About this episode

London prepares for the 2012 Summer Olympics with a massive military security exercise titled Olympic Guardian, featuring the HMS Ocean warship berthed at Greenwich. The deployment includes snipers in helicopters authorized to shoot rogue pilots and surface-to-air missiles stationed on residential rooftops. Critics suggest the presence of an aircraft carrier in the Thames serves domestic crowd control and potential prisoner detention rather than foreign defense.

Warren Buffett and Berkshire Hathaway recently acquired a major stake in Marel Food Systems, signaling a shift toward robotic automation in the global chicken industry. Meanwhile, the CIA released seventeen documents from the Abbottabad raid, with President Obama and Brian Williams highlighting trivial details like the White House Situation Room ordering Costco pizza to maintain secrecy. In the Libertarian Party, former Governor Gary Johnson secured the presidential nomination, pledging to balance the federal budget and end the war on drugs.

Adam Curry recounts a vivid nightmare involving Kris Jenner and the Kardashian family, while John C. Dvorak mocks the rise of Wantologists and Dutch gerbil coaches. The show honors Sir Lorne Osterman of Austria with a knighthood as the Prague Zombie Walk provides a satirical backdrop to the mechanical nature of modern life.

Adam Curry, John C. Dvorak, Mold Allergies, Kardashian Dreams

Adam Curry and John C. Dvorak open the show from Austin, Texas, and Northern Silicon Valley. Curry describes suffering from severe mold allergies common in Austin, which have caused dizziness and low energy. He recounts a vivid nightmare involving tracking Kris Jenner and the Kardashians, which Dvorak attributes to Curry's subconscious interest in reality television.

CHAPTER 02 / 46 Discussion

Global Elections, Cairo Riots, Armenia Explosion

Elections are held across Greece, France, Italy, Egypt, and Armenia, though the hosts note a lack of coverage on American television. Riots in Cairo are reported to have spread toward the Suez Canal, potentially threatening the waterway. Additionally, a major explosion is reported to have occurred in Armenia during their election cycle.

CHAPTER 03 / 46 Discussion

European Union, Super President Plot, HMS Ocean

The Daily Express reports on a supposed covert plot by EU foreign ministers to merge the roles of the President of the European Council and the President of the European Commission into a single, unelected "super president." The hosts express skepticism regarding the validity of the report. Meanwhile, the HMS Ocean, the Royal Navy's largest warship, has been moved into the Thames for Olympic security.

european union· herman van rompuy· josé manuel barroso· the daily express· hms ocean

05:52 I don't know if this is, this has got to be some kind of plant. This was from the Express, The Daily Express which is not a highly rated newspaper in the United Kingdom. EU plot to scrap Britain that's the headline Senior Eurocrats are secretly plotting to create a super powerful EU president to release their dream of abolishing Britain we can reveal A covert group of EU foreign ministers has drawn up plans for merging the jobs currently done by Heiko Hermann van Rompuy, President of the European Council Starfleet Command and José Manuel Barroso, President of the European Commission. The new bureaucrat

06:36 who would not be directly elected by voters, duh. That's probably the only thing true here is set to get sweeping control over the entire EU and force member countries into ever greater political and economic union just draw a mustache on that dude and then we're done this can't be based on any truth do you think? No it doesn't sound right that just sounds like you know just making people nuts of the Express. We're talking about making people nuts in London, they brought in into the Thames the world's largest British battleship. Well it's an aircraft carrier. It's huge! It's a aircraft carrier? The HMS Ocean yeah because they have to be able to launch against... here play HMS Ocean in London part one

CHAPTER 04 / 46 Discussion

London Olympics, Military Security, Surface-to-Air Missiles

London prepares for the Olympic Games with a massive security exercise titled "Olympic Guardian," featuring the HMS Ocean berthed at Greenwich. Security measures include fighter jet training, snipers in helicopters authorized to shoot pilots of rogue planes, and the controversial deployment of surface-to-air missiles on residential rooftops. Officials cite the need to protect against "9-11 style" threats and "lower, slower" targets like drones.

07:23 As London prepares to host the Olympic Games, another large-scale security exercise has taken place on the River Thames. The Royal Navy's largest warship HMS Ocean, it sailed into the heart of London where during the games it'll be part of the task force protecting the city against possible terror attacks On board? The BBC's defence correspondent Jonathan Beale Oh! The Navy's largest warship was never designed for this Only last year HMS ocean was launching attacks over Libya today. She was trying to navigate the narrow passages of the Thames This the hardest part with no room for mistakes Just managing to squeeze through The Thames barrier ship is coming under attack from fighter-bomber her crews already been rehearsing how to deal with any potential attack I think must be a bitch to parallel park you have to

08:18 Back it up a little bit because they're doing a test and that you can hear the guy on the radio being attacked He says be I heard it. He said we've got fighter jets incoming being attacked We got fighter jets coming in what? Telling me that the Olympic Games are expecting no no no fighter jets would be coming in Would you mind me to interject with a little clip that I picked up oh about what's going on in London. It's not just fighter jets, baby! It's a lot more than this aircraft carrier that's just the tip over the iceberg Well I got to... well then you might..I also have my second clip which is part of this which is a continuation and I bet it contains the same stuff you've got hit it Alright well play yours

08:57 Mine first okay? Yeah, yeah airing for the worst case Olympic scenario now right there. I'm like oh yes Worst case Olympic scenario This is the military and police dealing with a simulated terrorist attack during the training exercise earlier this year We love we love those exercises don't wait That's always when the good stuff happens and this week London will see more intensive security testing they're calling it Olympic Guardian. Britain trying to show the world that it's ready to protect the Games and also hoping to deter terrorists. We have got to make sure that we have got a plan in place that can deal with the unlikely

09:38 but very serious threat that might exist to the Olympic Park. The sort of 9-11 threat that everybody knows about." Oh, love it! 9-11 threat... What? They're gonna shoot down that Gherkin?! That big pickle building is that what they're gonna do with a plane?? "...and also for the lower slower type of target..." I love that! The lower slower type of target you know what that's referring to don't ya? The homeless. No drones that will squirt poison Yeah, that's what they're worried about. The lower slower targets which might pop up closer to... This is my pop-up! It's just my oh what popped up there? Oh a drone! ...the Olympic Park which we would need to intervene So that's why from Wednesday there'll be fighter jets training in the skies over London and why this block of flats is one of six potential sites which could house surface-to-air missiles

10:32 That's what I am. Man pads, yeah baby! For Londoners military scenes much closer to home than usual the Royal Navy's HMS Ocean will berth at Greenwich The skies above the Olympic Park will be a no-fly zone this summer and the last resort is for snipers in helicopters to shoot pilots on rogue planes Now let me say something We're gonna sit in helicopters And when the plane comes by they're gonna shoot the pilot. That's a dumb report! But you play mind it is very similar. ...with any threats from the air while police and Marines in fast boats will scan the river The arrival of this warship in London is not just a reminder that the Olympics is a major sporting event, It's also a massive security operation and the military presence is not just confined to here on the Thames

CHAPTER 05 / 46 Discussion

Olympic Security Skepticism, Floating Jails, Thames Barriers

The hosts question the necessity of bringing an aircraft carrier into the center of London for a sporting event, suggesting the military presence is intended for domestic crowd control rather than foreign threats. A theory is proposed that the HMS Ocean could serve as a floating jail for arrested protesters. Technical details regarding the Thames barriers and the lack of visible aircraft on the ship's deck are also discussed.

london· thames· hms ocean· crowd control· floating jail

11:28 Up in the skies above London, there'll be Navy, Army and RAF helicopters sun-manned with snipers patrolling the skies along with typhoon fast jets. All poised to deal with any potential threat It's the plans to deploy missiles close to the venue and in this case directly on top of a block of flats that have caused The greatest controversy and prompting. The question is all this military hardware necessary, you know We need to work on our own reporting from the Olympics this year. We need some people that are going to tell us what's going on, get some photos for us. Well what we need is one of those... Boots-on-the-ground is what we need! Besides that, we need one of those sounds you're inside the helicopter. Here we go from the London side of the Olympics John, what do you see on the ground?

12:26 That's right, the HMS London is down below. Can you see it John? Can you see the snipers? Oh, it's gonna be a great Olympic season. We're gonna do just fine millions of dollars Olympic fever wandering in a bad economic Situation by the way London is not on the ocean It's inland and so why do you need all this? You know for what are you bringing about an aircraft carrier into the middle of the city And and like well I wonder jets flying around when you have all this lead time

13:16 I mean these, if there was an attack by some alien... You want to be out a little bit. You think there would be someone that would notice? By the time it got to London. They do have radar along the coast, you know? Yes they do! They've got South End... Who are they kidding with this crap?! Are they trying to imply that there's a jet fighter an Al Qaeda jet fighter near the city ready to take off is that what they're saying nobody noticed this thing yeah on the Isle of Wight said Gatwick You know remember the Olympics it used to be like you'd see these great stories on television of heroes who worked them? You know a guy had one arm, and you know then he overcame all the incredible The odds were against him and up that uh we had a national anthem playing And yeah was all about the sport and now it's all about who's got the biggest gun Pretty crazy. This is stupid Yeah

14:17 Yeah, and the British should be they should be a it should be embarrassed by this. It should be up in arms Well, they get shot from a sniper and a helicopter More like sounds more like crowd control than it does anything else if you ask me I think they're just caught there's a cover-up for what? They're really up to Well, what could that be? I mean... I think there's plans. Anarchists and others are planning to protest the Olympics and they want to have... They want to be their enforcers. It is not about Al Qaeda it's about the British public Here's something for an idea so maybe they want everyone who they arrest they're gonna put on the aircraft carrier it'll be like a giant floating jail

14:57 That's not a bad idea. There is lots of room on an aircraft carrier. Yeah, yeah And by the way when they brought it in I was watching them bring it through and I don't know what the Thames gates are there these weird looking things that somehow the ship can get through? I don't know if they're clothes or what is that you anything about it No no nothing Anyway so it gets in...I was looking at the thing as it came in there were no planes on it Oh really? I didn't notice any planes. So, I'm sure it's like modern aircraft carriers all the planes are below deck Well let me ask you this question If you're on... They bring them up on an elevator but still... If your'e on the Thames are they gonna actually do we have video of them launching jets from that from the aircraft carrier in the Thames Not yet I doubt it I have a I really doubt they're going to do that

War on Chicken, Warren Buffett, Marel Food Systems

Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway has reportedly purchased a major stake in Marel, a leading chicken processing factory and machinery manufacturer based in the Netherlands. The company's automated systems are used in over 90 countries. The hosts frame this as a significant development in the ongoing "War on Chicken," noting the shift toward robotic processing.

