About this episode

George Clooney is operating as an economic hitman for the Council on Foreign Relations to secure Sudanese oil interests ahead of a planned national partition. This diplomatic front serves to displace Chinese influence in Africa while Clooney transitions his public persona toward a high-level political career in California. The rescue of 33 Chilean miners is simultaneously identified as a global media distraction designed to bury reports of a worldwide UFO unveiling and symbolic elite rituals.

Law & Order: Special Victims Unit has pivoted into a government-aligned social engineering tool by framing the soda industry as the new Big Tobacco to justify future sugary drink taxes. In the scientific community, Professor Harold Lewis resigned from the American Physical Society after labeling global warming a pseudoscientific fraud driven by financial pressure. Meanwhile, the TSA Secure Flight program and mandatory naked body scanners are expanding despite radiation concerns, while states like Michigan explore roadside saliva tests as a pretext for warrantless DNA collection. In India, the Commonwealth Games have turned Delhi into a militarized zone featuring machine-gun bunkers and the confiscation of house keys.

Frederick Guimond and Ernie Ernst are officially knighted into the No Agenda Round Table for their financial support of the media assassination mission. The episode also highlights the linguistic death of the word amazing and the strange case of a foot-playing pianist on China’s Got Talent. Adam Curry and John C. Dvorak break down the Stuxnet worm's targeting of Siemens SCADA systems and the rise of the Blackwater of vaccines in the United Kingdom.

Gitmo Nation Media Assassination Episode 243 Introduction

Adam Curry and John C. Dvorak open Episode 243 of the No Agenda show from their respective locations in Southern California and Northern Silicon Valley. The hosts introduce the "Gitmo National Anthem" and greet the audience, including those in the live chat room, while establishing the show's theme of media assassination.

00:00 Those things give you cataracts. Adam Curry, John C. Dvorak. It's Thursday, October 14, 2010. Time for your Gitmo Nation Media Assassination Episode 243. This is no agenda. I sure hope the mothership can navigate through the fog above the hilltop watchtower at Crackpot Command Center, which is located in Gitmo Nation West in the People's Republic of Southern California. In the morning, everybody. I'm Adam Curry. And I'm John C. Dvorak. Oh, hey. Oh, there it is. I tried to hit it right after the whistle, figuring that would be your cue, and then it misfired and then it locked up, so... Sorry about that. Hey, in the morning to you, John. In the morning to you, and good morning to all ships at sea and human resources. You know what? I think we should probably do it one more time just because it's brand new. Should we do the national anthem?

00:56 Oh yeah, you might as well. Human resources and servants in all lands and all ships at sea. From the east to west, down under to the lowlands and beyond. We are happy and distracted slaves. Hear our hypnomation song.

Chilean Miner Rescue, UFO Unveiling Distraction Theory

The rescue of 33 Chilean miners is characterized as a pre-planned media distraction orchestrated by elites to divert attention from a worldwide UFO unveiling on October 13, 2010. Observations are made regarding the symbolic use of the number 33, the low quality of NASA's underground video feed, and the use of generic sports themes by major news networks like Fox News during the coverage.

01:44 And of course in the morning to all the human resources in the chat room at no agenda chat net where we Have everyone all charged up and ready to go the way their government loves them when we do the show live at no agenda stream Calm Thursday and Sunday morning. Hey, guess what? What news? Oh big news. What they rescued the miners Which was Which was? completely planned as a distraction for the UFO Unveiling worldwide. Yeah, where was the UFO yesterday everywhere? It was over New York City. They were tons of spheres And and high quality video for you John high quality video Germany we have high quality pictures and

02:34 You know, this is why they planned it. They totally planned this. Planned it. Yeah. So by the way... What do you mean? Yes. Yeah. So here's the... Where is our jingle? We haven't played it for months on end. Uh-huh. Nothing to see here. It's not even queued up. You know what it is? I've set everything in the new system and I'm still trying to figure out where everything is. Don't look over here. Nothing to see here. So this first of all they are laughing in my face the evil elites who? Schedule these minors which by I mean it could it be any more boring the only drama they could put I mean at least have a guy like pass out or die or something on the way they have one dramatic moment that sucked yeah, that was the the wife and the wife who wouldn't show up

03:30 Who wrote this script you guys meanwhile all the CNN Fox everybody they kept having these boring they take over the whole show and you have to play this clip Which is the clip from? yesterday's Hannity show and he first he reintroduces the entire story as though we've never heard it before and uh... so he goes yak yak yak is a very he's says it let's take it let's go and the other day apparently i i bet you they put the writers on a hiatus and don't pay him for the shows double then they say let's go to uh... let's go to chile and hear from the president al president day and this is what you end up with the hearing and this passes for entertainment and but first we're gonna go to the president of chile as he makes a public comments

04:24 Oh Is this their national anthem? It goes on for five minutes. They should have played our Gitmo national anthem. That would have been much better. And the idiot doesn't say, well, they're singing a song where we'll get right back to that. Let's go to the studio and talk about this. No, let's watch the song. It's great. No, instead they play the entire thing. This is what I picked up. The Jeff Smith recorded this for me from Fox. Pay attention to the

04:59 Background music on this piece regarding the Chilean miners Recognize that from anywhere. It's like a sports theme. It's our music. It's our music It's this yeah, it's They're so cheap ass they have to use the same free shit we use. That's ridiculous. But listen now for a second. So seriously, in all seriousness, so October 13th was supposed to be the big unveiling of the UFOs who absolutely came.

05:51 Absolutely, and the show notes are filled with videos and high quality videos, John, we always ask for. And pictures of these orbs orbiting New York City. We have pictures from Germany. There's multiple. I mean, it's all the same kind of beautiful orb. So this happened worldwide. And then of course everyone's not looking up at the sky, we're looking down at the ground and then the Illuminati or whoever's in charge of making sure we don't pay attention to the sky, they laugh in my face by having all these memes in there like it's 33 miners, they had the drill for 33 hours, you know 10, 13, 10 is 33. They're putting 33 everywhere just to say, no one will be looking at the sky. No, we will have everyone focused at the ground.

06:43 You don't, you're not buying it. Well, these little objects you're talking about look like hot air balloons to me. Oh, right. Of course they're hot air balloons. Do you know how hard it is to just fly something in the sky at that height in an area like New York City? You think that just happens? By the way, nothing showed up on radar according to the FAA. Of course not, it's a plastic balloon. Yeah, okay. Yeah, right. Whatever. You can keep denying it all you want. When they come down and land and say hello. They never said they would come down and land and say hello. They said they were going to unveil. This is step one. Who did they tell this to then if they never talked to anyone? They told it to the guy who wrote the book about it. Oh, is there a movie coming out shortly? Yes, there is. It's called Skyline. It's called Skyline. Interesting movie too. It's coming out in a month. You got a book, you got a movie, what more could you ask for? But I will say that regardless of the cover-up of the UFO unveiling,

07:40 It is completely outrageous that our entire day is consumed by counting down how many miners were bringing up through this shaft. It's just nuts. It's nuts. And by the way, did you know that this is the copper mine that supplies NASA with all of their copper? That's why NASA built the capsule, which by the way looks like a 9th grade science project. That whole thing looked weird. The capsule, the flywheel. Yeah, that stupid flywheel. I looked at that rig and I said, is this the best they can do? It looks like an old hobby horse. With like an old wagon wheel on top. With a wagon wheel on top that was going slower and slower and it didn't look... the thing looked like it was gonna break.

08:30 Yeah, and then here's the thing that really irks me. So they've got a video from down in the cave, right? And they've got guys down there. They sent guys down to help the guys up. Right. Well, how come the video is like, it's see you, see me cam? You know, chat roulette is better than that video. You know, what is the deal? And actually I asked them, Ms. Mickey, I said, you know, why is that? Why can't they put like a high quality camera down there? She says, well, they're 2000 feet under the surface. I'm like, that doesn't make any difference. We're like two miles with the horizon thing. You know, they had better video from 20,000 leagues under the sea. What? Why is my connection work? Well, I'm on Skype. Are you telling me that NASA uses Skype?

09:15 I thought the video was a little peculiar. It's very peculiar. This is not a slam against you, darling. This is an observation that bothers me. They're critiquing the show on the fly? Oh yeah, she gives me that look like... Well that's it for you, nothing for you tonight my friend. She gives me the drunken goat look because I said that she had heard that they made the goats drunk for the cheese but I misunderstood. Just so no one thinks she's stupid. I'm the idiot. Okay. This is the point She wants everyone to know that Adam is the idiot not Mickey. Yeah, ladies and gentlemen, you're witnessing the beginning of the end So let's get to some mention some producers yeah, let's do that for sure we have so we do that dog before we do that I don't want to belabor the point

CHAPTER 03 / 40 Discussion

Hollywood Producer Titles, Law and Order SVU Credits

A comparison is drawn between the lean production staff of the podcast and the extensive list of producer titles found in the credits of Law & Order: Special Victims Unit. The breakdown includes various tiers such as supervising producers, consulting producers, and "produced by" credits, suggesting many roles are honorary or financial rather than functional.

executive producer· law and order svu· hollywood· credits· production

10:08 But I was looking at the, I guess it was the SVU show, and I decided to look over the type of producers and sub-producers and co-producers and the titles. and a for one thing it is some of the shows they have for executive producer and have two people listen sometimes just have executive producer one person executive producer one person which is what we do sometimes a hell are you talking a number of people involved in producing the show okay so anyway women let me just recap okay so what you're saying is this is it you because we have the producers and executive producers and associate executive producers on this program and we have a couple of them and at this of course is just like

10:52 Hollywood where they actually do this. This is very normal people were involved in a project that usually it has to do with their financial assistance and now you've compared notes here, and you've looked at special victims. Yeah, I mean we're weak sisters is what I'm trying to say here. And they have extra titles that I haven't seen before. Okay, so let I'm gonna go over the exact order and how many people and they're all standalones There's none of these combined executive producer a and B. There's all standalone ready. I'm ready co-producer co-producer producer supervising producer Consulting producer Co-executive producer, co-executive producer, co-executive producer, co-executive producer, and get this one, produced by. Oh, wait a minute. Oh, gee. So do we get to have the produced by credit or not even that? Yeah, you're the produced by guy in this show. I'll sell that slot. In other words, produced by apparently is the person who actually works. It's one guy who actually did something and all the rest just hung out at craft services and banged the groupies.

11:56 So after four co-executive producers and produced by we have again co-executive producer, co-executive producer, executive producer, executive producer. That's how many people are involved. All standalone titles. We really got to work on our producer things here. Yeah, we need a cons... well, I don't know. But anyway, we do have a few this week, including Frederick Guimond, who is our standalone executive producer. Oh, I'm sorry, we have to go back to our list. No, no, no, we have separate executive producers from the Tent in Tenshin. We have two separate ones we want to run this week. Michael Zelina and John Weaver.

Executive Producer Credits, Frederick Guimond, Dennis Larmon

Frederick Guimond is recognized as an executive producer for his work on an open-source educational video game, while Dennis Larmon from the Netherlands is credited as an associate executive producer. Larmon's donation is noted as a celebration of his 42nd birthday and the 10-10-10 milestone, despite his brother previously labeling him a "chucklehead."

frederick guimond· dennis larmon· 10-10-10· open source· netherlands

12:35 Michael's Lena and John Weaver, okay, but off the list on the list will furnish future show will be coming up is Frederick agree mall who from Montreal who I get who's the last man in on the 1010 10 Lucky 1010 10 celebration night really okay, and so he's in on that he needs good karma for a presentation he's doing on Tuesday to get financing to continue work on his current project and pronounced Gienaweeg at the Gienaweeg.org which is J-N-A-V-I-G-U-E if anyone wants to check it out. It's an open source educational video game to teach kids how to learn to read, write and type. Hold on a second. You've got karma. There you go. Karma going out to Frederick. It's in French at the moment. Oh. Do you... what does have? How do you say you've got karma in French, Mickey? What? What?

