Hey, but you go. Adam Curry, John C. DeVorak. It's Sunday, March 29th, 2026. This is your award-winning Cuban-Nation Media Assassination Episode 1855. This is no agenda. Renaming the Globe and broadcasting live from the heart of the Texas Hill Country here in FEMA region number 6 in the morning, everybody. I'm Adam Curry.

And from the northern San Francisco Bay, Refinery Row, where we had no kink stay. I'm John C. DeVorex. It's crackbott and buzzkill In the morning You guys always have kinks day in San Francisco. No kinks. No kinks, no kinks. This was, this was,

it's so interesting. I was just trying to read through like people who were writing about it. Of course we have clips. We do. Yeah, the big thing that the M5M was trying to emphasize was this line. These events, supported by 500 groups with combined revenues of $3 billion.

This is, you know, what is the, what is the point of that? They're trying to message something. Like, this is, this is scary, the powerful, you know, did two billion go to Bruce Springsteen? I, I don't, I have no clue. It's good to have you here, John. Oh, thank you. How are you feeling? Terrible. I feel terrible.

Yeah. It's a miracle I could do this show. Well, I'm actually quite surprised. Are you sleeping at all or is that not? Well, the sleeping is a problem because you kind of just doze off when you feel like it. But I will say this. Like during the donation segment? Yeah.

It could happen. It could happen. Yeah, you will say this. David Letterman had a quintuple. Yes. And he was on the stage five weeks later. Yeah. Well, he is...

That ain't happening here. He's a superstar. The past five weeks already. No. No. There was five weeks after the operation. You've only had... The operation was 10 days ago.

No, it was on the sixth. Oh, wow. Well, hurry up, will you? Get your spark, man. Here's a little overview of... This is from Euro News. Here's how the Europeans viewed are, No Kings Day.

Millions of people took to the... streets across the United States to participate in the more than 3,100 protests taking place against U.S. President Donald Trump. The rallies denounced what they described as an authoritarian style of governance by the incumbent administration, their immigration stance, climate change denial, isolationist foreign policy, and now the war in Iran. In New York, thousands gathered to protest against sweeping immigration raids carried out by ICE and called for their abolition. The rallies even featured a surprise cameo from New York native and Hollywood giant Robert De Niro. The protests took place in the capital, Washington, D.C., where hundreds gathered near the White House demanding Trump's ouster.

It's the third time in less than a year these protests, part of a U.S. grassroots movement called No Kings take place. The demonstrations spread across the pond, where thousands of Americans abroad and locals took part in rallies across Europe. They were protesting in London. Kings, oops. In Paris, protesters called for an end to Trump's quote, reckless, irresponsible, and endless wars. And in the Italian capital, thousands march calling for respect of international law and demanding a world free from wars. Yeah, I think the branding is off. No Kings. Just hate Trump. That's all that it is. Hate Trump. Did you see that the segment of the New York protest that was literally communists with the red flag and the

no yeah it must have been a couple thousand people oh oh they had the flags they had you know and they had a bunch of jingles that they would say about communism taking over and you know it's all kind of a mixed bag of zeds and maybe some some millennials well I think the the zeds that are in New York

and I have one You know, they all were promised a bunch of stuff, and they probably aren't paying attention that it's kind of not happening. He's like, well, we've got to raise your taxes, you know, raise taxes on property, so you're probably not going to freeze the rents. So they just haven't felt the pain yet. But, you know, the kids are happy. They like their red flags.

Let them wave them for a little bit. I'm not so bothered by it. New York has always been. New York. They'll figure it out. Were you shocked? No, not at all. I'm just surprised they came out so

blatantly. Oh, no. But this has always been the case. We used to arrest people over it in Hollywood and we gave up that gambit. Like, uh, it wasn't so cool to be calling people communists and arresting him. And so now they're rampant. It doesn't

work. I watched a fair bit of it, the Minneapolis stuff, which was, oh, man, they had one crappy band after another. It's like everybody who has a guitar and has written a song was allowed to go up on stage. It was insufferable. And then, of course, the great New Jersey icon Bruce Springsteen takes the stage to confirm all the lies. Hello Minnesota. Woo! Hey.

Turning into a beautiful day. Hey. Well, this past winter, federal troops brought death and terror to the streets of Minneapolis. I just let this past winter, federal troops brought death to the streets of Minnesota. Well, they picked the wrong city. Yeah. Should have gone to Tom's River. The power and the solidarity of the people of Minneapolis and of Minnesota was an inspiration to the entire country.

Your strength and your commitment told us that this is still America. Just not this little piece here, Bruce. And this reactionary nightmare and these invasions of American cities. Invasions of America. Bruce Springsteen, who had... has several hundred million dollars. What happened to the guy? I'd like to know myself.

Do you think it's toxoplasmosis? It very well could be. Something is going on here. You will not stand. You gave us hope. You gave us courage. And for those who gave their lives, Renee Good, mother of three,

Dedly murdered, Murdered. Murdered. Alex Freddie, VA nurse, executed by ICE. Executed. Shot in the back and left to die in the street without even the decency of our lawless government investigating their deaths. Right.

Their bravery, their sacrifice, and their names will not be forgotten. It just can't. It's like the Howard Stern sickness. Yeah. And it's, it's bizarre. It could be cats. It's got to be cats. It's just, it makes no sense.

He's off the rails. Well, he's on, he's not even on rails. It's just like, Bruce, come on, man. It's not going to, I think he's done. Well, he's been, he's been done for a while. It's just so disappointing. I mean, I'm from Jersey. This is not the guy we used to know.

Well, New Jersey's turned blue, so that kind of makes sense. but the craziest was Jane Fonda. And she's, I mean, what is No Kings supposed to be about? I mean, was it even about ICE initially? I can't remember. But the first No Kings was about nothing except Trump. Right, Trump. And then it became, this was kind of the Minneapolis.

So it's about federal troops invading our cities. Invading, yeah. Invading our cities. And then Jane Fonda, I'd really like to just like her. because, you know, here's an elderly woman. She's 87, 88. You know, she, all the work that she's done on herself is, it looks just mind-bogglingly good.

But she makes it so hard for me to like her. And now she's waffling over this. I want to say that the First Amendment suffers greatly in times of war as the government works to crush internal dissent. What? Our parents, our forefathers fought and died for these rights, for these freedoms. We must not sit by quietly and watch them taken away. If we wait to act, if we hesitate out of fear or the feeling that it doesn't affect us, it may be too late.

So this is America? What she talking about? Exactly. This is the land of the podcast where everybody. can say whatever they want about anything or nothing. And so I had to figure out what is she talking about. It made no sense. So I find, luckily, although it was kind of hard to watch, she goes on Mrs. Now with Jen Psocky, and Jen Psocky is fawning over her. And she explains, because she has a group. She has a First Amendment group because your First Amendment rights are

under attack and being removed here in America. And I should note for the audience, you were in Washington, D.C. today, speaking outside the Kennedy Center, foreign events is what I'm referring to in defense of free expression. So tell us about the event and the message you were really trying to get across to people watching. Yeah, because we don't understand. Well, the attacks on the arts, literature, on film, on museums, the National Endowment of the Arts. Oh my.

What attack on museums? What attack on films? This can only be... Tell that the Netflix. Exactly. This can only be that Trump put his name on the Kennedy Center. I can't imagine it's about anything else, but she does slip in... I'm sure that's what it is.

She said gold to everybody so much. She slips in the National Endowment for the Arts. Okay. All of these are under attack right now. Attack! They're being defunded. They're being censored. They're being censored.

Nobody's censoring anything. Well, she kind of... of twists herself in a knot in this short appearance. Removed. Removed. A special, especially racial history, the history of slavery, is all being erased. What? It's being erased?

Have I missed something? Yeah. Okay. And we wanted it. We were, we've been, we've been deluged with the history of race. Deluged. I think we got it. all being erased.

And we wanted it, because it's kind of like here and there, siloed, we worried that people and the press don't see clearly enough the breadth and depth of these attacks. And we have to understand what's happening.

This is not normal. This does not happen in a democracy. And we have to call it what it is and we have to end it. We're the committee for the First Amendment. It's the First Amendment for her. Hold on. She's the committee for the First Amendment. Hold on.

Jen Saki. I didn't see this. But Jen Saki, I'm guessing, goes right to the juggler and askers for specifics. Yeah, no. Yeah, no. What do you mean no? No.

No, it's just, listen, she's on the committee for the First Amendment. Oh, woo. And we have to end it. We're the committee for the First Amendment. Amendment. It's the First Amendment for a reason. It's the most important. It's the cornerstone of all democracies. It's freedom of speech. Freedom of press. It's the First Amendment for a reason. It's the most important. It's the cornerstone of all democracies. It's freedom of speech, freedom of press, freedom of religion, freedom of assembly, and freedom to protest, including the right. Is that in there? Let me go take a look and see if it says freedom to protest.

I'm not sure it's actually in there that way. Freedom of assembly and freedom to protest. For someone who's on the committee, she could at least just cite it verbatim. Including the right to criticize our president if we choose. That's under? This is under attack. Yes, yes. That's under attack.

So, yeah. Yeah, and gee, nobody's ever criticized Trump. It's the oddest thing. I don't, maybe I'm wrong about her, but I never thought, I never thought that she felt the need to be relevant. You know, a lot of Hollywood people do that. I never really pegged her that way. But I guess I can't come up with any other reason for her to be like this.

She, you know, once you invest some money and make some independent films and, you know, do some theater productions. I don't think anyone's going to stop you. But it's somehow it's, maybe there's a defunding of certain things. Maybe that's what she's upset about. But that's not a, that's not the First Amendment. First Amendment doesn't say, oh, you shall get free money for your theater productions. So I was a little confused. What do you have on No Kings? Do you have anything? Nothing. I got no clips. I wasn't going to really talk about it. Well, what's this No Kings rap? then? Well, this is the NPR wrap of No King's Day.

Ha ha. See, you're being censored. Your clips are being obfuscated. No King's protests against President Trump and his policies, including the war in Iran, immigration, voting rights, and the rising cost of living are taking place around the country today. Organizers say more than 3,000 rallies are being held and millions of people are expected to attend. Sarah Ferguson from Minnesota Public Radio has more from a massive rally in St. Paul. There's been a lot of cheering as people, especially non-Minnesotans, have lifted up the people of Minnesota for the way that they've reacted to Operation Metro Surge and really encouraged

others around the country who are watching to take steps to follow up on the things that Minnesotans have done, respecting one another, trying to support their neighbors, and just a lot of cheers here. as some of the speakers say that the country does not want a king and they want to make sure that the people are empowered. Is this all about the ID, about the Save Act? Do you think that's part of it? I didn't see much talk about it.

But, I mean, it just makes no sense. It seems like protests just a protest. No, you know, it's just people with nothing better to do. I have no idea. It's silly. I'm going to say it. It's silly. Yes.

Well, and you pointed it out right at the beginning, which is the silliest part. You know, all these international versions of this, including one in England. No, Kings Day.

Where they have a king. They have a king. Yeah, I'd be trying to figure out the backlash against the Caesar Chavez. Yeah, we're back on that. Yeah, well, it's related.

I think. I think it's related. You think? Yeah, I think it is. in February, RFK Jr. was on Rogan. And he explained what happened. You know, we've throughout, throughout American history, or there's always talk, well, the Republican Party and the Democrat Party,

they flipped, they flipped over. Yeah, bullshit. Well, but this is, this is a kind of a flip that sounds correct. Why don't you ask me about immigration? Because I know that that's something that's disturbed you. Well, what are your thoughts on immigration? On what's going on with? You know, here's the background on my kind of assumptions.

During the last 10 years of his life, I worked very closely with Cesar Chavez. And I worked him with, he had two issues. He had pesticides, which were a huge issue with him, and that's what I worked with him on, on the dangers that, you know, his workers were experiencing from pesticides. And the other issue he had was immigration. He wanted to shut down the border because he saw the way that it was impairing this huge influx of illegal immigration across the border. It was impairing his ability to bargain to leverage good wages and conditions for his workers. And when I grew up, the Democratic Party was against immigration.

And it was the Republican Party who wanted it because the big goal. corporations wanted cheap labor. The Chamber of Commerce was firmly embedded in the Republican Party, and they were all about open borders. Today, the Chamber of Commerce is with the Democratic Party. And so it's one of these switches that is kind of inexplicable to me, but I think, again, it happened because President Trump said, I'm going to fix it with the wall, and that became, you know, it suddenly became open borders, suddenly became a calling card for the

Democratic Party. So there was this flip, which really only had to do with big business. Yeah. Yeah. The two sides. And this is recent, this one, because you can get clips from Schumer. I don't have any on today's show, but, you know, talking and moaning and groaning about immigration.

