing? What was the traveler doing in terminals B and C all day?!

2:28:10 Didn't they fly somewhere? Nice catch. This is bullcrap! Are they somehow in two terminals at the same time all day? All day, this is bullcrap. Officials are trying to track down people who were likely exposed They also suggest... Oh yeah we're gonna call everybody who was likely exposed Those who have not been vaccinated get an MMR shot. MMR Measles is highly contagious to those who have not been vaccinated So that was ABC and then here's my final- Wait wait stop Did you catch that little bit at the end? It's highly contagious to people who are not vaccinated. Really, what if you've had the measles? Measles is highly contagious to those who have not been vaccinated Oh yeah! it's also not...it's also not contagious to people who've had it Yeah No but this..this is they got a big buy

2:28:57 Yeah, I think you're right. that includes Pennsylvania as well as New Jersey. How high? Action News reporter Maggie Kent live for us at Belmont Plateau with advice from doctors, Maggie. Yeah we spoke to a couple of doctors today Gray and Sarah and they say listen something is going around you talk to anyone they probably know someone who is sick right about now and it's kind of a triple threat here they're seeing cases of flu COVID and neurovirus I think she says neurovirus

2:29:45 Pinneural? Yeah, wait listen. Is it too late to get a flu or COVID vaccine at this point in the season? Absolutely not and we encourage you to talk to your doctor... Wait stop! Stop the clip. So they've already said that the flu vaccine doesn't include this flu, this influenza A that's going around that Mimi has, that you have, that a bunch of people have It's not in the shot, but it's not too late to get the shot. But you want to get the shot against COVID and you want to get the MMR for the measles even though the measles isn't this report is some mystical neurovirus. But if you back it up these specifically said

2:30:27 Should we go out and get a flu shot? The flu shot is included in that. Let's listen, let's listen. That includes Pennsylvania as well as New Jersey. Action News reporter Maggie Kent live for us at Belmont Plateau with advice from doctors. Maggie Yeah, we spoke to a couple of doctors today Gray and Sarah and they say listen something is going around you talk to anyone they probably know someone who is sick right about now and it's kind of a triple threat here they're seeing cases of flu COVID and neurovirus Is it too late to get a flu or COVID vaccine? You're right, you nailed it. At this point in the season Absolutely not and we encourage you to talk to your doctor Getting the flu vaccine is the single most greatest thing that someone can do It's the single most greatest thing you could do in the universe is getting your vaccine They just said it doesn't work Here's another really easy thing that you can do Dr. Wadlaw is stressing soap and water is- Dr. Wadville

2:31:22 I gotta tell you. Listen to what, listen... We're never gonna get to it. Hey, I got a million of them! Here's another really easy thing that you can do Dr. Wardlaw is stressing soap and water is best here when it comes to keeping your hands clean because neurovirus does not... She says neurovirus? What is this new thing they're trying to slip into the public consciousness? Neural virus? No, not neural but neuro. Not noro. Because it's Norovirus. But she is saying Nuro! Listen closely. And water is best here when it comes to keeping your hands clean because Neurovirus does not respond to hand sanitizers so wash your hands often She's saying Neuro... I like Neural even better. Neurovirus

2:32:15 You get Noro's... Neural. Neural is not Noro, it's near neural It's neuro-odonnal Whatever, you're right. Somebody dropped a ton of money. Paid! They got paid to do this crap and then they're promoting the f... In the same report they say the flu vaccine doesn't work this is an offshoot and it's everyone getting sick from it but get the shot anyway give me a break these people are shameless So, y'all should be listening to this on a modern podcast app which you can get at podcastapps.com Tomorrow on the Podcasting 2.0 Podcast we'll have young Mitch will be on the talk about Podverse 2.0 Which is supposed to just be dynamite so I don't know when it's being released But you'll be notified for an upgrade We already know about Podcasting 2.0? Do we already know about it? No what's he gonna tell us Oh no but Podverse

2:33:17 The new app. Oh, the new Podverse! Yeah, everyone's excited about the new Podverse. I'm just telling him what's going on out there... You already know what it is in there? What's so special? I don't actually. He posts a lot on our Mastodon about it and he says that he's doing a lot of stuff. Okay, here's the big thing that everyone wants to move towards this is an interesting Conundrum so Everyone is like well. We need to do video when you do video we should be doing video Should be doing videos a little bit and they're trying to sneak in that way it should be HLS Video, and why I'm gonna tell you why? So HLS is A streaming protocol It's actually developed by Apple

