Oh, really? Ah. And you know, a lot of the cop cars here that,
you know, see some say like to county police. But then there
are a couple that say police and it says Homeland Security. How
does that work?
Well, they've given themselves a police power.
It must be and they're the ones that are always with the
screaming sirens. Oh, yeah. Oh, I read Homeland Security
stepaside son.
They're just essentially promoted rent the cops.
I must be. And I also must say a big in the morning to everyone
listening to this program on WB CQ beaming out i with 50,000
watts on 7.49 or zero megahertz. How's that? What is that? Yeah,
we're on one of our producers is putting us on a 50,000 watt
shortwave.
Oh, I'm sure shortwave. Yeah.
So we're really are beaming out to all ships. It's gonna
Jonestown CQ Jonestown? Awesome. Well, let me just get the so we
have it's 7.490 megahertz and I think maybe maybe it's also on
5.110 megahertz. Do we have to do call sign every 15 minutes?
Do we have to say do we have to say WBC? Q here with no agenda
show? I don't know.
I mean, there's rules but I don't know about rebroadcasting.
Our show being included. I like it. We'll find out with a nasty
letter from the FCC. Yeah,
I'm tickled pink. Well, I I'm taking my test. I think it's

Yeah. And then I tested repeaters.
Oh, yeah. No, I'm looking forward to it. It's gonna be

but ya know that we love the healthy surprise.com box is
great.
So there's one in here. That's pretty funny. And they're
actually quite good. They're called cocoa runes. Cocoa runes,
are
they like muck macaroons?
Yes, but they're wonderfully raw. Made of cocoa. And here's
the bull crap that's on the back. You know, raw, um, it says
raw almond flour. Oh, and then it said then has an asterisk.
And it says make maker
may contain flour. says
our almonds are from California. And by law have to be
pasteurized. However, the oils was in remain raw.
Well isn't pasteurization, like nuked with radiation? No, no,
it's
just boiling. Oh,
interesting. Right? So
how does that How to Tell me the explain this to me? I didn't ask
Adam. How do you pass your eyes parted to half the product and
the other half still remains raw. How does that work?
They probably only boiled a little bit on the outside boil.
Bulk crab, boil it too much sun, everything will be good. I don't
know. I don't know. I just wanted to mention that so we're
still in Washington DC we've been here for the eMERGE Art
Fair. And this of this of course has been my supportive Ms.
Mickey, who has been so kind to support our show. In a in a
trailer I might add, but at least she put me in a well it's
kind of a hotel. You know, it doesn't have roadside, let's
face it. It's kind of a motor. Well, I went down this morning
to have breakfast and I was just wearing like my you have to see
what I wear when I do the show but I really don't
want to see it.
But suffice to say the guy at the quote unquote restaurant
looked at me and I said, Yeah, it's I'm wearing my pajamas.
Okay, just give me some coffee.
Wait a minute, you went down and out of the room pretty much out
to a restaurant in pajamas. Pretty much.
Yeah. With my
we're getting here on the show. No agenda show, ladies and
gentlemen.
No agenda show. How you doing? And there's people from Taiwan,
looking at pretty much this people from Taiwan and like
Denmark, and they're, they're giving me the evil eye stink. I
like what you said to you. My hair is all messed up and stuff.
I have give crap.
You couldn't slip on a pair of pants.
Well, no, I hadn't. But the pajama kind of pants with with
pockets. So anyway, so we're here and, and very exciting.
Miss Mickey's. And one of her pieces of art was featured in
the printed version of The Washington Post yesterday. And
of course, she's she's now sold some pieces. So it's very, very
exciting for her.
Ah, the power of the press. Yes. And of course Washington
Post is great. They never tell a lie. They're awesome. Yes,
exactly. That's how it works. Power of the press. But man
we've had, I have some stories to tell. But maybe we should. We
should thank some producers first. And I actually let me
start off by thanking Martin JJ, for doing the album art on the
previous episode. Outstanding job, we always look forward to
what our artists produce for us. And of course, you can always
see all of the art that is produced for each and every
single episode even though they may not be chosen. They are
they're great to print out and make coasters of you can find
that at no agenda art generator.com it? Would it make
a great coaster set. Yeah, it's not a bad idea, actually. Hmm.
It doesn't have to it doesn't have to be the ones that were
chosen for episodes. I mean, you could do all of these.
Well, some of them are lewd. So well, I guess. All right. So we
want to thank Miss rice for being an Insta night. Whoa.
Hello. Came in from Brooks, Alberta, where
all the money is where all the money
is. I believe he just stepped outside. And he's oh, wait a
minute. There's a bunch of money laying around.
What Oh, what did I find here in the corner of my pocket? So he
grabbed it. And then he were still actually in a dispute with
Pay Pal over this money. And my dad.
Oh, really? Yeah. How does that? How does that
for one thing, he somehow sent it to the old original account,
right? And it doesn't really have very little traffic and
it's $1,000 shows up. So they sent him a note say are you sure
you're sending $1,000 to these guys? And he said, Yeah, grill
them again. What? Yeah, and so then they grilled me and I said
yeah, and then they grill him and they grilled me I mean it's
ridiculous kidding me? No may have to actually cancel the
money and send it to the other account or some
of these Dushan homers over there to pay pal. That's sucks.
As I wish I sent it to my we have some special people that
supposedly help us and we'll find out on Monday. Oh, when
they get back to work.
You mean people who? Who who listen to the show or people
that we have on the inside of PayPal or both?
I don't know. They contacted me once.
Doesn't matter because we give him the benefit of the doubt.
And you said Susan is tonight. Michael Curran, Sir Michael
Kearns to you and Platte City Missoura came in with 450 Oh,
and he is the member of the 450 the
only member and it's great to have you there Sir Michael
Kearns. Good choice. Good choice. Shuffle from
Castile, Baton Rouge, Louisiana will be associated executive
producer. And he says see emails for further information. There
was no email chain, you had to send it the way I looked in my
spam box. And
I looked in mind too. Yeah, cuz it came in. I was like, All
right, I'll look for it. I didn't see anything either. Abdi
is this information on the knighthood and name information
so we want to make sure hopefully he's listening I don't
want to do we want to wait with his knighting then perhaps in
case he wants it to No, no, it's fine. I know that he's got the
money in no I know but maybe he wants it you know he doesn't he
doesn't want the knighthood bestowed upon someone else
perhaps we want to make sure we do it right. Look, I don't
get any indication. No, no, because he had his ring size
added to follow up
all right. Well, you don't you you don't have to like grown at
me like it's you know.
This because it complicates things. So when you do that get
to do Deobandi a black night sometime in 2014.
When you make this sound, could you just do that? you can make
that sound. Could you follow that? With one which sayings?
Yeah, you make the sound and then you say, I'll just have an
apple in my room. I have a what? An apple in my room.
Just have an apple in my room. Okay, I'll try it. I'll give it
I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. AKDY okay, we go just
have an apple in my room. Good.
Thank you very much.
Did I nail it? You
nailed it. That's where my that's where my great
grandmother used to say. That sound that you made the
beginning was the same like ah, and they said, I'll just have an
apple in my room because it was a dinner wasn't right or
whatever. You nailed.
Well, that's the way you pass something lousy cooking of the
host.
Thank you for nailing that. It was very important.

I guess that's good. I guess that's a compliment.
He's laughing at deconstruction,
or just the the general Armageddon that our that our

no agenda nation.com In no agenda show.com have buttons you
can hit and get to the donation page that way. We want to thank
everybody and even the lesser donors for helping us
Oh, absolutely. Yes, absolutely. As we are on our way towards our
fifth anniversary, which is October 23. And more
importantly, I would say this Thursday will be 1011 12 which
is a very special number it happens once every 100 years I
think 1011 12 Yeah, very rare, which equals 33 For those of you
had not right I get it but I'll
put that in the next newsletter that might be a thought
it might be a donation karma opportunity for people
a bonanza board a lot of money 33 would be the donation that
that would be
the level all right for those of you who just tuned in for the
first time you are listening to.org/and That's right, it's a
jingle Bonanza and please help us propagate the formula
our formula is this we go out we hit people in the mouth
yo, so I need to discuss something technical just briefly
here at the top of the show because I think there is
something wrong with the Apple reality distortion field that we
need to to look into and I know we have a lot of producers on
the who listen to this program who understand these things. And
I've just haven't been able to get far enough because you know
people like me stupid disc jockey, what do you now shut up?
So, we move to a single hosting solution offered to us kindly by
the troika of Mr. Oil. We've got void zero, we've got get mostly
these guys kind of run the infrastructure. And the main
reason is we wanted to be independent and not rely, you
know, have to rely on someone else who we can't call i e m e
vo. And because we had a couple problems, so we moved everything
over and this actually happened during the tour. The Hot Pockets
2009 tour for you new loop new listeners that was this past
summer not to not three years ago. And everything was running
well and then all of a sudden we start having problems. And I
here's how I boiled down the problem. I OS six for the iPhone
was released before the iPhone five. And we started to see a
lot of traffic coming to our mp3 files, substantial amount of
more traffic now. And this is not so strange because I think a
lot of people who listen to the program as a podcast, get it on
their iPhone, it seems to be kind of the sort of prevalent
device out there, certainly for people who are subscribed and
automatically get it when the show was released. But what we
were seeing is these iPhones connecting, disconnecting and
then starting the download over again. So we kind of saw our
bandwidth go up our outgoing bandwidth go up quite a bit,
then the iPhone five was released with this new iOS six.
And it's been out of control. It's almost like a denial of
service attack. And it is directly related to the way the
iOS six software downloads. And I've been able to corroborate
this with other people, they're seeing similar behavior. But
more importantly, people are running out of their AT and T or
Verizon bandwidth, because their iPhones are doing this. And what
happens invariably, is when we have all of these iPhones kick
in automatically to try and download the show the minute
it's released, then, you know, we don't have a CDN, we can't
afford anything as luxurious as that. So then it almost looks
like a denial of service attack, then stuff starts to break and
then you know, then then any phone or any computer will have
a download issue for a while until the you know, until it
kind of shakes out that can take one or two days. And this has
been a really big problem. And I'm looking squarely at it being
an iOS six HTTP download or library problem not necessarily
the any of the apps but how the apps access files on the
internet. And so hopefully people can look into that and
and help us out because we just don't have a CDN and you know,
CD ends are much better at handling this kind of traffic in
a distributed manner. So we just don't have that so it's hurting
the show. Apparently, yeah. And I don't know what to do other
than just say hey, help Well, you know, apples so busy fixing
their stupid maps, you know, they got no time for us.
I think it's an attack on podcasting.
It's a war on podcasting. Exactly. Best we
need a jingle for this or war on podcast. Otherwise, you're gonna
have to hear us on the shortwave,
which I hear is doing quite well. 50,000 watts.
That's a lot of watts.
That's a pretty big state. I wonder how much does he the guy
must have a diesel generator.
And with that, kind of take it off the grid with that kind of
with that bat with the frequencies that they should be
getting a lot of tropospheric bounce. So we should we probably
can be heard in Africa. Hello, Africa. Hello, Libya. Well,
since we're on Africa as a topic, yeah, by playing the clip
China just to keep people up to date we started when we started
this show, we picked up on this Chinese and Africa trend right
away. Because some meetings we had with people really, and
I don't remember you having a meeting
when we saw you guys from Germany that clued me into this
when I was in Toronto about what was going on. And I brought it
up on the show a number of times. Correct. I consider that
a meeting and it was over a beer and a bar. But oh, that's a
meeting? Yes. Okay. It is a meeting at beer in a bars
meeting. And it is a good meeting. So I thought we'd
update everything and play that we had a couple of clips here
China's in Africa update. This is from China.
Shipping so well, and enjoying the stage experience. Well, in
the final installment of China invests we go to Africa, China,
being Africa's biggest trading partner has inspired praise,
envy and criticism. Much of the criticism comes from the US most
of the praise from Africa. At least one survey taken in 10
African countries shows that Chinese trade and investment is
viewed overwhelmingly favorable. Correspondent Rochelle Akufo, a
citizen of Ghana has this report.
The shortest route to downtown Nairobi, the capital of Kenya is
now this smooth ribbon of asphalt built by the Chinese.
