0:42
Adam Curry: it's just it's three days in and I haven't noticed
0:45
anything this is this is weird. That's weird, huh? Yeah. Oh,
0:52
John C Dvorak: well, no. Wait, history events that took place
0:55
there was the interview with Tucker Carlson.
0:59
Adam Curry: So please, that how about this? How about this,
1:04
there is a 75th anniversary celebration of your show of
1:12
democracy of democracy with Amy Goodman. It's KPFA KPFA 75 years
1:22
of building community trust. It's in Berkeley right in your
1:24
backyard. You can go hang with Amy. Michelle, you want tickets?
1:29

1:46
baby. Hey, I got a I mean, something beautiful happened.
1:51
And it's one of those things where it's like something cool
1:55
happens. And then you look at what happened and then all of a
1:59
sudden, you find out it was all a setup.
2:04
John C Dvorak: mean like every other thing that we discuss?
2:06
Yeah, yeah, true.
2:08
Adam Curry: But this one is very interesting. This is the German
2:13
air force top brass.
2:16
John C Dvorak: Well, yeah. On
2:18
Adam Curry: a it's amazing how it happens. You thought it only
2:21
happened to Victoria Nuland. Now the famous FTE you call. But
2:27
there's some more details have come out about this wiretap as
2:30
the German air force top brass was talking about bombing
2:35
bombing stuff. The German
2:36
Unknown: government says Russia wiretapped a conversation
2:39
between German air force generals about the war in
2:42
Ukraine. The officers are discussing Ukrainian forces
2:45
using a German made a torus cruise missiles to attack the
2:49
bridge link in Crimea to Russia. And Germany has so far refused
2:53
to supply cube with the long range weapons. The defense
2:56
ministry in Berlin has also now confirmed that the conversation
3:00
which surfaced on social media was tapped. Chancellor Olaf
3:05
Scholz swift clarification for the recording,
3:08
what is being reported is very serious. That's why it is
3:12
necessary to begin a very thorough, intensive and rapid
3:16
investigation, not finish.
3:17
Alexandra. This seems like a real embarrassment for Berlin.
3:21
Have we heard any further reaction from Chancellor
3:24
Schultz? No
3:25
love shows more cool here in the room. We just got this one
3:29
statement on the metro statement in which the German Chancellor
3:33
stressed that this this is a serious matter that is being
3:37
investigated, but then he went on with his program here in
3:42
Rome. But of course, we know that he also knows that he is
3:46
facing uncomfortable questions at home, especially when it
3:51
comes through that this conversation among high ranking
3:55
German officers was conducted not on a secret internal army
4:01
network but on the WebEx platform, despite repeated
4:07
warnings by Germany's intelligence services, that
4:11
Russia uses Aska espionage and sabotage as part of its hybrid
4:17
war. And we are already hearing from lawmakers in Germany from
4:22
lawmakers in the opposition but also from members of the
4:27
coalition that
4:30
Adam Curry: blah blah you're okay. I'm sorry. You're bored
4:34
I'm sorry you're by no
4:35
John C Dvorak: I'm bored but I'm Yeah, bit but that's not the
4:39
point. I think you should have said this clip up because I
4:41
don't think a lot of people know what you're talking about.
4:43
Adam Curry: You're kidding me? No. Well, I just I set the clip
4:47
up. I said there was to
4:49
John C Dvorak: the extent that I think it shouldn't be set up
4:51
which is, you know, what were these guys talking about? Well,
4:54
no,
4:54
Adam Curry: no, no, wait, wait. I'm doing with you in the other
4:58
order. Because This is the only news people are getting. The
5:02
only news people are getting his hold. There was a leaked call on
5:05
the WebEx now. Thank you. Now we need to talk about what they
5:10
were talking about, which was blowing up the bridge that goes
5:13
to Crimea, and using Taris missiles for that, talking about
5:19
their already being British boots on the ground American
5:23
boots on the ground. And now we continue with the next clip. In
5:26
his
5:26
Unknown: speech at the Congress of the European Socialists in
5:29
Rome, he once again said he doesn't want to see boots on the
5:33
ground in Ukraine, that everything needs to be done to
5:37
prevent a war between Russia and NATO. However, we also have to
5:42
say that the argument that was put forward by the German
5:46
government why they're not willing or not willing to send
5:50
the terrorists a cruise missile to recruit Ukraine, the argument
5:54
was that for that there would need to be German soldiers on
5:58
the ground in Ukraine. And during this tap conversation, we
6:02
learned that actually, that is not justified that don't need to
6:07
be German soldiers on the ground. So we'll see how the
6:10
discussion is going to be led in the long term. But in the short
6:14
term, I don't think that the German Chancellor is going to
6:18
change his mind on that.
6:19
Adam Curry: Now remember, just earlier this week, the
6:23
chancellor Schultz came out and said, No, no, we're not going to
6:26
send any tourists missiles. We're not doing that. We're not
6:30
going to be a part of that, because we don't want Germany,
6:33
you know, fighting a war with Russia. And this is the
6:37
interesting part. This vid this call came out on social media.
6:44
Deutsche Chevelle is the first one, as far as I know, that had
6:46
it in mainstream media. And the narrative is continuously the
6:50
Russians. The Russians did it. The Russians leaked it.
6:53
Unknown: So what could be Russia's aim in publishing this
6:57
kind of sensitive intelligence and doing it now?
7:01
I would say it's two aims. The first one is to signal to the
7:05
German government and German Army leadership that there are
7:09
knows what is being debated on klasik meetings. So Ross has
7:14
over the kind of access to these talks, and can take them and can
7:19
publish them in general. And the second one is, the Russia wants
7:24
to Germany to make Germany Think twice before delivering cruise
7:29
missiles like ours to the Ukraine or delivering any other
7:32
kind of heavy weapons to the Ukraine. Because the question
7:37
is, how far can Germany go? And how far wants Germany go in
7:41
supporting Ukraine without without becoming a part of this
7:45
war?
7:45
Adam Curry: Because, listen, if Russia has not claimed anything,
7:51
they have not said that they they tap this and they put this
7:54
out. And in fact, I don't think they did. I think this is the
7:59
military industrial complex. signaling to Schultz, dude, yes,
8:05
you will. We need purchases. You need to buy Taurus missiles. We
8:10
need those in the fields. You need to get the Hello, we're
8:13
looking for your order. We're looking for more orders. Because
8:16
on Wednesday, Deutsche Avella same network that has this, you
8:21
know, oh, the Russians. Oh, that's what this this whole boy
8:25
WebEx, the same. Deutsche Avella interviewed Ben Hodges for 20
8:30
minutes, who lives in Germany. Now, just as an aside, he used
8:34
to be the Allied Commander for the US in Europe. And he had
8:39
some very interesting things to say about her Shultz Secretary
8:42
Unknown: General Stoltenberg superb Admiral Bauer, the
8:46
chairman and Military Committee, superb general Cobolli Supreme
8:49
Allied Commander, superb, but the nations do seem disjointed.
8:55
And I think to be candid, unfortunately, the German buenas
8:59
casler Seems the one that is the most out of step. Everybody
9:05
John C Dvorak: back did he say canceller or chancellor?
9:09
Unknown: Let me say and I think to be candid, unfortunately, the
9:14
German one does Kessler
9:16
Adam Curry: Well, he's saying he lives there. So it's constantly
9:19
here in German so we're saying Canceler because you know this
9:23
like when Madonna lived in London for a while and and she
9:26
would have that phony accent but it does come out as Canceler
9:30
which is kind of funny. But unfortunately, he's not on
9:34
board. Remember this is before this call was leaked and
9:37
Unknown: did unfortunately the German buenas Kasler seems the
9:42
one that is the most out of step with everybody else. It must be
9:45
really painful for him to be having to do things he's doing
9:50
now, providing aid to Ukraine, building out the bonus fare,
9:55
different from what he ever imagined he would be doing when
9:58
he was a younger, Polish isn't, so we have to teach him a
10:01
lesson. But it's essential. I mean, Germany, the most
10:05
prosperous, richest country in Europe, the massive industrial
10:10
capacity has got to help guide. Otherwise, if Ukraine fails,
10:18
we're going to be in a terrible conflict with Russia in Europe,
10:22
and Germany is going to pay a massive price.
10:24
Adam Curry: I'm telling you this, this, listen to this,
10:27
listen carefully what he's saying. The Military Industrial
10:30
Complex leak this call to send a message to Schultz, but
10:34
Unknown: the thing they always wanted to avoid is coming back.
10:37
But
10:38
we have to be fair with German Chancellor, Titan vendor data
10:42
and they're really like, increasing the spending in the
10:46
military budget. Absolutely.
10:48
That's, that's what's so confusing. Is because two years
10:52
ago, it was like, you know, exciting than the 100 billion
10:56
euros. And then even the other day, yeah,
11:00
Adam Curry: two years ago, he was all on board. He was like,
11:02
Yeah, we're gonna send you 100 billion euros. We're buying all
11:05
this is confusing. He needs a little prompting, I think,
11:08
Unknown: you know, he's out there breaking ground for an
11:10
ammunition factory. Now another thing I'm sure he never imagined
11:14
he would do. These are all good positive steps. Germany agreeing
11:18
to a brigade the regatta Talon by 2020 So these are very
11:25
powerful, strong signals. But then on the other hand here in
11:29
just the last few days, he's undone damage, this sense of
11:35
Germany really leaning forward with the almost panicky
11:41
statement like we're not going to put troops on the ground and
11:44
the absolute refusal to provide tourists I mean very very
11:50
clearly no way we're going to do that which I think is
11:55
unfortunate because that would really be helpful to Ukraine. We
11:58
have this
11:59
Adam Curry: to make you comply shots I'm telling you we did
12:03
this
12:05
John C Dvorak: we did the American argue that we did I'm
12:07
pretty sure we did this oh yeah, but it's Russia Russia bull crap
12:12
about oh don't use WebEx because our intelligence services they
12:16
not do but they did it anyway. Oh, the way things go it's the
12:20
best if you're told by the intelligence groups not to use
12:24
WebEx you don't go off with a phone call like this on WebEx.
12:29
Adam Curry: No of course not. And it was really Cavalier these
12:33
guys
12:33
John C Dvorak: to you also did my our Deutsche Vala is a we've
12:37
determined is a outlet for the CIA's voice
12:44
Adam Curry: voice of reason.
12:45
John C Dvorak: It says it's a speakerphone for the CIA
12:50
whatever they do is suspect dude
12:52
Adam Curry: we were we were tapping angles we were tapping
12:56
angle of Merkel's phone during Obama. Command Germany Get with
13:00
it. Now this this all this was was oh, I'm sorry Sheltie and
13:04
you're not hearing anything about the content of the
13:06
message. Now all you're hearing is yeah, you It's unfortunate.
13:11
You don't want to use the stars missile. These are great. i What
13:15
is it? What is one of these Taurus missiles costs? What's
13:17
one Taurus pop? This is all it's also so sneaky. Look it up. I
13:23
mean, war is all wars about is just money, money, money, money,
13:27
money, money, money, money, money. We're now printing money
13:30
at the rate of what was it? $1 trillion, about every 100 days.
13:37
To what I'm hearing, have you heard this is just a meme. Oh,
13:40
this is from CNBC. The US national debt is rising by 1
13:44
trillion about every 100 days. That's three months. Now, so and
13:50
what and what are we? Why are we printing it to buy stuff for
13:54
Ukraine? Which Don't worry everybody. It goes right here in
13:57
America. Someone actually gave me said, Who was this, Eric, he
14:04
said a couple of times recently that somehow the government is
14:06
propping up the US economy by sending money to Ukraine. And
14:09
it's absolutely true. The way you calculate GDP and economics
14:13
is by adding up consumer spending, government spending
14:16
domestic investment, basically capital expenditures by
14:20
corporations and net exports. So when we hand buckets of cash to
14:24
the military industrial complex, it increases government
14:27
spending. And when they decide to upgrade or build a new
14:30
factory, it increases domestic investment by printing money and
14:33
handing it to military contractors. The GDP goes up.
14:37
Does that sound right to you? Yeah, well, there it is.
14:41
John C Dvorak: The missiles cost a million. That's all Yeah,
14:45
they're cheap.
14:45
Adam Curry: What but that's, that's wholesale. What do we
14:47
what are we selling for retail? That's only a million bucks.
14:52
Nah, yeah.
14:54
John C Dvorak: Oh, wow. I'm surprised
14:56
Adam Curry: by that. They need to order a whole A bunch.
15:01
John C Dvorak: Oh yeah, I'd
15:02
Adam Curry: say 1000 1000 1000 100 100 1000s of
15:07
missiles. Nah, man, this is skies.
15:10
John C Dvorak: I get to screw loose once you get to the word.
15:13
Yeah. How come there's all this talk at no talk about going to
15:15
the negotiating table?
15:17
Adam Curry: Well, that will be wrong. Oh, well, we have. Let's
15:21
see. Let's, I mean, they're so desperate right now. Anderson
15:26
360s. Like, what can we do? Let's bring out Garry Kasparov.
15:31
Let's bring out the chess guy. That makes sense. Does
15:35
John C Dvorak: anyone bringing him out for anything ever? He's
15:38
just a complainer. Here he is in a position where Ukraine
15:42
artillery in the counter offensive we're firing. I think
15:45
it was, you know, at shells a day. Now there can only fire
15:49
about 10 because they just don't have because Republicans in
15:52
Congress here
15:53
Unknown: over time, and again,
15:55
Adam Curry: they went from there was 20. And now it's 10. I mean,
15:59
this thing is having quicker than Bitcoin. Oh,
16:02
Unknown: the GDP of the of the NATO countries versus Russia,
16:05
Iran, North Korea this this this coalition of Maxim's of evil is
16:09
25 to one who cares if Russia again can confer six, seven
16:13
times more shells. I mean, notice that Ukraine as North
16:16
Korea provided more shells to Russia than the entire Europe.
16:21
You tell me this is the disposition a serious Ukrainians
16:25
are bleeding, you know, defending their country freedom
16:28
later. And also they trying to stop this this this money. And
16:34
and the free world is still contemplating how we can deal
16:37
with that. And Putin. Look at him a couple of days ago, Jesus,
16:40
he delivered his he's a speech. And he was happy and always
16:45
talks about oh, let's wait for Russian people to rise. Not only
16:50
tried, he tried to show that something could be done in
16:52
Russia. It was I'm not sure it was politically smooth. But you
16:57
cannot criticize acts of personal Harry's he paid with
17:00
his life that he was murdered putting had to pay $300 billion
17:05
of Russian money frozen. Where is President Biden?
17:08
Adam Curry: There you go. What are you waiting for Biden take
17:10
the money 300 billion take the money. That's why Garry Kasparov
17:13
is there. Get that 300 billion get it? By the way, I found out
17:19
that was Alinsky is no longer officially President of Ukraine
17:24
but they didn't have elections his the term is up and there's
17:29
no provision in the Ukrainian constitution or whatever they
17:33
have that automatically extends his his power so he actually he
17:39
can't really even sign a peace treaty he's not officially the
17:42
President just as a little side note there
17:47
John C Dvorak: yeah, this is what do you call it a scam? No.
17:54
fine print No, it is a technicality.
17:58
Adam Curry: There's no there is no fine print. It's no fun for
18:01
the
18:01
John C Dvorak: gallery. He's still signed the thing and
18:03
nobody would say anything. I don't know what they're gonna
18:07
make. They're not negotiating they're not talking about
18:09
negotiating. It's not even brought up by anybody even in
18:13
the news media. Nobody says anything about it.
18:16
Adam Curry: No, because that's otherwise our economy collapses
18:20
unless we can start a new war now I think we're gonna do
18:24
Hezbollah but this tiny to Israel thing is tiny Hezbollah's
18:28
tiny. You know, Ukraine is just too much of a bonanza. I don't
18:33
see how they can ever replace it. Unless unless we go Iran but
18:38
we we need many tanks and this is what they like. Tanks and
18:43
missiles and lots of balls. Schools. Yeah. Old school stuff.
18:47
Yeah, they don't they don't want to have something like nuclear
18:49
wars. No good.
18:52
Unknown: It's no good. Yeah, it'd
18:54
John C Dvorak: be okay for the rebuilding. Yeah, but you get
18:57
the real cleanup crews. People
19:00
Adam Curry: you should read the diary was a diary of an economic
19:04
hitman diary. Diary of an economic hitman fishing. Yeah,
19:08
Confessions of an economic hitman, the original version,
19:12
not not the reprints not the updated version, John Perkins
19:16
and explains exactly how this goes. And the rebuilding of
19:19
Ukraine is already starting. They're already starting in
19:22
Kyiv. Now, that's what some of the European moneys for. I mean,
19:27
while Putin of course, gave his annual State of the Union
19:29
address as covered by the BBC,
19:31
Unknown: Vladimir Putin has been given his State of the Nation
19:34
Address. He talked about the risks of a nuclear war and said
19:39
the West provoked the war in Ukraine. And we'll hear that in
19:43
a moment. First, let's take a look at some of the claims he
19:46
made. He said Russia is gaining territory in what he insisted
19:49
was a defensive operation in Ukraine. He thanked members of
19:54
the armed forces fighting in Ukraine and their families at
19:57
home, but he didn't mention what it might tape for Russia to end
20:01
its military action in Ukraine. And nor did he touch on what's
20:04
been happening to his political rivals like the opposition
20:07
leader Alexei Navalny, while part of me and Putin had this
20:10
message for Western countries supporting Ukraine's military
20:14
as a separate afternoon, they are talking about sending NATO
20:19
military contingents to Ukraine. But we can recall what happened
20:25
to those who used to send their contingents to our country, the
20:29
consequences for these potential intruders will be much more
20:34
tragic now.
20:42
They need to finally understand that we too, have weapons and
20:47
they know that I have just mentioned we to have weapons
20:50
that can strike targets on their territory, and everything that
20:54
they're thinking of now everything that they used to
20:58
threaten us on the world. That's all this is a real threat of
21:06
nuclear weapons being used which spell destruction of
21:09
civilization.
21:11
Adam Curry: Happy Times happy times blood. Why isn't he dead
21:15
from cancer? Why isn't he dead from partners, other
21:19
John C Dvorak: ailments? Whatever else he had, supposedly
21:22
had, yeah. So then maybe as I know there are body doubles of
21:27
him because they've been seen in the wild. Yeah.
21:30
Adam Curry: So then there was Alexina volleys funeral in
21:33
Moscow, which was attended by 1000s of people. Deutsche Vela
21:37
had France 24 headed, but CNN Oh no,
21:41
Unknown: we were supposed to have CNN is Matthew Chance at
21:43
the site of new volunteers funeral service. However, his
21:48
signal appears to be blocked. Oh no. CNN CHIEF INTERNATIONAL
21:52
CORRESPONDENT Clarissa Ward is joining us now from London.
21:56
Clarissa we were able to have Matthew talk with us a little
21:59
bit earlier on in the show show us some of those crowds outside
22:04
the funeral. I mean, the world is watching. What are you
22:08
watching today?
22:08
Adam Curry: Yes. What are you watching?
22:10
Unknown: Well, at the moment, we're not able to watch the
22:12
worry much because as you say it appears that that live signal
22:16
has been jammed. Oh yeah. actuation facing the volleys
22:20
team.
22:21
Adam Curry: This is this is the new glitch. The signal is being
22:24
jammed, who
22:25
Unknown: had also been putting out a live signal from the
22:29
church.