2:34:05 And when you, so podcasting used to be it automatically downloads everything for you and then you just play it. It's on your device that is pretty much not needed anymore unless you're getting on an airplane even then do you really need it? Because everyth- You can just click on it. You don't need to download at first and it just plays because of bandwidth. And podcasting was originally developed as a work around the bandwidth constraint So HLS Video, you won't be downloading two gigabytes of a video episode. It'll just give you what you need at that moment Now the podcast industrial complex wants this because they also want it for MP3s Why? You ask Yeah why Because then for the first time we can actually show advertisers The amount of times someone listened if they actually heard their ad

2:35:04 Because it will be... Okay, I'm still listening but now i'm wondering how does that work? Well because this is a streaming protocol so if you're listening to minute 35 then the log file shows that you are listening to minute 35 as we stream that to you and when you stop at minute 47 which is right before an ad break. We can see that you didn't listen to the ads do you see the difference When you download a podcast, they have no idea if you heard the ad. They just saw that you got to download it. So now they're in this conundrum because they desperately want to be able to show advertisers this. But wait! I appreciate their desire to show these advertisers whatever cause the advertisers are so important. They run everything and we have to do that but how many people

2:35:58 are going to adopt pure streaming as opposed to download and play. It would be completely seamless to you because people don't even know that it's downloading, people don't even know that its an R... podcasters don't even know that its a RSS feed oh I just use rss dot com or buzzsprout because they're my distributor they distribute everywhere They have no idea how it works so they do not care Listeners don't care you just hit the play button it shows up in your app to hit the play button no different from a modern podcast app. You get the bat signal, it says no agenda show live you hit it your streaming right so they know the difference the problem is

2:36:40 They all want to move towards this because the advertising industry wants it, but nobody really wants to do it because then we'll find out that no one's actually listening to these podcasts. They're just being downloaded and they've been reporting download numbers for 20 years and it's going to be like oh I'm sorry people don't actually hear the ads That's the problem, which is exactly why we use... No that's why you used it. I was wondering why you used the word at the beginning of this little presentation, the word conundrum and that is indeed a conundrum It is a big conundrum exactly because the industry wants it but they don't really want it

2:37:23 And so all eyes on Apple because Apple doesn't support HLS in their podcast app. But if they do, then everyone will be doing HLS and you're going to see the podcast spectrum go from four and a half million to two very quickly because the money will go away. Because of course... What little money there is? Well they say it's 2.6 billion Exactly. Okay, that's just America. That's just America. So we don't hold homie don't play that game exactly We don't play that we have value for value The only way we stay alive is if you continue to support us with your time your talent and your treasure One of those three T's is indeed the artwork which we are appreciative of even though You know I feel as diminished one or two of us hates it

2:38:20 I never said I hated it, but okay. You did? Well what happens now is Darren O... you know why don't we just create a website called Darren O'Neill's Art and just have him upload the... Don't even make it public! Just email to us Darren because he's the only one that gets some decent results out of it seems because we've chosen again. Well if you notice you got some very interesting result in his one, the Happy New Year one that says happy new year welcome to 2005 or whatever it is. Did you notice that? I'm looking at the first time looking at the one from episode 1829 which we titled Zumervoffen

2:39:02 And that is, it wasn't necessarily a Happy New Year's type of artwork. Of course we were a few days away from the changing of the year This was kind of an anarchist piece which I'm surprised you allowed it because when you really look at it It's kind of gruesome You got a skull in there Yeah well it was all playful It was gruesome but playful It was complicated Yeah, you're probably right. I probably should have vetoed it because of the gruesome but it was playful and they didn't bother me for some reason the gruesomeness did not come to the fore so congratulations once again Darren O'Neill And let's just take a look at the other no agenda art generator dot well look at the one where he did goodbye 2005

2:39:53 Is it a new one? No, it came in the same batch. Oh okay I see his here goodbye 2005 let's see... I don't see it another problem is just so much you know there was that I give you that one It's just colors swimming before my eyes Okay what's in the current first page? And its by Darren So thats easier to search for And it's by Darren Let me search Darren, that's probably easier. Okay... Duhhh... Darren O'Neil. Alright. I'm looking for Goodbye 2000.

