And you get to wear a tux and you get to look like James Bond.
Adam curry, John C. Dvorak. It's Thursday, October
8 2015. time once again for your gizmo nation media assassination
episode 763. This is no agenda, putting the New World Order on
notice and broadcasting live from the future and FEMA Region
six in Austin, Texas. Good morning, everybody. I'm Adam
curry
and from Northern Silicon Valley where I'm in the presence of
John C. Dvorak. Hill. Got a nasty note.
You got a nasty note? Yeah. A nasty gramme
from the donation.
Oh, do you want to talk about it right now? Yeah. Are you upset?
Well, let me see if I get it. Right. Is that how you want to
you want to start off with a nun a negative
note? This is a PS nothing quite like it. It's from Richard
Moffat, who's common donor. I recognise the name. Yeah, he's
been around. Yeah. He's also part of the random number
thesis, which will be discussed later in the show. Okay. But
this is PS. PS. John, please prep a few minutes before the
each podcast programme.
Okay, what?
Two and a half hours of prep before he started the show?
Well, that's all you do it before the show. I mean, the
night before, I was gonna say the week but I'm talking about I
get up two and a half hours before the show and I just work
and that's, that's 630. Yeah, for you. Yeah.
See, I get up at 630 in the morning.
As you get older, don't you just wake up by yourself at 630?
Yeah, sure. That was supposed to have like, Oh, I'm waking up
begins. But it doesn't seem to be alright. As much sleep. But
John, we got a lot to do today. I've never seen so many
distractions in my life. So move on with the negative stuff.
Let's get it out. That's it. That's it. You should just prep
more. Yeah. Oh, my goodness. You and I are emailing each other.
It was 2am for me is midnight for you. And I'm sure you didn't
go to bed at midnight. For what? Well, you were prepping last
night you prep you prep. That's what I'm saying.
Yeah, no, I do all my clips the night before you prep. You prep.
Well, I mean, I get the clips, but then I produced the clips in
the morning.
Well, I gotta tell you, man, that was just first of all, I
have horrible allergies. It really hit
me. Oh, here we go again. Every year this happens.
Yeah. And it's like you can't get away from it. It's not in
the brochure for Austin. I'll
tell you that. It's not on the brochure. And you claim that
everybody has this problem? Usually not
the first year but the second year you get here. That's when
it's going to hit you really hard. Yeah, as bad
it's the means the that means that the environment that you're
in wants you to get out.
Only the only the strongest survive is the way I see it.
This is the get the douchebags out. Hey, hippie, get out. Okay,
I saw nothing but distractions. I saw companies fighting each
other. I see great distractions. I see the military industrial
complex doing very, very questionable things.
Well, that's this is not news. Yeah, except when they actually
got the piece. Did you see the pieces float? I just caught it
this morning. What's that? About? Snowden wants to leave
Russia he we this guy saw this. It's just like propaganda. This
is like I'd rather be in prison. Yeah. Then be in Russia.
Yeah, well, this is the extraction part of the operation
now that he's
that's what I have to assume that that's what it is, is the
extraction part. Oh, I have a great picture, which I'm gonna
put in the next newsletter. I was gonna put in the last
newsletter, but I didn't I didn't I've decided to keep the
newsletter a little shorter. But in the next years I have a
picture of of Snowden. It's all over the place. Yeah. You when
he's a little younger and his. He's in his tuxedo hanging out
with Hayden. Michael Hayden, the CIA guy.
That's an old picture. I'm sure we've seen that before, haven't
we? I don't remember seeing it.
I think I remember. And I think it's when Hayden was at the CIA.
And that's when he was getting his assignment. And you get to
wear a tux and you get to look like James Bond. Oh, yeah.
Don't we start with the war on crazy if you don't mind? No, I
don't care. Okay. The war on crazy is pretty much how I think
we view the call for comprehensive gun control
measures. And it was it was very interesting to see how we had
this huge vacuum created when, of course you identified or much
earlier than the mainstream the hospital that was was bombed in
Afghanistan. And it was it was it was the way I saw this happen
is like there was just everyone was like, Well, what are we
going to do and it became really big and there was this huge
vacuum and then Hillary Clinton slid in with a with an
unbelievable, just blanketing of primarily NBC affiliated
stations. She was given massive airtime including Saturday Night
Live. And it was it was well coordinated because of course,
as you know, my name is meanie on the Hillary Clinton ready for
Hillary emailing list. Thanks a lot, John.
You're looking back on I think that was an accident.
It was an accident that you subscribed me as meanie to the
ready for Hillary Hillary campaign. Yeah. So I get all
tonnes of emails and and one of them says Hillary Clinton is the
only person to come up with comprehensive gun control reform
plans. Did you see or hear anything comprehensive?
No. This you can say that?
Well, you can say it but if you don't actually publish anything,
or if you listen to this on to me really unbelievably insincere
woman standing there talking about what she's going to do. I
thought it was clip worthy. This epidemic for some reason she
recorded this on the 78 rpm record. I'm not sure what
happened to the sound on this
as she went away before you play any more of it. Is she going to
discuss the fact that gun violence has actually decreased
significantly since the 1990s? Since the 90s, as the name let
me think are no,
this epidemic of gun violence?
Wait, what are you talking about? There's no epidemic is
decreased. Thank
you. We'll continue you just keep interrupting because it's
exactly what we need to do. Oh, boundaries?
No, it's no limits of any kind.
There's plenty of limits. All right. Well, who do laps this
up?
Well, Mimi loves it. Me, me. Adam. curry.com.
Mimi. Oh, that Mimi.
And when this happens, people are quick to say that they offer
their thoughts and prayers. That's not enough.
No, no, no, it's
how many people have to die.
We actually act. It's time for us to say, Wait a minute. We're
better than this. Our country is better than this. But we need to
go back. And with all of
our hearts. She's got this quiver in her voice, which is
really she's doing a good job on this. Yeah, that's what the oh,
this was her town hall. Oh, man, you have this Isn't
this that? Oh, I got a couple of clips from it.
Working not just in Washington, but from the grassroots up,
demand that we have universal background checks. We have to
close the loopholes. loopholes. You know, we've got what's
called the gun show loophole,
the gun show loophole to go or
check it and we've got what's now being called the Charleston
loophole.
Oh, that's the Charleston loophole.
Oh, how is it now being called that? I've never heard of
it. She coined it. This. This is how you wrote this is what you
do.
We also must address the very serious problem of military
style weapons,
military style weapons. How about getting rid of military
style cars? That's always bothered me. These square pieces
of crap that are roaming around on the streets, military style
in
our streets. We have got to keep guns out of the hands of people
who should not have them. domestic abusers. people with
serious mental health problems.
You must make a list you must make an A list put you under
list. What is a serious mental health problem? Is Asperger's a
serious mental health problem? Is autism a serious mental
health problem? Is Tourette's a serious mental health problems,
I could be holding a gun and just start ticking and then the
thing would go off could kill people
that could happen. That's actually one of the little
that's one of the kind of one of the things that happened in the
movie spy. How about McCarthy? How about depression? Yeah,
absolutely. You know what, because then people should you
know, I'm not going alone.
That's right. So we must make an A list. We must have list a
particular I
guess we should be
a better tracking and record keeping list. So many of the
parents of these precious children have
listened to this show. Listening. Now. She's breaking
it down into quiver. He's
good as children's it's psychopaths she doesn't even
have any empathy Listen,
tracking and record keeping is talking so many of the parents
of these precious children who were murdered have taken the an
unimaginable grief that they have been bearing and have tried
to be the
oh this this this part of this rather this is part of that
scheme with that they told Hillary she's got to have more
empathy she's got her last show they got her now ball is crying
on cue crying on cue.
The quiver is good. And I want to try and replicate it because
she's my master now she she's my Guru Ram played again, and have
tried to be the tribe of dry Valken
Can you tell me how to do that? I don't know how well he sex
with that woman.
Depends on what the wording the meaning of the word is is tried
Hillary
and have tried to be the voices that we need to hear. Now
ideally what I would Sorry, that was an edit I'd love to see is
gun owners responsible gun owners hunters form a different
organisation hunters take back the Second Amendment from these
extremist extremists.
Man Oh, man. Oh, boy. Okay, that sounds pretty comprehensive to
me. I don't know exactly what she said. But it sounds pretty
said that we need make lists. Meanwhile, now I've been a big
fan of that too. I've
list making you ever heard of Schindler's List?
I have a checklist for travel. I have a travel check jammies, and
I'm constantly on the kids, the my wife and everybody else. They
travel. And they show up somewhere and then they go oh,
I've got no checklist you didn't have my black wire was your
checklist.
So I didn't see this myself. But it was sent to me cuz I don't
watch Bill O'Reilly on the democratically controlled Fox
News Network. But he had the publisher of the Roseburg beacon
on the show, and got some local flavour and colour about what
people in the community of the Oregon Community College are
feeling about President Obama's using this event for political
means. And I ended there's one little gotcha at the end that I
want to talk about. There's a rumour President Obama might go
to Roseburg Douglas County.
The funeral starts Thursday, and
I guess they will extend into next week.
How will the President be treated
if he does indeed travel the Roseburg? Well, I think the
President first of all is not welcome in the community. And
that isn't just my opinion. We've talked to dozens upon
dozens of citizens, some family members of the victims, foreign
elected officials and you may have a copy if you don't, I'd be
happy to read from it on the air that our Douglas County
Commissioners along with our Douglas County elected sheriff
who was very popular, and our chief of police all came to a
consensus language about him not being welcome here to grandstand
for political
but just encapsulate why
they don't want President Obama to come? Well, the bottom line,
Bill is that a number of people believe that when the President
opened his press conference, we still haven't finished counting
the bodies on the campus right behind me. We haven't identified
whose children were killed and who's we're not. And even at
that same moment, he is saying some people will accuse me of
politicising this issue. And he goes on to say, but it should
be. So he not only acknowledged that it could be politicised, he
was doing so deliberately. So now he wants to come to our
community and stand on the corpses of our loved ones, to
make some kind of a political point. It isn't going to be well
received not by our people, not by the families, and not even by
our elected officials. Interesting, very interesting.
Well, if that happens, Mr. Jenks we'll chat. Real quick real
quick. Check this out now. So first of all, I don't know if
that's really the whole communities feeling but he
references the sheriff, who we've discussed in great detail.
But then he adds this little thing at the end. Go ahead.
If I may, there's one other thing I'd like to throw in just
really quickly. Something else. Even on the heels of this rumour
the President may come is that the Westboro Baptists are on the
way to disrupt some of these funerals. And we think this is
appalling. There's an organised plan to help keep the families
isolated from this, but this is just one more potential and that
would be
what is it with these Westboro Baptists? Now this is a very,
very small congregation. I think it's 30 or 40 people and and
somehow they have the funds and they have the means to travel
lot of money from those signs. They make money from the signs
the God Hates Fags signs I'm kidding this licencing right
there's licencing rights for
the signs you can if you find their website by the signs and
they have a different damp posters of the signs, individual
signs and you can buy them and they're reasonably priced. And I
was looking at him as items of
art are they on Etsy or what you're gonna hang a God Hates
Fags are on keys in
your in your house? That's only what a lot of the signs are
quite funny. That's the one I keep seeing. So that's one of
them. But yeah, they make this Is
this me because they go out they protest funeral marketing,
the marketing their signs when we see them out there if
you think that's really what it's all about is the size. So
anything I can think of, it seems the more to me like a
feminine via where you can hire these beautiful women who will
paint their top was bought or the whole naked bodies and
protests because that's it you can hire them that you can hire
those guys no
agenda painted all over them.
I want them I wonder how much that would cost? Yeah, we'll
probably not as expensive as you think it's probably cheap.
Relatively.
So don't you think it's possible that maybe that just a group
just to be a holes and show up and disrupt things? Yeah. Okay.
Meanwhile, and
I will sell some signs.
I need a jingle for. It's a new segment. Wisdom from Ruby.
Please, no, nobody out there do that. Nobody knew that we
need a sign wisdom from hoopy. Sign this jingle. I said, I mean
jingle. We need a sign to give me a sign. God hates Whoopi. I
only do this because I do truly believe the view has an audience
that's all in and they've been they listened to these women.
It's such a diverse group. I've been it's such a diverse group
of creating great women, all led by Whoopi Goldberg, who is a gun
owner, by the way, because she
is most of the black smart black people are gun owners. And she
had she has words of wisdom for what we should do about the gun
problem in the nose. Everyone says this country. This is
starting to irritate me. It's usually tacked on and we have to
have a conversation in this country. As if we can't say here
or in America or the United States. I'm not sure why that
is. It's some kind of weird, linguistic interesting
observation. You'll see. It's whatever it is. I think it's
because it's part of a larger meme. And so it incorporates
like the meme is so rigid that it comes out exactly the same
way every time.
It's it's also so so condescending, like you stand
above or speak for the I don't know, it's bugging me. Anyway.
Here's wisdom from Whoopi. There needs to be stricter gun laws
actually, this is I put this in. Listen to these these crazy
women there
needs to be stricter gun laws. I have guns. That's the
I'm sorry. This is I think it's right. What's her name? Simone
The Cosby kid. Academic okay, but then listen to
joy Bay. Like them up joy they hears back. That's right. Joy
Bay, I listened to what she says she is so dumb. There needs
to be stricter gun laws, I have guns.
That's the love they need to I personally think you need to
tougher gun laws. And there needs to be some time
to get a licence to drive a car than to get a gun.
And no one calls her on this. It's easier to get a gun than
get a driver's licence. That's what he meant to say. What sense
does it make it's easier to get a driver's licence than a gun?
Moron, okay, here comes with.
The biggest thing that you could do with a gun law is you need to
say, Okay, you want to get three four times you want to get a
gun. I need to know the background of your family. Make
sure you don't have
Tourette's in your family or a Hitler. Depression in your
family. We need to put you on a list what is wrong with your
family? In your household. You have children in your household
that are crazy. Like you're a crazy kid. They have autism. Do
you have autism reform? What is it now? One in every three kids
has is on the so called spectrum which can also mean you're just
spinning around walking on your tippy toes or you're incredibly
intelligent. Now you got children with autism in the home
because they've all been guns for you.
You want to get three four guns you want to get a gun. I need to
know the background of your family. I need to make sure you
don't have roommates children in your household that can walk
over and just get the gun I need to make sure that your stuff is
locked up. I'm a gun owner. Yeah, oh, yeah. I don't see
this. Yes. I mean, I this is not new. This is no no no, no, no,
no, no. But I am respond. Trouble I'm a responsible person
know how to do what I'm supposed to do. And I don't mind them
doing a background check on me. I have nothing to hide.
I have nothing to hide again that night
I got nothing to hide. Oh really won't be I'm not in the hive.
Oh, sorry I
couldn't help myself lay selfies ISO
Where is really? Man Who Was that? Who was that? Hi I
couldn't help myself. I got punch here on to I am I couldn't
help it. Ah, it's
this concern you got that all you got?
What else can you do except for I put in the show notes just
this unfortunately now seems to be like a Karl Rove Republican
talking point is hey just repeal the Second Amendment so I don't
feel good that that's that was our conclusion because now I
don't want people yes, that's cropping up everywhere call us
Republicans. But it truly is the easiest way. I think if you
really want to get something done, they stole it from us.
Colorado he does live in Texas. You never know. Now there is a
very slight light point. Who is this? This is Las Vegas. What is
her name? Lawmaker. Here we go. Republican Assemblywoman Michele
Fiore wants to look into the correlation. Of course,
correlation may not be causation between SSRI prescriptions and
mass shootings and notes that the most recent shooter screen
name on social media was lithium love, which of course lithium is
used in psychiatric medication. So I recommend that she does not
to get in any hot tubs or anything. No, she better be
careful. Be very, very careful. Yeah. And there was a story that
and I've been trying to find a, like a video report. How did
this happen? This is in Florida, Sarasota, Sarasota County School
District and Florida has agreed to pay $200,000 To each of three
families whose teens died after a principal hypnotise them. Oh,
great story. Do you have anything on the story?
No, I got the same story. I read the same thing, some principles
into hypnosis. Yeah. And so he was hypnotising kids left and
right, apparently, you know, they had like words, they didn't
like studying or they hated history, or they, or they
couldn't walk and chew gum. And so he hypnotised them, and then
for some reason to the kids went off the rails killed themselves
and killed themselves. And they don't know why that kid
principal finally left, and now he's running a bed and breakfast
or something in West Virginia, which is a place I wouldn't
recommend going. Look at this watch I just bought but it's
interesting. First of all, you know, the idea that you know
that you can hypnotise someone. I think we discussed this
before, you know, universally, he's like, Oh, no, it's not
possible. You can't really hypnotise people. It's all a
trick. And here's the court saying this guy is responsible.
