John C Dvorak: They need to be
new.
Unknown: Adam curry Jhansi
Devora
Adam Curry: number 720 23 This
is your award winning
combination media assassination
episode 1588.
Unknown: This is no agenda
Adam Curry: Uncensored on mass
and broadcasting live from the
heart of the Texas hill country
here in FEMA Region number six
in the morning, everybody. I'm
Adam curry
John C Dvorak: and from Northern
Silicon Valley where I'm here to
declare the world's worst candy
is Swedish Fish. I'm John C.
Dvorak. Gil.
Adam Curry: You never cease to
amaze Swedish Fish who eats
that? Oh, don't eat it. Don't
eat that stuff, man. That's no
good.
John C Dvorak: Oh my god. It's
doesn't it's not a gummy. It's
not a hard candy. It's not a.it
says nothing. It's not got a
little bread gob. And the flavor
is the flavor of red dye. Number
four, nothing going on.
Adam Curry: Now did you buy
these or did they just show up
in them in the PIO box are
John C Dvorak: on sale as
everything is typically gross
out? Gross. Yeah, man. These
Adam Curry: are on sale. How can
I?
John C Dvorak: Well, I've had
him before and I've never
realized how really bad they
are. When you go to Sweden.
You've been to Sweden.
Adam Curry: I've been to Sweden
once Actually, only once.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, well, you
could go to the grocery store,
which I always managed to do
wherever I go. You go to the
grid. They have bins of these
things. And this in your sweet
your friends Swedish friends was
oh yeah, we love these all we
love these. Do we love the
Swedish Fish? It gets some of
these. Especially you get them
by the bin full. And there's
just dreadful.
Adam Curry: You know, I liked
your newsletter rant better.
Swedish Fish rent. You had a
great rant in the newsletter.
About what what May I May I
quote, you know, of course the
Biden administration is trying
to juggle too many balls and
it's showing. Besides inflation,
overspending gas prices dustbins
if Ukraine war and impending
impeachment inquiry, the Hunter
Biden mess the proliferation of
trans mouse ideologies, state
approved female and male genital
mutilation, rampant crime in the
major cities, led by an undue
shoplifting epidemic, continued
COVID fear with double vaccin
double boosted Jill Biden
getting COVID Again, Trump
indictments headed by a
decidedly corrupt Justice
Department, Maui corruption,
fires and flooding everywhere
because of bad resource
management, universally poor
test scores by the American
children and an open border and
consequent crises. How are all
these policies working out? Does
anyone think the public wants
four more years of this is much
to discuss. Donate now.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, it's one of
those.
Adam Curry: That was good. It
was good. I liked it.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, this one
sentence.
Adam Curry: Yeah. It was even
hard to read that way.
John C Dvorak: You did you did
you read it right.
Adam Curry: And I thought, we
need a no agenda rebuttal to
this.
Unknown: This good luck just to
set everybody
Adam Curry: in the right tone.
Mas do not stop you from getting
or spreading flu cold or COVID.
COVID is not a killer virus.
mRNA is not a vaccine. It's an
experimental gene tinkering
thing. There are only men and
women to spirit and non binary
are not genders. Librarians used
to be hot, not ugly. With green
hair. There is no LGBTQ
community. There is no black
community. The world is not
overpopulated. There's no
structural wage difference
between men and women in the
workplace. All politics is
theater. The US president is not
the king, the emperor or your
daddy, who's going to save you
if you want to speak to your
real father, talk to God. All
advertising based media is
dishonest at best and likely
propaganda. And climate change
initiatives are a huge money
making global scam.
John C Dvorak: So my little rant
triggered you Yes,
Adam Curry: it did. Did.
John C Dvorak: So well. I can do
a series of complaints. I can
also do a series of complaints.
And so you put that little list
together that we wish is quite
good. I might add Thank you.
Adam Curry: Thank you, but it
just hit me. It's like come on
people. We need to just stop
with going along with stuff here
for a minute. The dog actually
got up and came over and looked
at me Are you okay, daddy? You
Okay, daddy?
John C Dvorak: Dogs do that.
Adam Curry: And I have to say my
favorite because we know I have
great Africa stuff today. We're
not going to start with Africa.
I'm keeping that in the brain.
It ruins donations. People two
guys, although I think I have in
half a show. I have an actual
second half of the show. But I'm
thinking to Africa, I finally
have it. And that's because the
elites were all down in Kenya
but the news of the day has got
to be Elon Musk playing the heel
to the Elan versus the anti
Defamation League Elon versus
the G Who's kerfuffle? This is
like a W. W. E. SmackDown.
John C Dvorak: Oh, I'm glad you
caught that because I mean, I'm
very aware I read all the stuff
above. I never found any clips.
Adam Curry: Oh, be boring. Oh,
no, the clip collector and the
clip custodian everyone was all
over this because, I mean, it's
turned into actually, we can go
back in time. Remember when Ilan
was I think he had just
purchased Twitter. And he was
talking before an audience of
investors and what was the guy's
name Ron Baron. And, and he and
Elon was talking about your what
he's going to do with these are
all the guys that backed Elon to
buy Twitter. And this is
obviously what is this? This is
from? This is from last year,
isn't it? I mean, it's this is a
long time ago. And he was
already complaining about the
anti Defamation League
specifically, you can go and
take a look at their stop the
hate campaign, which they
proudly put on Twitter
everywhere, saying that, Oh,
here it is. ADL orders
advertisers to bail on Twitter
calls the Bible and anti semitic
conspiracy theory. I mean, this
was all going on. And yes, the
ADL was going to advertisers
telling them not to, not to
advertise. And then we even had
the douchebag from what was it?
What's the big agency
Interpublic? No, what is it?
Unknown: Two of them? Yeah, I
Adam Curry: can't remember the
name. What is the name of the
big one pub was that publicists?
A publicist Anyway, listen to as
Elon is talking to his investor,
and this is a year ago.
Unknown: So and then we also
recently had a lot of difficulty
with activist groups pressuring
major advertisers to stop
spending money on Twitter. This
is despite us doing everything
possible to appease them. And to
make it clear that moderation
rules and hateful conduct rules
have not changed. And we're
continuing to enforce them. The
n number of major advertisers
have stopped spending on
Twitter. So this, but this is,
this doesn't seem right, because
we've made no change in our
operations at all. And
nonetheless, the activist groups
have been successful in causing
a massive drop in Twitter
advertising revenue, and we've
done our absolute best to
appease them and nothing is
working. So this is a major
concern. And I think this is
frankly, an attack on the First
Amendment. Like if activist
groups can pressure advertisers
upon which Twitter is
fundamentally dependent to
suppress free speech then that
doesn't seem right.
Adam Curry: Oh, yes. Wonderful.
So Elon doesn't give a crap
about advertising. This is well
known he was even even claimed
to be cashflow positive
recently, because he's he's got
his he's paying people money to
post this has nothing to do with
advertising. You hired that
Yeah. Karina woman, just to be a
gaslighter. Really even she's an
unwitting idiot. In this case.
It's all eyes on Elon, don't
look at thread. Don't look at
Facebook. Look at me all the
actions over here. This is
great. Come on, you know. And
the mainstream media lapped it
up.
John C Dvorak: My favorite thing
that the mainstream media labs
up is x. Otherwise they're
previously known as Twitter.
Adam Curry: I mean, could you
have any better advertising? He
is playing the heel? You want to
explain the classic heel move in
wrestling? I think you probably
do better than I can.
John C Dvorak: Well, yeah,
there's one guy who's always the
bad guy. I mean, I do throwing
this at me out of the blue,
because I'm not sure what you're
angling for. But there's a bad
guy in wrestling who's always
just, uh, just a bad guy who
always ends up being the
cheater. He's always like, Oh,
no, no, no, no, no, no, don't
hit me. No, don't no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, that he gives it
to the guy punched him right in
the face and then into the
throat, slaps real crush, flips
them over. And then he starts to
pin him, you know, and then he
gets kicked off
Adam Curry: well done. That's a
pretty good explanation. So we
have to get everybody involved.
We need all the pundits on this
one. Let's go to Jake Tapper,
who has my favorite Kara Swisher
to explain what's going on here
Unknown: in our tech lead. Says
he's threatening to sue the anti
Defamation League for lost
revenue at x the website
formerly known as Twitter must
claim without any evidence that
we've seen claims without any
evidence that we've seen ADL
statements about rising hate
speech on the platform are the
reason why there is has been a
60% decrease in advertising
advertising. The ADL and other
organizations have noted the
increase in hate speech on page
since Musk took over and removed
much of the content moderation I
suppose I think in
Adam Curry: discovery it will
come out that he didn't remove
much of the content moderation
he's actually added more
John C Dvorak: I think so too. I
can tell by the way my numbers
go Oh,
Adam Curry: I get no traction. I
mean, I can post something it
may be hours later if the right
person with the blue checkmark
does something maybe Oh no. And
this now community notes now
he's done more and there's lots
of people getting kicked off.
But this
John C Dvorak: goes back to Jay
yet people are getting kicked
off left and right they're about
it but this is
Adam Curry: you know he liked
Kanye back Kanye hasn't tweeted
anything but you know Kanye is
clearly was he was the the
genesis behind the stop the hate
campaign which the ADL it's on
their own website they were
telling advertisers do not
advertise on Twitter. Now, do I
think that's a defamation? No,
no, there's never gonna be a
lawsuit this is all promotion
and it's good when for
Unknown: the ADL responded to
Musk's threat quote, the ADL
isn't surprised yet undeterred
than anti Semites white
supremacists conspiracy
theorists oh here we get other
trolls have launched a
coordinated attack on
organization this type of thing
is nothing new on
Adam Curry: if I was going to
promote Twitter I'd want
everybody to know that all the
nut jobs are over on my side you
don't want something sanitized
even though it is come on over
all the
John C Dvorak: fake out is a
faint the trolls are here
Unknown: he Elon Musk later said
quote to be super clear, I'm pro
free speech but against anti
semitism of any kind. Never
really good sign when you have
to clarify to people that you're
against anti semitism, but it's
just empirically
Adam Curry: I love Hey, he said
he doesn't hate Jews. It's never
good when you have to say you
don't hate Jews, okay.
John C Dvorak: Which makes no
sense. No, of
Unknown: course heard his free
speech position when you take
this, what he calls a purist
free speech position, although
it's although it's not real. He
blocks free speech. He doesn't
like yeah, damn right. But he
allows anti semitism to
flourish. And we've all we've
all seen it
right. Well, he's first
amendment as a Swiss Hold on a
second. We both seen it.
John C Dvorak: What what
evidence does he have he's seen
it
Adam Curry: and so as Kara
right, they haven't.
John C Dvorak: Right, right.
They haven't seen anything.
There's no It's bull crap. You
know, if you want to go to the
real crazy stuff in the wild
that antiSemitism and everything
in it, everything in between you
go to Mastodon Mastodon is where
all the craziness really are
through.
Unknown: Its although it's not
real. He's he blocks free speech
he doesn't like but he allows
anti semitism flourish.
flourish. And we've all we've
all seen it right.
That is a Swiss army knife,
whatever it suits him. Swiss
Army knife will either block
people or cut people off or sue
people or say he's for free
speech. It's sort of it's his
cloak that is everybody can see
through it's transparent. And so
you know, I just
Adam Curry: loved your protege
your protege Kara Swisher does a
thank you for getting her into
podcasting. Thank you. Because I
love when she said I'm just
gonna sound so much better than
everybody else. He has a Swiss
army knife he has gone on to
unconsciously
Unknown: threatening to groups.
John C Dvorak: This is like
scripted to me. This is like the
broader out. She's a spook.
Adam Curry: Want to be that best
cloak that
John C Dvorak: well, she's still
taking. This is like you could
predict everything going on. And
Adam Curry: no, she's not a
spook she is focused. But you
John C Dvorak: can't predict
everything that's going on in
this Yeah, can predict what
tappers got to say. You can
predict what she's got to say.
It's all hot air. Yeah, it's
great.
Unknown: Everybody can see
through, it's transparent. And
so, you know, it's threatening
to groups like ADL or a lot of
these academic groups. All of
them and they're very nervous.
Oh, yeah.
Adam Curry: They're very
nervous. The ADL is very that by
the way, the ADL anti Defamation
League aren't they against all
defamation or only anti semitism
because it's a little unclear
too
John C Dvorak: much anti
semitism. If it comes down to
that guy Can I mention something
else?
Adam Curry: Please
John C Dvorak: What is the deal
with a number of people carry
included that just hate Musk to
an extreme? What is he ever done
to them? Oh no they hate him so
much. I mean it you can go on my
I follow some people on the
other mastodons you know those
especially Masson on social and
this hatred. It's just like Musk
is literally hated. For what
because
Adam Curry: it's advertising
based media. This what you're
hearing now with Kara and Jake,
and it's wrestling. It's
theater. It's not real. He's the
heel. He's in on the game.
John C Dvorak: I I'm not arguing
that point of it. But I read
from guys that I know are
sincere. They sincerely hate
musk and I think Kara is one of
them. Oh, show your hatred
despises
Adam Curry: him. Yes. Because he
doesn't talk to her anymore. He
doesn't do interviews over the
holiday weekend. She ran an old
interview me or Elon, don't talk
to me anymore. So I'm gonna run
the old interviews. You can see
what the old Elon You're right.
Oh, yeah, she's pathetic, your
protege?
John C Dvorak: A lot of these
academic groups, by the way, she
doesn't even remember my name.
Unknown: I've talked to all of
them and they're very nervous to
talk because or do reports it's
it has a chilling effect on
these because they're going to
be subject to a lawsuit by the
world's richest man who the
reason advertising is down is
because it's a worst platform.
That's it. And so, you know, his
tactic is and I hate to say it
is playing the TOS. That's what
he's doing right here. And so
that's why everybody's tweets
are very carefully calibrated to
sort of dog whistle to a lot of
people and at the same time, go
but I'm not an anti dog
John C Dvorak: whistle.
Adam Curry: I would be okay if
it was just CNN and Kara Swisher
but everybody was all over this.
And so MSNBC part of the NBC
family of stations. Joe
Scarborough Morning Joe brings
in Andrew Ross Sorkin because of
course, we've got to fight do
with Jude Law. This is a witch
on
Unknown: I remember beforehand
on the show, asking Kara Swisher
Why would he do this? This makes
absolutely no sense notice
Adam Curry: Kara Swisher also
talked to MSNBC. Why is Kara
Swisher the one that is that is
the expert on all of this. Why
don't they call you the person
who taught her on tech, all
things tech? I mean, this is
this is interesting and
Unknown: business wise. This is
a nightmare. He shouldn't do
this. Why aren't people stopping
him from doing this? Why are his
lawyers stopping him from doing
this? This is going to be a
nightmare. Even I couldn't
imagine that it would be this
bad of a nightmare, Andrew. So
is there anybody in his orbit
that can talk about an exit
strategy. So one of the most
brilliant creators of our time
can get back.
