tronics FROM emp in the upper atmosphere, and he gets a
donation for his 37th birthday, which is today September 5, and
will congratulate him later, of course, right. And she made the
mistake of sending in two donations. So she hit the button
twice. And so it came to a total of 270 $200.74. And she's Zack,
keep it from get more fun do folks. That's right. And so she
becomes an executive producer.
Great. So it works beautifully. Everyone wins. And she
wants to be deduced apparently
Oh, we can do that right now.
You've been deed deuced.
Yeah, this is a listener supported show. And of course,
just like every other real Hollywood project, as this show
does emanate from Gitmo nation West and the People's Republic
of California IEA. We hand out credits for producers and
Associate Executive for executive producers and
Associate Executive producers who actually fund the project,
which is very normal. We do have a number of PR mentions to go
through today, John, which I'd like to share with you first of
all, Sir Paul couture has a new challenge coin. Were you aware
of this because I guess I missed it or maybe he missed the
meeting. Did you have the meeting on Friday? You had a
meeting and you didn't invite me?
We decided that You weren't needed.
Story of my life. Thanks.
I took I took a page from Ron blooms book no nice.
Sir Paul has yet a new coin challenge. For those of you who
missed out on lunch coin, yeah, well, I challenge it. But it's a
it's a coin challenge with a challenge coin. Yeah, because of
course the challenge is he wants to get these out by 1010 10. It
is a 1010 10 commemorative coin. But its official title is the
Orwell quote, media assassin coin. Once again, beautiful
work. On the front there, we've got 42 Of course, 1010 10 is
binary for 42 which as you know, according to the Hitchhiker's
Guide to the Galaxy is the answer to all questions in the
universe and beyond. Beautiful, no agenda show and then of
course, an aura alien each year. Something like that, which is
Latin for him in the mouth. I think. On the flip side, it has
1010 10 media assassin and these are these are beautiful, it's
has like a black bezel, and has a quote from George Orwell on
the back that says we have now sunk to a depth that which
restatement of the obvious is the first duty of intelligent
men. There you go, John. That would be us.
Apparently.
So it's $33.33 Go to no agenda fans.com Beautiful coins once
again. And read the story about the about challenge coins and
about the first coin and about, about Paul couture and his wife
spending hours trying to sort out the serial numbers to cover
the right people. Yeah,
that was a mistake. Yeah,
I think I think he learned from that one. And of course, he is
also not just sort of awkward who are also Lord of the Rings,
apparently, but I won't know for sure. Until I see the meeting
notes.
I'll tell you what the meeting notes are. Okay. We we finalized
the rings that are being manufactured as we speak.
No agenda show.no I'm sorry, I'm, I'm confused. They're being
manufactured. Yeah, no agenda. fans.com. Right. Hey, we've got
a no agenda game app for the iPhone in the App Store, which
is, it's so good. I'm gonna put it on the big App Show. It is
hilarious.
Is it good? Yeah.
It's like kind of like a tilt game, you use the accelerometer
and you have to collect slaves. You collect the slaves, and then
and then they follow you around to enlightenment and the little
slave gathering grows behind you. And these of course,
producers, but then you have the obstacles which are mainstream
media blips pop up, and they hit you in the mouth. It's just it's
funny. It's got all our sound effects. It's an awesome gay,
it's really it's actually quite challenging. And it has the
whole the whole no agenda vibe in there. It's 99 cents. And a
pro's portion of that, I guess goes to Apple. And maybe if
we're lucky, somebody will go to us. But a link in the show notes
that no agenda showed our colander links that rock there
is a another 1010 10 promotion under no agenda Super karma.com
which is the no agenda 1010 10 Super karma 42 package
consisting of a number of pins, which are very hippie esque. And
just to remind you that we have a an interesting model for this
program. We don't take any money from commercials or advertisers
or any type of underwriting. We're listener slash producer
sponsored. And we encourage anyone to go out use all of our
logos and everything we're open source, we don't care. broadcast

sale for $42.42. So check that out. No agenda super karma.com.
Then we have here we go. This is a note sent in from one of our
younger producers. 21 years old up in Gitmo nation, great white
north. I just had to share this one with you, John. I went to my
parents for supper as they were hosting a meal for my dad's co
workers after everyone was settled. And, and talking I
opened my laptop to finish your Thursday show and as I was
playing it, you said in the morning everyone actually
stopped talking my dad asked me to shut the effing thing off.
thing. 21 Of course, I decided to keep on listening. And then
eventually three out of five of the couples got up and left
after another 10 more minutes the remaining two couples left.
My dad looked at me told me to get the hell out. He's been he's
been never been this angry at me before in all my years living
with my parents to something in the podcast is spooking them.
Oh, he says, Where do my dad and the husbands of the couples
work? Well, none other than that the see Si es which I think is
the Canadian secret intelligence services. So they were listening
to us like assassinating everything they do and they got
all pissed off and huffy is just funny. That is good. I like
that. That's great.
Get those guys off,
shut up slave shut that laptop. And then we have a naggers meet
up or there will be several naggers meet up scheduled on
1010 10. This is also in the show notes, no agenda show.com
under the links that Rocca naggers, of course stands for no
agenda, global gathering of excellent resources. And this is
a Google map. It's kinda like a meetup thing. I guess it is
meetup.com Actually, one of my sites, it takes you to a meet up
meetup.com site where you can meet up with other excellent
human resources, who listen to no agenda on 1010 10 and have a
drink and challenge each other with your coins. And I did just
want to mention briefly that the no agenda demographics study is
out July 10. Through this first week of September. Have you seen
the results? John? It's quite interesting.
No, I haven't looked down since the we looked at the first one.
Okay,
couple of highlights. 10% of the audience is female. Once all
right, yeah, once again, we are in the sweet spot of
demographics. 29 to 38 being our largest demographic, but we do
have like under 1%, who are between the age of 69 and 89.
Most suburban, most have four years of college 35%. A couple
of interesting other tidbits here. I have donated 40% Say
yes, well that's a lie. This is interesting. I started listening
to no agenda because I was following Adam curry 17% I was
following John C. Dvorak 56%. And a friend suggested at 11%
and other 15% So we're the producers are doing quite a poor
job of suggesting it to other people, as people are getting
just from some other place. And I think the the other
interesting statistic is down here at the bottom sexual
orientation, which was based on the Kinsey scale, exclusively
heterosexual 83% predominantly heterosexual only incidentally
homosexual a whopping 10% John that of course, is all the women
that's the template that's the 10% of the women. And 1% is
exclusively homosexual who listen to this program. So I
think we have a great demographic I really
really do. And yeah, but we don't need to do a great
demographic No,
it's just for us and just look at and go hey great demographic.
Yes and it also proves that you don't you know, well I think it
just it proves that are those the model our model works
well we don't really call it a model John we we actually call
it a formula and it's the most favorite jingle by the way
according to the chart our formula
is this we go out for yet people in the mouth
Alright, everybody said Was it
so again, thanks to executive producer for this episode, Sir
Paul couture Associate Executive Producers William Macy, Peter
nice ink and Jessica restorer for supporting the show. And I
believe we do have a couple nights coming up later on which
is always exciting. And there you have it.
Well, where do we begin?
Well, there's you know, I'd like how about this how about this
since we were talking about the challenge coins I saw a
commercial on television yesterday. And I went through
the trouble here of Oman a second of recording a clip. Have
you ever seen or not seen probably have you ever read the
the Roald Dahl story? slaughter of the Lamb? No, it will you
know Roald Dahl right for the fantastic writer who always has
a little weird Roald Dahl s twist at the end. It's about a
woman who kills her husband with a leg of lamb of frozen leg of
lamb. And then the cops come in and you know, she's like, oh, a
burglar did it and and she says, You know, I have a wonderful
roast here. So while you guys are investigating the crime and
you know the the crime scene, would you like some, some roast
lamb? And of course she's serving them the evidence, and
they eat the evidence so she never gets caught, which is kind
of the funny bit of the story. So I see As commercial yesterday
and I immediately think of that story about eating the evidence
and it read this whole thing really really grossed me out.
This is the USS New York built using 7.5 tonnes of steel
salvaged from the World Trade Center. Now it appears on our
officially authorized 10th anniversary September 11
commemorative featuring separate sculptures of the USS New York
and the World Trade Center towers inset with jeweler
precision on its own first entirely clad in point 999 Pure
silver actually recovered from beneath the ashes of Ground
Zero. Now watch as this historic three piece commemorative
transforms to a magnificent standing sculpture of the World
Trade Center with the USS New York sailing past the
commemorative base is clad in 14 milligrams of pure 24 karat
gold. Then the USS New York and the Twin Towers are clad in 14
milligrams of point 999 Pure silver priceless silver
recovered from ground zero this private non monetary
commemorative will never be released for circulation.
Alright, so there's another minute of that. I'm like this is
a complete outrage. They are selling the evidence. The silver
which apparently can withstand jet fuel much better than steel
can. This is news to me. The Silver was recovered from ground
zero and they melt it into into coins of the USS what are the
USS America whatever that is. The ship that was apparently
made of the steel.
Well you know what the silver they're selling is is pretty
much the the when the fire began and the people that were left in
the building their their fillings all
crumble. But this is actually I think it's the see the FBI.
Yeah, it's Department of Justice. Federal Bureau of
Investigations is selling these coins. The FBI has sanctioned
them you get A a triple the
FBI got to do is sanctioning any coinage.
It is available now through this special offer for collectors
only to mark the 10th anniversary of September 11. It
is double dated 2001 to 2011. It is limited under exclusive
license of the United States Secret Service uniform division
benefit fund which
they license hats to I'm told
they're the ones that say FBI across the
state. It really irked me looking at the early Yeah, I
mean the USS New York is what it is the ship that's made of the
steel the evidence is floating by there's the evidence there
goes yeah, we'll never know exactly how what was wrong with
that steel. Will we now know the evidence? Oh, it's the my coin
the silver? Just abhorrent is
the word abhorrent?
Totally abhorrent.
We need a jingle
so we're abhorrent? No. Maybe Jeff can do a better job. Yeah,
but so that to me, that's just like eating the evidence,
I think should be done to the tune of tomorrow. Tomorrow
abhorrent.
abhorrent? Yeah, that's a good one.
Yeah, yeah. Jeff can do that for granted. I didn't he won't be
flat. Okay,
okay.
Let's start with this. I think you want to just go right at it
with real news.
Oh, my goodness. Oh, you're calling me. Back. Okay, I think
I can handle it.
Nancy Grace. did the best job of bringing down the house with the
Paris Hilton story. Okay,
Paris Hilton busted for cocaine this weekend on the Vegas Strip.
I'm happy to be a part of that.
