By the way, we should have mentioned the Chinese that if we
get screwed the whole world's economy collapses. They're
screwed too. Oh, yeah. Adam curry,
John C. Dvorak. Sunday, December 28 2014. Time for your gizmo
nation media assassination. This is episode 682.
This is no agenda, feeling suckered
and hooks and 100% live from FEMA Region six in the capital
of the drone Star State Austin Tejas in the morning, everybody.
I'm Adam curry, man from Northern Silicon Valley. We're
fights are breaking out. I'm John C. Dvorak. Craig Levin
Buzzkill.
Fights are breaking out.
You didn't notice the fights breaking out everywhere.
There's a fight in Georgia in the country, Georgia. No. Okay,
so I don't have the clip of the other fight the one the big one
in New Jersey, where apparently 2000 kids on social media
decided to meet up at a mall and start fighting.
Oh, I missed all this. And this is my hometown. The
funny thing was, it was mostly black girls. When you see the
movies or the fights, it's just a bunch of girls punching each
other. And like, I don't know 500 guys holding up their cell
phones giggling and taking pictures
of it. When are you sure this is happening right now?
Yeah, and then there was the oh, here's the local one did this is
happening all over the country? Oh team
fights force Pennsylvania Mall. Oh my goodness. What is going
on?
And there's this one I have I have a local one. Where is it?
What's the name of this clip?
This is this is this is the the ratchet, right? Da Yes. This is
the rapture.
Arden Fair Mall in Sacramento reopened with extra security
today after fights shut it down early last night. Police
responded to a call of shots fired but found no shooting.
Instead they found multiple fights broken out at the food
court. One of them involves about 20 people
I was just eating and just all of a sudden and just a whole
bunch of people got up and started running and everybody
was fighting and security officers was tackling people and
and then we walked by and a whole bunch of people were lined
up in handcuffs and was crazy.
An 18 year old man was arrested and a juvenile was also taken
into custody. We say no one was seriously injured in those
fights
seems to have happened last year as well.
His fighting yeah so organized by their social media is largely
responsible for the grouping the large group and back in in
Becky's which is I thought it was jersey.
Remember, social media doesn't kill people. People kill people.
I've heard this. Yeah, I need a bumper sticker.
Wow, I didn't know about this.
I'm reminded when I was a kid. Oh yeah, here we go. We used to
have they stopped doing it. They actually changed the date at the
Alameda County Fair. Where they had on the Fourth of July night
and Fourth of July they had the fireworks and then a fight a
massive fight.
I was like after the fireworks I'm just gonna go fight that's
just like the like the wanderers like wonders you ever see there
was? No Oh man. Oh, yes. It's about the New York gangs. It's a
classic seven.
Right after the fight all hell would break loose and there
would be the I don't know hundreds of kids fighting always
in high school, mostly Chicanos and lower Latinos or whatever
you want to call them today. But they're from a couple of
specific schools
and old white guy. It's the Chicanos
she got she got knows where they make somebody like a straight
I'm done with that Chicanos way where they got into these big
fights and you could get punched out if you were standing in the
wrong place. Because they'd be running all over the place. That
guy would be this guy running punchers. You'd see these guys
it was very specific type of fighter. He would run as fast as
he could just punch somebody right in case and keep rolling.
Yeah, but somebody else. Yeah. And there was just just Melee
was just a huge and it just went on year after year after year.
And then the Alameda County Fair moved to the third. And there's
fights.
This is interesting.
Yeah, these fights. I don't know what it is. His kids get pent up
hostilities used to be a lot more fighting in school.
Yeah, I remember we would have like, I don't fit still like
that. I guess you can't even do that anymore. Where? Hey, man,
I'll see you after school. Everyone wouldn't okay. It's
gonna be a real fight.
Everyone gathered around at the playground guys try to beat each
other at
first they taunt each other. I got beat up once by two girls at
school at school. I know. Thank you for that. I know. It's I'm
admitting things this is the season to repent. Via these two
girls. I don't know they were like really pissed off. Girls
can beat up any guy. Oh, and they pulled my hair and what was
it going to do? I can't hit I can't hit these girls back when
they were they were beating up on me.
It was the whole thing. Well yes, them and you have done your
work can you coldcock either one of them?
No, in fact, a teacher broke up the fight and I'm just fending
off for for dear life. I don't even remember what it was about
I think but I think at some point I probably said something
provocative like, well I'll kick your ass bitch something like
that and you said Oh yeah, well we'll see you after school. Like
oh crap and I got blamed Of course.
Well it's your fault you you said I'll kick your ass bitch
yeah
should be blamed and yeah it was the but that wow that was a it's
a dark mark on my soul.
Well, maybe you just got out of your system.
So there was a fight in the UK? Yeah, there was a fight in the
Georgian parliament and this is not a I don't have anything with
any narration but this was 26 And what happened was the
opposition party the leader this is the this is the fighting they
are but they are they are they're jumping like like super
fly you know from because it's it's kind of one of those arenas
you know, like a parliament is where you have back benches that
go up higher and higher and dudes were jumping off the
higher benches in the back on two dudes down below and they're
ripping off the microphones that they use to talk in this
Parliament and hitting people with it completely crazy. And
this is all because the opposition leader in Parliament
swore he said that he custody custody somebody or something
and the whole place just went nuts and this is this is our our
big ally there in the region for the the Baku pipeline had to go
through the the sea by our friends Georgia. Yeah. W Bush
long as the as long as the Russians don't get get a
foothold
a lot of interesting things happened well first of all, I
really missed not doing a show live on Thursday. Did you did
you have any withdrawal symptoms? Did you have any
issues?
No. I listened to the show for a few minutes.
I listened to the whole thing I actually kind of liked it
done the show then. Well
no because I didn't think the show is the is the least amount
of work. It's all the prep and it's getting ready and you know
sorting stuff out and show it was alright I got a lot of
positive comments.
Yeah, some people said good things Yeah.
You know the comic strip blogger hates us as always didn't use
his album art
I use his merch in the newsletter right
but that's not good enough it's not good enough for him no I
what I really mean let me just say
this about that a little bit that's kind of entity
yeah please
let me say this about that's a performative if I've ever heard
one. Yeah. Oh yeah. He essentially is a natural doing
evergreen art which works out perfectly for the newsletter.
But there's no he does funny pieces but they're not thematic
to the specific show necessarily. Right. And when
they are they're not as good as evergreen so I don't know what
to do much we can use this piece we've used the pieces a couple
of times some people never
Yeah, he's one of these guys who sends an email as well I can't
donate to your show because you support racist you Kip okay
fine.
What Is he is he British? I didn't know he was British
British polish. But what is it give a crap about
you Kip because there because he says Nigel Farage and all of you
Kip is biased and
racist. Despite listening to our show all he does is believe
media propaganda Exactly.
Ah, he sends me links to prove it it doesn't matter that's
that shows you why the art doesn't get in is because it's
not fully connected through stream of consciousness he
is not connected his soul to the to the broadband pipe have no
agenda healthiness. Yes, well, it
happens anyway. I
missed it. Just because there was so much going on. I missed
the opportunity to mock the elites is they bestowed this
hoax upon us known as the interview. Oh, my goodness. I
mean, could we have called everything more right about this
thing?
No, we couldn't have been
right. It's so obvious. So I know that you watch the movie. I
actually watched it as well. I didn't eat I need to on a
second. I just need to play two things because that was so Sony
relented or they reversed their decision. Apparently, you know,
yeah. At the end of obscene effort to get back some of the
money they've spent on this turkey of a movie and by the way
before anyone listens any further, neither one of us are
recommending anyone spend any a nickel on this piece of crap.
Well,
we do have man on the street interview, which is always fun.
And just to let you listen in to how stupid we are in America, as
these are people waiting in line. Of course, Texas has a lot
of the Alamo theaters. So we got a lot of local news covering
covering people going to see this and here's how the
propaganda works. Now people who are listened to this program if
you have you know, agenda ears on, you'll recognize immediately
the how sick these people are just purely ill. The first one
interestingly enough sounds like she's British.
No, this isn't film, I probably would not have come to see that
because of the controversy. I thought they would come out
tonight stand up for freedom of speech.
I don't think people are afraid of North Korea here in America
on American soil. We've got America 1000s of Patriot
patriotic Americans on missing Christmas with their families to
defend our country overseas. And we can't go to a movie at home
that seems kind of lame.
I am here because I want to do is you're going to the movie
filmmakers who were being censored by foreign body
filmmakers
being censored by a foreign bodies. I don't believe that
anybody should have the right to censor a work whether it's
satirical or not. Alright, let's
talk about this for one second is
first of all, is not satirical.
Let us know. Let's talk about the censorship for a moment.
This is one thing the President talked about in his year end or
his big double ender year Ender speech about self censorship and
how he felt that this was wrong of Sony to self censor, let us
quickly review. Oh, here it is.
We cannot have a society in which some dictator some place
can start imposing censorship here in the United States.
Because if somebody is able to intimidate folks, folks out of
releasing a satirical movie to Tarik imagine what they started
doing when they see a documentary that they don't
like, or news reports that they don't like, or even worse,
imagine if producers and distributors and others start
engaging in self censorship. Oh, because they don't want to
offend the sensibilities of somebody's sensibilities
probably need to be offended. That's not who we are. That's
not what America is about.
Okay, so that's the piece that I when I heard him say, we need to
maybe there's somebody needs to be offended. Maybe these guys
need to be offended somebody out there some folks and that's not
who we are. That's not what America is all about, which
reminded me of these exact words he used when he decided to self
censor the showing of the bin Laden his dead pictures,
it is important for us to make sure that very graphic photos of
somebody who was shot in the head are not floating around as
an incitement to additional violence as a propaganda tool.
You know, that's not who we
are. Not who we are. I don't know what we are now we're
nothing apparently
that's a good bit. Same clip.
That's not who we are. That's not who we
are. Who we are is just stupid. Moving.
Who are we is what I want to know.
Well, apparently people with voters that go straight out. Can
you notice that too?
I read out. I was thinking stick get a guy's pants. That's a sin,
right? These three men three mentions of erections one visual
portrayal with the camera on him. This movie, by the way, was
directed by ICE Seth Rogen. It was also written by Seth Rogen.
If he gets more work, it's going to be a disaster. It is the most
juvenile thing I've ever seen in my life. It had nothing but
booger and dick jokes for those in the comics sphere. You
understand what that
was? A lot of a lot of gay jokes. A lot of gay jokes. In
fact, the whole thing was everyone's gay. Well, have you
seen Seth Rogen movies? I'm wondering John Have you have
you?
Shall Green Lantern a piece of
crap? Hate a green comedy? How about did you see Pineapple
Express? No. But see the kind of halftime Do you remember Fast
Times at Ridgemont High?
Yeah, this is a slight typo. This is like one of those Porky
movies.
Monkeys revenge. People like marquee revenge, they
would love this movie.
I gotta tell you, I laughed several times. I thought the
whole Eminem is gay.
is very well known. But you telling me it's funny. That the
guy there's a chat going on it crushes some guy's head. And
then this is the only movie I've ever seen has Both projectile
vomiting and then the height of comedy projectile diarrhea
depicted on the screen.
Yeah, you just have never seen this
in all these sorts of movies I didn't see no Apple Express but
that would
have been a good one to to see as How about the end? This is
where the James Flacco Seth Rogen franchise was developed
this movie called The End. Which which also stars Leguizamo. No
no. Jonah Hill. Yeah. Have you seen this movie?
I don't understand why they just don't get Pauly Shore and put
him into the mix.
Now you're really hurting me because Pauly Shore is a dick.
Yeah, this this Hey, what's the fuck that guy?
Always Hey, you can tone down the cussing.
I'm sorry, but he they put him on MTV and preempted everybody
because he was so funny. Oh, this
is because this is MTV? Yes. Got nothing to do with a guy who
really not funny.
No, really. So Pauly Shore is not funny. And the reason he was
put on MTV all the time was because of his mom. Okay, who
runs the Comedy Store in LA? And everyone wants right that's
right. I knew that everybody wanted seats and every one kid
that has so
much kind of it was had so much comedy in his in his world it
would be funny but no, here is
what I one of the better they that we could have done a
rewrite of this particular scene and we would have come up better
but at least it they had something had some value to me.
No, this is not a joke. Okay, well, I think you're being kind
of condescending. sharp sharp. I'm on the phone Okay. Man, that
was John Kerry's office.
Forget that oak tree look and fuck this pops it
should have been watermelon head not oak tree
Well, I would if you think this movie was in any way decent. I
didn't say that. The missile coming down and killing the
tiger. Chris salary Okay, John. So the change in characters the
VO Seth Rogen character first who was against doing this whole
thing. And then he became all for it. Or the coincidence of
the guy eating the chewing gum and these are all spoilers by
the way. Eating the chewing gum with the poison and dying. Yeah,
that was lame. It doesn't even look like chewing gum but let's
put it this way. It's a band aid
this let me put it this way. This movie and you know me I
don't pirate stuff I pay for you know when somebody makes
something I want to make sure they get the people sent me
torrent links all the time said no, thank you. I'm not
interested. I'm just not. I'll pay for stuff. I don't care.
I'll pay even if it should go on. I didn't pay for this one.
Screw it. I watched this. Someone gave me a Dropbox
download. And I watched it at one in the morning on my laptop.
It was okay for that.
We paid for it. And you got an HD version, which we watched.
