0:07 Kimo Nation media assassination episode 1873.

0:10 This is no agenda.

0:12 Breaking! Nobody knows anything.

0:16 And we are broadcasting live from the heart of the Texas Hill Country

0:20 here in FEMA region number six.

0:22 In the morning, everybody, I'm Adam Curry.

0:24 And from Refinery Row, where we're wondering

0:27 what's the fuss about the TV show Euphoria?

0:30 I'm John C. Dvorak.

0:31 It's Crackpot and Buzzkill in the morning.

0:34 Okay, I'll bite.

0:37 The TV show Euphoria.

0:38 I don't think I've even heard of this.

0:40 Of course not.

0:41 Why would you keep up with what's going on with Gen Z?

0:44 What is the show?

0:47 I may have heard about it, but what is the show about?

0:49 About Gen Z.

0:51 I don't know what it's about.

0:52 I haven't never seen it.

0:53 Okay.

0:54 It's supposed to be a big deal.

0:56 In fact, here's this BBC headline.

0:59 headline breaking almost rage bait has euphoria gone from defining gen z to dividing them with a

1:06 picture of sydney sweeney uh as as the teaser i don't know man we just started watching uh

1:13 dutton ranch so that's what we're watching i don't even okay oh that's another that's another

1:20 taylor sheridan uh that's the guy taylor sheridan does you know uh landman uh yellowstone all these

1:28 cowboy show. It's pretty good.

1:30 Dutton Ranch is good.

1:31 Can you just stick to one of them?

1:34 Well, no. We finished all of the other ones.

1:36 What are you talking about?

1:37 Is Landman done?

1:38 The most recent season is done,

1:42 yeah.

1:42 Why isn't he working on another season?

1:45 Well, I'm sure he is.

1:47 How many shows can this guy do at once

1:50 and be good at it?

1:51 You know, this is what showrunners

1:53 do. When you're hot, you gotta

1:55 do it. You gotta just keep pumping them out,

1:57 man pumping them out and then there was madison was it madison count madison i think with kurt

2:03 russell and uh forget her name blondie blondie yeah another good show there's lots of good shows

2:13 by taylor sheridan yeah it's like uh it's like the guy darren what is his name that who did the

2:20 beverly hills 90210 darren o'neill darren o'neill that's right famous from beverly hills 90210 and

2:28 for a while he was doing all the shows and then he then he did the the new uh was it the new

2:35 series of sex in the city and it was horrible you know he tried to rekindle that old spark that he

2:41 had i don't know hey you know what nobody cares i think literally nobody cares anymore about good

2:48 tv shows we might watch and we might not it's not like it used to be not like the good old days

2:53 where you'd be like hey did you see friends last night it was awesome

2:57 yes because we're only three channels pretty much so i am this so much so i'm looking at the

3:07 at x this morning and you think that paris is burning down and and you know and there's all

3:14 Because they won a soccer match.

3:16 So is that what it is?

3:18 Yeah, the Saint-Germain team won the big cup, the club cup.

3:26 And there's a first time that any team except Real Madrid has ever won it two years in a row.

3:31 And the French have gone nuts.

3:33 So the way that plays out on X is immigrants torching businesses, looting stores.

3:39 Oh, it's a celebration of the soccer team.

3:42 Which may also be true.

3:44 yeah well yes but that could also be a celebration of the that's that's hilarious because that you

3:50 don't hear anything about the the football football match you only do if you listen to the

3:55 bbc or the any of them that's my point though people are you know you look at x go like oh

4:02 the muslims the desk burning it up i will say pretty bad i will say we watched the last season

4:10 in the last episode of Hacks.

4:11 I don't think you'll like it

4:12 with Jean Smart,

4:13 where she's a comedian.

4:14 I told you to watch it

4:16 and you probably hated it.

4:16 I watched the beginning,

4:17 the first season I watched,

4:19 I thought it had some elements

4:20 that were good,

4:21 but it was unrealistic.

4:22 Well, hello.

4:23 And so the very last one,

4:25 the very last,

4:26 like the series closer.

4:28 Let me guess.

4:29 She gets shot?

4:31 Oh, no.

4:32 By an immigrant.

4:33 No, but they go to Paris

4:35 and Tina and I go like,

4:37 this is unrealistic.

4:38 Where are the Muslims?

4:40 X, that's like whenever you see a show on this London, like, no, no, I'm not seeing it.

4:45 I'm not seeing it.

4:46 London's loaded.

4:49 So this thing was trending on X, and it was one of those clips where I'm like, I got to go find a longer version of this.

4:59 So the way this was played is Mike Johnson, Speaker of the House, wants more money for Congress.

5:07 They want a pay raise, which was not even the issue at all.

5:12 So that kind of like, oh, I hadn't heard about that.

5:14 Yeah, well, I saw that.

5:16 It wasn't actually what he was pushing for, but okay.

5:18 No, and so what it was.

5:20 What he was pushing for is more stock trading.

5:22 That's exactly the way you take it if you listen to the clip.

5:25 Here it is.

5:26 Well, look, you know, the salary of Congress has been frozen since 2009.

5:30 You know, when you adjust for inflation, a member of Congress today is making 31% less than they made in that year.

5:36 It goes down every year. And over time, if you stay on this trajectory, you're going to have less qualified people who are willing to make the extreme sacrifice to run for Congress.

5:46 I mean, it's just people just make a reasonable decision as a family on whether or not they can come and move to Washington, have a residence here, residence at home and do all the things that are required.

5:54 So the counter argument is, and I have some sympathy, look, at least let them, like, engage in some stock trading so that they can continue to, you know, take care of their family.

6:06 So, I had the same response you did.

6:09 Yeah, that's the first thing you'd think.

6:11 Yeah, and of course, the first clue is this is posted by the House Democrats account.

6:16 So, I'm like, oh, okay, let me go find the full clip.

6:20 Let me see what he actually said.

6:21 In fact, he is for a ban on insider trading.

6:27 Oh, that's cool.

6:27 Here it is.

6:28 To tell you my honest opinion on it, I mean, I'm in favor of that because I don't think we should have any appearance of impropriety here.

6:33 But the other side of it, some people say, well, look.

6:37 You see how they cut that bit off at the beginning?

6:40 I'm in favor of the ban on stock trading.

6:43 And they cut that off and then it turns into.

6:46 Oh, gee, that's a shocker to me.

6:48 I'm glad you uncovered this scandal.

6:52 Well, so here's another one.

6:54 And this has been running for like a week and a half.

6:59 And I want to ask you a question after we listen to this.

7:02 There's all kinds of fraud being, fraud, ever fraud, ever fraud is everywhere, especially the Somalians and the Muslims.

7:12 And so there's an audit across 50 states.

7:16 Now, I'm going to see, let's see if you pick up on the same thing that I did when you hear this clip.

7:21 Now, we'll audit all 50 American states looking for potentially massive fraud in the billing of autism treatment.

7:30 This is happening now amid a recent explosion in spending on autism services.

7:34 North Carolina alone apparently saw an 11,000 percent increase in the last four years.

7:42 Why was that?

7:43 Good question for Alexandria Hoff live in D.C.

7:46 Alex, hello.

7:47 Good morning.

7:48 Hey, Billy, that is a good question, because according to that data coming out of North Carolina, the use of taxpayer-funded autism services is significantly outpacing the number of children being diagnosed.

7:58 So something's not right there, and it's not just in the Tar Heel State.

8:01 A recent analysis by the Cato Institute found that in five years, Medicaid billing has surged in every other state that makes their data public for money spent on ABA therapy.

8:11 It's Applied Behavior Analysis, that's what it's called.

8:14 For reference, Minnesota's ABA spending increased by about 51,000 percent since 2018.

8:21 We all know what happened there.

8:22 President Trump spoke on that yesterday.

8:23 So that was millions of dollars just being stolen.

8:28 Everybody had autism.

8:29 Everybody had autism.

8:31 They said it was incredible, actually.

8:35 And I really I mean, I've just seen some I see what they're doing.

8:40 You haven't seen anything yet.

8:43 So I listened to this, and I'm thinking, well, hold on a minute.

8:47 RFK Jr., the president, myself, everybody has been saying,

8:53 the studies show that everybody has autism.

8:56 One out of three boys.

8:58 I'm thinking this scam is much bigger than they're talking about here.

9:03 Perhaps the actual study of autism, of how many people have autism,

9:10 was the scam to begin with, an inside job before it even got to the Medicare

9:15 and all of this money that was going to autism treatment.

9:19 We've only heard, well, there was nobody with autism when I was a kid.

9:24 Now everybody has autism.

9:26 Is this much bigger?

9:29 I mean, doesn't anyone see the connection there between this thing that we've been told

9:33 for the past five years over and over and over again that every single kid has autism?

9:38 It's all because of the vaccines.

9:40 maybe some of that is overblown.

9:43 For the purposes of scamming the public out of their tax dollars?

9:48 Precisely.

9:49 I like the thesis.

9:52 I mean, what I'm missing is anyone else discussing the thesis.

9:57 It seems like a no-brainer.

9:59 Like, yeah, remember everybody had autism.

10:02 The president just said it.

10:03 Everybody's got autism.

10:04 That's what he said a year ago.

10:06 Everyone's got autism.

10:07 We've got to stop this.

10:09 But now there's too much autism treatment.

10:12 Something does not compute here.

10:15 Something is...

10:16 This is a lot.

10:17 I have a couple of things I wanted to talk about today, too, which is along these same lines.

10:22 Okay.

10:22 Things don't make sense.

10:25 And the one that's gotten into me, and I started looking into it, is the Freedom 250.

10:34 Oh, this is great.

10:38 So here, play this, play this. This is the BBC's report on this. Trump 250 concerts.

10:44 Donald Trump has announced he's considering cancelling a series of concerts celebrating

10:49 the 250th anniversary of the United States and replacing them with a single act, himself.

10:55 From Washington, here's Tom Simons.

10:58 In his post, Donald Trump described himself as the greatest president in history, the

11:04 goat and said he was capable of getting bigger audiences than Elvis in his prime. It was a

11:11 riposte to a series of music acts who've said they won't take part in the Freedom 250 celebrations,

11:17 including the funk and soul band The Commodores and the country singer Martina McBride. Donald

11:23 Trump said he was now looking at the feasibility of putting himself on stage in an America is back

11:29 rally in just four days time on wednesday in washington dc now before you comment i have the

11:36 nbc version of this which mentions a few more artists tonight with preps already underway for

11:42 an event celebrating america's 250th birthday on the national mall a new snag this will be a time

11:49 like you've never had in your lives america 250 six musical artists originally announced as

11:56 performers now dropping out many citing political concerns country singer martina mcbride writing

12:02 i was presented with an opportunity to perform at a non-partisan event but that turned out to

12:07 be misleading rapper young mc saying artists were never told about any political involvement

12:13 and poison frontman brett michaels writing it's evolved into something much more divisive than

12:18 I agreed to be part of. The event is organized by Freedom 250, a public-private partnership

12:25 launched by President Trump. We have a president that wants to celebrate 250 years of America

12:31 and that's exactly what we're doing and that's how it was sold to performers. And not everyone

12:37 is backing out. A representative for Vanilla Ice telling NBC News he is proud to help celebrate

12:42 america's 250th anniversary others still slated to perform include flo rida cnc music factory

12:50 and fab morvan of millie vanillie okay okay so i hear all these names you know back in the 90s

12:58 i was um had a top 30 hit list syndicated radio show and the way you got it on the way it works

13:06 You give them the show for free, they run it Sunday morning, and they get to sell three minutes of airtime, local airtime, and then I would sell six minutes of the rest of each hour on a national basis.

13:22 It was actually very lucrative, but the only way you could get the stations to take it was if I went—

13:27 It was a Byron Allen kind of deal.

13:29 Completely. It was lucrative, man. It was good.

13:33 I sold it to Reebok and to Pepsi.

13:35 In fact, I think it was Adam Curry's Pepsi top 30 hit.

13:39 I can't remember.

13:40 But the way to clear it is I'd have to go to all these different bad top 40 radio stations.

13:46 I've been to every single one of the 50 states.

13:48 And you've got to do their B91 Summer Jam.

13:51 And it was always, it was Milli Vanilli.

13:53 It was Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch.

13:56 It was all these Vanilla Ice.

13:57 It was all these track acts.

13:59 This is a track act concert.

14:01 Who cares?

14:03 I mean, the Commodores?

14:04 It's not like Lionel Richie's showing up with the Commodores anymore.

14:08 And then it's happening in four days from now?

14:11 No, it's not.

14:12 I got the schedule here.

14:14 I don't understand that.

14:15 Martina McBride was scheduled for June 25th.

14:17 That's not four days from now.

14:19 No, it's not.

14:19 These reports are all bull crap.

14:21 In fact, if Trump goes on and talks about America 250, that's different than Freedom 250.

14:27 Freedom 250 is a disaster waiting to happen.

14:32 It's idiotic.

14:33 What is it?

14:34 What is it?

14:34 Okay.

14:35 Well, here's the problem.

14:37 Just as a little background.

14:39 America 250 was put together by Obama.

14:42 Oh.

14:44 And it's still in play.

14:45 Yeah.

14:47 The honorary chairman is Obama and George Bush.

14:51 We've got competing 250s.

14:54 And so Trump, in January, came up with this Freedom 250 thing and put this bonehead, Silicon

15:01 Valley guy, and I want to hear

15:03 I'm just giving you an indication

15:06 of what a megalomaniac this guy

15:08 is. Who?

15:08 Keith Kratch.

15:11 So you have to go to KeithKratch.com

15:14 Oh, man.

15:15 Now, this guy ran Ariba,

15:18 DocuSign,

15:20 Angie's List.

15:22 He's a Silicon Valley hack.

15:24 And he's rich. He's loaded.

15:26 I think he's a big donor.

15:27 But if you go to KeithKratch.com

15:30 is it keith hold on k-e-i-t-h yeah k-o-k-r-a-t-c-h.com no i think it's c-r-a-k-r let me get it yeah

15:43 please keith k-r-a-c-h oh k-r-a-c-h keith krach okay who is this dude

15:51 oh founder and co-founder channel the krach institute for tech diplomacy

15:57 at Purdue. Okay, so if you look at

15:59 this guy's megalomaniac

16:01 website, nobody in their right

16:03 mind puts a personal site together

16:05 that looks like this.

16:06 This is great.

16:09 This is me everywhere.

16:11 I'm leadership.

16:12 You'd think he was from Bombay.

16:15 This is what Indian guys

16:17 do.

16:18 Oh no, I'm very important.

16:21 So they do it for their moms,

16:23 mostly, I'm told.

16:24 Mommy, come over from

16:27 mumbai i'll show you how i'm very famous president trump sorry for being racist everybody but i so

16:33 this guy yeah it's not racist so is this they're caucasians how can it be racist um caucasians with

16:41 melanin so uh so so let's look at this this this act now the first thing when i think of putting

16:49 together an america 250 thing what what do i think what comes to mind country when it comes to like

16:54 what kind of acts represent the country millie vanillie no of course not no so here's again he's

17:03 got this setup is martina mcbride uh whoever you know yeah cnw it's okay she's somebody but she

17:10 doesn't want to do it no by the way none of these people seem to have been contacted except for brett

17:14 michaels uh they just put their name on the cnc music factory guy who i think now says he's not

17:21 by the way cnc music factory i don't think the guy even sang on the record it's just a guy who

17:26 dances just like martin let me give you the list martina mcbride cnc music factory vanilla ice

17:31 these are all america 250 where is lee greenwood where is kid rock the kind of people that drop

17:38 like right they're not on this list that's what gave me the signal that this is bull crap yeah

17:43 and it's this guy this keith kratz guy running he was given the job this is a classic example

17:49 of trump picking the wrong guy yeah he's running this this freedom 250 thing into the ground it's

17:56 an embarrassment for the president who's got to back the guy up he's not going to get rid of him

18:01 because he's a big donor oh wait a minute oh hold on a second this concert so-called concert we're

18:08 talking about is part of the great american state fair which will be on the national mall yes that's

18:15 exactly the kind of acts who

18:17 are on the

18:19 fair circuit. The Westbury

18:21 Music Fair.