She was writing in her boyfriend's car. They were on
the Vegas Strip. She said yes. The cash, the credit cards, the
albuterol in the purse were hers. But not the Koch have a
lot of other projects in the works.
unleashed the lawyers joining us tonight out of LA high profile
lawyer Gloria alread. Daniel Horowitz, pain defense attorney
out of San Francisco and Carmen St. George, defense attorney
joining us out of New York. What about
we're gonna listen to four minutes of this
les minute. Okay. GLORIA way wastop Nancy Grace. I'm not
gonna say that she would be using anything herself. But she
sure sounds like she's got a cold.
Never Ends and by the way, when she originally did, she got away
with my coke. They did time it was for violation of her
probation. Kind of a similar situation to Lindsay Lohan in
that regard. Now she's charged with a felony possession of a
controlled substance.
I had a whole conversation with Mickey about this last night and
my recommendation is Paris Hilton needs to get a reality
show. If I were her manager, I say go We're all you know, this
is not the way to get in the news. You need a reality show.
This is not going to work.
No, I agree. I think she's she's screwed up on his deal. But
we're gonna listen to you. We're gonna listen to these short
little snippets from the three lawyers and then Nancy Grace
goes ballistic on Horowitz as if like, what what is the problem?
You'll see
what the problem is. I'm listening to this crap. This you
have a point, right?
It's real news. Yeah,
she's in big trouble. To you, Ellie Jo said, the judge. In
this case. What did he say about her bonding out? Well,
the issue here is that, well, she was released on her own
recognizance in this charge. But we're hearing that the judge
there does not want celebrities to think that they can come to
Las Vegas and commit any kind of illegal activity. So it's we're
hearing that there's not going to be any sort of plea bargain
with her and that because she's had probation revoked before in
the DUI case that Gloria alluded to. And she also in that case,
failed to attend some alcohol education classes. That could be
another grounds for not giving her straight probation here.
Why Daniel Horowitz?
I don't see what she's done wrong. She bothered nobody. She
was hurting nobody. Why pick on her just because she's faced
with mass not when
I asked you. Can you just try to focus? All right, put it back in
the middle of the road, Daniel.
Daniel stated the script because this is supposed to distract
people. This is supposed to get them ready for scram bracelet.
You don't have to start with your closing argument just yet.
I'm asking you about what Ellie just had just reported that last
time she was behind bars for a violation of probation. And she
did not complete her drug and alcohol classes last time, which
are considerations for the DA giving probation in this case?
Yeah, I
know. But Nullah Nancy, it's in my interest for her to have a
felony conviction and be in jail. I represent somebody who's
been charged with burglarizing her house when she takes a stand
that will help me
oh, this is the guy who's representing the millionaire
burglar kit. twats.
It turns out Do not be the case. That's what's so funny.
Oh, really. But I'm still telling you that she's just an
ordinary person in this respect. Why? Horribly because you
when presenting that guy that broke into appearance, his
house,
not the recent guy with the knives is a young kid who just
wanted to steal her clothing. And they want to give him lots
and lots of years in prison and watch so it's in my interest,
but I want to hear that. Like where's your John
told me? What is the point? What is the point?
Please? It just is vapid. No,
I can't listen to this anymore. See,
grazes is nuts. i Oh, how does this woman stay on the air?
Well, bye, bye because she's doing her job. She's bringing
this to the masses. People think this is important. This is prime
time.
She's smart. She asked a question that she says she
doesn't want to hear the answer. This is ridiculous. This is what
it's all about. That's all you like this? This is Paris Hilton
story. I mean, we need a distraction. The Paris Hilton
story is what it's all about.
Let's make a prediction. Paris Hilton gets it the case gets
thrown out. ISIS Vegas.
No. I think scram bracelet I'm going for Gitmo jewelry. My
prediction is a new version of Gitmo jewelry that detects coke.
Okay.
That's like yeah, it must be something like that.
Okay, you're gonna predict jewelry. And I'm gonna predict,
thrown out. I'm writing I'm now writing down the predictions
because we do so many. Oh,
yeah. Once you put that right next to your book.
Right here, right next to the book. Where's the book? Oh, man,
that book is gone.
Hey, the missing foots meme is. Continues. Yeah, I
noticed that we also got some notes about it.
Yeah, well, the notes I got is one we have. So we had these
missing foots showing up in Gitmo nation Northwest right
near coincidence, coincidentally near the DeVore at compound
where you're writing your manifesto. So in Brighton burnt
body found on golf course near Brighton. With one foot missing
below the shin and in Gitmo nation lowlands disclose the
way we do we have any sort of wet with the date with the deal.
Was it this bird bite because this sounds to me, like
spontaneous human combustion. This
is true, but then do you think like a dog just made off with a
foot?
I don't know. Maybe the foot blew off
the Gitmo nation lowlands a dogs interestingly enough, found a
foot Yeah, right near a harbor. And the cops are now
investigating the water with sonar seems to find the shoe. So
there's something with this foot with these individual foot
showing up. It's it's a worldwide meme and I think we
need to keep our eye I honor John because there's something
is afoot.
There will be another wash up in the Vancouver air or I'm sorry,
the Victoria Canada area. I'm probably within the next three
or four months and we'll we'll report it
go Who knows? I mean, it could it could literally be anywhere
in the world and our our show definitely.
Well, you know, this could be, you know, that's the one thing
that's interesting. It's possible that this foot thing is
happening in more than one place, but it's only being
reported locally.
Exactly. Well, of course, because it's just a foot right?
It's like no big deal but when you put it all together, which
we can do on a show like this, it becomes interesting because
then it's like hey, wait a minute. People are getting their
foot cut off for some reason yeah, yeah, it's got to be that
has to be a reason behind it. It's just too weird. No mention
of whether there was a a tennis shoe or other form of sports
shoe attached to the foot in in the lowlands and I get my East
cuz they don't know how to report on it yet. They haven't
quite tracked it that it's all about the sport shoes. Big Man,
this would almost fall under. This would almost fall under
trains good planes bad but it doesn't quite Miami
International Airport shut down on what was that? Friday or
Saturday? I think the night on Friday to Saturday for seven
hours. Because and when you hear the report is quite disturbing
because it's clearly just to get us all freaked out and afraid of
a bioterror attack this being National Preparedness Month
screeners spotted a canister inside the luggage of a
scientist that eventually turned out to be a legitimate
experiment. This scientist who's 70 years old one spent time in
prison prison nearly a decade ago for illegally shipping vials
of deadly bubonic plague bacteria. Which of course, as a
scientist does, but now listen to the report and I'll tell you
what really bothers me about this. Here's the
most units in the morning.
Airport is open. That is the good news, but it was closed for
about eight hours starting about 9pm last night. What happened
was the screeners in the customs area found a suspicious package
with according to airport authorities, multiple items that
look suspicious in that package. Immediately the airport was
evacuated about 100 passengers. It was a look slow period that
time of night at the airport so very few flights impacted. But
for concourses were closed down, and flights that did come in had
to be diverted to a couple of the open concourses. Now, as you
mentioned, one man was detained now, a source has told CNN that
the man is an American and that he has a history of criminal
prosecutions and incarcerations. And that is what ramped up
concern by local and federal authorities here we believe and
we know the man was taken into custody we do not know if he
remains in custody at this point. We do know that the bomb
squad has cleared the situation it was not a threat at as far as
we know. So again the airport is open but there were about eight
tenths hours here where the airport was for virtually shut
down
okay so here here's the way it's reported is reported as a
possible pipe bomb this is also in this CNN written report. And
I'm thinking okay, so customs officials catch a guy with
something that looks like a pipe bomb in his suitcase. What
happened that airport security on the other end before the guy
left when he put his bag on the plane? They don't screen these I
mean you know we when you fly internationally at LAX I got to
stand there and wait for an hour or some jabroni TSA jerk off one
by one painstakingly takes my yo yo to get the check in and put
your luggage on the belt now you've got to take your luggage
to the big scanner and then not scanning the luggage anymore no
no he find they find it at at customs and then it's like oh
it's bubonic plague Whoa, you could have blown into bids and
we'd all die of bubonic plague. This is a setup total setup to
get us all worried about biological warfare how easy it
is for someone to blow us all up or blow up some bubonic plague
and kill us all.
Either that or just oh not incompetence
No, no, no there's not a single cop is on camera anywhere
talking. Not a single airport official. That's bull crap. This
is a setup. It's National Preparedness Month you watch you
watch this will expand. This will expand into oh well. You
know what? This is so easy for a terrorist to detonate a bubonic
plague bite bomb. Just watch.
Hold on a second. I want to write this one down.
You're writing it down now.
Ionic, a prediction.
So I was trying to find a clip and I can't find that anywhere.
But it's all over the news. Why? Well, not CNN, of course, but
the all over the news wires. So they had this handover of a day
change from operation. Iraqi Freedom to Operation New Dawn.
Yeah. And so Vice President Biden was there. Secretary of
Defense Robert Gates was there. And at Victory base, I might
add, how lame are we as Americans were at Victory base
here in Baghdad victory base compound. And he said to
reporters, the following quote, which I cannot find anywhere he
didn't I looked at C span at the C span. Robert Gates, okay. He
says, The problem with this war for many Americans is that the
premise on which we justified going to war proved not to be
valid, he said before a ceremony in Baghdad, even if the outcome
is a good one, from the standpoint in the United States,
it will always be clouded as to how it began. I can't find this
quote anywhere, anywhere. And by the way, the C span video
archives has a huge robots dot txt file doesn't get it doesn't
get indexed by anybody. Something else I don't
understand. You know, the transcripts that they have,
they've got trains, who's who's what site sees the C span? Video
Library.
The C span video library has had robots. Yeah, yeah. Yeah.
Yeah. Huge one.
Well, that's a good find.
Well, I was irritated because I'm like, How
come? Why wouldn't you let the robots do their thing? Here it
is
disallowed to Yoma Giga bots scrubby Robo Zilla nudge is
archiver Beyblades bade upside or Yahoo, mm crawler, I mean,
everything. Everything is being being denied. I mean, isn't that
exactly the point of having transcripts so that he can be
indexed or is it just to read?
Hmm, interesting. Yeah.
Anyway, so there you go. The war was not valid, according to the
guy who was part of the administration that declared it
resigned right now. He was he was a part of the Bush
administration. Oh, it wasn't valid.
Yeah, but he wasn't he wasn't Rumsfeld
did but he was in there he was in the administration. Well, I
didn't I have a clip for you. What you got for me it's the
clip Gates is the best. And we're not talking about Bill.
