Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Adam Currie, John C.
DeVora.
It's Monday, June 22nd, 2025.
It's your award-winning give-on-Asian-media
assassination episode 1775.
This is no agenda.
Stop the hammering!
We're broadcasting live from the heart of the
Texas snow country here in FEMA region number

(00:21):
six in the morning, everybody.
I'm Adam Currie.
And from northern Silicon Valley, where you've heard
of Bunker Busters, we're the Bunker Busters.
I'm John C.
DeVorak.
It's crackpot and buzzkill in the morning.
I see what you did there.
I see.
Well, we learned a couple of new terms.
These military guys, they're always funny with their

(00:42):
acronyms.
We've got the MOP.
That was a new one.
I didn't, let me play this to get
us started.
One issue about a possible attack is the
30,000 pound bomb that is part of
the U.S. arsenal.
It is known as the Bunker Buster.
Although it has been tested, it's never been
used in war.
ABC's Martha Raddatz explains.
Come on, Martha.
This bomb, the massive ordnance penetrator or MOP,

(01:03):
can only be- I think I saw
one of those in a shop in Amsterdam,
actually.
I've seen these MOPs in these places.
Yeah, you know what I mean?
Place stinks.
The 30,000 pound bomb can penetrate deep
into rock and has been tested successfully numerous
times but has never been used before on
the battlefield.
The U.S. has used the smaller MOAB,

(01:26):
the 22,000 pound bomb with success blowing
up caves in Afghanistan.
But if the president decides the U.S.
will hit the Fordow nuclear facility, it will
be the first time it's used.
So there are some concerns about how effective
it would be in an actual strike since
much is not known about Fordow but there
would likely be several of these bombs launched

(01:47):
because of the uncertainty.
And of course, the U.S. still wants
to get all its assets into the region.
Our thanks to Martha Raddatz for that.
A key concern about the bomb is the
potential release of radioactive material.
The International Atomic Energy Agency says the hazard
will be limited to the areas that are
directly around the nuclear sites.
Yes, so this has been the topic.

(02:09):
So they didn't take any chances on whether
this thing worked.
They used 14 of them.
Yeah, just in case, which as many-
Just in case, well, you know.
Yeah, which as many people noticed sounded very
familiar.
Some preconditioning was done.
Your target is an impact point less than
three meters wide.
The two-seat aircraft will paint the target

(02:30):
with a laser bullseye.
The first pair will breach the reactor by
dropping a laser-guided bomb on an exposed
ventilation hatch.
This will create an opening for the second
pair.
That's miracle number one.
The second team will deliver the kill shot
and destroy the target.

(02:52):
That's miracle number two.
Of course, that is from the latest Top
Gun series.
And it kind of made me think, you
know, this mop thing may not- Who
knows what they used?
We weren't there.
We didn't see it.
There's no video.
Maybe this was all predictive programming to think
- make us think that they have one
of these.
I don't even know.
I don't know what it was.
Maybe it was a mini-nuke for all

(03:13):
I know.
You know, this sounded all kind of movie
-esque.
The way this went down.
Well, it was pretty interesting.
I will say that.
Yes, and- I have to put-
There's a serious eclipse from last night.
Can I just say- She came back
on- Before you start, I just want

(03:35):
people to know.
We are going to treat this like everything
else.
Which will include some humor.
Because if we don't have a war, it's
all great.
If we do, we're not all gone.
That's also good.
Coincidentally- I'm not expecting that.
No, neither am I.
Coincidentally, this morning, I got my own massive

(03:57):
ordinance attack.
Do you remember- Oh, well, maybe we
should stop my idea here and listen to
this.
Because it already sounds more interesting than any
clip.
I don't know about that.
Somebody unleashed a subscribe bot on me again.
Oh, really?
Now, you remember this happened previously?

(04:18):
Oh, yeah, this happened.
This was a nightmare for you.
A nightmare.
Yeah, so we went to church.
I came back.
There were over 500- Thanks for subscribing
emails.
Thank you very much.
Oh, this is great.
Hey, reset your password.
Hey, confirm your email.
Now, these things, they used to cost money.
They may be easier to do now with

(04:39):
some large language model systems that can access
SMTP.
That's interesting, yes.
May be easier to do.
And luckily, we have Void Zero.
And that's when I switched my email server
to his care.
Because I'm like, bro, I can't handle this.
This is blowing my system up.
This is the problem with the- Yes.

(05:00):
Yeah, I mean- I find this deplorable
that you can't do your own email.
You need a pro.
Well, okay.
Now, luckily, I had set up a couple
of filters back in the day when this
happened.
Because essentially, I can't subscribe to any more
newsletters with my email address.

(05:22):
Because still for years, I'm still getting newsletters
that I can't unsubscribe from.
Because half of these things don't work.
And the unsubscribe doesn't work.
And they don't want to unsubscribe you.
So I literally can't subscribe to a newsletter
with my own email address.
So it did take a lot of those

(05:42):
and shuttle them off and delete them.
But as I was thinking about it, do
you remember the time frame when this last
happened?
No, I don't.
When someone was so mad at me because
I was so wrong.
I don't know.
I know.
But this could be any- Oh, it
was COVID?
COVID.
When we were saying COVID was- I

(06:02):
thought it was before that.
No, no, because I remember exactly where we
were.
We were in the house in Austin, new
house.
And we had just moved there.
So this was right around COVID time.
And it was cold.
I remember the whole thing.
So it was in 2019, 2020?
Yeah, 2020.
And so- I thought you were in
this place that you're in now longer than

(06:23):
from 2020.
No, no.
I'm getting time compression problems here.
Oh, I have it too.
Don't worry.
When you get old, you can't remember why
what?
It's okay.
Time compression is correct.
So that means that, you know, people are
getting pissed off at us.
And there are people who are sad.
There are people sad.

(06:44):
Sad about what?
Well, because we also have started to deconstruct
podcasts.
Oh, that's so the poor- Hey, the
podcasters should be considered big game.
That podcasting is the thing.
I've gotten more notes.
All the kids are doing it, yes.
Everybody's doing it.

(07:05):
I've had notes telling us, why don't you
guys go after the podcasters?
You're always deconstructing shows and media that nobody
listens to.
Exactly.
So what happens is when we deconstruct, you
know, like Tucker Carlson or Scott Horton or
any podcast- Dave Smith, your favorite.

(07:25):
We haven't actually deconstructed Dave Smith, but we
will.
We'll get to it eventually.
But the point is- Banyan.
People become- Oh yeah, I'm doing that
today.
People become- They feel that- Why
are you shitting on other podcasters, man?
Aren't you guys all on the same team?
It's not a club.
Well, yes, because they feel, and I understand

(07:47):
- It's not a fraternity.
It's they feel an affinity and they say,
well, you guys all agreed on this and
all agreed on that.
I say, well, we don't agree on this.
But then- Actually, you and I don't
agree on a lot of stuff.
You know, I heard someone say this morning,
when there's two people who agree all the
time, one of them is unnecessary.

(08:08):
Welcome to PBS NewsHour.
Yeah, I love that.
I'm like, wow, that's something.
That's a good way of putting it.
Of course we don't agree on everything, nor
should we.
For that very reason, if two people agree
all the time, one of them is unnecessary.
So it's not that we hate these guys
or whatever.

(08:29):
We think we're better than them.
No, we're deconstructing and we have- We
do think we're better than many of them.
Well, of course we are.
But we have a different opinion about certain
things.
And, you know, we've gone through the, well,
you know, you're just shills like everybody else.
So anyway, so we're going to continue that

(08:52):
because that is- You're right.
Podcasting's a thing.
So we- It's the thing.
It's the thing, yes.
They all say it's the thing.
It's the thing.
So it's important for us to do that.
Mainstream media is now saying it.
Can I do one right now?
Before you start?
You're going to do a podcast right away?
Podcast deconstruction, yeah.

(09:12):
Can you handle it?
Can you handle this one?
This is a- Yeah, if you let
me get back to my girl.
No, of course.
Of course, of course.
This is Rachel Blevins.
Okay.
Already this is good.
With the name Rachel Blevins.
It gets better.
It sounds like some creation of Woody Allen.

(09:33):
Wow, that's a good one.
So Rachel Blevins has on her podcast Sarah
Bills.
B-I-L-L-S.
Sarah Bills.
And she is the co-founder of DD
Geopolitics.
And DD Geopolitics, they really- They were
born out of necessity, you see.
Because no one was looking at geopolitics properly.

(09:55):
So these two girls, young women, attractive young
women, and they're doing the podcast.
And they also have a video component.
Which is good because I think that, you
know, people want to look at them.
I can see the benefit there, unlike us.
And so Sarah Bills will introduce the topic

(10:19):
here.
And it is about, obviously, about Iran.
And about the nuclear bombs.
Which I think you and I agree is
horse crap.
But then she goes, she says something.
I'm like, wow.
Not only are you new in the podcasting,
but you're also trying to replace somebody who's

(10:41):
been around for quite a while.
And this was earth moving.
I actually want to go back one week
ago when you had Israel launch this Operation
Rising Lion, as they decided to name it.
Which included the bombing of Iranian nuclear facilities
and assassinations targeting Iranian military commanders and nuclear

(11:01):
scientists.
Because you actually have a really interesting report
out.
And I'll make sure that it's linked below.
In which you dive into how good old
Palantir and their mosaic AI platform have been
used by the UN's International Atomic Energy Agency
over the last decade to map out data

(11:22):
points in Iran.
And how it may have been used to
signal this warning that Iran was closer than
ever to creating a nuclear weapon.
Can you start by kind of taking us
through your findings and really what your reaction
was to this information, especially given everything.
Oh, just stop.
Let her talk.

(11:43):
This is the classic podcaster's dilemma.
Just get to the question.
You don't need to.
What your reaction was to this information, especially
given everything that we're watching right now.
Well, everybody put your tinfoil hats on.
I am, that's what they're painting me as,
right?
The crazy person.
I'm becoming the new Whitney Webb.

(12:05):
She's the new Whitney Webb, John.
Everybody's calling her that.
Everybody's calling her the new Whitney Webb.
Get your tinfoil hats on because she is
here.
Was to this information, especially given everything that
we're watching right now.
Well, everybody put your tinfoil hats on.
I am, that's what they're painting me as,
right?
The crazy person.
I'm becoming the new Whitney Webb.

(12:27):
Who got painted as the conspiracy theorist.
I'm kind of obsessed with Palantir.
I find it really fascinating.
And while I was doing the news on
Iran and the bombings and paying close attention
to who they were assassinating, they assassinated an
AI scientist, one of the top AI scientists
in Iran.
And he worked at the University of Tehran.
And I couldn't find any military or nuclear

(12:49):
attachments to him.
So I was like, why the AI guy?
Then a friend of mine, she sent me
a tip that said, they've been using this
software since 2018 called Mosaic.
And that is owned and operated by Palantir.
So this had all the elements I needed.
It had the nuclear strike.
It had Palantir.
It had Whitney Webb.
They killed an AI guy.

(13:09):
And I was like, wow.
So then I started really digging into it.
And I realized that it's Palantir, it's the
Mosaic software, which is a cover for Palantir,
which is actually exactly like you said, mapping
out these data points, stating that there's leaks
or issues at certain sites that have never
been known to have nuclear issues or nuclear

(13:30):
weapons or nuclear material at those sites.
It's very interesting.
And now you see kind of the IAEA
saying, well, we didn't say that they had
nuclear weapons.
We're just saying that they're in the process
of developing them.
It was Mosaic that actually came out and
said the uranium is enriched beyond capacity.
And they have enough enriched uranium to build

(13:53):
nine bombs.
The nine bomb theory is the new WMDs.
So WMDs was Iraq, nine bomb theory is
Iran.
They had enough, quote unquote, enriched uranium to
assemble nine dirty bombs, which there's nothing that
proves that.
Now we're realizing that this is all because
Iran was going to develop a nuclear weapon.

(14:14):
And then sort of, I'm wondering why we're
using predictive software to start wars.
It's over.
Well, for one thing, it's not, they're not
developing nine dirty, they can do dirty bombs
tomorrow.
Dirty bombs, just a bunch of crap put
in a, you know, in a regular bomb.
In a bucket, in a shot off into
space.
To explode a bunch of, so that's, so

(14:35):
why is she saying to develop nine dirty
bombs?
This is wrong.
I don't know.
So already we have analysis that has got
at its base misinformation.
Well, she says that we're using predictive software
to start wars.
And by the way, most people are, who
were okay with President Trump are not okay

(14:57):
with him right now.
They do not like him.
This is not what I voted for.
I did not vote for war.
Well, I'm just telling you what people disagree
with that.
I disagree with it too.
But no, no, I disagree with the comment
that you made, which is most people.
Okay.
Most people in Fredericksburg, Texas.

(15:18):
Which for me is- Oh, well now
that's different.
Yes.
Oh, no, people don't like this.
Oh, this is interesting.
Yeah.
You know, I find the most interesting part
of the show in the last year or
so is your analysis of the locals.
Because it's fascinating because it is a cross

(15:38):
section of a certain type of American that
does permeate the entire country.
Oh, for sure.
And it's always interesting to me because I'm
in Berkeley.
So, you know, I got a pretty standard
fare around here.
You don't get out of the house.
You don't talk to any- I don't
get out of the house.
I have to buy food and occasionally water.
I have to go out and get water.

(15:58):
Doesn't Jay just slip under the door?
I dehydrate.
Yeah.
So, you know, everyone's like, what do you
think?
Well, you should listen to the show because
we're going to figure out what we think
on the show.
But I would say, well, let's get to
your analysis clips and then we can dive.

(16:19):
Let's take a deep dive into this topic,
John.
There's a couple of things here.
Now, one of the things, this woman, I
have to say, this is from last night.
So it's always, it's wrong.
And there's some corrections I think I want
to make up front.
The attack on Iran on the sites consisted
of 30 Tomahawk missiles sent off from a

(16:44):
submarine.
The missiles took one hour and 45 minutes
to hit a couple of the sites.
And they were launched in advance of the
B-2 bombers.
But the B-2 bomber strike was, were
to take place before them.
This is of unbelievable complexity to this.
The bomber would bomb the, use the bunker

(17:06):
bombers, the bunker bombs.
The mop.
The mop.
The mops.
And they were going to use 14.
So there were seven, there were seven B
-2 bombers with an array of other fighters.
And they dropped 14 bombs.
And those bombs are supposed to hit before
the Tomahawk missiles, which were launched an hour

(17:28):
and 45 minutes before that.
So this is information that she doesn't have.
And she's just guessing.
And she's so good at this.
This woman is Jennifer Griffin.
She's a version of Herridge, the pixie girl.
She's a gray haired version.
Oh yeah.
No, she's, she's on Fox the whole time.

(17:49):
Isn't she?
She's on a Fox.
She's the Fox version of the CIA plan.
She's read in.
Yes, she's read in.
She's read in.
Yeah.
But she's received, she hangs out at the
Pentagon.
So I think she's read in mostly by
the military guys.
And she wasn't read in on this.
And nobody seems to have been read in
on this.
This was a, and she talks about that.
And I think this is the most phenomenal

(18:10):
part about it.
They did not mention, they're called the magic
eight or the eight balls or some bull
crap.
The eight Congress people that are supposed to
be informed with something like this.
Oh, it's the, it's the, the furious five.
No, the, what are they called?
The eight something.
Yes.
And they didn't, weren't told Jack.

(18:33):
And why weren't they told Jack?
Cause you can't trust them.
You can't trust them.
They're working for both sides.
Gang of eight, gang of eight.
The gang of eight.
They won't, they'll talk.
They'll blow it.
I don't, I think that Tulsi Gabbard was
kept out of some of these meetings because
yes, I don't think that they, it's that
they don't trust her.
They don't trust the CIA and these intelligence

(18:55):
agencies from making a phone call.
Hey, there's a bomb that's coming in.
Wouldn't you, wouldn't you think also an analyst,
an analyst came to me through someone else
and said, this is also a big F
you to the Brits and the CIA who
have been destabilizing and mucking around in the

(19:15):
region for decades, which is absolutely.
Yeah.
I thought that, Oh, that was spot on
when I heard that.
I'm like, yeah, exactly.
So no, no one was read in.
I got military people saying, oh, B2 is
going to Guam.
That means it's Iran.
And then, but that was the, that was
the diversion.
Yeah.

(19:35):
There were people, there were people even in
the military who have ties who were looking
at the diversion.
When the actual strike went the other way,
they went around the globe in the other
direction.
That's what Jennifer talks about here.
And she's, she deconstructs this beautifully considering this
was right after it happened.
So she's there information, you know, she's assuming

(19:57):
they're going to drop a couple of these
mops and when they dropped 14, she doesn't
have that information yet, but let's listen to
this.
This is Iran bombing.
And this is Jennifer Griffin.
It's notable how much deception was involved in
this operation.
All eyes were looking West towards Guam and
the B2s that took off late last night
towards Guam.

(20:18):
It's possible that, but if the distance there
would suggest that the B2s may have also
flown East from Whiteman Air Force Base in
Missouri.
Remember the air refuelers, many of them were
placed in Europe and in the, across the
Middle East.
And that is what is known as an
air refueling bridge.
And all of those B2s would require much
air refueling in order to make it, they

(20:41):
usually fly round trip from Whiteman.
And so what we can say, and the
president said this in his truth social post
is that a full payload of bombs, those
massive ordinance penetrators, the 30,000 pound bunker
buster bombs were dropped at Fordow.
And as we have reported, there are two
entrances to Fordow.
So at least two bombs at each two

(21:03):
entrance, which suggests at least two B2s were
involved over Fordow.
My suspicion is that there were more.
And then you have the two other sites,
Natanz, which is also has an underground enrichment
facility.
The Israelis had not been able to reach
or take out that facility despite the last
10 days of bombing.
And so now U.S. war planes, like

(21:24):
likely another B2 bomber had dropped that mop,
the 30,000 pound bunker buster on Natanz.
And then you also have Isfahan, a third
site south of Tehran.
And that is also a very significant enrichment
facility.
So those B2 bombers, it's possible that as
everybody was looking West for the B2s flying

(21:46):
towards Guam, that in fact there was another
package of squadron of B2s that were flying
East from Whiteman.
It's about a 15 hour trip from Whiteman
in Missouri to the Middle East, to Iran.
And those bombers often fly round trip and
takes them about 30 hours to get home.
So there was another new term which cropped
up, which has been going for the past

(22:07):
few days, is the package, the package.
Yeah, package.
This package included, this package.
That is, I had not, I don't think
I've heard that before, using the term the
package.
This is the package we put together.
Don't, I can't say that I've heard it
either.
There's news to be.
So just as right after this happened, which

(22:28):
was our time around three o'clock, which
I will mention, donations stopped dead at three
o'clock yesterday.
We didn't get, they dribble in usually all
night.
But at three o'clock PayPal had no
donations after 3.15. Now either that PayPal
was shuttered or they, now the Iranians, you

(22:51):
know, they cut them off because they're one
of the world's greatest hacking operations.
But anyway, that's going with part two of
her.
The other thing I can point out, Brett,
is that this is an operation in the
last 18 years since I've been at the
Pentagon, I've never seen such operational security.
There was nobody speaking about this.

(23:13):
Any of the preparations, there was a complete
lockdown, almost a blackout of information for the
last few days.
I'm sitting here in the Pentagon right now.
I can tell you the hallways are empty
and all of the information is coming right
now out of the White House.
That is a significant achievement because there was,
there were no leaks about the timing.

(23:34):
Now sometimes, I think those who, a lot
of the flight trackers, the open source intelligence
flight trackers, that flight radar did indicate some
of the, when the B-2s took off
from Whiteman.
But again, nobody really expected that it would
take place this evening.
If you looked at the moon schedule, you
might've had a clue because it was a

(23:54):
waning crescent and almost a new moon on
the 25th.
So it would have been very, very dark
over Iran tonight.
And you need that in order to bomb,
that's the ideal condition for something like a
B-2 that is, yes, it's stealth, but
it still has to be escorted in in
case any, Iran were to put up any

(24:16):
planes or there were any opportunities to fire
on those B-2s, which are such valuable
and very, very special planes.
Only the U.S. military has this kind
of weaponry and this capability.
No other country in the world could have
carried off what occurred tonight.
Oh, well, at least she gets the talking
point in at the end.

(24:37):
Good job.
No one could do this.
We're the best.
Number one, phone finger number one.
That was Trump talking.
Yeah.
For people's information out there, we have 17
B-2s in service.
They cost about $4 billion to make.
When they stopped making them years ago, they
moved to the B-21.
And there were 19 built.

(24:57):
One of them crashed, caused a bunch of
money.
And I guess another one was a Lemon.
It was a Monday morning model, Monday morning
B-2, it was no good.
So there were plenty of planes to go
around since they sent seven of them.

(25:17):
So here we go with analysis, the end
of her.
By the way, I was knowing that this
happened, her analysis came right after it started.
I was extremely impressed.
I'm now always going to be impressed.
And when she shows up, I'm gonna listen.
That's how, it was just pretty astonishing to

(25:38):
me that she did all this.
Here we go.
Yeah, Jen, you're exactly right on the operational
security here and the fact that there were
obviously some red herrings and in a world
where decisions are made and the world digests
the decision even before it's made because of
social media and everyone's watching everywhere.