18:22 Losers.

18:24 Yeah, with no

18:27 original band. Well, Vanilla

18:29 Ice is very patriotic, though, I'll have to

18:31 say that. Yeah, well, he

18:33 wants to do it, but you know.

18:35 But where are the

18:37 real people

18:39 that Trump would pick? This is bull

18:41 crap. This entire Freedom

18:43 250 thing is a fiasco.

18:45 Yeah, they maybe have a fireworks display, but it's in competition with the other thing, and it seems to me to be just poorly executed, and this guy, this cratch character who doesn't seem likable, and he seems like an egomaniac, he's spread too thin.

19:06 If you look at his website, he's doing everything.

19:08 He's a professor.

19:10 He's a CEO.

19:11 He's this.

19:12 The thing that was, the Rededicate 250, that was actually quite good.

19:17 I watched a lot of that.

19:19 That was on May 17th, and that was a pretty good show.

19:25 And they had every, you know, of course, it's a Christian Bible-thumping thing, which is why I watched it.

19:32 Well, that's why you would like it.

19:33 Yeah, but it was also, the show was put together very well.

19:37 It was tight.

19:37 Yeah, but it was a bunch of Christian bands.

19:39 It wasn't Lee Greenwood.

19:42 I think he might have been there, actually.

19:44 Well, here's what's interesting.

19:45 So now I have an ABC report, and this talks about America 250th crosshairs.

19:52 So there's already this confusion between Freedom 250, America 250, and then America 250th.

19:59 There's a branding problem here.

20:01 Oh, definitely.

20:02 And this is where Cory Booker goes off.

20:05 And on this issue of the 250th anniversary of America, you had these performers that have canceled.

20:12 They didn't want to perform at the celebration on the mall.

20:16 And now Trump is saying he's going to turn it into celebration at the mall.

20:20 No, it's a fair.

20:22 It's a fairground.

20:24 A Make America Great Again rally where the entertainment's going to be Donald Trump.

20:28 What are you telling people?

20:31 What should be, how should this anniversary?

20:34 It's a huge moment in the country's history.

20:38 How should this be celebrated?

20:41 How do you prevent this from turning into simply a partisan affair?

20:45 Yeah, I mean, this is the problem with Trump.

20:49 He's a divider in chief.

20:51 No, please, get him off the stage.

20:55 It's not his intention, but reminding us what American history has always been about.

20:59 It's been about the power of the people being greater than the people in power.

21:03 That we're not a nation of kings, princes, or rulers, but of Americans who, when they see power being used unjustly, whether it's the labor movement, the abolitionist movement, the civil rights movement, the story of America is Americans standing up against authoritarian figures and making our democracy more robust.

21:21 This is one of those moments where we have a man that is unfortunately reminding us of the dangers of a democracy when you have an out-of-control president and what the, I think, education moment is.

21:33 It's the only way he's ultimately going to be stopped.

21:35 This is more people stand up and speak up.

21:38 He's not answering the question.

21:39 That's how we've advanced through crises before.

21:41 Listen, I heard the C&C Music Factory guy, who I also did dates with.

21:49 Everybody dance now.

21:53 100% lip sync.

21:57 Good dancing.

21:59 He has a little crew there.

22:03 People are going around calling up these artists saying, you know, this is a Trump thing.

22:08 This is not about America.

22:09 It's a Trump thing.

22:10 It's a Trump thing.

22:11 And these artists are like, well, I don't want to lose my track dates at the fair in the blue states.

22:17 That's what's happening.

22:20 There's a coordinated campaign to ruin the state fair at the mall.

22:25 Yeah.

22:26 Okay.

22:27 Yeah, of course.

22:29 everything that Trump does

22:30 they find ways to submarine it

22:33 and Trump doesn't help things

22:35 by putting some of these people

22:37 in charge that shouldn't be doing it

22:39 wait a minute

22:39 if he just said hey Elon

22:43 can you use

22:45 your skills to pick somebody to run

22:47 this thing for me

22:48 he could have asked us and we've done a better job

22:51 I would think so yeah

22:53 and we would have done an award show and everything

22:55 like the podcast awards we'd slip that in

22:57 wait a minute

22:59 are we criticizing the president because i don't think that's our brand anymore john we can't be

23:03 oh no we can't criticize the president you have that note you want to read it no i'm not gonna

23:08 read it i would read that one note i didn't even we got a note from some some disgruntled listener

23:14 you guys are just but i looked at my bi he donated a couple years ago we're not getting

23:20 anyone donating during this i'm blaming trump for the low donations yes mainly because until

23:27 So he gets his Iran, Iran, Iran, Iran thing over.

23:30 Iran, yes.

23:31 No, no, no, no, no, no, no, that's not, no.

23:36 We need a new president.

23:38 We need a Democrat president.

23:40 We're just like the oil guys.

23:42 There's no difference between us and the oil bear.

23:44 And you know, so something, I'm glad you find that humorous.

23:50 Something happened on the Joe Rogan show.

23:54 And I saw this a week or so ago.

23:57 And I was like, yeah, right on.

23:58 Now, Theo Vaughn, you know Theo Vaughn, right?

24:01 You know who he is?

24:02 I know who he is.

24:03 I don't watch his stuff.

24:04 No, no, but you know Theo.

24:05 And so Theo was on Joe's show.

24:08 I don't know.

24:10 And Joe was on Theo's show, and Theo was on Joe's show.

24:13 Yeah, okay.

24:13 No, Theo was on Joe's show.

24:14 It must have been four or five weeks ago.

24:17 And Theo Vaughn was out of his gourd.

24:20 He was like, gourd.

24:22 Wow, there's a phrase I haven't heard for, oh, let me think, 66?

24:27 it's the phrase that pays baby so he was an old jonathan winter saying

24:34 okay well the the thousand year old man no no that's carl reiner i thought that was oh okay

24:44 i thought he was with jonathan let's not talk no no it's carl reiner and and mel brooks was

24:50 Okay, all right, thank you.

24:51 So he was nuts.

24:55 He was spiraling.

24:56 He was like, Israel, they're the terrorists.

24:59 And Joe was sitting there like, dude, you should come and work out with us.

25:05 Come and hang out with us.

25:07 I mean, Theo Vaughn was really going nutty.

25:10 And Theo has, he's a lovely guy, I'm sure.

25:14 He has all kinds of issues.

25:15 Don't we all?

25:17 Like what?

25:19 No, he's had addiction issues.

25:21 Right now, he's been trying Jesus, which we're all praying for Theo in that regard.

25:27 But there was something else, and it is SSRIs.

25:31 And Theo is, I think he's even been vocal about it, that he takes, you know, whatever, Lexapro, whatever it is, whatever the brand du jour is, it's all the same stuff.

25:43 And so Joe's on his show talking to some other guests, and here's what he says.

25:50 Yeah, Theo Vaughn's going through the exact same thing.

25:52 And last time I was on the podcast, he was explaining it to me.

25:55 And it freaks me out because I know Theo's had conversations before, like even publicly.

26:01 He had a Netflix taping, and it didn't go well.

26:06 It was like they actually shelved it.

26:09 They never used it.

26:10 There was all these stories from people that were there.

26:13 saying he bombed I think he just had a kind of a breakdown and then he was talking to the crowd

26:17 and there's a video of it we said you know the people were shaking hey we still love you he goes

26:21 thank you look I'm just I'm trying not to take my own life that's what I'm trying to do right now

26:25 and like you hear stuff like that and you're just like oh Jesus Christ I've known too many people

26:30 that I didn't think were going to kill themselves and then did and then he goes down these spirals

26:36 where he starts talking about world events and freaking out I'm like oh Jesus Christ like I gotta

26:41 I help this dude.

26:43 And so I send him things about people getting off of them.

26:47 And apparently there are some doctors that specialize in getting people off of them.

26:52 But here's the thing about that chemical imbalance thing.

26:55 That's not real.

26:57 They used to think that that was what these things do, that they treated a chemical imbalance.

27:03 But then recently the studies have shown that that is not what they do.

27:07 They don't exactly know what they do.

27:11 And they kind of numb you in some sort of a way that helps some people.

27:15 So I even texted Joe, like, thank you for saying that.

27:19 This chemical imbalance lie that they throw on everybody, which is total horse crap.

27:24 Say, way to go.

27:26 Excellent job.

27:27 This is a bad thing.

27:28 People can't get off of them.

27:30 Doctors are handing out like candy.

27:32 And then Joe does something I don't think I've ever seen him do.

27:35 He did an apology.

27:37 But I don't think this was just an apology for Theo Vaughn.

27:41 I think the pushback he got from his audience was so – and Joe is – Joe really doesn't like controversy about himself.

27:51 No, he really doesn't.

27:53 Yeah.

27:54 You know, he's always very cautious, and I know him this way.

27:59 He doesn't really want anyone to be mad.

28:00 Yeah, a lot of people don't.

28:01 It's not that – a lot of people just don't.

28:04 Right, just don't.

28:05 Yeah.

28:07 And if you listen carefully to this apology that, now, he said this was an apology for Theo, but I kind of had the feeling it was an apology for more than just Theo, more for SSRIs and other things.

28:20 I apologize to Theo.

28:22 He knows I love him, and he said that, and we laughed, and we joked around about it, and I apologize for the way I talked about this.

28:31 But I felt like I need to explain to other people too to get just like what was going on in my mind out.

28:38 And it certainly wasn't like covering for Israel and it certainly wasn't like trying to paint him out like he's damaged or treat him like a child.

28:47 I just want him to be okay.

28:48 And when you're dealing with someone or when you have like had experience dealing with someone where it winds up going very badly and then you're just left with this feeling like what could I have done?

29:01 you know i didn't do a good job of it you know especially like the marcus king thing like that's

29:07 terrible what he goes on and on about this i think the audience freaked out on him i think

29:13 you know our audience our producers go yeah uh but here's what i did to get off of them

29:20 yeah they do they did you know and like my like you know it was really hard anybody pushing back

29:26 on us no no but i think man that must be the size of the audience too i think a lot of people freaked

29:31 out because it's a harsh reality when someone is telling you the truth he said he told that what i

29:37 believe to be a medical fact they don't know how it works they don't and this chemical imbalance

29:43 thing is a lie it's a it's a sales pitch it's a rationale and and i think also some of the israel

29:49 people got mad at you know like well you're covering for israel by saying theo's just nuts

29:54 on drugs whatever there's an element of that so that we do get yeah yeah all the time um but it

30:04 was just surprising i'm like wow you know the pressure must be really big we don't we don't

30:09 first of all we don't really we never really got any pushback on that only people who agree

30:13 it's a small it's a small group now we have this 10th is audience yeah well if that it's a small

30:21 group i think i don't know i really don't know i don't think anybody knows exactly how big the

30:27 audience some say 10 11 12 20 millions 100 million you got 500 million dollars whatever it's all i

30:33 think 10 sounds about right so uh talking about disasters and to back up my prediction

30:40 from the last show the show before i don't remember okay here we go this brings us to a

30:47 three by three oh hold on one second now it's time for three by three yeah baby experiment by jcd

30:55 comparing stories from abc cbs and mbc

30:59 that's right we got three stories the big headlines from the big three news organizations

31:06 and will they say the same will one be different what would the cia broadcasting systems bring us

31:10 john has all three in fact in this case they're all pretty different but

31:15 they're about the same thing let's start with abc tonight jeff bezos commercial space company

31:22 blue origin is warning florida residents not to touch any debris from this catastrophic explosion

31:27 that incinerated one of its largest rockets during an unmanned engine test thursday night

31:32 the enormous fireball lighting up the cape canaveral sky producing a mushroom cloud

31:38 visible for dozens of miles incredibly no injuries were reported

31:42 frantic witnesses inundating first responders with 9-1-1 calls there was a massive explosion

31:50 in blue origin a big mushroom cloud just went into the sky like an atomic bomb there was a huge

31:56 fireball in the sky there's still a raging fire going daylight revealing much of the launch pad

32:01 reduced to charred rubble blue origin saying an anomaly took place during a static fire test of

32:07 its 320-foot-tall New Glenn rocket when the rocket's engines are fired while the craft

32:12 remains attached to the launch site. The explosion, a significant setback for Blue Origin and NASA,

32:19 which is depending on reusable rockets from Blue Origin to send landers to the moon.

32:23 Blue Origin had emerged as really a key player in NASA's efforts to return to the moon,

32:30 and so this is pretty devastating to that effect. Blue Origin says they'd invested more than a

32:35 billion dollars into that launch site in a statement jeff bezos calling it a very rough day

32:40 but vowing to rebuild yes this was your prediction from the last show in fact when we played the

32:47 jacked up nasa guy saying yeah we're gonna have doom buggies and all kinds of stuff that we had

32:52 before again on the moon it's gonna be great and we have the lunar economy which apparently can't

32:58 get off the launch pad um not only that but it took the launch pad with it you know i was thinking

33:04 about this of all the the if you look at historical footage whenever they do a compilation

33:11 of uh of space travel before this new space travel race there were maybe of course the

33:20 the challenger was the big one but maybe there were three or four explosions that the idea is

33:27 always like it's all great everything's lifting off everything's going did we have a lot of

33:32 mishaps back in the day well in the early days it was laughable the uh that's all there was i mean

33:40 there used to be a program we're talking about the 50s yeah so in 1950 here's the history for you

33:46 kids out there haven't been around that's right this is exclusive to your no agenda podcast

33:51 57 we got a paw paw dvorak gonna tell you about what happened back in the day 57 the russians put

33:58 satellite into space, and it was beeping away, floating around Sputnik.

34:02 Also known as Sputnik, yes. And so Sputnik's going around, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep,

34:06 beep, beep, beep, just annoying the hell out of the United States

34:10 because the Russians apparently are doing space shit.

34:14 And they sent a dog in space, Latka. And they killed that dog.

34:18 That dog died, man. The dog died in space. And you can still buy

34:22 watches, I think, in Russia that have Latka on the dog, on the face

34:26 i think sir gene has a couple of them i have one oh wow you know you think i bought it during the

34:33 soviet era and it was and somebody said when you when you when you buy stuff on the street which

34:38 is illegal be careful you know so this guy sneaks up to me he says you want to watch

34:44 i said and he and i said he shows it to he looks left looks right he opens the case and it's one

34:50 of these latke watches i said hell yeah it's like 10 bucks or something yeah and so i i give him the

34:56 Ten bucks he hands me the watch, and I look up to thank him.

34:59 He's gone.

35:00 He's gone.

35:01 Yeah, you think that's cool.

35:03 Glenn Beck, I think there was two or three Sputniks they had.

35:06 It wasn't just one.

35:08 They had, at least that's the story Glenn Beck told me.

35:11 I only remember the one.

35:13 He has one.

35:14 He has one in his museum.