15:40 And what you, you know landing on an aircraft carrier is no small feat by itself. Now You're gonna land on aircraft carrier in the Thames? That's a recipe for disaster. Well Tower Bridge! I'm going with floating jail that's what iIm going with meanwhile John back to another war zone You know it's amazing John C. Dvorak when you first notice this new theater of combat the war on chicken is just it's unbelievable what is taking place right before our very eyes unfolding in the Yeah, and it's a good thing since we have that clip yes We need to use it often Okay number one in the war on chicken This is very disturbing news Warren Buffett

16:37 has now purchased the largest chicken processing factory in the Netherlands. Oh, we talked about that operation on a recent show remember? We talked about the robots that run it. Yep! So he has now purchased this and they not only... They also sell machines that process the chickens and these machines are sold in more than 90 countries So well so the cut the operation and others not only uses the machines, but they yes. They make machines Yeah, that's a good investment yeah, so who knows Americans we got it We don't have enough Mexicans anymore We need machines to take over from the Mexicans But here's something that really did kind of disturb me if you ever heard of runting stunting syndrome

CHAPTER 07 / 46 Discussion

Runting-Stunting Syndrome, Chicken Industry, Wikipedia, Harrier Jets

A local chicken producer reports an outbreak of Runting-Stunting Syndrome (RSS), where birds stop gaining weight despite eating normally. The syndrome is poorly understood by experts but is linked to various viruses and pathogens. The discussion briefly shifts to the limitations of Wikipedia and a technical correction regarding the UK's lack of catapult-based aircraft carriers, relying instead on vertical-takeoff Harrier jets.

runting-stunting syndrome· rss· poultry· wikipedia· harrier jets

17:32 Is that anything like cunning rents? Well, you know so every single Saturday we go to the market and when we want to buy a whole chicken or something Mickey will email Jane who runs the chicken stand. And here's the email she sent back depressing news! We will not be at the market this weekend or next weekend Everything had been going exceptionally well until we put out a flock to field three weeks ago and the birds just stopped growing. They were active and eating but not gaining any weight. After doing a ton of research, we've discovered that our industry has identified something called RSS which made me kind of chuckle of course, runting-stunting syndrome but none of the experts has a clue as to what it is or what to do about it It appears in the winter and spring and disappears as quickly as it arrives Now I do know there's a bad outbreak on the East Coast

18:25 And that another local producer is battling the issue as well. And then our promise is only sell you the best chicken, of course we won't be back until he got good chickens and there's very little about it on The Book Of Knowledge about this. I've never heard of it! Well yeah and we own chickens so... Well I mean I'm telling you to war on chicken someone stopping them from growing researchers have not reproduced all the field symptoms of RSS experimentally and believe that several viruses bacteria and other pathogens may be involved Rio virus was originally thought to be the cause of RSS but adenovirus, enterovirus rotavirus, parvovi-virus and others may also be involved. They really don't know however everyone agrees RSS often suddenly and disappears appears suddenly it disappears equally suddenly making it difficult to determine effective control measures this is weird

19:23 And and I think you'd again. You've just called it red book cross it off war on chicken That's weird running stunting syndrome never heard of this there's like two pages on Google and all of its from 2010 Never are you actually paging through Wikipedia? You have printed it out Isn't that the way you look at things in Wikipedia I still have the internet yellow pages book somewhere remember that oh, yeah. Yeah here's the hey It's all he needs to yellow pages of the Internet one handy volume and

20:03 I'm brilliant Brilliant idiot made money on it, too. Oh yeah that was a moneymaker that book Yeah, I mean it. I loved it Sergio now he's one of your dudes London is actually below sea level which forces the city to use barriers to prevent the river from rising and flooding The city that is what you saw barriers That can be risen the UK no longer has an aircraft carrier with catapults Which is the system the US uses? Oh, you know Harrier jets right? You've got vertical takeoff right with harrier jets. Yeah not at all noisy No, probably the noisiest jet operating today Yeah that was a draw you would be able to hear it throughout the city I like I have to say i like the uh the catapult system better

CHAPTER 08 / 46 Discussion

Bin Laden Documents, Situation Room, Costco Pizza

The CIA released 17 documents from a trove of 10,000 seized during the Abbottabad raid on Osama bin Laden's compound. An NBC report featuring Brian Williams and President Obama highlights trivial details of the mission's planning, such as the national security team eating Costco food and ordering pizza from multiple locations to avoid drawing attention to the White House Situation Room.

osama bin laden· abbottabad· cia· barack obama· costco· brian williams

20:57 Okay, I got plenty of stuff in the campaign category. One of our producers pointed out this awesome... I mean ABC NBC and CBS have really been going to bat. I got a lot of emails from people saying wait a minute these Bin Laden letters all the treasure trove they found that is Abbottabad compound which by the way not a single network pronounces properly they all stay still Abbottabad it's Abbottabad I heard that on no agenda months ago. Yeah, this is the CIA Documents had already been produced and they kind of tested the waters with them in there Was it Time magazine a Washington Post? They were the only ones that had access to them and now yeah Now they've opened up over 10,000 documents 17 have been released

21:47 But did you see that NBC report with Obama and Brian Williams? No, I missed that one. Oh my goodness! Oh that's the one yeah right no I admit...I knew about it but didn't get to clip it. Okay so they have this whole report of clipped out a couple pieces It starts off you've got Brennan two other douchebags I forget who their names are And immediately, it's one big commercial. On Sunday morning May 1st of last year at 11 a.m., members of the national security team started arriving in the Situation Room for what they knew would be a long haul. The Navy SEALs were waiting for nightfall to launch the attack and everyone knew a mistake at this stage of the game would mean scrubbing the mission and so nothing including the provisions for the Situation Room was left to chance

22:40 Is it true you ate Costco food as to not draw any attention and multiple pizzerias were contacted as To prevent any one large order from drawing attention to the gathering. Mr. McDonough, can you confirm those food details? As a big fan of Costco I can confirm that What is this?! There's a big fan of Costco. Costco by the way is a large contributor to the... Oh yeah, they're notorious for giving Obama a bunch money. Yeah so they're like plugging away here at Costco and they just keep it going. So we did eat Costco that night. Costco, Costco. Frankly throughout the day. Is there a Costco in Pakistan? What was the point of this? No no this is for The Situation Room

23:21 Oh, yeah. They had a lot... there's a Costco in Washington DC and that's the pizza they eat? No no no they contacted pizzerias but they had... it's commercial because they have a whole kitchen in The White House! I get it, I get it. I just think of the logic what does the public think? But I guess it makes you think about it which is just a commercial What do you mean what does the public thing? The public just thinks wow those guys are... What am I thinking?! Yeah please don't overanalyze it It's a commercial hello We declassified them? We did not. That's good question That's not a good question. Good question, boss! Suck ass So then President Obama takes Brian Williams who used to do local news pieces on NBC in New York about plastic surgeons now the guy is like the most important journalist in the world and what's funny he never got his nose fixed that's the irony to me

CHAPTER 10 / 46 Discussion

Obama, Homeland TV Show, Nation Building, Campaign Rhetoric

President Obama reveals in a Rolling Stone interview that his favorite television show is "Homeland." In his weekly address, Obama emphasizes "nation building at home" as the war in Afghanistan winds down, using a rhythmic rhetorical style to advocate for middle-class investments and debt reduction. He claims the "tide of war has turned" and that the goal of defeating Al Qaeda is within reach.

barack obama· homeland· afghanistan· nation building· campaign 2012

28:30 So about equal to this podcast. His podcast? Speech to the nation or whatever that thing is. Some douchebag comes on and rebutts it Yeah, which clip am I looking at here? Which makes no sense to me at all. Which clip is that? Well let's see... unfortunately he has so damn many clips it gets lost in the shuffle Obama, oh this is kind of funny by the way. Before you play your clip play this clip Obama likes Homeland and I'm reading The Newisher Rolling Stone And Jan Winter the publisher has an interview with President Obama that I like Jan Winter But I think his interview kind of missed the mark there's some questions He should have asked that he didn't of the president in his interview but I gleaned from that article The president tells Jan Winter their favorite TV show is Homeland

29:26 It's true. Why would anybody like homeland? It stinks! And by the way, to have a smile he has got some sort of boner for Obama because that was a snide remark he made there and he is been on the war path over Obama I mean my favorite tweet recently Albert Brooks made the comment it looks like we are going to be in Afghanistan until 2024 That went well So anyway, here it is. This just a real short clip from his weekly speeches nation building at home Oh I have that one yeah i have the same one yep great one and he reads it incorrectly this is good clip because... I don't have the whole... I'm just saying I don't have the whole no no no this piece is good this piece has read I had this exact same thing After more than decade of war It's time to focus on nation building here at home Implying that we were nation-building overseas

30:25 implying that he can build, why do we need to build our nation? That's implying that you've wrecked the place which he has done. You've wrecked the place and now you have to start from scratch. Nation building is not just putting up a couple of schools I will explain it to him What is he saying here He is saying its the promise! He wants to deliver on the promise. You know the promise don't you? The basic American promise Get fired up and lets leave the office or what is it The basic American promise. You could do well enough to raise a family, own a home send your kids to college and put a little away for retirement That's what it is! Oh yeah just getting by that's what it is but he has a little hip-hop rap in here that he's quite proud of Keeping that promise alive is the defining issue of our time but it means making responsible choices

31:19 I don't think we should prioritize things like more tax cuts for millionaires while cutting the kinds of investments that build a strong middle class. Here it comes! That's why i've called on congress to take the money we're no longer spending at war, use half of it to pay down our debt and use the other half to rebuild America because we've got more jobs to create, more students to educate, more clean energy to generate We gotta create educate and generate bitches hooo He's got nice little rap going there I like it Yeah, his three though I don't have a clip of it. He has this new trio that he uses. Well it's the same thing. No no these are the more vague ones. He got a vague... well I'll get it later we'l do it on Thursday show and have

32:08 Everyone gets a shot, everyone pays their fair share. Yeah that's right the fair share equalizes opportunities so it's a triad and he is saying it over and over again And everyone plays by the same rules It's fair shot pay your fair share play by the same rules But here's something I did not know Because of their bravery and dedication The tide of war has turned in Afghanistan We've broken the Taliban's momentum We've built strong Afghan security forces, we've devastated Al Qaeda's leadership and one year ago our troops launched the operation that killed Osama Bin Laden. The goal that I set to defeat Al Qaeda and deny it a chance to rebuild is within reach." Did he set that goal?

Gary Johnson, Libertarian Party, 2012 Election Strategy

The Libertarian Party nominated former New Mexico Governor Gary Johnson as its presidential candidate. Johnson, who switched from the Republican primary after being excluded from debates, aims to secure one million votes. The hosts discuss his potential to draw votes from both Obama and Romney, his stance on drug decriminalization, and his more animated campaign style.

gary johnson· libertarian party· ron paul· 2012 election· third party

32:58 Was that his goal? I don't remember. What have we been doing for 10 years? It was close Guantanamo, in the war in Iraq the day he got an office immediately you could take that to the bank That's when you could take it to the bank Yeah yeah I hear your cue but I'm just not fast enough Sorry You almost gotta take it to the bank thing? Yeah So he was gonna take it to the bank and then I then he did brag about is gonna do shoot a lot more people But here's the short here one of the libertarians at this weekend. We had the Libertarian Convention which nominated Gary Johnson as their candidate and probably who I've been voting for yeah, but This is very short libertarian comment that you want to play Which was done by one of the guys nominating somebody else for the presidency? but it was very funny this guy was good only One party can be the Party of Peace and it isn't the Republican Party oh

34:01 which will only nominate a candidate who passes two tests. First, they must be pro-life Second, they must want to kill lots of foreigners It isn't the Democratic Party which has rallied around a man who now holds the record for most children killed by a Nobel Peace Prize winner That's good, I like it yeah. Yeah for those you to know Gary Johnson Who I interviewed and we still have the interview up? Oh actually put post a link to that in the show notes 4 0 6 at any shown on comm He switched from running on the Republican ticket where he got squeezed out mainly by CNN who just said you're not in the debate get go away and

34:50 He switched to Libertarian and he won the nomination, which could mess things up actually. I don't think so. No you don't think it's gonna make any difference? No i think is going to get a lot of votes. I think he's gonna actually make a run at they want it... The libertarians made a... They're trying to get 1 million people to vote for this ticket and just to show that there's some viability here because none of these third parties have done very well And it's gonna make a difference with some of the voting tricks that have been changed in certain areas like in San Francisco now they have this new style of primary voting where the top three would you take the top three guys and you have runoffs It's some way shape. I've no idea how it works. I thought it was simple yeah No, it's actually it is simple when it's explained by someone You can't explain it. It is not simple. It's actually pretty simple anyway, so Johnson

