He'll never shut it down here. He'll keep it rolling for us.
Adam curry, John C Dvorak, Sunday,

September 1. 2024 this is your award winning give our nation media assassination Episode 1691
this is no agenda,

not banned in Brazil, and 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 Northern Silicon Valley, where I want to say, let me be clear. Let me be clear. Happy birthday to Adam. I'm John C vorac. It's crack line buzzkill in the morning.

Well, thank you. Did you? Did you? Did you not respond to your invite.

What invite

you are on the list? Tina said you opened it. She had an open from you. Ah, that's interesting. So you read it, but they didn't register my surprise party.

Well, congratulations, you didn't have a heart attack. That's a plus. No, I

did not it. Man, it's a little concerning when your wife can actually keep something from you for two months and I had no clue.

So you're telling me you're clueless,

completely clueless. But also the fact that Grand Duke Foley was there with his wife from California, Duke of Texas, Gene Rob, the constitutional lawyer, the former New York banker, and his wife, the blood diamond smugglers, the international arms dealer, my full dental team, Sir Mark Hall, Dame Christina Pearl, Charles the Lord King. I mean, it was

Charles the Lord King. Yes,

Charles the Lord King. It was fantastic. It really was It was great. I was very surprised, and I felt very loved John. And everyone wanted to know, is John here? Is John here? And so I guess you didn't know

it just did not fit into the schedule, like, if I felt it was not I got one evite thing, but most of the evite stuff gets put into the spam folder. Oh, yeah, okay, and I didn't. I did open one, and then I never saw it again, and then I kind of forgot about

it. I said, if John's coming, he'll probably roll up just as we're leaving, and he'd be like, turn on. That

would probably be true, because I always get the time wrong. Skirt just happened once.

Anyway, the keeper really earned her name. I've never had a surprise. Have you ever had a surprise party throne? God, no, I never thought I would like it. But, man, I sure did. I sure did.

That was a lot of gifts

I got outrageous. Amount. I mean, just that people showed up was fantastic. I got a lot of gifts. Well, let's

talk about it. What did you get? I got a 12

gage shotgun, short barrel home defense unit. That was a good one. I got this amazing travel bag that's, I

think this shotgun says it all. That's

from my brother, Vic, out from Dallas. Yeah, the shotgun was right up there. No, I mean, just tons of gifts. I mean, I can't even mention them all. I have to thank everybody saying, Oh, it's going to be my first day of vacation, which I'll be working on leave tomorrow from that I thought that was my gift, my my Birthday Trip. But no, this was good. It was it was a Fredericksburg affair. We shut down six twists on Main Street, just for the
just for the party.

You were missed. Let me just say that you were missed. Well, I appreciate that. Yeah, you were missed. Meanwhile, back at home, we're not banned in Brazil yet. No, can't ban us in Brazil. There's no way. We're on. We're on. IPFS, man, there's no way they cannot stop us. We're unstoppable. It's all the podcasting. 2.0 stuff. Have you been following this X band in Brazil, which is just an outrage. It is an outrage. Yeah, really, is it really? Though,

what's the point?

Well, the point, well,

I mean, the Brazilians. First of all, you have to remember the Brazilians are the only ones who adopted that Google. I can just about to remember the name of it, the Google social network that was competing with Facebook back about 10 years ago. God,

what was that called? It was quick jump.

Quickly,

quick, quick jump.

That's the news. Something crazy sounding uh,

or cut, or cut or cut.

Was it or cut? No or or cut?

Yeah, didn't they didn't they buy or cut. They, who's they? Google? Didn't Google buy something

they started this was, I think there was an internal whatever the case was, it doesn't matter. It was hugely popular in Brazil

that was, or that was, or cut it was popular with the with the with the lady boys.

Well, Brazilians, you have to remember, or have to know, that they're extremely sociable. Yeah, it's probably the most sociable place I've ever been. And they'll throw a party for anything and and so their social networks, that would be something they'd really fall into fast, but without but it wouldn't prevent them from being normally sociable. It's not like here, where your son's stuck on the phone all the time, like a teenage girl. It you don't talk to anybody, and you
just glued to the phone, right? That's a little different there. And so they're very concerned about any social media thing, because it could take over the country. Well,

yeah, that's, I mean, they got that, right. So I looked into the story, and there's a couple of interesting angles. Quick clip from Scandinavia, a Brazilian
Supreme Court judge has ordered the immediate suspension of the social media platform x in Brazil, meaning people there can no longer access or use it. Ex owner, Elon Musk failed to meet a deadline set by the court to name a new legal representative in the country. The Brazilian court and musk have been at odds for months, fighting over free speech and for x allowing far right accounts and misinformation on
the platform. The Supreme Court won't bring back the platform until Musk complies with his orders and pays millions of dollars in fines. Musk was quick to react to this news, posting on the platform overnight, attacking the judge that issued the suspension.

All right, so we have some details there. I had to get everything from foreigners. Can't really get anything useful from American M, 5m this is France, 24 with some other details.
The Brazilian Supreme Court Judge Alessandra de Marais has ordered the full and immediate suspension of Elon Musk's social media platform x in Brazil. In his ruling, he condemned the owner of x, saying Elon Musk showed his total disrespect for Brazilian sovereignty, and in particular for the judiciary setting himself up as a true
supranational entity and immune to the laws of each country. The judge on Wednesday said x in Brazil would be suspended if it didn't respect a deadline to appoint a legal representative, as required by Brazilian law, that deadline was not respected.
The round between the judge and the tech billionaire has been simmering for months after X failed to comply with legal orders to block certain accounts accused of spreading fake news and hate messages on his social media platform with a volley of posts saying that, among other things, free speech is the bedrock of democracy, and an unelected pseudo judge in Brazil is destroying it for political purposes. In his post, he compares the judge to Lord Voldemort out of the Harry Potter books.

So there's a lot of misinformation, hate speech, the bedrock of democracy, we need free speech. So I really it seemed like they would just so the reason for the blocking, I don't know if they blocked it, other than they turned off the electricity in Brazil for like, overnight. Oh, just got no electricity. So reboot your routers everybody while we install some blocking software. Oh, that

was your gag. No, no,

no, no. The gag is really, is really. What's next?

I referred to the gag before the show. Oh, I had a gag. Yeah, you said re Have you rebooted your

router? Oh, no, only because a troll said that we're no longer saying, reboot your router. No, no, that had nothing to do. It just came up again. So I wanted to know the sequence of events. What actually happened is it just because of fake news and misinformation and hate speech, and is Elon just standing up for free speech because everyone needs us. We're
wired and Deutsche villa. Take it for what it's worth, because we know who feeds Deutsche Villa the information our own three letter agencies, they gave us some actual detail on the accounts that they wanted blocked. And so this is not atypical for for X, even we know that x blocked several accounts, clearly for political reasons in Turkey at the behest of the Turkish Government. And Elon said, Well, you know, I want to keep operating there. It seems like this was kind of the same,
but Elon just spun everybody all up over four. British bridge X
announced on X that it would not comply with the court's instruction. Here's some of what this

is a Brazilian professor who is the guy's got on the horn here appeared
on the company's global affairs account today, soon, we expect judge Alexander demores will order x to be shut down in Brazil simply because we would not comply with his illegal orders to censor his political opponents. Now these enemies include a duly elected senator and a 16 year old girl, amongst others. So Professor, what is Elon Musk referring to there? He's referring to some of those investigations that I mentioned.
So in this case, there was a senator who was using his account to, for instance, incite the military against the civilian government. In the other case that he mentioned, a profile of a young girl was used, apparently by her father, to dox a police officer who was working in one of those investigations. And so it was in that context that Justice more
guys ordered the platform to bring those profiles down. But Mr. Musk, as I mentioned, is refusing to do that, and he's claiming that this is censorship, which I do not agree with, because, as I mentioned this, these decisions are being adopted in the context of investigations that look into violation of Brazilian laws.

Okay, so that's a little different story, and who knows what's true. But as you said, you know, I'm sure they wanted to stop some politician who was inciting the military to get out on the street, because that seems to work in Brazil and then doxing. I don't think that's cool under any circumstance. So I, you know, I don't know. I'm, uh, I'm on the fence about this. It's certainly being played as Elon. He'll never shut it down here. He'll keep it rolling for us. We're
safe. We're safe. Don't worry. Please pay no attention to jacorino and her twin in the background, twiddling the dials. So I don't know. Man, I don't know. And I'm surprised that our own M, 5m didn't come out and say, Yeah, you know, just like, uh, Trump was blocked for inciting an insurrection. So yeah,

little iffy, little I don't know who is controlling the narrative here in our media regarding this, it's not played well. Satan

is controlling the whole media. Come on. The media in America is, is it's just become tedious. It's so stupid and boring. Well, it's actually, it's humorous for us, but for people. I mean, are people still watching the M 5m I guess they must be

the numbers. Are there?

Something must mean

they're not what they used to be. No, you want to look at numbers. You go to a football game, you know? You see some numbers? Yeah.

That's why the Kelsey brothers are making so much money, apparently.

So I guess brothers

that, and, you know, he's, he's dating Taylor Swift. I'm sure that doesn't hurt.

I'm sure that's, that's the main marketing movie could make. Yeah,

they could make.

So probably double, double teaming, or,

you know, football and Okay, so Meanwhile, back here in the United States of America, all eyes on America, because we got the most important election of our life coming up our lifetime. Nothing matters more than this one. This is the one. Aren't you glad that you're we're still alive, and I can say this, yeah, it's

fabulous. Nothing in history has ever been like never today. It's

It's so tight too. It's tight, then you have no seriously,

it's tight. Every time we've, we've been doing this show for 17 years almost, and it's always been tight, tight. This is always been tight.

Our fourth presidential election, tight, tight, tight, tight. So

when the money starts flowing in one direction, they make it tight in the other direction. Coincidentally, how does that work? I

don't know. It's, it's, it's, I'll

tell you how it works from the industry perspective. Look, hey, look, Trump spent spending more money than you guys, and now look, he's getting higher numbers. You better start ponying up, or it'll

be tight. Be tight. So vice president Harris and Vice President Elect, elect nominee waltz did their interview on CNN. I think it does warrant some some deconstruction. I think you and I both saw right off the bat, what was wrong about this? Well, let

me be clear.

Please

do that was it? That's all I have to say.

Why was she sitting on a kindergarten chair?

She looked like a little kid. Who

styled this and for what read was this sabotage. I

think it was incompetence. I think is, I think it is, I don't think it needs to be sabotaged. Personally, I think that they're an incompetent group. They don't know what they're doing. She's always wearing these dumpy pant suits. What is the who, who's styling her

well, it's to be fair, the the pantsuits are there to hide things, including the the there's other

ways of doing it. These are very dumpy pantsuits. There can be style. If you had Armani or somebody styled a pant suit, it would, yeah, still be a pantsuit, and could still hide what you're trying to hide, but it wouldn't look like a dumpy, cheap, not even, you know, like a Ross pant suit. It's just that, plus the fact that she's sitting on a what on the floor. Also, the

lighting was very poor, because lighting was terrible. Her, I mean, we're just coming at this from television production standpoint, because we have a lot of experience with I would have stopped this. Anybody with eyes to see would have said, Hold on a second. Tim, you need to get on the kindergarten chair, because you look like the Jolly Green Giant here towering over her Dana Bash had the lighting. Dana Bash, I did the same thing. Kamala did. Dana
Bash. Dana Bash had the lighting. She had good lighting.

And we did have good lighting, right? Was

this a cafeteria or what? What was the supposed

to be? A diner or something? There was no casual location. It

looked like it was in an apartment building.

What's the point? Exactly?

It made no sense. It wasn't casual. It's looked very uncomfortable. It's uncomfortable dark,

yeah, it dingy. It was emphasized her little girl look. She's down low to the ground. Oh, you

think that was the idea, let's make her look like a little girl.

That's what it looked like. Where

was JJ Abraham?

Think that was the idea, though. I think it's just base incompetence. Nobody knows the basics. You had all the head levels are supposed to be the same in these in these three shots, but you got to

presume that CNN set this up to see is CNN now completely incompetent as well?

Well, if you, if you're thinking that they brought over somebody that knew that they were doing at CNN, and they let it happen like this, I'm wondering. We don't know behind the scenes what was going on. It could have been all Camela people telling them what to do, and with the CNN people going, okay, whatever you want. You're editing it. Just

imagine, madam, Vice President, you look fantastic. This is a perfect shot. This will really go over well. I mean, JJ, Abrams did the DNC, they couldn't give him, like, get an extra day out of him. They got money, money, you know,

hubris note here is, you have to assume that you needed JJ, Abrams. Hey, you know I did TV, and when I was in high school, and we had a little TV studio, and I've done this. I know what I'm doing. No, it's

better than that. Hey, I do a podcast. So I can help. I can help, madam, Vice President, I'm a podcaster. I'm a I'm a tick tocker. Tick tock is better than this. It was, it was pathetic. And then to have on screen live that was

taped. Yes, talk about, you're out about that. You should have put that in the newsletter.

Disinformation. That was live, that was a lie. Was not live anyway.

It was fact. It was what, two days earlier than when they taped it, because it took him two days to edit it down.

Here's before the interview, and this is mainly from CNM. I think there's an MSNBC in there as well. The M 5m, our, our mainstream media was really just totally understanding of of the lack of interviews, because elections aren't about policy. In fact, stating your policy is a very dumb move. No one wants to hear that that can tank you. What people in America want the way we elect our presidents is the same way we choose our breakfast cereal. Vibes, man. Vibes, candidates
don't need us as journalists to get their message out. They don't anymore in this ecosystem, in the media preoccupied with like, how much access, how many conversations is she going to have? I don't know how much that matters. There is risk in talking to us. There's no doubt about that. Then you hear the criticism, oh, she's to do more interviews. She has to talk about policy insiders you're speaking to. They're sort of like, no, yeah, no,
I love you all, but I don't want to talk them to you. All right now, remember what Elizabeth Warren did when she ran back in 2020? She had a white paper for every policy position under the sun, and what happened? She collapsed in the primary. So the belief that perhaps you put more ideas on paper, that's a bad idea. The more details you share, the more your policies are going to get picked apart. Harris has changed this from being a policy election and more of like a movement, a cultural, vibes,
policy, vibes, vibes election. It's a vibes election. This vibes election that we're all feeling right now. It already felt like a vibes election before most elections are vibes elections. I think every election, frankly, is a vibes election. And I think there are really only two vibes that matter in American politics. One is hope and joy, and the other is fear and anger.

Wow, that's that is the best. I'm actually going to give you a borderline clip, because that's one of the better Supercuts I've heard for
a while. Thank you.

So funny.

Yeah, I love that there's only two types of vibes, man, hope and joy or fear. And what was the what was the last thing that said fear and
fear and anger, hope and joy, and the other is fear and anger,

fear and anger and right in lockstep. We've kind of forgotten about our our new CEO of National Public Radio or national treasure. What's her name? Again? Catherine Katie,

no, I

let me Homer second. Catherine Marr. Catherine Marr,

yeah, we did a whole thing on her. Yeah. So

horrible person. Her infinite wisdom to make sure that she keeps her her aging. Listeners, I'm the last person to talk about aging.

Yeah, I just had a surprise birthday for how old are you?

But on Tuesday, I'll be 60. I still feel 15 inside. You still make me laugh with the funny jokes in her infinite wisdom to make, to do her bit for the party. NPR has appointed a joy czar. No,

yes, ah, you caught me flat footed. I

just joy czar. Yes, that's right,

is it? Joy Behar, no, no, no, no, no, no. Joy Reid,

amid the highly charged partisan politics in the US, along with wars in Ukraine, the Middle East, National Public Radio, it's appointed a joy czar to help the broadcaster find more uplifting stories embedded in the newsroom throughout the year, the person will aim to ratchet up our joy quotient. It's now KPI, your joy quotient across platforms. This is from an internal memo. We do not know the name yet of the joy czar, but you can bet that person's gonna have an interesting time.
In fact, we should have that should be a donation level. Joys are, can be a joys are of the no agenda show.

