Highway to Hubris

00:00 Yeah, yeah that's what we do. I mean we manipulate the media because the media is a bunch of idiots anyway. Adam Curry John C Devorah It's Sunday April 17th 2011 time for your Get My Nation Media Assassination episode 296 This is no agenda Happy and distracted here, high atop the hilltop watchtower. Crackpot Command Center in Gimel Nation West in the People's Republic of Southern California In The Morning I'm Adam Curry And from Northern Silicon Valley where the fog has actually rolled in it's foggy again here in Northern Silicon Valley I am John C. Dvorak It is crackpot and buzzkill! Well in the morning to you John

00:40 In the morning to you. And in the morning to all ships at sea and boots on the ground and feets in the air. And all of our human resources in the chatroom, at noagendachat.net, noagendastream.com I think we're at seven or eight hundred right now they're all charged up and ready to go exactly the way their government loves them and needs them to complete their valuation of 9.1 million dollars in a lifetime A short couple days there between shows and tons and tons and tons of interesting stuff Really? I found nothing. Well, right off the bat I found it very interesting how the Ministry of Truth came out with the secretly recorded audio of Obama Yes which i have a copy of Now do you have the full copy where he's talking about the White House phone system being lame

01:30 No. Because this is now reported as... Do you have that copy? No, no of course not because it's fake the whole thing is fake. Oh duh! Duh winning Yeah but everywhere its like well he didn't realize the microphone was on. Now I realize it sounds like he was reading from a prompt Is the mic on? Hold on a second It was so funny. Why doesn't the guy have the balls? If he wants to call these guys out as douchebags, why doesn't he have the balls to do it? Well, he's campaigning now this is part of that you know some genius went I got a great idea when we gotta make him sound tough and use words like we're not stupid We're not stupid

02:11 Yeah, we'll make them sound tough. That's it that's it yeah You know what gonna do get that compromise guy from CBS which one well choose one they're all compromised Yeah, yeah Here's the menu Meanwhile this is absolutely like I want the whole recording then you know where's the whole recording no It's just bits and pieces the funny ones cats around somewhere No No, it's not. I hate to tell you but it's not. Are you telling me that they released this and then they edited after? That is exactly what I'm telling you CBS News and that would be the premier place to look because there was a CBS reporter. It wasn't ABC, was it CBS? No, no, it was CBS. They're all compromised Yeah what... There was a CBS guy and then... Okay, so it was CBS The only thing yeah they have like two bits of it and then there are couple other

03:00 mentions... So people know what we're talking about. Let's play, let's play this I have the clipped up version. Duh! Like i don't have a clip of it? Well I didn't think you'd just probably would've figured out that I would've had a clip of it Oh no, No. I never take that risk Here are President Obama said at his fundraiser Now he didn't mean for public dissemination but he got caught by a hot mic He didn't mean for public dissemination. No, no this was meant to be secret And it was taped now here is what he said You want to repeal healthcare? Go at it. We'll have that debate! But you're not going to be able to do that by nickel and diming me in the budget, uh-uh. Do you think we're stupid when Paul Ryan says his priority is to make sure that we're... He's just being America's accountant and trying to be responsible

03:53 This is the same guy who voted for two wars that were unpaid for, voted for the Bush tax cuts that weren't paid for. Voted for uh...the prescription drug bill that cost as much as my health care bill but wasn't paid for! That's all you got? I got more than that Oh you beat me?! Yeah that's all you got? That's all you got? Oh no! There he is there he is So finally after four years you have a slide whistle congratulations child I'm so happy for you. I'm a little slow in the draw No, the one that I really wanted maybe was this in Chicago where this took place Was that where this recording is from? I'd already died somewhere Okay because because then this is report it took place at the White House studio. I'm sorry What am I thinking as right in the White House green screen room and

04:42 Donors in his hometown of Chicago, he said and this I wish this is their audio. I want he says we can't get our phones to work Come on guys. I'm the president of the United States Where's the fancy buttons and stuff in the big where the big screens come up? It doesn't happen I always thought I was going to have like really cool phones and stuff Wow, that's a good one. That's why I wanted the audio. That's an embarrassing clip so they wouldn't play that. No of course not this is why you know it's not true he goes even further answering questions about bottlenecks in technological innovation the president says well technology purchasing throughout the US government is horrible! It's true in the Pentagon and its true in the agencies it's true in the Department of Homeland Security

05:26 He did however say that federal government workers were on the whole smart and dedicated. It's like really? You know, what?! So anyway so here is the other clip of audio I got that I liked because I saw this guy being interviewed by Wolf Blitzer. I'm sorry it's a... Wolf Blitzer exclusive interview with the Emir of Qatar or you say Cutter Everyone says cutter and whenever you say cutter like I always have to think of a when as a kid We had a neighbor whose dog was named cutter because he's always cutting the cheese doesn't sound right cut. Oh, don't it wouldn't be Qatar? Sounds better than cutter they saying pronounced either way But if you listen to a cutter ease speak it they say in some really kind of a guttural way that's different than both Okay, so we should like your square we should say oh

06:18 So here's Obama talking about, and this should help you with the Ministry of Truth Dissemination, dissection. Talking about his meeting with the Emir of Qatar Of course he had the... This is before Wolf got to talk to him. It was interesting I had the Emir of Qatar come by the Oval Office today They, you know he owns Al Jazeera basically. I like that he says that He's a- he owns basically no he owns al jazeera can we just like all understand this for a moment Yeah well We also have to understand that he is also owned by MI6 duh pretty influential guy winning and uh I love the slaves in the audience yeah, yeah pretty influential guy yeah go al jazeera!

07:11 a big booster, big promoter of democracy all throughout the Middle East. Reform reform reform you're seeing it on Al Jazeera now he himself is not reform... Now you erred over it but he said something very interesting listen again and uh... He is a big booster, big promoter of democracy all throughout the middle east reform reform reform You're seeing it on Al Jazeera So he's literally saying that the message is pumped through Al Jazeera. Now, he himself is not reforming significantly. Let me rattle my diamonds! There's no big move towards democracy in Qatar This is such a... Hey, hey Amir of Qatar Look out bitch I got my eye on you That's exactly what this is You know part of the reason

08:10 Is that the per capita income of Qatar is a hundred and forty five thousand dollars a year? Yeah, so this was the story is like so the so now here's how he's gonna spin this and this will become something Does he say that capital income yes no the price that suppose Let's see You know part of the reason is that The per capita income of Canada. He's a the perk at it, but now listen to how he kind of like muffles away what that means our is $145,000 a year That will dampen a lot of conflict If everyone is as rich as we were 145 thousand

09:03 Now keep in mind they have like 1.7 million people and 75% of them aren't even Qatari, they're from all over the world. Filipinos and Pakistanis but their average income is $145k a year now granted if you look at the curve... Oh right! Duh Yeah, there's 1.7 million people of which 100 thousand are multi-billionaires and the rest are slaves yeah then your average is 145 thousand they try to like get out of it sure that not every laborer there but but but but oh crap I'm gonna mess that up Oh crap idiot But he so funny man He provides so much entertainment

10:04 It's going to get worse because he is on the road and campaigning now which means he will be in a lot of these casual conversations where he is overconfident. Leaked audio, oh his hubris is outrageous! You know, I'm reminded of the hubris. Did you hear what AMC is up to with their new reality show? Yeah! The Department of Homeland Security reality show. Talk about hubris... How dumb do you have to be- I love it! And you know what the shows gonna be called? Doesn't that sound perfect?! Jeff Smith, Sir Jeff Smith we can sell this to Lucy Napolitano She will love it

10:44 And now ladies and gentlemen it's time for... With Lucy Napolitano starring as Lucy. With the pat down of the six-year old. And the eight year old is a new one now Oh is there? Great So our president does his weekly address to everybody And once again he pulls out the H word and it's starting to really bother me. Now one plan put forward by some Republicans in the House of Representatives aims to reduce our deficit by four trillion dollars over the next ten years but while I think their goal is worthy, I believe their vision is wrong for America It's a vision that says at a time when other nations are hustling to out-compete us for jobs... They're hustling John! Those damn them they're hustling again we're not hustling hard enough

11:33 Who's hustling? What does that mean? Doesn't mean anything. He likes the word Yeah, he sure does and he finally admitted that he is an elitist bastard Oh wow I'm surprised it took him this long Huh? Surprised it took him this long Have a listen We'll reduce spending in our tax code with tax reform thats fair and simple so that the amount of taxes you pay doesn't depend on how clever an accountant you can afford And we should end the tax cuts for wealthiest Americans to Because people like me don't need another tax cut. Okay? I look at that and am like, okay wow. You know who the other guy is who keeps saying that about himself we don't-I don't need another tax cut. Uh no whose that? Buffett! Oh pfff Buffet he's senile just running on a chip

12:29 Yeah, and the guy can't actually be doing anything. I don't trust him. I don't like him on a trusting Sorry mention his name sitting there in Omaha Peter Peter bear yeah he is now He's in Seattle and San Francisco most of it is the whole thing the whole outfit is the whole operation isn't Omaha? Yeah, he's like you said yes always in Omaha. It was like at the donut shows up for that one meeting never thought it was at the doughnut shop hanging out and Pito Bear Central there So, very annoying once again on the last program. We caught White House spokesman Jay Carney tripping over his words substituting Syria for Libya and of course the White House press corps that stellar group of Woodward and Bernstein's

13:21 Yeah, haha. He made a funny ha ha he was you met Libya not Syria now He meant Syria and not on none as though sooner have we ended the show As what shows up? You actually sent me a link to it. It's like, well yeah I was like as soon as the show was over i was annoyed by the fact we didn't pick it up during this show Yeah right So if you want to know what The Path To Persia is and what-what is happening next there's only two guys you have to listen to Only Two because they are the front runners They are the war mongers And its McCain George McCain

14:00 And this guy, Lieberman. Lieberman does it again and he's great at telegraphing I mean can we just put a camera on Lieberman all the time? We should have a reality show around Lieberman rather than Lucy Napolitano It's Larry Lieberman everybody so he gets asked about Syria and uh... i don't know if he was prepared or not but I have to presume that he was but basically pulled out the uh... He pulls out the Libya script What should we do about Syria Well, let me say first that it's very important for everybody to understand that what we're doing with the world community in Libya is what the Arab World wants us to do. What the Arab street wants us to do. Isn't that great? So all of a sudden now we do what the Arabs want us to do? Okay! Alright... So finally we are on this side of the mass of people yearning to be free within the Arab world

