1703 - "New Screw"

No, no, no, Mom, no, no, no, no, you don't no, no, no.

Adam curry. John C Dvorak, Sunday,

October 13, 2024, in this your award winning kimono nation. Media assassination. Episode 1703,

this is no agenda, with

boots on the ground everywhere and broadcasting live from the heart of the Texas home country, here in FEMA Region, number six in the morning. Everybody. I'm Adam curry

from Northern Silicon Valley, where we're awaiting the Argentinian gangs. I'm John C,

D, the Venezuelan Argentinians.

Oh, I said Argentinian

Aragua.

Yeah, yeah.

Well, we might as well just submit to it. There's nothing we can do. It's the fifth time we've been through it. The news is all that's, all that it is, is all everybody's going crazy. Everybody's going crazy because it's a very tight race. It's so close, so close. I

have the race run down here. As you said, you brought it up. I think I can intro with this.

Oh, hold on a sec.

This is the, I think is Trump Harris

campaign rap.

The campaign rep from NPR sounds right. Former

President Trump is on the campaign trail along the west coast today. He started with the Hispanic roundtable on Las Vegas. We have far more people, far more support than the other side. And the really the term Make America Great Again, we are the party of wanting to make America great again right now we have a country that's a nation in decline, and he holds a rally in Southern California's Coachella Valley at this hour. Meanwhile, Vice President Harris is campaigning

She's very breathy in that report. So in the in the information from the Brits, in the infamous words of notebook. LM, let's take a deep dive into this. Let's unpack this. Let's see what's going on. Because the big news that was is flooding the socials was Obama talking down to the black men.

The Harris campaign is clearly worried about her standing with young black men, and they're sending Barack Obama out these final of three plus weeks to try to reach them. Here he is in Pittsburgh.

You're coming up with all kinds of reasons and excuses. I'm speaking to men directly. Part of it makes me think that, well, you just aren't feeling the idea of having a woman as president

Lulu Harris is leading among black men and Latino men, but not near

just this is an affectation that I'm noticing, and it may just be age, but Obama has the same thing that Howard Stern has the voice no longer has the power. Do you know what I mean is

Mike poorly listen and echoey room, which I, you know, I had that clip, but it's so echoey. It was, your version was a little better when I had,

well, this is, this was, I mean, there's, there's more to it, because this is the Chris Wallace show on

CIA, probably with their best, they probably couldn't use much of it either. It was terrible. No, it

was. It was very bad. Lulu

Harris is leading among black men and Latino men, but not nearly by the same margins that Biden enjoyed in 2020 so in other words, Dad

Obama, right there. It's him sort of adopting that tone of scolding and saying, Hey, man, why aren't you? Actually backing women. I don't know that that was the best tactic. I'll be honest with you, it's not. It's not, it's not really persuading people. At the end of the day, she has a problem with men. There is a huge gender gap, though, in this election, this is as it's had, as it's been dubbed the gender election. And I think if I

have you heard this being dubbed the gender election? I've

never heard that until this clip. Is fake news. Lulu is a

huge gender gap, though, in this election, this is as it's had, as it's been dubbed the gender election. And I think if I were Kamala Harris, I'd rather have women than men. The kinds of men that Trump has, irregular voters, they're low propensity voters.

Hold on, hold on. Irregular voters and low propensity. What is? What does that mean? Low propensity,

that means they don't get out and vote. Oh, okay, but

so the oh, well, that's kind of interesting. Then it sounded like a slur, but now that you explained that it just Okay, sounds like it's probably true. Donald

Trump has are irregular voters. They're low propensity voters. The kinds of people that Kamala Harris has are enthusiastic voters, black women, suburban women, these are the older women. These are the people that turn out and so in this kind of divided election among gender lines, I think you'd rather have one than the other.

I think I found one of those irregular, low propensity voters, because they were all over my timelines. This guy, I think, is from Chicago.

What you thought you was doing, Barack Obama, boy, you didn't step out there. All you did was piss black men off, bro. All you did was piss black men off. Why y'all think the American people? Why y'all think the Democrat Party owned black folk? The Democrat Party don't own black folks, bro. What you thought you was doing with that, we see the play. We know we see the play. Kamala Harris is losing. She's not going to win. So you done stepped on out. Yeah. You know black people if

this man was one of my favorite, low propensity voters.

Yeah, there's a lot of clips like that floating around, yeah,

but I like that one the most. That guy's a good one. That guy's good. And then, of course, NPR had to, the only thing they could do is just, is just lay it out what Trump is talking about.

Trump campaigned in Reno, Nevada last night, one of the swing states that may decide the election next month. He claimed he's attracting the support of black men. My numbers with the black and especially black men. I love black men. I love them. I have gone through the roof with black men, black men, black men. I don't do quite as well with black women. I must say, Trump is to appear this afternoon near Las Vegas.

No humor, no humor on NPR. Trump is later. I

don't do quite as well with black women. I must say Trump is to appear this afternoon near Las Vegas, and an event billed as an Hispanic round table. Oh, no, he's

going off to the brown man now. Oh,

so I have Yes, yeah, well, I

was going to say that the big thing now is because Elon Musk said it will happen. Is Trump? Will he go on Rogan? Will Trump go on Rogan? This will decide the election. If Trump will go on Rogan, Trump on Rogan. This is whatever people are emailing me. Oh, man. Oh no,

he's got to know what to tell you, to tell Joe, to tell whatever. Yes,

I need to talk to Joe to make sure that Joe doesn't, doesn't go, you know, doesn't try to pull him apart, doesn't try to strongman him like he did with the moon landing guy. Oh no, that would be horrible. Trump could lose please. I'm like, and just before you, because I know you have a clip lined up. What's her face? Kara Swisher, who's also on that Chris Wallace show. Well, no, she has some good advice for Kamala. Well, I

think she's got to keep doing it. I think not enough and repetitions. Everyone does know Donald Trump, and he fills up every space that he can, whether it's with toxic stuff. Of talks, louder, meandering. It doesn't really matter. He just fills up all the space. And so she has to do more and more. I think that she's going on Charlemagne, the god is critically important. That was a great that's a great booking for her. And he's, you know, he has a base on real fans. I think she should go on

you tone deaf?

She's

boy. You do not want your advisory committee.

Oh, you do not want Kamala going on, on, Rogan.

I There's so I have a I have two Trump clips from Coachella, yes, yeah, this, he must have pulled in 100,000 people, you know,

I had we had dinner. Two friends were happened to be in Austin last night. I had pizza with him, and they were recently in Los Angeles, they were on pch, and he was telling me that there's Trump trains going all up and down the Pacific Coast Highway. Says it's there's a lot, he says, even more than Texas, people are waving flags, and they've got their houses completely all trumped out, which is interesting, because, you know, when it comes to the Electoral

it's impossible, but this is so the same in Washington. Mimi. Mimi told me a similar story. She says, up there she went to a meeting and a local nearby town for some, some event, some, some book writer, and it was filled with a bunch of these Trump supporters, and they have taken it upon themselves to do what they do like in Florida, where they have all their pickup trucks and they load them up with Trump signs and flags, yeah, Trump train, and they go all over the place.

then what they do is, then, when they come up to their trucks and they're all angry, then they roll the coal on them with the big 250 diesel, the big black cloud, of course, smoke comes out, but, but what just, but what is the strategy here, other than just trying to rattle Kamala or because it seems pretty impossible for, you know, to get the Electoral College votes you need, no matter how many people in California would be, would be voting for Trump? It just seems like an honest

winner take all states. So that's,

oh, wow. So he's going all out. Then he's,

he thinks he can at least get enough popular vote to make it interesting. Well,

California was red during Reagan. I mean, it was,

we had other Republicans running the place, and so it's not like totally impossible, but the but, you know, the system underneath the underlying system, the educational system, the universities and all the rest have been propagandizing so well that

they can maybe, maybe we're at a tipping point. Yeah, sure, tipping point. Hey, um, you know what? I'm just gonna call it tipping point this election, California flips red.

So I have two Trump clips from Coachella, and I have to apologize in advance. And believe me, I tried,

oh, you tried to make it sound good, or

there's a, there is a ground loop in here, and I'm apologizing profusely, because this is the kind of thing that you specifically it drives you nuts.

Now, is this something that was in the Trump audio, or it was in the Trump audio? Oh god. I

tried getting it out using Adobe. They couldn't do it. I tried getting it out using filters. Wouldn't work. Just screwed it up more.

Okay. So what you are just saying is, Adam, don't go all crazy about it. So

Adam, don't go all crazy about this Gotcha. But I just, I have these two clips, and we don't want to play them both. We had to definitely play the first one, which is the fat pig one. And I'll preface it by saying these are, like, I think, new bits that Trump has incorporated. Okay, well, he needed new material, yeah. Well, this is just he, you know, he's been so reluctant to be insulting ever since they took a shot at him that he's gone about it now in a kind of a roundabout

it's it. I think it's very logical, because, first of all, America used to be funny. We lost, we lost our funny decades ago, during Obama, we basically lost our funny and and it just kind of reminds people that we're Americans and that we that we know that America F Yeah. You know, like Team America. I it's, it's something, I think it's something very deeply ingrained in the American psyche.

Well, not in everybody, because there's a lot of people finding this offensive. I think it's hilarious personally, well, but this is he's part of the species, talking away, yak, yak, yak. And somebody makes yells, Willie Brown in the background, some insult. Okay? And so then Trump goes off on that, and then he goes into the tangent. And I think, except for the buzzing, I think that this is his new way of doing insults, which is Biden doing the opposite, saying, I'm

Your children are in danger. They can't go to school with these people. These people are from a different planet. Kamala is turning us into a third world nation. That's what happened in San Francisco when she was the DA of San Francisco, the things she did, she started that whole decline with our victory. He says Willie Brown, who said that? Who's Who's the guy? What? Stand up. This can only happen in California. Yes, I didn't say it. Remember that? He said it, he said it, he said

You know, you should lose your nickname, buzzkill, because you couldn't kill the buzz. I

couldn't kill that buzz. No. But so he goes on about this fat pig thing. And I just thought it was just genius. He's

also doing a lot of self deprecating humor about, you know, oh, if I was in a bathing suit with this beautiful body,

there's Oh, yeah, no. He has a lot of bed about fire sleeping on the beach. Yeah, yeah, exactly. And he talks about the bathing suit, and how does he, you know, with the paparazzi and all the rest, he goes on and on. He the other one, which we don't have to play because the buzzing is even bothers me. He goes off on shift, you know, he said, I'll just summarize it. He goes, he says, you know, you can't say, you can't really say bad things about people's appearance, and

oh, man. Well, by the way, I noticed that Dennis Quaid was at the Coachella appearance with Randy. Oh, I missed that, but wasn't it? I thought, though the brothers had a huge break during Obama, or no, no, when Trump was running against Hillary, if I recall, is like, you know, didn't Dennis Quaid completely shun his brother?