Adam Curry: This is this is the
interesting part. That it always
goes like this. I love Tesla. I
hate Elon. I like he's a genius,
one of the greatest minds of our
time, which he's not he didn't
invent Tesla. He didn't invent
rockets. He bought Tesla it was
Mike Morris and rule of both are
the geniuses if you ask me, but
you always genius. He drills
holes in the ground. But why
does he hate the Jews? Come on
people this theater to creating
Unknown: things and and changing
lives instead of being down in
some social media mud pit. I
think that's frankly, what Lindy
Ocarina is trying to do. That's
what she's been brought on to
do. But I think that at the same
time, there's this great
conundrum that Elon Musk has
created himself, which is he
wants this to be this, you know,
full on laissez faire free
speech platform and at the same
time, he needs money. He needs
revenue from advertisers and
irrespective of what you think
you're seeing on this platform.
Advertisers are voting with
their feet. They're voting with
their their pocketbook. They're
looking at what they're seeing
on Twitter and they're deciding
that they think it's not a brand
safe place to be
Adam Curry: Sorkin is is he's
buying into it. The he's he's
from CNBC, Sorkin thinks that
Elon Musk New York Times hack
the wall. Yeah, that too. But
he's out every morning. He's on
CNBC. Yeah, that's what he does.
And so he brings on the
director, the executive
director, the CEO of the anti
Defamation League. This is
Jonathan Greenblatt. I mean,
this is this has been blown out
and Twitter X, the company
formula was Twitter. It's not
public company anymore. Who
cares? Why do you care? What is
the big deal? He's not going to
be doing using it not driving an
advertising based business. He
wants to be your bank. He's
He's, he's you can buy sponsored
tweets. This has nothing to do
with advertising anymore, which
is down and very much dead
online right now.
Unknown: I thought you had a
decent relationship with Elon
Musk. We've had a number of
conversations over the last
several months where you've come
on and been supportive. So what
what happened here?
Well, so let's get back. Right.
So I had a meeting last week
with Lindy ocarina, the new CEO
of Twitter, right right at home
request, right. productive
conversation. I tweeted
afterwards about that fact that
we had a frank and productive
conversation, as I've had with
Elon Elon Musk in the past and
then that triggered a number of
white supremacists to organize
this hashtag campaign banned the
ADL.
Adam Curry: Okay, so the big
offense here is white
supremacists. And I think if you
put I'm a white supremacist in
your profile, then you can be
identified. They put a hashtag
ban, the ADL, and this set this
whole thing in motion. This is
why this guy is so bent out of
shape.
Unknown: And you got to
understand and we're used to
this at the ADL, we regularly
get attacked by the right and
the left. But this campaign went
viral, very thorough with white
supremacists, you know, hardened
anti Semites, hardened anti
Semite writing it across the
surface in funding topic. Over
the course of the weekend.
Adam Curry: It was a trending
topic. What is this John, what
is going on? Why are these
people so? Oh, he was a trending
topic, Ben, the ADL where they
themselves started the hashtag
stop the hate is because they
don't they don't control it.
They don't control it. And it's
the only one that matters.
According to Joe Scarborough.
Unknown: I want to throw this
open to everybody. I guess.
something fascinating has
happened. I think like a lot of
people like jumped over to
threads. I've actually jumped
over to threads,
Adam Curry: threads he jumped
over to uses thread.
Unknown: And everybody on this
show will tell you and I'm sure
you feel the same way Twitter
was always extraordinary for its
newsfeed even when oh yes phrase
extraordinary easy on there. I
would still get my news feed
from there and learn in five
minutes what I what I needed to
know for at least that day, it
was pretty crazy. The threads
thread I'll be honest, I'm I'm
jumping back and forth but I
don't see the same vitality on
threads. I can't get the nose.
Still even from the left, not
the engagement on threads. You
gotta go to blue sky that there
still is on the X so nice.
Adam Curry: Oh, he said on the X
we didn't even say formerly
known as he just said on the X.
He's branding
Unknown: I'm not on either one
of them a whole lot but I'm
curious so we had this you our
threads explosion at the
beginning. It seemed to have
died down and I can just say as
a user. There's no forget maybe
Donnie or somebody talked about
squeezing the juice from
something there just doesn't
seem to be juice on threads
right now.
Right I don't I don't disagree
with you. I
have the same experience.
Adam Curry: There's no juice on
threads right now. This is this
is so looser juice. Exactly.
This is what I like so much. He
used the juice word there's a
lot of juice hate. No man. It
just cracks me up and people are
the the mainstream has nothing
better to do. Clip after clip
after clip. ball will go Oh, and
they all when Elon Musk bought
Twitter. They all were we're
going to Mastodon and they went
to Mastodon and found out they
couldn't rule the roost because
there's no retweets on Mastodon
there's no good and then they
all went we're going to blue sky
and blue sky if you used to have
you been
John C Dvorak: you can reach
tweet on Mastodon but you can't
read a tweet with a comment
Adam Curry: yes correct you can
boost that's right you can't you
can't read tweet with a quote
your quote post whatever quote
tweet, quote retweet whatever,
John C Dvorak: which was, which
by the way was rather new on
Twitter itself initially never
had that feature. And he always
had the effect didn't have
retweets at all. You had to do
our T caps are T and then you
cut and paste and do it
yourself.
Adam Curry: Yeah, yeah, our T
That's right. Our T that's how
it started. It's just it's it's
I find it hilarious that this is
a thing. Oh, we have to talk
about this. is hate speech hate
speech? Well, this is promoting
Twitter. The x as far as I'm
concerned. Everybody wants to go
where there's strife. That's the
holy you
John C Dvorak: want to go where
there's action? Yeah, actually,
thank
Adam Curry: you action. We want
to action we want to action. But
meanwhile, you can't really get
a story about what's happening
in New York, which is not unique
to New York. And we talk to
family members in Chicago and
they're very angry at Austin,
Texas. Very angry.
John C Dvorak: Text. What did
you horrible Texans do employees
shipped up yet you're being
invaded with?
Adam Curry: We've got you've got
migrants sleeping in airports
sleeping in police stations. Oh,
now it's in Chicago, the whole
12 district. The whole the
vestibule is completely filled
with people who are sleeping
there. And then Mayor Adams of
New York, the mayor said that
sanctuary city sanctuary city,
the governor said it to the
mayor the mayor said it and Now
it's a problem. Never in
Unknown: my life. Have I had a
problem that I did not see in
India to see a hint into this. I
don't see Indian tourists. This
issue will destroy New York
City. Destroy New York City.
We're getting 10,000 migrants
among
John C Dvorak: mine. One time,
we will just hold on a second.
Just stop. Compare that to
Texas. 10,000, Texas and Texas,
by the way, I would say is
handling it rather well compared
to these whiners. In the
sanctuary cities. They get
10,000 a month, which is
nothing. And it's going to ruin
the city.
Adam Curry: Oh, yeah. Oh, it's
they're dead already. Listen.
Unknown: One time we were just
in Venezuela. Now we can
Ecuador. Now we can, roughly
speaking coming through Mexico.
Now we didn't a Western Africa.
Now we're getting people from
all over the globe that made
their minds up that they're
going to come through the
southern part of the border and
come into New York City. And
everyone is saying is New York
City's problem. Every community
in this city is going to be
impacted, we had a $12 billion
deficit that we're going to have
to cut, every service in this
city is going to be impacted all
of us. So I say to you, as I
turn it over to you. This is
some some of the most educated
some of the most knowledgeable,
probably more of my
commissioners and Deputy
Commissioners and chiefs live in
this community. So as you asked
me a question about migrants
tell me what role to play. How
many of you organize to stop
what they're doing to us?
Adam Curry: Ah, notice what he
says to stop what they're doing
to us. The House Divided will
not stand if you're going to pit
New York against Texas and
Chicago against Texas, that that
right? There is the most
unpatriotic thing I've ever
heard anyone say in politics. He
is pitting state against state.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, well,
that's what you do. Now a couple
of things. Here's a couple of
ways to stop. And first of all,
if you recall, when they sent
the first buses up there, they
were welcoming them welcoming,
welcoming them with open arms
and a clipboard. And here's
here's your 10 bucks. Here's
some money
Adam Curry: in 10. Here's your
cell phone. He's just 20
John C Dvorak: Here you go.
Here's this and they were
welcoming you to New York. So
there was that one, the second
thing is just dropped the
sanctuary city bull crap. Yeah.
Just say because Texas,
according to Abbott is only
sending these states, these
these migrants to sanctuary
cities who are are so arrogant
about being sanctuary cities.
Just say we're not a sanctuary
city anymore. We were
cooperating with ice and all the
rest of it, that goes, goes
away. They won't do that. So
whose fault is this? They
welcome them with open arms.
They claim to be sanctuary
cities and they keep the claim
they don't put that in abeyance,
which they could easily do. And
then they moan and groan
Adam Curry: but I think this is
the intent here is the same
that's going on in most of the
West. Is to ruin the West. Ruin
America ruin Europe. We're doing
great job and you're we're
helping out in Europe is great.
John C Dvorak: You mean the west
by by? When you say the West?
You mean Western civilization?
Yes.
Adam Curry: That's what I mean.
Western civilization. Yes. Yeah,
you start with the cities ruin
the cities. Yeah, that's
John C Dvorak: what Marxists
have to do to get a handle on
these things. Yeah. And it's a
Marxist thing. Marxism at work?
Yes. And they're doing a much
better job than anybody else.
And we have open we have people
like the squad, we have people
in Congress, the Democrats
socialists that are open
Marxist, they did this is like,
I'm a communist. There are
people, students in colleges
around this country that will
openly say I'm a communist. This
is not good.
Adam Curry: No. And now let's
just look at Europe, where the
choleric gi plan is, in effect,
Germany, and we had a big hand
in this. Oh, I'm sorry. It was
someone on a sailboat who blew
up the Nord Stream. So Germany,
companies like BASF SAP, they're
leaving Germany. They have to
enter she drives they can't
afford they can't afford.
There's bankruptcies. There's
huge inflation. There's mass
layoffs, high unemployment.
There's hundreds of protests was
hundreds of 1000s of people. You
are not seeing you're not seeing
this on your mainstream France
is being systematically ruined.
And it's you know, and McCrone
is just like no, it's all fine
don't worry about it. You know,
uranium prices are going through
the roof for their energy, the
all these countries that they
were in charge of and print
their money for all revolting
and writing it. Where's the
Netherlands? The farmers no
farmers love getting rid of the
farmers, the UK all their
infrastructure money and believe
me having lived in the UK, the
infrastructure money is
important thought being sent to
Ukraine. Immigration is
replacing indigenous families.
By everything, the only the rich
people are the bankers, the
green bullcrap or the bankers.
Yeah, the drug addiction, trans
Maoism. What we did to Africa
we're now doing to the west.
Well, we whoever we is, I'm just
gonna say it's, oh, I can't say
it's like the Rockefellers or
the Rothschilds or anything like
that, because the ADL but it's
you should
John C Dvorak: you should read
this just to show how crazy
things are. And this is not
quite on. Perfect topic. But I
think is her letter worth
reading is the guy they are
younger a member who went to
auditions. Yes.
Adam Curry: Oh, hold on a
second. Let
Unknown: me pull that up. This
is a good note to read.
Adam Curry: It's funny you say
that because I I didn't actually
put it in my notes to read
because I was like, you know,
and I wished him well and
everything I thought you know,
maybe that was a goodness, you
don't happen to have that on
hand. Pretty quick. It was it
was a great note. Goodness, I
did not put that into my show
notes. Then when he went to an
Alcoholics Anonymous meeting,
it's like a big powwow. It
John C Dvorak: was a big and
4000 minute you know powwow
which is kind of odd, but they
had a big super meet up of a
member of yelling yelling most
of the I think a members that
were had. I didn't it was like,
I guess steering committees or
somebody that they met in San
Francisco. And actually sent him
a note couple notes back
including this last one. I can
just look that up.
Unknown: Here it is.
Adam Curry: I have it here. I'm
reaching out to get boots on the
ground report from Alcoholics
Anonymous. First off, I'm a
young person in AAA I just
started going February this
year. I'm involved with the
young persons committee in my
area. The last weekend September
1 through the third I attended
an international young people's
of AAA convention in San
Francisco at the Marriott
Marquis. There are about 4000
people from mostly around the US
but some from around the world.
There were many AAA related
events, but there were two major
speaker events where nearly
everyone gathered in an
auditorium to listen to them
speak. The first speaker was a
black trans woman. And the
second speaker was a super
flaming white gay man. As you
can imagine, there was some woke
woke propaganda injected in
their shares. Surprisingly, the
white gay man pushed the idea of
privilege and not feeling like
he even belonged in the AAA
rooms because of his sexuality
compared to the trans woman. It
just irritates me that not even
in the AAA can we get away from
the woke messaging? I just want
to learn to live in recovery and
not drink not to be told to look
at the world through race and
privilege. Ay ay ay is the one
place that I felt doesn't care
about your age, race, gender,
sexuality, politics, etc.
Because we're all bonded
together by the incomprehensible
demoralisation we felt when we
hit rock bottom, just want to
share it the woke mind virus is
truly spreading in every crevice
of society. Thank you for all
your work.
John C Dvorak: Marxism and I, my
last comment to him was that
this was a episode of corrupted
an example of corrupted
leadership. Someone hired
someone hired a woke a hole and
here you go, that's, you know,
this is one of the little themes
that I've had on this show,
which is that don't hire these
people. They're a plague.
They're a cancer, you get them
in your organization. And the
next thing you know you've got
something like this happening.
Adam Curry: Which brings me to a
clip which I was not going to
play. I think I have to, this is
one of those people you're
talking about. This looks like a
woman. She has orange hair. She
has a woman figure I can tell
and she's in her car now her
eyebrows are shaved with no gaps
in them because I think that's
cool. Obviously. She's got you
know, blown out ear holes and
everything and some piercings.
It doesn't really I don't gauged
Yeah, it's like okay, and upcard
undercard fade card was all
fine, you know as long as you're
good worker but this is the
message she said
Unknown: she thinks I'm non
binary go at them. Okay,
Adam Curry: non binary is not a
thing, lady, I'm just sorry, I'm
not gonna stand for it anymore.
But you're I'm poor. I said,
lady,
Unknown: she thinks I'm non
binary, I go at them. And I work
in a store that is pretty much
all women. So whenever they're
like addressing us, or when
they're talking, they're always
like, Hey, ladies. So I've taken
it upon myself as someone that
is non binary, to use this to
not listen. And whenever anyone
addresses a group as ladies, I
am not included. So when they
say, Hey, ladies, let's like
stop talking, or Hey, ladies,
let's like get to work. I will
do none of it. Because you're
not talking to me. You're not
talking to me. You're not
talking to me. So I will not
listen to anything that I said.
When it is started with Hey,
ladies. I'm a lady, not a lady.
They
Adam Curry: have AD. There you
go. Your
John C Dvorak: ad I this is a
new one. They do. They do. They
Adam Curry: do ad
Unknown: now it's time for our
trouble smiles.
Adam Curry: destruct initiated
because they do that they ad. By
the way, on the trans mouse
agenda, which took down Anheuser
Busch, we've been looking for
the turnaround for the stock
signal, if you will, this is
what you said, you know, this is
what you do. Like you got to
hammer this you got you got to
short it on the way down. You
got to head up. And there's
various and Yeah, well, Bill
Gates apparently just bought 1.7
million shares of Anheuser Busch
InBev.
John C Dvorak: He's one of those
guys. He doesn't do these
investments. He has a team of
people. Oh, yeah. That are his
investment team. That means a
lot of it. There's not one or
two guys. It's not it's like,
Adam Curry: but that means that
the CEO probably is about to go.