14:57 because it's getting better. Secondly, I think the world has made a very clear statement in Libya which is being heard by both the Arab people and the Arab dictators elsewhere in the region and I'd say with regard to Syria that Assad... Now he has a good name right? We've gotta get used to the name Assad Assad. You have to know the background here you had the first Assad which was the guy who ran the place until he dropped dead and his son took over, the second Assad but the first Assad was a real nasty person that nobody was gonna mess with him if even said anything about him or even wrote an op-ed in like a national newspaper would get you would get a death threat right

15:43 And he's the guy who is notorious for, there was some town that had a little skirmish, got protested. A couple guys holding signs I can't remember the name of it but it's easy to look up. It's in Wikipedia. A town of 40 thousand people Because of this one protest he killed everybody in the town and then took bulldozers and bulldozed the town. There's no town there Now is this the guy currently or just a nice guy? Oh Very nobody was saying nothing when he was in jail because you don't want to like get bulldozed So the kid took over and you know he just probably is not a possibly be that horrible person his dad was Stalin And so they're gonna push him over because there's a running meme, so it's the Assad meme so everyone like oh Assad Yeah, oh. He's bad I've heard about him. He's bad, but this is like the third Assad in the line

16:36 It actually might be the third, but I know for a fact it's the second. The one before him, the dad was the kick-ass guy. This guy was just nasty and he was also responsible as believed for most terror operations all of them including the bomber... Squirrel! ...the Lockerbie thing Oh, he was involved in that too? He was involved in everything. And his whole way as I was explained to me once by an Arab as a matter of fact... The Hama massacre is what it was. Hama Yeah that's it and ummm....he was involved in just about everything because they're there's one the few countries doesn't have real big supply oil if any. Ahhhh! They have something now hahahah I know what they have. They've got something now? No they've got something its not oil let's listen to Larry Lieberman show again

17:24 By the way, if you're new to the show yes we know his name is Joe but for purposes of his reality program management has decided Larry sounds better. Dictator there ought to and probably is getting a very clear message If he turns his weapons on his people and begins to slaughter them as Gaddafi did No, no we stopped... What is this the same script? Yes! We stopped Gaddafi from slaughtering dude. What are you talking about you can't have it both ways. Oh he said as Gaddafi did Yeah he said as Gaddafi did, as Gaddafi did If he turns his weapons on his people and begins to slaughter them as Gaddafi did

18:06 he's gonna run the risk of having the world community come in and impose a no-fly zone and protect civilian population just as we're doing. Can't they come up with a new playbook? No, because it works so well! And all the slaves go... Okay, okay In Libya and therefore Assad has one choice and that is to negotiate with the Freedom fighters in Syria. Oh they've got freedom fighters there too all of a sudden the freedom fighters Yeah It's not protest anyway by the way anyway it's nice not for its freedom fighters

18:41 John, freedom fighters. Hey! How can you oppose a freedom fighter? You can't. To create an entirely different government therefore he too will have to go. Let me just interrupt very briefly Senator Lieberman we're running out of time but are you suggesting that you would support some kind of international coalition to go in and do in Syria what were doing now in Libya What kind of question is that you idiot?! Duhhhhhh If Assad does what Qaddafi was doing, which is to threaten to go house-to-house and kill anybody who's not on his side... House to house! Was Qaddafi doing that John? House to house. House to house

19:24 and i'll ask the side does what could happen it was doing which is to threaten house-to-house until anybody who's not on his side there's a precedent now that the world community has said in libya and it's still right one we're not gonna stand by and allow this aside to slaughter his people like his father did uh... years ago and in doing so we're being consistent with our american values and also on the side of the arab people let me know what's what i think it is a little arabs go arabs are still confused nine eleven is now bad arab now like good arab i don't know what to do anymore so you ask the question john wise clip

20:08 Yeah, that's the end of the clip. I know so you asked a question do it? Well i got a better one for ya. Yeah, im shooting my wad early in the show So now we know why Libya was important and its too simple to say oh its about oil It was simple but true. Yeah, that's a little too simple because it was about the Chinese and well Chinese and oil Well yeah But you you know you laid it out quite clearly And we know that there's a lot of people from companies were evacuated out of Libya but by far the most were the 30,000 Chinese oil workers who were evacuated so the end I give you full credit for this You said look hear me now believe me later listen

20:56 The Chinese, Libya was doing a deal with the Chinese and then Britain and France and the United States went excuse me we'll have none of that. And whatever the reasons were we have our suspicions but that was really the impetus for going in and kicking the Chinese out and trying to take it over right? You're with me on that? Yes this is my theory So Syria, now why is... Why Syria? Why Syria? Ah you dug something up. Yes I have! Well let me say it's the Chinese again, I don't know No it's not the Chinese Wait wait lemme guess George Clooney No! It has got something to do with George Clooney If only if only Nah so I have a clip here from Russia Today

21:42 And they still are not taking our advice. In fact, they are doing exactly the opposite instead of putting hot babes in there with doctorates and blonde hair named Natasha with a Russian accent. They have like an American chick I don't know... She's not winning They don't get it. No, they don't get it and until they get it this...they'll never make it. They won't have impact Have you watched Tom Hartman on that thing? Oh God please! Did he have an operation or something? For one thing he's lost a lot of weight And apparently can't read from a prompter because when does his eyes bug out Have you watched him?! Yeah I know and he tries to hide behind the glasses but is not fooling me

22:22 Yeah, his eyes get really big and they bug out when he's trying to read from a prompter. This is what I call a bad habit yeah, so um this woman from Russia today has Paul Craig Roberts on the show very long interview of which I've only clipped two minute piece But it's exactly the piece. I wanted came at the very end We put your Paul Craig Roberts was a senior. I think was an advisor in the Reagan administration You know what? He did No, I don't remember him. Yeah, I mean i'm sure he's part of the elite but I think he is kind of old now and he's kinda on the sidelines so he takes money from Russia today But he calls it! He not only calls Syria, he calls The Reason Why and then how and when we're gonna do it basically Mediterranean One issue that I wanna brought up You've written a little bit about Syria where there are some protests going on now Do you think that United States...Syria is much closer to Libya

23:19 as far as its relation to the United States, then Egypt or other countries where we've seen protests. Bahrain, Yemen... Do you think that Washington would get involved in Syria? I think that's the intention. You see Syria provides the Russian naval base in the Mediterranean. There it is! They have the Russian naval base in the Mediterranean and of course for people who don't know, you know these northern African countries are kind of like... It's like southern Mediterranean So now we're going to have the whole area and we can't have a couple of Russkies floating their boats there. That's a little too close. Now, the Russians aren't going to put up with this one? Well that is the question as our fine interviewer asks How would it ever fly though because Russia has a base in Syria I mean it would never get past the UN Security Council

24:12 Well, they won't necessarily go to the UN Security Council. Who cares? Let's just go kick their ass! We know they got freedom fighters! They've got freedom fighters we have to arm them they would just act. They will say, oh these terrible things are happening we've got to save the Syrian people you know who knows what they'll do? They'll do what they think it can get away with and I don't...I can't predict that but all i can observe is that in the case of Syria and Libya there have..there are these differences if they can overthrow those countries

24:52 Russia out of the Mediterranean and they can get China out of the Mediterranean, and that is probably a goal of The people in Washington. So you have three big players Russia China United States That kind of could all be pitted against each other in these two countries Do you think that this will escalate to a much larger? issue between the three world powers? You see here how horrible she is. She's terrible and she interrupts him at the wrong time, she's a very poor interviewer get rid of her! Well I'd like to but i want to hear Paul Craig Roberts a little more. They should fire her. Poor teacher to act. It's a risk that's...I think the Americans are being too aggressive given the nature of the risk

25:36 for miscalculation. There is a risk. Just really quickly, what do you think it would take for there to be a tipping point? What would the U.S. do that would make that tipping point? Tipping Point! Tipping Point! They push too hard. Well, what's pushing too hard? Shut up. You know, I don't know how China and Russia will view their national interests or what they would think is threatening. I can predict that because I'm not inside their minds. But somewhere along the line there has to be a trip point where you push too far and the Americans are full of hubris arrogance

26:15 and they don't mind using military power to extend their reach. That's right, go in and kick your ass! Take your stuff I'm coming into your sandbox next Okay well here is my prediction This is good So here is what I am thinking Now I know that the road to to Iran is through Syria and it was listed as one of the places that's going to be a problem. It's called the path to Persia yeah, that's it but I say The Road To Iran? That's a Bob Hope movie! Is there really a Bob Hope movie The Road To Iran no so anyway now so um... There is something we want from Russia

27:02 Yeah, better hosts on TV. That's all I want from Russia! There is something going on there is a quid pro quo in the background and it was like many years later took us for... It took us you know that Kennedy the great Kennedy showdown in Cuba right? It took I think 20 years or 30 years before it was revealed that you know Kennedy show down as you know almost brought us into World War III was a quid pro quo that was not it's not discussed which was they took They took their missiles out, the Russians took their missiles out of Cuba but we took out a bunch of missiles that we had in Poland. Turkey I think was... Turkey? I think this was Poland. I think it was Turkey as well Well there were some missiles that we removed Whatever! Some hardware And uh.. That was the deal and i think theres something going on here We have to just kind of do more deconstructing and figure what is because there's no way The Russian are gonna put up with this

28:03 The Chinese were interlopers and they know it. They kind of snuck into Libya, they started doing deals and the next thing you know we rousted them. The Russians aren't interlopers they've been in the area forever so... Well are the Russians and the Chinese are doing business together now in oil? Yeah but their good business partners. They don't trust each other there not really good business partners. Well then what could be that we want from Russia I don't know more hot spies and better TV hosts. I don't know we will tell you what I get We'll figure it out in the next week or so It'll be obvious because we're now that we are no, you know, we're sniffing around Yeah, there'd be some little news article that'll crop up. Ah That's it? Okay. All right So this is what we do on this little program of ours This is why I get up at 530 in the morning on show days and I love it

28:58 and uh... you notice we were interrupted by commercial during that and we didn't run out of time john i'm sorry to run a time it can finish this excellent piece of journalism yet take a break right now i can tell you where your eyes on this topic in fact we're gonna move on with another topic right after the break squirrel do we have any other producers help us out for the show here we got a three executive producers members at the three hundred club in a couple associates that one mentioned okay let's begin with um...