22:29
Adam Curry: It was live streamed on Facebook today is as much
22:33
Unknown: about who is not there as who is there. Who is not
22:37
there is Alexei Navalny, his daughter, Dasha, his son, as a
22:42
HAR and his wife, Yulia and Ivana who has been speaking
22:47
publicly and boldly against President Putin, since her
22:51
husband was killed. She just addressed the European
22:54
Parliament. A few days ago, she met with President Biden, in San
22:58
Francisco while she was visiting her daughter, oh, last week, who
23:01
is a student at Stanford University. And she has
23:04
indicated that she is really going to take the mantle as it
23:08
were, as you know, a leading force in Russia's opposition,
23:13
but very telling that she is not there today. And of course, one
23:17
can only presume just how dangerous it would be for her to
23:20
even attempt to go back to Russia at this stage.
23:23
Adam Curry: This is so this whole report is just bullcrap.
23:27
There was no signal jamming you stuff doesn't work CNN, why
23:31
can't she go back? Is it? Is she on the hit list? Or did she ever
23:35
scheduling conflict? That makes no sense that she can't go back
23:40
for the funeral. I mean, they're not actually
23:44
John C Dvorak: this funeral. Such a big deal to any Americans
23:46
whatsoever. Because it's a body in the world was so involved not
23:51
only was a minor character. Yeah,
23:54
Adam Curry: but you don't understand media.
23:57
John C Dvorak: I understand media.
23:59
Adam Curry: There's the quote everybody. Well, that's it. It's
24:04
to make it all scary. Extra extra scary. Ah, yeah. Well, no
24:11
worries. Everybody is not going to be a nuclear war. But there
24:14
will be more cool stuff that we need to get into Ukraine. And
24:18
Schultz will buy. He will buy. He's got to
24:26
John C Dvorak: foregone conclusion. Well, I don't think
24:28
blowing up that bridge is going to be a good idea. Does that
24:30
kind of blow up the bridge? The channel, but that's what they
24:33
keep talking about? Well, they
24:35
Adam Curry: already tried that.
24:37
John C Dvorak: No, no. Yeah, that didn't work out either. But
24:40
Adam Curry: they're not sincere about it. That's what I mean.
24:42
It's like if they really wanted to blow up the bridge, it would
24:44
have blown up the bridge.
24:45
John C Dvorak: Well, you listen to the thing and you can
24:48
understand German and you yourself said that it was it was
24:51
Cavalier in the way it was done. And I'm thinking they're just
24:54
reading from a script for the purposes of getting it on tape.
24:57
Yeah, possibly. They can roll out the whole thing and make it
24:59
big fuss.
25:00
Adam Curry: It's amazing how much English words they use. I'm
25:03
always surprised by that when I go to the Netherlands, how much
25:06
English is infused into the language? You know, they're
25:08
talking about Qt, you know, like, and QA and quality
25:12
assurance and quality testing. Yeah, yeah. And I think even
25:17
said, but one of the I think even once it boots on the
25:19
ground, I mean, it's, it's ridiculous that you're listening
25:22
to our show. Oh, there you go. And the whole thing is
25:24
ridiculous. It's just the prop up the world. They need to get
25:27
Trump in real quick. Trump loves to buy military stuff. He
25:31
doesn't like war, which is good. Trump's even better. He gets all
25:34
the spending without the killing.
25:38
John C Dvorak: I mean, they she does he does, that's actually a
25:41
skill. Yeah,
25:42
Adam Curry: it's a benefit. I'm all on board with that. We'll
25:47
give everybody jobs, build up your arsenal, and stop killing,
25:51
that would be great.
25:55
John C Dvorak: too, so I collected some clips from and
25:58
the reason for a couple of reasons that Tucker was on Lex
26:01
Friedman, talking about Russia and as a Russia stuff is
26:05
Adam Curry: it's very interesting that you that you
26:07
clip this, I'm surprised it's interesting
26:10
John C Dvorak: to meet you. But the clips I have are not what
26:11
you'd expect, okay. They're mostly screwball clips. But the
26:15
thing is, when
26:16
Adam Curry: we talk about wizman first for a second, where he
26:19
comes from, why is he all of a sudden, the guy
26:22
John C Dvorak: I wanted to before you'd say that? I want to
26:24
say you said I believe it was about Lex Freeman some months
26:28
back, that he would be he was moving in on the hegemony of Joe
26:34
Rogan's long form, interview style. Yes. And that was who you
26:39
were talking about, right? Lex Friedman? Yes, correct. Well,
26:43
I've never seen him before. Well, he just somehow he
26:46
Adam Curry: just appeared on. I looked it up because he suddenly
26:49
just appeared on the scene in 2018. Right,
26:52
John C Dvorak: doing long form interviews with extremely high
26:56
profile people. Yes. Which is not something you can just do
27:01
well,
27:01
Adam Curry: here. Here's what gave him his rise to prominence.
27:06
He co authored a non peer reviewed study, which concluded
27:11
that drivers he was he worked at MIT and the autonomous driving
27:16
department. The study non peer reviewed study that concluded
27:19
that drivers remained focused while using Tesla's semi
27:24
autonomous system. And then he got boosted by Elon Musk. So I
27:31
think that's how he rose to prominence is Elon started
27:35
boosting him? Which is in itself interesting. And then all of a
27:41
sudden he's getting it. He's Joe Rogan was on his show, Joe Rogan
27:45
brought him like a $10,000 watch as a gift, which I found
27:49
interesting. But yes,
27:54
John C Dvorak: yeah, Joe July.
27:56
Adam Curry: I don't know. I don't know. I mean, I'm, I don't
28:00
know if it was $10,000. But it looked like a pretty expensive
28:03
watch. And I thought that was odd. That that's very odd at the
28:08
time with
28:09
John C Dvorak: a guy, okay, a couple of things. And so far is
28:12
competing with Joe Rogan. He has no charisma at all.
28:17
Adam Curry: He has the corrosive charisma of a man and black. I
28:20
mean, that's literally like from from The Matrix movie. That's
28:23
what he looks like. That's a charisma. He has nothing more,
28:25
nothing less.
28:26
John C Dvorak: He has a pile of papers that Deadwood that would
28:29
compete with Jen Sakis pile of papers when she was press
28:33
secretary. Yeah. That he goes through so the questions are
28:36
prepared, Rogen is used as the kind of I would say Rogan is
28:41
closer to Larry King in the way he does interviews. According to
28:45
Adam Curry: goat in the troll room. Joe and Lex had been
28:47
friends for close to a decade. Really? Okay, well, how
28:54
John C Dvorak: did they become friends?
28:55
Adam Curry: I don't know. By decade. That's a long time a
28:58
decade. Yeah,
29:00
John C Dvorak: consider ones from MIT and did studies on
29:02
autonomous driving the other guy's a Hollywood guy. Okay,
29:07
that's pretty obscure. Okay, well, whatever the case, so he
29:11
will keep an eye on him. Yeah. So there was some interesting
29:14
stuff that was in this interview with Tucker. And Tucker is an
29:19
easy guy, obviously an easy guy to interview because he's like a
29:22
woman. He can talk forever. Yes. So let's let's so I had a few
29:32
cute ones here that were I got four short clips that I thought
29:38
were interesting. And let's start with we can even skip the
29:42
num all new one if you want. Whatever you want. It's up to
29:45
you. Let's go with Jed Tucker on on lawyers. This was
29:48
interesting.
29:50
Unknown: My lawyers before I left and these are people work
29:53
for a big law firm. This is not Bob's law firm. This is one of
29:55
the biggest law firms in the world. My lawyer Bob is insulted
29:58
Tucker said you're gonna get arrested if You do this by the
30:01
US government on sanctions violations? And I said, why? You
30:04
know, I don't I don't recognize the legitimacy of that,
30:07
actually, because I'm American. And I've lived here my whole
30:09
life. And that's so outrageous that I'm happy to face that,
30:12
that risk, because I shall reject the premise. Okay, I'm an
30:17
American, I shall talk to anyone I want to and I plan to exercise
30:19
that freedom, which I think I was born with. I gave him this
30:22
long, long lecture. They're like, what does lawyers but that
30:26
was, um, it was of me put it this way. I don't know how much
30:30
you dealt with lawyers. But it costs many 1000s of dollars to
30:33
get a conclusion like that. Like they sent a whole bunch of their
30:37
summer associates or whatever they said, they put a lot of
30:39
people on this question, checked a lot of precedent. And I think
30:43
and they sent me a 10 page memo on it. And their sincere
30:45
conclusion was, do not do this. And of course, it made me mad.
30:49
So I was lecturing on the phone. And I had another call with the
30:51
head lawyer, and he said, Look, a lot will depend on the
30:55
questions that you ask Putin. If you're seen as too nice to him,
30:59
you could get arrested when you come back. And I was like,
31:02
you're describing a fascist country. Okay. You're saying
31:05
that the US government will arrest me if I don't ask the
31:07
questions they want to ask is, that's what you're saying? Well,
31:10
we just think, based on what's happened, that that's possible.
31:12
And so I'm just telling you what happened. So
31:14
you were okay, being arrested in Moscow? That was arrested? And
31:18
I didn't think that for a second. I mean, maybe look, I
31:21
don't speak Russian, I'd never been there before. Everything
31:25
about the culture was brand new to me. You know, ignorance does
31:29
protect you sort of when you have no freaking idea what's
31:33
going on, you're not worried about it like this happen to me
31:35
many times. There's a principle there that extends throughout
31:38
life. So it's completely possible that I was in grave
31:41
peril and didn't know it. Because, like, how would I know
31:43
it? You know, I'm like a bumbling English speaker from
31:46
California.
31:48
Adam Curry: That's interesting. He's never been to Russia. I
31:51
John C Dvorak: thought it was a lot that was interesting in that
31:53
but yet you there's a guy. I know. I felt
31:57
Adam Curry: the same. And I've been to Russia. You've been?
31:59
You've been to Russia. We're kind
32:00
John C Dvorak: of Russia before the fall of communism. Jews
32:03
Adam Curry: were like semi? Yes, I was there an 8889. We're semi
32:08
worldly guys. But we're no Tucker Carlson.
32:12
John C Dvorak: I'm always surprised by guys like Tucker
32:14
Carlson at that pinnacle that he sits on, has done things like
32:21
never been to Russia. It seems like if you're going to be
32:24
Tucker Carlson, you have been to Russia more than one you would
32:27
think so. Yeah. So this was his first trip. So he was
32:31
flabbergasted when he went, so he never got to see what you got
32:34
to see. I got to see. For example, before the fall of
32:37
communism, the GM store the G um, department store, which was
32:43
this giant monstrosity of a the world's supposedly the world's
32:48
first department store that had absolutely nothing for sale. My
32:52
Adam Curry: favorite was when we did the Moscow music Peace
32:54
Festival. We had this huge 15 Camera truck from Cinna video in
33:00
Holland who drove there and and before everything went up to the
33:05
to the uplink the satellite uplink, it went into this gray
33:09
bus with curtains, which literally had the size of a
33:13
Volkswagen bus. And that supposedly was the KGB, who were
33:16
there monitoring the signal. It was hilarious. I was picking up
33:19
the phone I had a 212 area code dial tone from the Westwood one
33:24
truck. And these guys were sitting in this little VW bus
33:28
gray with drawn curtains. It was nothing it was it was it was
33:32
shambles. shambles, I tell you, and the only thing that was
33:36
really cool was the Moscow Hells Angels that we met at three in
33:39
the morning. Wow. Yeah. Who apparently could just roam
33:44
around and do whatever they wanted. I
33:46
John C Dvorak: should write a book about that. The you should
33:49
and I think the we have a publisher gave you publishing.
33:53
Adam Curry: Do you have a ghost writer though as the questions
33:55
you have. You can write I can't write I've tried this so many
33:59
times. I fail. I fail at writing I'm a I'm a I'm a verbal
34:04
communicator
34:07
John C Dvorak: mean is pitching me but not plugging the Aigues
34:09
book
34:09
Adam Curry: I told him to I told her to she called me
34:15
John C Dvorak: to the website get a free PDF just limit up we
34:18
have by the way. We have no agenda finally you think that
34:22
took forever? The vinegar book?
34:25
Adam Curry: We're waiting for that. Yeah. Where's the what do
34:27
we have no agenda what? The
34:29
John C Dvorak: no agenda primer the ABCs book that Jay worked on
34:32
when she was in high school.
34:34
Adam Curry: That's a book.
34:36
John C Dvorak: Don't you remember
34:37
Adam Curry: is it done? is so long ago has isn't isn't for
34:41
sale.
34:42
John C Dvorak: It's going to be she's going to the printer so
34:44
it'll be coming out. We have another website the gate view
34:47
publishing.com which will have that oh, this is the idea for
34:51
that but you know you want to get to buy the book now. Kids
34:53
book. We don't know how to price it. Ask Adam she says she wants
34:57
to price it for $30 No. 30 Henry version 33 cents I said no.
35:01
Adam Curry: Yes. 3333 it will sell like hotcakes.
35:07
John C Dvorak: The kids book, Hey,
35:09
Adam Curry: my friend Ross and Marielle they just had a kid,
35:12
too. This morning Roman is born, I will buy a $33.33 cent kid's
35:17
book for Roman.
35:21
John C Dvorak: Well, I was hoping to get some. Thanks.
35:25
Well,
35:25
Adam Curry: you wanted more? You want to charge more? No, I think
35:28
I think it's a great item. And oh, man, and we'll all sign it.
35:34
John C Dvorak: Okay. Well, for the for 3333. You better sign
35:38
Adam Curry: exit strategy, kids books, who would have thought?
35:43
John C Dvorak: So the other thing about the this this
35:45
particular piece was the idea that a top law firm would tell
35:51
you not to go to Russia to interview Putin as a journalist.
35:54
Well, I have speakers might get arrested when you come back.
35:58
What kind of lawyers are
36:00
Adam Curry: now this so there's something else there's something
36:02
going on here with a prominent person in Fredericksburg, I'm
36:05
not going to mention it. But that but the Department of
36:08
Justice is going after this person to an incredible degree.
36:12
I talked to this person regularly. And we already know
36:16
who it is. And it's trumped up No, we haven't discussed it on
36:18
the show. And you know why? And it's quote unquote, trumped up
36:21
charges. That should give you a clue. And the lawyers is these.
36:27
It's unbelievable to me what they're doing. I'm like, dude,
36:30
they're just making up work here. And that just scaring you
36:34
into stuff. You have nothing to fear. They just scaring this
36:38
person into, oh, well, they could this could happen or that
36:41
can happen. And like, what? It's It's incredible how bad in
36:47
general, the legal profession has become. And it's millions of
36:53
dollars. Millions.
36:55
John C Dvorak: This is just a gouge class it. Yes.
36:58
Adam Curry: Yes. And I bet you that Tucker said 1000s and
37:01
1000s. I bet he paid $100,000 for that 10 Page opinion.
37:07
Because it wasn't it wasn't Bob's law firm. By the way. Bob
37:10
is our lawyer. He I met him in Fredericksburg. Robert, our
37:14
constitutional lawyer. That's Bob's lawyer. He's a great guy
37:16
costs zero.
37:20
John C Dvorak: That's why he's Bob. Yeah.
37:22
Adam Curry: You're right. Good point.
37:25
John C Dvorak: All right. So anyway, so I found that to be a
37:27
distressing, yes. That was distressing. But more
37:30
distressing is this clip. This is him on Snowden.
37:34
Unknown: But then there's another fact, which is that I
37:37
was being surveilled by the US government intensely surveilled
37:40
by the US government. And this came out they admitted it, the
37:42
NSA admitted it a couple of years ago that they were up in
37:45
my signal account. And then they leaked it to the New Yorker. So
37:47
they did that again, before I left. And I know that because
37:51
two New York Times reporters, one of whom I actually like a
37:53
lot, said, Oh, you're going and called other people. Oh, he's
37:57
going in if you put I'm told anybody that like anybody, my
38:00
wife, to producers, that's it. So they got that from the
38:04
government. Then I'm over there. And of course, I want to see
38:06
Snowden, who I admire. And so I have we have a mutual friend. So
38:12
I got his texts and come on over and Snowden does not want
38:15
publicity at all. And so but I really wanted have dinner with
38:18
them. So we had dinner in my hotel room at the Four Seasons
38:22
in Moscow and for
38:26
Adam Curry: a second. How can the Four Seasons be operating in
38:30
Moscow? Is that not a violation of all sanctions? Sounds like it
38:36
everybody had to close McDonald's Burger King. But yet,
38:42
four seasons is operational. The Four Seasons
38:45
Unknown: in Moscow and I tried to convince him I'd love to do
38:49
an interview shoot on my iPhone. You know, I'd love to take a
38:53
picture together and put it on the internet because I just want
38:55
to show support because I think he's been railroaded. He had no
38:59
interest in living in Russia, no intention of being in Russia.
39:02
The whole thing is alive anyway, whatever. All this stuff and he
39:05
just said respectfully I'd rather not anyone know that we
39:08
met. Great. The only reason I'm telling you that
39:11
Adam Curry: wait a minute, why is Tucker saying it now?
39:13
John C Dvorak: He explains it. Oh, I'm sorry.
39:15
Unknown: I'd rather not anyone know that we met. Great. The
39:18
only reason I'm telling you this is because and I didn't tell
39:22
anybody and I didn't text it to anybody. Okay, except him.
39:27
semaphore semaphore runs this piece saying, report reporting
39:36
information that got from the US Intel agencies leaking against
39:39
me using my money in my name in a supposedly free country. They
39:43
run this piece saying I'd met with Snowden like it was a crime
39:47
or something. So again, what my interest is in the United States
39:51
and preserving freedoms here, the ones that I grew up with,
39:53
and if you have a media establishment that acts as an
39:56
auxilary of or acts as employees of the national security state
40:01
you don't have a free country.
40:03
Adam Curry: Oh, oh, hello, wake up call for Tucker Carlson. Wow,
40:08
Tucker, do not know that everything is recorded and all
40:12
they have to do is just retrieve it when they want to. He doesn't
40:16
mention you know, the the amendment that removes the
40:21
warrant requirement for a FISA request. Oh my god, someone
40:26
educate Tucker?
40:28
John C Dvorak: Well, I think he knows what he says later that he
40:31
he's already talked to the Intel people about the Fed that
40:34
everything signal all these crazy systems that you can, you
40:38
know, suppose they are secure, aren't secure, they got by
40:42
backdoors. And everything's being recorded. And he kind of
40:45
knows that. So I think he did the story. So he could slam by n
40:50
Smith and semaphore, which is a really dubious news operation,
40:55
which is out there.
40:56
Adam Curry: By the way, what you're saying about signals is,
40:59
is quite an accusation. Because, you know, they're Whoa, they're
41:02
big nonprofit. And they're very, very, very adamant about how
41:08
secure their system is. And with that, I'd like to, I'd like to
41:11
mention everybody, if you're using proton mail, for some
41:15
reason, and I'm not against it, proton mail has decided to send
41:19
everything to me encrypted, which is great. So I guess if
41:23
you've had an email conversation with me, my you know, I have my
41:29
encryption, public key in my signature file. protonmail
41:33
automatically encrypts your email to me, which is new. The
41:37
problem is if you don't include your public key, I can't reply
41:40
to you securely but that's a new thing. I'd found that very
41:46
interesting. has happened started happening the beginning
41:48
of this week.
