the Texas Hill Country Here in FEMA Region

7
00:00:20,770 --> 00:00:23,830
Number 6 Good morning everybody, I'm Adam Curry

8
00:00:23,830 --> 00:00:26,850
And from Northern Silicon Valley Where everyone's talking

9
00:00:26,850 --> 00:00:29,230
about the fog The Fog!

10
00:00:29,730 --> 00:00:30,550
I'm John C.

11
00:00:30,650 --> 00:00:31,030
Dvorak.

12
00:00:31,430 --> 00:00:33,110
It's crack-bottom buzzkill!

13
00:00:33,310 --> 00:00:34,310
In the morning!

14
00:00:34,730 --> 00:00:36,130
Well, I'm glad you started with that.

15
00:00:36,210 --> 00:00:38,030
Before we say Happy New Year, let's talk

16
00:00:38,030 --> 00:00:38,830
about The Fog!

17
00:00:39,010 --> 00:00:41,290
Here is a quick supercut about The Fog!

18
00:00:41,890 --> 00:00:44,510
For the last seven days, the world has

19
00:00:44,510 --> 00:00:46,550
been shrouded in a veil of mystery.

20
00:00:47,070 --> 00:00:50,090
An unrelenting fog that stretches from the poop

21
00:00:50,090 --> 00:00:53,530
-covered streets of Portland, Oregon to the quietest

22
00:00:53,530 --> 00:00:54,850
corners of the countryside.

23
00:00:54,850 --> 00:00:58,090
This is no ordinary weather phenomenon.

24
00:00:58,690 --> 00:01:02,230
It's a dense, suffocating mist with an unsettling

25
00:01:02,230 --> 00:01:04,630
smell of chemicals lingering in the air.

26
00:01:04,750 --> 00:01:06,970
Oh, this is going to be interesting.

27
00:01:07,450 --> 00:01:12,010
Have you noticed this strange, thick fog that

28
00:01:12,010 --> 00:01:14,710
is blanketing cities across the globe?

29
00:01:14,790 --> 00:01:16,030
As a matter of fact, drop in the

30
00:01:16,030 --> 00:01:18,010
comments if you've experienced this.

31
00:01:18,170 --> 00:01:19,770
People are getting sick.

32
00:01:19,770 --> 00:01:23,650
They're coughing, struggling to breathe, and posting videos

33
00:01:23,650 --> 00:01:25,050
about it all over the internet.

34
00:01:25,470 --> 00:01:26,770
And here's the kicker.

35
00:01:26,850 --> 00:01:30,050
They're even reporting the scent of chemicals.

36
00:01:30,350 --> 00:01:33,470
We have some strange things happening, my friends.

37
00:01:33,690 --> 00:01:34,370
This is Tony.

38
00:01:34,830 --> 00:01:35,270
Hey, Tony.

39
00:01:35,750 --> 00:01:39,430
This very bizarre fog, very thick fog, happening

40
00:01:39,430 --> 00:01:41,490
in places that it never happens.

41
00:01:41,590 --> 00:01:41,870
Never!

42
00:01:42,390 --> 00:01:44,350
And things being seen in The Fog!

43
00:01:44,350 --> 00:01:52,650
This is an emergency livestream because the internet

44
00:01:52,650 --> 00:01:58,230
is flooded right now with footage that I'm

45
00:01:58,230 --> 00:01:59,150
about to show you.

46
00:01:59,170 --> 00:01:59,630
Oh, yes.

47
00:01:59,970 --> 00:02:04,590
Many of that footage with a weird fog

48
00:02:04,590 --> 00:02:05,230
issue.

49
00:02:05,610 --> 00:02:07,470
OK, so you guys have sent in some

50
00:02:07,470 --> 00:02:09,289
really wild stuff this time.

51
00:02:09,330 --> 00:02:10,450
Seriously wild.

52
00:02:10,570 --> 00:02:12,410
Videos, social media posts.

53
00:02:12,410 --> 00:02:14,310
I even saw a couple of local news

54
00:02:14,310 --> 00:02:14,630
clips.

55
00:02:14,710 --> 00:02:14,890
Right.

56
00:02:14,990 --> 00:02:19,530
All about this strange fog that seems to

57
00:02:19,530 --> 00:02:21,090
be blanketing everything.

58
00:02:21,310 --> 00:02:22,750
It's popping up everywhere.

59
00:02:23,330 --> 00:02:24,190
Oh, man.

60
00:02:24,510 --> 00:02:25,690
Hey, people, guess what?

61
00:02:26,050 --> 00:02:27,270
It's fog.

62
00:02:28,570 --> 00:02:29,270
It's fog.

63
00:02:29,470 --> 00:02:29,970
You don't have an ear.

64
00:02:30,050 --> 00:02:31,310
I don't know what they're talking about.

65
00:02:31,630 --> 00:02:32,390
Oh, man.

66
00:02:32,550 --> 00:02:34,470
Oh, well, the best one, I couldn't find

67
00:02:34,470 --> 00:02:37,270
anyone on YouTube talking about it, is this

68
00:02:37,270 --> 00:02:39,030
is not fog, it's smart dust.

69
00:02:40,110 --> 00:02:41,250
Oh, I haven't heard that one.

70
00:02:41,250 --> 00:02:42,090
Yes, yes.

71
00:02:42,090 --> 00:02:44,410
I mean, I started off with, I wasn't

72
00:02:44,410 --> 00:02:45,550
even going to use that as the intro.

73
00:02:45,670 --> 00:02:47,010
I'm glad you got that super cut because

74
00:02:47,010 --> 00:02:48,150
I have no clips about it.

75
00:02:48,170 --> 00:02:50,610
I actually made that myself this morning.

76
00:02:50,730 --> 00:02:51,030
Well, good.

77
00:02:52,290 --> 00:02:53,830
I'm glad we do some work on this

78
00:02:53,830 --> 00:02:54,030
show.

79
00:02:54,130 --> 00:02:54,870
We do some work.

80
00:02:55,110 --> 00:02:56,970
So there's this woman who's finally, you know,

81
00:02:56,990 --> 00:02:58,650
she looks at her HEPA filter in her

82
00:02:58,650 --> 00:03:00,590
furnace and it's all, you know, it's black

83
00:03:00,590 --> 00:03:01,730
because who knows why.

84
00:03:01,730 --> 00:03:02,110
Because it's a HEPA filter.

85
00:03:02,110 --> 00:03:03,110
There's a million possibilities.

86
00:03:03,190 --> 00:03:04,090
It's a HEPA filter.

87
00:03:04,270 --> 00:03:04,730
That's why.

88
00:03:04,870 --> 00:03:05,890
It's a HEPA filter.

89
00:03:06,070 --> 00:03:07,090
They collect dust.

90
00:03:07,210 --> 00:03:07,390
Yeah.

91
00:03:07,390 --> 00:03:09,490
And so she's all bent out of shape

92
00:03:09,490 --> 00:03:10,510
because of the fog.

93
00:03:10,630 --> 00:03:12,870
And then there's this idea, this is the

94
00:03:12,870 --> 00:03:13,730
June bug thing.

95
00:03:14,270 --> 00:03:16,430
It's a weird form of hysteria.

96
00:03:16,550 --> 00:03:17,670
Mimi brought it up this morning.

97
00:03:17,790 --> 00:03:19,010
She's on the computer.

98
00:03:19,130 --> 00:03:20,750
She says, what's all this about the fog?

99
00:03:21,210 --> 00:03:21,310
The fog.

100
00:03:21,510 --> 00:03:21,650
What's up?

101
00:03:22,510 --> 00:03:23,170
Wait a minute.

102
00:03:23,550 --> 00:03:23,910
Wait, wait, wait.

103
00:03:23,990 --> 00:03:25,330
Was she on the computer or was she

104
00:03:25,330 --> 00:03:25,930
on Facebook?

105
00:03:26,670 --> 00:03:27,730
She was on the computer.

106
00:03:28,090 --> 00:03:29,790
She was doing scrolling on something.

107
00:03:29,870 --> 00:03:30,590
Oh, yeah, of course.

108
00:03:30,790 --> 00:03:31,310
I don't think.

109
00:03:31,430 --> 00:03:31,790
Of course.

110
00:03:32,470 --> 00:03:35,630
But I told her that the real thing

111
00:03:35,630 --> 00:03:36,330
that's going on.

112
00:03:36,330 --> 00:03:39,090
I thought the fog thing had already passed.

113
00:03:40,030 --> 00:03:42,030
But I do have the clip for this,

114
00:03:42,110 --> 00:03:44,090
which is this thing, which is the only

115
00:03:44,090 --> 00:03:45,190
talk clip I have.

116
00:03:45,570 --> 00:03:46,030
Oh, boy.

117
00:03:46,610 --> 00:03:47,430
This is a woman.

118
00:03:47,850 --> 00:03:48,370
This is a woman.

119
00:03:48,510 --> 00:03:49,390
She's wearing a mask.

120
00:03:49,530 --> 00:03:50,710
She's at the Planet Fitness.

121
00:03:50,870 --> 00:03:51,810
And here she goes.

122
00:03:52,190 --> 00:03:53,210
Hey, good morning, people.

123
00:03:53,990 --> 00:03:56,110
For those of you who watch most of

124
00:03:56,110 --> 00:03:58,430
my post, you know that I am a

125
00:03:58,430 --> 00:04:01,070
proud member of Team Delulu.

126
00:04:01,850 --> 00:04:02,550
Team Delulu?

127
00:04:02,770 --> 00:04:03,850
If you know what that means, then it'll

128
00:04:03,850 --> 00:04:04,750
make sense to you.

129
00:04:05,410 --> 00:04:10,250
But I was watching Empress and Raw Cognizance

130
00:04:10,250 --> 00:04:13,730
and a couple of other people today, and

131
00:04:13,730 --> 00:04:18,630
it's starting.

132
00:04:19,450 --> 00:04:20,410
It's happening.

133
00:04:20,850 --> 00:04:26,850
If you have access to DJT's, that social

134
00:04:26,850 --> 00:04:31,490
media side of his, read the one from

135
00:04:31,490 --> 00:04:36,390
today where he is talking to Republicans and

136
00:04:36,390 --> 00:04:37,710
telling them to be tough.

137
00:04:38,550 --> 00:04:39,850
He knows.

138
00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:41,810
He knows he's caught.

139
00:04:42,790 --> 00:04:43,950
He knows.

140
00:04:44,410 --> 00:04:44,510
What?

141
00:04:45,070 --> 00:04:45,590
He's caught?

142
00:04:45,590 --> 00:04:50,070
This is going to be an interesting few

143
00:04:50,070 --> 00:04:50,410
weeks.

144
00:04:51,630 --> 00:04:54,870
I've told people from the very beginning, no

145
00:04:54,870 --> 00:04:59,470
way things are going to turn out the

146
00:04:59,470 --> 00:05:01,130
way people expect them to turn out on

147
00:05:01,130 --> 00:05:02,530
the 20th.

148
00:05:06,210 --> 00:05:08,410
So it's a wow.

149
00:05:09,810 --> 00:05:11,590
I am so happy I can say a

150
00:05:11,590 --> 00:05:12,590
little bit about it now.

151
00:05:13,090 --> 00:05:14,450
I was stifled at the beginning.

152
00:05:14,630 --> 00:05:16,470
I was told not to talk about this.

153
00:05:16,590 --> 00:05:19,370
I was warned that I would be blocked

154
00:05:19,370 --> 00:05:22,130
if I brought this up in any conversation.

155
00:05:24,490 --> 00:05:29,210
And it shocks me that it's easy for

156
00:05:29,210 --> 00:05:32,410
a person or people to do that and

157
00:05:32,410 --> 00:05:36,730
then condemn me for questioning things that don't

158
00:05:36,730 --> 00:05:37,170
look right.

159
00:05:39,090 --> 00:05:43,170
And now we learn that there's a lot

160
00:05:43,170 --> 00:05:46,370
of people questioning what doesn't look right.

161
00:05:47,350 --> 00:05:49,010
We just lost half the audience.

162
00:05:49,250 --> 00:05:50,970
What is this clip about?

163
00:05:52,070 --> 00:05:53,610
This is all black women.

164
00:05:54,290 --> 00:05:56,330
Trump is not going to be – I've

165
00:05:56,330 --> 00:05:57,490
been playing these clips for a while.

166
00:05:57,490 --> 00:05:57,830
Oh, yeah.

167
00:05:57,890 --> 00:05:58,970
He's not going to be president.

168
00:05:59,250 --> 00:06:00,210
Yes, I've heard this one.

169
00:06:00,250 --> 00:06:01,870
I've been playing these clips for a while.

170
00:06:02,550 --> 00:06:04,370
They're all subtle and they're all like this

171
00:06:04,370 --> 00:06:07,190
is the latest version of these black women.

172
00:06:07,290 --> 00:06:09,150
They've all come out and said he's been

173
00:06:09,150 --> 00:06:09,650
caught.

174
00:06:09,810 --> 00:06:10,130
Yes.

175
00:06:10,270 --> 00:06:11,250
He's been caught for a while.

176
00:06:11,510 --> 00:06:12,390
He's in Guantanamo Bay.

177
00:06:12,590 --> 00:06:13,990
He's in Guantanamo Bay, no doubt.

178
00:06:14,230 --> 00:06:16,050
He's been caught and he's not going to

179
00:06:16,050 --> 00:06:18,150
– and Kamala, the thing that really tops

180
00:06:18,150 --> 00:06:19,610
it from some of these people is that

181
00:06:19,610 --> 00:06:21,050
Kamala is being brought back.

182
00:06:21,150 --> 00:06:22,050
Yeah, to be president.

183
00:06:22,210 --> 00:06:22,550
Of course.

184
00:06:23,010 --> 00:06:23,510
It's obvious.

185
00:06:23,870 --> 00:06:27,110
And she said the thing – now, this

186
00:06:27,110 --> 00:06:30,690
one might be a parody, this woman, because

187
00:06:30,690 --> 00:06:32,750
she says she's from Team Delulu.

188
00:06:33,130 --> 00:06:34,310
As in delusional?

189
00:06:35,030 --> 00:06:35,330
Yeah.

190
00:06:35,490 --> 00:06:35,630
Yeah.

191
00:06:36,750 --> 00:06:38,090
So, you know, okay.

192
00:06:38,890 --> 00:06:40,590
And we didn't lose half the audience.

193
00:06:40,770 --> 00:06:42,010
We only lost a third of them.

194
00:06:43,070 --> 00:06:45,790
So, first of all, it's temperature inversion.

195
00:06:46,150 --> 00:06:47,030
We have fog.

196
00:06:47,030 --> 00:06:53,210
In fact, January 2024, Washington Post, why thick

197
00:06:53,210 --> 00:06:56,230
fog is blanketing a record stretch of the

198
00:06:56,230 --> 00:06:57,810
U.S.? This happens in January.

199
00:06:58,470 --> 00:07:01,850
But you identified correctly what is really happening

200
00:07:01,850 --> 00:07:04,710
in the narcissistic era that we live in.

201
00:07:05,970 --> 00:07:08,250
And I was thinking about this yesterday.

202
00:07:08,810 --> 00:07:09,010
Hysteria.

203
00:07:09,550 --> 00:07:13,390
Well, it's narcissistic, and that's why it breeds

204
00:07:13,390 --> 00:07:14,210
hysteria.

205
00:07:15,450 --> 00:07:17,810
And if it was a parody or not,

206
00:07:17,890 --> 00:07:19,230
what she's doing is very typical.

207
00:07:19,430 --> 00:07:20,590
I can't talk about this.

208
00:07:20,690 --> 00:07:21,950
You know, they told me I'll be blocked.

209
00:07:22,410 --> 00:07:24,250
You know, I had this on – They,

210
00:07:24,430 --> 00:07:24,950
they, they, they.

211
00:07:25,390 --> 00:07:27,250
So, yesterday, we had a New Year's Eve

212
00:07:27,250 --> 00:07:28,990
gathering, some friends of ours, and we had

213
00:07:28,990 --> 00:07:31,550
black-eyed peas, actually, which was the first

214
00:07:31,550 --> 00:07:32,330
– Yeah, it's good luck in the South.

215
00:07:32,350 --> 00:07:33,530
It's good luck in the South.

216
00:07:33,770 --> 00:07:34,550
Here in the North, no.

217
00:07:34,950 --> 00:07:37,450
It comes – I think it originally comes

218
00:07:37,450 --> 00:07:39,990
from the Civil War, I think.

219
00:07:40,370 --> 00:07:41,830
Black-eyed peas were – I don't know.

220
00:07:41,830 --> 00:07:43,510
I used to know the history of this.

221
00:07:43,510 --> 00:07:45,190
Well, I looked it up.

222
00:07:45,370 --> 00:07:45,690
It's superstition.

223
00:07:45,870 --> 00:07:47,070
Of course, it's superstition.

224
00:07:47,190 --> 00:07:48,830
But black-eyed peas were considered a food

225
00:07:48,830 --> 00:07:50,910
for animals who were often overlooked by soldiers.

226
00:07:51,010 --> 00:07:53,350
However, they became a vital source of sustenance

227
00:07:53,350 --> 00:07:55,190
during harsh winters, and it is, of course,

228
00:07:55,230 --> 00:07:55,970
a symbol of luck.

229
00:07:56,010 --> 00:07:56,850
You've got to eat black-eyed peas.

230
00:07:56,950 --> 00:07:57,570
I never had them.

231
00:07:57,970 --> 00:07:58,630
Liked them a lot.

232
00:07:58,810 --> 00:07:59,050
It's a bean.

233
00:07:59,250 --> 00:08:00,050
I liked them a lot.

234
00:08:00,070 --> 00:08:00,470
It was good.

235
00:08:01,050 --> 00:08:02,090
They're very tasty.

236
00:08:02,870 --> 00:08:03,970
It's an heirloom bean.

237
00:08:04,090 --> 00:08:04,550
They're quite good.

238
00:08:04,650 --> 00:08:05,870
There's a lot of these different kinds of

239
00:08:05,870 --> 00:08:06,430
heirloom beans.

240
00:08:06,610 --> 00:08:09,070
There's yellow-eyed peas, too, which are beans.

241
00:08:09,070 --> 00:08:09,950
Well, hold on a second.

242
00:08:10,150 --> 00:08:11,530
I've never heard – Well, now we have

243
00:08:11,530 --> 00:08:13,450
a bean discussion.

244
00:08:14,390 --> 00:08:15,370
Yellow-eyed peas.

245
00:08:15,910 --> 00:08:16,030
Hmm.

246
00:08:17,330 --> 00:08:18,510
Yeah, I have a couple cans.

247
00:08:18,670 --> 00:08:20,310
They came from S&W.

248
00:08:20,450 --> 00:08:21,810
I think they were under their – they

249
00:08:21,810 --> 00:08:22,810
have an heirloom brand.

250
00:08:22,850 --> 00:08:24,370
They're starting to bring out these old heirloom

251
00:08:24,370 --> 00:08:25,470
beans and canning them.

252
00:08:26,590 --> 00:08:28,810
This is a bunch of weird – they're

253
00:08:28,810 --> 00:08:29,210
all good.

254
00:08:29,310 --> 00:08:31,730
I mean, nothing tops – just to say

255
00:08:31,730 --> 00:08:33,850
this, I'm going to say it.

256
00:08:35,429 --> 00:08:39,510
I also like pineapple pizza, so I'm going

257
00:08:39,510 --> 00:08:40,270
to say this, too.

258
00:08:40,270 --> 00:08:42,950
There's nothing better than a pinto bean.

259
00:08:43,470 --> 00:08:44,110
Pinto bean.

260
00:08:44,270 --> 00:08:45,430
Pinto beans for the win.

261
00:08:47,970 --> 00:08:51,690
So, as always, people bring up – it

262
00:08:51,690 --> 00:08:53,350
must have been 30, 40 people there.

263
00:08:54,150 --> 00:08:55,850
At least half of them are watching the

264
00:08:55,850 --> 00:08:58,310
game, the Texas game, when, over time, we

265
00:08:58,310 --> 00:09:01,150
won, of course, Texas, although we didn't deserve

266
00:09:01,150 --> 00:09:01,370
it.

267
00:09:01,690 --> 00:09:03,570
That's my sports ball analysis for today.

268
00:09:03,670 --> 00:09:04,790
I would say you didn't deserve it.

269
00:09:04,810 --> 00:09:06,930
They let Arizona State get that close.

270
00:09:07,050 --> 00:09:07,690
I'm telling you.

271
00:09:07,690 --> 00:09:09,150
We didn't deserve it, but we won, so

272
00:09:09,150 --> 00:09:09,910
we'll take it.

273
00:09:10,970 --> 00:09:13,250
But then everyone – oh, there's this conspiracy

274
00:09:13,250 --> 00:09:13,630
guy.

275
00:09:14,670 --> 00:09:16,030
Hey, what about the fog?

276
00:09:16,710 --> 00:09:18,030
It starts with the fog.

277
00:09:18,810 --> 00:09:18,930
No.

278
00:09:19,290 --> 00:09:19,710
Oh, yeah.

279
00:09:19,930 --> 00:09:22,730
Oh, you want to hear the latest?

280
00:09:23,830 --> 00:09:24,690
Yeah, of course.

281
00:09:25,130 --> 00:09:26,870
That's part of the show for as far

282
00:09:26,870 --> 00:09:27,310
as I'm concerned.

283
00:09:27,310 --> 00:09:29,110
Remind me to come back to the story.

284
00:09:30,010 --> 00:09:31,830
We are about to go into 10 days

285
00:09:31,830 --> 00:09:33,010
of communication darkness.

286
00:09:33,750 --> 00:09:34,030
Oh.

287
00:09:34,030 --> 00:09:36,670
The power to the entire world will switch

288
00:09:36,670 --> 00:09:39,770
off briefly, at which point the internet will

289
00:09:39,770 --> 00:09:41,770
be switched over to Starlink only.

290
00:09:43,290 --> 00:09:45,590
Shutdowns will occur only in certain areas, but

291
00:09:45,590 --> 00:09:48,310
banks are closing, ATMs, credit cards won't work.

292
00:09:48,710 --> 00:09:50,370
Make sure you have at least a month's

293
00:09:50,370 --> 00:09:52,990
supply of food, water, cash, medicine, all the

294
00:09:52,990 --> 00:09:55,470
essentials for yourself, your family, and to share

295
00:09:55,470 --> 00:09:56,850
with others in case of emergency.

296
00:09:57,570 --> 00:09:59,830
But if you're unprepared, don't worry, because the

297
00:09:59,830 --> 00:10:02,650
military will be supplying what we need, and

298
00:10:02,650 --> 00:10:05,790
nonstop education will be broadcast, teaching everybody about

299
00:10:05,790 --> 00:10:07,510
the true principles of freedom and justice.

300
00:10:07,630 --> 00:10:08,090
It's coming.

301
00:10:08,450 --> 00:10:09,130
It's all coming.

302
00:10:09,210 --> 00:10:10,130
It's all part of the plan.

303
00:10:10,270 --> 00:10:10,810
Trust the plan.

304
00:10:11,530 --> 00:10:12,350
I'm not kidding.

305
00:10:13,050 --> 00:10:14,890
This is the stuff that gets talked about

306
00:10:14,890 --> 00:10:15,170
here.

307
00:10:16,250 --> 00:10:17,530
That is amazing.

308
00:10:17,690 --> 00:10:18,730
It's fantastic.

309
00:10:19,430 --> 00:10:20,230
It is fantastic.

310
00:10:20,870 --> 00:10:25,390
It's absolutely amazing how small communities, which yours

311
00:10:25,390 --> 00:10:25,650
is.

312
00:10:25,650 --> 00:10:29,850
Of incredibly well-educated, smart, successful people.

313
00:10:29,850 --> 00:10:32,410
I think you have a high net income

314
00:10:32,410 --> 00:10:33,070
area too.

315
00:10:33,210 --> 00:10:34,590
I think you're not a bunch of poor

316
00:10:34,590 --> 00:10:34,930
people.

317
00:10:35,190 --> 00:10:36,030
No, no, not at all.

318
00:10:36,150 --> 00:10:37,770
In fact, the poor people are probably going

319
00:10:37,770 --> 00:10:38,790
to come up with this crap.

320
00:10:39,010 --> 00:10:39,770
We're the poorest.

321
00:10:40,170 --> 00:10:41,710
We're the podcast family.

322
00:10:42,350 --> 00:10:45,270
Everyone else is in oil and land.

323
00:10:46,730 --> 00:10:47,830
We're like this.

324
00:10:47,970 --> 00:10:52,210
So it's essentially a Texas elite, and you

325
00:10:52,210 --> 00:10:53,870
end up coming up with this left and

326
00:10:53,870 --> 00:10:55,530
right, and it happens continuously.

327
00:10:55,770 --> 00:10:56,630
I've noticed this.

328
00:10:57,390 --> 00:10:58,350
It's nonstop.

329
00:10:58,350 --> 00:11:00,990
And it goes from one to another, and

330
00:11:00,990 --> 00:11:02,750
nobody ever notices that the stuff in the

331
00:11:02,750 --> 00:11:04,810
past has ever failed and never happened.

332
00:11:06,370 --> 00:11:07,510
No one questions this.

333
00:11:07,550 --> 00:11:08,630
This is what bothers me.

334
00:11:09,770 --> 00:11:12,930
Well, then it moved to H-1B, and

335
00:11:12,930 --> 00:11:14,530
I don't want to get into that just

336
00:11:14,530 --> 00:11:17,550
now, but I laid out my rap, which

337
00:11:17,550 --> 00:11:18,590
I laid out on the last show.

338
00:11:18,710 --> 00:11:19,990
It's like, let them all come in.

339
00:11:20,190 --> 00:11:22,710
Silicon Valley, let them all be run by

340
00:11:22,710 --> 00:11:23,070
Indians.

341
00:11:23,230 --> 00:11:23,690
It's fine.

342
00:11:23,890 --> 00:11:25,850
What have they delivered other than the iPhone

343
00:11:25,850 --> 00:11:26,590
16?

344
00:11:27,110 --> 00:11:31,030
At this point, people start laughing and chuckling,

345
00:11:31,590 --> 00:11:33,050
and like, oh, I still have an iPhone.

346
00:11:33,270 --> 00:11:34,290
People pull out their iPhones.

347
00:11:34,390 --> 00:11:35,390
I have an iPhone 11.

348
00:11:35,610 --> 00:11:36,470
I have an upgraded.

349
00:11:36,550 --> 00:11:37,750
Oh, I get an iPhone 12.

350
00:11:38,110 --> 00:11:39,430
And then I pull out the flip phone.

351
00:11:39,510 --> 00:11:40,590
I said, I got a flip phone.

352
00:11:41,010 --> 00:11:41,950
And everyone goes, oh.

353
00:11:42,670 --> 00:11:44,510
Oh, let me look at that.

354
00:11:45,070 --> 00:11:48,270
And it really made me think, like, what

355
00:11:48,270 --> 00:11:48,670
is it?

356
00:11:48,810 --> 00:11:50,630
And they're like, oh, what does it do?

357
00:11:50,730 --> 00:11:51,410
I said, not much.

358
00:11:52,190 --> 00:11:53,570
Does it have a selfie cam?

359
00:11:53,670 --> 00:11:54,710
I said, not a very good one.

360
00:11:54,710 --> 00:11:57,250
I said, it's unattractive to use.

361
00:11:57,330 --> 00:11:58,990
It's not easy, so I don't use it.

362
00:11:59,010 --> 00:12:00,910
I use it for texting, and it's indestructible,

363
00:12:01,070 --> 00:12:02,410
and it costs 62 bucks.

364
00:12:02,670 --> 00:12:05,510
And I realized what is happening in the

365
00:12:05,510 --> 00:12:06,670
narcissistic era.

366
00:12:07,970 --> 00:12:12,190
The narcissism is created by the smartphone and

367
00:12:12,190 --> 00:12:13,390
the selfie cam.

368
00:12:14,230 --> 00:12:16,290
And we're, you know, if you're looking –

369
00:12:16,290 --> 00:12:17,630
I love – hold on a second.

370
00:12:18,170 --> 00:12:19,810
I love the way you come up with

371
00:12:19,810 --> 00:12:21,050
these crazy theories.

372
00:12:21,170 --> 00:12:23,970
You've done this before with the under-socialized

373
00:12:23,970 --> 00:12:26,030
or over-socialized, under-educated.

374
00:12:26,430 --> 00:12:28,350
You have this basic thesis, and you will

375
00:12:28,350 --> 00:12:31,970
use it as a baseline, a tree, as

376
00:12:31,970 --> 00:12:33,590
it were, for all the branches of your

377
00:12:33,590 --> 00:12:33,970
thoughts.

378
00:12:34,110 --> 00:12:34,390
Forever.

379
00:12:34,610 --> 00:12:35,890
And it's actually quite good.

380
00:12:35,970 --> 00:12:36,550
Well, thank you.

381
00:12:36,590 --> 00:12:37,490
And I'm not even done.

382
00:12:37,630 --> 00:12:38,670
I'm just getting ramped up here.

383
00:12:38,670 --> 00:12:39,770
Well, no, I figured that.

384
00:12:39,930 --> 00:12:40,810
That's why I had to stop you.

385
00:12:41,170 --> 00:12:44,790
So, you know, what happens is, you know

386
00:12:44,790 --> 00:12:46,650
– and it's TikTok, and a lot of

387
00:12:46,650 --> 00:12:47,810
older people are on TikTok.

388
00:12:48,330 --> 00:12:51,230
What is happening is, you know, you're completely

389
00:12:51,230 --> 00:12:52,790
in your own bubble.

390
00:12:52,790 --> 00:12:55,870
You know, you have this device in your

391
00:12:55,870 --> 00:12:57,850
hands, and it is the device.

392
00:12:57,970 --> 00:12:59,570
I'm convinced now it's the device.

393
00:13:00,090 --> 00:13:01,730
And if there's something you don't like, you

394
00:13:01,730 --> 00:13:02,770
just swipe away.

395
00:13:03,050 --> 00:13:07,070
We are, in fact, propagandizing ourselves by –

396
00:13:07,070 --> 00:13:07,990
oh, no, I don't want to see that.

397
00:13:08,050 --> 00:13:09,530
No, I want to see more missed videos.

398
00:13:10,190 --> 00:13:14,310
And throughout history, people have carried symbols of

399
00:13:14,310 --> 00:13:15,410
how they're dominated.

400
00:13:16,670 --> 00:13:18,410
Now, slaves, of course, didn't have a choice,

401
00:13:18,450 --> 00:13:19,310
but they got branded.

402
00:13:19,810 --> 00:13:21,070
You had the scarlet letter.

403
00:13:21,070 --> 00:13:24,510
To some degree, even a rosary is showing

404
00:13:24,510 --> 00:13:26,290
that you're dominated by something.

405
00:13:27,390 --> 00:13:30,050
And I think the smartphone now is our

406
00:13:30,050 --> 00:13:30,810
confessional.

407
00:13:31,490 --> 00:13:34,070
TikTok and social networks, they're the church.

408
00:13:34,470 --> 00:13:36,150
A like is like getting an amen.

409
00:13:37,070 --> 00:13:39,870
And instead of asking for forgiveness, we're begging

410
00:13:39,870 --> 00:13:40,650
for attention.

411
00:13:41,310 --> 00:13:43,810
And this is why you're safe.

412
00:13:44,130 --> 00:13:46,090
This is why you're safe, because you don't

413
00:13:46,090 --> 00:13:49,370
have one of these propaganda, narcissistic devices.

414
00:13:49,370 --> 00:13:50,910
I have one.

415
00:13:51,310 --> 00:13:53,610
Yeah, but you don't carry it around like

416
00:13:53,610 --> 00:13:54,090
a rosary.

417
00:13:54,110 --> 00:13:55,190
No, hell no.

418
00:13:55,390 --> 00:13:58,170
No, and in my flip phone, people are

419
00:13:58,170 --> 00:13:58,650
interested.

420
00:13:58,810 --> 00:14:01,090
I can see they're drawn to it because

421
00:14:01,090 --> 00:14:05,210
underneath it all, they know that the smartphone

422
00:14:05,210 --> 00:14:06,470
is the problem.

423
00:14:06,810 --> 00:14:10,390
And they're drawn to the $62 device because

424
00:14:10,390 --> 00:14:12,290
they know that really they have to break

425
00:14:12,290 --> 00:14:14,610
free from this thing that dominates their life.

426
00:14:14,610 --> 00:14:18,770
And it has become a complete narcissistic era.

427
00:14:19,110 --> 00:14:22,450
It's all to raise everyone's own profile, to

428
00:14:22,450 --> 00:14:25,010
raise your own marketability.

429
00:14:25,370 --> 00:14:27,430
Yeah, your brand, your marketability.

430
00:14:27,770 --> 00:14:29,150
That's what it's become.

431
00:14:30,010 --> 00:14:33,130
And those who are tied to it will

432
00:14:33,130 --> 00:14:34,650
probably never get out of it.

433
00:14:34,870 --> 00:14:38,050
The narcissistic era, the smartphone, and the selfie

434
00:14:38,050 --> 00:14:38,490
camera.

435
00:14:39,050 --> 00:14:42,190
Well, that woman who was talking, the talk

436
00:14:42,190 --> 00:14:44,910
clip that I played earlier, she does say,

437
00:14:45,170 --> 00:14:50,190
if you've heard my other discussions, you know

438
00:14:50,190 --> 00:14:51,450
I'm a member of DeLulu.

439
00:14:52,390 --> 00:14:54,950
In other words, a lot of these people

440
00:14:54,950 --> 00:14:56,070
always self-reference.

441
00:14:56,350 --> 00:14:58,450
They talk about me, me, me.

442
00:14:58,510 --> 00:14:59,050
Me, me, me.

443
00:14:59,210 --> 00:14:59,810
Me, me, me, me.

444
00:14:59,830 --> 00:15:01,970
It's like, as I've told you in my

445
00:15:01,970 --> 00:15:05,810
past videos, they all say this.

446
00:15:05,950 --> 00:15:06,890
Yes, yes, yes.

447
00:15:06,890 --> 00:15:09,150
As you should know from my show.

448
00:15:10,810 --> 00:15:11,950
My show, yeah.

449
00:15:12,010 --> 00:15:13,510
And this is also the reason for the

450
00:15:13,510 --> 00:15:16,910
incessant, you've got to have a video podcast.

451
00:15:17,150 --> 00:15:18,770
If you don't have a video podcast, it's

452
00:15:18,770 --> 00:15:19,190
no good.

453
00:15:19,370 --> 00:15:20,470
You've got to show yourself.

454
00:15:20,550 --> 00:15:21,190
It's for you.

455
00:15:21,430 --> 00:15:23,570
You have to raise your you.

456
00:15:24,370 --> 00:15:25,230
It's all about your brand.

457
00:15:25,310 --> 00:15:26,890
Yeah, your brand, your marketability.

458
00:15:27,670 --> 00:15:28,770
Your personal brand.

459
00:15:30,130 --> 00:15:31,530
And I think you and I've...

460
00:15:31,530 --> 00:15:33,490
I'd like to do a Google Ngram search

461
00:15:33,490 --> 00:15:35,670
on personal brand and see if that cropped

462
00:15:35,670 --> 00:15:35,910
up.

463
00:15:35,910 --> 00:15:37,810
How many times have you heard someone say,

464
00:15:37,910 --> 00:15:39,290
oh, that's really off-brand for me?

465
00:15:39,570 --> 00:15:41,250
I've heard young people say this.

466
00:15:41,470 --> 00:15:41,830
Oh, yeah.

467
00:15:42,310 --> 00:15:42,570
Yeah.

468
00:15:42,730 --> 00:15:43,010
Yeah.

469
00:15:43,510 --> 00:15:44,650
They're lost, John.

470
00:15:44,990 --> 00:15:46,850
And we are the life raft in an

471
00:15:46,850 --> 00:15:47,110
ocean.

472
00:15:47,650 --> 00:15:49,410
We are the life raft in an ocean

473
00:15:49,410 --> 00:15:49,910
of narcissism.

474
00:15:50,970 --> 00:15:52,210
Grab a hold of us, people.

475
00:15:52,350 --> 00:15:53,010
Grab a hold.

476
00:15:53,090 --> 00:15:53,990
You can be saved.

477
00:15:55,550 --> 00:15:55,850
Jeez.

478
00:15:57,450 --> 00:15:57,890
Jeez.

479
00:15:58,710 --> 00:15:59,690
That's a great one.

480
00:16:00,110 --> 00:16:00,290
Yeah.

481
00:16:02,350 --> 00:16:04,030
And you can date it all back to

482
00:16:04,030 --> 00:16:05,190
2007 with the iPhone.

483
00:16:05,190 --> 00:16:05,670
That's right.

484
00:16:05,770 --> 00:16:06,490
That's when it kicked in.

485
00:16:06,490 --> 00:16:08,630
There was other smart devices that, you know,

486
00:16:08,730 --> 00:16:13,290
Microsoft had a smartphone and Nokia, but they

487
00:16:13,290 --> 00:16:16,750
didn't come close to once the iPhone rolled

488
00:16:16,750 --> 00:16:16,850
out.

489
00:16:16,850 --> 00:16:20,230
Well, actually, when did the iPhone get the

490
00:16:20,230 --> 00:16:20,890
selfie cam?

491
00:16:20,970 --> 00:16:22,370
I don't think it was on the first

492
00:16:22,370 --> 00:16:22,910
device.

493
00:16:23,830 --> 00:16:24,610
I think it was.

494
00:16:25,530 --> 00:16:26,850
I don't think they had a selfie cam.

495
00:16:26,870 --> 00:16:27,630
No, because there were...

496
00:16:27,630 --> 00:16:29,010
I'll tell you why I think that.

497
00:16:29,110 --> 00:16:29,310
Okay.

498
00:16:29,310 --> 00:16:30,590
Now you would have to look it up,

499
00:16:30,870 --> 00:16:31,650
the iPhone 1.

500
00:16:31,650 --> 00:16:35,330
But because there was selfie cameras on all

501
00:16:35,330 --> 00:16:37,590
the other phones before the iPhone showed up,

502
00:16:37,610 --> 00:16:40,050
they're not going to bring it out without

503
00:16:40,050 --> 00:16:43,070
the camera, because their cameras were already in

504
00:16:43,070 --> 00:16:45,690
play for at least two or three years.

505
00:16:45,830 --> 00:16:47,450
In fact, I remember going to Comdex and

506
00:16:47,450 --> 00:16:50,370
some of these trade shows for Motorola and

507
00:16:50,370 --> 00:16:51,590
other people, and they had the camera.

508
00:16:51,970 --> 00:16:53,650
Not all of them, but a lot of

509
00:16:53,650 --> 00:16:54,830
them already had the camera, and it was

510
00:16:54,830 --> 00:16:55,750
a big deal.

511
00:16:57,190 --> 00:16:57,690
Let me see.

512
00:16:58,090 --> 00:16:58,530
Hardware.

513
00:17:00,110 --> 00:17:01,790
I don't think it had...

514
00:17:01,790 --> 00:17:02,690
I don't think it...

515
00:17:02,690 --> 00:17:04,530
I think that was one of the reasons...

516
00:17:06,030 --> 00:17:07,890
Oh, I can't find it quick enough, but

517
00:17:07,890 --> 00:17:08,530
I don't think...

518
00:17:10,470 --> 00:17:12,050
Troll Room, go to work.

519
00:17:12,170 --> 00:17:15,170
Troll Room says the first iPhone only had

520
00:17:15,170 --> 00:17:16,230
the rear camera.

521
00:17:17,450 --> 00:17:18,390
Oh, you mean...

522
00:17:18,390 --> 00:17:18,710
Okay.

523
00:17:19,290 --> 00:17:20,329
Yes, I don't...

524
00:17:20,329 --> 00:17:20,569
That's what I'm talking about.

525
00:17:20,589 --> 00:17:21,970
Yeah, you're thinking of the two cameras.

526
00:17:22,190 --> 00:17:22,990
Yeah, yeah, the selfie cam.

527
00:17:23,089 --> 00:17:23,430
That's the one on the front.

528
00:17:23,430 --> 00:17:24,250
Oh, the front camera.

529
00:17:24,270 --> 00:17:24,910
Yeah, the one on the front.

530
00:17:24,910 --> 00:17:25,290
You're right.

531
00:17:25,490 --> 00:17:25,690
Yeah.

532
00:17:25,690 --> 00:17:26,010
Yeah.

533
00:17:26,589 --> 00:17:29,110
No, that I agree with, because the idea

534
00:17:29,110 --> 00:17:30,590
of a selfie camera, the camera on the

535
00:17:30,590 --> 00:17:32,630
other side, came when they were looking for

536
00:17:32,630 --> 00:17:33,910
additional features.

537
00:17:34,230 --> 00:17:34,830
Yes, yes.

538
00:17:35,030 --> 00:17:35,730
But you could...

539
00:17:35,730 --> 00:17:36,270
They were taking...

540
00:17:36,270 --> 00:17:38,350
People were taking selfies with the rear camera,

541
00:17:38,430 --> 00:17:39,090
and they'd check it.

542
00:17:39,090 --> 00:17:40,670
I know, but it was the combo...

543
00:17:40,670 --> 00:17:40,910
Back and forth.

544
00:17:41,310 --> 00:17:42,810
It wasn't quite the same.

545
00:17:43,030 --> 00:17:43,510
Yeah, it wasn't quite the same.

546
00:17:43,510 --> 00:17:46,190
The combo of the front-facing cam and

547
00:17:46,190 --> 00:17:47,870
Facebook slash Twitter.

548
00:17:47,970 --> 00:17:49,330
You had to have a place to send

549
00:17:49,330 --> 00:17:49,570
it to.

550
00:17:49,570 --> 00:17:53,190
The funny thing is that the camera, the

551
00:17:53,190 --> 00:17:55,130
regular camera that was on all the phones,

552
00:17:55,830 --> 00:17:58,170
was a higher resolution than the selfie camera.

553
00:17:58,290 --> 00:17:59,670
It was always like half as good.

554
00:17:59,730 --> 00:18:00,330
Yeah, it sucked.

555
00:18:00,690 --> 00:18:00,810
Yeah.

556
00:18:01,190 --> 00:18:02,910
It was just a cheaper camera.

557
00:18:03,110 --> 00:18:03,410
Yes.

558
00:18:04,330 --> 00:18:05,470
It was always...

559
00:18:05,470 --> 00:18:05,570
Yeah.

560
00:18:05,870 --> 00:18:07,470
Never could figure out why that was.

561
00:18:07,510 --> 00:18:09,690
Well, they didn't understand the importance that this

562
00:18:09,690 --> 00:18:12,990
would make it the true bonanza that it

563
00:18:12,990 --> 00:18:13,210
is.

564
00:18:13,310 --> 00:18:15,790
The front-facing camera is really the big

565
00:18:15,790 --> 00:18:16,170
deal.

566
00:18:17,130 --> 00:18:19,410
And in conjunction with...

567
00:18:19,410 --> 00:18:20,790
I mean, what is TikTok about?

568
00:18:20,870 --> 00:18:22,910
All these clips, every single one you've brought

569
00:18:22,910 --> 00:18:24,590
is all about me.

570
00:18:24,730 --> 00:18:25,410
Watch me dance.

571
00:18:25,530 --> 00:18:26,130
Watch me cook.

572
00:18:26,550 --> 00:18:27,310
Watch me do my hair.

573
00:18:27,490 --> 00:18:28,030
Watch me do my makeup.

574
00:18:28,030 --> 00:18:29,770
The dancing dipshit clips are...

575
00:18:29,770 --> 00:18:31,510
I mean, we don't play those on this

576
00:18:31,510 --> 00:18:33,110
show because it's just some dipshit dancing.

577
00:18:33,190 --> 00:18:34,570
Watch my morning routine.

578
00:18:34,570 --> 00:18:36,650
Looking at her cool moves.

579
00:18:36,970 --> 00:18:38,750
It's always some girl as a teen.

580
00:18:38,830 --> 00:18:39,630
Watch me pump my husband.

581
00:18:39,630 --> 00:18:41,050
And I don't understand what the appeal of

582
00:18:41,050 --> 00:18:41,470
this is.

583
00:18:41,510 --> 00:18:42,970
If somebody could explain that to me.

584
00:18:43,450 --> 00:18:44,830
I'm explaining it to you.

585
00:18:44,830 --> 00:18:45,870
No, I know.

586
00:18:46,070 --> 00:18:47,190
But why would you...

587
00:18:47,190 --> 00:18:49,790
Yes, but that's different than expressing yourself by

588
00:18:49,790 --> 00:18:53,250
talking yakking, as opposed to taking somebody's song

589
00:18:53,250 --> 00:18:54,890
and then doing some dance.

590
00:18:54,910 --> 00:18:55,890
Look at me dance.

591
00:18:56,070 --> 00:18:56,890
Look at me dance.

592
00:18:56,950 --> 00:18:57,810
Look how good I dance.

593
00:18:57,850 --> 00:18:58,530
I'm a good dancer.

594
00:18:58,790 --> 00:19:00,030
They're not good dancers.

595
00:19:01,350 --> 00:19:03,610
No one said narcissists were realistic.

596
00:19:05,630 --> 00:19:05,910
No.

597
00:19:06,330 --> 00:19:06,790
No, this is...

598
00:19:06,790 --> 00:19:09,410
Really, the dancing thing is despicable.

599
00:19:14,510 --> 00:19:16,690
Anyway, thanks to smartphones, we also have lots

600
00:19:16,690 --> 00:19:18,250
of video of lots of events, lots of

601
00:19:18,250 --> 00:19:19,270
things that are taking place.

602
00:19:19,350 --> 00:19:21,070
And I'm sure lots of people are tuning

603
00:19:21,070 --> 00:19:23,730
in to this live broadcast saying, oh, I

604
00:19:23,730 --> 00:19:25,010
wonder what the guys think about New Orleans.

605
00:19:25,150 --> 00:19:25,890
I wonder what they're talking about.

606
00:19:26,530 --> 00:19:27,430
And I'm going to...

607
00:19:27,430 --> 00:19:28,830
I have way too many clips for the

608
00:19:28,830 --> 00:19:29,270
New Orleans.

609
00:19:29,650 --> 00:19:30,850
Well, that's good.

610
00:19:31,050 --> 00:19:35,370
I have clips that I think will matter.

611
00:19:35,370 --> 00:19:40,070
But I want to remind everybody how we

612
00:19:40,070 --> 00:19:41,010
view these things.

613
00:19:41,230 --> 00:19:45,090
And it was, in fact, November 14th, 2024,

614
00:19:45,970 --> 00:19:50,110
exactly six weeks ago that this report came

615
00:19:50,110 --> 00:19:50,910
over the wire.

616
00:19:51,590 --> 00:19:54,830
Breaking this hour, FBI Houston has arrested a

617
00:19:54,830 --> 00:19:57,870
man accused of attempting to provide material support

618
00:19:57,870 --> 00:19:59,710
for the terror group ISIS.

619
00:20:00,090 --> 00:20:02,090
That was six weeks ago.

620
00:20:02,090 --> 00:20:09,090
Now, when I see something happening with ISIS,

621
00:20:09,930 --> 00:20:14,530
with apparently an ISIS flag, the FBI is

622
00:20:14,530 --> 00:20:19,230
on the scene immediately, I can only think

623
00:20:19,230 --> 00:20:22,530
six-week cycle gone rogue.

624
00:20:23,210 --> 00:20:24,790
Because it had all the other elements.

625
00:20:25,010 --> 00:20:25,380
It had...

626
00:20:26,290 --> 00:20:28,690
No, I'm totally into the six...

627
00:20:28,690 --> 00:20:30,790
I didn't get the previous clip from the

628
00:20:30,790 --> 00:20:34,870
November 14th, but I was totally convinced.

629
00:20:35,010 --> 00:20:36,990
Because you're right, as soon as the story

630
00:20:36,990 --> 00:20:40,490
starts off, FBI starts off with...

631
00:20:40,490 --> 00:20:42,270
Why not local police?

632
00:20:42,790 --> 00:20:44,810
I mean, local police were obviously involved in

633
00:20:44,810 --> 00:20:47,550
New Orleans, but the FBI angle was just

634
00:20:47,550 --> 00:20:48,130
too much.

635
00:20:48,630 --> 00:20:51,830
I need to roll out, I guess, right

636
00:20:51,830 --> 00:20:55,310
off the bat, this guy that the WGN

637
00:20:55,310 --> 00:21:00,190
had on in Chicago, who is professor of

638
00:21:00,190 --> 00:21:04,030
history from DePaul, but he's billed, I believe,

639
00:21:04,110 --> 00:21:05,490
as terrorism expert.

640
00:21:06,310 --> 00:21:07,570
He's got the gray hair.

641
00:21:07,690 --> 00:21:09,410
He's got all the features, John, all of

642
00:21:09,410 --> 00:21:09,550
it.

643
00:21:10,150 --> 00:21:10,930
And I have...

644
00:21:10,930 --> 00:21:12,970
Yes, I have my terrorist experts too.

645
00:21:13,130 --> 00:21:15,290
Okay, let me roll out mine.

646
00:21:15,370 --> 00:21:16,350
What's this guy's name?

647
00:21:16,830 --> 00:21:18,930
This is something weird.

648
00:21:20,590 --> 00:21:21,230
Let's see.

649
00:21:21,730 --> 00:21:22,770
It is mentioned in the clip.

650
00:21:22,930 --> 00:21:24,970
What is your sense about what the city

651
00:21:24,970 --> 00:21:26,390
of New Orleans...

652
00:21:26,390 --> 00:21:27,050
Hold on a second.

653
00:21:28,370 --> 00:21:29,530
I'm going to make sure I got the

654
00:21:29,530 --> 00:21:29,990
right one.

655
00:21:30,050 --> 00:21:31,110
Here we go, this one.

656
00:21:31,370 --> 00:21:33,590
Dr. Tom Makaitis, terrorism expert and...

657
00:21:33,590 --> 00:21:34,070
Tom Makaitis?

658
00:21:34,810 --> 00:21:37,290
It's Makaitis, M-O-C-K-A-I

659
00:21:37,290 --> 00:21:37,870
-T-I-S.

660
00:21:38,790 --> 00:21:39,750
I'm not kidding.

661
00:21:40,710 --> 00:21:41,590
Makaitis, Makaitis.

662
00:21:41,710 --> 00:21:44,830
Dr. Tom Makaitis, terrorism expert and history professor

663
00:21:44,830 --> 00:21:47,390
at DePaul University is joining us live now

664
00:21:47,390 --> 00:21:49,850
to discuss more on this tragedy in New

665
00:21:49,850 --> 00:21:50,170
Orleans.

666
00:21:50,390 --> 00:21:51,530
Tom, thanks for joining us.

667
00:21:52,010 --> 00:21:52,690
What are your thoughts...

668
00:21:52,690 --> 00:21:53,990
And then what happened to Professor?

669
00:21:54,890 --> 00:21:56,170
Tom, thanks for joining us.

670
00:21:56,290 --> 00:21:58,530
Okay, kind of friendly, aren't we, with the

671
00:21:58,530 --> 00:21:58,850
professor?

672
00:21:59,170 --> 00:22:00,410
Tragedy in New Orleans.

673
00:22:00,490 --> 00:22:01,870
Tom, thanks for joining us.

674
00:22:02,310 --> 00:22:04,850
What are your thoughts on this suspect's background?

675
00:22:05,130 --> 00:22:07,510
We heard President Biden elaborating on some posts

676
00:22:07,510 --> 00:22:10,650
to social media where he was praising ISIS

677
00:22:10,650 --> 00:22:12,730
and also his military background.

678
00:22:13,250 --> 00:22:15,470
Just give us your reaction to the details

679
00:22:15,470 --> 00:22:16,710
that we know about him so far.

680
00:22:16,710 --> 00:22:17,330
Yes, details.

681
00:22:17,430 --> 00:22:18,650
Well, it reminds me of the Fort Hood

682
00:22:18,650 --> 00:22:21,190
shooter in that regard, Hassan Nadal.

683
00:22:21,990 --> 00:22:24,990
This is another example of the self-radicalized

684
00:22:24,990 --> 00:22:28,810
or radicalized online lone wolf terrorist, although it

685
00:22:28,810 --> 00:22:30,890
looks like he acted alone, but they're not

686
00:22:30,890 --> 00:22:32,170
entirely sure about that.

687
00:22:32,590 --> 00:22:35,550
But what's really interesting is his attack was

688
00:22:35,550 --> 00:22:39,310
almost, you know, a page taken out of

689
00:22:39,310 --> 00:22:41,810
the Inspire magazine published in 2010.

690
00:22:42,090 --> 00:22:44,230
That was that issue that had this Chicago

691
00:22:44,230 --> 00:22:49,710
skyline and also had an article titled The

692
00:22:49,710 --> 00:22:53,430
Ultimate Mowing Machine, which contained instructions for how

693
00:22:53,430 --> 00:22:56,170
to use a pickup truck to mow down

694
00:22:56,170 --> 00:22:59,390
pedestrians and then follow it up with a

695
00:22:59,390 --> 00:23:01,490
firearm battle, which is exactly what he did.