It's, I mean, but you've given me ideas. Isn't

this kind of obvious what they're doing. You know, if we didn't have enough politics of joy and Black joy, and that's

obvious, what they're doing, they're promoting Kamala Harris, yes,

and that's your news. This is, this is our first big move from the new CEO. All right, everybody, I'm the new CEO. I'm gonna fix this place. Here's what we're gonna do when appoint a joys are who wants to be the joy czar? No hands go up on me, not me.

Do you want to just hire the guy or they fired from the DEI position? Oh,

that's, well, you know, that's, that's not a bad idea. We have the joy department. Ooh, Joy Division. There you go. The Joy Division. Wasn't that a Nazi thing?

The Joy Division, it all is a Nazi thing. Strength through joy. Look it up on Google.

Well, they've never actually used that, that slogan,

but doesn't matter. We can say they did.

I mean, Joy Division was a band, clear, to be clear, Joy Division was a band. But I always thought that the whole thing was the whole Let me see. What if I just concert consult the book of knowledge on Joy Division Nazis. Maybe that'll pop up. Let's see what happens. Joy, Joy Division, it's just good. It's just good. Joy Division,

they say, hi, aloha. Do you want to hear a couple K let's play a couple of Camel Eclipse. Oh,

because I have, yeah. Did you get some from the interview?

I think there's one in here. Mike, I'm not seeing it, but I do have one I want to play. Just. Says in a warning, a warning shot across the bow. This was a slight supercut taken from the Kamala versus pence debate.

Oh, oh, that's old. That's very

old. It's very old. It's from 2019 oh, no, no, 2020, and it was, this is what she's up to when they talk about the open mics and the closed mics and this and that. This is just a super cut of her interrupting, or her being interrupted, or claiming to be interrupted by pence. And it, and it, unfortunately, this would be better in video, because she has a she has this condescending, you're an idiot. Look on her face constantly. And this is, here's the clip, Mr. Vice
President, I'm speaking. I have I'm speaking. Mr. Vice President, I'm speaking. I'm speaking. Be important if you said the truth. Vice President, speaking. I'm speaking though. Okay, if you don't mind letting me finish, we can then have a conversation. Okay, please. Okay, fine. Answer you now, do people deserve a straight answer? I will not sit here and be lectured by the Vice President. I'm speaking. Yeah, I'm about to I will not be lectured by the Vice President.

Wow. She she did that again. She was got heckled again by Palestinian pro Palestinian protesters at one of her JAM PACKED events. Yeah, she did that again. It's like, I'm speaking right now. And that's

her whole thing. Her whole bit is Yes, like that. That is wait. You just

heard it, yeah, please wait for the lady I'm speaking right now. And I'm sure that's what the September 10 debate will be. Her saying, miss it. I will not be lectured by a former president. I'm speaking. I'm the vice by

a felon, a fella felon. I know felons. I
know, I know.

I know his type Exactly. It didn't. It didn't take more than 36 seconds for her to bring up Trump at the beginning of that interview. Did you notice that right here it is,
the voters are really eager to hear what your plans are if you are elected, what would you do on day one in the White House? Well, there are a number of things I will tell you. First and foremost, one of my highest priorities, is to do what we can to support and strengthen the middle class. When I look at the aspirations, the goals, the ambitions of the American people. I think that people are ready for a new way forward, in a way that generations of Americans have been fueled by,
by hope and by optimism. Here we go. I think sadly, in the last decade, we have had in the former president, someone who has really been pushing an agenda and an environment that is about diminishing the character and the strength of who we are as Americans, really dividing our nation. And I think people are ready to turn the page on that? Yeah, yeah, we're

ready to turn the page on that. It's really no substance. I was surprised at how non substantive her answers were, even though she was late, led to an extreme by Dana Bash.

Yeah, she gave her a lot of opportunities

and not a lot of pushback on things like the whole Trump says, You black. I mean, it's only 29 seconds, and it was over, and that's it. No further questions.
I was a little bit surprised. People might be surprised to hear that you have never interacted with him. Met him face to face. That's going to change soon, but what I want to ask you about is what he said last month. He suggested that you happened to turn black recently for political purposes, questioning a core part of your identity, any same old, tired playbook. Next question, please. That's it, that's it,

that's it, that's it. Who's in control? Hey, I'm speaking, and when I'm not speaking, that's it.

Now, yeah, that was the clip I actually had. That was a great clip because she she didn't know what to say. Well, she hasn't. She had no no she hadn't even she knew that had to be coming. And she could have probably formulated or worked with people to formulate something that was really clever, yeah, but she couldn't even do that same

person who who staged that whole interview, was doing the answers, I guess, just say next question. There's no pass if. Same presidential interview. You don't get to pass next question, please. I'll pass on that question. Diana, but I have to say she is pretty black. I mean, she is so black, she does this. I
have a friend who had a Christmas party Christmas Eve every year, and she asked me to make the greens for a party every year. And I am not lying to you that I would make so many greens that I'd need to wash them in the bathtub. I'm telling you the truth. So how do you make your greens? You put Turkey in them. Bacon. I do bacon, garlic. I put white vinegar. I do so I start with, I slice up my garlic, but no first I fry
chocolate, then bacon, and get all that fat on. Then I put garlic, some chili peppers, and then a lot of water and a little chicken stock, and I let it go for a while before I put the greens in. And then, right, so you get that going and all that flavor, and then I put the greens in for a couple hours. Then I do vinegar, and then I cheat and do a little Tabasco.
No, that's okay, but Tabasco, of all, like, I like Louisiana hot sauce, but Tabasco has that right amount of vinegar, yeah, and that's so that's how I do my green

Well, there it is. Once you bring in the hot sauce and tabasco, and remember, when people say, I'm not lying, that's the truth. They're lying. It's not the truth. That's always the case. That's what kids do. I'm not lying, but I'm not lying. I'm not gonna lie. Yeah, you are.

If she has to wash that many greens in the tub,

yes, I was waiting for some, some cooking analysis on this.

Thanks. If she has to wash that many greens in the tub. What does she cook these greens? And she must have the pot the size of Manhattan, yeah, the biggest pots you can get on a stove will not I mean, it doesn't make sense the volume, because she's talking about cooking collard greens, or mustard greens, probably collards, because that's the ones you cook for two to three hours, yeah, to get them to soften up,

but wait, she she lets them sit in the bathtub first for a couple hours. That, no,

she never said, really. Said that. Yes, she did. No, she says she washes them in the bathtub. Oh, okay, all right, good point. And the other woman says, when she started talking about the boiling water she's she said a couple hours she she's just eating up the the goo, the bacon and the stuff that's in the water to get it. I don't know what the point of that is, a stump, whatever the case. No, this bull crap. She's no way. She cooks a tub full of green. She'd have to do them in
batches. And she never mentioned anything about doing them in batches, and where would she put the cooked greens? But the whole thing is a joke. She's

not lying. She's not lying. She's telling you the truth. This gaslighting from the M 5m is the best it's ever been. It really is.

I mean, we've definitely going to an extreme. I mean, the walls parted that interview, I know if you have any clips from walls, yeah, I have one. I have one, one clip. And I mean, his whole idea of blaming bad he's a teacher, and he's blaming bad grammar. Here it is,
Governor Walz, the country is just starting to get to know you. I want to ask you a question about how you,

by the way, talk about turn that frown upside down. That guy's mouth is perpetually weighted down by by fishing lures or something.

You know what I mean? I mean he's got that look. Yeah, it's grim.

Yeah. Grim
described your service in the National Guard. You said that you carried weapons in war, but you have never deployed, actually in a war zone. A campaign official said that you misspoke. Did you Well, first of all, I'm incredibly proud. I've done 24 years of wearing uniform of this country. Equally proud

he wasn't wearing the uniform for 23 he worked. He was what they used to be called, weekend weekend

warrior. Yes, he on the weekend. He put the because he was teaching and being football coach and whatever else. He makes it sound

like he was in the army for 24 years. Yes, now I've had several,

uh, several producers write in saying, Hold on a second. No one's really saying what this was. Weekend warrior.
I've done 24 years of wearing uniform of this country, equally proud of my service in a public school classroom, whether it's Congress or the governor, my record speaks for itself, but I think people are coming yet to know me. I speak like they do. I speak candidly. I wear my emotions on my sleeves, and I speak especially passionately of. Out about our children being shot in schools and around around guns. So I think people
know me. They know who I am. They know where, where my heart is, and again, my record has been out there for over 40 years to speak for itself, and the idea that you said that you were in war. So

this was, I think this was set up because Dana, this is not Dana going, Hey, you didn't answer the question. This is Dana reminding him, remember what we rehearsed, remember you got to answer that one. Remember the line,
the idea that you said that you were in war. Did you misspeak, as the campaign has said, I said we were talking about, in this case, this was after a school shooting, the ideas of carrying these weapons of war, and my wife the English telling my grammar is not always correct, but again, if it's not this, it's an attack on my children for showing love for me, or it's an attack on my dog. I'm not going to do that thing. I'll never do this. I'll never
demean another member's service in any way. I never have and I never will.

Has anyone made fun of his dog, or is that it doesn't mean his kid? I mean, does he think his kid is a dog or his wife is a dog? I didn't know he had a dog. Has anyone made fun of his dog? No, no. Maybe they have. Maybe we missed it. Maybe it was an important media moment. We missed anything. You know, I was listening to, and

by the way, he threw that thing out there. He did besmirch Vance for his military service. Early on, he even served. Yes, he did. He's full of shit. This guy.

I was listening to disaffected podcasts with Josh Slocum. Slocum,

I think it is, and the name is what the disaffected podcast a great name for a podcast. It's

a great podcast because this is the whole, this is where I learned about, what's the B thing I learned so much about I forgot already, you know, the mental illness you had to clip about it, the B, the B, the not dimension B, oh man. Why am I like

to see you swinging in the wind? Raise here. This is, this is going to go on for a while. I think

it wasn't vitamin B. Thank you for being so helpful. Troll, bipolar, yeah. But it had a it had a name. It had a name. Yes, it was borderline. Is under there? Bipolar, borderline

personality disorder, yeah, but it was, it was

something B, ah, I feel like an idiot anyway. And he was saying that, you know, he, he comes from a Cluster B, thank you, Cluster B. You're the one that had the clip about Cluster B, remember,

but you were saying B, B, B, like. It starts with B, no

Cluster B, I heard it from him first, okay, and, and he said that he observed the the the arm yank that waltz did on stage, which I looked at him like, that seems like the kid was going to walk into a into a teleprompter. And he comes from, Josh comes from a very abusive household. And he said, Oh no, this is someone who may be very different than we think at home. And I'm not going to say that, but because I'm going to say Josh said it, but I wouldn't, I wouldn't be surprised. Look,
just look at the guy's face. I mean, I've heard of resting bitch face, but that's, that's amazing. What that guy has, you imagine looking at that

you think is an a hole, possibly? Yeah, well, possibly. I don't know why you should be so reluctant to say that he's just seems like one. I mean, I have a clip I've been hanging on to because he keeps saying, whatever is just a mistake. And this is where he can't, you know, he, didn't retire as Sergeant Major or whatever. Yeah, he army. He had the Stolen Valor. Stolen Valor. He had the he was downgraded because he never finished.

He didn't complete the course, he didn't take the test. He was not he

didn't do it right so, but he's still taking credit for it. And so this is a clip of just a few examples of his refusing to correct people who said it, and him saying it and everything in between. This is the waltz misspoke, supercut
major as a retired Sergeant Major in the Army National Guard out of Minnesota, retired out as Command Sergeant Major. I spent 24 years in the military Congressman as a Command Sergeant Major. I hope Tim Walz is one of those everyday people, coach to the state champs, Teacher of the Year, Command Sergeant Major. I am a retired Command Sergeant Major in the Minnesota National
Guard. I am retired Sergeant Major in the Army National Guard, what I consider to be the responsibility and the privilege of being the highest ranking enlisted personnel ever to serve in Congress and Democrats. What rank was that? Command Sergeant Major? So when you first came to Washington, you were a retired Command Sergeant Major in the Army National Guard. So I was an enlisted soldier for all those years and care of true. And making sure they have the right equipment is is paramount.
So he's a coach to the State football champs, and he's a command sergeant major in the Army National Guard. And I introduce you my favorite coworker who achieved the rank of Command Sergeant Major in the Army National Guard, and someone who proudly wears the Red Bull whenever he can. So please join me in welcoming our governor, a veteran, Governor DeWalt 17 served 24 years, including not racist during freedom retirees, which makes it the highest rank for listed

and the one you've been hanging on to it was almost, almost unintelligible.

Well, it falls apart, yes, but what's so to me? But it's obvious what's what he's up to. Well, he's a liar. Well,

it's fascinating, because if you went out on the streets of America to man on the street before Walt's, no one would have even known of the rank, command assert, Sergeant Major. I didn't you know Lieutenant Serge, maybe Sergeant Command Sergeant Major. I don't think anyone would have known about it. Now, everyone's like, Oh, he's Command Sergeant Major. That's how it works. And and I will have to say that the the M 5m reach is pretty large because it's, it's, it's put online.
That's where it gets traction. And that's how we also get traction for the horrible JD Vance, you know, he, he, Oh, my Lord, He is so mean to women. He hates women. In fact, he hates women so much, his example of dumb women could make you John C Dvorak, Vice President. Let's
start with JD Vance, of course, Trump's running mate. Last night, he posted an old viral video on x of a teenage beauty contestant who badly flubbed a question, and he wrote breaking I have gotten a hold of the full Kamala Harris CNN interview, and that post, in and of itself, trades on, of course, misogynist and reductive tropes about beauty queens being stupid and insinuating that Harris, by extension, fits in this
category. So this morning, when he was told that the young contestant in that video, Caitlin Upton, was traumatized by how that embarrassing moment was so widely shared back in 2007 and even contemplated suicide. JD Vance said this, politics has gotten way too lame. John, way too boring. You can have some fun while making a good argument to the American people about how you're going to improve their lives. I'm not going to apologize for posting a joke, but I wish the best for
Caitlin. I hope that she's doing well. And again, what I'd say is one bad moment shouldn't define anybody, and the best way to deal with this stuff is to laugh at ourselves. Of course, the trouble with that answer is that Vance isn't laughing at himself, the optics, if you parse it, he's making a joke about a woman at the expense of another woman. Oh,

oh no, it's a double whammy harsh this.

Oh brother. He's really a nice guy, and he's trying to do his best there. And I think he did well. And then all of a sudden, you turn that on, turn it back on.

Him making fun of a woman at the expense of another woman. Well, let's double down. Recent
polls have shown a fifth of Americans can't locate the US on a world map. Why do you think this is I personally believe that us Americans are unable to do so because some people out there in our nation don't have maps, and I believe that our education, like such as in South Africa and the Iraq everywhere, like such as and I believe that they should our education over here in the US should help the US, or
should Help South Africa. It should help the Iraq and the Asian countries, so we will be able to build up our future for our children. Thank you very much, South Carolina.

So this is the so JD Vance, the guy that Tim walls can't help saying he had or insinuating he had sex with his couch, which is also funny.

It's funny and total bull crap. Yeah, it was just dreamed up by a comedian, basically. But

then, but then, wait another JCD moment, because how many times have you not said at least half of this joke? And
that is not the only post that's getting this team into hot water. One post in particular shared by Donald Trump, a photo of Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris. And I'm going to warn you now that the joke attached to it is very vulgar. So if you have little ones that don't want to hear this, just sort of turn off the TV. This is your moment. It basically says it's funny how blow jobs impacted both. Of
their careers differently. That, of course, a reference to Bill Clinton's inappropriate behavior with a White House intern, as well as an insinuation that Harris slept her way to a position of influence. So none of that likely to win over many women voters.

What I think lots of women would be like, hey, good point. Yeah, we've gone, we've sunk to a new low in politics. Unbelievable.