It was the first of my three knighthood payments so you've made it $333.33 which means you Adam have to kick in the extra penny That's right I'd also like to request some karma to help get off my rear end and find work. This is just my brain You've got karma Yeah if your gonna go to the knighthood it might be handy Edward bear bill beer toys and almost right again edward beer toys in beer towson beer towson mm-hmm beer towson edward beer towson guys you're still doing a great job thank you please continue do so for the next 300 episodes okay I could use a bit of karma as i'm currently starting my own company oh all right always good to start your own company you've got karma

There is a guy who is harassing me. Good. Some global warming guy.

31:21 So Hans-Jorg Schultz 281.90 He's back! Hans Jorg?

Still trying to figure out how to get the wheels for it I've got some nice offers on the email and like really nice offers, like The one that came closest but i really just can't take him up on it One of our listeners has a 35 foot RV and he's got a video of it everything is beautiful And you know its better that hes an ex-cop Ex marine

I love those guys! And he survived. Good! Yeah! But we really need to just...

And there's also the NOA Agenda radio app, which I'd also like you take a look at showing the PR section of The Show Notes, which also has some interesting features. So that's some PR mentions and of course we thank our

37:04 Executive producers of 300 Club members Joseph Leeper, Edward Beardhausen and Jesse Cruz. And our other two executive producers Hans-Jorg Schulz and Armin Breuer for supporting the show These are real credits people just like Hollywood but unlike those phonies here we'll actually vouch for you if anyone questions your credit for the show Everyone else... The formula! Our formula is this We go out, we hit people in the mouth Order Say it loud and proud

37:40 It'll get old. Oh, yeah It'll get old but it's a beauty for now is a great giant just steel butts like Tin plated or something? I don't know Hey, I think the Congo may be off the map by the way for the pipeline Why? We know we got Ashley Judd in there to be the Celebrité ambassador. Well then why, it sounds like it's online to me No no no Did she quit? Looks like...no looks like Uganda is gonna play a part anyway. Mmm Uganda invites bid for oil pipeline and they've also blocked Facebook Twitter etc I don't think..it could also be that they're just trying it you know like hey man everyone's on this groovy deal

38:35 Like we gotta be a part... Hey, turn off Facebook! I want some of that. You know? And they got no freedom fighters That's what i'm waiting for But the Uganda government is firing on protesters so they understand how to get the attention Everybody is Who isn't?! Yeah It's like hey we want some No Fly Zone over here Fire on some people Just fire on them Literally it's literally unbelievable what's happening in the world I love it I love it because what we do here for you on this show is at least you understand it and then you don't feel so bad. I have a couple of clips curiously about the Uganda debate Oh, its not curious and its no coincidence Well, I would play the Buanakum that's one of the secret taping of the negotiations with Uganda Now who negotiating with who about what? Well you'll hear when you hear it Buanakum Bomba! Keep your nerve everybody

39:36 Tell him on the sea, Chief. Yumbo! This is Tarzan! Stay where you are and don't let them see that you're nervous. Wanna come? Wanna come... That's Tarzan, douchebag. Now we have the breakdowns of the debates Wanted to this is really really really the worst thing you've ever done. I've got the great white ape She said wanna know God what he got buddy tell chief I make juju And that's the pipeline negotiation one-on-one juju

40:38 That was really, really bad John. So I was watching this thing from the movie Tarzan Escapes and I realized that Bill Cosby is going out of his way to find all the original copies and destroy anything that had anything to do with Amos & Andy Why? Oh because it's racist. The roots of American racism are in these Tarzan movies Is that what Bill Cosby is actually spending his time doing Yeah, it's one of the main projects Really? Digging up all the old radio shows. I mean it's you have we have to destroy I mean is he out? Is he insane this man is he insane? I mean if you want to actually have something to point to Then you want to show this as like, this is how bad it was this man insane One of the things he's Louise that's unbelievable guys insane I got some other really fascinating clips

41:39 I have Joy Behar making a claim that she... Dude, you cannot go from two Tarzans to a Joy Behar. That's just not okay! She says she likes Obama huh? Stroke waffle! I'm stunned by this by the way. Stunned I tell ya. Really? That she likes Obama? Yeah, she likes Obama. Obama did it and the left was yelling at him, the right is yelling at him meanwhile he got plenty of things done He's very good president Don't you like him? I think he could be a better president. I don't dislike him and i don't think you should run down the president like in time of war, when we're always at war. Ugh...Roseanne. Oh, glad you picked up on that. Ugh Roseanne! Alright so- Can you imagine Joy Behar and Roseanne Barr in the same- do you mean this is like- Scissoring? I'm surprised that thing didn't blow up. Critical massive So I was watching C-SPAN. It's what we do so you don't have to

42:38 Hey, I was watching C-SPAN too. Well, I was watching C-SPAN and this very interesting program was announced and this is you know what do you think our Treasury is doing right now during this economic financial Armageddon of a crisis with of course the reality show known as will they raise the debt ceiling looming? What do you think our Treasury is doing right now John? Raising the debt ceiling But first, this week on American Artifacts, C-SPAN visits the Treasury Building to learn about a $240 million restoration project and to visit several historic rooms including the Gilded West Dome, The Cash Room, The Office of the Secretary of the Treasury...

43:25 The gilded dome John the cash room the cash room the gilded dome We got 240 million dollars to blow on this It's a quarter of a billion dollars people a quarter of a billion dollars for the cash for the cashroom. Yeah, I'll get the cash. We've got the cash We just need cash. I know a lot of people want us in blankets and water Just send your cash. So I think, I think that Goldman Sachs is going down Johnny boy. Oh bull crap! Yes i do and I have a theory about this. I'm all ears on this one okay so obviously we have had just too many awakened human resources going hey wait a minute something's wrong here something's fishy

44:13 Now how come no one went to jail? Do you see this all and the reason... I know it's a meme of the day. Right, so the reason I pick up on is like okay hold on a second It started at the Academy Awards by the way. It did it started with the guy who made Inside Job right and he yelled that out in there and they were like what are you talking about But then people went home and were like, ah. And then of course the Ministry of Truth cranked up and they start saying hey well hmm okay so now it's everywhere everywhere you look they're talking about oh we know someone got no one went to jail the only guy was a birdie made off and oh So now this report came out this report is the Levin Report

45:00 And the Levin report in that it basically says, haha everyone lied screwed cheated messed around and no one's going to jail. So now we have this propagating throughout the media and a couple of just a couple of side notes just a couple headlines Goldman Sachs chief blank fine could face criminal prosecution for role in financial crisis Clooney producing Wall Street bailout pic. Hello, does that tell you anything? So there's a hit job coming Tell the Department of Justice investigate Goldman Sachs Goldman furious at being left out of Glencore IPO this is where I went oh Okay

45:48 Then we have on... That's the real punishment. Well, that's part of it but someone has to go to jail and I think it's going to be a blank fine And proof is in the pudding as... But this isn't the same as Goldman going down. They're gonna isolate one or two guys and throw them in jail Of course, of course! Into some ritzy jail at night. Of course man, of course! The meme is that Goldman has to go down By the way I think it's probably Citibank who was going yeah how can we help? How can we help because those guys are all competitors Then we have Elliot Spitzer, who was in the movie, in the Inside Job movie show up on Anderson Vanderbilt Cooper's show. So now you know something is supposed to be communicated because Anderson Vanderbilt Cooper is talking about it along with Matt Taibbi, The Rolling Stone reporter who as we know is on The Inside. We will remember the Homer Crystal story

46:48 Yeah, no he has to be. He's on the inside he gets to do good work and for some reason yeah he must have blown somebody somewhere but he and sometimes you gotta have a guy who just is really clean as a whistle And he's a great reporter and he does not get thrown in the hot tub with the cover on. Right, and he is entertaining He is very entertaining They show up together to talk about this Again another 8 minute interview but at the end finally pay dirt One of the articles you wrote Matt I don't want to quote it word for word because it was quite... Oh because they might have to say the F-word and I'm Anderson Vanderbilt Cooper and I don't f

47:25 uh... well descriptive but but it is a good boy with somebody saying that this is one of these guys was sent to prison that would stop the shenanigans for happening again they all naturally all would take what somebody if somebody was held accountable it wouldn't be would have a cooling effect absolutely i talked to one guy who was a former scc uh... investigator and he said basically descend start sending wood blank fine or one of those guys prevented one of those days you can make it may be but have a heart attack. If they were in real maximum security prison for six months this whole thing would be over very quickly, the whole situation would be cleared up but the problem is there's no incentive for these guys to change their behaviors because they never ever get punished not only do they not get punished, they get a bailout and that's the consequence Has there been any change in regulation? I mean is the regulation better now? Is the oversight better? Look Dodd-Frank made some improvements and it was better to have it than not having

48:17 but it doesn't change the simple fact that all you need is common law fraud on the books or there as a theory. Shut up and get me some hookers, Elliot! I don't care about what you're saying. So there it is, uh...I think Blank Fine goes to jail It's viewed as Goldman going down. Goldman gets bought. Goldman will get bought by someone No Yeah! I think it will and then they'll just-you know, they'll just go on its merry way Nothings gonna change but they need the-it's There's an acute awareness amongst the elite that they have to scapegoat somebody They thought Bernie would be good enough But he's too wacky now Right? And he stole from the rich

48:55 So that was his mistake. We need someone to go down, go down hard and they're making this... I think Blank Fine is the guy And why wouldn't they just assimilate? Goldman Sachs is tainted! They would assimilate it into something else There's too many guys out there Why not?! It's because they are the ones who do thi- They're the top dog They're the ones who call the shots on this They're the ones who are gonna give up Blank Fine You're gonna give him up? Okay Well that makes sense But Blank Fine, someone's going to jail. It's gonna be one guy and it's gonna be really- it's gonna be played up really big. And Anderson Cooper will be... They named the name! I mean when Taibbi said the guys name it's uh... Blank Fine

49:36 So Blankfein's got a target on his back, obviously. He obviously did not play ball in some sense... I mean this is all recent. They could have targeted half-a dozen guys but this guy's name keeps cropping up so he has got a target on his back. He is the target It's when he said we're doing God's work that's when the target got painted. He's the guy that said that! So he's the guy who has to go And then Anderson Cooper will get all of the credit for keeping him honest I'm keeping them honest here everybody. Keeping them honest, that's me! That's me Anderson Vanderbilt Cooper keeping him honest. Hey yeah...keeping him honest Anderson Vanderbilt Cooper keeping him honest Alright Yay! I got lots more like that but i want to give some room Nah you might as well take the show over No no no no Okay well I got some more stuff I told ya at the beginning of this show I got nothing More Behar