Right I want to mention who the where's my little shot here it
is. This is a C span book writer or book comment they have a guy
interviewing him some Lawrence C span to Wilkerson's a some
colonels that interviewing David Kilcullen who's apparently a
consultant to the Pentagon and everybody in between and just
came out and is a book writer and his latest book counter
insurgency is out and he spent a long time which were very
interesting stuff this is a very long clip you don't have to play
the beginning you can stop it whenever you want when he goes
into gates which is right off the bat but you can go back to
it later in the show if we get bored because it's actually got
a lot of interesting intelligence stuff in it okay
here we go
and know how the budget is volatile and goes up and down
and knows the Congressman so for knows the military industrial
complex Lockheed Martin Grumman all the guys that make F 20 twos
and things that don't fit into this scenario we don't believe
there's enough coin there to do both to be able to maintain the
fighting force that would go against a some ungodly coalition
of China whatever in the future over water and oil and
water so no, I was on the way to the pause button water and oil
Wow. And but is this Afghanistan?
It's kind of a general kind of discussion is about whether or
not we need to do any of this counterinsurgency fighting at
all we should just in fact, it was suggested by the author when
it was something I've always thought about is that you do
what we did with Afghanistan after 911 which is bomb the crap
bottom and the idea would be just bombed the crap out of them
killed everybody a can that's that's part of the regime and
then get out of there. And then if they come back, go back and
kill me do it do the same thing and you don't don't send troops
out with it.
Yeah, that's a fine plan, John, let's just go bomb everybody.
Anyway, Scrum No, Screw him just bombed them.
Anyway, he was good. He goes on with his gates thing. Put keep
playing struck by
what you said. Then don't do it. Don't do the smaller stuff. I
mean, you can't do it well, and you don't need to be doing
Wouldn't don't do it. How what do you think about a decision
like that? Let's I think it's been made at the highest levels
in this government?
Well, let me just I don't know this, the Secretary of Defense
doesn't ever watch C span. No.
You know why he's listened to our show. So he doesn't have to.
I'm not gonna watch the span of jerk offs had no agenda will
tell me what to watch. You're still employed?
Well, I'm not. I'm not I don't work for the government. But
listen, I just want to tell you, I may not get a lot of
screaming. But I think that Secretary Gates is the best
Secretary of Defense that the United States ever had. And I
mean, I am a student of history,
and I know their motivation. I love
it when that's a great one. We should use that a lot more often
ourselves. I'm a student of history, John. I should know.
It's like it validates immediately. Doesn't that I
should know, because I'm a student of history. And you have
to say with that accent, you know, I'm telling you, it's a
we're gonna have a bioterror attack warning. Because I'm a
student of history. I know this, you can write it down.
I do not think we've ever seen his like, he's basically non
partisan. He's patient who committed the darkest hour of
Iraq to help out and he's a guy who's just been very
busy sending over blankets I was helping out.
And very effective in making that whole big bureaucracy work
and produce stuff for the warfighter, and also follow the
direction of now to two presidents with very different
views.
And he's doing a Marcel tried to do and failed. Russell tried to
take on the lockige, the Raytheon's, who were not only
building products that had cost overruns, that Ron tried
to take them on. Who is this guy? Rochelle didn't try to take
on every anybody. Wow. lievable
the bad products, right. And there's only one way to take
that model. If on, you're going to take him on indirectly. So
he's doing that.
So no. So I think he's just an awesome Secretary of Defense. I
think Admiral Mullen is just a phenomenal Chairman as well,
because I'm a student of history, and what those guys
have been talking about, and I would also add Michele Flournoy,
to that mix, who's that? Oh, Michelle, was the senior woman
ever in the Department of Defense? And
so just something interesting to chat rooms? Shall fluoride is
that her name? Yeah, the best part of waking up as Michelle
fluoride in my cup. The chat room has got has got onto the
robots dot txt file from C span. Here's something interesting. C
span is blocking everything except Google. But when I
searched in Google, I have Have you ever seen a C span Video
Transcript pop up as a result?
No, there must be something going on. You could get Have you
tried a site search those site colon C? span.com?
No, I'm sure the champion will try it out. Let's see to see if
they can find it. Yeah, go for it. MSN is allowed, but it's
delayed. They get a delay. So Google gets priority over
indexing. But Google never shows me any. I don't search for
anything else and ever show me anything. So peculiar. Well,
doesn't surprise me. Really. Should we listen to more of
this? Due to history?
Yes. Well, a little bit. Okay. The leadership
team is just really solid. Those guys have been talking about
rebalancing as the term they're using, saying, We have to
rebalance in two different dimensions. One we've got to
rebalance between the wars are fighting now. And the future
wars we might be called upon to fight so present versus future
needs to be rebalanced.
I can't listen to it. Fucking. I actually, I, I've learned
something very important about Afghanistan. And once again, I'm
not going to do it yet, but it does fall under the under the
heading. Anonymous writes us, the wind to send you a story for
months, but I've been reluctant to do so since I don't have any
documentation to back it up. But I have some information from a
civilian working for the US Army Corps of Engineers. The US Army
is building a brand new railroad in this in what this person
calls a mountainous foreign country. He said he couldn't say
where it is. But I could probably guess what was most
interesting, he said this was going to be a for profit
railroad operation. It would be from the court the border of the
country into the interior of the country. And of course, this is
very interesting that the US armed forces are building a for
profit railway. So then you go do a little Google search.
Afghanistan to build 200 kilometer railway This is from
the eighth of July. Officials in the Ministry of Public Works say
they have started the technical studies of a 200 kilometer long
railway connecting Afghanistan with Pakistan. Next one,
Afghanistan finally gets its first railroad is from June
Fourth. construction has begun on the first real railroad in
Afghanistan's history. A 50 mile link from neighboring Uzbekistan
to the northern Afghan city of Mazar e Sharif should be
finished by September. And then just more just a whole bunch of
these, including Kenneth L. Bird. Who is from Canada.
Where's he from? Where's this a Daliah? That Canadia?
I don't know. I'll look it up.
Anyone who has seen the videos and photos coming from
Afghanistan over the past nine years will no doubt feel that
bringing that country from its current 14th century. Okay, from
its current 14th century status into the 21st century is an
impossible goal. Culturally, the country is a collection of
ancient tribes loosely wedded by the traditions of fundamental
Islam. This is a whole story about how we need to build a
railroad and what is going on?
Why are we believed obviously need to move something from
point A to point B? I
think gemstones isn't isn't that it gold gemstones. There's got
to be something in them hills. It because I'm sure it's moving
it out and not in?
Oh, yes. Moving it.
Definitely. Definitely moving it out. But we're building that.
Yeah, unofficial report uncorroborated, but we have lots
of servicemen and women, women listening. So if you know about
it, let us know. I
just thought that that's what we just what our army does now.
Yeah, we we build stuff
for other people and protect poppies. We can ship stuff out.
It's just amazing to me.
Maybe it's forever. Maybe the heroin business is so big now
that they need to train. To get it out of there.
The President was propagating the train meme in the in his
presidential address, which by the way, he's back on the chroma
key, John, he's, I guess he couldn't make it to the White
House. He had to do it in the studio. And that's really funny
because his right ear is shiny, and the background starts to get
keyed on his ear. A little annoying. And then on the close
ups, his right eye looks like it looks like it's bloodshot, it's
not doesn't take that much work to get that right. Apparently
they can't get it right.
Long before this recession. The values of hard work and
responsibility that built this country had been given short
distances, Labor Day speech decade, middle class families
felt the sting of stagnant incomes and declining economic
security. Companies were rewarded with tax breaks for
creating jobs overseas. Is that
true? Did we get tax breaks? Were companies rewarded for
doing that? Yeah. Okay.
Wall Street firms turned huge profits by taking in some cases
reckless risks, and cutting corners. All of this came at the
expense of working Americans who were fighting harder and harder
just to stay afloat, often borrowing against inflated home
values to pay their bills. Ultimately, that house of cards
collapsed. So this Labor Day, we should recommit ourselves to our
time honored values, and to this fundamental truth. To heal our
economy. We need more than a healthy stock market. We need
bustling main streets and a growing thriving middle class.
That's why I'll keep working day by day, to restore opportunity,
you're gonna do economic security, and that basic
American green score to families and future generations, you
know, he's what he's gonna do first, that means doing
everything we can to accelerate job creation. Yes, job. The
steps we've taken to date have stopped the bleeding. Oh,
investments and
let me look at my arse. No, I'm still bleeding out of it.
You're wrong roads and bridges and high speed railroads that
will lead to hundreds of 1000s of jobs in the private sector.
Hundreds of 1000s of jobs it's amazing jobs,
jobs, jobs and jobs. That's no for jobs.
Hundreds of 1000s of jobs by building high speed rail, Rod
rocks, it totally rocks.
You know, I was looking at the train going past the the tracks
down to the bottom of the hill. And you know one thing I thought
about this for a while but then I've decided that maybe I'm not
thinking about it right by the train going by now. So the
Burlington Northern Santa Fe the BNS F which is the
boss of Warren Buffett just purchased that this year, most
of it.
I've always remembered the old Santa Fe's, and they used to
show the things there's Chrome and beautiful, it looks shiny
and they were painted and they're gorgeous. We go down to
the railroad track just to watch it go by. And these things these
engines that BNSF have look like they just they look like they've
never been washed. They're rusty. They look like crap. And
I'm thinking this this operation has no pride. They have no pride
whatsoever. I'm always reminded of the two when I worked in the
oil refinery game. Union oil had has this refinery over and
roadeo which has got the not so denied it's owned by different
basically they sold to some kind glommer is different company
now. But dead in those days, they were very proud of their
refinery and they paint everything. And they used to
paint the oil tanks, different colors are pink and blue,
they're all pastels was very weird to drive past them on the
freeway and Standard Oil over here in Richmond, had let the
they just let their tanks rust. They didn't paint them ever. And
they were and I talked to the refinery guys about this. And
one of them said, Well, they did a calculation. It turns out that
if you always maintain the tanks and paint them, it costs x
amount of money over X amount of time. And if you don't paint
them, you just let them run and you have to rebuild them over
and over again, it turns out to be a wash in terms of what it
costs you. So one company decided to just a hell with it.
You know, we don't you know, we just let it rust and they but
they didn't but it didn't show any pride. And they came up with
this very unique solution. Standard Oil instead of putting
up a new tank painted white, they put up a new tank and
painted it rust colored. Which was genius. Anyway, so but so I
always assumed that there was some lack of pride with BNSF but
now that this high speed rail thing is going on, here's what
I'm now thinking. They don't they're not gonna bother,
they're gonna let these things rust away because they don't
care because once high speed rail is in they gotta get the
new ones like those engines. Yep, they yep, yep, those new
slick fast engines and they're gonna get them all and they're
gonna be looking good and they're going to be using those
high speed tracks to move freight and there'll be a
sponsored by our tax dollars yep the whole thing will be paid for
by the US government makes a lot of sense makes
a lot of sense. I actually I had a I think I had a note here
about that I guess I can't find it in the actual detail that
they want double deckers. So the specs for the United States High
Speed Rail Trail why? Well because you need to be able to
transport coffins.