But also if you have an doesn't mention in the in the article
that could find if these kids were any on any type of
antidepressants or on Adderall or Vyvanse. It's the Vance I
found it's not Vyvanse. It's Vance. Are you on the Vance? Do
you have any Vance? What's Vance? Vyvanse. It's the it's
the it's the kid, the millennial nickname for Vyvanse. Vyvanse is
a battery? I mean, are they called the Vance? Is it like
Adderall? It's exactly the same. It's okay. We want to just call
it
Adderall.
Because it's a different brand name. And it does work
differently.
Oh, sure. It does. It's called amphetamines. Yeah. Well, it all
worked.
distributes. I think it distributes more evenly over the
day or something. Oh, it's got time release time release. Yeah.
Fancy because you got to call it the Vance.
The MA Vance. I need the advance getting a
chance. Hey, baby.
Yeah, let's just you know, okay, so we're on the shooting. I do
have one.
Let me just finish my point. So let's just say some of these
kids who committed suicide might have been on the Vance or on
Prozac or any you know, anything that's never get discussed, but
it would be very easy to make these kids crazy and go shoot up
places and then shoot themselves at scene and
now you're you're attacked you think a hypnotist. It's just
proving a point that is possible. I like the idea that
proving a point. Mad hypnotist CIA rogue, MK Ultra is out
there. hypnotising kids to go shoot I'm not making MK Ultra
up. I know but MK Ultra and it's very well documented. Yeah.
And do you want to look at mk 800? Is what you want to look
at. That's the medication.
Okay. What is it? What specifically is the chemical?
Oh, have?
I said just what you want to look at? I didn't say that I was
prepared to talk about it. And well, he brought it up. Okay.
So did you see this? There's a piece that just ran on some of
the news networks about some guy and I think he's in West, West
Virginia's, and he's in some one of those little smaller states
where they he got special permission to experiment with
MDMA.
No, I didn't use
ecstasy. Yeah. Yeah. Unfortunately, he's using it as
a therapeutic setting.
Isn't that what it was developed for initially? Isn't that what
my understanding that was originally developed as a blood
clot? Correction? I thought it was some sort of a, it was
something for your PSA. I know, regulation. I know
that it was It wasn't even outlawed until well into the
90s. I think it took a while. Yeah, cuz it's probably because
Hold on a second. Here's something we can make money off
of. And they've been talking about bringing it back
specifically for PTSD. And other forms of depress, you know,
this. I knew I knew this. I didn't know the guy was
experimenting in West Virginia.
Well, I think as West Virginia, I don't know where he is
specifically, but it's this guy. And they showed a lot of and
he's doing PTSD. And, and he says he's curated, cures it with
most people, and including soldiers. He's working with them
now. And the FDA is overseeing this study. And he was having
good results. But they showed a video of it. It's that thing
where you got some woman they're trying to get her she had some
PTSD for some reason. And he's talking to a man you feel so
nice. To me. Believe I gotta try this stuff. One. Don't try to
stop good for your brain.
Well, yeah, it's supposed to help you.
Well, yeah, if you have PTSD, I'm sure it's good for your
brain in that regard. Because you got you got some real
problems. But if you don't have problems, and you just want to
go on a buzz, I don't know anybody.
Oh, my therapist told me yesterday that I probably have
some form of PTSD. Oh, now you're
just looking for an excuse. So I get off your case. I'm not
kidding you. You might. Yeah, I think it would hurt to
show. Well, if I was on ecstasy while doing this show. It might
be so
good to do this show. Oh, look at my my pop screen feels so
good on my lips. It feels good. All right. All right, you've
convinced me. I'll just start today. Start today.
So on the way back from San Antonio, from my therapy, which
I encourage everyone to go into some form of therapy at some
point in your life.
I think our show helps a lot of people
that will truly but even the therapist need therapy, John.
Yes. And I you know, as I as I do, you know, I took Jr Adam to
have some junk food because you know, that's what he likes. And
I stopped off at Burger King and I tried I couldn't do it. I
couldn't I could not do it. I could read what I really,
really, really wanted to see if eating the Halloween.
Oh, that black burger. If it
would give me green poop.
Wonder what's in there? I think it's just quitting.
I don't think it's true. I think it said someone came up with it.
Or it's a native ad. Apparently, up to three days after you eat
the Halloween Whopper you have green poop?
I don't think so. I just I couldn't do an urban myth if
ever there. Yeah, see, can people like their poop? John? I
think it is. And I bet she was a German who came up with this
idea. I
think I'm telling you. I think this is a PR campaign that maybe
it started by accident, but it's being propagated everyone on go
look at YouTube. This people filming their poop.
I didn't know this. Well, it's i and it makes sense because it's
not going to turn your poop.
They say no, they say it's just green dye. They say it's FDA
regulated and approved,
though it's a black bun.
But look, maybe we should both try it.
I'm not trying it. It's unappetizing.
I thought it was gonna puke. I can't do it. I can't do it. I
cannot eat this thing.
No. It's unappetizing. I've seen pictures of an SI who would eat
this is a black bun.
But don't you think this is this? This is a kind of like a
PR move at this point for millennials because kids love
this. If you look at Twitter, I was like, I can't wait to try
just to see if it turns my poop green
beats and see if it turns your pee read. Okay, it's actually
our barrier.
I'm trying to I'm trying to have internal bleeding. You know what
I was trying to do and this is the result of a non rehearse
show I'm trying to lead you in To the McDonald's story and
trying to hand it to be honest,
I appreciate this, although you completely killed my segue to
the to the clip about the shooting, saying that I had to
finish my thing and now you've changed the subject. After you
asked
me if that's all I had. All right, let's just pretend I
didn't talk about that at all. No, no,
I think we should go to the McDonald's tip. But I have the
McDonald's thing set up a little differently. Okay, now, however
you like. I have we've recently what Adam was trying to do there
to get me to go from green poop to McDonald's, which is an
interesting article transitions, the logical. It's an interesting
segue that I wasn't grabbing right away because I was a
little annoyed. I'm sorry. Now that we're on our way. I will
say this McDonald's and we did a clip some time ago on ABC, and
if you could probably still find it. If you look up McDonald's.
ABC. Does McDonald's native ads constantly. Which
one would you like? But we have a lot of them. Are they all
McDonald's? Yeah, like new at McDonald's puffy spoon that puff
piece? McDonald's, no strive.
play any of them. I think
Burger King is dropping sugary sodas from its kids meals
instead of we'll replace them with fat free milk, low fat
chocolate milk or apple juice. And McDonald's and Wendy's have
announced similar moves. Also news today that
maybe it was this one we have so many this one would be ABC time
holds
you back from breakfast. Do you like them? I do. I always get
that one. Are you excited about the McGriddle being being done?
All this one? Great one. This is really good. Even on Fox? Yeah,
I might get it a four o'clock.
Oh, wait a minute. Wait a minute. We're being pushed off
by the McDonough. Oh, all right. It's your
clip. This is the this is the reason this is the clip we had
to play is that as the final clip. This is not my clip. Well,
it's that that's that's the clip that the guy sent us that we
have to play. This is Big People. Ladies and gentlemen.
Caution caution. Show off the rails.
I'm gonna stop I'm just gonna follow your direction. You
telling me
let's go and let's just start with the most recent clip on ABC
nightly news.
hold you back from breakfast. No,
which one is this
ABC worst native ad ever? Sorry.
I don't know what this other one is. Maybe it's
my that's the end McDonald's and I finally serving up all day
breakfast. The menu apparently, though, varies by region
hashbrowns hotcakes available in most places, but the egg muffin
not available in parts of the south where they have biscuits
instead. When we come back here, the newest Powerball winner.
All right. That is not news. That should be on the network
news. No. It's an advertisement for McDonald's explaining that
they have biscuits instead of muffins in certain parts of the
South. Right. Which you know is interesting information but
McDonald's can pay for a dam to add although they did pay for a
dam to add this is
clearly paid for and they paid for that. And Starbucks does the
same with the pumpkin spice latte
not want my news cluttered with native ads. I think it's an
abomination. Now the one that we that we have, which is the
McDonald's clip, which is when you keep kind of playing is the
is the kicker to the story. Because
just just so you know, John, I'm going to play it after because
you just accused me of the clip that you said is the one I
shouldn't be playing is from March 12. So maybe it's the same
damn thing. So I'm gonna play that after we played the clip
that you think I was. That would be interesting. Thank you. I was
not playing the clip. You thought I was okay. So
I'll accept it. All right, accepted. So here's what this is
supposedly a recent clip that's been going around and it is a
native ad gone bad. This is this is a local station that got the
native ad gig. KTLA in Los Angeles KTLA got to get so they
go into McDonald's to promote bullcrap some of their new
products or something. And then McDonald's manager kicks them
out.
hold you back from breakfast. Do you like them? I do. I always
get. Are you excited about the McGriddle being being done?
Yeah, I might get it at four o'clock. Oh, wait a minute. Wait
a minute. We're being pushed up by the McDonough. Oh, all right.
There was McDonald's controversy going on here. Please go along.
I've been shamed outside of
this protection programme.
We can't We can't shoot in here. All right. All right. We're
going out. Private property. Do they know they're our sponsor?
McDonald's. I've been kicked out of McDonald's. McDonald's. Oh,
no.
Well, you can look in the background and go yeah,
they're so confused. They don't know what to do at this point.
They're like, what do we do? There's nothing on the prompters
are
plugging I have this in the shot. This was the
full pa I hopped, serving to say I didn't want to say
The publicity
all day long. Right? Wrong with you. Yeah. Oh, no would have
been coolest if they had like some crazed kid at that very
moment walk in and shoot it up. That would have been great. That
would have been television history. Let's see what that
other clip was from March 12.
or Burger King is dropping sugary soda. It's from it's
that's the one that's
already then I don't know what the other one was John. I
don't know. Okay, well, whatever the case, I think we've made our
point. And I use whatever the case liberally which is that
these native ads are ruining television. They are not
acceptable. They're not acceptable. No. No,
they're not acceptable. They're, they're deceitful.
They're incredibly deceitful. And McDonald's is the worst
offender. They are doing them and as we saw they're doing them
again. local stations like KTLA I think they've done them on our
local stations here. And they just Pound US endlessly on ABC
nightly news or network news, whatever they call Yeah, NBC
News Tonight or whatever it's called. Anyway,
all right. We'll move into something serious because I'll
before you
do that, I want to please don't want to play that clip about the
shooting. Please, because it's kind of politically it's it's a
good segue thing. Maybe you can use it as a segue. You got it.
Ben Carson is under attack. Yes. And they are there's a good even
the national Enquirer's radar, even the National Enquirer I saw
that they're good accusing him of being a crappy surgeon.
He left sponges in some kid's head FunJet
the brain? And by the way, how does that even work at you
you're doing brain surgery is is mostly done through you know,
kinds of optics and stuff. You're not, you're not cracking
the guy's head completely open and then leaving a sponge in
there. Nobody noticing really doesn't make sense. But they're
out to get in because it happens. I mean, like somebody
said, I said, I know that this looks like a hit J hit job to
me. And one of our producers suggested and I have to agree
with this, who would benefit from this the most to get rid of
this guy, Carly? Carly Fiorina also was the CEO of HP when they
had that woman who's died. The woman who was the chairman of
the board, who is Pat, Trisha something I can't quite remember
her name. But she's the one who's sick the pirate detectives
on the journalists. And it was a scandal. Remember that? Yep.
Carly. Yeah, she did
them when the board was all in disarray. And oh, yeah.
Yeah. Oh, yeah. And the Perkins Tom Perkins from Kleiner
Perkins, who is a notorious venture capitalist billionaire,
who is was very Daniel steel. And he's had it he's an
interesting characters, kind of a mean spirited guy. He went he
quit the board of HP because of the Caerleon, this woman that is
in he hated going into an endless family. He family hated
Carly and to accentuate how messed
up it was, after that whole strife Ray Lane, who I know very
well, he was my client, when I had my first company. He was the
was the CEO at Oracle, I think, or president. And Alberto. And
then later, he became the probably the only Republican at
Kleiner Perkins. And he then went on to run HP. And it was
disastrous, disastrous, and Ray lanes a pretty good operator, he
could not put it together. So she really mess it up there.
Yeah, she's Oh, and I believe this thesis that she's behind
the Ben Carson smears. She's the only one who really benefits and
she has, I've tried to figure this out. I keep getting
messages from producers out in the wild. Who claimed that she
has very high CIA clearance and that's probably because of her
HP background. But there's something there's something to
it that I just haven't found, you
know, she's well that she's if you look at her bio, she had a
position or some cooperation agreement with the CIA, and he
There you go. She was doing a lot of work and you may have
friends still. I think it was Hayden by the way our buddy
baldhead Who was the guy who warmed up to her and she and he
provided the NSA with a bunch of computers on an on a overnight
basis where they were designed to go to other customers and
they went to the NSA instead because Hayden needed them. And
she's very cooperative with the with the intelligence agencies,
so it wouldn't be hard for her to you know, pull some strings
and get an attack on Ben Carson going in every which way. And
here's Ben Carson attack. That's on one of the networks. I
believe this was my I don't know for sure. But maybe CBS
from the indications that I got they did not rush the shooter
on CBS This Morning, Ben Carson double down, repeating the
suggestion that victims of last week smashed shooting at an
Oregon Community College could have done more to protect
themselves. He apparently didn't know that an Army veteran did in
fact try to stop the shooter
can know who Christmas is.
The Republican presidential candidate ignited the firestorm
yesterday,
I would ask everybody to attack the government because it can
only shoot one of us at a time. That way, we don't all end up.
The former neurosurgeon posted a provocative defence of the
Second Amendment on Facebook writing, I never saw a body with
bullet holes that was more devastating than taking the
right to arm ourselves away. Some rivals like Senator Lindsey
Graham took issue with Carson's remarks. I just don't think
that's the road to go down in terms of questioning people
who've lost their lives because you have no idea of what you
would do. Donald Trump came to Carson defence, I thought he was
treated unfairly. The Republican presidential field has largely
responded to last week's campus massacre by rejecting calls for
stricter gun laws in Iowa today, Hillary Clinton jumped on their
rhetoric. And
then you've got people running for president on the other side
who say, Well, you know, we just need more guns.
Yeah. So that's a hit piece.
Oh, obviously, obviously.
And they're going to I think this bungee in the brain thing
hadn't caught fire, but it could happen.
It was also any he also one kid, he operated without permission.
It was all kinds of stuff. But it's National Enquirer. So it's
likely true. embellished, because these guys are
good. Yeah. But they ran it in radar, which is their kind of
their spin off. spin off the farm team. I don't know. That's
the beta test. It was actually in the National Enquirer itself.
So, McCain, I've been following McCain very closely. And I think
it started when he brought General Petraeus as far as I
know, do you get to just keep calling yourself a general and
wearing a uniform no matter how uniform part that seems sketchy.
He was wearing his full battle dress or no, not battle dress?
All the all the ribbons and everything? Yeah, the ribbon
dress, a ribbon, the ribbon. All was lacking was a sash. Yes. And
when we, when he came in, he had that whole thing about Syria,
and he had all these nuclear. You know, it's like, This is
worse than a nuclear war. The fallout will be horrible, you
know, using all these nuclear bomb terms. And so there's a
couple things going on the first thing, and I'm, I'm really going
to think there may be a very, very sinister plan at play here.
This is something that is not being talked about quite that
openly. Although I've been waiting to read the full text.
Finally, the president
United States believes that he needs to veto the defence
authorization bill on the grounds that the budgetary
issues have not been resolved. So the President United States
is placing budgetary issues ahead of the welfare and benefit
of the men and women who are serving in the military and
their ability to defend the nation. I cannot imagine a
president united states vetoing a bill that authorises the
ability of Americans could fight this to defend this nation under
these most
interesting slip there. I'm not sure what he wanted to say, but
he was to fight this
plate again, buddy of Americans to fight this to defend this
nation to fight what under
the nation, invite them
to fight the nation, yes, and do what
he says. He's gonna say,
defend this nation under these most challenging circumstances.
But maybe because of his failure to lead and because of his
feckless foreign policy in today, May, but he feels that we
don't need to have the wherewithal to fight it.
Okay. So McCain, McCain is on a mission here, and I'm going to
try and been follow this thread all the way through. So we had
this this bombing of the medicines on frontier, the
Doctors Without Borders Hospital, which has been in this
particular spot in Afghanistan for a long time. And here's
spokes hold Josh Earnest with the the official White House
statement on this bombing, which was done by a US See 130
These are brave individuals who are using their skills to try to
improve the lives of people that they would otherwise never come
into contact with. And the fact that some of those individuals
lost their lives over the weekend is a profound tragedy.
