About this episode

Signal Trace technology is transforming Flock Safety license plate reader poles into comprehensive signal intelligence hubs that track individuals via Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and RFID signatures. Retailers like Walmart are already utilizing these digital fingerprints to monitor customer movement and identify potential shoplifters through their mobile devices. Meanwhile, the city of Sheboygan, Wisconsin, recently canceled its contract with Flock Safety after the company attempted to sell the city's own traffic data back to local law enforcement.

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang predicts a massive economic shift toward compute-based energy monetization, while Elon Musk claims one billion humanoid robots will soon outperform human labor. In the public sector, a USPS whistleblower has exposed a rushed IT rollout for federal mail-in ballots that critics fear could lead to catastrophic failures during the midterm elections. Legal investigator Garland Favarito reports that Georgia courts are using standing requirements to stall election integrity lawsuits, and the Department of Transportation has shut down 110 driving schools for certifying commercial drivers who lack basic English proficiency.

Adam Curry and Rob Dew broadcast from Rotterdam to analyze the rise of neighbor narcs and the criminalization of free-range parenting in Virginia. The duo explores the esoteric themes of C.S. Lewis and the Gates of Reincarnation before debunking a viral prank involving a Tesla Cyber Taxi detaining passengers. MMA fighter Cole Johnson provides a moment of levity with his widely mocked plan to fight a chimpanzee in a foreign country.

00:00 to give me the right hat at the right moment just when I was ready to buy something. I can't believe i almost made a mistake. Hello everybody in the morning to you coming to you once again from the kingdom of the Netherlands, in Rotterdam The gateway to all drugs throughout Europe This is your no agenda show In The Morning Trolls! I am Adam Curry and with me as always we always want to bring him a song Unimitable Robin Do will be with us momentarily Sir Ducifer in the house

00:45 Just do it. Sunday, second coat Seducifer back in the chair with the podfather Rob Doo on the right mic reading the pressure while Adam steers The slaughter Mail-in fight at the court While the ballast leave the dock Vans won't call it a war While the diesel cracks the clock Just Do It Just Do It Word and strike story Midterm machine In the mix Missouri map is black to musk money in the stick They sold you a war with us off the name so do a ballet with that I'd refrain sir. Do some for a shotgun father and son they do on the glass now peel the game just

01:41 It's getting more violent In the morning sir, do you suffer in the morning? Wow at least these opening songs are getting pretty rowdy Almost violent, you know it's like I'm a wrestler or something. I'm coming out to wrestling yeah exactly You need like the you know the pyrotechnics going everything got your you gotta take off your Your gown your dressing-gown and you're good to go right? That's my manager and then flex for the crowd yeah And the crowd goes wild

02:27 Rob Duce, Sir Ducifer here once again with us for the best podcast in the universe. I'd completely forgotten because i'm still here in Rotterdam this is Labor Day weekend! Yeah that means no one's listening...I sort of forgot about it I don't even know what day it is and today's my brother's birthday and I'm like what? What's going on? September is already here. I didn't even realize it was Labor Day weekend until I got the newsletter. I'm like oh hold on a second so that means uh no one's here just you and me No one ever listen trolls. No, there's a couple of trolls Let me let me take let's do an early troll count hold on second. Let's see what we got here We've got oh 706 okay? Oh 719. Oh it's moving up its movement Okay Yeah, it's moving up

CHAPTER 02 / 32 Discussion

No Agenda Community, Sir Brian and DewTheDew.com

A community member named Sir Brian registered the domain DewTheDew.com as a tribute to co-host Rob Dew, modeled after the Mountain Dew marketing slogan. The hosts discuss the high volume of audio clips being produced for the show and the synergy within the listener base. References are made to the "crackpot and buzzkill" dynamic emerging between the presenters.

no agenda community· brian with an eye· dewthedew.com· clips· podcasting

03:10 Well, this might be a good time to just talk about the No Agenda community. Wait a minute! Do you have your fan on? I can turn it off... Yeah, yeah, I think you should because it's gonna bug me. It might lay in line hold on by the way Sir Ducifer sent 800 clips It's like you're outdoing me, man with the amount of clips you've been creating. That was beautiful! Oh it got ridiculous this morning... It did I can tell Well this is what happened. I played a gig last night and i'll get back to the No Agenda community in one second but we played a gig last night, I got home, I was talking to my sister on the phone, I kind of fell asleep after I talked to her and then I woke up this morning goes oh shit I didn't make any clips yet

03:55 It was like 730 in the morning made coffee made clips You went all-in man. I was making clips too, I've been Sitting with with the grandbaby you know just kind of rocking back and forth like okay clip clip We'll do that make your cutting with one hand oh yeah Well i'm vaping Don't tell my daughter Oh my goodness. Hey man, I can vape above the baby it's okay You could actually hold the baby while vaping and do clips in the other one so you could...I'm telling that happened This is only certain podcasters have this ability Did you figure out the rap yet? Do you have the swab? The swaddling clothes? Swaddling thing? And I don't do the swaddle I just like come here Besides whenever the baby is in my arm It's always pfft pfft It's always tooting Ya know its like ahh

04:47 They're processing all the American diet or I guess the Rotterdam diet at this point. Yeah, and so yeah they're doing that up but uh let me just go to a quick plug for Sir Brian with an eye he out of the kindness of his own heart i didn't even ask him he grabbed a domain but listening to that opening music He grabbed D-E-W T-H-E D-E-W dot com. So do the dew, which is a take off of Mountain Dew and then he made me a little site and it did a great job and there's nothing much on it now we're building it up but he just did this... You are giving him way more than he deserves! Do you think this was your no agenda community report?

05:34 And that was my note. Well, I do have another part of that too. Sir Scott of the Armory also has been sending me tips and stuff and he's extremely, you know he likes what we're doing. He likes the synergy there and yeah he was but he said this is what I'm seeing. I guess i'll do it as Alex Jones. This is what I'm seeing. You are now the crackpot and he is the buzzkill that's what he says. Yes! And its kind of weird because I always thought that would happen at one point where I would just be the old guy And in fact, it really has happened a little bit because you came in with the Lancy Clancy stuff.

CHAPTER 03 / 32 Discussion

Lindsay Clancy Case, Social Media Conspiracy Theories

The discussion centers on the public obsession with the Lindsay Clancy case and how social media platforms like TikTok and Substack fuel conspiracy theories. Comparisons are drawn to the O.J. Simpson trial, noting that modern technology allows individuals to broadcast opinions instantly, often leading to claims of "psyops." The hosts suggest this focus stems from a collective feeling of powerlessness regarding global events like war and inflation.

lindsay clancy· candace owens· tiktok· substack· conspiracy theories

06:17 And I was like, oh man. And it is by far the number one trending story everywhere It's crazy! And I cut back on my clips of that just because you were like, how are you looking at this? Yeah but I'm rolling my eyes! I think it's going to lead to some precedence going on in this trial And one clip I didn't cut was a comedian, Owen Benjamin talking about that case the Galancy case and it case in I think Scotland or Ireland where a nurse strangled her three kids like three years before. I mean weird and on the same day it happened on the same day three years later. Yeah but what here is like

07:02 So it's just what people are talking about, because this is something they can control their opinion. They can't control the war. They can't control the price of gas, but they can control their opinion and what they say on TikTok and all these other forms of getting their word out there. Well yeah, they could control it. But I understand but it's got it's gotten into Candace Owens level conspiracy like The husband he suspicious. I don't trust him And it just It's just going to go And I blame podcasts, honestly. Podcasts and Substack is the problem! It's a real problem when it comes to this. You mentioned a Substack you read last week about this what did it say? Was it blaming the father? Well no...it was talking about how many people think its a psyop. I've gotten tons of emails from people saying hey man is this a psyop? No. No it's not. We went through this with the OJ trial

07:58 But we didn't have social media. We didn't have YouTube and we all had to kind of, you know sit by the television and wait for the verdict to come down And then you we had that if the glove fits you must acquit I mean though it we had our version of memes back in the day but not now It's just out of control and I don't people Must not be working You know, they're sitting at home or they're sitting at the job. And you know what they are doing? They are on the toilet looking at their phones I think you said it though...I think you said it right is that people feel so powerless about what's happening in the world in general That all they have is their opinion That actually a pretty astute observation

CHAPTER 04 / 32 Discussion

Signal Trace, Mass Surveillance via Flock Camera Poles

Signal Trace is identified as a commercial signal intelligence system that attaches to Flock Safety license plate reader poles to log Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and RFID signatures. The technology creates unique digital fingerprints by grouping devices like iPhones, Apple Watches, and hearing aids that travel together, effectively tracking individuals even without facial recognition. Retailers like Walmart utilize these systems to monitor traffic flow and identify potential shoplifters in parking lots.

signal trace· flock safety· alpr· rfid· mass surveillance

08:44 Well, and their opinion now at least has reach and they can send it out there. And people go oh I like this opinion or don't like this opinion they give it a thumbs up thumb down everybody gets to rate everybody's opinion. If your opinions good and has legs in the eyes of this person then broadcast around. Well before we even delve into that, I did a little bit of research because you piqued my interest with... So there's really a couple of things that are playing so got the Clancy-Lancy trial—I forget her name—we have the data centers which is another thing everybody has an opinion about but no one wants to go sit in the zoning committee or anything like that okay? We have Muslims taking over America has kind of fallen down to fourth place I noticed

09:31 Yep, that's kind of off the radar for the moment. By the way they are here in Rotterdam. They're definitely taking over here and the flock cameras... And the flock cameras, I really wanted to understand a little bit better because it all folds into one. It's like the surveillance state and really most stories about the flock cameras is law enforcement officers stalking their ex-girlfriends, their wives seeing who's cheating. Well then of course ICE but it doesn't seem like there's really egregious stuff going on but it folds into the data centers

10:12 Where, you know this is the surveillance state and it's all going to be stored right next door to us which none of that there's no evidence of this at all. But you piqued my interest with your clip about This extra piece on a flock camera pole that was in a Walmart parking lot And it was you know There were some people and they were noticing that their Bluetooth would cut out mm-hmm and so turns out that There's multiple, first of all the FLOC system is not just for law enforcement. Walmart and other big box stores contract with them to track license plates in their parking lot. And for a number of different reasons, to see how traffic flow is going but also for thieves you know and then they shared amongst different stores okay these are shoplifters they just parked be on alert so it really doesn't have that much do with law enforcement because after all it's a commercial company that runs this

11:13 But this additional bit is from an outfit called Signal Trace. And they have a commercially available add-on or product that you can add on to a Flockpole and I found a couple of clips, and it's really quite disturbing because this is being done commercially by the people you shop from. SignalTrace is a signal intelligence system that's used in tandem with ALPRs And basically what this is Think of a giant war driver, a pole that sits in place and logs every signal that drives by it. Your airpods, your smartwatch, your iphone, your iPad, your car's hotspot...

