About this episode

Gilead Sciences faces intense scrutiny following the FDA approval of Truvada as a preventative HIV treatment, a move championed by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. The pharmaceutical giant saw its stock value double on the Nasdaq in the months preceding the announcement, sparking allegations of insider trading. Critics point to the drug's $14,000 annual price tag and its potential inclusion in mandatory insurance coverage under the Affordable Care Act as evidence of a deeply entrenched corporate-political alliance.

In the wake of the Benghazi investigation, the CIA admitted to deleting Al-Qaeda references from official talking points, contradicting earlier claims by Ambassador Susan Rice. Meanwhile, the House Republican Conference faces diversity critiques from Rachel Maddow after appointing 19 white men to committee chairmanships, though defenders cite traditional seniority rules. In the private sector, security startup CrowdStrike participated in mock cyber attacks with Janet Napolitano to demonstrate infrastructure vulnerabilities, signaling a shift toward privatized national defense and upcoming federal cyber legislation.

Pharmaceutical marketing reaches new heights as Adam Levine promotes Vyvanse for 14-hour productivity, despite warnings of sudden death and mental illness. The NFL grapples with a surge in Adderall-related suspensions, including New York Giants player Tyler Sash, while the puppeteer behind Sesame Street’s Elmo, Kevin Clash, resigns amidst misconduct allegations. From the 'In The Morning' ham radio net to the No Agenda Brewing Challenge, the community continues to deconstruct the skimp layer of modern media.

Moscow Snowfall, Global Warming, California Weather Patterns

Moscow experienced its heaviest November snowfall in 50 years, prompting a debate over whether extreme weather events are direct evidence of climate change. While some argue that melting Arctic ice acts like an open refrigerator door cooling the world, others maintain that current weather anomalies are consistent with historical patterns. Residents in the San Francisco Bay Area often express shock at typical seasonal temperature shifts, which are frequently attributed to global warming in modern media coverage.

CHAPTER 02 / 46 Discussion

Ice Age Theories, 1970s Environmentalism, Litter Bug Campaigns

A discussion of 1970s environmentalism highlights the shift from "litter bug" awareness campaigns to modern existential climate fears. During the 1970s, some scientists pushed an Ice Age theory, predicting the return of the woolly mammoth, while schools focused on simple conservation efforts like collecting aluminum cans for prizes. Personal anecdotes contrast the aggressive environmental policing of the past, such as grandmothers confronting litterers, with the high-stakes rhetoric of contemporary climate activism.

02:50 in the course of the last few hours. More on the website bbc.com slash news Hey, hey, hey! Heaviest snow ever! What? What? Weather is not climate No no that is so 2011 my friend Weather is this is what you can expect and here's here's the explanation as I understand it. Just want to reiterate Because of course, you know, we know ten years ago that prediction was That sorry the science was children would never know what snow looked like And of course now that the United Kingdom's of Gitmo nation is getting flooded and this is all because of the melting ice and it's like leaving their refrigerator door at the Refrigerator door of the world leaving that open up there up there in the Arctic and that's why it's getting cold whereas

03:35 I'm you know and i say this openly here. I said, dude when they tell you it's gonna get hot just expect the opposite and there you go It's cold everywhere. It's a little chilly here but that is pretty typical of our weather. People forget I mean, I can't tell you how many people that move to California and then their first July in the San Francisco Bay Area they go holy crap this is freezing. And then I swear to God the same people next year say the same thing as if it's a shock and do it again! It's so cold! They never seem to realize that its this way all of time You know we have weather events and there are going on since when I was kid

04:23 Yeah, I mean you know as I mean and before then if you read old newspapers There's weather events that are just as weird is the ones we have today But now any anything that's a little. You know that's not what it was the day before is global warming yeah Well, it's it's all right. So I'm subscribing to the ice age guys well Then those guys with ya I'm with you on this is one of the Ice Age guys many of them Are the same guys who push global warming? A number of them stayed with the ice age theory I'm staying, and now i'm with them. And this was in the 70s which yeah the seventies...I kind of remember.. I mean I don't remember it being well we didn't have as much media back then but I certainly remember going like in school like wow man we got the woolly mammoth again? This is like huh? The woolly mammoth! But they weren't forcing us to you know go home and they weren't forcing us to go home and yell at our parents for

05:21 For you know, the only yellow the extent of being green back in the day was We'd collect cans. I think that was the only thing and then it would do yeah they used to collect can remember there would be like a big contest at school as to which class had the Which classroom had most cans? Yeah And then it'll be away in and we're like yay! We get some kind of prize and I am okay That was it and don't litter Don't litter Litter bug Yeah, litter bug. See we've changed in a couple of decades from litter bug to you're gonna die! It used to be like my grandmother used to get out of the car if she saw someone throw a piece of gum wrapper out of the window she'd hold up traffic at the stoplight to go and pick up the piece of paper knock on the person's window and say excuse me I just picked up your litter can you imagine someone doing that today?

CHAPTER 03 / 46 Discussion

Ham Radio Culture, In The Morning Net, Dwight Eisenhower

The "In The Morning Net" on the NOAA general reflector 3373 serves as a hub for intelligent conversation among ham radio enthusiasts, moving beyond technical jargon about rigs and antennas. Recent discussions on the net explored historical trivia, such as President Dwight Eisenhower performing two inaugural ceremonies. This historical precedent is used to analyze modern presidential inauguration scheduling and the constitutional requirements for the 20th day of January.

06:16 What happened to the days John I'm getting old you know it's too much being on the ham radios. I'm talking to too many old random dudes This is actually very interesting The geezers there are geezers around Most of them are on the AM bands. Well, that's where I am now but a lot of the young guys who basically got their ham license found out there was a bunch of old dudes on this thing it was like you're in the club! Of old dudes and they packed it up. A lot these guy have great stories well it's funny you mention that because we after each live show we do an In The Morning Net

07:05 on the NOAA General Reflector 3373. And there is a benefit to having some old dudes around because we were talking about... and by the way, this is what I'm convinced that I can change ham radio Because what happened is you know, you've got this great resource but no one has anything to talk about So all they do is like yeah. I got this rig Yeah been licensed since 1923. I've got a dipole that's all that it is Lots of antenna talking on that's all that it is It's like and if your five-five nine here, yes, like who gives a crap? This is like no there's no way no intelligent conversation because these people Who are intelligent forgot

07:48 to talk about things that matter instead of literally my rig, the weather, my age when I was licensed. Thanks for the QSO buddy! Now this is a ridiculous waste so we've got a lot of smart people who are very knowledgeable and on the in-the morning net that we did which is on our reflector there We got information that Dwight Eisenhower also did two inaugural ceremonies. And this is about the two Obama theory that we have, that is your theory as he was initially inaugurated and because of some supposed flub they had another secret inauguration without press later and now the inauguration falls on a Sunday according to Constitution on the 20th day at noon the new president shall be inaugurated

CHAPTER 04 / 46 Discussion

Obama Inauguration Theories, Blue Laws, Presidential Doubles

Speculation regarding President Barack Obama's second inauguration centers on the decision to hold a private ceremony on Sunday followed by a public one on Monday. Theories suggest this could be related to state blue laws, which historically prohibited commerce and certain activities on Sundays, or the potential use of presidential doubles, a practice famously attributed to Dwight Eisenhower. Despite claims that the Sunday-to-Monday shift is constitutional, critics argue the Constitution makes no specific provision for moving the date based on the day of the week.

barack obama· dwight eisenhower· constitution· blue laws· presidential inauguration

08:39 But because it's a Sunday apparently, they're going to do the inauguration on Sunday and then have the public inauguration on Monday. And the only reasons we can think of are the NFC championship game which by the way looks like it's gonna be Chicago Oh yeah, the fix is in. Right? Luckily Chicago they can't sustain so that's a good thing but we're pretty convinced that this is in order to fully license both Obamas you know to have both of them... Okay so one of our producers and I'm not sure what he mentioned his name but one of our producers came up with another thesis and I said ah! And he credited it of course to no agenda thinking okay

09:28 There's one Obama, but he can't officially Swear allegiance with his hand on a Bible. It has to be a Koran because he's a Muslim I Didn't like that one. I saw that I'm like Bull crap is the point so let's get back to Eisenhower why did he do too well? There is the only reason that we could find and yeah, so if we were like doing some book of knowledge stuff was the blue laws which The blue laws is something very interesting, basically an anti-constitutional law or several laws that I think some states may still have.

10:12 not anti-constitutional, unconstitutional. Which is you know you can't do... I think Texas is one of them! In Texas you can sell booze without in some areas without a little permit and you can't do it on Sunday this blue laws means you can't sell alcohol or do certain things on Sunday or well if you look at the Book of Knowledge if you look at the book of knowledge it was pretty much the prohibition of anything but commerce grocery stores Right. And I'm trying to see, I think that okay here are Texas for example blue laws prohibited this is past tense selling housewares such as pots and pans that was up until 85 interestingly enough Idiotic! Yeah but you know Illinois Indiana Iowa Louisiana Maine Minnesota Missouri Oklahoma New Jersey lots of lots of states had blue laws so i don't think it's the blue laws but if you go back to Eisenhower

11:08 This was during the height of all kinds of tension in the world. Eisenhower, it was known that he had multiple doubles because he was also the supreme commander during the war so the thesis here is that they also inaugurated a double of Eisenhower. That could be. So I think...I don't think we're far off. It would make sense if he'd have a bunch of doubles Yeah well it was well known that he had a bunch of doubles So I don't think that it's too crazy to think there are literally two dudes, two Obamas. That's our basic thesis yeah and why wouldn't there be? Because they are giving no reason

11:50 Although I see on several websites now, you know because if you look at the Constitution that's all it says. It says Sunday the 20th of January At noon doesn't say anything about Sundays But now people are saying according to the Constitution You know If it's a Sunday then they do the ceremony on Sunday and then the public ceremony said that's not in the Constitution It's not in the Constitution Do rewritten constitution by some PR agency? Yeah, Nolan Nolten Constitution That would be the one So we are going into term two of the Obama Nation, which is... I didn't see his show today. I must have missed it His little YouTube show. I did catch other things that were pretty amazing Oh, by the way you were watching the Soul Train Awards on Friday

CHAPTER 05 / 46 Discussion

Soul Train Awards, Jamie Foxx, Racial Politics

During the Soul Train Awards hosted by Jamie Foxx, the actor referred to Barack Obama as "our lord and savior," sparking a discussion on the current state of racial politics in America. The incident is framed as part of a broader trend where political figures are elevated to religious status within specific cultural contexts. Observers suggest that modern political strategies often involve leveraging racial identity to consolidate voter bases and defend controversial figures.

12:42 I must have missed it. I was traveling you miss the Soul Train Awards No, there were such an award actually be honest about it well Yeah that even though Don Cornelius passed away The franchise still exists and Jamie Foxx was hosting the show And he came out and kicked off the show with something pretty interesting first of all give an honor to God And our lord and savior Barack Obama! Yeah, yeah I saw that. Y'all stand up you gotta... Wow. Our Lord and Savior Barack Obama. Do you think- at first I was like did he do this out of context? No, he really kind of meant that. Wow alright then there's so much black white stuff going on now it's really freaking me out i thought we were beyond this

13:45 No, but if now the Democrats realize that there's anything you know There's a black person involved You just throw the race card out there and make the blacks come out and defend them and all the rest of it Well no. There's like a war on white dudes It's even worse I guess for some reason now there's The war in white dudes has been going on since the 60s But now it's really ratcheting up. In fact, I watch the news and... I get the biggest kick out of the white dudes who are on the anti-white dude side. That's what i'm talking about! It's white dudes saying, you're screwing everything up but wait a minute, you're a white dude? What are you talking about?! You kid! But being a white dude now is like basically you shouldn't walk the street

CHAPTER 06 / 46 Discussion

Rachel Maddow, House Republican Committees, Chris Matthews

Rachel Maddow criticized the House Republican Conference for appointing 19 white men to lead various committees, characterizing the move as a failure of diversity. However, defenders of the appointments argue that committee chairmanships are traditionally based on seniority and the length of time an incumbent has held office. Meanwhile, Chris Matthews drew a controversial comparison between Republican political strategies and historical "black auxiliaries," leading to accusations of extreme rhetoric in mainstream media.

