En Banc

00:00 We gotta have common sense. Larry Blytner, Darren O'Neal! It's Sunday August 9th 2026 this is your Gitmo Nation Media Assassination episode 1893 This is no agenda Yes we're broadcasting live from just outside of Chi-Rac right here in FEMA region number 5 In the morning everybody I'm Darren O'Neill A man from the pretentious Connecticut shore this is Larry Blytner keeping commies and creeps at bay with my gleaming scimitar of truth It's Darren and Larry in the morning! But was Billy Idol okay coming into that area? I mean with all the commies. Oh, tell me man... Billy was dynamite what a show it was just electric. I'm still amped up from it so I'm pretty dangerous so watch yourself really it was insane Steve Stevens was on fire 10,000 people screaming Billy and you know what that dude will be 71 this November

00:59 And he moves like he's half that age and looks at it. He took off his shirt and threw it into the crowd, and... he didn't look really bad! You know? Like wow! Yeah I'm not trying that any time soon. That's uh- It was absolutely spectacular. I'm hoping maybe when Adam joins us later maybe he's got a Billy Idol story you know? He knew all those rock stars and stuff We will be joined yeah by the Podfather dude Dude okay I wasn't gonna wait but you couldn't ask me for a Billy Idol story You nailed it, Larry. Man you know that Billy Idol dated downtown Julie Brown? Really? Oh yeah and it was just creepy those two they were so creepy together How creepy can you give me like a for instance Just like you know

01:52 Tonguing each other in the hallways Get a room man get a room. It was nasty Well, she was kind of nasty She probably she's I'm sure she's very nice now now that she's married to a big Hollywood producer Oh and it doesn't have to work In the morning to you boys how you doing? Good I apologize, they don't sound like myself because this was a rare occasion where we traveled and i didn't have to lug along the entire portable studio. I'm not gonna have time! I'm just going to bring along my little PodMobile plug-in device

02:30 You sound great, really. Yeah thanks. Really? Okay yeah it's funny how in whenever you're setting something up and I just have a little tripod for the microphone and don't have they don't have my boom arm it's always that you know whenever you're looking for something to build the studio with in a hotel room. It's always the trash can for some reason, the trash can is always perfect device you know so I got it on top of the trashcan exactly the right height So yeah i'm here in San Francisco and we were here for John

03:09 Memorial yesterday and but first of all man, there were memorials all over the world The meetups that were taking place Horowitz did a big thing in Fort Lauderdale And he was doing like John trivia and he had prizes kinds of stuff and We have what do we have Darren like five or six meetup reports already 1010 already Wow Which I know you guys will play later. I'm just, literally so tired that I wish I could be here for the whole show but this was like yesterday it just all came out you know? It was like just the weeks honestly months because of John's earlier medical stuff and

04:02 dragging the cart along but you know with lots of help from everybody and just really not know it was closure. It was big closure for me personally, um But it was so I mean maybe let's just do a chronologically now we got in that we flew out Friday From Austin so that by itself is just such a hassle man like an hour and 45 drive for us And then being out southwest was dull plays and just all so anyway we get in, we get into the hotel um and we come in. We're in like 7 30 and uh Dana Brunetti who doesn't know him Hollywood producer of the biggest movies in the world and his beautiful wife Alex they said well we'll come to the hotel we'll grab some dinner So I mean we had a great great dinner with with Brunetti what he and his wife did...I never met them in person

04:54 Just a lovely, lovely guy. So no agenda so anti-Hollywood He is one of us man I'll tell you that he is one of us and then the next day everybody was coming in. We had Sir Mark and Dame Astrid flew in from Tokyo, which is just you know they are the Archduke and Archduchess of Japan uh and the Japansea and all the disputed islands... And I mean these people they've been listening since episode one. Wow! They've been with the show And for people who don't know them, you should just look up Dytham. Klein Dytham Architects in Tokyo they have done some of the most amazing buildings I think they've probably done like 20-25% of Tokyo's most beautiful buildings like

05:49 The Emperor's Library, you know they did the... I think that the Fender guitar building. Really? Yeah! Sony building They've just done such amazing projects and they're just lovely lovely people He is British She is Swiss But they both been in Japan forever Also flying in for this occasion was Voyage Zero Mark coming from Netherlands Wow! He..I mean it was...just... I haven't seen him Let 12 years last time since I saw him in person Sir Patrick Coble, of course sir. Patrick Coble is everywhere every single place anywhere There's something good a meetup if sir Patrick Coble is always there So we hung out with them for a little bit Had kind of a lunch Really couldn't eat much. I knew I was going to be speaking they have me on the on the lineup for this gig and

06:51 So we all went to the chapel in Oakland, beautiful just thing is like I don't know must be a hundred over 100 years old probably about 70 people there and as you know so Mimi said a few words Eric DeShill became up with his wife Janelle from South Dakota. People know Eric DeShill he used to do the back office before Jay came in to do that and he was master of ceremonies. Then Marty Higgins, who wrote many of the jokes for John throughout the years... He's been friends with Mimi I think first for 40 years. And then he did the eulogy

07:36 It was kind of cool because he came to me later and he says, you know I have something for... Most these people were as old as wood. They're all like in their 70s or 80's. I'll just be honest about it. And Marty is like, do you remember when John was doing the Confucius stuff? Yeah! I remember that. Do you remember that Darren O'Leary when John would open the show and he would do a Confucius Says? He was doing this for maybe a month And they would be okay, you know? I think a Confucius says maybe is not the best thing for an opening. But anyway... So Marty comes up to me and he says do you remember the Confucius says stuff? I say yeah. He said well I wrote those! Uh-huh. He said you gotta understand the backstory John called me up one day and said I got a great idea for book it's a comedy book and it's just filled with Confucius Says

08:32 so and Marty says, but I guess you didn't like it or something. So I never knew what's supposed to be a book John just was throwing this stuff at me I'm like okay he gives me a list of 250 Confucius says that he wrote for that book and they are so... most of them I can't even read on the air. When it starts with lesbian who curl hair, no, I'm just gonna leave that one where it is. Did he do it with a Chinese accent? If John tried to do it with the Chinese accent that may have been part of the problem now that I think about it.

09:18 So Marty does the eulogy funny. I mean he's a he used to be Marty in the morning, you know He did radio morning radio back in the late 70s so these are all just really interesting people then Brennan Jay his husband spoke and he just had a lovely bit about You know how he asked John if he could marry J twice and but you can only imagine how hilarious that situation went both times then in my piece and then they had kind of an open mic which was appropriate because there were comedians and there were just wild and wacky people there so Void Zero, Void Zero was phenomenal you know the sys admin who's always quiet and doesn't say much and he just kinda sits there makes everything run yeah

10:09 Man, Void Zero. We almost had to give him the hook he wouldn't stop and he had written 10 thousand words but it was all so beautiful and you know that you could just tell how everyone had been affected by John and then you got like the old PC Mag publishing days which Mimi doesn't even know them that predated her and John's relationship There were stories about how John had ghostwritten the the first book by Adam Osborne I mean this is going back right? guys who were in the original, you know deck day

10:49 days of computing and everybody kind of had the same basic story about John where he'd call you up and go hey, that was how John called you on the phone. He never called me but one time he did, hey Dorak! And everybody had very similar stories some people were just like Wow that these guys exist. Yeah You know that they really that they're from these old computer days and they had stories about just like, you know devices and peripherals that you'd recognize and how John was, you know just always all on top of this in a common theme, you know people

11:32 might often get the... I've always known this, but it was said so perfectly by one of the speakers that John, it always sounded like he was just crapping on everything. You know like the mouse and the iPad and Apple Watch and all this stuff The point was made that John actually because how he wrote about these things drove people to make better products True And I think thats true that, you know just the way he would just drive a wedge into anything that people were trying to make that was cool including myself by the way when I would be so proud of the Howard Stern interview I did and he said it sucked! It sucked. You didn't mention the show enough. I don't think even mentioned me. And it made me better and that was a very clear message from everybody there

12:29 Oh yeah, that's clear even with the art stuff. I mean Dvorak was great if he liked my stuff it wasn't anywhere near as fun Exactly and i guess i knew that inherently but its not until people started saying it that he was so you know John could have a multi-multi multimillionaire because he had inside dirt on all products. He could have gone to work for any company, told him how to do it but that wasn't what he did. He wrote about how these products sucked because he felt they could be better now he didn't necessarily always say it would be better if but

13:10 That was that really was a big part of his role in the world and and I really came to appreciate that hearing that yesterday Oh, yeah. Not like computers became a thing. Yeah Think about the world actually molded with those words at the back of those PC magazines And elsewhere it is quite amazing It all kind of came together for me when Sir Patrick Coble and many of the NOAA gender producers and artists were in on this, and they helped crowdfund it. And helped find the different knickknacks I posted it on X. Sir Patrick Cole made two shadow boxes

13:54 you know, shadow boxes. I guess typically like you get one if you served in the armed forces or you had a child who was killed somewhere in the armed forces. You get this beautiful wooden box with glass in front and has the flag and their medals and their picture etc., and Patrick's an ex-marine And these things, you've got to zoom in on this picture. It had just all these different artifacts of John and of me and have no agenda including a an HO scale model of the Zephyr that had one of the other a mouse in there, it had an MTV patch. It had a first gen iPod you know back in the day when John was taking digital pictures and always saying your camera your phone's camera sucks why do you use that of course he was trying to make that better and it did get better over time you know little handheld digital cameras

14:49 one of his Dvorak speaking typing tutor software packages. I mean just, it's such a lovely...I couldn't hold it together man when he gave that to me and he even had it custom made for a suitcase because it had to fit in the suitcase for us to take it back! That just, no ageneration man, so beautiful There really is nothing like it in the world. Let me see if I got everybody in here... Well, so what was that? There was something another point I was gonna oh yes

15:29 Victoria Raconje, I don't know if you know who she is. She's like the CBS LA Entertainment reporter and...I actually had forgotten this but the one time that went to John's house The one time i was invited and not allowed to go see the studio was a Thanksgiving and he'd invited Victoria as well. She's this really cute Asian LA reporter, and she's like an undercover Republican Catholic who of course could never let on about that doing her job but John knew all about her...

16:09 I mean, would just stand up and say you know people don't understand how John helped me in my career. He would give me the same thing that he's doing for the PC industry. He would critique my work tell me what to do but it would also make connections like oh call this person now they're waiting for you. He helps so many people further their careers that people don't even know about. So just unbelievably beautiful beautiful to hear all of that. We had a slideshow, you know there's the little urn sitting there which I always find creepy you know John's in their heads no way he fits in there his kids were there of course and then we all walked down the street to Kona bar Kona which is like a Tiki Bar The lovely folks from Violetta Pizza who have a place right across the street they brought him pizza

16:59 and, um, you know everybody was just hanging out. And just having a very, very good time Dame Rita from Sparks, Nevada showed up I mean it's just It was mind blowing how much love there was for John and i think it was really good that we all Just got to have some closure at this point At a certain point Tina looks So we just had to go home and like, oh no. I'm staying here today there's a lot of paperwork I've got to help Mimi with because you can imagine not everything was all set up for this moment in time so we have some bank stuff to do that she can't act as bank accounts. Passwords don't know passwords!