No, it's completely You're right. I do that gag. I don't do it that much, but I have done that gag at least 20 I've made mention, yeah, usually with the timing, with the purpose of timing correct, to get a cheap laugh from you, and it always works. It tends to work, which is pathetic on your part.
I'm blaming you for

this. Hey, you're making fun of me at the expense of someone else. Now I don't know this is

wrong. Yeah, it's terrible that people do that. It's

wrong. Yeah. Hmm, that's hilarious. I'm glad that we there's material here, though, but it's just, is that really the level? If anything, the whole point is to make people tune out. I think, yeah, just tune out. Who cares? I have just one final thing I've got

to want to mention something else, this vibe, Joy vibe thing, or the doll we don't need policy. We just needed vibe versus like that. Woman is not likable. She is arrogant, condescending, patronizing. She is she's glib. She has a these looks on her face that she develops around people. She's borderline anti social. It's just, I don't see what, what the appeal is. These guys have got to be biting their tongue constantly when they're because they have to Democrat,
once a Democrat, always a Democrat. This,

no, this is not Democrat. This is this is just their job. This is what they're paid to do. They're part of the system. It's just, it's what it is. It's what you do when the system is threatened, which it clearly is by Trump and Bobby D op. Who is he belongs in a loony bin? Oh, someone sent me the clip. Where is it? Here, I still don't have the Axelrod clip, which is really the best one, if anyone can find that someone did send me the James Carville clip calling Bobby The Opera a nut job.
I really feel sorry for the Kennedy family, because I remind them you can pick your friends, you can't pick your relatives, and if Bobby Kennedy lived in a rocky mountain country, they would have him in a nice rubber room and, you know, three hots and a cotton take care of this guy. He's no business being out on the street, mixing and mingling with people. But this is where we are. In this country. We have a mental health crisis.

Mental Health Crisis, Bobby, the up is part of the mental health crisis. So then we, we get Ari Melber, Harry Melber, you know, you know, he's

a lawyer, Mr. Five o'clock shadow, hip hop expert.

He's always doing Hip Hop lyrics in the in the great, in the great words of fill in the blank flavor, flav of Public Enemy, the guy with the gold tooth and the big clock around his neck. And it'll cite some rap lyrics. So supposedly, he made fun of which they were all doing. And by the way, we made fun of it too of Trump would come out with a giant, a giant, you know, pad on his ear at the RNC, which he kind of, did, you know, giant, giant gauze predicted? Yeah, we were
talking. I mean, there were jokes everywhere, like a big my pillow on his head. And it was kind of a joke at the RNC people had big, big pads on their head, out of solidarity. So Corey Lewandowski, is he back on the scene? Isn't this the guy who was Trump's campaign manager, but then he got kicked out because he roughed up some, some journalist, he's

the one. Yes, he's the one. And he is kind of back, but he's not back in the in the position he used to be. Yeah, he's the one, if you recall, he didn't do anything to any journalist. He kind of, kind of tapped somebody on the shoulder and told her to move aside. And then Ben Shapiro, who, at the time, hated Trump, made a big stink about it.
Because Shapiro, I believe, was working for Breitbart, and he wanted to do his own thing, and so he made a big stink about Lewandowski beating up this poor woman, and him and the woman started their own operation, Daily Caller, or whatever the hell it is, daily wire, daily, daily

wire, yeah, whatever. But, but she had a bruise. I remember her showing her. Her whole arm was bruised.

It was a the whole thing. Was a scam, and I really lost a lot of respect for Shapiro at the time, because it was obvious that he was in on it to make a fuss so he could start his own thing. So he had an excuse to quit. Buck Breitbart,

well, so Corey Lewandowski is on MSNBC for some reason, and he gets into it with Ari Melbourne, Ari melbers pushing back. And it was just, this was really good television. I
do want to turn to something that came up in the last time we did an interview, and it's been a few years, you're back here as representative of the campaign. That's a way back. Machine baby, okay,

wait a minute. He's back as representative of the campaign, and is, and the first thing he says is, Whoo, that's a way back. Machine baby, okay. Trump, fire this guy.

It's pretty bad. Can

someone please get rid of Lewandowski? Well,
Corey, when you were on here, we asked you, point blank about these reports that Donald Trump as president had tried to use you as a kind of improper cutout to shut down an open federal probe, which is a big deal. We have some headlines on that, and we asked you about at

the time, what federal probe? What was that? I don't remember you. Now, I
want to turn to this to deal with the first time you've been back since then. Do you want to state for the record that what you stated on air was false, because people are listening to you about the campaign, and why should they believe you if you're lying about other things?

This is great. It's like, hey, camel lied for 18 minutes. So we're gonna, we're gonna make a fuss about you lying. Four years ago.

Ari, if we're going around the road, are you gonna state that Donald Trump had a bandage on his ear just for a spectacle? Are you gonna say that that was false? The guy got shot in the head, and you said the only reason he had a bandage on his ear, I can read you the quote if you want deflection that you said it was just respecting so if you
want to answer the question, Corey Ari, you're not take back your statement. I know what you're referring to, and at the end of the interview, we can touch base on that. We're going to finish this question. I will return to that. This

is, you know, I hope, just for the show sake that Louie, Louie, Louie corindowski, Corey Lewandowski, he's now, from now on, he's Louie Corin doski, Louis, he's, I hope Lou Louie will be press secretary. Please. We have

now Now, yes,

yes. There it is.

That would be fantastic. Well,

wait until you hear what we're going to have for the next four more years. You're
clear. I gave you time. I didn't lead with this. I gave you time to talk about 2024 you got that time, and this is now your chance to address this. And you're not addressing that's fine. Ari, you're not addressing the interview. I'm me to respond? I'm gonna I'm gonna respond to you on

live air. Oh, boy, oh, I have to turn it up. I'm gonna spawn respond to you on live air or live air. A
New York Times article that said at the convention. Donald Trump was his own biggest prop. It was a New York Times quote about how he let me how he had become such an important figure in rebounding from what was a horrific assassination attempt. Fox News, Cory, I said I'd address it. I'm going to finish Fox News. Many viewers may not know about this, but apparently you do, and some do, Fox News which has been caught in defamation ran a false peace defamation, falsely stating that, wait

a minute, Fox News which has been caught in defamation so that that would that would pertain to the Dominion voting machines case, or it has to what else would it be? So? So Fox News, no good,
falsely stating that I said something else that I didn't say. So I stand on that. I stand on the New York you didn't say this bandage was a proper spectacle from a candidate with spectacles, Mr. Landowski

brought out the Mr. Mr. Louis.
And if you, I'm putting you on notice. If you continue to,

oh, no, he's being put on notice by Ari Melbourne. Oh, this is bad. I'm putting you
on notice. If you continue to repeat falsely that I said that you will be potentially in a defamation situation. I'm gonna sue your ass buddy, because I didn't say that. But I understand that you're working off the

internet. Definitely misquoting somebody's not defamation. He's full of shit, this guy, but

Ari knows rap lyrics So, so okay, that
I said that you will be potentially in a defamation situation because I didn't say that, but I understand that you're working off the internet, which is a lot of false information. With that and Corey Lewandowski, we gave you time. I appreciate you coming to prison for that. Thank you for joining

me. Oh, hung up on him. Rage Quit. Oh, man, please, please, Mr. Trump, make him your press secretary. So good. What is that guy doing? And wasn't he? Remember he was banging Christy Nome.
Lewandowski,

I think so. Oh,

no, way, yes, yes, way,

Lou and dowski Gnome, think so.

I don't think yes, thank you. Christy GNOME,

Corey Lewandowski affair, shakes up. Trump here. Yes, they even had a clip about it then, Lewis,

you had been the guy who gave her the the tip, if she doesn't want to be vice president, shoot your dog. Shoot

your dog. Yes, that yes, that's right,

wow. That's a, that's a that's wild,

yep, yep, yeah, we how much we forget, but not our trolls. Our trolls remember these things because I would never say banging, that came from the troll room. Obviously,

banging. That's not a British troll. They say shagging, shagging.

That's what I should have said, shagging. You're right. Final thing on this from on the the CNN interview, this is the overview from NBC perspective. Who did not get the exclusive? You know, Dana Bash is now promoting her book, coincidentally, and I heard her this morning talking about, what's

your book? He's gonna read a Dinah bash book. Well,

I mean, someone's gonna buy it. It's America's deadliest election, the cautionary tale of the most violent election in American history, and that is actually the violent election of 1872

but that will be fascinating, a fascinating read from a news anchor on CNN about the historic events of 1872 I don't think so.

The entire country watched in grim fascination as the wounds of the Civil War were ripped open, and the promise of President

Grant, we're watching TV,

and President Grant's reconstruction faltered in the face of violent resistance and the birth of the Ku Klux Klan. Here we go. You see, do you see what this going on here? In this riveting book, according to Amazon, Dana Bash and David Fisher, the guy who wrote the book, obviously, David Fisher tell the incredible, little known story of the election. O'Reilly, yes, little known story of the election that pushed democracy to the breaking point and sparked historic
events. Now you're a historian. Do you remember the historic events of the 1872 election? It was just a little kid the Colfax, the Colfax massacre, which at least 150 black men were killed by white supremacists, also known as Maga, the extraordinary, the extraordinary train race from New York to New Orleans for control of the state government. They still have the same train running there, the election of the first black congressman from from Louisiana in the face of violent resistance and the

black a black Republican, I might add, thank

you. The Supreme Court ruling that ended reconstruction became the foundation of southern segregation, changing the American legal system for the next century. I mean, this is so planned, and that Dan is saying on her own station. And mind you, oh, it's been quite a week. It's been, I mean, I've barely got any sleep. I had you this incredibly, you know this, it was just exciting interview all 18 it was, you know, maybe the whole she was interviewing for
the whole week to get those 18 minutes, I don't know. Ah, yes.

Well that I want to play a couple of things here, but I doubt you brought that 1872 thing up. I would, I wouldn't mind playing these, these clips about Christian nationalism, which is also playing. Here we go. This is the same, the same thing. What you just cited. This is all part. It's like the Reagan movie coming out, and movie, yeah, it's all both sides are, you know, vying for for attention and but this is the most pathetic one. And this is a

now repeat that. So this is, this is my beat here. Yeah, I'm planning

to miss this. You step on my beat all the time. So I didn't have any problem going into No, you go for you go girl. But it was, this was on NPR, and the subtext is that, sorry, you'll hear the subtext right away, but it's just so it's just an anti Trump without ever mentioning Trump ever kind of a and it's so. So dumb it this is incredibly dumb. This is a NPR special report on Christian nationalism. I actually cut I
have five short clips. I actually had to cut it off because it continued for another 10 minutes and it was just more than I could take. But let's play just start with clip one, elitist
voices of America. This is NPR. Christian nationalism is a movement that has gained momentum in conservative circles in recent years. The basic idea is a blend of government and religion, specifically Christianity, that is way more explicit and intense than it has typically been the case throughout American history. What

now I'm gonna have to interrupt these from time to time. Yeah,

you should interrupt because that, what he just said, is nonsense. There used to be a revivalist moments in history that were outrageous. And if you go back this was, this is, and when you start to hear the numbers he throws out of the number of people that are involved in one thing or another. Here it's, it's ridiculously low. But okay, here we go. Let's hear that again. I

gotta hear it again. It's the basic
idea is a blend of government and religion, specifically Christianity, that is way more explicit and intense than it has typically been the case throughout American history,

except for the actual beginning of it, but okay,
new public radio podcast takes a look. Oh, it's

a podcast. Oh, this wasn't on the air. Yes, it was. He says, new public radio,

no, okay, I pulled this right off of the on the air feed. He's referring to a podcast that talks about this. I'm sorry.

Okay. All right. All right. I strike that from the record. The jury will disregard my remark. The
case throughout American history. A new public radio podcast takes a look inside the Christian nationalist movement. It's called extremely American Onward Christian Soldiers. Here's host Heath druzen and reporter James Dawson from Boise State Public Radio. I'm talking to Gabriel rich, a media personality and activist in Idaho. Most people call him Gabe. Okay, great. Gabe has a
lot of ideas about how America should change. He said it would probably take a long time, but that you would like to see only Christians be able to run for office. So if you're Jewish, if you're Muslim, if you're atheist, certainly, if I had you right, you said that, yes, you would. You would support eventually that them not being allowed to run for office. That's

correct. I did say that because Gabe, is it? So this guy? Where do they dig this guy up? What's his name? What's his last name? Gabe. This is Gabe from Idaho. I'm surprised I don't have him on my in my podcast app. I

think he should be. He's not on your phone with you. Push a button you call

him. Hey, Gabe, let's get all them Muslims out of Congress. Man, this no good. This is, this is what the Lord wants. I did say that
because Gabe is a proud Christian nationalist.

I think that the Christian faith is the ideal

stop again. You have to and back it up. This guy is so adenoidal. It's like, if I had a talk, I was gonna talk like this, because I can't really breathe through my dose. I'm not absolutely sure why, but it just can't get any air out. What's

it what is his name? Gabe, right. What is his name?

Gabe some. Well, I

gotta find him. I mean, I'm looking in

the definitely, definitely, Gabe

wrench, okay, Gabe wrench, are not with a W, I'm just looking at his website.

Dave wrench, wrench,

r, e, n, C, H, like French without the F. This is a good old boy. He's got his hat on. He's sitting in his rocking chair on the porch with a cigar and

his big cigar, a smoker and a drinker and

a Texas mug, even though he's in Boise. Okay, here we go. I did say that, because
Gabe is a proud Christian nationalist,

I think that the Christian faith is the ideal moral doctrine and principles for a thriving society. And the farther you get away from that, the more in chaos we descend. And so the only way to maintain that, or one of the ways maintain that is you have to have people who are running for office who believe that, or you're gonna get back into that chaotic decline. That doesn't mean that they can't be agnostic or, you know, or atheists. I'm sorry. I'm sorry, chaotic decline.
So I'll tell you straight up as a Jewish American. Oh, there it is that I can't run for office. Other non Christians can't. And I have to admit, it's a little terrifying to me, because to me, that means a fundamental freedom of mine in this theoretical world is gone.

Oh, okay, so what is this? Where do they dig this guy up? This is great

well as this is what you do, because it's to scare the NPR audience into thinking, this is what's going on with Trump. Oh, my Lord, Trump doesn't want Jews, but the office Trump doesn't want any Muslims, or anybody, or or the atheists that run the country, they don't want to know. This is what you're going to get. You're going to get because but you
find some guy like this. This is so this reminds me of the old trick where you you set up a debate with two people, and you pick both of them, yeah, and you have one guy who's on your side, and he's very reasonable, smart guy, and then you bring the dumbest weirdo that you can think of, and put that person on the other side, and have them do a debate in public, and then see what happens. This is, this is a setup. The only,

the only thing that, that, I think, is, you know, Christian nationalism is, you know, the so called Judeo, by the way, note the term Judeo Christian values, which our constitution is derived from, basically the 10 Commandments. And the founders were were all into it, but I don't think the first in the Bill of Rights is like first amendments, like freedom of religion. There's no and it doesn't explicit there, explicitly stating no religious test. Did that come up in this
interview? No, yeah, you're saying that in a country where you experience all these immense freedoms that was built on the
Christian faith, so where I can run for office right now? Yeah, because your worldview is not good for society. So Gabe wants biblical law to apply to everyone. That means a lot less democracy, especially for non Christians like me,

this is great biblical law that means a lot less democracy. Okay,
I should probably pause a moment here to acknowledge the bizarre journey I've been on for the past year. Please do I've mentioned before that I'm Jewish, and it has been surreal, dude.

Hey, tell us again. Are you I've mentioned
before that I'm Jewish, and it has been surreal to be immersed in this world of Christian nationalism.

Well, Jews don't believe in Jesus, so let's start there. Don't
get me wrong, people like Gabe have been unfailingly polite, which frankly, makes it weirder, weirder and being politely told I don't deserve key rights. But the reason I'm here listening to Gabe explain why I should lose my rights is not to feel uncomfortable. It's because plenty of people agree with him.

Oh, so that's make that you're supposed to make the listener feel uncomfortable.

Yeah, and plenty of plenty with this guy. And notice, and by the way, they're all Trump voters.

And notice the key term weird being slipped in there. Yes,

he slipped that in. The whole thing is, this is an anti Trump presentation that is all subtext, subtextual, and it is extremely subversive, and I it it's disgusting, it's disgusting, and it's basically a lie. But let's continue. There's all kinds of people that would think, just like this guy, there's more. There's more.
Gabe is part of a younger vanguard of Christian nationalists trying to make their vision a reality, and they're spreading their word through popular streaming shows, including gabe's creation cross politic.

Merry Christmas. Could not wait. They couldn't get a more recent version. They had to get, they had to take the Merry Christmas show. Is that I

don't know what they're doing. Interesting.

