It's crazy talk. Adam curry. John C Dvorak, it's Thursday, August 15, 2024

Adam CurryAdam Curry

this is your award winning Kimber nation. Media assassination Episode 1686,

Unknown

this is no agenda, Mama.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

We're all crazy now, and we're broadcasting live from the heart of the Texas Hill Country, here in FEMA Region, number six in the morning, everybody. I'm Adam curry and from

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Northern Silicon Valley, where I see that brought Matthew Perry's killers to justice. I'm John C Dvorak.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Now, wait a minute. Wait a minute. I thought he drowned of of accidental MDMA sleeping in his pool,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

ketamine overdose,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

right? Yeah, ketamine was ketamine. You're right. We knew that. That's not news. They

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

brought the four they they charged five people, oh, of his death, including two MDs, one of whom said, I wonder how much more this moron is going to pay for this stuff?

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Do they have this on tape? They

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

have it all the text messages which they scramble to to get rid of once they started getting busted left and right. Oh, no. But unfortunately, nobody seems to realize that text messages are stored here and

Adam CurryAdam Curry

there in certain places

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

and wow, no dummies, wow.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Well, that's pretty amazing.

Unknown

Yeah, huh? Poor guy.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

So this, so the docs killed him. Now, this micro dosing of Kevin,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

the docs got him fully addicted. Yeah? And then, then a ketamine queen of LA,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

who is the ketamine queen? Ketamine queen.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

It's a very interesting I was watching it this morning on Court TV press conference. That's

Adam CurryAdam Curry

what you're doing with your prep mornings. I see, I see, really did

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

you see one of these things? What? What?

Adam CurryAdam Curry

There's a lot to discuss. My friend. Get the bonus clip, by the way. Oh, wait, no, I did not get a bonus clip. Let me see. Let me see what your bonus clip? He's got a bonus clip. Hold on a second. Okay, let me put it into the into the bin. All right. Bonus clip is in the bin, but there is, there's some big news. Big news today. Big news. We have a winner. Not bird flu, not covid, flirt, not sloth fever or dengue, no, ladies and gentlemen, it

Unknown

is M box. The World Health Organization tonight is declaring M pox, formerly known as monkey pox, a global public health emergency, as a new form of the virus is now rapidly spreading across Africa. Cases have been detected to more than a dozen countries, more of them and the Democrat most of them, rather, in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, with more

than 14,000 cases, there 524 deaths this year alone. Here at home, the CDC is urging doctors and the public to be alert for signs of the virus, including fever, muscle aches, swollen lymph nodes. Dr ashkeal is joining us now.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Oh man M pox to the rescue. Just in time for the election, get your mail in, ballots ready. This is horrible. Oh no, we can't go vote. No. Doctor, tell us.

Unknown

Doctor, how big of a threat is this in terms of a global perspective, and what does this global health emergency really do from a practical standpoint? Hey, time. So this is actually the second time in three years the who has declared a public health emergency over over m pox. And what we're seeing now is, yes, the cases are largely in in Africa, specifically in the DRC, the Democratic Republic. But the reason they're calling this out now Tom is that it's actually leaking. I think, by

Adam CurryAdam Curry

the way, the whole Democratic Republic of Congo is, is subtle messaging, Democrats, Democrats, to your mass to the mass mobile Democrat, Democrat, Republic of Congo, Republic

Unknown

of Congo. But the reason they're calling this out now Tom, is that it's actually leaking out into neighboring countries. This is a different strain than the impacts outbreak we saw a few years ago, including here in the US. This one has a fatality rate about 15 to 30 times higher,

significantly more deadly than the other ones. You can see the WHO IS is acting quickly here in the Ph D, I see the public health emergency really calls for nations to start sharing resources, vaccines, treatments, research can be really, really useful for those countries. And you can see really, even time we just got in the last hour from HHS saying that, while the CDC Yes, saying the public should be alert right now, the threat is

very low here in the United States. People should nonetheless be on the lookout for this thing, for this, for this virus, and into stay alert for those symptoms that you mentioned earlier there. Tom, yes, they

Adam CurryAdam Curry

alert. Stay alert for these symptoms now. Before we continue with Dr shy, she all, we must go, because he's back as well. Ladies and gentlemen. Welcome back to the ring. Dr Tedros, last week,

Unknown

I announced that I was convening an emergency committee under the International Health Regulations to evaluate the upsurge of mpox in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and other countries in Africa. Today, the Emergency Committee met and advised me that, in its view, the situation constitutes a public health emergency of international concern. It is a

Adam CurryAdam Curry

public emergency, public emergency of international concern. The

Unknown

situation constitutes a public health emergency of international

Adam CurryAdam Curry

not sure what it is, but it sounds bad that it's public and

Unknown

rapid spread of a new clade of M pox in eastern DRC. It's detection in neighboring countries that had not previously reported M pox, and the potential for further spread within Africa and beyond is very worrying. Worry clear that a coordinated international response is essential to stop these outbreaks and save lives. We

Adam CurryAdam Curry

must save lives because there are many deaths. Let's go back to Dr Akshay at NBC, Hey,

Unknown

doctor, talking about the symptoms, I thought, are we missing one? In other words, I thought that one of the symptoms with monkey pox anyway, was gayness, kind of a severe blistering type of thing. Yes, it was that rash bullet on there. You can see in the bottom right that it's very It's very typical of M pox. When you when you see it, you can't really miss it. But those are the

symptoms you mentioned, fever, chills, exhaustion. Odds are, if you're having those things, it's probably something else, including the flu or maybe even covid. But the rash really is the hallmark symptom Tom that blistering rash you mentioned. Yes.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Okay, so before I have two more clips here, there's a discrepancy here that is very odd. Looking at all of the videos we're seeing, mainly kids looks like they have chicken pox. They're walking into the tents. We've got once again, we've got Africa, we've got tents, we got people in hazmat suits. Oh no, oh no, it's the M pox. But we don't forget easily here at the no agenda show. Thank you for accentuating

my point. We go back to the previous M pox outbreak here in the United States, let us remember what that was all about. Here's a supercut. Is a

Unknown

disease that the majority of people who have it in this country are men who have sex with other men, men who have sex with men, male to male sexual contact, men who have sex with men, male to male sexual contact, men who have sex with men, who have sex with men, men who have sex with men, men who have sex with other men, men who have sex with men, men who have sex with men, men who've had sex with men, men who have sex with men.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Alright, so last time, it was only for men who have sex with men, which confused us in general. And now it seems to be everybody. It's a new strain. And the most detailed information I could get came to us from the CBC, Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. It's

Unknown

the second time now that the World Health Organization has declared a public health emergency of international concern for mpox, and we heard from them on this just this past hour, and it follows outbreaks in Congo and elsewhere in Africa, with cases seen among children adults in

more than a dozen countries. There. You can see in some of those visuals, there the symptoms of this condition and pox, which was known as monkey pox, known for causing painful post filled lesions, also can cause severe illness or even

death as well. It was first in the headlines a few years ago, the summer of 2022 after an explosion of illnesses then and the last emergency, public health emergency like this was declared by the WHO that lasted about 10 months, The Who, The Who, part of me says that in this current outbreak, the cases have actually exceeded the total number seen in all of Last 14

about 14,000 cases so far as well, 524 deaths. Who says that it's working on the ground in affected countries with its partners there, says it's supporting laboratories to see sequence viral samples, health workers, supporting clinicians to provide appropriate care, also supporting countries to access, helping them with rolling out those vaccines. It does say that it has developed a regional response plan here, and it has released 1.5 million US dollars from fund that it has

but it is appealing to donors to provide more money as well. Says that it's coordinate the global response, working closely with those and leveraging its on the ground presence to treat those infected, prevent transmission, and ultimately to save lives. Oh, save

Adam CurryAdam Curry

lives. Gotta save lives.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

That was much of a report. It's a guy. The guy says at the end of a word,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I got a note just in time from Dame Trish. Dame Trish has been in the medical field for, I believe, up close to 20 years. And she says, I hope I know your time is valuable, but I think this monkey pox data will interest you. This comes from the National Vaccine Information Center, and luckily, she has done some work for us. She has given us an excerpt.

Here come the mRNA smallpox and monkeypox vaccines amid unanswered questions about why the monkeypox virus is suddenly mutating and becoming more virulent, virulent and transmissible among humans. It sure looks like the public

health Empire is gearing up for a global monkey pox pandemic. If it does come to pass, the solution they will offer is to make sure everyone gets an ortho pox virus vaccine, just like in the old days, when every child was mandated to get the highly reactive smallpox vaccine, without understanding just how lethal the side effects were and how many infants, children and

adults would be injured or die from those side effects. The difference between today and the old days is that people around the world are suffering with broad based immune dysfunction due to either infection with the lab mutated SARS cov virus, covid two virus, or injection with the lethal mRNA biological, or both. And that makes the addition of another mRNA biological a potential prescription for disaster, disaster, or disaster, that

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

disaster for the Democrat Party. Man,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

we took a trip, and there were a lot of Democrats at the airport. I mean, mask wearers, is there a difference? Oh, my goodness, since

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

you've been playing this, I want to play an old mad ow clip, and it's under old. This is Jad Ow. I think obviously get that correct. This is an old mad ow clip so we can be reminded about how great the news is. Now

Unknown

we know that the vaccines work well enough that the virus stops with every vaccinated person stop. I

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

got infected about two weeks ago. It was my third infection, and I had been vaccinated and boosted a total of six times. It's juxtaposition of clips.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Yes, indeed. Fauci getting the getting the vacs and the mask, and Yo, he's already saying, wear your mask again. Wear your mask. Wear your mask. Ah, I mean this. I think they've got something here, you know, they've been trying the bird flu wouldn't fly. Covid, you know, no one cares.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Yeah, you know, I think they've got a vaccine or something they want to sell. I'm not sure that this is what you're looking for. These aren't the drones you're looking for. I think the one that they're missing out on, they can still pull it out, pull a rabbit out of the hat with the sloth, with the sloth blue.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Sloth fever, everything, no, it's called sloth Fever,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

fever slots. Fever also has a you can do, I can see song parodies. Sloth fever has comes out of Brazil. Comes out of Brazil. It's a Zika, oh, Zika variant, Zika Zika. And it's went from straight from Brazil to Cuba to Europe. It hasn't come over here yet. And it seems to me, because of the Zika angle, and it causes birth defects, it's a better way to go. I would have gone with that. Hmm, yeah.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

But you know, they're, they're not all that smart. They really aren't. Hey, let me we have there's

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

kind of screwed up because this monkey pox thing, like you played the super cut, yeah. I mean, that was the whole scam. Was this all men having sex with men? But no one remembers that. Watch this wide open.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

So to speak, we're the only ones who remember that stuff. Man, come on. Now, I've just seen the news flow. I mean, I don't know if they're going to make it with this. I agree. I think sloth fever sounds better. It's a funnier name. It's a Zika variant, but they're trying. They are. They need to do something, and now is the time. Now is the moment they got to do it. They got they got to lock them down. They got to lock them down. So

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

have you seen the clips of the lockdown in Minnesota when they had the cops are walking down the street, shooting people, shooting

Adam CurryAdam Curry

people, yes, yeah, with

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

paintballs, yeah, although the now, were

Adam CurryAdam Curry

they really paintballs? Because they had paintballs. Don't have an explosion in the gun.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

They there was the sound effect was from the paintballs hitting the house. No,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

but you saw a flash. You saw. A flash. I

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

never saw a flash. I saw flashes. Well, I saw the person getting hit, but they had the one clip with a girl got hit with the paintball, and she was then they showed her maybe,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

maybe they were using the rubber bullet guns. Just loaded them up with paint balls instead of rubber. Rubber bullets can do some damage, yeah,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

but I think it was, I don't think you can put a paint. Paint balls aren't the same as a rubber bullet. You'd have to get a paintball gun. They had paintball guns there. Was pathetic. This was and I have the clip. The bonus clip, which I gave to you is the clip of the think line that wall, this walls, is a bad guy in every single way. I think that

more people that start to see he's creepy. He's a creepy guy, and he put this line in so you call and think on your neighbors if they left the house and they had cops walking around shooting at you if you But meanwhile, of course, they could burn the City of Minneapolis. Now that's no big deal, of course, but this is what the think line. This is what it the recording I have it once you want to play that.

Unknown

Hello, you have reached the Department of Public Safety stay at home hotline. The information you leave is considered public information. At the tone, please leave the following information, your name, your callback number, how the stay at home order is being violated and where the stay at home order was violated. Thank you.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

That's what you do, man, that's what you do that. That is what you do in your neighborhood. It's a beautiful day in your neighborhood. Rat on your neighbors. You know, he knows the golden rule, mind your own damn business, and rat on your neighbors. That is him.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

So, yes, unavoidable, by the way, as we speak, the Kamala Harris is going to have her first interview right now on x Oh, being interviewed by walls. No, no,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

that's fantastic. So John, let me ask you a few questions about me, pretty much. Yeah, well, this comes amongst severe pressure from the mainstream media, including CNN Jim Acosta, who would have thought, here he is with the Harris waltz comms director,

Unknown

would it kill you guys to have a press conference? Why hasn't she had a press conference? Listen to the Vice President, Governor Walz. Have Been busy criss crossing this country, the launch of this campaign, and adding Governor walls to the ticket. You saw the ways in which they went across the battleground states last week, generating rallies of 1000s, 10,000 here, 15,000 there. But Michael, you know, a campaign rally is not a press Do you mind if I cut in? I mean,

you know, a campaign rally is not a press conference. Why isn't she at a press conference? She's the vice president. She can handle the questions. Why not do it? We absolutely are going to do it. You hear her take questions as she's out on the stump, and she's she said last week, we're going to be having a sit down interview here before

the end of the month. What she's going to be focused on, and what this campaign is going to be focused on, is communicating directly with the voters that are actually going to decide the pathway to 270 electoral votes. That's why she press conference

last week this past week. That's why we're doing a bus tour in Pennsylvania as we head into Chicago, and it's why we'll sit down for an interview before the end of the month, to make sure we can have a deep conversation about the vision that Kamala Harris has for where she wants to take this country in the contrast that we're going to have with Donald Trump. We're going to have plenty of opportunities to do that throughout the Michael but one interview by the end of the

month. This month, I don't, I don't want to, you know, belabor this, but one, yeah, before the other month. I mean, that's, that's not a lot. I mean, can you commit to a press conference before the end of the month? We will commit to directly engage with the voters that are actually going to decide this election. And that is going to be a complete with rallies, with sit down interviews, with press conferences, with all the digital assets that we have at our disposal, all

Adam CurryAdam Curry

the digital assets, which means Walt's interviewing on x. That's great. That's what a fantastic move. Their best they are. You can't blame them. That's pretty good. Whatever works, yeah. I mean, it's on x, so it's like, will it be a spaces like that, like the the Elon, Trump spaces,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

the Elon trying to get a word word in edgewise. We trying to get a stammer in edgewise. We could

Adam CurryAdam Curry

have predicted that, that there would be some technical issues that I feel kind of bad, and I didn't even consider it was going to be a spaces. I thought it would be video like, oh, it's space. Spaces suck. I've never liked them, you know. And, and I think the curry Dvorak consulting group would have warned for, you know, hey, set yourself. You see, the problem with the space is you can't do it from a.

Computer. You can't do it with a pro unless you have a microphone stuck into your phone, because you can only, you can only speak on spaces if you're using the app. You can't do it on a web browser. So you got Trump bent over his iPhone, you know, talk and of course, Hey, man, Elon used AI to make him sound slurry. No, no, no. It just, it sucks. It that's the if anything, it was a bandwidth constraint. It stepped down to lower, to a lower sample rate. I mean, I have a little example of it here.