I mean, there's got to be
something coming up.
John C Dvorak: That's got to be
one of them. The one I've been
following, we're using the same
idea is target. Yeah, target.
Same idea. Yeah. Which was the
CEO gets fired. That's it.
That's it long term. Investment
seems to me, and it's not an
investment advice. I don't give
investment advice.
Unknown: It's not investment
advice at all. We're just
telling you the obvious.
Adam Curry: So on the
destruction of Europe, which is
really the catalyst is Ukraine.
We're doing a great job of that
great job even uh, you know, I
think it was it was, what's your
face? Nancy, Nancy Pelosi was
talking to BBC is Hard Talk. And
she explained quite beautifully,
what, what is going on with us
and while she says Europe, but
we understand what's happening,
but the US doesn't need China
when it comes to climate change
is the US showing leadership
because the reality is while Joe
Biden is spending 10s and 10s of
billions of dollars on the
energy transition on renewables
on infrastructure to create some
sort of green economy, oil
output is at record levels,
record levels of exports of
liquefied natural gas, the
United States essentially is
giving the world a message of we
want to have our cake and eat it
too. We want to talk green, but
we want to deliver fossil fuel
Unknown: revenue, the spirit of
your title of Hard Talk, you're
completely
wrong.
Completely wrong.
You're not making any
differentiation. You're just
paying the liquefied natural gas
issue is an issue to supply
countries that need it because
they don't have to be dependent
on Russia. I myself have had my
back and forth with the Chinese
government.
Adam Curry: Alright, so you
don't need to hear any more of
that. So that is truly what we
did. We blew up the pipeline.
I'm saying we America Americans
blew up the pipeline not some
guys from Ukraine on a sailboat.
We blew up the pipelines Thank
you, Seymour Hersh for setting
it out straight. Why is he so
alive? And and then we built
overnight, we built a liquid
petroleum gas terminals. We do
have floating terminals in
Europe. Don't worry, we're gonna
save you all take, oh, it's a
little expensive, but don't
worry about it. And then all of
a sudden, all of a sudden. We
have this happening.
Unknown: Turning out of the war
in Ukraine, Russia unleashed one
of its worst attacks on
civilians in months today, a
missile strike in eastern
Ukraine, killing at least 17
people and wounding dozens. The
attack unfolding as Secretary of
State Antony Blinken returned to
the warzone with a new aid
package for America's biggest
ally. CBS is empty as Taya
reports from Keith
Adam Curry: I love how just as
Blinken does a covert mission
there he sneaks in. We've got
pictures of him going through
papers and what looks like a
train car or something. Maybe
that's in that special
underground bunker and he's got
his you know, he's got his
civilian like his is his hood.
He and he's all zipped up and
he's doing important work and
his pictures of him all stylized
and then we have some missile
that comes in kills 17 people in
a child and all was right on
time. Good to have you there
blink.
Unknown: The moment to Russian
missiles slammed into a busy
outdoor muzzle nice bringing
fire engine effects through the
streets of Constantine Meyer
death. The carnage in the
eastern Donetsk region is one of
the deadliest Russian assaults
in must and came shortly after
missiles targeting Keith were
shocked down by Ukrainian air
defenses. As Secretary of State
Antony Blinken was traveling to
the Capitol by train on an
unannounced two day trip.
Adam Curry: There you go. He was
on a train spur since
Unknown: the start of Ukraine's
counter offensive nearly three
months ago,
Adam Curry: but it does not make
any sense to you. That's how
you're going to send the
secretary of state into Ukraine
by train. Don't you think it'd
be a military aircraft that
would come in you know that have
F sixteens accompanying and do
all kinds of stuff, but he know
they put them on a train. And
where did the train come from?
John C Dvorak: Does it work?
Okay, let's there's a trend is
probably from Poland does where
the train comes from? Okay, why
don't the if this is so what it
is? Why don't the Russians just
blow up that train track? The
one missiles just take out a
mile?
Adam Curry: I'm not even sure
that missile was from Russia. No
one in Russia said Yeah, we did
that. Usually,
John C Dvorak: I'm not sure if
anything after you actually one
of the things that you said when
when the Russians hit that hotel
or whatever it was out of the
blue. And it turned out that
there was a drone conference
going on. There was a trade show
for drone manufacturers this
place and not one mainstream
media operation reported on it.
You got it from some European
source. And ever since then,
it's like this is bullcrap. We
don't know anything going on.
All we know is that Blinken went
over there promised another
billion after the idiot, which I
mentioned in the news. I think
it was in the newsletter that
Zelinsky sent some drones into
pole in and into Russia and
blamed the Russians by come on
NATO read they need to be nuked.
Yep, suggest that nuke nuclear
bombs. Yeah, this is a smart guy
from NATO because of these
attacks on Poland and Romania
that he did. Yeah. fact that
that's going on in that blink
and goes over okay, well, let's
don't do that again, because
it's embarrassing us.
Adam Curry: There's something
else going on here. Blinken is
not just there for let's finish
this report. And then we'll get
into offensive
Unknown: nearly three months ago
by a blanket arrived with a
promise of a further billion
dollars in military aid. That
includes controversial depleted
uranium munitions,
and the ongoing counter offense.
Progress has accelerated in the
past few weeks. This new
assistance will help sustain it
and build further momentum.
Adam Curry: Okay, now before we
go on, so and he's made this
statement has been all over the
news. They've made progress,
significant progress in the
counter offensive, please go to
counter map.no agenda notes.com
to see the significant progress
they have made. John do you ever
browser is it.com? No. Yes, it's
counter map.no agenda notes.com.
Then you'll see the you'll see
the region the you'll see the
region this is red. That is the
entire legend. It did it. Um, do
you see the little blue? by Adam
curry. Do you see the little
blue? Do you see the little blue
things? Yeah, that's the
progress. Significant progress
by the counter offensive? No,
there's no progress. That's
nothing we did
Unknown: uranium munitions. In
the ongoing counter offense.
Progress has accelerated
accelerated past few weeks. This
new assistance will help sustain
and build further momentum.
In recent days, Ukrainian forces
have pushed further south in
this upper region region. But
progress is painfully slow
thanks to Russian airstrikes and
minefields as president Solinsky
also navigates political
minefields. This week he removed
defense minister Alexei
Resnikoff for failing to tackle
corruption replaced him with
Rustom O'Meara, who has a
reputation as an anti corruption
campaigner who's now responsible
for overseeing billions of
dollars in military funds. Now
as the war grinds on and Ukraine
continues to seek outside
support, President Solinsky
wants his Western backers to
know he's willing to take a hard
line on corruption, while also
continuing to fight off Russia.
And it's deadly Attack. So
that's
Adam Curry: that's just a
tagline in the story, a tagline
about the corruption and I have
a boots on the ground report
which is going to
John C Dvorak: go before you
play that. I want to ask you
something because there's, I
think pieces have to be changed.
Why? And it was just mentioned
in passing, but we don't. But
the idea of using depleted
uranium, which poisons the the
gunners it poisons everybody,
but it's all being blowed up.
And powder pulverized used as as
ammunition in Ukraine is not you
know, this is not good for the
country, because because this
okay, they were trained to just
kill off the Ukrainians is
because their tests
Adam Curry: No, no, that whole
red region you see on that map
is filled with cluster bombs
mines, but you might as well
throw some depleted uranium in
there because that will be the
demilitarized zone, it will be
uninhabitable. I think that's
the idea. And if we kill a few
Ukrainians or Russians, and
nobody seems to care, because
this is this is about these
people personally. Blinken
Biden, this goes much deeper
before a Blinken showed up in
his train car to bring with a
billion dollars. This was the
headline, and surprisingly from
France 24 Maybe unsurprisingly,
since France and France
understands they're under attack
now is what they're like, Oh,
well, the Americans are screwing
us over here. This was the
headline
Unknown: Alexei Resnikoff has
been Ukraine's defense minister
since before the war broke out.
The military jacket scandal was
the ultimate corruption case his
ministry has had to face like in
previous scandals products, this
time jackets were ordered for an
initial price. But in the end,
Ukraine paid several times more
to come on top of this. It
appears the jackets are
completely useless. The order
was for winter jackets, but the
ones delivered from Turkey or
summer wants to minister denied
the allegations.
We'll discuss in the flood norm
was the opposite Cardinal has
one investigative journalist
said in one of his posts, the
ministry bought summer jackets
three times cheaper. And then
through a Harry Potter Magic
Stick operation. They turned
into winter jackets. This is not
true.
Certainly problem. This is just
the latest in several scandals
which isn't new for Ukraine. The
country ranks 116 out of 180 on
the international Corruption
Perceptions Index. Before the
jackets Ukrainian authorities
say there was food also
purchased for soldiers at a
price that is several times the
market price. There is also
widespread corruption linked to
military recruitments. The
people shown here are not
involved. 1000s of young
Ukrainians have tried to either
avoid or flee the battlefield.
Ukrainian investigators say
various officials have accepted
bribes to help them escape or
get medical exemptions
are already 112 criminal
proceedings against officials of
the recruitment centers 33
suspects
the most striking case may be
the one involving the
recruitment official in Odessa,
who use some of the money he
reportedly embezzled to buy this
villa in Spain.
Adam Curry: To everybody in
Europe who lives in Europe in
Poland in Vienna. They've seen
the rich Ukrainians that they
drove their Rolls Royces, their
Ferraris, everybody left the
country, they're all hanging out
having a good time. There's
money flowing everywhere.
There's huge real estate being
purchased. This was always the
most corrupt country in the
entire region. Everybody, I grew
up in Europe, everyone knew it.
This is not like a surprise. We
have a lawyer friend here in
Texas, who sent me the following
boots on the ground. This comes
from a good friend of his who
has relevant knowledge in the
field and significant exposure
to some of the players. He's a
well known investment banker
who's dealt with the biggest
business interests in Ukraine.
This experience has yielded
credible insights and most that
most people don't have. At the
risk of sounding paranoid. He's
asked me to withhold his name.
Well, I'm gonna take it as as
credible. I want to respect his
anonymity and simply relay his
insights for your consideration.
No one is looking for credit or
notoriety here. He's simply
offering your perspective that
the press will never adopt
because it divergence from the
narrative that Ukraine is above
reproach. It also highlights
American involvement in an
unflattering way. Until about a
decade ago, post Soviet
Ukrainian oligarchs think Igor
Kolomoisky Kolomoisky the guy
who owns all the media, the guy
who set up Zelinsky as the
president in the in the TV
series, how the actor became the
president and Victor Pinchuk,
these are all the guys behind
Burisma. These these are the
oligarchs of Ukraine. They
controlled Ukrainian natural
resources such as manganese
Ferro alloys key ingredient in
steel production. Political
events wrench these resources
from the oligarchs grasp, and
these kingpins now want their
assets back. Fortunately for
them, they had forged close
relationships with American
business interests and
politicians, among them Hunter
Biden who of course needs no
introduction. These cozy affairs
are less than ethically pure. My
friend's view admittedly, his
opinion but highly informed is
that these Ukrainian strong men
lobby their American business
and political associates to
bring NATO to Russia's doorstep
to facilitate the oligarchy
eventual recovery of their
former interests without Russian
meddling, but Russia did not
comply. My friend makes a
further suggestion that the
Biden administration's inability
to deter Russians has vexed
Kolomoisky who has now upped the
ante by divulging unsavory
information about American
players such as the Biden's
thereby firing a shot across the
bow of American politicians and
prompting the State Department
to denounce and discredit
Kolomoisky. Fast forward to
Kolomoisky has reported arrest
last week, along with American
attempts to extradite him to the
USA for prosecution. As time
passes, my friend's informed
perspective seems increasingly
credible. He's being protected.
Blinken is there to protect his
own as Blinken has a consulting
company, blink, all these people
are complicit. Every single one
of them. And now Now the big
boys are playing hardball. And
this is why more money needs to
go Oh, send Anthony over this
sense more mind. Don't worry.
We'll take care of it. They
think things are unraveling.
unraveling. And if you look at
Blinken space keys not they're
out of Oh, good job. Everybody
thinks those little red dots,
little blue dots on the red map.
He's there because he's afraid
they're afraid now that I take
this to be a good piece of boots
on the ground.
John C Dvorak: I like it. And
the funny thing is it has that
element of they want to
extradite that guy than the TV
guy up to the United States.
under what circumstance? Do we
have the We the umbrella?
Adam Curry: We don't
John C Dvorak: what laws of ours
did he break?
Adam Curry: Well, Ukraine is our
ally, of course, our ally,
John C Dvorak: which doesn't
mean that we can arrest our
solution.
Adam Curry: I agree. I agree.
This is so much theater. This is
about rich people here
destroying Europe about you know
stealing stuff. This all I mean,
the stealing stuff is the key
stealing stuff. I mean, look at
who has some of that land. Now,
Cargill, you know, we stole it
from those guys. They're like,
hey, hey, hey, we want this
back. Now, you only have to
think about Biden with this
billion dollars to you, you're
not going to get a billion
dollars it unless you fire the
prosecutor you could also read
as here's a billion dollars by
the prosecutor. Just it's just a
matter of positioning. And
they've got the dumbest peep
that also dumb
John C Dvorak: because it'll
blink and just look stupid.
Yeah.
Adam Curry: But all this has
been going on for so long.
Particularly with the complicit
nature of the media, which and I
see you brought the clips. I'm
kind of glad you did. Because I
was like, I couldn't even bring
myself to watch the whole thing.
But but somehow somehow Tucker
Carlson has taken it upon
himself to shatter nope to show
the world a I don't know, I
don't think this is about Obama
necessarily. It's more like,
look how how this is, if
Tucker's clean which I think we
have to question
John C Dvorak: that well, can I
throw another little wrench into
the Sure, sure. Do. We know that
Tucker's still not working for
Fox? We
Adam Curry: don't we've heard
nothing about the lawsuit. We
there's no
John C Dvorak: nothing about the
Joni million that he gets from
Fox anything. Is it possible
that they Tucker wanted to do
these get do some stuff that Fox
has now you can't really do it
on our network? Let's do this.
Adam Curry: Totally, totally
possible. And by the way, and
his
John C Dvorak: current set that
he's using looks very Fox like
Adam Curry: that's a good point.
John C Dvorak: Well, it does.
What
Adam Curry: got me is I could
have sworn I could have really
could have sworn that Larry
Sinclair had died. I'm so sure
that he had passed away. I don't
understand how I mean, I really
thought he had died. And I, and
I want you to play these clips
because there's stuff to be
discussed here. I think it's
more a message about mainstream
media than it is about Obama,
but maybe I'm wrong. But I just
want to bring some receipts here
for a moment. No agenda Show
Episode 250, August 2 2010 13
years ago. Let's go back into
them. Everybody. Come on with
me. Speaking of which, the Obama
gayness meme has been reignited.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, that's a
good one. Seriously, and what
did they owe to Obama's? Is it
the one that we see with the
gray hair or the one without the
gray hair?
Adam Curry: But it's, it's it's
really weird. Remember? That was
like couple years ago? Yeah,
there was some guy that Larry
Larry Sinclair,
John C Dvorak: but now okay.
He's a maniac.
Adam Curry: Now. Here it is.