Now listen to how he spins this and nothing less nothing less
isn't a profound tragedy. However, the
scale of this tragedy is significant enough,
significant enough, but isn't one person if one person dies is
no good as a team In what has to be it was 20. That's
significant, what is what is 19?
That it demands a full investigation. And you saw from
the President's statement that he issued over the weekend that
he expects a full accounting of what exactly has happened. So
there are actually three different investigations that
are ongoing in each of these investigations will be aimed at
trying to get as much accuracy as possible around the details
hospital transpired in the lead up to this tragedy,
okay. Now, here's what I know. And here's what I've been
conversing with some of our military producers about, you
can even take Google Earth. And you can zoom in on places where
there's an object and you can note the GPS coordinates. And
this is this is well documented, the entire probably the entire
the entire theatres of war are codified with GPS coordinates,
probably the entire globe is codified with GPS coordinates.
And this isn't a system when there's a lock when there's a
series of GPS when the target is painted. And you're going to
hear General Campbell talk about this in a second. Regardless of
who paints the target, who says this is it, those GPS
coordinates go into the system. And if there is something in
there that is a friendly target, or that needs to be avoided a
known structure, then all kinds of bells and whistles go off.
Which leaves only a few explanations one might be, and
we may hear this a cyber attack or someone messed with the
system, and it's not willy nilly. It's not, you can't
believe that there's so much sophistication going on in our
military yet, you know, when we toss out some bombs, we're just
just throw him somewhere, you know, pinpoint accuracy. You
know, we're completely precision precision strikes, all of this
stuff is all of a sudden now. Oh, oops, no, I'm not. I'm not
buying that. And I think it's it's, it's a lie. And it may be
worse, he has General Campbell
like to discuss the tragic loss of lives and the strike on the
hospital. And kudos, by way of background, US Special
Operations forces have been providing training, advice and
assistance to Afghan National Defence Forces, who had been
engaged in a tenacious fight to nation with the Taliban
Tenacious D, on Saturday morning, our forces provided
close air support Afghan forces at their request, to lay
macclare, the decision to provide aerial fires was a US
decision.
Now this is interesting. He's making it very clear that we
decided to do this
made within the US chain of command, boo.
So the question is, was there a break in the chain of command?
Did it come all the way from the top? Where are these decisions
made? Who makes the decision to do this a went to the chain of
command,
a hospital was mistakenly struck. We would never
intentionally target a protected medical facility. I must allow
the investigation to take its course. And therefore I'm not at
liberty to discuss further specifics at this time.
And that's the transparency you're talking about. Thank you.
Yeah, thanks. I
assure you that the investigation will be thorough,
objective and transparent. I'd also like to remind the
committee and the American people that we continue to make
extraordinary efforts to protect civilians. No military in
history has done more to avoid harming innocence, we readily
assume greater risks to our own forces in order to protect non
combatants. To prevent any future incidents of this nature.
I've directed the entire force to undergo in depth training, in
order to review all of our operational authorities.
I don't understand this sentence, they have to undergo
in depth training to understand what happened.
I've directed the entire force to undergo in depth training in
order to review all of our operational authority. That's
very strange, right? It's a great catch. Very strange. I'm
not sure what this means
in order to review all of our operational authorities and
rules of engagement. A record stands in stark contrast to the
actions of the Taliban. They've repeatedly violated the laws of
war. Now blaming on those guys now, by intentionally targeting
civilians owe the United Nations A dream is more than 70% of the
non combatants killed and wounded in this war to the
Taliban.
Okay, so his message is strange, strange, and he's there very
much. And this is, of course, in front of McCain, who then
continue proceeds to pretend to badger him but just like with
General Petraeus, he's only doing it to make a point.
Most of us were taught to believe there's only one option
for victory and success of the mission, but you've been asked
for options Dare I ask how many? Say what Dare
I ask, Dare I ask? Well,
dare I asked means. We already agreed what you Do ask for
options. Really what I've done is taken a look over the last,
since I've been on the ground the last 14 months, and seeing
where the Afghan security forces are at in different metrics that
we take a look at in order to ensure that they have the right
key.
But is there only one option to achieve the most efficient, the
most effective? Least in danger of further casualties? I've
Yeah, I don't I don't understand this. I thought that usually my
of study of warfare is you develop a strategy and you
implement the strategy with the plan.
Do you feel where he's going here, John?
I is not good. No. Well, it's
it's he's trying to completely discredit the president. them.
And remember, he has the National Defence authorization
act on the table, which, you know, we really haven't seen
everything we've we need to this is $612 billion. This is the
mother lode this is what it's all about in this country. And I
said, this country where we have this conversation,
you don't say, Hey, we're gonna have five or six plans here,
five or six options that we're going to pursue it most
commanders in chief that I've ever known, have called their
military people together and say, give me the best strategy
that we can employ and what's necessary to achieve the goals
of that strategy. Is it am I wrong somewhere? Am I getting
something wrong?
leading the witness dig,
leading the way I don't think I couldn't come in if you're
getting some wrong, or what I would say again, is that I've
provided you provide options and take a look, I train advise
assist, and a CT capability in Afghanistan post 2016.
So you've given them
CT, counterterrorism,
counterterrorism. Okay. Plural. Right.
Right. Not he's really tried, because the general is not all
that great. And McCain wants him to say that the President has no
strategy and has asked the the high command. Yeah,
yeah. McCain wants him to say something that will get him
fired.
And the general the general No, no, no, no, no,
that he wants to general to say somebody that will get the
general fire. That's what that's what the general is reluctant to
say anything.
I disagree. No, no, no, no. He wants he wants the general to
discredit the president. That's what got him fired. It will not
get him fired, though. This isn't they agreed to this, John.
I think I think I think they agree President agreed to this.
No, McCain and the general agreed. Yeah, but that doesn't
mean the
general is still under the commander in chief he could get
fired pushed aside sent to Alaska there's a lot
of things you this sounded more like a setup to me than what
you're saying.
i It sounds as though he's reluctant to go along with it.
Well, he because I
think McCain said I'll I'll do the options word you just go
hmm. The general kind of general won't get fired, he flubbed his
lines pretty much. And here's McCain trying to bring it
together
what most commanders in chief that I've ever experienced, they
give me give me the strategy, give me the plan, see what it
takes so that we can succeed in a in the best and most efficient
way to accomplish our goal. That's the American way. And we
all know what a goal is. So is it free, stable, democratic,
Afghanistan, arm them is the goal? Well,
it's, it's curious times. But course those of us that comes
make any criticism apparently don't know a lot of the things
that the President United States now.
Okay. So I'm feeling this is a setup. And I gotta tell you,
when you look at what's on the table, it's all about money.
$612 billion, whatever is in there, this thing has to get
past that has to be pushed through, we can't have a lot of
analysis. The big distraction is, oh, I'm sorry. We killed
doctors. We killed kids. And now we have to completely discredit
the president. And then McCain came on to the house at CNN. And
he brought this around to Syria. And I don't know, maybe it's
just me in in the next two minutes. It sounds like McCain
is explaining the entire Syrian issue and not not holding back
President Obama saying on Friday that his administration is not
going to make Syria into a proxy war with Russia. Take a listen.
We're not going to make Syria into a proxy war between the
United States and Russia. That would be bad strategy on our
part. This is not some, you know, superpower chessboard
contest.
Well, of course it is. And here's what McCain had to say.
My question to you, Senator, is this concept Can Syria already a
proxy war with Russia?
Of course it is. And when the President says we're not going
to have that trait, we don't have a strategy. It seems to me
we don't have a strategy.
Strategy.
Well, it almost sounds like he's pushing for a military coup.
When I put this all together, John, it's this is there's
something going on here.
Recall events that took place over the weekend when the
President when John Kerry, when we were watching this military
buildup, including anti aircraft, missile batteries, and
fighter aircraft, ISIS doesn't have fighter aircraft, or, and
so that was kind of interesting. But more importantly, John Kerry
called Amber off three times to find out what was going on, the
President met for 90 minutes with Vladimir Putin. Then 48
hours later, a Russian general shows up at our embassy in
Baghdad to give us an hour warning that strikes are
commencing that is treating the United States with disdain and
contempt. And of course, they are hitting the Free Syrian Army
enclaves and places which have had some success. This is the
CIA run operations. And they
okay, I haven't heard anyone actually admit the CIA is
running that.
Wow. But it gets better.
You want to take them out what Vladimir Putin and Bashar Assad
want to do is provide us with the choice between ISIS and
Bashar Assad, that and in order to do that you take out the Free
Syrian Army, which in the case of the DoD trained one,
hold on a second, this is the problem. We have rebels, one,
one group of rebels is financed and run by the CIA and the other
group of rebels is run by the Department of Defence. No wonder
it's all it's a clusterfuck. I've never heard that admitted
either, John.
That yeah, Scott's got a big mouth,
which in the case of the DoD trained one group is now down to
four or five, approximately $9 million. Each off Monterey
Clinton
broke with President Obama this week, she called for a no fly
zone over Syria. President Obama was asked about that. And he
said there's a difference between running for president
and being president. Who do you side with on this idea of a no
fly zone, Secretary Clinton or President Obama, she comes?
Well, obviously Secretary Clinton but more importantly,
General David Petraeus testified before the Secretary's hurrying
around it he not too many days ago, where he really laid out a
strategy of what we need to do, how many of us have been calling
for for a long time? Okay,
so we have the
second let me just ask the obvious question. So at this
point, they want to create a no fly zone. So if a Russian jet
which are flying all over the place, flies around, she's gonna
blow the Russian jets out of thin air, they will not get what
they're advocating. That's
what portray us advocated. Yes, yes. And then
what are these people clinically insane?
Yes. Hello, Captain Obvious. He
really laid out a strategy of what we need to do, which many
of us have been calling for for a long time. And
listen to his candour and his demeanour. He is very relaxed.
Normally, he's like, I can't believe in any of this
President. And now he's really calm because I think I've got it
all in the pocket.
I stopped the barrel bombing establish it, no flies on ARM,
the Kurds, get some Ford air controllers at work there build
up the Free Syrian Army again, and it's not too late. We, this
flood of refugees is a direct result of our failed policy. A
year ago, the President said Our goal was to grade and destroy
ISIS grade like they're in Common Core now.
We've made no progress there. And of course, we now see
Vladimir Putin inserting himself into the Middle East in a way
that that Russia has not been since Anwar Sadat, through the
Russians out in 1973. He is maintaining his base and he is
now dictating the pace of events in Syria, which is of course an
abdication of American leadership.
All right, abdication of American leadership. I think so
I think the other the other boots so to speak is yet to drop
but with lightning,
the funny clips which I have here, what she didn't bring up,
which is the really the telling clip. I consider the mic clip.
This, this is the one that is not this you can find this
story, but you will not find on any of the networks news you
didn't find it on any of those talk shows. You can Gu McCain
talk about it but this is the real issue right here suppressed
story about Russia.
Iraq may request Russian airstrikes against Islamic State
on its soil soon as a country wants Moscow to have a bigger
role than the US in the war against militant group. That is,
according to the head of Iraq Parliament's Defence and
Security Committee on Wednesday, Hakeem alza Melis at the
decision may be made in the coming few days or weeks,
depending on Russia success in Syria airstrikes, that that
views US led coalition airstrikes are ineffective and
hopes Moscow could play a bigger role in fighting against ISIL.
Severely ASO hold the intelligence sharing mechanism
between Russia, Iraq, Iran and Syria could transform into a
joint operation in the future to fight against ISIL.
There's an interesting little foreign policy flub.
So the way I see it, the military, so the military is in
Syria. With the defence department, the CIA is in Syria,
those two they must be at odds with each other.
Well, if we're gonna go back to our original thesis and the old
report, the CIA is ISIL. Yes. And they are in Syria. Yes. And
this is what I think is causing the big stars. We can't start
killing our
guys. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. And because because they're
mercenaries.
And everybody talks about oh, you know, we were ineffective
again. Yeah, we're ineffective against ISIL. Because we are
ISIL. Yeah. Which is what Iraq is now figured out. This is a
really screwed up situation. And I think McCain is I think, not
what you're thinking, I
think McCain has just given up. Oh, okay. Now, the way I'm not
for his demeanour to the way I judge it as he has not given up
I'm going to say that this attack this mistaken bombing of
the hospital was not a mistake. That's just not a mistake. It
was meant to show incredibly crappy leadership. abdication of
American leadership, he used that word, abdication of
American leadership. And all of this while the National Defence
Authorization Act needs to be passed, and it may, it may just
only be about the money. You say, Hey, you don't know what
you're doing. Let us do it. We've got it down. We just need
you to pay well, you're not going to pass this being late.
And then you're gonna have Vladimir Putin, Vladimir Putin.
Like, come on, man. It's not it's not that far to Russia. He
doesn't want he doesn't know. I'm crazy.
I am actually stunned that Putin didn't get into this deal
earlier. It's his guy.
I think he was smart to wait. I think it was I think it was very
smart to wait.
No, I'm not. Well, I mean, he did kind of get in when he took
care of the let's look
at this. Yes. Let's look at some other history. Let's look at
let's look at Ukraine. And so what happened when McCain again,
McCain, and what's her face noodle bucket? Victoria Nuland,
they went in and they they set up the porch they set up the the
takeover of the Ukrainian government and and subsequently
ran
or was rolling around, which is the one that really makes you
roll your eyes
and subsequently Putin gets Crimea. You'd almost think
McCain is working for Putin the way he does things. And the way
it rolls? Oh, Mr. Putin and Putin just waited. It. Thank
you. You created all that vacuum over there. I'm going to jump
into Crimea. Hey, thanks for creating this crazy vacuum over
here in Syria. I'm just
gonna move in. There was ours all the time. Uh huh.
And then this report this is a good one
um, police arrest a man in Moldova, another swoop by the
authorities in Eastern Europe, cracking down on groups selling
radioactive material to Middle Eastern extremists in the
suspects car is cesium, a deadly chemical
and they're showing a glass vial John a glass vial is wrapped in
a in a in a handkerchief. This is this guy's hands gonna be
cesium cesium, he was
specifically seeking a buyer from the Islamic State group.
This incident happened in February 2015. Authorities
working with the FBI have foiled three other similar attempts in
the past five years by gangs with suspected Russian
connection so Dovin police have repeatedly gone undercover to
infiltrate deals, the country has become a thriving black
market and nuclear materials driven by criminal
organisations. inSource KMC trust me, Barney. Though some
have been arrested the kingpins of the deals have escaped
capture evaded long sentences, criminals.
This hasn't caught fire yet. I'm not sure why but to have
smugglers selling cesium to ISIS so they can make nuclear bombs
Come on. Is it that easy? Joe?
I have no idea. I have no expertise in selling cesium and
the wild thing I don't think that's you. I don't know if it
would I think a dirty bomb is all he could get out of that.
The end the White House is is so clueless. And I think this
really shows they were caught off guard by all this one two
punch. They're so clueless that they're reverting back to
stupid, the stupid as means ever. But
I think there's one premise of your question that I would
disagree with. I don't think President Putin is playing
chess, he's playing checkers fleas
really wasted this
gag, we back to that bunch of editorial cartoon showing that
like, really, like Putin sitting on one side of the chess table,
and Obama's got a checkers piece on his side now, and then he's
moves in, says King me or something, whatever. And,
and then, somehow,
I think we first heard that meme like,
a while ago, it was, was it five years ago? At least his old? Let
me see. It was McCain, I think, who said? No, it was Obama
actually, here it is. This is January 29.
So let me move you on to the other big story that we've had.
And that is your reach out or Cuba's reached you in your reach
to kind of I
don't want to go through the whole thing. But that
apparently, Obama says Putin has no chess master. He's playing
checkers. So they use that in January. And oh, here's another
one in February. I don't know what this is. I do think it is.
I don't care. But it's an old meme. And they just resurrecting
it. And that's that's pathetic.
I'd say it's
really pathetic. And then on all of this something that we've
been talking about for maybe a year, at this point, about the
Nike shoes, and the Toyota vehicles.
I actually have a clip that runs down the entire Toyota story. I
would love to hear this. And this was on ABC. And I think
this was the most complete report and it has all the humour
is from our perspective of this story that occurs, we spotted
the Toyota trucks when I don't know how but it must have been a
year ago, it was no way longer than that. And it was what it
was before ISIS is when we started there was these
incursions of this kind of when I think it was even maybe during
the bomb crisis, we started seeing these Toyota trucks
everywhere. With the with the end, it was the good guys. And
the bad guys had him and they had the machine gun mounted on
the back of the truck.