And it was one of these you know me about? I don't like paying
for movies. I soon wait for HBO to come out and do the movie
unless it's a movie that you're paying for it and I will see a
movie in a theater if it's like a spectacular or some movie I
really want to see like Birdman. I wouldn't paid for that. And
because you know, whatever cost, but we paid for this. And it was
one of those kind of gotchas. It was a catch 22 Because it was a
movie. Normally, if I was watching on HBO, I'd be done
with it at 15 You know, okay, I'm through. There's other
things to do with my time. I can't spend but waste my time
watching this garbage. Right? I agree. But because I paid for
it, and you're gonna wash it. I felt the bill. Okay, so Mimi and
I both sat down and watched the whole thing groaning and the
whole time and I mean, I can't say that there wasn't a moment
or two where
there was funny stuff was like two items. So what is your
point? Okay, we got it you didn't like the
point is people do not spend any money on this piece of crap.
You're just feeding the sands at Sony, who are corrupt?
Well, yes. And now let's move away from the merits of the
celluloid production to CBS News, CBS News, who clearly have
been following our lead. For several weeks. We have said this
as an inside job. This is not North Korea. There's the
evidence the forensics are weak that the FBI presents and it's
by the way, the FBI should be ashamed of itself.
Hell yeah. Listen to this,
as jamika just reported the FBI blames North Korea for hacking
Sony Pictures. Others are not so sure.
Sony was not just hacked. This was a company that has
essentially been nuked from the inside.
Kurt Stan Berger is a Senior Vice President with Nourse a
respected Silicon Valley cybersecurity firm
now stop Do we know this outfit? Nourse? Is this truly a
respected? Oh, no. Never heard of him. Okay, well, just so you
know, Mr. Tech journalists, their respective Silicon Valley
cybersecurity firm.
Yeah, well, they might be as possible. It's not as though
tech journalists are generally dealing with these obscure firms
that do consulting not directly
involved in the Sony case, it has conducted its own
investigation.
We are very confident that this was not an attack masterminded
by North Korea and that insiders were key to the implementation
of one of the most devastating attacks in history. Okay, so
clearly this is a sales job for Norse because they're so good.
And but what I liked is they have some data to back up their
claim.
He says Norse data is pointing towards a person who calls
herself Lena and claims to be connected with the so called
Guardians of Peace hacking group. Norse believes they've
identified this person as someone who worked at Sony in
Los Angeles for 10 years. Lena Dunham bunny this past May,
this woman was in precisely the right position, and had the deep
technical background she would need to locate the specific
servers that were compromised.
Other experts in cybersecurity and private intelligence are
also questioning the FBI is claim that North Korea is solely
to blame for the Sony hack.
There are certainly North Korean fingerprints on this. But when
you're rerun all of those leads to ground, they turn out to be
decoys or red herrings around.
For instance, while the malware used to attack Sony has been
used by North Korea before. It is also used by hackers around
the world every day. Now, it's worth noting that the original
demand of the hackers was for money from Sony in exchange for
not releasing embarrassing information. There was no
mention of the movie The Interview, James meanwhile, the
FBI is continuing its investigation of the Sony hack
back. They just like saying. So thank you very much, CBS.
Welcome to reality. Now, here's what was really great about this
past week. Not only did we have all of this stuff going on, but
we got a the the script writers got together. And they said you
know what? This is so this is just too good. We need to put
out another episode of the show. You know, the show I'm talking
about? Know what? We'll be
talking since I missed this.
Kay says,
and she come on everybody.
Marie show starring Matt Lee, also starring Marie Hart.
Now, I have to say that, first of all, they were doing some
renovation in the regular State Department briefing room. So
they were in this big auditorium, where they had mics,
they had to turn on and off. And Maria was very uncomfortable
that because they had the lecture in there, you know, the
podium, as she would call it. And because of the nature of
this auditorium, which was really kind of like a UN General
Assembly type setting. They had spotlights on her and she was
she was a bit uncomfortable. Now Matt is right off to her. Right.
And he's sitting in pole position, if you will. And it
was just wonderful. John, I have to tell you, that I learned so
much from one briefing. Truly, it's not just about Sony about
all world affairs, the Matt and Murray show should be prime
time. Must see TV. This is so good. And let us start it off
with with the first question and answer session between our
lovebirds
as the FBI and the President and everyone has now made clear we
are confident the North Korean government is responsible for
this destructive attack. We stand by this conclusion. The
Government of North Korea has a long history of denying
responsibility for destructive and provocative actions and if
they want to help here they can admit their culpability and
compensate Sony for the damage that damages that they caused.
Now when I heard this my head spun around. What
is cinema bill?
You're calling on the North Korean government to compensate
Sony guy
is Matt Lee, the man or what Matt Lee, the diplomatic
reporter for Associated Press everybody star of our show.
Well over the weekend. They said a number of things, including
what Pam referenced, but also talking about a joint
investigation and yes, if they want to help here, as they
indicated over the weekend, they did then they could admit their
culpability and compensate Sony for the damages this attack
caused
okay and you also said North Koreans have a long history of
covering up
of denied responsibility for destructive and provocative
actions. That's obviously not cyber related or actions as
well.
How would you rank the US record on that?
I don't think there's any comparisons. As as
not the United States government denied responsibility for things
that ultimately
I don't think there's any comparisons anything the US
government doesn't anything the North Korean government does. So
give a more specific question. I'm happy to entertain that
comparison. It's just not warrant.
Well, I mean, for years and years and years you denied and
there was a denial of any any role in the coup in Iran in
1953. For example, those I'm just saying,
which we've been very open and public and discussions.
But it took 40 years for that.
We've, we are look, I will put our record of discussing our
history and our past up against any other countries on the
planet, particularly North Korea's Is there anything else
on North Korea? What a joke?
No BJ for you tonight, Matt on but he comes around later. And
I'm playing this out of sequence. And he and now a man
has had some time to think about it. Because he finds this very
this is he is kind of a combinate. If we had a love
child, he would look like she would look like madly probably.
But he's now had a chance to think about this. He's like,
hold on a second, this compensation bull crap. Well,
let me let me see if I can. But I need to get back at this girl
because of course, they're lovers.
As you say North Korea is one of the most heavily sanction
countries in the world. And it's pretty hard for it to be
involved in any kind of legitimate at least
international finance or commerce. So with that in mind,
I'm wondering how much thought was given to the response put
in, you're responsible for the North Korea should pay
compensation to Sony. Well, how could I? How Could North Korea
How could Sony legally accept compensation from North Korea?
This is a John C. Dvorak question, by the way, wait a
minute, you can actually accept money from North Korea, because,
you know, that's illegal or an exception.
And I'm happy to check with our attorneys. Because I mean, as
far as I know,
we can bend the rules a little bit to worry about.
I'm glad somebody called her on this bowl. Crap. That's lovely.
And why would you come out with this? Oh, you know, we're gonna
we're gonna make North Korea pay them for what and now they're
gonna, what was the damages? Specifically? What did it amount
to? Did she have a number? Did he ask her for the number?
What's the numbers? Billing? Is it a million isn't 100,000?
Let me see what's on the rest of the clip payment from the North
Korean government. You're breaking the law.
I'm happy to check with our attorneys. I'm sure we could
probably find some exception to make in this case. I was broadly
making the point that North Korea's offer this weekend to
quote help with the investigation was probably a
little bit misplaced in there are things they could do to
better assist, including admitting their culpability
and pay compensation paying compensation. And what do you
have in mind for that compensation? Would that be like
actors salaries?
I don't want more specifics for you. i But I'm happy to check
with your legal folks. And I will try to get you a question
or an answer on the
actor salaries. He's kind of asking the question I like Yeah,
I think it's good. But then I did learn something that there's
this
thing that kind of gets to me is, if he didn't ask this
obvious question, would anyone else in the room have said
anything?
They would have? Just let what is Ross? Right? Well, not every
there's one other woman and I'm not sure who she works for.
There's
a woman from our tea who keeps asking meaningful questions.
Yeah, but
this is not her. This is not the woman from our tea. This is this
is the next day. So this is the second day in this new setting.
This is somewhat longer, but this is really, you probably saw
the clip on TV where you know, so the word gets out. Whoa,
North Korea's internet is down. Oh, okay. Sure, everybody. And I
believe that, whatever. Great. Yeah. Hey, it's probably yes.
You know, so Marie was being grilled. And this one woman's
like, you know, what's going on? And she's all you know, well, I
don't know. I really don't know. No, that's
what match you to come back shower. Are we going to pay them
con compensation for cutting off their internet?
Well, that didn't happen. But I do want to play this interaction
the next day, where they all coming back and saying, Hey,
look, Marie, you got to tell us it. Did we do anything? No, you
can't just say Nana Nananananana. Yes, ma'am.
Okay. So apropos of questions that you were getting yesterday.
May I ask you if the Legion of internet users in North Korea
should
come up the Legion guy, he has funny lines that he slips in
there. He's got some good, some good stuff back
to face, further disruptions in the coming days of their
service.
Well, as I said yesterday, I can't speculate. I mean, ask the
North Koreans if their internet wasn't working. I can't
speculate on why that was. If it wasn't I can't confirm the
reports that it actually wasn't so I would check with them.
They're certainly the bright people. speak to this and I
don't have much more on this.
How exactly would you suggest we do that? Email? Bingo, Boom
shaka laka International.
You're an enterprising reporter. Well, sure, you can find some
way. But it's not. I guess my point is, it's not something for
us to speak to. It's their internet, and
it's their internet.
The internet was the world's
Can I ask you, here comes this woman. And so now the tag team
in her and I don't know who this is now a love triangle with this
new woman. I got to find out who she is.
Your answer yesterday to this to this.
And by the way, Matt just overruled the other reporter
that
was cool. Which I think
Nicole Nicole, that's her name. Nicole was
interpreted by a lot of people to be a kind of nudge nudge wink
wink.
And I wasn't indicate I don't think I actually winked or nudge
during that.
They're getting cute. This is a lover's spat happening before
our very eyes.
I know. And what I said a couple of things. I said I can't
comment on those reports one way or the other. I can't confirm
that one way or the other. I don't actually know that their
internet without bringing the other woman to I was broadly
speaking about what the President has said the other
woman was trying to link it to yesterday's activity. And I
understand it was sort of interpreted that way and did not
mean to Can
I have something more pointed particularly about that? I mean,
I think it's, we're not asking you in anymore. Like if the
internet was shut down, it clearly seems that they've had
some kind of interruption. So just point blank, was the US
involved in anything related to the internet shutting down in
North Korea,
I would like to point out that I have seen no evidence whatsoever
that the internet was shut down in North Korea. Have you John,
have you seen any real evidence?
I don't know what evidence I'd look for. Thank you, whatever it
is, you look for
anything, any any kind of forensics network forensics that
I could find. And I really didn't know there's no
voice I don't even know when what node they run through. I
have no idea where they're structured.
Well, they apparently their their transit is coming from
China, which makes a lot of sense. But even that doesn't
necessarily have to be true in the whole beauty of the
internet, is if you could have a 3g connection. And they have
they have cell phones in North Korea. You know, you could there
could be a network setup that way it could be a million
different ways. But everyone has now just assuming that this
happened without any evidence whatsoever. So now we're just
all assuming it took place so now the only thing is
go to ask Nourse
This isn't our internet, at least I would go ask.
It's not our internet Elise. This is Elise. Okay,
North Korean did the US undertake any type of cyber
operations that could have led to the North Korean internet
ground
I remember this is the other one.
I don't have any information to share with you. So you're
not saying you're not saying absolutely not You're not I
think I'm not going
to comment on those one way or the other and I would caution
you from doing that
I'm not assuming I'm asking a question you serve me okay young
lady just because we're
in this room doesn't mean we can all talk over each other
joining into terrible of this is this is the soap
opera. Okay. You want me to jump out of this?
But they should murder? No. No. Should be more sort of? No, I
think she's she's, she's choking or something or she doesn't
know. I mean, when you see the other when you see, Saki she is
really good at cutting off the conversation. Yes, move to
something else. Boom, done. Right. But she's also not having
sex with Matt Parker could it was doesn't mean if she's having
sex with Matt, it doesn't mean she has to continue this
conversation. This is like a little spat. Oh, it should shut
down the conversation if she has any. You know, I don't know.
Oh, in this one time at bandcamp.
I stuck a flute my pussy wouldn't be interrupting if she
had let you
see Mads come in to kind of spice it up.
I like that you do have to turn the mic on, though. You have to
tend to know what I'm saying is? Look, I don't have anything new
to share with you today about North Korea, the President has
spoken to What are potential responses separate and apart
from what we've seen over the last 24 hours might be and I
leave it to the North Koreans to talk about if their internet was
up if it wasn't and why we're just not going to entertain
questions one way or the other about, you know, any any any of
these questions about, you know, possible us responses of any
kind. And I would caution you from assuming that because I'm
not going to comment on them that the answer means one thing
or the other.
I'm not assuming anything I'm just asking sounded
like you're not. This is what she doesn't she doesn't do that.
Right. You said we just sounded like Kiki is
a huge mistake.
She needs a little more train. No,
it's not. It's just, you know, a lot of people are assuming and
I'm not in the business of assuming I'm in the business of
asking you whether the US was involved in this obvious
shutdown of the North.
Obvious shut down. Now.
Don't think we're going to get into the business of every time
something happens in a country like North Korea saying yes or
no. Either way. I think that just sets a precedent that quite
frankly is not a helpful one and I just don't have more free
she's this does she's not gonna get suck his job with this with
this performance she
probably won't even get the hold on the mat with this performance
very poor.
So they will so the North Korean internet actually runs through
Thailand and through the likes the Pacific so you could
probably do a little research by just calling them
so here's this is another thing everyone says oh it's all China
it's all China.
Now this runs through Thailand and then before that they were
running through a satellite link to Germany for their internet.