You can get clips from Hillary, moaning and groaning about immigration. You can get all these clips, but even up to Obama. And now they say just the opposite. Yeah. But you can call it a flip. But what specifically do you think? Is the reason for this? Is the reason?

Three documentaries. American Pacchuko, the legend of Luis Valdez. American agitators, which I think may be out already, and a song for Caesar. American Pacchucco? Yeah. I have no idea what that means. I do. What does it mean?

Well, it's kind of like a punk, a bad guy. You'd call it in the, in the, when I was a kid, I was raised in largely, you know, Hispanic areas. And these guys would call you, hey, butchuko, hey, Pachucco. And Votto, Votto is the other one that used to a lot. Would they call you Pachuco? No, I was a white guy. Nobody even talked to me much. You were just hanging around, me and Julio down by the schoolyard.

Now, I had a lot of friends that, you know, when I was in high school, Hey, but you go. Before they, before they, before they opened up our white, you know, high school, I went to a old Mexico, pretty much a Latino high school. Wait a minute. You know, and it was, you were a minority. Did you get beat up? Did they take your lunch money?

Not at all. In fact, it was just the opposite. Oh, you were gringo. Were they call you, hey, gringo. No, no. They just said, hey, man, that guy's really white. And that's what they'd say. You know, everybody hung on with their own little crowd.

But my, just as an aside, I, to this day, and I've talked about this with everybody I know, I've still impressed with the natural marketing capabilities to some of these, these kids, which at the time, we call them Chicano's. Yeah. And these kids that were, because when we were running for, I think it was sophomore class president, We already knew who's going to win. It might not win, but this one kid came up with this. It was giant posters.

He'd make these long banners. And he won with the phrase, Hernandez is gooder. And it was so catchy. You look at it, you go, Hernandez is gooder. And you say, wow, I don't know what kind of genius came up with that one. but it was a gem and he just kicked ass in the voting. So I'm looking at this, this is from Hawaii Public Radio. They have a report here.

This American Pachuco premiered at Sundance in January. It's slated for release, oh, PBS release in fall, interesting. And here's the line. Recent screenings have become safe spaces for audiences to process the new allegations as the film contains significant footage of shixtaping. Oh, that's funny. There's an oops. Maybe the whole idea was to ruin that film.

Could be. But that RFK Jr. is talking about on Rogan in February. The timing is, you know, the timing is interesting. And maybe there's something afoot. And they're like, oh, crap, they're going to use Hugo Chavez. They're going to use him. We got to do something quick. we got to cancel this guy.

Maybe it's exactly what you talk. Maybe it's the gooder guys. Maybe they're going after the Chicanos. Like, we can't have the Chicano's voting for Trump. That's got to be some angle there, yeah. I'm thinking it has something to do with it. Yeah, could be. Well, we keep looking.

We keep looking. All right, where do you want to go? What's you got? Well, I got a couple interesting little aside. If you want to hear something off the wall, that you haven't even touched upon. Okay. We have, I didn't hear about it, I have to say.

Canada's got, you know, B.C.'s going broke. Oh, are they now? Well, B.C.'s credit rating has been downgraded again. The official opposition says it signals to investors that the province is going broke. Huh. Yeah. BC's going broken. And in fact, the whole country might be going broke.

Listen, played this clip. Canada bank fees. New survey. now CTV puts out a new survey, nearly half of Canadians living paycheck to paycheck. You know, you have another slow clap for all these policies here. Half of Canadians in this rich, rich nation. And then you're going to have, Franco up Philip Champagne is bragging that they're cutting the NSF fees from 50 bucks to 10 bucks because one in three Canadians now writing bad checks.

Without realizing what he's saying, he thinks you're that stupid. One and three Canadians writing bad checks. Half of Canadians living paycheck to paycheck. In a nation as rich as this, you've squandered riches. You've impoverished a nation. And you're bragging on there. He must have done that, took them all day too, because we saw the hard cuts in there, too. They couldn't even stitch together like a moment.

It was just full of like hard cuts as Francois Filippe-Champaign was telling you that you're going to get a grocery credit and you're going to get the $40 off NSF fees. In a nation where the Canadian banking oligopoly books record profits, year, after a year and they won't let competition. They should try and know Kings Day. You've got problems up to that we're not carefully looking at. Well, our producers, and we have a lot of them in Canada, pretty much all of them want to come live here.

I remember during COVID, like, hey, man, can I stay in your attic? Got any space? And then also, which I think is coming to a boil up in Canada, but not so much here. I want to play these clips. This is Land Act 1, China Deals UN. A new measure was announced this week to try and help stimulate the housing market. And it marks the third one that came out just this month.

We ultimately may hear of even more of these to come as the pre-sale market continues to struggle immensely. Plus, we saw another major project go insolvent. I also have updates on where markets are pricing in potential Bank of Canada rate hikes. Plus, there is an incredible theory that has emerged this week as to why the government is making these land agreements with indigenous groups. Okay. All right. Something's going on. Yeah, there's a bunch of weird stuff going on with these indigenous groups. I like the way they call them, the Indians.

Yeah. Play Land Act China deals. Oh, that's the one. Wait, wait, wait. That's the one I just played. No, you play. Oh, no, I see. I got it.

Yeah, the UN? They look the same. The one that looks the same that doesn't have one. Yeah. Land. Okay. Here we go. The strategy focuses on joint ventures and equity positions. In these models, the First Nations retain its right.

First Nations. That's what they are. First Nations. You got it for First Nation. In these models, the First Nations. the First Nations retain its rights and title, while the Chinese partner provides the capital and expertise to develop the resource under a profit sharing or lease agreement.

So while China already remains a bit of a dominant force within the global mineral supply chain, recent and somewhat new Canadian federal policies, on March 26, a report came out that kind of supports this theory. The Bureau, the provincial government's implementation of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous People, People's Act, or DRIPA, combined with a series of landmark court decisions confirming Aboriginal

title over specific territories has rapidly altered the legal landscape governing resource extraction in Western Canada. More land is now subject to indigenous control. More projects require indigenous consent. These are, in principle, corrections to historical wrongs, but also mean that the pathways to Canada's most strategically valuable resources, lithium, cobalt, rare earth, elements, timber and LNG, now runs in many cases directly through First Nations governments. Okay. So they are selling. By the way, with Chinese financing.

Well, yeah. What the yellow man wants, what the white man wants took now they're giving to the yellow man. And it's the minerals. And it's the, oh, man. So are they, are they licking them up first before they put these deals in front of them? This is going on in Washington State also. They're giving property back to the local Indian tribes who already sold the land to the state or the local governments. And then they're pulling the plug on taxes.

They don't have to pay taxes. They get those, they get there's no, uh, regulations or don't count. It's very fishy. The Chinese seem to be behind it. And this UN resolution, which requires people to,

they're the ones behind the land acknowledgments. And I have a whole bunch of them here. In fact, the land acknowledgements seems to be a way of softening us up. Played this clip from this woman who tried to pass a bill

and she's a conservative in BC, and this is the BC mess land acknowledgment story from the CBC. One BC leader Dallas Brody says that land acknowledgments, which are often what you hear when a public official starts an event, they'll say, we're standing on the traditional territories of the Songhees in a Squymult First Nation. She says that that is teaching our children that they live on stolen land, that they should be ashamed of their history. and for that reason that those land acknowledgments should be banned among public employees. Here's a bit of what Dallas Brody had to say. Land acknowledgements are the anthem of a suicidal nation. They tell our children that we stand on stolen land. So now this private members bill was voted down on first reading.

That is quite rare because even MLAs, when they disagree with a private members bill, they'll still vote it through first reading to have a debate on it. not so with bills put forward so far by 1 BC. I will note that the entire BC Conservative caucus voted against the bill except for two, Harmon Bangu and Heather Moss. So this was an unwipped vote, but showing a little bit of, you know, fissures within the BC conservatives on how to approach this bill. And, Katie, what do First Nations leaders say about this proposed bill?

Well, I spoke with Robert Phillips. He sits on the First Nations Political Summit. and a political executive of the First Nations summit. And he says that land acknowledgments are just acknowledging our history and are an important part of reconciliation. We also spoke to BC Conservative House leader Alia Warbus, who is from the Stolo First Nation. And, you know, she's quite disappointed with the spirit of this bill.

And here's a bit of what she had to say. I've lived with racism all of my life. Vos party, Hong Kong, no more to stand with China. That shouldn't be playing anymore, is it? No, it's not playing. So it sounds to me, just listening to it, it sounds like they gave this land to the First Nations, you know, tax-free land, it's all gooder.

And now they're like, well, you know, we're going to acknowledge this, but we're going to have China buy it for the minerals and probably people are on the inside making a killing off of it. Yep. Do you have any clips that confirm this? Not that part, but I'm going to get some because this is a big deal and it's going to kill BC and probably Washington State because they're all suckered into it. And it all stems from this 2016 UN resolution. And I think there's one previous in 2007, 2007, that encourages people to do these land acknowledgments, which is only applicable.

to the United States and Canada. Nobody else does it. The South Americans don't do it. They stepped all over Amazonians. And, you know, it's ludicrous. Which brings me to three clips I have of classic land acknowledgments that I thought were funny enough to play. Okay. So let's start with Paul's Bo, Washington, which is a little town that is a little Norwegian copy of a little Norwegian town in Washington's state.

That is a tourist attraction. Norwegian all the way. And here's, they have a city council meeting. They do this. Hospital is located on the ancestral lands of the indigenous peoples, for whom this place was known as Tuktuq Lai, or the land of the vine maples. And here's a quote by Chief Seattle.

Every part of the soil is sacred in the estimation of my people. Every hillside, every valley, every plain, and grove has been hollowed. by some sad or happy event and days long vanished. Thank you. Thank you, counsel and crotch. Thank you. Thank you. You've acknowledged the land. Very good. Unbelievable. And we don't know it. Most of us don't. That the Los Angeles City Council pulls this stunt. The city of Los Angeles recognizes that we occupy land originally and still inhabited and care for by the Kish Tongva, Tatavian, and Chumash peoples. We honor and pay respect to their elders and descendants, past, present, and emerging as they continue their stewardship of these lands and waters. We acknowledge that settler colonization resulted in land seizure, disease, subjugation, slavery, relocation, broken promises, genocide, multi-generational trauma, disruption of cultural practices, trade and tribal relations.

This acknowledgement demonstrates our responsibility and commitment to truth, healing, and reconciliation, and to elevating the stories, culture, and community of the original inhabitants of the city of Los Angeles. We are grateful to have the opportunity to live and work on these ancestral lands. Wow. This is like Obama time. We've gone back to this acknowledgement. Yeah, and here's the DNC, the latest guy that runs the DNC. When they introduce, when they open a meeting at the DNC, these Democrats, by the way, this is what it sounds like. Good morning, DNC members, friends and relatives. Let's talk about the land for a second. The DNC acknowledges and honors the Dakota O Yate, the Dakota people, who are the original stewards of the lands and waters of Minneapolis.

The Dakota cared for the lands, lakes, and the Wauk Patanka, the Great Wences. River, the Mississippi River, for thousands of years before colonization. This land was not claimed or traded. It's a part of a history of broken treaties and promises. And in many ways, we still live in a system built to suppress indigenous people's cultural and spiritual history. As Democrats, I ask of every one of you to not allow land acknowledgments like these to simply be the checking of a box. Be curious, ask questions, ensure our native neighbors are heard, and work. in partnership with your indigenous communities. Honor the legacy of this land and its people by engaging today with each other with honesty,

humility, respect, and compassion. Yeah. So much talk, talk, talk. Here in Fredericksburg, we are actually bringing Comanchee Nation back. I hadn't told you about this. No. Yeah. Well, the story goes that Fredericksburg had a treaty with Comanche Nation, the Comanchee Nation,

of the Comanchee Treaty of 1847, which we never broke. I'm not quite sure what the treaty was, but I've had no flaming arrows. So I guess it's still in case, in effect. But we're bringing him back to the Hill Country. Actually, it was the Meusebach-Comanchi Treaty of 1847. The Meusebach, Meuse, is one of the original founders of Fredericksburg.

Hey, wouldn't you know we're opening up this huge, like, retail hotel space. It's actually not far from our house. It's on the west side of town, which is going to do a lot to the west side of town. So it's all commercial. And we're bringing them back in for commercial stuff. We're going to do the Frontier Fest at Fort Scott,

Comanche Nation. They're bringing the Comanchees back to add to the tourist attraction list? Yes, yes, exactly. But we're going to pay him. Womp them. But they're going to get paid. It's going to be good. They want them?