12:00 even the devices that you're using on your day-to-day. And it's not just limited to Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, it can also supposedly log RFID signatures as well This is where its kind of concerning because we've somehow moved past just mass surveillance on a camera level but the system is put in place to log everything. Now here's what weird, SignalTrace is so sophisticated that it will categorize devices that its seen traveling together and file it as one unit So if you constantly travel with a smartwatch AirPods Airphone and let's say an IOT device of some sorts whether be a computer or something of the sort It will log that into its own group

12:50 That's another level of monitoring because after everything is come together it will basically categorize that as you and label it with a location paired with your face and location and this giant hub that's constantly monitoring. This is mass surveillance on an insane scale, so all of that data correlation provides a unique fingerprint. And I've learned that it also can include my hearing aids they have they fingerprint me with them so even if i

13:27 Left my phone in the car or didn't even bring it with me your pets RFID chip This is powerful stuff man, and then you think that this is just one car or do you know? They're they're really putting all of this together Let's say that you got out of your car And you got into an uber the camera would then know That you have traveled from a different car It wouldn't need to just log your license plate. God forbid somebody were to log or change their license plate afterwards, then the camera would still know and the systems put in place would note that that person is no longer traveling in the same vehicle that they were traveling in or is an Uber and where they might go based on other third party data

CHAPTER 05 / 32 Discussion

Walmart App Privacy, Data Collection Policies

Walmart's updated mobile application privacy policy reveals extensive data collection including keystroke patterns, voice prints, iris imagery, and face geometry. The hosts critique the trade-off of personal privacy for small financial incentives or convenience. They note that modern smart devices, such as LG TVs, are designed to listen and monitor users continuously under the terms of their End User License Agreements.

walmart· privacy policy· biometric data· eula· data collection

14:17 Yeah, this is fantastic. Because what people are mad about is that they have signed the EULAs and they've given up on privacy and now they're seeing that it's being used... yeah law enforcement sure but it's being used everywhere to manipulate prices to understand your profile... Send you coupons Yeah, well of course. I mean that's i think most of what it is going to be try to sell you stuff at the end of the day The big promise was give me the right hat at the right moment just when I was ready to buy something and it will replace the milk in my refrigerator the minute its out but I mean it so bad You know the LG TVs

15:06 I mean, they literally are listening to you all the time. And if you look at the... We have one! Oh my Lord and we got a system update says oh do you want to read the license? Yeah sure. With remote control my thumb got tired of scrolling down and then that you get to the all uppercase letters and you know you're just screwed like it's our own fault where we've allowed this to happen Here's what Walmart just updated their app. Now the information they will be collecting is name, IP address social media info browsing and search activity keystroke patterns voice print iris and retina imagery face geometry palm prints fingerprints household income education I mean it goes on and on i'm not halfway through the list yeah so that's what you gave up when you uh when you grab these apps at convenience yeah that they give you oh you get ten dollars off if you join

CHAPTER 06 / 32 Discussion

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, AI Economics and Tokens

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang discusses the economic shift toward "compute" and the production of mathematical "tokens" as a new form of energy monetization. While Huang predicts the imminent arrival of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI), the hosts express skepticism, characterizing current AI as a "parlor trick" based on pattern recognition rather than true intelligence. The conversation highlights Nvidia's unique position as the primary hardware provider for the AI industry.

jensen huang· nvidia· artificial intelligence· agi· tokens

16:02 Well, I've been not taking my phone down to breakfast here in the hotel. You're winning! I'm winning and they still go, good morning Mr. Curry. Yeah you know you gotta log into your breakfast could you please scan your room key here? It's unbelievable how far this has gotten so before we get anything I just want to explain something about artificial intelligence Because people are so negative about it. And I am completely negative on the chatbots, from day one i said its a parlor trick, its bad don't use these things as some kind of oracle that has all the knowledge... It doesn't!

16:50 Actually does a respectful job at looking things up because it has direct connections to Google But that's it's really it's useless. Don't use the things like this and I was surprised to hear Jensen Wang Wang Jensen Wang The only guy who is has a company that's making any kind of money, and it's insane money Which is Nvidia? And so we had the g20 It was North Carolina, the G20 finance ministers. And of course it was like you know that General Scott Besant was there and Howard Lutnick for some reason was the interviewer. So yeah I thought that was weird too and almost...I thought that was an older clip. I saw a couple Lutnick clips so I'm like yeah Lutnick's there? That is weird! Yeah. And so this comes on the heels of OpenAI releasing

17:40 ChatGPT6 Astra, which as far as I can tell just does an amazing job at creating video stuff. It's so powerful! Where is the Lisp guy? Give me the Lisp guy! Come on! OpenAI is now introducing... What it called? Astra It's so powerful. The most powerful AI ever invented, but it is for your safety. So Jensen Wang who I know the whole look on the new Steve Jobs look at my leather jacket you know he actually wasn't wearing the leather jacket of this he had a suit and tie on he made some points that

18:26 are correct and I just wanted to highlight a couple of things from his interview. So we can get a better... because I've been living this stuff for two years. I didn't just sit here and complain and say it sucked, I dove into it! I went really really as deep as I could you know? I went on to Linux to understand what the combination can do of the so-called harnesses like Cloud Code and Hermes or HMAS, what's the other one? Pi All of them. I've tried every single one of them to really see, okay what can be done with this? And I have had astounding results in productivity for myself Notice I haven't been able to replace John C Dvorak with a robot so there are limitations to what these things can do But just a couple of clips here that I got from Jensen people are always interested on where the world's going

19:21 If you were going to give us sort of your big picture view, where are we going? I mean for this to be the Commerce Secretary like does he really not know... Where are we going?! I'm just an interviewer. Go to MSNBC with these questions, the conversation. Epstein was just my neighbor! Which we've been thinking about that we don't always talk about it. You know what? You see everything really all the companies in the world sort of come and visit with you and sort of tell you where they're going how would you sort of give us a big picture of it a set of ideas that we don't usually hear about this is almost as bad Bono tell me what is the song about? It's an explain. Can you give us an explainer? That's like it explainer, which is just like yeah explain to me Like I'm like I'm five years old by please well There are some things that we hear and then all objects oppose that Against what I expect and so for example in the next couple of years We are going to achieve essentially what people call a GI okay

20:23 It's always coming. And that is not an illogical thing to me, in fact I would argue that we're practically there today Okay so he starts off with some mumbo-jumbo AGI which what that means has changed several times In fact Astra is supposed to be AGI now but it won't be there'll be something else So that the it's smarter than a human is just no it's not true But the business model is interesting because a bit like electricity, it's a bit like mining Bitcoin. In fact they call them tokens so it is kind of interesting to hear how they view this. So can you talk about how compute produces economics? Compute?! Yeah this is the big strange idea The idea is called a token and this token is a mathematical outcome of a lot of computation And this token represents intelligence

21:21 You take all of these tokens, these numbers... First of all it doesn't represent intelligence. It gives you lots of smarts! It represents a word or phrase, it's an abstraction, not intelligence. You take all of these tokens and numbers, reformulate them in such a way that creates an image, writes a paragraph answers questions solves problems No it doesn't. These tokens are mathematically produced in these computers that we make, and in a lot of the same ways if you go back 100 years, couple hundred years, the world discovered this new idea called energy and you monetize it dollars per kilowatt hours Today its dollars per million token

22:16 It's the same idea. It's kind of invisible, it's hard to understand but it is incredibly valuable. Okay so I disagree fundamentally that this a great business idea because basically these things are created with electricity you need a lot of it so might as well just say your translating electricity into tokens Well, notice how he paused when he got to creating new ideas. He like paused for a second like should I say this or should I not say this? Yeah That's that's total bullcrap because all these things do is just have knowledge of Patterns and it brings the next pattern but well, I do like the analogy of electricity because when an electricity first came out

CHAPTER 07 / 32 Discussion

AI Programming Revolution, Claude Code and Custom Tools

The emergence of AI agents like Claude Code allows non-programmers to build complex software tools using natural language instead of traditional coding languages like Python. One host describes using these tools to build a custom podcast playout system and a donation spreadsheet tracker on a GNU Linux system running the Omarchy distribution. This shift is framed as a democratization of technology that bypasses the need for Silicon Valley intermediaries.

claude code· python· gnu linux· omarchy· open source ai

23:00 you know, everybody was like well I'm gonna die. You know? I'm going to get electrocuted my house is going to burn down people were very afraid of electricity and i think that we're seeing this fear of AI in a different way like it's going to take my job and all these bozos have said that over and over again except for the one guy who's actually making money not by selling tokens, but by selling people the hardware to create the tokens. So he's sitting in a really good place to say whatever he wants But this is what it got me and this is the part that I have come to understand after two years of working

23:41 With every single large language model, the frontier models, the open source models running it on my own hardware. This is what it's ultimately this is what its about. You know people if you just take a step back and think about computer technology in the last 50 years computers has been a tool for about 10-20 million people And if you don't know how to, the only way to take advantage of this capability is to know how to program the computer and design a computer. So that's my career designing computers and programming computers It's really narrowly focused on 10-20-30 million people around the world For the first time anybody in the world can program a computer You could program a computer using human language Yes! This has always been Silicon Valley's

24:34 ultimate goal and we saw it early on. I want to make an app that does this, you know? Oh no before all that, and you may be too young Rob do um We had on the Mac we had a hyper talk HyperCard And the promise there was you can just draw these cards and you could put a button on it, and you could make the button do something. It could do a calculation. I remember with my first Mac Plus, I'm like oh this is so cool! I can build computer programs without being able to write code. Of course no it didn't work then they came out with AppleTalk

25:18 Was it AppleTalk? No, not AppleTalk. It was... Was it Apple Talk? I had a voice synthesizer on my TI when I was a kid. We all did that! Of course we did! But the AppleScript, that's what it was. AppleScript. AppleTalk with the networking and Applescript was oh you can just type in words and you'll be able to program and no! And there was no documentation. It was incredibly difficult and really all we had was basic You know, with basic... How far did you get? You can make a basic game and that's about it. And it took forever! But I could just tell my computer what to do and so you look at the power that we have in phones, in desktops and laptops incredibly powerful but we have been excluded there is no way

26:10 Like I've tried many times, I've tried to learn how to program in Python. You know it's like curly brace, curly brace and I want to shoot myself you know and I copy paste the example and i kind of understand what it's doing and now it just doesn't work so now you have Like Claude Code as a simple example, but there's you know there's over the open AI version and you have What is it? The the grok thing that Elon bought and so he opened codex And you can pretty much say, all right. If you've ever seen any of the pictures that I post about my studio if you look at that if you look closely I'm running an operating system which is GNU Linux I'll say it right for everybody GNU Linux but its the install is

27:03 OMARCHY, O-M-A-R-C-H-Y. And it's really quite simple you download it onto a USB stick, stick in your computer, you know, you tap F1 1,000 times and the BIOS comes up and like I don't know what to do and it says boot from the USB stick if you can get that far then it'll install this computer system and it kind of comes with these agents built in. So I just said, you know, I really want Playout system for my podcast. I have it in my head. I want eight players at the top I want a cart wall on the side with multiple tabs On the left hand because I've been using all different programs to do this with on Macs and Windows so on the left-hand side I wanted I want my file browser just that folder them working in and want to be able to search really quickly For old clips and jingles that people asked for and they built it for me. I did it maybe in 25 minutes

27:58 You know, and the downside of all these programs is you update something and then it'll have a cascading effect of screwing with these programs for some reason if they're not updated. Well, there's all kinds of caveats everywhere. But in essence I created this and it has been working for 8 months maybe 9 going on 9 months now. I've improved little things like for example hey whenever i get the donation spreadsheet its a real pain because then have to go search for the different jingles that people ask for so I made a donation spreadsheet reader literally what I called it Donation Tracker

28:36 And you open up the spreadsheet in this program, which I just told my robot—which is Claude Code in this case—build this. And when you find a jingle in there make sure that I just click on that cell and it loads it up into player into thing that I already made before and he did that so mean this is... That's efficient very efficient. ...and I'm just a numb nut! You know? I'm not a programmer. I didn't have to learn to code Obama And this is, without a doubt this is what the revolution is. And the great thing about it is ultimately you don't need to have Sam Altman or Elon Musk or anybody else involved in it. You can do that with open source with stuff that's freely available I suggest you support these projects wherever you can and and you can just build the experience or the tool or the application that you want

CHAPTER 08 / 32 Discussion

AI Safety Regulations, Open Source vs Corporate Control

The debate over AI safety and government regulation is characterized as a corporate strategy to protect established business models from open-source competition. Industry leaders are accused of using fear-based narratives about biological weapons or cyberattacks to justify restrictive licensing. The hosts encourage parents to provide children with old laptops and open-source tools to ensure they are not left behind in the technological revolution.

ai regulation· open source· sam altman· elon musk· tech industry

29:32 And no one can stop you, no one can tell you oh no that's not the way it should work if you want it to be funky and stupid. You make it that way? To me this is the revolution and that's what Wang is saying correctly so when he makes this statement I think he's correct We have to remind the industry...and I think the dialogue around safety and security is all fantastic If you think about each one of your countries, what is the worst outcome that could happen in this technology industrial revolution? The worst outcome is that you don't take advantage of it.