Merry Christmas. Welcome to cross politic. I could not wait for the weekend to end.
Across now to begin. Cross politic is a mash up of fundamentalist religion, politics and drinking.

They're all drunks, so it's kind of faster paced show, and, you know, a little rough around the edges. So I think that's attractive to a younger generation. Our music, you know, is a little more hard hitting.
These aren't the mega church pastors of your with their faith healing and fire and brimstone, those guys focused on arena size. Gabe and his allies, he's popular, streaming, savvy, yeah,

straight out going on. Uh, this guy doesn't know what he's talking about. Uh, mega churches do anything but, but Byron, exactly.

That's as much smaller churches do that kind of stuff? Yeah,

no, the mega churches are based are entertainment vehicles. They're they have large audiences, and they put on a show correct, and it's a good show. So this guy doesn't know what he's saying. But okay, we're going to generalize based on the fact that you don't know what you're talking about. But let's continue, because this. Is really not about that anyway. It's about Trump.
Those guys focused on arena sized church crowds, Gabe and his allies use popular streaming shows and savvy social media. They have followers around the country. They write books extolling the patriarchy, and want their followers to get political. Well, hold

on, what books extolling the patriarchy? This is this. They write books extolling the

patriarchy. Yeah, The

Handmaid's Tale project 2025 they
have followers around the country. They write books extolling the patriarchy. And want their followers to get political and get more Christ into government. They love to get into my tribe, your tribe, tribalism and all sorts of nonsense. Gabe and his Christian nationalist peers are a whiskey drinking, cigar smoking set that favor expensive boots and well quaffed hair. Oh, yes, you Adam

me. Well, expensive boots and well quaffed hair. Oh, oh, hey, maybe you know, just thinking back to that opening where he says, Yes, I did say that. It sounds like that might have been something that was taken out of context. Is that possible? No, no, no, no. Gabe means it. V means it. No Jews in Congress, too many of them. Sounds about right for the Christian nationalism. What clip are we on? We're on four kick. Art says, okay,

yeah. Play, yeah, play, please.
What we drinking? Um, this is uh, Clinton fittic, 14

year. I don't know if this is what from a listener. Hold on a second. What kind of Merkin is that drinking that Fern whiskey, single malt, no less. What happened to Jack baby kind
of hipster theocrats with a distinctly bro motif and business is good. These guys have popular books, a large podcast and a YouTube channel with about 20,000 subscribers. I ah,

20,000 subscribers on YouTube. Well, yeah, wow, they're rocking it, and they're marching on their they're marching their way to Washington, DC, everybody. So

when I heard that's obviously why I cut this one short, I

can't wait to be on this guy's podcast.

This guy is, is a loser. And, you know, 20,000 uh, subscribers on YouTube is not falling off. That's not even falling off a log. That's the algo just signing up.

The algos barely hit you with that. So,

so this is a, an extreme this, this presentation on NPR, very pathetic, is what, what this is. It's, it's pathetic, but it's, it probably works, because the NPR people are so naive and dumb the listeners. And by the way, if anyone's sending money to these, these folks, please send it far away instead, because you're getting real information, as opposed to, this is essentially a lie, what this presentation is. Yeah, there it is, 20,000 Oh, they've got popular books, a
big, popular podcast, and 20,000 subscribers on YouTube. This is, like the typical one of these shows, like, what do you think Jordan Peterson's got to get what? 5 million people on YouTube. I mean, now

this Gabe guy has written exactly zero books. He hasn't written any books, at least not.

Oh, you're, you're on his web page. Yeah, he would have his books listed, yeah. He

says, my writings, and it's just blog posts. There's no books about me. Now, let's read about me. He was born in the promised lands of Texas. Six states later, he ended up in Moscow, Idaho. Can't believe you're in some commie named town. He graduated. He graduated from the University of Idaho. Man, although I will say, if you look at his family, good looking family, but he literally has the girls dressed up in Handmaid's Tale outfits.

This whole thing sounds fixed. It

does Okay, all right. Last clip is a word from Texas. And
each year, leading Christian nationalist thinkers as well as rank and file believers gather at a conference. As

soon as I walked on campus, someone handed me a glass of whiskey, and I was like, All right, I'm at the fight laugh feast conference. Now it's official. It's official.
This is gabe's creation, but one of the ways fight laugh feast is four days of fundamentalist Christians talking to Christians about being Christian. One of

the gifts that God has given us is to be able to kind of be a place where we could bring like minded Christians together.
So journey and I went church, anybody flew across the country to where Gabe and his compatriots were brainstorming a Christian takeover of America. We're in the Northern Kentucky countryside. The landscape is rolling and wooded with lots of farms and of course. Distilleries. But we're not here just as an excuse to go bourbon tasting. We're here to attend fight, laugh, feast. The theme is the politics of the six days of creation. This, of course, is
the granddaddy of Bible verses, Genesis. One in the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. From there, each day, God creates a new facet of the earth. And on the seventh day, he rests. And yeah, Christian nationalists definitely go with he creation in six days,

those dirty Christian nationalists, Patriarch, Patriarch. God is a he? Oh no, creation in
six days, a gigantic floating zoo with giraffes sticking their heads out the windows, burning bushes, donkeys, dragons and unicorns. Resurrection from the dead. Yeah, we believe all of

it. Oh, man, this is so awesome. Well, I'm sure people are shaking in their boots. You really think that works? Yeah, I don't think. I think what they did wrong is they took it into they keep saying some backwoods and, you know, people don't care about that they care about if it's in Boise, no. Well, figure wrong. That's pretty

funny. I think this and it continues. They went on and on about unicorns, actually.

And I have not had, I gotta ask pastor Jimmy for the unicorn sermon,

yeah. And they then they cited the Bible talks about unicorns X number of times. And they're obviously, and these guys are big believers in the unicorn, and it goes on and on again. Just after a while, I had to cut it off because it was, like, ridiculous. But this is a propagandistic technique that they like to use at NPR of creating a bogus world that is a threat to you, yeah. And this is very, you know, this is this, I mean little. I mean, cult. Did they do

a whole series on the Jews in the tunnels in New York? Or did this guy not cover that if you wanted, if you wanted to

know, probably did. But the point is, this is, like, all very subtle to me, subtle. Anti Trump propaganda, anti subtle. It's Republican. It's not so subtle at all. I consider it to be subtle. And if you're a believer of the Democrat side of things, and you're listening to this, you're not noticing that, you're just appalled. It's make you appalled, and then to make you connected to the Yeah. Why you appalled? Well, because of the patriarchy and unified you
appalled. Well, it's because these Christian nut cases that are all voting for Trump. Yeah. They're a threat to democracy. Yeah. The whole thing is really

Trump is begging them to come out and vote, please, CD. CD is a good word. Wow. Well, seems to be a lack of history of the country the way he's presenting it. But okay,

it is, of course, because they're not teaching anybody anything in schools except gender affirming care.

Oh, speaking of such and the patriarchy. CBC, over there in Scandinavia, which of course, is our beta test ground, they've introduced a new term to the lexicon. It's not a new term, but in this context, it was new to me. Good evening. We
begin tonight with the latest on a murder investigation in the city's west end. A 47 year old woman is dead after police were called to a home in a rural area early yesterday evening, her 55 year old husband is now charged with second degree murder, and Ottawa police are calling the murder a femicide, a rare use of the label by the service femicide described as the killing of a woman or girl by a man,

femicide,

femicide was bringing that in. Well,

here's a brief explanation.
Police say her death was related to an alleged act of intimate partner violence. The details determined that it met the criteria for femicide. Femicide is really about women and girls who are murdered for their gender and usually for misogynistic reasons.

Wow, femicide. But let's call abortion choice and not infanticide. They hate to be doing that, but it's just, it's okay. We're in, we're in crazy times, man, crazy. It's

just crazy. It's crazy down,

crazy town. I don't know what to make of it. So crazy. Well, let's see. I could make it a little bit crazier. But. By bringing you. Okay, here we go. Let's start. Let's just ease into it. Let's ease into it, because France is very concerned about their flamingos. Did you were you aware of France, France's flamingos? Not at all. Neither was I. I was very, very surprised about the love of the French flamingos shimmering
planes and lagoons. As far as the eye can see in the southwesterly corner of France's Mediterranean coastline, these elegant silhouettes streak across the horizon an iconic part of the landscape. Some 5000 Pink Flamingos live in and around the salt marshes, performing their nightly ballet for these delighted tourists, captivated by the natural spectacle, they're so endearing. Their colors, the way they fly and the way they move in a group, has been an inch divide
in this region for 12 years. He's an expert in Flamingo behavior. Diet, small varieties of seaweed, or shrimp. Planktonite are readily available in large quantities, and that's what they eat. Yet this diet's part of a delicate balancing act. As global warming causes water levels to rise, the fear is that these planes could flood, submerging the landscape and making it uninhabitable for the birds.

So nothing's happened. The birds are fine, but because of climate change, you could lose your flamingos, which I guess, is the national bird of France,
due to climate change.

So due to climate change, this was a beautiful promo that I came across, and it's a special that I must watch. It's from Channel Five in the UK. Do you remember 1976 in the UK? What happened in the UK

in 76 in the UK? And I

didn't remember I was in Holland. So I think I remember this part of that was in Holland too. But does

that something to do with Yoko

close in 1976
the UK was one of the hottest places on earth. You never saw a cloud. It was like living in the Mediterranean. Imagine a summer when Britain ran out of water. Well, the flow of the Thames has now, in fact, stopped. The perception of England was that it always rain, temperatures reaching 36 degrees centigrade, lasting for 10 long weeks. All of a sudden we were into a parallel universe and 45 days without a drop of rain. To ask for two solid weeks of
rain is like crying for the moon. That's when we started to take it very seriously, leading to the most devastating drought for 250 years. Water supplied to this area will be constructed between the hours of 12pm I'd taken water for granted all my life. I think it really drought for minutes, worse than the war in there, it was, Oh, my God, this is the like of which we've never known. But as Brits,
rose to the challenge. I never actually bathed with a friend because I didn't have a friend at the time I fancied enough to have a bath with for kids, it was a summer that seemed to last forever. We just played out. I just remember Yeah, with unalloyed happiness, were these the most Halcyon Days in British history? Everyone was stripping off. It was just bliss. Everyone was popping off
with absolutely everyone. But when the weather finally broke, grid plopping drops of rain, ending months of communal standpipes for millions of bricks, society would never be the same again.

I mean, this is a great report. The Thames dried up in 1976 people hadn't there was no water. It was worse than the war, and the kids loved it. They weren't being told to be afraid of climate change, and they were taking baths together. It was great. No one really talks about the summer of 1976 now do they?

No, why would they? It makes it, makes it falls out of the timeline that you want. But something happened. This happened again in the 80s, because I remember going to England with Mimi and and the it was another one of these weird droughts, 80, I'm

going to say 80, 1980 itself, maybe, maybe was it really? It

could be. But whatever the case, it was a probably wasn't 1980 or later. Yeah, but it was the Hyde Park was dead, dead. The grass was all brown. It was all it was just like 76 problem. This happens a lot.

It's called Summer. It's called Summer,

by the way, yes, the red jungle fowl or the Gaelic rooster, that. Is the national bird of France. Oh, thank

you. Good to know. I'm gonna stick with the UK, because there was, there's a video that's gone viral in the in the UK, and when I say viral, I mean millions of views on Tiktok. So I'm surprised it didn't show up in your algo, reposted everywhere, millions of views on x. Have you seen a day in the life of an Englishman? No, so you have to kind of get into it, because it's obviously a Brit so he uses a bit of slang
and a bit of language. He's walking around doing a typical selfie stick walk through the streets of London, and he is going to explain a typical day. It's like an update of the Beatles day in the life, only different. Let's tell
you a little story. All right, sit back, relax and enjoy it's called a day in the life of an Englishman. Now, picture this. You're in London. It costs more than you earn to live here, so you're slowly accumulating there. You can't afford a holiday, so you're addicted to drugs, just to fucking escape your life. The weather's shit. The people that live here are even shitter and they hate each other with a passion, and you can't afford to leave. There's homeless people all over the
place. The shops are boarded up because of covid. Anyway, you wake up one morning to find out your taxes going up because Labor's in and this is after you les the cost of living crisis, energy prices, interest rates, have all eaten that last little bit of extra money you had left over each month from your wage
and your outgoings. So now you're proper, folks, and while you're sat there on the toilet in the morning reading tweets from the Metropolitan Police about online trolls and how they upset them, a SWAT team smashes through your bathroom window straight pasture on the shitter and goes into your 11 year old son's bedroom and arrests him for shouting at a police
officer. Then your sister rings her She's recently got fired from her job as a doctor for refusing to ask biological men if they're pregnant, and she tells her that your grandma's just frozen to death because Keir Starmer gave her a winter allowance to a country on the other side of the planet that's wealthier than us to help them with climate change. It's all getting a little bit much anyway. And you think you know what I'll do, I'll nip off for a pint to relax. Maybe I'll sit in
the beer garden and have a fag. But while you're doing that, you get barred, because that's illegal now. So you decide you know what I'm gonna do, I'm gonna go for a walk to clear my head morning. And while you're on your walk clearing your head, you get stabbed to death. Yes, stabbed to death violently just walking around the city. Then the Guardian plasters your face all over the news for randomly jumping on a perfectly good night 54 times that was held by a choir boy. Then your sister's
enraged by this, so she tweets about it. She gets nicked. Your son comes out of prison, all right, and he decides, I'm going to protest it because my dad's dead. But this time he shouts at a police horse, and he gets nicked for that, but the prisons are too full, so they let out Ian Huntley to put him in. Now, the mad thing about this tale is it doesn't even sound far fetched anymore, does it? It's perfectly believable. I'll tell you why, because it's all based on true events. This is our
story. This is fucking England. I Yeah,

it's bad when you look at it from that perspective. And I didn't believe the my friend Michelle. He's been a pub guy, owner of pubs and clubs for as long as I've known him, when I lived in Guilford. And I mean, he doesn't even text me anymore. He's so depressed because, you know, his clubs are closed. He can't. They have they're bringing in regulations for how much you can charge for for alcohol, or I think, actually going to charge extra for alcohol so that it
becomes less desirable to buy alcohol. And I didn't, I How did you go to a pub for of course, but and and people go to pubs, and then they have their beer garden. You go, as you said, you know, God, so I'd have a fag, which is British for cigarette. And indeed, they're going to ban this. Here is the new Prime Minister of the
UK. My starting point on this is to remind everyone that over 80,000 people lose their lives every year because of smoking. That's a preventable death. It's a huge burden on the NHS, and of course, it's a burden on the taxpayer. So yes, we are going to take decisions in this space. More details will be revealed, but this is a series of deaths, and we've got to take the action to reduce the burden on the NHS and reduce the
burden on the taxpayer. You said when you became prime minister, you wanted politics to tread more lightly on people's lives. This is the opposite, isn't it? I think it's important to get the balance right. But everybody watching this who uses the NHS will know that it's on its knees. We have to relieve the burden, and that's why I spoke before the election about moving to a preventative model
when it comes to health. I want the NHS back on its feet, but I also want it fit for the next 75 years, just as we've had a brilliant 75 years already. E and that means taking action in relation to preventable deaths. And these are 80,000 a year preventable deaths.

You know, when I was in the UK in 2005 the NHS was on its knees. You had to wait six to nine months just for an MRI. This is, this is, this is not good. What's going on there. And you just got to wonder, are the British people just taking it, or are they going to rise up again? Or is that all just Tommy Robinson lore? Is he the only one

doing this? You're asking the wrong guy. And

then there's the new one. And I think this this, and it's rolled out to Australia, the right to disconnect. Have you heard of this? This is a new one.