Because the new cargo containers this new ship containers they
get they they stack them on top of another and they want them to
be as tall as possible. So if they build for double decker
passenger then you can also be big enough to carry the freight
right
you can do too. You can do full sheet as see containers. Yeah.
Oh, right. Make sense? Hey, I figured it out. I figured out
the Paris Hilton thing. It just took me a moment to connect the
dots. I got it. When was she arrested on this charge just at
the very end of last month. Now whitehouse.gov August 31 2010.
Each day brings new opportunities for personal
growth, renewal and transformation to millions of
Americans who have chosen to forge a path towards recovery
from addiction to drugs or alcohol, blah, blah, blah, blah,
blah. Therefore I Barack Obama president the United States of
America by virtue of the authority vested in me by the
Constitution, blah, blah, blah, do hereby do proclaim September
2010 as National Alcohol and Drug Addiction Recovery Month.
There it is. We needed to make people aware and better of the
Gitmo jewelry. This is the time me you can't deny the timing of
it. No, it's perfect. Get it into the public with with Paris
Hilton, get her with some some some coke charge. And then
prepare everyone for the bracelets. Perfect. Perfect,
Tiny.
Well, that's depressing.
No, it's not. It's just nice to know these things. This is what
we do. Our job is to help people understand the propaganda that
passes for news. That's all it's not that hard.
I gotta before we go to our thank yous, I do have a
propaganda piece that I want you to I want everyone to mull over
for a while. This was a P as soon as I saw this pieces, this
is bull crap. It's a human interest story that was
obviously packaged by somebody because and it's not even well
done. The packager you know, which is like a video press
release. Has the guy doing the voice is he can barely he's not
even professional in his in his in his presentation. But the
package ran on the local news, KPI X. And it's about a little
boy, who, who came up with this great idea to help the soldiers.
And
by buying a pack of coffee, Pete's,
essentially by putting together snack packs. And the whole thing
is just so much bullcrap that you know, I mean, to make anyone
think that this could actually have occurred, I said, so some
little boy went to his mom says, Mom, I want to send every
soldier in Afghanistan a snack pack. Oh, wow. Let me call the
let me call the newspaper we can make a big deal. You know, this
whole thing is some sort of a setup but I'm not absolutely
sure what unless it's just to promote the name snack pack,
which I think is is a trademark of some crafters or one of these
food companies. But the whole thing is I'd like people to mull
this one over and it but it's such a definite piece of human
interest propaganda. I don't even think it's that well done,
but it is pretty funny.
Finally, so Night at community wide effort underway in
Sacramento to say thank you to our troops. The idea to send
snack packs to give them a taste of home, the brain behind the
effort. A kid named Jack Allen Sanchez introduces us to this
very thoughtful little boy.
A few dozen people came out to the Waterloo restaurant today to
help out seven year old Jack with his cause to send troops
overseas, some snack packs.
Nick Chu had them have a little taste from home.
Jack's passion for the snack packs for the troops is
contagious or
wait a minute. I'm sorry, it's a snack pack website. So wait a
minute. Did you hear what this kid said? Yeah, they gave him a
taste from home. Right? Right. He's he poor kid, they forced
the script into his brain. Why?
Here's the other thing this this this package has done so poorly,
that the Sanchez whoever this guy is doing the voiceover and
doing the report, he's over modulated is like distorted.
From Home,
Jack's passion for the snack packs for the troops is
contagious organizes are overwhelmed with support.
I just think it's amazing. The support that people continuously
give, you know, knowing that, you know there are men and women
over their mothers and fathers, sisters and brothers that are
over there every day.
There's a lot of items in the jack snack pack. There's
cookies, there's hand sanitizers, there's peanuts,
there's gum, but it's a message that they're really trying to
send over to troops. That's most important
thing know that the people back home are thinking about them and
that we care about them and that we know that they're over there
and that they're not forgotten.
One thank you letter that Jack receives says it all.
Like the ones that when I gave my troops their snack packs, the
eyes lit up like it was Christmas
with the community says it plans on more snack drives in the
future.
Yeah, you know why he's over modulated? Because this is
indeed one of those PR packages that's produced they send that
out and they have their local guide to the voiceover. And of
course you know, they're so you they're not so not used to
actually producing anything that they couldn't get the levels
right. Let's see snack pack news and promotions. Let's see if
they've got it. Sorry. Not currently running any
promotions. Interesting.
So there's something up with this
snack pack website.
A lot of racket
does. It's clearly not the right one. I'm now I'm curious about
this.
Yeah, I am too because it was just out of the blue. It was a
bogus story and anyone could I think anybody listens to this
show more than two or three times can spot these things now.
And it will end as human interest and it's in its in its
field. That's a field good story. Because the little kids
involved. Oh, yeah, it was cute, by the way of course. And
but here Oh, hold on. Here it is. Jack snack packs. Wait a
minute. Oh, because his name is Jack. Oh, he's the guy wearing a
little uniform now. Oh, I didn't see this. And he's saluting. Oh
my god.
This is to get the kids used to being in the military,
right. Here's the link for you. Oh my goodness. This is
horrendous. Let's see. Jack snack. Pylos he starts singing
to his cousin. Oh, okay, got gum. Slim Jims? microwave
popcorn Gatorade. And
nice in here. He's from Modesto and the other story. He was from
Sacramento. Yeah, by the way, because
I guarantee you I guarantee you John, I guarantee you if our
producers will keep their eyes peeled, you'll find like a young
Pennsylvania young Pennsylvania Pennsylvania boy decided to put
together snack packs you watch every they're gonna have a
different kid and all these different companies in every
different state with a snack
pack. Yeah, now see, they had a big big meeting outside the Save
Mart in Modesto. He's got a Facebook page. I can assure you
that Modesto is not a is not walking distance from
Sacramento. Let's see. And he's always apparently did a
fundraiser it 14th And Isidore and Mantega
kids on a tour to kids on a tour he's gonna have a T shirt
doesn't have to go to school.
Well in about a week. We obviously
support our servicemen and women on their misguided mission. But
holy moly this is just sick. Alan Sanchez Good day Sacramento
we'll be broadcasting
how the kids wearing camo Yeah, kids report done out of this
other station. Yeah, this is this is just as this is bogus,
snap something behind me. There's gotta be some more
bigger payoff than just, you know, feel good story. This guy
that'd be somebody's benefiting
Well, slim, Slim Jims and Gatorade and GM.
Slim Jims. Slim Jims and microwave popcorn. That's good
for you.
Nice, nice and healthy. I wonder that maybe it's one company that
makes it. Who knows? Well, we'll see. So an article that was
emailed to us a lot as we kind of get into our donations here.
I know urge you to no end about the possibility of Howard Stern
going on the internet. And I would just like to say something
here. I think that if he does that, and the you know, he's
kind of taking an idea that I put into his ear, although I'm
sure it wasn't exclusively me. Because I, in fact, I didn't say
do subscriptions on the internet. I didn't say that. I
said, I think that you could you could do it. I think that if he
moved to the internet and decides to charge for
subscriptions, it will fail. And here's why. And this is
something very interesting that I kind of an epiphany I had
after reading. I finished this book yesterday called fortunes
fool, which I think I've talked about on the show before it's
about Edgar Bronfman Jr, the heir to the sea groom's fortune,
who basically sold off all the booze and, and bought into the
music, business, and entertained business, but primarily the
music business. And so the story, which is it has a million
footnotes is really it's really well researched. I think the
numbers are pretty, pretty accurate, as accurate as they
can ever be in the music industry. But you see that
essentially, the music industry is just gone, it's dead. There's
no more albums being sold. And then it hit me last night. It's
like, people are willing, if you give a piece of plastic around,
discuss someone and say, Hey, this is 40 bucks. You know, it's
something people can hold in their hands. And they go like,
yeah, okay, yeah, that's 40 bucks, I get it. That's worth
it. If you give someone a Monet, which was facing, it's just like
some mud on canvas and say it's a million dollars and someone
holds it in his hands. Wow, that's a million dollars. You
give someone $100 Bill, which is nothing more than a piece of
paper with a number printed on it and a signature. And people
can hold it in their hands like Yeah, it's like valuable. But
when you distribute it through the internet, it has no value.
People don't assign a value to it. This is like apps, I see
millionaires looking at the at the App Store going, Oh, man
$1.99 for that app, that's kind of expensive. I don't think I
want to spend that much money on an app. So it's, it's anything
that is true, I kid you
choose funny? Well, most people, they don't even spend a nickel
for an app, they want them off, they want all
free because it has no inherent value. So the only way to create
value online is what what we're doing, make sure it belongs to
everybody. Everybody does something to support it. One of
the ways, of course, is Paul couture, who actually sends out
something physical, I mean, is this coin really worth $33.33?
No, it's what is it? Is it made of nickel, I don't know what it
is. In fact, you can get the silver from the from the Twin
Towers cheaper. But it has a value and you're holding it in
your hand. And then we're delivering an experience, which
is very valuable to people. And you can use it has been around
for a million years. But the ability to understand media to
have your eyes open to be able to assassinate what is happening
to enrich your life. That is something of value that we are
transferring through the unit. It's the only way to do it. But
if you start charging people for it by subscription, and trying
to lock down the distribution, it just doesn't work. Now, it's
not working that great for us yet. But I think we're onto
something. Because
the right idea and I think the open source thing is a positive
in this regard. I think we because people I mean, we don't
have you know, if somebody just took a look at the no agenda
system out of the blue, just from scratch and they saw all
the web sites that that support the show and it could tours
operation. And and and all the other people that have you know,
they've Couture's listed a lot of these sites. But it looks
like we're these sites, even though there's no common look or
look and feel to them at all, not at all. But couture, by the
way, who does this kind of design work might actually force
people to use a, you know, Common Look, at least for some
of the stuff but it's not even important. The fact of the
matter is, it looks like a big operation and in fact it is but
it's all volunteerism. Yep. And, and kind of, you know, reverse
support and instead of us paying for somebody to put up a
website, they put up a website and pay us Yeah. Which is
because we don't have any other means of support and we're
essentially it's kind of it's it's almost like like in you
know, you have it's do a what's it called when the when a when
plants and fungus live together something I can't remember their
symbiotic tasty. So we have a symbiotic relationship with our
listeners. And that's one of the reasons that we do ask for their
support and we do call you know, give credit where the students
name a few people that gave us some money this week including
John Schneider Sir John Schneider as a matter of fact
that a Chicago $92 jugglin Janssen from says feet to fit o
u which is actually a wine growing area. It says feet to NY
France, so I guess it's Gitmo nation stinky

I think so must be but that's very nice that wine has really
bad is a really good wine to have very inexpensive tasty BBQ

Double nickels on the dime. She says she has a birthday to get
to that in a minute in a minute. She also wants to do a give me a
donation payback for the karma for my last donation. I recently
left my good job paying with a horrible commute for a lower
paying job that allows me to work from home. So even though
the money will be tight, only my husband will continue the brutal
three hours a day commute Wow, three hours, this is to the
show. Three hours a day.