17:54 No, we got the passwords. We got because you know she had always said John well what if and John said now you'll figure it out? Well here we are figuring it out. I mean can you believe that yes yeah we're figuring it out so um It was just great and I'm so looking forward to hearing the meet up reports from everybody from around Gitmo Nation Without exception, everybody says hey I really like this combo of Darren and Larry and Adam coming in. There's something going on here that... Like Sir Patrick Coble had a thought an interesting idea that you know if people we have so many boots on the ground it's one of the secrets of no agenda is, We have somebody who's an expert in whatever the story of the day is and uh It's so easy for everybody to just record something maybe if there's something going on you can send it in

18:49 be a way to work that into the show. I think Darren you already got three or four different new openings for uh for the show? Yes and of course we can work on always more is good, more choices yeah! I see Mike Riley has just been reactivated he's doing art now i mean come on man this is awesome it's thank you agenda nation. It's just so, so beautiful to see all of this happening. Yeah when the Duke of the South came looking for artists for those shadow boxes I'm like well you don't want me but you want Mike Riley and Roger Roundy and a few others... Right! You know they're not the AI junkies man they know how to- Mike Riley stuff is amazing

19:31 Yeah, thank you actually I'm just remembering now that I hit the bat signal but it didn't post it on X. So why don't you guys talk amongst yourselves and I'll do what I was supposed to do here? You gotta boost the toot! You got to let everybody know this show is live if you're not listening on a podcasting 2.0 app you are missing out because that way you get your notification when the show goes live which yeah you want to listen live Yeah, have you guys been following Trump's hair? That seems to be the biggest news of the moment. What is going on with Trump's hair? I saw it got bigger! It got bigger?! I didn't see any photos but I just saw something like its blown out or something...I don't know if he's looking to go

20:14 Maybe try out for the WNBA? Who knows. I think he needs a stronger grade of hairspray because it seems like it's blowing out of place a lot more easily, so that might be part of it. Well Larry you say you always could see a toupee is this real? Yes I can that is my superpower! I don't know if Adam knows that yet but I can spot a rug from Is Trump's real? Yes, no I do know this is a superpower. It's not quite as impressive as the vasectomy but it's an important skill to have! That was really really impressive i gotta say that. No kidding! The vasectomies spotting like what?! So did I recall that was like the underpinning of that was the reduced tea counts or something and so they didn't quite

20:58 comport themselves with as much masculinity is a unvisectomized guy would or what that What did he base that on? Oh the history was that vasectomy were done Back in the day, I don't know 1800s. I forget what century were performed as a youth making experience to make someone appear younger So you know kind of like but the Botox of the day right seems a little more painful But that was it was the Botox of the day make men want to look... even then, back in those 1700s and 1800's you wanted to look a little feminine. That was kind of sexy of the day Maybe that has been Billy Idol secret. Is Steve Stevens still playing with Billy? Oh my! is he playing? You know what

21:46 Riddle me this, why is that guy's name not up there with Hendrix and Clapton and Becks? It should absolutely be there. So I interviewed him back in the late 80s And he came into the studio because it might have been Headbangers Ball And this is you remember these days Larry back in the day like when even the VJ's got gold and platinum records Yeah, thanks for it. Thanks for helping son here something to hang on your wall and he came in and he gave me a His signature Steve Stevens a hammer guitar oh I still have it I still have its signed by sound by Steve Steve Stevens yeah that he was just a nice guy yeah

22:29 That's so New York, right? His New York accent is unbelievable. He literally walked down the street to the studio and had a guitar case here Adam Haydum these guys were all very very New York very New York love that about him and then there's if there's a classic guitar story Joe Satriani who I think is also just virtuoso guy he's so good you can look it up on YouTube There's two versions. There is a longer version and he... And he is going to give me guitar lessons He's gonna show me, now I'm not actually holding the guitar but he has the guitar and says okay Adam and this is... he does some... little stuff back and forth but that's no really what makes you great guitar player Here something you can practice Adam You've got make your faces So it was teaching him how to make his face

23:22 The right face to make when you hit this one, you go... You gotta pull your lips back like that. And you gotta close your eyes That's what makes a great guitar player right there. That's great stuff Yeah, you can have the sound it's not in the gear I mean Ted Nugent told a story about Eddie Van Halen where when he met him He's like how do you get that sound and he had he handed him his guitar? He's like. I played it. I sound like Ted Nugent still I don't know how he You know made those sounds it wasn't trickery It wasn't gear it was just pure talent and the way he played her Talents and tone man. That's what it is yes, and the tone comes in the hands Yes

24:03 You cannot fight for the rhythm guitarist on stage with Billy because I mean it was very good, but nobody cared He's getting paid to stand in the back and strum a few chords and Billy he did come in show business backing him up They were unbelievable these chicks. Oh my god. They were they were so fantastic It was really one of the best shows ever seen really really great Yeah, why are you still around? I mean that guy was just Was this the Westbury Music Fair? No, this was at the Mohegan Sun Hotel Casino. And I had to laugh like hell because a couple of times during the show

24:42 The hotel was located in a little dinky town called Oakesville, Connecticut Right and a couple of times he was doing songs and he would shoehorn in the words on kiss Phil Connecticut And so when we left they turned my wife I said I said I sit to her why the hell did he keep saying? I can spell Connecticut Yeah Hello Cleveland, and you miss exactly okay. Yeah So Logan five in the troll room is talking about the gold and platinum records I just need to say something about that In the early days You actually could take the gold or platinum record out of the case And you could play it how?

25:29 ever. You had to play it backwards because it was a gold or platinum plated version of I guess they call the mother so when you first right inverse yeah so, so if you literally had to play it backwards but they did play they actually didn't play later there was just app I mean I still mine still have Later I got the CD versions from Michael Jackson and Aerosmith, which is those are some of my...I like those because I can always you know connect the story to it. But have a lot of the old-school platinum and gold records and they all have a little cassette stuck to them

26:09 The right hand bottom corner, you know because it also sold on cassette back in the day and those of course over the years have You know come unglued and dropped and they're kind of loose in the case It's memorabilia is fun. If you play them forward would they reveal the masked satanic lyrics? I buried Paul Yeah, I was just assuming those were made up and they weren't actually the album. So it's good to know they actually took a copy of the album and made those awards. They did for awhile but it got old and they didn't do that anymore And then the whole industry changed and nobody buys music anymore. Well you still do right? You buy a lot of vinyl oh well the vinyl yeah now that's the...you know what's crazy um, you know how Spotify is in a very difficult position with podcasts because they are also owned by majority I mean it's public company but a lot of the insiders who own shares early on were

27:09 publishing companies and the record companies who own the rights to all this music, which is why artists really don't get paid very well because they don't own their publishing. SoundExchange came in and so there is some money but that whole system is screwy because they just put it into a big pot and then they divide it up by plays So the whole thing is corrupt and no good We were never on Spotify with the show because they had an early contract that said, first of all signing a contract with basically a podcast app. I'm like no, that's not gonna do that and then they'd put us on and you know they could play...

27:49 in front of our podcast. Like, no I don't want that so but I went through all kinds of hoops to get us taken off and we got finally got taken off then i guess it was like a year ago or something and we were talking about now I'll put us back on Spotify which of course couldn't happen because somewhere in their database said never import this feed because those guys are dicks you know you don't want them they got that undone but then uh... I

28:35 Just any music that was detecting something I know that we we have some songs that are technically completely legal because it's parody right of an existing song and it's within the context Of the shows who are not releasing it as a separate entity But the other day I got to and i'm like what is going on? What are they striking us off, you know you can appeal it. Yeah, i'm gonna click that link no whatever You should use a real podcast app um what's happening Is people who do end of show mixes are also submitting their Songs to Spotify for people to enjoy them. So now we're in a Spotify music database They see that we're playing that on our show violation you're out I would have thought it was sir Chris Wilson because he's done a few parodies that are, you know again songs That everybody would know but putting his spin on it which then I kind of understand getting clipped before but yeah not

29:33 Not AI's fault. I had to research and like, oh, I see what's happening but you know again if Spotify were doing the right thing then you know not just doing algorithmic detection we have it is completely within the fair use the clause of the copyright law to do a parody of an existing song within the context, you know not releasing it ourselves but within the context of an educational program which of course no agenda is. But we'll never get over that hurdle so just get a modern podcast app people I was once sort of spotified by John Dvorak Adam

30:14 This went back, I'm serious. This went back at the very height of the COVID thing. I sent you a couple end-of-show songs and this one was kind of... it was of course a parody of Teacher Children No AI, all my own guitar tracks vocals whatever and you dug it so much that somewhere maybe 40-50 minutes into it when you mentioned end of some show mixes You said and here's something he came in from from that Larry guy This is really cool. And you got maybe Maybe one and a half bars played and John goes echoes at the end of the show He really is buzzkill Wow Thank You John

30:53 I gotta dig that one up Larry, I completely forgot about that. It's amazing how people come up to me and say you remember that episode when? And and I just go blank... Of course! I got it tell you man I really don't remember this at all. Oh man, oh man. So anyway I appreciate you guys holding out in the Fort and uh... I look forward to joining on Thursday. I'll be fresh ready to do some media deconstruction with you The closure for me this weekend here has been that, you know of course I want to be—you know i'm still producing for you guys doing clips and bringing you information. And I always want to be a part of this show certainly on Thursdays but I do have a calling to do more with We Get To Do This With Pastor Jimmy. I'm just going to be honest

31:49 I'm 61, things happened to me a couple years ago so i am going to continue to build that up as well but uh... i'm more convinced than ever that no agenda nation will get through this will become healthier will become and believe even stronger and bigger and uh... i'd like the alike kind of Detroit that you guys have started to develop here and I we talked the other day and I encourage you to look at some of the people in Noah Gender Nation for maybe joining you on Sunday. Something is changing here, it feels good to me it feels like good things are happening. Like the old morning zoos but actually funny?

32:29 Oh God, thank you. Exactly and without the bull crap... What was it for a time there every single morning zoo which by the way morning radio guys 90% are overweight this is just yes that's very true yeah and it was the Nutra system if they'd all lead into this you know it's like today the podcasts have You know, if you're worried about the Muslims taking over Texas you might want to buy some gold. I mean this is every single podcast does this now and those guys would all be like well you know Ross...I was stood on the scale this morning and oh it's all water weight but you know i've been on the NutriSystem and

33:09 Fantastic for me none of these guys ever got under 300 pounds. Okay, it never ever ever worked so without all that lameness Without the joke guy You know without this without the the black guy who does sports It was also racist these morning zoos without the hot sounding news lady Who was never hot looking? Was that Ross you mentioned Ross Britain Ross Britton, yeah you know exactly him too! I know Ross very well and um...I used to write shtick for the Z when it first started with him. And I forget who his partner was? No kidding! Oh yeah this is going way back and uh... I won't tell you now but Ross then duped me into a job at WNEW AM

33:52 from which I was eventually fired by proxy by Sinatra. Wow! Tell that story another time, it's absolutely true. I believe it, I believe it. But Ross was a good guy but the Z morning's used to drive me nuts so... Is he still alive? I think he is you know I saw him like on Facebook couple years back and he was doing morning drive on I forget who that was it was still in New York Station Ross is good. Wow like them a lot Yeah, it was now they had mr.. Leonard do you remember mr.? Mr.. This guy had a super gig mr

34:29 and there was again a guy who was at least 300 pounds and four foot ten. And he had this voice, it was funny I mean had funny bits but he would call 15 stations a day but he would call them from the station he was visiting Mr. Leonard, it sounded like Mr. Leonard lived in New York he drove a lime green Pinto the guy lived in Philly I think and you know so we'd be for a week at Z100 and when he wasn't doing his little shtick he called these other 15 stations and the next week he'd be in San Diego or wherever...I mean that guy had an unbelievable gig just being this one character on all these radio stations back when

35:16 Radio stations were local. You know when you just had a local station, you had your local guys now It's like Elvis Duran in the morning good morning San Francisco Good Morning Dallas Good Morning Philadelphia Yeah become so homogenized and crappy that I'm glad that we have a podcast like ours Absolutely it's all jack FM accent on the job Amazing. This is the more you're gonna find out about Larry, I mean he's probably on the mobs hit list if you had Sinatra got him fired So talking about so last night we're taking an uber back from from Oakland and where it sitting in the back were tired and we hearing all these songs and Tina says I miss George Michael see I miss him too this you know

36:10 like one of his ballad songs and then another song comes on and I'm like oh this is um this is Linda Ronstadt with that black guy who had like the big mole above his eye. Peebo Bryson? No no Aaron Neville, so we're trying to figure out who was that guy's name and the driver says Aaron Neville! I said yeah man but you look at up there at the display says no this is my playlist and he has a little bit of an accent, so older guy. And so of course we're talking to him and he's like well you know I had a drink with Frank Sinatra when i was running the Stars restaurant