Nope, you got me flat footed once again, twice in one show. Okay,

I'll play the Australian clip first, because it explains it in a little more detail, and then I'll play the UK clip. The
ICT U is pushing to strengthen right to disconnect. Laws being introduced by the Albanese government. The union is requesting the Fair Work Commission to insert the laws into awards, arguing employers should be held accountable for proper staffing. It's proposing a further two factors be taken into account, whether the employees on leave or another authorized absence, so

you have the right to disconnect, meaning your employer cannot pester you, which is a problem, but you know, to make this a law and oh, no, you can't. You cannot talk to me after five o'clock. And from what Nigel Farage says, this appears to be happening in the UK as well. I wonder
if a new prime minister is telling you that you can do plenty of work from home and you can't be contacted outside office hours, otherwise you might be subject to 1000s of pounds in compensation. You shouldn't be working after five o'clock, and all of this will boost productivity. Let me tell you, this is a load of cobblers if you only want in life and succeed, believe me, you've got to work hard. You've got to work
damned hard. You've got to be prepared to get out of your house, meet people, do stuff, and if necessary, work late into the evening. It's up to you. You want to be successful. Work hard. You want to fail. Listen to our prime minister. You

know this can only lead to that. This can only lead to universal basic income. As far as I'm concerned,

it has to, I don't know about what connection there. No, I don't know what the point of it is. I mean, when I was at working in an oil refinery where you worked shift work, where you'd work one week of

were you on? Were you on the one of the islands? Were you on the drilling islands up

here in rodeo at the Union oil refinery? Oh, okay, and you would work overtime. Sometimes there would be a lot of and sometimes they'd call you at home to tell you, can you come in because we need somebody for some reason or other, you just never answered the phone. You're in bed, sleeping well, like now, for example, I don't have a phone anywhere near the bedroom. I know I can you want to call me?
I'm in bed. Is your nose picking up? So what's How? How does that not work to keep you disconnected if you want to be

well, that's why you missed my surprise birthday party. Tina was calling you and you were just ignoring the phone. Never called me once.
How do you know? Never called me? How

do you know? How do you know you never heard it? You just you were in bed. Well, I

have a phone if she if she called during the day, the working hours. I'm working out. There you go, working out the landline.

It's called the landline. People.

Nobody even knows what that is anymore. Bring

out the tech grouch everybody. Where is he? Bakelite? Oh, no, I have it right here.
Only good phone's a landline, and the phone should be made out of big light,

a classic, bring him back,

that guy, you know, I Carlos will do it and do it, produce that again, if I've ever, if the guy ever wants to come back.

Oh, you don't need Carlos to do it. It's all you, it's all it's all personal. Nobody, somebody

produced the whole thing is a piece. I need a I need a videographer. I mean, I, I could do it myself, but I'm not gonna do that. It's you know, me.

I'm still hoping you get the microphones done by Christmas. No, I'm sure you're not gonna, you're not going to bring

back. I'll talk about that after this when we do our later. Well, listen, the microphone problem is like, I'm not so sure that that company that appears to be making the microphones that we're trying to OEM, is the company. Oh,

man, this is. Is going to be another failed exit strategy. The whole party everyone's talking about, Hey, man, I hear you guys got an exit strategy with microphones. Mark halls from Mark Hall actually bought, he gave me as a gift, a microphone. Yes, a Neumann replica made in ah, was it? Well, I'm sure it's from China, but maybe it was Brazil or something. It looks exactly like the big Neumann, you know, the $8,000 Neumann. Yeah,

it's beautiful. I have one of those myself. Do they handmade by somebody who put it together? Oh, it has the Telefunken logo on the logo on it. Now this original U 47 is what we're talking about.

Yes, that's the one, the big one, the big, the big the one that's a big, giant tube. Mike, yeah, the one they have at NPR or at at crooked media, crooked media,

crooked media. Maybe the ones, the ones

we're going to put stickers on when they go out of business because of their because of their union. Union contract, union Good luck. Hey, no union contract here. But I would like to say in the morning to you, the man who put the C in the curry Dvorak microphone company, say hello to my friend on the other end, the one and only Mr. John C

Dvorak. Actually, it's curry. Dvorak, audio products. Oh, I'm

sorry. Audio products,

let's get that straight. All right, hi in the morning to you, Mr. Adam curry, also in the morning, ships and sea boosts the ground, feet in the air. Substantite in the morning to the trolls.

So thank you very much. Who posted that cotton gin? Cotton Gin, keep doing that. I like that. We had a peak of 2274 in the troll room. It's dropped down to 2118 that cotton gin. I'd like you to do that every single time so I can know. Well, he gave me the peak listen moment of the show, oh, which is kind of cool. Yeah, I like that. He is kind of cool. He does a graph. He has a graph, he has a graph, graph, yeah, he has a chart, a graph. And you can

now, he's got to take it to the next level, which is, have arrows at the different points in the chart, saying, talked about this, talked about that, so we could talk about this. So we can see, when you bring some of your topics up, and you see the dip. Will know the reason,

why and how come. It's when I bring some of my topics up, not when you bring some of your topics up. Yes. Okay, so the trolls are in the troll room, which you can join@trollroom.io or you can participate live. This is a fantastic invention of podcasting, 2.0 you get one of those modern podcast apps. I use podcast guru because it does video, does all kinds of stuff, and it does these. It does live
as well. So you get alerted when we when we send out the batch signal at the beginning of the show, and then all you have to do is tap it, and then, boom, you got to stream live, and you can listen in, and it's the same app that you don't have to use a different app, you don't have to go to a different website or something like that, even though you can, if you don't want to, if you don't use podcast apps. Got to wonder what you're
listening to the show on? Yeah? Just, just a thought, well, you don't, do you use a podcast app?

No, I listen to everything on the web. Interesting.

I mean, you just go direct to their website. Or do you go

to the time this? Yes, almost Yes, I go to the website. Sometimes I end up on Apple

on the you know. So Apple just released podcast.apple.com so you can now use the apple podcasts on the website, which you used to be able to do, but now they've upgraded it so it's even worse, which is phenomenal how they did that.

It's even worse.

It is worse. I don't know those guys. I I feel for that. Why

don't they hire you for a short one month stint as a consultant to bring their their quality up to par.

No, no. Why would they get it for free? They just listen to the the podcasting, 2.0 board meeting every Friday. Nobody thinks like that. No, they do. They believe me, there's people from the apple. It doesn't

mean you. They shouldn't hire you for a one month stint.

Okay? First of all, um, I would never do that because I'm unhireable and they don't have no one really wants to hear what I have. The last time I talked to someone Apple podcast, the guy laughed at me and then he quit. He was running the show. Employees,

ladies and gentlemen, bring in Adam curry. Hire Adam.

No, actually, I like the team over there, but I this is not a profit center for Apple. They lose money on the team.

It's called a lost leader. It makes money in a different sort of way, right?

So it's all about the experience. So they did. Added transcripts, which we, we did they have joy Oh, they, that they, you know what? I'd love to be in the apple. Joy Division, if I can be there, I'm, I'm open for business people, yeah. Joy boy, we'll call you, okay. Oh, let me write that down. It's another good I like Joy Division, but joy boy, Joy boy, Joy boy, yes. Oh, you know what? That's it. No agenda. Hi, I'm a no agenda. Joy boy, see it's on my T shirt. So we, we do not
participate in programs like, what is it? Patreon, where you have all kinds of levels, and you have to use apps to subscribe. And by the way, do you see the the the Wall Street Journal article about podcasting? Would you like to hear one paragraph from, I

would like you to Yes, yes. Okay,

podcasts used to be ad lite oases. Not anymore.

Now. What? What

add what? Add light, l, I, G, H, T, so light on, add light. They were oases of light, lightness of ads, very, just a sprinkling of ads, you know, like use code, bong, Gino, yeah, there is, yeah. Well, apparently not anymore. No, ads in the second quarter of this year took up an average of how much do you think of podcast runtime? What percentage

an hour? Can I just give a percentage out of an hour? Yeah? Ads, yeah. Well, under, over in the old light days, it would be five minutes an hour. Maybe I would say now it be. I would say 10 minutes max. No,

no, no, no, no, it's not that bad. It's 11. Well, 10.9% of podcast run times. So in this show, which is 180 minutes, you'd have 18 minutes of ads.

Well, considering what you have on a radio station,

which is 18 minutes per hour, yeah, 18 minutes to 20 Yeah?

20 minutes an hour, I would say yes, yes. That's that's still light, and we're

moving, of course, more in that direction with inserted, you know, the did I tell you that? Tune in, you know, tune in the app. Tune in.

Yeah, you already bitched about okay, well,

then I won't bitch about it anymore. In 2024 How much do you think podcasters collected in ad revenue per hour of programming per listener?

Oh, yeah, per hour per listener, I would say

$1 Ha, six cents, six cents, six off, six cents. So they're ruining everyone's experience. For you are when you listen to a podcast that has ads, the value they place on you is six cents. Good luck slave. We, however, run no ads, so we value you highly. This

is interesting because the network TV is always, usually budget $1 per person per viewers. So if Network 10 million viewers, that networker, cable, network, if you have 10 million viewers of uh NCIS, your budget is ten million Wow. Well,

it used to so I think that just with these, with these numbers, you're just going to see more ads in podcasts. There's no other way. And the thing that they all forget is that it's unlimited inventory. You're not limited like radio by 24 hours, so there's no way you can create what is the term I'm

looking that's the problem, the unlimited inventory aspect to Yeah, you

can't create scarcity. That's the term. You can't create artificial scarcities

to go longer, yes, just two more ads.

Anyway, we, we decided that was never going to be for us, and not because of the money. We just didn't want to do any, just didn't want to, no, it didn't want to do any, any meetings. It's a pain in the ass. Yes. So instead, we decided to go value for value, which we coined the term, and we, I mean, it wasn't that hard to figure out, but it was kind of a we
didn't just we discovered it more than invented it. It's like, Hey, if you, if you ask people to just send you whatever they think it's worth this, it's much better, because people don't feel a need. They can do it whenever they want. That means it's roller coaster for us, but we're here almost 17 years. We're still hanging in there by our fingernails. We're hanging in I'm glad I have a birthday. Got a lot of 60 donations today, which I'm very happy. I can't wait to read
them. And thank everybody and you. We also say you can, you can just hit us with time, talent or treasure. And that's the that's the beauty of our. Podcast. It's really about the producers. You're not listeners. You're producers. It is your job to produce the program, which means keep it going financially, but also add your talents. And people have a lot of talent. People have a lot of information. Actually, this is a special, a special donation segment, boots on the ground.
You know, we had asked these reports are out there saying, oh, 33 nurses died suddenly. Well, we know that we have a lot of people working in as nurses, registered nurses, doctors, all kinds of people who work in the field. And I have a quick boots on the ground from leaf. Who is a nurse? Adam, I'm a nurse on a sustaining donation. Thank you so delivering time, talent and treasure. And I have not seen a recent sudden die off of nurses. However, what I have seen is an absolute explosion of pots,
which I was not familiar with. This term I thought was plain old, television, telephone system, but it stands for Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome among my young female co workers. Have you ever heard of this?
No, and

neither had I. He explains it's a syndrome, meaning its cause is not well understood, but has to do with uh, autonomic cardiovascular regulation, the rates among the under 25 females is probably 10% on a syndrome that is supposed to be 0.2% it's a diagnosis of exclusion. So it takes a while to diagnose. Once you rule out everything else, you get diagnosed based on the symptoms, also the viral diabetes thing, type one is usually triggered by a viral infection. We aren't
really sure why. So there is something going on. It's not that they're dying off in great numbers, but 10% of this syndrome doesn't sound good.

No, not when it was supposed to be point oh two, yeah. So

we are thinking,

what changed in society? Ah,

you know, it's, it's,

let me think

it's, probably, it's plastics.

Could it be micro plastics in the dye

is I'm really, I got it.

You got it? What climate change? There

you go. Due to climate change. Due to climate change. All right, so that's one way you can support us. Another way is, well, our artists, our artists always provide us multiple pieces of artwork to choose from, to put in the any album art for every single show we think it's useful and fun. It's just another fun thing to do instead of fun, instead of having AI write up some crappy description of which is what they talked about in the show, you know, AI does that for us.
When I do the transcript, another podcasting 2.0 invention, AI will then that we use otter.ai, or that's what I you know, the one that can't get your name right, keeps calling you John, C, j, h, n, s, I suddenly Indian, yes. So it'll do a summary of the show. So here's the summary from the last show. Tell me if you'd like to put this into our description.
The Conversation covers various topics, including the upcoming interview with Kamala Harris, the arrest of telegram Founder Pavel Durov, and the political dynamics surrounding Donald Trump. They discuss the challenges of free speech on platforms like x controlled by Linda yakarino and and the potential influence of Saudi money, which I don't think we ever mentioned. The Conversation also touches on the impact of climate change on mosquito populations and the spread of
diseases like Eastern Equine Encephalitis. Additionally, they analyzed the legal implications of the superseding indictment against Trump, emphasizing the Supreme Court's ruling on presidential immunity and the challenges for special counsel Jack Smith improving Trump's actions were unofficial. I wouldn't turn that podcast on in a million years. That sounds horrible, because we do it with pizzazz and with humor and with jokes, yuck, yuck. So no, we'd rather have a funny piece of
art. And people go, Oh, let me see what these guys are doing. Let's see what those guys are up to. So I know right, if

you can't say it's wrong,

no, it's not wrong, but it's, that's not marketing, that's, that's anti marketing. It's like, do not tune into this. Whatever you do, it's boring. So not boring was friends. Actually,

there's an interesting you're making an interesting point about the boring. So it at its base level. AI is dull, yes, humorless? Well, of course, it has to be humorless, because the humor, artificial humor, a hard you need artificial humor somehow when AI can write jokes, yeah, come back, genuinely funny, yeah. Give us a call.

Give us a call, yeah, give us a. Pretty good. One of you can write jokes. So instead, we come up with a funny title, like corn sweat, which neither of us had heard of. A lot of people in the in the north, in the Midwest were like, Hey, man, corn sweat is a real deal, man, all right, gotcha. We never told us about it before. Yeah. And now and then we choose a beautiful, I thought, great piece of art from Francisco Scaramanga, which was the kind of Elvira esque cheesecake lady
spray painting. No agenda, zero impact, which is what we claim to have on society. Zero impact in graffiti style, or, as you would say, graffiti. And we both liked it. We both thought it was a good piece. Well, we

it was funny because it was a fallback on the fact that we couldn't really come up with anything old. Most of the art was corn sweat, yeah,

which just didn't work. Sloth fever was, we didn't really talk about sloth fever one clip, maybe, yeah,

sloth fever was no good. No, it was no good. It was just a rough go in terms of

the art. It was Sir Shug faux diddley did the molasses of subversion, which we looked at, but it wasn't really a great piece as a product shot I saw you use the free podcast sign from Darren as the newsletter artwork. I was good. I liked that piece. Nestworks did the politics of joy, which wasn't anything, wasn't compelling. I actually like
Darren's curry Dvorak. Girls with, I'm not big on the cheesecake, but for some reason it's the two girls, one saying both wearing no agenda T shirts, one saying curry, one saying Dvorak. It was actually kind of good. Yeah, a lot of corn, sweat stuff. What else was there Black joy comics or Blogger? Let the prompt jockey extraordinaire, no peanut butter. No agenda. Peanut butter. Why? None of that really hit us. Did it? Was it really?
No, yeah, and then, and then you looked at it was just, it was a good piece, the Scaramanga thing, it stood out, you know, green, oh, I kind of like tanta Neal's tools that didn't work, but it didn't work.

It didn't work. No, this is too can it was something confusing about

it, yeah, hammer with no Hammerhead, screwdriver with no shaft, saw with no blade. We got the idea just didn't quite work. So thank you Francisco Scaramanga for bringing up,

by the way, I don't know why he contributes to heart. Doesn't make sense. It's love

hate relationship, man. You know he's just trying. I see John G do came in late with the Swiss Army surrender, which probably wouldn't have been chosen, but at least he tried to do a Swiss army knife with no blade, yes, but you know what? We appreciate all of it. All like

the I like the I like the piece with the instead of a blade, you have a surrender flag, yes,

but it's cute. It's cute, but the curry Dvorak is not right. No agenda off center. Yeah, too small. Yeah, we're very discerning here.