It's very and this is very
interesting from the Washington
insider. President Obama and his
Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel are
lifetime members of the same gay
bathhouse and uptown Chicago.
According to informed sources in
Chicago's gay community. The
bathhouse man's country, caters
to old white men and has been in
business for some 30 years known
as one of Uptown Chicago's grand
old bathhouses. And this article
just got I mean, there's a lot
of people copying this. And
they're relating this back to
the blog blog blog boy of itch
trial. That apparently
John C Dvorak: this is maybe one
of those things. Boy, this is
holding on to.
Adam Curry: Exactly. Yeah,
apparently, in these tapes that
I guess we're not going to get
to hear. The whole thing is that
Obama was actually trying to get
his Senate seat for one of his
gay lovers. It just the plot
thickens. It just gets better
and better. And then there's no
there's a lot of stuff about ROM
that he always he only travels
with a male companion and they
go on vacation together kind of
like an Oprah Gail type thing.
We're going to so we unveiled
that there's a lot more behind
the Obama gay meme. There's
blood Goya that you got locked
up, there's the whole way that
President Obama came into his
Senate seat, which was also done
by a sex scandal involving the
lady from Deep Space Nine. And
you know, then you bring in Rahm
Emanuel. Then you bring in all
these jokes from Chicago. So
this, this may be much deeper,
it may be just, you know,
salaciousness on Tucker's part,
I'd love to hear what you think
about it with your QL.
John C Dvorak: You know, the
funny thing is Tucker didn't
bring up all those elements
could have been brought up into
this conversation. None of it
was
Adam Curry: Jerry Ryan was her
name. That's right. None of that
was brought up.
John C Dvorak: Wasn't No, it
wasn't. Right. It was yeah, it
Adam Curry: was Jerry Ryan.
She's the one her husband she
claimed that he had abused her
if I'm just shooting from the
John C Dvorak: years Jerry Ryan
Jerry, right? It was the Seven
of Nine. That's,
Adam Curry: that's the one Seven
of Nine. That's the one. It was.
It's I don't know anything about
it was deep state deep, deep
space, Voyager nine, whatever. I
eat
John C Dvorak: space, Voyager
nine,
Adam Curry: whatever. Yes. It
was Jerry Ryan. Seven of 9999.
Exactly. Cuz she was married to
anyway in the Yes. This. This
was the she was a part of that.
Okay, well,
John C Dvorak: I don't I don't
remember the details of that.
But there was a lot of intrigue.
That's for sure. And there's
Adam Curry: a swingers club,
remember? And he was she was the
guy who forced me into sex.
John C Dvorak: All right. She
didn't want to do any of that
stuff. Yeah. Which is crazy.
Adam Curry: I mean, come on.
party party.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, she, she
wants to be gang raped basic.
No. So I have four clips. And I
have thoughts about how she
wound five thoughts about some
of the commentary. There's a few
things Tucker didn't do. There
was targeted it was this was
targeting Obama to kind of an
extreme. The guy, the
credibility of this person is
questionable in a couple of
instances, because it doesn't
really make sense what he says
in some situation that we'll
have they have clips of that. So
let's start with clip one.
Unknown: asked me if it was
something that you were not
interested in. And you're right.
I've had guys that I've read
wrong. That would literally
John C Dvorak: stop I have to
set this one up. I can't just
he's talking about getting
Adam Curry: I'm sorry. Can I
just interrupt you for one
second? Because I just went into
my archive.
John C Dvorak: Another archive
clip No, no,
Adam Curry: no just archive of
stories. 20 16 ex Obama lover
Larry Sinclair mowed down by hit
and run. I tell you this guy was
dead as he did. Yes. He was
supposed to say he's dead.
Obama's alleged gay lover dead.
I don't understand where he came
from. How did they go?
John C Dvorak: Okay, well, I
should have brought that up to
Yeah,
Adam Curry: I mean, it's all
over the search. Okay, I'm
sorry. It is what it
John C Dvorak: says Larry
Sinclair, because the gay lover
that did die was the pastor's
Adam Curry: choir guy. Yes. Who
was shot in the church?
John C Dvorak: Yeah, that guy.
Yeah, that guy. And they talked
about that a little bit. I
didn't, I didn't include any of
it. They're here. They're
talking about his first meeting
with Obama in the back of the
limousine and how he did
whatever he did to kind of make
a pass at him. And then Obama
was all for it and had the crack
pipe. And they had, there was a
couple of problems. One, it was
like, Larry Sinclair's, I don't
know if people out there some
experts should tell me this. I
don't know if it's true. I
thought crack was crack. And it
was smoked, and not snorted. But
the way they he talks about he
snorted the crack and Obama
smoked it. So I thought that was
regular cocaine. That was snort
Adam Curry: it was medicinal
crack, John.
John C Dvorak: Well, medicinal.
Okay, so let's but anyway, so
he's in the limo. And he's
talking about how it's obvious
that Obama was used to this kind
of behavior. And
Unknown: if it was something
that you were not interested in,
and you're right, I've had guys
that I've read wrong, that would
literally try to break your hand
for her if you went in that
route. So it's not like this was
something that he wasn't into.
It's not something that he was
shocked by. Shocked by you don't
get excited, and you don't
unbutton your pants and you
don't just sit there and let it
happen. Yeah, so it wasn't it
definitely wasn't Brock's first
time. That much I'm absolutely
certain of.
And I would almost be one the
budget wasn't as lost. So, so
you performed oral sex on I did?
You did.
In the drivers up front. Yep.
And he's cool with this. The
driver
has the partition up hidden them
from my he didn't put it down
for any reason. I mean, he kind
of set up the whole thing for
this in the first week. Exactly.
And I have a funny feeling he
had no bones to pick with it as
far as what took place. Yeah.
Um, so what happened after
afterwards, I actually went back
to my hotel, I had specifically
asked that he dropped Barak off
first. But for some reason, he
and Barak chose that they would
drop me off at the hotel first,
and then he would take for up.
So Barack actually made the
drive out to Gurney, which is a
suburb, outside of Chicago. To
the hotel for me to be dropped
off what hotel was, it was the
comfort in Germany. Oh, it
sounds depressing. And well,
Adam Curry: why? You know, I'm
so surprised that there has to
be a reason behind this other
than, Oh, wow, you know, the
drugs and sex gay sex. Why would
you have
John C Dvorak: a Will you may
figure it out by the time we're
done. But I had to stop the clip
there. Because I thought that
the basic arrogance of Tucker,
to say that the comfort in which
is not a bad shame, to say, Oh,
that's horrible. Pressing. Yeah.
Oh, I went to the computer. Oh,
that sounds so depressed. He's
having he's eight anything that
wasn't like, you know, the four
seasons, you
Adam Curry: setting the stage
somehow?
John C Dvorak: And that's just
Tucker. I think Tucker was just
being himself there being he is
because he's not rich. Remember?
Yeah, he's not rich. He's only
got 100 million or 200 million
in the bank, which to him is not
rich. If you think you're not
rich with that kind of money.
You're snobby. You got something
wrong with you? Yeah. So let's
go to the second clip
Unknown: got dropped off. They
left. The next day was somewhat
interesting, because he ends up
showing up at my hotel room,
which I thought was somewhat
weird. But he wanted some more.
So when you say he showed up, he
just he showed up. I mean, I had
no warning. I was in the room.
There's a knock on the door. I
opened the door and he's
standing there. And he's
standing there with more coke
and he comes in and it was just
like a quick, you know, rehash a
rerun, from the night before.
Exact same program, exact same
programs. He's smoking again. So
Barack Obama smokes crack and
then you perform the sex on him.
And the like I said, The only
reason I had come out in about
it is I I had reached out to the
campaign even in 2007. Only
because I saw these kids getting
excited about Okay, wait, we'll
just adjust. So how did that
end? Like, same way?
Adam Curry: Happy Ending Tucker
obviously, I've always thought
this was very incredulous this
this part of Sinclair story.
Sinclair is not a good looking
guy. If you're gonna do all
this, you know, Obama's a pretty
good looking guy. Why would you
go and find this guy?
John C Dvorak: I don't know what
it looks like 25 years ago,
Adam Curry: well, he had teeth.
John C Dvorak: There was one
thing that you know, Tucker is
trying to do this interview and
the thing that stood out to me
and I don't want to be lewd
about it. But it's something
that that's noteworthy. And it's
and we know know about Clintons
member.
Unknown: Oh, yeah. Yeah. bent.
Yes.
John C Dvorak: Was there a
anchor doesn't ask the simple
question. And it was start like
this. I don't want to be lewd
about this. But is there
anything remarkable that you can
tell us about Obama's member?
Adam Curry: Well, you should be
running in the newsroom over
there, man. You're good. You're
good. You're good.
John C Dvorak: It would be that
easy to do. And just to say,
because you want to know, you
want to know a couple of
lascivious things. One is a
black guy. So as you represent
the the large black guy, God,
John, or does he represent a zit
did not large? You want? That's
a question that you have to ask
in these circumstances, if
Adam Curry: you're gonna do this
anyway, if you're gonna go the
blue cheese, do it. What I need
you please continue. I need to
understand why you think Tucker
is doing this at all. Why Does
anyone care? What is the we're
gonna
John C Dvorak: when we get to
the end? I think we should try
to figure it out. Okay. I do. I
still think it is a shot across
the bow by the CIA to tell Obama
to get out of the to back off on
a bun Biden, Biden. There's a
couple of things going on in the
administration. Right now. We're
Biden, supposedly, I doubt that
Jill Biden has COVID. I
Adam Curry: will agree with you
that that was going to come up
later. But I doubt she has COVID
too.
John C Dvorak: And they're
telling Biden to do this. His
messaging, I'm convinced of it.
I know you don't totally buy
into it. But let's go. They've
continued these clips.
Unknown: But I was back from
Mexico. But it was a strange
feeling sitting there watching
him walk across that stage and
realizing who he was. So what
did you do? You said, You
reached out to the campaign, why
didn't do anything in 2004. But
when he announced his run for
2008, I did reach out to the
campaign in late 2007. Because I
had seen a lot of these college
kids talking about how surreal
they were how there was a
candidate who was completely
honest about his entire life,
his drug use, you know, what he
did is when he was in school,
you know, the constant back and
forth. One minute is, yes, I did
cocaine when I was younger, or
No, I never did cocaine, but I
smoked weed. So I just simply
pointed out that all I was
asking was, Look, why don't you
just simply come out and say I
did coke and I've done it as
recently as 1999. You know, just
tell the truth. Put it out there
and be honest and let it stay as
the truth rather than this back
and forth. Never did hear
anything back from them
immediately had it? Who did you
reach out to? Do you remember I
reached out to actually David
Axelrod's office in Chicago. I'm
trying to remember the letters,
because it was actually three
letters.
And did you say I had sex with
Barack Obama?
This is the interesting part. My
first contact with the campaign
never mentioned the sex
whatsoever. That was actually
brought to my attention by
someone who eventually reached
out to me in late 2007. Claiming
to be with the campaign but
wasn't with the campaign. What
do you mean that was pointed out
to you never told anyone in the
Obama campaign you did sex with
burnout in 2007? No,
interesting.
John C Dvorak: But the news
Adam Curry: nursing Interesting.
John C Dvorak: Okay. This is not
credible. No, I agree. He says
he called got a hold of the
campaign but Axelrod to tell
them well, you know, Obama's not
being completely honest. And you
know, he's he's telling the kids
he smoked dope, but he shouldn't
be telling him they smoked
crack. And you know, of course
admitting to school rhymes
basically, himself. And this
doesn't make any sense. Nobody
would do this. If you're a
crackhead or a cocaine user.
You're not calling people up to
correct the record on some guy
was a politician. It's bullcrap.
Adam Curry: And I love how
Tucker just Oh, okay.
John C Dvorak: Oh, Tucker's all
into that. But again, this whole
thing seems scripted. There's
missing questions that could
have been asked. And I'm not a
fan of what, what went down
here.
Adam Curry: He didn't talk or
ask about his criminal record at
all.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, he Well, he
brought that up. And it he
brought up the fact that it was
exaggerated in some ways. And
that video was immaterial. The
whole thing was, was a very
dubious interview, go to the
next clip.
Unknown: And the opinion was, if
you're going to tell the story,
then you tell the whole story
and let the chips fall where
they may. So that's exactly what
I did. And she made a YouTube
video, by the way, I look, I
look for it last night couldn't
find it. That's because YouTube
gave access to my account to
someone shortly after the
polygraph test, and I was never
given access back to it before
the video was actually deleted.
Are you serious? Oh, yeah,
YouTube gave access to the
account and the video was
deleted. Microsoft gave access
to my Hotmail account and all of
my emails were circulating the
internet and vacation replies
were set up on my email telling
people that I was busy giving
blowjobs and will get back with
them. When I was done. And, man,
they wanted Obama to be
president. Yep. And they wanted
me to be the biggest fraud and
nutcase that ever existed. Okay.
John C Dvorak: I just played
this clip to let everyone know
that these big tech companies
Adam Curry: they're no good.
John C Dvorak: No, they had my
mail store was funny. The other
one is like he made a video you
had to upload it. That means you
have a video. Where's that
video? Okay, the upload was
taken down, but you still must
have the video. It's not you
didn't record it on YouTube.
There's no way of doing that. So
that's that another dubious
aspect to the story. I'm against
skeptical, because Oh, yeah,
they might they took it down.
And now it's gone forever. Well,
how does that work? How does
that work? Can somebody explain
to me how that works? Doesn't?
Do they go? Did they reach into
your house and grab it off your
camcorder? Or wherever you put
it?
Adam Curry: He's a crackhead. He
doesn't he didn't keep the keep
copies? He was
John C Dvorak: he snorter, he
never smoked corringham At least
that makes it listen these
clips, it makes a big
difference. So here we are. This
is the last clip. So
Unknown: I gotta ask you. I
mean, you know, I wasn't there.
I can only assess what you're
saying. I don't see any obvious
motive for you for gain
financial gain. You're not going
to get rich doing this. And in
fact, you haven't you've gotten
impoverished as a result of it.
But like if I'm a reporter, I
was a reporter at the time. I
remember thinking, Well, that's
an interesting story. But it
seemed like nobody in the media
wanted to follow up with you.
And some people like Ben Smith
at politico who's a liar and a
shill posing as a journalist. I
reread the piece last night that
he wrote saying, Oh, it's
ridiculous right off the first
graph. It's ridiculous these
claims, but I think I have an
answer for why a lot of
reporters did not want to follow
up. And I think it would have
something to do with what David
Axelrod told a old Chicago Sun
Times. Reporter or no. Chicago
Tribune reporter, John Crewdson.
Axelrod had been a reporter in
Chicago into politics while John
Crewdson worked for the Chicago
trivia, and John Kreutz and
actually came to Duluth,
Minnesota and sat down with me
and talked with me, and John
Kreutz, and had told me point
blank that before he had flown
out that he had spoken to
Axelrod and that Axelrod had
told him that they were aware of
who I was, and then it was their
intentions to destroy me. And
that if any reporter had
mentioned me to them, they would
be completely cut off, and that
outlet would be completely cut
off from access to the Obama
campaign for the duration of the
year. So I think that had a lot
to do with why reporters didn't
bring things up to the campaign,
because everybody wanted access
to you know, the new savior.