And they were brand new. Not all of all the ones on parade when
we're talking about it. They're all shiny. Yes, those
are all brand new, but I'm talking about the early days
when we first started seeing the Toyota logo everywhere. Okay,
gotcha. Now, this is on ABC. So there's an element at you'll
hear it at the beginning of the report of native advertising,
although I don't know if they sold anything to Toyota, but
they may as well have the way they start this report when they
go to the correspondent.
We turn now to a question being asked by American authorities
after so many videos and images of ISIS, US counterterrorism
officials asking why are ISIS fighters driving so many similar
trucks? And where are they getting them from? Look at these
images, ISIS fighters writing and Toyota pickups and Toyota
Landcruisers. Authorities now asking the automaker, can they
help officials figure out why ISIS has so many Toyota's ABCs
chief investigative correspondent Brian Ross looking
for answers toss
the Toyota Hilux pickup is one tough truck as the BBC auto show
Top Gear demonstrated seemingly indestructible which has made
the Toyota Hilux truck of choice in war zones around the world,
including by ISIS.
I loved how he said it's the truck of choice for all
terrorists around the world and your Toyota Hilux. Now, now with
special machine gun 50 calibre mount,
their propaganda videos show convoys made up mostly of Toyota
Hilux pickups as
its member was the jump for Toyota wasn't that the campaign
Landcruisers had now ABC News has learned that a US Treasury
counterterrorism unit is asking Toyota to help them determine
how so many of its trucks both newer and older models have
ended up in the hands of ISIS and
please pay no attention to the weapons they're using the tents
they use or any other matrial which is all us stuff. Yeah, all
us stuff. How do they get a book in the US State Department by 45
of them and ship them over somewhere?
I know many can be just stolen
former me American diplomat Mark Wallace, who now runs the
counter extremism project says he suspects ISIS supporters are
buying many of the trucks from Toyota dealerships and then
turning them over to the terror group.
We believe that sales are being diverted from these dealerships
in order to support ISIS. I think it's a concern to the
United States government in our allies.
The Iraqi ambassador to the United States says ISIS has
hundreds of brand new Toyota's in its fleet.
How could they these four wheel drives, they could
with hundreds of them, where they're coming from. Toyota says
it does not know how ISIS is getting its vehicles, and that
it is impossible to control indirect or black market sales.
But no one from Toyota would agree to appear on our report.
And when we went to last month's big Toyota dealer meeting in Las
Vegas, hotel security officials, flashlights into our camera lens
ordered us to stop taping or
else Sure. We'll find out this way.
And Brian with us now we just want to make this clear. Toyota
says it doesn't know how ISIS is getting its hands on these
trucks.
That's why David in a statement to ABC News, Toyota says it is
not aware of any of us dealerships violating the
company policy not to sell to terrorist groups. All of this
data is part of a broad US efforts by the Treasury
Department to keep ISIS from using its huge supply of cash to
equip and resupply its terrorist army.
Brian Ross and your team Thank you. So
this is a comedy show
you know it's just I cannot believe for a single second just
like Volkswagen where this the Volkswagen fraud was known for
at least a year in public domain by the BBC not by any just show
but by news night. This is not like news to these people
there's a reason why it's happening right now. You can
tell me that all of these analysts and military personnel
but only now they're saying that a lot of Toyota trucks there
come on is it Chevy truck month yet? Maybe it's a maybe it's a
sale for an effort to switch out what do you think it
is? I don't think they're gonna say well well we've been we've
seen a tax on Toyota before Yep, with the audit control cars and
all the rest I have no idea I just know it did cabin just
happened. Although they obviously picked up on the idea
a little while ago since they went to the to the Toyota
dealers thing last month. That means that story had to be
underway at least. Ooh, good Kaddish. Yeah, two or three
weeks ago, maybe longer but all came at once. And it didn't come
with just ABC at once. It came with all of them at once every
network every meme on the internet, all the tweets and
everything is bang, bang, bang, bang bang all within the last
few days. It wasn't like three weeks ago, when they obviously
don't know could there
be do you think there could be economic sanctions or there
could be some something done against Toyota could it could it
harm Toyota other than
not going to be able to do anything? I don't know what the
point of it is. I don't know I have no idea I don't I don't
think this is an accident. I don't think it's an accident
either or not because the stories are so pre prepared
weeks and weeks ago obviously from what he said. And all came
together at the same time all within the last week. All of a
sudden every news outlet Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang is like like
clockwork when you see coordination like that in the
news media something something's up something's up somebody's
pushing the button. So that we have to think about it more and
then we'll we'll come up with it we always get to the bottom of
everything. Yeah.
It seems a bit far fetched to think it's just a to you know,
all of this is coordinated for the American auto industry.
We get rid of vesting for fascist pretty desperate. And it
seemed like
have you seen our American automobiles? Desperate times
call for desperate measures, my friend. Maybe play selfies ISO.
Yeah, that's, that is definitely a keeper. I did really loud.
Okay, all right. I think we've handled the military industrial
complex.
Part one.
You got part two,
now. Okay, now, it'll be shortly after we do our thanks.
Well, then let me thank you for your courage and say in the
morning to you John C. Dvorak
in the morning to you, Mr. Adam curry also in the morning and
all ships to see boots on the ground subs in the water, feet
in the air and all the days and nights out there
in the morning to our artists, you can always find them at no
agenda art. generator.com submissions come in right after
the live stream. It's really is astounding. how well our artists
are able to tie into memes discussed on the show and then
put it into art. We had 400,008 bombs with the title of episode
762. And I think we use an older piece of art it was the
Volkswagen logo in the crosshairs. Yes, a nice piece.
It was by 21 Baldwin. We appreciate his well I use
I want to credit I'm going to start crediting people for the
newsletter art.
Yeah And saying this so you use the birth control certificate
I use three pieces actually okay? Because I did two art
pieces as spot art. So I have from a cesium 137 was the birth
control certificate to the running gag also the Obama
picture from Melvin Gibbs Steen. And then the other one that
which I think is a good piece actually looking back on as the
EU Civil War shows the EU flag and then has a rebel and
Confederate looking soldier in front of it, which is civil war
oriented. And that was of course a good piece from 20 watt bulb.
I want to remind people by the way, don't put the show numbers
on the RT because then you will never get the if they get passed
by it can't be used.
And also, we be feeling pretty good about it. Don't put our
heads on it. We're tired of that. Also, you want to
think that we have not run ahead of either one of us for five
years maybe
and also in the morning everyone on the street know agenda
stream.com Good to see all showing up for the live show
today.
So we want to thank a few people. Let's start with Kevin B
6060. Sir black balls of twit
from Chicago
as you can go. And he says, aka sir black balls at twit checking
in to double up my knighthood in honour of Adam getting
blackballed from twit back in 2012 Sir Semper six semper
tyrannis. For the book of knowledge, that phrase has been
invoked historically in Europe and other parts of the world as
an epithet are a rallying cry against the abuse of power six,
semper tyrannis and good on artwork.
So he's doubling he's doubling down
and doubling down so he's actually a Baronet, I believe.
Yes. I think he would like some karma.
Okay, happy to hand that out, too. No problem. You've got
karma.
Now, now we have an example of this, I think is one of our best
shows for an example of the random number 30. We're all out
of the blue. A bunch of people do the same thing. In this case,
it starts with Sir Thomas Nussbaum, one of our he's going
to be duke he claims by the 13th of October, and he's one of our
high end patrons. He actually submitted two checks, one for
the 323 310 26 and 210 26. So he actually needs to be both an
executive producer and Associate Executive Producer. Eric combine
them. Okay. He combined them for I gotcha into one Gotcha. The
one because he only had one note which was Duke by 13th October.
So he will be let's give him some karma while we're at it.
You've got karma Georgina Trulia live in Austin, Texas $333.33 We
would like to ask for some relationship karma and with this
donation he becomes the Duke of the southern United States Wow.

The Karma stop that screams out for karma up Got karma James
doubler me simple check, make sure.
All right, so here we go. We had the Sir Thomas Nussbaum with his
two donations. Uh huh. Steven ma Richard Moffat, who told me to
prep more a sent in 123 checks. No one has done that before. No
one has ever sent in multiplicity of
checks. Are they all dated on the same day?
Yeah, they're all that same day and once for 101 15 one is for
101 is for 100 and the bottom one says Jon's prescription I
don't know what that is. The other one is following I don't
know what that guy Adams gasoline and then the third one
for 101 15 is funding I don't know how to get to this odd
number. I boost by the way sent it in for no agenda. So that's
three checks, totaling actually $300.15 It's wrong on the
spreadsheet. And he had the note which was condemning me for not
being preparing enough and the rest of the note and then move
it around here it is
there Yeah, that's what he's talking about. Where's your prep
you're looking for the note you're not prepared.
He said that at the one hour and 38 minutes into the programme
Adam mentioned the Izola handwritten the something
executive project manoeuvre it was about behavioural science in
other words brainwashing okay something around that we didn't
you change behaviour modification that brainwashing
anyway want to thank you we let's give him some karma for
being so grumpy. Got karma? Van just to prove the random number
theory, Squire Stichting. In Houston, Texas, sent in 12345
checks. That's a record. So we
are they trying to skirt some terrorism funding laws or
something that probably
has to be 10 grand or so for him and gives him probably
protecting? He got 50 to 80 for the Mile High Club. We had to
put them on there by hand. Then he got to Mile High Club a
second time. And then something fits the eighth anniversary $80
donation. The $250 round of $13.40 and then a happy birthday
Adam $51 Oh, thank you and all separate checks. Again, this has
never happened before. And in this case, we have three
multiple donations and a bunch of checks have a whole bunch of
checks. And he he sent a note in which says my first donation he
was I was home for some anonymity, but it was not meant
to be fortunately my last name was misspelt and mispronounced.
I have since grown comfortable with the new spelling. So until
I achieve knighthood, which he's working on, I request my spousal
unit to refer to me as squire sticked and attended to the
Knights of the no agenda roundtable. In this electronic
age I seldom need to write checks but I'm including several
to save you a few pennies on the Pay Pal charges more than a few
pennies and to identify where I want some of the donation
credited and he says it gives them half the weight a
knighthood spousal unit and I are very entertained by your
fine show.
And we think and we thank you for your courage.
honour to Christopher Dolan who comes in as an associate
Associate Executive Producer to squares squire Stockton as
Associate Executive to is 250 Total Brookline Massachusetts to
1026 that was should be a double he both these guys get doubles.
There was something going on in Brookline.
It's always something going on in Brookline. It's a happening
place.
It's filled with with morons.
Yeah, there's a lot of morons and brother you want to hear the
Brookline Christopher Dolan's? Not one Oh, of
course not. Do you want to hear the Brookline story? Yeah, sure.
Brookline teacher Larry chin serenaded by students as he
leaves town hall. He's trying to save his job which is now on the
line. And that has his pupils very upset. Never seen in a
teacher.
And as soon as I heard I was in tears. It was so devastating to
find out that this is an eighth grader. What is this? Such a
beloved teacher could have been taken away from us in that way.
Now what do you think the the offence was for this teacher?
John, what do you think the teacher did to keeping? Groping
Okay, that's that's one you can have two more guesses if you
want.
Okay, great movie Up tweeting bad tweet,
bad tweets, bad tweet behaviours,
and that happens a lot now. Yeah,
it could have been but now what else would you say? he's been
he's been late
being late too late to school being late.
Okay, so he's been he's been forced aside for three weeks now
either for a being late be Oh, no one a groping be bad tweeting
or see being
late at unconventional teacher chin has been out of the
classroom a couple of weeks where it is he was overheard
using the longer version of the phrase, Bs and an after hours
conversation with high schoolers.
Has Brookline gone insane?
The guy said bullshit, and they fired him. Yep. Yeah, that's
bad, bad, bad, bad city.
If there's more to it. Nobody's saying because of
confidentiality. Students left class and marched from the
school to town hall joined by parents.
I want to make sure that this is a fair trial and that he's
these mothers under indictment, these mothers are nuts. They're
nuts. Wow,
this is a fair trial and that he's given a real chance and
that people appreciate what an incredible teacher he was. And
is
for now, no decision on Chin's future
boo. Okay. Because he said bullshit out of school.
Okay, borderline Clip of the Day. Yeah.
Well, I'll tack it on to the karma for the last donation.
Okay.
That was Christopher Dolan. And Chris do something about this
problem. Sir Robert Gosh, go are barren of Strathcona county is
Sherwood Park, Alberta, Canada and when to 1026 ITM John and
Adam, while eight years has been quite a ride from the beginning
to keep it going for at least eight more. Can I get a clippity
clop almost too delicious to believe a little girl yay, karma
shot. Sir row Baron of Strathcona. County
clippity clop. Delicious to believe and little girl yay. And
I will tack on the borderline Clip of the Day. Clip
it's almost too delicious to believe my friends. You've got
karma.
And they don't even say the word either. They said that the
extended version of that would
be S Yes. Because it's such a horrible word. Or the router
version of bullcrap. And you could have different ways.
Rather? Christine Zachman in lost wages in Nevada $210.26.
She says that this is will be her and when we click on this,
this donation will start my husband Gary's arguments quest
for the no agenda knighthood Oh, That's love right there, man in
that. Great, that's love. It's fantastic. That'll conclude our
group of executive and Associate Executive producers for show
2763 I believe that's correct. And we remind people to do a
short little couple days before I do another show on Sunday. So
if you can go to divorce, that org slash and a would be greatly
appreciated.
And these credits are real. There's nothing different from
Hollywood credits, except for if you feel good about helping our
show, you don't get to like hang out and walk the red carpet. But
I think executive producers over
sneak into a red carpet anyway, that's true.org/n
a. And of course, we need everybody out there doing some
very important work. You know what it is you got to propagate
the formula.
Our formula
is this. We go out, we had people in the mouth
I've discovered something I think might be interesting about
the migrant crisis, okay, which is really coming to a head in
the Netherlands there were very angry crowd of citizens of this
rather small village who were promised that they would only I
think initially it was we're going to set up an asylum called
asylum seeker centre. But of course, it will be used for the
migrants, sometimes now called refugees in Euro land. And
initially, they said we're gonna have 1400 Now you have to
understand that there's a number of these seats. Oh, yeah. You
know, there's a there's a sports ground that parents don't want
the kids to go to play soccer there anymore because you know,
because of migrants. Refugees, whatever you want to call,
they're worried abna. So they and this is before any of this,
you know, the Middle East migration took place. They had
already agreed with lawmakers. Okay, we'll make it 700. And
then they said, Well, you know, we got this problem, we have to
take our quota of these people. So we're moving back up to 1400.
And people lost their BS. And they attacked an official car.
Like the some, some local official attack their car, you
know, countries this, the Netherlands, Holland,
Netherlands. Oh, yeah. There's just people do not. It's
interesting when you there's a Kickstarter now for which is run
by Kickstarter and the United Nations United Nations Refugee
Agency. I wanted to clip it, but there's really nothing there.
But the way it's portrayed, you see, people who want to walk to
the Austrian border, where they want to get to the Austrian
border, 108 180 kilometres at the end, they have infants, of
course, this is what's shown in the video. And what was
fascinating to me is they decided a certain point after
four days of camping out, and they're saying, hey, you know,
they lied to us. They said they were going to take us they put
us on trains to camps. Haven't heard that before in Europe. And
so we're not going to walk and so the any of the kids have
blisters, they're crying, the fallen down, there's nothing to
eat. And they're walking on the side of the highway. And they're
just cars just going by and no one gives a crap. No one gives a
crap. The Europeans, I'm generalising are assholes. It's
really incredible. But of course, it's all born out of
fear. And they misunderstand, they don't know what's going on.
So well, you know, I just want to just take the other side of
this, I did see some interesting stories that were Europeans that
were going out of their way to help people and making a fuss
about the fact that what you're saying is generally true, but
they were helping. But there were a minority of
EB and the migrants attacked them and stole their food and
pushed out the ground. To make the story more interesting.
That's happening, that's
sure does. Everybody is a good person.