Many here also see it as the shortest route to prosperity in
East Africa, in a country where the average per capita income is
just $1,800 a year. Nairobi's legendary traffic jams cost the
Kenyan economy an estimated half million dollars a day in extra
fuel and lost man hours. But it will do more than save Kenya
money it will make money too. When completed this 50 kilometer
stretch of highway not only will complete a ring road around the
city, it will be a link to neighboring Ethiopia supporting
an expansion of trade to a market with some 80 million
people
shooting this will ease traffic pressure create job
opportunities, training and skills for locals on this
project. 95% of stuff Ilocos
China is already Africa's single largest trading partner. And
there's more investment capital on the way
Hey, how can we can get some money from them Chinese for the
show?
Well as things progress, I think it's possible Come on man, I do
have their invest investing in the US I have an in to show clip
that talks about that a little bit, because it's pretty
peculiar what they're investing in. But then meanwhile, of
course, the Chinese report. By the way, I want to say I've
noticed this both with our TV, the Russian propaganda outlet.
And CCTV, they are being a little more aggressive than
being critical to do they set up shop here in the US to have
their little stations. And they have been pretty reticent to go
after the government. Because they don't know that. So now
more recently, they're just given it to us. And I think clip
two is the guy's got a little Zinger. That's quite why they
want this is CCTV. Is that what this is? Yeah. Where are the
China Central China television and
where are they headquartered where their studios? Are they in
Washington, maybe? I,
we should studios are in China.
Oh, okay. I thought they had, like our T has local studios in
in Hoboken or whatever.
As far as I know, there's the Chinese have no studios. Okay.
All right.
At the China Africa forum in Beijing this year, Chinese
President Hu Jintao pledged a $20 billion line of credit just
for the next three years. With this expansion of come charges
of exploitation, mainly from those competing for African
business. on trips to Africa, US Secretary of State Hillary
Clinton warned of a new colonialism threatening the
continent. The majority of Africans see things differently,
preferring China's influence over America's by a wide margin.
Hillary's complaining the Chinese are in her in your game.
Is that what I'm hearing? Yeah, that's funny.
One year survey conducted in 10 African countries found
respondents overwhelmingly in favor of a Chinese connection.
In Kenya. 91% of respondents said China's presence was
positive, versus 74%, who felt that way about America's that
spread was bigger in Senegal, narrower in Garner, in Tanzania,
a majority 52% thought American influence was a bad thing.
Without a doubt, China has had a huge correlation with the
increase in African GDP. And let me quickly tell you why what
happened was Chinese demand increased the demand for African
commodities lifted the price structure. So we effectively got
a much better price for the things that we were selling.
Although Chinese investment in more than 50 African countries
has grown exponentially in the past decade, one country has
done more trade with China and received more Chinese direct
investments than all the African countries combined. The United
States, Rochelle Akufo, CCTV Washington.
Yeah, see, I think I think we should be talking to them. I
mean, first of all, their reports are really dry and
boring if they want some kind of you think if they want some kind
of news going on, you know, we get the courage of where I
Consulting Group and certainly do a better job than that. Oh,
yeah. I mean, please, please. Dreadful killing me with this.
Wow.
But anyway, they didn't realize that they were the number one
trading partner
with China. Oh, that doesn't surprise me at all. Actually.
No,
it doesn't surprise me but I didn't know it. Yeah. Apparently
we just been screwing the Africans over the years. We give
him some food until you give us stuff free.
It's been interesting here in DC because there's a lot of
Africans here the cab drivers the guys in the restaurant the
guy sweeping the 711 and I'm you know me I'm like, Hey, man,
where are you from? I see you here someone with an accent by
the way. They're not all black is a crazy thing. So where are
you from? They're like brown all kinds of colors. Are you from?
Oh, Nairobi. Oh, where you're from? What was the other one?
Can no not Nairobi, Nigeria. I said I got an email from your
brother. The guy didn't get that one. But you can say to every
single one of these people I think I've mentioned it before
just say oh, a lot of Chinese there and they their eyes light
up and then I'm They're like, yeah, yeah, they just love it
when you say that, because no one here in America knows
anything about they're like, I'm from I'm from Nairobi or
wherever, like, they have no idea where that is. Americans
are too stupid. So that, you know, they feel kind of left
alone and isolated except in their own little community. And
so if you just come in and into their life into their path, and
you know, say something like that they love it. And even if
you don't know what that wave the hell the country is just
say, oh, China chat is in there. And they'll tell you all kinds
of things. They won't stop talking. It's great.
For them, they won't stop talking. But it's nice
to be in the cab. You know, it's like you're driving around the
geyser. It's nice. I like it. I like it. We we had we had a
different cab driver here that I could hear an accent. So where
are you from? Jerusalem Palestine. Oh, you're
Palestinian. He says, That's right. And 1948 There was no
Israel. Like no grudge whatsoever there. Yes,
interesting melting pot here in DC. And that's for sure. I got
this is the just in time for Cybersecurity Awareness Month.
You know, of course, we have to, we've scared the congressman and
the senators. That's what Janet Napolitano said, quite
literally, you know, I really hope I scared the bejesus out of
them so that they can pass all these stupid laws. And of
course, we have to bring this home now. Obviously, we're going
to scare all of you individuals, how your children I'm being
safe. But in case in case you have a small business, we want
to scare you into accepting legislation after the executive
order comes out. Oops. And then of course, I would have to hit
the right button. It's like a digital form of kidnapping your
computer data held for ransom. Hackers using a sophisticated
new scam known as ransomware. Silicon Valley correspondent Dan
Simon is Lehmann Wainaina. Hello again. Yeah.
It's just this is an old story.
It's back baby.
Is back a plate but do you know this Silicon Valley
correspondent to they speak up? I just want Dan assign the name.
What is I think it's Dan Simon. Let's check it Yeah, held for
ransom by hackers using a sophisticated new scam known as
ransomware. CNN Silicon Valley correspondent Dan Simon is
looking into it for us. Do you know Dan Simon, is he a regular
they're on the Silicon Valley circuit?
I never heard of him.
They Exactly.
Steve Merryfield owns a high end sporting goods shop. After 27
years in business, he'd been preparing to sell it so very
hard. All the records for potential buyers stored on his
computer server. So Merryfield was more than concerned when he
realized all this data had been frozen. The last words I
remember is this is not good. This is not good. It turned out
hackers had taken control of his machine and flashed a message
for $3,000 Merryfield could have his data back. But it didn't
stop there. He'd have to fork over an additional $1,000 for
each week. He didn't comply.
They have to understand that this this may be two or three
months old. But this John is Cybersecurity Awareness Month.
Ah,
exactly.
This is it's just so blatantly obvious how they do. This
is an old story. I think I first heard this about I think almost
a year ago. Yeah. Oh, yeah, how old it is. And you can
you can go online and you can get all the ways to get out of
it. It's not like this is unescapable.
The whole world is reinstall the operating system if you wanted
to make a difference. Well, yeah, there's a lot of ways to
get out of it.
Exactly. Exactly. You can you just boot up from something
else, and then it's good to go. But I was just like, wow, were
they there? I mean, there's there's so many things. Of
course, of course we have the
well, they must wait, hold on a second. Yeah. They mentioned all
those options, I'm sure in the story are no
no, I'm sorry. No.
I said I heard you. You said no,
no, no. They they recommend getting the most recent
antivirus software from your trusted provider. Like these
McAfee people don't know when When will someone really catch
on that it's these guys that put the viruses out there? I mean,
come on. I mean, this is such an obvious scam. Big Government
contracts. Jeez, Louise. This is like the ratings agencies. Why
would anyone trust them? So there's been a lot of really
interesting legislation and all kinds of things happening
because oh yeah, we've been distracted by some bull crap. If
for those you who are not In the No I'm glad that we have our
senior financial analysts with us here, economist and Nobel
Prize winning economist John C. Dvorak to explain to explain the
latest surprising jobs numbers to us. Yeah.
Did you jobs numbers actually are new, I think it was 118,000.
And the plus side of the column, which is again, which is about
40, or 32,000, low from what is needed every month, which is
150,000 that somehow I don't know how they jiggered it
around, but they somehow managed to make it sound like there was
800,000 when there wasn't, and then the unemployment dropped to
7.8% because he needed to get underneath that magic number.
And it's like, nobody's buying into this. It's just like a
joke. It's up for the MSNBC. Well, it's
not just MSNBC and I'm actually very angry. Because it's like,
hello, only one person can actually legitimately call
himself the crackpot and now the calling Jack Welch should crack
pot, the calling all these other people crackpots is like get
out, get out of my business. Will you? Come on, move away?
Yes, Jack Welch and for people who don't know, tweeted, yeah,
that's the point. Imagine him tweeting so funny. Honey, how do
you turn this thing on his wife?
Tweet? Yeah. So,
okay, so we did that this is bogus.
Okay. So can we know because you are the one that has always been
explaining re explaining the use six numbers, how we, you know,
the bomb factor where the labor participation people just fall
off, you know, fall off the edge of the chart, and are living on
the street, and therefore no longer counted. And that helps
the number change. I mean, is this truly Bogut IV?
Well, let me see.
What do you mean, you haven't looked at this yet? What were
you I know
that but I've just decided I'm going to look at something I
find more interesting, which is the John Williams is shadow
government statistics. Ah, yes,
this is the one that stats.com We have discussed this
previously, this is a good site to go to, okay, Shadow stats
problem
is, my problem is is that around, and it's getting worse,
but around looks like right after Obama got in, the
government numbers started to trend down and the shot at this
for the first time. By the way, there's three numbers, he's got
the you three, which is the one that you've that's official at
7.8. Now, the U six, which is the old calculation, and shadow
stats, this d s number which is based on the way it would have
been calculated, like during the Depression, yeah, and that's the
blue line. That's the blue line, right. And the lines are always
parallel, they were just off by you know, each one was off by
about two and a half percent of the you three was always doing a
half percent lessers or, or maybe up to 5% less than the old
you six, which they don't talk about anymore. And that was
about 4% less than the SGS number. And they've always been
in like an apparel though. It's like you know, those those chalk
things that you use, you put the chalk in a thing in a little
holder, and then you can make a straight three lines that are
together and you can move them up and down. Yes, yes. I
remember those might shock days. Yeah. Nobody knows
what I'm talking about. Anyway, so they said when Obama got in,
they split them for the first time that I've ever seen the SGS
numbers were going one way while the government numbers were
going the other causing a huge gap. Right now the true
unemployment rate, which I believe is the SGS number.
Shadow Government stats is just around 24%. Yeah. That's That's
how many people were unemployed. And if people you've gone hang
around, just about a quarter of the public is unemployed. So
that's what 80 million people.
Yeah. Yeah. So okay, that's what the numbers
that's so that's what your entire theory is based on what's
on our website. You crackpot? Yeah, apparently. Well, that is
what we have been following. And so what is this guy, John
Williams. Is he a Nobel Laureate?
Oh, he's just some statistical nut. Okay. I know that I never
met him. He has no credit. I should, I should go out of my
way to meet him because I believe he's in San Francisco. I
think I'll do that. But whatever the case is, I just imagine him
to have one of those visors. That's that's kind of a clear
green. And this is why after a meeting was fine is different,
but I imagined him to be sitting around going, that's not right.
He's probably wears a polo and drives a Corvette. He could be
with a Rolex
Want to do is one of the two
anyway, mine the gap, John C. Dvorak says, Be careful of that
gap. It is pretty amazing when you see the chart. I mean, you
can look at at shadow stats.com. Right on the homepage, you click
on that chart, the red gray and blue chart and in begins and you
look at it, it's like, wow, all right. And you can you can
actually change. I think you can download his data, right? And
you can do stuff with it.
He has this really great website, and the newsletter is
even better. So people want to subscribe to it
anyway. So of course, but this is obviously the October
surprise. And this some surprise, and this is the well,
it's it's been quite amazing. I think this is the this is the
exact same number that the what was Bush is worse, right? George
W. I think that the 7.8 or 7.9. It was somewhere in that around
that region. But it's it's perfectly like oh, you know, so
now this is down and I would call it some I would definitely
call it a
people don't want to talk about the gasoline prices when Obama
got it was a buck 86 Well, so
this, of course, I believe is the counterpunch to we get the
All right, so you suck that to debate. Oh, yeah. Watch this.