696
00:23:02,030 --> 00:23:03,790
And, of course, the flag is pretty compelling

697
00:23:03,790 --> 00:23:07,090
evidence that he affiliated with ISIS.

698
00:23:07,190 --> 00:23:09,590
Now, they didn't immediately claim responsibility, which is

699
00:23:09,590 --> 00:23:11,350
further evidence that he's a lone wolf.

700
00:23:11,830 --> 00:23:13,830
Typically, they will only weigh in when they've

701
00:23:13,830 --> 00:23:16,370
made a determination that, yes, he's acted on

702
00:23:16,370 --> 00:23:18,170
our behalf and we bless his actions.

703
00:23:18,390 --> 00:23:21,110
So when I heard this, I hear Inspire

704
00:23:21,110 --> 00:23:24,370
magazine, lone wolf, The Ultimate Mowing Machine.

705
00:23:25,030 --> 00:23:27,250
I dive into our No Agenda clip archive.

706
00:23:27,530 --> 00:23:32,390
2016, Trump enters office in this year as

707
00:23:32,390 --> 00:23:32,710
well.

708
00:23:32,990 --> 00:23:35,090
When I saw this attack and the news

709
00:23:35,090 --> 00:23:38,770
unfolding, I immediately recalled a series of articles

710
00:23:38,770 --> 00:23:40,370
in the Al-Qaeda and the Arabian Peninsula

711
00:23:40,370 --> 00:23:43,670
magazine Inspire called Open Source Shihad, which were

712
00:23:43,670 --> 00:23:44,770
published in 2010.

713
00:23:45,330 --> 00:23:48,570
And one of those articles described exactly what

714
00:23:48,570 --> 00:23:49,990
happened in Paris today.

715
00:23:50,730 --> 00:23:52,630
This was the magazine that was published by

716
00:23:52,630 --> 00:23:54,730
Anwar al-Awlaki and Samir Khan, who are

717
00:23:54,730 --> 00:23:57,350
two American-born Al-Qaeda terrorists.

718
00:23:57,590 --> 00:23:59,990
And this article, The Ultimate Mowing Machine, let

719
00:23:59,990 --> 00:24:00,630
me just read you this.

720
00:24:00,750 --> 00:24:01,950
There it is, mowing machine.

721
00:24:02,270 --> 00:24:03,910
The idea is to use a pickup truck

722
00:24:03,910 --> 00:24:06,210
as a mowing machine, not to mow grass,

723
00:24:06,330 --> 00:24:08,290
but to mow down the enemies of Allah.

724
00:24:08,730 --> 00:24:10,390
Pick your location and timing carefully.

725
00:24:10,390 --> 00:24:12,350
Go for the most crowded locations.

726
00:24:12,530 --> 00:24:14,870
To achieve maximum carnage, you need to pick

727
00:24:14,870 --> 00:24:16,510
up as much speed as you can while

728
00:24:16,510 --> 00:24:18,610
still retaining good control of your vehicle in

729
00:24:18,610 --> 00:24:20,550
order to strike as many people as possible

730
00:24:20,550 --> 00:24:21,590
in your first run.

731
00:24:21,970 --> 00:24:24,410
The ideal location is a place where there

732
00:24:24,410 --> 00:24:26,390
are maximum number of pedestrians and the least

733
00:24:26,390 --> 00:24:27,070
number of vehicles.

734
00:24:27,290 --> 00:24:28,870
If you can get through the pedestrian-only

735
00:24:28,870 --> 00:24:31,570
areas that exist in some downtown city areas,

736
00:24:31,810 --> 00:24:32,930
that would be fabulous.

737
00:24:33,530 --> 00:24:35,250
And finally, this is the kicker, if you

738
00:24:35,250 --> 00:24:37,690
have access to firearms, carry them with you

739
00:24:37,690 --> 00:24:39,250
so that you may use them to finish

740
00:24:39,250 --> 00:24:41,190
off your work if your vehicle gets grounded

741
00:24:41,190 --> 00:24:42,150
during the attack.

742
00:24:42,270 --> 00:24:44,050
The idea would be to implement it in

743
00:24:44,050 --> 00:24:46,250
countries like Israel, the U.S., Britain, Canada,

744
00:24:46,450 --> 00:24:47,970
Australia, and France.

745
00:24:48,330 --> 00:24:51,070
That is exactly what happened tonight.

746
00:24:51,470 --> 00:24:53,990
Al-Qaeda published it in 2010 in their

747
00:24:53,990 --> 00:24:54,810
magazine, Inspire.

748
00:24:54,990 --> 00:24:56,090
Come on.

749
00:24:56,550 --> 00:24:58,610
FBI, we know this script.

750
00:24:58,990 --> 00:25:00,110
Just to pile on.

751
00:25:00,150 --> 00:25:00,690
Yeah, please.

752
00:25:00,710 --> 00:25:01,930
And that was from 2016.

753
00:25:02,050 --> 00:25:03,150
2016, yeah.

754
00:25:03,150 --> 00:25:04,350
NPR?

755
00:25:05,110 --> 00:25:10,010
The clip is called Car Ramming Inspire Magazine.

756
00:25:10,630 --> 00:25:13,650
You know, in 2010, Al-Qaeda came out

757
00:25:13,650 --> 00:25:17,450
in Inspire Magazine and asked people to start

758
00:25:17,450 --> 00:25:19,650
using vehicles to ram.

759
00:25:19,790 --> 00:25:24,230
They, in fact, named the F-350 specifically

760
00:25:24,230 --> 00:25:27,510
as a heavy-duty weapon that could be

761
00:25:27,510 --> 00:25:28,890
used by their people.

762
00:25:28,890 --> 00:25:32,790
And then that was added to by the

763
00:25:32,790 --> 00:25:33,770
Islamic State.

764
00:25:34,470 --> 00:25:36,930
And so it's not something that we should

765
00:25:36,930 --> 00:25:38,490
be surprised by.

766
00:25:39,010 --> 00:25:41,550
And I'll just add that the president, or

767
00:25:41,550 --> 00:25:45,090
whoever that guy is, came out right away

768
00:25:45,090 --> 00:25:47,630
for a four-minute conference, a four-minute

769
00:25:47,630 --> 00:25:50,870
speech about what happened, which was interrupted by

770
00:25:50,870 --> 00:25:52,050
the teleprompter failing.

771
00:25:52,490 --> 00:25:54,190
I think it's important we listen to what

772
00:25:54,190 --> 00:25:55,710
President Biden said.

773
00:25:55,770 --> 00:25:57,030
Here's what we know so far.

774
00:25:57,710 --> 00:26:00,730
The FBI has reported to me the killer

775
00:26:00,730 --> 00:26:03,770
was an American citizen, born in Texas.

776
00:26:04,690 --> 00:26:06,290
He served in the United States Army on

777
00:26:06,290 --> 00:26:07,710
active duty for many years.

778
00:26:08,650 --> 00:26:10,570
He also served in the Army Reserve until

779
00:26:10,570 --> 00:26:11,450
a few years ago.

780
00:26:12,410 --> 00:26:15,010
The FBI also reported to me that mere

781
00:26:15,010 --> 00:26:18,110
hours before the attack, he posted videos on

782
00:26:18,110 --> 00:26:21,750
social media indicating that he was inspired by

783
00:26:21,750 --> 00:26:22,090
ISIS.

784
00:26:22,410 --> 00:26:24,790
I have not seen any of these videos,

785
00:26:24,890 --> 00:26:25,390
by the way.

786
00:26:25,390 --> 00:26:27,390
I have not seen any videos he posted

787
00:26:27,390 --> 00:26:28,810
on social media, but okay.

788
00:26:29,290 --> 00:26:30,590
Expression of desire to kill.

789
00:26:31,290 --> 00:26:31,970
Desire to kill.

790
00:26:33,250 --> 00:26:35,430
The ISIS flag was found in his vehicle.

791
00:26:36,050 --> 00:26:39,010
Okay, now, this is a discrepancy.

792
00:26:40,350 --> 00:26:42,570
The flag was found in his vehicle.

793
00:26:42,770 --> 00:26:44,210
Was he flying on the back of his

794
00:26:44,210 --> 00:26:44,630
vehicle?

795
00:26:45,210 --> 00:26:46,610
The FBI had it covered.

796
00:26:47,350 --> 00:26:50,490
I saw the video where he hangs a

797
00:26:50,490 --> 00:26:53,650
quick right and accelerates onto Bourbon Street.

798
00:26:53,650 --> 00:26:57,010
The flag was not unfurled in that video,

799
00:26:57,030 --> 00:26:58,870
so this stinks.

800
00:26:59,130 --> 00:27:00,370
Was he rented to conduct this attack?

801
00:27:00,370 --> 00:27:01,270
I agree with this, by the way.

802
00:27:02,810 --> 00:27:05,790
I followed this, too, and there's discrepancy.

803
00:27:06,590 --> 00:27:09,090
It was on the trailer hitch.

804
00:27:09,130 --> 00:27:10,230
It was on a flagpole.

805
00:27:10,230 --> 00:27:11,350
It was in the back.

806
00:27:11,470 --> 00:27:12,010
It was in the trunk.

807
00:27:12,050 --> 00:27:12,810
It was on the ground.

808
00:27:13,250 --> 00:27:15,010
Yeah, a little more from the president.

809
00:27:15,210 --> 00:27:17,350
The ISIS flag was found in his vehicle.

810
00:27:17,850 --> 00:27:19,550
Was he rented to conduct this attack?

811
00:27:20,990 --> 00:27:22,170
Why is this relevant?

812
00:27:22,170 --> 00:27:24,210
Was he rented to conduct this attack?

813
00:27:24,550 --> 00:27:26,390
I mean, this is a script.

814
00:27:26,670 --> 00:27:28,290
Some explosives were found in the vehicle as

815
00:27:28,290 --> 00:27:32,330
well, and more explosives were found nearby.

816
00:27:33,370 --> 00:27:36,410
The situation is very fluid in the investigation

817
00:27:36,410 --> 00:27:39,650
as a preliminary stage, and the fact is

818
00:27:39,650 --> 00:27:41,850
that right now- Excuse me.

819
00:27:42,110 --> 00:27:43,870
Mr. President, we're having a problem with the

820
00:27:43,870 --> 00:27:44,170
prompter.

821
00:27:44,310 --> 00:27:44,890
Just one second.

822
00:27:45,330 --> 00:27:45,990
There you go.

823
00:27:46,170 --> 00:27:46,970
Okay, go ahead.

824
00:27:47,170 --> 00:27:49,530
The law enforcement and intelligence community continue to

825
00:27:49,530 --> 00:27:54,690
look for any connections, associations, or co-conspirators.

826
00:27:55,650 --> 00:27:57,390
We have nothing additional to report at this

827
00:27:57,390 --> 00:27:57,690
time.

828
00:27:58,470 --> 00:28:01,090
The investigation is continuing to be active, and

829
00:28:01,090 --> 00:28:02,510
no one should jump to conclusions.

830
00:28:03,790 --> 00:28:07,530
I've directed my attorney general, the FBI director,

831
00:28:08,530 --> 00:28:11,090
the Secretary of Homeland Security, the head of

832
00:28:11,090 --> 00:28:15,150
the National Counterterrorism Center, and the intelligence community

833
00:28:15,150 --> 00:28:18,490
to work on this intensively until we have

834
00:28:18,490 --> 00:28:20,230
a full and complete information.

835
00:28:21,050 --> 00:28:23,550
And once we have that information, I will

836
00:28:23,550 --> 00:28:26,210
share that information as soon as we can

837
00:28:26,210 --> 00:28:27,090
confirm it.

838
00:28:27,850 --> 00:28:31,110
Additionally, we're tracking the explosion of a cyber

839
00:28:31,110 --> 00:28:33,930
truck outside the Trump Hotel in Las Vegas.

840
00:28:33,950 --> 00:28:34,670
Oh, there we go.

841
00:28:35,330 --> 00:28:38,750
Law enforcement and the intelligence community are investigating

842
00:28:38,750 --> 00:28:41,950
this as well, including whether there's any possible

843
00:28:41,950 --> 00:28:44,030
connection with the attack in New Orleans.

844
00:28:44,970 --> 00:28:47,010
Thus far, there's nothing to report on that

845
00:28:47,010 --> 00:28:48,170
score at this time.

846
00:28:48,290 --> 00:28:51,550
Yeah, this is the Biden weave, where he

847
00:28:51,550 --> 00:28:55,350
weaves all kinds of things together, and this

848
00:28:55,350 --> 00:28:58,210
is exactly how you get stuff started online.

849
00:28:58,350 --> 00:28:59,590
Everyone starts freaking out.

850
00:29:00,110 --> 00:29:01,870
I have one more clip to play, then

851
00:29:01,870 --> 00:29:03,030
I want you to play your clips.

852
00:29:03,390 --> 00:29:05,070
This, I think, is a killer clip.

853
00:29:05,570 --> 00:29:09,130
This is Senator Kennedy, Joe Kennedy, the guy

854
00:29:09,130 --> 00:29:10,430
who's usually just funny.

855
00:29:11,150 --> 00:29:11,930
John Kennedy.

856
00:29:11,970 --> 00:29:12,790
John Kennedy, I'm sorry.

857
00:29:12,790 --> 00:29:14,110
He's from Louisiana.

858
00:29:14,870 --> 00:29:16,890
He's down, boots on the ground.

859
00:29:17,150 --> 00:29:18,730
I've never seen this.

860
00:29:19,190 --> 00:29:21,650
He has, like, an army jacket on with

861
00:29:21,650 --> 00:29:21,790
Americans.

862
00:29:21,790 --> 00:29:23,150
Yeah, he's got a funny outfit on.

863
00:29:23,250 --> 00:29:25,850
He's like, okay, I better put this on

864
00:29:25,850 --> 00:29:28,370
because I'm official now, I'm in official capacity.

865
00:29:28,910 --> 00:29:31,270
But what he said says it all.

866
00:29:31,470 --> 00:29:34,610
This sounds to be some sort of sleeper

867
00:29:34,610 --> 00:29:36,970
cell, a terror cell on U.S. soil.

868
00:29:37,150 --> 00:29:37,650
Terror cell.

869
00:29:37,650 --> 00:29:38,710
Is that what you're hearing?

870
00:29:38,710 --> 00:29:43,290
Well, there's a fine line between anger and

871
00:29:43,290 --> 00:29:46,310
grief, and I'm pretty much straddling that line

872
00:29:46,310 --> 00:29:47,130
right now.

873
00:29:48,190 --> 00:29:51,070
If you don't believe in objective evil, all

874
00:29:51,070 --> 00:29:52,610
you need to do is go walk about

875
00:29:52,610 --> 00:29:54,250
30 or 40 yards that way.

876
00:29:55,010 --> 00:29:55,330
Objective evil.

877
00:29:55,330 --> 00:29:56,270
I'm here for two reasons.

878
00:29:56,410 --> 00:29:58,870
Number one, these are my people, and these

879
00:29:58,870 --> 00:30:00,050
are my people's guests.

880
00:30:01,030 --> 00:30:03,250
Number two, I don't want to hear from

881
00:30:03,250 --> 00:30:05,370
anybody in the federal government that they don't

882
00:30:05,370 --> 00:30:06,210
have the resources.

883
00:30:06,210 --> 00:30:10,810
Now, the White House, the FBI, justice, Homeland

884
00:30:10,810 --> 00:30:12,590
Security are in charge now.

885
00:30:13,410 --> 00:30:14,610
We're cooperating with them.

886
00:30:15,090 --> 00:30:16,710
I want to give them a reasonable period

887
00:30:16,710 --> 00:30:17,110
of time.

888
00:30:17,230 --> 00:30:18,650
There's a lot of information out there.

889
00:30:18,750 --> 00:30:20,110
Some of it is actually true.

890
00:30:20,610 --> 00:30:22,310
I want to give them a reasonable period

891
00:30:22,310 --> 00:30:24,870
of time, but they need to saddle up

892
00:30:24,870 --> 00:30:25,470
and ride.

893
00:30:25,650 --> 00:30:27,510
We need to find out what happened here,

894
00:30:27,710 --> 00:30:29,370
and it's not going to be covered up.

895
00:30:29,550 --> 00:30:32,070
We're going to tell the American people exactly

896
00:30:32,070 --> 00:30:33,530
what happened.

897
00:30:33,590 --> 00:30:33,790
Sure.

898
00:30:33,790 --> 00:30:36,050
And that's why I'm down here.

899
00:30:36,370 --> 00:30:38,850
We know a lot more than what's being

900
00:30:38,850 --> 00:30:39,390
reported.

901
00:30:39,730 --> 00:30:42,730
They are in the middle of an active

902
00:30:42,730 --> 00:30:44,570
investigation, and I don't want to do anything

903
00:30:44,570 --> 00:30:45,350
to screw it up.

904
00:30:45,670 --> 00:30:45,830
Okay.

905
00:30:45,830 --> 00:30:47,310
But I'm also not going to let them

906
00:30:47,310 --> 00:30:48,810
take the pressure off.

907
00:30:49,030 --> 00:30:49,950
Okay, got it, Senator.

908
00:30:50,310 --> 00:30:53,570
You did promise transparency earlier in the press

909
00:30:53,570 --> 00:30:56,770
conference that you took part in this afternoon.

910
00:30:56,770 --> 00:31:00,430
Are you getting the sense that the FBI

911
00:31:00,430 --> 00:31:04,270
have been tracking this suspect, or are you

912
00:31:04,270 --> 00:31:06,770
getting the sense that they perhaps somehow missed

913
00:31:06,770 --> 00:31:07,150
this?

914
00:31:07,630 --> 00:31:08,730
I can't answer that.

915
00:31:08,850 --> 00:31:11,770
I can't answer that, but I shouldn't.

916
00:31:13,090 --> 00:31:14,350
I'm going to say it again.

917
00:31:14,610 --> 00:31:18,050
We're giving the FBI and Homeland Security a

918
00:31:18,050 --> 00:31:19,910
reasonable amount of time to do their job.

919
00:31:20,030 --> 00:31:22,470
Yeah, so that they can prove their worthiness

920
00:31:22,470 --> 00:31:24,890
and existence so Kash Patel can't come in

921
00:31:24,890 --> 00:31:27,110
and fire everybody and move the remaining to

922
00:31:27,110 --> 00:31:27,650
a new building.

923
00:31:27,790 --> 00:31:31,010
This is a script gone wrong, typical FBI

924
00:31:31,010 --> 00:31:31,650
bungle.

925
00:31:31,910 --> 00:31:33,030
They set a guy up.

926
00:31:33,090 --> 00:31:35,470
They want to have IEDs planted everywhere.

927
00:31:35,630 --> 00:31:38,230
The guy goes rogue and drives through a

928
00:31:38,230 --> 00:31:38,870
bunch of people.

929
00:31:39,490 --> 00:31:40,670
This is bull crap.

930
00:31:41,710 --> 00:31:43,110
This is your government.

931
00:31:44,130 --> 00:31:45,910
I don't believe for a second that this

932
00:31:45,910 --> 00:31:47,550
is ISIS-inspired.

933
00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:51,460
I can't argue with you.

934
00:31:52,140 --> 00:31:54,620
I believe this is the same thing.

935
00:31:54,740 --> 00:31:56,560
It was one of the FBI stings that

936
00:31:56,560 --> 00:31:59,640
were set up expecting, I'll just push this

937
00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:01,020
button and then we'll arrest you.

938
00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:05,840
But the guy went rogue and fell off

939
00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:06,220
the script.

940
00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:08,820
These guys are not that controllable necessarily.

941
00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:13,180
There's something going on, and the rest of

942
00:32:13,180 --> 00:32:14,580
this has to be a cover-up, so

943
00:32:14,580 --> 00:32:16,100
they're going to have to cover their tracks,

944
00:32:16,180 --> 00:32:18,440
and that's what this is really going to

945
00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:18,900
be about.

946
00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:22,300
We're assuming this is based on our— by

947
00:32:22,300 --> 00:32:23,300
the way, this is no agenda.

948
00:32:23,660 --> 00:32:26,040
We've been told about the six-week cycle,

949
00:32:26,380 --> 00:32:30,060
and it's been in play on and off.

950
00:32:30,760 --> 00:32:34,720
It's not pure, but it does exist, and

951
00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:37,140
it's done for budgetary purposes.

952
00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:39,540
It goes wrong once in a while.

953
00:32:39,780 --> 00:32:42,740
This Jabbar guy was flagged, I'm not sure

954
00:32:42,740 --> 00:32:44,860
what that means, and barred from re-enlistment

955
00:32:44,860 --> 00:32:47,420
between 2014 and 2015 for an incident.

956
00:32:47,420 --> 00:32:48,960
I don't know what that is yet.

957
00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:50,320
It would be nice to know.

958
00:32:50,560 --> 00:32:53,140
The flag was removed, and then he joined

959
00:32:53,140 --> 00:32:53,860
the reserves.

960
00:32:56,580 --> 00:32:59,100
I think—was this guy also with Fort Hood,

961
00:32:59,200 --> 00:32:59,860
or the other guy?

962
00:32:59,940 --> 00:33:00,960
I think the Vegas guy.

963
00:33:01,140 --> 00:33:09,520
Another military guy, Matthew Leibesberger, active-duty special

964
00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:12,660
forces operations sergeant, who was on leave from

965
00:33:12,660 --> 00:33:15,400
Germany, where he was serving with the 10th

966
00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:16,540
Special Forces Group.

967
00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:19,920
This stinks.

968
00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:23,560
Well, let's go to these clips here, and

969
00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:24,940
then we'll get something out of it.

970
00:33:25,020 --> 00:33:25,120
Maybe.

971
00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:25,860
Maybe we will.

972
00:33:26,020 --> 00:33:26,240
Maybe.

973
00:33:26,460 --> 00:33:28,220
So let's start with the local reporting.

974
00:33:28,380 --> 00:33:30,520
This came out—one of our producers sent this

975
00:33:30,520 --> 00:33:31,080
to me.

976
00:33:31,160 --> 00:33:33,140
It's better than the NPR stuff I had,

977
00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:35,100
so I bounced that, and I put this

978
00:33:35,100 --> 00:33:35,260
in.

979
00:33:35,300 --> 00:33:38,480
This is ISIS, because it has this crazy

980
00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:42,380
-looking commissioner of police of New Orleans, some

981
00:33:42,380 --> 00:33:43,320
old woman.

982
00:33:43,500 --> 00:33:45,100
She looks like my mom.

983
00:33:45,300 --> 00:33:46,260
No, she used to be.

984
00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:48,700
She's the lady who was in Oakland, and

985
00:33:48,700 --> 00:33:50,960
she mowed down two people herself with her

986
00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:51,260
car.

987
00:33:51,980 --> 00:33:53,020
That's who that is.

988
00:33:53,820 --> 00:33:56,020
I don't—well, that's good to know, but she

989
00:33:56,020 --> 00:33:58,140
looks like she's wearing a gray wig.

990
00:33:58,260 --> 00:34:01,820
She looks terrible, and she sounds worse, and

991
00:34:01,820 --> 00:34:03,580
she's in this clip, and then I have

992
00:34:03,580 --> 00:34:05,720
a follow-up clip with her talking more.

993
00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:08,900
I didn't know she was the Oakland woman.

994
00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:09,480
Yes.

995
00:34:09,480 --> 00:34:12,520
She just—I don't know what's the story here,

996
00:34:12,560 --> 00:34:13,780
but here's the ISIS terrorist.

997
00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:15,679
This is the background, and it brings in

998
00:34:15,679 --> 00:34:16,320
the commish.

999
00:34:16,639 --> 00:34:18,460
The FBI is calling the deadly attack in

1000
00:34:18,460 --> 00:34:20,219
New Orleans an act of terrorism.

1001
00:34:20,460 --> 00:34:21,000
Hello, everybody.

1002
00:34:21,100 --> 00:34:21,719
I'm Heather Hayes.

1003
00:34:22,060 --> 00:34:24,659
The FBI says that suspect, who is now

1004
00:34:24,659 --> 00:34:27,639
dead, was 42-year-old Sham Sadeen Jabbar,

1005
00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:29,679
a U.S. citizen and Army veteran from

1006
00:34:29,679 --> 00:34:30,460
the Houston area.

1007
00:34:30,800 --> 00:34:33,100
They do not believe he acted alone, and

1008
00:34:33,100 --> 00:34:36,060
there's now reportedly surveillance video of other individuals

1009
00:34:36,060 --> 00:34:37,239
who might be involved.

1010
00:34:37,239 --> 00:34:39,900
At least 15 people are now confirmed dead,

1011
00:34:40,020 --> 00:34:43,100
dozens of others injured, including two police officers

1012
00:34:43,100 --> 00:34:43,719
who were shot.

1013
00:34:44,280 --> 00:34:46,600
Fox 4's Stephen Dyle in studio now with

1014
00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:46,920
more.

1015
00:34:47,300 --> 00:34:47,400
Stephen.

1016
00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:50,540
The New Orleans police chief says Sham Sadeen

1017
00:34:50,540 --> 00:34:53,060
Jabbar drove onto the sidewalk to get around

1018
00:34:53,060 --> 00:34:55,739
a police car that was providing security by

1019
00:34:55,739 --> 00:34:58,500
blocking the vehicle's access to Bourbon Street.

1020
00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:01,240
The coroner of Orleans Parish just shared that

1021
00:35:01,240 --> 00:35:03,520
the death toll has climbed to 15 people.

1022
00:35:04,260 --> 00:35:06,960
Three hours into the new year, Bourbon Street

1023
00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:09,400
in New Orleans turned into a massive crime

1024
00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:09,760
scene.

1025
00:35:10,160 --> 00:35:15,600
This particular terrorist drove around onto the sidewalk.

1026
00:35:16,260 --> 00:35:18,980
The FBI says 42-year-old Sham Sadeen

1027
00:35:18,980 --> 00:35:21,120
Jabbar, a U.S. citizen from the Houston

1028
00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:23,760
area, drove a white pickup truck around a

1029
00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:26,980
police car blocking traffic and slammed into pedestrians

1030
00:35:26,980 --> 00:35:28,220
on the crowded street.

1031
00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:31,500
15 people were killed, dozens injured.

1032
00:35:31,500 --> 00:35:34,560
Federal investigators are calling this an act of

1033
00:35:34,560 --> 00:35:35,120
terrorism.

1034
00:35:35,500 --> 00:35:38,000
New Orleans police and all law enforcement is

1035
00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:43,280
built, we are built for dealing with evil,

1036
00:35:44,300 --> 00:35:47,580
with things that would cause us, others, to

1037
00:35:47,580 --> 00:35:48,640
be in fear.

1038
00:35:49,360 --> 00:35:53,520
But instead, our officers, and last night NOPD

1039
00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:56,520
in particular, stood strong.

1040
00:35:57,460 --> 00:35:59,060
They did not run.

1041
00:35:59,950 --> 00:36:03,360
They did kill the terrorist.

1042
00:36:04,340 --> 00:36:08,340
So, February 20th, 2020, Oakland Police Commission voted

1043
00:36:08,340 --> 00:36:13,580
unanimously to fire Kirkpatrick, to be fired with

1044
00:36:13,580 --> 00:36:16,500
cause, because the commission's trust in Kirkpatrick was

1045
00:36:16,500 --> 00:36:17,760
irrevocably broken.

1046
00:36:18,660 --> 00:36:20,120
This was a big deal.

1047
00:36:20,420 --> 00:36:22,240
It was a lawsuit and everything over it.

1048
00:36:22,380 --> 00:36:25,380
This is, she's questionable.

1049
00:36:26,500 --> 00:36:28,900
I'd say, and then here's the, this is

1050
00:36:28,900 --> 00:36:30,820
the, I don't know why I named it

1051
00:36:30,820 --> 00:36:32,780
number three, because I can't find two.

1052
00:36:33,340 --> 00:36:35,520
Here she is finishing her little spiel with

1053
00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:36,420
this nonsense.

1054
00:36:36,720 --> 00:36:39,580
This city has been tried by fire before.

1055
00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:42,000
But fire purifies.

1056
00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:45,880
Fire makes things stronger.

1057
00:36:46,460 --> 00:36:47,680
We have a plan.

1058
00:36:48,580 --> 00:36:49,880
We know what to do.

1059
00:36:50,240 --> 00:36:52,200
We are going to get these people.

1060
00:36:53,300 --> 00:36:54,560
There is a path forward.

1061
00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:56,480
No, she's talking about these people now.

1062
00:36:56,580 --> 00:36:58,740
So, she's talking about more than just one.

1063
00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:00,860
Not a lone wolf situation, if you're talking

1064
00:37:00,860 --> 00:37:01,720
about these people.

1065
00:37:03,380 --> 00:37:04,880
This is, this is, oh.

1066
00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:08,300
Yes, because they saw somebody plant some supposed

1067
00:37:08,300 --> 00:37:11,820
IEDs, two people, a woman and a guy,

1068
00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:12,920
maybe another guy.

1069
00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:15,260
And this is, the whole thing is kind

1070
00:37:15,260 --> 00:37:16,040
of falling apart.

1071
00:37:16,540 --> 00:37:21,460
So, I ended up with finding these, and

1072
00:37:21,460 --> 00:37:24,140
I went to PBS and found Lopez, a

1073
00:37:24,140 --> 00:37:25,760
woman who had this analyst on.

1074
00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:28,060
And this guy you'll find to be a

1075
00:37:28,060 --> 00:37:30,320
little more interesting than the analyst you had

1076
00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:30,880
earlier.

1077
00:37:31,220 --> 00:37:33,340
Because this guy's from the Council on Foreign

1078
00:37:33,340 --> 00:37:35,120
Relations, works with the CIA.

1079
00:37:36,140 --> 00:37:37,060
Nice, okay.

1080
00:37:37,940 --> 00:37:40,960
And he's, and this is super scripted.

1081
00:37:41,300 --> 00:37:43,320
She reads, she's reading from a script she

1082
00:37:43,320 --> 00:37:46,000
can't even, I don't know why they don't

1083
00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:47,640
put a prompter behind the guy and let

1084
00:37:47,640 --> 00:37:48,440
her read from that.

1085
00:37:48,440 --> 00:37:50,860
Because she keeps looking down, it's very poorly

1086
00:37:50,860 --> 00:37:52,340
executed because it was a weekend.

1087
00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:54,820
So, you know, or it's a holiday, so

1088
00:37:54,820 --> 00:37:56,380
they had the holiday crew on, and so

1089
00:37:56,380 --> 00:37:59,340
they had Lopez doing the anchoring and she

1090
00:37:59,340 --> 00:38:00,600
stinks at it.

1091
00:38:01,120 --> 00:38:03,240
But here we go, this is Bourbon Street,

1092
00:38:03,580 --> 00:38:07,260
and it is four-parter, Bourbon Street Analysis

1093
00:38:07,260 --> 00:38:08,300
PBS.

1094
00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:12,260
For insight into the ongoing terrorism investigation, we're

1095
00:38:12,260 --> 00:38:15,200
joined by Bruce Hoffman, Senior Fellow for Counterterrorism

1096
00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:17,420
and Homeland Security at the Council on Foreign

1097
00:38:17,420 --> 00:38:17,900
Relations.

1098
00:38:17,900 --> 00:38:20,800
He's advised the CIA and has studied terrorism

1099
00:38:20,800 --> 00:38:22,740
and insurgency for five decades.

1100
00:38:23,180 --> 00:38:24,860
Bruce, thank you so much for joining us

1101
00:38:24,860 --> 00:38:25,480
this evening.

1102
00:38:25,680 --> 00:38:28,680
The suspect was an Army veteran and he

1103
00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:31,500
had an ISIS flag in his truck, according

1104
00:38:31,500 --> 00:38:32,360
to authorities.

1105
00:38:33,180 --> 00:38:35,020
How significant is it that he had that

1106
00:38:35,020 --> 00:38:36,860
ISIS flag and what else stands out to

1107
00:38:36,860 --> 00:38:37,000
you?

1108
00:38:37,160 --> 00:38:39,900
The ISIS flag is enormously significant because it's

1109
00:38:39,900 --> 00:38:42,060
very clear he was trying to situate this

1110
00:38:42,060 --> 00:38:45,020
act of violence in a political context, indeed

1111
00:38:45,020 --> 00:38:48,220
in a terrorist context, and show allegiance or

1112
00:38:48,220 --> 00:38:49,720
support of ISIS's aims.

1113
00:38:50,500 --> 00:38:53,120
Law enforcement has said that they don't believe

1114
00:38:53,120 --> 00:38:57,860
that the suspect, Samsouh Jabbar, was acting alone.

1115
00:38:58,380 --> 00:39:00,620
So what can we infer so far from

1116
00:39:00,620 --> 00:39:02,960
what we know about who else might be

1117
00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:05,280
involved or what this means?

1118
00:39:05,480 --> 00:39:07,920
This is what's so alarming about this particular

1119
00:39:07,920 --> 00:39:09,940
incident is it wasn't just a matter of

1120
00:39:09,940 --> 00:39:11,940
someone getting in a truck and driving from

1121
00:39:11,940 --> 00:39:14,640
Texas to Louisiana and carrying out an attack.

1122
00:39:14,740 --> 00:39:16,880
It's believed that at least two other improvised

1123
00:39:16,880 --> 00:39:19,620
explosive devices were found in the French Quarter

1124
00:39:19,620 --> 00:39:22,240
of New Orleans and that several other men

1125
00:39:22,240 --> 00:39:24,180
and a woman have been captured on video

1126
00:39:24,180 --> 00:39:25,080
planting them there.

1127
00:39:25,140 --> 00:39:29,420
So this suggests some conspiratorial dimension to the

1128
00:39:29,420 --> 00:39:31,560
attack, which means that this may not be

1129
00:39:31,560 --> 00:39:32,060
isolated.

1130
00:39:32,660 --> 00:39:35,780
Right, authorities did say in the last few

1131
00:39:35,780 --> 00:39:37,700
hours that they're not sure if that man

1132
00:39:37,700 --> 00:39:40,820
and woman were involved or connected to the

1133
00:39:40,820 --> 00:39:42,260
suspect, but there's a lot that we still

1134
00:39:42,260 --> 00:39:42,800
don't know.

1135
00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:44,860
And again, based on the information that we

1136
00:39:44,860 --> 00:39:47,480
have so far, how likely is it that

1137
00:39:47,480 --> 00:39:50,820
the suspect was inspired or directly linked to

1138
00:39:50,820 --> 00:39:51,160
ISIS?

1139
00:39:51,420 --> 00:39:51,780
Inspired.

1140
00:39:52,300 --> 00:39:55,040
Use the inspired word, please.

1141
00:39:56,480 --> 00:39:59,600
He's a tenured professor at Georgetown University, also

1142
00:39:59,600 --> 00:40:05,220
the director of Rand's Washington, D.C. office.

1143
00:40:06,940 --> 00:40:09,200
His bio is quite remarkable.

1144
00:40:09,460 --> 00:40:10,240
He's very connected.

1145
00:40:10,440 --> 00:40:11,820
This is the guy you want on a

1146
00:40:11,820 --> 00:40:12,540
holiday weekend.

1147
00:40:12,540 --> 00:40:15,480
Hey, I got a poem, I'm not doing

1148
00:40:15,480 --> 00:40:15,880
anything.

1149
00:40:16,160 --> 00:40:17,380
I got time to do a hit for

1150
00:40:17,380 --> 00:40:17,840
you, PBS.

1151
00:40:18,400 --> 00:40:20,180
Now, here's an interesting part.

1152
00:40:20,240 --> 00:40:21,340
It starts to get interesting.

1153
00:40:21,500 --> 00:40:22,400
This is the second clip.

1154
00:40:23,380 --> 00:40:27,420
Now, I want you to think about, or

1155
00:40:27,420 --> 00:40:29,700
anyone out there should think about how these

1156
00:40:29,700 --> 00:40:32,180
things evolve when it comes to the background

1157
00:40:32,180 --> 00:40:35,300
information on the person who does these attacks,

1158
00:40:35,660 --> 00:40:36,360
when they're real.

1159
00:40:37,580 --> 00:40:40,300
They're not, it takes days and days before

1160
00:40:40,300 --> 00:40:41,100
we know anything.

1161
00:40:41,100 --> 00:40:44,460
But their posts are usually still up, and

1162
00:40:44,460 --> 00:40:46,900
they're trying to scrub everything off the internet

1163
00:40:46,900 --> 00:40:48,300
as fast as they can.

1164
00:40:49,240 --> 00:40:51,740
Now, this took place at 3.14, I

1165
00:40:51,740 --> 00:40:54,120
think, or 3.15 in the morning, the

1166
00:40:54,120 --> 00:40:56,700
morning of this report that we're listening to,

1167
00:40:57,100 --> 00:41:00,420
which was probably done in the early afternoon

1168
00:41:00,420 --> 00:41:02,960
of the same day, which is probably less

1169
00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:03,100
than.

1170
00:41:03,220 --> 00:41:04,040
12 hours later, maybe.

1171
00:41:04,060 --> 00:41:05,740
Probably less than 12 hours.

1172
00:41:07,650 --> 00:41:09,870
In less than 12 hours, I'd like you

1173
00:41:09,870 --> 00:41:11,990
to explain to me how this guy knows

1174
00:41:11,990 --> 00:41:14,490
what he's about to tell us in this

1175
00:41:14,490 --> 00:41:15,690
short a period of time.

1176
00:41:15,910 --> 00:41:16,050
Sorry.

1177
00:41:16,610 --> 00:41:17,950
It's difficult to say.

1178
00:41:18,030 --> 00:41:20,010
It's clear that he was going through some

1179
00:41:20,010 --> 00:41:21,130
personal crisis.

1180
00:41:21,750 --> 00:41:23,950
He had financial problems, for example.

1181
00:41:23,950 --> 00:41:25,210
He was recently divorced.

1182
00:41:25,410 --> 00:41:27,630
He's a recent convert to a religion, for

1183
00:41:27,630 --> 00:41:28,130
example.

1184
00:41:28,330 --> 00:41:30,690
All of those things may have played in

1185
00:41:30,690 --> 00:41:34,250
his mind of doing something daring, dramatic, and

1186
00:41:34,250 --> 00:41:36,530
violent that would all of a sudden catapult

1187
00:41:36,530 --> 00:41:39,090
him into some sort of infamous notoriety.

1188
00:41:39,090 --> 00:41:41,530
But notoriety, nonetheless, as opposed to having been

1189
00:41:41,530 --> 00:41:43,990
a failure at everything else that he's tried.

1190
00:41:44,070 --> 00:41:46,310
And what we know from the recruitment and

1191
00:41:46,310 --> 00:41:49,450
radicalization of individuals is that members of terrorist

1192
00:41:49,450 --> 00:41:53,930
organizations, handlers, play on individuals' personal weaknesses or

1193
00:41:53,930 --> 00:41:56,750
their personal traumas, and attempt to get them

1194
00:41:56,750 --> 00:41:58,810
to engage in acts of violence that, in

1195
00:41:58,810 --> 00:42:01,670
normal circumstances, they might never have contemplated.

1196
00:42:01,970 --> 00:42:03,770
This is perfect, because all you have to

1197
00:42:03,770 --> 00:42:08,130
do in your mind is replace ISIS with

1198
00:42:08,130 --> 00:42:08,650
FBI.

1199
00:42:10,470 --> 00:42:12,850
I mean, yes, that's exactly what happens.

1200
00:42:13,610 --> 00:42:15,330
You jack this guy up, and then all

1201
00:42:15,330 --> 00:42:17,030
of a sudden he decides to hang a

1202
00:42:17,030 --> 00:42:18,510
right and mow everybody down.

1203
00:42:19,430 --> 00:42:20,410
That's pretty much what happened.

1204
00:42:20,790 --> 00:42:22,850
But how does this guy, this guy who's

1205
00:42:22,850 --> 00:42:25,650
called out, you know, like you said, what

1206
00:42:25,650 --> 00:42:26,630
are you doing this weekend?

1207
00:42:27,630 --> 00:42:30,290
I'm not skiing in Aspen or anything.

1208
00:42:30,570 --> 00:42:31,990
I've got plenty of time.

1209
00:42:32,090 --> 00:42:32,770
I'm just hanging around.

1210
00:42:32,770 --> 00:42:34,630
He comes on the show with this detailed

1211
00:42:34,630 --> 00:42:38,430
information about his finances and his divorces and

1212
00:42:38,430 --> 00:42:40,990
his army experience within a 12-hour slot,

1213
00:42:41,630 --> 00:42:43,650
time slot, where you just get thrown on

1214
00:42:43,650 --> 00:42:43,890
there.

1215
00:42:44,090 --> 00:42:45,390
Come on, people.

1216
00:42:45,830 --> 00:42:45,990
Yeah.

1217
00:42:46,570 --> 00:42:48,330
You know, I was talking to Tina about

1218
00:42:48,330 --> 00:42:51,050
this, and I immediately said, six-week cycle.

1219
00:42:51,190 --> 00:42:53,170
And I said, but, you know, 15 people

1220
00:42:53,170 --> 00:42:53,490
died.

1221
00:42:53,610 --> 00:42:55,830
And she turns to me and says, you

1222
00:42:55,830 --> 00:42:58,230
know they really don't care about us.

1223
00:42:58,330 --> 00:42:59,690
The government doesn't care.

1224
00:42:59,950 --> 00:43:02,130
She says, this is just 15 people.

1225
00:43:02,130 --> 00:43:03,490
It's a spit in the bucket.

1226
00:43:04,430 --> 00:43:05,950
And this is my wife who is not

1227
00:43:05,950 --> 00:43:07,650
like this normally at all.

1228
00:43:08,090 --> 00:43:09,850
She's like, hey, look at 9-11.

1229
00:43:10,090 --> 00:43:11,430
I'm like, okay, all right, simmer down.

1230
00:43:13,310 --> 00:43:15,830
Well, she's been living in Texas too long.

1231
00:43:16,670 --> 00:43:17,870
Not long enough.

1232
00:43:18,870 --> 00:43:20,670
I don't believe for a minute that the

1233
00:43:20,670 --> 00:43:25,850
FBI doesn't care that this guy, if our

1234
00:43:25,850 --> 00:43:28,130
scenario is correct, and I'm assuming it is,

1235
00:43:28,770 --> 00:43:31,090
that this guy went rogue.

1236
00:43:31,090 --> 00:43:31,930
Went rogue, yeah.

1237
00:43:32,070 --> 00:43:33,390
Yeah, I just don't believe that.

1238
00:43:33,570 --> 00:43:36,250
The same with the kid on the roof

1239
00:43:36,250 --> 00:43:37,470
at Butler, Pennsylvania.

1240
00:43:39,170 --> 00:43:39,830
Yeah, that was it.

1241
00:43:40,010 --> 00:43:40,810
The same analysis.

1242
00:43:40,990 --> 00:43:42,470
The kid decides to go and do it

1243
00:43:42,470 --> 00:43:44,570
for real instead of getting caught.

1244
00:43:45,430 --> 00:43:47,690
And by the way, what's with the security

1245
00:43:47,690 --> 00:43:48,330
barriers?

1246
00:43:48,550 --> 00:43:50,390
Oh, well, we were going to put those

1247
00:43:50,390 --> 00:43:51,770
in a few days.

1248
00:43:51,890 --> 00:43:53,070
Oh, we forgot about that.

1249
00:43:54,870 --> 00:43:56,830
This whole thing is wrong.

1250
00:43:57,990 --> 00:44:02,250
But just remember, Inspire, Ultimate Mowing Machine, 2016,

1251
00:44:02,570 --> 00:44:03,010
2010.

1252
00:44:03,990 --> 00:44:05,710
It's like we've got a- Yeah, I'm

1253
00:44:05,710 --> 00:44:08,030
glad you got that clip from 2016 with

1254
00:44:08,030 --> 00:44:11,410
this exact same thing, and with President Trump

1255
00:44:11,410 --> 00:44:11,950
coming in.

1256
00:44:12,190 --> 00:44:14,110
So let's go to- the analysis starts

1257
00:44:14,110 --> 00:44:15,610
to peter out a little bit here, so

1258
00:44:15,610 --> 00:44:16,950
let's go with clip three.

1259
00:44:17,130 --> 00:44:19,470
I think the biggest question is, was this

1260
00:44:19,470 --> 00:44:20,570
a broader conspiracy?

1261
00:44:21,030 --> 00:44:22,550
And who are the fellow conspirators?

1262
00:44:22,950 --> 00:44:24,910
And what conceivably might be next?

1263
00:44:24,910 --> 00:44:28,050
I would say, secondly, it's whether that explosion,

1264
00:44:28,190 --> 00:44:30,350
a very mysterious explosion of a cyber truck

1265
00:44:30,350 --> 00:44:32,550
outside of a Trump-owned hotel in Las

1266
00:44:32,550 --> 00:44:34,670
Vegas, is in any way connected to this

1267
00:44:34,670 --> 00:44:35,330
event as well.

1268
00:44:35,430 --> 00:44:37,990
It seems odd that two electric vehicles were

1269
00:44:37,990 --> 00:44:38,950
involved in an explosion.

1270
00:44:39,890 --> 00:44:41,850
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa,

1271
00:44:41,870 --> 00:44:41,970
whoa.

1272
00:44:41,970 --> 00:44:43,150
What two electric vehicles?

1273
00:44:43,190 --> 00:44:44,750
The Ford was not an electric vehicle.

1274
00:44:44,870 --> 00:44:45,150
Nope.

1275
00:44:45,390 --> 00:44:47,550
He rented that thing in Houston, and it's

1276
00:44:47,550 --> 00:44:48,710
a Ford F-150.

1277
00:44:48,990 --> 00:44:49,850
You saw it.

1278
00:44:49,890 --> 00:44:50,650
Everyone saw it.

1279
00:44:50,670 --> 00:44:52,050
It's not an electric Ford.

1280
00:44:52,150 --> 00:44:52,770
You can tell.

1281
00:44:52,910 --> 00:44:54,010
They don't look the same.

1282
00:44:54,010 --> 00:44:54,430
Wow.

1283
00:44:54,490 --> 00:44:54,810
Hold on.

1284
00:44:54,910 --> 00:44:55,350
Step back.

1285
00:44:55,430 --> 00:44:56,090
Just step back.

1286
00:44:56,170 --> 00:44:57,110
Step back for a second.

1287
00:44:58,090 --> 00:44:59,390
Clip of the day.

1288
00:44:59,810 --> 00:45:00,290
Wow.

1289
00:45:00,590 --> 00:45:02,890
This guy is read in and flubs it.

1290
00:45:03,710 --> 00:45:06,050
He's read in and flubbed it.

1291
00:45:06,550 --> 00:45:07,030
Wow.

1292
00:45:08,470 --> 00:45:09,490
That was a flub.

1293
00:45:09,730 --> 00:45:11,610
That's a big flub.

1294
00:45:11,610 --> 00:45:13,630
It was a big flub, and he cracked

1295
00:45:13,630 --> 00:45:14,490
me up when he said it.

1296
00:45:14,490 --> 00:45:14,870
Wow.

1297
00:45:15,770 --> 00:45:17,450
They're both electric vehicles.

1298
00:45:18,830 --> 00:45:20,730
It wasn't a Ford Lightning, was it?

1299
00:45:20,730 --> 00:45:23,870
No, you can see the truck.

1300
00:45:24,050 --> 00:45:26,050
I saw photos of it.

1301
00:45:26,070 --> 00:45:26,950
It was a Ford F-150.

1302
00:45:27,410 --> 00:45:28,030
Yeah, it didn't look like it.

1303
00:45:28,050 --> 00:45:29,690
It wasn't a 350, which he would have

1304
00:45:29,690 --> 00:45:31,310
used if he could have rented one from,

1305
00:45:31,510 --> 00:45:32,910
you know, using the Inspire magazine.

1306
00:45:33,090 --> 00:45:33,670
Wait a minute.

1307
00:45:33,790 --> 00:45:37,630
The troll room is saying, yes, Ford F

1308
00:45:37,630 --> 00:45:38,570
-150 Lightning?

1309
00:45:38,850 --> 00:45:39,150
Really?

1310
00:45:40,130 --> 00:45:40,890
I don't think so.

1311
00:45:40,990 --> 00:45:42,610
Look, let's look at the practicality.

1312
00:45:42,630 --> 00:45:43,070
Hold on.

1313
00:45:43,830 --> 00:45:46,690
Let's look at the practicality of renting an

1314
00:45:46,690 --> 00:45:50,350
electric truck in Houston and then driving it

1315
00:45:50,350 --> 00:45:51,250
to New Orleans.

1316
00:45:51,550 --> 00:45:53,150
Well, then they would be able to track

1317
00:45:53,150 --> 00:45:55,770
that through every Tesla charging station, which we

1318
00:45:55,770 --> 00:45:57,310
did hear about the Cybertruck.

1319
00:46:00,580 --> 00:46:02,220
I'm just not buying that it was...

1320
00:46:02,220 --> 00:46:04,320
Now, if it was electric, then that's the

1321
00:46:04,320 --> 00:46:05,040
first...

1322
00:46:05,040 --> 00:46:07,880
And then it makes it even more interesting

1323
00:46:07,880 --> 00:46:09,260
that why would he be the only guy

1324
00:46:09,260 --> 00:46:10,180
that reported that?

1325
00:46:11,380 --> 00:46:13,180
And why is he even reporting anything?

1326
00:46:13,180 --> 00:46:14,460
Because he's an analyst.

1327
00:46:14,640 --> 00:46:15,220
He's supposed to come out...

1328
00:46:15,220 --> 00:46:16,180
Here it is.

1329
00:46:16,220 --> 00:46:16,580
Here it is.

1330
00:46:16,580 --> 00:46:20,700
New Orleans terrorist suspect used Ford Lightning.

1331
00:46:22,940 --> 00:46:23,420
Wow.

1332
00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:26,240
So this guy knew this already and he

1333
00:46:26,240 --> 00:46:28,100
links it to two electric vehicles?

1334
00:46:28,340 --> 00:46:29,660
What does that have to do with the

1335
00:46:29,660 --> 00:46:30,480
price of matzah?

1336
00:46:31,840 --> 00:46:33,120
You and your matzah.

1337
00:46:33,220 --> 00:46:34,220
I say it on purpose.

1338
00:46:34,540 --> 00:46:35,460
Let me listen to this guy again.

1339
00:46:35,520 --> 00:46:36,440
Let's start that clip over.

1340
00:46:36,560 --> 00:46:38,800
I think the biggest question is, was this

1341
00:46:38,800 --> 00:46:39,900
a broader conspiracy?

1342
00:46:40,280 --> 00:46:41,880
And who are the fellow conspirators?

1343
00:46:42,340 --> 00:46:44,240
And what conceivably might be next?

1344
00:46:44,540 --> 00:46:47,400
I would say, secondly, it's whether that explosion,

1345
00:46:47,400 --> 00:46:49,680
a very mysterious explosion of a cyber truck

1346
00:46:49,680 --> 00:46:51,860
outside of a Trump-owned hotel in Las

1347
00:46:51,860 --> 00:46:54,000
Vegas, is in any way connected to this

1348
00:46:54,000 --> 00:46:54,680
event as well.

1349
00:46:54,740 --> 00:46:57,360
It seems odd that two electric vehicles are

1350
00:46:57,360 --> 00:46:59,340
involved in explosions on the same day.

1351
00:47:00,020 --> 00:47:00,460
Wow.

1352
00:47:00,740 --> 00:47:01,980
Wait a minute.

1353
00:47:02,640 --> 00:47:04,760
This was not involved in an explosion.

1354
00:47:05,860 --> 00:47:08,080
He says two electric vehicles were involved in

1355
00:47:08,080 --> 00:47:08,720
an explosion.

1356
00:47:09,240 --> 00:47:09,560
No.

1357
00:47:11,200 --> 00:47:12,240
One exploded.

1358
00:47:12,480 --> 00:47:14,680
One killed people on Bourbon Street.

1359
00:47:15,840 --> 00:47:17,040
By ramming, yeah.

1360
00:47:17,040 --> 00:47:18,300
Do you have a fourth clip for this

1361
00:47:18,300 --> 00:47:19,200
guy, or is it just three?

1362
00:47:19,640 --> 00:47:20,340
No, that's it.

1363
00:47:20,440 --> 00:47:23,620
It ends there because there's nothing else.

1364
00:47:23,740 --> 00:47:25,100
Well, let me play this.

1365
00:47:25,640 --> 00:47:26,940
He was read in.

1366
00:47:27,020 --> 00:47:28,300
This was scripted.

1367
00:47:28,520 --> 00:47:28,620
Clearly.

1368
00:47:28,620 --> 00:47:30,000
When you saw it, when you got to

1369
00:47:30,000 --> 00:47:32,200
watch it visually, you can see the scripting.

1370
00:47:33,600 --> 00:47:35,640
It's actually much better in audio than it

1371
00:47:35,640 --> 00:47:37,940
is in video because in video it just

1372
00:47:37,940 --> 00:47:41,320
looks like a rehearsal.

1373
00:47:41,440 --> 00:47:42,280
Hold on a second.