13:34 She said something nasty. Never mind. You have karma. Let's put it that way. She's still pissed at you. Yeah, she's totally pissed at me. I don't know what's going on. Also go over to 1984comic.com and follow the making of the comic book adaptation of George Orwell's dystopian novel. Cool. That should be fun to watch. Thomas Nussbaum, who comes in as an executive producer from Virginia Beach, Virginia, 33788. and finally Dennis Larman who is an associate executive producer from TIEL Netherlands which I would pronounce. Let's try this. It's Dennis Larmon. Larmon. Larmon from Thiel. From Thiel. He has an email that he wanted me to read which I actually have downloaded if I have the right preparation. Curiously by the way Dennis was called out by his brother

14:33 Ronald as a douchebag? Yeah, but now he's not a douchebag. Well, he called him a chucklehead. Well, no, that's not bad. Chucklehead is fans of the Charlie. Okay, well anyway, he's a listener from episode one, Dennis. I live in shame for not donating before, but this will be all changed as of today. I donated $240.42. I know the 10-10-10 show has already passed us, but let me explain the amount. My wife was born on October 6th. my body turned 41 I think my brain got stuck somewhere between 26 and 29 if you say that it really got stuck at 18. It's human resource. This is how I still feel so in honor of the no agenda show I organized a big 1010 Ted birthday brunch with loads of food and booze. Cool. That's a good thing before giving the big party to celebrate the start of my 42nd year on this planet everybody started calling

15:21 What to get this old birthday boy calling me anyway if as you know in Holland you had these parties are Everyone sits in a circle and they sit there for a minute And they drink coffee and it's the same people from the party from two weeks ago And they talked about the same crap. It's a continually heard bad things about a Dutch birthday. Good. Oh That's not good. So if you ever, by the way, to normal listeners, if you're ever invited to one, beg off. That's right. Swine flu is what I'm saying. Can't make it. So anyway, that's our executive producers for this week. No associates?

15:58 No, he is the associate. Dennis is the associate. Oh, Dennis is the associate? Okay, alright. Let me just put that in the right place there. A couple PR mentions I'd like to make before we really get into the show. First of all, happy birthday Stephen Pelsmachers. We'll do an official birthday jingle and shout out for him. But he wanted to hear his birthday mentioned and of course he is the top patron of the show and as we all know I would do a lot more for him than just wish him happy birthday. We don't want to know. No we don't. Coming out very soon a novel titled One Day in Gitmo Nation written by our excellent human resource and producer Scott McKenzie from Gitmo Nation East. Now he sent me this novel it's about 250 pages. He sent it to me five times in as many months. That makes it longer. Well you know when someone sends you a book it's like hey read this book. You know it's hard but I started to read this John

I mean this he's got but everything is like it's So instead of swine flu he mentions canine flu. It's got TSA nightmares in there. It's got border patrol problems. It's got Airbus versus Boeing. It's got zombies. I mean everything is in there and you just you're reading through this book and it's a page-turner. I swear to God you just go like oh my god. Oh this and it's great. It's well written.

17:34 and it should be out in a couple of weeks and he'll be selling that and I guess he'll sell it first and then he'll give it away for free and of course proceeds will go to the show. I just wanted to mention that I've actually, I'm like halfway through it and it's absolutely phenomenal. Our first book! I'm very excited. We need to have Noah Jenner. We've created a book. Yes, we've done a book and John, I haven't known you for a while, we've talked about your book a lot, finally it's here. Finally.

Paper Clip Figurines, Ryan Garcia Business Proposal

Ryan Garcia, a college student with Asperger's syndrome, seeks advice on selling handmade paper clip figurines to overcome unemployment. Suggestions are provided for him to create topical designs, such as figures going through TSA body scanners, and to market them as executive desk gifts.

18:30 So that's kind of a cool site. And then I just want to say hi to Ryan Garcia. He says in the morning, Adam and John, I'm a college student in Southern California. I'm broke and I can't find the job, mostly because I have Asperger's syndrome and I'm terrible in social situations. So I was wondering if you could help me. I can make figurines out of paper clips and I would like to sell them, but I don't know how to get people interested in them. So I was wondering if you could mention it on the show and I will split the profits with you guys. Now he makes really good figurines, I have to say. And and since you know Ryan's basically reaching out for help, but so here's what you need to do Ryan You need to register a cool domain name that has like no agenda in the title get your PayPal all set up and And make some funny ones make some like you know like people going through a scan a body scanner at TSA at the checkpoint That kind of stuff and then I guarantee you you will no longer be broke and you'll help the show as well

19:28 I think a little guy going through a scanner is a great idea. Holding his arms up. In paper clips. In paper clips. It makes a great executive gift. That would be good on a desk. It would look phenomenal. Alright, we want to thank our stand-alone executive producer Michael Zelina, stand-alone executive producer John Weaver, this episode's executive producer Frederick Guimond, Executive producer Thomas Nussbaum and our associate executive producer Dennis Larmon, all of you of course can put this on your resume. It's an official credit. It really does count. I'd mentioned this to people here in Hollywood. They go, huh? That's pretty. In fact, didn't I hear Leo Laporte say he wanted to get in on the action and get himself an executive producership on Twit? Yeah, he did. He asked me, he said, what if I just did every show?

CHAPTER 07 / 40 Discussion

20:18 Well, then you'd be the executive producer at every show. Yeah, you'd be okay. Can you do that? Can you actually be the executive producer of every show? Yeah, yeah, she can yeah, he didn't quite get it. What was funny though as you said I never listen All the time I know he does All right, everybody else go out there and propagate our formula. It is incredibly simple our formula is this We go out we hit people in the mouth Lots of great participation from everybody on the no agenda primer idea of doing a show that you can send to other people and And so that they you know a short show which I think we should do next week John We should either do it right after the show or maybe you do it on Tuesday and record it. I don't care I'm game and remember I asked people to send send in some testimonials and

21:25 Yeah, how's that coming? It's pretty funny. Got any good ones to share? Hi, I'm Pete from Amsterdam and I lost 10 pounds by listening to No Agenda. There's a couple of really good ones. So that one we already knew of course. Here's one that's interesting. Hi, this is Mark the pilot. I listen to No Agenda because it gets me laid. I mean, I mean talking of I mean is that is that a great endorsement or what? I think this is the this is the type of endorsement we're looking for. Yes. Well, there's more where that came from. In fact, my job as a Soviet spy keeps me away from home a lot. I used to have to go into the office every now and then just to check up on the news. But now I listen to the new agenda show. And those guys watch C-SPAN so that I don't have to. It's great. Thanks, John and Adam.

22:21 Let me just do two more here. This is pretty funny stuff. Hi, I'm just a mindless human resource working customer service for a mid-level educational software company. But thanks to No Agenda, I know that however isolating and soul-crushing my life has become, I can still do my part to support the Afghan opium trade with my tax dollars. I couldn't believe how easy it was just to contribute pennies on the dollar. Thanks, John and Adam. Come on, man, that's awesome. Yeah, I think our listeners are, uh... Off the hook! I think they've, they've, they've, yeah. It doesn't take much to push people off the track. It's a drop.io slash NAPrimmer, N-A-P-R-I-M-E-R, upload them. I think they'll be very handy for, uh, for the Primmer show that we're planning. Yeah. And if I heard that, I'd be like, all right. You just do a whole disc of those things. I think people would be like, yeah, I got to listen to this. This is good. We don't have to, we don't have to save money. How does that work?

CHAPTER 08 / 40 Discussion

TSA Secure Flight Program, Naked Body Scanners

The TSA's "Secure Flight" program and the implementation of mandatory naked body scanners are criticized as invasive measures with no proven efficacy in preventing terrorism. Concerns are raised regarding the health risks of radiation, the "enhanced pat-downs" for those who opt out, and the collection of personal data including gender and date of birth.

tsa· secure flight· body scanners· privacy· department of homeland security

23:21 Oh, I have a correction to make before Before we move any further. I incorrectly stated that the sound clip of Sheila dick shit was from the BBC in fact it was from Down Under. Oh, yeah. Yeah, so I made a mistake there. I and they the producers Wrapped my knuckles for making such a mistake. It does happen from time to time, but it's still it's like an official official broadcast The guy's been fired by the way, who said that. Alright, so a couple of things. Are we gonna start light or heavy? Light or heavy? We've been laughing here. Let's do something heavy. Oh, I haven't got anything heavy. I got plenty of heavy stuff. Alright, we'll start off and I'll catch up. Okay, you want me to jump right into it? Is that what you're saying?

24:21 uh... mom look at my list of clips and see if there's anything in this one a listen that chilean singing again now go ahead well that the transportation security administration is in the news quite a bit as we uh... wheel around get my nation and what is up with gizmodo of those guys like uh... it they should be donating to the show all they seem to be doing is listening to our show in writing articles about it and and actually doing some some decent research Apparently, as of November 1st, if you refuse the naked body scanner, you're going to get an enhanced pat-down, which... Includes getting masturbated, apparently. What? There's a happy ending involved. Oh, well, okay, then that's good.

25:06 So they this has actually been quoted that's what the TSA has been angling for all these all this time sex That's what it's all about. You know the funny thing is there's none of those crazy devices in Seattle yet I hope they don't put them in they are now officially mandatory and get Monation East that just came through on Twitter this morning you cannot fly in Get Monation East unless you go through a naked body scanner here It's still kind of opt-out But what they're saying is, and I'm paraphrasing hearsay because there is nothing, well I do have something official from the TSA, but there's nothing really official about these enhanced pat-downs. But if you refuse the naked body scanner, which of course is still going to be your good right, they're going to make it so incredibly nasty for you that you're going to be begging to go through this thing. And they're insinuating you will even have a cavity search. I'm like, great.

25:58 They're going to those things give you cataracts the yes the scans Yeah, sure, but I think they give you a lot more than just cataract. They probably give you cancer. Yeah Well, here's we need to get the meme out there. Well, so they have this is uh, here's the meme it's called secure flight and The TSA is only lifting a little bit of the veil of what is going to be taking place as of November 1st Hold on Adam. Hold on. Hold on. I have to interrupt you. I'm sorry. I i've before we go on with this discussion i do guys is it just some numbers i'd i'd like to get a bit better handle is how many uh... over the last uh... i don't know eight years uh... without the scanner how many incidents have there been where we've almost lost the plane because of some terrorists that got through any would have been stopped you would have been stopped by the scanner uh... well we had the as you say over the last eight years i'm gonna say one for sure

26:57 Who? Well no, I mean, no we didn't... Well he had the underwear bomber. He wouldn't have been found out by the scanner. Oh. Ummm... Well we had the liquid bombers. No, no, no, they never did anything. Right. Ummm... Zero. So over the last eight years we've had no episodes and we know for a fact that if something does happen or even partially happens or somebody's even thinking of doing something it gets publicized big-time nothing's kept a secret because we got to keep the public kind of in a fearful state so you're telling me nothing absolutely nothing has happened in eight years 30,000 flights a day

27:41 In 8 years, a day, 30,000. Do the math. Nothing's happened and we have to walk through these idiotic scanners so they can see us naked? Wow, can I hit this one? John Cena, Borax, Pet Peeve of the Day. Do you have something to hide? I'm just asking. Do you have something to hide? Are you afraid that they're gonna see you naked? Do you have something to hide, John? You surely have nothing to hide. It's embarrassing having a 12-incher. Yeah, here we go. This is the Secure Flight Program from the TSA which kicks off November 1st. Coming soon to a checkpoint near you. At the Transportation Security Administration, your safety is our priority. TSA is partnering with airlines to phase in our new secure flight program. A behind-the-scenes process that... I love the behind-the-scenes process. Anything but transparent. It's all backstage, behind the scenes. It's a process. And don't you love... Isn't it ironic how these guys talk exactly like the movies when they're doing the Big Brother thing?