41:50
John C Dvorak: Ah, yeah. Interesting. So anyway, he goes
41:56
on about this. This meeting he had with snow and that's what
41:59
happened and he was blown out
42:02
Adam Curry: Yeah, well, of course, of course semaphore with
42:04
anything that Scott Professor Scott Galloway likes reading
42:08
it's got to be compromised. Key and Karish wish I was Oh
42:11
semaphore OHS? I love reading semaphore. But of course, it's
42:15
run by your intel agencies. We got it.
42:18
John C Dvorak: I don't think is that good? No, that's
42:21
Adam Curry: why they read it. They're not informed. Hello.
42:25
Okay, so Tara and Scott man
42:31
John C Dvorak: doing I don't get it. So here he is talking about
42:40
this is kind of funny, because, you know, he's, like I said,
42:43
he's a chatterbox. So he can go on and on. And he does a good
42:45
self effacing thing here, which is, it doesn't so casually. He's
42:49
really, he's got over time, I've actually come to admire Tucker,
42:54
even though he's, like you said, I think he's like foolish crap
42:58
about a lot of stuff. And, you know, like you said, I'm a gas
43:02
Oh, Guy gambling. And so, here he is with Putin on Putin, who
43:10
was a little, a little bit on here. And he goes on about this
43:13
a lot more, and I'll explain what he said. on
43:16
Unknown: certain topics, know what it would mean to ask a
43:18
tough question, clarifying questions, I suppose they would,
43:22
I guess I just wanted him to talk. You know, I just wanted to
43:25
hear his perspective. Again, I've probably asked more asshole
43:29
questions. And like any living American, you know, I'm as, as
43:33
has been noted correctly, I'm a dick, by my nature. And so I
43:38
don't I just feel at this stage in my life, I didn't need to
43:41
prove that I can answer the question. Sure. You know, I
43:45
think if I had been, you know, 34, instead of 54, I definitely
43:50
would have done that. Because I would have thought this is
43:51
really about me, and I need to prove myself. No, I just there's
43:55
a war going on. That is wrecking the US economy in a way and at a
44:00
scale people do not understand the US dollar is going away.
44:04
That was, of course inevitable, ultimately, because everything
44:06
dies, including currencies. But that death, that process of
44:11
death has been accelerated exponentially by the behavior of
44:14
the Biden administration in the US Congress, particularly the
44:16
sanctions and people's donors to what the ramifications of that
44:20
are the ramifications for poverty in the United States.
44:23
John C Dvorak: Hmm. It goes into a long diatribe, which I should
44:27
have clipped about the sanctions and how it's driving Russia to
44:32
China and also its bolstering the BRICS
44:36
Adam Curry: it I think that's that's a fair statement. And
44:40
John C Dvorak: BRICS, which now have like about 25 other
44:43
countries that want to join. Yeah, they're they don't have
44:48
the combined GDP of the United States in Europe, but with
44:54
China, and its GDP, and then all these little countries. This
45:00
Dining to put their their eggs in one basket and then create
45:04
their own currency is a huge threat. Yes.
45:07
Adam Curry: Well, Saudi Arabia is. So the Saudis are in there
45:11
in the bricks now,
45:12
John C Dvorak: all these people and it's and he really thinks
45:16
this is a major concern. Now, typically we've always worm our
45:21
way out of these situations the United States does because we're
45:25
smarter in terms of the finances and entrepreneurship, a lot of
45:29
things. Okay, our use of the way we use capitalism is a little
45:33
more aggressive than others. We've
45:35
Adam Curry: We've hoodwinked our people into just letting the
45:38
wheat rant
45:40
John C Dvorak: over again, and we won't we haven't stopped yet.
45:43
Adam Curry: No, it's grabbing the hoodwink is great.
45:45
Everyone's like boy Oh, dollar. But I think the mistake was
45:49
kicking Russia off of Swift. And if if if they do what this this
45:54
nutjob Kasparov says, if they steal the $300 billion, that
45:59
will that will be a tipping point for the US dollar system.
46:02
That
46:02
John C Dvorak: would be big, but it hasn't happened yet. I'm I'm
46:05
on the side that it shouldn't happen. It won't happen.
46:07
Adam Curry: I agree. You're no I agree with you. I think they're
46:10
gonna do it.
46:11
John C Dvorak: That I don't think they're going to do it.
46:13
Okay. If they do it there, this is a grave error. Yes. And
46:18
Adam Curry: no, I agree with you. That's a grave error. But I
46:20
just think that that's stupid, or arrogant,
46:23
John C Dvorak: or maybe they're doing it arrogance is the right
46:26
word, hubris. There's a lot of arrogance, especially in this
46:29
particular administration of relative dummies. Yes, they're
46:36
dumb. They're a dumb, dumb, dumb administration. They're just a
46:42
press secretary, John Pierre is a perfect example. She just
46:45
seems stupid. She's
46:46
Adam Curry: a troll. She's she's a she's a literal troll troll,
46:50
too, in her journey, her job and you know, I have a trolls, the
46:54
trolls troll, because they're just projecting their rejection,
46:58
you know, their own rejection. In life, the rejections they've
47:02
received, they're projecting that and that is what she's
47:04
doing. And she's good at it. She trolls, the media and people
47:09
every single you really think she's stupid. She is trolling.
47:14
John C Dvorak: I've seen her on. I remember seeing her on MSNBC.
47:18
years before she became depressed secretary and she is
47:21
genuinely stupid.
47:23
Adam Curry: Okay. Well, not all Trump, not all trolls. They
47:26
wouldn't live under bridges if they were smart. I mean, be
47:28
honest about yeah, there's
47:29
John C Dvorak: other things to do with your life. So the last
47:32
clip is a little bit about Nirvani. And it's not I don't
47:35
think it kind of plays in earlier clues. But it's just not
47:38
that is interesting. Is the Lawyer just open the Snowden
47:41
clip.
47:42
Unknown: It's just a minute, we can listen to it. But do we know
47:44
how we died? Short answer? No, we don't. Now, if I had to guess
47:49
I would say killing Ivani. During the Munich Security
47:53
Conference, in the middle of the debate over $60 billion in
47:57
Ukraine funding. Maybe the Russians are dumb. I didn't get
48:00
that vibe at all. You know, I just don't I don't see it. But
48:02
maybe, you know, maybe they killed him. I mean, they
48:04
certainly put him in prison, which I'm against. But here's
48:08
what I do know, is that we don't know. And so when Chuck Schumer
48:10
stands up, he
48:12
Adam Curry: said, Here's what I do know, do know that we don't
48:15
know what does he say? Certainly
48:16
Unknown: put him in prison, which I'm against. But here's
48:19
what I do know is that we don't know. And so when Chuck Schumer
48:22
stands up and Joe Biden reads some card in front of him with
48:26
lines about Nuvali. It's like, I'm allowed to laugh at that,
48:29
because it's absurd. You don't know.
48:31
I mean, there's a lot of interesting ideas about if he
48:34
was killed who killed him? Yeah, because it could be Putin. It
48:38
could be somebody in Russia who is not Putin. It could be
48:42
Ukrainians, because it would benefit the war
48:45
surgeons daughter in Moscow. So yeah, that's possible. And
48:49
it could be Pfizer in the United States could also be involved. I
48:53
don't
48:53
think we kill people in other countries to affect election
48:55
outcomes. Oh, wait, no, we do it a lot.
48:59
Adam Curry: Pfizer killed him.
49:00
John C Dvorak: We all know this. They never mentioned Pfizer?
49:03
Adam Curry: Of course not. Of course not. That's because the
49:05
control. The blood clots
49:07
John C Dvorak: are caused by any of the vaccines. I mean, even
49:10
j&j, we had that issue and AstraZeneca. For sure.
49:14
Adam Curry: While we're on the military industrial complex,
49:16
Defense Secretary Austin, if it's really defense secretary
49:20
Austin. Hey, I
49:21
John C Dvorak: still haven't seen him standing. That's my
49:25
kid. Look, I'm looking at waiting to see him stand because
49:27
he's a big tall guy. Although I think you could have had the leg
49:30
up or at you know, that leg up or she was stretchered. Sure.
49:33
ABS Yeah. He's
49:34
Adam Curry: been in hospital long enough for them to stretch
49:36
him out. Yeah, absolutely. Absolutely. Here's NBC
49:39
Unknown: News reports since Secretary Lloyd Austin in the
49:41
hot seat today, it was a failure of leadership House Republicans
49:46
grilling Austin for not telling the White House he was diagnosed
49:49
with prostate cancer underwent surgery for it and weeks later
49:53
was hospitalized with serious complications.
49:55
I found it very concerning that sick Terry could be hostile
49:59
hospital Cost of three days without anyone else in the
50:03
administration even noticing either the
50:06
President is that aloof or you are irrelevant. Which one is it?
50:13
Mr. Secretary? It's the either
50:15
Democrats or forgiving. You want to know what accountability is
50:19
accountability is having to come and sit in front of people and
50:22
their outrage and their drama. Terry, emphasizing that someone
50:26
was always in control. There
50:28
was never a lapse, and authorities or command and
50:31
control,
50:32
but acknowledging a breakdown in the notification process.
50:35
We did not handle this right. And I did not handle it right.
50:38
Although Austin
50:39
took responsibility. He also said he assumed his staff would
50:43
manage it.
50:44
I never directed anyone to keep my hospitalization from the
50:47
White House. On Monday,
50:48
the Pentagon releasing a summary of a classified review that
50:51
blamed a lack of notification in part on a lack of written
50:55
guidance, but also on staff not wanting to pry into Austin's
50:59
health, the review recommending new procedures, if any
51:02
American worker did what you did, they would be fired. No.
51:06
And
51:07
the question still remains, why did it take the Pentagon three
51:10
days to tell President Biden his defense secretary was in
51:14
intensive care.
51:15
Adam Curry: It's unbelievable that they do news about this,
51:18
who cares? It's a show the whole thing is a show, and it's a bad
51:23
show. No,
51:24
John C Dvorak: I disagree. 100% with this 100% 100% I
51:29
Adam Curry: think it's a good show.
51:30
John C Dvorak: I disagree with you. 95.5%. You
51:32
Adam Curry: think it's a good show?
51:34
John C Dvorak: I think they know he's dead. And they're just
51:40
trying to humiliate the administration by bringing this
51:44
out and asking him stupid questions that they know the
51:48
answer to well, let's
51:49
Adam Curry: see what ABC did with this. With this show.
51:51
Unknown: It was the first time the Defense Secretary appeared
51:54
before Congress after failing to alert the White House about his
51:58
prostate cancer surgery and his emergency hospitalization days
52:03
later.
52:03
I did not handle it right. As you know, I've apologized
52:07
including directly to the President. And I take full
52:10
responsibility. Austin
52:12
insisting there was no lapse in the chain of command, given that
52:15
his deputy took control. But Republican lawmakers showed
52:20
Austin no mercy,
52:21
someone needs to be held accountable. Congressman Jim
52:25
banks calling it an embarrassment
52:27
either the President is that aloof? There's the clip for you
52:31
are irrelevant. Which one is? Terry, do you read that the
52:36
President would go three days without knowing that his
52:38
Secretary of Defense is is not on the job? It's
52:41
the either the President is not aloof, Austin said.
52:46
Adam Curry: What's this aloof business?
52:48
John C Dvorak: Look up. Let me let me go. Let me know what
52:55
aloof means in the way they're using it is wrong. aloof, not
52:59
friendly or forthcoming, cool and distant? What does that got
53:03
to do with him knowing whether or not this defense secretary is
53:06
there?
53:07
Adam Curry: I think he said a goof. Is he a good boy?
53:12
Unknown: Oh, yeah, that would be it is not on the job.
53:15
It's the either. The President is not aloof. Austin
53:18
said he never told staff his absence was because of a
53:22
scheduled surgery or that he was later rushed back by ambulance
53:26
because of complications.
53:28
When did your staff find out you were at the hospital?
53:32
I don't know when
53:35
John C Dvorak: that the very beginning of that he lost his
53:39
Ed. Voice. Oh, it's a real voice. We
53:42
Adam Curry: go, man, this. I mean, did you feel worse than I
53:45
am with the moon landing on this thing? No. Here we go.
53:48
complications.
53:50
Unknown: When did your staff find out you were at the
53:51
hospital?
53:53
Adam Curry: Yeah. That was the real the actor. I
53:58
Unknown: don't know when. When you
54:00
don't know when you told you're getting better at the hospital.
54:04
Are you kidding me? But Democrats defended Austin
54:08
arguing Congress's focus needs to be passing a stalled military
54:13
aid PAC money for Ukraine.
54:15
John C Dvorak: I would challenge any member on the other side of
54:17
this aisle to claim that the Secretary of Defense, not fully
54:21
informing the president for three days is somehow more
54:24
important than walking away money, that obligation that we
54:28
need and that the whole world is watching us on
54:33
Adam Curry: the whole world watching us. No, that's the
54:38
military industrial complex watching you. It's
54:42
John C Dvorak: the CEOs of Boeing and Lockheed. Yes, yes,
54:47
they're watching you.
54:48
Adam Curry: Meanwhile, speaking of the President being aloof or
54:51
a goof Dr. Jen Yoshi is America's favorite doctor. For a
54:59
she Typically on ABC in the morning, she went, she stayed at
55:03
the studio a little longer. And she went to the view. And I
55:07
think I mean, we know the view is very scripted the view, it's
55:11
admitted that everything they say is scripted. There's very
55:15
little room for ad libbing and Dr. Jim came on with a message,
55:19
which was, I think, a message for the American people.
55:24
Unknown: I think in my medical opinion, first of all, how does
55:27
he compared to a 54 year old woman? I couldn't do that job.
55:30
Adam Curry: This is regarding his clean bill of health at
55:34
Walter Reed.
55:35
John C Dvorak: Biden's Biden's energy level because you know,
55:38
his sharpest attack. Yes, sharpest?
55:42
Unknown: I think in my medical opinion, first of all, how does
55:44
he compared to a 54 year old woman? I couldn't do that job.
55:47
Yeah, right. Being president, there were some glaring
55:51
omissions in that physical report. It was about seven
55:54
pages. We all got a copy of it. From the President's physician,
55:59
we do what's called a review of systems. Anytime we do a
56:02
physical exam on someone that includes not only just general
56:06
neurologic evaluation, but a mental evaluation, a screening
56:10
for depression or psychiatric illness, mental illness,
56:14
anxiety, not in their cognitive exam, not in their genital
56:19
urinary exam, prostate exam, not in there. We can all
56:24
check on him. It was
56:28
it was comprehensive, in his doctor's opinion. Yeah. But what
56:33
was released to the public, if you're a health care
56:37
professional, you know, what things have not been in there?
56:41
You know, so again, maybe they were done but not released? I
56:44
would like to think that they were probably done but not
56:48
released. Yeah.
56:50
The question is, can they do the job and it looks like he can. I
56:53
am not his physician. But you know, again, I he does have a
56:57
qualified physician. And it was a thorough report. But
57:00
something's missing.
57:01
Adam Curry: Come on. This is signaling that the guys have
57:04
dead. Doctors, America's favorite doctor saying, you
57:08
know, well, you know, I didn't see a review of systems. That's
57:14
a message. The view is a messaging system.
57:18
John C Dvorak: That's a good catch on that clip. It's, it's
57:20
concerning. very concerning. Well, everybody knows what's
57:24
going on. It's not like a big shock to anybody that Biden's
57:28
got one foot in the grave.
57:30
Adam Curry: I loved it. Man. I didn't forget to clip that. I
57:33
love where he was. He had phony Maloney sitting at the
57:36
fireplace, Maloney of Italy, and he's talking about dropping aid
57:41
to Gaza. And then all of a sudden he starts yapping about
57:43
Ukraine. And she's the funniest. She's like looking at her paper
57:47
like what was he talking about? And she's looking at him like,
57:49
what's wrong with you, man? You're talking about Ukraine all
57:52
of a sudden. That was crazy.
57:56
John C Dvorak: Here play this is my last Ukraine. This is true
58:00
though.
58:03
Adam Curry: This clip has been sent to us several times and I
58:05
for some reason neither of us clipped it until now.
58:08
Unknown: We know that Russia must win this war. That's a
58:11
story that Ukraine must win this war against Russia.
58:15
Adam Curry: Oh poor guy can't catch a break.
58:19
John C Dvorak: He doesn't deserve a break that guy can't
58:21
catch a break man. Let's see.
58:27
Adam Curry: Where do you want to go next? I mean there's there's
58:29
a lot of stuff happening and that people are supposed to be
58:32
John C Dvorak: very upset about oh, I have a series of clips now
58:36
okay, which show you that the phony baloney This is a four
58:41
clips and they're not long. But this is a boat shows you the
58:46
phony baloney nature of PBS News hours. debate between Brooks and
58:51
Capehart. How goodness you know, kind of fight. This has fight to
58:55
be in agreement with each other. The only ratings
58:58
Adam Curry: this show has is our show.
59:00
John C Dvorak: Yeah. Okay, that to be true, yes.
59:04
Adam Curry: Okay, so this is the so called public broadcast
59:07
systems in America with a so called count point counterpoint.
59:12
Right left red blue discussion.
59:17
John C Dvorak: So let's start with Capehart. On immigration
59:20
flub one
59:21
Unknown: president of the sitting President of the United
59:23
States, in conjunction with the Senate Majority Leader, Chuck
59:28
Schumer, Chuck Schumer, along with one of the most
59:30
conservative members of the Senate. Oh my gosh, I can't
59:34
believe I'm spacing on his Langford, senator from Oklahoma,
59:39
but they sat down and hammered out a deal after the President
59:43
went before the nation and said everything is on the table. I'm
59:47
willing to negotiate. They negotiated they came up with a
59:50
bill that bits and pieces of it were leaking out that was so bad
59:55
from the President's base perspective that they were
59:58
raising hell about if this becomes law, this is going to
1:00:01
set immigration policy back for a long time. But the President's
1:00:05
thought we need to do something. They come up with the bill. And
1:00:09
what happened, Donald Trump made a phone call, or put out some
1:00:14
social media posts to it.
1:00:16
Adam Curry: I love I love this, this this meme that even
1:00:20
everyone is repeating it. Donald Trump stopped this bill full.
1:00:25
How does Donald Trump control everything
1:00:29
John C Dvorak: then why he made a phone call,
1:00:32
he made a push. But here's, here's what you really heard it.
1:00:35
Adam Curry: He made he made a perfect phone call.
1:00:39
John C Dvorak: So here's what you heard in this clip, I get
1:00:41
the joke. Okay. He hears what you heard in this clip, he
1:00:45
couldn't remember Lankford his name, and it shook him.
1:00:49
Adam Curry: Because he's an operative, and he should have
1:00:51
known better. He's
1:00:52
John C Dvorak: an operative and he should know better. And he's
1:00:54
in he thinks of himself as slick. Okay, and so when he so
1:00:58
now it starts to, and now it's eating at him, and you're gonna
1:01:02
hear some glow coming up. It's
1:01:05
Adam Curry: gonna fall apart here. Right? Because you're
1:01:07
John C Dvorak: going with clip two Republicans
1:01:10
Unknown: refused to take yes for an answer. And gave the
1:01:15
president gave President Biden the perfect thing to go before
1:01:18
the nation and say, I'm trying. I was part of this deal. They I
1:01:24
gave them basically everything they wanted. And they still
1:01:26
said, No, those people are not serious. And I think if he
1:01:30
hammers that message, time and time again, I think I think it
1:01:34
will break through.
