John C Dvorak: You guys are working for us. Adam curry
Jhansi Dvorak. It's
Adam Curry: Thursday, March 2 2023. District award winning
combination media assassination episode 1534.
Unknown: This is no agenda
Adam Curry: tickling your amygdala and broadcasting live
from the heart of the Texas hill country here in the region
number six in the morning, everybody. I'm Adam ferry
John C Dvorak: from Northern Silicon Valley where I await the
next episode of Picard. I'm John C. Dvorak.
Adam Curry: The most emailed comment on the last show was
without a doubt the you got it all wrong about Star Trek Star
Wars and Total Recall the woman with three boobs it's amazing
how much attention our producers paid to that kind of stuff
John C Dvorak: that they do know they got nothing else to do
Adam Curry: clearly. Why do anything else it's that's what
you you got to set curry straight on the three boob lady
that's important people. Thank you for all your your
information. We had a massive hailstorm at five this morning
with coil quarter sized hail quarter size it
John C Dvorak: should I say this like like the size of a small
bouncing ball yes
Adam Curry: yes and we have a metal roof so that woke us
John C Dvorak: Let me guess You got a woke
Adam Curry: we got a very woke the dog was even freaked out the
dog like slept next to my bed which she never does. On my side
never she never sleeps never even comes into our bedroom.
She's like who has a huge dog holes or shivering a
John C Dvorak: lot of dogs don't like these kinds of noises and I
wonder is like the worst form?
Adam Curry: Oh no, it was cracking thunder and then and
then you know some of the hail would hit the patio and then
bounce against the glass you know it's just this morning when
I walked Phoebe that we're still clusters of a much smaller now
like marble size of hail it was just one of those micro bursts
right right over Fredericksburg,
John C Dvorak: Texas hail can be it can be damaging to cars, very
damaging.
Adam Curry: very damaging. I wanted to mention for those of
you who found us during COVID and are happy that we we helped
you stay sane. Stay with us. There's a lot of stuff that
you're being you're being psychologically manipulated
over. I think that we can we can keep you on the trough and
narrow to that trough the trough and narrow what is no What is it
the path of the straight and straight and narrow? Yeah,
straight narrow. There you go. Because what Epstein every other
podcast do this week. We were right. We told you was from the
lab. We were right.
Unknown: We were right and no one is
Adam Curry: seeing the bigger picture.
John C Dvorak: You mean the bigger picture that we said it
was from the lab and in 2020?
Adam Curry: No, the bigger picture being I mean, yeah, we
could play clip after clip after clip and show that we were right
within two weeks. But that's not the point. The point is, this is
a pivot to China. And if you if you just look at what we have,
we've got a we got spy balloons COVID lab tick tock. Teaming up
with Russia, fentanyl. It's all about China. This is the pivot
this in oh and no one is spared in this. CNBC laid it all out.
Oh well. The
Unknown: reminder today was directed towards Elon Musk. The
Tesla founder been retweeting posts promoting the theory that
Coronavirus originated from a Wuhan lab. Well the issue is
very sensitive here in China. And so the Communist Party paper
The Global Times warned on its social media site that he could
be breaking the pot of China. This is a Chinese saying that's
similar to biting the hand that feeds you go this morning comes
Adam Curry: as breaking the pot. I use officials
John C Dvorak: both pot yes it she bet what she said breaking
the pot that feeds you know
Adam Curry: breaking the pot is a Chinese proverb similar to
biting the hand that
Unknown: feeds you the pot of China
Adam Curry: back a little bit breaking breaking the pot. This
is already paid for the Global
Unknown: Times warned on its social media site, that he could
be breaking the pot of China. This is a Chinese saying that's
similar to biting the hand that feeds you. And this warning
comes as Chinese officials, both on a high level as well as on a
lower level of the government are really pulling out all the
stops to try to attract us investment into China. And the
directive has come all the way from the top from President Xi
Jinping who has been saying that there should be greater effort
to attract more and welcome more foreign capital as well as
foreign investment on a local level. officials have been
eagerly trying to reach out to international companies touting
how they're relaunching several events around the region and
despite matching delegations prioritizing trade shows in the
US and Europe, cities, also, including Shanghai, have
announced that they're going to be having a foreign Talent
Recruitment drives. They do, though, have a lot of work to
do. The international business sentiment has been quite shaky
in the past year, because of the zero COVID protocols. The sour a
US sorry, the slowing Chinese economy, as well as the
political climate. American executives, in particular Joe
are really nervous ahead of that select committee hearing. This
is a new committee that's focused on China. And nobody
here wants to be called in
Adam Curry: new. Nobody wants to be seen as a trader,
collaborating with China rushes over man brushes out, brushes,
yesterday's news,
John C Dvorak: we'll see. But you might concern with this
latest thing about the Wuhan lab is that Mike Pompeo said it came
from the Wuhan lab during the Trump administration.
Adam Curry: I happen to have the clip.
John C Dvorak: Play that, please.
Unknown: Secretary Pompeo, so that he has strong evidence
that it did come from the virology lab, we've been
reporting this every Sunday, by the way, from early on, you also
said that you saw evidence, can
you tell us anything about the intelligence,
but we have a lot of information. And it's not good.
But you know, the worst of all, whether it came from the lab or
came from the batch, okay, it all came from China. And they
should have stopped it. They could have stopped at that
source. I call it the source. Right there. They made a
decision to allow it to escape its borders. I don't know
if they made the decision, but it got out of control. I think
more likely it got out of control.
Senator Kahn said that
they didn't want the
Adam Curry: this is an interesting clip as to why I
chose this one. Because Trump is is almost kind of pushing back
against Pompeo, ex CIA at this point. And saying, Well, you
know, whatever it came from China let it happen. Trump isn't
even blink, pushing it on China as as like a unintentional bio
leak or anything, which was really much more his position.
Although manipulated by the media,
Unknown: Chinese economy to contract 20% and the rest of the
world to contract 2%. So
we were beating them very badly before this, we were beating
them between the tariffs and other things we were doing. And
we were going up and they were having a very bad year, they
were having the worst year they've had in 56 years.
gestures on the street. And they weren't well, and even beyond
that. And we were really doing well. And that is a theory. But
here's what I know for sure. They didn't allow this whole
thing. They didn't allow people to go into China, but they did
allow them to go out to the world including the United
States. That's why Europe is a mess. That's why look at look at
these countries who rushes having a hard time.
Adam Curry: So quite a different story back then. But why?
John C Dvorak: Again, let's go back to this that was like the
news cycle back in the day to over two years ago. And this was
and then it was I don't know I thought it was I thought it was
concluded that it was from the lab and then the next thing you
know this comes out just recently as though it's all
news. And then you have like you said your podcast was going on
we told you so. What are you talking about? This is old.
Adam Curry: Yeah, it's just being read the mind in my mind
is just being resurrected at this level. Why?
John C Dvorak: Why resurrect Oh yours? China, China, target
China,
Adam Curry: China. Yeah, it's all about China. Now. We've got
to blame China.
John C Dvorak: Blaming China for that little water under the
bridge. It seems to me
Adam Curry: No, no, it's just it's adding adding to the
everything. Okay. Are you going to tell me that you don't see
the pivot to China? Everything Is Everything is moving
throughout China or China doing this. China's doing that. We
have a new house panel. Whoa, it's all about China. China is
no good. There's something going on with China. This is the pivot
60% of the news is about China. China
John C Dvorak: says the news is not about China. That's what I'm
seeing. Most definitely have to news is about Murtaugh
Adam Curry: now. What are you watching? You put that in the
newsletter if
John C Dvorak: you go to Google news.com You'll see their top
headlines about this trial in South Carolina that nobody cares
about but they're playing up every which way
Adam Curry: Well, surely you understand why.
John C Dvorak: Yes, a distraction but they just
common. It's a trend stretch
Adam Curry: to true crime drama. It has been it has been Nancy
Grace has been pushing this and that and the Netflix special is
coming out.
John C Dvorak: Let's head to the next flip. I thought of Netflix
special was out
Adam Curry: there promoting it heavily now what was out or not.
It's all for ratings. It has nothing to do with. And people
are
John C Dvorak: just whether it's with a news mostly concentrates
on getting people to watch TV.
Adam Curry: Yeah, end to end.
John C Dvorak: I'm not saying this. I mean, there's they're
targeting China for sure. But I don't see a quote unquote pivot.
Adam Curry: No, I do and it's and here it is. It's about this
this panel. This House panel, and the main thing the pivot is
this is what is occupying people's minds is tick tock.
That is that is a continuous hammering of China bad Congress
enjoys a rare bipartisan moment today when lawmakers come
together to address China coming together. Oh, no. And be our
congressional
Unknown: correspondent Deirdre
Walsh reports. Wisconsin Republican Mike Gallagher chairs
a new house committee created to put a spotlight on the threats
posed by China. He says a recent news story made that job a
little easier.
A Chinese spy balloon drifting over the country, and circling
our nuclear ICBM facilities has a way
Adam Curry: this is a lie. This thing wasn't circling anything.
Remember, it was just floating around since when was circling
around ICBM facilities. That's just a lie. There's like they
passed over them before now it was circling. Oh, yeah, it
stopped in a circle
Unknown: over the country somehow circling our nuclear
ICBM facilities has a way of bringing the threat close to
home,
Illinois Congressman Raja krishnamoorthi. The top Democrat
on the panel says his constituents already feel the
impact of China's influence.
Everyone seems to have their own stories, whether they are a
small business person or whether they are concerned about the
crackdown on dissent, or human rights.
Both lawmakers want to lay out the economic and national
security threats posed by China for the American people. Well,
one area they agree on is banning the social media
platform Tiktok from operating in the US. They're concerned the
app is taking user's data, and its parent company has ties to
the CCP, the Chinese Communist Party, Gallagher worries about
what that means for Americans.
It can be used to influence the news, what people see and talk
about and therefore to interfere in our society and our politics
and our very democracy.
looming threat from China on America watch your pearls.
America's economy spurred Congress to act last year,
passing a bill investing more than $50 billion for US
manufacturers to boost semiconductor production,
lawmakers say the use of a surveillance balloon by China
only reinforces the need for a comprehensive security plan,
rest of the century will be defined by what happens between
the United States in China. That's Florida Senator Marco
Rubio, the top Republican on the Senate Intelligence Committee,
this is not just a military challenge. China has fused its
commercial, military technological applications in
ways no other nation ever has. So it's a multifaceted
challenge.
Part of that challenge is also increased China aggression over
Taiwan, an island democracy that governs itself, but that China
claims as its territory,
we don't want open hostilities to break out in that part of the
world, which could lead to very severe consequences for the
region.
Adam Curry: So we can bicker over whether pivot or not. But
John C Dvorak: hold on. Sure. So first of all, I have my phone
ringing. But first of all, you're constantly condemning me
for the N T D announcers. This was
Adam Curry: NPR. This was oh my god, that was NPR.
John C Dvorak: Where did they hire them from NT?
Adam Curry: Most likely, in fact, NTD is on the line tip for
you right now pick it up. They want to know why you're not
playing any more clips. They're totally pissed off about that.
John C Dvorak: I only play video clips every third show.
Adam Curry: Do you not have voicemail on this thing? Come on
what's going on? If it rings one more time? Yeah, I'm starting
another clip. I'm starting notice a
Unknown: clip. CBS News has new information on that classified
Department of Energy report that details the origin of the COVID
19 virus. The new intelligence points to a possible lab leak in
Wuhan, China. CBS Catherine herridge has more.
Adam Curry: They always bring in cameras when in bringing the
spook girl the spook girl knows that. Oh, mind you. This isn't
this. This report came from the FBI, not from the CIA who go
overseas, not from our National Institute of Health. No, it came
from the intelligence community. So they're now the experts, all
of a son in this type of stuff is
John C Dvorak: always to have a little over 20 years. Yep. Thank
you, by the way is okay, no, no, keep playing. I'm sorry. I'll
listen to this. Right. I have some comment about this,
Unknown: when inside the Wuhan Labs is the pandemic unfolded
three years ago. Now two sources close to the US government probe
into the origins of COVID-19 Tell CBS News, there is new
intelligence that points to an accidental lab leak. The source
of the Energy Department has low confidence in the new reporting
the law unclear whether that reflects weak data or limited
intelligence.
We really do want to know what happened here.
The White House would not endorse the new finding
the intelligence community and the rest of the government is
still looking at this. There's not been a definitive
conclusions.
intelligence agencies have not been able to agree on how the
pandemic that killed more than a million Americans started.
Several still another
Adam Curry: lie we have there's no evidence that the pandemic
itself that the COVID itself killed a million Americans, but
we'll just take that as fact. Now let you
Unknown: agree on how the pandemic that killed more than a
million Americans started. Several still point to the
possibility of natural transmission through animals.
The first major outbreak occurred at a Wuhan wildlife and
seafood market.
John C Dvorak: Get for some Oh my god.
Adam Curry: I know for some reason CBS the CIA Broadcasting
System is pushing back a little bit
Unknown: the answers from the Chinese government or PRC has
been impossible. According to State Department spokesperson
Ned Price
for more than two years now, the PRC has been lobbying from the
beginning international investigators and members of the
global health community from accessing information that they
need to understand the origins of COVID 90
with more than 7 million deaths worldwide, the lack of
transparency has frustrated health experts, why does knowing
still matter?
Knowing the origins of COVID really matters because it will
impact how we prepare for the future Ah, there you go a result
of the lab leak it may result in tighter safety procedures in the
lab or more regulations on what kind of research is allowed.
Whereas if this is a natural occurrence, it does point to the
need for better among animal populations for example, to see
what what might be brewing as the next virus there.
Adam Curry: So notice this is this is the CIA side of the
house being very hesitant to agree and it makes me think that
Christopher Ray is just taking advantage He's probably in the
in the Silicon Valley Cabal. Hey, man, we need to be tracking
everybody a lot better. So either tick tock gives us their
data, which is probably no different from Facebook or
Instagram. But okay. Or, you know, we got to kick them out.
They said low confidence they report is low confidence.
Everyone's jumping around like Like he said, yet we got we got
the smoking gun. This is very weird.
John C Dvorak: I just find this whole thing to be so deja vu.
It's just I it's annoying. Yeah, I understand that. And
meanwhile, of course, no one wants to talk I met the CIA
specifically wouldn't want to talk about for Dietrich.