30:13 That you are left behind. That is the single worst outcome, and that outcome could happen if we talk about the technology with fear, with uncertainty. The leadership talks about it with so much concern and all of the conversations around safety and security It has to be balanced with a lot of conversation about prosperity and what it can do. Yeah, so that's the marketing problem. That's the problem that these guys have created themselves because they want government regulations so you can't just run your own model because you might be a terrorist and create a biological weapon or become a cyber attacker They've done that to protect their business which is unprotectable because open source is here It's taken over And if you got a teenage kid give him an old laptop

31:12 load up Omachi on a thumb drive and say, here go at it. And then program something with when I'm watching was it Quattro the fourth version? It has agents right in there you can load it up. It's pretty intuitive open source ones and you know you can even get an account or open router and use that for free for a little while but it's all very efficient. It's open and this is where your kids need to be. Throw out their phones, delete the chatbots that's the antichrist but the stuff underneath it creates code is amazing and this I believe is the correct prediction We've had the benefit in United States to have built one of the largest infrastructures because of the pro-energy growth and speed

32:04 and the regulatory environments in the United States, we've been able to build out really quite substantially. And you look at what's going on in the United States AI is now generating jobs across every single sector from chip labs to computer plants to AI factories Boy, the number of jobs that we're creating is just hundreds of thousands. And as you know and this year alone were going to invest close to a trillion dollars into the world's into the United States infrastructure and that's generating enormous economic growth and of course a lot of jobs It's gonna be a job creator no technology has ever killed jobs This is not gonna be it That's bullcrap from these guys trying to protect their businesses Don't buy into it

32:48 With Omachi, the only limit is your imagination. I need a whole end of show mix of that! But Omachi...I mean i've been using Linux for it. I'm sorry GNU or Linux whenever you say Linux you get these... Richard Stallman comes out of the closet and says what are ya doing? He just bops me over the head Or Cotton Gin or someone in the troll room Yes Um..Omachi It really is revolutionary how well it works out of the box. I've been running on all my computers, it's fantastic!

33:25 And you don't need anything from Silicon Valley at all, at all. But hey! You run a small business? Create your own system that will help you with whatever you can dream up. You can make it. Yeah. You could create your own tracking system, your own reordering system... All of it! ...that's catered to you and then even your own customer service system like this is how I like to reach out to my customers there there is really It is the sky's the limit with a lot of this stuff, depending on how it's used. Are they really teaching people, though how to use it correctly? No! I see these courses and stuff like learn AI in seven days. And I'm like, I don't think they're really teaching you. No it's even worse the big computer companies like Google is number one used to be Apple but Google has infiltrated our education system with Chromebooks Oh yeah Like oh yeah you got to use this and you gotta use that Now if you just want to get your feet wet

CHAPTER 09 / 32 Discussion

XAI Grokbot, Personal AI Agents and Productivity

XAI's Grokbot application is discussed as a cloud-based tool for creating automated agents to perform tasks like monitoring YouTube videos or processing spreadsheets. One host details a personal workflow using local AI agents to transcribe audio and automatically cut podcast clips, significantly increasing production efficiency. While acknowledging the utility of these tools, the hosts warn against the "anti-Christ" nature of centralized chatbots compared to local hardware solutions.

xai· grokbot· elon musk· productivity· automation

34:21 with what is possible. I don't like Grok bot and all that stuff, but or Grok itself but XAI came out with literally something called grokbot and it's an application you download it and you get a computer in the cloud, okay? Which is why I don't like it because you can use the computer on your desktop that you own. But if we just want to see what's possible and you can create these little bots and you say okay this but what you're supposed to do bot is you're supposed to look for me of this particular YouTube video with this content in it and let me know when it's there and make a clip just as an example. You can also say

35:05 Now, here's another bot and whenever I get an email with this spreadsheet. I want you to get the totals and do something with it." You can literally program that computer in the cloud in the sky which you can even see the screen in this application to do that stuff. It's fun to kind of play with it and see how it works. The downside of course is It's not yours. You got to pay for it eventually and it's not yours, isn't the cloud and then they could go away could break you know Elon could change his mind whatever but that is the essence of what you can do and I have four my own agents open source running all the time

35:44 On my own hardware at home, and it's changed my life. It has changed My life I'm gonna have to do an comic strip blogger keeps wanting me to do an interview for this AI archwit or wizard YouTube channel which is just so annoying but I think I want to show how I have these these my robots working to cut clips a I mean, it's really astounding. Yeah, I spent hours cutting clips this morning and i'm sitting there wondering how could this be more efficient because you have to find the clip send the link then you download it and then you have to pull it into the editor cut it on each side make sure the levels are good dump it out and give it a name yeah so times 50 exactly So I got over 100 clips

36:30 Not that I'm going to play them all. That's what's gonna happen though, you're gonna have 120 clips and you're gonna have 150 clips No no because i've already told my robot it was out of control but you know I was vaping and I was holding the baby so you know I was busy with other things not paying attention the robot was going nuts but I literally say okay here's Jensen Wang its 20 minutes he sat with Lutnick I want him to pull out a couple clips for me It goes in first thing it does is gets a transcript So it downloads the audio lo-fi, gets a transcript. Then it makes decisions now I've taught at this over time many many months you know because they can't actually hear anything it can't hear when someone you know is breathing in to get into the next sentence or sometimes people just speak weirdly and so would make these cuts in the wrong places It's gotten to the point where

37:22 it will create 50 clips for me within half an hour, just based on links I've given it. And then the longest amount of time is me listening to every single clip it made maybe 10% I have to fix and that fix is teaching it to do something so think of the productivity gain that I've gotten. I have now time to sit with my granddaughter thanks to this technology. And vape! And vape which is double bonus So here's, I think is this the final clip? Oh can you send are you able to send the audio directly to your earbuds your hearing aid.

38:02 Oh yeah, no. Well I use a different program called Obsidian which is you know it's like you kind of save files into it It's like a Dropbox only a little more structured so it has a version of that Dropbox program on my computer at home and so it cuts these clips and they just show up in a folder And I can listen to them right there on the phone I'm telling you, this stuff is amazing. The chatbot stuff again anti-Christ completely and i am not even joking about that That is the worst and they're moving away from it then They are... You know that was the parlor trick that got it all going but once they saw that there's no money in that And its way too expensive to run that They.. It was really anthropic

38:52 Claude that moved to code, they'd really focused on that. And that's the revolution! There is no other revolution in artificial intelligence than you as a mere mortal being able to create your own applications on your own computer. That's it! If something else comes along I'll let you know... Robots? Humanoids? Okay sure whatever fix the battery life first Speaking of robots, I got an Elon clip on a billion robots. It came out a couple days ago Did you hear this one? Let me see where is it? Elon Elon on 1 billion robots when you make the robots the robots will The robots will start manufacturing the robots so you get a recursive effect So it's also very very slowly but then grows at explosive rate

CHAPTER 10 / 32 Discussion

Elon Musk, Humanoid Robot Productivity Predictions

Elon Musk predicts that within ten years, there will be over one billion humanoid robots with five times the productivity of a human. The hosts analyze the concept of recursive software development—where software writes itself—but remain skeptical of Musk's timeline given past unfulfilled promises regarding self-driving technology. A humorous comparison is made to the Shark vacuum robot, which the hosts note is already a functional, albeit limited, household robot.

elon musk· humanoid robots· tesla bot· productivity· automation

39:45 So if you say like 10 years from now, I would say there are well over a billion humanoid robots. And the productivity per robot will be probably five times that of a human meaning being that the productivity in ten years of humanoid robots and i think this is conservative estimate by the way This one I wouldn't be willing to put serious money betting on That there will at least 1 billion robots in ten year and that those robots will be at least five times the output of a human, meaning the billion humanoid robots will be more productive than all humans combined. Okay so he's mixing a lot of metaphors here and he's talking like Elon which is always bullcrap you know oh self-driving will be here in 1995 whatever okay So yeah maybe but the metaphor of recursive software development

40:38 has been a dream of software developers forever. That your own software will write itself? The software will write itself, to some degree there is some of that but you know there's just no I've seen no evidence that you can let it go and it creates everything perfectly and it's good to go in fact I've seen the opposite of that When you remove the human knowledge from even the high level of what is being created So far it hasn't worked out very well when he says robots. I'm not quite sure what he means

41:16 So, you know the robots will create their... Well that's kind of happening just in software. Will robots be building robots? There are good robots out there I've had a robot in my house for five years and I love it It is called the Shark Vacuum And its a fantastic robot One application does a great job You know, after five years four years time for a new one. They're half the price is fantastic Yeah, that's monitoring your conversations Of course it is It's mapped the entire house sent off to China So when the military age men from China who are now in sleeper cells when they come to take me and my wife They'll know exactly what the layout of the houses get Adam Curry checkbox now

42:08 But this idea, you know... To me the psyop of these robots fighting each other and running marathon races which actually I think the Chinese seem to be kind of excited about what can be done with robotics and artificial intelligence. And, you know here we've just gone into this sucks it's all psyops gonna take our jobs away with data centers down a good. This is an incredible opportunity for America and I don't know if we're going to pull people out of this downward spiral that we're in about this stuff. And it's their own fault for being such a-holes about so dangerous we can even give it to you. Yeah oh hi darling

CHAPTER 11 / 32 Discussion

Data Center Expansion, Economic Impact and Noise Issues

The expansion of data centers in the United States is presented as a potential economic revitalizer for small towns, providing significant tax revenue and jobs for the working class. The hosts address concerns about noise pollution, clarifying that modern liquid-cooled GPU facilities are much quieter than older air-cooled Bitcoin mining operations. Loudoun County, Virginia, is cited as a successful example of high-density data center integration in a high-income area.

data centers· loudoun county· liquid cooling· bitcoin mining· infrastructure

42:56 And you're saying that from the creator perspective, not even the user perspective. No! Which is very kind of down on AI because I don't think they've been... when they roll this stuff out they don't give you a good user manual to put it together case in point we got some lights the other day and there's a front attachment for a scrim that you put on the front A scrim? And a scrim which would be like a piece of cloth to kinda dampen the light Oh okay yeah i gotcha So it's got this piece that you push it in and then you turn it. And I couldn't get this thing for the life of me to fit, and they're like, It's supposed to fit, it's supposed to fit." Well, I had to figure out that I had to take the little handle off that you're supposed to use to make it fit better. You have to take that off. Then there are two pieces on the bracket that you have to remove the top one, and then it will fit but there is nothing in the directions that are telling you this. That's the problem. They don't show... Like here's a piece just like here's the equipment go use it

43:53 And we're not gonna you have to figure it out yourself on how to do it or ask the AI chatbot how to do it hmm the a was is a A16 a 16 just like man they do podcasting his podcast network had a couple guys talking about data centers and I think, I agree with their stance on this stuff. And this is what President Trump is saying and of course everyone hates him right now. His war of choice and everything's all messed up and it's no good and he's orange but I really think that there's something to this revitalizing

44:39 the working class, at least for the next few years in the United States by building data centers of which we already have 4700. Everybody might be out a job like that Eliezer Yudkowsky guy says if we build it everyone will die and it's like how about if we build it? Like we're going to cure cancer We're all gonna live forever I thought one of the best things Dario said was what we need to do is stop talking about curing cancer actually cure cancer, actually make breakthroughs. But just somebody like that my favorite line in the Bible is the truth shall set you free yes but the only person who can the only group that can tell the AI industry's truth is the AI industry they need to just start telling the truth when we

45:24 Okay, you're opposed to data centers. Well you know what? It's probably the best thing that has ever happened to working class Americans! Yeah exactly You know it's like going to college might be significantly NPV negative now because you can go learn how to be an electrician a plumber and HVAC tech ungodly amounts of money. So this has been amazing for working class Americans, we now have a lot of data that particularly with behind the meter power generation when a data center goes in it transforms the town like tax revenue it doesn't double at like 10x and is revitalizing all of these dying small towns all over America

46:08 Yeah, that's kind of what your penetration tester was talking about. Although I think a good idea is to get a bond and have them post the bond because a lot of them will go out of business. But yeah it's a catch-all but you know the next billionaire is going to be the guy who can take the clip that says data center sounds like this and make it quiet so you should play that people can hear what a data center sounds like across the street from your house. Wait do you have a clip of that? Oh yes called Data Center Sounds Like This Okay here we go And then it's gonna pan over and there's a house you can hear go down just a little bit because of the directional mic. Now if you could figure out how to make those things quiet, you're going to make $1 billion easily

46:54 Well, that's all but placement obviously. You know these guys talked about Loudoun County Virginia which is million dollar homes My favorite is you know Loudoun County Virginia which is like the highest per capita income zip code in the US or county in the US and it has the highest density of data centers, and they make a tremendous amount of tax revenue from data centers. We should do this everywhere." Yeah well it's actually very funny someone very opposed to data center said oh you're for data centers I'd like to see them put in the highest income zip code and the highest you know income county

47:31 Actually, the highest income zip code in America and the highest-income county has the highest per capita concentration of data centers. So we've done that and it worked out really well! You know I had a data center in 2002 in Amsterdam, The Netherlands... The datacenter noise that you're hearing? That's not your typical datacenter housing computers running GPUs That data center is a typical Bitcoin mining operation from couple years ago because they didn't need to liquid cool them. Now everything's liquid cooled, which is also not taking all your water and they basically just had a hole in the roof and just sucked the air from outside and blew it out of the top. That's what those noisy data centers are. They're Bitcoin miners

48:28 So all of that is not in play anymore. These data centers that just run GPUs, they're not... you know the liquid cooling is silent When they're talking about the tax revenue and the amount of money they make for the region, my friend, they have a neighborhood. They're going to bulldoze this entire neighborhood of beautiful huge homes and give everybody around $4 million per house so that could build more data centers because around them is nothing but data centers." You're right it doesn't sound like what we just played with the data center sounds like this. No it doesn't. Anyways, that was my AI data center story for today. I just wanted to get it out there.