36:51 And he pulls up his phone, sure enough there he is him and Frank Sinatra having a drink in tuxedos. Now you can just see this guy, he's gotta be in the 70s driving an Uber telling everybody about the good old days with Frank. That's your future Larry! Thank You! Are you a good driver? Driving an uber talking about your days with Frank? I bet you got fired by Frank While podcasting live from the driver's seat. There you go Anyway guys, I'm gonna bow out about reaching the end of the energy I've got here I just want to thank everybody for all the emails The direct messages the text messages You've been wonderful can't wait to see you guys on 30 on Thursday and Darren and Larry love you guys We'll talk to you in a week take care of yourself look forward to it And thanks for that report

37:46 Adios, mofos. And such. I don't know how you follow that but... We're gonna try we'll do just fine what a pleasant interlude that was Yeah you got your Billy Idol story Got my Billy Idol story. Yeah, it was uh wow who knew who knew that would lead to all that what a glorious detour we took huh? And I've been on Adam since he mentioned that Steve Stevens guitar sitting in his studio i'm like you got to learn how to play He does and I was looking very close...I had like kissed the stage seats last night It was amazing And then, of course they had the big video screens flanking it. But he's got a whole signature deal with a Canadian guitar company I think called Godin or Go-DIN, whatever, G-O-D-I-N

38:31 And a couple of them are really oddballs. They've got open headstocks and nylon strings on them, wow! But everything that guy touches sounds great because he's great. I'm sure there is still money in getting guitar companies to make a signature model. It's sad that less and less people are actually playing instruments but... You really can't reproduce that when going out live, which is why a lot of these guys are in their 50s 60s 70s or some even in their 80s. I mean Willie Nelson out there and his 90's now playing it's like it's a dying breed that for hope I'm hoping it comes back because you can't replace it with and it's not just AI but you can't replace it with the electronic music and all this synthesized stuff

39:18 I have a Willie story if you want to. I mean, why not? Before we get into real news deconstruction... Yeah yeah i met him uh long time ago when i was fronting a country band back in the good old days and i think yeah adam mentioned westbury music fair which is a very small venue it's only a couple thousand people and there was a stage that revolved in a circle So there were no bad seats, none. And it was such a different world back then without psychos in every corner that my band – it was the Cadillac Cowboys and my partner – his name is Pontiac Pete And he goes, hey man let's go try to find Willie. Okay so we just you know why not? So we left the arena and walked around the side and there was Willie just standing by the tour bus hanging out. He was all alone walked right up introduced ourselves. He looks at me like another redhead that's what it was back then

40:11 So so but but let years I saw Willie again many years like many years later in LA and a little club 20 miles north of my house called And really was much obviously we were all much much older by then And he did his show like he was under sniper fire. I mean, he didn't even wait for the applause between songs. It must have been like a last minute thing because it wasn't announced. It was suddenly a last-minute thing and driving down Ventura Freeway and I see appearing tonight Willie Nelson. Well, I'm a Willie fan. I'd had known of that if there was advance notice but there wasn't so somebody must have dropped out. Willie was in the neighborhood they said do you want to gig? That's probably how it went down

40:51 And he was probably pushing 80 by then, you know? And he's not Billy Idol. He didn't quite look that good! So at the end of the show it's swarmed with chicks who are 21 to 30 leaping up on stage handing him sharpies and pulling down their tops so they can autograph their boobs And I'm looking in this and thinking if this guy wasn't a massive music star, and he even spoke to any of these girls at the check stand at the supermarket they dial 911. You know? This is the power of music and stardom. Yeah, learn how to play the guitar kids! Exactly exactly

41:35 Absolutely and Willie I've seen him in concert a few times and he could this is part of even Elvis later in his career where they would rip through a five-minute song in a minute flat you know it's yes some artists are little different live. Willie was good but you know, I get it when you got like 8000 hits you gotta hit as much as you can on a live show Now you're starting us with a depressing story out in Michigan? Somebody commented, I love how much Larry hates commies. That was one of the reviews that popped up on one of the podcasts. Well thank you! I take that as a great compliment and I hate them with no apologies either none whatsoever

42:20 Yeah, this must be that El Sayed guy right? Yes. Okay so he's going to speak about how glorious he is and how he's going to fix everything including Medicare and did you know Darren? Did you know the problem with Medicare is racism? Isn't everything isn't that the problem now racism? I guess but I didn't know it applied to Medicare but now we're about to find out how true that is One of the biggest challenges that we have when it comes to racial inequalities in health, which is the area of my expertise. It's what I studied and wrote my dissertation on is that we have a multi-class healthcare system so even if you have coverage on Medicaid, Medicaid reimburses at nearly half the rate as private health insurance So healthcare companies are like, I'm sorry but your paying half rate so you get discriminated against at the point of care

43:11 And too often in urban communities, because of structural racism because of the circumstances of segregation you end up having situations where you may have health insurance through Medicaid but you don't have healthcare. Because you can get your Medicaid accepted where you need to get care. There you have that right? Well New Wrinkle was uncovered he has a wife who is a psychiatrist her name is Sarah Jakuku I'm sorry, I mispronounced it. It's Jakaku. Jay U K A K U. And she runs a private practice in Ann Arbor called Mind Work Psychiatry and as I was reading this I thought I wish Darren had like a Theremin clip to put in there. You know mind work psychiatry? Anyway here is the kicker man this guy is beefing about

44:02 Oh, I knew you could do it man! Beautiful. The podfather provides all clips. So she opted out of Medicare in 2025. Let me back up a second... Their family income for last year was about $700 grand almost all of it hers so she's doing real well with the mind work psychiatry She opted out of Medicare in 2025 according to records reported by the Washington Free Beacon So she can't build a program and she's not listed as an eligible provider on any of the insurance plans that provide coverage for Medicare. She is exactly the type of physician or shrink that her husband

44:48 is deriding. So she's not taking Medicare or Medicaid patients? No, only for special people you know so then there's more it says Mindworks website notes that quote Dr. Jukaku is out of network for all insurance companies meaning patients must pay out-of-pocket for her services something quote black and brown folks who are low income as they'll say I'd put it are unlikely to be able to afford so just for the hell of it I went to the site and guess what I saw It says, this site is currently private if you're the owner or contributor logged in. You always know it's bad when the social media or website disappears. Yeah and I should probably throw into somebody's lap who knows what they're doing like you but i went to what's that thing? The Wayback Machine and several other clones of that saying maybe somebody got some pages on what it looked like before they walled it off but couldn't find a damn thing

45:46 That's it. It's that's it everything has been turned into It's racist. Yes, it is the medical system in this country is flawed I don't think anybody is going to argue that it is the perfect system that anybody's ever come up with no What I mean remember hearing you know guys like Rush Limbaugh talking about well? I don't really have insurance. I just have enough money that if anything goes wrong You know I can afford to pay for it So you've got that level of people And then you go all the way down to the lowest common denominator and yeah, there are things that aren't perfect but I really have yet to see any evidence that anything is going to be approved based upon the color of somebody's skin and disapproved for the reason of the color of their skin. It doesn't happen. People throw these kind of things out there it's why the left loves throwing it out because they know one

46:48 There are going to be some people that just believe it sure and then it's also going to be in the world now Which is the AI brain? That's exactly right. It's gonna pop up on chat GPT, you know that of course Yes, yes, it has to eventually at some point or not And as you pointed out last time this is why they absolute flood everything with their crap knowing if the seepage is gonna Be fast and thick into a I so It's just the way it's going to be. Yeah, there's no question about it. No, no, no. Now does the next clip go with that one or is that we've

47:28 That would be this is this is a different one if you You're talking about the Jason our day clip yeah, let's hop into that one then we can do okay? All right three by three in honor of JCD all right. Okay This is this is an interesting story before before I get to Jason. This is it. This is basically Britain Great Britain's answer to George Santos remember the Santos guy in New York the liar Compulsive wire that got a less nicely as a Republican Yes, very bad glasses Very bad glasses and so the guy had this litany of lies that were mind-blowing like he claimed He graduated from Baruch College and got an MBA from New York University

48:09 University, both said never heard of him. He said he worked at Goldman Sachs and Citicorp, they said never heard of him. He said he and his family owned 13 rental properties, it never happened. He said he was a volleyball star at Baruch but how could that happen? I guess they finally did! And then he established an animal charity that brought in a lot of yen for the Our four-legged friends right, but finally they caught up with him and interestingly enough when they said what what the hell are you doing? And his his answer was most people lie on their resumes He's not wrong he's not wrong so at the same time that you know this went on two or three years ago with with this guy with a

49:00 Come on brain work with Saturdays and Santos so then this guy our day was just hit the papers or the websites you should say and And he obviously was thinking, hold my beer with that one on. So this clip is one of his academic sycophants introducing him okay? When I heard this woman speaking and thinking when she's gonna drop the name at the end of her rap it's gotta be Jesus really listen to what she has to say. I'm Rajni Naidoo, I am Vice President for Community and Inclusion

49:38 a UNESCO Chair and Co-Director of the International Centre for Higher Education at the University of Varn. So it's a great, great pleasure to welcome Professor Jason Arday. Jason is Professor of Sociology of Education at the University of Glasgow Previously, he was Associate Professor in Sociology at Durham University and the Deputy Executive Dean for People and Culture. He is a visiting and honorary professor at many universities including Ohio State in the US, Durham in UK and Nelson Mandela University in South Africa

50:22 Jason also holds numerous trusteeships including at the Runnymede Trust which is the UK's leading race equality think tank. Jason is also a fellow of the RSA. Oh my god she keeps going on and on it's beyond belief yeah, yeah Is that all she had to say? There's another 20 seconds, but I know we've heard enough introduction. It's beyond and then she says he's like an it's a spectacular scholar about right so anyway So he just well I'm just thinking Larry We can change our intro to this show to be like an hour long And then that's less work. I like that That's a hell of an idea if you need long intros yeah Yeah

51:07 So anyway, Jason he actually like I said he made Santos look like an amateur. Here's just a quick rundown of the lies He told first he said that he was a start up star of they famous British documentary called 7up But the only problem is that he was born 21 years after the documentary was filmed Then he claimed he's autistic and nonverbal until the age of 11 other witnesses disproved that you like this one Did you know he ran 30 marathons in just 35 days? Oh Hilliard. Maybe he was thinking, that's a little tough to ... Other people are in those marathons. There could be like a registry or something for them? So then he followed up with I also ran 600 miles in six days on a treadmill because treadmills don't talk and they don't keep records right? Says he raised millions of pounds for various charities overcame a brain tumor while completing his PhD then they found out that there were hundreds of passages in his dissertation that were plagiarized right

52:09 So, he didn't dispute being a plagiarist. But what he did see, defended himself by saying that he had not received adequate supervision during his PhD given his autism and learning disabilities. Yeah. And it just goes on and on. But, the funny thing is just like Santos when they kind of held his feet to the fire he said well to be honest with you I thought you'd just believe me. We've seen it happen! Here's a big ironic kick in the ass to Simon & Schuster which is about to publish his book very soon August 11th that drops in the USA You Can't Believe This title

52:56 great and unfortunate things You can't make this up so this is the new world we're living in where information Misinformation is more prevalent, but this guy's like barely 40. Okay? He's an internet child He was you know raised it how how can he be that stupid I mean you can't do anything today without It being documented by someone in some way somewhere right well Unless you're planting the backstory. Now this was when people started pulling scams on the internet, they would create a website with fake bios and fake information so when people went to look it up they'd find them and be like oh it must be true yeah this has just been multiplied now by I don't know a million more? This guy's running for office like Santos or uh no no he's I think he's running for cover He's just trying to sell books