1374
00:47:42,760 --> 00:47:43,200
Stop.

1375
00:47:43,860 --> 00:47:45,220
So back to our thesis.

1376
00:47:45,380 --> 00:47:45,960
I like this.

1377
00:47:45,960 --> 00:47:48,360
Let me pull this clip up again.

1378
00:47:48,740 --> 00:47:49,760
This guy is good.

1379
00:47:50,540 --> 00:47:51,800
I want to hear this again.

1380
00:47:52,240 --> 00:47:57,160
So back to our thesis that the Bourbon

1381
00:47:57,160 --> 00:47:59,620
Street mowing machine went rogue.

1382
00:48:00,080 --> 00:48:02,440
He had IEDs in the truck.

1383
00:48:03,660 --> 00:48:07,500
Perhaps the plan was to have two IEDs

1384
00:48:07,500 --> 00:48:10,920
explode in electric vehicles because that's what this

1385
00:48:10,920 --> 00:48:11,820
guy is saying.

1386
00:48:11,820 --> 00:48:15,080
He says, gee, isn't it coincidence that you

1387
00:48:15,080 --> 00:48:18,120
have two electric vehicles exploding on the same

1388
00:48:18,120 --> 00:48:18,420
day?

1389
00:48:18,700 --> 00:48:21,040
That might have been the original plan before

1390
00:48:21,040 --> 00:48:27,400
the Bourbon Street mowing machine went rogue.

1391
00:48:27,480 --> 00:48:28,780
Listen to this last bit again from this

1392
00:48:28,780 --> 00:48:28,980
guy.

1393
00:48:29,080 --> 00:48:31,060
Outside of a Trump-owned hotel in Las

1394
00:48:31,060 --> 00:48:33,220
Vegas is in any way connected to this

1395
00:48:33,220 --> 00:48:33,880
event as well.

1396
00:48:33,960 --> 00:48:36,560
It seems odd that two electric vehicles are

1397
00:48:36,560 --> 00:48:38,520
involved in explosions on the same day.

1398
00:48:38,660 --> 00:48:40,700
Oh, he had the old script.

1399
00:48:40,700 --> 00:48:43,060
He didn't realize the script had changed.

1400
00:48:44,540 --> 00:48:45,720
Why would you say that?

1401
00:48:45,740 --> 00:48:47,620
There was no explosion on Bourbon Street.

1402
00:48:47,960 --> 00:48:50,260
Now, maybe it was planned.

1403
00:48:51,280 --> 00:48:53,220
I like the idea of being the old

1404
00:48:53,220 --> 00:48:55,700
script because he obviously knows too much.

1405
00:48:55,760 --> 00:48:57,620
For a guy who was just dragged out

1406
00:48:57,620 --> 00:49:01,260
of bed, remembering again this took place six

1407
00:49:01,260 --> 00:49:03,560
to 12 hours just before this guy shows

1408
00:49:03,560 --> 00:49:06,760
up in the studio as the superstar expert

1409
00:49:06,760 --> 00:49:09,920
with connections to the CIA and connections to

1410
00:49:09,920 --> 00:49:12,840
the Council on Foreign Relations and doing this

1411
00:49:12,840 --> 00:49:14,040
for 50 years.

1412
00:49:14,180 --> 00:49:15,180
This guy's 70s.

1413
00:49:15,420 --> 00:49:16,180
He's in his 70s.

1414
00:49:16,980 --> 00:49:20,140
So he's been a terrorism expert for 50

1415
00:49:20,140 --> 00:49:21,780
years, so he's the go-to guy.

1416
00:49:22,360 --> 00:49:23,720
And he'd be dragged out of bed.

1417
00:49:24,120 --> 00:49:25,080
I'm going to use that.

1418
00:49:25,160 --> 00:49:25,840
I just like it.

1419
00:49:25,960 --> 00:49:27,140
Because it's a holiday.

1420
00:49:27,660 --> 00:49:29,740
Being dragged out of bed and then put

1421
00:49:29,740 --> 00:49:31,100
in front of the camera, and he has

1422
00:49:31,100 --> 00:49:35,520
all this information and he's just reciting it.

1423
00:49:35,520 --> 00:49:36,900
And when you watch the two of these

1424
00:49:36,900 --> 00:49:41,740
interchange, Lopez and this guy, it just looks

1425
00:49:41,740 --> 00:49:42,820
rehearsed as hell.

1426
00:49:43,220 --> 00:49:45,920
And then we have this connection that everybody

1427
00:49:45,920 --> 00:49:47,600
made, including our president.

1428
00:49:47,740 --> 00:49:50,180
A blast that in seconds turned this Tesla

1429
00:49:50,180 --> 00:49:52,040
Cybertruck into a ball of flames.

1430
00:49:52,600 --> 00:49:54,780
Parked outside the Trump International Hotel in Las

1431
00:49:54,780 --> 00:49:56,880
Vegas, it is now a charred carcass of

1432
00:49:56,880 --> 00:49:57,340
a vehicle.

1433
00:49:57,700 --> 00:49:59,900
Investigators are looking into whether the explosion was

1434
00:49:59,900 --> 00:50:01,360
an act of organized terrorism.

1435
00:50:01,360 --> 00:50:04,140
Elon Musk, Tesla's CEO and a strong supporter

1436
00:50:04,140 --> 00:50:06,940
of President-elect Donald Trump, confirmed online that

1437
00:50:06,940 --> 00:50:09,100
explosives and fireworks were found in the bed

1438
00:50:09,100 --> 00:50:10,820
of the truck and that the vehicle's data

1439
00:50:10,820 --> 00:50:13,000
seemed normal prior to the blast.

1440
00:50:13,180 --> 00:50:15,060
The timing of the incident is also of

1441
00:50:15,060 --> 00:50:18,120
concern for investigators, as it occurred just hours

1442
00:50:18,120 --> 00:50:20,180
after a car rammed into revelers in New

1443
00:50:20,180 --> 00:50:20,600
Orleans.

1444
00:50:21,040 --> 00:50:24,540
President Biden said an investigation is ongoing, but

1445
00:50:24,540 --> 00:50:26,240
that no link had been found between the

1446
00:50:26,240 --> 00:50:27,020
two events.

1447
00:50:27,020 --> 00:50:30,820
The intelligence community are investigating this as well,

1448
00:50:30,920 --> 00:50:34,040
including whether there's any possible connection with the

1449
00:50:34,040 --> 00:50:34,920
attack in New Orleans.

1450
00:50:35,840 --> 00:50:37,900
Thus far, there's nothing to report on that

1451
00:50:37,900 --> 00:50:39,060
score at this time.

1452
00:50:39,560 --> 00:50:42,220
The investigation did find that both vehicles were

1453
00:50:42,220 --> 00:50:44,560
rented on the same car-sharing site, Turo.

1454
00:50:44,900 --> 00:50:46,700
In a statement, Turo said it was working

1455
00:50:46,700 --> 00:50:47,720
with law enforcement.

1456
00:50:48,160 --> 00:50:50,760
A troubling coincidence or linked events?

1457
00:50:51,320 --> 00:50:53,600
Las Vegas' sheriff also confirmed that they do

1458
00:50:53,600 --> 00:50:55,300
not believe the two attacks were the work

1459
00:50:55,300 --> 00:50:57,280
of a major terrorist organization.

1460
00:50:57,800 --> 00:50:59,400
So the question is, is there any links

1461
00:50:59,400 --> 00:50:59,860
to ISIS?

1462
00:51:00,060 --> 00:51:01,580
And I will tell you that we don't

1463
00:51:01,580 --> 00:51:03,920
have any indication of that here in Las

1464
00:51:03,920 --> 00:51:06,360
Vegas, no overt ISIS flag as was seen

1465
00:51:06,360 --> 00:51:08,040
in New Orleans.

1466
00:51:08,220 --> 00:51:11,380
But again, we are investigating every aspect of

1467
00:51:11,380 --> 00:51:13,380
this, and if that comes to light, we'll

1468
00:51:13,380 --> 00:51:14,260
certainly update you.

1469
00:51:14,860 --> 00:51:16,780
With the area under tight security, the FBI

1470
00:51:16,780 --> 00:51:19,120
said the driver of the rented Tesla died

1471
00:51:19,120 --> 00:51:19,880
in the blast.

1472
00:51:19,880 --> 00:51:23,060
And a reminder that we had a so

1473
00:51:23,060 --> 00:51:26,440
-called terrorist attack also set up by FBI

1474
00:51:26,440 --> 00:51:30,680
with Omar Mateen of the Pulse nightclub in

1475
00:51:30,680 --> 00:51:33,300
Florida in 2016 when Trump just came in.

1476
00:51:33,680 --> 00:51:36,280
This is what these crazy people do.

1477
00:51:36,980 --> 00:51:39,180
Oh yeah, let's make ourselves really relevant for

1478
00:51:39,180 --> 00:51:40,600
the president coming in.

1479
00:51:41,020 --> 00:51:43,240
We got terrorists, ISIS in America, everybody.

1480
00:51:45,580 --> 00:51:46,680
It's disgusting.

1481
00:51:47,040 --> 00:51:48,380
And they do the same script.

1482
00:51:48,380 --> 00:51:50,300
They forget that the No Agenda show has

1483
00:51:50,300 --> 00:51:50,740
the clips.

1484
00:51:51,380 --> 00:51:52,440
We have all the old clips.

1485
00:51:52,440 --> 00:51:53,140
We have the clips.

1486
00:51:53,380 --> 00:51:54,120
We have your clips.

1487
00:51:57,160 --> 00:51:58,200
That's troubling.

1488
00:52:00,140 --> 00:52:01,400
It's quite annoying.

1489
00:52:02,080 --> 00:52:02,360
Yeah.

1490
00:52:02,780 --> 00:52:04,540
And then you get these poor innocents that

1491
00:52:04,540 --> 00:52:05,280
just get killed.

1492
00:52:05,920 --> 00:52:11,240
I have the Trump casino incident NTD clip.

1493
00:52:11,400 --> 00:52:13,960
This is part of this, this is how

1494
00:52:13,960 --> 00:52:17,940
the NTD reports on the casino explosion at

1495
00:52:17,940 --> 00:52:20,420
the Trump Hotel in Vegas.

1496
00:52:20,700 --> 00:52:22,800
Over in Las Vegas, one person was killed

1497
00:52:22,800 --> 00:52:25,260
and seven more were injured when a Tesla

1498
00:52:25,260 --> 00:52:28,380
Cybertruck exploded in front of the Trump Hotel

1499
00:52:28,380 --> 00:52:29,060
earlier today.

1500
00:52:29,740 --> 00:52:31,520
Just a warning, some viewers may find the

1501
00:52:31,520 --> 00:52:34,820
following footage disturbing due to its graphic nature.

1502
00:52:35,280 --> 00:52:37,440
Authorities say the car caught fire in the

1503
00:52:37,440 --> 00:52:39,860
valet area of the hotel around 8.40

1504
00:52:39,860 --> 00:52:41,220
a.m. local time.

1505
00:52:41,220 --> 00:52:43,860
A person died inside the vehicle.

1506
00:52:44,200 --> 00:52:47,220
Seven bystanders received minor injuries and were taken

1507
00:52:47,220 --> 00:52:48,760
to a hospital for treatment.

1508
00:52:49,160 --> 00:52:52,140
Police are investigating the incident as a possible

1509
00:52:52,140 --> 00:52:53,400
act of terror.

1510
00:52:53,900 --> 00:52:56,820
No cause was given and details remain scarce.

1511
00:52:57,080 --> 00:52:59,620
This is a developing story and we'll keep

1512
00:52:59,620 --> 00:53:00,260
you updated.

1513
00:53:02,080 --> 00:53:02,440
Hmm.

1514
00:53:02,960 --> 00:53:04,920
You know, Musk came out with a tweet

1515
00:53:04,920 --> 00:53:10,560
about the initial, you know, Brunetti sent some

1516
00:53:10,560 --> 00:53:12,580
notes around, you got one, that he believes

1517
00:53:12,580 --> 00:53:14,680
it was fireworks that this guy was hauling

1518
00:53:14,680 --> 00:53:17,600
around to blow up locally, which you can

1519
00:53:17,600 --> 00:53:17,800
do.

1520
00:53:18,940 --> 00:53:22,280
But if there was a bomb or anything,

1521
00:53:22,600 --> 00:53:25,500
which Musk kind of thinks there was, and

1522
00:53:25,500 --> 00:53:29,180
he was bragging about the strong sides of

1523
00:53:29,180 --> 00:53:33,120
the Tesla truck, it's so rugged and well

1524
00:53:33,120 --> 00:53:35,300
-built that the explosion could only go up.

1525
00:53:35,300 --> 00:53:35,820
Yes.

1526
00:53:36,200 --> 00:53:37,300
And it couldn't go out to the sides

1527
00:53:37,300 --> 00:53:38,700
and do any damage, and then he pointed

1528
00:53:38,700 --> 00:53:40,860
out that even the windows of the doors

1529
00:53:40,860 --> 00:53:42,700
right there weren't even broken.

1530
00:53:43,740 --> 00:53:46,940
This whole thing is just, I think the

1531
00:53:46,940 --> 00:53:49,580
initial thesis that this is a botched operation.

1532
00:53:49,780 --> 00:53:51,420
And then we need to add this little

1533
00:53:51,420 --> 00:53:52,240
ditty to it.

1534
00:53:53,480 --> 00:53:54,980
To some breaking news now.

1535
00:53:55,120 --> 00:53:57,380
The FBI arresting a Virginia man earlier this

1536
00:53:57,380 --> 00:54:00,440
month after finding what prosecutors described as the

1537
00:54:00,440 --> 00:54:04,440
largest seizure of homemade explosives in bureau history.

1538
00:54:04,660 --> 00:54:07,920
In court documents, prosecutors say Brad Kenneth Spafford

1539
00:54:07,920 --> 00:54:10,720
is an extreme danger to the community, and

1540
00:54:10,720 --> 00:54:12,240
they're trying to keep him in jail.

1541
00:54:12,480 --> 00:54:13,980
They say he had a stockpile of more

1542
00:54:13,980 --> 00:54:18,180
than 150 pipe bombs, with some preloaded into

1543
00:54:18,180 --> 00:54:19,320
a wearable vest.

1544
00:54:19,780 --> 00:54:21,340
Let's get right to our Ken Delaney.

1545
00:54:21,520 --> 00:54:23,500
And Ken, what is Spafford charged with right

1546
00:54:23,500 --> 00:54:25,420
now, and what else did investigators say they

1547
00:54:25,420 --> 00:54:25,700
found?

1548
00:54:26,280 --> 00:54:28,600
As of now, Valerie, he's only charged with

1549
00:54:28,600 --> 00:54:32,080
illegally possessing a short-barreled unregistered rifle.

1550
00:54:32,500 --> 00:54:34,240
But it seems pretty clear they're planning more

1551
00:54:34,240 --> 00:54:34,560
charges.

1552
00:54:34,740 --> 00:54:36,780
They were arguing to this federal judge that

1553
00:54:36,780 --> 00:54:39,040
he should not be released on bond because

1554
00:54:39,040 --> 00:54:41,280
he's a danger to the community, not only

1555
00:54:41,280 --> 00:54:44,480
because they recovered that massive cache of explosives,

1556
00:54:44,860 --> 00:54:46,260
but because he appears to be an anti

1557
00:54:46,260 --> 00:54:47,180
-government extremist.

1558
00:54:47,520 --> 00:54:49,440
They said that he was using pictures of

1559
00:54:49,440 --> 00:54:51,980
President Biden for target practice, and he talked

1560
00:54:51,980 --> 00:54:55,420
to a neighbor about bringing back political assassinations.

1561
00:54:55,560 --> 00:54:57,460
So he appears to have some very extreme

1562
00:54:57,460 --> 00:54:59,920
beliefs, and the federal government wants him behind

1563
00:54:59,920 --> 00:55:00,240
bars.

1564
00:55:00,460 --> 00:55:01,880
That's where he is right now, while a

1565
00:55:01,880 --> 00:55:03,660
judge considers the evidence, Valerie.

1566
00:55:04,240 --> 00:55:05,920
Yeah, of course, we don't know much about

1567
00:55:05,920 --> 00:55:07,860
this case, but I do like the idea

1568
00:55:07,860 --> 00:55:09,980
of incarcerating him for the thought crime.

1569
00:55:10,820 --> 00:55:12,720
Because that's basically what it is.

1570
00:55:13,280 --> 00:55:15,380
You know, what's up with these IEDs?

1571
00:55:15,380 --> 00:55:17,340
Did he really have IEDs in a vest?

1572
00:55:17,480 --> 00:55:19,360
I mean, this is all sketchy details at

1573
00:55:19,360 --> 00:55:20,520
this point, but the only...

1574
00:55:20,520 --> 00:55:22,780
Yeah, it sounds like it's very poorly organized.

1575
00:55:22,940 --> 00:55:25,580
But, I mean, was he shooting at target

1576
00:55:25,580 --> 00:55:26,960
practicing of Biden?

1577
00:55:27,820 --> 00:55:29,080
Well, that's probably...

1578
00:55:29,080 --> 00:55:31,440
Well, that's all according to the neighbor.

1579
00:55:31,640 --> 00:55:32,580
According to the neighbor.

1580
00:55:32,740 --> 00:55:33,580
According to the neighbor.

1581
00:55:33,580 --> 00:55:33,920
Yeah, the neighbor.

1582
00:55:34,440 --> 00:55:34,880
Okay.

1583
00:55:35,300 --> 00:55:36,440
And then here's the lawyer.

1584
00:55:36,540 --> 00:55:38,420
And, Ken, what is his lawyer saying about

1585
00:55:38,420 --> 00:55:38,980
all of this?

1586
00:55:39,600 --> 00:55:41,780
Well, his lawyer is pushing back strongly against

1587
00:55:41,780 --> 00:55:43,260
the idea that he's a danger to the

1588
00:55:43,260 --> 00:55:43,540
community.

1589
00:55:43,660 --> 00:55:46,920
He hasn't spoken specifically to the seizures of

1590
00:55:46,920 --> 00:55:49,380
explosives, but he's saying that the idea that

1591
00:55:49,380 --> 00:55:51,400
this man is dangerous and an anti-government

1592
00:55:51,400 --> 00:55:54,180
extremist is overblown and concocted, and there's no

1593
00:55:54,180 --> 00:55:54,820
evidence of that.

1594
00:55:54,820 --> 00:55:55,500
No evidence.

1595
00:55:55,660 --> 00:55:57,080
Initially, a judge ruled that he could be

1596
00:55:57,080 --> 00:56:00,840
released with electronic monitoring, but the prosecutors urged

1597
00:56:00,840 --> 00:56:03,260
that judge to reconsider, and he remains behind

1598
00:56:03,260 --> 00:56:04,180
bars at this hour.

1599
00:56:04,300 --> 00:56:05,200
Yeah, at this hour.

1600
00:56:05,280 --> 00:56:07,140
Because it's good for the story.

1601
00:56:07,300 --> 00:56:08,800
It's good for everybody to get all spun

1602
00:56:08,800 --> 00:56:10,420
up and all excited about it.

1603
00:56:14,150 --> 00:56:15,170
Well, there you go.

1604
00:56:15,490 --> 00:56:16,030
Lone Wolf.

1605
00:56:16,210 --> 00:56:17,270
The Lone Wolf are back.

1606
00:56:17,370 --> 00:56:17,930
Or is it?

1607
00:56:18,190 --> 00:56:20,430
Is it just the Lone Wolf?

1608
00:56:20,790 --> 00:56:21,090
Or...

1609
00:56:21,090 --> 00:56:22,970
We have an actual...

1610
00:56:24,610 --> 00:56:25,810
The Lone Wolf.

1611
00:56:25,810 --> 00:56:26,870
We got this...

1612
00:56:26,870 --> 00:56:29,110
We used this Lone Wolf howl for the

1613
00:56:29,110 --> 00:56:31,790
first time in 2011.

1614
00:56:35,970 --> 00:56:38,550
2011, the first time we used that.

1615
00:56:39,410 --> 00:56:39,690
Yeah.

1616
00:56:40,030 --> 00:56:42,230
And then, you know, just so you know,

1617
00:56:42,450 --> 00:56:45,250
we've been down this path so many times.

1618
00:56:45,930 --> 00:56:46,430
Oh, we've...

1619
00:56:46,430 --> 00:56:46,990
We have...

1620
00:56:46,990 --> 00:56:48,050
This story is just repeating.

1621
00:56:48,470 --> 00:56:48,950
Repeating.

1622
00:56:49,270 --> 00:56:49,550
Ow!

1623
00:56:50,030 --> 00:56:50,590
ISIS.

1624
00:56:53,390 --> 00:56:57,030
We will follow them to the gates of

1625
00:56:57,030 --> 00:56:57,690
hell.

1626
00:56:58,330 --> 00:56:58,890
ISIS.

1627
00:57:02,750 --> 00:57:04,350
ISIS in America, everybody.

1628
00:57:04,570 --> 00:57:04,950
That's right.

1629
00:57:05,070 --> 00:57:05,830
That's the whole point.

1630
00:57:05,910 --> 00:57:06,830
Just keep thinking that.

1631
00:57:06,970 --> 00:57:07,730
ISIS in America.

1632
00:57:08,710 --> 00:57:13,190
So, changing topics, but not changing complete topics.

1633
00:57:13,570 --> 00:57:16,210
I do have this musk clip, because we

1634
00:57:16,210 --> 00:57:20,090
talked about musk, because it confirms your...

1635
00:57:20,090 --> 00:57:22,830
Well, I think we both agree on this,

1636
00:57:22,930 --> 00:57:23,150
but...

1637
00:57:23,790 --> 00:57:24,130
Oh, yeah.

1638
00:57:24,330 --> 00:57:27,270
I love my ex-timeline.

1639
00:57:27,390 --> 00:57:29,970
People are like, Yo, man, Curry was right.

1640
00:57:30,070 --> 00:57:30,650
He was right.

1641
00:57:30,930 --> 00:57:31,890
Curry was right.

1642
00:57:32,390 --> 00:57:34,230
Curry's been talking about this for years.

1643
00:57:34,550 --> 00:57:35,030
For years.

1644
00:57:35,610 --> 00:57:37,670
The thing is, Curry's been talking about it

1645
00:57:37,670 --> 00:57:39,850
for years, but musk has been talking about

1646
00:57:39,850 --> 00:57:40,430
it longer.

1647
00:57:40,730 --> 00:57:40,950
I know.

1648
00:57:41,510 --> 00:57:43,190
That's where Curry got it from.

1649
00:57:43,270 --> 00:57:43,930
Yeah, exactly.

1650
00:57:44,190 --> 00:57:46,130
The CEO of social media platform X, formerly

1651
00:57:46,130 --> 00:57:49,050
known as Twitter, teasing X-TV, X-money,

1652
00:57:49,130 --> 00:57:50,170
and more in 2025.

1653
00:57:51,310 --> 00:57:51,530
X-money!

1654
00:57:51,810 --> 00:57:54,810
Elon Musk wants to be in everything app.

1655
00:58:06,570 --> 00:58:08,790
The X-app is going to be the

1656
00:58:08,790 --> 00:58:09,790
way you manage your life.

1657
00:58:10,190 --> 00:58:12,930
I mean, that's what Elon's really got envisioned

1658
00:58:12,930 --> 00:58:13,450
for it.

1659
00:58:19,730 --> 00:58:21,170
No, we don't.

1660
00:58:21,330 --> 00:58:22,250
No, we don't forget that.

1661
00:58:22,810 --> 00:58:23,410
Click and go.

1662
00:58:23,650 --> 00:58:24,330
Click and go.

1663
00:58:24,530 --> 00:58:24,810
Click and buy.

1664
00:58:25,010 --> 00:58:25,530
Click and buy.

1665
00:58:25,570 --> 00:58:28,230
Every message, every tweet will have the ability

1666
00:58:28,230 --> 00:58:31,170
to be monetized, and obviously that's the big

1667
00:58:31,170 --> 00:58:31,930
secret sauce here.

1668
00:58:32,090 --> 00:58:32,510
Secret sauce!

1669
00:58:40,150 --> 00:58:40,670
Nice.

1670
00:58:47,890 --> 00:58:49,450
Mm-hmm.

1671
00:59:11,570 --> 00:59:13,730
They're going to assassinate Musk someday.

1672
00:59:15,030 --> 00:59:17,390
The banking industry is not going to take

1673
00:59:17,390 --> 00:59:17,970
this lightly.

1674
00:59:18,330 --> 00:59:18,670
No.

1675
00:59:19,150 --> 00:59:20,110
That's a good point.

1676
00:59:20,210 --> 00:59:21,730
The banking industry, yes.

1677
00:59:22,490 --> 00:59:24,290
Well, if anyone's seen the movie, a good

1678
00:59:24,290 --> 00:59:25,910
movie, I would recommend, go check it out.

1679
00:59:25,950 --> 00:59:26,670
It's very funny.

1680
00:59:26,790 --> 00:59:29,190
Well, not funny, but it's interesting.

1681
00:59:29,430 --> 00:59:30,550
It's called The International.

1682
00:59:30,810 --> 00:59:31,790
Ah, it's a great movie.

1683
00:59:31,830 --> 00:59:34,590
Isn't that with, what's that actor's name?

1684
00:59:36,010 --> 00:59:38,250
Well, people in the troll room will come

1685
00:59:38,250 --> 00:59:40,090
up with the actor's name, but it's a

1686
00:59:40,090 --> 00:59:42,730
tremendous film, and it's about...

1687
00:59:42,730 --> 00:59:43,490
Clive Owen.

1688
00:59:43,690 --> 00:59:44,230
Clive Owen.

1689
00:59:45,090 --> 00:59:45,830
Yeah, Clive Owen.

1690
00:59:46,070 --> 00:59:49,030
It's a very, it's just a terrific film.

1691
00:59:49,290 --> 00:59:51,150
About BCCI, right?

1692
00:59:52,550 --> 00:59:53,790
Pretty much, yeah.

1693
00:59:54,030 --> 00:59:54,170
BCCI?

1694
00:59:54,510 --> 00:59:54,850
Yeah.

1695
00:59:55,190 --> 00:59:59,310
Well, since we're talking about digital money, Fifi

1696
00:59:59,310 --> 01:00:00,330
Lagarde came out.

1697
01:00:00,450 --> 01:00:04,410
She is, of course, convicted of crimes in

1698
01:00:04,410 --> 01:00:05,530
France, but it doesn't matter.

1699
01:00:05,630 --> 01:00:08,210
That's why she went from the International Monetary

1700
01:00:08,210 --> 01:00:11,250
Fund to the president, the boss over there

1701
01:00:11,250 --> 01:00:13,870
at the European Central Bank, the Federal Reserve,

1702
01:00:14,010 --> 01:00:16,250
if you will, of the European Union, and

1703
01:00:16,250 --> 01:00:18,150
she wished everybody a happy 2025.

1704
01:00:18,930 --> 01:00:21,030
Things are great, of course.

1705
01:00:21,090 --> 01:00:21,650
Things are great.

1706
01:00:21,730 --> 01:00:23,210
It's going to be even better, and just

1707
01:00:23,210 --> 01:00:23,530
wait.

1708
01:00:23,690 --> 01:00:25,330
I want to wish all of you a

1709
01:00:25,330 --> 01:00:26,070
happy new year.

1710
01:00:26,570 --> 01:00:31,230
Happy, healthy, prosperous 2025.

1711
01:00:31,830 --> 01:00:34,350
So we have a big, heavy agenda at

1712
01:00:34,350 --> 01:00:34,890
the ECB.

1713
01:00:34,990 --> 01:00:35,430
Heavy agenda.

1714
01:00:35,430 --> 01:00:38,750
We have made significant progress in 2024 in

1715
01:00:38,750 --> 01:00:40,070
bringing down inflation.

1716
01:00:40,070 --> 01:00:40,730
Yeah, yeah.

1717
01:00:40,830 --> 01:00:42,770
Ask my daughter about that inflation that you

1718
01:00:42,770 --> 01:00:43,250
brought down.

1719
01:00:43,510 --> 01:00:46,350
And hopefully 2025 is the year when we

1720
01:00:46,350 --> 01:00:50,410
are on target, as expected and as planned

1721
01:00:50,410 --> 01:00:51,250
in our strategy.

1722
01:00:51,530 --> 01:00:53,930
Of course, we will continue our efforts to

1723
01:00:53,930 --> 01:00:58,150
ensure that that inflation stabilizes sustainably at that

1724
01:00:58,150 --> 01:00:59,850
2% medium-term target.

1725
01:01:00,370 --> 01:01:03,130
We will also be reviewing our monetary policy

1726
01:01:03,130 --> 01:01:03,650
strategy.

1727
01:01:03,910 --> 01:01:04,770
Why do we do that?

1728
01:01:04,870 --> 01:01:05,690
Yes, why do you do that?

1729
01:01:05,710 --> 01:01:06,690
I thought you already did that.

1730
01:01:06,730 --> 01:01:07,970
Just did that in 2021.

1731
01:01:07,970 --> 01:01:10,870
Well, we're doing it to ensure that it

1732
01:01:10,870 --> 01:01:13,610
still fits the changing world in which we

1733
01:01:13,610 --> 01:01:13,850
live.

1734
01:01:14,210 --> 01:01:14,810
Uh-huh.

1735
01:01:15,190 --> 01:01:16,690
This is changing fast.

1736
01:01:16,970 --> 01:01:17,290
Oh, yeah.

1737
01:01:17,410 --> 01:01:18,090
Now here it comes.

1738
01:01:18,150 --> 01:01:19,390
Here comes the money shot.

1739
01:01:19,470 --> 01:01:22,650
We are fit for 2025 and following.

1740
01:01:23,190 --> 01:01:26,350
Another significant development on the horizon is our

1741
01:01:26,350 --> 01:01:27,170
digital euro.

1742
01:01:27,410 --> 01:01:30,170
We are in the preparation phase, and we

1743
01:01:30,170 --> 01:01:33,490
are expecting European legislation.

1744
01:01:33,490 --> 01:01:36,510
Once that is done, we will decide whether

1745
01:01:36,510 --> 01:01:40,270
we move forward with developing a digital form

1746
01:01:40,270 --> 01:01:41,130
of cash.

1747
01:01:41,770 --> 01:01:42,910
Your digital euro.

1748
01:01:43,030 --> 01:01:43,810
Your digital.

1749
01:01:43,810 --> 01:01:44,930
She's already doing the slogan.

1750
01:01:45,290 --> 01:01:46,390
Your digital euro.

1751
01:01:46,530 --> 01:01:47,750
Don't worry, it's coming, Europe.

1752
01:01:47,850 --> 01:01:49,850
And you know, we are also working on

1753
01:01:49,850 --> 01:01:50,490
banknotes.

1754
01:01:50,910 --> 01:01:53,330
We are in the process of redesigning our

1755
01:01:53,330 --> 01:01:53,890
banknotes.

1756
01:01:54,090 --> 01:01:54,870
This is interesting.

1757
01:01:54,970 --> 01:01:58,090
The long-standing exercise that will not be

1758
01:01:58,090 --> 01:02:02,230
completed in 2025, but significant moves will take

1759
01:02:02,230 --> 01:02:03,770
place with the design phase.

1760
01:02:04,110 --> 01:02:07,350
It reflects a commitment to innovation while also

1761
01:02:07,350 --> 01:02:10,570
preserving the trust and security that our currency

1762
01:02:10,570 --> 01:02:14,790
represents, both in banknote form and in digital

1763
01:02:14,790 --> 01:02:15,230
form.

1764
01:02:15,570 --> 01:02:17,850
So, when you talk about the security in

1765
01:02:17,850 --> 01:02:21,310
banknote form, I'm thinking, yes, plastic, embedded with

1766
01:02:21,310 --> 01:02:25,730
some kind of tracking mechanism, guaranteeing that she's

1767
01:02:25,730 --> 01:02:26,290
crazy.

1768
01:02:26,670 --> 01:02:27,550
Those people are crazy.

1769
01:02:27,550 --> 01:02:28,710
She is crazy, but I don't think you

1770
01:02:28,710 --> 01:02:29,450
can make that work.

1771
01:02:29,670 --> 01:02:31,890
Well, I'm just hearing what she's saying.

1772
01:02:32,050 --> 01:02:33,090
All you have to do, okay.

1773
01:02:33,290 --> 01:02:35,510
So, you've got a bunch of plastic bills.

1774
01:02:36,790 --> 01:02:38,150
They're either good or they're bad.

1775
01:02:38,270 --> 01:02:40,790
You take the bill, and you put it

1776
01:02:40,790 --> 01:02:42,970
in the microwave and give it about 15

1777
01:02:42,970 --> 01:02:43,490
seconds.

1778
01:02:43,630 --> 01:02:45,590
That'll blow out anything in there that's a

1779
01:02:45,590 --> 01:02:45,850
circuit.

1780
01:02:46,310 --> 01:02:48,750
Yeah, but then it won't be valid currency

1781
01:02:48,750 --> 01:02:49,370
when you go to pay.

1782
01:02:49,370 --> 01:02:50,170
No, it will be.

1783
01:02:50,730 --> 01:02:53,030
There's no way they could invalidate the currency

1784
01:02:53,030 --> 01:02:54,670
for that happening, because that could happen by

1785
01:02:54,670 --> 01:02:54,770
accident.

1786
01:02:54,770 --> 01:02:55,750
What are you talking about?

1787
01:02:55,750 --> 01:02:57,990
This is exactly what's going to happen.

1788
01:02:58,050 --> 01:02:59,890
I'm holding a bill that says 20 euros.

1789
01:03:00,470 --> 01:03:01,470
You give me my money.

1790
01:03:01,730 --> 01:03:03,630
And the way the new cash registers work

1791
01:03:03,630 --> 01:03:06,250
is you hold up the bill against the

1792
01:03:06,250 --> 01:03:07,970
little sensor, and it says, okay, this is

1793
01:03:07,970 --> 01:03:08,410
that bill.

1794
01:03:08,490 --> 01:03:09,470
We know who has that bill.

1795
01:03:09,670 --> 01:03:11,090
And if that's the case, you don't need

1796
01:03:11,090 --> 01:03:11,750
bills at all.

1797
01:03:12,250 --> 01:03:13,530
You might as well have it embedded in

1798
01:03:13,530 --> 01:03:14,530
the palm of your hand.

1799
01:03:14,950 --> 01:03:15,310
Yes.

1800
01:03:15,730 --> 01:03:16,510
Well, hello.

1801
01:03:16,670 --> 01:03:17,830
Hello, Mark of the Beast.

1802
01:03:17,910 --> 01:03:20,070
Thank you for taking us there in the

1803
01:03:20,070 --> 01:03:20,870
palm of your hand.

1804
01:03:21,070 --> 01:03:21,430
Exactly.

1805
01:03:22,490 --> 01:03:24,290
And do you think that Fifi's going to

1806
01:03:24,290 --> 01:03:26,730
let Elon use X money in Europe?

1807
01:03:26,950 --> 01:03:28,410
I don't think so.

1808
01:03:29,430 --> 01:03:30,390
There's no way.

1809
01:03:31,910 --> 01:03:34,390
In communist China, yeah, of course, you can

1810
01:03:34,390 --> 01:03:37,350
use the everything app.

1811
01:03:38,430 --> 01:03:40,050
In Europe, communist Europe?

1812
01:03:40,210 --> 01:03:40,630
Mm-mm.

1813
01:03:40,970 --> 01:03:41,310
Mm-mm.

1814
01:03:41,430 --> 01:03:43,130
You got to use the digital euro, my

1815
01:03:43,130 --> 01:03:43,390
brother.

1816
01:03:43,690 --> 01:03:44,590
That's not going to happen.

1817
01:03:45,170 --> 01:03:46,190
It's not going to happen.

1818
01:03:48,400 --> 01:03:50,080
Well, it's not going to happen for whatever

1819
01:03:50,080 --> 01:03:50,540
reason.

1820
01:03:50,540 --> 01:03:52,680
Well, that digital euro is coming.

1821
01:03:52,900 --> 01:03:53,760
I believe that.

1822
01:03:53,920 --> 01:03:55,180
I fully believe that's happening.

1823
01:03:55,180 --> 01:03:55,840
They're going to try.

1824
01:03:56,040 --> 01:03:57,220
Everyone wants to do these things.

1825
01:03:57,220 --> 01:03:58,360
I fully believe that's happening.

1826
01:03:58,480 --> 01:03:59,320
Fully believe it.

1827
01:03:59,600 --> 01:04:03,080
Of course, we have our own fun here

1828
01:04:03,080 --> 01:04:03,980
in the United States.

1829
01:04:04,460 --> 01:04:06,220
We've been tracking this for over a decade

1830
01:04:06,220 --> 01:04:06,820
on the show.

1831
01:04:06,920 --> 01:04:08,600
Let's start with some of these new travel

1832
01:04:08,600 --> 01:04:10,560
requirements that are supposed to be coming in

1833
01:04:10,560 --> 01:04:10,940
2025.

1834
01:04:11,340 --> 01:04:12,760
And one of them we've been talking about,

1835
01:04:12,800 --> 01:04:14,160
it feels like, for about 20 years.

1836
01:04:14,380 --> 01:04:15,900
We have, literally, right?

1837
01:04:15,980 --> 01:04:18,540
But TSA says 2025 is the year we're

1838
01:04:18,540 --> 01:04:19,520
going to get real, y'all.

1839
01:04:19,520 --> 01:04:21,160
As in the real ID.

1840
01:04:21,480 --> 01:04:22,640
We're going to get real, y'all.

1841
01:04:23,160 --> 01:04:23,480
May.

1842
01:04:23,600 --> 01:04:23,940
Come on.

1843
01:04:24,460 --> 01:04:25,560
I'll bring it when I see it.

1844
01:04:25,700 --> 01:04:27,280
You got to be, if you're 18 and

1845
01:04:27,280 --> 01:04:29,580
up, May 7th, bring a real ID to

1846
01:04:29,580 --> 01:04:31,460
travel domestically in the U.S. This is

1847
01:04:31,460 --> 01:04:33,040
part of an effort to make sure everything

1848
01:04:33,040 --> 01:04:34,300
is secure federally.

1849
01:04:34,640 --> 01:04:36,140
If you do not have a real ID,

1850
01:04:36,200 --> 01:04:37,100
you can use your passport.

1851
01:04:37,220 --> 01:04:37,940
But here's what it looks like.

1852
01:04:38,000 --> 01:04:38,780
You may already have one.

1853
01:04:38,840 --> 01:04:40,600
Maybe the last time you renewed your driver's

1854
01:04:40,600 --> 01:04:40,820
license.

1855
01:04:40,940 --> 01:04:42,500
It has a little star at the top.

1856
01:04:42,740 --> 01:04:43,840
There you go, in the upper right-hand

1857
01:04:43,840 --> 01:04:44,060
corner.

1858
01:04:44,160 --> 01:04:45,460
That's how you know if you have a

1859
01:04:45,460 --> 01:04:45,860
real ID.

1860
01:04:46,180 --> 01:04:47,940
Check your state DMV for how to do

1861
01:04:47,940 --> 01:04:48,040
it.

1862
01:04:48,040 --> 01:04:49,780
Now, if you are going to the United

1863
01:04:49,780 --> 01:04:51,540
Kingdom, this is real.

1864
01:04:51,760 --> 01:04:53,740
And it's happening next week, January 8th.

1865
01:04:54,020 --> 01:04:56,200
You have to have an electronic travel authorization,

1866
01:04:56,420 --> 01:04:58,740
an ETA, for travel in the United Kingdom.

1867
01:04:59,080 --> 01:04:59,480
I know.

1868
01:04:59,840 --> 01:05:00,340
I know.

1869
01:05:00,560 --> 01:05:00,760
What does that mean?

1870
01:05:00,860 --> 01:05:01,380
I'm out.

1871
01:05:01,860 --> 01:05:02,820
What do you know?

1872
01:05:02,980 --> 01:05:04,300
And it means that it's good for two

1873
01:05:04,300 --> 01:05:05,380
years and you can go where you need

1874
01:05:05,380 --> 01:05:06,540
to go in the U.K. But you

1875
01:05:06,540 --> 01:05:08,060
need to get on and figure that out

1876
01:05:08,060 --> 01:05:09,300
because they're not going to let you go

1877
01:05:09,300 --> 01:05:09,960
to the U.K. without.

1878
01:05:09,960 --> 01:05:11,760
The other thing that you're going to need

1879
01:05:11,760 --> 01:05:13,960
if you're traveling to Europe, 30 countries, including

1880
01:05:13,960 --> 01:05:18,300
places like France, Germany, Spain, is this ETIAS.

1881
01:05:18,560 --> 01:05:21,780
The ETIAS, the European Travel Information Authorization System.

1882
01:05:22,200 --> 01:05:23,000
Money gouge.

1883
01:05:23,240 --> 01:05:25,380
That, technically, is TBD, but it's 420.25.

1884
01:05:25,500 --> 01:05:27,540
You have to pay 7 euros, and then

1885
01:05:27,540 --> 01:05:28,660
that puts you into the system.

1886
01:05:28,800 --> 01:05:30,480
You register online, and that will allow you

1887
01:05:30,480 --> 01:05:33,300
to travel to 30 European countries and territories.

1888
01:05:33,580 --> 01:05:36,580
So, in reverse order, it's the European version

1889
01:05:36,580 --> 01:05:37,360
of our ESTA.

1890
01:05:38,840 --> 01:05:39,260
Of our what?

1891
01:05:39,920 --> 01:05:40,240
ESTA.

1892
01:05:40,380 --> 01:05:41,340
I think it's called ESTA.

1893
01:05:41,520 --> 01:05:42,460
E-E-S-T-A.

1894
01:05:42,600 --> 01:05:44,160
If you're coming from Europe, you have to

1895
01:05:44,160 --> 01:05:47,700
pay, I think it's $7, maybe, funny enough,

1896
01:05:48,320 --> 01:05:49,400
and have an ESTA.

1897
01:05:49,700 --> 01:05:50,860
It's like a visa.

1898
01:05:51,040 --> 01:05:51,700
You do it online.

1899
01:05:51,860 --> 01:05:52,940
And now they're saying, oh, you've got to

1900
01:05:52,940 --> 01:05:54,100
do it for us, too.

1901
01:05:54,580 --> 01:05:54,900
Americans.

1902
01:05:55,440 --> 01:05:55,980
You want to come over here?

1903
01:05:55,980 --> 01:05:56,940
It's like when you go to Japan, you

1904
01:05:56,940 --> 01:05:58,140
have to pay to get out of the

1905
01:05:58,140 --> 01:05:58,540
country.

1906
01:05:58,720 --> 01:05:59,320
Yes, that's right.

1907
01:06:02,720 --> 01:06:03,360
Yeah, with cash.

1908
01:06:03,700 --> 01:06:04,500
You have to pay with cash.

1909
01:06:04,580 --> 01:06:04,900
I know.

1910
01:06:05,240 --> 01:06:06,120
It's like, do you have any bills?

1911
01:06:06,940 --> 01:06:07,720
Can't let you out.

1912
01:06:08,380 --> 01:06:09,760
Yeah, you've got to do that when you

1913
01:06:09,760 --> 01:06:10,160
leave.

1914
01:06:10,840 --> 01:06:12,060
And, of course, the real ID.

1915
01:06:12,520 --> 01:06:13,120
You're right.

1916
01:06:13,200 --> 01:06:14,420
This is just a gouge.

1917
01:06:14,600 --> 01:06:14,740
Yeah.

1918
01:06:14,920 --> 01:06:17,020
It's just like nickel and diming the traveling

1919
01:06:17,020 --> 01:06:17,600
public.

1920
01:06:17,920 --> 01:06:18,800
The real ID.

1921
01:06:19,000 --> 01:06:20,180
This is the same, by the way, the

1922
01:06:20,180 --> 01:06:23,000
same gouging which has been taking, took over

1923
01:06:23,000 --> 01:06:25,280
the hotel business with all these phony baloney

1924
01:06:25,280 --> 01:06:25,720
fees.

1925
01:06:25,940 --> 01:06:28,440
It's taken over the rental car business with

1926
01:06:28,440 --> 01:06:29,820
all these phony baloney fees.

1927
01:06:29,920 --> 01:06:31,040
There's fees for parking.

1928
01:06:31,560 --> 01:06:33,180
The re-parking the car back in the

1929
01:06:33,180 --> 01:06:34,100
lot, there's a fee.

1930
01:06:34,100 --> 01:06:38,140
There's a fee for the rental asphalt.

1931
01:06:38,500 --> 01:06:38,880
There's a fee.

1932
01:06:39,300 --> 01:06:41,040
I mean, it says it's $19 a day,

1933
01:06:41,100 --> 01:06:42,860
but it ends up being $50 a day

1934
01:06:42,860 --> 01:06:44,000
because of all these fees.

1935
01:06:44,180 --> 01:06:47,860
This is unbelievable that this is continuing at

1936
01:06:47,860 --> 01:06:48,440
this clip.

1937
01:06:49,400 --> 01:06:52,580
Then the real ID, of course, that is

1938
01:06:52,580 --> 01:06:53,800
just to solidify.

1939
01:06:53,840 --> 01:06:55,560
Let me stop you there again.

1940
01:06:56,340 --> 01:07:00,340
When we started following the real ID story,

1941
01:07:00,940 --> 01:07:04,260
which was over 10 years ago, there was

1942
01:07:04,260 --> 01:07:08,020
an outcry amongst the conservatives in particular and

1943
01:07:08,020 --> 01:07:09,260
the Republicans and everybody.

1944
01:07:09,460 --> 01:07:11,520
Oh, my God, they're trying to track us

1945
01:07:11,520 --> 01:07:11,880
all.

1946
01:07:12,240 --> 01:07:13,760
They just wanted, there's just a way of

1947
01:07:13,760 --> 01:07:16,320
maintaining, you know, control of the public and

1948
01:07:16,320 --> 01:07:17,820
they went and it was a big fuss

1949
01:07:17,820 --> 01:07:19,740
about it and no one was buying it.

1950
01:07:19,840 --> 01:07:21,280
Now, all of a sudden, it's fine.

1951
01:07:21,460 --> 01:07:22,260
What changed?

1952
01:07:22,620 --> 01:07:22,900
Oh, yeah.

1953
01:07:22,900 --> 01:07:25,240
Well, what changed is that when you go

1954
01:07:25,240 --> 01:07:27,580
through TSA, they take your driver's license and

1955
01:07:27,580 --> 01:07:28,680
now it will be certified.

1956
01:07:29,040 --> 01:07:30,960
It is in Texas with a real ID

1957
01:07:30,960 --> 01:07:33,000
and that means the picture we have on

1958
01:07:33,000 --> 01:07:40,940
you, which will expedite your journey with facial

1959
01:07:40,940 --> 01:07:42,880
recognition, will be all certified.

1960
01:07:43,760 --> 01:07:44,780
This is already here.

1961
01:07:45,140 --> 01:07:47,740
The test they did is already grandfathered in.

1962
01:07:47,800 --> 01:07:48,460
It's not a test.

1963
01:07:48,540 --> 01:07:50,300
They just went through it, going to Europe

1964
01:07:50,300 --> 01:07:50,720
and back.

1965
01:07:50,720 --> 01:07:52,520
It's all facial recognition.

1966
01:07:52,800 --> 01:07:53,480
All of it.

1967
01:07:53,880 --> 01:07:54,460
It's here.

1968
01:07:55,140 --> 01:07:57,520
And it's all going up to Starlink.

1969
01:08:00,490 --> 01:08:02,170
Elon has control of all of it.

1970
01:08:03,130 --> 01:08:04,150
It's Elon.

1971
01:08:05,270 --> 01:08:07,010
It's not going up to Starlink.

1972
01:08:07,510 --> 01:08:09,130
It's all going up to Starlink.

1973
01:08:09,250 --> 01:08:10,770
That'll be the only internet you can get.

1974
01:08:10,950 --> 01:08:13,790
There's the Texas, the Fredericksburg coming out in

1975
01:08:13,790 --> 01:08:15,270
you every so, pretty soon you're going to

1976
01:08:15,270 --> 01:08:15,710
be gone.

1977
01:08:15,810 --> 01:08:16,170
You know that.

1978
01:08:16,390 --> 01:08:17,310
I'll be toast.

1979
01:08:17,910 --> 01:08:19,149
You'll be toast.

1980
01:08:19,149 --> 01:08:22,470
Not quite as toasty as the Cuomo kid

1981
01:08:22,470 --> 01:08:27,130
who did a New Year's prediction for 2025

1982
01:08:27,130 --> 01:08:29,390
that I think we need to listen to

1983
01:08:29,390 --> 01:08:31,250
because, you know, it's Chris Cuomo.

1984
01:08:31,729 --> 01:08:32,470
Let's be honest.

1985
01:08:32,609 --> 01:08:34,210
The guy knows what he's talking about.

1986
01:08:34,630 --> 01:08:37,550
Oh, I hope 2025 is everything you wanted

1987
01:08:37,550 --> 01:08:38,490
it to be.

1988
01:08:38,750 --> 01:08:39,350
How do we know?

1989
01:08:39,410 --> 01:08:40,050
We just started.

1990
01:08:40,310 --> 01:08:41,130
I'm Chris Cuomo.

1991
01:08:41,270 --> 01:08:42,490
Welcome to the Chris Cuomo Project.

1992
01:08:42,609 --> 01:08:44,510
I'm going to do something that I don't

1993
01:08:44,510 --> 01:08:45,550
really ever do.

1994
01:08:45,550 --> 01:08:47,010
Make predictions.

1995
01:08:47,609 --> 01:08:49,450
And I'm bringing in for the help with

1996
01:08:49,450 --> 01:08:51,450
this segment, the one and only, the inimitable,

1997
01:08:51,649 --> 01:08:55,430
the new daddy, Mr. Greg Ott, not real

1998
01:08:55,430 --> 01:08:57,050
name, my producer.

1999
01:08:57,430 --> 01:08:58,390
Okay, I've got a prediction.

2000
01:08:58,609 --> 01:08:59,069
Number one.

2001
01:08:59,569 --> 01:09:02,270
The pod scape is going to change.

2002
01:09:02,470 --> 01:09:04,569
The pod scape is going to change, John.

2003
01:09:04,609 --> 01:09:05,609
I think we should pay attention.

2004
01:09:05,930 --> 01:09:06,930
The pod scape.

2005
01:09:07,950 --> 01:09:10,130
I didn't know there was a pod scape,

2006
01:09:10,310 --> 01:09:11,290
but okay.

2007
01:09:11,410 --> 01:09:13,630
It's news to me as well, but it's

2008
01:09:13,630 --> 01:09:14,970
now the pod scape.

2009
01:09:14,970 --> 01:09:17,410
And the people who were at the top

2010
01:09:17,410 --> 01:09:20,850
last year will not be at the top

2011
01:09:20,850 --> 01:09:22,410
all of this year.

2012
01:09:22,590 --> 01:09:23,069
Uh oh.

2013
01:09:23,290 --> 01:09:23,830
Uh oh.

2014
01:09:24,109 --> 01:09:25,590
The pod scape is changing.

2015
01:09:25,790 --> 01:09:27,270
This is pertinent to the podcast.

2016
01:09:27,470 --> 01:09:29,109
This is a podcast you're presumably watching.

2017
01:09:29,229 --> 01:09:30,149
Here's what has happened.

2018
01:09:30,510 --> 01:09:30,770
Okay.

2019
01:09:31,210 --> 01:09:31,470
Now.

2020
01:09:31,950 --> 01:09:32,189
Okay.

2021
01:09:33,109 --> 01:09:35,970
He says, okay, more than anybody else in

2022
01:09:35,970 --> 01:09:36,350
broadcast.

2023
01:09:36,569 --> 01:09:37,010
He does.

2024
01:09:37,210 --> 01:09:37,950
He does.

2025
01:09:38,109 --> 01:09:39,170
He also has a why.

2026
01:09:39,470 --> 01:09:40,550
He does that a lot too.

2027
01:09:41,189 --> 01:09:41,670
Why?

2028
01:09:42,229 --> 01:09:42,490
Why?

2029
01:09:42,910 --> 01:09:43,950
Because I got no one to ask me

2030
01:09:43,950 --> 01:09:44,090
why.

2031
01:09:44,090 --> 01:09:45,170
I'm just going to say why.

2032
01:09:45,470 --> 01:09:45,570
Okay.

2033
01:09:45,870 --> 01:09:46,109
Now.

2034
01:09:46,830 --> 01:09:49,670
Money rushed into the pod space and tons

2035
01:09:49,670 --> 01:09:49,930
of.

2036
01:09:50,050 --> 01:09:51,069
Now it's pod space.

2037
01:09:51,130 --> 01:09:52,149
What happened to pod scape?

2038
01:09:52,189 --> 01:09:52,990
I like pod scape.

2039
01:09:52,990 --> 01:09:53,930
What happened to pod scape?

2040
01:09:54,010 --> 01:09:55,410
I like pod scape.

2041
01:09:55,790 --> 01:09:56,910
Don't do pod space.