(25:59):
This was a pretty amazing operation.
When you start thinking that the president said
within two weeks, we are two days from
within two weeks.
And this happens with a post on Truth
Social and no other word really getting out
ahead of that is pretty stunning.

(26:19):
The other extraordinary thing, Brett, is that I've
spoken to past planners who've been involved in
planning for this kind of mission for the
past 20 years.
And they all told me to a person
that it would normally take the US military
about 30 days to get all of their
assets, their military assets into position.
This took about two weeks.

(26:40):
If you count back to the meeting at
Camp David on June 8th, where I think
this was first discussed, it's been about two
weeks since then.
And by moving the USS Nimitz from the
Pacific to the Middle East and putting all
those destroyers in the Eastern Med and along

(27:00):
with F-22 fighter squadrons, which left Langley
Air Force Base earlier this week, all of
those refuelers, those refuelers are really the heroes
also of this mission because it is, again,
the US and Israel are really among the
only countries in the world that can refuel
mid-flight.
And that is what allowed those B-2

(27:21):
bombers to fly all the way from the
continental US from Whiteman Air Force Base in
Missouri all the way to the Middle East
without ever having to land.
Yeah, so the other part of the deception
was the two weeks thing.
Here's a mini cut.
I'll let you know in about two weeks,
within two weeks.
I could answer that question better in two
weeks.
I'll do this at some point over the

(27:42):
next two weeks.
I'll announce it over the next two weeks.
I'll let you know in about two weeks.
It'll be out in about less than two
weeks.
And so with that in mind, I went
back to the clip we played on the
last show and it actually sounds like President
Trump had, of course, made up his mind.
He knew what the plan was.
It was good to go when he came

(28:03):
out with this two-week stuff, which is
like, wow, everyone bought that.
Oh, I'm like, oh, two weeks.
Okay, we'll see what happens in two weeks.
Not even thinking that that was a lie.
Bullshit.
A lie.
But when you listen to him in hindsight,
he really does sound sincerely sad that he
has to do it.
Listen to this clip.
Striking Iranian nuclear facilities.

(28:25):
Where's your mindset on that?
You can't say that, right?
You don't seriously think I'm going to answer
that question.
Will you strike the Iranian nuclear component and
what time exactly, sir?
Sir, would you strike it?
Would you please inform us so we can
be there and watch?
I mean, you don't know that I'm going
to even do it.
You don't know.
I may do it.
I may not do it.

(28:45):
I mean, nobody knows what I'm going to
do.
I can tell you this, that Iran's got
a lot of trouble and they want to
negotiate.
And I said, why didn't you negotiate with
me before all this death and destruction?
Why didn't you negotiate?
I said to the people, why didn't you
negotiate with me two weeks ago?
You could have done fine.

(29:05):
You would have had a country.
It's very sad to watch this.
I mean, I've never, I've never seen anything
like it.
It's so, you know, everyone thought it was
going to be the reverse.
I didn't, I didn't think so.
And I was telling him, you got to,
you got to do something.
You got to negotiate.
And at the end, last minute, they said,
no, we're not going to do that.
And they got hit.
Remember 60 days?

(29:25):
And then came the 60th.
So he sounds sincerely like sad that he
had this all planned and had to do
it.
I think he is.
I think he's sincere when he says he's
a peace guy.
Now, knowing, knowing that this really, since 1992,
we've been hearing about the days, weeks, they're

(29:46):
almost there.
It's coming.
There was a great meme floating around, which
went something like this.
In 1220, the Persian Empire collapsed under the
such and such.
And they were just two weeks away from
a nuclear bomb.
So now what is not mentioned, and of
course, there's no clips of it, but Pakistan

(30:08):
was sending their Chinese J-35 fighters over
to Iran.
I think that the Chinese moves, you know,
they had some big cargo planes flying in.
I think they were gearing up and that's
what made the decision go quicker.
Because I still believe with certainty that this
is about sending a message to China and

(30:29):
not about some fictitious or whatever, Fatah Morgana
of nuclear bombs.
Because, I mean, this has been going on
forever, this talk.
And at the same time, if there's no
more nuclear capability, well, then we're done, right?
Then Iran doesn't have to, Israel doesn't have

(30:50):
to do anything.
We don't have to worry about it.
Bibi doesn't have to hold up pictures of
bombs at the UN because it's gone, it's
done.
So that does kind of erase that whole
thing.
It's gone now.
You can't use that anymore.
Can I interrupt for one second and play
a clip?
Yeah.
This was, I was, when this war started,

(31:12):
coincidentally, I was watching live Al Jazeera.
I felt like getting Al Jazeera clips.
Okay.
And there's something that took place with Trump's
post that I don't think anybody recognized as
humor.
His initial post, I thought was done as

(31:33):
a form of humor that it just was
lost on all media.
And so I have the Al Jazeera clip.
This is the Trump truth social post.
And this is the Al Jazeera guy reading
the thing.
He missed the joke.
Everybody seems to have missed the joke, except,
I don't know, me.

(31:54):
And not that I'm that great, but this
was so obvious to me.
Can you play this clip?
So here's what the U.S. President has
said in the last few minutes.
U.S. President Donald Trump posted on his
social media account saying, we have completed our
very successful attack on the three nuclear sites
in Iran, including Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan.
All planes are now outside of Iran airspace.

(32:15):
A full payload of bombs was dropped on
the primary site, Fordow.
All planes are safely on their way home.
Congratulations to our great American warriors.
There is not another military in the world
that could have done this.
Now is the time for peace.
That's like a memo.

(32:37):
You got it too.
A memo, yeah.
It's got the memo meme.
And nobody has commented on this little phrase
that he dropped in there to make it
seem like a bureaucratic piece.
You know.
Wow.

(32:58):
That's interesting.
It's like a word to the wise.
I mean, all these kinds of things you
get, if you ever worked in a company
or an agency or anything, you have these
memo writers that put shit like that in
their memos, and it's very insulting.
The men's washroom will be closed for the
next five days.

(33:19):
I hope this message finds you well.
Please do not flush anything down the toilets
that does not belong there.
Totally.
So, since you played the fox lady, this
is what Steve Bannon's big beef was.
Sorry, I'm speaking Dutch now.

(33:40):
I'm glad you got this because I didn't
get to hear any of this stuff.
And did you get it this morning?
Unfortunately, because of our time zones, I didn't
get any good stuff from it.
I watched a lot of stuff this morning,
but I didn't get any clips.
I know.
I have the clips from this morning, thanks
to the Jones Brothers Syndicate.
So, we will definitely play some of that.

(34:01):
But first, this is Bannon, and he blames
this all on Fox News.
We can, listen, you can, and people on
Fox, oh, it's good versus evil.
It's good.
Yo, dude, John Adams said, if you want
to go, you know, don't go abroad from
monster society.
There are monsters all over the world.
We can do the good and evil everywhere.
Everywhere.
Everywhere.

(34:21):
Is that what we're going to do?
It's good versus evil.
Let's go.
I would think if you're going to do
good versus evil and kind of weigh them
up.
By the way, the repetitiveness in this clip
is not me editing.
That's him.
Maybe we should be marching on Beijing.
Let's roll.
Let's do it.
I don't hear any voices there for that.
It's interesting.
Is Lao Bajing not worthy of that?

(34:41):
It's because they're Chinese and not worthy of
that.
Is that what it is?
Is he upset that it's not known that
this was about China or this?
Why?
I don't think so.
Is that what it is?
Is that what it is?
No, I think a major FARA investigation should
take place at Fox News.
I believe that thoroughly.

(35:01):
I think we need to see if they
represent a foreign government as an agent.
So I think he's saying that Israel is.
He thinks Fox should be registered as a
foreign agent for Israel?
Yes.
I think you ought to check the cell
phone, see the data, check the emails, what
was going back and forth.
What they were pushing on the American people.
What are they pushing on the American people?

(35:23):
Where did this information come from?
I think it has to happen.
You can't have somebody cheerleading you on to
war.
You have to sit there.
We haven't been cheerleading against doing it.
What we're saying, first off, number one, we
believe it should be done, right?
We agree that the mullahs should not get
nuclear weapons.
We believe there's many paths to do that.
President Trump was pursuing other paths as he

(35:45):
was from the first term.
None of those paths were going on the
path to kinetic warfare.
None of them, okay?
None of them.
But we got jammed up because last Thursday
night, had to do it, had to do
it, had to do it, had to do
it, had to do it, had to do
it.
Then we did with the sense of urgency,
the phony sense of urgency had upsell.
Now we need regime change, regime change, regime

(36:05):
change.
Gotta do it, gotta do it.
You're not MAGA.
You're not Trump.
You're not Team Trump.
You're not Team Trump.
Well, look, bro, we've been in these trenches
with Trump a long time.
We know who teammates are and who are
the stays.
So he's, he's channeling George Bush somehow.
That's what is, that's an interesting point to

(36:25):
catch because he sounds a little like him.
I gotta, gotta do it, gotta do it.
I gotta do it, gotta do it, gotta
do it.
You sound like George H.W. Yeah, no,
George, no, George, yeah.
No, George H.W. is the one that
said gotta do it, gotta do it, gotta
do it.
And again, I mean, to me, it's, it's
like, wow, this is so obvious what this
was about.

(36:46):
You know, it's still like, go away, China.
You have no business here.
And look what we, and Trump had, you
know, taco, taco, I was calling Trump taco.
Trump always chickens out.
And so he had to show it.
He had to show that, oh, no, I'm
not going to chicken out.
I'm going to blow up these, these sand
bunkers.
Hmm.

(37:07):
So.
Well, let's stop for a second, because Bannon,
let's face it, Bannon is on the outs.
Oh, yeah.
He's been on the outs since Trump started,
since 2020, actually, even before that.
Once he got thrown out of the White
House by one of the bad, one of

(37:28):
the bad actors, it was Kelly or one
of these guys, they got rid of him
as soon as they could.
And he, you know, kind of is like
a loose cannon.
He's he's I think he's anti-Israel.
He's also more than he is anti-war.
And he has.

(37:49):
He just has an abrasive personality of sorts.
I mean, I think he's an entertaining podcaster,
but it's everything's, oh, you know, it's all
this, you know, this kind of kind of
weird excitement that he's always got, like there's
some conspiracy going on constantly.
And he's, you know, he's he's the only

(38:11):
one that can identify it.
He's brilliant.
I don't like the guy.
What, what this, what this taking our, I
was going to say taking our theory into
account.
You don't like the guy's fine.
Yeah.
He's too annoying for me to watch long
periods of.
He's like, okay, I got it.

(38:31):
But he's team Trump, I guess.
He says, we've been team Trump for a
long time, bro.
Well, he thinks he is team Trump.
Somebody sent me a note when I was
bitching about one of his clips and they
said, with Bannon saying, we, we got this
guy.
We got Hexeth and we got this guy
and we got that guy in.
And the note came and says what Bannon

(38:52):
is saying is MAGA, not we means MAGA.
And I'm thinking what as a counter to
that is that what Bannon is MAGA.
He represents MAGA.
He is the, the poster boy for MAGA.
I don't think so.
Well, he thinks so.
Or, or that's what he needs to, to
justify.

(39:13):
I credit the guy for having a entertaining
show, a good podcast.
So taking into account that this has really
been about China for a long time, it
kind of puts the, the pallets of billions
of dollars of cash into perspective.
I can totally see the Obama administration going
to Iran and saying, you know, you know,

(39:35):
we'll give you money.
The Chinese got money.
We got more money.
We'll give it to you cash.
We'll put it on pallets.
We'll bring it in.
Just don't do business with China.
You know what I mean?
There is a clip going around.
I didn't get, it's on Twitter floating around.
It's from some screwball show is some woman
who's supposedly ex CIA.

(39:55):
And that pallet of cash was some sort
of blackmail.
They had nothing to do with China.
Maybe.
I don't think that we're giving people money
to not do business with China.
It doesn't make sense.
And we're not going to give it to
them.
That's for sure.
There's something else.
You're not going to give them credit for
being smart.
Definitely not.

(40:15):
Okay.
So this morning, the morning shows, of course,
I, the Steve, the Steve Jones and Neil
Jones, Jones brothers syndicate always on top.
So you need to have this guy, if
we're talking about Iran, because he was up
all night in front of his monitor.
Whoa, it's Lindsey Graham, everybody.

(40:35):
You praised the president's decision overnight.
And I know you just got off of
the phone with prime minister Netanyahu.
What did he say to you about this
moment?
Well, first about the president's decision.
I thought it was bold, quite frankly, brilliant,
militarily necessary and most importantly, effective.
So well done, Mr. President, to your your
team in our militaries and fantastic operation.

(40:59):
That is substantially degraded.
I think Iran's nuclear program.
So I talked to Bibi just just a
few minutes ago.
So I was talking to Bibi just a
few moments ago.
And I said, hey, Bibi.
Hey, I'm Lindsey Graham.
I mean, Bibi.
Really?
Really, Graham?
I think Iran's nuclear program.
So I talked to Bibi just just a
few minutes ago.
And I said, what would you like me
to say, Bibi?

(41:20):
Listen to this.
What would you like me to say, Bibi?
If you want to know someone who's under
the influence of Israel, Israel, Israel, Israel, you
can't even pronounce it.
It's this guy.
He is definitely.
What would you like me to say?
This guy's comic, he's comedic.
Yes.
Just a few minutes ago.
And I said, what would you like me
to say?

(41:41):
Because I have no mind of my own,
Bibi.
I'm from South Carolina.
I'm a military industrial complex state.
He said, tell the American people, Israel is
profoundly grateful.
Israel.
For all we do for Israel.
And very grateful to President Trump for what
he ordered last night.

(42:03):
Two messages.
He wanted me to urge the Iranian people
to end this madness.
Take this regime down and have a better
life for yourselves and be part of the
region in a new and different way.
And second, he wanted me to tell the
American people, Israel is not going to live
this way anymore.

(42:24):
Israel.
They're not going to live under threat from
Iran anymore.
Last night they were attacked.
The early morning hours of today after the
attack by President Trump, Israel fired ballistic missiles
into Israel, wounding Israeli citizens.
24 have been killed.
This regime is not going to be tolerated

(42:45):
by Israel, is what he told me.
And then in this next clip, he literally
parrots Bibi, his friend, his good friend Bibi
Netanyahu with the same words.
Okay, so let me follow up with you
on that point, Senator.
Because Prime Minister Netanyahu has signaled- This
is a Christmas show.
Say what?

(43:06):
Meet the press with Kristen Welker.
Yes.
Yes, this is from Meet the Press.
Exactly.
Israelis want to carry out regime change.
Would you support that if Israel were to
carry out regime change?
If I were Israel, I would have done
it a long time ago.
They've been held back in many ways.
What would be the right response if America
had a ballistic missile fired into our country

(43:26):
and killed our citizens?
We would wipe the offender off the map.
So here's what I hope.
After the hospital attack, and they were so
lucky not to lose a lot of people.
By the way, it was not a hospital
attack.
It was a building next to the hospital
that was an intelligence building.
But okay, Lindsey.
Israel's made a decision- Wait, stop there.

(43:47):
And by the way, there is a little
kind of duplicitousness here because we, you know,
the Israelis have bombed a bunch of hospitals
in Gaza.
Yeah.
And nobody wants to bring that point up
because the hospitals were used as cover for,
you know, the use of civilian cover for
their operations.
What?
And how is that different than an intelligence

(44:07):
operation next to a hospital?
It's not.
But it's Lindsey Graham.
Israel's made a decision.
This regime is going to change in one
of two ways.
They're going to change their behavior, which I
doubt the regime itself or the people are
going to replace the regime.
They have less capability today than they did

(44:27):
yesterday, but they're still religious Nazis.
They want to purify Islam.
That is literally Netanyahu talk.
Religious Nazis.
They're Nazis.
They want to- I have a-
That's a very strange comparison to make.
Yeah.
I mean, the Nazis was very specific.

(44:48):
Yeah.
It's the National Socialist Party of Germany in
the 19th, late 20s, actually mid 30s.
Now he says they're religious Nazis.
Graham is- The whole thing is ridiculous.
He's- I also want to reintroduce the
idea that all this is theater and it's
the Ayatollah who ditched himself into a bunker.

(45:09):
He's the only one who put himself in
a safe place where they're killing all the
generals and AI guys and nuclear scientists.
And the possibility still exists in my mind
- That this is- That this is
all a setup to get rid of all
these threatening military guys that were threatening the

(45:29):
regime.
As we say in the old country, they're
all playing under the same hat.
They're all playing under the same hat.
And from Soleimani, when Trump killed him on,
it's all been just getting rid of these
guys one after the other.
So it's possible that the Ayatollah is actually

(45:51):
a good guy and would like to get
China out of there too.
They don't want China- Sorry?
Well, the Ayatollah was against nuclear weapons.
He was against- He's been- He's
publicly been against it the whole time until
- I mean, this whole thing could be
a huge setup- Very possible.
Designed to get rid of the nukes, get

(46:12):
rid of the Chinese, get rid of the
military guys that want to run the country
anyway, get rid of all of them and
really rearrange Iran for the benefit of the
guys, the conspirers who have been working with
Israel and the United States all along as
people in the Mideast.
We brought it up on our show numerous
times.
All the time they say this.
No, no.

(46:32):
All the time they're on working together.
All the time.
They say it all the time.
At least we should keep that in play
because I think it's still in play.
Let's go to our Secretary of State, Marco
Rubio.
This is- I'm liking Rubio more and
more, by the way.
This is the only guy that matters.
He doesn't smile anymore.
He's not funny.
No humor.

(46:54):
Humorless Marco.
He is probably the only voice that matters
right now because he runs the State Department.
He can talk.
And he's the head of intelligence.
Oh, no, he's the head of the-
He runs a lot.
He runs a lot.
He runs a lot of stuff.
Well, here he is on Face the Nation

(47:15):
with Margaret.
Mr. Secretary, I know it has been an
intense few hours.
But so far, it does not appear that
Iran has yet retaliated against the United States.
What intelligence do you have at this point
about their capabilities to respond, the intent of
their proxies?

(47:35):
Is there any kind of command and control
structure left to activate them?
Yeah, well, we'll see what Iran decides to
do.
I think they should choose the route of
peace.
We have been, we've done everything.
We have bent over backwards, okay, to create
a deal with these people.
Steve Woodcock has traveled the world extensively, met
with them.
Well, not even met with them, met through
the Omanis with them and discussed back and

(47:57):
forth.
We even put an offer to them that
they wanted elements of it in writing.
And we offered, it's a very generous offer,
by the way.
We've done it.
And we're prepared- Best price.
Right now.
If they call right now and say, we
want to meet, let's talk about this.
We're prepared to do that.
The president's made that clear from the very
beginning.
His preference is to deal with this issue
diplomatically.
But he also told them we had 60

(48:17):
days to make progress or something else was
going to happen.
And I think they thought they were dealing
with a different kind of leader, like the
kinds of leaders they've been playing games with
for the last 30 or 40 years.
And they found out that's not the case.
So this mission was a very precise mission.
It had three objectives, three nuclear sites.
It was not attack on Iran.
It was not an attack on the Iranian
people.
This wasn't a regime change move.

(48:38):
This was designed to degrade and or destroy
three nuclear sites related to their nuclear weaponization
ambitions.
And that was delivered on yesterday.
What happens next will now depend on what
Iran chooses to do next.
If they choose the path of diplomacy, we're
ready.
We can do a deal that's good for
them, the Iranian people and good for the
world.
If they choose another route, then there'll be

(48:58):
consequences for that.
So right away, and I'm quite sure that
there's still elements within the military industrial complex
who are like, well, no, we don't want
diplomacy.
We can't have that.
So they've launched this.
And this comes to me through the typical
channels.
And these people don't even know they're doing
it themselves.
Like, well, their trucks and stuff was getting

(49:21):
out.
It might not be over.
There may be some stuff still left.
We didn't get it all.
It didn't work.
What is the US assessment of how much
nuclear material at those sites was moved prior
to the attack?
There has been talk for days about bombing
of Fordow.
Well, look, no one will know for sure
for days, but I doubt they moved it
because you really can't move anything right now.

(49:42):
And they can't move anything right now inside
of Iran.
I mean, the minute a truck starts driving
somewhere, the Israelis have seen it and they've
targeted it and taken it out.
So our assessment is we have to assume
that that's a lot of 60 percent enriched
uranium buried deep under the ground there in
Isfahan.
And that really is the key.
What they should do with that is they
should bring it out of the ground and
turn it over.
Multiple countries around the world will take it

(50:03):
and down blend it.
That's what they should do with that.
And what they should do is say, we're
not going to have any enrichment capability in
our country.
Instead, what we're going to have is a
civil nuclear program like dozens of countries around
the world have, where we build reactors that
create electricity and we import enriched material.
And we've made very general.
I'm not going to get all the details
of the offers, but there are other avenues
here that would be acceptable to them.

(50:25):
Where do we import enriched materials from?
Who does that?
Is that is that us?
I mean, who who's the who's the boss
of the enriched material that is not as
we build reactors that create electricity and we
import enriched material.
And we've made very general.
I'm not going to get all the details
of the offers, but there are other avenues
here that would be acceptable to them if
that's what they wanted, if what they want

(50:46):
is a civil, peaceful nuclear program.
The route has always been there.
The problem is that everything they're demanding has
nothing to do with a peaceful program.
They are all the things you would want
if you want to retain the option of
one day weaponizing the program, which has been
their clear intent.
To me, that's indisputable.
I follow this issue for 15 years, including
the intelligence on it for 15 years.