53:52 I mean, if you're going to pad your resume sometimes you need more than just a blurb from JCD on the book. You need a lot of blurbs that really come from nobody! And now it's time for 3x3 Experiment by JCD Comparing stories from ABC CBS and NBC The never ending three by three. Yeah, John C. Dvorak created it but I think we can use it every now and then because it's a valuable way to look at what the media is saying about certain topics in this case Larry It is the Trump ballroom and uh we'll start with the trump friendly Fox News

54:42 Hi Shannon, a lot of updates on this story. Two of the panel's three judges ruled today that President Trump does not have the unilateral authority to knock down and payers paid for until now. The president says he will appeal to the Supreme Court adding, Now Shannon the ballroom is just one of several ways the president is trying to leave a lasting mark on the nation's capital

55:37 The 250-foot arches proposing between the Lincoln Memorial and Arlington National Cemetery has yet to take shape, but a recent National Park Service assessment points out the structure would change the views of dozens of historic sites. Like the ballroom there's a lawsuit aimed at blocking the arches President Trump is also having a new helipad built for Marine One to land on the South Lawn and there are reports he's already changed his mind a few times on that Shannon after construction has already gotten underway. No, Donald Trump would never change his mind about anything would he? Never! Put it there no put it there no put it there no it'd look better there but they are pointing out one thing that starting to come out with this story which is there seems to be a much different take

56:24 legally based upon if what's being built is above ground or underground. The courts are seemingly pointing now like he can do whatever he wants underground because it's security, blah, blah, blah. Oh okay The above ground is where the real problem comes into. Some people don't want the ballroom and the report here is correct, there is no other point in history where this kind of massive change was enacted by the president without having some congressional approval but the difference is and this is where the courts are gonna come in because I'm not a lawyer like Rob the constitutional lawyer I have no idea

57:07 if it was because Trump needed the funding from Congress to build it, and since he got the funding privately he has the ability or if he still needs somebody else's approval even if he's got the money. But this of course same story this is the very Trump unfriendly ABC. President Trump's White House ballroom project is hitting its biggest roadblock yet. A federal appeals court today issuing a new ruling blocking further construction of that $400 million dollar ballroom saying only Congress has the authority to approve changes to the historic structure or Stephen Portnoy has been tracking this for us and, Stephen I want to start with this what is the essence of the judge's ruling here?

57:53 What is the essence? Oh yeah, that's kind of like what do you make of it isn't it. It's very similar Yeah wasn't the original price of that 200 million Darren did they double that keeps going up just like he keeps moving the helipad I can see but if I don't know how much money He's got he's like hey people keep giving me money so I'm gonna build a bigger pool. I don't know You know, basically this two to one ruling from the D.C. Circuit Appeals Court was that the White House does not belong to the president that he is not the owner of the executive mansion and he's merely a tenant in this 2-1 ruling The Obama and Biden appointed judges who ruled against the president said that quote whether or not a massive ballroom should be constructed is for Congress to decide And it's not a matter for executive self help

58:40 And so the bottom line is, the judges are saying that but for security or safety related things. The injunction that was imposed earlier this year by a lower court has to go into effect now the ruling itself is paused for two weeks and that's to allow For the president if he decides to do it to appeal which he said today He's going to do well in Steven where does that leave this construction project? I Well, it's important to point out a couple of things. One is I mentioned the appeals court itself put in place a two week stay, a pause to allow for the president to appeal which he says on social media today this unjust decision must be overturned by the Supreme Court in its entirety. The president says going to immediately appeal it to the Supreme Court there's another step you could take if you wanted to and that's called en banc review which would have all the judges of the DC... Stop! What's up with? En banc!

59:36 What? Spell that for me, please. Nbonk! I think it would just be n with a bonk which is probably... B-O-N-K really?! I think. If that's not a show title then I don't know what is. That's it. Nbonk! Nbonk! It's when all the judges get together but you know they're not going to be friendly towards him either so it was very interesting to see how this stuff plays out and Trump with his social media stuff I think a lot of people even their back The president would like him to tone things down a little. If you're going to the Supreme Court, You don't have to say like hey the obviously unjust it's just say I believe this was an unjust. Yeah. And then if they rule against you that is where people are like he doesn't even know what he's doing He has dementia! Of course...I have a solution for him though

1:00:27 Do fix really all of the problems all of well of those almost ballroom Problems become a dictator to do is bring in the designers that guys the brains behind Those very successful toys transformers, right? So you so make it a transformer Ballroom You push a button and all of a sudden it turns into a heavily armed bunker now what now what's your problem? Oh It's like they need, yeah they need more. I mean especially at this point when you have state actors from Iran and others i'm sure that have hits out on the president...I mean there's never been a more dubious time for, I guess is right dangerous time for somebody in his position and I understand why they want a place where they can do things like

1:01:15 A ballroom there makes sense being the fact that Trump often goes in DC to things like the media dinner that he had him rescheduled because of the assassination attempt. Yeah, at that hotel absolutely yeah Because security obviously was a little bit subpar so I mean this would be nice to have that in-house and this is all I mean, i know this is a surprise to everybody listening right now that's a producer of No Agenda. This is just political it really isn't anything else. Of course!

1:01:51 A ballroom is going to be there if a Democrat wins. You'll be pissed, oh wow we've got this nice ballroom to go and use! Yeah but you know commies don't like dancing. Well Bernie did I thought he went to Russia on his honeymoon so he could... But Bernie could dance? Wow I want to see that. Probably 70 80 90 years ago however when did Bernie get married Long time, long time. Long time. Appeal it to the Supreme Court there's another step he could take if he wanted to and that's called en banc review which would have all the judges of the DC circuit looking at it but the president is going to go right to the Supreme Court and he also pointed to what his own appointee Naomi Rao said in her dissenting opinion today which is that the National Trust for Historic Preservation which brought this lawsuit doesn't have standing to sue That was an argument that the administration has been making

1:02:38 throughout this litigation, but was rejected by the majority which said that Congress has to vote to authorize this project. Which the president has not really directly asked lawmakers to do Yeah, which is a very good point as well. I hate to agree with ABC but there's been a lot of things under this second Trump term that the easy answer seems to have been go and get it passed in Congress you control the house You control the Senate right? Why not just go that route then nobody can complain Well and Steven i'm also curious what does this mean for the president's bunker That was supposed to go under that ballroom

1:03:21 This really gets at the security and safety exception. And, you know, Judge Richard Leon of the District Court who looked at this earlier this year said that the president is making an argument that this ballroom is necessary for national security The president demolished the east wing of the White House that historically had a bunker underneath it, that dated back to World War II FDR's time. Well now the argument is that bunker needs to be replaced and so the judge earlier this year said all right we will allow you to continue building those parts of this project that are necessary to the security and safety of the President. The appeals court judges today affirmed that

1:03:59 One of the things that Naomi Rao, the dissenting judge said in her opinion is the idea that now the district court judge, Judge Richard Leon is going to be required to review various parts of the plan and discern for himself what is or is not security related which essentially would have the court micromanaging those decisions. That's what Naomi Rao believes and the administration I think believes it's gonna have a strong argument in that respect going to the Supreme Court on it So it seems if you really finally go through all of these reports, and there's still one from CBS. You're going to understand that the Trump people are just gonna say... And they pointed out in the ABC report the bunker is World War II or previous. Yeah I'm guessing it needed some upgrading? I would think but for this reason also It's a proven fact that several members of FDRs cabinet were Soviet spies

1:04:53 Who knows what kind of crap they packed into the floorboards there? Drew I would hope they have swept forward since then but you never know. You'd ever know what was built in Yeah, you know that is part of the issue I mean that everybody went nuts when Donald Trump wanted to bring that new Jumbo jet Air Force One home and no No we got a look at it first We gotta sweep it! Perfect those sweeping systems are they ever miss stuff. You know they have about them They have to write nothing's nothing perfect as technology gets better As everything is wired for the internet it becomes much easier

1:05:35 Because you used to look for radio waves, if somebody was bugging your office. Well that audio had to get out somehow unless there was just a recorder locally and that's probably gonna get found because recorders aren't at that point anyway were not super small but now how small cameras and microphones are in connecting them into the internet To go out of whatever building you're in, not that hard to do. No even I could do it Yeah which is why would people going into like Airbnbs now? You gotta sweep, you gotta look because Oh oh you know what a couple years ago I was supposed to connect with some friends somewhere forget where the hell it was and so for my first time My wife always does the travel stuff but I wasn't gonna burden her with my stuff

1:06:26 And I started looking for Airbnbs. I was astonished at how many people in reviews said, I'll never stay in this dump again it was loaded with cameras and not on the outside on the inside. I thought well really that's awful. In most jurisdictions that's legal if they're not doing audio. It's just there are security cameras Larry! Yeah that's right for your safety They're all in the bathroom and changing rooms That's for no apparent reason But here is CBS, which surprisingly enough was fairly straightforward with the story. Yes let's talk about the job site the ballroom situation here behind us The president says he will appeal this three judge appeals court decision to the Supreme Court arguing that there is a national security imperative now to finish it but what he forgot to mention is that the court order today said that the national security work underground can in fact continue It's everything from ground up

1:07:24 that they're worried about, at least in the case of these three judges with the appeals court. Because they say as a district court had previously The president didn't have the authority to do this on his own Congress has full oversight of federal property and how money is spent on it This is, in essence remember, a national park and Congress oversees the National Park Service. So, President not happy about that reiterating that it is not just a 90 thousand square foot ballroom but there's going to be all these other national security military medical facilities underneath it needs to be finished and anyone who suggests otherwise is un-American So I don't know, is this the new regime under CBS? It's got to be the Ellison influence. Has to be. They actually get something that was just news! This is how news reports reminded me of growing up where it was just the news. Right Not how you should think not oh no Trump good or Trump bad when we heard a lot of Trump good in The Fox We heard a lot of Trump bad and the ABC Yeah But this is why JCD invented it And now its time for 3x3

1:08:26 Experiment by JCD Comparing stories from ABC, CBS and NBC The never-ending three by three Which really is the heart of the media deconstruction. Hey here's a story Here's how it's being told Three different ways And why do you think that is? If once you start thinking critically kids You're much better off. When did John first record that jingle? Well he didn't record the jingle but this is somebody This thing has been around for as long as I can remember although it could be the Mandela effect Yeah, because it's really...it should be the 4x4 That's why was like okay there was a choice for me to do

1:09:13 CBS or CNN and I'm like well is see it this is the three main and of course there's PBS now, and then you've got the The cable news which are on a different level just from the fact that Cable News doesn't have to pay The United States to use the airwaves where ABC CBS NBC does But I'm not saying you can't do a three by three with the others. Yeah, it still works but I would think the four by four being the fourth would be Fox. No that's really the network I guess. Well Fox News and Fox The Regular are usually within shooting distance of each other so they're broadcast and you've got Fox The Network which is over-the-broadcast then you have Fox News which is solely

1:10:03 Over cable and then of course a lot of people don't know news nation is owned By the people that run the CW which is WGN, and I'm that's split a bunch of ways as well But for regular news. I mean there's at least interesting. You've got the Cuomo guy there, but you've got he still doing it really Leland Vittert and They have a decent lineup which they're trying to to bring people from both sides on, which is usually the most fun you can have in news. Having an actual argument between two different people with different opinions which now you don't see... Nothing annoys me more than turning on something like CNN and having four people in the little, usually a host of then four people in the little boxes and they're all saying the same thing it's like couldn't get one person that disagreed?