Adam Curry: No, we can't, you know, in my in my mind. This,
maybe this was just a fluke. And it's all a hoax. You know,
remember, flu went away during COVID was just gone. So maybe it
was just a just a Wuhan flu, which is literally what Trump
called it the Wuhan flu. And okay, bad flu. But maybe it
wasn't bioengineering at all.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, I'm not buying that one. I think it was
it was a weaponized and it was and it did kill people. It
didn't kill a million Americans but it was a killer and then
they added on to the killer vaccine.
Adam Curry: The response was a killer the response Meanwhile,
people
John C Dvorak: so you don't think there was a COVID?
Adam Curry: I didn't say that. I said it's possible. Well, where
did flu go? Of course no, I'm Coronavirus.
John C Dvorak: I agree with you that the numbers were
exaggerated. A Coronavirus
Adam Curry: is a flu. I'm just saying I do not so
John C Dvorak: Coronavirus is is a cold it's not a flu.
Adam Curry: Okay. All right, fine, whatever. Well, you
John C Dvorak: know that. Meanwhile, you had Kirby on here
and now Kirby is going to I thought Kirby we had something
on the ball. But I have a clip of Kirby being asked a question
about gain of function. Is it okay to do this sort of
research? And if you listen to this carefully, is under COVID.
If you listen to this carefully, I don't think he knows what kind
of function is. And now I don't think I know that he knows what
he's talking about about anything
Unknown: without weighing in one way or the other. On origin of
the virus, you make clear that there's no consensus. Does the
President believe though that the reward out ways the risk
when it comes to gain a bunch of research
is the reward outweigh the risk when it comes to gain? up you're
gonna have to say that again.
President believe that this type of game of functional research
is proving
he believes that it's important to help prevent future pandemic
Which means he understands that there has to be legitimate
scientific research into the sources of potential sources of
pandemics so that we understand it so that we can prevent them
as we prevent them from happening, obviously. But he
also believes and this is why he wants the whole of government
effort here to understand it, that that research has to be
done and must be done in a safe and secure manner as as
transparent as possible to the rest of the world so that so
people know what's going on. I think that's a fancy way of
saying yes.
Adam Curry: I think he knows exactly what he's talking about.
He's just couching it the way everyone else is, like, oh,
yeah, well, it was from a lab. So you know, now we know we have
to be careful when the next one comes. I think it's all
gaslighting. Yeah, sure. It was engineered. Okay. Sure. We
shouldn't even be arguing about it, because that's what everyone
is doing. Meanwhile, what's next? Oh, I think they'll say
China's a currency manipulator. You watch. It's all it's all.
Everything Trump was saying they're now playing deja vu to
of course it is. Of course it is. And by the way, the reason
we didn't catch this, the first time around, that this came from
China, whether it was made or not came from China was because
Trump is xenophobic,
Unknown: Trump unleashed this xenophobia, he's he stopped
allowing Chinese people to come to the country. He then started
calling it he kept on saying, China, China and doing this
thing, where I was even concerned, as someone who had
lost family members, right from Manny to even bring it up. And
that is really sad. The last guy before bible said anything about
this, he made it about Asian people. And I'm sure John Stuart
didn't realize that that's what was happening, because I'm sure
he didn't know what was going on all over the country, with Asian
folks getting smacked and hid and people saying stuff to them
about bringing the disease here. I mean, this was this was what
was happening. And if you know who had not started it with
that, had he not made it about that. And he said, Listen, this
might have come out of a lab, it probably would have been
listened to a lot different.
John C Dvorak: She's got her act together.
Adam Curry: That's so beautiful. Yeah, if we don't If only he had
said it differently, we would have listened differently. Okay.
Okay. We'll be. And of course, it was the response. That was
the problem. It was the lock downs. That was the problem. He
was all all of this the masks. That was the problem. Now we
know that it simply was not the killer virus that that it was
promoted to be. You agree with me there, right?
John C Dvorak: Yeah, the numbers were pretty much the same. It
was always analyzed as the flu. It had the same numbers as the
flu in terms of his deadliness. So something
Adam Curry: interesting is going down in the UK. The lockdown
files had been published. I don't know if you follow this.
The Telegraph a respectable newspaper, I would say compared
to what we might mainly read daily news and the sun. The
Telegraph published still
John C Dvorak: still pretty interesting. The Telegraph. It
says this is a mouthpiece for the Democrats. The Taliban are
very anti Trump during their era.
Adam Curry: Do you mean that? You mean the liberals? I mean,
in this is UK, right.
John C Dvorak: Yeah. The Telegraph. When I say Democrats,
I'm referring to Americans.
Adam Curry: Oh, okay. Well, no, this is a purely UK based thing.
No, I
John C Dvorak: understand that I understand completely. But when
it came to talking about American politics, they were
very pro Democrat. Okay. And they do talk about American
politics quite a bit.
Adam Curry: So the lockdown files consist of 100,000
WhatsApp messages, which have revealed some things about the
lockdown
Unknown: after and these are fairly explosive allegations.
You Yes, they certainly are. Broke late last night with the
telegraph front page, saying fundamentally that Matt Hancock
who was of course health secretary, and ignored the
advice of Chris witty the chief medical officer to test
everybody going in to a care home now that of course, is
pretty damning, and it has come from 100,000 WhatsApp messages,
that's journalist Isabel Oakshott handed over to the
Telegraph. Now Isabelle co wrote maps Hancock's pandemic diaries
along with him and so was previously very friendly with
him, and now has that has obviously soured. Now Matt
Hancock's teams are absolutely incandescent with rage. They're
saying that this is flat out wrong, that the story has been
distorted because there's a WhatsApp message referring to a
meeting. They say in that meeting, Matt Hancock was told,
although he wanted to test everybody going into care homes,
that they simply didn't have the capacity and that is why he was
therefore only able to test people going into care homes
that were coming in from hospital. So they are very
angry. They're threatening legal action. Isabel Oakshott
apparently would have signed a nondisclosure agreement and was
writing in Matt Hancock support when the pandemic diaries came
out of basically that history would reflect that he'd done his
best, but that looks rather different today.
Adam Curry: Yeah, here's the takeaway. One, don't trust
journalists. They'll Screw you. If they can to erase your
messages people. WhatsApp is I'm sure that's not government level
messaging approved protocol. I would think that doesn't seem
like a smart thing to have hanging around. In the lockdown
files, we also learn the UK health authorities considered
ordering the euthanization of all pet cats in the country.
Wow, I can't believe they missed that opportunity. It's good,
great. So Europe is taking the Tiktok thing very seriously.
They're even presenting it as as like legislation is done tic
TOCs leaving America.
Unknown: Now the how US has Deutsche Avella House Foreign
Affairs Committee has voted to give presidential Biden new
paths for an outright ban of tick tock and other social media
apps. lawmakers voted 26 to 16. To approve the measure.
Republican committee chair Michael McCaul sponsored it.
Democrats on the committee oppose the bill Tiktok is used
by more than 100 million Americans, the measure would
need to be passed by the full house and he was Senate before
it can go to Biden tick tock has come under increased scrutiny
scrutiny on both sides of the Atlantic as Western countries
take a critical look at the Chinese companies reach and the
security risks. It might pose.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, so this thing so why don't you explain
to the audience? What's the security risk? Oh, the security
risk some guy jumping off of ice of the office, the roof and onto
a rubber ball and then hitting the ground and hurting his back?
Well, okay. Classic tick tock video.
Adam Curry: Yes. This is the deterring America's
technological adversaries Act, also known as the data x because
you know, data is like oil. Today's oil is like the data. So
what they're saying is absolute bunk. Because there's no more or
less data that tick tock as an app can glean then Facebook,
Twitter, Google, etc.
John C Dvorak: I don't think they can get as much as
Facebook. Your Facebook is probably getting
Adam Curry: more you may be right. But because when you sign
up, it says hey, you know, if you use tick tock anywhere else,
not necessarily in the app, even though they can do it in the app
today. Everyone can track your keystrokes in any app. In fact,
you can see there is a software developer kits available where
you can reap literally pick up a user and replay their action
like an instant replay. You can see the movement on the screen.
This is partially bull crap. Just know it's 100% bullcrap
that oh, we have to get rid of tick tock because my assertion
is tick tock is really eating Silicon Valley's launch.
John C Dvorak: Jas, by the way to fall back on it that is, no
matter what anyone says about tick tock or what even your
current assertions? That's the reason
Adam Curry: yes for for the for this, but it's being spun into.
We can have the Chinese PRC we can't we can't have them,
getting our data on our people get we want to track our people.
We can't have someone else doing that. It's so cynical. So the
national security problem is or the here's how they're playing
it's national security issue. And that's why we have to do
this
Unknown: here in Washington tonight. The crackdown on tick
tock continues. The White House today gave government agencies
30 days to remove the video sharing app from all federal
devices and computer systems.
Adam Curry: If it's an emergency, why 30 days, why not
30 hours?
John C Dvorak: I have another question just above that it's
more meta. What is tic toc or any product like that doing on
any federal device? I mean, wonder what are they? I'm
working for the government. I've got a government to hand me a
phone. And so what am I going to do dick around on tick tock, and
they're going to allow that. What's it doing there in the
first place? I tracked down everyone who had tick tock on
the phones, and FYROM.
Adam Curry: It's interesting, you bring that up. I just
someone just sent me this this morning. That the car is here.
The Department of Homeland Security has ordered everyone if
I guess they give them iPhones. That they have a deal with Apple
and they give the handout, government iPhones to them.
Their iMessage will be disabled, I think within the next week,
and they will only be able to communicate via SMS text
message. So So the government is disabling? I think the probably
the security factor of you know the encryption. Maybe Apple
doesn't want to crack encryption of people sending messages
within Department of Homeland Security. I'm not sure he had
deactivation of the iMessage service. DHS has mandate
mandated as of Wednesday, March 1, yesterday, the Apple iMessage
service option on DHS furnished Apple devices must be disabled,
all text messages will be handled through cellular carrier
Short Message Service, or multimedia message services. So
you know, they're cracking down on on something. But why you see
the the immediacy of of the of the iMessage, but not the Tick
Tock 30 days, I think there was also a 90 day limit here.
Unknown: The Office of Management Budget says the move
is aimed at protecting us data official suspect that China is
using the app to spy on Americans you go to ban does not
impact the more than 100 million Americans and teams who use tick
tock on non government devices.
Adam Curry: Yeah, but it's just that's how it's gonna happen.
And you have to ask yourself, why, you know, why doesn't Apple
be a good citizen here? Take it off. We all know why. People
would throw away their iPhones. I need my tick tock.
John C Dvorak: Nobody needs tick tock, especially on a government
product. People are addicted to tick tock. No. I mean, I look at
tick tock, I don't use it. I use my phone to I will go on
somebody have a link to something and I'll play it on
the web, not tracking anything there.
Adam Curry: The main issue here is the people who voted against
this, which was of course all the Democrats, but also some
some Republicans on the committee clearly. I think I'm
gonna just find out who did. It's like, you know, this gives
the President extraordinary powers. What being able to just
throw any app out of the App Store? Because of you know,
national security issues. That's the that's the way it's written
up is his gig gives the President the authority to do
this. Which I find weird, you know, why wouldn't you just have
Congress make a law and say, No tick tock or nothing from China?
John C Dvorak: Why Why bother? So Gretchen Whitmer had the best
line about this whole thing. She said that she's not worried
about tick tock because she's only got one phone. What said,
Adam Curry: how was that a good news?
John C Dvorak: Well, that's what she said. I don't know what it
means that she's just such a tic TOCs. Not worrisome, because she
only has one phone.
Adam Curry: That's so odd. I don't know what she means by
that.
John C Dvorak: It's what you want is what you want for your
governor.
Adam Curry: Hmm. Well, it's interesting to see that apple
won't block Tik Tok, which is clearly you know, unAmerican
unAmerican to have that on your platform, by the way, you don't
hear anyone saying that. Why isn't Marco Rubio or McCall from
Texas? Why aren't they saying, you know, Apple and Google,
they're unAmerican by allowing this in their app store?
Wouldn't that solve it? But no. Apple did, however, block an
email program, which I think is called it's called Email blue or
something. And the reason why is because this app will write
emails using AI chat GPT. So Apple says, you know, we have a
lot of concern about this. So we have to block that from the App
Store. Blue mail is what it's called. Your app includes AI
generated content, but does not appear to include content
filtering is the reason So this is all bullcrap all of it.
They're all full of crap. And out for as far as I can see,
let's not call it a pivot. But as far as I can see, this is all
about focusing everybody on China. Let's just get this
Ukraine war over with let's focus on China.
John C Dvorak: Here's my Ukraine's clips all I guess 22
seconds is all I got about Ukraine.
Unknown: With Ukrainian forces coming under relentless assault
in the city of back mode. Military officials now say they
may be prepared to pull some troops back remarks apparently
suggest Russia could capture the eastern city that is viewed as a
symbol of Ukrainian resistance to Russian occupation. Kremlin
forces have staged a bloody month long offensive to take the
city, which is pretty much become a ghost town.
Adam Curry: Yeah, I have a couple more clips. We start with
what you will never see on the M five M here in the United
States, and you'll barely see it on the M five m in the EU, where
this is going down. This is from I think France 24,
Unknown: marching for peace in Ukraine, hundreds to the streets
of London on Saturday, urging a ceasefire and negotiations with
Russia to end the conflict. Among them supporters of the
Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament, warning that any
escalation in fighting would increase the chances of a
nuclear war. Many wanted to see an end to Western military
support for Ukraine. It would help if we stopped saying we'll
just give you lots more weapons until you win the war. It's not
gonna happen like that, you know, Ukrainians are really
tough. Russians are really tough, and NATO is really rich.
So that's, that's all the ingredients you need for a kind
of endless war. Well, this demonstration is one of many
happening over this weekend across Europe. Now, for these
demonstrators. arming Ukraine is simply making things worse and
prolonging the conflict. But others take a very different
approach. In the Belgian capital, many of those marching
in solidarity with Ukraine were actually refugees from that
country.
Weapons for our defense, we need the sanctions against the
Russia. We need economical support, because we defend not
only our land, we defend all democracy world
while in Berlin, a bigger protest at least 10,000 turned
up to say no to the idea of Germany arming Ukraine,
we're demonstrating for peace and against intervention of our
government in in that war that is not ours.
The people that voted for those politicians, they did not know
that they will push us into war and send weapons into countries
that are in war. This is even against our constitution.
So different messages, and no end in sight to the misery
inflicted on the people of Ukraine.