But here's what I stumbled on to if you go to w two number two EU
dot info that we've been trying to figure out who was providing
the information was it a secret map, you know, that these guys
go into the camp and Turkey and say, Hey, we're gonna open up
the doors and you know, I've got to get out and move on. And
these these people, they have smartphones, they have to have
Wi Fi devices that give me the URL again, w two that's number
two EU dot info, independent information for refugees and
migrants coming to Europe and this is a full site with maps
with addresses is a good find. Well wait until you find out
who's behind it. Ca. So w two EU dot info provides information to
refugees and migrants that might be useful on their journey to
and through Europe. We want to give access to counselling and
useful contacts in different European countries
on how they expect these people to get to Iceland which is on
the map
okay, but but every every country you would need is in
here. And
wow is a great one,
isn't it? Oh yeah. And your active participation spread this
site and link it we are always in need of translators from
English into French Arabic and Farsi the web guide is a work in
progress if you have any other special information don't
hesitate to send us your material. Now on the about on,
that is the about this he wasn't anything about them
specifically, traces through Europe is a growing exhibition
starting at the outer borders of the year. It's called traces
through Europe. Traces through Europe is telling the story of
those who are on their journey through Europe to talk about
successful arrivals arrivals without a fingerprint registered
and about their precarious future of forced return
a book in a documentary in this deal.
So I did some research on this. And it turns out that this is
because I did some Whois lookups you know, the typical stuff is
not all that hard to do. And it turns out that this is run by
border monitoring.eu. So we should probably go to border
border. Border monitoring.eu. And the I think this is multiple
language site, or you can at least translate it. It's in
German only in German. Oh, can't be but they they claim to be the
the parent organisation And so I dove into that one. And guess
who was funding border monitoring.eu and thus
subsequently w two EU dot info. Okay, you can already guess.
Soros Yep. Yep. It's part of the migrants Rights Network migrants
rights.org And they provide the funding to border monitoring.eu
and thus are the ones creating this information for the
refugees Yeah, encouraging it encouraging and giving them the
map giving them the entire the entire plan
how these guys could do all this. And,
and you know, your thesis, which we talked about a couple shows
ago is that why is it Why does a guy like Soros do this? And it's
to create this massive confusion?
Why might you want to chaos? If you know how to trade on chaos,
which he doesn't art? Yeah. Chaos millions and billions he
make probably make a fortune on this deal.
And what would the investment be? Or how would he do that?
I don't know. Because I don't yet know how to trade on chaos.
But I would think,
is this a known term trade on chaos? I like it a lot.
I don't know if it's a known term, but the people trade on
different kinds of things. And chaos would be one of them. I
like it in that crazy? Yeah, that guy's unbelievable. He's
all over us. Right. And the only thing Glenn Beck was ever write
about and because you know, we got him fired from Fox.
Because when you're saying whenever you whenever you say
Oh, George Soros Open Society, and so people go out your
conspiracy theories crazy. Well, not really.
A bitch about the Koch brothers.
It's really unbelievable. Koch brothers.
It's funny that you mentioned that the old conspiracy theory
is a conspiracy theory, this thing and it Soros is behind
everything. But meanwhile, that same person will be on board
with all the Koch brothers. Exactly. Funding all the
Republicans a horrible
was not discussed
with the situation in Lebanon. This is the frontline in the
refugee crisis. After more than four years of civil war in
Syria, neighbouring Lebanon says it can no longer act as a buffer
zone for those fleeing the fighting. As Europe worries
about its crisis, one is a breaking point, where one in
four of the population is now a refugee. And there's no official
places for these families to go. So often they end up living in
unsafe abandoned buildings, they live wherever they can. And as
months turn into years, tensions with the local population are
increasing.
Yeah. What could possibly go wrong with that?
Nothing. I think you can I'm trying to I was thinking
everybody brought that question. What can you train? I think you
could trade on bonds. I think in short, bonds, government bonds,
this is something
we could bring up with Horowitz I'm going to talk to Horowitz
trade on chaos is a good term and I'm going to copyright it
for you.
Okay, thank you. I'll write a book.
Right after the vinegar, little bitty head can't wait for the
small book. It won't be chaos. So maybe it's appropriate now to
play the most recent performance from Nigel Farage in the
Starfleet Command,
there was a link to in the show notes if you want to hear it on
your own machine sometime. But I think I thought it was a gem.
And it had that's where I got the picture I in the newsletter,
you see that picture of Merkel and Milan, and Alana is leaning
away from her, you know, this body language thing is so
obvious. And then Alon got up later and just gave a gave a
pretty good speech, kind of trying to counter what Faraj
said. But it was most of the original kind of a utopian type
speech.
And what Faraj does here is he really leans into the violent
past of, of Europe, in particular between France and
Germany.
Yes, he's trying to go go down.
And and we know that if you want strife in Europe, all you got to
do is have you know, Germany attack France. That's how it
always starts. And we've done this twice already.
It's also you go back far enough that France French attack the
Germans, and even Napoleon was not a trick, but
he was not a nice guy. It goes back and forth.
Thank you. Nobody in their right minds would not agree that it
was a sensible thing to do, to get France and Germany together
around the table to break bread with each other, to have a trade
deal with each other back in the 1950s and to work as sovereign
democratic nations together for peace. All of that was
absolutely right and high minded. Sadly, the whole thing
has become corrupted. Tony Blair said the US a day is no longer
about peace. It is about power, and how right he was and how
that power has shifted. When coal and metre oil came here,
representing their country is 25 years ago. It was a partnership
of equals but no longer. France is now severely diminished,
trapped inside a currency that frankly, for which you can't
recover. And the friend His voice in this relationship and
in Europe is little more Now frankly that a pipsqueak we're
living
I'm not sure is there another historical I'm trying to find it
another historical meaning behind pipsqueak is that
something horrible about someone who bought a buckled the
pressure for Hitler or something?
I don't think so. I think it's really just a common term that's
used the means a little diminished person. That's Little
Man squeaking Wait, how tall is Faraj had must have said this up
yet his some of his stickers Independence Party stickers I
didn't he had a bunch of people behind him a whole group around
him that was just chortling and clapping and everything he said
Alon does five seven. Does that count as a pipsqueak? I don't
think so. Really?
Ah, five seven for mela you can be borderline petite male, you
know T possible. Teague male, the female.
I'm Hi. Welcome to the gap. Yes, everything for petite males.
That's an actual term
out in Europe is little more now, frankly, that a pipsqueak
with the Brits liked it living?
And it's an irony, isn't it?
No, he was not you mentioned I didn't know he was five, seven.
So I think that was a that was I think
it's all object that was designed to contain German power
has now given us a totally German dominated Europe. Just
look at the euro. Germany has a currency devalued by 20%. A
growing and massive trade surplus. And most growth in the
German economy since the collapse of 2008, has indeed
been an exports to other eurozone countries, such as your
very big arms sales to countries like Greece. And when we have a
general election that says a country like Greece wants to
change direction. Well, I'm sorry. But that now must be
brushed aside because the Germans don't want it. And it
what must count as perhaps the worst piece of public policy
seen in modern Europe for half a century, when you compounded the
already failing and flawed EU common asylum policy by saying
to the whole world, please come to Europe. And we saw a frankly
virtually a stampede. And we learn that 80% of those that are
coming are not Syrian refugees. In fact, what you've done is to
open the door to young male economic migrants, many of whom
I have to say, behave in a rather aggressive manner, quite
the opposite to what you would ever expect to see from any
refugee. And yet when that failure when that failure when
that failure is met by objections from countries like
Hungary, their opinions are crushed. This isn't a Europe of
peace. It's a Europe of division. It's a Europe of
disharmony. It's a Europe, that is a recipe for resentment. And
yet, faced with all this failure, both of you said the
same thing today. You said Europe isn't working. So we must
have more Europe, more of the same failing. Well, there is I
think, a bright star on the horizon. It's called the British
referendum. And given given that none of you want to concede
Britain the ability to take back control of our own borders. A
Brexit now looks more likely that at any point in modern
time, and I hope and pray that Britain voted to leave the
European Union will be the beginning of the end of a
project however noble its original intentions has gone
rotten.
Rotten it's gone. It's gone rotten. We have a boots on the
ground report from Germany. Oh good sir Kelby coning who says
he's the self proclaimed future JCD I think it's come as a
compliment. Hi, Adam. Fortunately, couldn't attend the
boulder meetup this year. I had a flight that night to Germany
while travelling I fell behind on the best podcast in universe
looking forward to hearing some real deconstruction, seeing
Germany and the migrants firsthand was very interesting.
While in Hamburg, I saw hundreds of immigrants he says walking
the streets, and he did exactly what a no gender producer was.
He goes up and talks to him. So when asked about their feelings
towards the mass immigration, every German citizen replied the
same way they said these people are hurting and need help. This
is the I think this is the national guilt the Germans had
from World War Two that felt good about and that it felt good
about helping others in need. The only complaints were that
senior citizens of Germany receive around 650 euros a month
for Social Security. These new immigrants receive 800 euros a
month, even though they've never worked in Germany in their life.
It was sad to see a person in retirement digging through trash
bins for plastic bottles to be recycled. A person who worked
their whole life and gave to the government for their future
retirement and they have to spend any free time dumpster
diving to make ends meet. The other complaint was that the
reason these poor people even travelling to the EU You was
because of the damn Russians. They're all in there on the
Russians being all of the world's problems. That's a Yeah,
I didn't expect a very good report. I didn't expect that at
all. I thought it was good too. And then, of course, we have
this report, which could be posturing. But it's something I
expected on the heels of the Volkswagen scandal for
so long that world's manufacturer of choice. Germany
known for quality you could trust. That is that about to
change. It's a Spectre raised by shock fall in industrial orders
down 1.8% In August, despite predictions of a nought point 5%
rise. And ABS Nick Parsons,
Germany is doing what everyone classically does in this
situation, which is to blame a lack of overseas demand. Now
this may work for one country individually, but of course in
aggregate is mathematically and logically impossible for it to
be everyone else's fault.
China's slowdown is no doubt having an effect hence Angela
Merkel's visit to India in the hope they'll go some way to
bridging the gap. But brand Germany is suddenly not such an
easy sell says Parsons as the VW emissions scandal continues to
deepen.
I don't think it's under threat terminally. But it's certainly
tainted in the very short term. Germany if system for anything
was quality and integrity. The quality is undoubted. It's the
integrity, whether question marks and it'll be interesting
to see the extent to which customers really do care about
that, or whether they just want the quality, whatever the price
and to hell with the consequences.
Volkswagen shares fell 3% in early trading, after a letter
showed it had cheated emissions tests on 8 million vehicles in
the EU.
Brand Deutschland in trouble. Yeah. Interesting. There is a
there's something good that that Volkswagen did. Volkswagen owns
Porsche. And I was reading about the iPhone when our producer
sent this to me reading about the new the 2017 Porsche 911.
And we see where I can find this. So you know, everyone's
working on the cool in car stuff. And we have this is
borderline tech news. Like Apple CarPlay. And I didn't know this,
but there is Android Auto. I be familiar with this product.
Android Auto I'm
not familiar with anybody know about it. Okay. Everyone's
trying to get into everyone's trying to get into the act.
So here's what here's what I will I'm going to build Germany
up. I'm going to build them up here. No technic. So this is the
this Motor Trend actually has never read Motor Trend, no
technological reason that the new 911 doesn't have Android
auto playing through its massively upgraded PCM system
was PCM Personal Car management or something like that?
Something like that. So why doesn't it have it as part of
the agreement, any automaker has to enter with Google when you
want to put Android Auto in. Porsche said certain pieces of
data are required by the contract to be collected and
transmitted back to Mountain View California. vehicle speed,
throttle position, coolant oil, temp engine revs pretty much the
entire OBD to dump whenever someone activates auto Android,
Porsche said Nope, they're not going to do it. They did of
course go with Apple. The only thing Apple play needs to know
is if the car is moving. So that's that's pretty. That's
pretty evil, I'd say of, of Google.
Well, they're just data junkies. Yeah. turrible.
And anyone who so if you have a car with with Android Auto then
you know, but he does. They will.
I don't think that would those requirements. Nobody's going to
put up with that crown. Let's
see. We shall see. Now I
just returned about hours. I might as well bring in the least
a little background on this the crap they use in these diesel
engines. Mark Lapa Cola, one of our producers sending a note
because he apparently drives a diesel. And I'll read it I've
been driving truck.
driving truck. That's how you talk about it. I didn't know
that. Yeah, we discussed this last tour when I was in Idaho. I
remember vividly
any driving truck I can't remember anything since 2004 is
my experience with the dreaded death, diesel exhaust fuel.
What's the green stuff? In 2012 the EPA forced truck engine
manufacturers to build these death systems into their
engines. One more hoops to jump through my slave training
exercises I guess. Trucks lost 50 gallons of fuel carrying
capacity to gain a 14 gallon death tank. In cold winters like
two years ago death freezes solid. The pumps or the fuel
stations freeze the five gallon bottle product has to be stored
inside the truck or it will freeze. And of course the tanks
of the trucks freeze. Oh and if you don't want to store death
inside the cab of the truck because it stinks like kiss cat
piss apparently, because it's mostly urea, every so often the
engine had to perform a regen, which means the truck must
remain running for half an hour. So around 1000 RPM, the truck
has to be parked as well, this is all like a, this is reminds
me of the you know, the all these greenies you know they,
they in Berkeley, they put in all these bike lanes. And so now
the traffic is doesn't move. And so it's just sitting there
idling, pumping out all kinds of noxious gases, which wouldn't be
happening if the cars were actually going from point A to
point B instead of sitting there. But okay, that's my thing
by Laurie just got off track, the track has to be parked as
well the region is supposed to be to run as it as the truck is
moving, but that's hit or miss the process cleans out the soot
in the exhaust stack. And again, it stinks to high heaven. So
much for California and New York, no idle laws. Some
manufacturers allow the truck to run without death, others will
cause the engine performance to degrade. I had this happen once
in, in the 401. In Canada 25 miles an hour, it was all I
could do for speed this performance in may also occur.
If you decide to skip the region procedure, I thought you might
want to use your perspective on death. So
very nice. Very nice. Very nice. I
haven't around with this crap. Very nice. I didn't know
anything about it.
I didn't even I didn't realise that that you can fill that up
at certain gas stations. I've never seen this.
I guess if you go to a truck stop, they probably have a pump
for it. If you drive and truck you do the drive and try for
driving truck. And while you're driving truck, get other truck
drivers by the way to listen to no agenda is a perfect show for
traffic for dwelling. We have a number of truck drivers, you
don't have enough. Maybe they're just not vocal, but we have them
for sure.
Something happened that I forgot to bring up end of August and I
was doing a bit of email back and forth with a big supporter
of the show. Big big research supporter Brian, the gay
Crusader from Chicago. Yeah. And he reminded me about the
takedown of rent boy.com. And we didn't talk about this, but did
you know, Surely you've missed it?
Yeah, I missed it.
I mean, you miss rent boy.com. Anyway, no,
I missed the story. In misread boy
now. So rent boy.com is what has been running since 1997. And,
you know, pretty small operation, but you know, $10
million dollars in revenue, according to most reports, and
it's no, it's no different from Craigslist ads, or what do we
have? Back Page? You know, there's lots of places where you
can hire escorts, they focus specifically on male escorts. So
they were right. They were raided by Federal officers
rent boy, I get it. Yes.
were raided by not the FBI but Department of Homeland Security.
Although FBI is of course involved, and they not only
arrested the seven people who are running rent boy.com. But
turns out these guys were not using a data centre. It's stuff
like this happens. I think when you're me, you started in 1997.
You do it in house. And they were using were they using they
had a pretty big pipe directly into into their building. And
they had their servers there and the servers were confiscated.
Now, this investigation started in 2013, according to all
documents, and this started in the Eastern District of New
York. Now who was the US attorney at the time in the
Eastern District of New York? I don't know our country singer
Loretta Lynch, who is now the attorney general. While this
goes down, okay, and she's very tight with Comey. As you can
recall, they were both together on the stage together here
and Comey got something going on.
The investigation there's there's kind of a parallel track
here. David Geitner who works at Gawker. I didn't know that.
Little Timmy Geithner's brother had used rent boy. Rent boy.com
to set up, you know, some high end hooker on a business trip
and, you know, and everything's out there. Now his, you know,
his text back and forth. He was going to pay two and a half
$1,000 And, you know, it's a whole like romantic setup. It's
kind of it's pretty embarrassing, and he sent itself
he's back and forth. All of this comes out. up through a rent
boy.com connection. So now the feds have all of the data, all
of the customers, all who are registered with this red boy.com
I'm thinking this is a huge blackmailing opportunity. Oh,
yeah. Wow, this is going to be this. This will have fallout.
This is a good one. So we need to keep our eye on this Oh, keep
your eye out for the database showing up on one of the wiki
things are on the tour somewhere. Because of these
things, it wasn't hacked. I mean, it was taken. It was Yeah,
but you know, doesn't mean it can't be
right. leaked. leaked.
That's the word.
Can you imagine
that you'd want to leak it for political purposes if you needed
to?