35:15 I saw it.

35:16 A Sputnik?

35:17 A Sputnik, yeah.

35:18 That guy's got way too much cash.

35:22 I don't know how he got that.

35:23 Okay, well, anyway, back to the story.

35:24 Dog watch.

35:25 So in 57, they sent up this button, Nick, and so they told everybody, all the kids,

35:30 okay, everybody's got to get into science.

35:32 That's when science fairs started and everything.

35:34 So everyone had to get into science.

35:36 And so they started launching rockets, trying to get one that would not blow up.

35:42 And my favorite one was the Navy versus the Army.

35:48 And the Army had these old V2s from Germany,

35:52 And the Navy had these rockets called the Vanguard.

35:55 Oh, yeah.

35:57 And they kept trying to launch a satellite off of ships.

36:01 And they would blow up every single time.

36:06 And it would be nightly news.

36:08 Another Vanguard blows up.

36:10 And so we got to see one rocket after another exploding because they couldn't get anything off the ground.

36:16 It was embarrassing.

36:16 And then somehow by 1969, they had a man on the moon.

36:20 Right.

36:21 Unbelievable.

36:22 And now, 2026, we can't get off the launch pad.

36:25 But it's always seen as, this is actually great.

36:29 Congratulations, Blue Origin, because we've learned a lot.

36:32 This is what Elon always says.

36:34 No, it was meant to deteriorate rapidly, because now we know what we shouldn't be doing.

36:39 Yeah, but Elon's smart enough to have them do it up in the sky and not wreck the whole launch pad.

36:43 No, I think they had a launch pad blowout, too.

36:47 That one, that was some years ago.

36:49 Yeah.

36:50 Okay, let's go to CBS's version of the story.

36:54 Oh, CBS, here we go.

36:55 If any rocket launch is a controlled explosion, this moment was neither.

37:00 Blue Origin's New Glenn rocket, parked on its launch pad, suddenly erupted into a mammoth fireball seen up and down Florida's space coast.

37:09 That is crazy.

37:11 Something went haywire during a test firing of its engines, a significant setback for more than the space company.

37:19 This is a very critical problem for NASA to deal with.

37:22 We simply don't know the extent of the damage to the launch pad

37:26 or what it might take to fix the rocket and get it flying again.

37:29 Daylight showed the heavily damaged launch pad, New Glenn's only launch pad,

37:34 including twisted metal and a collapsed lightning tower.

37:38 Repairs could take months.

37:40 What's unclear, the setback's impact on NASA's Artemis program

37:44 to return to the moon ahead of the Chinese.

37:47 Blue Origin's developing lunar landers for NASA to deliver astronauts and cargo to a planned moon base near the lunar South Pole.

37:55 Next year's Artemis III mission aims to practice docking the Orion capsule with a Blue Origin lander.

38:01 And all the landers need the New Glenn rocket to get to space.

38:05 A setback like this obviously is going to push those plans back a bit.

38:09 Blue Origin founder Jeff Bezos posted about the explosion.

38:12 It's too early to know the root cause.

38:15 very rough day but we'll rebuild whatever needs rebuilding and get back to flying nasa administrator

38:21 jared isaacman said the agency will assess near-term mission impacts tony nasa has also

38:27 hired spacex to help get america back to the moon but its lunar lander is behind schedule

38:32 and after the most recent flight of its starship rocket had problems it's also grounded observations

38:39 um we are missing the term glitch i find that very annoying instead we have brought back

38:47 the term haywire oh you good catch what what where does the what is the etymology of this

38:55 term haywire ask the robot book of knowledge what is the etymology of the term haywire

39:02 all right book of knowledge is is on it let's find out where this comes from it's got to be old

39:08 according to the book of knowledge the term haywire originates from the baling wire used

39:15 to bind hay bales in farming and logging operations this cheap malleable wire was

39:21 notorious for tangling easily and creating chaotic messes when handled carelessly leading

39:27 to the metaphorical meaning of something going awry or out of control by the early 20th century

39:33 thus it has been written so it's a hundred year old term wow haywire that makes sense actually

39:41 when they explained by the robot glitch glitch is the one you're supposed to be using people i don't

39:46 understand why they don't use haywire they're sick of listening to you complain about it let's go to

39:50 the last report which is nbc the explosion was massive filling the nice sky with a brilliant

39:56 orange that's not good captured on doorbell cameras and shaking homes great nat pop oh

40:03 that's fantastic that's not good that's good filling the nice sky with a brilliant orange

40:08 that's not good captured on doorbell cameras and shaking homes and bars in nearby cape canaveral

40:14 it looks like there was an explosion blue origins new glenn rocket went up in a ball of fire during

40:21 a routine ground test fueled by methane and liquid oxygen no injuries from the air the company's only

40:28 launch pad appears completely destroyed blue origin owner jeff bezos posting very rough day

40:34 but we will rebuild whatever needs rebuilding and get back to flying the disaster comes just days

40:40 after nasa award a blue origin a nearly 200 million dollar contract to launch components

40:46 and perhaps eventually astronauts to a lunar base.

40:49 The great return is close at hand, and we will not slow down.

40:53 But now a potential delay to NASA's ambitious launch schedule set to start this fall.

40:58 And next year with the Artemis III flight to test docking procedures in Earth orbit.

41:03 Former NASA chief Charlie Bolden.

41:06 Space flight is hard no matter who's doing it.

41:08 We know how to do it, but nature and physics and a lot of other things have a say in all this.

41:14 Radiation.

41:15 It was just last month that another Blue Origin rocket failure left a satellite in a wrong orbit.

41:20 And now a bigger failure as the company tries to compete with SpaceX and help send humans eventually onto the moon.

41:26 Now, no one has mentioned the possibility of sabotage.

41:31 There's a lot of money, a lot of contracts out there.

41:36 Sabotage, anyone?

41:39 Well, it's like that time that SpaceX rocket, you saw something headed toward it before it blew up on the launch paddock a few years back.

41:47 Yeah.

41:48 It seems suspicious.

41:51 Yeah, well, but the sabotage comes right at the same time that SpaceX is filing for their public offering.

42:00 I'm just saying.

42:04 Yeah, but the problem is, does this make the public offering more or less attractive?

42:10 Well, in my mind, it's all unattractive.

42:14 I mean, where is...

42:15 No, that's not the question.

42:16 That's fine with you.

42:17 But I'm just saying, to investors in general, would this explosion make the offering more or less attractive?

42:24 Well, I'm not allowed to have an opinion, so my opinion doesn't matter.

42:27 No, you can't say what you think.

42:31 You have to tell me what...

42:32 You're not answering the question.

42:33 Okay, the answer to the question is much more attractive.

42:37 I say less.

42:38 And my question, my follow-on question, though, which is in your camp,

42:43 how come AI hasn't figured out all of the problems?

42:47 Shouldn't the wonderful artificial intelligence have all the answers

42:52 and have calculated the perfect exact things that they need so that this could not happen?

42:57 Isn't that, Bezos has AI, Elon has AI.

43:00 i thought ai was smarter than anybody in the universe in fact they both have ai up the wazoo

43:07 gavin your take on the s1 and i think specifically elon web services i think what's important about

43:13 elon web services does make me laugh but 15 billion that means the ai business right there

43:19 is going to quadruple quadruple it is already effectively quadrupled i think what's important

43:25 about that is there's a stat in it that for this is uh gavin baker and if you ask me who that is i

43:33 don't have the answer offhand okay go their first data center was 122 days the second one it took

43:40 them 91 days the third one this is from the all-in podcast so it's not going to be negative

43:45 was i think they build data centers dramatically faster than anyone else at a lower cost

43:54 and now that you have lower costs but a lower cost cost i'm gonna dump out of that i i watched

44:02 a lot of the um reagan national economic forum which was about 10 hours did you see any of it

44:12 it was i saw zero uh it was there were a couple of interesting speakers some things were interesting

44:19 that were said uh okay you know it was it was on i think cnbc may have had some co-sponsoring with

44:26 us saw some cnbc hosts um but it it was it was very very long and it was a true economic forum

44:34 type thing and um i have two clips from it with dan armada and this is about this is exactly what

44:44 i've been predicting where all these big data centers all this important stuff from the training

44:51 the model the models and everything it's all starting to fizzle out now the new term is

44:58 inference or some say inference but i'm pretty sure it's inference i think inference is the

45:04 correct pronunciation there's a lot there i want to dig into but first i want to get the private

45:09 sector the entrepreneurial you know piece of this in into the conversation too um dan you have you've

45:16 co-founded a startup you're the ceo of a startup called armada um and i guess before i get your

45:21 reaction to what we've just heard so far on stage just a little bit about armada yeah so armada is

45:26 the hyperscaler for the edge we're building modular oh the hyperscaler for the edge yes

45:31 wow we can draw analogies to the the late 90s from what is happening here

45:37 so now we've gone by the language or the bullcrap yes and yes yeah so armada is the hyperscaler for

45:45 the edge we're building modular ai data centers that can be deployed anywhere in the world which

45:51 is important if you look at a map of the world only about 30 of the world has these big hyperscale

45:55 data centers we're building for the 70 so that the u.s can win this ai race that we're in right now

46:00 So the edge, that's inference.

46:03 The edge is, oh, but I need to have this, this, well, he actually explains it here.

46:07 We're in the middle of this AI super cycle and what we're...

46:10 Super, AI super cycle.

46:12 We're in the middle of this AI super cycle.

46:14 And what we're witnessing is that there's this shift that's going on.

46:19 It used to just be all about training these really high powered, large language models.

46:25 And that's still important.

46:26 We still need to lead in that area.

46:28 But what we're now seeing is a lot of people asking, well, how do I actually deploy those in as many places as possible to boost productivity, to improve my operations, to improve decision-making?

46:38 And that is about taking those models that have been trained on those hyperscale data centers and then running them on something like our modular data centers at the edge for inference and fine-tuning those models to proprietary, sensitive, oftentimes data sets for national security, for energy.

46:56 And we're seeing that play out globally where now people are like, OK, I've been playing with ChatGPT for a couple of years on my phone.

47:02 What can I actually do to improve my business or improve?

47:06 This is the exact thought I had.

47:09 I'm like, I've been playing with this ChatGPT on my phone.

47:12 What can I do to have it improve my business?

47:14 I've seen that play out globally where now people are like, OK, I've been playing with ChatGPT for a couple of years on my phone.

47:20 What can I actually do to improve my business or improve national security?

47:25 And I think that's going to continue to play out, which is one reason why in the market you're seeing it respond.

47:30 One of the things that was very interesting over the last few weeks, you've seen the spot price for H100s and H200s, which are NVIDIA's chips that are more optimized for inference versus training.

47:41 I love that there's a spot price for this.

47:43 It's actually started to exceed the spot price for the GB200s and the GB300s, which are like the ones for training.

47:49 And I think that that's going to continue.

47:51 I think another good example is you saw the, I guess, what's the right word?

47:56 Aquahire that NVIDIA did of GROK.

47:58 What?

47:58 Aquahire.

47:59 I mean, that's also because they saw this shift that's coming to inference, and I think you're going to see that continue.

48:03 What's Aquahire?

48:03 Oh, you know what an Aquahire is.

48:05 An Aquahire is, that's what happened to Drop.io back in the day.

48:09 An Aquahire is where you want the people who built the product, but you don't give a crap about it.

48:13 Oh, so you buy the product and you steal the people.

48:15 Okay.

48:15 Yeah, exactly.

48:16 Now, I have some experience with this inference.

48:19 Aquahire.

48:21 i wish someone would acquihire this show well at least right well i uh yes you in fact

48:32 i think this is all leading into a couple of anecdotes personal anecdotes that you have to

48:38 offer yes about working with ai specifically claude code yeah and it's for a theory and the

48:45 thing is this is for the simplest of simple uh ideas that you've developed well i had that it

48:53 should be seamless and and effective yeah it should be uh no what is it uh safe and effective

49:00 so as i was playing around with the chat gpt for years no i i on your phone on my phone i really

49:09 wanted to see if if this ai could help out with my production work and and i analyzed myself i

49:16 went self what do you spend the most time doing for the no agenda show but can you guess what it

49:21 is well i know what it is is yakking yeah copy paste the amount of copy and pasting that i do

49:30 from show notes and clip titles and yeah just all and and i decided okay let me take the one that is

49:39 the the one that is the easiest to mess up as a human because it's at the end of the show we're

49:44 tired and we have to actually run through it together because i make mistakes you make we

49:49 make mistakes it's the credits it's purely the credits i'm like here's a great test today should

49:55 be easy yes my robot is very happy it might get it right so i teach now when you teach the robot

50:07 to do something so claude code is an agent and claude code by itself is an idiot you know the

50:12 reason why claude or any any of these models have problems with how many r's in strawberry

50:19 is because they're just guessing they they have no intelligence no knowledge what they can do

50:25 is build a python script that then says oh the word strawberry hold on and then it will look at

50:31 the word strawberry it'll programmatically see how many r's and then it'll come back with the

50:35 right answer but it has to build a script for it it doesn't actually know it itself this is the

50:40 basis of how this stuff works and what's nice about is you just tell it what you want it to do

50:45 so i said robot i want you to do the credits here's the the spreadsheet that jay sent me it's a

50:53 it's an excel file go in there find out find everybody who's donated between two hundred

50:59 dollars and three hundred dollars put them into my um into my uh show notes document under associate

51:07 executive producers and three hundred dollars or above put that into the executive producers

51:12 oh that's got to be the easiest thing in the world for it to do and i say in addition look at the

51:18 notes if there's a switcheroo you have to change the name oh they're making it complicated but

51:23 that's it shouldn't be it should be effortless the switcheroo part never had a problem

51:29 hmm the where do the names go every single time it does it differently so first it'll put like

51:38 two people in execs and then all the rest and associate execs and then i go in i say uh no

51:43 here's the here you have a document and it makes these little memory files they're marked down

51:49 files you have a document you've memorized this previously between 200 and 300 is associate

51:55 executive oh yeah you're right okay i'll fix it it fixes it and then it says i'm gonna make a note

52:01 of this so i don't do that again next show it does that right but then it puts in the amounts it puts

52:08 in the the the the entire notes that i said no it's just the name ah you're right i'm gonna make

52:15 a note of it so then i'm like robot you keep doing this wrong how can we fix this okay i have an idea

52:23 you just use the word credits all uppercase and that will trigger my memory to go look at the

52:30 memory docs well of course it does it wrong the problem with ai or robots as i like to call them

52:38 there's no consistency there is no iterating you can't iterate what you can't say you can do this

52:48 on your own you'll go into chat gpt or whatever say draw a picture of a house with a cat in the

52:54 yard and the dog okay great if you say now make the sky blue it'll remove the dog you know it

53:01 does all kinds of other things yeah it can't it is cascade it cascades on its own yes and it can't

53:09 it's not reproducible use the same prompt twice in the same ai it'll bring back two different

53:15 results every single time it is for business purposes when it worked now i'll be the first

53:21 to say it's actually still faster for me to yell at it you know and typing i typing at it say no

53:29 you did that wrong and it will fix it it's still faster than me going back and and fixing it but

53:36 it's very annoying and i've given up on thinking i can never get it right here's the second thing

53:42 i've taught it how to make clips now what yes ffm peg is a well-known open source program

53:51 now if i say here's a france 24 clip here's the url clip it those are usually about a minute 30

53:58 minute 40 perfect it does it it clips it i've actually gotten pretty good at teaching it not