Watch the job numbers. Oh, yeah, watch the gas prices
lay reports. The statewide average is a record high for 61.
It's well above that in many metropolitan areas. And at some
stations far above that.
I got gas yesterday at 469. And today I saw this and 569 says
no, I'm not gonna get it.
In San Francisco, the average is 469 a gallon. The lack of buyers
at a station charging 509 shows drivers do have their limits.
The fast rising prices are linked to a string of supply
disruptions, beginning with a huge fire at a San Francisco
area Chevron refinery in August. On Monday, a power failure shut
down an Exxon Mobil refinery in Southern California. And a crude
oil pipeline in the state is also out of service. California
pollution rules require a gasoline blend that isn't
readily available from refineries outside the state and
there's
nothing else I can say except so there's there's a couple other
things going on in the oil business but maybe we just stick
with California for a moment then I can talk because it seems
like the new thing is we need to get prices up so let's start a
fire. We've got to fire a TNK BP in in the Russia Saratov oil.
We've got a broken stuff and fire in Texas. It's just like,
hey, we need prices to go up like the fire. Like the fire
breaks out and break the pump. And this is Is this just very
typical for California or is this possibly a reverse October
surprise, where the oil cabal jumps in? And then because the
price is literally went up 50 cents in a week per gallon? In
California, which of course is President Obama's big hometown.
Well, first of all, no one is going to set a fire at a
refinery as some sort of a Ruess.
Well why do you say that?
These things are extremely dangerous those refineries
anything possibility to get out of control blow in the thing to
Scott sky Hi. Hey man. Wait
We're talking about the presidency of America I think I
don't put anything past people like that.
Well why would the President want the gas prices to go up?
No, no no no no no I'm talking about the Republicans wanting
the gas prices to go up Republicans
are incompetent so anyway, let's just go with the
with the they got matches I mean, I don't know
the distributors who set the prices and did this is i I'm not
absolutely sure of it. But I don't think the California blend
is that different than any other blend in the US I think that's a
bull crap argument. The air pollution the blends of
petroleum products gasoline in particular have been normalized
I think throughout the country no reason to where they were in
other words what you're putting in your car and Connecticut as
junk I don't think so.
So I think that's bull crap.
What do you think this is just I don't know. I mean, I think just
rigged just rigged there's no reason it didn't they blame it
on me. Oh, oh, pipeline pump went down. Oh, guys gotta go up.
10 cents.
Okay, so then it but it's the same thing. So whatever's going
on. They blame it on that and then maybe who knows about the
fire? I haven't looked at the fire. I mean, it was just like
some wood burning over there. You know, looks like a lot of
smoke. You know what? It's like a real fire. So but you're
saying the same thing. You're saying it's bullcrap. It's set
up and that just raising the prices because they can and I'm
saying they're raising the prices because they can only I'm
saying maybe they lit the fire so they could say they could
rise raise the prices. It's the same thing.
Well, yes. Have your premises questionable.
Oh, well in Okay. Well, they gotta blame it on something
they're blaming on the fire.
Well, they're blaming you did joke Here's is that when the
fire took place around here? ago I, yeah, months and months ago
and by the way I could I can see the refinery from the hilltop.
So I missed right there. I take pictures of it once in a while
there's a refinery is it still burned? It wasn't that bad. It
wasn't. The thing wasn't burned to the ground. Let's put it that
way. But they immediately jacked up prices the next day by 15
cents.
Good. That's what you get for living there.
You know, well, is it it's a big scam. Well, maybe
this has something to do with it. Because there's a whole
bunch of things going on at the same time in California and Los
Angeles in particular is of course, a very strange place for
people to live. They don't even have their their truck their own
water and then like pump the water over a hill over a
mountain is like pumped up. 2008 Drain
the Owens Valley, right. turned it into a desert used to be one
of the great agricultural growing areas, right? Because
they have all this natural water, right? They sucked all
the water out of the Owens valleys in the movie and
Chinatown discusses some of this. And they gave it all to
LA. So the Owens Valley is I get the vast wasteland. It's it's
actually depressing when you fly over it right.
But if something happened to that infrastructure to the, to
the pumps in the pipeline, then la would essentially run out of
water. Yeah, quick, right. So you see how quick they
apparently ran out of gas. Because whether it's just prices
or not, I mean, there are pumps that are closed, because they
can't afford the gas, they can't afford to sell the gas. Right.
So maybe this ties right into this bill. That, let me just
bring this up for a second here. House Resolution 6566 introduced
September 28 2012. Known as the EAD. This isn't a meant to amend
the Homeland Security Act of 2002. To require the
Administrator of the Federal Emergency Management Agency, we
know that as FEMA, to provide guidance and coordination for
mass fatality planning, and for other purposes. Very short,
Bill, John, but I think we should just read through this so
people know what is being amended and then we can question
why. Okay, okay, here we go. findings, Congress finds the
following. Emergency Preparedness often plans for how
to prepare and provide for survivors of a natural disaster
act of terrorism or other manmade disaster, but fails to
plan for how to prepare for and respond to mass fatalities that
result from such an incident. I mean, you know, when I'm sitting
at home, I'm thinking we need to know if I'm, if I'm, if I think
that Congress, like you know, I think we should have a bill
about what happens with all the people die all the dead people
from terrorism, natural disaster or other manmade disaster. So
section three of this bill calls for preparedness for mass
fatalities resulting from a natural disaster act of
terrorism or other manmade disaster. The administrator
shall provide guidance to coordinate with appropriate
individuals, including representatives from different
communities, private sector, businesses, nonprofit
organizations, and religious organizations to prepare for and
respond to a natural disaster act of terrorism or the manmade
disaster that results in mass fatalities. Up is a time to
celebrate Come on, what is this about?
Yeah, yeah, I know people's with a bunch of people send us that.
Did you read it? Oh,
did you did you read it?
Yeah, I did. I just said this is weird. Yeah, I think it came in
it came in as the all issued by FEMA camps. You know that
bullshit. No, no, no, no, no, no,
this is not about FEMA camps. I don't think it's FEMA camps.
It's just, we need to prepare for the mass fatalities and
like, well, where's that coming?
I don't know. Suddenly, somebody
knows some we don't know. Exactly. So as you see this
thing that came talking about that crazy stuff. Did you see
the theme? Let me dig this up. Wow. Did you see the thing about
no. Oh, nevermind.
This is great. No,
I did. Yeah. This is great show we do here.
What are you talking about?
About the book that's coming out? That's duction documents.
So Obama as being gay?
No, I have not heard about this
was arranged marriage between him and Michelle. It was put
together by Reverend Wright. Well,
this is this is just this is not news. This is like Old
conspiracy theory.
Yeah and right and that Michelle Obama actually spent most of her
time living with the Jesse Jackson house. Yeah,
when she was supposed to marry Jesse Jackson Jr. But because
he's insane. In fact, he's in the psycho Ward right now. He
couldn't become the next president because that well,
that's what the book claims is. That was the plan. Yeah, that
book. Oh, you don't actually give that any credence Do you?
Know, I just think it's hilarious. Yeah.
Well, you know, just google the name Larry Sinclair. That's the
only guy you need to hear from. You've never consulted a book of
knowledge about Larry Sinclair.
Ah, I think a long time ago when we first started talking about
it. Yeah,
yeah. Yeah. So I'm not even just Google that it doesn't really
matter. It doesn't really matter. It's yeah. That I don't
think that book will really see the light of day unlike however,
this is quite interesting in the ongoing scam pain for the most
important to spot in, in our government, the new bin Laden
movie.
Now, of course, we had the
the one that the Pentagon essentially helped produce, and
by the same people did The Hurt Locker and they said, Oh, well,
you know, we don't want to Oh, we don't want to be confused
with the, you know, see be seen as trying to do anything to help
the President get elected. We're not going to show that movie
until after the election. But now, Harvey Weinstein is out and
helping the President
this movie is called SEAL Team Six, the raid on Osama bin
Laden. It's what the NatGeo network calls the first fact
based film.
First of all, Nat Geo is, I guess, CNN code for National
Geographic. And apparently, it's the first fact base film The
first Nat Geo. Yeah, that's how you gotta say it. Nat Geo
everybody. Nat Geo. I guess saying National Geographic takes
up too many words. And you can't put it enough commercials,
though. Nat Geo, but it's the first fact base film they're
going to put on the air is ever air never, ever the first facts
ever on Nat Geo.
Like you alluded to what has everyone paying attention to
this is that it's a movie distributed by The Weinstein
Company and Harvey Weinstein is a well known President Obama
fundraiser and supporter here in Hollywood. Now, this is only
airing on television on Sunday, November 4, but that's just 48
hours before election day. Now, there is a similar movie, Randy
that dramatized is the bin Laden raid in that movie zero, dark
30. This has been in production for several months, this movie
has been criticized in some circles as being what people are
calling propaganda for the Obama administration. So the
filmmakers, I love
propaganda, like that's, that's not true propaganda. Ridiculous,
that movie decided, here's what we're going to do, we're going
to move the release of this movie until after the election.
But Randy, you know, this movie on the Nat Geo network seems to
have come out of nowhere and landed a TV slot. And you know,
what the Weinstein backing? They had to figure that this was
going to raise a lot of questions, especially right
before the election.
So you know, a lot of people look at this, though, and they
think, well, this could be just one really long campaign at the
end. Yeah. You know, and that's what I'm sure the Romney
campaign and the Republicans are saying We don't like this
because it could it very well could. But here's the thing. It
is on the
this is this is a new station. Well, I'm sure that's what dem
Republicans and Romney campaign will say it could it could been
at geo network so it's not like it's a theatrical release. It's
not like it's on a major network. It is on a cable
channel, a little cable channel, cable, Harvey Weinstein's
backing, you can bet that it is gonna get a lot of publicity,
like we're doing right here. I mean, the incestuous pneus of
this blows me away. Like, no one's gonna watch it, because
you know, it's just a little, little, little itty bitty cable
chat on that geo. But of course, if we talk about it enough,
people might go and watch it. And oh, yeah, I mean, that might
be a political campaign, then Republicans might say that. And
this brings me to something that happened to us here in
Washington DC, that warrants some conversation. We were
propagandized, and it was good. I have to say
hold on a second. What was Nikki What do you do it?
Somehow Ms. Mickey is embedded in a feeling well, and then all
sudden, she just turned on the stream. So so so this, of
course, is propaganda, obviously what she wouldn't have more
bandwidth at the house. I know I tried to tell her it's not The
house into the hotel room. So, so yeah, so this NatGeo
documentary by The Weinstein, by Harvey Weinstein is of course
propaganda. Now, here's what happened. We are in DC. And
remember I told you about Wendell Potter who I met in
Chicago when I was speaking at the cusp conference. He's the
whistleblower who used to be the Head of Communications for
Cigna. And he wrote the book deadly spin, which is a big
inspiration for a lot of the pharmaceutical or Big Pharma
research work that I've done that we've discussed on the show
you remember the guy? Yep. Okay. So he's in town. And he says,
Hey, cool. Yeah. He says, Hey, let me take you guys out to
lunch. And, ya know, very nice and Windows. thing is you just
turned 61. He used to be a reporter in DC a long time ago.
And then he became the head of corporate communications. Then
he blew the whistle on Cigna wrote this book about that,
basically, he calls it the sickness industry instead of the
health industry, and they just want to make you keep you coming
back for treatment and be sick and not actually cure you.
That's, that's it. You don't have to read the book. It's all
done. I can talk about at a cocktail parties. So he says,
you know, there's so firstly, it takes us out to lunch. And then
he takes us to the Press Club, which is kind of a treat,
because he's still a member of the Press Club. You know, the
Press Club. Yes, I
know, the National Press Club. Yeah, but the one in Washington
DC. Yeah.
