Starting point is 00:00:00 So it's a padcast. Adam Curry, John C. DeVorra. It's Thursday, November 20th, 2025. This is your award-winning Kimball Nation Media Assassination Episode 1818. This is no agenda. Scrubbing files and broadcasting live from the heart of the
Starting point is 00:00:17 Texas Hill Country here in FEMA, region number six. In the morning, everybody. I'm Adam Curry. And from your other Silicon Valley, where the watchword is, quiet, piggy. I'm John C. DeVorak. Greg Bonn and Buzzgill In the morning
Starting point is 00:00:32 Oh man, of all the things Of all the things That have happened this past week That's the one everyone's Oh, I can't believe He said quiet piggy I'm not even sure That's exactly what he said
Starting point is 00:00:42 He said quiet Peggy Oh he said Peggy There was a woman that There was a confusion I had it written down I don't have it in front of me But why come prepared There was a Bloomberg woman
Starting point is 00:00:55 Yeah That was one of the reporters And it was Peggy something and there was another Bloomberg woman and they attributed him telling the other Bloomberg woman whose name was Christine Lucy I believe
Starting point is 00:01:07 of saying quiet piggy no one's ever interviewed her or this has never been confirmed but it was he was saying quiet Peggy which was on the plane you couldn't hear anything and with this queen's accent quiet piggy
Starting point is 00:01:21 that's it well it was you know it was that what you've been bitching and moaning about which is that plane interview you know that you can't hear anything yeah no and so I said yeah and so they made a big fuss I do have one clip of a typical response that this is a TikTok clip you know I what happened to you I went nuts yeah so what I see like 10 10 TikTok yeah they're all dynamite but I got the quiet piggy one on here this is what the typical reaction was and here's what's interesting
Starting point is 00:01:54 I believe what I think happened I believe that when he first said it somebody caught it, and then they attributed it to this woman, this Lucy character. The press themselves put it out there so they could slam Trump. But if you listen to this rant from this woman to classic online rant, the media is who gets blasted for this, not Trump. Oh. This is the Piggy Chronicles? Is it what it says?
Starting point is 00:02:25 That's what it says. Yeah. It's anything that says piggy. Okay, here we go. Tell me why I just saw the president of the United States put his finger in a female journalist's face and tell her quiet piggy and not a single other journalist in the area did shit about it. Am I shocked at the president's actions? No, that's not even the point of this video. But this man points his finger in someone's face and snarls quiet piggy and the rest of the press corps just stands there like absolutely nothing.
Starting point is 00:02:58 happened. And listen, I grew up around journalists. I know how seriously they take professionalism. They are trained to keep their cool. This goes beyond that. This was demoralizing verbal abuse. That was not banter. That was not press tension. And her colleagues just watched it happen. This is an utter failure of the press. It is a failure of the entire point of the press in democracy. Journalists have got to stop fawning over access and start standing up for dignity and integrity. Imagine the impact if even one journalist had said, hey, you don't get to talk to us that way or you don't get to talk to her that way. Solidarity should not be optional when your colleague is being publicly shamed and demeaned and abused. And let's be real,
Starting point is 00:03:43 this is not the first time Trump has obviously harassed or abused or demoralized the press. And no one stands up to him. Authoritarians don't rise because they're strong. They rise because people are too scared to push back or they're too focused on their own self-interest when they cross the line. So, yes, obviously I'm disgusted with the president, what's new, but I'm more disgusted with these journalists who just stood up there and proved that not only are they being silenced, they are silencing themselves. Hmm. Well, she could have done it in half the time. I'm not arguing with that. This clip was way too long. I wish she would have tightened it up.
Starting point is 00:04:23 Yeah. But she did beat it to death, but it was aimed at the media, which I think is kind of the ironic part of it. Well, the president lashed out at all kinds of people and reporters. I didn't hear anyone coming to the defense of the ABC reporter. Well, I have actually a series of clips that involved that particular moment, including his takedown of Mary Bruce is who you're talking about. Yes. You want to do that? Let's do it.
Starting point is 00:04:54 It fits. Okay. We need to play something else after that lengthy TikTok clip. You can continue to complain about the length, but it was under two minutes, and that's my limit. This is the, well, let's start. Let's do the three by three if you want to play the jingle. Now it's time for three by three by three. I'm ready.
Starting point is 00:05:15 It's short. Experiment by JCD. Always at the ready. Comparing stories from ABC, CBS and NBC. The number ending three by three. That's right, everybody. John has a three by three. He's got three clips in the big three, ABC, NBC, CBS.
Starting point is 00:05:31 Will they sound the same? Will they have the same messaging? We're going to find out. Who do we start with? Well, we're going to start with the Mary Bruce one, and that it will go from there. And this is the ABC clip. Now, this is about the interaction between Mary Bruce and the Saudi Prince.
Starting point is 00:05:52 Ben Salman was in the He didn't say much He actually did He did say a lot He said I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry He can speak English
Starting point is 00:06:04 Oh you know about that particular moment Yeah we chopped that guy up Well it was a mistake What can I tell you? No it was just a It happens We chop people It's what we do
Starting point is 00:06:13 Sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry Give me a break I'm a Saudi What do you want Tonight, Saudi crown prince Muhammad bin Salman fully embraced by President Trump welcomed to the White House with horses on parade, a military flyover, and a personal tour.
Starting point is 00:06:32 Trump pulling out all the stops. Trump keeping praise on the crown prince. I'm very proud of the job he's done. What he's done is incredible in terms of human rights and everything else. But it was the CIA under Donald Trump, who determined in 20, that the Crown Prince orchestrated the murder and dismemberment of Washington Post journalist Jamal Khashoggi. President Trump bristling when I asked about that. Hold on a second.
Starting point is 00:06:57 Dismemberment? No, no, no, no, no. They saw that guy in the little bit. It wasn't just his arms and legs, was it? Well, they had to get him in suitcases, so I'm sure they chopped him up into smaller pieces. Yeah, well, I'm just correcting the record here. But I think you still use the term dismemberment. I think just chopped him into little bits would have been better.
Starting point is 00:07:19 She can't say that. There's no proof of it, by the way. Oh, there's no evidence. Donald Trump, who determined in 2018, that the Crown Prince orchestrated the murder and dismemberment of Washington Post journalist Jamal Khashoggi. President Trump bristling when I asked about that. Your royal highness, the U.S. intelligence.
Starting point is 00:07:38 Oh, this is interesting. She actually does the report herself. Yeah. Isn't this like one of the main things you're not supposed to, to do in journalism is make it about you? When it comes to the press core at the White House, they always, they tend
Starting point is 00:07:53 to do just the opposite. They always do their own reports and they say, I said this, I asked them, this, I ask them this, I ask them that. Well, I ask the president this, I ask the president that. No, not true. President Trump bristling when I asked about that. Your Royal Highness, the U.S. intelligence concluded that you
Starting point is 00:08:09 orchestrated the brutal murder of a journalist. 9-11 families are furious that you are here in the Oval Office. why should Americans trust you? And the same to you, Mr. President. Who are you with? I'm with ABC News, sir. You with who?
Starting point is 00:08:20 ABC News, sir. The president answering first. She cuts out the fake news. She cut that out. His answer was, your fake news. Yeah. Cut that out. You're absolutely right.
Starting point is 00:08:31 Nice. That's what he said. Nice. I'm with ABC News, sir. She cut a lot of stuff out. Well, of course. She made it look like she was doing her. She's doing her job.
Starting point is 00:08:37 But she went on some other shows later too. She's pretty cool about it. But you can tell she's a, she's a liberal. Oh. gambling anyone? You're with who? Yeah, I'm sorry. The president answering first, defending the crown prince,
Starting point is 00:08:51 and instead criticizing the journalist who was murdered. You're mentioning somebody that was extremely controversial? A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Damn, I forgot. I should have mentioned this when you interrupted the clip. If you notice when she said the CIA accused you of being behind it. Intellectives community, yes. And then she said, and 9-11 families are mad that you're here.
Starting point is 00:09:20 Yeah. Which is interesting. Well, because the 9-11 families know that it was Saudis who were actually behind the plot. Was it him? No, he wasn't even an opposite to tell him. But he's brown. He's wearing a dress. Like, be mad at him.
Starting point is 00:09:37 Instead, criticizing the journalist who was murdered. You're mentioning somebody that was extremely. controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happened, but he knew nothing about it, and we can leave it at that. Wow, that's my boss talk.
Starting point is 00:09:55 Hey, you like him, you don't like him, things happen. Hey, what are you going to do? What am I going to do? You'll fall off a bridge. It's not my fault. I have to embarrass our guests by asking a question like that. But the crown prince, who rarely faces the press, defended himself. It's really
Starting point is 00:10:10 painful to hear you know, anyone that been losing his life for, you know, no real the purpose. It's painful and it's a huge mistake and we are doing our best that this doesn't happen again. Hey, man, I'm sorry. You know, won't happen again.
Starting point is 00:10:26 It won't happen again. I promise. I promise you here. Won't happen again. Trump has been eager to cultivate ties to Saudi Arabia traveling there for the first foreign trip of both his presidential terms and his family has been doing big business in Saudi. There it is. Trump's down with the Jedi.
Starting point is 00:10:42 Yeah, coming soon. Coming soon. Trump towers going up in Jetta and in Riyadh, a Trump plaza now in the works. In the last year alone, the Trump organization's Saudi partner, pumping more than $20 million into the family business. Pumping. They're pumping it in. It's a big gas handle pumping it in. Yeah, pumping it, yeah. Let's not talk about the $600 billion to trillion that Saudi is going to invest here. Let's talk about the $20 million they're pumping into Trump pump.
Starting point is 00:11:12 This is, you know, it's also as if the Trump organization, which he's not really running right now. He's got other things to do. Yeah, but it's the kids. It's the kids. And they're going to take it over anyway, that they're supposed to, what, shut her? Yeah. Yeah. While he's president.
Starting point is 00:11:28 Well, we all know. This is fake. It's not at all like Biden and Burisma. Shut up. So here we go from there. We'll go from. That was ABC. Bruce.
Starting point is 00:11:40 Let's go to, let's go to CBS. And, you know, CBS is still kind of on pretty much the same report, and they don't veer too much away from it. But they don't, they don't, they also leave out stuff like fake news. You ought to go back and learn how to be a reporter. The question that set Trump off was not an unexpected one. Now, who are you with? I'm with ABC News, sir. He was asked why Americans should trust his guest, the crown prince of Saudi Arabia, after the brutal killing of Washington Post columnist,
Starting point is 00:12:10 Jamal Khashoggi. Hold on. That's not what she did. She didn't say, should you trust him? She didn't ask him if the president should trust him. Not at all. Okay, just pointing it out. They're making it up to questions of the fly. They're making it up. Oh no. Saudi Arabia after the brutal killing of Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi in 2018. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happened. But he didn't. knew nothing about it. That was not the conclusion of the U.S. intelligence community, which assessed in
Starting point is 00:12:46 2021 that Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman did approve an operation in Istanbul Turkey to capture or kill Khashoggi, who was a legal U.S. resident. Today, the Crown Prince called the killing. They make it sound like he's a citizen of the United States. Yes, legal U.S. resident. Yeah, of course. He killed an American, man. Chopped him up.
Starting point is 00:13:09 That's the implication, yes. What is Barry Weiss doing? I thought she was going to be pro-Trump. What's happening? She's not doing anything as what she's doing. Apture or kill Khashoggi, who was a legal U.S. resident. Today, the Crown Prince called the killing a mistake. We've improved our system to be sure that nothing happened like that, and it's painful.
Starting point is 00:13:33 It was painful for Khashoggi, I'll bet. The moment marred an otherwise lavish welcome for the Crown Prince, who rolled out the red carpet for Trump in Riyadh this spring. On the eve of this visit, Trump approved a plan to sell F-35 fighter jets to the Saudis for the first time, despite Pentagon concerns that China, a Saudi ally, could try to steal the plane's technology. Oh, yeah, go ahead, steal that turkey. Trump was asked today if his family's deep business ties to Saudi Arabia are prompting preferential treatment by the U.S. government. What my family does is fine. They do business all over. They've done very little with Saudi Arabia, actually. I'm sure they could do a lot.
Starting point is 00:14:16 They already do a lot. In September, a Saudi-backed developer unveiled plans for a $1 billion Trump Plaza development in the seaside city of Jeddah. Just yesterday, the Trump Organization announced a licensing deal with Saudi investors to build a luxury hotel in the Maldives. How did we get from $20 million to a billion? all of a sudden. Well, no, what they did is they changed the, uh, the model. They, it wasn't the Trump, it wasn't the Trump organization. It was a Saudi, if you listen to again, it was a Saudi, it was a Saudi developer. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:53 Who had the Trump's in as a partner in a, in a, you know, there's so they're, yeah. So you could use the exaggerated number. Yeah. And then they drop in something about the Maldives, which has got nothing to do with anything. Aren't they, isn't the Maldives tipping due to climate change? Yeah. They're supposed to be... Sounds like a bad business deal to me.
Starting point is 00:15:11 Yeah. Oh, yeah, I wouldn't... I'd say away. You don't want that. No. All right. So that report was as slanted as the other one. Of course.
Starting point is 00:15:18 It was... It had a couple of elements that were... But again, no mention of the gigantic investment in the United States. No, not one mention of it, except they're going to sell them a bunch of F-35s that the Chinese might steal. Yeah. Ooh. Yeah. Here's the keys, boys.
Starting point is 00:15:36 All right. And so... And it won't be the current model that you can be sure of that. You get a 2022, boys. You're not giving you the 2026, all right? With a touchscreen. And there's, you know, you put fail-safe mechanisms in these planes. So here we go.
Starting point is 00:15:57 Now NBC, it turns out, another Trump hating network has, they actually, it's probably the mildest of the reporting, but it still includes the same most important. things and leaves out the most important things. Tonight, President Trump rolled... They all had that trumpet, though, didn't they? They all like, they love the trumpet. They love putting the dress, a nice gnat pop.
Starting point is 00:16:19 Tonight, President Trump rolling out the red carpet for Saudi Arabia's crown prince Mohammed bin Salman, offering the kingdom's de facto ruler a lavish welcome, including an honor guard on horseback. By the way, you should just mention Muhammad bin Salman, as he says here, was the darling of D.C. before this unfortunate Khashoggi Bonesaw incident. Everyone wants to talk about MBS this, MBS that. They all loved him. Remember that? Yeah, vaguely.
Starting point is 00:16:49 Oh, yeah. Oh, MBS. I was invited to MBS. Oh, MBS. And a military flyover. Including several F-35 jets. The same type of advanced fighters the president plans to sell to Saudi Arabia. President Trump touting Saudi Arabia's 600. billion dollars of investments in the U.S. What it really means for everybody that really counts
Starting point is 00:17:13 his jobs, a lot of jobs. Now saying the Saudi investment could rise to a trillion dollars. You're saying to me now that the 600 billion will be one trillion. Definitely because what we are signing it will facilitate that and I like that very much.
Starting point is 00:17:29 That friendly reception for the Crown Prince a major reversal from the international ostracism he faced after the CIA concluded he ordered the murder of Washington Post journalist Jamal Khashoggi in 2018. President Trump interrupting a question about the killing. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happened, but he knew nothing about it.
Starting point is 00:17:51 And we can leave it at that. The Crown Prince, who has denied ordering the murder, responding. We've improved our system to be sure that nothing happened like that. And it's painful and it's a huge mistake. While President Trump was pressed about... I like how he says we've improved our system. what system is that he also says well he also says it was a mistake yeah and and i if you remember the reporting on this it was believed that they were trying to kidnap him and drag him back to
Starting point is 00:18:20 Saudi Arabia to stand trial for somebody went rogue and some well the reporting at least some of it was that Khashoggi was making such a fuss and causing such a scene they had to hit him in the head or something it killed him oh and now that they killed them they had to figure out how to get him out of there. Because he's dead by accident. You know, it was a mistake. I just love how we've improved our system. Of what? Killing people? What system is that, MBS? The Crown Prince, who has denied ordering the murder, responding. We've improved our system to be sure that nothing happened like that. It's painful, and it's a huge mistake. While President Trump was pressed about his family's business dealings in Saudi Arabia, including Trump-branded luxury properties. I have nothing
Starting point is 00:19:04 to do with a family business. I have left and when I, I've devoted 100% of my energy. What my family does is fine. They do business all over. They've done very little with Saudi Arabia actually. Yeah. All right. Okay. So now before we get to the
Starting point is 00:19:20 clip I wanted to play, there's one more, just a balance a three by three with a four which is the Trump-Saudy overview from NTD. Okay. President Trump speaking today at the Saudi Investment Forum to top business and tech executives, touting billions of dollars in financial ties between the U.S. and
Starting point is 00:19:39 Saudi Arabia. He also vows to partner with Middle Eastern countries to work toward peace in Sudan at the request of the Saudi Crown Prince. And he's Mario Tzu has more from the White House. The partnership between our two nations is among the most consequential in the entire world and together the Crown Prince and I are making an alliance stronger and more powerful than it's ever been before. President Trump announcing that 270 billion.
Starting point is 00:20:04 dollars in deals are being assigned between dozens of companies today, thanking those companies for bringing jobs back to American workers. This coming just a day, after rolling out the red carpet for Saudi crown prince Mohammed bin Salman in a day of pomp and circumstance, which culminated in a black tie dinner at the White House. This week, our countries also signed groundbreaking agreements on civil nuclear energy, critical minerals, and artificial intelligence. And we're going to be selling Saudi Arabia some of the greatest military equipment ever built, including nearly 300 American-made tanks. The Saudi Prince Tuesday pledging to increase his country's investments in the U.S.
Starting point is 00:20:42 from a previously promised $600 billion. Yesterday, the Crown Prince announced that the number that they'll be investing in the United States is $1 trillion. And President Trump hailing the U.S. Saudi strategic partnership announcing We officially designated the kingdom yesterday as the major non-N-NATO ally. That's a big deal. President Trump also vows to settle the conflict in Sudan by working out a peace deal at the request of the Saudi Crown Prince. I just see how important that is to you and to a lot of your friends in the room.
Starting point is 00:21:15 Sudan, and we're going to start working on Sudan. I didn't think that that was one that was going to be. The president adding how influential his tariff strategy has been in ensuring national security and brokering multiple peace deal. Now, ABC, NBC, CBS had none of these details. No. What's the deal with... What's the deal with... I mean, they were boring, but they were more interesting. What's the deal with Sudan?
