Topic: Miss Venezuela

Adam Curry and John C. Dvorak discuss the Miss Universe 2013 pageant held in Moscow, Russia. Dvorak notes that Donald Trump was in the front row and that Miss Venezuela, Gabriela Isler, won the competition over Miss Spain. The hosts tease a deeper analysis of the event's production and political undertones later in the broadcast.

John C. Dvorak provides a detailed breakdown of the Miss Universe 2013 pageant in Moscow, suggesting the contestants may be "spy hookers" or intelligence assets. He critiques the production quality and the "burlesque" style of the bikini segment. The hosts mock the involvement of NBCUniversal and Donald Trump in promoting the event as a serious competition.

Steven Tyler of Aerosmith served as a judge in Moscow and asked Miss Venezuela, Gabriela Isler, about her biggest fear. Isler's victory is discussed, with Dvorak noting her "monster smile" and the abrupt ending of the broadcast. The hosts conclude their pageant coverage, noting the high level of physical attractiveness among all contestants.

A brief aside mentions the Miss Venezuela beauty competition observed on the Dish Network. The hosts joke about the "poodle prize" (a Dutch term for a consolation prize) and the physical appearance of the contestants.

The victory of Miss Venezuela in the Miss Universe pageant is analyzed through the lens of her position as the final contestant in the lineup. A contestant from Iceland was favored by the hosts but eliminated early, which they attribute to her appearing near the beginning of the broadcast. The segment links the "rigged" nature of pageants back to the earlier discussion on electronic voting machines.

Miss Universe Diana Mendoza visited the Guantanamo Bay detention facility and described the experience as "relaxing and calm." Her comments regarding the beauty of the water and the facility's atmosphere were criticized as a public relations effort to soften the image of the controversial military prison.