It's possible. But right now, ever since Dennis Quaid played Reagan, right, right, right, the him and but him and Randy were both there, yeah? Along with a lot of other celebrities from Hollywood and elsewhere, it was a pretty interesting event, except for the buzzing, yeah,

Dennis Quaid, I saw him interviewed on, what was he interviewed on? It was Tucker. He was radically saved in AA, I think, yeah, he's a Christian. So he's a real problem. Now, he'll never work again.

He'll never work again.

Never Work Again. So, speaking of that, so Bill Maher, I guess, you know, besides the black men, oh, now we're worried about the Christians. You know, I mean, excuse me, Christian nationalists. Bill Maher hired that guy on Tim, Alberta. He's the guy that, I guess he his dad was a pastor, and then he left the church and has been writing the books about how dangerous they all are. And it's all, ooh,

think Bill. No,

you gotta go. Oh, look, I think Bill. Look, I think I'm gonna try that on you. Look, I think John, let me just tell you, Look, we see and look

that. Look, I think, Bill, there is a persecution complex at work here that may seem silly and overblown to a lot of people from the outside looking in, right, but for folks inside the church, who believe that the country is slipping away from them, that they no longer recognize the Christian America of their youth, and they believe that Donald Trump is an imperfect vessel for God's perfect will. And they look at him and say, well, the barbarians are at the gates.

hold on a second. Why was he behaving badly? Because he's calling chris Christie a fat pig. Yes, that's

very, very unholy. I don't know he's just he's behaving badly.

I keep you hear stuff like this. There was, I have a couple of clips coming up, and it's the same thing where they just throw this stuff out there, and it's just like, what do you what are you referring to? What specifically is he doing? It's

just one now. It's just one of those generally accepted things. Well, Trump is just, you know, you know, the whole rundown race. I

had a friend, a friend of mine, call me. They're talking about how I don't know how they can support Trump, because he's lying all the time. I said, What are you talking about? Well, he said that Jamie Dimon supporting him, and Jamie Dimon came out and said he wasn't supporting him. So that's somehow and even though that could not be, interestingly enough, Jamie Dimon could be supporting him. You know, he could have said something to Trump, and Trump assumed he was a supporting Well,

Trump is, you know, there's rumors that he wants him to be the Fed chair or Secretary of the Treasury.

So it's possible that, you know, it's just, you know, one these are, aren't the kind of lies that are important if it's even a lie. This is like the 30,000 lies that they were documented with during Trump being in office, and half of them were, Trump said 15 when the number was 16. Oh, he's a liar. He said 15 when it's 16. You know, he's just this kind of these, and they just accept it as a norm, and to say that he's behaving badly. What specifically, I have a couple

well, so what, what got my attention on this is some persecution complex. And therefore the Christians are like, well, we can just bring the devil in. That's no we can just bring in Satan to beat down Satan, or some it's the logic escapes me of what he's saying, because

they look at him and say, Well, no good Christian man is capable of protecting us in the way that he is right. And so, in a way, it almost liberates him to behave badly and to say whatever he wants. And sort of just creates this, this ongoing relationship where whatever he says and does, his support remains that he's

okay. So then, so then this guy's thumbing through his Bible. Was like, Oh, I got one. I know. I know. I know who he is. He's the badass gunfighter who becomes they give him the badge, yeah, to be the sheriff, even they know who he is, or he's Cyrus. I've heard that Cyrus. You explain that one to us who is Cyrus in the Bible? Yeah,

Cyrus is the Old Testament Persian king who allows the Jews to go back and rebuild the temple, right? And the idea being that he's not one of them, but he protects them, and that Trump in his own way, although certainly you do have a subset of these folks who believe that Trump actually is a Christian, that he had a born again experience in the White House, that Mike Pence led him to Jesus in the White House.

This is This is very strange, because if you look at the core issues in America that that this guy's and Bill Maher is just skirting, it's abortion, it's transgenderism, and it's borders, that's really the only thing that people care about. But this guy summoned the economy. Well, yes, in the but, you know, Christians, they all got money. They don't load it. It's not a problem. Oh, yeah. And by the way, this is only white Christians. Black Christians don't count.

I think it's important to distinguish real persecution from manufactured persecution. So

he's back to the persecution thing. And this is what i This is the best part of this you're talking about. Well, that he, he believes that Christians, uh, evangelicals, whatever, advertising that they feel persecuted, and that that is why they want Trump, because Trump will set them free somehow. That's his whole, his whole thing. We got Cyrus from Persia, and he protected the Jews. Like, what are you talking about,

right? So you have Christians all around the world, in China, in India, in Sub Saharan Africa, yeah, they're really persecuted. Who could never conceive of having political power, of cultural influence of any sort of privileged status conferred upon them because of their faith affiliation, and in some way that helps the Christian movement in these areas to thrive and to be sort of organically authentic

around going rousted.

They're gone idiots.

The American church. It's obviously a very different story, in part, because privilege and status and power is all we've ever known. And so now, when you see the demographics beginning to shift slowly, but they are shifting.

is completely bizarre, what this guy is saying. And Bill Maher's like, oh yeah, oh yeah. So that, so this,

I don't even understand what he meant by that last comment.

Well, all that, I think he's trying to say is that we're in post Christian America, which, I mean, we're certainly not in post faith America. If you take all the different faiths in America, it's probably 75 80% believes in something, including Islam. But this guy, and he thinks that the that the American church feels persecuted, whereas I think he's got it wrong. What happened is the American church woke up during not all, but a portion of it woke up during covid and

know, everyone has a different definition for Christian nationalism, and that's part of the problem, because we don't know exactly how to define it. Just call them. KKK, it's easier to me. Christian nationalism is really just the marriage of bad history and bad theology. Here we go,

this? Wow, dude. Have you read the Declaration of Independence? Have you read the Constitution? Have you? Have you even looked at the people who signed it? They're being

they're looking forward to the theocratic takeover.

This is like, what's true? What

trend line has he talking about? I haven't seen zero evidence of this. No. And you're, if any would be a Christian nationalist or described as such, it would be you, not me. Yes, completely, and I don't see any evidence that you're a Christian nationalist. I

am, though I met, of course, I am, of course, of course. What I don't know what he's defining as a Christian nationalist. But yes, it's the establishment clause that all comes down to this. They are. Afraid for some reason that the and this, this goes back to that crazy guy about the I

preface before you say what they're afraid of. Let's start with the premise that we're dealing with out and out atheists. Yes, Bill Moore in particular, and then this guy is an obvious atheist, and they're promoting atheism, which is, you know, you can promote whatever you want. That's the point of free speech, yes, and it and but let's not give let's not make it more out of it than atheism, which is what we're dealing with here. And it's fine. You want to be an atheist. It's your business,

right? But what he's trying to say is the danger here of the Christian nationalists? Is they? They believe that the government should, you know, should only be run by Christians, and that everyone needs to pray every morning, and then, just like Insanity, it's insanity where and taking the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment, and saying, Oh yeah, you know the they wanted to make sure that we can get in and they can run the run the whole thing like a church, but

and that they were fine with an eventual theocratic takeover of our governing institutions once you get to that place, oh, then where you accept that piece of history as being true, then suddenly the way that you read Scripture is very different, and it becomes very easy for you to distort basic theology. The ways in which Jesus commands us to look forward to a kingdom that is not of this world. You begin to think that actually that kingdom is in this world, that it is here. It is not what.

How did it go from A to B? I

don't know. It was completely bizarre and fear mongering over nothing other than Christians. They might, might, might, maybe, might, we might get 10% more to vote this, this election, maybe is

all it's about. Of course, this is just about scaring the dumb dummies out there, of course, into believing this. And that's going on, and Trump's somehow gonna be part of it, and he has to be stopped, yeah, so we can put in an atheist like Kamala Harris, yes, who's a dummy,

whereas I can tell you, the only thing the Christian nationalists are really talking about is a spiritual war between this guy evil and good. That's it. That's it. Hey, I just thought it was kind of interesting that this is this, this, if the fear is is sad in a way. Anyway, what you got?

What do I have? You had? You said, Yeah, throw it to me out of the blue. I mean,

I can, you said, I have a series of clips right after this. And so

that's, I had the Trump clips. I got the shift clip. I got, you know, okay, well,

then I have, I have some serious Trump clips, kind of serious. Well,

I Please play. I will respond to these clips, and then maybe I'll come up with something. Yes, he was

on Maria Bartiromo, you know, bromp, yeah, yeah, no, I missed that, not on her, but on her show.

Hey, oh, you need some news in your Detroit speech with news proposals, but I want to get your take on your economic policy, first, debt and deficits, because you've said you want to eliminate taxes on tips, eliminate taxes on Social Security, on overtime pay, ending the double taxation of Americans living abroad, a proposal to make car loans interest tax deductible. That

So, so far, I'm like, Yeah, let's do all that. Let's, I didn't know about the car loan.

Yes, that's new. Oh, he's just that that came. I think he maybe been introduced at Coachella. And he does make a point at Coachella, another thing he says, which is that I don't under and which is something I've been saying. I don't understand how you can run for president, the presidency and and promise tax increases and hope to get support. No which is what camel is doing. I'm gonna raise everybody's taxes. I'm gonna rich. I'm gonna, you know, gouge the rich

idea of making your car loan tax deductible is genius. It

was always deductible until 1986

oh, who changed that? Reagan? Why did he change that? We were out of money. I have

no idea was to during some period where that was seemed like a good idea at the time, and no one ever reversed it, hmm.

Well, I didn't know that. But now that you know, some people are paying nine and 10% you look, you look at the car commercials, the lease, the lease is amazing. This will only cost you four nine to nine a month. And then you look at. You freeze the frame, you look at the bottom with an $8,000 down payment. Okay, that seems like a good deal.

You have to, by the way. This is the reason you want to get a 4k TV. What you just said, oh, yeah, so you can see that stuff, so you can read the fine print. I, and I wanted, I don't want to go off the topic, but I just want to say the fine print. Have you seen those ads where they say, Oh, this is for, you know, you get a special phone. They give you a free phone, and it tells you what you're saying so you can hear Johnny the baseball player,

like this a Medicare scam.

If you read the fine print the whole thing, they route the call through India, and some guy listens in on the call and types in what he says. It says very clearly. It's not actually technology. It's just a no, there's no technology involved.