28:40 The Transportation Security Administration is here for your safety. ...standardizes the way travelers are matched against government watch lists. Under secure flight, airlines will begin asking passengers to book their travel with the name that appears on the government ID they plan to use when traveling, as well as their date of birth and gender. SecureFlight matches the information for each passenger against government watch lists to identify known and suspected terrorists. Providing this information improves the pre-flight security process and helps passengers whose names are similar to those on watch lists avoid misidentification. Is this unbelievable or what?

29:22 This costs as much money to produce as one of those machines cost to make. Secure flight does not affect the security screening that takes place at the airport. The name passengers provide... Well, it's for a reason. Slave, shut up. ...when booking their travel is used to perform watch list matching before boarding passes are issued. So small differences... So we're gonna get watch list matching before boarding passes are issued. Oh. ...on boarding passes or IDs should not impact travel. The new secure flight measures utilize state-of-the-art technology to ensure passenger information remains private. Oh, this sounds like a fiasco. State-of-the-art technology to ensure your, uh, to ensure that... Privacy. Yeah, to ensure your privacy. What does that mean? Is it one of those databases that can only hold two billion records? I mean, where does it end?

30:21 Your cooperation helps TSA keep the traveling public safe every day at every airport. For more information go to tsa.gov. You find out nothing. Eric did the calculations. 87.6 million flights have happened without an incident, without a crash, without a blow-up, without anything. So we're spending millions and millions of dollars on these machines so they can see us naked. Yeah. It's ridiculous. Well, the chat room is very happy that you have finally given us your girth and we know what the C stands for now in John C. Duvorak. That's a good one. I can use that. So anyway, so what are we going to do? There's nothing we can do about it because we're just being pushed around again by these government bureaucrats. Yes, we are. And we can't do anything about it, of course, because we have an implemented nullification

CHAPTER 10 / 40 Discussion

George Clooney, Sudan Oil Interests

George Clooney's involvement in Sudanese diplomacy is analyzed as a public relations front for Western economic interests in African oil reserves. Clooney is depicted as an "economic hitman" working with the Council on Foreign Relations to prepare the public for the eventual partitioning of Sudan to secure resources currently held by Chinese interests.

32:58 theoretically their rules in within a state could be nullified but then they could you know restrict flights I mean there's ways of them making you obey. There are ways of making you duck. So I don't know, I'm not sure. We'll start to develop these themes over the next year or so, it'll be one of our main things. So one of the top things I was following is that I've noticed George Clooney... Oh my goodness, at the White House? Is that what you're gonna say? Oh yeah, he was at the White House, then he was giving a talk with this character John Prendergast and if you look him up and then look up some of these organizations he's involved with You are witnessing or looking at a classic economic hitman. I mean George Clooney is there's you know, the White House has a flicker stream and

33:46 And he's sitting there getting a briefing from President Obama on Sudan. Yeah, so Clooney's become the go-to guy in Sudan. Why? I don't understand. I don't understand. How did he become that? What did he do? He's an actor. I've come to the conclusion that Clooney works for the government. Well, he looks great. I mean, he looks the part, right? He looks like that. He could be president. He would be a great president. Play a little of the Clooney in South Sudan and I'll tell you about this, what this is. Okay, here we go. Adlai. Well, I mean, I've made trips to China. John's been there plenty of times. You know, you can't really shame them into it. He stammers a lot. Because he's lying. So what this says, first of all, it was Haiti. He did the whole big Haiti thing, right?

34:40 where but then he was dressed down by some cia guy whoever was a bit of one of the lord shows you know in public and that was very shh the sheepish about that then he went to do dar for he's been told told to move out of the dar for thing just just concentrate on south sudan this is a big thing he is now the spokesperson for the ministry of truth it's unbelievable this speech that i did or this little talk a sitting there with this guy john prender gas The two of them are sitting there, and who do you think they're talking to? They're sitting at the Council of Foreign Relations. Of course, of course. Let's listen to the rest of this clip. You know, they're a pretty big country with big needs, and they need oil. And there's a lot of oil there right now. It's the largest oil supplier out of Africa. So it's a big number. And it's all, you know, you can go there and see Chinese workers.

35:30 and back to trucks. Oh my god, so there it is. There's oil but the Chinese are in there we need to go in and take that. Damn it, that's our oil. Who do they think they are? They're Sudanese. Send in Clooney! Well what they're telling us these two guys are is a couple of things but first there's a subtle hidden message now I want you to play the Sudan Pendergast edited clip. I edited it because this is so subtle. This is so subtle and kind of hard to pick up on that I edited the clip. This is an edited clip which emphasizes, I think, what we're really talking about here. But I'm optimistic, frankly, because I think if we can get through this period, if diplomacy wins the day, if a negotiated settlement addressing everyone's interests, there's a lot of money to be made. There's a lot of money to be made.

36:17 There's a lot of money to be made and this is not an insignificant factor and if they can figure out a way to share that there's a lot of money to be made and they can figure out a way to where to place that border and then stick the pylons in there. There's a lot of money to be made and they can figure out a way. There's a lot of money to be made to coexist as two separate entities. I can't quite pick up on the meme John. What what is it? Apparently, there's a lot of money to be made. Where is Sudan? Let me take a look at the map here for a second. So, Sudan is just south of Egypt. You go to Egypt and take a left. Who runs that place?

36:56 that well it's a it's run by a dictator who took over as a is a muslim uh... general or something i don't know how many look up on wikipedia there's a pretty good history there so it's a here's what here's let me tell you what they're setting up so you can be whatever that says a wikipedia or anyplace else is not what's going on because but if you had to read between the lines besides the fact is a lot of money to be made uh... and this guy uh... Prendergast, if anybody watches the show Rubicon, there's like this analysis firm that's kind of outside the government but they work closely with the CIA and all the intelligence agencies. And they sell information. There's a bunch of these operations, in fact many of them were at this meeting and they would introduce themselves as soon as they said the company name. It was like, yeah, the Center for Strategic Studies in the Middle East, you know, kind of thing.

37:43 all these companies that do nothing more than jam a bunch of analysts in a room and go over all kinds of interesting information and come up with ideas. Or as the woman who headed this thing, it was policy ideas. But anyway, just to cut through all that crap, what it seems is that what the plan is, is to allow south sudan to split off as an independent country that's what we're gonna support the united states and that will give us and the and it would be our you're gonna use is that the if we if it if that doesn't happen to south sudanese who are the christians in this in the split between this is a very many african countries have like a

38:24 Muslim north and a Christian south and other religions, native religions many, they can't put up with these Muslims. Wait a minute, so South Sudan of course borders on Uganda. Right. Right. And then north borders on Egypt. No. Darfur. No, Darfur is in Sudan. Okay. Right, I'm sorry. Yeah, you're right. It does border on Egypt. I'm sorry. Wow, that thing is, the Sudan is big. It's the biggest country in Africa. It's unbelievable. Yeah. So which means it's easily can be cut in half. But anyway, the point, let me just tell you what, from listening to the Council for Relations meeting, what I got out of it is what they're going to try to do.

39:14 First of all, it's the Chinese who moved into the place with, well I don't care what you guys do, kill each other, we don't care, as long as you let us, you know, drills for oil. And so essentially the Chinese, they got all the oil wells all over the coast. And so I believe that the oil field can be tapped from both the south and the northern part of Sudan. And they can do horizontal drilling now. Yeah, we can do anything we want. We're geniuses. So essentially we can't get 33 miners from 2,000 feet, but we can get oil, boy. We can do that, no problem. So we're going to cut the country in half. If we don't, the subtle threat is, well, I don't know what's going to happen. These crazy people down in the South are so irked and they got guns and tanks and Clooney goes on and on about this.

40:03 Oh, they got guns and tanks and they got guns and tanks. They're armed to the teeth. But he has to say something about the poor residents. He can't be about just about making money. He's got to be about saving someone. Otherwise, his stick doesn't work. He kind of throws it in, but it seems as the money seems to be the Muslim. He throws it in as a kind of a, yeah, humanitarian. He mentions the word a couple of times. Let's be realistic about this. It's got nothing to do with anything but oil. And so they're going to split the country in half and then they're going to go after the oil that the Chinese are drilling out of there before the Chinese get it all out of there. Apparently it's the third biggest reserve in the world or something. It's a lot of oil. Or the third biggest in Africa at least.

40:45 and that's what's going on. And we're gonna somehow, we're gonna get suckered into some sort of military action that's gonna cost us a bunch of taxpayers a bunch of money so some oil companies can go in there. Which is, I suppose, is what we do. We just have to face that reality. This is how it operates. It's an economic hitman situation, only this is a little more complicated because first we gotta split the country in half and have them get independent. That's a lot of work. Well, yeah, so what is Clooney's role in all this? To prepare the slaves to understand the messaging? I believe so, yes. Wow, because I guess they wouldn't bring in a heavy hitter like Clooney unless we really had to spend some money on splitting the country in half. This is going to cost money. Geez Louise.

41:32 and Obama's in on it. He's sitting there in the backyard. That's why Clooney's in his office hanging out. But seriously, he's got his white button-down shirt on, you know, they got their shirt sleeves rolled up and they're talking about Sudan. Yeah, George Clooney, that's right. He's the man who's gonna help us. This is crazy. Does anyone else see the idiocy of this? Apparently not. No, why would they? I mean for one thing we have to, we make the accusation, at least I kind of do, that Clooney is either working for one of these think tanks in the side or he is a go-to guy for one of the agencies.

42:11 I think he's MK Ultra. The guy has, he can't even control his own thoughts. Well, here it is. You can go that way. As far as I, I'm more, I think back more along these lines. And he gets, you know, He gets, I mean the guy's just in the right place at the right time all the time. It's a little fishy. His aunt, whoever was, Clooney, what's her name, Rosemary Clooney was always on the USO thing so she would get some connections. I'm telling you they implanted the guy early when he was just a kid. Well they probably got him to sign up early. I mean it's like those kids who come out of college.

CHAPTER 11 / 40 Discussion

Iranian Community in Los Angeles, Berkeley Spies

Anecdotes from the Iranian community in Los Angeles suggest that the three American hikers detained in Iran were actually intelligence assets. The University of California, Berkeley is characterized as a recruiting hub for the CIA, providing cover for operatives posing as students or journalists.

iran· berkeley· cia· espionage· journalists

42:47 Who we know personally as some of them yes who are recruited by the CIA immediately so they can become plants and newspapers It's funny a gallery holder friend of Mickey's was over the other day And she's had a gallery in Los Angeles, I don't know, since like 1984 or something. But she's a very kind of radical person and she has a lot of Iranian friends. In fact, Los Angeles is often called... what do you call it again? Terror... Terran what? Terranium or something like that. Like terrorist... I mean there's a huge Iranian community.