2042
01:09:56,970 --> 01:09:57,190
Okay.

2043
01:09:57,550 --> 01:09:57,850
Now.

2044
01:09:58,790 --> 01:10:01,350
Money rushed into the pod space and tons

2045
01:10:01,350 --> 01:10:05,390
of big and bad deals were made in

2046
01:10:05,390 --> 01:10:06,810
the last five years.

2047
01:10:07,250 --> 01:10:09,030
That money has dried up.

2048
01:10:09,650 --> 01:10:12,590
There's an, there's an aphorism in investing.

2049
01:10:12,590 --> 01:10:14,210
You never want to be first dollar in

2050
01:10:14,210 --> 01:10:16,550
first dollar and got killed.

2051
01:10:16,610 --> 01:10:17,990
People were given a lot of money for

2052
01:10:17,990 --> 01:10:20,730
their podcasts and people have gone broke.

2053
01:10:20,850 --> 01:10:22,370
They've been bad deals.

2054
01:10:22,590 --> 01:10:25,030
I'm kind of like what who went broke.

2055
01:10:25,690 --> 01:10:27,370
Who went broke over this?

2056
01:10:27,570 --> 01:10:29,250
Did Spotify go broke?

2057
01:10:29,350 --> 01:10:31,850
No, they spent a billion dollars poorly, but

2058
01:10:31,850 --> 01:10:32,990
they didn't go broke.

2059
01:10:33,510 --> 01:10:35,670
Did Amazon, you went broke.

2060
01:10:35,730 --> 01:10:38,890
Did Amazon go broke over, uh, over hiring

2061
01:10:38,890 --> 01:10:41,250
those, those numb nuts with the, what is

2062
01:10:41,250 --> 01:10:43,870
their, the, the podcast that has the presidents

2063
01:10:43,870 --> 01:10:44,670
on all the time?

2064
01:10:44,910 --> 01:10:45,250
No.

2065
01:10:45,870 --> 01:10:48,650
I don't listen to these podcasts.

2066
01:10:48,930 --> 01:10:49,510
All right.

2067
01:10:49,630 --> 01:10:52,670
Nobody got, went broke hiring Alex Cooper's the

2068
01:10:52,670 --> 01:10:53,730
other big moneymaker.

2069
01:10:53,990 --> 01:10:54,270
No.

2070
01:10:54,630 --> 01:10:56,310
And Gimlet got bought out, but that was

2071
01:10:56,310 --> 01:10:56,970
by Spotify.

2072
01:10:56,970 --> 01:10:57,710
Who went broke?

2073
01:10:57,790 --> 01:10:58,170
Nobody.

2074
01:10:58,350 --> 01:11:00,290
I mean, Gimlet got closed down after they

2075
01:11:00,290 --> 01:11:01,090
got bought out.

2076
01:11:01,170 --> 01:11:02,250
So how'd you go broke?

2077
01:11:02,670 --> 01:11:04,770
You get here, here's a hundred million dollars.

2078
01:11:04,850 --> 01:11:06,210
Oh, and all of you have to shut

2079
01:11:06,210 --> 01:11:06,750
you down.

2080
01:11:07,130 --> 01:11:07,550
Okay.

2081
01:11:07,550 --> 01:11:08,070
Well, okay.

2082
01:11:08,210 --> 01:11:09,610
Does that you going broke?

2083
01:11:09,670 --> 01:11:10,850
You got a hundred million dollars.

2084
01:11:10,850 --> 01:11:11,610
Give me a break.

2085
01:11:13,010 --> 01:11:14,610
First dollar in got killed.

2086
01:11:14,730 --> 01:11:16,070
People were given a lot of money for

2087
01:11:16,070 --> 01:11:18,810
their podcasts and people have gone broke.

2088
01:11:19,030 --> 01:11:20,390
They've been bad deals.

2089
01:11:20,490 --> 01:11:20,990
Let me just check.

2090
01:11:21,070 --> 01:11:21,970
Joe, are you broke?

2091
01:11:22,170 --> 01:11:22,690
Are you broke?

2092
01:11:22,750 --> 01:11:23,990
Joe, Joe, are you broke?

2093
01:11:24,070 --> 01:11:25,090
Joe says he's not broke.

2094
01:11:25,390 --> 01:11:27,350
Um, kind of like what happened when serious

2095
01:11:27,350 --> 01:11:30,550
thought that having, um, Howard Stern would make

2096
01:11:30,550 --> 01:11:32,030
them like a household thing.

2097
01:11:32,310 --> 01:11:33,170
Hasn't happened.

2098
01:11:33,250 --> 01:11:34,830
Just made him really rich.

2099
01:11:35,070 --> 01:11:37,430
Uh, but it's not like serious is everywhere

2100
01:11:37,430 --> 01:11:37,910
now, right?

2101
01:11:37,910 --> 01:11:39,450
They're just mainly in like rental cars.

2102
01:11:39,450 --> 01:11:42,690
Second dollar in with the pod scape with

2103
01:11:42,690 --> 01:11:45,970
this election, people now know that you can

2104
01:11:45,970 --> 01:11:47,750
get banged for your buck and you can

2105
01:11:47,750 --> 01:11:48,990
get reach and resonance.

2106
01:11:49,550 --> 01:11:52,090
And I'm telling you on the right and

2107
01:11:52,090 --> 01:11:54,310
on the anti-institutional side, you're going to

2108
01:11:54,310 --> 01:11:56,830
do a lot better than Joe Rogan and

2109
01:11:56,830 --> 01:12:00,510
his merry band of, you know, cut rate

2110
01:12:00,510 --> 01:12:01,090
comedians.

2111
01:12:01,230 --> 01:12:01,490
Okay.

2112
01:12:01,650 --> 01:12:04,410
So now Chris Cuomo is saying that Joe

2113
01:12:04,410 --> 01:12:06,830
Rogan, um, I'm, I'm, I'm going to defend

2114
01:12:06,830 --> 01:12:09,150
Joe a little bit here who in the

2115
01:12:09,150 --> 01:12:11,950
week before the election had president Trump on,

2116
01:12:12,070 --> 01:12:15,670
had vice president elect, uh, JD Vance had

2117
01:12:15,670 --> 01:12:18,350
Vivek on, had, uh, what's his face.

2118
01:12:18,410 --> 01:12:20,490
Elon Musk that, that he has just a

2119
01:12:20,490 --> 01:12:21,870
merry band of comedians.

2120
01:12:22,470 --> 01:12:23,470
That's what you're saying.

2121
01:12:23,530 --> 01:12:24,030
Chris Cuomo.

2122
01:12:24,390 --> 01:12:24,910
Okay.

2123
01:12:25,070 --> 01:12:27,890
Who is going to usurp this top spot?

2124
01:12:28,250 --> 01:12:30,190
And I'm not saying that those guys will

2125
01:12:30,190 --> 01:12:30,570
disappear.

2126
01:12:30,770 --> 01:12:31,390
Can you stop for a second?

2127
01:12:31,530 --> 01:12:31,690
Yeah.

2128
01:12:32,210 --> 01:12:34,470
There's a, uh, I was noticing this.

2129
01:12:34,470 --> 01:12:37,650
There is a, uh, the left has been

2130
01:12:37,650 --> 01:12:38,930
talking about this.

2131
01:12:39,170 --> 01:12:42,450
What Cuomo is actually, Cuomo is despite his

2132
01:12:42,450 --> 01:12:45,610
trying to be neutral is still influenced greatly

2133
01:12:46,070 --> 01:12:46,810
by the left.

2134
01:12:47,030 --> 01:12:49,270
He is invited to the dinner parties.

2135
01:12:49,630 --> 01:12:50,730
He goes to eat.

2136
01:12:50,950 --> 01:12:51,050
Yes.

2137
01:12:51,670 --> 01:12:53,290
The talk of the talk of the town

2138
01:12:53,290 --> 01:12:55,690
is what we've got to do to fix

2139
01:12:55,690 --> 01:12:56,790
the, our messaging.

2140
01:12:56,790 --> 01:12:58,690
Cause they, they don't see that their messages

2141
01:12:58,690 --> 01:12:59,970
are just bad.

2142
01:13:00,210 --> 01:13:02,590
You know, the trans, the trans agenda and

2143
01:13:02,590 --> 01:13:03,390
all the other crap.

2144
01:13:03,390 --> 01:13:06,550
Trans Maoist, trans Maoist, the trans Maoist, the,

2145
01:13:06,550 --> 01:13:08,530
uh, the defund the police.

2146
01:13:08,650 --> 01:13:10,190
They, they still don't get any of it.

2147
01:13:10,250 --> 01:13:11,650
They still think this is all good.

2148
01:13:11,650 --> 01:13:12,450
If they could sell it.

2149
01:13:12,550 --> 01:13:14,750
The problem is that they can't message it.

2150
01:13:14,770 --> 01:13:14,970
Right.

2151
01:13:15,210 --> 01:13:16,590
And so one of the things you hear

2152
01:13:16,590 --> 01:13:18,350
over and over and over again is all

2153
01:13:18,350 --> 01:13:19,050
we need to do.

2154
01:13:19,050 --> 01:13:19,810
And we can do this.

2155
01:13:19,870 --> 01:13:22,290
We can do it is we need a

2156
01:13:22,290 --> 01:13:24,850
left wing Joe Rogan.

2157
01:13:25,010 --> 01:13:25,290
Yes.

2158
01:13:25,330 --> 01:13:28,570
And, and thank you very much because you

2159
01:13:28,570 --> 01:13:30,910
are ahead of my clips here, but that's

2160
01:13:30,910 --> 01:13:31,230
good.

2161
01:13:31,230 --> 01:13:33,870
Cause that is exactly what Chris Cuomo is

2162
01:13:33,870 --> 01:13:34,650
talking about.

2163
01:13:35,510 --> 01:13:37,230
And I'm sure he will be a part

2164
01:13:37,230 --> 01:13:37,550
of it.

2165
01:13:37,670 --> 01:13:39,450
And I can also tell you who is

2166
01:13:39,450 --> 01:13:40,630
going to be doing it.

2167
01:13:41,270 --> 01:13:41,850
And Chris Cuomo.

2168
01:13:42,050 --> 01:13:43,450
Before you continue, I have one more little

2169
01:13:43,450 --> 01:13:44,410
addition to this.

2170
01:13:44,810 --> 01:13:46,550
This is the same way they were thinking

2171
01:13:46,550 --> 01:13:48,750
when Rush Limbaugh hit the scene is starting

2172
01:13:48,750 --> 01:13:49,310
in 87.

2173
01:13:49,930 --> 01:13:51,870
They said, all we needed to do was

2174
01:13:51,870 --> 01:13:54,410
do a left-wing version of Rush Limbaugh.

2175
01:13:54,510 --> 01:13:56,510
And they came up with air America.

2176
01:13:56,890 --> 01:13:58,370
And Rachel Maddow.

2177
01:13:58,370 --> 01:14:01,950
And Rachel Maddow who did, she did survive.

2178
01:14:03,470 --> 01:14:05,810
Oh, well, let's see who is going to

2179
01:14:05,810 --> 01:14:06,710
be part of this.

2180
01:14:07,390 --> 01:14:10,710
New, new, new leaders of the pod scape.

2181
01:14:11,050 --> 01:14:12,990
And I'm not saying that those guys will

2182
01:14:12,990 --> 01:14:16,050
disappear, but you're going to see better, bigger

2183
01:14:16,050 --> 01:14:17,070
talent come in.

2184
01:14:17,090 --> 01:14:17,530
Like what?

2185
01:14:17,770 --> 01:14:18,410
Like what?

2186
01:14:18,450 --> 01:14:20,390
He even, he even asked like what?

2187
01:14:20,910 --> 01:14:21,410
He doesn't even.

2188
01:14:21,670 --> 01:14:23,370
He's interviewing himself.

2189
01:14:24,630 --> 01:14:25,710
This is so good.

2190
01:14:25,830 --> 01:14:27,050
I'm just going to do that.

2191
01:14:27,710 --> 01:14:28,770
Tina, I love you.

2192
01:14:28,810 --> 01:14:29,070
Why?

2193
01:14:29,290 --> 01:14:30,170
Well, let me tell you why.

2194
01:14:30,450 --> 01:14:31,930
This is amazing.

2195
01:14:32,210 --> 01:14:33,390
Bigger talent come in.

2196
01:14:33,470 --> 01:14:33,830
Like what?

2197
01:14:34,270 --> 01:14:36,010
A guy like a Bill Burr.

2198
01:14:36,610 --> 01:14:37,090
Lefty.

2199
01:14:37,330 --> 01:14:38,050
Bill Burr.

2200
01:14:38,330 --> 01:14:38,810
Lefty.

2201
01:14:39,070 --> 01:14:41,170
Oh, oh, oh, oh, sorry.

2202
01:14:43,950 --> 01:14:44,330
I'm sorry.

2203
01:14:44,830 --> 01:14:45,950
Bill Burr, lefty.

2204
01:14:46,150 --> 01:14:47,910
Is going to get enticed into that space.

2205
01:14:48,190 --> 01:14:49,890
A guy like Louis CK.

2206
01:14:50,330 --> 01:14:50,810
Lefty.

2207
01:14:51,370 --> 01:14:51,850
Lefty.

2208
01:14:52,210 --> 01:14:53,990
These are leftist comedians.

2209
01:14:54,310 --> 01:14:54,790
CK.

2210
01:14:54,850 --> 01:14:55,830
Bill Burr has a podcast.

2211
01:14:55,830 --> 01:14:58,590
But I'm saying ramping it up, that there's

2212
01:14:58,590 --> 01:15:00,310
going to be money that puts it into

2213
01:15:00,310 --> 01:15:02,870
a steer where he's sitting with major people

2214
01:15:02,870 --> 01:15:04,970
as opposed to it just being an end.

2215
01:15:05,470 --> 01:15:06,030
That's what I'm saying.

2216
01:15:06,250 --> 01:15:07,950
Instead of it just being like an end

2217
01:15:07,950 --> 01:15:10,410
to what Bill Burr does, it's going to

2218
01:15:10,410 --> 01:15:11,370
be his thing.

2219
01:15:11,730 --> 01:15:11,870
Okay.

2220
01:15:12,810 --> 01:15:13,410
Stephen A.

2221
01:15:13,450 --> 01:15:17,010
Smith is going to explode on the landscape.

2222
01:15:17,170 --> 01:15:17,470
I don't know.

2223
01:15:17,610 --> 01:15:19,430
Do you know Stephen, Stephen A.

2224
01:15:19,450 --> 01:15:19,730
Smith?

2225
01:15:19,730 --> 01:15:19,870
Stephen A.

2226
01:15:19,870 --> 01:15:23,530
Smith is the black guy that is a

2227
01:15:23,530 --> 01:15:28,250
sportscaster who's a lefty, but he's actually more

2228
01:15:28,250 --> 01:15:29,370
of a righty recently.

2229
01:15:29,590 --> 01:15:30,990
He's actually going toward Trump.

2230
01:15:31,310 --> 01:15:33,470
And he's on the Mark Levin TV show

2231
01:15:33,470 --> 01:15:35,770
on Fox all the time as his buddy.

2232
01:15:35,930 --> 01:15:38,410
But if someone gave him enough money, he

2233
01:15:38,410 --> 01:15:40,070
would go right back to being lefty.

2234
01:15:40,170 --> 01:15:40,990
I'm just guessing.

2235
01:15:41,670 --> 01:15:43,490
Well, that may or may not be true.

2236
01:15:43,610 --> 01:15:44,430
But Stephen A.

2237
01:15:44,470 --> 01:15:46,290
Smith is one of those personalities that you

2238
01:15:46,290 --> 01:15:47,530
only take so much of.

2239
01:15:47,790 --> 01:15:48,330
He's good.

2240
01:15:48,910 --> 01:15:51,450
But he's not tolerable.

2241
01:15:51,770 --> 01:15:53,270
However, you can't just put up with him.

2242
01:15:53,310 --> 01:15:54,650
No, none of these people are going to

2243
01:15:54,650 --> 01:15:55,830
do what Joe Rogan does.

2244
01:15:55,830 --> 01:15:56,870
No, he's full of shit.

2245
01:15:56,950 --> 01:15:57,650
Okay, you're right.

2246
01:15:58,050 --> 01:15:58,670
I'm sorry.

2247
01:15:58,710 --> 01:15:59,250
But let's continue.

2248
01:15:59,790 --> 01:16:00,430
Stephen A.

2249
01:16:00,510 --> 01:16:03,990
Smith is going to explode on the landscape

2250
01:16:03,990 --> 01:16:04,990
of conversation.

2251
01:16:05,150 --> 01:16:07,690
So clearly we already know something.

2252
01:16:07,830 --> 01:16:09,490
There's a deal that's already been done with

2253
01:16:09,490 --> 01:16:10,010
Stephen A.

2254
01:16:10,050 --> 01:16:10,350
Smith.

2255
01:16:10,430 --> 01:16:10,730
Okay.

2256
01:16:10,930 --> 01:16:11,190
Okay.

2257
01:16:11,370 --> 01:16:13,950
And again, no disrespect to Rogan.

2258
01:16:14,110 --> 01:16:14,370
Okay.

2259
01:16:15,170 --> 01:16:16,590
We're never going to get through these questions.

2260
01:16:16,590 --> 01:16:19,670
And again, no disrespect to Rogan.

2261
01:16:19,750 --> 01:16:21,630
You must give him his props for building

2262
01:16:21,630 --> 01:16:22,330
a platform.

2263
01:16:22,610 --> 01:16:23,170
Good for him.

2264
01:16:23,490 --> 01:16:26,130
But now you're going to have better talent

2265
01:16:26,130 --> 01:16:27,170
in that space.

2266
01:16:27,310 --> 01:16:27,650
Okay.

2267
01:16:28,290 --> 01:16:28,730
Okay.

2268
01:16:28,990 --> 01:16:31,550
Now, the better talent in that space, which

2269
01:16:31,550 --> 01:16:33,210
is the pod space, also known as the

2270
01:16:33,210 --> 01:16:33,910
pod scape.

2271
01:16:34,130 --> 01:16:37,130
The whole time he's talking, I'm seeing behind

2272
01:16:37,130 --> 01:16:40,750
Cuomo a beautiful YouTube award.

2273
01:16:41,230 --> 01:16:44,150
A beautiful YouTube award, which you get for

2274
01:16:44,150 --> 01:16:45,370
being beautiful on YouTube.

2275
01:16:45,370 --> 01:16:48,530
And now in this final clip, it all

2276
01:16:48,530 --> 01:16:51,410
unrolls, for me at least, because I've been

2277
01:16:51,410 --> 01:16:54,250
tracking this push for a long time.

2278
01:16:55,070 --> 01:16:58,390
Google, a.k.a. YouTube, is going to

2279
01:16:58,390 --> 01:17:03,570
be financing a whole air America of podcasting

2280
01:17:03,570 --> 01:17:05,090
comedians on video.

2281
01:17:05,510 --> 01:17:07,210
And Chris Cuomo knows about it.

2282
01:17:07,450 --> 01:17:09,110
He knows what's going down, and I think

2283
01:17:09,110 --> 01:17:10,050
he's going to be part of it.

2284
01:17:10,050 --> 01:17:12,590
Just to piggyback on that, this came out

2285
01:17:12,590 --> 01:17:15,230
recently that more people are watching podcasts now

2286
01:17:15,230 --> 01:17:16,550
on YouTube, and you've been doing this.

2287
01:17:16,610 --> 01:17:18,530
This podcast dropped first on YouTube.

2288
01:17:18,750 --> 01:17:20,630
You, from the beginning, were like— So the

2289
01:17:20,630 --> 01:17:22,610
producer sets him up for it.

2290
01:17:22,630 --> 01:17:23,970
Hey, let's put myself online.

2291
01:17:24,190 --> 01:17:24,950
The producer's in on it.

2292
01:17:25,010 --> 01:17:26,210
Of course he's in on it.

2293
01:17:26,450 --> 01:17:27,370
So he sets it up.

2294
01:17:27,370 --> 01:17:29,450
Oh, this is a money grab.

2295
01:17:29,590 --> 01:17:30,090
Good for them.

2296
01:17:30,270 --> 01:17:30,590
Oh, yeah.

2297
01:17:30,790 --> 01:17:33,230
Just to piggyback on that, this came out

2298
01:17:33,230 --> 01:17:35,830
recently that more people are watching podcasts now

2299
01:17:35,830 --> 01:17:37,330
on YouTube, and you've been doing— Which, by

2300
01:17:37,330 --> 01:17:39,590
the way, is patently not true, but okay.

2301
01:17:39,590 --> 01:17:41,110
This podcast— And wait, stop.

2302
01:17:42,370 --> 01:17:43,190
You would know.

2303
01:17:43,530 --> 01:17:44,150
I would know.

2304
01:17:44,830 --> 01:17:45,210
Thank you.

2305
01:17:45,210 --> 01:17:47,590
You are the expert that never gets consulted

2306
01:17:47,590 --> 01:17:49,530
on these matters, and I bring this up

2307
01:17:49,530 --> 01:17:51,970
all the time because it's kind of a

2308
01:17:51,970 --> 01:17:54,050
thorn in both of our claws.

2309
01:17:54,210 --> 01:17:54,690
More yours.

2310
01:17:55,750 --> 01:17:57,330
Well, I'm the one who keeps bringing it

2311
01:17:57,330 --> 01:17:58,870
up because you don't want to, but I'll

2312
01:17:58,870 --> 01:17:59,370
bring it up.

2313
01:18:00,030 --> 01:18:02,630
You are never consulted on this, even though

2314
01:18:02,630 --> 01:18:06,110
you're responsible largely for the platform even existing.

2315
01:18:08,330 --> 01:18:08,970
There you go.

2316
01:18:09,030 --> 01:18:09,410
Enough said.

2317
01:18:09,410 --> 01:18:10,030
Enough said.

2318
01:18:10,370 --> 01:18:12,090
People are watching podcasts now on YouTube, and

2319
01:18:12,090 --> 01:18:12,750
you've been doing this.

2320
01:18:12,830 --> 01:18:14,730
This podcast dropped first on YouTube.

2321
01:18:14,950 --> 01:18:17,030
You, from the beginning, were like, hey, let's

2322
01:18:17,030 --> 01:18:17,690
put myself online.

2323
01:18:17,930 --> 01:18:19,190
People want to see me and hear me,

2324
01:18:19,290 --> 01:18:21,010
so it's like one product to one, but

2325
01:18:21,010 --> 01:18:22,510
the confluence is interesting to me.

2326
01:18:22,710 --> 01:18:22,990
Hold on.

2327
01:18:23,010 --> 01:18:23,330
Stop.

2328
01:18:23,630 --> 01:18:24,010
Sorry.

2329
01:18:24,850 --> 01:18:27,290
They want to see me and hear me.

2330
01:18:27,290 --> 01:18:27,810
What is this?

2331
01:18:28,550 --> 01:18:32,730
They don't necessarily want to see you or

2332
01:18:32,730 --> 01:18:33,110
anybody.

2333
01:18:33,290 --> 01:18:34,650
I don't even like looking at Cuomo.

2334
01:18:34,910 --> 01:18:35,910
This is the marketing.

2335
01:18:35,910 --> 01:18:38,850
And by the way, Spotify tried to get

2336
01:18:38,850 --> 01:18:41,470
in on this action, and they've so far

2337
01:18:41,470 --> 01:18:43,770
failed to launch properly for a whole bunch

2338
01:18:43,770 --> 01:18:44,270
of reasons.

2339
01:18:44,630 --> 01:18:46,730
But they know that YouTube is doing this

2340
01:18:46,730 --> 01:18:49,270
push, and I guarantee you there's going to

2341
01:18:49,270 --> 01:18:52,070
be big money from Google slash YouTube going

2342
01:18:52,070 --> 01:18:56,190
to leftists, if not complete left-wing.

2343
01:18:56,610 --> 01:18:58,470
They're going to do Air America on YouTube,

2344
01:18:58,650 --> 01:19:01,310
and YouTube doesn't have an audio platform.

2345
01:19:01,390 --> 01:19:03,610
They have a video platform, and this is

2346
01:19:03,610 --> 01:19:04,270
what they're doing.

2347
01:19:04,270 --> 01:19:05,650
Hey, let's put myself online.

2348
01:19:05,790 --> 01:19:07,150
People want to see me and hear me,

2349
01:19:07,210 --> 01:19:08,950
so it's like one product to one, but

2350
01:19:08,950 --> 01:19:10,450
the confluence is interesting to me.

2351
01:19:10,850 --> 01:19:12,150
This thing you used to listen to, it's

2352
01:19:12,150 --> 01:19:13,970
like, well, it's quite easy to get a

2353
01:19:13,970 --> 01:19:16,910
setup in your house like this and broadcast

2354
01:19:16,910 --> 01:19:19,330
in a very DIY way.

2355
01:19:19,730 --> 01:19:21,650
And people are now, especially a lot of

2356
01:19:21,650 --> 01:19:23,530
the YouTube stats are more people are watching

2357
01:19:23,530 --> 01:19:24,610
things on their televisions.

2358
01:19:24,790 --> 01:19:26,290
And thus, you sit down and watch a

2359
01:19:26,290 --> 01:19:26,470
show.

2360
01:19:26,550 --> 01:19:27,470
It's kind of a replacement talk show.

2361
01:19:27,510 --> 01:19:28,250
We talked about this before.

2362
01:19:29,530 --> 01:19:30,610
That's also bullcrap.

2363
01:19:31,480 --> 01:19:37,490
Prediction 1A is you will see mergers in

2364
01:19:37,490 --> 01:19:38,690
stream platforms.

2365
01:19:39,170 --> 01:19:39,750
Okay, Rumble.

2366
01:19:40,010 --> 01:19:41,590
Rumble, get ready to be bought.

2367
01:19:42,110 --> 01:19:45,010
I went to YouTube early because I believe

2368
01:19:45,010 --> 01:19:46,370
video kills the radio star.

2369
01:19:47,010 --> 01:19:48,710
Listen to what he's saying.

2370
01:19:49,270 --> 01:19:51,570
He believes video killed the radio star.

2371
01:19:52,350 --> 01:19:55,310
I went to YouTube early because I believe

2372
01:19:55,310 --> 01:19:56,590
video kills the radio star.

2373
01:19:56,610 --> 01:19:58,250
No, you went to YouTube early because you're

2374
01:19:58,250 --> 01:19:59,930
in on this complete gambit.

2375
01:19:59,930 --> 01:20:01,190
Good for you, by the way.

2376
01:20:01,270 --> 01:20:01,970
Good for you.

2377
01:20:02,450 --> 01:20:04,150
People want to see more than they want

2378
01:20:04,150 --> 01:20:04,530
to listen.

2379
01:20:04,630 --> 01:20:06,030
I'm not telling you not to listen.

2380
01:20:06,590 --> 01:20:07,810
Look, it's not my thing.

2381
01:20:08,010 --> 01:20:09,530
I do an audio book every now and

2382
01:20:09,530 --> 01:20:09,690
then.

2383
01:20:09,750 --> 01:20:10,410
I'd rather read.

2384
01:20:10,750 --> 01:20:11,490
But I want to see.

2385
01:20:11,610 --> 01:20:11,810
Why?

2386
01:20:12,310 --> 01:20:12,630
Why?

2387
01:20:12,630 --> 01:20:15,050
Because I'm a visual learner and you take

2388
01:20:15,050 --> 01:20:16,610
so much more in from people when you're

2389
01:20:16,610 --> 01:20:17,850
actually seeing them.

2390
01:20:17,970 --> 01:20:18,130
Yes.

2391
01:20:19,010 --> 01:20:21,890
The way people listen to podcasts on YouTube

2392
01:20:21,890 --> 01:20:24,170
is the YouTube app with it closed in

2393
01:20:24,170 --> 01:20:25,810
their pocket while it's playing.

2394
01:20:25,990 --> 01:20:27,390
That is the true numbers.

2395
01:20:27,390 --> 01:20:29,890
People are listening to them on YouTube.

2396
01:20:30,250 --> 01:20:31,550
That's what happens.

2397
01:20:31,810 --> 01:20:33,350
Do you want to watch it with Trump?

2398
01:20:33,450 --> 01:20:34,910
Yeah, you probably want to watch it with

2399
01:20:34,910 --> 01:20:35,210
Trump.

2400
01:20:35,370 --> 01:20:37,270
But what he's saying here is not true.

2401
01:20:37,350 --> 01:20:41,770
He's parroting the exact YouTube propaganda slash marketing

2402
01:20:41,770 --> 01:20:44,150
they've been rolling out for the past three

2403
01:20:44,150 --> 01:20:46,470
years at conferences, everywhere.

2404
01:20:46,830 --> 01:20:47,590
There's podcasts.

2405
01:20:47,710 --> 01:20:49,910
Oh, you got to have video.

2406
01:20:50,010 --> 01:20:51,070
Without video, there's nothing.

2407
01:20:51,190 --> 01:20:52,030
People want to see it.

2408
01:20:52,290 --> 01:20:53,770
This is the big YouTube push.

2409
01:20:53,770 --> 01:20:55,150
Obviously reading.

2410
01:20:55,370 --> 01:20:56,590
Let me stop again.

2411
01:20:57,110 --> 01:21:00,370
So this commentary that the video killed the

2412
01:21:00,370 --> 01:21:04,170
radio star, it only refers to MTV.

2413
01:21:04,430 --> 01:21:05,770
It refers to the buggles.

2414
01:21:06,150 --> 01:21:10,870
It refers to radio drama and radio, anything

2415
01:21:10,870 --> 01:21:16,770
that was radio pre 87 when radio took

2416
01:21:16,770 --> 01:21:20,950
over the talk show game on the right.

2417
01:21:20,950 --> 01:21:23,030
The right wingers all figured it out that

2418
01:21:23,030 --> 01:21:26,270
that radio yakkers on radio yak yak yakkers

2419
01:21:26,270 --> 01:21:29,970
and the call in shows were replaced.

2420
01:21:30,090 --> 01:21:34,290
The old radio video has not replaced those

2421
01:21:34,290 --> 01:21:34,850
guys.

2422
01:21:34,990 --> 01:21:37,290
When Rush Limbaugh tried to do TV, he

2423
01:21:37,290 --> 01:21:38,290
did it two or three times.

2424
01:21:38,570 --> 01:21:39,030
It was always.

2425
01:21:39,150 --> 01:21:40,350
I remember it was horrible.

2426
01:21:40,910 --> 01:21:43,570
And it turned out that Rush Limbaugh were

2427
01:21:43,570 --> 01:21:46,650
talking for three hours, three hours a day,

2428
01:21:46,670 --> 01:21:48,650
every day was much more effective.

2429
01:21:48,650 --> 01:21:49,890
Just pure audio.

2430
01:21:50,250 --> 01:21:52,690
And so that video killed.

2431
01:21:53,110 --> 01:21:56,130
And he made $400 million a year with

2432
01:21:56,130 --> 01:21:57,210
that radio program.

2433
01:21:57,810 --> 01:21:59,450
$400 million a year.

2434
01:21:59,570 --> 01:22:01,730
He was making a lot of money and

2435
01:22:01,730 --> 01:22:03,830
he did get a $400 million dollar deal.

2436
01:22:03,930 --> 01:22:05,450
I don't know if it wasn't per year.

2437
01:22:05,570 --> 01:22:05,710
I don't.

2438
01:22:05,790 --> 01:22:06,290
Yes, it was.

2439
01:22:06,410 --> 01:22:06,950
Yes, it was.

2440
01:22:07,050 --> 01:22:08,670
I had the same syndicators.

2441
01:22:08,870 --> 01:22:10,110
I know what they were doing.

2442
01:22:10,730 --> 01:22:12,130
Well, he was making plenty of money.

2443
01:22:12,250 --> 01:22:12,390
Yeah.

2444
01:22:12,390 --> 01:22:15,390
And the point is, is that the video

2445
01:22:15,390 --> 01:22:17,290
has never killed that aspect of it.

2446
01:22:17,370 --> 01:22:20,590
When it comes to talking, the talk show

2447
01:22:20,590 --> 01:22:22,530
format, you don't want video.

2448
01:22:22,710 --> 01:22:23,730
It doesn't work.

2449
01:22:24,490 --> 01:22:24,710
All right.

2450
01:22:24,870 --> 01:22:26,050
21 seconds left.

2451
01:22:26,110 --> 01:22:26,670
We can do it.

2452
01:22:27,190 --> 01:22:29,730
Obviously, reading them texts, you get the least

2453
01:22:29,730 --> 01:22:31,110
context, the least feel.

2454
01:22:31,550 --> 01:22:33,070
Hearing their voice, you get more.

2455
01:22:33,350 --> 01:22:34,750
But seeing them and hearing them.

2456
01:22:34,890 --> 01:22:35,750
This is YouTube.

2457
01:22:35,970 --> 01:22:37,150
This is YouTube's marketing.

2458
01:22:37,430 --> 01:22:38,370
To me, it's a no brainer.

2459
01:22:38,370 --> 01:22:41,430
But what you will see, prediction 1A, is

2460
01:22:41,430 --> 01:22:43,470
consolidation in platforms.

2461
01:22:43,610 --> 01:22:45,250
Because the problem right now is there are

2462
01:22:45,250 --> 01:22:47,710
too many different places that you have to

2463
01:22:47,710 --> 01:22:47,970
go.

2464
01:22:48,530 --> 01:22:50,430
And you need to monetize.

2465
01:22:50,610 --> 01:22:51,930
And they are going to start buying each

2466
01:22:51,930 --> 01:22:52,290
other up.

2467
01:22:52,670 --> 01:22:52,850
Yeah.

2468
01:22:52,990 --> 01:22:53,230
Okay.

2469
01:22:53,350 --> 01:22:55,150
YouTube is going on a buying spree.

2470
01:22:55,290 --> 01:22:57,210
They're doing exactly what Spotify did.

2471
01:22:57,290 --> 01:22:58,330
Which, by the way, I think will be

2472
01:22:58,330 --> 01:22:58,730
a mistake.

2473
01:22:58,810 --> 01:23:00,590
They will have exclusives to YouTube.

2474
01:23:01,150 --> 01:23:03,170
And it's going to be these comedians that

2475
01:23:03,170 --> 01:23:03,890
you just heard.

2476
01:23:04,190 --> 01:23:05,810
Chris Cuomo will have a part.

2477
01:23:05,810 --> 01:23:07,390
He may even have a network deal.

2478
01:23:07,530 --> 01:23:09,770
You know, so-called Chris Cuomo truth network

2479
01:23:09,770 --> 01:23:10,270
or whatever.

2480
01:23:11,970 --> 01:23:15,670
And, of course, Google's in with the Democrat

2481
01:23:15,670 --> 01:23:16,210
Party.

2482
01:23:16,570 --> 01:23:17,450
They're in on it.

2483
01:23:17,770 --> 01:23:20,590
No, they're Democrats is the point.

2484
01:23:20,790 --> 01:23:21,050
They're Democrats.

2485
01:23:21,190 --> 01:23:22,130
Yes, they're Democrats.

2486
01:23:22,390 --> 01:23:22,910
Big time.

2487
01:23:23,050 --> 01:23:25,370
And they're propagandistic Democrats.

2488
01:23:25,370 --> 01:23:27,290
But I'm going to tell you that this

2489
01:23:27,290 --> 01:23:27,990
will not work.

2490
01:23:28,090 --> 01:23:29,570
This is a flawed strategy.

2491
01:23:30,030 --> 01:23:31,270
We already can tell this.

2492
01:23:31,450 --> 01:23:31,550
Yeah.

2493
01:23:31,890 --> 01:23:33,030
But I want to mention something.

2494
01:23:33,030 --> 01:23:35,210
I don't think Chris Cuomo going on and

2495
01:23:35,210 --> 01:23:37,790
on about theorizing about podcasting when he's been

2496
01:23:37,790 --> 01:23:42,770
a broadcaster all his life is so loaded

2497
01:23:42,770 --> 01:23:43,790
with bull crap.

2498
01:23:43,870 --> 01:23:44,850
He's just full of it.

2499
01:23:44,910 --> 01:23:46,790
He doesn't know what he's talking about.

2500
01:23:47,870 --> 01:23:48,750
He doesn't.

2501
01:23:51,630 --> 01:23:52,390
Oh, man.

2502
01:23:52,450 --> 01:23:53,190
It's great, though.

2503
01:23:53,290 --> 01:23:53,790
It's great.

2504
01:23:54,210 --> 01:23:55,590
So he's in on it.

2505
01:23:55,630 --> 01:23:57,070
He's in on the YouTube deal.

2506
01:23:57,670 --> 01:24:01,270
And I'm pretty sure, not financial advice, but

2507
01:24:01,270 --> 01:24:03,010
I would think Rumble would be bought up.

2508
01:24:03,230 --> 01:24:05,810
I don't think Brideon is on deck for

2509
01:24:05,810 --> 01:24:06,910
an acquisition.

2510
01:24:07,410 --> 01:24:08,450
But this is- Bitch, shoot.

2511
01:24:08,650 --> 01:24:09,410
Bitch, shoot.

2512
01:24:09,450 --> 01:24:13,150
This is exactly what Spotify did.

2513
01:24:13,790 --> 01:24:15,250
And it's flawed.

2514
01:24:15,610 --> 01:24:16,830
And why?

2515
01:24:17,330 --> 01:24:17,870
It's flawed.

2516
01:24:18,250 --> 01:24:18,590
Why?

2517
01:24:19,250 --> 01:24:19,810
Why?

2518
01:24:20,110 --> 01:24:20,650
I'm going to start doing that.

2519
01:24:20,790 --> 01:24:21,830
I don't need you anymore.

2520
01:24:22,190 --> 01:24:22,610
It's flawed.

2521
01:24:22,710 --> 01:24:23,050
Why?

2522
01:24:23,050 --> 01:24:26,990
It's flawed because people are already burning out

2523
01:24:26,990 --> 01:24:28,610
on the format.

2524
01:24:28,930 --> 01:24:32,410
The format that Joe Rogan solidified, and Joe

2525
01:24:32,410 --> 01:24:35,230
still does well, is now Lex Friedman.

2526
01:24:35,710 --> 01:24:37,070
It's Theo Vaughn.

2527
01:24:38,210 --> 01:24:39,810
It's going to go on and on and

2528
01:24:39,810 --> 01:24:40,130
on and on.

2529
01:24:40,210 --> 01:24:41,890
And people get tired of the guests.

2530
01:24:42,030 --> 01:24:42,650
They get tired.

2531
01:24:42,750 --> 01:24:44,950
There's only so much room in people's lives

2532
01:24:44,950 --> 01:24:46,610
for a three-hour conversation.

2533
01:24:47,690 --> 01:24:49,810
And Rogan owns that space?

2534
01:24:49,850 --> 01:24:51,030
I think he does, yes.

2535
01:24:51,030 --> 01:24:54,370
And he's got a great interviewing style because

2536
01:24:54,370 --> 01:24:56,010
it's super casual.

2537
01:24:56,310 --> 01:24:57,470
It's down to earth.

2538
01:24:57,610 --> 01:24:59,030
He's got this chops to do it.

2539
01:24:59,070 --> 01:24:59,930
He knows what he's doing.

2540
01:25:00,430 --> 01:25:01,970
He keeps the conversation moving.

2541
01:25:02,090 --> 01:25:04,890
He seems inquisitive in a way that I

2542
01:25:04,890 --> 01:25:07,550
think the public feels the same way he

2543
01:25:07,550 --> 01:25:10,850
does when he has his inquisitive style or

2544
01:25:10,850 --> 01:25:12,030
his inquisitive questioning.

2545
01:25:13,530 --> 01:25:15,170
He's got that locked down.

2546
01:25:15,710 --> 01:25:17,070
He's not going anywhere.

2547
01:25:17,490 --> 01:25:17,610
No.

2548
01:25:18,870 --> 01:25:20,810
And these other guys are just trying to,

2549
01:25:20,970 --> 01:25:22,070
you know, everyone wants to be the next

2550
01:25:22,070 --> 01:25:22,590
Joe Rogan.

2551
01:25:22,670 --> 01:25:23,850
No, you've got Joe Rogan.

2552
01:25:23,970 --> 01:25:25,530
Be the next something else.

2553
01:25:26,770 --> 01:25:29,670
Well, but, I mean, you know from history

2554
01:25:29,670 --> 01:25:32,470
that they want to have the Rush Limbaugh

2555
01:25:32,470 --> 01:25:32,910
on the left.

2556
01:25:32,990 --> 01:25:34,550
They want the Joe Rogan of the left.

2557
01:25:34,630 --> 01:25:36,450
They thought it was call her daddy.

2558
01:25:37,110 --> 01:25:40,850
Massive fail, but they put— All Alex does

2559
01:25:40,850 --> 01:25:41,710
is talk about blowjobs.

2560
01:25:42,390 --> 01:25:44,970
If you've ever listened to her show, she's

2561
01:25:44,970 --> 01:25:46,310
preoccupied with it.

2562
01:25:46,330 --> 01:25:46,710
I don't.

2563
01:25:46,710 --> 01:25:48,230
Actually, I don't listen to her show.

2564
01:25:48,230 --> 01:25:49,770
Well, I have because I look for those

2565
01:25:49,770 --> 01:25:52,630
little end of show clips, which I collect,

2566
01:25:53,150 --> 01:25:55,030
and she's got the right voice for it.

2567
01:25:55,230 --> 01:25:57,570
And her old partner, Sophia with an F,

2568
01:25:57,970 --> 01:26:00,390
who actually does a better show than Alex

2569
01:26:00,390 --> 01:26:03,230
does because she's not— I mean, both of

2570
01:26:03,230 --> 01:26:06,850
these girls are perverted, which makes it kind

2571
01:26:06,850 --> 01:26:07,210
of interesting.

2572
01:26:07,230 --> 01:26:09,050
I think a lot of comedians need to

2573
01:26:09,050 --> 01:26:10,970
think long and hard about what they do

2574
01:26:10,970 --> 01:26:13,530
between now and the kickoff of this new

2575
01:26:13,530 --> 01:26:14,030
network.

2576
01:26:14,030 --> 01:26:16,010
I don't know what they're going to call

2577
01:26:16,010 --> 01:26:19,470
it, but it will be the YouTube—we'll just

2578
01:26:19,470 --> 01:26:21,090
call it Air America on YouTube.

2579
01:26:22,010 --> 01:26:24,470
Whitney Cummings is an example, who I think

2580
01:26:24,470 --> 01:26:25,430
is a fine comedian.

2581
01:26:26,070 --> 01:26:28,690
She blew all her chances during the New

2582
01:26:28,690 --> 01:26:32,070
Year's Eve coverage by CNN, which is basically

2583
01:26:32,070 --> 01:26:33,970
two gay guys and a ball dropping.

2584
01:26:34,850 --> 01:26:36,370
It's Anderson Cooper.

2585
01:26:36,610 --> 01:26:38,710
And also that big ball in Times Square.

2586
01:26:39,070 --> 01:26:39,830
Yes, exactly.

2587
01:26:39,830 --> 01:26:44,130
So she roasted 2024, and here's what she

2588
01:26:44,130 --> 01:26:44,970
said, very short.

2589
01:26:45,210 --> 01:26:47,310
2024 election fried our brains.

2590
01:26:47,430 --> 01:26:49,590
The Democrats couldn't hold a primary because they

2591
01:26:49,590 --> 01:26:51,110
were too busy holding a body upright.

2592
01:26:52,790 --> 01:26:53,790
Are we still rolling?

2593
01:26:53,910 --> 01:26:54,230
Am I off?

2594
01:26:54,270 --> 01:26:54,910
Go for it.

2595
01:26:56,070 --> 01:26:58,090
It was amazing that the pro-choice party

2596
01:26:58,090 --> 01:26:59,610
didn't give their voters one when it came

2597
01:26:59,610 --> 01:27:00,930
to the presidential candidate.

2598
01:27:01,630 --> 01:27:03,390
Kamala was forced on us so hard you'd

2599
01:27:03,390 --> 01:27:06,150
think she was patented by Pfizer or Moderna,

2600
01:27:06,330 --> 01:27:06,770
whichever one.

2601
01:27:07,130 --> 01:27:07,650
Oh, God.

2602
01:27:08,110 --> 01:27:09,570
Andy just gave me a very scary look.

2603
01:27:11,870 --> 01:27:13,410
She's disinvited from the party.

2604
01:27:15,590 --> 01:27:18,810
A little disparaging comment about Pfizer, you're done.

2605
01:27:18,950 --> 01:27:21,250
About Pfizer, Joe Biden, and Kamala Harris.

2606
01:27:21,470 --> 01:27:23,570
I mean, no, I think you kind of

2607
01:27:23,570 --> 01:27:24,810
ruined your chances there.

2608
01:27:25,030 --> 01:27:26,450
Well, she's out of the party circuit.

2609
01:27:26,630 --> 01:27:27,370
Yes, she is.

2610
01:27:28,250 --> 01:27:30,570
So anyway, that's what we have to look

2611
01:27:30,570 --> 01:27:32,470
forward to for 2025.

2612
01:27:32,870 --> 01:27:33,950
It's going to be a hootenanny.

2613
01:27:34,150 --> 01:27:35,390
It's going to be a lot of fun.

2614
01:27:35,610 --> 01:27:36,350
It's going to be great.

2615
01:27:37,290 --> 01:27:37,850
It's going to be great.

2616
01:27:38,050 --> 01:27:38,570
Oh, it's not.

2617
01:27:38,570 --> 01:27:41,090
It's going to be a lot of similar

2618
01:27:41,090 --> 01:27:43,290
shows competing with each other for the same

2619
01:27:43,290 --> 01:27:44,830
guests and the same talking points.

2620
01:27:45,790 --> 01:27:47,590
It's like those giant networks.

2621
01:27:47,710 --> 01:27:49,490
These guys set them up and there's one

2622
01:27:49,490 --> 01:27:50,190
show after another.

2623
01:27:50,330 --> 01:27:52,130
Nobody listens to any of them because they're

2624
01:27:52,130 --> 01:27:53,990
all basically the same format.

2625
01:27:54,230 --> 01:27:54,610
They're dumb.

2626
01:27:55,110 --> 01:27:55,750
Yes, they are.

2627
01:27:56,210 --> 01:27:57,510
It's completely dumb.

2628
01:27:58,270 --> 01:27:59,370
The whole thing is dumb.

2629
01:28:02,330 --> 01:28:04,110
Take us somewhere else, John.

2630
01:28:04,170 --> 01:28:04,970
Let's do something else.

2631
01:28:05,090 --> 01:28:05,330
Why?

2632
01:28:05,330 --> 01:28:08,170
I do have a couple of New Year's

2633
01:28:08,170 --> 01:28:08,270
things.

2634
01:28:08,350 --> 01:28:10,190
This is all over the place.

2635
01:28:11,170 --> 01:28:15,550
Have you heard about the KOMARI method?

2636
01:28:16,250 --> 01:28:17,330
The KOMARI method?

2637
01:28:18,310 --> 01:28:18,890
KONMARI.

2638
01:28:19,110 --> 01:28:21,730
K-O-N-M-A-R-I method.

2639
01:28:21,930 --> 01:28:22,030
No.

2640
01:28:22,390 --> 01:28:24,010
It's in Good Housekeeping.

2641
01:28:24,390 --> 01:28:25,670
It's in every magazine.

2642
01:28:25,670 --> 01:28:28,150
This is the big thing for 2025.

2643
01:28:28,150 --> 01:28:31,490
It's a cleaning method, which appeals to me

2644
01:28:31,490 --> 01:28:34,270
at least in basis because it has like,

2645
01:28:34,350 --> 01:28:36,130
oh, maybe I can clean up my office.

2646
01:28:37,490 --> 01:28:39,590
And it's a big deal for 2025.

2647
01:28:40,010 --> 01:28:42,890
We can probably have two clips, one longer

2648
01:28:42,890 --> 01:28:43,350
than the other.

2649
01:28:43,450 --> 01:28:46,810
But this introduces it, the KONMARI method.

2650
01:28:47,030 --> 01:28:48,570
And there's no time like the start of

2651
01:28:48,570 --> 01:28:50,570
a new year to finally organize your home.

2652
01:28:50,690 --> 01:28:53,290
The KONMARI method of home organizing just might

2653
01:28:53,290 --> 01:28:54,770
be what you need to put your home

2654
01:28:54,770 --> 01:28:56,590
in order once and for all.

2655
01:28:56,590 --> 01:28:59,710
The simple methodology created by Japanese Titan guru

2656
01:28:59,710 --> 01:29:03,450
Marikondo asks homemakers to sort through every individual

2657
01:29:03,450 --> 01:29:04,270
item they own.

2658
01:29:04,730 --> 01:29:06,530
You figure out whether or not each one

2659
01:29:06,530 --> 01:29:09,050
brings you joy, determining what to keep and

2660
01:29:09,050 --> 01:29:10,150
how to store it.

2661
01:29:10,630 --> 01:29:13,450
Kondo recommends doing this by category, beginning with

2662
01:29:13,450 --> 01:29:16,990
clothing, then books, paperwork, miscellaneous items, and finally,

2663
01:29:17,190 --> 01:29:17,970
mementos.

2664
01:29:18,490 --> 01:29:20,130
Entity's Chris Spears wanted to find out what

2665
01:29:20,130 --> 01:29:21,790
it's like to actually do this.

2666
01:29:21,790 --> 01:29:23,950
So he met with film history teacher David

2667
01:29:23,950 --> 01:29:26,010
Grotto, who did the KONMARI method with the

2668
01:29:26,010 --> 01:29:27,710
help of a KONMARI consultant.

2669
01:29:28,050 --> 01:29:32,210
Okay, this is a repackaging of Marikondo's method,

2670
01:29:32,310 --> 01:29:33,890
which has been around for years.

2671
01:29:34,490 --> 01:29:35,370
This is not new.

2672
01:29:35,390 --> 01:29:36,370
It's really been repopular, right?

2673
01:29:36,410 --> 01:29:37,330
You're right, repackaged.

2674
01:29:37,510 --> 01:29:37,730
It's not new.

2675
01:29:37,970 --> 01:29:40,450
And by the way, if I may, the

2676
01:29:40,450 --> 01:29:45,350
Marikondo method of packing your suitcase is one

2677
01:29:45,350 --> 01:29:47,610
that my wife, the keeper, follows.

2678
01:29:48,370 --> 01:29:50,830
And it's a very interesting method.

2679
01:29:52,170 --> 01:29:53,130
Please explain.

2680
01:29:53,470 --> 01:29:55,730
It consists of rolling everything up.

2681
01:29:56,530 --> 01:29:58,910
You roll things up into a tube.

2682
01:30:00,310 --> 01:30:03,290
And again, she is the best packer.

2683
01:30:03,510 --> 01:30:04,830
This is what attracted me to her.

2684
01:30:05,330 --> 01:30:06,990
She is one of the best packers in

2685
01:30:06,990 --> 01:30:07,530
the universe.

2686
01:30:07,870 --> 01:30:09,350
That's how she got the nickname that I

2687
01:30:09,350 --> 01:30:09,650
gave her.

2688
01:30:09,670 --> 01:30:10,170
That's correct.

2689
01:30:10,270 --> 01:30:11,670
That's how she got the keeper, because she

2690
01:30:11,670 --> 01:30:12,590
can pack a suitcase.

2691
01:30:12,590 --> 01:30:16,310
I have arguments with my wife, my beautiful

2692
01:30:16,310 --> 01:30:18,390
Tina Marie, every single time.

2693
01:30:18,490 --> 01:30:21,310
We go to Europe, she says, well, I

2694
01:30:21,310 --> 01:30:23,070
want to get into one suitcase, but you

2695
01:30:23,070 --> 01:30:23,690
know, there's a lot.

2696
01:30:23,790 --> 01:30:25,330
I said, well, can we take two suitcases?

2697
01:30:25,950 --> 01:30:28,550
No, I don't want to have a suitcase

2698
01:30:28,550 --> 01:30:29,510
that is half full.

2699
01:30:29,910 --> 01:30:32,530
She literally has a problem with packing a

2700
01:30:32,530 --> 01:30:33,630
suitcase half full.

2701
01:30:33,930 --> 01:30:35,310
She wants to try and get it all

2702
01:30:35,310 --> 01:30:35,930
into one.

2703
01:30:36,830 --> 01:30:37,590
That's good for her.

2704
01:30:37,670 --> 01:30:38,570
It's amazing.

2705
01:30:38,570 --> 01:30:41,390
Well, if you've ever traveled with somebody who

2706
01:30:41,390 --> 01:30:41,630
overpacks.

2707
01:30:42,290 --> 01:30:43,030
We're paying for two.

2708
01:30:43,110 --> 01:30:44,610
I said, we're paying for two suitcases.

2709
01:30:44,710 --> 01:30:45,570
We can take two.

2710
01:30:46,110 --> 01:30:46,890
It's prepaid.

2711
01:30:47,350 --> 01:30:50,450
You should put an online advertisement.

2712
01:30:50,630 --> 01:30:53,990
You'll be shipping goods, and you can use

2713
01:30:53,990 --> 01:30:55,810
the second suitcase for product.