It's a $5 phone, or $3 phone, because it's just a phone with big, big buttons and then, well, it's

also got a screen that you can read from the screen. Oh, okay, wow. So there's no AI, huh? No, it's just some guy, some guy. Okay,

type this out. Does it say that some guy in India

will be might as well say some guy,

some guy, some guy in India is typing this out for you, Granny. But

how will you pay for it? The Committee for Responsible Budget says your plans will increase the debt by $7.5 trillion but they don't know that the Wall Street Journal said that your plans will increase the debt and deficits more than Kamala Harris's. If I do this, you're going to have car companies coming back

as a friend of mine, John, whenever I call you, I want you to say, Sir, okay, because I think that's very reasonable. It's very reasonable if I ask you a question as a friend, yes, sir.

Yes, sir. All right, so

how are you going to pay for it?

So I'm just trying to understand how you're going to pay for all of this, no tax on stuff. And you said that there's a lot of fat in government. I gave you an answer, growth. We're going to grow at a level that you've never seen before, and we're going to have tremendous jobs, and we're going to have companies coming in left and right, and they're going to build building factories, going to take over empty hulks that are all over the place from

John, have you heard about the new screw? No,

I have not heard about the new screw that he's developed. It

may be a loose screw, but there's a new screw, apparently. And it's amazing this screw, it's the most beautiful screw. It screws like no one else can screw. You think

he's telling me about a new screw. This was developed. He's developed a new screw. Screws are difficult, and it's made out of titanium, by the way.

Screws are difficult, just so you know, it's a new screw is an easy screw. Listen, Elon's an easy screw built

a new screw. Screws are difficult, and it's made out of titanium, and it's so exciting. But you know what so exciting? A great business guy, and he's a great cost cutter, you've seen that, and he said, I could cut costs without affecting anybody. So he will be in the cabinet, not in the cabinet. He doesn't want to be in the cab. He just wants to be in charge of cost cutting. Who have a new position, Secretary of cost cutting. Okay?

So he's not in the cabinet, but he's the secretary of cost cutting. Okay, this is, this needs to be fleshed out, okay, so just, I'm just going to take a little side, side step on Elon, and then we can get off the topic, because lot of people looking at his Starlink that he's been giving away to the hurricane victims, particularly North in West North Carolina, by the way, shout out to Bruce. Bruce is 72 he's been without power for 17 days. So I sure, I'm sure, hope he gets his power

he's giving me, he says, free till the end of the year. Oh, okay. Well,

every report I saw was, was a free month, yeah, no, it's free till the end of the year. All right, so, you know? Okay. And then I was thinking, you know? And I got this clip from Mike Benz because he said something really interesting on the Sean Ryan podcast. All of this stuff that Elon does is really, it's irrelevant compared to Starlink. Starlink is really the main business. And when I look at what he's, you know, this deal that he's giving to the people in North Carolina.

that be different than the single point of surveillance of that building, the at&t building in San Francisco, there on whatever Fourth Street? Yeah, I

think it's, I think it's a little different because for the NSA

operation in Utah, well,

yes, I think it is. I mean, this is a much more direct. You're directly connected. You can target, okay, I need to listen to that guy, boom, tap into that guy. It's, I think it's a little easier, actually, then. So first at&t, you know they were making a whole copy of the internet and the NSA. I mean, they, they, they have to record everything that you go back and try and find it. In this case, it's very targeted, like, Oh, I know where Dvorak is. Let's see what he's

is has just launched this new SpaceX competitor that just recently put its first constellation of its of its satellite mega project in play, and this Starlink competitor, Starlink market killer, is something that I would not be surprised if Brazil pursues as a Starlink substitute. Lula hitched his star to China, to China. Bolsonaro was very hostile to Chinese soft power and Chinese investment in Brazil. And Lula, who, again, was backed by the US State

which means, who is this guy going to? Mike Benz,

well, that's Mike bends. Okay, need China's they're gonna do favors for China, for China to do favors in kind.

So I didn't know that China had launched a new Starlink competitor. And when you have a country like Brazil which has geo political, geo strategic importance to us, yeah, we want to have Starlink be the be the pipe in. We can't have the Chinese doing that. I there's something up with this. Isn't a short

there's something up with it. But I'm not seeing it's gonna that technology on Starlink is so screwy.

Screwy. What do you mean? Screwy?

It's it's a screwy technology, if you'd ever Exam. And how those antennas work, because it's a moving target. It's constantly moving. You. There is no fixed satellite. It's not like a satellite, you know, any sort of geostationary satellite that sits there, and you just go back and forth at a even though you can't do the fixed satellite at low orbit like that, it's moving. It's a moving target.

like a perfect something that, well, all I know is that there was a huge fructose at the beginning or a couple months into the full scale invasion of Ukraine, and Elon Musk apparently didn't turn on, or it was turn we don't know

would not be surprised if part of what's happening right now with tack, with taking out Starlink, is an attempt to do either a favor, directly or indirectly, for their their new Chinese partners and or to supplant Starlink altogether with the this new Chinese competitor who is looking to get market reach and capturing, you know, the 10th largest economy in the world would be incredible as a beachhead, not just in

there's a lot of things at play here, and somehow there's

a lot of things at play. If any of this is true, correct?

I have no idea if the Chinese system is is real or not. I'm

well know that. But how much did the State Department back Lula, and how much did the State Department want China to go into Brazil. This doesn't make any sense. He's

done all. He's done a lot of deconstruction of that. I mean, it's he has done a lot on that. I mean, you know, Mike Benz was in the State Department. I think his problem is he does stuff like this where he said, Oh, it's like this, and, oh, but you can go look at my ex post, and you can watch for an hour and a half, you understand exactly what they

Can you see that? Yeah, well, that, yeah, we've only heard those promises since everyone's lifetime. Yeah, yeah, right. So anyway, I mean, this began with Hoover.

What did Hoover say? Same

thing, oh, we're gonna shrink government. It's been growing ever since, yeah,

yeah. Elon can come in and do it today. He's gonna stop the war in in Ukraine in a day. Yeah, vote for me. This is what. This is what, this is what I mean is everyone's going crazy, and then, you know, we'll see Joe Rogan. Joe Rogan's going to determine the winner of this election. Everyone knows it. That

seems unlikely. I think most people pretty much made up their minds of what they're going to do. I. Far as I can tell. Well, except

for the black men, the big, beautiful black men, they've now finally come out. If they actually go and vote, that'll make a difference. This is what Moe has been saying for as long as I've known him.

Yeah, yes, with one of his basic thesis, yeah. Let's listen to this little NPR report on voter fraud by government. The

Justice Department is suing the state of Virginia over a program to remove voters from its election polls in the lead up to this November's elections, if DMV records don't indicate US citizenship. Federal law prohibits purges from voter rolls within the 98 period leading up to an election the system put in place by executive order by Republican Governor Glenn youngkin has already faced lawsuits from immigration rights

a note from one of our producers. He says his his sister, think his sister and his mom live in California, and his sister what his sister and his mom live in California, and neither of them got their ballot in the mail. And he says, that's the first time it's ever happened. There's something this. I mean, obviously there's my reply to was, yes, everybody's cheating this time around. Hello, Oh, I did it. Hello, hello, you

did it. Yes, you did.

I can't help. I can't help. Everyone's

cheating. You used to be, it used to be so good at stopping yourself. I'm slipping and you've lost it.

I've lost my I can't do it. I keep saying the W word from time to time as well. It's, it's so prevalent, so prevalent everywhere. They overdid it. They had a dream about that. You had a dream about the W word? Yeah. What happened? Yeah.

We were having this competition. The two of us and I had, I had stopped saying it, and you couldn't stop saying it. It was a, was a strange dream. Somebody was, I remember, I was working on the ascent, but as an inspector for trail mobile. And some minute, wait a minute,

trail mobile, yeah,

trail mobile. This

is a new story. I don't know anything about. No, I think it's been brought up before is trailmobile.

Trailmobile used to make trailers and cargo containers for Matson. And you know that was I worked on the cargo container alarm for trains

or for trucks,

for ships. Oh, ships, okay, you know those containers that put on the back of a truck? And, yeah, yeah. This is the early days of it. This is when it first began, when containerized shipping first began. They had a whole line there making these things. And this guy says to me, he's, you know? He says, hey, you know, I started dreaming about the job. He says, I now I gotta quit. Said, why? He says, you when you start dreaming about a job, you gotta quit. There's some rule.

This is a bad omen. You have, you have four more years. Feel good about it. You have four more years. You can't quit now. There's no quitting in podcasting. I can't do that. There's

no quitting in baseball. There's no crying in baseball. I

can confidently say I don't think I've ever had a dream that you were in.

Well, good, yeah, yeah. But now that you get lost in one of your dreams, but

somehow you suck me into yours. Yeah? Well,

I was just, it was just to humiliate you. I think because you kept saying that word, the W word, okay, yes.

And your older men will have dreams. Speaking of containers, we're going to Chicago. One

by one, people made their way up the tracks to raid this freight train parked at an overpass off Cicero and Lake. In all my years living on the west side, I've never seen actual freight train parked over a buyout where people actually going into it yet. CBS sky watch captured just that Friday. Watch as folks grab boxes of TVs from the train cars and easily load them on top of vehicles waiting, people just kind of standing there, like in disbelief, and all like, Oh,

is a, an odd throwback to the days of Jesse James and the the great, wait

a minute. We didn't, wasn't there a similar story that we had on this show, like, about 40 years ago, California.

It was happening. It was during covid. No, I thought it was

in Chicago before covid. And I thought it was Chicago, I

thought it was California, but they were just looting,

you know, some park, Park vehicles, not vehicles, but trucks, trucks. Oh, truck, cargo containers. Yeah, vaguely, very strange story.

Well, when you see the video, it's even crazier. I mean, there must be 100 people, and the cops are just sitting there, like, whatever is, you know, this is train robbery. Can't have this. Just strange. Kamala's fault. Just blame it on Kamala. No Biden, that's what everybody seems to do. Blame it on Kamala. All right, I'm leaving a

I got a couple. I got some stuff I got, let's start. Let's start. I hate to do is going to pull Jesse waters out of the bin,

out of the bit. Okay, as long as you say he's coming out of the bin. I'm okay with this coming

out of the bin. There's a couple of good deconstruction. He did something on the show, and he talked about camel is appearance on 60 minutes. And he has, I thought they brought some factoids out here. This is the 60 minutes deconstruction that that was on on Jesse waters. And he is starts off by playing a clip of of her being grilled about something, and then her comment, and they did a follow up. His producers did a follow up that nobody else has done.