43:26 And she said that she actually knew a journalist who really was just released six months ago. Now this guy you didn't hear about in the news. He was held captive in Iran and he was actually tortured every single day. And she had tons of stories about how he actually kind of endears his torture because the guy was obsessed with New Jersey. You know, I had questions like, are there Jews in New Jersey? And the guy was like, yeah, there's tons of Jews. No, there's no Jews in New Jersey. He was completely obsessed with Tolstoy and all kinds of weird stuff. So she's talking about all these stories. So let me ask you about these other jabronis who who kind of were hiking and wandered across. Oh the three hikers from Berkeley? Yeah she says spooks. She says total spooks. Everyone knows it. The whole Iranian community, everybody knows they were total spooks. Said they're from Berkeley. She said yup spook central. Like okay nice to get it confirmed from somebody else in the art world. We've had it confirmed from two or three people. All we do is get it confirmed. Yeah that's great.

44:26 Everybody knows except the people around here in Berkeley. Well, they may know. What a perfect place to set up shop. These guys, the people in Berkeley are idiots. They keep voting in whatever Democrat runs for Congress, whoever it is, just as a rubber stamp. They don't think for themselves. They get pushed around by their local government. They're a pathetic group. Yeah. That's true. Let's set up shop there and put our CIA West Coast division in Berkeley right on the campus. It's perfect. They've got a recruiting office and everything. It's awesome. I can't get over this picture of Clooney sitting with Obama.

CHAPTER 12 / 40 Discussion

George Clooney Political Ambitions, California Elections

Speculation arises regarding George Clooney's potential transition from acting to a high-level political career, such as a U.S. Senator or Secretary of State. His public image and proximity to President Obama are viewed as foundational steps for a future run for office.

george clooney· senate· california· politics· secretary of state

45:02 I can't it's like Elvis with Nixon and he's a handsome guy you know he's just he just fall in love with like you know what George if I can just rub one out thinking of you you can go invade Sudan split up the country Letterman said that Letterman had him on the show once and he said they just including is yacking away and let him is just looking at him and and dude with that nothing to do with the conversation Letterman says You just get laid wherever you go right? That's exactly what it is. That's exactly what it is and he's perfect. He's absolutely, I wonder how they, well either they got him really young or they recruited him somehow but the guy's set for life and I think he will have a political career. Right now he's handy in the role that he's playing but he could be our president easily. Yeah no I think we might be looking at this should be on the prediction list

45:52 Clooney the senator or a president probably not a governor's too much work now He'll do the fast track senator senator president. Yeah senator short-term You don't want to stay in the Senate too long like Hillary because you have to get in and get out otherwise you get a record or He could be appointed Secretary of State yeah, then I could dad that would not go over no I don't know I wish he was running in the California elections. I got my voter thing in. He'd beat anybody. I'm so confused. No wonder the process is... Look at these ballots.

CHAPTER 13 / 40 Discussion

Law and Order SVU, Anti-Soda Propaganda

Law & Order: Special Victims Unit is identified as a vehicle for government-aligned social engineering, specifically targeting the soda industry. Recent episodes are noted for equating soda companies with Big Tobacco and promoting the idea that sugary drinks are responsible for childhood obesity and mental health issues.

law and order svu· soda tax· high fructose corn syrup· aspartame· big tobacco

46:31 I don't know all these I gonna vote for like the treasurer and all this stuff Yeah, and and meanwhile all those the only commercials that are running here is Whitman sucks Jerry Brown sucks Fiorina sucks Barbara Boxer sucks Everybody sucks. Welcome to California. I'm sure it's not different anywhere else, but it's it's it's just it's crazy. It's everybody sucks Everyone's evil now, of course, that's true But I don't understand how the slaves put up with it. Can we have one guy saying, you know, whatever happened to, hey, I'm gonna fix everything, damn it. We got none of that here. So on my clip list, well actually there's, I've got, I do have a bunch of stuff that we're going to run out of material, but I do have a bunch, I found, I know I'm going to get a lot, anyone who saw SVU last, the SVU by the way, Law & Order SVU is the

47:28 uh... message mean machine is the one that the whatever the message whatever obama wants you to know it's in the instance and what are the ratings on uh... specially high unit i don't have the numbers i don't have the denielson's appear but it is not it showed the show is a is is is very successful but it's not like a number one show is not that many ncis takes that i think But anyway, but NCIS is more of a comedy action adventure. It's different. They have a couple, actually I have a clip, they were memeing a little bit as well, NCIS this week. I'm looking at ratings. I'd like to know what the special victims unit, I mean a lot of the country must watch that show.

48:08 Yeah, and they're putting most of their work into it. I mean, just count the number of producers! Right, and we should look at some of these names. We should find out what these guys are. Well, here's the name that you want to find out. I looked at a guy, I couldn't find him, but the guy who produced, he was the co-producer, which is a bullshit title, uh... and then he was the writer and and with the love friend of mine worked on a law and order staff as a writer and a producer and he says the producers are the writers this shows his group is kinda group written but he he was the writer in this it says written by and the guy's name is speed weed speed weed? yeah no that can't be speed weed here we go now i've got a link right here

48:58 Interesting. This is from 2009. Apparently he was on the crew, you know, I guess. He was the guy selling the way I would say he's the dope seller and the guy who sells meth. I mean, that's what it sounds like. On the show? He's the pusher from the show? No, I mean, the guy that helps the crew out. Speed Weed. Anyway, come on. What kind of a name is this? Hippies raised this kid, obviously. Hey, man. Hey, Speed Weed, dude. What are we going to call our kid, man? I think we should call him Speed Weed. That's right. Wow. Alright. Yeah, he seems to be a mysterious, mysterious guy. But yeah, he's clearly the one that brings the dope on set for the actors.

49:40 Either that or he's anti-dope. And he was raised by hippies. I mean, see, either way. Anyway, so, but the point of this is, is that the, a lot of the country is controlled by passing on these messages and they get into the mean pool and people start to really believe what is said and it works. This is psyops is what we call this. Yes, and this PSYOPs this week, ladies and gentlemen, was to pull the... This is an Obama thing, it's right out of the White House. Let's stop promoting... And by the way, this may have something to do with the fact that the Coke and Pepsi people didn't contribute enough money to the campaigns.

50:21 So let's blast the soda people and how we gonna do is well. They said I have a writers meeting well Let me think what we can do let's equate them with the tobacco companies Hey, hey who produces that show who's the big producer is that a wall? Hey, we'll see hey man listen we you know those like the Pepsi and coke guys like it They didn't really didn't do a good job for us so uh we want to go fuck with him fuck with him I bring those fuckers down will ya So let's start with this. This is a very long clip, but I've never, to be honest about it, I have never seen, this is like a megabyte clip I got here. I have never seen it laid on so thick.

51:00 This is the, uh, it's one minute and four seconds. It's not that lit, not that big. It's not short. This is the SVU, SVU Soda Kills Kids Like Tobacco Does clip. Soda used to mean fun, good times, America. But now it means 300 pound kids getting winded walking up the school steps. Yeah, people say we're as bad as cigarette companies. You don't see me out there forcing soda down kids' throats. Big Tobacco said the same thing. Didn't work out too well in court, did it? Well, Lindsay Elding is why we're not in court. She was sexy smart given charm to Neanderthals on the other side. Oh, man. Good good. That's a laugh Lindsay Yelding and all the soda companies know their products are poison is that why you refused a hundred grand? They offered your organization that was a bribe to silence us I

51:43 We were about to pass a tax on soda when that get off the couch campaign killed it. That was Lindsay Elding's brainchild. Well, people should exercise more. Of course, but she distracted everyone from the simple fact that soda's bad for kids. That's Davy Gamm's mother. She'll tell you what Soda did to him. Davy was 12 when he took his life. I tried to make him stop with the cola, but he was addicted to it. Soda made him kill himself. I collected all the research. That's great!

52:19 Isn't that a winner so wait a minute is Glenn Beck on board with this as well with that whole Because there's an aspartame meme that is running around right now Yeah, and of course I I think we've we pretty much all know that aspartame is poison. It's highly addictive It makes you go blind. It's all it's it's a poisonous substance It is in everything try to get a pack of gum that doesn't have aspartame in it I defy you. I defy you. I saw like a Wrigley's double mint at the at the smoke shop the other day I was like, oh my gosh, that's like old-school chewing gum, you know sticks of gum. It's like yes. Oh great I'd love to buy some and I flip it over aspartame Everything has aspartame in it. So if it's diet soda, then yeah I can imagine where the kid offs himself because of diet soda, but this is all about the obesity thing and uh, I

53:07 Wow, it's big tobacco. So to make it worse, I got one more, two more actually short clips. We'll play the little short clip here which I thought was really interesting because they're going to get all kinds of pressure on this one. Play the HFCS makes you fat. Just listen to this. High fructose corn syrup can make you obese. So they just dropped that bomb in the middle of the show. Which by the way is no longer... Well I think this is part of the aspartame meme. They're trying to get rid of high fructose corn syrup which is now called corn sugar. They've rebranded it because there's a war on for that.

53:46 It's corn sugar, it's not high fructose corn syrup. Right, which of course as we predict on this show will lead to them eventually changing the word to sugar. It'll just be called sugar. Alright, so here's the final law and order clip. Now the final line which I want to bring this up because this is your little bit of neuro-linguistic programming by using associative words. So what they use in this case is the word push as in drug pusher. I mean, you know, somebody who forces you to get hooked. And so to use it in this context, as you'll hear, is obviously meant to have a psychological effect on the listener. One of the most expensive neighborhoods. No, that's not it. Stop, stop, stop. Company pushes soda. Sorry about that.

54:33 Little confusing. She had a genius for corporate giving. And it doesn't bother you that the money came from a company that pushes soda? Wow. So in other words, if Coca-Cola wants to sponsor something, this is a company that push... Yeah, they push it. That's what they sell. Yeah. It's not like an illegal product. The company that pushes soda. Oh, this does it bother you? You're taking money from a company that pushes soda? become a bad thing. They're gonna ban it, they're gonna ban advertising, that's coming up. They're gonna ban advertising for these soda companies because they didn't cough up enough money during the last political round and they're not coughing it up now. I'm warning you out there, the Coca-Cola people and the Pepsi people and those shareholders, they're gonna ban advertising of these products on television and your stock's gonna go to the tank.

CHAPTER 14 / 40 Discussion

Workplace Smoking Bans, Hiring Discrimination

Reports indicate an increasing trend of companies refusing to hire smokers, a practice that is criticized as a slippery slope toward further lifestyle discrimination. The discussion highlights the irony of employment policies that protect various identities while allowing exclusion based on legal habits like smoking or consuming soda.

smoking bans· employment law· discrimination· california· human resources

55:26 So short on the Coca-Cola company and PepsiCo and I think you're... Well, they can get out of it. They don't short yet because if they start coughing up enough... Enough money. They start doing enough payoff to the Congress, you know, just tons of tobacco companies. But the tobacco companies in the long run, they really didn't work. No, it won't work for these guys either. And here's where it's really headed because we've been tracking this about people being asked if they're smokers on job applications. This is rampant. Adam and John, getting caught up on the episodes, this type of thing is becoming very common where I work. The company I work for made it policy a couple of years they will not hire any smokers, period. Well, it's actually illegal in California to ask that question.