Have you ever been there? No. Oh, so it's kind of cool. So you
know, he takes us up to the bar, and it kind of oozes of all the
old drunk douchebags who are hanging out there. And there's
one or two like asleep in the corner snoring, but it is
literally that, you know, the brown leather chairs, the bar
and the it's a club. It's a club. Yeah, I'm like, Hey, and
Mickey had her camera. And like three people said, you got a
picture here. Just holding on to my camera, man. I'm not like
doing you're just like, No, you can't date pictures. Photography
forbidden up here at the Press Club. Whatever. Yeah, that would
be right. Yeah. Because they're all drunk. And then he says, you
know, hey, I'm here in DC, because they're screening a
movie that I that I was interviewed for. And would you
like to come tonight? And the movie is called Escape fire.
Have you heard of this? Because it just came out this week.
Okay. So escape fire is it turns out so we go to this so called
independent movie theater. And it's the West End theatre. And
then the flyers right there. It's called Escape fire, a film
by Matthew Hyneman. And Susan Franchi, a must see, says Andy
Kaufman of The Village Voice. And this is the first thing that
tipped me off An Inconvenient Truth for the health care
debate. I'm like, Oh, okay. So so then we're in this in this
movie theaters, like maybe 80 seats. And, and we're sitting
there and it's it's literally a digital projector with a screen
on the wall. But it's, you know, it's a property of black that
often has air conditioning. But it you know, it's probably no,
it's about you probably have a bigger projection screen at
home. And they start off with some trailers and then coming
soon to this theater is arbitrage that's the Richard
Gere movie. I'm like, what, this is not an ad. This is an
independent theater, how come they're running that. So I had
to put this all together later on once we got home because it
took me quite a while to figure it all out. So you'll find out
that roadside attractions, which is distributing this escape fire
movie, which is supposed to be the small independent movie,
this documentary, is being distributed by roadside
attractions, who also distribute the new Richard Gere movie
arbitrage, which is a Weinstein Company. So just to put that
into your head, so this movie is really good. There's a whole
bunch of storylines in it, and it's showing you how the
healthcare industry is really just trying to keep you sick,
get you on pharmaceuticals. There's a lot there's a soldier
in there, Sergeant Yates, which is I have not been able to track
this guy down, interestingly enough. And you know, somehow
they the documentary crew gets on a C 130. This guy is coming
back from Afghanistan. He had a platoon of 23 only eight cam
came back down off the mountain the guys on plenty on like 100
Different psychotropic drugs. And he goes to the Cleveland
Clinic and he eventually learns how to get off all of wean
himself off all of the drugs. So through a combination of yoga,
meditation, and some acupuncture. Now, what's
interesting is I have not seen this Sergeant Yates interviewed
anywhere can't find him. A sergeant ah, is also a very
funny character on Family Guy, which always like makes me
suspicious when they choose a name like that. So there's just
a lot of good things, but it doesn't really the movie doesn't
really go anywhere. It felt like it was mis edited. And the whole
idea of the title escaped fire as it starts off and says, you
know, when when forest fires when they first discover you
could create an escape fire by lighting a fire to protect
yourself so you can get away. You know, that was a revolution
in. In firefighting, we need the same thing in healthcare, we
need to light some fires to change the healthcare industry.
And, you know, there's the act even showed Obama sitting there
with some of the insurance companies, you know, and by the
way,
the interrupt, yeah, Sergeant Yates is not on family guy. He's
on South Park.
Oh, so I'm sorry, South Park, thank you. Even better, even
funnier. So I can't find an interview with this guy. And he
would be prime of course to interview I've seen interviews
with the with the filmmaker. So then then, and I'm sitting next
to these two women, and I can affect it already feel an air of
something. I don't know what it is. But then the movie ends, and
then they do a q&a. I do a q&a with, with a couple people in
the audience when Wendell was one of them. And by the way they
do, Wendell, any justice they had, you know, he talks about
what he had done, but they really didn't. And I know, I
know, his his stick by now. And you know, he there's a he has a
whole bunch of solutions that he thinks is, you know, as a way to
fix this, and that doesn't come out. And there's no real clear
explanation as to what the escape fire for our health care
industry is, which is obviously, based on volume not based on
curing people. So you know, the more patients you can run
through the system, that's how everyone makes more money,
instead of making more money for how many more for people being
cured. And then they hand out a sheet. So these people get up on
stage. Three of them are not in the movie, or have nothing to do
with the movie. And it's a woman from the NAACP, who has who does
the not in the movie at all. There is a the representative
congresswoman from the District of Columbia, I didn't even know
they were allowed to have one. But apparently District of
Columbia does have representation only she can't
vote. I didn't know this. Puerto Rico does too. In fact, it's
exactly the same rights as Puerto Rico. Eleanor Holmes
Norton. So she's, she's a blowhard. Oh, let me tell you,
windows up there, and then two doctors, and they hand out the
sheet doctors for America. And I'm like looking at this. And
it's a DRS for america.org. You can go to the website. It's
located at 1333 H Street, Northwest 10th floor in
Washington, DC. I'll do the work for you, John, because I've
learned this from you, you Google that that also happens to
be the same floor where the Center for American Progress is
located. There it is. Yep. And this whole sheet is about the
ACA. Are you familiar with the term ACA? No, it is the
shorthand version. It stands for Affordable Care Act, i e, the
Affordable Health Care Act. And now I'm like, wait a minute. And
then you know, there's people are asking really good
questions, and they're answering it all the same way. While the
Republicans are doing the wrong thing. And we can't elect
Romney. They even had a shill in the audience. A woman stood up
who had been sitting next to this Ed this Horton woman.
Norton, what's her name? Norton Holmes, Holmes Norton. She'd
been sitting next to her though, to introduce the whole movie,
she stands up. Whoa, did you ever think that down the debate
that Governor Romney was insane? And and she asked the question
to Wendell, and I could see Wendell go like, I don't think I
should answer that. Because I don't want to politicize
anything here. So the whole movie has been hijacked into a
propaganda to essentially saying, hey, the Affordable Care
Act ain't great. But we cannot have the Republicans win and
Romney win. It's just it blew my mind that that was happening.
And then I see Ebert tweeting about how great the movie is,
and all these douchebags like, Oh, this is a great movie. It's
not a great movie. It has in me, I would love to speak to the
maker of the movie, I believe they even edited the movie, so
that the true because there is some good stuff in it. The true
outcome is not in there. And I just saw you know, these
douchebags and who were talking about, I did some research on
Eleanor, Eleanor Holmes Norton. And I tried to find the original
audio I couldn't I found an NPR report the beginning of an NPR
report for March 30. This year, just listen to what a douchebag
This is
from WBEZ. Chicago is This American Life distributed by
Public Radio International, and today we have a big big story of
money and politics that begins with a humble voice now,
if this is Elena Norton, Konsolen Eleanor Holmes Norton.
I noticed that you have good than to other colleagues on the
Transportation and Infrastructure Committee. I am a
senior member of 20 year veteran.
This is voice now that Eleanor Holmes Norton, the Democratic
Congresswoman from Washington, DC left for lobbyists in the
fall of 2010. We don't know who the lobbyist is, but from the
voicemail, we can infer that he represents a contractor who's
working on the new homeland security complex being built in
Washington, DC, a complex that Eleanor Holmes Norton at the
time had a lot of power over
you. And I'm handling the largest economic development
project in the United States. Now the Homeland Security
compound of three buildings being built on the old St.
Elizabeth's Hospital site,
as you're pointing out that she is in charge of the project that
he cares about. He gets the point.
I was, frankly, surprised to see that we don't have a record so
far as I can tell you're having given to me despite my long and
deep work, essentially, in your sector, I'm simply candidly
calling to ask for contribution. I'm asking you to give decision
to Eleanor Holmes Norton to watch 706
She's so she's gotten a lot, which is, you know, I'm really
important. I'm in charge of all this crap. And I just, it's
amazing. I've been looking at the list. Your name? What? Yes.
What is your name? I don't see it. Maybe you use a different
name. Where's my money? Yeah.
I haven't seen you send me money. That's literally what she
says. So this douchebag is up there misusing this movie. And
I'm sure this is happening everywhere. With doctors for
america.org. And what's this other one? They got patients
over politics.org. And, and it's your and your well? Oh, no, I'm
not surprised if that's your question.
Yes. Done by his corruption.
What I'm stunned by is that I, it took me until that evening,
and we had dinner with Wendell. And we were reviewing I'm like,
this went nowhere. This he says yeah, and that was kind of
weird. I could see him piecing it together to you know, I could
see we just kind of like, it took us a while to figure it
out. And I'm like, Cool. Who Flew you in? Wendell? He said,
cuz I'm like, what documentary has can just fly people in to DC
and put them up for a couple days. Now and
man, what? who flew him in?
Oh, the what's it called the Center for American Progress. I
didn't know this until after I've done all the research and I
asked like, oh, okay, well, wha so and it's this whole this
move, which I think was probably really a good documentary.
Although now now that I can't find this Sergeant Yates
anywhere. And when you see I mean, how would the military
ever allow a documentary crew to get on a C 130 that's flying
wounded guys and guys with PTSD from Afghanistan to Germany or
that's the first stop and allow them free unfettered access to
these kids which are just completely messed up. I
questioned that now. And now that this guy just seems you
know, it's a great story but you know, where how come we're not
interviewing him? How come he's not out in the forefront talking
about it? And I see that interview with the with the with
the guy who made the documentary what's his name? Matthew
Heineman he looks remorseful and just all these really Oh yeah.
Oh yeah, he just looks remorseful because his being his
movie got hijacked and I think oh up did go up. No, hide No,
not co opted. This is a hijack. So anyway, so go see the movie.
And tell me if there's flyers or anything else that is being
handed out when you see it. That's what I'd like to know. If
this and because it has big distribution. This is not an
independent, little, little documentary. This is distributed
by Weinstein. This is gurbles is smiling. Sounds good? Yeah.
Anyway, so that was my that was my kudos to them. Yeah, I mean,
give them a good job. Good job. Eleanor Holmes Norton. Huge
douche bag.
Stag. I like her. Yeah, it is funny. Slowly illegal. I think
it's your roster. They should give her they should. She's
horrible. That woman I've heard talked to way too often on C
span. It's just like, Ah, just a horrible person.
And she also well, you know what? So I think Breitbart
remember him the guy who got killed. We mysteriously died.
I'm sorry, after drinking a glass of wine. So he was the one
that got this voicemail. And, and so I was just reading
through some of the history work on stuff because this only
happened in March. And, you know, all the news reports are
like, you know, he's he's going after a black woman to like,
really,
really? He's killing up job. Yeah.
And she does have quite you know, she has a history in the
civil rights movement and everything. So she's got all
that but, you know, let's just overlook the fact that she
hadn't filed taxes for seven years and then had to pay an $80
fine and penalty when she got nailed for it. And then this
thing that I just thought we should try that John would just
be like, yeah, hi, BB a
gin leg irons. But Hi, this is Adam. Crap by the side of the
road. And
no, no, no, no, no, no. For the newsletter. This is the
newsletter. Hi, this is the no agenda show. We are just looking
at our list. And we just we just know it's funny. Maybe your
name's not on it. And maybe you just use the different Pay Pal
name or something we can't seem to find your your you should
just have you sent us
actually legally do that. But when you're a member of
Congress, you can't do that. Well, apparently she did extort
of lobbyists like that.
Apparently, this everyone does this, and that's why it's not
reported on. And she did it from a campaign cell phone, so it's
okay. Oh, that's not right. Da. But did you hear about the
story? No. No. And I'm I'm surprised. Well, if so that's
the only part of the NPR story, Dan and good, you know, then
they kind of gloss over and they go into all this, you know,
people saying Oh, yeah, you know, Congress is that instead
of this woman being you know, thrown Yeah, thrown in irons,
essentially. So I knew what I could feel it my bullshit. Oh,
ometer was tingling. my spidey sense was just going off and
like there's something in this room. That's wrong, Parker.
Yeah. So,
so I gotta go. Okay. I've got a couple of clips that are worth
listening to that are reflective of the distraction of the week.
Hmm. Which is the
over analysis of Obama not giving a crap budget debates
and, and tanking. Yeah. One is a dive, I thought the most
creative excuse for Obama. Oh, Al Gore. Did you hear that one?
Let's play it because I have something to say. I had that
clip, too. I have something to say about it.