Adam Curry: Yeah. All right. So we have everyone except
Brussels. Brussels is all that it does whatever it takes
Brussels. Wonder why Brussels
John C Dvorak: huh? Well, Biden keeps saying whatever it takes
and then Trudeau recently says whatever it takes,
Adam Curry: and Janet Yellen, surprise visit to good old
Volodymyr. She just popped by Ukraine to say Hi,
Unknown: Mark one year since the beginning of this full scale
invitations to message I bring you from President Biden this
symbol, America oops, we'll stand with Ukraine for as long
as it takes.
US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen swept into cube on Monday
in a surprise visit to reaffirm us support for Ukraine as it
fights Russia's invasion, highlighting US economic aid
that is bolstering Ukraine's war efforts.
Today I'm proud to announce the transfer budget An additional
advantage over the first tranche of about $10 billion into the
United States to provide in the coming months,
feeling met with President Volodymyr Zelensky and Ukrainian
Prime Minister Dinesh Miho. Also the to discuss further US
sanctions on Russia, as well as confiscating frozen Russian
assets.
John C Dvorak: What's missing?
Adam Curry: I'm still hanging out the frozen Russian assets.
They're gonna take the Russian money to rebuild I can
John C Dvorak: get away with that. Yes, they
Adam Curry: are. Of course,
John C Dvorak: they're not. Okay, I can get away with that
they're not. Why not? Because it's illegals against
international law to do what they're going to try to
Adam Curry: what name the international law and who
maintains this international law at you.
John C Dvorak: I'm just telling you, that's not going to happen
you if you think it's going to happen. Okay, we'll put $1 on
it. Done, here's what's missing. A wins the bet. And
Adam Curry: as long as it takes,
John C Dvorak: I'll never get my dollar. So there's something
missing from all these reports. If you remember what you don't
want remember the Vietnam War in some of these other wars, they
will usually have a daily death toll. There has been very little
talk of the death toll. It's as if they're wiping out the male
reproductive aged males that are getting killed left and right
now they're running teams out there. They're killing off the
population of Ukraine for some reason. And I'm wondering if
it's not being done on purpose, they're not telling us about the
casualties at all.
Adam Curry: That is very interesting, because I came
across this report from France. 24 is comfortable
Unknown: in Kyiv, Svetlana and Nicola have repeatedly discussed
having a child because he's in the Ukrainian army. She's 25.
He's 30. They met just four months before Russia's full
scale invasion a year ago, but especially in the war
accelerated things, and made us think about the sincerity of our
feelings, and the values we share. They are now engaged to
be married and want a child Dame to freeze and store Mikelis
sperm before he goes to the front.
Row, I suggested it, I wasn't thinking of the worst that could
happen. Sure. I told him that if injuries damaged his ability to
have children, at least we would have this solution.
Adam Curry: Yeah. So they're just freezing their sperm
sending them off to be killed.
John C Dvorak: There was a couple of reports that have come
out here and there that say that if the average lifespan for a
Ukrainian soldier on the frontlines is one hour,
Adam Curry: yeah, no, no, they're being slaughtered,
they're being absolutely slaughtered. Of course, there's
not going to be any count of that.
John C Dvorak: Now. And that's what's missing. If you remember,
anyone remembers war stories from any of the other little
battles. They always talk about the casualties. They've even
talked about the casualties in Iraq, of the civilians, which
was a quarter of a million people, at least, and but
there's really one of those 100,000 Russians killed, they
did sometimes mentioned that's killing off.
Adam Curry: That's, that's the only thing you'll hear is how
many Russians died. You're right. That's the only thing you
hear in that regard. Meanwhile, back home, and by the way, you
can set any date you want on that on that dollar, because at
least I have them saying they're going to do it and saying that
they're going to set up a new special court for that. And
they're going to change international law for that. So
if you can find something to the contrary, instead of justice
never going to happen. I'd respect that.
John C Dvorak: But I'll take the dollar after December first of
this year.
Adam Curry: Fine. Boy, here is December 1 of this year good.
Here's our current war monger the ever so peace loving Sean
Penn on CNN with both thing I'd
Unknown: like to say is, you know, having just just returned
from Ukraine about 10 days ago or so I was that the the impact
of President Biden's trip was extraordinary. I mean, that's
that that's extremely encouraging. I think one of the
things that's concerned me and I, you know, I think that
there's no question but that they need more ammunition more
long range precision weapons, and yes, fighter jets. Oh, yeah.
This and the issue really, is that, you know, right now
they're dying, every day, they're dying. So what we're
waiting for seems to still be attached to this.
Adam Curry: This is interesting. He is saying they're dying,
they're dying. They're dying. This is actually the only person
who's kind of being a little bit honest about that. But now he's
saying, you know, we need to kill him and kill other people.
You know, that we can have, Hey, you can't you can't go outside
if you're not vaccinated. So Sean Penn because you're killing
people, but meanwhile, I want f6 teams to kill people,
Unknown: I would argue over cautious concern, or war monger
nuclear weapons because
Adam Curry: and nuclear weapons is just an is not true. It's
just a joke, according to him.
Unknown: For one thing, if we're going to live in a world where a
bully with nuclear weapons, runs the show. You know, there are
there was a
Adam Curry: this is interesting, was it not Volodymyr Zelensky?
Who was the first one to say we need nuclear weapons in Ukraine?
It wasn't he being the bully by saying that.
Unknown: A former intelligence officer I'd spoken to in Ukraine
at one point he said you know it He doesn't live in that want to
live in that world and Ukraine won't. And so I just think we
have to make a clear decision to start saving lives saving
infrastructure. And by killing other people what that means is
supplying the Ukrainians they have no interest in having
Americans or others in the fight they're ready to take the fight
themselves. And their their ability to transition on these
platforms be at the Essex teens, or, or when it comes to the
patriot.
Adam Curry: I just love Sean Penn so indoctrinated by the
military industrial complex, who no doubt are sending our flying
him in and out every single time. We're now he's talking
about these platforms, you know, because he's so schooled on the
F 16 platform, the Patriot platform, you know, just just
call it what it is the Raytheon and Boeing platform Sean Penn,
you are a horrible war monger.
Unknown: Is is not I don't think there's been an honest
conversation about how quickly they can transition I think it's
all there's a lot in the air about how long it takes
maintenance fueling all of that, but there are a lot of many ways
in which that can be you know,
Adam Curry: sped up Yeah, speed it up. Everybody need to speed
it up.
John C Dvorak: This WHAT IS IT guy like that he's an actor. And
he's goes over there. And of course, he did a little movie or
something before but he's over there now. And he's, and he says
talking to an intelligence officer,
Adam Curry: former former former intelligence officer
John C Dvorak: I don't think he said former did I think you said
former. Okay.
Adam Curry: But doesn't matter.
John C Dvorak: Just doesn't seem like the kind of thing you when
you're traveling around. Under any circumstances. You're gonna
be talking to too many of those guys. Why are they talking?
Adam Curry: Hi, Sean, good to meet you. I'm a former
intelligence officer. Yeah, that sounds right. Then we had our
NATO chief, it's really these people are insane. Jens
Stoltenberg. Standing next to the guy standing next to the
prime minister of Finland. You know, the millennial girl.
John C Dvorak: The girl yeah, she's the dancer. Yes. All she
party girl
Adam Curry: the party girl. Exactly. But she she she did not
bump into the furniture. She read her lines after the tee up
from the setup here from the Leu percent up from Yen's? Well,
Unknown: they do almost agree that Ukraine will become a
member of our alliance. But at the same time that that is a
long term perspective, what is the what is the issue now is to
ensure that Ukraine prevail as a sovereign, independent,
independent nation, and therefore we need to support
Ukraine.
I see that the future of Ukraine is to be part of European Union
and also a member of NATO. We have taken many steps forward
when it comes to military aid to Ukraine. And I'm very glad that
we are now cooperating together much more closely to give your
brain more heavy weapons, I think for discussion now,
Adam Curry: heavy weapons. She has the Sean Penn talking
points, heavy weapons. That's what he said to
Unknown: to giving your brain more heavy weapons. I think that
discussion now even though it's taking some time, it's been very
important concerning for example, your parts. So
countries are cooperating together more closely and more
widely. And this is a very good thing we have to support Ukraine
as long as it takes. They also need more heavy weapons.
Adam Curry: Literally going into a loop is repeating herself.
Unknown: And this is a very good thing we have to support your
frame as long as it takes. And they also need more heavy
weapons. And the faster and the sooner we can give them more
heavy weapons, the sooner the war will end. And this is
something that we also need that cooperation between the
democratic countries has taken many decisions on arm support
Ukraine and we are willing to continue this as long as it
takes.
John C Dvorak: Wow, she keeps saying the same thing over and
over. Yes, she's caught in the loop as long as it takes she
said it to least three times
Adam Curry: and but she had the same pen speeded up heavy
weapons. This is also by the way, Penn didn't say the former
intelligence officer was CIA. Whoever it was indoctrinated him
good. That's how it works. Hey, man, I'm just giving you some
inside info, you know, because I'm former former CIA. So you
know, clearly, you know, the agency boys. I'm not supposed to
tell you this. But the agency boys tell you they like we
rolled up to speed this up. We need to get to heavy weapons and
as long as it takes. And that's how it worked. I think Sean Penn
is dumb. It's very possible. He's just dumb.
John C Dvorak: Sean Penn has a lot of earmarks. A person who's
dumb.
Adam Curry: You know, it's like how else can you come to these
conclusions? Jim's now Russia in the meantime, they're there.
They're just piling it on now. This is a Foreign Minister
Lavrov, with a translator about the biological warfare that this
is really about.
Unknown: It has arrived. And we have had data and we have data
that Pentagon, the Pentagon is preoccupied about the chemical
and biological installations in Ukraine, because Pentagon built
two biological war labs, and they have been developing
pathogens in Cavan, in Odessa, and now they are concerned that
they may lose control over these labs. And you know, what it may
be like, in future and Americans decline fledgling resolutely to
start a new inspection mechanism as part of the convention for
the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons and they build new
chemical and biological facilities all across Russian
borders. And, you know, many other developments happen, the
CIA has been on the ground in droves. And they have been
training the Ukrainian army not to wage a war with Paul and
Baron.
Adam Curry: Really, so CIA is swarming talking to Sean Penn,
letting him know, as former intelligence officers, and
they're kind of worried about the Bio Labs, which I think we
kind of got confirmation on from Victoria Nuland that they were
real, that we have biolabs
John C Dvorak: Yes, we do. So that's another thing that's deja
vu.
Adam Curry: Just a little bit at ABC that kind of the screwball
report
Unknown: tonight, a series of mysterious drone strikes inside
Russia. According to the Kremlin. video circulating
online shown explosion at an oil depo smoke billowing into the
sky and other drone believed to be targeting a gas facility
striking deep inside Russia. It came within just 60 miles of
Moscow, the Kremlin blaming Ukraine, but so far no claim of
responsibility.
Adam Curry: How can you crane send a drone 60 miles from
Moscow? Are you kidding me? That's us.
Unknown: Vladimir Putin today ordering his Federal Security
Service the FSB to take over border security. Not sure what
is wrong, even made a rare admission, saying there have
been losses in our ranks. Many of those losses are in eastern
Ukraine in back moved. Desperate for a win after more than a year
of war. Moscow is sending in fighter jets, battering endless
buildings with artillery and losing countless lives, all to
take now ruined back mood. Those determined to say trying to
survive with the relentless sound of gunfire and explosions.
Buildings burning, but no one is coming to help here. But Ukraine
spirit of survival, unbroken today, Ukraine announcing
additional units are on their way to back mood. This is
soldiers saying though the city is on fire. Ukraine will live
Adam Curry: a couple of interesting articles. The
Pentagon is now saying that yeah, you know, we are losing a
lot of weapons that that are going into Ukraine that we're
sending. But that's because Russia is taking them.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, I saw this report to that networks have
been promoting this idea. Yeah. All right, that Russia is
overrunning these guys and then taking the weapons
Adam Curry: and them taking them to Africa. I guess.
John C Dvorak: The thing that gets me I still don't understand
why the Russians haven't gone to Afghanistan and picked up the
weapons to $80 billion where the stuff we left there.
Adam Curry: I thought that the I thought ISIS was already moving
in to help them personally.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, there's some a lot of good stuff that
could be useful. Yeah,
Adam Curry: possibly, as Alinsky predicted that Putin will be
killed by his inner circle that he'll just wind up getting
pushed out of a window. Yeah, sure. What kind of dawned on me
is these freaks who are doing this the Newlands the Jake
Solomon's the NED Prince Obama's the okay Biden for whatever's
left of his of his brain matter. CIA you have the whole the whole
government apparatus that that wants to do this that wants to
get rid of everybody and wants to you know, they did freeze
Russia's money, you know, so call it you can call that theft
if you want to, but, you know, throw them off the SWIFT system,
the 10th round of sanctions, all this stuff going on. But there's
no rush of phobia they haven't been able to ignite. What was
the Red Scare? Because no one is afraid of Russians. We have put
phobia. Yeah, boy yeah, Putin bad guy. You know, it doesn't
resemble in any way the Red Scare that like the commies are
coming or anything like is none of the communist under your bed
and then there's these they can't ignite that it's not
possible people are to intertwine mainly thanks for tic
toc. We watch Russian videos. I don't think anyone hates
Russians.
John C Dvorak: Anyone who's watched the cut Russian car
crash videos loves the
Adam Curry: Russians. I mean, while we still have that going
on, and also while we, you know, we literally shot you we get
we're carrying Russians to the International Space Station.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, we did a lunch recently, this morning.
Adam Curry: In fact, the 40. Let me say this, Clive
Unknown: asked all the crew members, both Russians and
Americans, how do you deal with that on the station? That's a
lot of tension. Do you discuss Putin? And do you discuss
Ukraine? Or do you just leave it off the table, not all of them
said we don't go there. We've got very important issues. Our
lives depend on each other. We simply don't talk politics. And
Russia and America continue this relationship in space, because
they're partners in the international space station, and
they need each other. And so this crew, which will jump to
the station tomorrow is arriving just as they've also had some
drama on the station. They've had two Russian spacecraft over
the last few months, develop leaks or coolant leaks, one of
them cargo ship, they had three up and let go and it burned up
in the atmosphere on reentry. The other one is Soyuz
spacecraft was supposed to be the lifeboat in case they had to
evacuate the station. So they had been without a lifeboat for
one American and two Russians. Russia just launched another
replacement law lifeboat a Soyuz last week. But that's been the
concern what has been causing these micro leaks, they think
it's a micro meteorite strike that have taken out the coolant
systems on a Soyuz and a Progress cargo ship. Again, they
dock tomorrow, six months on the space station, doing some 200
experiments. So a lot of universities are watching very
closely to see their experiments are going to be completed guys
back to you.