50:31 No, I only had the one best Behar I could come up with. I got a good one from Ron Paul who's a little long-winded he was giving... He's out on the stump running for president and of course you listen to his speeches as he was up in New Hampshire. You listen to his speeches as the guy makes nothing but sense the public that's... I know, isn't that horrible? It's horrible. And they're all sitting there all these people a lot of college young people old people everybody has got a great range of supporters they're all loving him this guy can't win anything because he says obviously the media the whole system is against him but he has one interesting little he was doing a question and answer thing after one his littles talks and i thought to blame the Fed when he's got this idea

51:14 That did everything still we're still away from a total real collapse and he says we've got to get it This is the only way that feds ever gonna be beaten any old you can play this in a second The only way the Feds are going to be beating it isn't for one thing It's not gonna be beating but when things start to fall apart, it's up to the public to to intellectually blame them for everything until they finally are just shamed into dissolving essentially. It's a kind of long shot but it's interesting to listen to this little clip. Thank you Representative Paul I have a question about the money going to Libya via the Federal Reserve, i was very disturbed when I read that on your Texas Straight Talk last week why will no one at the federal reserve be held accountable for that? Because the Federal Reserve is a government unto itself they're very very powerful

52:06 And, ah but they're also on the defensive. More so than they've ever been before. They've been able to do everything in secret but fortunately for the two lawsuits by ah it was Bloomberg and Fox that they did force some of this information out and because we had a modification of my bill last year were getting some more information in July It does fall on me with some of the responsibility, you know in the committee to bring this to light. And we will do our very best but unfortunately it's going to be very very difficult they are very powerful and if you think about it

52:49 They have more economic, political clout than the whole Congress. They spent $3.3 trillion on those bailouts and the Congress spent 850 billion. And it's all done in secret! Yes, they should be held accountable. And some of the stories coming out here on who's getting – who has gotten these loans? They should be and hopefully they can be but the odds of them really being held accountable I wish that could be more optimistic but the best way to hold them accountable is as this system falls apart that we intellectually blame

53:30 They've had a free ride. They've always said that if the economy's doing well, the Fed has managed the money supply right and interest rates are exactly what they should be and that is why we have a growing economy but then the economy would turn down because of the Federal Reserve, then the Fed would come in and say well what we need to do is print more money and rescue people who are you know in trouble. And they generally got credit for getting us back out of the slump but that's not gonna happen anymore they have to be blamed because they are responsible it will get intellectually the legal responsibility is another matter i uh... i think we should pursue that but i'm not very optimistic at much or half and mean nor am i

54:21 that than the Congress. Yeah, more powerful, more powerful. More powerful. Then he is up against you know how you can't fight City Hall I mean it's impossible but he still beating punching at him well well read his book and the Fed which is a real quick read its real nice that some for The No Agenda Book Club if you've never read that I know we've talked about it before I've sent it to several people and they go like, ah that's the kook from Texas. No thanks okay. People should be listening to this guy as opposed to calling him a kook Yes And so what he is referring to is the 46 emergency loans that the Federal Reserve made to the Arab Banking Corp during this time of enormous crises

55:20 Yeah, not to mention the 200 million bucks we talked about last week in the Matt Taibbi story. The 200 million going into the Morgan Stanley win. See now that's a distraction you know it's like this is such a distraction and now the Libyan freedom fighters are now looking for a two billion dollar loan from the Fed 2 billion because they have a central bank So the embargoes back to us for freedom. What do you mean? Yeah, of course it comes back to us It's for freedom my friend how dare you question freedom You are so un-american you I can't believe that now by the way regarding Libya just wanted to play one thing from March 21st 2011 that is now almost four weeks ago almost one month a word not used in this statement it is US policy that Gaddafi needs to go but let me emphasize that we

56:18 Anticipate this transition to take place in a matter of days and not a matter of weeks, right? Thank you. And so I would expect that You know over the next several days we'll have more information Yeah, Maura and then will be fully briefing the American people and slaves as well as today on that again March 21st 2011 That's uh, so he said it what he said not did today is not weeks But he certainly didn't mention months Well, it hasn't been a whole month. Almost a month almost a month Okay by the next but this time next week It will be over a month and so we can revisit this in a few more weeks And then we can try to determine what his definition of days not weeks is and sorry banner almost four weeks That's excuse me mr.. President how many days old am I jerk? So meanwhile ooh something very embarrassing for the United Nations cropped up little document

57:16 Now I understand, remember in we read the two resolutions 1970 and 1973. In the 1970 resolution it says you know we should have the International Human Rights Council do an investigation And when they report back then will decide how bad the slaughter of civilians is The human rights guy said okay. Yeah, that's a good idea You know we'll have it done in a couple of weeks which in Obama speak means years you will have it done on a couple of a couple of weeks and So they didn't wait for that report because that was like yeah, how long do they wait John eight days? Hey, well no reporting okay Let's go in and bomb them in January of this year of our Lord 2011 the council

58:06 I was just about to vote on a report that affirmed and praised Libya and Colonel Gaddafi for his human rights record. The report states the Gaddafi government protected not only political rights but also economic, educational social social and cultural rights and praise it for the nation's treatment of religious minorities and human rights training received by the security forces It must be a mistake. 2011 report, LinkedIn the show knows no agenda show dot com right from the UN website how inconvenient well somebody screwed up they should have disappeared that report unbelievable lies all right a little interlude John

1:00:47 That's all a bunch of bullcrap, but you know whatever. So there was another presidential action that puzzled me and for some reason I never see this reported although it's like the White House has RSS feeds it shows up twice in my aggregator because I subscribe to the Presidential actions page and then also the White House Press Office if you were reporting on the White House that was your beat John Wouldn't you like look at what they release? I would be probably glued to that. Yeah so they They released a memorandum about section 315 of title 32 of the United States Code And you know, I love it when I read something like that Like oh is your favorite stuff my favorite stuff like attend for them Google Google What is this?

1:01:40 So this was something that dictator Bush put into place by presidential order, allowing...this is really quite crazy. Army and Air Force personnel to be deployed anywhere as National Guardsmen Oh, that's interesting. I like that! No, I don't like it that much because... Because what is says is that because we have all these you know things you can do in this country with our military. Like posse commentatus But you can do certain things with the National Guard you cant' do

1:02:21 You can't do it the military. So you just say hey, it's just a matter of definition you you you marine guy? You're now National Guard right and it's without Disregard for his rank or for his pay scale Now this was already permissible I didn't know this but I think Before George W Obama came out with this memorandum dictator Bush her bush came out with this idea but now George W Obama has changed this section 315 title 32 so that it no longer is by presidential order but at the discretion of the Secretary of Defense. This is concerning

1:03:05 So now... Oh, this is obvious. This is one typical Obama! He doesn't have to take the heat. Well obviously he so he doesn't have to say yeah it's okay go ahead I called our troops down to the streets because there were freedom I mean rebels I mean anarchists so he doesn't want to have to say that so just like a Bob Bill Gates whatever your name is by the way it's gonna be a new guy any day now So who's the new guy that is going to have this awesome power? I think they should move Napolitano to that job. Yeah, that would be a new guy for sure! Sorry, I couldn't resist... Yeah you're terrible But uh.. That disturbed me somewhat. Yeah it's disturbing isn't it and of course where is anybody bitching and moaning about this does anybody even know about it does anybody complained about it but the two of us

1:03:59 Let me check. No, no. You think somebody from the mainstream media or even the less than mainstream media you think Tom Hartman even? Yeah he should be all over it yeah he should but he's too bug-eyed trying to read what they tell him to read now is you know that his overlords at Russia Today are telling him what to do. His overlords I've I don't, you know... He's probably freaking out saying where are all the hot chicks at this news channel? I got the wrong news channel. Yeah! I decided to go to a news channel with a girl. I'm in the wrong news channel. This is bad. There isn't nothing here just a bunch of fuck-up bushcuts. I would even work for like CNN or Fox just for no money Just let me hang out with the chicks Oops Here she comes running and bang right into the back of their head So actually CNBC has some interesting women too

1:04:56 So, okay let's get back to the show. Alright so I think this is the most emailed story and clip of the week John. I don't see it on your list you probably were sure i was going to get a hold of it The shut up slave moment of the week courtesy of CNN If you got upset at airport security you might want to watch how you show it because behavior detection officers deployed at the nation's airports to ferret out security. Which is BDO by the way, just so you know I want to be one of those guys! I think i'm going to quit this job and become a behavior detective officer Well you could get promoted immediately by... You got a big one! You can catch me

1:05:37 And you know, be like a cute... Hey that's Curry I know him when i see him. I've been watching him for four years! Four years I've been watching that guy. Body cavity search. On the lookout for among other things- John if you want to search my cavity all you have to do is ask honey it's not a problem. Anyone who displays arrogance and verbally expresses contempt for the screening process according to information obtained by CNN civil liberties- Obtained by CNN? It's like Hi, this is Lucy. I need a piece on Arbidio's because you know... ...I don't want to give him a raise they need some profile Sure! What do you want us to say?

1:06:17 Just say they're watching everybody. Okay! So, uh... anti-American. Terrorism experts also question whether it's useful. They say terrorists usually try to blend in keep a low profile because they don't want to draw attention to their activities challenging airport security would have precisely the opposite effect

1:06:56 This idea that a terrorist would be very arrogant, express contempt for airport procedures. That doesn't make any sense to me from a common-sense point of view and also from the record of what is known about behaviors of Al Qaeda terrorists But the immigration agent who stopped the so-called 20th 9 11 hijacker from entering the US did use arrogant to describe Mohammed al Qahtani upon establishing eye contact He had civil body language that appeared arrogant. How do they like this guy into the country is my question? He appeared arrogant you only have to appear arrogant, yeah That's right. That's all it takes

1:07:36 But you know I yeah go ahead. I was thinking you when you go through I always go through these things with a blank state with kind of a blank zombie You look like a zombie Yeah, he goes to looking like a zombie and you know you when somebody tells you do something stupid give them the zombie Look and you go and then you do it And then you don't be friendly at the very end by the way I always do this The very end you get all this stuff because you got all these bins And so you got a bunch of bins come through, so you just take your sweet time about putting your jacket on finding your shoes Putting it. You know do everything so you don't otherwise you'll lose something Yeah and just you know so what well you mean at the end after it's all gone through yeah Oh, yeah I'd do that too because then I'm through and I figure okay? You know the thing that I hate the most would really really really annoys me if you put your laptop now I have a power book