Unknown

Well, I think we will. I'm pretty sure we will. And congratulations, because I see you broke every record in the book with so many millions of people. And that's an honor. We view that as an honor. And then you do want silencing of certain voices. He

Adam CurryAdam Curry

sounds like Calacanis, because you don't want Satan.

Unknown

Usually those are voices that

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

doesn't he sound like. Callaghan, you're not. You mentioned it constructive,

Unknown

oftentimes constructive, and so we have to consider it an honor. But congratulations and breaking every record in the book.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

What record? Every record in the book. So we got a million concurrent listeners. Whoop dee. Doo. I call that a fail. That was, that was not, I mean, you know, he wanted 80 million or whatever. Apparently there was a denial of a distributed denial of service attack, which I can believe now and that that that makes that could be anybody, of course. But the insinuation from this next clip is it was the Biden

administration. Elon Musk is slated to this is a guy from the WaPo, journalist from the WaPo in the press brief briefing with Jean Paul, Abdul Pierre Van Dam and and he it was quite interesting that he even asked this question.

Unknown

Elon Musk is slated to interview Donald Trump tomorrow, tonight on x I don't know if the President is going to feel free to say if he is or not, but I think that misinformation on Twitter is not just a campaign issue. It's a, you know, it's an America issue, American issue. What role does the White House or the President have in sort of stopping that, or stopping the spread of that, sort of inter intervening in that? And some of that was about campaign misinformation, but you know,

it's a wider thing, right? Yeah, no, I know you've heard us talk about this many times here, about the responsibilities that social media platforms have when it comes to misinformation disinformation. Don't have anything to read out from here about specific ways that we're working on it, but we believe that that they have the responsibility. These are private companies, so we're also mindful of that too. But look it is, I think it is incredibly

important to call that out as you are you're doing. I just don't have any specifics on what we have been doing internally as as it relates to the interviews, and not something that I'm tracking, and I'm sure the President is not

Adam CurryAdam Curry

tracking, so that you know that kind of

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

what she she's complimenting the guy for, for for demanding a reporter, for demanding censorship,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

it's great.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

What is wrong with these people? It's

Adam CurryAdam Curry

the season of reveal. All shall be made known to

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

reveal the reveal. They're idiots. Yeah,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

for us, the reveal was already there. But for a lot of people, they're like, oh, wait a minute. I think some people are seeing it, not many. I

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

don't think so. I

Adam CurryAdam Curry

don't think the mask wears I saw in my travels over the past few days really will know. I mean, just we still have family members who believe that Trump was never hit by a bullet. You know, Where'd you hear that? MSNBC, oh, okay,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

gotcha. That's fine. I want to play while we're on this side of things, I want to play the latest attempt by the MSNBC CNN folk to promote Camelot. Okay, and this is the use of the term vibe. Have you started hearing this? This is from they've switched over from cuddly, all these different kinds of super cuts that we hold

Adam CurryAdam Curry

on, hold on. I'll

Unknown

bring this guy. It's a bird

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

super cut. That's

Adam CurryAdam Curry

a super cut. The Super cuts are the best way to show that the media is in lockstep. They're just they are beautiful. I have not heard this one. Did you put it together. You got it from from somewhere.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

I stole it. Oh, good from people who steal from us. Yeah, here we go. The way I see it. That's the way I see it. Here's here. This is the vibe supercut.

Unknown

There is a vibe. There's a cultural shift going on here. It's heavy on vibes. And so far, it seems to be working. You. Tax just aren't sticking. The bully's power starts to shrink, and the new kid changes the vibe on the playground. You now see Democrats smiling. There is joy in our party. This Harris waltz ticket is like a moment of joy that allows us to heal the trauma and get to a different space.

One of the great achievements of the Young Harris walls candidacy is they popped that balloon and now he just looks like a boob.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

He's got a vibe.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Well, allow me so they continue this, the vibe thing. Every time I run in one of these super casino, they had this joy. There was vibe, there was cuddly. They've been using these different terms. They always assign one of the anchors to take it to the limit,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

yes, and it's always at the end of the super cut. The last

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

time it was mad Owen, she was going on and on about something. This is Katie Tur This is Katie to taking, taking her cue. She's on MSNBC. She's terrible, she and by the way, she's also a she's what I call and I've seen this with other people. They can only get so far with this. By the way, she's a Lunger. You have your complaints about people. You know the, I can't remember the one you like to call him something. Do you have a Puerto for this puker? Puker, yes,

puker, this girl's she's a Lunger. And so as she speaks, she jumps, she moves toward the the camera. She lunges. She's constantly lunging at the cameras, like, Hey, back off lady. Yeah,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

that's a good point.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Yeah, she's a Lunger, and she, here she is. She's going to go off the deep end with vibes, and then she's going to just, she's going to talk about it, and then she's going to talk about Trump, and she's literally going to lie. It's all

Unknown

about the vibes, on the economy, crime, the future, the politics of and politics itself. Weird vibes. Month, those vibes, or a bummer for Democrats, says on we about the top of the ballot was dragging down the rest of the ballot, but now that President Biden stepped out and VP Kamala Harris has stepped in, the vibes flipped. Now the Democrats are riding high, big enthusiasm and big new numbers and all of the polls that

matter, including a brand new one. We'll bring you in a moment the most significantly VP Harris has taken from Donald Trump, his biggest political asset, his ability to ride on a wave of personality over policy, relying on a magnetism that so bewitched his voters it didn't matter to them what his positions were, which was good because he kept flipping and then flopping and then flipping again on a whole host of meaningful policy.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

What you kept flipping them flopping

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

on a whole host of flipping and flopping is Harris.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Here's what I'm seeing. Trump appears to be zigging to their zag. So he is now slowed down, and he's doing a lot of press conferences from Mar a Lago from the living room. He keeps pointing that out by saying there used to be a big, beautiful couch there. Now you are there. And he's doing policy speeches with a low tone, low energy, low tone, talking about economy and border consistently. He seems to have taken this, this cue from them, like, Oh, you're going to do that. Okay,

I'm going to do this. And I think it's an interesting turn of events, because now they are the say nothing, big crowd, wow, which, by the way, it's working, because you just get on any social network people like, man, they're all flipping out over it. Like, who cares? Now, I know the M 5m chooses, likes to think they choose our leaders, and this might have been the way to do it, but, you know, it seems like Trump is not playing into

their card. I have it. I have a super cut as well, which plays along with the vibe this one's a little more obvious,

Unknown

battleground momentum, new numbers showing the Harris wall ticket is gaining ground. Vice President Harris, gaining momentum, momentum in some key states this morning, Vice President Kamala Harris, gaining momentum, gaining momentum, gaining momentum, gaining momentum. But look this momentum, this momentum, keeping the momentum. Harris is momentum. Harris is momentum. You can't slow down the momentum. This remarkable momentum. Mission number one is create the momentum and then keep the

momentum. What does momentum look like in the polls? Kamala Harris is doing two things here, number one, momentum and number two, momentum. But take a look here. Clear momentum, momentum. It is momentum. It is Democrats ride a wave of momentum. Have that momentum the Democrats are riding. A wave of momentum, generating a kind of momentum. The Harris team is going to want to keep this momentum, keep the momentum going. They want to keep that momentum. The momentum here is amazing. The

crowds are literally insane. This momentum, it just seems day in and day out, to keep getting more powerful by the day. The trend is heavily towards Harris, and it's rushing towards Harrison. It's rushing. This

Adam CurryAdam Curry

trend is momentum, unbelievable? No, it's very believable. It's great. It's so

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

unbelievable then and we just believable, but it's unbelievable that, yeah, you think that they could do better than this? No,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

no, no. This is, this is what you call talking points.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

I have a super cut. Oh

Adam CurryAdam Curry

no, hold on

Unknown

for this guy, it's a bird

Adam CurryAdam Curry

super cut, another super cut. We're super cut heavy, ladies and gentlemen, what's your super cut? This

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

is the cut the camel super cut from her speeches.

Unknown

Good to be back in Pennsylvania. It really is good to be back in Wisconsin. It is so good to be back in Michigan. I am clear the path to the White House runs right through this state. And listen, I am clear the path to the White House runs right through this state. I took on perpetrators of all kinds. I took on perpetrators of all kinds. I took on perpetrators of all kinds. I know Donald Trump's type. I know Donald Trump's type in this campaign, I proudly put my record against his any day of

the week. In this campaign, I'll tell you. I will proudly put my record against his any day of the week, are you ready to make your voices heard? Ready to make your voices heard? Are you ready to make your voices heard?

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Go, Team. Go. Beautiful. It's beautiful. I it's a great time to be a podcaster and to be able to sit back and just listen to it all it's I find it very enjoyable. I'm having a great election season. How's your election season been? John? Are you enjoying your election season? Definitely

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

distressing.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Now, of course, Miss Harris is she does have her issues when she's speaking publicly, she comes up with fun gaffs though

Unknown

Trump accusing Harris of stealing his proposal to end taxes on tips, which he announced months ago and she adopted over the weekend, eliminate taxes on tips for service and hospitality

Adam CurryAdam Curry

workers. Hospital nobody

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

caught that. Hospitality workers. I heard them that being clipped all all over the place, and nobody picked up on I heard immediately, yeah, of course, hospitality. I

Adam CurryAdam Curry

even looked it up, just to make sure that it wasn't an actual word. It's hospitality. So I want to do a few more Harris things, or Harris related things, before we check out Trump, because he has been doing some interesting stuff. First, ABC had a chat with Charlemagne, the god. This is the if you ain't black, you ain't if you don't black, thank you. With with Biden. Here he is talking about Tim waltz, the vice presidential nominee pick for for nominee, what do

Unknown

you think of the Tim Walz pick? You didn't mention his name just then. I didn't know him. Yeah, most of America didn't know I just found out about him for the last couple of weeks. At first, I was a little bit disappointed, like I knew she we we knew she needed a dei hire, right? We know she that she needs so Tim walls is the DEI hire on this ticket. We know diversity, equity, inclusion. She needed a white male to make America comfortable. It is what it is. No need for us to, you

know, act crazy about it. You know what it

Adam CurryAdam Curry

is. Yeah, nice. Now, that's Charlemagne the God. Of course we could go to let me see. No, let me do this first. Let me go. Let's stick with ABC. Because the thing that is great about JD Vance is, not only does he get asked to do interviews under the under friendly fire, he does them. So he goes on CNN, he goes on ABC, they invite him on, and I think he does a pretty good job. We

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

commit to that. Yeah, I was just gonna say, I was just gonna say. I think he relishes it.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

What do you mean?

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

I think he really enjoys taking Flack. He's almost like a Marine in that way. Good

Adam CurryAdam Curry

point. Good point. Yeah, he does, and he stands, he's

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

got a smile on his face, and he's goes after him and he gives him grief. And I've

Adam CurryAdam Curry

got to add, you know, I need to ask some of our makeup professionals, is he really wearing a mascara, or are his his eyelashes just that dark? Because it's a very odd look. I

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

you know that I had a guy, there was a guy in high school that had that look and and he had because everyone was always thinking, it's called, it's called guy liner, by the way. He never wore eyeliner. He had two sets of eye of eyelashes, two sets behind the scene so they reject double eyelashes, and it made it may look like that. I think that's what we're dealing with. Guys.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Hey, man, he's just hairy. Okay,

Unknown

he's probably got back hair. We commit to this race to kind of sticking to the facts. I mean, I heard Donald Trump Give, give this speech in Montana. He just gave, and he said that Tim Walz has signed a letter letting the state kidnap children to change their their gender, that allowing pedophiles to claim, you know, I mean, it to be exempt from crimes. I mean, this is not true. It's not remotely well what President Trump said, and I haven't watched the whole

rally, what said was not true. What President Trump said, John is that Tim waltz has supported taking children from their parents if the parents don't consent to gender reassignment. That is crazy. And by the way, Tim waltz gets on his high horse about mind your own damn business. One way of minding your own damn business John is to not try to take my children away from me. State to kidnap, save of children, to change them. How would you what I just explained to you, I would

describe as kidnapping John. He has absolutely done this stuff. It's not crazy, John, come on, it's not. You should not. You should not be able to take people's children away from them, and if you disagree with decisions about gender reassignment, yes, he has proposed that John, He absolutely has.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

So this is an interesting role. If this is exactly what Trump needs, he needs a translator. So when Trump says he signed a law to kidnap children, which, of course, everyone understands exactly what he's talking about. But the mainstream has to the legacy media needs to feign this. The legacy

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

media looks at it says, Where does it say that? Where's the word kidnap in there, which

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I have to say, not as an insult, but you're a little bit like that. If I say you bumped your mic, you say, No, I bumped the stand.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

You're right. Well, I'm from that, yeah, from there. You just figured that

Adam CurryAdam Curry

out. Eureka, here's here. Now we go to Dana Bash, who I think gets flustered.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Oh, she is so flustered. But this is a good clip.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

This is on CNN State of the Union with J Eddie vans. He's hairy, but I think

Unknown

Kamala Harris clearly owns the policies of the Biden Harris administration, especially when we consider the fact that, as we've all learned over the last few months, Joe Biden clearly isn't capable of doing the job. And so I think that drives home that Kamala Harris really has been the one calling the shots. I mean, how could she not? I think Joe Biden doesn't really know where he is. Kamala

Harris has been calling the shots. Says who? Well, I think she has to have been right, because if she's not calling the shot standard than who is, and I do think it drives home something that's fundamentally dishonest about the way that Vice President Harris and also a lot of senior Democrats have approached this, if you remember, for for months, even years, the argument was that Joe Biden was sharp, he could clearly do the job, and the minute that he performed poorly

in that debate and he became political dead weight, you have Kamala Harris and everybody else trying to throw him overboard. But I think the more troubling question is, why did so many senior Democrats, including the Vice President, cover for him, and if Joe Biden wasn't capable of doing the job, as even a lot of Democrats say now, was Kamala Harris in charge, or was somebody else in charge? And that's a real, real issue. There's no evidence that Kamala Harris threw him overboard.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

No, I'm sorry. There's no evidence. Just saying, pulling out, no

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

evidence. Guy, he got a he's a little he's got a law degree from Yale, if I'm not mistaken, yes, well, he's, so he's got the chops to do this. He

Adam CurryAdam Curry

sounds like he sounds like a pundit. He is, well, he's,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

but he's doing it in a lawyerly ways. In other words, he's making arguments that that are that the kind of things that to get the jury, which is the audience. He's working the audience, and as he works against the bash, was flustered by him. Did

Adam CurryAdam Curry

he specialize in prosecutions or defense? What kind of idea I have no idea was he let me see. I

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

should probably look into it. But he definitely has the chops, and he's got different shops than than Trump, but he's but he is also like Trump. He's a chatterbox. He

Adam CurryAdam Curry

was the editor of the Yale Law Journal with a Juris Doctor degree. He wrote for David frums from Forum website under the name JD Hamill, apparently, and of course. He's a writer. He wrote Hillbilly Elegy,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Hebrew. He has the he's running

Adam CurryAdam Curry

circles around Dana Bash. That's what's happening.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

He really is. I can see why they don't like this guy. He's a little bit he's like Trump with a lot more going on. Well, he

Adam CurryAdam Curry

keeps coming and still say, Yeah, I'll be there. Yeah, no problem. I'll show up. Do you believe

Unknown

Kamala Harris is black? I believe that Kamala Harris is whatever she says she is, but I believe, importantly, that President Trump is right, that she is a chameleon. She pretends to be one thing in front of one audience. She pretends to be something different in front of another audience. Look, Dana, she's not running a political campaign. She's running a movie. She only speaks to voters behind a teleprompter. Everything is

scripted. She doesn't have her policy positions out there. She hasn't answered why she wanted to ban fracking, but now she doesn't. She wanted to fund police, but now she doesn't. She wanted to open the border, but now she doesn't. She should have to answer for WHY. She presents a different set of policies to one audience and a different set of policies to another audience. And I think that's what President Trump is getting at. This is a fundamentally fake person. She's different

depending on who she's in front of. Again,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

he's translating Trump. Yeah, this is, that's a great strategy.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

That's a good catch, too. Yeah, he simplifies Trump, yes, for the for the weak mind when the feeble minded don't get it before they don't have a sense of humor?

