Or do we have a little more to go? 28 00:01:20,190 --> 00:01:21,480 John C Dvorak: Oh, are you a long way to go? 29 00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:27,030 Adam Curry: I love this, this latest fractus that took place 30 00:01:28,110 --> 00:01:32,730 over the weekend, where you could no longer post a link to 31 00:01:32,730 --> 00:01:36,660 your substack on Twitter. You follow this? 32 00:01:37,350 --> 00:01:39,570 John C Dvorak: Yeah, I've been meaning to check that. 33 00:01:40,890 --> 00:01:43,680 Adam Curry: And I'm just so surprised.

Do you not remember that this was all free? And this 39 00:01:59,130 --> 00:02:02,220 was just a free for all? And that you know, you're just a 40 00:02:02,220 --> 00:02:07,140 piece of meat in this big tech grinder? And people were all 41 00:02:07,140 --> 00:02:13,380 surprised like, right, why don't you allow that? Come on? 42 00:02:14,130 --> 00:02:16,620 John C Dvorak: Well, I'm not even sure it's true. I do know 43 00:02:16,620 --> 00:02:20,370 he's got some new scheme called Create. Oh, what's? 44 00:02:20,730 --> 00:02:22,650 Adam Curry: What's this? No, I don't know about creates. Oh, 45 00:02:22,650 --> 00:02:24,660 yeah. Oh, do tell what's the creative. 46 00:02:24,690 --> 00:02:27,840 John C Dvorak: I think if you go to twitter.com/create, your if 47 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:30,180 you're logged in, you know, they'll send you to the page. 48 00:02:30,780 --> 00:02:33,270 They want you to do all kinds of different stuff, which they'll 49 00:02:33,270 --> 00:02:36,480 pay you for including what it appears to me to be a subset 50 00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:36,990 clone. 51 00:02:37,110 --> 00:02:40,980 Adam Curry: Oh, so Alright, so crazy, crazy thought, you know, 52 00:02:40,980 --> 00:02:43,320 there's a competitor and he wants to kick them off. Well, 53 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:46,410 that makes kind of sense, doesn't it? Oh, it makes total 54 00:02:46,410 --> 00:02:51,990 sense. Yeah. Oh, people are outraged. Although he's so smart 55 00:02:51,990 --> 00:02:56,190 people like Brett Weinstein is nine. Yeah, they get into this. 56 00:02:56,850 --> 00:03:00,270 Like, whoa, Bill, you know, it's like, here's the right Elon is 57 00:03:00,270 --> 00:03:06,210 doing his smart don't don't even participate in this nonsense. 58 00:03:06,210 --> 00:03:09,630 And then Elon replies one substack links were never 59 00:03:09,630 --> 00:03:15,690 blocked. Oh, no, this was no this was Matt Taibbi, he also 60 00:03:15,690 --> 00:03:20,400 was in this Matt Taibbi meta EBS, like, oh, he was all mad 61 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:23,190 and Brett Weinstein jumped into it. And then Elon says no, no, 62 00:03:23,190 --> 00:03:27,060 no, no match statement is false. substack was a period here's 63 00:03:27,060 --> 00:03:30,630 where I like substack was trying to download a massive portion of 64 00:03:30,630 --> 00:03:34,440 the Twitter database to bootstrap their Twitter clone. 65 00:03:35,490 --> 00:03:39,270 So their IP addresses obviously untrusted. Now this sounds troll 66 00:03:39,270 --> 00:03:39,510 at 67 00:03:39,510 --> 00:03:41,970 John C Dvorak: me. So there's a Twitter clone from subs that 68 00:03:41,970 --> 00:03:43,980 wonder they're doing a substack clone. 69 00:03:44,310 --> 00:03:47,940 Adam Curry: Yeah, well, it's called notes, I guess which I 70 00:03:47,940 --> 00:03:50,700 don't have substack I don't have the app. I don't participate in 71 00:03:50,700 --> 00:03:53,010 any of that. So I guess when you think 72 00:03:53,010 --> 00:03:55,560 John C Dvorak: like a noob and I've never heard of this machine 73 00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:55,800 hadn't 74 00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:57,840 Adam Curry: heard of it either. And she she helps some people 75 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:01,110 out with some sub stacks, but apparently notes. It sounds 76 00:04:01,110 --> 00:04:03,900 right. You know, a tweet a note that would make sense. Sounds a 77 00:04:03,900 --> 00:04:06,570 bit like noster but I'll just leave that for what it is. And 78 00:04:06,570 --> 00:04:10,260 then and then the big surprise Elon tweets. By the way, 79 00:04:10,350 --> 00:04:13,140 John C Dvorak: what is this nostril you keep talking about 80 00:04:13,170 --> 00:04:18,540 Adam Curry: I told you about nostril? I told you nostril is a 81 00:04:18,570 --> 00:04:19,260 is like a 82 00:04:21,570 --> 00:04:23,550 Unknown: it's like gab No. 83 00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:28,200 Adam Curry: It's it's a set of technologies bundled together. 84 00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:31,770 It's no STR nostril but I like nostril better. So I'm we're 85 00:04:31,770 --> 00:04:35,850 sticking with that. And it means notes and other things over 86 00:04:35,850 --> 00:04:41,610 relays. So you know it. It's kind of like a hub and spoke 87 00:04:41,610 --> 00:04:45,960 model but you own your identity hub and spoke model for what for 88 00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:49,380 anything. So the first thing that has been made is a is like 89 00:04:49,380 --> 00:04:53,820 a social media network or like a Twitter thing. It's like Twitter 90 00:04:53,820 --> 00:04:57,330 on meth. Because you know, it's a burps and it farts and it's 91 00:04:57,330 --> 00:05:00,810 all over the place but people and it has payment Lightning 92 00:05:00,810 --> 00:05:04,200 Bitcoin network payment built in so people instead of liking 93 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:07,710 people or zapping each other with little bits of money so 94 00:05:07,710 --> 00:05:10,170 there's a lot of excitement around that from the of course 95 00:05:10,170 --> 00:05:13,800 from the Bitcoin crowd and Jack Dorsey is the guy who's put a 96 00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:17,610 lot of money into debt, no one can own it. So there's no one 97 00:05:17,610 --> 00:05:22,890 can become a huge winner of this. Just you know, just people 98 00:05:23,010 --> 00:05:25,860 doing it to you know, they call it censorship resistant and so 99 00:05:25,860 --> 00:05:29,610 you you own your identity with a with a public and private key 100 00:05:29,610 --> 00:05:33,240 and then you can put it into any app and all your stuff shows up 101 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:36,870 and it's fun. You know, I think there's something to it as you 102 00:05:36,870 --> 00:05:39,450 know, I pick the hit so I'm keeping my eye on it, but it's 103 00:05:39,450 --> 00:05:42,390 as I think I told you before, do not try it yourself yet. You're 104 00:05:42,390 --> 00:05:46,290 not ready for this. You will hate it. But you can do all 105 00:05:46,290 --> 00:05:49,170 kinds of stuff with it. You could create a substack clone in 106 00:05:49,170 --> 00:05:51,330 fact, there is one habla dot news. 107 00:05:51,690 --> 00:05:54,270 John C Dvorak: And all Yo, you hate Mastodon now. 108 00:05:54,450 --> 00:06:00,210 Adam Curry: No, no, not at all. Not at all. competitor. A 109 00:06:00,210 --> 00:06:02,910 totally competitor but Mastodon works you know 110 00:06:03,150 --> 00:06:04,260 John C Dvorak: once you stand 111 00:06:04,290 --> 00:06:06,690 Unknown: for something once you blow me 112 00:06:08,100 --> 00:06:09,480 Adam Curry: don't share what Hey, I 113 00:06:09,900 --> 00:06:13,950 John C Dvorak: can't be all over the map here with nostril I can 114 00:06:17,010 --> 00:06:18,960 Adam Curry: I've never I don't think I even had a parlor 115 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:23,760 account Partha. All right now just insulting me stop this. 116 00:06:24,990 --> 00:06:27,960 It's something interesting. There is something interesting 117 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:31,560 to it. And we'll see. You know, there's been lots of things it's 118 00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:34,800 like, right now. It's kind of like Tor. You know, and you 119 00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:40,080 don't use Tor? I don't use Tor. use Tor all the time. No, you do 120 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:44,730 not. You do you use a Tor Browser? No, I 121 00:06:44,730 --> 00:06:46,620 John C Dvorak: use it didn't say Tor browser. 122 00:06:46,650 --> 00:06:48,330 Adam Curry: I'm sorry. How do you use Tor? 123 00:06:48,900 --> 00:06:50,760 John C Dvorak: I used to or when I download things. 124 00:06:51,030 --> 00:06:51,990 Adam Curry: That's torrent. 125 00:06:54,840 --> 00:06:56,040 John C Dvorak: That was bit Tor. 126 00:06:56,460 --> 00:06:58,230 Adam Curry: Yeah, that's something different. It's 127 00:06:58,950 --> 00:07:02,370 different. Tor is God. Man. 128 00:07:02,580 --> 00:07:04,860 John C Dvorak: We got to onion, Utah. The onion. It 129 00:07:04,860 --> 00:07:06,900 Adam Curry: is an onion technology. Yes. Correct. 130 00:07:06,929 --> 00:07:09,299 John C Dvorak: Yes. No. Good. You have a full crowd. 131 00:07:12,630 --> 00:07:18,000 Adam Curry: Hey, happy Easter, John. One more thing about about 132 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:22,140 Twitter because this just destruct me this morning. With 133 00:07:22,140 --> 00:07:25,410 all the changes Elon is making. I have like no engagement on 134 00:07:25,410 --> 00:07:28,770 Twitter. I don't really care. It doesn't matter. I post something 135 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:33,630 no one, no one sees it, I guess, Shadow banned or whatever. You 136 00:07:33,630 --> 00:07:36,090 know, people are still getting kicked off for all kinds of odd 137 00:07:36,090 --> 00:07:39,540 reasons. Oh, by the way, now, there's a former president back 138 00:07:39,540 --> 00:07:43,680 affiliate badge you can get on Twitter. And of course, Obama 139 00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:47,640 has won and Clinton has won. But Trump doesn't have won. He 140 00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:51,630 didn't get the affiliate badge showing your former president, 141 00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:58,320 which I think is just funny. But how about this? What if Elon is 142 00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:02,610 a Fed now partner? And he's gonna roll out with perhaps the 143 00:08:02,610 --> 00:08:08,160 most already adopted fully integrated payment wallet system 144 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:12,390 of have them all?

Because he doesn't want to deal with a 148 00:08:20,430 --> 00:08:23,700 cbdc is one away for all that nonsense. He needs to get going 149 00:08:23,700 --> 00:08:27,060 now he's in trouble. You can't tell me this is going great for 150 00:08:27,060 --> 00:08:33,840 him. I don't know you don't know. I don't know. Anyway, that 151 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:36,540 was that's all I had to say about that. Just to get us into 152 00:08:36,540 --> 00:08:38,520 it. So yes, happy Easter, John. Happy Easter. 153 00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:40,740 John C Dvorak: Happy Easter to you and your family. 154 00:08:40,770 --> 00:08:43,710 Adam Curry: Thank you. Thank you very much.

The gray zone website did 217 00:12:11,070 --> 00:12:17,940 a whole series of analyses of the number of dead based on what 218 00:12:17,940 --> 00:12:21,480 we've said over the years, in terms of the dominator dying a 219 00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:24,450 week and and they put it all together. And it turns out that 220 00:12:24,450 --> 00:12:30,210 the number in those documents is accurate. Oh, no, by our own, by 221 00:12:30,210 --> 00:12:35,490 our own commentary over the last year. Yes.

Well, we 228 00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:06,360 have to assume that's bull crap, too. So that document that the 229 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:10,800 so called doctored part, might there might be doctored, but 230 00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:14,190 it's not. That's not where it's doctored it would be elsewhere. 231 00:13:14,220 --> 00:13:14,670 This is 232 00:13:14,700 --> 00:13:18,240 Adam Curry: I think, this is the clip of of Miley lying, you say 233 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:19,650 exaggerate.

I think this is 239 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:38,250 pixie lady who used to be at Fox and went to CBS. She laughs a 240 00:13:38,250 --> 00:13:41,490 lot. She's laughing a lot about this. She's chuckling throughout 241 00:13:41,490 --> 00:13:44,430 everything. And when she did what, what stood out for you 242 00:13:44,430 --> 00:13:47,910 about this? He's like, Well, the fact that published, there's 243 00:13:47,910 --> 00:13:50,370 more of that this I didn't notice until I was listening to 244 00:13:50,370 --> 00:13:51,540 the clips again this morning. 245 00:13:52,110 --> 00:13:57,000 Unknown: The fact that they're public. There there's there's a 246 00:13:57,000 --> 00:14:00,420 lot of classified information over here and classified 247 00:14:00,420 --> 00:14:04,800 information leaks all the time. Sometimes it's deliberate, 248 00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:10,860 sometimes not. But rarely do the underlying classified documents 249 00:14:11,010 --> 00:14:16,170 leak. And that's what happened in this case. These these 250 00:14:16,170 --> 00:14:17,130 documents what 251 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:20,910 John C Dvorak: polis said, Okay, what did he say? Alright, listen 252 00:14:20,910 --> 00:14:21,270 again, 253 00:14:21,570 --> 00:14:26,160 Unknown: but rarely do the underlying classified documents 254 00:14:26,310 --> 00:14:26,820 leak. 255 00:14:27,900 --> 00:14:30,390 Adam Curry: So it says classified information is leaked 256 00:14:30,390 --> 00:14:34,770 all the time on purpose. Yeah, we know that. But rarely is it 257 00:14:34,770 --> 00:14:38,340 the actual documents that underlie the information? That's 258 00:14:38,340 --> 00:14:38,490 what 259 00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:40,830 John C Dvorak: my understanding is that this actually stems from 260 00:14:40,830 --> 00:14:42,630 a slideshow and a handout. 261 00:14:43,260 --> 00:14:45,720 Adam Curry: Yeah, yeah, a PowerPoint, in fact, 262 00:14:46,590 --> 00:14:49,680 John C Dvorak: a PowerPoint a handout and it was somebody you 263 00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:53,130 know, you'd give up never had I was gonna leak. So this is not 264 00:14:53,130 --> 00:14:56,100 the underlying classified documentation. This is from a 265 00:14:56,100 --> 00:14:59,040 presentation so he's full of crap right there. 266 00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:01,320 Adam Curry: I think PowerPoint into the handout is a great 267 00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:03,930 title for a country song. I don't know why, but it just 268 00:15:03,930 --> 00:15:04,410 feels good 269 00:15:04,770 --> 00:15:09,390 John C Dvorak: morning handout is what I got today, instead of 270 00:15:09,390 --> 00:15:13,530 kisses on my lips as all I got, in fact, to say 271 00:15:13,530 --> 00:15:14,190 Adam Curry: to say, 272 00:15:15,839 --> 00:15:19,979 Unknown: but rarely do the underlying classified document 273 00:15:19,979 --> 00:15:23,309 documents leak. And that's what happened in this case. 274 00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:26,640 John C Dvorak: Oh, wait a minute, it was start stop. If 275 00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:33,750 you parse it. He, he, you can interpret what he said as the 276 00:15:33,750 --> 00:15:36,480 underlying documents did not leak. 277 00:15:37,650 --> 00:15:39,690 Adam Curry: Oh, that's another way of interpreting it. Let's 278 00:15:39,690 --> 00:15:41,910 listen. Let's let's go back to the videotape, 279 00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:46,590 Unknown: but rarely do the underlying classified documents 280 00:15:46,740 --> 00:15:47,250 leak. 281 00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:50,730 Adam Curry: Yeah. Which is not what this was because this was a 282 00:15:51,390 --> 00:15:53,490 John C Dvorak: PowerPoint presentation, 283 00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:54,810 Adam Curry: and handout. 284 00:15:55,140 --> 00:15:56,970 Unknown: And that's what happened in this case. 285 00:15:58,170 --> 00:16:01,200 Adam Curry: Oh, they rarely they didn't. Oh, well. It all depends 286 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:03,870 on how you parse it. I like what you're saying. I don't think 287 00:16:03,870 --> 00:16:06,990 most people would parse it that way. But it's possible. It's 288 00:16:06,990 --> 00:16:10,020 maybe what he meant. Could be he's a spook after all 289 00:16:11,250 --> 00:16:14,520 Unknown: these these documents are carrying around the building 290 00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:17,640 in a pouch pouch, hand to hand 291 00:16:17,670 --> 00:16:18,450 Adam Curry: hand to hand 292 00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:20,910 John C Dvorak: about the underlying documents.

But the fact that they were published online so 546 00:29:28,650 --> 00:29:32,580 quickly after they were produced on March 1 makes this already 547 00:29:32,580 --> 00:29:33,810 very big on second. 548 00:29:34,620 --> 00:29:36,990 Adam Curry: It is now April 9. 549 00:29:38,130 --> 00:29:40,500 John C Dvorak: That's a month almost a month and a half. 550 00:29:40,530 --> 00:29:42,420 Adam Curry: This has been floating out there since March 551 00:29:42,420 --> 00:29:45,630 1, and this is the first we're hearing of it.