Yeah, I think so. I think so. Yeah, we're friendly to the Indian, to our Comanchee nation. Yeah, let's see how that goes. So we'll have that we had the Hill Country Indian Artifacts show. That was just last week. The Comanche Nation meeting took place earlier this week and then Frontier Fest. Where, I don't know, I think we'll build totem poles and stuff.

Yeah. Well, it's better than this. Totem poles are not Comanche. What are totem poles? All those polls are in the Pacific. Haida, H-A-I-D-A-type Indians up in the Pacific Northwest in Canada. Oh, really? Yeah.

Oh, I thought all Indians had totem poles. No, there's just this group. I don't think there's any other outside the state of Washington and BC. All right, shifting gears from the First Nations. The president had another fabulous. cabinet meeting. I don't know if you had a chance to see any of it. Yeah, I watched it.

Some of it was, I thought, entertaining. I thought our future president, Rubio, because man, he's pushing. He's pushing for it. He did his little mic drop Iran speech. The most important job any president has is to keep the American people safe. And every president says it,

but we have a president that means it and does something about it. As the president outlined very clearly to the world on the night this operation began, Iran has been at war with the United States for 47 years. For 47 years, Iran has been killing Americans and attacking Americans across this planet. And now the presidents had an opportunity to do something about it. And they all warned about how Iran was dangerous, but they refused to act. And this president's not someone that's going to refuse to act.

He's not going to leave a danger like this in place. He's going to address it, and that is what he is doing. From the very first night of this operation, the president made it very clear. People like this. And now what I'm talking about is not the people of Iran. The people that run this country are radical Shia clerics. These are religious fanatics. Look what they are doing now. At their weakest point, this is the weakest Iran has ever been. And look at what they're doing. They're attacking embassies. They're attacking hotels. Imagine what these people would do if they had a nuclear weapon. That is an unacceptable risk for the world. By the way, the president's not just doing a favor to the United States and to our people. This is for the world. He defined very clearly on the first night of this operation what the goal was. We were going to destroy Iran's Navy, and that is happening. We were going to, if it hasn't already happened, I'll let Pete speak to the specifics of it.

We were going to destroy their missile launching capabilities. We're well underway to achieving that goal. We were going to destroy the factory so they couldn't make more missiles and more drones, and that is moving forward. Every single objective the president clearly laid out on the first night of this operation is being effectuated. Again, Pete will speak to the specifics of it. This has been an incredibly successful operation.

Every day, it may not get covered. because, you know, we're unlike them. We're not bombing embassies and hotels. We're hitting military targets. What I like about Rubio in these cabinet meetings is he speaks to the press. Everyone else is like, oh, Mr. President, oh, under your leadership, oh, I'm Mr. President. And Rubio just goes for it. He's like, no, no, let me just tell you press people what I think.

So our gay General Patton, Scott Besant, I thought he was the most interesting of the meeting. Did you see any of what he said? I can't think of anything. Well, here's his intro where he, I think he's saying that my job is important because economic security and financial security is national security. Your economic leadership has made our military mission possible. Mr. President, national security, as you always say, is economic security. Your leadership has shown the American people that there is no prosperity. without security.

Our mighty military on one side, but the U.S. economic strength is fighting off this evil regime. The Iranians believe they are fighting a two-front war. It is the military war that our

great warriors are prosecuting, but on the other side, they are trying to take control of the global economy through a choke point that we believe does not exist and that we will overcome. The historic operation at Epic Fury seized a generational opportunity to demolish a regime that has coordinated over four decades of global terror and claim thousands of American lives. Many people, especially the Democrats, underestimate the will of the American

people for short-term volatility for 50 years of safety that we are going to have on the other side of this. And I believe energy prices will be lower, inflation will be lower, before we had the appearance of security, which is not real security. Now, the American people and the world will have absolute security. I've been talking to the oil baron a lot lately, you know, for obvious reasons, because he's right in the middle of this. So he bought $77 put. and a $150 calls on his oil. I thought, you know, I'm not quite sure what that means. His arbitrage.

Yeah, oh, it's complete arbitrage. So, but that's his risk spread is, hey, we can't lose if it goes below 77 and we're not going to win above 115. But he too, he says, I am surprised, and I thought a Texas oil man would know, because I'm surprised how impacted the world is by the, by the Iranian. regime by the by the straight. I had no idea. I'm getting here. I'm getting notes from one of our producers. Actually that's yeah the guy. Now somebody in the cabinet

or in the Department of War or somebody in the CIA or somebody in they had to know that this was going to happen. Oh, they must have known. And I think it's I mean what if they didn't?

Well, the next clip tells me I think they did, but it makes a lot more sense now that Obama sent hundreds of millions of dollars on pallets over to Iran because everyone was afraid of this. Like, ah, I don't want this on my watch. I don't want this nonsense happening. Maybe. But Besant, what he says in this, this thing was planned for a long time. This could be him saying it after the fact, but I'm going to take it at face value. they were planning this for over a year. Through your maximum pressure campaign, Treasury has worked to uncover

all financial lifelines through the regime and cut them off. You gave that order last March. This was not something that happened overnight. This is something that has been contemplated for almost a year. The Iranian financial system collapsed in December.

We have systematically weakened Iran's ability to fund operations and procure weapons, and that required months of preparations. Threats to American national security have no place in the global economic system. The oil market is well supplied. We have taken actions to ensure oil supplies stranded at sea are made available to the global market. Your bold actions like the development finance corporations, maritime reinsurance program in conjunction with central command will soon provide shippers.

through the Gulf region with a level of security we had never seen before. Mr. President, we are starting to see more and more movement in and out of the Gulf today. And this is more than yesterday. And this is the beginning. I am confident that shipping traffic will continue to increase on a daily basis even before we secure the straits. So it sounds like they were on this, cutting off their financial lines, making sure that they were, They depleted some of their capabilities and then struck. Once Netanyahu told them to, of course.

So it sounds like they had a plan here. Well, I'm sure they did. I'm not sure that they expected it to go this way. I guess Rubio has some comment that's going to last another four weeks. Yeah, I think I have that here. Hold on. John Kennedy also said that when we just get out, we won. Which is my approach.

Where's the, where's my Rubio? I had another, here we go. This was on the tarmac. This is not going to be a pro-on conflict. The objectives I've outlined to you. Again, I repeat them because I see these reports, like, are the users not clear on what objectives are. We've been as clear as you can possibly leave from the very first night of what the objectives of this mission are.

We're going to destroy their factories that make missiles and rockets and drones. We're going to destroy their Navy. We're going to destroy their air force. And we are going to significantly destroy their missile launchers. So they can never be hide behind these things. to get a nuclear weapon. We are achieving all those objectives. We are ahead of schedule on most of them,

and we can achieve them without any ground troops, without any. Now, in terms of why there's deployments, number one, the president has to be prepared for multiple contingencies, which I'm not going to discuss in the new year. And again, I refer you to the Department of War, who will probably tell you the exact same thing. But we can achieve all of our objectives without ground troops, but we are always going to be prepared to give the President

maximum optionality and maximum opportunity to adjust to contingencies should be emerged. Optionality. So just back to the cabinet meeting for a moment. So after Besson does this whole thing and then he says how great everything here is at home, which I think most people who are listening would dispute, without a doubt, Europe, UK, Asia. I mean, they're talking about going back to work from home. It's like, we got no gas. It's going to be the worst since the 70s.

Yeah, we're paying more, but I don't think we have those types of problems. No. I'm sure that we can ride that out a lot longer. So he goes through this whole thing, and then here's what the president says. I just want to ask you a question. Is this guy Central Kingston? I'm looking at him. I'm in Treasury.

He might not be so good for war. I don't know. I'm looking pretty good too. I'm looking at this guy. He's central. casting is even the glasses are perfect we need to get glasses I think I'm going to get glasses that's beautiful good now he's not a great job that's really good now he's not a great job and you all have proud of you all proud of you all right well at least it sounds like he has a plan

it's not written down anywhere on paper that we can read but well I'm sure it's written down somewhere why do you think we need to get out so quickly I mean besides the fact that war sucks Well, if we've done all every, here's my problem. The stuff that Trump says that we've done, we just take out their Navy, the Army, the guys, this guy, that guy, there's no air force, there's no command and control, there's nothing, has left a vacuum of these IRG renegades. I think they're all acting independently, and they're all over the place.

And each one of them might be wanting to vie for power. at some point and you've got to let this thing settle out. Otherwise, you're never going to get the streets open again because one nutball or another or any number of them someplace with some of those Shaheed drones, for example, can keep the thing shut down forever. The problem with the Shahid drone, which is always fascinated me, and I don't understand how this happened, those things cost $75,000 to make. they have wooden props and they go slow and then they get the big bomb and I mean they blow stuff up and they're not that great

but they're basically modern v ones yeah kind of with with a less with a less advanced propulsion system yeah and so the 75 it cost us we they shoot them down unless you can get a jet a jet up in the air which is not cheap it costs us a million bucks to shoot one down well 330 thousand dollars for a missile so it's $300,000 to $75,000. I mean, you go broke. They have enough of these things. So get out, let things settle down, let the streets get reopened so people don't freak out.

And see what happens. But that doesn't seem to be the idea. The idea seems to be... No, no, it's definitely not the idea. No, the idea seems take Karg Island and be in control of everything. and they still want to get rid of some of these IRCGC guys. But here's General Frank McKenzie, retired, on with Margaret from this morning. One of the things that Iran had been waiting to do was activate its militias,

or the militias that supports in Yemen, the Houthis, over the weekend, they jumped into the fight. Yeah, we were missing those guys. They hadn't shown up, and all of a sudden, right on cue. and fired on Israel. Do you think that this is a game changer, given that they could not just disrupt the Strait of Hormuz, but another passageway through the Red Sea?

Margaret, I don't think it'll be a game changer. Their ability to attack Israel is quite limited. Yes, they will have the ability to further stop slow traffic through the Babelman Deb going up into the Suez Canal. We have the ability to go down there and prevent that. It will require additional resources, but we have those resources. and we can certainly do it if that becomes necessary.

Well, the president has made clear that he needs to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. His language has been contradictory on some of these points as to who's going to do it and when. What's the military reality of making it passable? We're on our way to doing that now, Margaret. This is part of a plan that's been in existence for many years. What we're doing right now is we're reducing Iranian ability to target ships in the strait through their short range. missiles, their drones, and other activities. We do that by maintaining air superiority over southern Iran

on a 24-7 basis, looking for where these missiles are and striking them relentlessly. Once we reduce those to a very low level, then you'll be able to go in. If necessary, sweep for mines. I'm not certain they put mines in the water yet. I predict eventually they will. It's their nature.

But we have the ability to do this. We're on plan. I'll be honest with you, Margaret. I've simulated this many years and many positions at Central Command. We're a little further along than we would have expected to be at this point in all the simulations that I've seen. All right. So they were ready for this. It's been a plan for years. Everybody says we're further along.

Yeah, well, let's go to the next question. So the president had posted, he's postponed the deadline to open the Strait of Hormuz as a result of the Iranian government asking for it. He says he's shifted that to April 6th at 8 p.m. We also hear from the Secretary of State that he's talking to the allies about a post-conflict necessity of having other countries help to essentially police the strait. And he said that you will need tankers to have military escorts. So this doesn't sound like this is a short-term project. This sounds like even if combat ends, we're going to be talking about a military escort. military presence in the region for some time. Am I wrong?

Margaret, you could be right. Let's see what happens. I think a negotiated, there are two ways the Strait of Hormuz can be opened. It can be opened if the Iranians negotiate with us to open it. And, of course, that's the desired solution. The other solution would be if they don't and they decide to fight. We can open the strait under that condition too. The second condition is obviously a lot more intensive in terms of ships and equipment that would have to bring into the region. And yes, help from our allies would certainly be very useful in that case. We have the ability to open the Strait of Hormuz under any condition that the Iranians choose to exist under. Yeah.

So we're maybe keeping it artificially closed. Final clip is boots on the ground. Does it appear to you that one of the contingencies that the White House is planning for, given that they're continuing to move troops into the region? And you have these Marines who are moving into the area as well. Are they preparing for a ground troop presence? And what does that look like? Margaret, for many years, we've considered options along the southern coast of Iran.