We're horrible about that. We're

kind of horrible, but we take

the moment to become art directors. Yes, we're and all these artists know that art directors are all a holes, and

we play it to a T, ladies and gentlemen. So along with that, we also have treasure. We'd like to thank our executive producers and Associate Executive producers. So the way now anybody can support the show with any
amount. In fact, we have a layaway night and a layaway dame, so both who have been just supporting the show with whatever amount they choose, on whatever regular basis they choose, and been doing that for a while, so both of them will be joined the roundtable getting that beautiful Knight and or Dame ring. But in the case of the executive producers per show, if you're $200 or above, you get an Associate Executive Producer title, and we read your note, $300 and above, executive
producer, and we read your note as well. And you get a credit, which is a real credit. You can use it anywhere. You can put it on your LinkedIn profile. It'll be recognized as such by anyone who's a Hollywood douchebag or, you know, it impresses people some places. And if there's any question, you can say, oh, yeah, look at my imdb.com it's real. Oh, okay, and you'll see some real Hollywood names in there as well, which you can point out.
And so let's thank them. Right now, I'm looking at this first donation, which is Beltre Lama in the town of Erika, which now neither of this sounds right. Right? So this is a Dutch donation, $333.33 let me see, because it says, see the email, but I don't have this email. Have you seen this email? No, I wouldn't be

able to read it if I did. It

says Z email, Na, Adam found quirano out. Erika on quirano. So it's from someone named kurana. Let me double check, make sure I'm not missing this.

I don't have anything, but it was sent to you specifically.

Oh, wait a minute. No, I have quirano here. Here was this? Hold on a second. What did this come in? Oh, did this come in? Friday? Here we go. Oh, okay, so this is all in Dutch, so I'll just have to read it in Dutch. Backslater linked, taken, said Naya frack. Taken, the answer of Trump. Check this video. This is main tip of the quartal tiny fault. Doner for my comrade, Van leywa. Shout out to Mickey van leywa. Picasso Doner and a producer word of triple, China is asshole, okay? And it
says we understood that one, didn't we? Okay? All right, it's, it's kind of odd that it's that it's that it's in Dutch, but I'll be happy to comply. China
is asshole. China is asshole. China is asshole. And

quirano Martin. That's his name soon to be night of the flatter lands. He says he's celebrating his birthday on September 6. So I think that's a show day. So we can send in a note, and we'll make sure send a note in English, so we can make sure we get you on the list. And thank you very much for your support of the no agenda show,

sir loudpipes is in Charlotte, North Carolina. He comes with the same amount, three, three, 3.33, and he says, Happy Birthday, Adam. Thank you. And he said, Then he signs off with Sir loud pipes, the Baron of Mecklenburg County. No agenda. Is your exit strategy from the insanity we're

gonna die spitting in the mics.

And I wash my thing off once in a while in the dishwasher. A tip,

oh, you your your spit screen, your windscreen, yeah, it's

one of the metal ones, the best kind, instead of, you know, there's others, there's certain kinds of spit screens. But this is really a killer. It's a good one, but it does get nasty. Yeah, needs to get washed once in a while in the dishwasher.

333 dot 33 from Jason Edmonds in Johnson City, Tennessee. Hey, Adam and John. I regret that it took me this long to get off the douchebag roles. So I'm starting down my path to knighthood. I got hit in the mouth by my buddy Spencer back in the spring, and I haven't missed a show since. I regret that I didn't know about you in 2020 but better late than never. Gentlemen, thank you for your courage and for slowing down the shrinking of my amygdala. Please censor Spencer some baby making

Ah, I humbly request health and healing karma aimed her way so she will make a speedy recovery. Yes, here it comes for your mom. You've got karma. Everybody. Pray for mom.

Eli the coffee guy, bensonville, Illinois, 20901, happy birthday, Adam and Happy Labor Day to all those. That's right, it's labor Labor Day. We say Labor Day weekend. No one of the yeah, do all those and get mo nation. I'll be smoking a brisket in Illinois. Okay, getting the right brisket to smoke if you're going to do one, that is what takes to work. I'll be smoking a brisket using a brown sugar coffee rub. Coffee
rubs are not unusual. Producers should visit gigawatt Coffee roasters.com and use code ITM for 20% off your coffee order, because coffee is not only good for drinking, but makes a mean barbecue rub. There are recipes online, stay caffeinated. Eli, the coffee guy,

you know Tina, she sometimes does a rub on the Tri Tip, and she actually uses gigawatt coffee, espresso, and it's really good. She does it with, with the brown shirt. I'm sure that it's all wrong according to you, but I like what she I never said that, no, but typically you're like that. You typically just would poo, poo it. But if you'd showed up to what, since when? If you'd showed up to my birthday party, you could have had

some, well, you could always ship me some. Sandra,

Ferreira is in Brooklyn, New York, enemy territory. $200 Happy Birthday. Adam. Thank you for always making me laugh. John, please send some jobs karma our way, says Sandra, and we're happy to do so. Stand by
jobs, jobs, jobs and jobs. Let's vote for jobs karma. The

list is Oh. Linda lupekin. She's here again, once again, the Lakewood, Colorado. And she says, uh, she wants jobs karma for a res, and she wants to mention that for a resume that gets results. You visit English, English, I was going to try to get through no for a resume that gets results. Visit image makers. Inc.com, for all your executive resume and job search needs, that's image makers. Inc, with a K and work with Linda Lou Dutchess of jobs and writer of resumes. Congrats
on having your on having your hair. Adam,

thank you. Linda Lou, jobs, jobs,
jobs and jobs, jobs, she reads the

newsletter. Yes, very funny. Very funny. Yes, she does read the newsletter. Thank you to our executive and Associate Executive producers. There more people to thank in our second segment, $50 and above, we will read your your your donation, and your name and your location. And there's a lot of people sent in $60 so I'll be looking forward to thanking all of them. And of course, under 50, we don't make any mention of
that for reasons of anonymity. Also, you can set up your sustaining donation, which most people do under 50, you can do 50 or like Sir Kevin McLaughlin, Duke of Luna 808. Every single show, and that's fine. We love that everyone should consider doing that. In addition to any extra donations you throw our way, it is all very much appreciated. Keep the show going for another four more years. No agenda donations.com. Thank you again to our Associate Executive producers and executive
producers for this episode. Our
formula is this. We go out. We hit people in the mouth.

Well, I hate to say it, but they're ratcheting it up. John, they're ratcheting it up.

They've been ratchet ratcheting it up.

No, but this, this is the new new this is the new thing. And for this, we go back to my old stomping grounds of New Jersey. Is bad, people. It's very, very bad. Two
deaths from the West Nile virus are now being reported in southern New Jersey, one in Mercer County, another in Cumberland County. Meanwhile, New York City seeing a surge in cases. 10 people have now been confirmed infected. There are 10 other cases around New York State. And with people headed outdoors this holiday weekend, Governor Hochul reminding
everyone to be careful. Use a spray repellent to protect yourself against mosquitoes possibly carrying West Nile next week, New York city plans to resume mosquito spraying in Queens and Manhattan.

Yeah, so that's just that's a light version of it. But despite the spraying, two people died in New Jersey. Now we have to bring in some, some new terms for the triple E, the Eastern Equine Encephalitis is the stuff that makes your brain swell and burst out of your head. Of course, we know what causes this
week, a new hampshire man died of Eastern Equine Encephalitis, or triple E, after being bit by a mosquito. U S, health officials are warning that cases of mosquito borne diseases like triple E and West Nile are on the rise this year, especially in the northeast, hotter temperatures, more severe weather events and piles of plastic trash have created environments where mosquitoes thrive, allowing insects to
reach areas formerly inhospitable to them. For example, dengue cases are rising in Europe, where the disease used to actually be quite rare. The number of European countries with a self sustaining population of a mosquito breed known to carry Dengue fever has grown from eight to 13 in the last decade. And it's not just that diseases are spreading to new areas. Mosquito season is also getting longer because of
climate change. A 2023 study by the nonprofit Climate Central found that 173 locations across the US have seen an increase in the number of mosquito days. The average increase for those locations is 16 days. But some areas in the country have had their mosquito days actually extended by much longer. These 10 cities have at least an extra month. Of days that are favorable to mosquitoes. So

it's all, of course, because of climate change, to climate change. But we have the new term, mosquito days. How many mosquito days this year? So I like that. It's a nice mosquito days, a new metric. Yeah, it's a new metric,

yeah, and it's up and it's up a number of percentage points. Yeah, number.

Just quite a number, and we need to make it a little we can kind of bring that home for people and give them a little more visual. NBC Today show is great at doing these things for
those heading to a lake for Labor Day, be on high alert mosquitoes. Look for still fresh water, and be sure to apply a deep based insect repellent on top of your sunscreen. In Missouri, John Proctor wishes his family had known about the danger of mosquito borne illnesses. His 18 year old son, known as BB, has a long road to recovery. He's on a ventilator, paralyzed from the neck down after contracting West Nile virus from a mosquito bite his dad believes he got while
playing with their dog in the backyard. It's such a small horror story. Insignificant creature can take a perfectly 100% healthy human being and it just causing havoc on his body that fast. It only takes one mosquito

to get you. It only takes one mosquito to catch you.

One is that? Well, you had the one that guy in New Hampshire, which they keep talking about.

Yeah, the two in New Jersey. And now this kid, poor kid. So

we have four out of a population of three, 50 million. Be

afraid. Be afraid, if that doesn't scare you. Oh, please. We've got plenty more where that came from. NBC, we're
heading into the holiday weekend, and a special guest no one wants on their travels is coming along anyway. I'm talking about covid cases surging, hospitalizations up in almost every state, and deaths double what they were in the spring. We still seem to be hitting a stride of covid normalcy, with some some travelers even opting not to normalcy so covid doesn't disrupt their trips. Some,

oh no, these horrible travelers opting not to test so covid. Covid doesn't disrupt it. I hope everybody tested before they came to my surprise birthday party. It could have been a super spreader event. Bring in
Doctor John Torres. Dr Torres, why the rise right now? Is it mostly fueled by all the travel that we're doing? Or is this new strain kind of really contagious, or both, you're leading the witness. This is not the guest you want to travel with or travel to. I think what's happening here is
kind of a confluence of a couple different things. Number one, the variant is changing, and we know the variants can continue to change, but in this case, it's changing one that's more contagious, luckily, it's not more deadly, and that's the good news behind that. But on top of that, certain things are happening now that we haven't had happen over the last year and a half or so. You know, people are aren't caring as much about getting covid. They aren't testing as much. They aren't
getting vaccinated. It's a little bit delayed, and they're certainly not wearing mastering like that. So, you know, whole factors, all those added together, are, I think, are causing this rise here. But by far the biggest one is that variant changing to a more contagious status, which is going to happen continuing as we go on here. Oh, yeah,

as we gone, continue to change. So, yeah, yeah. Well, could you give me a tip like no agenda, gives me a tip of the day, gives me some good products to use. Give me some interesting information. Could you give me a tip for the travel.
In terms of travel, what steps should people be taken to safely enjoy their time away, instead of the sort of like, out of sight, out of mind mentality when it comes to getting the virus,

stay safe everybody. You
know, I think that's an important thing to bring up. You know, number one, the virus is still the virus. Is a virus is still the virus. Can you continue to do things that's done right now we're seeing higher cases than we've seen in the last year and a half. But like I mentioned, it's more contagious, but likely it's not more deadly, but it still is a deadly virus, and people still end up in the hospital and dying from

it. Why hold on a second. It's not deadly, but it still could be deadly. Maybe it's deadly. Do you know anyone who's had covid at this moment in time, at this actually, I do you Yes. JC,

Jesse and Theodore all have covid. Are they?

Are they dying? Well, they're

not happy.

Well, tell them not to travel. He

got it because he went to Montreal for some event and got it on the way back on a bus ride

the most jabbed country in the world. Yeah, and

everyone was got sick on the bus, everybody, yeah, he brought it here locally and gave it to the kids and his

wife. He's work. He's the patient zero.

He's patient zero for the Bay Area. Now,
there's a variety of reasons people aren't aren't getting the vaccines. There's a variety of reasons people aren't masking or testing. Is because they're horrible people. Those are things that still work. You know, the vaccine granted. No, they don't too late to get it for this weekend, but you definitely want to get it for the fall season coming up, because it's a new variant out there. Masking I always carry
mine. The last couple flights I've had, I've wanted the entire flight because people are coughing and hacking around me. I certainly don't want to get covid, or certainly don't want to spread it to them. Ah. Yeah,

I wore a I'm a good man. I'm a good man, and I wore a mask the whole flight.
And then think about that social distance, and we used to do if you're sick, social distance, especially if there's somebody that's vulnerable in the place you're going to Christina,

he's the he's Dr John over at the NBC Today Show You can't stop talking. He's a chatterbox. But wait, just when you thought it couldn't get even better than this, the miracle cure just got more miraculous. Let's, let's
talk treatments. We're learning from some new studies that weight loss, drugs like govi might actually help prevent covid. What do we know about that this

is amazing. I mean, I mean, would you have a hangnail ozempic? And
this is one that's surprising a lot of people, because it's not a result that has been expected. But what they found out in the large we go V trial, 17,000 people, that of those that got covid, the death rate was decreased by 33% and this is the important part, that death rate was increased almost
immediately. In other words, as soon as they started taking the drug, not once, the weight came off, because we know that obesity can cause issues if you get covid, and so you know losing that weight can be important, but in this case, something else seem to be going on here is another factor that
scientists definitely need to dig into. And I think the important point here is to realize that this is a study that needs more studies to try and figure out what's happening here and why this is benefiting the people, and is it something that can benefit all of us and so hopefully, so keeping our fingers crossed. It as we find out more about covid, we get more answers as well, potentially exciting if they can find out why that's happening. Dr John Torres,

thank you so much. So exciting. Oh, but, but, I mean, I don't have another clip, but now I do. Scientists have discovered that ozempic is literally the fountain of youth. It can turn back the clock on a host of diseases. This is, I mean, John, we've got to get on this train. This ozempic fixes everything. How could we it's been around for 18 years or so. Yeah, now

they're just discovering all this. I guess they never studied it at all. Is that what you're saying?

I have no idea, but it's, it's fixes everything.

Well, you gotta get, gotta have it. It has to have a lot more power near the end of its patent, uh, period, because you can GOP.

One is not patentable. It's, you know, the only thing that's patented is there is the injector. That's why you can compound it. But you got to have the brand name. You don't want some dupe. No, I want to do well. I

think that you're missing the point of all these diseases. Oh

no,

because the big one coming our way any minute, which will kill a lot more people, and it's a lot deadlier, is polio,

yeah, yeah, yeah, polio has a resurgence. I've noticed that in

a bunch of clips, because war

torn outbreak in Gaza, yes, war torn Gaza.

And I want to ask a question of you before I play these clips. Okay, I was under the impression, based on what the mainstream media has been telling me most of my life, for years, for decades, that polio was eradicated. That's from the world stage, eradicated, yep. And

that's why you need you've heard this too, yes. And the reason I heard it is because everyone told me that you need the MMR shot for the measles, because, like Polio, we can eradicate this horrible killer, even though I had measles and had chicken pox and all that, and the mumps. So now polio somehow magically appears in war torn Gaza, out of the blue, yes, just in time for, I don't know, vaccine? Is it vaccine? Are they doing sugar cubes?

Oh, funny, it's a vaccine. I

thought I got, I got the sugar cube. I think back in the day,

you know, that's another thing. Well, this will come up in the conversation, okay, yes, it is a oral vaccine. And I actually had the shot. I'm lucky to be alive, yes, indeed. Because, seriously, I'm not lucky to be alive. A

lot of people got polio from the polio vaccination because

they had live virus. And a lot of them, the ones from cutter labs in particular. Yes, indeed, cutter I got that shot you got? Wait, wait, wait,

you got the cutter labs polio vaccine? Yeah, you are lucky to be alive. I

am. Wow. You the people listening to this podcast, should donate to the show in thanks that I lived through it. So I also, I'm lucky to be alive, and then I and I never, you know, they obviously didn't get the bad batch, no, but the but later, years later, I also got the sugar cube, the Sabin. It was so.

Hold on. Hold on. I don't understand if you got the polio vaccine, whether it was the good one or the bad one. Why did you also have to take the sugar cube? Wasn't that one? One and done with the polio drink?