Well think about it. We deliver three hours of daily source code
a week. So that's one day. And we deliver four hours of no
agenda. So that's two, he could probably stretch it out, you
know, so we're probably helping him through three days of the
week. But only one way, only one way.
That's a long commute. That sucks. I mean, we essentially do
four hours a week and we assume that people probably commute
about four hours total. Because our show is pretty much designed
for people who are stuck in their cars. If that we have
people that have complained, because they get now have a
shorter commute. They can't listen to the whole show. Which,
by the way, John, I'd love to hear more about your decision to
home school. I used to be completely opposed to it, but my
feelings in the matter of changing. Maybe you can talk
more about the next time you guys do a special edition type
show. Thanks for all you do. So we don't have to. It's Vivian

And in fact, even our listeners, we probably have more listeners
in Germany than we do in England. We just don't get a lot
of support there in India of course is that is the other
worst case scenario. They all speak English, but nobody cares

Chef Falls Creek, Pennsylvania $50. You guys are amazing. She's
saying I've only been listening to your show for a few weeks now
is completely worth donating money to keep up the good work.
And I look forward to tuning into your show in the future.
Thank you value for value. Nice. And then we had a number of
$22 $42.10 1010 donations we don't we'll put them in a list
of entry but we do have a couple of birthdays that are in there.
I don't know if you get the updated spreadsheet. If not,
there's two that you have to add to the birthday thing I can do
when we started the birthday.
You can do those I got a couple others here on the list. And
that wraps it up. Really? Okay. Let me just see if I had before
we get to the birthdays, crackpot and buzzkill says Brad

we're getting ready since I've been listening to no agenda.
I've started paying attention to the advertisers on NPR here and
he's he's got to write the advertisers. Friday I heard that
our EI is an advertiser Of course, Aria He makes a fine
outdoor camping gear. Not but five minutes later, there was a
story on camping gear. I'm donating because I get better
information from us guys. I put a link to the story below but I
can't seem to find a list of corporate advertisers for NPR.
No, you will never find it under advertisers. It's called
underwriters is the term you're looking for. Okay, let's hit

There's all kinds of ways you can come up with some money for
or do do a snack pack drive for the show to do anything, just
trash
so I think I found the don't look over here. Look over there
moment. Everyone emailed the Pentagon declined to investigate
hundreds of purchases of child pornography. So everyone emailed
this story, like oh, these bastards. And essentially what
the different Department of Defense said at the Pentagon is,
we just didn't have enough resources, literally human
resources to investigate the What is it 264 individuals who
are downloading porn now first of all, I'm not against porn.
And this there is no mention of child pornography that I can
see. And I think porn at the workplace can be quite healthy.
In certain cases. I do not advocate that because you may
have different rules at your workplace. But I believe this is
a cover up John, then this is no no coincidence that this is now
all of a sudden this Freedom of Information Act is out there.
Oh, now we know oh, those bastards. They're downloading
porn on our dime on our time. Porn porn porn. Because what has
happened in Gitmo nation cork, known as Portugal? This is the
real news that you don't have. And of course, I only received
one link to this story. Six year trial, Portugal's high society
pedophile ring rolled up. Did you know about this?
Nope. I didn't read anything about it.
So this was a pedophile ring, which included a former
ambassador, a prominent television celebrity 1000s of
orphans, who were literally used in this orphanage as a shop. A
shop I tell you, for these pedophiles to go and shop for
kids finally convicted or at least found guilty they have not
been convicted yet. But there were 1000s and 1000s of pages of
testimony. I think it was what's the total number here I believe
it was 800 witnesses and experts gave evidence 4500 people since
1998 through 2003. Involved 639 crimes confessed confessed by
one of these pedophiles, let me just give you that number again.
639 crimes confess by just one. And so it finally came to a
halt. But of course this is just the tip of the iceberg. And And
again, there it is. It's show business. Its business, its
government and its Portugal. What else do we have in
Portugal? A couple of years back, John, which I'm sure we'll
come back on the radar. Port Madeline Madeline McCann.
Remember little Maddie?
No, I don't. Yeah, this
is the British girl who went missing. Oh, right. Dude, this
is a hotbed Portugal yet drugs may be legal but oh man. So
here's the AP report seven people convicted of child sex
abuse and Portugal on Friday. Major trial lasted nearly six
years shocked the country. The six men and one woman were found
guilty of crimes including sexually abusing minors and
adolescents raping children running a pedophile ring at a
state run a children's hospital in Lisbon during the 90s in the
early 2000s. The woman whose house was used by the ring was
not given a custodial sentence because of a 2007 change in the
law. No mention what the change is. But of course, since the law
is involved, and this also includes the 53 year old former
driver of the children's home Carlos Salvino, who confessed to
those more than 600 crimes and gave evidence against other
defendants. I guarantee you that this is just the tip of the
iceberg. And this news which came out yesterday, or the day
before yesterday, is meant to be covered up by this pentagon
story because of course, we have pedophiles all over the justice
system and in the highest levels of government and the other
hotbed is Gitmo nation lowlands. So pedo bear still rules but a
small minor victory although it's going to be covered up
died. You know, I haven't heard about this one on the news
anywhere. Have you, John.
Now they don't cover anything like that. No, the big news is
that you can't get a hooker on Craigslist anymore.
This is the most ridiculous story ever. It's like it makes
no sense.
Not only that, but it's an inconvenience. This is I'm going
to probably do a column for PC magazine on this an
inconvenience. It's an inconvenience. This is why I
promoted the idea for years, at least since the early days of
the Internet of getting a dot x x x domain name. And I think
that's why the red light districts exist. You want to
push the hook or there's going to be hookers. Oh yeah, it's
illegal to hook or should be overwhelmed hookers go they
should be you know, in a room in Oakville and you take them you
close hooker Ville, and they start gravitating all over the
place. So now you'll be looking up buying a used refrigerator
and you're gonna get some hooker that's going to have an add
yellow refrigerator. And by the way, what do you roses? You can
you know, no, no,
no, no, this is what the ad will be. It's over here. Get your hot
pockets, everybody.
So you're gonna be all over the place they should have lifted.
Do you know about these
40 Roses? This is this is true. This is what hookers use. Yeah,
40 Roses. By the way. Give me the address of the 40 Roses.
That's cheap.
So anyway, the hookers have been pushed into the now there's
gonna be floating around in the mainstream part of the website.
You know where you can look it up for cars. It's gonna impact
kids. Children think of the children's Yeah, and I don't
know. Yeah, no,
you're absolutely right. And of course, there's still plenty of
hookers available on Twitter. Oh, really? Yeah. Well, what
Twitter does they have these?
What's the hash code?
If you if you search for I think arrows er O 's, you can
subscribe to a feed and this feed essentially, whenever one
of these hooker websites updates, which is you know, just
escort websites. Then you get the latest for postings in your
Twitter feed. Then they got pictures and everything went
really? Yeah. Oh, yeah.
Who knew? Ladies and gentlemen, everybody learned something from
this show. Now you I know we have a lot of men listeners. You
learned something very valuable. They're divorced.org/in A
challenge of oracle.com/na. And
we should start asking if we should start talking about our
donations in roses. Thank you for the double roses on the on
the bud. There we should get a maybe that's the way to do it.
So do you want to go to the big news store? It seems like just
sent you a bunch of links. I hate to be the one to bring it
up.
Well, let me take a look because i There are a couple of big
news.
This is the big one from GE Yeah, let's
do this one. This is good. Go ahead because it's your story
residence phone 909 4999 dozens of times over ghosts and UFO
worries. Apparently there's been an invasion of UFOs around the
world, I think is mass hysteria of course, but whatever. And,
and the one let me just read from the this is from the
telegraph.c.co.uk. The Telegraph newspaper worried residents
phone 999 report citing of ghosts and UFOs including a man
who claimed to have seen the spirit of actor Paul Newman.
Yeah, man, that should have been funny. That's true.
Officers say one emergency call came from a man who rang police
claiming to have seen the ghosts of two old ladies in a white
Fiesta on a dual carriageway. Other worried calls came from
people who spotted ghosts or poltergeist on CCTV cameras and
another said he's seen a ghost which could make me a million
quid. Dozens more calls coming in. And their story after story.
They're all over the place. And apparently BC Canada is another
place where a bunch of these sightings occurred all at once.
Well, I'm looking
at this UFO over Shrewsbury. Oh well, we have some video here,
John. It's a bulletin.
Hello, welcome to today's news bulletin from the Shropshire
stars headquarters here at Catalina Telford. Thank you for
joining us. My name is Andy Richardson and our lead story
tonight. Shropshire star video journalist James shore had a
shock when he spotted a UFO. James saw strange lights above
the streets of Shrewsbury and seen he'd been returning from
stroke returns clashed with Coventry City when he spotted
the lights over the ugly Road area. He managed to film this
grape, which appeared to float around 70 feet in the air for a
few minutes before disappearing. It's like
a hexagon. This particular craft.
This is what I am and James had to say
what you always asked you you said well how come there's no
good this is good video. Have you seen this? Yeah, this is
good look at
encounter with the UFO last night.
It's just after 10 o'clock. I've just come back from the stupid
town game in the in the on the eighth.
I have not been drinking
on the phone new shooter Tang grind over to Telford I've just
said something to Skye. It kind of be Chinese lantern. It was
red. It's like some sort of flame in the sky. Now
that's not a Chinese lantern. That's bold. The Chinese lantern
thing is overused as a lame duck. Excuse the real. Everyone
knows the real. That's obvious. Oh, no, let me tell you what's
really happening up in our skies. Okay. This is what's
really going on. Here we go. Yeah, here we go.
First, there were eyes on the street. And now there are eyes
in the skies. The Director of National Intelligence has given
the go ahead for the nation spy satellites to be used regularly
by us civilian agencies and law enforcement.
This is a development all Americans should have great
pride in because it expands.