Starting point is 00:21:42 The Crown Prince is, yeah, that's what you'd want to know. Yeah. The Crown Prince is upset about something going on down there, and he says it should... This is like battle between... Oil. It's got to be oil. Where's Clooney is what I like to know, but besides that. With this eye in the sky.
Starting point is 00:21:59 You're right. Where is Clooney? It's like he wants to settle and Trump says he'll do it. Whatever. So I thoroughly enjoyed this press conference, not for the Nat Pops and the obvious that the big three took away from it. But Trump had a shill in the audience. This was really good. And I take the president at his word that he's mad about this whole Epstein thing. And of course, doesn't help himself with.
Starting point is 00:22:27 calling the journalist fake news because his news doesn't get on the news. His news, which he's desperately trying, he needs help. He needs help with these promotions. So he's trying to explain that obviously the money that's being brought in that's going to be invested into the United States in automotive, in ships, ships, Pennsylvania, of all places, billions of dollars worth of ship building contracts, but also for the AI and for the, for the, for the,
Starting point is 00:22:57 energy and he had a GE shill in the room. This was new. This was new. Wasn't he CEO? No, no. He's a regional guy. He's a regional guy for GE. Oh, I thought it was the CEO. Verona. No, no, no. You're talking about Verona. What?
Starting point is 00:23:13 You're talking about G.E. Verona. G.E. Verona. Isn't that the show you're talking about? No. I don't know if it's G.E. I thought it was just a guy from GE who deals with the gas turbans. Well, let's listen. Maybe we'll learn.
Starting point is 00:23:29 But on AI, we're doing well. And I have a man, David, Romel. Yes, sir. David, could you say a few words about what you're seeing on the job front and all of the, some of the assets and also how
Starting point is 00:23:44 we've been helped by the Saudis in terms of the kind of investment they've made, please. I'm certainly, thank you for the opportunity. I am a facility leader for GE Reneta. Facility leader. And if you look at the landscape for G. Ivernava investment over $750 million
Starting point is 00:24:00 in the U.S. focused on true manufacturing jobs here stateside. We're looking at tripling the output of our Greenville South Carolina facility where we make the gas turbines that are supporting U.S. needs as well as the Saudi Arabia
Starting point is 00:24:16 needs. So real jobs. $300 million in gas investment resulting in over 500 pieces of new equipment being installed in the Greenville, South Carolina facility. That translates into roughly 1,800 jobs across the board for GE-Vernova as we try to scale capacity to be able to meet this demand. Along with that, we're partnering with local communities to build the skill set that's required to meet these capacity needs. So that
Starting point is 00:24:45 talent pipeline is incredibly important. So it's real jobs in the manufacturing space. Well, you've been great and thank you very much. And we love that state. I won that state by record numbers. I won a lot of states by record, Texas. There are a lot of them. Oh, yeah, Texas. Indiana. We're working with Indiana or something right now. We won that. We won a lot of them by records,
Starting point is 00:25:07 but that was one of them. I want to thank you very much. Say hello, everybody. Great job. You're doing a great job. Thank you. I love the trolls in the troll room. They have nothing but negative things to say, oh, these jobs won't really happen. Are these good paying union jobs? So, uh, this guy was,
Starting point is 00:25:24 Trump has done this before and every time he does it bringing a shill from a company who this guy's a facility he's got bull crap this guy's a PR guy or his spokeshole he's too slick to be a facilities guy facility of course that's what you are
Starting point is 00:25:40 so he comes in and he talks about the GE operation which these guys are nuke guys and modern and every time he does it the company stock skyrockets he's done this
Starting point is 00:25:54 before with different, I've noticed this. You bring this guy, and you watch this stock, and I'm not recommending stocks to anybody, but I'm just saying that this guy, this stock will skyrocket like all the rest of these. When he brings a shill in, yeah, I think there's more going on. There's more going on.
Starting point is 00:26:13 Well, I think there's more going on. Now, the clip I wanted to play, which is the Mary Bruce clip, I just wanted to, so we can have an indication of what a bully Trump is with people he dislikes. Wait, is this one of your two minute clips that's two minute and 56? Unfortunately, you can cut it off, but I just want you to play the, you cut it off it. Gotcha. Gotcha. Gotcha. I mean, you're steamrolling me, man. I was listening. I was
Starting point is 00:26:42 recording this clip. I said, holy crap, well, I can't put this. As soon as I put this clip on the list Adam will call me out as a douchebag for doing it. You're steamrolling me, man, with your two-minute clips. It's just steamrolling. But this one, this one is this, here's what, this was a follow-up question later in the press conference. You saw this, I'm sure. Where, because Bruce
Starting point is 00:27:04 is the one who asked the nasty question about Khashoggi being murdered by the guy sitting there. And, you know, and Trump's thinking, what is she trying to do? Queer the deal here. We're trying to get $600 to a billion, a trillion into the country. And she's
Starting point is 00:27:20 like trying to humiliate this. guy, so he was irked. Mr. President, why we... Oh, sorry. Wait, wait. I still have to finish the setup because so you can understand where it came from.
Starting point is 00:27:31 So later in the press back and forth, she throws in another question about the Epstein files and I think it's because he was steaming that he goes, he jumps,
Starting point is 00:27:43 because she has a very, I thought a very simple, almost an inane question. It was not strong-worded. It was kind of not, It wasn't bad, but he jumps on her, jumps down her throat. It's unbelievable, but I think it's because of the previous action. Mr. President, why wait for Congress to release the Epstein files?
Starting point is 00:28:03 Why not just do it now? It's not the question that I mind. It's your attitude. I think you are a terrible reporter. It's the way you ask these questions. You start off with a man who's highly respected asking him a horrible, insubordinate, and just a terrible question. And you could even ask that same exact question nicely.
Starting point is 00:28:27 You're all psyched. Somebody sikes you over at ABC. They're going to psych it. You're a terrible person and a terrible reporter. As far as the Epstein files is, I have nothing to do with Jeffrey Epstein. I threw him out of my club many years ago because I thought he was a sick pervert.
Starting point is 00:28:47 But I guess I turned out to be right. But you know who does have Bill Clinton, Larry Summers who ran Harvard was with him every single night, every single weekend they lived together. They went to his island many times I never did. Andrew Weissman are here.
Starting point is 00:29:05 All these guys were friends of his. You don't even talk about those people. You just keep going on the Epstein files. And what the Epstein is, is a Democrat hoax to try and get me not to be able to talk about the $21 trillion that I talked about today. It's a hoax.
Starting point is 00:29:21 Now, I just got a little report, and I put it in my pocket, of all the money that he's given to Democrats. Now, I'm just going to stop it here, because this is exactly what I was saying. And he's unhinged. He's unhinged here because her attitude wasn't that bad. No, not on that question. No, but he's pissed off that nobody's reporting on the, he says 21 trillion. I can't quite find 21 trillion. But it's certainly a lot of money.
Starting point is 00:29:50 and that that's getting no press and that, you know, he's fighting what he calls fake news, but he's doing an uncharacteristically poor job at it by... Well, I think he's discombobulated for a number of reasons. One, the Khashoggi thing with her and that he's really mad at her, which I think triggered this rant. But he's also, I think, irked at his scheme. I wrote about this in the newsletter with some detail. I think his scheme to release the Epstein files before the primaries,
Starting point is 00:30:25 or I'm sorry, not the primaries, the midterms. It went off the rails. Clearly. He got screwed on this deal. Clearly. And he's mad because now it's useless. All this stuff will come out and blow over by mid next year by summer. It's going to be forgotten completely.
Starting point is 00:30:43 He will have no ammunition. He's been Schumerized. I think Schumer, by the way, is behind a lot of this stuff. And I credit Schumer with being smarter than everyone wants to think he is. Humorized. Oh, that's like a Laura Lumer term. Lumerized. Schumerized.
Starting point is 00:30:59 And Schumer's behind a lot of this stuff. And he's working behind the scenes to screw up Trump. He's smarter than people want to give him credit for. He's a schemer. He's a ex dumb. And he seems slow, witty, reads everything. But he's got a lot of things going on. and Schumer's help get this thing out of the way
Starting point is 00:31:23 so you get these files that have to be released by the end of the next 30 days. No, no, no, it's taking 30 days so the FBI can scrub Trump out of them, don't you know? Yes, this is all part of it. And the whole thing has got him irk to an extreme.
Starting point is 00:31:41 But I don't want to go to Epstein. But he screwed himself when he made the big fuss. Yes. Yes. I don't want to, is the rest Epstein? No, it's mostly him blasting this poor woman. I'll play a little bit more. Play a little bit. He gave me none, zero, no money to me.
Starting point is 00:31:59 But he gave money to Democrats. And people are wise to your hoax. And ABC's, your company, your crappy company is one of the perpetrators. And I'll tell you something. I'll tell you something. I think the license should be taken away from ABC. Because your news is so fake. And it's so wrong.
Starting point is 00:32:19 And we have a great commissioner, the chairman, who should look at that. Because I think when you come in and when you're 97% negative to Trump, and then Trump wins the election in a landslide, that means obviously your news is not credible. And you're not credible as a reporter. So I've answered your question. You should go and look at the Democrats who received money from Epstein, who spent their time. Larry Summers was with him all the time.
Starting point is 00:32:48 Nobody, Mr. President, nobody cares about Larry Summers. If you said Larry Summers, who is on the board of Open AI, Chad GPT, that might have gotten a little bit of legs. Nobody cares. Well, President of Harvard is a pretty good thing, but he doesn't say that either. That creep of the fund guy was with him all the time. What's his name? Reid Hoffman. I don't know, Reed Hoffman.
Starting point is 00:33:13 He should know Reed Hoffman. This is bad that he doesn't know Reed Hoffman. Hoffman. I don't believe him. Of course he knows Reed Hoffman, but why isn't he saying Reed Hoffman of what's that company? Did he do LinkedIn? No, he sold LinkedIn and now it's
Starting point is 00:33:30 come on, the big CRM company. I don't know. Yes. Well, we can figure this out. Rather easily, you can ask the robot or you can just quickly look it up. But I know he spends a lot of money on the radical left.
Starting point is 00:33:46 Reed Hoffman, in my opinion, should be under investigation. He's a sleigh-bag. And those are the people, but they don't get any press. They don't get any news. And you're not after the radical left because you're a radical left network.
Starting point is 00:33:59 But I think the way you ask a question with the anger and the meanness is terrible. You ought to go back and learn how to be a reporter. No more questions from you. Who else has a question? Yeah, it was LinkedIn, but didn't he sell LinkedIn? Yeah, he did.
Starting point is 00:34:14 He saw it to Microsoft, didn't he? Maybe he did. Anyway, Reid Hoffman's a drip, that's for sure. Oh, he is. He's totally. He's a draught. He's like Karas Swisher's buddy. Did you get the clip from her?
Starting point is 00:34:29 No. The last pivot? No, no, no. I was going to get it. I said, oh, I don't know what he watches this. I did not have enough hate this week. I didn't have enough hate. I couldn't hate this.
Starting point is 00:34:39 I'll just tell you what she said. She says that Trump is done. He's going to quit. He's going to resign office before December. Oh, yeah. before the end of this year. Yes, just in time for Christmas. Of course.
Starting point is 00:34:51 All right. So I just want to stick with Saudi Arabia for a minute because a lot more was going on. We had the U.S. Saudi summit. And that's why Elon Musk was there and Tim, Tim Cook was there. And Tim Cook was there? Tim Cook was there. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:08 Tim Cook showed up. Of course. Because there's money, money, money, money. Yeah, I realized there's money. but I didn't, they said that every time I've seen the list of people that showed up, Tim Cook was never mentioned. Yes, he was there. Along with Jensen, Jensen, Jensen Wang, Jensen, Huang, what's his, how do you pronounce it?
Starting point is 00:35:30 Jensen Wang. Jensen Wang. Jensen Wang from invidia, or as the president says, Navidia. And so they have this sit down, and they're all sitting there, and they're talking about humane, which you spell H-U-M-A-I-N, which is this AI company from Saudi Arabia. This is the kingdom's flagship AI enterprise to drive global AI innovation. Oh, yeah. Well, and it's so they say they're going to buy 600,000 Nvidia GPUs, which is a lot, which may, you know, may have helped the rosiness of Wall Street yesterday. although that seems to have tapered down a little bit because everyone's like...
Starting point is 00:36:16 It dropped today. Yeah. Where's the money coming from? People are not stupid. So then... Well, at some point, you got to, you know, this merry-go round of money. I'll give you a million. Okay, well, I'll take your million, give it to this guy.
Starting point is 00:36:28 And then I'm going to take that million, give it to this guy. Round and round, and you get the million back. You go, well, I'm going to make it two. Well, it's... Let's make it a trillion. In NVIDIA's statement, their written statement, they even said, we're not even sure that the you know the hundred billion dollars from uh from open eye open a i which they base a lot of their forward looking performance on that it will actually
Starting point is 00:36:51 happen says you know we have an agreement doesn't mean it'll happen it's like okay there's all this is this thing is amazing so Elon must house of cards that's a technical term yes so Elon is there and Elon is there because uh let me see I have it here X X AI will be is collaborating with human. By the way, whenever you call something as nefarious as AI, humane, like, that's like Patriot Act, you know, like, you know, there's nothing humane about it.
Starting point is 00:37:21 So there's a 500 megawatt data center project, which will use Nvidia chips and supposedly XAI's processing or their system or whatever. And... The right songs for the No Agenda Show. Exactly. It's really good for that. and then Musk just goes off on this
Starting point is 00:37:43 on this futuristic tangent that I just had the clip and share With Tesla we wanted to make electric cars compelling and affordable that was the goal with respect to
Starting point is 00:37:58 humanoid robotics there are no useful humanoid robotics robots at this point there are sort of gimmicks but there are no actually useful humanoid robots and I think Tesla is going to make the first actually useful humanoid robots
Starting point is 00:38:12 and this will be quite a revolution and I think something that everyone will want because I was thinking of like who wouldn't want their own personal C3PO R2 Oh yeah? Of course. Everyone would want one, right? Right.
Starting point is 00:38:29 And then there would be many in industry providing products and services. This is why I say that humanoid robots will be the biggest industry or the biggest product ever, bigger than cell phones or anything else because everyone's going to want one or maybe more than one, and there'll be many in industry. But AI and human road robots will actually eliminate poverty. My prediction is that work will be optional. Optional. Optional.
Starting point is 00:39:00 Yes, optional work. We'll take that. Yeah. I mean, it'll be like playing sports or a video game or something. like that. If you want to work, you know, in the same way, like, you can, you can go to the store and just buy some vegetables, or you could grow vegetables in your backyard. It's much harder to grow vegetables in your backyard, but some people still do it. I'm smelling ketamine. If you go out long enough, assuming there's a continued improvement in AI and robotics, which this seems likely, the money will stop being relevant at some point in the future. Okay, so he's taken the world economic forums you will own nothing and be happy to work will be optional
Starting point is 00:39:44 money will be irrelevant come on this is nuts that that's a shark jump of epic proportions you're a little insert there is probably right on the money yes i smell ketamine so i want to remind people of of a little history here we had That superstar, who I know, um, entrepreneur named Nolan Bushnell. Oh, Nolan. Yeah. Do you remember his robot?
Starting point is 00:40:19 No, I don't remember Nolan Bushnell at all. Well, Nolan Bushnell is a very famous guy, he started off by inventing Pong and then his, Chuckie Cheeses his thing too. But he had a bunch of companies and his big invention in 1983, he had a robot because this was the 83 I remember very clearly because I was writing the Topo robot
Starting point is 00:40:43 Topo. Topo. And the Topo was a big deal and it was the year of the robot. That's what everyone called it. If you look at all the computer magazines in that era, year of the robot, this is the year the robot. And they had an exhibit of Topo, the robot at Comdex, I believe, or CES, probably Comdex. And Topo's
Starting point is 00:41:05 The whole job was to go to, they had a stage set up, and Topo would go and make a route to the refrigerator, somehow open the door of the refrigerator and grab a beer and then bring the beer to the owner. It's a lot, it reminds me of the Ibo. Remember the Sony Ibo? That came much later. Yeah, I know. But the Sony Ibo was, oh, this is, you're all going to have a robot dog. Yeah. And it was like a $400 robot dog.
Starting point is 00:41:34 $400. I thought there was more than that. It was expensive. And it basically did nothing. So, all right. So since we're on history, then Jensen comes into talk. And this is the most bearish talk on AI that I've ever heard.
Starting point is 00:41:50 There's no news about, you know, how it's going to be smarter than human beings, smarter than the smartest professor. He's pretty realistic. Just as a reminder, he's the, his company, this has never been released.
Starting point is 00:42:05 information, but his company did a huge study on productivity of AI, and they could not find any positive benefits. So he's got a dim attitude about it. Yeah, well, MIT had published their paper and basically said the same. So, but he makes a claim here that I want to put to the test by asking you. Are we going to have an AI bubble? Well, so the question is, are we going to have an AI bubble? But he'll get into why, of course not.
Starting point is 00:42:39 That's the last question. All right, let's, well, let me just tell you what we see. Okay, so I think it's really important when you look at what's happening around the world and go back to first principles of what's happening in computer science and computing. There are three things that's happening. The first thing is that we all know that Moore's laws run its course and the ability that they... What? Moore's law has run its course.
Starting point is 00:43:07 Just so we can take this into context, please give us the definition of maybe some background on Moore's law. Yeah. Gordon Moore came up with this idea back in. He's from Intel, right? Gordon Moore. One of the founders of Intel decided that he noticed this because he worked at Fairchild, then he went to Intel, then they started Intel. and he felt that the number of transistors per square centimeter was doubling and it would continue
Starting point is 00:43:39 to double every, I think the initial thought was every 12 months, but then I think people changed Moore's Law to every 18 months the number of transistors will double, and that means that that means that the size, price, everything. Yeah, it would be at the same price. or lower? Yes, but twice as powerful. Because more transistors is more powerful, so you get more power for the same amount of money in the same die space. And that was the idea. And it was going to continue for an umpteenth years. It seems to still be in play, more or less. Well, not according to Jensen. It has run its course. Now it's more expensive.
Starting point is 00:44:28 thing is that... Well, for his company... Yeah, that's the way to go. Make it more expensive. That Moore's Laws run its course and the ability that the amount of demand for computing versus the amount of computation we can get out of general purpose computing is really challenging. And so the world's been moving to accelerated computing for some time.