49:17 Stay away from them, keep them away from your kids. But give your kids an old laptop and tell them to install Omachi and work on some... build something with a harness as it's called with an agent. Build something! And you'll see this has huge potential Yeah, I'm gonna get my son working on that. I just pulled up the website a little bit ago My oldest son and probably my second son too he's 16 and he's He's probably the smartest in the family, if you ask me. He takes after his dad a lot and we don't always see eye to eye but I think he's probably got... it's easy for him to do things, schools no problem life. You need more obstacles in your way to overcome because what happens is you think life's always easy and then all of a sudden

Sheboygan Wisconsin, Flock Safety Data Controversy

The city of Sheboygan, Wisconsin, moved to cancel its contract with Flock Safety after the company attempted to sell the city five years of traffic speed and movement data captured by its own cameras. Local law enforcement expressed a loss of trust in the system due to undisclosed data collection and reports of officers nationwide misusing the surveillance tools for personal reasons. The segment includes a brief appreciation for the geography and culture of Wisconsin.

sheboygan· wisconsin· flock safety· privacy· data retention

50:16 you get your head spun around. Now I have a clip, you were talking about the flock cameras and on the flock website when you go to their website it says that they were keeping the information for 30 days and now they're like oh no we're only keeping the license plate data for seven well the city of Sheboygan is deflocking their area You hear how long they have the data, all this data that they've kept. It's amazing to me. Okay you're gonna have to help me with which... Oh sorry Sheboygan deflocking. Sheboygan? Sheboygan I think it was in Wisconsin. Sheboygan! Ah of course Sheboygan! Block Safety tried to sell traffic data to the city of Sheboygan that had been captured by Sheboygan own flock camera. Wait a minute so they put them down and then make the deal

51:05 They try to sell it after they've installed the flocks? They just went and installed the flocks, and they're like hey we have this. And I think they had already inked a deal to do this but then i think when they saw how much data they had they kind of freaked out. Block safety tried to sell traffic data to the city of Sheboygan that had been captured by Sheboygan's own flock cameras. Fox 6 investigator Brian Polson is here with more breaking news about this embattled company known for its license plates. You guys remember last week we talked about this, the company that's known for scanning these license plates? Well they covered up City of Sheboygan covered up I should say their flock cameras said they were working to cancel their contract with the company well now we know why

51:45 And the reason for that, Mayor Eric Sorensen telling the Fox 6 investigators earlier this summer a Flock sales rep emailed the city's engineering department offering to sell the city five years worth of data on traffic speeds and movements captured by those Flock cameras. That means Sheboygan's Flock cameras have been tracking your driving speeds and movement patterns something the city says Flock never told them about Flock, of course already facing nationwide backlash over officers misusing the data for personal reasons like stalking romantic partners. Chief Zempel said this new level of undisclosed data collection undermines his trust in the system and he's not alone yesterday. Kenosha Police Chief Patrick Patton told me Sheboygan experience is part of a reason Kenosha is moving on from flock as well I think it's just fun to say she boy again boy again she boy again is just a fun name

52:36 Wisconsin is a very nice state if you've never been there. Very green, so much green and just drive around this place and I was there it was during the primaries for 2016 and just a beautiful state in Appleton, Wisconsin just felt like a nice small town if you want to small-town atmosphere they have a nice small town then they have the outer loop areas that are kind of suburban but it just had It had a very cool feel and I just thought i should shout out to the Wisconsinites out there. We have them, we have people in Sheboygan in fact! Yes exactly. Gitmo Nation is big and bad and worldwide now... it's probably cold in the winter though no it's very cold very cold you um this is this is kind of tripping me out Rob do what well i'm looking at your clip list and you actually have titled three clips here

CHAPTER 13 / 32 Discussion

Garland Favarito, Georgia Election Lawsuit Analysis

Investigator Garland Favarito analyzes legal rulings in Georgia regarding mail-in ballots, accusing certain judges of using stalling tactics to influence the upcoming elections. The discussion focuses on the requirement for "particularized injury" in civil court and how the Georgia Supreme Court has overturned previous injunctions. The hosts question the legal qualifications of federally appointed judges who may rule based on political motives rather than established law.

garland favarito· georgia· 2020 election· mail-in ballots· supreme court

53:31 with the suffix anal. Well that was an ode to John C Dvorak, well I think you might as well get into these clips because the fact that you have some anal clips is just this analysis must be fantastic So this is, I believe his full name is Garland Favarito. And I've interviewed him one time he's an investigator out in Georgia and he has been looking at the shenanigans going on in Georgia since the 2020 election. Right. When you talk to this guy, he is a walking encyclopedia. He just bop-bop-bop-bop-bop-bop. What he's talking to Christy Lee, a former reporter she was at Infowars a few years ago she moved on

54:13 I believe this is a Lindell TV clip. So she's working for Lindell TV where they allow you to put your opinions out in your interviewing, where they don't always do that in other places. But what they're talking about is the ruling with the mail-in ballots and how that was just a stalling tactic basically by the judge because she kept making these rulings and then they'd have to go to the Supreme Court and the Supreme Court would rule knock it back down, then she'd do another ruling. And he's basically analyzed her pattern at the end of it, he said she's basically a partisan hack trying to do anything to delay this. So like we covered last show, well they're not going to have time the postal service is not going to have time to do this because oh it just happened now but there are- This happened back in March when Trump first tried to get the postal service in on this so they did have time Now they might not have time now because we're into September and maybe there's a final ruling in you know two or three weeks and then you know you're a month away from the election so yeah you have to

55:13 You have to get this stuff, especially when you're dealing with this amount of these large databases. But yeah, this is Garland Favarito we'll start with ruling one. anal. And her rulings, which have been overturned by the Georgia Supreme Court date back months. And now she's basically given her political friends, the 23 Democrat AGs some ammunition to say well oh you know there is not enough time so on and so on. Well the reason there is not enough time is exactly what you just said Christy she created the chaos

56:12 It wasn't President Trump, but in making false rulings that had to be overturned by the United States Supreme Court. She is the one who delayed everything for months and basically created the chaos. Now correct me if I'm wrong Rob, but judges even federally approved judges they don't have to be lawyers or necessarily schools in law do they? No, in fact it's okay for some of these judges who aren't lawyers to own businesses where they're sending their inmates. The people that hit the right right exactly but be a bit people don't understand that thing Oh well you know federal judge judge knows what they're doing But there's that's far from it I remember we were much more involved in local politics than ever was living in Fredericksburg but I saw who was running for

57:12 For Gillespie County judge, I'm like she can run? No. No no no! I don't want her a judge of anything you know it was kind of weird i didn't really even realize that and so this is the same with the federally appointed judges So then they rule by feelings is what you end up getting. Pretty much, yeah! Yeah so and then he goes on through this and just explaining how the things she's doing... You have to actually have a damage before you can make these rulings that she made. Right, you have to be hurt. You have to show on the doll where you were hurt before you can do anything like that. And right and she's ruling before these judgments even come in or before the announcements even come in of these pro

57:57 program so before trump even did this she was already had her thing ready and to to. I guess spring it on them to kind of you know she's playing the tar baby game she's throwing babies out there to get people caught up in him and you know obviously is working so it's a strategy that they're gonna keep doing she speculated the claims that the state AGs have. There's no evidence that- No evidence, no evidence! ...the claims were true because in any court of law you have to have what they call a particularized injury so you have to have a specific injury that you are suing about well... The rule has never been implemented and in fact when they filed the case the rule hadn't even been published

58:46 And there's no way she has to know that that was an illegitimate ruling in the first place. So she is using her political motives rather than actually ruling on facts and evidence. But isn't this what eventually went to the Supreme Court? The Supreme Court said, you know, there was no harm so it doesn't count right now or is this after all of that? Then he explains how The Supreme Court basically admonished her and told her, they gave her a lecture and told her there's six different ways that this your argument is wrong. You have to fill these out. And at this point you would think the Supreme Court could go hey now we're just taking away your judgeship because now you're just wasting everyone's time I don't know what you do with some of these judges because it's like they can't be touched and they're just allowed to muck up the works. I mean you have to have basics

59:41 to move these things forward. It's like a frivolous lawsuit, yeah. And she was just actually admonished up one side and down the other by the Supreme Court over that very thing they listed like six different types of speculations she would have to do to reach the conclusion that she reached in the initial injunction And that was, of course each one of the six would throw the case out because you have to have a concrete particularized injury which is what they explained to her. That's something that literally every lawyer out of law school

1:00:23 law school knows that you have to have a concrete particularized injury to sue in civil court. So it's not a matter of her being stupid, I think it has to be a matter of her being corrupt. Yeah. Being political is all about the mid-terms and obviously there are at least 26 states who don't want this to happen and I presume most of them are Democrat states but I'm not even so sure. Nevada just pulled a bunch of people off the rolls and I think it's like 400,000 or something. Really? Yeah, I think it was Nevada. I guarantee you if you just gave me the voter rolls which is just a spreadsheet You can get it They have to give it to you If he asked for it I could vibe code this in a day Just give me an old IBM laptop Give me a ThinkPad I'm sure I can do it I got a couple clips on this

CHAPTER 14 / 32 Discussion

USPS Whistleblower, Mail-In Ballot IT System Concerns

An anonymous whistleblower represented by Whistleblower Aid raised concerns about a "secretive and rushed" process at the U.S. Postal Service to implement new IT systems for verifying federal mail ballots. Critics argue the nine-month rollout is being compressed into a much shorter timeframe, potentially leading to catastrophic failure during the midterm elections. The hosts debate whether these technical hurdles are accidental bugs or intentional features designed to disrupt the voting process.

usps· jamie raskin· mail-in voting· whistleblower· it systems

1:01:17 Because of course, Ms. Now, they just keep on hyping up the Jamie Raskin whistleblower who is not really a whistleblower because nothing illegal has been done The so-called whistleblower who was anonymous hiding behind whistlebloweraid.org is just saying, well you know the project's no good man. With just 59 days now to go before the midterm elections no less this week an anonymous federal whistleblower came forward with a warning about...you guessed it this very same problem The whistleblower alleges that the US Postal Service is moving forward

1:01:58 with a quote secretive rushed chaotic and fundamentally flawed process to implement Trump's order on mail-in voting. You just have to understand that they're talking about a whistleblower there's no whistleblower what is the crime here it's rushed? That's not a crime so you're not a whistleblower, someone saying something in this... He got an opinion! I got an opinion mate! Hey man thats like your opinion! I've got an opinion about this man It would require states to give the Postal Service lists of voters approved to receive mail-in ballots. This is not a requirement, it's a requirement for the state to give that to anyone who asks for it And according to this whistleblower that includes quote... No one has interviewed The Whistleblower I might point out. There was a letter that went to Jamie Raskin Was it Raskin?