Yeah, well, I think I think that's maybe why this that's the
sidetrack that why that Tim Geithner's brother, you know,
the whole sudden he's outed as you know, using rent boy.com. I
think there's a parallel there that is important. Maybe that's
kind of showing what's going on. It does reach into,
oh, maybe what it does is it shows you what could happen but
what
he said so what happened was the the Escort that David Geitner
had contacted, figured out who it was that he was Tim
Geithner's brother, and this guy had some tax problem or, you
know, some issue may was immigration. I don't know what
it was. And David Gardner said, Well, you know what, I'll see
you in wherever he was flying to. And, you know, I'll talk to
my brother about what I can do for you. So this is pretty
embarrassing. Not good at all. Not good at all. So I think
that's kind of the that's a very subtle message out there saying,
Okay, there's got to be a tonne of politicians and people who
really just don't want that information out there. That's
worse than Ashley Madison, and the feds have it. They have it.
That's terrible. Yeah. Well, and the FBI, of course, is since its
inception, and especially during the era of J. Edgar Hoover was
pretty much of a blackmailing operation.
Well, yeah, it's, it's in their DNA.
Yeah, it's in their DNA. Tell me about your sexuality. It's in
your DNA. It only be used for good though.
Big push from Facebook. I have a question for you about this law
student Max shrimps challenge try. That's the wrong one. I'm
sorry. Thank you the voice there. That's not the one I
wanted. It's here. Yes, this one.
This is the Amos six Facebook's latest salvo in the race to
bring the internet to the entire world. Facebook has partnered
with French telecoms company Eutelsat to share all the
broadband of the Omo six satellite you can see here the
bits in dark orange are exactly where this particular satellite
covers that you can see just how sparse it is put all that
together and the need for this technology is very clear.
I love the ominous music is really nice that really setting
it up here. This shows satellites flying through space
over Africa, we believe that connectivity is a human right.
The aim of six is the latest feature of a broader Facebook
led initiative called internet.org. A project to
connect the 4 billion people globally who still have no
internet access.
Okay, we need to pick this apart for a second. Because everyone
is all going googoo gaga eyes overall. So cool. So cool.
Zuckerberg says Jean genius. Yes, he's got it all he's going
to bring internet to everybody to the masses with satellite.
Let me tell you something about internet satellite. It's sucks.
Yeah, totally suck. It's it's the antithesis to the internet,
the internet being connected web or a network of networks is how
it works. And like why is why is this the only way we've got
people with iPhones in Africa we've got here we build pi mesh
network could work down there. You know what turns out that
Google has been rolling out fibre like crazy face in Africa.
Yes. Yeah. Yes, since 2012. They've been rolled the the
entire it's only the coast right now, which makes sense. So
they've pretty much the the west coast of Africa and the east
coast but not South Sudan. South Sudan is the only place that
doesn't have that the fibre has not
put some fibre in this area where I am
Africans needed I feel like
one of those for for retired Germans, Diggins who can
somebody else gets all the goods.
What's gonna happen is, you know, Africa will have Google
fibre and we're going to be stuck with Facebook satellite.
That's probably what's gonna happen. But this is such a PR
play by Facebook trying to make it look cool with with a clearly
subpar product. I mean, I got I got that to that internet. What
is it the internet thing? meaning that you have a little
the Raspberry Pi and downloads the daily dump of, you know,
like 100 megabytes of data, some Kickstarter project, I forgot
what it's called right now. And I don't know that's interesting.
I mean, this you can't build you can't put this together unless
you have a deep technological knowledge. It's no way. B comes
in, you know, it comes in
separate, crappy publicity stunt. Yeah,
yes, it's a crappy publicity stunt. But Wall Street is
falling for it.
Well, people fall for all this crap. Let's face it. Just
wondering when no one's ever tried using cell cell is the
worst. For connections. I mean, really, I can see how you could
fake it by loading some little app in there that make it look
like the thing doing more than it is I mean, forgetting while
you're waiting, Forget trying
to do Skype or FaceTime or anything like that, that would
be near the latency will be out of control. It'll be seconds
before it goes up labour
seconds. Literally, literally, literally. I thought it's all
there was. Okay. i Let's I want to talk about the Jets. New York
Jets. Now I want to talk about the Russian jets. Okay. So the
Russian jets have been harassing the Turks. And there's been,
there's actually there's a couple of funny stories about
the jets and every one of the network news. I'm gonna do a
three by three story or two by three. And it's all in network
news. Oh, the Russians, you know, the Americans had to
divert data move out of the way because these Russian jets are
in Syria. They're causing nothing but trouble. And only
one network and I believe it was ABC mentioned his little tidbit,
which is kind of important, it seems to me, although MSNBC when
they broke it as a breaking news story that Russian jets had an a
close encounter with an American jet in Syria, close encounter,
but they handled it very poorly. They put one of the producers on
to talk about the story. And she just blew it up right at the
beginning by telling you the truth, which was a huge blunder.
So let's play us encounter with the Russian jet. Oops.
That breaking news we had for you last hour coming out of the
Pentagon, where a spokesperson confirmed there has been a close
encounter between the US and Russian aircraft over Syria.
Joining us with more information on this pentagon and the
Pentagon is NBC News National Security producer, Courtney QB
Courtney, what more have you learned?
So we know now the Pentagon is acknowledging that there was an
encounter between a US aircraft and a Russian aircraft over
Syria in the past several days, that just wouldn't make it
clear. They didn't come within 20 miles of one another. But the
US has established these rules for aircraft flying over Syria
right now, that until Russia and the US can come to some sort of
an agreement over how they will deconflict their airspace, the
US aircraft will not get within 20 miles of any Russian aircraft
in the area. So what this meant was a US aircraft came near
close to 20 miles of another Russian aircraft and it had to
actually divert away from its flight path, divert away from
it, whatever its target was, and move out of the area so that
there wouldn't be any kind of a conflict between the US and the
Russian aircraft.
Now, now all the networks played, they left to 20 miles
out of the story. Yeah, I hadn't heard that one. Yeah, they left
the 20 miles out. They just told you there was a close encounter.
ABC, I will admit late late late in the story kind of subtly
mentioned, there is a 20 mile thing, but that only this woman
who's obviously doesn't get didn't get the memo to set and
by the way is 20 Miles 20 Miles, I may be one of those air air
missiles can easily hit something 20 miles away.
Those speeds 20 Miles is not what is it half a minute and 20
seconds.
Well, that's beside the point. 20 Miles is a law. It's not what
I call an close encounter. If you think to give you when a cat
called 20 miles a close encounter, that's like saying
the you know, the moon's going, you know, pretty close to the
Earth, and it's in fact close enough to be in orbit. But this
to me is bull crap. It was just some you know, somebody veered
off a little bit so they made a big story out of they made. Now
that doesn't mean that the Russian guys aren't acting like
dicks, because I believe that they probably are with the
Turks. And this just next story, which is the Russian jets and
Turkey acting like Dix may or may not be true, but whatever. I
can imagine a pilot doing this. And I think it's and I think
they think it's funny. The Syrian Observatory
for Human Rights said the Palmyra strikes killed 15
Islamic State fighters. It said another four Islamic State
fighters were killed in the Urraca the eastern city, which
has been the group's stronghold in Syria in the last two years.
Despite the progress, Turkish President Erdogan went to Russia
against the losing Ankara's friendship after Russian
warplanes allegedly twice violated its airspace your
Syrian border at the weekend. Moscow said the first occasion
was a mistake and it is investing the second on Tuesday
Turkey also complained F 16 jets were harassed and put on radar
lock by an unidentified me 29 aircraft on the Syrian border.
NATO said Moscow's explanation was unacceptable.
So what are these guys? The MiG 29 locks on BPPV on the one of
these gifts these days a guy freaks yeah goose goose. So I I
personally thought it was kind of funny but I'm sure if
you're violating you're flying a Mach one and not so funny.
No, it's not funny at all. But it is I could just see these
guys doing that,
of course is what you do. PPP PPP. I'm over here PPP PPP. Just
so you know.
So the Russian jets and Turkey. The part two is the NATO guy.
This is now this I liked this clip because this is the this is
your guy. This is the guy you do. Who's a guest the head of
NATO is this
isn't this is the new guy from Finland. This is the dream guy
Finland we have I gotta I gotta live here on before I can do
him. Well, here he goes his Yen's yen so this is
for us. This doesn't look as an accident. We have to speak it
like a Dutch
guy. That's how it works. Not an accident is very bad, very, very
bad of the ocean.
For us. This doesn't look as an accident. This is a serious
violation of the airspace violation. And actually there
were two violations during the weekend. So that just adds to
the fact that this doesn't look like an accident. The violation
lasted for so for for a long time compared to previous
violations of airspace. We have seen all the places in the in
Europe.
I think he also said as a part of that. That flying over Turkey
is a breaching NATO airspace, which I found yeah curious.
Yeah, because it's not NATO Turkey Well, I
think Turkey is NATO. No, they're
not NATO. I thought they were no they're I think they're friends
of NATO.
Now they're just not in the EU I think they're a NATO they might
be home I'm
maybe I'm wrong. Turkey and NATO.
I'm pretty sure I thought
it was just that they were just friends and therefore they get
some kind of nine You're right. I'm sorry. Now they become okay.
I'm wrong. Yes, NATO airspace. Go away. Stupid Russians.
Me Well, this report I'm not gonna play. The third part of
that is not that interesting. But let's play Russians needle
the US over sincerity and terrorism. I thought this was
howling
Defence Minister Roberta Politi, she said the US will however
conduct basic technical talks with Russia about efforts to
ensure flights over Syria are conducted safely. Meanwhile, the
Russian Defence Ministry says Washington's refusal to share
intelligence with it about the position of the Islamic State
militants shows the US is looking for an excuse not to
fight terrorism.
I think they're I think they've nailed it. Yeah, the Russians
have figured this out. Yeah. We don't want to fight any of this
stuff. We want verbalization Yep. We want ISIS to do well.
The Orion the Iraqis have probably figured this out too.
That's why they're inviting the Russians and we're not talking
about that. We want my
sis to be great again.
We were this whole story that were the American public's being
fed is nonsense.
We have audio from the cockpit of the MiG 29 locking on to one
of our fighters really?
Take any selfies guy I heard that yeah, that is him
taking a selfie.
Oh, man. Okay, I got a little entre mon here. Yeah. So on the
one of the I started to sense I was so on one of the morning
shows on a weekend. This was clipped from the soup, but I did
just no soup stuff and I just clip this one part
super hashtag soup. Soup soup.
These the soup that Shawnee the super Yeah. This is a clip from
a show there's apparently a club they track down and just listen
to this clip of the love laundry clip. Oh maybe it's time
you change your attitude
to be more positive,
more enthusiastic. Aren't everybody when they go down do
laundry now more like these guys. Bring your dirty load me
up. There
we go. They love laundry which render the machines
sure I got that.
I thought this was right up your alley. This is the love laundry
guys. They for the love laundry tour. This a club of men
somewhere and they have I guess they rented a house or something
and And each guy has donated or brought in some sort of antique
washing machine. And so they have all these different washing
machines, most of them fairly modern, not like a bunch of old
crummy ones. This is sad. And these guys have a meeting every
week. amongst themselves, they bring their laundry in and they
use the different machines and discuss its mechanisms. It's
very sad. It's very nerdy. It's very, it's, it's very funny. But
they had this one, I remember this washing machine, I haven't
seen it for years. It because it's kind of there's some
fascinating washing machines. But there's this one, they call
it the pounder. I think it was made by World pool. And it has a
mechanism in the middle of some sort of like weird looking flaps
on it, and it goes up and down instead of back and forth to
shake up the clothes. And it just goes up and down really
fast. And it just it just makes a pounding sound. I don't know
how this thing ever lasted more than 10 loads by ordered the
pound or once
from Amazon. Bang bang bang. That'd be something different.
All right, I want to split up the D block C D block I want to
split it up split up a little bit of what's happening in in
the election cycle 2016 Because we've seen some I mentioned the
top of the show we had Hillary just making a sweep. Everyone's
confused. Well, how did this happen? Of course it was very
well coordinated NBC
now fake crying so Wow.
Yeah. It's it appears that word went out and NBC is really
helping the Obama administration get Joe Biden onto the stage and
to push HILLARY OUT or down a couple of things that that I saw
that I thought were interesting, although here is this is the
town hall that Hillary did which was if you have an opportunity
to to watch this this is where she was crying this was a this
was a very well orchestrated every question was was softball
dumb, but this one kind of caught my attention.
Well, first I want to thank you for your candidacy. You're such
a role model for women my age and so thank you for putting
yourself out there. Thank you for your candidacy your emails.
You told Senator McCluskey that you guys should go out and
celebrate with something unhealthy to drink. So I'm
wondering what your favourite celebratory unhealthy drink is?
A Martini vodka martini.
Shaken not stirred Shaken,
not stirred. Yes. on MSNBC, this is where it got kind of ugly.
The other day she just drink straight vodka. She probably
hammered it down. Yeah, her face looks like it man. Did you see
the cover the National Enquirer what I told you about was
yesterday. She has six six months to live. And it bill is
forcing her to do this is great. So series two, they had this.
I'm gonna play it out of order maybe more interesting. They had
a focus group completely completely set up with with with
shills to bash Hillary and here's the discussion they had
about New Hampshire, a more sceptical
audience. They similar on the emails don't like the way she
handled it, but they don't think there's anything wrong with it,
they don't think it'd be a big deal. So that conversation which
we showed a little bit of started talking about her
personality, we showed her a video of what we thought was her
best giving a speech about policy and about her beliefs.
And boy, they had a visceral reaction. And once that one
woman suggested that she might have a personality issue, the
whole room agreed. And as he saw a show of hands, they think
that's what could stop her that she's polarising. And there's
aspects of her personality that they think men in particular
won't like
now, we actually got a good bit in there, out that was even more
negative gallery because we thought it was actually too
negative and didn't like some of the connotations there.
So they cut out pieces, because it was too negative about
Hillary, are you interested now in hearing what they said what
was left in
it? Remember, I think I've seen this. This is actually quite
interesting. I'm glad you clipped it because I sure
didn't. Here's here's
the focus group think my opinion is a little bit it's a little
more general just in that she speaks articulately about her
positions without having that edge and that scorned kind of
woman thing. That's a little off putting and then more about
that. I think that that's I think that can put off a lot of
male voters. Oh, tell
me what it's like what do you what are you seeing that you're,
you know, when she's, I don't want to use the word but you can
eat that like women need to be equal. I mean, I don't I just
write I don't think I don't feel unequal.
I agree. I don't feel unequal. I don't feel that I've had a job
where I feel uneasy. closer to my male counterparts. So it's
not an issue that speaks to me. It's a double standard. If
it was a guy up there saying that he would be impassioned, do
agree with Shannon that some people might see that. Oh, yeah,
I like Hillary. I think she's a strong candidate. But she has
that. I don't think you'd have to have that. Yeah. And she has
out of that condescending and I can see that causing gridlock.
What person says gridlock? Are they just some some guy off the
street? I don't think they said and see
that causing gridlock. She does seem
like a little condescending. condescending. It's like a
strange word for me. I'm thinking it's more like Beachy.
Yeah. Well, or and I'm a woman. I deserve it. Yeah. That I'd
vote for. That's my biggest problem. I think it's not
necessarily
raise your hand if you think that could hurt Hillary Clinton
chances of getting everybody's hand goes up a lot of men. I
think
people love her or hate her. And that's part of what does that to
her is that attitude or whatever.
So condescending benches, the consensus.
And then they nailed it. Yeah, of
course. And then NBC somehow they get an exclusive John an
exclusive. Exclusive of the powerful and personal ad, urging
Joe Biden to run this morning that campaign calling for Biden
campaign is now up and running. Today, NBC News is getting an
exclusive first look at the first pro Biden ad exclusive
First, look, women, these are the guys who make ads, and then
buy airtime stations to run the ads. So they gave an exclusive
first look. What do you think they got is his freebie, John,
you think there's a freebie they get?
I doubt it. But they may have gotten a discount, or they may
have gotten a basement there's placement place, I
think it's a big buy, I
think is a huge buy could be a big buyer and at placement, you
get a free deal. You get this at the beginning. And well place
has got to be in a position where people are into it.
Or maybe it's like, look, we're gonna give you this you can use
it as an exclusive. Here's our media plan. And we will let you
in. We'd really like to go with you guys. We're gonna see how
you do and could you throw in Scarborough making some fun of
Hillary, that would be nice if you could do that. So they went
all in. And this ad is Oh, Joe is angelic to hit the air
produced in hopes of drafting the vice president into the 2016
race drafting. It's a super PAC. Obviously, it's real money going
into real advertising to really get him to run. All that's
missing is the candidate.