Obama arrived in Denver at 2pm. Today, just a few hours before
the debate started. Romney did his debate prep in Denver. When
you go to 5000 feet. Exactly. And you only have a few hours to
adjust. That's interesting. I don't know maybe training and
Alconite. Can I say that? To me, just real quick. I just came
from LA the same day. You know what I did? I drank two cups of
coffee before coming out here.
Energy it's really different. The
first time I ever did stand up in Denver, I had the same exact
effect. I flew in that day. And when your lungs aren't
acclimated to that kind of bear. Yeah, it makes you drawn. It
makes you interesting. President had an off night.
Can I say something about this?
Yeah, I have something to say about it too. But go on. Well,
first
of all, when you are flying in your Air Force One. The actual
cabin pressure is set at about 8000 feet. So during your flight
and I Did he fly from Washington, I don't know if you
flew it flew from the 80s.
Who knows who's wasting the taxpayers money is all I know.
So this is not like all of a sudden he's up there the Mile
High City. It's like we did a show from from Denver. Did I
suck any more than usual? Now, you know, I've
been to Denver a lot. And I've been there the spur of the
moment. I've never had any of these effects. I played tennis
once done the same day I arrived with somebody and I didn't even
notice that it was I didn't even think about it and didn't bother
me. Now if you're an 11 or 12,000 feet, which I've been
had, like tellurite I think is 11 or 12,000 feet. You get a
little winded, but even there you don't get
pooped. I mean, I've played croquet at 5000 feet and had no
issues at all. Well, maybe maybe he's still smoking.
Ah, right. That may
be it. Yeah, maybe that maybe that's what made that actually
made me but they won't bring that up
now. But maybe that's what that thing. Did you see the video
with one of our producers. I sewed the video of the the
battery pack.
No, I did not see it wasn't sent a copy of me. I was no
no, I tweeted it. I tweeted a screen capture of it. Maybe it
was just a pack of smokes. Yeah, you said
that was a joke you used last time. I know. But it's true now
that you'd have Washington DC. It's got your dinghy.
Maybe it's That's true,
bro okay all right so anyway so I got I just thought that that
was the lamest possible thing to dream of Al Gore because no one
saw it but you know a few people because I already did that
I saw it and that chunk guy what a sellout. Chunk yeah sell out
so just as just as something off the wall here's the clip where I
think shouldn't be the Clip of the Day. Yeah which is Al
Sharpton one
with all the rest behind it. Okay, as we've
been saying last night, Mitt Romney did a real job on the
truth. But then he got really low. He went after big bird
that is what that is the Al Sharpton show in a nutshell.
I'll give him credit for that day while I was really fun isn't
expecting it.
Now you deserve it. I bet you got a follow up for it.
Anyway you wonder why the allergy I just have the other Al
Sharpton clip is is out just for people who want to hear
something. This is what passes for a a show on MSNBC if you can
understand a word he says the clip is just simple. It's Al
Sharpton is an idiot.
Finally tonight, a criminal investigation is underway in
Florida. The Florida Department of Law Enforcement is probing a
Republican voter registration firm that was hired by the
Republican National Committee. We reported about strategic
allied consulting to firms accused of registering dead
people as GOP voters of submitting registrations with
fake addresses and of having similar looking signatures on
voter forms the firm's run by Nathan Spruill. In the past,
he's been investigated for tricking Democrats into
registering as Republicans and secretly re registering
Democrats as Republicans and shredding democratic
registration form. Convicted but knowing this, the RNC still
hired him to run voter registration to
this is a typical case of when a writer and a host are separated
by a concrete wall. And I've seen this happens on television,
when someone who is writing is not writing for the person who
is reading. And Sharpton is right. He has no idea what he is
saying. He has literally has no idea. No real contract for that.
The got you, right. Oh,
so he goes on. And he says he's accused of this and accused of
that he's never been found guilty of anything. But despite
that, the Republicans keep him on what, what kind of what does
that what does that mean? The guy is innocent of wrongdoing,
apparently, because I guess he's never been found guilty. But
despite the fact that he's innocent, they keep him on. Is
that what he's saying? That's what he's saying.
It's awesome, isn't it?
The guy is an idiot. And the fact that MSNBC keeps him on on
this show is astonishing. What is what pictures does he have to
talk about?
Who knows Unbelievable. Unbelievable. Yeah.
Well, I'm, the more I think about it. I mean, the whole big
bird the whole set, by the way, how come no one is talking with
with this comment about, you know, the funding for PBS? Does
anyone ever watch PBS? Does anyone notice that they have? I
don't know, commercials every 15 minutes. They don't need
Congress's funding. It's a commercial outfit.
Right? It's a commercial outfit. And even so they'll tell you
themselves at the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. I think
the government provides less than 10% of their funding or
some app it's a small number. So to pull the number to pull that
out and let more of Arthur Davis vining and and Bill Melinda
Gates and all these other people pony up more what's wrong with
that?
Yeah. Now let the
above the Burlington Northern people give more money so they
don't talk about trains
so some interesting things happening in Europe and Angola
they wait before you but wait, wait before you go there. I do
have to do one more clip about this. Oh, because I want you to
tell me if you catch your catch the gap. It's kind of a gaffe
about again, this is another rant about raw Obama's screwing
up. This is from Carvel Unless your mouth you can't understand
a word he says but CBN catch this little bit in here
he's from Louisiana
you know I've had I had one oh impression I did everything I
could not to reach it but I had to reach it and it look like
Romney wanted to beat out in credit Obama didn't want to be
that he seemed like he was happy to be there and vague gave you
the impression that this whole thing was kind of a lot of
trouble I don't know. And this cannot you know go at now I do
not know what we don't know is again we got to do like we said
we got to think of what the judges think. The judges Yeah.
What is America
all right. All right. I'm sorry. I take it back. This is the Clip
of the Day. Oh, man. Oh, let me get this jingle rescinded. Oh,
my God. We got to see what the judges the judges. What do you
think we have Britney Spears and well, I didn't like it when you
did my song. Oh my goodness. That's funny.
Wow. Oh, man. What a douche.
Judges email his wife sits on his head. What's her name? Yeah.
Marilee. Madeline
Maitland. Matt lives. Yes. She's just funny because their
politics are just the opposite. But
well, that's their stick. Yeah, please. That's the moneymakers.
Yeah. Yeah. And by the way, they do a fine job with that. You
know, you don't you don't see us sitting there raking in the
dough, talking about judges, judges. And let me just let me
just hit Europe for a second here. Yeah, a couple things. So
we had first of all, Athens is crazy what's going on in Greece?
We have angular Merkel. She's visiting, she will be visiting.
They're going to bring out 7000 additional police agents for her
visit. There. I don't even know why she's 7000. Yes. I don't
know why she's going she must be insane to want to go there.
Because she's nuts. They look crazy. They literally put
pictures of her in a Nazi uniform in the newspaper. I
can't believe that she's going there. But yeah, she's going
she's gonna go to say hi go check it out. She was to see see
how it's going on down there in the in the lower the lower
portion of her empire. And but there's this thing called love
guards list. Now this is a very poorly reported if at all, here
in just in general. And so here's what I understand that
Christine Lagarde when she was still Finance Minister to
France, received a list of about 2000 politicians, mainly Greek,
but also German politicians who had received kickbacks, and had
put a an aggregate of 1.5 billion euros into Swiss
accounts in an HSBC branch in in Geneva, to be exact 1991 public
and political figures were on this list. And she had given
this list to the prime minister of Greece. And so everyone's
freaking out, because, you know, where's the list? And
apparently, the list was, you know, that was on a CD, and then
it was stolen. And so the whole country is freaking out. But not
just Greece, but in Germany as well. So it's kind of like some
big blackmail scandal about the guards list. And this is a it's
supposed to have names from political media circles. And
everyone's just kind of waiting for something to start leaking
out. Or there's there's some huge scandal going on that and
it's very hard to understand exactly what is happening, but
there's the guards list. And we're just what I'm waiting to
see what names will be on this because it doesn't just have to
be Greek politicians. So amongst all this angula is going to
visit with her 7000 troops her Sturm sternbach fewer troops and
we shall see what how this correlates but I'm this is this
is crazy. I'm thinking this is not unrelated. I don't think
she's going down to get herself a copy of the list or something
like that. 7000
We thought Obama's attempts were expensive now.
Now she's out of control. Meanwhile, Spain, very upset.
Very, very upset with Mitt Romney. You recall that he said
Spain spends 42% of their total economy on government. We're now
spending 42% of our economy on government. I don't want to go
down the path of Spain. Yeah, so he's not welcome in Marbella
anymore. Yeah, that's bad. But the best one, and I think you
received this email, and then I saw the video. And of course,
you can watch the video this. There's no usable audio for the
show. But it looks and we got this from our producer, Nelson
Ferreira. And it looks like Portugal has has given up they
are a country in distress. In fact, I think maybe I had maybe
I do have the report. This might actually be pretty funny. Let me
see. Euro land Euro land don't have a Euro land clip somewhere.
I guess I don't. So they had the October 5 Was their National
Republic Day, which is a holiday. And there were a couple
things different this year. First of all, they announced
that the holiday will be abolished next year. Remember,
this is a national holiday. So on the holidays, and when we're
not going to do it next year. The Prime Minister was not at
the ceremony. The ceremony was closed to the public for the
first time ever and and here's the best part and I wish I had
that. I thought I had a video that they hoisted the flag
upside down which of course is the International signal for
distress.
Right That's right. When you flip put the flag upside down.
Yeah,
that means you're in debt means you're in distress. And so they
always had the flag upside down. And it's like this is not a
mistake people this is a real signal. We have to go into
Portugal and help our brothers and sisters. They're in trouble
Well, we got a report which I'm going to put most of it in the
next newsletter from Garcia in Spain. Okay, good. And he had a
couple of corrections he wanted to make sure we knew about he
first of all he disagreed he explains the demonstrations and
how they relate to the public. But he did make one thing he
stopped he started with this is one thing this is the BBC report
that we ran on the railway workers on strike Yeah, just
read the sentence here. This will be in the newsletter. The
protests against the privatization of the railways
are something barely talked about here. What is first on the
clip you play
and he's he lives in Spain
in Madrid
Wait a minute. So wait a minute. So what's the angle then? What's
the BBC is full of crap is and nothing was it was a distraction
was a distraction story. Well, maybe just from getting to the
point.
Well, could it be a distraction? Or is it related to their own
train problems? Because they've had all kinds of shit with their
train that could be yellow just can't be as bad as it is here.
Yeah. All right. So that's what I'm thinking it was. That makes
sense.
Yeah, Wayne he goes on with some other very interesting
deconstructions which I'll put into next week's newsletter
great. It'll be very interesting. A lot of good
stuff. Well, I have my own little deconstruction not hard
to do but of course I just said I'll I'll sign them off though.
What's going on around here mainly chaos and protests.
Yeah, there you go. And oh service for you. In Spain. I
understand that in Spain and in Portugal if you go there on
vacation that that you you don't want to show up with a credit
card in the restaurant they want cash
because of the was it don't
send your blankets or your money or your water just we just want
cash. Exactly.
We just need cash. I know a lot of people want to send blankets
or water just send your cash.
So we were wondering of course you know how what is going on
with the seats on American Airlines? We obviously know that
there's a union dispute going on but no no American Airlines has
come up with the answer I'm sure you were sent many copies of
this John one of the most emailed stories of the week. It
is because of soda and other gunk that has fallen on the
floor and has loosened the the actual bolting of the chairs
through the fuselage so I think Coca Cola should now be on the
on the banned list of terrorists substances because you know you
can bring a whole plane down. It starts coming
apart. You may be missing the real point of that of that
story. Okay. Another excuse not to serve anything by the cheap
bastards that run American Airlines. So no, I
Well, that was going to be my follow up is beat you to it.
I stepped on it. That's okay. That's alright. Welcome to my
world. Yeah,
but it's but that's exactly it. Like I'm sorry, we can't serve
you any fizzy drinks anymore. Would you like a cup of water?
Is anybody flying those that curiosity them and? Right? It's
really it's just terrible.
Flying is just bogus when the hell wants to fly anymore?