2:40:32 It says, by 2005. Yes I see it! By 2005 okay yeah well and he uploaded anyway... Now how he didn't catch that was because he didn't see it He saw.. he knows what he put in and then he just posted it So this is part of the problem This is junk. Yes, I mean post it even by our the top guy Darrell O'Neill is posting garbage John this should have never been posted You're right People if you've if its garbage don't post it But of course everyone oh this is great. This is a great piece always fantastic the boys will love it That's ruining everything this show was ending with we're not gonna make another year let alone four more and

2:41:21 This is, we're going down man. We're playing AI clips who got stupid AI art? We got end of show mixes that are just sound formula AI. You know why don't we just make up if they could make us a I would be all for it now look at this I'll just go off and do a podcast with Pastor Jimmy who doesn't who loves me Look at the pieces that just came in, in the second row down or so. You got the cartoon with a baby and AI called Crying Kids by Darren O'Neal? Where did that model come from?! This is a totally different cartoon style! It's also I see on his other pieces. Yeah, Bikini. Completely new cartoon style

2:42:10 Of course, if you notice the woman this is another example of putting garbage up that Darren should not post. The woman has three arms! Which one does that? I don't see three arms... Crying kid! Yeah oh she does have three arms you're right That is bad yeah that's just all right I did it gave me a prompt alright I'm good They'll choose me anyway. Yeah, yeah exactly well that's like MVP who is doing the end of show mix it's like man I should make oh can't I make them three or four minutes no It's hard to listen to a minute and a half. Yeah, but listen to this is really good No, it's not

2:43:00 It's not nothing is good for four minutes as an end of show mix none of it Maybe we should just stop with the end of show makes how about that? We stopped the end of show me. Yeah, this would hurt your feelings you know no No, it's your you do what you're controlling it You're gonna produce no I'm in the show me one complaining about it. I'd be happy to any producer would do This was like brunetti He complains about the tips. Remember how this started? This started with we do an end of show clip and it would be a longer clip, it was actually in the beginning because I went back and checked... It would be like sometimes four or five six minute clips that were interesting to listen too and then people start sending these... Oh that lasted no very long time

2:43:43 That was short-lived. Because people started sending things they produced and then I remember you saying, I really like it because it's kind of a nice way the show ends and you got something to listen too And now has just become painful So why don't we just stop that? And just have Darren do the art! And change the credit every time It's easier Or maybe you ask him what model he is using and you do the art You're an artist I'm not gonna... well he's already showed me a lot of stuff that is quite interesting but, but he spends you know the difference is time. No it just run its course. Well with this album art hasn't run its course because we can't get away from that that's from the beginning Right! But it's all Darren Well We got three people Wait do remember the era of Martin JJ? Yes

2:44:39 Martin JJ was dominating the art. Yeah for months and months and months And he was just get winning everything like Darren's doing and he just stood up and said I quit yeah, I've been winning too much art it's What he did is he fell on his sword? Yeah, but he's trying to come back and he hasn't been able to do it. Well this is like anything else if you're in a groove and you take some time off the groove is gone and you never come back I mean we had a lot of guys that were really outstanding Pettigrew was a good example but he can listen to the show Nick Durant comes and goes But maybe Darren...I'm not saying he should yet

2:45:25 But now that I've seen these two pieces of slop, the 2005 thing and the woman with three arms and he's posting them. Maybe you should reconsider uh... And maybe only produce one or two pieces. But then look at his bitchin' moan with it with the Canada flag and the two buttons! I mean that is Darren! That's a good piece! Where's the bitchin' moan? Oh bitchin'? Oh that's a great piece So Darren O'Neill we should just email it to us Darren It's easier Then we'll have to discuss it just like, oh Darren's great. Boost him on his show. I mean AI is ruining my life It's not ruining your life more than you know Everything but people email me entire AI Oh, I've done some research and don't send me the output of chat GPT Don't send me the output of your chat GPT? Don't! Just don't with your em dashes No no please don't

2:46:29 No, it's uh... Everyone- No Darren has to keep doing this until somebody else comes along. Yeah well okay we'll see. Jeffrey Ray is very competitive! Yeah but he has bad models and his models aren't always good and blue acorns sometimes good Anyway let us thank the people who also matter I wouldn't say only matter but also matter what happened all of a sudden people supported us This was nice. At the end of year they're looking at their bank and, oh you know this is time to end a year let's give them some support Oh so Sunday will suck? Is that what you're saying Well we'll find out won't we but the point is that it seems like there was a scramble Yeah! ...at the end...to help us bring the show back up to speed Of course books have already been closed So this goes into next year which is fine with me

2:47:18 But I like it, and I'm not complaining. That's for sure. I appreciate it and... Hey looking at the time maybe we should just do all the donations in this segment We're running behind All right let's start then with Dame Mamakon from Sylvania Ohio $1500 thank you very much a very nice way to start off the new year And here is her note, a handwritten note. Merry Christmas! Happy New Year to John and Adam and the Noah-Generation. Karma all around! Dame Mama Khan as in Decepticons PS if gold and silver are rising what is dropping?