54:04 to put the reporter tag at the end you know so it knows program so it does a transcript and then it

54:11 cuts based upon the transcript it can do that it cannot think for itself it cannot pull a clip out

54:19 based upon a full sentence that someone is saying it is it can't do it it has no intelligence it

54:25 doesn't have ears and it can't figure out what a good clip is what a beat is with an intro with an

54:32 arc with a payoff at the end a hard cut it cannot do it ergo this crap is way overvalued and i think

54:41 it's unusable for business that said for me myself it's a little it's on par with having an

54:50 intern as long as the intern hands me the stuff and i go back and correct everything it saves me

54:55 30 minutes but it it i don't see where all the everyone's like oh it's just going to change

55:02 business we don't need people bullshit it will improve existing people's productivity

55:09 but you've got to show me a lot better output than what this stuff is doing right now and claude is

55:15 supposed to be the creme de la creme which brings me to a boots on the ground uh which i think you

55:23 copied on from brad and we've been talking about real jobs young people should be looking at in the

55:31 in the economy in the new economy that trump and general besant are building

55:36 and he said hey i heard you bring up hvac again and the great wages and you're not wrong i've been

55:44 a journeyman electrician for over 20 years and the wages keep going up along with heavy demand

55:49 all trades are great and provide incredible life however pay attention there's one trade

55:55 almost nobody talks about that is head and shoulders above all skilled trades more money

56:02 than anybody complete job protection do you remember this email yeah the job is elevator

56:10 mechanic highest pay by far always in demand no matter how the economy is doing up we have two

56:18 elevator mechanics that show up at the albany mallard club meetups oh really they what they

56:24 drive are they driving bentley's no they but they they're very proud of being elevator mechanics

56:30 elevator unions are run like mafia families though it can be difficult to get into but that

56:37 doesn't mean outsiders don't get into it so there you go this is your tip of the day from your no

56:42 agenda show elevator mechanic i mean this this would be if we were doing uh the graduate 2026

56:51 version instead of plastic we say son elevators get into elevators people always need elevators

56:57 elevators is good so anyway um that is my ai uh experience and maybe it'll get better and if it

57:09 does i will certainly share the clipping stuff with you i've been doing it for five weeks i'm

57:14 using it it sucks but it's still a little faster than me doing everything by myself

57:20 but for $200 a month of

57:23 anthropic token credits I could

57:25 probably hire an intern

57:27 who would probably do a better job

57:31 we got some

57:33 goofball stuff here I want to get out of the way

57:36 okay

57:36 so there's this woman

57:39 that came on one of the

57:41 oh I can't believe you clipped this

57:44 let's just say

57:48 an attractive woman with a belly shirt

57:50 can we just add that to it she's not just a woman it's a good looking gal but it's beside the point

57:57 uh her name's elizabeth april and she's a psychic and she's she brought and she's on this podcast

58:07 of course this guy's lapping it up like every you know these podcast hosts that do a lot of

58:11 interviewing they just go along with everything seems to me yeah um whatever it is you know

58:17 they're doing my material from 12 years ago yeah it's funny that you're bringing the clips we've

58:24 had some kind of i feel like i'm in a in a new version of the movie uh was it big where they

58:31 switch places yeah well we switched i guess so let's go with it she's going to talk about and i

58:37 i'm listening to this i'm thinking it's reasonable what she's got to say about people being cloned

58:42 is that my cue to start the clip yeah it was just so many people like simon cowell wait simon cowell

58:50 simon cowell have you seen the recent video i have so you think that's not him no i don't know

58:55 he's looking weird too now he's looking weird john travolta yeah it looks like john b the singer

59:01 exactly i'm gonna show her john b did you see him yeah so what is that about do you think that's

59:06 like a jim carrey situation or i'm not sure but they're definitely replacing people left right

59:10 center and then i have a conspiracy theory okay that no one else has okay so you know okay my big

59:16 theory about cloning is they popularized plastic surgery to cover up the differences in clones

59:23 like michael jackson was the first major public clone and he was the first major quote-unquote

59:29 celebrity who got all the plastic surgeries and changed his appearance and it really wasn't it

59:32 was actually a clone but then you have ozempic and you have this whole like ozempic glp whatever

59:37 they're called drugs right whatever they're major weight loss and they change your appearance

59:41 drastically and then you have something called endrenochrome you guys know what that is of course

59:46 for those of you who don't know what that is it's essentially a substance that comes from victims

59:52 fear it's essentially blood and what happens is not humans drinking this reptilians part of the

59:58 elite they drink endrenochrome to essentially reverse age they've had access to endrenochrome

1:00:04 pretty much since the dawning of humanity my favorite part of this is that she says

1:00:08 adrenochrome where the term is adrenochrome this woman is i don't know why she's on a podcast other

1:00:15 than she can get she's cute i got a belly shirt on i'm slumped in my chair like can i look at

1:00:20 this skirt with you this was horrific okay i won't play the second half no no no we'll play of course

1:00:26 we'll play the second half but yeah i think it was horrific but um the sound is something

1:00:36 screwy about it andrena chrome it's an andrena chrome let's play more

1:00:42 yeah no because people think we're idiots what's happened since 2020 is the trafficking rings all

1:00:50 over the planet are getting shut down especially since the death of queen elizabeth she was like

1:00:55 The head reptilian.

1:00:56 And then everyone vied for...

1:00:58 When I saw the...

1:01:00 Because they have pictures flying by.

1:01:02 It's highly edited.

1:01:03 I remember meeting Queen Elizabeth.

1:01:05 She may have been a reptile,

1:01:09 but there was not much going on.

1:01:11 I don't know how much command she had of the reptilian world.

1:01:15 After she died,

1:01:17 no one could figure out who was going to be in charge.

1:01:19 What are you talking about?

1:01:21 King Charles is in charge of the reptilians.

1:01:24 We all know that.

1:01:25 was fighting and slowly but surely all these pockets of like underground trafficked victims

1:01:31 so the supply of endrenochrome has diminished so much so that these celebrities can't get their

1:01:36 hands on it anymore it just came out too that ozempic is shredding your bones grinding like a

1:01:42 cheeseburger i know jim carrey is wholeheartedly different that's not him and he would never

1:01:47 accept an award he's like i'm not coming out again no like he actually stood on business when it came

1:01:51 to all the superficial hollywood bulls he was like this is stupid like he makes fun of that stuff the

1:01:57 thing is like they either take people out who aren't complying or they replace them with a

1:02:01 clone so i always say this like if they replace someone then just watch what they're filming in

1:02:06 next how come it's an international law put in place by the un to where human cloning is banned

1:02:12 why would you have to ban it why would you have to ban it across the globe it's an international

1:02:16 alone because it's creepy how about that for a reason well they don't want companies doing it

1:02:22 because the shadow government's already doing it exactly the shadow government is like it doesn't

1:02:27 exist but it's illegal you can't do it though here's another theory too a lot of people from

1:02:31 congress are old trafficked victims like kids disappear all the time right then they put them

1:02:37 through a program they emerge as some new person they run for office and they win how come jd vance

1:02:43 changed his name four times that's not his name i forgot the name like off the top of my head but

1:02:48 that's weird though to where you have all these different names and you're just who are you well

1:02:53 now now i'm gonna agree with that i'm gonna i'm gonna say that i am suspicious that talarico may

1:02:58 be one of those that's completely possible that guy looks put together like a frankenstein

1:03:03 my goodness yeah it's the angry competition podcast competition we have oh and obviously

1:03:12 we can't keep up with it.

1:03:13 And we're losing.

1:03:13 We're losing to these people.

1:03:16 We're losing.

1:03:16 The reptilians.

1:03:18 We should just,

1:03:19 maybe Thursday

1:03:20 we just do a show like that.

1:03:22 And you know what?

1:03:24 Less prep.

1:03:25 It's a lot easier to do.

1:03:27 We just call up some buddies,

1:03:29 have them come on the show.

1:03:30 You know,

1:03:32 you got to have your baseball hat.

1:03:33 You need your baseball hat

1:03:35 on backwards

1:03:35 when you do this, John.

1:03:36 Oh, yeah, definitely.

1:03:37 You have to have,

1:03:38 or side,

1:03:39 not completely backwards,

1:03:40 kind of backwards and sideways.

1:03:42 yeah yeah well why we're on this kind of thing i want to sorry sorry i was going to do something

1:03:48 else but okay you you need to continue this really can we no i don't have any more of the

1:03:53 cloning stuff i do have something that backs up one of our other things that we've noticed

1:03:58 which is the idea of making tucker carlson the president of the united states ah yes okay

1:04:05 and chink chink your buddy chink chunk as you like to call him yeah chunk chunk weger yes chink

1:04:12 he he's on board they only have one guy who could win and i'm worried about it and that's

1:04:19 tucker carlson if tucker runs in the republican primary he definitely wins that primary you can

1:04:24 quote me on it and then you could have kevin laughing and you could rerun that tape it'll

1:04:28 be great in fact back in 2016 i was on abc's this week with stephanopoulos they asked the whole

1:04:34 panel who's going to win at that point they just on the democratic national convention and hillary

1:04:38 Clinton had a 10 point lead. I was the only one on the panel to say Donald Trump was going to win

1:04:42 and they all laughed out loud. Populists win. The people chasing after the donors, whether it's

1:04:49 Israel or Big Pharma or any of the other donors, nobody likes those people. Kamala Harris lost

1:04:55 because she was bragging about how she had 90 corporate CEOs on her side. I got bad news for

1:05:01 her. Nobody likes corporate CEOs. Sorry, Kevin. Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Wait a minute. This

1:05:05 makes no sense because it's the exact same people like chanko are saying that massey was defeated

1:05:13 by jew money not the guy was i don't still even know the guy's name who is who is who is now the

1:05:20 new senator from kentucky do you know his name he's not a senator he's a congressman okay i see

1:05:26 i don't even know that yeah obviously what's his name what's his name you don't know his name

1:05:32 garrison or something he's got some so he had no pedestrian name no name recognition

1:05:39 no and but apparently it makes no difference now he's a navy seal i know that pick pick pick a lane

1:05:47 chank the people chasing after the donors whether it's israel or big pharma or any of the other

1:05:52 donors then nobody nobody likes those people kamala harris lost because she was bragging about

1:05:58 how she had 90 corporate ceos on her side i got bad news for her nobody likes corporate ceos

1:06:03 sorry kevin sorry me but the reality is that's what every poll shows it is deeply deeply unpopular

1:06:11 and these days it's pretty merited so if if you've got someone in the right lane which is democratic

1:06:17 capitalism i think they win yeah okay well we'll see if talarico wins in texas we'll see we'll see

1:06:26 i don't think he can win in texas there's a big fight texans are not going to vote in a vegan

1:06:31 uh a vegan period not to mention the fact that he's got

1:06:37 what no go ahead go ahead yeah not to mention the fact that he's got screwball

1:06:43 religious beliefs very much so so i have two clips here of uh paxton and i and i think this

1:06:52 is one of the reasons why he won and it's not my favorite reason but when you extrapolate what he's

1:06:59 really saying he's correct because there's a lot of fear what is the number one fear of everybody

1:07:05 in texas everybody in texas worried about one thing and one thing only muslims because we are

1:07:11 a christian nation we are a christian state period the end i took on our foreign adversaries as well

1:07:18 Stopped China from buying our land, tripled border security, designated cartels as terrorists,

1:07:24 and I'm now taking on one of our most growing and biggest threats, which is Sharia law and Islamification.

1:07:31 You know, Sharia law is organized crime, period, and I will treat it as such.

1:07:36 I also changed the law to stop these radical Muslim groups like CARE and Muslim Brotherhood from buying any property in Texas.

1:07:45 Treating Sharia law as organized crime.

1:07:48 Can you please unpack that?

1:07:51 Unpack that.

1:07:52 Yeah, so look, we've got to make sure that everyone understands this is not a religious liberties issue.

1:07:59 This is not a First Amendment issue because if they're faithfully adherent to their ideology, and I call it an ideology for a reason, in the Koran, they see us as the infidel that they can commit jihad against.

1:08:14 This is an America first issue. This is a Texas first issue.

1:08:17 This is a national security issue because they don't think we deserve the right to exist as Americans or as Christians.

1:08:26 So he conflates a couple of things here. I completely agree.

1:08:30 Muslim Brotherhood terrorist organization.

1:08:33 In fact, that is the the the the backbone of most terrorism we have witnessed in the past 50 years, but probably even longer than that.

1:08:43 it was started by the mi6 mi6 back in the day council on america islamic relations also bad

1:08:49 news bad dudes referring to him constantly npr everybody goes to them for for quotes well why

1:08:56 what okay thank you for asking because liberals and that would mainly be democrats but liberals

1:09:03 they always want to find someone who's oppressed so they that's why gays for palestine and that's

1:09:11 why they're all wearing kiffies at every protest.

1:09:14 Now, they're stupid because they haven't studied history,

1:09:18 because the socialists and the communists have always been used

1:09:23 by these types of radical Islamists,

1:09:27 which is different from Muslims, Islamists,

1:09:29 to gain political traction.

1:09:32 And the first thing the Islamists do when they're in power

1:09:36 is they kill the socialists and the communists.

1:09:39 It's historical.

1:09:41 So, but Paxton and a lot of Republicans are conflating this.

1:09:46 And, you know, to say, I don't think Paxton's ever looked at the Koran,

1:09:50 to say that we're the infidels, they got to kill us.

1:09:54 You know, it's not like a covenant like we have in the Bible.

1:10:00 This was specific tribes that were written in the Koran that had to be gotten rid of.

1:10:07 You know, he's taking things a little too far in his interpretation.

1:10:13 But ultimately, he is correct, because this is what we've seen in Europe.

1:10:20 We've seen liberal groups use Islamists and, there you go, Muslims to take over countries.

1:10:31 You get a small country like Holland, and they have a 1.5 birth rate reproduction rate, which is negative.

1:10:39 You bring in a whole bunch of Muslims, and they're going at it like bunnies.

1:10:45 And before you know it, they take over.

1:10:47 And they took over Brussels, and they've taken over all these different cities just by sheer numbers.

1:10:52 I don't think we have to worry about that in Texas just yet.

1:10:56 What's the percentage of Muslims in Texas total?