35:43 It was a very interesting, you know they get a million votes and it appears to me as though since they're gonna be kind of the peace party. They should be able to take as many votes away from Obama if not more than they're going to take away from the Republicans yeah so I don't think it's gonna make a difference I think is gonna even out but Johnson was a lot livelier than before and I think no I don't want to accuse him of anything but you know this is the drug pro-drug party or legalized decriminalize drugs. I thought he was talking a little faster than usual, sniffing his nose a lot and then finally went to it with his hand and rubbed the hell out of it so you can take that for what its worth but we do have...I'm telling ya Mickey would know

36:26 Hey, hey easy easy. You said yourself that she could spot it you know she's very good at spotting it Yeah well then she would spot it when anyway so the point is that we do have his nomination speech where he Got them to vote for him as an end of show clip today It's about five minutes later I will say that you know when His campaign manager used to work for Ron Paul. He would text me from time to time that kind of stopped after a while And I said the only thing I said back is you know he was it'd be like on Stossel, you know Fox Business News Which no one watches him like yeah, the guy's gotta get riled up You know he's too calm

CHAPTER 12 / 46 Discussion

Guantanamo Bay, 9-11 Military Tribunals, Media Access

Military tribunals for the alleged 9-11 masterminds are underway at Guantanamo Bay, characterized by disruptions from the defendants. The hosts criticize the lack of direct media access and video footage, noting that reports rely on secondhand accounts from family members and a few journalists like Fox News's Katherine Herridge. They question the transparency and legitimacy of the proceedings.

guantanamo bay· gitmo· military tribunals· katherine herridge· 9-11 masterminds

37:08 And the reply I got back was, well you know we're really trying that but he doesn't want to do that and we're really saying you gotta get a little more animated. So maybe that helped a little bit. I think it did! Yeah...I did not say give the boy a toot That was not my advice. But before we get into thanking our one sole producer for today's episode... We have one producer today, this is our people are letting us down Let me just say one thing so while all these distractions are going on um we have in Gitmo which was supposed to be closed three years ago

37:44 We have the 9-11 masterminds, and I'm very confused because I thought we killed the mastermind yet there's four more masterminds that are on trial in Gitmo. And there's no pictures There's no video some family members are allowed to watch this military tribunal It's not a civil court Military tribunal that's taking place in Guantanamo and they're the ones reporting on it How this makes no sense to me This is very, very strange. I mean doesn't all of America have the right to see these guys on trial and all you hear is it's a farce you know? It's crazy they're jumping up and down they're disrupting everything that... All of sudden they are throwing off their headphones They don't want to be... They don't want translators They pray at five... Well of course they pray five times a day You know this is weird Is there even a trial taking place

38:40 I don't know. It's a military tribunal, it's not a trial Yes, military tribunal but they're calling it the trial Yeah they call it a trial Why are we allowed to see it? Why are we not allowed to see it? This is military they don't have to show us anything You understand my point What you want to see it? It would be such a farce, the country would be up in arms. Okay that's why alright but it is extremely disturbing they have family members on and the family members are reporting to the journalists what they saw happen and you look at the pictures there are like nine family members there

39:22 Of the 3,000 people who died in the 9-11 attacks. Well I don't know what they're thinking because if they don't have the reporters in there reporting directly and they take it to secondhand information this could be totally bogus That's kind of my point The only one who I think is there is Pixie Girl from Fox What's her name? Catherine You know the Pixie Girl No I don't which way you talking Yeah you do She's the same one that reported that Anahala Lockheed was Oh that brunette! Yeah with a short hair The Pixie Girl Yeah her she's the one that was mean looking Yeah huh Yeah, that one. She's the only one reporting but even that is like she told us she's not even beaming live No, this is you know it could be a total fabrication for all I know or we all we know those guys aren't even there Yes, I mean always these drawings how come they can take a picture of them in the court? We have to have renderings well That's yeah, that's just a you know whatever we're not gonna get anywhere with that okay alright alright

Sir Lauren Osterman, Austrian Knight, Value for Value

Lauren Osterman from Innsbruck, Austria, is knighted as "Sir Osterman" following a $1,000 donation. The hosts discuss the "value for value" funding model and the recent decline in donation levels. They mention the Sam Peckinpah film "The Osterman Weekend" and encourage listeners to propagate the show's formula if they cannot donate financially.

CHAPTER 14 / 46 Discussion

Body Bombs, Bin Laden Letters, Joe Biden, Richard Clarke

Mainstream media reports claim Al Qaeda is developing non-metallic "body bombs" surgically implanted in terrorists. Declassified letters from the Abbottabad compound suggest Bin Laden ordered the assassination of President Obama but specifically spared Vice President Joe Biden, believing Biden's perceived incompetence would lead the U.S. into crisis. Former counterterrorism official Richard Clarke compares Bin Laden's final days to Hitler in his bunker.

body bombs· diane sawyer· osama bin laden· joe biden· richard clarke

43:30 ABC report mm-hmm with that lush Diane Sawyer So now you'll recall the on the previous report and this one doesn't Doesn't come close Remember we had Brian there a special correspondent who? told us all about the body bombs, and how al Qaeda is now going to put non-metallic bombs into their bodies and the way that we are actually going to detect this is as follows. As to this current threat, US authorities say they have made adjustments in security screening to make it easier to spot the body bombs. But how can they do it? You said there's no metal involved No metal but they've turned up some of the radiation that goes into the body as well looking for people who might have had recent operations might be walking funny or might have surgical scars

44:21 So we just turned up the radiation. I'm gonna put that on my cell phone if i travel. On those safe devices? Yeah, on the safe non-radiation devices We've turned up the radiation and were looking to see if you walk funny so bin laden had the final plot and we knew all about this! We already knew...and I think there's something going on Could there be something going on to discredit Joe O'Biden I don't know but every single report, obviously these papers are bull crap we know that. The whole Abbott Abbot thing. That's why it took so long to release them so they could write them. And they're in Arabic apparently but just listen to this...I clicked a little bit of this ABC News reports same Diane Sawyer

45:09 who is a was drunk and then brian special correspondent of just click the bit of it we see an individual that was a micromanager in more ways i think that we previously understood the documents released today also revealed that london's order to assassinate president obama and not target vice-president biden because quote byton is totally unprepared for their host which will lead the u s into a crisis come on man you know this is somewhat NBC had... What was that all about? Yeah, CBS had exactly the same. In fact it's the same release here listen to their report The letters revealed tensions between Bin Laden and other top terrorists He rebuffed pleas from his deputy Ayman al-Zawahiri to merge Al Qaeda with Al Shabaab in Somalia Merge! And he rejected Anwar al-Awlaki as a proposed leader in Yemen Wait, he rejected him why did we drone the guy? He wasn't even hired

46:05 He wasn't even hired, listen. Although the US-born Alaki had masterminded the 2009 underwear bomb plot Bin Laden asked that Alaki send us the resume His resume didn't check out and they looked at him on Facebook and went no we're not hiring you No way. This is such bogus information I know and by the way just using the word mastermind, mastermind that makes you dronable Mastermind back to the ABC report unquote but it was a plot that never happened and its not clear Bin Laden's orders were even being followed Now here comes Richard Clark. I'm reminded of the final days of Hitler in the bunker in Berlin when he was giving orders for divisions and armies to be moved around, and those divisions and armies didn't exist. I love this! There's nothing better than pulling the Hitler card on somebody. You know, I'm reminded... Hitler in the bunker card? That's the worst! The way he says it is... you know, I'm reminded of Hitler in the bunker. Yes, that was the first thing I thought about.

47:04 The documents paint a portrait of a frustrated leader, afraid to move out of his Abbottabad compound because of US drones and obsessed with TV news coverage of him and his Al Qaeda network. We need to understand that a huge part of the battle is the media, Bin Laden wrote. He was somewhat pathetic old man... Listen to Clark man! He wasn't somewhat pathetic what did you have tea with him? Touch with reality but the organizations that he spun off like the groups in Yemen they are still a threat Oh yeah we got to go after them In fact just today Al Qaeda began to urge its followers to attack the US in a new and troubling kind of method Uh oh what could that be?!

CHAPTER 15 / 46 Discussion

Inspire Magazine, Forest Fire Terror Plot, Ember Bombs

The latest issue of the Al Qaeda-linked "Inspire" magazine reportedly encourages followers to attack the U.S. by starting forest fires using "ember bombs." The hosts examine the magazine, suggesting it may be a "honeypot" operation run by intelligence agencies. They mock the detailed instructions for building remote detonators from motorcycle alarms and cleaning firearms.

inspire magazine· al qaeda· forest fires· ember bombs· langley

47:45 John But bombs I have no idea. No it's troubling and it's new Let me see what would be new what would be new? I'll roll it back a little I Have no idea okay troubling kind of method by setting off forest fires Setting off fire forest fires That's how they're gonna kill us. What? Yeah, they're going to set off... Where was that? Where did that one...? I've been trying to keep up but i didn't catch that one when it happened It gets better Online magazine! It's in Inspire Oh and inspire is that stupid phony magazine Yes so I downloaded... where the intelligence agency runs and says its from the Al Qaeda people yes So I downloaded... Its a honeypot you mean the Honey Pot Magazine? Yes, so let me just explain I have downloaded Inspire Magazine edition 8

48:36 So I expect the knock at the door any minute now. Yeah, you'll get it soon yeah i mean go ahead and just google inspire magazine you get everything from like Home and gardens and all kinds of stuff but then when you do inspire magazine al-qaeda pdf I'm telling you this is exactly what its gonna be You know... It's like The magazine is uh oh Mr. Adam Curry Open up the door Mr. Curry! Now!! So I downloaded the magazine. Hold on, I'm going to open up the magazine and tell you what's in there Nothing by the way... And this is the most recent episode The uh... Let me see... The uh... It's an issue not an episode Yeah it is, yeah. Issue number 8 Issue number eight Um let's just listen to the rest of his report 30 seconds Provided detailed instructions on how to build a so-called ember bomb and where to place it In a hot and dry forest

49:34 instructions that experts say were quite accurate. I think we need to take that very serious and throughout the United States, we are in fire prone areas. Very seriously, I believe it is so they're talking about wildfires but go back for a minute to that poison plot any sign its ongoing? Well in this same Inspired Magazine edition thats just come out there are references a sort of justification for using poison, biological and chemical weapons. So something seems to be cooking according to US authorities. Following up on the poison... Okay thank you so much Brian. And now... Following up on the poison! Following up on the poison! I downloaded Inspire magazine there's not maybe don't have the right edition but he said it was the latest and you went to website and got the latest right? Yes and then here is the only thing i could find

50:20 So you're telling me this report is bogus? I think so. Here, remote control detonation they have that and I love this little article here's the...I'm gonna read this article Detonating your explosive device can be done using many methods What is this?! So they show you how to turn a motorcycle alarm into a remote detonating device And then they show you how to... Motorcycle! That's kind of going out of your way Yeah Yeah. Take the alarm speaker and clip the wires off of it! It's a step-by-step...it's nicely made, by the way! They must have done this in uh...

51:05 Langley. Yeah, in Langley Dr. Kott-Katir has written the article about remote detonation it's a good read! It's absolutely hilarious you know it just they got step by step instructions almost like you're reading a Radio Shack manual now and then they show here's how to clean your gun really I don't know, maybe it's the wrong edition. I don't know. Well they had their remote Danny and I think they're making this up It is a possibility yes They just took it off of the press release Oh my goodness be very afraid of forest fires well guess what then in Texas we're the first ones to go The minute there's a forest fire starting here I'm going to be running down the street yelling that Diane's... Are you in a wooded area?