1:01:36
John C Dvorak: Oh, they didn't give anything that the
1:01:38
Republicans wanted. That bills a piece of crap. And it didn't
1:01:41
address the pretty much anything. It
1:01:44
Adam Curry: was not the one that Chuck Schumer voted no on. Yes.
1:01:47
When Chuck Schumer wrote and voted no on. But if Chuck
1:01:51
Schumer had voted yes, it would have passed. No, you
1:01:55
John C Dvorak: it doesn't make any difference who actually yes,
1:01:57
it would have passed, it would have passed because it was 49 to
1:02:00
50, which is
1:02:01
Adam Curry: my understanding that Schumer that in order to
1:02:05
bring a bill up again, he had to vote no, someone, someone that's
1:02:09
the
1:02:09
John C Dvorak: thesis, I've heard it a million times. But
1:02:12
when is it going to be brought up? When does that ever happen
1:02:14
to they bring the failed bill up again? Well, that is a nonsense
1:02:18
thesis. And why did Elizabeth rewarmed vote? No, because she
1:02:22
could have voted yes. Well, she's all his huge voting
1:02:26
stooge.
1:02:28
Adam Curry: He's just stooge who hurt Americans with these bogus
1:02:32
over the counter hearing aids spared for you? I hate her for
1:02:36
that. I really? I mean, of course, I pray for her man, but
1:02:40
men should call back. She's bad. Yes. All right, we
1:02:46
John C Dvorak: move on to clip three, do the thing which
1:02:48
Unknown: I think the British have done, which is to say,
1:02:51
we're going to stop the asylum process until we can digest all
1:02:54
the people who have already in the system. And that will at
1:02:57
least try to impose some order, because if there's just chaos,
1:03:00
it's gonna be just bad news
1:03:01
from him. But the only problem is it that'd be a great thing to
1:03:05
do, David, but there's no money. One of the things about that
1:03:09
Senate Bill was that it was giving funding to allow the
1:03:12
Customs and Border Patrol to do the things you were just saying.
1:03:16
So the chaos will continue. Not because the President isn't
1:03:20
doing enough, but because but because the Senate can't pass a
1:03:24
bill that would make it possible for the President to do what he
1:03:27
wants to do, but also for Republicans to get done. What
1:03:31
they say needs to be needs to be done for years now.
1:03:36
John C Dvorak: Okay, so he's losing it. drained out by the
1:03:41
moderator now, that what, what Brooks mentioned, which was Stop
1:03:46
it, and let's just process the people we've got before we keep
1:03:49
letting you know, 10s of 1000s more people in this guy had no
1:03:53
answer for that. And now here it comes. Here comes that what's
1:03:57
really going on on this pro on PBS, with this guy in
1:04:02
particular?
1:04:03
Unknown: Well, let me ask you this, because the President is
1:04:05
weighing some executive action apps and congressional action
1:04:08
that would allow him to tighten asylum rules. So if there is a
1:04:12
problem, and both sides say that there is a problem at the
1:04:14
southern border, and he has the authority to tighten the asylum
1:04:17
rules, why not do it? What's he waiting for?
1:04:19
I mean, I wonder, does he really have does he really have the
1:04:22
power? Why I wonder if the White House and you should ask me that
1:04:26
question beforehand, so I could have made some calls might have
1:04:29
to see what they're doing.
1:04:31
Adam Curry: Wow, I need to call the White House get my talking
1:04:34
points.
1:04:35
John C Dvorak: Wow, believe what he just said. Yes. I
1:04:38
Adam Curry: think this just credits any more clips from them
1:04:41
ever again on the show.
1:04:43
John C Dvorak: I'll tell you this. After that, he realized
1:04:46
what he said I don't have any more clips because it would have
1:04:48
gotten tedious. But he realized what he just did. He said that I
1:04:54
need I talked to the why not much of an analyst really I have
1:04:59
to let The White House telling me what to say or share it. I
1:05:02
Adam Curry: told me that later earlier I should have known
1:05:04
well, no man
1:05:06
John C Dvorak: can was upset after that. He was fumbling and
1:05:11
mumbling he knew what he did. He couldn't take it back. No, it
1:05:17
was an humiliation. And that whole segment your you know,
1:05:21
basically, right, this segment is a humiliation, it is not news
1:05:26
and analysis is what does the White House telling me to say?
1:05:29
Let me say it, what good is that we can just listen to the White
1:05:33
House for that. Well, here's
1:05:34
Adam Curry: what the White House said on February 29. There's a
1:05:37
screenshot in the show notes just to make sure in case they
1:05:40
decide to change it. February 29, the fact sheet impact of
1:05:44
bipartisan border agreement funding on border operations. So
1:05:50
this is about the bill and it says here, listen to this. The
1:05:54
bill also includes $1.4 billion for cities and states who are
1:06:01
providing critical services to newcomers and would expedite
1:06:06
work permits for people who are in the country and qualified
1:06:09
there it is newcomers. We didn't know if it will be called
1:06:13
visitors or the but they're just taking newcomers as illegal
1:06:20
immigrants. Newcomers newcomers there it is. And we were joking
1:06:26
about it just two weeks ago. Now they were joking about
1:06:30
John C Dvorak: how I have this sheet here this one did CPR news
1:06:34
a Denver talked about how they're going to we're making a
1:06:37
language style change that we hope will humanize people
1:06:40
arriving in Colorado from the border what what bordered in
1:06:44
Colorado that being shipped in Yes, for the past year and a
1:06:48
half Denver right in Colorado public radio had been following
1:06:51
the stories of people arriving from the border many of them
1:06:54
traveled through multiple countries, multiple risking
1:06:58
their lives and well being to get to the United States. We've
1:07:04
heard stories of news items on the radio, all these the word
1:07:07
migrant has been featured prominently as a bank blanket
1:07:10
term. And it goes on and says you stop using migrant Oh, what
1:07:15
Adam Curry: do we use now newcomer
1:07:18
John C Dvorak: new immigrants? No,
1:07:20
Adam Curry: I just call them new immigrants.
1:07:22
John C Dvorak: So they want to come new immigrants not not
1:07:25
migrants minus illegals
1:07:30
Adam Curry: but illegal aliens.
1:07:32
John C Dvorak: That was like a month ago. You have the new one
1:07:36
new comers, comers. Let's move to newcomers and hope that in
1:07:39
the style guide and use that
1:07:42
Adam Curry: newcomers it's one word. Newcomers one word. So
1:07:47
there was an interesting media moment Oh, surprise, as both
1:07:53
President Biden and former President Trump went to the
1:07:56
border on the same day, two different spots on the border of
1:08:00
course. And here's an OP from CBS two
1:08:02
Unknown: reports. The President and the former president who
1:08:05
wants to replace him in the White House played the blame
1:08:07
game today along the US Mexico border they
1:08:09
John C Dvorak: engaged as a Biden invasion over the past
1:08:12
three years.
1:08:13
Unknown: President Biden said it was Donald Trump who urged House
1:08:15
Republicans to kill the bill that would have beefed up
1:08:17
security at the border.
1:08:19
This time for the speakers and some of my Republican friends in
1:08:21
Congress for blocking this bill to show little spine
1:08:25
after a record number of illegal crossings last year, President
1:08:28
Biden who toured the border in Brownsville, Texas, he's trying
1:08:31
to show he's addressing an issue that more than 60% of voters
1:08:34
call a very serious concern. Just hours before the
1:08:38
President's arrival here in Brownsville US Border Patrol in
1:08:41
Texas State police say they stopped people on the other side
1:08:43
of the border from bringing across drugs. But Chris Cabrera
1:08:47
of the Border Patrol said that with the illegal crossings into
1:08:49
this part of Texas down recently, the President has come
1:08:52
too late. But I think the timing is a little off.
1:08:54
I mean, if you would have come a year ago, two years ago, three
1:08:57
years ago, Trump who visited Eagle Pass more than 300 miles
1:09:01
away continued exploiting a crisis that he couldn't solve
1:09:04
either hoping it'll put them back in the White House. Ally
1:09:07
say he's planning mass deportations and detention camps
1:09:10
if elected. Today, he sought to falsely connect President Biden
1:09:13
to the recent murder of a Georgia nursing student by a
1:09:15
Venezuelan migrant who entered the country illegally in 2022.
1:09:20
The
1:09:20
John C Dvorak: monster that charged charged in the death is
1:09:23
an illegal alien migrant who was let into our country and
1:09:26
released into our communities by crooked Joe Biden,
1:09:29
Unknown: the president who didn't address Trump's attacks,
1:09:32
said they should work together. Join
1:09:35
me for I'll join you in telling the Congress to pass this
1:09:39
bipartisan border security bill.
1:09:41
Adam Curry: This is very this is a very interesting strategy. And
1:09:44
I'm surprised by it. That that, you know whoever is running Joe
1:09:51
said, Okay, here's what you do call out to Trump and say join
1:09:54
me. Since you control the Republicans, Senate and
1:09:58
Congress. Join me Join me this day, the current Devora
1:10:03
Consulting Group, I do not think would have advised this. What do
1:10:06
you think? Seems like poor advice.
1:10:10
John C Dvorak: It's not good to put him in a week's position. I
1:10:14
agree. I definitely would not be advised. And somebody obviously
1:10:18
told him that is not something he dreamed.
1:10:22
Adam Curry: We know the guy doesn't she's barely functioning
1:10:25
this is you know, and you can
1:10:26
John C Dvorak: tell, but the key part character goes on about how
1:10:30
Trump called one guy or posted something. They don't know why
1:10:34
he did, but he's the one responsible somehow, it gives
1:10:38
them too much power. And you're not in California, but there's a
1:10:42
series of very interesting series of ads for the US. We
1:10:46
have a new US Senator, we need to vote in it's either going to
1:10:49
be Adam Schiff, or Steve Garvey, the baseball player. Oh,
1:10:54
Adam Curry: that is the baseball player, isn't it? I was like,
1:10:56
what this is a sports ball
1:10:58
John C Dvorak: guy. Yeah, sport. He's, I think it was first base
1:11:01
for the Dodgers. Anyway, he was a very machine like player is
1:11:06
very nobody liked him up here.
1:11:08
Adam Curry: Because he didn't play good sports ball. No,
1:11:11
because
1:11:11
John C Dvorak: he was a Dodger. Oh, okay. Gotcha. Schiff has
1:11:15
been doing these ads, where he's promoting Steve Garvey was
1:11:20
saying he's a dick. Oh, and Steve Garvey is no good for
1:11:23
California. He's terrible. We've got to stop Steve Garvey. And
1:11:28
Steve Garvey, who said that doesn't have half the budget of
1:11:31
shift.
1:11:34
Adam Curry: He's loving it. He's like, give me more give me more
1:11:36
attention.
1:11:37
John C Dvorak: He's getting a lot of attention he's getting
1:11:39
people are going, why should we stop and what is he done? It
1:11:42
means bringing the guy to the fore his numbers keep going up
1:11:46
with very little advertising. Because this idiot Schiff, Adam
1:11:50
Schiff, keeps promoting Steve Garvey in his advertising is
1:11:55
some of the dumbest it's the stupidest thing you can do. This
1:11:58
is like, why Trump doesn't want to keep talking about Nikki
1:12:02
Haley. Don't give us any more ammunition.
1:12:05
Adam Curry: Alright, let's talk about people who matter like Joy
1:12:08
read his joy read you know, she's moved to primetime. You
1:12:13
know, this is and this is her. Oh, she She's everywhere. She's
1:12:17
very important now to MSNBC. And I think again, I'm going back to
1:12:21
most theory, finding Willis is taking the fall for not being
1:12:25
able to stop you know, Trump legally in Georgia. And boy is
1:12:29
she is she taking the fall I mean, boy has gotta beaten her.
1:12:32
You got to feel bad for and Trump Of course he can't do it.
1:12:35
This is just pounding it all.
1:12:37
John C Dvorak: Here's a woman way This is funny. Phony Willis,
1:12:41
who came out and ran on the proposition that it will be no
1:12:45
no saying there will be no she went on and on about it. No.
1:12:51
Adam Curry: Yeah. Brett
1:12:52
John C Dvorak: noising at the office now that's out. Yeah, I
1:12:55
know. I know. So you can't feel sorry for this I is ironic. The
1:13:01
other one that Leticia James is getting it. And then now we have
1:13:04
a third black woman. The this is
1:13:07
Adam Curry: I'm going to repeat most theory. Yay. As a theory
1:13:10
said that, you know, all of this Dei, all have all been you know,
1:13:14
putting black women front and center. And by the way, Korean
1:13:18
John Paul Pierre abdul-jabbar is also going to go they will all
1:13:24
take the fall when Trump and we're just going to presume that
1:13:27
when he is elected, they are all going to be blamed for it. And
1:13:31
according to mo he says, Look, this is it. Now it's time for
1:13:34
you you ladies to shine, time for you to go and show you
1:13:38
better do it now. And it's not happening. And the read the read
1:13:42
out. Joy read will probably be in that pile as well. Now she
1:13:47
had on just sticking with immigration for a second Maria
1:13:51
Teresa Kumar. And she, she's big in the I think it's Latin ex
1:14:01
Latin ex political rights activist. Are you familiar with
1:14:08
her?
1:14:10
John C Dvorak: Not offhand. I saw her picture I might
1:14:12
recognize you're pretty young.
1:14:13
Adam Curry: She's born in 1974. She's from Colombia, actually.
1:14:17
So let's see what she has to say here. Well, and I
1:14:19
Unknown: think one of the things that we all also have to realize
1:14:21
is that the by the time that someone gets to the border, Troy
1:14:24
that is not our immigration policy. Right, right. We have to
1:14:28
recognize that the reason that we got to this moment was that
1:14:30
Trump themselves dismantled a lot of the programs where people
1:14:33
could go ahead and file for some sort of visa or work permit in
1:14:37
their home countries. And in an effort to rebuild that you had
1:14:41
COVID that really up ended Latin America specifically, had close
1:14:45
to 16 million middle class Latin Americans that went directly
1:14:49
into lower class. They went into poverty, and there was no
1:14:53
response internationally from any of this. So as the as the
1:14:56
President goes in and talks about how tricky this situation
1:14:59
is, how's it Western hemispheric issue. I hope he also recognizes
1:15:03
that there are essential workers that are demanding relief that
1:15:06
have been here for 1020 30 years that have been paying their
1:15:10
taxes, who have American children who are ready to vote
1:15:14
for him. If he actually recognizes their contribution.
1:15:17
What he
1:15:17
is saying what Trump is saying he's gonna do is just deport
1:15:19
them all. He says he's gonna deport 10. He wants to know
1:15:22
who's whose. This
1:15:23
Adam Curry: is fear mongering this is this is her job now is
1:15:26
to, hey, you've been here for 1020 years be very worried. This
1:15:30
is the same thing they're doing in Germany with the IFA, the
1:15:34
alternate alternative for Deutschland, same thing.
1:15:38
European hair, he's going to deport you.
1:15:40
Unknown: Who is I think anybody Latino is suddenly going to be
1:15:43
targeting Asian or anybody, no one with an accent, an accent,
1:15:46
right? And anybody right Black wants to formula. That's
1:15:52
John C Dvorak: the goal. The goal now Cheech and
1:15:54
Unknown: Chong better hide hold operation went back Park sorry
1:15:57
for the horrible words, but that's what they call this.
1:15:59
Eisenhower wants to
1:16:01
Adam Curry: hear what she said went back they will listen. Yes,
1:16:04
she says she apologizes
1:16:05
Unknown: suddenly going to be talking to me. Or anybody with
1:16:08
an accent right? And anybody right black or brown? I mean,
1:16:10
he's wants to formulate this program that's based on what he
1:16:14
called Operation went back Park sorry for the horrible work
1:16:16
women
1:16:16
Adam Curry: Operation Wetback wasn't that in the Che Guevara
1:16:19
days?
1:16:20
John C Dvorak: Let's look it up.
1:16:21
Adam Curry: Yes, I'm pretty sure. Operation Wetback. I'm
1:16:28
going to finish this clip. 18 seconds while you look. He
1:16:30
Unknown: wants to formulate this program that's based on what
1:16:33
he's called. Operation went back. Pardon. Sorry for the
1:16:35
horrible words, but that's what they call.
1:16:38
John C Dvorak: That's what he wants to have to stop it. Okay.
1:16:40
Operation went back. 1954 Che Guevara by no is a US policy by
1:16:48
US Attorney General Herbert brah. BROWN Well, the short
1:16:51
lived operation using military tiles style tax tactics that
1:16:56
can't read today to remove Mexican immigrants. Some of them
1:17:00
American citizens from the United States operation went
1:17:03
back into Wikipedia, some
1:17:05
Adam Curry: American citizens.
1:17:08
John C Dvorak: It was headed by Ed Yeah, okay.
1:17:11
Unknown: Sorry for the horrible words, but that's what they call
1:17:13
those Eisenhower. Yeah. And that's what he wants to do. It's
1:17:15
a mass cruelty program. But what he's keying in on is that people
1:17:19
are angry, and they just want to see something cool. The same
1:17:22
people who didn't mind that children were being taken off of
1:17:25
their the breasts of their mothers as their breastfeeding.
1:17:28
Grandma, my parents had in mind that they want them back.
1:17:31
Adam Curry: These people, they just want to see something
1:17:33
cruel. Yes. It's like the Roman days and the Colosseum. We just
1:17:37
want to see something cruel and something bloody. There's a part
1:17:40
two to this. We don't
1:17:41
Unknown: level with each other because one of the reasons why
1:17:43
we are enjoying such an economic bump, immigration, immigration
1:17:48
call i Oh, sup.
1:17:51
Adam Curry: We're enjoying an economic bump right now. Because
1:17:55
of immigration. So all right, yes. This is what they're saying
1:18:00
that the economy is great. His point one, the economy is great.
1:18:05
And, and because all these people who are sleeping in
1:18:08
airports and in repurposed hotels, and the schools now
1:18:14
being forced to stay in people's homes, like in Massachusetts,
1:18:19
this is providing an economic bump. Oh, it's immigration,
1:18:22
Unknown: we don't level with each other. Because one of the
1:18:24
reasons why we are enjoying such an economic bump, immigration,
1:18:28
immigration, the folks that have crossed the border and said, You
1:18:31
know what, and this is what we forget really unifies us. The
1:18:35
folks that come to the United States as immigrants, they come
1:18:38
with this idea that they can be the best version of themselves
1:18:40
in this country. It is our ancestors of entrepreneurs. And
1:18:45
we forget that that is the lifeblood that again, who is
1:18:48
afraid of that? It's the Russians and the Chinese. And we
1:18:50
have to be very, very clear that what is happening right now on
1:18:53
social media when they're trying to separate us. Yes, it's the
1:18:56
far right. But the algorithms fed into us are also foreign
1:18:59
actors. Recognizing that our Achilles heel is the racism but
1:19:03
that are unique in our multicultural strength allows us
1:19:06
to compete
1:19:06
in the world. That is the thing that's sort of mad at me is that
1:19:08
Russia doesn't have to like invent conspiracy theories to
1:19:12
hurt the US. They just have to take the people's already
1:19:15
existing anxiety. Right, it's working and it's working because
1:19:20
people here are letting it work.
1:19:25
Adam Curry: Putin does it again.