And if you think she was unprepared for the view, watch her on 60 minutes. The first bill we proposed to Congress was to fix our broken immigration system, knowing that if you want to actually fix it, we need Congress to act. It was not taken up. Arrivals quadrupled from the last year of President Trump. Was it a mistake to loosen the immigration policies as much as you did? It's a long standing problem, and solutions are at hand, and from day one, literally, we have been offering solutions.

Yeah, Waters is has been doing a lot of interesting things in the past couple of months, which is, you know, I kind of missed the humor he used to be. Yeah, that's true. Yeah, I agree. He's trying to be, you know, he's trying to do good work, yeah, stop. Well,

it's just, it's not him. Anyway. Let's, you know, the soul behind the just the producers and executive producers, the guys are really run the show, and he just happens to be the front man. Yeah. Now he did. I get two more clips from him. Oh, and this is when he had Kevin McCarthy on the show. And this really kind of Kevin McCarthy. Is two clips here, and one of them is he's kind of two faced. Kevin McCarthy has been on, stumping around, and I'm hurt by the fact

Go, oh, that's what I heard that. And then he even was talking about Matt Gates's underage hookers or whatever.

Yeah, yeah,

my podcast, it

was a great podcast. The guy's going on and on. In the end, he's just getting it out of him. McCarthy said, he said, he expresses the following. He says, what happened was Matt Gaetz was in trouble. Did some one of the committees was investigating him because of all these underage girls and gates comes up to him and says, Hey, Kevin, you're the

Whoa, whoa, that's slanderous, libelous,

but not if it's not necessarily this is true. You can say the truth. Yeah, so here he is on Jesse, what waters. And the first clip is him talking about camel never showing up to meetings when he was in Congress. He says they'd have a they'd have a meeting. Kamala show up when she felt like and I thought this was kind of revealing. But then this the second clip where he comes back again with his complaining. This was where we're going to play the first one though, yeah, play

was where remarkable you would see, respect what someone would hold the meeting up for. No Joe Biden never waited for he'd start the meeting, even with this, she wasn't so then she'd show up, and you'd wonder, does she know what's going on? And only now and then she would interject. But it was kind of like the person interjecting and you were 30 minutes late on that question. We already handled that section, so she was late to these meetings. She wasn't prepared.

This backs up your theory that she doesn't want to be president because she's lazy. Yes, she doesn't, she doesn't like it, yeah,

yeah, she just as soon not get the win. She's just benefit and then get out. So here he goes back into this that she can't keep her staff. And I'll listen carefully to what he says as a kind of a kind of a little aside that it's chicken shit, but it's part of this overall. I'm still irked about the fact that I got kicked out of the speakership. She's got all the

staff in the world that she needs, but no one will stay with 92% have left. Everybody knows whether you're Republican or Democrat. It happens on both sides. Nancy mace, on the Republican side, nobody will work for her. And there's a reason why nobody will work for for Kamala Harris, who's the Vice President of the United States.

Hmm, why will no

Nancy mace? He says, brings a ride out because she's one of the ones that had that got him ousted. He says, Nancy Mace is a good example. On the Republican side, nobody will work for her. That's odd. Wow. Well, maybe it's true. I don't know Nancy mace. You know you've seen her before. She seemed reasonable. I don't know, but there's definitely McCarthy is out for blood, but He does it so solid because he's got a smile on his face and he's just everything's matter of fact, yeah,

what's he doing? What is he doing? Is he still doing?

I think he's trying to get a job in the Trump administration

for Trump,

yeah. What's this? Uh, band C stuff. You know, my ham, my ham, Funny Bone got tickled when I saw this weather and band C. And like play band

C, weather and info. PBS include

Marjorie Taylor green, the Republican from Georgia, who claimed the federal government can control the weather. You know, Charlie werthel of the Atlantic has a great piece where

he's now stuff. Clip. Now, this is about

Helene Milton.

It's about the weather, about Nancy. This is PBS you played in the last show. I was going to send you a note about these clips and say, can you bring up some of those clips, at least the key clip that you played, because what you did, you we talked about this in the last show. Not this is all new, but we talked about in the last show, about

would you like to hear the the Johnson clip? Yeah, let's play

this is from Lyndon Johnson, back in the Dayton,

the foundation for the development of a weather satellite that will permit man to determine the world's cloud layer and ultimately to control the weather, and he who controls the weather will control the world.

The other clip I had was an overview of all the experiments the government has done. And that was from France 24 it's a minute and a half. If you want to hear it, you don't have to. That's fine.

We don't well, let you maybe you can decide or after we play these clips. So I want to play these clips, these two clips about the weather, and I forgot why I call them ban. See, I think there's some other I forgot that otherwise, I would have sent you this note, but they have gone nuts about this, and because, because of Marjorie Taylor Greene, just offhandedly saying, hey, yeah, this is going on which you proved in the last show. But oh no, no, this is total denial. Now. This is bold nuts.

Marjorie Taylor green, the Republican from Georgia who claimed the federal government can control the weather, Charlie worth of the Atlantic has a great piece where he says, This isn't just a misinformation crisis, it's something darker. It's cultural assault on institutions and individuals that operate in reality. How do you see this moment that we're living in? Well, one, let's just call it what it is. I'll call it what it is, not just misinformation. And hold

on a second, stop B and C is Brooks and Capehart.

That's funny. I look at your clip list and it says band C. It says capital B, A, D, and then capital C. And part

of my codes, well, your code is,

I'm like C band. I wonder what's going on with C band. This could be some cool like, ham clip. No,

no, it's Brooks. I got punished Brooks. And yes, we're reading into things Brooks and K hard. I have a bunch of their clips. I'll play these, and then it gets a couple more. They go off the deep end. And this is like, you know, oh, this is lies. But you know, like I said, you already showed us that this is all coming from, you know, the Democrats

that we're living in. Well, one, let's just call it what it is. I'll call it what it is, not just misinformation and disinformation. It's lies, lies that are putting people's lives at risk, that is tearing tearing apart communities, people who are in in danger, who are at the most stressful point in their lives, trying to outrun a hurricane and being told that your government is not where you pay taxes, your government is not coming to help you, Your government is giving money away

I'd like to hold on a second the governors of Georgia and Florida as DeSantis and the other guy, Kemp, I guess they they weren't pushing back on disinformation. They said they were just cooperating with Biden. Or when were they pushing back on disinformation? I give them credit for pushing back on disinformation. What's he talking about? I

don't know, but I need to add one other thing to the weather modification that they are capable of doing, and we've discussed this as far. Back as episode, I think, 200 even, maybe even earlier than that. And this was the testimony

Marjorie Taylor green isn't nuts. Well, she just does her research.

She's a little out there, little kooky boy. She

okay. She is nuts or not. But besides the point, you can't condemn her for this comment, because this week, have it backed up, and it's been backed up by our own government. I mean, are you kidding me? This K part guy is full of it and and he could condemns everybody and calls lies, lies, lies. Let's Play Part Two. Is

there any way back from this when we have this ecosystem that exists where people actually believe that the federal government can control the weather, something as nonsensical is that seriously? I mean an indictment of our time. I know each party has to police their own side, and Republicans have failed that that big time, since 2015 the larger question for me is the rise of Donald Trump shows it's an advantage to have no conscience.

Now, what? What do you say at the end? No,

it's an advantage to have no conscience. What I'm so Donald Trump is just a what he's suggesting is his sociopath. Boob, yes, no, that's no conscience. Is like a psychopath? Well, that's what he suggested, basically what he said. I'm

glad I brought that transcript back, because I had either long since forgotten that they were talking about pathogens that could target specific DNA. Hello, I did it again. I'm gonna keep doing it now. Hello. I don't know what

you can do about it. This is the news. This is your earmark. That's right.

It's not that Adam curry mark. Adam curry. The Hello Guy is I'm gonna have stickers, posters. Gonna have that mate. So while we're on the topic of Donald Trump being a horrible man with no conscience, Lawrence O'Donnell could not resist and brought back an old classic, where

is the humanity? Where is the humanity? Where is the humanity? Donald Trump seems to have none. He

has no humanity, not a shred of humanity.

To have none, not a shred of humanity. Donald Trump said today that he believes that immigrants to this country are genetically inferior human beings. Exactly what Adolf Hitler, well, he's

gonna, oh, Lawrence. Lawrence brought receipts. Man, he didn't say that. No, no, wait for it. It's coming. It's coming. But I just have to stop, and he's bringing back the Hitler meme, and he's peace. Trump did not say this. Trump said something else. And, oh, wait, did

he just say? He just said? He said, no liar, yeah. He

believes that immigrants to this country are genetically inferior human beings. That is exactly what Adolf Hitler, immigrants,

by all immigrants, immigrants everywhere, legal immigrants, illegal immigrants, newcomers, immigrants, just immigrants. Tony with the deli on the corner, he's an immigrant, genetically inferior. Thought and

said Donald Trump doesn't seem to remember that he is a descendant of immigrants to this country, including his mother, who was an immigrant. He misses

a big opportunity here to say that his father also comes from immigrants, and he's German, so maybe there's some Adolf blood in him. He missed that. Missed that. Laura, I'm surprised.

Yeah, you know what danger brought this, this call back up. Up. I'm surprised the drum thing hasn't showed up. Again coming. I'm

sure it's coming. Let's continue. Two

of the mothers of Donald Trump's children are immigrants. Donald Trump, yeah,

but they're hot. Okay, so hot immigrants is not the same. Look at the genes. Look at the genes. They look fine. Said today, quote, we've

got a lot of bad genes in our country right now.

There it is. That's what the whole deduction, the whole deconstruction, is from that quote, we've got a lot of bad genes. Hey, he could have meant Levi's.

That's what I was thinking about. Levi's for him,

what was the what was the bag we got? Hey, man, the inner city got some bag bad genes going on. What was the what was the famous one with the V on the back? Was it Vanderbilt? Vanderbilt? And also, wasn't there Sergio Valenti or something? Was there's

a bunch of these jeans guys, a lot of jeans.

And again, that is almost word for word, what Adolf Hitler was saying in the 1930s before he started World War Two, and before he started

to speak English. So how could it be word for word,

and before he started an organized extermination prodash?

That's it. Thank you. Jordan,

of the Jewish people, in which Adolf Hitler's ambition was to execute every living Jewish person he could find anywhere in Europe. Because, among other things, he believed the bad genes theory that Donald Trump believes and spews in his views madness and relentlessness.