We call them overhead 579 00:31:34,020 --> 00:31:35,130 sheets. Yeah, their 580 00:31:35,130 --> 00:31:38,520 John C Dvorak: overhead but they generically referred to as foils 581 00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:40,200 at least in the industry. 582 00:31:40,230 --> 00:31:42,180 Adam Curry: Oh, yeah. Well, not in the industry. I'm still 583 00:31:42,180 --> 00:31:47,100 thinking that spotlight, apples, a PowerPoint clone. I know it's 584 00:31:47,100 --> 00:31:48,330 all it's all fishing turn 585 00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:51,090 Unknown: from the original documents. But the fact that 586 00:31:51,090 --> 00:31:54,540 they were published online so quickly after they were produced 587 00:31:54,540 --> 00:31:58,680 on March 1 makes this already very big leak and even more 588 00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:02,790 significant security breach and risk the Pentagon tells us they 589 00:32:02,790 --> 00:32:04,290 are reviewing this matter. 590 00:32:05,070 --> 00:32:10,890 Adam Curry: Yeah, so yeah. The only thing that changed the 591 00:32:10,890 --> 00:32:14,550 reason they say that well you know there's the been doctored 592 00:32:14,550 --> 00:32:18,330 is because of the lies the lies of how many casualties they were 593 00:32:18,420 --> 00:32:21,000 that that's why that happened. Yeah, 594 00:32:21,270 --> 00:32:24,960 John C Dvorak: yeah. Yeah, this is so bogus, but they do Oh, no, 595 00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:27,870 they given that blowing this up like at the end TD version of 596 00:32:27,870 --> 00:32:33,870 this. Oh, lovely. We love this is in D. D. Second, leak 597 00:32:33,870 --> 00:32:35,790 Pentagon docs. All right. 598 00:32:35,820 --> 00:32:38,550 Unknown: Several documents of what appears to be secret 599 00:32:38,550 --> 00:32:42,480 information about the war in Ukraine have been leaked online. 600 00:32:42,720 --> 00:32:46,350 And if the documents proved to be true, it could mean US troops 601 00:32:46,350 --> 00:32:50,820 are on the ground in Ukraine. And today's Jason Perry takes a 602 00:32:50,820 --> 00:32:52,260 look at those documents. 603 00:32:52,920 --> 00:32:56,130 The Pentagon is now investigating what appears to be 604 00:32:56,130 --> 00:32:59,490 secret documents about the war in Ukraine that were leaked 605 00:32:59,490 --> 00:33:03,840 online. They appear to be US and NATO military documents with 606 00:33:03,840 --> 00:33:07,980 classification markings of secret and top secret. As of now 607 00:33:07,980 --> 00:33:11,400 no official statements have been made about who was responsible 608 00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:15,930 for the alleged leak. In an email to NCD. The Pentagon gave 609 00:33:15,930 --> 00:33:19,620 us this statement. We are aware of the reports of social media 610 00:33:19,620 --> 00:33:23,010 posts and the department is reviewing the matter. Okay, so 611 00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:25,680 Adam Curry: it's the Pentagon who are saying social media if 612 00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:29,430 that is indeed their quote to them. It's the Pentagon who are 613 00:33:29,430 --> 00:33:33,150 saying we are made aware of social media posts Exactly. 614 00:33:33,180 --> 00:33:33,690 Okay. 615 00:33:33,930 --> 00:33:37,560 Unknown: In an email to NCD. The Pentagon gave us this statement. 616 00:33:37,860 --> 00:33:41,190 We are aware of the reports of social media posts and the 617 00:33:41,190 --> 00:33:44,640 department is reviewing the matter. US officials say the 618 00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:48,480 documents look like real slides from the Pentagon, but also say 619 00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:52,650 some of the information has been altered. For example, a document 620 00:33:52,650 --> 00:33:55,590 from March 2023 classified as secret 621 00:33:55,620 --> 00:33:58,800 Adam Curry: Hold on a second. How can these documents be out 622 00:33:58,800 --> 00:34:05,340 in March 1 When they're when they're dated March 23. Little 623 00:34:05,340 --> 00:34:07,110 discrepancy in the timeline? Oh, 624 00:34:07,110 --> 00:34:08,640 John C Dvorak: that's a good one. Good cat. 625 00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:10,320 Adam Curry: How does that work? How does that 626 00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:14,010 Unknown: work? In an email to NCD? The Pentagon gave us this 627 00:34:14,010 --> 00:34:17,910 statement. We are aware of the reports of social media posts 628 00:34:17,940 --> 00:34:21,660 and the department is reviewing the matter. US officials say the 629 00:34:21,660 --> 00:34:25,500 documents look like real slides from the Pentagon, but also say 630 00:34:25,500 --> 00:34:29,670 some of the information has been altered. For example, a document 631 00:34:29,670 --> 00:34:31,380 from March 2023 I'm 632 00:34:31,380 --> 00:34:34,800 Adam Curry: sorry, march 2023. Okay, oh, my mistake classified 633 00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:35,550 as secret 634 00:34:35,550 --> 00:34:39,480 Unknown: says between 60,000 to 70,000 Ukrainian troops have 635 00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:42,900 been killed in action, which is higher than what the Pentagon 636 00:34:42,900 --> 00:34:44,100 says it estimates. 637 00:34:44,370 --> 00:34:47,460 Adam Curry: But wait a minute. Oh, yeah. Okay. It was the 638 00:34:47,460 --> 00:34:48,510 Russians who were less I got. 639 00:34:48,750 --> 00:34:51,660 Unknown: The documents also estimate Russia's casualties to 640 00:34:51,660 --> 00:34:57,000 be around 16,000 to 17,000. But US officials say they estimate 641 00:34:57,000 --> 00:35:00,510 around 200,000 Russian troops have been killed in Action. 642 00:35:00,690 --> 00:35:04,560 Another document also classified as secret is dated February 643 00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:08,670 2023. It shows the amount of Western weapon systems that 644 00:35:08,670 --> 00:35:12,270 Ukraine currently has on hand and the estimated delivery of 645 00:35:12,270 --> 00:35:15,930 additional systems. And it also lists the training Ukrainian 646 00:35:15,930 --> 00:35:19,290 forces have or are expected to have on those systems. 647 00:35:19,890 --> 00:35:25,680 Adam Curry: So Miley did lie in to Congress. So they will 648 00:35:25,710 --> 00:35:28,650 someone's going to be I'm sure gates, someone will call him 649 00:35:28,650 --> 00:35:33,210 back and say, Hey, you said this. This is this is what it 650 00:35:33,210 --> 00:35:36,060 says what's going on? He's gonna say, oh, no, that was doctored. 651 00:35:36,300 --> 00:35:40,740 Someone took it from the pouch. But it's, I mean, this has to 652 00:35:40,740 --> 00:35:45,660 also somehow be part of the ending of the war. I feel it 653 00:35:45,660 --> 00:35:46,200 somehow. 654 00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:53,250 John C Dvorak: Well, no, something's up. The other thing 655 00:35:53,250 --> 00:35:57,810 that's going on simultaneously, is this Taiwan situation, we'll 656 00:35:57,810 --> 00:36:00,870 get to now we'll get to that for sure. I just want to mention it 657 00:36:01,110 --> 00:36:05,070 in advance, which is that we can't do both? No, of course 658 00:36:05,070 --> 00:36:07,320 not. So it looks like 659 00:36:08,009 --> 00:36:11,459 Adam Curry: this may be the pivot point. It might be part 660 00:36:11,459 --> 00:36:13,919 two of this. The prior to the pivot PowerPoint, 661 00:36:14,100 --> 00:36:16,860 Unknown: the director of grand strategy at Quincy Institute, 662 00:36:16,860 --> 00:36:19,410 George BB had this to say on the hill. 663 00:36:19,500 --> 00:36:23,850 One potential hypothesis here is that this was designed to get 664 00:36:23,850 --> 00:36:28,170 the Russians to let their guard down to, to think that the 665 00:36:28,170 --> 00:36:31,560 Ukrainians are not going to be coming at them with big numbers 666 00:36:31,560 --> 00:36:35,970 and overwhelming force Psych. And that's possible. But I think 667 00:36:35,970 --> 00:36:38,730 if you were really trying to throw the Russians off, you 668 00:36:38,730 --> 00:36:42,480 would want to include some things that would include where 669 00:36:42,480 --> 00:36:46,230 and when the Ukrainians might be attacking. That would be the 670 00:36:46,230 --> 00:36:48,900 ultimate aim of this kind of deception. 671 00:36:48,930 --> 00:36:52,020 Something else that was shown in the documents is the presence of 672 00:36:52,020 --> 00:36:56,040 nearly 100 Special Operations troops in Ukraine from NATO 673 00:36:56,040 --> 00:36:59,640 countries, including from the United States, France and the 674 00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:03,210 UK. According to The New York Post, Russia's Kremlin 675 00:37:03,210 --> 00:37:07,620 spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said this in a statement to CNN, we 676 00:37:07,620 --> 00:37:10,710 don't have the slightest doubt about the direct and indirect 677 00:37:10,710 --> 00:37:14,370 involvement of the United States and NATO in the conflict between 678 00:37:14,370 --> 00:37:17,760 Russia and Ukraine. Well, of course, it makes the whole story 679 00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:21,240 more complicated, but it can't influence the final outcome of 680 00:37:21,240 --> 00:37:22,380 the special operation. 681 00:37:23,250 --> 00:37:26,100 Adam Curry: Was it some secret that was a secret that we were 682 00:37:26,100 --> 00:37:29,130 involved somehow in helping Ukraine was this like some of 683 00:37:29,130 --> 00:37:29,190 the 684 00:37:29,520 --> 00:37:31,650 John C Dvorak: this was the interesting part of this report 685 00:37:31,650 --> 00:37:34,860 is that everybody else kind of downplayed the fact that in 686 00:37:34,860 --> 00:37:39,870 their, in the leaked documents, it talked about the fact that 687 00:37:39,870 --> 00:37:43,260 we're loaded, loaded up with a bunch of special forces, guys 688 00:37:43,260 --> 00:37:46,020 and trainers and ever they're all over there. And we've talked 689 00:37:46,020 --> 00:37:49,470 about this on our show, because we had a specific person that 690 00:37:49,470 --> 00:37:53,820 was involved in Yeah, in being being there in Ukraine in the US 691 00:37:53,820 --> 00:37:58,350 Army. And so it's a big, but I think there's still think it's a 692 00:37:58,350 --> 00:38:01,680 secret. So none of the other networks mentioned this. I feel 693 00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:01,830 like 694 00:38:02,009 --> 00:38:04,079 Adam Curry: wait a minute. Social media knows what we're up 695 00:38:04,079 --> 00:38:10,199 to. can't have this. These guys are dopes. I 696 00:38:11,009 --> 00:38:12,929 John C Dvorak: also think more could do a better 697 00:38:12,930 --> 00:38:17,250 Adam Curry: job. Yeah. dopes the dopes? Well, I agree. I think 698 00:38:17,250 --> 00:38:20,880 this is a pivot to China, maybe China will be blamed. It would 699 00:38:20,880 --> 00:38:24,090 be nice, you know, because that kind of falls in line with blame 700 00:38:24,090 --> 00:38:27,000 Trump. Now he's blamed for Afghanistan. 701 00:38:29,490 --> 00:38:30,510 Unknown: Classic, yeah, 702 00:38:30,540 --> 00:38:32,970 Adam Curry: I think that they would, it would fit nicer if 703 00:38:32,970 --> 00:38:36,510 like, well, you know, the Chinese did this. And this is 704 00:38:36,510 --> 00:38:39,420 where you know, what they should have said and it could still 705 00:38:39,420 --> 00:38:43,380 happen. It turns out it leaked on Tik Tok because they haven't 706 00:38:43,380 --> 00:38:46,950 specified which social media Oh, that would be good. How about 707 00:38:46,950 --> 00:38:48,720 that one? That would be the way to go 708 00:38:48,720 --> 00:38:51,450 John C Dvorak: was leaked on Tik Tok by a dancing girl. 709 00:38:54,660 --> 00:38:57,240 Adam Curry: Your imagination is very creative today. 710 00:38:57,750 --> 00:38:59,850 John C Dvorak: You know, if you get on tick tock and you get on 711 00:38:59,850 --> 00:39:01,080 that wrong thread. 712 00:39:02,370 --> 00:39:04,410 Adam Curry: The wrong side? The one you don't want that one you 713 00:39:04,410 --> 00:39:05,310 don't love? Yes. 714 00:39:05,339 --> 00:39:08,279 John C Dvorak: All it is are these dipshit teenage girls 715 00:39:08,279 --> 00:39:11,519 doing this stupid dances where they touch their face and they 716 00:39:11,519 --> 00:39:14,819 jump around and they shake their ass and they do a torque maybe 717 00:39:15,029 --> 00:39:17,399 and they didn't eat then they didn't they go and eat dinner 718 00:39:17,399 --> 00:39:21,629 hand comes forward and they turn off the camera. It's like door i 719 00:39:21,659 --> 00:39:23,999 There must be a million of these of these clips. 720 00:39:24,090 --> 00:39:25,470 Adam Curry: Stick with it because there'll be a new one 721 00:39:25,470 --> 00:39:27,810 soon. And that's like, that's how 722 00:39:27,810 --> 00:39:29,700 John C Dvorak: I always try to get back to the good clips, 723 00:39:29,700 --> 00:39:32,490 which is that people with purple hair bitching about their 724 00:39:32,490 --> 00:39:34,710 students being non binary. 725 00:39:34,890 --> 00:39:37,170 Adam Curry: Let's go back to CBS This Morning. And we'll get to 726 00:39:37,170 --> 00:39:39,480 the move into Taiwan and China. 727 00:39:39,509 --> 00:39:43,019 Unknown: The meeting between Taiwan's President and Speaker 728 00:39:43,019 --> 00:39:47,729 McCarthy was first and foremost, a clear signal to China. her 729 00:39:47,729 --> 00:39:51,089 arrival and welcome by the speaker in a bipartisan group of 730 00:39:51,089 --> 00:39:54,539 lawmakers was meant to telegraph that America would come to the 731 00:39:54,539 --> 00:39:57,959 rescue if China tried to seize Taiwan by force. 732 00:39:59,580 --> 00:40:05,610 The Press Since an unwavering support, reassures the people of 733 00:40:05,610 --> 00:40:12,900 Taiwan that we are not isolated, and we are not alone. 734 00:40:13,470 --> 00:40:16,680 This was a choreographed show of solidarity, 735 00:40:17,130 --> 00:40:19,860 the friendship between the people of Taiwan and America as 736 00:40:19,860 --> 00:40:23,130 a matter of profound importance to the free world. 737 00:40:23,370 --> 00:40:28,050 Predictably, China was furious Dre, the Foreign Ministry 738 00:40:28,050 --> 00:40:31,980 spokeswoman warned it would use strong and resolute measures to 739 00:40:31,980 --> 00:40:37,170 defend its sovereignty leading to enter. Last time a warning 740 00:40:37,170 --> 00:40:40,980 like that meant an intimidating display of force China's 741 00:40:40,980 --> 00:40:45,930 missiles, planes and warships all around Taiwan. That was in 742 00:40:45,930 --> 00:40:50,100 August 2022. After then Speaker Nancy Pelosi visited the island 743 00:40:50,190 --> 00:40:54,930 to meet with President Simon. Seven months on life in Taipei 744 00:40:54,930 --> 00:40:59,010 is ticking along as people are getting used to the tension and 745 00:40:59,010 --> 00:41:04,650 now bracing themselves for yet more Chinese reprisals. Michael 746 00:41:04,650 --> 00:41:08,490 Cole is an analyst with the Republican Institute in Taipei, 747 00:41:08,820 --> 00:41:13,290 there is absolutely no doubt that they will do something to 748 00:41:13,290 --> 00:41:17,340 try to punish Taiwan as a result of president's eyes, 749 00:41:17,490 --> 00:41:20,610 particularly over her meeting with with Speaker McCarthy Okay, 750 00:41:20,610 --> 00:41:21,060 I have a couple of 751 00:41:21,060 --> 00:41:28,560 Adam Curry: questions for you. So one we've known that China 752 00:41:28,560 --> 00:41:31,290 has kept saying hey, you know, if you'd like we have first we 753 00:41:31,290 --> 00:41:36,420 had Pelosi went there and your wire why are we trying to poke 754 00:41:36,420 --> 00:41:39,750 the bear? You know, it's like, if they say, Hey, don't don't 755 00:41:39,750 --> 00:41:42,690 meet with that person. We don't like it. And then what is the 756 00:41:42,690 --> 00:41:46,650 point of us going Oh, yeah. Neener Neener I'm gonna go. And 757 00:41:46,650 --> 00:41:50,580 then second. Yeah. What is the importance of Taiwan to the 758 00:41:50,580 --> 00:41:56,100 American people? What is well, because it seems like it's a 759 00:41:56,760 --> 00:41:58,440 major thing in the world. 760 00:41:59,129 --> 00:42:01,319 John C Dvorak: Well, besides the fact that they make all the good 761 00:42:01,319 --> 00:42:07,979 chips nowadays, okay. All right. And they pretty much control how 762 00:42:07,979 --> 00:42:12,509 high tech because of their their position that they're good for 763 00:42:12,509 --> 00:42:20,039 two things. One, they make these TM SC makes these a TSMC makes 764 00:42:20,039 --> 00:42:26,609 these terrific chips thanks to us. And so our technology which 765 00:42:26,609 --> 00:42:31,829 we can apparently afford to make here is all been exported to 766 00:42:31,829 --> 00:42:35,669 Taiwan and they and we have to actually pull up that company 767 00:42:35,669 --> 00:42:38,579 has to be destroyed if China goes in and that's a pain in the 768 00:42:38,579 --> 00:42:42,659 ass. Do you mean the thing is they are the number one people 769 00:42:42,659 --> 00:42:45,629 don't realize is I've asked around I've been to Taiwan quite 770 00:42:45,629 --> 00:42:48,689 a few times and I've always asked this what is Taiwan really 771 00:42:48,689 --> 00:42:51,869 the best at no one can really tell you Hamas? 772 00:42:51,900 --> 00:42:53,400 Adam Curry: Oh no, that's that's Israel. 773 00:42:53,700 --> 00:43:00,900 John C Dvorak: That's that's Lebanon. Injection Molding our 774 00:43:00,900 --> 00:43:05,640 plastics. A Motorola guy told me this he says, you know, you 775 00:43:05,640 --> 00:43:10,740 could you can dream up anything you think can't be injection 776 00:43:10,740 --> 00:43:15,000 molded or can be made into in a plastic form? That's right, the 777 00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:19,230 Taiwanese can do it. They are unbelievable at injection 778 00:43:19,230 --> 00:43:22,470 molding? And I don't know if that's important to the Chinese 779 00:43:22,470 --> 00:43:25,440 but I'm sure it is. The Chinese would love to have Taiwan 780 00:43:25,440 --> 00:43:29,250 they're there. They don't need laws on Kong it's got to control 781 00:43:29,250 --> 00:43:29,460 does 782 00:43:29,460 --> 00:43:32,190 Adam Curry: Taiwan not sell anything to China? If China says 783 00:43:32,190 --> 00:43:32,310 hey, 784 00:43:33,030 --> 00:43:36,060 John C Dvorak: Taiwan do nothing but business Exactly. So 785 00:43:36,120 --> 00:43:38,670 Adam Curry: there's not really a problem. We're just rocking the 786 00:43:38,670 --> 00:43:39,120 boat like 787 00:43:39,120 --> 00:43:41,850 John C Dvorak: a bunch of days. The whole thing is somewhat what 788 00:43:41,850 --> 00:43:42,390 phony 789 00:43:42,780 --> 00:43:45,900 Adam Curry: military industrial complex needs to pivot need to 790 00:43:45,900 --> 00:43:50,160 pivot from Ukraine loser situation and I got some stuff 791 00:43:50,160 --> 00:43:53,910 on that too over to Taiwan so we can all act high and mighty and 792 00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:57,480 we're important we need more stuff need more money. We had 793 00:43:57,480 --> 00:44:00,990 the chips Act which I know it's all bull crap. Let's just 794 00:44:00,990 --> 00:44:04,620 pretend that we're dumb. We had the chips Act which was what 795 00:44:04,620 --> 00:44:08,670 over a trillion dollars and that was supposed to stimulate chip 796 00:44:08,670 --> 00:44:12,600 production and foundries in the United States. Of course money 797 00:44:12,600 --> 00:44:16,710 just got already a flop by the stolen and and Europe also had a 798 00:44:16,710 --> 00:44:19,860 chips Act which all that money got stolen. No doubt me I don't 799 00:44:19,860 --> 00:44:23,220 see any apparently no, no just doesn't go into and then we have 800 00:44:23,250 --> 00:44:28,170 ASML which is a Dutch company and whoa, went over to talk with 801 00:44:28,170 --> 00:44:32,430 that. Hey, you know, you guys you gotta be there. Hey, we're 802 00:44:32,430 --> 00:44:34,950 big mad merch over here. You can't be sending stuff over 803 00:44:34,950 --> 00:44:37,680 there. If China takes over Taiwan. You can't give them any 804 00:44:37,710 --> 00:44:41,520 lithography so they can't make their chips that this this is 805 00:44:41,970 --> 00:44:46,140 makes no sense. Why are we rocking the boat? So what if 806 00:44:46,140 --> 00:44:50,010 China takes over Taiwan? I mean, I'm just say, I'm sure it'd be 807 00:44:50,010 --> 00:44:53,670 suck for those people, all kinds of horrible problems, but it 808 00:44:53,670 --> 00:44:56,430 does not like the chips would stop. Would they? 809 00:44:58,320 --> 00:45:02,310 John C Dvorak: Ah Was your thesis I don't know what to say. 810 00:45:03,570 --> 00:45:06,660 I don't know what what there's some something we don't 811 00:45:06,690 --> 00:45:10,470 obviously know. Yeah no but this is interesting to watch it 812 00:45:10,470 --> 00:45:14,340 unfold in my favorite clip of these Chinese clips is this one 813 00:45:14,340 --> 00:45:18,900 here I think because it's like China trying to copycat us in 814 00:45:18,900 --> 00:45:23,370 this play this clip is Chinese pulling sanctions card. 815 00:45:24,120 --> 00:45:26,520 Unknown: Meanwhile, the Chinese Communist Party has sanctioned 816 00:45:26,520 --> 00:45:30,360 two American organizations the Hudson Institute, and the Ronald 817 00:45:30,360 --> 00:45:34,080 Reagan Presidential Library hosted Taiwan's president during 818 00:45:34,080 --> 00:45:38,040 her recent travel to the US. The organization's are now banned 819 00:45:38,040 --> 00:45:42,780 from any cooperation exchange or transaction with China. This 820 00:45:42,780 --> 00:45:47,520 includes Chinese institutions and individuals. key leaders of 821 00:45:47,520 --> 00:45:51,360 the organizations are also personally affected. They'll be 822 00:45:51,360 --> 00:45:55,530 barred from visiting China have any assets in the country frozen 823 00:45:55,530 --> 00:45:59,520 and more. A Taiwanese government agency handling China relations 824 00:45:59,520 --> 00:46:02,820 condemns the sanctions calling it an intimidation attempt. 825 00:46:02,850 --> 00:46:05,760 Adam Curry: Oh, wow. Ooh, Ronald Reagan Library. 826 00:46:08,490 --> 00:46:10,830 John C Dvorak: Though it's almost as though they're mocking 827 00:46:10,860 --> 00:46:11,940 us Hi thing 828 00:46:11,970 --> 00:46:15,510 Adam Curry: by the way, your book is overdue China. You prior 829 00:46:15,510 --> 00:46:17,700 to bringing it back to the Ronald Reagan Library. We're 830 00:46:17,700 --> 00:46:23,040 really upset with you. This this, okay. This has got to be 831 00:46:23,040 --> 00:46:26,760 theater on a grand scale. There's just no no other way. 832 00:46:26,820 --> 00:46:31,950 And by the way, okay, so let's say China who needs us? Without 833 00:46:31,950 --> 00:46:36,090 us they have no business. Okay, you just sell to Europe. You 834 00:46:36,090 --> 00:46:39,630 need us where your market where your buyers where the jumbos. So 835 00:46:39,630 --> 00:46:43,560 what Okay, President Biden comes out and they program him to say 836 00:46:43,560 --> 00:46:50,220 the following. Everybody got bad news? There'll be no iPhone 837 00:46:50,250 --> 00:46:53,820 upgrade this year. Do you think y'all can hold on for another 838 00:46:53,820 --> 00:46:57,330 year until we get our foundry set up here? What could the 839 00:46:57,330 --> 00:47:00,390 worst possible outcome be? I know chips and all kinds of 840 00:47:00,390 --> 00:47:04,170 stuff. But chips don't just burn out. Now, what do you think we 841 00:47:04,170 --> 00:47:07,200 could we could hobble along for another year? Oh, I'm sorry. No, 842 00:47:07,200 --> 00:47:11,580 of course, AI is so we actually would solve the AI problem. No 843 00:47:11,580 --> 00:47:14,730 chips. We can't AI won't take over America because we have no 844 00:47:14,730 --> 00:47:19,080 chips. Just it's all kind of it's just the whole thing makes 845 00:47:19,080 --> 00:47:24,150 no sense. Other than Well, here it is. This is a shame to say a 846 00:47:24,150 --> 00:47:30,720 Texan who I have met in other contexts. It's just McCall. The 847 00:47:30,720 --> 00:47:36,330 big, the big military warmongering Wrangler. He's not 848 00:47:36,360 --> 00:47:39,960 always a douchebag. He's a war mongering douchebag. And all he 849 00:47:39,960 --> 00:47:42,360 could talk about is Ukraine, Ukraine, neighbor, Ukraine, 850 00:47:42,360 --> 00:47:45,000 Ukraine, Ukraine, Ukraine, Ukraine, and now all of a 851 00:47:45,000 --> 00:47:45,420 sudden, 852 00:47:45,689 --> 00:47:48,449 Unknown: so speaker McCarthy and yourself have said that multiple 853 00:47:48,449 --> 00:47:52,229 times now that we need to arm Taiwan now, before there's any 854 00:47:52,229 --> 00:47:54,959 sort of invasion. What about US troops? 855 00:47:55,020 --> 00:47:58,440 I think, you know, then you're talking about an authorized use 856 00:47:58,440 --> 00:48:01,620 of military force that would come out of my committee or a 857 00:48:01,620 --> 00:48:04,320 declaration of war, which we haven't utilized since World War 858 00:48:04,320 --> 00:48:04,650 Two, 859 00:48:04,709 --> 00:48:05,669 would you support that? 860 00:48:05,910 --> 00:48:11,400 I think if, if China Congress China invades Taiwan, I think 861 00:48:11,400 --> 00:48:15,030 that is certainly if the American people support this, 862 00:48:15,660 --> 00:48:16,800 the Congress will follow 863 00:48:17,040 --> 00:48:20,940 Adam Curry: notice Communist China, this V and Vietnam all 864 00:48:20,940 --> 00:48:22,770 over again, Communist China 865 00:48:22,800 --> 00:48:25,080 Unknown: has foreign affairs Chairman Michael McCaul 866 00:48:25,080 --> 00:48:28,590 signaling he is signaling to sending American troops to fight 867 00:48:28,590 --> 00:48:32,580 in Taiwan. It hasn't he has the exclusive report from Taipei. 868 00:48:32,580 --> 00:48:33,540 Good morning. Aisha said 869 00:48:33,540 --> 00:48:36,060 Adam Curry: the reserves and the guard for New Jersey. 870 00:48:36,510 --> 00:48:38,490 Unknown: Good morning to you, Dana. Good to see you. You know, 871 00:48:38,490 --> 00:48:42,960 this is very different than what we heard right before the war on 872 00:48:42,960 --> 00:48:46,530 Ukraine, when lawmakers were very adamant that there would 873 00:48:46,530 --> 00:48:50,970 absolutely be no US troops, no boots on the ground. Now we're 874 00:48:50,970 --> 00:48:54,060 learning that this is very much a possibility when it comes to 875 00:48:54,060 --> 00:48:58,410 Taiwan. In my exclusive interview with Chairman McCaul, 876 00:48:58,410 --> 00:49:02,310 he tells me that sending American men and women to war is 877 00:49:02,310 --> 00:49:06,570 the last resort conflict is the last resort deterrence is key 878 00:49:06,570 --> 00:49:12,720 here. But authorizing war powers is not out of the question. So 879 00:49:13,020 --> 00:49:17,190 you're saying that the option to authorize war powers is on the 880 00:49:17,190 --> 00:49:17,610 table? 881 00:49:17,910 --> 00:49:22,890 If Congress China invaded Taiwan, it would certainly be on 882 00:49:22,890 --> 00:49:26,010 the table and something that would be discussed by Congress 883 00:49:26,940 --> 00:49:31,020 and with the American people, are they prepared to do this? Is 884 00:49:31,020 --> 00:49:35,220 Taiwan worth it? I can argue for a lot of reasons why it is 885 00:49:35,279 --> 00:49:37,739 Adam Curry: which he of course doesn't do nor does Fox go into 886 00:49:37,739 --> 00:49:41,279 any detail of all these arguments of why it is so 887 00:49:41,279 --> 00:49:45,359 important. And what is this new, new, new term? I mean that we 888 00:49:45,359 --> 00:49:48,659 know authorization of use of military force, we know 889 00:49:48,719 --> 00:49:54,719 declaration of war, but now we have authorizing war powers. 890 00:49:55,649 --> 00:49:59,069 Which I found I find to be a little wishy washy. That doesn't 891 00:49:59,069 --> 00:50:00,689 sound like a real arm to me. 892 00:50:03,570 --> 00:50:06,690 John C Dvorak: I didn't notice this. Yeah, yeah. authorizing 893 00:50:06,690 --> 00:50:11,370 the train to vary their language maybe? Well, words do 894 00:50:11,370 --> 00:50:13,380 Adam Curry: matter. I mean, there's a difference between 895 00:50:13,410 --> 00:50:18,840 declaring war and authorization of use of military force. Which, 896 00:50:18,930 --> 00:50:23,250 which I think is such a bogus thing anyway. We haven't 897 00:50:23,250 --> 00:50:25,890 declared war on anybody since World War Two. 898 00:50:26,520 --> 00:50:29,010 John C Dvorak: You know, we've always had bases in Taiwan. I'm 899 00:50:29,010 --> 00:50:32,670 going to read this. This is from Voice of America, no fine. 2020. 900 00:50:32,670 --> 00:50:37,830 Right.