So I've got I have a theory. All right. So I came out of Seattle
to come back here and
tell me how was your experience? Did you opt out?
I generally opt out. Oh, and I found that the Nordics, I think
it's called the northern term. And the first term if you'd look
at this, the whole operation from a distance, on the very,
very far right and in the corner, there is a, a TSA thing
and it and you can get to every gate by going through that one.
There's some ones you can't get to all the gates from. But this
one you can't because it links you to the underground subway
that goes around the airport, it takes you all the different
gates and is way over, it's just and it was dead empty, because
it's so far away from everything else that is like it's
ridiculous. So that the furthest left entrance does not have a
scanner does not have a schedule. It has a magnetometer.
Now I'm beginning to wonder, because Oakland, a has a if you
go into the Southwest terminal to the middle of all the the X
ray machines, the middle aisle, as it worth want to call it that
I has not none of the extra machines just has a
magnetometer, right. So I'm wondering if there's one spot in
every airport for the insiders. Oh, that again, do nothing but
create problems anyway. It's like a wink wink, nudge nudge,
look, we know you're going to come through this airport, we
know you're going to ask for an opt out, we know that you're
going to do that because you're a troublemaker. And we're just
going to take you up our time, we got to find some guy to fill
you up. And we don't like doing that. So if you pay some
attention, idiot, you'll find there's one row you can go down.
It doesn't have the X ray machine, and you can just go
through the magnetometer and that's that.
Well, this is not the case at at Austin. And this is not us.
Every single entrance. There's only two. There's only two.
There's only two Sure, yeah. Yeah, I'm pretty sure.
But then maybe they're worried maybe it's only a California
thing? I don't know,
not in Los Angeles seem to not in Los Angeles.
I use no way you checked all the entrances to LAX. There's too
many of
them. But like, the ones for that I fly on. I mean, so I have
to fly different airlines or
once you're inside the inside the bubble, you can go go into
any one of those things generally. I bet you there's one
at LAX that you
have no. Okay. All right. All right, I'm with you. I'm with
you.
I'm just guessing I could be wrong. Maybe other people that
listen to the show, if they have their airport with one entrance
that has no X ray machine, send us a note and then we'll make a
little database. There are no agenda listeners, and then
they'll know what you know, they don't have to deal with it.
Although, you know, it's always nice to opt out.
Well, I think the idea of just having a passing, I think the
idea of having a no agenda database of these types of
things is great anyway, and I'm going to think about it. Maybe
it's just a wiki. Here we go. For the first time in my life,
I'll agree with you, this is probably a good thing for a
wiki. So it'd be it's called the the premier service. No wonder
we call it premier service and Premier Valet service database.
So we tell you every single airport where you can go to the
premier line with your coach class ticket. And then where you
can opt we don't have to opt out or where they have friendly TSA
agents who fill you up and carry your stuff nicely.
Yeah, we should set that up we were what we should do is look
at our list of URLs that we have a ton of and find one that would
be appropriate and get a hold of the guy who has it and have it
transferred to us. Put a Wiki on it and just let it go. Just cut
it loose.
Hey, that's great. All right. Guess what? I'm not going to do
it. Are you?
Yeah, I'm gonna put to Seattle and Oakland the information in
there.
Oh, no, but I mean, follow through on setting it up.
Oh, well. Oh, well, there's
that. So that basically, you just told me to go through the
list, find the URL contact the person and set up the wiki is I
want to just understood I want to make sure. And they
told me it pick up the cudgel
and then you'll enter Oakland and Seattle. Great now we got to
deal. I'm gonna show you a school by donate to no agenda.
Imagine all the people who could do that. Oh yeah, that'd be fun.

Oh, and we had visitors here Sir Tom and Dane actually St. Nicole

I feel pretty. I was really like really embarrassed about this.
Yeah, I'm sure you were that's just the way it is. Yeah, these
are things that go on on a routine basis. I
know I know. I'm that's why I just said nudge. I didn't make a
big deal out of
it. I'll push it if they're going to use the rings for
something important.
As opposed to letters as opposed to hitting people in the miles
like that's not important. All of a sudden, John Seymour. I
haven't seen that many people hit nein Nein,
police, police. And just a couple things for the vernacular
for those of you who are new to the program. It is hitting
people in the mouth not punching and it is the best podcast in
the universe. Not the greatest because the greatest. It's not
quite the same as the best. Best is better than greatest.
Yeah, they do say greatest a lot.
Yeah, and it's just wrong. It's just wrong.
Oh, no, it doesn't bother me so much. Oh, bothers you. Oh. This
just
in coffee drinkers might want to think about switching to decaf.
According to a nationwide study. People who drink more than three
cups of caffeinated coffee each day could increase their risk of
developing glaucoma. Researchers say compounds in coffee might
increase pressure on the eye and cause glaucoma potentially
leading to vision loss and blindness. Usually, they say
caffeine and tea soda and chocolate does not seem to have
that same effect on my site.
Yeah, and it's not caffeine, is it? No. And it was a meta
analysis that they did, John, I couldn't get the report because
it was you know, you have to pay to get this great report. And it
turns out that when they were when they looked at the results,
women it was only amongst women. Women who had glaucoma in the
family seemed to have an increased risk of getting
glaucoma while drinking coffee. Like are you kidding me? So this
I guess there's a new sanka brand or something Come on. Have
you seen anything yet? Is there a new decaffeinated coffee
that's on the market? There's got to be a campaign coming up?
Yeah, about about decaf. Yeah. Good.
I just want the producers who listen to the show
both do why would you even put this stuff on the news? It's a
commercial dog.
That's why it's a commercial. So I'm looking for the commercial.
It's not as good as this one, though. I'd like this one.
Academic from SUNY Albany, which is a college right? Sunni Sunni
s unyp. University of New York. That's right. Sunni. is
proposing a cure for morning sickness. Gordon Gallup
psychologist at SUNY Albany has a theory that pregnant women who
are continually exposed to the Father Seaman are less likely to
suffer from morning sickness. Gallop who specializes in human
reproductive competition. Really competition and behavior offers
a petition it says human reproductive competition and
behavior I guess. Yeah, don't do it. You can do it you can
reproduce offers a theory that expectant women become ill and
vomit because their bodies are rejecting the Siemens genetic
material as something foreign and unfamiliar. The theory could
feasibly quell that queasiness by ingesting the same sperm in
order to allow the body to build up a tolerance to this, I think,
is a brilliant move by this researcher who should receive a
Nobel Prize If I understand this correctly, he is advocating oral
sex for just before you get pregnant, even so you'll be used
to it when you get pregnant and you won't have morning sickness,
I think is
a very nice
round of applause for a round of applause for this researcher.
I've heard a lot of ways to try and trick women into doing this.
But this is this is the best and involves all the way
it's at least as good as the popcorn box in the lab.
I mean, this is great. This is, I mean, this, this guy is a
genius. We should erect a statue
that if you had if you had a clip, if I had, I
knew I knew you'd like it. I do actually have something that I'm
quite pleased about, and that I would like to discuss, but I
kind of got to ease into it. You know, Jim, Jim Savile. And Jim
Savile was a very famous disc jockey. And he also hosts the
Top of the Pops in the United Kingdom. And he and he had
another show, which is, which is called Jim we'll fix it. And he
would go around and kids would have a problem and they send
them a letter. And you're like, oh, Jim, you know, I don't have
a, I need a swingset or I got one leg. Jim needs some help.
And Jim would get on the television. He'd come over, and
Jim would come and fix it. Oh, hold on a second. I got a big
problem here. I'm in the middle of my Jimbo fixes story. And
Mickey just texted me that she's outside of the hotel room. And
her card doesn't work.
So you have to get up.
Yeah. Hum hum, hum. Hum. To door Yeah.
Tell her stop wrecking the show. So I got this book. I'm gonna I
think I put quotes.
It's okay, because we have a study that shows how you could
thank me for that. No worries. Okay, you go there. You
did that. That quick. What do you right next to the door?
It's not a big hotel. It's a motel. You
could have done this without saying anything. No, I had an
embarrassing the poor woman.
Okay, so would you please say a beep?
I was gonna say something. Let me so I got this. You got the
picture of Jim off top. Nevermind, keep going. Okay,
so you need to Google a picture of Jim Savile. And just look at
Jim Savile. Sav I ll E. He's been in the news all over the
place. Seville? I think is several. I think that's how it
pronounced. Yes, a vs. Av. Yeah, I ll II think that's Jim Savile.
And maybe I'm wrong on this guy with
the cigar. That's the guy. Jim we'll fix it, Sir James Wilson.
Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. No, he was knighted and everything. So now
the guy died a couple months ago. And now all these stories
come out about how he was abusing kids. The Jim will fix
it guy. And if you look at the picture, John, I mean, is it
Whoa, is that the president?
The guy with the with the he's wearing orange sunglasses. It's
got a huge cigar. He's wearing what looks like a wrestling
outfit. Uh huh. He's given a big thumbs up and he's got a pinkie
ring. Yeah, that's Jim. We'll fix it. Yes. And he's a knight
in the Brit LBE.
Yes, that's correct. So now Now, now, this is huge scandal,
because it turns out that, you know, he was fiddling about with
little boys. And there's all these Goldie's men are now
coming forward who are saying, Yeah, you know what, to an Uncle
Jim took me to the party. And, you know, there was all these
other famous, famous people, and then they'd be fiddling around
with me. And now one after the other is coming out. And of
course, this is after the guy's dead after all you have to do is
look at the guy and he has a show called Jimbo, fix it for
Christ's sakes. You got to know that this stuff, man was this
guy. I mean, this, you can just look at the guy. Does he look
like me? If you had to draw a picture of a child molester?
Would that be the guy is pretty close to it? Yeah. So now you've
got all these all these people saying? Yeah, no, I worked at
the BBC. Because of course, you know, this is the big scandal
was that people were telling superiors of the BBC Hey, man,
and and Jim is like he's fixing kids, you know, but not like in
a good way. And the BBC did nothing. So now here's an
example. This came out just yesterday morning, say
in the 80s. Just when I started in radio and television, things
were very different, and I will not name any names, but I was
once very unpleasantly gripped while I was broadcasting by a
famous individual who shall remain nameless,
nameless, why not name him. So this bunch is just a bunch of
nuts. They're all like fiddling about and touching each other.
And even John Peel is now in input implicated in this of
course, they only do this with dead people. So you do good.
Sorry.
Who would you say John Peel
implicate John Peel. Okay. Famous. Very appeal. Yeah.
Famous, very famous. Anyway. So, you know, it feels like there's
some. And of course, you know, there's still all this stuff. We
recently talked about the woman who was up there on the, you
know, the aisle of a jersey and getting kicked out and they've
got the orphanage there. And if you really get into this, and
you really read about all these, these people, you really quickly
get the feeling of is a huge pedo bear ring. And it's filled
with elites and famous people and politicians, etc. Now, what
is been one of my pet peeves? This show actually started
around the time what happened, John? I don't know. Got you.
When I was on the radio station in
Harlow. Oh, yeah, they burned the place to the ground. I get
emails from people saying, oh, man, I do have pictures. The
fire didn't actually burn it to the ground. But I brought up on
the show that this the Secretary General of the Ministry of
Justice in the Netherlands, yours Demick, that he's a
pedophile. And that there was an investigation. And they stopped
it and there was nothing to see here and all kinds of people are
being shut up. The media was shut up, and everyone was
silenced. And I brought it up. And guess what, I got fired and
the station lost its license lost its funding, and it is the
equivalent of being burned to the ground. So this guy is now
retiring in two weeks, he is 64. So that's pretty much the
equivalent of being dead, I guess, in politics since he is
of no use to anybody anymore. And it starts coming out in
mainstream media, that he's being accused of pedophilia. And
there's some there's a couple of very courageous lawyers and they
have taken this all the way to the Helsinki Commission. Now,
you may not be familiar with the Helsinki Commission, John. But
it is actually it has its seat in Washington DC, read about the
Commission. The Commission on Security and Cooperation in
Europe known as the Helsinki Commission is an independent US
government agency created in 1976, to monitor and encourage
compliance with the Helsinki Final Act and other OSC II
commitments. So this is obviously a Human Rights
Commission and a couple of senators are on the on the
commission, and they hold hearings, they don't really have
any power, they can't really do anything. But here is the
opening. Two minutes from the most recent hearing on October
4, and I'll give you the guy's name again. His name is Deming.