John C Dvorak: Still there from the Kennedy Space Center. And
that SpaceX launch, Tom, thank you.
Adam Curry: No, thank you, Tom. Riveting, just riveting. We're
carrying a Russian so we just don't have we don't have that
rush of phobia and so people aren't invested in this. And
when I don't even think we have love for Ukraine. It's like look
at the Lensky isn't he hot?
John C Dvorak: That's all Linsky seems like it like an asshole
Adam Curry: Well, of course he's an actor No wonder Sean Penn
gets along with him so well. Absolutely. The I got two more
clips here. One is
John C Dvorak: the characters you know there's no investment
in the characters.
Adam Curry: No, there's no character development you're
right now
John C Dvorak: it's just like it's like watching one of these
a movie or something unfold and you don't care about anybody at
all? No. So you can't You're not if you don't get invested you
stop watching
Adam Curry: this right now oh yeah, I think I think disasters
now for the ratings is definitely not working for
ratings anymore. People don't care they're moving on. We're
much we're too worried about Tiktok being taken away. Gotta
have that in my vein 24/7 France 24 did a very interesting they
call it truth or fake I think
John C Dvorak: yeah, they do that i we did we highlighted
this a couple of years ago. I started doing it weekly and then
it was not that interesting.
Adam Curry: Oh, so So they did one which I like for a number of
reasons. One, they are trying to take down Stu Peters, who I
think you and I both find a questionable character.
Absolutely. And and they're taking down him based on to
conspiracy theories. And one of them I wouldn't have even
brought up but since since do Peters appears I mean and when
you hear how unhinged he is about this, it's you know, the
Zelinsky has a guy his bodyguard and and the bodyguard looks a
bit like him. And so, you know, this is a typical telegram item
people on telegram. Oh man, look at it as his body doubles. Is it
the real one is the body double? Now we know the body doubles
exist. We've caught a few of them Hillary Clinton for sure.
But really the technology for masks and to have someone else
look like it like be the person you think they are? That I mean,
that was the stuff that you saw. What was the Tom Cruise movies
that Mission Impossible?
John C Dvorak: Yeah, Mission Impossible. The old TV shows
would show this and if you listen to the like the CIA
experts like that woman that was the costumer Yeah. It's it
sounds like it's beyond our comprehension how good this is.
Adam Curry: It is. I mean, the technology I have heard
firsthand from family members, that in the late 60s This
technology was already good enough to fool people. And
that's probably what the CIA is a disguise lady shows Well, this
is what we're doing the 50 years ago. So it's going to be much
better. So that whole premise is just a stew Peters distraction.
I know a lot of people love him. Like, Ah, he's talented like it
is. He should do Show with James O'Keefe. They should team up
together and I'll be on Tim Poole.
Unknown: Yes, Fraser this week's do Peters the American fire
rights influencer and TV host has published no less than three
misleading pieces of information surrounding the war in Ukraine.
One of them published just two days ago, shows Ukrainian
president Volodymyr Zelensky. And US President Joe Biden
climbing the stairs together in caves, Mariinsky palace. Now in
the video attached to these tweets, we can see a man
resembling bloodmeal Zelinsky appear, follow the two and then
suddenly stop. Now according to sue pizzas, this represents a
glitch in the matrix.
Adam Curry: And what she's doing, she's showing his tweets
as you circling on the big screen glitch in the Matrix.
Which by the way, pisses me off to just using the word glitch
disqualifies you, but it's like, oh, wow, man, what is this must
be a deep fake what's going on glitch in the matrix, and
Unknown: he went on to perpetuate the theory that this
man is a lookalike or a double of Vladimir slansky. Now this is
a theory that we've seen for a long time from Russian
propagandists to Russian propagandists during the war. In
Ukraine. We've covered this a lot here on truth of it before,
and it's very visible on pro Russian accounts on telegram and
on Twitter. You go this video actually shows
Adam Curry: notice the Yeah, very pro Russian accounts
telegram and Twitter. That's where you go, that's where you
go hang out. If you're pro Russians,
Unknown: Maxime Donets, he is loaded. mooseland skews
official, bodyguard. This is a photo from the same visit
published by French media Alex Paris. And as we can see, he
does have a similar height and build to the Ukrainian
president. But he does have very discernible distinguishable and
different facial features. Now we can see him again, in these
in this in these photos published last August, with
Boris Johnson, but again, similar heights and builds, but
they are very, very much different people.
Adam Curry: Now I love I just love that they go to such
lengths to even discuss this. Let's do
Unknown: Pete has also shared this tweets with his followers
earlier this week. And this one racked up over 17 million views.
Adam Curry: Now this is interesting this is you probably
saw the montage where you see all these buildings that were
partially or really heavily damaged. And they're now all
rebuilt and beautiful and pristine. Which in my mind is
not when I saw when I first saw this I'm like, well, it's easy
to just reverse the pictures. Yeah, this. This is now instead
of it was then. But it turns out, they have literally been
rebuilding these buildings during the war, which I also
kind of find like, odd considering everything's under
attack.
Unknown: He posted these two photos of the same building in
Ukraine. One was taken last year in February 2022, and one from
this year in 2023. Now he claims that this war is fake or staged
and that these these buildings couldn't possibly have been
touched by any missiles or bombs, because it would be
impossible to restore the building to this condition in
this time. Again, this is a popular pro Russian theory that
we have seen numerous times here again, even on truth or fake at
the war being a hoax. Now this building's reconstruction has
been pretty heavily documented in both Western and Ukrainian
media. After Russian troops withdrew from cube last March,
that is exactly what allowed this building to be rebuilt. And
as it was discussed quite heavily in this article from
Ukraine's the village, the building was documented stage by
stage of its reconstruction Fraser
Adam Curry: Okay, so I will mention that I find a couple
things strange. Russians withdrawal from Kyiv did they
ever enter Kyiv
John C Dvorak: not that I know that I know of either. They had
their tanks nearby that they were running down to Don Basque
and then Shan boss.
Adam Curry: He says this has been heavily documented in
Western media as well as others and then the example she gives
is the kief Gazette I mean that's we know that trick is an
intelligence trick, but according to the to the key of
times. So she doesn't quote The New York Times or any other
Washington Post or anything like that. So I but in general, it's
like really, I didn't know that they actually worry rebuilding.
Well, no wonder we need the money from Russia. We got to pay
off the contractors for work already performed.
John C Dvorak: And that is peculiar.
Adam Curry: final clip is from Douglas McGregor. You don't like
him?
John C Dvorak: We've talked about Douglas McGregor before I
tried to get a hold of them. But our podcast and no agenda show
is to beneath him to even discuss anything.
Adam Curry: Wow, this comes from some lowly podcast. I can't
believe
John C Dvorak: I know. That's what he did got me. Well, maybe
we were just we weren't even
Adam Curry: know. So do we now not trust Him? Because He
John C Dvorak: shows distrust them. I just think he's a
douchebag.
Adam Curry: Oh, okay. Well, the question is posed, who's behind
this war?
Unknown: So the first question that I wanted to get down, is,
who is it that really wants this war
between NATO and Vladimir Putin because it is clear that the
American people are largely divorced from the reality of
this conflict as they have been for the last 30 years of divorce
from all the conflicts, war has always been something that
happened far away on somebody else's soil. The difference this
time is that Washington has decided, along with help and
assistance, particularly from its allies in London, and the
global financial community run out of New York City, to wage
war on the Russian stage, with the goal of not simply regime
change, but ultimately destroying the state,
potentially dismembering it. And when you look at the people who
are advocates for this terrible, destructive policy, they are
largely the same people that that got us into the Balkans, in
the 1990s, into Bosnia and Kosovo. And then subsequently,
or were largely supportive of the interventions in 2001, and
three, for perpetual warfare in the Middle East, demonizing and
transforming into an enemy, Libya, Syria, and obviously,
Iran. This is an old story, it's the same old trope that you've
been hearing. It's 1936. Again, we have another potential
Hilarion state, and if we don't act, we are appeasers and the
war, there's the world as we know, it will lead. So that's
about it. But I think there's a lot of money behind this because
Russia is full of trillions of dollars of resources, mineral
resources, oil, gas, precious metals, agricultural, we just go
down the list. And it was an attempt in the 90s. And any
early part of this century by people from the West, many of
whom are connected to organizations like Goldman Sachs
and the global financial community, to go in and
effectively rape Russia and steal everything they possibly
could from it. They were ultimately defeated and thrown
out by Vladimir Putin, who established a new regime to
bring some more stability and dignity back to the Russian
state.
Adam Curry: That it's a trope for sure, when you throw out
Goldman Sachs
John C Dvorak: videos, which but No, he wouldn't figure that out.
I mean, you have to give Putin some credit for recognizing that
the NGOs were fronts,
Adam Curry: right. But were they connected to Goldman Sachs? I
didn't know that. I don't know
John C Dvorak: that they were not but they were friends and
everything had to go. Goldman Sachs word was involved in any
of this. He
Adam Curry: said trope I'm actually accusing him of, of
saying this is Zeid design is globalists. When you bring in
Goldman Sachs,
John C Dvorak: bringing Goldman Sachs up, you're hinting at it.
Yeah. But that's true. It doesn't sound right to me.
Adam Curry: In the military industrial complex, a
John C Dvorak: real concise answer to the real question,
which was, what's the point? Yeah.
Adam Curry: I mean, Military Industrial Complex. Yeah. Yeah.
I believe that they're high on their own supply. They can't get
enough of it. They love it. To do it. Let's do it. Let's do
more. But just to call out Wall Street. Maybe
John C Dvorak: I'm skeptical.
Adam Curry: Yeah, I'm skeptical too. But you know, until the guy
talks to us, he's just on the skeptical list.
John C Dvorak: Is ever talking
Adam Curry: unless he answers our questions. You've got to
talk to us, man. You're no good. No, good. All right. I think
that is the that's probably the main the main crux of what we've
got there. Just seems like now we're getting everybody all
riled up. To get to take away your tic tock.
John C Dvorak: Just going to be bad tic tock thing is ludicrous.
Adam Curry: It would be I'm all for it. By the way. Get rid of
Tik Tok.
John C Dvorak: I like tick tock.
Adam Curry: Of course you do. It's it's ruining people. I see
grown men Doom scrolling for an hour. Well,
John C Dvorak: I've never been that attached to it but I mean,
I will look at stuff and then I do admire the fact that they do
try to figure out what you're into. No, you know, what, what
are you being attracted to? The problem is I have these software
systems that that it's clear all my caches throw out the cookies
does do all these things every night so I don't know how much
you know, they have to relearn my viewing habits every time I
go on Tik Tok and I only do it maybe a couple of times a week
right? You don't but you'd use an account or just you just know
never get signed up because
Adam Curry: from what I've seen once you view one video if you
want to view another one then it's then it forces you into a
sign up mode.
John C Dvorak: No, I've never had that problem. I go on
they're not signed up. I don't have an account I go view a
video they throw another one at me than another and I can be
there for days if I wanted to be that's that's never happened.
Adam Curry: Oh, well, that's probably because your cookies
are they don't they your new every single time your new
person?
John C Dvorak: Maybe, maybe not. Yeah.
Adam Curry: Let's see what other distraction do we have? This is
a big one here in the United States. Back
Unknown: here in Washington. President Biden's plan to
forgive student loan debt for more than 40 million Americans
is facing its toughest test yet the Supreme Court. The justices
heard arguments today on two different challenges brought by
six Republican led states and two student loan borrowers. See
as Jan Crawford is outside the Supreme Court.
Students came to make their voices heard is a lot of anxiety
and fear. 25 year olds or more would see about a third of her
so
Adam Curry: totally printed signs. I mean, they had the
union boss Randy Gardner right there.
Unknown: They're 25 year olds and they have more wood see
about a third of our $70,000 student loan debt erased under
President Biden's forgiveness plan.
I feel like my life is on the line. If it doesn't get
canceled. She is one
of 43 million people eligible for some student loan debt
relief. Those making less than $125,000 a year could get
$10,000 in debt forgiven. Those with Pell Grants could get
$20,000 erased, but that comes at a cost nearly half a trillion
dollars. Critics say on an issue this big Congress has to sign
off the Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey is one of
the state Republican leaders urging the court to kill the
program
as someone who paid for my school and blood sweat and tears
and service to my nation. That's an issue that's near and dear to
my heart. I'm confident the court will reach reach the right
decision. A confidence
that was bolstered during three hours of arguments has
conservative justices seems skeptical that President Biden
could single handedly forgive student debt for 95% of
borrowers.
Adam Curry: I think most casual observers would say, Whoa, I
didn't know it was 95% of bar borrowers. That seemed like it
was a lot less last time they were talking about this 95%.
That's a lot.
Unknown: If I percent of borrowers,
I think most casual observers would say if you're going to
give up that much amount of money if you're going to affect
the obligations of that many Americans on a subject that's of
great controversy. They would think that's something for
Congress to act on.
But liberal justices said the law gave the administration
power to act during national emergencies like COVID,
there's 50 million students who are will benefit from this who
today will struggle.
But the Republican leaders who are fighting to stop the Biden
plan, say all that debt cancellation will cause their
state's money. A decision in this case is expected by the end
of June.
Adam Curry: How will it cost the state's money?
John C Dvorak: I have no idea. A couple of things are the guy who
number of observers in the market have said that this is
like you know, rewarding bad behavior because it was stupid
to take out some of these loans and people were taking them out
left and right and encouraged to do so. They didn't have to pay
for these loans during COVID. So there's that that excuse is
over. And supposedly we have the lowest unemployment ever so
people can get jobs. And making $125,000 a year should give you
enough leeway in most situations to start paying off the loan at
whatever rate that you can pay it off at. The other thing is
AMI that AMI Comey, Berry Kony whatever it may be Coney
Barrett, she's turning out to be a bad actor. Really? Yeah. She
wants to just the number of cases that have gone through and
she's always showing up as kind of on the wrong side of the
argument. And I'm thinking she's gonna turn out to be a bad
justice.
Adam Curry: Interesting. Interesting. Or maybe just
really fair, and you're biased.
John C Dvorak: No, no, she's not she's not being fair. Okay. I'm
not biased.
Adam Curry: You know that? That's right, straight and
narrow.
John C Dvorak: So talking about court cases.
Adam Curry: Wait, wait, I want to play Randy Randy wind gardens
outrage clip. She's Randi Weingarten. Oh, only the boss of
the teachers union, only one of the biggest donators to the
Democratic Party Democrat Party. She's outraged about what about
this about the student loans? Listen to her logic,
Unknown: and frankly, and this is what really pisses me off.