Madness, poisonous madness, relentless or No,

madness and relentless stupidity at 78 years old, no, we don't know how much longer the world will have to endure Donald Trump's Hitlerian rant. Hitlerian, we should expect that for every year Donald Trump has left, he is going to get worse. It's

only gonna get worse. It's only downhill from here. Lawrence told you, so Wow,

God, this guy is disgusting. Oh, he's great. He's great. I'm gonna go back to Brooks and Cape I want to play. This is the Brooks and Cape one, and this has got a little gotcha in here, and I want this is again, we have our guy, the black ghost, yes, who's just drops a little bomb in here. Never explains it. I don't. And this is very common on this PBS. PBS News Hour has, deter has, has deteriorated to such an extremist embarrassment to journalism, former President

Barack Obama hits the campaign trail for Kamala Harris as the race for the White House enters its final weeks and Donald Trump unleashes a torrent of false statements and distortions about the federal response to hurricanes Milton Colleen. Let's turn now to the analysis of Brooks and Capehart. That's New York Times columnist David Brooks and Jonathan Capehart, associate editor for The Washington Post. This

is where in my house, this is where we switch the channel. Wait, this is we switch the channel. I'm just saying, Wait, where's

the torrent of falsehoods and falls? What is specifically, is he talking about? He never says.

It's a torrent. It's a tidal wave. It's a tsunami of lies. And

Jonathan Capehart, associate editor for The Washington Post, great to see you both. So the polls show a race that is as tight as ever, 25 days out from election day, and Democrats are doing what Democrats do best. They are worrying. They are fretting that Kamala Harris's early momentum might have stalled. I want to start with your assessments of the race. But David, you first, has there been a vibe shift?

Oh, a vibe shift? Oh, oh,

well, I'm still waiting for the torrent of lies. What were they?

I'm already past it. I'm past it already. You know, it's bad. Well,

you get passed up faster than I do. Bad

genes. Well, you're, you're a PBS guy from the from old school. You know, you used to love PBS. You probably depended on them and thought they were, hey, believe me, uncle Don and Aunt Meg, every night they would watch the PBS NewsHour. They did not watch NBC, ABC, CBS, the spooks of this world. They watch PBS NewsHour. That's a that's a little inside info into the world of spookidge. Yeah. Well, that

doesn't surprise me. They

used to all read Newsweek. I don't think they read Newsweek anymore. No Newsweek

is done. It's not one by Salesforce. Guy from

Christmas I get a Newsweek subscription from Don and Meg,

there's coded messages in there, obviously, yeah,

and it did not work, because I was more interested in boys life. I don't know why not what? What I was boys life, the magazine, boy's life. You never you know doing all about boy's life, isn't that a boy scout? Drill, yeah, I was way into Boy Scouts and camping. And were you in a boy scouts? I was a sea scout in Holland, actually. Oh, a

sea scout. Oh, they used to have that in the United States. I don't remember what happened to the sea scouts. Yeah,

you could, you did not lots of knots. I could learn how to sail and learn how to sail. I can sail. I can, I can do lots of knots. Yes,

knots. You can do a lot of knots, earning more and more today. What I can

do a slip knot in one second.

There's, that's special technique, great. Okay, so where were we on these three

clips? We're number two. Okay, go,

has there been a vibe shift? Yeah. I mean, her momentum has stalled. She was going going up, then she seemed to plateau. And I would say, if you look at the polling movement in the last week, Trump is doing slightly better, and I should emphasize slightly, and so he's doing a lot better in the Sun Belt, swing states, in the industrial Midwest, he's doing slightly better, but again, very slight. And so you'd have to think, you know, when I look at the the

I think we both said, that's where she lost the election, right there on that on the view, by going, Well,

you said it first, and I will give you credit, you said it immediately that this is the election. It's right there on the

view. You see what I do. I bring you into it, and I say, we know

you do. That was very I thought that was nice of you. But I will write back Indian, but I'll push the other way and say, You, nailed it right away. Indian giver, I give it. I mean, I have, uh, I thought about it, but I didn't make it, uh, determining at the level that you did. So as you you just have to take credit for that. Yeah, I Okay, I'll take it. And I think you're right. I think you're dead, right. I think that's the stupidest thing she could send. She was given a

what was the second opportunity? Oh,

she was asked the same question by by Colbert, and

she did it, but she didn't have this goofy look on her face. Did she? Yeah,

she that's the look she has. That's her look. She's got a goofy look. Yeah, no, she dropped the ball twice, just what Brook said. Now, k part, of course, of these clips, thank God, Joe. You know, he's a he. Yes, he is the, oh, you know, can almost the greatest thing since sliced bread. And, you know, black males should all vote for and everything you said is wrong, because if it's disparaging about Kamala, she's the greatest. And so he defends her. Jonathan, how

do you see it? The race today is the race as it was when she became the top of the ticket, as it was the night of the dreadful debate on June 27 as it was in the months before that. It's close, it's always going to be close. It was always going to be close. And the fact that Democrats are panicking, I'm not shocked by it. I'm annoyed by it, because, you know, you could do all the panicking you want, but it's

this so now they're in a circular jerk, a THON, oops. Worry about that, because if you ask anybody, what do you think of the Kamala interview? Do they say, Oh, you mean 60 minutes? No. Do they say, Oh, you mean on Colbert show, who has, I think, 100 like 1.2 million viewers? No. Do you know what they all say, Oh, you mean on caller daddy. These guys have no idea how over they are, caller they are, yeah, that's what that's all people are talking about, is the call,

Well, you gotta bring that up. I do have one screwball clip. This is a from the Gutfeld show. And this is the

John's evening. While viewing, we go from PBS news hour to the there's no NTD, I don't want to happen. And then we go to Gutfeld, yes. And then this

is Gutfeld telling a joke that I thought was funny. And this is about the porn for Harris. People do the porn. You know, the porns now the porn people are for Harris and gutfield mocks it in a, I thought, a amusing way, the porn

industry has launched a $100,000 ad campaign in support of Kamala Harris. Makes sense. They're both known for sucking,

yeah, so I saw, I saw that. I'm sorry. No, it's okay. I saw the I saw the campaign, and it's very tired, because it's all about Project 2025 like, if Donald Trump is elected, Project 2025 will outlaw porn and

Oh, is that? Oh, yeah. I was unaware of the of the actual campaign. I didn't

even clip it. It was so dumb, like, and I saw it last week. Okay,

that's what. This is a protection mode ad. Because they think this project 2025, thing. And somebody pointed out that they that the Heritage Foundation has been doing this stuff since the 80s, or not 90s. What they do? Yeah, and then all of a sudden it's been turned into a campaign point of information. Claiborne.

Claiborne, on CNN, Clyburn. Clyburn, yeah, he's the, he's the kingmaker. He's the kingmaker. You know, you get clyborne. He, he made Joe the, the candidate. I mean, has a lot of power. He comes on whatever. Dana, what's her face? Horse face on CNN. Dana Bash, I guess she was sorry. Dana Donna Donna Donna, and, and

Don Yeah, Donna Donna, Dana Donna Donna Donna Donna Donna.

And she says, Well, are you worried? He says, I am worried. And, but people need to know that if you elect Donald Trump, it's going to be Jim Crow 2.0 with Project 2025 like, holy crap. That's all they have. That's all they have nothing. They have nothing left nothing. They have nothing to say. And of course, it's not a close race, because America doesn't elect presidents like Kamala Harris, it just not gonna happen, not because she's a woman, not because she's black, it's just,

And I also want to thank your father, Vice President Dick Cheney, for his support, okay, and what he has done to serve our country. Every endorsement matters, and this endorsement matters a great deal Liz, and it carries the special, special significance

what he has done for our country, responsible for the death of American servicemen and women in a needless war for oil and nonsense. That's who you're thanking, Madam, Madam Vice President. And then this was kind of, this was kind of funny. This was, oh, wait, no, wait, no, this. This is before I get to the funny. This is the latest this. Okay, we've got him now. Now we've got him. I've got a plan. We had a meeting. All right. Time to do this. Madam, Vice President,

Vice President Kamala Harris is in excellent health. That's according to a letter by her White House doctor, she possesses the physical and mental resiliency required to successfully execute the duties of the presidency,

which, looking at Joe Biden, isn't much

despite no law compelling candidates to do so. Harris took aim at former President Donald Trump for not providing. His own health history. So today, I released my medical records, as I believe every candidate for President of the United States except Donald Trump in this election cycle, and it's just a further example of his lack of transparency.

You get the idea? So, oh, I know we're gonna do you can hear all. You can just see the memos. It's time to attack Trump on his on his age. He's demented. He's demented. And Trump demented part kills. Trump falls for it. He's like, no, no. It's called the weave. They people think I'm that I served that too. Is I'm genius at the weave. I'm great at the

know that, you know that podcast he was on with those four guys for comics. That's the one, yeah, did with the weave. That's where he came with the weave. Oh, he

mentioned the weave before, but he went into detail on the weave. He

that was, I don't have a clip of it, but I was reading about how one of the news organizations said that, oh, Trump tried to explain how he he's scatterbrained, and they all laughed at him. No,

no, no,

I know it's what I mean. Is just like, what? How are you interpreting this, any of this stuff, these people are terrible. They're terrible.

I have a clip, actually from that, and he said something which I was I found questionable. She

is an add on that I'm against IVF. She knows it's untrue. She is an add on that bloodbath. Bloodbath means, like, blood. That's not what I was talking about the automobile industry. It's going to be a bloodbath in the automobile we're going to lose all our business. That's what's referring to when they do things and they do a lot, but I always refer them back to the simplicity of McDonald's. She lied about McDonald's. She lied about many things, and she's a

Okay? It sounds like censorship to me. This would be some kind of a rule about it. Now we're gonna have to vet. Yeah, you're right. I

think that was a blunder. And

I think that that, to me, was blunderish. Yes, for sure, and then because

it's just falling in line with the other side. So

then Madam Vice President is on a zoom call with FEMA, and she's sitting at her desk. Oh yeah, this

is a good one. I'm surprised you clipped it because

I only clipped it because Sky News, Australia, you know the

woman and her buddies, everybody? Yeah, very funny stuff. Sky News, Australia,

you got enough problems of your own, but okay, we'll take this one now I don't think, I don't think they're right, and I think the way it played on social media was incorrect, but it was funny. Kamala

Harris made a bizarre gaff during an FEMA hurricane Milton emergency update broadcast which sent social media into a spin, the Vice President received a briefing from disaster relief authorities on preparations and weather forecasts for the hurricane. During the video briefing, Kamala Harris could be seen covering her mouth, appearing to relay a message to someone else through a microphone and E piece, the VP mumbled, it's a live broadcast. Behind her hands

so, yes, uh. Uh, if you really look at the video, which I did in my fork, on my 4k screen, she's looking off to the side of the camera, and someone's motioning to her, or maybe even holding up a sign for all I know, I'm not, I'm not into the Oh, she had a hidden earpiece. I just, I mean, get over yourselves. Twitter. Get over yourselves on the hidden earpiece thing? No, she's she's just that dumb and how they

slide notes to you anyway. I mean, you guys, of course, they do it when you can actually see them. Yes,

but this was the week where she also was doing a town hall with a teleprompter. And, you know, last week the teleprompter went out and she had a brain freeze. I mean, oh,

that was, that's the clip. That's, that's kind of a amusing.