1:02:45 It was Raskin wasn't it? Well that's who you mentioned. Was it Raskin or... No, no! It might have been the other guy from Connecticut. The guy looks like his skin is leathery. Blumenthal, right. Now I do have a clip of Raskin because he's in on it But they haven't interviewed the so-called whistleblower. It's just a letter that was sent on behalf of the so called whistleblower to Blumenthal's office and no, they're just talking out of their collective butts. Quote, the creation and implementation of an entirely new and untested set of IT systems including the Federal Ballot Mail Portal. Hold my beer! Hold my beer I'm gonna vibe code that for you A system designed to verify federal mail ballots What could go wrong? Nothing

1:03:37 It'll work. Cloud Codes got it handled, man! According to the report an ordinary process of this scale could take up to nine months... ...to a year but the whistleblower says it appears the USPS Quote discarded discarded best practices to speed up the project for a September 1st rollout I think you say that the other day like Elon's probably gonna get pulled a Elon build that for me just build I think he's definitely thinking on it. I mean, I've no information knowing either way But that's my that's my Redbook prediction dude we can do this with grock bot okay? Just watch it'll be fine You know what I know what the warning said hmm Well, it's dramatic. You know what the warning said? You want to know what the warning said? What is it? Catastrophic failure which could derail the midterm elections

1:04:24 No, it might delay mail-in ballots coming in but we wait weeks for those anyway. That's how we win elections! I don't see how it will derail anything. Importantly the whistleblower also alleges that the Postal Service stepped out of line by continuing to work on this system during an ongoing legal battle. Federal Judge Indira Talwani has already temporarily blocked key parts of the mail and ballot rule and she extended that block... Is that the lady who just appeared? Oh yeah, that's her okay Again, last night as ex- What's that? Tawalny. Tawalny? Yeah, Tawalny. T A L W A N I The administration appealed that within hours

1:05:02 In arguments the day before, Talwani pressed the Justice Department asking quote so we're going to do a test run on this election? Oh my goodness. She added we're not playing an intellectual puzzle game We are talking about people's right to vote No they have the right to vote! We're only gonna test a vaccine on 300 million people what could go wrong Do you guys know that this is all happening as the first round of ballots were sent out this week? Oh no! It's bad enough that we might have a technological disaster ahead. One that can prevent millions of Americans from voting, but that has taken a whole new level when you remember what the president seems hell-bent on doing. Restricting the vote in November so it makes me think if The Whistleblower was right when they said it raises questions about whether catastrophic failure

1:05:51 would be a feature rather than a bug. Now that's an interesting point, I kind of like that so... And then you go we can't have this uh we can't have the mail-in ballots anymore because it's a catastrophic failure and then it could be a catastrophic failure So here's guess where Judge Tawalny went to school? Where do you think she got her Juris Doctor? She is a lawyer, where do you think she got it from? Berkeley UC Berkeley What did you look at? 100% So here's what could go wrong. I mean ordinarily In past elections when you mail ballots state will go they'll print out the balance to have them printed and they'll go in Batches right does not you know wave a lot of the million ten million hundred million vouchers show up, right They take trucks they take printers so

Ballot Verification Errors, VA Health System Comparison

Technical issues with barcode readability and signature verification in Maricopa County and Georgia are compared to the troubled electronic health record modernization at the Department of Veterans Affairs. The VA project reportedly caused thousands of cases of harm and several deaths due to software glitches like disappearing prescriptions. The hosts use this as a cautionary tale for implementing complex, unproven technology in critical government functions like voting.

maricopa county· signature verification· veterans affairs· gao· software failure

1:06:40 States would go down and they would take a batch, 10 thousand ballots and they'd deliver them. Right? Yeah we saw that happen 4 in the morning! We'll deliver them to you now And ordinarily after printing out a standard manifest like you do for any mailing You put it on top of your ticket, drop it off, you're done Now the rule has a number of steps At the end of all these other steps where you are printing things comparing things against lists getting permission to bring these ballots I'm not at the very end Wait a minute, I would expect this printing things verified against lists to already be in place but that seems to me something new they just thought wow we have to do that now? We got to verify against the list. Another spot check and any failure of a ballot to read those barcodes could be smudged equipment has certain error rates if there's a failure for the sampling they test the whole thing goes back

1:07:30 And what ProPublica... Wait a minute, wait. Who says the whole thing has to go? But you mean I don't understand Well when they do read ballots on some of these at least in Georgia They showed this of the lady putting ballots in she wouldn't quite finish it back She get to like 98 and there be an error and then she'd run them again Yeah but if they don't reset the number those get added It just keeps so instead of 100 or set up 100 ballots You get 198 balance So that's your feature Not a bug. That's your feature right there, that's your guy looking at the Chad, the hanging Chad photo So what he is saying is hey that really sucks instead of being able to run them twice with a smudge barcode now we can only run them once? Oh no! The whole thing goes back

1:08:13 And what ProPublica indicated in reporting recently is that Maricopa County had raised concerns about this because they have tranches of a million ballots that go out in these mailings, right? So a million ballots could go to the post office. They check a few one barcode's not readable maybe their machine's not working maybe it smudged the whole thing goes back They have to do the whole thing again. Print it, print out manifesto make sure the manifests are approved and then bring it all back again so It's really uh... It seems just seems to me that something as important as votes and ballots should be correct And so if it's incorrect

1:08:52 Sorry, yeah. You got to do it over again and why is this such a chore? Why is this so horrible like the The autograph the signature verification they were looking at that in some of these states and they would run it at like 98 DPI So you'd have this crappy-looking Signature but then they would try to compare it to the signature And they were just like letting them through letting him through and even those you could tell oh Those signatures don't match because people were putting the images out there. I think that happened in Arizona, uh...in the last couple of elections. So the manifesto approved and then bring it all back again so it's really a systemically catastrophic potentially allows for catastrophic failure. It allows for catastrophic failure? I don't know if its catastrophic

1:09:39 It's not all, not all the votes are mail-in. But then Emma's now… they suddenly like to compare this to some other problem, some other government system that was being built I might point out during the Biden administration. The Department of Veterans Affairs is another example. Oh yeah, Veteran Affairs and it's massive ongoing electronic health modernization project. It seems like a little different than ballots but okay Well there is pretty straightforward you update the old one use critical software to store and track veterans health information but the rollout has been not so simple

1:10:23 According to the Washington Post, early deployments of this system had a host of issues including disappearing notes prescriptions logged with wrong dosages. Okay I just want you listen to the comparison because you know where this is going if we don't do these votes right people will die and there was a 2023 FOIA disclosure that revealed that the system played a role in more than 4400 cases of known harms ranging from minor it says to catastrophic including six different deaths That project was halted briefly in 2023 with a VA official overseeing the effort admitting this, quote for the past few years we've tried to fix this plane while flying it. But now deployment of the program... I just want to vote! That's exactly the same thing we're doing here. We're fixing the plane while flying it

1:11:13 But now deployment of the program has resumed. The VA says the software issues have been addressed, but just this week the Government Accountability Office told Congress that the VA has only addressed four of their 18 concerns with the technology All right, all right. What are you texting me Rob do? Oh I just text you a picture of a guy looking at a hanging shed His glasses aren't even good enough He's got to raise the glasses and look at it You think you know the Associated Press photographers like don't raise your glasses. I remember I was open the eyes I think I was in I think I was in in Holland or

CHAPTER 16 / 32 Discussion

Iran Conflict, Economic Sanctions and Oil Revenue

The ongoing conflict with Iran is discussed in the context of economic "choke outs" and the targeting of Iranian oil revenue. Trump advisor Scott Besant and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick describe efforts to close down cash houses in Dubai and Qatar that facilitate Iranian trade in Chinese currency (RMB). The hosts critique the administration's messaging regarding service member casualties and the duration of the military engagement.

iran· donald trump· howard lutnick· scott besant· oil prices

1:11:53 When that and I remember it was like two weeks, and they couldn't figure it out. Two weeks? That's nothing now! You know, three four weeks would take as long as you want... It's a month to do the merit per primary. Exactly So the president has not helped him his own He is not helping himself with this Iran situation which as you know I still think it's a good idea, but... It's like blowing up freighters? No. Cargo ships? That was interesting! Yeah well yeah i think just stopping Iran's choke hold on that and stopping the cash flow from the revenue from all that, I think that's a good idea but this

1:12:37 You know, the whole administration they bumble around like keystone cops from time to time. Here's an example into the Iran war seventh month with no end in sight President Trump declaring this week The conflict is quote small potatoes. Yes, this is not good. This is not but 18 US service members have died, nearly 800 have been wounded and a conflict the president said would only last four to six weeks. It certainly doesn't feel like small potatoes. 18 service members have died we're seeing record long deployments you initially said this was... Record long? Why is it record long? The 82nd airborne is now being sent to Vietnam How long were in Vietnam No can someone please go to the President and say stop that

1:13:19 Stop. Sir, a deployment is something completely different than what's been rolling out for a year Why would you even make that comparison? This is dumb We're seeing records of how long Lincoln was out for more than 250 days at sea The president making those comments as he defended Vice President J.D. Vance who earlier in the week claimed it wasn't a war I wouldn't call it a war Right now there is no active shooting. This week Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick issued an apology after he says he misspoke when he forgot those 18 Americans who have died I think the way the president is playing Iran right, there's not- There haven't been American deaths it's really just an economic choke out which the administration is now executing more broadly. Lutnick later saying he was thinking about the operation in Venezuela

1:14:09 Come on, give these guys the hook. That is just so dumb We gotta keep him on. Ludnic's a good guy He's a friend I wish they could just be honest and say hey Scott Besant is kind of honest. He's at least telling people what it's about, about the... I have a Besant clip on China-Iran relationship yeah and it talks about the banking and what they're going after I think they just went after a bank in Qatar First of all, Iran only has about 30 million barrels of oil or crude on the waters now. So that's a minimal amount that I think somehow this narrative erupted that well if China is not on board what we've had very productive quiet conversations here with the Chinese and The other thing too is the real problem

1:15:03 The Chinese pay the Iranians in RMB. The RMB comes back to the Gulf region, and whether it is through neighbors' shipping that supplies over or whether it is through banks such as the one we put out of business in Dubai on Friday... Dubai, yeah. ...or whether it is the cash houses those are being closed down so when that money cannot be converted into dollars then the regime will starve Yeah, and everyone who is a part of the cash flows of the regime which is drugs and terror and hookers and all kinds of stuff. Which is good but they're bumbling! And then so we know that CIA Ratcliffe director of CIA went to Moscow

CHAPTER 17 / 32 Discussion

Ukraine War Diplomacy, Kushner and Whitkoff Envoys

Donald Trump is reportedly sending Jared Kushner and Steve Whitkoff as special envoys to Kiev and Moscow to present a proposal for ending the war in Ukraine. This follows a quiet visit by CIA Director Ratcliffe to Moscow to warn against further escalation. The hosts discuss the difficulty of breaking through "generational warfare" and the impact of infrastructure destruction on global energy prices.

jared kushner· steve whitkoff· ukraine· russia· vladimir putin

1:15:50 Did some kind of talk we don't know exactly what the discussion was, but obviously it's got to be about ending this this kerfuffle With Ukraine because you know Europe is just pushing and pushing and pushing The end you know they want every drone To be a Russian drone that is trying to blow stuff up They really want this war to escalate And they want Russia to take that first step as far as I can see then so I think Trump has something in the works, but then this is how he goes about talking about it. We heard President Trump earlier today say that he is sending Special Envoy Steve Whitkoff and his son-in-law Jared Kushner to Russia and Ukraine to present this proposal to end the war there. Let's take a listen

1:16:40 Jared Kushner and Steve Whitcuff are expected to go to Kiev in Moscow. Are they bringing with them new proposals? No, they're bringing with them a proposal to end the war because I ended eight wars- The same war? I hope you're proud of me. I ended eight wars. I get no credit for it. I ended eight wars. Did I get the Nobel Prize? I invented podcasting. Do I get an award? No, Adam Carolla gets the credit! Imagine if I said that all the time... So, yeah. Six trips to Moscow and now to Kiev... Well the two envoys are really just trying to revive attempt to revive long-stalled diplomacy we don't know that there's actually anything new in the proposal the president is having them bring to Moscow remember it was just last week the CIA director was in Moscow with a warning for Vladimir Putin do not escalate and do not get more aggressive against other European countries that are in NATO but what is significant here

1:17:39 what we do know has changed is the situation on the ground. Ukraine has gained some momentum that has changed President Trump's thinking about President Zelensky, he's a bit warmer towards him. Really? I haven't heard any warmer towards him! Thinks he's a winner and not a loser as you might have heard him referring to in the past But what we know with that is that just getting Steve Whitkoff and Jared Kushner on a plane to Kiev- Kiev. Is an achievement in of itself, there have been at least half dozen trips to Moscow carried out by Steve Whitkoff there have been zero to Ukraine. The last high level official that I know off was the Secretary of the Army when he went last November to try to learn from Ukraine that Secretary of the Army Dan Driscoll no longer in the Trump administration.