(51:07):
OK, I have followed it.
And the intelligences are assessments.
And sometimes they've been wrong.
I've seen them revised multiple times.
These guys want a nuclear weapon one day.
OK, to that point, it isn't going to
happen.
Not while Donald Trump is president.
One day, he said, oops, Marco, don't give
it away.
Let's address the regime change, because that's another
thing that just got launched into the ether.

(51:28):
As far as I know, not by the
administration, not by the president, but I think
by people who are very upset and compare
this to the weapons of mass destruction, the
aluminum tubes we're being lied to.
We're all going to die.
There's going to be a war.
Trump promised us no war, no never ending
wars.

(51:48):
And with that comes regime change.
You've said this is not about regime change,
but you were describing a regime that you
have said for decades, I mean, for upwards
of 40 years, has chanted death to America,
has all the things you just described.
Isn't a diplomatic deal with them a lifeline?
Aren't you offering to negotiate with the same
people you're saying did all these things?
So therefore, are you actually looking for regime

(52:12):
change?
That misses the point.
I don't like that they chant those things.
But one thing is that they chant those
things.
Another thing is that they chant those things
and they have terror proxies are all over
the world and they have long range missiles
that can reach the United States one day.
And they have the potential to be one
step away from a nuclear weapon.
Yeah, well, one day it could be tomorrow,

(52:33):
could be a week from now, could be
a month from now.
All it takes is the flip of a
switch.
By the way, they're not going to broadcast
that to the world.
By the time we figure out that they're
doing it, you have all the pieces in
place, OK?
It's like you have a gun here and
the ammunition.
It only takes one second.
We have other targets that we could hit,
but we achieved our objective.
The primary targets we were interested in are
the ones that were struck tonight in devastating

(52:53):
fashion.
The ones that were struck, I guess, yeah,
tonight over there, their time and devastating fashion.
And we've achieved that objective.
There are no planned military operations right now
against Iran unless unless they mess around and
they attack American or American interests.
Then they're going to have a problem.
F.A.F.O. Then they're going to
have a problem.
I'm not going to broadcast what those problems
are, but suffice it to say, know this.

(53:14):
The United States flew halfway around the world,
right into the heart of Iran, over their
most sensitive locations.
These things got rocked.
And then we left and we were out
of their airspace.
We were over the ocean before they figured
out what had happened.
And there are plenty of other targets.
We don't want to do that.
That's not our preference.
We want peace deals with them.
And that's up to them to decide.
They got rocked.
We rocked them.

(53:34):
They got rocked.
So and now we get down to the
nitty gritty, because this is really what the
issue is about.
If you look at the price of oil,
who determines the price of oil, who is
selling the oil, who is selling the oil
mainly to China or any type of energy
stuff, coal, oil, gas, etc.

(53:57):
And the shipping routes, which is what we
use when we sell our stuff and we
control the oil.
You said defend American interests.
Would the United States military take action to
keep, for example, the transit point, the Strait
of Hormuz open if there are attacks on
oil installations?
Would the United States consider that a direct
act by the state, even if it was

(54:18):
carried out by a militia?
Well, I'm not going to take options away
from the president.
That's not something we're talking about right now
in terms of being immediate.
But if they do that, the first people
that should be angry about it are the
Chinese government because they take a lot of
their oil comes through there.
So they should be the first ones that
are saying if they mind the Straits of
Hormuz, the Chinese are going to pay a
huge price and every other country in the
world is going to pay a huge price.

(54:38):
We will, too.
They'll have some impact on us.
It'll have a lot more impact on the
rest of the world, a lot more impact
on the rest of the world.
There would be a suicidal move on their
part, because I think the whole world would
come against them if they did that.
Will the Chinese and Russians stop trading with
Iran?
You have to ask the Chinese and the
Russians.
I mean, they're getting, you know, they're well,
the Russians are getting a bunch of these,

(54:59):
you know, these drones that they're using are
coming from Iran.
Exactly.
They're coming from Iran.
So I saw the foreign minister, instead of
meeting with Steve Woodcoff, is headed to Moscow
to meet with Putin, which was a pre
scheduled meeting, which is fine.
You know, they can go meet.
And, you know, the Russians at the end
of the day, I mean, they buy drones
from them.
But look, this is very simple.
They we want to have an agreement with

(55:20):
them, a diplomatic agreement in which they have
a civil nuclear program, but are not enriching
and don't have weapons grade material or weapons
capabilities laying around.
It's that simple.
I thought it was so hilarious on DH
Unplugged, which airs live every Tuesday, and you
can listen to it on the podcast on
Wednesdays, that Horowitz had after 10 years had
pulled all of his clients out of oil.

(55:42):
And then this happens.
Oil spikes.
Oh, wait.
Crapola, you know.
OK, you're back.
Sorry about that.
Could you hear me?
So the you didn't.
Unfortunately, I wish there was a clip of

(56:05):
Rubio from this morning where he says this
makes this comment about meeting face to face
and not passing notes back and forth and
having all these middlemen like third graders.
And it's just a very funny comment, because
I guess we haven't really had a meeting
with the Russians.
It's always they have to write down on
a note and the Omani's take it to
another suite in the hotel and then they

(56:27):
take a note back.
Crap.
Yes, bullcrap, we can't do that.
No.
Well, so here's the final message from from
our our our secretary of state.
When did the president make this decision?
Because he said he was giving two more
weeks of diplomacy on Friday.
And on Friday, these jets took off.
Well, the president retains the opportunity to pull

(56:49):
out of this at any moment, including 10
minutes before.
But the president ordered options.
The president look, the decision, in my view,
was made when he wrote a letter to
the supreme leader and he said over the
next 60 days, we want to do a
deal with you and solve this problem of
nuclear weaponization.
Yeah, I want to do it peacefully.
After 60 days, we don't see progress or
it isn't solved.
We have other alternatives.
He made that very clear.

(57:09):
I think what some people are struggling with
here is that we today have a president
who does what he says he's going to
do.
And that's what happened here.
And that was the point.
That was the point.
The way she tries to interrupt him.
Yeah, that was good.
He's hard to block.
Yeah, he's good.
I actually like a lot of people thought
it was a bad choice because he's like

(57:31):
a, you know.
For various reasons, I've enjoyed him as a
secretary of state.
You know, he's entertaining.
He could be funny if he wanted to
be.
We know that from the past, but he's
decided to go with this very serious style.
You know who was a bad choice?

(57:51):
Our ambassador to the United Nations.
Who is that?
Because Stefanik was going to be the ambassador,
which I thought would have been a good
choice.
I think it is.
No, no, she got kicked back.
Ambassador UN.
Let me see who became it.

(58:12):
Um, Madam Ambassador.
What's her name?
Oh, Dorothy Shay.
Man, Dorothy, you need to update your picture
on your Wikipedia.
So what's wrong with her?
I've never heard of her.

(58:32):
Well, let's see.
I know they wanted Stefanik in there, but
then they didn't have enough people in the
House of Representatives.
They didn't want to let, you know, Kathy
Hochul appoint some Democrat.
And so they had to keep her in
the House of Representatives.
They pulled her nomination and she was, you
know, she wanted to do the job.
Well, let's see.
What did she do previously?

(58:54):
I think it's just a stand in.
Yeah, well, she's no good.
Listen to this gaffe.
Israel's government has also spread chaos, terror and
suffering throughout the region.
What?
What?
Iran's government has also spread chaos, terror and
suffering throughout the region.
She does a do over like, like it's
going to get edited out.

(59:14):
Oh, no, no, no.
You said Israel.
You meant Iran.
Iran's government has also spread chaos, terror.
Or is it just the truth coming out?
Well, I have a, if you want to
play, I have a clip similar to that.
Um, in terms of somebody, just the stupidest
thing.
I mean, that's like saying, you know, the

(59:36):
the vaccine gas we heard during Covid.
Instead of saying this virus is killing people,
this vaccine is killing people.
The vaccine is killing people.
It's a truth coming out thing, man.
That's what it is.
So they so they just changed the topic
for a second.
We're good.
I'm sure we get back to the Iran
conflagration.
But so they let this guy, the guy

(59:57):
that was in Louisiana, Mahmoud Khalil.
Yes, they and and what a political move
with AOC walking out of the of the
airport with him.
Oh, it's horrible.
And AOC is just digging a hole for
herself.
Yeah, that's not a good look.
So they had this.
They had a quote.
This is from, again, from Al Jazeera.

(01:00:18):
And you have to listen carefully to what
he says.
This is him yakking away.
It's a very short clip.
Uh, how long is this clip?
Who am I?
Who am I looking for here?
It's a it says H.K.A.H.
Ah, yes.
OK.
Al, I'm sorry.
OK, 27 second clip.
Listen carefully to his words.

(01:00:40):
Khalil took part in protests at Columbia University,
one of many across college campuses last year
in support of Palestinian people.
The U.S. government is funding this genocide
and Columbia University is investing in this genocide.
This is why I was protesting.
This is why I will continue to protest
with every one of you.

(01:01:00):
Not only if they threaten me with detention,
even if they would kill me, I would
still speak up for Palestine.
Yeah, I thought that was interesting, too.
Yeah, even if you kill me, I'm going
to speak.
I'm going to keep speaking.
How does that work?
Now, what is going to happen with this
guy?
Because it was because of a judge, another

(01:01:21):
federal judge that they said, oh, you can't
do this.
I love how the Guardian positions it.
Let me see if I still have that
article.
The Guardian just is like continuous.
Oh, yeah, here it is.
Got the Guardian.
Columbia graduate and legal U.S. resident.
I like the way they always do that.

(01:01:41):
Yeah, and they keep saying that, keep saying
that.
But, you know, even a green card, there
are kind of restrictions on that.
You can't do certain things, including just getting
arrested.
I still think the guy's some sort of
plant.
Well, we'll see.
Well, he didn't have the kiff yet before,

(01:02:02):
but now he does.
Yeah, he never used to wear that thing.
And then as soon as he comes out
of jail, they're walking him all over the
place.
Where did it come from?
He's wearing it all over like he had
it in jail.
No, AOC gave it to him.
Yeah, AOC gave it to him.
Yeah.
Hello, Khalil.
Yeah, she was wearing one.

(01:02:23):
I'm like Roy, Roy, Roy Kent.
Oh, let me see.
Talking about people like her.
Let's listen to this clip.
This is from Fox.
This is Iran bombing naysayers.
This is about the people that are going
to be bitching and moaning about it.

(01:02:44):
What people say.
We've already seen AOC come out and say,
you know, this was terrible.
What is happening?
This is an escalation.
You know, when I was a surgery resident,
I always learned from everybody.
I learned who to be like and I
learned who not to be like.
And so I think this is going to
be a very similar moment where the masks
are going to come off and we're going
to be able to see in this moment

(01:03:04):
of moral clarity who is morally clear and
who is confused.
Yeah.
And I'm wondering, Emily Austin, if Emily Austin
is still with us.
I'm wondering, Emily, the people you talk to,
was there anybody who was disappointed?
Anybody who said, you know what?
There's probably a better way to do this
than the United States going in and knocking
out their nuclear plans.
My guess is probably of those that you

(01:03:24):
came in contact with.
No, but you tell me.
No, that was a trick question.
But the answer is no.
I feel like the best proof that tonight's
mission was ultimately a success is we can
see who's upset about it.
Elizabeth Warren, AOC, Rashida, Elon, Chuck Schumer.
This is the litmus test.
And a more serious note, a reoccurring theme

(01:03:46):
that we're discussing tonight is what can we
expect in retaliation?
Now, I want to point out, needless to
say, that Iran's military, militarily they've been weakened.
However, I think it's important that we take
note of what they are capable of doing
in retaliation.
I believe that what they can do is
a cyber strike, cyber attack, something of that
sort, because militarily they're going to need a

(01:04:08):
couple of weeks to recoup, re-strategize.
They're very, very weak right now.
But like everyone else said, I'll echo it,
they're not going to let their ego be
humiliated on such a public stage and meet
at the negotiating table.
I think we know they'd rather die a
martyr than take that route.
Investigate that woman.
Farrah investigation.
Right away.
She's, she's on the gut feel all the

(01:04:30):
time, this gal.
And she's a, she's also wearing a giant
cross of David, or David star.
Yeah, see, there you go.
And she's, well, she doesn't hide it.
And she's...
Yeah, but that's not the same as filling
out your Farrah form.
Gen Z journalist.

(01:04:51):
And she likes to brag about that too.
Well, ultimately this is a, and maybe that's
part of why he was, sounded so sad,
but this is a big gamble for the
president because of his promise of no forever
wars, which has kind of morphed into no
wars, ending the stupid wars.
Either this ends it or it kicks off

(01:05:13):
something more.
And that becomes very irritating.
That could be irritating.
And that would be very, that would be
very bad.
But, but if we go with the thesis
that we ourselves have, have developed, which is
the China thesis and the rigged theaters thesis,

(01:05:33):
it should be fine.
Well, yeah, but they've got to, it's a
certain point.
Why doesn't he just tell the American people
this is, you know, China is the issue
here.
We've, we've, you, we can't use this.
He wants to tell China, Oh, like China's
stupid.
Like, huh?
I wonder what that was about.

(01:05:54):
Well, maybe you have something there, but maybe
that I, it's just, he wants China to
think that he's stupid.
I'm sure they know he's not stupid.
Well, I don't know that they know that
because they, the Democrats keep saying that he
is, he's stupid and he's Hitler and he's
a, and he's a dictator and all the
other stuff.

(01:06:14):
It's got to be confusing.
Well, if he, I mean, not everybody's got
some clarity like we might have in our,
in our producers all seem to have to
where they're not freaking out about everything.
So there are a group that do obviously,
and you have your people there in, in,
uh, in Cornhole, Texas, uh, whatever.

(01:06:35):
I'm sorry.
Wow.
Wow.
It's just podunk.
It's a podunk area.
Lips hard Berkeley.
Give me a break.
So are you wearing, are you wearing your
Kiffey?
Yeah.
When you go shopping, so you don't get
accosted.
Birkenstocks.
Brook.
Well, there's that you're Birkenstocks.
Um, but I just saying it's, it's definitely

(01:06:57):
a risk with the, with the midterms on
the way.
And I think it does feel to me,
but it also triggers a sense of, uh,
a sense of patriotism with a lot of
people.
A lot of, I mean, when you saw
this whole thing take place with the secretiveness
and the craze and how well it was
executed and it was in and out, uh,

(01:07:18):
it, it, I think it turns a lot
of people, sorry, Merca, Merca, baby.
Exactly.
And I think that is good for the
midterms.
I will also say that this, at the
timing of this, maybe to drag a few
people over the line for the big, beautiful
bill.

(01:07:38):
Feels like that was definitely a consideration.
Yeah.
I've been listening to more chit chat about
the big, beautiful bill.
And a lot of it is over the
salt issue.
That seems to be the last thing, just
how much you'll be able to deduct.
So that the, if we recall back in
the first Trump administration, where, when there was,
he went, there was a tax cut for

(01:07:59):
the rich, but we had our, the rich,
they screwed the rich, but because of salt,
you could only deduct up to $10,000
in state and local taxes, which includes mortgages
and everything in between.
And state tax, the whole thing.
And $10,000 was the limit and rich
people, that deduction was hundreds of thousands of

(01:08:21):
dollars in some cases, if you're really loaded.
But they dropped it to 10,000, which
screwed all the rich people that had this,
that counted on that deduction.
So Mike Johnson wants to raise that to
40.
But the Senate wants to keep it at
10.
Yeah.
And there's some sunset provision that's all about,

(01:08:42):
well, it will end in 2028.
And, you know, there's all kinds of shenanigans
going on, but it doesn't seem like it's
about much else.
There's not much else though.
It seems to only be down to the
salt.
I don't think there was much else that
they're still arguing about.
Do a compromise that's going to come out
at 20 and then they'll sign it off.
Best price.

(01:09:03):
Best price.
Yeah.
So we'll see.
I mean, we'll see what happens in the
next, between now and Thursday.
What we need, we need, we need like
the Epstein files to drop or a show
business scandal.
We need something else.
Show business scandal is not going to cut
it.
Epstein files could.

(01:09:25):
There's always stories like this disgusting story, which
could get some attention.
It's probably a good time for it to
come out during the war.
So it doesn't get as much attention.
The dead babies in Ireland story.
They used this as a burial ground.
A baby died almost every fortnight.
There are decades of secrets buried here.

(01:09:46):
So many tales of pain and anguish.
Today is the first glimmer of hope.
Finally, for hundreds of families throughout Ireland and
further afield, that Tuam here in County Galway
will finally give up its dead.
So what happened here?
From 1925 to 1961, nuns ran a so
-called mother and baby home at this site.

(01:10:07):
Somewhere unmarried mothers were sent in disgrace in
deeply Catholic Ireland.
The illegitimate children were treated shamefully.
An inquiry later found around 9,000 infants
died in 18 such homes, resulting in a
state apology four years ago.
In Tuam, historian Catherine Corliss discovered almost 800

(01:10:27):
children had died.
Only two were properly buried.
The rest remain under this grassy patch in
what used to be a sewage tank.
We're standing on the chambers.
There are about 20 of them.
They stretch right across here.
The chambers were built inside the tank.
There are little openings in concrete.

(01:10:47):
And they go down nine foot.
So the babies had to be placed one
on top of the other.
There's no way for an adult to actually
get down into those chambers.
So that's just a horrific thought when you
think about it.
The dumping of the children's remains in this
way sparked outrage in Ireland.
A decade since the story first broke, it's

(01:11:08):
hoped the excavation work starting today can finally
afford a dignified reburial to hundreds of innocent
children whose only crime was being born out
of wedlock.
No, no, that doesn't cut it.
That doesn't get anybody outraged.
They're Irish.
It's like, meh.
I don't, I don't see people get it.

(01:11:28):
Of course, it's horrible, but I don't think.
I thought it'd be the grossest story of
the week.
Now, so, so when you, I look at
my email to see how bad it was.
I don't know what you can come up
with that's going to top the war.
Um, something with Beyonce files might, that's about
it.
I mean, the diddy stuff is, it's all,

(01:11:48):
there's no good.
It's completely no good.
There's nothing in there.
No, it stinks.
I love this email from the truth addict.
Instead of ridiculing people for coming across info
you are unaware of.
Maybe, maybe try a simple web search.
Propaganda, I'm sure, but it's being spoken of

(01:12:10):
contrary to what y'all just lead listeners
to believe.
They were like, what?
Uh, dirty bomb attack.
Iran's next move against Israel.
Dirty bomb attack.
She said nine dirty bombs, dude.
You understand?
It's like, but why, why do you email
me like that?
Why are you even listening?

(01:12:33):
Man, what's the point of that?
Try a simple web search.
Well, you're wrong.
There's dirty bombs.
Dirty bombs are real.
Yeah, of course.
We've been hearing about dirty bombs since we
started doing this show.
And yeah, and before it's always been dirty
bomb, dirty bomb, dirty ball.
It's going to be a dirty bomb.
Okay.
Dirty bomb in New York.
Dirty bomb in California.

(01:12:54):
Dirty bomb everywhere.
Yeah, of course.
We've heard all this.
This is the benefit.
This is the boomer benefit.
We've heard it all.
Boomer benefit.
There's a show show title.
Boomer benefit.
Yeah.
I mean, it is.
And maybe we're just blasé.
Or what is the term?
Jaded.

(01:13:16):
Boomer benefit.
But we've heard it all.
It's like, oh, how many, how many?
You know what?
How about this?
How about we find out there's no gold
at the Federal Reserve?
Remember that?
Remember that?
When is that?
Where's that still in play?
Where's the live stream of that?
By the way, I saw that the largest,

(01:13:39):
let me see, what was it?
It's official.
Geologists have discovered the largest gold deposit ever
recorded, a value of over $80 billion in
China.
Now, what does that do to the price
of gold?
Shouldn't gold go down?
Technically, it should.
And speaking of gold, John, I buy my

(01:13:59):
gold at the Gold Boys over here.
Gold Co.
Gold Co.
I want to make sure that all you
seniors get really worried about the economy and
buy my limited gold coins for 25%
above spot price.
I get 5% of your order.
Gold, it's good.
So I have two clips just to annoy

(01:14:21):
you.
And this is a lecture on planet money
about stable coins, which has a kicker at
the end.
A stable coin.
Which just cracked, the kicker cracked me up.
And you'll catch it.
But this is information.
These are people that don't know anything.

(01:14:45):
Planet money is a goofball show where they
laugh and chuckle at everything they say.
They can barely speak.
Is it still that Kyle guy who hosts
it?
I don't know who's these two.
There's two or three people.
There's actually, if you take a look at
their webpage, they have like 30 people working.
They're probably all making good money.

(01:15:05):
But it's just a goofball show.
And they go on about trying to, and
they're never, it's like always kind of off.
You know, that's not quite right.
You know, but I figured this is perfect
for you.
First, it says that companies that run stable
coins need to hold the equivalent amount of
actual U.S. dollars or close equivalents like
U.S. treasury bonds.