We have boots on the 902 00:50:41,580 --> 00:50:44,250 ground, that's boots on the ground. The United States has 903 00:50:44,250 --> 00:50:48,780 doubled as an unofficial military presence in Taiwan over 904 00:50:48,780 --> 00:50:51,930 the past year, in what specialists described as the 905 00:50:51,930 --> 00:50:55,740 latest signal to claim that Taiwan's future remains a 906 00:50:55,740 --> 00:51:04,320 priority. The increase from 20 to 3039 people are people and 907 00:51:04,320 --> 00:51:08,040 they're there. They're sitting somewhere in a house. I don't 908 00:51:08,040 --> 00:51:11,850 know where they are. But they I know when you go to Taiwan, the 909 00:51:12,390 --> 00:51:16,020 is people kind of assumed as a bunch of military guys here, 910 00:51:16,020 --> 00:51:19,500 because one whole part of the shopping district in Taipei is 911 00:51:19,500 --> 00:51:25,920 is kind of designed for them. Oh, okay, that makes sense. And 912 00:51:26,100 --> 00:51:28,650 you notice it when you're there shopping? Hey, let's listen to 913 00:51:28,650 --> 00:51:28,860 the 914 00:51:28,890 --> 00:51:31,290 Adam Curry: How about this.

After the meeting, they 957 00:53:57,330 --> 00:53:59,970 commissioned president to praise the Chinese leaders stance on 958 00:53:59,970 --> 00:54:03,180 nuclear weapons but warned Beijing against arming Russia 959 00:54:03,450 --> 00:54:07,680 claiming that that would violate international law. Yet President 960 00:54:07,680 --> 00:54:12,630 Macron OG issued a joint call for peace talks between Russia 961 00:54:12,630 --> 00:54:15,120 and Ukraine to take place as soon as possible. 962 00:54:15,270 --> 00:54:17,490 Adam Curry: This is no coincidence.

And she emphasized China's importance in promoting 969 00:54:35,310 --> 00:54:36,420 a just peace. 970 00:54:36,870 --> 00:54:40,710 Adam Curry: What I just had. I know you have clothes but a just 971 00:54:40,710 --> 00:54:45,240 peace. What is it just peace? Just 972 00:54:45,510 --> 00:54:46,950 John C Dvorak: a win win baby. All 973 00:54:46,950 --> 00:54:49,230 Unknown: right. And she emphasized China's importance in 974 00:54:49,230 --> 00:54:51,390 promoting adjust peace. This 975 00:54:51,390 --> 00:54:55,560 visit is taking place in a challenging and increasing 976 00:54:55,560 --> 00:55:00,270 volatile context. In particular, because of Russia. war of 977 00:55:00,270 --> 00:55:01,920 aggression against Ukraine. 978 00:55:01,950 --> 00:55:03,990 John C Dvorak: This is another thing I just want to pause. Does 979 00:55:03,990 --> 00:55:07,200 this woman just like to hear herself talk? Oh, yeah, she 980 00:55:07,200 --> 00:55:07,800 looks in the mirror 981 00:55:07,800 --> 00:55:10,590 Adam Curry: every morning and does this. She says she calls it 982 00:55:10,800 --> 00:55:16,380 what Russia's war of aggression on Ukraine. So not the war on 983 00:55:16,380 --> 00:55:19,590 Ukraine, Russia's war of aggression. All the words 984 00:55:19,590 --> 00:55:22,380 matter, particularly with these political diplomat types, 985 00:55:22,740 --> 00:55:26,130 Unknown: in particular, because of Russia's war of aggression 986 00:55:26,130 --> 00:55:31,020 against Ukraine. China's position on this is crucial for 987 00:55:31,020 --> 00:55:36,090 the European Union. As a member of the UN Security Council, 988 00:55:36,690 --> 00:55:41,790 there is a big responsibility. And we expect that China will 989 00:55:41,790 --> 00:55:47,760 play its role and promote a just peace, one that respects 990 00:55:47,790 --> 00:55:52,050 Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity, one of 991 00:55:52,050 --> 00:55:54,300 the cornerstones of the UN Charter. 992 00:55:54,689 --> 00:55:57,959 Adam Curry: Okay, so I believe we should declare war on Europe, 993 00:55:58,469 --> 00:56:02,189 at least authorized military use of force because these people 994 00:56:02,189 --> 00:56:05,039 are not on our side. They're playing on a whole dip. They're 995 00:56:05,279 --> 00:56:09,449 there with GE. And if you believe the Russian Foreign 996 00:56:09,449 --> 00:56:12,899 Minister Lavrov, there's a plan behind it. And I think Ursula 997 00:56:12,899 --> 00:56:16,379 wants to be in on the on the new High Council 998 00:56:16,410 --> 00:56:19,530 Unknown: who can bring Russia and Ukraine to the negotiating 999 00:56:19,530 --> 00:56:24,750 table France, China, Brazil. Today, it was Turkey's turn to 1000 00:56:24,750 --> 00:56:27,510 try its hand up convincing the visiting Russian foreign 1001 00:56:27,510 --> 00:56:30,660 minister to seek peace. To be fair, Ankara is in a unique 1002 00:56:30,660 --> 00:56:34,020 position to mediate its NATO membership, and friendly ties 1003 00:56:34,020 --> 00:56:37,020 with Moscow allowed it to broker one of the rare diplomatic 1004 00:56:37,020 --> 00:56:40,110 breakthroughs in the year long war. But when it comes to 1005 00:56:40,110 --> 00:56:43,230 negotiating an end to the conflict, success is likely to 1006 00:56:43,230 --> 00:56:46,590 be more elusive, sitting down with his Turkish counterpart, 1007 00:56:46,860 --> 00:56:51,510 Sergei Lavrov was very clear. For Russia. This is about much 1008 00:56:51,510 --> 00:56:52,800 more than just Ukraine, 1009 00:56:53,430 --> 00:56:57,420 Adam Curry: produced last night, ceasefire negotiations need to 1010 00:56:57,420 --> 00:57:00,840 be based on the principles of the New World Order, which we 1011 00:57:00,840 --> 00:57:05,550 all need, instead of a unipolar world order. In order led by 1012 00:57:05,550 --> 00:57:11,130 one, hegemonic, yeah, I guess who that's not going to be. So 1013 00:57:11,130 --> 00:57:15,030 that's that, that seems like the plan. and the EU is like, okay, 1014 00:57:15,240 --> 00:57:20,790 oh, you can be the head German China. They're just saying it, 1015 00:57:20,820 --> 00:57:21,960 you know, they're just saying it. 1016 00:57:22,260 --> 00:57:24,990 John C Dvorak: I think these countries don't like us. I have 1017 00:57:24,990 --> 00:57:25,560 a feeling 1018 00:57:25,800 --> 00:57:30,600 Adam Curry: wonder why. By the way, that's the quote of the 1019 00:57:30,600 --> 00:57:35,280 year. I think these countries don't like us know, we being 1020 00:57:35,280 --> 00:57:38,670 represented by oughtred. douchebags we'd come across as 1021 00:57:38,670 --> 00:57:42,000 not so nice. Well, all right. 1022 00:57:42,210 --> 00:57:43,350 John C Dvorak: They can eat it. 1023 00:57:43,410 --> 00:57:44,310 Adam Curry: Yes.

And she sees everything going on here. 1034 00:58:16,470 --> 00:58:22,020 Oh, that went on. What the kids did in China during the Cultural 1035 00:58:22,020 --> 00:58:24,600 Revolution, which nobody very few people in our audience 1036 00:58:24,630 --> 00:58:28,530 remember, but it was, it was a mess.

It's a very specific kind of Chinese accent. 1044 00:58:56,190 --> 00:59:00,210 We're not used to hearing, generally speaking, sing songy 1045 00:59:02,250 --> 00:59:05,340 Cantonese accent is what we're more our ears are more used to 1046 00:59:05,340 --> 00:59:07,080 and this is different.