56:16 uh... the higher of a tight i have an anecdote though well the hiring policy and this is what i love we will recruit higher train promote persons in all job titles without regard to sex race color religion gender pregnancy ancestry national origin aid sexual orientation gender identity military or veteran status genetic information physical or mental disability uh... except where the disability prevents the individual being able to perform the essential function of the job and cannot be reasonably reasonably accommodated me you can be Deformed, crippled, retarded, transsexual, bastard, but if you smoke, sorry, no job for you. That's crazy! And so what is it next? Do you smoke? Do you drink soda? I'm sorry, there's no place for you here at Big Co.

57:06 They come here that smokes first and they're coming for everything people you can laugh of and I said this before you can laugh about Oh, it's great. The smokers is killing us. Anyway secondhand smoke, but that's just the start of it now They're coming for your soda. They're coming for everything except for weed or your weed is good and your and your heroin and your heroin in the right direction and your heroin oddly enough Yeah, your heroin is good. Oh the heroin for sure. Yeah, so anyway That's what I spotted that I thought it was like wow I mean these guys it wasn't even close to being subtle so I'm now Making SVU a weekly watch because it's essentially a culture watch. It's what we do so you don't have to I'm so glad you're doing that John Yeah, I know you I don't think you could put up with that show. It's a little bad acting on that show is just enough to make it throw up It's really bad

Law and Order Los Angeles, Rich Boy Gangs

A brief review of the new Law & Order: Los Angeles series mentions a plotline involving a gang of wealthy surfers. The show is described as a "buddy cop" program that lacks the heavy-handed messaging found in the Special Victims Unit spin-off.

law and order los angeles· nbc· surfing· gangs· television

58:01 I do have one thing. I did watch, I didn't find anything on the regular Law & Order Los Angeles, which has become kind of a buddy cop show. It's not even, it doesn't have any memes that I can tell, at least not major ones. But there was a, they did have a teaser for it, which does have kind of a new meme in it, which is the clip, you might as well play it, which is the LNO not over clip. One of the most expensive neighborhoods. Pro surfer, huge talent. Is the last place you'd expect to find a gang. The Moon Bay crew, a bunch of rich boy surfers with attitude. But these gangsters have real deep pockets. You don't want anybody spoiling that view. You're just trying to make me look like a terrible person. I'm describing what you are. A thug. But this one's not over. Step away from the girl! Until the fat guy gets teased.

Climate Change Skepticism, Harold Lewis Resignation

Professor Harold Lewis's resignation from the American Physical Society is highlighted, in which he labeled global warming a "pseudoscientific fraud." The discussion touches on the politicization of science and the financial pressures that prevent climatologists from speaking out against the consensus.

58:50 New Law & Order Los Angeles next on NBC. It's not over till the fat It's like it's so wrong on so many levels to even say Sorry I wanted to move on to a story that we missed Last week, but you actually sent it to me and even though I had it in the show notes. I'll put it again this week about the emeritus professor of physics at the University of California Santa Barbara who resigned

59:46 Yeah, he resigned from the Climate Change Group saying it's a bunch of bullcrap and he's not putting up with it anymore. And when I ran that, I ran it on the Twitter feed, you know, I said, hey, look at this. I got a whole bunch of these robots, you know, these Twitter robots that apparently are following me. I blocked them all. Yeah. So, well, that doesn't mean anything. You just, what are you, a denialist? You know what I mean? I don't sign up for that. and i'm not on twitter to did to do twitter to me is a kind of communications vehicle and then a crowdsourcing thing i and i think for micro blogging i'm not there to to take any guff as soon as somebody gives me any of our waters you're blocked your brother and i'm a mechanic you're so blocked i don't need guff i get in plenty of guff on my blog i get guff when i'm at the store i get guff from the tsa i mean i don't need to guff and ladies and gentlemen are that is the word of the day

1:00:39 Guff g u f f John double f. Yeah, I believe so what is the exact definition of guff bull crap? I'm headed your way somehow. I don't think this is the thesaurus is going to give me bull crap as a headed your way Headed your way. Yeah, we you're getting guff you you said it's not just something that's that's free for me It's got a noun slang ridiculous or insolent talk Hmm sounds right Let me see if there's any, no that's about it. Insolence would be the good, would be the good. Nonsense baloney. Backtalk baloney. I don't need a bunch of backtalk baloney. I don't need no, I'm a backtalk baloney bigot. I don't need no guff from you. Shut up yo. So please have a read of this, of the guy's letter which the Telegraph and Gitmo Nation East published in its entirety. It's great.

1:01:36 And the guy just lays it out there. He says, you know, it's totally, I'm not, the global warming scam, he says, with literally trillions of dollars driving it has corrupted so many scientists and carried APS before like a rogue wave. It's the greatest and most successful pseudo scientific fraud I've seen in my long life as a physicist. Anyone who has the faintest doubt that this is so should force himself to read the climate gate documents which lay it bare. I don't believe that any real physicist, nay scientist, can read that stuff without revulsion. It would almost make that revulsion a definition of the word scientist. Wow. Yeah, he wasn't happy. You know, I had dinner with the CEO recently and he says to me, just casually, he's in my bro... somehow it came up in the conversation, his brother's a climatologist.

1:02:25 And I said, what does he think about global warming? He says, it's a bunch of bull crap. But he says he won't talk about it and none of the other professionals won't talk about it because it's become politicized and they get nothing but guff if they say anything. So it's not worth the effort. So they just shut up. And not just that they get guff, but they don't get no moolah. It's all of your funding gets turned off. That's the real problem is science. And this is what's in the guy's letter as well, is that science is now basically funded by big corporations. And that's how it works and so it goes. And Al Gore, where is he? The horny sex crazy poodle? He's been... Well we spotted that early. They've decided to take him out. Yeah, he's been pushed to the sidelines. I'm gonna show my support by donating to No Agenda. Imagine all the people who could do that. Oh yeah, that'd be fab. On No Agenda, in the morning.

Congressional Insider Trading, Wall Street Journal Report

Research from the Wall Street Journal and CNBC reveals that members of Congress and their staffers frequently profit from stock trades based on non-public legislative information. The discussion emphasizes that such trading is currently legal for lawmakers, as they are not technically corporate insiders.

1:11:14 All right, did I see that good do we get everything? Yeah, I think we got everything there I believe so, you know, you know, we've been talking for a while John about How rich our politicians are Yeah, they really loaded these guys. These public servants. Well, what's interesting is that... Why do the public servants make more money than the public? Well, I'll tell you why. Because they pass laws and they have all kinds of inside information. They know what companies to short, what companies to invest in. And the Wall Street Journal, there's three links that you want to take a look at under elites in the show notes at noagendershow.com.

1:11:54 The first one is the Wall Street Journal Capitol Hill stock trading what the academic research concludes. The second one is congressional staffers gain from trading in stocks. So this is some research that has been done by the Wall Street Journal and essentially it has a number of examples of people on Capitol Hill who are making a big a big bank by investing in companies depending on the laws that are being passed but the third article which actually comes from CNBC uh... says that it actually does not appear to be illegal for lawmakers to trade based upon information that they have because they don't you know they don't actually work for the company they're not in the industry and there is no law on the books that stops these people from

1:12:44 passing laws and investing based upon the knowledge they have. Sounds like a good gig. Yeah, I'm thinking they should either A. give us a gig or B. support the show. Yeah, they could. They could get more than enough money. By the way, if you want to support this program, unlike anything else out there, we just ask you to support it. We don't take any money from commercial interests or play commercials or interrupt ourselves or we're not beholden to anybody. Except I'm beholden to John and he's beholden to me and that's tough enough. And you can go to Dvorak.org slash NA or channel Dvorak dot com slash NA and of course noagendashow.com has all the links to the support page. And we depend on it entirely and we're putting a lot of work into the show and we appreciate it if you help us out. Yep. So I have some news from Gitmo Nation Forehead dot from producer Kenneth from Oslo who is currently in Varanasi, India.

Commonwealth Games Security, Delhi Lockdown

Reports from Delhi describe extreme security measures for the Commonwealth Games, including sandbag bunkers, machine guns, and the confiscation of everyday items like coins and house keys. The hosts compare these measures to the anticipated security environment for the upcoming London Olympics.

delhi· india· commonwealth games· security· checkpoints

1:13:49 And of course the Commonwealth games are due to start there. Let me tell you a little bit about the security, he says, here in Delhi. Armed police everywhere. Every now and then a sandbag bunker with machine guns on street corners. X-ray and metal detectors everywhere. I took the subway, had to go through a metal detector, they x-rayed my bag, I had to pat down, and only then could I enter the station, which also had a sandbag bunker and a whole group of armed soldiers. At the stadium they took everything liquid from me including sunscreen and hand sanitizer, even coins. We later heard... Oh, well there you go. We later heard people even got their house keys confiscated. The exploding coins. And their house keys were confiscated. Hey, Gitmo Nation East, bet you can't wait until the Olympics hit, huh? That's gonna rock. It's gonna be so much fun in the UK. In East London. It's gonna be fantastic.

1:14:44 You're gonna be on total lockdown and there's a good possibility the lockdown won't go away afterwards. Yeah, just leave it in. It works so well. We did get a donation from an Indian, it's rare but we get them, they're a huge 700 million, what a billion English speaking people and two people listen to the show. And he said, no you can't mention my name, I don't want to know, because he says, you're right, the Indians are incredibly cheap and if my name was mentioned I would be shunned. I would be killed. I would be shunned by his family. For giving somebody some money. Really? Is that wrong in India? Is that cultural that you can't give someone money? I guess that's why there's so many beggars. Huh. You mean that's not a good gig then? Being a beggar in India? I think that's probably the worst thing you could possibly have happen to you. And then my son would argue that well if you believe in

Boeing 787 Dreamliner, Oxygen System Risks

Insiders raise concerns about the Boeing 787 Dreamliner's passenger oxygen system, noting that the high-pressure 3000 PSI cylinders located above seats could act as potential explosives. Additionally, the removal of reservoir bags from oxygen masks is criticized as a cost-cutting measure that compromises passenger comfort and safety.

1:18:31 And for 24 hours, the guy every 20 seconds has to hit the button. Every 20 seconds. He's talking to you and then he hits the button. And there's a light that flashes and starts to flash quicker because if he doesn't hit it within 20 seconds the thing stops. I mean, it's a stupefying job. Completely stupefying. Now along with trains good planes bad I would like to let you in on a little inside information which may come out in the news. This is about the new Boeing 787 Dreamliner. Now Boeing has posted, it's in the show notes at NoahJennerShow.com, has posted a video of them testing the oxygen mask system on the 787 Dreamliner. Now what our

1:19:16 Insider, who will remain anonymous, has written, he said, please notice the number of masks that are failing and do not drop down from the ceiling. And this insider is actually was in this business, the mask business and also the oxygen business. And here's one of the interesting things that there is always a number of failures, the masks don't drop down. Also they've done away with the reservoir bags, so now it's just a mask. Have you noticed this subtle change? It's on airlines everywhere. Well that bag is so when you puke up, the puke has some place to go. No, but the bags are now gone. They're just having... Why?

1:19:56 Well, it's an improvement. However... Now if you puke, you have to breathe it. It wasn't for puke. Yeah, it was for puke. That's the whole idea. No, it was not for puke. You get in one of these things, the drink drops down this bad, people get sick because the plane's going crazy and you start puking into the bag and it goes into that little bag. That's what the bag's for. It's not for puking. But anyway, they've done away with the puke bags. Suit yourself. They've done away with the puke bags. Apparently though, these masks, they warp. They are made from material that is not thermally stable, so when the plane heats up, the masks shrink and may no longer fit some people. So if you got a big head, you're screwed on the Dreamliner.