Adam CurryAdam Curry

No, no, of course. And he is, he does. He is laughing when he says about Trump saying she's black, he just laughs at it. It's It's beautiful to see. I think this clip kind of shows the difference between what the Harris campaign, Harris waltz campaign, is doing, versus Trump. So she's out there. Look at my crowds. Now, he did fall for it. He did fall for the it's aI he did that, or whoever's

running his truth social. They did fall for that. But then quickly stop realizing, Wait, wait, this is not going to work. We just we that we got to stop with someone said to Trump, stop with the crowd sizes. Go back to mar a Lago. Go to Bedminster. Do your slow, calm press conferences. Talk about issues only, and

Unknown

former President Donald Trump will be in Bedminster New Jersey to host another news conference following his rally in North Carolina on Wednesday, the President and the Democratic presidential nominee will be side by side on stage today in their first appearance since Biden's re election bid ended. Their focus will be on efforts to lower prescription drug

costs. Then tomorrow, Harris will be in the battleground state of North Carolina to lay out her own economic agenda, which is said to include a plan to tackle inflation and lower costs for the middle class. Meanwhile, Trump will be back at his golf club today to hold a news conference taking questions

from the media for the second time this week. This week, the economy taking center stage in the race, as Trump also laid out some of his plans for the economy and his North Carolina rally on Wednesday saying there would be no tax on Social Security and says his administration would slash energy costs as it planned to alleviate inflation and ahead of the Democratic National Convention next week, Trump's campaign says It plans to offer some sort of counter

programming. Harris is presidential campaign is also launching a $90 million advertising effort over the next three weeks. It's her campaign's largest yet investment in messaging to voters with just two and a half months until election day, all

Adam CurryAdam Curry

they're salivating. 90 million bucks coming up. People stand by. It's incoming.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

May have a clip on this 90 million. The this 90 million, they're spending everyone nuts. There's a lot of money. It's to get as much out there as you can, early enough to get the because people are going to start the voting starts like the, you know, next week,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

the early voting, yeah? So, yeah. So

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

they're gonna, they're pushing to get people to stupidly early vote. Do you have before they find out anything bad about but, you know, this is like the Hunter Biden laptop situation, yeah. Do

Adam CurryAdam Curry

you have the 90, 90 million clip?

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

I don't know that. I do.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I don't see it.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

You have a, well, I do have a Trump Harris economy clip that. Let's

Adam CurryAdam Curry

do that. Let's do that. Trump Harris economy, gotcha, former President

Unknown

Trump today outlining his economic agenda in the battleground state of North Carolina. This comes before vice president Kamala Harris is set to lay out her economic plan. Friday entities, Iris Tao has more from Asheville, North Carolina, former President Trump on Wednesday giving a speech about the economy right here in the battleground state of North Carolina, which he won in 2020 by just over one percentage point. At the top of his agenda here is to lower inflation and

talk about how to end tax on tips. Yes, on my first day back in the Oval Office, I will sign an executive order directing every cabinet secretary and agency head to use every tool and authority at their disposal to defeat inflation and to bring consumer prices rapidly down. We'll do it very rapidly. No tax on tips. Okay? No tax.

A Trump speech on Wednesday comes just before vice president Kamala Harris is set to lay out her policy agenda on the economy this upcoming Friday in Raleigh, North Carolina, the two are already getting into an increasingly heated debate about the economy. A new report on Wednesday shows that inflation has now dropped to 2.9% the lowest level in about three

years. Kamala Harris's campaign is taking credit for that thing that is the result of the work by President Biden and Kamala Harris, adding that in her upcoming address, Harris will address how to make the middle class be better economically, and also how to take on greedy corporation.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

So this is what's interesting is, and I'm sure that that Harris and waltz will also say no tax on Social Security, which, by the way, is pretty outrageous, that Social Security is taxed. So what, what they could get into is like, well, and I'm already seeing articles similar to this saying, well, there's really, there's not much sunlight between the two. You know, Trump and Harris, they're kind of saying the same thing about the economy. So why don't you go for the lady? Might

as well go for the happy person. There's no difference. They're going to give you the same policies. There is a version of that floating around. I can feel it. But the one thing she cannot compete on is energy prices, because that's a fund unless, well, she could. The fundamental difference is drill, baby drill versus wind power. By contrast,

Unknown

I'm announcing today that, under my leadership, the United States will commit to the ambitious goal of slashing energy at electricity prices by half, at least half. We intend to slash prices by half within 12 months, at a maximum 18 months. And if it doesn't work out, you say, Oh, well, I voted for him. I still got him down a lot, but we're looking to do it. We're looking to cut him. And

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

what is that? What

Adam CurryAdam Curry

is that hedge? It's like, well, you know, I did say I'll get it done by a lot, but maybe not everything, but you'll still like it because you voted for me, and

Unknown

we think we'll be able to do better. And every single thing that I promised, I produced, every single thing drain

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

the swamp. The

Unknown

Swamp

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Mexico, pay for the wall. He does never have

Unknown

had energy so low, as you will, under a certain gentleman known as Donald J Trump. Have you heard of it? He's

Adam CurryAdam Curry

uh, unfortunately, he came close. We have been saying for months. We have been saying for months, the only name fitting for Trump to use for vice president Harris is cackling Camella. That is the name it would stick. It would work because it's uncontrollable. She may have PBA. Now that I think about it, remember that that illness? PBA, we there's a there's

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

a bell, but I don't remember PBA. PBA, listen, don't

Unknown

call it depression. Call it by its real name. Don't call it crazy. Call it PBA, pseudo bulbar affect. PBA causes frequent episodes of uncontrollable crying or laughing in people with brain injuries, for neurologic conditions like stroke, dementia or MS for a free PBA fax kit, call 1-800-575-5238, or go to PBA fax.com you'll learn the science behind PBA. So that was

Adam CurryAdam Curry

the laughing disease. PBA, I forget who?

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

I don't remember that at all.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Oh yeah, yeah. Well, anyway, so he gets so close and fumbles the ball on the one yard line. Just

Unknown

remember, she goes to work every morning in the West Wing. Her desk is 10 steps from the Oval Office. She cast the tie breaking votes that gave us record inflation, and for nearly four years, Kamala has crackled as the American I haven't heard that laugh at about they keep her off the stage. That's right, she's disappeared. That's the laugh of a crazy person. I will tell you, if you haven't done too crazy, she's crazy.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Cackling. Come along, not crackling. Do we not speak clearly enough?

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Yes, it's a mystery. Do

Adam CurryAdam Curry

you think he'll, he'll correct it. He has to correct this. He has to correct it. Something

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

about cackling camera that I have to say at this point, because it's been going on for so long, and that's what everybody calls or including the parody guys who do His voice, they all use it. He must have something about it, it personally that he doesn't like. Oh, that's the only thing I can assume. No,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I know. I think he's just slower. This is not Trump from 2016 he's slower. He's slower on the ball. He's clearly, there's a lot of distractions going on him. You know, Trump's

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

getting shot. Someone tried to kill him. Other stuff happened and help. And he's

Adam CurryAdam Curry

older. He's just older, and I think he's losing a little bit of the touch. But then again, here he has JD Vance coming into to translate the New York

Unknown

Times. I wanted to ask you about the latest economic news from this morning with inflation now being under 3% the lowest rate since mid 2021 what is your sort of reaction to that news? Well, I think the crowd reaction says it all. Look when they say that inflation is down, they mean from a baseline where groceries are already 30% more expensive than they were when Donald Trump was president. And they're not saying it's coming down, they're just saying it's not going up as fast as it was

three years ago. That is not a reputation or a record to brag on, that's a record to be ashamed of. Why did it take them so long to get inflation to where it is, and why are prices so high. It's because Kamala Harris failed to do her job. So if they want to go around, and this is, you know, it's funny, Kamala Harris, on the one hand, will say, Wow,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

he has a bit of Cruz in there too, a little bit of Ted Cruz. Must say, you know, it's funny. That's, that's a Ted Cruz ism right there. Their

Unknown

price is so high. It's

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

because, stop a second. Ted crew would not know what school did Cruz go to Yale? We should look that up. But because whatever school he went to, Ted, Cruz's was at the school he went to was the debating champ part. You went to Harvard, okay? He was the Harvard debating. She was the, the best debater in the school. So he has techniques a masturbator. He was a masturbator. And so he has techniques that are, I think, are generally used by those

schools. And I think that it just was something that he picked up. So it's not, he wasn't copy. He's not copying Ted Cruz. He's copying the model? Yes. Well, Harris

Unknown

failed to do her job. So if they want to go around, and this is, you know, it's funny, Kamala Harris on the one hand, stop,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

stop again, you got to back it up a little bit, because right there not you mentioned Ted Cruz. That sounds exactly like Ted Cruz stammering. Yeah, stop, stop sign as much as funny, whenever you say, you know that that whole, that patter that he just did, extremely Ted Cruz, their

Unknown

price is so high it's because Kamala Harris failed to do her job. So if they want to go around and this is, you know, it's funny, by

Adam CurryAdam Curry

the way, it's not funny that that's that's the travesty of it. It's not funny. Kamala

Unknown

Harris, on the one hand, will say, on day one, we're going to tackle the affordability crisis. And like I said earlier, Kamala Harris has been the vice president for three and a half years, and I think, ladies and gentlemen, she's, in effect, been the acting president, because we all

know Joe Biden is at home. There it is. She's been the one controlling government policy for three and a half years, she says she wants to tackle the affordability crisis on day one, and then on the other hand, she'll say, Well, we've already got inflation under control. Well, which is it? Kamala? Which is it? The simple truth is, American credit card debt is getting higher. Americans are finding the basic necessities in

middle class life less affordable. Americans are becoming especially young people are becoming poppers in their own country. If we don't do better our young generation, they're not going to own anything, they're not going to have anything. They're going to be renters in the country that their parents and grandparents built. Inflation is a disaster. Kamala Harris does not have a leg to stand on.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

So now I'm now, I'm realizing this is very interesting. I don't know if it was strategy, but Vance, horrible pick. Oh, I'm sure Trump is hating it right now. He's dumb. He's an elite he's an idiot. He has sex with the couch. Bring him on. Bring him on. Well, we'll Whittle him down to size. Oops, they can't, because he's he's good. He's good at it. And speaking of the economy, fact, he's

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

better than imaginable. Yes, he's about as good, I would say, listening to these clips at least, and then comparing him to Cruz and debating style and. Fact that he's a lawyer, I don't think you could do much better than that.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

And so to try and massage the economic numbers and make it sound good, you know, don't get too excited. They bring out Bernstein. Do you remember Bernstein, the chair of the economic the Council of Economic Advisers, do you remember that guy?

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

No, I don't this. You'll

Adam CurryAdam Curry

refresh your memory.

Unknown

The US government can't go bankrupt because we can print our own money. It obviously begs the question, Why exactly are we borrowing in a currency that we print ourselves? I'm waiting for someone to stand up and say, Why do we borrow our own currency in the first place? Like you said, they print the dollar. So why? Why does the government even borrow? Well, the, so, the, I mean, again, some of this stuff gets some of the Do you

Adam CurryAdam Curry

remember him now,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

yeah, he didn't handle this very well.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

No, he didn't. But let's bring him out and talk to the press. Does the White

Unknown

House at this point think that the inflation problem is solved? The momentum is certainly in the right direction. Inflation is reliably coming down. We have a record of disinflation, meaning slower inflation that is now 60% or a little bit more than that, off of its peak. And so this is a consistent trend that's moving

in the right direction. No victory lapse, as I tried to assert in my comments, our work is not done, because even as we get inflation back down to pre pandemic levels, we still have to be mindful that too many families are facing too many high costs.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Okay, blah, blah blah, so to bring the blah blah guy out who doesn't know anything really can't explain any of it, and then comes this Whopper, this. I loved this. This is from Yahoo financial news. Turning

Unknown

to the presidential election here, former President Trump saying at a press conference in Florida that the President should have more say in the Federal Reserve's decision making when it comes to interest rates, I feel the president should have at least say in there? Yeah, I feel that strongly. I think that, in my case, I made a lot of money, I was very successful, and I think I have a better instinct than, in many cases, people that would be on the

Federal Reserve or the chairman. So what could this mean for the central bank moving forward? Yahoo Finance, the senior columnist Rick Newman joins us with more. Rick, help us make sense of this. The concept fills me with dread. I don't know about anybody else, but it sounds, frankly, like a terrible idea to President. Have more say in the what the Federal Reserve decides. A

Adam CurryAdam Curry

question, doesn't the President appoint the the the boss of the Federal Reserve? Isn't that a presidential appointee? Yeah? So,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

I mean, all is actually selected by Trump, yes.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Isn't it stupid to think that the President doesn't have a say?

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

I guess? Yeah, it's kind of dumb,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

yeah. But I think they're trying to launch and you know he's gonna agree with you. Probably, oh, you know it's Oh, Trump. He's trying to

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

dread, a sense of dread, yes, yes.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

So the only person they could bring out, and by the way, Pete Buttigieg, don't look too closely at his lips. He looks like he has the M pox. He's got these little bubbles on like little white lesions on his lips. It's once his lips, yeah, once you see, you can't see good. It's very, very it's not, it's not pleasant to look at. But they bring him out, and he launches into something new.

Unknown

There's something I think much bigger, not at the beginning play here, which is I watched that interview and watched JD Vance present himself as suddenly very particular about precision in speech and very concerned about honesty. He's running with Donald Trump, somebody who has set records for lying in public life. He just gave a press conference where fact checkers estimate that he told 162 distortions or lies that, frankly, is just impressive in terms of being

able to physically do that. It's like the Olympics of lying. So maybe just because it's Sunday morning, I can't stop thinking about the scripture that says, How can you look at your brother and say, let me take the speck out of your eye when you have a plank in your own eye.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Now this is this got my attention. Oh, now all of a sudden we're quoting scripture, but Pete Bucha judge, and indeed, if it wasn't enough to go after the the tax on tips, and I'm sure the the. Big Pharma and I'm sure the tax on Social Security. No, no, we need to go after the Christians get the Evangelicals on our side. We begin

Unknown

tonight with Evangelicals group that, in a surprising twist, is mobilizing support, surprising twist, for the Kamala Harris presidential campaign. One group, evangelical Christians for Kamala Harris, released a new ad highlighting that time Donald Trump told the family leadership summit in Iowa that he does not ask God for forgiveness.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Oh, no, bad Trump. Have

Unknown

you ever asked God for forgiveness? That's a tough question. I'm not sure I have. I just I don't bring God into that picture. I don't evangelical Christians for Kamala Harris was not on anyone's bingo card for 2024 because most people assume evangelical is synonymous with conservative. It's not. There are plenty of evangelicals who reject the mean, selfish version of the religion that follows Jesus the Christ. Red Letter Christians think Bishop William Barber, friend of the show who

is wait for it, any evangelical Christian? Think of the Christian pastors who led the civil rights movement. Think rev Sharpton. Not all Christians are the evangelical white dudes with main character energy from The Handmaid's Tale. Ah,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

hold on. This is new. The Christians are all bringing

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

in the handmaids keys written by what's, what's in that woman who is an atheist at what? Atwood, yes. But so

Unknown

it's Christians for Kamala. But this most surprising election does keep delivering surprises. Even some white evangelical Protestants are fed up with Trump.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

So it's, it's white versus black. Now, okay,

Unknown

that is a group that gave him 84% of their national vote in 2020 they're not alone in tiring of his act. Wait

Adam CurryAdam Curry

a minute. I thought evangelicals and Christians don't vote. What did she just say here? That

Unknown

is a group that gave him 84% of their national vote in 2020

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I guess they guess they're voting now they're not alone

Unknown

in tiring of his act. A separate group Christians, okay?