But right now it all goes to start joint venture company,
joint venture in North Korean government post and
telecommunications corporations and Thailand based Loxley
Pacific. There's no China involved.
There you go. Well, this is all thank you with one search
the why you're yakking. And then since she's fumbling, I find
that this out very effortlessly, very easy. No one can do this
simple search. You could be
sitting there in the state department asking the real
questions given Matt a real
connection.
So here's the blocked yet right. I did find out something else
which kind of slipped by that this is not the only the only
thing that's happening with North Korea right now.
Apparently there is a United Nations Security Council meeting
that is all about North Korea. And North Korea has said we're
not attending this farce. Today's
Security Council meeting is a historic one. I would say for
the first time, the situation in North Korea human rights
situation will be a standalone agenda item in the Security
Council. I think it's a 3pm today, this is a significant
step and will ensure continued counsel attention to the human
rights situation moving forward and demonstrates really the
concern of the international community. I guess I'd say I'm
not surprised that North Korea would seek to avoid scrutiny of
I think what anyone would call an atrocious human rights record
ferocious. They've been doing so for years. The DPRK has
heightened diplomatic activity both in New York and around the
globe, I think to avoid an examination of this record is
pretty telling, and I think probably speaks for itself. But
we're looking forward to the session this afternoon. We think
it's an important step forward.
Okay, so we need to find out what came out of that session,
because I'm sure they're trying to move towards. And I owe an
international criminal court getting Kim Jong Hoon, which is
exactly what they don't want, which is why they released the
two prisoners, because they wanted to show Hey, we're really
trying to move away from this image. This is according to our
New York connection, which is pretty solid. So there's
nobody's listening to them. It's they're still being used as a
punching bag for the purposes of selling weaponry to South Korea
now and the rest of the world for that matter. Right.
And I do have more, but we'll come back later to part two
are talking since this key is
now the CNN Road, apparently that nearly all the country
without attribution. Of course nearly all the country's
internet traffic is routed through China and might be
routed through China, but it's out of Thailand. But that may or
may not be true because as we can tell by today's headlines
that CNN apparently has the world's worst journalist.
If you mean the our friend who's sitting at home with his high on
crystal meth and a dildo in his boot, do a phone and in about
the plane.
No, that's funny. Uh, we think it would be him.
He is so high. Have you seen Have you seen Richard Quest?
I have not seen him for months.
Oh, my goodness. So this plane disappears. They call him and
then I saw at the at the expert have a bride the expert.
Exactly. And he's high as a kite.
Yeah, it gets a party animal.
He's still high. He's on the air with Skype from home that can
make it in men. Again, make it in. Alright, so yes. All right.
Well, a lot of miscues. Anyway, this guy has been named the
world's we see, dubbed the worst journalist of 2014, as it CNN
journalist. So who do you think it might be worst journalists of
2014? This isn't a post written by the Columbia Journalism
Review. Do I get one or two questions why he deserves my
other? Yeah, don't look it up.
No, no, you're my first question. He or she. So it's a
he so I don't have to ask that question. On Air journalists.
Don't say that.
You didn't say that. Oh, it's not a CNN person. It's just the
worst journalist period.
No, it's just CNN personally, that's your clue. On the air
might not I'm not saying Hey I just said it's a person that
said CNN and you would know I believe I'm not absolutely sure
about this. I'm pretty sure that you know who this you would know
this guy's name. And this guy No, I
know I don't know they all suck
Don Lemon?
Well of course of course he's on the air so that was what that
was gonna be my guest away from the answer that was gonna be my
guest and then you lose me lead you away from the answer. Why
would you do that? This is not this is not nice. I was I was
gonna guess it that's why you led me away.
You're getting there. horrible man. And again, you know gaff
after gaff and some of the crap is one Jim lemon was discussing
missing admission missing Malaysia Flight 370 and decided
to black the black hole started Yeah, six aviation experts about
to preposterous possibility the aircraft was sucked into a black
hole.
Yeah, we played all those
clips. We did play it a lot of them
and my favorite has got to be has got to be this one
by to him and said I have an infection and if you rape me or
if you do if you have intercourse with me, then you
will probably get it and give it to you why I said he was he made
you perform oral sex right you know, there are ways not to
perform oral sex with you.
I was kind of quite honestly, that didn't even enter my mind.
No, I wish it would have
fascinating interviewer
meaning the using of the teeth. Yes, that's what I forgot to
tell the rape victim she should have beaten the guys take off.
Okay, listen, good work. Give them a raise. That's not does he
get a free pass because he's gay. Why have people not
vilified him? This black?
Does he get a double you've got to double get out of free Get
Out of Jail Free card double
there's more to it. It's also Cosby as a celebrity you know
you the stuff that doesn't really count if it's about a
celebrity just Okay. Before we move on, I think it is a
appropriate time to thank you for your courage and say in the
morning to you John C. Dvorak.
Well in the morning to you Adam curry and I mean that sincerely
I know you do in the morning to you Adam curry
as he brings up the spreadsheet very slowly sorry I can I can

nice if I get this thing settled down. Okay. And I want to thank
a few people for helping us out for the last two shows even

Mark Dytham Baron of Tokyo. Hey, next on our list at $333.33
Simply the best part of the year so far. 2014. For the best
podcast in the universe. You guys rock our world. Here's to
an insane 2015 Man hugs from the slave state. Singapore
was in Singapore is getting drunk in cinemas Singapore is
doing
probably a building.
The competition is not supposed to know.
Well, they'll find out soon enough when they start erecting
it. He reminds her that movie. He also wrote a lot of dice does
he's a great guy. Yeah. thinking. Thinking binary in
Seattle, Washington. $300. I wanted to do an instant night
donation but I still haven't paid for overtime. I've been
paid for overtime work that I did the beginning of November.
So here's $300. Anyway, so the great podcast you and John
create. I have a few comments regarding my use of Uber on a
recent trip to Warsaw. I think this is worth reading around
Warsaw because people a lot of people like Google you're one of
them. After listening to your talk about Uber I decided to
give it a shot when I traveled to Warsaw. It's to me it seems a
stretch to try over anywhere but here.
Why are they works perfect. Stretch?
No stretch. For what? For the limo stretch limo. Boy, they
only have Uber pop there. Well,
have you had sex since you've been up there? Because you need
to you need to release some negative energy.
Yeah, the negative energy was that movie. Very simple, very
easy to understand. Alright, move on. Although now I'm really
annoyed that you like the movie.
I didn't say I liked it. I said there were some funny moments.
They only have
Uber pop there, which as you informed me on Twitter allows
regular people those without a taxi license to use their
personal vehicles to take fares. I must say that the experience
was spectacular. Hmm. Every Uber driver was Kind and Courteous.
We struck up conversation with many of them and got great
advice on traveling in the country. I decided to ask a
couple of them what they thought about driving for Uber. One
driver in particular told me he likes driving for Uber, as
opposed to his old gig as a regular taxi driver because the
clientele aren't drunk and don't puke in my car.
He should wait until he drives New Year's Eve.
The thing to do is to not drive New Year's Eve. I found this
funny given that you specifically commented on Uber
drivers having customers puke in their cars. That's the
way it works in America.
I would I would think so. Another England must really be
something another driver told me he's bored on when weekends
anyways. So he says anyways, so he doesn't mind driving around
and making some extra cash or sauce service has only been
running since September, but it sounds like it is growing rather
quickly. Okay, well, that's an interesting sidebar.
Since you mentioned it, I have a clip about alcohol in the UK.
Hit it
when a good time goes wrong, drunk and out of control. But
who should be picking up the pieces. Alcohol fueled fun can
easily turn into something far more serious. abuse and violence
are not uncommon. And it's our doctors and nurses who will
often left to deal with the consequences of a night of
excess. But we've already stretched accident and emergency
department. The leader of Britain's a&e Doctors says it's
too I'm the police did more to help. The bottom
line is every minute spent dealing with somebody who is
simply disorderly and creating a distraction is a minute less of
nursing or medical time spent with other patients. Again, they
may be patients suffering from alcohol intoxication, who
actually need our assistance. You phone
me banged your head, is that right? Yeah,
so deterrence should be toughened up, drunk and
disorderly people arrested and given a criminal record, if
necessary. But this zero tolerance approach would take up
time and resources.
This is so crazy in the UK, you don't need to give people guns
to kill each other. They're killing themselves by dare
drinking themselves to death. In the emergency rooms are
overflowing with drunk puking Brits.
What do you think's causing this alcohol to know? I mean, what do
you think up? There's alcohol everywhere?
It's their culture. The the Brits used to have gin carts in
the streets. It is it is their culture. But it's you know, I
know me. I'm Michelle my
Bective. Hogarth has a number of drawings of the drunks in
England back in the 15 1600s and 1700s.
So and of course, it's gray, it's dark, you know, it's
depressing the shitty food. I mean, I can go on and on. You
got a lizard running the country.
Yeah, the lizard probably depressed.
And then what they do, as I know from my friend, Michelle, the
gangster who owns some of these clubs, they compete on price,
and it's a pound for a pint,
which is a good deal. And people are just hammering it down. 30
seconds left,
both in short supply
is quite frankly, nonsense. It's over simplistic. When we're
talking about misuse of drugs and alcohol, to just say,
actually, let's just hold them up in front of the court. What
this is really about is it's about a lack of resources in the
public service as a whole. There's a lack of resources in
the police service resource in the ambulance service. There's
lack of resources in the NHS, more primary care. That's the
issue that needs to be addressed. More
money, give us more money. How about solving the problem with
your people, dude? Anyway, there you go. So I don't think Uber
pop is so great in London, probably really crap.
Well, I've said it before I'll say it again, I predicted now
that Uber is doomed mainly because the local powers that be
we're going to finally put a stop to it. Although they're
listening to this note, I will say that now I'm a little more
amenable to the idea of going with being say in your in Poland
or anywhere and getting an Uber and then asking the guy What
Would would you what would you like to show me around how much
money you want to give you have you know, whatever it is, that
would be fair.
So this is they they really and of course are not supposed to do
that. In Austin. I know they have done stings on the Uber
drivers to say hey man, you know, how about if I just give
you a 40 bucks cash, you know, and if they accept it then then
they get arrested.
So I can deal with a tax guy that guy you can actually ask
him in most parts of the world that gives you a little tour or
like in China for example to give you a tour whether you want
it or not. Because it's there's no way they take you there
anyway okay sorry. Onward I can't by the way, there's an
okay Kirk and now it gives us it's not an kurgans Kirk and and
Jeunesse Jeunesse CEO New York. 23456 Yes, he's great. Donation
I should, it should put me over to become a knight. Please call

pat robertson donate to the best podcast in the universe.
Everyone knew your may everyone's New Year be better

That's great. All right, Kirk. I look forward to your ceremony
later on in today's and
finally I can't find a note from her. Claudia Gerber in Lisbon,

yet another email address that I can't
find. No, I can't seem to find her either. So she's
silent. Claudia.
me she's from Lisbon, Ohio. We have other people in Lisbon,
Ohio, don't we? Yeah, go knock on her door. Find out what's
going on. Okay, well, it's always good to see our, our
period step into to pick up some of the slack. Sir Mark Dytham,
Baron of Tokyo, Grand Duke Steven pelle, smackers. And of
course, Eric and Kirk and Claudia Thank you very much for
supporting the program. These credits are real this associate

use these wherever credits are accepted and unlike the phonies
in Hollywood, we will be very happy to vouch for you. Then
please remember, we're doing the show on Thursday, which will be
New Year's Day.
And I'm going to remind people that we do have email or not
email, but actual postal mail that has backed up since I've
been traveling. Okay.
And you're up in Port Angeles now, right? Yeah. Okay, you
sound great.
Good. Thanks,
devora.org/and. And, of course, we always wanted to be out there
doing the very fine work of propagating our formula. Our
formula
is this. We go out, we had people in the mouth.
Shut us. A couple of interesting things happened around
Christmas. While we were all very distracted about, can I get
to the QA? Can I get it on Netflix? Is that on Netflix? Can
I get it on Netflix? Once Well, that's all everyone was talking
about him. I kind of watch a movie on Netflix.
And I get it on Netflix.
Can I get on Netflix? We had two things take place. Let me start
at home first. The NSA released what I would call their little
Christmas Eve surprise. They released 12 years of internal
oversight reports documenting abusive and improper practices
by agency employees. This would be you know, all the stuff where
they say oh, man, I accidentally traps him in from information
about an American and that was all wrong. Sorry. I didn't mean
to do that. Here's the problem. This thing is so heavily
redacted. They removed the the number that that tells us how
many times this has happened. What good is that? How many
times has this actually happened? Well, we can no,
because that has been redacted out of the report. Of course,
I've read this report for you.
Why why why would that number be redacted? What did what's the
importance of that number, that that's a threat to national
security?
I can't answer that, because these questions have not yet
been asked of or at least they have not been published if these
questions have been asked. I haven't I have not seen this. I
have not seen anywhere why. Now these were released in response
to a FOIA request submitted by the ACLU, which is the American
Civil Liberties Union. It has some funny stuff in there, which
the press is reporting on, of course, and why actually go
Yeah. i One instance. And here's the here's the here's the press
reports, in one instance, and NSA employees searched her
spouses personal telephone directory, without his knowledge
to obtain names and numbers for targeting a practice which
previous reports have indicated was common enough to warrant the
name love event. They know we have human and and saying yes.