CHAPTER 16 / 46 Discussion

Homegrown Terror Skepticism, Australian Firebombing, Civil Liberties

The hosts argue that the threat of homegrown terrorism is exaggerated to justify crackdowns on the public, noting a lack of actual evidence of domestic plots. They compare the current security climate to World War II, where documented German espionage did not result in the same level of civilian restrictions. Reports also claim Al Qaeda has named Australia as a prime target for firebombing.

51:58 Well, everything is when we get into drought season. Well right here nearby Steiner Ranch That's what was burning remember those huge fires last summer that was here Yeah, yeah it was right right here to the minute that happens I'm calling terrorist attack I'm not calling you know severe drought and someone smoking a dube and tossing out the window no No with all these tips and things you could do. I mean there's a if any American living in the US of A can think of about, I don't know maybe a half dozen to a dozen interesting little things you could do if you wanted disrupt things and didn't give a crap about yourself. And you didn't mind getting shot to death or caught and beaten or whatever? You want just cause havoc? There's an oil refinery over here there is one up the street. We got a few of those. Highway 80 is about 1 2 3 4 in the area

52:47 And you know, you can get into those places. But and there's forests all over Marin is up and down the business it was woods everywhere and up the hill in Berkeley I mean There's a bunch of things you could do that if you were a troublemaker How come we haven't seen any evidence of any of this nobody's doing anything because there are no homegrown terrorists It gets even worse. There's nothing going on ladies and gentlemen look around so in Australia one guy throws a match into a bunch of brush over outside of Austin, so one guy he's got that said there is your one guy I mean this is unbelievably ridiculous this crackdown on the public

53:29 based on this phony threat when there's no evidence that anything is going on. During World War II, you could document the amount of intrigue that was going with German operatives floating around trying to blow up bridges and derailing trains and doing these different kinds acts of, it wasn't terror then. It was called espionage. All this espionage was going on and we didn't have half the clampdown we have today when there's nothing going on." And they even landed submarines off the coast Yeah, they did actually and they were sinking our ships up and down the East Coast like there was no tomorrow until they got rid of a moron that was running the Navy Department. But anyway... So here's the crazy thing this same Inspire magazine in which my edition does not contain any of this information says headline Al-Qaeda has also named Australia as a prime target for firebombing

54:25 So somebody from Australia, namely that woman who runs the place called someone in the intelligence group there. Hey put us in your magazine! We need a little attention here... we need some ink. We need some ink and they're targeting us or something yeah you spend some more money the public's catching on to our scam Wow There ya go Meanwhile Talking about knocks on the door The good story only that democracy now covered it the Chamberlain execution in White Plains, New York. I just there's something...I don't want to say this is funny because there's nothing funny about some guy getting shot dead by the police for no good reason but this story is the guy pushes by accident apparently his life lock button

Kenneth Chamberlain, White Plains Police, Life Alert Fatality

Kenneth Chamberlain, an elderly man in White Plains, New York, was killed by police after accidentally triggering his Life Alert medical button. Audio recordings reveal that despite Chamberlain telling the operator he was fine and did not need assistance, police broke down his door, used a Taser on him, and eventually shot him. A grand jury subsequently exonerated the officers involved.

55:17 you know, life alert where you push the button and... Yeah I fall in and can't get up. I'm falling in and can't get up? And so they call a life locker calls the police and they start to go over his place and uh..they start pounding on the door and then well play the Chamberlain & White Plains clip You'll get an idea. White Plains Police Emergency Good morning, sir. I'm attempting to cancel a dispatch for Kenneth Chamberlain at 135 South Lexington. Okay you know we have units on scene right now Yeah he's...we're in line with him on two-way communication He is saying he is not going open the door and is scared that he will bust his door down Right They are gonna make entry anyway Okay so hold on give him chance to come through the door and open it because see?

Are you inside Mr Chamberlain's home?

56:40 They're breaking in my door. They are breaking in my door! Mr Chamberlain, I heard you say they're breaking in your door Are you okay? They're breaking into my door. Mr Chamberlain are you okay? I'm fine Okay, You pressed your medical button that's why the officers are there Can you go to the door and speak to them?

Ain't home till I'm done at 40! I'm gonna say it... I'm fine

57:35 A video camera on the police taser gun recorded the next sequence. You can hear Kenneth Chamberlain say the police have stun guns and shotguns, he then predicted that the police would probably kill him And then they did? Yeah no, they stunned him first and gave a couple of jolts and shot him For good measure Yeah, now the final clip of the cops pounding on the door cursing and it's they call him you know The n-word comes out and they say we're not paying anything that is what do you were coming in? And by the way where was this key They kicked down the door yeah. And then one of the guys apparently went to the back window because I read the reports on This was knocking you know trying to come into the back, and they're all armed with shit They got shit does a guy pushes his life alert button What happens to

58:30 So they bust the door down, tase him a couple of times. And he's just wearing underwear. And then they shoot him! But how come we don't have that sound? They don't have the shooting because I guess it was unhooked. Well, that's lame Whatever the case was they did a grand jury quick- quick grand jury on this and the police were exonerated Wait a minute! It wasn't fine what they did Wait a minute wait a minute wait a minute

59:13 You mean you lead me all up to this and I don't get to hear any volts? I don't get to hear any bzzz, bzzz. I don't hear any gunshot? This is no good! Well, I'm sorry but the gunshot was never recorded. Oh yeah... oh sure, oh sure. Well the guy shot himself let's face it. I dunno. They-I did have the zhut zhut uh clip that i was trying to show. This thing went on forever It wasn't he or they were at the door for an hour Wow But this is an example of the kind of the Kingsguard A guy pushes his button and they come in to say something, he says I'm okay. Well we made all the trouble to come here so were gonna shoot you. Wow! You've like successfully bummed me out this is normally my job

Daniel Chong, DEA Negligence, Taxpayer Lawsuits

Daniel Chong, a student at UC San Diego, was accidentally left in a DEA holding cell for five days without food or water after a drug raid. Chong survived by drinking his own urine and is now suing the government for $20 million. The hosts highlight that such settlements are paid by taxpayers and rarely result in the firing of responsible officials.

59:59 And well, if you wanted my I think a better story since we're going to be talking about these sorts of police excess during the Obama administration is the one...

Well let's say that he sues them for 20 million dollars and let's say they pay twenty million dollars or even ten Who actually pays that money? No, we do. You pay it I pay it nobody gets fired Nobody gives a crap It's just money right out of the taxpayers coffers this is the problem with these government these government officials They don't well whatever we lost did lawsuit not to put some guy in a different office someplace I mean this DEA has got to go The whole war on drugs This is a perfect example what's wrong with it

Is one of those girls No, she was at ABC or CBS during the Tech TV era She used to be an editor and then ran one of Larry Ellison companies for a while Now she starting a new domain .net which will turn into some publication And they run X3 on it Gina tells the story of that she was you know she's one of the better students which is what they like and the CIA literally approached her and asked if she was going to be a journalist, if she could work for them. They would place her in a good publication like The Washington Post

1:04:00 And they would contact her every so often because she wanted to know what this is all about. They would contact her every so often for just for her to use a phrase or for her to write a story about something. Oh, really? Wow! Just every so often it wouldn't be like you know having to go to Langley and work out of the cubicle. I get it. And that was that. You get good money, I don't know why you never did get the money.

FBI Wiretap Legislation, CNET Scoop, CISPA Distraction

CNET reports that the FBI is drafting legislation to require social networking sites and communication providers to alter their code to be "wiretap friendly." The hosts suspect the story may be a distraction from the passage of CISPA in the Senate. They also note FBI Director Robert Mueller's frequent visits to Facebook headquarters.

fbi· wiretap· cnet· cispa· robert mueller

1:04:41 to what is it called? Recruit. Recruits by well so the story that started at CNET and this immediately makes me think that this is happening right now I'm sure you... By the way, by the way the agency has said they used to do this and they stopped. You're right So the FBI's news a big story everyone's talking about it headline we need wire tap ready websites And so here's the two relevant paragraphs from this scene, which as far as I can tell originated with CNET. The FBI's General Counsel Office has drafted a proposed law that the Bureau claims is the best solution colon requiring that social networking websites and providers of voiceover IP instant messaging and web email alter their code to ensure their products are wire tap friendly. And they even have a quote

1:05:36 If you create a service, product or app that allows the user to communicate You get the privilege of adding that extra coding An industry representative who has reviewed the FBI's draft legislation told CNET Privilege? Yes. The requirements apply only if a threshold of a certain number of users is exceeded according to a second industry representative briefed on it So this to me screams bullcrap You know, because there's no documentation. The FBI hasn't released anything. The CNET is portraying this as a huge scoop and I can only think maybe it's meant to divert our attention from CISPA passing the Senate? It doesn't ring true to me and it sounds exactly like this Gina Smith story. Hey you know write this

1:06:25 What do you think? Oh well, that's interesting. I never thought of it we should be looking at all the stories like that Well i mean we look at Woodward stuff like that Yeah but when I read a story like this I want the document You know and there is no document It's only just industry insiders that have spoken to see... Well where is this document come on people This is the internet Post this thing already Put it on uh what is that bucket thing That dump thing what is it called Dropbox. Pastebin, whatever just put it in. Pastebin. Pastebin! Put it out there. I can't dream up a bunch of names for speeches start paste bin now on the other hand we know that Mueller or Mueller the director of the FBI walks around this Facebook offices all the time

1:07:09 And we know that because it was in the Time Magazine article where he just sticks his head around the door, says hey Zuck how you doing? I was in the building anyway. Whoops! Just hanging out just me director of the FBI nothing to see here. I find that peculiar yeah well so you know to me... It's a big web story. I'm surprised you haven't been all over this You haven't. I haven't been all over it because i don't know, you can't follow everything for god's sake. Because you're too involved in other things. I'm too busy listening to TV and watching C-SPAN. Yeah watching C-SPAN now I understand So what do you think? It is bogative to begin with because what's the... All you have to do is run any sort of web copier or black widow

1:08:01 these crawlers on almost any website and you can extract everything that's on the website except some of the hidden code but for the most part, you're not going to do that with this product either. And you could just pull down everything without... Well at best, so what they are saying is... What would this do extra? I think it's just cooperation which sounds exactly like CISPA. CISPA is cooperation So maybe this is just a... I don't know. It sounds to me like they're trying to distract attention from CISPA. Yeah, we went over and asked Curry to put the code in yeah he's willing to play ball. He's playing ball! Okay, he's on the right list We won't worry about him let's go to the next guy Exactly that's what it's gonna be. Yeah you're just gonna play ball And that brings- Because I don't see that they can't do this already That brings me to that Claire Perry report from Gitmo Nation East

CHAPTER 21 / 46 Discussion

UK Child Protection Inquiry, Religious Lobbying, Virgin Media

An "independent" parliamentary inquiry into online child protection in the UK, led by Claire Perry, was revealed to be sponsored by Premier Christian Media and other religious lobbying groups. The hosts argue the inquiry is rigged to promote an anti-pornography agenda, which has already influenced Virgin Media to begin blocking BitTorrent traffic.

claire perry· virgin media· child protection· religious lobbying· parliament

1:08:56 I didn't realize this until i read the report. I love reading the reports, that's what I do so you don't have to not even you John C. Dvorak I don't bother anymore because you're going to go over with a fine tooth comb because you have some sort of sickness. It's mold poisoning, I tell ya! So this is the independent parliamentary inquiry into online child protection This is what now Virgin Media has already complied with You played the clip last week where they shut down BitTorrent but of course the whole thing was about porn it was like horrible porn so I'm reading through this document and at the very end It says this independent report was sponsored by Premier Christian Media and in partnership with Safer Media for a safer society. These are religious lobbying groups who sponsored this report!