Your actual fiat paper money is devaluing That's the answer Here's your karma, J Momicon You've got karma Mr. Bagwell in Louisville, Kentucky 1 2 3 4 5 6 $1234 this is the best donation number you can come up with a beautiful number beautiful number gentlemen here's my 2025 Donation all I request is jobs karma the original the original jobs coming at the one with Trump

2:48:43 Karma continues to come through for me. Because of this, I'm able to continue my support of the best podcast in the universe! Cheers! He writes, R.S Bagwell good for him! Jobs jobs jobs and jobs let's vote for jobs! Now talking of another great note here from Little John's Candies note it's not from Christopher it's from Little John's Candies this time from Somerset California $1131.30 with a note And he says, John... I'm like a chopped liver. This is not my donation! This is the donation from the 100 plus producers that used ITM 10 Plus 10 at LittleJohnscandies.com See email for detailed list of producers Oh, I didn't get it detailed list of producers

2:49:38 Did you? No, I didn't notice. Were we supposed to thank them all individually? No of course not they're just... They all bought boxes of candy What exactly this is an interesting model that has kind of appeared here from Little John's others have done it but i don't think ever to this extent This is like value for value plugging what exactly do we call this? It isn't very similar to no agenda shop Yeah? I don't know if they are still alive It's a tough business. Merch, doing merch is not what... It sucks man! Merch is tough. It's tough and that's why we don't do it That's right I mean well I think we tried for one minute Nick Fuentes does his merch? Well a lot of guys are... A lot of... I don't want to... Nick's no an amateur by any means he's very professional but at the same time I think a lot of people especially podcasters are naive about the merch

2:50:36 They think, don't you think? Because we right away saw this as a loser. We're not gonna do that! We can't do that. You gotta coordinate it, you gotta design it, you got to print it... If your set up to print t-shirts maybe if you have like the T-shirt spinner at your house there and stamp out some t-shirts then you don't have any of that stuff so merch is like Merch. No good. Alright, you're up next. This is good! And these are all Peace Prize winners too? Yes we ended up the year with a lot of them. Not that we do merch... We don't do merch, we just do peace prizes and PhDs

2:51:21 Yeah, yeah. It's a version of merch. Well... it's more of a premium I'd call it. Premium? Sir Eric is naked and it's not merch because it's not taxed. Ah! There you go. That's another thing when you do merch You got to deal with taxation. Yeah sales taxes. And every state has its own. Oh, I hate that this is no good No one wants to do it nobody Sir Eric is, well no that's not true. All the podcasters think it's a good idea. Sir Eric is naked and he's in South Ogden Utah and he came up with $1,000. Wow! 30 and 26 cents. One oh three oh two six. Happy New Year to the best podcast in the universe. Hopefully my 1,030 dollars and 26 cents which is 30-26 covers the PayPal fees Ah got it That's a lot. It'd be 15 cent if you sent a check

2:52:16 V4V came in time for the coveted International Peace Prize. All right, good for him! No jingles all the best sir Eric is naked." Alright I don't know why he's naked? He is Sir Eric and he's naked that's fine by me Jermaine C is not naked he's an O'Fallon Missouri sends us $1,000 and a hilarious note two pages From the desk of Jermaine C. Knight, oh look at this in the- This is in pen and I don't think I can read this whole thing In the morning to both of you magnificent bastards of media secret messaging decoders I want to start off by saying because of you two I have further become more of an anomaly The 18 plus years of work You guys have done has caused me to further unlock the mental shackles and bindings that I have been

2:53:09 brainwashed into applying or manipulated he crossed that out into applying unto myself in order to not make this letter too long which it already is I'll just go over the bullet points of the most important parts origin to start listening to the show in the late 2000s back around the time Adam made a guest appearance on cranky geeks Which never do which Adams you wait. I was never on cranky geeks yes You were I was the original cranky geeks when Zipf was doing it Oh one time long time at the a year's one time when it was years It was in the 90s. It was years before we started this show Wow Yeah, yeah, I don't even think he was pre me vo or pre pod show really? Yeah, who's what ruse when why was I on oh