1:18:27 I don't know. The main, I definitely think that there's been messages going out like hey don't mess Don't do it. Don't blow up something in Europe and don't react when they say that you did it Right yeah, the quadcopter with the faulty detonator Yeah because these guys are crazy! The Europeans are crazy Well, we know why. They need the money and that's the way they get the money and so yeah there going to try to keep this going and they've been doing it I think Trump got in he was like oh i'll be able make a phone call and get this thing started I don't think you realized who is going up against He's gone up against generational warfare Yes And these people love it! Of course all of this has only... You know blowing up Russian infrastructure has

1:19:18 that has just pushed the price of oil up even further. Which really screws screws up general Besson's promise, but I'm not gonna make a promise about when it's going to return to $3 What I will say is that we have to remember. Why are we doing this number one? It said Iran never has a nuclear weapon and number two what we're doing right now is protecting commercial shipping in order to ensure that we don't have a worldwide energy crisis the only reason the only reason We do not have a worldwide energy crisis is because of the leadership of the president, but also because of the fine work of our military from Pete Hexeth on down. But the Iranians are doing what the Iranians do I think that they're losing their capabilities by the day

CHAPTER 18 / 32 Discussion

Rising Diesel Prices, Impact on Trucking Industry

Diesel fuel prices have reached record highs, significantly increasing the weekly operating costs for independent truck drivers and logistics companies. These costs are being passed on to consumers, contributing to broader inflation in the price of goods. The hosts discuss personal experiences with fuel costs and the differences in vehicle performance when using ethanol-free gasoline.

diesel fuel· inflation· trucking· logistics· fuel prices

1:20:02 I think they're realizing by the way that their control over the Strait of Hormuz is effectively gone. Right, but I know a gallon of gas here is about $12. Oh my gosh! We paid...I paid and it's gone up so in the beginning of last week it was 329 and by the end of the week it was 368

1:20:38 Same gas station. Okay, you're taking regular? You're not taking premium? Oh yeah no that's all I take and i don't buy into that 93 octane although if ever go by a Bucky's I get the no-octane at all it's got no ethanol in it it's like the ethanol free gas oh and how does that drive is it fast It feels like I have a little more power and I definitely get maybe one to two miles per hour. And, I'm a V8 truck so I get one to two miles per hour extra in the mileage. Yeah...I once had the hydroxy booster! I'm telling you that thing works. Diesel helps fuel the American economy, powering the nation's truck fleet that transports almost everything we buy so when diesel prices rise businesses pass it on to consumers who ultimately pay the price

1:21:29 These days, truck driver Carlos Freight gets sticker shock every time he fills up. It's getting rough to do this job. Diesel hit an all-time high this week now more than $2 above where it was when the war with Iran began This time last year we were just about in a range of 8000 dollars as of now We're looking at about 12 to 15 thousand dollars a week Wow! In diesel expenses Yeah, that's a whole and that gets passed on to the customer it does it does I don't know. No I don't know I still things are going up And no hey we got the price of eggs down

CHAPTER 19 / 32 Discussion

Trucking School Crackdown, English Proficiency Fraud

The Department of Transportation executed an emergency shutdown of 110 driving schools and 160 additional training facilities for widespread fraud. Investigations revealed that schools were certifying thousands of drivers who lacked basic English proficiency, a legal requirement for operating commercial vehicles in the U.S. Some schools lacked actual classrooms or training lots, with one facility reportedly using an old bus in a backyard as its primary instruction site.

trucking schools· cdl· fraud· english proficiency· road safety

1:22:09 Yeah, I know. And they did a good job of doing that. Um, I had a couple of clips from last week and it was, and this might not help the uh, it was Duffy on truck school closures. They went after a bunch like hundred and so different trucking schools in and shut them down. And they were one of the schools their classroom was an old bus. They'd bring people in and teach him. Really? Yeah. In other words, they didn't have parking lots I don't know if you have the clips from 1900, but Duffy on school truck closures 1 2 & 3 those. Yep yeah very very interesting here we go what goes on What we are announcing is an emergency executive shutdown of a hundred and ten driving schools

1:22:53 So these are driving schools that account for 5,000 of the violations for English proficiency. You have to speak English to operate a commercial motor vehicle I didn't create that rule President Trump didn't create that rule That rule has been in place for decades And we have schools that know the rule and still pass people through their school who can't speak the language. And so there's 110 of them, through our data analysis that are the greatest offenders as of today those schools are shut down. Hold on don't they have to do a test? Don't they have to like a DMV

1:23:33 Yeah, they have to take a test and they were giving people. And I'm looking at my clips now. I might've done the same clip twice on Clip 2 but it might be different clip there are different sizes but they're supposed to give them a test and some of these places were just passing people through Yeah, they were given them the English test. Go ahead We also have shut down a hundred and sixty additional schools These are schools that in essence Certified that they are qualified to train truck drivers However, they don't have space to even allow the truck driver to actually get behind the wheel and drive They have unlicensed instructors

1:24:14 So you have instructors who aren't certified, who are allegedly training the new truck drivers to operate on American roadways. And they oftentimes didn't have classrooms. One school that we're shutting down was so flippant as they told us their classroom was the school bus that was in the backyard, that was the classroom for which they were training new truck drivers. Nice! Yeah I mean total fraud of course and uh i think the third one is got a good kicker in it Well, for commercial drivers oftentimes the states will certify testers that'll do it on the state's behalf. What we found through our data analysis is that many of these certified state testers actually aren't adequately testing the potential drivers they're going to license in one state there are 10 skills testers

1:25:14 And they work for the state. If they get through the skills test, they're going to get a license We have 10 skill testers who have given over 2,000 driver's licenses to people who can't speak English This is the simplest of tests if you talk to anybody if you give a written test which these testers have to do You know what they speak and read English and over 2,000 could not speak or read English. And they still were able to get a state license. So we are cracking down on this fraud and we are going to bring safety back to American roadways. Dan I guess there's some new jobs available then? There you go yeah but that could also increase on the short term if they're getting rid of thousands of truck drivers out there

CHAPTER 20 / 32 Discussion

Global Gold Reserves, Repatriation and Bitcoin Resurgence

Several nations, including France and the Netherlands, are reportedly moving their gold reserves out of the United States and United Kingdom to store them domestically. This trend is linked to fears of cyberattacks or being "kicked off" the dollar-based financial system. The hosts note that Bitcoin is seeing a resurgence as an alternative asset that is harder for government officials like Scott Besant to block compared to traditional banking.

gold· fort knox· richard quest· bitcoin· scott besant

1:26:06 There's definitely going to be a need for more truck drivers or robot trucks, which is coming down the pipe. Robot trucks... Have you been following the gold? No, I don't even know where it's at right now. Well... I mean, I knew it had gone and hit its high a while back but I hadn't been uh... Well that's actually the interesting thing here is little historical clip about gold For decades the US has been considered This is Richard Quest Oh Richard Quest? Is he from England yeah Yeah he was such a great story Where on New Years Eve He was found in some park in New York

1:26:45 And he had been doing ketamine or something. He had like sex toys in his boot and all kinds of stuff, they still have him on CNN I don't know what he's got on anyone at CNN but he has been there forever For decades the US has been considered one of the safest places to store gold Fort Knox, 600 miles from the Atlantic coast Uncle Sam buried his store of gold. Armed patrols and mechanized units escorted it to its new home which is big enough for all the gold in the world as a protection against civil war foreign invasion and gangsters The Bullion is protected by electrified fences gas-filled steel barricades and machine guns Compare the Bank of England The old lady at Threadneedle Street doesn't even carry an umbrella So the main...the two main places where you keep your gold

1:27:33 in the United States, Fort Knox. I'm still waiting for Elon to show us the gold he was going to live stream that. That didn't happen. Hey now listen Rand Paul went there and said it was all there but he didn't show a picture that's what you get Oh Rand Paul? When did he go there? oh about a month ago He's like i've been to fort knox its all good Really? The Gold is There! Oh yeah everybody was roasting him cause they were like Show us a picture We don't believe you Well not all of it's there because the gold is goin' home In terms of storing gold. The main places where gold has always been stored and the traditional places is historic, historical reasons why it gold isn't. France for example let's choose France we'll give France a go. France used to store its gold into the United States but last year after an upgrading of various gold it moved the gold back

1:28:26 to France itself. In terms of the Netherlands, which we're talking about at the moment now the Netherlands had stored gold in Canada and in the United States but guess what that's also been moved but this time it's been moved to the United Kingdom. In other words the major venues for where gold has been stored in the past are the US and the UK. Now more and more countries are deciding it's time to take the gold home.

1:29:09 crash or perhaps that the United States as we are indeed doing a cyber attack is coming and I don't think it I Don't think a cyber attack, but we're kicking people off the system. It's like oh you want to take Iranian Chinese? Iranian oil money no we didn't know dollars for you That's what that's about That's why Bitcoin is going up. Bitcoin is having a resurgence moment because people, you know that's the one thing that Scott Besson can't stop nobody as long as they keep it in bitcoin if you try to go to Coinbase and sell it yeah Scott Besson will block you

1:29:49 Yeah, it looks like it's let's see. Let's get around 80 months right now 79 yeah I have we had a clip of that that Well, I forget the guy's name that we had on just now But the guy from CNN but he was talking about a wedding a wedding menu. I think it was the royal wedding Yeah print then he goes on on the menu is pea soup and he said And that's all I remember of that guy. He is the pea soup guy anytime I see him. Let me see if I can find that... let me see, that guy had such a colorful history

1:30:28 So June, it looks like June to August it was down to $10,000 or $15,000 and now its up to 79. No! June it was down to 60. It went down to 60? Yeah, okay. Richard Quest... I can't believe that clip anymore. Richard Quest.... He's the funniest thing Let me see. We also had a weird clip of Colin Powell He has some weird title I don't have it, I don't have it anymore Although he's dead now I think Hey you promised us second half of show stuff Oh my god! I need the jingle Okay Do I have second half lined up? I can do it for ya Let me go backwards Second half

The Screwtape Letters, C.S. Lewis and Forbidden Books

A discussion on the "Tinfoil Hat" podcast regarding old books leads to a segment on C.S. Lewis's *The Screwtape Letters*. The book, which features a senior demon advising a junior demon on how to corrupt a human soul, is praised for its insights into human consciousness and hypocrisy. The hosts also mention the suspicious death of a book collector named Joe Fells, who was reportedly scanning old Bibles before his passing.