Starting point is 00:44:46 We've been pushing this now for some over 20 years. I love the term. He doesn't call it AI. He calls it accelerated computing. Let me give you one statistic. I was just at super computing. Six years ago, CPUs were 90% of the world supercomputers, top 500 supercomputers, six years ago.
Starting point is 00:45:07 This year, less than 15%. Went from 90% to 10%. And meanwhile, accelerated computing went from the other way, 10% to now 90%. So you're seeing that inflection point, the transition in high-performance computing from general purpose of computing to accelerated computing. Well, one of the most data-intensive, one of the most intensive computation things that the world does in cloud is data processing. Several hundred billion dollars of computation is done on just raw data processing. It has nothing to do with AI.
Starting point is 00:45:39 Just SQL processing, data frames, you know, everybody's names, address, their sex, their age, where they live, you know, how much money do they make. All of that sits into a data frame. And that data frame drives the world today, whether it's in banking or, you know, whether it's in credit cards or, Of course, e-commerce and everything from ad recommendation and everything is driven off of that data frame. That data frame costs hundreds of billions of always to go to compute. And so that's the number one thing. End of Moore's Law. End of Moore's Law because we need accelerated computing to slice and dice your information.
Starting point is 00:46:15 Moore's Law has nothing to do with the kind of computing you do. It has to do with the number of transitions you can put on a die. It's neutral to what he's talking about. talking about what you got to do is just throw out words like data frames it's those data frames that are really the problem really don't understand why he's i think i'm trying no oh wait there's more i think you stumbled on to what he what he's trying to do yeah get ready get ready get ready there's a payoff even i got two more here the second thing is generative ai that's no agenda end of show mixes what the art and art yes the most important application of the last 15 years
Starting point is 00:46:55 is making art for the no agenda show. It's called Rexus. Rexus? Okay, here's a test. Do you know what Rexus is? I think he made it up. I think he made it up. I never heard of Rexis yet.
Starting point is 00:47:10 Of the last 15 years, it's called Rexus, recommender systems. How do we know what information to recommend to us in a social feed? So, so your Algo, it's Rexus. Oh, so. Oh, it's just different than what we had 25 years. years ago when Netflix first started and started recommending movies. If you
Starting point is 00:47:29 like this, you'll like this. Yes. Is that different? Is it somehow different? What he falls short of saying is that will, your refrigerator will know exactly when to order the milk. I mean, this is that level of bull crap. Bull crap. The worst. Here come. To recommend to
Starting point is 00:47:45 us in a social feed. How do you know what ad to recommend to somebody? What book to recommend? What movie to recommend? Oh, that's so hard. How about, hey, listen to Noah. a general show we give you tip of the day we give you uh interesting stock insights you don't need rexas for that you need a podcast the world is the internet is so
Starting point is 00:48:05 gigantic without a recommender system that the little tiny phone of us will have no chance i've ever seen the right information so without rexas that little tiny phone will have no chance whatsoever of receiving the right information this is bullshit it is bullshit Pardon me, but it is. Largely, it's mostly a retread of old ideas before AI and shoehorned into the AI model. Yes, we continue.
Starting point is 00:48:36 That rexis is the engine of the Internet today. It's the engine of the Internet. Oh. Okay, that's news to me. That's going generative AI. It used to be running on CPUs, now it runs on GPUs. Which then says the third thing, when, if you just look at those two applications, Many of the internet companies can build an enormous number of GPU supercomputers just doing that.
Starting point is 00:49:01 Of course, then it creates the third opportunity on top of it, which is agentic AI. This is rock and this is open AI. This is anthropic. Okay. So agentic AI, I'll just explain it real quick. Agentic AI is basically a Google search that you don't have to parse through. And I use it, you use it. You type something in.
Starting point is 00:49:21 Only an idiot wouldn't use it. Yeah, it goes out of. It says, okay, I found 40 web pages. I'm going to read these. It's pretty good at that. I'm going to summarize these. I'm going to do some basic reasoning. Look at the contradictions.
Starting point is 00:49:33 And I'm going to say, well, it looks like this is your answer, which is 30 to 50 times more expensive than throwing up a web page of rank page or page rank results. And no ads, no way to monetize, and very expensive. That is agentic AI. You know, this is Gemini. Agentic AI sits on top. of that. But don't, you know, don't forget to think about what is happening above, underneath
Starting point is 00:50:00 what everybody sees as AI today. What? Don't forget. Whatever you do, don't forget, which basically means forget. Don't forget what's going on above underneath over there. This, it's just not what you're seeing. It's magic behind the scenes. Above, underneath what everybody sees as AI today. There's a whole movement of computer. From general purpose of computing to accelerated computing. And that, if you take that into consideration, you'll come to the conclusion that, in fact, what is left over to fuel that revolutionary agentic AI is not only substantially less than you thought, and all of it is justified. All of it. Isn't sales force? All of it, what?
Starting point is 00:50:46 Justified. It's all justified. What do you mean justified? What does that mean? It's justified. What do you mean it's justified? When you're sanctified, you're justified. but don't what is it tell me what it means I don't know hey Adam it's justified
Starting point is 00:51:00 that means the expense that you're putting into this is justified take it for me I'm saying it that way if you say that I can believe that's maybe what he meant one positive thing he was wearing a suit he was not wearing no he wasn't wearing
Starting point is 00:51:14 his cheap the leather thing no he was not cheap at all but super expensive he was not wearing the motorcycle jacket a suit a tie and now is he the final clip from me I don't think he needs a tie in this era. It's the Saudis. He needs the money.
Starting point is 00:51:29 He needs the money to go into everything to buy his chips. 600,000 chips, GPUs. So now he's going to go off the rails with all of the... I think the ships are like, what do they cost? I think they're either $3,000 or $6,000 a pop. The full GPU, yeah. The GPU unit. That one GPU, that's super expensive.
Starting point is 00:51:51 Well, you can get them up to $30,000. or more. I mean, they have all kinds of gear. But the low level, low end, $39.99, if you can get it. Anyway, $3,999. So now he's going to bring into this humane thing, which is like, hey, guys, you're going to buy this for me. And look at all the cool things you'll be able to do with it. We're announcing, we're announcing all kinds of things. All kinds of things. Our partnership with humane is going incredibly well. First of all, we work together to get this company started and off to ground and just got an incredible customer with Elon. Could you imagine a startup company approximately zero billion dollars in revenues now going to build a data center for Elon
Starting point is 00:52:37 500 megawatts is gigantic. This company is off the charts right away. Did he say can you imagine a cover with zero billion dollars in sales? That's exactly what he said. Why doesn't he just say with no sales? what do you mean zero with zero trillion dollars when jensen's the point of that most it's a propagandistic way of saying stating it most people when they get up they just put on their pants one leg at a time jensen gets up and he thinks billions even if it's zero this show makes zero billion dollars a year and can you imagine can you imagine a podcast that started by making zero billion dollars a year. It's amazing.
Starting point is 00:53:23 $0 billion in revenues. Now, going to build a data center for Elon. 500 megawatts is gigantic. This company is off the charts right away. No, it's not. It's not even built. There's nothing built. It's up to charge right away.
Starting point is 00:53:39 It was zero billions. In addition to that, we're working AWS, as you know, is also coming. Congratulations. To the humane team with AWS. Yeah, congratulations. With a gigawatts with a gigawatts ambition.
Starting point is 00:53:55 Mary McCord. So AWS is also coming to Humane. We're working with Humane on Omniverse Digital Twins. Omniverse Digital Twins. Oh man, I'm hanging on his every word now. As you know, that AI is not just... Wait.
Starting point is 00:54:12 Huh? What the hell is Omniverse Digital Twins? It's, I don't know, but I want some. I need it. After my robots. I need some Omniverse Digital Twins. This is smoke. He's off the rails. What happened to him? It gets better.
Starting point is 00:54:28 U.S. is also community Humane. We're working with Humane on Omniverse Digital Twins. As you know, that AI is not just agenic AI and chatbots and cognitive AI is. No, it's exactly what it
Starting point is 00:54:44 is. It's chat bots and questions and chatbots. and art and videos. It's nothing. You know that... An Omniverse Digital Twin is a physically accurate, real-time vertical replica of an object,
Starting point is 00:55:04 process, or environment created on the Invidia Omniverse platform. The Omniverse platform. What is the Omniverse platform? It integrates with Enterprise Eco... This is good gobbledy gook. Listen to this. It's great. It integrates with Enterprise Eco.
Starting point is 00:55:20 I wish I had the right voice for it. It integrates with enterprise ecosystems connecting real-world data from sources like Internet of Things sensors, M-E-S, and ERP systems to the photorealistic 3D model for visualization and analysis. This enables companies to simulate, optimize, and monitor operations in a virtual space, improving design, planning, and efficiency for applications raising from factories and data, centers to and it goes on and on and on this he should uh he should uh cut his hair into a mohawk that's a very inside joke good one though thank you as you know that AI is not just well it just agentic AI and chatbots and cognitive AI is incredibly important to the world but AI applies to everything chemicals and proteins and genes and physics and fluid dynamics and particles and of course robotics and activation and we created this world called omnivorce yeah it's
Starting point is 00:56:25 important to activate what the hell's that about activation baby it's activation robotics and activation and um and we created this world called omniverse where robots can learn how to be good robots and oh the omniverse teaches robots how to be good robots there it is that's what robots are we talking about the ones that don't exist yet oh yeah yeah um and we created this world called omniverse where robots can learn how to be good robots and and it's physically based obeys the laws of physics and so robots can learn don't all robots have to obey the laws of physics doesn't everything in the physical world have to obey the laws of physics i mean come on so
Starting point is 00:57:10 world called omniverse where robots can learn what else could it do and how to be good robots and and it's physically based here comes the kicker obeys the laws of physics and so robots can learn in these environments and we're working with humane to
Starting point is 00:57:27 apply omniverse to all kinds of digital factories and robotics and warehouses and things like that digital factories do what do the digital factories make digital cars No, just digital. Now wait for it because here's the kicker.
Starting point is 00:57:43 And so that's another. We're also working in Saudi Arabia to build supercomputers to simulate quantum computers. And using our computers to be the controller and the error correction, one quantum error correction, requires an enormous amount of computation. And so we're doing a lot of great work there, too. A big partnership with Humane, they're off the charts, off the ground and off the charts at the same time. ground off the charts we're going to simulate quantum computing okay come on so no wonder okay that's that's the end the stock is down yeah so just as a simulate quantum what that makes zero sense they can't make a
Starting point is 00:58:30 quantum computer how can you simulate something you can't make okay to balance that bull crap this is like is the worst case example of that this is going back to our silicon valley days where this would have silicon valley speak he's reinvigorated it yes and they've decided to make their own linguistic uh model off the ground and off the charts and by the way activation does somehow fit in with omnib whatever the hell it is what was i can't find the definition for it what was that j the the word that j c came up with the phrase that that is being used it's like what is not what is the trend I can't remember what he has a bunch of these he's tracked a bunch of I don't remember we need to write him down means to write him down because
Starting point is 00:59:17 yeah we do because this is getting good it's almost like back in the web design days what is the conceit of your website well I'm going to tell you not concept conceit all right to balance this out three clips relatively short except for the first one Ned Block, professor at New York University, Department of Philosophy and Psychology. And there's a very long interview. It's really good. And he wrote a paper and he says, you know, Chad GBT, or he says Chad GBT, but in general, he means large language models, AI, has no intelligence. And he wrote a paper about it.
Starting point is 01:00:00 Mere intelligent responding does not show intelligence of the machine that is doing the responding because the machine's responses can be just conduits for something that somebody has put into it. Am I right that maybe in this paper you referred to it as a string searcher? Yeah, yeah, yeah. And that became the blockhead. That was one version of it, yeah. So the paper is titled Psychologism and Behaviorism. What is
Starting point is 01:00:29 Psychologism? And then how does that connect? Psychologism is the very minimal thesis that in order for behavior to reflect thought, you need an internal processing condition. But since we don't know what thought is, we can't really say what the internal processing condition is. But behavior isn't good enough.
Starting point is 01:00:53 That's the idea of it. And the reason this has come up in regard to, chat GPT is that people realize that chat GPT is very behavior dominated and, you know, there's a recent paper by Raphael Millier and Cameron Buckner
Starting point is 01:01:09 which raised the question of the chat GPTs and another large language models intelligence in terms of to the extent to which it isn't a block ed. So the idea is that
Starting point is 01:01:25 it isn't just reproducing what was in the in the in the in the in the database although i have to say that there are a lot of things that um a chat ch pt does that are very very memory dominated and he gives us two examples which we can replicate ourselves everybody bring up your chat ch pt this is this is one we already knew but they still haven't been able to fix it and of course it's because there's no intelligence it doesn't actually understand your question and doesn't doesn't know how to interpret it and give you the correct answer, it just gives you whatever string it found that kind of matches your query and it spits it out. Try this. Ask it to draw a picture
Starting point is 01:02:09 of a group of watches showing three minutes after 12. Okay, so the minute hand and the hour hand are very close together. What you will get is 10 after 10. And if you do try to do 628 where his hands are very close together, you'll get 10 after 10 again. And the reason for this is that the pictures of clocks and watches on the web are dominated by 10 after 10 because it's the most attractive look. Absolutely. I think we've tried that one that wasn't new to me. But this one, this one is even better.
Starting point is 01:02:47 Everybody in OpenAI knows about this and they have been unable to cure it. Oh, yeah, everybody, this is a widespread example that people, It's been an example that people have pointed to for years. And they still can't figure it out. Well, I mean, they could, maybe there's some artificial way to do it. They can hard-coded. But to get the machine, you know, the thing they used to deal with problems like this is called reinforcement training. That's your hard-coding.
Starting point is 01:03:13 The reinforcement training hasn't worked. Probably because there are too many times other than 10 after 10 that would have to be reinforced. I'll give you a second example. ask Chachybtee to draw a picture of somebody writing with their left hand. Yeah, you will get a right-handed writer every single time, every single time. So there's no intelligence in this stuff. It's just sucked it all up. But we know he's known that.
Starting point is 01:03:44 I know, but this is fun for people to go to their friends and neighbors. And, you know, you're going to have Thanksgiving and everyone's going to be, oh, yeah, why don't you ask it to draw a picture of a clock that says 628? Why don't you ask it to find a picture for you of someone writing left-handed? And then you will be amazing at this Thanksgiving dinner. People are like, wow, wow, maybe it's not smart. Just a thought. Just a thought.
Starting point is 01:04:17 Well, I don't know how many Thanksgiving dinners you've been to, but I have never been to one where somebody has a computer at the table. Everybody has their phone, their phone. Anyway, now let's go to Epstein because this was the big, big, big, big story. And there were just some great moments in some of the mainstream reporting and coming out of the White House. The Senate approved the bill without even holding a vote after near unanimous approval by the House. By the way, who pushed that? What?
Starting point is 01:04:50 I hope they mentioned who pushed the bill through without the vote. It wasn't. Schumer. It was Schumer. It was Schumer. They were Schumerized. Yeah, okay. You made your point. The Senate approved the bill without even holding a vote after near unanimous approval by the House Tuesday. The bill is passed. All of it is highly unusual in the city accustomed to political gridlock. The law orders the Justice Department to release all unclassified documents relating to Epstein and his associates within 30 days.
Starting point is 01:05:20 We'll continue to follow the law and to have maximum transparency. There's potentially one big roadblock for transparency ahead. A new investigation ordered by the president who told Attorney General Pam Bondi to investigate ties between Epstein and prominent Democrats. The Justice Department and FBI previously said they did not uncover evidence that could predicate an investigation against uncharged third parties. Now on Trump's orders, the Attorney General has... changed her mind. What changed since then that you launched this investigation? Information that has come for information. I've got information, man. New shit has come to light. There's information that new information, additional information.
Starting point is 01:06:09 Oh, man. This is going to be such a disappointment for everybody. Because we already know, we just need the names. Massey already basically said it. when he was cross-examining Cash Patel, and it's going to be some fun names. And, you know, we already understand a couple of them, and just to regurgitate them, here are the names that will be found in the files. These aren't the names, but you can guess most of them. According to victims who cooperated with the FBI in that investigation, these documents in FBI possession, your possession, detail at least 20 men, including Mr. S. Staley, CEO of Barclay's Bank. By the way, another takedown of the Brits with another British victim of the Epstein
Starting point is 01:07:00 Revelations, after we had Prince Andrew, after we had Mandelson, the ambassador to the U.S. from the U.K., now it's the Barclays Bank CEO, oopsie. Who Jeffrey Epstein trafficked victims to, victims including minors, such as Virginia Roberts, free, may she rest in peace. That list also includes at least 19 other individuals, one Hollywood producer. One Hollywood producer. Dana Brunetti? Seems unlikely. You never know. He's hidden on the ranch. You don't know. Okay. But you know what? I bet you he knows who it is. I bet you he does too. And he's going to tell us. If I stop pestering him about his Tesla. Tesla's are great. Now tell us, tell us, tell us. All right. If you say that, he'll tell us everything.
Starting point is 01:07:51 Okay. I love Teslas. I wish I had a Tesla. Worth a few hundred million dollars. One royal prince, one high profile individual in the music industry. Hmm, high profile individual. That could be anybody. But I'm thinking Clive. Yeah, but Clive is gay, and they only have
Starting point is 01:08:07 female victims. Clive is gay. He's gay as a $3 bill. He's part of the Diddy thing. He got out of that. He got off Scott Free. He was definitely part of I don't know it could be. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:08:24 Maybe it was Diddy. He could be deemed. Yeah, he could be deemed. Yeah. Anyway, that would have been. He'd been caught up in that by now. Let's continue. One very prominent banker.
Starting point is 01:08:35 That will be. I got these guy. Well, he already. Or there's another banker. Well, it's got to be someone of J.P. Morgan Chase. And I don't, I don't think it's Jamie Diamond, but it's got to be one level below. him because the things that J.P. Morgan Chase was doing with his money. How much do you need? Cash? 800,000? Okay. Send 50 grand to that girl. Yeah, it has to be somebody, J.P. Morgan. You're
Starting point is 01:08:59 right. Yeah. One high profile government official. Now, Clinton. It has to be Clinton. Yeah, of. Yeah, of course. I don't. One high profile former politician. Well, that could also be Clinton. Well, that could be Clinton, too. He's in there twice. So there's got to be at least one of. I, there could be so many. We don't, this one we did. This is a, a mystery. We will soon know. One owner of a car company. That's got to be the Ferrari guy. In Italy.