2714
01:30:56,010 --> 01:30:58,030
For product and profit.

2715
01:30:59,050 --> 01:31:00,390
All right, the KonMari method.

2716
01:31:00,670 --> 01:31:03,170
So the KonMari method, which is outlined in

2717
01:31:03,170 --> 01:31:04,730
the second part of the clip, and it

2718
01:31:04,730 --> 01:31:07,050
goes on forever, but I ended it after

2719
01:31:07,050 --> 01:31:09,230
this longish clip.

2720
01:31:09,930 --> 01:31:11,650
Give me a break.

2721
01:31:12,170 --> 01:31:13,550
That would summarize.

2722
01:31:14,110 --> 01:31:15,150
You have an item.

2723
01:31:15,250 --> 01:31:16,010
I've got this item.

2724
01:31:16,150 --> 01:31:18,090
Let me look at my desk right here.

2725
01:31:18,170 --> 01:31:20,010
A random item.

2726
01:31:20,510 --> 01:31:21,250
I got an item.

2727
01:31:22,230 --> 01:31:24,570
It's this little noisemaker.

2728
01:31:25,870 --> 01:31:27,230
So the noisemaker.

2729
01:31:29,150 --> 01:31:29,670
Stop.

2730
01:31:30,890 --> 01:31:32,610
If it gives me joy.

2731
01:31:32,810 --> 01:31:33,630
Yes, you keep it.

2732
01:31:33,630 --> 01:31:34,470
I keep it.

2733
01:31:34,690 --> 01:31:34,850
Yes.

2734
01:31:35,230 --> 01:31:37,250
That's basically all there is to it.

2735
01:31:37,330 --> 01:31:38,930
Yes, if it gives you joy, keep it.

2736
01:31:39,010 --> 01:31:39,970
If not, it's out.

2737
01:31:43,190 --> 01:31:44,890
Well, it gives me joy.

2738
01:31:45,250 --> 01:31:46,890
Hey, there's a modem going off.

2739
01:31:49,130 --> 01:31:50,930
More importantly, it gives me joy.

2740
01:31:51,010 --> 01:31:53,210
It gives everybody joy to hear your noisemakers.

2741
01:31:54,530 --> 01:31:58,010
Your office should just be a desk, a

2742
01:31:58,010 --> 01:31:59,710
computer, and a lot of noisemakers.

2743
01:31:59,790 --> 01:32:02,110
Nothing else gives you joy like those noisemakers.

2744
01:32:02,590 --> 01:32:04,710
That's the go-to gift for John C.

2745
01:32:04,830 --> 01:32:05,190
Dvorak.

2746
01:32:05,610 --> 01:32:06,730
What should I give Grandpa?

2747
01:32:06,890 --> 01:32:07,410
A noisemaker?

2748
01:32:07,910 --> 01:32:10,070
We had one of our producer females that

2749
01:32:10,070 --> 01:32:11,310
was sending me a lot of stuff.

2750
01:32:11,870 --> 01:32:14,150
She's the one that sent me this kind

2751
01:32:14,150 --> 01:32:17,770
of a thunder things.

2752
01:32:20,050 --> 01:32:21,350
A lot of this came from her.

2753
01:32:21,710 --> 01:32:23,430
I think she stopped listening to the show.

2754
01:32:23,590 --> 01:32:25,410
Well, because of the noisemakers, obviously.

2755
01:32:25,550 --> 01:32:25,930
Here we go.

2756
01:32:26,050 --> 01:32:26,990
I have too much stuff.

2757
01:32:27,170 --> 01:32:28,730
I'm kind of a pack rat, especially with

2758
01:32:28,730 --> 01:32:28,850
books.

2759
01:32:28,850 --> 01:32:30,050
Okay, stop right away.

2760
01:32:30,890 --> 01:32:33,510
This will be my last interruption.

2761
01:32:33,970 --> 01:32:36,890
This guy who's some teacher, and he's moved

2762
01:32:36,890 --> 01:32:38,590
into a small New York apartment.

2763
01:32:38,730 --> 01:32:39,590
He's got too much junk.

2764
01:32:40,150 --> 01:32:43,690
He is sitting in a chair that is

2765
01:32:43,690 --> 01:32:45,170
the size of a room.

2766
01:32:45,670 --> 01:32:50,450
It's a big, giant chair that is taking

2767
01:32:50,450 --> 01:32:52,530
up half the space of his apartment, and

2768
01:32:52,530 --> 01:32:55,070
he's sitting in this thing as they're interviewing

2769
01:32:55,070 --> 01:32:55,870
him on video.

2770
01:32:55,870 --> 01:32:57,910
And I'm thinking, if you got rid of

2771
01:32:57,910 --> 01:33:00,150
that chair, you'd have plenty of room for

2772
01:33:00,150 --> 01:33:00,530
everything.

2773
01:33:00,670 --> 01:33:02,330
But okay, anyway, I just thought I'd mention

2774
01:33:02,330 --> 01:33:02,510
it.

2775
01:33:02,690 --> 01:33:03,750
I have too much stuff.

2776
01:33:03,910 --> 01:33:05,470
I'm kind of a pack rat, especially with

2777
01:33:05,470 --> 01:33:07,950
books, records, and memorabilia things.

2778
01:33:08,310 --> 01:33:10,470
And so it just got out of control.

2779
01:33:10,750 --> 01:33:13,070
I mean, the apartment is overrun already with

2780
01:33:13,070 --> 01:33:13,490
stuff.

2781
01:33:14,770 --> 01:33:16,330
And, you know, I felt like I was

2782
01:33:16,330 --> 01:33:17,990
in danger of being one of those hoarders.

2783
01:33:18,710 --> 01:33:20,790
David moved into his New York City apartment

2784
01:33:20,790 --> 01:33:21,850
in 2018.

2785
01:33:21,850 --> 01:33:24,930
He emptied a lifetime worth of stuff from

2786
01:33:24,930 --> 01:33:27,550
his storage locker into his small space.

2787
01:33:28,130 --> 01:33:30,310
With the ensuing clutter, he knew he had

2788
01:33:30,310 --> 01:33:31,470
to do something about it.

2789
01:33:31,970 --> 01:33:34,670
Originally, I just thought I want to hide

2790
01:33:34,670 --> 01:33:37,630
everything and make it just neat, you know.

2791
01:33:38,970 --> 01:33:40,830
But then I discovered that I really had

2792
01:33:40,830 --> 01:33:41,870
to let go of stuff.

2793
01:33:42,650 --> 01:33:44,970
To help him do that, David hired professional

2794
01:33:44,970 --> 01:33:47,190
home organizer Hiroko Watanabe.

2795
01:33:47,190 --> 01:33:50,550
She uses the Konmari tidying method and is

2796
01:33:50,550 --> 01:33:53,070
a certified master Konmari consultant.

2797
01:33:54,250 --> 01:33:55,030
I mean, I don't know how it is

2798
01:33:55,030 --> 01:33:55,510
for other people.

2799
01:33:55,570 --> 01:33:58,590
But I can't imagine anyone doing this just

2800
01:33:58,590 --> 01:34:00,590
on their own, just by reading Marie Kondo's

2801
01:34:00,590 --> 01:34:01,610
book or watching her show.

2802
01:34:01,750 --> 01:34:04,390
I can't imagine anybody really doing this without

2803
01:34:04,390 --> 01:34:06,290
some, you know, help.

2804
01:34:06,910 --> 01:34:09,130
On day one with a new client, Hiroko

2805
01:34:09,130 --> 01:34:11,770
goes through a sort of ritual where she

2806
01:34:11,770 --> 01:34:14,090
kneels in the middle of the space in

2807
01:34:14,090 --> 01:34:14,590
the house.

2808
01:34:14,990 --> 01:34:15,090
Space.

2809
01:34:15,090 --> 01:34:18,090
Quietly closes her eyes and does what she

2810
01:34:18,090 --> 01:34:20,350
calls greeting the home where she sort of

2811
01:34:20,350 --> 01:34:21,430
introduces herself.

2812
01:34:22,150 --> 01:34:23,790
What is this nonsense?

2813
01:34:24,290 --> 01:34:26,690
Support the client in the process of becoming

2814
01:34:26,690 --> 01:34:27,490
and staying organized.

2815
01:34:28,330 --> 01:34:31,350
Then she goes through a process of helping

2816
01:34:31,350 --> 01:34:33,670
the client come up with a vision for

2817
01:34:33,670 --> 01:34:34,750
their ideal lifestyle.

2818
01:34:34,990 --> 01:34:37,730
And this simple vision helps guide the entire

2819
01:34:37,730 --> 01:34:39,070
organizing journey.

2820
01:34:40,130 --> 01:34:43,350
The Konmari method is very unique method.

2821
01:34:44,590 --> 01:34:49,290
What you want is by touching the item

2822
01:34:49,290 --> 01:34:52,110
and if the item is a spark joy

2823
01:34:52,110 --> 01:34:52,630
or not.

2824
01:34:52,890 --> 01:34:56,170
And if that item is not spark joy,

2825
01:34:56,570 --> 01:34:57,230
let it go.

2826
01:34:57,610 --> 01:35:01,570
And when you let it go, let it

2827
01:35:01,570 --> 01:35:02,530
go with gratitude.

2828
01:35:03,290 --> 01:35:04,670
This is wow.

2829
01:35:05,170 --> 01:35:06,310
What a great business.

2830
01:35:06,430 --> 01:35:08,050
This is one of the best business ideas

2831
01:35:08,050 --> 01:35:08,950
for 2025.

2832
01:35:08,950 --> 01:35:10,810
If you're looking to get into a new

2833
01:35:10,810 --> 01:35:14,130
business, go and greet the home at the

2834
01:35:14,130 --> 01:35:15,610
people who you're going to help organize.

2835
01:35:15,770 --> 01:35:17,210
Be a professional home organizer.

2836
01:35:17,610 --> 01:35:19,250
I believe this has a great future.

2837
01:35:19,550 --> 01:35:20,590
It helps if you're Asian.

2838
01:35:21,210 --> 01:35:22,670
So you can spark a joy.

2839
01:35:24,010 --> 01:35:25,190
This is crazy.

2840
01:35:25,670 --> 01:35:26,510
This is crazy.

2841
01:35:27,170 --> 01:35:27,690
Spark a joy.

2842
01:35:27,930 --> 01:35:28,170
You're racist.

2843
01:35:28,550 --> 01:35:29,350
Yes, I'm racist.

2844
01:35:29,550 --> 01:35:31,270
If it's spark a joy, you keep it.

2845
01:35:31,510 --> 01:35:32,030
Very good.

2846
01:35:32,270 --> 01:35:33,410
I'm Marie Kondo method.

2847
01:35:33,730 --> 01:35:34,050
Please.

2848
01:35:34,410 --> 01:35:34,770
All right.

2849
01:35:35,410 --> 01:35:37,170
Then let me do the last of the

2850
01:35:37,170 --> 01:35:38,450
2025 predictions.

2851
01:35:38,450 --> 01:35:40,610
I wouldn't have played this if it wasn't

2852
01:35:40,610 --> 01:35:41,410
on the BBC.

2853
01:35:42,910 --> 01:35:46,850
It's actually predictions for up to 2050 because

2854
01:35:46,850 --> 01:35:49,990
this old coot can apparently see that.

2855
01:35:50,130 --> 01:35:51,490
I don't think he'll be with us in

2856
01:35:51,490 --> 01:35:54,310
2050, but here's what it's going to be.

2857
01:35:54,430 --> 01:35:55,350
Get ready, everybody.

2858
01:35:55,530 --> 01:35:56,390
Let's look forward.

2859
01:35:56,510 --> 01:35:59,350
Can you paint a picture for us of

2860
01:35:59,350 --> 01:36:01,990
what if we survived and perhaps we will

2861
01:36:01,990 --> 01:36:05,370
in this new world to 2125, what our

2862
01:36:05,370 --> 01:36:06,290
world would be like?

2863
01:36:06,290 --> 01:36:09,190
Well, let's just look at 2050 first, because

2864
01:36:09,190 --> 01:36:10,830
that really gives us a whole lot.

2865
01:36:11,070 --> 01:36:12,250
This guy's good.

2866
01:36:12,490 --> 01:36:15,650
That's how far away 100 years is going

2867
01:36:15,650 --> 01:36:15,870
to be.

2868
01:36:16,030 --> 01:36:18,050
2050 is only 25 years away.

2869
01:36:18,430 --> 01:36:21,010
We will have direct links between our brains

2870
01:36:21,010 --> 01:36:22,910
and computers by then.

2871
01:36:23,210 --> 01:36:25,670
Then the computers will be hundreds or maybe

2872
01:36:25,670 --> 01:36:29,550
even millions of times with their very advanced

2873
01:36:29,550 --> 01:36:30,930
conscious eyes.

2874
01:36:31,150 --> 01:36:33,310
And if you've got access to that, it

2875
01:36:33,310 --> 01:36:36,110
basically multiplies your IQ by about 1000.

2876
01:36:36,110 --> 01:36:37,750
You just add an extra two or three

2877
01:36:37,750 --> 01:36:39,210
digits onto your IQ.

2878
01:36:39,910 --> 01:36:41,510
In the same time frame, we have the

2879
01:36:41,510 --> 01:36:44,010
ability to link your brain to the computer

2880
01:36:44,010 --> 01:36:47,310
so well that 99 percent of your thoughts

2881
01:36:47,310 --> 01:36:48,890
will happen inside the computer.

2882
01:36:49,550 --> 01:36:51,510
And when your body dies of old age

2883
01:36:51,510 --> 01:36:54,250
and you get cremated, it doesn't really matter.

2884
01:36:54,410 --> 01:36:56,150
You can just carry on using the 99

2885
01:36:56,150 --> 01:36:58,030
percent, which you've already got running in the

2886
01:36:58,030 --> 01:36:58,470
computers.

2887
01:36:58,890 --> 01:37:00,710
Go back to work on Monday morning, hire

2888
01:37:00,710 --> 01:37:02,570
an Android and you're back in the real

2889
01:37:02,570 --> 01:37:02,950
world.

2890
01:37:02,950 --> 01:37:05,110
So that's the kind of world we're looking

2891
01:37:05,110 --> 01:37:06,110
at in 2050.

2892
01:37:06,450 --> 01:37:10,390
You will have virtually electronic immortality, vastly superhuman

2893
01:37:10,390 --> 01:37:12,830
IQs, and you'll even start to get some

2894
01:37:12,830 --> 01:37:16,010
basic superpowers because you can modify your genetics

2895
01:37:16,010 --> 01:37:17,990
in the 2050 time frame too.

2896
01:37:18,430 --> 01:37:21,510
So the second business idea for 2025 is

2897
01:37:21,510 --> 01:37:23,170
become a futurologist.

2898
01:37:23,430 --> 01:37:26,670
Just get business cards, print it up, futurologist,

2899
01:37:26,990 --> 01:37:28,630
and you can get on the BBC and

2900
01:37:28,630 --> 01:37:29,910
spout stuff like this.

2901
01:37:29,910 --> 01:37:31,850
That is outrageous.

2902
01:37:32,350 --> 01:37:35,550
The guy with the butterfly net should go

2903
01:37:35,550 --> 01:37:37,010
pick him up immediately.

2904
01:37:37,450 --> 01:37:39,010
If you're going to do this, wait, I've

2905
01:37:39,010 --> 01:37:39,670
got a topper.

2906
01:37:39,870 --> 01:37:41,930
No, but I'm trying to get to the

2907
01:37:41,930 --> 01:37:42,590
break here.

2908
01:37:43,190 --> 01:37:44,510
Well, you're going to get to the break

2909
01:37:44,510 --> 01:37:45,290
right after this.

2910
01:37:45,330 --> 01:37:45,710
Okay.

2911
01:37:45,910 --> 01:37:46,710
Because I've got three clips.

2912
01:37:46,830 --> 01:37:47,610
Oh, no.

2913
01:37:49,030 --> 01:37:49,470
Yes.

2914
01:37:49,870 --> 01:37:51,950
This is the big thing they're doing now.

2915
01:37:52,050 --> 01:37:54,510
This is all over the place, and they

2916
01:37:54,510 --> 01:37:55,810
have it on different…

2917
01:37:55,810 --> 01:37:56,350
Wait a minute.

2918
01:37:56,370 --> 01:37:57,070
Wait a minute.

2919
01:37:57,210 --> 01:37:59,450
You just said that about Marie Kondo, which

2920
01:37:59,450 --> 01:38:01,650
was a repackage of five years ago.

2921
01:38:01,650 --> 01:38:02,690
Same thing.

2922
01:38:02,830 --> 01:38:04,810
This is the repackage of what happens every

2923
01:38:04,810 --> 01:38:04,970
year.

2924
01:38:05,050 --> 01:38:06,690
But this time, NPR is going to an

2925
01:38:06,690 --> 01:38:08,490
extreme, and they're pushing the hell out of

2926
01:38:08,490 --> 01:38:08,730
this.

2927
01:38:10,390 --> 01:38:11,190
Dry January.

2928
01:38:11,970 --> 01:38:12,750
Oh, yeah.

2929
01:38:12,890 --> 01:38:13,930
Dry January.

2930
01:38:14,430 --> 01:38:16,010
Now, so I have three clips, and this

2931
01:38:16,010 --> 01:38:17,310
will take us right out of here because

2932
01:38:17,310 --> 01:38:19,090
the last clip is a dynamite one.

2933
01:38:19,150 --> 01:38:19,530
Okay.

2934
01:38:19,870 --> 01:38:20,830
It would still go right.

2935
01:38:20,970 --> 01:38:22,290
You don't even have to do a joke

2936
01:38:22,290 --> 01:38:22,790
after it.

2937
01:38:22,890 --> 01:38:23,230
Here we go.

2938
01:38:23,290 --> 01:38:24,030
Dry Jan.

2939
01:38:24,030 --> 01:38:26,950
Dry January, when people take a break from

2940
01:38:26,950 --> 01:38:29,390
drinking alcohol for the month, has become a

2941
01:38:29,390 --> 01:38:31,630
popular practice at the start of the new

2942
01:38:31,630 --> 01:38:32,090
year.

2943
01:38:32,230 --> 01:38:34,690
By the way, from the millennial in New

2944
01:38:34,690 --> 01:38:37,970
York who currently is working in the service

2945
01:38:37,970 --> 01:38:41,230
industry, she is very concerned about dry January.

2946
01:38:41,550 --> 01:38:44,490
She feels that because of dry January, her

2947
01:38:44,490 --> 01:38:46,290
tips will dry up as well.

2948
01:38:47,450 --> 01:38:51,410
So if you listen to these reports, these

2949
01:38:51,410 --> 01:38:54,230
same people should be giving mocktails and giving

2950
01:38:54,230 --> 01:38:55,010
big tips.

2951
01:38:55,650 --> 01:38:58,430
Virginia Public Radio's Brad Kuttner spoke with researchers

2952
01:38:58,430 --> 01:39:00,690
who say a pause is a good idea,

2953
01:39:00,890 --> 01:39:02,770
even if it's just for one month.

2954
01:39:03,290 --> 01:39:05,430
Heads up to those who imbibe Dr. J

2955
01:39:05,430 --> 01:39:07,870
.P. Arab, director of alcohol sciences at VCU

2956
01:39:07,870 --> 01:39:09,530
Health, has some bad news.

2957
01:39:09,710 --> 01:39:13,010
Now we have extensive data showing that there

2958
01:39:13,010 --> 01:39:15,210
is no benefit of alcohol.

2959
01:39:16,730 --> 01:39:18,530
Arab's focus is on liver problems.

2960
01:39:18,930 --> 01:39:21,090
He's seen patients without other symptoms walk into

2961
01:39:21,090 --> 01:39:23,090
his office because they've suddenly turned yellow from

2962
01:39:23,090 --> 01:39:25,230
jaundice, which means their liver is shut down,

2963
01:39:25,370 --> 01:39:26,950
often from alcohol abuse.

2964
01:39:27,530 --> 01:39:29,030
Arab said there's no nerves in your liver,

2965
01:39:29,150 --> 01:39:30,650
so you won't know until it's too late.

2966
01:39:30,990 --> 01:39:32,230
But even if you're not sure you've got

2967
01:39:32,230 --> 01:39:33,850
a problem, it may be a good time

2968
01:39:33,850 --> 01:39:36,410
to try dry January just to find out.

2969
01:39:36,590 --> 01:39:39,250
VCU professor Francesca Lynn has taken part in

2970
01:39:39,250 --> 01:39:40,810
dry January a few times.

2971
01:39:41,210 --> 01:39:42,450
Sometimes her friends were doing it.

2972
01:39:42,450 --> 01:39:44,110
Other times she lost a loved one and

2973
01:39:44,110 --> 01:39:45,570
didn't want to fall down a worse path.

2974
01:39:45,790 --> 01:39:48,090
She still drinks occasionally now, but she can

2975
01:39:48,090 --> 01:39:49,570
see why it might help those who need

2976
01:39:49,570 --> 01:39:49,730
it.

2977
01:39:49,910 --> 01:39:52,830
If you want to do something and stick

2978
01:39:52,830 --> 01:39:56,230
to something, then maybe it's just like maybe

2979
01:39:56,230 --> 01:39:57,010
it's not the alcohol.

2980
01:39:57,110 --> 01:39:57,970
Maybe it's goal setting.

2981
01:39:58,350 --> 01:40:00,770
Bartenders told me January is their slowest month.

2982
01:40:01,050 --> 01:40:02,570
So if you order a mocktail in line

2983
01:40:02,570 --> 01:40:04,790
with your dry January experiment the next few

2984
01:40:04,790 --> 01:40:07,170
weeks, consider tipping like it's top shelf.

2985
01:40:07,170 --> 01:40:09,170
All right.

2986
01:40:10,130 --> 01:40:11,030
So then it goes on.

2987
01:40:11,190 --> 01:40:11,610
They do.

2988
01:40:11,870 --> 01:40:14,310
As I listen more and hear the same

2989
01:40:14,310 --> 01:40:16,850
story repurposed in different ways.

2990
01:40:17,230 --> 01:40:19,590
And so they finally came up with these

2991
01:40:19,590 --> 01:40:20,630
last two clips.

2992
01:40:21,470 --> 01:40:22,890
And this is different.

2993
01:40:23,090 --> 01:40:25,170
People have come on and they have some

2994
01:40:25,170 --> 01:40:26,410
some ideas.

2995
01:40:26,690 --> 01:40:29,010
Oh, so how you can do this in

2996
01:40:29,010 --> 01:40:29,190
this.

2997
01:40:29,330 --> 01:40:31,590
The first one is sober treats.

2998
01:40:31,830 --> 01:40:32,370
Oh, goodness.

2999
01:40:32,970 --> 01:40:33,270
Yeah.

3000
01:40:33,270 --> 01:40:36,930
I mean, my favorite thing to suggest is

3001
01:40:36,930 --> 01:40:39,370
to actually plan out what I call sober

3002
01:40:39,370 --> 01:40:39,970
treats.

3003
01:40:40,970 --> 01:40:43,110
And in the beginning, in your first week

3004
01:40:43,110 --> 01:40:45,830
or two, I recommend planning them out every

3005
01:40:45,830 --> 01:40:46,490
single day.

3006
01:40:46,990 --> 01:40:50,330
So, for example, on Friday nights, instead of

3007
01:40:50,330 --> 01:40:52,530
getting a bottle of wine, I would maybe

3008
01:40:52,530 --> 01:40:53,730
get a pedicure.

3009
01:40:54,270 --> 01:40:56,510
During the week, it might be blocking off

3010
01:40:56,510 --> 01:40:58,870
an hour on my calendar and going for

3011
01:40:58,870 --> 01:41:01,410
a walk somewhere really nice with music on.

3012
01:41:01,410 --> 01:41:04,430
Getting sushi takeout and watching a movie.

3013
01:41:04,590 --> 01:41:08,110
And honestly, once you stop drinking, like waking

3014
01:41:08,110 --> 01:41:11,910
up, feeling good, feeling clear, being in your

3015
01:41:11,910 --> 01:41:14,270
home in the morning when it's quiet with

3016
01:41:14,270 --> 01:41:14,710
coffee.

3017
01:41:14,990 --> 01:41:16,470
That's a sober treat.

3018
01:41:16,670 --> 01:41:18,410
Who is this moron?

3019
01:41:18,430 --> 01:41:20,790
She's obviously lives by herself.

3020
01:41:20,890 --> 01:41:24,930
She's a poor, hopeless single woman who listens

3021
01:41:24,930 --> 01:41:25,990
to NPR.

3022
01:41:26,770 --> 01:41:29,070
And she lives at home by herself.

3023
01:41:29,250 --> 01:41:30,890
Or an apartment, probably.

3024
01:41:30,990 --> 01:41:31,710
She's a renter.

3025
01:41:32,130 --> 01:41:33,070
A renter, yes.

3026
01:41:33,390 --> 01:41:35,630
And she has pedicures.

3027
01:41:37,110 --> 01:41:39,930
She's drinking crap to begin with.

3028
01:41:40,310 --> 01:41:42,650
I haven't had a headache from drinking for

3029
01:41:42,650 --> 01:41:45,370
20 years because I don't drink garbage.

3030
01:41:46,310 --> 01:41:48,450
And so the whole thing is like, okay,

3031
01:41:48,550 --> 01:41:48,910
fine.

3032
01:41:49,330 --> 01:41:52,870
Now, this last clip will take you right

3033
01:41:52,870 --> 01:41:53,390
to the break.

3034
01:41:53,390 --> 01:41:57,530
This is the sober two.

3035
01:41:58,050 --> 01:42:02,370
This is another selfish person.

3036
01:42:03,110 --> 01:42:05,010
Narcissistic or selfish or both?

3037
01:42:05,190 --> 01:42:06,850
I think it could be either one.

3038
01:42:07,190 --> 01:42:10,570
But it has a punchline that cracked me

3039
01:42:10,570 --> 01:42:10,810
up.

3040
01:42:10,930 --> 01:42:12,010
And I think it's just perfect.

3041
01:42:12,210 --> 01:42:13,310
Just go right into it.

3042
01:42:13,410 --> 01:42:15,270
We'll do our break right during this.

3043
01:42:15,370 --> 01:42:15,510
Go.

3044
01:42:15,510 --> 01:42:18,490
The last thing I would say is absolutely

3045
01:42:18,490 --> 01:42:21,970
don't volunteer to be a designated driver just

3046
01:42:21,970 --> 01:42:23,130
because you're not drinking.

3047
01:42:23,790 --> 01:42:26,390
People tend to immediately say, oh, you're doing

3048
01:42:26,390 --> 01:42:27,310
a no-alcohol challenge.

3049
01:42:27,430 --> 01:42:27,730
Great.

3050
01:42:27,830 --> 01:42:28,630
You can drive us.

3051
01:42:29,090 --> 01:42:31,230
And then you're stuck there until the end

3052
01:42:31,230 --> 01:42:32,690
with a whole bunch of people who might

3053
01:42:32,690 --> 01:42:33,230
get drunk.

3054
01:42:33,730 --> 01:42:35,370
And it's really annoying.

3055
01:42:39,590 --> 01:42:41,310
What a nice person.

3056
01:42:41,310 --> 01:42:43,310
And with that, I'd like to thank you

3057
01:42:43,310 --> 01:42:43,970
for your courage.

3058
01:42:44,110 --> 01:42:45,490
In the morning to you, the man who

3059
01:42:45,490 --> 01:42:47,990
put the Cs in charred carcasses.

3060
01:42:48,530 --> 01:42:49,710
Say hello to my friend on the other

3061
01:42:49,710 --> 01:42:51,390
end, the one and the only, Mr. John

3062
01:42:51,390 --> 01:42:51,790
C.

3063
01:42:51,930 --> 01:42:52,210
DeVore.

3064
01:42:55,690 --> 01:42:57,110
Well, in the morning to you, Mr. Adam

3065
01:42:57,110 --> 01:42:57,450
Clayton.

3066
01:42:57,490 --> 01:42:58,450
In the morning, ships and sea boats in

3067
01:42:58,450 --> 01:42:59,490
the ground, feet in the air, subs in

3068
01:42:59,490 --> 01:42:59,850
the water.

3069
01:43:00,710 --> 01:43:03,710
Designated drivers and the dames and knights out

3070
01:43:03,710 --> 01:43:03,850
there.

3071
01:43:03,950 --> 01:43:05,690
In the morning to the trolls in the

3072
01:43:05,690 --> 01:43:06,310
troll room.

3073
01:43:06,430 --> 01:43:07,190
Let me count to you.

3074
01:43:07,190 --> 01:43:10,650
Let me see.

3075
01:43:10,930 --> 01:43:13,170
2,123.

3076
01:43:14,530 --> 01:43:15,970
That's more than usual.

3077
01:43:17,010 --> 01:43:17,490
Correct?

3078
01:43:17,870 --> 01:43:18,290
Today's what?

3079
01:43:18,430 --> 01:43:18,690
Thursday?

3080
01:43:19,850 --> 01:43:20,050
Yeah.

3081
01:43:20,130 --> 01:43:21,310
Our average is 1,800.

3082
01:43:21,550 --> 01:43:21,730
Yeah.

3083
01:43:21,850 --> 01:43:25,530
This is because of the debacle in New

3084
01:43:25,530 --> 01:43:25,930
Orleans.

3085
01:43:26,150 --> 01:43:26,270
Yes.

3086
01:43:26,430 --> 01:43:28,090
The debacle in New Orleans.

3087
01:43:28,230 --> 01:43:28,630
That's right.

3088
01:43:28,770 --> 01:43:29,790
That's why people tune in.

3089
01:43:29,970 --> 01:43:30,570
They need to.

3090
01:43:30,570 --> 01:43:31,990
It's the damnedest thing to witness.

3091
01:43:32,210 --> 01:43:32,430
No.

3092
01:43:32,890 --> 01:43:34,370
And it's a service.

3093
01:43:35,150 --> 01:43:36,090
This is why we're here.

3094
01:43:36,090 --> 01:43:36,310
That's right.

3095
01:43:36,450 --> 01:43:38,010
Because of that early clip I played, we

3096
01:43:38,010 --> 01:43:39,090
lost a third of them.

3097
01:43:39,150 --> 01:43:39,490
I know.

3098
01:43:39,590 --> 01:43:41,010
It probably was 4,000.

3099
01:43:41,270 --> 01:43:42,130
It could have been.

3100
01:43:42,130 --> 01:43:43,730
You and your talk clip, man.

3101
01:43:43,770 --> 01:43:44,930
I can't believe you did that.

3102
01:43:45,830 --> 01:43:46,310
No.

3103
01:43:46,850 --> 01:43:48,750
We do provide this as a service.

3104
01:43:49,370 --> 01:43:52,450
We have zero chance of being hired by

3105
01:43:52,450 --> 01:43:57,670
YouTube to do it for multiple reasons, including

3106
01:43:57,670 --> 01:43:59,010
we're not good on video.

3107
01:43:59,550 --> 01:44:01,110
So it's just not going to happen.

3108
01:44:01,710 --> 01:44:04,790
So instead, we do this public service to

3109
01:44:04,790 --> 01:44:05,130
everybody.

3110
01:44:05,130 --> 01:44:08,630
There's no difficulties in getting this show.

3111
01:44:08,990 --> 01:44:10,630
And you can get it anywhere you get

3112
01:44:10,630 --> 01:44:11,210
your podcast.

3113
01:44:11,510 --> 01:44:13,830
It doesn't have to be on one platform

3114
01:44:13,830 --> 01:44:16,890
where you could become deplatformed if you say

3115
01:44:16,890 --> 01:44:19,550
something bad about the Democrat Party or Kamala

3116
01:44:19,550 --> 01:44:23,210
or Joe or Pfizer, for that matter.

3117
01:44:23,570 --> 01:44:25,670
Or if you're racist and make racist jokes

3118
01:44:25,670 --> 01:44:27,450
about Spock Joy.

3119
01:44:27,650 --> 01:44:28,570
You know, all of this stuff.

3120
01:44:28,990 --> 01:44:30,290
But no, we give it to you raw.

3121
01:44:30,390 --> 01:44:31,290
We are who we are.

3122
01:44:31,290 --> 01:44:35,470
And the trolls join us through multiple avenues,

3123
01:44:35,590 --> 01:44:38,370
trollroom.io or the modern podcast apps, which

3124
01:44:38,370 --> 01:44:40,490
ensure you won't get deplatformed if you use

3125
01:44:40,490 --> 01:44:40,970
one of those.

3126
01:44:41,290 --> 01:44:42,790
Go to podcastapps.com.

3127
01:44:43,050 --> 01:44:44,830
And we do it value for value.

3128
01:44:45,130 --> 01:44:46,030
No ads.

3129
01:44:46,250 --> 01:44:47,050
We don't have to break.

3130
01:44:47,250 --> 01:44:49,010
We don't have to – well, of course,

3131
01:44:49,110 --> 01:44:51,850
we don't make $400 million like Rush Limbaugh.

3132
01:44:52,390 --> 01:44:53,890
But we have a lot more fun.

3133
01:44:54,710 --> 01:44:56,370
We have complete ultimate freedom.

3134
01:44:56,370 --> 01:44:58,570
And I think that is always the appeal

3135
01:44:58,570 --> 01:45:00,170
why people come back to us because they

3136
01:45:00,170 --> 01:45:02,430
know that there is no corrupting force in

3137
01:45:02,430 --> 01:45:02,870
our life.

3138
01:45:03,450 --> 01:45:05,870
And we can't even be captured by the

3139
01:45:05,870 --> 01:45:08,150
audience, which is the biggest problem for podcasters.

3140
01:45:10,190 --> 01:45:11,050
They're going to quit.

3141
01:45:11,190 --> 01:45:12,790
I got some letters to read.

3142
01:45:12,870 --> 01:45:14,070
They're going to quit their Patreon.

3143
01:45:14,270 --> 01:45:14,650
What do you have?

3144
01:45:14,730 --> 01:45:15,950
Do you have letters to read?

3145
01:45:16,050 --> 01:45:16,850
Did someone complain?

3146
01:45:17,010 --> 01:45:18,170
I have some letters to read from the

3147
01:45:18,170 --> 01:45:19,430
audience grousing.

3148
01:45:19,810 --> 01:45:21,470
We'll put that in the second half of

3149
01:45:21,470 --> 01:45:21,650
the show.

3150
01:45:21,790 --> 01:45:22,310
Oh, okay.

3151
01:45:23,750 --> 01:45:25,850
So, one of the ways that people can

3152
01:45:25,850 --> 01:45:28,510
give back to us, we appreciate money, of

3153
01:45:28,510 --> 01:45:28,770
course.

3154
01:45:28,890 --> 01:45:30,110
We call that treasure.

3155
01:45:30,310 --> 01:45:32,310
We have three of these T's, time, talent,

3156
01:45:32,450 --> 01:45:32,830
and treasure.

3157
01:45:32,970 --> 01:45:34,750
One way is for people to support us

3158
01:45:34,750 --> 01:45:39,150
by doing things that remove cost.

3159
01:45:40,090 --> 01:45:41,950
That's probably the biggest one right there.

3160
01:45:42,090 --> 01:45:44,090
Why do H-1B visas exist?

3161
01:45:44,330 --> 01:45:46,350
Because they have expensive employees.

3162
01:45:46,690 --> 01:45:48,790
We need to keep the shareholders happy.

3163
01:45:48,870 --> 01:45:49,950
We need to keep everybody happy.

3164
01:45:50,050 --> 01:45:51,150
So, we need to cut costs.

3165
01:45:51,150 --> 01:45:53,150
The way we cut costs is by having

3166
01:45:53,150 --> 01:45:56,110
our listening audience, who we call producers, produce

3167
01:45:56,110 --> 01:45:56,950
for us.

3168
01:45:57,370 --> 01:46:01,010
And produce they do with insights, with knowledge,

3169
01:46:01,170 --> 01:46:03,130
with boots on the ground, with clips, with

3170
01:46:03,130 --> 01:46:04,790
pointers, with all kinds of things.

3171
01:46:06,230 --> 01:46:07,670
You help us.

3172
01:46:07,750 --> 01:46:09,930
You producers, you help us by setting up

3173
01:46:09,930 --> 01:46:14,510
websites, by organizing meetups, and by creating artwork

3174
01:46:14,510 --> 01:46:15,050
for us.

3175
01:46:15,170 --> 01:46:17,950
Artwork that makes our show always sparkle and

3176
01:46:17,950 --> 01:46:19,630
shine and interesting.

3177
01:46:19,630 --> 01:46:22,430
Because people are like, what does this image

3178
01:46:22,430 --> 01:46:22,730
mean?

3179
01:46:22,830 --> 01:46:24,430
What is going on with this thing?

3180
01:46:24,770 --> 01:46:26,770
Ah, it's also a reminder when it shows

3181
01:46:26,770 --> 01:46:27,410
up in a podcast.

3182
01:46:27,570 --> 01:46:29,050
Oh, look at this piece of art.

3183
01:46:29,310 --> 01:46:30,590
There must be the boys over at No

3184
01:46:30,590 --> 01:46:30,910
Agenda.

3185
01:46:31,290 --> 01:46:32,930
So, we want to thank the artist who

3186
01:46:32,930 --> 01:46:35,450
gave us the artwork for episode 1725.

3187
01:46:35,570 --> 01:46:38,310
That was our pre-New Year's celebration.

3188
01:46:39,050 --> 01:46:40,630
And it was the perfect cheesecake.

3189
01:46:40,990 --> 01:46:41,890
Nice smile.

3190
01:46:42,150 --> 01:46:43,850
Nice little fireworks in the background.

3191
01:46:45,170 --> 01:46:46,830
Nice font that was used.

3192
01:46:46,930 --> 01:46:48,130
And a champagne glass.

3193
01:46:48,130 --> 01:46:49,190
Can't beat the bubbly.

3194
01:46:49,570 --> 01:46:52,430
Darren O'Neill prompted his way into success

3195
01:46:52,430 --> 01:46:56,310
once again with that artwork for episode 725,

3196
01:46:56,550 --> 01:46:58,990
which we titled AI Artificial Indian.

3197
01:46:59,970 --> 01:47:01,450
Again, we're super racist.

3198
01:47:01,930 --> 01:47:04,970
I got some people saying, you guys, you

3199
01:47:04,970 --> 01:47:06,670
call Indians racist.

3200
01:47:07,790 --> 01:47:08,890
You're racist.

3201
01:47:09,930 --> 01:47:11,210
Do you get any of that?

3202
01:47:11,350 --> 01:47:11,570
Oh, yeah.

3203
01:47:11,590 --> 01:47:14,690
Because we're saying that the Indians and the

3204
01:47:14,690 --> 01:47:15,790
tech companies, they're racist.

3205
01:47:16,170 --> 01:47:17,010
They are.

3206
01:47:17,010 --> 01:47:17,670
I know.

3207
01:47:17,750 --> 01:47:19,350
But then we're racist all of a sudden

3208
01:47:19,350 --> 01:47:19,950
for saying that.

3209
01:47:20,110 --> 01:47:21,130
Because we point this out.

3210
01:47:21,210 --> 01:47:22,230
Yes, we're racist.

3211
01:47:23,010 --> 01:47:23,710
I know.

3212
01:47:24,290 --> 01:47:24,750
Exactly.

3213
01:47:25,710 --> 01:47:26,470
We're racist.

3214
01:47:28,470 --> 01:47:31,110
Noagendaartgenerator.com is where anybody can upload.

3215
01:47:31,230 --> 01:47:32,910
You can also follow along during the live

3216
01:47:32,910 --> 01:47:34,830
show, see what people are uploading.

3217
01:47:35,570 --> 01:47:36,510
It's a lot of fun.

3218
01:47:36,670 --> 01:47:37,530
It's competitive.

3219
01:47:38,010 --> 01:47:39,690
And we like to discuss the pieces of

3220
01:47:39,690 --> 01:47:41,050
art that we chose and the ones that

3221
01:47:41,050 --> 01:47:41,730
we didn't choose.

3222
01:47:42,370 --> 01:47:43,930
And we'll take a look at it right

3223
01:47:43,930 --> 01:47:44,410
now.

3224
01:47:44,410 --> 01:47:48,370
This was my last show in Europe.

3225
01:47:50,670 --> 01:47:53,330
So we had a couple of European-themed

3226
01:47:53,330 --> 01:47:53,870
pieces.

3227
01:47:54,910 --> 01:47:57,150
I did like the Melania holding up the

3228
01:47:57,150 --> 01:47:59,410
deport Elon sign.

3229
01:48:00,070 --> 01:48:00,830
That was cool.

3230
01:48:02,150 --> 01:48:03,990
But then we had the – That wasn't

3231
01:48:03,990 --> 01:48:05,270
going to happen because we went with a

3232
01:48:05,270 --> 01:48:05,770
New Year's theme.

3233
01:48:05,770 --> 01:48:06,850
Yeah, we went with a New Year's theme.

3234
01:48:07,050 --> 01:48:08,350
And so there were a number of –

3235
01:48:08,350 --> 01:48:11,150
Nestworks uploaded a number of champagne bottles, which

3236
01:48:11,150 --> 01:48:12,430
– Yeah, those were good.

3237
01:48:12,490 --> 01:48:13,150
They were competitive.

3238
01:48:13,150 --> 01:48:14,550
They were competitive, yes.

3239
01:48:15,730 --> 01:48:19,890
But not quite as good as Darren's.

3240
01:48:20,990 --> 01:48:22,330
Let me see what – Well, mixing in

3241
01:48:22,330 --> 01:48:23,850
the cheesecake probably didn't hurt.

3242
01:48:23,950 --> 01:48:24,530
It didn't hurt.

3243
01:48:24,710 --> 01:48:25,530
It didn't hurt at all.

3244
01:48:25,670 --> 01:48:25,990
Let me see.

3245
01:48:26,290 --> 01:48:27,730
Was there anything else we were considering?

3246
01:48:28,610 --> 01:48:30,550
No, but I did use the one from

3247
01:48:30,550 --> 01:48:34,030
– I did use the Nestworks drone show

3248
01:48:34,030 --> 01:48:36,990
for the newsletter, which is the Happy New

3249
01:48:36,990 --> 01:48:39,770
Year Curry Dvorak, and it had all the

3250
01:48:39,770 --> 01:48:40,870
drones flying around.

3251
01:48:40,970 --> 01:48:41,470
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

3252
01:48:41,850 --> 01:48:42,570
That was okay.

3253
01:48:42,570 --> 01:48:43,610
It was okay.

3254
01:48:43,810 --> 01:48:44,270
It was okay.

3255
01:48:46,150 --> 01:48:48,130
NoahGenArtGenerator.com, that's where you can check them

3256
01:48:48,130 --> 01:48:48,490
all out.

3257
01:48:48,530 --> 01:48:49,770
And, of course, if you're using a modern

3258
01:48:49,770 --> 01:48:52,870
podcast app, we have great chapters, which Dreb

3259
01:48:52,870 --> 01:48:54,670
Scott will do for us once again in

3260
01:48:54,670 --> 01:48:55,510
this brand-new year.

3261
01:48:55,650 --> 01:48:57,510
And he uses many of the pieces of

3262
01:48:57,510 --> 01:49:00,110
art that are not chosen, so you can

3263
01:49:00,110 --> 01:49:01,390
always enjoy them there as well.

3264
01:49:01,450 --> 01:49:02,810
If you use it in the car, like

3265
01:49:02,810 --> 01:49:06,070
CarPlay or Android Auto, it'll switch – with

3266
01:49:06,070 --> 01:49:08,050
each chapter, it'll switch on your dashboard, which

3267
01:49:08,050 --> 01:49:10,290
is interesting and distracting.

3268
01:49:10,910 --> 01:49:11,430
Yes.

3269
01:49:11,870 --> 01:49:13,030
Don't blame us.

3270
01:49:13,250 --> 01:49:14,170
No, please don't.

3271
01:49:14,450 --> 01:49:16,990
Now let's thank people who supported us.

3272
01:49:17,030 --> 01:49:19,470
$50 and above will mention everybody and the

3273
01:49:19,470 --> 01:49:20,450
amount that they gave us.

3274
01:49:20,810 --> 01:49:22,710
We'd like to stop here for our executive

3275
01:49:22,710 --> 01:49:25,530
and associate executive producers, because just like Hollywood,

3276
01:49:25,730 --> 01:49:27,490
people who pony up the money, they get

3277
01:49:27,490 --> 01:49:28,570
the credit early on.

3278
01:49:28,990 --> 01:49:31,430
In this case, we have a dual mandate.

3279
01:49:31,670 --> 01:49:34,630
If you donate $200 or above, we give

3280
01:49:34,630 --> 01:49:37,150
you a forever credit of associate executive producer

3281
01:49:37,150 --> 01:49:39,210
for this episode, which is an official credit.

3282
01:49:39,310 --> 01:49:40,130
It can be used anywhere.

3283
01:49:40,430 --> 01:49:41,930
Go look at imdb.com.

3284
01:49:42,010 --> 01:49:44,190
You'll see over 1,000, and that's right

3285
01:49:44,190 --> 01:49:45,650
up there with anyone else who has Hollywood

3286
01:49:45,650 --> 01:49:46,070
credits.

3287
01:49:46,430 --> 01:49:47,350
And we'll read your note.

3288
01:49:47,470 --> 01:49:48,530
$300 – yes?

3289
01:49:49,170 --> 01:49:50,130
I was just going to say I'm going

3290
01:49:50,130 --> 01:49:50,990
to start off today.

3291
01:49:52,290 --> 01:49:56,630
$300 or above, and you get an executive

3292
01:49:56,630 --> 01:49:59,810
producer credit, and we also read your note.

3293
01:49:59,850 --> 01:50:01,370
And we're going to thank those executive and

3294
01:50:01,370 --> 01:50:02,810
associate executive producers now.

3295
01:50:02,870 --> 01:50:04,330
And I just heard John is starting us

3296
01:50:04,330 --> 01:50:04,610
off.

3297
01:50:05,110 --> 01:50:05,790
Yes, I am.

3298
01:50:05,790 --> 01:50:08,470
And you'll see why immediately.

3299
01:50:08,950 --> 01:50:11,450
This came from Isobel Pearson.

3300
01:50:11,790 --> 01:50:12,550
I think it's Isobel.

3301
01:50:13,950 --> 01:50:14,510
Isobel.

3302
01:50:14,790 --> 01:50:15,350
Isobel.

3303
01:50:15,890 --> 01:50:16,890
It's not Isobel?

3304
01:50:17,050 --> 01:50:19,750
No, it's like Isabel, only Isobel.

3305
01:50:20,550 --> 01:50:21,410
It's foreign.

3306
01:50:21,690 --> 01:50:21,990
It's foreign.

3307
01:50:22,170 --> 01:50:22,670
It's huge.

3308
01:50:23,810 --> 01:50:26,610
This came in through Weiss, we think.

3309
01:50:26,890 --> 01:50:30,210
It may not actually go through, but it's

3310
01:50:30,210 --> 01:50:32,410
$2,024, which is nice.

3311
01:50:34,010 --> 01:50:36,730
And I guess signing off for 2024.

3312
01:50:37,010 --> 01:50:37,790
Yes, that's very nice.

3313
01:50:37,890 --> 01:50:38,870
I know Isobel.

3314
01:50:39,090 --> 01:50:40,530
I have emailed with Isobel.

3315
01:50:41,070 --> 01:50:41,770
Oh, good.

3316
01:50:42,130 --> 01:50:45,690
ITM gentlemen, 2024 Year of the Dragon featured

3317
01:50:45,690 --> 01:50:48,370
my escape from the ever-oppressive UK to

3318
01:50:48,370 --> 01:50:49,410
south of France.

3319
01:50:49,950 --> 01:50:52,170
Well, I would say that's an upgrade.

3320
01:50:52,390 --> 01:50:53,190
Yeah, no kidding.

3321
01:50:53,770 --> 01:50:56,290
I abandoned my TV set, and with no

3322
01:50:56,290 --> 01:50:59,410
agenda in my ear, I positively immersed myself

3323
01:50:59,410 --> 01:51:00,170
in the lifestyle.

3324
01:51:00,170 --> 01:51:07,750
I'm excitedly developing a Garder's based in Marciac

3325
01:51:07,750 --> 01:51:10,710
in the heart of Gascony, which is to

3326
01:51:10,710 --> 01:51:13,730
be a boutique hotel and luxury venue.

3327
01:51:14,150 --> 01:51:16,250
Well, I know where we're going to stay.

3328
01:51:16,730 --> 01:51:17,410
I have pictures.

3329
01:51:17,570 --> 01:51:18,470
I've seen pictures.

3330
01:51:18,790 --> 01:51:21,370
And there's something extra that she's doing there,

3331
01:51:21,390 --> 01:51:23,030
which will make it even more attractive for

3332
01:51:23,030 --> 01:51:23,270
us.

3333
01:51:23,270 --> 01:51:25,470
I am proud to say that Too Many

3334
01:51:25,470 --> 01:51:30,150
Eggs recipe will feature as a cornerstone in

3335
01:51:30,150 --> 01:51:32,470
our farm as a table dining experience.

3336
01:51:32,910 --> 01:51:35,130
I'm hoping to combine the fine wines and

3337
01:51:35,130 --> 01:51:36,390
Armagnac with...

3338
01:51:36,390 --> 01:51:37,350
It's farm to table.

3339
01:51:38,730 --> 01:51:40,690
Farm to, oh, what did I say?

3340
01:51:41,030 --> 01:51:42,210
Farms is table.

3341
01:51:42,350 --> 01:51:43,830
I don't know what you said, but it's

3342
01:51:43,830 --> 01:51:44,330
farm to table.

3343
01:51:44,330 --> 01:51:45,630
You have to know what I said.

3344
01:51:45,710 --> 01:51:46,130
It's marketing.

3345
01:51:46,690 --> 01:51:47,210
I'm complaining.

3346
01:51:47,570 --> 01:51:49,430
Farm to table dining experience.

3347
01:51:49,490 --> 01:51:50,310
Yes, farm to table.

3348
01:51:50,310 --> 01:51:52,150
Well, yeah, in France, you can do farm

3349
01:51:52,150 --> 01:51:53,670
to table all over the place.

3350
01:51:54,590 --> 01:51:57,610
I'm hoping to combine fine wines and Armagnac

3351
01:51:57,610 --> 01:52:00,710
with wild...

3352
01:52:04,090 --> 01:52:05,010
Sanglier what?

3353
01:52:05,490 --> 01:52:06,810
That roam on the land.

3354
01:52:06,890 --> 01:52:07,790
What is a sanglier?

3355
01:52:08,030 --> 01:52:09,050
It's like a deer.

3356
01:52:10,170 --> 01:52:10,410
Sure?

3357
01:52:10,690 --> 01:52:12,010
No, but it sounds like it.

3358
01:52:12,030 --> 01:52:14,630
With regional delicacies to produce gastronomic excellence.

3359
01:52:15,050 --> 01:52:16,670
I hope you approve, well, we'll approve by

3360
01:52:16,670 --> 01:52:17,550
checking it out.

3361
01:52:17,830 --> 01:52:18,230
Yes.

3362
01:52:18,230 --> 01:52:21,410
In the interest of brevity, which is already

3363
01:52:21,410 --> 01:52:26,870
past due, I have consulted Adam separately for

3364
01:52:26,870 --> 01:52:30,670
his advice regarding my helipad development.

3365
01:52:31,510 --> 01:52:32,170
Oh, brother.

3366
01:52:32,250 --> 01:52:33,230
She's putting in a heli, but she has

3367
01:52:33,230 --> 01:52:33,610
approval.

3368
01:52:33,810 --> 01:52:34,430
She already has approval.

3369
01:52:34,430 --> 01:52:35,050
Good for her.

3370
01:52:35,250 --> 01:52:36,130
I think that's great.

3371
01:52:36,170 --> 01:52:36,870
It's a great idea.

3372
01:52:36,970 --> 01:52:38,530
You fly right in with a helicopter.

3373
01:52:38,910 --> 01:52:39,630
Are you kidding me?

3374
01:52:40,330 --> 01:52:42,390
So if you are going to go there,

3375
01:52:42,430 --> 01:52:44,730
15% off for producers of No Agenda.

3376
01:52:44,730 --> 01:52:46,770
The quote, ITM 15, when you visit the

3377
01:52:46,770 --> 01:52:53,330
website and follow the journey, www.puregarderes.com.

3378
01:52:53,470 --> 01:52:55,590
That's G-A-R-D-E-R-E

3379
01:52:55,590 --> 01:52:55,970
-S.

3380
01:52:56,150 --> 01:52:58,310
Pure P-U-R-E-G-A-R

-D-E-R-E-S.com.

3382
01:53:00,630 --> 01:53:01,070
Check it out.

3383
01:53:01,550 --> 01:53:02,730
It's fantastic.

3384
01:53:03,430 --> 01:53:04,770
So how did she...

3385
01:53:04,770 --> 01:53:05,970
You said she paid with WISE?

