Tucker Carlson interviews a blogger from Climate Progress regarding Bill Nye's comments about waiting for older climate deniers to die. During the segment, Carlson appears to concede that humans burning fossil fuels are a primary cause of global warming, which the hosts find surprising. The discussion critiques the use of the word "denier" as a political tool to delegitimize scientific debate.

John Podesta, founder of the Center for American Progress, is now a White House advisor leading a review on big data and privacy. The hosts argue that the recent meeting between Obama and tech CEOs is a PR move to "snooker" the public into believing their privacy is being protected despite the companies' data-driven business models.

The "Satellite Sentinel Project," publicly fronted by George Clooney to monitor Sudan, is revealed to be funded by the Center for American Progress (CAP) via the "Enough Project." CAP was founded by John Podesta, a top advisor to President Obama. The hosts argue that Clooney is not spending his own money on the project, which serves as a tool for the administration's foreign policy agenda.

Adam Curry recounts attending a screening of the documentary "Escape Fire" with whistleblower Wendell Potter. He describes how the event was hosted by "Doctors for America," an organization linked to the Center for American Progress. Curry argues the film's message was hijacked to promote the Affordable Care Act and discourage voting for Mitt Romney.