Starting point is 01:09:25 You think I don't think you did. No. Well, listen, listen, listen, listen, listen. One high profile former politician. One owner of a car company in Italy. Come on. In Italy. What other guy in Italy? Fiat. Ah.
Starting point is 01:09:40 Maybe. Ferrari guys don't need to go to this place. Come on. Okay. They got one Rari's to drive around. They can get anyone they want. Hey, baby. I want a ride? One rock star.
Starting point is 01:09:53 One rock star. Well, you should know who this is. If Renetti knows who the producer is, you have to know who this is. I'm hoping it's Bono. That would just, that would, that would, that would, that would. Oh, that would really be perfect. That would be great.
Starting point is 01:10:06 That would be great. That would be excellent. One magician. That's got to be Copperfield. There's no other magician. One magician. What other magician? And Copperfield, I think he was on.
Starting point is 01:10:18 on one of the flights, wasn't he? Wasn't he in the flight log? Was he? Well, then it would be him. Yeah. And he always... He looks like the kind of guy that would be... It looks like that kind of guy. He just has a look. At least six billionaires, including a billionaire from Canada. We know these people exist in the FBI files, the files that you control. I don't know exactly who they are, but the FBI does. Yeah. So we'll find out.
Starting point is 01:10:45 And six billionaires will include Bill. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, Bill. And five other billionaire or four others and one in Canada. Yeah. The Canadian billionaire is probably a property guy. Now, but notice Massey didn't say these girls were underage. Trafficking can be transporting someone across state lines,
Starting point is 01:11:08 even if it's with their cooperation. It's all so sketchy. What we really want to know is what about, about MI6? What about Mossad? What about CIA? What about these connections? What about your connections to MIT? Joy Ito. Come on. This is the stuff that we care about. Everyone's pedophiles. It's going to be less than you think. Pretty sure of that. It's going to be disappointing. It's always disappointing. That's the whole theme that we've noticed over almost over 18 years of doing the No Agenda era. Yes. Well, they scrubbed Trump out of it, man. That's why he had, that's why he had the 30 days. Scrubbed him. Scrubbed him right out. Scrubbed him out.
Starting point is 01:11:56 so yeah well that's not going to fly it doesn't make any sense no okay so there's a new op we already felt it coming now it's definitely on deck the op is uh you might have noticed there's not a lot of Israel hate lately not as much as they used to be now it's Islam Muslims the Muslims the Muslims in Texas, baby. So every... Yes, I don't... Did I have a clip on this? Oh, I have a couple.
Starting point is 01:12:30 Do you have anything? I'm looking because I remember... Because this, you're right. There's been two or three things. They've re... Maybe, no, I thought, well, one of the TikTokers went off about this, but I don't have it.
Starting point is 01:12:43 It's their, they're bitching about, you know, that Muslim compound that are by Fort Worth or wherever it is. Which doesn't even exist yet. It doesn't exist yet, but they've already renamed it to the meadow. Yes. So that's just, and this, by the way, this is rampant in Fredericksburg. Everyone's texting, every but the same thing where you see this.
Starting point is 01:13:02 Sharia law in Texas. You see this map zoom in. And it's like, they built 48 mosques in two years, which that I actually went and did some digging, not true at all. And Texas is a big place. 48 mosques, you know, there's 300,000 churches in America. It's not like we have to be all of a sudden be super afraid. But now this is the new meme. We know that Flynn brought a whole bunch of influencers to D.C. to talk about the danger of Islam. And this is kind of... You think that's what triggered this whole thing? No, I can tell you exactly what triggered it. And this is from a, this is a group that's working on this op. It is a total op. It's all political. It's all about the midterms. I have no doubt about it. This is... So the op supposed to accomplish
Starting point is 01:13:53 a more a Democrat, bigger blue wave? No, no, no. The op is supposed to accomplish the opposite, the red wave? Yeah, yeah, red, of course, because it all started. But they're not going to do it through Muslim hate. Ah, but they're going to, you have to understand, this, the rare foundation, which is not a foundation as far as I can tell, resistance against Islamic radicals, R-A-I-R, which is a fun little take on C-A-I-R, the Council of American Islamic Relations. They don't really have as much juice as I thought they would.
Starting point is 01:14:31 I said juice, J-U-I-C-E. But this is the kind of stuff that they put out, and it all started with Mondami. On Rare TV, we are naming the threat plainly. Our enemies have placed a dangerous foreign infiltrator inside New York's government, and his name is Zoranam. and under federal law, he has been eligible to be stripped of a citizenship and deported. The question is, why is our government not acting?
Starting point is 01:15:00 Mamdani became a U.S. citizen in 2018. Under federal law, specifically 8 U.S.C. Section 1451A, citizenship can be revoked if it was obtained by concealment or misrepresentation, or if within five years, the individual affiliates with communist, totalitarian, or terrorist, movements. Mumdani did exactly that. Oh! He publicly defended the Holy Land Five. The men convicted on 108 counts of financing Hamas.
Starting point is 01:15:32 No, I can't find any evidence of this, nor do they show any evidence or link to any evidence. They just say it. He is a card-carrying member of the DSA. I don't think the DSA has cards. I don't think they have cards, no. This is a Bank of America card. it's not a master card it's not a political party it's a socialist Marxist group who do auditions and train people who look good theater kids and put him into positions of powers nothing to do with him being Muslim has everything to him being the right guy like aOC it's the same thing it's not you can't carry the car also the tattoo guy up in Maine yeah that they're tattoo guy the largest Marxist operation in America openly aligned with foreign
Starting point is 01:16:19 communist parties in Cuba, Europe, Asia, Africa, and Latin America. Openly allied. What does it even mean? He expressed allegiance to the Communist Party of India in 2020, well inside the five-year window. And he glorified Hamas' U.S. finance arm in a 2017 recording before he took the oath of citizenship. Okay. So this is now propagated by influences everywhere because this is the thing you've got to jump on. And by the way, Candace Owens, you better jump to this because the Israel thing is over. Now, and everyone has now moved over to Muslims. And what they're all pointing towards, of course, is, well, this is what happened in the UK.
Starting point is 01:17:01 This is what happened in Europe. Well, absolutely. Oh, yeah, you can do the UK analogy. That's a good idea. Absolutely. That might get you some votes. But, but, and it's intended to do that. That's exactly what it's intended for.
Starting point is 01:17:13 Here's one of the influencers, American Lumberjack. This, what you're seeing on your screen right now, is not another country. It's America. Don't even know if it's America, but okay, we'll take his word for it. A bunch of chanting Muslims. Gathering here of Muslims was in the city of Irving, Texas, where two Sharia law courts are operating and have already ruled on over 300 cases. Now, do you understand how serious this Islam problem is America? Yes, two Islamic tribunals
Starting point is 01:17:47 operate in the United States functioning as voluntary arbitration panels applying Sharia law and Sharia principles in civil disputes like divorce and inheritance. This is how it starts, just like the U.K., slow at first. And then boom, it's here. And then boom, it's here. These setups comply with Texas arbitration laws.
Starting point is 01:18:11 So did you hear the meme in there? 48 mosques in two years. It's just not true. By the way, the map you're showing, that's a pretty big area. That's a big area. So, yeah, there's mosques all over America. Big deal. They portray it as all these Muslims.
Starting point is 01:18:30 They're in there. They're all doing Sharia law. They're going around American law. They don't care. They're going to take us over. They're going to the enemy from within. According to the Constitution of the United States of America, there is no other law allowed in the land except for the constitution. And if this wasn't bad enough,
Starting point is 01:18:48 the NYPD is teaching people how to wear hijabs. Oh, hijabs. Oh, yes. Oh, oh, oh my gosh. Hijabs. He jobs. He jobs. He jobs. Let's vote for he jobs. Yeah. He jobs. Oh, we're going to be very afraid. So this is working because Abbott, I think, is under fire. This is why they're talking about Texas. Abbott is under fire. He's not universally loved in Texas for a whole bunch of reasons. Yeah, he jumps. Well, he doesn't jump, but he comes into action when, you know, there's a flood or something else going on. So he immediately feels there's something wrong.
Starting point is 01:19:29 I got to do something about this. I got to jump on this. All right. Let's stay in Texas because Governor Greg Abbott made news this morning by declaring two groups as foreign terrorist organizations. Let's go to our Breaking News Corp. Breaking news. Who's been following the story for us. Breaking.
Starting point is 01:19:44 The newsroom in New York, Shalal, what did the governor have to say today? Well, he made this announcement, Mugo, this morning through this proclamation, essentially now designating two groups, the Muslim Brotherhood and the Council on American Islamic Relations as foreign terrorist groups. Okay, so a proclamation, whatever, it's just a statement. But it's the Muslim Brotherhood that we're bringing back. Oh, the Muslim Brotherhood. Brotherhood. Yes, yes, yes. Which is the creation of the MI6, I believe. Well, let's just, actually, we could, didn't I have that Galloway thing? We should probably
Starting point is 01:20:22 play that here. Here we go. This is George Galloway. We played it on the previous episode. Here he goes. Indeed, this has long and inglorious history. The British invented it, as in so much else. We helped found and nourished, nurtured the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt in the early
Starting point is 01:20:51 1950s so that we could use them against the Arab nationalist leader Gamal Abdel Nasser, President Nasser. We invented the Muslim Brotherhood. It was invented in London
Starting point is 01:21:07 and it was, it's first outing, though not its last, was to undermine the pan-Arabic message of the Nassarists. And, well, we've fallen out with the Muslim Brotherhood from time to time, but occasionally they can still be useful to each other, if you get my drift. All right, so I knew this was an op for sure when I saw not one, but two guests pop up on Bannon's war room talking about this. Oh, oh, Muslims, Muslims. Who are Muslims?
Starting point is 01:21:44 I have to ask you this, what do you think? Do you think Bannon would be part of an op like this? Or you think he's been so kicked out of the circle of ops that he's just a dupe? No, no, no. When you hear him talk, he's in on the op. The first guy is John Gwondolo, former FBI special agent counterterror. expert. In 2022, he organized training sessions for right-wing citizens about the perceived threat of communist and jihadist networks and to organize communities into operational forces to identify
Starting point is 01:22:22 roots of corruption and dismantle the hostile networks behind it. And here it comes. And reestablish a Republican form of government at the local level, which were joined by former Trump National Security Advisor Michael Flynn. So this is a Flynn guy And I think pretty sure Bannon's in on the op Talk to me about the state of Texas I would assume since Texas is one of the
Starting point is 01:22:46 Great Christian states in the union That we don't have a problem down there With his Islamic jihad creeping in sir Yeah I think you know better than that So about 15 You know better than that Because you're read in on the op sir You know you're read in
Starting point is 01:23:03 You know better than that So about 15 years Actually, that's what he said. Yeah, you know better than that. Why are you siring me? You know this is an option. Christian states in the union that we don't have a problem down there with his Islamic jihad creeping in, sir. I wonder if he actually is his superior.
Starting point is 01:23:21 He has rank over him for some reason. Bannon has to say, sir. I mean, he was a naval guy after all. That's possible. Yeah, I think you know better than that. So about 15 years ago, I'm going to back up and just quickly mention this. You know, we had in Tennessee the jihadi... Wait, hold, let's stop this clip.
Starting point is 01:23:41 So first of all, he says you know better than that as though they're already into the script way too far. And then right away, he's going to back up. Oh, yeah. Back up to what? What do you're backing up for? Why don't you just answer the question? I mean, what are you backing up?
Starting point is 01:23:54 I'm going to back up. All will become relevant in a moment. Oh, brother. Just quickly mention this. You know, we had in Tennessee, the jihadi, the Islamic Movement, North America, and specifically the United States targeted Tennessee. And my professional assessment is they took Tennessee under a Republican governor, by the way,
Starting point is 01:24:15 which is what we're seeing in Texas. It took Tennessee. It's a playbook. Did he say they took Tennessee? He says they took Tennessee under a Republican governor. This is an attack on Abbott. The whole thing is multifaceted, but it is an attack on Abbott. Oh, that's very good again.
Starting point is 01:24:34 Under a Republican governor, by the way. Yeah, they're going after Abbott because Abbott is, I don't know, not towing the line or who knows what. They targeted Tennessee and especially Nashville initially. Nashville. Has it become a hotbed of Muslim activity and jihadists? Is Sharia law in place in Nashville? No. That doesn't sound right.
Starting point is 01:25:02 No. Because of the fact. They viewed it as the buckle of the Bible belt, if you will. When they took it, you know, about seven and a half years ago, they sent one of their most significant Islamic jurists, a guy named Yasser Khadhi, to Texas. And when he moved from Memphis at the Memphis Islamic Center to Texas, I alerted some of my colleagues, including, you know,
Starting point is 01:25:32 guys like Frank Gaffney, who you know well and have had on the show, but others, friends of mine that do this work a little more under the radar. Under the radar. And we knew that that meant that the jihadi movement, the Islamic movement in the United States was targeting Texas. Okay. So got other guys under the radar.
Starting point is 01:25:53 When Frank Gaffney comes up, I'm like, hold on a second. We've been doing this show for 18 years. Let me go back 15. Let me see if I can find a clip that is maybe similar to this. House is moving toward developing ties with the Muslim Brotherhood and other Islamist groups in the Middle East. This is when Obama was president and the same memes, everything was used, same guys, same people, we're going to be taken over, Sharia law. National Journal reports the president believes he has no choice, but to cultivate the brotherhood and other groups he believes are relatively moderate. One State Department official tells the magazine, quote, the war on terror is.
Starting point is 01:26:34 is over. And now the Arab world may find a route to democracy through Islamism, but those moves may hurt the president politically. CBN News Terrorism analyst Eric Stackleback joins us now for more on this story. Eric, you attended an event earlier today, I understand about the Muslim Brotherhood. What did you find out? Lee, very timely event with what Wendy just described, the Obama administration is obviously openly now embracing Islamist groups like the Muslim Brotherhood. Well, today at the National Press Club here in Washington, D.C., the Center for Security Policy had a really eye-opening event, Lee. They are releasing a 10-part online instructional course, online video instructional course for the average American, all about the Muslim
Starting point is 01:27:20 Brotherhood. It's called the Muslim Brotherhood in America. It breaks down this group, what they're all about, and why they're so dangerous. And we spoke to Frank Gaffney, Lee, the press. president of the center of security policy. Let's look at that now. So, same thing. We're teaching people. That's what Guantalo is doing, training, training for citizens, be afraid of the scary Muslims. Let's get, it's so good with social media. Just have people showing maps and like, oh, zooming in. Look at all these mosques. Oh, no, it's horrible. And they bring back Frank Gaffney. Jihad, which is commanded by Sharia, takes more than one form. We are not winning, a war that we honestly are not even recognizing we're in against jihadists that are using not just violence against us, but civilization jihad as well. And Lee, I think that was a real takeaway from this event today, what Frank Gaffney just said.
Starting point is 01:28:21 There are many forms of jihad that our enemies are using, and not only violent jihad, for the Muslim Brotherhood, it is a stealthy type, Frank Gaffney called it civilization jihad. Their philosophy is, hey, we don't have to blow you up now. We can win through elections. We can get jobs in the media. The government slowly, slowly infiltrate. And then the final stage is, yes, violent jihad. This is all about getting everybody riled up for the midterms.
Starting point is 01:28:52 I'm already seeing people running for... Can I ask this? Yeah. Do they mention during these interviews back and forth and back and forth that the entire, the totality of the Muslim population in the United States amounts to 1.3%. 1.3% of the population? No, of course not, of which maybe 200,000 live in Texas. No, but it's...
Starting point is 01:29:18 I doubt, I doubt, well, I think it's 200,000. Maybe. Could be a couple hundred thousand in Texas. But the thing is, the epic thing, now renamed as Meadow. I mean, those AI videos of what it's going to look like, have been going around for, oh, at least two years now. Right, they haven't even dug a hole yet. No.
Starting point is 01:29:36 And, and, and the, the church ladies are beyond themselves. Oh, half of the pastors who have, there's these, you know, there's pastors, these younger guys, like 40 and all of YouTube podcast. And they have, hold on a second. You said 40. Well, that's, I know, I know. But that, that, that, in Pastor Land, that's young. And they have like the YouTube award behind them. I've already seen enough.
Starting point is 01:30:03 Dude, really? You got your YouTube award. So what is important to you? Your YouTube award. All right, fine. That's idolatry. It's definitely. It's pride.
Starting point is 01:30:13 It's idolatry. And they're more interested in clicks. And so they're all in on it because, you know, this is what I'm sure if you're talking from the pulpit about, well, we can't have the Muslims coming in. Yeah, preach, I preach. No.
Starting point is 01:30:29 This is done. And I had two more clips from Bannon. Here's a continuation with the Gwondolo. And what we've seen is Yasser Kadi, who is arguably, if not the top, one of the top Islamic jurists in the United States, came to Texas, moved to Plano, became an Islamic jurist at the East Plano. You've got to jump in. Okay, hang on. Slow down. Slow down.
Starting point is 01:30:56 Slow down. Slow down. Slow down. Whoa, whoa, whoa, slow down. When you say he's jurist, you're saying a guy that is the, like a Supreme Court, a guy on Sharia law, correct? Very good. And we try to do and we should take it. And I'm going to get back to Tennessee in a moment.
Starting point is 01:31:12 You say, take it what they want. And this is what Frank Gaffney has preached for two decades. It's about Sharia supremacism. That is absolutely correct. And you just hit on a couple really important points. Brilliant. First of all, Sharia is real law. We have a lot of people who pose as, quote,
Starting point is 01:31:29 moderate Muslims, you know, you're Rahil Razas, your Kata Ahmeds who go on Fox News and CNN, and they say, you know, there's Islam and there's Islamism. There's Sharia and there's Sharia law. And they try to parse this out. When you get Sharia, you get the whole bag of worms. And it is really important for everyone to understand that Sharia states that the purpose of Islam... Hold on a second. standing as it's always a can of worms. I've never heard of a bag of worms. Correct. It is really important for everyone to understand that
Starting point is 01:32:11 Sharia states that the purpose of Islam is to wage war against the non-Muslim community until Sharia is imposed on the earth, period. Ah, Sharia, on the earth, period, everywhere. Oh, yeah. You know, by the way, this explains
Starting point is 01:32:27 I don't have these clips. But now that you brought this up, I would, I should, if I had an eye out for this a little sooner, unfortunately, we don't discuss anything. No. Well, fortunately, there has been at least three women TikTokers that have come on to extolling the virtues. Oh, I was, I turned, I'm a Muslim. And they go, the young dipshit types. And they're going on and on about how they're now, you know, and it's disturbing.