3386
01:53:07,410 --> 01:53:09,710
Yes, this came through as a WISE donation,

3387
01:53:09,710 --> 01:53:13,170
and there's issues with WISE in our bank

3388
01:53:13,170 --> 01:53:15,790
because of the fee structure.

3389
01:53:15,970 --> 01:53:16,290
Because of our bank.

3390
01:53:16,310 --> 01:53:19,890
No, we have gotten plenty of WISE donations,

3391
01:53:20,290 --> 01:53:22,390
but the way they always work is if

3392
01:53:22,390 --> 01:53:26,890
it's set up at the sending bank, and

3393
01:53:26,890 --> 01:53:28,610
then it goes through ACH or some other

3394
01:53:28,610 --> 01:53:30,810
technology gets through.

3395
01:53:30,890 --> 01:53:32,710
But anyway, so I want to thank her

3396
01:53:32,710 --> 01:53:33,450
for this donation.

3397
01:53:33,630 --> 01:53:34,810
It'll get straightened out.

3398
01:53:34,830 --> 01:53:35,590
I'm not worried about it.

3399
01:53:36,350 --> 01:53:37,650
Well, thank you very much, Isabel.

3400
01:53:37,650 --> 01:53:40,050
And I look forward to landing with my

3401
01:53:40,050 --> 01:53:42,610
chopper on your property with your farm-to

3402
01:53:42,610 --> 01:53:42,950
-table.

3403
01:53:43,250 --> 01:53:44,950
I'm excited about that, and I can't wait

3404
01:53:44,950 --> 01:53:47,530
for those fancy French deer, that venison.

3405
01:53:48,270 --> 01:53:52,050
Up next, with $620 for the show, Alexander

3406
01:53:52,050 --> 01:53:55,070
Nelson says, Happy New Year from Finland, though

3407
01:53:55,070 --> 01:53:56,590
I reside in FEMA Region No.

3408
01:53:56,670 --> 01:53:56,970
9.

3409
01:53:57,390 --> 01:53:58,990
I've been on a $4-a-week plan

3410
01:53:58,990 --> 01:53:59,650
for two years.

3411
01:53:59,790 --> 01:54:01,370
This is one of those sustaining donations.

3412
01:54:01,730 --> 01:54:04,030
And this lump donation should bump me to

3413
01:54:04,030 --> 01:54:04,430
knighthood.

3414
01:54:04,430 --> 01:54:06,670
Big thanks to Dame Girl Kylie.

3415
01:54:07,050 --> 01:54:08,590
What was the donation amount?

3416
01:54:09,370 --> 01:54:09,890
$620.

3417
01:54:11,150 --> 01:54:14,150
Big thanks to Dame Girl Kyle, not Kylie,

3418
01:54:14,450 --> 01:54:16,290
and Sir Jackie Green for hitting me in

3419
01:54:16,290 --> 01:54:16,650
the mouth.

3420
01:54:17,010 --> 01:54:18,630
Jackie Green doing his work.

3421
01:54:19,390 --> 01:54:21,430
I'm reaching out to No Agenda Nation, hoping

3422
01:54:21,430 --> 01:54:24,030
someone might have legal advice or resources to

3423
01:54:24,030 --> 01:54:26,750
help me bring my wife, Yenna, back to

3424
01:54:26,750 --> 01:54:28,750
the U.S. Yenna and I have been

3425
01:54:28,750 --> 01:54:30,650
together eight years and married for the last

3426
01:54:30,650 --> 01:54:30,930
four.

3427
01:54:30,930 --> 01:54:34,790
Unfortunately, her refusal of the experimental COVID injection

3428
01:54:34,790 --> 01:54:37,350
and all other jabs still required by the

3429
01:54:37,350 --> 01:54:40,010
CDC as a condition of legal immigration has

3430
01:54:40,010 --> 01:54:43,170
led to years of heartbreak and involuntary separation

3431
01:54:43,170 --> 01:54:43,970
from each other.

3432
01:54:44,370 --> 01:54:45,630
And he has a summary of the story,

3433
01:54:45,710 --> 01:54:46,490
which I will summarize.

3434
01:54:47,230 --> 01:54:48,310
I'm a U.S. citizen.

3435
01:54:48,450 --> 01:54:50,210
Yenna and I met in 2017 while she

3436
01:54:50,210 --> 01:54:52,130
was a foreign grad student from Finland at

3437
01:54:52,130 --> 01:54:52,730
UC Davis.

3438
01:54:53,110 --> 01:54:54,590
I was at a nearby community college.

3439
01:54:54,690 --> 01:54:56,410
We fell in love and built a life

3440
01:54:56,410 --> 01:54:58,870
together, with me eventually transferring to Stanford, where

3441
01:54:58,870 --> 01:55:01,630
I earned degrees in chemistry and environmental science.

3442
01:55:02,190 --> 01:55:04,930
Yenna is an incredibly talented pattern designer, has

3443
01:55:04,930 --> 01:55:07,210
launched her own business with her creations licensed

3444
01:55:07,210 --> 01:55:09,510
and featured in stores and commercial spaces.

3445
01:55:10,270 --> 01:55:15,230
See below, Luavolo, luavoloflow.com.

3446
01:55:15,770 --> 01:55:17,290
She left the U.S. in spring of

3447
01:55:17,290 --> 01:55:20,030
2020 when talk of border closures began to

3448
01:55:20,030 --> 01:55:22,630
avoid accidentally overstaying the extension on her student

3449
01:55:22,630 --> 01:55:22,970
visa.

3450
01:55:23,430 --> 01:55:25,290
The pain of separation with no end in

3451
01:55:25,290 --> 01:55:27,110
sight, however, led me to fly to Finland

3452
01:55:27,110 --> 01:55:29,270
on a near-empty jetliner so we could

3453
01:55:29,270 --> 01:55:31,630
be married in her hometown that summer.

3454
01:55:32,970 --> 01:55:36,130
Okay, so I understand what's going on here.

3455
01:55:36,190 --> 01:55:42,270
We applied for the U.S. spouse visa

3456
01:55:42,270 --> 01:55:44,430
and became approved as legit in nine months.

3457
01:55:44,470 --> 01:55:47,030
However, the final step of the immigrant visa

3458
01:55:47,030 --> 01:55:50,110
process involves an exam of medical history, including

3459
01:55:50,110 --> 01:55:51,410
vaccine records.

3460
01:55:51,790 --> 01:55:53,970
She openly refused all jabs and was thus

3461
01:55:53,970 --> 01:55:55,110
deemed inadmissible.

3462
01:55:55,110 --> 01:55:57,810
Okay, so this is true.

3463
01:55:58,570 --> 01:56:00,350
Now, there's two ways to get into the

3464
01:56:00,350 --> 01:56:02,770
United States, legally and illegally.

3465
01:56:03,190 --> 01:56:05,510
If you are going illegally, you just cross

3466
01:56:05,510 --> 01:56:07,110
the border, eagle pass, and they will not

3467
01:56:07,110 --> 01:56:08,970
ask you about your injection, certainly not the

3468
01:56:08,970 --> 01:56:09,690
COVID vaccine.

3469
01:56:09,750 --> 01:56:13,630
But you, law-abiding citizen, you fool, his

3470
01:56:13,630 --> 01:56:15,730
wife is now, they've now been apart for

3471
01:56:15,730 --> 01:56:17,870
a long time, even though they're married.

3472
01:56:17,910 --> 01:56:19,490
He's been flying over back and forth.

3473
01:56:19,770 --> 01:56:21,550
He says, I need help.

3474
01:56:21,590 --> 01:56:24,230
Does anyone in no agenda nation have help?

3475
01:56:24,230 --> 01:56:27,790
And I would like to say that I

3476
01:56:27,790 --> 01:56:30,090
have a great immigration lawyer for you.

3477
01:56:30,210 --> 01:56:32,110
So email me, adammccurry.com.

3478
01:56:32,190 --> 01:56:33,130
I will set you up.

3479
01:56:33,510 --> 01:56:35,470
And if anyone can do it, this guy

3480
01:56:35,470 --> 01:56:36,030
can do it.

3481
01:56:36,950 --> 01:56:38,610
And I think there may be ways to

3482
01:56:38,610 --> 01:56:38,950
do it.

3483
01:56:39,890 --> 01:56:41,090
But this is a sad story.

3484
01:56:41,850 --> 01:56:43,510
He would like to be known as Sir

3485
01:56:43,510 --> 01:56:45,130
Sisu, if available.

3486
01:56:45,330 --> 01:56:46,830
Otherwise, Sir Saburo.

3487
01:56:47,070 --> 01:56:48,730
I think Sir Sisu is available.

3488
01:56:49,190 --> 01:56:51,290
And we will be knighting him later on

3489
01:56:51,290 --> 01:56:51,530
today.

3490
01:56:51,670 --> 01:56:53,010
Thank you for the heartbreaking note.

3491
01:56:53,010 --> 01:56:54,530
And, again, email me.

3492
01:56:54,670 --> 01:56:56,470
I will set you up with my immigration

3493
01:56:56,470 --> 01:56:56,810
lawyer.

3494
01:56:59,700 --> 01:57:01,660
And if anybody else has any ideas, too.

3495
01:57:01,820 --> 01:57:03,000
Well, this is the guy.

3496
01:57:03,680 --> 01:57:03,920
Okay.

3497
01:57:04,100 --> 01:57:05,120
I've done this a couple of times.

3498
01:57:05,120 --> 01:57:07,620
So there's also the, well, yeah.

3499
01:57:09,660 --> 01:57:11,300
I think, by the way, if you took

3500
01:57:11,300 --> 01:57:12,500
the eagle pass route.

3501
01:57:12,640 --> 01:57:13,600
It's probably easier and cheaper.

3502
01:57:13,600 --> 01:57:15,300
As you came across, you get a cell

3503
01:57:15,300 --> 01:57:17,820
phone, a $5,000 credit card.

3504
01:57:18,280 --> 01:57:19,260
What am I thinking?

3505
01:57:20,580 --> 01:57:21,000
Why pay $5,000?

3506
01:57:21,000 --> 01:57:22,940
You get the credit card, the cell phone.

3507
01:57:23,940 --> 01:57:24,960
It's still available.

3508
01:57:25,660 --> 01:57:26,660
You still got some time.

3509
01:57:26,800 --> 01:57:27,200
Before January 20th.

3510
01:57:27,200 --> 01:57:29,340
And you might actually get a free ride

3511
01:57:29,340 --> 01:57:30,960
to where your destination.

3512
01:57:31,440 --> 01:57:32,000
It's a bus.

3513
01:57:32,200 --> 01:57:33,680
But maybe you get flown.

3514
01:57:33,760 --> 01:57:34,280
You never know.

3515
01:57:34,480 --> 01:57:35,220
You can get flown.

3516
01:57:35,360 --> 01:57:35,840
It happens.

3517
01:57:37,040 --> 01:57:38,580
Jonathan Glover's next on the list.

3518
01:57:38,640 --> 01:57:39,980
He's in Long Beach, California.

3519
01:57:40,160 --> 01:57:44,160
He came in with $376.24. Greetings, gents.

3520
01:57:44,780 --> 01:57:48,620
I'm in major need of de-douching.

3521
01:57:50,340 --> 01:57:51,820
You've been de-douched.

3522
01:57:52,920 --> 01:57:54,940
Started listening after the first Rogan appearance by

3523
01:57:54,940 --> 01:57:55,220
Adam.

3524
01:57:55,340 --> 01:57:55,900
Loved the show.

3525
01:57:56,000 --> 01:57:57,780
Finally had to give something back.

3526
01:57:57,900 --> 01:58:02,460
Please accept my classic caliber donation of $357,

3527
01:58:02,740 --> 01:58:04,780
as in 357 magnum.

3528
01:58:05,200 --> 01:58:07,480
Dot 38, as in 38.

3529
01:58:07,680 --> 01:58:08,020
Nice.

3530
01:58:08,120 --> 01:58:08,660
So he added fees.

3531
01:58:08,660 --> 01:58:09,340
I like that one.

3532
01:58:09,440 --> 01:58:10,080
That's a good one.

3533
01:58:10,460 --> 01:58:12,840
$357.38. Classic caliber donation.

3534
01:58:13,540 --> 01:58:15,200
$357.38. Very nice.

3535
01:58:17,100 --> 01:58:20,460
Matthew Ross is next in Indian Trail, North

3536
01:58:20,460 --> 01:58:21,040
Carolina.

3537
01:58:21,460 --> 01:58:26,120
And he sends in $351.64. Now, I

3538
01:58:26,120 --> 01:58:29,360
just wish we had the original.

3539
01:58:29,540 --> 01:58:31,440
The numerology gets thrown off.

3540
01:58:31,620 --> 01:58:33,020
I have a problem with this on the

3541
01:58:33,020 --> 01:58:33,520
spreadsheets.

3542
01:58:33,700 --> 01:58:35,000
I wish we could change this.

3543
01:58:35,680 --> 01:58:37,500
Because people are doing numbers, and sometimes they

3544
01:58:37,500 --> 01:58:39,400
don't mention that it includes fees, and then

3545
01:58:39,400 --> 01:58:40,460
we get screwed.

3546
01:58:40,920 --> 01:58:41,120
Anyway.

3547
01:58:41,940 --> 01:58:43,300
Well, it's just the way it is.

3548
01:58:44,100 --> 01:58:46,320
Anyway, he says, I was a little drunk

3549
01:58:46,320 --> 01:58:48,040
just before the ball dropped in Times Square

3550
01:58:48,040 --> 01:58:48,540
this year.

3551
01:58:48,680 --> 01:58:50,180
I was at a comedy show of John

3552
01:58:50,180 --> 01:58:52,820
Reap's in Charlotte, North Carolina, with my new

3553
01:58:52,820 --> 01:58:53,780
girlfriend Johanna.

3554
01:58:54,060 --> 01:58:54,440
Johanna.

3555
01:58:55,160 --> 01:58:56,060
Yes, he sent a picture.

3556
01:58:56,160 --> 01:58:56,700
I saw it.

3557
01:58:57,040 --> 01:58:59,720
In his act, he mentioned Charlotte Panther's mascot,

3558
01:58:59,940 --> 01:59:00,840
Sir Purr.

3559
01:59:01,340 --> 01:59:03,220
Well, that was my final reminder of the

3560
01:59:03,220 --> 01:59:04,960
day to donate, and I got it just

3561
01:59:04,960 --> 01:59:07,460
under the wire, 11.45 p.m. Eastern

3562
01:59:07,460 --> 01:59:07,840
time.

3563
01:59:08,140 --> 01:59:09,380
Hashtag business expense.

3564
01:59:09,840 --> 01:59:11,160
Other things happened today.

3565
01:59:11,160 --> 01:59:13,340
Totally random things that I felt were signs

3566
01:59:13,340 --> 01:59:13,820
as well.

3567
01:59:14,240 --> 01:59:17,420
From hearing Alan Stone's unreleased song, Reasons Why,

3568
01:59:17,660 --> 01:59:21,240
to 333 on my trip meter when pumping

3569
01:59:21,240 --> 01:59:22,240
gas at Costco.

3570
01:59:22,760 --> 01:59:24,280
Hashtag coincidence, I think not.

3571
01:59:24,380 --> 01:59:24,660
Jingle.

3572
01:59:25,040 --> 01:59:27,300
Sunday morning service into doublespeak of the week.

3573
01:59:27,380 --> 01:59:28,260
Please knight me, sir.

3574
01:59:28,320 --> 01:59:28,900
Clip of the day.

3575
01:59:29,220 --> 01:59:31,140
Thank you again for being the constant voices

3576
01:59:31,140 --> 01:59:33,780
grounding me when my late wife of 22

3577
01:59:33,780 --> 01:59:35,260
years passed in 2018.

3578
01:59:35,660 --> 01:59:37,900
I'm finally moving on, and my three kids

3579
01:59:37,900 --> 01:59:38,580
are doing better.

3580
01:59:38,680 --> 01:59:39,620
Hashtag IPM.

3581
01:59:39,620 --> 01:59:40,980
I'm happy to hear that, brother.

3582
01:59:41,260 --> 01:59:42,280
That's good news.

3583
01:59:42,380 --> 01:59:43,600
Good news for 2025.

3584
01:59:44,020 --> 01:59:48,000
My children, it's a Sunday morning service.

3585
01:59:48,380 --> 01:59:49,560
Tell us it's a no agenda.

3586
01:59:50,320 --> 01:59:51,600
We're going to get some Adam Curry.

3587
01:59:52,280 --> 01:59:53,860
We're going to get a little Josh.

3588
01:59:56,100 --> 01:59:57,180
Lord, help us all.

3589
01:59:57,420 --> 02:00:00,200
It's the double doublespeak of the week.

3590
02:00:00,400 --> 02:00:02,420
The double doublespeak of the week.

3591
02:00:02,600 --> 02:00:04,080
Hadn't heard that one in a long time.

3592
02:00:05,960 --> 02:00:10,620
Justine Cowdery Palmer in Bozeman, Montana.

3593
02:00:10,800 --> 02:00:11,580
Big sky country.

3594
02:00:11,940 --> 02:00:13,020
Big, big 350 bucks.

3595
02:00:13,100 --> 02:00:15,400
She says nothing in so far as a

3596
02:00:15,400 --> 02:00:15,940
note's concerned.

3597
02:00:16,040 --> 02:00:17,620
So she'll get a double up karma for

3598
02:00:17,620 --> 02:00:17,960
today.

3599
02:00:18,960 --> 02:00:22,480
You've got karma.

3600
02:00:24,020 --> 02:00:26,520
And we've got Sir Tyler checking in from

3601
02:00:26,520 --> 02:00:27,420
Anchorage, Alaska.

3602
02:00:27,700 --> 02:00:28,680
343 75.

3603
02:00:29,060 --> 02:00:30,420
Happy New Year to get my nation from

3604
02:00:30,420 --> 02:00:32,480
Tyler at Tyler systems dot com.

3605
02:00:32,480 --> 02:00:35,000
Where before we panic about being dominated by

3606
02:00:35,000 --> 02:00:38,540
Sam Altman's foe, AGI, we first ask it

3607
02:00:38,540 --> 02:00:39,080
to print.

3608
02:00:40,000 --> 02:00:41,060
So far, no dice.

3609
02:00:41,340 --> 02:00:42,080
How disappointing.

3610
02:00:42,800 --> 02:00:44,360
Until we can offer our fellow producer.

3611
02:00:44,360 --> 02:00:46,140
Until then, we can offer our fellow producers

3612
02:00:46,140 --> 02:00:49,160
a prototype T1 with our public-private Skynet

3613
02:00:49,160 --> 02:00:50,240
consortium partners.

3614
02:00:50,700 --> 02:00:52,600
You'll find us toiling away at working on

3615
02:00:52,600 --> 02:00:55,060
using large language models to help automate a

3616
02:00:55,060 --> 02:00:58,580
lot of the big, boring bureaucratic processes that

3617
02:00:58,580 --> 02:01:00,940
still dominate and operate much of our lives,

3618
02:01:01,040 --> 02:01:02,140
both at work and at home.

3619
02:01:02,140 --> 02:01:05,060
I believe trust is more monetizable now than

3620
02:01:05,060 --> 02:01:07,640
ever, and there are enough B2B leaders receptive

3621
02:01:07,640 --> 02:01:10,100
enough to value for value and shareware.

3622
02:01:10,540 --> 02:01:12,400
The model that I hope it's possible to

3623
02:01:12,400 --> 02:01:13,920
build a business off of it.

3624
02:01:14,180 --> 02:01:16,380
This has been reassuring through an intense period

3625
02:01:16,380 --> 02:01:18,480
of boots-on-the-ground research, i.e.

3626
02:01:18,500 --> 02:01:19,100
pitch meetings.

3627
02:01:19,580 --> 02:01:21,320
Shoot for the big leagues, but end up

3628
02:01:21,320 --> 02:01:22,320
as win-rar.

3629
02:01:23,900 --> 02:01:25,180
What's wrong with that?

3630
02:01:25,560 --> 02:01:27,960
Yours truly, Tyler at Tyler systems dot com.

3631
02:01:28,040 --> 02:01:29,020
Sir Tyler in Alaska.

3632
02:01:29,020 --> 02:01:31,360
P.S. John, the Northern Lights was out

3633
02:01:31,360 --> 02:01:32,940
around New Year's, and a friend of mine

3634
02:01:32,940 --> 02:01:35,680
took this picture of his own plane near

3635
02:01:35,680 --> 02:01:37,040
Lake Hood in Anchorage.

3636
02:01:37,280 --> 02:01:37,680
Enjoy.

3637
02:01:38,000 --> 02:01:39,360
When will you be joining us?

3638
02:01:39,940 --> 02:01:40,540
He says.

3639
02:01:41,140 --> 02:01:42,200
Yeah, I'd love to go up there and

3640
02:01:42,200 --> 02:01:43,980
watch the Northern Lights on the right day.

3641
02:01:44,080 --> 02:01:46,100
So, Tyler systems dot com.

3642
02:01:46,180 --> 02:01:48,400
Apparently, they're doing a value for value proposition.

3643
02:01:48,900 --> 02:01:50,580
I'm interested to see how that goes.

3644
02:01:50,840 --> 02:01:52,440
Yeah, that would be interesting to see how

3645
02:01:52,440 --> 02:01:52,820
it goes.

3646
02:01:52,960 --> 02:01:53,640
Thank you, brother.

3647
02:01:53,640 --> 02:01:58,020
Meanwhile, Jason Schneider in Roseland, New Jersey comes

3648
02:01:58,020 --> 02:01:59,720
in with three thirty three thirty three.

3649
02:01:59,900 --> 02:02:01,500
And this is a switcheroo.

3650
02:02:01,600 --> 02:02:04,340
I.T.M. He says switcheroo donation in

3651
02:02:04,340 --> 02:02:06,300
the name of President Trump.

3652
02:02:06,560 --> 02:02:06,980
Oh, wow.

3653
02:02:07,000 --> 02:02:07,820
That hasn't happened.

3654
02:02:08,360 --> 02:02:09,220
No, it's funny.

3655
02:02:09,260 --> 02:02:09,780
It hasn't.

3656
02:02:10,800 --> 02:02:15,400
I propose when I propose whoever puts him

3657
02:02:15,400 --> 02:02:19,460
over the top should choose his night name.

3658
02:02:20,580 --> 02:02:22,500
Wait, I propose whoever puts him.

3659
02:02:22,500 --> 02:02:23,320
OK.

3660
02:02:23,640 --> 02:02:24,980
Oh, I see what they're saying.

3661
02:02:25,320 --> 02:02:28,660
In other words, it's census donations to Trump.

3662
02:02:28,800 --> 02:02:30,100
Ah, yes.

3663
02:02:30,420 --> 02:02:32,500
If he gets up to a thousand to

3664
02:02:32,500 --> 02:02:34,300
be knighted, someone gets to choose his night

3665
02:02:34,300 --> 02:02:35,200
name relation.

3666
02:02:35,360 --> 02:02:37,600
And he was asking for relationship, karma, jobs,

3667
02:02:37,740 --> 02:02:37,980
karma.

3668
02:02:38,100 --> 02:02:39,100
I want it all.

3669
02:02:40,360 --> 02:02:42,480
OK, well, we'll if you don't mind, we'll

3670
02:02:42,480 --> 02:02:45,060
bundle the relationship and the jobs, karma into

3671
02:02:45,060 --> 02:02:48,960
one jobs, jobs, jobs and jobs.

3672
02:02:48,960 --> 02:02:51,540
Let's vote for jobs, karma.

3673
02:02:53,900 --> 02:02:57,660
Then we have Dana Hildale from Raleigh, North

3674
02:02:57,660 --> 02:03:00,420
Carolina, with a note that Dana sent in

3675
02:03:00,420 --> 02:03:03,140
with a very nice, very nice handwriting.

3676
02:03:03,600 --> 02:03:04,600
Nice handwriting.

3677
02:03:05,360 --> 02:03:07,940
Dear John and Adam, this is three thirty

3678
02:03:07,940 --> 02:03:08,860
three dot thirty three.

3679
02:03:09,260 --> 02:03:11,800
This donation is my first executive producer donation

3680
02:03:11,800 --> 02:03:13,480
and earns my Damehood.

3681
02:03:13,480 --> 02:03:15,660
I'd like to be Dame Dana of North

3682
02:03:15,660 --> 02:03:18,820
Carolina and request a charcuterie board and a

3683
02:03:18,820 --> 02:03:21,440
Rombauer Chardonnay at the roundtable.

3684
02:03:21,900 --> 02:03:24,440
Adam, I love your analysis and kind spirit.

3685
02:03:24,840 --> 02:03:26,420
John, I love your giggle.

3686
02:03:27,200 --> 02:03:28,320
That says it all.

3687
02:03:28,660 --> 02:03:29,340
That says it all.

3688
02:03:30,100 --> 02:03:31,120
It's a giggle.

3689
02:03:36,060 --> 02:03:37,880
So I can do that voice without the

3690
02:03:37,880 --> 02:03:38,220
machine.

3691
02:03:38,320 --> 02:03:39,580
You do have a giggle, though.

3692
02:03:39,620 --> 02:03:40,180
There's a giggle.

3693
02:03:40,180 --> 02:03:43,140
Sometimes and usually I make a giggle.

3694
02:03:43,400 --> 02:03:44,800
But you do you do have a giggle.

3695
02:03:49,070 --> 02:03:50,750
OK, that is your witch.

3696
02:03:51,750 --> 02:03:53,010
Merry Christmas, Dana H.

3697
02:03:53,070 --> 02:03:53,970
Thank you, Dana H.

3698
02:03:54,150 --> 02:03:55,850
And we'll see you at the roundtable later

3699
02:03:55,850 --> 02:03:56,350
on.

3700
02:03:57,590 --> 02:03:59,130
I also do Krusty the Clown laugh.

3701
02:03:59,230 --> 02:04:01,490
Well, we the we the we.

3702
02:04:01,670 --> 02:04:02,010
Oh, no.

3703
02:04:02,630 --> 02:04:03,930
We Realty Inc.

3704
02:04:04,250 --> 02:04:08,210
We Realty Inc., which I assume is a

3705
02:04:08,210 --> 02:04:08,910
real estate company.

3706
02:04:09,050 --> 02:04:09,450
I think so.

3707
02:04:10,270 --> 02:04:13,610
And they have no location from the looks

3708
02:04:13,610 --> 02:04:14,070
of this.

3709
02:04:14,830 --> 02:04:16,090
I wish they would have put in a

3710
02:04:16,090 --> 02:04:16,330
note.

3711
02:04:16,410 --> 02:04:17,330
It would have been helpful.

3712
02:04:19,710 --> 02:04:21,630
Well, you guys can next time you donate,

3713
02:04:21,730 --> 02:04:23,050
make sure to put the name of the

3714
02:04:23,050 --> 02:04:23,390
town.

3715
02:04:24,050 --> 02:04:25,090
You guys are amazing.

3716
02:04:25,890 --> 02:04:28,350
I started listening during the pandemic after Adam

3717
02:04:28,350 --> 02:04:29,070
appeared again.

3718
02:04:29,230 --> 02:04:31,730
A second Joe Rogan donation.

3719
02:04:31,730 --> 02:04:35,190
It's hard to communicate how much this show

3720
02:04:35,190 --> 02:04:40,170
and you two have positively impacted my life.

3721
02:04:40,570 --> 02:04:40,770
Wow.

3722
02:04:41,510 --> 02:04:46,050
What we're doing is counter impacting the life

3723
02:04:46,050 --> 02:04:48,830
that was created by the mainstream media to

3724
02:04:48,830 --> 02:04:49,730
screw everyone.

3725
02:04:49,990 --> 02:04:50,210
Yes.

3726
02:04:50,950 --> 02:04:52,610
We didn't do that much, to be honest

3727
02:04:52,610 --> 02:04:53,130
about it.

3728
02:04:53,610 --> 02:04:54,610
It would be honest.

3729
02:04:55,010 --> 02:04:56,450
This donation is long overdue.

3730
02:04:56,450 --> 02:04:58,450
I'm donating a 330 in honor of my

3731
02:04:58,450 --> 02:05:02,050
son, Weston, born on November 13th, 2023 at

3732
02:05:02,050 --> 02:05:04,790
330 a.m. On the nose.

3733
02:05:05,310 --> 02:05:06,210
Oh, that's interesting.

3734
02:05:06,890 --> 02:05:09,910
Born at 330 on the nose.

3735
02:05:10,310 --> 02:05:11,270
Thank you for all you do.

3736
02:05:11,530 --> 02:05:12,550
Four more years.

3737
02:05:13,090 --> 02:05:13,510
We Realty.

3738
02:05:14,230 --> 02:05:16,310
That's we, W-E, Realty Inc.

3739
02:05:16,870 --> 02:05:17,330
All right.

3740
02:05:17,470 --> 02:05:17,850
Thank you.

3741
02:05:17,890 --> 02:05:18,830
We Realty Inc.

3742
02:05:19,850 --> 02:05:23,310
Sir Alex Vander Hengst, Springfield, Tennessee.

3743
02:05:24,850 --> 02:05:25,770
321-25.

3744
02:05:26,030 --> 02:05:27,510
Just says no jingles, no karma.

3745
02:05:27,670 --> 02:05:28,890
Sir Alex Vander Hengst.

3746
02:05:29,030 --> 02:05:30,010
Well, thank you very much.

3747
02:05:30,110 --> 02:05:30,610
It's beautiful.

3748
02:05:32,460 --> 02:05:35,140
And then we have Lavender Blossoms from Northville,

3749
02:05:35,500 --> 02:05:36,140
Michigan.

3750
02:05:36,580 --> 02:05:36,700
Yes, Sir Cal.

3751
02:05:36,700 --> 02:05:39,940
At 242.25 with no note.

3752
02:05:40,100 --> 02:05:40,440
What?

3753
02:05:41,080 --> 02:05:43,540
That's unusual for Sir Cal.

3754
02:05:43,540 --> 02:05:44,740
I think there should be a note.

3755
02:05:44,860 --> 02:05:46,040
It's missing in action.

3756
02:05:46,200 --> 02:05:47,560
What is his website?

3757
02:05:48,640 --> 02:05:49,560
Lavenderblossoms.org.

3758
02:05:50,320 --> 02:05:50,780
Lavenderblossoms.org.

3759
02:05:50,780 --> 02:05:53,120
Yeah, go to Lavenderblossoms.org and ask him

3760
02:05:53,120 --> 02:05:54,200
why he didn't send in a note.

3761
02:05:54,200 --> 02:05:56,020
Meanwhile, give him a double up karma.

3762
02:05:57,480 --> 02:06:00,840
You've got karma.

3763
02:06:03,220 --> 02:06:05,460
And there's our buddy Eli the Coffee Guy

3764
02:06:05,460 --> 02:06:07,960
who checks in from Bensonville, Illinois with 201

3765
02:06:07,960 --> 02:06:10,300
.02. And he says, of course, Happy New

3766
02:06:10,300 --> 02:06:11,040
Year, all.

3767
02:06:11,520 --> 02:06:14,380
As promised, 2025 started off with a bang,

3768
02:06:14,720 --> 02:06:15,100
literally.

3769
02:06:15,800 --> 02:06:17,120
Next thing you know, the media will be

3770
02:06:17,120 --> 02:06:19,200
espousing the hazards of electric vehicles.

3771
02:06:19,380 --> 02:06:20,720
Well, we already kind of heard that, didn't

3772
02:06:20,720 --> 02:06:20,860
we?

3773
02:06:20,860 --> 02:06:22,760
I'm just glad I started off the new

3774
02:06:22,760 --> 02:06:25,840
year right by enjoying a duck confit, Persian

3775
02:06:25,840 --> 02:06:28,700
meatballs in a pomegranate reduction, and washing it

3776
02:06:28,700 --> 02:06:30,620
all down with a box set of Bordeaux

3777
02:06:30,620 --> 02:06:31,340
from Costco.

3778
02:06:31,860 --> 02:06:32,700
Now you're talking.

3779
02:06:33,200 --> 02:06:35,320
But now that celebrations are over, it's time

3780
02:06:35,320 --> 02:06:37,100
to get back to the business of business.

3781
02:06:37,680 --> 02:06:40,480
Nothing helps you get it done like coffee.

3782
02:06:40,940 --> 02:06:45,300
So visit gigawattcoffeeroasters.com and use code ITM20

3783
02:06:45,300 --> 02:06:48,040
for 20% off your order and stay

3784
02:06:48,040 --> 02:06:50,580
caffeinated, says Eli the Coffee Guy.

3785
02:06:51,060 --> 02:06:53,440
Man, that's followed up by Linda Lou Patkin

3786
02:06:53,440 --> 02:06:57,680
in Lakewood, Colorado, who asks for jobs, jobs,

3787
02:06:57,800 --> 02:06:58,120
karma.

3788
02:06:58,360 --> 02:06:59,660
That blew it right off the bat.

3789
02:07:00,120 --> 02:07:00,700
200 bucks.

3790
02:07:01,180 --> 02:07:04,820
Take 2025 by storm with a resume that

3791
02:07:04,820 --> 02:07:05,460
gets results.

3792
02:07:05,580 --> 02:07:06,200
She writes.

3793
02:07:06,600 --> 02:07:08,980
Go to imagemakersinc.com for all your executive

3794
02:07:08,980 --> 02:07:10,560
resume and job search needs.

3795
02:07:10,560 --> 02:07:14,160
That's imagemakersinc with a K.

3796
02:07:14,660 --> 02:07:17,120
And work with Linda Lou, Duchess of Jobs

3797
02:07:17,120 --> 02:07:18,320
and writer of resumes.

3798
02:07:18,560 --> 02:07:20,020
And she's doing quite well for herself.

3799
02:07:20,160 --> 02:07:23,200
Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.

3800
02:07:23,400 --> 02:07:24,900
Let's vote for jobs.

3801
02:07:26,280 --> 02:07:30,020
I have a process question, a production process

3802
02:07:30,020 --> 02:07:30,440
question.

3803
02:07:30,780 --> 02:07:34,080
Is there some agreement that we have that

3804
02:07:34,080 --> 02:07:35,800
you are the only one to read Linda

3805
02:07:35,800 --> 02:07:38,280
Lou Patkin's donation note?

3806
02:07:38,460 --> 02:07:39,740
No, it's been a tradition.

3807
02:07:39,740 --> 02:07:41,360
Yeah, but maybe we should mix it up

3808
02:07:41,360 --> 02:07:43,340
a little bit because you're clearly having issues.

3809
02:07:43,340 --> 02:07:44,440
Oh, you want to read it?

3810
02:07:44,500 --> 02:07:45,880
Yeah, I would like to read Linda Lou

3811
02:07:45,880 --> 02:07:46,100
Patkin's note.

3812
02:07:46,120 --> 02:07:47,560
Okay, from now on you're reading it.

3813
02:07:47,600 --> 02:07:49,720
Okay, so now I'll jump back to Michael

3814
02:07:49,720 --> 02:07:51,480
Supko in Belmar, New Jersey.

3815
02:07:51,580 --> 02:07:53,900
Oh, I know Belmar, who sent us $200

3816
02:07:53,900 --> 02:07:56,880
.79 and did not include a note.

3817
02:07:58,060 --> 02:07:58,720
You know what that means?

3818
02:07:59,060 --> 02:08:00,760
Yeah, that means a double up karma for

3819
02:08:00,760 --> 02:08:02,140
Michael Supko and Belmar.

3820
02:08:02,260 --> 02:08:05,560
You've got double up karma.

3821
02:08:05,560 --> 02:08:09,140
And that concludes our executive and associate executive

3822
02:08:09,140 --> 02:08:12,280
producers for episode 1726.

3823
02:08:12,520 --> 02:08:20,000
I did want to thank Frankenmuth Fudge, the

3824
02:08:20,000 --> 02:08:21,300
Frankenmuth Fudge Company.

3825
02:08:21,440 --> 02:08:22,580
Oh, yes, Frankenmuth Fudge.

3826
02:08:22,600 --> 02:08:24,540
I should mention we also got some fudge

3827
02:08:24,540 --> 02:08:26,560
from a, which I haven't sent you.

3828
02:08:26,640 --> 02:08:27,380
They sent it to me.

3829
02:08:27,440 --> 02:08:28,340
I have to send it to you.

3830
02:08:28,340 --> 02:08:31,580
We also got some fudge from some homemakers,

3831
02:08:32,140 --> 02:08:34,860
and we also got some coasters that are

3832
02:08:34,860 --> 02:08:37,720
beautiful, little wooden coasters that were made by

3833
02:08:37,720 --> 02:08:41,160
one of our female producers that say No

3834
02:08:41,160 --> 02:08:43,100
Agenda Show on them, and it's very, very

3835
02:08:43,100 --> 02:08:43,420
pretty.

3836
02:08:43,700 --> 02:08:45,180
I have two of those for you.

3837
02:08:45,340 --> 02:08:46,340
Well, thank you.

3838
02:08:47,000 --> 02:08:49,020
I received in the P.O. box upon

3839
02:08:49,020 --> 02:08:51,640
our return, I received a package of four

3840
02:08:51,640 --> 02:08:53,940
blocks, four blocks of fudge.

3841
02:08:54,420 --> 02:08:55,900
Yes, the Frankenmuth Fudge.

3842
02:08:55,960 --> 02:08:58,320
Which you can get at noagendafudge.com.

3843
02:08:58,320 --> 02:09:00,320
Do you get the cookie, the dough one,

3844
02:09:00,420 --> 02:09:00,800
the cookie?

3845
02:09:01,040 --> 02:09:03,360
Okay, so we had a New Year's dinner,

3846
02:09:03,880 --> 02:09:06,200
and we took a bar.

3847
02:09:06,360 --> 02:09:07,680
I mean, this is a literal bar.

3848
02:09:07,820 --> 02:09:08,260
It's like a gold bar.

3849
02:09:08,260 --> 02:09:08,960
No, it's huge.

3850
02:09:09,060 --> 02:09:10,420
It's a bar of fudge.

3851
02:09:10,680 --> 02:09:12,620
If you ate the whole thing, you'd be

3852
02:09:12,620 --> 02:09:12,940
dead.

3853
02:09:13,120 --> 02:09:16,340
Well, I will say that the people at

3854
02:09:16,340 --> 02:09:18,880
this dinner party were blown away.

3855
02:09:19,480 --> 02:09:21,360
They could not believe the quality.

3856
02:09:21,700 --> 02:09:22,660
They loved it.

3857
02:09:22,780 --> 02:09:25,780
One of them actually said, that's Frankenmuth Fudge.

3858
02:09:25,780 --> 02:09:28,700
She was from Michigan, knew all about it.

3859
02:09:28,980 --> 02:09:29,240
Oh, yeah.

3860
02:09:29,340 --> 02:09:32,580
So Jesse, JC's wife, knows all about it.

3861
02:09:32,620 --> 02:09:34,020
It's a very famous company in Michigan.

3862
02:09:34,140 --> 02:09:34,360
It's famous.

3863
02:09:34,640 --> 02:09:37,040
And they're like, those guys support your show?

3864
02:09:37,240 --> 02:09:37,640
Like, really?

3865
02:09:37,700 --> 02:09:40,140
That stupid podcast you do on the pod

3866
02:09:40,140 --> 02:09:40,560
scape?

3867
02:09:40,620 --> 02:09:40,960
Really?

3868
02:09:41,480 --> 02:09:42,660
I said, yeah, believe it or not.

3869
02:09:42,760 --> 02:09:43,600
We're large.

3870
02:09:43,780 --> 02:09:44,280
We're big.

3871
02:09:44,360 --> 02:09:44,940
We're nationwide.

3872
02:09:45,220 --> 02:09:45,940
That's how we roll.

3873
02:09:46,620 --> 02:09:47,760
So thank you for that.

3874
02:09:47,880 --> 02:09:49,620
And, again, thank you to, we'll be thanking

3875
02:09:49,620 --> 02:09:51,820
everybody, $50 and above, in our second segment.

3876
02:09:51,920 --> 02:09:53,660
But thank you to these executive and associate

3877
02:09:53,660 --> 02:09:55,920
executive producers for making it all happen today.

3878
02:09:56,900 --> 02:09:58,980
Noagendadonations.com is where you can support us.

3879
02:09:59,060 --> 02:10:00,900
That's noagendadonations.com.

3880
02:10:00,980 --> 02:10:02,800
Thank you for supporting our latest episode.

3881
02:10:02,940 --> 02:10:04,140
Our formula is this.

3882
02:10:06,220 --> 02:10:07,480
We hit people in the mouth.

3883
02:10:12,440 --> 02:10:13,680
What else?

3884
02:10:14,640 --> 02:10:15,120
Order.

3885
02:10:18,040 --> 02:10:19,800
Shut up, Steve.

3886
02:10:23,100 --> 02:10:23,720
Yeah.

3887
02:10:24,680 --> 02:10:29,340
Did you see that 60 Minutes had a

3888
02:10:29,340 --> 02:10:32,320
Mossad guy on talking about the pagers and

3889
02:10:32,320 --> 02:10:33,280
the walkie-talkies?

3890
02:10:34,000 --> 02:10:35,700
I did not see this.

3891
02:10:35,940 --> 02:10:36,760
Oh, man.

3892
02:10:37,720 --> 02:10:41,340
So they have a guy on, and he's

3893
02:10:41,340 --> 02:10:43,020
got a ski mask, glasses.

3894
02:10:43,480 --> 02:10:44,900
They use a phony voice.

3895
02:10:45,360 --> 02:10:48,300
And he's talking about, oh, no, he explains

3896
02:10:48,300 --> 02:10:50,280
the whole thing, how they did the pagers

3897
02:10:50,280 --> 02:10:51,820
and the walkie-talkies.

3898
02:10:51,820 --> 02:10:53,500
I have a number of clips if you're

3899
02:10:53,500 --> 02:10:53,860
interested.

3900
02:10:54,300 --> 02:10:56,740
I think I saw parts of this, not

3901
02:10:56,740 --> 02:10:57,740
to mention it.

3902
02:10:57,980 --> 02:10:58,520
Play them.

3903
02:10:59,020 --> 02:11:02,780
On September 17th, after Israel and the terrorist

3904
02:11:02,780 --> 02:11:06,740
organization Hezbollah had been in an escalating war

3905
02:11:06,740 --> 02:11:10,180
for nearly a year, the Israeli spy agency

3906
02:11:10,180 --> 02:11:13,240
Mossad launched one of the most daring and

3907
02:11:13,240 --> 02:11:17,900
sophisticated deceptions in the history of counterintelligence, the

3908
02:11:17,900 --> 02:11:21,240
pager plot, a modern take on the Trojan

3909
02:11:21,240 --> 02:11:21,680
horse.

3910
02:11:22,580 --> 02:11:26,100
Mossad created a bomb in a pocket and

3911
02:11:26,100 --> 02:11:30,220
tricked Hezbollah fighters into unwittingly wearing these devices

3912
02:11:30,220 --> 02:11:31,260
on their bodies.

3913
02:11:31,900 --> 02:11:34,880
The repercussions of the plot have been dramatic,

3914
02:11:35,580 --> 02:11:38,300
including aiding in the fall of the Assad

3915
02:11:38,300 --> 02:11:42,280
regime in Syria, the weakening of Iran, and

3916
02:11:42,280 --> 02:11:44,980
the decimating of the target of the plot,

3917
02:11:45,560 --> 02:11:45,960
Hezbollah.

3918
02:11:45,960 --> 02:11:50,620
We spoke with two recently retired senior Mossad

3919
02:11:50,620 --> 02:11:53,340
agents with leading roles in the operation.

3920
02:11:53,860 --> 02:11:56,760
To hide their identities, we agreed they could

3921
02:11:56,760 --> 02:11:59,940
wear a mask and have their voices altered.

3922
02:12:00,300 --> 02:12:02,280
It was really a sight to be seen

3923
02:12:02,280 --> 02:12:06,140
with a full on, you know, like a

3924
02:12:06,140 --> 02:12:06,420
mask.

3925
02:12:06,780 --> 02:12:07,900
A ski mask, I think.

3926
02:12:08,000 --> 02:12:10,240
The whole ski mask, the dark shades.

3927
02:12:10,600 --> 02:12:13,400
I don't know why this was done.

3928
02:12:13,400 --> 02:12:15,700
I mean, other than to tout that Mossad

3929
02:12:15,700 --> 02:12:17,400
is awesome, I'm not sure.

3930
02:12:18,480 --> 02:12:19,480
Yes, there's no...

3931
02:12:20,240 --> 02:12:21,880
Yeah, I'm with you on this.

3932
02:12:22,380 --> 02:12:22,760
Why?

3933
02:12:22,960 --> 02:12:23,360
Why?

3934
02:12:24,060 --> 02:12:25,180
Why do you do this?

3935
02:12:25,260 --> 02:12:26,640
Why don't you just shut up?

3936
02:12:26,840 --> 02:12:27,060
Yeah.

3937
02:12:28,060 --> 02:12:30,620
And, you know, you can gloat amongst yourselves.

3938
02:12:30,940 --> 02:12:33,540
But to do this publicly is some message.

3939
02:12:33,640 --> 02:12:34,840
There's something about it.

3940
02:12:34,840 --> 02:12:35,880
They did it for some reason.

3941
02:12:35,940 --> 02:12:36,600
We don't know what.

3942
02:12:36,680 --> 02:12:37,740
I have too many clips.

3943
02:12:37,840 --> 02:12:39,120
I'm going to jump around on this.

3944
02:12:39,180 --> 02:12:40,320
They're all relatively short, though.

3945
02:12:40,360 --> 02:12:41,700
We start with the walkie talkies.

3946
02:12:41,700 --> 02:12:45,240
We started with Michael, not his real name.

3947
02:12:45,400 --> 02:12:46,520
No shit, Sherlock.

3948
02:12:47,540 --> 02:12:49,660
You were something called a case officer.

3949
02:12:50,080 --> 02:12:51,980
What exactly is a case officer?

3950
02:12:52,320 --> 02:12:54,940
A case officer spearheads the operation.

3951
02:12:55,120 --> 02:12:56,680
He is the commander of the operation.

3952
02:12:57,360 --> 02:12:59,760
The operation started 10 years ago.

3953
02:13:00,260 --> 02:13:04,680
Not with pagers, but with weaponizing walkie talkies.

3954
02:13:05,240 --> 02:13:07,720
A walkie talkie was a weapon.

3955
02:13:07,720 --> 02:13:10,500
Just like a bullet or a missile or

3956
02:13:10,500 --> 02:13:10,880
a mortar.

3957
02:13:10,880 --> 02:13:12,860
So a walkie talkie bomb.

3958
02:13:13,140 --> 02:13:13,920
A walkie talkie bomb.

3959
02:13:14,380 --> 02:13:16,740
Inside the battery, there is an explosive device.

3960
02:13:17,140 --> 02:13:19,120
And that was the invention, to put an

3961
02:13:19,120 --> 02:13:22,540
explosive device that couldn't be detected into the

3962
02:13:22,540 --> 02:13:22,860
battery.

3963
02:13:23,060 --> 02:13:23,460
Correct.

3964
02:13:23,720 --> 02:13:24,440
Made in Israel.

3965
02:13:24,900 --> 02:13:25,480
At Mossad?

3966
02:13:26,160 --> 02:13:26,500
Yes.

3967
02:13:26,920 --> 02:13:30,720
As I understand it, these walkie talkies went

3968
02:13:30,720 --> 02:13:33,720
into a tactical vest that a soldier would

3969
02:13:33,720 --> 02:13:36,120
put on, and then this would go in

3970
02:13:36,120 --> 02:13:36,560
the pocket.

3971
02:13:36,680 --> 02:13:37,000
Correct.

3972
02:13:37,220 --> 02:13:37,900
Near the heart.

3973
02:13:38,100 --> 02:13:38,440
Yes.

3974
02:13:38,440 --> 02:13:43,660
So Israel sold this device to Hezbollah.

3975
02:13:43,900 --> 02:13:47,540
Hezbollah paid for this weapon that was to

3976
02:13:47,540 --> 02:13:48,560
be used against them.

3977
02:13:49,420 --> 02:13:50,220
Thank God, a good price.

3978
02:13:50,820 --> 02:13:54,060
A good price that couldn't be too low,

3979
02:13:54,160 --> 02:13:55,320
or they'd be suspicious.

3980
02:13:55,760 --> 02:13:57,760
By the way, now that I'm listening to

3981
02:13:57,760 --> 02:14:00,920
this, this is clearly not a voice changer.

3982
02:14:01,140 --> 02:14:02,460
This is AI voices.

3983
02:14:02,460 --> 02:14:05,320
It's entirely possible they just took a couple

3984
02:14:05,320 --> 02:14:07,820
of interns, put a ski mask on their

3985
02:14:07,820 --> 02:14:11,140
head with some glasses, and then threw in

3986
02:14:11,140 --> 02:14:11,500
some AI.

3987
02:14:11,580 --> 02:14:13,960
The AI voices, it's edited in here.

3988
02:14:14,500 --> 02:14:16,820
It's not a natural flow of conversation.

3989
02:14:17,000 --> 02:14:19,760
So this could be a total CBS, CIA

3990
02:14:19,760 --> 02:14:21,880
broadcasting systems bull crap.

3991
02:14:22,940 --> 02:14:25,540
There's something wrong with this whole report.

3992
02:14:26,380 --> 02:14:27,340
It makes no mistake.

3993
02:14:27,360 --> 02:14:28,500
Yeah, I can see that.

3994
02:14:28,580 --> 02:14:30,140
That would be a good idea, actually.

3995
02:14:30,540 --> 02:14:31,840
Particularly when you hear this.

3996
02:14:31,840 --> 02:14:33,460
Why is any Mossad guy going to do

3997
02:14:33,460 --> 02:14:33,720
this?

3998
02:14:33,760 --> 02:14:34,600
It wouldn't make sense.

3999
02:14:35,520 --> 02:14:40,020
This is part of this propaganda piece.

4000
02:14:40,160 --> 02:14:43,080
In the end, Hezbollah bought over 16,000

4001
02:14:43,080 --> 02:14:46,700
of these exploding walkie-talkies that Israel then

4002
02:14:46,700 --> 02:14:50,540
didn't activate for 10 years until three months

4003
02:14:50,540 --> 02:14:50,920
ago.

4004
02:14:51,360 --> 02:14:54,960
How did you convince Hezbollah to buy this?

4005
02:14:55,500 --> 02:14:57,700
Well, obviously, they didn't know that they were

4006
02:14:57,700 --> 02:14:58,540
buying it from Israel.

4007
02:14:58,540 --> 02:15:00,680
Who did they buy it from or think

4008
02:15:00,680 --> 02:15:01,660
they were buying it from?

4009
02:15:02,220 --> 02:15:06,340
We have an incredible array of possibilities of

4010
02:15:06,340 --> 02:15:10,460
creating foreign companies that have no way of

4011
02:15:10,460 --> 02:15:13,380
being traced back to Israel, shell companies over

4012
02:15:13,380 --> 02:15:15,780
shell companies who affect the supply chain to

4013
02:15:15,780 --> 02:15:16,320
our favor.

4014
02:15:16,900 --> 02:15:18,740
We create a pretend world.

4015
02:15:19,040 --> 02:15:21,440
We are a global production company.

4016
02:15:21,740 --> 02:15:23,120
We write the screenplay.

4017
02:15:23,180 --> 02:15:24,480
We're the directors.

4018
02:15:24,680 --> 02:15:25,500
We're the producers.

4019
02:15:25,800 --> 02:15:27,180
We're the main actors.

4020
02:15:27,180 --> 02:15:28,940
The world is our stage.

4021
02:15:29,820 --> 02:15:30,700
Oh, brother.

4022
02:15:31,180 --> 02:15:33,480
Why is this taking place?

4023
02:15:33,580 --> 02:15:34,580
Help me with this.

4024
02:15:34,780 --> 02:15:36,920
There's something about this.

4025
02:15:38,240 --> 02:15:39,940
The world is our stage.

4026
02:15:40,980 --> 02:15:45,980
By the way, these batteries are replaceable.

4027
02:15:46,220 --> 02:15:48,540
A 10-year-old product with a battery

4028
02:15:48,540 --> 02:15:50,480
in it is going to be so degraded

4029
02:15:50,480 --> 02:15:52,760
by the time 10 years rolls by.

4030
02:15:52,800 --> 02:15:54,600
You're going to probably throw the old battery

4031
02:15:54,600 --> 02:15:55,020
out.

4032
02:15:55,020 --> 02:15:57,780
Okay, I'm going to paré on that because

4033
02:15:57,780 --> 02:16:01,040
I have 10-year-old Baofengs and I

4034
02:16:01,040 --> 02:16:03,180
carry one in my bag and I turn

4035
02:16:03,180 --> 02:16:05,480
it on, the battery is still full.

4036
02:16:05,940 --> 02:16:07,180
It's still full.

4037
02:16:07,440 --> 02:16:09,260
It could be a good product.

4038
02:16:09,380 --> 02:16:10,760
The Baofeng is a good product.

4039
02:16:11,200 --> 02:16:12,900
So, I'm going to skip over some of

4040
02:16:12,900 --> 02:16:15,200
the bits here, but here's how they marketed

4041
02:16:15,200 --> 02:16:17,700
it to make the stupid Hezbollah buy it

4042
02:16:17,700 --> 02:16:18,180
from them.