We're seizing islands, seizing small bases, typically raids, and a raid is an operation with a planned withdrawal. You're not going to stay. But some of those islands you could seize and hold, that would have a couple effects. First of all, it would be profoundly humiliating for Iran and would give us great weight in negotiations. The second, the example of Kargaile, which everyone talks about, if you seize Cargillan, you really can shut down the Iranian

oil economy completely. And the beauty of seizing it is, you're not destroying it. You're retaining it for further use by the global economy, and possibly for return to Iran under certain conditions. So all of these things, this is not back of the envelope calculations. These are

things we've been working on for many years. And I think we're right to threaten the entire littoral, to hold all these options out there. And I think the president's message is spot on when he talks about all these alternatives. So season hold is the... That brings me to this screwy clip I picked up off of a recording done like four in the morning on one of the networks. Was that one of your, oh my God, I can't sleep mornings? No, it was just running. This is a Navy Intel guy. And we know Navy intelligence is the progenitor of all these people. Yeah, they typically,

typically do podcasts. And he's like, yeah, this guy would be one of them. They're on X and do podcasts. And he is, uh, X, of course, ex-Nabby Intel. And the funny thing is great. He's got all his up-to-date information for some unknown reason. I don't know. And I thought this was, because this kind of ties in with what the other guy just said.

So let's bring in former naval intelligence officer, Captain Todd Sawhill. Captain, thank you for joining us. Help Square for us the fact that we just heard Secretary of State. Marco Rubio saying that this is about two to four weeks left, but yet reports of 10,000 more troops being sent to the region after we already know the 82nd Airborne on their way, and then, of course, that Marine 31st Mu is on its way. So I think the movement of the ground forces and the enablers, and as you mentioned, particularly the Boxer and the Tripoli amphibious ready groups and the Marine Expedition Union's

plus the elements of the 82nd really center around making sure the president has maximum options. Optionality. Ground operations in any part of Iran are necessary. And before I just list off all the key islands, I don't necessarily want to focus on that because I don't want to telegraph what we may or may not do because really that's the decision-making level for the president of the Secretary of Defense. But beyond holding territory at risk, those forces could also be used for internal security

in and around the bases in the region, as well as potentially raids for the nuclear material should President determine that's the only way to retreat. it because we're currently as such loggerheads on the conditions for cessation between the U.S. and Iran. So ultimately, it's all about options as we continue to really set the conditions with rolling back the missile, drone, and air-to-ground forces that have been significantly degraded over the last three weeks. Right.

So that fits in with Rubio's optionality. Everything's an optionality. So we have options. Here's the Boots on the Ground update from our producer in the region, which I thought was interesting. Wild morning, still alive, been up since 2 a.m., followed by the most aggressive five hours in Bahrain, 20 ballistic missiles, and 37 drones. The trend seems that they are aggressively swarming the skies to overcome the good interception rates. The problem here is that the country is just too small for that kind of action.

The overall size of the whole island is the size of San Diego or Austin, and the economy is too small for such a beating. Each interception is a Patriot missile, which he says costs a couple of. million. We are still trying our best to build a tourism economy and that is really hurting our strained economy. So our good friend Netanyahu decided to aggressively bomb three steel plants across Iran. For some reason, unlike all other targets, Israeli press explicitly stated steel plants were hit, although they don't usually reveal this type of target in most cases. In return, our good neighbors, Iran, decided to attack five steel and aluminum plants in the GCC, stating to punish the for attacking civilian infrastructure.

The guy was crazy enough to bomb near Bouchard nuclear facility, an active nuclear power plant, which triggered an alarmed response from the whole region on potential nuclear meltdown, and Putin himself, as the plant is operated by Russia's State Atomic Energy Corporation, Rossatom. The U.S. seems to be building a massive set of ground troops as a deterrent to push the negotiation under extreme pressure, and the Israelis are trying every possible way to expand and complicate the conflict. A ground invasion is nearly impossible.

Taking away islands within the effective shooting range of Iran may result in high casualties among the best marine units that the U.S. has to offer. Let's hope Trump can retain him further because he causes a bigger mess. He's talking about Netanyahu and maybe manage to get JD to the front to build his peacemaker legacy and secure the GOP vote for the next 10 years. So that's how they're thinking in the region. which sounds about right. That's about right.

So we had CPAC, which this is the first time President Trump has not attended CPAC due to the war and other things. He's busy. But they had some interesting speakers. Reverend Franklin Graham came out, pretty unimpressive speech. I didn't pull any clips from it.

And he's mainly because he started. off with. You know, Iran, we had a weak president and Jimmy Carter and they had our people in the embassy for 400 days. And the minute President Reagan came in, they let them all out because they were afraid of him. I'm like, no, I don't think so, Rev. I don't think so, Reverend. That was a different deal at the time. But also invited was the crown prince, Reza Palavi, which, I don't know, well, it seemed like CPAC was almost the conservative Persian action Congress, or whatever they call it, convention, because the Persians came out like crazy for this guy. The only thing that the remnants of this regime can be relied on to do is to buy time, to cheat, and to steal.

They will never be honest or true partners for peace. President Trump was right when he said we don't want to come back every two years but if a faction of the regime is left in power that is exactly what will happen it will buy time it will pretend to negotiate and then it will return to its old

jihadist ways of threatening America its security and its interests they might promise a short period of artificial calm but it would inevitably be followed by the same terrorism, the same nuclear blackmail, and the same cries of death to America. Because the truth is simple, the Islamic Republic cannot reform itself. You cannot reform a snake. Venom is in its DNA.

This extends to the corrupt and brutal thugs of the IRGC. because the IRGC is not Iran's national army. Indeed, it does not even have the world Iran in its name. It is the Islamic Revolution Guard Corps. It serves its own poisonous ideology of terror and not Iran's national interests. So it can certainly never be a partner to serve America's interests. So I cut all of those applause. I had to cut out 15 seconds.

I'm sure they went on forever. 15 seconds. And then they started chanting. Pahlavi! Thank you so much. Palavi! Thank you so much. I have four minutes left. I'm halfway through my speech. I'll tell you.

Huh? You know, when I was a student in Berkeley, it's the same Iranian students who promoted the getting rid of the Shah, the Shah must go. Yeah. It was the American Persians that pretty much created this, this monstrosity that they're stuck with. And now this, you know, these kids, these kids, they just don't get it. I don't know if they're going to get it right ever.

You're saying it wrong. These kids. I can't quite do it. These kids. So I'll just finish up with him 30 seconds of President Trump rocks. The only path to lasting peace and stability runs through a clean break. with this regime. For the first time in 47 years, President Trump's strategy has given us a real chance to achieve that outcome. For decades, every American president since Jimmy Carter

chose to try to manage this looming threat rather than resolve it. Each of them has failed. They have only made the problem worse. The result has been more dead Iranians and more dead Americans. So the mullahs operated on the assumption that America didn't have the stomach to confront them decisively. That assumption began to collapse when President Trump ordered the strike on Qasem Soleimani. Yeah. So plan or no plan? Well, you know, Carter didn't have the stomach to stop it. It stopped it. Reagan didn't have the stomach once after the barracks were blowed up he took off. Nobody wanted to do anything about this.

Yes. And then we had Bush. He was too busy protecting his oil fields in Iraq or daddy's oil fields and Kuwait. And Obama went, let me just hang out with the Muslim Brotherhood and I'll pay you guys. Yeah, I'll pay you guys off

and shh, shh, calm down here. And so Trump, this is his legacy move. That seems clear. And, well, I hope he pulls it off. War is not my favorite thing. Well, we'll see. Anyway, he goes. I think I have a clip about some of this.

Where's my analysis clips? You're back to full strength. You're titling them anal, so you must be on the mend. What? I type what? Oh, that means analysis. Yeah, I know. No. Yes, I'm aware. I've been around you. Well, there's one about the, we might as well bring the Lebanese stuff in, and then we can look for the other one. Lebanese.

Lebanese vicinity stuff. This is a overview of what the Israelis are doing where we're trying to take over Iran. Connected to this is fighting that's happening in Lebanon. That's where Israel has launched an invasion of the south of the country, and Iran-backed, has Spala has been firing back. Can you just update us and what's happening there? Absolutely. There have been more than a million Lebanese displaced, and that's like 20% of the population, as Israel depopulates entire towns and Beirut's huge southern suburbs. And the impact of that invasion and the fighting between Israel and Hezbollah is becoming increasingly dangerous to document. Israel today killed three journalists in an airstrike on their

vehicle. One of them was a correspondent for Hispola's television channel who has been reporting from the South for almost 30 years. Israel claimed without evidence, claimed, without evidence, he was a Hezbollah operative, in fact, a member of one of their elite forces. But the actions that Israel described, identifying where Israeli forces were and contacts with Hisbalah, are actually normal journalistic practices. Israel didn't comment on the other two. journalists killed with him. We've talked so far about the latest developments in this now month-long war, but are there other repercussions worth pointing to right now for other countries? Absolutely. This war is so different because it's really difficult to find any country untouched

by this in the region. You know, one of the effects is that some of the busiest airports in the region have shut down, leaving people stranded. Israel has restricted outgoing flights, and this week, the U.S. Embassy in Israel announced it was arranging buses from Israel to the Amman airport in Jordan to fly people out of here. Kuwait announced that its airport radar had been damaged. Its airport has been closed for almost a month. I love how she portrays how it's the beautiful southern, beautiful suburbs of southern Lebanon. Lebanon has been a mess since I was a kid. At one time it was the Paris of the Middle East.

Yeah, in the 60s, late 60s. Probably late 60s. Yeah. Well, I mean, Iran was cool then too. Here's the clips. This is the Iran-Huthi's update in PR. Iranian-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen have entered the U.S. Israeli war in Iran, firing a missile at Israel, which Israel says was intercepted.

It's the first time Israel faced fire from that country since the war began, and it opens a new front in the two-month-old conflict. Meanwhile, the Pentagon says around 3,500 sailors and Marines have arrived in the Middle East. And Pierre Shondal East Duster has more. U.S. Central Command said Saturday in a social media post that about 3,500 sailors and Marines arrived in a Middle East aboard the USS Tripoli. The 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit, based in Okinawa, Japan, arrived in the Middle East on Friday. the post said. The unit also has transport and strike fighter aircraft as well as amphibious assault and tactical assets. U.S. Central Command did not say with mission the unit will be carrying out. At least 2,000 additional soldiers have been ordered to deploy to the Middle East, where the U.S. already has 40,000 to 50,000 troops. People always leave out the fact you already have 50,000 troops there. Oh, yeah.

Scattered around. Yeah. So, and here's the analysis. We're joined by NPR's Jane Araf, whose following events from Amman Jordan. Jane, thanks for taking the time. Thank you. Can you start with telling us what happened in Saudi Arabia? Well, this was an attack on the Prince Sultown Air Base, and that's a Saudi base, but it's also a regional U.S. military hub that focuses on aerial refueling and missile defense systems,

at least six missiles and more than two. two dozen drones were fired by Iran, according to U.S. officials who requested anonymity. And military experts are calling it a serious breach of U.S. air defenses. Several of those wounded service people were reported to be seriously wounded. The attacks also damaged refueling tankers. Iran released Chinese satellite images that appear to show burning aircraft, and it said it had destroyed two of the airborne tankers. They refuel fighter jets in the air and damaged others.

That's after Israel struck three Iranian steel plants and a nuclear facility. The international nuclear watchdog said there was no risk of radiation leak from that strike. Yeah. There's a lot of action. There's definitely a lot of action. The GCC, the Gulf, is it the Gulf Commonwealth? What do they call that, GCC? I'm not sure.

GCC. Well, they call them the GCC. states. So they have also filed with United Nations, just like the U.S. did under Article 51 saying, hey, we are reaffirming our full and inherent right to self-defense. And we're going to start striking back. So it looks like we've got them on our side. Although I still got a lot of military

commentary saying, no, everyone hates us. They want us out of our bases. I don't know. You're right. A lot of action. We don't actually know anything. Breaking news. Nobody knows nothing. Right. So President Trump had a Saudi investor summit, which is all money coming into America. And he had some interesting commentary. They are negotiating. They're begging to make a deal. They're begging to make a deal. It turned out I was right. They were negotiating, which they admitted two days later. And in order to make up for their misstatement, they said, we're going to send you eight ships of oil.

And the following day I saw on, this is two days ago I saw in one of the networks. Very strange. There were eight ships of oil coming out of Iran. And then they actually said, we're going to add an extra two. And they added an extra two. So we had ten ships. And then people realized we were actually negotiated. And we're negotiating now and be great if we could do something.

But they have to open it up. They have to open up. the straight of Trump, I mean, harmuth. Excuse me for this. I'm so sorry. Such a terrible mistake. The fake news will say, he accidentally said now.