(01:15:26):
Okay, makes sense.
Then it clarifies who's in charge of regulating
stable coins in the U.S. Is this
a stable coin lecture?
This is stable coin.
Oh, stable coin two.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
My indicator is $27.6 trillion.
That's a measure of how much people are
using stable coins globally.
Last year, there was $27.6 trillion worth

(01:15:47):
of trading, payments and transfers on stable coins
like Tether.
And I bring this up because the Senate
has just passed a bill that might bring
special regulation for these cryptocurrencies for the first
time.
Makes sense that there's so much money zipping
through the blockchain that maybe some lawmakers want
to put some guardrails on.
Yes.
And so a reminder of what stable coins
are, they are cryptocurrencies whose value is pegged

(01:16:10):
to something else, often the U.S. dollar.
So unlike Bitcoin or Ether, whose values fluctuate
wildly, you are promised that when you buy
one of these cryptocurrencies, it'll stay basically the
same.
And because of this apparent certainty, stable coins
are increasingly popular.
We'll link to our full explainer on stable
coins in the show notes.

(01:16:32):
These cryptocurrencies are often used for people sending
money across borders who would otherwise face high
bank fees and delays, or they're used in
countries where inflation is high.
Also for scams and drug deals and ransoms.
Yeah.
All right.
So wide range there.
What then is in this bill?
Is it addressing some of those things?
A lot of use cases.

(01:16:53):
Many use cases, as Waylon said.
To be clear, the things I just mentioned
are illegal anyway.
They don't need special regulation.
But the coins themselves seem to.
So the bill does a few things.
Oh, my goodness.
What is this monkey house?
I know they do that constantly.

(01:17:13):
Completely KYC'd stable coin, which somehow is a
cryptocurrency.
You can use that to do drug deals.
OK, yeah, that makes a lot of sense.
OK, now the other clip.
Is this where I'm going to get even
more annoyed by these people?
No, you're going to get really annoyed by
this one.
First, it says that companies that run stable

(01:17:34):
coins need to hold the equivalent amount of
actual U.S. dollars or close equivalents like
U.S. treasury bonds.
OK, makes sense.
Then it clarifies who's in charge of regulating
stable coins in the U.S. The bill
says for large stable coins, it's the office
of the controller of the currency.
And for the smaller stable coins, it's actually

(01:17:54):
up to the state where the stable coin
company is based.
Is that actually like, is one like a
giant coin?
Is that the large one and the small
one is like a dime-sized stable coin?
I'm very confused, Planet Money.
Huh.
OK, so you would hope that then those
state regulators are on top of this.
They're having the baton handed to them.

(01:18:16):
Yeah, and you've hit on a major criticism
of the bill.
Berkeley economist Barry Eichengreen wrote an op-ed
in The New York Times this week.
He pointed out that regulators couldn't move fast
enough to act when Silicon Valley banks' assets
were vaporizing a few years ago.
And so he's skeptical that regulators will be
able to scrutinize the hundreds or even thousands

(01:18:38):
of stable coins that could be issued all
over the country.
Supporters of the bill, though, say that this
at least gives some rules of the road
as opposed to none.
And speaking of rules, I read that the
Trump family can still promote their stable coins
under this bill.
Yeah, members of Congress can't shield a stable
coin game, but presidents and their families, they

(01:19:00):
are notably excluded.
Wow, it's a meme coin.
It's like Trump steaks.
It's sneakers.
Ah, you idiot.
You're right.
I'm very annoyed by that.
I knew that would get you.
The meme coin.
The Trump stable coin, that cracked me up.
I mean, I don't even know that much
about it and caught that a mile away.

(01:19:21):
It is true, though, that, so first of
all, what they don't get right is the
House and the Senate bill differ on who
is going to regulate it.
That's going to be the big thing.
So who's going to regulate stable coin?
And it's certainly true that we're going to
see idiotic things like the Walmart stable coin
and the Amazon stable coin, which you may

(01:19:42):
not be able to use in other places.
It's going to it's going to basically be
like a loyalty card.
It's going to be very stupid.
A lot of this.
But the the market.
Well, how it wouldn't be that much different
than having the Macy's credit card.
Right.
Yeah, no, I agree.
Well, I don't know.
I don't know if you're going to be

(01:20:02):
able to use the Walmart stable coin over
at Amazon.
That's what I don't know.
No, you definitely won't be able to.
Are you kidding me?
I can tell you right now that question.
That's not the same as the Macy's credit
card.
A credit card is a credit card.
Macy's.
No, no, no.
Macy's had their own in-store credit card
that you could only use that.
Macy's.
Oh, you're right.
You're right.
You're right.

(01:20:22):
I forgot about that.
You're right.
OK, so that, first of all, is just
factually wrong.
Whatever they're talking about is really is going
to come down to which agency is going
to regulate it.
But I think the numbers about Tether are
correct.
There's 400 million people using stable coin Tether
stable coin as a U.S. dollar equivalent

(01:20:42):
all over the world, not really in in
the U.S. So we'll see.
I think the better reporting if they had
if the show is worth a crap, this
is not.
It's not.
It's not.
The better reporting would be to tell people
how to implement stable coins in their own
life with details.
Well, people can know I get some sense

(01:21:05):
of it.
This is just pie in the sky.
We don't know what I don't even know.
You know, if you didn't know the first
thing about it, you would say, well, this
is crazy.
And wait, wait, 27 trillion or whatever it
was, a very high number of people.
2.7, 2.7 trillion.
I thought it was 27.
I thought it was 2.7. I'll play
the beginning of this right at the beginning
of the first clip.

(01:21:26):
My indicator is 27.6 trillion dollars.
Oh, you're right.
But that doesn't sound right.
Doesn't well, that's what his indicator is indicator.
OK, so Fifi Lagarde comes out.
You know, Fifi is the buddy Christine Lagarde
of the European Central Bank.

(01:21:46):
Now she's taking questions, a Q&A.
And so she's sitting behind the dais and
she's wearing some glittery type sweater with glittery
speckles.
And she has a sash, a green sash
over her shoulder, like she's at Starfleet Command.
This woman is nuts.

(01:22:08):
You know, she wears she I've seen her
wear this before.
It's almost like a beauty queen.
Yes, yes.
Like I have my sash.
I show authority.
Because, you know, if there was a uniform
for the European Central Bank, she'd wear it.
She might even get uniforms for everybody.
And so she's talking about the digital euro.
Listen to this.

(01:22:29):
Many people are a little worried about what
will happen to them with the digital euro.
Can you encourage them?
Why is the digital euro good for people
like you and me?
The digital currency, where it has been piloted,
and there is only one which is clearly
now launched in a very small country, but

(01:22:50):
it is piloted on a fairly large scale
in China, is of use and of service
to all citizens.
So it is not something that is good
for the elite or is good for the
young or is good for some versus others.
If it is well done and if it
is well implemented, it would be of service

(01:23:11):
to all citizens.
So what I hear her saying is, oh,
you know, China has done it.
It's piloted on a fairly large scale.
And, you know, what the Chinese do is
it's of use and of service to all
citizens.
Yeah, connected to your social credit score.

(01:23:32):
That's what they're planning.
She's planning, and by the way, a stable
coin could be used in the same manner.
But man, she just said, oh, no, China's
doing this great.
It's good for everybody.
And, you know, I told you they're cracking
down.
You can't have more than 3,000 euros
in cash in your possession.

(01:23:54):
It's now illegal.
It's becoming illegal in all the member states
in Europe.
Cannot have more than 3,000 euros in
cash in your possession.
Why?
Because you must be a criminal.
Literally, you must be.
By the way, I think we have a
note from one of our producers.
I think she actually donated.

(01:24:15):
It's probably a long note.
She was coming across the border and had
just under $10,000 in cash and got
pulled aside for the same reason.
There must be drugs.
So she's coming in here?
Yeah, I think she donated.
It's on the card.
It says you can't be moving more than
$10,000 in cash.

(01:24:35):
I know, but I think we'll get to
it when we read her donation note.
But I think what the border patrol said
was, it's just got to be drugs.
We're going to find the drugs.
None of this is good.
That's when you respond.
I already sold the drugs.
That's where I got the money from.
I'm high on them, man.

(01:24:55):
What are you talking about?
You can't get them anymore.
Okay, can I do three NPR clips?
Because I'm a big fan of...
Oh, you're poaching my territory, I see.
Not really, because this is on the media.
On the media has always been my...
Oh, that's right.
Yeah, you've been hogging that one.
I've been on the media, on the media.

(01:25:17):
With Brooke.
I don't remember if it was...
There was a dude who...
It was Brooke Gladstone and her dude buddy.
Well, no, but that's the young guy.
That's Micah.
But before that, there was an older guy.
I think he got kicked off for some
reason.
There was some older guy, so...
It's an ageism.
No, I think he pinched somebody's butt or

(01:25:40):
something.
There was something, he had to go.
And, you know, I like on the media.
It's an NPR podcast, is how I listen
to it.
About the media.
It's also on the air.
I know, but it's about the media.
And so when podcasting was coming up, NPR
was all jacked about.
Whoa, Adam Curry, blah, blah, blah, blah.

(01:26:00):
Did Adam Curry, blah, blah, blah?
That's exactly what they said.
It's what I remember of the conversation.
Adam Curry, blah, blah, blah.
But it was about podcasting.
But it was media.
It's always been about the media.
Now, of course, with Congress, not President Trump
directly, but Congress threatening to cut their 1
% of funding, which just seems like it's

(01:26:21):
so horrible.
Man, they've gone full Trump hate.
This is the beginning of on the media
for this week.
Last Saturday, Trump looked a bit glum at
his, I mean, the Army's birthday parade.
Right there at his, I mean, the Army's
birthday parade.

(01:26:41):
That is, is that reporting?
No, it's a bias of observations.
Well, it just keeps, so the minute I
heard that, I'm like, this is not about
media.
This is about how much you hate Trump.
Last Saturday, Trump looked a bit glum at
his, I mean, the Army's birthday parade.

(01:27:02):
The soldiers weren't in tight formation.
They smiled and waved.
But with sparse crowds and very high humidity,
military.com noted that the mood was shaped
by a strange quiet.
The organizers were expecting around 200,000 people.
That's definitely not the case.
Newsmax.
Newsmax is reporting 10,000 people showed up

(01:27:24):
for this thing.
Michael Wolff, author of the 2018 bestseller, Fire
and Fury, Inside the Trump White House, told
the Daily Beast that he'd heard the president
later reamed out- Reamed.
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth over the parade's mildly
festive tone.
Wolff suggested that the problem was maybe it
wasn't quite North Korean enough.

(01:27:46):
He didn't send the message that he apparently
wanted, which is that he was the commander
in chief of this.
So she says it wasn't North Korea.
That was not in the article.
This is all very strange editorializing, and I
think they're hurting the show because I didn't
like it.
It's menacing.
I want media.

(01:28:08):
Anyway, the president clearly wasn't happy.
I think the simple word here is hurt.
That's CNN data analyst, Harry Enten, the day
before the parade, talking not about Trump's feelings,
but his poll numbers.
You can see it right here.
We have two new polls.
Quinnipiac University, AP Newark, minus 12 to minus
16.
How about AP Newark?
Minus 16 to minus 21.

(01:28:30):
Awful, awful, awful.
The worst for Donald Trump in this term
so far.
He is very much way, way, way underwater,
at least in these two polls.
Still not about media so far.
Now we're talking about Trump's poll numbers, which
I just can't make the connection to the
On the Media podcast.
And on immigration specifically, a drop of six

(01:28:51):
points in the last two weeks.
The only thing that's happened over the last
two weeks is obviously Donald Trump's ramped up
immigration hawkish agenda.
And at least at this particular point, the
American people are saying, no, we do not
like that.
And they have turned against the president on
his core strength issue of immigration.
He is now underwater on the issue that

(01:29:12):
has been strongest for him.
And the estimated 5 million that filled the
streets of 2,000 towns and cities in
opposition, a historic number rallying under the banner
No Kings.
I love how she just her tone changes.
It's so amazing.
It was historic.
It's so great.
No Kings.
Still not about media.

(01:29:33):
What a gut punch for a guy who
cares so much about the numbers.
A gut punch.
But hey, now we got a war on,
maybe.
And better still, it's far away.
We won't see that play out in our
streets.
So the way is clear for the president
to seize the narrative and make it his
own once he figures out what that is.

(01:29:54):
And still not about media.
And then after this last minute, I'm like,
okay, this is not going to be about
media anymore.
But listen to this.
Trouble is we have so much of our
own violence right here, right in our faces,
which is a little less susceptible to spin.
Do you have the violence in your faces,
John?
Have you seen the violence in your face?
I've seen no violence in my face for

(01:30:17):
a decade.
But the stalwarts will go down trying.
If you're to believe MAGA, the left is
fundamentally more violent than the right.
When Minnesota lawmaker Melissa Hortman and her husband
were murdered last weekend and two others were
shot.
Now we're going to talk about media.
Here's what Don Jr. had to say about
the shooter.

(01:30:37):
Everyone talks about Minnesota, but they don't talk
about the guy seems to be a leftist.
You walk into some place, you see a
bowl of fruit.
And from 20 feet away, you go, that's
fake.
That's Alex Jones, notorious for labeling the 2012
massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary a hoax.
When it comes to murder, he prefers to
doubt what he sees.

(01:30:58):
It looks real, but your mind knows because
it knows the look.
This thing smells of some type of sophisticated
operation.
The accused shooter turned out to be a
Trump supporter and a fan of Alex Jones'
show Infowars.
What?
He was a fan of Infowars?
Now we're talking media.

(01:31:19):
I had not heard this.
Studies have found that although political violence is
on the rise overall.
But this is just a lie.
It's great.
The left goes in for property damage.
Murders are more the province of the right.
The left destroys property.
The right kills people.
Is the message clear yet?

(01:31:40):
As Elon Musk learned by way of his
own AI chatbot, Grok.
A user on X asked whether right-wing
political violence or left-wing political violence is
more prevalent in this country.
Grok unapologetically said right-wing political violence is
way more prevalent.
Elon says major fail as this is objectively
false.

(01:32:01):
Grok is parroting legacy media working on it.
But when challenged, Grok only quoted more studies
and stuck to its guns.
I mean, no wonder people who listen to
NPR that are customers of My Hair Girl
are spun up and spun out.
This is bad.

(01:32:22):
Yeah, it's just pure propaganda.
Totally.
He was a Trump supporter and an Alex
Jones listener.
Did he have boner pills in his back
pocket?
How did they know that?
I found out he came out and says
Waltz hired him as a hitman.
Yeah, kill Amy Klobuchar.

(01:32:45):
That's what he said.
Yeah, that's a good bit.
He says that Waltz hired him to kill
Amy Klobuchar because when Waltz is out as
governor, he wants to run as senator and
he wants that spot.
And then my thesis, which I wrote outlined
in the newsletter, was that he killed this
woman who was the head of the Senate
or state senate or assembly.
I think it was the Senate that was

(01:33:06):
very popular in Minnesota.
And she would have been the shoe in
for Amy Klobuchar if she had been assassinated.
So they had to make way for for
walls by doing by killing both.
Yeah, by killing both.
Well, if that wasn't crazy enough, our very
own Democrat representative, Hank Johnson, took to his

(01:33:30):
guitar this week.
I just have to play this.
I saw part of this.
I wish I'd clipped.
Oh, this is fantastic.
This is this is the guy who thinks
that islands can flip over.
Well, I was going to play that as
my punch line, but I'll play it now
then.
Yeah, my fear is that the whole island

(01:33:50):
will become so overly populated that it will
tip over and and capsize.
That was representative Hank Johnson about Guam.
He's notorious for being one of the dumbest
people in the world.
He thinks islands are floating.
Listen to this.
Just recently picked it up.

(01:34:11):
Thought I would try it out.
I hate to hurt your ears and everything,
but I'm just learning to play guitar.
And so I'm compelled with a new guitar
and with some thoughts about that old song.
Hey, Joe, you know, to give some commentary
on where we are now.
And if you don't mind, I'm going to
just strum a little bit.

(01:34:39):
Hey, Trump, where you going with that gun
in your hand?
Hey, Trump, where you going with that gun
in your hand?
And you complain about our end of show
mixes.

(01:35:06):
This is great.
Down the street, shoot down democracy.
You're going to shoot down democracy.
Oh, my goodness.
Why would you do that?
I mean, that's basically how I play guitar.
And you've never heard me play guitar on

(01:35:27):
the show.
Not on the pre-show, nothing.
I'll play the theremin, but I will not
play my guitar.
That was just that was a head scratcher
why he did that.
Was there people going, that's a great idea,
man.
That's a great idea.
That's exactly what happened.
When you got a guy like that, who's
that dumb.
He's actually, you know, I think between him
and the Hiromo woman, that woman from Hawaii.

(01:35:50):
When they're that dumb, you can talk them
into stuff.
And I think people just laughing up their
sleeve.
His friends.
Hey, his friends, so-called friends is a
great idea, Hank.
That'll show Trump.
Yeah, that'll show him.
It was probably Collins.
Collins like, hey, man, you're great on that
guitar.
You should play.
I do it all the time.

(01:36:10):
I do Puff the Magic Dragon.
You should do something from a black guy.
I know Hendrix.
And then just in bad stuff that circles
around on the stupid internet.
I don't know if you caught this meme
that went viral.
So there's videos going viral of the US
military being served steak and lobster all over

(01:36:33):
social media.
If you're familiar with the military, you know
about the steak and lobster.
Are we about to be in the middle
of a conflict?
Take a look at this.
Lobster and steak.
I wasn't in the military, but I'm going
by what people in the military in my

(01:36:54):
family have told me.
Let's take a look at what it means.
Take a look right here from Google.
You're correct.
He's reading from Google AI.
In that serving lobster and often steak, creating
surf and turf to US troops, especially during
deployments is a known morale booster.

(01:37:15):
So the whole idea is they're going to
send the troops in the Middle East because
they're giving them the deployment meal.
This is it.
They said it's surf and turf, except this
is like from February.
It's a very old video, and it just
these things keep coming back viewed 9 million
times.
The Internet is so broken, and the amount

(01:37:39):
of people who just don't search anymore.
They just ask the AI.
Yeah, and that's all across the spectrum.
The amount of people who ask Grok, Hey,
Grok, tell me if this is true.
Yeah, it's the big, it's exactly what's happening.
It's a very, very distressing to me, but

(01:38:02):
the search engines themselves have been failing anyway.
True, true.
I mean, I still can't find the weed
whacker.
That's that remains.
I found you the weed whacker.
You just didn't like the results.
You just didn't like the results.
That's that's all that it was.
You don't like it.
And then the other thing this week was
I don't have the clip.

(01:38:23):
I couldn't bring myself to clip it.
Whoopi Goldberg telling the Persian lady that black
people have it worse than the black women
have it worse than Iranian women in Iran.
Did you see that?
That was just like everybody showed that so
much.
I have the Bill Maher response to it
with.
Oh, I didn't hear that.

(01:38:44):
Yeah.
With Wesley Hunt.
He's a Texas representative, a black guy.
And here's how that went down.
Did you think of Whoopi Goldberg saying it's
worse to be a black person in America
today than a woman in Iran?
You know, I say we were talking about
the trans issue before, and The New York
Times really has come over on that to

(01:39:05):
the sort of the sensible, liberal, not crazy
woke position.
I think this is a great first step
toward getting Democrats back to sanity.
And a second good step would be we
got to do something about the view.
I really believe that.
I mean, it's huge in Iran, though.

(01:39:29):
When I mentioned the view in Iran, you
can't even tell which one is which.
My district in the great state of Texas
is actually a white majority district that President
Trump would have won by 25 points.
As I said, I'm a direct descendant of
a slave.
My great, great grandfather was born on a
rose down plantation.
I am literally being judged not by the

(01:39:51):
color of my skin, but by the content
of my character.
That's the progress, because like a lot of
white people had to vote for me.
A lot.
So I don't even ever want to hear
whooping over his conversation about how it's worse
to be black in America right now.
Some sanity.
People want to get rid of the view
now, which will never happen.

(01:40:13):
It'll never happen.
They'll never know because now it's become bulletproof.
Unless the ratings all of a sudden take
a huge dive.
Yeah, I don't see that people love them.
So I think there's a dedicated group of
people that love the show.
And then there's all the people that follow
it just so they can ridicule it.
There's no excuse for that type of activity.

(01:40:36):
You know, just going back to Chad GPT
for a second, just because I saw this
article, I'd stuck in the show notes.
So MIT did a I'm not sure I
don't have the actual document, so I can
only give you the summaries that I have.
They did brain scans.
So that would be MRIs, I guess.

(01:40:57):
Now, what's the what's the probably and what's
the one that the brain professor used to
do?
It had to be MRI.
Yeah, but it's cat scans.
The other one.
Yeah, that's dangerous.
Yeah.
An MRI of people using Chad GPT.
And so they studied people for four months.
Our findings offer an interesting glimpse in how

(01:41:19):
LLM assisted versus unassisted writing engage the brain
differently.
In summary, writing an essay without assistance, brain
only group led to stronger neural connectivity across
all frequency bands measured with particularly large increases
in the theta and high alpha bands.
This indicates participants in the brain only group
had to heavily engage on their own cognitive

(01:41:41):
resources.
So if you see the people who used
AI to write essays, they couldn't even remember
what was in the essay four minutes later.
And what's happening is that, yeah, of course.
And so because you write something, you're, you
know, you're writing your brain.
Yeah, you're creating it out of nothing for
starters.