1:09:50 Really? It's not like Parliament said, we need a report about this. We need an independent parliamentary inquiry they got 60 members of parliament together and these guys sponsored it! What does sponsoring mean do they pay them money to come in overtime? Yes yeah they pay the party of course they do They make donations to the party but these are anti-porn religious freaks I'm just paraphrasing, you know. You can believe whatever you want but... Yeah they're against pornography and they're the ones that- This is not an inquiry that's independent! This thing is completely rigged!!

1:10:27 Hmm, it's a very interesting report is it any good. It's worth reading Because now that you know until you I mean when you get to the end so with the knowledge up front that it's sponsored by paid for by these Christian groups then it's much more fun to read it like okay Now I get why they're saying this that makes sense whereas obviously porn is good. That's what the Internet is for hmm Interesting. Mm-hmm we're talking about religious I noticed that Bill Maher, oh I've stopped watching him well I tend to stop watching him too but it was interesting he committed suicide what? Well in a funny way by attacking the Mormon Church Oh really like really attacking them I mean to the point where uh...I don't know who you know who he thinks is kidding but

CHAPTER 22 / 46 Discussion

Bill Maher, Mormon Church, Mitt Romney Charity

Comedian Bill Maher is criticized for his aggressive attacks on the Mormon Church, which he labeled a "cult" while discussing Mitt Romney's charitable giving. The hosts suggest Maher's rhetoric is intended to benefit the Obama campaign but predict it may lead to his eventual removal from the air due to the political power of the Mormon organization.

bill maher· mormonism· mitt romney· prop 8· hbo

1:11:25 The Mormon Church is the one that defeated Prop 8. They've apparently involved in a lot of political stuff that is powerful, so it's not a group that you want to... I don't have anything against the Mormons personally But if I did, I'd be very circumspect because they have... Harry Reid is a Mormon for example. Well wait a minute isn't this just the part of making Mormons look crazy to make Mitt Romney look crazy? Yeah to make Obama look good and you want to do that if your political operative like Bill Maher is an Obamabot but I think he went overboard here and I would predict putting it in the red book that he will not

1:12:05 By this time next year, he will not be on the air. Last Friday's show we're getting into a pissing match with the internet but the usual suspects are bitching that I was wrong and saying that Mitt Romney's charitable giving doesn't count because it all goes to his cult. I'm sorry i meant to say his ridiculous church But religion? Cult? Truth is there's no real definition of which is which It's more like if the shoe fits I personally define a cult as any religion with fewer followers than Snooki has on Twitter. Also, Mormonism is secretive and that's another trait i associate with cults Catholics own they're crazy it's right on the table Mormons are more like Fight Club In any event It doesn't matter and I'm very sorry if I called your horseshit bullshit

1:13:07 The real issue is, when Mitt Romney gets a deduction for giving to charity the rest of us taxpayers have to cover the loss. Oh okay great Well, it wasn't funny and didn't have me laugh. It wasn't funny at all No I was not laughing about that one And I think uh...I think that may be a career killer Uh okay you put that in the book i don't know I don't know I'm just saying You watch its not going to be like something happens real quick It'll be slow death Meanwhile I was watching always keeping an eye out for what Warren Buffet is doing

CHAPTER 23 / 46 Discussion

Warren Buffett, Charlie Munger, Prostate Cancer, Gold

At the Berkshire Hathaway shareholders meeting, Warren Buffett announced he has early-stage prostate cancer. His partner, 88-year-old Charlie Munger, dismissed the news as a "non-event," stating he refuses PSA tests to avoid "dumb" medical interventions. Munger also made controversial remarks comparing buying gold to Jewish families sewing jewelry into garments in 1939 Vienna.

warren buffett· charlie munger· berkshire hathaway· prostate cancer· gold

1:13:47 And Warren Buffett, Berkshire Hathaway I should say is a very conservative investor. He only invests in things that he knows are going to work like machines that kill chickens and railroads and his number one lieutenant is a guy named Charlie Munger Charlie Munger is 88 years old and it was kind of interesting because up front and center at the Berkshire Hathaway Shareholders meeting which is like you want to talk about a cult. That's real cult who's in the front row? Charlie Rose Bono Ashton Kutcher, I mean usual suspect the usual investor well bono Of course the huge investor In all things Kleiner Perkins

1:14:30 And so the big news at this year's event, Warren Buffett says you know what I have initial stage prostate cancer. So he goes on CNBC and the girl there asks him so wow what does this mean? His answer was quite surprising to me. What is different in the last couple of months is that Warren has come out with his news about the prostate cancer. What was your reaction when he told you Well, I regard it as a total non-event. I would bet a lot of money that I have more than he does. I don't even allow him to check for it Why? I think its likely to cause him do a dumb thing So when my doctor puts down PSA test, I just cross out How interesting is that? What was that all about? Who was that she interviewed? Charlie Munger! That's the number two guy at Berkshire Hathaway

1:15:27 And he's 88, he looks great by the way. He doesn't look almost 90 and uh... you know I don't do tests it'll make me do something stupid what i read between the lines Oh wait let me try to deconstruct what your thinking because of the basis of this thought is these fake uh... prostate cancer test no that fake test for the uh... for the cervicals HPV It's a fake test essentially. I mean it is a machine that tests but you know the thing is pretty, doesn't really...it can't nail it. It's bogus test. It just guess. The machine is guessing machine. That not exactly what I was thinking. Let me finish. So Munger being one of these massive investors

1:16:15 who probably has access to information that we'll never have access to in a million years knows it's bullcrap. Exactly! He even says, I bet I have more cancer than Warren does. I just don't want to know I just found that a complete, well he said one other thing and this was the thing that I was like whoa. Okay when you're almost 90 I guess you can say whatever you want As an investor though Einhorn used this whole thesis that he had The idea that too much of a good thing is bad thing to say in normal situation like this He would be buying stocks selling bonds and selling gold but because he doesn't trust the Fed he says he's buying gold right now Is that a thesis that makes sense? Well not to me

1:17:01 I think gold is a great thing to sew into your garments if you're Jewish family in Vienna in 1939. Wow! Okay, and then what else? Civilized people don't buy gold. There you go, civilized people don't buy gold I'm with him Whenever those guys say A, i'm going B That's all I know Yeah well this guy is uh... This guy sounds like he's a little too in the know I was like, wow. Okay? Okay this is good my goodness if you're a Jew in Austria 1930s sew it into your pockets otherwise if you're in the civilized people don't buy gold and I got no prostate cancer these elites man there's just a whole they had lived in a whole different world not the world you and I live in my friend apparently not and then I know they haven't been over to

Hillary Clinton, Anti-Bullying Campaign, Free Speech

Hillary Clinton released a video message taking a stand against bullying and promoting tolerance and diversity. The hosts interpret the anti-bullying movement as a potential threat to free speech, suggesting that "bullying" is being redefined to include verbal insults and name-calling that were traditionally ignored under the "sticks and stones" philosophy.

1:18:04 And then it's time for our... It's Clippity-Clop! The message is clear. Yo, Clippity-Clop! So Lucifer Clippity-Clop on her little video podcast there which you can find at video dot state dot gov which I look at religiously She all of a sudden out of the blue and I am is it anti-bullying month or something? I couldn't find any executive. I couldn't find any executive orders. I couldn't find any Proclamations, but this is her sitting in your office Or wherever she does those videos looks more like a hotel room and It's just interesting travel the world. I try to meet with people to talk about what's happening in their communities and countries and

1:18:51 And one of the things I see wherever I go is that communities that foster tolerance and accept diversity tend to be more prosperous, successful and better places to live. Strong societies draw strength from the talents of women, people with disabilities religious minorities LGBT people those of diverse racial and ethnic backgrounds. That's as true in the United States as it is everywhere else Today, across North America students and teachers are coming together to take a stand against bullying. Building communities of tolerance is something every person can contribute to in your own school or workplace or where you worship or even in the streets of your own community If you see someone being bullied please speak up

1:19:43 Oh, wait a minute. You mean like this Lucifer? So I mean that is the land of unconfirmed yes we came we saw he died Yeah Hello, I'm raising my hand I see someone bullying and if you're being bullied Please reach out to a teacher or hotline or a friend now watch her go into personal mode Know that you are not alone. Help is available and we all want you to be able to just persist through this terrible experience for you And, you know what? If you're the bully... if your bullying someone else Send your resume Please take a hard look at your actions and the pain you cause

1:20:29 I don't think you want to keep doing that. Whoa! I don't think you want to keep doing that, because i will rip your head off, you shit Because whether it's physical emotional or social bullying is wrong and we can all contribute To more tolerant supportive environments and to stamping out bullying wherever It happens Let's really all commit ourselves to working together to do that Okay So I'm like, wow this is so weird. That was weird! Well it fits in with something else that i found. Ah okay. Yeah of course Now its less weird? Yeah now it gets a lot more understandable. So im uh... Like wow you know this is uh... now my stance on this is that these anti-bullying laws are um... in effect being brought in to stop your free speech and you're not allowed to say hey you ugly shit

Common Sense Media, Digital Harassment, Chelsea Clinton

Common Sense Media, a 501(c)(4) organization with Chelsea Clinton on its board, is promoting the concept of "digital harassment" among teens. The hosts examine the organization's high executive salaries and its role as a promotional arm for the movie industry, specifically targeting children with reviews and contests for films like "The Hunger Games."

1:21:28 You can't say that. When I was a kid, and I think other listeners will remember this...

1:26:59 What content? This, this crap that they put on Time Warner television. But what is it?! So here's two videos from the current lineup you've got the whole thing about bullying which I didn't even pull the clip then there's a digital harassment which i think is more interesting because that's going to be in new meme but then listen at this from their YouTube channel Are the odds in your favor enter the common sense media review contest and find out did you love The Hunger Games movie This is a promo This whole organization is set up to promote movies to kids.

And chances are your teens or someone they know has also sent a nude or revealing photo to a friend. Sexting? Sexy texting seriously what era are you from well you two were playing house

1:30:07 Hook and I were trading super hot texts. Sexting has quickly become a part of teen romance one in five teens admit they've sent nude or semi-nude pictures of themselves to others through their cell phones and computers The problem is that in this 24-7 digital world where anything can be copied, sent and posted a private photo can quickly become global. This is also about shutting down access to your kids...inner access to your kids. This is meant to freak parents out Yeah so they don't want kids seeing it So the kids wouldn't say that's bullcrap And the emotional and legal consequences Besides that its only my tits

1:30:51 It would be devastating for both the sender and recipient. Devastating! So what's behind this growing phenomenon? Oh, what's behind the growing phenomenon... Who do you think is the boogie man in this one? I think that's gonna be Romney. He just thinks it's okay to sex or ya know send naked pictures of themselves Because it's not really a big thing. A lot of times I don't think we actually think that it's sexting because we're just like flirting and it's just on text message Teens will usually sexed as a joke sometimes is the token of affection. Ugh, I'm too bored. I'm bored already Anyway this is a promotional arm of the movie industry And they have chosen a very interesting construction

1:31:33 so they do not have to reveal their donors and of the eight million dollars. Let me guess who the donors are, Paramount? Disney? We can't know. Universal Sony? We can't know here it's grants gifts contributions and membership fees in 2010 5.5 million but then they have where is it There's another four million, and we don't know where it came from. They don't have to fill it in because of the construction they've chosen so you don't have...so it's just not in there. Yeah that's what I'm saying! I'm telling who it is. Bogative! Universal? So they're pulling out on this bullying meme Go to page three

1:32:23 I think it's page three, is it? Yeah. Page three and you can see one of the donors got a they have a couple of uh donors logos almost logos there. Page three of what? Of the videos oh really tons of these videos yeah I know There's another page Oh page 3 there we go okay So you got YouTube, obviously the Googlers are giving them money. No doubt in my mind How to upload videos to YouTube is like a video on following instructions Then there's avatars down at the bottom That's gotta be some characters and something But I will point out that their Form 990 is nowhere to be found on their own website They don't actually post that The whole thing just... but Chelsea Clinton? Come on