There's no accidents with me, not too many. If they were, it would have a major story. Well, we had that with the Gulf of Mexico. Remember the Gulf of Mexico? And then he goes into this whole Gulf of America thing. The straight of Trump. Okay. But by the way, there's no evidence that there was any eight or to ten ships that went through with none.

I've seen, if anything, too. Yeah. Well, this is one guy has a video show on YouTube. Yeah, yeah. It's the state of shipping today, I think, is what it's called. Yeah, he's like, yeah. He attracts every single ship. I don't see it.

He says. He said, where is where is he? What is he talking about? No, there's zero ships. But he also said, well, there's a lot of GPS spoofing and that ship is over there, but I think it's over here. So, you know, nobody really knows anything. Well, there's, again, no evidence. No evidence.

I think Trump's full of it. Well, that wouldn't be the first time. But you don't know. No, you know. It's a problem. Besson says that, you know, there's oil at sea. That we do know. Yeah, tons.

So, and he's allowing that to be offloaded. So that's probably helping somebody somewhere. And NATO is still very much in the crosshairs. This is NATO. And I've always said NATO's a paper tiger. And I always said, we help NATO, but they'll never help us. And if the big one ever happened, and I don't think it will. But if the big one ever happened, I guarantee you they wouldn't be there.

And we learned from that. and remember what I said, because they made a big mistake. They were not there. The Chancellor of Germany, these are all friends of mine, Friedrich. People are the President of Germany. He said, this is not our war. We have nothing to do. Well, Ukraine is not our war, but we help them.

He keeps slamming NATO. I'm not sure what the plan is, but he keeps talking about it. I'm like, oh, they weren't here to help us. And then, and this was quite telling. and this is regarding our own economy here and the fabulous AI hype that we're in. This is kind of telling the way he answered this question. We'll take some questions. Thank you.

Thank you very much, Mr. President. Thank you so much. And thank you for accepting to take five questions. We don't want to take too much of your time. So let's talk about business. In one sentence, where should the world invest in America right now? Well, look, the one that they're going crazy about is AI. AI.

Now, sometimes you'll say, let's go the opposite, because I've seen it. You know, everyone goes, but AI is going crazy. AI, so my family, we made Don, the whole family. Erica's doing a good job. All of us, Ivanka. We liked real estate. When you can make money in real estate, it's a great business. But I see some of these guys come into my office.

They're wearing a T-shirt, and they're 24 years old. Dad, he's got a nethered. net worth of $24 billion. I said, you've got to be kidding. Off a little contraption. So, but the money seems to be... I was going to stop. Offer a little

contraption. Yeah, it's contraptions. His contraptions are doing it. Dad, he's got a net worth of $24 billion. I said, you've got to be kidding. Off a little contraption. So, but the money

seems to be right now AI. And also, If you're in school, like you're going to the Wharton School or the Stern School or any of these great schools, I mean, the numbers that they're paying to go into that business is incredible, where you see people getting a $10 million bonus to sign. Like baseball players or football players, we're giving you a $10 million. I mean, I hate to say because it sounds ridiculous, but there have been some $100 million bonuses paid to sign. So I think probably if you're going to say one thing, AI, and just hope that it works, right?

You better hope. He's like, I hope it works. Well, it seems like we have this interesting race now between open AI and anthropic, who's going to come out first, who's going to go public first? Yeah, this is funny. And Anthropic is, for all I can. can see they're killing it. Because those guys focused on one thing and one thing only, code.

Make sure the thing can code. And all the developers I know have now moved over to Claude. Everybody's using Claude to code. It's not a chat, but like, you know, it's not like, like, open AI, they focused on kind of general chat, entertainment, answering questions. they don't seem to have the the coding part down as much but they certainly have the user base

and then we got a boots on the ground because I'm always wondering how things are going to how they're paying for all of this this is from what's this Natalie I think I was at the playground the other day and started talking to one of the dads there uh-huh hitting up the dads at the playground He mentioned he worked in the finance department of Google for the Gemini group.

I mentioned I was curious about the profitability of AI because I heard a lot of companies are bleeding money. A big grin popped up on his face. He told me that Gemini was profitable because they've integrated the entire supply chain. Google doesn't have to rent out data centers. They already have them. Or buy chips from Nvidia. They developed their own, I think. Yeah.

We wanted to discuss more, but his little girl started. get upset so he had to move to a different part of the playground. Gemini, they have an interesting, for search, they've got a great advantage. They've got all the YouTube stuff and they've got Google and now they're, well, who are the winners going to be? And Rick Bito, our boy, Rick Bito over there, the music guy, he's come to the same conclusion I have about using local models at home. And this is what I think is going to happen with these AI companies.

The data centers, they're going to be sitting there unused. Many of them will not be built when people start using AI locally, meaning on their computer. And the same thing to happen to the music business and recording is going to happen to these AI companies. Because people are going to realize, oh, I can do this at my house. I don't need to be paying these companies. If a 64-year-old guy like me can figure this out last night and show you today, how hard can this stuff be?

People are using these things, Suno and UDO and everything for music creation. People are taking their business contracts and everything. They're feeding into chat GPT. People are taking any of their business things, their financial information. They're feeding into these things, and they're training off your data that you own yourself, your own personal information, your own intellectual properties. And why is that?

Because you and me are the product. So who are the winners and losers of this? Well, the companies that make hardware like Apple, Google, Nvidia, any company that makes computers, computer chips, things like that, those are the ones that are going to be the winners. Unfortunately, the ones that are going to be the losers, in my opinion, are the companies that make these AI programs. For most people's needs, individuals, and businesses,

even good-sized businesses, you can do these things on your own computers offline. What are you doing with your mic? I got my foot tangled up in the cord. Careful. You know, Apple may have a really interesting advantage here. They have that, the M4

what is it called? It's not, uh... Yeah, I don't know what it's called. But let me what you're mentioning that. I should mention something J.C. talked about. He says that new Apple laptop. Yeah. 595 bucks.

Oh, yeah. Yeah. It finally has a touchscreen and he says it's a killer. Yeah, that really got underplay or downplay. You didn't get played at all. I didn't even know anything about it. it. But I know that it's colorful. Well, I know that the Mac minis are sold out for months. Everybody's got a Mac Mini.

Yeah, but it's the, what is the, they have a special, so they use their RAM, their regular RAM. I don't know. Yeah, you can load it up with RAM, you can load it up with 256 gigabytes or more. I think, I don't know about the Mac Mini. And it can automatically allocate some of that RAM instead of, uh, a GPU like an invidia card. So they may accidentally have done something really, really smart.

We'll see. Yeah. Obviously, we'll see. We don't know. Nobody knows anything, John. And then, this is the best. I'd love to hear your opinion on this. Ignition and Lipson.

I have a clip. What is the clip? You don't know what my clip is yet. Yeah, there's Artemis. No, no, wrong. evaluation. Elon Musk's SpaceX is suiting up to launch its IPO, a public share sale that would value the rocket company at an eye-watering $1.5 trillion. First reported by the tech site the information, the sale is expected to float some 5% of the company's equity, aiming to raise

around $75 billion, which would make it the largest IPO in history. Unlike many tech firms seeking investor funding on public markets, SpaceX already has significant cash. flow, largely thanks to the lucrative government contracts it receives and its major profit generator Starlink. The satellite internet provider is estimated to have generated $8 billion in 2025, accounting for 50 to 80% of SpaceX's total revenue. So I go public? The SpaceX acquisition of XAI in February saddled it with a cash-hungry subsidiary that is reportedly burning through a billion dollars per month, as it uses to catch up with rivals like OpenAI.

and Anthropic, both of which are also planning to go public. IPO proceeds would also fund further development of the Starship Rocket and more aspirational projects like AI data centers in space and moon-based Alpha, a self-reliant lunar city. The move comes with potential downsides for the notoriously regulation of reverse Musk, like requirements for public performance reports and having to answer to Wall Street analysts. 1.75 trillion dollar valuation. Are you kidding me?

that's that's that's crazy and he's talking about yeah we're gonna we need one what do you say one terawatt of compute it's like i don't i don't think investors are buying his bull crap anymore and we'll see i bet it sells out you think really yeah it's only a small part of the company they're not unloading everything. No, but still, the valuation is high. It's ridiculous. And his, and XAI is junk. It's junk.

Because it was trained on junk. It's just junk. Yeah, and all he ever touts on X is, oh, look at this. Oh, look at this animation of this pixie girl flying around a clock. Looks great. I'm like, okay. Who's going to pay for that?

Yeah, my money's... All these IPOs are going to be the death and nell of the market. Well, everyone has to get out. We got to... They won't make it. We got to... Well, the early investors will get out. No, maybe.

No, no, no. I'm reminded of that game company back in the 80s that waited one day too long to do the IPO and the market crashed. Oh, what was that Sega? No, no, Sega was no. Sega is different. No, it was specifically a cartridge company that made cartridges for the Atari 2,600. Wow. Here's, I thought you, I thought you might be bringing this up, which was my astronaut clip, which is very disappointing, if true.

I know. We're all disappointed, John. The NASA astronaut who suffered that medical scare offering new insight tonight. Mike Fink says he suddenly could not speak for 20 minutes on the International Space Station. His crew, of course, noticing him in distress, it prompted that first medical evacuation for NASA. Fink now saying doctors believe it was not choking or a heart attack, but he's still undergoing tests to determine what it really was. Yeah, yeah, that was not, if true, that was not your prediction, I should say, your prediction of a pregnancy, pregnancy in space. And notice something like that where you can't talk for 20 minutes never happens to a female astronaut, just saying.

Yeah, there it is. Took me a minute to get it out, but there it is. I've got an offbeat clip if you want to hear it. Sure. Alex Jones has a new sidekick. He does? The guy's name is bashing or something. No, bashing is the name of the clip.

He's introduced in here. This guy, Alex has always had this second, you know, these secondary guys that come in. You could fill in and do it, show. themselves. Yeah, and they eventually run off and do their own shows. Yeah, like that British kid and his whole bunch. You could have become one of them. Yeah, but I already had a partner who I love and cherish. Yeah, well, and although I'm noticing my voice is starting to sound like him today. You know what I'm saying? Try this. I've read the documents.

I've read the documents. I know their plan. I know their plans. maybe so here he is bashing he's he hates the zeds for some reason here he is with his buddy his new buddy bashing the zeds and i just just an eye roller for burma's good to see i've been loving you host of the show what a crazy time to be alive here it certainly is Alex and just to kind of piggyback on what you were talking about via this generation and being just addicted to the scroll box. And it's not just this idea of track, trace database. It's not just this idea of totally and completely taking away their attention.

The studies are now out. This was going to be part of me talking about AGI, what's going on right now with these data centers. But we're talking about a generation right now, Generation Z, quote unquote, that is... interested in the real world. They don't want to date. They don't want jobs. They don't want a car because it's their own little comfortable world. Well, they're 40% less cognizant in both speech and writing, period, full stop. I mean, it's not just that they-

Major studies. 40% less cognizant in speech and thought literally retarded. So bottom line, studies proven plus you see it, iPhones and games have literally made the younger generations retarded. Well, looking at this way, Alex, you know, my generation, your generation were only about five years apart. I would argue maybe the people 10, 15 years younger than us are really

what created this idea of a podcast. I mean, you're a pioneer in that outside of the mainstream media, aka long form content. Yet, when we started seeing these video platforms ever emerging, you just mentioned

meta, well, they own Instagram. This is a bunch of bull crap. I thought so, too. So come on. I stopped it at that point where he brings up the obviosity that meta, what, you say something like, you know what? Hey, Adam, Adam, Adam, I'm here what? You know what, Adam?

What? Meta owns Instagram. No, get out of town. Next, you're going to tell me they won't WhatsApp. No, no, no, you can't be telling me that. Yeah, this is bad for Alex. I don't know why he's chosen this particular. I've seen this sidekick.

I don't know the guy's name. The guy, the guy's interesting. He's also a UFC guy. He's like a Rogan. Oh, okay. And I think that's the reason. That's the hook. Now, this is because Alex is on the wrong side of this.

40% of the Zeds are exactly the audience he can pull in because they don't want the phones. They are, they're going way more conservative. they want to date. I know they want vinyl discs. They want vinyl discs. They want cassette tapes. And this whole contingent that wants cassette tape. Yeah.

And look at Brunetti's kid. They want Bibles. I'm telling you. This is, he's wrong about this. The people who are addicted are Gen X. Yeah, I agree. They're the ones that are completely sucked into this stuff. Man, the women here in front.