14:34 If you're old white dude, you're a douchebag. Yeah but that's what I'm saying! It's like yeah... You're OLD. So there is ageism and racism and everything. Listen to this. Record number of women in Congress gotta give them the shameless plug hope it brings a little bit of sanity to the process By the way though all of the committee chairs in the House Republican Conference? Yes, White men All white men Very representative Picture of the parties white men, oh the white men. Mad Cow also did it she did uh... The one thing that Republicans control in Washington is the House of Representatives right? They have a majority there and today the Republicans decided who they are putting in charge of all their committees in the house. Can she talk any faster? Um yeah probably. This guy will head the Agriculture Committee

15:15 It's this guy for appropriations. It is this guy for armed services it will be this familiar fellow for budget I love how she do that She talks down to her audience so much listen Republicans have picked and announced who is going to run all their committees in the house In other words they have put in charge Everyone they have the power to put in charge of everything that they are in charge of And here they are She's trying to make a point. Wait, hold on a second! They put in charge... they're in charge because they're the majority party and they put people in charge of the various committees based on seniority

15:54 No, no. So you take your top seniority people and then you give them different positions? You're wrong! It's based on Whitey. It's not based on Whitey if there was a bunch of old black women they'd be in charge of something too. No it's based on Whitey this is very obvious because Rachel Maddow is telling me that it's based on Whitey listen... They are in charge of and here they are Did you notice anything about their selections? Here, here's the whole group of who the Republicans picked to run their committees. They picked these 19 guys. Notice anything?! So yeah this is what you can clip and save for next time someone in the beltway tells you how seriously the Republican party is taking its diversity problem this year!

16:40 So you are... They don't have any choices done on seniority. Thank you! If there's nobody old enough or been re-elected enough, they're not going to put him in some position over somebody with seniority. Why is no one saying this? Because nobody well I think it's because your thesis is correct It's just a hatred of race hatred against white people who are essentially anybody that's got one of those jobs has stuck to that that office for a long time they've gotten re-elected and re-elected and they haven't moved, there may be something wrong with that but that's a different issue which is in other words get the incumbents out. That's a different issue than putting somebody who deserves that position because they've been there and they have seniority, they're supposed to get that job. But is that the rule? Give me a break! This is racist

17:29 creep this woman is a creep by the way I wish i had a clip from a couple weeks ago we didn't use it but I listened to was an interview with the Martin Caldwell and that the guy used to be nightline big head red headed got bigger the big heck of the was never seen anyway he yeah he went on Very famous anchor went on and on about how he thought it would be great if Rachel Maddow became a network anchor. I guess he likes fast talking lesbians, but just beyond me. Listen to Chris Matthews here is an actual old white dude crapping on old white dudes

18:10 And as if that's some kind of explanation, uh, some kind of a explanation for the weird phenomenon or the fact that the Republicans didn't win. There was this extraterrestrial force out there of African Americans and Hispanics. Okay now where can we take this? You're Chris Matthews you're an old white dude, you've got a rag on old white dudes what is the best way to do that? What is the... how do you close the conversation forever I have no idea, but i'm sure it's a gem. Well duh! That's the country. The last person to try that is the United States. This has no bearing on the Republican Party and these references are always dangerous but I'll take them anyway. The last guy referred to as black auxiliary was Hitler. Anyway... There we go. Old white dudes are Hitler

18:59 And he's the worst pasty-faced white guy ever. I can't believe he pulled the Hitler card! That's a good one, pull it out of the blue! Okay...I just want you to know this is racism, ageism and dudeism. Sexism man! New shit has come to light! Sexism that right, it's all isms It's crazy! Sexism, racism and age-ism. And dude-ism. Cause you can't... dudes. It's a war on dudes. It is! It is a war on dudes. It's crazy Yeah. Anyway, let's... I don't think anybody takes it too seriously except these idiots Well it's not about this you know what it is John? It's not about the serious nature if you keep if you just keep cracking and pounding it pounding it pounding it pounding it chipping away Let me give you a great example of how the mainstream media which is last time I checked not what we are

CHAPTER 07 / 46 Discussion

Middle Class Mandate, American Dream, Rush Limbaugh

Media programming has shifted the definition of the American Dream from achieving unlimited success to simply entering and staying in the middle class. Critics, including Rush Limbaugh, argue that this "mandate to protect the middle class" actually discourages upward mobility and traps citizens in mediocrity. The rhetoric is viewed as a psychological tool to make the populace content with stagnant economic status while the super-wealthy maintain their positions.

barack obama· rush limbaugh· middle class· american dream· upward mobility

20:01 How they slip things in that get into your mind and of course the mainstream media doesn't question them themselves, but this is the programming that is going on. So right now we have if you're old and white and a dude this is not good You are not the future! You're on the wrong side of history my friend Now listen to this...you tell me what is said in this 17 second clip that is damaging to your mental health. No, I didn't. Play it again because now that I have a... maybe we'll have to listen for it. Try it again. Give me another one. Sure. The president has and I think he said this just after the election his mandate is to protect the middle class and help people enter and stay in the middle class so how do we do that? We have to make sure- This is the new American dream John

20:58 Yeah, no I okay. Here's what it was he says by the way his mandate was not to protect the middle class Where did that come from well? This is part of the programming if you're my way see I can vote for Obama And oh what's it say underneath his name to protect the middle class This is a bumper sticker and then the evil part of it was to get them into the middle class and make them stay there Exactly upward mobility exactly. Thank you again They're just getting by theme that they've been voting so yes, and by the way There was actually now I'm gonna You know this you always get mad when I do this but did hear an interesting point made by of all people Rush Limbaugh

21:36 And I don't get mad, it's just like who gives a crap? Yeah yeah but he said that believe me, I sent for some of his deconstructions and they're pretty good. But let me why don't you do this then just make your point to steal it. I can steal it from now on so the point was is that Buffett and his bull crap, you know I can be taxed. He made the point that to tax people more is to create income equality doesn't hurt the super wealthy it actually keeps people from getting out of the middle class, it keeps them from going up

22:15 the latter and Buffett and these guys don't want that. These rich Democrats, most of the super wealthy in this country by the way are Democrats so they just assume yeah I take some more taxes no big deal but the thing they never bring up although Limbaugh says it's never brought up i've found some examples of it having been brought up and I think is something to bring up which is these guys would just start shaking which is a wealth tax If you're gonna play this game, I mean this is what like the cap and trade thing. You know you're going to play the cap-and-trade game Why don't you play it right? And if you really believe in global warming just cap no trade Before before you move back there let me play you a little clip of Warren Buffett talking about this

23:00 Because of course so once again, let me just go back and we just play this for those of you who missed it I want to hear when you're here. Again This is the American dream is get in the middle class and stay there slave. This is very important. This is Completely contrary to what the American Dream really is is the president middle-class? No He makes it 250 thousand actually, I think it's been increased to 275 The President United States has not middle class he's outside of the middle class This is not the American dream. I can be that guy. I can be the richest man in America, I can be the guy who owns the store on The Corner, I can do whatever i want to be it's not just get into middle class and stay there you slave let me display that one more time and then play the Buffett thing. The president has said this just after the election his mandate is to protect the middle-class and help people enter and stay in the middle class so this is for you to remember this is the media programming your brain now Warren Buffet realizes that taxes

CHAPTER 08 / 46 Discussion

Warren Buffett, Wealth Tax Proposal, Income Inequality

Warren Buffett's support for higher taxes on the wealthy is criticized as a "morale boost" for the middle class that fails to address actual wealth accumulation. An alternative proposal by Daniel Altman suggests a flat 1.5% wealth tax on all financial assets, housing, and business ownership, which could theoretically replace all revenue from income, estate, and gift taxes. This shift from taxing income to taxing total net worth would target the super-wealthy who avoid traditional income taxes through stock options and low salaries.

warren buffett· daniel altman· wealth tax· income tax· internal revenue service

24:02 It doesn't mean it's not going to change anything if you look at this, if you really just look at the numbers we're just spending too much. But now that we can stop the spending because then the economy collapses because we're spending and on bomb making stuff which are really good at and I saw all the money goes so that's what most of the people make their money off in America but that's not the point The point is, let's give these stupid slaves something to feel good about. And Warren Buffett will just put it in your face and tell it to your face. Bottom line? Would raising taxes on the wealthiest Americans have a chilling effect on hiring in this country? No! I think that would have great effects of the morality middle class who've seen themselves paying

24:41 high payroll taxes, income taxes and then they watch guys like me end up paying a rate that's below that you know paid by the people in my office. So there it is! It's all just making you feel good it's like just a little little thing to make the slaves feel good The morale, you feel good. Yeah I got that rich bastard! This is wrong this is so incredibly wrong. The guy is really something that's for sure he's a piece of work as they like to say in the 18th of uh this month the op-ed Daniel Altman wrote in a to reduce inequality wealth tax not income tax

25:19 had this to say, which I thought was kind of interesting. American household wealth totaled more than 58 trillion in 2010 and a flat wealth tax of just 1.5% financial assets and other wealth like housing cars and business ownership would have been more than enough to replace all the revenue of the income estate and gift taxes which amounted to about 833 billion after refunds so let's take let's take a look at this as an idea You and I, and everybody that's you know that is whatever part of the art. Everyone within the sound of our voice! Everyone within the sound of our voice Imagine your total tax burden would be 1.5% of everything you own period And compare that which much of it is debted by the way so that would be counted in other words if you owe If you have a $500,000 house then

26:11 put 200,000 on it you'd have to pay taxes on the part you own which would be 300. But anyway compare that to what you're having going to have to pay which is 30 percent and more of your income and see how that balances out and you'll find that the wealth tax for most people would probably be lower except if you're way up there and you've got, you know houses like John McCain. Seven houses, fleets of cars or people with private jets I mean these guys, now i would like to hear what Buffett would say if you threw this one at him because he can say oh i want my taxes increased. He doesn't have any taxable income the guy's a phony! What is he? He's like Bill Gates for awhile paying himself or Steve Jobs paying himself $1 a year plus stock

27:02 Well, it's bullcrap. Yeah anyway So that's just something to think it I think you should go out there as a meme just to scare these guys Because somebody is a billionaire 1% at one point 5 percent of a billion dollars is quite a bit of money No, I don't think they'll care all the stuff It will be It's already now. It's all rigged. You know. I'm saying if we actually make it happen Non-rigged. Yeah, but it's not it's not gonna happen because the guys in Okay, this is my point didn't that see when you bring up the Rush Limbaugh thing then you start to set limbs like The Rush Limbaugh show now. No, he's not interested as far He's not a rush limbaughs got too much money to want something like that It's just not interesting all I'm trying to point out is interesting to me Yes, the point I'm trying to make how much money are you hiding? Anyway? Oh yes Hold on a second. Um oh yeah

27:55 There you go. Let's just say you don't have to pay any taxes now the only thing I want to point out is be wary of much, much bigger than taxes schmacks gives a crap much bigger than that is the programming to change the populace of the American that the popular thinking and the meme of the American dream this is this to me as the problem This is way bigger than anything else That you're supposed to be mediocre. Because isn't that what middle class means? Be mediocre! Um, Penn State...