1:33:11 Yeah, no that's the giveaway. Just follow the Clintons! That's all you gotta do. It's all about bullying. I'll give you that as a website find of the day. Okay thank you. We don't have a jingle for it sorry. No we don't. Our ten beliefs...we believe in media sanity not censorship There's the first one you can go with. Yeah, that's what we believe in. They're also a real Agenda 21 outfit they got a lot about climate and saving the world and all this stuff no wonder they're all over The Hunger Games And while were on that topic we might as well roll out a little bit of... Not just the last episode John are we talking about

Peruvian Pelican Deaths, American Bird Conservancy, Wind Energy

Reports from Peru indicate the deaths of 1,200 pelicans and 900 dolphins along the coastline. Meanwhile, the American Bird Conservancy (ABC) has launched a Google Earth map highlighting areas where wind energy development could harm bird populations. The hosts question the transparency of ABC's funding and the validity of the reported animal die-offs.

peru· pelicans· dolphins· american bird conservancy· wind energy

1:34:00 a total lack of birds killed by windmills. Yeah, the pile of pelicans. The pile of pelicans! So let me... first of all you know there are did we talk about the pelicans that are dying? No but I have a clip Where's your clip? Where is it? Let me see. Where are the pelicans dying here, I'm sure i left it... uhhhh.... I hope I didn't edit it out. Weird reported bird deaths? Yeah that's it hit it! The coxes of over a hundred pelicans have been removed by workers near the town of Puerto Eten on the northern coast of Peru

1:34:41 During the past two months around 1,200 pelicans and 900 dolphins amongst other animals are reported to have died along the coastline. An investigation into the deaths will be carried out by Peruvian officials." There you go in Peru exactly so I see this little article on The New York Times who of course... Maybe somebody's reading our headlines on the show and then using it as code yes And so the Pelicans we must kill the pelican. So the New York Times heard us talking about actually not that it's ABC, The American Bird. What is their name? Yeah, American bird conservancy

1:35:19 So I see this article in New York Times, using Google Earth as a platform the American Bird Conservancy creates an interactive web-based map that highlights more than 2,000 places in the United States where birds are likely to be particularly vulnerable to impacts from wind energy development. So they sent out a press release ABC and indeed they've created a Google Map where windmills might kill birds. They don't actually say they kill birds, but they do say that a recent study published in the 2011 online peer-reviewed Journal of Public Library of Science indicates there's approximately three and a half gigawatts of wind potential on already disturbed lands in the United States more than ten times the Department of Energy's national goal for wind power generation by 2030

1:36:18 So they're saying stop the windmills. Like who is this outfit? Well their total revenue was 8.4 million dollars in 2010, two million... You can do one of these things rather than this show What yeah we did these phony baloney operations that's beautiful and again one of these 501 C 4 companies where they do not have to report their donors so gifts grants contributions eight point three nine four million dollars Lobbying, they spent $566,000. And by the way I like birds, not against birds but where does all this money go? Because they do show where their money goes to it's all to South America! They send here North America thirty thousand dollars grants recipients in the region South America two million dollars 2 million dollar... Wow that is interesting it makes me now wonder about did you hear the thing when they showed this report was on the BBC they showed two dead pelicans

1:37:18 And one of them looked like they'd been dead for a while and they were just putting him in some bin. And they showed no dead dolphins, even though there's supposed to be 100 dead dolphins so this whole thing could be completely bogus Could be I mean i didn't see 100 dead pelicans, I didn't see 100 dead dolphins Show me the pelicans! Where are they? I mean when we have an oil spill you have people washing hundreds of ducks and you can see the ducks So what's up? I don't know Something and then of course we have the Rio plus 20 coming up in our biodiversity corner here and What's the douchebags name push Kari the head of the IPCC the interplanetary panel on? Climate change. Yeah, so they have a new report out which I have not been able to get through 594 pages Sorry

This is trust org Here's quotes from the that douche with the beard I think global society has to realize that we you should do it in like an Indian accent But I have no patience for that Has to realize we are affecting the climate of this plant and this is the only planet We have he said in Bangkok while was living up with the hookers in Patpong What is clear is that the average temperatures are going to rise in many parts of the world. Many scientists believe that at current rates of emissions, the planet is headed towards at least 3½°C rise in average temperature this century and now the words that matter it is virtually certain

1:38:54 that increases in the frequency and magnitude of warm daily temperature extremes will occur in the 21st century on global scale. It is very likely that the length, frequency and or intensity of heat waves will increase. Changing weather patterns are also expected to bring more extreme weather including worsening droughts and floods." So when you use words like virtually certain and very likely it doesn't sound very scientific It's not scientific. We've always had floods, we've always had extreme temperatures, we've always had droughts this has been going on since I was a little kid now before then you could read the literature from the 1700s and there was always these issues but because they're so extreme and nobody seems to remember from one year to the next i still have people living around me in California who

1:39:47 seem to forget every single year that June and July are cold in the Bay Area. They're very cold! Oh, I don't remember it ever being this cold! Yeah no it's always been cold. June gloom in Los Angeles is what we call it. So you end up with a bunch of people that are very easily swayed by oh it's worse than ever yeah but nothing changes the same as always and so I am very excited to read this report again 594 pages because I'll just read you from the index and i'll be doing this for Thursday show it, unless there's nothing in it but these things got to... This has gotta be an agenda 21 thing. Because the name of this report is Managing The Risks Of Extreme Events And Disasters To Advance Climate Change Adaption Let me read that again. Managing The Risks Of Extreme Events & Disasters

1:40:43 to advance climate change adaptation. Wow! So it's almost like a playbook. Managing them, I mean... Here is what we're going to do We are going to have these normal disasters happen all the time here when we're gonna manage them in other words you're gonna use them manage use them as a methodology to push our climate change agenda so whatever scam to make money is involved which is what this is really about if anybody denies that of whatever said whether trading carbon credits or creating bogus markets or selling something

1:41:20 This is what we're gonna do. This is our this is the game plan that Is that what you think? That's exactly what it sounds like to me Yeah, I mean its a game plan It's not managing doesn't publish it because you're gonna read it and you'll get people be able to see stuff way in advance This will give us a little bit of six by donors. There's no agenda imagine all the people who could do that oh yeah, they'd be fine Reading the report Six months in advance, assuming that we get donations for the next six months. Alex Gregor Mountain View California We want to thank him for sending in $100 and 79 cents did he sent us an email? Alex Gregor? I'll have to look...I'll look in a minute

Weekly Hooker Report, Dominique Strauss-Kahn, Secret Service Scandal

The "Weekly Hooker Report" covers new rape allegations against Dominique Strauss-Kahn involving a 2010 party in Washington D.C. Additionally, Dania Londen Noce Suarez, the Colombian woman at the center of the Secret Service prostitution scandal, gave interviews claiming the agents were "fools" and that the dispute began over a refused $800 payment.

dominique strauss-kahn· dania londen noce suarez· secret service· colombia· prostitution

2:03:13 Yes, well there is a new rape allegation against the former head of the International Monetary Fund Dominique Strauss-Kahn is currently caught up in a prostitution scandal in France But that investigation has now led police to another woman who says she was working as a prostitute when she was gang raped at a Strauss-Kahn sex party at a Washington DC hotel back in 2010. Strauss Kahn was arrested last year after New York City hotel maid accused him of raping her those charges were dropped but she is now suing him in civil court And the Colombian prostitute at the center of this secret service scandal is opening up about what happened. Dania Londen Noce Suarez spoke at a Colombian radio station and she claims that agent owed her 800 bucks after the night with her, she called all agents fools for not resolving the matter by giving her money

2:04:06 And that is our weekly hooker report. Wait, I have a late entry to our weekly hooker report as the Colombian prostitute known as Miss Suarez has been interviewed regularly now in Colombia and I have a couple of quotes from her if you would like to hear. Of course she only speaks Colombian but i have the quotes. Miss Suarez said quote they were a bunch of fools They are responsible for Obama's security and they still let this happen. I could have done a thousand other things if i'd wanted to, I could have gone through all his documents his wallet, his suitcase but here is the best part Ms Suarez told the Caracol News in Cartagena that she called the police after the Secret Service agent with whom she spent the night refused to pay her $800 he had promised Here's the quote Let's go bitch! I'm not going to pay you

2:05:00 I love that. Hey bitch, let's go bitch! I'm not gonna pay you by the way it was only $27 not 30 not 37 27 dollars that he paid for a cab That was what it was for so and that wraps up our weekly hooker report God we need a jingle for that don't we? It's a beauty yeah be great jingles somebody could have some fun with that one But then we could also have our weekly zombie report Oh, yeah. Hundreds of zombies have taken over the streets of Prague for the annual zombie walk through the Czech capital people from all over the country dressed up as The Waking Dead with fake blood and painted white faces. The zombies walking through the city attracting local locals and tourists along the way it's the fifth year running that the procession has taken place I actually support this when there's screaming going on i think that would be good a screaming background

Prague Zombie Walk, Montreal Student Protests, Public Nudity

Prague held its fifth annual "Zombie Walk," which organizers describe as a satirical commentary on the "soulless" mechanical nature of modern life. In Montreal, students protesting tuition hikes have begun holding nightly marches while naked or wearing only diapers, a tactic the hosts contrast with the likely police response to such behavior in the United States.

prague· zombie walk· montreal· quebec· student protests

2:05:55 So they show the... You support this? Yes I do because they have a website, zombiewalk.cz or CZ if you're in America and they actually explain what it's all about here I'm gonna have the Google translate so I guess that's kind of good why we do it So this is the Google Translate version, which is interesting to read always. Deliberately sometimes look around you as you walk down the street How many people you pass every day in the crowd? We can notice many features in common Their views are extinct and living barely enough energy that the body is forced to perform mechanical tasks learned To work shopping home television and sleep a similar disease affects a part of today's teenagers The world is only too smurfs knell

2:06:47 3D dimension of computer games. Heads have dealt only essential physical functions and need for passive Zabvyavy Vidmali, perhaps we resemblance between zombie movies and those who roam the streets like a body without a soul. Maybe so! Nevertheless we think with enough exaggeration between these individuals and zombies difference of few degrees Celsius of body temperature in case of zombie walks several layers of makeup And if anyone sees this connection as well We've achieved zombie walk result in which we dare to hope let's meet the extraordinary reality So the idea, if I can read through the translation. Oh yeah! It's kind of good like this is what you're saying... You're trying to make a point? Yeah it's a good point i like it. Yeah you guys are all zombies and let's celebrate with uh your idiocy by showing you what you look like walking around and they're you know it's kind of a satire.