Older millennials, too. Older millennials, yeah. Yeah. I mean, and they're watching Candice Owens. They're on the edge of their seat every day at 4 o'clock. Oh, Candace is coming. That Erica Kirk, I'm telling you, she's no good. She's no good.

And the short form videos, they're doom scrolling, their butts off. The only saving grace for them is that GLP1 will help stop their addiction. This is coming. Maybe. This is my new prediction. After erectile dysfunction, GLP1,

OZempic will help you stop your doom scrolling addiction. It already does for cocaine and alcohol, you know. Supposedly. It wouldn't surprise me. So that's coming. Since you mentioned Candice. Uh-oh. I have a super cut that was done by Milkbar TV.

Every comment she's made about getting to the bottom of the Charlie Kirk assassination. Yeah. Over the last two and a half years. How long is this thing? Is it 15 minutes long? It could have been, but I think it did it. What is the length? Oh, 114.

Okay. Yeah, 140. It's not bad. Here we go. Going and we are definitively getting closer to what took place on that day. And we are getting closer. I think we're close. We are definitively getting closer.

We're getting close. We're getting close. We're inching ever closer. We are now, I believe, extremely close to solving this thing. As I get inch closer and closer to discovering the truth, I've got a feeling about that where we're close. We're getting closer to something and that something is pretty big.

I just sense that we're getting close. I sense that we are getting very close. And we are getting closer, getting very close to something. We're getting closer because we are getting close. We are definitely getting closer, very close. We are very close. We are close. We are dangerously close to something.

We are dead close to something. And I think every day we are inching closer. Who killed Charlie Kirk? You know we're getting close. We're inching ever closer. We are inching closer. A little closer to solving the Charlie Kirk murder. I'm getting very close.

And we are getting very close. But I'm getting closer. I'm getting real close. My prayers are with you, Candace. You are close. We are close. And we're getting closer to the truth. We get closer.

We are getting close. She's very close now. Jason Burmiss is the name of the guy. Yeah. The sidekick. He also, I think he was one of the producers of the loose change that, remember that, the docuist, quote unquote, documentary about 9-11. No.

Yeah, loose change to 9-11 in American coup. That's what it was. It came out around 20, 2009, 2010. Yeah, there's something about, And I feel there's a backlash growing against Candace, just the whole group, because it's so annoying. They're just, it's so much infighting. And you've got Megan Kelly fighting with Mark Levine online.

You have a micro penis. It's like, what are we doing? You can't, I should forbid them from calling their shows podcasts. I think I have the right. do that. You do. They should stop doing that. Now, we have two podcasters in our administration, which was, I just have to play this

for the presentation of it. This is the announcement of a federal health care advisory committee. And this is your HHS secretary, RFK Jr. And Dr. Oz, they're like doing a podcast now. The presentation was just, it was all inspiring, really. Hi, I'm Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. You're HHS as a secretary. And I'm Dr. Memadaz, CMS administrator. Hey, Code Bongino.

The health policy seems like everybody's a pessimist. The system's too broken. The interest groups are too powerful. The incentives, the malignate. The whole thing's too complicated. Did Dr. Oz ever offer some products on TV? Was he ever, was he only a doctor doctor? Or did he ever, like, have some gambit to sell? He was, he had a syndicated TV show, and there was some product that he sold that was one of these scamish, you know, wellness things. He does this, that and the other.

A wellness thing. And he got called before Congress and was berated. Well, it's, this is what, the problem here is it sounds like these guys are selling me something that I don't want. This administration rejects that mindset. We take on the broken systems, we challenge the interests, and we fix misaligned incentives to deliver real results. Real results. All bringing together the top talent to take on the toughest challenges head on. And that's why today we are announcing the members of our new health care advisory committee,

which will develop recommendations for how Secretary Kennedy and I can improve Medicare, Medicaid, the Children's Health Insurance Program, and the health insurance marketplaces. Yeah, that's right. I think it was that Dr. Oz green coffee beans. This just sounds like an infomercial. Their insights will help us cut costs. Slash red tape, improve quality of care. Yeah.

Keep program solvent and refocus. Crazy Eddie's prices are insane. Health care on the people it is meant to serve. The patients. I'm so proud of the team that we've assembled. We reviewed more than 400 candidates from all across the country, and we selected just 18. These individuals bring extensive experience from state and federal government, from health system management, from non-profits and health technology innovation.

Even RFK Jr's doing better with his voice. These guys, they're pitching. They're pitching hard. I know, there's something about it that just doesn't feel right. You know, back to my hospital experience. Ah, here we go. I don't think these hospitals, and I would say specifically the cafeteria or the people that's, the dinners they serve you. This is all stuff from the 1940s. You know, the jello and everything's pre-packaged, horrible puddings, a bunch of, everything's,

Espartame, it's loaded with artificial sweeteners. It's like nobody ever heard of Kennedy. And I see no influence or impact whatsoever from Kennedy. Interesting point. Yeah, well, the jello, that's contracts. I mean, those contracts have been around since Bill before. And it's not even jello. It's some other off brand of gelatin dessert that is unedible.

It's a gelatin product. It's gelatin product. I mean, you have no idea how bad the food is. I lost like 10 pounds. It was like, and then they had these dietitians that, the one that was at the hospital. I've got another one that's better. but the one from the hospital, she might as well have been from 1963.

It's old, old ideas, the old pyramids and, you know, lots of carbs. Oh, you got more carbs. So, I mean, did you, what was the typical dinner? Did they have something like a, like a, well, just an example of something that was borderline. It wasn't even borderline edible, actually. It would be a piece of chicken, a chicken thigh cook. with some, you know, phony bologna, some gravy. The chicken thigh was so overcooked that you could literally,

you could pick it up and you could pound a nail with it. It was unbelievable. All right. So did they have a potato product, a starch product? They did have like mashed potatoes, no salt. And so it was like tasteless. And the texture wasn't quite right. And then string beans, string beans?

Yeah, always some string beans. beach, yep. And then a gelatin product of unknown origin and manufacture date. Yeah. Wow. In a prepackaged thing that was obviously came off in assembly line. Yeah. So is Jaynow taking care of you? Is she feeding you? I mean, how, what's this? I can cook now. What's the situation? Are you in bed most of the day? No, God, no. Well, that's the last thing. That's why I had to get out of the hospital because they keep you in bed all day. Now I got to be up. And so back to these meals, it was like you couldn't

eat any of it. And then they examined the percentage of what you ate. And it would go on your file. You can't you eat any more than that? And what you do you say? It sucks? Yeah. And I complained bitterly the whole time. And everybody agreed with me. And it was one nurse and PA, every million of these different titles coming up and down. Well, yeah, it's too bad we can't have food as edible. And one nurse comes in and I'm bitching as usual

about the food and and do other one nurse is nodding and the other one says, I think the food here is great. And I said, what? How could you say that? She says, I used to work at the VA. Oh. You have no idea what bad

food is. You're clueless. It's kind of sad. Have you gotten any, have you received the bills yet? This is what everyone's waiting for. Oh, it's going to be a fortune. But nothing yet, right? We don't, we don't have any. They're late.

Why are they waiting? I have no idea. We'll find out soon enough. So, okay, if you don't mind me just asking, because people want to know, we're all generally concerned for your health, and people have to understand, it is amazing that you're even doing a podcast.

Yeah. This, this quickly after your, I mean, you're no letterman. No, Letterman went on stage. Yes. Well, now, are you going to make the meetup on the 11th? No, probably not. I'm going to try to make it.

Oh, man. You know what you need? You need like Stephen Hawking. Remember when I met Steve and I didn't really meet him, but I had dinner in the same restaurant as Stephen Hawking in Los Angeles and he had these babes? Like super hot. Yeah, he apparently attracted a lot of babes. Super hot nurse babes. We can get you some hot nurse babes.

Just for the meetup, you know, just for the meetup. I think the bill's too high already. At the meat, I have a couple of hot nurses. Yeah, a little elaborate. I did pull that stunt before something similar to that in a competition, a cooking competition in Vegas. I'm pretty sure that we can get a couple of our female producers to dress up as, you know, hot nurses, just for the photo op.

That'd be a good photo. Yeah. You're not into it. Okay. I'm just trying to cheer you up. I'm over the hill for these sorts of, of, uh, publicity stunts. Have you gotten any calls from any of your peers?

Like, I don't know, the Lib Joes. Has anyone called? No, the Lib Joes are clueless. They have no idea. I mean, people I talk to a lot, we all talk to each other. Has Leo Leport called? No, he hasn't even said anything about it. Oh, wow.

And he has to know. Oh, you were on Pod News. I was? Yeah. Yeah, you were on pod news. John C. DeVorek, 18-year co-hosts of the No Agenda podcast, has had a double bypass. We wish him well. Yeah, you're on pod news, man.

You made the pod news. Well, it's about time I got some publicity. Okay. So, but you're a Jane. I'll bring these stories in and out. All right. Well, we just want to know, it's like, do you walk outside? Do you only walk in and?

the house. Well, when I'm outside, because here's the problem, and this is a two-month problem, it's a huge problem. You have limited use of your arms, because if you start doing anything, it hurts. No, it's not the hurts. It, it is the, because as you're cut down the middle of your chest, you have your, that bone there that's kind of stapled back together, they kind of with a hammer and nail. Some gaffer tape. And it takes like two months before it's sealed enough that you can take a chance on doing anything.

And they say, like for example, if you, they say, they tell you this, which makes it tough to walk around. So I, so the hospital gave me this rolling, this kind of rolly walker, which I use when I go outside. Because if you fall down. Yeah. In this two month period. Oh, you're screwed.

it cracks this thing and then the word is if you fall down you don't have anybody try to get you up you call 911 wow who needs that aggravation

so you're very careful about things when you're wandering around and so when you're outside this rolling walker thing which has got four wheels and handlebars and you can walk like a bat out of hell

you use it because you can't take a chance of stumbling or falling because who the hell needs to start the process over no no no and what did they have to re-break you they have to cut you open again i don't know i don't know what they do i have no idea i don't want to know want to find out and does your walker have handbrakes yeah cool and a little seat it's cute it's the cutest thing no it's like you can go you can you feel very confident with it but uh yeah okay no this is not a thing i would recommend anyone who want to go through. But the thing is, Mimi has a friend Richard who

had a quadruple and he called me up the other day. Ex-police guy from L.A. who's a whistleblower made a couple million bucks turning in some mobsters or so I don't know. He had to run up to Washington State. He's in the

witness protection program up in Washington State. No, he's just hiding out. And so he had a quadruple and he told me the whole thing. everything that I'm doing now is exactly what happens. And you come out at the other end when you're done with the process, which is a good four months for the whole thing to blow over.

And it's okay. It's okay. If you feel better than you did before and there's a lot of benefits. And you get these scars you can show off. Yeah, at meetups. Yeah, exactly. Hey, look. No, wait a minute, we already discussed this.

The first rule of group is you don't show your scar. That's what the guy said. I mentioned that story. The guy comes in. Yeah. We all think you should go to group. I didn't do the kicker. Oh, what's the kicker?

He lifts up his shirt and shows me a scar. I'm thinking you should go to one of these just for the experience. Go to group. Yeah, I just might. Yeah. How could it hurt? Well, you might be a couple of guys with great stories. That's what I'm thinking.

Like, hey, here's what the babes like. There's got to be some kind of contingency of women who just love. Oh, can you imagine? You know, there's like groupies, you know, collectors. Yeah, I'm sure there is, to be honest about it. Far out with your scar out, baby. Yeah, yeah, yeah. All right.

A couple more clips here before we take. a break. I do have the Artemis clip. This is not the one you had. This is about the ever-delayed moon launch. For the first time in more than 50 years, NASA is about to launch four astronauts near

the moon. Artemis 2, the more than $55 billion investment, is a 10-day mission. Its goal is to fly astronauts around the moon and back, exploring the feasibility of building a lasting site on the moon for lunar exploration and future missions to

Mars. But this step in science comes with a cost and missed deadlines as those interested in this mission are looking at it with a microscope. Will it be another delayed expensive NASA failure? Or will this mission be one to impress? I mean, NASA does have a history. You can look at a lot of our OIG reports where we are way over budget and substantially behind schedule. NASA's administrator Jared Isaacson admitted to what we all know on Tuesday, but added, at some point you have to, you know, course correct and get things back on track. Back on track after a report from the government accountability office discovered last July that the mission was already close to $7 billion over budget.