CHAPTER 09 / 46 Discussion

Penn State Manufacturing Video, Student Loan Scams, Textbook Costs

A promotional video from Penn State highlights a high demand for skilled manufacturing professionals, claiming graduates can earn between $40,000 and $75,000 annually. This marketing is scrutinized alongside the rising costs of higher education and the "student loan scam" that burdens young adults with debt for vocational training. Additionally, the textbook industry is criticized for frequent edition updates that prevent students from buying used books, with some communications textbooks costing as much as $240.

28:34 Has a sales video because you know in case you didn't know in the United States of Gitmo nation You go, we have this everyone's got to go. Go to college This is another one of the president's memes. You've all gotta go to college Because everyone deserves a fair shot and of course there are gonna be no jobs for you But that is kind of different Penn State, which basically commercial right? They charge a lot of money don't they even the state school Penn State to charge a lot. Everybody you know this is funny all the schools that public schools which used to be free essentially because there were public schools paid for by the taxpayers to educate the masses mm-hmm they all started seeing what was going on with this in loan scam which is one of the worst things that has ever been propagated and this on this poor nation

29:23 and the high cost of going to a private school, and the fact that some people would just take out student loans. They just said hey you know why don't we charge the same amount of money make some serious dough here? Exactly! And screw the kids. So yes it's the same thing as going to Penn State is it right? And on top of that there's the book scam which I want to mention in this side. The book scam was the worst?! Let me tell what happened...I was at the hairdresser at the barber shop hairdresser. Excuse me? At the hairdresser, at the coiffeur and one of the girls who works there because you know it's a chick salon Did they do your toes shut up it's a chick salon It's on South Congress its 50 bucks it's really expensive coiffure and one other girl who works there says oh! You were in my school books she is studying communications I'm like Oh really? She said yeah as with podcasting I was like that pretty cool which book is this so write down the book

30:22 And I'm like, you know, I'll order the book on Amazon and it's cool. It's being taught in schools. But it was a textbook? $240 for a book! For a book! And then...and I saw her four weeks later five weeks later and I said How often do you have your hair done? I have to do it every five weeks my hair grows really quick So I say hey man, you know. I didn't order the book and maybe I could just get a copy of your page because it's 240 bucks She says oh yeah Oh Yeah And you know and by the way? I had to have the right version because I was going to she was gonna rent one You can rent books now apparently for a fraction of the cost

31:07 And she said, and I was going to rent one that was much cheaper like 80 bucks. But I couldn't use that one because it's the wrong version so this scam is so deep now anyway So he on to the Penn State commercial you think you go to Penn State to get a degree in and Go have a what is there white collar job? We'll see some days at the manufacturing folks are begging us for students we've had more calls from companies than we've had in years While the national unemployment rate remains high, ironically so does the demand for skilled manufacturing professionals. That acute need is felt at Pennsylvania College of Technology Despite whatever you might think about the economy our students typically had multiple offers and opportunities with major companies all across the United States In manufacturing they're showing people operating a touchscreen on a manufacturing line John

32:03 Which apparently you have to go to university now, To understand how to operate that. So the idea is... You spend- Uh do I push this? I'm telling ya! And look it gets better because not only did they say hey demand is high you gotta come to our school demand is crazy we don't even have enough students to give these people and even during the summer we had manufacturers coming to us asking for our students and we really couldn't supply anyone because they were already well placed and the students have great opportunities. Wait, wait for it! They don't have to settle for one job they can sometimes name their price and they can go back-and-forth and choose a job that really fits them These are very sustainable jobs and very good incomes I believe the range ran in the spring roughly minimum $40,000 a year to about $75,000 in that range Wow! I gotta get me some education

33:03 This is bullcrap anyway, it's bull crap. It's a sales video. It's just a lie! But I was amazed...it's okay if you don't go to college. We used to have a nation of people who would make stuff We don't have that anymore. We all have to be middle class, get in there... It's like the my dad had a theory once the customer marketing method it's like it's like a pyramid go figure my dad and pyramids all seeing eye and was like get him in move them up And this is the same concept! Get them in move them up and keep them right there in the middle bit where everything is controlled I find it peculiar

Adam Curry School of Podcasting, Vocational Accreditation

A conceptual "Adam Curry School of Podcasting" is proposed as an alternative to traditional, expensive communications degrees. The discussion explores the differences between elite university accreditation and vocational training, suggesting that a virtual school could teach the practical aspects of the medium. The hosts joke about the chief principal and special lecturer roles while considering the commercial potential of selling podcasting kits and hosting services.

adam curry· john c. dvorak· podcasting· accreditation· vocational school

33:51 Well, besides the fact that it's still basically a lie. There is also some promotion in there for some technology school. This is the big thing going on right now. These DeVry and all these other guys are getting all the attention. Can't we do that? We've looked at this but you have to be accredited right? That's the whole problem... No! You don't have to be accredited?! Ah, we can just start the school. It depends on what accreditation there are different kinds of accreditation if you want to be the University of California at Berkeley also known as CIA West and if you want to be that you have to you have to be part of this large accreditation system that all the exclusive colleges have and yeah that's special and that were not getting that nobody is getting that unless you've been around and you got some chops

34:39 No, but there's all these other secondary third-rate things that do of course the top guys would never accept it a credit from any of These other ones but that's besides the point if you're doing vocational stuff so we could teach pot. We can have podcasting school Podcasting school the Adam Curry podcasting school with Adam curry is the chief principal and special lecturer John C Dvorak Hello kids, yeah we can have the Adam Curry podcast in school and of course you could we could sell a pact. We should probably just do that and stop doing this show. Thank you! Thank you um I do have a great offer though that was sent to me uh from our friends at the Bureau. We have friends at the agency friends at the Bureau this is from the Bureau... Do we here? I want to stop for a second

FBI Cyber Careers, Ethical Hacking, Challenge Coins

The FBI is actively recruiting for its cyber team, seeking individuals with expertise in "ethical hacking," computer forensics, and information technology. Requirements for these internships include a 3.0 GPA and enrollment in an accredited university. The recruitment drive coincides with a discussion on the history of challenge coins, which originated in the military and have since spread to agencies like the FBI, CIA, and State Department.

35:31 We got some more challenge coins from some State Department ones. Oh, and... And literally from the state? These are from the embassies in Burma. Cool! Love it. So we have A lot of challenge coins from all over the place. And I was talking to JC about this and he says that challenge coins, because I said where's our NSA challenge coins? Yeah this one we do not have. He says that the challenge coin stems from the military and the only reason we're getting them from the CIA and people like us is because it's essentially part of the military. Right. It stems from the military so yeah... So the question remains is that I guess there is no NSA challenge coins maybe

36:18 You know get you get off the duffs well I think the reason why we get challenge coins from so we have them from FBI CIA I Don't have an FBI one. Oh, I have FBI Dallas yeah That's because they have gift shops that's basically that's what Because you know it's easy for people just pick one up in the FBI gift shop but the FBI has an offer for you to join FBI's cyber team and be the best at what you do.

Watergate Theories, Rolling Stones Interview, Kodak Disc Camera

A new theory regarding the Watergate break-in suggests the burglars were attempting to retrieve a compromised roll of film involving Richard Nixon. This leads to a personal anecdote from 1984 involving a Rolling Stones interview in London, where a Kodak disc camera was used to take potentially scandalous photos of a television announcer. The speaker describes breaking into a Dutch broadcasting press bureau to retrieve the film and prevent the evidence from being developed and leaked.

richard nixon· watergate· rolling stones· keith richards· kodak

38:58 E-L-R-O-N, the Elron incident. I have no idea what it means. I don't know. Is it... did you look it up on the book of knowledge? Yeah! No no no no he assured me the note said It's not in the book of knowledge. Ask this guy about the L-rates, like they turn out to do each other but who is more real? Who is a more real Fed? I have an anecdote from somebody. The guy says during the Nixon era he lived in Washington DC and he lived down the street from somebody I guess who was one of the agencies and he says that the whole Watergate break Yeah. Was, uh... it was all- nobody's ever really gotten the story correct. It was Nixon they- the Democrats had a picture of Nixon in a compromised position with an underage teenage hooker Yes! I believe it right away. I'm in. I'm done okay let's write it up And they had to get the roll of film back This sounds totally, totally right

40:02 and destroyed it, and so that's why it never came up. I so believe this! You know that this happened to me once? What? Did I tell you the story where this happened to me? This exact same thing My own watergate... Should I tell you the story? Yeah So I just started at the television...I was 19 And I was on television in Holland It was only two stations, everyone knew me And I went to go interview the Rolling Stones. So we're talking, when was I 19? John this is 1983 I think 84. No no no. So i go to interview the Rolling Stones in London and were in London it's like one of these shoots where you know they're all like rolling around and its hard to get them into the room and everyone's waiting...and were talking tape right? Were talking analogue were talking clapboards! You know this way back in the day

40:47 Please you'll forget that year in 2012. So finally, you know the guys stumble in it was Keith and Woody they fall into the room like oh hold on a second go into bathroom They're snorting coke off his Bowie knife You know my guy so they finally sit down here we do the interview It was great because they were completely hammered and then my producer says Oh man Yeah Let's take a picture because we can get this on the front page of the newspaper that you did an interview with him great promotion for The show and no one had a camera Can you imagine this is 1984 no one had brought a camera But I had a new one of these new fangled Kodak disc cameras in my briefcase remember those the Kodak discs They had a disc right so I say oh, I've got the Kodak discs which by the way crappy photos. They took really crap photos Yeah, they were little bitty negatives or dinky like it like a view master in So they take a picture

41:40 And we go back and so that we have a service. The service is the Dutch Broadcasting Corporation where they would actually take, it's called the Press Bureau you would give them your film and they would have it developed then they'd send out to the newspapers etc So I gave the disc to my producer At the time I was dating one of Well, she would just... I'm already seeing where this is headed. She had just started to do.. she was an announcer on television they had these announcers in between the it's very much like the BBC does with voice in Holland they would have an announcer and she would sit there and say oh coming up next we have this show and this show after that and then she would go away and then she'd come in like kind of a disc jockey of television shows and really pretty girl Caroline Tensa everyone in Holland knows her

42:36 And then all of a sudden I'm like, oh crap man. I took pictures of her with the disc camera and they're not- they're like not flattering. They have naked pictures! And so we broke into the press bureau that night to retrieve the disc and then have it developed somewhere else where we could actually, you know get rid of the prints. The evidence! The evidence...and I still have these pictures which is the best part. I've carried them with me through two marriages What?! What a pervert But these things do happen and I totally believe that How can we find out more about Nixon? This is great

43:15 Well, I don't know. Do you think all the guys involved with that... Actually any one of the burglars? How many of the burglars would have been privy to the real target? I think probably that creepy guy who was always claiming to be a super spy and used his hand on fire. What is hi name? G Gordon Liddy would know but then you can trust what he says now. No, no, i'm not. I don't think it's verifiable I love it though. Good story, only on NOA-GENDA! Oh hold on a second... We have great old crazy gossip on the NOA-GENDA show It's not gossip this is fact! Fact? Crazy? It's not Gossip! Let's thank some producers

Newsletter Art, Sir Andrew Seuss, Apple Employee Donations

The No Agenda newsletter art, often sourced from the community art generator, sparked listener interest after featuring a woman in a swimming pool. Recent donations include contributions from Sir Andrew Seuss in Melbourne and an anonymous employee at Apple. The hosts discuss the high number of architects who listen to the show, attributing it to the profession's requirement for "outside the box" thinking and artistic sensibility.