1:11:01 uh of the population uh i'd have to ask take a guess i know what it is um i'd say it's probably

1:11:08 four percent two two percent yeah so we've got a ways to go but it's being used by people like

1:11:16 paxton which you know here's another one if a bunch of indonesians came to live in your

1:11:24 neighborhood would you be freaking out or would you think hey maybe they got some good indonesian

1:11:28 food the latter for sure i'd be very right if one of them could cook what there's no guarantee

1:11:35 that somebody comes in from a foreign culture that they can actually cook what country has

1:11:39 more muslims than any other country in the world oh indonesia indonesia number two but they're also

1:11:46 pakistan number three india number four bangladesh it's a long way until you get down to iraq iran

1:11:55 and somalia and all these other places and london london's got more than anybody so so i just want

1:12:04 to say that just be careful be careful with how sharia sharia law sharia law it is no different

1:12:13 than the talmudic law from the jews which a lot of people also hate you know gotta wash your hands

1:12:18 don't shake hands shake hands with your left hand whatever it is i don't eat with your right hand

1:12:23 don't eat this kind of food you know the jews have don't eat shellfish that's the main part of it

1:12:30 it's not like sharia and the rest is arbitration which even smart lawyers like the constitutional

1:12:35 lawyer agree with me but it's become this catchphrase you know it's like sharia but

1:12:42 paxton is correct we do need to stop the islamist groups like muslim brotherhood and care and there

1:12:51 is an entire political party in the united states the democrat party that thinks they're being smart

1:12:57 by using them as the poor oppressed people and they're all over the world free palestine

1:13:03 and it's going to get really interesting if people don't get smart about what's happening

1:13:09 here's the second clip you said there was another part other than treating sharia law as a criminal

1:13:15 enterprise you're going to be stripping away the power from these muslim groups how are you going

1:13:19 to do that number one we met his second degree felony to enforce sharia law i will make sure

1:13:24 that that is enforced to the fullest i don't even understand what that means you can't how about you

1:13:30 can't enforce any other law than u.s law that but you can't have arbitration if you want the law

1:13:36 number two change the law to stop these no-go zones like you've seen in north texas

1:13:41 plano islamic center epic is one of them they've renamed it to the meadow they're going to keep

1:13:46 renaming it but what this law what he's trying to do here is make you think that this thing is built

1:13:51 it's not built there's a mosque there's no community there's no meadow none of that is

1:13:58 as real you've only seen renderings online but he's using it for his political game which is

1:14:03 the part i don't like does is it allows the ag to bring an action to deny public benefit and what

1:14:10 is that? Sewer, water, electricity, roads, management districts. That makes sure that

1:14:15 the meadow remains a meadow. But the third that I mentioned earlier, probably the most powerful tool

1:14:21 is stopping enemy entities from owning any property in Texas that includes critical infrastructure.

1:14:27 So we need to continue to add to that list. Right now, CARE and Muslim Brotherhood are on that list.

1:14:33 We need to keep adding because what it does is it prevents them from owning any property in Texas,

1:14:39 And it allows the AG, and I made sure that was in the law, to bring an action to force them to divest and sell their property.

1:14:47 We cannot allow them to own one square inch in our great state.

1:14:52 Look, I'm never retreating from Washington, D.C., because I'm never going to Washington, D.C.

1:14:57 I have always known that the fight is right here in the great state of Texas.

1:15:02 I was born here, and I'll be buried here.

1:15:05 This is it.

1:15:06 So can be buried there and be buried there.

1:15:09 Yeah.

1:15:09 So, you know, yes, our problems worldwide, but certainly in the United States is Muslim Brotherhood is a huge problem.

1:15:20 Care should be there.

1:15:22 501 C3 status should be taken away.

1:15:25 They should be dealt with.

1:15:26 They're no good.

1:15:27 They're probably doing criminal things and there may be others.

1:15:30 But let's just be careful when we just say Muslims, because it is the Indonesians.

1:15:36 It is the Pakistanis.

1:15:38 It is the Indians.

1:15:39 It is the Bangladeshis.

1:15:41 And the British now, I guess.

1:15:45 Okay.

1:15:47 Yeah, so I just wanted to get that off my chest.

1:15:50 Ebola in Brazil.

1:15:52 Oh, man.

1:15:54 Ah, where's my...

1:15:56 I had new Ebola jingles.

1:15:57 Ah, hold on a second.

1:15:59 Oh, brother.

1:16:00 Ebola.

1:16:03 No, no, no.

1:16:04 Brand new ones.

1:16:05 I'll find them while I play the clip.

1:16:06 Health officials say they've identified a suspected Ebola case in Brazil.

1:16:10 If confirmed, it would be the first case outside Africa

1:16:13 since the latest outbreak began in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

1:16:17 Rory Gallimore reports.

1:16:19 The Brazilian authorities say this suspected Ebola case is a man in his 30s.

1:16:24 He has recently returned from a trip to the DRC

1:16:26 and is now being kept in isolation at a specialist hospital in Sao Paulo state.

1:16:30 Tests are being carried out to confirm the exact nature of his illness,

1:16:33 but this could mark an escalation in this outbreak.

1:16:36 Until now, the vast majority of infections have been registered in the east of the DRC, with a handful across the border in Uganda.

1:16:43 There have been more than 240 deaths so far.

1:16:46 The medical charity NSF has described the situation as deeply alarming, but health workers have successfully contained many Ebola outbreaks in the past.

1:16:55 Oh, that's interesting.

1:16:59 You lost your jingles?

1:17:02 No, I found them. I found them. Hold on a second. I'm bringing it to you right now.

1:17:05 these are great i was so happy with them here we go ebola ebola it has been with us two times in

1:17:15 our lives now is the third now it's time to speak about ebola ebola ebola ebola bola yeah baby

1:17:31 no kidding hello wow you're sharp i am uh we did see that tedros uh who talks about death

1:17:44 he went to uh the conga i thought that took a lot of nerve oh and and he was all dressed up in his

1:17:51 in his world health organization camos you know they'll have uniforms now and here he is the head

1:17:58 the World Health Organization visited eastern Congo's Bunia on Saturday.

1:18:02 Looking forward to stop this Ebola with the community and under the leadership of the

1:18:09 government. Of course, more logistic support, more financial support. But while focusing on

1:18:14 the emergency, we should use it as an opportunity to build the health system. Because in every

1:18:19 crisis, there is opportunity. And that's how we should manage this.

1:18:24 This guy's no good. Hold on, we'll get the second part of the report.

1:18:30 Bunia, a city in the Aituri province, is at the heart of the Ebola outbreak in the African country.

1:18:36 Experts warn the virus is spreading faster than the response,

1:18:40 despite better organized health facilities and new aid arrivals.

1:18:44 Latest official figures show more than 1,000 suspected cases and more than 200 suspected deaths.

1:18:52 Neighboring Uganda has confirmed nine cases and one death.

1:18:55 Is John McCain's ex-wife, is her name Cindy?

1:18:59 Yeah, Cindy McCain.

1:19:01 Yeah, well, she's a part of the problem.

1:19:04 World Food Program Executive Director Cindy McCain is stepping down from her post Monday.

1:19:09 During her three years at the helm of the U.N. agency, there have been two famines.

1:19:14 And when we spoke with her late last week from Rome, she told us we're looking potentially at several more, among many other challenges.

1:19:22 By the way, if you're if you're the head of the World Food Program, you get a you get an apartment in Rome.

1:19:29 That's the gig right. Why? Why not?

1:19:33 There was Rome got to do with the price of bread. That's where your your headquarters are.

1:19:39 You got to be in Rome. Are you kidding? It's like being in Paris. It's great.

1:19:42 emergency response to ebola in the congo that's a country that's already struggling as i understand

1:19:48 it with about 27 million food insecure people i know the u.s state department is pledging some

1:19:56 help here but but what are you hearing about the situation on the ground for emergency responders

1:20:01 like yours yes it's not good not good it's it's not good hitting people in a mass way mass and

1:20:09 There's really no way to know right now how many people have been affected by this.

1:20:14 We know that it's a rampage now.

1:20:17 So what we need to do is not only be able to get in, we run logistics, we bring in supplies, we bring in people.

1:20:25 And we do much more than that as well, just in the region.

1:20:29 But this is going to take a real world effort.

1:20:32 This is very deadly.

1:20:34 Very, very deadly.

1:20:35 Hey, maybe that's why Peter Thiel has moved to Argentina.

1:20:39 You've been following that story?

1:20:41 No, tell me about it.

1:20:43 Oh, so apparently he bought a house in Argentina

1:20:46 and he's put his kids in school there in Argentina.

1:20:49 And everyone's saying, well, what's going to happen in America

1:20:52 if he's moving to Argentina?

1:20:55 Didn't he also have one of those guys who bought a place in New Zealand?

1:20:58 Yeah, but he put his kids in school.

1:21:00 That's the big one.

1:21:01 He put his kids in school.

1:21:02 Maybe he just doesn't want to live in New York.

1:21:04 He has kids?

1:21:06 He's gay.

1:21:09 Yeah, but you can have kids.

1:21:11 Well, I never heard that he has kids.

1:21:15 Well, that's interesting.

1:21:16 I never heard that he was married to a guy or a girl or anybody in between.

1:21:20 Hmm.

1:21:22 Well, now you make an interesting point.

1:21:24 I don't think I've ever heard that either.

1:21:26 Book of Knowledge.

1:21:27 Does Peter Thiel have kids and is he married?

1:21:30 Here we go.

1:21:32 Oh, Peter Thiel is what the Book of Knowledge understood.

1:21:37 Let's see if he figures that one out.

1:21:39 According to the Book of Knowledge, Peter Thiel is married to Matt Dan Zysen, and they have two daughters born through surrogacy.

1:21:47 Oh, there you go.

1:21:48 Thus, it has been written.

1:21:51 What do you know?

1:21:52 I guess I didn't know that.

1:21:54 He keeps it to himself.

1:21:56 On the down low.

1:21:57 He keeps it on the down low.

1:21:58 The down low.

1:21:59 Where's the little green gone from being the down low?

1:22:02 Well, the last thing you want is to be a homeowner in New York City.

1:22:07 Here's the latest from the socialist mayor, Mamdani.

1:22:10 Through our new citywide campaign, Fix the City, we will focus on the worst landlords in New York City.

1:22:16 When necessary, we will take aggressive legal action to remove negligent owners and property managers.

1:22:22 For buildings that have suffered chronic neglect, we will work to transfer ownership to responsible stewards.

1:22:28 Stewards that include community land trusts, non-profits, or even the tenants themselves.

1:22:34 We're going to remove you.

1:22:37 I love that.

1:22:38 That'll be fun to watch.

1:22:40 The court case will be fun to watch.

1:22:43 It's not going to get anywhere with that bull crap.

1:22:45 Well, so what was interesting is the response to the Jill Biden book and her interview.

1:22:57 And I think I had, let me just, I'll play.

1:23:01 I thought he was having a stroke.

1:23:02 Yeah, this is exactly.

1:23:07 Let me play that clip. This is the one that everyone's all up in arms about.

1:23:11 When she arrived at the first presidential debate of 2024, she saw that President Biden wasn't feeling well.

1:23:20 But then Joe always, even if he was off a little bit, he'd always rally.

1:23:26 And I thought, OK, so he'll get in there in that debate and he'll he'll be fine.

1:23:31 He's going to rally. But he got in there. He got into the debate and he didn't.

1:23:36 making sure that we're able to make every single solitary this was this was great i love this

1:23:42 package because that wasn't in the clip that everyone was posting on x they actually put in

1:23:47 the pieces and this was from cbs this morning they put in the pieces of the uh of the debate

1:23:54 and when you hear it it's just like wow it really was really really really bad debate and he didn't

1:24:04 Making sure that we're able to make every single solitary person eligible for what I've been able to do with the COVID, excuse me, with dealing with everything we have to do with, look, if we finally beat Medicare.

1:24:25 Were you horrified?

1:24:27 You remember how bad that was?

1:24:28 Yeah, I remember the whole thing.

1:24:30 It was hilarious.

1:24:32 Oh, I wasn't horrified. I was frightened because I had never, ever seen Joe like that before or since.

1:24:44 Yeah. Yes. Or he's never seen. Never, never.

1:24:50 Why did it happen? I don't know what happened.

1:24:53 I mean, when I as I watched it, I thought, oh, my God, he's having a stroke and it scared me to death.

1:25:00 And then he he never seemed to find himself, find himself.

1:25:06 Yeah. After that. But then I have to tell you, as we were walking out, you know, he said, I really and I'm not going to use the words because it's morning TV, but I really sort of messed up, didn't I?

1:25:21 And remember when we were talking about this and how that went down and how we were pretty sure that this whole thing was sabotaged, that, you know, they didn't give him his meds or a shot or whatever they typically.

1:25:33 Yeah, you know, it's a shot that snaps him out of zapped up.

1:25:36 And then when Jill Biden went to vote, she was wearing a red dress.

1:25:42 And I think we kind of floated the idea like, oh, maybe maybe she switched sides.

1:25:48 Maybe she's doing this to help Trump.

1:25:50 You know, there was there was there was a lot of weirdness about that whole period, because that was when, you know, it was obvious Trump was going to win and they did the switcheroo.

1:25:59 So now this book comes out and this book is the timing is interesting.

1:26:05 Why now? Why right now?

1:26:08 You know, why does her Jill Biden has a book and she's writing about all this stuff and it's kind of on the on the cusp of the midterms.

1:26:17 And it has thrown the Democrats for a loop.

1:26:22 And the example I have is the Pod Save America podcast.

1:26:27 And these are, aren't there two of those guys, the former speechwriters for Obama?

1:26:32 Yep, two of the speechwriters for Obama.

1:26:35 And they're kind of insider elites for the Democrat Party.

1:26:38 They like to present themselves as such.

1:26:41 So they are so mad, they do what all Democrats do when they're mad.

1:26:45 They start cussing like crazy.

1:26:47 so you're for one on a second just to back you up on this a little bit it would be then it would

1:26:53 be interesting that she has appeared on cbs but not the other networks good point good point well

1:27:01 these guys the insider elites to the democrat party are mad and cussing ensues i don't think

1:27:08 they appreciated being fucking lied to who didn't just lie about the performance but gaslighted

1:27:13 gaslit everyone and told us we were all overreacting bedwetters that their polls were

1:27:18 fine that the fucking debate was fine and now joe biden's like oh yeah we were lying the whole time

1:27:23 and they went after us personally yes i went from feeling kind of bad about the whole situation to

1:27:27 being like oh okay fuck you then the people who are saying why don't you let it go why are you

1:27:30 talking about this i didn't write a book and then whine about how joe biden oh you're talking over

1:27:35 the good parts here buying the whole time they went after us personally yes i went from feeling

1:27:39 kind of bad about the whole situation to be like oh okay fuck you then the people who are saying

1:27:44 why don't you let it go why are you talking about this i didn't make joe biden write a book and then

1:27:47 whine about how joe biden was mistreated by our podcast nancy pelosi the party right he was

1:27:54 mistreated the american people there was never a second of remorse or an apology for their utterly

1:28:00 disastrous decision and people don't trust the democratic party and it's not going to bite us

1:28:05 in the ass in the midterms but it will bite us in the ass in 2028 i promise no there you go there

1:28:10 they go this it's turmoil i tell you turmoil i can't think i can't think i can't think that

1:28:15 that's not something that was planned i kind of liked it i'm like yeah okay there's something

1:28:21 something going on there well i'm not gonna die like i'm liking that thesis we should keep our

1:28:27 Probably not.

1:28:27 I want to go back to the Reagan National Economic Forum.

1:28:32 General Besant did a whole keynote, which is, I'm not going to play it,

1:28:39 but the clips will be in the show notes so people can listen to it.

1:28:42 It was quite good.

1:28:45 He started with Reagan and how America does one thing right.

1:28:50 When we mess up, we admit it and we move on.

1:28:52 America was asleep.

1:28:54 That'll be the day.

1:28:57 but he sat down with a Kudlow and I have a couple of clips,

1:29:01 but Kudlow who cares about Kudlow?

1:29:04 Don't get,

1:29:05 don't get all you don't get panties in a bunch about Kudlow.

1:29:07 I'm telling you it was Kudlow and he's on Fox,

1:29:11 right?

1:29:11 Is he on Fox?

1:29:11 He is on Fox.

1:29:12 He's got a,

1:29:13 he's got a show on Fox that's on Fox business.

1:29:17 Let's get that right.

1:29:18 Yes.

1:29:18 Yes.

1:29:18 And he never talks about business.

1:29:20 Why would you?

1:29:21 And the two things that I'll pull out of this,

1:29:26 because General Besson mentioned something here,

1:29:30 and I was like, huh, okay, hold on a second.