And to say that what 1080 01:01:08,460 --> 01:01:10,470 is happening today in America, 1081 01:01:10,830 --> 01:01:12,600 Adam Curry: wasn't it? Was that also Mao's wife? 1082 01:01:12,600 --> 01:01:15,540 John C Dvorak: Who then completely shoot? Yes, she was 1083 01:01:15,540 --> 01:01:17,970 the worst she got they had to lock her up. 1084 01:01:18,180 --> 01:01:20,550 Adam Curry: And but the kids then went out to ride on their 1085 01:01:20,550 --> 01:01:24,990 parents and get their parents locked up. Right? 1086 01:01:25,410 --> 01:01:29,040 John C Dvorak: Yeah, that was that too. So she's just saying 1087 01:01:29,040 --> 01:01:34,290 that this was going on here to the education system. And it is 1088 01:01:34,710 --> 01:01:39,240 parallel to what was going on in Mao Mao's era. And what's 1089 01:01:39,240 --> 01:01:42,360 interesting is that I have another series of clips about 1090 01:01:42,360 --> 01:01:46,110 this. The last clips that we had a couple of weeks ago, or the 1091 01:01:46,110 --> 01:01:52,410 last show would were where we describe this as Maoism which 1092 01:01:52,410 --> 01:01:56,640 overrides everything else going on. You know, it's just I think 1093 01:01:56,640 --> 01:02:02,010 it's true. I think Mao ism, not necessarily Marxism is what 1094 01:02:02,010 --> 01:02:05,640 we're seeing. And it's very hard to recognize because it's never 1095 01:02:05,640 --> 01:02:11,490 been one of the one of the ways to go as it were for the 1096 01:02:11,490 --> 01:02:13,380 communists. So let me get this right. So 1097 01:02:13,380 --> 01:02:15,900 Adam Curry: let me get this right. We have the war mongering 1098 01:02:16,050 --> 01:02:20,970 mongering politicians, led by people like the Republican 1099 01:02:21,000 --> 01:02:24,090 McCall, that they're all in on it, but let's just say the 1100 01:02:24,090 --> 01:02:27,630 Republicans are typically the war guys. Yeah, let's go to 1101 01:02:27,630 --> 01:02:30,690 Taiwan. Yeah, that's good. Oh, there's McCarthy. Yeah. 1102 01:02:30,900 --> 01:02:33,990 Meanwhile, the Chinese are laughing because they're behind 1103 01:02:33,990 --> 01:02:37,200 us. And the kids are gonna stab the everybody in the back. 1104 01:02:38,280 --> 01:02:39,300 Maybe, okay. 1105 01:02:39,420 --> 01:02:41,130 John C Dvorak: All right. Part Two. 1106 01:02:41,520 --> 01:02:45,240 Unknown: We've seen pro trans activists recently a costing 1107 01:02:45,240 --> 01:02:49,470 NCAA champion, Riley Gaines, after she spoke out for women's 1108 01:02:49,470 --> 01:02:52,740 rights in sports. And it follows a similar event in New Zealand 1109 01:02:52,740 --> 01:02:55,740 where a protester threw sauce on the speaker amid unruly 1110 01:02:55,740 --> 01:02:59,760 protests. Do you see these marks of violence as connected to 1111 01:02:59,760 --> 01:03:01,200 communist ideology? 1112 01:03:01,290 --> 01:03:05,220 Was there certainly use their tactics and our young people in 1113 01:03:05,220 --> 01:03:08,910 this country don't know what they're doing? And they don't 1114 01:03:08,910 --> 01:03:12,750 think and they are the ones who are fascist and the core silence 1115 01:03:12,750 --> 01:03:15,630 other people listen to their right because they are 1116 01:03:15,630 --> 01:03:19,680 brainwashed to believe their cause is number one priority. 1117 01:03:19,680 --> 01:03:23,820 They got to do this, you know, saying right and be part of this 1118 01:03:23,880 --> 01:03:26,880 so called a transgender movement, but they're saying 1119 01:03:26,880 --> 01:03:30,510 it's only if they study history, then they will know Mao, 1120 01:03:30,510 --> 01:03:35,700 actually, us young people, even us young girls, and want them to 1121 01:03:35,730 --> 01:03:39,420 actually look dressed like a boy is like soldiers and to join the 1122 01:03:39,420 --> 01:03:43,440 revolution, destroy you for cultures, and he tried to create 1123 01:03:43,440 --> 01:03:48,360 a tenderness societies erase girls and woman and the gender 1124 01:03:48,360 --> 01:03:52,920 differences and give them all to be loyal to the revolution. And 1125 01:03:52,950 --> 01:03:57,480 so I feel so sorry to say those young people are being used and 1126 01:03:57,480 --> 01:04:01,680 naive, idealistic and now getting involved this kind of 1127 01:04:01,680 --> 01:04:05,940 movement almost use a mob tactics, which can lead to the 1128 01:04:05,940 --> 01:04:10,380 violence and injuring deaths of people to against the 1129 01:04:10,380 --> 01:04:13,710 opposition. So it's not like the bar merch, and we don't have to 1130 01:04:13,710 --> 01:04:16,980 gray with chatter we can have discussion and conversations. 1131 01:04:17,130 --> 01:04:21,540 No, you must be shut up. If you don't agree with 1132 01:04:21,570 --> 01:04:23,700 Adam Curry: us holy, I'm just gonna give this to you. Now, I 1133 01:04:23,700 --> 01:04:29,010 know there's more of this coming. Exactly. Through this 1134 01:04:29,010 --> 01:04:32,010 lens is exactly what we're seeing happening. Although I 1135 01:04:32,010 --> 01:04:33,990 have some clips later when you're done with your 1136 01:04:33,990 --> 01:04:38,730 presentation that show that it may be backfiring. Because Mao 1137 01:04:38,760 --> 01:04:40,980 didn't have a lot of the pharmaceuticals that we're using 1138 01:04:40,980 --> 01:04:44,160 to accelerate this process. Good point. Yeah, accelerate the 1139 01:04:44,160 --> 01:04:46,740 process of girls turning into boys and what do we just 1140 01:04:46,740 --> 01:04:51,600 recently see? We saw a girl dressed as a boy a militant boy. 1141 01:04:51,780 --> 01:04:54,540 And by the way, I have page one of the manifesto which I've 1142 01:04:54,540 --> 01:04:56,010 received I ball, Dre. 1143 01:04:56,010 --> 01:04:58,680 John C Dvorak: Okay. We look forward to that yet. Yes, I 1144 01:04:58,680 --> 01:05:04,260 think the parallel Let's at the transgender character by 1145 01:05:04,260 --> 01:05:09,510 Adam Curry: the way, it's 80%. It's 80% Girls, transitioning to 1146 01:05:09,510 --> 01:05:14,700 men, but with all we see in the news is the men transitioning to 1147 01:05:14,700 --> 01:05:18,990 women. So I believe that to be a huge distraction. So 1148 01:05:18,990 --> 01:05:20,400 John C Dvorak: that's interesting. Well, that's 1149 01:05:20,400 --> 01:05:23,820 exactly what Mauer did. Okay, I wish step three, well, free 1150 01:05:23,820 --> 01:05:26,760 Unknown: speech on college campuses. If you don't agree 1151 01:05:26,760 --> 01:05:29,940 with them, you don't cut out to them. And that will come to shut 1152 01:05:29,940 --> 01:05:34,200 down your speech event, and they will will be even damage you 1153 01:05:34,320 --> 01:05:39,150 personally. In terms of physical health. It's, it's very sad to 1154 01:05:39,150 --> 01:05:40,380 see this happening. 1155 01:05:40,770 --> 01:05:43,710 Adam Curry: Wow. 1156 01:05:43,740 --> 01:05:48,690 John C Dvorak: You know, there was a right or a conservative 1157 01:05:48,690 --> 01:05:54,750 judge speaking at Stanford, to the law department. This was a 1158 01:05:54,750 --> 01:05:59,010 couple of weeks ago, and about half the students walked out. 1159 01:05:59,790 --> 01:06:04,740 Go, yeah. Oh, yeah, I know. And the law firm that were a large 1160 01:06:04,740 --> 01:06:07,440 one. I think it's a large la firm and a couple other law 1161 01:06:07,440 --> 01:06:10,890 firms have now made an edict that they will not accept any 1162 01:06:10,890 --> 01:06:14,580 Stanford Law students as interns. This hasn't been talked 1163 01:06:14,580 --> 01:06:18,600 about too much. Because if this if the students can't even 1164 01:06:18,600 --> 01:06:21,420 listen to another side of an argument, they're obviously not 1165 01:06:21,420 --> 01:06:24,120 not qualified to be legal. Anything. Of 1166 01:06:24,120 --> 01:06:24,990 Adam Curry: course not. 1167 01:06:25,230 --> 01:06:28,980 John C Dvorak: So they got blackballed. Wow. The Stanford 1168 01:06:28,980 --> 01:06:33,540 Law School got blackballed by a bunch of law firms. Good work, 1169 01:06:33,540 --> 01:06:39,900 Dean. Wow. Okay, now this changes gears are in the clip 1170 01:06:39,900 --> 01:06:40,770 three, 1171 01:06:41,880 --> 01:06:42,750 Adam Curry: or four. We're 1172 01:06:42,750 --> 01:06:45,900 John C Dvorak: a clip folks up for it. Now. Chad changes gears 1173 01:06:45,900 --> 01:06:52,410 and clip four. And it is now it did it looks at guns 1174 01:06:52,620 --> 01:06:55,170 Unknown: and turning to gun control. Now, you've been 1175 01:06:55,170 --> 01:06:58,620 alerting people to precedents in history where gun control 1176 01:06:58,620 --> 01:07:02,070 preceded state and forced atrocities? What's the lesson 1177 01:07:02,070 --> 01:07:04,320 that you think that we should draw from that? And and what's 1178 01:07:04,320 --> 01:07:05,280 an example of that? 1179 01:07:05,340 --> 01:07:09,450 Well, that I understand young people want to participate and 1180 01:07:09,450 --> 01:07:13,500 to reduce the crimes and they're very afraid and they live in 1181 01:07:13,500 --> 01:07:17,550 fear. What are they saying is oh, they don't understand the 1182 01:07:17,550 --> 01:07:21,960 truth. They don't send the cause of the problems. Number one gun 1183 01:07:21,960 --> 01:07:25,920 free zones for schools are drawing criminals come to do the 1184 01:07:25,920 --> 01:07:30,030 damage, you do the harm. Because you know, hey, nobody with guns 1185 01:07:30,030 --> 01:07:32,820 legally can shut them down immediately. You have to call 1186 01:07:32,820 --> 01:07:37,380 911 first. And the Secondly, they bought into the leftist 1187 01:07:37,380 --> 01:07:41,850 media rhetoric. So Republicans are the bad people and your 1188 01:07:41,850 --> 01:07:45,570 support Second Amendment right. But the Ted Cruz just offered 1189 01:07:45,570 --> 01:07:50,130 lots of help from the federal government to arm guards to 1190 01:07:50,130 --> 01:07:54,600 protect students safety in schools, and to get more funding 1191 01:07:54,690 --> 01:07:58,110 and the Democrats shot him down. They don't want to talk about 1192 01:07:58,140 --> 01:08:02,100 how to really protect students and teachers, but they just want 1193 01:08:02,100 --> 01:08:06,090 to use gun control. But the gun control we all know whoever fled 1194 01:08:06,300 --> 01:08:11,220 totalitarian regimes, gun control works, because everybody 1195 01:08:11,220 --> 01:08:15,540 will be enslaved. You don't have access to guns, and you cannot 1196 01:08:15,540 --> 01:08:19,320 have way to fight back our founding fathers to put a second 1197 01:08:19,320 --> 01:08:22,740 amendment in the Constitution, because they know that's the 1198 01:08:22,800 --> 01:08:27,600 only way we can stop prevent a tyranny in the United States of 1199 01:08:27,600 --> 01:08:32,400 America, history lessons need to be taught that communism Hivos 1200 01:08:32,430 --> 01:08:35,700 need to be taught in our schools, but our schools not 1201 01:08:35,700 --> 01:08:36,720 focusing on that today. 1202 01:08:37,980 --> 01:08:41,070 Adam Curry: Da Man protect this woman. She's in danger. She's in 1203 01:08:41,070 --> 01:08:42,000 great danger. 1204 01:08:43,380 --> 01:08:47,160 John C Dvorak: Wow, wow. Yeah, this is a Chinese, Chinese 1205 01:08:47,160 --> 01:08:50,100 woman. Cracks me up. Okay. So now this is 1206 01:08:50,580 --> 01:08:53,310 Adam Curry: she is a Chinese woman, right? Yeah, she's from 1207 01:08:53,310 --> 01:08:55,470 China. And but she's in America now. Correct? 1208 01:08:55,500 --> 01:08:57,720 John C Dvorak: Yeah, she's Yeah, she's obviously American now. 1209 01:08:57,750 --> 01:09:01,050 Yeah. Wow. But I just thought no, this is the one that would 1210 01:09:01,050 --> 01:09:03,360 be Clip of the Day. If I was picking one of them. I you can 1211 01:09:03,360 --> 01:09:06,840 give us your final thoughts. And these final thoughts are a 1212 01:09:06,840 --> 01:09:11,490 summary of everything kind of going on in a very concise way 1213 01:09:11,490 --> 01:09:15,150 that a Chinese woman from that experience, a cultural 1214 01:09:15,150 --> 01:09:19,620 revolution might see more clear than most of us. And I just 1215 01:09:19,620 --> 01:09:23,010 thought this was, again, it's kind of borderline pidgin 1216 01:09:23,010 --> 01:09:27,000 English, but it's just a dynamite. Final thought. 1217 01:09:27,390 --> 01:09:30,330 Unknown: Now our focus on Marxism, socialism, transgender 1218 01:09:30,330 --> 01:09:34,290 data and identity politics. America is a systemic racist 1219 01:09:34,290 --> 01:09:39,090 country capitalism bad. It's very terrifying for me to say 1220 01:09:39,090 --> 01:09:42,900 that, did the communists follow me come to America or they're 1221 01:09:42,900 --> 01:09:46,380 always a worst Western countries. Maybe we don't call 1222 01:09:46,380 --> 01:09:49,770 them communist because people don't recognize they are 1223 01:09:49,830 --> 01:09:53,550 actually used the communist tactics to divide people to do 1224 01:09:53,550 --> 01:09:57,720 the revolutions. So it takes us immigrants, who says the 1225 01:09:57,720 --> 01:10:01,710 writing's on the wall to come out. Ha publicly and loudly to 1226 01:10:01,740 --> 01:10:05,610 educate the public to warn people we don't want go down 1227 01:10:05,700 --> 01:10:06,660 that paths. 1228 01:10:07,320 --> 01:10:10,020 Adam Curry: Yeah. Wow, that's really good. They're commies 1229 01:10:10,020 --> 01:10:12,570 everywhere in our backyard. They're the commies are in 1230 01:10:12,570 --> 01:10:18,180 Congress. They don't call them communists you know that's dupes 1231 01:10:18,180 --> 01:10:20,550 more than anything. Okay, so let's let's put some of this 1232 01:10:20,550 --> 01:10:24,660 into practice. Let's take a look at a couple of things. So it 1233 01:10:24,660 --> 01:10:28,320 really interestingly all of what she said surrounds the Tennessee 1234 01:10:28,350 --> 01:10:32,850 School shooting a lot of things and they end with Tennessee man, 1235 01:10:32,850 --> 01:10:36,780 they threw it all at the kitchen sink. They brought in black 1236 01:10:36,780 --> 01:10:40,170 people they blocked brought in children protesting it's all 1237 01:10:40,170 --> 01:10:43,620 about get rid of guns. I mean, it was it's been mayhem. 1238 01:10:43,620 --> 01:10:48,390 Tennessee right now is ground Central. And this is what we get 1239 01:10:48,390 --> 01:10:53,910 from Karina Abdul Jabbar Van Damme. Pierre, first about, 1240 01:10:54,090 --> 01:10:56,760 we'll just listen to the question and what she says 1241 01:10:57,630 --> 01:11:01,530 Unknown: former Vice President Pence said the shooter who 1242 01:11:01,530 --> 01:11:06,450 killed six people. Christian School testing was motivated, 1243 01:11:06,480 --> 01:11:09,420 motivated by hatred towards Christians that the crime should 1244 01:11:09,420 --> 01:11:13,350 be categorized as a hate crime. I'm wondering what the President 1245 01:11:13,410 --> 01:11:15,540 thinks of that kind of designation. It's not 1246 01:11:15,540 --> 01:11:16,380 for us to design. 1247 01:11:16,980 --> 01:11:20,310 Adam Curry: Okay, so everything in America is a hate crime. But 1248 01:11:20,310 --> 01:11:24,150 when Christians are targeted, it's not for us to decide. So 1249 01:11:24,150 --> 01:11:27,300 that kind of gives you a clue kind of gives you a clue about 1250 01:11:27,300 --> 01:11:29,790 Yeah, that's about right. And then but you know, and then 1251 01:11:29,790 --> 01:11:33,630 nothing for Hey, Christian kids, we see you we feel bad. You 1252 01:11:33,630 --> 01:11:36,300 know, this is horrible. Whether you are targeted or not. You 1253 01:11:36,300 --> 01:11:38,940 were you had one thing in common. You were kids, and you 1254 01:11:38,940 --> 01:11:40,140 were Christians, but now 1255 01:11:40,290 --> 01:11:46,500 Unknown: LGBTQ i plus kids are resilient. They are fierce, they 1256 01:11:46,500 --> 01:11:51,780 fight back. They're not going anywhere. And we have their 1257 01:11:51,780 --> 01:11:56,670 back, this administration has their back. We are so proud of 1258 01:11:56,670 --> 01:12:00,660 the kids across this country who have organized protest and 1259 01:12:00,660 --> 01:12:04,350 school walkouts, to tell the politicians in their states to 1260 01:12:04,350 --> 01:12:08,910 stop this legislative bullying. I know that these political 1261 01:12:08,910 --> 01:12:13,410 tacks can really take toll on people's mental health. So I 1262 01:12:13,410 --> 01:12:18,480 want to say directly to LGBTQI plus kids, you are loved just as 1263 01:12:18,480 --> 01:12:23,190 you are just the way you are. And if you're feeling 1264 01:12:23,190 --> 01:12:25,350 overwhelmed, you call 988. 1265 01:12:25,830 --> 01:12:28,800 Adam Curry: I mean, how about for the Christian kids or you 1266 01:12:28,800 --> 01:12:31,860 just toss a Bible item here read this you'll feel better. I mean, 1267 01:12:31,860 --> 01:12:35,160 this this is that's that's our administration right now with 1268 01:12:35,160 --> 01:12:40,320 this totally perfect gaslighting press secretary. She is actually 1269 01:12:40,320 --> 01:12:44,700 really good. She's doing her job because the press corps and 1270 01:12:44,880 --> 01:12:48,420 everyone's doing us a great disservice. They're all focused 1271 01:12:48,450 --> 01:12:51,930 on I'm just going along with Wu Tang Clan lady you have there. 1272 01:12:51,930 --> 01:12:55,800 I'm going along with that because she's right. Everyone's 1273 01:12:55,800 --> 01:13:00,240 focused on the wrong things. They're focusing on Taiwan. Oh, 1274 01:13:00,240 --> 01:13:03,570 China were horrible. We gotta take care of Oh, yeah, hard for 1275 01:13:03,570 --> 01:13:04,770 trans athletes. What's 1276 01:13:04,770 --> 01:13:07,500 Unknown: not a major development and the debate over transgender 1277 01:13:07,500 --> 01:13:10,200 athletes rights. The Biden administration is now proposing 1278 01:13:10,200 --> 01:13:13,440 new regulations that would prevent schools and colleges 1279 01:13:13,440 --> 01:13:17,430 from enacting outright bans in sports. This is going to set up 1280 01:13:17,430 --> 01:13:20,490 a clash with states that have already put them in place. CBS 1281 01:13:20,490 --> 01:13:23,250 is Ed O'Keefe is at the White House with the new details. Good 1282 01:13:23,250 --> 01:13:23,850 evening, Ed. 1283 01:13:24,030 --> 01:13:27,150 Good evening, Nora. The proposed change would make categorically 1284 01:13:27,150 --> 01:13:30,540 banning all transgender athletes a violation of Title Nine, the 1285 01:13:30,540 --> 01:13:33,000 federal law barring schools from discriminating on the basis of 1286 01:13:33,000 --> 01:13:36,390 sex, just this week, Kansas became the 20th state to impose 1287 01:13:36,390 --> 01:13:39,750 a blanket ban. But the new rule would also allow K through 12 1288 01:13:39,750 --> 01:13:42,600 schools and universities to restrict, in some cases, the 1289 01:13:42,600 --> 01:13:45,480 participation of transgender students if it undermines 1290 01:13:45,480 --> 01:13:48,630 fairness on the field or could lead to injuries. It's in 1291 01:13:48,630 --> 01:13:51,300 essence, a compromise between those seeking to ban transgender 1292 01:13:51,300 --> 01:13:54,030 athletes because they might have an unfair advantage. And those 1293 01:13:54,030 --> 01:13:56,610 trying to protect transgender athletes rights to participate 1294 01:13:56,610 --> 01:13:59,790 in sports consistent with their gender identity. There are 1295 01:13:59,790 --> 01:14:02,460 several current federal court challenges to the blanket bans 1296 01:14:02,460 --> 01:14:05,280 across the country, setting up a confrontation between the Biden 1297 01:14:05,280 --> 01:14:07,980 administration and mostly Republican led states. 1298 01:14:08,010 --> 01:14:11,280 Adam Curry: So this of course, has people preoccupied mainly 1299 01:14:11,280 --> 01:14:13,650 women because hey, wait a minute, we're getting robbed out 1300 01:14:13,650 --> 01:14:17,610 of the so to speak out of the equation here. And this is a 1301 01:14:17,610 --> 01:14:20,700 it's an obsession for many while it is of course, incredibly 1302 01:14:20,700 --> 01:14:23,280 important, it is not what's going on and I watched this 1303 01:14:23,280 --> 01:14:27,600 documentary, affirmation generation it's on YouTube, but 1304 01:14:27,600 --> 01:14:30,600 put a link in the show notes about an hour and a half. And is 1305 01:14:30,780 --> 01:14:36,900 pretty much all children who've and now, young young adults who 1306 01:14:36,900 --> 01:14:42,720 have D transitioned, which by the way is about 83% versus a 3% 1307 01:14:42,720 --> 01:14:45,510 lie that the Association for pediatric there they're the bad 1308 01:14:45,510 --> 01:14:49,530 guys, the American Association for pediatrics, they are liars. 1309 01:14:49,650 --> 01:14:55,470 They give misinformation and worse. It what has happened, I 1310 01:14:55,470 --> 01:14:59,220 mean, we know about a little bit, but the big pharma the 1311 01:14:59,220 --> 01:15:02,970 pharmaceutical industry has gotten to the point where you 1312 01:15:02,970 --> 01:15:06,690 can walk into any therapists office, they can declare you 1313 01:15:06,690 --> 01:15:11,220 trans even though you may have, you know, like you're a teenage 1314 01:15:11,220 --> 01:15:13,230 girl that you're going through all kinds of things you hate 1315 01:15:13,230 --> 01:15:16,350 your body, you know, you have anxiety, there's all these 1316 01:15:16,350 --> 01:15:19,230 things and No, no, you're trans, it's obvious, and everything 1317 01:15:19,230 --> 01:15:22,350 else falls by the wayside. And that is what the therapists are 1318 01:15:22,350 --> 01:15:26,430 being told is the is the new science. And most of them, of 1319 01:15:26,430 --> 01:15:29,310 course, when you get it from the Association of Pediatrics, like, 1320 01:15:29,700 --> 01:15:34,170 obviously, we got to follow that you can put them on testosterone 1321 01:15:34,170 --> 01:15:36,930 or estrogen depending on which way you go in. But testosterone 1322 01:15:36,930 --> 01:15:40,800 is mainly for the girls 80% of the children transitioning or 1323 01:15:40,800 --> 01:15:43,920 throwing some social media throwing some filters on 1324 01:15:43,920 --> 01:15:47,040 Instagram. So of course, you don't look the way you like the 1325 01:15:47,040 --> 01:15:50,400 way you look, this thing has all these therapists who are now 1326 01:15:50,400 --> 01:15:55,740 speaking up talking about what is actually happening. And the 1327 01:15:55,740 --> 01:16:00,150 crazy thing is that this is really only still taking place 1328 01:16:00,180 --> 01:16:04,410 in America. Whereas the countries that that pioneered 1329 01:16:04,410 --> 01:16:08,070 this, in fact, the happiest country on Earth, Finland, they 1330 01:16:08,070 --> 01:16:12,900 are now turning back from this practice saying not only should 1331 01:16:12,900 --> 01:16:17,610 it not be done, it is incredibly harmful. The things that happen 1332 01:16:17,610 --> 01:16:20,970 to girls, particularly with testosterone, as you pointed out 1333 01:16:20,970 --> 01:16:25,140 on the last show, ultimately just sterilizes them it leads to 1334 01:16:25,140 --> 01:16:30,420 suicide, you know, so what would you rather have a live boy or a 1335 01:16:30,420 --> 01:16:33,690 dead girl you know, alive son or dead daughter. These are all 1336 01:16:33,690 --> 01:16:37,950 incredibly horrible, horrific gaslighting things said by our 1337 01:16:37,950 --> 01:16:42,060 professionals in the medical industry. I pulled a minute and 1338 01:16:42,060 --> 01:16:44,820 a half clip from this documentary specifically about 1339 01:16:44,850 --> 01:16:48,420 how the rest of the world is not in on this dumb shit. And we are 1340 01:16:48,510 --> 01:16:51,990 Unknown: the big news stories overnight. The NHS to close the 1341 01:16:51,990 --> 01:16:57,570 UK is only dedicated gender identity clinic for children and 1342 01:16:57,570 --> 01:16:58,410 young people. 1343 01:16:58,440 --> 01:17:01,680 NHS England has announced the closure of its controversial 1344 01:17:01,680 --> 01:17:05,070 gender identity clinic for children. After an independent 1345 01:17:05,070 --> 01:17:07,530 report found it was not fit for purpose it 1346 01:17:07,530 --> 01:17:10,950 gives Tavistock C's have many other problems. And they're very 1347 01:17:10,950 --> 01:17:14,100 high rates of autistic spectrum disorders, self harm, 1348 01:17:14,100 --> 01:17:17,670 depression, anxiety, all of these sorts of things. And those 1349 01:17:17,670 --> 01:17:20,790 things aren't dealt with because there's this weird way that as 1350 01:17:20,790 --> 01:17:23,910 soon as somebody says gender, they don't do anything else. And 1351 01:17:23,910 --> 01:17:26,640 the second problem is that the Tavistock has this hugely 1352 01:17:26,640 --> 01:17:29,970 ideological approach, it hasn't been doing good medicine, it 1353 01:17:29,970 --> 01:17:32,190 hasn't been keeping records, it hasn't been doing proper 1354 01:17:32,190 --> 01:17:35,880 research. It hasn't been investigating the reasons behind 1355 01:17:35,880 --> 01:17:38,970 a child's trans identity. They've just been assuming that 1356 01:17:38,970 --> 01:17:43,260 a child who says I'm trans is trans, and putting them on these 1357 01:17:43,260 --> 01:17:46,890 very poorly researched pathways with puberty blockers and cross 1358 01:17:46,890 --> 01:17:47,850 sex hormones. 1359 01:17:48,420 --> 01:17:50,700 The US is getting more out of step with the rest of the world 1360 01:17:50,760 --> 01:17:54,450 every day. There are several progressive countries, that the 1361 01:17:54,450 --> 01:17:57,780 ones that like pioneered pediatric gender transition, and 1362 01:17:57,780 --> 01:18:01,590 they are reconsidering what they've been doing. Sweden was 1363 01:18:01,590 --> 01:18:04,650 the first country to recognize, you know, the legal status of 1364 01:18:04,650 --> 01:18:08,610 trans people. And they just issued new guidelines, where 1365 01:18:08,610 --> 01:18:11,940 they say gender transitioning of minors should only be done for 1366 01:18:11,940 --> 01:18:16,020 exceptional cases and in tightly controlled clinical studies. And 1367 01:18:16,020 --> 01:18:20,610 there are no studies going on right now. Finland did a similar 1368 01:18:20,610 --> 01:18:25,200 thing two years ago, in the last 12 months, we've heard from the 1369 01:18:25,200 --> 01:18:29,370 French Academy of Medicine, the Australian psychiatrists and 1370 01:18:29,370 --> 01:18:32,910 Italian psycho analysts all expressing concern. So all of 1371 01:18:32,910 --> 01:18:37,920 these changes are at least in Sweden, Finland and England 1372 01:18:37,920 --> 01:18:42,030 followed, commissioned systematic review of the 1373 01:18:42,030 --> 01:18:46,530 evidence, which found either no benefits to use gender 1374 01:18:46,530 --> 01:18:49,200 transitions, or even that the harms outweighed the 1375 01:18:49,200 --> 01:18:50,010 benefits 1376 01:18:50,430 --> 01:18:56,010 Adam Curry: show. This is now painfully obvious to me. We are 1377 01:18:56,010 --> 01:19:01,170 being gaslit from all sides, particularly with the male to 1378 01:19:01,170 --> 01:19:04,800 female transitioning, while they're building an army. 1379 01:19:05,070 --> 01:19:08,310 Literally, I'm just going to say literally going out and killing 1380 01:19:08,310 --> 01:19:15,690 people of Maoist girls. I mean, this this brings the whole thing 1381 01:19:15,690 --> 01:19:20,730 together, John. And then if just for some yucks, I'll throw in 1382 01:19:20,730 --> 01:19:24,750 some of the distraction because Bud Light, of course, you know, 1383 01:19:24,780 --> 01:19:28,860 is it is a distraction. It's a distraction. We all get mad, and 1384 01:19:28,860 --> 01:19:31,920 we all know, it's sure it's great that you know, Kid Rock 1385 01:19:31,920 --> 01:19:35,400 shoots up the bud light, but we're missing what is the 80% of 1386 01:19:35,400 --> 01:19:40,680 children are being mouthy Stickley transformed into an 1387 01:19:40,680 --> 01:19:45,360 army ready to fight ready to get angry ready to commit, in 1388 01:19:45,360 --> 01:19:49,980 essence, an insurrection on the Tennessee State House. Although 1389 01:19:49,980 --> 01:19:53,550 of course, you know, we can draw that comparison. And then they 1390 01:19:53,550 --> 01:19:59,100 take the dumbest individuals in our society, the weakest morons 1391 01:19:59,490 --> 01:20:06,300 like the VP of Bud Light elicit Gordon Heiner Scheidt to to 1392 01:20:06,300 --> 01:20:12,150 ruin. They're willing to ruin a pretty well known brand to 1393 01:20:12,150 --> 01:20:16,740 distract us, I guess, from all of this idiocy. But it also 1394 01:20:16,740 --> 01:20:21,060 shows you how the left thinks about this man it is the left it 1395 01:20:21,060 --> 01:20:24,510 is. And in fact, in the documentary, these are all 1396 01:20:24,510 --> 01:20:27,630 Democrats, the whole thing was made by Democrats, they say if 1397 01:20:27,630 --> 01:20:31,290 they get in the credits, they make it very clear. We are, we 1398 01:20:31,290 --> 01:20:35,820 are progressive Democrats. And it's our fault. We have been 1399 01:20:35,820 --> 01:20:39,390 doing this. So listen, she was on a podcast. Of course, that's 1400 01:20:39,390 --> 01:20:42,780 where people always screw up. Just a little, a little clip 1401 01:20:42,780 --> 01:20:47,340 here. Just a little background of who she is the first brand 1402 01:20:47,340 --> 01:20:49,350 manager of any beer as far as we know, 1403 01:20:49,380 --> 01:20:54,570 Unknown: being the first woman to lead Bud Light, the biggest 1404 01:20:54,570 --> 01:21:02,580 fear brand kind of in the world. It's it's been. It's humbling. 1405 01:21:02,640 --> 01:21:07,380 And I'm incredibly grateful. It's taken kind of 41 years for 1406 01:21:07,380 --> 01:21:10,230 a woman to be in this spot. And she's 41 1407 01:21:10,950 --> 01:21:13,890 Adam Curry: She thinks is that it's taken her 41 years. But no, 1408 01:21:13,890 --> 01:21:16,590 it's it's taken 41 years for a woman to be in the spot. 1409 01:21:16,620 --> 01:21:20,370 Unknown: We grateful it's taken kind of 41 years for a woman to 1410 01:21:20,370 --> 01:21:23,970 be in this spot. And I think it's sometimes helpful just sort 1411 01:21:23,970 --> 01:21:24,030 of 1412 01:21:24,240 --> 01:21:30,300 John C Dvorak: a second. That's her age 41. So she so 1413 01:21:30,300 --> 01:21:34,110 everything's about her. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Because bear has 1414 01:21:34,110 --> 01:21:37,830 been around a lot longer than 41 years. I hope she knows that. 1415 01:21:37,860 --> 01:21:39,600 Adam Curry: No, no, no, I told you, she's 1416 01:21:39,600 --> 01:21:44,220 Unknown: don't realize that. This, this is the spot like this 1417 01:21:44,220 --> 01:21:48,780 is where I think I had maybe even dreamed of being in some 1418 01:21:48,780 --> 01:21:52,350 kind of position like this. And so kind of being happy in the 1419 01:21:52,350 --> 01:21:56,280 here and now is a part of what I'm trying to kind of draw. 1420 01:21:56,610 --> 01:21:58,410 Adam Curry: This is where I would say thank you for coming 1421 01:21:58,410 --> 01:22:01,290 into interview, you can leave we have no interest in hiring you 1422 01:22:01,290 --> 01:22:01,890 but no 1423 01:22:02,040 --> 01:22:06,450 Unknown: joy and energy from and particularly it's an interesting 1424 01:22:06,450 --> 01:22:12,150 dynamic, as a woman in a in a very male dominated vise 1425 01:22:12,150 --> 01:22:13,410 industry, like vice 1426 01:22:13,410 --> 01:22:15,450 Adam Curry: industry.