CrowdStrike Security, Janet Napolitano, Cyber Warfare

CrowdStrike, a stealth-mode security startup led by CEO George Kurtz, is described as the "Blackwater of cyber warfare." The company recently participated in a mock cyber attack involving government officials like Janet Napolitano to demonstrate infrastructure vulnerabilities. This surge in private cyber security firms is seen as a precursor to upcoming federal cyber legislation and a shift toward privatized national defense in the digital realm.

54:16 I think we have a few more messages from you, from our coach. Well first let me say in the morning to you John C... Wait a minute! Why do you do that? Because that's what you said. In the morning. Come on wait a minute. In the morning John C DeVora King of The Wild Frontier Well then, in the morning to you Adam Curry. In the morning all ships and sea boots on the ground subs in the water feet in the air and all the knights and dames out there who support this show week after week we appreciate every one of them for being so helpful yes not just helpful but supportive I think is the actual

54:55 The actual verbiage and thank you to Nick the rat for our artwork on the previous episode of the no agenda show The best podcast in the universe check out all of the art at no agenda Art generator calm And if you're out there, and are just living the American dream of getting by You can always help us by doing one thing and that is propagating our formula Our formula is this we go out. We hit people in the mouth oh Also, I want to thank Martin JJ for the alternative art that showed up. Oh really? He's yeah You know it's hard to keep up with these guys these guys are good. I mean just like our architects We we attract an artistic crowd John just face it we an artistic crowd and

55:54 We have these, we have that comes in a way. We get like two or three guys to get real competitive and then they I don't want to say they burn out but they get tired of doing it. I'm not sure what happens because somebody else comes along and then they do it the funny thing about Martin JJ is that we looked at a lot of his stuff up over the year he's actually been contributing for a long time and only lately got into this groove yeah Because he was getting, you know coming in second and third on the choices for like a year. And then all of sudden he's kicking everybody off the front page. Like we're giving trophies second place.

56:30 Sorry, but then the next thing you know is like hammering it out of the park. So you really have to wonder that's where I guess the message is that people should just keep trying? I want to since we are an equal opportunity offender and job provider for those of you who were already often sending your resumes into the FBI there is an alternative which I'd like to recommend one of our producers apparently works there Is the black water of cyber warfare and I think you should check this outfit out if you're gonna send your resume They are called crowd strike and that is a Charlie Romeo Oscar W Delta Strike Crowdstrike.com a stealth mode security startup, you can join the mission And do remember a couple of

57:24 It was a couple of weeks ago, there was a mock. I think it was part of state. What is it? Remember they had that like cyber week and Janet Napolitano showed up everywhere and doing little talks about our infrastructure etc. The CEO... Janet Napolitano the person who doesn't use email and probably doesn't know how to boot a computer that one? Yeah that one. That's the one. So the CEO of this company Crowdstrike he was they did like a mock George Kurtz is his name They did a mock attack and he was supposed to be you know Like the CEO of the company that was attacked and you know Here's how we're gonna handle this and how are going to do something this it's incestuous So, this is the black water. Keep your eye out for crowd strike the Blackwater of cyber warfare Which is going to kick in too high gear right after well I guess when next year when the

Domestic Drones, Pipeline Infrastructure, FAA Regulations

The push for domestic drone use in the United States is being accelerated by concerns over aging pipeline infrastructure and recent gas explosions. While the FAA has a 2015 deadline for full integration, agencies may use "pipeline surveys" as a justification for earlier implementation of surveillance technology. This strategy mirrors the use of small helicopters for maintenance contracts, potentially leading to a permanent "Skynet" presence over American freeways and industrial corridors.

drones· faa· ntsb· infrastructure· pipelines

58:19 When our government gets back and does something, that's when we'll see all of the cyber legislation come into play. Which is going to be very interesting! Oh yeah... So here's a thesis that I think is going to be the big boom and this may be the push the administration is going to do here in America And I think it will work in other countries as well Not all of them but in other countries it will work We pretty much were making all the killing stuff We're really good at the drone stuff. So now that we have, and I really like that you put us on this attention span of look for rebuilding of our hundred year old infrastructure! So we have pipelines or gas explosions continuous gas explosions and this will be a part of the new infrastructure needs to be built right? So if you overlay that

59:23 with the push and actually, the illegal push to get drones flying domestically in the United States. The FAA is by 2015 they're supposed have everything all set up but of course already drones are flying everywhere as tests or beta etc if we don't want to wait until 2015 to have the Skynet implemented above the United States this is how you do it We're going to declare these explosions When that's why the NTSB is there because gas is transported through pipelines. We need to get the drones To survey the croc it's hilarious to survey the pipelines Pipeline survey I used to fly pipelines just to get hours on the helicopter pipelines pipeline surveys is big big big in fact most

1:00:14 Small helicopter what all helicopter companies are really small companies They all survive on a pipeline contract typically and then they'll you know have lessons and fly people around and do other stuff But the real money is either made on maintenance or on pipeline protection So I think we're going to see this push to get drones flying over pipelines because they're so dangerous And they're exploding and all you watch. The news will come out that That people were digging near a pipeline or someone, you know hit a pipeline and you know like over there in Massachusetts some hookers were out there digging and then I'm sorry strippers And then they they hit the pipeline. It didn't know and that's why it blew Or their high heel pierced the pipeline and that's how we're gonna get drones flying and that's how we're gonna upgrade the infrastructure I can see an entire movement coming around this

1:01:06 Well, we know we're going to get drones flying. But we need them earlier than 2015? Oh yeah! No they're gonna be... I mean the police departments are gonna have drones there's gonna be drones everywhere they weather services KRON whether on the fours will have a drone flying up and down the front or not it'd be the freeway report traffic report on the force And they're gonna be with the fours. I guess somebody's on all fours so So there could be a I've never heard of traffic on the fours Traffic on the fours It's on the six it's always in the six traffic on the floors and the eights so anyway, so the traffic on the fours and the eights to be a drone flying all over up and down their freeways and With little photo taking photos right? And we're flying up and down the pipelines This is gonna be big business John wish us stupid

The project aims to integrate streaming and hosting services, potentially partnering with existing providers to offer a complete "home kit" for aspiring creators.

1:01:56 Here we are diddling around with our little podcasting school. No, no I'm telling you... We've already figured it out It's the Adam Curry School of Podcasting. I don't think that's..I mean That's not a... There used to be a school of broadcasting two of them and they said they were competitive! a diploma from the Connecticut School of Broadcasting. Never heard of that one, but that's typical. You actually got a diploma from the school of broadcasting? Yeah because I went to Paul Allen School of Broadcasting also known as Tech TV Hold on a second... and I didn't actually take the course Just when you just got a diploma. I just went to you know did like a talk or whatever You know like hey man if you come and talk at our school will give you a free diploma Okay, it's like the honorary degree at the University of Maryland for giving the keynote so Commencement so how do we set this up this Adam Curry School of podcasting? It's like The School of Rock in a way isn't it? I think we should just do a has to be a virtual school because we're not let's face it

1:02:56 Neither one of us are interested in dealing with the real estate issues of actually having a school. So what we need is, we need a little... We need a book? A podcasting book which I've been... Mimi's been wanting to do anyway for years. Wait a minute didn't we start writing that? Wait! Stop stop stop! Didn't we start writing a podcasting book many years ago?! I think we talked about it. Nooo! I remember.... Well maybe, maybe we may have some text ready so look out and look at the archives I've been sucked into the Dvorak writing a book that never gets finished whole oh no And we'll sell the book with some some gear you need some gear little microphone Mixer microphone mixer. Yeah, yeah, there's something cheap it'll be like Adam Curry's home kit and

1:03:59 Yeah, a little kit. Comes with the kit and then you can start podcasting some software so that... Wait wait wait! And we build in the hosting service? We got Mr Oil with this whole hosting service thing right? That might be good too. Streaming learn how to stream. Or give us special deals with Podbean or something No no we're not gonna give it to Podbean I don't want to do free hosting. Now who said oh hold on a second who's anything but free Okay, hello. Okay good. Hello free all right okay? It's fine then let those guys charge for it They give it to us for free let them let them have a look at some of the piece of the action east Hey, we'll give you a taste What do we drug dealers? By the way Let me tell you I saw the best I got to talk about drugs for a minute

ZzzQuil Marketing, Sleep Aids, Walgreens Displays

Procter & Gamble has launched ZzzQuil, a non-habit-forming sleep aid marketed by the makers of NyQuil. The product's marketing strategy at retailers like Walgreens uses sensory triggers, including twinkling lights and soothing music, to attract consumers. Critics note that the active ingredients are essentially the same as those found in traditional cough medicines, but repackaged specifically for the sleep aid market.

zzzquil· nyquil· walgreens· sleep aid· marketing

1:04:52 Because you know since I stopped smoking, um i'm always interested in drugs looking for drugs everywhere and so my daughter was here and we see this commercial on television For zz quill are you familiar with zz quill? So nyquil. I think i've seen a commercial right so nyquil I wonder if the... Oh right, this stuff. Sleeping NyQuil. Right so let me just explain. So NyQuil is a cough syrup an antihistamine or whatever it's a cough medicine but and i think isn't that the stuff that you can make crystal meth from? Yeah I think there's some of that in there. Okay. It's one of the ephedrins

1:05:33 So it is well known that you know people take this to fall asleep even if they don't have a cough. Let me see if I could find... Right, they say, I can't get used to sleep and then they clunk out. Let me see if I can find the commercial. I didn't-I should have looked for this but just came up so we see this commercial all of sudden for not NyQuil but Zzzquill which is oh here it is which is literally selling that the same stuff in a new bottle Um, as a sleeping aid which is completely crazy. It's like you don't need a prescription and the stuff will knock you out I think this looks like introducing Z-Quil sleep aid it's not for colds it's not for pain its just for sleep because sleep is a beautiful thing Z-Quil the non habit forming sleep aid from the makers of Nyquil So you hear that little music? so we're walking through Walgreens

1:06:26 Picking up some stuff and we walk past the display in that music starts playing with a snoring beautiful And it's literally a little twinkly lights on the on the display like Little Christmas, and you hear cling-cling clung cling-cling clue. We're like zombies who were like Z Quill need and we bought like a big two pack of zQuill and we all feed ourselves suckers if we roofied ourselves It was science. We're testing it out And so it worked really well. No wonder you were late for the show no that was two days ago Same thing and while we're at it I'd like to play another drug ad this is the all-new Vyvanse which I think Adam Levine shills for he's a guy from The Voice

NFL Adderall Suspensions, Military Amphetamine Use, Performance Enhancement

The NFL is facing a surge in Adderall-related suspensions, including New York Giants player Tyler Sash, who tested positive for the stimulant. The use of amphetamines for performance enhancement has a long history, dating back to Benzedrine use on Navy ships during World War II and opium use in ancient armies. Current regulations allow players with pre-existing ADHD diagnoses to use the drug, leading to a trend of athletes seeking medical exemptions before entering professional leagues.

adderall· nfl· tyler sash· benzedrine· world war ii

1:11:39 Amphetamine? Woah! Liz Dexter fricking lucking may cause tics and it's illegal to sell. Hint hint, wink wink, nudge nudge say no more You know they've never since World War II my dad told me this he said when you're on a Navy ship in World War 2 it was like everyone was wasted on benzadrine The whole Navy. This, by the way is not unusual. The Army since the days of during I guess Alexander the Great used to keep his troops stoned on opium I mean the whole army was just on opium so they'd fight and they couldn't feel any pain. No, it's just like well these guys you can't even hurt them! So Vyvans' little sister which is Adderall has been a big there's been a big blow up now within the NFL. Giants player Tyler Sashe...I have no idea where these people are

1:12:35 But he was, um... He had a random drug test and his doctor had prescribed him Adderall. Which is an amphetamine! It's coke! In fact it's really good stuff- It's an amphetamine not coke. Okay. It's speed. It's as good as Coke I'm reliably informed Well that's fine and dandy but it's not cocaine its an amphetamines different type of upper Okay, I'll just say it's like coke. Okay? Okay fine say whatever you want Just like coke but it's in a pill and yeah And it's legal I mean selling its illegal But it's legal so these guys are getting suspended from games But the here's what's interesting other players who either had been prescribed Adderall before they joined the league like in school when they were kids or

1:13:29 They don't, they're not getting in trouble for taking Adderall because they had like a pre-existing condition. So the idea is get on it now before you start playing college ball. Actually that's funny. No it's not funny! It's crazy but this is what the message is. Get on it now before you get to professional sports And all you have to do... Just a little bit of ADHD, whatever. They tried to, you know they would NASCAR one driver was caught with it and we tested it and they decided that no because you don't need I'll need a bunch of guys driving around at 200 miles an hour high speed The whole country is on this stuff

1:14:16 Yeah, the whole point I was trying to make before so rudely interrupted was my father was on a ship and their Benzidrine was what they used to use. And then they've slowly evolved into various other amphetamines dextroamphetamine you know Dexedrine which became Dexedrine was the brand name and then again but that still had there's still one problem after another with these things and they have been fine tuning the way i see it essentially benzadrine, Benny's Uppers since probably before World War II and it has taken this long which is 50-60 years they keep working on it to get something that actually does whatever the trick is they're trying to make happen. Which apparently just gets you all wired up without too many side effects so thats that. Are you sure?