Are you proud, John? Oh, I'm so proud. I'm so proud of this. We
are so advanced. I'm so proud and
uses a national technical systems which we've built for
10s of billions of dollars. Over many decades,
Spy Satellites have primarily been used overseas to monitor
things like war zones and terror training camps. They've also
been used domestically, but look at hookers sparingly during
events, including Super Bowl games, presidential inaugurals
and hurricanes. Homeland Security officials say the
satellites will now be used to protect borders and critical
infrastructure,
which includes ports and looking at potential vulnerabilities and
threats, as well as consequences of attacks.
Next in line law enforcement agencies, which
are what did he say consequences of what of attacks? Yes, what
he says is of attacks
next in line law enforcement agencies, which are expected to
start using them next year. Well, they can provide crucial
high resolution images, there are limits to what the
satellites can do. They can't see faces, and they can't
listen.
Right? They can't see faces. So this is the this is the whole
system, see the setup as you go through the airport scan, right?
They get all your biometric data. And now they're blatantly
coming out and telling us now we're using the satellites to
spy on you. And they don't need to see your face because they've
got your biometric profile. It's it all fits together. It's so
simple, local law enforcement, but the sheriff can make a call
now. Hey, I gotta check in on that guy's backyard. We got to
see what's going on. I can't see his face, though. I can't
listen. At least
that's what the government claims. The privacy groups worry
that because there's so much we don't know about their
capabilities, they could be misused, and we wouldn't even
know it.
The question always comes down to what are the standards? Are
there checks and balances? And is this a power that we would
trust the executive branch to use without any outside scrutiny
or oversight or control?
If you have nothing to hide, John? Can we have nothing to be
worried about? Right. Right?
Yeah, just had a Murder of Crows go over the House Homeland
Security officials insist that they are subject to a great
amount of oversight and review. But in many ways, this is just
one more case of the government figuring it out as it goes in
the war on terror. CNN,
its war on terror. So
here's what I think these UFOs are, which are all over the
place. Creditors,
Predator drones very possible, very possible. I think that's,
that could be their low if they're, if they're flying down
at 70 feet, but it's so hard to. to guesstimate height when
you're looking
at Yes, Predator drone is Miss sized. So it's impossible. You
know, it's like judging a 747 speed at you know, when you see
it looks like it's going two miles an hour. But the drones
are small and and there's all these new devices that they've
developed that a drone liked, and by all these other companies
is private companies that are selling and they're selling all
of those to law enforcement. And a lot of them have lights on
them. And there's all kinds of possibilities here, but there's
no doubt about it. We're going to be surrounded. I mean, this
is going to be you know, Gitmo nation surveillance,
particularly in the United States. And it's really it's bad
and the and now that they're just coming out and saying it,
just so you know what, oh, well, you know, hey, we're not going
to look at your face. You should be proud. Yeah, we're not gonna
look at your face. Just PS don't worry about that. We're not
interested in you, you know, we're pedo bear. I was wondering
about the blimp, the Goodyear Blimp that flies around LA here.
But why does that thing fly is that that's like you're telling
me that's a good commercial for good year. Like have you ever
bought tires and you thought oh man blimp tires has that ever
worked for you? Know So what are they doing with that blunt
you see it when they did the you got the one that lights up?
That's got the messages? Well that
I can understand. But still it doesn't seem like you know, I
don't know that it floats around during the day here all the time
just floating around. Like what what did you know that you can't
fit a whole bunch of people in there? It's not like a great
tourist attraction. What are they doing on that thing? Never
was like, hey, it's the blimp, meanwhile, give up the chemo
nation stinky cheese. This nice propaganda piece that I found
from Dale Hurd, who now exclusively reports this is this
is like an old school guy, total Ministry of Truth. In fact, he
is from a ministry. He now exclusively reports on the war
on terror. And he does that for CB N. John, are you familiar
with CBN Christian Broadcasting Network is the Christian
Broadcasting Network. And they have such a lying sack of shit
piece that I wonder if the actual subject of the piece is
true or not. So they're going to talk about this guy who has a
alias called Maxime le pumped. And he had he bought an
undercover camera to film this on the streets of Paris. And the
undercover camera consists of a high definition camera, with the
sides blurred out to make it look like it's undercover which
is clearly done in the package itself. If you go to YouTube,
Maxime LaPlante channel he has he has not a single video
uploaded only other videos from other people. So that's a lie.
But listen to a bit of this piece because what is actually
going on may be disturbing, but it's certainly taking into
account that is the Christian Broadcasting Network. I think
it's a big propaganda piece. But interesting. Since we do have a
couple of producers and get my nation stinky cheese, maybe they
can give us some of the truth.
This is a Friday in Paris filmed by hidden camera. The streets
are blocked by a huge crowd of Muslim worshippers and it's
enforced by private security. This is all illegal in France,
the public worship the block streets and the private
security, but the police had been ordered not to intervene.
It shows that even though some in the French government want to
get tough with the Muslims and ban the burqa. Other parts of
the French government continue to give Islam privileged status.
An ordinary French citizen who was watching the Islamization of
Paris, decided that the world needed to see what was happening
to his city so he bought a hidden camera and started
posting the videos on YouTube
thinking of that on Craigslist hidden camera for sale and
literally the video is just the they they they have just blurred
out the sides of this of the 16 by nine so it looks kind of
hidden
yeah this this their videos there apparently there was some
there was some controversy over somebody wanting to put a mosque
someplace and so they the there's a whole neighborhood of
Muslims that decided to basically shut down the streets
six times a day during prayer.
Oh, so that's not mentioned in this story at all. This is what
they're just saying it's happening everywhere. Muslims
are just taking over streets and then putting down their mats and
praying.
Yeah, well, they are in that one area. And and this has been
documented to an extreme by people without hidden cameras. I
know there's just tons of photographers walking around
this. You don't need
a hidden camera. If you're in the area and you got your video
camera you can recruit filmed only they don't nobody cares.
It's not like a big secret. Let's put it that way.
But the punchline of the story is that Parisians are fighting
against this Islamization of Paris. And they're doing that by
holding pork and wine meeting on the street. Oh, there's
some truth. Understand. That's true, too. Yeah, they have been
the same neighborhood is a bunch of shops, you know, then these
guys are irked by the fact that the you know, the foot traffic,
you know, just just annoying. They have, you know, can't get
cars through there and the rest of it. So they've been having a
lot of pork festivals.
This can't end well.
No, no, it's gonna be a riot. But yeah, this France, I mean,
this kind of thing goes.
It's gonna end in tears. And this is the country that of
course wants to ban the burqa. When I think a lot of those
scarves and burqa I think they're sexy. Yeah, you probably
would I do I like it because you know that they're wearing all
kinds of hot stuff underneath. Yeah, that's what you know they
are I know this for a fact.
And so I ran into a new shoe Chantix commercial.
Oh, luckily they're back.
Two whole minutes. Okay, so
Chantix ladies and gentlemen who are new to the program is a drug
that should be outlawed, but yet has been just passed right on
through by the FDA. It is to hell it is a smoking cessation
drug, which basically nukes your brain you it does it is
effective, you will stop smoking. However you will also
wake up naked in a garden unbeknownst unbeknownst location
to you. If you're Mel Gibson, you will probably beat go crazy
on the phone and drive off the road. And many people have been
known to commit suicide and or be killed while on Chantix.
Now here's the question you know, we have a number of
listeners who gave us a personal anecdotes and you have one of
course because Mickey had tried the drug. Yeah. But we had a
number of listeners that have sent us notes about this stuff.
And I never thought about this before but I think I'm going to
just put this out. Has anybody who normally listen to our show
ever you Shan takes with good results. I hear crickets anyway,
here's the new Shanta extreme version of the difference
between this one I got a different woman telling her
tale. But all along unfortunately can't do this on
the on the radio, which is there's a there's a thing.
There's a bunch of these messages written out Chantix,
you know, stops you does a there's a bunch of which you
don't get to see but you get the gist of the whole commercial.
Now
this is a double buy because typically they have a minute of
which 45 seconds is all the good stuff, which actually makes you
buy it which is the disclaimers. Yeah, the anal leakage, weird
dreams. Don't make sure you're okay before driving or operating
heavy machinery, make sure you know that the effects of Chantix
and of course all the while we know that the was it wasn't 32
or 37% of people who took the placebo had the same results and
actually stopped smoking when
they have the numbers. I think it's 44%. It's affected on 44%.
But 18 of those percentages, were given a placebo with a
placebo. So the basically the effectiveness is about 30%. Net,
which is lousy.
Yeah. All right. So this is now a two minute commercial. So
they've upped the ante. There. It's a fight. John, we're
fighting against them and it looks like they're winning.
Exactly.
My name is Lisa and I smoked for 29 years. The one thing about
smoking is it dominates your life and it dominated mine. I
honestly loved smoking and I honestly didn't think I would
ever quit. It was very interesting that you could smoke
on the first week.
Chantix is a non nicotine pill that stays with you all day to
help you quit in studies. 44% of Chantix users were quit during
weeks nine to 12 with treatment compared to 18% on sugar pill is
proven to reduce the urge to smoke.
I did have an open pack of cigarettes in my purse. I said
you know, I don't need you anymore. You're not my crutch. I
don't need a crutch.
Ask your doctor if Chantix is right for you and find out how
you can save money on your prescription@chantix.com Some
people have had changes in behavior hostility, agitation,
depressed mood and suicidal thoughts or actions while taking
or after stopping Chantix. If you notice agitation hostility,
depression or changes in behaviors, thinking or mood that
are not typical for you, or if you develop suicidal thoughts or
actions stop taking Chantix and call your doctor right away.
Talk to your doctor about any history of depression or other
mental health problems which can get worse while taking Chantix.
Some people can have allergic or serious skin reactions to
Chantix, some of which can be life threatening. If you notice
swelling of face, mouth, throat or a rash. Stop taking Chantix
and see your doctor right away. Do not take Chantix if you've
had a serious allergic or skin reaction to Chantix. Tell your
doctor which medicines you're taking as they may work
differently when you put smoking. Chantix dosing may be
different if you have kids problems. The most common side
effect is nausea. Patients also reported trouble sleeping and
vivid, unusual or strange dreams. Until you know how
Chantix may affect you use caution when driving or
operating machinery. Chantix should not be taken with other
quit smoking products.
With the Chantix and with the support system, work for me,
talk to
your doctor about Chantix. Find out how you can save money on
your prescription and learn terms and
conditions@chantix.com. Nice.
Sounds grew long, long, long.
Yeah. How can we save money?
So I've got you did you go to the site? I'm fine. I'm there.