1:11:00 I agree. It's not fun, nobody wants to hear agreement all the time! No it's not fun and its not pleasant you know that's why I rarely watch any of them but I do enjoy the Fox thing because it seems like its always hot looking women with great legs and high heels sitting in chairs where they have to cross their legs yeah CNN is like no it's depressing really it's some academic crap Yeah, Fox figured out that one a long time ago. If we're going to have anybody doing news attractive women will bring the demographic that we want in. And I think Brooke Baldwin is at the front of that class and she was it a book she came out with an article but recently read something she had said about how much he loves sex and different kinds and I thought wow you know... Welcome to Fox News! Exactly thank You Brooke hmm

1:11:52 Now you've got a clip here on Sunday at church? I mean is this the idea of ... Yeah, because it's a Sunday show and I kind of stumbled on this one. Insanity crosses every boundary and every vocation, every profession. You never know where you'll encounter them And what made me think of this is years ago, before my wife and I were married we both had apartments on the west side of New York. We went to this church if you get the name of it and god damn Darren it was pre-smartphone days. I think we were like still on pagers back then unfortunately because we went to this mass like a regular Sunday Mass walk in pretty good sized crowd there several hundred people

1:12:38 And this priest, who was very gay started his sermon. And the sermon was Jesus is my lover and over the course of his homily which probably ran I don't know seven or ten minutes or something like that he kind of never got graphic but he described sort of things you wanted to do with the king of kings This is a Catholic church in New York? This was a Roman Catholic Church And I remember thinking, oh my. Oh yeah and I remember back in my apartment I had a VHS camera and I thought could I possibly sprint back there fast enough to grab that cinder block lug it back here and get some of this because it was absolute gold? And I remember looking around with my wife then just my girlfriend the jaws on people their jaws were on their chests It was like a comedy bit

1:13:31 It was beyond belief. So anyway, you came up with the term the corporate God providers did they? I never went back to that church it was a really bizarre experience And then I stumbled on this. This is a guy from somewhere in Oklahoma, his name like Preacher Smidridge or something, I don't know and listen to what this cat's doing when he starts speaking no that just wanted to give you the visual setup He starts at the podium up in the altar and it's like I think it says Baptist or it's not a Catholic Church

1:14:11 And he's obviously pretty ticked off at the start of it. And he very quickly steps down into the audience and gets right in people's faces as he says, so it's not like I want you to know, he's not like talking about people in ether there they're close. They're right there close. Yeah. Don't go to sleep while I'm talking Hey, hey, don't don't don't you lay your head but I'm important. Now you might do your English teacher that away, but I'm not teaching English. I'm teaching eternal life here! I love you... You know I love you and have I convinced you I love you? Yeah, yeah, you better nod your head yes or come on put it out there all right? You stay awake and listen to me. You say well he may never come back well He ain't here now And where have you been Mr.. Underwood? And I noticed on the calendar I'm supposed to marry ya'll what makes you think I'd marry you?! You're one of the sorriest church members I had Wow, you're not worth 15 cents

1:15:11 And you want me to marry you to her? And you wanna marry him and he don't even know where he belongs, and you don't even know where YOU belong. Now let me tell y'all everybody here how much I love these kids Do you know why I love you sir? Stand up big boy! Big boy! You know why I love you? Alright Yeah, he gives him a bear hug. Wow this is all different kind of church. Isn't that crazy? You're not worth 15 cents come here let me show you how much I love you. Wow at least give this guy seems like he is worthy of at least holding your attention while speaking because I've had enough in churches where everything is just so boring that you know you're trying not to fall asleep but yes

1:15:56 Sometimes that's just impossible. Sometimes nature takes over and there is absolutely nothing you can do Exactly, so you just sit back and enjoy the ride I gotta tell ya when they get he made the guy stand up So we could hug him And i'm thinking what hows this gonna end? I thought maybe maybe there might be a right cross to his jaw or something Well I could see that yeah Sure of course you could You're living in a slightly different world right now Yeah As you said, people can snap at any given minute. You never know what you're going to deal with. That is the insanity of all this. So how do I get to the Mike Rowe clip? Because I like this guy. He is good he's kind of spells out in his opinion it's a very valid opinion what he thinks is wrong with Gen Z and millennial people but there

1:16:51 There's an answer, there is another side to his argument which I'll give after the clip. The question doesn't start with what are they doing? It starts with what aren't they doing? They're not volunteering at their local church, they're not in a Kiwanis club, they're not checking out the Rotarians or Lions Club, they're not in Boy Scouts or Skills USA, and they're not contributing anything in their community What are they doing? On average, they're spending between 2,000 and 2,100 hours a year on their screen. It is

1:17:27 Just we just haven't seen the like of it before How were they able to survive that's I don't I can't paint with too broad a brush Maybe some of them are trust fund kids. Maybe some have enough A lot of it is money from other generations Sure, you know, they just hate our generation except when we give them money that's always okay Yeah, it's always okay when you get daddy's money then the boomers aren't so bad Right? Yeah So, he's not wrong. I mean if you think about it that's roughly around 35 hours a week which is really kind of full-time job with no paycheck Right? Yes. Yeah, it's beyond belief so then there was a story that I tripped over that is kind of the other side of that and maybe next time we'll ask Adam didn't Adam for awhile he did put his smartphone aside and was using like a flip phone or yeah I think he still uses that as main phone and i saw an article in one of

1:18:27 the tech publications, I don't remember if it was Wired or The Verge. One of those there's like four different companies now that are making dumbed down phones and two or three were flipped Yeah, well there's what the story says. There was a woman who interviewed this woman named Kendall something and she remembers the moment she swapped her smartphone for flip phone She said quote For me the second that my iPhone was gone it was just like heaven on earth She is 23 year old Washington DC resident This is with CBS News And it says she's among a growing number of young people. Okay, I don't like my smartphone. I was thinking of doing what Adam did. Young people are ditching their smartphones in favor of stripped down dumb phones in an effort to unplug from social media etc., etc.. Some feel nostalgic for an era they never knew before the advent of mobile devices." So then what Mike said is buttressed by the American Psychological Association which showed that US teens spending nearly five hours a day on social media

1:19:28 Hill. And yeah, you're right, this chick got her flip phone from Dumb.co? Have you heard of that one? It's a good name! Isn't that good? Dumb.co is a startup that sells devices loaded with practical tools like Uber Maps and Spotify but no social media. And Dumb.co says it has more than 5,000 active users ... now this deserves fanfare ... its typical customer is a 24-year old woman. How about They really want to be forced to be off social media because you know, you don't have to install the app. That's true that's very true but I guess it'd be easier when people like you know cause then you would have your friends pressuring you like why aren't you on here? I don't know my phone it won't...it doesn't work

1:20:14 Because you can't just, you can take it off on your own and these some of these phones will allow you to have the messaging apps. So if you want to use something like Signal or Telegram they'll allow that but then they don't allow although you could probably hack it I mean all these things are hackable but allegedly don't allow Facebook and Instagram and all of the social media because the social media is where people start going down those rabbit holes that are not beneficial in its own. I mean, again, we're the old guys, we're the boomers. When we were kids, we used to hop on our bike and go to a friend's house without even calling first, knock on the door and be like hey is Jimmy home? And if not you'd go further down the street and be like hey Jack home? You know what I mean this is looking for something to do or you went to the park or wherever people hung out

1:21:08 The fact that kids just sit at home in their air-conditioned house and play on their smartphone without talking to another human being while possibly being, you know groomed by somebody in another country. It's a very strange world but with that said I think it's very scary what's going on with what some of these states are doing there is a new meta thing that came out, not a new thing. A new judgment against META. Oh how much money? This time another $567 million dollars That's a pretty big number! I mean for META though... Yeah you're right what am i saying But in honor of JCD it's an NTD clip and like I've never pulled an NTD clip before I'd never even run across one so I figured once I saw this there was a sign

1:22:04 New legal pressures mounting on Meta over the impact of social media on children. A New Mexico judge ordering the company to pay $567 million in overhaul safety features on Facebook and Instagram for young users in the state The judge ruled Meta's platforms contributed to harms to children's mental health, and failed adequately protect minors from sexual exploitation The order includes limits on teens' use of Facebook and Instagram, tighter controls on contact between adults and minors, and new safeguards for AI chatbots. New Mexico ruling comes on top of the $375 million in civil penalties a jury ordered against Meta earlier this year

1:22:47 bringing the total amount the company is responsible for in the case to $942 million, a small fraction of its annual profit which was about 60 billion dollars in 2025. Meta says it plans to appeal maintaining its confidence in its record of protecting teens online and has been working on identifying and removing harmful content from its platforms Now the case is being closely watched as states and school districts across the country pursue similar lawsuits against social media companies. Yes, one somebody needs to nationalize so the individual states can't this is never going to bring anything good And they're ignoring the fact that the internet is inherently dangerous. It's like a car yes, yes If you're gonna put your child behind the wheel of a car there's a chance They're going to get into an accident and get injured or worse

1:23:42 The only way to keep your child from getting into a car accident with them driving is to keep them from driving the car until they are ready. To do so this concept that you know, we're gonna have Facebook or any of these social media companies being in charge of how many hours your kid sits on the Internet wouldn't it be better if that was the parent doing that? Sure, but aren't they doing that already in China? Yes. Well then this is the rub that a lot of the people in the United States are missing Which is it's always you know It's for the safety its always for the children But if the end result is always

1:24:26 Oh, for this to work every adult that's on the internet. Well you're gonna need an ID and you're gonna have to sign on and we're gonna have to know everything you do but this is a clip from the Attorney General in New Mexico of course say... I'm sorry i shouldn't say of course in this case because there are some Republican attorney generals going after the exact same thing so this shouldn't be politicized except to say that idiots. Oh yeah so I just wanted to give you a quick update on a major victory Major Victory! We scored against social media and specifically in our case against Metta yesterday a judge ordered that Metta pay five hundred and sixty seven million dollars for the public nuisance and the harm that they've caused to our kids That's on top of the public nuisance this is one of the ways they're going after him,

1:25:21 Like you having an old Chevy that causes too much noise after 8 p.m.. Driving down there It's a public nuisance Larry, that's work these meta and it its infuriating the complete lack of understanding and You know, and again it's major $567 million. It's like what does Meta make in an hour? Yeah 60 billion a year that's not major to them No no it's a rounding error if you're lucky So put on your soothsayers cap there Darren where do you see this crash because you've been yelling about this for years rightly so

1:26:02 Are they going to achieve their goal? Are we all gonna be having to do selfies and sit there with our driver's license or whatever the hell it is so that we can get online, what do you think? How is this gonna go?" If they get what they want, it is going to be China. Which for you to log onto the internet, you are going to have to prove who you are with an ID, probably gonna have to use your smartphone to take a photo of your driver's license with, you know and here in the US on the back. You've got the barcodes and you're gonna have to take a picture of that to prove that you are who you say you are while you're logged in which then again now if you end up being one of those parents it's like I don't care if my kid uses 8000 hours I'll just log them in as me

1:26:46 It's never a penalty for the parents. It's always going after money from the social media, so this is not about protecting your children. This is only about taking more money from the social media here in Illinois. The corrupt politicians JB Pritzker and Mayor Brandon Johnson of Chicago they put laws into place that said well for every person using your social media over 100 thousand the city owes you a 50 cent or the state, you owe us a 50 cent tax. So the State of Illinois is like well if we got 20 million people on X well then you owe us 10 million a month in attacks for us to allow your social media to be... It's always about the money this is just a different way of going at the money because they're going to make rules

1:27:41 and regulations that parents should be in charge of. that the penalty is only these social media companies pay more. But this guy goes on here... ...to our kids, that's on top of the $375 million judgment we got earlier in the year That's almost a billion dollars just for the state of New Mexico To put that into context if the rest of the country got the kind of judgment that we got yesterday it'd be 150 billion dollars to Meta Can you hear? It's like a wet dream to this guy If ONLY every other state New Mexico, I would characterize that as it's the Massachusetts of the Southwest.