Not beverage, I'd fire on the spot for saying that. Of 1429 01:22:25,260 --> 01:22:30,960 course. Of course you would. I'm in the vise industry. Whoa, what 1430 01:22:30,960 --> 01:22:32,310 else is in the vise industry? 1431 01:22:32,969 --> 01:22:33,989 John C Dvorak: Oh my god. 1432 01:22:34,110 --> 01:22:36,900 Unknown: And particularly, it's an interesting dynamic as a 1433 01:22:36,900 --> 01:22:42,330 woman in a in a very male dominated vise industry, like, 1434 01:22:42,360 --> 01:22:46,980 like beer in. It's been a long road, Chris, and it's sort of 1435 01:22:50,220 --> 01:22:53,910 John C Dvorak: she's saying the product that they make is a vise 1436 01:22:53,910 --> 01:22:59,700 correct? Let's look at the definition of you the guy this 1437 01:22:59,700 --> 01:23:08,670 is this clip of the day tube. When you're done, 1438 01:23:10,530 --> 01:23:12,540 Adam Curry: I took it I took it otherwise you won't give it to 1439 01:23:12,540 --> 01:23:14,070 me later you always forget. No, no, 1440 01:23:14,490 --> 01:23:16,740 John C Dvorak: I don't pull back. Pull back. 1441 01:23:16,770 --> 01:23:18,990 Adam Curry: Don't pull back. Nice, 1442 01:23:19,290 --> 01:23:23,430 John C Dvorak: moral or wicked behavior top definition. Wow, 1443 01:23:23,460 --> 01:23:30,150 immoral, or wicked behavior. So she's in the business. Happily 1444 01:23:30,150 --> 01:23:34,440 in the business of providing of morality. She dressed 1445 01:23:34,440 --> 01:23:37,380 Adam Curry: what she said yes. She dreamt of this in some ways. 1446 01:23:37,380 --> 01:23:40,620 As a child, she wants to be in the immorality. Why don't you 1447 01:23:40,620 --> 01:23:41,490 just go become 1448 01:23:41,490 --> 01:23:43,200 John C Dvorak: a whore? Oh, there we go. 1449 01:23:44,250 --> 01:23:49,200 Unknown: Ben, it's humbling. And I'm incredibly grateful. It's 1450 01:23:49,200 --> 01:23:54,000 taken kind of 41 years for a woman to be in this spot. And I 1451 01:23:54,000 --> 01:23:58,680 think it's sometimes helpful to just sort of recognize that this 1452 01:23:58,710 --> 01:24:03,630 this is the spot like this is where I think I had maybe even 1453 01:24:03,660 --> 01:24:07,560 dreamed of being in some kind of position like this. And so kind 1454 01:24:07,560 --> 01:24:11,430 of being happy in the here and now is a part of what I'm trying 1455 01:24:11,430 --> 01:24:16,920 to kind of draw joy and energy from. And particularly, it's an 1456 01:24:16,920 --> 01:24:21,810 interesting dynamic, as a woman in a in a very male dominated 1457 01:24:22,650 --> 01:24:27,450 vise industry, like, like beer in. It's been a long road, 1458 01:24:27,660 --> 01:24:33,780 Chris, and it's sort of it's been tense and hard. But it's 1459 01:24:33,780 --> 01:24:39,690 also it's also brought a lot of clarity and perspective about 1460 01:24:40,260 --> 01:24:44,160 kind of who I want to be and how I want to operate in the world. 1461 01:24:45,000 --> 01:24:47,700 And I would say the most important thing about this job 1462 01:24:47,700 --> 01:24:53,040 is that you deprioritize bringing other people along the 1463 01:24:53,040 --> 01:24:57,930 way community and women I mean, it's just it doesn't mean 1464 01:24:57,930 --> 01:25:02,220 anything unless I empower sort of really impacting other 1465 01:25:02,220 --> 01:25:06,390 people. And so that's been just incredibly important to me my 1466 01:25:06,390 --> 01:25:10,560 decisions with teams, I mean, I, I try to build teams of people 1467 01:25:10,860 --> 01:25:14,580 who, maybe nobody else has taken a chance on them. I try to bet 1468 01:25:14,580 --> 01:25:17,130 on people who haven't had the opportunity, but on people with 1469 01:25:17,130 --> 01:25:20,280 similar values as me who are hungry, and want to do great 1470 01:25:20,280 --> 01:25:22,830 things, but care about each other, and protect each other 1471 01:25:22,830 --> 01:25:24,450 and are kind and good. And 1472 01:25:24,720 --> 01:25:27,510 Adam Curry: hey, how about selling some beer? 1473 01:25:28,020 --> 01:25:32,370 John C Dvorak: Holy moly, this woman is full of herself. 1474 01:25:33,270 --> 01:25:34,950 selling beer. 1475 01:25:36,120 --> 01:25:39,450 Adam Curry: It is called a vise industry that may be maybe a 1476 01:25:39,450 --> 01:25:43,680 legalistic term, actually, now that I think about it. So it but 1477 01:25:43,680 --> 01:25:46,050 that's certainly not it, let's put it this way. It can be 1478 01:25:46,050 --> 01:25:50,430 legally that. But as a brand manager, you would never talk 1479 01:25:50,430 --> 01:25:53,970 about your industry as being part of a vise industry or your 1480 01:25:53,970 --> 01:25:59,370 product, or any of that. So of course, what do you want for a 1481 01:25:59,370 --> 01:26:04,230 beer? What do you want for beer you want? If you're if you're if 1482 01:26:04,230 --> 01:26:07,260 you're if you're in charge of the brand, and you know, this, 1483 01:26:07,290 --> 01:26:13,440 this beer, of course, this brand has, you know, has a particular 1484 01:26:13,440 --> 01:26:18,720 look or particular vibe, you know, we had a dog spuds, what 1485 01:26:18,720 --> 01:26:19,500 do you want? Well, 1486 01:26:19,710 --> 01:26:23,160 Unknown: and I try to bring that honestly, female representation 1487 01:26:23,160 --> 01:26:26,160 in this role has been something I've been really committed to 1488 01:26:26,190 --> 01:26:29,340 Adam Curry: bring more women into selling the beer that men 1489 01:26:29,340 --> 01:26:30,120 like to drink. 1490 01:26:30,390 --> 01:26:31,980 Unknown: We can talk a little bit about that if you want, but 1491 01:26:31,980 --> 01:26:37,380 it's been ever since I took this job. I wanted to try to move the 1492 01:26:37,380 --> 01:26:41,010 needle in some small choices along the way to sort of say 1493 01:26:41,010 --> 01:26:43,920 this matters to me. It's the same when I'm dealing with 1494 01:26:44,280 --> 01:26:47,820 celebrities or sponsorships or partnerships. It's my commitment 1495 01:26:47,820 --> 01:26:51,870 to sort of bring others along with me. 1496 01:26:51,960 --> 01:26:57,420 Adam Curry: So to bring female representation with celebrity 1497 01:26:57,420 --> 01:27:03,780 brands represent yo influencers you bring in a dude. Okay, that 1498 01:27:03,780 --> 01:27:07,710 makes total sense. How about as a business woman, 1499 01:27:07,740 --> 01:27:09,810 Unknown: you know, I'm a business woman, I had a really 1500 01:27:09,810 --> 01:27:14,850 clear job to do when I took over Bud Light. And it was this brand 1501 01:27:14,850 --> 01:27:17,670 is in decline. It's been in decline for a really long time. 1502 01:27:18,000 --> 01:27:21,030 And if we do not attract the brand 1503 01:27:21,030 --> 01:27:23,520 Adam Curry: has been in decline for a really long time. She says 1504 01:27:24,330 --> 01:27:25,650 John C Dvorak: I didn't know this. Well 1505 01:27:26,880 --> 01:27:28,770 Adam Curry: consult the book of knowledge. I mean, I don't know 1506 01:27:28,770 --> 01:27:35,490 it's like, is Bud Light in decline? I mean, that sounds 1507 01:27:35,490 --> 01:27:38,220 like you're a loser. Yeah, 1508 01:27:38,340 --> 01:27:39,330 Unknown: huh. 1509 01:27:39,420 --> 01:27:40,530 John C Dvorak: Damn that company. 1510 01:27:42,780 --> 01:27:47,910 Adam Curry: Let me see. I don't see any I don't see anything 1511 01:27:47,910 --> 01:27:48,690 Well, let's keep going 1512 01:27:48,870 --> 01:27:51,510 Unknown: young drinkers to come and drink this brand there will 1513 01:27:51,510 --> 01:27:54,570 be no future for Bud Light. So I had this super clear mandate 1514 01:27:54,600 --> 01:27:57,090 it's like we need to evolve and elevate this 1515 01:27:57,120 --> 01:27:59,490 Adam Curry: this is some Okay, here's what I would say. And 1516 01:27:59,490 --> 01:28:03,960 again, I do come a little bit from this world. I do notice 1517 01:28:04,140 --> 01:28:06,840 these brands in this family at least what they used to be 25 1518 01:28:06,840 --> 01:28:11,850 years ago if you if your number one beer and everything is 1519 01:28:12,060 --> 01:28:16,500 rockin and rollin like whoa, I'm I'm crushing it, we're just you 1520 01:28:16,500 --> 01:28:20,490 have that sales are off the chart then you can say, Well, 1521 01:28:20,490 --> 01:28:23,430 when I came in, it was a it was a brand in decline. And we knew 1522 01:28:23,430 --> 01:28:27,540 we had to do something. So but she is saying there's no proof 1523 01:28:27,540 --> 01:28:30,720 that her strategy she's only been in since February, just 1524 01:28:30,720 --> 01:28:33,150 when she came in just before the Super Bowl. Do you remember the 1525 01:28:33,150 --> 01:28:37,950 Superbowl commercials? No, of course you don't know of course 1526 01:28:37,950 --> 01:28:43,830 you don't. But I remember the dumb dog from 20 years ago had a 1527 01:28:43,830 --> 01:28:48,420 beautiful dog of mine. So you know so this is what she's 1528 01:28:48,420 --> 01:28:52,440 saying here is stuff you say once you've crushed it, not like 1529 01:28:52,440 --> 01:28:55,830 well you know I came in two months ago and it's a brand in 1530 01:28:55,830 --> 01:28:58,980 decline. So you know, if I don't do something this thing is gonna 1531 01:28:58,980 --> 01:29:00,000 die on the vine 1532 01:29:00,030 --> 01:29:02,910 Unknown: and in decline for a really long time. And if we do 1533 01:29:02,910 --> 01:29:07,020 not attract young drinkers to come and drink this brand, there 1534 01:29:07,020 --> 01:29:09,840 will be no future for Bud Light. So I had this super clear 1535 01:29:09,840 --> 01:29:13,260 mandate it's like we need to evolve and elevate this 1536 01:29:13,260 --> 01:29:18,060 incredibly iconic brand and my what I brought to that was a 1537 01:29:18,060 --> 01:29:22,980 belief in okay what is what does evolve and elevate mean? It 1538 01:29:22,980 --> 01:29:25,800 means inclusivity it means shifting the tone. 1539 01:29:27,210 --> 01:29:33,180 John C Dvorak: Stop this, stop this. Immediate just read from a 1540 01:29:33,690 --> 01:29:40,080 marketing actually some this came in February. This is from 1541 01:29:40,080 --> 01:29:44,850 2020 Okay in decline for a very long time. Sales, especially 1542 01:29:44,850 --> 01:29:50,220 bruiser definitely rising, the nation. 7500 Plus craft brewery 1543 01:29:50,220 --> 01:29:55,920 shipped a total of 25.9 barrels that 7500 craft breweries 1544 01:29:57,120 --> 01:30:04,050 shipped 25 million just quote from an 2020 article, which is, 1545 01:30:04,560 --> 01:30:07,800 it's been in decline for a long time. If the amount of craft 1546 01:30:07,800 --> 01:30:12,000 beer sold sounds impressive, consider the nation's number one 1547 01:30:12,000 --> 01:30:17,730 beer brand Bud Light alone shipped 27 point 2 million 1548 01:30:17,730 --> 01:30:19,230 barrels last year 1549 01:30:21,210 --> 01:30:23,580 Adam Curry: in decline. Now, how's 1550 01:30:23,580 --> 01:30:28,950 John C Dvorak: that in decline? for a really long time there for 1551 01:30:28,950 --> 01:30:31,770 a really long time? What does that mean to you five years? 10? 1552 01:30:31,830 --> 01:30:37,920 I don't know. Number one brand beer outsold 7500 craft 1553 01:30:37,920 --> 01:30:41,790 breweries in and of itself. Okay, so now we know the woman 1554 01:30:41,790 --> 01:30:45,060 is full of shit. So let's continue the clip. 1555 01:30:45,630 --> 01:30:47,910 Unknown: What is our what are what does evolve and elevate 1556 01:30:47,910 --> 01:30:51,960 mean? It means inclusivity it means shifting the tone. It 1557 01:30:51,960 --> 01:30:56,640 means having a campaign that's truly inclusive and feels 1558 01:30:56,670 --> 01:30:59,550 lighter and brighter and different and appeals to women 1559 01:30:59,550 --> 01:31:03,120 and to men. And representation is it sort of the heart of 1560 01:31:03,120 --> 01:31:05,520 evolution, you've got to see people who reflect 1561 01:31:05,520 --> 01:31:06,660 representation 1562 01:31:06,660 --> 01:31:09,990 Adam Curry: is at the heart of evolution, inclusive and 1563 01:31:09,990 --> 01:31:12,510 Unknown: feels lighter and brighter and different and 1564 01:31:12,510 --> 01:31:16,470 appeals to women and to men. And representation. Is it sort of 1565 01:31:16,470 --> 01:31:19,470 the heart of evolution, you've got to see people who reflect 1566 01:31:19,470 --> 01:31:24,420 you in the work and we had this hangover. I mean, Bud Light had 1567 01:31:24,420 --> 01:31:32,160 been kind of a brand of Friday, kind of out of touch humor, and 1568 01:31:32,190 --> 01:31:36,090 it was really important that we had another approach. 1569 01:31:36,450 --> 01:31:39,750 Adam Curry: We really liked the stupid humor. We'd liked your 1570 01:31:39,750 --> 01:31:46,620 dumb dog and we liked your water with Hopson rice. Come on. Just 1571 01:31:46,620 --> 01:31:50,880 Hara Kiri, and the Belgians did it. It must be the InBev guys 1572 01:31:50,880 --> 01:31:53,760 who bought Anheuser Busch, they must have brought her in their 1573 01:31:53,760 --> 01:31:56,730 whole point. Well, we need to distract the stupid Americans. 1574 01:31:56,880 --> 01:31:59,460 This woman will do it don't worry, she'll ruin this brand. 1575 01:31:59,460 --> 01:32:01,920 Everyone would get all mad. We got it. 1576 01:32:02,219 --> 01:32:04,169 John C Dvorak: If you're a Belgian and you're looking at 1577 01:32:04,709 --> 01:32:09,239 the number one brand Bud Light, you're going this beers terrible 1578 01:32:09,479 --> 01:32:14,159 compared to our good Belgian or Stella that make us fat. Yeah. 1579 01:32:14,849 --> 01:32:15,959 Yeah, exactly. 1580 01:32:16,320 --> 01:32:20,640 It's possible. It might be a sabotage methodology. Well, why 1581 01:32:20,640 --> 01:32:22,950 not? They can still make tons of money. 1582 01:32:22,980 --> 01:32:25,170 Adam Curry: Well, I mean, I could be wrong, but it would 1583 01:32:25,170 --> 01:32:31,020 seem possible that that I think it if this if this does what is 1584 01:32:31,020 --> 01:32:34,260 happening with these brands? I don't know maybe maybe sales 1585 01:32:34,260 --> 01:32:37,770 will go through the roof. I have no idea. Maybe I'm crazy telling 1586 01:32:37,770 --> 01:32:40,530 thanks. So maybe I'm I don't know, maybe I'm crazy. 1587 01:32:41,130 --> 01:32:42,990 John C Dvorak: Well, that's beside the point. 1588 01:32:43,349 --> 01:32:48,509 Adam Curry: Thanks. But this is all the distraction. Just going 1589 01:32:48,509 --> 01:32:52,109 back to your original point. This is all distraction. Don't 1590 01:32:52,109 --> 01:32:55,829 pay attention to it. Pay attention to our girls. Our 1591 01:32:55,829 --> 01:32:59,189 girls who admit first we had to get them out of the nuclear 1592 01:32:59,189 --> 01:33:02,729 family with Black Lives Matter. Now we have to just sterilize 1593 01:33:02,729 --> 01:33:06,569 them. And they can walk right into Planned Parenthood number 1594 01:33:06,569 --> 01:33:10,079 one spot you can walk in and walk out on testosterone the 1595 01:33:10,079 --> 01:33:15,779 same day. And I'll never forget the guy I met who said you know 1596 01:33:15,779 --> 01:33:19,919 therapist, you can spell it two ways therapist or the rapist. I 1597 01:33:19,919 --> 01:33:23,969 think we have a huge problem with these therapists. And they 1598 01:33:23,969 --> 01:33:27,569 have to be put on notice. And the American Association of 1599 01:33:27,569 --> 01:33:31,499 Pediatrics it is it is watched his documentary. And it's the 1600 01:33:31,499 --> 01:33:34,229 same insanity that we often talk about when people all of a 1601 01:33:34,229 --> 01:33:37,859 sudden decided it was a good idea to get lobotomies. Same, 1602 01:33:37,859 --> 01:33:40,829 same. Good point, same idiocy. 1603 01:33:41,880 --> 01:33:45,660 John C Dvorak: Oh, that was a walk in. That was outpatient. 1604 01:33:45,660 --> 01:33:45,960 Yeah, 1605 01:33:45,990 --> 01:33:48,750 Adam Curry: you walk in and go. Yep, get a lobotomy. I'm good to 1606 01:33:48,750 --> 01:33:54,060 go. And now to, to gaslight us even more, because all of this 1607 01:33:54,120 --> 01:33:57,450 drag time story out. It's a distraction. It's a comment. By 1608 01:33:57,450 --> 01:33:57,600 the 1609 01:33:57,600 --> 01:34:00,000 John C Dvorak: way, I do want to mention, we were on that topic 1610 01:34:00,480 --> 01:34:03,810 that these and we have a big protest in San Francisco today. 1611 01:34:04,500 --> 01:34:09,720 Or yesterday. And it was this idea of anti trans lesbian 1612 01:34:09,780 --> 01:34:12,930 legislation that the term which the mainstream media loves to 1613 01:34:12,930 --> 01:34:15,450 use, it's not anti trans. 1614 01:34:15,900 --> 01:34:18,180 Adam Curry: It's Pro Child pro girl. 1615 01:34:18,510 --> 01:34:22,710 John C Dvorak: It's pro it's pro girl. It's and it's like, it's 1616 01:34:22,710 --> 01:34:27,600 about sports, where you know, you can have a big dude with a 1617 01:34:27,600 --> 01:34:31,950 dick hanging off of him running with the girls in a track meet 1618 01:34:32,130 --> 01:34:35,400 and say that's okay, because he identifies as a woman. This is 1619 01:34:35,400 --> 01:34:39,540 not anti trans is anti bullshit. And it's like, you know, you 1620 01:34:39,540 --> 01:34:44,370 can't teach little two year or a second graders about you know, 1621 01:34:44,370 --> 01:34:48,870 homosexuality, it's just not an fact we were promised, with the 1622 01:34:48,900 --> 01:34:53,040 gay marriage, people going on and on and on. It used to be 1623 01:34:53,040 --> 01:34:57,570 this show called gay news on the cables and they would go on and 1624 01:34:57,570 --> 01:35:01,410 on about doing this doesn't mean we're gonna do anything in the 1625 01:35:01,410 --> 01:35:04,920 schools to the grant to the grammar school kids, that's bull 1626 01:35:04,920 --> 01:35:08,670 crap that we don't want to do that, but they're doing it. So 1627 01:35:08,670 --> 01:35:11,310 you have to have this legislation and it's, it's 1628 01:35:11,340 --> 01:35:14,190 unbelievable and they blamed everything's the Republicans 1629 01:35:14,190 --> 01:35:14,610 fault. 1630 01:35:15,000 --> 01:35:17,460 Adam Curry: Well, again, I think that's a distraction. Although 1631 01:35:17,520 --> 01:35:21,570 another problem another problem for girls who ultimately 1632 01:35:22,020 --> 01:35:25,350 happened to become women, all of that as a distraction, were 1633 01:35:25,350 --> 01:35:30,360 yelling about the wrong things, but we need to stop is girls on 1634 01:35:30,360 --> 01:35:33,810 social media?

This is 1676 01:38:13,020 --> 01:38:14,820 Adam Curry: history repeating itself. 1677 01:38:15,390 --> 01:38:17,550 John C Dvorak: So they had this guy being interviewed. This is 1678 01:38:17,550 --> 01:38:19,260 Patrick Byrne. Oh, Patrick 1679 01:38:19,260 --> 01:38:22,080 Adam Curry: Byrne, Overstock CEO, former overstock CEO.