I'm gonna if I want to mention a couple of things. And I have
another drug commercial we could play if I were to kind of even
kind of exaggerate this. I don't know where where these people
live. But I don't know very few people that can if something
just some little thing happens. You call your doctor that the
doctor is ever going to answer.
Yeah, no. We know this. We know.
And there's a worst drug or the worst ad for this. I've got
another one called angelisa which is a diabetes drug that it
makes it sound as though you apparently you have to be the
doctor telling your doctor a bunch of stuff that you just
play this commercial. And it has a it makes you wonder if this is
like the doctor should be telling you that you have some
of these issues that you're that they want you to tell the doctor
about. You know what I'm trying to say
if you have type two diabetes, you struggle to control your
blood sugar. You exercise and eat right but your blood sugar
may still be high and you need extra help. Ask your doctor
about like a once daily medicine used with diet and exercise to
control high blood sugar and adults with type two diabetes.
Adding a grinder to your current oral medicine may help reduce
after me a blood sugar spikes and may help reduce our morning
blood sugar.
On glasses should not be used to treat type one diabetes or
diabetic ketoacidosis. Telling your doctor if you have a
history or risk of diabetic ketoacidosis on Glaiza has not
been studied with insulin. Using Onglyza with medicines such as
sulfonylureas may cause low blood sugar. Some symptoms of
low blood sugar are shaking, sweating, and rapid heartbeat.
Call your doctor if you have an allergic reaction like rash
cries or swelling of the face, mouth or throat. Ask your doctor
if you also take a tz D as swelling in the hands feet or
ankles may worsen blood tests will check for kidney problems.
You may need a lower dose of Onglyza if your kidneys are not
working well. Or if you take certain medicines.
Ask your doctor about adding on Glaiza extra health extra
control, you may be eligible to pay $10 a month for the Eliza
value card program.
Now, just dev commercials not a great one. But but well how do
you tell your doctor that you have diabetic ketoacidosis? Hey,
Doc, I've got one I've been telling you that. I mean,
wouldn't he know that? If he's your doctor? I
don't know. I don't know what it is. I don't know what it is
either. But
how would you be telling him I just said the whole ad is good.
And there's a lot of this assumption that oh just call
your doctor. Just call your doctor. If you got it is
swelling up like a balloon just call your doctor. He's got
nothing else to take your call because it's just
a it's just a legal requirement to say that that's all. So
Chantix is $30 off if you download the coupon
oh, what's the deal? Yeah, that's good, are you it's
probably stuff I cost hundreds of dollars.
But the real good stuff is going to our vets coming back from
Iraq and the FDA, and the Drug Enforcement Agency officials
have said yeah, it's okay. We're going to start treating our
troops who are there for a misguided bullshit war for
poppies trains and oil pipeline. We're gonna start treating them
for post traumatic stress disorder with ecstasy.
Let's Yep. Did you get that one from Wired?
Right. Yeah, MDMA. That's right.
It's that's not good for you.
I've never done it actually. So I have no idea.
I apparently never done it because it's not good for you.
Apparently. You
get all lovey dovey? Yeah, well, I've
got I know somebody who used to use it all the time. And and
every time she was on it, she
she was just, you would call her over you mean?
Usually with somebody. I call her out on it because it was
like nobody smiles that much with a goofball. Look,
is that is that it? Is that the giveaway? The
giveaway. It's like a big smile and a goofball.
Like this? Really, but no, I mean, lots of people love it.
They like oh, it's fantastic. And they'd like to go out and
party but I do understand that after the effects were out then
you like crash really hard for a couple of days. Which seems like
not quite not not worth it. You know what I mean?
Yeah, no, nothing. Yeah. These drugs are not healthy.
So most certainly these will be veterans from Iraq or
Afghanistan because longer duration of post traumatic
stress disorder means more complicating factors as Dr.
Nitin Hofer adding, he does anticipate enrolling for vets
from earlier wars and is still accepting applications so we can
still get in.
Now the doctor drugs Yeah. Wow. Well, that's not good. That's
just gonna cause more suicides.
I you know, it doesn't well, either that or just a whole
bunch of zombies walking around giggling Yeah, that could be and
this is this is wired, of course an extension of the Ministry of
Truth. Of course, the Pentagon still struggling to better
diagnose and address Post Traumatic Stress Disorder most
recently with a cutting edge, cutting edge 72,000 square foot
research facility. Wow. Despite you'd think that after like five
wars, we kind of can recognize what it is. And then we have a
cutting edge 72,000 square foot research. You know what it is is
like you put young kids near exploding crap and seeing their
buddies get blown to bits. Yeah, that's what creates it and don't
need a cutting edge 72,000 square foot research facility to
find that out. Despite the military's gradual fall on
alternative methods to treat the disorder. Already they funded
everything from yoga and acupuncture to warrior mind
training. The although the FDA and the DEA are all over it. top
brass in the military have yet to fully endorse. The use of
MDMA is just dumb.
Well, it says we're on MDMA. I have a clip, which I believe
this woman is on MDMA, as she's trying to speak. This is the
incredibly vapid announcer on Burning Man special that was on
Current TV Al Gore's station. I'm sorry. Here we go.
Hello, are you beautiful humans. I'm Michelle Lombardo and
Welcome to Burning Man lives.
So you've answered my question. This is what someone on MDMA
sounds like.
She this woman is gorgeous, but she just seems like he's dumb as
a firefighter. And
she's doing this from Burning Man.
Is that the deal? It looks like a studio.
Oh, yes. A blue screen. Okay.
Hello. Are you beautiful humans. That's
how I'm going to start the show on Thursday. Hello, you
beautiful humans.
I'm Michelle Umberto and Welcome to Burning Man lives. I'm so
happy you can join me. Because over the next hour, we'll travel
to Nevada's Black Rock Desert for the Burning Man festival.
I'm so thankful to have the ability to take you on this
journey. Because Burning Man has opened me up in many ways to the
life that I want to lead. Baby. I'll bet it's opened you up. I
hope it does a bit of the same for you. That said I figured why
not jump right in literally. First up is a burners take on a
wedding skydive style.
So I have some news about Burning Man. They've got ad cops
undercover in costume roaming around busting people for gosh
for taking drugs. Officials from the US Bureau of Land Management
and Pershing County Sheriff's departments cite a new study by
the US Park Police that concludes even larger police
presence is needed. It shouldn't be 144 Mark piddle. Pirtle, I'm
sorry, Special Agent in Charge says I don't want my guys to be
party poopers they're not bad people. But they do like to use
drugs. And you are still in a in a non drug state here. So they
are dressing. It's like they're undercover. They're undercover
in costume and they're bustin people doing drugs. The whole
point of Burning Man is to go to the desert where you can't hurt
anyone and like take acid and MDMA and freak out for a couple
of days and then it's it's like a release that's what the whole
thing is about.
This is not okay. Real has to did just beginning of the end at
some point and a few years from now to be all cops bustin each
other. Got really
1900 burners have been cited by the BLM since 2001 That's
actually not all that much right? Think about it
what's the BLM?
Let me see that must be burning man. something or other BLM
that's weird that just throw this BLM thing and all of a
sudden I don't see a reference to it earlier and I hate that by
the way. writers out
there taker annoying. Sue mean that you know what BLM means?
It literally does not say John KLM Let me let me just do a
search on this page. Let me see. I mean, it should it should have
it and that should be in charge for the BLM. Right? Shouldn't it
should be like BLM or it should be like the the acronym expanded
and then in, in parentheses, BLM. Right. So that can
reference one way story. Yeah, we do a couple of different
ways. Anyway. All right. So wrong. It's wrong is what it is.
I have one more thing that I think is semi newsworthy. Yeah,
so
Oh, Bureau Bureau of Land Management. I'm sorry. Oh, of
course. But they should put that in there.
Yeah, they should. Thank you. They should have US Bureau of
Land Management first and then just go with it should have been
BLT
says the drunk economist. Much better. Okay.
So this is apparently the 40th anniversary of her all those big
being in broadcasting. Nobody gave him a roast. Nobody said
anything about it. Nobody gives a crap to be honest about it. So
Geraldo decides to throw himself a party and extol himself. On
his weekend show, I just have the opening clip of it, but it's
so ridiculous. It's like kind of feel sorry for the guy. I'm
great.
Hi, everybody, I'm Geraldo Rivera, and welcome to the
celebration of my four decades in the news business system.
Sad. Welcome,
I matter, I'm relevant for
males as involved at the show. It has been a fascinating run
into dynamic, exotic, wonderful, often important, but frequently
stressful and sometimes dangerous business that tends to
wear out people more quickly than most jobs. And there aren't
many still standing who started in that wild era when the Civil
Rights Movement had collapsed into Urban Chaos. The endless
war in Vietnam was tearing our nation apart. How old is
Geraldo?
Well, he started he was probably started in 1970. If you started
in 97, he probably just got out of school. He's probably about
65.
He's like, really after he's after the human rights movement.
He's pretending like he's
if you do the math, it's 97. So he's trying to make it sound is
a little, you know, was volved. Earlier, you know, exactly. I
shook hands with Martin Luther King. I blew him.
Richard Nixon was still president. The deaths of four
students at Kent State University at the hands of Ohio
National Guardsmen was accelerating the alienation of
young people all across our country, and self style rebels,
like me didn't trust anyone over 30 On television, then longer
than most Americans have been alive. My entire adult life has
played out in public. Many of you have watched my high and low
dramas, my audio triumphs like the long campaign to humanize
the care of the developmentally disabled, and my not so triumphs
like getting my nose broken, and opening out Capone's empty
vault. So it limited commercial interruption let the celebration
begin to this free commercial interruption back in the flash,
Iraq. I am awesome.
That is just hit that and
notice how he's like not a single sponsor wanted to sponsor
this piece of crap celebration, so it's commercial free. Oh,
man.
So you know, roast or something? I mean, I wrote Yeah,
roast him. When I said, Yeah, put it nobody put them on the
spit. And, like really roast them. So so someone sent me a
list of the questions you must answer to become a citizen of
these United States of Gitmo nation. And, and they pointed
out one in particular, but let me just ask, I'll start at
number 80. And they'll take it to 86. John, it's I think it's
open ended. So I don't know if it's not multiple choice, you
have to actually answer the question. So let's see if you're
worthy of being a slave of Gitmo nation, shall we? Sure. Who was
president during World War One? Wilson? Yes. Who was president
during the Great Depression and World War Two? Roosevelt? Guess?
Who did the United States fight in World War Two?
Germany and Japan? Yes. And
if you said Italy, that would have been correct as well.
Before he was President Eisenhower was a general what
war was he
in? Wow, World War Two. This is pathetic.