1:29:32 We heard this briefly on episode 1872,

1:29:37 and it was the $250 bill.

1:29:41 Do you remember this?

1:29:43 Yeah, it was in the newsletter.

1:29:47 Yeah, right.

1:29:48 So you remember it, because it was,

1:29:49 you don't send me the newsletter anymore for review.

1:29:52 Why is that?

1:29:53 Because we have two guys copy editing it.

1:29:56 But see, then I don't know what's in the newsletter

1:29:59 because the newsletter goes to my enormous newsletters bin

1:30:02 because it has the word newsletter and unsubscribe in it,

1:30:05 and I forget to parse through my email,

1:30:09 and I feel bad that I haven't seen the newsletter.

1:30:12 Could you just send me?

1:30:13 We can send you the test.

1:30:14 Could you please?

1:30:15 Not the test.

1:30:16 Just send me, but I want it from you.

1:30:18 No, the test is the...

1:30:19 No, the test also goes to my newsletter bin.

1:30:22 Well, that's all we can do now.

1:30:24 The workflow has changed.

1:30:27 Workflow?

1:30:28 What, are you using AI for this thing, son?

1:30:31 By the way.

1:30:31 I'm just telling you.

1:30:32 Okay.

1:30:33 Geez, you got all these little gotchas, and you're, oh, you can't do this, you can't do that.

1:30:38 I send you an email, I get a kind of a response two weeks later, typically.

1:30:44 Yeah, I saw that video.

1:30:49 That guy's an idiot.

1:30:50 Okay, what video?

1:30:51 Oh, that video I sent you two weeks ago.

1:30:53 yes you send me videos to watch i'm a busy guy i'm producing my shit my part of the show

1:30:59 you're busy all you talked about at the beginning of the show is watching tv

1:31:02 yeah all right so the 250 bill what is your take what did you say in the newsletter about the 250

1:31:12 dollar bill nothing important i just said that trump wants to do one and no one's gonna do this

1:31:18 is not going to happen so the 250 bill first of all i called our bank and i said bank manager

1:31:26 his name is also adam hey adam if this thing comes out i want one reserve reserve one for me

1:31:33 i gotta have one of these so besan is asked about this and an interesting term came up so you were

1:31:40 mentioning in your talk um we are here at this conference celebrating 250th birthday of america

1:31:47 and looking ahead for the next couple of hundred years,

1:31:50 I can't help but ask you,

1:31:52 are we really going to have a $250 bill

1:31:55 with Donald Trump's picture on it?

1:31:57 The whole world is waiting.

1:31:59 So for the 150th, there was a Calvin Coolidge coin.

1:32:06 Oh, God, I love that.

1:32:07 With his image on it.

1:32:09 We are going to have the image of President Trump on a coin.

1:32:15 And there is a proposed legislation in the House to put President Trump on the $250 bill.

1:32:23 As Treasury Secretary, I am only mandated to do two things with the design of the currency.

1:32:29 At present, it has to be someone who is not living.

1:32:33 And it must say, in God we trust.

1:32:36 Do whatever else I want.

1:32:38 And I think that if you were the president, just like Calvin Coolidge was,

1:32:45 for the 150th if you're the president for the 250th president trump should be on there and you

1:32:51 know for any of you who are they want to geek out in monetary theory there's something called

1:32:59 seniorage so we print treasury prints currency the fed distributes it and we have about 2.5 2.6

1:33:07 trillion outstanding and that's a free loan so we put currency out there and we don't have to pay

1:33:13 any interest on it so with seniorage i i think that you know you get the 250 bill i think a lot

1:33:21 of people are just going to put those away and hold them i'm sure it's a good free one so i really

1:33:27 like this seniorage if he made enough of them it's an interest-free loan which they can write

1:33:34 treasury bonds against and get interest on yeah it's a great idea yeah it's an interesting idea

1:33:41 He's not going to get his picture on the bill.

1:33:42 It has to be approved by Congress.

1:33:45 Well, there's a bill in Congress to do this.

1:33:48 And you think guys like Thomas Massey and all these other pissed off Republicans are going to vote for it?

1:33:54 No.

1:33:54 You think a Democrat's going to vote for it?

1:33:57 No.

1:33:58 So they got what, a leeway of about five votes?

1:34:00 No, they're not going to get it through.

1:34:01 Well, you miss the other possibility.

1:34:05 You're dead.

1:34:06 Yeah.

1:34:06 Not living.

1:34:09 So he needs to be unalived, and then we got our money.

1:34:12 It's a lot of money.

1:34:13 Just saying.

1:34:15 So this isn't happening.

1:34:16 All right.

1:34:18 I might have to go to Polymarket on this one.

1:34:21 I think it will happen.

1:34:22 I think Besant will somehow make this happen.

1:34:24 Besant, he's the general, man.

1:34:28 He's got good, he wants to do it, but it's not going to happen.

1:34:32 He's got juice.

1:34:33 It's just like the moon shot.

1:34:34 He's got juice, man.

1:34:37 He's got juice, I'm telling you.

1:34:39 He can do it.

1:34:40 I like the idea, though.

1:34:42 The whole idea of...

1:34:43 Yeah, it's a cute idea.

1:34:45 And we need something other than the $100.

1:34:47 We used to have $500 bills.

1:34:49 Let's bring those back into play.

1:34:50 No, no one's going to...

1:34:51 You can't spend that.

1:34:52 We can barely even spend a hundy.

1:34:54 Hundo.

1:34:55 It's a hundy.

1:34:57 Rig D's always called it a hundy, not a hundo.

1:35:01 So we have a new obesity drug.

1:35:05 Oh, goodness.

1:35:07 We do?

1:35:08 Eli Lilly.

1:35:09 Oh, yeah.

1:35:10 Is this a pill?

1:35:11 I'll bet it's a pill.

1:35:12 The next generation of obesity medication is getting closer to reality.

1:35:16 Eli Lilly is studying a new drug.

1:35:18 Test results show it's more powerful, even more powerful, than the obesity shots and pills already on the market.

1:35:24 NPR Pharmaceuticals correspondent Sidney Lepkin is here to tell us about it.

1:35:28 Good morning.

1:35:28 Good morning.

1:35:29 I'm so glad you're the one who's going to pronounce the name of this new drug.

1:35:33 What is it?

1:35:34 The new drug is called Retatrutide.

1:35:37 So it's a weekly injection, just like Wegovy and Zetbound, but it's a little different.

1:35:41 Wegovy and Zetbound target the GLP-1 hormone.

1:35:44 This new drug works on three hormones, GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon, and that makes it more powerful.

1:35:51 When you say more powerful, you've got to sell me, because I have seen the results in human beings of the existing drugs.

1:35:57 How powerful is it?

1:35:58 Yeah, so Eli Lilly, the company that makes Red Atrutide, says that in the clinical trial, people taking it for 80 weeks lost an average of more than 70 pounds at the highest dose.

1:36:08 For comparison, patients taking the placebo over the same period, they lost five pounds.

1:36:13 Those were the latest findings from its phase three clinical study.

1:36:17 I asked Dr. Carolyn Francovilla, who is the vice president of the Obesity Medicine Association, what she thought.

1:36:23 I have goosebumps.

1:36:24 Of course, we've seen some preliminary data about this before, so it's not shocking.

1:36:30 But to have a medication that can have an average of 28% weight loss is truly game-changing.

1:36:37 This is essentially bariatric surgery, but in a weekly injection.

1:36:43 Wow. Wow. NPR bringing the shills in.

1:36:47 You think?

1:36:49 You know, I've been reading studies about GLP-1.

1:36:54 and what it really does is it takes away your joy oh yeah that's an interesting little tidbit that

1:37:03 seems to be documented quite well you don't want to do anything you're just a dud well in that

1:37:08 regard it's so it takes away your joy from eating food from drinking wine from smoking cigarettes

1:37:14 from snorting coke but it just takes away your joy i've heard sex too yes you know i don't really

1:37:21 want to have sex you know and all the other stuff about you know but you look so good

1:37:25 i don't care however in that regard it's a gateway drug to ssris because your joy is

1:37:32 gone you're going to be depressed boom lexapro interesting idea another the number three in

1:37:41 today's thesis count got to write them down so to compare i'm not writing nothing and mcgovey

1:37:46 lose around 20% of their body weight over time.

1:37:48 So if it ends up that this drug

1:37:50 is closer to the results for bariatric surgery,

1:37:53 that's significant because surgery is risky.

1:37:55 But nothing is without side effects.

1:37:57 Redetrutides were similar to other GLP-1 drugs

1:38:00 such as nausea and other gastrointestinal issues.

1:38:03 Is this drug good enough that people,

1:38:05 assuming it's approved by the FDA,

1:38:07 will want to switch to it?

1:38:08 You know, it won't be for everyone.

1:38:11 In fact, Frank Avila said

1:38:12 it may be too powerful for some people.

1:38:15 That's why having options is really important.

1:38:17 And now we have Zetbound, Wagovi, the Wagovi pill, Foundeo.

1:38:21 Here's Frankavilla again.

1:38:23 We're really going to have to think about, you know, moving forward, which medication makes sense for which patients.

1:38:28 But, I mean, if you would have told me this a decade ago, I would have thought it was a lie.

1:38:34 It's amazing.

1:38:35 Of course, a big issue is access.

1:38:37 The obesity drugs already in the market are expensive.

1:38:40 and a lot of insurance plans don't cover them, even though obesity is considered a chronic

1:38:45 condition. If you're willing to go outside your health insurance, obesity drugs are available at

1:38:50 a discount from Eli Lilly and Novo Nordisk directly, but a lot of people still can't afford

1:38:55 them. How expensive is the new drug likely to be? You know, we don't know yet. It's still early days

1:39:01 for Reta True Tide. The company hasn't published these study results yet in a peer-reviewed journal.

1:39:05 Reta True Tide is not yet approved by the Food and Drug Administration. Eli Lilly says it's

1:39:10 planning to submit it for approval by the end of the year and then it could be a while before the

1:39:14 fda does that said dr frankavilla has heard about people supposedly buying a knockoff version of

1:39:20 this drug off the internet she says don't do that you don't know what you're getting and it could

1:39:25 be dangerous oh you can make it at home oh well that's good to know i want to lead into a boots

1:39:31 on the ground that we got but it comes first with a pre preceded by a few clips regarding the price

1:39:39 of oil which no sooner had i said watch it come down then it came down and as we've been discussing

1:39:45 if we take a look at oil prices you can see down today moves off more than one percent both for

1:39:52 brent and wti again after the u.s and iranian negotiators apparently reaching an agreement to

1:39:58 extend the ceasefire on the month if we take a look at oil prices you can see big losses there

1:40:04 to the tune of 16 to nearly 19 percent for both WTI and Brent crude. Again, oil markets seem to

1:40:13 be looking past the wall. They seem to be optimistic that a deal would come through.

1:40:18 So we see those big double digit losses in the oil moves. I like how it's called losses when

1:40:24 everyone else is cheering. Yay. It's like 87 bucks now. The WTI. 87.76. And Brent is what, 91?

1:40:32 7.76. It's the 250th anniversary.

1:40:36 So the CEO of Chevron, who previously in the week would be saying, oh, it's going to be $200.

1:40:44 We're getting at the bottom. We're scraping the bottom of the barrel. It's no good.

1:40:49 He's on Bloomberg. A little different story.

1:40:51 Let's talk about the reason for this conversation in central banks right now, at least one of them.

1:40:55 Crude. On track, at least for now, for its steepest monthly decline since 2020.

1:41:00 optimism building for a resumption of traffic through the Strait of Hormuz.

1:41:03 As energy producers are highlighting the risk of an extended closure,

1:41:06 Chevron's been warning, quote, we will start to see physical shortages.

1:41:10 The CEO, Mike Wirth, I'm very pleased to say, joins us in the studio.

1:41:14 Mike, it's good to see you.

1:41:14 Good to see you, John.

1:41:15 Welcome back to the program, sir.

1:41:17 I get this question a lot.

1:41:18 You're the expert.

1:41:18 Help me answer it.

1:41:19 Why is crude at 100, at 90, and not close to the 200,

1:41:23 given this Strait's been shut for three months?

1:41:25 You know, it's a little hard to explain.

1:41:28 Because we just jacked the price up on you for no reason, that's why.

1:41:33 Markets tighten, inventories draw, demand for products around the world is still very strong.

1:41:39 I think there's this belief, and we're experiencing it again the last few days,

1:41:45 that the end is near, the conflict is nearly resolved, and flow through the strait will resume very quickly.

1:41:52 And that has kept the back end of the curve lower than it might otherwise have been.

1:41:57 And I think the psychology of the market has been this is closer to the end rather than the beginning.

1:42:02 Not just that, though.

1:42:03 There's some other things at play that your No Agenda show has mentioned.

1:42:06 How far are we away from having pipelines that connect some of these countries to the mainland and their production without having to traverse the strait at all?

1:42:14 Well, there's a couple that exist now that you've talked about in Saudi and the UAE.

1:42:20 The UAE sanctioned a project last year, which is about 50 percent complete, to get more of their production over to Fujairah and outside of the Strait.

1:42:28 So I think you'll see more of that, Lisa.

1:42:32 The one opportunity there is, countries like Iraq and Kuwait that are deeper up in the Gulf don't have access to those pipelines.

1:42:41 And for them, the route could be through the north and ultimately then into the Mediterranean, maybe through Turkey, where we see a pipeline comes out of the Caspian Sea over into the Mediterranean in Turkey.

1:42:55 And so I do think one of the responses to this will be infrastructure investments that will allow these energy flows to avoid the Strait of Hormuz.

1:43:03 And that's underway now, and I think you'll see that in the years that follow.

1:43:06 There's your Turkey, John. That's why Turkey was weaseling in on the deal.

1:43:11 Hey, boys, we got a pipeline over here.

1:43:13 Come on, bring it over here.

1:43:15 This is going to be fine.

1:43:16 Now, the problem is, July 4th, it's going to be a little tricky if the president somehow,

1:43:23 I don't think he can do it, but if Congress decides to remove the federal tax, which is

1:43:27 18 cents, that may make a difference.