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

What kind of language is in time they're not alone in tiring of his act. This is like that you ever get the spam call where they they ask you to hang on because Comcast has some sort of a deal and then the language is all botched. No, she a native English speaker. You're

Adam CurryAdam Curry

racist. They're

not alone in tiring of his act. A separate group, Christians for Kamala, had a Zoom meeting last night that included leaders from several progressive Christian groups urging supporters to get behind Harrison walls. Call it divine intervention, or perhaps lots of Christians are just getting fed up with being associated with the hateful vision of Donald Trump his Bible stunts and religious hypocrisy, and are fighting back with a counter narrative to conservative

evangelicals overwhelming support for Trump. These groups say the conversation on faith and spirituality has been hijacked by the Christian right. Hijack

Adam CurryAdam Curry

been hijack. Jesus has been hijacked.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Everybody been hijacked by Christians, bastards. Now, I

Adam CurryAdam Curry

didn't clip it. It was too long. Of six minutes. Nobody

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

watches this show of hers. Why she even on the air now, people say hateful, hateful, hateful person. She's terrible. But

Adam CurryAdam Curry

what was interesting, and again, I didn't clip it, but there's a six minute, I guess, kind of mega, mega, super cut of black pastors going on and on about Harris telling them to get on the Zoom calls. I mean separation of church and state, anybody? I mean seriously, it's just like, what? And they just go, oh yeah, oh yeah, we got to vote for Kamala. What is this? Is okay now, it wasn't five minutes ago?

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

No, so, and that's the group that bitched and moaned the most, yes.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

So there they are, really doing everything they can, which, but, you know, it's the white evangelicals, the white white we're the racists and the wrongies. We're the baddies. It's it's the black ones who are good like rev Al. Sure,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

that's a nice try.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I guess we should talk briefly about the the Trump Elon spaces. We already talked about the slur change. Talked about a little bit, yeah, but there's, there's some more to talk about. MSNBC brought on some dude. Oh, he is, and it seemed like the thing they're most worried about. And he just, I mean, you'll hear him lie within two. 15 seconds, what

they're most worried about is Elon's reach. He's got such reach and all his mis and disinformation, people will start to believe it, unlike what anyone else is doing in legacy median

Imran take us through what Elon Musk is doing and the theories as to what his motives are. Well, unfortunately, I can't tell you what's in the heart of any individual, but I can tell you what our researchers have been studying with Mr. Musk's own output on his platform x, we examined posts about the US elections that he'd posted between January the first and July the 31st identifying 50 posts that independent fact check is found to be false, 50 posted accrued 1.2

Adam CurryAdam Curry

billion views. And I just need to say, really, since Do we really believe these view counts? Come on. I mean, view counts for the advertisers are two seconds, which is what I presume they're using for all view counts. YouTube does it, I'm pretty sure X does it. And it's like, oh, it is 1.2 billion views. Really, you really, really think it's that much. And there were three main

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

actually, that funny thing is, if it was that much, the polls wouldn't have a Camela and Trump neck and neck like that, yeah, but

Adam CurryAdam Curry

that's for advertising. That's that's how we get $90 million in advertising. It's a close race, people. It's a horse race. Well, yes,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

dude, no, that's our basic thesis. Is that the whole thing is scam extract money from these dummies. It's an accrued

Unknown

1.2 billion views, and there were three main categories. There was an AI generated fake video of the Democratic nominee Kamala Harris. We had 100 million plus views, which

Adam CurryAdam Curry

was a parody. It was funny. Everyone's ever no one thought it was real.

Unknown

There were claims that Democrats are importing voters, the great replacement theory a really, really dangerous lie that has led to bloodshed on American streets, at the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh. It's the same conspiracy theory that led to the Christchurch massacre in New Zealand.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Okay, stop. You're telling me that because Elon Musk tweets something about great replacement theory, which I don't think he said that, but okay,

Unknown

no, I

Adam CurryAdam Curry

don't think he's ever brought it up. But okay, that they're importing voters. Yeah, I think that's a valid because I think there's no doubt about so that motivated the Christ Church master, not the same thing? No, that was, that was a Muslim.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

It was completely different. So in a different country, why would the great replacement theory, which applies to the United States, have anything to do with what's going on in New Zealand? It also applies to Europe, still not New Zealand. Oh, yes, Europe, yeah, Europe and the US, but not New Zealand

Adam CurryAdam Curry

in the vein of the truth, wants to come out. BBC ready to kick off a story about the interview into the conversation the space between Elon and Trump. This news model says it all.

Unknown

The billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk is due to interfere interview the Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump on the ex social media network. So

Adam CurryAdam Curry

what do you really feel? Interfere? Yes, interfere. Yes. It's interfering with election. I mean, uh, interview. It's so Wow. So clear. That's so obvious. Okay,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

it's obvious to us.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

It is, I mean, yeah, let me see of that. Oh yeah, this was the Iran hack. Yeah, we have someone Iran hacked, Trump's systems. Do you know where this hack came from?

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

I never followed up on the hack.

Unknown

The former President's team is blaming Iran for hacking their campaign in June, according to multiple sources, the hackers compromised the personal email account of long time Trump operative Roger Stone stealing sensitive documents from the campaign.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Are you kidding me? Now you're telling me that Roger Stone has sensitive documents from the Trump campaign,

Unknown

please. That's peculiar.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

He probably sent it to them himself. That's that, that right there. Just, okay, so that's bull crap. That's meaningless. They're also, by the way, they're, they're really going after RFK. Um, first we had,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

there's a lot of misinformation about RFK too, that I've noticed. Yeah. Yeah, so for just throwing stuff out there. And then I guess he got kicked off the ballot. New No,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

no. Well, first he got kicked off the ballot, then I thought he got kicked off, then he got back on. Yeah, got kicked off again, yes. And then North Carolina, and he's back on again. But what came out in the New York Times, I think, is a, is a lie that RFK Jr reached out to Harris campaign about administration role in exchange for endorsement. I don't believe that first set.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

I don't believe it either. It doesn't make sense. They they are so worried about that guy.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

They're really, really worried about him. One of our producers, by the way, works in one of the production houses for the DNC, and he says he's creating Democrat delegate shirts for the Chicago show. He says you will definitely notice them. They chose red shirts with gold letters. He says All that's missing is a Trump hat. It is the dumbest thing he's ever seen.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

But actually, it also sounds like the Chinese Communist flag. But I think the idea was gonna look more like that than the Trump hat.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

There you go.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Stars. What he should have said, a big star on there. So it's just,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

it's great. I'm, I'm enjoying every single moment of this. So the

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Democratic Convention, which is starting on, I guess, Monday or Tuesday, yes, I have going to be just a laugh riot. I

Adam CurryAdam Curry

have some clips, and Riot is right. Hey, hey, Chicago,

Unknown

while civic leaders are hoping for the best, they're also preparing for the worst, I'm confident that our plan will provide a safe and secure and secure environment during the DNC, the Department of Homeland Security has designated the Democratic National Convention as a national special security event, like the State of the Union address the Super Bowl, or

a meeting of the United Nations General Assembly. The designation means federal authorities believe it could be a potential target for terrorism or other criminal activity like a mass shooting, a bombing, a chemical attack, or a protest that turns into a riot. United Center sits just across the Eisenhower Expressway from one of the city's busiest hospitals. Rush University Medical Center.

We are on the driveway of the United Center is one of the closest hospitals, and we're preparing for anything, whether it's a mass casualty attack, whether it's a stabbing, whether it's an explosion. Yeah, Dr Nicholas cozy is Rush University Medical Center's EMS and disaster medicine director, there'll be a nurse assigned to predate con triage, and he or she has one question, decon, yes or no since May, he's led 18 full scale disaster drills to be

ready for a catastrophe. In this drill, dividers drop from the ceiling and nurses in protected gear use soap and water to decontaminate those who have been exposed to the chemical agents. We have to be able to have an ability to quickly remove that substance from their body. The Chicago Police Department is assigning 2500 officers to the DNC, an additional 500 officers from departments across Illinois and Milwaukee, Wisconsin, will assist the CPD and back at Rush.

Doctors and nurses say they know they're on the front lines and are prepared, but they're hoping the worst case scenarios never unfold.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

So I have two more clips in this series. How many people? How many pro Palestinian demonstrators? Because that's what's being talked about. Do you think they expect in Chicago?

Unknown

10,000 Yeah, four different Muslim organizations based here in Chicago gave this press briefing this morning, saying upwards of 100,000 protesters, demonstrators expected in the streets of Chicago just a week from today.

These are three main protests we are talking about that are planned next Monday as well as next Wednesday and Thursday, the largest of the demonstrations, two of them, first on Monday the 19th and Thursday the 22nd that would be the first and last days of the DNC, more than 150 organizations from around the country say they have formed a collective to have these protests be in large numbers, and while they represent a number of different interests, they say their focus will be the

Israeli Palestinian war. They say there will also be meetings with Democratic leaders inside of the convention about the US response in the Middle East, their push is to get President Biden to arrange a permanent cease fire and work toward a Palestinian state before he leaves office. So

Adam CurryAdam Curry

they say 100,000 which sounds like a lot, but i i no reason to doubt it just yet. And they are mad. They're mad. They're already pre mad. So things could pre med Robin and Larry,

Unknown

organizers with the coalition to march on the DNC say their ability to share their message is being hindered. They're speaking out again after getting a letter yesterday denying some of their requests. Now the city granted. Organizers the use of two parks for rallies with restrictions in place. The letter reads in part, quote, no stages or platforms portable restrooms or toilets, tents or canopies or sound equipment may

be installed by your organization. The city defended its stance, giving several reasons, including the items create a public safety risk. The permit office says tents and port A potties can also be used to conceal illegal activities or broken down to become weapons, and also says those pieces of the structures, again could be broken down and used against

people or the police. The coalition predicts 10s of 1000s to March next week for more than 200 organizations across the country, its organizers feel the rules put in place make it impossible to share their messages. Those include calling for an end of US aid to Israel and showing their disdain with the Democratic Party, specifically the Biden Harris administration's handling for the Israel Hamas war.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Okay, so they, they get a dumb route. They get no no place to poop. That'll make you play. That'll make you pre mad, that'll make you pre mad, that'll

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

make you mad. You know, the funny thing is, we, months ago, we anticipated this, talking about the 68 convention where they had a riot.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I put a video in the show notes, like a 10, like 15 minute documentary of what happened, ma'am, that was harsh.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Yeah,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

that was harsh.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

And they had, the key was, as we discussed months ago, was they had to stretch this war out. In the Middle East war, they couldn't have a cease fire, have anything going on that was going to slow it down. So they had to get past the Convention, which I am actually surprised they got that this

far. And they did. They did so it's going to be, it's going to be riot, take all it's going to be very entertaining for people who watch it on TV, which doesn't want to be the best place to be the best places to be there, no, especially if you saw that 68 documentary where they were clubbing, everybody got a club, And

Adam CurryAdam Curry

it it got really bad. It was not good. So I want to switch to Biden here for a second, because he will, of course, be speaking on the first day, which is not the best spot, unless you're going to do something radical. We still don't know. We don't even know which Joe is going to show up. Will it be Daddy Long Legs? Something I don't, I never really put a lot of credence into, is, you know, they're hiring social media influencers to do so well, of course they

are. Of course they are. So, you know, this is something that goes viral. Everyone loses their their minds like, Oh, they're paying everybody's paying influencers. Come on. Of course, they're doing that. Here's an example. Just

Unknown

the other day, I received an email for a paid promotion. Paid for me to make a video and post it on Tiktok, talking about the Democratic side. At the end of this email, it says, If you want to get things going, we'll send over an NDA for you to sign, and we'll get started. I know a lot of people get their views and their opinions and their beliefs based off of what their favorite influencers are saying. Just know they might have been paid to say the things they're saying. Okay,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

right? Well, of course they're doing that. And hello President vide. President Biden paid a visit to the White House creator economy conference. No, it's not evangelicals, it is the influencers, and I think they were already given their NDAs, and he spoke to them, and I want you to listen, because I'm hearing something new from this Biden, and I'll stop it once. I've heard it a couple of times,

Unknown

and I think what you guys are doing, and it's not the national press, they're good people. They don't they're not that crazy about me.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

What he's chuckled in this is the national press, they're good people.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

No, that's, that's not what I'm what I'm going after. Listen,

Unknown

they don't they're not that crazy about me, but I like them. But they'll tell you I'm putting words in their mouth, and they're going to write about how I'm wrong, but they'll tell you how things are changed, how things have changed. There are no editors anymore.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I am hearing dentures. I'm hearing dentures go. I'm hearing them clicking in his mouth. Never heard this before, and once you hear it, it's hard not to hear it. And so this will be a distinction between this Joe and any other Joe. And I don't I'm not even sure if this is Daddy Long Legs or not. There's

Unknown

no editors anymore. You want to get your new you want to get your name in the news. You want to get a click. It's not always best to get it by doing something positive. And by the I'm not being facetious. These are really bright, smart, decent people, but it's all to. Means, I hope you all thought about the consequences of what you're about. You're undertaking what it means, and what presumptuous may sound like a preacher, but what obligations you have to do it on the level. Do it on the

level. So, for example, when I do this thing tomorrow. Hope a couple of you show up, because it really matters. It's how we explain to ordinary people who are busting their rear ends.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

This, to me, sounds like the real Joe. Yeah, it

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

does to me too, because he does a couple of emphasis words he uses that very common. I want to say this on the level thing. So you go in there, you sign an NDA Right, right off the spot, right at the beginning. Once you sign an NDA, you're not on the level, of course not. And they cannot sign. If you're a journalist or even an influence or whatever, you cannot sign one of these NDAs. You just don't do it. And what was I think I saw, I think I've signed. What did I ever

sign? I may have signed. Yeah, I signed one when I quit me video, really? Oh, we got you there, didn't we? Well, what was gonna do? Anyway, it was just, it was not really. An NDA was a non disparagement, yeah. Oh,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

sure, sure. Which you've not really held to.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Well, I was a non disparagement, thinking I got money. Oh, more. I was gone by then, five grand or something. Just wow,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I was gone by then, crap. I

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

didn't get anybody. I

Adam CurryAdam Curry

didn't get any money. No, NDA, no, nothing. But let me play the second clip, because this is the end of this visit at the Creator economy conference, and he and Biden says, Okay, I'll take any questions from you influencers, from you creators, not a single one asks a question, no. Instead, the M 5m who's apparently plastered all over the place, just start yelling questions, and you can hear the handlers going, Okay, thank you, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye. It's,

it's, I found this to be entertaining. Now,

Unknown

my staff always told me this, any non press you're gonna non press one ask me a question you can ask I may not answer it.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

This is so the original Joe. My staff always tells me, any donated I can't take a question from a non press only. I may not answer it, non press, but I

Unknown

like to stay on topic. I don't want to get into talking about what's going on in foreign policy and the like right now, but if anyone asked what I've said, I'm happy to touch others. I'm not talking to you guys. Yes, yes, I'm not going to answer your question. I'm talking to them first, the audience not talking

Adam CurryAdam Curry

to you. Mainstreamers.