1:19:28
John C Dvorak: So what is a couple of lunatics Joy
1:19:31
Adam Curry: read is going to go down to they're all going.
1:19:34
They're all going down. So obvious. You know, there's
1:19:39
something we forgot to talk about, which I think we should
1:19:44
probably probably mention. Here we go is
1:19:46
Unknown: a spa, the spa, the spa, the spoon. Everybody wants
1:19:52
to spot the spoon.
1:19:54
Adam Curry: Yeah. Catherine herridge who was fired from CB
1:20:00
Yes with the latest rounds of CBS fairings paramount in big
1:20:04
Violetta,
1:20:05
John C Dvorak: but another one of those black high profile
1:20:07
black woman who was
1:20:09
Adam Curry: that who did it? Yeah. So our, our initial
1:20:15
reaction was she's being reassigned. And I wonder, and I
1:20:19
felt that a good cover already was, yeah, they got her papers
1:20:24
to get her papers, they got her papers, or they got her papers.
1:20:27
So that's crazy that the feds got her papers. And that to me
1:20:32
make really gives her a lot of credibility forever. She lands
1:20:35
next. But now, now I'm starting to doubt our theory, as she's
1:20:40
being held in civil contempt for refusing to divulge her source.
1:20:44
Yeah.
1:20:46
John C Dvorak: Now, based on some blog suit that's going on
1:20:50
where the person that's being sued is demanding that they find
1:20:54
out something or others the Chinese Chinese woman has a very
1:20:58
complicated case, but I disagree. I think the further
1:21:01
you go down the road with this the more and
1:21:03
Adam Curry: more more credibility. So now she so now
1:21:07
not only is she credible because of the feds who got her papers,
1:21:13
which is credible, because Don't worry, she'll never reveal you
1:21:16
as a source.
1:21:18
John C Dvorak: But you want Yes, the reputation you need. But
1:21:21
Adam Curry: how is she going to get out of this though, without?
1:21:24
John C Dvorak: This is a good question. But she'll get out of
1:21:26
it. Somehow they can't continue.
1:21:27
Adam Curry: Now. I still think she's going to land a government
1:21:30
job. That's where that's where you want her NOW. Kirby is
1:21:34
failing. Let's be honest, Kirby can't he's got no credibility
1:21:38
anymore. She would be great. She could she could actually relate
1:21:41
better
1:21:41
John C Dvorak: than Kirby Kirby's Kirby began, I think, in
1:21:45
the Defense Department, ya know, he's
1:21:47
Adam Curry: a rare animal.
1:21:48
John C Dvorak: We all know what he is. And he was kind of
1:21:50
working his way up the ladder. And then he's gotten to the
1:21:52
point where he can't lie very well. He's no good at it. No. So
1:21:58
he's fumbles and mumbles and he's up there and he makes
1:22:01
stupid says dumb stuff. And he doesn't look comfortable and he
1:22:05
doesn't look like he's enjoying the job. John pair looks like
1:22:08
she's enjoying the job.
1:22:09
Adam Curry: But I think she she needs to go down and she'll be
1:22:12
out and that would be a great spot for pixie girl for
1:22:15
Catherine herridge. I think she would be a perfect next spokes
1:22:18
all for the President. Yeah, yeah, I think she she's got the
1:22:24
John C Dvorak: next president's going to be Trump unless they
1:22:26
really do a great number. And I have a clip from 2004.
1:22:32
Adam Curry: Going back in time with the sound of the nation.
1:22:36
John C Dvorak: This is, if you remember the George Bush, Kerry
1:22:40
election. In 2004, there was a voting machine scandal. It was
1:22:46
based on the deep, bold machines. Diebold here's
1:22:49
Adam Curry: what I remember. I remember. Just just when you say
1:22:53
that the first impression I remember watching the carry was
1:22:56
carries camp live on television. And all of a sudden you just see
1:23:01
Kerry's face go wood, and his numbers just tanked. At that
1:23:07
very moment, there was like this huge surge for Bush. That's
1:23:11
That's what I remember. Huge.
1:23:14
John C Dvorak: Remember, right? And the thing was at Bush was
1:23:18
unpopular at the time, because he had implemented all kinds of
1:23:22
things like the Patriot Act. And he's the wars that were he was
1:23:28
promoting, were going not going well. And it was just it was
1:23:31
just a waste of money was terrible
1:23:32
Adam Curry: big head.
1:23:34
John C Dvorak: And he was dumb. He was he was smart when he was
1:23:37
in Texas, because you can see the old clips that he was sharp
1:23:40
and then he was became kind of dopey making you wonder what
1:23:43
they're dragging these guys with. And so we have now we have
1:23:48
Jerry Nadler, who I believe is on the Charlie Rose show in
1:23:52
2004. Talking about voting machines,
1:23:55
Unknown: if in fact, someone were deliberately hacking these
1:23:57
machines, you could steal millions of votes, and no one
1:24:00
would know it. And that's why the methodology is problematic.
1:24:03
Now there is no evidence that happened. But you can't prove it
1:24:06
didn't either. And you can't prove it won't next time. That's
1:24:09
why we have to have a paper trail. We've documented any
1:24:12
number of people documented a machine in this county that
1:24:15
recorded 11,000 extra votes for Bush and that county that was
1:24:19
counting carry votes for Bush people who pushed the touch to
1:24:25
Karis name would come up Bush they touched it again and would
1:24:28
come up push they touched a third time he finally got it
1:24:29
right. And all kinds of things like this one, one machine. And
1:24:34
when we say my machine, these are large machines like I have a
1:24:36
county apparently, after it reached 3000 votes total every
1:24:41
time you voted for Bush it subtracted one instead of added
1:24:43
one we add push carried subtract one instead of adding one. In
1:24:47
all these instances were instances where they were quite
1:24:49
otherwise they wouldn't have been reported. They were quite
1:24:51
presumably corrected. The question, obviously, is how many
1:24:54
instances were not caught that we don't know about? And what if
1:24:57
any impact did that have on the election of national president?
1:25:00
Have been for county commissioner or congressman, or
1:25:02
whatever. And it's clear that we have some of these new
1:25:07
technologies of the electronic voting, replacing the the Chad's
1:25:11
and all that which had other problems. But they're no paper
1:25:15
trails. And we have all sorts of testimony before the election
1:25:18
from electronics experts that, number one, we've seen a lot of
1:25:22
what are called Honest glitches where it just didn't work.
1:25:25
Adam Curry: Why did you say honest glitches? Yeah,
1:25:29
Unknown: the money before the election from electronics
1:25:31
experts that. Number one, we've seen a lot of what are called
1:25:35
Honest glitches where it just didn't work, right. But also
1:25:38
that these machines are hackable that a dishonest employee of the
1:25:42
vendor, or dishonest employee of a local board of elections, or
1:25:46
simply someone who knows electronics and has a computer
1:25:49
at home, could hack into these machines and put in a secret
1:25:53
instruction to disregard every 20th democratic voter ID 10% of
1:25:57
the carrier to the bush voter, whatever, he might not ever know
1:26:00
it. I
1:26:02
Adam Curry: would like to point out that Gillespie County is a
1:26:04
hand count County in Texas, we have banned electronic voting
1:26:09
machines.
1:26:11
John C Dvorak: Which should be everywhere. Yeah. Okay. And this
1:26:15
by the way, we I'm going to re re mentioned that this is from
1:26:19
2004. There's no reason that this hasn't changed at companies
1:26:23
that may.
1:26:24
Adam Curry: Why didn't Diebold Sue Nadler for this for this
1:26:28
outrageous accusation?
1:26:30
John C Dvorak: Because now there's got the net, the deep
1:26:32
pockets of Fox Oh, okay. So here we go. And
1:26:36
Unknown: we had these warnings before the election, and
1:26:38
apparently they're correct. And we have all these questions now.
1:26:41
And we're seeing instances of, so far as we know, honest
1:26:47
glitches that we caught
1:26:48
Adam Curry: Hey, dude, this glitches, that's a bumper
1:26:52
sticker.
1:26:52
Unknown: But the question arises, how many didn't we
1:26:54
catch? And how do you prevent that? Now, there's legislation
1:26:58
pending, which I'm co sponsoring, offered in the house
1:27:00
by rush halt in the Senate by Hillary Clinton and others. That
1:27:03
says, Every electronic machine should have a paper trail like
1:27:06
an ATM machine gives you a receipt, you should when you
1:27:10
push the carry, let's say you vote for carry an A for Congress
1:27:14
and B for the Senate, it should say carry a and b you see that a
1:27:18
machine. It should also print the piece of paper, which you
1:27:20
see, you look at the piece of paper, you see, okay, you then
1:27:23
press submit, it cuts off the piece of paper drops it into
1:27:26
into a box. So if anybody raises questions after the election,
1:27:29
you can in fact, count the paper. There was one county
1:27:33
where on some local race or some referendum, they lost 4500
1:27:38
votes, machine, hiccup, they lost it 4500 People didn't have
1:27:42
their votes counted. And we don't know if that made a
1:27:44
difference in that referendum or local race or whatever. But the
1:27:48
system is inherently subject to that kind of thing. So we asked
1:27:51
for investing Congressman Conyers, who's the ranking
1:27:54
Democrat on the Judiciary Committee, and Bob Wexler,
1:27:57
congressman from California, and I asked the Government
1:28:00
Accountability Office, which used to be known as the
1:28:03
Government Accounting Office, which is the nonpartisan
1:28:05
investigative arm of Congress to invest in, we asked that they
1:28:09
investigate the efficacy of voting machines and new
1:28:11
technologies, how election officials responded to
1:28:14
difficulties encountered and what we can do in the future. To
1:28:17
improve our election systems. These companies did a tremendous
1:28:19
sales job after the 2000 election in Florida, where we
1:28:23
had all those pains and problems with the Chad's. And everybody
1:28:26
said, get rid of these punch card machines find a better way
1:28:28
to do it, find a better way to do it, they had these products,
1:28:30
these products weren't really quite ready. I don't think I
1:28:33
mean, all these we have all these professors and these
1:28:35
computer experts telling us that the encryption algorithms aren't
1:28:39
sufficient that the protections are insufficient, their
1:28:43
proprietary data, so they kept secret. So we don't really know.
1:28:46
But they wanted to sell the machines and they did a
1:28:49
tremendous sales job. Oh,
1:28:50
Adam Curry: brother. Okay, well, now that almost just got
1:28:54
indigestion from listening to Nadler for three and a half
1:28:57
minutes. The 2000 election came up, I'm going to hit you right
1:29:01
back with another view clip in a conversation about the Supreme
1:29:07
Court decision, or schedule to discuss a decision whether any
1:29:15
president not just President Trump, but retroactively any
1:29:19
president can be held accountable for crimes committed
1:29:25
during a president's administration. This is this is
1:29:29
what is coming before the Supreme Court. The immunity?
1:29:34
Yes, the evaluation immunity now and I would just say upfront, I
1:29:38
think that the what's being ignored here is there is a
1:29:42
process if a president commits a crime or is questioned about it
1:29:47
has questionable behavior. The process is impeachment. And
1:29:51
after the impeachment in in the house, it goes to the Senate and
1:29:54
they can convict him.
1:29:57
John C Dvorak: Right? Yes, and then he can go Oh, two normal
1:30:01
civil court trials. Right.
1:30:03
Adam Curry: But so there is a process if you have a bogus
1:30:06
president. Yeah, there's a process, but that is just
1:30:09
ignored by the women of the view. And they so what you have,
1:30:14
I'm going to use the word positive. It's very interesting
1:30:18
that if, if they say Trump is accountable and and does not
1:30:23
have immunity for his mounting a insurrection, as when he was
1:30:29
still president, then we can arrest Obama for droning
1:30:33
American citizens. You can do all kinds of stuff. Yeah, the
1:30:36
lady from the view. Yes. You're gonna say, Well, I
1:30:39
John C Dvorak: was gonna say, curiously, the bullets out of
1:30:43
the out of the Justice miles but I have it turns out that Obama,
1:30:48
I didn't realize this, but he not only killed a Locky and a
1:30:52
lucky kid and
1:30:53
Adam Curry: his kids 16 year old we're having. They're having
1:30:56
coffee.
1:30:58
John C Dvorak: Yeah, supposedly. He said he also in the process,
1:31:04
killed Samir Khan, who is an American, US citizen of
1:31:08
Pakistani heritage, and he also killed Jude, Mohammed, another
1:31:13
American, born in Florida, American citizen. So Obama
1:31:17
murdered three, four people. And in fact, it said, I'm going to
1:31:25
read from the CBS, it said we're after he killed in October
1:31:29
14 2011. In Yemen, he killed the kid Abdul, in an extra judicial
1:31:36
killing some US officials called it a mistake. Even the President
1:31:40
has said in some reports to have considered it a bad mistake. The
1:31:44
former White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs, and
1:31:47
remember him stated that his death was justified.
1:31:52
Adam Curry: And this was all death by drone. Right? That's by
1:31:55
drone.
1:31:55
John C Dvorak: Yeah. They just murdered these people. And. And
1:32:00
in his space, he murdered these people. So the people on the
1:32:04
view, have to say, on the show that Obama, which could be
1:32:10
arrested tomorrow and thrown in jail for murder, no,
1:32:15
Adam Curry: they take an entirely different, unique and
1:32:17
very interesting approach.
1:32:20
Unknown: Well, Mr. Frame court won't hear oral arguments until
1:32:23
the end of April. Now, I just, you know, just look at a
1:32:29
scenario where the Supreme Court says, Yes, he has that he has
1:32:33
all those rights. He is immune from everything. You know, what
1:32:36
Joe Biden could do since he is presently president. He could
1:32:45
throw every Republican in jail. I mean, he could I mean, this is
1:32:51
not what this means is this, he can do anything. Yeah, he could
1:32:59
dismiss everybody's debt. There's a whole bunch of great
1:33:04
stuff that could happen. But let's really look at what this
1:33:07
means.
1:33:09
kicking the can down the road, though. They they're not taking
1:33:12
up this case immediately. What's their motivation, then? If they
1:33:16
if we all know that we can't do what you just said, because of
1:33:19
the extreme power that a president would have? What is
1:33:22
the motivation for not doing it right away? Unfortunately, some
1:33:25
people are saying the motivation is that there are certain
1:33:29
conservative justices that have been appointed by Trump, they
1:33:32
want to help him. And because we know the end result is if this
1:33:36
case is not resolved, by the time of the election, and he God
1:33:42
forbid, becomes the President of the United States. The Justice
1:33:46
Department policy is that you cannot indict nor put on trial,
1:33:51
a sitting president. Right. And so it's out of jail. But it's
1:33:57
his Get Out of Jail Free card.
1:33:59
No, no, I'm saying Biden could this is a slippery slope. It was
1:34:03
it was what's good for the good. I
1:34:06
also will say is they're listening to these arguments in
1:34:09
April, the end of their term is in June, right? They returned
1:34:12
again, I believe in October. The Bush v Gore case happened real
1:34:17
quick.
1:34:18
Do you remember that?
1:34:20
How to work real fast that
1:34:22
was the J democracy died
1:34:28
Adam Curry: well, what a day,
1:34:29
John C Dvorak: it was did if that was the day democracy died,
1:34:31
why are you even doing this show?
1:34:33
Adam Curry: So I just like the the flipping it on its head and
1:34:36
saying, Well, you know, if if Trump has immunity, then Joe
1:34:40
Biden can just get rid of everybody's debt can throw all
1:34:45
Republicans in jail. This this program is not good for your
1:34:50
health. It's hard for me to even I mean, I can feel the effects
1:34:55
just playing the clips. This is really dumbing down the American
1:34:59
population. And they're popular that a lot of people watch it.
1:35:04
John C Dvorak: What is the deal? What is the deal? The deal is
1:35:07
with his new hairdo. That scatters sides are cut off and
1:35:12
she's got her hair. Way back. What is this? She's wearing?
1:35:16
He's got a mullet. Yeah. What is this? Look? It's cool. Ask Moe,
1:35:22
he's an expert on hair hairstyles.
1:35:24
Adam Curry: We don't touch the third rail of black woman's
1:35:26
hair, that's very bad rail to touch. Okay, so here's what
1:35:33
everyone's talking about online. It's none of this. None of this.
1:35:36
None of this is being discussed. Here's what's real. Here's
1:35:40
what's really grabbed everybody's attention. And I
1:35:42
have an opinion on it. This guy named Ian Carroll, who's just a
1:35:48
dude on x. He's the one that has the most compelling version of
1:35:53
it, and his videos are receiving millions of views on the x. And
1:35:58
this is about the Diddy lawsuit. It
1:36:01
Unknown: just got the Jeffrey Epstein of the music and
1:36:03
entertainment industry. The new lawsuit that just dropped
1:36:06
against Diddy is massive. And it has photos. It has videos,
1:36:10
names, names, and there's so much here that it's never going
1:36:13
to fit into a single video. So I'm going to do a quick overview
1:36:15
in this video. And then I'm going to do a couple of parts
1:36:18
breaking down all the different aspects of what's come out so
1:36:20
far. We're talking crime scenes, we're talking photo evidence of
1:36:24
celebrities like Cuba Gooding Jr. We're talking record label
1:36:27
executives. We're talking hidden cameras in every room in the
1:36:30
house, getting recordings of celebrities, executives,
1:36:34
politicians at parties with celebrities and underage girls
1:36:38
with drinks being spiked with drugs. It goes all the way back
1:36:41
to the murder of Tupac and baby. We're talking about the entire
1:36:45
rap and hip hop industry and the whole music industry at large.
1:36:49
So what's happened just now is that this man Rodney Jones, who
1:36:53
is a music producer that worked with Sean Combs, who is Diddy,
1:36:56
he just filed this lawsuit, and he didn't just file it against
1:37:00
did he filed against the executives at all the companies
1:37:03
associated and against the company's like Universal Music
1:37:07
Group says lawyers claim that he has secured hundreds of hours of
1:37:11
footage and audio recordings of Diddy and his staff and his
1:37:14
guests engaging in serious illegal activity. So
1:37:18
Adam Curry: this is salacious. Everybody loves it. We got Cuba
1:37:22
Gooding Jr. We've got supposedly Usher all these people who are
1:37:27
all involved in what the music industry has known forever to it
1:37:32
because the root of this is Clive Davis, Clive Davis, who
1:37:36
had certain point came out and said, Hey, everybody, I'm
1:37:38
bisexual. Really, Clive, we need to put CI and all of this
1:37:43
salaciousness comes through from from that route of Clive Davis
1:37:48
and Diddy being gay, please, this is nothing new. But we now
1:37:52
have all of this evidence and and they've named all the
1:37:56
executives of the record companies and the sub labels and
1:37:59
the sub labels of the sub labels and the publishing companies. So
1:38:03
it's going to be it's going to capture everyone's imagination.
1:38:08
What this guy is doing I don't have any further clips is he's
1:38:12
connecting this to the Whitney Webb reporting on Epstein and J.
1:38:21
Edgar Hoover, which is specious at best. As as you and I have
1:38:26
discussed generally disproven disproven that you know that
1:38:30
there's pictures of him in a dress pictures of him committed
1:38:33
fellatio that actually is all fake. There is no picture. And
1:38:37
by the way, there's more evidence J. Edgar Hoover was
1:38:39
blacker than that he was you know that he was homosexual?
1:38:45
Yeah, that's true. Yeah. And But what this does is two things.