Truvada HIV Prevention, Hillary Clinton, AIDS-Free Generation

Truvada has been approved by the FDA as a preventative "pre-exposure prophylaxis" (PrEP) for individuals at high risk of HIV infection. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton championed the drug at the World AIDS Congress, framing it as a cornerstone of achieving an "AIDS-free generation." The drug is being marketed to healthy individuals, particularly within the gay community, as a way to prevent transmission during unprotected sexual encounters.

truvada· hillary clinton· hiv· aids· fda

1:15:10 Yeah, I don't want to like rudely interrupt you. I knew you'd be rudely always saying something insulting rudely interrupt you i'm so sorry for rudely interrupting yeah well you should know you rudely interrupted my flow Mr 8 clip shows up for the meeting and can I want one more drug story this is a big one this is a very big one So my daughter and I we had dinner on uh what was it I remember Tuesday night with John and Chris. And John and Chris are our super, super pumped up beautiful gay friends. It's important that I say this normally it isn't but in this case it is. And so of course... Pumped? Pumped up in what way? Oh they go to the gym every morning at 530. But you know they're like

1:16:03 five, seven to the not really tall but they're really you know buff. Yeah the good looking guy. I get to play my Bicurious card on him it's what i like and they tell me a story that was related to this, I can't remember how it came about but we were talking about something and they laid this story on me and it blew me away. And I went back to the genesis of it which only happened a couple months ago and there is such a huge plan underway when it comes to a drug It's mind boggling! The drug is Truvada

1:16:44 and Truvada is now being heralded as the go ahead and screw all you want, have any type of sex you want drug which you take before you go out and have unprotected sex because it will stop you from getting AIDS. And this is a huge thing in the gay community because essentially everyone's like this is it! This kicks ass! Yeah I've heard of this... Okay so Let me step back. I know several people who have died of AIDS and AIDS related diseases, you don't really die of AIDS, you die of pneumonia and other things that happen to your immune system breaks down. And what I found it's in many people in music industry Dan Hartman Freddie Mercury knew Dan Hartman very well Freddie Mercury a little bit

1:17:35 you know, they had very extravagant lives. You know you contract the virus and if you don't take care of yourself then this virus can really wreak havoc on you but it is my belief and there is some scientific evidence to back this up that you can get rid of the virus within two weeks with vitamin C and other things I do not want to get into that conversation because we have had this argument before. Okay well just move on. Well you rudely interrupted me Yeah, just because you don't believe my science But all I've seen is the friends that I had they really died after they started to get treatment from the hospital That's when it started to go downhill for them. So that's a put that over on the side so this is an industry the AIDS industry then You know, I don't think it's meant to fix anybody and I think that there's a huge push underway And it started back in June coincidentally six weeks before Truvada

1:18:33 was approved by the FDA to be taken by people who do not have HIV. And it starts with our friend Hillary Clinton at the World AIDS Congress, AIDS2012.org where she is telling us exactly It is a commercial, she's telling us exactly what Truvada can do without actually saying it. So while I want to reaffirm my government's commitment... ...I'm also here to boost yours! This is a fight we can win We have already come so far Too far to stop now I wanna describe some of the progress we've made toward that goal and some of the work that lies ahead

1:19:19 Let me begin by defining what we mean by an AIDS-free generation. It is a time when, first of all virtually no child anywhere will be born with the virus. Secondly as children and teenagers become adults, they will be at significantly lower risk of ever becoming infected than they would be today no matter where they are living. That's right that is number two

Gilead Sciences, Truvada Pricing, Insurance Mandates

Gilead Sciences, the manufacturer of Truvada, faces scrutiny over the drug's $14,000 annual price tag and its potential inclusion in mandatory insurance coverage under the Affordable Care Act. While studies show varying efficacy rates, the drug is being positioned as a "vitamin-like" daily requirement for high-risk populations. The board of directors at Gilead includes individuals with ties to major insurance companies and Stanford University, suggesting a deeply entrenched corporate-political alliance.

gilead sciences· truvada· obamacare· stanford· pharmaceutical industry

1:20:01 If someone does acquire HIV, they will have access to treatment that helps prevent them from developing AIDS and passing the virus on to others. This is exactly what Truvada does! It does exactly this... And here's the propaganda in USA Today I'm gonna read you this article it's crazy By late this summer, the Food and Drug Administration could approve a widely used AIDS drug as the first pill to prevent transmission of HIV. The drug Truvada made by Gilead Sciences of Foster City California tied to Stanford

1:20:42 already is commonly used in combination with other drugs to treat patients with HIV infection. If approved, which it has been for HIV prevention and FDI advisory panel recommended in May It can be prescribed to healthy patients who are at high risk such as partners of people who have HIV AIDS and non-monogamous gay and bisexual men So, this is basically the entire world will be told you need to take this drug just in case. It's like the HPV scam You might as well I mean you know The condom could break or whatever From 12 to 112 Everyone will be on this thing They're pricing it at a hundred... I'm sorry At $14000 per year

1:21:34 So this is... Okay, let me just read a couple of little things that are... So Obamacare comes in. If you have a pre-existing condition, you get the drug but it's going to every single insurance company is going to be paying and it's not just gonna be you your wife your kids and your dog everyone's gonna be on Truvada 14 grand a year That sounds like it's a good one It's not a good one No, it's a good one if you're a shareholder in Gilead named after the Australian Prime Minister. So it has an effective

1:22:12 What's the word? I can't think of how to pronounce it. But anyway, the thing it does is reduces the risk of HIV infection by 75%. And in many cases... Oh! I'm seeing 90 here in the reports that I have. It's lies! Lies! So what they've done is they've effectively moved... Efficacy. It's a 42% efficacy which means if you use it twice you're going to get AIDS a second time. This bull crap Two studies were conducted with Truvada as PREP, which is their term meaning. So listen to what you just said if it's bull crap right and by the way everyone has to get tested before you actually are put on Truvada to know if you have if you have it or not so you get it either way. What you just said is very interesting how can the FDA approve this drug to stop people from spreading the AIDS virus

1:23:14 The reason is... These studies were conducted with Truvada. The reason is, because even if you get the AIDS virus you're not going to die immediately just stay on the Truvada You don't have to get a test ever again. The circle is complete This will be like taking your Flintstones in fact we'll have Flintstones Truvada Come on Timmy! Take your little Flintstone's Truvada when you grow up you'll know why This is a huge scam and everyone's in on it. Everybody! Go look at the board of directors for Gilead. It's all the insurance company guys, all of Stanford is there... this is huge And well of course we don't know who I mean We didn't know about this otherwise we would have bought stock in Gilead Tests will be mandatory

1:24:10 This is the, you have no idea how big this is. Screw Adderall, screw Lipitor, screw Vyvanse...this is the one! This IS THE ONE!!! And you know what? WOOHOO!!!! ANAL SEX HERE I COME!!!!! I mean this is going to be the biggest bonanza- What does Gilead stock? Can we still get in on this can we still buy in? I don't think people understand how massive this is Well, I'm trying to get to this day. You know? I'm on the site and I click on corporate governance and it's just sitting there And it won't deliver like a lousy website hmm I mean, I'm sure that the five people that listen to our show live of all clicked on it. That's swamped at the site but Yeah, nothing seems to let me tell me try so first thing we can do is sell these guys some some internet services and

Gilead Stock Performance, Insider Trading, HPV Vaccine Comparisons

Gilead Sciences' stock (GILD) saw a significant surge on the Nasdaq, doubling in value between January and July 2012, prior to the official FDA announcement regarding Truvada. This price action has led to allegations of insider trading by those aware of the impending approval. The aggressive push for Truvada is compared to the HPV vaccine mandates, with critics warning that long-term side effects or carcinogenic risks may eventually emerge.

1:25:06 No! Adam Curry podcasting school. Hey, everybody it's the how to take your pill and pound away podcast Let me see Gilead I'll just look up on Yahoo Finance. I'm going to this Nasdaq to look at 73 bucks a share let me take a look at the tech analysis of oh geez okay we kind of missed out on this January See they knew it! The bastards January before it started skyrocketing, before they made the announcement in July. It was at 37-38. Oh my goodness! It doubled? It doubled and then did an announcement but here's the good interesting part The announcement was made...it had already gone up by the way if you look at that long term chart from January to today You can see a weird

1:25:57 effect that took place around I guess the end of December last year or the first part of January where this stock skyrocketed and peaked. This is all people that knew what was going on, then it settled back down this is a classic insider trading thing but they've never do anything about it then by the time they made the announcement the stock was already up to 50 bucks so its gone from fifty to seventy five cents the announcement and uh... European Commission approves for HIV-1 infection in children, adolescents. And these guys... this is it! This is the bonanza! This is the one because you could have bought this baby in 1995 before the dot com crash which was not a thing yeah for two bucks mm-hmm so they essentially came out of nowhere as what you're saying that's what looks like yeah

1:26:48 Well, I don't know. It depends if they were working on it maybe...I don't know what the you don't know that some of these companies... It's a shell! It was just a shell but this thing it set up look at them mean you look at everyone Stanford Everyone's in there You know that are you kidding me man? This is just so this is such a bonanza and and anyone's gonna be it's like oh you want to move To this country you want a green card take a test Just we know if you have it or not and then our books and here's your Truvada vitamin pill That's okay $14,000 a year. A grand a month at best! A grand a month! John we can get... I mean this company is going to be pooping out dividends and well they'll find the risk is always with some of these crazy things that it turns out to be carcinogenic or something and then down the two bucks. No no listen to my thesis

1:27:43 I know your thesis, i heard it. You can't you know... It's like if you always catches up to them they always get caught the same thing is gonna happen with that HPV thing that you're always moaning about That thing is dangerous! Moanin' about? I'm just moaning, I'm not trying to protect anyone. You are a moaner! Oh man.. I'm just trying to protect women and girls and now I'm a moaner? Hmmmm.... You're moaning about this stuff I mean this is gonna be this is not gonna yeah I can't see people just spit. This is ridiculous! If they'd make it cost-effective, I mean Lipitor is relatively cheap. It was 10 bucks a pill at its height

1:28:25 I don't know how you're gonna have to get this down to ten bucks. Yeah, no John Lipitor Listen, you know on the steel see do not see connect all the dots we have the new health care insurance law It's not about better healthcare the healthcare insurance law guaranteed it's in science is in We're all good and no one can be excluded premiums are starting to go up and now oh Oh man, look what I you know.