I don't have it. I don't have Yeah, well,

I can just, do you have to do clip? No, I don't have it. I don't have it either, but I can just say what it was. She says, We have 32 days until the election, and then the teleprompter goes out. And then she looks around two days, 32 we got 32 days. Two or three times. It's like an idiot. We couldn't even, I mean, she can't even break the third, fourth wall, whatever you call it, and say, Hey, teleprompter went out. Yeah, so I don't really have anything else to say right now,

but it is amazing. I

mean, you do a lot of things when a teleprompter goes out. I remember the when I was on Tech TV. Here we go. Okay,

when you do this, I grab my coffee, I spin the stool, I cross my legs

that long? No, no, no, no, no.

Hey, people come for the media deconstruction. It is a fact they stay for John's story time. Yes, many

stories. So I'm on Tech TV, and this is the first time he said, because I was a prompter jockey on that show, because I had, I had different writers that wrote my copy. But once Jennifer Lavin, my producer, started writing my copy, she wrote in my voice, and it was perfect. It was better than anything I could ad lib. That's what you that's what

you want. You want someone. You want someone who can write for your prompter and someone who can roll your prompter. Yes, you

want a good person. This is usually a different person, yeah, but you want somebody that rolls the prompter and they pay attention to what you're saying and then they saying, and then they roll the prompter, but, but when you get someone who can write your copy, I mean, I once what you hear about people say, Well, I write my own copy. I write my own prompter copy. I'm always thinking, why are you an idiot to do that's dumb. That is dumb because it's like a skill. It's

and I've told the story before, but I'll do it again at MTV. The way it worked is, now I didn't have a lot of prompt or copy, but for shows like the top 20 video countdown, and we did the week in rock, it was scripted. And the way it worked back in the day, this is when the green screen was blue screen. We've talked about that. It was chroma key blue. Before it was green. That's how old we are. This was a conveyor belt that had a camera pointed down on the conveyor belt, and that

that would just add on to that. So I would also watch other people do their work. And Leo Laporte was the more interesting of the group, because Leo and this. I never did this. I did a little bit, but rarely Leo would wander off the prompter

that can do that too. I can wander off the prompter and come back. But the prompter guy

would go nuts, because it's like, what am I doing? You know, I they don't know what to do. No.

John the artist could do it. He got it. He would wait for,

well, that's a rare bird, because most people, when Leo would go off, he was yakking about something or others not on the prompter, just going and going and going. And this guy didn't know where to go forward or backwards, or where was he it was. And the thing would, it would it was hilarious to watch, and I would sometimes think of Leo did it on purpose. But maybe I rarely did that

before we take a break. I just wanted to salute our many producers of no agenda nation. They are everywhere. I want to talk about Helene and Milton later, because I have some boots on the ground reports regarding climate change and also regarding the climate haven that was Asheville we just have, and this is part of the time. We'll talk about them at the time talents and treasure that we want in this value for value podcast where, obviously we need treasure, we appreciate people

We got a lot of that. I also got, I also got a lot of notes on the X rays, moving the meteor law and very good ones from people. The last one, which I you weren't copied on, just came in this morning was this guy has all the formulas, and he says it would take a million years to move this thing. With these X rays, you can't get enough X rays. We

have a lot of smart people, and I, like the anonymous from Ireland, I sell Q, PCR instruments, which were used to test for SARS, covid, too. Oh, this, yeah, we

have to read that note just

listening to the latest podcast regarding Trump sending equipment to Putin back then, the exact same instruments Trump had access to were sold in Russia, whether our equipment or other brands, if Putin wanted one, he could have gotten one with no bother within Russia. So I call complete BS, of course, since the war, most companies, including ours, have stopped doing business. There some lovely Russian people who I'd met on many an occasion are out of a job. So Woodward's book is,

don't say anything, because they'll get mad at you. Yeah,

and they're right. Vlad, exactly. So a lot of people sent me this, and I love it when we have our men and women who who are in uniform, who serve America, the real people who serve America overseas and at home, when they let everybody know it's all right, we got your back. Hey, you crash in the ocean during a storm and you're floating on your plane. We're going to pick you up. I'm with the Coast Guard, and I'm going to let you know that I'm a part of no agenda nation.

Lieutenant Chad Paulson was involved in that rescue, and he joins me now. What happened here, sir? In the morning? Thank you for having me

in the morning. Nothing's better than that. Yeah,

in the morning. And it's funny, it just blows by people, because for one thing, it makes no sense. It's the best part. But it's like, well, maybe that's a greeting. I'm not sure. Yeah. Anyway. Now the cool thing is, when, when somebody says, in the morning, the other person says in the morning, well,

that's, that's what you hear on the in aviation. You hear the pilot, and then sometimes you'll hear the tower reply, because this is what it is the smartest people who make the world run listen to this podcast. That's just the fact I don't know, you know, I don't know any other and it's also because we don't insult them by, you know, running, would we running ads and telling, yeah, well, that is insult. Premium content is behind the fire wall. Premium content, that's my pet

John C's round ship. See boosts at the ground, feet in the air, subs in the water, and all the Dames and nights out there. All right, running up cotton. Do a

little count. Let me see. Money, 2204

at the peak, trolls listening in

what was the number? Again, 2204, low. It's

low by 200 All right. Well, we're glad to have you trolls here anyway. Thank you very much for listening at no agenda. Dot, stream or trollroom.io which is great because the trolls get in there and just roll with it. But without those trolls, I would have never come up with Jordache jeans. And there's some other insults that were in there, which is always fun. It's always it's not distracting

at all. We want to say something

DoorDash Jordache. Nothing becomes between me and my jaw dashes. I think that was the tagline. Oh, yeah, yeah. So the trolls can also listen on a modern podcast app, which, believe me, you're gonna want to have it the last show I people were so mad about what? Apple has an update. It's been three hours, but that that's apple. That's the whole point. We use this pod ping technology, which is a true technology, which is part of podcasting 2.0 and the modern apps, they update within

so when you blow it up and on like Twitter, it's a good piece.

It's gorgeous. It is now Tom Stoffel,

there's a cheesecake. It was overall. It wasn't just the butt, no nice legs, you know, just the back of someone. Yeah, this is a good picture. We I, I'm like, an advocate of cheesecake, because it's attractive, and that's what you put it there for. Even though you have a bunch of people, you know, you have some certain groups of people that think it's exploitative. It's not who will make Who are we exploiting here? This is AI art. We're not exploiting anybody.

I'm all for it. Now. I want all as much slop to flow through the stairwells of the digital Tower of Babel as possible. To make it unusable and unattractive. So keep it up, people. This is good. I'm now all for it. More more more the tan Stoffel, T, A, N, S, T, A, A, F, l, all uppercase. Thank you to the multitude of producers who said, um, dude, that's from science fiction author Robert Heinlein, and it's a theme in his writings. It is an acronym. There ain't no such

no, not at all, but we

did now, and well, thank you. There ain't no such thing as a free lunch. From now on, we'll just be tons. Stoffel, can't help it. We appreciate it. That was, it was a great piece. It really was. It worked out well. We thought it was fun. You know, I was reading, there was an interesting article on a second. There was a Dutch study that was done. Let me see, do I have it here? Yes. Study shows real art stimulates the brain

copy, it's a copy. What? How does he define a copy?

Scientists in the Netherlands prove that experiencing the real art in person stimulates the brain 10 times more than viewing a reproduced image. And so they took all these great Dutch masters from no agenda, Art Generator. But also, you know, Vermeer and Van Gogh, Vermeer is the one that they show in this article, which is, you know, the milkmaid, girl with her head turned back, and so they, they

they put a reproduction up on the wall in the museum? Yes, they did. They did. They did. Now that, which brings us to another interesting factoid. What about the artists? I'm not sure Vermeer was one of them, but most artists, Velasquez for sure, uh, they had a team of people, and they would do a portrait of somebody. Usually it was somebody in the royal family, and they would be copies. May hand it off. They have five copies, and they were all identical.

Well that that they did not study,

no because that would be the same. Maybe it should be the same because the artist and the and the and the and the mentees, the proteges who did the same exact pieces, they were taught by the same artists, and the brush strokes were similar. Everything was the same, and they make these copies. There's, there's plenty of examples around the museums of the world where where a piece exists in three museums at the same time, and they're all original. How does that work so?

Well, probably the same. I would say that those originals it. I think the point is between a an original piece of art versus the poster. The volunteers brain waves and eye

some of the art that we've we've put up, which is a much AI art. Yes, to that, I much be a much

be forgotten.

For example, this particular piece by scaramonga, who I don't know why he's submitting anything, because he hates us.

There's another clip being made. Yes,

there is a piece. I mean, this is a piece that is quite striking when you see it, uh, especially blowed up. And I it has a it has an effect. So I don't know,

is this some? Is this something that's new, that's up? No,

the his piece, this piece we're talking about? No, the piece with the tornadoes, that was not

Scaramanga. Oh, that was Scaramanga, yeah, I miscredited him. Yes. Well, I

didn't know you miscredited. I

didn't know. That's just my mistake. I

missed. Well, that's, you know, it doesn't like you, so

loves me. This is this

very these, some of these pieces have been quite spectacular. This,

this girl is the only. AI girl he has, he's the same girl, yeah? Well, this

yes, these guys, they have their, theirs, with their girl. That's, yeah, he has, yeah, there's a number, a couple artists have a girl and they keep using her, yeah, yeah, yeah. It's, it's kind of perverted. Do you think?

Thank you to all of the artists who submitted art. We appreciate it. Everyone, everyone does tries, and everyone has an equal shot. And of course, we're happy to critique wherever necessary. There really wasn't all that much. I kind of liked Dr Scott had a hurricane buttons with tsunamis, but compared to the Scaramanga piece, I mean, it was, it was just a that was a work of art. It was a literal work of art. Was there something else that we liked? I don't

She needs to be more haggard looking. That's the key operator. Put put the keyword in Yeah, put that word in there. Prompt, haggard, the prompt, by

the way, we titled The episode 1702, slop and Hopper, which,

we got some notes about that too.