2:07:43 Why don't we have zombie walks here? I think they could catch on. Yeah, well we do have streaking they've heard my plea Oh it would do was there some streakers well that you become a sexual offender when you're streaming. That's the problem Well in Montreal The students up in actually Quebec and this is from one of our producers he sent in the link and the link is of course in French The government and student unions have been butting heads for months now, and now the students are holding nightly marches in Montreal. And they're all walking around naked! It's awesome! The video is great. They got like... The video is great? Yeah, and they're not ugly you know some of them are hotties. All the girls got their boobs hanging out they're walking around in diapers it's crazy I tell ya these guys- it's great can you imagine that happening in America You'd be tased within three seconds Be tased and then shot yeah you pedo bear you can't do that That's no good

Chen Guangcheng, Hillary Clinton China Visit, Timmy Geithner

Blind Chinese activist Chen Guangcheng sought asylum at the U.S. Embassy in Beijing just before Hillary Clinton's arrival. The hosts suggest the timing was orchestrated by China to embarrass the U.S. and "show Hillary who's boss." Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner was also noted for his prominent presence during the high-level diplomatic meetings.

chen guangcheng· hillary clinton· beijing· timothy geithner· human rights

2:08:46 No, I thought that was uh... I thought that was outstanding. Very proud of our Canadian brethren and sister up there That's good! That is very good So we wanted to talk a little bit about this minute at least about the blind dissident in China trying to figure out what that's all about Have you thought about this much? The guy busted into the US embassy asked for asylum This is a famed Chang, I think Chang is his name his... He didn't understand the situation. Yeah, that's it and he wanted asylum and they said well we're gonna do a deal you know you guys are going back to China the whole thing was done around Hillary's visit almost it was timed beautifully yeah it was kind of time so we wouldn't pay attention what she was saying It was done by the Chinese

2:09:36 They set the guy, because the guy's always been under house... First he was arrested and it was in jail for four years. Essentially for busting a bunch of corrupt politicians that were forced doing forced sterilizations in his part of China and they weren't you know they were getting embarrassed by the party Found the guy guilty of blocking traffic or something some crazy Charges that are pretty dumb and they threw him in jail for four years And then after they released them they kept him under house arrest under lock and key, but by some wild coincidence He got away and made his way to Beijing To be there a day before Hillary showed up

2:10:15 Yeah, interesting how that works isn't it? Now I'm my thinking at first. I was thinking well It's just got something to do with that MI6 guy that was murdered now. That's probably not it. I think its China doing this to purposely embarrass the United States government, make him lose face because within this report which I have here from the BBC there is one face loss incident that takes place and you'll hear it when he does the report. Our assistant ambassador they let the guy go heres a story they let the guy go and then locked him up again he says hey can't do that without assurances so our assistant ambassador

2:10:55 tried to visit him, to give him some gifts that people have collected for and some cell phones and a bunch of thugs kept the guy from going in and then told him to get out of there, and he had to leave the things on the porch. It was totally humiliating And I think this was done to send a message To Hillary, and I'm not sure what the messages that you know quit messing around with us because you're screwing us in Africa But play this thing The blind lawyer is one of China's most famous activists detained for seven years beaten savagely by Communist Party officials for exposing human rights abuses From the hospital last night, Mr Chen made a dramatic call to US congressman. Under guard once again and afraid for his family he appealed for help He said China had broken its promise to guarantee his freedom and safety And he wanted to go to America The U.S Deputy Ambassador today had the humiliation of being prevented from seeing Mr Chen Gifts and mobile phones he had for him were left on the doorstep

2:11:59 The way barred by plainclothes thugs. He then drove everyone out. The American Embassy doctor and a translator were the only people allowed in As they visited, China announced Mr. Chen could like any citizen apply to go abroad if he wanted Across town Henry Clinton was meeting China's leaders to find ways the world established superpower and its rising one can work together whether tackling nuclear programs of North Korea and Iran or conflicts in Sudan and Syria What might make that easier news a US university has offered Mr. Chen a law fellowship

2:12:39 Over the course of the day, progress has been made to help him have the future that he wants and we will be staying in touch with him. So the one thing that was good to me this is really all about was to show Hillary who's boss I would agree with that. Honestly, I was too...I was feeling so poorly that I just like oh! I just couldn't deal with it all but all i know is that that was the only news what she actually had to say you saw no clips of there's just no information do you even know what she said? What she was talking about? You know and then I agree with that and here's the weird part does not reported but every time did she came into this to meet with a Chinese guy who was accompanying her

2:13:32 Not that to me with the Chinese guy, I'm talking about meet with the top Chinese officials But who was accompanying her following around everywhere she went? Kuma? Timmy. Oh little Timmy I found that very weird. He was following her wherever she went, she sat down at the stage with the Chinese guy and Timmy was sitting on a big chair right next to her You know what his office number is? Someone sent me this At uh... The Federal Reserve Everyone has a number on their office Yeah 3-3-3-0 No! Yeah Yeah Wow Yeah, yeah I know wow How wow is that

Russia-Japan Gas Pipeline, Sakhalin Island, KAL 007

Russia and Japan are in talks to build a natural gas pipeline from Sakhalin Island to Japan. The island has historically been a point of conflict, including the 1983 shooting down of Korean Air Flight 007. Japan's shutdown of its nuclear reactors has created a massive demand for natural gas imports.

2:14:16 Well that's um you know what there is a video on videos.state.gov I think i'll take a look at it but It'll have to be tomorrow because I'm just I don't think this topic we need to follow anymore Because it just seems to me to be just sort of uh Just some, you know posturing I think it's bullcrap Bogative okay In pipeline news Some interesting things taking place Russia and Japan, and this is historically interesting. And let's see if you remember this are now in talks to build a gas pipeline which will go from Russia to the Sakhalin Island

2:15:05 Now do you know about the Sakhalin Island? No, but I'm gonna find out. Well the Sakhalin Island has always been a major bone of contention between the Russians and the Japanese and this if you look at that if you consult The Book Of Knowledge this goes way way back How do you spell it? Sierra Alpha Kilo Hotel Alpha Lima India November Essentially, the last time that these guys fought over these islands where there was a huge liquid natural gas plant processing plant was after the Second World War.

2:15:47 And the Soviets essentially took over and they were supposed to give it back but they never did, and it keeps coming up. And you remember in 83 Korean Air Flight 007 which was shot down? That happened over these islands because they thought that they were encroaching on their sovereign airspace So now all of a sudden the Russians and the Japanese, and of course we know that... We desperately want to get gas to the Japanese because they need it. They've shut down their last nuclear reactor Even though they have tons of gas underneath Tokyo itself which of course they can't do much with Imagine fracking there

Drone Strikes, North Waziristan, Pipeline Protection

A U.S. drone strike in North Waziristan killed eight suspected militants. The hosts argue that drone operations in Pakistan and the continued military presence in Afghanistan are primarily intended to protect future pipeline routes and poppy fields rather than to combat Al Qaeda.

drone strike· north waziristan· pakistan· pipelines· poppy fields

2:16:24 Everyone's like just pining, you know we're trying to send stuff off of our Gulf Coast. Everyone is trying to get the gas to Japan because that's going to be a bonanza but interesting that this is happening with Sakhalin Island and it's just something to keep our eye on Then we had a drone strike I love the way The New York Times reports on this New York Times You guys are crap okay? Your total bullcrap your shills for the ministry of truth I mean, just how they report. You okay? What are you doing? Yeah it's just a shot through the window. Keep going Did you shoot someone? No An American drone fired a volley of missiles into a house close to the Afghan border on Saturday killing eight suspected militants and indicating US resolved to continue with the attacks despite renewed Pakistani opposition Officials said Where was this strike? Well would you believe it was North Waziristan

2:17:24 Yeah, and of course so Balochistan I guess is right in the red book. That's right Did it is it did we put that in a book didn't we? Balochistan Waziristan So this is pipeline protection people yeah, this is pipeline protection So Afghanistan, we're done. We'll keep our guys in until 2024 to make sure no one messes with the pipeline. Balochistan I guess it goes... And the poppies? ...and the poppies. Guess those guy were a pushover. I did get a letter from one of our listeners by the way who said he has a friend in Afghanistan and he was bitching to him because all they were doing was protecting the poppy fields Oh yeah! And so Waziristan that is exactly where the pipeline goes through

Anti-Nicotine Vaccine, Pharmaceutical Indemnification, Nanoparticles

A new "anti-nicotine vaccine" uses nanoparticles to trigger an immune response against the chemical. The hosts point out that labeling the product a "vaccine" provides pharmaceutical companies with legal indemnification from the U.S. government, protecting them from lawsuits related to side effects.

nicotine vaccine· pharmaceuticals· nanoparticles· immune response· lawsuits

2:18:07 As predicted. And now, oh we have militants it's uh I'm sorry it's Al Qaeda insurgency and we're just droning people. Once the word gets out that you're gonna get droned if you start messing with the pipelines I think that'll protect...it's a form of protection That's good job We're doing well and then I read something that I thought I would just bring up because we talk a lot about fracking And you know, if you relate this to vaccines as an example. If you create a vaccine and as long as you call it a vaccine I think you're okay. We have a new... I have it in the show notes actually we have this anti-nicotine vaccine so that you won't want to smoke. It's not a vaccine! Well they actually say in that report

2:19:02 Although nicotine is not a virus, the nanoparticles target the chemicals as if it were by initiating an immune response. This is the trick see this is how they get... This is bogative! Well the reason why they do it is because then they can't get sued because The American government has indemnified all pharmaceutical companies from being sued over anything that happens to you due to a vaccine we know this So that's nice. I like it so good thinking, so it turns out... That language is important and by the way have gotten a lot of emails from doctors saying hey man you know what your talking about? You're full of crap man! It is vaccine because it works on the nanoparticles with it okay fine so it works like an immune thing Good so they target the immune response so you can call it a vaccine great so we cant sue you

CHAPTER 40 / 46 Discussion

Halliburton Loophole, Fracking, Safe Drinking Water Act

The "Halliburton Loophole," established during Dick Cheney's vice presidency, exempts hydraulic fracturing from EPA supervision under the Safe Drinking Water Act. This allows the oil and gas industry to inject hazardous materials near drinking water supplies. The hosts note that the Obama administration has continued to support and expand fracking despite these environmental risks.

halliburton loophole· fracking· dick cheney· epa· safe drinking water act

2:20:00 But I found out something about fracking which is along the same lines, which is called the Halliburton loophole. Have you ever heard of this? Yeah, I think so this has to do with water Yes! So first of all, fracking which is if you hear about shale gas getting gas from shale they do that through fracking. And the reason of course we can do that now is because there's almost enough money to do it but they really got to raise the price of natural gas in order to make it profitable but they'll get there The real reason for the recent explosion, this is from William Engdahl, Professor Engdahl. The real reason for the recent explosion of fracking in the United States is the passage of legislation in 2005 by US Congress that exempts the oil industry's hydraulic fracking activity from regulatory supervision by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency under the Safe Drinking Water Act

2:21:00 The oil and gas industry is the only industry in America that has allowed by the EPA to inject known hazardous materials directly into or adjacent to underground drinking water supplies. It's known as the Halliburton loophole, and of course this was brought in by Dick Cheney when he became vice president so this fracking business It's a bonanza because even if you, look on YouTube just igniting your faucet. Lighting your water on... take a lighter to your faucet and people can actually make the water that comes out of their faucet burn because all these highly dangerous chemicals that are being used for fracking is getting into the water supply but the US government has indemnified the oil and gas industry against this

2:21:50 So you're saying that this is a stance from Cheney being in office and Halliburton loophole? Yep. How long has Obama been in office? Let me think, he's working on his fourth year now? What has he done about this? He's more! More of it! More fracking And he's got that horrible Sheila Jackson or whatever her name is... Sheila Jo... what was her name? Sheila Jackson Lee No, no the head of the EPA. Oh Lisa Jackson. Martha Fred Jackson. Her name is now Fred Jackson. Fred Jackson she's like you know what as good as she? Why didn't she come in there? She such a tough babe!