1:38:50
One, it distracts from the actual Epstein case because now
1:38:54
everyone will be crazy about this. This is your controlled
1:38:57
opportunists that work. And the second thing it does is it
1:39:01
distracts from Taylor Swift being a Satanist. The true and I
1:39:06
was wondering
1:39:07
John C Dvorak: where you're gonna go with this because I'm,
1:39:09
I knew about all this gonna bring into showbiz stuff because
1:39:15
you know, Adam, he so wishes he was in the business. Oh,
1:39:18
Adam Curry: boy. It was so much fun. Don't drop the soap in the
1:39:24
business. Yeah, no, it distracts from the true evil which is the
1:39:28
women in show business particularly in the music
1:39:31
business, who are Wiccans. They are witches, they're doing all
1:39:35
kinds of creepy stuff. They're devil worshippers and, and sadly
1:39:39
they've they've captured Taylor Swift as far as I can tell, and
1:39:43
and so this is probably them. They're like Hey, Lee
1:39:55
that's what's going on here. So Taylor is safe, stay for a
1:39:58
while, while everyone else focuses on Diddy and did he is
1:40:01
going down down down down down down so you can rest assured
1:40:09
everybody you don't have to do much else you can just calm down
1:40:12
it's all good that's
1:40:13
John C Dvorak: good I'm sure calm down
1:40:16
Adam Curry: this not a
1:40:17
John C Dvorak: rock and roll pre show person is going to be more
1:40:20
than pleased and
1:40:22
Adam Curry: you're gonna see Whitney Webb going insane and
1:40:25
appearing everywhere talking about how she invented all this
1:40:29
and it's all the Jewish mafia that's the Whitney with your
1:40:34
weight good speaking of controlled opportunists there's
1:40:37
there's number one as far as I'm concerned and be very careful
1:40:41
John C Dvorak: doing your due diligence in Chile or wherever
1:40:44
the hell
1:40:45
Adam Curry: we Chile we have to be very careful very careful of
1:40:48
a lot of people out there.
1:40:50
John C Dvorak: Anyway, anyone with dangerous anyone?
1:40:53
Adam Curry: Anyone who does video with their podcasts that
1:40:55
are dangerous. Yeah. The me that's a giveaway if you got a
1:40:59
podcast in his video, you're dangerous. It's just no good.
1:41:04
Except Joe, of course. Something happened Oh, see, where are you?
1:41:12
What do you want to do something big pharma stuff.
1:41:15
John C Dvorak: I have some CDC stuff and but I also have a
1:41:18
three by three did about the Israeli situation that probably
1:41:22
because we're not going to talk about it. I don't think except
1:41:24
for this possibility. We can jump to that war.
1:41:30
Adam Curry: We've done so much war.
1:41:33
John C Dvorak: We can skip it for now.
1:41:34
Adam Curry: We can I don't want to skip it. It's probably
1:41:36
important. But it's the clips two minutes long, or they also
1:41:41
just get so long.
1:41:42
John C Dvorak: Take a look and see what you think. Let
1:41:43
Adam Curry: me see. Let me see how long we just look at the ABC
1:41:47
137 It's just well let's let's do some let's do some big pharma
1:41:51
stuff. First, let's do your CDC clips because
1:41:54
John C Dvorak: of the CDC was doing with new guidelines new
1:41:57
CD, this new CDC woman Cindy or whatever the hell Her name is
1:42:03
Cohen, Amy, Amy Cohen, Amy, Amy. And she's just like a kind of a
1:42:09
girl who couldn't make the cheerleading team. So she's on
1:42:12
the pom pom squad. That that that one? That one and so she's
1:42:19
there trying to answer questions on PBS. She answers nothing.
1:42:23
She's just a she's a drone promoting the vaccine. They're
1:42:27
never going to let up on this. Heaven forbid.
1:42:32
Adam Curry: Cute clip. Is that what you're saying here? Yeah,
1:42:35
John C Dvorak: new CDC guidance. COVID PBS,
1:42:38
Unknown: the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has
1:42:40
changed its COVID guidance for when people need to isolate.
1:42:44
It's part of the CDC is broader recommendations on respiratory
1:42:47
illnesses. The agency now says people who've tested positive
1:42:51
can return to normal activities when symptoms are improving. And
1:42:55
they've been fever free for at least 24 hours without
1:42:58
medication. But the CDC also encourages people with improving
1:43:01
symptoms to take additional prevention measures like mask
1:43:05
wearing and keeping distance in public. CDC Director Dr. Mandy
1:43:09
Cohen joins me
1:43:10
Adam Curry: now. Hello, and welcome, Mandy, not a mandate
1:43:13
Unknown: to the news. Our thanks for joining us. Thanks for
1:43:16
having me. Great to be here. So this is the first time you've
1:43:18
shifted guidance or isolation guidance since 2021. That was
1:43:23
when it was reduced from 10 days to five days. Why these changes
1:43:27
in guidance right now? What's that based on? Well, we are in a
1:43:30
different place. And that's after a lot of hard work to make
1:43:33
sure that we had the tools to protect each other against
1:43:37
Adam Curry: tools tools.
1:43:40
John C Dvorak: He asked a specific question. You changed
1:43:43
it from 10 days to five days to now you got just a couple of
1:43:46
days. What is this based on? And then your answers this question?
1:43:52
Adam Curry: Well, no, she's on the pom pom squad, not the not a
1:43:55
librarian here leadership.
1:43:56
Unknown: Why these changes in guidance right now? What's that
1:43:59
based on? Well, we are in a different place. And that's
1:44:02
after a lot of hard work.
1:44:04
Adam Curry: I love that we're in a different place the science is
1:44:06
in the science is settled, come on,
1:44:08
Unknown: make sure that we had the tools to protect each other
1:44:11
against COVID. What we've been seeing is lower hospitalizations
1:44:15
and lower deaths even as we saw high levels of virus spread. So
1:44:19
this past winter season, we saw both in our wastewater data and
1:44:23
others that virus spreading in our community. But luckily those
1:44:28
trends in hospitalizations and death continued to go down. And
1:44:32
what we were seeing is that really vaccination is what is
1:44:36
continuing to protect folks. So we wanted to unify our guidance
1:44:41
today not just for COVID, but across COVID, flu and RSV so
1:44:45
folks could have common sense practical solutions that they
1:44:48
could use every day that they can remember that they can
1:44:51
implement across a range of viruses, you're really
1:44:54
Adam Curry: going to tell me that we need for Eclipse to
1:44:57
point out that We've gone from 10 days to five days to just
1:45:03
receive or do whatever you want. Is that how long it took this
1:45:07
Mandy?
1:45:08
John C Dvorak: Man, the second Mandy clip is only 59 seconds.
1:45:13
Unknown: But there were some states as you know, like
1:45:15
California, Oregon, others that began relaxing their COVID
1:45:18
isolation guidance as early as last year counter to your
1:45:22
guidance at the time is this sort of the CDC kind of chasing
1:45:26
catching up to where people have already been for all know,
1:45:29
while? Well, we know what we were looking at this guidance
1:45:32
last summer and seeing if we can move in this direction. And then
1:45:36
the virus changed in last August. And we wanted to make
1:45:39
sure we were through another winter season that those trends
1:45:44
in lower hospitalizations and lower deaths continued to hold.
1:45:48
And the good news is they did. And so we feel comfortable
1:45:51
moving forward now. But remember, like always, this
1:45:53
virus is changing. If anything changes in terms of our
1:45:57
effectiveness of vaccines or treatment. We may be back here
1:46:01
needing to change guidance, but we feel comfortable aligning
1:46:05
across COVID flu and RSV for some simple solutions like
1:46:09
vaccination, like making sure you get treatment and staying
1:46:12
home when you're sick.
1:46:15
John C Dvorak: So this, we don't have to play the rest of it. But
1:46:18
it goes on with this poor woman on PBS struggling to get
1:46:22
something out of this some some actual
1:46:24
Adam Curry: fact nothing out, it gets nothing out.
1:46:26
John C Dvorak: She's just gonna go on and on by getting
1:46:28
vaccinated. And that's about it, that the message is get
1:46:32
vaccinated, and we're going to have a new virus keeps changing.
1:46:35
So there's going to be a new vaccine, you can play the
1:46:37
actually the last clip will summarize everything where she
1:46:40
says there's new stuff coming out and get a new vaccine if you
1:46:44
haven't gotten one already. And that's basically the message.
1:46:47
Unknown: To be fair, the vaccine can obviously prevent serious
1:46:49
illness, but it doesn't prevent spread of COVID Will people
1:46:52
isolating for a shorter amount of time potentially add to the
1:46:56
spread of the virus? Oh
1:46:58
Adam Curry: man do they hear themselves at please. If you if
1:47:02
you're within the sound of my voice, a vaccine that doesn't
1:47:05
prevent spread and doesn't prevent you getting it is not a
1:47:08
vaccine, it's not a
1:47:09
John C Dvorak: raka shit is what it is. Well, the
1:47:11
Unknown: good news is when you get vaccinated, right, you are
1:47:14
both less likely to go into the hospital, but you're also less
1:47:17
likely to get long COVID. And you are less likely to get this
1:47:21
virus overall, right. So less virus spreading means that we
1:47:25
are protecting others. And now we want we're protecting others
1:47:28
plenty to give simple, clear kinds of guidance so that folks
1:47:33
can remember them. That can be really actionable. Because if
1:47:36
more people are using the guidance, we think that's going
1:47:39
to benefit everyone. And look, the folks who are vulnerable.
1:47:43
They were top of mind. For us at CDC, as we were thinking about
1:47:48
this guidance, we all know someone who's at higher risk
1:47:50
over 65 are immunocompromised, I have them in my own family. So
1:47:55
we were thinking about them as we did this guidance, we think
1:47:59
we found the balance to protecting the most vulnerable
1:48:02
and having this clear and simple way for most folks to protect
1:48:06
themselves. You also said this week that Americans 65 and older
1:48:09
should get an additional dose of that latest COVID vaccine this
1:48:13
spring. That relaxing the guidance. At the same time.
1:48:16
You're asking people to go and get another booster sends
1:48:19
conflicting
1:48:20
Adam Curry: messages. No, no, we just want to kill old people.
1:48:23
Unknown: No. And in fact, our guidance today the very first
1:48:26
core strategy that we want to emphasize to folks is about
1:48:30
being up to date on your vaccine vaccines is what we are
1:48:34
continuing to see protect folks here. So we want to make sure
1:48:38
folks are getting those updated vaccines. And I want to preview
1:48:41
for folks that we know this COVID virus continues to change
1:48:46
and we need to stay ahead of it. And we've already started the
1:48:50
process CDC and FDA to update the COVID vaccine for later this
1:48:56
year. So right now folks should start planning for this fall to
1:49:00
get both an updated COVID vaccine and an updated flu shot.
1:49:03
What
1:49:04
Adam Curry: does that mean? Start planning that's it. Put it
1:49:06
in my calendar. Do I have to save for it? Do I have to alert
1:49:09
the neighbors wake the children? Let's plan for it.
1:49:13
John C Dvorak: You got to start planning for fall.
1:49:15
Adam Curry: Meanwhile, this is still on deck
1:49:18
Unknown: this morning friends family and fans are remembering
1:49:22
Craig row. A former star linebacker for the University of
1:49:28
Michigan losing his battle with colon cancer
1:49:31
at Michigan has forever been defined by Guy stepping up every
1:49:35
year. He
1:49:36
was just 33 row was diagnosed with stage four colon cancer
1:49:40
last year. His death part of a troubling trend colon cancer
1:49:44
another deadliest cancer for men under age 50 And the second
1:49:48
deadliest cancer for women under 50. Doctors say obesity and
1:49:52
lifestyle can play a role.
1:49:54
What we're concerned about clearly are lifestyle food or
1:49:57
environmental exposures that may be the err, but it's hard to
1:50:01
know what we do know is this that for people under the age of
1:50:05
50 diagnosed with colon cancer, about a third of them have some
1:50:08
remarkable family history that might have given us a clue as to
1:50:12
that having occurred.
1:50:14
That's why doctors say it's so important to get screened
1:50:17
beginning at age 45. But Americans are not getting the
1:50:20
message 80% of people ages 45 to 50 are not getting screened.
1:50:25
Many of them dreading a colonoscopy,
1:50:27
there are options to do it in your own home. Within sales jobs
1:50:32
Adam Curry: sales job there it is sales job for the cola guard
1:50:35
for Yeah, for pooping the bag reading
1:50:37
Unknown: a colonoscopy,
1:50:38
there are options to do it in your own home within just a few
1:50:42
minutes, and with just as much accuracy as a colonoscopy, those
1:50:46
with a family
1:50:46
Adam Curry: history of which is a lie. It's a lie because they
1:50:50
say this, they say in the ad and the real ad said this paid
1:50:54
promotion they say could be false positive could be false
1:50:57
negative, but you know, pooping the bag people just poop in a
1:51:00
bag. It's good. You could do it a whole privates.
1:51:02
John C Dvorak: delivered to your front door, open the bag. See,
1:51:05
Unknown: as a colonoscopy,
1:51:06
those with a family history of cancer or who experienced
1:51:09
symptoms should talk to their doctor about getting screened
1:51:11
earlier. Symptoms include a change in bowel habits, rectal
1:51:15
bleeding, abdominal discomfort, fatigue and unexplained weight
1:51:19
loss. Doctors say colorectal cancer can develop silently. So
1:51:23
early detection is key. And if caught early, the survival rate
1:51:27
is more than 90%.
1:51:30
Adam Curry: So this is just horrible. The medical community
1:51:34
still does not understand how, where this troubling trend comes
1:51:39
from. We can't figure it out. It could be lifestyle, it could be
1:51:42
your die. Oh, well, if it's your diet, then let's just go to the
1:51:46
ozempic, shall we? By the
1:51:47
Unknown: beginning of 2023. One Medicine was on everyone's lips.
1:51:53
Adam Curry: Oh,
1:51:55
Unknown: three a diabetes drug. With an astonishing side effect.
1:52:00
Adults lost up to 14 pounds. Since then, there's been a
1:52:04
constant drumbeat in the news ozempic who's affected as Empik
1:52:08
and frenzied buzz on social media. Once you hit two clicks,
1:52:12
you are good to go. And it's not just ozempic there's Manjaro for
1:52:15
diabetes, and with govi and zap bound to treat obesity, all
1:52:20
promoting significant weight loss. It's estimated up to 5
1:52:24
million Americans are taking them a staggering figure
1:52:27
considering the weekly injections need refrigeration,
1:52:30
and possibly a lifetime commitment.
1:52:32
Adam Curry: This is a special that ran on NBC called the Big
1:52:35
Shot. And there's some very troubling trends in the
1:52:40
promotion of the GLP. One products. The what we'll get to
1:52:46
in a moment is the incessant discrediting of compounded forms
1:52:52
of this, because you know, you have to have the brand name
1:52:55
otherwise, what are you doing? And I think that even though you
1:53:03
know, this is part promotion and part discredit tation. But for
1:53:07
Under no circumstances, should social media influencers be
1:53:12
allowed to hock drugs online? I mean, that's there needs to be
1:53:18
some kind of kibosh on this troubling trend, and tick
1:53:22
Unknown: tock, it's on social media, it's on Facebook, it's on
1:53:25
TV, etc. everybody around you is taking it. And then the rise of
1:53:29
telehealth. Yeah, it's like all these things are feeding into
1:53:31
this.
1:53:32
I think it's unique, so lucrative market and it's
1:53:34
growing very quickly. We've seen that with other categories of
1:53:37
drugs. What's different now is you have telehealth, you know,
1:53:40
you you have a cash pay market. And you have the social media,
1:53:43
which has created sort of a cultural phenomenon around these
1:53:45
drugs. And it's harder for a regulatory process to keep up
1:53:48
with that. Our team
1:53:49
wanted to see how easy it would be to get compounded semaglutide
1:53:53
So we put it to the test, we picked telehealth sites that
1:53:57
didn't require any bloodwork. We use our real names and real body
1:54:01
stats. By these metrics. None of us should have qualified for GLP
1:54:05
one medications on one site, all I had to do was input some basic
1:54:10
info, like my height, weight and set up a call with a doctor. No,
1:54:14
I've never tried this before. After a seven minute consult.
1:54:18
I'm qualified. Okay, five questions and that's it. I was
1:54:21
approved, right? Think of the eight sites we reached out to to
1:54:25
approved us to take compounded semaglutide None of us saw a
1:54:29
doctor in person. Compounded semaglutide is currently allowed
1:54:33
by the FDA, but it's not approved. And that's an
1:54:36
important difference. There are dozens of pharmacies across the
1:54:40
country mixing their own versions, sometimes adding other
1:54:44
ingredients like B 12. And while some of the facilities are
1:54:47
inspected by the FDA, that drugs they make or not. So
1:54:52
Adam Curry: this is part because of course the you what you want
1:54:55
is a telehealth provider. You already heard that it's very
1:54:57
easy. Just five questions. Law Whatever be they'll prescribe it
1:55:02
to you, but don't get the compounded. No, no, make sure
1:55:05
you have an approved telehealth provider who gives you the good
1:55:09
stuff. You know the real stuff, the stuff that has the brand
1:55:11
name on it, and there's something up with Oprah and her
1:55:15
leaving weightwatchers after they acquired a telehealth
1:55:19
provider, I have two clips. Let's see if we can figure it
1:55:22
Unknown: out. shares of the company that used to be known as
1:55:24
weightwatchers lost 18% of their value yesterday after a major
1:55:28
announcement. Oprah Winfrey has decided to leave its board of
1:55:31
directors ending her long term relationship with the company
1:55:35
link Yano has warned the potential impact on the famous
1:55:38
brand. Let's let 2016 be the year my best buddies
1:55:43
for nearly a decade. Oprah Winfrey has been the face of
1:55:46
weightwatchers joining the board in 2015 when she acquired a 10%
1:55:51
stake in the company. But Wednesday the company announced
1:55:54
the media mogul was stepping down. Despite leaving the board.
1:55:58
Winfrey said in his statement, I have been a longtime supporter
1:56:01
of this worthy organization. And I am proud to continue my
1:56:05
support. He in December, Winfrey revealed to People Magazine that
1:56:08
she uses a weight loss drug as a maintenance tool. And she was
1:56:12
quote done with a shaming you under Dr. Melanie J sat on a
1:56:16
panel with Winfree in fall of 2023.
1:56:19
We talked about how it's not the easy way out you still have to
1:56:22
manage the medications long term, you still have to make
1:56:26
changes to your lifestyle.
1:56:28
Although Winfrey hasn't said which medication she's taking
1:56:30
drugs like ozempic and would go v have soared in popularity in
1:56:34
recent years. In fact, Weight Watchers recently launched a
1:56:38
program geared toward people who use such weight loss drugs,
1:56:41
you don't necessarily have to work as much on hunger cues,
1:56:45
because the medications help with those but you do have to
1:56:48
make sure you're getting enough protein and enough fruits and
1:56:50
vegetables. And so I think people still need a lot of
1:56:53
support to
1:56:53
do that Winfrey herself said in a statement, she looks forward
1:56:57
to continuing to advise and collaborate with Weight
1:57:00
Watchers. She also plans to donate her weightwatchers stock
1:57:03
to the National Museum of African American History and
1:57:06
Culture. In Part Weight Watchers said to eliminate any perceived
1:57:10
conflict of interest around her taking weight loss medication.