Nobody wanted to be blackballed,
and denied access. to a historic
campaign.
Adam Curry: Okay, that's that's
kind of Tucker's whole thing
that I believe
John C Dvorak: that robbed. Part
of the story is probably mostly
true. And I agree with a store
campaign thing, because that's
what the left was just all
everybody was so jacked up about
Obama, because he's a black guy,
kind of, he was going to be the
first black president. And this
is the greatest thing that's
ever happened to this country. I
Adam Curry: interject something
there. What he got his attention
when he spoke at the DNC a year
before? No, is four years before
he was before I'm sorry, four
years before. And that was the
first year that they had
bloggers come in. And they were
scheduling all the bloggers to
have a chat with this with the
future of the party. And I know
this because Dave Weiner was
there. And he said it was
electric. It was Dave Weiner,
John C Dvorak: who invented this
is Oh, head over heels for
Obama. It was unbelievable. He
had a podcast for a while. And
it's all he talked about. Yeah,
but 2004 I saw that speech in
real time. And watched it as he
did get delivered it. And I said
this guy this guy is this is the
guy. Yeah. Oh, it was obvious
that they were gonna.
Adam Curry: Yeah, that's my
point. That's my point is it was
all a setup. And they brought
brought he was going to be the
internet president, if you
remember. But I remember that.
Yeah. It's going to be the
internet present. Oh, yes. And
people. Oh, we might even have.
Yeah. And all we got was a
Twitter account that he didn't
that he didn't handle. And we
got the what was that? Where you
could have your say.gov or
whatever. And if there were over
here,
John C Dvorak: remember the
promises that yeah, we're not
going to pass any bills until
they're online?
Adam Curry: You could take that
you can take that to the bank.
You got a baby? Yeah. Take that
to the bank. Oh, yeah. At least
seven days. Internet president.
Yeah. What was that? What was
that thing? It was like a
feedback doc, or something? And
if there was, if there were
50,000 people who signed up,
then they would do something
about it. Yeah. It was a great.
Alright, so So Okay, your your
takeaway from this, and I'll
give you mine.
John C Dvorak: I'm still
thinking that this is a message
a messaging. They also mentioned
Axelrod a couple of times, for
some reason. So I suppose he's
somewhat involved. This is a
message from headquarters, to
stop doing what you're doing
Obama, and let Biden do his own
thing. Because we've got to move
up, we've got to move him, we're
not going to keep him in there
any longer. And he's going to
have to like, sink or swim. We
don't, he doesn't need you in
the background, doing whatever
you're doing. That's my
thinking. And that's the end.
This is like, this is message
number two, guy, there's more to
come if you want to keep this
up.
Adam Curry: That's very, that's
a very credible line of
thinking, I will just give you
the alternative thinking, which
doesn't mean I disagree with
what you're saying. But I think
even back in the 10th, or the
11th. We were probably talking
about Obama in some modicum of
disrespect, probably saying, one
of these days, we're just going
to come out and he's going to be
the first gay president for real
and he'll say it. And that was
accentuated two weeks before
before her death by Joan Rivers
when queried by the Howard Stern
shows, I think it was stuttering
John outside of her apartment in
New York, where she had just
officiated the first gay wedding
in the state of New York.
Unknown: Do you think that the
country will see the first the
United States to see the first
gay president or the first woman
president Obama?
So let's just come down.
Now the show is a trend. I'm
sorry, she's a what?
John C Dvorak: Transgender? We
call Oh my gosh.
Adam Curry: Mind you, in
hindsight, the word transgender
was not a word at the time. It
was not a word but was a word.
It wasn't it was a it wasn't a
thing. It wasn't word it wasn't
a thing. The only other well,
there's there's three, three
possibilities. So I think yours
is very, very possible. Or is
just That's right. It's not who
we are. I'm a homosexual. And
Michelle is transgender and
she'd run Big Mike 2024. Yeah.
John C Dvorak: You holding on to
the dream, dude.
Adam Curry: They locked us down
and forced shots on us anything
is possible in this world.
Anything. The only other thing
is that Tucker is just desperate
to do dumb SEC stuff reporting.
I mean, who else cares? Why do
we care distraction, distraction
of the year this of the year. He
doesn't need to interview Blair
Sinclair, who was supposedly Did
I hit and run? I've said this
myself many times on the show I
was convinced he was dead then
he shows up all of a sudden some
dude with no teeth
Unknown: I don't know
John C Dvorak: it could be an
actor we don't know anything be
Adam Curry: a mask for all we
know a toothless mask. I'm I
swear. I think I've even said
it's too bad Larry Sinclair's
dead because he can't come on
say anything anymore. It's
really crazy. The world's gone
crazy. It's gone crazy. So
John C Dvorak: let's talk about
Biden. Yeah, yeah, let's do
that. Yeah. And I have two clips
just about the COVID. Yeah. And
I clip one and this one. This
one bothers me. It's another one
of these things. I am obviously
bothered by the littlest of
things when it comes to these
these people what people say.
And this one is like, I've never
heard this before in my life,
when you get to be old. And you
start hearing things as what are
they saying this? This is the
clip one that uses the word
introduces the word for some
unknown reason. Instead of using
the word schedule, they use the
word cadence. And three
different people use it.
Unknown: And a while sounds like
he's gonna continue to get
tested on a regular cadence,
though without specifying what
that cadence what mean, and
today the White House press
secretary was also pressed on
what seems to be some coughing
by the President on Monday.
Watch, just wondering if he had
any other symptoms or if there's
any concern about power on that?
No, no symptoms at all. On a
regular cadence. regular cadence
is up to really in consultation
with this physician, I can tell
you right now as I said, all
travelers are certainly going to
test right before they head out
to India that's including the
president.
Adam Curry: Cadence This is
John C Dvorak: so why are they
using this word? Forget to look
it up and read the definition to
see why it's distinct. What? And
it's never been used before in
this in this I've never
Adam Curry: I've never heard it.
Let's go to the Cambridge
dictionary. Just to make sure we
get something. Cadence is
usually the hardest. I'm bubba.
Cadence. I'm sorry. This is
regular rise and fall of the
voice. Let me look at Merriam
Webster, they always change
things. Okay, the beat time or
measure of rhythmical motion or
activity. So I guess they would
say the cadence is his regular
testing, perhaps rhythmic slug
less regular testing. Regular
and rich see this the third
definition, regular and repeated
pattern of activity. Then
actually a falling inflection of
voice is way down the list.
They've changed the meaning of a
word yet again. They I don't
know this is this is a good
question. Not great, but it's a
good question.
John C Dvorak: Great. It's good.
You hear it? And it's like
you're, it's it's unusual that
you? I mean, that's what we do
on the show. We pick this stuff
up because it's got to have some
hidden meaning, or there's
something going on or why are
you using this word, lady? Yeah.
Adam Curry: Okay, what else? Do
you have that bothered you?
John C Dvorak: I know I got the
other clip, which is the
normalized clip. Yeah, the Biden
clip.
Adam Curry: The Summit. Yeah,
here we go.
Unknown: The White House today
would not tell us if there's any
contingency plans made in case
Biden tested positive for COVID.
But it did depend on the
possibility that Biden might
have to attend the G 20. Summit.
Virtually we've seen various
leaders various times
participate virtually in events.
Biden said on Monday that he's
disappointed that China's
shooting ping will not attend
the G 20. Summit the way now
it's really unclear if Biden
will become the third world
leader to have to be at least
physically absent at the summit
after both Russia's Vladimir
Putin as well as China shooting
ping and pulled out from the
summit.
Adam Curry: Okay, so the
conclusion I think as you dinged
your bell is that Jill pretends
to have COVID So the Biden might
have something can't go to the
summit because it's so
embarrassing that Zhi Jing ping
is not going to show up.
John C Dvorak: And neither is
Putin. Now the thing, there's a
couple of things. He's already
skipped the egg, which isn't
really been reported much, but
there was a big AZ an S E. Meet
up in Indonesia, a meetup. It
was a big drinking meetup in
Indonesia, and he skipped out on
that. And it was like very
controversial amongst
international circles, because
he skipped out on that, and then
he's gonna skip out on this. It
looks like now there's two
reasons to skip out one well,
well, it says Jesus I couldn't
be more important. Like it'd be
maybe they're gonna blow up the
place and kill everyone like in
the old gangster movie where the
one gangster sets everyone up
and kills the group. That's
possible. And so he doesn't want
to be there because he doesn't
want to get killed. Or he's
already so damned in it in
feeble that he can barely hold
luck around and
Adam Curry: my Obama theory is
crazy, but you're talking about
them blowing up the world
leaders. Okay, all right.
John C Dvorak: Terrorists, how
Adam Curry: about this. So,
Karina, Abdullah, jump here,
Jabbar whatever. Nice little
little skit she performed with a
shill a shill, journalist in the
White House press group. As we
all saw, that Joe Biden took off
his mask. Oh, he took off his
mask. Don't call it a comeback.
COVID. On the way back, we've
got to start programming
people's minds. He took off his
mask. And she's going to explain
why he took off the mask. And
and this is why I think it was a
setup question. It
simultaneously explains why he
like a demented old feeble man
walked out of the ceremony.
John C Dvorak: Everybody talking
about the Situ This is the image
he gives the guy just the
background or I don't you this
is something you have to
actually see. And we couldn't
really explain. He's giving the
Medal of Honor. And this is in
the newsletter to some guy who's
at one, it seems to have a lot
more going on in buying it at.
And he wraps them thing around
his neck. You know? Barely, Yes,
yep, barely. And then he looks
around and staggers off the
stage and walks out of there.
Well, then the old and the 4081
year old guy, the captain army
captain. He's looking around
left and right. And he's got a
kind of an earth look on his
face. And what happened?
Adam Curry: And this is why I
love this little theatrical
performance that KGP does with
this. I don't know who it is.
Because instead of saying, Hey,
why did he walk off like a
demented old man. It's like,
hey, we saw you took his mask
off, listen to how this spins
into a beautiful explanation.
Unknown: CDC guidelines for
people who are exposed to COVID
say that you should wear high
quality masks, anytime you're
around others inside your home
or indoors in public. The
president of course, did wear
that mask in the Medal of Honor
ceremony, but then took it off
and didn't put it back on was
that mistake.
So look, I'm gonna be I'm gonna
share a couple of things with
all of you here. And just start
with what the ceremony was all
about. Because it's incredibly
important. The President took
off his mask, as I said he would
to deliver incredibly powerful
remarks about this Captain
Captain Taylor, and what he did
in service to our nation. And we
wanted to honor the captain. And
for a brief time afterwards, he
also didn't have his mask on as
you just laid out. And he left
as planned as it was planned. He
left when there was a pause in
the program in order to minimize
to minimize his close contact
with attendees who were who are
about to participate in a
reception. And I you all
reported that notice that he
left when there was a pause in
the program, because again, he
wanted to minimize certainly his
impact on folks who were there.
Adam Curry: Beautiful. Well
done. No, they
John C Dvorak: did a follow up
to that as well. He's already
tested negative for COVID. So
what's he worried about? No,
Adam Curry: there's no follow
up. This is all theater. This is
dumb. This is just I don't know,
I need to do some COVID here
because they're ramping up and
we need to be aware of what's
happening. We just need to show
it to everybody because before
you know we're gonna be like,
Oh, God, you Oh.
Unknown: It was COVID that
forced Metallica to postpone
tonight's concert in Glendale,
Arizona.
Adam Curry: Oh COVID cancels
Metallica. The heavy metal Gods
Unknown: singer James Hetfield
reportedly struggled with his
voice in Friday's performance.
The band later posting a photo
of his positive COVID test
concert has been rescheduled for
next Saturday.
Overnight. First Lady Jill Biden
testing positive for COVID A
year after she last battled the
virus. The White House says the
72 year old is experiencing mild
symptoms and will remain at the
Biden's home in Delaware.
As you can see what me is not
here she has COVID is back. It's
back but she's on the mend.
She's on the tail end and she
probably back this week.
Adam Curry: So yeah, she'll be
back. Whoopi has got it to
Hatfields got it and
Unknown: the President was with
the First Lady yesterday he will
be masking while indoors and
around people in alignment with
CDC guidance. And as as has been
the practice in the past, the
President will remove his mask
when sufficiently distanced from
others indoors and one out
outside as well.
Adam Curry: Okay, so you heard
James Hetfield posted a picture
of his COVID test. Don't worry,
we've rescheduled for a week
from now because I guess you
know, this new crazy variant.
You'll be ready in a week or you
know, it's okay to reschedule
seems kind of sketchy to me but
the test is the main point of
the message. James with
Unknown: cases on the rise, some
retailers are running out of
tests. Walgreens tell CBS News,
we are seeing greater demand
which may cause temporary and
isolated shortages.
Adam Curry: If you want to
create demand. The first thing
you got to say is we're running
out oh no, you better go get
some tests. And don't worry if
you can't find any doctors are
Unknown: also warning don't
throw out expired add home
testing kits, because the FDA
has extended when certain brands
expire. The agency has posted a
list of new expiration dates on
its website. Don't worry,
Adam Curry: they're so good.
They're so good. They can even
handle the new variant which we
don't have a vaccine for because
the old vaccine is just not good
enough. But we have a test test
works and everything the test is
great.
Unknown: You may have noticed
cases of COVID are ticking up
again. The news is learned that
new vaccine booster shots could
be available next week after CDC
approval even as many have put
COVID in the rearview mirror.
Here's Tom Costello.
The American seniors are in
Ireland to soak in Irish music.
They got the music, but six out
of 20 also got COVID News ISIS
are popping up around the world
and across the US including
First Lady Dr. Joe Biden.
President Biden criticized for
removing his mask while awarding
the Medal of Honor to an 81 year
old veteran after 150,000
hospitalizations in January that
dropped to 6300 in June. The CDC
reports hospitalizations are
rising again, more than 17,000
As of August 26th far below
pandemic levels but a reminder
say experts COVID may be here to
stay the sickest.
COVID Patients are certainly
older, Emil compromised. They
have primary pulmonary disease
like emphysema and the
unvaccinated but the country
remains
Adam Curry: and the unvaccinated
it sounds to me like a lot of
people who were vaccinated who
may be older. That you know
remember you promised that after
it was 95% effective 75% or 40%.
It was not effective. It doesn't
help you. It doesn't stop you
from getting it or spreading it
but you won't go to the hospital
and you won't die. And now it
doesn't seem to be doing that
either. vited
Unknown: over masks and
vaccines. The FDA is now
expected to approve updated
COVID Booster data as soon as
Friday available as soon as
midweek. Madrona and Pfizer say
their new vaccines new effective
against the new ba 280 6x has
appeared in Michigan, New York,
Ohio and Virginia everywhere.
Meanwhile, health agencies
report an uptick in the RSV
virus. Children especially now
in Florida and Georgia. The FDA
recently approved a new RSV
vaccine for small children and
expectant mothers.
And Tom back to COVID. For a
moment what are health experts
telling people about testing?
You know, those test kits that
many people have in their home
state should pick up the newest
COVID variants. And even if that
test has expired, may still be
viable. The FDA has been
extending the expiration dates,
you can check whether yours is
still valid on the FTAs website
last year. All right.