Unknown

Inflation, Mr. President, yes, yes, yes. I told you to have a soft landing. We're going to have a soft landing. My policies are working. Start right that way.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Joe is talking to the press. Get everybody out.

Unknown

Mr. President, do you know your son reached out to a US Ambassador about Burisma. Thank you on this plan. Thank you so much.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

So what you heard there from one of the main streamers, I believe, to be a pressure tactic on Biden that they have now launched to keep him in line, because bro, bro, Joe, Joe, bro, you better do what we tell you during the convention, or we're going to go after your

Unknown

kid. There is new controversy surrounding Hunter Biden this morning related to his business dealings when his his father was vice president. The New York Times is reporting that Hunter Biden asked for help from the U S ambassador to Italy as he sought to make a business deal in 2016 The Times Cited documents and interviews which referred to a deal Hunter attempted to make for a Ukrainian gas company in Italy.

Hunter Biden's lawyer said his client asked various people to introduce a company representative to the president of the Tuscany region. It's unclear whether government officials tried to help.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Is a complete non story, but all sudden, oh Hunter Biden, always in the news again. Oh no, Hunter. This is messaging. This is Hey, hey, hey, hey, calm down everybody. Yeah,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

yeah. I think probably maybe, dude, the more the stuff that comes out, about 100 the more I start to think maybe he was a real player. You know, though, doing these deals here and there, of course, he

Adam CurryAdam Curry

was a player. Of course, he

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

was like, you know, he's just a dumb guy doesn't know. Anything, and meanwhile, he's doing these deals left and right. Yeah,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

he had good deals. Yeah, of course, that's how it works. Do you mind if I, if I, if I steal your three by three and do a three by three? Oh,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

is it? Did Steve send them three by three by

Unknown

three?

Adam CurryAdam Curry

He didn't realize it. Experiment, five, JC, D

Unknown

comparing stories from ABC, CBS and NBC, the

Adam CurryAdam Curry

never ending three by three, he did. I don't think he realized that he sent me a three by three, and maybe he meant to send them to you.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

I don't think so. I think I think he's, I think he's, I've been kicked to the curb. Now you probably complained, I think is what

Adam CurryAdam Curry

happened. No way. It wasn't even listed as a three by three. And I said, Wait a minute, there's three clips on the same topic. It's MSNBC, CNN and Ms. So it's actually not a full It's Alex Wagner, that horrible woman on CNN with John Bolton and then Morning Joe. This is the way, not No way. Did you hear about this?

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

This is a, this is a, not a three by three at all. This is a fringe three by three. Of anything fringe, it's

Adam CurryAdam Curry

a funny three by three. Trump

Unknown

made this very strange claim about a supposed conversation he had with Russian President Putin about Putin's desire to invade Ukraine again. I said to Vladimir, Putin, I said, Don't do it. You can't do it, Vladimir, you do it. It's going to be a bad day. You cannot do it. And I told him things that what I do. And he said no way. And I said way. He said

no way. And then I said way. And then I said party on Vlad, and he said party on Don because this was actually an episode of Wayne's World and not something that actually happened in reality.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

So I guess this is from the from the call, yeah, I totally believe that. He said to Putin, hey, no way you're gonna do that. And Putin went, now, what do you mean? Is he No way? Yeah, way. But this was much of much hilarity to everybody in the mainstream. Trump

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

said, quote, yeah, when it's fringe, these are not mainstream, okay,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

they're still fun to listen to.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

It's not, I'm not complaining about that, but I just think, you know, if it was ABC, CBS and NBC, okay,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

it's different. That's why you didn't get them. Because he didn't, Steve, no, no, the

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

reason I didn't get him is because you scolded the brothers. That's

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Oh, and that's how I talk really? Yeah, that's exactly right. Resemblance is so good. In fact, I went, Hey, man, you're giving Dvorak all the good stuff. Send some to me, please.

Unknown

Trump said, I said to Putin, don't do the Vladimir. And I told him things that what I would do. And he said, No way. And I said, way. And Trump says it's the last time we had the conversation. He would have never done I get along very well with him, and I hope to get along well with him again. It's a good thing, not a bad thing. What do you make of of one, just that story, but also Trump, Trump's argue of how much

influence he has on the Russian leader? Well, I think Trump's making that up. He certainly didn't have that conversation with Putin when I was in the White House. I don't believe he had it before. Then I can't really speak to what came after. But this is another case of Trump making things up that it's hard to prove or disprove. He can say he had some private conversation at a dinner, at a g20 meeting, or something like

that. I don't think it happened, and I don't think that there was really an occasion for Trump to have that conversation, but it fits the persona that Trump thinks he has. It's an incredibly serious conversation, and obviously the Ukrainians are doubly involved. But just to hear it, describing it as, I mean, it sounds like, like two high school girls. I told him things that what I would do, and he's

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

like a high school girl that add noise she's got, she's tossed her adults at a funny kind of a way, she sounds like a kid, way,

Unknown

no way, like two high school girls. I told him things that what I would do, and he said, No way. And I said, way. I mean, it's that how world leaders talk from No, it's not even how Donald Trump talks. It's how he wished he talked, and how he wished he could show that that he's the big alpha guy.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

And then finally, morning, Joe,

Unknown

I know Putin very well. I

Adam CurryAdam Curry

got along. Don't be moaning. We put up with your three by threes all the time.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Oh, now, there you go. Now it comes out. I knew it. I

Unknown

know Putin very well. I got along with him very well. He respected me. And it's just one of those things. And he would, we would talk a lot about Ukraine. It was the apple of his eye. It, but I said, Don't ever do it. Don't ever do it. You can't do

Adam CurryAdam Curry

it. That was awesome. They I was that in the original call, where he went all Satan like, don't ever do it, don't ever do it.

Unknown

But I said, Don't ever do it. Don't ever do it. You can't do it. Vladimir, you do it. Do

Adam CurryAdam Curry

you think that was that? Did they put that in on purpose, or what

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

was I had no idea. Oh, yeah. I mean, it wouldn't surprise me, but, yeah, say that was interesting. Don't ever, I don't hear him do that voice that much, that's for sure. No, but

Adam CurryAdam Curry

this is, this is an audio anomaly. This is not Trump doing it, but it just, I don't recall that, but

Unknown

I said, Don't ever do it. Don't ever do it. That sounds

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

like, you're right. Sounds like you're right. Sounds like they doctored it. Yeah, Madam

Unknown

Mayor, you do it. It's going to be a bad day. You cannot do it. And I told him things that what I do. And he said, No way. And I said, way, the highest level of diplomacy there. Come on, little valley girl, way. Wow. It was apple with Zappa. Moon Unit. Zappa was belly girl, yeah, I think so, yeah, yeah, channeling Moon Unit. There no way. And he's so proud of his relationship with Vladimir Putin just won't come off that position.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Oh yes, really, oh yes,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

it probably kind of those are all MSNBC clips, weren't they? No,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

the second one was CNN with Bolton. That was the only

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

reason I uh, Bolton, yeah. The only reason I say this because I noticed this. This on Fox, on Fox, they, if you watch the five, try not to. And I'm just saying, I'm just, let me finish. If you watch the five, you're watching a warm up show for the gut felt show. Yeah, he practices his gags, and they have the same topics. You go from, you go from the five to Laura Frau Ingraham, Yeah, same exact topics. Then you cut to Hannity. What happened to waters? Water? I'm sorry. I'm

sorry. Wow, boy. Okay. Waters water, same topics, exact same topics. You go to Hannity, exact same topics you go to the gut felt show the same. It's just like they just keep pounding the same topics the next day, same thing as repeat, rinse and

repeat. Yeah, and I sense that they do that. I don't listen to all the MSNBC shows, but it's like, these guys, there's not enough, you know, they say, oh, 24 hour news cycle, just, there's just, like, two hours of news period that you can you do over and over and over for a whole day, then you do the next day. It's just

Adam CurryAdam Curry

pathetic. It's easy to fill 24 hours on the cable channel. Janet.

It's unbelievable. Janet

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

fill a case. Janet, yeah. Janet, yeah. We got back and forth. Apologized that I shoot her out for apologizing,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

you don't apologize. We need this

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

before we're having nothing but fun. This is good. It's very good vibe. Should we just do it? Should

Adam CurryAdam Curry

we just do Israel quickly? Just zoom Israel before we before we move on.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Do I have anything on Israel?

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I don't know. I have a couple which I think there's, there's some things amiss with what's being reported to us.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

I think I have, like, one thing. Maybe I got it, mostly Ukraine today. Yeah, we

Adam CurryAdam Curry

got Ukraine too, but what's your Israel thing? Where is it?

Unknown

I'm looking for it.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I don't see it. This is very professional, you're supposed to say. And I have this thing about Israel and and then I

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

saw, here it is. No, that's not it. Yeah, no, here I got this. No, that's no. The problem is Harris. When I put my glasses on it, Harris looks like hammers

Adam CurryAdam Curry

on the list. That can happen. It happens to the best of us.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

I'm going to change that to Harry ball, I

It's been over eight months of negotiations for a cease fire in the Gaza Strip and Israel and Hamas have yet to make a deal. The US says it's urgent to make a deal now to prevent a wider war. Entities. Jason Perry has the details. Officials are headed to Qatar for high stakes cease fire talks beginning on Thursday. These talks are aimed at addressing

the Israel Hamas war in the Gaza Strip. Officials from Israel, the United States, Egypt and Qatar are expected to be in attendance and us, officials have said the time is urgent to reach a deal to prevent a wider war from happening. President Biden said that if a cease fire deal is reached, then Iran may

refrain from attacking Israel, according to Axios, Iran. Vowed to attack Israel after Hamas political leader Ismail Hania was recently killed in Tehran. Hania was previously involved in the ceasefire talks, and his position as political leader of Hamas has been filled by Hamas leader Yahya senoa, who some believe to be located deep inside a tunnel in the Gaza Strip. However, Hamas said on Wednesday that it would not take

part in the latest ceasefire negotiations in Qatar. Hamas official, Osama Hamdan, said the only way Hamas will participate in the talks is if they focus on implementing the proposal detailed by President Biden in May. The US referred to it as an Israeli proposal, and Hamas agreed to it in principle. But Israel later said that Biden's speech was not entirely consistent with the proposal itself, but how much progress

can be made without Hamas taking part in the talks? The West said it expects indirect talks to go ahead as planned, and that a cease fire is still possible. As of now, it's still unclear whether Hamas will participate, but a State Department spokesperson said Tuesday that representatives of Qatar have assured the US they would

Adam CurryAdam Curry

so absent from this conversation is Trump. He's absent from this conversation and remember he had BB over at the house, yeah, they hung out for a bit, did a little press hit there, and I'm sure some kind of deal was made, like, bro, I got to be the one to solve this. You can't give this to them. And I think there's a lot of shenanigans going on with this. This

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

is the same thing it had with Reagan, yeah, the

Adam CurryAdam Curry

hostages, the October surprise, precisely. But there was something in that clip about urgent. It's urgent. And this is, I mean, I don't even know how this happened. Who ordered the aircraft carrier, who ordered the nuclear submarine, which normally we don't talk about, but, oh, now we're announced. Yeah, I found

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

that peculiar, too, that it's sense

Adam CurryAdam Curry

of urgency is the key here. Well,

Unknown

there were two announcements in the statement from the Pentagon. First, the deployment of the USS, Georgia. That guy, what

Adam CurryAdam Curry

are you moaning about?

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

This woman, she's the from France, 20 years and she talks up with a kind of a thing that goes like this. She never there's, there's all. She's like a Hummer. She just keeps yammering. And it's just a very annoying person. I think we should ban her from any clips in the future. Okay, done.

Unknown

Deployment of the USS, Georgia, that guided missile submarine that you mentioned. And it has to be noted that is pretty rare for the Pentagon, for the US to actually publicly state submarine movements. That, in itself, is pretty significant. There was also another announcement in that statement that Lloyd Austin had also ordered the Abraham Lincoln strike group to accelerate its redeployment to the Middle East.

The Lincoln strike group had already been ordered to relocate from the Asia Pacific region to the Middle East, but the Defense Secretary asked for them to do that even faster. So it gives an idea of the sense of urgency coming from the now, it wasn't clear for either one of these groups how quickly they're going to get to the Middle East, but the message of urgency was definitely clear, and was clear in the statement that said that the US was taking every possible step to defend Israel in light

of escalating regional tension. This was all announced in a readout of a call between the US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin and his Israeli counterpart, Yoav Gallant. And it comes as there have been reports coming out of a new Israeli assessment about the imminence of a possible response by the Iranians, something that was communicated, it seems, by you a Galant to Lloyd Austin.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

So hold on a second. Doesn't the President determine when we go, you know, into a war zone in the region, is it just Lloyd Austin who has a phone call says, oh, it's urgent. I mean, do you know what this costs?

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Can you imagine?

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Yeah, hundreds of millions of dollars is what this costs. Oh, no, it's urgent. It's very urgent. Sense of Where's Biden saying this, where's vice president Harris talking about this? This is not normal. This is the your military industrial base. Moving out of control. Yes, moving assets wherever they want, do whatever. Yeah, we'll just, you know, we got need some more money in the pipe. Money in the pipe people and then this guy, the envoy.