1:57:14
Adam Curry: Okay, before I get to Gail, who was her fanny pack
1:57:18
wearing camping buddy. The She donated her shares to the
1:57:27
National Museum of African American History and Culture to
1:57:29
avoid any conflict of interest. Well, I find that odd because
1:57:33
she is on the museum council. So that seems like a conflict of
1:57:38
interest right there. She just gave it to something that she's
1:57:41
on the on the board of the Council, which is also if you
1:57:46
donate it, I'm sure that's a tax deduction.
1:57:49
John C Dvorak: Well, a big one.
1:57:50
Adam Curry: This council is interesting. Our buddy Ted
1:57:53
leonsis is on the council. That's interesting. Let's see
1:57:58
who else is on here. We have the Mellon Foundation Walgreens
1:58:03
boots Alliance, we've got Laura Bush, oh, she's dead. Oh, well.
1:58:09
We have no, I'm just kidding. Different bushes dead. We got
1:58:15
the CEO of Merck, former chairman and CEO of Merck. We've
1:58:19
got some bankers. I'm president of Rutgers University. This is a
1:58:24
huge drinking club. Yeah, some army people in there the Ford
1:58:29
Foundation. So yeah, there's nothing going on there. Let's
1:58:33
see what Gail has to say about this. Yeah,
1:58:36
Unknown: I've heard from reliable sources. And Oprah has
1:58:38
big plans covering viable sources.
1:58:41
Adam Curry: You mean, you're you're passing on what Oprah
1:58:43
wants everybody to know.
1:58:45
Unknown: Yeah, I've heard from reliable sources. And Oprah has
1:58:48
big plans coming up. And I think when she donated her stocks, to
1:58:51
which people
1:58:52
don't do by the way, people don't never walk away with the
1:58:54
stock, your money, like
1:58:56
$12 million, that she didn't have to do, right, she didn't
1:58:58
have to do because she could have
1:59:00
John C Dvorak: a tax liability and she wanted to reduce it.
1:59:03
It's no big deal,
1:59:04
Unknown: and then still kept the money. But she wanted to
1:59:06
eliminate any any perception that she has. Now, whatever her
1:59:10
big announcement is, ah,
1:59:12
Adam Curry: here it is. You see, she's up to something she wanted
1:59:15
to eliminate any perception. So it's it's been good $12 million
1:59:20
in tax benefit, whatever, any perception for what she's about
1:59:24
to announce something big is coming from Oprah
1:59:27
Unknown: that she wanted to eliminate any any perception
1:59:31
that she has now whatever her big announcement that she's
1:59:33
going to make, I'm thinking very soon. Yeah, she didn't want
1:59:36
anybody to think that she's doing it because it's a money
1:59:39
grab, right? Yeah. And even you gotta give him sure about that
1:59:45
because
1:59:45
it'd be my way
1:59:48
but I say this all the time.
1:59:50
Adam Curry: The legal focus on the stock not on the big
1:59:53
announcement yet not on the money grab
1:59:56
Unknown: the right thing, even when no one is watching. Yeah,
1:59:58
and I tell this story, we weren't traveling and you know,
2:00:00
you can't have more than x $1,000 in cash. She had $10,000
2:00:04
in cash on her as one does. And as one does the customs people
2:00:09
came on I said, Well, you know, what does she does
2:00:11
Adam Curry: as one does she attempt? By the way, that's a
2:00:14
long standing rule. If you have more than $10,000, I think, is
2:00:18
it 10,000 Or more than 10,000? I believe it's 10,000. Or more
2:00:23
than you have to declare that you have to say, Yeah, I'm
2:00:25
trying oh my god, I got 10 A cut in geez, man. And we did he, she
2:00:29
had
2:00:29
Unknown: $10,000 in cash on her as one does. And she does and
2:00:36
when I said well, you can just give me some give Andre, some
2:00:39
you know, her inner circle, and we'll give it back to you
2:00:41
because I don't believe in paying for your own money. Yeah,
2:00:43
I said no one will know she'll goes, she said, but I'll know.
2:00:47
She's,
2:00:48
Adam Curry: she's honest, this is this is Gail, letting you
2:00:50
know, that whatever, Oprah's got coming next. She's honest. It's
2:00:54
not a money grab. It's not a conflict of interest. She's
2:00:57
coming in with something big. It's not a money grab. It's not
2:01:01
she's honest. She reports her money or
2:01:03
Unknown: that? Yes, I have $10,000. I declared it, of
2:01:06
course. And I just and I am a law abiding citizen, I would
2:01:09
like to say but it just, it just strikes me that even when no one
2:01:13
is watching, she does, right. So once again, to me, this is
2:01:16
evidence for that for the museum. Of
2:01:20
Adam Curry: course, no, this is evidence that something is
2:01:23
coming that is completely off the charts. When it comes to
2:01:28
conflict of interest, and she's she's going to do something with
2:01:31
some weight loss drug. And it's big. It's big. And just so you
2:01:36
know, Oprah's honest, she is honest. Never doubt her honesty.
2:01:44
John C Dvorak: Oh, you have nothing to predict. I do want to
2:01:46
say something about the first clip you played, which was the
2:01:49
little bitty mention of the fact that if you start up on ozempic
2:01:54
You have to take it for the rest of your life.
2:01:57
Unknown: It's just to be on it for your entire life. They
2:02:01
prescribe it with that in mind
2:02:03
for faith and and our parents. They were worth a shot. Where do
2:02:08
you give yourself I give
2:02:09
myself the shot in my stomach. I don't even like to hear the
2:02:14
clip. It's done. Well, you just tell me what you're on and how
2:02:17
long you've been on.
2:02:18
I've been on Manjaro since May ozempic. Since July, whatever
2:02:25
she knows me. He's been on he's no he switches. He goes between
2:02:30
Manjaro and Fitch.
2:02:32
They're all in a class of drugs called GLP. One receptor
2:02:36
agonists.
2:02:37
Adam Curry: You can switch it's all good. What you never hear is
2:02:41
you've got to stop eating the crap that you're eating. Please
2:02:45
stop eating crap. They never mentioned that. Maybe that'll be
2:02:49
Oprah's next big thing. Here's a weight loss drug but stop eating
2:02:54
crap. By the way we got I do
2:02:56
John C Dvorak: have a prediction. Okay, bottles are
2:02:59
opening up. It's a chain of hamburger stands.
2:03:03
Adam Curry: It's as good as any. We got a lot of notes from
2:03:06
people about the antidepressant off label prescription of SSRIs
2:03:12
and antidepressants. Yes, we did. I have I can share a couple
2:03:18
of them briefly. All anonymous Of course your comment about
2:03:24
antidepressants being prescribed for other uses amongst youth at
2:03:28
32 which I don't know if it's still count as youth while you
2:03:30
do to me. In January I was prescribed with an
2:03:32
antidepressant me tripped Alene along with a non steroidal anti
2:03:38
inflammatory and a muscle relaxant by a physician at the
2:03:41
Clinic at the University where I'm doing my PhD. I was
2:03:44
scandalized when I learned that amitriptyline is an
2:03:48
antidepressant and that the physician prescribed it to me
2:03:51
without even telling me it was antidepressant. Almost took it
2:03:54
without looking it up. Thank God for your show. You're welcome.
2:03:59
Here's another one. Yes, some are used for pain management I
2:04:03
used I used one for a short time not knowing it was an
2:04:06
antidepressant. My wife said I was unbearable to be around
2:04:10
because it made me irrational at times. I quit it quickly. Then
2:04:15
we have a nurse boots on the ground. I've been a psychiatric
2:04:19
nurse for 17 years, we have no reason to doubt that peros
2:04:24
zechstein cerros that and flu exit team Prozac. We're famous
2:04:29
for igniting impulsive conditions when people started
2:04:32
killing others or themselves. I've seen a boy who killed his
2:04:36
disabled brother because he couldn't control himself. I've
2:04:39
seen a girl who he would have to watch constantly because
2:04:41
otherwise she would kill herself. This is a known side
2:04:45
effect. It is only in the first three weeks but it is legal.
2:04:50
About that. This is all known it's all known. Yeah,
2:04:54
John C Dvorak: it also makes your vote Democrat does you know
2:04:56
that part. You mentioned we mentioned that
2:05:00
Adam Curry: I think yes, I think that was the My wife said I was
2:05:04
unbearable and irrational I think that was
2:05:12
oh, we laugh but it's really quite sad.
2:05:15
John C Dvorak: It really is sad but we do laugh. We
2:05:18
Adam Curry: have to laugh about it. I mean if you can't laugh
2:05:20
about oh, we finally got the clip from although it's not that
2:05:24
spectacular from the Law and Order Vax party
2:05:27
John C Dvorak: from at least I would count six people yes six
2:05:31
Adam Curry: or seven people and hit 10 seconds is the only party
2:05:34
says it's a party there are people masks and people not
2:05:37
masking. There's a dude walking around with a syringe and here
2:05:40
we go.
2:05:43
John C Dvorak: So what are you into these days rich? And don't
2:05:46
say plastics, plastics, sir. Are you ready for your injection?
2:05:50
Adam Curry: There you go. Are you ready for your injection
2:05:52
sir? It was a little little anticlimactic. It
2:05:56
John C Dvorak: was it was not good. You had the guts to do
2:06:00
that. It was anticlimactic.
2:06:02
Adam Curry: But what it is is what it is.
2:06:05
John C Dvorak: I have an an apple bomb clip. She
2:06:09
Adam Curry: just wrote another article in The Atlantic I saw.
2:06:13
John C Dvorak: Oh, yeah. Well, she's a great staffer there now.
2:06:15
Adam Curry: Oh, well, she's a super elite. She She travels in
2:06:20
all the circles of spook
2:06:22
Unknown: and Applebaum writer for The Atlantic had this to say
2:06:25
about Donald Trump's strange acquiescence to Russia. Listen
2:06:31
to this, and then let's talk about it. Trump
2:06:33
has a lot of motives here. He
2:06:35
keeps very quiet about Russia and very quiet about Ukraine. He
2:06:39
knows that Russia is unpopular, and rightly so given the scenes
2:06:42
that we've just seen. He knows that Ukraine is still popular
2:06:45
polling shows Ukraine is popular in the United States, the cause
2:06:48
of helping Ukraine is supported by most Americans. There's a
2:06:52
majority in Congress for supporting Ukraine, the White
2:06:55
House supports Ukraine. And yet he has ulterior motives. And,
2:06:58
you know, we can, you know, I hear versions of them some to do
2:07:03
with oil, some to do with trading with Russia. Some may be
2:07:07
personal, maybe he thinks Putin will help him again, in his
2:07:10
election campaign.
2:07:14
But the point is, we have a leader of the United States
2:07:17
whose loyalties are not to the United States. They're not to
2:07:21
American national interests. They're not to America and
2:07:25
America's alliances,
2:07:26
defending Russia, instead of America's interests, and our
2:07:31
allies, or our interest should be automatically disqualifying,
2:07:35
but for some reason, in this current Republican Party, and in
2:07:39
this political environment, it's not even over it's not over not
2:07:43
even just overlooked. It's embraced. And so we really have
2:07:49
to do our part, this election cycle to make sure that someone
2:07:54
like Trump who has proven to be a traitor not only to our
2:08:00
country but to our democracy and now to our allies cannot win in
2:08:06
November
2:08:09
blue and you don't know where this thing news Why don't you
2:08:12
get your get fix?
2:08:16
Adam Curry: That's right, everybody. We can play all the
2:08:17
old jingles. I'm happy about that. Well, there's one other
2:08:21
presidential candidate who needs to be discussed briefly. Bobby
2:08:25
the OP. Now is he on the ballot in any I know he's on the ballot
2:08:29
in Utah can he can people keep asking me can I vote for him? I
2:08:34
John C Dvorak: think in deal in the presidential election, I
2:08:37
think he'll be on most ballot he
2:08:39
Adam Curry: will be on most ballots. Okay. Well, he he did
2:08:42
something on CNBC which I think makes him electable for a lot of
2:08:46
people. It was just he was it was actually pretty decent I
2:08:52
thought and I would like to share it it's only a minute and
2:08:54
a half Bobby the app on Bitcoin Bitcoin you said you
2:08:58
Unknown: you spoke at a conference you bought it you
2:08:59
bought something for your kids last year? You've more than
2:09:03
doubled your money if you're still holding Are you still
2:09:05
holding I've been like let's just have a little fun here to
2:09:06
end the SEC.
2:09:08
Adam Curry: Yeah, I'm still holding my kids are very, very
2:09:11
happy about it. We're what's bitcoins
2:09:14
Unknown: real role? There are members of Congress, both
2:09:18
parties I believe that think it should be banned. Yeah,
2:09:21
Adam Curry: I mean, they want to ban because they're being paid
2:09:26
by BlackRock and Morgan and all the big bank, globalist bank or
2:09:30
banking monopolies that are making money on inflation and
2:09:34
making money on by the Fed printing money and but American
2:09:39
people the American middle class is getting rolled and the off
2:09:44
ramp from that you know, from the money printing machine is
2:09:48
Bitcoin because it is hard currency. And we need to make it
2:09:54
transactionally available to the middle class. We need to make
2:09:58
sure that people want to have print Take themselves up against
2:10:01
inflation can have this but also that they have transactional
2:10:04
freedom at the government is not, you know, able now to
2:10:09
digitalize our currencies and like they did in in Canada. And
2:10:15
when the truckers disobey, you know, when the truckers
2:10:17
protested peacefully, their bank accounts were shut down. Well,
2:10:22
you couldn't pay their mortgages, they couldn't pay for
2:10:25
their children's education, the government could control their
2:10:28
speech by controlling their transactional freedom and you
2:10:32
know, transactional freedom is as important as freedom of
2:10:35
speech and you only get that from Bitcoin we're not going to
2:10:38
get that you know, as long as the government controls our
2:10:42
digitalized currency. All it needs to do now is join the
2:10:44
Libertarian Party.
2:10:47
John C Dvorak: A couple of things there one is not hard
2:10:49
currency hard currencies gold and silver. Well,
2:10:52
Adam Curry: I'm not gonna get in an argument with you about hard
2:10:56
currency it is hard currency. Okay, by that by definite wall
2:11:00
you said you started by definition. It is hard currency
2:11:04
it is hard okay, make
2:11:08
John C Dvorak: so here Oh, that's interesting. I like that
2:11:10
little twist. Hard to make that's what so is a pumpkin pie
2:11:15
then what is harder sometimes hard to make? Especially got an
2:11:19
oven
2:11:20
Adam Curry: John's new pumpkin coin everybody so
2:11:23
John C Dvorak: now so let's go to let's go to the downside of
2:11:28
this which you didn't even think about okay, I'm gonna try to
2:11:32
seek this guy. They can do it by slamming Bitcoin and dropping it
2:11:36
back down to 10,000 or who knows what and blame him for the loss
2:11:41
and say look at this guy's he recommended everyone go into
2:11:45
Bitcoin and liquid look what happened? I would be very afraid
2:11:49
if I was if I was supporting Kennedy and Bitcoin at this
2:11:54
point after what he did because they somebody's out to get
2:11:58
Kennedy.
2:11:59
Adam Curry: I love this that he's positive about Bitcoin. I
2:12:02
really do. But you know, I'm just I'm pro Bitcoin.
2:12:05
John C Dvorak: Well, you're happy as a clam because Bitcoin
2:12:07
is up to 62,000 or something like that. So it was back to its
2:12:10
Adam Curry: highs. Yes. And I believe it will go much higher.
2:12:14
As you know, of
2:12:14
John C Dvorak: course you do. You wouldn't be in it if you
2:12:16
didn't think that way. That's right.
2:12:20
Adam Curry: Bobby The up has a shot now. I think he has a shot
2:12:25
I think I think I think it's a good move. What else is he going
2:12:28
to do? Who else is he going to appeal to?
2:12:32
John C Dvorak: I don't know they really cordoned him off. I mean
2:12:34
talking about I got a guy with a lot of good messages that's been
2:12:37
marginalized. We mean he should have been running against Biden
2:12:43
the Democratic Party should be ashamed
2:12:45
Adam Curry: they should be absolutely they completely
2:12:47
screwed him cut him out of the deal and and won't give him any
2:12:51
protection to boot.
2:12:53
John C Dvorak: Which is really scummy thing he's got scumbags
2:12:58
so maybe
2:12:58
Adam Curry: just call him Bitcoin Bobby from now on maybe
2:13:00
that's a better a better term Bitcoin Bobby. Because it
2:13:05
defines him now that for me RFK Jr. is now Bitcoin Bobby. We
2:13:11
have been on this very podcast which does not feature video.
2:13:16
Which which? That way you know that we're the real deal. We
2:13:21
have been talking about pig butchering for months.
2:13:25
Unknown: months
2:13:28
Adam Curry: Do you remember our pig butchering conversations?
2:13:31
No. Yes. Pig butcher. Yes. We even took a call live on the on
2:13:36
the show. We did these are the text messages that come in Hi,
2:13:40
I'm this hot Asian chick. How you doing? What? Are you going
2:13:44
to pick me up? Are we playing tennis today? You're supposed to
2:13:47
say what what? And then they get you into some phony crypto scam.
2:13:54
What actually they get you to a website where you're buying
2:13:58
Bitcoin Believe it or not. And and it's off the charts and
2:14:01
you're winning and if it's not Bitcoin, some other coin, and
2:14:05
it's just a front and they've taken all your money. And they
2:14:09
do it for months and months and months. Well, they finally have
2:14:14
have figured out where this is happening. It's
2:14:17
John C Dvorak: how long does it take to find any of these online
2:14:20
scammers? Oh,
2:14:21
Adam Curry: well, there's a whole there's I'm sorry. Oh,
2:14:23
wait, a
2:14:23
John C Dvorak: lot of them are over the phone. I get phone
2:14:25
calls all the time a couple of times a day with some bogus you
2:14:30
know, offer usually to take 50 I get 50% off on my PGD Bill, I'm
2:14:35
from pg&e the purchasers they're not from PG anything barely
2:14:38
speak English.
2:14:39
Adam Curry: No, but this is different. This does not they're
2:14:41
no calls this starts with you're not annoying. No,
2:14:43
John C Dvorak: I'm I'm just saying how long does it take?
2:14:45
Yeah, to catch these criminals?
2:14:48
Adam Curry: Well, they were uncatchable because they were in
2:14:50
scam factories. Yeah, scam factories.
2:14:55
Unknown: Now last month, the DW investigation revealed
2:14:58
widespread human rights abuse. is at what are being called scam
2:15:02
factories on the Myanmar Thai border 1000s of human
2:15:06
trafficking victims are trapped in large compounds where they're
2:15:10
forced to take part in online cryptocurrency scams that target
2:15:14
people in Europe, the US and China. Now, if they refuse,
2:15:18
they're tortured, allegedly or sold to other factories. Now,
2:15:22
China, Thailand and Myanmar have rescued more than 1000 people.
2:15:27
And I just wanted to clarify, so we're talking about scam
2:15:30
factories here. So these are places where people are forced
2:15:35
to to get on the phone and trick people into doing something they
2:15:38
don't want to do. Can you just find out exactly
2:15:40
so why we are calling them victims is because these people
2:15:44
who are forced to do these drugs are being trafficked into these
2:15:48
compounds in Myanmar and other countries. And they have been
2:15:54
trained and forced to reach out to people in Europe in the US in
2:15:59
China to build up a relationship and then to persuade them to
2:16:02
invest mostly in cryptocurrency fake websites, and then they're
2:16:08
leaving them with and the people lost a lot of money, which was
2:16:13
subsequent bachelor, really
2:16:15
Adam Curry: big butchering. There it is. And so sadly, these
2:16:20
these are slaves. So you know, whenever we go like, hey, you
2:16:24
know, I'm not gonna get the one of those text messages. Like,
2:16:27
oh, I recognize your number, but I don't have you my phonebook.