Oh, did you get a note about slopping up writing good enough. Oh, yeah. Oh, you

guys are deaf. Obviously said swap for copper. And we, I

think we even mentioned that. But, okay, yeah, but we did

you listen and listen? It's like you listen once, one person, one of our female listeners, just you dummies. You heard it. You say you listen 10 times. It was very clearly swapping for copper. Did she

start to know it off with I'm surprised. I'm disappointed. Yeah, listen, it only took me two minutes to look that up. We're doing stuff on the fly. I looked it up. I knew

got some comments from some people, I'm

very disappointed no one has put a Star of David on it yet, or a yarmulke. Very disappointed. No, I've gotten no comments

even drew a mustache or anything, anything.

But we did get a contribution from miss you.

Did get a comment from Catherine in Cambodia or Thailand, or wherever she is. Well,

what's she saying? Nice teeth. Oh, well, thank you. Thank you. I saved a long time for them. Mr. Black is in resvec in the Netherlands, comes in with 526 36 and says, Dear John and Adam, what better to gift myself for my birthday, October 15, you're on the list than a no agenda Commodore credential. Thank you for your courage. And keep on, keeping on Mr. Black, who will become Commodore? Black? Yes,

especially if he goes to no agenda rings.com and puts in the details of where they send the Commodore certificate, yes, and what he wants to have on the certificate. A lot of people, we've only gotten, probably half the people have,

oh, you got to do that. People, you got to do that. Otherwise you won't receive it.

You got to do it. Yeah, because we don't know, you know, in his exact same the right shipping address, and the exact way, if

I may, this, it is, by far, probably the most beautiful document we've produced. I love how it was shipped. It comes in a not a small, but a large

that you're shipping. No, it doesn't. No, you got a special one in a tube. The rest of them are put in these large post stuff in 11 by 14, big, uh, hard, hard, post office, yes, yeah, and post office approved with it, with the sheet. Otherwise, it's exactly the same. The

point I was going to make is, I love that there's tracing paper so it's protected. I'm sure you're doing that dressing paper where they're all going to be. And it and the vellum and the seal. What is it? Vellum? Vellum? Give me some vellum. I like a five meters of vellum. The seal has, has blue ribbon, which is actual ribbon. It's very pretty piece.

It's also God says on the on the seals. Commodore, yes, yes, very, very I think it, I agree. It's the prettiest document that we've ever produced. Jay designed it, pretty much.

And it's an official Commodore ship,

yeah. So it's a good looking product,

outstanding product, as usual,

sir. Sleepy also could get one of these $500 Commodore ships. He's in Gentry, Arkansas, and he says, As a switcheroo, he'd like to gift gift the Commodore title to his dad, Larry Aaron Berger, as his pontoon project boat has recently passed sea worthiness tests. It is fitting that a newly commissioned vessel should have a newly commissioned captain. There you go, and Commodore. In this case, Commodore, keep up the great work and looking forward to four

right. Switch roo has been put in place. Ken Chapman is in Rosemont, Illinois, $500 in the morning. Gents as a Trekkie, the combination of 1701 shows on a Commodore ship was too good to pass. It's also an opportunity for me to update on my Canadian refugee status. Ah, oh, this is the guy with the bus and the family. I think, yes, I believe so. Oh yeah, I think so.

my wife, Dame elemental of the manasota key, was able to meet up with the gang only a day late to continue to reign of terror across the unsuspecting states. So you know,

it was really, Tina was texting with her, and they were kind of freaked out by the reporting, of course, and they were still there, and they couldn't, they couldn't get out because the the highway was all jammed. They wound up spending the night with their dog in, I think, a school, there was some shelter, and they went back their house was, I guess, okay, and she was able to get a flight out, and she flew right up and

Please earmark the donation for whatever you deem to ensure their freedom. Shout out to Sir Don from Arizona, as I'm sure he will be following up with a donation for springing his wife from the joint two no jingles, but please send some karma to the Florida Gulf Coast. Thanks, Mike, yeah. Thank

My name is Casey Conrad, and I'm a longtime listener and a first time donor. Please accept my donation. 2018, dot 99 and Canadian dollarettes for an Associate Executive Producer title, which is probably like $10 USD, due to the Canadian dollar being so abysmally bad, right? We honor your dollar

you've been deduced. And

give me some karma for this new endeavor. Thank you kindly in advance,

you've got karma

you want just classic PCs. I watched a YouTube video last night, did you know that the they've brought back the Commodore 64 called the Commodore 64x and it's no and it's exactly the same casing. It has the same keyboard, but it has like, I think, and get it loaded with Linux. But it's, you have to see this thing they've done all the sound effects. I mean, it's, it's mind blowing. You can load all the old games. It has emulators on it is really stunning. Yeah, real just

yes, well, his wife, because you've brought up, we went back and forth, a little email exchange things we do. It's one of the rare things we can we do communicate on occasion. And you said, Well, his wife and I, and I looked her up, and she's like, she has, she's a cat lady, massive, massive cat lady. She's rescued 1000 cats, and so, so I had to conclude that there's, there's no way that the two of them don't have a case of toxoplasmosis. Bing, boom, done,

a self destructive virus, which is exactly what he has. So,

so I just think that toxoplasmosis may be in play here, which because it just seems like there's something's wrong,

yes, and so, but he been the goy.com it's worth a watch if you are a super fan and we're disappointed they they lay it all out. It's an hour and a half. What can I say? Tina's hiking.

Last on our list is Linda LAPACK in Lakewood, Colorado.

Keep the show going four more years, or at least until the new year. It'd be fun to continue that. Thank you again to our executive and Associate Executive producers of episode 1703 of the no agenda show. Our

formula is this. We go out. We get people in the mouth. They're eating the dogs. Shut up. Shut

up. I want to you know, of course, we've had these, these horrific hurricanes. I have a little follow up on what happened in western North Carolina. Duke Energy is the big provider up there, the same Duke Energy, who has left our producer, Bruce 72 in the cold, is now below freezing at night in the mountains. Is 17 days. He needs some power. People. He has he has water and he has food. So

the Catawba River in Charlotte. My heart is just fractured to look out shoals lake in Claremont smells like rotting fish, this sour smelling, and it's just it's hard to breathe. Two communities, 40 miles apart, are connected by water. Both are at the mercy of the utility that controls it. Each shares their own sense of extreme loss and anger. Duke Energy fell asleep at the wheel. But actually, they didn't fall asleep. They were wide awake. They didn't do what they

Obviously, a local report,

um, sounds like AI, no,

no. It's, it's uh, W, n, C, W, I think you know, it wouldn't surprise me, seeing as when, when we were in Austin and the snowpocalypse hit, and the first thing I did is unplug the east side of I 35 and the former New York banker, they had power never went out. So, yeah, I think it's possibly true that they take care of their own over there, boots on the ground from the climate Haven. We know the climate Haven. We had a clip on the last show, if you recall, oh, it's a climate Haven. It's

I think he's right, yeah,

I agree. Well, she Ville as a she Ville, yes. So I have the NOAA prediction from May of 2024 which I'll just read. The headline, NOAA predicts. This is from their website. NOAA predicts above normal 2024 Atlantic hurricane season. Well, this was not an Atlantic hurricane, and so far it's been quite low, boots on the ground, from our producer, from a home insurance product manager, privy to some pretty solid data over the years. As you can imagine, do we have the

going for the profits now that all of this, if you can, if you can fool them, take the money, take the money

and run them. All of this, of course, does not change. Or why would it the climate nut jobs in Washington state for jumping on the bandwagon. Oh, oh, we've got to do more.

It is difficult to compare a hurricane with a Pineapple Express, the exception of the rain and a lot of we're thinking and sending our positive thoughts to our neighbors in the southeast of the country. It was a topic at a meeting of UW climate scientists and state leaders who authored a new Washington climate resilience strategy point to the record Nooksack flooding of 2021 as an example of how warmer weather has increased. Rain intensity.

Rather climate more money, more money, more money. Meanwhile, the Sahara Desert, old lakes and rivers are coming back to life. You seen those pictures? No, oh, oh, it's, it's outrageous.

It already sounds like AI. No, no, no, no. This

is, this is real. Here, the

Sahara, the world's largest hot desert, has been hit by heavy rainfall, turning the sand dunes into a scene of blue lagoons and nourishing some of its most trot stricken regions. A river that has been dry for decades have come back to life after the rainfall. There's even a lake that has been dry for 50 years named Lake koriki, between the Zagora and Tata regions, so the old desert lakes will come back to life. Yes.

So did you know that there were desert lakes?

I know now, yeah. So there was 50 years, if they were 50 years ago, what was causing that

climate change? I don't know. You know, stinky cars, horrible cars and in the Mediterranean, I pulled this clip only for the very last end. This is a guy who's checking out the underwater vegetation in the Mediterranean.

Gerwin Gretchen gets ready for his next dive. He's explored the waters in Croatia's valsalina Bay many times already. The Austrian marine biologist first started diving here 35 years ago. I can say with certainty that the first 20 or maybe 25 years since I first came here, there were hardly any changes. But the last six to 10 years, there has been an incredible amount of change.

We're in danger of suffocating in our own filth. You filthy, nasty people eating meat, whatever you're doing, you know, the lat, the latest thing in trying to stop the impact of of cattle is feeding him red seaweed

to reduce poisonous stuff.

I was it poisonous?

Well, I mean, the

red tide is this algae?

Yes,

I don't know red seaweed. I

don't know what red seaweed is.

One solution to this turf problem could come from the surf. The seaweed is somewhat of the holy grail of climate change in terms of solutions from the ocean. Dr Jen Smith is researching how this species of seaweed called asparagopsis, taxi, for Miss, can stop all that burping once it is fed to the livestock. That simply prevents methane from ever being formed, and therefore the cows don't burp

That doesn't sound like the beef is going to be very tasty.

Low methane beef probably tastes like fish. Can you imagine, never fry a some beef and a cast iron skillet that you cooked fish in? Oh, no,

that's a no, no.

You end up with a very the flavor is just not ruined. With something you ruined, it's ruined,

ruined, ruin that

can be fixed. How about playing this? Then are you gonna talk about beef? Let's talk about bird flu.

Oh, we're back.

Avian influenzas was first detected in California's dairy cattle a little born then a month ago, and now it's been confirmed to more than 80 of the state's dairy herds and in three dairy workers. Kerry Klein from member station kvpr has more dairy workers are being equipped with more PPE like face shields and disposable booties, farms are also restricting people and vehicles on site. Trisha Steve or Blatt LARP is with the Farm Bureau in Tulare County, the country's largest milk producer.