Unknown

We continue to believe that a diplomatic resolution is achievable, because we continue to believe that. No one truly wants a full scale war between Lebanon and Israel, especially not the Lebanese people and the Israeli people. The US envoy Amos Hochstein met with Lebanese speaker Nabi berry in Beirut on Wednesday, after nearly 10 months of cross fire exchanges on the Israel Lebanon border and tensions which reach boiling point recently after the killings of a top Hezbollah

commander and Hamas political leader. Senior Iranian officials have said only a cease fire deal between Israel and Hamas could halt a direct retaliation in Israel, a deal Hochstein hopes

to achieve. Speaker Barry and I also talked about the framework agreement that's on the table for a Gaza cease fire, and he and I agree there is no more time to waste, and there's no more valid excuses from any party for any further delay that hopes for a cease fire dimmed once again on Wednesday when Hamas said it would not take part in the discussions slated to resume in Qatar on Thursday. So

Adam CurryAdam Curry

this guy, Hochstein, I look him up, I would be thinking military guy, you know, CIA guy, no, he's an energy guy. He was in Obama's administration, Assistant to the President and senior advisor for energy and investment. That's what he is under Joe Biden, I'm sorry he was in the Obama administration. Served under Clinton and Kerry at State. He was the Assistant Secretary of State for energy resources in March 2017 he joined tellurin, a private, Houston based LNG

company. Of course, he's on the board of the Atlantic Council, also on the Supervisory Board of Ukrainian NAFTA gas. This. This is an energy guy. This is about oil. This is, and I think it's about the price of oil. They want to either drive it up or not drive it up. I don't know. But what is the energy guy doing as the envoy? Well,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

I was hoping, since you discovered this, that you'd explain it. I have

Adam CurryAdam Curry

no idea, other than it has it has to do with, I would believe he's trying to make sure that oil doesn't go crazy, because that will, of course, increase inflation right around the numbers for the for the third quarter, which would be right around election time. I mean, we have seen oil inch up a little bit, but

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

have the whole market collapse just before the election, and

Adam CurryAdam Curry

that would be good. That would be fun. It doesn't matter. It's all good for the show. And then the other thing is that Egypt, turns out, is not a good actor in all of this, and

Unknown

that may mean, for example, on the disputes about how to secure the Egyptian Gaza border, which, of course, was we've now discovered, the main gateway for Hamas. That's where all the arms and the materials and even the cars and and the tents that went in and out of the country to train they went through the Gaza Egyptian border. How is it going to be

secured? Well, the United States appears to be putting on the table a plan where it would help Egypt seal those tunnels and help and work with the United with Egypt and Israel to set up technology and other ways to monitor that border. So I think we're seeing, number one more a more aggressive position by the

United States and the mediators to solve the problems. And as I said, this time, these Gaza cease fire talks are happening in the context of a potential lot wider escalation, and that danger has also created a kind of urgency may push these talks forward.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Yeah, there's something big happening, something I what I do not expect is Iran to launch anything I don't expect, I don't expect any of that. Just

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

more. Steve for Steve Forbes was on with Kudlow, oh, and he predicted that, or said The possibility exists that Biden is going to quit. Ooh,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

oh, this. But he can he do it on stage? He

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

might. He thinks it might happen at the Democratic National Convention, which

Adam CurryAdam Curry

is what we've been discussing.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Well, we've been discussing that he's going to go on and win his votes back.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

No, we had, I think we had three options. One, I want my votes back. Two

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

keels over. Well, that's right, yeah, it feels over. Or

Adam CurryAdam Curry

three, nothing, which would be the worst if he doesn't

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

so the idea is that he's going to quit, oh man, camel is going to become president. So she can be the incumbent when she runs against Trump, and she's going to start the war with Iran, because she's an idiot.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

No, no, it'll start, and then Trump will swoop in and broker a deal and get the hostages back, whatever's left of them. Apparently, they've blown a couple more up.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Well, yeah, there's a there's any hostages left, it'll be a miracle.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I mean, this is history. Is is rhyming. It really is. It's, there's a lot of 68 in this. I mean, it would, ha, we don't know, but we will be on the foreground. We'll be on the forefront. We'll be right here, yeah,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

and we'll be more objective in these media to be the fringe or their mainstream. They're, they're all fully crap. And with

Adam CurryAdam Curry

that, I'd like to thank you for your courage. Say in the morning to you, the man who put the sea in public hole, say hello to you, my friend on the other end, he won the only Mr. Adam curry money

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

with ship sea, bus to the ground, feet in the air, subs in the water, dames the nights out there. Yeah. Let's

Adam CurryAdam Curry

take a look at our trolls here. Let

Unknown

me count them. Who's in?

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Yeah, we're late in the count, so they got bored. 1890 Yeah, I know, but I know. I'm sorry. We should we should have stopped while we were on a high we can't be doing three by threes that'll drive everyone away. Nah, I'm sorry, but that is still almost 2000 trolls checking us out in the troll room. It's not bad for a little old podcast on a Thursday when people should be working. In fact, we got all and we got all kinds of people working for us, which is nice, working for the

good of the show, which is phenomenal, be working. Yes, they should be working. You can join them. If you're working. Go to trollroom.io, or grab a modern podcast app so you can get alerted when we go live, in case you forgot. I mean, how could it? Just remember Thursdays and Sundays is the no agenda show is what you look forward to during your entire week, especially on Thursday when you're at work, you can get that at podcast apps.com. We operate value for value, which

is really the way to go. Holy Moly, I don't know if you've seen the stories, but Salem, Media Group, big group of radio stations, their core business, fell by 5.2% even after they sold off, I think eight of their local radio stations, 2 million, nearly $2 million decline in local spot advertising, although they did, the numbers were okay because they because of political advertising, which was up 198%

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

No, yeah, now's the time to make the money. CBS

Adam CurryAdam Curry

News Radio, 88 out of business. Getting rid of it in New York, it's gonna become ESPN Sports. So

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

how, of course, can we take Well, I

Adam CurryAdam Curry

mean, you know, they're all relying on garbage, remnant advertising, but the one that is most relevant is people who think that value for value, which is the model that we run on, and value for value means we put it out the show. We expect nothing. We hope you support us, otherwise, you can expect to receive nothing. Eventually. There's no levels, no memberships, no subscriptions. You can do whatever you want. No

premium content, zero premium content. You can send it to us in time talent or treasure the

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

show itself is premium content.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Patreon has now announced that Apple is going to start taking its 30% App Store fee on top of their 8% for all donations that are run through Patreon.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Effectively. How does that work? Well, Patreon

Adam CurryAdam Curry

is an app, and most people use the Patreon app to to support shows, and Patreon has their own billing system. And Apple said, you know, you've been running this for a while, and we're not going to take that anymore, so now either.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

So this is like Apple when they when you have these apps that have collections, yes, payment, payment systems within the app, outside of Apple, yep, that's over. They don't like that.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

No, they say you're violating our terms of service. Either you give us 30% or. Of everything that runs through your app, or we kick you off the App Store, which is going to affect a lot of podcasters, 40,000

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

interesting when did that happen? That

Adam CurryAdam Curry

happened yesterday. Wow. The news broke. Breaking. The news broke. Breaking

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

alert. Yeah.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Wow. Yeah, yeah. So what

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

is, what has Patreon said? Anything about this? Yeah. Patreons crying,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

yeah? Like, hey, what? Yeah. Basically, they're saying, Well, you know, either you eat it and we stay in the App Store, or you don't eat it, meaning the creators, creators, or the or the supporters, because it's subscription based. You know, you subscribe for level to get your premium content, premium content, premium content. That's right, whereas we just give you premium content right there, up front, no

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

level is.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

We are. We are no agenda. We are premium content, exactly. So while I feel bad, I'm very happy we chose for this model.

Unknown

I feel bad.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

You'll feel bad at all. I

Adam CurryAdam Curry

don't, yeah, it just proves that we were right. Almost 17 years ago, we said, you know, this is the only way to do it, any other way you could put anybody else in in between, and it's going to be a problem. That's why we have PayPal. We have stripe. You know, we have multiple ways for you to support the show, MX checks. I was just gonna watch 339.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Here. Let me just do that. Plug. You want, you have a check. You want to send us a check? That's what you wanted to do. Box three is to no agenda show. Box 339, you can rewind this. Box 339, El Cerrito, El, C, E, R, R, i, t, O, California, 94530,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

and it's a great way to do it, because there's only a very small charge for handling the chain, cents total, and you can send them directly from your bank account. In America, at least. I don't know if you can do that from everywhere, but in America, you can set it up and it'll just send a paper checkout. And you can, you can schedule it, you can do whatever you want. It works really, really well. So that's the financial part of value for value, which clearly is needed

because we've got a lot of podcasters in peril. Podcasters in peril, in peril, I tell you, and we're squeaking through once again, thanks to our lovely supporters, which includes our artists, who are diligently working on creating art for this episode. They do it when they should be working now. They're Dutch masters, so they're all, it's, you know, it's like, 8pm 9pm their time. So they are off duty. But there are some in the United States and other territories who work, who are

also Dutch masters. They don't, just don't live in Holland, because that's all we've got, is Masters of Fine Art. And we love having a new piece for every single show. And it was, in fact, Darren O'Neill, a non artist, a prompt jockey,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

a prompt jockey, of high, of the highest order,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I hesitate to tell you that you're banging something.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

It's the bot. Yeah, I am banging something. I can feel it when I'm banging it,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

yeah, though we

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

can hear it, yeah, that's it's just, yeah. Now there's a there's a couple lewd jokes in there. Just he's, I don't think I can let us hear them properly. Just

Adam CurryAdam Curry

let it laugh.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

I'm looking let her go.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Darren O'Neill, uh, tickled our fancy with his clown. Strike your data is not safe at all. Image, we did go back and forth on this. We, in fact, discuss specifically lawsuits. So we really don't want to get a lawsuit from CrowdStrike, but we felt ultimately that the parity value was large enough. Yeah, it

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

was a joke. We're kidding. Yeah. Nanu. Nanu,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

there was, once again, a lot of AI. You kind of liked another Darren O'Neill piece, which was Kamala Harris as a pig, to which I said, come on. Man, come on. Man, come on. Man, we're not really gonna do that, are we? No, we can't do that. That's not that

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

was funny. It was Animal Farm 2024 because we talked about animal farm and then you so it made sense in the context of the show, yeah, but a lot of people thought this art was just junk. The the dare I say that it was because they were discussing it. Yes, this particular one artist goes and does a a kind of a rundown of all the events in order quality. This

Adam CurryAdam Curry

is junk. Darren, junk. Well, what else was there? I mean, keep me. Mean, go to jail. No, not funny. AOL, stuff, which was, well, you

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

had the one you like was the toast clown. Did you someone?

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I did and no, I said you're not gonna like that one. Because gruesome, and you were right. And the other one, and we discussed nestworks, wrong magazine, which you thought was too simple, I think was the term you used. Where was that? This the one up top there with wrong Wired Magazine, wrong magazine. Oh,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

right, right. The Wired Magazine, yeah, you didn't like that one,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

and everything else was just either AI or no good. I mean, stop with the camel AI already. Yeah, we don't. Goodness gracious, no, just not gonna use it. So by the way, bonus clip, CrowdStrike. EULA, the EU law of crowd strike we've been discussing this is under attack. Did you hear the latest news about EULAs? Yes, I did. You want to hear clip?

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

I got two clips here. Yeah, absolutely. The clip

Unknown

is fun. And NYU Langone, physician from plain view, was vigilant, says her best friend when she dined out her severe dairy and nut allergy always communicated it would not only be her that would make the staff aware, it would be whoever was with her, and when we would reiterate, according to her husband's lawsuit, in October at the Disney Springs restaurant Raglan road, the waiter guaranteed certain foods could be made allergen free, and confirmed

several more times, she died soon after from anaphylactic due to elevated levels of dairy and nuts in her system. Her cousin attorney Peter guiltano calls Disney's response shocking and absurd, because years earlier, her husband Jeffrey piccolo signed up for Disney, plus he signed away his rights to sue.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Now this was the most fascinating use of a EULA I've ever heard. Here's the concluding clip.

Unknown

She was stolen from him, and now, in effect, what Disney is doing is trying to steal his day in court, and that's a fundamental right that we all have. Disney cites fine print in the agreement, which requires users to arbitrate all disputes with the company. It claims piccolo also okayed a similar agreement more recently, when he bought Epcot tickets online. This would create

just a horrific and horrible precedent. If you open up your phone, look down at all the services and things that you subscribe to, But legal experts say we're signing consumer arbitration agreements all the time, and courts have ruled them enforceable. Arbitration must be fair and can be cheaper than a jury trial, but you're also less likely to get those big punitive damages that you hear about. You're less likely to get the sympathy

factor. The case could have implications for anyone who's ever signed a user agreement. Usually just call it a bottom and hit, OK. I just like, hit the circle where you accept, and then I just hit continue. I think it's wrong. I mean, people aren't going to be really fine print

Adam CurryAdam Curry

amazing, even if he bought the tickets and had nothing to do with Disney plus and there was a EULA there. I mean, all of this, look at the back of your ticket. If it's a pay gotta go. It's gotta go. This has to stop. We need better abuse.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

This is abuse of the system. It is, it is. These are, these are bull crap. Just have the your kids do the work if you're signing up for Disney, plus have your kid do it because they're under 21 or 18, or whatever the ages. If they're 16, 1514, that's legally not they can't sign a contract. Oh, that's

Adam CurryAdam Curry

a good hack. Actually,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

it is a hack. I didn't do it. My kid did. I

Adam CurryAdam Curry

think we should have some kind of EULA for this show.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

There is one. It's the terms of there's a Terms of Use, terms that we have in terms of endearment, that is on the website that discusses this is quite unique, this

Adam CurryAdam Curry

type of insight and these life hacks you only get from your no agenda show, Surely that is value that you'd like to return and anonymous from Central Ohio definitely thought so, and sent us $1,000 and says, gents, gents, this donation is made in two parts, one of 667 to bring me to knighthood.

our formula is this, we go out. We hit people in the mouth. You.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

You shut up. Slave. Do you know him? Yes,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

I like to do the Ukraine stuff and get it out of the way, good

Adam CurryAdam Curry

idea. Good idea this, by the way, if I can just start us off with a little boots on the ground this 1000 kilometers from what I'm hearing is bull crap that I'm getting videos of Ukraine Special Forces being annihilated on beaches, being blown to smithereens that, yeah, maybe it was 10 kilometers they got, but not 100,000 kilometers, square kilometers. So that's what I'm getting from the inside.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

I have three clips. One is incursion. One,

Unknown

incursion.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Is under Ukraine. Ukraine, I

Unknown

got you. I got you. Ukraine today claims is advancing deeper into the curse region in Russia that says both the White House and State Department continue voicing support for Kyiv as the offensive continues, I expect will continue to stand shoulder to shoulder with our Ukrainian partners, the State Department on Wednesday saying it will continue supporting Ukraine to defend itself against Russia. This comes a week after Ukraine launched a surprise incursion

into Russia's curse region. Russia's emergency ministry released this video on Wednesday showing people being evacuated from a town in cursed Ukraine. Meanwhile, published this video saying it shows the moment its soldiers pulled down a Russian flag and the incursion continues. Ukraine's army chief gave this update when speaking to President Vladimir Zelinsky. Since the start of today, troops have advanced around one mile in various directions. Since the beginning of this day, we've

captured about 100 enemy soldiers. Newly released satellite footage shows that Russia has dug trenches in the region. Russia's foreign ministry accused Ukraine of stalling potential progress in peace talks with their terrorist actions in the course area, Ukraine has, at minimum, put peace talks on pause for a long time. In my opinion, they did this intentionally. Peace talks with an absolutely inadequate enemy is unnatural, but the White House says Peace doesn't depend on Ukraine.

This war can end today. It could if Russia would stop the war, the war that they started.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Okay, I love that. Every report has that flag being taken down. Oh, there's proof. Look at the flag.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

That's pretty lame. Pretend we have John Pierre Van Dam making a conclusion that as if she knows anything, let's go to part two of this clip.

Unknown

Meanwhile, the governor of the Russian bogorot region says the situation continues to be extremely difficult and tense. Bogorot is next to cursed where Ukraine launched a surprise incursion last week, there are daily shellings by the Ukrainian Armed Forces, destroyed homes, injured and killed peaceful civilians. Therefore, we have decided to declare a regional level state of emergency. The governor says the state of emergency will help to provide more protection.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Okay? And now, okay, I did, went nowhere. So let's go to the you, yeah. Then I think if I don't have a third clip,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

well, I have two clips, what appears to me that is happening here is the long show predicted demilitarized zone is being created. And I think some of that is apparent in this clip,

Unknown

keys incursion that's rattled the Kremlin marks the largest attack on Russia since World War Two, and a significant progress in the Ukrainian war effort. After months on the back foot, progress, President Zelensky is pleased about I thank all our warriors, every Sandra of ours, every sergeant, every officer who defends our country. Our advance in the Kursk Region is going well today. We are reaching our strategic goal.

According to Ukrainian authorities, it aims to establish a buffer zone in Kursk to protect its own border communities from shelling, as well as building humanitarian corridors to help Russian civilians, Kyiv says its troops have advanced into 1000 square meters of the Kursk territory.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Oh, now it's 1000 square meters.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Oh, that's always been 1000 square meters. I've never heard

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I am so sure I heard 1000 kilometers. No, I've never heard this. Oh, one. 1000. So that's literally a kilometer. Yeah,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

the previous report also said a mile. So it's similar, no,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

but okay, and whilst Moscow has acknowledged the Ukrainian, oh, a mile is 1.8 kilometers, it's not similar.