1:08:28 And it must have something to do with the power book and the plastic bins. I always get static electric shock when i pick up my laptop Oh really? I've never gotten that ever Well you don't have a Mac, you got like plastic stuff Have a magnesium device. I don't know it's ever have this because it really it's always And it's like not as small was like patch Like one of those really like the spark you're gonna ruin that laptop when you can get static going through those things It's getting I don't know. I think it's the bin the bin has something to do with it The plastic bin. It is your airport, does this happen everywhere? I've never had that happen. It happens so often that now you know how if it was one of those static days where like you're very conscious of it and you like... You want to go open the door and hit it really hard or really fast because you don't want to get that startle more than shock. I now do that every single time with my laptop because I know that I have a 90% chance I'm going to get a static charge from it. Huh! Yeah, I'm just saying

1:09:30 Anyway, this of course is not about... This is not anything other than promotion for the new show! If you see something say something. If You See Something Say Something is brought to you by Lucy Napalopano and the Department Of Homeland Security Enjoy The Show! If you see something say something. Eh maybe it could be It's gonna be great Gonna Be A Great Show So I've been digging here on this machine trying to find a reference This guy wrote this book. I was watching C-SPAN and Book TV on the weekend of course is quite entertaining because all these book authors who seem to do more work than reporters do, so you get a lot of good information but that's...I didn't realize this one.. I don't have the author's name or his books sorry Oh! But he's a progressive just to show you some balance here with my clips You know we take from the right wing, left wing, middle, you know in the libertarians As long as they're douchebag will clip them

1:10:28 and but this guy has an issue how many you do it's just an interesting question somebody asked him about T bill ownership I didn't realize these numbers these percentages that he built John you have to charge rebuild this is what finances the government so this is why China thinks of the Chinese all right Japanese by we buy you have one and somewhere yeah yeah I'm buying tea bills And here, just play the who owns the T-bills because I don't think the public generally knows this. This guy's got a book on...I don't have the title maybe the chat room can dig it up It's about like 13 economic facts you don't know or some title like that although i couldn't find it on Amazon So uh so its obviously titled something else but it stands alone nicely What about the right wing chicken little narrative involving Is that a racial slur?

1:11:25 Yeah, this is when you get a group of progressives in the room. They're the mean... I mean, you don't see this from the right wing or so much but you sure see it from the progressive branch of the Democrat Party there are ultra-liberals they are means spirited they think all the Tea Party people are just racist pigs and what is that? We have people as you can see from our producers from all over Gitmo Nation explain Chicken Little reference that's a good point. Chicken Little is a child's nursery rhyme or story, fable about a little chicken that keeps running around saying that the sky is falling because it you know drop of a hailstone hit him or something and he just worried sick about everything and he becomes a fretting lunatic in short form and that's called The Chicken Little. What about the right-wing Chicken Little narrative involving

1:12:20 who owns our T-bills and China of course being a big investor in this kind of abstraction called treasury bills. And this nervousness that has been enunciated, that if we do something that upsets this country or that country We will completely go to hell in a handbasket because suddenly the death of... How many more of these does she pull out? Chicken Little, Hell in a Handbasket. Has she done By and Large yet?

1:12:56 This woman is horrible. I think this woman is scripted, I think this whole question and answer thing...I cut a bunch of this out by the way Really? Oh my god Because the guy actually says oh I love this audience because they're asking me exact same questions that I like to answer which is duh! Winning So anyway she wraps it up here and he starts to answer It's kind of interesting to me the numbers that he pulls out This will be called in I don't know why it is that this idea that China owns so much of our debt has become so prevalent, but the reality is They're holding 9.6% of our public debt, 9.6%. Yeah I actually knew this Jar, it's a whole bad guy thing American households and institutions own 42%, more than four times the amount It's an odd kind of thing, I think part of it is... Screw the China man!

1:13:56 I don't know why this is so prevalent. It's an ideological thing, it seems to be that everybody I meet whatever their political persuasion also seems to think China holds this huge sword over our head and we need to let I don't know, Walmart go there and do what... we can't make China angry because oh no! But more than four times the amount is held. I like him too, but the oh no thing. Oh no! Yeah yeah, I like him he's like you know with a little work he could do the show You know? He needs to get on a little more. I think he's also bi-curious like me that's kind of good By US individuals and institutions A very big chunk of it is held in the Social Security Trust Fund Now this is one of the more pernicious lies that I think in my book

1:14:53 the Social Security Trust Fund is a huge pile of treasury bills. A huge pile of treasury bills according to the law of the United States of America, the social security administration's finances cannot be used to either influence the surplus or deficit of the US federal government budget." Wait a minute... Let me just hear that again What did he say exactly? According to the law He says that the Social Security Administration has these T-bills, about four trillion dollars worth and it's accumulating interest. I mean some of the interest payments are going to that which is one of the reasons... There's something fishy going on if anything if what he says is accurate but and I believe it to be

1:15:43 He says that this is most of this information we're getting is bogus that oh, you know the social there's no money. They're broke You know it's all been Folded into the budget and that's just a way It is and it's all bullcrap according to him as he plays us out But it's actually interesting when he actually does the math on it And it looks like Social Security is gonna be around forever Which I've heard from other people And so it's like, you know I don't know why we're hearing this kind of a fake scenario about Social Security. They have four trillion dollars. If we can just change the law, privatize social security that'll throw four trillion into our bank account because we get to take that money now We get the steal the money from Social Security which will tell everyone is broke and That'll balance the budget we can spend more money on hookers and blow And meanwhile the public can screw themselves because they don't know how to manage money anyway But let them. John my head just exploded from what you said like

1:16:49 Wow, all right. Let's just listen to this I'm flabbergasted. So you have this huge pile of cash, 2.6 trillion. It's earning so much interest that even after we start drawing it down... You hear so much about this date, oh we're going to start drawing it down! Even after we draw it down, start drawing it down the interest payments are such that they will continue to increase in size until it hits 4.2 trillion dollars with a T and I hear people who are

1:17:35 so brazen as to assault this incredibly secure and popular retirement program by saying these are worthless IOUs which is just stunning because i want you to just think about this those worthless IOUs are 2.6 trillion in T-bills out of 14 trillion in total, so that means that if they're Worthless so are the nine point six percent held by China and so are the 42% held in your 401ks in pension funds Etc etc. They're not worthless IOUs what they are is they're the safest investment on planet Earth That's what Okay, all right let me get this straight So first of all his last name has got to be Geithner or something like that it's obvious The guy is a shill for the Fed

1:18:34 And he's wow this is unbelievable. It's the most secure investment on earth No my gold how little I have left is the securest investment on earth. This guy, he's a douchebag! Hold on... I understand what his point is you can't say it's worthless IOU without saying the debt to China is a worthless IOU or the T-bills that the American public owes. Well guess what? It's all a worthless IOU that's what I'm gonna say. It's all worthless. A bunch of paper, it's a bunch of hooey circling around like a turd in a toilet. It's all worthless that's what I'll say sure

1:19:15 That guy's just not saying it. He said, no it's the most secure on earth Please Well for paper it is Yeah It's only a little thicker than the paper I wipe my behind with yeah well give me a billion dollars worth of this worthless stuff then Really? You're older than I am and you still care that much about money I don't. I really don't yeah okay no so uh i've took a vow to poverty when we started this show and and so far so good yeah and then when we don't get the donate, when our producers don't help us out then you're depressed for a week So why is that? No I wasn't depressed because of that

1:19:59 So let's go back to this guy. The fact of the matter is we're being led down a primrose path of bull crap when it comes to the social security situation Right, well yeah absolutely so what can I say? Nothing! I just thought that people could use the information... I don't know what to say That was good because it was like what really unbelievable Let's uh, we haven't done this in a while John. We've got some important things going on And now back to real news Just when you thought that Lucy Napolitano with her brand new reality show If you see something Say something But that was everything Oh no! Oh No Condoleezza Rice will make her acting debut on 30 Rock Huh and even better she will be Alec Baldwin's love interest

1:20:57 Those guys at NBC. How's she gonna do Alec Baldwin when he is obviously having this baby with his other blonde hottie? Well, I don't know if she is playing herself or acting She must be playing herself and he will get all hot and bothered for her These guys will stop at nothing That's how you promote a show Which I already of course is that ballins a left-wing lunatic and she's like, you know from the right Tina Fey the show star and creator made the announcement yesterday on NPRs Leonard Lopate show. Yeah the hotbed of promotional activity that there really Good job Tina and Paris Hilton then a star in her own new reality series Where she's going to show a different side of Paris

1:21:59 The real Paris Hilton now apparently we're going to see. I loves me some jokes and that's the real news that i have, I do have some vaccine news this is getting it's been in getting really crazy and just want to reiterate for people who are new to the show that vaccines are the health care bonanza everything's running out of patent every medicine even Viagra well especially viagra Lipitor, all the stuff that has been protected for years and after our donation segment I want to come back to the protectionism of patents and copyrights because there's something going on with that as well.

1:22:40 But vaccines are great because they don't have to go through rigorous testing like everything else It's a this is the bonanza all the companies have predicted this to be their future income You're actually giving it to people who aren't sick, which is even better. So someone doesn't need any other you know Any other just a shot right of whatever? It is and The company's can't get sued This is the greatest thing about it. Deals were made between governments who, by the way purchase many of these vaccines that sit idly until they go to waste and pass their due date and then they usually dump them on some African country so they don't completely lose their assets. There's always a extra penny at the end here So now the United States has jumped into a plan A global vaccine sharing deal

1:23:33 This is a it's kind of like a timeshare. So now it's got there so brazen Virus samples will be shared globally in exchange for vaccines produced from them under a landmark deal to improve to improve preparedness for a flu pandemic according to diplomats at the World Health Organization, so if I understand and they have a framework agreement now that The industry has pledged to quote, donate drugs and know-how covering half of the 58 million dollar annual cost of boosting defenses in the poorest nations. So essentially we will continue to give you guys the really big contracts if you give some of that surplus crap to poor people and now it's official it's an official deal well that's fascinating You need to know this stuff GlaxoSmithKline

1:24:38 One of the makers of Pandremix, yeah Pan-Pandemrix I'm sorry keep mispronouncing it. This is the vaccine that has been linked to kids contracting narcolepsy in Finland. Finland really broke this story now it's turning up everywhere Of course you're not reading that mainstream press because well look at the commercials It's the drug companies who are sponsoring all your media so that why its not really showing up And so this is obviously a big problem. You know, my gosh it seems like the swine flu vaccine pandemics has been causing at least lots of kids not everybody but lots of kids 247 cases in 47 countries narcolepsy So what has the government agreed with GlaxoSmithKline?