Susan Rice Benghazi Controversy, Kelly Ayotte, 2016 VP Grooming

Ambassador Susan Rice continues to face criticism from GOP senators over her public comments regarding the Benghazi attack, which she attributed to a spontaneous demonstration. Amidst this controversy, Senator Kelly Ayotte of New Hampshire has emerged as a prominent critic, leading to speculation that she is being groomed as a potential 2016 Vice Presidential candidate. Analysts note that while Ayotte is telegenic, she currently lacks the polished speaking skills required for a national ticket.

susan rice· kelly ayotte· benghazi· republican party· 2016 election

1:30:08 So I didn't think much about it until i was watching this latest round of news about Susan Rice. Oh yeah, yeah. Now you have a clip and the Red Book, I mean you won't guess...I don't think But it's a pretty interesting one. I got a couple of clues, one is the rest...I think there was Susan Rice saga continues as a clip worth listening to and then I'll give you my Red Book item because it just kept bothering me until I finally...ugh! Duhh! I'm an idiot." In the case the intelligence assessment has evolved we stress that neither I nor anyone else in the administration intended to mislead the American people at any stage in this process And The White House had this to say

1:30:51 focus on, some might say obsession on comments made on Sunday shows seems to me and to many to be misplaced. GOP senators also complained that Rice neglected to ask key questions before telling the public what turned out to be wrong information That's troubling to me as well why she wouldn't have asked I'm the person that doesn't know anything about this i'm going on every single show And Wolf just moments ago the Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid released a statement very, very direct and pretty critical of those Republican senators who were critical of Susan Rice. Really defending Susan Rice and he was talking about the Republican senator saying that election is over it's time to drop these partisan political games and focus on the real challenges facing the nation. He said that these attacks on Susan Rice are unfounded and they don't jive with reality

1:31:49 Senator Joe Lieberman who's the chairman of the Homeland Security Committee came out of a separate meeting with Susan Rice and said that he finds her answers satisfactory. He said that it was up to him, he would vote for her for Secretary of State if she is nominated big F. Of course he doesn't have a vote because he is retiring at the end of year. He's retiring in the new Senate will do it alright thanks very much. Alright Wolf. By the way I said the new senate will do it oh yeah so they're nice little meme Now I don't know how far this is going to go and i think it's uh there's but I've noticed this one person that keeps cropping up and she she's also in the other clip that I have there which is Senator Collins Susan Collins no no no Kelly Aote from New Hampshire yes yes yes yes yeah She's about 6'5'' from the looks of her Really? Is she hot at home? Yeah, she towers over...she towers over the men. Is he hot? Whoever men she's with

1:32:47 She's a milfy type and she looks, she's videogenic. She is not necessarily photogenic but she is very telegenic and I think they're grooming her and putting in the red book to be vice president 2016 because they want a woman to balance the ticket. Is she Republican? Yes! She looks alot like my cousin, Cousin Allison. Yeah, she is very photogenic, very strong, strong woman And her wiki page does not tell us how tall she is? No, of course not. This is ridiculous we should know the height and weight of everybody Anyway... She's quite tall At least according to all these apparent midgets that are in the Senate she's a senator which is a better position than a representative to be in high office

1:33:45 And I think that, and I've noticed her showing up a lot over the last six months. I didn't think much about it the first time i saw her but now I saw her over this thing Now I fear they're grooming her and the reason they're grooming is because she really sucks as a speaker. Oh, she needs a little practice? It really sucks! She needs some practice... She needs A LOT of practice so they're putting her out there and we're gonna start seeing Kelly Ayotte or Ayotte however they pronounce it and she is going to be the you know they felt they got it wrong the first time when they ran that when they ran the European from Alaska Sarah Palin Palin because she's a gang she had a squeaky voice this one said this woman seems a lot sharper, but she is nervous when she speaks literally She's maybe she needs to get so they're gonna put her on Fox you're gonna see her all the time You know what? She needs. She need some five ants Yes I do yeah by events that'll that'll fix it right up and

CIA Talking Points, Al-Qaeda References, Benghazi Investigation

The CIA admitted to deleting references to Al-Qaeda from the Benghazi talking points, contradicting earlier claims that the FBI was responsible for the edits. This revelation has intensified the scrutiny of Susan Rice, who repeatedly stated that Al-Qaeda had been "decimated" during her media appearances. Senators argue that the omission of terror links provided a misleading impression to the American public about the nature of the consulate attack.

cia· fbi· al-qaeda· benghazi· susan rice

1:34:46 She might have kicks. No, I thought you were going to say what you should've said. The Curry Dvorak Consulting Company is what she needs! Yeah but that's a part of our curriculum is first you take your Vive-Ants And then we're gonna get started. I have a little cup, you know, with the pills. She'd probably be shaking like a leaf if she took that stuff. Yeah, it's a left tick. You can play the second clip where she has got the VP. The talking points she used in fact they talk about the acting director of the CIA saying that the FBI actually removed references to Al-Qaeda in the talking points

1:35:24 uh... to prevent compromising an ongoing criminal investigation however they say the senators say in this release that at four o'clock this afternoon cia officials contacted us and indicated that acting director morales misspoke in the earlier meeting the cia now says that it deleted the al-qaeda references not the fbi and they were unable to give us a reason why one of the things also about the al-qaeda being taken out it was not just this five sunday shows blaming the spontaneous demonstration that there wasn't uh... that it turns out there was never a demonstration but susan rice also said this which didn't sit well with one senator

1:36:03 President Obama said when he was running for president that he would refocus our efforts and attentions on Al-Qaeda. We've decimated al Qaeda, Osama bin Laden is gone. We have decimated al Qaeda, Osama bin Laden is dead." She said that al Qaeda was decimated in both of those interviews so that of course was a misleading impression to the American people about what happened at the consulate it's absurd to me to think you would omit the reference of al Qaeda what? So we didn't want Al-Qaeda off and particularly since it's very important that the American people not be left a misleading impression which is what was happened here. So now that at the end was Kelly Ayotte again. Can I play a little bit of her from the convention?

1:36:50 Yeah, you can't but I don't remember at the convention But when she does these things she's way too nervous. Yeah, but they keep pushing her in front of the camera So there's obviously somethings going on right let me uh... New Hampshire But i believe tonight we all share that view She is reading so it's easier As have generations of Americans before us Like most Americans our life changed after 9-11 Okay Contact her, call her immediately. She definitely needs the Curry Dvorak Consulting Group I mean that's not how you roll out a 9-11 reference woman so if you see... Well it may be a hopeless cause maybe she can't snap out of it but she does not perform well No but I will say

Egypt Blasphemy Sentences, Nakula Basili Nakula, Anti-Islam Video

A court in Cairo sentenced seven Egyptian Christians to death in absentia for their involvement in the anti-Islam video that sparked global protests in September. Among those condemned is Nakula Basili Nakula, who is currently serving a jail term in Los Angeles for probation violations. The sentences highlight a disconnect between international legal standards and the Egyptian judiciary's response to perceived insults against the Prophet Muhammad.

1:37:43 I think that people got really turned off by the slickness of Sarah Palin. She was too slick and you know to Pat and to You know, it's just too much too much too much. I think people are looking for a genuine experience They want a little nervous wrecked they don't want somebody shaking in their boots But if you see her show up with a tick then you'll know the curry DeVore a consulting group is on the case so what I don't understand how can today today actually happened yesterday but so now we know that the video was a fake it was all lie, it was all set up how can this report...how could this happen in Egypt? seven Egyptian Christians have been sentenced to death in their absence by court in Cairo for taking part in an anti-islam video that prompted violent protests throughout the world. The crude video made privately in California denigrated the Prophet Muhammad

1:38:37 Cast members have previously said they were duped into thinking it was an adventure drama. Among the condemned was Nakula Basili Nakula, who's currently serving a one-year jail term in Los Angeles for probation violations arising from his part in the video There were anti US protests and attacks on Western embassies throughout the Muslim world in September The judge in Cairo said the seven accused were convicted of insulting the Islamic religion through participating in producing and offering a film that insults Islam and its prophet. How does that work? I mean, did they not get the memo that the video didn't cause any of this? I don't understand how that works. Mixed messaging. They think that was interesting was this guy

1:39:19 Nakula, whatever that guy's name is. Nakula Nakula yeah. Nakula Nakula Nakula he is in jail for violations of probation from making the video or something? What was that? That's the guy who made the video but he wasn't allowed to use a false name because he had been on probation for identity theft it's irrelevant to the story why is a judge a judge in Cairo now saying that these guys are convicted to death This is the whole story is like what and then on MSNBC Joe Klein. Do you know this guy Joe Klein? You know him Yeah, he is that what does he the editor at News Time magazine He's a famous book writer mostly but I think he writes for time or newsweek one of them Morning Joe is my new source of entertainment

CHAPTER 27 / 46 Discussion

Joe Klein, Morning Joe, Media Propaganda

Time Magazine editor Joe Klein defended the accuracy of the original Benghazi talking points on "Morning Joe," leading to a heated exchange with co-host Mika Brzezinski. Klein maintained that the attack was a spontaneous demonstration by extremists, despite intelligence suggesting a planned terror operation. The segment is cited as an example of mainstream media figures continuing to propagate debunked narratives long after contradictory evidence has surfaced.

joe klein· mika brzezinski· morning joe· time magazine· benghazi

1:40:12 And so after all of this is said, he comes out and says this. The question with regard to Susan Rice would be this... Who hung her out to dry? By the way that's a question we ask and were pretty sure it was Hillary. When did we asked that question? Oh three weeks ago Three?! Guess again! Really has it been that long? Immediately Yeah oh has it been that long yeah you're right its probably been two months Yeah, anyway that's not what...that's not Joe Klein. Who allowed her to say basically the same thing for a period of nearly two weeks? Did no one, not General Petraeus, not anyone in the intelligence community pick up the phone? The talking points were accurate!