Unknown

That's similar. It's double. Moscow has acknowledged Double. Double

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

be two, not 1.8 closer.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

It's closer to double. That is to similar. Okay,

Unknown

ask territory. And whilst Moscow has acknowledged the Ukrainian gains, they insist the advance is smaller than Kyiv has claimed. Russia's Defense Ministry attests it had repelled Ukraine's attempts to push deeper, and released images purporting to show fighter jets at work, as well as footage that it claims shows captured Ukrainian soldiers.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

So when you say this is our strategic goal, and it's to create a buffer zone that, to me, says set up for demilitarized zone, no one else seems to understand what they've done other than this. Yo, Oh, wow. It's going well, it's really good. It's fantastic. Good work. Vlad no

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

vlog, by the way. Just for your information, one mile is 1.6

Adam CurryAdam Curry

1.6 You're right. I was wrong,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

still I was not right. I said one

Unknown

okay, but

Adam CurryAdam Curry

this is the big news, which has meaning. German

Unknown

media are reporting that prosecutors here have issued an arrest warrant for a suspect behind the 2022 explosions on the Nord Stream gas pipeline. It is believed that the Ukrainian man was one of the divers who allegedly

planted explosive devices. Two underwater explosions were registered on the Nord Stream pipelines off the Danish island of Bornholm in September 2022, months after the start of Russia's invasion of Ukraine. The pipelines were supposed to bring Russian gas into Europe, but were not in operation at the time of the blast. So

Adam CurryAdam Curry

the story goes that private businessmen funded this shoestring operation,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

including this is just, this makes zero sense.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Oh no, it doesn't but, but this line does. This was funded on a shoestring, as a shoestring operation done from that that stupid. They call it a yacht, but it's basically some sailboat which was overseen by a top general president, Zelensky. Reports say, approved the plan then tried unsuccessfully to call it off. In May of 2022 a handful of senior Ukrainian military officers and businessmen had gathered to toast their country's remarkable success in halting the Russian

invasion. Buoyed by alcohol and patriotic fervor, somebody suggested a radical next next step, destroying Nord Stream. Now what is interesting is the Dutch newspaper. Newspapers are reporting this morning that the Dutch Ministry miv, it's the CIA. The Dutch CIA intelligence services knew that this was taking place. And here's, here's, this is the giveaway.

After the downing of MH 17, they say the Dutch set up a very sophisticated intelligence network in Ukraine and Russia and and this is all from the Wall Street Journal reporting, by the way. And so they knew that these guys were plotting this and planning this. So all I can take away from what is being reported here by Deutsche Bella, a direct line to US intelligence is that they just want to pin it on Zelensky. Maybe they're worried about something coming up in a debate or some other

place, but they needed to stop the story that it was the US. It was Biden, literally Biden, who said that he was going to do it. We haven't forgotten Biden. By we have the clip. He's Let me see. Do we still have that clip?

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

What we do? We do, but Nord Stream,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

no Well, probably somewhere. He said that, no, the Norse is not going to happen. We will make sure that that doesn't happen. Not, not, not going to continue. So, you know, this is pinning it on Zelensky, but he tried, he tried to stop it. Nah, nah. I am, as you would say, not buying it. This is clearly pinning it on Zelensky. So we have a demilitarized zone. We have Zelensky being blamed. Stuffs on the move. Stuff is on the move, on the move.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

They I think that's that, yeah, that is that. I have a couple of a clip I want. To play, okay, local news, local news. This is the Democrats in action here in California. And I just found this to be distressing, and I found the rationale for it to be even more distressing. What do you think it means when somebody, some murderer, is put in jail? Yeah, and found guilty and put in for life without possibility of parole. Okay, what does that mean to you?

Adam CurryAdam Curry

It? Well, it depends. Am I living in California?

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Just what does it mean to you? In general, means

Adam CurryAdam Curry

you're gonna rot in jail.

Unknown

Yeah? Well,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

not in California. I want to play this clip. Does the Cal bill? Meantime,

Unknown

lawmakers in the state assembly are reintroducing a controversial bill that allows early release for some convicted felons serving life without parole. The bill creates a process to reduce sentences for offenders who have been incarcerated for at least 25 years. Those convicted of murder could be eligible, but not if they killed a police officer or were a serial killer. SB 94 was moved back into assembly circulation just yesterday without assembly discussion at

the request of San Jose State Senator Dave Cortese. Supporters of the measure say it provides a process for criminals who were convicted before many state criminal justice reforms were enacted. Lovely.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

What's it got to do with criminal justice reform? Criminal justice reform is not to let murderers out who were convicted given a life sentence, specifically without possibility of parole, which is what it is. Yeah, what is wrong with these people?

Adam CurryAdam Curry

It's California. Man, Hey, guys,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

been in too long. Man, let's let him out. But he said, no parole, none. Forget it, life without parole. No, no, no, no, that's no good. Dare

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I ask what this guy look like? What guy, the guy who was sentenced to life without parole?

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

No, no, they're not doing it's not for a guy. It's this is in general. In general. This is a dissembly bill that's been put forth to make it so everybody gets out. Oh, cool. It's not for some guy. It's cool.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

So does that mean they'll be letting a whole bunch of people out of jail soon? No. Well, the bill

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

hasn't passed, but it's a Democrat bill sponsored by Democrats. They're not going to do anything with this until after the election. Then they'll do it, and they actually may not do it, because Newsom is taking a hard line. Newsom seeing the writing on the wall, and he says to himself, self, I don't think Ken was going to win this thing. Doesn't win it. Yeah, I'm up in 28 I better clean up the state. I got four years to do it,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

and I also learned that he needs to clean up the state for the Olympics.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Yeah? La, yeah. In particular,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

yeah. It's going to be the Olympics in 2028 in Los Angeles. They

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

do have events up here when they have the Olympics in LA, I have been to an Olympic event.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

We have, we have the best producers in the universe. There's no doubt about it. So I'd like to read if catches a couple of brief boots on the ground. We also have a lot of TSA agents who listen, and all good, yeah, that's very good. And I just like to share what they said to us, because, and I noticed this by the we were on a trip. We went through San Antonio airport. They are so nice and so just calm and

relaxed about things. There's there's no more yelling. I don't know if that's just San Antonio, but I also didn't probably just San Antonio. It was the same in in Boston at Logan, they were just nice. It's almost like, Hey everybody, here's a memo. Everybody be nice.

Unknown

So that could be Adam and John

Adam CurryAdam Curry

just listen to the show. Heard about the anonymous report from the airport and TSA a couple of things. One, we as officers could care less if people opt out of this, about the about the your picture being taken, which they just slipped in there. I don't blame them, frankly, and would do the same. They are not flagged for opting out. However, there are tons of cameras all over the airport, the machine is just verifying if your ID is real, because these days, you don't have to show a

boarding pass. You just have to show your ID. It connects it to your travel document, so you're in the system two if you wear baggy, saggy pants, a belt or leaf stuff in your pockets, the machine highlights in the groin. It is especially unforgiving to males get pre check. So baggy pants if you don't have TSA, pre check will flag you because you've got something hanging at three. We barely communicate with the airlines at a checkpoint level, and we do not. Watch the people who make

complaints. I think you guys give us way too much credit. Personal opinion after being here five plus years is, this is just the government's job program. The pay is good for what is expected, but most of us understand the show we are putting on daily. Well, that's nice to know,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

yeah, security theater. That's what we've always called it. Yeah,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

it's good then, on the legals, on the legal note, the

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

theater does work with dummies, by the way, so it's not a bad thing, no

Adam CurryAdam Curry

and no, not at all. You had an interesting set of clips on the last show about it was Ritter and Tulsi talking about a chilling effect.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Chilling effect. Yes, this

Adam CurryAdam Curry

is a good note, and this is our producer saying, I hope our constitutional lawyer already sent you a note, but in case he is AWOL, the quote, chilling effect, language from Ritter and Tulsi is a specific legal concept for First

Amendment cases. You can challenge government laws and actions under the First Amendment, if you can prove it has a chilling effect on your speech, ie, made your expression of protected, protected speech difficult, I would assume there's a lawsuit brewing, and that is the reason for the coordinated mention of this legal term. And of course, our constitutional lawyer Rob checked in. He says, yes, the chilling effect language is all over the First Amendment

jurisprudence. Sometimes he says, I wish I could be like the guy they keep at the booth during football games, who explains the referees calls. We need a hotline. Well, you can always hotline. Me, Rob, always. So that's, these are good updates. This is good stuff to know. Then the oh, man, I love your new the sound of your new mic, but poof, it's a banger. I didn't even touch it. Well, you're banging something.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

I picked up a piece of paper, but that banged. So banging is a banging note.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

So we played a couple of pool boy clips of the FBI whistleblower. No, that's right, and immediately concluded that the Pakistani who wanted to kill Trump was one of these six week cycle bonus deals. And wouldn't you know it, the whistleblower calls into Beck and says exactly that. And

Unknown

then the last thing that I definitely want to get to is this Pakistani national. Now this is what I like to call the playbook that the FBI has been running the last two and a half decades, particularly since 911 where essentially what they do to justify their existence as a bureaucracy, as a self looking ice cream cone, they will identify a vulnerable person in a motion to serve, maybe someone with radical intentions but not capable of carrying forward an actual attack without the

involvement of the FBI. They'll identify them, use confidential human sources, use undercovers, and then groom them for as long as it takes to engage, or at least agree, to engage, in an activity that can be labeled as terrorism. And then they will arrest them. And the added wrinkle here was that they imported this Pakistani through the border. They sponsored him arriving, arriving. The FBI Dallas office actually was assignee on him arriving. And it wasn't just to slap the cuffs on

him. They followed him and orchestrated this plot that could never have happened without the involvement of the government for three months and then justify their existence with this big dismantlement stack, which is also tied to their quotas. This is just the eight the FBI version of death and furious, but except with the exception of being guns with the ATF we are now running terrorists so that we can justify our existence as an agency.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

There you go. Those of you who have been listening to the no agenda show for more than a decade will have already known this. That's why Glenn Beck makes $100 million a year.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

He's a hard working guy. He works

Adam CurryAdam Curry

very hard. He's got a great museum.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

I'm going to play this this off the wall clip. I've been wanting to play this clip for a while. This is the especially here from in California, where our students are all stupid. Now, this is a Mississippi reading has increased dramatically in quality.

Unknown

10 years ago, Mississippi's elementary students ranked near the bottom in literacy today, the State House soared to the 21st spot in the nation entities. Dana Monahan speaks with the Mississippi Department of Education literacy director about how the state achieved those results. Mississippi ranked 49th in the United States for elementary

school literacy. 10 years ago, fourth graders were essentially an entire grade level behind the rest of the nation in 2023 85% of third graders passed the state reading test thanks to a shift from balanced literacy to the science of reading approach. In balanced literacy, students are taught to use cues to guess words and then memorize. Them. The science of reading approach uses phonics so students understand how words look and sound as they acquire vocabulary. The

systems of language is explicit. It's systematic. There's a scope and sequence of foundational skills that have to be taught to students that go from very easy skills to more complex skills. And you know, so it's really like that, really direct type of reading instruction, where we're not playing a guest and game. Mississippi Department of Education literacy director Kristen wells win says they created key strategies and an early literacy policy that was very detailed to implement the changes,

we had to go back and retrain all of our teachers. We had to go back and retrain all of our leaders, retrain all of our IHL professors. And so we opened up professional development grounded in the science of reading at all stakeholder levels. And so we offered that free to all educators from the state level. They also put coaching support in place to help classroom teachers take those practices and implement them in their classrooms.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

And it worked.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

It worked. This is something from the 1800s This is phonics. They implemented phonics, which is the way I learned to read when I was a kid. Remember they all sound it out, sound it out. What's the word? Sound it out, pH, you know, is spelled pronounced like an F,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

hook down phonics. Remember that? Hook down phonics? Yes,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

phonics was all and so what they changed to some other screwball methodology. In fact, I looked this up, and there's a, there's a technique called Evidence Based re reading. What is? What is evidence based reading? This is all the weird crap that these guys, instead of the old classics, like phonics, they've they've devolved into this horrible methodologies that don't work, and then they wonder why nobody can read is beyond me. Beyond me. There

Adam CurryAdam Curry

is a note here from the the millennial guys, the millennial show in the troll room. Mississippian here, he says the improvement in the numbers has to do with a change in the assessment method, not an improvement on the scale. It's touted to be, well, that wouldn't surprise me either. They just changed the scale.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Well, I'd like to so in other words, nothing's changed, is what he's saying. I

Adam CurryAdam Curry

find that hard to believe. I think if you go back to the basics of phonics, that you will get a big improvement.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

It seems logical as opposed to evidence based reading. What

Adam CurryAdam Curry

happened to Common Core was

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

the Common Core guy still got in there, and is it added all these complexities that don't work, and I have no idea why they even began with

Adam CurryAdam Curry

it. Millennial media offensive says there was a small improvement, okay, all right, despite the change. Well, that is kind of the trick that the education has been using for years. Is just change the scale, make it hey, my nephew, 18, he just graduated. The whole family is like, That guy should not have graduated. We love Joe we love Joey, by the way, but there's no way he should have graduated. And he's in Indiana, so we know that they just let him go. Let him go.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Well, on the topic of education, let's go to how the British universities are all going broke.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I was not aware of this.

Unknown

Nearly half of British universities are facing budget deficits because of falling numbers of international students. This poses risks to their future and has prompted calls to restructure their business model. NTDs INTERNATIONAL CORRESPONDENT Malcolm Hudson has this report, British universities are facing financial troubles. According to the higher education regulator, the Office for Students, 40% of universities are in a budget deficit. That means they're

spending more than they have coming in. James Tooley, Vice Chancellor of the University of Buckingham, explains why. How did they get into this problem? They became their business model became over reliant on international students. This is the key thing, particularly from China, but from from many countries truly said. Recent visa policy changes have reduced the number

of international students coming to the UK. They used to be able to bring their families with them, but the previous administration toughened rules to stop this, in most cases, as a way to lower immigration levels. And to Lee says the new labor government doesn't look like it will change the policy so this, this really upset the universities. They were reliant on the international students, because they charge

international students whatever they like for price. These are typically fixed for homes to. Students for students from England, and so their complete business model was thrown out of kilter, and this is a severe problem for universities. A report by the University of Warwick and consultancy firm public first recommended creating a fund to provide state backed loans to universities. This $3.2 billion fund would help universities to restructure, to prevent collapse. No,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

bring back the immigrants. There's your answer. Bring them back. Bring back the money. They were all benefiting from it,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

yeah. Well, those days are over. They have the same problem in the United States with these foreign students, especially the Chinese, yeah, but the Chinese, one of the little things that has to be understood is as the Chinese students. And when I was a kid, there we go at Cal there was a lot of Chinese students then, and they were all nationals. Oh,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

man, and I've flown up there in the San Francisco region, but I remember, I think I flew to camp curry. This is years ago, from from San Francisco to camp curry Yosemite, and you're flying around and you ends. A lot of them are in aviation school, and you cannot understand what they're saying. It's dangerous. Whoa, even ATC is going like, Yeah, can you talk slower? I do not understand what you're saying. Not trying to be racist, but

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

a lot of the students, I think that graduated from the even the British schools, Chinese in particular, they've gone back and people their own universities to make them very competitive. There's a lot of no reason for them to necessarily come over here. I think at this point, well,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

there's probably no reason for anyone to go to university at all. Anyway. I'm sure it's just as woke and stupid as it is here. Well,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

here we go with part two. Truly

Unknown

said he doesn't think the government will allow any of the most prestigious universities to go out of business, but they will encourage mergers and acquisitions link ups so that there's a university in town X looks as though it's suffering, then it might link up with another university in Town Y and become the University of x, y. Tooley said British universities should start thinking about how to manage their resources more effectively in the face of a

receding customer base, be it saving money in departments or using their buildings more efficiently and attracting more students too. And he added that universities themselves have contingency plans, so no foreign students if you're thinking about coming to the UK to university, no foreign student should be deterred by anything that I've said or anything they've heard, because universities want you

to come. He said that if anything financially extreme happens to a British university, students will still be taken care of very well thanks to these contingency plans. Yeah,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

go ahead, taxpayers. Fantastic, beautiful. I would like to update us on the latest going on in climate change, because there has not really been room for climate change news because of you know, obviously this existential threat known as climate change is not as important as Trump and Harris much more important, and it's local to you, California. You probably didn't know this. New data shows that our state

had its hottest month ever, in July, ever. For environmental information, published a report yesterday the average temperature across our state last month was nearly 82 degrees. That was almost two degrees higher than the previous record set back in July of 2021 the climate data for our state goes back to 1895 researchers say the record high temps last month here in our state further evidence of human caused climate change. They warn we are likely to see above average temps this

month as well. All of this as we look ahead to the Olympics four years from now, in the middle of July, cooking, cooking. It's gonna be cooking, baby. Gonna be cooking, sure. And then, by the

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

way, the temperature here, seen California, where I am, has been very 68 Yeah,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

yeah, 60. I know, but I look, I look it up, we've had a beautiful summer. We haven't hit maybe two days above 100 It's been phenomenal. And then this NBC report, which was just unbelievable, what a bunch of lies we're

Unknown

back with. Our series, climate challenge research

Adam CurryAdam Curry

is now the climate challenge. The climate challenge.