4043
02:16:19,260 --> 02:16:21,440
Character, meaning added features.

4044
02:16:21,520 --> 02:16:21,820
Oh, wait.

4045
02:16:21,880 --> 02:16:23,360
I should probably play this one first.

4046
02:16:23,360 --> 02:16:27,540
Could you use it as a tracking device?

4047
02:16:28,140 --> 02:16:30,200
This is talking about the pagers now.

4048
02:16:30,940 --> 02:16:31,840
Oh, no.

4049
02:16:32,320 --> 02:16:34,240
This is a very stupid device by nature.

4050
02:16:34,820 --> 02:16:36,280
This is the reason they're using it.

4051
02:16:36,740 --> 02:16:38,639
There's almost no way how to tap it.

4052
02:16:39,299 --> 02:16:42,520
It's only receiving messages and several grams of

4053
02:16:42,520 --> 02:16:42,940
explosive.

4054
02:16:45,790 --> 02:16:49,330
Mossad also tested these ringtones to find a

4055
02:16:49,330 --> 02:16:52,230
sound urgent enough to compel someone to take

4056
02:16:52,230 --> 02:16:53,129
it out of their pocket.

4057
02:16:54,290 --> 02:16:56,750
And they tested how long it takes a

4058
02:16:56,750 --> 02:16:58,309
person to answer a pager.

4059
02:16:58,690 --> 02:17:00,910
On average, seven seconds.

4060
02:17:01,650 --> 02:17:04,290
But how to convince Hezbollah to switch to

4061
02:17:04,290 --> 02:17:05,809
this bulkier pager?

4062
02:17:06,309 --> 02:17:07,770
I remember the day that I came to

4063
02:17:07,770 --> 02:17:10,150
our director, put it on the table, and

4064
02:17:10,150 --> 02:17:11,170
he was furious.

4065
02:17:11,770 --> 02:17:13,870
He was telling us, there is no chance

4066
02:17:13,870 --> 02:17:15,870
that anyone would buy such a big device.

4067
02:17:16,309 --> 02:17:17,690
It's not comfortable in their pocket.

4068
02:17:17,990 --> 02:17:18,809
It's heavy.

4069
02:17:19,010 --> 02:17:19,629
Very heavy.

4070
02:17:19,830 --> 02:17:20,370
Very heavy.

4071
02:17:20,670 --> 02:17:21,389
It's no good.

4072
02:17:21,389 --> 02:17:21,709
Yeah.

4073
02:17:22,049 --> 02:17:23,030
Go back and bring me something.

4074
02:17:23,030 --> 02:17:24,870
Do you hear this edit job?

4075
02:17:25,090 --> 02:17:25,490
Very heavy.

4076
02:17:25,629 --> 02:17:25,930
Yeah.

4077
02:17:26,190 --> 02:17:28,250
You hear complete different audio and everything.

4078
02:17:28,370 --> 02:17:28,530
Listen.

4079
02:17:29,049 --> 02:17:30,850
There is no chance that anyone would buy

4080
02:17:30,850 --> 02:17:31,850
such a big device.

4081
02:17:32,309 --> 02:17:33,709
It's not comfortable in their pocket.

4082
02:17:34,030 --> 02:17:34,790
It's heavy.

4083
02:17:35,010 --> 02:17:35,610
Very heavy.

4084
02:17:35,830 --> 02:17:36,350
Very heavy.

4085
02:17:36,670 --> 02:17:37,350
It's no good.

4086
02:17:37,530 --> 02:17:37,709
Yeah.

4087
02:17:37,910 --> 02:17:39,490
Go back and bring me something else.

4088
02:17:39,930 --> 02:17:41,430
It took me two weeks to convince him

4089
02:17:41,430 --> 02:17:43,809
that although it's ugly, it has character.

4090
02:17:43,950 --> 02:17:44,170
Right.

4091
02:17:44,250 --> 02:17:45,790
Now the character clip, which is kind of

4092
02:17:45,790 --> 02:17:46,129
interesting.

4093
02:17:47,090 --> 02:17:51,370
Character, meaning added features, which they touted in

4094
02:17:51,370 --> 02:17:53,230
fake ads on YouTube.

4095
02:17:53,750 --> 02:17:54,430
Robust.

4096
02:17:55,030 --> 02:17:55,370
Dustproof.

4097
02:17:56,190 --> 02:17:56,870
Waterproof.

4098
02:17:57,209 --> 02:17:58,510
Long battery life.

4099
02:17:59,049 --> 02:18:02,049
We make advertising movies and brochures, and we

4100
02:18:02,049 --> 02:18:02,910
put it on the internet.

4101
02:18:03,250 --> 02:18:04,950
And it become the best product in the

4102
02:18:04,950 --> 02:18:06,530
beeper area in the world.

4103
02:18:06,809 --> 02:18:09,690
Did people other than Hezbollah want to buy

4104
02:18:09,690 --> 02:18:12,150
this based on what was being said about

4105
02:18:12,150 --> 02:18:12,690
it online?

4106
02:18:13,010 --> 02:18:13,330
Yes.

4107
02:18:13,330 --> 02:18:16,430
We received several requests from regular potential customer.

4108
02:18:17,090 --> 02:18:19,049
Obviously, we didn't send to anyone.

4109
02:18:19,450 --> 02:18:21,290
We just bought them with expensive price.

4110
02:18:21,730 --> 02:18:24,590
Mossad wanted to use the name Gold Apollo

4111
02:18:24,590 --> 02:18:25,809
on its pager.

4112
02:18:26,389 --> 02:18:29,650
So it set up shell companies, including one

4113
02:18:29,650 --> 02:18:32,530
in this building in Hungary, to dupe the

4114
02:18:32,530 --> 02:18:35,170
Taiwanese into partnering with them.

4115
02:18:35,350 --> 02:18:38,030
So now they're going to tout the fact

4116
02:18:38,030 --> 02:18:40,709
that they duped the Taiwanese because they're like

4117
02:18:40,709 --> 02:18:41,809
the Truman Show.

4118
02:18:41,809 --> 02:18:46,469
So the company in Taiwan, Gold Apollo, did

4119
02:18:46,469 --> 02:18:49,290
they know that they were working with people

4120
02:18:49,290 --> 02:18:49,950
from Mossad?

4121
02:18:50,330 --> 02:18:52,650
Gold Apollo had zero clue that they are

4122
02:18:52,650 --> 02:18:53,530
working with the Mossad.

4123
02:18:53,629 --> 02:18:55,309
And neither did Hezbollah.

4124
02:18:55,790 --> 02:18:57,170
When they are buying from us, they have

4125
02:18:57,170 --> 02:18:58,889
zero clue that they are buying from the

4126
02:18:58,889 --> 02:18:59,750
Mossad.

4127
02:18:59,790 --> 02:19:01,230
We make like Truman Show.

4128
02:19:01,590 --> 02:19:03,870
Everything is controlled by us behind the scene.

4129
02:19:04,430 --> 02:19:06,709
In their experience, everything is normal.

4130
02:19:06,709 --> 02:19:10,910
Everything was 100 percent kosher, including businessmen, marketing,

4131
02:19:11,330 --> 02:19:13,410
engineers, showroom, everything.

4132
02:19:14,010 --> 02:19:17,010
To further the plot, Mossad hired the Gold

4133
02:19:17,010 --> 02:19:20,309
Apollo saleswoman Hezbollah was used to working with

4134
02:19:20,309 --> 02:19:20,770
before.

4135
02:19:21,730 --> 02:19:24,410
She offered them the first batch of pagers

4136
02:19:24,410 --> 02:19:27,430
as an upgrade free of charge.

4137
02:19:27,969 --> 02:19:33,410
By September 2024, Hezbollah had 5,000 pagers

4138
02:19:33,410 --> 02:19:34,650
in their pockets.

4139
02:19:34,650 --> 02:19:36,469
You know, it makes me wonder about this

4140
02:19:36,469 --> 02:19:37,469
flip phone I've got.

4141
02:19:37,690 --> 02:19:38,690
You know, best price.

4142
02:19:39,950 --> 02:19:41,809
I'm looking for a new co-host.

4143
02:19:42,930 --> 02:19:43,889
You don't need one.

4144
02:19:43,969 --> 02:19:45,549
You just ask why all the time and

4145
02:19:45,549 --> 02:19:46,410
you answer yourself.

4146
02:19:46,590 --> 02:19:48,790
I could try that technique.

4147
02:19:48,970 --> 02:19:50,670
Why would I do that?

4148
02:19:50,830 --> 02:19:52,770
Well, yeah, because a lot of different reasons.

4149
02:19:52,910 --> 02:19:54,170
Well, what do you think about this?

4150
02:19:54,410 --> 02:19:55,510
All right.

4151
02:19:55,530 --> 02:19:56,330
A couple more here.

4152
02:19:56,470 --> 02:19:58,210
So this is now about the activation.

4153
02:19:58,470 --> 02:19:59,850
By the way, all of this is the

4154
02:19:59,850 --> 02:20:00,970
story that we already knew.

4155
02:20:01,030 --> 02:20:02,730
We knew about the Taiwanese company.

4156
02:20:02,730 --> 02:20:04,270
All of this is known.

4157
02:20:04,390 --> 02:20:06,390
But for some reason, this story to be

4158
02:20:06,390 --> 02:20:09,210
put together with these interns with ski masks

4159
02:20:09,210 --> 02:20:10,250
and A.I. voices.

4160
02:20:10,830 --> 02:20:13,770
The question for Israel, when to activate the

4161
02:20:13,770 --> 02:20:14,610
sleeping bombs?

4162
02:20:15,330 --> 02:20:17,770
There were hints Hezbollah might be getting suspicious

4163
02:20:17,770 --> 02:20:18,710
of the devices.

4164
02:20:19,210 --> 02:20:22,390
So Mossad head Dadi Barnea gave the go

4165
02:20:22,390 --> 02:20:24,510
ahead, triggering the attack.

4166
02:20:24,810 --> 02:20:25,150
Triggering.

4167
02:20:25,230 --> 02:20:27,910
And shocking people around the world as it

4168
02:20:27,910 --> 02:20:30,690
seemed more like a spy movie than reality.

4169
02:20:30,690 --> 02:20:35,210
On September 17th at 330 p.m., pagers

4170
02:20:35,210 --> 02:20:37,870
started beeping all over Lebanon.

4171
02:20:38,550 --> 02:20:41,190
As I understand it, people with this pager

4172
02:20:41,190 --> 02:20:43,930
got a message that said you have an

4173
02:20:43,930 --> 02:20:45,150
encrypted message.

4174
02:20:45,450 --> 02:20:47,550
In order to access it, you have to

4175
02:20:47,550 --> 02:20:50,590
push the two buttons, meaning that it would

4176
02:20:50,590 --> 02:20:52,070
explode in their hands.

4177
02:20:52,650 --> 02:20:53,570
That was the whole point.

4178
02:20:53,850 --> 02:20:57,470
So if someone did not push the two

4179
02:20:57,470 --> 02:20:58,990
buttons, what happened?

4180
02:20:58,990 --> 02:21:00,490
It's the same effect.

4181
02:21:00,690 --> 02:21:02,110
It's going to explode anyway.

4182
02:21:02,350 --> 02:21:05,830
The explosive was triggered in Israel.

4183
02:21:06,330 --> 02:21:06,670
Yes.

4184
02:21:07,870 --> 02:21:08,390
Dude.

4185
02:21:08,650 --> 02:21:09,790
Wait, wait, wait.

4186
02:21:10,510 --> 02:21:11,030
What?

4187
02:21:12,910 --> 02:21:13,430
What?

4188
02:21:14,590 --> 02:21:16,850
If you push the two buttons, it exploded.

4189
02:21:17,090 --> 02:21:18,430
If you didn't push the two buttons, it

4190
02:21:18,430 --> 02:21:19,310
exploded anyway.

4191
02:21:19,490 --> 02:21:20,250
That's what he said.

4192
02:21:20,890 --> 02:21:23,290
Well, what's the point of even mentioning this?

4193
02:21:23,290 --> 02:21:24,390
It's just going to explode.

4194
02:21:24,390 --> 02:21:26,370
Well, it's just to make sure they have

4195
02:21:26,370 --> 02:21:28,110
them in their hands, because that was more

4196
02:21:28,110 --> 02:21:28,470
fun.

4197
02:21:29,330 --> 02:21:30,130
Better effect.

4198
02:21:30,590 --> 02:21:32,030
They want to make sure they blow their

4199
02:21:32,030 --> 02:21:32,770
hands off?

4200
02:21:32,830 --> 02:21:33,210
Blow their hands off.

4201
02:21:33,250 --> 02:21:34,950
Yeah, you know, a fighter, look, you can

4202
02:21:34,950 --> 02:21:36,290
hurt a fighter, but if you blow his

4203
02:21:36,290 --> 02:21:37,650
hands off, he's kind of useless.

4204
02:21:38,310 --> 02:21:39,970
You got to think like Mossad, baby.

4205
02:21:43,060 --> 02:21:45,040
What ensued was mayhem.

4206
02:21:46,980 --> 02:21:49,840
People with pagers blowing up on the street,

4207
02:21:50,120 --> 02:21:53,600
on motorcycles, hospitals filling up with the wounded,

4208
02:21:53,600 --> 02:21:58,500
limbs, fingers torn off, bloodied, blinded, holes in

4209
02:21:58,500 --> 02:21:59,400
stomachs.

4210
02:21:59,520 --> 02:22:01,360
This is a very accurate description.

4211
02:22:01,660 --> 02:22:02,500
I'm surprised.

4212
02:22:02,760 --> 02:22:05,360
For the most part, the explosions worked as

4213
02:22:05,360 --> 02:22:06,480
planned, they say.

4214
02:22:07,320 --> 02:22:08,740
Watch the man on the left.

4215
02:22:09,960 --> 02:22:11,060
The grocery store.

4216
02:22:12,740 --> 02:22:16,380
Those right next to him were unscathed.

4217
02:22:18,280 --> 02:22:22,280
The very next day, Mossad finally activated the

4218
02:22:22,280 --> 02:22:25,380
walkie-talkies that had been dormant for ten

4219
02:22:25,380 --> 02:22:28,780
years, some going off at the funerals of

4220
02:22:28,780 --> 02:22:30,520
those killed by the pagers.

4221
02:22:32,820 --> 02:22:36,420
All in all, about 30 people died, including

4222
02:22:36,420 --> 02:22:37,280
two children.

4223
02:22:37,820 --> 02:22:40,120
Around 3,000 were injured.

4224
02:22:40,640 --> 02:22:43,280
The aim, it wasn't killing Hezbollah terrorists.

4225
02:22:43,680 --> 02:22:45,220
If he's just dead, so he's dead.

4226
02:22:45,220 --> 02:22:47,680
But if he's wounded, you have to take

4227
02:22:47,680 --> 02:22:49,540
him to the hospital, take care of him.

4228
02:22:50,000 --> 02:22:51,680
You need to invest money in efforts.

4229
02:22:52,140 --> 02:22:54,380
And those people without hands and eyes are

4230
02:22:54,380 --> 02:22:57,300
living proof, walking in Lebanon, of don't mess

4231
02:22:57,300 --> 02:22:57,780
with us.

4232
02:22:58,360 --> 02:23:00,820
They are walking proof of our superiority all

4233
02:23:00,820 --> 02:23:01,760
around the Middle East.

4234
02:23:01,940 --> 02:23:03,640
Dude, what is this?

4235
02:23:03,740 --> 02:23:07,540
What kind of horrible advertisement is this from

4236
02:23:07,540 --> 02:23:08,100
Mossad?

4237
02:23:09,660 --> 02:23:11,440
I mean, this is, I find it very

4238
02:23:11,440 --> 02:23:12,040
peculiar.

4239
02:23:12,620 --> 02:23:14,020
Especially this, that part.

4240
02:23:14,020 --> 02:23:16,920
Yeah, that last one was the worst of

4241
02:23:16,920 --> 02:23:17,320
the group.

4242
02:23:17,960 --> 02:23:19,540
Okay, just a couple more and then we're

4243
02:23:19,540 --> 02:23:19,640
done.

4244
02:23:19,780 --> 02:23:20,420
Don't mess with us.

4245
02:23:20,540 --> 02:23:21,660
That's pretty much it.

4246
02:23:21,780 --> 02:23:24,900
Did you completely destroy and crush Hezbollah?

4247
02:23:25,420 --> 02:23:26,580
I think it's a big question.

4248
02:23:26,940 --> 02:23:28,760
And I think the honest answer would be

4249
02:23:28,760 --> 02:23:29,000
no.

4250
02:23:29,660 --> 02:23:31,660
But I think after this tipping point of

4251
02:23:31,660 --> 02:23:34,420
the beeper operation and the walkie-talkie and

4252
02:23:34,420 --> 02:23:37,400
then IDF attack, put Hezbollah in a very,

4253
02:23:37,620 --> 02:23:38,840
very difficult situation.

4254
02:23:38,840 --> 02:23:40,240
No chain of command.

4255
02:23:40,480 --> 02:23:42,040
No spirit in their soldiers.

4256
02:23:42,440 --> 02:23:44,500
Asking, begging for a ceasefire.

4257
02:23:44,900 --> 02:23:47,660
So you restore your sense of superiority.

4258
02:23:48,300 --> 02:23:51,160
But what about your moral reputation?

4259
02:23:51,520 --> 02:23:54,600
Don't you think Israel has to worry about

4260
02:23:54,600 --> 02:23:55,220
its reputation?

4261
02:23:56,800 --> 02:24:01,260
She says in a descriptive manner, so you

4262
02:24:01,260 --> 02:24:03,660
restore your sense of superiority.

4263
02:24:05,020 --> 02:24:06,860
What is that supposed to mean?

4264
02:24:06,860 --> 02:24:08,800
It was lost.

4265
02:24:08,920 --> 02:24:09,740
They lost their sense.

4266
02:24:09,820 --> 02:24:12,100
From the sounds of it, they've had a

4267
02:24:12,100 --> 02:24:14,140
sense of superiority since the get-go.

4268
02:24:14,720 --> 02:24:16,620
So what's being restored here?

4269
02:24:16,680 --> 02:24:18,900
And why does she ask that question?

4270
02:24:19,080 --> 02:24:20,540
Well, she's asking it because it's in the

4271
02:24:20,540 --> 02:24:20,800
script.

4272
02:24:20,920 --> 02:24:22,480
But I don't know why the script was

4273
02:24:22,480 --> 02:24:23,240
written that way.

4274
02:24:23,740 --> 02:24:25,900
It is the most bizarre thing that I

4275
02:24:25,900 --> 02:24:27,280
have seen in a long time.

4276
02:24:28,060 --> 02:24:29,860
60 minutes is no good.

4277
02:24:30,380 --> 02:24:32,240
Restore your sense of superiority.

4278
02:24:32,940 --> 02:24:35,560
But what about your moral reputation?

4279
02:24:35,560 --> 02:24:39,180
Don't you think Israel has to worry about

4280
02:24:39,180 --> 02:24:39,980
its reputation?

4281
02:24:40,580 --> 02:24:40,860
Definitely.

4282
02:24:41,380 --> 02:24:42,700
But there is a prioritization.

4283
02:24:43,260 --> 02:24:45,160
First, you have to defend your people not

4284
02:24:45,160 --> 02:24:46,520
being killed by the thousands.

4285
02:24:47,320 --> 02:24:48,900
And then, the reputation.

4286
02:24:50,020 --> 02:24:52,120
Well, the final clip is kind of what

4287
02:24:52,120 --> 02:24:55,140
got my goat, because there's something highly inaccurate

4288
02:24:55,140 --> 02:24:55,700
in here.

4289
02:24:56,320 --> 02:24:59,600
The pagers have had a profound rippling effect,

4290
02:25:00,200 --> 02:25:04,500
severely weakening Iran by leaving its proxy empire

4291
02:25:04,500 --> 02:25:05,280
in ruins.

4292
02:25:05,280 --> 02:25:09,980
With Hezbollah shattered in Lebanon, Assad toppled in

4293
02:25:09,980 --> 02:25:10,360
Syria.

4294
02:25:11,460 --> 02:25:14,560
We asked Agent Michael about the effect on

4295
02:25:14,560 --> 02:25:15,080
Gaza.

4296
02:25:15,480 --> 02:25:18,280
How does that affect the situation with Hamas?

4297
02:25:18,640 --> 02:25:21,620
The wind was taken out of Hezbollah's fight

4298
02:25:21,620 --> 02:25:23,140
after the pager operation.

4299
02:25:23,720 --> 02:25:25,520
And I'm hoping that it will have an

4300
02:25:25,520 --> 02:25:29,440
effect also on the Hamas and hostage situation,

4301
02:25:29,640 --> 02:25:32,640
because they're looking at their sides and they're

4302
02:25:32,640 --> 02:25:33,740
seeing no one next to them.

4303
02:25:33,740 --> 02:25:35,660
They're completely isolated now.

4304
02:25:36,640 --> 02:25:40,680
In terms of the kind of warfare that

4305
02:25:40,680 --> 02:25:43,040
was conducted with the walkie-talkies and the

4306
02:25:43,040 --> 02:25:46,380
pagers, would you call it a psychological war?

4307
02:25:46,700 --> 02:25:50,300
The day after the pagers exploded, people were

4308
02:25:50,300 --> 02:25:52,540
afraid to turn on the air conditioners in

4309
02:25:52,540 --> 02:25:54,900
Lebanon, because they were afraid that they would

4310
02:25:54,900 --> 02:25:55,420
explode.

4311
02:25:56,000 --> 02:25:58,480
So there is real fear.

4312
02:25:59,080 --> 02:26:00,060
Was that an intention?

4313
02:26:00,060 --> 02:26:03,140
We want them to feel vulnerable, which they

4314
02:26:03,140 --> 02:26:03,520
are.

4315
02:26:03,760 --> 02:26:05,760
We can't use the pagers again, because we

4316
02:26:05,760 --> 02:26:06,600
already did that.

4317
02:26:07,120 --> 02:26:09,120
We've already moved on to the next thing.

4318
02:26:10,020 --> 02:26:12,220
And they'll have to keep on trying to

4319
02:26:12,220 --> 02:26:14,260
guess what the next thing is.

4320
02:26:14,420 --> 02:26:15,820
That's not the clip I thought it was,

4321
02:26:15,920 --> 02:26:18,560
but this is them saying, we are a

4322
02:26:18,560 --> 02:26:19,860
terrorist organization.

4323
02:26:20,160 --> 02:26:20,400
Yeah.

4324
02:26:20,680 --> 02:26:22,460
They're a terrorist organization.

4325
02:26:23,180 --> 02:26:23,360
Yeah.

4326
02:26:23,820 --> 02:26:26,240
And they're literally terrorizing people.

4327
02:26:26,360 --> 02:26:28,240
And it's not just Iran.

4328
02:26:29,080 --> 02:26:29,960
I'm serious.

4329
02:26:30,080 --> 02:26:31,760
I'm like, okay, where did this flip phone

4330
02:26:31,760 --> 02:26:32,540
come from?

4331
02:26:33,440 --> 02:26:35,600
Can Mossad kill me at any moment?

4332
02:26:39,160 --> 02:26:40,500
I don't like it.

4333
02:26:40,500 --> 02:26:40,940
I have a drawer.

4334
02:26:41,260 --> 02:26:42,800
The worst that could happen is they're going

4335
02:26:42,800 --> 02:26:44,000
to blow up the credenza.

4336
02:26:44,120 --> 02:26:45,400
I think I'm going to put mine in

4337
02:26:45,400 --> 02:26:46,140
a drawer as well.

4338
02:26:46,220 --> 02:26:47,300
This is very annoying.

4339
02:26:47,820 --> 02:26:49,460
It's very annoying what they're doing.

4340
02:26:49,600 --> 02:26:50,480
I don't like it.

4341
02:26:51,360 --> 02:26:52,460
I don't like it.

4342
02:26:52,600 --> 02:26:55,340
And what the point was of CBS airing

4343
02:26:55,340 --> 02:26:56,320
this, I don't know.

4344
02:26:56,320 --> 02:26:57,800
It's a message to somebody.

4345
02:26:58,260 --> 02:27:00,080
And it's a message to somebody for some

4346
02:27:00,080 --> 02:27:00,420
reason.

4347
02:27:00,540 --> 02:27:00,700
It is.

4348
02:27:00,780 --> 02:27:00,940
Yes.

4349
02:27:00,960 --> 02:27:01,400
It's something.

4350
02:27:01,860 --> 02:27:02,380
Yeah.

4351
02:27:02,500 --> 02:27:03,120
We don't know.

4352
02:27:03,380 --> 02:27:03,620
Yeah.

4353
02:27:04,720 --> 02:27:06,440
Don't somebody might know.

4354
02:27:06,560 --> 02:27:07,140
Let's play this.

4355
02:27:07,340 --> 02:27:09,480
Since we're talking about this area, this might

4356
02:27:09,480 --> 02:27:12,160
as well play the NTD Syria update.

4357
02:27:12,500 --> 02:27:14,180
Keep us up apprised.

4358
02:27:14,280 --> 02:27:14,800
Okay.

4359
02:27:15,320 --> 02:27:18,000
Israeli forces continue to wage war on multiple

4360
02:27:18,000 --> 02:27:20,480
fronts against Iran backed terrorist groups.

4361
02:27:20,780 --> 02:27:23,700
Meanwhile, Iran Supreme leader has now called for

4362
02:27:23,700 --> 02:27:26,640
people in Syria to join the resistance against

4363
02:27:26,640 --> 02:27:27,200
Israel.

4364
02:27:27,420 --> 02:27:29,820
And it is Jason Perry has the latest.

4365
02:27:30,260 --> 02:27:33,220
Israeli forces released video on Wednesday of what

4366
02:27:33,220 --> 02:27:36,680
they said were Hezbollah terrorists transferring weapons from

4367
02:27:36,680 --> 02:27:38,300
a storage facility in Lebanon.

4368
02:27:38,900 --> 02:27:41,480
And moments later, the Israeli air force struck

4369
02:27:41,480 --> 02:27:43,880
the building to quote, remove the threat.

4370
02:27:44,300 --> 02:27:46,260
This strike comes in the middle of a

4371
02:27:46,260 --> 02:27:49,740
60 day ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah, which

4372
02:27:49,740 --> 02:27:51,460
is set to expire this month.

4373
02:27:51,820 --> 02:27:55,460
However, after the strike, Israel said they're operating

4374
02:27:55,460 --> 02:27:57,600
in accordance with the ceasefire agreement.

4375
02:27:58,340 --> 02:28:00,640
Also in Lebanon, a commander in the Israel

4376
02:28:00,640 --> 02:28:03,660
defense forces reported finding a mortar that was

4377
02:28:03,660 --> 02:28:06,640
ready to launch towards communities in Northern Israel.

4378
02:28:08,460 --> 02:28:10,340
Here you can see the shells prepared and

4379
02:28:10,340 --> 02:28:11,280
arranged here below.

4380
02:28:11,820 --> 02:28:13,640
Here's one shell as an example that we

4381
02:28:13,640 --> 02:28:16,060
can see here, a 15 kilogram shell.

4382
02:28:16,220 --> 02:28:18,320
They could simply take out the mortar, place

4383
02:28:18,320 --> 02:28:18,880
it inside.

4384
02:28:19,000 --> 02:28:19,940
And this shell is launched.

4385
02:28:20,640 --> 02:28:23,760
And in the Gaza strip, Israeli forces reported

4386
02:28:23,760 --> 02:28:26,000
getting shot at from a building that was

4387
02:28:26,000 --> 02:28:26,960
used as a mosque.

4388
02:28:29,660 --> 02:28:31,920
After we were shot at, we neutralized the

4389
02:28:31,920 --> 02:28:33,680
terrorists and entered the mosque.

4390
02:28:33,980 --> 02:28:36,020
The mosque from which we were shot at

4391
02:28:36,020 --> 02:28:36,800
can be seen here.

4392
02:28:37,340 --> 02:28:40,440
After searching the mosque, we identified significant underground

4393
02:28:40,440 --> 02:28:42,500
infrastructure in it, which can be seen here.

4394
02:28:42,980 --> 02:28:46,220
Before Israeli forces enter buildings, they've also been

4395
02:28:46,220 --> 02:28:48,880
using drones to search them because they could

4396
02:28:48,880 --> 02:28:51,340
be rigged with explosives as seen in this

4397
02:28:51,340 --> 02:28:52,160
building in Rafa.

4398
02:28:52,700 --> 02:28:55,380
But no matter the progress Israel makes against

4399
02:28:55,380 --> 02:28:59,060
Iran-backed terrorist groups, Iran's Supreme leader appears

4400
02:28:59,060 --> 02:29:02,340
undeterred as he vowed victory in Lebanon and

4401
02:29:02,340 --> 02:29:03,320
Yemen on Wednesday.

4402
02:29:03,860 --> 02:29:06,080
And he even called for people in Syria

4403
02:29:06,080 --> 02:29:08,360
to join the resistance against Israel.

4404
02:29:09,100 --> 02:29:12,400
You know, hearing this and I'm still thinking

4405
02:29:12,400 --> 02:29:15,680
about this, that Mossad thing, could this be

4406
02:29:15,680 --> 02:29:19,720
because clearly now Israel is, if they're not

4407
02:29:19,720 --> 02:29:22,180
taking claim for it, they are responsible.

4408
02:29:22,340 --> 02:29:23,540
Oh, we did Syria too.

4409
02:29:24,180 --> 02:29:28,560
Could this be a message from Mossad through

4410
02:29:28,560 --> 02:29:33,360
CIA, CBS, CIA broadcasting systems to Trump and

4411
02:29:33,360 --> 02:29:37,100
others to say, you know, we can get

4412
02:29:37,100 --> 02:29:39,320
you wherever we want, whenever we want.

4413
02:29:39,420 --> 02:29:42,460
Don't you dare take anything away from us.

4414
02:29:42,560 --> 02:29:44,620
Don't you try and change anything that we're

4415
02:29:44,620 --> 02:29:45,640
doing in the Middle East.

4416
02:29:45,640 --> 02:29:47,780
It certainly doesn't help with the anti Jew

4417
02:29:47,780 --> 02:29:49,540
vibe, this type of reporting, you know what

4418
02:29:49,540 --> 02:29:49,880
I'm saying?

4419
02:29:51,900 --> 02:29:52,400
Possible.

4420
02:29:53,980 --> 02:29:57,040
I mean, if I, if I heard this

4421
02:29:57,040 --> 02:29:59,400
and I'm a Senator, I'm like, okay, APAC,

4422
02:29:59,480 --> 02:30:00,000
come on in.

4423
02:30:00,760 --> 02:30:02,640
I don't want you blowing up my air

4424
02:30:02,640 --> 02:30:05,120
conditioner or cell phone or whatever it is

4425
02:30:05,120 --> 02:30:06,400
you have planned next.

4426
02:30:06,940 --> 02:30:09,620
Well, the drop in of the, of the

4427
02:30:09,620 --> 02:30:14,260
air conditioner item in the report is probably

4428
02:30:14,260 --> 02:30:14,960
significant.

4429
02:30:14,960 --> 02:30:15,980
It has to be.

4430
02:30:16,860 --> 02:30:17,900
Because you do it out of the blue.

4431
02:30:18,100 --> 02:30:19,520
I mean, once you're afraid to start your

4432
02:30:19,520 --> 02:30:22,060
car, that would have been more logical.

4433
02:30:22,440 --> 02:30:23,380
That's so old school.

4434
02:30:23,520 --> 02:30:24,960
That's so 1980s.

4435
02:30:25,360 --> 02:30:27,640
So they're afraid to turn their air conditioners

4436
02:30:27,640 --> 02:30:29,360
off, which of course then implies that they're

4437
02:30:29,360 --> 02:30:30,340
sweating to death.

4438
02:30:32,080 --> 02:30:34,300
Air fryers next, exploding air fryers.

4439
02:30:39,120 --> 02:30:41,820
What is the one exploding vapes?

4440
02:30:41,900 --> 02:30:42,300
Oh no.

4441
02:30:44,580 --> 02:30:45,820
Look, vapes.

4442
02:30:45,940 --> 02:30:46,740
That would be a good one.

4443
02:30:46,840 --> 02:30:47,940
You know, I don't know who that would

4444
02:30:47,940 --> 02:30:48,440
take out.

4445
02:30:48,900 --> 02:30:50,960
I'm just thinking what would take me out.

4446
02:30:51,720 --> 02:30:53,320
Oh, that's all you care about.

4447
02:30:53,540 --> 02:30:54,800
Yes, of course.

4448
02:30:55,760 --> 02:30:56,180
Speakers.

4449
02:30:56,880 --> 02:30:57,480
What do I got?

4450
02:30:58,200 --> 02:30:58,620
Mixers.

4451
02:30:59,000 --> 02:30:59,420
Yes.

4452
02:30:59,540 --> 02:31:01,780
You have smart speakers, smart speakers.

4453
02:31:01,900 --> 02:31:02,300
It could be.

4454
02:31:02,500 --> 02:31:02,960
I don't.

4455
02:31:03,360 --> 02:31:05,820
You, of course, I have nothing smart.

4456
02:31:05,980 --> 02:31:06,860
I'm not even smart.

4457
02:31:06,960 --> 02:31:08,780
You're all, you're also going to outlive us

4458
02:31:08,780 --> 02:31:11,440
all because you don't need me again.

4459
02:31:11,440 --> 02:31:13,600
You just say why, and then you answer

4460
02:31:13,600 --> 02:31:14,120
your own question.

4461
02:31:14,240 --> 02:31:15,760
I know I have to start working on

4462
02:31:15,760 --> 02:31:16,860
how to interview myself.

4463
02:31:17,060 --> 02:31:18,620
I just haven't gotten that down yet.

4464
02:31:18,820 --> 02:31:20,540
All right, everybody, let's get a little update.

4465
02:31:22,280 --> 02:31:23,940
Time for a bird flu update.

4466
02:31:24,220 --> 02:31:25,780
McCullough is back on the scene.

4467
02:31:26,860 --> 02:31:30,960
Yes, McCullough, who is now the opposition is

4468
02:31:30,960 --> 02:31:31,880
calling an op.

4469
02:31:32,700 --> 02:31:32,940
Really?

4470
02:31:33,740 --> 02:31:35,800
Yeah, he's like a bad guy.

4471
02:31:36,160 --> 02:31:38,300
He's just all bull crap, what he's saying.

4472
02:31:38,580 --> 02:31:40,980
And yeah, the farm is going after him

4473
02:31:40,980 --> 02:31:41,420
finally.

4474
02:31:41,760 --> 02:31:44,720
Well, that we will remind everybody that during

4475
02:31:44,720 --> 02:31:48,160
COVID, we were, we liked McCullough because he

4476
02:31:48,160 --> 02:31:50,740
has a reputation that no one could take

4477
02:31:50,740 --> 02:31:51,040
down.

4478
02:31:51,200 --> 02:31:52,980
No one could say anything about his medical

4479
02:31:52,980 --> 02:31:53,520
reputation.

4480
02:31:53,780 --> 02:31:56,160
And nobody could, could argue with him.

4481
02:31:56,260 --> 02:31:58,080
And he challenged everybody.

4482
02:31:58,080 --> 02:31:59,480
You wanted to be, you say this, you

4483
02:31:59,480 --> 02:32:01,600
say that, come on, let's talk about it.

4484
02:32:01,620 --> 02:32:02,760
We can have an open forum.

4485
02:32:02,820 --> 02:32:04,160
I'll talk, discuss these things.

4486
02:32:04,280 --> 02:32:05,560
No, they would not do it.

4487
02:32:05,560 --> 02:32:08,260
Nobody would take him on because he's got

4488
02:32:08,260 --> 02:32:10,180
all the facts and figures right in his

4489
02:32:10,180 --> 02:32:10,560
head.

4490
02:32:11,020 --> 02:32:14,640
And here's his latest about the H5N1 bird

4491
02:32:14,640 --> 02:32:14,900
flu.

4492
02:32:15,080 --> 02:32:18,300
Bird flu or H5N1 influence has been around

4493
02:32:18,300 --> 02:32:20,040
for over a hundred years.

4494
02:32:20,240 --> 02:32:22,640
Well-documented in the scientific literature in the

4495
02:32:22,640 --> 02:32:25,380
United States, the most recent outbreak, which is

4496
02:32:25,380 --> 02:32:26,920
now four years old.

4497
02:32:27,700 --> 02:32:30,800
we've published McCullough foundation is published with a

4498
02:32:30,800 --> 02:32:33,880
first author, Nick Kosher, an epidemiologist in the

4499
02:32:33,880 --> 02:32:38,100
journal, poultry, fisheries and wildlife sciences, peer reviewed

4500
02:32:38,100 --> 02:32:40,920
journal that the current strain of bird flu

4501
02:32:40,920 --> 02:32:44,420
is a product of gain of function research

4502
02:32:44,420 --> 02:32:48,380
done in the USDA poultry research laboratory in

4503
02:32:48,380 --> 02:32:49,560
Athens, Georgia.

4504
02:32:49,780 --> 02:32:52,580
So it is a man-made problem that

4505
02:32:52,580 --> 02:32:55,480
our farms are experiencing right now.

4506
02:32:55,600 --> 02:32:58,300
The stated goal of the USDA in doing

4507
02:32:58,300 --> 02:33:00,360
this research was simply to get it to

4508
02:33:00,360 --> 02:33:02,920
jump from chickens into mallard ducks.

4509
02:33:03,120 --> 02:33:05,140
And that way it could spread all over.

4510
02:33:05,880 --> 02:33:09,480
So it's, it's a bad line of thinking

4511
02:33:09,480 --> 02:33:12,120
to continue to do gain of function research.

4512
02:33:12,260 --> 02:33:14,120
And I hope under the new administration, one

4513
02:33:14,120 --> 02:33:16,980
of the very first steps taken by the

4514
02:33:16,980 --> 02:33:19,200
U S national institutes of health, the CDC

4515
02:33:19,200 --> 02:33:21,660
and the NIH would it be to do

4516
02:33:21,660 --> 02:33:24,000
an all out ban on gain of function

4517
02:33:24,000 --> 02:33:28,020
research, certainly in us labs and our funding

4518
02:33:28,020 --> 02:33:30,340
of labs outside the United States.

4519
02:33:30,340 --> 02:33:32,400
Because we know it's not just the government

4520
02:33:32,400 --> 02:33:35,200
that funds this research, but also Gates foundation,

4521
02:33:35,760 --> 02:33:40,800
many other pro vaccine foundations are, are ramping

4522
02:33:40,800 --> 02:33:43,340
up gain of function research, even in the

4523
02:33:43,340 --> 02:33:45,480
initial spending bill that the U S house

4524
02:33:45,480 --> 02:33:48,000
representatives had that Mike Johnson initially presented.

4525
02:33:48,160 --> 02:33:50,160
There were 12 more U S bio labs.

4526
02:33:50,900 --> 02:33:52,520
I love this guy.

4527
02:33:53,840 --> 02:33:55,600
And I would have to ask a question

4528
02:33:55,600 --> 02:33:55,860
here.

4529
02:33:55,860 --> 02:33:56,180
Yeah.

4530
02:33:56,180 --> 02:33:59,480
My understanding was that the reason Fauci sent

4531
02:33:59,480 --> 02:34:01,620
the money from that through via that one

4532
02:34:01,620 --> 02:34:05,240
company to China, Wuhan is because we already

4533
02:34:05,240 --> 02:34:07,120
banned the gain of function research.

4534
02:34:07,380 --> 02:34:08,740
When did the band get lifted?

4535
02:34:09,020 --> 02:34:11,820
That that, that is being done by, by

4536
02:34:11,820 --> 02:34:13,960
locals at USDA and elsewhere.

4537
02:34:14,180 --> 02:34:14,820
I don't know.

4538
02:34:15,100 --> 02:34:16,160
They may be, I mean, this is, he

4539
02:34:16,160 --> 02:34:17,380
doesn't answer this question.

4540
02:34:17,420 --> 02:34:18,300
He just talks about it.

4541
02:34:18,340 --> 02:34:19,000
It should be banned.

4542
02:34:19,080 --> 02:34:19,980
I thought it was bad.

4543
02:34:20,040 --> 02:34:20,840
I thought it was illegal.

4544
02:34:21,060 --> 02:34:23,860
This is all, this is all germ warfare.

4545
02:34:23,860 --> 02:34:26,560
That is actually not only banned, but it's

4546
02:34:26,560 --> 02:34:28,040
against the Geneva convention.

4547
02:34:28,180 --> 02:34:29,480
We're not supposed to be doing any of

4548
02:34:29,480 --> 02:34:29,640
this.

4549
02:34:29,720 --> 02:34:31,180
And how is that not brought up into

4550
02:34:31,180 --> 02:34:31,960
the conversation?

4551
02:34:32,180 --> 02:34:34,400
And who needs exploding air conditioners when you

4552
02:34:34,400 --> 02:34:35,260
got this stuff?

4553
02:34:38,650 --> 02:34:39,130
Hmm.

4554
02:34:39,370 --> 02:34:40,570
It's ludicrous.

4555
02:34:40,850 --> 02:34:41,030
Why?

4556
02:34:41,990 --> 02:34:42,470
Why?

4557
02:34:42,690 --> 02:34:43,170
I don't know.

4558
02:34:43,230 --> 02:34:43,690
Why?

4559
02:34:44,090 --> 02:34:44,570
Okay.

4560
02:34:44,710 --> 02:34:44,970
Okay.

4561
02:34:45,050 --> 02:34:45,330
Okay.

4562
02:34:45,570 --> 02:34:48,290
Just on the bird flu thing, because it

4563
02:34:48,290 --> 02:34:49,770
relates to raw milk.

4564
02:34:49,770 --> 02:34:57,230
We have an unbelievable amount of people, producers

4565
02:34:57,230 --> 02:35:01,490
who know a lot about the industry.

4566
02:35:02,290 --> 02:35:02,930
They are lit.

4567
02:35:03,010 --> 02:35:05,090
We have milk testers.

4568
02:35:05,110 --> 02:35:06,450
Yeah, we have milk.

4569
02:35:06,730 --> 02:35:09,170
People that are actually in the business of

4570
02:35:09,170 --> 02:35:11,950
testing raw milk are listening to this show

4571
02:35:11,950 --> 02:35:13,890
as the two of us speak and ask

4572
02:35:13,890 --> 02:35:15,070
ourselves questions.

4573
02:35:16,230 --> 02:35:18,630
And I put a couple of them into

4574
02:35:18,630 --> 02:35:20,310
the show notes so you can read them.

4575
02:35:20,370 --> 02:35:21,890
I'd like to highlight two.

4576
02:35:22,530 --> 02:35:24,570
Here are some reasons raw milk is a

4577
02:35:24,570 --> 02:35:25,930
threat to big milk.

4578
02:35:26,370 --> 02:35:28,430
Factory farms are much more likely to have

4579
02:35:28,430 --> 02:35:30,530
outbreaks that actually make milk dangerous.

4580
02:35:30,690 --> 02:35:33,150
A mass scale operation where one spoiled batch

4581
02:35:33,150 --> 02:35:35,190
is mixed with the rest, you're ruining a

4582
02:35:35,190 --> 02:35:35,850
lot more milk.

4583
02:35:35,990 --> 02:35:37,830
For smaller scale farms, this is not such

4584
02:35:37,830 --> 02:35:38,470
a large risk.

4585
02:35:38,910 --> 02:35:41,450
I believe pasteurization became required by law in

4586
02:35:41,450 --> 02:35:43,150
response to factory farming issues.

4587
02:35:43,150 --> 02:35:46,030
Additionally, pasteurization and testing are expensive.

4588
02:35:46,230 --> 02:35:48,630
Requiring pasteurization or testing makes it difficult for

4589
02:35:48,630 --> 02:35:50,410
new entrants to compete in the market.

4590
02:35:50,770 --> 02:35:52,570
It makes it easier for monopolists.

4591
02:35:52,710 --> 02:35:56,390
So of course any, what is this?

4592
02:35:57,150 --> 02:35:59,890
Any lobbying interest will want to fear monger

4593
02:35:59,890 --> 02:36:02,910
the public into wanting additional expensive steps out

4594
02:36:02,910 --> 02:36:03,250
of place.

4595
02:36:03,410 --> 02:36:06,070
So, I mean, there's a lot of information

4596
02:36:06,070 --> 02:36:09,250
we have about big dairy lobbies, but the

4597
02:36:09,250 --> 02:36:11,030
one that I thought was the most interesting

4598
02:36:11,030 --> 02:36:13,930
is where big milk itself came from.

4599
02:36:14,310 --> 02:36:16,730
And there are many versions of the story

4600
02:36:16,730 --> 02:36:22,490
because it relates to government cheese and government

4601
02:36:22,490 --> 02:36:23,090
cheese.

4602
02:36:23,270 --> 02:36:25,270
I mean, I've never had to deal with

4603
02:36:25,270 --> 02:36:28,670
government cheese, fortunately, because government cheese is given

4604
02:36:28,670 --> 02:36:30,290
to poor people in America.

4605
02:36:30,530 --> 02:36:33,510
But this one producer gave me a rundown

4606
02:36:33,510 --> 02:36:36,010
that I thought, well, it sounds credible.

4607
02:36:36,210 --> 02:36:38,570
And there's, there's again, there's other versions of

4608
02:36:38,570 --> 02:36:40,610
where the government cheese came from.

4609
02:36:40,610 --> 02:36:43,810
And we've still in 2016, 20, I think

4610
02:36:43,810 --> 02:36:46,190
20, 20, 18 still had a lot, like

4611
02:36:46,190 --> 02:36:48,670
a lot of government cheese and warehouses.

4612
02:36:48,950 --> 02:36:50,770
So I'm going to read this and then

4613
02:36:50,770 --> 02:36:53,690
you can, you can interrupt if you feel

4614
02:36:53,690 --> 02:36:54,170
appropriate.

4615
02:36:55,290 --> 02:36:58,450
During prohibition, many bars and previous liquor sellers

4616
02:36:58,450 --> 02:36:59,990
switched over to ice cream.

4617
02:37:00,350 --> 02:37:02,410
A night out on the town became you

4618
02:37:02,410 --> 02:37:03,790
and a bunch of your friends going out

4619
02:37:03,790 --> 02:37:04,450
for ice cream.

4620
02:37:04,730 --> 02:37:06,810
The kids raised this way were a fighting

4621
02:37:06,810 --> 02:37:08,750
age when world war II broke out because

4622
02:37:08,750 --> 02:37:09,230
of this.

4623
02:37:09,230 --> 02:37:11,630
Ice cream was the morale booster of choice

4624
02:37:11,630 --> 02:37:12,350
for the military.

4625
02:37:12,830 --> 02:37:14,850
So much so that there were multiple Naval

4626
02:37:14,850 --> 02:37:18,330
vessels, vessels solely dedicated to the production of

4627
02:37:18,330 --> 02:37:20,690
ice cream, traveling from Naval group to Naval

4628
02:37:20,690 --> 02:37:21,590
group in the Pacific.

4629
02:37:22,070 --> 02:37:24,270
The massive milk needs of the U S

4630
02:37:24,270 --> 02:37:26,170
government during the war led to the creation

4631
02:37:26,170 --> 02:37:27,150
of dairy farmers.

4632
02:37:27,310 --> 02:37:30,390
Until then it was economically infeasible for a

4633
02:37:30,390 --> 02:37:32,670
farmer to exclude exclusively produce milk.

4634
02:37:33,050 --> 02:37:35,830
After the war, the military was drastically downsized

4635
02:37:35,830 --> 02:37:37,750
and the government didn't need nearly as much

4636
02:37:37,750 --> 02:37:38,030
milk.

4637
02:37:38,030 --> 02:37:40,050
Instead of letting all this new dairy farming

4638
02:37:40,050 --> 02:37:42,890
industry collapse, the government decided to just keep

4639
02:37:42,890 --> 02:37:43,570
buying milk.

4640
02:37:43,870 --> 02:37:46,110
The easiest way to store milk longterm is

4641
02:37:46,110 --> 02:37:46,950
to make cheese.

4642
02:37:47,210 --> 02:37:50,070
So the government became a cheese making powerhouse.

4643
02:37:50,570 --> 02:37:53,330
Numerous underground caverns, mostly in the Midwest were

4644
02:37:53,330 --> 02:37:55,550
stocked with millions of pounds of cheese.

4645
02:37:55,990 --> 02:37:58,130
When Reagan took office, one of his priorities

4646
02:37:58,130 --> 02:38:00,290
was getting rid of waste and this milk

4647
02:38:00,290 --> 02:38:02,870
buying cheese making boondoggle came to light.

4648
02:38:03,090 --> 02:38:05,370
The initial announced plan was to toss all

4649
02:38:05,370 --> 02:38:07,470
that cheese into the ocean, but there was

4650
02:38:07,470 --> 02:38:08,330
public outcry.

4651
02:38:08,490 --> 02:38:09,490
We paid for that cheese.

4652
02:38:09,570 --> 02:38:10,570
We should get the cheese.

4653
02:38:10,970 --> 02:38:12,970
The federal government then used it as a

4654
02:38:12,970 --> 02:38:14,550
handout for low income people.

4655
02:38:14,950 --> 02:38:16,590
This is how government cheese was born.

4656
02:38:16,970 --> 02:38:18,850
The government also had to stop buying new

4657
02:38:18,850 --> 02:38:20,370
milk, but didn't want to just kill the

4658
02:38:20,370 --> 02:38:21,010
dairy industry.

4659
02:38:21,190 --> 02:38:24,090
So the national dairy council, a federal government

4660
02:38:24,090 --> 02:38:26,690
entity was born to drive private consumption of

4661
02:38:26,690 --> 02:38:26,970
milk.

4662
02:38:27,370 --> 02:38:29,610
All dairy farmers are required by law to

4663
02:38:29,610 --> 02:38:30,590
pay into the council.

4664
02:38:30,590 --> 02:38:33,030
And in turn, it produces ads and research

4665
02:38:33,030 --> 02:38:35,390
to further the cause of milk production.

4666
02:38:35,390 --> 02:38:37,890
This is where the research about milk creating

4667
02:38:37,890 --> 02:38:39,910
strong bones, as well as the got milk

4668
02:38:39,910 --> 02:38:41,650
ads came from in the nineties.

4669
02:38:42,870 --> 02:38:44,330
What do you think of that story?

4670
02:38:45,090 --> 02:38:49,250
Well, the story chronologically doesn't make some sense,

4671
02:38:49,430 --> 02:38:51,570
but it, but it sounds plausible.

4672
02:38:51,730 --> 02:38:52,790
I agree with you.

4673
02:38:52,890 --> 02:38:55,370
It sounds plausible.

4674
02:38:55,450 --> 02:38:56,670
I'd have to look into this.

4675
02:38:56,830 --> 02:38:58,530
And I like to see the chronology because

4676
02:38:58,530 --> 02:39:01,190
the way he's got the prohibition was broken

4677
02:39:01,190 --> 02:39:04,610
long before world war two broke out.

4678
02:39:04,610 --> 02:39:07,310
But there was, there was this moment in

4679
02:39:07,310 --> 02:39:09,470
history where the, where the, and I think

4680
02:39:09,470 --> 02:39:13,170
it was during this era where the soda

4681
02:39:13,170 --> 02:39:16,430
fountain became a thing and it was cropped

4682
02:39:16,430 --> 02:39:18,710
and they, but it tended to be when

4683
02:39:18,710 --> 02:39:20,830
I was a kid, we had them and

4684
02:39:20,830 --> 02:39:24,690
they tended to be out shoots of creameries,

4685
02:39:24,830 --> 02:39:26,970
which were independent dairies, which are all over

4686
02:39:26,970 --> 02:39:30,030
the place in the early part of the

4687
02:39:30,030 --> 02:39:32,310
century or the mid century of last century.

4688
02:39:32,990 --> 02:39:33,850
They were everywhere.

4689
02:39:33,850 --> 02:39:35,110
I mean, that's why I talked about this

4690
02:39:35,110 --> 02:39:36,310
already about the dairies.

4691
02:39:36,490 --> 02:39:39,310
I remember two or three of them independence

4692
02:39:39,310 --> 02:39:42,470
and during world war or pre world war

4693
02:39:42,470 --> 02:39:45,810
two, the milk delivery system in this country

4694
02:39:45,810 --> 02:39:49,770
was extremely elaborate with the milk trucks that

4695
02:39:49,770 --> 02:39:52,170
would deliver bottled milk all over the place.

4696
02:39:52,250 --> 02:39:54,750
And this was, this was outlined in many

4697
02:39:54,750 --> 02:39:56,690
movies that you could see back in the

4698
02:39:56,690 --> 02:39:57,630
early thirties.

4699
02:39:57,730 --> 02:40:00,270
So it wasn't as though the milk was

4700
02:40:00,270 --> 02:40:02,650
something that just cropped up out of the

4701
02:40:02,650 --> 02:40:05,230
blue and started getting promoted in after world

4702
02:40:05,230 --> 02:40:05,570
war two.