What is surprising, again, there's there's really there's
nothing in here. of any value. Yeah. Okay. So we know that
stuff happens. And, and, you know, it is, of course,
embarrassing. But here, I have the report here there were
redacted of incidents involving the use of improper retrieval
strategies against redacted raw traffic files this quarter. But
what good is that? On redacted occasions during the fourth
quarter, analysts performed overly broad or poorly
constructed database queries to potentially selected or returned
information about United States persons, these queries used,
redacted, that produced imprecise results on redacted of
those occasions, the queries returned results which were
deleted or aged off, I mean, this is useless, it's useless.
And I don't understand why we It must be either the numbers they
must be so high this number, that it's just embarrassing, and
then figured we're just not going to release that and we'll
fight it,
I guess. Well, the reason for redaction is for this to protect
national security. Yeah, that would be one individual's
personal rights. Yeah, you're gonna take names have been
given a number just a number of times, or
you'd have to come up with some rationale to say that we have to
redact this number. How about this security reasons?
We are so the number is so high, that if if this number came out,
our enemies who want to kill us would know that we suck.
Therefore, national security problem, we think,
well, the number could be so low. Let's assume that Let's
look on the bright side here.
Where's John? What have you done with the real John's right
side? It could be like the number could be one or two. And
we can't let that number out. Well, if you look at the little
frightened view, it'll frightened someone.
If you look at the the document. The black stripe is longer than
just a one or a two. Oh, I'm thinking,
Is it like? Is it a one, two? So you can you can estimate five
number of digits. I'm seeing five digits is what I think.
Which I think would be I don't know if that's high or not.
Would somebody 20,000 Did some spying on their mates? 5000
times? You don't think it's a high number?
Yeah, I do. I'm just I'm Look, I'm just playing. I'm just
playing the game with you. I don't know why
the 20,000 is impossible to get six digits. No, I
think it's probably in the 3020 30 1000s. That's what I
think it is.
30,000 Oh, geez. What I think, well, that might be that would
make sense that I would redact that. I'd redact all numbers
over 10,000 You're hired.
Here, there's an opening. Other things are always an opening, do
something that they didn't redact. But I find interesting.
Yeah, I can see this happening. If you know, if you're doing
this all day long, and you're filling in numbers on them, you
can check this guy's phone number, this guy or this first
phone number, an amazing amount of times, agents entered their
own phone number. Which is reported in the report as a
mistake. No, in one unintentionally, it's not a
mistake. And NSA analyst is said to have targeted his personal
cell phone because he mistakenly thought it would be acceptable
to redacted. What the guy had targeted his personal cell phone
because he mistakenly thought this is a quote, it would be
acceptable to and I guess there's a name redacted or maybe
an agency or
is it acceptable to redacted? Yeah. So in other words, he
thought it was acceptable to and we don't know why it was
acceptable as acted. Yeah, I guess. behavior. Maybe the word
was behavior could be is acceptable behavior.
Acceptable? It says acceptable to
step to the boss. Yeah, it could
be the boss, it could be a different agency. It could be
the North Koreans could be any or the agencies
that was acceptable to the NSA. It could be could be I
personally, from that perspective, I think it
shouldn't be acceptable. I should be able to if I'm working
there, I should we'll look at my own number.
Well, that is not policy. That was, Oh, God, John, I don't
know,
bad policy, then I think you should be able to look up your
own numbers. Like it's like a vanity search. Don't you want to
look, put your name in Google and say, Oh, I didn't know this
was going on? Hey,
hold on a second. Who knew? I didn't know this was happening.
Yeah. I'm all good with data.
Well, let's move along then. And which I think is more important.
And I want to run a couple names by you. Now, this goes back to
the National Cooperative Research and Production act of
1993. And the and this means that if you are involved in if
the federal government asks you to participate in certain types
of activities, in this case, the Consortium for Homeland Security
Technology, then you can get all kinds of benefits like, you
know, payment in 30 days, but also indemnification. And so the
this came out to this is from the President, I'm sorry, this
is in two, not from this is from Patricia a brink director of
civil enforcement antitrust division, but she does say very
specifically notice is hereby given that pursuant to section
six A of the National Cooperative Research and
Production act of 1993. The Consortium for Homeland Security
Technology has filed a written notification simultaneously with
the Attorney General and the Federal Trade Commission,
disclosing the identities of the parties to the venture and the
nature and objectives of the venture. The notifications were
filed for the purpose of invoking the acts provisions
limiting the recovery of antitrust plaintiffs to actual
damages under specified circumstances, a groovy
position, I would say. So let's take a look at what this This
thing is doing you're interested, right? Oh, is that?
Uh, yes.
I'm always interested in this crap. The general
area of consortiums planned activity is to a enter into an
other transaction agreement known as an OT agreement with
the US government for the funding of certain research,
development, testing and evaluation of prototypes to be
conducted as a collaboration between the government and the
consortium and members. This is what we call a private public
partnership, cyber sharing to enhance the capabilities of the
government and its departments and agencies in the fields of
border and maritime security, chemical and biological defense,
cybersecurity, explosives, countermeasures, first response,
and resilient systems.
So somebody makes a germ warfare bomb and it takes out half of
St. Louis. They're good to go.
If they were doing it as a part of the consortium, yes.
Yeah, that's what I mean. Yes.
Now, tell me if you know any of these companies, I didn't
recognize a single one. Well, I know that we have a reasonable
reach. And there will be producers who probably even work
at some of these companies. So we want to hear what you guys
are up to. Here we go. The parties are the four the
consortium of homeland security technology in Washington, DC
Chesapeake cartridge Corporation.
Okay, they probably make bullets
that yeah, so they're in Blacksburg, Virginia, D and S
consultants Inc.
Suddenly have already started to sound like a bunch of Obama
packagers that got him a lot of money and next thing you know
they got a contract.
How about these guys? Interrupt tech?

Okay well if he looks like he just took a shower but he looks
like he was he likes to mark it like a like a grungy Mark Cuban
Thank you saying
crushed it I don't want anyone with indemnified from killing
people talking about how the his team crushed it
sounds like a bunch of kids just out of college. It is greater
amplify
Oh, hackathon they did a hackathon God a talent. This the
cyberthreat company.
This is bullcrap. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. So all right. Our
government at work. Yeah. I mean, our government is throwing
money away like this. Meanwhile, we have this kind of anomaly
play this clip. Amateur driving van.
Fresh embarrassment this
morning. Meanwhile, for the Secret Service, and this comes
after a very, very rough year.
It has come to light that the agency has been using untrained
volunteers to drive some of the vehicles in the presidential
motorcade turns out. This has been happening for a very long
time. Uber driver. Hi, my name is Jeff, with the President and
Uber presidential our new service. Why? The very latest
then Impala you'd think the middle of a presidential
motorcade will be no place for amateurs. For right there. Among
the Secret Service and the police just yards from the
president is an untrained volunteer. The president on the
way back from his morning workout in Hawaii, his SUV
buried in the middle of as many as 20 imposing Secret Service
black cars and local police escorts. Also in the middle of
the pack a few cars back from the president himself rose, the
lowly White House press corps van driven by well, just about
anyone.
I'm telling you, they shouldn't have Uber presidential. Yeah,
this is what a great idea, but I think Uber should jump on that
immediately. Hey, do you have a Do you have a governmental
motorcade and your shorter driver
the one picture they showed apparently has been going on for
a while they have this just say and one of the women who was
busted for this they will have a friend of mine I know a friend
who works at the White House she asked if I wanted to do it as a
casual it was and they showed a picture of one of these press
vans I swear to God it was a paddy wagons I guess against the
press guys in their blood in the back. That's funny. And it
because it was too many for them just a regular Escalade. It's
ridiculous now so that they don't pay these people that are
volunteers, and we're throwing money away left and right. And I
mean, I'm not seeing what the lot of this makes no sense.
You're connected the right way. You get a bunch of free money
and you get indemnified of all things. I'm sure this woman is
not even indemnified if she flips the van and kills a couple
reporter here's
what I don't understand. How stupid are you and I this is
this, we could have our future set. We can do with these
dickheads do put up a website and we'll do a hackathon.
Yeah, yeah. Anyone can actually. But you need the connections you
need the political connections. There's no doubt in my mind
there's political connections if you start digging into these
companies will be some guy who's responsible for the for these
deals. There's tons of companies in Silicon Valley that can do
these things. But they're not all connected the right way. And
that's why they haven't some of the venture capital firms always
have some political guy in the amongst the partners course. Let
me call Colin Powell is at Kleiner Perkins Yeah, Gore Vidal
is at Gore Vidal Gore Al Gore Gore Vidal Gore Al Gore Vidal is
corpse is that Kleiner Perkins Al Gore anyways, stuff like
that. Yeah, so anyways, no, I said anyway, I did not say any
ways. Must be my ears.
Well, anyways, then. Yes, on Christmas. While this is going
on, Vladimir Putin also released a little document of his own
channel. which is the military doctrine of the Russian
Federation. And guess what?
They've indemnified the system.
I've read through it and I've marked up some pertinent bits as
I have a translation meant for that, which is an approved
release a English version of the military doctrine of the Russian
Federation. Are you interested in hearing some of this?
I'm I'm not sure. Because it might be interesting.
Let me give it a try. I'll just skip around a bit. The legal
basis for the military doctrine consists of
what I would ask the question and initially, why is there such
a document?
It is very similar to if you look at our National Defense
Authorization Act, which is folded into the omnibus spending
bill, it kind of shows what we're going to do and what our
plan is. Take your word for it, go read the Constitution of the
Russian Federation generally recognized principles of
international law, international treaties, the Russian
Federation, in the field defense, arms control, and
disarmament, the federal constitutional laws, federal
laws and legal acts, President of the Russian Federation, the
government of the Russian Federation, this is what
constitute this, the constitutes the military doctrine. So this
is the strategy and the tactics of Russia, which was until the
year 2020. That's what this is, which includes the strategy for
development of the Arctic zone. This is telegraphing is what
this is. Hello, who thinks they own the North Pole and the
Arctic zone? And yeah, Denmark Now, America now? No, in
Finland, it's going to be us.
The middle, I think they have a claim to at least half of it.
Sure they do. The military doctrine reflects the commitment
of the Russian Federation to use to protect national interests
country and the interests of its allies military action only
after exhaustion of opportunities and applications
such as political, diplomatic, legal, economic information,
other instruments of non violent nature. So the kind of setting
up saying, you know, we don't really resort to this military
doctrine unless we've exhausted all other areas. And then they
have the following basic concepts of the doctrine where
they look at something could be a military threat, which would
be domestic relations characterized as a set of
factors that could under certain conditions lead to a military
threat. They have military conflict, armed conflict, low
local war, regional war, large scale war, military policy,
military organization planning, readiness, and system non
nuclear containment complex of foreign policy as a foreign
policy. And they now discuss the dangers that could possibly
evoke the the military doctrine, and I'm just skipping past a
whole bunch. The main external military dangers are a capacity
power potential organizations such as the North Atlantic
Treaty Organization and giving it global functions carried out
in violation of international law, the approach of military
infrastructure countries, members of NATO to the borders
of the Russian Federation, including through further
expansion of the block to destabilize these countries,
they're pretty much saying NATO is on our borders, they are
destabilizing countries that are not NATO members, and therefore
we can evoke
the we can do some of it.
Yeah. Here's one of the dangerous thing. They see as a
threat to evoke the military doctrine, the creation and
deployment Strategic Systems missile defense, which is, you
know, the, the missiles we had in Poland
inside ballistic missile system,
undermining global stability and violate the balance of forces in
nuclear missile sphere, including implementation of the
concept of global shot. Quotation marks. Are you
familiar with global shot?
To where you have a whiskey every time somebody says the
word?
No, this is going to be a show titled global shot, the intent
to place weapons in space. Ah, that's what I always say. If you
really if you really want to do it, right, you get your thing up
in the in space, so you can shoot anybody from your from
space at any time. And it's called the Global shot. The use
of military force and the territories contiguous with the
Russian Federation as allies violate the Charter of the
United Nations and other rules of international law according
to this document by the President. to Russia, the use of
here's the use of information communication technologies and
military political purposes for acts contrary to international
law, aimed versus sovereignty, political independence,
territorial territorial integrity of states and
threatening international peace, security, global and regional
stability. So they're saying your propaganda is a problem for
us. And here's the nature and characteristics of Modern
Warfare warfare conflict, as Vladimir Putin sees it.
Integrated use of military force, political, economic,
informational, and other non military majors nature,
implemented with the extensive use of the protests potential of
the population and special operations forces, pretty much
what happened in Ukraine. massive use of weapons systems
and military technology, precision hypersonic weapons,
their means electronic warfare weapons based on new physical
principles, which were flying saucers, comparable in
efficiency with nuclear weapons management information systems
and unmanned aircraft and autonomous marine vehicles
controlled robotic weapons and military equipment. So what
they're saying is we need to kind of go and do the same
thing. And what Putin says in this document is, we spend $50
billion on our military industrial complex. America just
spent $567 billion. We need to man up. And then he talks
specifically in this document. It can't afford
to man up No.
But he'll bank right
Can we have the opportunity to print?
We print the money? Yeah,
we print the money. And that's the cool thing about it that it
was so cool, cool being 70 or $80 trillion. That Hey, you
know, it's cool. Britain wants to spend, you want to spend 50
billion thing is a big deal. We'll spend a trillion
printing money without a doubt is cool shit. Yeah.
It's doable. Yes. All right. So do it without causing
hyperinflation, all these things?
No would work. Great. We're eatin mac and cheese. So the
President says he wants to expand the range of partners in
development cooperation with them on the basis of common
interests in the field of strengthening international
security in accordance with the provisions of the UN Charter.