Starting point is 01:32:56 And I think it's part of the op. Oh, yeah. Well, it's the I Love Jesus trick. This is, since you brought it up, I wasn't going to play it, but I will play this once again from rare TV. Beware Christians from London to Texas. Beware Christians from London to Texas, because that's a connection I make every day. A dangerous and well-funded campaign is spreading across the West, seeking to deceive believers and to thinking that the Jesus of the Bible is the same as the Issa of Islam. They are pouring millions into glossy billboards, t-shirts,
Starting point is 01:33:31 and high-tech Islamic recruitment videos trying to convince Christians that Muslims love Jesus too. So as you guys can see, I love Jesus because I'm Muslim. This is our first line of merch that we have released because our program is Da'a, which is inviting, educating non-Muslims, Americans about Islam. One of the biggest misconceptions in our society,
Starting point is 01:33:51 particularly in the West, is that people don't understand about our love for Jesus Christ, peace be upon them. I love Jesus because I'm a Muslim. Before I was a Muslim, I had no idea that Jesus, prayers and peace be upon him, I had no idea that he even had a place in Islam. Jesus is revered in Islam. When I was a Christian, I had a love and respect and admiration for Jesus.
Starting point is 01:34:14 As a Muslim, that doesn't end. It only grew. But behind the slick marketing lies a darker truth, a global operation to blur the line between Christianity and Islam. To weaken believers, draw you from the cross and expand the UMA in preparation for an Islamic world's order. The rise of a caliphate. The rise. Oh, wait, wait.
Starting point is 01:34:36 The rise of the caliphate! So you have basically, with that clip, through in at least three TikTok clips, you know, kind of a subtext. So I object to that. I was a good clip overall except for the fact that you're so am. Anti. That was her clip. I didn't put that together. But you play. Yeah, okay. Only because you brought it up. I did bring it up. And it was and I wish I had the clips. My clips are a little different, but it's the same exact thing. It's part of, I think you, well, let's start with this. I'm only complaining about you complaining. But I will say that this op, which will lose us another group of listeners as we normally do with everything. I'm just saying right now, we're going to lose, we're going to lose support because we can't, every time we reveal ops, which are obvious once you, you deconstruct them,
Starting point is 01:35:40 the more you play, the more obvious it is. Yeah, people get mad. And by the way, in my opinion, this particular op, if we're going to just go with it 100% is lame. I don't, this is the, if this is the, if this is the, best they can do. This has got to be some part Bannon's group or something. This is lame. This is going to get no, this is not going to drive
Starting point is 01:36:03 the vote. No, of course not. This is pathetic. But there's money to be made. The minute Flynn is in on this stuff, because that's what we first heard about it. He brought all That's right. Don't forget Bannon. Didn't Bannon built some of the wall? Yeah. Yeah. By the way, when we do
Starting point is 01:36:19 ops, we're not trying to win the approval of human beings. We're trying to tell you something. We're to give you truth here. Eh, you can't handle the truth. So here's the last one. This is another Bannon guy. They can handle the truth.
Starting point is 01:36:32 The good producers can handle the truth. Of course. Yeah, the good ones can. So this is another guy. If I hadn't seen two guys in one week, it would have been less convincing that Bannon's in on it. This is Peter McElvenna. And Peter McElvena, he is a co-founder of Hearts of Oak,
Starting point is 01:36:53 a UK-based Freedom of Speech Alliance. So there could be a North Sea nexus element to this, considering the Muslim Brotherhood is a UK invention. So, you know, there may be an angle to this we haven't quite seen yet, but here's him. Texas, by the end of the decade, will have more mosques than any other state in the U.S. At the moment, California, I think, has got around 400 mosques, Texas is around 350. but Texas added 50 mosques over the last 24 months. So he's taken it from 48 to 50 now.
Starting point is 01:37:32 So now it's 50 over. This is the meme, 48 and two years. He's taken it to 50. And that is rapidly increasing in early. It's rapidly increasing. No evidence, but it's rapidly increasing. And that is rapidly increasing in Irving where I was. Hang on, hang on, hang on, slow down.
Starting point is 01:37:53 That's good. That's good. We've added how many mosques in the last 24 months? This is an outrage. 48 mosques in the last 24 months, and that is rapidly increasing. Rapidly. Rapidly. And where I was. Hang on.
Starting point is 01:38:07 They're opening multiple mosques per month in the state of Texas. Yes, sounds surprised. Yes, and this is not Epic City issue, which is one area that everyone is focusing on, thank God. No one built anything. Cross, and this is primarily. in the in the Dallas Houston area and of course Don and also this is in the urban area what did he say Dallas Houston I know it's like there is no Dallas Houston area
Starting point is 01:38:37 those are the two they're far as far away as you can get this is like this is in the Los Angeles San Francisco area very good I should have caught that one very good very good this guy's mainly in the Dallas Houston Where do you go on vacation? The Dallas Houston area. Okay. My God. This is primarily in the Dallas Houston area and of course in the Dallas Houston area and of course down in awesome.
Starting point is 01:39:04 This is in the urban areas. I think there are a huge amount of being. I need to look at my figures, but they're around 200 mosques, 215 mosques I think that are now in the Dallas Houston area and around 100 plus mosques in. Austin. Okay. So we'll just wrap. A hundred mosques in Austin? I don't think that's true. But, you know, a mosque can be, you know, doesn't have to be a huge building. You know, there's just little dots on the map. Anyway, we'll wrap it up with this. Let's give you a bit of background as well, Mugo, about these organizations that we're talking about, including the Muslim Brotherhood. It may sound familiar to you. This is a group that was founded in Egypt. It really rose to power, rose to influence after the Arab Spring. But important to note that it also became something that Americans grew to see as a threat. In Egypt, the ideology within the Muslim Brotherhood also spread to some other groups that you'll now know, Hamas and Hezbollah as well. But important to mention here that there has really been no material tie from the Muslim Brotherhood to CARE. Also, CARE, which is an American-based group, has never actually been charged with crimes like aiding and abetting a terrorist organization.
Starting point is 01:40:22 organization. And finally, I want to mention as well, Mugo, that when it comes to labeling groups with this label of a terrorist group or organization, it's really up to the U.S. State Department to do that. What the governor did today was a state proclamation. And so I want to show you what we found on my screen here. This is a social media post from Greg Abbott after he had made that proclamation. And what he's saying is that this will have an impact in the state of Texas. And the impact he says it will have is that it will allow some heightened enforcement against these two groups. As well, he says, you'll see here, this bans them from buying or acquiring land in Texas and also authorizes the attorney general to sue to shut them down. So they're going after Abbott for whatever reason.
Starting point is 01:41:12 Well, this is important. We have to figure out why they're going after Abbott. People don't like Abbott. Abbott is not popular in Texas. he's just not yeah but that's got nothing to do with Bannon he's not is he in Texas
Starting point is 01:41:26 no no but they got to start somewhere and it's just so when you say Texas is being taken of the most Christian state in the nation I think one of them said Bannon said that when you say that then everyone else gets
Starting point is 01:41:42 freaked out and this whole do we I know we have well I like to I think the parallel that you made which or pointed out when the guy says, oh, they took over Nashville, a state run by a Republican. We have producers in Dearborn, Michigan. I would like to know, is it as bad as the TikTok and Instagram videos portend?
Starting point is 01:42:07 Because all you hear, oh, it's it Dearborn. Dearborn has been taken over by the Muslims. They run it all. And they also play the call to prayer. Yeah. It is absolutely true that if you look at, I know the Netherlands, for sure in the UK that Muslims have taken office in, you know, city councils, mayors, absolutely. Look at the city of London.
Starting point is 01:42:34 I mean, London, I shouldn't say the city of London, Sidique Khan. And yeah, well, then get off your blessed assurance and go run for office, run for office. It doesn't take a genius. What's that? It doesn't take a genius to vote somebody out. No, and run yourself. I mean, but this is an op. And I agree with you.
Starting point is 01:42:56 I think it's weak. But right now, it's really dominating the airwaves here in Fredericksburg. Everybody's talking about it. Well, again, it's another one of these. Maybe it's experimental to see where it could go so they could show a real op, a dynamite one could come out closer to the midterms because these things blow over. Yeah, this is no good. it's possible that's what all we're looking at and it's no big deal one way or the other could be it could be um yeah and there's going to be some other experiments i've got to do something
Starting point is 01:43:29 because trump's scheme about the epstein files fell apart yeah and that's not going to have that's not going to have any effect whatsoever and the and the uh democrats are going to kick ass i've said this before i'll say it again they're going to kick ass in the midterms and they're going to impeach Trump again and the last two years of his administration are going to be sidelined and if you think and then the economy falls apart well the economy is going to fall apart one way or the other sometimes sometime in the near future it just does well eventually sure every 20 years it doesn't so it's due to to fall apart between 2027 and 28 by the way the 2029 probably the redistricting uh has been halted here in texas
Starting point is 01:44:15 remember that's yeah by the some legal thing well by one same thing's going to happen in California the redistricting in California is not going to happen I said this from the get go constitutional lawyer Rob sent me a whole blurb about it was one of the one of the three judges who was even in the in the what do you call it the the opinion that one of the one of the other two judges wrote said You know, you're like a sorrow stooge, like just going off on each other about how this one judge has halted this. So right now there's no redistricting happening. My understanding about the district in Texas in California is that Texas was told to redistrict.
Starting point is 01:45:03 Well, that's the meme, yeah. I'm told by Trump, told by Trump, but it was really one of the judges. That was just a newsome thing. Yeah. By the way, thank you. for listening, podcast enthusiasts. We have clearly a lot of Gen Z listeners. We welcome you all.
Starting point is 01:45:25 And thank you for setting us straight on the straw hat pirate flag. Holy moly. How many emails did you receive about this? Well, all the emails are received, I hate to say this, but about a month ago, I described this flag where it came from. Early on, and it's long since typical of the show,
Starting point is 01:45:44 been forgotten by their listeners and they're trying to educate us. I got a few. I must have gotten 50. Well, I did not get 50. And that this is from an anime? Yeah. This is what I said. Yeah, I don't know.
Starting point is 01:46:00 A month ago. I'm sure you did. I didn't remember it. No, nobody did. From one piece, one piece. By the way, Sir Patrick Cobel has notified me. He will be setting up the No Agenda Day. Discord so that we can get some intelligence people in.
Starting point is 01:46:19 Oh, Coble. Yep, that's the guy to do it. That way you can have a back door to the CIA. Danielle Nevada writes in, says, as a younger millennial male, I want to provide my perspective on the meanness issue. When I first heard the reports of you being mean to John, I thought it was a gag.
Starting point is 01:46:37 For years, it's been clear to me that John is the bully in the partnership, and you are masterful at disarming and dealing with it. Thank you. Exactly. So, Tina wrote that? No. Leanne came in. She's from, actually, I think she lives in California. Leanne Webb, wife to the OG Godcaster.
Starting point is 01:47:02 Hi, Adam. John says he wants to hear from the ladies. I'm weighing in. There have been brief moments throughout the whole 18 years of listening to you guys that both of you have been snippy with each other. But it is my humble opinion that John does a lot to push you and to try and make you be snippy. Aha! There it is.
Starting point is 01:47:22 He sometimes just shows up with a genuinely grumpy attitude. There are occasions where you, Adam, show up with a grumpy attitude also. But I must say, it's more rare than it used to be. There you go. Well, that's because he's found Christ. That's exactly what she says. That is exactly right. So I'd say the jury is still out on who's really the snippy bully.
Starting point is 01:47:46 Well, we both know it's you. So I have a here. I have to read this. This is a douchebag comment because the guy hasn't donated. I told him to donate. Oh, do you have a douchebag voice to do this in? No, this is interesting. I'm a mammologist.
Starting point is 01:48:01 What? We're talking about the, the alpha gal. Oh, yes. The alpha gal, the lone star tick makes you allergic. to meet, apparently. By the way, I find the name of this thing, alpha gal, because they're all talking about alpha males and the name is thing alpha gal. What is that all about?
Starting point is 01:48:19 I'm a mammologist, he writes, and just wanted to mention that on the Sunday show, this is a mana coppa. You refer to marsupials and some other species as not mammals. Oh, no. All marsupials are stupid, are mammals, you idiot. And the other species are definitely mammals. They have hair and mammary glands.
Starting point is 01:48:40 That's the kicker. but include a kangaroo. That's why they're called mammals. Hello. For milk production, just an FYI. This is interesting now. Now it gets good. I have had Alpha-Gal from a lone star tick.
Starting point is 01:48:56 Three, uh, a lone star tick bite, I'm sorry. I was working on, on bats in North Carolina and had a tick attached for about 24 hours. About three months later, I broke out into full body hives. And after eating a hamburger, it happened a few more times after eating beef. And I went for the test. In other words, he got sick from eating the hamburger. It came back positive. I was lucky.
Starting point is 01:49:25 I could eat pork and venison, both mammals, with no ill effect, only beef. Did he give you his vaccination history? No, he didn't. Which may include alpha-gal? I wait he says I waited two years before introducing beef little by little back into my diet and I'm happy to report I'm back on the beef baby so luckily it can go away for some people over time oh well good now donate I told him to donate when in the retort I sent him and he and he sent note back saying he's been guilted into donating he is going to donate good work probably five bucks. It's okay. Hey, value is value. That's what I say. Um, we do have some new terms, which I'm very happy to hear, uh, since we have been, uh, been, we being educated by our new gen Zs. I think we just have to keep calling Gen Zeds. I think that's better. The Zs, the Zs are here.
Starting point is 01:50:30 The Zeds are listening. I like the Zeds. And the Zeds like it because, you know, they're not getting duped by AI crap because we happen to know the background of stuff like this. And we know historical background and you know 15 years ago when we first played that clip about the muslin brotherhood they were two so welcome zeds we love it to have you here but there are some new dating terms that we should know about since we are woefully uneducated about today's dating back now in the morning buzz remember situationships well there's a whole new batch of dating terms emerging in the digital age i can totally relate to all these maybe you're a single looking for love or a parent who wants to understand what your teenager is going through. So here's a quick
Starting point is 01:51:14 overview of the current lingo. Okay, so throning is when you date someone more popular or powerful to boost your social status. And then there's Shrekking, like the movie Oger. It means you put looks lower on your list, hoping that someone shows you their inner beauty, but your strategy ends up backfiring, which is why they call it Shrekking. That's a shame. Another term is Bankseeing, like the elusive street artist, you slowly withdraw emotionally from your partner without telling them. And then there's monkey barring, making sure you have secured a new love before officially letting go of your ex. Sort of like if you quit your job, you need a new one. It works the same with relationships. All of these terms equate to toxic dating. Just making
Starting point is 01:51:58 that very clear here. One dating coach shared a theory that people are struggling to make sense of their experiences, so they're inventing new words to process them. I don't buy it. I've heard of throning. I want to say some, some, these are like either local terms or there, nobody says this crap. No, I've heard throning. I've heard throning. Yeah, I've heard throning.
Starting point is 01:52:26 I have a little bit on Venezuela, if you want to hear it, because I think I've kind of figured out what's really going on right now with the Southern Spear operation. Southern Spear. Are you interesting? You think you figured out what's going on? Yeah. Beyond the stopping the drugs into Europe? Oh, it's definitely part of the North Sea Nexus, but it's not just about the drugs.
Starting point is 01:52:54 Here's a quick update on the U.S. ramping up pressure. New images tonight showing U.S. Marines training here in Trinidad and Tobago, multiple Osprey aircraft carrying out joint exercises with the local military, as the U.S. ramps up pressure on Venezuela. For weeks, Marines from the same unit conducting live-fire training operations across the Caribbean, Harrier fighter jets, bombing targets. It comes as the New York Times reports,
Starting point is 01:53:22 President Trump signed off on additional covert CIA operations inside Venezuela that could lay the groundwork for a bigger military campaign, citing multiple people briefed on the matter. The president saying this week, he is not ruling out putting U.S. troops on the ground in Venezuela. I don't rule on anything.
Starting point is 01:53:41 We just have to take care of Venezuela. The Times also reporting, Trump authorized a new round of back-channel negotiations with Venezuela's president Nicolas Maduro, who reportedly offered to step down after a few years, but the White House rejected that plan. David, as far as the end game here, many experts say, sure, it can be about stopping drugs
Starting point is 01:53:59 in this part of the world, but it's also very likely about more than that. It's very likely about forcing President Maduro from power one way or another. Well, not exactly. And I came across, because we watch all types of media, a report on RT, of all places, which included in this intro clip a little statement from the Venezuelan foreign minister at the recent United Nations gathering. While everybody was talking about the escalator and the teleprompter,
Starting point is 01:54:31 other things were being discussed. It seems that the situation surrounding the disputed South American territory of Essequibo is reaching its boiling point and that's all thanks to the United States and as some would say Washington's never-ending pursuit for other nations, oil and gas. The government of the
Starting point is 01:54:52 United States of America considering itself to be the sovereign of our continent and with the excuse of the illegal Monroe Doctrine has once again intervened in a territorial dispute that is more than 200 years old over our territory of
Starting point is 01:55:08 Equibo, Guyana. Today, the government of the United States of America wants to appropriate our oil resources using the company ExxonMobil. Okay. So, if it's not about drugs or turf, it's always about resources. This is oil, of course. Yes. Well, this is the disputed land between Guyana and Venezuela. And here's a little backgrounder on... Was that guy from Guyana? or Venezuela? No, he's from Venezuela. Now we're going back to RT. The lady will give us a little historical lesson about this disputed land and who really owns it. What does Washington have to do with a territorial dispute between Guyana and Venezuela? Well, let's take it back a little bit.
Starting point is 01:55:54 This is a border dispute between Guyana and Venezuela. Each side claims that this stretch of land belongs to them. And it's quite a significant portion of just about 160,000 square kilometers. It's almost a third of Guyana. It's also very rich in oil and gas. Venezuela has claimed the territory since it declared independence from Spain in 1811. Guyana, which used to be a British colony, insists that it belongs to them after Britain gained control through a treaty with the Netherlands back in 1814.