(01:42:02):
Yes.
So by creating something out of nothing, which
is what writing is, as opposed to cut
and paste, which is what AI amounts to.
Yes.
Yeah, you would have a change.
It would change the pattern a bit.
It changes people's critical thinking.
Well, it changes all.
It dumbs your brain.

(01:42:25):
It makes you, it makes you stupid.
Artificial intelligence makes you stupid.
Oh, there's a bumper sticker.
Maybe that's the idea.
Trying to dumb down the public so they
could go along with some of these programs.
Well, it's working.
So we can steal their money, say the
Democrats.
It's already working.
And then this one now, I'm surprised that

(01:42:46):
this, this isn't getting the play that I
think they wanted it to get, because it
is a 100% marketing move.
This is the 16 billion passwords leaked from
Apple, Facebook, Google, and others.
Did you hear about this?
No.
Oh, yeah, he's.
Well, you know, actually, I saw it's one
of those, I saw some reference to it,

(01:43:08):
and I never followed up.
So Forbes, this is Forbes, because of course,
they'll date Davey Winder will publish anything senior
contributor.
He's a veteran cyber security writer, hacker and
analyst.
16 billion Apple, Facebook, Google and other passwords
leaked.

(01:43:28):
And it's like, oh, this is horrible.
This is a problem.
This is a big deal.
And so everywhere you turn, it all boils
down to one thing.
And this analyst who forget where he's from,
maybe they mentioned the intro.
He gives it away twice.
Researchers say billions of login details have been
leaked, giving criminals access to accounts around the

(01:43:49):
world.
The security firm Cyber News is warning that
the data breaches affect Google, Apple and Facebook.
Researchers say they amount to about 16 billion
hacked credentials, which means many people affected are
likely to have had their login details for
more than one account leaked.
The report suggests that the data was stolen
through multiple events over time and not just

(01:44:10):
from a single hack.
Experts are advising people to change passwords and
use multifactor authorization.
Please help us out.
16 billion compromised credentials.
How bad is this leak?
Well, the good news is, is that this
isn't really a new data breach.
As you mentioned before, this is a compilation
of data that's been compiled over a very

(01:44:31):
long period of time.
The bad news, of course, is that 16
billion credentials is quite a lot.
And what it really indicates is the success
of a new form of malware that has
been rising to prominence called the Info Stealer,
which is capable of stealing hundreds of credentials
all at once.
That's why the number has gotten quite so
high.
I think over the span of time that
this breach covers, it is very likely that

(01:44:53):
you have changed your password, added two-factor
authentication, ideally in the form of an authenticator
code or even better, what's called a passkey.
Now, they are taking steps to make sure
that this is less relevant in the future.
For example, if you sign up for a
Microsoft account right now, you won't actually create
it with a password.
You'll create it with something called a passkey.
Apple and Google and the other internet giants

(01:45:15):
have also done a good job of trying
to kill the password.
This is what it's about.
Microsoft has been pushing this passkey for quite
a while now.
Google does the same thing.
You log in like, oh, you know what?
Why don't you just get rid of your
password?
Use a passkey.
Do you know anything about these passkeys?

(01:45:36):
No, it sounds like a version of a
password.
Yeah, they're annoying is what they're...
It's like if you lose your passkey, then
just...
I need someone to help me out with
this, but they're pushing this very hard.
And to me, it sounds like if you
use a passkey, the only person really in

(01:45:56):
charge of your credentials is the person who
issued the passkey, i.e. Microsoft and Google.
And then you have to go to them
and say, oh, you know, I lost my
passkey.
How is a passkey different than a password?
Well, the password, ultimately, if...
So you can forget your password or you

(01:46:17):
can lose your password, but that...
Let's drop those two premises.
I'm not going to lose or forget my
password.
How is it different than a password?
So a passkey, as I understand it, is
issued by someone else.
So how's that different than what MCI Mail
did in the early days before the Internet?

(01:46:39):
And when you had a...
They gave you a password that they generated
and you used it.
Yeah, but they...
So you don't know the password.
That's the thing.
Oh, you don't know the passkey.
No, you don't.
They store it and...
Well, how do you log in then?
I think it's like a certificate type deal.
So you have this passkey thing.

(01:47:00):
It's in a cookie or it's sitting on
the file somewhere.
What if you change machines?
Well, there's a good question.
All I hear from my geek friends is,
oh, passkey, I hate them.
They suck.
So they must suck.
I'll have to look into it now.
Yeah, you need to write something on the
OASIS.
I can write something up.

(01:47:21):
Don't use chappy to GPT because you become
stupid.
And we need you smart.
We need you sharp for the show.
That was the eye-opener for me.
That people are getting dumb?
Artificial intelligence.
I'm...
Whoa, I'm shocked.
Artificial intelligence.
That the public is getting stupider by the
minute.
And AI is making it worse.

(01:47:44):
Oh, no.
They finally found a trick.
How can we make people even stupider?
Even dumber.
We've tried the drugs.
The drugs, yeah, they become a little more
susceptible.
Can we make them...
Nobody can even learn anything except gender, the
ideology.
That's dumbed them down enough that they're cutting

(01:48:05):
their dick off.
How can we make them dumber than that?
How can we make somebody dumber than that?
I know, I know.
Let's give them artificial intelligence, and that will
make them human stupid.
It's fantastic.
They finally got to something.
This is the ultimate goal.

(01:48:25):
I think we finally figured it out.
That's it?
So that people will believe stuff like carbon
budget?
Stark warning.
A new report from over 60 climate scientists
showing the world may be running out of
time for limiting global warming to 1.5
degrees.
I think it shows a pretty harsh reality,
right?

(01:48:45):
You know, things aren't just getting worse, they're
getting worse faster.
We're actively moving in the wrong direction in
a critical period of time that we would
need to meet our most ambitious climate goals.
Some reports, there's a silver lining.
I don't think there really is one in
this one.
Scientists say we're on track to burn through
the planet's remaining carbon budget faster than expected.
That budget represents the total amount of greenhouse

(01:49:08):
gases we can emit and still have a
50-50 chance of keeping warming to 1
.5 degrees above pre-industrial levels.
See, this is what we identified on the
last show.
They've pivoted to this carbon budget and it's
500 metric megatrillion tons, whatever it is.
And we're running out.

(01:49:28):
The budget is running.
So they've basically equated climate change with money.
And that's the point.
Back in 2021, the UN estimated that we
can afford to release around 500 billion tons
of carbon dioxide and still be on track.
But today that figure has dropped to 130
billion tons.

(01:49:49):
By 2028, the world would have pumped out
enough CO2 that even a 50% chance
of staying within the Paris goal would be
off the table.
Meanwhile, the impacts of climate change are already
being seen across the planet.
We are seeing the impacts of climate change
on extreme heat.
We're seeing it on extreme rainfall.

(01:50:09):
We're seeing it on sea level rise and
storm surges if you're in a coastal area.
We're seeing it in wildfires.
And it is now no longer possible to
just say, oh, you know, this is just
something that the scientists worry about.
It doesn't affect normal people.
It's affecting normal people.
It's affecting them all over the world.
It's affecting normal people who write essays with

(01:50:31):
Chad GPT.
You know, I'm looking at the quad screen
and they're showing videos of the B2 rolling
out of the hangar.
That thing looks dopey.
It looks dopey when it's coming out of
the hangar.
It looks like an amphibious vehicle.
No, it doesn't look, no, it's not.
It only looks good when it's flying.
Yeah.
Looks dynamite when it's flying.

(01:50:52):
It looks wobbly.
Looks like a Cessna rolling out of the
hangar.
A flying wing.
Yeah, yeah.
It looks a little dopey.
The big, big cabin on top.
All right.
I'll give you another minute here before we
take a break if you want to.
You have to take a break?
What?
Yeah, we should.

(01:51:12):
We should.
I want to keep us on track.
You're getting donations after three o'clock.
We got donations.
I saw it.
We got long, long notes.
There's a couple of things.
Roy McGovern was on, I thought it was
funny.
Who's the?
Roy McGovern was on Al Jazeera just before
the bombing.
Who's this?
I'm sorry, Ray.

(01:51:32):
Ray McGovern.
Who's Ray McGovern?
The CIA guy.
He's the ex-CIA guy who used to
be on Democracy Now!
all the time.
And he's been flying around.
And he's, he's in a now, his, I'm
sorry, ex, with air quotes?
No, no, just, no.
Ex-CIA?
Mm-hmm.
He's ex-CIA, real ex-CIA.
Oh, sure.
But he's like, hasn't been in, I don't,

(01:51:54):
I don't think he's working for him.
I just don't think he's connected.
And he's, he gave a two-part analysis
that was wrong as could be.
But I'm waiting, I'm thinking there's, I got
these different clips I should go to.
Um, uh, since we only have a little

(01:52:15):
time, I want to play my TikTok clips
then.
Oh.
I'll play the Ray McGovern clips later.
Well, you kind of surprised me with that.
I wasn't- Yeah, I know.
I changed it to mid-stream.
Talk.
Talk.
TikTok.
All right.
The highlight of the show, everybody.
Well, to me.
I mean, if AI's not going to get

(01:52:36):
your TikTok clips, Will.
Yep.
So there's this woman named Kylie who does
just, she's just constantly, she's a teacher or
something.
She's on to all the, she does it
every, every day.
She has some, something to tell us and
they're all just junk and it's pathetic.
And she goes on and on.
She's so self-absorbed and self-assured.

(01:52:57):
Now she's going to give us a lecture
on conservatives.
Hi, my name is Kylie.
And here are four categories of conservative people.
I grew up around a lot of conservative
people.
So I've noticed there are four major patterns
or types of people that fall into this
category.
Number one, narcissists.
These are people that expect the world to
revolve around them.
And when it doesn't, they become angry and
start to scapegoat one of the many minorities
that they do this to.
An example of someone notable would be Donald

(01:53:19):
Trump or Ted Cruz.
Number two, social misfits.
These are people that are honestly incredibly intelligent,
but they were consistently bullied as children or
just never really found community.
They've always been the weird one that no
one likes.
And because of that, they begin to take
it out on other people and promoting hateful
ideas.
So think maybe like Ben Shapiro for this
category.
Number three, ignorant people.
These are generally people who are apolitical and
don't see color and they just don't care

(01:53:40):
enough or don't know enough.
So they end up adopting the beliefs of
their friends, family, and community.
And number four, last but not least, stupid
people.
These are people who didn't go to college
and just don't care about learning generally speaking.
They coasted through school and they probably read
about like a fifth grade reading love.
You just don't have a very sophisticated knowledge
of settler colonialism or racism or systemic issues
that underlie our society.

(01:54:01):
So they become susceptible to propaganda.
Judge not- So this is the kind
of person who's teaching your kids.
No, I don't know if the, are the
kids watching this?
It seems like you are watching.
No, no, I'm talking, she's a professor.
She's a teacher.
Oh, she's a teacher.
I believe.
Oh, Kylie the, well, she's a teacher on

(01:54:22):
TikTok.
Well, which brings us to the opposite end
of the spectrum, a lady trucker who, and
I think that the, I guess Oklahoma just
passed a law that said if you try
to stop somebody's car, they can run you
over.
And I think Florida has a similar law.
What do you mean if you stop, you

(01:54:42):
stop them?
When you're in a, you're in a situation,
there's a bunch of protests and you're trying
to get through something.
They surround your car and they just stop
it and they're pounding on your car.
You can run them over.
Wow.
But that's only in like Florida and Oklahoma.
Now Texas needs to get on board.
Every place else that has happened.
What?
Texas needs to get on board.
Yes, they do.

(01:55:05):
And this woman who's a trucker with a
Peterbilt, she has a, or a big, some
monster truck.
Big rig.
She's a tough chick and she is, I
think, expressing a view that a lot of
people feel.
So I hear talk that there's a lot
of people planning on doing protests out in

(01:55:25):
the streets across the country soon.
I just want to tell you a little
fun fact about truck drivers.
You see this thing behind me?
80,000 pounds.
Takes nearly two football fields to come to
a complete stop when we're driving at interstate
speed.
For us truck drivers out here, we're just
trying to make a living.
We're just trying to pay our bills, support
our families and go home.
And I can tell you this.

(01:55:46):
If you guys start standing out in the
middle of the interstate, us truck drivers, we're
not going to stop.
You see a truck driver by the name
of Reginald Denny stopped once for a protest.
Rather, it was more of a riot.
But he got pulled out of his truck
and he got beaten to death.
A man that had a family to go
home to who was just trying to do
his job.
So if you decide to stand in front

(01:56:06):
of one of these on the interstate for
your little protest or whatever you want to
call it, I call it domestic terrorism.
I guarantee you that truck driver that fears
for their life is going to do whatever
they have to do to get themselves out
of that situation where they feel they're in
danger.
And in that situation, the best thing for
us to do is push that throttle to
the floor.
Huh, I don't think Reginald Denny died.

(01:56:27):
It was not good, but I don't think
he died.
I don't know if he died or not.
I didn't look it up now.
No, no.
But using the Reginald Denny as the excuse
for running people over is I think is
going to be a commonplace.
Hey, there's something to running people over who
are standing in the middle of the interstate

(01:56:48):
trying to stop you from moving.
This is not good.
None of this is good.
You have to murder people.
You have to run the plow through them
like they did this one video going around
with a person in a Toyota ran over
some poor woman.
She was in the front yelling and screaming.
It's like that other maniac that you talked

(01:57:09):
about a couple of shows ago.
But she, the woman ran her over.
I mean, ended up knocking her to the
side and didn't run over her legs, which
was an unpleasant experience.
You see the car bumping up and down.
I actually have an educational TikTok clip that
I wanted to share with you.
Oh, OK.

(01:57:30):
Hey, poacher.
Hey, poacher.
I think you'll find this fascinating and informative.
I don't like the way straight women talk.
And I don't mean that in a bad
way at all.
I've just noticed there is a huge difference
between the way queer women and straight women
talk.
For straight women, there's very much an expectation
that you're dainty and small.
And so a lot of straight women will

(01:57:50):
talk like this and raise their voice and
talk really high.
Think of Sabrina Carpenter or Ariana Grande.
They have a tendency to raise the pitch
of their voice to be seen as more
feminine.
It's almost like a sorority voice or a
customer service voice.
But queer women, because we date other women,
we do not feel the need to do
that.
The way queer women talk is more natural.
It's a little bit more raspy, usually more

(01:58:11):
of a vocal fry.
That's one of the ways that I was
able to tell that I was queer, because
speaking in that high pitch tone felt very
unnatural and very forced.
And to this day, that's how I'm able
to pinpoint women that are queer, even if
they haven't come out yet.
I see a lot of people talking about
gay voice for men and how it's higher
pitch, but not a lot of people talk
about the inverse of that, which is for
queer women, which is like a lesbian voice

(01:58:32):
that's deeper and raspier.
And that's why queer women are honestly seen
as less friendly.
I could go on and on about this,
but let me know what y'all think
in the comments.
How about that?
The more you know.
I think it's bullcrap.
Well, of course it's bullcrap.
I found out I was queer because of
my voice.
That's what she said.

(01:58:54):
She literally said- She was queer.
Yeah, which is code now for lesbian.
That's another- Which is code for something.
I think the lesbians should get mad now.
Seriously.
By my, because of my voice.
No, but I mean, the queer is stealing
their lesbian.
Yes, I think so.

(01:59:15):
That's, oh man.
Kara Swisher, where are you?
Weigh in on this.
I want Kara Swisher.
She'd be on board with it.
She'd be on board with it, yeah.
Do you think she considers herself queer now?
Yeah, I'll bet you she does.
I'll have to tune in.
I have two episodes backed up.

(01:59:37):
Well, I think that's the way to top
it off, to go into the fabulous donations.
Well, and with that, I'd like to thank
you for your courage and say in the
morning to you, the man who put the
sea in the waning crescent, say hello to
my friend on the other end, the one,
the only, Mr. John C.
Dvorak!
Hey, in the morning to you, Mr. Adam

(01:59:58):
Curry.
In the morning, all ships of sea, boots
on the ground, feet in the air, subs
in the water, and all the names and
nights out there.
In the morning to the trolls over there,
and the troll only counts you for a
second.
Oh, don't run away, stop running.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Well, it's amazing how no donations came in
after three, but 2,869 trolls tuning into

(02:00:19):
the live stream today.
That's epic.
That's epic.
It's epic, I tell you.
Well, not really.
It's epic.
It's epic.
Hello, trolls.
For the last, for this year, yeah.
Yeah, yes.
Trolls are in the troll room at trollroom
.io. You know what the high is, right?

(02:00:39):
Yeah, 4,000 or something.
Yep, over 4,000.
When was that?
What was the episode?
I wrote it down somewhere.
Whatever it was, we need that to happen
again.
But the thing is, it doesn't result in
donations.
4,038 was the number.
You don't know the episode or what the
occasion was?

(02:01:00):
You'd think you'd want to correlate.
It must have been a Trump thing.
You know, I just wrote on a little
stick it thing, and I didn't put the
date.
It was about two years ago.
Anyway, the trolls can also use modern technology.
I didn't expect to be grilled about the
details.
I don't know how many people are watching
this.
People are in Iran.

(02:01:20):
I'm not the no agenda troll expert.
Ted Cruz.
Ted, Ted, Ted, Ted.
Good lawyer.
Dope otherwise.
Don't want to judge, but...
So the trolls are making use, many of
them, of modern technology, created by independent software
developers who make these modern podcast apps, which

(02:01:43):
have many, many benefits.
You know, Spotify is now using Chapters, which
is a podcasting 2.0 enhancement to podcasting.
Oh, great.
I'm sure they appreciate it.
I'm sorry, not Chapters.
Give a big thank you to the podcasting
2.0 community.
Transcripts, transcripts, not chapters, transcripts.

(02:02:05):
And no, of course they didn't.
And of course they do it a little
bit differently.
So, you know, they bought Anchor, a big
free hosting company.
For, I don't know, way too much money.
And so they now create...
So if you use Anchor and 2 million
of the...

(02:02:25):
I think it was 1.8 million Anchor
podcasts.
Most of them have one episode that go
like this.
Test poop, test poop.
And that's the whole podcast.
I know because we've got to get rid
of all those.
We have systems to check if that's all
that is.
Test poop, test poop.
Okay, very good.
So they actually create the transcript.

(02:02:46):
By the way, just what's your complaining about
stuff?
What is these podcasts?
I've said, I think maybe I bitched about
this before.
What is this podcast?
Podcast begins in five minutes.
4.59, 4.58, 4.50. Who cares?
What?
Just cut that out.

(02:03:08):
What is the 10, 9, 8?
What would just start the damn thing?
We're live, everybody.
We're live.
We're live.
Okay, are we live?
Let me check.
I'll wait a few minutes for you people
to get in here.
Let's make sure you get into the live.
Oh, that's another one.
Are you on the live?
Yeah, I'll wait for y'all to get
into the live.
You sit there and you diddle around.
Here comes in some more people.

(02:03:29):
I don't know.
I don't know what that's about.
With the modern podcast app, you just get
an alert and then we're live.
And you tap on it and we're live
and you're good to go.
In fact, I do it a little bit
early.
I do it during the Fat Lady so
that people can gear up, you know, sing
along with the Fat Lady and then you're
good to go.
You know that we're live.
We don't need a countdown clock like we're

(02:03:50):
waiting for liftoff.
And it's always around the same time anyway.
So yeah, that's a very good question.
I don't know.
It's overproduced nonsense.
It's people trying to be, they're trying to
create tension and excitement and expectation to see
two dudes with cans.

(02:04:12):
All right, we're live.
Are we live?
Yeah, we're live.
Okay, let me see.
Are we also live on the Insta?
Let's check the Insta.
Okay, we're live.
No, thank you.
No, because of course, you can also get
delived from those platforms.
Don't do it.
Don't do it, people.
Just get into modern podcasting.
Go to podcastapps.com.
For iOS users, Castamatic, which is made by

(02:04:36):
Franco.
Franco is a doctor in Italy.
He works four days a week as a
doctor, saving lives.
And then one day a week, he programs
and saves souls with podcasting.
And he creates the Castamatic.
He just put out a new version.
That's an admirable character.
He's a great guy.
We had him on the Podcasting 2.0

(02:04:57):
podcast on Friday.
He's a great guy.
He's so nice.
And I said, hey, when you're debugging software,
is it the same way you debug humans?
And he said, if only humans had a
log file, that would be much easier.
So he created Castamatic a while ago.
And he just added all the live stuff

(02:05:17):
with the notifications.
It is, I think, one of the best
Apple iPhone podcast apps there is.
I don't have an iPhone, but I've seen
it work.
And it's very impressive.
It has a very iPhone feel to it.
So Castamatic, you can get it from the
app store.
Or go to podcastapps.com and see many
more.
It's a very good product.

(02:05:38):
And when we go live, you'll get an
alert right on time.
And then when we publish the show, unlike
your legacy app, within 90 seconds, you'll know
that the show is available.
Don't be like your granddad with it.
Oh, granddad using Spotify.
Oh, I didn't even get to the Spotify
part.
So they will create a podcasting 2.0

(02:05:58):
transcript.
So if you publish with Spotify hosting for
podcasts or whatever they call it, and you
use a modern podcast app, the transcript will
show up.
However, our show, which isn't on Spotify, but
if our show was on Spotify, they don't
accept the exact same technology from other hosting

(02:06:19):
companies.
You have to go to Spotify and use
their transcripts.
Well, that stinks.
It's stupid.
They think somehow that that's going to work
for them.
They're losing users every day with shenanigans like
this.