1:31:19 Second half of show. This is my great system that I made. Okay, here we go. All right! All right, I hope these do justice. Second half of show! Have you ever heard of a Vega Astrologer? Vega astrologer... Or maybe it's Veda astrologer and this was all in my mind last week and uh it is I think it's a Veda astrologer no and so I'm listening to the tinfoil hat podcast Oh with Tripoli

1:32:01 Tripoli, yes. I've been doing you know since i've been doing the show I haven't been listening to the show because between me and you talking I'm getting all the information I need so I've been listening to a little bit of this he has this guy on and I was thinking it's going to be boring for the first maybe 30-40 minutes it is then all sudden he starts talking about these old books And I'd never heard...I've heard one of the books that was listed on here and had never heard any other ones And he just rolls them off and talks about the different things in them. But we're going to start with an easy one that a lot of people probably heard of is the screw tape letters, his last name's Harmon and I'll find his full name. I just have J Harmon on there but it starts with second half

1:32:43 Jay Harmon book one screw tape letters CS Lewis wrote a book if anybody ever wants to read is that really interesting little book? It's called the screw tape letters and he makes it disclosure at the beginning of the book He says I cannot verify whether this book is fact or fiction but read it and see what you think And it's about this little demon who reports back to his uncle Scrute, hence the name of the book. So the first little chapter is Uncle I just had one my human subjects join a religion and the uncles say don't worry about it we've taken good care of that and changed all the books that are really about us nobody will figure it out so don't worry about anything then they'll notice everybody sitting in the pews at church hypocritical and the rest of week they treat each other like shit come back and act holy but this book gets into some

1:33:34 eerie stuff about how you know, we'll be looking at something. The titillation of the physical plane and he'll tell the little demon how to get the human to get his mind off that and get it over on this so its all about consciousness in the mind And back to what you were saying earlier these people get immense physical powers in the realms by doing certain things sacrifices etc etc they seem to be enamored with blood David Icke cracked into a lot of this. A lot of people thought David Icke was crazy, now they're going you know this guy might not have been wrong! Okay i highly recommend reading the screw tape letters... Highly recommended it's definitely good. I don't know why he's making the sound so screwy? Screwy tape

1:34:25 Have you read them? I have not read them. Oh, I'm gonna check out all three or four of the books this guy mentions just because there was a guy who recently committed suicide his name was Joe Fells and he was into collecting old Bibles and he was going to scan him and put him on the internet He's in a mental institution and he hangs himself. And of course, he said many times I'm never going to commit suicide. Yes, if i'm not suicidal yes of course My radar is pinged to anything old now. I'm like oh let's find old books and you know I got started in this back I found these in an old used bookstore, in the conspiracy section which was two shelves. And I'm reading these and I'm like okay this looks good and it's small. None Dare Call It Conspiracy is a very small book.

1:35:14 but talks about world government. And then you go to who runs Congress, and that was written by Ralph Nader. And it's about how Congress is basically corrupt and it talked about the price of milk a lot because they started regulating the price of milk which is why it became so cheap. And those got me kind of started on my trail of peering behind the curtain. So I'm always looking...and when people are talking about old things and how they just kinda peaks my interest Now this next book, I'd never heard of it. I had heard of the Screwtape Letters but just never read it but I'm definitely going to go find a copy and check it out. But the Shahar Haggiliam is this other book he's talking about and I've got actually two clips on this who was written by...I just think that stuff is interesting and if you've ever heard of this book or not

Sha'are Gilgulim, Reincarnation and the Mark of Silence

The hosts explore concepts from the book *Sha'are Gilgulim* (Gates of Reincarnation), including the "Mark of Silence" located under the human nose and the idea that the soul enters the body with the first breath. The discussion touches on the "Nafesh" or lower conscious mind as an interface for the physical world. They debate the nature of Earth as a "soul cauldron" or "time machine" designed for experiential growth.

1:36:03 Something for you and Pastor Jimmy to talk about but here's a Here's clip two screw tape letters for sure. I don't know about this next one They they literally say in the sharia Gilgum that when we are born, we're knocked out. Remember that first breath? That's when the spirit psyche and soul... We all have a mark right here it's called the Mark of Silence And real quick I'll tell you The mark is right under your nose That little dimple where your lip Right before your lip is That what he's referring to That's the Mark of Silence? Hmmmm That's what he saying the Mark of Silence is Okay And He says When you take your first breath That actually your soul

1:36:41 Officially enters your body. Yeah, so and yeah pretty interesting stuff now finish that clip us out Look at a little baby. They can't stand, see or talk." Now they see real soon after that and what's interesting is we're knocked out now the gray matter of the brain in the lower consciousness is reforming The Sharia Gilgum refers to that lower conscious mind as a strange word called the Nafesh Then afesh is just synonymous with your lower present personality The first seven years, the child goes through amazing development. I mean it's just stunning!

1:37:24 So the lower conscious mind is not us. It's the interface to this dense world of time and space, and everybody believes everything they see touch feel in here and they're right it's real And God might have done us a favor by knocking us out because if we could see all the disincarnate souls spirits angels and intelligences and Elementals around us We probably couldn't walk across the room without flipping our cookies ah like this This is good By the way, so my daughter she says you know guys people have given her all kinds of stuff for the baby and she has these flashcards. And so she's you know these flash cards they're just black and white images

1:38:07 like shapes and she says no because babies can't you know they can't really see color yet and they just see contrast. And I'm looking at these flashcards, I'm like this is MK, MK altering my granddaughter. It's all like pentagrams and stuff what's on these cards? What are you doing?! I don't trust this stuff! Demon horns? Like triangles and checkers...I don't know. I don't think he should be showing them to her I like his line there at the end, losing your cookies. Oh one quick does she have the Norwegian snot sucker? What is that?! All right so kids get stuffy noses! Oh it's like a little bulb and you suck it out? Well no this actually because the bulb thing gets gross inside of it yeah so what you get is this thing and then

1:38:58 Use your mouth and you stick the thing into the kids nose And you suck it out, the snot out and it goes into a sponge. A sponge catches it so you don't swallow it Hey my granddaughter doesn't have snotty nose okay? She doesn't have that she's perfect Just wait till she starts breathing them chemtrails With my kids it was shoot silver water up the nose and suck it out. And I did that a lot. Colloidal silver, colloidal silver! Yeah. Let me tell you my kids are really they're very healthy and we never had... They never got what well my wife gets a lot these in sinus infections but they've managed to keep them clean yeah You make him eat rocks

1:39:45 Yeah, you know whatever helps. As long as they're not coated in glyphosate I'm like eat whatever you want. Alright clip two of this Sharia Gilgam. Previously concretized beliefs also habit patterns and more importantly karmas that are connected to the soul root down into time and space This is why intentions prayers meditations actually do matter Because we emit thought-form elementals out of the third eye chakra, which permeate the auric field. And you don't lose that when you lose this! When we exit the body known as death...

1:40:26 You're not dead. Your consciousness goes right on there's they actually say there's seven locusts Right outside of the earth and I'm not making this up it's in the Vedas They talk about these dimensions called locus the sharia Gilgum will blow your hair back It literally talks about how consciousness is and karmas have to grow in order to escape from Alcatraz. The Earth is a time machine, that's all it is! It's a divine experiential place of genetic time and space and experience I think its really divine...I always say I love the human race but it's just the damn people that irritate me! Yeah, I'm with you! Wow!

1:41:08 It's a spaceship! We're on Spaceship Earth. Interesting descriptive language of stuff that we don't, I don't think always think about and you know where were at what were doing were always concerned with the mundane. Well now were not, we're just glued to our screens and hyper focused on the lancy-clancy And now yeah, and now this final clip is about karma you pass out karma a lot You've done it for coming up on 19 years and he starts talking about Karma. He mentions a little bit in that first part which Kind of piqued my interest, but then he gets into his here is a definition of karma What's the difference between getting possessed by a ghost and a demon? Is there are two different things because I mean yeah. Yeah Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah you i'm glad you brought that up because there's So many different levels see now if you get that text I talked about the sharia gilgum There's another one. I love it's called minot yahuda It was written by a rabbi in the late 1800s early 1900s

CHAPTER 23 / 32 Discussion

Karma Definitions, Spiritual Protection and Beliefs

A guest on another program defines karma as "thought-form elementals" attached to the soul root, suggesting that drugs and alcohol can weaken the human aura. One host expresses personal discomfort with these definitions since becoming a believer, preferring traditional prayers over concepts like karma or tarot cards. The segment concludes with a humorous transition using a "prayers" jingle to "sweep away" the esoteric topics.

1:40:26 You're not dead. Your consciousness goes right on there's they actually say there's seven locusts Right outside of the earth and I'm not making this up it's in the Vedas They talk about these dimensions called locus the sharia Gilgum will blow your hair back It literally talks about how consciousness is and karmas have to grow in order to escape from Alcatraz.

Is there are two different things because I mean yeah. Yeah Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah you i'm glad you brought that up because there's So many different levels see now if you get that text I talked about the sharia gilgum There's another one. I love it's called minot yahuda It was written by a rabbi in the late 1800s early 1900s

1:42:05 And he specifically addresses what Dr. Carl Wicklund and many of these other practitioners have discovered, and the Sharia Gogum addresses this specifically which means the human aura is like a sieve when you do drugs and alcohol you weaken the auric magnetic field and stuff comes in on you Anger can do that. Also, violence or even if you have a genetic makeup like that... See God created time so everything wouldn't happen at once in my opinion and the earth is a soul cauldron where souls come here and experience time and space

1:42:44 And karma is really interesting because you know us Westerners, we get a little nervous when we hear that word karma right? You know I no idea what I first heard it. But karma is really the thought form elementals that we created not only in this lifetime but are attached to our soul root And this is deep stuff. If reincarnation's possible, which I absolutely know it is in my heart...I don't sell that to anybody but if you look at the evidence, look at Monroe. I mean, Monroe was totally scientific and Edgar Cayce and so many others that have provided evidence that is overwhelming. Yeah! If I had my shofar right now, I'd be blowing it Rob Duke

1:43:25 Just to get rid of all this nasty stuff that you brought into the show. None of this can be any good! Screw tape, okay I was alright with that but then all this stuff? Nah... nah I stay away from that You don't want any of that stuff entering your consciousness at all Well what do you think about their definition of karma I don't like it. Yeah, I don't like any of it unlike any of it ever since I became a believer Like nah, we'll stay away from that no tarot cards. No karma. I mean people ask for karma I do it because they asked what I love the people you know said I want the prayers Prayers not calling yeah. Do I have that clip here? Yes, so we have that jingle You've got

1:44:07 prayers You're trying to sweep away those clips with the prayer card the prayers. Yes, exactly I'm just sweeping it up sweeping it all under the rug. There we go Rob do brings you this second half of show creeping me out? I thought it was definitely weird enough to bring to the second half a show and I'm not endorsing anything He said I haven't read any of those books but I thought it was pretty interesting and i like some of his descriptive language like you know what is earth? You know, Is earth a time machine or are we just here to experiencing time because you could say it. You know a time machine you're traveling forward or backward but we are kind of experiencing the present as we go so

CHAPTER 25 / 32 Discussion

European Perceptions of America, Tesla Uber Experiences

While traveling in Rotterdam, the hosts observe that many Europeans perceive the United States as an extremely dangerous society due to social media algorithms highlighting violence and gun use. They also discuss the prevalence of Muslim Uber drivers in the Netherlands and critique the build quality of Tesla vehicles, noting frequent rattles and "plastic" interiors.

1:51:09 Abdul no, there's no Abdul's we had a Lena a couple different ones But you know this like some were from Morocco somewhere from Syria One was from India. You know so I'm talking and he talked about America And and it's not just the uber drivers but almost everybody who has not been to America they're like Oh, but isn't America really dangerous don't you have all those guns? Yes yeah of all the guns and Yeah, I mean people get shot on the street all the time and I realize that this is what social media has done. Because you see people fighting and they get in the algo just one after another after another... And these people really truly believe that we live in some horrible destructive society where everyone's just killing each other It's amazing! Where they're really living in the prison here themselves

1:52:04 They have no idea. Well, from where these guys probably came from or their parents came from it probably was pretty bad and they're like well look at this and they give us free money and they pay for our housing there's a high standard safety social safety net for the migrants coming into Europe Some of these guys I think are legit but i think some of them are also running the drugs Like how you making money with this? And these Teslas man! They rattle That means, have you ever been in a Tesla? It's all plastic. I had a friend who had a Tesla and he had a Cybertruck too at one point He got rid of the Cybertruck but yeah he uh... he got a tesla first and he loved it And then he got a cybertruck and then bought a diesel truck Yeah! Then went back to another Tesla Got another Tesla I think he just likes buying cars People, you know The cybertruck is foreboding here because it has sharp edges You know might hurt somebody So if you can't have a cyber truck

CHAPTER 26 / 32 Discussion

Tesla Cyber Taxi, FCC Investigation and Prank

A news report claims the Tesla Cyber Taxi is under federal investigation just one day after launching in Austin, Texas, due to a lack of traditional controls like steering wheels. Rob Dew attempts to prank Adam Curry with a fake audio clip of a Cyber Taxi using biometrics to "detain" a passenger for a 15-year-old police match. Curry quickly identifies the clip as a "vibe coded" fabrication, noting that the taxis do not yet travel to the airport.

1:52:04 They have no idea. Well, from where these guys probably came from or their parents came from it probably was pretty bad and they're like well look at this and they give us free money and they pay for our housing there's a high standard safety social safety net for the migrants coming into Europe Some of these guys I think are legit but i think some of them are also running the drugs Like how you making money with this?