1:28:20 And it wasn't always that way. It used to be a banging state, it still has the most beautiful sunsets, geography mountains, its absolutely gorgeous but its been overrun by commie creeps and its become kind of a depressing place outside of the natural topography. Its sad. Yeah they sit there and say social media is too popular lets see if we can monetize it! Yeah of course Where the real answer is keep the children off devices until their of age whatever that is More importantly, however now they are ordered to change how they do business in our state. This is a fight that's worth having this is something that I am passionate about and we're not done yet We have a lot more left to do specifically updating our laws or consumer protection laws on our social media laws here in New Mexico To make it absolutely clear you can endanger our kids

1:29:16 You can't allow exploitation and you've got to do a whole lot more to protect families and people, especially the most vulnerable members of our community. This is an important victory for us first in the nation first in the world we got a lot more left to do so stay tuned Yeah, the amount of rah-rah is kind of disturbing. And that phrase more work to do that's always a commie phrase have you noticed that? In The Most Vulnerable it's always oh it's always yeah it's the people that are having the biggest no because you know rich white kids they're not having their children exploited on the internet now it's always The Most Vulnerable I don't buy it! Don't buy it for a minute

1:29:59 And parenting just has to be parenting. I mean, the concept is insane because anybody with logic can sit in a room even people that are not dudes named Ben, people who don't have any concept of how any of these systems work you would understand that well if a bunch of people are communicating online you're not gonna be able separate them into different categories. Because if you're like, well no only people that are signed up as children under the age of 16 can talk in this group because yeah no adult is gonna figure out how to sign up as...

1:30:39 Especially when kids in the United States, you don't have an ID until you're getting your driver's license. Maybe I guess you have a social security card but... Well not in California if you want to get medical attention You have an id at 12 and your parents can't look at it Dude! And I've gotten multiple boots on the ground from your clip which I was like this cant even be real in California It's real. It is more than real, it's happening in Illinois as well because California and Illinois are kind of like mirrors when it comes to the law. Oh yeah And parents saying I cannot get my child's medical records without their approval at 12 years old and you walk into the doctors office

1:31:23 They don't go well. Do you you know did you do want your parent to be here with you? It's like no the doctor You don't get that choice mm-hmm look sorry, but this is the world we live in Well, this is this is the commie world that we live and this is commie canon And it goes back along I mean it goes back a long long way and if you think about it Hillary wrote a very successful book called It Takes A Village, and that's exactly what it is. It's like hey mom and dad you don't matter the village is going to raise your kid. Really? Well try calling the village when your kids projectile vomiting at 3am they don't pick up. No! You know its complete crap it's the state ruling everything and Gavin Newsom in all those dirt bags in California man they need to be put on a rocket then fired into the sun really

1:32:13 Because they're just raw evil, evil people. Really. But I mean...I know! We go back to it a lot, but this is literally what the socialist and communist regimes did. They go after the children! Oh always. They indoctrinate the children and this was because then your children start coming home like oh yes mom and dad you're problematic your way of thinking so I told...I told Governor Newsom what you were thinking of doing homeschooling me haha they're taking me away yeah gonna put me in a nice camp somewhere This is why you need people to stand up and make their voices heard. One guy that did that, our buddy Scott Libido anybody that's been listening to Planet Rage has heard Scott's voice more than once and I know

1:33:03 Wish we had bing it. I oh like we do for this show for Planet raids because you could do a search for anything that Adam and John have talked about over the years Yeah, but I know you and I on a few Occasions while watching one of Scott's video said this guy is close to our heart attack man if he doesn't We did that several times You are correct And then he had one because I mean When we were doing Planet Rage, which is kind of like no agenda with more swearing and playing up the anger bit I mean We're still mad about this stuff. But it's sure playing it up for the entertainment value

1:33:42 I mean overall, when you and I stop doing the show at the end of that period of day we go off and have fun. Always. We listen to music and enjoy what were doing Scott has been pissed off for a long time You know I had kind of like an epiphany just before i sent you this clip about Scott The interesting thing about him, he's definitely a right-winger. His head is in the right place. I love his salty language. He reminds me more of Sinatra speaking wise than anybody I've ever heard. Yes yes absolutely and Scott unlike most right wingers certainly myself included i think i'm kind of typical because for the most part actually never voted until they had kids that's only time I started caring but I knew was going on

1:34:38 But still, what do we want to do? Well you know it's like life is good I'm gonna go see Billy Idol and then maybe I'll go the beach and play with Moose for a while. Politics is not the focal point of my existence but for most lefties like Bernie, like Newscombe, like AOC It is a religion they are ideologues it never leaves their minds And Scott, in that way, he kind of operates like they do. Because he never unwound I think. He seemed like he was always ready for combat and finally caught up with his aorta I guess. I think it had double bite but whatever something very serious you know. But he's interesting guy.

1:35:23 And I do want to point out to people Larry is not like a northern exposure out in the woods kind of guy Moose is a very little white puppy Yes, mooses 13 pounds. He's more like a bull of her deer You know he just wants to hang around and eat escargot and drink fine wine People were imagining a much different thing when you're like I go out I play with moose Oh No That was a lap dog, 100%. And he brings the ladies in. That's the only reason to get a cute little white dog. He does. Is there any other setup on this libido clip? Or do we just jump in? No it's well what Scott is like I said so hardcore Darren that I think you had his cardiac episode like four days ago

1:36:09 And then he, within I think the first or second day. He had a video of himself in his hospital bed and he's got you know IVs going into him and bandages it was very serious stuff but he did a video telling me that I'm not done, I'm still in stay with me, I'm getting out here very soon...I mean he is a force of nature there's no question about that And then this clip really demonstrates that because the guy's arranging things from his hospital bed. He's got his own air force, listen to this clip. It's like he literally can't even slow down for a minute is it? No! Scott Labato organized a protest of America's artists against Zoran Mandani and they booed him off

1:36:53 Scott had a confrontation, actually had a heart attack and almost died. But today we're just getting this video in first here on Newsmax. Scott Labado apparently charted a plane from his hospital bed and he's flying this banner over New York City with a direct message to Zoran Mondani. And the guy was almost dead, so back from the grave you see this flying up and down New York City. This is actually a live view right now first on Newsmax. Mondani stay away from ground zero! And I don't think it could be any more clear than that shocked a guy who just had open heart surgery

1:37:35 took the time but I guess he wants Mondani to know that the booing's not gonna stop and New York City is getting a clear message from Staten Islanders led by Scott Libeto. Pretty cool, right? Yeah that's the commitment to The Craft! Exactly...I mean exactly That guy is a true believer and wow I salute him And I saw the clip, Ma'am Donnie was booed off stage I think it was mainly by a police audience in New York Yeah, I guess it was. Um...I'm sure if he had his homies there they'd have drowned out the police because he's very popular with them And then Elizabeth Warren was booed for saying something Oh good! Maybe people are waking up a little bit more? Maybe You know like she made a comment somewhere and she was sitting on a panel cause she was sitting there with the little microphone and her name in front of her

1:38:28 And she actually said that she's been tough on like the border and people just started laughing. Oh my god! You can't make this stuff up it's like I don't know if these people are delusional or what, but you are not tough on the border madam uh I mean you're welcome to your point of view if you want open borders but this is the where people really start, uh, You know jumping into that dimension B. Maybe she wants people to think now that she's been tough on the borders and the AI She said she was tough on the borders Yeah It's just literal insanity. And people always complain when they're hearing this kind of stuff, and like you just said you lean right wing it's like I lean right wing but i will tell ya that the Republicans are not perfect and there are things that are going wrong and it doesn't affect the ability to understand the crap that you're being fed yeah if I could find

1:39:28 I would bring you all of the right wing dribble that is meeting the level of the left, but I can't. So I mean, I will challenge any of those people that are like, ah no! All these... The right wing does the same thing? Well send in those clips. I would love to see them that are the equivalent of Donald Trump can't even make a complete sentence and they cut to the video of the guy doing Shakespeare and it's like That's not the result. You might get one of those from Thune and Murkowski, but yeah... And I gotta know what this next clip you got here is about sunscreen and the COVID vax? Is this like literally second half of show kind of things or...? Yeah i don't know. Again, I tripped over this one

1:40:19 It's, who is that congressman? You'll recognize his voice. The guy's name he's very articulate smooth but he said hey just play the clip you'll hear it Have I been lied to as a Florida man about sunscreen protecting me from cancer Yes, it appears we've all been lied to. Unfortunately this massive study of over 470 000 people confirms it. It's very worrisome that when they compared sunscreen users to non-sunscreen users the sunscreen users faced increased risks of all the major skin cancers, melanoma squamous cell carcinoma and basal cell carcinoma. So all of these cancers were up but the most worrisome finding was that invasive melanoma was 300% higher risk in the sunscreen users they accounted for skin color time spent outdoors and many other things sex age

1:41:16 and they still found thes of the cancer. So when yo time, you're blocking your to synthesize vitamin D wha defense so you do not wan A JAMA study just came out active ingredients in the get into your circulation. They get into your body above FDA regulatory limits if you really have to use it, If you'll be out in the sun for six hours midsummer day You still want to use something I would use zinc based sunscreen not oxybenzone none of those hormone disrupting Wow yeah how about that? Matt Gates was interviewing this guy

1:41:57 And, you know there was some companion verbiage to it, Aaron. It said that the incidence of melanoma has just skyrocketed and it was almost unheard of back in the 1930's or 40's whatever and they ... There is further evidence they had that a lot of this is not just linked dangerous gunk that might be in the stuff we spray on our faces and arms and shoulders, but it's diet-related. And all the crap that we eat, processed foods somehow reduces our resistance to it. It said people who were going more in the vein of heavy carnivores of properly raised beef – people who used to get terribly sunburned will switch to a diet of beef – I don't know if this is true but it's

1:42:45 and go out, and they'll get a color but they won't scald and blister and peel the way they did back when they were on the crappy diet. So there eat more steak than hamburger. This is The Texas Beef Initiative sponsored by... There it is! Everybody likes it, well not everybody but a lot of people do and it makes sense that your diet would have an effect. I mean vitamin D is one of the main things when you go to the doctor and they do the blood test like you either got enough or don't if you don't know you gotta supplement it But the dangerous chemicals in all of this it's like diet soda, so you read the chemical list. You know I hate you really just drink water Yeah exactly yeah, what stuff so bad? I could I could never ever get past the aftertaste yeah It's Otis never the aspartame or the second what was the saccharin was the worst one at first

1:43:41 But they never taste just like, oh no it tastes just like regular soda. Which is horrible for you as well but you know what the sugar is less of a problem if well back in the days when you actually had natural cane sugar in your soda rather than the high fructose corn syrup. They cut the corners and try to make more money on every product that they put out there Sure. Do they sell Mexican Coke in Chicago? Yeah, when we used to go to Costco would get the 18 pack or whatever it was and then you kind of just had to cut back because it's just so good but in the summer there's nothing like

1:44:19 a bottle, glass bottle of Mexican Coke. Real cane sugar. And the taste is astonishingly different than the other crap. Yes you can tell I mean if you can't tell the difference then your taste buds are dead yes but that's how it is with all the real cane sugar sodas over the counterparts that have the high fructose corn syrup there is a different taste and your body reacts totally differently to them Do you remember this stuff that came out probably 30 years ago called Jolt? Yeah, that was the best man. And they said like right on the label twice the caffeine to like all the bad shit was in there drink this jolts. Then it's come and gone a few times somebody tried to revive it then they're back in the day when all the computer guys were drinking balls B-A-W-L-S which is another like totally

1:45:15 caffeinated drink. Hey, you want to stay up all night and game or code? Well you need some balls! Speaking of balls... Oh I hope-I'm praying you-I know you mentioned something about WNBA and you beat you I'm hoping you're gonna cover this yeah this story is oddly at the front of the news and it has been for the last few days and bigger I think. It does, it continues to get bigger there were a couple of things going on the first was Clay Travis from Outkick Sports said well you know if you really want to stand by your guns that women and men are the same then he had an idea

1:46:02 Because the WNBA has right now a lot of coaches that are coming out, including in the last day or two saying hey if a man identifies as a woman he should be able to play in the WNBA. I think that is absolutely ludicrous it's absurd The WNBA commissioner has not spoken out in favor of Sophie Cunningham Or even just in favor of basic rules It's called the WNBA because its the women's basketball association there, right? If they are going to allow men to play I think we should have an actual game not NBA players against WNBA players, high school boys. Let me pick a team will I will put it on pay-per-view we'll donate all the profits to Tunnel the Towers for wounded warriors for the families out there that they're helping to take care of first responders you go you know Frank Siller they do incredible work will put it on pay per view if the high school boys win I will give them 10 million dollars if the WNBA team wins