And he 1682 01:38:25,890 --> 01:38:27,240 is not a happy camper. 1683 01:38:28,500 --> 01:38:31,440 Adam Curry: We've played a lot of his stuff in the past, and 1684 01:38:31,440 --> 01:38:34,890 certainly during these good during the 2016 election, and 1685 01:38:34,890 --> 01:38:39,450 then 2020, he had played a big role. And of course, he's a nut 1686 01:38:39,450 --> 01:38:43,560 job Q anon. If you look at any, any other angle besides our 1687 01:38:43,560 --> 01:38:43,980 show? 1688 01:38:45,480 --> 01:38:48,330 John C Dvorak: Yeah, go part one. Patrick Byrne. Here's a 1689 01:38:48,330 --> 01:38:49,080 look, Patrick, I 1690 01:38:49,080 --> 01:38:51,330 Unknown: want to get your thoughts America is often and 1691 01:38:51,330 --> 01:38:55,380 has long been looked at as a beacon of hope around the world. 1692 01:38:56,370 --> 01:38:59,670 Not so much maybe for our adversaries, they're forced to 1693 01:38:59,670 --> 01:39:03,780 respect us oftentimes. So how is the world looking at this both 1694 01:39:03,780 --> 01:39:06,780 our allies and our adversaries? Well, I just 1695 01:39:06,780 --> 01:39:12,570 came back from overseas where I don't in the Gulf, Arab Gulf, 1696 01:39:12,570 --> 01:39:16,410 Persian Gulf. And in none of the countries I visited, was there a 1697 01:39:16,410 --> 01:39:20,250 single person who did not see first what a hoax our 2020 1698 01:39:20,250 --> 01:39:26,910 election was? And secondly, did not see that the Biden regime is 1699 01:39:26,910 --> 01:39:29,820 doing so badly, there's really a question whether they even are 1700 01:39:29,820 --> 01:39:33,180 on our side. But if you're doing so badly, you have to wonder is 1701 01:39:33,180 --> 01:39:36,030 it on purpose, like when you see things like Afghanistan, was it 1702 01:39:36,030 --> 01:39:39,090 on purpose, or should they really be that bad as to leave 1703 01:39:39,090 --> 01:39:44,220 $85 billion of advanced equipment? So yeah, we nobody 1704 01:39:44,220 --> 01:39:46,950 believes people really don't believe he's the legitimate 1705 01:39:46,950 --> 01:39:47,370 president. 1706 01:39:47,910 --> 01:39:51,570 How does a country like China view this? Is it a weakening 1707 01:39:51,570 --> 01:39:53,640 moment for our country? Well, I think 1708 01:39:53,640 --> 01:39:59,040 China has had Yeah, it's what I'm most concerned about with 1709 01:39:59,040 --> 01:40:01,650 China. So I'm quite concerned if we're going to survive. I think 1710 01:40:01,650 --> 01:40:04,620 we're being led through a military grade SIOP with 1711 01:40:04,620 --> 01:40:08,970 military precision. And ultimately, the chain of command 1712 01:40:09,090 --> 01:40:13,350 is at the deep in the shadows. It's China. And there's all 1713 01:40:13,350 --> 01:40:15,930 these things that we've been experiencing. That seems so 1714 01:40:15,930 --> 01:40:20,100 strange from the reaction of COVID, which wasn't driven by 1715 01:40:20,100 --> 01:40:22,890 science, the emphasis on vaccines, which wasn't driven by 1716 01:40:22,890 --> 01:40:27,450 science, the reaction to the Antifa, all this domestic 1717 01:40:27,480 --> 01:40:31,920 terrorism that gets answered to a crazy election in 2020, and 1718 01:40:31,920 --> 01:40:35,490 2022. And now this kind of stuff. This is all part of a 1719 01:40:35,490 --> 01:40:38,370 Maoist revolution. Maoist revolutions occur at every level 1720 01:40:38,370 --> 01:40:42,510 of society says they're cheating here. They're cheating here. If 1721 01:40:42,510 --> 01:40:45,240 they're cheating the election system, they're bringing charges 1722 01:40:45,240 --> 01:40:47,220 against anybody who says it. They're bringing charges against 1723 01:40:47,220 --> 01:40:48,480 politicians who do anything. 1724 01:40:49,470 --> 01:40:53,190 Adam Curry: Yeah, yeah, man would, is there a book we can go 1725 01:40:53,190 --> 01:40:55,890 and read about this Maoist revolution that wouldn't 1726 01:40:56,160 --> 01:40:57,780 John C Dvorak: know I guess we're gonna have to write one 1727 01:40:57,780 --> 01:40:59,220 ourselves. Let's go with part two. 1728 01:40:59,610 --> 01:41:02,040 Unknown: Any lawyer who picks up a pen to help they discover the 1729 01:41:02,040 --> 01:41:05,760 bar comes after them. So it's all level, it's the teachers at 1730 01:41:05,760 --> 01:41:09,900 the at your grade grade school. It's the simultaneous all levels 1731 01:41:09,900 --> 01:41:12,720 of society, it wants to completely throw the population 1732 01:41:13,050 --> 01:41:16,590 off their off their orientation. And then they basically it's 1733 01:41:16,590 --> 01:41:19,740 people, I think that they want to destroy the country in the 1734 01:41:20,040 --> 01:41:22,410 belief that they're going to create out of the clutter, 1735 01:41:22,410 --> 01:41:25,200 they're going to create a new system. And that system has 1736 01:41:25,200 --> 01:41:27,600 nothing to do doesn't resemble anything like this system we've 1737 01:41:27,630 --> 01:41:28,140 always had. 1738 01:41:29,160 --> 01:41:33,090 Adam Curry: So when after the Mao the Mao revolution and me 1739 01:41:33,090 --> 01:41:36,450 Did it work? It did right. And then he had them how long did he 1740 01:41:36,450 --> 01:41:38,220 have monitor? have control? 1741 01:41:39,270 --> 01:41:41,370 John C Dvorak: Well, he had, you know, did, he was actually a 1742 01:41:41,370 --> 01:41:46,680 counter revolution that when he did the, the great, was great 1743 01:41:46,680 --> 01:41:54,030 reset. It was great. It worked pretty much in the I mean, it 1744 01:41:54,060 --> 01:41:58,110 dissolved eventually. And then they end up throwing the book at 1745 01:41:58,710 --> 01:42:02,430 the White wife. Yeah. And but it was a it was very, but it was 1746 01:42:02,430 --> 01:42:06,210 very destructive. That's the problem with it. In fact, if it 1747 01:42:06,210 --> 01:42:09,870 wasn't for the fact that the Chiang Kai Shek and the boys 1748 01:42:10,110 --> 01:42:14,700 loaded up everything they could in massive railroad trains and 1749 01:42:14,700 --> 01:42:18,300 shipped it all to Taiwan, where it now resides in a large 1750 01:42:18,300 --> 01:42:20,460 museum. That's right in the middle of Taipei. 1751 01:42:21,450 --> 01:42:23,760 Adam Curry: Oh, how about it was the Great Leap Forward? Of 1752 01:42:23,760 --> 01:42:24,300 course, not the 1753 01:42:24,360 --> 01:42:28,680 John C Dvorak: Great Leap Forward. Just wrap up, Patrick 1754 01:42:28,680 --> 01:42:29,580 here, Patrick, 1755 01:42:29,580 --> 01:42:31,920 Unknown: specifically, when it comes to the Chinese Communist 1756 01:42:31,920 --> 01:42:35,850 Party. How are they viewing this right now? Are they seeing 1757 01:42:35,880 --> 01:42:37,500 weakness with the United States, 1758 01:42:37,830 --> 01:42:40,170 worse than others seeing opportunity? They're seeing 1759 01:42:40,170 --> 01:42:44,280 opportunity, they're never going to let Biden out. Before they 1760 01:42:44,280 --> 01:42:47,430 take advantage of everything they can take advantage. This is 1761 01:42:47,430 --> 01:42:51,120 a historic window of opportunity for them. So we're lucky if all 1762 01:42:51,120 --> 01:42:54,270 they do is they run the tables on us for the next 19 months. 1763 01:42:55,290 --> 01:42:59,580 We're lucky if that's all they do. I worry. You know I'm a and 1764 01:42:59,610 --> 01:43:03,360 the Epoch Times published many years ago, a wonderful important 1765 01:43:03,360 --> 01:43:05,850 leak out of China, the most important leak out of China 1766 01:43:05,850 --> 01:43:09,660 ever. The secret speech of the minister of defense, sure how to 1767 01:43:09,660 --> 01:43:13,560 yen. And it was a speech given in 2003, where the Ministry of 1768 01:43:13,560 --> 01:43:16,050 Defense explained how they were going to take down the United 1769 01:43:16,050 --> 01:43:20,460 States of America, starting with a bio weapon, destabilize Civil 1770 01:43:20,460 --> 01:43:24,720 War. Basically, we are within our Civil War, and then the 1771 01:43:24,870 --> 01:43:29,100 cartels and the UN being given carte blanche for three years, 1772 01:43:29,310 --> 01:43:32,580 we will be nothing but a host. And then we get colonized by the 1773 01:43:32,580 --> 01:43:35,940 Chinese government, the Chinese Communist Party. That may sound 1774 01:43:35,940 --> 01:43:39,000 crazy, but that's their stuff. That's their speech. That's a 1775 01:43:39,030 --> 01:43:43,860 book called unrestricted warfare by two famous colonels in China. 1776 01:43:44,040 --> 01:43:46,620 So that's their stuff. As crazy as that sounds. That's what 1777 01:43:46,620 --> 01:43:49,380 they're planning on doing to us someday.

It's kind of 1782 01:44:04,110 --> 01:44:06,540 you know, it's not a secret. They're public about it that 1783 01:44:06,540 --> 01:44:07,800 this is what they're doing over there. 1784 01:44:07,920 --> 01:44:10,830 Adam Curry: Wow. Yeah.

I'm 1877 01:49:38,940 --> 01:49:43,920 sorry, no muffins on Monday for Google, which was just a simple 1878 01:49:43,950 --> 01:49:46,380 I mean, a lot of people have done versions of a muffin. 1879 01:49:47,370 --> 01:49:49,800 Although I will say that now that I look at this, it does 1880 01:49:49,800 --> 01:49:51,960 look more like a cupcake than a muffin, but we'll let that 1881 01:49:51,960 --> 01:49:52,500 slide. 1882 01:49:53,790 --> 01:49:55,830 John C Dvorak: Let's see, especially with a lot of top 1883 01:49:56,160 --> 01:49:57,480 things to do with frosting. 1884 01:49:57,510 --> 01:49:59,940 Adam Curry: By the way, I got a note from one of our producers 1885 01:50:00,600 --> 01:50:03,150 And I thought it was, you know, we were wondering because this 1886 01:50:03,150 --> 01:50:07,980 was part of the story about Google clamping down on muffins 1887 01:50:08,190 --> 01:50:13,830 on Monday and staplers. And Bob says, you know, my first real 1888 01:50:13,830 --> 01:50:17,610 job in 1989 at a university, this is the content you don't 1889 01:50:17,610 --> 01:50:20,460 get if you skip over the donation segment, I shared a 1890 01:50:20,460 --> 01:50:24,960 communal office with my boss, she had so many staplers. This 1891 01:50:24,960 --> 01:50:29,310 is the point we were wondering why Google has so many staplers. 1892 01:50:29,310 --> 01:50:31,890 And now they cut back on the staplers and you could only get 1893 01:50:31,890 --> 01:50:35,760 the stapler from the central desk. What was the problem? So 1894 01:50:35,760 --> 01:50:39,870 Bob says she had so many staplers I finally realized it 1895 01:50:39,870 --> 01:50:43,530 was easier for her to order a new stapler because it comes 1896 01:50:43,530 --> 01:50:47,190 filled with staples, rather than figure out how to add staplers 1897 01:50:47,190 --> 01:50:50,490 to the old stapler. I think that's what's going on. 1898 01:50:51,750 --> 01:50:53,700 John C Dvorak: You're saying that they're so stupid at 1899 01:50:53,700 --> 01:50:56,910 Google. They don't know how to put staples into a stapler? 1900 01:50:56,940 --> 01:50:59,940 Adam Curry: I think they most of them can tell analog time. 1901 01:51:01,320 --> 01:51:03,030 John C Dvorak: That's probably true. And they probably can't 1902 01:51:03,030 --> 01:51:05,280 use a kit a handheld can opener. 1903 01:51:06,179 --> 01:51:10,889 Adam Curry: Exactly, exactly. I think it's very possible like 1904 01:51:11,219 --> 01:51:13,169 this. I'm gonna have to figure out how to put staples in this 1905 01:51:13,169 --> 01:51:16,169 thing. Just something go get a new one from the supply room. I 1906 01:51:16,199 --> 01:51:20,399 completely believe the Googlers are that way. And it was rampant 1907 01:51:20,429 --> 01:51:22,679 stapler abuse statement. Good title. 1908 01:51:24,960 --> 01:51:26,580 John C Dvorak: It's actually a believable story. 1909 01:51:26,610 --> 01:51:29,430 Adam Curry: Yeah. That's our boots on the ground. Man. People 1910 01:51:29,430 --> 01:51:33,630 know what's going on. So let's see. What else would we look at? 1911 01:51:34,260 --> 01:51:37,740 in the art world from our artists? For the previous 1912 01:51:37,740 --> 01:51:38,850 episode we had 1913 01:51:38,850 --> 01:51:41,070 John C Dvorak: really wasn't that much that was knocking 1914 01:51:41,310 --> 01:51:42,300 over. We kind 1915 01:51:42,300 --> 01:51:44,520 Adam Curry: of like tonton. Neil's cut back but the muffin 1916 01:51:44,520 --> 01:51:47,070 didn't look like a muffin. It looked like a house. And I No 1917 01:51:47,070 --> 01:51:51,420 offense. We both kind of like the banana. Oh, communist 1918 01:51:51,420 --> 01:51:54,570 Republic from capitalist agenda. That was I would say that was a 1919 01:51:54,690 --> 01:51:58,710 runner up for sure. With that with a fist coming out of the 1920 01:51:58,710 --> 01:51:59,250 banana, yeah, 1921 01:51:59,250 --> 01:52:00,750 John C Dvorak: the fist coming out of the banana. Yeah. 1922 01:52:01,410 --> 01:52:02,130 Unknown: That was pretty Yeah, 1923 01:52:02,190 --> 01:52:04,740 John C Dvorak: it was okay. It was. I liked it. But it wasn't. 1924 01:52:05,280 --> 01:52:08,220 I mean, I already probably gone with the wet using a newsletter, 1925 01:52:08,220 --> 01:52:12,990 which was Darren O'Neill's no agenda now it's fiber. Added 1926 01:52:12,990 --> 01:52:15,240 before I got to fist and that 1927 01:52:15,240 --> 01:52:17,310 Adam Curry: was the Yeah, you did use that the newsletter. 1928 01:52:17,400 --> 01:52:21,630 Yeah, that's simple, simple piece. What else should we have 1929 01:52:22,260 --> 01:52:24,900 John C Dvorak: done? There's a lot of take off the hand with 1930 01:52:24,900 --> 01:52:26,730 too many too many fingers. Yeah, 1931 01:52:26,760 --> 01:52:29,430 Adam Curry: I was okay. And then the dose dog was wrong. It's 1932 01:52:29,430 --> 01:52:33,420 just triggering just triggering. Stop it. The tantan yielded. 1933 01:52:34,170 --> 01:52:36,630 John C Dvorak: By the way the dose dog has gone on my Twitter 1934 01:52:36,630 --> 01:52:37,710 feed now. Oh, goodness. 1935 01:52:37,710 --> 01:52:40,290 Adam Curry: Let me check. Let me see if the dose dog is gone. 1936 01:52:40,320 --> 01:52:43,470 Yeah, because we got to get the Fed now of puppy. I wanted the 1937 01:52:43,470 --> 01:52:46,200 one on what the Fed and I'm telling you I'm feeling the Fed 1938 01:52:46,200 --> 01:52:49,860 now thing is going to be is going to be Elance first foray. 1939 01:52:50,400 --> 01:52:51,150 I'm calling it 1940 01:52:52,200 --> 01:52:54,570 John C Dvorak: there's a nice sacrilegious piece that's coming 1941 01:52:54,570 --> 01:52:54,900 up. 1942 01:52:56,280 --> 01:52:58,020 Adam Curry: Oh, there's no second best that one. 1943 01:52:58,980 --> 01:53:05,520 John C Dvorak: No, go back by Francisco Scaramanga. That's a 1944 01:53:05,520 --> 01:53:11,160 really that's a real real that's Yeah, it's funny, but it's very, 1945 01:53:12,030 --> 01:53:12,960 very bad. 1946 01:53:12,990 --> 01:53:18,120 Adam Curry: Yeah. Yeah, that's interesting. So the way it works 1947 01:53:18,120 --> 01:53:21,600 is after the show we take a look at the artists who obviously 1948 01:53:21,600 --> 01:53:25,830 have been listening live and then we we choose a piece we you 1949 01:53:25,830 --> 01:53:28,800 know, we try to have three separate elements the opening 1950 01:53:28,800 --> 01:53:33,210 quote, the title and the end the art all different, but somehow 1951 01:53:33,210 --> 01:53:35,670 related, never the same. Sometimes they are it does 1952 01:53:35,670 --> 01:53:39,480 happen it happened recently, in fact, and we're just tickled 1953 01:53:39,480 --> 01:53:43,350 pink with with all the love and attention that artists put into 1954 01:53:43,440 --> 01:53:46,740 it. We feel it really helps and I think it's proven that it 1955 01:53:46,740 --> 01:53:49,950 helps with people drawing attention to the show. It 1956 01:53:49,950 --> 01:53:53,910 certainly draws it well not on Twitter anymore because no one 1957 01:53:53,910 --> 01:53:57,690 sees me but you know, it's hot on the on the nostrils the 1958 01:53:57,690 --> 01:53:59,310 nostril people love our art, so 1959 01:53:59,310 --> 01:54:00,510 John C Dvorak: I'll get five of them. 1960 01:54:01,470 --> 01:54:04,200 Adam Curry: I'll keep Oh yeah, it's a little more than five. 1961 01:54:04,620 --> 01:54:09,870 I'll keep posting there. And but of course Macedon that's where 1962 01:54:09,900 --> 01:54:13,920 it really comes to life and we appreciate that so much and 1963 01:54:13,920 --> 01:54:16,440 Nikko Simon thank you so much for for your courage and for 1964 01:54:16,440 --> 01:54:21,870 producing a great piece of art for episode 5015 44 along with 1965 01:54:21,870 --> 01:54:23,940 our value for value model, because that's what it is. I 1966 01:54:23,940 --> 01:54:26,010 mean, you send us a boots on the ground report. I find the 1967 01:54:26,010 --> 01:54:29,490 stapler boots on the ground very that's very valuable. So we 1968 01:54:29,490 --> 01:54:33,300 appreciate that Bob, you know, people can do art. Many people 1969 01:54:33,300 --> 01:54:36,360 do things like our our knights or Daniel there who does the no 1970 01:54:36,360 --> 01:54:39,930 agenda meetup website. There's so much as being done void zero. 1971 01:54:40,260 --> 01:54:43,650 I mean, just people doing stuff everywhere to make the show 1972 01:54:43,650 --> 01:54:44,700 work. Yes. 1973 01:54:45,210 --> 01:54:47,760 John C Dvorak: I was gonna say now that I'm thinking I'm still 1974 01:54:48,000 --> 01:54:53,880 in still stuck in my brain rattling around. That has to be 1975 01:54:53,880 --> 01:54:58,440 correct. That the reason that they're they have the stapler in 1976 01:54:58,440 --> 01:55:02,520 this memo is because As people are actually ordering new staple 1977 01:55:02,610 --> 01:55:06,540 staplers maybe they actually think that you have to order a 1978 01:55:06,540 --> 01:55:10,350 new stapler for this fantastic purpose of you know, not 1979 01:55:10,380 --> 01:55:13,680 realizing that you can replace the staples that has to be it. 1980 01:55:14,940 --> 01:55:17,280 Adam Curry: That's why I put it in my in my notes and like this, 1981 01:55:17,310 --> 01:55:19,740 this is clearly what's going on 1982 01:55:19,740 --> 01:55:23,400 John C Dvorak: believable. But there's no other explanation. 1983 01:55:24,089 --> 01:55:27,389 Adam Curry: Is it really unbelievable? Yeah, I think it's 1984 01:55:27,450 --> 01:55:29,130 John C Dvorak: well to me, I mean, I didn't know some of 1985 01:55:29,130 --> 01:55:31,530 these people. I think they didn't know that dumb. 1986 01:55:32,010 --> 01:55:35,070 Adam Curry: We should add this to the test, you know, okay. See 1987 01:55:35,070 --> 01:55:38,250 if, if you have a Zoomer who could make a phone call on a 1988 01:55:38,250 --> 01:55:41,970 rotary phone and see if they can tell time on an analog clock and 1989 01:55:41,970 --> 01:55:49,260 see if they can replenish the stapler. This is like the Turing 1990 01:55:49,260 --> 01:55:50,370 test for more data 1991 01:55:50,370 --> 01:55:53,100 John C Dvorak: to be even more than to know so those are three 1992 01:55:53,100 --> 01:55:56,520 I think we can get it to five or six. I would like to solicit the 1993 01:55:56,520 --> 01:56:00,900 audience. To dream up more millennial questions to see more 1994 01:56:00,900 --> 01:56:04,410 millennials I would say Zoomers, let's take Zoomers to disqualify 1995 01:56:04,410 --> 01:56:07,170 Zoomers for good take taking a position in the company. 1996 01:56:09,000 --> 01:56:12,000 Adam Curry: So, pronouns is you're immediately out Oh, no 1997 01:56:12,000 --> 01:56:12,720 John C Dvorak: pronouns, you're 1998 01:56:12,720 --> 01:56:15,060 Adam Curry: out, you're out with pronouns. But if you can't 1999 01:56:15,060 --> 01:56:17,610 replenish the stapler, you cannot work in the curry Devorah 2000 01:56:17,610 --> 01:56:20,610 Consulting Group. This is our new hiring practice. Yes, we 2001 01:56:20,610 --> 01:56:23,520 discriminate. And we're proud of it.