1:40:48 This is Joe Klein. For two weeks? They were absolutely accurate! Were they really? They were, it was a spontaneous demonstration by extremists... By Al-Qaeda? No not by al Qaeda but these militant... So was Al-Qaeda involved in this attack or not? Anybody can call themselves Al-Qaeda. This is interesting information. The militias that you have... Was Al-Qaeda involved in this attack or not? No, it was not. It's not really because that is a surprise to General Petraeus who said they knew immediately that it was a terror attack and the Al Qaeda was involved

1:41:24 Salafists were involved. You keep going back to Salafist and that's great! Salafists are militant extremists, Al-Qaeda was an organization organized by Osama Bin Laden So you're saying Al Qaeda was not involved? You gotta be accurate about these things. He is basically saying it was because of the video and Salafism and he's... It's crazy I mean the guy literally whatever Everyone is saying that these were terrorists and Al-Qaeda or whatever. He's like, no he's just propagating it That's why the Time Magazine propagating basically the lie from two months ago And then the next day because on this Morning Joe show The cohost is what's her name Mika? Mika Brzezinski She is a that evil douchebag Brzezinski's daughter

1:42:18 And I want to tease, I have a Brzezinski clip for the end of the show that is quite interesting. So this is the daughter of that douchebag Brzezinski and this is the next day which was two days ago. Gazi that are reasonable rational questions that most Americans have unless they're extreme left-wingers on Twitter or Are Joe Klein those are questions that are logical questions that need to be asked we love you, but seriously yesterday I'm not sure He says whatever Joe Klein was on Mika says the truth he was on the truth

1:43:02 What yeah that what he was saying yesterday wasn't sure watching this show. It's crazy You'll love it's very annoying though you you get tics like vibe ants be like Because the Mika Mika makes faces when she when she disagrees She'll make faces at the camera. She liked me She might be in how doll actually now that I think about it is something weird about her facial expressions so so the Brazil say true who is behind and why are they trying to I'm telling you the Susan Rice thing. There's something that this is a deeper issue than we even have got close to That's my point Something is there was something something with her and by the way, I would do we asked of Adam thing again? I mean, I've done it Derek guys said doing every show why The heck is this woman going to be Secretary of State? Is that the best thing

CHAPTER 28 / 46 Discussion

Hillary Clinton, Susan Rice, State Department Succession

The potential nomination of Susan Rice as Secretary of State is viewed by some as a "quid pro quo" for her taking the public heat during the Benghazi scandal. Theories suggest that Hillary Clinton may want a "stooge" in the State Department to maintain her influence and protect her 2016 presidential ambitions. Critics argue that Rice lacks the necessary appeal and qualifications, describing her as an arrogant "twerp" compared to previous female secretaries like Madeleine Albright.

hillary clinton· susan rice· state department· benghazi· 2016 election

1:43:56 Obama can do. And she is a weird, twerpy woman who's very arrogant I don't know... She's twerpy! Yeah. She's a twerp! Hello, and she's arrogant and weird And she I don't see why she so important that she has to have this job or why? She's even qualified for well the only thing I can come up with is That it was a quid. This is Occam's razor theory quid pro quo is Hey Hillary whoever like listen If you jump on this grenade, if you put your butt right on this thing as it explodes and you calm everybody the F down I'll make you Secretary of State bitch! That's the only thing i can think of. Because she did at that... Let's recall what happened This thing happened She went out she calmed everybody down And then just before the election we had Superstorm Sandy

1:44:52 So that was how it got off the radar. So first we had a calm down period and then in the weekend, the three days leading up to the weekend just before Tuesday of the elections when everyone was going to go balls-to-the-wall, it's gonna be all out We're gonna nail this Benghazi thing to the president and make him look like a douche and liar and whatever Superstorm Standy hits harp induced That's how it went. So I think she got a quid pro quo and you know, and she knows enough that if she does not get the nomination that she'll say all right maybe i should go write my book now so she... Well then she'd be killed but... But she's in well okay well let's way back let's back up on this because we have there's obviously a bunch of unclear theories at work one

1:45:50 Is she Hillary's pick or was Hillary trying to screw her over by setting her up this way? That's also two, by the way. Yeah well that's hard...that's a hard one to answer I'm not sure..I think that if i were Hillary oh man! I would have so much snatch If I were Hillary I would want to be very careful of Susan Rice Because why I'm she's not let me answer the jury answer the question if she is Secretary of State for four years then come 2016 She might be interesting for some positions that Hillary might be in are you kidding? Me this is not even within the realm of possibility The woman is unappealing excuse me Ronald Reagan was a cowboy actor

1:46:46 and became president. He was a good-looking man and he knew how to act. Susan Rice is a twerp, she's a little... She's a black woman and it's perfect. When she got her hair tied back very presidential like Arnold Schwarzenegger wasn't... She could barely speak! Arnold Schwarzenegger was an Austrian bodybuilder who screwed the help and he was governor of California. Kelly Ayotte, who we mentioned a second has better presence than Susan Rice. Right but she's a Republican and Susan Rice will be a Democrat. No no this is not possible! Okay

1:47:24 Just like the idiots, we've heard them all, the pundits that went on and on about how Condoleezza Rice. It's funny they have to have these same last names was she would have been a great candidate for president there's no chance that anybody would vote for her for president but this twerpy woman who is just annoying I don't see the threat. And, again, I don't see Hillary finding her to be a threat." Okay! Maybe it was just a lesbian thing? Well... Just like an anger thing or

1:48:06 Maybe, maybe, or because they do have a relationship and Susan Rice she was basically mentored by Madeline Albright who of course you know very strong ties to Hillary as well so maybe it was hey you know. You think it's the gay mafia? Can I answer the question Maybe Hillary wants to continue to run state while she's preparing for the presidency and the way you do that is Let's face it All you need to do is get on the airplane and wave and then go pass the message to whoever your meeting in whatever country Basically install the pipelines. Do this do that? She wanted her stooge in the State Department she said look, you're gonna take this hit and

CHAPTER 29 / 46 Discussion

Susan Rice Career, Brookings Institute, Stanford University

Susan Rice's professional background includes serving as a Brookings Institute fellow and Assistant Secretary of State for African Affairs during the Bill Clinton administration. A Rhodes Scholar with a doctorate from Oxford, Rice has deep ties to the Clinton political machine and was mentored by Madeleine Albright. Her career trajectory is compared to that of Condoleezza Rice, noting the coincidence of both women having ties to Stanford University and the National Security Council.

susan rice· bill clinton· stanford· oxford· brookings institute

1:48:54 All right, I'll make sure. I will make sure that you become Secretary of State and then you're good to go now. OK, let's take a look at some some book of knowledge information. She's a former Brookings Institute fellow. Why? She's the current United States ambassador. She served on the staff of the National Security Council and as assistant secretary of state for African affairs during Bill Clinton second term So she's a Clinton, so she is in the Clinton administration. Yes. So she's part of the Clinton mob? Mm-hmm. Isn't that exactly what you'd want? What is her... She went to Stanford another Stanford woman just like Condoleezza Rice which is another weird coincidence if you ask me Who's also a twerp now that's a twerp

1:49:42 She received a... twerps to me are small diminutive characters. Uh, Condoleezza Rice is pretty tall this woman is a twerp she's small dinky How do you know? How do you know how tall she is I've seen her stat- You see her in the crowd they have a bunch of bodyguards around here She's like the little bitty one in the middle she's a twerp It's not even a book of knowledge A Truman scholar should know height in here but it would have been I'm guessing 5'3 Truman scholarship, graduated the BA in history elected to Phi Beta Kappa. Okay so she's smart went took a Rhodes Scholarship went to New College Oxford where she got a Master of Philosophy and Doctorate of Philosophy Can we move on? I don't need to read her whole wiki page i'm sure that we can do that on our own time

1:50:27 I'm telling you there's something in here. Something doesn't make any sense to me! Why is my theory so hard to chew for you? Hillary wants to continue to run the State Department, so she can continue to hook all her oil buddies up with pipelines in the right place... Because there were a million different ways she could have gone with these five Sunday morning shows with the big lie. The whole thing doesn't make sense that she would have done this, that way! It makes her look like an idiot or a liar, part of some bigger conspiracy. And why would Hillary think this is a good idea? Is Hillary that stupid or she thought it was going to work? It was her personnel! It was her department! It was her responsibility! She had to throw someone in front of her! She needed a block! She's not gonna go on the show and say all this crap

1:51:25 She needed a sacrificial lamb and this is perfect because the minute people start bitching about Rice lying, oh woman sexism racism they throw that stuff up I mean come on it's very obvious it was not a well-planned thing because It was never supposed to happen that way. It was supposed to be a kidnapping hostage situation the guy was not supposed to die This we already know, so they were grasping at straws. What are you gonna do? I got no straw...I'll grab some rice! Throw some rice. I think it's nursing. Okay, but I'm not gonna- I just do not.. I'm not buying it. I just think there is something that we don't know that would explain the whole thing and we'd know a piece of the puzzle which is fake kidnapping but there's something else missing as far as I am concerned with this woman Well um

1:52:23 You cannot discount the fact that she is the UN ambassador and was a part of the legislation for bringing down Gaddafi, for setting this whole thing up in the first place. I think she's on the inside! She is not a total idiot! She knows what's going on. She knows where the bodies are buried and you know... This is..I think she really took one for the team And it's gonna have no problem. Look who else they're talking about for the State Department? John Kerry? Oh please! The guy is a lurch, he's a moron, he got sawdust in his head These people are all stupid You're making an intellectual argument on whether she can be Secretary of State or not Anyone can do that you could do that you'd be great Just pour some Z-Quil down your gullet

1:53:12 And you're on the plane and you get off and you wave, and you go sit next to the guy. By the way foreign ministers, Secretary of State women! Women's always... We got Cathy Ashton. That started with Clinton and Albright there wasn't one before then now it's all women. What did women take over? I'm telling you it's that gay cabal taking over Well, one thing's for sure. It is only this type of conversation that you can get on the NOA Agenda Show where we free will... If you want to call it a conversation argument I don't think it's an argument No, no its exchange We don't have to agree and that would be annoying

Moon Landing Skepticism, Elitist Donations, Norwegian Hams

A donation from Roy Pingle in Brooklyn sparked a discussion on the show's perceived political leanings and the "elitist" tone of certain listener contributions. In Scandinavia, Hans Peter Fjeld from Oslo checked in as a new ham radio operator (LA9STA), noting the rigorous testing standards in Norway. The segment also features a "teaser" regarding Adam Curry's long-standing questions about the validity of the Apollo moon landings.

TSA Pat-Downs, Seattle Airport, Premium Line Tactics

A detailed account of a TSA pat-down at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport describes the process as a "body massage" with "valet service" for carry-on items. The speaker advocates for choosing the pat-down over the body scanner, noting it only adds a few minutes to the security process. Additionally, an anecdote from Austin Bergstrom Airport suggests that travelers can often use the premium security line with a coach ticket simply by acting with confidence.

tsa· seattle· austin· magnetometer· body scanner

2:15:23 $50 and he has a I do have a story. Please continue to tell people to stop going through the dang naked body scanner So I went on to up north and again went to Oakland to the middle Line at the southwest and just a magnetometer nobody cares now can answer your question did you go through the priority line as instructed? You forgot, didn't you? You ask this every time and every time I say the same thing. And i'm going to say it again...you have to be an idiot to go through that line because they shut you over into a body scanner! And wait....and two.....didn't I say this on The Sunday Show?...and two there was no line what difference does it make so in Seattle they don't have the express line So I got on the regular line but then again there was no line

2:16:12 But this time they were, I couldn't find. There was one that looks like they were sending half the people through the magnetometer and there's some girl TSA go pointing this way you go left you go right you go left you go right you go left and they're running people to the two machines so I figure out we gotta get lucky so I got a time it just right So I hit towards the magnetometer she says no no no you've gotta over do this thing. Ugh! So then I gotta be, I gotta go for the pat down And I have to say that of all the places you get patted down and people should just do this, Seattle is very good. They bring somebody over right away he's very apologetic and he gives you a pretty good body massage. He's kind of rubbing it down every which way checking the shoulders doing the whole thing. A little tense up there! And then did they... Did you get the valet service where they carried your things from the belt? Yep Isn't that nice isn't it? I love when you get the massage and the valet service

2:17:05 Yep, they brought all the stuff over because I can't touch it. No don't touch don't touch I love it because normally if you send your stuff through the x-ray scanner, you're on that end. You have a choice. You can either try and dress really quickly and put your shoes on or your belt in your jacket while stuff is piling up behind you when people are looking at you annoyed. Or you can gather your stuff go over to someplace way in the back if you could find a place to set your stuff down there's never enough benches so I really like this third option which is hey would you please carry my stuff for me thank you And you get to dress nice and slowly in that area there. You take your time, you know?