Thank you, please. Alright, so
Adam Curry: we know the formula
the formula is start creating a
little bit of a little bit of
angst. Tell people to test the
testing is the big thing was
always test test. So you gotta
test don't worry if you've got
an old test, just test I'm sure
it just test you got to test, go
get the new test the boosters
coming, get the test and then we
have to psychologically scare
everybody. pummel, pummel, yes
by a visual cue the visual cue
to remind you which is it this
is right out of the MK Ultra
playbook. We need to show you
the mask keep flashing the mask
as long as you keep seeing the
mask, you're going to think
COVID You're going to think I'm
scared. Whether you believe in
it or not you even you you're
going to be thinking about even
if you if you like us think it's
all bull crap. Oh, there's
another mask and it's elicits a
response even for people who are
not into it like ah, you stupid
masker. It creates division and
they're out to make it happen.
CNN leading leading leading
this. This is the Smerconish
interview. I'll set it up here
with his intro. There's an

lead story at CBS News This
Morning. COVID hospitalizations
on the rise as US enters Labor
Day weekend. The past several
weeks I've seen reports from all
over the country have a rise in
cases and yes, the CDC reports
COVID-19. hospital admissions
are up more than 19% in the most
recent week,
Adam Curry: which means what to
what? unimportant. It's 19%.
That sounds like a fifth, but it
could be five people. This is
the psychological warfare being
espoused expounded on the
American people
Unknown: and a few school
districts. This is even led to
canceled classes and sporting
events. A handful of companies
and schools have responded to
outbreaks on their premises by
reinstating mask mandates among
them several hospital systems
including including Kaiser
Permanente in Northern
California College in Atlanta
Dillard University in DeMonte I
think he went to Siena Lions
Gate film studio in Santa
Monica. But so far so far, those
have been the few exceptions.
And this graph shows how the
current rise rationalizations
compares to past searches. We've
got a graph less than half the
numbers this time last year and
still lower than they've been
for about 80% of the pandemic.
But if things get worse, it may
be hard to get people to revert
to an abundance of caution.
According to Gallup in the first
two years, public confidence in
the US healthcare system has
dropped from 44% to 34%. And
Donald Trump took to truth
social to again make the issue
political, accusing the latest
outbreak to be hype designed to
impact the 2024 election.
Adam Curry: So it's all in
there. Everything you need is in
there, but we're rolling it out.
This is Walter Reed Bethesda
Hospital, which is a military
run hospital. Every single
person in this in this
commercial is wearing a mask.
You'll hear it they're wearing a
mask and they're all in uniform.

I wear a mask. I wear a mask.

important stuff yes
John C Dvorak: well the

Adam Curry: we are saying but
I'm telling you that most people
they their big event this year
was the Barbie movie. Okay, so
these people are not okay let me
not like you and me. They're out
there and they're just oh crap
it's oh it's it's here to stay.
John C Dvorak: Barbie movie Oh
mascot
Adam Curry: for the Barbie movie
so if you want if you want to
complete the circle, you've got
to bring in the expert
unmasking.
John C Dvorak: Did I talk about
the video? I think I posted it I
know agenda social with a guy
and he's got one of the sniffers
one of these devices you use in
mining and elsewhere.
undetermined I didn't bad air I
didn't see it. In fact you can
buy these after I saw this I'm
gonna get one of these because I
always like to have these little
devices and I'm gonna get one
they have on Amazon for about 40
bucks and it is like an
emergency you stick it in like
an area you're gonna go to if he
if the air is not breathable as
dangerous good honks the horn
basically at you and says hey,
no go in there is terrible. So
he takes him puts a mask on and
sticks the little probe under
the mask. Gives the alarm off.
No, no it is bad air and It is
bad air, you're breathing your
own effluent you're breathing
out and breathing it back in and
out. And then this can't be
Elfi.
Adam Curry: So I'm trying to
think maybe I should play the
Fauci super clip about masks
first, and then we'll go to his
interview on CNN with
Smerconish. This is a perfect
super clip, which gives you all
the messaging we received from
Anthony Fauci over the three
year COVID. Period. And before
John C Dvorak: you play that,
because you're gonna play this
merch ish thing. Yeah. I thought
Fauci was retired. Now, what's
he doing on CNN,
Adam Curry: he's the messenger
of death,
Unknown: people should not be
walking around with masks, let
me just state for the record
that masks are not theater,
wearing a mask might make people
feel a little bit better, and
masks are protected. And we're
not providing the perfect
protection that people think
that it is, there has not been
any indication that putting a
mask on and wearing a mask for a
considerable period of time has
any deleterious effects. There
are unintended consequences.
People keep fiddling with the
mask and they keep touching
their face, then can you get
some sweats and sort of staying
inside their horse, you do not
need to wear a mask indoors, if
in fact, you've been vaccinated,
we're glad that you're
vaccinated. But in a situation
where you have people indoors,
particularly crowded, you should
wear a mask. So even if you are
vaccinated, you should wear a
mask if in fact, you are
vaccinated, fully vaccinated,
you are protected. And you do
not need to wear a mask outdoors
or indoors. When the children go
out into the community. You want
them to continue to wear masks,
you know, if you look at
children outside, particularly
when they with the family of
walking down the street playing
a game or what have you don't
have to wear a mask. The
pediatric the Academy of
Pediatric actually makes that
recommendation that children
should be wearing masks from two
years old onward. And you're
asking now if your child is a
member of your household, can
you walk out those with your
child without a mask? According
to that shot? The answer is yes.
But the child can't not to be to
beat it to death. Yes, yes. Now
the CDC says I mean, I think
I've got this right. One mask is
better than zero masks. Two
masks is better than one mask,
but you don't have to have
double masks. Is that right? I
mean,
it became clear that cloth
coverings that you didn't have
to buy in a store that you could
make yourself were adequate and
that he wanted to fit. So one of
the ways you could do it, if you
would like to is put a cloth
mask over which actually here
and here and here where you can
get leakage in is much better
contain.
Are you a double masker Dr.
Fauci.
Adam Curry: So that's just a
little little bit to show you of
the lies. confusing message
John C Dvorak: is just one it's
Adam Curry: just contradicts
contradiction, believable
contradiction. Thank you clip
collector for doing that, Steve.
But
John C Dvorak: I want to mention
something here, which I forgot
about until I heard that clip.
Do you remember that moment,
there was this thing? And he
made a point of it? Oh, and the
problem with a massive fiddle
with the touch their faces is
tight. If you touch your face,
yep, you're gonna die. You're
gonna die. Because I guess you
touch your face in the low COVID
thing walks across your skin, or
something. I don't know what
that was all about. But I
remember Trump making some
comment about it saying Well, I
kind of missed that. You know,
he's joking about touching your
face that's touch your face
thing was like, okay, so that
that was weird. So
Adam Curry: the, the, the
complex, it's just one big
complex. Everybody's in on this
now. It's for the elections.
It's for the it's for the
pharmaceutical companies. It's
for power. It's for the Democrat
party, you know, so they can
identify their members. It's for
control. The message is Hey,
hey, you know, we we don't
recommend any, any any like
mandates. You don't have to take
your your booster shot. You
don't have to wear masks, but
you know, the private sector
might might do that. By the way.
Fauci was not the one who
recommended the lockdowns. First
Unknown: of all, I didn't
recommend locking anything down
and the record will show Neal
that we didn't recommend
shutting everything down. I
recommended to the President
that we shut the country down.
Adam Curry: Oh, I'm sorry,
contradiction after
contradiction. These people are
liars. And now we have to start
it all off with Michael
Smerconish and Anthony Fauci.
Unknown: Joining me now to
discuss is Dr. Anthony Fauci.
He, of course, is the former
director of the National
Institute of Allergy and
Infectious Diseases. Dr. Fauci
Nice to have you back. How
worried are you that people will
not follow advice to wear masks,
if big if if we get to that?
Well, Michael,
that's a very good question. If
we get to that, I mean, we're
starting to see a
Adam Curry: surge of cases you
want to have a look It gets a
survey. It's a
Unknown: survey about an 18 or
19% increase in
hospitalizations. Oh, certainly
going up commonality
John C Dvorak: with 19%. Yeah.
Adam Curry: Oh, yeah. All right,
yeah. scripted. Oh, it's totally
scripted. This is all a script
in a
Unknown: 19% increase in
hospitalizations. Certainly
going in the wrong direction
with looks like a late summer
and into the fall surge. How bad
it's gonna get we don't know, as
you know, this is a very
unpredictable virus has shown us
that, oh, it's
Adam Curry: a very unpredictable
virus. Boy, I thought we had it
under control
Unknown: over the last three and
a half years. I am concerned
that people will not abide by
recommendations. We're not
talking about mandates or
forcing anybody but oh, we have
a situation No, no, no, where
the volume of cases in society
gets to a reasonably high level,
particularly the vulnerable,
those who are elderly, and those
with underlying conditions are
going to be more susceptible and
vulnerable. If they do get
infected. To get severe disease
leading to hospitalization. We
know that
Adam Curry: they're what what
happened to your your vaccine
that said, you don't have to go
to the house. That's
Unknown: a fact. So if we've
seen that, so I would hope that
if in fact, we get to the point
where the volume of cases is
such an organizations like the
CDC recommend, CDC doesn't
mandate anything. I mean,
recognize that's recommended
people wear masks, I would hope
that they abide by the
recommendation of taking to
account to themselves and to
their families. And again, we're
not talking there's forcing
anybody to do anything.
Adam Curry: It's important that
we it's tedious. I know. But
it's important because he is
giving us the script so we can
look out for it. And be aware
every it's going to so you're
going to hurt your family. This
is killing grandma. It's just a
recommendation you should abide
by it
Unknown: totally understood.
There is a perception out there
by many how many I don't know
Republicans that they don't
work, and that the data
concludes that they didn't work
in the first go round respond to
that on masks.
Yeah. Well, that's not so I
mean, when you're talking about
at the population level,
Adam Curry: that listen, this is
this is tricky. He says that's
not true. When you're talking at
the population level,
Unknown: that the data are less
strong than knowing that if you
look on a situation as an
individual, protecting
themselves or protecting them
from spreading it, there's no
doubt that masks work. Different
studies give different
percentages of advantage of
wearing it. But there's no doubt
that the weight of the studies
and there have been many studies
indicate the benefit of wearing
masks.
Adam Curry: He just said
nothing. He just said there's
studies that say yes and no on a
population level, no but
individual level, you know, your
own personal choice. Yes,
Unknown: I'm going to refer to
one of them. You've heard about
it before I heard about it from
a number of radio callers. Bret
Stevens in the Times talked
about Cochrane put that on the
screen. The Cochrane report. The
most rigorous and comprehensive
analysis of scientific studies
conducted on the efficacy of
masks for reducing the spread of
respiratory illness, including
COVID-19, was published last
month. Its conclusions, said Tom
Jefferson, the Oxford
epidemiologist who is the lead
author were unambiguous. There
is just no evidence that they
masks make any difference. He
told the journalist my en
DiMasi, full stop. But wait,
hold on, what about the n 95?
Masks, as opposed to the lower
quality surgical or cloth masks?
Makes no difference? None of it?
He said, Well, what about the
studies that initially persuaded
policymakers to impose mask
mandates? They were convinced by
non randomized studies, flawed
observational studies, how do we
get beyond that finding of that
particular review?
Adam Curry: Do you think it can
do it? Do you think he can
convince us that this report the
biggest report, the report that
was this definitive report
definitive Gold Standard Top of
the line can Fauci refute it?
Unknown: Yeah, but there are
other studies, Michael, that
show a level for individual when
you're talking about the effect
on the epidemic of the pandemic
as a whole. That was a whole
data or less strong, talk about
as an individual basis of
someone protecting themselves,
protecting themselves. You see,
it's
Adam Curry: about you protecting
yourself and protecting your
family as a whole. They don't
work but for you, personally,
you you human resource, they
will work,
Unknown: spreading it to others.
There's no doubt that there are
many studies that show that
there is an advantage when you
took a broad population level
like the Cochrane study, the
data are less firm with regard
to the effect on the overall
pandemic. But we're not talking
about that we're talking about
an individual's effect on their
own safety. That's a bit
different than the broad
population.
Adam Curry: Bullshit. Yeah.
Okay. Oh, yeah, he's good. Let's
wrap it up,
Unknown: given the public
sentiment that I shared at the
outset, people saying there's no
way I'd mask up again, a final
thought from Dr. Fauci. If it
comes to it, we hope it doesn't.
But if it comes to it might a
better approach say, Let's
protect the most vulnerable and
allow others to lead their
normal lives. Final word is
yours. Well, yeah, I
mean, mandating I don't think is
gonna happen. They may be local
mandates. I keep thinking that
the federal government is going
to mandate that you wear a mask?
Adam Curry: No, no, no, it's not
going to be the federal
government to be local, it'd be
your local, probably be some
businesses, but it's just not
going to be local.
Unknown: That's not going to
happen. But there may be
individual institutions, or
organizations that are going to
say, if you want to come to
work, you've got to wear a mask.
There's nothing that the federal
government can do about that. If
people want to do it locally, I
think people need to realize it
is extremely unlikely that
you're going to see a mandate,
for example, from the CDC, which
has no authority to mandate
anything with regard to mass,
they can only recommend it. So
people essentially, for the most
part can do what they want to
do, based on their own
evaluation of their own risks.
Adam Curry: Now, completely
untrue. Insurance companies will
not allow businesses to continue
without mask mandates for their
businesses. Airlines are going
to mandate it for travel, bus
companies, it's going to be
everything is there. It's just
going to happen again, is the
nature of it. And I love that
people say well, oh, no, no, I
don't people are gonna fight it.
Yeah, they will. But then it's
the same trick. You can't work,
you can't travel. It and this is
setup. It's a setup. And I
honestly don't know what to do
about it. I don't see a way out
complain and complain. I mean,
Scott Adams had kind of the best
idea. He's like, the first
airline that mandates it,
everyone has to boycott it,
which also won't happen.
John C Dvorak: No, it won't
happen. It's idealistic.
Adam Curry: So we need to come
up with something like Invasion
of the Body Snatchers or
something when you see someone
with with a mask or something
we've got to come up with,
John C Dvorak: is that gonna
happen you do anything you do is
did you can the black market
come on set which is to find
somebody to produce those blue
surgical masks that are so
porous that you really can
breathe? No, no. put the mask on
and suffer.
Adam Curry: Howard Stern is
already blocked locking down in
his studio again, the man has
barely been out for three years.
He's going back into his into
his basement COVID COVID He's
deathly afraid of COVID Even his
wife is pissed at him now.
Unknown: According to him,
John C Dvorak: this level of, of
freakish paranoia. I mean,
there's plenty of the I would be
more concerned with getting that
in the newer forms of
tuberculosis that are immune to
all the treatments than that and
COVID I mean, everybody in the
family here has had COVID and no
one has suffered it JC had it
when it first showed up when it
was really deadly. And
everybody's had it sent me the
problem
Adam Curry: the problem and the
sad thing I'm hearing around
here and you know from family
around the country is people who
were boosted not just one shot
but had boosters they're
catching COVID and they're
getting pretty sick
John C Dvorak: yeah yeah they
ruin their
Adam Curry: ruin their immune
system and this is this is this
is pretty important
John C Dvorak: It seems to me
you're gonna I mean if you ruin
your immune system you're get
you're susceptible to just about
anything that comes along
Unknown: anything yeah yeah
Adam Curry: I don't know we I'd
love to I wish I had a ready
answer. There's nothing we can
do except just not comply and be
be kind about it. I'm sorry. You
John C Dvorak: can't I do when I
see people all over the place
wearing masks. I give them a
look askance
Adam Curry: I think I think I'm
just gonna say I'm sorry your
mind controlled
John C Dvorak: now suddenly you
see what that journey did no
one's gonna know what you're
talking about a
Adam Curry: maybe just go up and
lick him on the cheek.