(02:06:40):
It's baffling.
It's baffling what big technology companies will do
sometimes.
I don't understand it.
Anyway, so Franco puts his heart, his soul,
his time, his talent into his app.
And we're very appreciative that he does that.
And we have many producers who like to
return value to this very podcast, which is

(02:07:01):
a value for value podcast.
Go look it up, valueforvalue.info, value number
for value.info, if you want the full
backstory on it.
Pioneered on this very podcast.
It's now a thing.
People just call everything value.
Oh, Patreon, value for value.
No, not.
We give you the full on experience for
free.
No, Patreon is not value for value.

(02:07:22):
Value for value has to have a variable
donation.
Yes, style, which we stumbled upon early on,
because people, if you remember, when we first
started, it's hard to get taking donations and
reading all the people that donate.
They always had these code numbers.
Yeah, numerology.
And they like to say, oh, yeah, I'm
donating 666.
I'm the devil.

(02:07:42):
69, 69, dudes.
69, 69.
Gotcha.
You guys, you said it.
You said 69, man.
Yeah, there's a lot of Beavis and Butthead
type stuff going on.
But besides that, we haven't gotten an Angigi
donation in a while.

(02:08:04):
We have the upside down eggs or eggs
over easy.
I mean, people like it.
They come up with stuff.
It sticks.
It becomes lore of the show.
But also, double nickels on the dime was,
for a couple of years, one of the
most popular donations.
Sergeant Fred started that double nickels on the
dime.
Yes.
So it's also so you can determine the

(02:08:28):
value yourself.
We're not roping you into something.
And it's like, I think that this was
a $12 show.
OK.
I think this was a $120 show.
Good.
And that all depends on you, not on
us.
We can't determine what the value is to
you.
But we do ask you to send some
back.
That's all.
And you can do that with time, talent,
or treasure.
We love it when people give us.

(02:08:49):
Even if you hate the show, you're getting
something out of it.
Yeah, hate.
Hate is a valid emotion.
It's valuable to some people.
We have artists who are now prompt jockeys,
most of them, with still some real artists
around.
But most of them have just fallen by
the wayside.

(02:09:09):
AI has definitely killed art on this show.
There's no doubt about it.
And I'm sad about it.
But on the other hand.
On the other hand, I'm happy because in
a weird roundabout way, we have discovered the
whole idea of the AI Music Awards, which.
Yes.

(02:09:29):
It was pre-show.
Yeah.
Hold on a second.
Let me register that right away.
AIMusicAwards.com.
Tell me that isn't taken.
You think that's going to be taken?
You think someone already got that one?
Did you go away for some reason?

(02:09:51):
No, I'm here.
I'm waiting for you to find out.
Someone already has it.
Was it?
When did they do it?
Was it today?
I can't tell.
No, I don't think it was today.
No.
Oh, man.
We'll come up with an alternate that works.
Yeah, because we need a name like the
Oscars.
It has to be, you know, like the
Dummies.
Maybe we call it the Dummies.
I don't want to call it the Dummies.

(02:10:12):
No, of course not.
Hey, guess what?
Newsflash.
It's never going to happen.
Because you know it's going to happen.
This is going to be it.
Never going to happen.
I can feel it.
If you don't get it going now, it's
never going to happen.
The A.I. Music Awards.
Nothing will happen.
Your host.
Your host.
This is perfect, actually, because you've been expunged

(02:10:33):
from the annals of MTV.
Yes.
For some reasons unknown to everybody except you.
Because you're smart enough to have signed up
for MTV.com or something like that.
You got irked about it.
Whatever it was.
They didn't like that.
And then they sued me and I counter
sued them.

(02:10:54):
And then we settled.
And then you were expunged.
And I'm expunged.
I'm done.
I'm out.
Get out.
I'm Emeritus.
VJ Emeritus.
A bunch of free musical shows where they
had a lot of Satanism going on.
That was dynamite.
Good times.
You're missing out on that.
Good times.
Yeah.
We should have a Satan Award, too.

(02:11:15):
And a Jesus Award.
Most satanic AI song.
Most of them.
So our artists are always there trying to
give us something that looks cool, funky, funny,
interesting, grabs attention.
Or as my lovely wife, Tina, would say,
oh, oh, one of those again.

(02:11:36):
Like what?
Because of the one we just did?
Yeah.
That you picked?
I did pick it.
I said it was the best one.
I thought it was good.
I always get blamed for picking the cheesecake.
But no, no.
This time I wasn't even for this one.
I don't know if I admitted it was
me.
You weren't for it.
Yes, you were.
You said, OK.
I did say OK after a while because

(02:11:58):
all the other stuff was like you had
an argument.
It was horrible.
Everything except this piece.
Oh, OK.
So Darren O'Neill did the cheesecake.
But what I liked was the USG wants
you because that was relevant to the show.
Right.
And she looked like an American government issue.
Yeah.
It looks a bit like my wife.
You didn't bring that up.
She looks a bit like Tina, actually.

(02:12:20):
Oh, that's what it was.
Yeah.
You said it looked like Tina.
So you wanted to put Tina on the
cover.
And that's right.
Thank you for remembering.
That's a good that's a good excuse that
you just dreamed up to keep Tina off
your back.
Good one.
It's a good bit.
But now that I'm looking at it, I'm
like, oh, it does look a bit like
Tina.
So that was Darren O'Neill's entry.
There were other entries which we discussed and

(02:12:41):
we're going to look at them right now.
I would say a tip of the hat
for the climate protection from Capitalist Agenda.
But it was all way too small.
But he did a lot of really.
I mean, so it was a condom wrapper.
And it had climate protection, no agenda, extra
large, of course.
Curry Dvorak.
Actually, that was your first pick.

(02:13:02):
Yes.
Because I had warming sensation.
What was my comment?
Too small.
Too small.
No, it wasn't.
Couldn't read anything on there.
I know.
But when you when you embiggen it, there's
good.
There's funny stuff in there.
It was humor.
Then you wanted to also continue to scold,
scare a manga.
You wanted Bill's you wanted Bill's kink room.

(02:13:22):
What?
Yeah.
The one with the cat and the and
the young girl and then the torture bed
with a drill and all kinds of stuff.
That's what you were looking at.
I'm like, what's wrong with you?
Bill's kink.
Yeah.
I don't know.
You're making that up.
No, I'm not.
I liked Nick the rat's duty button.

(02:13:42):
Yeah.
You thought I was too busy.
Yeah, it was very.
I think I actually use that.
And I also like the peanut gallery from
Darren O'Neill, but you didn't like that
at all.
His two AI.
Yeah.
I actually know we ended up having to
pick this one because it was relevant.
You know, you you were jacked up about
it and I didn't see anything really wrong
with it.
I actually use the duty button for the

(02:14:04):
bat signals.
They and yeah, you like to get hopped
up by Ness works.
Which we were both like, yeah, it was.
I don't know.
And then there was a lot to choose
from.
There was that.
But all this stuff, luminance has gone down
by 20 percent.
Oh, unbelievable.
You pay now by digital to one one
man.
Yeah.

(02:14:24):
Which is the the joke that we use
on the show.
It's all just mud.
It's mud, man.
I mean, there's another one that I saw.
Yeah, there's one down for a JIP misspelled
JIP.
Yeah.
From again, digital to one one.
He should he should reset his system.
Another mud, which is mud is all brown.

(02:14:48):
I'm telling you, it's no good.
No, these Darren has got his reset because
even though the USG one shoe piece, the
white background is not white.
No, it's not.
It's kind of a pinkish.
So thank you to all of our artists
for a diligently prompting away.
And sorry, I'm not going to let it

(02:15:10):
destroy the end of show mixes, but it
will be an exit strategy for us with
the music awards hosted by Adam Curry and
John C.
Dvorak.
Now, here's your host, Nick, the rat.
So we want to thank our producers.
This is the treasure portion of the time,
talent and treasure.

(02:15:31):
And the idea is.
We thank everybody.
Fifty dollars and above.
But if you support us, which is just
so appreciated with two hundred dollars or more,
we will give you a title and a
real Hollywood title because we can do that.
And they are recognized and legit because you
can go to IMDB dot com and use

(02:15:51):
them.
And you can put it anywhere you want.
Call yourself an associate executive producer, the No
Agenda show.
And we'll read your note.
Now, the notes are way too long.
So we're going to have to cut these
down on the fly.
Three hundred dollars or above.
You become an executive producer for the episode
and we will read your note as well.
And so we have our old friend back

(02:16:14):
at the top with twenty six oh six.
And that is the correct number.
We know it's code for something.
Something's getting blowed up somewhere.
Seronomous of Dogpatch and Lower Slobovia.
And he sent a note from Seronomous of
Dogpatch and Lower Slobovia.
John's favorite type of donation letter.
Horizontal line.

(02:16:34):
Horizontal line.
No jingles, no karma in closing Muslim funds
to offset the Jewish shortfall.
I I have to say this Muslim money,
Muslim money.
He sent one bill.
A bunch of one dinar, two dinar bills

(02:16:54):
from Oman, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait.
Oh, that's cool.
He said actual Muslim money, Kuwait, Dubai.
He has like a pile of about seven
bills from all the Arab states.
Did he have one from Oman?
I'm pretty sure there's an Omani bill in

(02:17:15):
there.
Yeah, he might be a negotiator.
He might be.
All I know is that you don't get
these bills unless you go there.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So he's and they're used.
It's not like a bunch of new money.
I mean, it would have been nicer if
they were better quality bills like his hundred,
his hundoes.
Most of them are brand new, right from

(02:17:36):
the from the U.S. government, right from
the Fed, right from the pallet and right
off the pallet.
Right off.
That's where the pallet money went.
I got it.
Either that or Saddam Hussein's piles that were
found by the army.
I love that.
So we don't know where this is coming
from.
But but I got a kick out of

(02:17:57):
all these bills and I never seen a
lot of these because I've been to the
Middle East, but I haven't been to every
country in the Middle East.
I've never actually been in Saudi Arabia.
So I thought that was cute.
Nice, nice, real Muslim money.
Nice touch.
Thank you very much, sir.
Dogpatch and lower Slobovia, one of our biggest,

(02:18:18):
longest standing patrons.
And we appreciate you very much for that.
OK, oh, I'm sorry.
Oh, I hate to tell you to pass
this off.
Why do you need to fix your stuff?
I don't need to fix anything.
I love doing this.
I love my truck and I love what
I do.
I can make it work.

(02:18:39):
It's from from clear oaky.
I just had to click on these boxes
in Bakersfield.
And he came in a base field, California,
and he came in with an even thousand
bucks.
OK, he writes, my company has been working
on the California HS, a high speed rail
in the Central Valley since since around twenty

(02:18:59):
six, twenty six.
How long does it take?
And it was already going since 2009, wasn't
it?
This is a scam of scams.
Yeah.
When we did the meetup years ago, almost
10 years ago in Sacramento.
There was a high speed rail guy there.
And he says the whole thing is just
based on who who can buy the property

(02:19:20):
ahead of where they're going to put the
tracks.
And then they scam the state.
Sure.
The whole thing is a domain.
All of that.
I don't think the project is feasible in
general, he writes.
And the way they are managing the construction
is preposterous.
I vote against the project every time I
get the chance when the project comes up
in a conversation.

(02:19:41):
The other person usually says, wow, are they
still working on that?
Of course, I just did.
And they ask how I could be part
of it, to which I respond.
If my company doesn't work on it, a
company from L.A. or San Francisco will
come in, steal my employees and work on
it anyway.
So I just take the money and keep
it local.
Wow.
However.

(02:20:02):
It looks like the gravy train may have
been derailed, puns intended with the audit by
the U.S. D.O.T. A notice
from U.S. D.O.T., Department of
Transportation, the California High Speed Rail Authority, CHSRA,
for you out there following the acronyms, dated
to 2025, recent, that CHSRA must proceed at

(02:20:27):
its own risk because if a violation of
the DOT-CHISRA agreement is found during the
audit, cost reimbursement will be retroactive.
In other words, you're going to have to
return the money, even if you spent it.
The project is routinely four to six months
behind on their payments to us, to a

(02:20:49):
subcontractor.
So I'm going to be making some calls
to our prime and probably our local state
representative to see if my company may be
left holding the bag for six months of
payroll if the plug is pulled.
Oh, no.
This could come up as a piece of
leverage in the brewing Trump-Newsom rivalry.
Well, that's the more you know right there.

(02:21:11):
And then he has a couple of newspaper
articles that they link to, which I didn't
read.
And then the last line you're going to
have, he says, link to the audit and
correspondency page 305, blah, blah, blah.
And there may be something after that, but
that I can't get to.
No, I can get to it.
I can get to it.

(02:21:31):
That's it.
He just has another link.
And he says, if you'd like more on
this, I'm happy to provide.
Train's good.
Plane's bad.
Clear, Okie.
Oh, my God.
Listen to that horn.
By the way, I was talking to a
guy this morning who was an electrical contractor,
you know, and I say, hey, how's business?

(02:21:52):
He says, he's dead, Jim.
He says, nothing is being built in Fredericksburg,
which is kind of crazy.
He says all the all the big electrical
contractors, they're laying people off left and right
and Boot Ranch.
Now, Boot Ranch is about 15 minutes away.
That's where that's where the real mega homes

(02:22:16):
are.
There's 18 homes for sale between five and
twelve million dollars.
So no one's building out there either.
Something is up.
I said, what's going on?
I don't know.
Says the banks won't lend the commercial, no
more commercial loans.
That was he said, that's part of it.
I don't know what that means.

(02:22:37):
It doesn't sound good.
Yeah, a little bit of tip.
You give that to Horowitz so you can
buy some calls.
We go to Eric Tolbert.
Or Putz.
Putz, maybe.
He's in Topeka, Kansas.
One thousand dollars.
Hello, gentlemen.
Please find and close my donation of one

(02:22:58):
thousand dollars to cover my Ph.D. in
media deconstruction, my instant night and my executive
producer credit for so 1775 on Sunday, June
22nd.
Please also include me on the birthday list.
My birthday is June 21st, 1963.
My Ph.D. will be in the name
of Eric James Tolbert.
My birthday is June 21st.
Please bestow the name Sir Not Appearing in

(02:23:20):
this film for my knighthood.
For jingles.
I'm sorry, I missed that.
I would like an Al Sharpton.
And he says my favorite is Resist We
Much.
Well, we can obviously do that for you.
And please acknowledge my better half Dame Bessie.
The T is silent, if possible.
Her name is often mistaken for Betsy, hence

(02:23:42):
the joke.
We realize at her daming that in print
it wasn't as funny, although you take the
T out of the front and back of
our name was hilarious.
OK, did we do that?
Probably.
Thank you for all you do.
He says, Eric, and he also wants an
F karma.
So we will do that for you.
And we'll see you later on at the
night and Dame Roundtable.
Resist We Much.

(02:24:04):
We must and we will much about that
be committed.
You've got karma.
Huh, Archduchess Kim Keeper of the Nutty Fluffers

(02:24:24):
Parts Unknown came with five hundred bucks and
she wrote a note.
That is a little piece of paper you
can hear.
I can hear ITM, Adam and John Jingle.
Screw your freedom, little girl.
Yay.
And F-22 karma switcheroo.
It says such a rue.
But I think she means switcheroo.
For my dad, Knight John, protector of the

(02:24:47):
pocket protectors and keeper of his 15 grandchildren.
Wow.
Happy birthday and Father's Day, Dad.
You are amazing.
What do you get a dad that has
everything?
You get him a producer credit on the
best podcast in the universe.
Now you're talking.
Thank you for all that you have done
for us.
Love you, Dad.
You're a good daughter.

(02:25:08):
You're not the good daughter.
It's the good one.
Archduchess Kim Keeper of the Nutty Fluffers.
Screw your freedom.
You've got karma.

(02:25:29):
And very nice signature, by the way.
She's very nice handwriting, too.
Although it wasn't handwritten.
It was just signature.
Coucho Woodworking comes in with $350.93 from
Redondo Beach, California.
Thank you for your courage.
I hope John received my premium banquet board.
Yes.

(02:25:50):
Yes, I got it.
It's dynamite.
A premium banquet board.
How big is the banquet board?
It's not that really that big.
It's not like unless I'm mistaken.
It's about two and a half feet by
two and a half feet.
Something like that.
Well, that's a good size.
You can put some cheese on there.
The correct website is couchowoodandcraft.com.

(02:26:15):
couchowoodandcraft.com.
Ah, it was a corrective donation.
Yes, and thank you very much.
I said couchowoodworking, I think is what I
said.
And thank you very much, couchowoodworking.
Oh, here's the note I was talking about.
You need to read this.
You want to read it?
Nope.
That's from Dame Kicking and Screaming.
Parts unknown.

(02:26:36):
Don't know where she's from.
The very top of this note seems to...
Oh, there it is.
Okay, popped it open.
Ugh, God.
Dear...
Oh, this is so long.
Well, you can get through it.
Dear Adam and John, here's a donation made
from my dirty drug dollars in order to
cleanse the possible curse on the money.

(02:26:57):
Oh, nice.
Oh, that's good.
Yeah.
On a road trip as a mule from
South Mexico to Waco, Texas last week, I
was inspected by U.S. Customs while waiting
for them to go through the cargo, mainly
personal stuff and some used chiropractic heavy devices.
I saw the sniffer dog coming out.

(02:27:18):
I was sure he was going to be
done in two minutes, not finding anything.
To my surprise, he sat down, which is
what they do.
And before I knew it was happening, I
heard the dreaded, Ma'am, can you turn
around and put your hands on your back?
Wow.
Followed by the distinct click, click of handcuffs.

(02:27:41):
I was detained and strip searched in a
cell soon after.
In shock, I was wondering who was going
to feed my cat for the next 20
years.
By the way, the dog's...
Sometime later, a customs guy came in with
a wad of money and asked, What is
this?
Not to be smart, but generally answering honestly.

(02:28:02):
Uh, money?
That was not received well.
A supervisor had joined and triumphantly smirked.
We found the money.
Now it's a matter of time before we
find the drugs.
Unquote.
I died right there.
And then the Mooney was the Mooney.

(02:28:23):
The money was counted.
And as I assessed before, it was less
than $10,000.
He wanted to give it to me, but
I refused for fear of accepting responsibility for
other things they would find.
According to the supervisor, it was already too
late.
Everything found in the car was my responsibility.
The car is owned by an 80-year
-old American chiropractor living in Mexico.

(02:28:44):
He bought the Ford Transit secondhand.
A few years later, I was uncuffed.
A few hours, a few years.
A few hours later, I was uncuffed and
led through a hallway when one officer turned
around, handed me my shoelaces back and mumbled,
you're released.
My knees buckled from relief.
I was still clear enough to ask what

(02:29:06):
would happen with the money.
They couldn't confiscate it, they said.
So I asked for it.
They handed me the money and I was
now brought back to my car that had
exploded by the looks of it.
They just basically tore it apart.
Everything was unpacked outside and strewn around, only
for me to put back.

(02:29:28):
Every panel was open and it was a
mess.
No explanation was given, you know, just to
stop to know for a second.
The dog lied.
Well, the dog, this is a car in
Mexico, it was a used car.
Ford Transit, hello.
Somebody had used the car for drug transit

(02:29:48):
and just some random dust was left, which
the dog spotted and did his job.
Yeah, that makes nothing but sense.
No explanation was given about the whole situation.
No report, no rapport, no human interaction.
In order to clean the karma mat that
might be on the dirty drugs dollars, I

(02:30:09):
decided to donate a big portion of it
to various people.
No agenda was on the top of my
list.
I had to keep it short, keep it
short.
But so many things happened.
Sorry, John.
Sad smiley face.
Thank you for your courage in four more
years.
Dame kicking and screaming.
Thank you for keeping it short.
Well, that's a good story.

(02:30:31):
That's a good story.
Yes, and it ended well.
And thank you for sharing that dirty drug
money with us.
Tom Animas is in Emmaus in Pennsylvania, and
he donated, probably just let us know it's
pronounced Emmaus.
We said Emmaus, Emmaus, Emmaus, Emmaus, Emmaus, Emmaus,
Emmaus, Emmaus, Emmaus, Emmaus, Emmaus.
Emmaus, yes, 31533.

(02:30:52):
Big thanks to all the No Agenda producers.
Even bigger thanks to Adam and John for
making the best podcast in the universe, stronger
than ever.
Dvorak is right.
But first, a douchebag, douchebag call out for
Greg the Welder.
He knows who he is.
But Dvorak is right.
Rotten Tomatoes has been corrupted and has been
a no good movie raider for years now.

(02:31:13):
They pay critics to juice scores.
You have to wait two months to see
where a movie really lands, which makes it
useless.
And they've destroyed decent, honest movie reviews like
we had back in the day.
It's a psyop.
Fortunately, there's a value for value option out
there.
So if you'd like considerate, thoughtful movie reviews,
check out the Daily Ratings podcast.
It's a podcast.

(02:31:34):
Or stop by the DailyRatings.com to see
the 2000 movie reviews and counting.
You may not always agree with us, but
we're pretty consistent since all the scores come
from one guy, Vincent Daly, hence the name
Daily Ratings.
We have even have a couple of great
scores for Dana, creator of the tip of
the day, Brunetti.