2:17:46 I took a one. That's fine, but it really probably didn't add even three minutes to the whole process. So I don't see what is a big deal so Juan was here for and he went back Monday. The Christina's move on Christina's boyfriend. One one one year your son in law yes and he is He's Mexican with long black hair and a leather jacket and I say OK at Austin Bergstrom Airport And I'm like, you're going to go through the premium line. And I said don't be looking around like and it just hold your head up like you are a first class passenger and he's like really? I said yeah, do it! Do it! Do it! And lo and behold the Mexican with a leather jacket in long black rock n roll hair no problem not a single question right through the premium line with his coach ticket

Explosives Testing, TSA Theater, Fertilizer Residue

TSA agents use swabbing techniques to check for explosive residue, such as ammonium nitrate, which can be triggered by common lawn fertilizers. Despite these rigorous checks, critics argue that the TSA has never caught a terrorist and that the entire process is "security theater." The discussion highlights the inconsistency of the tests, as individuals who have recently been to a gun range often pass without triggering the alarms.

tsa· explosives· ammonium nitrate· fertilizer· security theater

2:18:38 Telling you right. This is the way to go and I'd say that is right on one for doing it there was no pressure there Your girlfriend's dad is like good So No, I thought that concluded oh no, I'm sorry we have two guys left That's where I say thanks to sir Peter totes who donates $50 on lots regular occasion Shad rich in Seattle who apparently is a agent who pats you down. It could be, it could be the Shad. And by the way when I got patted down they took the gloves off and then they ran him to the machine yeah that's to check for gunpowder oh this is cool i had a long chat with the TSA guy afterwards asking what are we looking for? After I have sex with them I just want to go I don't want to talk well I thought you did used to have a smoke but so I had a long chat about what they're looking for with explosives and he says and I said then what happens and gave me the whole process

2:19:37 if you want to hear it. So, they... If they catch this thing, beep-beep-beep the thing goes off then they have to do a second check on everything and what usually triggers it is like somebody, if they've been fertilizing their lawn the day before, they get ammonium nitrate. Oh yeah! There's all kinds of things although... And just goes through What I don't understand is that if I've been in the gun range a day before nothing ever beeps and I gotta have residue all over me He says that usually gun range does cause a beep. Not on me and then they have to talk to you And then I said what happens if you don't pass the secondary test because they take your side in yak with you Yeah, right, right, right? Yeah, and then it guess although I didn't seem to happen a lot The way I see not a lot of people are

2:20:24 Bringing bombs into the airport. The way I see it let me see no one has bought a brought a bomb They've caught no terrorist ever that's the way, I see it this is a complete stupid theater theater alright Thanks everybody we appreciate Dvorak org slash and a all of the love and Please remember us as you support the best podcast in universe We are here twice a week, and this is all we do except for write a lot of books that we forget to publish But otherwise word were really more really.

Israel Food Box Charity, Fox News Ads, Sean Hannity

A recurring advertisement on Sean Hannity's show solicits $25 donations for food boxes to help "desperately needy" families in Israel. Critics claim the operation is questionable, alleging that the boxes contain only five dollars' worth of food. The discussion contrasts the charitable focus on Israel with the economic struggles and hunger issues present within the United States.

israel· gaza· fox news· sean hannity· charity

2:23:40 Alright, I got a clip that relates to that. The $25 food box for Israel Each of these food boxes represents the gift of life for people here in Israel who are in desperate need These are very difficult times for Israel and the Jewish people as the government spends more and more of its resources for battling terrorism. Every week, more and more people come and you can see the desperation for food. This $25 food box will provide one desperately needy family

2:24:33 here in Israel, with food, with hope and with a note inside each of these saying that it's from Christians and Jews in America. Who seek to bless them Israel and its people need your help now? You can make a life-changing difference by calling and saying that you will give a $25 food box to help a family in need in Israel Thank you, and God bless you for your support Well it I know that's bad in Israel. He didn't know what was that bad So this is running on Fox constantly. Oh really? Must be local. Mostly on Hannity's show, so I'm...so you know if I want to don't want to say that people shouldn't be charitable but you know we have people in the United States that could use a $25 box of food but somebody looked into this by the way and this is some bogative operation. That's your word. They put five bucks worth of food in it

Bibi Netanyahu Parody, Dutch Television, Media Satire

A Dutch talk show, "De Wereld Draait Door," aired a heavily edited clip of Bibi Netanyahu that appeared to show him claiming to target schools and hospitals to maximize civilian casualties. The satirical segment was intended as humor but drew criticism for its provocative nature and potential to incite anti-Israel sentiment. The hosts discuss the context of left-wing broadcasting in Holland and the historical sensitivity surrounding Jewish issues in the region.

2:25:34 So I do know that the economy is crap, people are starving in Israel. They have protests... Mostly in Gaza! In the Netherlands speaking of Israel a Dutch television show called De Veerle Drij Door As the world turns although it's not the soap opera, but that's kind of so it's like and the world keeps a show yeah It's like an act is a talk show. He kind of daily you know actualities morning show Evening Show early evening show Ellen show no it's nothing like one dude And like yeah, it's kind of popular they re-edited and broadcast BB net and Yahoo! and Hillary Clinton

2:26:25 You know, the famous where she came to settle everything and to make truce. I don't know the context of why they did this but here's how they re-edited Bibi Netanyahu. Well, we do not share your concern about civilian casualties at all. In fact we're conducting these surgical operations against schools mosques hospitals universities children and one of the things that were doing is trying to maximize the number of civilian casualties

2:27:04 I know that you understand this, but if not this is something that i don't have to explain to Americans President Obama and the international community. Welcome to Jerusalem. So... Okay hold on stop stop stop Stop! Clip of the week Oh wow But I had nothing to do with it I'm just playing it Ah you found it You found a clip Well we dont have week ill jus take day Tip of the Day Are you kidding me? And that was on television. Why?! That was an edited clip, clearly edited to make the guy look like an a-hole! To make him look like a horrible Palestinian hating... Was this a joke? Is this a comedy show? Yeah this is their version of humor I guess Wow it's pretty funny but it I don't think it worked well okay so what supposed to be funny

2:28:02 The show has these, they do this a lot where they do something that probably sounded hilarious when they were thinking of it and then they put it on the air and it's like what? What have you done?! And it's like Jew hatred in Holland is not big. I mean it's not really like a big thing but uh... You know the-I think during like the Second World War there was you know like hate, Anne Frank this whole thing It's not a big like, like thing to do So I'm not quite sure this is a left wing if i'm not mistaken, left-wing kind of commie broadcast organization who put the show on. But interesting right? Well what we have and part of this and I think it's his own mind control because we have the big vote coming up

Palestinian UN Upgrade, Ramallah Celebrations, Statehood Status

The Palestinian Authority is seeking an upgrade to "non-member observer state" status at the UN General Assembly, with France announcing its support for the resolution. Celebrations in Ramallah's Arafat Square reflect the anticipation of this indirect recognition of statehood. The "upgrade" terminology is compared to airline travel, where Palestinians are waiting to see if their status will change at the international "gate."

2:28:52 In fact, I believe... hold on let me see. I have a little clippage of it Yes here we go Now major boost for the Palestinian bid to upgrade its status at the UN General Assembly Hey Palestine you've been upgraded to business class come on in Yeah this is hilarious Come on in, you got an upgrade upgrade France you have even more space announced it will be voting in favor of the resolution that Palestinians have been rallying in Arafat Square and Ramallah in anticipation of the vote in New York now if it passes and it just needs a simple majority to do so

2:29:30 Palestinians will be granted indirect UN recognition of statehood. There's a great sense of anticipation, this is the scene in Ramallah at the moment A lot people are out and about waiting to see if it's going to change their status there which could grant them This is literally like waiting at the gate for your upgrade changing...the people outside like hey! Is my name on the board yet? Oh man, I haven't been upgraded. This is the great dilemma of a traveler today is should I wait for the upgrade and not be able to pack my luggage into the plane because I'll be last guy on? Or... or just get on like a slave. Just go on in hell with it! Yeah. I love that they're calling an upgrade that's just-I love that That's really good It's really-that's the way to roll man

Cold War Moon Nuke Plot, NASA Mars Mission, Wolf Blitzer

CNN's Wolf Blitzer reported on a declassified Cold War-era plot by the United States to potentially detonate a nuclear device on the moon to intimidate the Soviet Union. Skeptics argue the story is "mind control" designed to reinforce the belief that the U.S. had the capability to reach the moon in the 1950s. Simultaneously, NASA clarified that there is no "special announcement" regarding the Mars mission, despite recent public excitement.

nasa· moon· mars· wolf blitzer· cnn

2:30:23 Okay, here is a second half of the show very important stuff. Oh Yeah Where is it? Here it is did you know about the comet coming by no that's not important It sounds preposterous but get this the United States actually hatched to plot during the Cold War to possibly nuke the moon You have not read this story about new clip of the day You need to see Blitzer's face when he does that. Nuke the moon! I'm going to play it again, but then i want you to listen to the setup of the package. I'm not gonna play the package because with an 11 minute package this has been all over the internet and there is a reason for this. It sounds preposterous but get this The United States actually hatched a plot during the cold war to possibly nuke the moon

2:31:18 Brian Todd's got the latest on this bizarre story. I'm tempted to say it, and i will what were they thinking? Well Wolf all sorts of wild ideas were floating around in the halls of government back in the 1950s It was a height of the Cold War security scares all around American leaders felt they needed to give a jolt to the Soviet Union so at that time this didn't seem so outlandish So here is what going on with this because... Ok wait wait wait Wait! What is my segment?! I gotta ask you question But I am yeah You can be on a roll, but I just want to point out that we couldn't get out of the atmosphere in the 50s. We couldn't even launch a satellite how are we going to nuke the moon in the fifties? Well thank you very much John because this whole report is rife with all kinds of bullcrap and of course we still can't really get past the Van Allen belts but that would be my personal problem that I have with the entire moon landing only a few years after this bogative report apparently

2:32:16 propagate some meme. This is meant, again this is mind control it's meant to make you laugh which worked so your like haha because we couldn't have done that which makes you think that we actually have been there this is why because we had yeah no this is too enforce that we have been there in force and force and force this is why this story has been planted at the same time only last week I said, how long and how many times we have to listen to this bull crap from NASA? And now they come out and they say no. No, there was nothing...no special announcement There was no special announcement We're just excited about the whole mission to Mars Would you answer that and tell them that you're doing a show Who is that?

Leveson Inquiry, UK Press Regulation, Media Hoaxes

The Leveson Inquiry in the United Kingdom has recommended the creation of a non-industry regulatory body to oversee the press, with the power to issue fines up to $500,000. Prime Minister David Cameron has indicated a willingness to accept the findings, which stem from the widespread phone-hacking scandal. Critics warn that this move grants the government unprecedented control over the media, potentially threatening press freedom in "Gitmo Nation East."

Anyway, most important thing after the show is done today besides the In The Morning Net which we'll do on EchoLink Node 3373 I will be reading through the Levinson inquiry which has been published by the British government this was of course based upon the phone hacking scandal now here's what... here's a report that has been laid out but i've only gotten the headlines so far so im going to delve into it

2:44:24 The recommendation is that there should be a non-industry group, i.e., the government who are going to be in charge of what the press does and how they handle themselves and this group will be able to hand out fines in the amount of one half million dollars per pop And so essentially the press in Gitmo Nation East will be controlled by the government That's not just the BBC it's all of the press So this is going to be a very, and of course they have to adopt it but Cameron has already said we will accept.

2:45:00 what the Levinson inquiry because of course everyone is has been implicated in this including Cameron and Cameron was all over this with Rebecca and his boy there. There's no, believe me for these sorts of things there's no better solution to handing control over to the government you can't do anything that's the obvious thing to do What could possibly go wrong? Hand control to the government and your end your done you're good you're going to go fantastic Alright, do you want to wrap up with any of your clips of your eight clips that you haven't played?

A montage by Conan O'Brien revealed that local news stations across the country used identical scripts to report on Cyber Monday, emphasizing shopping from "the desk or the couch."

The show concludes with a sign-off from Austin and Silicon Valley, promising a return on Sunday for further media deconstruction.