1:25:30 Probably not to sue GlaxoSmithKline for anything. No, they already can't do that They can't be sued I don't know what they agreed to give more drugs We want everybody falling asleep no they've recommended changes to the product label may cause narcolepsy Is what they're gonna put on a label okay? You know I don't know about you But yeah, I don't know anybody When's the last time you had a vaccine where somebody handed you the bottle said would you like to read the label? Right. No, of course it was the last time you ever read a label of a vaccine bottle no I don't take vaccines well I mean if you did here since anyone get a vaccine have you ever noticed how the process works do you ever look at the button oh Of course not you pick it off the shelf at a drugstore bring it to the doctor and say this is The one I want now. I think this is more just about illegal thing

1:26:18 Like, you know just slap it on the label. Oh okay yeah done could cause narcolepsy They should make you sign a waiver that's what they should do That's probably I think that happens i'm sure you have to sign a waiver when if you get a vaccination these days No oh yeah oh yes I'm sure you do for people just yeah i'm sure you have to sign something that in fine print says dude Have you ever been to the doctor recently? The minute you sign up for a doctor's- Dude! Dude. Dude, the minute you sign up for the doctor, you sign everything away Anyway... Doesn't matter vaccine exception is likely to be more difficult soon Uh new bill

1:27:02 You know, parents have been trying to get out of these mandatory vaccines for their kids and it looks like that's not going to be possible anymore. I think it's time we take a break Okay let's do that then. 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! Air on NO AGENDA a warning donating to no agenda may cause narcolepsy hopefully it doesn't we do have a few people to thank for this week's episode James Murray in Houston Texas $155.55 always a great show would like a birthday call it we got that list and Cole has used No Agenda topics for a couple of school essays and the teachers are not happy really

1:27:52 Yeah. They should be delighted! I would think, but the teachers... Well actually i have a clip. Well, might as well interrupt the thank yous and play this...play the school stories. It's a book uh..uh The old lady Phyllis Schlafly who is actually I find more interesting than ever with a partner of hers wrote a book called The Flipside of Feminism and you can play this school stories thing i think that may be part of the problem That setup was worthless what the hell? I don't care about who the author sleeping with In order for men to be a certain way And now with feminism

1:28:29 We are not promoting that anymore. So now men are not growing up, it's really very simple but it didn't come out in the article. Well I would add to that the domination that women have, feminists have in the educational system and starts in elementary grades which are mostly run by women and largely feminist because of power of teachers union And your typical, not all but your typical elementary school teacher looks upon unruly boys as just unruly girls. They need to be made to behave like girls and they need to sit still and do the work with a pen and pencil that girls can do very easily. Unfortunately, a lot of new schools are being built without playgrounds

1:29:18 and recess is being canceled in a lot of schools. Now this is a direct attack on the boys who've got to go out and run around and beat each other up so they can come in and learn something! And the feminists won't tolerate that because they have this insane idea that boys and girls are the same, and I've already mentioned the whole problem with sports – they're trying to take sports away – So the colleges are now 60-40 female male. Well nobody likes The girls don't like it, but they've done it the feminists have done. It Wow Yeah, just to dig does don't send your kid to school at all. It's like I said like a concentration camp

1:30:06 Just take your meds, slave. That's all I need some meds So Cole it actually that there was a point to that meds thing the kids are running around with this give them Ritalin Yeah Give him some meds you know don't give them recess give them some meds And yeah like this woman's like boys need to go run around and beat each other up. Yeah, that's right It's what we do so cold needs some karma. Yeah He needs a lot of it apparently You've got karma. I feel really bad for Cole Yeah, jeez well But you can keep trying actually what he should do is just write the right Satires in other words take the opposite side of what he knows to be right and Write it up as though that's right and see how far he gets Jeff juniper white wait a minute That's your entire philosophy That's you don't tell the kid to do what you do

1:36:21 So we have Cole Murray turning 15 on the 19th, that would be the day after tax day so it's Tuesday. That is courtesy of James Murray and Heather Aronson celebrates her birthday and of course we never care to know how old our female listeners are As long as they're listening, that's the most important thing. Her birthday was yesterday on the 16th Happy Birthday from all of the producers here at The No Agenda Show! It's your birthday yeah Excellent So um... There was another thing that uh there were a couple things actually that I Remember the New Zealand three strikes you're out law? They got rammed through on these poor Gitmo Nation Kiwi people who You know just getting over this earthquake

1:37:20 Yeah, it was pretty sneaky. Yeah can you remember that far back like the whole show ago? Not really I can only remember what happened yesterday afternoon So another clip shows up from this so-called debate they had and this is Claire Curran And she is a lawmaker there and I'm not quite sure how everything works in Parliament. They're rowdy though, they're kind of like the Brits. They go... Someone's talking. Just some guy. Maybe he just doesn't know where he is. Canadians do the same thing only they get really nasty Well it's all owned by The Queen so that's why You suck! They like to yell Yeah I think its just old guys waking up going... Where am I?

1:38:06 And she came out with some really interesting information that pertains to the United States, that I did not know and what turns out we're not supposed to know. I refer Mr Speaker to the Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement Now have you heard of this John? The Trans Pacific Partnership Agreement No Good A free trade agreement of sorts currently under negotiation between New Zealand and eight other countries, including the US. It's an attack on our sovereignty and what it currently contains in relation to intellectual property issues is truly frightening Leaked texts of the IP chapter reveal that if it was accepted in its present form and if New Zealand signed up, then the legislation would be chicken feed in comparison. And this is the next battleground for intellectual property in New Zealand and we all need to unite around it. Auckland-based IP lawyer Rick Shearer has written about this recently he said

1:39:07 Quote, the return of section 92A guilt on accusation. Repeat infringer termination of internet accounts three strikes The US wants us to effectively scrap the last three years of consultation around the replacement of section 92a and the reasonably balanced but still not perfect approach we are working towards in the copyright infringing file sharing amendment bill Imagine you're an ISP who has had to bear the cost of gearing up for that regime. Now she goes kind of off the rails, she's like ISP? Who gives a crap! So i go look at this Trans-Pacific Partnership deal which indeed is marked confidential and it actually says this may be emailed but it may not be sent to press etc so of course that means its kind of secret

1:40:00 The whole thing, John... Wait hold on a second. You mean it actually says it can't be sent to the press? Yeah you want me to bring that up? But then the press isn't all over this! Are you kidding with Lucy Napolitano's show coming out we have other important things to tend too sir I hope you realize that yeah okay I can bring it up for if you want uh... I'm looking at now This document contains TPP confidential information modified handling authorized Four years from entry. This document must be protected from unauthorized disclosures, but may be mailed or transmitted over unclassified email or fax discussed over unsecured phone lines and stored on unclassified computer systems it must be stored in a locked or secured building room or container Why? Because if you actually knew what was in this you would freak out! This is all about evergreening this is the main thing here and this is why they got to do this quiet...

1:40:59 was obtained February 10th, 2011. So when you talk about copyright everyone's like it's copyright and patents or as they would say in the Queen's English Patents but it's kind of... The red herring is the copyright so let's make a lot of noise about oh copyright file sharing ISPs blah blah blah but what it truly is about is evergreening copyrights So if a publisher owns the copyright to your book for a certain amount of time Regardless of whatever the hell you think. You've got mr.. Dvorak It's gonna be evergreen forever so intellectual, but nothing will ever go into the public domain They'll be owned by Hollywood forever that's just to get the media on board for the true purpose which is evergreening of patents and

1:41:47 medicines, genetically modified organisms. They will own stuff forever! Where's the language in there that says any of this? Okay I didn't highlight it for the purposes of this show. I figured you just take my word for it... Wrong! But I'm not wrong though seriously And this is... No, taking my... No no I know. I know you don't believe me. Uh... No it's not that I don't believe ya' I just think you may have been... You may have uh... Been doing overboard with your interpretation. I don't think so!

1:42:25 I don't think so. Because it's a violation of the Constitution, that is probably why they want to keep it secret. The Constitution clearly outlines what can and can not be done regarding copyrights and patents. But this has already been changed before we have already extended the copyrights and patents in fact the holders of the Viagra patent got 293 extension on that in 1994 These things happen all the time. So, you know... Constitution's a monstitution! Bomb Libya, bomb Syria But now all of sudden it's about your copyright over your books Now you're like oh this is no good This is unconstitutional We've bombed some people I thought what do you mean? I always said the same thing I'm very strict constitutionalist Pound people to death in the desert and then you're like eh get used to it What was I an advocate of this? Let's kill them all Squirrel

1:43:21 I agree. Patent shall be available for any new forms, uses or methods of using a known product in a new form... I'm trying to find that now you're like caught me. This is now a theme this goes into the theme book as something we have to follow closely especially since they're trying to cover it up those go ahead say it say it Okay, so here it is. Overall this is now this I'm paraphrasing so I'm gonna have to not look into it and hopefully other people will do some of the work because there's a interesting and of course we only have parts of the document The proposal for the TPP... Where are some WikiLeaks when we need them? Oh please! It's not important to them

1:44:06 Overall, the intellectual property chapter of this TPP agreement would include a number of features that would lock in as global norm many controversial features of US law such as endless copyright terms. Create new global norms that are contrary to US legal traditions such as those proposed to damages for infringement This is a big one by the way. It's like you go to go away forever The enforcement of patents against surgeons and other medical professional professional rules Oh, you know what? That's all about tell me They have a lot of, you know, you can have process patents now. And so there's a certain... There may be a procedure that some surgeon may develop and he'll patent it and you can't use that procedure without paying the guy! I'm dying! I'm sorry this procedure is copyrighted. Literally! This is great! Hey we should get into the porn patenting business. Now see that stuff I just did? That's patented

1:45:08 You can't do that legally. We'll come bust your door down Well, you know that's why- That's where this all leads It all leads to crazy things happening But you're actually right I think you've got a point there Rules concerning patents on biologic medicines Disclosure of information from ISPs. This is crazy! Undermine many proposed reforms of the patent and copyright system such as, for example, propose legislation to increase access to orphaned copyright works by limiting damages for infringement... this is interesting or statutory exclusions of non-industrial patents such as those issued for business methods Wow you're right it's a total takeover of everything

1:45:48 But the red herring is get everyone like bitching and moaning about getting thrown in jail for copyright file sharing. That's the red herr- I'm going to turn my, blackout! I'm turning my icon black Meanwhile when your lungs turn black and you can't get the procedure because you can't pay for the patent, the copyrighted move A double stitch. Is someone feeding you lines? That was good! The double stitch. Oh, I'm gonna go to jail for using that. I used their patented groovy sound