Joy. We understood this. Businesses were hurting, and we
have them go to the supreme court to challenge it. Every
house didn't go to the supreme court to challenge it, all of a
sudden, it's about our students. They challenge the corporations
challenge. The student loan lenders challenge it. Is that
right? Is that fair?
Adam Curry: She's pretty worked up over this.
John C Dvorak: There are other aspects of this that people
don't want to face a new would be at the benefit for the
state's teachers unions. But even though they don't really
have much impact in the university system, this will
just encourage tuition hikes. Yes, exactly.
Adam Curry: That's what it always does. So maybe it's all
just a gimme for Randy.
John C Dvorak: I mean, that would make some sense. Yeah.
Adam Curry: But it's gonna be they say, conservative estimates
half a trillion dollars, it'll probably be more Oh, it'd
John C Dvorak: be No. So it's gonna be over a trillion. Maybe.
I think it's gonna get killed, though. Because John Roberts of
all the people in the court are really irked about this idea
that Biden can do this. And
Adam Curry: why is it he Why does the court even get to do or
have to decide on this?
John C Dvorak: It got bumped up from some lower courts, because
there are some suits, and it just ended up in the Supreme
Court on their desk. And now they have to decide. I think
they I don't even know if they finalize the deciding on even
talking about it, because clearly, Barrett doesn't want to
take the case.
Adam Curry: Yeah, I can understand hot potato.
John C Dvorak: Well, what difference does it make to them?
Like I was watching, watching the podcast, Viva fry, that
Canadian guy.
Adam Curry: Yeah, I didn't like it at all. I know exactly. Which
one you watched the one about Scott. What No. Was it? It was
about Scott Adams. No, it's about James O'Keefe. Right,
Project Veritas.
John C Dvorak: Well, I don't have any clips on whatever that
what you're talking about. Oh,
Adam Curry: okay. So you didn't really watch the whole thing.
Someone gave you a clip of the end?
John C Dvorak: No, no, I got clips here. I watched the whole
thing. I may have skipped past that some of the stuff that was
born.
Adam Curry: Okay. Well, that's very possible. Now. It was a
whole podcast and they had a whole piece about about Project
Veritas in there where they literally I remember that I
remember. Right, where they're literally saying that this was a
boardroom coup, and that this is
John C Dvorak: they were buying they bought it right. They
bought into the bullshit. Big time. Yeah, so I just skipped it
didn't bother me. Okay. And I liked this guy, Robert Barnes.
But I started this is who I went to the clip for for this. This
is the Viva $33. No agenda plug.
Unknown: I don't even know what it's a $33 Rumble rant 117513.
If you haven't already been referred, the last two or three
shows of the no agenda show. The best podcast in the universe
have had small reports about Veritas from a high level at
Veritas to the show. I don't know what it means. The
Adam Curry: Viva fry. Every single time someone brings up no
agenda to him. He forgets about it. He doesn't remember.
Remember, the truckers thing? n a t shirt on anyway. And by the
way, it was Barnes is the one who was unhinged about about the
whole affair. Not diva. Frey was Barnes. He's the one that's all
like, No, this is this is the gonna be lawsuits and the board
is going to be taken down and like, okay,
John C Dvorak: oh, yeah, bar. Yeah, I can see him going that I
just pretty much skipped over that whole thing, because I knew
that I didn't know what you're talking about. No, but he has
some good stuff at the end that I thought was going to do a
little rundown. So I have a few of them here. All right. And one
of them includes a story that I have, and I think people should
I'd like to know if anyone else has done anything about this.
This is Robert Barnes on insurance.
Unknown: We have insurance companies are requiring when you
re up your insurance. Probably most people don't know,
insurance companies are secretly sharing your medical information
with all the other insurance companies to collude in, in my
view, price fix in violation of your privacy rights. What
happened here was they misinterpreted the person's
request. as having certain health problems, he did not have
lied to other insurers including that data in there. So he
couldn't get life insurance from anybody, and only found out
later and had to sue, but in the process outed how private
insurance companies are collusive ly illicitly sharing
your private medical information to make sure that you can't get
qualified insurance.
Adam Curry: Well, that would make sense.
John C Dvorak: It makes sense to me. And especially after the
experience I had personally do tell. So again, do a car wreck
years ago, on or in a rental I was in Phoenix. This is before I
even knew you have clearly baby. And I don't really discuss this
sort of thing. Rental cars to me or cars you can have fun with.
So I got into a wreck, and I got a ticket in Phoenix. And I
couldn't you know, they say you can go you can do. You can get
this wiped off your insurance record by taking a school in
driver's ed or whatever they want to call a traffic school.
And you have to take this course. And so I shopped around,
I saw do that because I don't need this aggravation. So like,
I signed up for the cheapest course it goes in Chinatown,
Oakland. So I go to this class, it's a live class. And this
guy's Chinese guy is good. He never really talked tells you
anything about driving or better driver. And he just tells you
all the dirty tricks that the insurance companies pull to keep
dirt jack up your prices. And he talks about you don't want to do
this, you want it and it's very educational. And then he gets to
the one thing that really got my attention, which was the
insurance companies of the automobile insurance companies
have a single database that they all reference. And if you start
buying from one insurance company and start hopping from
one to the other to the other to get better prices, they
Adam Curry: kick you out,
John C Dvorak: they'll kick you out and Jack your price up,
you'll never get insurance. And I say what, and he's going on
about this in some detail I'm thinking about I'm thinking
about how it is works in the media, because they're always
advertising for customers. And I suppose and get a lot of new
customers but to the insurance company ads for like State Farm
and, and mutual, progressive, progressive. They're all joke
commercials and not even serious. And this is buying
airtime the way the pharmaceutical companies do so
they don't get busted for anything. And so I'm thinking
I'm thinking about this. And so I didn't say we'd go to a lunch
break. And I come back and this is really a shocker. I spent
half the day on this course. I come back, the guy's not coming
back. And I'm given a chance another guy has been arrested.
Adam Curry: That day.
John C Dvorak: He was arrested right there during lunch. And as
somebody who stayed in the room he saw me oh yeah, they came in
a bunch of guys in plainclothes came in, cuffed him and walked
him out. Okay, I'm saying what? So they gave me a shit to go to
get a refund. So I don't didn't pay for the course. And I can go
find someplace else. And I always thought that was
peculiar. And I've always wanted to go back and find that guy.
Because I know what where he was, you know, where he worked
out of it and never couldn't track him down. Because that but
that's what this reminded me of a collusion between his
insurance companies and it working. And again, the media
doesn't investigate anything. And it's just the scams around
us are outrageous. And
Adam Curry: excellent use of the word cit. I don't think anyone
knows what that is anymore.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, shit.
Adam Curry: I love a chip on it. I love a good chip. I did want
to say about just going back previously to the Viva fry 33
mentioned, I appreciate that the producer went through that
trouble to do that. What was kind of disappointing though, is
I got a lot of messages. Hey, Barnes law, Viva Viva fried.
They mentioned no agenda. They mentioned no agenda. And like,
Oh, that's cool. I wonder how you know, it was in response to
the whole Project Veritas, and then you get to it. It's like,
John C Dvorak: oh, we don't know what that is for mentioned. It's
like an ad.
Adam Curry: It was a little bit. Even though the intention, of
course is great. I appreciate it. It was disappointing. It was
a letdown. Like, they don't even know who we are.
John C Dvorak: They don't this is true.
Adam Curry: I was like, Oh, okay. I thought like no, there's
no date, no agenda had the executive director on here's
what he said no, no. Instead, he's like, Oh, I don't know what
ITM means. Okay. Yeah, not that I don't know. Not that I don't
appreciate the Add someone put in there but there's just no
good again, people and people who say that you were mentioned
you were mentioned so often is like one of these like I wasn't
really mentioned. No, just you know, someone else mentioned
John C Dvorak: I say no, no, exactly.
Adam Curry: All right, what else from this fabulous podcast who
don't even know so you're going to talk about what do we have?
John C Dvorak: There's a couple as he's making push them. One of
them. I'll skip and I want to this is kind of interesting. The
White Castle clip I found amusing
Unknown: a big biometric case out of Illinois, Illinois has
its own biometric privacy laws that says if they take your
biometric data, your bio identification data you know,
facial identification, fingerprints, etc, that they can
only do it with your consent, and they can't they can only
share it with your consent. Well White Castle was taking
employees fingerprints without their consent, requiring it in
order to get their paychecks and then sharing it with third
parties without their consent.
This is White Castle the burger place Yeah. Oh my god Harold and
Kumar Go to White Castle I'll never well I'm Boyka I'm going
to burn my DVD is not as
good as Crystal crystal is from Chattanooga. Great little
crystal burgers. Samuel Jackson made his first a thin good good
Midnight Run. I'm not saying they're healthy. They're not
famous Miller organic farm.com healthy, but you know the
burgers but they establish Illinois Supreme Court
established that each time they do it is its own violation. So
White Castle is going to be writing up be pretty soon.
John C Dvorak: Okay, what do you fingerprint your employees?
Unknown: I don't know.
Adam Curry: Why did we have to listen to Barnes and Frey talk
about it was what I want to know.
John C Dvorak: Well, it was a minute and one second out of
your life that you'll never get back.
Adam Curry: I know. I know. Especially since they don't even
know who we are. Why do we spend any more time on them? They
don't love us.
John C Dvorak: So here's a clip I get out of the blue. What is
curry?
Adam Curry: Okay, let's see what this is. What is curry? Is this
like a chat? GPT question or what is this? What is curry?
What is it? Okay. All right.
John C Dvorak: I got the answer. Curry entity.
Unknown: Korea entity. Curry is an entity.
John C Dvorak: Where then hold on is
Adam Curry: it again? Curry is an entity. It's just curious to
me entity.
John C Dvorak: What is it? It is an entity?
Adam Curry: Who is purely is one who is this? Who was speaking
John C Dvorak: to get an expert on curry. Okay. All right. And
then curry what Tina says.
Adam Curry: Curry is a dish. Oh man. Am I supposed to be hearing
douche instead of dish? Is that is that? Is that the idea? You
sunk into a new low really, it's I can't believe let me help you
get into some good clips because I saw that you have them. So
let's start with my one of my favorite topics, which is of
course because we know the real directed energy weapons. We've
got
Unknown: new findings to report on the mysterious ailment called
Havana syndrome affecting us officials stationed abroad. Now
it's the result of a multi year investigation conducted by five
separate agencies. Senior investigative correspondent as
Catherine herridge has been following. Again, Catherine what
they find a girl
Good morning Gail, the agencies found that it's very unlikely
that mysterious neurological symptoms known as Havana
syndrome, are the result of actions by a foreign adversary.
In a comprehensive review, investigators examined more than
1500 reported cases, Symptoms range from dizziness, headaches
and memory loss to cognitive impairments so severe that some
victims say they can no longer work. The new intelligence
report concluded it's very unlikely a foreign adversary
played a role and there is no credible evidence that a foreign
adversary has a weapon. The intelligence agencies also
assess that symptoms were probably the result of factors
that did not involve a foreign adversary such as pre existing
conditions, conventional illnesses and environmental
factors. The Defense Department is running its own investigation
until victims scale that work continues.
John C Dvorak: Notice any theme in that little clip
Adam Curry: go ahead foreign this is exactly what I thought
it's like well it's not from foreigners is no it's not the
Russians not the Chinese but we might have done it to you.
That's what that was my takeaway.
John C Dvorak: That's my take away.
Adam Curry: What are your clips? Let's listen to them.
John C Dvorak: Number two,
Adam Curry: what Havana syndrome to Yeah,
Unknown: how are they responding?
Well, they're very disappointed is as you may expect. Wait.
John C Dvorak: Where did you play that? The Harris clip you
got that from CBS? Yeah, there was my own closure, the NPR
clip. So let's go Those have vanished syndrome one,
Unknown: the US intelligence community has concluded that a
foreign country was not responsible for the so called
Havana syndrome cases involving US officials working overseas.
Now this finding comes as a disappointment US diplomats and
intelligence officials who believe they suffered attacks
and are still dealing with serious ailments. And poor
NATIONAL SECURITY CORRESPONDENT Greg Miry. has been following
this closely. He's here now. Hey, Greg. I'm here, Louise. Hi,
Mary Louise Havana syndrome. I've named that because cases
were first reported in Cuba back in 2016. Does the intelligence
community now believe they know what happened? Well, not
exactly. I think it would be more precise to say the
intelligence community is pretty sure of what didn't happen in
Cuba and several other countries. There it is. This
report is the work of seven different US intelligence
agencies. And they're pretty sure that no foreign adversary
like Cuba, Russia or China is responsible. five of the seven
agencies said it was highly unlikely that a foreign country
was to blame. One said it was unlikely and one didn't take a
position. Now the report goes on to say that there's no credible
evidence that a foreign adversary even has a weapon that
could have inflicted this kind of harm.
This goes against what many people suspected, including a
lot of intelligence officers and diplomats, I have interviewed
who suffered from something and suffer ailments now how are they
responding?
Adam Curry: Here's here's what I don't understand. They bought
these people off. They were supposed to shut up. The we had
the little disgust helping American victims afflicted by
neurological attacks, the Havana act. So a mess so creative.
Helping American victims afflicted by neurological
attacks, was signed in October 2021. That gave employees over
$180,000 each. There were bought off I need to shut up. I don't
understand why that why this is not solved yet. Maybe not
everyone took the deal. Or
John C Dvorak: no, I don't think I thought this you're quoting
this guy was from when the when these reports first came out? I
think they have shut up.
Unknown: Interesting. But what they're
John C Dvorak: doing now is they're still trying to still
trying to explain it or something. And they come up with
this bullcrap. And this next clip, which makes it even they
dig a deeper hole.
Unknown: How are they responding?
Well, they're very disappointed is as you may expect, they
remain convinced they suffered an attack. They've speculated it
was possibly some kind of energy weapon, maybe a microwave
device. But they acknowledge they don't have proof. Many
Adam Curry: recall the exists directed energy weapon you do.
Let's get it right that
Unknown: moment when they suffered a sharp piercing pain
in their head, which caused them to be dizzy or nauseous or
suffer migraine headaches. They say they'd never had these
problems before. And now they've had them for years. I've been in
contact with two of them who didn't want to speak on the
record. But I spoke with attorney Mark Zaid, he's
representing more than two dozen clients and says he has had
access to some of the classified information.