1:20:42 But here's the major issue with the 787 PAX system, that's the passenger oxygen system. Above each seat there's a 3000 PSI cylinder of oxygen. And the joke in the oxygen industry is, the best part of the system is it eliminates the necessity for TSA because a bomb is already installed in each seat above for your convenience. 3000 PSI oxygen cylinder above each seat? Well obviously they made it that high pressure to make it as small a cylinder as they could, right? Right, but that's a bomb! Yeah! Well while you're looking at high-pressured devices by the way, the tick right now, as far as I know, unless it's higher, the last time I heard

Upper Moreland Township, Unlocked Car Fines

A suburban township in Pennsylvania is debating a proposal to fine homeowners who leave their cars unlocked. Local police argue that unlocked vehicles create "open season" for thieves, while critics view the potential fines as an overreach of local government authority.

1:21:26 the pressure of pounds per square inch pressure on his hydrogen car and by the way if you haven't noticed we haven't heard much about hydrogen cars recently have we? No we have not. But the gas tank for a hydrogen car fuel cell car is 10,000. That's a driving bomb. Yeah totally. Outstanding. Let me see. Gitmo Nation Philly. It's kind of a funny little Funny little law that they're working on there. Lock up your car or face the fine. A suburban township is debating whether or not to impose fines on homeowners who don't lock their cars. It's happening in Upper Moreland Township in Montgomery County where people there have mixed feelings about the proposal and that's where NBC 10's Doug Schimel joins us live with the story tonight. Doug? Now, I love, this is great news.

1:22:18 So, we have to go live to the scene. And do you think we can get some idiot to give us a quote that will say this is a good thing, John? Do you think it's possible? I well I mean you'd look around and you'd look at this by the dumbest guy you could find and he wants to be everyone wants to be on TV this one is probably the best ever and police claim they don't really have a lot of crime here and that they say is a good thing but then they say perhaps it is that sense of security that might be to blame for the crimes they do have What? We have a theft from auto problem in our township. On one hand they feel safe enough to leave their cars unlocked here, but on the other police say they have created open season for thieves in Upper Moreland Township. It's an enabling issue. It provides the people with these drug abuse problems to be able to just go down the block, check doors and grab something of value to trade for drugs. I don't understand how they come up with this that they're going to enforce you locking your car.

1:23:19 What is this a part of? What program are we not understanding? What did we miss here? Well, just off the top of my head, I'd say it's part of the bigger picture, which is to make local and state people look stupid because the great geniuses are all in the federal government who would never do something like this. Investigators claim three quarters of the car break-ins here are because the car was left unlocked. want to be able to ticket people who keep leaving their cars unlocked in a public area. I think they should, yeah. Because you're not supposed to keep a car... Yeah, she is. This is our person. This is the genius. This is the genius. Because you're not supposed to keep a car unlocked. You're supposed to lock your car and do the right thing. If my truck gets broken into, I lose my livelihood.

1:24:08 It was do the right thing. Are you crazy? It was do the right thing. I want to just shout out to people that work in media and especially television. Try to get someone that is actually understandable when you put them on camera. I had no idea what she said. It was do the right thing. It was perfect. Miss Swan. So we really missed a big one on Sunday's show, which was pointed out to us a couple of times about... So we received a note from one of our producers who said, you know, there's this new survey being taken.

DNA Swabbing, Roadside Sobriety Checks

New legislation in Michigan and British Columbia aims to implement roadside saliva tests to detect drug and alcohol use. Concerns are raised that these tests are a pretext for collecting DNA samples from citizens without a warrant, further eroding privacy rights under the guise of public safety.

1:24:44 people want to the the surveyors ask you questions about it's basically about drinking and driving but then there's this this new thing that are starting to move in where they want to swab your cheek to see if you've been drinking and actually people say a couple of people sent me bills apparently in Michigan There's a bill that would allow police to give drivers a saliva test and this would of course not just be to see if you've been drinking but to see if you have been using illegal drugs such as marijuana and cocaine. We talked about this on the last show. But the big thing we missed is what else do you swab someone's cheek for? Oh yeah DNA, we forgot to mention that. DNA, that's right. This is the big DNA push. Yeah I think you're right. I think and I think we did miss it.

1:25:40 That's pretty outrageous. DNA swabbing, an alcohol check, sobriety check, checkpoint, slave, let me swab your cheek, let me stick some cotton in your face. In British Columbia, they're also moving into the lowering of the legal alcohol limit, going from 0.8 to 0.5. 0.5? I'm sorry, 0.05. What does that calculate? Just one beer? 0.05. Is that possible? Yes, 0.05. Yeah, 0.05. Yeah, that's what's here. It's one beer. Yeah. One beer and then you better pee and you're drunk. You better sleep for three hours because if they catch you a slave, you're out and you're going to be wearing some Gitmo jewelry. This is happening everywhere and we're all just like, oh, okay, that's good. That's groovy. Not a problem whatsoever. Hey, how's the... miner number 28 has just come out.

Vince Vaughn Movie Trailer, Anderson Cooper Gay Slur Controversy

A controversy involving a Vince Vaughn movie trailer leads to a discussion on the evolving use of the word "gay" as a pejorative. Anderson Cooper's criticism of the trailer is analyzed alongside the historical shift in the word's meaning from "happy" to a specific sexual orientation and its subsequent use as a general slang term by younger generations.

vince vaughn· anderson cooper· gay· linguistics· censorship

1:27:39 Billy Vaughn, Ray Vaughn, Siobhan, Vaughn, Vince Vaughn. Vince Vaughn, yeah, Vince Vaughn the actor. There was a movie trailer that came out that got everybody all upset. They had to pull the trailer and I have a clip of the part that was offensive since we're talking about offensive stuff and this is kind of real news, it's a movie. and then it was followed up by Anderson Cooper Vanderbilt in his commentary on this horrible, horrible thing that took place in this trailer that was just the movie trailer that was just so offensive. Abhorrent. Here we go. Ladies and gentlemen, electric cars are gay.

1:28:19 I mean not homosexual gay, but you know my parents are chaperoning the dance Gay, I was sitting in a preview in a movie theater over the weekend And there was a preview of a movie and in it the actor said that's so gay And I was shocked that not only did they put that in a movie for that they put that in the preview They thought that was okay to put in the preview to the movie to get people to go and see it And I just find those words those terms we gotta we gotta do something to change to make those words unacceptable because those words are hurting kids. Oh okay it's hurting the children. It's the G word now this is this is what it's he's the G word Anderson Vanderbilt Cooper is the G word this is crazy for a long time in the 80s not even that long ago you just called it look gay used to mean happy

1:29:12 Dad knows even before I mean all throughout the 20s 30s 40s 50s It was only until like in the 80s that it was all of a sudden gay was was stolen by the gay community And redefined and now we can't use the word gay it's the G word with I mean there's so much music that was written using the word gay. Oh he's so gay, meaning he's having a good time or he's happy. It meant happy. But then for Anderson... It literally meant happy. Now you can't use the word at all because the word was stolen by one community and why? I don't understand how you get from... how you can take that word and then make it refer to homosexuality. It's always baffled me.

1:29:57 And then by the way, then the women, because they were going to be the gay females, and then they stopped liking the word. So now you have a lesbian and gay alliance. Is it a lesbian gay? No! If the word has further been changed to mean only gay, only homosexual males. Pretty soon you'll just be- You can keep up with this stuff! You won't be able to speak, you'll just be able to mumble. Because everything you say will be offensive. And for Anderson Vanderbilt Cooper, who I believe is homosexual. No, he's out. Yeah. He came out recently. Right, so and for him to then stand up and say it's offensive and hurting the children.

1:30:38 That's a bit much. Anderson? Yeah, since the pejorative use of the word gay in modern lingo is mostly was developed by... Gays! ...by millennials and ex-gens. But I mean... You say it all the time, oh that's so gay, that's so gay. Yeah, and let's face it, electric cars are gay. Doesn't mean that it turns you into homosexual, they're just like... It's even a reference to homosexuals, it's not anymore. We're trying to get the word back. Yeah, let's, if anything, can we have gay back? Can we just, can we take that word, I mean, retard, okay, you can have retard, I don't need to use that. But can we have gay back? I think we should be able to. Well, we're not getting it. Well...

Hip-Hop Culture, No Agenda Song Proposal

Netherlands Cashless Pilot, Hotel ISP Regulations

The Netherlands is implementing a pilot project for a completely cashless shopping area, requiring all transactions to be made via chip cards. Simultaneously, Dutch hotels are being forced to register as Internet Service Providers (ISPs) to comply with European data retention laws, effectively turning them into surveillance nodes.

1:33:53 Nicki Minaj John you've got to watch this shit man. This is where the kids are at we've got it We've got to get down to the to the kids we Yeah, we've got to start sending him a message. You know so we we got a we got a driver slip one in we got a dream We got to drop some beats on these kids we can do this so anyway That's a call out to all of our producers give my nation lowlands Very interesting development, actually two interesting developments and of course they are in complete lockdown this country. I feel really bad, you know, this used to be one of the freest, greatest, you know, the libertines ruled in, certainly in Amsterdam and now the Dutch Telecommunications Authority has announced Dutch hotels must register as internet service providers.

1:34:42 and have to abide by the European regulations on data retention. Can it get any nuttier than this? That's ridiculous. Oh yeah, well they're up in arms but they have to. They are of course providing an internet service to their guests and they're gonna have to... Pumping somebody else's ISP info in there. They're not doing deals. Shut up slave. and keep the data. So the hotel in downtown Amsterdam is like doing some cross licensing with Sprint and Orange to make sure that they got some peering going on? Dude, you're preaching to the choir here. But that is what's happening. They're saying you gotta register as an ISP. Because the government over there is obviously a bunch of boneheaded idiots. They don't know what an ISP actually does for a living. That's not even the government, it's the regulatory authority.

1:35:33 But in Amsterdam, and this is the big one, they're doing a pilot project. A complete shopping area is going cash-free! Completely cashless. You can no longer pay with cash in these stores. And of course it's for your security. Because you know there's less robberies if there's no cash so you cannot pay with cash in these stores you can only pay with a chip card which is funny that they call it a chip card a Pin pass which is kind of the Dutch equivalent of a debit card or a credit card It was it called a pin pass in pass pass No pass PAS as in pass a pin pass

1:36:24 Yeah, so that's it. They're going completely cashless. Now of course the sad thing is that there are limits on how much you can pin per day already. See that doesn't help. No of course not. And people just like, yeah this is great. Yeah it's really handy. It's so easy not to have to use cash. It's great. Gitmo Nation now the center of the slave universe. The Netherlands used to transport the slaves the Dutch great at it and now they've just made their people into slaves Well, that's the irony of it cashless slaves. It is total irony and sad. We love you. Anyway, you guys should support us So what else we got? What other depressing news do we have? I Wanted have you heard about this? Where is this thing here?