1:46:27 So anyway, at some point this whole show is going to be a violation. Well it's interesting you bring that up because YouTube... I want people to enjoy it while they can Yeah please do because we are soon-to-come ladies and gentlemen And John you actually said..I think you said on twit and everyone was like oh hoho! That's just Dvorak being wacky! That's not my Leo impersonation by the way that is just me You have said Where this is all leading to, is that you will have to have a license to do this show. Just like we'll have to have a license and it's obvious what were so close to because now YouTube has copyright school Have you heard of this? I want to watch it though Okay well You listen to the audio and then you can watch it So if you've been busted for copyright infringement What you have to do on your first strike is you have to go and watch this cartoon Which by the way is a blatant

1:47:26 Rocky and Bullwinkle rip off in itself, which is just unbelievable that no one is calling BS on YouTube for this I'm Google for doing this. It's totally rocky and bullwinkle Just you know ripped off those intellectual property characters Yeah They got the squirrel and they got the moose except they're called something else now so squirrel And I said squirrel you're right. I didn't comply So I'm gonna play you three little clips from this. You have to watch the whole thing, so first of all it's the setup because you're too stupid understand copyright we've got a ram it down your sad slave throat. Oh! You didn't create that video? You just copied someone else's content Uploading someone else's content without permission could get you into a lot of trouble It may be copyright infringement

1:48:17 By the way, the squirrel's getting hit on the head with a hammer. When he gets in trouble you get hit on the head with a hammer apparently. Copyright is a form of protection for original works of authorship including literary, dramatic musical graphic and audiovisual creations. Copyright infringement occurs when a copyrighted work is reproduced distributed performed or publicly displayed without the permission of the copyright holder or the legal right to do so Even though YouTube is a free site, you can get in serious trouble for copyright infringement. You can be sued and found liable for monetary damages! You could lose your booty or worse...you could lose your YouTube account

1:49:05 You only get a few chances. If YouTube receives a valid notification of alleged copyright infringement from a copyright holder for one of your videos, the video will be removed in accordance with the law you'll be notified via email and In your account and you'll get us to write if YouTube finds you're a repeat offender You'll get banned for life Here's an idea, why not make your own video? Right. So this is the... What do they think we're idiots?! Yes Who wrote- who did it who produced this piece of garbage I don't know if that had credit or credits Maybe it did I can see why! Yeah so then Of course we have this little something called Fair Use

1:49:55 So, do you think that they would... how would they explain fair use if we... Well fair use they probably have a whole video about that because thats actually very complicated but at the same time simple. Okay so the way they do this is the fair use which is read almost like a disclaimer old school really fast and unintelligible Really small letters roll across the screen and you see the fair use sign is squeezing the squirrel because on you You don't want to deal with a fair use is complicated. You need a lawyer No, no, you don't think about fair use fair use? No. No that's bad. You don't want to use fair use YouTube provides tools for rights holders to control the use of their content

1:50:33 I'm sorry, that's the wrong one. Here is the fair use clip. Did you get permission for it? Mashups or remixes of content may also require permission from the original copyright owner depending on whether not the use is a fair use In United States copyright law allows for the fair use of copyrighted material under certain limited circumstances without requiring permission from the owner Under the law, determination of fair use takes into account certain conditions How horrible is that? What, what wait a minute you did that. No that is the way the video is They sped it up Yeah yeah so one of the most important

1:51:20 protection protections aspects of free speech yes it's fair use and they said this so they just trivialize it marginalizing with this bull crap at the end like that they should be ashamed of themselves these people who are they who is the head of this operation Sergei Brin now he's gonna need to find out excuse me excuse me do I like this president of the United States Rapunzel was responsible for a lot of stuff screw Sergei Brin Sergei you're evil He should call a stop to this. He of all people should call a stop to this who use fair use of software all the time I got very angry when i saw this It not only trivializes, it trivializes the whole idea of fair use and completely squishes it in you can hear the squirrel getting blown up by the Fair Use Clause like getting squished Consult a lawyer You don't need to consult a lawyer with fair use That's literally what they said, consult a lawyer

1:52:17 You couldn't hear it because it was sped up. I heard the part, I heard him say consult a lawyer every time he had to deal with fair use which is most use you know quoting... It's what bloggers do when they take a clip from somebody's article and they dropped the clip two sentences at the beginning of an article in their headline or fair use no one's ever been sued over it And you don't need to call a lawyer every time you do it? It's ridiculous! So of course this is the final bit If you think that your account has been closed or your video taken down unjustly, YouTube has tools...tools available. But John don't you dare misuse those tools! YouTube provides tools for rights holders to control the use of their content

1:53:12 If someone takes down your video by mistake, or as a result of misidentification of the material to be removed there's a counter notification process for that. You can send YouTube notice that there was an error but be careful if you miss use the process you could end up in court and then you would get in a lot of trouble That how the law works! Well I'll give you, you win today's show. How sad is that though really? That's pathetic It really hurts You can go into a funk again and maybe we will get more donations No no I'm not going into no funk Not over that...I could go into a funk over the Belgian cleric Bishop Rogier

1:54:14 Van Geluwe. Wow, I can't even pronounce that. Nice try! That's pretty bad let me try that again. Van Geluwe. Yeah it's Belgian. He went on TV to talk about how he sexually abused two boys but doesn't see himself as a pedophile He said, I had nothing to do with sexuality. Oh he just likes the company? He says look... He's asexual Of course i know this was not good! I've confessed many times

1:54:56 Oh, well there you got it. He describes the 13 years of sexual abuse to which he had subjected one nephew from the age of five as more than a little piece of intimacy and he says as with all families when the boys came to visit the nephew slept with me. Yeah that happens- With all families! Oh my god I think i'm gonna puke It's terrible. Uh... Most of these guys are deluded. It began as a game with the boys, it was never a question of- Oh I bet it was! It was never a question of rape. Oh my god! I don't have the impression at all that I'm pedophile he says. It was really just a small relationship. I did not have the feeling that my nephew was against it quite the contrary. And you know this is unbelievable This is just unbelievable

1:55:53 You know, Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore. They have to save the world and I don't know if there's an ulterior motive but i think their hearts really in the right place but so they're going out on Piers Morgan and they are trying to stop sex slave trafficking This has been, by the way I started spotting these sex trades, sex slave meme has been floating around and to be honest about it whether they have intentions are good or bad. I've seen too much of it out-of-the blue to not be suspicious as either a movie coming out... Yeah that's horrible! There is a movie coming out because this is just would this is out of the blue

1:56:38 I mean it's not a new problem, it didn't start up last week and now this is all over the place. And of course that's the old thing oh we want to make people aware of it well so what? So they're aware of it doesn't change anything how about changing get out get off Piers Morgan and go do something! I mean this kind of talk talk talk oh now they're aware but have done my job doesn't you haven't done anything. I want to like these people and think their hearts are in the right place. For some reason, those two in particular, they're just dumb. They really mean well but I hear them talking and I don't have any clips or anything

1:57:18 I hear them talking like, you know it's so hard to get politicians involved. I'm like duh the politician with the most hookers in America are in Washington DC You're not gonna get anyone trying to help you out I mean their story after story of judge of you know And not all police officers but in the justice system itself I've said this many times and that was the entire Justice System is one big horrible mess of pedophilia It's like you, in fact you better watch out if your not on board with some program. You actually could wind up in the hot tub with a cover on be very very careful and this is non-starter so I think there's a movie or something involved here because this coming out of the blue it's short lived phenomenon nothing going to change and that there will be some benefit just you know we'll have start doing research but it won't last No probably no

1:58:15 Then as a final thing for me John which does include a little clip There was an interesting. Let me just see if I can find it here Interesting note and there was a company PR company that I've started to investigate And it really like one like wow this is pretty amazing you just see where is it here? This is the huh, why can't I find it now peeing me off It's the And I have to search for it. Oh, well while you're searching for that a couple of short clips from some guy named I think is Hertz guard Mark Hertz guard is some warmest douchebag That was on democracy now pretty much condemning everybody For you know anyone who doesn't believe in global warming? I thought these guys had given up on and they've thought they changed the moniker But apparently not you can play either warmest a hole or warmest to help lay them both be able to science. Let's house

1:59:15 skeptics and the media, I'm very sorry to say the mainstream media at least calls them climate skeptics. They are not skeptics genuine skeptics are invaluable to science that's how science progresses is with skepticism but a true skeptic can be persuaded by evidence. They cannot, they have made up their minds for economic reasons or ideological reasons that they're not going to believe in this and because our country has allowed them to dominate the debate for 20 years we're now stuck with 50 more years of rising temperatures We are now locked in my daughter and the rest of Generation Hot are locked into living under the hottest most volatile climate our civilization has ever known. Science! Science! Oh what a douche

1:59:55 debt generation generation hot baby let's play the second clip on my daughter and her generation have to live with this and i think that's a terrible crime all the uh... extreme weather in the past eight years as a lot of debate us whether we can reasonably link that to climate change whether it's did the heat wave in new york city of record he didn't two thousand ten the floods in pakistan date the weather problems in Europe in 2003, your sense of that? The individual events versus the general trends. There's only debate about that in the United States of America and we get this all the time now where people say well you know there is all this disagreement. There is not any disagreement unless you are watching Fox News and listening to the

2:00:42 uh... house republican party look at the uh... countries in europe for example conservative parties are running france none of those conservative political parties have oh my gosh The science is in! Science! Squirrel. What an a-hole That's what I said Oh my god, well this actually plays right into what i was about to do This plays right into it So the reason why... so of course this all is promoted by huge PR companies

2:01:22 And the way you get something in the news, John we've said it time and time again is you gotta have some science. Science! You gotta have a study So I read about this particular, because the Polish administration has hired the PR firm of Burson Marsteller to help run its EU presidency later this year. One of the big ones Right! so they're young and Rubicam They are part of WPP They're huge! So I'm like why don't just go over and take a look at their website for Burson Marsteller Oh my gosh. So the first thing I... What do you want to do? You want look at case studies, like what have they done so far in case we wanted to hire them to promote our show

2:02:09 So they've be on easy street, so did you know that the earth our campaign is one of theirs? You know where you turn off the lights. You didn't think it's like cropped up somewhere And everyone went well hey this is a good idea. Oh, yeah, it was like what this wasn't like a hey This wasn't like a Twitter thing no this was a sophisticated PR effort and they were hired to To, and by the way this Earth Hour campaign was developed by the WWF. The World Wide Wildlife Foundation to raise awareness of climate change