Unknown

We're back with our series climate challenge researchers along the California coast looking at Hawaii. An alarming number of sea lions and at least two dolphins are getting sick. Liz Kreutz has a closer look. Come on in Liz, in California. An urgent race to save dozens of sea lions showing up sick and disoriented on beaches along the central coast. The Marine Mammal Center is responding to multitude of calls here and rescuing them.

So far, volunteers here have responded to nearly 150 sea lions and at least two dolphins, all showing signs of poisoning from domoic acid, a neurotoxin from algae, that gets into the fish these animals eat, and can flare up during the summer. The Marine Mammal Center says this outbreak has been longer and more intense and to human health as well. Are humans at risk?

There's a risk right now, currently, there isn't a warning for human consumption, but sea lions are the first indicators of that toxin being in the environment. Although there's still much to learn about domoic acid outbreaks, experts say a strong upwelling of cold water and our warming climate are contributing factors. These algae do well in warm environments, and so if we're seeing more of that and an increase in that, then that's

definitely a factor for these events. Sea lions, a sentinel for our Ocean's health. Bullshit.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

It's called the Red Tide. They couldn't even bring themselves to say it. It's the red tide. This happens all the time, cyclical. Did you know this red tide? And on the California coastline. It

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

wouldn't surprise me. Yeah, it's red tie. Also have an urchin problem.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I don't know about that purple urchins,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

but there is a red because of climate change. That's

Adam CurryAdam Curry

what bugs me. And then sad news, very, very sad news from the Copernicus Institute. I can't believe they even released the report. Stand by everybody. The pivot is here.

Unknown

Earth's run of record setting heat has finally ended at 13 months. According to the European climate agency Copernicus, temperatures in July just missed the record set last year.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

What happened to hottest ever in California? Oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no. Its switch is changed. The

Unknown

El Nino weather pattern, which normally warms the Pacific Ocean, spurred the heat streak. Now that it's passing, temperatures are cooling just a bit. Global temperatures averaged 62.4 degrees Fahrenheit. What happened

Adam CurryAdam Curry

to boiling earth?

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

You think the El Nino had something to do with the red tide? Probably, well, they don't ever bring this up. They never make the connections. But the

Adam CurryAdam Curry

global Earth temperature is 62 on average. Where's the boiling

Unknown

full temperatures averaged 62.4 degrees Fahrenheit in July 1.2 degrees above the 30 year average, but not enough to break the previous record. July 22 and 23rd were the hottest days ever recorded in Seattle. The record was set on June 28 2021 when the thermometer topped 108 degrees. Climate change has driven severe weather events like flooding in South Africa, a fatal landslide in Indonesia, and officials say more than 120 people died from record heat in Tokyo. Oh,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

please. I mean, anyone there's the recorder again. Haven't heard that in a while. Does anyone does

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

is actually a cuckoo thing. It doesn't it's only notes. It plays,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

oh, it's a cuckoo thing.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Doesn't play anything else.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Okay? The only other clips I'd like to play, unless you have something, is just like to update us on the AI bubble. It is, after all, my beat. I cannot get off of it. I'm waiting for it to all fall apart. What are you seeing in the markets? What do you see in the markets? Nothing. Well, CBC, the front burner podcast. Brought on this guy named Paris marks, who, I guess, has a newsletter. There's business in

that newsletter stuff. And two clips here, he is talking about the obvious AI bubble that people on the street, Wall Street are starting to see. How

Unknown

prevalent is this bubble idea now? Like, how big is this theory for people who are watching the tech world,

yeah, it's very common. You know, people like me have been talking about it as a bubble for a long time, like me, but it's interesting now, you know, Goldman Sachs had a report out last month, the major investment bank, explicitly calling it a bubble, and, you know, questioning the productivity benefits that would come from it, and saying that, you know, investors can make money from this, but we think it's very

inflated, and that these numbers are going to come down. Sequoia Capital, which is one of the biggest venture capital firms in Silicon Valley, also had a report out recently talking about it as a bubble and saying that these tools need to basically find $600 billion in revenue if they're going to be profitable. The information in a major tech publication was. Recently talking about how open AI could lose $5 billion this

year alone because it's making so little money. But what it's, you know, what it's offering to the public is so expensive to run. So this is becoming, like, a pretty common concern at this point, and I think you've really seen it, you know, gain a lot more traction over the past couple weeks, as we've seen these, you know, challenges in the stock market after these major drops that have somewhat recovered at this point, but they're still concerned that, you know, these things could

drop a lot again very soon. Oh,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

concern, concerning the markets. And this is where I need your feedback, because he now says, this is a playbook. This is a playbook that Silicon Valley uses over and over again, and takes us back to the the.com bubble of 2000

Unknown

How did we end up here? How did it get to this point? Yeah, that's that's a really great question. Oh, you know, I think it's always interesting to think back about the way that the tech industry has structured itself for quite a long time,

right? You talked earlier about the.com bubble, and then you know how that burst in the early 2000s and there's an author, Malcolm Harris, who wrote this book, Palo Alto, where he basically argues that the lesson the tech industry took from that moment, right, that big installation of the values of

tech stocks and then their crash. Was not so much to never do this again, but rather that it was a good model to keep doing, you know, by hyping up a certain technology, getting the values of certain stocks to really increase, and then knowing when to get out at the exact precise moment before it crashes again. And just to kind of keep doing that again and again and again, and that is what we've seen with a lot of

technologies, right? You know, if we go back to the mid 2010s there were a lot of promises about how self driving cars were going to wipe out, you know, a ton of jobs in, say, trucking and taxi driving and all this kind of stuff. And that never really happened, right? We had this significant increase in deliveries now, you know, Uber is still a very popular thing. There's still a lot of people doing that work. Rather, you know, just the conditions of their work changed because of

how the technologies were rolled out. And we've seen that time and again, right? Crypto didn't transform the financial industry in a really major way, and we're not, you know, living in the metaverse now, as Mark Zuckerberg predicted,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

he's full of crap. Guys, it's only full of crap. What was the bubble with the with the self driving cars? Where's the bubble?

Adam CurryAdam Curry

No, that's not what he's not what he's saying. He's saying, what

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

he's saying? Yes, exactly what he's saying. As soon as these bubbles, they come and they go and they get exploited by

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Nvidia. Now, John is a guaranteed winner. Good thing. Go for it. Closest to the pin. Go for it. Go for it. Yeah, I am just waiting for this to happen.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

I don't Well, you can wait. It's gonna happen. It always does, but it's not gonna happen tomorrow.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

No, not tomorrow. It won't happen tomorrow. Final clip for me. This was just the funniest clip that went viral. This is Caitlin Collins from CNN. We're on the Colbert show. Just loved it. Trump has kind

Unknown

of been thrown on his heels by this, and he's not really sure how to go after vice president Harris. He knew his attack lines on President Biden. He really has struggled with how to how to go after someone who's 20 years younger than him, who is a different gender, a different race, race. It's kind of been this moment where he has not been able to coalesce around

a single attack line. I know you guys are objective over there that you just report the news as, oh, I know CNN makes that supposed to be a lab like it wasn't supposed to be. But I guess it is

Adam CurryAdam Curry

the people know, the people are onto it, even Colbert's audience.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Yeah, that really surprised me. Colbert's audience got a kick out of that line.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

That doesn't surprise me, nobody

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

analyzed and said, you know, Colbert wouldn't have even said that if he ever watched. CNN,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

no, that's a good point.

Unknown

Yeah, go. Well,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

he was just, you know, blathering away. Gotta ended up with a laugh line.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Yeah, I love the laugh line. Is that a laugh line? Is that how they talk in cable news? I've got a great laugh line. Everybody? John, you had some great laugh lines in this show.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

I have one last clip. Then, this is the walls. Just get back to the walls of the balls. Balls guy,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

was a producer, producer, Joe and I just a tip I should use myself. Is a really good tip.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Okay, May I May I mentioned, by the way, lots of people love the the wire the wire line tip

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

was, Oh, yes, the wire line tip is the home, yeah, working, yes. People, power line, network power line.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

People from all over the world were just so happy with that tip. They really what's

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

funny about it is that it's an ignored technology that is very efficient. Yes, somehow along the lines. I mean, I remember when it first came out, it didn't work, and it was causing all kinds of issues, and the years went by then, all of a sudden, now it's working at two gigabits. I

Adam CurryAdam Curry

mean, he's crazy. It's crazy talk. Um,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

okay, this guy is great. Tip, turn off fuel efficient routes on Google Maps. Oh, you can look for a video on it, because it's, it turns out that they'll just run you around and fuel efficient that you don't want, that you want the best route, not the fuel efficient route. No.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

So is that something you have to opt out of? Do they automatically?

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Because it's automatically turned on? Turns out they turn it on and send you have to go to your settings and find out you can look it up on a Google on a YouTube video. There's plenty of them just say, how to turn off fuel efficient route on Google Maps, wow, and turn it off. Wow,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

that's a good tip. That's That's right up there with turn off the you know, on X you automatically opted into all of your tweets being sucked into the grok. Ai.

Unknown

Grok, yeah. Did

Adam CurryAdam Curry

you know that? No, yeah, you might want to turn that off in your settings. I will Elon stealing from you. Man stealing. So here's a travel tip. We went to the Boston area Monday for two reasons. One, we went to go see the Doobie Brothers in concert, which was quite a good show, but Steve Winwood opened up. Oh, that's cute. Steve Winwood, who is now 76 years old. This is the XFINITY center in was that Foxborough? I think this 10 or 12,000 people is pretty big

amphitheater. He now, even though it was a little tough for him to get up off the piano bench for playing the the Hammond b3 he kicks absolute ass.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

I mean, did he? Did he show up the Doobie Brothers? Yes,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

we, even though he was, he was the opening act. He does about an hour. He did Mr. Fantasy, which is a classic, uh, classic, classic, with a third of that song is guitar solo. And he did this, I didn't even know he played guitar, and he played that solo. He was just, it was phenomenal. It was absolutely stunning. And I think, I think he blew the doobies away. Now, he blew the doobies away, man. Now, the other reason we went is we had seen this documentary called monumental, and it's

about this, this monument in Plymouth. Plymouth, of course, is best known for the Plymouth Rock. So everyone goes to Plymouth, you can go see the Plymouth Rock, which, believe me, is the biggest disappointment you've ever seen. It's just a rock. And when you read the sign, when you read the plaque about the rock, it's not even the rock. No, it's a phony rock. It's a fake news rock. They got a big monument built around it, and people look at it's like, that's a rock. People

throw pennies on it. Why you throw a penny on the rock? Well, for good luck, this is dumb it's a dumb rock. Then we did take the little visit on the Mayflower too, which is a replica. It actually does sail. But what you want to see is the National Monument to the forefathers. I had never heard

of this. They never taught me this in school, that it's, it's about a mile away from the rock, and it is the biggest granite structure in the United States. And it is, for all intents and purposes, it is the true Georgia guidestone of the United States. And. Coach, and they and the founders, the forefathers, not the founders. The forefathers, came up with this idea. It was completed in 1889 took them 50 years to build some war in the Middle, or something. And it shows the elements of the United

States, morality, law, liberty and education. And when you see this thing, you think, Why have I never learned about this mind? I mean, it's, you know,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

it's even more annoying what I'm the educated one. And you told me you're gonna go see this thing, so I'm looking it up too. I never heard of this thing. It's

Adam CurryAdam Curry

really cool. And it's, it's right in the middle of of a residential area. There's no t shirt stand, there's no IPO beard, no, there's nothing.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Now I'm gonna go see it. It is

Adam CurryAdam Curry

a travel tip that if, if you're gonna go see the stupid rock, go do that, buy your T shirt, but then go to the National Monument to the forefathers. It's an outstanding educational moment.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

and Dr Jill, he comes to search in general, Lady lady lady. That's the kind of up. That's the kind of First Lady, lady, lady, lady who just killed Biden will be. And then all this stuff about Dr Jill. Look, nobody in America who's got a doctorate in education is called Doctor. It's not done, ladies. Time for her to keep calling herself doctor. Just point out she's not a real doctor.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Yeah, so lady. And then he lost his train of thought to pick it up, he said, Lady, at the end of thinking it would happen, then he couldn't. Then they said it again and again. It said it again three times, or four times. Lady, lady, lady sounds like Jerry Lewis.

There are certain professions that, yes, if you have a doctor, you're called Doctor. For the rest of them, you're not. That's the kind of first lady who. Lady, lady, ladies. This Jill Biden will be I want to ask you about a specific kind of gender affirming care, and that is surgeries for minors,

surgeries, surgeries, surgeries, surgeries for minors. I don't think the science is where a lot of people on the trans rights universe say this puberty blocker stuff has real dramatic consequences, and there's a lot of sort of social contagion stuff involved in a lot of this. Five

Signs You might be gender fluid. At least they were for me. 25 states now have laws that bar transgender minors under 18 from having gender affirming care such as puberty blockers or hormones, or in rare cases, surgery, surgery, surgery for minors, the correct term of what I'm going to talk about is called a total hysterectomy with a new correct Me. You don't want to make permanent life changing surgical alterations to people making it possible for them to have kids.

Total hysterectomy, which is correct to me, surgeries for minors. One can draw distinctions between life changing, permanent surgical operation. But if a kid wanted to have his arm cut off the state, we would all agree the state should intervene now that you've had your gender affirming history. To me. What should you expect? Well, in my practice, I perform the surgery with very small incisions that's minimally invasive so that all of my patients can go home the same day and again.

Look and again, look, this is preaching to the choir, but the choir needs to sing. One person's socialism is another person's neighborliness. Just do the damn work. Please. Please do what you can. We're all in this. We're all undefeated. We got an opportunity on this. And again, keep hammering on these guys. Talk to your neighbors. This is transformational for several generations, but we can get out there, reach out, make the case, and for one thing, don't ever, don't ever shy away from our

progressive values. We have communities that are going to pay the price because we don't address socialism. Damn plan. And again, here's the great news, one person's socialism is another person's neighborliness. Thanks, folks.org/n, a don't forget to subscribe. You.