And they are going to do that as the Russian Federation expansion
interaction with the states members of the BRICS, which we
Brazil read this as bricks right here Brazil, Russia, India,
China and South Africa strength layer collective security system
in the framework Collective Security Treaty Organization,
which had not heard yet the C s t o, but it goes along with the
Shanghai Cooperation Organization, which is also
going to be strengthened as a part of the military doctrine of
Russia. And so just scroll down to the bottom Good luck with
this. And then it says he wants to develop a military industrial
complex it says right here development I
already have one to develop with Hey, buddy, it's a bad idea.
Well, he hasn't learned development of the military
industrial complex. The main task of the military industrial
complex is security is effective functioning as a high tech multi
sector of the economy able to meet the needs of armed forces
and other troops and bodies in the modern armament, military
and special equipment and provide strategic presence of
the Russian Federation in the world's markets with four high
tech products and services. Now that's now you can say you're
going to kill people you're going to take out NATO states
but bitch if you think you're going to try and weasel in on
our sales now you got a problem.
Well, they've always done well against us in selling they're
not weaseling in they're a competitor he's the Europeans
are too I think that I think there's about some Melson just
simple sales I mean, they sell the India day Indians are never
warmed up to our gear ever.
That's why they have terrorism Come on. We even that may be
true. We Yes, this is what this is. This is predicted this is
nothing is just predicted to he's just predicted.
And by the way they do it advantage we have over the
Russian gear is that ours is field tested. We have a lot of
field tested gear that we can show a client that it works.
So I was surfing the channel we have movies.
That's right. And we're not afraid to watch him. That's
right. I saw on TV and I only watched for a little bit i But
it caught my eye. The Bitcoin bowl. No, yes, there was a
football game in Florida. Yeah,
right. There's a bunch of screwball the Bitcoin The
Bitcoin bowl and pays for the Bitcoin bowl. I don't know. But
then they have on the field it was Bitpay which is one of those
conversion guys.
Okay, that's the guys who sponsored the bowl then Yeah.
You know those things cost millions of dollars to sponsor.
This is
where this is obvious.com Bubble explosion time. I mean, I
expected this the sock puppet, the pets.com to pop out.
You know, I have one of those. I'm sure you do. Somewhere. I
should have been within one.
Apparently more than 100 St. Petersburg businesses will be
accepting bitcoin as payment, actually this month. So that's
just started because of the of the of the bowl. I don't know.
Couple of people asked me about exchange traded funds regarding
the Russian economy that we talked about on that note under
the HM flow show, I shouldn't just just tell you that the RS x
is the one you want to look at and see what's what, okay, it's
dropped from 30 to 15. As the Russian ruble has gotten
depressed, and it's over, sold right now, it's very interesting
possibility for people to know how to play these things. I've
been reading giving any marketing advice whatsoever, I'm
just mentioning the the specific symbol.
I've been reading through as many documents as possible
trying to understand the oil price dropping. And I came
across one theory, which I think came via William Engdahl, his
professor who
I have a theory who's overpriced all along, but go on.
Well, so what we look at is the September 11 2014 visit of John
Kerry, to Saudi Arabia. And this is being heralded as the moment
when he said, Hey, remember last time we screwed everybody, which
was what was that? 8086? Maybe?
It was somewhere in the mid 80s. Yeah, it was 86.
We really dropped it. And that's, that's when we
bankrupted Russia.
The first time. Right?
There was a lot of people saying and I can't give the guy that
much credit. lurch. But okay, so maybe he did. What the another
theory I heard, which, of course, that OPEC and the Saudis
have said, we're not we're not going to reduce our output
production. I believe, if you look at how many would they do,
like 1.9 million barrels a day, I'm just making this up. I think
it's something maybe 2.9 and but the only the demand is 1.6. So
they know they're over producing, which Yeah, that
should affect price. So I don't know if it affects it to this to
this level. But what I heard is the some American companies went
and showed the Saudis how to do saltwater fracking in some of
their older wells, which is a very dangerous apparently a very
dangerous procedure, because you have to kind of keep it moving.
You can't stop it once once the pressure is so high, which means
you have to keep pumping oil. And so the story I heard is that
they got duped they duped the Saudis into into doing the
saltwater fracking. And now they can they literally can't stop
the flow of oil from these older wells from these fracking wells.
Because it could they could blow it up. How's that sound to you?
Sounds far fetched. Okay.
I got three stories. I
like it though. Yeah, I like it as an idea
I thought it was interesting. Yeah, I
don't believe it. These guys it's not as though you got a
bunch of you know that that's that story assumes the dumb Arab
in the formula. Okay, we've got no petroleum engineers. They
don't know what the hell they're doing. It's a miracle. They can
pump a barrel. I don't I just don't think so.
I can just see it. Hey, hey, you stupid Arab. Hey, you like my
new Rolls Royce? Yeah, keep that oil pumping from your from your
saltwater fracking sun? Yeah, I like it to keep my eye on it. I
think it's funny. Meanwhile, China has stepped in to try and
will take all the oil you can pump it well, but they're also
apparently trying to become the world's new bank. This is
Bloomberg. I think that
yeah, this is an issue. This is a problem with us. Yeah.
Thanks to China Fifi Lagarde of the IMF, Jim Yong Kim of the
World Bank and to Kiko Nikau. The Asian development bank may
no longer have meaningful work to do Beijing's move to bailout
Russia on top of it, which they did through a currency swap I
believe, which is it's a great way that's what derivatives are
is the simplest form to say Watch out. So you kind of limit
your exposure some of the upside as well, but you certainly limit
your exposure and your risk on the downside if it comes to
currencies. Oh, my God, it sounds like I know what I'm
talking about. And they are aiding Venezuela, Argentina. And
yeah, this is this is potentially going to be a real
problem. If Well,
you know, we already sent him a message with those Hong Kong
riots or so you know, you don't have these in your country yet.
But
he has an umbrella.
Yeah, here's, there's an umbrella gift.
Do you like this umbrella? Yeah, pay attention.
So you guys, the other thing would be the message you guys so
you guys aren't doing well enough you your productivity and
all the rest of it, all the numbers and the economic boom is
not good enough for you. And so you're going to, you're going to
screw with the system that has made you one of the richest
countries into one of the biggest economies in the world,
if not the biggest, right? So that's what you're going to do.
Because you're not doing well enough. Okay. That's the message
you're telling us when you say this. And you think that
works with the Chinese you think they get all the other who will
yell I'll show you
know, I think we can send messages to them. They know it's
where their bread is buttered. They can go along with Russia.
The I mean, I guess the Russia they don't care. But the Chinese
they I think would bail out on this bricks thing in a second if
they really had to?
Well, to me, it seems like it's an alternative to the 2010
reforms, the IMF reforms, which we will not ratify, which is
what would allow China to be the number two spot in the, in the
pecking order of the IMF. So they have to do something, I
presume. And it's interesting.
Well, we're not putting up with us with a new reserve currency
actually getting a foothold. We put up with maybe a little bit
of action for the euro. I mean, it gets they have 10 or 20% of
the international trade agreements in euros. But now we
otherwise we can't print money, we'd be screwed.
Well, along with this comes and of course, I bought this new
cinema. And by the
way, we should mention the Chinese that if we get screwed.
The whole world's economy collapses. They're screwed, too.
Oh, yeah. It's like, we got it's like, we're like a guy with a
bomb vest. Pull the button down.
We're not going to buy no more iPhones. Were Boyka No, we
won't. This is what the Chinese secretly know. They were
American Yankees. You're not going to stop buying our
iPhones.
If we go completely bankrupt, if we have to actually pay off that
75 trillion or whatever, that's not gonna happen. So I'm a huge
would happen if we don't can't print money anymore.
What boost How are we doing? Did you check we're doing fine. With
printing, we're eating mac and cheese. We're doing fine. We're
doing fine now. But these guys keep they keep maneuver.
Meanwhile, the Nicaraguan canal is real. You were somewhat
skeptical when I started talking about this months ago.
And skeptical that they were what was I skeptical about? That
it was going to happen at all? No, no. I always knew that.
We're going to try to do something. Well, I just don't
think it's going to happen in terms of finishing it.
We have our producer on the ground, Colin. Hey, guys, in the
morning here from Nicaragua. The info on the canal looks like
it's moving on with they did a big groundbreaking on Monday.
And he sent us a couple of links. So they dug a hole. They
told the foreign press they would be picked up from the
hotel to come to the groundbreaking but not only did
the bus never come to pick up the press they held the event
five hours early. Because they didn't want any protests. Mr.
Mr. Wang, the developer made some statements about how the
land will be taken from Nicaraguans but paid based upon
market principles This is the eminent domain concept
this is good this is I was right yeah.
Local protests were few but but had oh some bloodshed apparently
not much. Just some cuts and bruises. Environmental Studies
lands assessments engineering plans are scheduled to be
completed or brushed aside by mid 2015 At which point
Construction is scheduled to begin this canal will be a game
changer in world trade says Mr. Wang other interesting aspects
of the canal include Lake Nicaragua which will change from
freshwater to saltwater holding
that's where that kills all the good so much for the start our
mental disaster this will never get that far
the canal will include well hold on. Do you say that but I
wouldn't be too quick when you know the canal will include a
golf course resort. For the for the elites Jack Nicklaus
designed course and three other resorts along its path.
So you can play golf while watching giant ships go through.
Well watching your
belching of carbon atoms stack suit.
So, okay, thank you for bringing that up. You reminded me of
something. You remember the President's science advisor,
John P. Holdren. He is the he is the guy. He is the guy who
advises our president on all things science in particular,
climate change. Then if you recall, Mr. Holdren, back in the
70s was on the side of global cooling. We right that guy, that
guy, this one, of course, he's on the side of global warming as
as one does that with the whites. Well, we don't call it
global warming anymore. We just change that to climate change.
And you remember he did this hashtag ask Dr. H. Yeah, I
mocked it. I said, really? And we read a couple of the fake
responses people saying like, Hey, how come you are all in on
global cooling and global warming? Answer that Dr. H. So
now they've taken I don't know if they had all the offensive
ones from him and just said, Hey, we printed them out here.
Could you answer these? And let me ask you, if people what we
exhale is carbon dioxide. co2 is
some mixtures, mostly nitrogen. Okay. But it's breathe in. You
know what? 20 20% oxygen, but some carbon dioxide in the most
went to like 70% Plus nitrogen. So we're breathing in nitrogen,
we're exhaling nitrogen lots. So
no matter what if we're alive on this planet, there's got to be
some carbon dioxide.
Well, there's no carbon dioxide. There's no plant life.
Robert Heston asked via Facebook. Do you know the amount
and rate of reduction in carbon emissions the world would have
to achieve in order to prevent an unstoppable process of
methane release from the Arctic areas? Well, I'm
so glad you asked me that on Facebook.
Arctic permafrost contains huge quantities of stored carbon,
some of which would be released to the atmosphere as carbon
dioxide and methane if the permafrost thawed as a result of
global warming. Similarly, there are large stores of methane
frozen into ice crystals under the Arctic Ocean, some of which
could also be released if enough warming occurred. Release of any
significant fraction of these carbon stocks would speed up the
pace of global warming in what scientists call a positive
feedback, which is a bad thing. Despite the positive label. No
one knows for sure how much warming would be enough to
produce this result. But it's thought to be considerably less
likely to happen if the ultimate warming is less than two degrees
Celsius, that is 3.6 degrees Fahrenheit above the pre
industrial value, then if the ultimate warming is greater than
that, that is one of the reasons why the nations that are party
to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change
have embraced a global goal of keeping the increase below two
degrees Celsius here comes to have a better than even chance
of meeting that goal would require a global emissions of
carbon dioxide to be about 50% below their 2005 value by 2050.
And close to zero by 2100. That will not be easy. But with
appropriate leadership from the United States, China and the
other big emitters, it can be done
so 00
Yeah, zero.
So the What Are we dead?
By the way, the know what they mean by Admissions and I'll say
that the natural carbon dioxide is a natural carbon dioxide in
the air. It's going to be stay there. Okay, so we have 78%,
high nitrogen 21%. oxygen in the atmosphere currently used to be
as high as 25. During the dinosaur era. That's why they're
so big. I think. Whatever the case, yeah, they just mean no
emissions, manmade. Emissions on top of what's natural. Yeah.
Well, meanwhile, have you looked at your old crap by horses? Bull
crap. Have you looked at Europe? Have you seen what's going on
Europe? Remember these
fights in shopping malls? No, no, we
got the fights in shopping malls, the poor children, the
poor, who are children, who had never seen
the way I want to interrupt for a second. I do want to do a
clarification for goes too far along. I do have the numbers on
OPEC. daily production, total OPEC, which is everybody,
except, you know, Canada and their Canada doesn't seem to be
in there. So that'd be more than just 31 point 6 million barrels
a day.
And what is demand?
Well, the demand is I don't have the demand numbers. I can look
those up too. But it seems as if that everyone wants everyone to
cut a million here and a million there but it's not going to
happen. Then this this is actually down from the C T shirt
is 2008 was 32 million went way down in 2009 which is When
things started to spike up, oh, that's cut production that's
make gas prices go up during Obama's administration anyway.
Well, the poor children of Europe as you know, John was not
cool man is now 11 years ago, I believe it was the only place
they would see snow would be in a snow globe.