National Ignition Facility, Fusion Energy Experiment

The National Ignition Facility in Livermore, California, has begun experiments using 192 lasers to achieve nuclear fusion. Despite a $3.5 billion price tag, skeptics doubt the facility's ability to produce more energy than it consumes, comparing the massive structure to science fiction movie sets.

national ignition facility· livermore· fusion· laser· energy

1:37:28 It's like it's not a large Hadron Collider, but it's now it's this this new thing the National Ignition Facility Have you heard of this? No, it sounds ominous. I like the name. Yeah. Well, it's actually let me I should do I have my Skype open? I probably don't um, I need to Show you this picture that national I'm loading the page now, which is it's from boston.com the big picture and so they like to put 8 million 15 megabyte pictures on one web page, which is really handy except when you want to open it quickly to this national ignition facility. They're trying to create some kind of

1:38:08 I don't know if it's a nuclear explosion type thing. Oh, here it is. The page is finally loading. But they want to get more energy out than they're putting in. It's like a three and a half billion dollar project here. Creating a miniature star on Earth. This doesn't sound good. Creating a miniature star on Earth is the goal of the National Ignition Facility, home to the world's largest and highest energy laser, and it's in Livermore, California. On September 29, 2010, the NIF completed its first integrated ignition experiment where it focused its 192 lasers on a small cylinder housing a tiny frozen capsule containing hydrogen fuel, briefly bombarding it with 1 megajoule of laser energy.

1:39:02 The experiment was the latest in a series of tests leading to a hoped-for ignition where the nuclei of the atoms of the fuel inside the target capsule are made to fuse together releasing tremendous energy, potentially more energy than was put in to start the initial reaction, becoming a valuable power source. The NIF has cost over $3.5 billion and is part of the federally funded Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. uh... yet they've been working on this since the eighties this is what they say nineteen ninety seven here but they hope to achieve fusion by two thousand twelve that doesn't doesn't sound good crap that nineteen ninety seven you and i was an info world in the in the early nineteen eighties i went out there with john mark often they were talking about it then it was like nineteen eighty-two but they've built this thing now and and it looks like uh... it

1:40:00 What was the name of that Jodie Foster movie where she's in the sphere and she does space travel? Oh yeah. It looks like that thing. It's huge! It's astronomically large. I don't know man. Yeah. They shoot this one joule of energy into the dot there of hydrogen. It produces one half joule of energy. I mean that's what we get out of these experiments. It's groovy. Well I think it's... You are impressed. Well, I'm impress- I don't like the fact that it's anywhere in California at all, let alone near you.

1:40:38 And they're trying to create fusion and all kinds of bangs. It would just take out Livermore and part of Pleasanton. Okay, but you'd be safe. Probably do Scott Adams, the cartoonist who lives there. You'd be safe, is that what you're saying? I'm pretty sure. I got a hill beach. There's like a mountain, like a little coastal mountain range behind me, between me and that valley. So the explosion would probably waft up and over Into the sky it wouldn't I don't think we could be affected. Well anyway. I just skype you the link you should take a look at it It's kind of kind of creepy Kind of creepy. What's your what else you got here John you got any I got there again. There's one. There's one clip I don't know if we played or not. It's the X right. What is it the X and the new meme or something? What is that thing X factor buzz term? Yeah? What is that? I don't know

CHAPTER 30 / 40 Discussion

European Economic Crisis, George Soros, Lisbon Treaty

George Soros's warnings about a deflationary spiral in Europe are discussed in the context of German austerity measures. The hosts revisit the Lisbon Treaty, arguing that the European Union was designed as a mechanism to strip wealth from citizens through managed economic stagnation.

george soros· germany· eurozone· lisbon treaty· austerity

1:41:31 It's your clip, it's not mine. It's an old clip, I keep moving it forward and now I don't know what it is. Well, let's listen to it. The reserves at a rapid pace over the last few months have got relatively few choices to where to put the money. And the fact that China is showing clear support for Greece is China still needs to diversify, Europe is still one of the places that is putting out money. the moscow's to be my concern i what the hell is that you know what it is a six-month-old is going to see nbc world where they have these these guys the slobbering people that that's go on and on for hours and hours about me with all this analysis a good example of this is the other clip which is sitting there and uh... waiting to be heard uh... which book which is kinda interesting from the perspective of international finance if you want to see what you were gonna see a collapse of the economic

1:42:20 European Economic Union at some point and you might as well play that clip in advance of this happening. That would be blame Germany? Yeah. Everybody's bleeding the implementation of austerity measures and said spending cuts would only push the eurozone into a deflation spiral. Deficit reduction by a creditor country such as Germany is in direct contradiction of the lessons learned from the Great Depression of the 1930s. It's liable to push Europe into a period of prolonged stagnation or worse. Well if he's saying it, then that's the plan, right? Soros is always on board with this stuff.

1:43:03 Yeah, and so we're talking about long stagnation. Which means bread lines, right? I guess, probably. Well, let's see how the Germans feel about what George Soros has to say. Sylvia is in Frankfurt. The Germans, it seems to me, are doing very well, thank you very much, with their fiscal austerity. Why should they care about the rest of Europe? Well, one of the lessons that the Germans fortunately or unfortunately learned from the depression is that you have to fight hyperinflation. That's why we're so inflation paranoid. But now you're quite right. I mean it seems to me, it's always safe to blame the Germans, let's face it, but it seems to me as if everybody's saying because we all can't do the right thing, the right thing would be austerity, the right thing would get your house in order, bring your budget deficits down, we do the wrong thing for a while. And because the Germans

1:43:51 We should really rewind this back to 2007 when we started this show. Well, which I think started with a lot of conversation about the Lisbon Treaty, which I at the time read in its entirety and You know people you kind of forget about stuff, you know, it's just like that was news and whatever and you know the French were against it that Almost everyone was against it. But only a couple countries got to vote for it or vote on the issue and

1:44:42 And then the Dutch later didn't even get to vote on it. The British were promised a vote, but that never happened. And everyone thought that this was just about, you know, hey, having the same money. It kind of made sense. That's the way it was sold to us. I was there at the time. Yeah, it was just so we can have the same money. It's going to be great. You don't have to change your money when you cross borders. And really it turns out that this was all one big scam to take your money away from you. And now it's happening. It's happening in what they call austerity measures. And now they're blaming each other and I think that you're right John, I think we can actually look at possible war talk between France and Germany in the next couple years. It's distressing. It is. But the fact that it's just, you know, we just, whatever.

Anna Chapman, Russian Bank Appointment

Former Russian spy Anna Chapman has reportedly taken a high-level position at a bank in Moscow following her deportation from the United States. The move is seen as a way to capitalize on her celebrity status rather than a continuation of her alleged intelligence work.

anna chapman· russia· espionage· banking· celebrity

1:45:33 That's what this show is about. Yeah, we're at the verge of a world economic collapse, it seems to me. And by the way, just not to change the topic backwards, but I was looking at these photos you sent me, I can see why you sent them to me. Holy crap! I told you this thing is outrageous. This is not like a little lab. This is like a waste of the taxpayers' money on so many levels, I can't imagine. Thank you. Thank you. $3.5 billion for a big ball in the earth. That is people have to look at these photos. Yeah, I'm gonna post them into the chat room This is this is why I brought it up the national ignition. I don't even like the name Okay, national ignition facility is like this is the igniter of what it's bad. This is bad I don't know it's bad, but I do know it's not gonna work. Do you remember Anna Chapman? No, yes, you do. Yeah. Yeah, you do. Yeah, she was the redheaded spy. Oh

1:46:27 Yeah, yeah the hot spy. Yeah the hot spy guess what now she's gonna take over an oil company Well, she's working at the bank now in Moscow. Oh, thanks. She's taking over a bank. Yeah, how does that work? Because when I saw her the first time I said hey, there's a why are we getting rid of her? She's a good banker. She's hot. Don't let her slip through our fingers. Will we let her go and she's now in Russia. She's back in Russia and she's working at the bank. In uh... I think they're giving her the bank. They're gonna make her the CEO of the bank. No, you're kidding me. Yeah! No. Look into it. I've got... she's working for the uh... fund service bank but I don't know if she's taken over the... well maybe she is. That's... I don't understand. That was... so truly that was just to promote the movie's assault. That whole thing. If she's... I mean if she was a spy how come she's... how come she's gone? How come we let her go?

Nidal Malik Hasan, Fort Hood Shooting Trial Delays

The trial of Fort Hood shooter Nidal Malik Hasan faces ongoing delays, with the defense requesting a postponement until after the November elections. Discrepancies in the official narrative are highlighted, including the lack of media coverage regarding Hasan's alleged possession of HIV/AIDS medication at the time of his arrest.

nidal malik hasan· fort hood· court martial· aids· terrorism

1:47:22 Because she wasn't doing any spying. None of them were. They were just hanging out. It was like a drinking club. Then, uh... I guess that... Did they, uh... once again suspend the Fort Hood shooter trial? Oh yeah. They can't find the guy, that's why. Well, apparently... Where did they put him? Apparently, they had him in court. The actor died. No, I think... I think they had him in court. Yeah, they wheeled him in. I guess he's paralyzed. But they had to have a blanket over his head?

1:47:57 well this is what this is what i didn't hear that yeah it's in this report most news in the morning cnn's the most news in the morning american morning weekday 6 a.m eastern uh just now driving onto the fort hood base a lot of extra security uh... you know we've spoken to about a dozen people since we got down here a couple days ago and a lot of them have just been telling us they they're really looking forward to this being over one of the MPs on base told us uh... you know hey nobody likes it when Hassan comes on base he said we do our job of course we protect him but really we want this man to go away uh... we also spoke with the fiance of one of the most seriously wounded soldiers

1:48:40 This was a young soldier who had just got back a couple days ago from fighting in Iraq. He was only a few days away from leaving for officer candidate school. That's why he was in that building when Hassan was shooting that day. She told us, based on everything that she's gone through and the other families, a lot of them want to be here to face him in court. We all cope in different ways and I know in my situation I just like to know all the facts. How many people perished at this thing? 12, 13, 14? 13 I think he killed. And so far this is the first family member I have seen ever saying something on tape. I agree, I found the whole thing somewhat baffling, the fact that the family

1:49:27 All you know is 13 people killed and a bunch of injured and nobody came up to say you know that the news people couldn't find one family member anywhere they could say hey this guy's a jerk or something no nothing no there's no not in the army no and this is the only but she's very eloquent speaker and I feel of course I feel horrible for what happened but when you listen to some of the accounts of this and one guy doing all this on a military base Wow. It's pretty... I think the blanket over the head thing is in this new story. Hold on. As I can get them and, you know, for me I'm anxious for the article 32 to begin so the public can start seeing some of the facts of what really happened that day and, you know, what led up to that day. Yeah, I'd like to know the facts. That would be really great. They're going to delay this though. You're going to hear more stories about just how selfless those 13 people were and how many heroes are among the wounded.

1:50:22 He had been being held in a county jail nearby. He spends most of the day either sitting in a chair or in bed. He's got a TV and a Quran in his cell. I love that. He's got the Quran in his cell because he's a terrorist. He's a terrorist, damn it. John Kerr. Chris, how much of the case is going to be presented today? What's the exact procedure to determine whether or not he can face a court martial? Is it isn't a court-martial he keeps saying courts-martial courts-martial courts-martial is it courts-martial? We're gonna hear that the prosecutor is gonna lay out for what they're going to talk about how he allegedly went out and bought these weapons how he

1:51:04 how he went to a local gun range to practice his aim and how he carefully planned this attack. What they probably won't get into is the why, his motivations, his alleged links to terrorist organizations overseas. They probably will not get into that until the actual court-martial. So based on what we talked to with some of the families, they want to hear not only how he planned this, but sort of what his motivations were. It's in the other report. This is worth it because this is... This guy sounds like the biggest patsy in the world. There's something fishy about this whole story. And by the way, courts martial is used for a plural. So I guess it is proper. Yeah. Okay. So they're essentially going to delay this courts martial

1:51:52 Until after the November elections when of course no one will care because we'll all be talking about elections Which is I believe why they would do this Back now bottom of the hour in our top story another delay in the hearing for the man accused of killing 13 people and weren't Wounding 32 others at Fort Hood last year now the defense has until midnight tonight to prove that the hearing should be delayed once again this time to November 8th Major Nidal Malik Hassan was scheduled to appear in a Fort Hood courtroom today for the first witness testimony in his Article 32 hearing. It would have been the first time he faced some of the people he's accused of wounding last November. When the hearing finally started nearly three hours late, the defense made two requests. First, they asked again to close the portion of the hearing to the media and the public. Because you may be right, John. They may not even have this guy. This is very interesting.