You notice a trend here during the Cold War? These are an order
by the way. What was the main concern of the United States
getting blown to smithereens by the Russian That's right. But
communism
would be the correct answer. What movement tried to end
racial discrimination?
Try it says tried. Yes. The Civil Rights Movement is
correct. 85 What did Martin Luther King Jr. Do
it is a minute is a preacher 20 was
no no, no. What did he do? That's the answer the question
slave
gave a speech.
You're wrong slave. He fought for civil rights.
Well, we know that
you clearly didn't slave 86 This is my favorite question. What
major event happened on September 11 2001 in the United
States,
they pulled down World Trade Center seven wrong slave
terrorists attacked the United States. CDC says this is the
most outrageous set of quite this is what qualifies you to
become a citizen of Gitmo nation. If you can answer these
questions about war.
Those are pretty brain dead to it's worse.
I mean, it's factually being a student of history. John, many
of these questions are factually just incorrect, for instance,
because I always thought the questions were like, who was the
first president? Right, which would be George Washington,
although not really but okay. It would be George Washington. And
who was the 16th? President? right those are those are the
questions you think it is. What are two rights of everyone
living in the United States?
What are two rights Yes. Name to slave. The right to assemble and
the right to free speech?
Yes, it freedom of speech answer the question and the answer in
quorum question. What do we show loyalty to when we say the
Pledge of Allegiance slave? Come on, what do we pledge and what
do we
do? Of course, and
what else?
And the United States of America? Yes, yes. Yes.
Yes. Yes. What is the one promise you make when you become
a United States citizen?
To defend the Constitution? Wrong slave?
What is the first answer?
It should be defend the Constitution slave?
The first answer is give up loyalty to other countries. obey
the laws of the United States. Serve in the US military, if
needed. Serve, do important work for the nation, if needed, be
loyal to the United States. And then finally, defend the
Constitution. This is ridiculous.
Well let you have a link to the show notes. I hope Yes, it's
the ah, it's just it's it's outrageous. And they talk about
Lincoln. Which is really funny. Here it is. A slave. To see him
doing. What was one important thing Abraham Lincoln did. But
it was slave. Slave, um, give me a hint, slave. What do you do?
He freed the slaves. Yes, that's right. He freed the slaves. What
did the Emancipation Proclamation do?
freed the slaves? That's right. What are you? Slaves?
You are a slave. It's just unbelievable. This is what you
have to learn.
That doesn't sound right. I thought there were harder
questions in that I thought they were they I was under the
impression back when I was a kid, that the questions were the
kinds of questions that most Americans couldn't answer.
Because there were too complicated. They
can't answer these questions. They absolutely can't answer
these questions. Now.
Hanging out of your private private very few people know
that Wilson was World
War One I don't think they know at all. So what I found kind of
interesting, we had this earthquake issue guy,
we should do a little on the street thing. And I'll tell you
what, I'll do it with Eddie. Okay.
With Eddie, do that. Do the do the citizens have questions with
Eddie? Oh my god, that'd be great. That'd be awesome. Okay,
the link is in the show notes under what does it get mo nation
pass the new US citizenship test 2010. And it's actually listed
under citizenship test tips. Tips. So the earthquake machine
was flicked on in New Zealand, and I
figured you're gonna get to that. So I have a counter clip
who after you're done,
okay. What I found interesting is MSNBC immediately comes out
and says, In January a 7.0 earthquake hit Haiti. 230,000
people died today a 7.0 earthquake hit New Zealand.
Early indications are that it caused relatively few serious
casualties what is the difference? And then he goes on
to say that it is that the the type of earthquake quotation
marks in the air was exactly the same type as Haiti, namely very
shallow and it went from side to side instead of up and down. Of
course, that is the signature of the earthquake machine. What Uh,
what is most interesting is that of course, I don't think anyone
died in Christ Church. Nope. New Zealand because and the whole
point is because new people don't live in shacks and and
shoddily built buildings. But more importantly, of course, the
whole place is under curfew. So all the slaves have to stay
inside. They're not allowed out after I think it's 10pm. So it's
a clamp down on. There's only two or 3000 people there for
Christ's sakes, and Christ in Christ Church. So everyone is
under curfew may not come out because they're afraid something
might fall on their head. But to me, we'll find out there's
something going on. Either they had to keep the slaves inside
for some reason, or there's some oil exploration going on, or
something had to be shaken up. But it has the exact same
signature as the Haiti earthquake, which I think pretty
much now is. We're pretty clear that that was the earthquake
machine. What is your clip about? Yeah,
well, my clip is about how many earthquakes they actually have
in this area, which indicates to me this wasn't the earthquake
machine but just an earthquake which do occur. And so my clip
which you have right there in New Zealand earthquake edit kind
of bring runs down the whole story and then number, so number
appears at the end.
Essence of aftershocks continue to hit New Zealand South Island
after Saturday's powerful 7.1 earthquake. Celia Hatton on how
the island nation is beginning its recovery effort,
toppled buildings, flooded streets, crushed cars, and even
a fire. This is what the people of Christchurch face today after
a powerful 7.0 magnitude earthquake struck New Zealand's
second biggest city hovering
over sideways, and it was shaking back and forth. As if it
had been hit by something
many say it's a miracle no one died in the quake, which was as
strong as the one that hit Haiti earlier this year. Is the inland
experience is 14,000 earthquakes annually. So what the buildings
are well fortified, but they were no match for these tremors.
14,000 Sure.
No, we could 14,000 in California.
So let's just I'm gonna do from now on I'm only going to
interview somebody with an alarm bell.
That is the best, isn't it? That is fantastic. But the city has
gone into lockdown, because of course, things only fall on your
head at night. Not during the day. That's obvious. earthquake
prediction, Quake prediction.com is predicting a 92% chance of a
5.5 or greater in the San Francisco area over the next two
days. So
is there a link in the show notes? Yes,
good luck. Ania. Quake prediction.com
That's it. That's a zero to 5.5 would be nothing that's nothing
it'd be like a like a like a cheap massage at Berkeley. Spa
and yellow stone, which of course has been rumbling for
quite a bit. This this is truly not earthquake machine material.
This is just earthquakes. No, this
is bad. Yeah. So
story from discovery. Of course you have those buildings in
right near the CIA. What happened here there was the
tectonic plates were completely ruptured under Yellowstone. Is
that what the story is? So it looks like so does that mean
that we're gonna get a real a real big one now?
No, it didn't. Nobody knows. I mean, this the Yellowstone thing
that blows up every 600,000 years? The caldera there, it's
the world's biggest volcano. And when it happens, it usually
wipes out all humanity for much. I think they you end up with a
vert you end up with some survival. You know, because you
can survive on by eating your dead friends, I guess for like,
as essentially, there's no food. I mean, you can't grow anything.
It's a bit like a blackout for a couple of years. It's, it's not
good. No. And it would, you know, destroy civilization as we
know it, probably for a decade or more.
In other news, roaming gangs, roving gangs of flesh, flesh
eating human resources. What is this meme about men being like
worthless these days? Have you been noticed this?
Oh, oh, man. I wish I had a joy bitbay har
clip about it? Well, there's a couple things first of all,
women are now you know, choosing to get sperm from the sperm
bank. You know, because, you know, because we don't need men
for that. Well, we need men at one point we actually need a man
in our lives. Look at Hollywood. We've got the backup plan, the
switch. The Kids Are All Right. It's just seems like men are
just being pushed me we're just unnecessary or this other MIT
did a study 13% of all MIT students female have sex toys.
Actually, 16% of MIT women have toys. 26% of the females in the
senior class have sex toys, or I should say sexual aides to see
we're not necessary anymore. It's just the mean, you women
will be sorry. Yeah, when you wake up and realize that, oh,
wait a minute, those guys are kind of handy. But it just said
to me, Am I nuts? Or is this really in the popular culture
that men are just like, they're, I think they
take a run at this every so often. And I don't know who they
are. But I've noticed that this is a cycle that comes and goes
and never gets much traction. Because at some point, you know,
it's almost like you know, as the economy collapses, the men
are
out of a job. Of course, most men are not working because all
the men die that it
forces a lot of women to become hookers.
Men can be hookers, too, John.
Well, around here is for sure. Yeah. around these parts.
But you agree with me? Right? It's, there's definitely
something going on. There's there's a I mean, I haven't seen
it like this ever. In my lifetime. I don't think
you're done in LA where I think you know, which is a cultural is
the cultural nexus for everything that happens in the
world pretty much. But you can't normally see it, you know,
because you're in the middle of it. But I think you're just
you're surrounded by that. And so I think is more noticeable
there. I'm not seeing it as so. So okay, well, let
me just let me just say this women, I got my eye on you.
Okay. I am watching up. Come a red blooded American male
dammit. And I know what happened on September 11. So I'm an
American.
Anyway, yeah,
I think we should end the show. I have an after show clip. Which
if you have not seen it, it's rather short. But it's a little
long to just play in the show. And it's best if you see the
animation as the scan wild commercial. From New World Order
solutions featuring Mr. tinkles. It has to be seen to be fully
enjoyed the scan. Wow. I'm sure you have not seen this yet.
John? No, oh, it's It's fabulous. The audio will be will
be good enough. So we'll play that as an after show clip. And
what we really want is your support of this program so we
can continue doing all this work? A lot. What time did you
get up this morning, John?
Said he got up at 630.
I got up at 530. And I still and I still don't have time enough.
It's just It's Oh, I almost forgot to tell you about the no
agenda tour. Hey, John would tell us. Yeah, well, everyone
who listened to Davey source code knows Mickey and I are
going to go on a an RV trip to the United States. And we're
going to go it's the Hot Pockets across America tour. And we're
going to visit all of our no agenda producers. All of them as
many as we can. We know it can be a six week trip could be an
eight week trip. It's whatever it takes. We're just and we're
going to have the producers put a map together and steer us
which direction we have to go in. And we'll be doing no agenda
daily from the road. And of course, the show from the road.
I'm glad you told me about this.
stepping aside for your enthusiasm.
No, I think it's actually going around in an RV we've done it is
actually very interesting. You'll have a good time.
Well, not only that, but I think it'd be great for all the
producers and you know, we'll get some local local flavor of
what's happening in Gitmo nation the only thing of course we need
is for the producers to come up with an RV
and you need to rally you rent them obviously not gonna buy
we're not gonna
buy one we're someone that someone has a rich uncle
somewhere who can give us an RV
there's probably an RV rental company guy listens to us. You
need to do videos all along the way cuz you'll run into weird
marriage.
Not just that, but Mickey is going to do a whole photo
journal and it's gonna be awesome.
No agenda a publicity stunt. Yes,
no agenda tour.com Already forwards to our site. Thanks to
Mr. Oil. And, well, we're gonna need your support for that