Can't win. Now this is also stupid. They're just filling air time at this point. There was an interesting twist to the Tick Tock saga, which is ongoing, which what

saga we discussing? Well,

of course, we still have. Uh, they have a deadline coming up, I think when they have January, yeah, yeah. So there's deadline coming up where they have to sell to an American entity. At the same time, 14, uh, attorney generals in 14 different states are suing them over harming children. And now some documents were not properly redacted, and CBS got a hold of him. Tiktok

executives knew how damaging their app was to young users, according to legal documents, we were never supposed to see CBS. Jo Ling Kent reports tonight on these secret internal communications, just days after multiple states sued Tiktok for allegedly designing the app to addict children. New details have emerged about how they say the company does it in this lawsuit filed by the state of Kentucky, sections of the complaint were not properly redacted, as first

What was that number? Listen

again. He's lawsuit

claims Tiktok knows all it takes to hook an average user is viewing 260 videos as short as eight seconds, thus, in under 35 minutes, an average user is likely to become addicted to the platform.

How about that?

Wait a minute. Very few eight without calculation was based on eight, all videos being eight seconds. No, no, no. People to get to 35 minutes at 260 Yes,

but I think people typically look at a video and after eight seconds, they swipe up to the next one. I think that's what they're talking about. I

don't think so. Hey, I didn't say that. You just made it up. No,

I'm interpreting the CBS News report. I'm not making anything up, and

a feature designed to encourage teens to take a break after 60 minutes on the app, quote does not actually impose a screen time limit. Instead, its goal improving public trust via media coverage, Tiktok allegedly knew its time management tools reduced usage by only 90 seconds.

Here's the thing, I don't believe that they're hooking teenagers. I think they're hooking full blown adults, because that's all I see.

Okay, I watch tick tock videos, yeah,

but not a whole watch. You don't end of a maybe you don't, you don't use the app.

No, of course, I don't know, but I want that. I don't hold on a second big what would I use the app on? No,

I know. Yes, we know you're the best. John C Dvorak, I have no, I

got no saying I'm, I'm reason. I'm a reasonable person. I guess I've seen the light. I know where the phones belong, yes,

but I'm, what I'm saying is, this is the app that is designed to keep you engaged, and if you don't swipe up, it swipes up automatically. This. None of this happens on your on the website, so you are not going to become addicted. Although,

of watching 260 videos, that's a lot. I don't think I've watched totally, and we've been doing the show, and I've been using tick tock videos now for a couple of years. I still don't think I've gotten to 260

No, but you're you're not the target market. They're not trying to addict you. That guy's gonna addict everybody. That guy's hopeless. No, you're on a web browser. You're no good. You're no good as a follow up. It's really

frustrating to know that Tiktok had information internally from their own research that suggested that their app was causing harm in particular ways, and that they chose not to act on that information. No the Kentucky complaint has since I mean, they

chose not. Let's, let's back up to the early days of the Internet and these news organizations that I because I wrote for a number of them. And you write for these guys and you say, Well, I'm doing an article that this would be, I could name names, but just all of them were this way, all of them, you'd write something and say, Where's this? You put a link in there, because you're trying to explain something, and, you know, boom,

I have no words.

No, I just asked. Yes. No,

this is no different. It's no different. But apps are totally intended to keep you in the app continuously. That's,

again, well, there's

the difference is. The difference is the app is doing a lot more than a website. The website has a cookie, but the app knows if you're walking, if you're laying down, it, you know it may be listening. I mean all the EULA stuff that you approved Yes,

using your contact list and opening the camera Yes, exactly. The Kentucky

complaint has since been resealed and the Attorney General declined our request for an interview in a statement, Tiktok called NPR highly irresponsible for publishing this information, adding the lawsuit cherry picks misleading quotes and takes outdated documents out of context to

believe that, well, you have to go empirically. Yes, it seems to be something's causing what you what that description that those symptoms are caused by something. Let's

listen to that list again. The

Kentucky lawsuit also alleges Tiktok own research found that compulsive usage correlates with a slew of negative mental health effects, like loss of analytical skills, memory formation, contextual thinking, conversational depth, empathy and increased anxiety.

Let's put this to the test with a with a man on the street piece that France 24 did as and this is, this is real. This is really interesting. They couldn't find bigger idiots than these people. They did a report over the influence of AI and deep fakes, how it looms large over the US presidential race. So they, so they, they play one, you know, the Mr. Reagan, he does a lot of these parody ads and stuff. Yeah,

he's got somebody working in his organization that's putting together good, a lot of AI stuff.

And he even puts on them parody. I mean, I've seen it run down, says parody. So they take one of these, don't tell people, is parody, and they go out to Washington, DC and show this to people. And these are people, tourists in DC, who are kind of mulling around outside the White House. Listen to this.

This campaign app, posted by Elon Musk, has over 136 million views, but it's actually a fake made with artificial intelligence. So if you criticize anything I say you're both sexist and racist. Joe taught me rule number one, carefully hide your toes. It perfectly captures Kamala Harris's voice and likeness. But Musk failed to clarify that the video was fake when he shared it on his social media platform X, he simply says, This is amazing.

very low IQ themselves, or who are watching too much Tiktok have very

little faith in people to be a little bit skeptical. But is it so easy to determine that the videos are

fake? Now listen carefully to the three subjects they've chosen for this report. We

asked Americans if they could tell the difference. What do you think she sure knew a lot of information about being someone being senile, and didn't come forward straight away. This is a fake video. Are you able to spot it right away? I'm not. It might be my age. Somebody used her voice. And what about you? Yeah, I think that's all. I don't know what they're trying to are they advertise. Can't really tell whether the news clip or video clip is for them or against them. The

so they get an old lady. Who says, I'm not too sure. Maybe it's my age. They get two people who say it's fake, and then some whack job gay guy who's like, just put me on here. And then she says, clearly, it confuses everybody, this is bull crap. It's total what horse crap this is, yeah,

yeah. I'm surprised you played it, because it doesn't back up your basic thesis. Well, to to

to complete the segment. Thank you. Producer, anonymous, Hi, Adam. Just for your personal enjoyment, I spend some of my free time on outlier. Ai, it's a platform that pays humans to train AI. I found I received the best feedback from my human reviewers on my training of the AI when I use Gemini AI to assist my training. Entropy at its finest. I love that training.

Oh, it's it's definitely headed in that

direction. It is, it is. It can't happen fast enough. I'm

very It won't happen as fast as you hope. No, I

know, but I but a girl can dream.

So at least this field, what can I do? One international news story, so we get it out of the way. You can do whatever you want. You can do. Let's do Israel versus Macron. I just think this has been going on for a while. We haven't played these clips yet. You're

right. Powerful new explosions rocked Beirut's southern suburbs tonight, as Israel expands its bombardment of the Hezbollah and Hamas militant groups in Lebanon earlier, Israel struck a Palestinian refugee camp in the North for the first time, killing a Hamas commander. 1000s of people in Lebanon continue to flee the widening conflict in the region. Palestinians along a key corridor there are facing

Well, what caught my attention on that one was what Netanyahu said, Seven. I'll ask you, what are the seven fronts?

Let me see, we have Gaza, we have Syria,

we have who? Well, wait, wait, that's not a front the Golan Heights.

I think I thought that's Lebanon, no, no. Lebanon, okay,

well, let's Well, I just put up say, Okay, you give me love.

You give me two. I'm giving you later two. Okay, Lebanon, three. Oh, Houthis, four, four. I it's not a front, but you're gonna have to give him Iran, because they are shooting the rockets. Five, five. Canada, Canada is six. Yeah,

find me two more Brazil.

I'm let me think.

What's he saying when he says seven fronts this

bullcrap was Yemen is does Yemen count? Or is that now, Houthis, the Houthis West Bank? No, not really. Jordan, Jordan, of Jordan's piece? No, of course,

they're buddies. Egypt's the same way.

Kyiv, Ukraine. I mean, I'm out. I'm out. I don't know.

I gave you two extra ones. I mean, come on. Very good,

very good question. I do not know. Maybe because America controls Israel, maybe he's just talking like an American,

it's need a Kamala, exactly. And Biden, that'd be the seven boom. And

Biden, there's your other fronts.

Okay, part two of that clip,

he included the occupied West Bank captured by Israel in 1967 as one of those fronts. Netanyahu said all civilized countries should be standing with Israel. His message to Macron, shame on you. It's

getting a little hard when you hear this particular construction or deconstruction of the Israeli plan about Gaza London. Let's

bring in Aaron breckman, the senior teaching fellow at the Department of War studies at King's College London. Great to have you on the program this evening. Great to talk to you, Aaron. First of all, I know you are. Former IDF soldier as well. I think you served, am I right to say back in 1982 in the Lebanon conflict? So your context and analysis very important this evening. Just give me your understanding of what's going on in the north of Gaza right now.

send all the civilians down south, 350,000 and then bomb the 5000 gun. They got to be terrorists. They got to be they got to be the bad guys. I, you know, someone sent me a a new interview with Michael Hudson. You know, we've played the clips of him before. Don't remember? Yeah, he's the economist, and he was in, he was in the war college, and did a lot of consulting for Brzezinski and all those guys back in the

Yeah, just have to up the ante for volunteers, right? You

can't use nukes because that's mutually assured destruction. But we still have this, this neocon, maybe neoliberal. We need to go after the oil. We want all the re we want all the resources. It's still the same a holes who want all the resources. So Israel is perfect, because they will fight, and, you know, they fight ideologically. They like, you

or stooge? Yeah,

I know half of the audience, like, No man, the Jews control everything.

Senator, okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, it's fine. Of course,

it's actually not them. Most of the audience that thinks that way. They really don't like our show. I'm

thought people liked it. I thought people liked that tip. I saw people posting on x about it, yeah,

yeah. But the problem is that with that tip is that there was a I could have topped it with something that's a little more close to home, which is that apparently, Steve Gibson,

oh, he has software. He's always has some software. He has

a free software that specifically for this product, for this purpose. Oh, I didn't, Oh, didn't really. Yeah, and so I wanted to tip that, and I just got to get the name of it. I don't have it on my I forgot to print it out. But it's a, I think if you go to his website, Steven Gibson, whatever, Steve,

can anybody? Can anybody help us out real quick in the trolls probably find it. So it does the exact same thing by by making sure that

you're that you're the

drive is real, grc.com

Steve Gibson, I hear us.

I hear grc.com is what's being yeah,

that's, that would be his website. Yes. Okay, yeah. So go to valid drive. That's

the name of it. Valid drive, valley, Valley li drive, oh, Valley drive, Valley drive, the

valid drive, valid, if it's valid. So anyway, so I wanted to do that. And, you know, since I've been backing off on some of these, because this newer, and it does, you know, the other one is, kind of is still floating around, but this would probably be better, better way to go. That's your tip. Oh, that's