I can at least say the US government has a lot more
information than what it is publicly revealing today. And
that is where a lot of the unanswered questions arise from
so on, looked at two intelligence officials briefed a
small number of journalist on this report, but they didn't
share the contents of the actual report itself. Because that's
still classified. Yeah,
Adam Curry: she ah, hold on thought here. Since I mean, we
may be witnessing an FBI CIA knockout draw ball Brawl here.
You know, we have FBI, the one saying, Well, you know, it's
pretty obvious COVID came from a lab we hear CIA immediately
countering that. Maybe because the CIA is the one who used
directed energy weapons on our own State Department personnel.
Maybe the FBI is the one that's getting this this back into the
news, because it could be the age old war.
John C Dvorak: Well, this age old war is interesting to me
because of this one TV show that came out a couple of years ago,
which one and Dick Wolf came over to? I guess it was CBS and
he started this or, or that or NBC. He started this new series
instead of law and order this natus FBI. So he started one
with the FBI and just FBI became right then it became an FBI
International, which was a second show and add a third show
which was FBI Simelane
Adam Curry: International. Isn't that an oxymoron?
John C Dvorak: Yeah, FBI internationals above the FBI, a
team of FBI people that are stationed overseas and they do
investigations overseas like like to see it. Don't even like
to say there's just spooks, the FBI When did FBI internet and I
think this was the soften up to public to come up with the show
FBI International. FBI International is a mysterious
show. Why is it exist? And what in what When did FBI become an
international operation? And you start seeing the FBI was brought
in, I think the FBI was brought in for this Syrian gas canister
attack or whatever it was, if you remember, the FBI is now in
you know, they're doing the job of the CIA.
Adam Curry: So FBI International was indeed on CBS.
John C Dvorak: Tokyo, CBS still on the interesting because it
hasn't been taken off. That's the CIA
Adam Curry: broadcast network. I find this very distressing now.
Well, I don't pretty okay, so Well, the BBC has a pretty good
rundown before we go, let's
John C Dvorak: get that third clip out of the way. Okay.
Unknown: And so in a way, it remains as much of a mystery as
it ever was. I mean, if it wasn't a foreign government, if
no electronic weapon was used, then what caused these injuries?
Well, the intelligence official said the individual cases vary,
but collectively, they were probably pre existing medical
conditions, conventional illness, or environmental
factors. The intelligence official said they didn't find
what they were looking for that a foreign adversary was behind
this. But they did learn a lot of things they weren't looking
for, for example, a faulty air conditioning system or heating
system can cause changes to room pressure, and this could cause
headaches. And so as they were investigating, they they came
across things like weapons dealers and drugs dealers near
the scene. But again, nothing that linked anybody to to the
ailments that these US officials suffered.
Still so many questions and not a lot of answers. I'm curious.
Greg Murray. Thank you,
Adam Curry: like you MPR for delivering nothing. Okay, the
BBC has a pretty good rundown. I guess they saw the documents
about this. And there's some telling information in this
report from them. The victims have included intelligence
officers. We haven't heard that have we? Military and State
Department staff and high level aides to government figures such
as vice president Kamala Harris. Of the seven participating
agencies of which no report mentions which ones they are?
Five, and they're 17. I think, five agreed that, quote,
available intelligence consistently points against the
involvement of us adversaries in causing reported incidents, and
that it is, quote, very unlikely. So again, the you
know, it wasn't any any foreign. No, has anyone foreign levels of
competence between participating agencies, however, vary, the
report noted that two agencies have moderate to high confidence
in the assessment, while three have moderate confidence, quote,
One Agency judges, it is only unlikely a foreign adversary
played a role. And as only low competence in this judgment. I'm
telling you that there's zappin each other.
John C Dvorak: Well, let's see, let's look at it from that
perspective. You're somebody in the agency or somebody, you're
an assistant to somebody else, and you're getting out a line,
Adam Curry: Jeff zap that bitch.
John C Dvorak: And you see what happened, then you go to some
sec, what happened to so and so right is just sleeping in a room
at the hotel, just there by themselves.
Adam Curry: Wow. An assessment like this is an assessment based
on the best information available to us at any time.
This is net price at any new information will be factored
into future assessments about the disease. Now it's a disease
all of a sudden. But when you have when you pass a bill called
the helping American victims afflicted by neurological
attacks, the Havana act, you know, when you name it, that
you've pretty much concluded that it was a neurological
attack. So I really think this is the, you know, we have 1716
or 17 intelligence agencies in the intelligence community, and
they're duking it out. The CIA is downplaying the, you know, is
downplaying China problems, you know, in certain regards. FBI is
is is hyping him up we have the savannah syndrome on on, you
know, she had moment, we're not being told which agencies think
it wasn't such a big deal. We're being told by others clearly.
Well, it was probably from our own people doing that. And then
when you hear that it was intelligence agents and high
ranking officials of including the Vice President, there may be
something bigger going on behind the scenes here. And it's big
enough for people off the record to be telling NPR Oh, this you
got to do the story on this and they get nothing out of it. So
why is it even a story? It must be because they're trying.
They're trying to Duke this out. I'd leave it at that for now. I
meant that really seems like that's what's happening.
John C Dvorak: Well, there's no other explanation. That's that
makes sense. Why we know these agencies are always kind of
going after each other a little bit. Yeah. For the money, not
just for the money, but for the you know, the influence. Of
course,
Adam Curry: maybe maybe the CIA is pissed off. Hey, why does FBI
get an international TV series from Dick Wolf? Screw that,
where we want to show
John C Dvorak: now that you brought this on CBS makes you
wonder?
Adam Curry: Yeah, yeah. And CBS did it.
John C Dvorak: Yeah. Why was CBS put that on the air? Maybe
that's what really irked him.
Adam Curry: It's irksome enough.
John C Dvorak: Okay. You guys are working for us. What do you
do in here? Yeah, it just will kick wolf makes money. Yeah.
Adam Curry: Oh, yeah. Oh, he knows how to do it. A quick,
some feedback on pod fasting. This is my plea to our listeners
to not listen to podcasts at anything above the 1.0 speed.
And it's not about us, by the way. It's about your family and
the people around you who you love, love. Love them by
retreat. And
John C Dvorak: a good note came in a couple of good notes. What
Adam Curry: did you get from from Andras? I don't have it in
front of me. Andre says Hi, gents, after listening to the
latest episode hearing about variable speed causing people to
be short with wife and kids as well as anxiety. I have changed
back to one times at 1.0 times on all just after one day, I can
feel the difference. It's interesting. You bullied me into
it. And I'm grateful. We did. And then I got an explanation
from Dean because I said, you know, why do you? Most people
say hey, you know what? You're right. I'm back to regular 1.0
speed on no agenda. But I still listen at high speed to other
podcasts. And I said why? Why Why would is just because I
asked, or what is the reason that you have these other
podcasts at high speed? And the answer was very consistent. When
it's done poorly, and no one's done properly. You know, a good
podcast, I listened at normal speed. But some people on these
podcasts speak so slowly, I'm falling asleep in between every
other word. They constantly repeat themselves, and they
ramble on about crap, completely unrelated to the topic. And they
are they're selling some stuff. And, you know, it's like, they
just don't get to the point. And my question is always the same.
Why are you listening to it? Why? And it's not news or
deconstruction. It's no, it's
John C Dvorak: just guys gabbing it's just people gabbing Yeah,
dipshits gabbing.
Adam Curry: It doesn't sound healthy.
John C Dvorak: You know, people love podcasts.
Adam Curry: They really do. But, I mean, there there are people
who wake up and boom, the earbuds are in, it's on high
speeds, I can get all kinds of information. And meanwhile,
they're, you know, they're scrolling on tick tock, you've
got telegram stuff to take a look at. Oh, let's follow we
gotta follow all that telegram is so bad. This conspiracy
conspiracy theories in there that I won't even touch. Like,
are you crazy? I mean, anyway, I can't affect that. But I can, I
can try and save your sanity, particularly with the people
around you, many who you love. You might not love your kids.
But I realize there's enough evidence that you get fed up and
antsy and you can't wait for someone in real life to get to
the point because you're used to everything being sped up so much
that it should be illegal really. should be illegal.
should be should be illegal to be illegal.
John C Dvorak: So I'm listening to CNBC. Okay, it's kind of my
beat. But yeah, what you got? It is your beat. I imagine they're
out of the blue they give this a news story is a 92nd clip.
native ad is a native ad on CNBC for Shake Shack
Unknown: and Shake Shack is set to introduce a new menu item
later this week. The fast food chain plans to unveil a limited
edition fine dining inspired white truffle menu by featuring
a burger and fries with a white truffle sauce. The CEO said he
hopes to have the menu in place for two to three months,
depending on demand.
John C Dvorak: The kind of news well, it's financial news you
somebody changes their menu is not news
Adam Curry: for the financial channel is like alright, we're
so desperate to get people to eat more of our crap. What can
we do? I know put some white crap on it. Call it truffle.
Let's be honest truth. What would a white truffle actual
shavings of a truffle cost on an on a burger?
John C Dvorak: Well, if there were actual shavings of an
actual white truffle be at least $1 Shave. Exactly.
Adam Curry: So so whatever, they're whatever they're pouring
onto your burger. Whatever white sauce I would be wearing
official or SCA force is going to be artificial. Like probably
like most of the ingredients that are in the burger. No.
John C Dvorak: Well, on the topic of artificial
Adam Curry: Yes. Is it time to talk about Scott Adams? Um, so
John C Dvorak: I don't have any Scott Adams clips. Oh, I do. But
I do have information, man. But I wanted to play this clip. Just
Camela tell me what she says here and what and then check it
out.
Adam Curry: Oh, my Where's cow camel. Okay, here we go.
Unknown: So I want to just now do a public service announcement
and I need all the leaders here to help me. Okay. Okay. To check
if you qualify for the ACP Look at your neighbor. If you
qualify, go to get internet.gov to check if you qualify go to
internet.gov.
Adam Curry: Yeah, okay. So I don't know what the ACP is. But
I can type in check. internet.gov which she then said
something Okay, check that
John C Dvorak: said just internet.gov. Yeah, which will
check you know, such site. She doesn't know what she's talking
about. She's a lunatic check. internet.gov
Adam Curry: is not a site. internet.gov is not a site. What
is the ACP and as
John C Dvorak: some think is some one of those systems where
you get money back for having something to do with COVID?
Perhaps?
Adam Curry: Well, instead of just sounding like every other
podcasts, I've consulted the book of knowledge. ACP is access
to high speed internet. This is the affordable connectivity
program.
John C Dvorak: Oh, good. Which provides that's an obvious you'd
go to internet.gov.
Adam Curry: That's right, which provides $65 billion, billion
dollars to provide internet for all you will kind of wonder if
Elon Musk is getting a piece of that.
John C Dvorak: It was his government money. And so she
Adam Curry: said opposer is always wrong in two cases. Let's
rewind it.
Unknown: Go to get internet.gov
Adam Curry: That's the one it is get internet.gov. Yes, that is a
real site.
Unknown: To check. If you qualify, go to internet.gov.
Adam Curry: That is not a real site. Get internet.gov. Claim
your affordable connectivity program benefit. Learn how
President Biden and vice president hairs are reducing the
cost of high speed internet and find out if you qualify to sign
up. Okay, how can you qualify? Household Income Internet
Service Providers low income plan or government assistance
program? Oh, nice. So I wonder who this goes to T Mobile. Now.
Elon,
John C Dvorak: T Mobile AT and T is gonna be like Comcast for
Comcast.
Adam Curry: Yeah. Hmm. All right. So Scott Adams. He, he's
really trying to prove a point. And from what I understand,
well, first of all, we know that he's always manipulating people
he's always doing, you know, I'm sorry. What's his term? Not
influencing influence. No, no, no, no, no, no, it's another day
says persuasion Persuasion. Persuasion. Because you know,
he's a, he's a hypnotist, a trained hypnotist. He's so he
believes. I think he believes he could persuade people to see
that the media is racist, and that they're just racist against
everybody. And now they're very racist against white people.
John C Dvorak: Fine people,
Adam Curry: very fine people. And to do this, he set up a
gambit. And the gambit was okay, I'm going to make sure that I
say something really inflammatory. But without the
context of what I was saying, it'll be just like the very fine
people hoax. And so what is what is interesting is that even
though he and he went on Hotep and he says, Look, I'm really a
lefty. I, I believe that black lives matter. until I found out
it was a grift it was a scam and they really didn't want any help
from me. He's He's done all kinds of things throughout his
and privately apparently. So he feels that he is a lefty, which
may also be some bullcrap thing he's made up, and and he was
prognosticating. I'm gonna get cancelled because he wanted to
get cancelled to prove the point. And I guess somehow, you
know, retired Dilbert or or move that into some incredibly profit
profitable venture with locals. Fine. So I don't think is this
was packing unpacking the way he wanted it to. And the reason why
I think that is because I went to my favorite hate listen, you
know, the woman who you trained yourself, but go ahead, Kara
Swisher and Scott Galloway, to hear what their take was on
Scott Adams. These are, of course, highly skilled.
Journalists, Kara Swisher feels she is very smart, that she
knows everything about everybody and that she is an actual
journalist. And and she should mention trained by John C.
Dvorak in some of her podcasting, mannerisms, and this
must be very disappointing to Scott to hear how they hate him.
I mean, hate him.
Unknown: Listen to this, click. I'm two minds of this. And the
definition of intelligence, according to Scott Fitzgerald,
is to have two kind of contrary thoughts in your mind at the
same time, and
Adam Curry: just so we know. Yeah, Scott Galloway is
brilliant, just so you know, he's just love this setup. Just
so you know, I have I'm of two minds of this. And that's the
definition of intelligence. So I'm really intelligent. And
here's my opinion,
Unknown: like, I'm two minds of this. And the definition of
intelligence, according to Scott Fitzgerald, is to have two kind
of contrary thoughts in your mind at the same time, and I'm
sort of, like I ultimately come down on the place that a
newspaper gets to make editorial decisions. That's correct. We
live in an age where your off camera behavior can impact
people's perception of your on camera work.
Adam Curry: So they don't even really realize that this was on
camera or something. I don't know. They're talking about
Dilbert being cancelled from all these newspapers. And so they're
trying to kind of rationalize that, but don't worry, it'll get
pretty, pretty dark pretty soon.
Unknown: And he is always finding reasons for why, you
know, Black Lives Matter movement was wrong. And when he
comes out it makes a blanket statement like black people are
a hate group.
He said White people shouldn't it shouldn't be we around them
and should we should avoid each other was
you lost a brother?
I know he's done that a lot. He goes off the D he's done that to
me. Exact same thing.