1:43:30 We got boots on the ground from Sam, and Sam runs a gas station, an independent gas station

1:43:36 in king county washington and he does about a million gallons a year a thousand customers a day

1:43:42 he's an unbranded um and it was nice it was a nice note i put the whole note it had a lot of

1:43:50 information in it yeah now he's in washington state so he says you know we got hidden fees

1:43:55 78 cents per gallon at the pump 52 cents per gallon refinery carbon credits which has doubled

1:44:02 his operating costs um he says there's absolutely no difference between brand gasolina and unbranded

1:44:11 gasolina it's exact same stuff comes to the same pipeline the same mix everything is all the same

1:44:16 the main thing he wants everybody to know is that he's on two-week contracts so his gasolina will

1:44:24 not go up or down immediately it takes about two weeks because he just doesn't have the purchasing

1:44:29 power that the big brands have so trump has got to do something very very quickly in order to get

1:44:36 a significant drop by july 4th it's possible i guess and the other and the other thing he wants

1:44:41 everybody to know is please please please please please go to your unbranded gasolina station

1:44:47 and pay in cash gasolina i like the i like the sound of it do you mind no it sounds like code

1:44:56 or something you're trying to make a point about something or you're speaking pigeon spanish i'm

1:45:02 not sure what you're doing there well i guess if you say gas is so um is so confusing because gas

1:45:09 could be natural gas liquid natural i like gasoline so i just said you want me to say

1:45:13 gasoline will make you feel better gasoline well it's gasoline not gasolina well we also call

1:45:20 the secretary of state lubio well that's his name in china one of our producers sent me a note

1:45:28 said i heard some guys at the coffee shop then he literally called rubio lubio and i was going

1:45:34 to go over and give him an in the morning but i chickened out i'm like you would have been

1:45:38 guaranteed oh yeah absolutely no one else calls rubio lubio but our people yep anyway back to sam

1:45:45 he says please pay in cash he says it's it's so much it's so much better for the uh

1:45:53 well debit card same thing is there no processing fee for the gas station on a on a debit card

1:46:00 typically in california there's not because they have the debit card prices that is the

1:46:05 same as the cash price i think in i don't know if i'd have to look um hmm that's a good that's

1:46:13 a good point well we'll sam we'll have to send a follow-up but cash or debit card if possible

1:46:19 although i've i've paid with debit card the thing with debit cards is it gets declined half the time

1:46:26 and the other you know five out of ten times you use it your number gets jacked and you

1:46:31 get you have to get a new card debit cards are dangerous i have used a debit card for the last

1:46:38 25 years and i've had none of these issues and never gets declined tina always gets popped

1:46:43 always yeah her credit cards too it's amazing well it's her then that's what i keep telling

1:46:51 her she won't she won't believe me won't believe me um anyway so uh it's already gone down i think

1:46:59 i think gasoline went down by eight or ten cents i saw here in texas it's already down here well

1:47:06 you're in california you got special rules for everything but i you know we'll see it's going

1:47:14 to be tight it's going to be real tight it's got to do something quick in order to get it

1:47:17 get it down substantially you know it was newt gingrich i think new gingrich do i have that

1:47:23 clip still gingrich gingrich uh maybe i don't gingrich was saying the other day if trump

1:47:32 Trump can get gasoline in the, yeah, no, screw that.

1:47:39 I thought I had this clip.

1:47:41 If Trump can get gasoline down to about $3.50, which I don't think is possible,

1:47:47 he says the Republicans will win the midterms.

1:47:51 That's Newt Gingrich.

1:47:52 That's what he says.

1:47:53 There's a lot going on.

1:47:55 There's a lot going on.

1:47:56 There's a lot of change in electoral maps.

1:48:01 there's stuff going on you know they may pull it off i don't know they're not pulling off nothing

1:48:06 okay you want to we want to put a bet on it want to put a bet on it

1:48:10 okay so what would the bet be for one dollar of course no well okay i can do a dollar bet

1:48:17 but what would the bet be for i mean what would be the structure of the bet

1:48:21 okay um republicans keep the house and the senate

1:48:24 and you're gonna put a dollar on that well i can do a buck 50

1:48:30 i will do a dollar i'm a podcaster man uh let's listen to a little npr's plug for one of their

1:48:40 shows ai gods you like this one millions of people are already turning to ai for spiritual guidance

1:48:48 asking it moral questions seeking comfort even chatting with ai versions of their gods

1:48:54 yeah this is this a full show of their gods how many people have gods oh the

1:49:00 hindus i think hindus have gods yeah they have multiple gods um is this for a show or an episode

1:49:10 must be for no it's for a podcast for one episode of a podcast yeah i think well they have a whole

1:49:17 ai thing they're doing yeah well this comes on the heels of the pope's encyclical

1:49:22 well the pope has some negative things to say about ai yeah you know i listened to it he doesn't

1:49:30 know what he's talking about i'm sorry he's just you know like well it's horrible and yeah i

1:49:38 completely agree that i've always said the chat bots no matter what you're asking it for

1:49:44 spiritual advice uh for uh you know relationship advice spiritual advice for from a computer

1:49:53 hello there is a large amount of people who who do not want to speak to their pastor about certain

1:50:00 things who are turning to ai chat bots particularly glue.com gloo never heard of it oh they're pretty

1:50:09 big glue

1:50:11 G-L-O-O dot or maybe dot

1:50:13 A-I

1:50:13 which is a specific

1:50:16 Christian faith based A-I

1:50:19 and they are pouring their

1:50:21 hearts out to these chat

1:50:23 bots and I think it's a very bad idea

1:50:25 but there are people

1:50:27 don't want to speak to a human being about

1:50:29 things anymore

1:50:29 you can't say that this is

1:50:33 not happening that people aren't talking

1:50:34 it's obviously happening or they wouldn't do a whole podcast

1:50:36 about it I got another plug from

1:50:39 an NPR show for something I want to ask you about.

1:50:42 Okay.

1:50:42 ID Tech.

1:50:44 ID Tech.

1:50:46 All right, here we go.

1:50:47 This message comes from ID Tech,

1:50:49 the original tech camp.

1:50:51 Experience Camp Crunch Labs IRL,

1:50:53 BattleBots, and more.

1:50:55 Held at Stanford, UC Berkeley,

1:50:57 and San Francisco State.

1:50:58 Hold on, I've got to listen to that again.

1:51:00 Hold on, hold on.

1:51:00 This message comes from ID Tech,

1:51:02 the original tech camp.

1:51:04 Experience Camp Crunch Labs IRL,

1:51:06 BattleBots, and more.

1:51:08 Held at Stanford, UC Berkeley, and San Francisco State.

1:51:11 Yeah, it's a summer camp, ID Tech.

1:51:13 It says it's the original tech camp.

1:51:15 Since when?

1:51:17 Well, when's the last time you went to camp?

1:51:20 So this thing's all over the country.

1:51:26 I looked it up.

1:51:26 ID Tech, yeah.

1:51:28 It's huge.

1:51:29 It's monstrous.

1:51:30 It's done by some couple.

1:51:31 That sounds pretty cool.

1:51:32 What do you do there at ID Tech?

1:51:35 I don't know.

1:51:36 I have no idea.

1:51:37 you learn how to do a battle bot a bottle they say battle bot or bottle bot it must be battle

1:51:43 you know the robots that fight yeah that show has gotten boring i look at it i'm like

1:51:50 okay i got another one for you this from kqed gender expansive cuts non-profit serving girls

1:51:58 which is kind of funny just by itself non-profit serving girls and gender expansive youth in the

1:52:04 Bay Area and L.A., lost $113 million in funding last year under the Trump administration.

1:52:11 That's according to a new report from the non-profit Alliance for Girls,

1:52:15 which calls the loss an existential crisis. Chantal Hildebrand is the organization's

1:52:22 executive director. So either they've shrunk and are no longer able to serve as many young people

1:52:29 as they were before or in their entirety because there's just no more funding for it so that means

1:52:36 that it's also less of an investment in the actual young people as well as not having services in

1:52:42 some of our communities that are the most vulnerable she says non-profits need more

1:52:47 public support in the form of volunteers and donations the the money supply from the government

1:52:54 got cut off that's what it sounds like to me yeah but what's it what is it goes to gender expansive

1:52:59 what does that even mean well it's on the girls it's for girls but what what money are we talking

1:53:05 about what i i know kids nobody's got there there's no money going into their pocket they

1:53:12 haven't got any special places to do anything what are they talking about this is bullcrap i don't

1:53:17 know this is sort of creation did you look it up some no there's nothing to look up i can't figure

1:53:22 it out oh they took they cut 110 million dollars away from what i don't know okay well you seem

1:53:32 very upset by it i'm very upset about this this is just constant waste of money there's a lot of

1:53:38 money being wasted definitely and what's gender expansive i i don't know i i would expect you

1:53:48 brought the clip you would have looked it up i looked up i couldn't figure it out well then i

1:53:53 don't have the answer what gender okay let's go to another annoying clip i can get mad about it

1:53:57 what is he just is this john's get i'm in a bad mood why climate why climate why why are you in

1:54:05 a bad mood because climate because the donations are just terrible today it's embarrassing there

1:54:13 it is. In a controversial move, state regulators have approved major changes to a key state climate

1:54:18 program. California's Air Resources Board voted yesterday to create a $4 billion fund for big

1:54:25 polluters to invest in decarbonization projects. But climate, transit, and affordable housing

1:54:32 advocates worry it might mean significantly less money for their programs. Judson True

1:54:37 is with the san francisco municipal transit agency transit including uni is crucial to

1:54:44 achieving our climate protection goals and ensuring affordability and this vote is a setback

1:54:52 for both of those causes the decision comes months after industries warned that compliance

1:54:58 with current rules would drive them out of the state and increase energy prices okay

1:55:04 i don't know you're just playing stuff that makes you mad yeah i know i got a bunch of it too well

1:55:12 how about this one no no no no i gotta stop you i have to stop you from hurting yourself

1:55:16 you just your blood pressure's up i want to ask you a question after i played this clip

1:55:21 this is uh pratt pratt with all the cool commercials uh he's uh i think this is

1:55:29 uh tom lamas namath lamas governor gavin newsom just endorsed karen bass today saying quote

1:55:34 the work karen bass is doing in la is making our entire state what a joke what it's a joke that

1:55:41 karen bass is doing good work let's finish the governor gavin newsom just endorsed karen bass

1:55:46 today saying quote the work karen bass is doing in la is making our entire state stronger with

1:55:51 an 18 decline in homelessness while a group nationally historic drops in violent crime

1:55:55 boosting film production in L.A. and protecting our communities against ICE.

1:55:59 She has my full support for re-election.

1:56:01 Do you think that endorsement is going to help Karen Bass?

1:56:03 I think that endorsement, these two are co-conspirators.

1:56:06 They're criminal partners in the negligence that led to 7,000 houses burning down.

1:56:11 You think Governor Gavin Newsom's a criminal?

1:56:12 In my opinion, it's criminal negligence when you fail your taxpayers and they burn alive

1:56:19 because of choices you made with your state park that you're responsible for.

1:56:23 Same with Mayor Karen Bass.

1:56:25 Again, it's my opinion.

1:56:27 I believe if you let people burn alive because of your negligence, that becomes criminal negligence.

1:56:33 Now, first of all, Pratt is very smart here because Lamas tries to nail him on that.

1:56:39 Do you think he's a criminal?

1:56:40 Are you going to say he's a criminal right now?

1:56:42 And Pratt goes, now, in my opinion, you are criminally negligent.

1:56:48 So he's very smart.

1:56:49 No, Pratt's sharp.

1:56:51 I, however, do not think he's going to win.

1:56:55 okay he's not they're going to cheat they're going to steal whatever it is he will not win

1:57:03 i just don't see california is too rotten for him to win do you think i have the opposite opinion

1:57:10 because i've heard this before okay my opinion is that they can't afford

1:57:14 to rig the election against him because he's got too much momentum

1:57:19 and it's going to become obvious that the state is full of uh scams and it and it would cause a

1:57:30 backlash so they can't take a chance it's just a minor office it's mayor of la who cares and karen

1:57:36 bass isn't endeared herself to anybody she's a you know a communist for all practical purposes

1:57:42 so they're gonna let him win hmm well if they let him win he will probably fail spectacularly

1:57:50 you've got to think the whole city council the whole system is completely rotten and corrupt

1:57:55 to the core how how long is uh what is the tenure for a los angeles mayor how many years is that

1:58:02 i don't know ask the robot i think it's four years i'll ask the robot book of knowledge

1:58:07 how many years does the mayor of los angeles serve i'm glad we have the robot today it's

1:58:13 getting a lot of good use out of the robot okay according to the book of knowledge the mayor of

1:58:19 los angeles serves a four-year term with a limited two consecutive terms okay four years that's

1:58:25 it has been written four years it's going to be very hard for me if he wins very hard to get

1:58:33 anything done but i i don't know they're they are insane people they're crazy well yeah i i have to

1:58:40 agree with that the second thing which is another reason they'll let him win because he can't do

1:58:43 that much damage or he can't damage he can't fix the damage that easily with the city council being

1:58:50 a bunch of boneheads this happens in san francisco the city council is completely out of control

1:58:55 yeah what why do you still live that you love it i think you really i think you just love having

1:59:02 horrible people i don't live in san francisco i don't live in los angeles i live in a small

1:59:05 community yeah with people who read the new york times all up and down the street i know it's great

1:59:11 and then in new jersey um it seems like no sooner do we have a democrat this is my old state new

1:59:20 jersey i love new jersey uh lots of friends still in new jersey so they bring in a democrat governor

1:59:26 and right away she's doing exactly what the party wants oh let's stir up some crap let's make ice

1:59:32 look bad let's make trump look bad all the people are wearing cafes on the street this you know i

1:59:40 haven't seen the professionally printed signs yet but they're coming tensions continue to flare

1:59:44 outside the delaney hall immigration detention center as newark by the way is not exactly the

1:59:49 same as new jersey newark new jersey protesters who say living conditions in the building are

1:59:55 inhumane clashing with immigration enforcement supporters Saturday morning. This following a

2:00:02 night of violent encounters between ICE officers and demonstrators being met with tear gas and

2:00:07 pepper spray Friday. Just hours earlier, New Jersey Governor Mickey Sherrill announced plans

2:00:13 to set up a safe zone for protesters to avoid a repeat of the chaos that enveloped the streets

2:00:18 of minneapolis between ice agents and american citizens just months ago we know what ice has

2:00:25 done in other states and we know american citizens lost their lives kill people and i refuse to let

2:00:31 that happen in new jersey the escalation and protest hold on 300 miles can you back it that's

2:00:38 that woman has is in the same milieu as pam bondy she sounds just like her oh interesting let's

2:00:44 listen again with a critical ear we know what ice has done in other states and we know american

2:00:48 citizens lost their lives and i refuse to let that happen in new jersey yeah that's that's a good

2:00:55 observation maybe the same law school the escalation and protest comes after 300 migrants

2:01:02 went on a hunger and labor strike inside the detention center due to poor living conditions

2:01:06 including reports of detainees being burned by scalding hot showers and maggot infested food

2:01:13 here's what i don't understand they want a hunger and labor strike are they in the

2:01:18 did they have to work in the detention center were they making ikea furniture

2:01:21 maybe license plates for days ice has refused most of our requests raising serious questions

2:01:31 about what it's trying to hide from public view yesterday the new jersey department of health

2:01:36 sought to inspect the site but it was denied full access as well i have a court order here that

2:01:43 allows me to come in here come the new york representatives come in to make a big scene

2:01:48 out of stuff these are people aren't even representing new jersey wednesday a group of

2:01:53 u.s lawmakers went to delaney hall to see the conditions for themselves and hear from detainees

2:01:58 it's mega infested i tell you the women told us that they were being mistreated mistreated and

2:02:06 then women there are under attack oh and then they're under attack it's a quick pivot and they

2:02:13 gave us a list of demands this facility this detention center must shut down department of

2:02:46 on our team now that's cool making the podcasters cuss it's amazing it's amazing making podcasters

2:02:55 cuss yeah yeah all right uh i've got a couple other little things that how about that let's

2:03:01 finish something light okay again of course a homeschooled indian uh is the spelling bee champ

2:03:09 yeah this is good nearly 300 spellers competing at this week's scripts national spelling bee

2:03:16 after nine exciting rounds judges declaring a tie prompting a dramatic spell off a lightning round

2:03:23 90 seconds to spell as many words as possible.

2:03:26 Then, the anxious wait for the winner to be announced.

2:03:46 The spell-off results are in.

2:03:48 Shrey, during the spell-off, you correctly spelled a total of 32 words.