1:47:02 I will give them $10 million. I think we would raise tens of millions of dollars for charity, and I'm putting my money where my mouth is." If the WNBA really doesn't believe that men are that much better than women at basketball then the champion of the WNBA should be able to beat a bunch of high school boys Will. So far they haven't responded they always talk about how they want more money this is more money for one basketball game that has ever been paid to win in the history of the sport. He's right, I think the highest payroll on a WNBA team now is $7 million for this season and he's offering and the people coming into the league...this made big news when Kaitlin Clark came into the league two years ago

1:47:54 was between 70 and 80,000. So we can round up and say 80,000. Offering $10 million to beat a high school boys basketball team why wouldn't these women jump at it if they thought they had even an even chance of winning? because he also went on to say that he has heard from countless high school coaches and are like hey look at my team. I'll bet yeah and this makes a very valid point that we have covered here and other places that men and women are not equal physically. They're not? Strength makes a difference, I know but this is how... I mean just keeping with this little part of the story this is how this challenge that the guy from Outkick putting out the 10 million dollar challenge this is how it was covered by

1:48:51 by a anchor out of Minneapolis who is an outwardly queer woman anchor but you can figure out what her point-of-view might be here. One last thing tonight, the entire world of women's sports is facing the debate within its own leagues of who should get to play and who should not And a voice that often shouts loudly in that debate is a right-leaning outlet owned by Fox News called Outkick Sports. And today its founder took to a new stunt, one that really makes no sense if Outkick is really concerned about caring about women and women's sports. Okay, can anybody explain to me how that has anything to do except show that he cares about women and women's sport not having to play against a larger more powerful man?

1:49:42 But no, she's going to take it the exact opposite direction and pretend. Oh no I can't even figure out why Larry! So Clay Travis he is the man behind OutKick. He announced today that he is offering $10 million dollars to the winner of a game of basketball between high school boys team of his choosing and WNBA defending champions the Las Vegas Aces. But obviously the answer is because he thinks it is so impossible for any group of women let alone the best in the game that they could ever beat younger and more inexperienced boys. It's a thinly veiled sexist joke. How is this a sexist joke? I don't know what how is this a sexist joke, it is making a valid point and he's putting up enough money madam

1:50:31 That she's probably annoyed by that because I think she was a they there. They're putting up enough money That this would be a big payday for this team So how is it a joke somebody's offering you 10 million dollars to play high school boys? This is the championship women's team in the WNBA To play a bunch of high school boys For ten million dollars. How is that really any I don't think it's thinly veiled at all. I think it's right out there How was it a sexist joke, I don't think it is Wow Younger and more inexperienced boys. It's a thinly veiled sexist joke revealing the actual truth of how he and his organization feel about women sports Not caring about them they think women sports are in joke No, we just think you're a joke lady yeah, well they think women sports She she's 50% correct Larry because they think women's sports is a joke once you allow men to

1:51:31 to start playing in that league. Well there's a lot of volunteers now aren't there? Three the last time I checked Yeah, i've got two this is uh the second one that came out this is Royce White former NBA first round draft pick That's a cool first name Royce It's like Rolls He has a brother named Rolls Earlier this week I made the announcement. I'm transgender, I identify as sometimes identifying as a woman for purposes of basketball professional basketball so i'll be declaring for the WNBA draft in 2027 as well

1:52:07 I mean, I think I'd be unstoppable. But I'm a team first guy. You know? I'm a pass-first kind of player. I do the little things. You know, I led my team in all five major stack categories at Iowa State University so I'll do whatever the coach needs me to do. I'll do whatever the girls need me to do." I think the WNBA could come out and make a definitive statement about guys with a pair of balls playing in the women's association. But, you know hey that'd be... That'd be probably too much like right, so. And I don't want to be discriminated against now. I want fair treatment. I'm a black...I'm a young black hopefully United States Senator that would like a fair chance to participate as sometimes identifying as a transgender woman athlete

1:53:00 Yeah, like the his delivery was good on that one. Royce is cool man I dig that and the latest from the WNBA because of course they're like oh geez now what is well this is still a Nuance topic Larry it's nuanced nuance yeah Okay whether it's a dude with balls or whether it's a female for the WNBA It is still nuance this next clip here is the original guy in s Cantor freedom he was the first one that came out and So I've got I think like the first 20 seconds or so is his Statement saying he wants to play in the WNBA followed immediately by Stephen a Smith and his reaction after careful concentration are reviewing the current eligibility guidelines. I am officially declaring myself at WNBA prospect as

1:53:53 If simply declaring who you are is all that's required, then I meet every single requirement necessary to compete in the WNBA. anybody who's hating on them should be ashamed of themselves. The WNBA, the NDA and everybody else in between is absolutely right when they talk about not violating people civil rights and liberties not being hateful, not engaging in hate in any way shape form or fashion whether verbally physically or otherwise we all know that but what Ida Cantor pointed to it's about competition so for somebody to transition from male to female

1:54:39 And for folks to act like it would be okay for them to participate in the WNBA is ridiculous. And when you have athletes from the WNBA saying that they're looking out for and speaking up on behalf of girls, because it would clearly be an unfair advantage to a trans athlete over people born female What's the problem? We gotta have common sense. And yes, Enos Kanter is going a bit too far but he's right to do so to make a point and Royce White former NBA player now conservative pundit He's right too cuz trying to make a point certain things are beyond ridiculous and you gotta call it out just to send them message Do you get it now

1:55:25 Are you sure you want to continue this subject? Are you sure you want to continue on this path? Sure, you don't want to be political pawns. Fine! Then understand that the WNBA is for girls and people born female and leave it at that. And stop acting like you don't know otherwise there'll be a lot more anus cancers We all know y'all won't want that Yeah, but I'm not sure they don't want that. That's the weird thing with whatever is going on at the WNBA. This is just a really quick clip from the head coach of the Indiana I just want to say that was, I really enjoyed listening to Stephen A. Smith there because he was talking not screaming He's hit and miss! Well that was actually very good it was very good he needs to stay that course i'm sorry for the interruption Mellow out that delivery rather than going well let me tell you this... That's very good You got it man It goes from quiet to loud

1:56:25 He is working the crowd all the time. This is the coach of the Indiana Fever, which is the team with Sophie Cunningham and with Kaitlyn Clark And when she was asked about this particular conundrum about well men in women's sports her answer was maybe possibly The dumbest thing I've heard so far in this whole ordeal What is your stance on men or athletes who test as biological male participating in women's sports? What's your personal stance. Yeah, I mean i'm...I don't know that I would say that I'm educated enough from a scientific standpoint uh..i don't ever believe that exclusion is an answer. I just don't

1:57:07 She is not educated enough in the scientific standpoint to understand the difference between a male and female. Head coach, Indiana Fever! She must be friends with that Supreme Court Justice who couldn't say what a woman was? Yes It's the same thing I mean I saw a... it was either a meme or somebody posted the other day that if somebody would have told you ten years ago that the biggest argument going around the country would be whether a man and well what is a man and what is a woman nobody would believe it It's incredible. I know how we can take advantage of this, Darren. We're going to go to the WNBA? I could play! Even with one eye, I could play. You could absolutely. I'm sure you'd do very well but iIm thinking maybe what we need to do is propose

1:57:51 Adam C. Curry, he is six foot five. So am I! You are too and imagine what it would do suddenly this podcast guys they want in now and one of them's you know... that would be sensational What a play The Towers of Power coming to you right from the WNBA Yes yes And just to prove how deeply ingrained in identity politics that the WNBA is The coach, which we just heard from the Indiana Fever. There was a flagrant foul called on Sophie Cunningham who is now getting the crap beat out of her just like Kaitlin Clark has had. I saw that. That was infuriating man. The foul was up to the level where the player was ejected. Mm-hmm. The Indiana Fever, the coach that is on Sophie's team, the woman that got mauled

1:58:51 was like, well you know I guess it was the right call but i don't think it was intentional. Like sure sure it wasn't intentional but the player that fouled her so hard she was ejected went immediately to social media and do you know what she posted on social media? Tell me White privilege because Sophie's white and this girl is black This is how down the rabbit hole these folks in the WNBA are. And nobody ever cared about the WNBA, let's be honest! No Until Kaitlin Clark got there But it is a very good example of you know the culture war that is going on right now Oh yeah yes and its hilarious to me that you have NBA guys now going well I'd like to play Well you and Adam have to be next They're gonna let him in? I wanna find out what kind of fun that could be

1:59:51 But since people say we don't go after the right wingers enough, here is a clip from Megyn Kelly where I think she's being politics into your sport where they don't belong, like Colin Kaepernick kneeling in the middle of professional football games. It's quite another when little girls are getting the shit kicked out of them in their sport and you are the most famous woman in women's basketball and you're directly asked as the issue rears its head in your sport and you punt on it

2:00:36 You won't say anything. You'd rather let the 12 year olds handle it, F that big words from Megan for trying to get in the shoes of a Caitlin Clark who is already getting the crap kicked out everybody other women in the league yes and if she doesn't want to make a statement that's America baby she does it political no she doesn't know You know, so to be here and be like no she's in you know I just don't even understand the insanity that this is where we are now. That you have to...I mean i'm tired of people who are like not only do you have to support us or believe that we're right but you have to come out and publicly say something getting called out. I think Megan's forgetting that this is a free country

2:01:33 and that this woman is getting the crap kicked out of her on a daily basis. It was a great 10-12 minutes, Victor Davis Hanson did the other day check it out on YouTube talking about this but he's like the identity politics in the WNBA Very interesting because it seems that it is a Majority black players and also a majority lesbian and you have Caitlin Clark And now Sophie Cunningham who are straight white girls That all of a sudden are the most popular People in the league and our now even though these other players are

2:02:18 have gone from literally the change because Caitlin Clark hitting in the amount of people that are watching the WNBA. They've gone from having to fly coach, to being able to fly private all of their contracts have gone up there all making more money but they hate her because she doesn't look like them because she doesn't share the same you know sexual preference that they do it is insane I'm not a regular watcher of Megyn Kelly, but lately. I kind of get the feeling very often She's just doing us pot stirring deal you know maybe it was the Ozemt bigly something happened Oh did she ozempic herself too? Yeah? I think so I mean there was a change that was pretty quick at one point oh

2:03:06 But I mean that's just speculation. That is just from the producer's mode as John and Adam would always say, just looking strictly from a producer's mode where we'll comment upon the way that you watch it. She's an amateur compared to Ariana Grande. I know, the girl needs a hamburger man i'm telling you that girl needs professional attention she is getting into the Karen Carpenter zone really that's no joke It's sad because she has talent and can sing. She has tremendous talent I mean you may not like her music but she can actually sing without all of the auto-tune and all of that. Sure, very talented girl it's very...I see these pictures like oh my god wow what are you doing? How much is social media because they are being judged on a minute by minute basis and you and i will read at some point some of the reviews of us doing the show Adam was very kind a lot of people seem to like what we're doing but there

2:04:06 For Larry and I it's kind of like, hey did you see this one? Oh yeah did you see this. And it's funny but for somebody like Ariana Grande the negativity might actually... Maybe cause a problem and you know, oh no. I gotta I gotta be I gotta be perfect. I got to achieve whatever the goal is in this social media with kids that do nothing but sit at home on their screens rather than going out and having conversations With their friends and not worried about what anybody outside of their little group cared about? I mean that's I didn't have the ability to see that until the internet rolled around and by the time the internet rolled around I mean it really became prevalent you know, i was already in my 30s so by that point

2:04:51 You have a whole different skin on you to take the people that are going to be haters. But it's horrible, I mean don't have kids so a lot of people like oh you shouldn't even comment but if you can see it, its dangerous, it's bad. It is very dangerous much so. I think Adam had a great phrase for what do they say? Sorta like the... wasn't chemically or something digitally induced autism And I absolutely know that for a fact because back in the day, my kids were in school in Los Angeles. There were several kids and I knew that the goddamn iPad was just basically stitched to the palms of their hands! They never put it down and by the time these kids are five or six years old they basically couldn't or wouldn't speak. Wow

2:05:46 Yeah, like what are you doing? Rip that out of that kid's paws. So yeah... It is what it is! Yes again parents make your kids grow up without the technology as much as you can I some people be like it's impossible one I don't think it's impossible You can limit it you could do a flip phone if you want to feel like your kids can get ahold of you Do the flip phone, they don't need full access to everything at least until they're in high school and even then you want to be on top of them. And understand and explain... You're gonna have to have those hard conversations. I mean parents never wanna have ya know the birds or the bees it's always like oh maybe I can wait I don't wanna do it when they're 12 but you gotta be on top of this stuff!