Adam Curry: So hold us personalises he's done that to
me. I mean, already, they do it to her. She has no example of
that she's you know, if you don't bow to Kara Swisher You're
an asshole. Believe me. This is what how she thinks of people.
These are of course the liberal intellectual elite. The lies
Unknown: very smart. But man, it's not that good. Scott is not
not the other Scott, not you. You know what? It's good, but
you're not fucking that good. And by the way, you're a racist.
I'm sorry. It's just there's just like, I don't use that term
lightly. But honestly,
Adam Curry: I don't use that term lightly go out of
Unknown: your way. He actually you know what, you're you're an
asshole. That's what you you know, you he does, he goes out
of his way to tweak people to get a to promote reaction to
make people angry, this guy goes out of his way to be an asshole.
And if the newspapers want to dump them for saying stupid
things, more of it, as far as I'm concerned, they can put
whoever they want in their patients.
But in this instance, he's a very wealthy man. He's going to
be just fine. And he has been like, poking the bear here for a
long, long time he wants to, and he doesn't want to have
solutions. He doesn't want to talk thoughtfully about it. He
wants to make to kind of incendiary comments to inflame
the dialogue and make it less productive bomb thrower have no
use to supporting Kanye. He has a lot of weight. He's a huge
Elon sent
him. You saw
he's one of those people that will throw himself in front of
anybody who says anything about Elon.
I know. So look, brains, called Scott Adams. I'll tell you you
got a good brain too bad.
The natural arc of his career, and I don't, he's a brilliant,
he's a brilliant animator. He's made a shit ton of money. He's
had a lot of influence. He said consistently, things that are
not productive, and even borderline hateful. And I don't
like to use that word a lot. Because it's like if you just
take all of these frames. I think you've got to take the
full 35 frames of a person's life.
Adam Curry: This is the part I love. Yeah, you got to take the
full 35 frames of a film memo it's 24 frames is 35 millimeter
film, but it's 24 frames, not 35 frames,
Unknown: not only to use that word a lot, because it's like if
you just take all of these frames of a film, I think you
got to take the full 35 frames of a person's life. And if you
found the whole they've tried to advance the rights of people,
and they're generally consistent and thoughtful and they fuck up.
Okay, you you cut him some slack. And one of the things I
don't like sometimes is people say, That's it. One strike,
you're out. That's not the case here.
Adam Curry: I mean, that must be heartbreaking. This guy to hear
this. If he's truly a lefty. And then there's hatred. Now, I
John C Dvorak: can tell you a couple things. One, he doesn't
vote. But he's kind of a political. And so yeah, he's
probably leans he would lean a little bit left. Maybe. I'm just
Adam Curry: telling you why. He said this. He said it loud and
clear on Hotep. I'm a lefty. That's what he said his word.
John C Dvorak: Yeah. Well, it doesn't mean he means it. Oh,
okay. Well,
Adam Curry: there you go.
John C Dvorak: He said, I contacted him. He says not to
worry about what's going on. He's playing a long game.
Adam Curry: Yeah, that's what I thought. Do you think he can
pull it off? No, me? Neither. Did you say hey, you can't pull
it off?
John C Dvorak: No, I didn't say that. You're just playing the
long game. I don't know. I don't know if he can pull it off or
not really. But it just seems like the situation is such that
it's going to be tough. And I noticed that what what was kind
of annoying to me was the newspapers that cut off the
Dilbert cartoon. And so I'm reading this one article, and
they talked about the Chronicle edit guy over here in San
Francisco, the editor of the Chronicle, which is a Hearst
paper has been dropping him loves to rep it to her score.
Bridges seems to be getting very woke. And they said, Oh, we
canceled his just strip and by the way, he's a cartoonist, not
an animator, like Galloway said, yeah, you mentioned that he's
not an animator. He says y'all know he cut him off because he
was going off the deep end with right wing conspiracy stuff.
Right and, and I think the example was the was his ear is
which are funny. His ESG cartoons. Scott did an ESG
cartoon where they hire a black guy identifies as white so that
screws their ESG up and so they get in another meeting and
another cartoonist tries to convince the black guy well, if
at least can you identify as gay get our ESG score up. That kind
of thing with Noi. I'm editors of some organizations and I
think the Chronicle would be one of them. Well, I wonder
Adam Curry: how long it will last until YouTube blows him
off. Once he's off. YouTube is going to be hard. This is what I
think he's he's he's underestimating.
John C Dvorak: Yes, he's really actually does I believe I'm he
do believe. I do believe I do believe that. He thinks he can
survive at that level on rumble and locals.
Adam Curry: Well, he can survive doing nothing for the rest of
his life. I mean, I think he probably has hundreds of
millions of dollars.
John C Dvorak: But I just thought it was like disgraceful
that his agent quit him what? Agents but with no hearts or
souls, not all of us
Adam Curry: know. The agents don't want to lose the other
clients. That's why they have to like let them go. Because
clients be like, you represent Scott Adams, you're fired. Now
agents are all about themselves. So that does why anyway, I wish
him well on the long game. I'll give Kara Swisher this he all he
does is manipulate people all it's always a game to him. So
good luck from zero and
John C Dvorak: we'll get to watch it. And
Adam Curry: no, we want that problem. We won't get to watch
John C Dvorak: less. You got well, we got Rumble. Rumble
Adam Curry: rumble. All right. COVID. Just a few few things.
Keep everybody in line with what's going on. There was some
testimony in congress this past week and the head of the CDC
walensky. She testified about the reason that COVID vaccines
were put on the children's schedule now according to the
man who literally wrote the book, Robert Kennedy Jr. The
reason for this is once you get it on the schedule, then you
know your immunity is good forever your immunity from being
sued. You don't have to have anything under emergency laws.
You're or you're you're in the program, you'll always get
money. It's a long term thing is what you want is what you want.
And will MC gives a very different explanation. So
Unknown: how do you view the cost benefit of scheduling brand
new by valen booster shots for this age group, you know,
considering the children are very low risk from COVID 19 75%
of children have already copped a virus and the vaccine is known
to do pretty little to prevent transmission in this age group.
I'm really grateful that you asked that question so that I
can correct the record here so that everybody understands.
First of all, we've had 2000 pediatric deaths from COVID 19.
It's the number one respiratory and infectious killer that was
just published last week in JAMA. So less, in fact, less
deadly than in to an 80 year old but still deadly for a pediatric
infection. The important thing, I think that's really that we
need to recognize is the reason that ACP recommended and CDC put
forward getting the COVID-19 vaccine on the pediatric
schedule is not it was only because it was it was the only
way it could be covered in our vaccines for children's program.
It was the only way that our under uninsured children would
be able to have access to the vaccines. That was the reason to
put it on the schedule. It can't be eligible for vaccines for
children's program for to be available to the under uninsured
unless it is on that schedule. That was the reason to put it
there. Thank you for allowing me to crack.
Adam Curry: Wow, what a what a bunch of crap that
John C Dvorak: you really rattled that off nicely. Thank
Adam Curry: you for letting me correct the record. Yeah. And he
goes, thank you. Okay,
John C Dvorak: no, no, double Vax, double boosted Savannah
Guthrie got COVID COVID time during the show she had to go
home third time. Third COVID infection.
Adam Curry: Should you have any kind of questions about the
COVID vaccine creating Hardy issues? You are really, really
stupid, if you think that has anything to do with the vaccine.
Unknown: Welcome back, everyone. Dr. Jenn joins us now with a
very interesting topic that affects a lot of people, I found
this interesting. One in five American adults actually uses
cannabis and new data shows that daily cannabis use is actually
in increased risk of cardiovascular disease, coronary
artery disease.
So clogging of the arteries. And this is an abstract, so very
preliminary data that is presented at the annual meeting
for the American College of Cardiology, it represents one of
the largest and longest term studies to date. That's one of
the reasons why it's important, but found that people who
admitted to using daily cannabis, what and it didn't
distinguish, by the way, whether it was inhaled, smoked or
ingested. And
Adam Curry: even if it's gummies, not just smoking, if
it's gum eatable for
Unknown: him, but increase their risk of coronary artery disease
by 34%. Even if they took into account other factors like age,
and race, so there's still a lot of questions here, you know, in
terms of time interval training to see an increased risk with
increase in use, because they looked at like never users once
in a while, weekly, daily, daily had the most risk. But I think
what's really important here is that you know, whether it's
recreational or medicinal, this is here to stay. It's much more
common. It's not an all or none thing. It's completely safe
versus completely dangerous. We just need more data. And this
study goes a long way for that.
Adam Curry: Oh, we just need more data. Oh, sure. It's all we
need just more data, and we'll figure it out, even if it's an
edible. Now, there may be some truth to the matter. That if you
get really high off some edibles, and you start eating
Krispy Kreme Doughnuts and yodels Yeah, okay, now you're
talking. But that's not in the study, as far as I know. But
here's a better one. CBS has the answer.
Unknown: In tonight's Healthwatch researchers from the
Cleveland Clinic are sounding the alarm about a popular zero
calorie sugar substitute called a risk for tall. In a study of
more than 4000 people including many who had cardiovascular
issues. Researchers found those who had the highest levels of
this artificial sweetener in their blood had a heightened
risk of heart attack stroke and death. Researchers caution
though that more study on this sweetener is still needed.
Adam Curry: So is this a Ruth Ruth trawl that by the way, I
hear this this is a big big topic all of a sudden, even
Darren O'Neill was talking about it. Is this a hit job on some
new sweetener from the sugar industry or NutraSweet or one of
these guys what is a withdrawals? Sounds like
something you'd know about
John C Dvorak: it's the type of sugar that is that's not
digestible and it's already been a major product for it's a
splendid I think is okay. I don't know whether they'd be
doing a hit job on it, to be honest about it because there's
nothing there's nothing new coming down the pike.
Adam Curry: Then it's just to explain the obvious. Now we got
to have reasons Reasons for the, for the cardiovascular issues,
maybe hit your gummies whatever it is, in general. There's a lot
going on in the in the pharmaceutical industry and and
the same doctor Jen Ashton, who I just consider to be an
extended mouthpiece and a promo person. This is from a couple of
weeks ago, I just dug it up. This is about micro dosing and
not anything produced by big pharma. Dr. Jen
Unknown: joins us now with a topic. I'm actually a little
surprised we're talking about even though it's such a huge
trend right now.
Adam Curry: Yeah, because, you know, normally we don't talk
about anything that's not Pfizer related. We're talking about
Unknown: micro dosing, mushrooms, moms across the
country are using them to treat anxiety and depression. I want
your medical opinion, in some cases,
some Postpartum Mood Disorders. It was an article that got my
attention, recently published in The Washington Post about this
trend, this fad. But we're talking about the use of
psychedelics. recreationally, but also, therapeutically, we've
talked here about it in it's really exploding in the field of
psychiatry, in controlled research settings, really as a
way to treat or manage PTSD, extreme anxiety or major
depression. But now, your point is that a lot of new moms are
reaching for things like mushrooms or psilocybin,
reaching micro doses. But again, what that micro dose is, is a
big question mark, as a way to kind of manage mood disorders.
So I think it's a very interesting phenomenon. There's
a lot of interesting science behind it. But it is sweeping
the country in terms of its recreational use, and it's very,
very unregulated right now, and let's be clear,
mushrooms are only legal in Oregon and Colorado, they are
still illegal across the country,
they're still illegal. And a lot of people in different age
groups are really using these substances much more than
they're using things like alcohol and cannabis. So we will
definitely stay on top of it. But you know, obviously, new
moms and postpartum mood disorders is a very serious
issue. But we need good data to go through management and
treatment options, whether it's how safe it is and what the
issue is, versus benefit that it always comes down to that.
Adam Curry: So I found this really interesting because I
agree there is a there is a trend sweeping the nation not of
I haven't heard much from new moms, I think that may be just a
red herring to get the get the conversation started to bring
everybody back to where we want them which is on
antidepressants, that's where we want you knew mom's postpartum
depression, you want the anti depression drug, and you want
the one that picks you up from the anti depression drug and of
course, you want the stuff that will unclog your your bowels
from the anti depression drug. And, and and now you want some
some other stuff to make sure that you can you still have sex
drive. But it is mainly affluent women, with children, teenage
children, children in school who are doing this, and there's you
can get very expensive tours to go to different, you know, like
the Caribbean, and you can do psilocybin or IO Aashka This is
a big one under supervision $10,000 A trip, you know, they
stay in very high end hotels, and it's a small group it's
under supervision is is something is going on with this,
which they're not they're identifying it incorrectly about
new moms. But this is a real thing. And I hear a lot about
it.
John C Dvorak: Well, this isn't again, I'm getting more deja vu
out of this. Because in 2017 This was actually a topic in the
spin off from The Good Wife show. Oh, and it was on TV. This
was getting their destiny that that sitcom that was showing on
one of the spin off channels like CBS plus or NBC plus one of
his bullshit operations. And they were talking about it there
because the lead the actress was micro dosing, but it was at the
time in 2017. It was LSD. Right? They were micro dosing on. So as
a new story really, this isn't reintroducing it for some
reason.
Adam Curry: It's not well, no one's doing LSD DMT specifically
IO Aashka. And, and psilocybin.
John C Dvorak: I remember in 2017 they were talking about
micro dosing LSD,
Adam Curry: I'm sure then but yeah. I don't know it. I think
people are searching, searching for something. They're not
getting what they want.
John C Dvorak: They just because they don't listen to the right
podcast. And
Adam Curry: with that, I'd like to thank you for your courage in
the morning to you the man who put the seat in the CIT ladies
and gentlemen say hello to my friend on the other on the one
and only Mr. John Cena
John C Dvorak: Good morning to you Mr. Carlson. She boots on
the ground feet in the air subs in the water and all the games
and nights out there.
Adam Curry: Yes in the morning. So are the trolls and the troll

John C Dvorak: Lowly to see 19 All right,
Adam Curry: well, I don't know what happened to your trolls.
You should bring in some more trolls you'd like to see 19
That's the word the official word. Of course many of these
trolls you can also find or reach or follow on no agenda
social.com which I also will say is getting a little rowdy. know
people are a little unhinged. Have you seen any of this
behavior or no agenda? social.com
John C Dvorak: some lead to any new extreme. Just I see I've
always been you know, I bought blog so many people die people
you should have blocked.
Adam Curry: Yeah, and I think that you know, because people
are leaving like, Well, someone said something offensive. Why
don't you just blow that's
John C Dvorak: good.