We have to do some things differently. I think you're seeing it in some of the public support. You're seeing it in the new authorization bill. And this is what it takes if we're going to get the job done to go to the moon, do so before our rivals. Isaacson, speaking on the mounting pressure of the international space race, a big part of NASA's reputation and what's at stake for this upcoming mission. Right now, he says the agency's priority is developing technology to explore the moon. But this sentiment is also a major focus point for those

watching from the outside. People expressed skepticism on NASA's focus on the moon, as it seems to be distracting from building a replacement international space station, something that's been deemed completely necessary by experts. NASA announced this week that it will invest $20 billion to build a base on the moon, shelving plans to deploy a space station in lunar orbit. We're trying to get back into a rhythm. We're being very transparent. The idea is to make the transition the right way, and we have to put everything out on the table. People will be watching closely to see how things play out on the moon, with Artemis II expected to launch on April 1st. I just love that date. If someone, if we were in charge of stuff, which will never be.

And someone came in and said, oh, hey, hey, bosses, Curry DeVorek, we're going to launch this thing on April 1st. I think both you and I would be like, no, you're not. Right. You're going to choose a different date. Yeah. This is, it would be too stupid if you can't make it. Yeah, it's an embarrassment. Yeah.

Well, we'll have to see. Well, a- This might be a good one for the prediction. betting market. Yeah, how much longer is that thing going to last? Will they let this go on forever? Well, since this is kind of paramutual, they don't lose money. Because it's like the bets come in from one side and then they change the odds.

Coming from the other side, they change the odds. And then they take the money from the one side and give it to the other side and take a piece of the action in the middle. Right. You can go on forever. Right. That's why they're just calling it an exchange. Yeah, it's an exchange. It should be illegal, period.

Paramutual. Why should it be illegal? It's encouraging people to gamble. Well, yeah. This is not healthy for the society. Says the man who can barely talk. Yeah, well, it's beside the point. It's not healthy for society.

It's not healthy for the society. Play this Cash Patel clip. Oh, yeah, this was a good story. A classic. Where is Cash? Here we go. Tonight, cyber warfare unleashed with an Iranian League group hacking FBI director Cash Patel's personal email and posting private messages involving Patel's family and photographs of him at a time before he became director. As this war continues and as the regime is under tremendous pressure, it wouldn't surprise me to hear that the Iranians are potentially trying to take things to an even higher level than what they've done already.

The hack and posting apparently in direct retaliation for the Justice Department taking down several websites associated with the group known as Handala earlier this month. Tonight, Handala bluntly describing why they targeted Patel. Quote, while the FBI proudly seized our domains, we decided to respond to this ridiculous show in a way that will be remembered forever. The group claims to have emails, conversations, documents, and even classified files. David, the FBI says the hack material is historical in nature and involves no government information. And the FBI says the U.S. is offering a $10 million reward for information about the hundala hackers. Yeah, this is a marketing of these hondala hackers. This sounds like, I don't know.

I mean, what is the point? It's an old Gmail, isn't it? I don't know. Yeah, well, I have a clip, and it includes our boy Brennan. 15 pass with the breaking news. Breaking news. Breaking news. Now reporting,

I ramed hackers are claiming they have breached the personal email inbox of FBI director Cash Patel. Breached. Those hackers have published photographs of Patel along with his purported resume and what appears to be personal. I love the pictures. The goofy pictures, goofy stupid selfies. A correspondence dating between 2010 and 2019. But MS. email is not confirmed that.

Any of those documents are legitimate. And DOJ tells our Carol Lenig, they do not know the details of this apparent hack. Joining us now, former CIA director and MS now senior national security and intelligence analyst John Brennan. How concerning is this report? And we want to point out the hack does not cover his time as FBI director, but it does allegedly cover the time he worked in national security and counterterrorism at DOJ. And depending on how far into 2019, possibly his time on the national security. counsel? Well, Alex, the Iranians have very, very sophisticated cyber capabilities, both from the standpoint of collection as well as disruption. And I'm sure that the war ongoing right now with Iran has led to

an increase in their efforts and determination to target a number of individuals with their cyber hacks and capabilities. So again, I'm unsurprised that the Iranians are engaged in such activities, we've had to face it for the past 10 and 15 years in terms of what the Iranians have been able to do. And given that, you know, the FBI director is a high profile target. It's, again, not surprising that the Iranians would do something like this. But again, I have to underscore just how sophisticated the Iranians have become and their ability to do things like this. It was not wrong about that. No, but Brennan's a dud. I mean, is anyone watching Ms. now? Do you know, have you seen any ratings? Does that thing work?

It can't be good. I don't think so either. They're going after, they're trying to buy the Vox podcast network. Ooh, that'll do it. Well, what I think is kind of fun about that is we had Prof G, Scott Galloway, touting with Karen, Karen, with her new name is Karen Swisher, Karen Swisher, Karen Swisher, Karen. with Carers-Wisher. No, no, we're going to sell this show. We're going to, you know,

they were in negotiations, I think, with Vox. How did you sell a show like that? Well, they didn't. That was the whole point. He was like, this is hundreds. This is kind of back a little bit after the Spotify days and Rogan, like, oh, we're going to be 100 millionaires from the show. He was showing charts where he could make a billion dollars on advertising.

And he hired 35 people for the Prof. G experience for all of his podcasts. And now they're getting wrapped up in a sale to, gosh, who was it? Who was it that was going to buy this? Are they part of a network? Oh, you? At work?

Yeah, they're part of the Vox Media Network. Oh, I did not know that. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Let me see. It was, so you're going to get nothing. No, of course not. But my podcast. And how can you even sell it?

We know what a podcast network is worth. It's nothing. So, okay, so Vox Media. Oh, this is it. Yeah. So Vox Media, initially they had said, okay, we're putting it up for sale. And then they said, no, no, no, no, we're not selling anything. But then Versent comes along.

Do you know what, do you remember Versent? Yep. That's the, the, uh, That's the spin-off company. That includes MS Now and CNBC. And they want, the Versant is saying, we want to have at least 40% non-traditional content

within the next two years that they're going to buy. That's a dud. You can't make money off of a podcast network. Spotify put a billion dollars into it and failed. You know who they didn't call us? just for advice, the Curry DeVore Consulting group. Yeah, you never get called for anything.

I never get called for anything. We're outliers with experience and good judgment, but it would. And we're handsome. We're quite hands. Yes. And nobody cares. Nobody cares. Well, those who are last will be first.

The least will get the most. That is what I've always. he's understood. And with that, I want to thank you for your courage, say in the morning to you, the man who put the sea and cut down the middle, say hello to my friend on the other end. He's still alive. Mr. John C. DeMorre. Well, in the morning, Mr. Adam Curry, also in the morning, all ships and sea boots on the ground, feet in the air. Subs in the water and all the dames and nights out there. In the morning to the trolls in the troll room. Oh, there we go. There we go. That's better. 1806 today at the peak of our trollage, which is much better.

for a Sunday. People, people, I think people thought you were dead and like, well, we're going to give up. Who wants to hear Curry? It was,

you know, give a crap. Now what? Give a crap about curry. Oh, he's back. Okay. Well,

we might as well tune in again. Well, you're getting, you're getting a product, which we find to be a quite outstanding product from people who are not swayed by popular opinion, are not captured by an audience who tells them that

you better, you better be criticized and, people more. We've identified this as... We had the two... There's another guy besides the one you're talking about something. You know, you're not critical enough.

He should just be grousing about everything. I mean, you don't think I grouse enough. Okay. No, but you have to be more of an activist. That's what he said. And the other one is... Activism. Yeah, activist.

You got to be more activist, man. Let's push some... You know, people don't realize we... We don't have an agenda in regards to pushing these things. We're not pushing. We don't push anything. But here's what, here's the problem.

And it's, for some reason, always focuses on me, which I don't know, maybe it's the right thing. I can't spell my name. Well, no, but when we analyze something that President Trump does, then we're licking his ass. Because we say, well, I think he's right. Oh, you're not critical. You're all in. How many shekels did you get? You know, so when we're not, because we just don't agree with the narrative.

And there's pushback coming on all these podcasters. People are getting tired of it. They're tired of it. They want, they want just the, just an actual opinion from somebody and not, I brought it. Let me go on your podcast. You know, even, I got to say even Joe Rogan's kind of falling forward now. A little bit.

Yeah. No, I mean, he's... But he doesn't go on everybody's podcast. No, no, no. These, these Mary go around podcasts, you go on mine, I go on yours, you're on his, and then he goes on mine, and then I go on yours, and you know, round, around, around they go, where they stop. Yeah.

Nobody knows. We're not part of any of these clicks. No, we're not... Oh, man, I should have clipped that. Reverend Franklin Graham said, podcasts are a problem. I got to get that clip. He was complaining about the podcast. What was he referring to?

Oh, the podcast that are saying that Israel is bad and the Jews are to blame for everything. Oh, yeah, they do. Yeah. Well, exactly. Yeah. And, you know, now Tucker is he's got a documentary and I've got BB Netanyahu and his wife and they're horrible and they're corrupt, which is probably true. But who cares? Like, okay, maybe, but 15 minutes?

of discussion. Yeah, who cares. It's true. Who cares? Anyway, the trolls are listening at No AgendaStream.com. I will say, and I've actually talked with Dave Jones, my buddy, who is this nicest, calmest guy that call him the Pod Sage. And we do the, like, a board meeting every Friday. We talk about podcasting 2.0 and we have developers on. The audience is like 500 people. It's, it's, it's not meant for any other consumption outside of what we're doing. And out of that group comes, you know, new features like transcripts and chapters and all this stuff that you're seeing now. The big boys are implementing, which is the whole, that was the whole point. Podcasting had stagnated for a decade. We started, it was started up and things are working.

Okay, so great. And even he is getting snark. People just, and it's, and it's, it's older millennials, maybe some Gen X. There's something going on and people feel like they can just lash out and say whatever they want to a podcaster. You haven't noticed this because no one knows where to find you. You're in hiding. But there's something going, there's something in the air where people just want to say, you suck. Yeah, people want to say you suck.

That's pretty much it. You suck. Yeah. So the troll room, there's a lot of that. But actually today has not been too bad. Now they are trolls, so it's to be expected here, obviously. Noagendashream.com. And of course, we have the modern podcast apps.

We're just talking about it. One of the great features they have is live podcasts. When you go live and you're recording live, the podcast app that you use to listen to your podcasts, whenever you feel like it, we'll give you an alert. So if you want to, you can join in live and listen to it. And these things also have pod ping technology.

So within 90 seconds of updating the podcast and releasing it, you'll get notified. We are a value for value podcast. And that means that there's no subscriptions, there's no advertising, there's no paywall. No, we give you everything up front and center, what you see is what you get. And if you get value out of it,

then we would like to hear back from you. And you can do that with your time, your talent, or your treasure. And one of the ways people help us is by, it's production, because everyone who listens to the show is, by definition, a producer. So let me take a look here.

We had episode 1854. Rackout was the title of that. You really had, oh, we used the art, which was kind of cool by Nessworks. and he had a gas pump premium podcast only. Man, it doesn't happen often that you get a lot of email about one topic that you don't expect. Premium versus regular was the one. Did you get emails about this?

I also have a Mayacopa. Oh, well, let me explain first. We were talking about the difference between premium and regular. So high octane, lower. octane and I asked, I said, well, is this a scam? Am I just paying for this stuff when I don't have to? And a lot of people said, oh yeah, you're crazy. Unless you have a high end, high compression automobile, there's no need for it. That was that I'm generalizing, but that's kind of what I got back. And of course, the tip of the day was always fill up your rental car with the lowest octane possible when you

return it. That, that to me was the tip of the day like, ah, obviously, that's what we got to do there. Well, a couple of things. I'll defend the petroleum industry and say, these things are all based on knock engines and your engine. If you want to use lower grade fuel and let your engine knock once in a while, okay, good for you. It's going to hurt and damage the engine over time. But I use premium fuel because I drive a Lexus, old one, 20-year-old, but still. The second thing is, this is my fault. I talked about the low sulfur diesel,

and I kind of conflated it with the stupid blend that we have in California for gasoline, which is special to California. And I said it's going to take over the whole country, blah, blah, blah. No, it's a federal low sulfur diesel, as one of the producers pointed out. The diesel's the diesel everywhere, and it's really expensive. So that can be changed at a federal level. how come President Trump doesn't change this? What's you going to do?

Just tell them to stop the, let the sulfur free. No, I think they've, you know, they've gotten used to this blend. It's better. You do the high sulfur diesels make a mess. It's probably a better product. Well, we got the farm diesel here, all the good old boys. They put that farm diesel in their pickup trucks and they roll coal along the road. You can always tell.