(02:31:55):
Love and light and best price, says Tom
Onimus.
Thank you, Tom.
It's definitely a tip.
Sir Christopher in Elrod, Alabama, 233.99. Switcheroo!
I dedicate this row of ducks plus fees.
So 233.99, okay.
The row of ducks, really.

(02:32:15):
To Kim, another Kim with no last name.
Was this from the last show?
No, it seems the same, but I don't
think it is because...
No, you're right, because it's his wife.
It's his wife.
The other Kim was just some rando Kim.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, this is for Kim, his wife.
So it's Kim Christopher, I am assuming.

(02:32:37):
Christopher could be the first name.
Nevermind, just use Kim.
I'm just using Kim.
I don't want to get in trouble.
June 23rd, a nice medley of Sharpton, if
you don't mind.
Thank you, Sir Christopher Knight of the Sipsi
Valley.
Tonight is the measure of whether the country
begins in the state of Wisconsin, a national
drive to push back, or whether we have

(02:33:01):
more to go to build a movement of
resistance.
But resist.
Oh, here we go.
I didn't even know that was...
We must, and we will much about that
be committed.
Beautiful, Al.
Joining me now...
There you go, for Kim.
Noted.
Anonymous is in...

(02:33:26):
Apparently.
Rove Ducks from Anonymous, 222.22. Thank you
very much.
Associate Executive Producership for Anonymous.
Nice.
Well, you also have 222.22 from Sir
PBR.
Street Gang.
Street Gang.
ITM John and Adam, please find the enclosed

(02:33:46):
check for 222.22. Thank you for your
courage.
My wife Dame Trinity reminded me that we
sponsor a local Christian radio station for her
birthday, and it's listener-supported, and they run
no advertisements, and neither does no agenda.
So please add Dame Trinity to the birthday
list.
I'm not, you know...
I'll double-check, but I think...

(02:34:07):
Double-check to the birthday list for June
28th.
We both pray for John's return to the
Catholic Church, and for Adam's continued walk with
Jesus.
Amen.
Jingles boogity boogity, which is a jingle I
don't like.
That's true.
Signed Sir PBR.

(02:34:28):
Pabst Blue Ribbon, by the way, that's what
it stands for, which is odd.
That's true.
Anyway, Sir PBR Street Gang, which I don't
get either.
I didn't know you didn't like the boogity
jingle.
You've never mentioned that before.
No, at the very beginning when we started
playing it, we banned it.
We did?

(02:34:49):
Oh, brother.
That's true.
I have no problem with it.
I have no problem.
I tried it to be muddy.
Yeah.
And silly.
Okay.
Ryan George in Yorkville, Illinois, $2.10 and
60 cents.

(02:35:10):
Sir Pew Pew Ding Ding.
It's been a while since donating, but I
could use some help with bringing a child
into the country.
My in-laws have lived in Thailand for
30 years, adopted a boy, and are getting
the runaround.
Ah, email me and I will send you
the details of my most excellent immigration lawyer,
who is extremely good at this.

(02:35:32):
So I'd be happy to help you out.
Can I get a Scott Simon?
Love y'all.
Suffer and succotash.
I'm Scott Simon.
I love that one.
Mitchell, the tint guy in Dallas, Texas.
A new one.

(02:35:52):
The tint guy.
The tint guy.
The footage out of California feels like a
rerun from 2020.
Peaceful protests up front, but behind the sheep
with the signs and megaphones, it's looters and
backpacks and bricks.
And the common demonstrator, the common denominator in

(02:36:13):
every clip, which is the looters enter through
the gate, glasses, the weak link.
At Coolview of McKinney, Texas, we install retrofit
security systems that hold glass together under assault,
giving your home or business a fighting chance.

(02:36:34):
Check us out at, which reminds me of
a story I'll mention.
Check us out at coolview.com.
McKinney mentioned no agenda and get 20%
off professionally installed window film or security film.
ITM, Mitchell, the tint guy.
So interesting.
So I, when I was at COOLVU, coolview

(02:36:55):
.com.
So I'm, I was up in Seattle once
and I was at an architect's office for
getting a barbecue set designed or something.
Some guy who's a fan of mine.
And, and I was, and he just so
happened to be working on the Bill Gates
house at the time, which was on the

(02:37:16):
water on Lake Washington.
And he said they had to, oh, there's
a, it's like a big front, a bunch
of glass windows and huge windows.
And he said they had to replace him
with, he had to replace all the windows
of the Gates mansion with bulletproof glass because
fishermen and other jokers would be just cruising

(02:37:38):
down the river and they say, hey, that's
Bill Gates house.
And they take pot shots at it.
Yeah.
The whole, the house is riveted with bullets.
Wow.
And they brush the glass and they zoom
off on their boat.
Oh man.
Yeah.
That's wild.
An untold story.
Um, I actually, bonus clip, bonus clip.

(02:38:01):
Since we, uh, we had Mitchell, the tint
guy from Dallas, Texas talking about, uh, the
protest.
I thought what JD Vance did in Los
Angeles was hilarious.
Did you follow that at all?
When he, uh, when he spoke about, uh,
Padilla.
About Jose.
Yeah.
And the reason I'm here is I just

(02:38:21):
wanted to hear from the law enforcement officials
themselves, the state officials, the local officials, but
also the federal officials, what's actually going on
here on the ground.
I think there's some good news.
And the good news is the rioting has
gotten a lot better.
Uh, but the bad news is, as I
heard from everybody, unfortunately, the soldiers and Marines
are still a very much a necessary part
of what's going on here because they're worried

(02:38:43):
that it's going to flare back up.
Well, I was hoping Jose Padilla would be
here to ask a question.
Uh, but unfortunately, I guess he decided not
to show up because there wasn't the theater.
And so that was, I mean, he said
there wasn't a theater that was going to
be his big punch line.
So I can only presume that he really
did think the guy's name is Jose Padilla.
What is his real first name?

(02:39:04):
Alex.
And so this was the retort from LA
mayor, Karen Bass.
Mr. Vice president.
How dare you?
How dare you?
You don't know his name, but yet you
served with him before you were vice president
and you continue to serve with him today.

(02:39:25):
Because the last time I checked the vice
president of the United States is the president
of the US Senate.
You serve with him today.
And how dare you disrespect him?
And call him Jose.
But I guess he just looked like anybody
to you.
Well, he's not just anybody to us.
He is our Senator.

(02:39:45):
An arrogant woman.
That's hilarious.
You be like a Jose.
AI version.
You know, the AI version of Vance going
off?
No, I didn't.
I didn't.
I should have clipped it.
It was, in fact, I would have, but
I didn't.
Yeah.
He says, I don't know if you call
him Jose or Rodrigo.
And he goes on and on with a
bunch of these diminutive names.

(02:40:08):
It's still full of crap.
You know, he goes on.
Oh, man.
Linda Lupatkin winds us out as our final

Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.
Let's vote for jobs.
Well, there you go.
Our executive and associate executive producers.

(02:40:50):
It gets real short after that, which is
interesting.
That's because it all got cut off at
3.15. Maybe we got bounced, man.
Maybe PayPal jacked us.
Have you tried donating?
Well, a number of people that normally come
in late didn't come in at all.
You know, the system could have been down.

(02:41:12):
There could have been a million reasons for
this.
Well, I hope that's it.
You never know.
We've gotten donations since, so.
Oh, okay.
Well, then good.
So at least.
I think.
That would really suck, John.
That would really suck.
That would suck some big time.
Thank you to these executive and associate executive

(02:41:33):
producers.
We got PhDs to celebrate later.
We have one night, one day.
We're very, very appreciative of the value you
have returned, particularly these bigger donors.
But we love everybody who supports us, no
matter what it is, no matter what amount.
You can make that up yourself by going
to noagendadonations.com.
You can even set up a recurring donation
where you can do any amount and any

(02:41:54):
frequency you want.
Please do that.
Support your no agenda show.
And again, thank you to these executive and
associate executive producers.
Our formula is this.
We go out.
We hit people in the mouth.

(02:42:19):
You know that I'm looking.
Yeah, the donations are back on track.
The that may account for this weird.
I got a call from Jay this morning.
This is weird.
Note came in from Tom Blowers in Brownsville
and about his, you know, his donation for

(02:42:40):
my key.
I'll read the note because you're going to
have to read it in the next segment.
I'll read it now.
OK, this donation is from my keeper, Shelley
Switcheroo.
Also, I'd like to commemorate to our son
Colby, who is the one who hit us
in the mouth, as mentioned the show back
in early twenty, twenty three.
Not sure.
But the episode Colby on six, nineteen, twenty
three succumb to his demons.
And unfortunately, not with us anymore.

(02:43:00):
I'm sorry.
So miss.
So my message here is that someone out
there needs help.
Please contact the suicide hotline.
Oh, you're not alone.
You're loved and are important to everybody.
We, however, continue to be great fans of
the best podcast in the universe.
Help us maintain our sanity while traveling the
great country with this donation.
Shelley becomes a day.
Now, this is going to get bumped to

(02:43:21):
Thursday.
OK, because the donation, I think I got
caught up.
No, no, no, no.
I think I have that one.
I have.
Yeah, I have, Shelly.
Yes.
Oh, yeah.
She's on the list.
Yep.
She's on the list.
OK.
Jay put her on the list then.
Yeah, but she we have to be careful.
But this donation, I'm pretty sure.
And I would say gigawatt coffee, too, because

(02:43:41):
he always is the late, always the last
donation got bumped through that.
Whatever happened.
I don't know what it was.
A glitch.
They come through eventually.
It was a glitch.
Yes, exactly.
It was a glitch, which obviously a glitch.
Hey, I have some underreported news, which I
thought to be quite interesting.

(02:44:02):
And here it is.
The Democratic Republic of the Congo and Rwanda
are set to sign a peace agreement.
The deal was brokered by the United States
and is set to be signed on the
27th of June.
The provisional agreement announced by the U.S.
State Department covers issues including disarmament, the integration
of non-state armed groups and the return
of refugees and internally displaced people in eastern

(02:44:24):
DRC.
Eastern DRC has been gripped by a violent
conflict spanning back decades.
Several armed groups are competing for access to
precious natural resources, including gold, copper, cobalt and
lithium.
Congo has accused its neighbor, Rwanda, of backing
one of the largest groups in the conflict,
known as the M23.
The U.N. estimates that 4,000 of

(02:44:45):
the group's fighters are troops from Rwanda, though
Kigali has strongly rejected those allegations.
M23 is one of approximately 100 armed groups
involved in the conflict vying for control in
the region.
Congo and Rwanda are not formally at war
and in the past have held peace talks
aimed at resolving disputes in eastern DRC.
Angola stepped down in March as mediator between

(02:45:06):
the two countries after several attempts at brokering
peace.
Other nations, like Qatar, also attempted to mediate
the conflict in the past with no success.

(02:45:40):
Because the way I saw it, it's like,
okay, so we kick China out because clearly
China was in there for the cobalt and
the gold and the minerals and all that
stuff.
And then this comes across the transom.
A regulatory agency announced Saturday that the Democratic
Republic of Congo has extended its ban on
cobalt exports for three more months, a measure

(02:46:02):
aimed at curbing oversupply of the key material
for electric vehicle batteries.
The world's largest supplier of cobalt, the country
had imposed a four-month export ban in
February after price hit a nine-year low
of just $10 per pound.
The ban was originally set to end this
Sunday.
The regulatory body plans to announce a further

(02:46:23):
decision to modify, extend or lift the suspension
before the end of this new three-month
period, which will conclude in September.
Reuters reported on Friday that Congolese authorities were
considering extending the ban as they review the
allocation of cobalt export quotas among mining companies.
Several industry players, including Glencoe, the world's second

(02:46:46):
largest cobalt producer, support a proposal to introduce
these quotas.
So here's how I'm thinking the deal went.
All right, listen, guys, we're going to broker
a peace deal here.
We'll make sure that no more fighting breaks
out.
But you know what?
We're going to make you guys a little
richer.
So why don't you extend that ban on

(02:47:07):
exports to China?
I think this is a China play.
Like, you know, don't give them any coal.
I do too.
But it's funny that every analysis you've had
for the last couple of months is China,
China, China.
Yeah, China, China, China, China, China.

(02:47:31):
OK, this I picked up on.
What is it?
It's on NTD, actually.
British thought leaders.
You have a great show.
That's a very good show.
You have America.
One of the best interviews.
I try to clip it once in a
while, but it's very hard.
It's a long story.

(02:47:52):
It's hard to clip for some reason.
Well, the problem is it's not.
You know, I clip my NTD stuff from
the computer and from the Internet feeds because
I can't get it on TV.
I mean, I get it on TV, but
it's on over the air.
They don't have it on the Google.
And so I can't record anything.
So I have to scrounge around to get.
Find it.

(02:48:13):
So they had on British journalist Lewis Brackpool.
And the reason I clip this is because
of East Enders.
East Enders is a daily soap that has
been running in the UK for, I think,
50 years.
Been running forever.
And when I lived there, we lived there
for five years.
I got into it, you know, and it's

(02:48:34):
just, you know, it's funny.
British culture.
And I got into a general hospital or
days of, I think, days of our lives
sometime in the 70s.
When I was working a swing shift or
something, I could watch daytime TV.
I watched it a couple of times.
And the next thing you know, for months
on end, I was watching this stupid show.
And you were rooting for Susan Lucci to

(02:48:55):
finally win the Emmy.
Well, Susan Lucci, which show was she on?
I can't remember.
Was she on Another World, maybe?
Oh, I don't know.
There's about five of these things.
And they were actually pretty well structured.
So here's what he did.
He came across, I guess someone mentioned it
to him.
And well, he did some journalistic work.

(02:49:15):
Here's the setup.
I put in a request to the Department
of Culture, Media and Sport to ask whether
the government from 2020 to now, to present,
was involved in any collaborations with the government
and TV companies, producers, scriptwriters that may embed

(02:49:39):
government messaging through fictional television programs.
And this was off the back of a
conversation again with a friend.
And he, I don't know why, he watches
EastEnders.
It's not my cup of tea.
But, you know, a lot of people do
watch it.
Millions watch it across the country.
So I'm not judging.
He was watching it.
And during one of the storylines, one of

(02:50:01):
the characters mentioned climate intervention and specifically geoengineering,
which was bizarre for an EastEnders storyline.
Like it was very, you know, sore thumb.
And we were talking about it.
And I said, oh, do you know that
there's a lot of evidence to show that
the government are involved in scriptwriting for fictional

(02:50:22):
television programs because it's broadcast to millions of
people across the UK?
And he said, well, that wouldn't surprise me.
I went to check articles to back up
what I was saying, and I couldn't find
any.
So I thought, OK, this is a perfect
time to put in the request.
And here's the response he got back from
the government.
And their response, they've delayed my request for

(02:50:44):
another 20 working days because they've cited an
exemption, which basically says it could affect the
public affairs, meaning disclosure of this information could
affect their messaging, number one.
It could affect media backlash if they come

(02:51:08):
out and say, actually, yes, we do actually
hold this particular information, but certain things we
have to basically exempt from the public to
see in case the public are riled up
and upset about what is being pushed by
messaging.
So they have confirmed that they hold the
data.

(02:51:28):
There's no question about that.
It's a case of what and what particular
narratives are they pushing?
You know, we, of course, know that this
happens in the United States to the Norman
Lear Hollywood Foundation.
And I think it's a good idea.
People should be putting in freedom of information
requests to all of their European governments.
You should get into this.

(02:51:48):
Because I bet it's rampant everywhere.
It's probably the problem with doing that here
is that we use cutouts so well, like
the Lear Foundation.
I mean, if they're the ones that are
helping these script writers put crap into the
scripts that propagandize the public, you can send

(02:52:09):
a freedom of information act to anybody you
want.
You're not going to get anywhere because they're
all know what we've heard of them.
And the USAID sends them some money on
the side, but we don't know what they
use it for.
No, it's not going to work.
OK, good point.
But I mean, we do know it's not
like it's a big secret because the Lear

(02:52:30):
Foundation themselves come out and say it.
They do.
They used to.
I know Norman Lear's dead.
It's hard to say what.
Well, let's talk about the auto pen.
There was a funny guy that came out,
gave testimony before Congress, and it was recorded.
This guy's name is, I think I have
it on the on this clip name, Theodore

(02:52:51):
Wald.
He said when they put a group together
to investigate the use of the auto pen
in the Biden administration, I thought these two
clips were worthwhile.
Traditionally, the president takes positive actions and authenticates
those actions through his signature.
His signature is required for the most significant
actions he may undertake to sign an executive

(02:53:12):
order, to take any action invested in him
by the Constitution, as in granting a pardon,
and to take the most important action of
all, to sign a bill into law.
In all these cases, the president's signature is
itself the protection of democratic principle.
When the president signs, he communicates his assent
and endorsement of the action he takes.

(02:53:33):
The auto pen is a device that signs
the president's signature to a document.
The Oversight Project, of which I am a
board member, has discovered that the Biden White
House deployed an auto pen to affix President
Biden's signature to pardons, prison commutations, executive orders,
and presidential proclamations.
The Oversight Project's research has found that the

(02:53:55):
Biden White House first deployed the auto pen
to affix President Biden's signature to a proclamation
on day five of his administration.
And that there were at least three different
auto pen signatures in use throughout President Biden's
tenure in the White House.
In June 2022, the Biden White House began
deploying the auto pen to sign clemency warrants

(02:54:16):
and executive orders.
Auto pen use skyrocketed from there.
We found that of the 51 clemency warrants
issued during the Biden presidency, over half, 32
in total, were signed with an auto pen.
And these include some of the most controversial
acts of clemency of the Biden presidency, including
death row commutations, and the preemptive pardons of

(02:54:37):
members of the Biden family, Dr. Anthony Fauci,
General Mark Milley, and more that were issued
in the final days of the Biden presidency.
Finally, we found multiple days where President Biden
wet signed a bill into law, but used
an auto pen to issue an executive order
or for other important executive actions.
The Biden White House's widespread use of an
auto pen to affix President Biden's signatures to

(02:54:59):
documents that exercise executive powers belonging solely to
the president poses significant constitutional, legal, and practical
considerations.
Hmm.
These guys were the Claremont Institute?
Yeah, I think so.
What do they do?
Sounds like something.
Oh, they're a think tank.
Sounds like they're doing something for the president,
some work for the president here.

(02:55:20):
This is all body punches.
To soften everybody up for the fact they're
going to pull the plug on a lot
of stuff Biden did because they can prove
that Biden had nothing to do with it.
And they've got a lot of they're getting
documentation to show that maybe Biden didn't do
any of this.
Well, we're not.
We did something, but he didn't do everything.
Drooled, sadly.
He drooled a lot.

(02:55:41):
Yeah.
So here's the finish of this little testimony.
Once the president's signature is copied and loaded
into the auto pen, the machine can sign
documents as the president himself would.
To be blunt, by using the auto pen,
anyone can sign documents as the president himself.
Now, to be clear, I'm not here today

(02:56:01):
to suggest that the auto pen is bad.
It's just technology.
I'm here today because of questions concerning President
Biden's capacity and whether the auto pen was
used to usurp presidential power or to conceal
the president's decline.
As the sitting president's mental acuity declined, potentially
to the point of incapacitation, his administration's expansion

(02:56:22):
of the powers of the presidency raises more
questions than answers.
Any investigation into this matter should focus not
only on whether President Biden directed or authorized
subordinate staff to take action in certain instances,
but whether he had the capacity to do
so at all.
The 25th Amendment lays out clear procedures for
what to do when the president isn't capacitated.
It was carefully drafted and informed by our

(02:56:43):
nation's history.
The Biden administration ignored it all to aggrandize
executive power and push the country further in
their preferred ideological direction.
It is our obligation at this point to
get to the bottom of these issues and
ask the important question as to whether or
not the auto pen and other devices were
used to cover and obscure President Biden's mental

(02:57:05):
decline, undermining our national security and also the
Constitution.
Thank you for the opportunity to testify this
morning.
Hmm.
Yeah, yeah.
So can you, I guess the question is,
can you hold someone accountable, is that the

(02:57:28):
word I'm looking for, for not adhering to
the 25th Amendment?
Or is that something you just invoke?
I don't think they, I don't think they
have a prayer of doing anything like that.
But what they, I mean, that's an interesting
case.
But I think what they're going to try,
I think the best they're going to do
from all this is pull the plug on
a bunch of these pardons.

(02:57:50):
I think that's about as far as they're
going to be able to get.
Because they're, like you said, there's no evidence
that because they look in the record and
there's no evidence that Biden wanted to pardon
half of these people.
He never mentions it anywhere.
They mentioned specifically Fauci and Milley.
And that's the, that's the shot across the
bow right there.

(02:58:11):
Yeah, definitely.
Hey, did you, did I see you had
something?
Oh, by the way, nothing's going to come
of it.
No, of course not.
Put it in the Epstein file, Bing.
It's like, what's his name?
What's it?
Comer.
It's like James Comer's various investigations.
He talks a big game and nothing has
ever come of any of it.

(02:58:33):
Did you have an article, did you say
something not too long ago about China, like
the smuggling in fungus?
Was that a clip we had?
We talked about the fungus in the, I
think it was a couple of shows ago.
Yeah, someone bringing in.
Do we have a clip of that?
Someone was bringing in a fungus.
Someone got arrested.
Yeah, they're bringing in some horrible fungus.