Adam Curry: And then, and by the way, stop DMing me I do not
respond to DMS on no agenda social.com
John C Dvorak: Well, you know, I said this myself. I just don't
notice them because they don't have a low A flag. There's no
flag I don't know a
Adam Curry: damn came here very hard to see that
John C Dvorak: it's a little did I click on it by accident, or on
accident as the millennials would say. So I click on an on
accident. Boom is a bunch of DMS at all backed up.
Adam Curry: Yeah, do not DM us if you got something to say say
it in public. If you'd like now,
John C Dvorak: you can DM me if you want. I'm not that picky.
Everyone's but you might not hear from me for months.
Adam Curry: It's at John C. Dvorak. You can DM him as much
as you want.
John C Dvorak: Good if you do not hear me for months yeah, I'm
Adam Curry: not gonna respond at all. If you got something to say
Say it out in the open. Now the I don't like what's happening
here mean anything the enemy DM I got no time for that. Block,
mute, mute a good one to mute block. Do that. But don't go to
the to the to the main timeline. If you're afraid of stuff, you
get triggered by stuff. But there's also just a lot of
people just posting memes all day long. Oh my goodness. It
costs a lot of disk space. People don't care. And we have
to charge him. God bless Aaron our man. God bless him for
managing that whole thing. You guys are very unthankful
ungrateful. What it takes to run that was crazy
John C Dvorak: and thankful.
Adam Curry: Well, they just use up resources not taking into any
consideration what it takes when when you make certain actions
particularly in the in the way Macedon works. It just takes up
tons of space. And people want to have this now with after two
weeks, you should delete it. We have to I mean, this terabytes,
terabytes and terabytes and terabytes and the bandwidth is
off the hook. It's a very inefficient system. And we only
have 10,000 people. You know, maybe we shouldn't chop it in
half do 5000 How about that make you in charge of make you in
charge of picking the 5000
John C Dvorak: I got nothing to do.
Adam Curry: Follow us out of a no agenda. social.com Jhansi
Dvorak at no agenda social.com Seriously, it's it is a great
place to hang out. But you know, sometimes people get a little
pissed off at each other. You can just tell the people who are
listening at higher speeds to the podcast are unruly. There's
something going on with them. Let's thank the artists for
episode 1533 titled rage bait, think it was perfect. Oh, and
yes, I remember this. I remember exactly why we chose this one is
a great piece of art, which was done by correct a record. A
beautiful deep fake sign young multicolored girl hanging
holding up the sign no 15 minutes cities or one 1.5 Speed
podcasts I thought that was very appropriate. There was something
else we looked at that we liked though.
John C Dvorak: There was a number of pieces that were
decent. We were the one we you wanted initially was the shift
into into G now that's the one they wanted capitalist agenda.
Adam Curry: You liked that one. I did like it kind of like
tissue but it was so small.
John C Dvorak: The Yeah, the RG thing was too small. And the
Adam Curry: thing is if you don't see the title of the art,
which only shows up on no agenda, art generator.com Then
you don't know that it's like shift into G All I saw was the
33 shift pattern. I thought that was cool. I thought it was a
nice piece. Otherwise what I liked were too I liked slow
agenda with the the sloth.
John C Dvorak: Which you hated Tom to kneel didn't hate it. I
just You said
Adam Curry: I hate shot. Well, you literally said I hate that
one. And no agenda. No merch was cute with a broken cup. I liked
that one. You didn't feel much for that.
John C Dvorak: Going back to the no one five by corrector record
they got to win. I think there was a flaw in the piece noticing
it after the fact no detail. says no 15 minutes cities or 1.5
Speed podcasts. It should be 1.5x.
Adam Curry: Yeah, that's okay. Good point. Good point. Well, we
can we can dethrone him take it off and deleted a lot of work.
See what else was there? A couple of Ohio things. Was this
Oh, yep. Ohio was Renu Paris. But you know, it's like without
people don't even know what the state of Ohio looks like. I
agree. I don't think the gag would would go over we're very
well. Greta wound on with a Greta thing was there
John C Dvorak: is there was no I did this piece one. It was
simple did the trick is you know someone holding up a sign then
putting some some it's easy to go beyond the sign is not the
most creative thing in the world. But it worked. It did. It
did. Man we certainly appreciate I mean, Paul Couture's art
actual art next to it. And above it. Who was probably better,
technically, but now.
Adam Curry: The which was the graffiti, graffiti spray? Can I
mean the problem with that, Sir Paul is too small. It's just too
small, because it would look great hung up as a poster. But
you know, you, you look at the even if I look at it, when
blowed up big and big. And it's hard to read. It's beautiful
piece, you know, something deconstruction, yellow. I mean,
there's SEO established 2007, which relates to the pies a
beautiful piece, but it's too small. We always run into this.
It's so interesting that artists don't follow that or don't,
don't. They don't it's not landing. Could you say it?
Maybe, maybe, maybe you have a better way of explaining it to
them.
John C Dvorak: It has to be more readable,
Adam Curry: okay. readable on a small just go look at podcast
and
John C Dvorak: I blow it up and I can't read what's on the can
go look at
Adam Curry: a podcast app and then see how small that that
image is? Yeah. Especially on a phone very, very small. Yeah, on
a phone, it's going to be very small. It's not going to be your
your, your five, what is it? 526 It's going to be 250 or 520 is
gonna be 256. That's the biggest you're gonna see it and that's
what you're gonna have to go off of. And that's how we look at
it. No agenda, art generator.com. You can follow
along live, if you're listening to the show, or even after the
fact you can go there and just refresh and see what's going on.
Or again, in one of those modern podcast apps. We have chapters
with images that Dred Scott does for us all the time and I love
it a lot. It's all part of our value for value model, which we
have been. I'm sorry.
John C Dvorak: Yeah. Watch. Look at it. I was looking at one of
the tabs in my browser and I was just irked.
Adam Curry: Do share.
John C Dvorak: No. Okay.
Adam Curry: All right. Well, well, it wasn't Show Related at
least.
John C Dvorak: No. Okay, I'm saying no. Okay. Figures.
Adam Curry: It's all part of our value for value model which we
pioneered been using another tab issue.
John C Dvorak: No, this time I lost a note. Ah, there it is.
Just microphone just picks up too many mic grumblings.
Adam Curry: Okay. And now it's the mic. microphone all right.
No, it is you shouldn't be looking at open tabs when you're
doing the show. Flower Mound from Texas gives us $1,000 Right
off the bat as our first executive producer episode 1534
and says Hey, John Adam, this is a little something something to
help keep the show going. I'd say it's more though
John C Dvorak: who was this person from Flower Mound Texas,
Adam Curry: sir otaku? Yeah, I'm sorry. My spreadsheet slid over.
Here we go sir otaku it has kept me sane for at least the last 10
years by the way, I lost track of how much I've donated. So
we'll always just have to be the Duke of Northeast Texas and the
Red River Valley. I'm sure we can run a report we should do
that. Hello back office as well
John C Dvorak: the problem is now well, we could get to a
point maybe the problem is that Pay Pal stops keeping the the
tabs after three years.
Adam Curry: Why don't we have we don't we don't keep that in some
system.
John C Dvorak: Now. We don't do that. I mean, actually, Eric
does have a database that might be able to pull it out of there.
Adam Curry: I would hope so. I would hope so possible. I would
hope so.
John C Dvorak: I would have to look up sir otaku? Yeah, that'd
Adam Curry: be nice. But otherwise you know you you can
still be the Duke of Northeast
John C Dvorak: Archduke is nice it could be art that's what
we're talking about.
Adam Curry: He says that we need to get the no agenda Kyuzo party
back on the air Q so and I and this is a ham radio reference. I
think var AC is where I'm going next to New Hot digital mode
everyone's talking about Var Var AC I'm gonna get my rig up and
running because that is almost like a social network on ham
radio. That's really it looks really cool.
John C Dvorak: A C stand for Adam curry.
Adam Curry: No it does not not at all. No bar AC I know it's
asynchronous something asynchronous chat I think anyway
says I'm just not good at promoting all the hams that we
have in our community. It's okay we can we can work on that we'll
post let's get to get a thread going on no agenda social he
further would like a JCD mac and cheese and a little girl yeah.
John C Dvorak: You slaves get get used to mac and cheese.

podcast, but once it clicked Well, I've been listening ever
since and haven't looked back. I knew this was an amazing podcast
while I'd find myself chuckling out loud when hearing you guys
deconstruct the media. I knew it was I was absolutely hooked to
the show, though. When I heard John C. Dvorak say the word
butthole when talking about Colin Powell after he died. Wow,
that's so lame. Talking about the dead that way. I don't think
it was right after he died by the way. But that says just
remember John. That's how you get them hooked. Call up people.
John C Dvorak: He continues to say I've never laughed so hard.
Oh, my goodness. So they had to be some other situation. And I
remember calling Colin Powell a butthole

Nicole doubt they were very kind. Cody is retiring soon.
He's a flight instructor at Corpus Christi at the Naval
airbase, he invited me to go down there and fly in the sim
which I did on on Monday. In the Navy simulator, John, this was
the most crazy thing I've ever done in one of the in like the
big ball, you know, the like three storey high ball that you
get in and then it's just huge. It goes up and down and back and
forth. No actually it doesn't. It's it's like a three and an
almost like a 270 degree screen. The screen is moving. Now you
got some feedback and stuff in in the cockpit. You know that
makes it feel realistic, but it was all the screen that's
moving. It's like 12 projectors. It was really, really cool. Of
course, me as a licensed pilot I was not able to land on the
aircraft carrier tried it four times and failed. So they want a

ice.
Adam Curry: Why not? Fly Boy you can do it.
John C Dvorak: So you give it to gas, and the plane immediately
skids and spins out of control into the terminal.
Adam Curry: So this was the T 45 jet that I was flying. Man,
that's harder than it looks. Really is. The cool one was
getting launched off the ship with a catapult. Oh, that'd be
cool. It's very realistic. Oddly, oddly realistic was what
it was fun to do. Good people

Unknown: feel like I'm taking crazy pills.
Adam Curry: Good old Keith Owens. A good one Olbermann.
John C Dvorak: Die. We don't you'd run negative things at the
end like to die one. I have some that are competitive. Okay. Now
I have one that just put in here as a joke. This is and because
it's like what? This is the Ed Asner ISO.
Unknown: This is Ed Asner,
Adam Curry: and you're listening to no lies radio a little long.
Yes. Too long.

John C Dvorak: Yeah, I can't really argue against it.
Adam Curry: Okay. All right. Well, then, let's not argue
against it. We'll use the crazy pills.
Had a, like a series of train crash clips. Seems like trains
are the most dangerous mode of transportation these days. If
you've paid attention
John C Dvorak: Have you ever been asked Adam clip?
Adam Curry: Oh, at the end of the show. Okay. All right.
John C Dvorak: I have a voice clip. This is DeSantis test. And
the question that I'm asking you is this DeSantis or artificial
intelligence, a vicious
Unknown: dictator launched an unjustified illegal and
unprovoked attack on an innocent people and a sovereign country.
He thought that it would be over in days, he thought the people
would back down and allow for his domination. But what he
underestimated was the Defiance the determination and the
courage courage of the Ukrainian people, not just in Ukraine.
Adam Curry: It doesn't even sound like DeSantis to be
honest. At the beginning, it sounded like DeSantis but then
it just didn't even sound like him. What is it?
John C Dvorak: It's some French politician.
Adam Curry: You tried to fake me? You tried to fake me as a
failure.
John C Dvorak: French but keep French Canadian. Wow.
Adam Curry: You had to go in for a moment there.
John C Dvorak: I that's what I heard. I heard him sounding good
at the beginning and then as it crapped out, but I'm beginning
to think the best AI voices are just people that sound exactly
like someone else, and there's plenty of them.
Adam Curry: I got a guy the other day who heard us talk
about something on the show. And then he played at high speed and
he said, Well, now I don't know what a deep fake is. I don't
know if it's at high speed and people getting so confused by
this. Deep fakes. I think you're not you can tell I think a human
being To listen to other human beings in real time can detect a
deep fake usually this radio station now Eygpt radio show far
yeah wow you think it's gonna give it to get better I'm sure
but you still need writing you know you can make someone's
sound the right way but you still need the output has to be
convinced double anyway I
John C Dvorak: agree with that
Adam Curry: I want to do these these trick quick train clips
because we've always heard trains good planes bad. Well
what you really don't want to do is riding a train anymore,
Unknown: Todd carriages and billowing smoke. This wreckage
testifies the violence of the collision between a passenger
train which was derailed and a freight train still on the
tracks. The crash triggered a fire and many passengers were
trapped inside carriages.
Adam Curry: I think like 30 people died on that we have
another one in the US
Unknown: another freight train derailed today this time near
Bradenton, Florida two tanker cars loaded with propane fuel
went off the tracks no one was hurt. And so far no leaks have
been detected. The cause of this wreck is now under
investigation.
We had so bad when you the whistleblower program the
aftermath of the toxic train derailment in Ohio
Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg is now calling for all
major rail companies to join a voluntary whistleblower program.
It allows employees to confidentially confidentially
report dangerous situations but Buttigieg says no major freight
company currently participates in the program including Norfolk
Southern, which is responsible for the Ohio derailment. Norfolk
Southern says it already operates a similar program on
its own.
John C Dvorak: So trains just dangerous 1000 derailments a
year minimum us alone, but
Adam Curry: you know, not like in in, in Greece word 30 people
perish.
John C Dvorak: It's happened. Of course, it's
Adam Curry: happened. It's happened.
John C Dvorak: So I sent out the word to the producers to find me
a clip of you saying that AOC would become president? Oh, yes.
And you found it. I got like it. This is not the clip I'm looking
for. But it's okay. Okay. I still haven't gotten a real good
one.
Adam Curry: If I remember, I The dispute was I say she would be a
great president. And versus she will become president. I'm not
sure it was.
John C Dvorak: My rent remembers it. She'd be a great president.
You wouldn't say that in a million years.
Unknown: ratably effective.
Adam Curry: I think the guy's making a very good point. And I
and I agree that I've always said, watch out for AOC. Ma'am.
You don't have to be smart. And I think lots of people would
agree with me that to be to be president, even. As the elected
official, she certainly knows very well, that proves nothing.
John C Dvorak: It proves that you thought she'd be president
be okay. If she was. I know this is not I said I did. This is not
the clip I'm looking for. No clip I'm looking for I know that
I said something like, no free. You're kidding me. But when you
like that,
Adam Curry: all right. That's all right. Well, for the next
show, then I'll give you this one. Okay. For the next show,
please bring the copy of international law where you
can't steal Russian money. I'd like to know the law.
International law that states that. Okay, yeah, I'm sure
there's one out there. Maybe who maintains international law?