John C Dvorak: Spit in their
face mask go stop this.

troll to your heart's content.
We also recommend you drop your
legacy podcast app because all
of the podcast you'll oh man,
did you hear? Did you read this
article in the Wall Street
Journal about Spotify?
John C Dvorak: I did not.
Adam Curry: Oh, my goodness. So
the Wall Street Journal wrote
this article. Let me see. I
think there was an MSN version.
Of course I'm hitting a paywall.
Right now, the title of Spotify
is $1 billion podcast bet turns
into a serial drama.
John C Dvorak: If he I saw the
title I'd ever read the article.
But what more do you need than
that title? Well,
Adam Curry: there's there's some
interesting little tidbits in
here. The main one being let me
see I have it here on MSN. I
think the main one being that
they were paying for some
podcasts and was not specified
which ones some of them they
were paying $250,000 In episode.
Wow. And that's not even for
like a like a big name person
who was hosting it. Now it's
like
John C Dvorak: then I mean,
Kenny judgment was going on over
there.
Adam Curry: I don't know. Well,
they you know, they laid off the
entire podcast division. Yeah,
John C Dvorak: for good reason.
If they're gonna throw money
away. Yeah.
Adam Curry: So you know, the
they have it's an advertiser
problem adverts, you cannot
monetize the network. How many
times I have to tell you this. I
am now do podcast one. Podcast,
one is was supposed to go public
this week. They're part of their
spin off of live one. And they
didn't even go public. And the
main reason being that, you
know, they acquired this, like
this caste company, which had
stopped paying its podcasters
advertising money they were
owed. And now people out there
like to Vaughn are doing video
saying, hey, these guys, they
didn't want to pay me they
offered me stock. People This is
not the way to go. The all you
need a modern podcast app that
has value for value written all
over it, you can hit our PayPal
account all of this stuff to
just support the podcast that
you like. It's that simple. If
everybody supported us with a
couple of bucks a month, you'd
we wouldn't have an app that
have a donation segment. It will
be so beautiful. Instead, we
have to ask and ask and ask and
I don't mind asking because we
give you the value upfront you
can download it. You can
download this podcast anywhere
you want. No charge. There's no
99 cents not behind a paywall.
There's no premium content
you're not getting the you have
to pay for the premium is right
here up front. We give you the
premium stuff right here.
John C Dvorak: The whole thing
is premium. We are one
Adam Curry: yeah, we're all
we're all premium all the time.
And all we ask is you return
some value time, talent or
treasure we love our artists who
Blackseed so let me just remind
you that get a new podcast that
podcast apps.com where you can
see all of this artwork but we
always have one that we that we
attribute to the podcast is the
album art. And we we put it in
the mp3 we put it everywhere
that we use it for for the
socials for the social media.
And we have I think hundreds
hundreds of artists who
participate in this listening to
the live show, and they just try
to come up with the best thing
that represents the actual
episode itself. And then we
choose one and we and we reward
them handsomely with credits and
with love and and everyone else
we we we criticize and let them
know this funny difference. Just
some funny ones already I can
see for today's show. So we want
to thank the artist who brought
us the artwork for episode 1587.
We titled that one calmly,
calmly, calmly, calmly, calmly,
calmly, calmly and the artwork
was capitalists agenda. And it
was kind of for my birthday. It
was the an old Walkman what
Which I found kind of hard to
see but I relented eventually.
To DeVore X. harassment. I'm
like, okay, okay, I see it a TED
podcast father, which is kind of
a joke, and had little streamers
and it was really the best one.
I think there was nothing else
that we that we thought was was
like, playing like a flame
thrower. I like scared. I'm like
that it was cute. Was there
anything else that that was? Oh,
John C Dvorak: yeah, we wanted
to make comments to Gus not scar
as Gus not you can stop doing
these types of pieces, which I
call Surfer Magazine art. Which
is a very advanced style of art,
which is kind of a combination
in his case between a Surfer
Magazine art and a kidnapping
letter. That's exactly what it
is. With cut out letters. We
picked it already one time to
style Yeah, and it's the same
thing over and over it's just
different things are moved
around try something different.
Yeah.
Adam Curry: And there really
wasn't much to pick from
John C Dvorak: now that just no
it was the holiday. Oh, that's
Adam Curry: right. It was the
holiday and also I think the
Nevermind the bollocks album
cover has been done. Darren
O'Neill that's been done so many
times we've picked it probably
more than once. And like the top
left one there Nevermind the
bloody M five M here's no
agenda. It's the Sex Pistols
Nevermind the bollocks album
cover.
John C Dvorak: Oh yeah, I don't
like it
Adam Curry: that's been done
several times. So it was the
holiday short was is the one
that I did
John C Dvorak: right so the one
next to Nick near it which is by
Sir shung with the kids you
gotta fight for your right to
for pleasure, which
Adam Curry: was creepy.
John C Dvorak: It was slightly
creepy don't
Adam Curry: want that is creepy,
but it was a
John C Dvorak: nice piece. Yeah,
Adam Curry: yeah. So yeah, it
was the holiday and I can
already tell that the artists
are back it'll be some fun stuff
to look at after the show. We
really appreciate all that you
do. It's a great form of
returning value. Many people
returned value to the show.

Adam Curry: Thank you Adam for
playing fool me on booster grand
ball twice. I did not see that
coming. Oh, this is Steve. I
know this is I will try to keep
this short but please I could
use some help a once I
understand once I understood the
media is scamming the general
public I began to wonder if the
general public could scam the
media I think so a use the foot
in the the A's in there. So I
have a plan for most of this
year capitalist agenda and I've
been putting together a music
video now it's done. So here's
the plan. We create fake news
stories about a racist country
song and deep fake video of the
ladies from the view talking
about our racist countries. This
is a music promotion. Then we
pay the left leaning social
media influencers to post the
content about our racist country
song and see if we can stir up
some crap. The problem is I have
no idea how to create this
content. I've even tried Fiverr
seriously, writing this email is
a challenge but I know that
someone is listening to no
agenda does know how fake news
stories deep fake video, or is
this a job for the curry Devorah
Consulting Group. I'll share my
treasure if you can help please,
free canada@yahoo.com That's
free canada@yahoo.com And if you
want to hear our racist country
song, look for a woman of the
year on Jimmy V TV on the
YouTubes Woman of the Year on
Jimmy V TV. First you will find
this is not a country song and
it's not racist. It's much
worse. Thank you for your
courage. Thank you, Jim.
John C Dvorak: Much worse, much
worse. Yes. Okay, onward with
Josh mer Murrah Mirage
Adam Curry: morasca. So I'd say
morasca
John C Dvorak: is in
Blairsville, Georgia. Thank you,
from big ahead in the Georgia
mountains. And thanks to sea dub
in sunny Ellensburg for turning
me on to the show. That's always
notice this beautiful little
note
Adam Curry: it is indeed we
don't have many birthday
greetings for me. I'd expected
some this I'd be 59 was just not
a remarkable year people like
nice 59 Whatever. Fine 66 Next
John C Dvorak: year big, big big
bucks btw,
Adam Curry: do you know that
show 1600 And our 16th
anniversary fall within a week
of each other?
John C Dvorak: Sounds good.
Adam Curry: I'll do a little
brief mention of Sir nobody in
Parlin New Jersey because I know
that this is from the pig roast
meet up this is a color coat.
Colette calmative what does that
think it meant collective
quality of donation 158 from
this collective coaster sells
sells, and then his sales from
the 3d printer from the south
Jersey pig roast. Unfortunately,
there was only a limited amount
of two colorings due to the
printer developing a ball of
filament on the head. The ball
was so large in fact, normal
melting procedures didn't work.
I lost the entire printer
because the sensor didn't detect
this error in time. Oh well.

we're going on through
Wednesday, September 13. The
Ozarks deconstruction zone, six
o'clock at Lindbergh Tavern in
Springfield, Missouri. And on
the next show day on next
Thursday, show day, as always,
to Thursday's to the week on the
14th the Mile High meet up 630
And of course Denver, Colorado,
you'll find that at Lincoln's
Roadhouse, the no agenda
meetups, you need to be a part
of one of them even if it's just
you and one other person that
connection will bring you
protection it's always a party
and if you can't find one near
you start one yourself. Go to no
agenda meetups.com With all the
Dyson day you'll be me
Unknown: say this like
Adam Curry: I think we're both
swinging for the fences with the
ISOs. Today you have one two,
the four ISOs
John C Dvorak: therefore you
have to go first though, it's
your turn.
Adam Curry: No, you made me go
first the last time. No, no, you
John C Dvorak: got it wrong.
Adam Curry: Okay, here's my
first okay.
John C Dvorak: Do you remember
last time I had nothing? Oh,
that's right. I said bye.
Adam Curry: And that was the one
we chose. All right. Here's my
first
Unknown: God. Print that one.
Mm,
Adam Curry: no. Okay. Next one.
Oh, this
Unknown: is disappointing. Yeah.
Adam Curry: This one? Well,
that's just
Unknown: fine. That's perfect.
Adam Curry: Okay, okay. Okay.
Okay, just completely wrong.
Come on. Oh, my God, who cares
about Twitter followers. We want
money, and then the only one
that really is worth anything. I
think this is what
John C Dvorak: happens when you
hire two guys with a podcast.
Couldn't hear it? This is
Adam Curry: what happens when it
was a little low. I'm gonna see
if I can check that out for a
second. But I thought this one
actually might that you might
like this one when we say here
we go. This is what happens when
you hire two guys with a
podcast.
Unknown: Now, I guess not. Yes.
Cute. Cute. Okay, what do you
John C Dvorak: go and see what I
got. All right. Let's start with
ISO sick,
Adam Curry: sick. Sort of leaves
you physically sick. I like
that. Okay, what else?
Unknown: Bang. Bang. Dang owl.
John C Dvorak: I Chai brought
that back from the cloud. Yeah,
that's very old. Yeah. Okay.
Okay. I cannot believe it.
Adam Curry: I cannot believe it.
That's Fran Drescher. Yeah. And,
and the next one.
John C Dvorak: And the last one,
which I think is a great ending
for any podcast. cool and
amazing. This is really cool.
It's really amazing. It's gotta
Adam Curry: be between that. And
I gotta say, I kind of like I
cannot believe not that one. I
like the one. This one sort of
leaves you physically sick. Kind
of like I like that one. No, I
like sick better than then.
Unknown: This is really, really
amazing.
John C Dvorak: Huh? Like
physically sick,
Adam Curry: like sick. Hey, can
I do some Africa stuff?
John C Dvorak: Can we can we
take a little humor break first?
Adam Curry: Okay, short then
let's not have too much fun.
John C Dvorak: I have a new
segment for the show. Oh,
Adam Curry: do we need jingles?
John C Dvorak: And the question
is, is this AI or not A?
Adam Curry: Okay. Is this AI or
not AI? Something like that.
Maybe a little
John C Dvorak: bit a lot better
than that. All right. This
Adam Curry: is kind of in the
thank you in the drunk or not
drunk genre AI or not AI? Do I
play this clip? Yeah,
Unknown: I want you to know that
I did not eat that pork chop on
a stick because it is
politically necessary. I ate
that pork chop on a stick
because it was delicious.
Adam Curry: Wow. It's not even
close to Hillary Clinton. That's
horrible this is this is this
segment. I can call it every
single time. You still cannot
fool me with AI voices. This is
not this is AI
Unknown: wrong bull crap.
John C Dvorak: This is It's I
have three more clips. This is
Hillary reading from her book.
What happened who's
Adam Curry: who says that? She
didn't have aI read her book
John C Dvorak: we didn't have
this was too long ago. This is
way this is this book came out
after she lost the election in
2000 whenever it
Adam Curry: was okay, so now we
have to listen to her stupid
book. No, I only have three
clips and they're all good. But
that was the humor of humor
segment is funny. Okay,
John C Dvorak: here's what I
come to realize. She didn't
write this book.
Adam Curry: Oh, all right. Which
one do we play? First?
John C Dvorak: Let's start with
naps. Woke.
Unknown: I love naps. But I stay
woke.
Man,
John C Dvorak: she's reading
somebody else's copy. That's why
she sounds so
Adam Curry: funny. Sounds so
lame. Right? Okay, next, and
then
Unknown: we have crackers. I
have a weakness for Pepperidge
Farm goldfish crackers, and was
delighted to find out that 55
Goldfish were only 150 calories.
Not bad.
Adam Curry: Something sounds
different. Let me play that AI
clip again.
Unknown: I want you to know that
I did not eat that pork chop on
a stick because it is
politically necessary. I ate
that pork chop on a stick
because it was delicious.
Adam Curry: Wow. Okay, you got
me on that one?
John C Dvorak: I did. And you
because you, especially after
your assertion, which I thought
was great. Yeah. And here's the
last one. This is sure you
Unknown: did. Yeah, it was
great. Great.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, I can spot
these days no matter what. So
here's her reading a poem. This
is called the this is Tyler kiss
ass. But it's a it's actually a
poem that she put in her book.
And she reads it and again with
the same kind of stilted voice.
Unknown: The election is now
over. The result is now known.
The will of the people has
clearly been shown. Let's all
get together. Let bitterness
pass. I'll hug your elephant and
you kiss my ass.
Adam Curry: Wow. As in the
donkey?
Unknown: Yeah. Oh, my so
Adam Curry: was that her
reaching across the aisle?
John C Dvorak: This way? Yeah.
This was her reading. If you got
a book out, you go books on
tape, you'll find her this,
which is what happened. Wow. And
now after listening to this,
these were actually in our own
archives and never played
before. They when the book came
out, which was a couple of
months after the wish for maybe
six months after the election
with book what happened where
she blames everybody but
herself. I'm totally committed.
Just like Obama never wrote
tales from my father. These
people don't write their own
books. And they don't use they
don't have an ad with or
anything like that. They just
pay a ghostwriter, which is you
have to pay extra for that.
Because they are getting no
credit whatsoever. And some of
them blow the whistle on I don't
know who wrote this book, but
wasn't hurt. Because no, when
you're reading your own copy,
you don't sound like this. No. I
closed the segment. Yes.
Adam Curry: Okay. Well, I don't
know if I liked that segment.
John C Dvorak: No, of course
not. Because you blew it.
Adam Curry: Yes, that's right. I
don't like the segment. All
right. They figured out Africa.
John C Dvorak: I'd like to know
Adam Curry: after this. We won't
have to do any more Africa
clips. I figured it out. Yes.
Yes. Yes, I figured it out. So
outside of the EU, which I'll
get to in a moment outside of
the EU countries. You know, the
ones that that are a problem.