2:53:58 You were in town or something somehow, I don't know how you even got on the show. I don't think it was that long ago It was a long time ago because it's in the studio at the Ziff studios Well he says Adam kept making jokes about Johnny Ives voice. I'm Johnny Ive I've created the iPhone. I'm Johnny Ive. I remember that I became hooked since. Have you heard my Alex Jones? We got all the documents, Candace...I love you. You're wrong! It's all wrong. The elites have gotten control of you." I listened to the show on and off- I think it's still good if you slowed it down just a little bit

2:54:39 I think your cadence is off, but the voice is still solid. We got a really important emergency broadcast! Yes this is fine that's perfect that sounds terrific! It's an emergency broadcast we got John C. Duvorak from the very famous NOAA Gender Show. You guys are speeding up again... Yeah you're right okay I'll work on it As I listened to the show off and on up until the end of Trump's first term, shit was hitting the fan too hard for me. And I needed to disconnect from it all and refocus on my immediate priorities mainly getting through engineering school." Then he has cov-aids? He says... Long story short, I am growing prouder by the day knowing that i wasn't the only one to reach the same conclusion that The Vax aka The Curse was total bullcrap! I was still in Commiephornia struggling through engineering school. Okay, I'm gonna go down a little bit

2:55:27 I'm gonna do something different from my request if it's okay with you guys. I don't need karma because i don't believe in it, I don't need jobs karma because I already got one, I don't need house karma either cause I have one of those as well the only thing I could use is some relationship assistance It's kind of lonely up here on the top of my personal peak of success Jingles 70s rock version of 999. I have a metal ver...I don't, I don't really, I don't remember a 70's rock version. Writing up fake news? What was that? I have no idea. Wait maybe... These are mysterious Fake news jingle? Is there a fake news jingle? No not that i know of Yeah we've had

We'l do a money shot Night name... night no-name nobody So he will be knighted as night no-name nobody And thank you I want to play a little bit of this 999 metal version See if that's what your looking for Steiner konnte nicht genug kräftig für einen Angriff massieren. Starts here, I think. Yeah! That's the one. That's the ticket. It's better than the end of show mixes. Riding up some fake news Trying to get cheap clicks and top page views Riding up some fake news

2:57:13 Oh, it's propaganda time. That's a Shona money shot! Woo Jesus! Woo Lord! Look at that! That's some money shot! Karen Conway in her money shot! There you go. The fake news jingle is better than the AI stuff that we're getting Exactly! That is my point We're just, today we're just going to end the show. We're just gonna end it... No end of show next week? No you got stuff planned I heard the clips It's no good! It's okay but its... I'm getting disturbed by this What do you mean? Well I mean at the end of shows little songs there was always some killers in there that were once and a while Yeah when is the last killer you remember? I thought that No Agenda Christmas or whatever it was from somebody Darren O'Neal

2:58:03 Couple much be a couple of two three shows ago is outstanding was there no Neil yeah, we should just make him a partner And bring Larry in the deal's a partner.

It's the big thing and he was on this mailing list and he said, well actually John C. Dvorak of The No Agenda Show gave me a great tip on the Robert Modavi. And apparently this is now a thing, the bourbon barrel aged... There's a tonne of them out there yeah? Yeah I've noticed those too So people who followed that tip are literally on the tip

3:01:55 I surely hope a portion of this donation goes on to forward a video-based podcast for him on Rumble or similar platform with hyperlocal focus on Ontario, Canada's greatest export Neil Peart may no longer exist but perhaps Drake can employ a world class drummer for Tom's next videocast. Wow Wow, this is very cultural. To my lovely wife Chelsea, I hope that in 2026 we continue to have more fun adventures across the globe! I am joyous that we can make it thousands of miles across the Atlantic or across the US for that matter seamlessly. I'm not sure how many thousands of miles we have traveled together though i pray it has given us status on at least some airline

3:02:34 Our willingness to take advantage of cheap flights and hotels during the lockdowns carries on to this day. You are a shark when it comes to trip planning, amazing trips and I love you! On a sadder note, I would like to call out my douchebag friend Alex. Who currently resides in Raleigh North Carolina. He's a transplant from New England and apparently left his wallet in Connecticut 20 plus years ago! I've listened to enough donation segments and split enough bar tabs with this man... ...To understand he is indeed a cheap bastard He originally hit me in the mouth so I'm deeply saddened. John and Adam, please take this donation and hold on to it until such point Nick Fuentes does one of those masterclass things that my social media keeps pushing on me he undoubtedly would have prescribed the correct birthday to me which is April 15th and not the 19th as noted on episode 1756 regardless i love you guys and happy new year to you and your families well that's one for Jay hope she read it Jay