2:02:49 Encourage energy efficiency and make a significant contribution towards reducing carbon footprints. Yeah, a significant contribution So they were hired they came to the game late but I guess they stole a piece of the business of Earth Hour They were supposed to help India join Earth Hour so how did they do this is fascinating because they put it on their website? so in 2010 They worked with the WWF, that's their client in the hope of expanding the reach of Earth Hour to cities beyond Delhi and Mumbai through a cost-effective integrated PR campaign that targeted a core audience of urban youth and prominent corporations with the hope of exceeding previous targets. So how do we do that? Well, we got to get some celebrities! So Burson Marsteller developed a unique campaign

2:03:42 that kicked off with a press conference featuring Bollywood superstar Abhishek Bachchan as the brand advocate for Earth Hour 2010. Is it starting to come clear people how this works? Hire a celebrity! Then they worked in conjunction with The Hindustan Times Group, i.e., like a huge media conglomerate, the media, in a pro bono arrangement Which means, I don't know. No money but blow me anyway? There is...I don't know where the pro bono comes from one way or the other Pro-problono It's beside the point go on Leveraging print radio and outdoor advertising to convey important campaign messages Oh they got the ads for free Yeah exactly Right The campaign was supported by HT's radio channel Fever 102 Radio DJs delivered targeted messages! Yeah I bet they did that for free

2:04:35 Then they developed a customized Earth Hour 2010 website, there's another 100 grand. And created Facebook and Orkut communities to register participants and provide further details on the campaign! So this whole Earth Hour which you thought foolishly was like hey this is something good why don't we just all do this? Turn off the lights... It's like turning your Twitter icon black but then you've been completely manipulated by the compromised media So now I start reading a little bit about how they do their work and they have two disciplines that are unique to To what they call B&M Burson Marcell, they're unique unique unique capabilities And one of them and John this blew me away is evidence-based communications

2:05:26 Oh, this is a learn a lot from these you can learn a ton I have a this is their own promotional video and they have all their douchebags there evidence-based communications which is code for scientists being paid to come up with a study that proves your point. Evidence based communications um is a fundamental part of everything we are doing moving forward at Burson Marsteller. Certainly it's part of client service, meaning in our everyday work for the clients that already have and showing them that research and empirical tools will make them better and will make us better as an agency. Evidence-based communications is a way to say to our clients first and foremost you're going to make this investment and we want to show you what you get out of it What could that investment be? And John what do you think

2:06:17 Sounds to me like they're investing in a study of some kind of science. They employ scientists. Here's where you are now or here is what your reputation is now, or here is what we believe the best message can be for now. And if you do this and make these investments here's what we believe that you can move to. Here's how much better you can be." I start from that framework that I found many clients were willing really go through all of the extra steps not wanting an answer first but wanting a process getting to the answer. Oh! I love that

2:07:04 having a process of getting to the answer. In other words, Here wait, in other words more billable hours But go ahead obviously more billable hours but it's kind of defined. It's like you know Okay We're gonna have all these hours that we're gonna build to you but then you'll have a study at the end of piece of paper That is definable its empirical its empirical tools there was supported not just with great creative and messaging but with really hard facts that led to those conclusions because the probability that they're going to be successful is so much higher when they go through that process. And now we've expanded the tools out from just research to so many other tools... Look, at the end of day, the prospect is going to spend their hard-earned money on an agency to help them achieve some result

2:07:49 and we can either make stuff up and guess at a solution, and walk into the room pitch a solution that hasn't been tested or isn't empirical. We can all wonder well, we like those guys and they seem smart and will buy that and will someday wonder if we were successful or not. Or we can come into this process and say we have empirical tools that will allow us to measure how we're doing, allow you to have confidence in us as an agency. Allow us to have confidence in the recommendations that were giving you and to me that completely changes the nature of new business conversation within our industry there's no other firm I think they can bring together the capabilities evidence-based infuse it into our everyday client relationships

2:08:30 There you go. Evidence-based communication It's how it works. Yeah, well it has been that way for I don't know the last three or four years. I know but its nice to put a name to it. Oh is actually great that these guys came...I mean this is how talk about hubris we talked about this was the theme of the show Talked about hubris they actually come out and just lay it all out not you know not try to

2:09:18 keep it to themselves or did I mean essentially there's been long since the these PR companies have long I know many of the people that are involved with this and they're just there was yeah yes what we do i mean we we manipulate the media because the mini-media is a bunch of idiots anyway and the public will go along with what the media tells them, and we can tell them what to do. And they're very straightforward about it I mean they're not trying to cover it up, you know? They are not trying to hide anything It's just a fact that the public doesn't seem to make the leap to figure this out That this is what happening to them As long as they don't, this will continue Well... And they never will by the way Well there is one more thing and that is their discipline known as E-fluential

2:10:04 Because in 1998 Burson Marsteller identified a group of online opinion makers which they call E-fluentials, which has little R by the way. It's a registered trademark. Oh! Who have exponential influence shaping and driving public opinion through the internet and throughout the offline world Compared with the average internet user E-fluentials are far more active in their usage of email, news groups bulletin boards listservs other online vehicles when conveying their messages. While they're extremely influential online e-fluentials also spread their opinions in the offline world as well Their families and peers regularly approach them for information opinions and advice on a wide range of subjects now e-fluentials over the past nine years And so you said you know The public will never hear about it

2:10:53 Think about if you know anyone like this. Over the past nine years we have extended our knowledge of e-fluentials with research on segment specific influential audiences including tech influentials, mom fluentials and youth fluentals Each influential segment is nuanced in terms of how its members influence their peers and how they can be most effectively reached by organizations. In other words, people who you are listening to on podcasts watching in online video segments are paid for their communication this is what the mommy bloggers is all about who actually get paid to tweet about vaccines Who knows who else is being paid to promote something?

2:11:40 Because these guys talk, here's your hubris right here. They actually pay people to influence your technology buying the mom fluentials for the stuff that you buy in the supermarket and the youth fluentials for God knows what Yeah no I know this is a fact okay now here's the interesting part of this Burson Marsteller Ogilvy all these guys Ogilvy has a whole operation very similar and which is about social media. And the idea is that they can, you know they want to get these bloggers they wanna get... You know who they are their name crops up all of time I am not one of them! I have not gotten a check from a PR agency in my life. I have to be honest? I have to be completely honest with you right now?! I AM A MEMBER OF THE MILFLUENTIAL GROUP! Yeah okay anyway back to seriousness so there's what they don't wanna talk about

2:12:38 And I'm gonna, people should, people who listen to the whole show will get a kick out of this because you know lot of people never get to the end of the show and they probably should. What they don't want to talk about is that this doesn't work! Oh really? Oh, well that sucks. The old way works better I mean they still do the old way with the DJs and the hot Bollywood stars and you know George Clooney's in there that still works let me just read this is a report that has been suppressed came out of 4C it was out of UK talking about the UK marketing mix we have to do our own report or do some research to prove this in the US too might be a little different but this was a study done on primary influences

2:13:18 on what the percent of shoppers that people where people why people would go buy something from anyone, buy an idea by a product by any by anything. And this is the order of influence from top to bottom did number one influence what makes you want to buy anything is the familiarity with the brand right? That's 46% number two when it comes on Sorry, what no I just coughed sorry Oh number two is search engine results really 13% then promotional emails 10%. By the way we have meal but he influentials do promotional emails don't they and search results can also be This is just a pure play word-of-mouth

2:14:07 Which is another 10%. TV, newspaper radio magazine ads. Internet ads. Interaction on social networks comes in at 3% So in other words Obama is a shoe-in for the next election because of his brand awareness? Yeah! Probably right? Shopping comparison websites by the way came in 2%, which is bad news for them. Blogs 1%. and product review websites which is the sorry number one percent. So these things are exaggerated, they've been hyped and pumped. In fact the mechanism itself that these guys produce, the PR people... They've actually promoted this concept to themselves! They've influenced themselves! I'm just saying as anybody who runs a corporation wants to deal with this Don't waste your money

2:15:04 Well anyway, this once again proves that we have the right idea. And the idea is don't try and sell anything except for a great product and let people figure out if they want to send you some money for it. And I quite simply wake up and am happy about it. I'm poor but I'm happy! And you should be while your broke. It's not just dimming me in portals. And I don't have to wear that douchebag suit these guys are wearing Now I do have an end of show clip which contrasts mightily with what we've just been talking about. I think it is the culmination of where TV is headed, It was a clip taken with Alicia Cuthbert, the pretty blonde actress on The Jimmy Kimmel Show and I think this summarizes the direction in which television is headed And uh...I'm not really complaining about that much So we don't have to come back after that clip? No were done, that clip ends the show

2:16:00 Remember everybody Dvorak org slash na so the things we're looking for for our next program Which will be on Thursday is why did we want to kick Russia out of the Mediterranean? What do we want from them that's the one thing We got a bail lookout for and the other one is we're still looking for an RV for the gitmo nation tour hot pockets across America And your help, of course is highly appreciated in Finding that someone's got to have one of these things that we can borrow for a couple of weeks I would hope And as always, nice talking to you twice a week John. Good talking to you too Sir Adam. Breaker breaker! Coming to you from Gitmo Nation West here in the People's Republic of Southern California at the Hilltop Watchtower Crackpot Command Center In The Morning To You All I'm Adam Curry and it's in the morning someplace obviously I am from Northern Silicon Valley that is where I am anyway at the moment. In the Buzzkill Bunker I'm John C

2:16:59 We'll talk to you again on Thursday right here on No Agenda. That might ruin it, but you know what? You know when you're with someone for a substantial amount of time. It's hard especially with guys to come up with great gifts Oh I never told you this story...I ordered him A friend of mine said because we have a pool table and he loves to play pool with the guys and whatnot I don't play pool But he's great at it And so a girl friend of mine said there is this website that does custom balls You can get them custom What's custom about them? Custom you can put their either like their name in there. In the ball? In the ball they're clear but they have, you know... That's kind of cool

2:17:44 I was like, you know what? This is a clever idea. Yeah this is something here. This is like a novelty gift. Something you need yeah definite need not want it's a need no no it wasn't fun unique yes yeah so I get on the phone and call order them and then they show up finally and and my open the box and you know the balls No! They were supposed to say Dion Phaneuf and he said Chloe and Lamar Odom Why? One athlete got one guy's balls and the other athlete got the other guys' balls. You swapped balls with the Kardashian-Odoms? The company swapped balls! The company swapped our balls, so I got Lamar's balls and he got Dionne's balls. Oh wow... Hollywood you know

2:18:37 That's a collective item, huh? I'm like, hey Chloe can i get my guys balls back please. Oh wow! I definitely would have kept the Odum balls. I did actually. I did. Oh what was the point of all that?!