And unlike the phonies in Hollywood, we will gladly vouch 2265 02:13:33,180 --> 02:13:36,510 for you if anyone questions the validity of these because they 2266 02:13:36,510 --> 02:13:39,210 are just as good as anything in Hollywood if you'd like to 2267 02:13:39,210 --> 02:13:41,400 become a producer of the no agenda show go here to vo 2268 02:13:41,400 --> 02:13:48,660 red.org/and A thank you again for supporting episode 1545 2269 02:13:49,020 --> 02:13:53,400 Unknown: Our formula is this we go out we hit people in the 2270 02:13:53,400 --> 02:13:53,700 mouth 2271 02:14:11,040 --> 02:14:12,960 Adam Curry: feel like we've done so much already? Would you like 2272 02:14:12,960 --> 02:14:19,710 to we can do a couple things here. There is some some latent 2273 02:14:19,740 --> 02:14:22,650 COVID stuff that seems to be popping up and is not a skip 2274 02:14:22,650 --> 02:14:28,770 that that's annoying. Oh, yes, I have a climate change clip which 2275 02:14:28,770 --> 02:14:33,360 I think is necessary to at least play. Because just when you 2276 02:14:33,360 --> 02:14:36,840 thought it couldn't couldn't get any crazier. It could. It's one 2277 02:14:36,840 --> 02:14:37,290 of the most 2278 02:14:37,290 --> 02:14:41,940 Unknown: exciting parts of the game. The crack of the bat the 2279 02:14:41,940 --> 02:14:46,320 moment you know, it's gone. It's gone. And this morning a new 2280 02:14:46,320 --> 02:14:49,740 study suggests one reason why sluggers may be hitting it out 2281 02:14:49,740 --> 02:14:54,510 of the park a little bit more often. There is a pretty simple 2282 02:14:54,510 --> 02:14:57,510 physical mechanism going on here, which is that when 2283 02:14:57,510 --> 02:15:01,020 temperatures rise, the air gets less dense. meaning that there 2284 02:15:01,020 --> 02:15:04,020 is less air resistance for balls flying through the air. This 2285 02:15:04,020 --> 02:15:07,800 study led by Dartmouth College scientists analyzed 100,000 2286 02:15:07,800 --> 02:15:12,390 Major League games and more than 200,000 balls hit in play their 2287 02:15:12,390 --> 02:15:15,900 findings, games played in warmer temperatures can lead to more 2288 02:15:15,900 --> 02:15:19,260 homeruns. Because of a reduction in ballpark air density, 2289 02:15:19,290 --> 02:15:19,980 we were able to 2290 02:15:20,010 --> 02:15:22,950 isolate the role of climate change by using what we call 2291 02:15:22,950 --> 02:15:24,390 climate model simulations. 2292 02:15:24,420 --> 02:15:27,480 Christopher Callahan, the lead author on the study says since 2293 02:15:27,480 --> 02:15:31,500 2010, more than 500 home runs can be attributed to global 2294 02:15:31,500 --> 02:15:34,950 warming. Over the last 40 years. The National Oceanic and 2295 02:15:34,950 --> 02:15:38,610 Atmospheric Administration says the average US temperature in 2296 02:15:38,610 --> 02:15:41,640 June July and August has increased by more than two 2297 02:15:41,640 --> 02:15:45,000 degrees. Scientists saying outdoor stadiums like Wrigley 2298 02:15:45,000 --> 02:15:48,330 Field in Chicago, which hosts a lot of day games will likely see 2299 02:15:48,330 --> 02:15:51,840 larger increases in home run rates over in close stadiums. 2300 02:15:52,260 --> 02:15:55,770 home runs have seen previous surges, like in 2019, when the 2301 02:15:55,770 --> 02:15:59,460 MLB even changed the size of its baseball's to decrease the 2302 02:15:59,460 --> 02:16:03,930 distance of travel. ESPN buster only says whatever the reason, 2303 02:16:04,140 --> 02:16:07,560 an increase in homeruns is good for the game. We saw at the end 2304 02:16:07,560 --> 02:16:10,440 of last year, when Aaron judge was chasing the American League 2305 02:16:10,440 --> 02:16:14,430 record for home runs. Everybody in baseball was watching that 2306 02:16:14,430 --> 02:16:16,140 fans were excited by that. 2307 02:16:17,280 --> 02:16:19,440 Adam Curry: Was there a problem with baseball ticket sales or 2308 02:16:19,440 --> 02:16:24,060 something? Does it Aaron ABC the network? Or you know what, what 2309 02:16:24,060 --> 02:16:25,200 is this bull crap? 2310 02:16:26,880 --> 02:16:29,310 John C Dvorak: Well, first of all, we have to realize that 2311 02:16:29,310 --> 02:16:32,700 they were paid to do this study by someone. Yeah. So there was 2312 02:16:32,700 --> 02:16:37,890 there's still money in global warming. Yep. What I think 2313 02:16:37,890 --> 02:16:40,440 baseball is up a little bit because they've changed a bunch 2314 02:16:40,440 --> 02:16:42,720 of rules and they're making the game faster. Now they have a 2315 02:16:42,720 --> 02:16:47,310 pitch clock. Oh, yes. Oh, it's in so many seconds. And again, 2316 02:16:47,310 --> 02:16:50,220 the batter can't keep getting in and out of the batter's box and 2317 02:16:50,220 --> 02:16:54,480 adjusting himself. And which, yeah, 2318 02:16:54,510 --> 02:16:57,420 Adam Curry: major, major league baseball on ABC, I believe. 2319 02:16:58,530 --> 02:17:01,080 John C Dvorak: So that would be that would be probably. 2320 02:17:01,380 --> 02:17:02,700 Adam Curry: How's that? How's that? 2321 02:17:03,240 --> 02:17:04,710 John C Dvorak: How's that? Yeah, everything's our house, 2322 02:17:04,710 --> 02:17:07,710 especially ABC owned by Disney. They did more of these than 2323 02:17:07,710 --> 02:17:12,030 anyone else. So I have a couple of clips that might be good in 2324 02:17:12,030 --> 02:17:15,810 this spot. Okay. First of all, since you talked about global 2325 02:17:15,810 --> 02:17:18,960 warming, let's go to the Brazil deforestation clip. 2326 02:17:19,020 --> 02:17:22,380 Unknown: Oh, no deforestation was up again last month in 2327 02:17:22,380 --> 02:17:25,080 Brazil's Amazon marches rate of destruction in the world's 2328 02:17:25,080 --> 02:17:29,100 largest rainforest road 14% over last year's figures. That's 2329 02:17:29,100 --> 02:17:31,980 despite promises by the new leftist government to crack down 2330 02:17:31,980 --> 02:17:34,440 on illegal activity and Paris Carrie Kahn reports. 2331 02:17:34,469 --> 02:17:37,769 According to Brazil Space Research Agency known as 2332 02:17:37,769 --> 02:17:42,089 inpaint, more than 130 square miles of the Amazon within the 2333 02:17:42,089 --> 02:17:45,449 country were cleared of trees and vegetation in March. 2334 02:17:45,839 --> 02:17:49,289 President Luis Inacio Lula DE SILVA has launched enforcement 2335 02:17:49,289 --> 02:17:53,639 crackdown since taking office January 1, pledging to reverse 2336 02:17:53,639 --> 02:17:57,119 years of permissive illegal clear cutting and mining by his 2337 02:17:57,119 --> 02:18:01,229 predecessor, former far right President Jair Bolsonaro slashed 2338 02:18:01,229 --> 02:18:04,889 environmental protections and prosecutions. Brazil's space 2339 02:18:04,889 --> 02:18:08,939 agency surveys the Amazon from August to July to avoid cloud 2340 02:18:08,939 --> 02:18:12,059 cover during the rainy season. In the first eight months of 2341 02:18:12,059 --> 02:18:16,259 that reporting period, deforestation rose nearly 40% 2342 02:18:16,859 --> 02:18:17,939 The previous year. 2343 02:18:19,380 --> 02:18:22,200 Adam Curry: I gotta go back to the baseball story. So what will 2344 02:18:22,200 --> 02:18:25,710 happen to golf? Do they have to now turn all par threes to par 2345 02:18:25,710 --> 02:18:27,720 fours because people are gonna be hitting 2346 02:18:28,410 --> 02:18:33,120 John C Dvorak: around? No. Yeah, because of golf balls gonna go 2347 02:18:33,120 --> 02:18:35,100 further. So you have to you have to get a 2348 02:18:35,100 --> 02:18:37,230 Adam Curry: par four. Oh, no problem. Part two. 2349 02:18:37,229 --> 02:18:39,989 John C Dvorak: I'm January arrow. Hello. There has to be a 2350 02:18:39,989 --> 02:18:40,979 par six. 2351 02:18:40,979 --> 02:18:43,049 Adam Curry: Don't talk to Adam about sports ball. 2352 02:18:44,160 --> 02:18:47,010 John C Dvorak: sports ball. Well, I was gonna point out that 2353 02:18:47,010 --> 02:18:50,100 this Silva's a big talker, the big left as he goes in there and 2354 02:18:50,100 --> 02:18:55,290 they made this thing gets worse but Okay. About Bowling, 2355 02:18:56,639 --> 02:19:02,249 Adam Curry: bowling. But how about actually, climate change 2356 02:19:02,249 --> 02:19:06,599 helps because I'll be using less gas to go as fast in my car. I 2357 02:19:06,599 --> 02:19:08,519 mean, it'll actually be good. 2358 02:19:09,240 --> 02:19:11,040 Unknown: Climate change that story? You're 2359 02:19:11,040 --> 02:19:13,590 Adam Curry: absolutely right. Climate change is good for 2360 02:19:13,590 --> 02:19:16,890 stopping climate change. So it should actually keep it in 2361 02:19:16,890 --> 02:19:18,990 check. What else can we think of? 2362 02:19:19,469 --> 02:19:20,729 John C Dvorak: It's self limiting. 2363 02:19:21,389 --> 02:19:25,589 Adam Curry: This is so so Bogota, HIV. Bug it 2364 02:19:26,639 --> 02:19:30,629 John C Dvorak: really is. So they got paid. This is the 2365 02:19:30,629 --> 02:19:31,259 moneymaker. 2366 02:19:31,290 --> 02:19:33,750 Adam Curry: We're stupid. We're dumb. We're the dummies here. 2367 02:19:33,780 --> 02:19:36,870 We're the dummies working for podcast peanuts. 2368 02:19:37,139 --> 02:19:39,629 John C Dvorak: We're podcasters and then we can do it but we're 2369 02:19:39,629 --> 02:19:40,229 doomed. 2370 02:19:41,520 --> 02:19:44,160 Adam Curry: We're doomed. We can't make money writing about 2371 02:19:44,190 --> 02:19:47,820 the ball flying further sports ball. I would be great at 2372 02:19:47,820 --> 02:19:50,310 writing about sports ball we're not we'd be a great T 2373 02:19:51,180 --> 02:19:53,280 John C Dvorak: be the guy who's to say we definitely be 2374 02:19:54,240 --> 02:19:55,710 Adam Curry: more climate change here. Here's 2375 02:19:55,710 --> 02:19:57,810 John C Dvorak: the no I got other stuff too. How about this? 2376 02:19:59,070 --> 02:20:02,160 Oh, here's a good one out The NHS striker How about this for 2377 02:20:02,160 --> 02:20:04,050 your socialized medicine, 2378 02:20:04,170 --> 02:20:06,060 Unknown: the UK National Health Service will cancel 2379 02:20:06,060 --> 02:20:08,610 up to a quarter of a million appointments and surgeries next 2380 02:20:08,610 --> 02:20:11,340 week with almost half of all British doctors walking out to 2381 02:20:11,340 --> 02:20:14,310 protest low pay. The body representing British hospitals 2382 02:20:14,310 --> 02:20:17,190 and healthcare systems said patient care quote rests on a 2383 02:20:17,190 --> 02:20:20,040 knife edge because IT staff writers will be stretched by 10s 2384 02:20:20,040 --> 02:20:23,250 of 1000s of absences over 96 hours combined with a long 2385 02:20:23,250 --> 02:20:26,010 holiday weekend over Easter and other senior doctors taking 2386 02:20:26,010 --> 02:20:28,890 planned leave the impact on the country's patient population 2387 02:20:28,890 --> 02:20:32,190 could be unprecedented health bosses say the country's junior 2388 02:20:32,190 --> 02:20:34,680 doctors are asking the government for a 35% pay 2389 02:20:34,680 --> 02:20:37,470 increase to make up for what they call 15 years of eroding 2390 02:20:37,470 --> 02:20:40,500 wages. The government's call this quote unreasonable This is 2391 02:20:40,500 --> 02:20:43,050 the second such strike in less than a month. There's 2392 02:20:43,050 --> 02:20:46,530 Adam Curry: a lot going on in the UK actually. The NHS also 2393 02:20:46,530 --> 02:20:50,850 has reported a severe dentist shortage leak quote leaving 2394 02:20:50,850 --> 02:20:54,060 patients stranded like that's the last thing they needed to 2395 02:20:54,060 --> 02:21:00,180 cut back on. Rail chaos rail chaos in the UK. Yeah, but 2396 02:21:00,930 --> 02:21:04,440 that's also climate change stuff listen to this. Households could 2397 02:21:04,440 --> 02:21:08,880 possibly be rationed on water and charge if they go over limit 2398 02:21:09,270 --> 02:21:10,410 power showers. 2399 02:21:10,740 --> 02:21:12,360 John C Dvorak: I understand they're gonna ration them on 2400 02:21:12,390 --> 02:21:12,930 air. 2401 02:21:13,740 --> 02:21:16,590 Adam Curry: Power showers and dual flush toilets will be 2402 02:21:16,590 --> 02:21:22,200 banned. Possibly Germany, Germany, home of the of the 2403 02:21:22,200 --> 02:21:27,660 bratwurst and crowd meat consumption drops to record low 2404 02:21:27,810 --> 02:21:33,630 PLANT BASE sales record high. Germany Germany's who says the 2405 02:21:33,630 --> 02:21:39,270 vegan business magazine meanwhile, Italy, they have a 2406 02:21:39,270 --> 02:21:43,860 bill on the table to ban lab cultured meat. Good on you good 2407 02:21:43,860 --> 02:21:47,160 for them. And yeah, we'll see how long that lasts not long. 2408 02:21:47,190 --> 02:21:51,210 And this Easter activist and East Bristol were protesting in 2409 02:21:51,210 --> 02:21:55,380 the meat aisle. Actually, this was pretty funny. I'm sorry to 2410 02:21:55,380 --> 02:21:57,690 go back to climate change. But I forgot I had a whole bunch of 2411 02:21:57,690 --> 02:22:03,480 stuff. One of our producers, he's a shareholder of UPS. And, 2412 02:22:04,320 --> 02:22:08,280 and just as he owns like 10 shares, he owns it to get to be 2413 02:22:08,280 --> 02:22:13,920 able to vote. And so he sends me the ballot of the voting you 2414 02:22:13,920 --> 02:22:16,230 know what, what passed and what didn't. So you know, there's all 2415 02:22:16,230 --> 02:22:20,790 the nominees for the directors, you know, everyone's 4444 And 2416 02:22:21,000 --> 02:22:24,660 then they ratify the ratify the appointment of Deloitte and 2417 02:22:24,660 --> 02:22:27,750 Touche as their independent registered public accountant and 2418 02:22:27,750 --> 02:22:33,090 then listen to this. Reduced so these are all against they 2419 02:22:33,090 --> 02:22:36,990 voted. So the shareholders of UPS voted against the following 2420 02:22:37,560 --> 02:22:41,250 to reduce the voting power of UPS Class A stock from 10 votes 2421 02:22:41,250 --> 02:22:45,270 per share to one vote per share. Of course they did, but then to 2422 02:22:45,270 --> 02:22:49,020 adopt independently verified science based greenhouse gas 2423 02:22:49,020 --> 02:22:53,730 emission reduction targets. No, they voted against that. To 2424 02:22:53,730 --> 02:22:56,970 prepare a report on integrating greenhouse gas emission 2425 02:22:56,970 --> 02:23:00,660 reduction targets into executive compensation. No, we voted 2426 02:23:00,660 --> 02:23:04,350 against that, to prepare a report on addressing the impact 2427 02:23:04,350 --> 02:23:07,770 of UPSs climate change strategy on relevant stakeholders 2428 02:23:07,770 --> 02:23:12,270 consistent with the just transition guidelines, whatever 2429 02:23:12,270 --> 02:23:16,380 that is, nope, voted against that, to prepare a report on the 2430 02:23:16,380 --> 02:23:19,680 risks or costs caused by state policies restricting 2431 02:23:19,680 --> 02:23:24,270 reproductive rights rights. Now, UPS will have none of that to 2432 02:23:24,270 --> 02:23:29,010 prepare a report on the impact of UPS D and I policies on civil 2433 02:23:29,010 --> 02:23:33,000 rights, non discrimination and returns to merit and the company 2434 02:23:33,000 --> 02:23:36,120 business. No, no, we're not going to do a report on that 2435 02:23:36,360 --> 02:23:39,690 entry report and repair prepare an annual report on the 2436 02:23:39,690 --> 02:23:42,750 effectiveness a UPS is diversity, equity and inclusion 2437 02:23:42,750 --> 02:23:46,710 efforts. No, we're definitely not going to have that. So these 2438 02:23:46,710 --> 02:23:52,230 people fail on all counts of their ESG score, I would say big 2439 02:23:52,230 --> 02:23:56,400 fail. But meanwhile, on the other hand, and this is why it's 2440 02:23:56,400 --> 02:24:02,520 so coincidental. We have the United States Postal Service. I 2441 02:24:02,520 --> 02:24:06,180 keep getting email after email from mail carriers about you 2442 02:24:06,180 --> 02:24:09,480 know, this bull crap they're doing. And I'll just and I put 2443 02:24:09,480 --> 02:24:12,240 this this particular producers home note except for any 2444 02:24:12,240 --> 02:24:15,630 identifying information, so you can read it, and just see how 2445 02:24:15,720 --> 02:24:18,690 how they're screwing the mail carriers, how they're making it 2446 02:24:18,690 --> 02:24:22,860 possible for them to even have a life working. And here's the 2447 02:24:22,860 --> 02:24:25,920 conclusion. It seems that the post office is indeed being 2448 02:24:25,920 --> 02:24:29,550 dismantled from the inside. I feel they want an Amazon like 2449 02:24:29,550 --> 02:24:33,300 service, no stable long time careers recording retirement 2450 02:24:33,300 --> 02:24:36,600 funds, tsps good health insurance, but rather, people 2451 02:24:36,600 --> 02:24:39,540 that come and go, I feel like they are keeping things alive 2452 02:24:39,540 --> 02:24:42,540 long enough to get through the next Malin presidential election 2453 02:24:42,540 --> 02:24:45,990 before pulling the pin altogether. And of course, just 2454 02:24:45,990 --> 02:24:50,490 like every other national mail service, I think in the world to 2455 02:24:50,490 --> 02:24:54,780 have, you know, UPS or FedEx or someone come in and take over 2456 02:24:54,780 --> 02:24:57,600 because it's not working. It's not efficient. It's being 2457 02:24:57,600 --> 02:25:02,760 destroyed. It's being destroyed from the end. inside that makes 2458 02:25:02,760 --> 02:25:03,660 total sense to me 2459 02:25:06,630 --> 02:25:09,990 John C Dvorak: Well, something in there that he said is kind of 2460 02:25:10,860 --> 02:25:12,510 they may think twice if the 2461 02:25:12,540 --> 02:25:15,690 Adam Curry: rocker mail in ballots. Yep. Interesting, isn't 2462 02:25:15,690 --> 02:25:21,630 it? Yep. Because you know, if I were them I would sabotage that. 2463 02:25:22,440 --> 02:25:25,560 I'm not saying you should but if you're angry enough, you know 2464 02:25:25,590 --> 02:25:28,560 we're just not gonna do any ballots. You know, we got no to 2465 02:25:28,560 --> 02:25:32,220 Oh, I'm sorry. I had to go home wasn't feeling well, you screw 2466 02:25:32,220 --> 02:25:35,280 me anyway. So just left them over there by the side of the 2467 02:25:35,280 --> 02:25:41,070 road. They could find themselves under pray. And actually I 2468 02:25:41,070 --> 02:25:44,880 should read his final, final note here. On a positive note, 2469 02:25:45,000 --> 02:25:51,000 many of us listen religiously to no agenda. We have this ability 2470 02:25:51,000 --> 02:25:53,850 while on the street to listen to you and many other podcasts stay 2471 02:25:53,850 --> 02:25:56,820 well informed and stand against the COVID Tear and eat together 2472 02:25:56,820 --> 02:25:59,760 we encourage each other and hit our co workers in the mouth 2473 02:25:59,790 --> 02:26:04,140 unabashedly while casing well casing every morning. It must 2474 02:26:04,140 --> 02:26:06,930 have been dystopian for people during lockdown living in 2475 02:26:06,930 --> 02:26:10,380 dimension be just look out their window and see one of us 2476 02:26:10,380 --> 02:26:13,440 casually delivering mail and soaking up that sweet sweet 2477 02:26:13,440 --> 02:26:17,100 vitamin D. That's right, of course, man. We know mail 2478 02:26:17,100 --> 02:26:20,430 carriers are big no agenda fans and big podcast listeners in 2479 02:26:20,430 --> 02:26:20,880 general. 2480 02:26:21,090 --> 02:26:23,700 John C Dvorak: Yes, someday can do. Yeah, I have to comment on 2481 02:26:23,700 --> 02:26:28,380 something you just played. Devoted no against the 2482 02:26:28,380 --> 02:26:32,130 guidelines for a just transition. Oh, thank you. You 2483 02:26:32,130 --> 02:26:36,030 look that up. What is that? Well, guidelines for a just 2484 02:26:36,030 --> 02:26:38,850 transition towards environmentally sustainable 2485 02:26:38,880 --> 02:26:44,010 economies and societies for all. This comes from the 2486 02:26:44,010 --> 02:26:47,520 International Labor Organization. Of course it does. 2487 02:26:47,910 --> 02:26:51,600 Well, who's the International Labor Organization? Maoist 2488 02:26:51,600 --> 02:26:55,230 commies? The International Labor Organization, according to 2489 02:26:55,230 --> 02:27:02,040 Wikipedia, is the United Nations agencies agency whose mandate is 2490 02:27:02,040 --> 02:27:08,340 to advance social and economic justice? By setting 2491 02:27:08,370 --> 02:27:13,530 international labor standards founded in 1919, under the 2492 02:27:13,530 --> 02:27:15,000 League of Nations, 2493 02:27:15,570 --> 02:27:16,770 Adam Curry: this is Oh gee, 2494 02:27:17,490 --> 02:27:20,190 John C Dvorak: is it original? Yeah, this is the old crap is 2495 02:27:20,190 --> 02:27:25,950 the first and oldest specialized agency of the UN. Wow. This book 2496 02:27:25,980 --> 02:27:28,320 crap is what it is. Whoever heard it this 2497 02:27:33,300 --> 02:27:36,510 Adam Curry: bull crap mom. Bull crap. It's part of the 2498 02:27:36,510 --> 02:27:38,010 Sustainable Development voice. 2499 02:27:38,040 --> 02:27:42,930 John C Dvorak: It won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1969. Somehow Oh, 2500 02:27:42,930 --> 02:27:47,910 great. Groovy. Yeah, here it is. It received a Nobel Peace Prize 2501 02:27:47,910 --> 02:27:52,170 for improving fraternity and peace among nations pursuing 2502 02:27:52,170 --> 02:27:56,670 decent work and just I don't see any evidence of this. There's 2503 02:27:56,670 --> 02:27:59,490 still people working for 10 cents an hour here and there. 2504 02:28:00,240 --> 02:28:05,400 Really? Yeah. Really, in America? No, not in America. 2505 02:28:05,430 --> 02:28:07,710 This is an international group not American. 2506 02:28:07,740 --> 02:28:09,720 Adam Curry: So what is the International Group? why don't 2507 02:28:09,750 --> 02:28:13,020 why they're trying to force our companies into doing stuff 2508 02:28:13,770 --> 02:28:16,710 John C Dvorak: because they can Oh, there you go. Sounds good. 2509 02:28:17,490 --> 02:28:20,280 Luckily, we have companies that have the no vote. 2510 02:28:20,610 --> 02:28:24,570 Adam Curry: Yeah. I thought what this is, I thought this is a 2511 02:28:24,570 --> 02:28:28,470 very funny clip. Out of desperation, what else can we 2512 02:28:28,470 --> 02:28:33,750 do? The pro publica decided time to take down Supreme Court 2513 02:28:33,750 --> 02:28:35,850 Justice Clarence Thomas, we can do it. Yeah, I 2514 02:28:35,850 --> 02:28:37,860 John C Dvorak: have a Clarence Thomas clipped to you. I 2515 02:28:37,860 --> 02:28:41,370 Adam Curry: want to hear so the idea here is, of course he's a 2516 02:28:41,370 --> 02:28:44,880 maga Republican, his wife as you know, she practically led the 2517 02:28:44,880 --> 02:28:48,990 insurrection. And she's quite Yes, her fault and she's white. 2518 02:28:48,990 --> 02:28:51,780 It's all wrong. Everything's wrong with this man. He's wrong. 2519 02:28:52,260 --> 02:28:54,600 John C Dvorak: Well, this is from an TD This is Justice 2520 02:28:54,600 --> 02:28:56,070 Thomas BS. 2521 02:28:56,910 --> 02:29:00,660 Unknown: Justice Clarence Thomas is addressing criticisms that he 2522 02:29:00,660 --> 02:29:05,010 failed to disclose luxury trips he took with a billionaire. This 2523 02:29:05,010 --> 02:29:08,130 stems from a report yesterday from investigative journalism 2524 02:29:08,130 --> 02:29:12,330 group ProPublica. Their report catalogues various trips that 2525 02:29:12,330 --> 02:29:16,080 Tom has accepted from Republican megadonor and businessman Harlem 2526 02:29:16,080 --> 02:29:19,740 crowd. That report says that for more than two decades, Thomas 2527 02:29:19,740 --> 02:29:23,700 has gone on luxury trips aboard crows yacht and private jet and 2528 02:29:23,700 --> 02:29:27,690 vacation that Crozet private resorts. ProPublica alleges that 2529 02:29:27,690 --> 02:29:31,320 the Justice failed to report the trips on financial disclosure 2530 02:29:31,320 --> 02:29:35,130 forms. In a rare statement sent via the Supreme Court's public 2531 02:29:35,130 --> 02:29:38,970 information office, Thomas said that the trips he took with CRO 2532 02:29:39,180 --> 02:29:43,380 were personal hospitality from close personal friends, and that 2533 02:29:43,380 --> 02:29:47,160 he didn't disclose them at the time because he was advised that 2534 02:29:47,160 --> 02:29:51,840 he didn't have to report such trips. Thomas says Crow and his 2535 02:29:51,840 --> 02:29:55,200 wife are among his family's dearest friends. 2536 02:29:56,400 --> 02:29:59,790 Adam Curry: Yeah, of course. I don't think any Supreme Court 2537 02:29:59,790 --> 02:30:03,690 Judge CES really wants this to continue much longer. I mean, 2538 02:30:03,690 --> 02:30:06,270 John Roberts might have to report that he was at Epstein 2539 02:30:06,270 --> 02:30:10,770 island you know, that would be kind of lame. Which we have 2540 02:30:10,800 --> 02:30:17,640 photographic evidence of. So maybe not cool. But you know, 2541 02:30:17,640 --> 02:30:18,000 let's 2542 02:30:18,210 --> 02:30:21,060 John C Dvorak: Well, as I said in the newsletter, this is a 2543 02:30:21,060 --> 02:30:28,800 lame attempt by the Democrats to to embarrass the justice, maybe 2544 02:30:28,830 --> 02:30:33,630 just as a long shot possibly get him to resign. So Biden can put 2545 02:30:33,630 --> 02:30:37,530 one supreme court justice in because he's got no shot at it. 2546 02:30:37,770 --> 02:30:40,710 Adam Curry: I thought ABC did a much better job Justice 2547 02:30:40,710 --> 02:30:43,260 Unknown: Clarence Thomas has long described himself as a 2548 02:30:43,260 --> 02:30:45,750 simple man with simple tastes. 2549 02:30:45,780 --> 02:30:51,390 I prefer the RV parks. I prefer the Walmart parking lot. Beaches 2550 02:30:51,390 --> 02:30:57,390 and things like that or something. The normal to me 2551 02:30:57,390 --> 02:30:59,430 about it. I'd come from regular stock, 2552 02:30:59,460 --> 02:31:02,370 but according to a new report from the nonprofit, 2553 02:31:02,730 --> 02:31:04,590 Adam Curry: how good How good is that? 2554 02:31:05,400 --> 02:31:08,850 John C Dvorak: chicken shit hit job so good. I 2555 02:31:08,850 --> 02:31:11,040 Adam Curry: want to play that I played the whole beautiful it's 2556 02:31:11,040 --> 02:31:11,820 so good. 2557 02:31:11,850 --> 02:31:14,520 Unknown: It's Clarence Thomas has long described himself as a 2558 02:31:14,520 --> 02:31:17,010 simple man with simple tastes. 2559 02:31:17,040 --> 02:31:21,150 I prefer the RV parks. I prefer the Walmart parking lot. 2560 02:31:21,600 --> 02:31:24,240 John C Dvorak: Doing it and back rasam is somebody playing the 2561 02:31:24,240 --> 02:31:25,710 banjo or something? 2562 02:31:25,740 --> 02:31:28,710 Adam Curry: It's probably from some, you know, profile piece 2563 02:31:28,710 --> 02:31:29,730 that was done 100 2564 02:31:29,730 --> 02:31:32,550 John C Dvorak: times. Put it in? No, no, I'm, 2565 02:31:32,880 --> 02:31:35,280 Adam Curry: I'm telling you. This comes from some profile 2566 02:31:35,280 --> 02:31:39,030 piece where he's literally like, I like our national parks. 2567 02:31:39,120 --> 02:31:41,400 John C Dvorak: Yeah. And he's probably got a straw and 2568 02:31:42,270 --> 02:31:46,560 Adam Curry: she's got a straw hat and a straw with a piece of 2569 02:31:46,560 --> 02:31:49,980 wheat and his wife and his white wife. Oh, no, he's got a white 2570 02:31:49,980 --> 02:31:51,090 wife tastes 2571 02:31:51,150 --> 02:31:54,960 Unknown: I prefer the RV parks. I prefer the Walmart parking 2572 02:31:54,960 --> 02:31:57,390 lots to the beaches and things like 2573 02:31:59,190 --> 02:32:02,100 John C Dvorak: the Walmart parking lot to the beaches. 2574 02:32:02,370 --> 02:32:05,370 Well, what are you doing sunning yourself in the mall? Walmart 2575 02:32:05,370 --> 02:32:08,280 part? What is he talking about? Well, Walmart just seems out of 2576 02:32:08,280 --> 02:32:09,780 context. And maybe I'll tell 2577 02:32:09,780 --> 02:32:13,350 Adam Curry: you so this is about RVing basically, Walmart has 2578 02:32:13,350 --> 02:32:17,610 always allowed people to park their RVs and park them 2579 02:32:17,610 --> 02:32:20,190 overnight. You could actually just sleep in your car at 2580 02:32:20,190 --> 02:32:24,540 Walmart overnight. Okay, I think that even guarded I think they 2581 02:32:24,540 --> 02:32:27,960 have guards to protect people who Yeah, Walmart has always 2582 02:32:27,960 --> 02:32:30,780 been known as the RV yours paradise. We can stay overnight 2583 02:32:30,780 --> 02:32:32,370 if we can't find any other place to go. 2584 02:32:32,640 --> 02:32:36,780 Unknown: Tastes I prefer the RV parks. I prefer the Walmart 2585 02:32:36,780 --> 02:32:42,120 parking lots to the beaches and things like that. There's 2586 02:32:42,120 --> 02:32:47,130 something normal to me about it. I'd come from regular stock. 2587 02:32:47,160 --> 02:32:50,550 But according to a new report from the nonprofit journalism 2588 02:32:50,550 --> 02:32:54,780 site pro publica. Justice Thomas has accepted lavish vacation 2589 02:32:54,780 --> 02:32:58,290 trips from a Republican mega donor without disclosing them 2590 02:32:58,290 --> 02:33:02,460 for more than 20 years. The report says Justice Thomas 2591 02:33:02,460 --> 02:33:05,340 Island hopped on a super yacht through Indonesia, his lesser 2592 02:33:05,340 --> 02:33:08,550 Sunda Islands, took a little retreats at the luxury 2593 02:33:08,550 --> 02:33:12,420 Adirondack resort camp top ranch, and all male retreats at 2594 02:33:12,420 --> 02:33:16,590 the exclusive Bohemian Grove in California. All trips that would 2595 02:33:16,590 --> 02:33:18,240 cost a small fortune. 2596 02:33:18,270 --> 02:33:22,560 Adam Curry: I love throwing Bohemian Grove in there. Oh man, 2597 02:33:22,560 --> 02:33:26,520 he's an elite. He's at Bohemian Grove. All male retreat. 2598 02:33:26,760 --> 02:33:32,400 Suspicious. suspect this is where you go.