I was duped

with your parents certainly were. Well,

what am I going to do? I can't do anything now. They're both dead. I can't sue him so. So here we go. I

got a sugar cube, and, man, it was trippy. And
war ravaged, Gaza, the United Nations is beginning to administer polio vaccinations. This weekend, more than half a million children are due for the shots. The virus has reemerged in Gaza after more than 10 months of war between Israel and Hamas NPR Kerry Khan reports that with so much of Gaza's infrastructure and ruins, it will be a logistical challenge to vaccinate 600,000 children.
There are many challenges ahead for UN health workers, including getting the vaccines and patients to clinics, as well as keeping the vaccines refrigerated, Israel has agreed to limited pauses in the fighting in certain areas. Hamas has said it will cooperate too. The polio virus has not been present in Gaza for at least 25 years. It was recently detected
in a 10 month old boy who is now partially paralyzed. Doctors say Many factors contribute to polio return, including kids not having access to vaccines during nearly a year of war, wastewater treatment plants are in ruins, and more than 90% of residents have been displaced from their homes and now live in substandard conditions.

So the question, are we sure that Polio is a virus, does that? Has that even been, yeah, determined. I

think it's pretty well confirmed, but it was supposed to be eradicated. That's what gets me.

Well, I know people probably around your age in the UK who still have limp because they had polio as a kid, I mean, but they're, you know, they're now of Medicare age. But I have not seen anyone with polio. Heard of any polio, and how can it be eradicated? This just makes me think, is it from something else? Have we been duped about polio in general? Logical

way to go, considering that you and I have both been told it's been eradicated. Yes, and I know what the definition of eradicated is. Yes, gone. All right. Part Two,
polio, which has been gone from the Gaza Strip for decades, is back as the war there continues, but there is the possibility of good news tomorrow, the United Nations will begin to vaccinate children in Gaza against that preventable and highly contagious virus. It will be an enormous effort, one that NPR international correspondent, a bit trowy will follow from her base in Dubai, and she joins us now. Aya, thanks for being with us. Thank you, Scott.
Tell us about how this vaccination campaign is being rolled out. Well, the UN has really big aims here. They want to reach more than 640,000 children across Gaza to give them two courses of the polio vaccine. It will be given orally in droplets, but it needs Refrigeration at every step. And pretty much Gaza has no electricity. They're just running on generators and fuel that's in short supply. If

they have generators. They have electricity. Sorry, she literally said they have no electricity. They just have generators. Well, what does generator do? It just
it will be given orally in droplets, but it needs Refrigeration at every step. And pretty much Gaza has no electricity. They're just running on generators and fuel that through short supply, another logistical challenge here is that the whole population is displaced, and so
it's not easy for them to reach UNrun clinics. But the UN groups leading this vaccination effort, which is UNICEF and the World Health Organization, they say the most critical factor is a pause in airstrikes so that the vaccines can reach all these children. Now, Israel says it's agreed to short pauses, basically it won't attack for about eight hours a day in specific parts of Gaza for the few days that this campaign is being rolled out. And Hamas says they'll also cooperate.

So we're going to stop the war to give these kids polio and then go back to bombing

polio vaccination, vaccine? Well,

slip of the tongue, or was it didn't Bill Gates, like, kill a whole bunch of children with his polio vaccination. I mean, I don't, I don't

know what it was, but there was some situation India where he got kicked out of the country, I think. And then also in Africa,

I'll take that back. I don't he didn't kill children, but no, he didn't kill there was, there was a Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation sponsored, if I remember correctly, polio vaccination drive, yeah. And there was an India and whole bunch of kids didn't turn out good for them. So who says this isn't some kind of death. Shot to kill these children in Gaza?

Well, I think that would be extreme. Oh,

it's because it's so much more humane than bombing. Yeah, exactly. I was waiting three
How did the the polio spread there in the first place? Doctors tell me this was a combination of factors. You know, you have children Scott that haven't had access to vaccines, but also most of Gaza's hospitals have been destroyed or closed. You also have wastewater treatment plants and desalination plants that have been bombed, so people have
been drinking dirty water to survive. And we know from the Gaza health ministry that more than 40,000 people have been killed by Israeli fire in this war, but we don't have a tally for people who've died from illness. However, we know there's been a huge spike in kids with infections and diarrhea. Children are hungry. They are malnourished. They're living in these overcrowded shelters open in tents with weak immune systems. And do we know how widespread polio could now be in Gaza?
Well, there's already been a case confirmed in a 10 month old baby boy who was active and crawling, and he's now paralyzed in one leg after contracting polio, and he is the first case of polio in
a quarter century in Gaza. Now it comes after the Gaza Health Ministry and the World Health Organization, they sounded the alarm on this in July when they announced that the polio virus had been found in sewage water flowing in the streets around the tents of displaced people, and there are now at least two other suspected cases as well. Now the symptoms for polio show in one out of every 100 to 1000 people. So the doctors I spoke with say this means 1000s of people in Gaza likely already
have contracted polio. It is spreading, and one doctor called it a powder keg.

Hey, asymptomatic, that's a new one.

Asymptomatic polio, because Did they mention they're doing PCR testing? Because that's what I would suspect.

And no. In fact, let me mention this. There was a lead. Be clear, there was a PBS had almost the identical report as the NPR report. It was, it was uncanny. I recorded both of them. I said, what? I can't use both of these almost identical. They. This is a program. This has been put out for a reason. I think the four kind of explains part of the reason. And it was very

I actually have three clips from the NPR, I don't know if you want to hear them after yours, but no, this is, this is NPR, oh, I'm sorry, you said PBS. Yes. Okay, here we go. No, I

said PBS. Had the identical report, and I had to decide which. Yeah, you took we both

got. NPR, okay, no problem.

And so here's cake. I'm sorry, here's the end.
Yes, powder keg. And that powder keg would present a risk to other neighboring countries, wouldn't it? Oh,

wow. NPR is really rocking the edits these days. That's
great. That powder keg would present a risk to other neighboring countries, wouldn't it. Whoa. Extremely so. I mean, you know, for weeks now, you have Israel's military vaccinating its own soldiers, even if they've already been vaccinated against polio before, because polio spreads through water systems, aquifers and in droplets in the air. And so not only could the virus spread to Israel, Egypt
and Jordan, it could also reach Europe and the US. You know, two years ago, an unvaccinated Orthodox Jewish man in upstate New York contracted polio, and the virus spread there, and the strain of that virus was traced to Jerusalem and London, where there's frequent travel back and forth. And so to try to understand more about this, I reached out to Dr Jeffrey
Goldhagen. He is a pediatric professor at the University of Florida and a global health expert, there is no reason not to expect the disease to spread from Gaza to the surrounding countries, to unvaccinated communities in Israel, and from there to Europe, the UK and United States. Only way of stopping the spread is by a successful, rigorous polio vaccine campaign,

okay? Oh, hold on. First of all, very anti semitic report, NPR, you're making people afraid of Jews, because you know that Jew might have polio. Second, are we now going to see the campaign in Europe and in the United States to to get your polio booster?

Well, did you hear the little the little gotcha in there was the Israeli armed forces were getting a shot, whether they had a shot or not or not. Yeah, so it's a booster. So they're gonna try to this is a money maker.

This is genocide. This is my opinion. And what happened to cholera, good old cholera. That's, that's our

is coming. That's kidding. It's

our disease of choice.

You gotta do these one at a time.

So. Put it in the Red Book, cholera on deck for Gaza. Yeah,

cholera should have been I would have guessed that cholera would come up in the timeline before polio. Me too. But no, they've decided to go with polio. You watch

it's coming, everybody. You got to get a booster for polio. Babies in America, babies,
oh man,

so disheartened. Never let up. They don't Well, speaking of Never Letting up, this is one of your favorite topics. There's a
growing movement of social media influencers promoting raw or unpasteurized milk. Wow. It's coincided with a recent spike, by

the way, is raw milk? By definite, is that or unpasteurized? Is the is raw is unpasteurized equals raw milk.

I think it would, yeah, yeah. Well,

these darn social, probably on Tiktok, these horrible influencers promoting
raw or unpasteurized milk, milk, it's coincided with a recent spike in sales across the country. Half of US states giving farmers the power to sour raw milk direct to consumers.

We got to know we got on alive those farmers. It is good
for business, but health officials say the consequences could be dangerous. Chanel call on

a second stop when he said it's good for what business for the for the farm business to sell raw milk, it's a pain in the ass. Yes, we have a raw milk dairy up in near Port, Angeles, and we go there all the time. This guy, they have to work like, 10 times harder than a normal dairy, yeah, to produce raw milk, it is not good for business.

No, I'm with you. I'm with you. But maybe there's polio in the raw milk. You never know on this dairy farm in here. Yes, coming Arrington,
Delaware, we take a clean towel off of the team. Stephanie Knutson is busy milking her cows. So the cows are milked twice a day. This milk gets pasteurized and sold at grocery stores across the country. She's a good doobie. We're milking her into this bucket milk are down here, but come January, Knutson hopes to sell it raw. We have always drank raw milk and that we produce on the farm. I'm a big
proponent of this being regulated. People are having a heart and regulation could soon be coming as Delaware considers legalizing the sale of raw milk, amid a recent and growing movement online. I drink raw cream in my coffee every morning. Raw Farm Show me raw farm dairy. If I'm going to do milk, it's going to be raw milk that I get at the farmer's market. Celebrities, influencers, even some politicians, are endorsing raw milk, milk that is not been pasteurized or boiled to kill dangerous germs

like polio. We had due to climate change. Now it's due to raw milk polio. So let's bring in Dr gounder. You'll recall, she is the one who

would before you do that, it just comes across. I'm thinking, this raw milk, anti raw milk thing has been going on for I know we've been covering it for over a year.

Oh, much longer than that.

And I like to know why, why is it? Why is it an issue? Who cares? It's a very small minority of dairies that even try to make it, and most of them are over regulated already, because you have to have a lot of inspections, because you have to be careful. There

it is, more inspections, more inspections, control of the food supply. Hello. It's about control. That's all that. It's not about your health. It's about control. That's the that's the only thing I can see. What else is it? Well, maybe Dr gounder can help us understand. We
ask CBS News Medical contributor, Doctor Celine gounder to weigh in. There is no nutritional benefit from drinking raw milk. People like the idea of it. Maybe they think it tastes better. Maybe they think it's, quote, more natural, yes, but it's really no more natural than drinking water that has not been treated,

which I also drink out of my well and all that bacteria can lead to health problems like polio, E
coli, Campylobacter, salmonella, these can give you fever, abdominal pain, diarrhea, kidney failure. Listeria can cause fetal abnormalities, even fetal death. This year, doctors found high concentrations of the bird flu virus in the raw milk of infected dairy cattle. Salmonella outbreak linked to raw milk sickened 170 people on the West Coast. Oh,

no, oh, bird flu in your milk. No. Good. Let's wrap it up here these crazy influencers. We've got to put a stop to this. So
why is raw milk popularity and access still growing? I think this goes back to people's lack of trust in public health and wanting to feel like they can make choices for themselves. Unfortunately, in this case, that is not the healthy choice the CDC, the American Academy of Pediatrics and the American
Medical Association all agree. But in a bid to help struggling dairy farmers, it's been very difficult to operate on the positive side of things for 20 some years now, more than half of US states created a pathway for raw milk to be sold directly to consumers within state lines. With raw milk, we can set the price, and that national average price for raw milk is 10 to $14 a gallon from
our co op. You know, we might be getting a buck 50 a gallon. So without federal oversight, the standards are inconsistent. States have been left to come up with their own rules. They are really, literally all over the place, from pretty much incidental sales being totally unregulated, and all you have to do is put a warning label on it to say it's unpasteurized to other states that require, you know, a lot more high level testing, while doctors still warn against consumption,
farmers like the knudsens see an opportunity. She's opt to meet this growing milk market. It can absolutely help us to thrive, not just survive.

Well, it's a very confusing series of reports there, other than I'm afraid to drink it.

You know, what's annoying about these reporting, this reporting and these reports, is they say stuff like, Well, yeah, and then some states don't do this, and some states do that, and some states, what states are we talking about? Named the states? What kind of reporting is it to say some states do this and some states do that without telling us specifically the states? Does it take that much work for a reporter to make a phone call find out what the states are
apparently? Is it too much work to tell the public that they're reporting to what states they're talking about.

Is it reporting, or is it mind control?

You tell me, yeah. All I know is that these this journalism sucks. It stinks. There's no details whatsoever this like, oh, it's up 10% what does that mean?

Are you are you done? Yeah, I'm

John, C, D, bore today.

Well, they mentioned the bird flu, which has kind of fallen by the wayside, which is very slip that in, yeah. Well, we've, we've, I have one bird flu report we just had last weekend, the Gillespie County Fair, which is the large, the oldest fair in the state of Texas, and right around the corner from the Texas State Fair. Yep, this is the one. This is the oldest Texas State Fair I have not, Oh, it's great. I've

been there. Well, it's one of the best state fairs in the country.

Well, we have the, we have the oldest here in Galatia. It was, it was cute. You know, we had throughout the you know, there's everyone with their prize cows and their pigs and and cowboys everywhere. No, it was nice. It was kind of old school

auction by a pig. Yep, they

had the auction.

Did you buy a pig on the hoof?

No, I didn't go. Are you kidding me? It was too hot. However, in Minnesota, they have a state fair with new regulations.
Sounds of The Steele County Fair are in full force. That includes a melody of moves, Melody Maddie Murphy brought her cow named collarbone, hoping for the top pro. It's exciting. I love doing it with bird flu infecting some Minnesota cows this year, collarbone needed to be tested before she could appear and

notice the music change.
Bird Flu infecting some Minnesota cows this year, collarbone needed to be tested before she could appear at the fair. We have to make sure to test all the cows. Are milking cows and make sure that they're negative before we bring them into the barn. Minnesota Health officials are requiring testing of some cows for the h5 and one virus at county fairs and State Fair. Have
to take extra precautions, like we did during covid. This is the first time at the Steele County Fair, they've ever had to do this type of testing. This year is a little bit different. It's a little stressful for all of us. Sandy jurly with the fair, make sure the tests have been done. As the trailers come in, I ask for their paperwork. Wait. Feel it's very important. We we don't want to have any of our animals come
down with this. The Minnesota Department of Animal Health feels it's important, so we're going to follow what they're requesting. We

do what we are told to do papers. Please of your cow, yes, test your cows. Yeah, you obey? Yes, you will obey. Indeed. I'd like melody of moves.

I wrote a Dennis's show title. Yeah, it's a possibility.

Let me just there's some messaging here in this, in these two Ukraine stories, it's a two stories, but basically the, you know, it's the same story, but two reports with two similar, I think, messages which need to be discussed, and these come from let me see, is this a US report? No, I think these are foreign, foreigner reports.
Al, let's talk about a subject that we have talked about so often here, the Russia, Ukraine war, and the fact that US made us provided f 16 are now flying in the skies of this

us made. You know, F 16 are sold to people and countries all over the world. But then they have to point out it's us made. Well, yeah. You know, we make all the stuff and
the fact that US made us provided f 16 are now flying in the skies of Ukraine in this war there. But the Wall Street Journal, our friend Laura Seligman, had this scoop today us how, and this is what she is reporting. I want to read from her article that a Ukrainian pilot was killed in combat when his F 16 jet fighter crashed on Monday, just weeks after the
first of the American made aircraft arrived in Ukraine. Now this is according to both us and Ukrainian officials, according to Laura seligmans reporting, she goes on to say the pilot died while helping to repel a massive Russian missile attack. Monday, initial reports indicate the jet was not shot down by enemy fire. Us. Officials said the Pentagon referred questions
to the Ukrainian Air Force for comment. The Ukrainian Air Force acknowledged the crash and pilots death in a statement today, Ukraine used the jets for the first time in combat to shoot down Russian missiles during the strikes this week, according to President Volodymyr Zelensky. Okay,

so we have us. Made us. Made us, made and it comes back in the second report,
Ukraine's president announced the sacking of the air force chief in his nightly address, he didn't give a specific reason, but The move came days after an F 16 fighter jet delivered to Ukraine earlier this month from its Western allies was shot down. Ukraine initially said the US made F 16 was shot down by Russian forces, but military analysts suspect it may have been downed in a case of friendly fire. Zelensky statement did not go into detail, a probe into the crash
is underway. Us. Ukrainian and foreign military analysts are investigating the potential causes. They speculate the warplane was shot down accidentally by Ukraine itself using the country's us manufactured Patriot missile system.