2:16:30
Who are you? And you know, I say hey, I don't I'm not interested
2:16:34
in your, in your scam, your crypto scam, and they get really
2:16:38
mad at you and start calling you names. But that's now now I feel
2:16:41
bad because they're their slaves. You almost want to help
2:16:45
them out. 1000s They have pictures these are these are
2:16:49
huge compounds.
2:16:52
John C Dvorak: Who dreams up these disabilities? You're good
2:16:54
at management.
2:16:55
Adam Curry: Definitely. Quick update on the chlor chloro aquat
2:17:02
that has been found in oat products like Cheerios and
2:17:07
little report of course you get no follow up from the M five M.
2:17:11
Little report here. Oat Miller's recommended not to use
2:17:15
manipulator. So apparently this a quorum aquat just exactly as
2:17:20
our producer said we're using this product called manipulator
2:17:25
on oats and that's what was getting it into our food supply.
2:17:33
Who was watching these people who was watching the stuff that
2:17:37
was put on the market.
2:17:39
John C Dvorak: Now they're too busy pushing the vaccine.
2:17:41
Exactly. Exactly.
2:17:44
Adam Curry: Your no agenda show was watching out for you. That's
2:17:47
who's looking out for you. Yeah, yeah. A quick rest in peace for
2:17:54
Bob Heil. Yeah, kilo Nyko. India Delta. Yes. I mean, back in the
2:17:59
day are the first mics we all use for our podcasts was the
2:18:03
Heil pr 40. But I would say we do a disservice by saying that
2:18:08
Bob's supplied the ham radio industry and the podcast
2:18:12
industry. I mean, he did entire sound systems for Grateful Dead
2:18:16
The Who? Joe Walsh. Friend Frampton.
2:18:21
John C Dvorak: We had a interview with him back and show
2:18:24
I think 728 724 Something like that. Oh,
2:18:27
Adam Curry: did we put that on the air? We put the interview on
2:18:29
the on the air.
2:18:31
John C Dvorak: Glad you're keeping up.
2:18:32
Adam Curry: I can't remember. I can't remember. Did we? Yeah.
2:18:36
John C Dvorak: Oh, it was in the archives
2:18:38
Adam Curry: that we did we do a special with Bob or was it just
2:18:42
it was
2:18:42
John C Dvorak: one of those filler shows that I do a couple
2:18:44
of interviews. I didn't when was Scully and Heil. And that day?
2:18:47
Adam Curry: Oh, all right. scaly. Oh, my it was I forgot
2:18:51
about that one in the
2:18:52
John C Dvorak: 700. So it was so long ago, you'd easily forget.
2:18:57
Adam Curry: Wow, well, Bob, he was young too. What was he? He
2:19:00
was
2:19:01
Unknown: 82 I

Adam Curry: think that's not very old or 8383 83
2:19:08

2:19:10
Adam Curry: never met him but I liked his product and I still
2:19:13
use the Tina uses the the Heil PR 40 Sounds good for her voice.
2:19:18
Thank you. It's got a good it's got a good range. Yeah, very
2:19:21
good range. Thank you to all the producers who also calculated
2:19:24
that no way. Was there ever a Leap Day pod pa show day? For no
2:19:29
agenda? Wow. The last I know, we got great people.
2:19:33
John C Dvorak: We got great nerds out there. Hey, when we
2:19:35
think when we take a look at
2:19:37
Adam Curry: the last time. A leap year was on a show day was
2:19:43
2004. That was a Sunday show. Of course we didn't have the show
2:19:46
in 2004. The next time it will happen. So the next you get
2:19:50
ready, put it in your calendar 2033 3020 33
2:19:57
John C Dvorak: That's the next magic number.
2:19:59
Adam Curry: Yes, then Next time and leap year will happen on a
2:20:02
show day. Wow. And I think we should we should hold up for it.
2:20:06
John C Dvorak: Okay, that'd be a special show we'll have to get a
2:20:08
special donation amount I'm already working on a kind of a
2:20:14
gimmick
2:20:14
Adam Curry: with inflation at that point it'll be dead $20,000
2:20:23
With that I'd like to thank you for your courage in the morning
2:20:26
to you the man who put the seat in the new comers ladies
2:20:28
gentlemen say hello to my friend on the other end one only Mr.
2:20:31
Johnson
2:20:36
John C Dvorak: the number one in your industry and currently in
2:20:38
the morning shift seabass and ground feed near subs in the
2:20:40
water.
2:20:44
Adam Curry: And in the morning to the trolls and the troll room
2:20:46
Hold on a second trolls me count.
2:20:53
Well, okay, good news. Last Sunday was 20 103. Trolls
2:20:59
listening live were up by 721 10. This is going in the
2:21:03
right direction, we've got a positive trend, a positive troll
2:21:07
trend, I'm liking that a lot trolls, which you can join a
2:21:10
troll room.io. Now you don't want to know people, you may
2:21:14
want to hang around. Because a lot of fun stuff happens in this
2:21:17
portion of the show. All kinds of things pop up that are
2:21:20
unexpected. So I'm just saying. And if you'd like good news, you
2:21:24
definitely want to hang around. Now you can join the trolls any
2:21:28
Thursday or Sunday, you actually want to join troll room.io A
2:21:32
couple hours early. We have the two hour blue show on before
2:21:35
Darren O'Neil who does two hours before we go live, it's actually
2:21:40
24/7 on no agenda stream.com which you can get a troll
2:21:44
room.io Or you can also get and I'm going to promote a new
2:21:48
modern podcast app pod verse, which also alert you when we go
2:21:53
live it has the live stream.
2:21:55
John C Dvorak: Isn't that the one you did last show I
2:21:57
Adam Curry: did fountain on the last show fountain. Today I'm
2:22:00
doing pod verse, there's 16 of them so you can count them all.
2:22:04
And lick them all. Collect them all, you should collect them
2:22:07
all. And what you want to do is you want to support these small
2:22:10
podcasts. That's because they are truly the only avenue left
2:22:14
for freedom of speech. It's not a platform. Maybe one day we'll
2:22:18
get blogs to come back, but seems unlikely at the moment.
2:22:22
But when it comes to freedom of speech, your podcast app is very
2:22:26
important. And it is independent. It is an
2:22:29
independent index that powers it. It's not connected to
2:22:32
anything Silicon Valley. And you can import all your existing
2:22:35
podcasts and you get all the 27 new features, which includes
2:22:40
updating within 90 seconds of publishing of this podcast, you
2:22:46
will be alerted in your podcast app that alone should make you
2:22:49
say hey, I want that I want to be alerted immediately. We are a
2:22:56
value for value podcast. Which I'm proud to say this has become
2:23:02
a term that is being used everywhere now. People don't
2:23:06
even know where it comes from, which I'm I'm kind of proud of
2:23:09
that. I hear people talking about value for value on noster
2:23:14
value for value in the beef industry. At least in the
2:23:18
independent beef industry. People are using this term and
2:23:21
we coined it then we've been using the the concept for 16
2:23:25
years, which excludes creepy corporate money. It excludes
2:23:30
commercials, it excludes levels and tote bags and and, and
2:23:36
subscriptions and all kinds of things that yet no, it's we
2:23:41
don't price it for you, whatever this podcast is worth to you. We
2:23:44
asked you to put that into a number and send that back to us.
2:23:48
But it's not just that it's time talent and treasure. So you can
2:23:51
help us in many different ways. Look at the boots on the ground
2:23:54
will receive and listen to some of the clips that have been
2:23:57
found like so many X six, seven people go through the trouble of
2:24:02
finding the VAX party clip night it didn't pay off the way he
2:24:05
wanted to. But it's still it's a contribution that we appreciate.
2:24:08
We don't have listeners, we don't have an audience. We have
2:24:11
producers and it is your job to return the value with time
2:24:14
talent or treasure. And people who do that constantly are the
2:24:19
no agenda artists they really do a good job. And we can only
2:24:22
choose one of course for each show. We do that by going to no
2:24:27
agenda art generator.com Thank you, sir. pulka tour for setting
2:24:30
that up for us in the new version, which has been around
2:24:33
for well over a decade. And we need to thank the artists who we
2:24:37
chose for the last episode. This was mountain j which I think is
2:24:42
actually lady mountain j because we've misgendered mountain J You
2:24:45
know, we we've we've misgendered mountain Jay several times. And
2:24:52
you know I think we both looked at this and went okay AI clearly
2:24:56
but it was kind of funny. Get the frog leaping over the brown
2:25:01
paper bag. We had a sandwich. And it was it was watercolor. It
2:25:06
was a watercolor. Prompt. I'm sure the prompt was frog jumping
2:25:10
over brown brown bag lunch watercolor. So thank you for all
2:25:17
that effort. Mountain J.
2:25:19
John C Dvorak: Follow one thing I liked the most, which you
2:25:22
nixed away. Men dream with extreme prejudice.
2:25:27
Adam Curry: And which one was that?
2:25:28
John C Dvorak: The dirty Jersey whore Texas is burning clip.
2:25:31
Yes. I did. And I said there's an art that that's a nice piece.
2:25:36
It's a probably it's a pretty it's stunning. It sticks out
2:25:39
like a sore thumb. And you said Not on my watch. Exactly. Never
2:25:45
going to accept this too soon. People in Texas are suffering
2:25:49
and they're mocking it and you went on and on and on. I was
2:25:51
like, okay, okay. Okay.
2:25:53
Adam Curry: We got a note from Nicole. And she says, I know
2:25:58
this won't be run on the show. Well, there you go. boots on the
2:26:01
ground report from my grandmother and my uncle's
2:26:03
houses were both burned completely to the ground. In
2:26:07
Stinnett, Texas she had her home for 60 plus years. Everyone's
2:26:11
okay and they are taken care of and have a home for now. Just a
2:26:14
little comment that this exact same thing happened last year
2:26:17
and my grandma was evacuated. Just this time. It started the
2:26:21
exact same spot this is a yearly thing up here. This time the
2:26:25
winds were just too intense. So please stop with the lasers from
2:26:29
Sky stop with
2:26:32
John C Dvorak: that dreams that stuff up now condemning our
2:26:35
listeners. Oh,
2:26:36
Adam Curry: because Pete Not here. Even in Texas. Oh, this is
2:26:40
just like the Maui fires. No, no, I want to remind everybody
2:26:43
how the Maui fire started which we'll never we'll never hear the
2:26:46
truth. The Maui fire started when the power lines went down.
2:26:50
The power company turned off the power but they were huge
2:26:53
generators for the hotels that had been jacked back into the
2:26:57
grid and they reactivated those lines that were down we have
2:27:01
this on good authority from people who've seen the logs from
2:27:05
the power companies and that there were surges through the
2:27:07
lines that were down that restarted the fire after the
2:27:10
fire department already left. And this and this in Texas this
2:27:14
just happens and no painting your roof blue will not stop the
2:27:20
eye in the sky from zapping you when they do it for real. That
2:27:23
thing that that drives me nuts Oprah had her house or roof
2:27:27
painted blue that's why they didn't burn her house. It can
2:27:33
seriously
2:27:35
John C Dvorak: Yeah, I heard that too
2:27:36
Adam Curry: much. What else did we look out here? You'd like
2:27:40
that was it pretty much now you'd like to count in the drive
2:27:43
thru which I asked if you were on dry does
2:27:45
John C Dvorak: kinda like that I also like brown bag at the
2:27:48
network's piece with In and Out Burger logo but and you'd like
2:27:52
to frog jumping out of the bag was just too silly looking and
2:27:55
well done by whatever art generated was being used. Yeah,
2:28:00
it was really just well done. I think it was cute and funny.
2:28:04
Adam Curry: What I think that when when you use a an AI it
2:28:08
will be helpful to us if you told us which one you used just
2:28:12
so we can know
2:28:13
John C Dvorak: where are they going to put that into where how
2:28:15
are they going to let us know
2:28:17
Adam Curry: in the title you can put it in the title
2:28:21
John C Dvorak: Yeah, I guess you could I just like to I mean
2:28:23
Adam Curry: I'm interested
2:28:24
John C Dvorak: which now when you changed it I had why I have
2:28:28
to because it's
2:28:29
Adam Curry: all AI and everyone's doing ai i mean it's
2:28:32
easier mountain Jay was literally on Mastodon talking
2:28:35
about how she had to change the prompt 100 times to get the
2:28:38
desired results I mean Okay, that's fine but I just like to
2:28:42
John C Dvorak: know I work you can do it by hand some people
2:28:44
some people scare monger I believe uses very little AI I
2:28:47
think he does one so I just like you know I think sometimes can
2:28:51
be just as fast doing it by hand if you're good as prompt
2:28:56
engineering.
2:28:59
Adam Curry: Which I now have a name for prompt to jockey PJs.
2:29:06
John C Dvorak: Like that prompt jockey
2:29:07
Adam Curry: jockey pump prompt jockeys. I just I'm interested
2:29:10
because we have to give into it. AI is clearly
2:29:14
John C Dvorak: who's going to have to but we did already have
2:29:16
two people are
2:29:17
Adam Curry: using me if two artists are using AI that's just
2:29:20
the bottom line this
2:29:22
John C Dvorak: we don't have to We just could get no art. There
2:29:25
Adam Curry: you go. We have to we have to. We have to there's
2:29:30
no way around it. We already did longer go away around it. Thank
2:29:34
you very much mountain James.
2:29:35
John C Dvorak: The curious thing it was once comic strip blogger
2:29:38
who started the whole phenomenon when he was doing it solo and
2:29:42
producing good pieces. You are dead set against all AI art. But
2:29:47
once everyone else started using it was okay. So you really do
2:29:51
hate comic strip blogger.
2:29:53
Adam Curry: Well doesn't everybody. Yeah, I guess. Now
2:29:57
he's kind of, he's gonna send a note to Aaron or please blah
2:30:00
Adam curry from all Mastodon he said horrible things to me. He's
2:30:05
now he's the guy that saying you better get a new job because AGI
2:30:09
is going to take it within a year.
2:30:12
John C Dvorak: AGI is going nowhere fast. Not AGI is going
2:30:16
to be the end of it. None
2:30:18
Adam Curry: of this stuff is the only thing is really working is
2:30:20
audio video and an images. Is this some humor? Images
2:30:27
John C Dvorak: are kicking ass. Yeah, images
2:30:29
Adam Curry: are great. But art Yeah, do you still want to
2:30:31
license our content to one of these LLM bakeries?
2:30:37
John C Dvorak: To me I don't think it's a bad idea if we get
2:30:39
some money.
2:30:42
Adam Curry: Any money?
2:30:44
John C Dvorak: pays us? Yeah, of course. There's
2:30:47
Adam Curry: no one cares.
2:30:48
John C Dvorak: You never know that we have so much good three
2:30:49
hours for like years, 16 years and material about public
2:30:54
advanced current, current affairs. Everything in between
2:30:57
16 years of content is a lot of it has already been moved to
2:31:03
output. Normal output you can read it. I think it'd be great
2:31:08
if somebody offered us some money.
2:31:10
Adam Curry: Well, no one's offering so far. Well, we're
2:31:13
just at the beginning of this. They're given it to read it for
2:31:16
free read it's cleaning up we're not getting anything. Yeah,
2:31:20
believe read it's gonna read
2:31:21
John C Dvorak: it's kind of cleaning up but then once they
2:31:23
go public, and they get their show in? I mean, it's gonna be
2:31:26
one hit of money. And then then what?
2:31:29
Adam Curry: Yeah, what does Reddit have a business model? Do
2:31:31
they make
2:31:32
John C Dvorak: it I know of Yeah, it annoy people see you if
2:31:34
you can get anything from them. They have model.
2:31:43
Adam Curry: Thank you very much to mountain j, we appreciate it.
2:31:47
We really appreciate you and all of the artists who participated
2:31:50
in our value for value program. And now let's thank some of our
2:31:55
executive and Associate Executive producers. Now here's
2:31:57
how this works. We'd like to thank everybody who returned
2:32:01
value in the amount of $50 or more, and the top so that's 300.
2:32:06
Plus, you also get a credit as an executive producer, which is
2:32:10
just that's exactly how Hollywood works. So you can use
2:32:14
that credit to impress your friends, potential mates. You
2:32:19
can put it on your LinkedIn, put it in your your resume, you can
2:32:23
also open up if you don't have one, an IMDB profile, and to
2:32:28
prove it like a baby. Look at me. I'm an executive producer,
2:32:31
between two and 300, Associate Executive Producer. And of
2:32:34
course everybody's a producer no matter what you do to return the
2:32:38
value to the show. And we love doing it. We're doing it for 60
2:32:41
We're in our 16th year 1678 What are you 16 years now? 16 year?
2:32:46

2:33:20
karma. Okay, so we have all that I can have all that lined up
2:33:24
good. In the morning, John. There's been a lot of boob talk
2:33:28
as of late and I felt this was my cue to chime in. After losing
2:33:32
over half of my sweater puppies to stop breast cancer. I say let
2:33:36
them fly. Be proud of your ladies. Ladies. Men just stare
2:33:40
because they're jealous if they had boobs or be no war because
2:33:43
they would all be at home playing with them. I love a
2:33:48
humorous woman. Us women are the only ones in the world that can
2:33:52
handle this type of responsibility. Also, I want to
2:33:54
answer a question, Sir Kevin, Duke of Luna lover of American
2:33:57
boobs asked yes, they can put squeaky toys in them. I asked my
2:34:01
plastic surgeon but I'm an avid runner. I did not think it would
2:34:04
be appropriate running across the finish line squeaking. Not
2:34:07
to mention the pack of dogs I would have chasing me. You too
2:34:10
are absolutely wonderful. I look forward to the podcast twice a
2:34:13
week. I don't know if there's anyone. I don't know if there's
2:34:17
anyone who could replace either one of you keep up the good work
2:34:20

opening the door and was met by a family. It was a mother, a
2:58:40
father and a daughter, probably like teenage age. And they were
2:58:47
screaming banging on the doors. And as the door opened,
2:58:53
maybe about a quarter of the way. They handed me a lifeless,
2:58:58
baby. He says
2:59:00
since the parents could not speak English, their eldest
2:59:02
daughter had to act as a translator. And once the baby
2:59:05
was placed in his hands, his training instantly kicked in,
2:59:09
I realized that the child was not breathing. It did have a
2:59:13
pulse. The baby did have a pulse. And I immediately went
2:59:18
into what we call back blows to try to dislodge whatever was
2:59:23
obstructing the baby's airway. Because that's the most
2:59:26
important thing. Once we got the airway back, I was able to clear
2:59:32
the airway security airway, and shortly thereafter I felt her
2:59:37
take a breath in my my left hand.
2:59:40
Philip says they immediately gave the infant oxygen and
2:59:43
called the ambulance. Captain Carl Griffin says he is proud of
2:59:47
how the situation was handled and happy they were able to save
2:59:50
a life,
2:59:51
something like this. I think it was great because that family
2:59:56
came to the right place and came to the right people. And because