There was a huge Climate Summit,
which was under reported in the
United States, but everybody was
there not if you watch democracy
now. No. Okay. Well, I watched
the Africa today I watched
Turkish radio television. I
watch France 24. Thank you, clip
collector, Dave Ackerman. And I
figured out what's going on what
that what this is all about why
Africa is important. And
surprise, surprise, the climate
scam comes into view. It's not
that it's desperately new. But
Africa has some unique
properties that make the scam
very attractive.
Unknown: Africa is emerging as a
solution. The continent has the
potential to generate massive
amounts of clean energy, solar,
wind, hydro electric, everything
is possible in Africa. And some
African countries have been
harnessing these green sources.
The Summit host to Kenya is at
the forefront of renewable
energy generation and present
Enter William Ruto is
championing green growth, he has
a plan, let Africa bypass the
fossil fuel based growth of the
West. Instead, the continent
should move directly to clean
energy, develop that capacity,
and then sell it to the rest of
the world, not just energy. But
carbon credits. carbon credits
are almost a transfer of
responsibility. A polluting
country can continue polluting,
if it buys carbon credits, it
can pay green countries for
their share of pollution
capacity. This way, greenhouse
gases don't really get reduced,
they just don't increase. It's
better than nothing but not
ideal. However, the system has
the potential to enrich green
control, which is what Ruto
wants to do. And there are
backers for this. Yesterday, the
UAE pledged to buy four $50
million worth of carbon credits.
Other nations like the UK and
Germany are planning debt swaps
and green projects. Here's what
the EU said,
we're not only interested in
extracting resources, we want to
partner with you to create local
value chains to create good jobs
here in Africa. We want to share
European technology with you. We
want to invest in skills for
local workers. This is crucial
for the young people.
Basically, they're trying to
make Africa the green hub of the
world while they continue their
polluting ways.
Adam Curry: So I dive into this.
And everyone's at this
conference, Earth Queen, Ursula,
watermelon head carry everyone's
there.
John C Dvorak: Can Can I share a
comment on that clip? Yeah,
sure. The guy in the clip says
it's better than nothing. No, it
is nothing. It's not better than
nothing. It is nothing. If you
just nothing changes. How's this
helping? Climate change?
Adam Curry: That's my point.
It's a huge scam.
John C Dvorak: It's a huge Yes,
but
Adam Curry: right where I'm
going where I'm gonna lay this
out. So the way the way they
figure this, there's so Africa,
we need to capture every part of
Africa. And we need to put solar
panels down, although they keep
showing windmills. But I don't
think that's right. I think it's
all solar panels, because they
got a lot of sun, they got a lot
of empty space, we can put solar
panels. So they make Africa only
work during the day. Because at
night, this is, you know,
energy. And then they create
carbon credits for that, and
then they sell them to the west.
And that's really the crux,
that's why Kerry's there and
we'll get there in a moment. In
addition, and this is something
that goes back to, I think I had
I don't have a clip clip or a
story that the elites the
financial elites really want to
commoditize nature. And they
figured it out. And in this
clip, this next one from Africa
today, they actually have this
outfit called wildlife. What is
it I think it's called new
wildlife or something, some
outfit like that these guys got
jackets on. They're measuring
trees, like oh, he's got a
measuring tape. He's measuring
the trunk and you know, seeing
how tall it is, because somehow
through some magical formula,
they can then calculate how much
of a carbon sink this tree is.
So just by commoditizing, ie
owning or having some claim to
these pieces of land with trees
in Africa, you can create carbon
credits deep within
Unknown: Cassie go a sweeping
wilderness of craggy hills and
Savanna roamed by elephants in
The Woodlands located in
southern Kenya. A team armed
with clipboards and measuring
tips is busy studying an
unremarkable tree now to
listless it nonetheless has
great value. It stores cabin
King and President William Ruto
is hosting a climate summit in
Nairobi this week, believes
Africa's carbon sinks,
unparalleled and should be
tapped into
the restoration and expansion of
Africa's natural carbon things
are just not just an
environmental imperative. In
fact, they unparalleled economic
goldmine. They have the
potential to absorb millions of
tons of co2 annually, which
translates into billions of
dollars. If we were living in a
fair
what happened, markets are
largely unregulated and
accusations that some offsets,
particularly forest based ones
do lead to for the environment
or exploit communities have sent
prices crashing this year.
What is really important is to
take these ecosystems for what
they really account for us and
to pay the fair price for the
carbon sequestration. So I think
a claim from the continent which
is to see a better price for
carbon is a very fair one, and
something that the world should
really support And Institute.
Adam Curry: So this was the
whole conference was about. So
just because you are in Africa,
it's a gold mine, that tree over
there gold mine, we just turned
into a credit. The problem is,
we don't have a price on carbon
yet. And even worse, this is
from their own documentation.
The I'll read this sentence, if
you take two carbon credits, one
generated out of Iceland or
Norway or any other global North
Country and one generated in
Africa, assuming they're both at
the same level in terms of
integrity. There's no particular
reason why the European carbon
credit, or Japanese carbon
credit sells for 109 or $110,
and the African one for $9,
sometimes even less. This is the
game. We go get carbon credits
for 10 bucks in Africa. And then
we sell them for 100 bucks in
the West. And it's all made up
to begin with. And so now we
have to price it, how can we
let's let's talk to Carrie
because it's his actual job to
come up with a way to price it.
The President
Unknown: and the administration
have not yet embraced any
particular carbon pricing
mechanism. But the President has
directed us to examine those
that are the most prominent that
are the most possible, and to
think hard about what the
arguments are for and against
and begin to work on it. I
personally, this is not an
administration position. I have
personally supported the idea
for a number of years, quite a
few as a matter of fact that one
of the most significant best
ways of moving forward is
precisely what President Ruto
said, which is pricing carbon,
Adam Curry: okay, pricing
carbon, how President who,
that's the president of Kenya,
he's, it's his conference. He's
the guy that said, it's a gold
mine. Everyone pronounces
everyone's name differently.
Just look at the other black
guy. Well, that guy, queen,
Ursula, lift the veil,
Unknown: there's another
solution that could unlock huge
resources for climate action in
Africa mind, and that is carbon
pricing and true carbon credits.
And this is my second point. I
believe, as you do President
Ruto that setting a price on
carbon emissions is one of the
most efficient and one of the
most effective tools in our
hands. Because it fosters
innovation by the private
sector, that's crucial, because
it makes heavy polluters pay a
fair price that is necessary.
And because it creates revenues,
that can support the clean
transition and developing
countries. That's what we need.
And this includes also to
include the carbon sinks that
have been mentioned and you are
rich in carbon. And to reward
this contribution, we have to
get there. We will discuss this
in more detail in the next
session. So let us work together
to bring a proposal for global
carbon pricing and true carbon
credits at COP 28.
Adam Curry: They want to do a
global carbon tax. This is the
plan the global carbon tax that
will finally price carbon. And
then we just go into all these
African countries who are
clearly corrupt. And then we
throw down some solar panels say
oh, that's this many credits. We
say Oh, this area here with
these trees. Oh, that's this
many credits, buying for $10 in
Africa sell them for $100 in the
West. This is exactly what Al
Gore started when he when he
started his whole bullcrap the
member he had a carbon exchange
and exchange the i eta is in on
this which is near the big
trading organizations I have is
I have a whole bunch of links in
the in the show notes. But if
you see our members, it's listen
to these air carbon aspiration
Bank of America Merrill Lynch,
Bank of Montreal, BNP Paribas
John C Dvorak: interested in
getting a free buddy
transaction?
Adam Curry: Yes. Everybody's in
on this, except for a couple of
countries who don't like it.
Unknown: On the other side of
the debate are African countries
with fossil fuel deposits of
their own. Nigeria, Nigeria,
Senegal all have oil. They want
to use it to enrich their
people, like some of the Arab
states have managed to do that
or some African nations who have
done this like Gabon, which is
both an oil exporter and a very
green country. It has a massive
amount of forest cover a
potential way to earn millions
and carbon credits. But the
recent coup that has shown that
this wealth wasn't distributed
among the people. Gabon's
natural resources were
exploited. But not everyone
benefited.
Adam Curry: So I'm just going to
posit that these coos are
amazing. You
John C Dvorak: said pause it.
Adam Curry: I know I said it on
purpose so that you could like,
obsess over that. I'm going to
state that these gurus are
pissed off people who see what's
going on. See this bull crap and
the hey, we've got real energy
here. We got real stuff to
export. Don't give us this,
these solar panels. But if you
do, let us keep all the credits
and let give us a fair price
like 100 bucks not 10 bucks a
credit. And man this it's and
what they're talking about is
air travel and shipping. That's
where the global carbon tax is
going to come in and they're
gonna do it to the gore
terrorists was down there. The
UN they're going to come up with
it. Everyone's going to agree.
We need a global carbon tax on
air transport and sea shipping.
That's how they're going to do
it. And all these people in
money, yes. But but we all
everyone's complicit. Whoa, look
at the map. Oh, global warming.
Oh, we're all going to die. Now.
You're going to make these
people rich beyond their wildest
dreams. rich,
John C Dvorak: rich, really
pulling off one that's just
Adam Curry: they're fabulous.
They're pulling this off. They
are. They're going well, it's
taking
John C Dvorak: them a long time.
I mean, Gore when he first
developed his exchange, I think,
Adam Curry: the right idea or on
that guy died. That exchange guy
died.
Unknown: I think Disney
John C Dvorak: using the same
crosswalk is Larry.
Unknown: Exactly. Yeah. All
right. That's Africa. That's the
whole thing.
John C Dvorak: We can stop going
and stop talking about Africa,
because it's killing the show. I
have a couple of clips I want to
play before we're done. I want
you to play the proud boy guy
sentenced 30 This show cares.
Proud boy said I want you to
listen to this and tell me I got
a question for you. Okay, here
we go. Now
Unknown: there was a another
January 6 related legal
proceeding in that DC courthouse
today. That is the fifth and
final proud boys member facing
sentencing. What was the outcome
of that? Yeah, so
he was the fifth and final proud
boys member. But he's not just
one of the members. He's the ex
proud boy leader and he was
charged. We just got this
sentence just moments ago, with
he was sentenced to 22 years in
prison, which is the most of any
of the proud boys members. They
have been charged with 1815,
some with tin, so he has the
maximum charge here. 22 years
out of all of these probably
members that have been charged
so far. Now that is much less
than what the federal
prosecutors wanted. They asked
for 33 years, arguing that the
peaceful transfer of power is
just a fundamental thing here in
the United States. But of
course, it's much more than what
the defense team wanted for
TARIO. In that case, they wanted
15 years. And the defense team
today argued over and over
again, that charging or
sentencing him to any more than
15 years would put him on par
with those other proud boys
members that were actually here
on January 6, because remember,
TARIO was actually not here on
that day.
Adam Curry: This is my favorite
part of the story. He wasn't
even there. Throw in the brig.
Unknown: I don't get it. Well,
Adam Curry: isn't this also the
guy who has no problem calling
Alex Jones from jail for 20
minutes? I was with
John C Dvorak: this idea that
you take the guy wasn't even
there.
Adam Curry: seditious conduct.
aren't half of these guys spooks
to start with
John C Dvorak: something's up
with this whole thing. And
they're given these really
ridiculous sentences for what? A
they never really explained it
her sedition. I'm not sure what
it is. This guy's not even at
the place in January 6, but he
gets the biggest sentence. And
his lawyers are saying not only
give him 12 years, what kind of
lawyers do you have? Dead that
were pushing for 12.
Adam Curry: I think it's meant
to get a rise out of you, John,
is clearly something is clearly
up with the OP.
John C Dvorak: Something is up
period. I mean, there's the
second half of this clip is just
meaningless compared to the fact
that guy wasn't even there.
Let's play the second
Unknown: part. He was arrested a
few days earlier for burning a
BLM flag that belong to a church
and actually he was charged with
that as well. So he does have
some criminal background here.
Crime years, we did hear from
witnesses including his sister,
his fiancee, his mom, they all
came out and just spoke of
course with tears about how much
they wanted the judge to show
him mercy here with this case,
but of course the judge has his
own ruling and his own analysis
to go by here. We heard from the
judge multiple times today that
he was very moved by something
that TARIO said about comparing
one of the proud boys members
who actually launched into the
Capitol building, comparing him
to George Washington that
apparently touched the judge
quite a bit because he mentioned
that throughout the case and
right before he sentenced TARIO
to 22 years saying that it
actually slanders the founding
father to make that comparison.
So that was the ultimate ruling
sentencing of 22 years in prison
the most of any of these five
proud boys members that have
been charged and yes, he is the
final wine to be charged today.
Adam Curry: We're out of
control.
John C Dvorak: isn't obvious
criminally? burdah blm flag?
Yeah. Out of control. Chi wasn't
even there. 22 years. It's
unbelievable.
Adam Curry: You know what, you
know what stories coming next?
You know, 33 years because they
were doing a podcast. watch you
watch
John C Dvorak: speaking.
Somebody some podcast is gonna
get arrested for something
Adam Curry: speaking of a little
sad. Megyn Kelly, and I've been
on our show twice and we have
sparred. Yeah, you too are
friends. We have sparred over
certain things we have sparred
over Russia and sparred over
vaccines. She has a niche. She's
all in she has a new set. And I
saw it now. She has guests and
she has a new slogan, no agenda,
no BS. Okay. But did you see
this very sad statement she
made.
Unknown: I regret getting the
vaccine even though I'm a 52
year old woman, because I don't
think I needed it. I think I
would have been fine. I got
COVID many times and I it was
well past when the VAX vaccine
was doing what it was supposed
to be doing. And then for the
first time, I tested positive
for an autoimmune issue at my
annual physical and I asked
woman to the best rheumatologist
in New York and I asked her Do
you think this could have to do
with the fact that I got the
damn booster and then got COVID
Within three weeks? And she said
yes. Yes. I wasn't the only one
she'd seen that with.
I'm sad.
John C Dvorak: That sucks. Well,
so she got the booster that
means she got two shots. She got
the two shots then because the
booster came after you start
with the booster. So she's had
three shots and now she's got an
auto immune thing
Adam Curry: she said
rheumatologist says Does that
mean she has
John C Dvorak: there is some
rheumatoid it kind of arthritic
in
Unknown: your heart. You started
to develop arthritis. That's
horrible.
Adam Curry: That makes me sad.
Unknown: Makes me sad. Well,
John C Dvorak: there's got nice
said nice news.
Adam Curry: She got a nice new
set. Okay. All right. Wait, I
have one funny clip to go out
on. Okay. I'm sorry. I was ready
to end it on that download is
John C Dvorak: a short eight
second clip from a Delta pilot.
Adam Curry: Oh God. Okay, here
we go. A BIOHAZARD issue a
Unknown: diary all the way
through the airplane. So they
wanted to come back to Atlanta.
Adam Curry: Oh, wow. I was
hoping we could get through the
entire show without talking
about the diary of flight. That
was like the most emailed story
and I refused to even look at it
to read it. If that's the most
important thing on your mind,
people
John C Dvorak: know as they gay
and in this show, funny clip.
Enjoy.
Adam Curry: Enjoy your carbon
credits.
John C Dvorak: You're still
irked about the AI test. Not
really.
Adam Curry: Up next on the no
agenda stream we've got before
the schemes before the schemes.
That's one of those crazy that's
crazy kids doing before the
schemes. We have end of show