You're on the cusp of some of the most astonishing
breakthroughs in the history of mankind.
This powerful and personal ad produced by a group of Biden
supporters with a simple message, Joe run. Okay. So I
went to see what Joe was up to. And Joe was speaking to it was
for Hume, it was the Human Rights Council, I think. And
he's on the podium. Big boomy sound, I gotta hand it to this
guy, John. Key doesn't use a teleprompter. And he's good.
Whatever has happened. Joe Biden. I think he has it all. He
has everything needed to dupe the Americans into voting for
him. But of course, you know, we wouldn't be no agenda do we pick
up on a couple of anomalies in his speech,
the American people are so much better than their leaders give
them credit for not only did all of you by the chances you've
taken in your careers in your life, not only did you say, your
love free you've heard me say this before you've set free
millions of straight men and women.
John, we're free. We're free at last thank God Almighty, I'm
free to talking to the gays and lesbians and transgenders and by
gays and lesbians how to set the straights free have set
us free. And and listen carefully. Again. This is all
off the top of his head pun intended.
You freed them from the stigma they fear if they spoke up and
defended their lesbian or gay or bisexual or transgender trans
gesture. That's the one. I like that
this is the truth always wants to come out. And Joe Biden sure
this is why I love this guy. I think I think I love him more
than Trump. Now. When he says trans jester Are you kidding me?
That's great, because that's probably how he sees him. He's
like, What is this court jester running around? dude with a wig?
You can just see Joe saying that can't you?
Oh yeah. guys about is amenable to the gay and lesbian trans
gesture community. You know, as an as a drunken Irishman in the
New York cop
and and he's going to take credit for something which
you'll probably recall what happened.
There are lesbian or gay or bisexual or transgender,
transgender brothers. Mr. Friend, college roommate I
believe from the beginning that not only did the social dis
approbation,
dis approbation. Wow, I know and this is without prompter.
What does this mean? She'll just add I have no idea oh,
this app probation is probably hate this app strong disapproval
typically on moral grounds, this app probation, dynamite word,
what
did you use for a modifier?
I believe in the beginning that not only did the social dis
approbation, social social society keeps so many LGBT
members from coming forward, it also inhibited the 10s of
millions of straight people coming forward to support. But
as I said back in 2012,
here he is, do you remember when he trumped the president? on
same sex marriage?
On 2012?
Yeah, don't you remember that? Like the President was vaguely?
Yeah. And then the President did this quick sit down with with
what's her name? Ross Abrams, I think was her name. Yeah. And
everyone was pissed off the Joe and said, Oh, yeah, same sex
marriage is great. So he's now taking full credit
for it back in 2012. The vast majority of the American people
agreed with me with what I said and have agreed with you for a
long time before then. So you left the Supreme Court?
Absolutely. No choice. No choice whatsoever. I mean,
he's doing something very interesting. And I have a second
clip, which just has a dynamite punch line at the end. He is his
message, which I think we'll see him do is because of the
pressure that you the American people, and in this case, it's
only LGBT, but okay, the you the American people, you've created
so much pressure that the Supreme Court had no other
option. Which is, doesn't sound like this is how the Supreme
Court is supposed to run now. And but he what he's doing, he's
handing the citizenry on a platter, saying, Look, when you
come into action, when you want something to change, you can do
it so that the Supreme Court can't even go around you. Now,
here's the one with the big punch line. At the end,
there are still those shrill voices in the national political
arena. Hillary's trying to undo what has finally been done. But
they're not going to succeed. Don't worry about it.
He almost sounds like George Carlin there. The game is
rigged, not going to succeed, not going to happen. Very good.
This very,
very good, trying to undo what has finally been done. But
they're not going to succeed. Don't worry about it. The
amount? No, not really. I mean, this is certainly the American
people have moved so far beyond them. And their appeals to
prejudice and fear and homophobia. And because of how
far you move the American people, the remainder, the work
and much work has to be done. I promise you will come much more
quickly. And more Surely, it will increase in his rapidity,
the change that we need.
Another good rapidity this guy is dynamite. John, this is this
is all off the cuff. There's no paper, there's no nothing. It's
great. I strongly
support the Equality Act, and it will pass as we'll pass. It may
not pass this congress passed because it's simple. And it's
straightforward. The American people think the law already
prevents an employer from firing someone because they are LGBT.
People already think it's illegal to deny you housing. The
American people already think what the ACT calls for the
problem is they don't know. That is still legal.
Listen to the cadence in the build up of this. i You're not
impressed. I'm really impressed by this.
I just think will go on play it. I mean, so I'm not I'm not I
mean, I joke and give a speech. But that's not what the problem
is with him. Okay, well
wait for the punch line, pretty places.
So the one way if you could change this overnight, would be
to infuse in every mind in America, that there are still
there are still 40 Washington mi 31 states so
he was prepared. He had all the data
that can deny you employment, and housing, etc. We just have
to say, look, I'm not your staff, but I'm kinda like your
staff. Here's the deal. I've told this to Chad. A lot of you
are very are successful women and men put your money into
advertising not about other people let them know it's
illegal in their state
put your money into advertising Are you kidding me job this is
this guy's all in he said by ads for me
to deny someone a job based on race let them know the American
people the American people are already with you look at the
numbers though there's homophobes still left. Most of
them are running for President I think was good.
You get impressed by these guys. Blanca. Yeah, it was still has a
couple of problems. Oh, he's the one he's a drunk. And he'll be
given that same speech hammered. And it won't be quite as slick.
It'll be it'll be great for the show. It was half and a half in
the bag. And that speech to be honest about us where he came up
with his trench trance gesture is a treasure gesture I'm
calling. I think he can hold his liquor.
You think he's drunk or not drunk?
I think he was drunk during that speech. But he was just he was
he wasn't at his at his edge where I thought I completely
like
him. I think you know, what can Hillary do? Hillary is supposed
to be the
the LGBT thank Hillary wants him to run. She should come out and
say she's she's bisexual. To hear this out. Hillary is
Hillary, she is a force to be reckoned with. If she can get
Joe to run, Joseph is not going to take anything and take much
from her. He's going to, he's going to kill Bernie Sanders.
And the two of them are going to have a little fistfight in
verbally at the debates, and they're not the first one and
maybe the second one. And then you know, Sanders will be taken
down a notch or two. And it'll it'll be Hillary will rise above
it. This is a Hillary plant play. Hillary wants Joe to run.
Every time they asked her about this. In fact, I don't have any
clips of this, but I've seen it over and over again. What do you
think about Joe Biden? Ron, Joe's a good friend of mine, I
don't want to talk about it. We'll see what happens if he
gets in the race. And she's very amenable about Joe running
doesn't discourage doesn't encourage you. So neutral is
ridiculous. So I think Joe is gonna be talked into it. There's
been a lot
of I think he's already in I think he's in right then
he probably is or wouldn't be given his speeches. I
think he'll be at the CNN debate, which they're now
touting like a boxing match. Have you seen the promos for
this thing?
It's not going to draw anybody unless Trump becomes a Democrat.
Yeah.
They're trying though. They're so clueless over there. They
think that Hillary Bernie is going to be a fun show.
Yeah, no, that remains to be seen. Yeah. No,
of course, it's not going to be a fun show. But they think that
they're probably pre selling the ad slots for the pre and post
analysis, like craving
that people like about Trump during these debates. And during
his speeches, is that he goes after guys. He calls them weak.
Yeah, he calls and dipshits Yeah, he calls him stupid. He
goes on and that's entertaining and people will go watch that.
You got Bernie Sanders won't say a bad thing about Hillary
period. And Hillary won't say a bad thing about Bernie. It's
gonna be a love fest who wants to watch that? It's gonna suck.
That totally suck.
That's why you need to bring Joe when he's the wildcard for the
show.
That might help Joe for the show.
I'm gonna show my move by Joe knight to no agenda. Imagine all
the people who did
now we had a note from someone that Pay Pal and not allow me
to, to make a one time $30 donation. It keeps changing it
to 20 Thanks pay pals check, but I never heard this from anybody.
So Pay Pal is like now 20 Strange, but we want to take a
few other people to attune. totin now I think is that to
tell to tell that
tone? Yeah, we had him before tone to tonnelle
tone to tonnelle Yeah. And $100.01 from Amsterdam, right

Public Radio reminded me that I gave him $100.06 months ago they
were asking for another donation. It's supposed to be
annually but they have been coming at me every six months. I
may be listening to them for a total of 30 minutes in the last
year. Listening to you guys, I decided that you deserve way
more than they do. They deserve way more than they do. So here

sometimes when you don't use your daughter's Pay Pal.
But okay, taking money from the kids piggy bank. That's not
good, you can't do that.
Then I wanted to just pick one out under the under the $50
level from Jared Hall, who was a frequent donor made a donation
of $20.52 to cover the solid the cost of two donations. Were the
eight year anniversary show for both me and my best friend Sam
dank, hit me in the mouth around show 646 And ever since then, we
can't help but laugh at current events. We don't mind being
called spooks. In fact, it's right of privilege at this point
and a title I hope to include in my knighthood someday, I guess
these are the guys from Virginia. So they are spooks. It
could be I like it. It's good spooks in Virginia.
That's good for me. Oh,
I get it. We get mixed reviews on the spook moniker. We don't
use it normally. Yes, we do. But we do. We we get different
feedback from different members of the intelligence community.
Some people find it offensive. Some people think it's funny.
Other people don't give a crap, which is the majority and I
don't know I wonder
what is what is the current term then for the LPC now as well you
can't call them spooks. You have to call
on any good input on intelligence
workers are some things that we have to intelligence
workers. That's what it is. Yeah. Intelligence engineer, but

agenda nation.com/brings
Love the mutton in meat.
Hey, do you want to? I wanted to mention just briefly just tie
into our model for a moment. Okay. That you know, we don't
have any advertising we talk about anything we want. We have
we could do whatever we want. We have no masters other than the
actual service life. Well, yeah. If you've been following
draftkings.com You know the insider trading. These guys
spend a lot of money on podcast advertising. Oh,
I didn't notice this. Oh, yeah.
They a big podcast to like Joe Rogan.
Ever, you know, I've said this under Horowitz and I talked
about these guys, though Draft Kings and the other one there's
two operations that are running parallel. And by the way, a lot
of it turns out a lot of I think DraftKings is owned by a bunch
of their got deals with NBC. I don't even know they advertise
on Howard Stern. They also are partly owned by Jerry Jones of
the Dallas Cowboys and craft of the of the team in Boston. Their
their ownership is deep into the sports world they have deals
with a Major League Baseball is, I don't know their painful,
painful ticket for these as Draft Kings and the other one,
whatever it's called. But it's these guys are just going crazy.
I would if they were advertising. If I was getting
money from them for an ad I would demand payment on the
right immediate payment. I wouldn't go what
I'm interested in 60 days, but I'm interested in just to prove
a theory. I would like people to find podcasts covering the story
that had that take advertisers from DraftKings.
I don't think there'll be a podcast in the world that would
cover the story.
Absolutely. Will there be not a single one? And this is exactly
the point now is just it's just fantasy football. It's insider
training. It's a billion dollars. But I think I don't
think I don't see any of these big podcasts are saying oh, well
you know these guys are doing this. I don't see that. Why
would they? Exactly that's the point.
No, no, no, I gotta say anything. You just buy it
betting biting the hand that feeds you. Exactly. Exactly.
That's why we asked for donations directly from Mark was
in this came up in the conversation. This really
bothered me in a conversation. The conversation The somebody
brought up to Oh, and I've noticed this on Twitter is
sometimes become a meme. If anyone says, Oh, I hate it when
people said that you're the product, if you're not petyarre,
that you're not the pride as both. It's both. And so they've
been trying to condemn the notion that if you're getting
something for free, you're the product because you're being
sold to the advertisers. And they write, there's been two or
three
essays written and why do people hate it when that when that's
being said, why do they hate
it because they get advertising going on? I haven't seen anyone
you know, as for straight support, say anything like this.
Let me go back and explain it again. I first heard about this
idea and knew about this idea when I was working at Ziff Davis
and I knew Bill's if, who was the king of special interest
publishing, and he came up with the formulas and perfected the
idea of putting the magazine like boating and flying and
brides may modern bride and all these, I think everybody wanted
but how about QR Kyo was it was a QR is that QR Zed? Yeah, the
the ham radio magazine, same thing.
So you have these, you have these specialty magazines. And
the idea was that you, you cultivate an audience that's
very specific. And PC Magazine, for example, would always like
really condemn when you had an editor come in and say, I think
we should have more more articles for beginners. And they
would just almost get fired on the spot for thinking that way.
Because you don't want beginners you want a certain group of very
high end readers, that you can package your package to the
readers, and you hand them to an advertiser and say, look, what
we've got, we have got this audience. And that's why they do
studies on how much money you make and how much college you
had and all this stuff. So you can back it up. Oh, and they're
all very educated. And they go to this show, and they go to
that show. Look, here they are, we're selling them to you. Give
us $50,000 was one of one page ad cost in PC Magazine during
its heyday. And so they boy, yeah, I'll give you a tenner,
these ads, here's a half million dollars, we because we want to
talk to these these people. And that's what they want to do.
They wanted to put an ad in the magazine that talked
specifically to this audience that was created for the
purposes of selling to the advertiser, you are the product.
I don't see how it can be any simpler than that. So
let me understand this. If you follow that formula, and that
was that still a very successful formula, I think, Oh, yeah. So
if you had let's say, let's take a random let's say you had a
tech show, then to really succeed, you should have lots of
technology based advertisers. Which is the antithesis of what
people want? What producers say they will do.
Well, this isn't one of this is a this is a I'll tell you the
story if people want the inside stuff, because Bill's if had
this theory, and he believed that PCMA any of his magazines
with modern bride PCMA any of them that if you're reading
modern bride or today's bride or whatever, the magazine was huge
by the way, if you're reading that magazine, he believed that
everything in that magazine should be about being a bride
all the advertising should be about bride related. And the
same thing with PC Magazine when you open PC Magazine, you would
see nothing but as for computers can motherboards servers uses
Yeah, all kinds of stuff. The idea was indeed because it was
brought up like the sales guys don't want this they want to
sell ads. So they'd always bring up and get fired for doing it.
It was too hard. They bring up if we can get it we can get an
average and we can get Ford we can have Ford come in we can
have General Motors wants to buy a bunch of ads and PC Magazine.
Why did you never see any ads from General Motors in PC
Magazine, because it violated the principle that you want an
immersive readership you want to read are immersed in the
technology and the idea was because you're thinking about
technology because all the articles are about technology
all new stuff and reviews you are more open to now accepting
an ad when it comes your way in the magazine said you know maybe
I'll buy that but it will take you out of the world it's like
It's like Disneyland Yeah, they put a berm all around Disney
World or Disneyland because they don't want anyone seeing outside
the little world they've created you take them out of the world
when you put the for dad in there or cigarette out or
anything the well Florida now hide that you have to get back
into the world is too hard. Don't run those sorts of ads to
people who do podcasts about technology should only buy this
theory have advertisers for technology products. Yeah, and
they don't That's my point. Yeah, it's dumb.
They don't because they have some well, why they don't is
dumb, I guess I
don't know. Well, there's a lot of reasons why they say they
don't but the but this is what you want to do. Right? But they
don't do it because of this and that. So I'm holier than thou
there's a lot of that but that never works out. No, but
advertising is bad no matter what it is. And when anybody
says that well, there was a they did the best job they could at
PC magazine to keep things one thing separate from another and
they would they borderline fire anybody who was mixed mingling
with the sales guys right now I was kind of I love mingling with
the sales guys, because I learned all these sales because
they have
discretionary budgets for streaming, they have big
budgets, the stripper buying, let's
get this expensive bottle of wine. And so I'm always hanging
out to sell it, but I was always I was always a contractor. And
they and I was I made it clear that I was doing this stuff. But
you know, it's not approved, you shouldn't be hanging out with
the sales guys, you know, because they always think
they're going to do a sweet deal. If you write about this, I
don't know. But I never did any of that. Because I tend to write
about trends anyway. Right? But it's a very interesting
structure, the whole thing, but I can tell you this advertising
for the kind of work we do is impossible. It's impossible,
because we cannot afford to have anything influencing our
coverage and deconstruction of these stories. And that's why we
asked for your help. Exactly.