Starting point is 01:56:29 But the argument here is that the treaty wasn't specific when it comes to the borders. Fast forward a few decades and Venezuela, as they are, United States for help under the Monroe Doctrine, which opposed European colonialism in the Western Hemisphere. Some even thought that this could lead to another war between Britain and the US. Now, a tribunal in 1890 decided that the majority of the land belonged to the British colony, which of course was a huge disappointment for both Caracas and Washington. But when Guyana became independent in 1966, the border issue resurfaced. That's when it was decided, according to a Geneva agreement that the territorial disputes would be reconsidered.
Starting point is 01:57:12 Meanwhile, relations between Venezuela and Washington have deteriorated. So it's hardly surprising that Washington no longer seems to care about Venezuela's case, especially since Guyana gave drilling license to the U.S. oil major ExxonMobil. And there it is. Where British Petroleum has licenses in Venezuela, ExxonMobil, our guys, have licenses in Guyana, And about 10 months ago, this happened. Oops. That was a beautiful cue, but I screwed it up.
Starting point is 01:57:44 Wow. Venezuela voted to claim sovereignty over the oil-rich Esquibo region and neighboring Guyana, escalating a longstanding territorial dispute between the countries centered on energy resources and sparking international concerns about annexation. Venezuelan President Nicholas Maduro touted the election results as a total success for the country. Venezuela's national electoral council claimed 10.5 million. voters turned out and passed the five-questioned ballot with 95% approval. Voters were asked if they supported the establishment of a new state in the Esquibo area, and whether or not current
Starting point is 01:58:17 and future residents there should be granted citizenship. Both Venezuela and Guyana view the area as sovereign, and Guyana has argued any action from Venezuela to claim it would amount an annexation. Venezuela's interest in the Esquibo region was revived in 2015 when Exxon Mobil discovered a massive offshore oil reserve in its waters. In the eight-year-sense, some 46 offshore discoveries have been made, accounting for more than 11 billion barrels of recoverable oil resources. So we got the Guyana region, Esquibo, however you pronounce it, ExxonMobil, British Petroleum is in Venezuela. And then all of a sudden, Maduro says, yeah, we're going to take that piece there. And Trump's like, no, that's our oil. We've got the deal. Remember,
Starting point is 01:59:00 it's called Southern Spear. And now the U.S. is apparently looking to set up a military base there. This is the Guyana guy. We denounce that the government of the United States of America intends to military... I'm sorry, this is still Venezuela guy. This situation. The U.S. Southern Command wants to create a military base in the disputed territory in order to create a spearhead in its aggression against Venezuela and consolidate the plundering of our energy resources. So that's what it's about. That's why we're going to build a base there.
Starting point is 01:59:33 No, you're not going to take the oil. We've got the deal. you're not going to take this country all of a sudden, this esquiebo. That's what the military operation is about. Yeah, the oil field is the Stabrook block. It's a big one. It's a big one. And we did the discovery.
Starting point is 01:59:55 Yeah, we did. And ExxonMobil that did it. Yeah. And BP, this is classic. It used to be a Dutch Anglo thing. This is so classic. No, you're not going to have that. We'll sell it to you.
Starting point is 02:00:11 But you can't just take it. Yeah, so you make their lives miserable by blowing up these ships. Yeah. Well, there's, there's, can't get enough. The cocaine can't get into Europe. What are you going to do? Cocaine can't in. Get your lesson.
Starting point is 02:00:26 Merca, baby. Merca. I was just blown away. Like, I have to get this from RT. Where's our media? Uh, Shogi. I have to get this from R.T. Epstein. I had to get it from R.T.
Starting point is 02:00:43 Well, there's actually a cocaine story if you're done with that. Yeah, I am. Which also didn't show up very much. I mean, you could find it here and there online. About this guy, Ryan Wedding. Who's this? Yeah, see, I'd never heard this. She's a major story.
Starting point is 02:01:00 The Justice Department has announced new charges against former Olympian, Ryan James Wedding, who is accused of running a massive transnational drug network. The former snowboarder is now one of the FBI's top ten most wanted fugitives. And today's Christina Corona tells us more. The Department of Justice announced Wednesday that new charges have been in sealed against Ryan Wedding, a former Canadian snowboarder and Olympic athlete now accused of running a massive drug trafficking empire.
Starting point is 02:01:28 Authorities are offering a $15 million reward for his capture. He controls one of the most prolific and violent. violent drug trafficking organizations in this world. He is currently the largest distributor of cocaine in Canada. Authorities say Weddings Group imports roughly 60 metric tons of cocaine a year into Los Angeles, using semi-trucks from Mexico, moving over a billion dollars' worth of narcotics across the Americas. So far, 35 people have been indicted, and authorities have seized over 4,000 pounds of drugs, weapons, 3.2 million in cryptocurrency and $13 million in assets. FBI director Cash Patel compared
Starting point is 02:02:14 Wedding to some of the world's most notorious drug lords. Ryan Wedding is a modern day iteration of Pablo Escobar. He's a modern day iteration of El Chapo Guzman. He is responsible for engineering a narco-trafficking and narco-terrorism program that we have not seen in a long time. puts a whole new take on snowboarding. I know. And, you know, if you're the assignment editor on a newspaper or these networks, this would be a top story because it's so interesting. And the snowboard pun is absolutely part of it.
Starting point is 02:02:50 Where did you get these clips from? NTD. Of course. Sound a bit like Dana from that lawyer who used to be on Fox. What's her name? I guess it's not. Perino? No, no, no, no.
Starting point is 02:03:02 I think, you know, the, with the dark hair. I don't know, Dana, the other day. Well, anyway, play part two of this and we'll... And we'll wrap it up. We'll wrap it up. Wedding and 14 defendants, including a Canadian lawyer, are charged with orchestrating the January 2025 murder of a witness who was shot at a restaurant in Columbia.
Starting point is 02:03:23 Wedding now faces additional counts, including witness tampering and intimidation, murder, money laundering, and drug trafficking. Ryan Wedding is extremely dangerous. He's extremely violent and he's extremely wealthy. He's being protected by the Sinaloa cartel along with others in the country of Mexico. We will find him and we will bring him to justice. Law enforcement across the U.S., Canada, and Mexico continue efforts to locate Wedding, who remains among the FBI's top 10 most wanted fugitives.
Starting point is 02:03:56 Christina Corona, NTD News. Wow, that is a good story. And why wouldn't they report on that? Although then that it's British. What takes away from the... Oh, I'm sorry, Epstein, yes. Well, with that, I want to thank you for your courage. Say hello to you.
Starting point is 02:04:10 The man who put the sea in the cocaine empire. Say hello to my friend on the other end, the one, the only Mr. John C. DeMorriott. In the morning, you, Ms. Adam Crane, the morning, ships the sea boost in the graphie in the air. Subs in the water and all the names of nights out there. In the morning, to the trolls in the troll room. Let me count your first.
Starting point is 02:04:30 I don't have a peak. Something's broken. We have about 1,300 now, but it was more, a lot more earlier. They all missed a Ryan wedding story. They did. And they're going to miss a great donation story, as we're going to thank our supporters here at the best podcast in the universe who support us with time, talent, and treasure.
Starting point is 02:05:04 Big news out of Japan. Did you see the email this morning? Yes, I did. We got a, and I put it in the show notes, there was a half-hour profile done on NHK's Japanophiles, Japanophiles, of two of our top producers,
Starting point is 02:05:25 in fact, they are the Grand Duchess and Duke of Japan and all the disputed islands in the Japan Sea, Dame Astrid and Sir Mark. Did you watch the video? No, I haven't had time for it. I just got it this morning. I'll just play the intro. It's really cool. A distinctive facade inspired by traditional Japanese open work carving. It's a landmark located on one of Tokyo's most iconic shopping streets. This is a bookstore lounge that masterfully fuses international design sensibilities with the essence of traditional Japanese culture.
Starting point is 02:06:07 These designs are the work of Astrid Klein from Italy and Mark Ditham from the United Kingdom. They met at the Royal College of Art in London and came to Japan in 1988. Since then, they've designed not only buildings, but also interiors and furniture. Creating spaces that foster communication and creativity for those who spend time there. In this episode, Astrid Klein and Mark Ditham share insights from their decades of work in Japan. It's a little better with the video. You can see the buildings. man, they have done some of the most iconic buildings in the, oops.
Starting point is 02:06:58 No, they're dynamite. In Japan. They are, they are dynamite. So those of you who support us, you are amongst good company. Go take a look at that episode and be like, wow, wow. You want to go visit Tokyo right away and go hang out with them. And they welcome all no agenda producers to their homes. I'm reliably informed.
Starting point is 02:07:19 This is a fact. I want to get this out of the way. It's a note that came in about the donations. Okay. I'm writing, this is from Leora Coronel, and she says, I'm writing that she got the executive producer credit for the last show, but she mentions this problem that happened. I have an explanation. I'm writing to request a correction of the mistake John made. Hard to believe, but true.
Starting point is 02:07:46 During the donation portion of the show, the fantastic vintage biological warfare department letterhead that was given. gifted to John at the meetup this past Saturday, along with $300 donation, was credited to someone named John Lake in Santa Cruz. Stolen valor! However, it was actually from my smoking hot husband, Gus Cornell, from Nevada, City, California. I don't really have any clue how I got that mixed up. Although it was sitting at the table inside before we moved outside, and there was the handover of the beef and the letterhead, and then it was in an envelope, and people stuffed
Starting point is 02:08:21 the other stuff in the envelope. Is this the envelope for the donations? They shoved it in there. They got mixed up that way. Now, wait a minute. So I can go back and change, uh, change the credits. Oh, it was a $100 donation. So it wasn't actually on the credits. No, no. It was a $300 donation. She corrected that. Oh. And you don't, there's nothing to change. She got her credit. Oh, yeah. She's on the list. It was a, uh, a switcheroo. Right. No, she got it. She got the switcheroo. She did. Yep, she did. Gus has had this letterhead since he, I met him over 25 years ago and he's been saving it for a special occasion ever since. So we have to definitely give
Starting point is 02:08:57 Gus credit for saving it for the no agenda show. Last week, he finally decided that this special occasion would be meeting John in person, which he did. After the meetup, he was so excited that he got to give this awesome gift to John, and this is a killer. I'm sure you can understand our disappointment when someone else was given the credit. I feel bad about it. Horrible. Yeah, I'd like to make sure that Gus gets the credit he deserves. Yes, I remember Gus at the whole thing. I have no idea how this got mixed up in the, there was a pile of stuff.
Starting point is 02:09:29 It's a pile of... Stuff happens. Stuff happens. But Gus gets the credit. Now, thank you for your courage and there's, thank you for the mention of, for your attention to this matter, your loyal listener and future dame, the Liora. So that, yes, that letterhead,
Starting point is 02:09:44 which is just a dynamite piece of memorabilia, is in the permanent collection. Got an emergency note from one of our nights, Sir Scott the Jew from North Idaho. Speaking of our wonderful producer, Poole, we have award-winning world-renowned architects and many more. He says a close friend of mine is an emergency situation with his hand. He is a master mechanic, so he, of course, relies on his hands. He has been struggling for months with massive swelling and debilitating pain, and despite seeing multiple doctors, no one has been able to diagnose the problem.
Starting point is 02:10:19 Are there any hand surgeons or specialists in Gitmo Nation who could help? He can travel if needed. Email S at SJA.com. Thank you for your attention to this matter. You know what? It wouldn't surprise me if we have a hand specialist out there. I wouldn't be surprised in the least. No.
Starting point is 02:10:40 I hope there is so this guy can get back on track. Yes, indeed. All right. He needs that aggravation. Thank you. Really. Thank you to all of. our trolls in the troll room who are listening at noagenda stream.com and of course using
Starting point is 02:10:54 the modern podcast apps podcast apps.com value for value it comes in many different forms we talk a lot about it we talked a lot about on this show some of it is AI and boy did we get an AI piece of artwork for episode 1817 which we titled stunt grenade not stunt but stunt grenade and of course that came through no agenda artgenerator.com which anybody can't and use. And by the way, I've seen the designs for our Rubelizer challenge coin. It looks really nice. That comes from Paul Couture, right? Yes, and I'll probably, I'll put him in the next newsletter. You can take a look at them. Yeah, that will be obviously a very limited supply for rubbleizers. Yeah, we won't have to make too many. That's for sure. No, we won't. So thank you,
Starting point is 02:11:38 Blue Acorn, for doing a great piece of art. There's a bunch of robots sitting in the class, looking at the blackboard, AI class. And one, it says, on the blackboard, listen, two, agree. three kill self. And I guess we found that humorous. It's not as funny today. For some reason, it doesn't feel as funny today looking at it. But man, it's so hard when people are just tapping away. There's so much art and none of it's good.
Starting point is 02:12:07 Almost none of it. In hindsight, did some of those pirate flags come in? They came in later. No, they came in. There was a bunch of pirate flags. I wonder why we didn't use one of those. It might have been better. Well, I used the straw hat skull flag, which was not anything like the one that's going around.
Starting point is 02:12:27 No. As a, for the newsletter. But the reason was, I think, is because these weren't the, this was, this was an actual sombrero pirate flag. When it's not a sombrero, it's a straw hat. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, there is one also from Blue Acorn, which I don't recall seeing. but you know people just think that you know you still got a talent to come up with something funny and you got to reprompt and prompt again and prompts or more and why you know this interesting
Starting point is 02:13:00 is this coach joe has been submitting these crazy cartoons i don't know what system he's using to get these things yeah but they're all they're interesting they're not usable because everything's too small he can't read anything yeah but it's uh he's definitely using a model that is not used by others. No one else is using whatever he's using. That's all I can say. Well, prompt well, prompt better, be a good prompter or create something by hand. There's still people that from time to time. And they do win quite often, I would say, because there's really nothing above, you know, some real human skills. Because this is the literal definition of slop, most of it. No agenda artgenerator.com. Go ahead. These two guys, somebody took
Starting point is 02:13:48 our pictures and swapped out the faces with some other people? Again. We're not going to do, we're not going to use that. We're not going to use it, but that's, who's that person that's playing you and who's the guy's, the goofball that's my face? I think you're Schumer. You look like Schumer. You look a little like Schumer.
Starting point is 02:14:07 Yeah, who do I look like? Like some bad soap opera, soap opera actor. You look like some, I don't know what you, who, that's supposed to be. I think it's supposed to be someone. I don't know who it is. I don't know who that is. No, no idea. Anyway, no agenda art generator.
Starting point is 02:14:26 That wasn't going to get picked no matter what. No, no agendaartgenerator.com. And believe me, there's still plenty of chances for you to win, just looking at what's come in so far. Now we want to thank our, we thank everybody, $50 and above. We want to thank our executive and associate executive producers. You receive this credit when you are in the opportunity to donate $200 or more,
Starting point is 02:14:47 we will not only give you the title of a associate executive producer, which is a real Hollywood credit, can be used anywhere where Hollywood credits are recognized, including IMDB.com, which is kind of cool. You know, if you're out there throning or shrekking, you can say, hey, I'm a producer, associate executive producer.
Starting point is 02:15:06 Oh, really? Oh, really? Prove it. Oh, go to IMD. Look me up. Look me up on IMDB.com. Oh, wow. Yeah, it's true. $300 or more, we'll get you an executive
Starting point is 02:15:16 producer'ship, and same applies. We will read your note. And we start off today with a switcheroo from Baroness Lady Bird in Provenzal, Louisiana. And she says, please deduce. You've been deduced. And give the executive producer credit to Sean Wester. Colonel, United States Marine Corps retired.
Starting point is 02:15:40 Happy. Another colonel. Happy birthday, my love. Semperfy, Baroness Ladybird, Eagle of Toledo Bend. That's beautiful. Semperify, always faithful. That's right. Beautiful. Switcheroo has been implemented. Thank you. Josh, sheepdog, Buford in Midlothian, Virginia, 333.33. In the morning, Adam.
Starting point is 02:16:03 Hey. Listening from Virginia since 2020 as a men's alliance member. Are you a part of this? I'm not a member. I'm not familiar with the men's alliance. I'm traveling right now on a bus to Lake Bridgeport in Texas where 112 men are finishing training to share the gospel. To answer life's hard questions, the truth, and to earn their men's alliance patch. Oh, I need one. Well, just, yeah.
Starting point is 02:16:37 I left a restaurant a couple of years ago to help train and equip. Barbarian Ambassadors for Christ. Christ. Barbarian ambassadors for Christ. Nearly 400 Min's Alliance tribes across the country meet weekly for an outdoor workout and devotion around a fire while disciplining each. Discipling. Discipling. Discipling.
Starting point is 02:17:03 It sounds like disciplining each other. And building our base of brothers. More are starting every week. I get fired up every time I hear you give a. An answer for the hope that you have, thank you for using your voice for his kingdom, capital K. Maybe I can talk you into visiting Lost Pines tribe in Bastrop, which I don't think is anywhere near you. One Saturday morning, all men can find a tribe near you or start a tribe by visiting men's alliancetribe.com. Menzalianstribe.com 1. Peter 315, Josh Sheepdog Buford.
Starting point is 02:17:44 There you go. Well, something else is you to do. Next time I go visit. More work. No, well, next time I go visit my buddy in the Slammer, which is in Bastrop, then I might drop by. It's always on a Saturday. So I just might. Bastrop has a prison? Yes, a federal penitentiary.
Starting point is 02:18:00 Yes. Thank you for the invitation, Josh. Sir Nate the Rogue Central Point, Oregon, 333. He says, he belongs. to intelligence. Referring to Epstein, no doubt. Sernate the rogue. P.S. Go podcasting. Emoji. All right. Thank you. Emoji. Is there a go podcasting emoji? Or are you just saying emoji? Just like a Tourette's thing. Emoji. emoji. Chris and Berggrime, Norway, I'm guessing. 333. We have a lot of Norwegians that listen to this show.
Starting point is 02:18:37 In memory of my brother, Vance Nudson, his trip on the roller coaster called Life ended November 14th, age 50. Oh, that sounds. To any no agenda producers, please pick up that phone and call, friend or relative. You keep thinking about calling, but never do. Maybe you can make a difference. Chris, the Medvening-Hilson, best regards. That's best regards, with many happy regards. Executive producer of no agenda.
Starting point is 02:19:06 Sorry about that, Chris. Coming in from Las Vegas, Nevada with a long note, Moose, 2.1165, also known as Normatic Stephen Moose. And he says, hey John. Hey, John. Just wanted to follow up on the note I wrote last time because I didn't want to write something and about the meetup and be a douchebag and not donate. It was my first time donating over $200 or wasn't sure how to attach the notes of the donation.