2:06:32 Give me an Etch-A-Sketch. That's the answer. I used to be like, Bob... That's what I had! Oh man it was like turn one knob turn the other knob. There are at least three no agenda artists right now like Etch and Sketch that is the artwork we're gonna need! Could do anything but dot an i. You can't skip you'd have to be really good to skip Now you've got one more here, I've got one more. Is there a set up for me? Oh forget that one we'll save that for next time. Good old Stevie Miller but... Yeah it's no shelf life to it will be just as good next time Well this one for anybody that has listened to Planet Rage You will recognize this horrible AI tune He lost his mind he is lost in school All your friends are just a fool

2:07:23 He says I'll be unbelief. He's such an asshole, he's king, King of the Queen. I'd like to congratulate President Trump on becoming the first U.S leader to lose a war Iran makes a deal all right not with Trump but with Oman They now jointly control the Strait of Hormuz and Trump in the US We can pay the effing toll cash only

2:08:07 There didn't used to be a toll, now there's a toll. Big L for Trump! Trump an American president has lost a war I'm so tired of all the winning so let's try all the losing Yes The Countdown Podcast is back Glad you noticed after 88 days of rest and recovery Yeah, I just wanted to say 88. 88? Yes, thank you. We have Trump losing in Iran, Abdul El-Sayed winning in Michigan and immediately going on the offensive throwing punches at the Republican The bigger picture about how Trump is making pollution and death by climate change great again The failures of Maggie Haberman and the Times And the Tony Fauci hearing or... ...the many faces of Laura Ingraham

2:08:56 And you know what I mean. Oh, on the Thursday Countdown podcast wherever you podcast and the full video version me on camera for an hour! I don't know if that's a great selling point now on YouTube? No it's not it's not a great selling point. I am so glad you did that and what great timing on Keith's part. I think some in some way like we're magnetically linked We Three back after almost three months because he started having AFib His doctor told him that he should cut down on the on the anger, but I doubt he's one that can

2:09:34 Down on the anger. I don't he doesn't seem like he could but he's a better doctor than Scott Lobato does Really? Well, you got him before The yeah So it's good to hear Keith voice again. I'm glad it is round and let's give full credit that That composition is all Darren O'Neill. He's not doing the singing no bad AI But man SP that became an absolute classic of on Planet Rage people always wanted to hear that Keef the Queef and you did several iterations but that's the best one. That's really great again we learned from No Agenda, people like and then all of a sudden you create something like that they're like oh no you gotta keep playing that yeah how these things happen will never know We're just glad they do I'm gonna show my support by donating to NO AGENDA imagine all the people who could do that Oh Yeah! They'd be fab!

2:10:35 Yeah, this is a podcast that is out there. It's value for value and Sir Chris Wilson sent this out to you for the value for value so let me listen to this This is your amygdala without no agenda Any questions? We highly recommend you get a podcasting 2.0 app, you can get it at podcastapps.com then you can get the bat signal when we go live! You can always know when we go live, you know and there's a new show if you laugh you cry your better than cats of course we are where else are going to hear Billy Idol making out with Julie Brown I mean that's... yearly true only here

Let's see that is 771 now with a peak of 1103 everybody wanted to hear the podfather. Hey, that's okay man yeah 1103 not bad They always run like right when they're like oh no they're gonna talk about donations we gotta run the trolls are afraid

2:12:25 of donations. I don't know why trolls just go to noagendadonations.com you will feel good, they will in that way you'll know get your podcasting 2.0 app we have to acknowledge that one of the ways you can show some value is by doing artwork for the show And we were totally remiss on the last show to not mention Mike Riley's beautiful artwork of the water tower with the Iranian lock. It is so beautiful that I see Mike Riley back, and Larry you didn't follow the art as closely as I did which was well way too close. It was beautiful though. So much artwork and Adam had to get me out of the competition just so the other artists can come back

2:13:06 and step up. And Mike Reilly, a true artist he's published books of his work he is a cartoonist who does this thing without the AI assistance Oh wow. Which makes him even more impressive if you want, if you like that and you like to find out more just go over to Mike Riley dot lol which is a great domain it is now on the last show we had uh a few different things to choose from and I'll pull this here up as well but the one we chose came from Parker Pauly A Black Knight

2:13:42 And it was of the JCD buzzkill shaver which Adam and John taught me always go with the joke. And this was the perfect joke, it was The shaver from the story that Adam told that he would turn on JCD's microphone and you know He might be eating breakfast or he might be shaving in a way like what? Yeah. Who's shaving right before the show with an electric razor, which now makes you wonder what's inside that Heil PR 40 that he was using? There has to be some trimmings. It's got to be some yeah there's gotta be some trimmings in there. There is no doubt about it

2:14:28 Oh, and I've got thunder going on loud. Just a fair warning! Yeah the area here lately anytime it rains it seems like the power goes out so hopefully I won't disappear but there were a plethora of interesting pieces we liked Tyler Brown's Fauci in the orange jumpsuit but that was too depressing A little bit...but it was good The one from comic strip blogger Which had two men and a woman in the middle and said O'Neal Blydener and curry I we didn't know why you made Larry a blonde woman. It's the trans Larry it's gotta be it right? Let's get into the WNBA now what a hell to point on will make it a threesome Is there is there a women's podcasting network, I don't know what are we What are we trying to do the oh

2:15:21 Tyler Brown the grim Fauci fairy tale. I thought that was cute, but just it didn't have the oomph That the Parker Hawley piece had although I did like Ness works the Larry and dairy cuz everybody's gonna study us It sounds funny And scaramanga, I mean you're getting closer with the with the cheesecake when when the Thunder is coming through the noise gate You know You know, the weather's fun. So thank you to Parker Pauly and everybody who has sent artwork in I see there is already some interesting Mike Riley pieces good to have him back named Kenny Ben was back comic strip blogger it's like the old art crowd is back. Good old days yeah And we very much appreciate that but We also appreciate people that come in financially and these are real credits

2:16:19 If you come in at $333 or over, you are an Executive Producer 200 or over. Associate Executive Producers they are indeed real credits that you can use on your IMDB page and Larry's IMDB page is very interesting as well. God I haven't even looked at that in years! I'll have to take a peek. You gotta update it make sure its all right. I never do that stuff just leave it to the fates yeah never I'm telling you this is a thunders going good here, but we have a bunch of people to thank today And I'll start off here with our buddy Ron V, 42 coming in from Hoffman Estates Illinois. I met him at the only meetup that I've gone to so far. Sat across from Ron he's totally not a spook or anything like that totally not doing government work nothing to worry about whatsoever He says in the morning everyone had no agenda Ron V here and I bet either Darren O'er Larry will be reading this who is like Carminek too

Congratulations on that Ron wow his donation is $404 and did i say the page not found?

Please de-douche me JCD's passing hit me harder than I expected Thank you and God bless you all. And says to the Dvorak family, Larry, Darren and Adam my donation comes with a spirit of gratitude and celebration towards the people who impact our lives including all of you. As I write this on bittersweet88, I think about those we lose often leave unexpected signs

2:19:16 Antidote time to honor Mimi. I finally ordered my own copy of too many eggs It's a great book and you can download it You can order it too many eggs calm, I believe Of course, it was delivered and sat outside unprotected during a Noah's Ark level downpour While my husband was at work and I was out of state this week I was convinced I'd come home to a waterlogged mess inside the box But instead the book was pristine Probably dumb luck, but I'd like to believe John's spirit helped ensure that I can enjoy Mimi's work. August is a bittersweet month for me too although the anniversary of my dad's passing comes this Thursday and I also have my 10th wedding anniversary with Sir Knives to look forward on 8-27. Congratulations." She says thanks for putting up with me so long my love!

2:20:11 in our own little New England JCD Memorial Meetup on the 29th. Larry, we would be honored if you would even go over the border to Little Rhody for that otherwise we hope to see you soon Whether those we care about are still with us or not, we can always be thankful for them and celebrate the impact that they've had on our lives. For now I'd just like to say thank you for reading my note. Thank you to the entire No Agenda community for your courage with so much love to all lady butters well thank you lady butters P.S., attached is the egg book on proud display alongside our obnoxiously large dictionary in honor of my fellow word nerd, JCD.

2:20:56 Hill. And I've got to say, I have the great honor of knowing Lady Butters and Sir Knives. I met them both and talked with them at length at a couple of meetups. They came all the way into Higginham, Connecticut where they happen from Rhode Island. They are spectacular people. She's just a wonderful woman And Sir Knives, I think is a very dangerous guy. He may...I get the feeling there's more to him than he's telling. He knows a lot of stuff and he's a cool dude so this is this is a very cool thing and if I can get over to your neck-of-the-woods on the 29th that would be an honor thank you ladybug. Well yeah it sounds like you don't want Sir Knives mad at you? Never no

2:23:49 And Hasmaticus the second from Manassas, Virginia came in with $223. Says rest in peace John's passing hit me harder than expected it felt like losing a friend or perhaps an old teacher you know that's a good analog there because we've all learned something from John whether we wanted to or not He will certainly be missed, he says.

2:35:12 Says, thank you Darren and Larry for stepping in. Your media deconstruction is insightful... And he spelled it with an S because Ben Rose pointed out the other day that insightful and insightful both sound exactly the same! That's true they do this one's from Dennis Hahn of Menominee Falls Wisconsin 9364 In 2022, I made my first donation of $88.88 in honor of JCD's anniversary and my two daughters' birthdays on August 7th and 8th respectively. It seems appropriate to complete my knighthood by bookending it with another $88.88 including fees. I began listening to No Agenda shortly before the 2020 election in the midst of the Wuhan pandemic. Since then, I haven't missed a show. Have also made some great friends via several No Agenda meetups

2:36:03 When I began listening, John would always start off the show with The Zephyr Report. which just happened to be my high school mascot. Therefore, please knight me as Sir Zephyr of the Valley, defender of the lands of beer and cows! Also please add my daughters Allison Hahn who turned 24 on 8-7 and Sarah Engel who turns 28 today, eight nine, to the birthday list. Happy Birthday to the best daughters a father could ask for! Finally all my love and prayers to the Dvorak and Curry families In the time of grief, the Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. Psalm 34 18.

3:20:50 Many years ago when Dvorak was working for Mevio and Adam Carey was his boss, I wanted to interview Dvorak for my podcast which was about tech. Dvorak didn't want to do it so I contacted Adam Carey and Adam Carey told Dvorak to do it and Dvorak did it. It was done over Skype. It was fun! Story number two I was chatting with Worak over direct messages on Twitter and Worak told me that his mother was born in Poland and she had Polish passport. And I told the Worak to get Polish citizenship which is equal to European Union citizenship, with freedom of movement to EU countries and after Atlantis like Norway and Switzerland

3:21:45 And Voig was angry that I suggested it and he blocked me on Twitter for several years. These are two stories from me, ComicStribbleBlogger Thank you for your service!