Although it is here pronounced as Dominque.
That leaves me speechless. What is going on here to the courts
in the Netherlands take human trafficking seriously. No. This
afternoon, we're going to consider how and to what extent
allegations of trafficking and abuse should be investigated.
will do so in the context of a particular series of cases in
which very, very serious allegations have been raised
against the Secretary General at the Ministry of Justice in the
Netherlands. Mr. Yours Dimmick. Mr. Demick has been accused by a
witness that will present today of sexually abusing and raping
the witness when the witness was being trafficked in a brothel in
Amsterdam, at the age of 15. The investigation into these
accusations was suddenly and inexplicably halted, and law
enforcement officials involved were allegedly sworn to secrecy.
Mr. domek has been accused by two Turkish boys, now adults of
having raped them in Turkey between 1994 and the year 2003.
At the time, the boys were 11 and 14, at least one of them was
homeless, and trusted the Turkish police officer who
brought him to Mr. domek. The other was allegedly locked in a
hotel room with Mr. Domecq who assaulted him sexually. The
allegations are shocking and horrible. Mr. De Mank has a
right to be presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court
of law. And that is a sacred right and I'm sure we all want
to protect. At the same time the allegations, when taken in their
full context, are credible and deserve to be properly
investigated, so that the prosecutor can make a
responsible decision whether to proceed with the case against
Mr. Dimmick. That investigation has never happened. The
investigations that have taken place have been a travesty, and
have done nothing to clear Mr. domex name rather they have
raised further questions. Yesterday, the Netherlands
Minister of Security and Justice Mr. upston, wrote to the Dutch
parliament regarding this case and listing the actions taken by
the Justice Department in regards to the allegations
against Mr. domek. The letter states and I quote, The Nature
of Mr. DIMACS job warrants a degree of vigilance, quote,
unquote. I could not agree more. The fact that Mr. Domecq is the
Secretary General of the Ministry of Justice, the very
entity responsible to investigate the charges against
him should mean that the investigation into the
allegations was one of the most thorough transparent and well
documented investigations ever undertaken by the Netherlands.
Not only are those making the allegations, literally taking on
the Dutch justice system in person, in the person of the one
of its top officials, but the reputation of the Ministry of
Justice itself is on the line.
So you can watch the two and a half hours of testimony and link
in the show notes at 450 dot na shownotes.com. But it looks like
this scum is now being thrown thrown under the bus. And yeah,
no, I mean,
there's this gets stopped before for a second this couple things.
A Do you feel vindicated? I feel much better. Yes. You despite
the fact that you ruin that station, you think this guy is
actually going to get they're going to get anywhere with this.
I feel
went Oh, so I don't feel vindicated. I'm not a vindictive
person. But I'm happy that this is coming to the forefront and
that it has been published in mainstream newspapers. And that
people are realizing that I guess the main thing is that I'm
happy about is that I see people saying, oh, man, I heard you
talk about that. So maybe a next few years ago before they burnt
the station down. Yeah. But so maybe the next time someone
raises the flag that people will listen, because of course it's
been five, six years and who do you actually expect that to
happen? To some some Hey, yes, to some degree. Yes.
Yeah. Well, like,
Okay, what else do you want to ask? Nothing.
I just thought it was interesting. It was almost like
a catharsis listening to this. Your, your demon, this creepy
guy, whoever he is demonic. Demonic Demming is now under
scrutiny. Yeah. Yeah, good. So I was reminded of Jeff Smith.
Hopefully in some other manner than, than this No, no,
no, not our Jeff Smith spelled with a G. Oh, cool. Jeff Smith,
the cook, the frugal gourmet, who was on PBS all those years,
yeah, and then was rousted as a pedophile. Oh, and even though
he's married a whole thing, which obviously doesn't mean
crap. What does that have to do with it?
I'm just saying it. But anyway, he was routed as a pedophile.
And then I struggled while you're doing the report. I
looked him up. And the reason I this came to mind because I
found one of his cookbooks at some bookfair I didn't buy it
because as far as cooking was always terrible. It's called a
frugal gourmet. Yeah. No, it was a frugal gourmet. It's funny
because he died of heart disease and 65. Right, right. So as a
frugal gourmet, I suppose I don't know what frugal had to do
with it. And he had this theme I've always pointed out I turned
his cooking show on once in a while. And I pointed out to the
kids, I'd say look, look what he cooked. It looks like everything
else. He cooked a big brown mess. And so I would ask you can
ask buzzkill Jr. You remembered me doing this? I believe a big
brown mess everything he could look the same. Big Brown mess he
was like
imagine Yeah, I can just imagine the kids going Yeah, dad. Okay,
we got it. No, it was funny the first 50 times.
It wasn't meant to be funny. So he had a bunch of books at the
frugal gourmet a frugal gourmet cooks with wine The Frugal
gourmet cooks American The Frugal blah, blah. And he was he
was leveraging was on PBS, which I thought was interesting that
he was leveraging his a little logo,
another hotbed of pedo bear activity. Apparently, yeah,
rife. I'm telling you, so I got it. I got vindicated because he
was making crappy
food. No, no, I'm talking about you know, a prediction or
something I'd said Sarah girl out of a rattle head. She sent
me a note to mention that was in The Telegraph. They wrote about
this acquaint
you mean Sarah are hot Russian spy? Is that geek girl? That's
my Russian spy. But I mean not get
what she sent me a note that she's your geek girl. But says
geek girl that's her very Email is geek girl at
but she's not supposed to be a Russian spy as she probably is
and
she's reading the telegraph and she ran into this is one of the
she says just wanted to let you know You're off beat prediction
came true. Oh, it's a prediction I made on both this show and a
twit broadcast and original yeah whatever the Korean means isn't
a quote green made galaxy s3 smartphone hit the headlines
recently when a California court ordered its maker Samsung to pay
Apple a billion dollars for infringement of copyrights.
Buoyed by all the free publicity US sales of the Galaxy soared
briefly overtaking the iPhone. Industry analysts concluded that
by telling the world that the galaxy was really just like the
iPhone. Cheaper. Apple had done Samsung a billion dollar favor.
Well, that and I'd have to say their commercials are really
really good. You're the one where all the idiots are
standing in line for the iPhone. Right? That's a great
commercial. I love
the connector on the bottom.
Whoa, that's crazy. Did they just touch phones?
I do love that commercial is very funny.
They're smart, a genius. The curry Devorah Consulting Group
couldn't have done a better job.
No, I don't think so that was done by some pros.
Here's here's an ad for you. Just to get us in a little happy
mood.
at Walgreens. We know kids share all kinds of things, especially
germs. That's why you always get your flu shot. This year,
Walgreens will do you one better and check if there are any other
immunizations you might need. Absolutely free. No appointment
necessary. Preparing you for years of unplanned sharing to
come at Walgreens and take care of clinics. We've got all kinds
of ways to arm yourself with flu season. And they're all right
here at the corner of happy and healthy
at the corner of happy and healthy
Creedence Clearwater. Yes, they're doing in the background
down by the corner. Yeah, down by the Walgreens corner
at the corner of happy and healthy get your shots. We'll
give them all to now to probably get your shots. Get your shots,
kiddies.
Yeah, it's good for you. So I got a
there's an interesting thing, there's just going to be coming
our way. So to China, I guess there's too complicated in China
to use credit cards. So somebody came up with his new idea. And
they're gonna use this and I think this could catch on
worldwide is to fingerprint this typical, you know, new world.
Whoa, I actually
have some information on this. Let me hear it play the clip.
Yeah.
Do you dare go shopping without carrying a wallet? Well, now you
can by pressing your finger right here. The system will
recognize your fingerprint and take money from a bank account
without you having to do anything else. This is a
biometric authentication system, which identifies users by their
fingerprints, and the payment setup just called fingerprint
payment. Change our phone. The founder of the company that
developed this fingerprint payment system in Shanghai says
it will simplify everyone's life.
From his cars to everyone uses nowadays, I actually just media
that proves that you are the owner of a particular bank
account. It is a medium of identification. We cannot use
fingerprints prove that you are the owner of your bank account.
And that one thing is enough.
Most major banks in Shanghai have begun offering registration
for the fingerprint payment service. Customers can register
the service at Bank counters, kiosks, or hotlines or websites
after registering their fingerprints. Customers just
need to press their finger on this device to pay their bills,
their fingerprint information will be processed and compared
to those existing in the systems database. And if it matches, it
pays your bills. The whole process takes around 30 seconds,
about 10 seconds faster than the average credit or debit card
transaction. So I've tried it it is very convenient. I like it.
white collar workers like to use fingerprint payment to pay for
their coffee here. It's very convenient. The feedback is
good. It is very fast and no signature is needed. They like
it a lot. With highly LG
ajuga Ching Ching, everybody in China sounds like Doug.
So yeah, that's obviously quite creepy, but no creepier than
using your phone or your your apple wallet or your Google
Wallet. It's all a very, very bad idea. The one thing I'll say
but yeah, but with a fingerprint. Yeah, that means
that someone could chop off your finger. It's yeah, you have your
finger cut off and unfortunately but they haven't so it has a
temperature sensor. You'd have to keep the finger in some warm
water
in your mouth. You
can just keep it I think it's a new use for roof ease. For roof
ease. Yeah, knock some Buddy, anybody out with the roofie,
when your book comes, you grabbed them because they're
passed, I look at your buddies passed out, and you grabbed your
finger and you put it on the thing, boom, you're out of
there, and you just leave the person there. I think this is
going to be a scandalous thing. You're gonna have people using
rupees to not pay their bill,
I think you're just going to chop someone's finger off, keep
it warm in your mouth.
And then take it to the camera like a cigarette.
You gotta roll it around in your cheek. Yeah, that's really keep
it warm. I will say I learned one thing from my friend who
told me about the, you know, the flowers of war movie in China.
He says that there is no such thing as credit in for the
typical Chinese. So everything you pay in advance. So you're
there's no electric bill that you get. There's he says every
apartment has a meter as a whole bunch of meters. It has meters
for water for electricity, for internet for everything. And
then you go and you take your bank card, and you pre pay. And
then you you can see the meter going down as to how much you
paid for your electricity. Yeah. So I guess that's what they
want. It's just like, sticking my finger on?
What the whole country in debt. Yeah, but it's probably all
debit card stuff.
But ya know, it's direct bank cards. Yeah. But that's kind of
genius. Because that means that the typical Chinese slave
doesn't have huge credit card
debt. Right? Which is actually not a good idea. If you want to
enslave people. Well, we'll get them into great debt.
They're learning. But you know, they'll figure it out. They got
the whole finger thing work. And that's, that's a good start.
And I wonder if you can use any
finger. Can you use your middle finger? The little finger? I
mean, I think you should use the middle finger is put that down
every time. Yeah. What do you think? Yeah, great
idea. All right. Well,
let's see.
I got some here. Yeah. All right. What you got? They just
couple things that as a good report, a good report at this, I
think came out of China to a drone nightmare report talking
about the drones and the Pakistanis are finally deciding
to do something. Yeah, they're protesting. They're, they're
pissed. Yeah, well, a big protest.
Critically, they hunt down the enemy without boots on the
ground. But what former soldier with firsthand experience, says
drones make it too easy to kill. James Jeffrey was in Afghanistan
in 2009, monitoring live pictures from a drone. He saw
what looked like a man planting a roadside bomb, and was about
to call in a strike from someone else appeared.
The individual who walked up was a lot larger, indicating that
actually it was probably a child in the middle of a row just
playing. And so obviously, at that point, you know, the
engagement was totally cooled off. But you know, it was it was
an unsettling experience, because I've come fairly close
to engaging that targets, which was a child.
At the forefront of opposition to the drones, Imran Khan, the
former cricketing hero, who now heads a political party. This
weekend, he hopes to lead a protest all the way to the
tribal areas. He told us the drones are backfiring.
The decrease in the number of militants are the winning the
war is the less extremism. Everything is getting worse.