1:52:44 The request was denied. Second, they wanted to delay the hearing. Hassan's attorney says he has evidence that would justify putting it off until November 8th. After that request, the investigating officer decided to recess the trial until tomorrow morning. He said he wants to give the defense until midnight tonight to put together paperwork that would prove that delaying the hearing to November is a reasonable decision. It's not in this report, but 20 minutes into the hearing, a blanket was draped over his head. He was paralyzed from the upper chest down, he was wounded four times by police who rushed the scene of the shooting. Defense attorney says he has trouble regulating his body temperature because of his injuries. He usually wears a watch cap and long underwear. So the elections are November 2nd. Yeah, we won't give a crap. And this will be after the elections, which is... We're not gonna give a crap. We're not gonna care. Something screwy.

1:53:42 Yeah, when you put it all together, there's the lack of anyone saying anything. Remember they went through his apartment and they found HIV drugs? Remember we had that? No one's ever brought that up. Right, he had AIDS or something apparently. Right, no one has ever brought that up, ever. But they did, we had a clip where the guy was in the room and he was going through his stuff and he was saying exactly what he had. And he was reading it out, we had, this was on 60 Minutes or something, one of these news shows. And AIDS drugs, and no one ever followed up on that. That he either has AIDS, yeah he has AIDS, these are AIDS drugs, they're not used for anything else.

1:54:26 So the whole thing is a sketchy, fishy story from the beginning. Yeah, we need some help on that. We're not going to get it. Nobody knows. The information's on lockdown. It's just... There may be a mole on this base that could send us a note somehow saying this is all bullcrap. No, a friend of mine was killed. That would at least be something. We'd love to have something. Yeah, we'd love to have something. But at least it would be more than the sketchy information we have about this thing. It's not going to happen. We're not going to get anywhere. So, yeah. There really are a lot of people out there who listen to the show and who do contribute. And that's really what, that's why we call our listeners producers, by the way, is because they actually are contributing. Los Angeles Times, I think Michael Krikorian, no, Krikorian, is probably a listener.

CHAPTER 33 / 40 Discussion

Overuse of the Word Amazing, Los Angeles Times Op-Ed

An op-ed in the Los Angeles Times echoes a long-standing pet peeve regarding the linguistic dilution of the word "amazing." The author argues that the word has lost its true significance due to constant overuse in casual conversation and marketing.

amazing· linguistics· los angeles times· michael krikorian· pet peeve

1:55:19 What did you steal? Amazing. Amazing no more is the title of his op-ed. Give the word a rest so it can regain its true significance. John, this guy wrote down your entire pet peeve and he probably got paid like 450 bucks for it. The entire thing about the word amazing. For too long now I've been painfully aware of the failing meaning, diluted power and loss of essence of quote amazing. I just got tangled up with the mic, sorry.

1:55:57 You there? Yeah. Oh. So I found that to be amazing. There's a lot of amazing stuff out there. I don't have any more clips either. What did I have? There were a couple of things that happened this week that I thought were weird besides the elections. Apparently the debate between Jerry Brown and Meg Whitman was entertaining. I missed it. I really wanted to catch it. It's on C-SPAN. They did it on C-SPAN. You can go online and look at it. So who's going to... Do you really think Jerry Brown is going to win this? Is that... I said from the get-go that Jerry Brown would win it. and the reason I say that, and I'll say it again, is because people are familiar with his name. That's the depth of intelligence of the California electorate. I think that's the same with all voters everywhere. It's all about marketing and PR. Let's see what we got here. We got a Jerry Brown. I've heard of him. He's famous. Yeah, let's see. If it said Jerry Brown, aged 80,

Afghan Opium Production, Australian Military Presence

Mainstream reports confirm that fields surrounding Australian military bases in Afghanistan are being used for large-scale opium production. The discussion suggests that Allied forces are intentionally failing to crack down on the trade, which remains the region's primary cash crop.

1:56:54 Ex-governors, you know, crackpot, moonbeam, loser mayor of Oakland. Wait a minute, he's a crackpot? He's a crackpot? Now I know who to vote for. This is good. He's a total crackpot. Oh, I like that. From Gitmo Nation down under, more than half the fields surrounding the main Australian base in Afghanistan, John, are being used to grow opium poppies. Locals question why, this is just mainstream news, locals question why troops and police have failed to crack down on the semi-open sale of the poppies. So it's not just growing, they're selling them. What, they had like a stand? Like a fruit stand? It's a very pretty flower. According to the report of a respected non-governmental organization. Well, the Allied forces in Uruguay, that's where the Dutch were as well.

1:57:41 have had some success in convincing locals to grow wheat, fruit and saffron, opium poppies are still the province's biggest cash crop. They're not even hiding it. And they keep saying the same thing over and over and over again. As long as opium keeps fetching high prices, it'll be difficult to stamp out. What do you mean? It's like Agent Orange that shit. If you're serious about it, which you're not, Yeah, or just torch it. You get those flamethrowers. Yeah. But it's just... Right, we can just give... You know, we'll be pointing this out until the war is long over. And it's still, you know, there's about ten... maybe... I don't know how many people you think... I mean, do any of these other people that do these shows, you know, these analysis shows like we do, where you break these things down a little bit, even bring up the fact that this is such an obvious thing going on?

1:58:37 And examples of it are like some years ago when those two San Jose Mercury news people actually were on to this scam. Yeah, and they got killed. Well, they didn't get killed, they got fired. By the editors. One of them got killed, I think. NCIS was talking about this, not that I watched the show, but someone sent me a clip about some guy who stole the money from the CIA to buy drugs. And here it is. The money was going to drug smugglers and opium growers. You think it actually matters whose side we're on? It'll end- There you go. Doesn't matter whose side we're on. Okay, now she- I saw this one. That woman who's- she basically- she's a CIA agent.

Dr. Call, UK Vaccine Outsourcing

A private company called Dr. Call is reportedly handling large-scale flu vaccination programs in the United Kingdom, using incentives like shopping vouchers and lottery tickets to encourage participation. The company is described as the "Blackwater of vaccines" due to its outsourced role in public health.

dr. call· vaccines· united kingdom· national health service· outsourcing

1:59:23 Stealing money from the CIA because she knows that it's all going to drug smugglers and opium growers. Might as well steal it, who cares what side you're on. She thinks it's ridiculous so she decides to steal it. Go ahead, just steal it. Another company we need to invest in John with all 10 of our dollars. Doctor Call. Look into this company. Maybe you should talk to Horowitz about it. One of our producers, Matthew. And this is in the United Kingdom, drcall.co.uk. He calls this the black water of vaccines. These are the guys that are outsourced the large-scale flu vaccination program outside of the National Health Service. And they're like packaging it up with Marks and Spencers, shopping vouchers, lottery tickets, anything to get you to take the flu vaccine.

2:00:18 Hmm and dr. Call dot co.uk are the guys now dispensing this and get my nation east I don't think it's a public company, but I think you're right if it is it's probably a good investment die well Oh wait, I got a 404 there that's interesting. No, that's on the I got that too, but the regular sites fine Yeah, I'm not seeing any Here Tesco Tesco now working with dr. Call. They're doing anything to give you a shot anything Dr. Call is an innovative medical services group providing high quality medical services for both individuals and companies. So when the doctor comes a-calling you better be sick that day, you better not be at work. Wow. Once you get used to giving people shots then you can give them anything you want. Alright, I think that's just about it other than a little bit of Stuxnet news. I keep getting very detailed analyses from

CHAPTER 36 / 40 Discussion

Stuxnet Worm, SCADA System Vulnerabilities

Technical analysis of the Stuxnet worm suggests it was specifically designed to target Siemens SCADA systems used in critical infrastructure like power grids and water treatment plants. The worm's complexity indicates a state-sponsored origin, though many of its "memes" are viewed as distractions from its actual destructive capabilities.

stuxnet· scada· siemens· cyber warfare· industrial control

2:01:26 engineers and sysadmins and I think the consensus is pretty much now this was a total don't look over here moment with all the memes in there the dead foot and the dates and you know for martyrs and all that crap but this worm according to an anonymous sysadmin is about these SCADA systems SCADA oh there's the black helicopter coming to get me listen to that I can hear it yeah no it's it's a it's a Chinook or Chinook What are they doing over there? Just saying hi. So the SCADA systems, which is what this bug, this worm apparently is all about, controls everything from how much fluoride is in your water, the power grid, the pumping station used by the gas companies, their oil rigs, the list goes on and on. This worm has remained undetected

2:02:22 Penetration is now believed is much greater than has been reported. Siemens systems were not picked on by chance. They have had a default ID and password that's hard-coded into the system. This information about this default password has been floating around the net for years, and there's a significant number of these control systems that still have Windows NT4 boxes in the mix, so they're never going to be patched. But this is either an attack on Siemens or somehow this June 24th 2012 there's going to be some control taken and we'll have to see what it means. But I think it's something that can't just be dismissed as another little worm. It certainly has nothing to do with all those memes that are in there. That I think is all distraction. And quite frankly I would expect more of this on This Week in Tech. So I wanted to just make one little comment.

CHAPTER 38 / 40 Discussion

Rick Sanchez Firing, Social Media Persona

Former CNN anchor Rick Sanchez is criticized for abandoning his social media presence immediately after being fired for controversial remarks. The hosts argue that his "social media man" persona was a corporate fabrication rather than a genuine commitment to engaging with his audience.

rick sanchez· cnn· twitter· social media· journalism

2:05:00 I think anyone who looks at me like that with their butthole in on their head looks hot. Speaking of buttholes, Rick Sanchez was pointed out to us by one of our producers who was the he was one of us the guy this is the guy from CNN who got fired for saying disparaging making disparaging remarks about his employer which but he's now backtracked on that he says he was tired Yeah, he was tired.

2:08:22 Alright John, I'm stretching at this point. Are you done? Yeah, I'm through. I'm done. I'm finished. I think we've gone two hours and we'll have some special material for the next show. So let us do the primer show. Do you want to do that? I mean seriously, do we want to do this like before Sunday or right after Sunday? I don't know. I think we still have to write down some of the themes. We still could use a few more people pitching in with their no agenda so I can make billions of dollars or whatever and some suggestions on what we should talk about.

2:09:04 Gitmo Nation wool warriors or Gitmo Nation sheep shaggers is being suggested. Although Kiwi may be more appropriate. I think Kiwi's better. Okay. So we will be back on Sunday, and we'll have once again prepared to assassinate the media for you. Coming to you from the Crackpot Command Center here at the Hilltop Watchtower, where the Chinooks are buzzing overhead. I'm Adam Curry. And from Northern Silicon Valley where it seems like it might be another unbearably hot day, I'm John C. Dvorak. We'll talk to you again on Sunday for early morning service right here on No Agenda.