(02:58:55):
Let me see.
That can kill wheat.
It's a wheat, it's really targeted.
It also makes people sick if you get
an infection with it, but it's.
Well, listen to this.
A lethal here, a lethal fungus that can
rot human tissue from within.
Oh, yeah, this one is spreading.
I think that's the same fungus, to be

(02:59:15):
honest about it.
It's spreading rapidly across the U.S. And
this is from the Daily Mail.
So take that with a grain of salt.
And experts warn the problem could worsen as
temperatures rise.
It's got a climate change, global climate change,
climate change component.
It can cause serious lung infection called aspergillosis,

(02:59:35):
which in vulnerable individuals can lead to organ
failure and death.
Those with weakened immune systems, they're susceptible, of
course.
Major cities like New York, Houston, Los Angeles
face added risk from dense populations and aging
infrastructure.
And so I'm thinking, I'm listening to that.

(02:59:56):
I'm thinking, oh, is this connected somehow?
The latest COVID variant is causing a distinctive
symptom, a sore throat so severe it's nicknamed
razor blade throat.
Some patients report a sharp, stabbing pain when
they swallow, often at the back of the
throat.
Because of that, the new variant is informally
being called Nimbus, a name that refers to

(03:00:18):
a jagged type of storm cloud.
Doctors in the UK are also seeing more
intestinal symptoms than with other variants.
The virus is spreading quickly in the US.
Nimbus went from single digits to 37%
of all new cases of COVID in less
than three weeks.
No, it's not.
I'm reading down this article further, and there
it is.

(03:00:38):
Climate change is making it easier for the
fungus to survive inside the human body as
global temperatures rise.
The human body doesn't change temperatures because of
climate change.
Of course not.
Your body temperature stays the same, or it
should.
Man.
Yeah, and it's actually lower.
So this is just historically.

(03:00:59):
This is another climate psyop then.
Okay, I should have known better.
I'm sorry.
All right, five-minute warning, John.
Five-minute warning.
Five-minute warning.
Oh, we got a few things here.
We're talking disease and- And death.
Disease and death, yes.
Death, disease, and something else.
Tick advice for the summer.

(03:01:19):
Bad year for tick bites.
Data from the CDC show people are seeking
emergency care at the highest rate since 2019.
So if you're planning a hike or a
trip to the park and want to avoid
these blood-sucking bugs, NPR's Peng Huang has
some tips to help you fend them off.
There are about a dozen different ticks in
the U.S. that can cause problems for
human health.

(03:01:39):
In the Northeast, Mid-Atlantic, and Upper Midwest,
the biggest problem is Lyme disease.
Thomas Hart is an infectious disease microbiologist at
Johns Hopkins University in Maryland.
He says Lyme disease is transmitted by infected
deer ticks.
You can encounter these ticks really at any
time of the year, but they're going to
be the most active in warmer months, and
they tend to live in a woody or

(03:02:00):
grassy area.
In the Central and Southeastern U.S., ehrlichiosis
and spotted fever rickettsiosis are top concerns, along
with a tick-induced allergy to red meat.
Tick bites are less common in the West,
but they also happen there and can spread
Lyme disease, anaplasmosis, and a few other things.
If all of this is making you itchy,
Alison Hinckley, an epidemiologist with CDC, says there

(03:02:23):
are precautions you can take.
You can wear insect-repellent-treated clothing.
We call that permethrin-treated clothing.
That's a really easy thing to do.
Cover up as much skin as possible and
check yourself daily.
Showering when you come in from outside really
has shown to be a good way to
prevent tick-borne diseases.
That's because the longer a tick feeds on
you, the higher the risk of infection.

(03:02:45):
So if you find a tick, take it
off right away.
The best way is to use tweezers, grab
it as close to the skin as you
can, and find out what type of tick
it is and how long it's been feeding
on you.
If it's a deer tick and you're in
an area where Lyme disease is common, Hinckley
says see a doctor.
The only time you would get an antibiotic
after a tick bite and before any symptoms,

(03:03:07):
it would be to prevent Lyme disease, and
in that case, we recommend just a single
dose.
Otherwise, watch for symptoms like fever, aches, and
rash.
If those show up, Hinckley says seek medical
care.
Hey, whatever happened to Alpha Gal?
Who?
Alpha Gal.
I don't know Alpha Gal.
Oh, yeah.
Yes, you do.

(03:03:28):
You dated her.
Alpha Gal was the meat allergy that people
would develop after getting bitten by the Texas
Lone Star tick.
Oh, they mentioned it in there.
I know, but whatever happened to that?
That was like a big thing, and people
were like, oh, I can't eat red meat,
and Alpha Gal in Texas, the Lone Star
tick.
Yeah, the Lone Star tick.

(03:03:48):
That was the name of it.
Yeah, what happened to that?
Just no one has that anymore?
Does that go away?
I don't think it has.
Well, we're going to New York next month.
I'll be doing the show from New York,
Tina's.
No, New York City.
New York City show.
We need a report of how the homeless
encampments are doing, and house things at the

(03:04:10):
Roosevelt Hotel.
You got a lot of work to do
if you're going to go to New York.
I'll be very, very busy.
We're going there for Tina's birthday.
We'll be celebrating with her youngest daughter, who
lives in New York.
And well, just imagine, I'm thinking we're going
there.
We're going to stay at the Roosevelt Hotel.
I'm not too sure about that.
Terminix released its annual ranking of the worst

(03:04:30):
cities for bedbugs.
Uh-oh.
Philadelphia holds the top spot for the second
year in a row.
Congratulations.
The city is followed by New York, Cleveland,
and Los Angeles.
Analysts say infestations are likely tied to...
Aliana can't even look at this.
I don't want to see it.
They're likely tied to climate, housing trends, and

(03:04:50):
travel costs.
People, they just bring them around.
Pest control experts suggest checking all furniture at
your hotel or rental unit to avoid bringing
any bugs back home with you.
I can't wait for Tina to hear the
show.
She'll be checking the furniture.
She'll be checking the cabinets, the closets, everything.
We don't want bedbugs.

(03:05:10):
That's gross.
It's gross, I tell you.
Bedbugs.
There was a couple of years during this
show era that, and it is an era
at this point, the No Agenda era, we
should note that.
I prefer to call it a season.
Well, it's more than a season, believe me.
So during the No Agenda era, there was,

(03:05:33):
if you remember, there was about a year's
worth of bedbug stories.
Sure.
Because that was the fear of the day.
Well, there were bedbugs in the theaters.
That's where it started, yes.
We had, let me see, 2020.
Bedbugs in the theaters.
Yeah, well, that happened in France.

(03:05:53):
The bedbugs were in the theaters.
And let me see, was this in 2020?
Coming up, it's a feeding frenzy on the
move.
Bedbugs are giving people nightmares.
Over the last 10 years, their population has
been exploding.
Tonight, we know why the insects are crawling
out of beds and into movie theaters, classrooms,

(03:06:14):
and more.
2020, yeah.
Yeah, that was all during the No Agenda
era.
Do you see now why we have boomer
benefits?
Do you understand?
Yeah, but besides our knowledge base, the two
of us combined is 100 years plus.
Easy.
It's the show archives itself are unbelievable.

(03:06:41):
What you just, right there within 20 seconds,
you found a bedbug clip exactly explaining what
the problem was, was just bedbugs in theaters.
And it came, what we forgot, of course,
is it came from France.
Yes.
Or I forgot that you remembered.
Yes.
So your point being?
People should think about what we just did

(03:07:02):
and say, you know, we should give these
guys at least five bucks or subscribers something.
I'm going to show my support by donating
to No Agenda.
Nailed it.
Imagine all the people who could do that.
They did.
Oh, yeah, that'd be fun.
Nailed it.
And we still have plenty of show to

(03:07:23):
come.
I have some actual real-world ISOs that
may be worth selecting for our end-of
-show ISO.
We have some dynamite, Iran, Iran end-of
-show mixes on the way.
John's tip of the day.
And of course, we have a night.
We have two dames.
I think we have some PhDs.
And the birthdays.
But first, John is going to thank our
very short list of donors that we still

(03:07:43):
want to thank, $50 and above.
Yeah, and I noticed that our dame in
the Sparks, Nevada is missing because I think
she, that was, again, the problem with PayPal.
Because she's been giving us money every show.
And we'll hear from her shortly.
Yeah, I'm sure.
So, we start with a Vienna donation from
the, of all places, Vienna, Austria.

(03:08:08):
From Balaza, Czecho, I think, Chesco, Chesco, something.
I don't know.
I'll never get that name.
It's not Austrian, I don't think.
106.41. Nice.
Thank you.

Waxomized in Bergenshoek, Holland.
Bergenshoek.
Hook, 84.38. Kevin McLaughlin got through the
filter.
He's there with 8008.
He's the Archduke of Luna, lover of America,

(03:09:14):
lover of boobs.
Probably because he's on an automatic.
No, he's not automatic, because he adds a
boost.
No, he's not.
Could you squeeze, because he's writing different notes
all the time, so he can't do that
with automatic.
And he's asked, could you squeeze the melon
mix by Sound Guy Steve into the end
of the show mix, please?
Melon mix.

(03:09:35):
Oh, okay.
Yeah, because he asked for it, and he
is the Archduke.
Yes, I will take that.
He gets what he wants.
He totally gets what he wants.
That dude's awesome.
Philip Colburn in Warimu, New South Wales, Australia.

No, no, these guys.

(03:10:16):
Wait a minute, 67.
We'll do this.
We'll do this.
As long as I get mentioned.

Michael Myers in Mandeville, Louisiana, 50 bucks.
I want to thank all these people for
making the show 1775.
We got 1776, the founding of the United
States of America show number on the next

(03:11:47):
show.
Big one.
Big show.
Big, big show.
Really big show.
And how about that being in our 250th
year, kind of?
Close.
Kind of close.
Yeah, well, kind of.
Close enough.
Well, we got a lot of 250s this
year.
A lot of different things happened 250 years
ago.
And we're just getting started, everybody.
Thank you so much to these producers, $50

(03:12:10):
and above.
We never mention anyone under 50 for reasons
of anonymity, but we appreciate those who do
so.
And of course, our sustaining donors, any amount,
any frequency, any donation that you want, actually,
because it's value for value.
The component of that is it's open.
The amount is open.
You do whatever you want.
Just send us back some value for the

(03:12:30):
value you feel that you receive from the

Both of them received PhDs in media deconstruction.
You can go to noagenderings.com.
Fill out all the information where we can
send this to.
It's a very handsome certificate.
It is beautiful for framing.

(03:13:35):
Don't just stick it on your wall, frame
it.
It'll make it look so official because it
is official.
An official PhD from your No Agenda show.
Then we have One Night and One Dame.
This is the note that you read earlier
from my keeper, Shelly.
And with this, they commemorate their son, Colby,
who was the one who hit them in
the mouth, as mentioned on the show back

(03:13:56):
in early 2023, who succumbed to his demons.
Unfortunately, he's no longer with them anymore.
So again, their message is anyone out there
needs help, please call the suicide hotline.
You are not alone.
You are loved and you are important to
everybody.
With this donation, Shelly becomes a Dame.
Please name her Dame Shelly, holder of the
CDL and Dog Mama.
She wants squeaky toys and tennis balls at

(03:14:17):
the round table.
Already ordered.
Therefore, you keep up the fantastic work.
And Colby's favorite was Noodle Boy.
Now we'll do, let me get the, the
Noodle Boy.
We have, uh, we don't have, we don't
have a jingle for Noodle Boy, do we?
We have the, the Noodle Gun is what
we have.
No, we have the Noodle Boy.
It's not a jingle.
It's the whole thing.
Right, right.
But I'll do a, a Noodle Gun because

(03:14:40):
that is about the, the Noodle Boy and
karma for all.
We'll do that right now, actually.
I'm gonna shoot you in the face with
my Noodle Gun, you racist piece of shit.
I got my pasta glock locked and loaded.
You've got karma.

(03:15:02):
And with that, let's draw our blades, Mr.
Dvorak.
Bring out the blade.
That one right here.
Very nice.
Okay, Shelly popping up here right on the

Both of you have completed everything you need

(03:16:06):
And thank you both for supporting the Noah
Jenner Show.
Noah Jenner Meetups!
Noah Jenner Meetups is being organized around the
globe.
That is where the producers get together, talk
about important affairs like stuff we talk about
on the show and their opinions and their
conspiracies and whatever else is happening.

(03:16:28):
Knights and dames show up to these.
It's a good old hootenanny.
You can find all of these listed at
noagendermeetups.com.
And we love it when people get together
because that connection gives protection.
And these are the first responders in an
emergency.
Here is a meetup report from Fort Wayne,
their June report.
Adam and John, this is Shannon reporting in
from Fort Wayne.
We tried a location.

(03:16:48):
We tried once before, but last time we
were here, Trump got his ear pierced.
But anyway.
Well, we got Ted and Ann from Cleveland,
Ohio.
Say hi, Ann.
Hi.
Meeting our friends at Fort Wayne for a
random vacation.
Yeah, baby.
This is Jared from Cool Hacks.

(03:17:08):

Thank you for your courage.
Hey, Joe Biden, what's that in your diaper?
We'll fix that in post.

What do you think, Rogue?
All right, here we are.

And I am here with the future Sir
Peption of the Doors.

And for some reason, Rogue is not overly
enjoyable to him.
But that would be it.
This is our no agenda meetup report.
Have yourself a good day.
All right.
Thank you very much.
We have a meetup taking place today at
the Elm City Brewing Company in Keene, New

Sometimes you wanna go hang out with all
the nights and days.
Bom, bom, bom.
You wanna be where you wanna be.
Triggered or hella lame.
You wanna be where everybody feels the same.
Baba-daba-daba-bom, bom, bom.

(03:19:54):
It's like, hi.
My ISO's won't.
What is that?
Unsupported file format.
that sucks.
I kind of like that ISO.
Hold on a second.
Do you have any ISOs for the...
There should be one in there, is there?
Yes, I do see one in here.
This is John's...
There's one.
Here's John's one ISO.

(03:20:14):
That was one bunker buster of a show.
Hmm, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I don't know.
Let me see.
I got a couple here.
What's this one?
Let me check this one out.
There is no exit strategy.
Hmm, I got that one.
I have...
Bye-bye.

(03:20:36):
No, okay.
Keep it a hundred, bro.
And we're sorry, citizen.
You violated the terms of our agreement here
in the office.
I don't even know where that comes from.
Sounds like me.
And this one I think is maybe useful.
Well, I'm sick and tired of smart guys.
Hmm?
Uh, it was Biden.

(03:20:57):
Yeah.
When he was...
Well, it's...
I think we've tried to...
I think you tried to slip that one
in once before.
Well, I'm sick and tired of smart guys.
Well, I kind of like it.
I mean, it's got...
I like the bunker buster because it wraps
the show around because it started with bunker
buster.
Yeah, well, it is AI, but then again,

(03:21:20):
so is everything.
I'm not even sure I'm talking to John
anymore.
It could just be...
You are talking to John.
All right.
You are talking to John.
You are not talking to AI.
Tip of the day time.

(03:21:42):
All right, I have a website to plug.
A website plug.
Yeah, we do website plugs in the rotation.
We do website plugs.
If anyone ever is going to buy a
digital camera, a used one in particular or
a new one, there's a website that...
Don't go to the computer magazines or online
stuff.
There's one website that all they do is

(03:22:03):
review digital photography stuff.
They review every camera that's ever come out.
You can go look at their old reviews
if you want to buy a used...
A lot of people...
Buying a used digital camera is not a
bad idea in today's world because they really
got to a very high peak five years
ago and they're still very useful, these cameras.
But which one would you get?

(03:22:24):
And then there's lenses and other things that
these guys review.
What?
Lenses?
Lenses?
There's different lenses?
I have five on my iPhone.
I don't need different lenses.
So this is for people who realize that
a camera is still better than a phone
for taking a photo.
But I mean, the phone does a great
job.
Is that true, though?

(03:22:45):
Is a camera better than a phone these
days?
Yeah.
Just look at the little dinky lens and
the whole...
Come on.
It's all...
And talk about AI.
The thing is processing the picture.
It's probably changing the color.
Oh, it's changing everything.
The whole thing is ridiculous.
That's why they're better.
People like the pictures because they're like, oh,
I look good in this.

(03:23:06):
Yeah.
That's the whole point.
DPreview.com.
DPreview.com.
Highly recommended website.
Yeah.
Be careful.
There's other DP websites out there.
You want to be kind of careful.
DPreview.com.
One word.
DPreview.com.
I'm just saying.

(03:23:34):
I only do it as a public service.
I want to help people.
I want to warn them for the perils.
The perils that could be out there.
Yes.
All right.
By request for the end of show mix,
we've added the Melon Mix from Soundguy Steve
for our Archduke of Luna and the Love

(03:23:54):
of America and Boobs.
Along with that comes James Trees.
That's the song you like.
The War in Iraq and a classic because
they're all classic because you can use them
every five years.
A medley from our very own Jesse Coy
Nelson.
That is coming up in our end of
show mixes.
Do stay tuned for that.
They're toe tappers, I tell you.

(03:24:15):
Real toe tappers.
Up next on the No Agenda stream, trollroom
.io, and if you just keep listening to
your modern podcast app, you will hear Podcasting
2.0, where we talk about, well, about
Spotify, getting on board, kind of, and other
things about the future of podcasting.
We'll be back on Thursday to bring you
more media deconstruction.

(03:24:36):
Until then, coming to you from the heart
of the Texas Hill Country, where not everybody's
happy with President Trump.
Fredericksburg, Texas.
In the morning, everybody.
I'm Adam Curry.
And from Northern Silicon Valley, where everybody's going
to noagendadonations.com today.
I'm John C.
Dvorak.
We will talk to you again on Thursday.
Until then, adios, slow foes.

(03:24:58):
Hooey, hooey.
And such.
I love melons.
Did you know there are over 40 different
types of melons out there?
Kevin McLaughlin in Concord, North Carolina, says honey
do melons.
He just wrote that in there for some
reason.
He likes melons.
Golden Delicious Melons.
The Galea Melon.
Horned Melons.

(03:25:18):
The only melons that are there in the
world.
There are over 40 different types of melons.
Summertime is the perfect time to show off
your melons, ladies.
Honey Globe Melons.
Honey Globe Melons, Chase.
Camouflage Melons.
Shoppers in Aisle 3, Camouflage Melons.
Jade Dew Melon Donation.

(03:25:39):
Jade Dew is another literal melon.
And I've had those.
They're pretty good.
I think the Tuscan Melon is my favorite.
Ah, you just love melons.
The Picasso Melon.
Calabash Melons.
That's Calabash Melons.
The Kiss Melon.
It's got a big tongue that comes out
of it.
The Papaya Melon.
The Balin Melon.
The Yubari King Melon.

(03:26:02):
Autumn Sweets.
Autumn Sweets, the melon of choice for connoisseurs.
He's going to run out of melons, by
the way.
I don't want to make melons a variety
show.
Oh, I think he's got them.
But he hasn't even said watermelon yet.
Exactly.
Cantola Melon.
Another one I've never heard of, but you
know.
How long will he be able to come
up with melon names?

(03:26:24):
Korean Melons.
I love his melon assortment.
Gak Melons.
The Ananas Melon.
Never had one.
The Sprite Melon.
Charentais Melons, which is literally a melon.
Kevin McLaughlin's back, this time promoting the Snap
Melon for YouTube Discord.
I love melons!

(03:26:58):
And nobody will even have to care.
We're gonna be waving bye-bye to everyone,
you and me.
I'm gonna get a tan from the land
of fear, of nuclear fusion decay.
It's gonna be raining all over the world.
I'm gonna look so great.

(03:27:21):
It's gonna be a war we're ready for.

(03:27:42):
And I'm doing all I can to get
ready for world water free.
It's so exciting to look and see.
There's gonna be mushroom clouds everywhere.

(03:28:03):
you and me.
I'm gonna get a tan from the rays
of me, of nuclear fusion decay.
There's gonna be a war with Iran.

(03:28:25):
ready for world water free.

(03:28:47):
ready to look and see.
There's gonna be mushroom clouds everywhere.
you and me.
I'm gonna get a tan from the rays
of me, of nuclear fusion decay.

(03:29:11):
Put in their masses.
This is a memo that describes how we're
going to take out seven countries in five
years.
Just like witches at black masses.

(03:29:35):
When I first came to office, one of
the first meetings I had was at the
Pentagon with generals.
Evil minds that plot destruction.
Bolton has always said, let's go to war,
but he's not the one who's gonna go
in the forefront.
He's a coward.
Sorcerer of death's construction.

(03:29:55):
Iran.
The leaders of Iran are racketeers.
Behind every problem is Iran.
They heard what you said in 2016 and
liked it when you said no more stupid
wars.
You got a rogue president in the White
House surrounded by these uber-hawks that thirst

(03:30:17):
for another war with Iran.
The International Atomic Energy Agency has never found
Iran in contravention of stipulations in the deal.
If Iran wants to fight, that will be
the official end of Iran.
Never threaten the United States again.
I'm not somebody that wants to go into

(03:30:39):
war.
Is the United States heading towards another Middle
East showdown?
This time with Iran.
Let's have a war so you can go
die.
The best podcast in the universe.
Adios, mofo.