So a US made F 16 was shot down by a US made Patriot missile, which I believe to be true. What is this messaging? What am I not understanding? Or what are they trying to say? Here I

got one report, which may include some of this information from my Ukraine clip, but the guy who is the head of the Ukrainian Air Force was fired, fired, yeah, of course. And that was mentioned in those reports.

We just mentioned it. He did. Were you not listening to my report? I

was listening to I was listening specifically to hear that, and I didn't hear it. He

literally said, Zelensky fired his air force chief. Oh, yeah, missed it somehow, yeah. Well, because you are too busy, think I got a better clip than that.

I don't have a better clip than that. Well, no, of course you could, I said, have a different clip. Well, you were thinking about it. Maybe it's possible he was he may have caught me in a moment of thought

or fog. Who knows?
Just play this clip. So today, a Russian guided bomb attack on Ukraine's second largest city killed at least five people and injured dozens more. Authorities in Kharkiv say the bombs hit five locations across the city, including a playground where at least one child died. Others were killed in a nearby apartment building that caught fire as a result of
that attack. Meantime, in Washington, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin met with his Ukrainian counterpart today and condemned Moscow's recent wave of strikes on civilian infrastructure. Let me be clear. Let me be clear. Let me be clear. It is never, never acceptable to target civilians, and Ukraine's resilience will help it prevent. Over Putin's aggression and atrocities. Separately, Ukraine's president has fired the country's Air Force Commander after an F 16 war plane supplied by Ukraine's
Western allies crashed earlier this week. U S experts have joined the investigation into why the jet went down during a Russian missile and drone barrage on Monday. Well,

they didn't use the US made moniker, which is no the scios. They,

I think they. Well, where'd you get that other clip?

Well, I think the first one must have been a US one. I don't have it marked, sadly. The second one was France, 24 I believe the first one, I'm unsure where it came from.

There's some reason they were saying that they're not us here, because I think we're not that dumb. Well,

I would like to point out that we are a US made podcast. We are and I have a possible exit strategy that's been staring us in the face for a long time.

Yes, I have to point out to you that Mimi's objecting to this concept.

Do you even know what my concept is? It doesn't matter. Oh,

she says that every time you mention exit strategy, it gives her a The Chill, chill, uh huh. And she's she says is a triggering. It's triggering, and she says it's hurting donations.

Well, what if I told her that we could with with our Dutch masters, we could bring in maybe five, $600 million as an exit strategy? Would that give her a different billionaire

hurt donations we've had bet that'll hurt donations more? They got that much money? Well, they don't need mine,

really now. So you're saying that our joke about exit strategy, which will never achieve and have been talking about for almost 17 years. I think show number 10 we were talking about, how do we get out of this gig that's been hurting donations.

She says, Yes, let me be clear. But what is this? I want to hear this. Oh, you're interested. You're interested. Well, I'm interested. I'm just telling you, we're good. Donations are going to be down because of it.

Well, that you're possibly right. But what do we have with our artists? We have a number of our artists who are what talented talent, but I'm talking about they have talent. Yes, they're talented. And

there is, there's a number of artists. Now this is different, by the way, yeah, we got have become Yes, yes, of the highest order, yes,

exactly. So I've identified a trend that, well, I've identified it because CNBC gave me a clip about it. The the trend is, you want to play the clip, now play the clip, and then you tell me that we can't incorporate with some of our expert prompt jockeys. And I think every single one of our artists could do this, I

think we get at least 10, well, professional prompt jockeys that are languishing so in the in the world. So what is the languishing? What is because they're not being exploited as they should be? And most artists, by the way, want to be exploited, because they like to get their stuff out

of there. That's right. So what is the big problem with artificial intelligence, with all these AI startup companies, I don't know what. They're not making any money there. Never will exactly, they're not making any money. And this is what's happening
character. AI was one of the most promising startups in the age of generative. Ai, personalized AI, highly engaging, loyal user base, $150 million in funding at a billion dollar valuation. Character.ai launched its software last September, and has had more than 173 million visits last month, a 61% increase from March and a founder who pioneered generative AI, there was just one problem,
the startup couldn't make money. And according to reports, it struggled to generate enough revenue from paid users. Character AI, billion dollar valuation, pre revenue, very much feels like the 2010 app store, where you gain a lot of users and kind of figure out the monetization later. So it turned to a well established money printing mega cap Google, which was happy to cut a deal, especially since it was arguably
more interested in the talent than the technology. Character, AI, co founder Noam shazier was an author of a groundbreaking paper that laid the foundation for today's age of AI. It would bring shazier back to Google, along with a fifth of his employees in licensed characters technology without having to
outright buy the startup in an acquisition. It's a playbook that skirts the regulatory crackdown on big tech dominance provides an exit for AI startups struggling to make money, and allows mega caps to pick up the talent needed in the AI arms race. There's a. Very small number of researchers, AI practitioners that operate at the frontier of the technology. There's probably only 1000s right now. And the hyperscalers, the mega caps, want that talent, and they're looking to get it any way they can.

How about it? We just value ourselves at a billion dollars, and they, they buy us because we can't make any of

that though they just stole the talent. Well, yeah, but, but this is what Hold on a second. This is the worst aspect of Silicon Valley. This is why everyone keeps everything a secret. You have a bunch of talented guys running this company, and they have investors of 160 or whatever that number was, million dollars, of people who put angels and Sequoia, who
knows who was involved. And then, instead of them getting their payback, which they expect, they have their whole team ripped out from under them and taken to Google because they who was too cheap to buy out the company, which was valued at a billion dollars, which is like falling off a log for Google. They could, they could afford a billion dollars in in a drop of a hat. This is bull crap. I'm very upset by this.

Well, you know, it's because of regulatory oversight that they're doing that.

Oh, this is better, yes, screwing the investors to that extreme.

The investors get the licensing fee, don't you see it not

getting anything, is what they're getting.

It's the end of AI John, that's what it is. They're just bringing in more people to say we've got the best people.

Well, Google's is notorious for doing a crappy job of anything other than search Yes and also selling data. Yes, everything else is a joke. Yes,

I'm so there's that. I didn't mean to upset you.

I'm just, I'm upset on behalf of the investors.

What do you want? An LP at Kleiner Perkins,

I wish. But no, I don't wish. I'd be broke.

All right, one quick trip to Germany. The far right is a big problem. If you think that it's just America that has Maga, they've got Maga
as the sun sets over Dresden, anger among the far right rises far rise before voters take to the

polls. Boy, they sound really angry. Did you hear that clapping? That was very angry clapping upcoming regional
elections. These people believe they represent the majority view in the east of Germany, arguing multiculturalism is threatening their way of life. We want change to Germany, because here in Germany, so much refugees, and from this, from the refugees, is coming so much crimes, murdered and soling the AfD has tapped into high anti immigration sentiment, a view that is likely to translate into votes. These posters are
plastered on almost every lamppost. They read, sun, Summer, remigration, another homeland, not multiculturalism. This local AFD candidate blames a lack of border control for last week's fatal knife attack. You know what has happened in Seoul England that, of course, makes people angry. There are rapes that doesn't every day, the AfD are expected to win big, a potent signal just over a year before the next national election, party leaders say they must take back control.
Join us in making sure that the whole of Germany brings a sigh relief on September 1, thank you for your support for our homeland, for Germany, for Saxony.

So there you go. They

said homeland, as opposed to fatherland hinterland,

and this is exactly what happened in France. The far right came out in droves. Everyone's voting, and then the the left went, Oh, well, we're all gonna we're all gonna just say no, and we're all gonna get together. And they've been without a, literally, without a government, without a prime president or prime minister, ever, yeah, ever since the election six weeks ago and and it's still no sign of breakthrough. More than six weeks after snap legislative
elections, France still has no proper government. Macron began a new round of political negotiations on Wednesday aimed at finding a viable Prime Minister amid a hung parliament, in a break with tradition, Macron is refusing to appoint a prime minister from the winningest party in July's vote, the left wing, new Popular Front Alliance came in first place, but without an actual majority, the President is instead trying to cobble together a new coalition with conservatives,
but striking out there as. Well, he's sent to head to Serbia for a two day visit on Thursday, but he's squeezing in some meetings before he leaves, so they're just not doing governments anymore.

You know, the administrative state runs these countries, including ours, ours. You don't need a government. It's just a facade.
But well, there you go. Prove

me wrong. No,

I can't prove you wrong. You have a lot of clips left over, so if you have anything you'd like to share with the group,

well, let's get this, some of these old clips out of the way. What's this podcast clip? Oh, yes, this is the podcast. This is all of a sudden, we've got all kinds of issues because serial the podcast actually did some damage. Don't know if it's good or bad, but play the clip. Maryland's
Supreme court has ordered a redo of the hearing that freed Adnan Syed over concerns about the rights of the victim's family. It's the latest twist and illegal drama that was the focus of the Serial podcast, which propelled the case to national attention. Syed was convicted more than two decades ago for killing his high school ex girlfriend. He was freed in 2022 only to have his conviction reinstated a year later, one of the dissenting judges in today's ruling did not mince words,
writing that the case is, quote, a procedural zombie. It has been reanimated despite its expiration. Syed will remain free as a lower court considers whether to throw out his conviction.

Man, they missed the best part. So the Serial podcast, which launched in 2014 and became a sensation around 2016 Yes, reinvigorated podcasting. There's no doubt about it, people would just love that it came at the moment. Everybody was binge watching Breaking Bad five seasons in a weekend and showing up to work on Monday with dark circles under their eyes and and did you know that season four of serial launched, came and went just in the past, I haven't followed it
at all. Nobody. In fact, the producer, Sarah Koenig, she says, you know, it was complete dud. No made no money, no one cared. No one listened. I mean, no, obviously somebody listened. And so now here you have a a great tee up for wherever this report came from to say, serial Season Four is PBS. Serial Season Four is currently available wherever you get your podcasts, but they didn't even get that. So I think it's very sad that cereal didn't get, didn't get a plug of that
nature. And be okay, well, this is the old cereal, but the new cereal, no, nothing. Crickets fail.

I don't know what to make of it. Yeah. Well, maybe it's hard to do that kind of podcast and continually do it. It reminds me of the thing was an HBO show called the detective or something. It was with for they had a season of it. It was all specials, like a, like a mini series. Are

you talking about true true detective. True Detective? Yeah. My butt, my buddy, wrote and produced and directed that the first season, all three seasons. Well, the first season was a killer with Woody Harrelson, yeah, yeah. And then it dropped off. And now, now what That's Nick pizzlato, he lived, he he moved. Uh, yeah. Well,

I admire the fact that you know the guy. But what happened, he cleaned up was missing from the second and third season.

What happened is he cleaned up on season three. Like, massive, massive payout. Yeah, it's good for him. Yeah, that's yeah, of course. But that isn't that with everything. I mean, have you seen, have you gone to see the Wolverine and Deadpool yet? I mean, what did they do? $11 million in the opening weekend. People are sick of these things. They're sick of the repeats. They're sick of the sequels.

They want what happened to serial Yeah, they

want original programming twice a week,

couple hours worth on Thursday and Sunday. It's called the no

agenda show. Everybody I'm gonna show my
salute by donating to no agenda. Imagine all the people who could do that. Oh, yeah, that'd be fabulous.

Yeah, that's right. This is where we thank people who came in $50 and above or above. And of course, we once again want to thank everybody who was a sustaining donor. We will be bringing a night and a dame on stage today here at the round table, who have just been supporting on sustaining donations on a layaway plan for as long as they wanted to do it. And there's some birthday things. And do you want me to read the book? I'm gonna

I'm gonna throw it to you. Toss it to me. When we get to the 6388 and down to the 60s, all for you. Yes, I'm

very excited. I love people saying happy birthday. I can't get enough of it.

Read it. I got a chuckle. Yeah, don't pee yourself when you're doing this. Read, sorry, I already Harrington is sparks. Nevada starts to solve it 160 bucks. She does say, Happy Birthday Adam.

Yes, here we go. He
is awful at Podcasting

A little too long. I actually have five. Here's the next one. They don't know what they're talking about. I kind of like that one.
I like that one. I

like that one.
The whole thing is crazy.

I'd like that one too. That's
it. And same old, tired playbook.

I think there's at least one in there,

like the Pelosi one.

Yeah, what you got? Okay, well,

I've got a bunch. I've got four, so I'm almost many. Yeah, let's start with embarrassed. Embarrassed.
We are not embarrassed by any

of it. Ah, little echoey.

It's too echo Yes, though, yeah,

it won't punch through.

Let's try the classic. Thanks. Okay,

thank you. Yeah Pelosi, pleasure.

All right, always
a pleasure.

Again. The last on the list is awesome. Pretty awesome.

I don't think anything tops Pelosi. Let's hear it again.
They don't know what they're talking about. I

mean, it slams us. It's Pelosi. It's all the good stuff. You got to admit.

Are we good? Yeah, okay, Pelosi is always All

right, ladies and gentlemen. Once again, it is time for the one and only tip of the day that comes at the end of every single no agenda podcast, you will not want to miss
it. And sometimes

this is a good one. This is an offbeat This is a. Product that people don't even know exists. They're

all good. By the way. It's not just this one that's good. They're all good.

This is padding adhesive.

Padding adhesive. Okay,

yeah, if you've ever had like, a bunch of, like, a bunch of sheets or something you wanted to make into a notepad that you can tear off page after page. Yeah, this is what printers use when they make you. You go over there and say, I like to get a bunch of notepads. And they make you a bunch of notepads with your logo at the top, or whatever size you want. And then they're all, they're all glued together with this. What they use is the same stuff you can buy called padding
adhesive. And you can get a small jar of it, or you can get a big gallon of it. It depends. I mean, if you're you don't want a big pile of it, because you're not going to use it that often, but when you use it, it's pretty cool. I just did this recently with a bunch of deposits slips from the bank that would be scattered around a drawer normally, but I made him into a
notepad. I just used the padding it. He's if you could use it with you can paint it on the edge, or you can make a little dipping device and dip it in there and make it and then let it dry overnight. And you have a notepad you tear off one after the other. It's dynamite product that nobody knows about. And

how would I use that in my life? Specifically,

do you ever have, like, a bunch of, a bunch of you ever have a notepad? Or do you have a desire to have something you could print yourself, or something you it's you'll find you'd find a use for it. Hmm,

is it better than paperclips or staples?

Yeah, it's cooler. Makes a cool little product. You get a little it tears off. It looks like it looks professional. Okay,

what is the name of this product? Again,

you'd look it up. There's a number of different brands out there, and it's called this one I have is CFS, binding supplies, padding, adhesive notepad adhesive. You can use that notepad adhesive, and you don't think much of it at the time, but you'll find if you had some, and it's rather really expensive, you'd find a use for it. I

would recommend you pick up one of these products and take it to the office. People will be amazed by your ingenuity. You could even get a raise. You

could get a raise. That's right, here's, here's, here's, here's something you can use it for. If you want to have some fun. You get, you go to the bank, and you get a pile of fresh dollar bills, yes, dollar bills. And you stack them up, you make sure that even and you put the padding adhesive on
the end, and then put in your wallet. And then, when you go to the store, and you once, and they ask for money, you tear off piece after piece of the dollars from this, from this notepad, which is now a bunch of dollars, 10s, 20s, you can do with any bill. Oh, they have to be obviously brand new. So yeah, make this work, yeah. Oh, and that would get some attention. Yes,

take it to the script, to the strip club with your dollar bills, with your little bound
book of dollar bills. It's beautiful.

That's right, it's a tip about tips. It doesn't get much better than that. Everybody tip about tips. And that is the conclusion of our broadcast for today, live on the no agenda stream, trollroom.io, and coming up into show mixes, we have David keckka, who always comes with a new mix. And Sir Saturday

Vice President Harris, you were a very staunch defender of President Biden's capacity to serve. Another four years right after the debate, you insisted that President Biden is extraordinarily strong given where we are now. Do you have any regrets about what you told the American people? No, not at all. Not at all.
I have served with President Biden for almost four years now, and I'll tell you, it's one of the greatest honors of my career.

Then Tim Cook said, You better run and hide. But my friend Joe Rogan came and joined my side. He said, If it wasn't for the podfather, the people wouldn't