Psychotropic Drugs, DSM-5 Conflicts, Sleep Disorders

The upcoming DSM-5 manual is criticized for financial conflicts of interest, with 70% of task force members having ties to pharmaceutical companies. The hosts highlight that 83% of contributors to the sleep disorder section have industry links. They also discuss reports claiming that antidepressants are often no more effective than placebos.

psychotropic drugs· dsm-5· american psychiatric association· sleep disorders· placebos

2:22:39 I the bonanza they had with their pharmaceuticals that have gone out of patent and so vaccines is, of course, the new bonanza. Particularly if you can now say well it initiates an immune response therefore it is a vaccine So you can't get sued which means you don't have to do long clinical trials and all this stuff And the BBC is shilling a report from The Lancet

2:23:22 And here's the title, Anti-Psychotic Drugs Made Me Want to Kill Myself. And here is what it is about. So there has been a couple of reports recently that placebos work just as well as these antidepressants And there's some real scientific studies that have been done. There is a, I forget the guys name, there is a doctor who has been pushing this he'll be dead soon enough don't worry and you know they tested it and people received the placebo think wow you know I feel better than actually feel better but this report now saying that over years, over a long length of time that you need to actually be taking the real deal otherwise you could have a relapse into schizophrenia. So they're now using it once again the scientific community to promote psychotropic drugs and not just... It's only good if you take it for a long long time

2:24:23 10 to 15 years. Otherwise you might want to kill yourself again. Yeah, they do their part and then my favorite as we would be damned. We've been talking about the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders known as DSM, DSM-5 is on its way right now and this is the manual that determines and defines what the autistic spectrum disorder is. And all the rest of it. It turned out that being a podcaster means you're clinically insane? You are not...you have ODD! Podcastology So ummm This is uhhhh The

2:25:07 Here on March 13th, PLOS Medicine whoever that is but I like it so now it's an independent group that is good. Examine the financial conflicts of interest of members of the American Psychiatric Association responsible for updating this DSM manual the so-called Bible of psychiatry despite a new APA policy designed to address conflicts of interests Nearly 70% of current DSM-5 task force members have financial relationships with pharmaceutical companies, up from 57 percent from the previous manuals version. But even better 83 percent of current contributors to the psychiatric disorders section and everyone responsible for the sleep disorder section have links to the pharmaceutical industry. Eighty three percent! It's a bonanza

2:26:04 Well, put it in the red book. It's the sleep disorder that's what the new pills will be sleep disorder because that's where all the shills are in Okay Sleep Disorder You got it in the red book? I just put it in I just put the word Sleep Disorder and then put your initials and then highlighting with a pink highlighter Wait a minute let me sign it with the auto pen Hold on Okay Done So, a couple light stories. Before we wrap it up with Gary Johnson's libertarian nomination speech... Funniest story I thought this week was this one best by Punk's customer Does it need to lead in? No. Bringing off the hook. Arrgh! Step on your side Michael Finney is here to explain. This is a nightmare.

Best Buy Facebook Prank, Gay Status Message

A Best Buy customer who returned a faulty cell phone without logging out of his Facebook account had his status updated by an employee to say he was "coming out" as gay. The prank resulted in the customer receiving numerous calls from concerned relatives and friends, highlighting the risks of mobile account security.

2:27:03 first. Rich Dewberry returned his faulty cell phone to Best Buy but forgot to log out of his mobile Facebook account minutes after he left the store a Facebook status message went out from his old phone saying, He is gay. A Best Buy employee must have sent it instantly friends and relatives began calling Just having to explain it, you know certain people that I haven't been in contact with a while. I feel like i shouldn't have to do that. Oh gay! So its... well thats kinda the punchline Gaydar went off They showed the message and says I am gay im coming out The guy sends this to his whole facebook universe

2:27:46 I was thinking, wow. Ah that's great! What a gag! Oh that's fantastic. Millennials will do these things they'll be working at some place and not getting paid enough anyway and they'll pull a gag like this and then get fired say ah screw you didn't want this job anyway And so I think it would more stories like this That's great! I thought it was pretty humorous in some funny sick way By the way did wanna mention something today's New York Times Don't need to run in for it this on the Sunday review. There's a new thing opening up apparently a lot of life coaches

CHAPTER 43 / 46 Discussion

Wantology, Life Coaching, New York Times Report

The New York Times reports on the rise of "Wantologists," a specialized branch of life coaching intended to help people figure out what they want. Catherine Ziegler, a psychologist in San Jose, is cited as a practitioner. The hosts mock the profession as a symptom of a "bonehead" culture where people pay for basic decision-making assistance.

wantology· life coaching· new york times· catherine ziegler· san jose

2:28:24 And I don't know if you ever run into one of these phonies, but a life coach is... You know guys. I actually saw one outside of a restaurant with a guy who was some guy with too much money. I guess he was a dot-com guy made a lot of money so we hired a life coach because he was clueless about how to order from a menu i guess? I don't know and the life coaches out there giving him a pep talk come on! You can do it! You can get in there and you can tell the waitress that the food was cold Whatever so now the life coaches it with it. I could read a couple of this things from this they've created a new job for themselves called one tologist a Wantologist in the sprawling outskirts of San Jose, and found myself at the apartment door of Catherine Ziegler psychologist and want ologist Could it be? I wonder and there is such Is there such a thing as a want ologists someone we can hire to figure out what we want

2:29:20 I want that job. Oh, I should hire a wantologist to become a want-ologist! A willowy woman of 55 Mrs. Ziegler beckons me in. A framed PhD degree in psychology from the University Illinois hangs on the wall along with an intricate handmade quilt and a collage of images clipped from the magazines...the back of child's head blah blah blah After 20 year careers as a psychologist she expanded her practice to include executive coaching We need to do media coaching by the way. Life Coaching and Wantology Apparently there's a seminar you take from some other phony And you can get accredited? Yeah, as a wantologist

2:30:02 And then people, the idiots will call you up and they'll say I need a wantologist so bad because i'm trying to buy some shoes on eBay. Mail order shoe thing and I don't know how to do it! I am an idiot! I'm a bonehead! I need a wantologist anyway. That's our culture welcome to it. I'm looking up wantologists this is what a bonanza Yeah, well let me tell you a little story before we leave about a life coach because you know if you want to know where life coaches are California is the place for you. They're crawling with them so this is a story from one of miss Mickey's Acquaintances who shall obviously go unnamed and she checks in from time to time and she's she's wealthy Let's put it that way

2:30:53 And she's like, yeah I met this guy and you know we're just kind of feeling good. You know she has a kid who recently separated divorce whatever and here is how it works It is usually a tennis coach and so this guy is a tennis coach but he says no but I'm also life coach And then, you know well I can help you and before you know it like they're making out. But yeah but I don't want to confuse...I think we can do this You know I can separate my professional relationship with you from my personal relationship." Meanwhile he's soaking her for thousands of dollars Wait a minute! He is making it with her and then charging? Yes! He should be in the weekly hooker report! He should be in the weekly hooker report but this is very typical

2:31:40 He's a good looking guy and he is really zen, you know. And he is calm Yeah, that's where we kind of strike out on being life coaches. We could pull it off but we'd be big phonies which is the reason that we are even doing this show because we're deconstructing phoniness. Phoniness... But the wantologist I think is good. That is a winner! It's the next step. A lot of life coaches according to this article very long article you can check out in The New York Times a lot of life coaches have gone into wantology I'm looking up a... I can't believe anybody so stupid has to look up a wantologist and then they make fun of a bunch of other crazy things going on. There's um, i'm looking up an article that I saw posted in hold on saw posted on the Dutch website apparently in the Netherlands because the economy could they produce nothing right? The Netherlands

Dutch Coaching Scams, Gerbil Coach, Singularity University

Gary Johnson Libertarian Nomination Speech

Former Governor Gary Johnson delivers his acceptance speech for the Libertarian presidential nomination. He pledges to submit a balanced budget, veto deficit spending, and advocate for the "Fair Tax." Johnson also calls for ending the wars in Afghanistan and the war on drugs, positioning himself as the only candidate supporting both "gun rights and gay rights."

gary johnson· libertarian party· balanced budget· fair tax· war on drugs

2:38:28 Thank you very much. I want to be the Libertarian nominee for president. Look, presidential candidate has to recognize the problems that face this country give the solutions that go along with the problems and only the libertarian candidate is going to offer up the solutions to the problems we have And then you've got a resume to go along with that and i think i've got the resume. I've been an entrepreneur my entire life I've been an athlete my entire life. I got to be governor of New Mexico for two terms, and said no to bigger government

2:39:13 How did that work out in a state that was two to one Democrat? You know, they did a poll on the favorability of all the presidential candidates running and there was only one presidential candidate running that was viewed favorably in his or her own state. The fact is how did it work out in New Mexico I'm telling you people in New Mexico wave at me with all five fingers not just one Good good government Good government was easy. It wasn't hard, it was easy to look at issues first second third last politics last non-existent and people saw it

2:40:00 I really do think that when it comes to civil liberties, that i've got in spades. I really think that I have gotten in spades when it comes to fiscal responsibility and I base that on the fact that I may have vetoed more legislation than other 49 governors in the country combined All governance, all governance needs to occur under strict adherence to the United States Constitution. As governor of New Mexico...

2:40:38 As governor of New Mexico, I made very few promises. I promised to veto any tax increases! I vetoed every single tax increase not one single penny of tax was increased over an eight-year period in New Mexico that had never happened before. I promised that there would be fewer state employees when i left office than and when I got there There were 1200 fewer state employees when I left office A 10% reduction in state government employees when I left office. That had never happened in the history of the state! I promised to increase, as a percentage of the budget, the amount of money that we spent on education every year and did that for eight straight years which gave me the liberty to talk about real school reform which was bringing competition to public education

2:41:43 If I would have promised everything that I delivered as governor of New Mexico, I would have never been elected because I would've been just another blowhard politician. As president, I am promising to submit a balanced budget to Congress. As president, I'm promising to veto legislation where expenses exceed revenue. As president, I'm promising to advocate on the part of the fair tax and look! I'm listening...I promise to advocate on the part of the less unfair tax.

2:42:29 I promise to end the military wars. I promise to end the war in Afghanistan, and bring troops home. I promise to end the costly and ineffective war on drugs Most Americans are fiscally responsible and socially tolerant. I fall in that group, i think this is a broad brushstroke of the Libertarian Party A broad brush stroke of the Libertarian party as government needs to exist To protect us against force and fraud Government needs to exists to protect us against individuals groups corporations countries That would do us harm

2:43:31 Imagine a libertarian president challenging Congress to bring about marriage equality. Imagine, imagine a libertarian president challenging Congress to reduce impediments to free markets. Free markets means no tariffs! Imagine a libertarian candidate for President challenging Congress to repeal the Patriot Act abolish the Department of Homeland Security Imagine a libertarian president challenging Congress for meaningful immigration reform. The libertarian candidate for president is going to be the only candidate talking about gun rights and gay rights in the same sentence. The libertarian candidate for president is the only candidate that's gonna be talking about slashing welfare spending and slashing warfare spending in the same sentence

2:44:53 The change to me, to be a libertarian is not a change. I have always been a libertarian. I pledge to be active in the Libertarian Party beyond the 2012 election. Make no bones about it! The goal here is to win the election It's always been about the message. I think the message that i'm delivering is the same message as that of Ron Paul, Ron Paul has always said he's a messenger, Ron Paul a week ago says look

2:45:43 I'm not dropping out of this race because the crowds are growing. This is the growing movement in America today and when Ron Paul's candidacy comes to an end, and I hope it doesn't...I hope he is the Republican nominee but I think that it IS going to come to an end And when it comes to an end where does this message go? Well it continues and there is a viable alternative for voting for Ron Paul It will be the Libertarian nominee This is not 2008. I debated Bob Barr in the year 2000 at the Republican National Convention in Philadelphia on drug policy somewhere between that debate and 2008 he fell out of bed, hit his head and became a libertarian. I'm glad it happened this is not about 2008! I don't have any of that baggage hanging in back of me

2:46:56 I did an NPR interview yesterday, all things considered. The question was if you're on the torture rack and they're going to kill you who are you gonna vote for? Mitt Romney or Barack Obama my response was look i've climbed Mount Everest I know what it is to hunker down and do what it takes take this to the bank! I would die! The country does not need to die. There is only one choice and it's going to be the Libertarian nominee for president I respectfully ask you for that nomination Thank you very much You can take that to the bank