Starting point is 02:19:32 Yes, I'm passing through town. I was thrilled to attend my second meetup ever and hang out with fellow producers regarding the meetup. The comments about John, they were meant to be taken in jest. Oh, this is that you were off-putting. Off-putting. And I was sick.
Starting point is 02:19:49 And I left. Also, I didn't stand around for photos. By the way, the funny thing is, most of the time I do get some photos. They were just the way, it was the timing. The place was packed. It was more than the usual number. I mean, we had at least 40. And normally it's about 30 and it actually
Starting point is 02:20:05 makes a huge difference. This is a lesson in in nuance and writing, you know, things can be taken out of context. He says, also, I didn't realize, my bad, that the person you were talking to wasn't your son. Everyone I talked to at the meet up told me that, told me it was. So I assumed it was the case as well. He's got uppercase, ASS. I generally appreciate all the things you and Adam do for the show. It was great hanging out with the other producers.
Starting point is 02:20:30 I made a promise to a listener named Ken Sparkle Buckets and his wife, Jill, to give them a shout out for some jobs karma for Ken. also wanted to thank them for the beer. I'm really looking forward to attending Burning Man with them next year. Oh, brother. That's the kicker in that note. Burning Man. He's a burner or a future burner. I want to wish a happy retirement to Sir Christopher and Dame Kristen, safe travels this week. Finally want to express my gratitude to my best friend, Sir John of Jupiter,
Starting point is 02:20:59 who introduced me to the show several years ago. He's an amazing person, a great husband, and a loving father to his three daughters. I thoroughly enjoyed spending time with his family during my summer stay in Salt Lake City. Although Sir Sean of the Northern Everglades gave him a good punch in the mouth, guess you can blame him for introducing us to the show. Please continue to do great work as well as the show has a significant impact on many of our listeners' lives. And John, next time we're at a meetup, we're definitely getting a photo together. Thank you, says Nomadic Stephen Moose, and here is the Jobs Karma requested.
Starting point is 02:21:32 Jobs, Jobs, Jobs, and jobs. vote for jobs. You can't come out. Here we go with Eli the coffee guy, $211.20. A huge thank you for everyone who jumped on the early release of our gigawatt canned
Starting point is 02:21:49 cold brew. I'm drinking it right now. I love it. Really appreciate the support and the kind words so many of you leave in the notes when ordering. It's humbling to know how many producers love our coffee. You know, their coffee grinds, I have, I go, I don't use their coffee exclusively because I like to have contrast once in a while.
Starting point is 02:22:14 Oh, everybody needs contrast. Yes. Their coffee requires a coarse grind because it really, I don't know what it is, but it's interesting how every, you know, if you got a brevel, you know, you get this, you get this fine, you can fine tune. You have to, with a, with a real brevel, you have to have it so the coffee starts. coming out and the eight second mark. And so you have to keep adjusting the grind so this, this occurs. And their coffee really requires a very interesting grind compared to almost everybody else's.
Starting point is 02:22:49 Wow, that's good info. Well, it's useless. Sorry. No, it's not useless. The kind words of so many, that's okay. I picked up the sarcasm. The kind words, many of you leave in the notes. It's humbly to know how many producers love a coffee that.
Starting point is 02:23:05 That's the idea. And it's, by the way, still better than the contrasting coffees I try. Especially some of their blends. Every once in a while, he hits something out of the park. Also, a happy birthday to my amazing wife, Jen, the other half of Gigawatt. She did the design for the cans. She's obviously doing it. We love Jen's cans.
Starting point is 02:23:29 No, she, thank you. Your website, gigawatt Coffee Roasters. time to see how they are her handiwork. Visit the website. For anyone who missed out, don't worry, the official launch drops on Black Friday until then. Stay caffeinated, Eli the coffee guy. Yeah. Now, I love the gigawatt can cold brew. I really do, especially you shake it hard to release the nitro. Alejandro Alocer, 210 and 60 cents. He says, thanks. You're welcome. Great work, guys. Adam, please go to the fallen state with Jesse Lee Peterson. That will be amazing. No agenda and Jesse are the, oh, please go on the fallen state.
Starting point is 02:24:12 Okay. If he emails me, we can see if we're going to work it out. What is the fallen state? It's a podcast, I guess. No agenda and Jesse are the only shows worth my time and money. Hilarious and profound. Many more public service years, please. I'm not familiar with the fallen state.
Starting point is 02:24:30 I'll take a look while you read the next note, which apparently you have. no the next one's from linda and scott johnson i don't know oh yeah this one this is they actually donated last time this is the people in kissimi kissimi kissimi whatever we pronounce it kisimi is there's another donation of 20477 just the check that came in that said photo export because they had this photo export product they plugged profusely in the last show and here's another check from them with no note no wow this uh this jesse guy does like a show every single day. Oh, a hard worker.
Starting point is 02:25:08 Yeah. It seems to be a lot of interesting. He's got a lot of AI images on his YouTube. Okay. All right. We go to, there she is, Linda Lou Patkin, Lakewood, Colorado. And she wants jobs karma and says, as always, for competitive edge with a resume that gets results,
Starting point is 02:25:26 go to ImageMakersink.com for all of your executive resume and job search needs. That's all of them. And that's ImageMakers, Inc. with a K. And you get to work with Lindelieu, Duchess of Jobs and writer of winning resumes. Jobs, Jobs, Jobs, and Jobs. Let's vote for jobs. Yucos. Harma.
Starting point is 02:25:48 And we come to Sir Switcheroo, the Black Baron of the I-4 Corridor. And he came up with 200 bucks. And he did send in a note, which I have. And you should queue up the phone. FOMER clip. Okay. Fomer. Got it.
Starting point is 02:26:05 The request will be more obvious. This is Switcheroo. It's another thing you got to do. Yeah. This is an associate executive producer's ship. Is the second time this has happened to Vladimir Putin. Oh, no. Okay.
Starting point is 02:26:22 Let's switch my night name from Surfer to Sir Switcheroo. I haven't been surfing. Oh, it used to be surfer. Get it? Yes. I haven't been surfing much lately because I'm getting too old. him 65. Furthermore, I've donated more switcharoos in my own producer credits. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Jingles. Fomer, followed by a Tucker laugh, if Adam would be so kind,
Starting point is 02:26:46 and karma for all producers. Thank you for your courage. Love is lit. Oh, come. Give it a shot. Oh, my God. Listen to that horn. Pretty good. Karma. It's hard to do it on... It's hard to do it on command. It's always hard to do stuff like that on command.
Starting point is 02:27:10 But you... I brought it. I brought it. You have the skill. I brought it. You did it. It was killer. Thank you to these executive and associate executive producers
Starting point is 02:27:18 who went to no agenda donations.com to keep us going for another four more years. We'll be thanking the rest of our supporters, $50 and above. It's time, talent, and treasure. Yes, you can hit someone in the mouth. Yes, you can set up a meetup. Yes, you can send us some artwork. Yes, you can send this jingles, end of show mixes.
Starting point is 02:27:35 All of it is appreciated, especially the financials, because even we have bills to pay. Thank you again. Congratulations. Go to noagendatonations.com. Our formula is this. We go out, we hit people in the mouth. Water.
Starting point is 02:27:56 Order. Shut out of sleep. I tried it again. tried it again everybody that's raining here is cats and dogs raining cats and dogs here it rained here last night cats and dogs yeah i want to play a little warning clip here a warning clip yeah oysters and scallops in japan clip this is part of this is only part of a long presentation that was on n hk and they have had an oyster kill off and the scallop kill off and they can't produce enough and there's
Starting point is 02:28:32 prices are going to skyrocket. I don't know if it's going to affect it. It doesn't seem to be happening anywhere else, but the Japanese are going to pay too much, which means that they're going to import stuff, which means the prices are going to go up, so people should be out there aware of the fact that oysters and scallops may cost more.
Starting point is 02:28:47 There could be multiple factors behind the dead oysters. In addition to global warming, there has been little rain, which means the water's salt level is higher. This could have impacted their health. Fish that feel hot in Japan will move north, to somewhere the water temperature feels appropriate. but oysters are fixed in one place.
Starting point is 02:29:04 The situation with the scalps has continued for several years, and for oysters too. Before, I heard about damage in certain areas, but this time it's broader, covering the three prefectures of Hogo, Hiroshima, and Okayama. It really is unprecedented. He also says there won't be an easy fix, and shellfish-hungry consumers may have to fork out much more than they're used to. Well, how come they didn't say it's due to climate? change. They did at the beginning.
Starting point is 02:29:33 Ah, it was due to climate change. Well, they said it might be. They're not so, you know, they're not cocksure about it. I have some food-related clips. Oh, okay. Which is, yes, it's from the BBC, so take it with, you know, with your grain of salt. But a new, like, surprise, surprise, they released a new peer-reviewed, what's the, what's the big place where you? release all of your studies, your, you know, your medical stuff.
Starting point is 02:30:09 What kinds of places? Yeah, well, one of the big ones. Process food is not good for you. What? What? I know. A giant conspiracy to promote addiction, spread chronic disease, and cause us to lead shorter, sicker lives.
Starting point is 02:30:24 That's what ultra-processed foods are, essentially, according to a global study published in the Lancet Medical Journal, which argues that so-called... called UPSs are linked to illnesses such as cancer and diabetes. What? Chris Van Tullochan is Professor of Infection and Global Health at University College London. He's one of the authors of the study, and he's also the author of the influential book, Ultra processed People.
Starting point is 02:30:48 Ultra processed food is a formal scientific definition. It's also known as Nova Group 4. And it broadly describes the category of packaged goods made by transnational food corporations. and to understand how they're made and why they're so full of additives, you've got to sort of imagine that you're running a food company. So if you're running a food company and I'm running a food company, we've only got two ways of making money. We can drop the price of ingredients,
Starting point is 02:31:13 so we start using additives, flavors rather than strawberries, emulsifiers, rather than eggs. And we can also engineer our food so that it's very hard to stop eating and people buy lots and lots of it. We can dominate food environments. We can suppress real and whole food. And so that's the project of, of transnational food companies.
Starting point is 02:31:32 And I say that without agenda, that's sort of what we pay them to do in a way. Well, now, this is riveting. And it's amazing how... Yeah, riveting. Would you rather do your TikTok clips? I'm fine. No, no, I want to hear the rest of this.
Starting point is 02:31:48 I mean, of course, we're both in the total agreement, what he's saying is not like a... Well, what I like is that he's saying it's part of the whole system. It's like, we process the food, you get sick, you stay sick, we keep you going with some pharmacies. That's what you want. Yes, you want ultra-processed people. And you're a co-author of this paper in The Lancet. Just tell us what its findings are.
Starting point is 02:32:09 So this is a series of three papers published in the Lancet today being launched at the Royal College of Physicians in London. I'm sorry, it's not the Lancet. It's the Lancet. It's the Lancet. Get it straight. The authorship is primarily from the Global South, from Latin America and Brazil and from Sub-Saharan Africa. There are authors also from all around the world. There are 43 of us.
Starting point is 02:32:29 The paper is broken up into three sections. First of all, we look at the scientific evidence linking ultra-process food to health harms. And we've done a formal meta-analysis of more than a hundred of the kind of studies that linked tobacco to lung cancer. And we've looked at lots of experimental evidence, both animal evidence, human evidence, laboratory evidence, alongside this population data. So we're very clear now that we have reached the threshold where we can say a dietary pattern high in ultra-ocean. processed food causes negative health outcomes. And there's a wide range of these, obesity, weight gain, metabolic disease, cardiovascular disease, cerebral vascular disease, stroke, gastrointestinal disease, depression, and early death from all causes. And we know from other published work that
Starting point is 02:33:15 poor diet has overtaken, or is at least on parity with tobacco now as the leading cause of early death on planet Earth. So, it's as bad as smoking. I wonder, you know, when I hear these stories. I always wonder if they include mortadella as ultra-processed. What is the mortadela? Mortadela is what bologna should be. Oh. It's Italian. It is the, they're big slices of it's a lunch meat that the Italians sell it. It's absolutely delicious. And is it? Mortadela is what you get instead of bologna. And is it processed? Well, yeah. I mean, it's, you know, if you, it's just a smooth, yeah, It has, it's the process, like, it's similar grind in processing that you might get from a hot dog, which is another thing I wonder about, is a hot dog, which contains a lot of awful, O-F-F-A-L, which is the various pieces of gut and cartilage and who knows what, ground into a fine paste and then turn into a sausage. It seems to me a hot dog should be healthy because it contains all kinds of things you wouldn't normally eat.
Starting point is 02:34:26 you know the ones at Costco those are the most healthy and you get a drink and a hot dog for a buck 25 buck 50 did they raise the price and we thought it was no it's always been a buck 50 your price is wrong well maybe it's cheaper in texas next time you go check i will so surprisingly this is he's really going to talk about the poor people in the south in the southern hemisphere and this has long been a problem in the west but it's a growing problem in places like Africa and Latin America, and there's no benefit for people there because these are big multinational companies that are making the profits, whereas people in places like Africa and Latin America are suffering all these health consequences you talk about.
Starting point is 02:35:13 The companies that do this sort of processing, there aren't a long list of them. They're the brands you know, they make your breakfast cereals, your favorite cola drink, your ready meals, your candy and chocolate. Ready meals. They are primarily most of the best. of the shareholders of those companies are institutional investors based in the global north. That's broadly true. And so any benefit accrues into high-income settings that already have high-income settings. And we also have healthcare infrastructure to deal with the appalling
Starting point is 02:35:43 externalised cost of the diet that the food industry essentially forces people with low-income to eat. And so when we look at that in a low- or middle-income context, it is completely unaffordable. And I think that's why such strong advocacy has come from particularly South and Central America, where in a single generation, obesity went from being essentially unheard of to being
Starting point is 02:36:05 the dominant public health problem. They should give them some Ozzympics, send some Olympic to Africa. That'll fix it. You know, this is annoying in the regards that they say, just because something's fast food and it looks like it sells relatively cheap, it's not cheaper than
Starting point is 02:36:21 you making the same product yourself. Thank you. Or buying hamburger meat. For example. Yes. One of my favorite treats from Taco Bell, which comes and goes, they used to be on the menu permanently, but now it's not anymore, is the toastata, the bean tostata. That is a flat piece of hard cornmeal tortilla, hard cooked. And then spread with a layer of refried beans, some shredded cheese, very little shredded cheese, and some,
Starting point is 02:36:53 lettuce and maybe some tomato's little pieces which are not inconsequential and that's and with a sauce there's a sauce involved you can make you can copy that and i've done it the exact same thing now those things cost used to cost a minimum of 99 cents but then they went up to a buck 50 and i don't know what they didn't have them half the time anymore you can make the same exact thing for about 25 to 30 cents using thank you using the same exact ingredients only better i would say, because we have a lot of people who are struggling who listen to the show, seriously, go to beefmaps.com, there's ranchers all across America, but of course you can find them everywhere in the world, and get ground beef from them, get as much as you can afford. You will
Starting point is 02:37:41 be surprised what wonderful meals you can make with ground beef. I mean, you get some cheap spaghetti sauce, you can make it yourself, you can make meatloaf, you can make hamburgers. You know, use your imagination, use the internet, use AI, and you will, I mean, we literally buy all of our beef in one go from K&C cattle, the two of us, it takes us like three months. And the amount of money that we spend in three months for the two of us would be going out to dinner in Fredericksburg three times. that's how long you can stretch buying beef directly from a rancher and it's much healthier man it's really raining here
Starting point is 02:38:26 it's like storming yes it's a healthier even if it's not like the copy of a toastata which you know how of healthier refried beans I'm not sure but whatever the case is it's the idea that poor people
Starting point is 02:38:42 have to eat from these fast food operations I mean we do know what a big Mac, because of fortune. Yeah, you don't have to, by the way. And you don't have to. You're not being forced. If you have the wherewithal, you need a frying pan and maybe a stove. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:38:56 But okay. Digital ID, closer and closer every day. We're moving in. We're teeing things up. And here's the latest. The massive online gaming platform, Roblox, which is used by millions of children under the age of 13, announced today it'll soon. require every player to scan their face and use AI-powered facial technology to estimate their age. We tested it out at Roblox headquarters earlier this year.
Starting point is 02:39:29 Dozens of families along with the Kentucky and Louisiana attorneys general have sued Roblox and chat platform discord for allegedly failing to protect children from sexual predators on their platforms. Roblox CEO David Bazuki spoke today with Tony DeCopal on CBS Mornings. For parents who are like, geez, now I'm supposed to send a picture of my kid in? That sounds crazy to me. What do you say? I want to highlight this isn't a selfie or this isn't capturing a picture that could ever be shared or exposed. But we're really not storing these images.
Starting point is 02:40:04 They're deleted soon after we process them. Roblox says it has revamped its online safety center as well and says the new age check requirement will roll out first in Australia, New Zealand and the Netherlands, than expanding to more countries in early January. Meanwhile, Discord says it does not comment on pending litigation and says it's deeply committed to safety. Yeah, Discord is not going to do any of that. We can't leave the spooks in that way. Discord's not going to be a part of that.
Starting point is 02:40:31 That's no good. And, of course, we have the real ID here in the United States, which is nothing more than your driver's license with a little star stamp on it. But, you know, that'll be digital soon enough. and we're just amping it up to make sure everybody gets one. The TSA is now proposing a new rule to charge passengers who don't have a real ID or a passport. Those passengers would pay $18 and have their identity verified at special kiosks.
Starting point is 02:40:58 The verification would be good for 10 days. It's not clear when the new rule would go into effect. Man, none of this is good. None of this is good. It's heading. It's heading that way. Well, let's don't let it. Okay. Complaining on a podcast usually helps.
Starting point is 02:41:18 That's the way to go. It stops legislation and it's tracks. It stops legislation and it's tracks. The question these days, though, should we even call it a podcast anymore? Okay, here we go. This is the question. Yes, you are familiar with Bill Simmons? No.
Starting point is 02:41:35 Bill Simmons used to be on ESPN. He was a big guy. Oh, that Bill Simmons. Bill Simmons. Yeah, the big ESPN Bill Simmons guy. So he started the ringer, very, very well-known podcast network, which he sold to Spotify, did quite well for himself. And now it's up in the air now. Should we call this a podcast?