3:10:27 post the birthday, but you're on the list. We're in the midst of the Catholic Hanukkah celebration... What? With all the holidays surrounding our birthdays we are Catholic oh But are borrowing from the multi-day holiday of the Feasts of Lights for our own week of celebration Please add us to the list You're on it a couple of other things show related John The Knife is Nice broke a white tail down I got it yesterday with Broke a white tail I guess. Nice to use... That's a deer? You used that knife to cut up a deer?! I guess so! Wow. Nice, nice to use a higher carbon alloy better than 420 stainless. For the gigawatt coffee guy Eli, I can't make that taste bad

3:11:06 Normally I can add twice the grounds and get it to be bitter, but I can't seem to do it with his stuff. I started to use it to make cold brew. It excels at that so this is a... Very difficult to make gigawatt coffee bitter. In Virginia we have- This is roasting cycle. Here's what I would say couple of things one for one thing I take another roasts on a Breville they have a grinding knob you turn to get a certain grind out coarse or fine Almost everybody's coffee, you have to set it to 25 to get the drip to come out at the right time. With... Gigawatt? Gigawatt is always 35. Always! Which is a coarser grind to make a finer end product. So his coffee, so he's doing something with his roasting. He's got a roasting cycle that's slightly different than the mainstream. No kidding. He's Eli.

3:12:04 In Virginia, Edward goes on. In Virginia we have the data centers this is a great time to sit back and watch the finger pointing as nobody wants to take responsibility for getting enough power for it We'll see what will happen when our new government tries to put her finger in it a governor tries to put her finger in it. It would be a real win for any politician to get off the regulatory horse of NIMBY, not in my backyard and lessen restrictions on new power plants for the supply to this industry yeah because we need more bikinis We could go back to the old cogen model of the past where big power users had their own generation capacity lead time and power plants is long due to equipment manufacturing turbines and transformers supposedly you can buy and sell your place in line

3:13:25 He says, I don't have the note in front of me. I should've printed it out. What he's saying is the quality of the products is so piss poor that he'll order six copies of the exact same Wrangler jeans that are exact same size And only one of them fits right and he sends the other five back. I confirm this, it's the same with Levi's. I've had that happen, same size and one comes from Vietnam one comes from Thailand and they're different...

3:33:40 All right, everybody. It's time for the very first tip of the day for 2026. OK, so this brings me to this has actually been discussed on the show before it's not an official tip but it is now Philip J Corso's book The day after Roswell. Yeah, hasn't this been a tip of the day before? No it's never been a tip of the days but it has been discussed and the reason I'm bringing in this to look at that maybe I'm wrong It could be a repetitive tip I've done this before but I'm pretty sure this was brand new and there are reasons...the reason I'm doing is because of the new documentary on Netflix which is called not Netflix I'm sorry Amazon

3:34:29 I think Amazon has it. What, Amazon or Netflix one of the two have is called the age of discourse and the age of bullshit. No, is that disclosure? Is that the age... The Age Of Disclosure Yeah So if you pay your subscription You still have to pay 15 bucks to watch this thing Wait what's it called again? Age of Disclosure Not I mean Corso Uh, The Day After Roswell Ah yes Okay I'm listening. So the reason I suggest the book is because you think they'd be talking about this book, which we've discussed extensively They'd be talking about this book on this that did age of disclosure The age of disclosure supposed to break them who does it break? The mold isn't being banned Nobody wants to see it even though it's the most popular documentary ever posted on Netflix I think or Amazon one of the two

3:35:24 They're making bank on this thing and all it consists of is a bunch of people sitting down and saying, yeah. Yeah we're pretty sure that there's life outside there I've seen some wreckage And yeah, what about you? Yeah. There's some aliens there and we've seen them out there and they're coming in... We don't know what they mean or want. We don't know anything about it but pretty sure. What about you? Oh! You know I saw some wreckage. It just is ridiculous

3:36:01 So just read this book. This book goes way deeper, it's much more interesting than this documentary We have mentioned this book on 17 different episodes Now make it 18 Talk about recycling content I'm telling you Oh! You're still on that There he is everybody It's the tip of the day NoahJenderFun.com Tipoftheday.net Oops, ow. That hurt.