This, I was gonna save this for Sunday, but maybe I should bring
it in now. We were talking about Block Pop block. I can't even
say it. Block pocalypse. The AdBlock pocalypse lock pod
Apocalypse wait. So Adblock Plus. right on the heels of the
the new Google CEO has come out with the their request where
they are going to start allowing ads to come through the ad
blocker. As I predicted. You did predict this. And they have they
have now on their website. The requirements for acceptable ads.
There's no acceptable ads. If you're buying if you're using
AdBlock or you're blocking for a reason. And they
are they are going to take a nominal fee from advertisers as
their state a nominal fee.
This is a form of extortion. They should be very careful.
This is I think this is racketeering
Well, in fact, I think I can prove it's racketeering and I'll
show you why in a minute. You want to run down the quick list
of what is what is an acceptable ad. I'd love to hear that. Okay.
Point one static advertisements only no animation sounds or
similar. Preferably text only no attention grabbing images. Now
they save preferably so there's a hedge there. Yeah. ad
placement ad should never obscure page content. For pages
featuring a reading text ads should not be pages featuring a
reading text ads should not be placed in the middle where they
interrupt the reading flow. However, they can be placed
above the text content below it or on the sides. The same
applies a search result pages paid search results cannot be
mixed with organic results. Hello, Google. When ads are
placed above the content of a main page, it should require the
user to it should not require the user to scroll down the
available vertical space should be 700 pixels. Advertisers
should not occupy more than 1/3 of that height. When placed on
the side ad should leave enough space for the main content. The
available horizontal space should be expected to be at
least 1000 pixels. Advertising should be clearly marked as such
with the word advertising or its equivalent and should be
distinguishable from page content, for instance, by a
border or a different background colour. Marking and placement
requirements do not apply for hyperlinks with affiliate refer
IDs. And that goes on and on and on. What I found interesting,
those are all that is not going to make any ad work. No but what
I found interesting was the acceptable ads manifesto. Oh, go
to acceptable ads.org We the undersigned, the undersigned
being Reddit, Duck Duck go share thought Adblock Plus, of course,
customer the URL again, I'm sorry, acceptable ads.org. Okay,
and they have a manifesto. So this is the user side this is
this is they're saying this is users who have a manifesto where
we will accept as an acceptable ad. So they're using the same
language. This is our manifesto. One, acceptable ads are not
annoying to acceptable ads do not disrupt or distort the page
content we're trying to read three acceptable ads are
transparent with us being without with us about being an
acceptable ads are transparent with us about being an ad for
acceptable ads are effective without shouting at us. Five
acceptable ads are appropriate to the site we are on and it
goes on and on and on. And on. But here's the thing. I did a
who is on because it doesn't say exactly who is acceptable.
ads.org is the Who is this website is registered to
Vladimir Pallant. Who is the leader Belapur for Adblock Plus.
That's racketeering right there. So they're pretending to be the
good guys on acceptable ads. And they're also running the
consumer manifesto.
me a break. Huh? There's a column in that in there
somewhere for you, John.
Yeah, you're right.
It has a column in there as a column in there. Well,
I am very disappointed in I would call this legal
racketeering, unless of the district attorney or somebody
gets on this. But I would say that this is very disappointing,
because I like the product. AD, what was it? And use it? Yes.
Well, you start seeing acceptable ads show up?
Well, these acceptable ads, I will say this, there's one thing
I'll give them credit for this. They're ineffective. Those ads
are no good. That's
exactly who wants an ad that doesn't shout or have flashy
images,
this has not going to work. So what you're going to have to do
for advertising in the future, if you're going to get through
all this stuff, because these guys are going to block anything
that that's actually effective, which amounts to it, because at
the end, the other guys aren't going to work. No one's going to
do them. So there's, there's guys aren't going to clean up on
this great idea. Know, what has to everything has to go toward
native advertising. And
I know I disagree. I disagree group Google is selling some
product where they say, Oh, it makes the compresses your
website pages, but it also then encapsulates your advertising in
Google's safe advertising way.
The average blog, Google, I'm not, I'm dropping Google from
the discussion. Okay. I'm talking about content sites
other than Google, that had to have stories that a New York
Times Online, the politico,
I think you're misunderstanding what I'm saying, though, Google
is selling a product that will effectively turn your website
into a website that cannot be blocked by ad blockers, because
it's all from the same URL. It's the Google system, so and
they'll change it to whatever your domain name is. And it all
comes under the guise of it'll load faster. And then they
determine you can't use JavaScript or some versions of
CSS.
It's they're fine. Or you're making the assumption that
everyone's gonna buy into this.
No, I'm just telling you what's going on. I'm not making any
assumption.
Well, this is all bad.
Frou Frou advertised for advertisers, it's bad
for advertising advertisers, bad for advertisers bad for the
users. It's just bad that this whole advertising thing on the
internet is still hasn't shaken itself out.
It won't. It's not gonna work. Long term, it doesn't work. I've
never believed in it.
But has to work on something.
And the only thing that works is like Spam. Spam still works as
long as you can, you know, scatter enough then people pick
it up. People are dumb click on things people are sometimes
interested. But you have to you have to have the flashy image
yet that doesn't work otherwise.
Yeah, people just block it out with their own brain. They don't
even need ad blocker.
I took your advice. And I watched a couple nights worth of
Jimmy Kimmel. You said that was the best late night talk show.
It is and and I you know Fallon and okay, whatever. Colbert he
better find his voice. That's his problem. And people he has
to find his voice people
know he's still doing that character.
He's got to amp it up. He's really got to go big time back
to the character. That's his problem. But okay.
Okay, go through the character. That's possible. But then
Jimmy Kimmel did something I liked a lot. And I've been I
just haven't had the opportunity to talk about Donald Trump's tax
plan which I read I don't know if you had a chance to look at
it or if you even heard I heard Yeah, I got most of it. Any
initial comments? No, none you know, you're not for or against.
It's not what I you know what I'm for? Well, it's not about
wealth tax,
I don't care. Well, he has a wealth tax in there. It's kind
of it's wishy washy wealth tax.
But chemo did something that I liked a lot because it's a
variation an honest variation on the man on the street interview.
Now we know if you do man on the street, be interview 100 People
you pull the four funniest out that you want to make your point
with, and then you air that right. That's how it works.
Well,
and then before you go on, because I've been watching, I've
watched a lot of Kimmel and his man on the street things, which
include the clip that you've been playing, which is part of
one of his man on the street bits are varied and he has a
number, maybe 20 or 30 variations on how he does the
man on the street. It's, it's, it's approximate, it's
approaching as close to genius in this one little man on the
street. And I mean, when Lana was doing he had to one bit
jaywalk. can't write it. And then he tried to change it to
something else. But jaywalking was the only thing that worked.
Kimble has a number of different ideas. He's got a very good
writing crew, I have to say. So the
plan here was we're going to go out we're going to first
establish people are all in Hillary bots. And then we're
going to say, what do you think of her tax plan? But instead of
it being Hillary's tax plan, which I don't think she hasn't
been announced yet? They took pieces from Trump's tax plan.
That's one of his bits.
Are you a Hillary Clinton supporter? Yes, I am.
I like to hear lucre. Yeah. supporter.
I'm a Hillary Clinton supporter. Well, for one, it's definitely
time that we have a woman in the White House, but I think a
female president would be a great idea.
Are you a Hillary Clinton supporter? I
sure am.
What about Donald Trump? Next, support Donald Trump at all? I
do not and would you be able to support anything about Donald
Trump?
In short, no,
Donald Trump? No, not so much.
I feel cold towards Donald Trump. He wouldn't support
Donald Trump. Okay, and would you support Hillary Clinton's
plan to cut the corporate tax rate from 35% to 15%? I'd be
happy. I think that's a good idea. Do you support Hillary's
plan to eliminate the estate tax? As I do support that? Do
you support her plan to eliminate taxes for those who
make less than $25,000 a year?
I would support that.
Do you support her plan to eliminate the alternative
minimum tax on turning minimum tax?
Yeah, I support that.
Do you support her plan to eliminate the estate tax? Yes.
And what would you say if I told you those are all Donald Trump's
proposals?
I would say is pretty smart. Man, I feel stupid.
I would say that that's shocking. But I mean, if it is
I'm still not voting for Donald Trump. He's a caricature
of Donald Trump's politics.
Did you hear that? Programming? Did you hear the mind control
kick in on that woman? Uh huh. That was fantastic. All of a
sudden, you can almost hear the switch flip.
I would say that that's shocking. But I mean, if it is
I'm still not voting for Donald Trump. He's like with a click.
He's a character caricature. What would
you say? If I told you those are all Donald Trump's policies?
I wouldn't believe they will support Donald Trump. They're
the black man, a smart guy. for Donald Trump. That sounds like a
good deal to me. I liked that. I thought that was
really good. Yeah, he does a bunch of those things. The one
that I had the clip of, which is the Woodward where I took that
that little sub clip is an is another example of what he does
with the man on the street. And in this case, he sets up a
premise of some sort in this case, the premise is a question
is not always a question, but in this case is it's a question.
And he asked the question of the person on the street. And then
the audience is required to say yes or no, whether this person
is going to sit answer it a certain way. And in this case,
I've seen that yeah, he asked to be then there's two. I only have
two examples on here. Maybe there's a third, but there's two
but the second one is priceless. The first one's got that
screwball. And I just want to play it so you can hear the the
where that where it came from, but the premise is where the
question is, did you have you taken a selfie of yourself
today? Which I would think is, you know, this is like, to me,
is an indictment of society. But also like, are you an asshole
could be the question. Yes. And so the so the guy they stopped
it clip and they say, What is he gonna say yesterday? And they
all say yeah, no, and they generally get it pretty correct.
But you have to listen to this clip because there's this this
woman comes on after this, this character, and it's just kind of
something only get in Los Angeles.
I'm Brian Eubank and I'm from Corona, California. boring
place. He posted a selfie today a resounding yes. Let's say yes,
I have. Yeah, looks great. I know the voracious we look
really loud. Everyone in
the word doomed by the way. Fucking Doom, John. It's over.
It's.
So everyone in the rest of the country thinks everyone in LA
sounds like right. All right, next. Hi, what's your name? And
where are you? My
name is Heidi Odette sharp singer. I'm originally from
Cinnaminson New Jersey. Heidi. Have you posted a selfie today?
Has Heidi
posted a selfie today? Well, let's
find out.
I challenged Evil Knievel in 1974 when he failed to jump over
Snake River Canyon, somebody
was that real? He was used as a kook. She's a great Kook.
This is the beginning he was just like, Oh,
that's cool. He's great
over Snake River Canyon. Somebody made a campaign a shoe
out of me so I never got the job. can be verified? Yes. All
right. All right.
Let's get back on
all this can be verified What is she got some
agreement? That's fantastic. Yeah, I came across a little
clip and this was kind of in windy we did. We got 10 minute
warning here. We got to stop. This is in I'm sure you saw the
drunk kid who was demanding his jalapeno mac and cheese.
Everyone was laughing about it. Everybody had that? Whatever.
Okay. But we complain about millennials and we complain that
they have all their problems. And I ran across this clip from
dragnet. When did this run? Is this like 60s right mid 50s 60s.
One of the run
I think it was went through the transition from black and white
to colour so I think it was probably mid 50s too close to
the 70s. It was on for a long time.
But I don't know when this episode came out. It is in
colour so it's probably not one of the early early ones. And
they pick up some hippie scum kid which we were like, I think
kind of back then like damn hippies. Was that kind of
analogous to what we call Yeah, damn millennials.
No, no as much though they hatefulness of the hippies in
the late 60s, which is probably one of the sons and through the
70s was extremely high.
Well, isn't there hate for millennials not to not the same?
Well, it's we have a good start. It's just
millennials are rather lovable
noodle boy. Two words noodle boy. Yeah, they're well, they're
lovable. So here's Joe Friday lecturing the hippie kid. And I
just thought it was interesting to hear the the similarities
between what we complain about regarding Millennials versus
this probably late 60s hippie kid able to free to date and
make their own mistakes because
of it. And that may just include you. I don't know. Maybe part of
it's the fact that you're in a hurry. You have grown up on
instant orange juice, flip, instant entertainment, dial
seven digits instant communication, turnkey push your
pedal instant transportation flagship card instant money,
shoving a problem push a few buttons, instant answers. But
some problems you can't get quick answers to no matter how
much you want him. We took a little boy in the central
receiving hospital yesterday. He was four years old. He weighs
eight and a half pounds. His parents just haven't bothered to
feed him.
That kind of It sounds very similar to today. Yeah. A
universal except for the instant orange juice. I didn't realise
that was an issue insert entertainment you know flash a
card get some cash seven digits dial a number crazy, crazy town?
Yeah, I think you can get a lot of I should start looking for
more of those guys. Since I have a collection of a like crap. I
have an archive. And you do? Well not dragnet necessarily but
they're pretty accessible.
But what do you collect? And if it's not dragnet? Oh, you
know, mostly radio shows from the 40s. I'm an OTDR. Guy. Oh,
nice. All right. I have one last joke clip if you want to some
kind of funny. I have a longer clip which I can move to the
next show.
I also have the crews on Sunday crews slamming the Sierra Club
president which was
okay, I'd like to hear that. And mine. My clip, which is the
longer removed the Sunday is the most does on CBS network news.
The most sweetened report I've ever heard on any news broad.
I need to hear this. Now. I can't I can't wait till Sunday.
But it's pretty long. This is a two megabyte file. Yes, but it's
just sweetened to death. That is very Holly Williams and she's
giving this report. She's not even there. She's in Istanbul.
And this report is like no,
you know what, you know what? You're right. Save it for
Sunday, and then we will replicate the report with our
own sweetening.
Oh, so the challenge is that each of us have to do one report
with lots of sweetening. No, no, we'll do it together. And then
we'll we'll do we should do I think we should produce it.
That's what I mean. We'll produce a sweetened clip. Okay,
we'll play yours.
We'll play it on Sunday. Now why don't we play now
then what then then people can even help us with the
sweetening. Okay, you would warn the affiliates we're going late
to seize the military initiative from the United States. Russian
warships fired dozens of missiles in support of the Assad
dictatorship. Russian bombers hit rebels, some of them backed
by the United States. The US has been bombing Syria for a year
attacking the ISIS extremists, Polly Williams is covering.
Russia says it launched 26 cruise missiles today, from its
warships on the Caspian Sea. They flew over 900 miles across
Iran and Iraq, hitting parts of northern Syria, where both ISIS
and Al Qaeda linked fighters have a heavy presence. Russian
President Vladimir Putin said the high precision calibre
missiles, used for the first time reflected good preparation
and training by his country's military. But the US says
Moscow's airstrikes in Syria are also targeting moderate American
back to rebels, and that Russia's real goal in Syria is
to prop up the regime. Protected by Russian air cover, regime
troops began a ground offensive today in rebels from around
position fighters hit back in some of the most intense
fighting in several months.
But after four years of bloody civil war, Russia's air campaign
may be tipping the balance in favour of the Syrian regime.
Russia's military buildup in Syria now also includes a
battalion of ground troops, according to the US ambassador
to NATO. And Scott, that is, despite Russian assertions that
it will not use ground troops in its operations inside Syria.
And the US said those Russian troops are equipped with their
top of the line tanks and artillery. Polly Williams
reporting from Istanbul tonight, Holly Thanks.
Wow. You know,
there was not one more day when she came out of it obviously to
do live. He had but she during the report, there was not one
moment of silence.
Well, here's what they missed. They didn't have this song in
it. I think they missed a great opportunity to put the headset
on if they know that they know to do that tomorrow. I
think they missed an opportunity with a weekend use it. Yeah.
Well, we're gonna work on that for Sunday show also on Sunday
show. We do have some got some more we have we'll have tech
news, of course. There's a couple things I've been working
on. Okay. We'll do our best.
As usual. We do our best we do. As usual, as usual.
Exactly. Oh, I'm gonna go to the vape convention in Houston.
I want you get a drive down to Houston. You can take the
trailer.
No, no, I'm just gonna drive a Dexter's in town. Yeah. Dexter
is a big vape mogul now in Europe.
God. Yeah. Does he have one of those supercharged vapes?
Oh, yeah, that's, oh, yeah. He has one of those. Yeah, he has
one of the big modded ones would be great.
He's like a, like a car battery.
So I will bring back a report from the Vinca. You will in the
in the vape. The vape convention dexus is kind of a cross between
Comic Con and a porn convention. Wow, that
sounds cool. Pictures. Yeah. Tina
the keeper not thinking it's so funny. But
we'll take pictures and have her take pictures. Pictures,
pictures will be taken. And I'll put them in the newsletter. When

Dvorak. We'll be back on Sunday

Tell your fake internet girlfriend, you're
going to be AFK for about 10 minutes. Because it's
motherfucking science.