4703
02:40:05,790 --> 02:40:07,790
So I have a problem with that part

4704
02:40:07,790 --> 02:40:08,570
of the story.

4705
02:40:09,090 --> 02:40:12,950
Well, history.com corroborates most of the story,

4706
02:40:13,050 --> 02:40:16,070
not so much the naval part, but what's

4707
02:40:16,070 --> 02:40:18,290
interesting on the history.com story at the

4708
02:40:18,290 --> 02:40:20,330
end, it says now known as government cheese,

4709
02:40:20,490 --> 02:40:23,290
the pungent smelling and according to some, by

4710
02:40:23,290 --> 02:40:25,370
the way, I'm not arguing against the government

4711
02:40:25,370 --> 02:40:26,550
cheese part of the story.

4712
02:40:26,570 --> 02:40:27,910
I'm arguing about the milk.

4713
02:40:28,710 --> 02:40:30,290
But I just want to read this part

4714
02:40:30,290 --> 02:40:32,350
because it leads into something else.

4715
02:40:32,350 --> 02:40:36,210
Uh, the government cheese was ultimately distributed to

4716
02:40:36,210 --> 02:40:38,430
the tune of 300 million pounds.

4717
02:40:38,870 --> 02:40:41,370
The cheese became associated with hard times while

4718
02:40:41,370 --> 02:40:44,750
some were grateful, uh, and mentioned to historians

4719
02:40:44,750 --> 02:40:47,010
says others hated the ways in which the

4720
02:40:47,010 --> 02:40:49,830
cheese advertised their socioeconomic status.

4721
02:40:49,930 --> 02:40:53,610
Today, some people recall the cheese fondly food

4722
02:40:53,610 --> 02:40:56,050
writer, Tracy Lynn Lloyd recalls how it's weird

4723
02:40:56,050 --> 02:40:59,390
texture made it good only for macaroni and

4724
02:40:59,390 --> 02:41:01,770
cheese or grilled cheese sandwiches.

4725
02:41:01,770 --> 02:41:04,370
This is why we have Mac and cheese.

4726
02:41:05,010 --> 02:41:07,290
You slaves can get used to Mac and

4727
02:41:07,290 --> 02:41:07,510
cheese.

4728
02:41:09,490 --> 02:41:12,450
Macaroni and cheese cheddar melted together.

4729
02:41:12,690 --> 02:41:14,930
Mac and cheese, Mac and cheese, Mac and

4730
02:41:14,930 --> 02:41:15,190
cheese.

4731
02:41:15,570 --> 02:41:16,510
That's it, baby.

4732
02:41:16,770 --> 02:41:18,090
That's what, that's where it came from.

4733
02:41:18,190 --> 02:41:21,190
Mac and cheese, whole industry created cheap cheddar,

4734
02:41:21,550 --> 02:41:23,510
nasty crap stored in caves.

4735
02:41:24,490 --> 02:41:25,030
Government cheese.

4736
02:41:25,910 --> 02:41:27,870
I like to store it in caves.

4737
02:41:29,830 --> 02:41:30,870
It's great.

4738
02:41:30,870 --> 02:41:32,470
All right.

4739
02:41:32,550 --> 02:41:34,390
I have one, uh, one more story here

4740
02:41:34,390 --> 02:41:36,490
of the pharma variety, which is important because

4741
02:41:36,490 --> 02:41:37,550
there's new information.

4742
02:41:37,670 --> 02:41:38,930
It was that big in these weight loss

4743
02:41:38,930 --> 02:41:39,210
drugs.

4744
02:41:39,350 --> 02:41:40,570
That was the story of 2024.

4745
02:41:40,570 --> 02:41:42,890
And it feels like that's going straight into

4746
02:41:42,890 --> 02:41:43,330
2025.

4747
02:41:43,450 --> 02:41:43,990
Yeah.

4748
02:41:43,990 --> 02:41:46,410
The story is absolutely going to continue into

4749
02:41:46,410 --> 02:41:46,910
2025.

4750
02:41:46,910 --> 02:41:48,530
If you take a look at these stats,

4751
02:41:48,530 --> 02:41:51,290
there has been a 400% increase in

4752
02:41:51,290 --> 02:41:55,630
prescriptions since 2019 one in eight adults has

4753
02:41:55,630 --> 02:41:57,670
tried a GLP one.

4754
02:41:57,670 --> 02:42:00,630
And by 2030, it is projected to be

4755
02:42:00,630 --> 02:42:03,170
a $100 billion industry.

4756
02:42:03,750 --> 02:42:06,050
As many experts have said, GLP ones are

4757
02:42:06,050 --> 02:42:08,750
basically having a stat moment, but guess what?

4758
02:42:08,990 --> 02:42:10,330
As we pointed out a couple of weeks

4759
02:42:10,330 --> 02:42:13,270
ago, more Americans are eligible for these medications.

4760
02:42:13,430 --> 02:42:15,370
There's GLP ones than they are even to

4761
02:42:15,370 --> 02:42:15,650
stat.

4762
02:42:15,710 --> 02:42:17,830
And so huge, huge, huge.

4763
02:42:17,850 --> 02:42:18,370
And we'll remain.

4764
02:42:18,490 --> 02:42:19,950
So in the next year, a big part

4765
02:42:19,950 --> 02:42:21,350
is the expense, which I know a lot

4766
02:42:21,350 --> 02:42:23,130
of folks are talking about, but let's talk.

4767
02:42:23,230 --> 02:42:25,450
They can be prescribed for not just diabetes,

4768
02:42:25,590 --> 02:42:26,630
not just weight loss.

4769
02:42:26,730 --> 02:42:28,930
Now they're showing other kinds of effects.

4770
02:42:28,930 --> 02:42:32,450
In addition to weight loss and diabetes, the

4771
02:42:32,450 --> 02:42:34,530
first big news that hit in the last

4772
02:42:34,530 --> 02:42:38,410
year was their amazing benefit for cardiovascular risk

4773
02:42:38,410 --> 02:42:38,950
reduction.

4774
02:42:39,350 --> 02:42:41,950
But there are currently about a hundred studies

4775
02:42:41,950 --> 02:42:44,970
that are either being, being conducted or have

4776
02:42:44,970 --> 02:42:47,610
been completed on a whole host of different

4777
02:42:47,610 --> 02:42:51,070
body parts, the kidney, the liver arthritis, even

4778
02:42:51,070 --> 02:42:52,730
polycystic ovarian syndrome.

4779
02:42:53,030 --> 02:42:54,250
If you think about it this way for

4780
02:42:54,250 --> 02:42:56,730
a lot of our internal organs, obesity is

4781
02:42:56,730 --> 02:42:59,350
the biggest driver of their worst diseases.

4782
02:42:59,650 --> 02:43:02,670
And so we're going to see amazing, amazing

4783
02:43:02,670 --> 02:43:05,650
and impactful effects on many other body parts,

4784
02:43:05,930 --> 02:43:08,150
not just weight and diabetes and heart disease.

4785
02:43:08,310 --> 02:43:08,470
Yeah.

4786
02:43:08,510 --> 02:43:09,790
It's a miracle drug.

4787
02:43:10,270 --> 02:43:11,570
What a believable story.

4788
02:43:11,670 --> 02:43:13,310
That was just not quite guy where your,

4789
02:43:13,370 --> 02:43:15,590
your prediction is leading, but it's obvious it's

4790
02:43:15,590 --> 02:43:16,170
where it's headed.

4791
02:43:16,490 --> 02:43:20,790
So Atlantic did a whole piece and it's

4792
02:43:20,790 --> 02:43:23,870
titled the science behind those Zempik was wrong.

4793
02:43:23,870 --> 02:43:27,090
The weight loss effects of GLP one drugs

4794
02:43:27,090 --> 02:43:28,790
have little to do with the gut.

4795
02:43:29,290 --> 02:43:34,670
In summary, your gut makes GLP one and

4796
02:43:34,670 --> 02:43:36,690
the half-life of the GLP one that

4797
02:43:36,690 --> 02:43:39,550
your gut makes is, is, you know, like

4798
02:43:39,550 --> 02:43:40,430
a couple hours.

4799
02:43:40,650 --> 02:43:46,770
So what these these semi-glutide drugs do

4800
02:43:46,770 --> 02:43:51,450
is they, it's like a thousand times the

4801
02:43:51,450 --> 02:43:53,750
amount of GLP one that you're injecting.

4802
02:43:53,750 --> 02:43:55,850
And the half-life of that is several

4803
02:43:55,850 --> 02:43:58,670
days, but it doesn't really do anything to

4804
02:43:58,670 --> 02:43:59,250
your body.

4805
02:43:59,490 --> 02:44:02,110
All of them, according to this article affect

4806
02:44:02,110 --> 02:44:02,950
your brain.

4807
02:44:03,170 --> 02:44:05,890
It is in fact, a brain drug and

4808
02:44:05,890 --> 02:44:06,870
nothing else.

4809
02:44:07,630 --> 02:44:10,650
And that's why in rodents, they also saw

4810
02:44:10,650 --> 02:44:12,390
that, you know, rodents didn't want any more

4811
02:44:12,390 --> 02:44:15,870
Coke or alcohol because they have addicted rats,

4812
02:44:15,990 --> 02:44:16,330
of course.

4813
02:44:17,030 --> 02:44:20,010
And no one, the scientists don't actually know

4814
02:44:20,010 --> 02:44:20,970
how it works.

4815
02:44:20,970 --> 02:44:24,090
Just like everything else.

4816
02:44:24,270 --> 02:44:25,970
Just, yeah, just like the antidepressants.

4817
02:44:26,050 --> 02:44:30,050
They don't actually know why it works and

4818
02:44:30,050 --> 02:44:32,550
they really don't know the long-term effects

4819
02:44:32,550 --> 02:44:35,150
and it's, and it's passing the blood brain

4820
02:44:35,150 --> 02:44:35,710
barrier.

4821
02:44:36,270 --> 02:44:38,310
This is not a good product.

4822
02:44:39,810 --> 02:44:41,150
Scientists are perplexed.

4823
02:44:41,750 --> 02:44:44,430
It says, are you kidding me?

4824
02:44:46,070 --> 02:44:49,210
So this, you know, and they want this

4825
02:44:49,210 --> 02:44:50,310
stuff in Medicare.

4826
02:44:50,310 --> 02:44:53,470
I mean, you think the COVID Vax was

4827
02:44:53,470 --> 02:44:53,750
bad.

4828
02:44:53,850 --> 02:44:55,670
This could, this could be the worst.

4829
02:44:57,130 --> 02:44:59,070
You wouldn't, they have no idea how it

4830
02:44:59,070 --> 02:44:59,350
works.

4831
02:44:59,410 --> 02:45:01,250
They have no idea what the real long

4832
02:45:01,250 --> 02:45:01,430
-term.

4833
02:45:01,630 --> 02:45:03,570
It would help if they had some long

4834
02:45:03,570 --> 02:45:05,230
-term studies, which they don't have.

4835
02:45:05,370 --> 02:45:05,570
Nope.

4836
02:45:06,410 --> 02:45:08,070
And it would, it would be even more

4837
02:45:08,070 --> 02:45:10,970
helpful if they could actually determine how it

4838
02:45:10,970 --> 02:45:11,310
worked.

4839
02:45:11,370 --> 02:45:13,130
This is the, you'll see this on a

4840
02:45:13,130 --> 02:45:13,890
lot of drugs.

4841
02:45:13,950 --> 02:45:15,830
In fact, is it on the drug?

4842
02:45:15,850 --> 02:45:16,030
Yes.

4843
02:45:16,110 --> 02:45:17,730
Sometimes it'll be a little, if somebody sent

4844
02:45:17,730 --> 02:45:19,070
a couple of these to me, it is

4845
02:45:19,070 --> 02:45:19,770
right at the bottom.

4846
02:45:19,930 --> 02:45:21,530
It says very in small print.

4847
02:45:21,690 --> 02:45:24,290
This is scientists do not understand how this

4848
02:45:24,290 --> 02:45:25,190
mechanism works.

4849
02:45:25,990 --> 02:45:27,150
So they're giving it to you.

4850
02:45:27,410 --> 02:45:30,570
It was on, it's on the commercial on

4851
02:45:30,570 --> 02:45:31,010
the ad.

4852
02:45:31,310 --> 02:45:33,410
Scientists don't actually know how this stuff works,

4853
02:45:33,430 --> 02:45:35,010
but we're selling it to you anyway.

4854
02:45:35,810 --> 02:45:36,610
It's insane.

4855
02:45:41,020 --> 02:45:42,520
Do we need to do anything on H

4856
02:45:42,520 --> 02:45:44,900
one B other than just be racist about

4857
02:45:44,900 --> 02:45:45,140
it?

4858
02:45:45,260 --> 02:45:46,920
But I, I have a, I do have

4859
02:45:46,920 --> 02:45:49,600
a, a membranes clip, some stuff from the

4860
02:45:49,600 --> 02:45:52,140
past that celebrate the new year.

4861
02:45:52,260 --> 02:45:52,880
No good.

4862
02:45:53,160 --> 02:45:54,680
Then I'm going to, I decided I, the

4863
02:45:54,680 --> 02:45:56,780
clips I have, did the history clips.

4864
02:45:57,000 --> 02:46:01,760
I decided that the reason that, uh, well,

4865
02:46:01,800 --> 02:46:03,580
what I'm going to miss, I thought, you

4866
02:46:03,580 --> 02:46:04,780
know, what, what, what am I going to

4867
02:46:04,780 --> 02:46:06,100
miss from 2024?

4868
02:46:06,480 --> 02:46:09,560
You mean it won 2024 and, and, and

4869
02:46:09,560 --> 02:46:11,620
before, even before 20, what changed and what's

4870
02:46:11,620 --> 02:46:13,100
going to change that I'm going to miss.

4871
02:46:13,140 --> 02:46:14,960
And I decided it's Biden.

4872
02:46:15,100 --> 02:46:16,360
I'm going to miss sock hops.

4873
02:46:16,540 --> 02:46:17,680
That's what I'm going to miss.

4874
02:46:17,680 --> 02:46:20,360
Well, sock hops are been mission had been

4875
02:46:20,360 --> 02:46:21,300
missed a long time ago.

4876
02:46:21,520 --> 02:46:23,320
So I have, I'm going to miss Biden.

4877
02:46:23,420 --> 02:46:24,200
That's what you're telling me.

4878
02:46:24,240 --> 02:46:24,980
You're going to miss Biden.

4879
02:46:25,100 --> 02:46:25,680
Don't you think?

4880
02:46:25,740 --> 02:46:26,420
Listen to that.

4881
02:46:26,500 --> 02:46:27,600
I got a couple of Biden clips.

4882
02:46:27,800 --> 02:46:28,080
Okay.

4883
02:46:29,140 --> 02:46:30,140
I got Biden.

4884
02:46:30,240 --> 02:46:32,580
I got two medleys, which is Biden just

4885
02:46:32,580 --> 02:46:33,080
talking.

4886
02:46:33,180 --> 02:46:35,640
And then I have Tucker Carlson's clip about

4887
02:46:35,640 --> 02:46:39,200
Biden taking pills, which is less interesting, but

4888
02:46:39,200 --> 02:46:42,600
let's start with Biden at the United nations

4889
02:46:42,600 --> 02:46:43,800
now together.

4890
02:46:44,060 --> 02:46:44,460
Climactic.

4891
02:46:46,280 --> 02:46:48,320
You're mingled with great pain.

4892
02:46:48,500 --> 02:46:50,880
We've lost so much in this devastating, this

4893
02:46:50,880 --> 02:46:55,320
devastating pandemic emergence of new technologies and global

4894
02:46:55,320 --> 02:46:58,540
health and, and, and a global health threat

4895
02:46:58,540 --> 02:47:02,320
council council for global COVID response, the global

4896
02:47:02,320 --> 02:47:03,220
COVID response.

4897
02:47:03,420 --> 02:47:04,880
Was he in the toilet at the UN

4898
02:47:04,880 --> 02:47:06,640
or where was he when this was recorded?

4899
02:47:06,820 --> 02:47:07,420
Bad micing.

4900
02:47:07,580 --> 02:47:09,540
I went back in it, vaccinating the world

4901
02:47:09,540 --> 02:47:13,680
and building back better from the borderless climate

4902
02:47:13,680 --> 02:47:17,220
crisis from the United States and other from

4903
02:47:17,220 --> 02:47:21,960
other donors working with companies, countries, technologies, and

4904
02:47:21,960 --> 02:47:23,700
reduce the rest, the risk.

4905
02:47:23,980 --> 02:47:26,860
Similarly, we know the bitter string of terrorism.

4906
02:47:27,480 --> 02:47:29,420
The bitter sting of terrorism is real.

4907
02:47:29,800 --> 02:47:31,740
The United States is committing to you, committed

4908
02:47:31,740 --> 02:47:32,820
to using our resources.

4909
02:47:33,220 --> 02:47:35,840
When the earthquake strikes, we're fighting between warm,

4910
02:47:36,440 --> 02:47:40,740
warring parties, heroic, horrific violence, and a belief

4911
02:47:40,740 --> 02:47:42,160
in the universe.

4912
02:47:42,160 --> 02:47:44,180
When it occurs in where, whether it occurs,

4913
02:47:45,760 --> 02:47:52,740
LGBTQI, the authoritarianism in the world, proud Moldovans

4914
02:47:52,740 --> 02:47:57,060
built rope now together, climactic climate change from

4915
02:47:57,060 --> 02:47:57,980
COVID to climate.

4916
02:47:58,480 --> 02:48:00,940
We, you and I, God bless you all.

4917
02:48:02,240 --> 02:48:02,720
Okay.

4918
02:48:03,560 --> 02:48:05,400
Well, I'm not going to miss that clip.

4919
02:48:05,740 --> 02:48:06,520
Oh, come on.

4920
02:48:06,520 --> 02:48:07,440
You're going to miss Biden.

4921
02:48:07,600 --> 02:48:09,980
Here's the, here's the second Biden medley.

4922
02:48:10,020 --> 02:48:13,300
And this is from, this Biden medley one.

4923
02:48:13,540 --> 02:48:17,320
Policy and science and, and, and, and science

4924
02:48:17,320 --> 02:48:20,460
and, and society tricking with the early computer

4925
02:48:20,460 --> 02:48:23,520
products, computing products.

4926
02:48:26,980 --> 02:48:29,780
And when I wrote that down, I thought

4927
02:48:29,780 --> 02:48:32,480
to myself, I mean, how many kids, you

4928
02:48:32,480 --> 02:48:34,800
know, anyway, as co-chair of the president's

4929
02:48:34,800 --> 02:48:36,940
council of advisors in science and technology, I

4930
02:48:36,940 --> 02:48:39,120
appoint Dr. Francis Arnold.

4931
02:48:39,120 --> 02:48:42,300
Growing up in coal country, not far from

4932
02:48:42,300 --> 02:48:46,780
heaven, Scranton, Pennsylvania and carbon County in Pennsylvania,

4933
02:48:47,400 --> 02:48:49,640
about 50 miles South where I was a

4934
02:48:49,640 --> 02:48:49,840
kid.

4935
02:48:50,300 --> 02:48:52,540
She dreamed of exploring outer space.

4936
02:48:53,580 --> 02:48:54,660
I could have told her.

4937
02:48:54,700 --> 02:48:56,540
She just go to green region, Scranton and

4938
02:48:56,540 --> 02:48:57,620
she'd find where it was.

4939
02:48:58,080 --> 02:49:00,120
I shouldn't be so flippant, but I'm so

4940
02:49:00,120 --> 02:49:01,300
excited about these folks.

4941
02:49:04,430 --> 02:49:04,950
Yeah.

4942
02:49:05,150 --> 02:49:05,670
Okay.

4943
02:49:05,930 --> 02:49:07,610
No, I won't miss that either.

4944
02:49:09,030 --> 02:49:10,070
I will.

4945
02:49:10,190 --> 02:49:11,530
No, I'm not going to miss that.

4946
02:49:12,430 --> 02:49:12,530
Yeah.

4947
02:49:13,950 --> 02:49:15,130
You have another one.

4948
02:49:15,590 --> 02:49:17,930
Well, I have Tucker Carlson talking about the

4949
02:49:17,930 --> 02:49:18,170
data.

4950
02:49:18,350 --> 02:49:20,310
We forgot about this and it was never

4951
02:49:20,310 --> 02:49:21,470
confirmed or denied.

4952
02:49:21,930 --> 02:49:23,350
And it was just a kind of a

4953
02:49:23,350 --> 02:49:23,970
crazy thing.

4954
02:49:24,010 --> 02:49:26,070
He went on and on about, how about

4955
02:49:26,070 --> 02:49:26,370
this?

4956
02:49:26,410 --> 02:49:28,010
If you want to miss Joe Biden, you

4957
02:49:28,010 --> 02:49:29,070
want to miss him like this.

4958
02:49:29,470 --> 02:49:30,470
Poisoning, poisoning.

4959
02:49:30,810 --> 02:49:33,170
COVID has taken this year, just since the

4960
02:49:33,170 --> 02:49:36,270
outbreak has taken more than 100 years.

4961
02:49:36,270 --> 02:49:37,930
This is a medley.

4962
02:49:38,850 --> 02:49:40,790
Think about it.

4963
02:49:41,150 --> 02:49:44,690
Corn pop was a bad dude.

4964
02:49:44,910 --> 02:49:46,870
That's what you want to remember Joe Biden

4965
02:49:46,870 --> 02:49:47,190
for.

4966
02:49:47,210 --> 02:49:48,650
Except for the music bed.

4967
02:49:48,890 --> 02:49:50,770
Corn pop was a bad dude.

4968
02:49:50,910 --> 02:49:52,150
That's what you want to remember.

4969
02:49:52,330 --> 02:49:53,510
He was a bad dude.

4970
02:49:53,750 --> 02:49:54,890
I got him with a chain.

4971
02:49:57,450 --> 02:49:58,410
I'll miss him for that.

4972
02:49:59,770 --> 02:50:02,490
Well, play the Tucker thing and then we

4973
02:50:02,490 --> 02:50:02,870
can go.

4974
02:50:03,230 --> 02:50:03,550
Really?

4975
02:50:03,830 --> 02:50:04,170
Okay.

4976
02:50:04,450 --> 02:50:04,690
Tucker.

4977
02:50:04,690 --> 02:50:05,450
It's good.

4978
02:50:05,450 --> 02:50:06,330
Joe Biden.

4979
02:50:06,470 --> 02:50:08,430
Anyone who knew Joe Biden had seen before

4980
02:50:08,430 --> 02:50:09,450
he completely changed.

4981
02:50:09,830 --> 02:50:11,530
This was clearly cognitive decline.

4982
02:50:11,610 --> 02:50:13,150
This was dementia, obviously.

4983
02:50:13,830 --> 02:50:16,570
So we drew a conclusion that now sounds

4984
02:50:16,570 --> 02:50:18,750
ridiculous, but it seemed logical at the time.

4985
02:50:18,830 --> 02:50:20,310
This guy can't be the democratic nominee.

4986
02:50:20,390 --> 02:50:21,670
He can barely speak.

4987
02:50:22,070 --> 02:50:23,310
How did he manage to get through the

4988
02:50:23,310 --> 02:50:23,730
campaign?

4989
02:50:23,970 --> 02:50:26,250
Well, it turned out we learned later his

4990
02:50:26,250 --> 02:50:28,770
staff supervised by Dr. Jill.

4991
02:50:28,830 --> 02:50:32,610
His wife was giving him pills before every

4992
02:50:32,610 --> 02:50:34,850
public appearance, checking the time and at a

4993
02:50:34,850 --> 02:50:37,310
certain hour, giving him a dose of something.

4994
02:50:37,410 --> 02:50:37,970
Now, it's not a guest.

4995
02:50:38,050 --> 02:50:38,710
We're not making that up.

4996
02:50:38,930 --> 02:50:41,150
We spoken directly to someone who was there

4997
02:50:41,150 --> 02:50:43,550
and saw it happen multiple times.

4998
02:50:44,230 --> 02:50:46,830
Now, before taking the medication, this person said

4999
02:50:46,830 --> 02:50:49,190
Biden was quote, like a small child.

5000
02:50:49,330 --> 02:50:50,870
You could not communicate with him.

5001
02:50:51,230 --> 02:50:53,630
He changed completely because he was on drugs

5002
02:50:53,630 --> 02:50:55,390
and he clearly still is on drugs.

5003
02:50:55,430 --> 02:50:56,510
No one's pushing to know what those drugs

5004
02:50:56,510 --> 02:50:56,650
are.

5005
02:50:56,690 --> 02:50:57,230
We should know.

5006
02:50:57,870 --> 02:51:00,890
But the point is Joe Biden's dementia was

5007
02:51:00,890 --> 02:51:03,650
perfectly obvious to everyone around him more than

5008
02:51:03,650 --> 02:51:04,830
three years ago.

5009
02:51:05,170 --> 02:51:06,450
You know what I'm going to miss?

5010
02:51:07,170 --> 02:51:08,930
I'm going to miss that daddy, long legs,

5011
02:51:09,050 --> 02:51:09,790
that fake Biden.

5012
02:51:09,890 --> 02:51:10,890
I'm going to miss that dude.

5013
02:51:10,950 --> 02:51:12,350
I'm going to miss that dude running from

5014
02:51:12,350 --> 02:51:12,990
the helicopter.

5015
02:51:13,150 --> 02:51:14,270
That's who I'm going to miss.

5016
02:51:14,650 --> 02:51:16,690
I'm going to show my support by donating

5017
02:51:16,690 --> 02:51:17,550
to no agenda.

5018
02:51:17,730 --> 02:51:19,650
Imagine all the people who could do that.

5019
02:51:19,850 --> 02:51:20,170
Oh yeah.

5020
02:51:20,250 --> 02:51:20,890
That'd be fun.

5021
02:51:27,890 --> 02:51:29,850
Plenty more show coming up for you with

5022
02:51:29,850 --> 02:51:30,730
end of show mixes.

5023
02:51:30,730 --> 02:51:33,610
We've got some very nice meetup reports, a

5024
02:51:33,610 --> 02:51:34,470
short meetup list.

5025
02:51:34,690 --> 02:51:37,350
And we have, of course, John's tip of

5026
02:51:37,350 --> 02:51:37,650
the day.

5027
02:51:37,770 --> 02:51:39,810
Why would you not stay around for that?

5028
02:51:39,890 --> 02:51:41,570
And first we're going to thank the rest

5029
02:51:41,570 --> 02:51:44,390
of our producers who donated $50 and above.

5030
02:51:44,990 --> 02:51:45,290
Yeah.

5031
02:51:45,350 --> 02:51:48,030
Starting with Eric Henry in Maitland, Florida, $105

5032
02:51:48,030 --> 02:51:49,290
and 35 cents.

5033
02:51:50,150 --> 02:51:52,350
And then Baron Latican, our buddy in Houston,

5034
02:51:52,550 --> 02:51:53,670
Texas, a hundred dollars.

5035
02:51:53,850 --> 02:51:56,710
He's probably knows that guy Francisco in Costa

5036
02:51:56,710 --> 02:51:58,490
Rica, 100.

5037
02:51:58,490 --> 02:51:59,970
He needs a de-douching.

5038
02:52:01,470 --> 02:52:03,510
You've been de-douched.

5039
02:52:05,150 --> 02:52:07,010
Steven Reich, T.

5040
02:52:07,150 --> 02:52:10,770
Reich, I think it's Port Sydney, Ontario.

5041
02:52:11,590 --> 02:52:12,670
One hundred.

5042
02:52:12,770 --> 02:52:14,590
Oh, it's pronounced reach.

5043
02:52:16,310 --> 02:52:17,290
A hundred dollars.

5044
02:52:17,390 --> 02:52:18,370
He wants a de-douching.

02:58:53,240 --> 02:58:54,560
off to you as soon as possible.

5223
02:58:54,940 --> 02:58:57,120
First day and nights of twenty twenty five.

5224
02:58:57,280 --> 02:58:58,660
Welcome to the roundtable.

5225
02:59:06,800 --> 02:59:09,620
And we have a couple of meetup reports.

5226
02:59:09,740 --> 02:59:12,300
The first one is from Fort Wayne, December.

5227
02:59:12,360 --> 02:59:14,120
I think this took place on the 24th.

5228
02:59:14,420 --> 02:59:16,160
Adam and John, this is Shannon co-hosting

5229
02:59:16,160 --> 02:59:16,620
Fort Wayne.

5230
02:59:16,840 --> 02:59:19,220
Had a good turnout and heard those drones

5231
02:59:19,220 --> 02:59:21,140
in New Jersey are owned by the Elohim

5232
02:59:21,140 --> 02:59:22,360
and they had a bumper sticker said this

5233
02:59:22,360 --> 02:59:24,240
is the no agenda is the best podcast

5234
02:59:24,240 --> 02:59:24,700
in the universe.

5235
02:59:25,100 --> 02:59:26,780
Dame Trinity in Fort Wayne this time.

5236
02:59:26,860 --> 02:59:28,100
Having a great time as always.

5237
02:59:28,440 --> 02:59:29,220
Thank you for your courage.

5238
02:59:29,600 --> 02:59:31,360
Hi, it's Merry Christmas.

5239
02:59:31,680 --> 02:59:32,640
This is Jared.

5240
02:59:32,960 --> 02:59:34,100
Happy New Year's.

5241
02:59:34,220 --> 02:59:36,040
It's Mike in the morning in the morning,

5242
02:59:36,140 --> 02:59:36,240
too.

5243
02:59:36,280 --> 02:59:38,360
And of course, these no agenda meetups can

5244
02:59:38,360 --> 02:59:40,300
be found at no agenda meetups dot com.

5245
02:59:40,420 --> 02:59:42,340
This is where our producers get together.

5246
02:59:42,380 --> 02:59:44,400
It's producer organized and it's always a party.

5247
02:59:44,440 --> 02:59:45,100
It's a good time.

5248
02:59:45,200 --> 02:59:47,260
These are your first responders in an emergency

5249
02:59:47,260 --> 02:59:49,440
because connection gives protection.

5250
02:59:49,720 --> 02:59:52,860
And that's what everyone found in Egan, Minnesota,

5251
02:59:52,940 --> 02:59:55,720
where Steve hosted the I like pizza meetup.

5252
02:59:55,920 --> 02:59:56,760
I like pizza.

5253
02:59:56,760 --> 02:59:57,940
I like it.

5254
02:59:58,360 --> 03:00:00,400
In the morning, it's the baron of DNA,

5255
03:00:00,520 --> 03:00:03,860

5256
03:00:03,860 --> 03:00:05,600
meetup in Egan, Minnesota.

5257
03:00:06,060 --> 03:00:07,300
Going to pass the phone around.

5258
03:00:07,800 --> 03:00:09,100
Hey, John and Adam, this is the right

5259
03:00:09,100 --> 03:00:11,880

5261
03:00:14,100 --> 03:00:15,080
Hey, guys, this is Jerry.

5262
03:00:15,600 --> 03:00:17,480
Came for the beer and to find out

5263
03:00:17,480 --> 03:00:18,260
who they are.

5264
03:00:18,560 --> 03:00:19,600
This is Danger Ranger.

5265
03:00:20,000 --> 03:00:21,160
Connection is protection.

5266
03:00:21,660 --> 03:00:23,800
In the morning, this is Caitlin where the

5267
03:00:23,800 --> 03:00:25,840
C stands for Caitlin.

5268
03:00:26,040 --> 03:00:26,920
Oops, too many beers.

5269
03:00:27,180 --> 03:00:28,440
And I'm future Dave.

5270
03:00:28,560 --> 03:00:30,960

Minnesota Nuts.

5274

03:00:41,940 --> 03:00:43,200
This is Larry in the morning.

03:00:43,540 --> 03:00:44,080
Hi, this is Joe.

5278
03:00:44,300 --> 03:00:44,440
How are you doing?

5279
03:00:44,680 --> 03:00:45,320
I'm a douchebag.

5280
03:00:46,060 --> 03:00:46,580
Douchebag.

5281
03:00:49,420 --> 03:00:50,160
That's a wrap.

5282
03:00:50,320 --> 03:00:53,160
And just remember, plane's good, train's bad.

5283
03:00:53,400 --> 03:00:53,920
Bye, Steve.

5284
03:00:54,120 --> 03:00:54,860
Good party.

5285
03:00:55,040 --> 03:00:57,120
Well, Steve, of course, is a pilot, so

5286
03:00:57,120 --> 03:00:59,280
that's why he would be promoting the planes.

5287
03:00:59,480 --> 03:01:01,040
We have a meetup taking place today in

5288
03:01:01,040 --> 03:01:03,760

There's even meetups listed through June at noagentomeetups

.com.

5309
03:01:49,540 --> 03:01:52,320
This is something you need as an adjunct

5310
03:01:52,320 --> 03:01:52,840
to the show.

5311
03:01:53,240 --> 03:01:54,880
If you listen to the show, that's great.

5312
03:01:55,220 --> 03:01:56,520
If you support the show, that's great, but

5313
03:01:56,520 --> 03:01:58,420
you've got to meet your fellow producers of

5314
03:01:58,420 --> 03:01:59,120
No Agenda Nation.

5315
03:01:59,240 --> 03:02:00,660
Go to noagentomeetups.com.

5316
03:02:00,900 --> 03:02:02,400
If you can't find one near you, start

5317
03:02:02,400 --> 03:02:03,020
one yourself.

5318
03:02:03,320 --> 03:02:04,100
Guaranteed to party.

5319
03:02:22,080 --> 03:02:26,100
This is the point in the show where

5320
03:02:26,100 --> 03:02:28,240
we like to determine what clip we'll play

5321
03:02:28,240 --> 03:02:29,540
at the end of the show, what ISO.

5322
03:02:29,720 --> 03:02:31,220
It's a very important piece of our production.

5323
03:02:32,860 --> 03:02:34,700
Became a very important piece of our production.

5324
03:02:35,240 --> 03:02:37,140
And you have out clipped me once again.

5325
03:02:37,200 --> 03:02:39,240
I only have one, so I don't know.

5326
03:02:39,380 --> 03:02:41,060
But this is the second show in a

5327
03:02:41,060 --> 03:02:41,800
row with one.

5328
03:02:42,060 --> 03:02:44,100
Well, I had bird flu, you know.

5329
03:02:44,980 --> 03:02:45,480
Well, yeah.

5330
03:02:45,480 --> 03:02:46,520
How are you feeling with the bird flu?

5331
03:02:46,520 --> 03:02:47,340
I'm feeling pretty good.

5332
03:02:47,460 --> 03:02:49,380
Tina took a little turn for the worse.

5333
03:02:49,500 --> 03:02:51,840
The cough is, and she's okay, but she

5334
03:02:51,840 --> 03:02:54,260
does have a cough.

5335
03:02:55,820 --> 03:02:56,980
She's living through it.

5336
03:02:57,160 --> 03:02:58,540
It's bird flu, bird flu.

5337
03:02:58,660 --> 03:02:59,100
We'll be okay.

5338
03:02:59,900 --> 03:03:01,040
You want to hear my one ISO?

5339
03:03:01,640 --> 03:03:02,380
Yes, of course.

5340
03:03:02,680 --> 03:03:05,680
Oh, I hope 2025 is everything you wanted

5341
03:03:05,680 --> 03:03:06,240
it to be.

5342
03:03:07,920 --> 03:03:10,520
It's too bad he wasn't more gay.

5343
03:03:11,200 --> 03:03:12,460
This was pretty gay.

5344
03:03:13,580 --> 03:03:14,780
Pretty flamboyant.

5345
03:03:14,780 --> 03:03:16,360
All right.

5346
03:03:16,380 --> 03:03:16,960
I got a bunch.

5347
03:03:17,040 --> 03:03:17,560
I got five.

5348
03:03:17,900 --> 03:03:18,420
I noticed.

5349
03:03:18,860 --> 03:03:20,580
Let's start with this top one.

5350
03:03:20,640 --> 03:03:21,420
It'll go down the line.

5351
03:03:21,680 --> 03:03:22,160
Annoying.

5352
03:03:22,840 --> 03:03:23,860
It's really annoying.

5353
03:03:24,960 --> 03:03:25,360
Okay.

5354
03:03:25,640 --> 03:03:26,180
Not bad.

5355
03:03:27,340 --> 03:03:28,380
End of the year.

5356
03:03:29,160 --> 03:03:31,060
The year has come to an end.

5357
03:03:31,800 --> 03:03:33,580
Well, that would have been good for the

5358
03:03:33,580 --> 03:03:34,160
last show.

5359
03:03:35,580 --> 03:03:36,120
Joe Biden.

5360
03:03:36,900 --> 03:03:39,120
Where is Joe Biden when you need him?

5361
03:03:40,460 --> 03:03:40,940
Okay.

5362
03:03:41,080 --> 03:03:42,000
You got me on that one.

5363
03:03:42,060 --> 03:03:42,500
That's okay.

5364
03:03:42,560 --> 03:03:43,260
I like that one.

5365
03:03:43,900 --> 03:03:44,660
New year.

5366
03:03:45,140 --> 03:03:46,180
Happy new year.

5367
03:03:50,560 --> 03:03:50,960
Okay.

5368
03:03:51,120 --> 03:03:52,220
Here's the last one is wow.

5369
03:03:52,740 --> 03:03:53,540
Excellent show.

5370
03:03:53,900 --> 03:03:54,180
Wow.

5371
03:03:54,320 --> 03:03:54,960
And wow.

5372
03:03:55,080 --> 03:03:55,320
Wow.

5373
03:03:55,540 --> 03:03:57,340
Yeah, I like that one the best.

5374
03:03:57,440 --> 03:03:58,020
Let me hear that again.

5375
03:03:58,080 --> 03:03:58,720
Excellent show.

5376
03:03:59,080 --> 03:03:59,380
Wow.

5377
03:03:59,520 --> 03:04:00,120
And wow.

5378
03:04:00,180 --> 03:04:00,380
Wow.

5379
03:04:00,380 --> 03:04:01,960
I think we have a winner, John, because

5380
03:04:01,960 --> 03:04:03,420
it is always an excellent show.

5381
03:04:03,440 --> 03:04:04,680
And as we say, wow.

5382
03:04:04,860 --> 03:04:05,240
And wow.

5383
03:04:05,300 --> 03:04:05,580
Wow.

5384
03:04:05,660 --> 03:04:07,360
And it's time now for the top of

5385
03:04:07,360 --> 03:04:07,720
the show.

5386
03:04:07,760 --> 03:04:09,920
It is John's tip of the day.

5387
03:04:17,000 --> 03:04:20,620
And sometimes created by Dana Brunetti.

5388
03:04:20,840 --> 03:04:21,340
All right.

5389
03:04:21,400 --> 03:04:22,240
Tip of the day time.

5390
03:04:22,380 --> 03:04:23,000
We're all excited.

5391
03:04:24,720 --> 03:04:25,200
Okay.

5392
03:04:25,320 --> 03:04:28,640
Well, this is a YouTuber had to give

5393
03:04:28,640 --> 03:04:29,540
credit to YouTube.

5394
03:04:29,540 --> 03:04:31,980
But this guy is a natural broadcaster as

5395
03:04:31,980 --> 03:04:33,160
a kid, 22.

5396
03:04:33,300 --> 03:04:34,260
He's just still in college.

5397
03:04:34,940 --> 03:04:38,760
And he does a weather podcast daily.

5398
03:04:39,460 --> 03:04:42,580
But he focuses on extreme weather events.

5399
03:04:42,680 --> 03:04:43,780
And he will stay on.

5400
03:04:43,860 --> 03:04:45,920
And he's a I've never heard a natural

5401
03:04:45,920 --> 03:04:47,160
broadcaster at this level.

5402
03:04:47,280 --> 03:04:50,240
This guy is a natural broadcaster.

5403
03:04:50,380 --> 03:04:51,860
He's one of the you know, the type

5404
03:04:51,860 --> 03:04:56,580
they can talk endlessly, without flubbing.

5405
03:04:56,840 --> 03:04:57,360
Yes.

5406
03:04:57,780 --> 03:04:58,820
Without stammering.

5407
03:04:58,900 --> 03:05:01,220
And yak, yak, yak, yak, and just go

5408
03:05:01,220 --> 03:05:01,720
forever.

5409
03:05:01,720 --> 03:05:05,740
And he does some I understand the best

5410
03:05:05,740 --> 03:05:07,020
tornado reporting.

5411
03:05:07,380 --> 03:05:09,800
And he gets his material from all over

5412
03:05:09,800 --> 03:05:10,200
the world.

5413
03:05:10,260 --> 03:05:12,060
He doesn't just go with the National Weather

5414
03:05:12,060 --> 03:05:13,520
Service for his information.

5415
03:05:14,140 --> 03:05:16,580
And his name is max velocity, which has

5416
03:05:16,580 --> 03:05:17,460
got bogus.

5417
03:05:17,700 --> 03:05:19,840
But it's a good, good name in the

5418
03:05:19,840 --> 03:05:20,060
broad.

5419
03:05:20,100 --> 03:05:22,140
He's already got the broadcaster sense of having

5420
03:05:22,140 --> 03:05:23,880
a name like max velocity.

5421
03:05:23,880 --> 03:05:26,800
And people should, if you like weather reporters,

5422
03:05:26,820 --> 03:05:28,700
and this guy is probably going to be

5423
03:05:28,700 --> 03:05:30,200
the guy you're going to hear about this

5424
03:05:30,200 --> 03:05:31,980
guy for the rest of your life.

5425
03:05:32,280 --> 03:05:34,040
And you have a clip of max velocity?

5426
03:05:34,520 --> 03:05:35,380
No, I don't.

5427
03:05:35,800 --> 03:05:38,620
I don't add clips to these tips.

5428
03:05:40,040 --> 03:05:41,620
Max velocity on YouTube.

5429
03:05:41,720 --> 03:05:43,060
There it is, ladies and gentlemen, your tip

5430
03:05:43,060 --> 03:05:44,960
of the day, find it at tipoftheday.net

5431
03:05:44,960 --> 03:05:47,120
and noagendafun.com.

5432
03:05:55,920 --> 03:05:59,540
Why don't you go ahead and scour the

5433
03:05:59,540 --> 03:06:00,520
pod space?

5434
03:06:01,620 --> 03:06:02,220
What was it?

5435
03:06:02,300 --> 03:06:03,200
No, it's the pod.

5436
03:06:03,340 --> 03:06:05,520
What do you call pod pod pod?

5437
03:06:05,780 --> 03:06:08,880
No, the pod scape pod scape and pod

5438
03:06:08,880 --> 03:06:10,820
verse and see if you can find it's

5439
03:06:10,820 --> 03:06:11,720
not podiverse.

5440
03:06:12,000 --> 03:06:12,400
I don't know.

5441
03:06:12,640 --> 03:06:14,580
See if you can find a podcast in

5442
03:06:14,580 --> 03:06:16,200
the pod scape that gives you a tip

5443
03:06:16,200 --> 03:06:16,600
of the day.

5444
03:06:16,740 --> 03:06:18,540
I don't think so.

5445
03:06:20,400 --> 03:06:21,360
No, I don't think so either.

5446
03:06:21,420 --> 03:06:23,600
Now to mention it, we have and something

5447
03:06:23,600 --> 03:06:25,240
else you won't find is end of show

5448
03:06:25,240 --> 03:06:28,160
mixes from David Keck to these laughs and

5449
03:06:28,160 --> 03:06:30,300
the clip custodian Neil Jones with a nice

5450
03:06:30,300 --> 03:06:32,100
toe tap and Diddy.

5451
03:06:32,300 --> 03:06:34,840
And if you stick around at trollroom.io,

5452
03:06:35,000 --> 03:06:38,020
noagenda.stream, or you're listening on a modern

5453
03:06:38,020 --> 03:06:41,180
podcast app, Grimerica is up next.

5454
03:06:41,400 --> 03:06:42,220
These guys from Canada.

5455
03:06:42,760 --> 03:06:43,360
We like that.

5456
03:06:43,480 --> 03:06:44,880
We like the Grimerica guys.

5457
03:06:44,940 --> 03:06:46,140
They got a couple of guests on the

5458
03:06:46,140 --> 03:06:46,300
show.

5459
03:06:46,360 --> 03:06:47,780
It's always fun listening to them.

5460
03:06:48,580 --> 03:06:51,520
And that concludes our broadcast day for the

5461
03:06:51,520 --> 03:06:54,940
first podcast in the pod scape of 2025

5462
03:06:54,940 --> 03:06:57,100
coming to you from the heart of the

5463
03:06:57,100 --> 03:06:59,100
Texas Hill Country where we're very concerned about

5464
03:06:59,100 --> 03:06:59,500
the mist.

5465
03:06:59,680 --> 03:07:00,740
In the morning, everybody.

5466
03:07:01,020 --> 03:07:01,640
I'm Adam Curry.

5467
03:07:02,020 --> 03:07:05,220
And from Northern Silicon Valley where everyone says

5468
03:07:05,220 --> 03:07:06,980
Happy New Year 2025.

5469
03:07:07,300 --> 03:07:07,760
I'm John C.

5470
03:07:07,820 --> 03:07:08,100
Dvorak.

5471
03:07:08,220 --> 03:07:10,560
We return on Sunday right here on No

5472
03:07:10,560 --> 03:07:10,940
Agenda.

5473
03:07:11,080 --> 03:07:13,240
Remember us at noagendadonations.com.

5474
03:07:13,300 --> 03:07:17,060
Until then, adios mofos, a hooey hooey, and

5475
03:07:17,060 --> 03:07:17,560
such.

5476
03:07:30,210 --> 03:07:38,720
Flight's journey from Oregon to Ontario, California, when

5477
03:07:38,720 --> 03:07:40,940
part of the fuselage was torn off, leaving

5478
03:07:40,940 --> 03:07:42,740
a hole in the side of the aircraft.

5479
03:07:42,920 --> 03:07:45,500
Breaking news, breaking news, breaking news, they're at

5480
03:07:45,500 --> 03:07:45,820
it again.

5481
03:07:45,900 --> 03:07:47,640
Oh my God, we've got to deploy fighter

5482
03:07:47,640 --> 03:07:47,940
jets.

5483
03:07:48,100 --> 03:07:50,280
Tonight in the skies above the western United

5484
03:07:50,280 --> 03:07:53,120
States, NORAD sending up fighter jets to track

5485
03:07:53,120 --> 03:07:56,380
the high altitude balloon flying at 43,000

5486
03:07:56,380 --> 03:07:57,920
to 45,000 feet.

5487
03:08:00,280 --> 03:08:02,280
As millions of Americans look to the sky

5488
03:08:02,280 --> 03:08:04,900
on Monday to witness the total solar eclipse,

5489
03:08:05,360 --> 03:08:07,300
a group of University of Pittsburgh students will

5490
03:08:07,300 --> 03:08:09,880
be chasing shadows in the Texas Hill Country.

5491
03:08:11,280 --> 03:08:13,180
You all have called this the cheap fakes

5492
03:08:13,180 --> 03:08:15,280
video, and that's exactly what they are.

5493
03:08:15,400 --> 03:08:16,520
They're cheap fakes video.

5494
03:08:17,200 --> 03:08:18,940
Donald Trump was at a U.S. election

5495
03:08:18,940 --> 03:08:21,880
rally in Pennsylvania when gunfire was heard from

5496
03:08:21,880 --> 03:08:22,400
the crowd.

5497
03:08:22,860 --> 03:08:24,940
He raised a fist to his supporters before

5498
03:08:24,940 --> 03:08:26,560
being taken away in a car.

5499
03:08:26,780 --> 03:08:28,740
What appeared to be blood was seen on

5500
03:08:28,740 --> 03:08:29,740
Mr. Trump's ear.

5501
03:08:31,600 --> 03:08:32,440
Personalized AI.

5502
03:08:34,060 --> 03:08:36,220
I just don't get why we can't have

5503
03:08:36,220 --> 03:08:38,380
Trump and Kamala Bose be presidents.

5504
03:08:38,700 --> 03:08:40,280
And we're definitely looking for end of show

5505
03:08:40,280 --> 03:08:42,380
mixes with some musical taste to it if

5506
03:08:42,380 --> 03:08:44,000
you feel so inclined.

5507
03:08:44,160 --> 03:08:47,160
And here's some days it feels like I

5508
03:08:47,160 --> 03:08:48,880
can never leave Toronto.

5509
03:08:49,080 --> 03:08:50,800
You never say it with a second T

5510
03:08:50,800 --> 03:08:52,140
screw face capital.

5511
03:08:52,460 --> 03:08:53,720
Get your disrespect for free.

5512
03:08:53,820 --> 03:08:55,920
The only language people understand is when you

5513
03:08:55,920 --> 03:08:58,820
speak in green cars and concrete colonies, crushing

5514
03:08:58,820 --> 03:09:01,380
cron, big bunch of C and tower long

5515
03:09:01,380 --> 03:09:03,520
walk around lost in some lights that are

5516
03:09:03,520 --> 03:09:04,200
never wrong.

5517
03:09:04,300 --> 03:09:07,000
Cruise along the harborfront looking for those days

5518
03:09:07,000 --> 03:09:08,220
that are forever gone.

5519
03:09:08,360 --> 03:09:11,460
It's all about getting dough, yo, and every

5520
03:09:11,460 --> 03:09:12,300
second story.

5521
03:09:12,300 --> 03:09:14,860
If I'll tell me hoes and now we're

5522
03:09:14,860 --> 03:09:17,620
just living in a city of frauds, electric

5523
03:09:17,620 --> 03:09:19,360
bikes late up the night like we're living

5524
03:09:19,360 --> 03:09:21,540
in Tron, waiting around to get masked up

5525
03:09:21,540 --> 03:09:23,820
for a new disease and going back to

5526
03:09:23,820 --> 03:09:26,020
school to get a few degrees, graduate the

5527
03:09:26,020 --> 03:09:27,700
move here to work for Uber Eats.

5528
03:09:27,880 --> 03:09:30,120
Every day is a victory or a new

5529
03:09:30,120 --> 03:09:30,480
defeat.

5530
03:09:30,580 --> 03:09:31,460
Just choose a street.

5531
03:09:31,740 --> 03:09:32,540
I see my city.

5532
03:09:32,780 --> 03:09:34,380
Yeah, we explore them as Toronto.

5533
03:09:34,620 --> 03:09:36,880
Even millionaires can barely afford the rent.

5534
03:09:37,140 --> 03:09:38,780
They took away of life and turned it

5535
03:09:38,780 --> 03:09:40,700
into a cold and a vicious saw turning

5536
03:09:40,700 --> 03:09:43,220
kids to adults who somersault out the ball.

5537
03:09:43,340 --> 03:09:46,500
CP 24 turn up thinking that everybody raps

5538
03:09:46,500 --> 03:09:48,280
or acts plus a chance of light rain.

5539
03:09:48,520 --> 03:09:50,240
People getting opened up in the street.

5540
03:09:50,340 --> 03:09:51,960
More than bike lanes turn to ash.

5541
03:09:52,220 --> 03:09:54,220
Plus, I really can't afford a nice grave.

5542
03:09:55,360 --> 03:09:58,220
Some days I can never leave Toronto.

5543
03:09:58,400 --> 03:10:00,140
You never say it with a second T

5544
03:10:00,140 --> 03:10:01,500
screw face capital.

5545
03:10:01,680 --> 03:10:03,240
You get your disrespect for free.

5546
03:10:03,400 --> 03:10:07,220
Only language people understand is potentially concerning new

5547
03:10:07,220 --> 03:10:08,740
mutations in the bird flu.

5548
03:10:09,120 --> 03:10:14,420
First severe human case the nation's first case

5549
03:10:14,420 --> 03:10:15,300
of bird flu.

5550
03:10:16,100 --> 03:10:18,360
The first human case of bird flu.

5551
03:10:18,540 --> 03:10:21,180
When you hear the words severe case, should

5552
03:10:21,180 --> 03:10:21,880
we be worried?

5553
03:10:24,680 --> 03:10:27,140
It's super dangerous.

5554
03:10:30,240 --> 03:10:32,280
That means we're not testing enough.

5555
03:10:32,400 --> 03:10:34,440
And we know from other viruses that a

5556
03:10:34,440 --> 03:10:36,080
lot of the spread can be asymptomatic.

5557
03:10:36,340 --> 03:10:38,880
We should be having rapid tests home tests

5558
03:10:38,880 --> 03:10:41,280
available to all farmworkers to their families.

5559
03:10:45,100 --> 03:10:49,860
What we need to be doing is a

5560
03:10:49,860 --> 03:10:51,260
whole lot more testing.

5561
03:11:13,800 --> 03:11:18,120
The best podcast in the universe.

5562
03:11:18,460 --> 03:11:19,860
Adios mofo.

5563
03:11:20,000 --> 03:11:23,440
Dvorak.org slash N A.

5564
03:11:24,000 --> 03:11:24,900
Excellent show.

5565
03:11:25,280 --> 03:11:25,560
Wow.

5566
03:11:25,680 --> 03:11:26,620
And wow wow.