Then went back to another Tesla Got another Tesla I think he just likes buying cars People, you know The cybertruck is foreboding here because it has sharp edges You know might hurt somebody So if you can't have a cyber truck

1:53:02 But the Tesla's man and but you that doesn't I haven't been in a single Tesla. That doesn't rattle just rattling like Everywhere, it was like creaking rattling. Oh Plastic well your leading into my tesla clips. I have no cyber taxi just launched in Austin Yeah two days ago were you at the event? Oh No, I hear Wall Street did not like it because I guess because it wasn't streamed live or anyway what clip let's know what happened we'll start with the first one Tesla cyber taxi launch FCC investigation that's why the stock price went down hold on a second so Tesla wait where Tesla cyber taxi it starts with team

1:53:48 No kidding. Okay. Tesla's driverless taxis now under a federal investigation and it comes just one day after hundreds of the cyber cabs hit the roads in Austin, Texas Now what federal investigators are looking into whether the two-seat cars comply with safety standards given that they lack steering wheels mirrors and brake pedals Neither Tesla nor its CEO Elon Musk has responded to our request for comments So that's why your stock price went down because of the FCC investigation. Wait, the FCC? What do they have to do with it? I don't know! That's what it says. The FCC?! Maybe there is some sort of weird... It's a Federal Communications Commission. That's what I thought so like I don't understand it.

1:54:29 Or maybe he said FTC. He might have said FTC, Federal Transportation. That does seem a little weird. There's a couple words this guy pronounced and I'm like, I don't understand what he is saying? And it is an ABC anchor. Now just the other day, I think yesterday this guy posted, you're going to love this one. It says Cyber Taxi To Police Okay. Biometrics verified navigating to city of Austin police department for further verification and potential detainment What? So what do you mean you verified my identity, and what do you mean detainment We're in the city of Austin like what's going on I don't think i've been in Austin for like 15 years Don't tell me like you check police records

1:55:15 Using the in-cabin biometric scanner. Cross referenced facial geometry with the department's database. What the? No! There is a flag on a partial match from 15 years back. What the? Standard protocol when the match hits that threshold, don't worry it's probably nothing but the vehicle has already locked the route Oh my god so what exactly is going to happen to me when I get there You'll be escorted inside for a quick identity check. They'll run a full scan, ask a few questions maybe pull any old records should be in and out in under an hour if everything checks out An hour? I have to my flight leaves in two hours like I was supposed to go right back to my hotel The routes already committed

1:55:58 21 minutes to the station can't reroute to the hotel now. Yeah, Rob you've been punked no way This is not true this is bullcrap all right play it put play of a kicker clip will skip the other two okay? We had about you taking me to the police station like as a prank you're used to remember that I Yeah, I remember that wild idea. What was the plan again? Give the viewers a rundown of what happened like what i asked you to do Like what type of scenario I wanted you to play out with me You wanted me to roleplay taking you to the police station as a prank You wanted a fun prank scenario where I'd pretend to reroute the robo taxi to the station instead of your real destination

1:56:40 Keeping it all white. We can cut it there, so I had two other clips to see if I could get it past you. No! First the real giveaway was that I need to go to the airport no because they don't go outside of the city of Austin they will not take you to the airport Oh I should have cut that part out almost cut that line out and also might have fell for it. No come on I'm a vibe coder, man. You can't get that by me! That's not gonna happen." I like the part where he says do you remember the plan we had? He was like of course i remember it what was the plan again? It's like, yeah I'll count to 100. Let's count to 100! Are you sure? We're gonna do it. Very funny very very funny very funny. Now let me see if i get that one past you now...I do have these clips we gotta play these before I go. Okay, I'll let you do the final series. Alright Cole Johnson MMA chimp fight

CHAPTER 27 / 32 Discussion

Cole Johnson, MMA Fighter vs Chimpanzee

MMA fighter Cole Johnson claims he has been offered money to fight a wild chimpanzee in a foreign country and eventually a polar bear with a sword. Johnson describes a "game plan" involving slamming the chimp, while the hosts mock the idea as suicidal given the extreme physical strength of primates. The segment highlights the absurdity of "D-level" internet content and concludes with Rob Dew's sign-off for the holiday weekend.

cole johnson· mma· chimpanzee· polar bear· animal fighting

1:57:36 Okay, what do I need to know about Cole Johnson? He's an MMA fighter. He only had one fight apparently but okay This is where he's going next I got offer for even more money in a month that I can't even disclose So this is a male champ that did a couple people and these guys are like alright You might as well do this. We'll give you some money, we're gonna blow this up." These people I'm working with now they're a little bit less sketchy... They're sketchy? Yeah, they are a little bit sketchy. You talk about fighting a chimp in a foreign country! Will the chimp be sedated in any way shape or form? Or it's like just as is? There's no- they're not going to cut their teeth, they're not going to cut their claws or anything like that

1:58:11 Um, and there's going to be people with tranquilizers as well. So I want to go against this wild animal and test myself against it. I don't want to kill this wild animal and I don't want to die. We're gonna fight until I see obviously I'm winning all right? If its killing me its gonna get tranquilized This thing is gonna eat his face off. Very very bad idea He does not realize how strong these things are And what kind of chimp is he like the chimp from uh I mean, what kind of chimp is it? It's not Michael Jackson Chimp. It's gonna be like a chimp-chimp that's going to hurt him! And he's gonna be big and angry. I don't think you know how strong these things are. Next is how he plans to fight the chimp. Hold on a second...

1:58:50 Yeah, are the television rights already secured for this file? I knew that's what you'd want. It was the first Can I still get in on this action is gonna be in a cage like a traditional MMA style Cage or is it like on concrete like what does this what does the setting on grass and that's gonna be a street beef Yep, it's gonna be like a street beats. That's going to be outdoors It's gonna be I think the cage is gonna be pretty large You realize if this chimp bites you in your neck or face. You know, sure you could tranquilize it but tranquilizers don't work immediately like movies like they don't go boom and then they're out like it takes a while definitely a serious injury could 100% happen if he gets my arm It's not the end of the world I've been training my whole life to slam people from any position right really? It's about protecting my balls on my next specifically I got a couple game plans here so the first plan I'm going to be trying to keep that distance

1:59:37 seen if I can keep it off me, we'll go for a couple minutes. I'll get this thing exhausted and then I'll go in for a slam or something." No, no the Cole Johnson. But apparently he slams really well that's his thing he picks people up and slams them down and I guess that's what he's gonna try with this chimp but you try to slam a chimp it's just gonna roll... chips know how to fight. I mean, they're physically stronger. This is really level Dvorak's TikTok ladies. You're really pushing my patience here. One more. Clip three gets even better. After this fight, I've been talking to a tribe out in the Arctic Circle. They have told me they have a polar bear out there

2:00:29 Obviously I'm not gonna fight a polar bear. You can't do a polar bear? No, they told me alright there's this polar bears been eating people's dogs It's been attacking people that's gonna be put down you can come and you can fight this thing with a sword And we will give you money like I've been hunting my whole life training my whole life I know how wild animal acts I stand a pretty good chance against polar bear too with a big sword I think I have that one as well Are you trained in sword fighting I am not. That would be a camp i would have to really lock in for, for sure. Okay all right well I'm calling Dane and Brunetti we're gonna get the rights we definitely have this is a pay-per-view extravaganza one of the shortest fights in MMA history no doubt this guy's going to die This is not...I don't think he's gonna make it to the polar bear if he actually fights the champ Hey Rob, but a lot of people are gonna watch it I guarantee you people will watch that they will be into it

2:01:17 Rob, dude thank you so much for being here once again. I appreciate it. Hope you can come back in the near future when you have some time? Yeah! Just let me know my schedule is very busy but it's a lot of fun and I've really enjoyed it and a lot of people have been sending me stuff which is why some of this stuff is up here Like hey man your now the crackpot send us Currys The Buzzkill Hey brother I really appreciate it See if he can pull this over on curry Yeah, yeah we'll do this cyber taxi thing sure.

Adam Curry emphasizes the "Value for Value" model, reminding listeners that the show is supported entirely by the community rather than advertisers. A brief correction is made regarding a missed tweet notification for the live stream.

CHAPTER 29 / 32 Discussion

No Agenda Art, AI Errors and Rotterdam History

Adam Curry discusses a glitch where the show's AI art generator produced "lewd" images for chapter markers, leading to a parental complaint. He also reads a letter from a producer in Rotterdam providing historical context on the Moluccan community in the Netherlands. The letter explains that Moluccans were former soldiers in the Dutch East Indies Army who were marginalized by the government after being brought to Europe in 1949.

rotterdam· moluccans· ai art· penetration tester· history

2:04:52 Ah, it's what happens when it's a... I don't know. What is now? It's almost 10 past 10 Sunday evening here in the Netherlands This is your Value for Value best podcast in the universe You know how it works At least you should know how it works If you get any value out of this show send it back In any of the three ways Time Talent Treasure You can do all three Of course You can Do all kinds of things for us Boots on The Ground are very helpful That's how I actually got into the whole signal trace system from Boots on The Ground, one of our producers You can tell somebody about the podcast, get them to listen hit him in the mouth. We love that and also you could do things like create art for us and you guys have really been doing some good work this The artwork for episode 1900 trust the plans or we titled it was Francisco Scaramanga brought us a beautiful penetration tester kit 33 ways to throw it now here's the funny thing

2:05:46 So I have the robot do the chapters for every single show and you know it goes into the Noah Gen art generator, it pulls different images and puts them into chapters. And looks at the titles...and I got a note from one of our producers who said, You know doesn't really bother me but my 10 year old son was looking at my phone and said Dad what kind of podcast are you listening to? And it pulled a couple of those pieces of art that Comic Strip Blogger put up there. I'm not even going to describe it to you, but it was wrong! So like hold on a second that showed up in the chapters? and then told the robot, I said, You know...you gotta make sure that your not putting lewd stuff into his chapter art and it literally went in

2:06:34 Looked at the art, quote-unquote looked at the arts and said oh yeah. No I'm gonna have to quote unquote look at the art from now on but the penetration tester that's just a long dart toy so you know are we near anywhere near artificial general intelligence? I don't think so Anyway, thank you Francisco Scaramanga for bringing us the artwork for episode 1900. I want to thank people who supported us with some treasure not a lot actually but of course it is the show after 1900 and it is Labor Day weekend but we did get $333.33 good for an order of The Ant Award and pin from Baron No Protector

2:07:20 of the Rhine estuary and he sent a note. And it's long one but I will read it. ITM Adam, that of course is always the deal we thank everybody $50 and above if its two hundred dollars or more you get associate executive producer credit and we'll read your note three hundred dollars or more executive producer credit and we'd read your note I sent my donations through PayPal belated happy birthday. I'm still one week ahead of you, you mean with your birthday i guess? Hope you have a great time in my hometown! Oh is he in Rotterdam?! Enjoy the moments with little Cleo, Christina and Kevin we have been enjoying it indeed heard your comments two shows ago on the role of Rotterdam and the drug trafficking in Europe. I am still awestruck looking at the downfall we've seen over here in the last three decades only a day or two ago there was a Mexican style shootout near the Belgian border where

2:08:06 where 35 thugs were invading another drug lord's house, killing one. Europe is crumbling and it's going downhill fast," he says. One thing I wanted to give some nuance in as you commenting on the Moluccans Oh yes, they were causing issues in the 70s hijacking trains and schools. Note however that the Moluccan's... this is true you know what thank you for the context note that the Moluccans were brought to The Netherlands in 1949 as they were the backbone of The Netherlands Indies Army at the time And after the transfer of power by the Netherlands to Indonesia, many Moluccan NCOs and soldiers were shipped to the Netherlands as part of the Dutch army and decommissioned upon arrival. They were housed in former concentration camps and basically given the middle finger by the Dutch government so entirely different stuff from Moroccans who are late entrants indeed and I do apologize

CHAPTER 32 / 32 Discussion

Random Thoughts, Closing Music and JCD Tribute

The broadcast ends with a promotion for the "Random Thoughts" stream and a high-energy rock track. The lyrics pay tribute to the late John C. Dvorak (JCD) and the show's commitment to turning "conspiracy into reality" without scripts or corporate leashes. The final audio includes a humorous comparison to mainstream media figures before the stream cuts to static.