Oh, you would never see snow again. They
said no children, children only no snow from the movies. And
from snow globes
traffic has remained heavy in the French Alps after a nights
which saw 15,000 people stranded by snow and forced to seek
emergency shelter. Many cars weren't equipped with snow
chains. Despite official warnings, the authorities have
since declared them compulsory on certain routes. One young man
died when his car left the main roads and fell 200 meters down a
mountainside. More than 80 emergency shelters were crammed
full overnight. The authorities said they had no idea how many
people that spent the night in their cars is quick. Your
previous volunteer says it's been more than 10 years since
we've triggered an emergency plan like this. It's really the
number of people I don't have the figures but it's really
extraordinary. Philomena at Shawn berry airports more than
2000 mainly British tourists were unable to fly home from ski
holidays due to the weather. Drivers heading towards ski
resorts were turned back on to motorways for departments
remained on alert for snow and ice as more snow was forecast.
The sciences and science then evolved
from climate change or global warming to climate change to
climate disrupt when there isn't climate weather isn't climate,
where there is climate extreme weather events. Now we will see
this is an extreme weather event totally explained as an extreme
weather event. Part of the global warming phenomenon
happens every year, though why you're so skeptical about this.
It's obviously what's going on. It's a climate event.
Oh, it's a climate as then emit event. Oh, okay.
We're gonna have more and more of these.
Already. Science.
Well. Alright, now you're ready for a little quiz.
I'm game for
a quiz. Okay, now this is a Christmas quiz. So So you made
can you get back in the feeling? Can you feel yourself back in
Christmas? Can you get through it? Can you do you need help? I
mean, will you be okay, you think you can do it?
I think so.
Maybe this always helps. And he's playing Jingle Bells very
nice. Listen to this report on NBC network television and tell
me what is missing. This is this is a little different. What is
missing?
What is missing? It's like one of those things where you show
the cartoon and I would picture next to it and something's
missing. Yes, yes.
What is missing from this report about Christmas? You ready?
Okay. All right. Finally
on this special night a question What does Christmas mean to you
make it to the presence the lights the music or getting
together with loved ones? We put the question to people around
the country and discovered once again that Christmas means
something a little different to everyone. We are
looking for the perfect Christmas tree. Our first
Christmas tree in our brand new house.
Christmases redemption. Love joy happiness. Freshman starts when
Christmas is awesome. time to spend with my family.
Christmas means having great food. Good drink lots of
friends. And red velvet cake. opening presents
for eggnog never heard.
Christmas is filling time
with your family. amazing gifts. said bring Jimmy toys.
Nice this usually on Christmas Eve I'm the one that vacuums the
house. Happy Hanukkah. Merry Christmas to you and your dogs
candy Christmas.
Happy New Year.
Merry Christmas.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year
ago and the question is what was missing?
Let's break this down. One thing missing of course was since they
had a gratuitous mention of of Hanukkah, there was no mention
of Kwanzaa but okay, well let that one slide that's like all
of this luck. Let me think what would what would be missing from
this particular network? Was this
NBC the national broadcast corporate?
Well, maybe if you think maybe NBC stands for the net National
Birth of Christ, maybe was listening from the report.
Good John C. Dvorak. Come on back to post Christmas. Man you
know, I'm not a church going guy I'm not a really you're
not you're an agnostic character if there ever was, but
come on, even I I'm seeing that this is kind of a war on
religion rap bull crap. They just say oh yeah we celebrate
the birth of the baby Jesus even kid sometime but maybe someone
said it but they didn't put it in that package.
No but they but you end up with stories like this was a kind of
disgusting This is the pig head vandal story that was a local
issue or Natalie
Parrish and Hazel, Massachusetts, a disturbing
scene on Christmas morning, someone stole the baby Jesus
from this nativity scene and replaced it with a real pig's
head. Local media say police have made no arrests and are
calling for the public's help to find out who was behind this.
Meanwhile, this small parish about 35 miles north of Boston
is dealing with a Christmas holiday that was marred by an
act of vandalism.
Now if you want to take Christ out of Christmas, even though
it's kind of in the word, if you want to do that completely,
let's just drop the holiday no more religious celebrations,
which by the way also bounces Easter so let's get rid of
Easter and Easter vacation. Let's get rid of Easter Easter
vacation which is now known not for you know they've taken
Christ out of that too and made that spring break. What's going
on at Fort Lauderdale Dale? Well, we're
here with spuds Mackenzie John, I'm glad you asked him we're
about to do the big belly flop contest. Look at those Hawaiian
Tropic babes.
Are there a lot a lot of drinking going on? I hear you
bet there is
John drinking is what it's all about. Hey, now, but thanks for
the report. You're welcome. Hey, babes. Hey girls, let's do
another shot.
So let if you're gonna take religious holidays out because
you're offending somebody who shouldn't be grateful to get
some time off whoever they are. I mean, the atheist hate this.
The bitches you hear bitching and moaning from the Jewish
community and the Muslims. That's why they slipped them
out. Get rid of these holidays, just eliminate them and make
people work those weeks where they slipped
in little happy Hanukkah.
And the little the little joke of it is of course was the fresh
day one asshole. Christmas marks a fresh new start. No riddles,
sugars, arcs a fresh new start jerk. Exactly. A holiday a
religious holiday in some fashion. Oh, it's not a holiday
for us. Whatever the case, just get rid of these religious
holidays and be done with it. If that's the way you feel. So the
President
did to NBC? Yes, NBC. The President did his podcast for
for Christmas.
It's just a one way it was the Michelle standing there. No,
there was one that two of them did together. Yeah, yes. Angie,
and she's standing there reading it. We're sitting. And he's got
his mouth open kind of mouthing the words on the prompter. It's
yeah, no, no, but I just wanted to just I pulled a little clip
from his podcast. It felt, how can I explain it? It just
listened to it.
Six years since the financial crisis have demanded hard work
and sacrifice on everyone's part.
It's kind of a wrap up of how great we're doing.
But as a country, we have every right to be proud of what we've
got to show for it. Okay, more jobs, more insured. A growing
economy, shrinking deficits, bustling industry, booming,
energy, bustling, booming. Pick any metric
you want.
How about you six numbers? Oh, I'm sorry. I can't use that one.
America's resurgence
is real, real. And we now have
like Alex Jones is real. This resurgence is real.
And we now have the chance to reverse the decades long erosion
of middle class jobs and then comes Yeah,
to drive in puking people around in your in your leased vehicle
for Uber.
We just have to invest in the things we know will secure even
faster growth and higher paying jobs for more America.
Are you ready? Yeah. What? Okay, let's find out. Oh, let me roll
it back just a little bit.
For more Americans, we have to make sure our economy, our
justice system, and our government,
economy, our economy, our economy, they just said economy.
He said our economy and our justice system, which is you
know, needs to be revamped. Because, you know, a bunch of
Klu Klux Klan guys running around killing black people.
And our government working not only for a few, but for all of
us.
Like the bankers, so some bankers in jail, Barack, how
about that? How I'm gonna start with that with our Justice
Department. What do you say holder? So some bankers in jail?
Oh, no.
I look forward to working together with the new Congress
next year on these priorities. Sure, we'll disagree on some
things. We'll have to compromise on others. I'll act on my own
when it's necessary.
he'll act on his own when is necessary, Heil Hitler.
Wow, beautiful. But I'll never stop trying to make life better
for people like you. Because thanks to your efforts, and new
foundation is laid, new futures ready to be written, we have set
the stage for a new American moment. And I'm going to spend
every minute of my last two years making sure we seize it.
There's a need for rescue mission, when the world is
threatened. The world needs help calls on America.
And that's the story. So that's how I would have done it, I
would have done a little more of that vibe than this. And then to
do production, they never ask us. I have two clips about war
on race, cops, you know, New York City cops getting killed
and all this stuff. And I want to play these two clips because
they are the two most uncomfortable things really to
watch. And let me explain. It is Ben Carson. And Alan West, both
black men. And what's so real the when I see these guys on TV,
of course, I can lift myself out of the slave mentality of the
general population with no agenda thinking cap on, but it's
feels so uncomfortable because you have black guys who are
Republicans that how can that be? Republicans are racist, you
know, so clearly, these must be Uncle Tom's then
they hate women. It's a miracle they ever get married? You know,
so this black guys. Yeah, they have to be Uncle Tom's and must,
must be Uncle Tom's and they're sucking up to the police. I
mean, it is the most uncomfortable thing to watch. It
must be so hard for some people, their brain must go into Ben
Carson first?
Well, there's no question that, you know, the blame game always
exacerbates the situation. And I believe it would be a very wise
idea to start talking about the good that the police do. You
know, we can find bad things about anybody. And if we just
emphasize those bad things all the time, it's called
demonization. And you can stir up
like Sesame Street that's called demonization, a lot of
bitter feelings about that individual or that group. We
know that tactic. We certainly shouldn't be engaging in that
with the police. How would any of our lives be if the police
weren't there, people would come in your house and they say, I
think I liked that television I'm taking better still you get
out I'm taking his house, you know, I mean, it would just be
chaos. The police are wonderful people. Of course, there are bad
apples and just about any group. But for the most part, our lives
are made much better by the police and every community.
So do you see how uncomfortable it must be for people to watch
this guy who by the way is a neurosurgeon. I mean, oh my God,
he's so smart and talented, but he can't be you can't be a
Republican and be black. And you'd love that. You can't you
gotta hate the police because they hate the black man. This is
screwing with my head. And by the way, I think Dr. Carson, you
are incorrect. In Texas if we had no police and someone came
into my house and said, Oh, I think I'll take this television
then he will be looking down the barrel of the judge so doesn't
quite work that way here in Texas
bus because the pretty much guns are open for everything. That's
right.
And guess what? Everybody's polite. Alan West is now Is he a
talk show host bye. Bye career. What is his vocal Alan
West is that he was a congressman who I think is nuts.
Oh, and he's black. Yeah, he's black. He's nuts. He's He's a
Yeah, but he's an ex marine pro military. He's over the top.
He's kind of a creep. I liked the other guy a lot. Carson is
great. But West, I think is a jerk? Well, I think
the most important thing we have to come to understand is that
leaders establish a climate on atmosphere in a unit or an
organization or across a nation. And when you have people such as
the president such as the Attorney General Eric Holder,
and then also Mayor Bill de Blasio. And you look at some of
the things have been said you go back to the Skip Gates incident
when the police and Cambridge acted stupidly, those were the
words of the President. Why do we believe that police need
retraining and then reorganization reforming? That
is some of the words that comes from Eric Holder. And then also
Mayor de Blasio who came in going after the stop and frisk
program and saying that he feels for his son, he feels that his
son is threatened by the police. Those are the type of the type
of climate and atmosphere that's been created. And you remember
after the grand jury decision in Ferguson, Missouri, it was
within two hours that the President took the stage to give
his assessment. Well, where is the President now, he should be
talking to these protesters and saying that this would not be
tolerated in the United States of America. We have a rule of
law. We have to have respect to regard for our police officers.
We have to honor our judicial system and our due process,
ma'am,
very good point. Yeah. Where was the president condemning all
this? Well, he was busy creating the President's Task Force on
21st century policing. He was by executive order this
establishment By the authority vested in him as president by
the Constitution and the laws United States of America. The
task force will be composed of not more than 11 members, which
is the wacky number appointed by the President. The shall include
distinguished individuals with relevant experience and subject
matter expertise in law enforcement, civil rights and
civil liberties, how much you want to bet sharpens on this
thing.
I would actually guess because Sharpton has a job in the White
House already that he won't get out. Get on this.
Okay, we'll check. The President's will designate two
members of the task force to serve as co chairs of the task
force as a woman. Yes, of course.
And you Yeah, and a black guy.
And one of them is gay. We're not sure which one because if
they both are both, they're both named Pat. Taskforce shall be
solely advisory. And so shall submit a report to the President
by March 2 2015. Will it then go away?
Yeah, this is bullshit. This is some Hey, man, I need some I
don't have a job. You know, yeah, Task Force. Me. Does
force. Well, you know, I pay like 80 grand because we'll get
more volunteers for the motorcade. Money.
Oh, wow.
Yeah, but I
lost cause why are we complaining about all this
stuff? This is just a lost cause. Let's see. Here's better
stuff
if you put it that way. Here's Okay. Here's better stuff. All
right. Here's the Colorado pot update. About time we had that
there was a marked one year since Colorado became the first
state to allow recreational marijuana. But this morning
Colorado faces a lawsuit from both Oklahoma and Nebraska.
They want the Supreme Court to rule the law unconstitutional
because of the impact on neighboring states very Peters
it looks at Colorado's rocky year in pot.
If skeptics wondered about the popularity of pot on January,
one Colorado residents answered with their wallets lines on the
first day stretched around the block.
So we're sort of like explorers here was like Lewis and Clark.
They didn't have it.
But Colorado's Governor John Lars legalization was still
skeptical. Hey, man,
I'm seeking out new worlds and new civilizations
sat down with him and February. Are you comfortable with the way
it's happened since in the way it's unfolding now? Sure.
I think myself and almost every elected official in the state of
Colorado, we didn't want to be the social laboratory. But our
voters passed by a large margin 5545.
And we accept that this is going to be one of the great social
experiments of the next 50 years,
Colorado now has more than 800 outlets. Denver alone has more
pot shops than Starbucks studies.
They've already done that one, haven't they? The as they
mentioned this, all it that's not entirely a fair comparison,
no
bullshit policy at the Brookings Institution these days, that
means watching marijuana trends,
but there's clearly a profit motive among producers. They're
not in the business just to you know, deliver some public good
and in the form of marijuana. At the same time, states have found
that there is a selling point around the taxation of
marijuana. That's an important part of passing these
initiatives. Indeed,
selling pot is putting a lot of taxes into the revenue pot. It
goes state and local levels. The state took in more than 43
million in the first nine months. Local Charities
collected millions more but High Times have come with some low
points. Like how to regulate edibles products like candy that
are infused with marijuana I mean, it allegedly led to the
suicide of a visiting college student who overdosed jumped to
his death
Alright, stop this report. Bull crap as a professional former.