Yeah, well, but it's 2603 02:33:43,860 --> 02:33:45,990 just a bunch of drunks to be honest about it. 2604 02:33:46,560 --> 02:33:49,590 Adam Curry: Did you like did you like the owl?

I want you to just go back and say it's a 2608 02:33:57,300 --> 02:34:00,630 bunch of drunks and then then launch into the hour or the 2609 02:34:00,630 --> 02:34:04,020 John C Dvorak: drunks unbelievable. Okay, there's two 2610 02:34:04,020 --> 02:34:07,350 observations I made one some one of the guys taking me around 2611 02:34:07,350 --> 02:34:11,460 he's hanging he's a photographer for the places we're chatting 2612 02:34:11,460 --> 02:34:16,860 and he says you you want to see the owl I may have suggested 2613 02:34:16,860 --> 02:34:19,470 What's it but is our because this is all they keep showing 2614 02:34:19,470 --> 02:34:21,990 all the pictures of this Great Owl and is all this you know 2615 02:34:21,990 --> 02:34:26,280 they're butchering babies in front of it or something. So he 2616 02:34:26,280 --> 02:34:31,050 says yeah, the owl and he says you so he takes me the owl the 2617 02:34:31,050 --> 02:34:36,990 owl is an old tree no stump. It is rotted out. There's no owl 2618 02:34:36,990 --> 02:34:41,850 anymore. It's just a mess. It is overgrown with ferns. It looks 2619 02:34:41,850 --> 02:34:45,480 terrible. But it's it is what was left of the owl that I guess 2620 02:34:45,480 --> 02:34:50,160 the owl dissolved in the 40s or something this owl is bullcrap. 2621 02:34:50,250 --> 02:34:52,680 So let's start with the bullcrap. Now the second thing I 2622 02:34:52,680 --> 02:34:54,930 thought was interesting and I've always thought about doing this 2623 02:34:54,930 --> 02:34:59,010 myself. If you go out at night with a flashlight or somebody 2624 02:34:59,010 --> 02:35:06,180 roaming around just For whatever reason, looking for booze you 2625 02:35:06,180 --> 02:35:10,620 walk as you walk in there's all this noise is crickets and frogs 2626 02:35:10,620 --> 02:35:15,720 and all this stuff going on. And if you stop for more than like 2627 02:35:15,720 --> 02:35:19,290 20 seconds and you don't move because it gets suspicious boom 2628 02:35:19,320 --> 02:35:20,400 the sound goes away. 2629 02:35:20,910 --> 02:35:23,790 Adam Curry: Oh really that so it's manufactured 2630 02:35:24,270 --> 02:35:26,910 John C Dvorak: yeah and so yeah so you walk around somewhere 2631 02:35:26,910 --> 02:35:30,360 there starts up again frogs and crickets and all this racket I 2632 02:35:30,360 --> 02:35:31,830 thought that was fascinating 2633 02:35:31,860 --> 02:35:34,470 Adam Curry: never told part of the story that is new. I've 2634 02:35:34,470 --> 02:35:35,430 never heard this. 2635 02:35:35,610 --> 02:35:38,190 John C Dvorak: Yeah, I always thought the found that to be 2636 02:35:38,220 --> 02:35:41,730 interesting that they manufacture this. This woodsy 2637 02:35:41,730 --> 02:35:43,980 sounds so when you're out, you know, it seems like there's 2638 02:35:43,980 --> 02:35:46,350 something going on. There's nothing so a bunch of dead 2639 02:35:46,350 --> 02:35:47,130 silence 2640 02:35:47,130 --> 02:35:51,480 Adam Curry: a bunch of drunk dudes. With it with a burnt out. 2641 02:35:51,780 --> 02:35:55,740 Owl. Oh, the owls a joke was a jokey owl. 2642 02:35:56,100 --> 02:35:58,020 John C Dvorak: And with oh, they also have they have a couple of 2643 02:35:58,020 --> 02:36:00,570 stages. They have a lot of stages in the different camps to 2644 02:36:01,200 --> 02:36:03,630 Steve Miller, for example, has his own cat I 2645 02:36:03,630 --> 02:36:05,340 Adam Curry: mean from macho city, Steve Miller, 2646 02:36:05,400 --> 02:36:07,110 John C Dvorak: the Steve Miller the singer. Yeah, 2647 02:36:07,140 --> 02:36:13,110 Adam Curry: macho city. Or like a fly like an owl? Yeah. 2648 02:36:13,590 --> 02:36:17,280 John C Dvorak: He's got a stage big stage and his you can't get 2649 02:36:17,280 --> 02:36:20,130 in? It's like it is. There's all these 100 2650 02:36:20,220 --> 02:36:22,590 Adam Curry: other things. I'm glad I asked because you didn't 2651 02:36:22,590 --> 02:36:24,720 tell me about this either. I didn't about Steve Miller having 2652 02:36:24,720 --> 02:36:25,530 a stage. 2653 02:36:25,980 --> 02:36:28,200 John C Dvorak: Oh, yeah, he's got a big stage and in a pack 2654 02:36:28,200 --> 02:36:31,860 every night. He does a concert with his boys. And you just 2655 02:36:31,860 --> 02:36:35,790 can't get into it. It's just as you know, stage is pretty big 2656 02:36:35,790 --> 02:36:38,190 area. But it's just impossible to get into these these 2657 02:36:38,190 --> 02:36:39,000 performances 2658 02:36:39,030 --> 02:36:42,660 Adam Curry: and motion detected. Wildlife. Yeah. 2659 02:36:42,840 --> 02:36:45,300 John C Dvorak: Still cracks me up when I think about it. Wow. 2660 02:36:45,330 --> 02:36:45,540 Okay. 2661 02:36:45,570 --> 02:36:48,060 Adam Curry: Well, since you're on the talking since you have 2662 02:36:48,060 --> 02:36:51,450 the talking stick, here's a story that I we we might have 2663 02:36:51,450 --> 02:36:54,120 glossed over but I figure you could just say something about 2664 02:36:54,120 --> 02:36:55,020 it. Listen to the story. 2665 02:36:55,080 --> 02:36:58,650 Unknown: This week we highlight another life well lift Silicon 2666 02:36:58,650 --> 02:37:02,160 Valley is synonymous with the bold, brilliant innovators who 2667 02:37:02,160 --> 02:37:06,150 have revolutionized the way we live. The man who first saw the 2668 02:37:06,150 --> 02:37:09,720 potential of the very silicon that gives the valley its name 2669 02:37:09,960 --> 02:37:13,920 was one of the boldest and most brilliant of them all, Gordon 2670 02:37:13,920 --> 02:37:18,060 Moore was raised the son of a county sheriff in the small 2671 02:37:18,060 --> 02:37:22,200 northern California town of Pescadero. After earning his 2672 02:37:22,200 --> 02:37:25,620 doctorate in chemistry from the California Institute of 2673 02:37:25,620 --> 02:37:29,160 Technology, he worked at a number of laboratories in 2674 02:37:29,160 --> 02:37:33,000 companies where he became fascinated with the potential of 2675 02:37:33,000 --> 02:37:39,330 silicon microchips to process data and power computers. In 2676 02:37:39,330 --> 02:37:44,670 1965, he coined Moore's law, still a guiding philosophy in 2677 02:37:44,670 --> 02:37:49,200 the tech industry, which stated the power of silicon chips would 2678 02:37:49,200 --> 02:37:54,990 double every couple of years. In 1968, Moore and his colleague 2679 02:37:54,990 --> 02:37:59,730 Robert Noyce founded their own company, Integrated Electronics 2680 02:37:59,730 --> 02:38:04,380 corporation, or Intel, for short, their company's micro 2681 02:38:04,380 --> 02:38:09,000 processors are found in just about anything electronic, and 2682 02:38:09,000 --> 02:38:14,070 innovator who changed the world. died last week at home in 2683 02:38:14,070 --> 02:38:17,640 Hawaii. He was 94 years old. 2684 02:38:18,120 --> 02:38:20,580 Adam Curry: Now, I will just say that they did not get Moore's 2685 02:38:20,580 --> 02:38:24,750 Law correct there because it was doubled and half the price, but 2686 02:38:24,750 --> 02:38:27,630 that, of course has been forgotten. With the idiots at 2687 02:38:27,630 --> 02:38:30,000 NPR. Do you have anything to say about Gordon Moore because I'm 2688 02:38:30,000 --> 02:38:31,140 sure he did you know him. 2689 02:38:32,010 --> 02:38:35,940 John C Dvorak: I met him a few times. Okay. But I never went to 2690 02:38:35,940 --> 02:38:37,560 his house for dinner. So I don't really deal with 2691 02:38:37,560 --> 02:38:39,330 Adam Curry: not a friend, not a friend, not a friend. 2692 02:38:40,500 --> 02:38:43,080 John C Dvorak: But he was one of the guys I think there were that 2693 02:38:43,080 --> 02:38:46,080 I forget how many there were I think there's four or eight 2694 02:38:46,080 --> 02:38:51,600 something like that. He was at. He was at Fairchild 2695 02:38:51,720 --> 02:38:55,560 Semiconductor, which is always left out of the story. Oh, and 2696 02:38:55,680 --> 02:39:02,040 Fairchild and they Fairchild is run by. There was Shockley Labs, 2697 02:39:02,040 --> 02:39:04,170 which was the original place. I don't know if you've ever worked 2698 02:39:04,170 --> 02:39:05,340 there. Wait, shocked but 2699 02:39:05,370 --> 02:39:07,590 Adam Curry: Shockley is the guy who had the idea for the 2700 02:39:07,590 --> 02:39:11,430 transistor who got it from the aliens? Yes. Okay. Right. And 2701 02:39:11,430 --> 02:39:13,230 never came up with anything cool again. 2702 02:39:13,350 --> 02:39:16,140 John C Dvorak: That's my understanding. In fact, Majora 2703 02:39:16,140 --> 02:39:20,100 George Morrow used to work for Shockley. And he says the rumor 2704 02:39:20,100 --> 02:39:23,550 around in labs was that the old man, the old man lost it because 2705 02:39:23,550 --> 02:39:27,810 he couldn't do anything other than this transistor. So he 2706 02:39:28,260 --> 02:39:32,640 Shockley labs, I think George Moore was at Shockley labs and 2707 02:39:32,730 --> 02:39:39,090 with Noyce, and a bunch of other guys. He quit Shockley labs to 2708 02:39:39,090 --> 02:39:43,020 form Fairchild Semiconductor, which I worked at when I was in 2709 02:39:43,020 --> 02:39:43,200 high 2710 02:39:43,200 --> 02:39:45,780 Adam Curry: school. Oh, there we go. What did you do at Fairchild 2711 02:39:45,780 --> 02:39:46,620 Semiconductor was 2712 02:39:46,620 --> 02:39:50,010 John C Dvorak: in the chip growing the crystal growing lab 2713 02:39:50,400 --> 02:39:53,430 and we grew crystals that's when we used to grow crystals in this 2714 02:39:53,430 --> 02:39:56,400 country. When I was a kid we grew our own crystals 2715 02:39:56,430 --> 02:39:59,190 Adam Curry: wet like crystals like I used to have in my in my 2716 02:39:59,190 --> 02:39:59,760 scanner. 2717 02:40:00,900 --> 02:40:02,760 John C Dvorak: Well, that's what would be part of the crystal 2718 02:40:02,760 --> 02:40:07,260 itself is a long turd like thing that is then chopped up into 2719 02:40:07,260 --> 02:40:08,430 wafers and then 2720 02:40:08,789 --> 02:40:11,009 Adam Curry: Oh, I see. So you were growing crystals. That's 2721 02:40:11,009 --> 02:40:13,349 when you got the invite to Bohemian Grove, right? 2722 02:40:13,859 --> 02:40:20,189 John C Dvorak: No. That's funny. And so that was at Fairchild and 2723 02:40:20,189 --> 02:40:24,239 then Fairchild, him and Robert Noyce, other guys, I 2724 02:40:24,240 --> 02:40:27,390 Adam Curry: want to stop you for a second. Yeah. No one knows 2725 02:40:27,390 --> 02:40:31,680 about the explain what the crystals were for that. Why were 2726 02:40:31,680 --> 02:40:35,520 you growing crystals? I mean, were these people today only 2727 02:40:35,520 --> 02:40:37,860 know crystals. are they hanging around their neck? Whoo crystal, 2728 02:40:37,890 --> 02:40:40,590 I charged it in the moonlight. People need to know about 2729 02:40:40,590 --> 02:40:43,770 crystals. What is it? How do they grow? Why do you need them 2730 02:40:43,770 --> 02:40:44,640 where they go in. 2731 02:40:46,230 --> 02:40:49,800 John C Dvorak: So complicated. The crystals are grown in a big 2732 02:40:49,800 --> 02:40:54,960 vat of boiling silicon. And there's like, it's like a 2733 02:40:54,960 --> 02:40:57,450 candle. And it's like there's like a thing that goes into 2734 02:40:57,450 --> 02:41:00,480 this. It's not like it's quite a stick, but you pull it, you 2735 02:41:00,480 --> 02:41:02,940 start pulling it's called pulling the crystal and you 2736 02:41:02,940 --> 02:41:05,880 start pulling it out of this mess. And it starts to 2737 02:41:05,880 --> 02:41:08,790 crystallize as it comes out in it. It just comes out and you 2738 02:41:08,790 --> 02:41:12,570 get this thing. This is back in the day, when the crystals were 2739 02:41:12,570 --> 02:41:16,950 only like, I don't know, an inch inch, maybe two inches wide, as 2740 02:41:16,950 --> 02:41:22,140 opposed to today's crystals, which are 14 inches wide. Done 2741 02:41:22,140 --> 02:41:28,260 in Germany, mostly, I think. And we I don't think we grow them 2742 02:41:28,260 --> 02:41:31,890 here anymore. But they had a bunch of these these devices 2743 02:41:31,890 --> 02:41:34,050 that would pull these crystals and you'd pull one of these 2744 02:41:34,050 --> 02:41:38,190 things out. It took about I think it took about maybe a 2745 02:41:38,190 --> 02:41:41,370 whole shift. It was all women that were doing the crystal 2746 02:41:41,370 --> 02:41:45,750 pulling. And I my job description was a foreman. So my 2747 02:41:45,750 --> 02:41:49,740 job description in high school because he needed a guy you told 2748 02:41:49,740 --> 02:41:52,170 Adam Curry: you told the women get out grow crystals. 2749 02:41:53,760 --> 02:41:56,370 John C Dvorak: This guy is my supervisor takes me into his 2750 02:41:56,370 --> 02:42:02,880 office and his instructions. He pulls open a drawer and grabs 2751 02:42:02,880 --> 02:42:06,840 one of the crystals it's in his in his desk drawer, puts it on 2752 02:42:06,840 --> 02:42:12,300 the desk and he says to me, these crystals are worth $1,000 2753 02:42:12,300 --> 02:42:22,290 apiece. Do not do not ever tell those women that Wow. It was my 2754 02:42:22,290 --> 02:42:28,050 job. My job is not to tell the women that these crystals that 2755 02:42:28,050 --> 02:42:31,830 they were growing were worth $1,000 apiece. So there you have 2756 02:42:31,830 --> 02:42:33,300 it. It's different today's world. 2757 02:42:34,590 --> 02:42:37,560 Adam Curry: Never heard the crystal growing story. I'm blown 2758 02:42:37,560 --> 02:42:39,720 away. Keep going. I'm loving to get a million 2759 02:42:39,720 --> 02:42:44,610 John C Dvorak: of them. So more and noise and a few other people 2760 02:42:44,610 --> 02:42:50,430 a group of them wanted to do do they dreamed up this idea of 2761 02:42:50,460 --> 02:42:53,910 Integrated Electronics which they weren't doing at Shockley 2762 02:42:53,910 --> 02:42:57,150 and they weren't doing at Fairchild for sure. Fairchild 2763 02:42:57,150 --> 02:43:01,440 was making chips I think and belong with a lot of audio gear. 2764 02:43:01,440 --> 02:43:02,580 That was quite nice. Oh, that's 2765 02:43:02,580 --> 02:43:04,890 Adam Curry: right. Fairchild, the audio company of course. 2766 02:43:05,040 --> 02:43:07,650 John C Dvorak: Yeah, they made those big giant 16 inch did 2767 02:43:08,370 --> 02:43:13,950 transcription readers anyway. Wow. So they quit, does it 2768 02:43:13,950 --> 02:43:16,890 because this story. I don't know if it's ever been put in print. 2769 02:43:16,890 --> 02:43:22,200 But just Morrow told me this part. They quit to form Intel. 2770 02:43:22,710 --> 02:43:25,770 And so the guys at Fairchild were all IRQ because it's like 2771 02:43:25,770 --> 02:43:28,980 their best people I think more was like they did r&d or 2772 02:43:28,980 --> 02:43:32,220 something. And so they got pissed off and they said we're 2773 02:43:32,220 --> 02:43:39,210 gonna sue Intel out of business. Shockley got word of that. Since 2774 02:43:39,780 --> 02:43:42,780 since Fairchild came out of Shockley and Shockley said you 2775 02:43:42,780 --> 02:43:49,590 sue them and I'm suing you because Fairchild wouldn't exist 2776 02:43:49,590 --> 02:43:54,750 without Shockley right?