There is more extremism in Pakistan today than ever in our
history. The huge pieces which are from the Hellfire missiles
lawyer she's ad Akbar from the legal charity reprieve is
collecting missile fragments for use in court actions by the
wounded and the bereaved
the use. So I read this morning that they already stopped the
protest.
Yeah, here's Yeah, what the question on my mind besides the
fact this guy was freaked out and obviously quit the job after
I was blown up some little kid that was just building up, you
know, sand castle. What was this British guy doing? Is he worked
he sound like he was a British guy. What was he doing? Is he
working for the AMA is mi six doing this? CIA operations.
That's a British guy doing looking at videos as exact
Killam. I don't know.
It's very unclear to me. Well, it's like this. What happened
yesterday,
who was falling on Israel from the air. That's what its
military is wondering after shooting down a drone in
southern Israel. Look at this video statement from the Israel
Defense Forces. It says it is not clear where the drone came
from, but it carried no weapons or explosives. Israeli soldiers
are searching for clues in the area where it was brought down.
So I was talking to our night here who who showed up yesterday
with with his lovely Daymond St. And he let me just put this way
he's from Virginia. And so he's saying the thing About the
drones. And he says, You have no idea how many how many drones
are being built and shipped all around the world is there's no
accountability. And this is exactly it. This you know, when
you hear some British guy, he could be working for a company
John, it doesn't have to be an army or an intelligence unit.
You and I if we if we can pony together enough money, we can
build a drone. We can have a go fly somewhere. And if we don't
have any, we got a competitor. Like we make an iPhone like hey,
you know, we got to screw these this Apple Company. Let's drone
Foxconn, we can do that. This is the problem with the drones is
no accountability. You don't know who they are. They don't
all have the American flag painted on the side.
In fact, even the American ones don't have the American flag.
Thank you. Thank you. You've seen the drones they're just a
big piece of gray metal.
And so these things anyone can you know, look a kids are flying
little mini drones. But anyone could put together a drone and
you know and now there's enough parts and enough pieces all over
the place that you can you know it's going to be used for for
industrial warfare. Well, they
had that guy was a YouTube video. I think we discussed it
when it came out about 2345 months ago, when this guy had
rigged up a submachine gun. Yeah,
that turns out that's fake. That was the whole thing was fake.
That video was fake. Now the
image may be fake, but it's a doable situ. Yeah, do it if you
had enough of big enough drone that by the way, um, it's a
wait, wait is this that's
my favorite guy. That's the Russian guy who shoots all kinds
of crazy weapons. Yeah, he's his YouTube channel is without a
doubt one of my favorites. But that one with the machine gun
mounted on the drone. That was fake. And I have that on high
authority from one of our other producers also enlisted
somewhere. I can't I gotta start watching what I say we have so
many people telling us so many cool things. For instance,
what's really going on in Syria and Turkey?
Yeah, I have a clip.
I'll play it for you and then we'll play yours Civil War
is spilling over its borders. Today the Turkish village of
Givenchy was hit by two mortar shells. Nobody was hurt. And
it's thought the shells were logged into Turkey by mistake
during fighting between Syrian rebels and regime forces. But
the Turkish military returned fire for the fourth day in a
row. Turkey has openly sided with the rebels in serious
conflict. Though so far it hasn't intervened directly. Now
some fear that border skirmishes between the two countries could
escalate into a regional war. On Wednesday, a mortar bomb fired
from Syria killed five civilians in a Turkish border town,
including a mother and her three children. In response, the
Turkish parliament voted to approve the use of force against
Syria if it's deemed necessary. What is together your day
Turkey's Deputy Prime Minister described that decision as a
warning, we have to protect our sovereignty, our security and
the lives of our people, he said.
So I'd like to point out that some of the bombs that had been
lobbed, as this report says they were lobbed over the border was
like that has a very, maybe that's a British expression that
doesn't translate well into my brain. But you know, there's not
like to someone loved one over the fence.
Okay, well, they report I have that's a British report. I think
mine is from China. Yeah. And so it has a different slightly
different twist to it because the Chinese are more inclined to
back lib. Libya or Syria
was once concern and speculation appears to be turning into
reality. A third straight day of sporadic fire between Syria and
Turkey is stoking fears of a regional conflict. But that's
something nobody wants, including those leading serious
opposition fighters.
We do not want to get into the war with Syria but who wants
humanitarian aid such as bread, water, food and medicine? That
God Turkey has helped us a lot.
On Wednesday, Syrian troops spider mortar bombing to Turkey.
It landed in a residential district of the southeastern
Turkish town of Accra Carly, a woman and four children from the
same family were killed and at least eight other people
wounded. In retaliation, Turkey fired back at targets inside
Syria. Syria apologized to Turkey for Wednesday's mortar
attack saying such incidents would not be repeated. But on
Friday, another mortar landed inside Turkey from the Syrian
side. And the exchanges have now continued for a third straight
day.
So here's the only problem, John is that the mortars that have
been landing in Turkey. Not all of which have exploded. Arden
NATO bombs. The Syrian regime does not have NATO munitions.
No, Russian munitions, right.
So these bombs are clearly being lobbed over by the so called
rebels or al Qaeda or whatever, whatever stupid name they have
to get turkey into the game.
Well, I think Turkey may be the one sending the bombs because
they want to get in the game. They remember they when they did
when the Turkish jet flew over Syria, and then was gunned down.
The Turks made a big fuss about oh, you're attacking us? Yeah,
well, yeah, your jet was an over, you know, over our
airspace. That's why. And they so and then they went back to
the drawing board. It says, Oh, this is no good. This, no one's
gonna back us on this one.
So wait a minute, wait a minute. So they are actually doing to
their own people, what they accused the Assad regime of
doing? They're blowing up their own tank? They're
the ones who have the NATO munitions. As far as I know,
they're part of NATO, aren't they? Yes. I mean, what would
the rebels be doing with NATO gear? Well,
that it's been given to them by by us.
Man, the more likely who's that who wants to get into a war and
then take over the place?
You have to know that a lot of these people who a lot of these
rebels who are now in in Syria came from Libya, and Libya, they
definitely got NATO munitions there.
Well, whatever the case is, who really bet who wants to be in
this war? I think that if you notice most of the mortars have
hit in the middle of nowhere. I think it was an accident that
one of them killed a woman and their kids. What would there was
somebody in that place? You idiots?
I'll take that. I'll take that. I'll take that. Yeah, I'll take
it. Well, yes, we know that Turkey wants to be in it because
they have a strategic very strategic benefit from this. I
am still not thinking that. We're going to have any real no
fly zone, NATO action for a while, because this is just
fine. I think, you know, Lucifer Clinton loves this. Just let
everyone fight. And maybe we get Lebanon involved with these guys
will fight amongst themselves. And we don't have to do
anything. I think it's I think so far so good on Plan win win.
Yeah, I agree. I win win, baby. Well, that's not actually what
she said.
You know what she said?
What did she say? It's almost too delicious to believe my
friend.
Come on, man. You walked right into that one?
I do exist expecting Oh, good, good. I knew you had that clip
lined up. It was a real good clip of something it was
meaningful instead of just a joke, he would have played it on
top of me instead, it's trying to set me up. Right. I know
you're you know,
all my tricks. Very important report. I think we have
discussed the law of the children. This is all part of
the United Nations who want to take away parents rights. This
will be and this kind of comes out you got agenda 21 On one
hand, and we have to, and maybe this plays right into this set
the pedo bear rings, where whatever it is, we have to give
more, we have to make laws for more reasons to take your
children away from you.
Delaware has become the first state to pass a controversial
law that effectively outlaws the corporal discipline of children
by their parents. Now the bill redefines child abuse laws to
include any rights that causes pain. Delaware's Attorney
General, Beau Biden, son of Vice President Joe Biden, of course,
he says the old law needed to be changed because it had been
difficult to prosecute cases where a child was too young to
speak or otherwise nonverbal.
No spanking is what that means.
Yeah, that's what it means. Yeah.
No, spankings.
And the kid can report you. Yeah. And then they,
Oh, man spank me on him and said I'm tearing you in.
That's exactly how the kids gonna talk. And that's, Joe
Biden saw
the kids will use this as leverage do,
please. So it hasn't actually been passed yet. But I'm looking
forward to that one. But this is a real initiative. This is a
real united nation that we remember we read the what was it
called the law the children was not what was called.
Yeah, we spent quite a bit of time on ignore can't remember
what it's called. But it's yeah, it's another United Nations
piece of crap designed to ruin all civilization.
Yeah, it's right. Crap. I mean, just I want to write some
of the children is some year right. Some some Yeah. Some dumb
Rights of the Child treaty. There you go.
By the way, if you're a Muslim country, let's say matter of
Pakistan Do they have to put this in play? Right? So the
chairman even beat the crap out of miss your wife or a girl?
Well, if they deserve it, yeah, well, they always do. Worse than
I have rights of the child. Let me just see. Let me see New
World Order. I'm just looking at episode 410 410 is when we
talked about it. And the Rights of the Child Wow.
40 shows ago 40 show how early were we 40 shows ago that's like
20 weeks early on the show on message. And now Don Lemon
forehead on some of these stories, that it's like nobody
even remotely. This is always a problem. If you're if you're
good visionary. He gets so far ahead of the curve, that by the
time the curve comes around, and is revealed no one remember that
you were way on this, like, you know, 20 weeks ago.
So is that a good thing? Like five months ago? I don't think
this is a good thing.
Now, we have no choice. Yeah, that's
what we do. That's what we do.
So I have an end of show clip. Playing. All right. I think we
should be wrapping
okay. Oh, is that my cue? Ah, there we go.
China investing in the US this year, we heard earlier that the
Chinese were right, you know, needling us about that. Yeah,
we're investing in Africa. But we're actually investing more in
the United States. So I thought it was interesting that they're
investing in certain cities. And the city they choose is like,
wow, they choose what and they're they're moving in. The
Chinese are going to turn the United States into like another
colony.
Well, regardless that we're going to have a road trip to
that city to go in sibling and pick up some cash
from the diners.
1011 12 is coming up on Thursday. We look forward to
seeing you there and your support of the program. Of
course, our October 26 5555, our fifth anniversary, go to
divorce.org/n A and I'll be back at home base camp mo fool
everybody. So looking forward to that and bringing you another
stellar episode of the Best podcast in the universe coming
to you from the town of douche here in Washington and the
District of Columbia a in the morning, everybody. I'm Adam
curry,
and from Northern Silicon Valley, where I reside. I'm John
C. Dvorak.
We'll talk again on Thursday, Episode 451. Right here on no
agenda and a reminder, no agenda producer update coming up next,
right here on the street.
Local American officials tried to entice 150 visiting Chinese
investors with details on logistics and other incentives
in their area. This isn't New York or Los Angeles, though.
It's Toledo, a small industrial city of 300,000 people in the
state of Ohio. This conference is the culmination of four
visits to China by Toledo's mayor and his staff to cultivate
interest in their city.
I when I went to China, there were cities that 15 or 20 years
ago, have 50,000 people and I got 15 million. So if you want
to learn about economic development, you go to where
economic development is occurring, and it's occurring at
an unnatural pace.
The Great Recession devastated Toledo's economy. Bell has
straightened out the city's once destitute finances. Now he says
foreign investment especially from China is a key part of his
strategy to create jobs. Chinese developers bought one of
Toledo's to downtown hotels. That same company organized the
recent conference and has set up an incubator to help Chinese
companies explored the area.
When we started the whole planning process, we never
anticipated we have this much turnout.
The hope is that connections made at conferences like these
will one day blossom into concrete partnerships. Tula you
didn't know Toledo, Ohio before but through the conference and
experts, we now think that it's a good place for investment. And
this is my first visit. I need to learn more about local US
laws and policies, as well as investment conditions in Toledo.
Now, last year, Toledo had already secured a major Chinese
investment in real estate. They're a group known as dashing
Pacific purchased some prime riverfront real estate right in
the middle of downtown Toledo, where they plan to develop a
multi use complex that will include shops, housing and
office space, all told that could bring in about $300
million of investment and it could end up being one of the
largest Chinese owned real estate developments in the
United States. Greg Morrow CCTV Chicago the best podcast