All day all the time user of the magical herb known as marijuana,
you are the best spokesperson for the daily use. Model
Hey, if you're in an unhappy marriage, all you need to do is
self medicate. And you too can get your helicopter license
Well, the one you were gonna say I was going to say in all my
years Never have I ever come across someone who got so high
that they wanted to fly. Have on marijuana. Yeah.
Jumping off the building story is bogus and that's the best
they can do. Yeah. And
but then at the time this into edibles which I was not a fan of
I have, I have tried the brownies. And it was not my
thing because I was also addicted to the worst drug in
the world, which is tobacco. And so I was combining the tobacco
with the marijuana and the marijuana I quit just like the
cold turkey, tobacco that another story that took a long
time. And yeah, it took you over a year. And I'm now I'm not
what, two and a half years smoke free
and a half years sober,
sober. Do I get it did a coin challenge I get shipped
challenge. Yeah, I get a chip or a chip or somebody sent him a
challenge.
Well, I'm very proud of that. That was not easy to do.
No, no, I remember you doing it. It was like a you know, you were
that was bad when you were smoking because you were smoking
all the time you're smoking into your microphone. Yes. And what I
was worried
about some low notes, what I was worried about is that my voice
would change drastically if I stopped smoking, but really, I
couldn't imagine doing this show without the moments to go
because of course I rolled my own so they would go out that
wouldn't burn up my own tobacco and paper spark up like, okay,
it would be more energy and quite frankly, I do notice a
difference between when I was smoking or not smoking.
Yeah, you're more talkative. Really? Yeah, you're actually
better in terms of being you're a little bit a little bit
joyless. I mean, it's a little bit annoying. But you're a
little more like, Hey, kids, everybody into the pool, you
could get a job on a on a credit line as the as the activities
director,
would you prefer that I really want me to try going back to
this to No, no,
no, no, I can deal with it. You know,
is it not good? You feel as bad for us fine.
Sometimes you talk over clips too much. But it's but in a you
know, it's because you just have to keep going. You're like
You're like on Energizer Bunny. Something. You're like taking
amphetamines, where the pill. Everyone takes Adderall
bullshit. Amphetamines. There's like that. No, no. Because
you're not. You don't have the other thing would. It wasn't
good. You are more roasts occasionally. And they are not
very good at that.
At being morose.
I didn't like it. Yeah. What is morose? What is the downbar? Oh,
look it up. Oh, say you're a little. Little up and down to
does those drugs weren't helping you at all.
sollen sulky, gloomy bad camper do
you bring down all of a sudden you'd show up?
I know. Competition is what you were thinking. That's why he
didn't want me to do that.
Yeah, that's it. Well, while we're on, aren't you then? I'm
sorry. Yeah. What do you think about me? Let's play this Google
thing I got especially for you. I have a little ditty that was
done a local news on a some guy at Stanford. Who has Tourette's
now does he have the cool kind? No, unfortunately doesn't
the cool kind of cursing and yelling bomb threats at the TSA
Not that that's the kind of wish I had no instead I decided based
on my travel story when we're done with this just have
tics and twitches and digits and that says what this guy's got.
We used to call them digits. Have you ever heard that word?
I think I've used it misused myself as a digit.
A second before I start digit. That's what my parents used to
call it. They used to call judges. I think there was a new
made up word. Well, it might be digit. How would you spell
digit?
Gi GE T? She does a wide spell it.
Digit. Let's see. Digit facts. Fictional character.
That's good. Yeah, well, that's
good. Yeah, right. It is Oh, digit J i GT. I will look into
that homology of that later versus a story that is made for
me.
Austin Tubbs is a walk on third string long snapper for the
Stanford football team. So why is he noteworthy? Austin has
Tourette Syndrome a neurological disorder characterized by
uncontrollable body twitches rare for a varsity athlete yet
it has helped define an unlikely team hero. If you blink, you
might miss it. Austin Tubbs blinks often yet misses nothing.
I blink kind of sporadically. Which is one thing that I have
now which is actually kind of nice. Like fuck.
You can't do this to me. Now I'm blinking. Blinking Oh crap.
Good reason to do an audio podcast.
Oh, I'm blinking.
I mean, like people think
I have to not have to clench my eyes really tight. So my
eyeballs hurt. Okay, got it.
I'm learning all the time. It's not something that he hides.
It's something that he's there. Yet to
back it up. He says it's just
not something anybody hides. Is that what he said? No, it'd be
fun.
Yet misses nothing.
I blinked kind of sporadically. Which is one thing that I have
now, which is actually kind of nice. Except, I mean, like,
people think I'm flirting all the time. It's not something
that he hides. It's something that is
no confusion ever, ever. I had no confusion. Has anyone ever
said, Hey, are you flirting with me? Or are you just the
Tourette's? Silly Gerken JinJin tick guy. But it's also
something that's never been a problem.
When Austin was younger, it was a problem. The symptoms were
more severe, the audience less forgiving,
that used to be, you know, much tougher for him, you know,
younger kid in school, you know, kids are in school,
it was something that he didn't have to deal with. And that was
kind of something that he had to push through and kind of learn
how to handle for certain
points. I would try my shoulders. My head, I had blown
my hands one time that I wanted to, like make the least sense to
me. Oddly enough, that was on my most still when I was playing
football. I mean, like when I get down to play, I'm just like
a statue. Perfect Form.
And we have superpowers as as we all now know, on the show. When
you have Tourette's, you get superpowers.
Well, what the reason I brought this clip because it's kind of
cute. But was the he said at one time he had this he had to blow
on his hands all the time. And it made no sense to him. It's
more like OCD. Well, blood on his hands all the time. Anything
like Do you ever have any oddball characteristics that
came and went and you don't do anymore?
All of them come and go? Yeah, you want me to give you a list?
You want to really know what's Yeah,
I'd be interested I think the public would be so the the
blinking
thing, which of course is deadly on television, but I somehow
have managed to get away from that however, and unfortunately,
both camera people are now dead at MTV who worked there as we
thank you Facebook. I think Facebook just kills all my
friends before so they'd be counting down right and the way
MTV worked, it was but even live shows. It's the same thing
wouldn't matter. You getting ready to go and again the floor
director standing there. That would be floor director things
would it's called Eunice de su 543. And while while we're at
three, I'm blinking. I'm really going like this with my head
just to get it all out in the two one. Hey everybody. Welcome
back to MTV. That was Whitesnake. Two Did you like
Tawny contain there lay it out on the hood of that Jaguar
coming up next on the headbangers ball. We'll bring
you some more guns and roses. Keep it right here on the began.
And then I'll go back to take an intuition. So I could stop it.
Yes, what this guy did with his football. Yep. You can't be
twitching around if you're alignment in a football team
because it's a no no, that could be a violation, you could
violate the penalty penalty for motion.
And but often if I'm before I go into a building or a room, or if
I'll be outside on the street, I did this just yesterday. And I
just was I just really really was really hit. Just Twitch my
head a couple times really good. So the band's to run it out. I'm
going advanced ticker. Yeah, to run it out. To run it out. Yeah.
But please call it by its proper name. It's a digit.
Well, you said you were going to tell us some of the ones that
you've had come and gone with you. Okay, that you did a great
job of bypassing the question.
Oh, no, I'm sorry. But I told you about the really clenching
the eyes really, really, really tight. Then there's this. This
sound?
What's that? What is that? How's that a tick?
That's a guttural sound.
Ah, or actually you
hold on I'm telling
ya. I'm I'm interested. We're all interested.
Take your your right hand. Palm up. Yeah. Bend your elbow. And
then to make sure that your your pinkie is touching kind of the
middle of your tummy. It's a little to the right of the
middle of my chest. Right. Yeah. And then you combine it by
hitting your hands so the four fingers collapse and then do the
have no idea what you just described.
So my palm is up. Arm is is
you have a where's the where's the hand? Is it out a mile? Is
it up? No, no, it's put it almost against your chest. Okay,
it's alright. And then if you if you like kind of karate chop on
your chest that pinky will hit your ring finger or
do you want me to make noise?
Listen to this. So that's me hitting my chest but I can
combine it with the guttural sound Oh you're a horrible
Tourette's man. And then there's the the mashing of the ball of
your
foot. Oh, I never heard of this one. Yeah,
so you just standing there and then you just just on one one,
stretch one leg out and the ball of your foot and just turn it
around and then has to squeeze a little bit in the shoe until
just like you've done it enough and then it feels good. I have
no idea what that and snapping my toes but does that mean I can
in my in my shoe even I can cross my the toe next to my big
toe and like it like a finger snap and I can snap my No Yeah,
I'm doing it right now. Wow. Oh my god. Oh yeah,
that's astonishing actually yeah
That my friends is just the beginning I'm you know it was
great having sex with me as a ball baby let me tell you that
Yeah, especially with the
show my son moved by Jonah to no agenda Imagine all the people
who could do that and oh yeah, that'd be fun
well, that's fascinating.
I'm glad you I want you to know I have no shame in admitting all
this.
No, no your your you got your act together and why wouldn't
you? Why would you have shame that guy did a whole team thing
on television about this is what I tell these rats people don't
seem to have weighed in. Am I wrong?
You are incorrect. The biggest problem particularly with kids.
Oh yeah, no with kids I'm saying we as adults when they get there
actually. But it
takes it takes men people years and years to get their act
together. This is why who's the guy that does? The fan the the
fox animated families show the Family Guy Family Guy Seth, Seth
MacFarlane has Tourette's and he has twitches with his head. He
has blinking and I can you know I met him but I'm like, teach
fucking Tourette's. I see it. You can't keep it from me. The
Tourette's personnel you're
supposed to read some people that I sometimes miss.
They will take this to a level like really? This is like a
bomber actually, though. They'll go out and they'll make big
large movements with emotions to try and mask the urge that you
have. I gotta take a flash gotta take right now. I gotta tick. I
gotta did it. Now. The problem with kidney Ballmer has
Tourette's. Some version of it. Yeah. Oh, for sure.
Yeah, for sure. As you mentioned, this is I know,
Steve. Yeah. I can see it.
Oh, totally. And I mean, people get tics and stuff throughout
their lifetime just with Tourette's. It just kind of
stays and moves around. And sometimes you're lucky you got
like, just like I have one sometimes where I just flex my
right PEC. Which you know, doesn't really show
your bathing suit or whatever they show what are you doing?
That's where we use flirting with me. That's where we
start snapping the toes to keep you flirting with me snapping
your toes but with kids is what I tell parents who and I get a
lot of people ask me that be open make fun about it when your
kid has a new tick say that's a cool one. Man. That's I hadn't
seen that one. Yeah, let's call Adam show him that at the end.
Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. And it helps them so tremendously, because
the pressures off and when the pressure is off, then guess
what? You haven't ticked for a whole 10 seconds. Wow, that was
good. Maybe you can go another 10
Did your tics increased or decrease when you are daily
users of pot
made no difference. Strange. I thought it would it would make a
difference it does
for Spezza for certain kinds of spasmodic episodes and seizures,
if anything while you're just calm in general. But what your
mind gets kind of you gets taken away like oh man, I gotta take
real bad and then you just do this slower.
Slow takes takes. Anyway, alright, enough of that.

blades. Did you bring it up there? You got the bang? Yes.
Okay, gentlemen, step forward, please. All three of you are
about to join the illustrious group known as the knight to the
Norwegian roundtable and we've got some names there as well. So
I hereby pronounce the que de ser curve. The Happy Valley, sir
Roy of white shimmer horn and certainly Zippy Lusitania. For

the list, always a favorite of our Knights and Dames
roundtable. Go to nogen the nation.com/rings and get on the
list.
It was asked cream with bear filling.
Yeah, that was Yes. Don't you remember that? That was ugly. It
was a well it was some bit we played. And at certain point we
I think you were the one that said why it was it was ice cream
was with something else but somehow it came out as asked and
bear fillings. And it just I don't know it just stuck. Ah, I
don't even really remember what clip it was. Can't find it now.
As cream. Yeah, I remember very specifically. And it wound up on
the list of here's the ice cream and bear fillings night reward.
And we go let me say well, something to be looked in for
for
Yeah, we'll do some research
for a future show. All right, but I have one for you here.
This will just make you laugh. Did you see McLaughlin group by
chance.
Now Now we're in Port Angeles where I tried to get some clips.
I gotta get them off the TV. I mean, I'm sorry, off the
computer because the TV consists of Roku X Xbox Live. TV.
I got one of those fires. Amazon FireTv sticks.
Oh, yeah, yeah, that's just a Roku box and a stick. It's
impressive. Does it have the sling box? Yes. Sling
box app in it? Yep, it does. And,
Okay, nevermind. I be able to tell you about
lawyers. What's disappointing is you know, it looks all cool. And
you stick it in like, Oh, this is dynamite. But then you have
this hokey wire that has to go to a power supply. They couldn't
get the power out of the HDMI.
It's HDMI, it's HDMI,
but it still has an external power wall wart. But that's
sucks Yeah, it's very disappointing and the design of
where this this wire sticks out is wrong. Because I'm mine if I
plug it into the side HDMI port and the wire is in the middle of
the stick and it's popping up and then goes down, it's dumb.
It's very strange design decision.
They got some issues with their high relative safety with that
phone they made.