Starting point is 02:41:55 Brian asks, at what point do we retire the term podcast? Nobody uses an iPad. And with the pivot to video and streaming, these are very clearly talk shows. I love how he doesn't correct. Stop, stop, stop. Yeah, I love how he doesn't correct iPad to iPod. Yeah, he said iPad. Yeah, so it's a padcast.
Starting point is 02:42:13 Not necessarily. I think we're stuck with the term. I just think we're going to morph into saying video podcasts or podcasts, depending on if it's a video show or not. But if you look at the definition of podcasts, which I looked up, a podcast is a program made available in digital format for download over the internet. No. it is in an RSS feed, not just for download over the internet, you dope. Yeah, we used to have download over the internet back in the, in the early 90s, all throughout the 90s, and the podcast technically was invented in around 2005.
Starting point is 02:43:00 Four. By you? Well, technically, the technical aspect, 2000, but the, throughout the 90s, you could download audio. Yeah, so this is not true. Simmons. Over the internet. So why would we change that? Maybe it'll change and just become shows. Shows. Maybe because as we stop making TV shows, maybe
Starting point is 02:43:22 podcasts become shows and we just call everything show. That's the only thing I can see it. Now, how about we call it? You mean like a no agenda show? I think we should call the netcast. Netcast. Netcast. I like Padcast, though. I'm down for. I'm down for Padcast. We put that. This is a show title. People will think we had a typo. Oh, man, you typoed podcasts. It's true.
Starting point is 02:43:46 That's exactly what they say in that voice. All right. Hey, I'll let you have the last clip here. You've got one of your many TikToks to choose from. Yeah, and these are going away, by the way. No, I'm going to have to live with these one of these day. Yeah. Now, I got the, I can have the stupid Apple pay girl.
Starting point is 02:44:04 Oh, I'm interested in her. Is she really stupid? I think this is, you know, I'd like the Trump resigning one because this. is going around too. Well, let's, let's do both. I'm going to go with the TikTok Apple Pay girl. And now I even sent a note to Brunetti and ever got an answer back. Of course, is this girl acting?
Starting point is 02:44:21 I don't think so. I think she's dead sincere because she's just, her tears are real. She's like a, her nose is red and she's in, she's miserable. And this is why. If you use Apple Pay, honestly, just be so careful. This is a little embarrassing to admit. But if this could help one person, then I'm really willing to share with my, experience was. I'm just going to lay it out like this. When you use Apple Pay, that's real money.
Starting point is 02:44:48 That's true American dollars from your credit card. If you have your credit card connected, that's where the money is being sourced from. It's not like a special form of Apple Pay, Apple dollars. Why they don't just say this is real money while you're paying? I don't know. because I thought that I had accumulated a bunch of Apple dollars to use for Apple pay by, you know, spending so much time on my phone, giving my data very freely and willingly to any place that asks, like whatever they say, our cookies, okay. I say yes, yes, yes, because I thought that's how I was getting prizes, getting rewards, getting Apple dollars. So I didn't think that was real money until I checked my credit card bill. I've been spending money like I'm a frigging millionaire. I got hair moves. I'm straight hair. My hair doesn't even hold loose. I call Apple to straighten things out. I look at please speak with Mr. Steve Jobs. They go, he's no longer with us. Well, that is really possible. I can, I can totally see where someone thought that by giving you your information and all your passwords that you're getting Apple rewards, Apple pay,
Starting point is 02:45:59 congratulations. I'm in total agreement with you. I think people could, because of all like freebies you get from playing the games or we'll go here and read this ad and you'll get some credits yeah all these you know bogus credits for this that and the other thing and apple pay yes is that part of it maybe did she have a nose ring uh blue hair no did she have a palestine flag nope none of the above huh well seem like a normal like 17 year old or 18 year Let's do Trump resigning because it's just, now you mention it. I just, I really have to hear it. Okay, here we go.
Starting point is 02:46:38 So Donald Trump is going on national television tonight at 945 p.m. He's either going to completely deny and try to distract the American people from the clear emails and damage of the Epstein files that are going to come down on his head. Or he's going to take a play out of Nixon's handbook and he's going to resign and he's going to have J.D. Vance. issue him a pardon to protect him from any wrongdoings or criminal actions. One way the other, his time as president is near. He might even try to use an excuse of his health. I need to step down because my health is failing and I'm not able to really continue on as president. One way of the other, the idea of him resigning the presidency at 9.45 p.m. tonight, it seems real.
Starting point is 02:47:28 Be considering if you look at all of the damage and things that are going to, going on around him, the allegations, the fact that we don't even have all of the files out yet and the petition is making its way through the House and the Senate. What do you guys think? Leave a comment. Well, I think you're an idiot. Can I leave that comment? Yeah, I'm sure he got plenty of that comment. You don't have to leave that comment. And this was from yesterday? Or was this from? No, a couple of days ago. Oh, oh, you should get back on that guy's channel. You know, his TikTok channel. I collect these clips for the show for the amusement.
Starting point is 02:48:04 This is my man on the street kind of concept. Oh, is that what it is? And that's what it is. So I don't want to interact any further than just playing the clip and mocking it on the show. Yes. Which, you know, I think somebody out there appreciates, not everybody. Well, a Griffin University study has validated a long suspected reality. SFVs, which is what you're looking at, short form videos, and Instagram reels are frying brains,
Starting point is 02:48:36 slashing attention spans, and crippling cognitive endurance. So you may want to be careful with I believe me, I'm, I can deal with it. I have, I'm too old for this to happen to me. I'm going to show my soul by donate to no agenda. Imagine all the people who could do that. Oh yeah, that'd be fab. Yeah, on no agenda in the morning. So we do have a few people to thank for the effort to donate $50 and above. And I've been making this segment part of my regime for the last 18 years. But Adam is now doing it for the next 18 years.
Starting point is 02:49:17 And he begins now. Yes, we start with 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 from Nathan Cochran, expert-based player for the band Mercy Me from Franklin, Tennessee. I would like to call out his other bandmates I don't see them. I haven't seen them on the list as regularly as Nathan. Nathan is the go-to guy. Nathan is the guy.
Starting point is 02:49:36 That's right. And he's like the quietest guy. You know, he's not like Shoooooooooo is the lead guitar, you know, he's a typical lead guitar guy. You got Barry, you know, Barry's, you know, rhythm guitar guy. You know, but Nathan,
Starting point is 02:49:52 the guy in the back, the next to the drummer, like all introverted looking, he's the guy. Thank you, Nathan. We got Frank's Fab and Machine. If you're looking for a machine or a fab, go to Howell, Michigan. That's Franks Fab and Machine. You know, I might need it. So he's a fabricator and a machinist.
Starting point is 02:50:14 Yeah, so he wants some jobs, Karma. Get that to you at the end. Stephen Mann, Plymouth, Michigan, 105, 35. James Shepard in Kihei, Hawaii, Kihei, I think, 100. David in Calistoga, California, $100. Drug girl. Cincinnati, Ohio, $100. And she does say John's eating the beaver comment had me spitting out my water.
Starting point is 02:50:39 Love your show. Oh, finally. Drug girl. Yeah, you got the drug girls. I'm so happy for you. And whatever. It works. She's probably a beauty.
Starting point is 02:50:48 Yeah, I probably. Jaraj Kojak Parts Unknown Boob Donation 80808 And Sir Kevin McLaughlin comes in with 8808 No note from him Which is strange He also came in super late

Starting point is 02:51:15 75 from Terry Wenson Langley Washington Ross Johnson and Eugene Oregon, 73, 73, complaining. I'm Scott Simon. No agenda should move to Friday and Sunday. Monday, scenes for the last 12 months, the show misses breaking news by only hours.
Starting point is 02:51:35 No, if we move it, it would be the same thing. Yeah. They're aware of the show and they break the news during the show. Yes, they're aware of the show. They're aware of our calendar. So it wouldn't change anything. Russell Coory in St. Cloud, Florida, 69, 69 is his brother Mike's birthday. Today, he's on the, oh, I want to call him out as a douchebag.
Starting point is 02:51:57 And he is on the list, Brian P. Bellin, Asbury, New Jersey, Asbury, Sad Puppy Donation, thank you. Then we have a long note here from Chad Hewitt, but Chad does become a night today. So let's see what he says. Before the pandemic, I don't think I ever listened to a podcast. When the world was locking down around us, my employer was threatening to fire me, and the government seemed ready to force vaccination. We searched desperately for everywhere we could to find the truth. I thank God that there was still independent voices out on the internet. And even though many seem to be getting censored hard,
Starting point is 02:52:32 this is when we found the life-saving communication from the high wire with Dell Bigtree, Children's Health Defense with RFK Jr., the FLCC, now the Independent Medical Alliance, and the No Agenda Show. and I have not missed a show since. Heard about the show when Adam was on the Glenn Beck podcast. On show 17. Yeah, Glenn Beck donation. And this is $66.40, by the way.
Starting point is 02:52:56 On the show 1734, there was a discussion about how AI was saying cows lay eggs. So I thought that's funny. Maybe I should try to have AI create that picture. It actually turned out pretty good. So after some clumsy photo editing, decided to try to post it before the end of the show, I was frantically trying to create an account attempting multiple times to get the right size and upload it.
Starting point is 02:53:15 With my daughter's help, it worked as the closing songs were playing. To my surprise, a few minutes later, it was picked as the show's cover. That was a blast. It happens. After a few more times of entering show art, I got picked again for show 1739 with boxing soccer.
Starting point is 02:53:30 The following show, though, a real artist wrote to Adam and exposed the truth that it was just AI crap, slop, lame, infantile, and he just types things into a prompt, and there it is. It's true. As an artist, I'm in no talent,
Starting point is 02:53:43 Ask Clown. My daughter, who is an actual graphics designer, also disapproves of my use of AI. This note is all over the place. Overall, I'm... No kidding. I'm saying a drunk driver. It is still three... It is... Hold on a second. I'm doing three things at the same time. It is still thrilling to try and come up with slop art in the short amount of time between topics to get a laugh during the next show. Thanks for the fun. Thank you both,
Starting point is 02:54:10 and God bless. I would like to be noted. Knighted, Surb Blue Acorn or Folsom. This is Blue Acorn. And he wants... Yeah, this is Blue Acorn. Well, good old Blue Acorn. That's interesting. Yes, he wants Dos Coyote Fayitas and Red Trolley Ale at the Roundtable, which

Triggered or hell's lame. You want to be where everybody feels the same. It's like a party.
Starting point is 03:01:41 Well, I've a feeling I'm going to miss the... I'm not going to make the ISO. You've got three of them. Did you hear, by the way, that 11 Labs is now licensing actors' voices? No, but it makes sense. Yeah. Let me see.
Starting point is 03:01:58 I think I had a clip on it. I can't seem to get any. I mean, of course, I'm trying to hang in there with a free account. Well, listen to this. Legendary. actor Michael Kane has licensed his unmistakable voice to New York-based AI company 11 Labs. All right, all right, all right.
Starting point is 03:02:17 Another Hollywood star has also signed a deal with them. A good man stands for certain ideals. Matthew McConaughey is allowing the company to translate his newsletter in Spanish using his voice. Hello, Feliz Viernes a total. Doesn't sound like him at all. It doesn't sound like him at all. Levin Labs, which is valued at $6.6.6 billion. They should give you a free account.
Starting point is 03:02:45 You think? You know, in the olden days when I was famous? Oh, yeah. Yeah, back in those days. I would have gotten free accounts, no problem, and, you know, in a blow job. All combined. But that doesn't happen anymore. I used to get free entrance with a gold card to the Hard Rock Cafe, but no blow jobs. $6 billion. It has a catalog of voices from late and famous figures, like Maya Angelou, John Wayne, and Judy Garland.
Starting point is 03:03:15 At that moment, Dorothy saw lying on the table. The licensing deals are stirring up debate about the role of AI in entertainment. Blah, blah, blah. So I go to 11 labs. Unlike you, I have a paid account. Unless you give me the password.
Starting point is 03:03:31 No way. Oh, you cheap bastard. You're just a gem today. And so I'm mean to you, but you can call me a cheap bastard when you know that nothing is further from the truth. In fact, I am the epitome of kindness and- Well, then what's the deal? Well, the problem is, so I wanted to get Michael Kane doing a no-agenda end-of-show ISO. Right, because then you could kick my ass in this deal. On for the free voices, yeah, easily.
Starting point is 03:04:07 You're just trying to beat me. And so you click on the voice, like you've got to give them your name, send them a message, you know, what do you want to use it for? And then they're going to tell you how much. That stinks. It's total stinkville. It's no good. It's going to be really expensive. I'm not interested in that.
Starting point is 03:04:24 Oh, that's, it's a bait and switch. I felt that way, yes. Anyway, here are my, by the way, we have John's tip of the day coming and some dynamite AI slop. And by the way, if you remember, this will be a joint tip of the day. This cracks me up. You always forget these things. I can't wait. I can't.
Starting point is 03:04:47 Don't, don't, don't, don't blow it. No, I'll, when I tip you off, but you will, oh, geez, I forgot about this. Okay, here we go. Here are my end of show ISOs. I don't know what they're talking about. It's not bad, right? No, that's good. Got another one?
Starting point is 03:05:02 Whoa, that's happening. yeah and then i i went to the well well you don't see that every day yeah but you don't see this we're a podcast we don't do you don't see anything oh please okay what do you have from the slop machine okay well i have a real one bye bye bye boy's a winner yeah yeah you've used that one before let's go with nuts if you did not like this then you are nuts that's that's pretty good yeah well then then go with awards. This podcast should be winning all the awards.
Starting point is 03:05:37 Well, it's obvious. That's the one we're going to use because it's true. We should be winning the awards. Create a fies for you and me. Just the tip with JCD. And sometimes Adam. Well, I cannot wait. It's a joint tip of the day.
Starting point is 03:05:55 Yeah, I'll trigger the joint tip by just saying to you, hey, you bought a new TV, didn't you? Yeah, I bought a new TV. there's nothing on. Yes, this was a Costco. We were at Costco. Our TV is 12 years old. It came with the house. And we've been saying to each other for weeks now, like, you know, we should really get a new TV because we had a 56 inch. We could go up a size 65. And it's uncanny because once I hung that sucker up for like a week there was nothing worth watching at all at all we're talking about TV here not content yeah well exactly so um the tip is if you go to Costco and we went to the
Starting point is 03:06:47 Costco in san antonia where i'm sure i'm so sure that i paid you don't need to just get this brand at Costco but okay well i'm sure that that i paid 125 for my hot dog and drink but i guess it was 150. And this is an OLED, O-L-E-D from LG. Now, they have two. They have one with the S, the A-9-I processor,
Starting point is 03:07:11 which is some AI nonsense. You want the eight, the eight. And you just look at all the TVs there, and this thing just blows, I mean, blows them all away. The viewing angle, there's no, as you said, there's no viewing angle.
Starting point is 03:07:27 There's no viewing angle. You can watch it from anywhere. Now, it's not cheap because, you know, most of those TVs are around $500. And this was not. I've seen them for like some of these off brands for like $3.49 for 50 inches. And that's what I was going for. Yeah, that was, yeah. You made the right decision.
Starting point is 03:07:45 When you see this TV, or just call it a screen, you shouldn't even call it a TV. Just call it a screen. $9.99, man. Which was a steal, in my opinion. They're normally about $1,400. bucks, but this is we're talking about the LG. By the way, do you know what LG stands for? This is why they never use the real name?
Starting point is 03:08:04 It's the most Asian name of any company that sells anything. Best price. Lucky Gold Star. No. Yeah, yeah. Lucky Gold Star? Yeah, that's the name of LG. That's what LG means.
Starting point is 03:08:19 Oh, I didn't know that. The more you know. The more you know. So I have been an advocate of these O-L-E-Ds for. from LG specifically because they're the ones who specialize in them. Everybody else, you know, people make them and there's a thing called a Q-L-E-D, which is just trying to get off the name. It's not O-L-E-D at all.
Starting point is 03:08:39 It's just a phony. It's a really nice set. Those are from Samsung. But I would say if you're going to buy a new television, it's more expensive by a factor of at least two. But the quality of an O-L-E-D and the lightness, the thing doesn't weigh. anything. No. I mean, I took that old Sony off the wall, almost broke my back. That thing was so heavy. And this, you can lift it up with one hand. Yep, you can lift it with one hand. It's super thin. And the luminance that comes off of it. I mean, and you have all these, Brunetti will like this. You have a creator mode. So it can automatically start up with all the settings that the filmmaker intended it to be.
Starting point is 03:09:27 which I immediately shut off. I shut it off. Like, no, I want it bright. And then you're sitting there like your eyes are burning from this OLEDs. And then you have a reduced blue light. Okay, I'll reduce that. Oh, you can definitely do that. Yeah.
Starting point is 03:09:44 There's a lot of settings you can get it so you're comfortable with what it looks like because it has a huge, it has a bigger color gamut. It has HDR that is dynamite, which is a high dynamic range. so it's the blacks are black and the whites are white. Yeah. It is the O-L-E-D from LG. If you're going to buy a new TV, just bite the bullet and get one of these.
Starting point is 03:10:08 These things are fan-tested. Now, the only thing I'll say is, I guess we've never really had a, HDR and 4K because I never really cared about it. Now I watch movies. It's like, Tina keeps saying, it's like it's live, you know, because it's so, I mean, you really see things that you never saw before. I know I'm late to this party like, duh, okay, boomer, where you've been?
Starting point is 03:10:38 I get it. You finally get, sell your tube TV? The only, I warm that thing up for 15 minutes before I hit the other button. Remember we had that when back in the day, you had color TVs and he had to hit you to warm up, yeah. You had to warm it up. I never had two buttons on the ones we had out here in the U.S. of A. Yeah, and if you hit the wrong button, then it would go on right away. And my dabbing, you didn't warm it up.
Starting point is 03:11:04 It's going to reduce the life of this thing. That's funny. That's funny. The only other thing I really dislike about it is when you grab the remote control, like a mouse pointer shows up on the TV. Yeah, I actually like that. I hate that thing. I just want to use my rocker, you know, the little round rocker. If you didn't jerk it so hard, it's got to grab one of these, one of these, what they're called, gyroscope chips.
Starting point is 03:11:34 So if you grab it gently and hold, it doesn't bring the cursor up. If you shake it, the cursor shows up. Don't grab it. What you're doing is grabbing it like a madman. Grab it. Grab it gently and just move it around gently. And there it is. A double tip of the day. Get them all at tipof the day.net.