2:03:53 you correctly spelled a total of 25 words and that means that shrey you are the two

2:04:07 14 year old shrey perique an eighth grader from rancho cucamonga california

2:04:13 declared champion correctly spelling 32 words in the final round a new record

2:04:19 that's great there was one of those uh videos going around like ucla students who can't spell

2:04:27 which which is funny you know actually i have it here um my favorite stuff it was it was quite

2:04:36 funny um because it was an ad but you know that's not the way it's presented on x because as we know

2:04:42 on x everything is fake and gay so here it is ucla oh hold on you see by the way ucla people

2:04:53 could never spell well there's that uh so ucla couldn't students struggle with basic reading

2:05:00 the sentence is the beneficiary tried to embellish the extortion scheme here it is

2:05:07 The Beneficary tried to ambush the extortion scheme?

2:05:19 What does that mean?

2:05:20 I don't even know.

2:05:21 Beneficary tried to ambush the extortion scheme?

2:05:35 What does that mean?

2:05:37 So, it's actually a part of a commercial for Unishack off-campus housing,

2:05:45 but people post that as, look at these idiots in California.

2:05:48 You can't trust anything.

2:05:49 Well, what are you going to do?

2:05:51 You can't trust anything.

2:05:52 They're idiots in California.

2:05:53 You can't trust anything anywhere.

2:05:55 However, you can trust the value-for-value system.

2:05:59 Now, if John and I can trust it today, it's a different story.

2:06:03 But you can trust that your no agenda show always delivers you value without any commercials, without any corporate interests or anything like that.

2:06:13 In fact, we, to our detriment, speak our mind continuously.

2:06:17 And we've done this for 18 years.

2:06:19 We've been through the cycle.

2:06:20 We know how it works.

2:06:21 But we are always proud to say that we thank you for your courage.

2:06:25 The man who put the sea and Charles in charge.

2:06:27 Say hello to my friend on the other end.

2:06:29 The one, the only, Mr. John C. DeMoraire.

2:06:34 Well, in the morning to you, Mr. Adam Curry.

2:06:36 Also, in the morning, all ships, the sea boots, and the ground feet,

2:06:38 and the air subs, and the 100 dames and knights out there.

2:06:40 In the morning to the trolls in the troll room.

2:06:41 Let me count you.

2:06:42 There we go.

2:06:43 That's pretty good.

2:06:45 1728, Peak Trollage, listening to us live on noagendastream.com

2:06:52 and in the modern podcast apps, which is the only app you want to use.

2:06:55 This is from podcastapps.com.

2:06:58 You know, there was this whole group who came out of secret hiding.

2:07:04 They've been meeting in secret.

2:07:07 And they call themselves AMP.

2:07:10 Ant?

2:07:12 AMP.

2:07:13 AMP.

2:07:13 A-N-T?

2:07:14 A-M-P. Alpha Mike Papa.

2:07:16 Oh, AMP.

2:07:17 AMP, yes.

2:07:18 And AMP stands for Alliance for Measurement in Podcasting.

2:07:25 Oh, okay.

2:07:28 And so they had a secret offsite, which they called, get ready for it, the Amp Accords.

2:07:35 Oh, brother.

2:07:37 Yeah.

2:07:38 And they have a website, AmpAccords.com.

2:07:40 A billion dollars of demand is sitting on the sidelines, which is why leading platforms, advertisers, publishers, and creators have come together to create the first podcasting measurement framework.

2:07:52 So I'll skip right to the point of this.

2:07:57 you know podcast measurement sucks it's based on downloads it's no good and uh so these guys want

2:08:04 that youtube money they want to get the youtube money because youtube is calling their videos

2:08:11 podcasts so they're trying to redefine what a podcast they're doing it all wrong doing it all

2:08:18 wrong and it's spotify sirius xm you know draft kings better help there's the advertisers libsyn

2:08:25 podscribe and uta the uta creators union they're doing it all wrong and this is what i've told

2:08:33 but said if you want to have the same type of measurement as youtube to get your youtube money

2:08:39 you've got to cut the podcast apps in on the deal and i don't understand why people have such

2:08:46 trouble seeing this every media always puts the the distributor in the deal television

2:08:54 radio, newspapers, podcast apps, not in the deal.

2:08:57 The podcast apps know exactly who heard the commercial.

2:09:01 They know exactly how many people skipped.

2:09:04 They have what they call first-party data.

2:09:07 If you cut the podcast apps in on the deal, you're going to be golden.

2:09:11 You'll win everything.

2:09:12 You'll win all the YouTube money.

2:09:13 I don't know if they'll listen to me.

2:09:15 Well, let me think.

2:09:18 And by the way, I wasn't—

2:09:19 You're right.

2:09:19 They won't listen to you.

2:09:21 I wasn't invited to the off-site either.

2:09:24 which is, as you know, always baffling.

2:09:27 Always baffling.

2:09:29 You don't know Jack.

2:09:30 I don't know what I'm talking about.

2:09:32 Get a modern podcast app.

2:09:34 Not only will you be notified when we go live,

2:09:36 many of the No Agenda Nation podcasts go live.

2:09:39 And then not just us, lots of podcasters

2:09:41 are now starting to do this going live,

2:09:43 and you'll then be notified,

2:09:44 and you can listen to it live in your podcast app.

2:09:47 But probably more important,

2:09:48 within 90 seconds of publishing the podcast,

2:09:50 you will be notified that it's in your podcast app,

2:09:53 ready to enjoy just ready to enjoy don't mess around with those legacy apps now i mentioned

2:10:00 value for value this is what we've been living by for 18 years it's a roller coaster ride it's up

2:10:05 it's down um when it's up we're happy when it's down we're not happy today is not the happiest

2:10:10 of days and uh please go on x and tell me the reason why is because i'm not critical of trump

2:10:17 and john is because you and john is not hating on the jews and that's the main reason and john

2:10:24 is no longer critical after his open heart surgeries yeah i'm too nice a guy too much love

2:10:30 yeah no uh we are and people like you've changed you're a christian yeah i've definitely changed

2:10:37 but i don't think i've changed in my criticisms it's just people don't like it when you don't

2:10:42 criticize someone they you have to criticize everybody everybody i criticize you and then

2:10:48 candace owens she's the one that's taken our audience people are being hypnotized by candace

2:10:56 owens yeah and you know nlp never hurt and tim dillon

2:11:02 tim dillon you don't know anything you're watching you're watching those dumb chicks

2:11:11 on that podcast.

2:11:13 I love the dumb chicks.

2:11:14 Oh, now there's my,

2:11:15 this is what I've been waiting for.

2:11:16 Finally, I have my opening for the show.

2:11:22 Perfect.

2:11:22 Thank you.

2:11:23 Value for value comes in many different ways.

2:11:28 We love when people support us.

2:11:30 We got some great boots on the ground today.

2:11:31 Perfect example.

2:11:32 Thank you for helping us with clips.

2:11:34 Thank you, Clip Collector, Steve Jones.

2:11:37 He may have done your three by three.

2:11:38 I don't know if he did,

2:11:39 but Steve is very good at stuff like that.

2:11:41 We appreciate it.

2:11:42 People giving us encouragement.

2:11:44 Even some of the negative stuff

2:11:47 can sometimes be encouraging.

2:11:48 It's like, oh, I'm going to delete this.

2:11:50 Now I'm encouraged.

2:11:52 Thank you.

2:11:53 Oh, I'm going to block that guy.

2:11:54 I'm encouraged.

2:11:55 If you have nine followers

2:11:56 and you've changed your screen name five times since 2019,

2:12:00 you're getting blocked

2:12:01 because you're a bot or you're an NPC.

2:12:03 And the other way that people can support us

2:12:07 with their time, talents, and treasures

2:12:09 by creating artwork it does work with prompting some people do actual work still with photoshop

2:12:15 which is appreciated and some just really really don't do a lot of work at all but then still will

2:12:21 win and that example is darren o'neill who brought us the artwork for episode 1872 which aptly was

2:12:28 titled lunar economy we saw the lunar economy blow up on the launch pad and uh and once again

2:12:34 the no agenda show predictions are on on par you said it you said it's going to blow up it's not

2:12:40 going to happen it'll be delayed and literally two days later something blows up and the moon

2:12:46 shot is delayed but why listen to us so darren made the cars for podcasters which was cute it

2:12:56 was it's cute it's very cute it's a different ai model i had not seen the crayon model yet

2:13:02 Have we seen this a lot, this particular?

2:13:04 I think we may have seen it once or twice.

2:13:07 Possibly.

2:13:08 But it's just well done.

2:13:10 I mean, Darren is the master at this.

2:13:12 Darren is quite the master at this.

2:13:14 I don't know how, you know, it's amazing in some situations.

2:13:18 Like what?

2:13:18 How do you get that to work?

2:13:21 He's very good at it.

2:13:23 Lots of people prompting away.

2:13:25 Oh, my gosh.

2:13:27 I did enjoy that it didn't have our names on it.

2:13:30 At least that I can see, which is the No Agenda.

2:13:33 Over next to Darren's piece, there's a Waffle House done in the style of No Agenda.

2:13:38 I kind of thought that was a cute piece.

2:13:41 And I like the kids sucking on the...

2:13:44 Yeah, the moon helium.

2:13:45 Yeah, the moon helium.

2:13:46 I think we debated between moon helium, cars for podcasters, and I think...

2:13:53 Oh, you like the moon base by Darren.

2:13:55 That's what you like.

2:13:55 You like the No Agenda moon base?

2:13:58 I like the helium one and the cars.

2:14:00 I think you may have been the one that pushed the cars one.

2:14:03 I wanted the rumble waffle, and you said, that's racist, by Scaramanga.

2:14:09 Yeah, it was racist.

2:14:11 It's not racist.

2:14:12 I said, who is fighting at these teen takeovers?

2:14:15 Yeah, but it doesn't say teen takeover.

2:14:17 It just says rumble waffle, as though it was a waffle house with a fight going on inside.

2:14:22 Well, okay.

2:14:23 Not to make teen takeovers at waffle house.

2:14:27 get your ass kicked ever been to one of those places yeah i've not been to an awful house in

2:14:32 a long time well the waffle waffle house has got a which is is good i would recommend going there

2:14:40 but there's a lot of rough customers in there rough customers and they uh i'd say a uh honorary

2:14:48 mention to nestworks who once again tried to do something non-ai uh didn't quite make it uh he

2:14:54 has this new style with kind of a line and you know he's you know what style would you is algo

2:15:02 tricks what style would you call that because it's minimalist minimalist yeah didn't quite cut it but

2:15:08 it's uh we we appreciate the fact that people do this at all it gives us good feedback to know what

2:15:13 you liked and what struck a chord uh during the podcast that's that's also that's one another good

2:15:19 reason for doing some artwork it gives us some some feedback in an interesting way and you can

2:15:25 upload that at noagendaartgenerator.com and we appreciate what everybody does um and thank you

2:15:31 very much darren o'neill that keeps them up in the standings now we will go to the treasure portion

2:17:08 You've got karma.

2:17:09 If we have a no agent, this is an advertising opportunity.

2:17:13 Can you put stickers or embroidery on the sumo thong?

2:17:16 No, you can't put anything on it.

2:17:19 The best you could do is have a tattoo, and I don't think they like that.

2:17:22 What, the sumo association?

2:17:27 I've watched sumo for probably 40 years, and I've never seen a tattoo on a sumo wrestler.

2:17:35 You have not been keeping us up to speed on the most recent sumo developments.

2:17:39 I know.

2:17:40 Opa Laika, you're right.

2:17:42 Thank you, sir, by his grace.

2:17:43 Ryan Wickenhagen in Townsend, Georgia, 275.

2:17:56 Dear John and Adam, I decided to make my contribution quarterly

2:17:59 as opposed to my random here and there donations

2:18:02 because I'm coming more and more to the conclusion

2:18:05 that your show might be one of the few places left

2:18:09 where the middle still exists.

2:18:13 You call things for what they are,

2:18:16 regardless of which side it comes from,

2:18:19 and that is greatly appreciated and sorely needed.

2:18:23 How come this guy's on post on my Twitter timeline?

2:18:27 I get nothing but the opposite.

2:18:30 No agenda.

2:18:32 Sounds like you have an agenda.

2:18:34 jew agenda israel agenda trump agenda yeah that's what i get do agenda

2:18:40 you guys have built the most important component of any civilization community

2:18:46 you've allowed there to be a middle and i have a phlegm you okay you want me to take over do you

2:18:54 need me to jump in hold on hold on hold on i'm gonna mute you while you do that i'll continue

2:18:59 you well john is uh i'll just wait here for a second and are you done component no i'm not good

2:19:05 i muted you i muted you i didn't want the phlegm to come through go ahead no i got that i got to

2:19:09 i muted myself oh i cleared my throat good you've allowed there to be a middle and if there's an

2:19:14 able to look to the left or the right to make a choice then we have no choice and if we have no

2:19:19 choice we have no freedom if we have no choice we have no freedom so we go in the middle the

2:19:25 No agenda show might be the only thing left that can save the republic.

2:19:29 I'm grateful for you both.

2:19:32 I'm writing my congressman to demand we have Adam and John's face on the $250 bill instead of Trump.

2:19:38 That means we have to be dead.

2:19:41 Yeah, we'll put it off.

2:19:43 I thank you literally for your courage and for your attention to this matter.

2:19:48 You're welcome.

2:33:32 typical voice that we've heard a million times they also have very targeted no agenda lyrics

2:33:38 very subliminal every single end of show mix tells you to donate it's very subliminal so make sure

2:41:09 I'm still the king of the cynical view

2:41:14 To rip the media in two

2:41:17 They want the old buzzkill

2:41:19 Well, open your ears

2:41:22 I've been standardizing misery

2:41:33 You can't bypass the premium

2:41:36 Venom I made

2:42:13 Yeah, yeah, yeah, uh, yeah

2:42:16 Trump at the table dropping cold facts

2:42:19 No cap, clean, Navy gone

2:42:21 Air Force junk, whole regime running on vapor steam

2:42:25 Missiles turn to scrap, economy flatline

2:42:27 Last drop in the tank, supreme

2:42:29 But the corporate press got a whole different scheme

2:42:32 Lean, they leave a deal unclear

2:42:34 Caveats stacked like rubble in the bombing scene

2:42:37 Moolah's desperate, nah, they call it fragile

2:42:39 Twist the narrative machine

2:42:41 Tankers fuming harder than the targets that got creamed

2:42:44 Media matrix spinning copium while Iran's out of gasoline

2:42:48 They're negotiating on fumes

2:42:50 But the media's huffing

2:42:52 Copium, clown world carousel

2:42:55 Twisting every single

2:42:57 Zoom, zoom

2:42:58 Doom, doom, doom

2:43:00 The meme is the message

2:43:01 See how they run the game

2:43:04 No agenda

2:43:06 Nothing ever stays the same

2:43:10 Take down, play the leverage

2:43:11 Call it reckless, just beating

2:43:12 Ignore the wrecked fleet

2:43:14 And the sanctions that completed the beating

2:43:16 It's all about the oil

2:43:17 Straight, close, prices heated

2:43:18 Press, stay in full

2:43:19 Cope retreating, deleting every tweet

2:43:21 And WAPO footnotes flying

2:43:23 Sources they repeating, reality screaming

2:43:25 Iran's been thoroughly beaten

2:43:27 Left and right boats spinning in their

2:43:29 Bias centrifuge, but only one side's

2:43:31 Car actually ran out of juice

2:43:33 Fumes, it's over 90 seconds

2:43:35 Hold up, we're not done