Oh, that was that was a collector's item, instant
collector's item. Anyway, this is Eleanor Clift. Eleanor, as
you know is is is probably next to Rachel Maddow. She is the
quintessential Obama bought just a different generation. And as
you know, she loves her saying that our president is a
constitutional Voya how to do
well, you Yeah, you you love doing that
as a constitutional lawyer and then on the cliff. Yeah, so here
she is with her. Then she's in Congress. And Pat was at Pat
Robertson, who's on the show, Pat Robertson, Pat Buchanan.
That's the one Pat Buchanan it's great to watch this particular
segue because he is looking at her and his mouth is open. He is
so flabbergasted by the the the luggage that is coming out of
her pie hole. This is about Cuba. Oh, it represent of course
all my Obama bot friends who I stalk on Facebook are all what
is everybody saying about Cuba? All the Oh bots? You I'm sure
about time. We can't wait. Let's I think yeah, we can't wait. We
can't wait to go to Cuba. Everyone, let's book I take
instant cue Bye, everybody. No drama, Obama has opened it up.
So here she is, with her misconceptions of what Cuba is.
This is the soft landing for the end of the Castro regime. Nobody
is quite sure what comes next. But this certainly does open up
the opportunity for more small d democratic principles.
And let me say, China, Nixon went to China and Mao continued
with the madness of the Cultural Revolution. And then the Chinese
what they did, they tried to open up, they brought in the
investment, they bring in the capital, they bring in all of
manufacturing everything and try to maintain a police state
dictatorship, and they maintain their dictatorship very, very
well. This is what the Castro brothers are going to try to do.
It's a very tough thing to do. And then of course, much smaller
and much closer and
the rest of us are all going to be rushing to get to Cuba before
it turns into Miami Beach. While it's still that unspoiled,
seemingly plain and unspoiled. The classic cars from the 1950s
and 60s Toilet Paper cars are the cars people want to see Cuba
as becomes more
this woman is delusional
is funny though.
I can't wait to see the cars from the 1950s Bobby soxr
I think what you got out of that clip was a strange kind of
Democrats do this more than Republicans although they do it
to a strange sentimentalism it finally strength you know
because oh those cars those old cars those old buildings are on
you know their mod you know you can still see this kind of if
you want to really send them out fine. Some of these old Eastern
European bloc countries that never got any money or tourists
it's yourself
a lot of them get yourself a lot they enjoy it
a lot and drive it around. I
have I had a lot of the A $4 What a Oh, yeah, had a lot. The
four door was actually my first car before and but I didn't last
long because the brakes just went out just completely.
Is that the one to plastic size that
would pop out? No, no, it was made of some cheap rusted metal
crap. Okay. Yeah, was not a good and I had a job on motorcycle,
which was kind of cool. A Java Java. Java, Java, I think that's
Slavia J Awa. Java.
That's a winner was it a two stroke?
No no no it was four unfortunately but what's cool is
in the Kickstarter was your your gear shift so you push your the
gear shift is on the left oh my god we pre push the thing in and
then rotate it backwards and then it was the Kickstarter was
very strange. But it was almost impossible because it was left
foot so then you had to put it on the kickstand get to the left
side of the bike and then
there was a left Kickstarter yes
but yeah, you couldn't you couldn't do it so yeah, because
the compressor was one cylinder 600 CCS or something was crazy.
This East Bloc crap
Yeah, he's bought. It was bought rap
was the word. And you want to go back to the mat and
I want to get my my clips out of the way from Cuba. Oh, I have a
Redux that we can skip. It's not important, but why one way but
then we have NAS too long. And then we have the reminiscences
of the name of that Barbara Wawa, she is on giving talks
about when she did early interviews. She was the first
person to interview him when he cast her at the place. So that's
just us that just the intro clip is Cuba Castro gun and lap clip
and then you realize that she this woman doesn't think on her
feet he was
you went to several locations. Well, what we did mostly was
traveled through the mountains to the Sierra Maestra mountains
with him. As he drove his own Jeep, I sat next to him with his
gun in my lap and hard candies because he would stop way to
children. And he would give them hard candies. He did not like
the personification he's there are no pictures of Castro as you
go along the way. You know, it's not there or not the way it is,
for example, I went I went to Beijing and you saw pictures of
Marvis. I'm going back, Saddam Hussein and Saddam Hussein, you
do not see this. He does not. He did not want it to be one, man.
Yeah.
All right. That was his gun in my lap. Notice she had a gun in
her lap. I just hadn't seen it while I was there. Now the
second clip, which I want to play is the this very short clip
and this was part of this interview with Barbara. And I
think it begs the question do this guy should be called out.
Remember, by the way that he said that if it would not be
lifted the embargo if we lifted the embargo, he would shave off
his? I wonder if he has
Hey, we know he hasn't but he should.
Is this the but is this the old Castro or the Castro brother?
Well, the old Castro is still alive.
Right? But it was he supposed to shave off his Yeah, the Castro
brothers got nothing to
do with anything till recently. Yeah, yeah, he's got to shave
off his beard. Hey, we got to call him on this. Okay. All
right. Go on with what you were. I only have one last clip then.
Is it something you want to say for the end of the show? Yeah,
yeah. All right. I would like to return for a moment because I as
I teased in the beginning of the program, I learned so much from
the mat and Murray sitcom this week, I really am up to date on
all kinds of world affairs. So let's go back one more time.
And talking since this k is
not pick up to pick up. Where were you left us, John, with
Cuba. Did you know this?
Did you all notice at all that two days after the big
announcement from the President, the Deputy Prime Minister of
Russia, Mr. Wu goes and showed up in Havana for security
meetings with Raul Castro and others.
Are you looking forward to visiting as well,
Secretary looks forward to visiting them as Rob jobs is not
the only people can visit him we can we can get them to mad.
Right. But two days after the US and the Cubans announced that
they're going to move towards restoration. Deputy Prime
Minister what goes on who has been no shrinking violet, when
it comes to the use of Russian military showed I mean, was in
Havana for meetings. And I'm just wondering, did that get
onto your radar screen
at all? Nope. And I wouldn't read anything into it.
I wouldn't read anything into the Deputy Prime Minister
visiting two days after we announced it thank you,
you know, yes, Saki always goes to her. She's got her well
organized. She's probably you know, a neat freak, well
organized and she doesn't just shoot off the hip. She would
have a tab and she'd flip to it and she'd read the statement and
that would be that this is a mystery is so much better than
the Marie Harf as a as a spokesperson. Yes, but Marie
has Matt in her pocket so to speak. Notice no he's
I think he he's in her pocket.
Well, yeah, come in. I'm so it's so clear to me. These two are
boning. It's obvious. Not all questions asked by Matt. But
this was very interesting. With a great question. And this
really gets Murray all mad. This is about the the Iraqi Air
Force.
So did you say Iraqi Air Force also help
correct. The Peshmerga forces on the ground around Sintra were
supported by coalition and Iraqi army air support.
But does Iraq have any air defense system and
clearly there was some helping here? So the answer would be
yes.
The answer is really no. So she gets called on this. Iraq
doesn't really have an air force they have. They have two planes
capable of shooting Hellfires. They were out of hell fires and
then these two aircraft couldn't even shoot the hill fires
anymore. So what exactly is this bullcrap that you're giving us?
Harf? And yes, well, it says here on my paper that they
helped. So clearly they do have an Air Force. No.
Are you read her? She? She does deduction? Yes. If A then B.
Yes. Yes. It constantly when it's not in the know it's not
appropriate. It is wrong. It's totally wrong. And you can't do
that in that position. We could do it.
Well, yeah, this is all we do.
But then we correct ourselves. They don't nobody cares. But we
don't we're not, you know, officials of the government
Correct. To more in this particular, then that's not
the approach of Well, clearly. Those words just to insult the
other person, because obvious clearly, it's clearly you did
too, and to yourself, why do I have to do
why do I even have to talk to you, you little chromogen? The
China's? On the heels of what we discussed earlier, are doing
what you do when America is trying to show you things such
as well be UCC, you call her right out, John, you said, Hey,
China, hey, you China's look at this umbrella umbrella
revolution where guy going on in Hong Kong? Ha ha, you want some
of that on the mainland? You want some of these? So what
would you do if you were the Chinese? John?
I don't know. I never got a clue. If I were you, that was
the Chinese say whatever you want. Okay.
And then there's also state media reporting that there's a
law under consideration to place new regulations on foreign, non
government organizations operating in China.
So this is this, of course, you know, what's going on? This is
what Russia did. And they said, Hey, you got to register as
foreign agents. If you want to be an NGO, non governmental
organization, these are the people funded by numerous go
between organizations, most notably the National Endowment
for Democracy, but there's a lot of them all flows
traced back to the State Department, s ai, D. United
States.
Aid. What is it? What does AI D stand for United, you know, USA,
United States of America, international aid for
International Development.
Any reaction to that? So
we're aware of those reports? I think that they're considering a
new law to regulate these foreign NGOs working in China.
Obviously, we consistently emphasize respect the rule of
law, independent judiciary, free flow of information, and robust
civil society are really critical to any country, but
certainly in China. That's a message we give them constantly.
Do you have any specific guidance or analysis about
whether this law would actually place undue restrictions on
American NGOs operating?
I haven't seen specifics on what would be in such a law, but
obviously, we believe that things like an NGO should be
able to operate freely. But I haven't seen the specifics of
this proposal.
Yes. Should be able to should be operating freely for a color
revolution. Yeah, yeah, it makes so much sense. And then finally,
I just want to reiterate this one State Department briefing
was only 23 minutes. We learned about Sony, big Sony to be able
to be compensated by North Korea for the damage of actor
salaries. Last chapter, we'll call the lawyers for that. We
learned that North Korea is being discussed in the Security
Council and North Korea is not attending because they say the
bull crap. We learned that Iraq has an Air Force Shut up slave,
they have an Air Force. We learned that the Cubans were
visited by the Russian Deputy Prime Minister two days after
our big announcement, which is you just don't read too much
into that. Don't read too much into that because not nothing to
see here. And we learned that we have nothing we can't tell you
about the internet outage. It's to North Korea's internet. And
then finally, if that wasn't enough, we have this
on the same issue extradition. There was a fresh request from
the Turkish government. According to Turkish newspapers
for the United States to extradite Fethullah Gulen, the
Pennsylvania based Imam
now this of course is our favorite guy who you probably
first heard about here on the show. Absolutely. For to like
Glen no one had been talking about for Tula Glen and I don't
think Murray Hardy even knows who the guys talking about right
now. But he's been in she would. She's looking at maths, you
know, both.
Seth Rogen.
Straight out, not up straight out. So the turkey has issued an
extradition request for for to law Gulin where we know has been
under CIA protection in his compound in Pennsylvania. All of
his people are being fired, thrown in jail. Who are they?
Because of course he was supposed to be the Khalif. He
was when the caliphate comes. The whole idea was this guy was
supposed to be the man Mr. Guy, our guy, of course, He's our
guy. And this has failed spectacularly. And now Turkey is
asking for him to be extradited, and we learned something.
Well, as a matter of long standing policy, the State
Department does not comment one way or the other on pending
extradition requests or confirm or deny that request might even
exist. But you do have an
extradition treaty with with Turkey signing 70.
Oh, did you know that? No, we haven't a good one. extradition
treaty is fine. We don't comment on specific, fine, fine, that
may be fine, but we just don't come Fine. Fine.
This is gonna be interesting to watch how they're gonna deal
with this.
Well, wait. So here, here comes Matt. Because Matt's not just
taking this fine business. He hears enough of that in the
bedroom with her
comments on specific. Does that go beyond that? Once an
extradition has been completed? However, you will talk about it.
Yes, I can. I'm assuming that was the case with Noriega, so,
well, if it was the case with Noriega, then it must be the
rule.
If it was the case of Noriega, there must be the rule,
or some sort of code.
Let me check. Let me check. I would have seen some app but
there's I don't want to make a sweeping generalization.
All right, everybody. Klaus, another round of the show. Today
our kiss ing they are in the out in the dirty alleyway. This mash
Murray key is
did just a new medical test. I didn't know about it. They could
use it around here. Okay, but I guess it was developed an
EGR let me just don't even say it I'll just play it. I got the
clip ready. Hit it two men
exchanging rings on board a boat on the river Nile in a mock
wedding ceremony. Even though homosexuality is not against the
law in Egypt. The two men in the video were arrested, although
they weren't later released after so called medical tests
failed to prove they were gay. Egyptians say they are routinely
harassed by the police or observers say the authorities
have been known to go on gay websites like Grindr to set up
sting operations.
ZOMO Philly
is a sting operation on Grindr, which I think is an in app
purchase. A good one John. I like that has not clicked for
the day. But
now I do have this other one which is an interesting this is
funny because it seems no one's ever brought this up during the
era where people were in their jokes written about cartoons
about in the New Yorker, were people sitting in their bed on
their laptop, doing stuff you know, they're made, sleeps,
whatever. But now all of a sudden a study is shown and I
don't know what the basis for this is. And I suspect Amazon
even though the Kindle was never mentioned, but this is the iPad
health problem clip.
That new ereader or tablet you guy for the holidays may have
been a great gift. But if you're not careful, it could really
ruin your night. A new study shows using light emitting
electronic devices in the hours before bedtime may make you feel
more tired. The next day, researchers had 12 People read
books on an iPad before bed for five nights then the group
switched to pay for books. The test subjects reported feeling
more sleepy the next morning after being exposed to screens
even if they got a full eight hours
Yeah, I know I didn't get I just got this clip last night so I
didn't get I couldn't find out who was behind this quote
unquote study but I suspect the Publishers Association some of
course but yeah, it was interesting. I like it. And I
think it's true.
No doubt. Oh, already. Somehow we managed to talk quite a bit
once again. Well, John, thank you for 2014

I remember by the way that he said that if they lifted the