You got farm diesel. So thanks to Nessworks for bringing us that artwork. There were a couple other things that we looked at. I think we can kind of move past the hospital art. I think John is no longer in the hospital. You kind of liked Dan OBGYN4's slot machine. Yeah, I did. I think it's an evergreen.

I might use it. possible evergreen. Scaramanga's homemade missile on the surfboard was kind of cute. A lot of ship stuff. So I think Nestworks kind of nailed it. Premium podcast only. It was good. You actually liked it a lot because you felt that it was not, you know, a big AI effort. Well, Nestworks is not necessarily an AI effort type of guy.

So, yeah, I did like that. I thought that was good. So we thank you for your courage, Nestworks. And we thank everybody who participates at no agendaartgenerator.com. So it is time, talent, and treasure. Again, the idea is you get value out of the show. You like the analysis. You thought it was worthwhile.

You'd like it to continue. You've got one man on his deathbed. He's dialing in from his deathbed. That might be valuable to you to have your show. All you have to do is send that value back to us. And we can't determine what that is. That's up to you. you. We don't know what value, what is valuable to you. So you go to no agenda donations.com and you

send us some value. Now, we're going to thank everybody, $50 and above in one segment. And we start with our executive and associate executive producers. These are people who get an extra benefit because they are able to support us with $200 or more. And that means not only do you read your note guaranteed, but we also give you an associate executive producer credit, which is good anywhere Hollywood credits are recognized, and it's a real one because you did exactly what executive and associate executive producers do, which is help finance the product. $300 or above, and it's the same deal only then you become an executive producer. And both of these can be used at IMDB.com.

Are we going to do this knight of the heart order? What is the deal there? Yeah, I got Paul Couture's working on the art for a pin, a special pin that you put on your lapel. It's going to be, yeah, it's going to be the Red Knight. And we're going to roll it out of my birthday. It's the order of the Red Knight? No, you are a Red Night.

It's the Order of the Heart or the Red Heart. Okay. And wait a minute, your birthday is when? Isn't that coming up soon? Like next week? Yeah, like the 5th. The 5th of April. Oh, my gosh.

Oh, my gosh. Oh, my gosh, he said. I don't know what happened there. Well, coming in as... Sorry about that. coming in as our top executive producer for today, saving the entire show. Yes. Yes, it was a very poor showing today, except for a couple of checks that came in.

Well, Dame Catherine, she is the crypto granny of Bangkok, came in with a in Bitcoin, a whopping $5,000. And she says, John, thank you for not dying. We need you. I think you've got to pull this gambit more often. What can you do next? I don't think I believe it's not worth of trouble. Kidney stones. We have to do something.

Adam, you're a rock. You kept your head about you. Hold on. Let me expand this. And soldiered on. Bravo. Mimi, thank you for filling in during John's medical adventure. Hope this helps with the medical bills.

It will. I'm grateful to be a hodler since the early day. I must give thanks to Max Kaiser to the moon! And she ends up by saying, being rich is having enough to share with others. She is Dame Catherine, the crypto granny of Bangkok,

and we thank you so much, named Catherine. Whatever happened to Max Kaiser? They're all living in El Salvador now. Oh, really? You know who else is moving to El Salvador? Who? Texas Slim.

He is now, he is officially by presidential appointment in charge of all beef agriculture. culture of El Salvador. Wow. I had an El Salvadorian that I met with the, in the hospital. He was just one of the guys who, they called Transport. They dragged you around and you need to keep you in your bed and they roll you all over

the place. And I had a long chat with him. He says, El Salvador has become the greatest place ever when he was a kid. Yeah. That you couldn't go outside. They'd shoot you. Yeah. You got roused or killed.

I know. Well, that's the, that's Buckely. And he says that the guy, this president, the guy's running it, he doesn't need any money. He's loaded. And, you know, there's no way of going corrupt. That's Buckely. He says it's a terrific place. Yeah.

And you know what they did? They made Bitcoin the money of the country. Currency. Yeah, it's the currency. And a lot of people have moved there. Max and Stacey are there. I'm pretty much full time now. I think it's only, what, two and a half hour flight from Texas?

I'm going to go visit. When Slim is there, oh, yeah. So he's in charge. He's going to, I think he has a press conference with the president, Buckely, on the 14th of April. And, yeah, he's, so he's going to do everything from the regenerative farming to the processing. And he has beef.com. Somehow he got beef.com. Little old Texas Slim, man.

He's doing good. I'm so happy for him. He says, Adam, I'm going to be to the Jimmy Dean of Beef. And I don't doubt him. So that's what's going on in El Salvador. Well, thanks to name, Catherine. Matthew Lambs up. He's in Johnson City, Tennessee.

$500. This, I believe, is just a check that showed up in an envelope with no, no, no, nothing. It made no sense. But I'm sure if he wants to communicate, he will. But he'll get a double up karma in the meantime. You've got. Karma. All right.

Then we have a valuable account indeed. This is a great name. From Plains, Pennsylvania. $500 with a handwritten note looks like some paper from a high school notebook. Dear John Adam plus Mimi, my cousin, also named John, also had a heart attack this week. Sadly, he passed away, leaving behind his wife, children. and one grandchild. He was a great guy and will be missed.

Please count your blessings, John. Get way, get well, stay healthy. And four more years. Sincerely, a valuable accountant, indeed. Not account, accountant, indeed. And he breaks it down. 333.33, value for value. A boob donation for Mimi.

She's a lovely woman. And a 80 boob for John, a reason to live. And $6.51 for J.C. covering D.H. Unplugged. He's great. Plus prayers for Adam and Pastor Jimmy. A wonderful show they do. There are three types of accountants, the kind that you can count on, and the kind that can't, that can't. Okay. Get it? Yeah, I get it. The kind that can count and the kind that can't. There you go. Well, this is a valuable accountant, indeed. And we thank you very much for your support of the show.

No, the joke was there's three types. I know, but there's no third. didn't you get it. Yeah. Okay, Ron Camacho, Comcho. Ron Comcho? Tomcho. Sugar Island, Texas, 33333. Foremost, I want to thank John, or thank you, John, for not dying. You're welcome. I started listening in March, 26, recent listener, huh? First time donor, I need a deduishing. You've been deduced. My Spicewood, Texas daughter turned me on to you guys. Thank you for your, in

And in the words of Sam Houston, Texas will again lift its head and stand among the nations. It ought to do so for no country upon the globe can compare with it in natural advantages. God bless you, the No Agenda Show, and God bless Texas. Amen. That's right. One of those guys. Yeah. Well, there's a lot of them here, and I'm one of them. Colleen Westerhouse in Churibusco, Indiana. I think it's Churibusco. Someone gave me crap.

My sister-in-law gave me crap the other day. Because I said, Portage, Indiana. She called me up and says, it's portage. We're Midwesterners. Stop with the French stuff. So I don't know if you pronounce this Churibusco or Churibusco, but it's in Indiana. Rovedoc. 2.22. No note that I could find from Colleen, so we'll give here a double-up karma.

You've got. Karma. Christopher Graves in Somerset, California. Oh, we know Christopher. Christopher. 203.29. This is a note, so thank you to Eli the coffee guy when Eli reached out and asked if Little Johns could make chocolate with coffee.

By the way, we got some of these things. You got some already? I haven't received any. Well, I think so because Jay is talking about you eat one and you go to the moon. I got to get to the P.O. box. Make chocolate with coffee. I jumped at the chance to co-brand with another like-minded business owner. Getting the chance to co-lab, co-lab with two of my favorite things, chocolate and coffee, and then promote it to the best podcast in the universe is an honor.

Yes. Thank you, Eli, for making me a better businessman and a better candy maker. speaker. Connection is protection. Tryer limited edition chocolate bars at littlejohn's coffee.com or gigawatt coffee roasters.com. 20329. Yeah, it's littlejons candies.com. What did I say? You said Little John's coffee. That's what a colob will do to you. No, that's from the drugs. What drugs are you on? Nothing. Nothing for pain? No, I don't have any pain. I have aches. and I have like sore back and neck and things like that. But I don't, I never, and I asked about this, by the way,

not to go on about these ailments. Yeah. But because they come and everyone come in, well, we're going to do this and that. And then somebody else comes here, and everybody does this and that? And then I always say, do you have any pain? Oh, and I said, no.

The little chart with where on this chart is your pain level at? And I said, no, you got pain from zero to 10. I don't have any pain. It's got no pain. This went on and on and on. And so somebody comes in once, and I said, okay, I don't have any pain. But why are they, what, you know, I can't seem to make it clear. And so what is the pain that people have?

Ah. Because after, you know, you have to, well, you wonder what the hell's this horrible pain because they keep asking. And I guess, one of the doctors described this. It feels like you're being stabbed. Wow. I'm glad I don't have that. Well, at least there's one thing I avoided.

You're doing so well over two hours and your energy went up. It's amazing. Yeah, well. Hey, we've got Gerth Lunkhar in Breda in the Netherlands. $200.88. That's a give John a reason to live donation. And he has a note with his associate executive producer'ship. John and Adam.

But she is so good. She just keeps on. Had she ever done a podcast? She doesn't enunciate. Oh. I just remember her when she was 14 or 15. That's the last time I saw her. Now she's all grown up and married and doing stuff.

She's cool. Everybody loves Jay. Yes. So we can do the rest of these because this is the shortest list we've ever had. Yeah, I'm going to go right through it. I'll do them all. Never. Wait, let me stop you.

Ever. This is the shortest list of donations we've ever had a total count with the crypto granny and all the rest thrown in. of 19 people. Now, is it that bad? Part of this is the newsletter has to be

redeveloped because it's just not getting to anybody. You mean they're not actually receiving it or it doesn't have impact? They're not receiving it. They're not receiving it. Oh, what changed besides you almost dying? No, this changed about

six to nine months ago and I noticed it then. And I was slow to act. Now I'm slower, so it's going to be a nightmare to get this thing back on track. Void Zero is ready to help. I know. I want to talk to him. Okay.

Lane Lamuro, $55 from the middle of Mesopotamia. rockets, drones and missiles. Oh my. Proving not all Americans have gone bonkers from a university in Baghdad.

Also a short list on the birthdays, but they are here. Evan Mackey celebrates a birthday. And let me see, layaway night sir, exiled maniac. I don't have any dates for these guys, but all just take it as it's their birthday. So happy birthday from everybody here at the best podcast in the universe.

It's your birthday, yeah. Title changes. Turn and face the slate. That's changes. Don't want to be a douche. Well, I'm very sorry, Sir Nubbin. I'm not sure exactly what went wrong, but there was no malice intended. So today you receive your long overdue and deserved title change.

You now become a baron. and we thank you for your courage and for your support of the best podcast in the universe. So we do have one night. It is a layaway night, and I believe I have a note here. This is from A. Jackson Pollock, and he will become Sir Exiled Maniac. He says, John Adam Marches donation of 30. This is a long time layaway. 33, 33 should leave me a penny short of knighthood.

So if you can spare a penny, do I have my pennies? ever since I went to Linux, I think I lost my pennies. Hmm. You know, the Linux machine sucked up the pennies. Do I have it? Nope, I'm going to have to look for it. I owe you. Yeah, it'll be, I owe you is right.

There you go. I think the ROI will be worth it. I've also sent an additional 3333 this month in order to sponsor a douchebag, save a podcaster. I hope this concept catches on. J.C.D.'s life and the show may depend on it. Please, night meets are exiled maniac kennelmaster of the Dutch Shepherds and Belgian Malinois. Malinois.

You know who has Malinuas? Laura Logan. She got five of them. I had one. Yeah, but these are the ones that bit Luke coffee and he had to get plastic surgery on his face. No, that's not good. No, she has five of them, and they get out all the time, and they're on the street roaming around. They are killers.

I had one that was gentle. But this dog, nothing could contain him. He would get escape. He was an escape artist. And one time we dropped him off at a kennel. Then we said, this dog will escape. And don't worry about it. We got to secure his facilities.

And so then we see the guy the next time. And he says, so I locked the dog up. And I'm walking down the hall and I hear something clicking behind me. The dog is. walking right behind me. They are escape artists. Let me say that was actually pretty funny. Let me save that one.

So I need to read some of this note. I don't know if you saw, if you saw this note, but this is a hilarious note. Okay, so I've been having this recurring dream. And I'm starting to think it may have something to do with the best podcast in the universe.

It goes something like this. Since the pandemic, I've been down on my luck and financially strapped. So he started directing gay porn movies out of my house, unbeknownst to my wife while she's at work. I'm working with my associate executive producer, Dana Brunetti, and our biggest star, Eli, the coffee guy. We are discussing the next scene which involves Little John's candied beads

and a gigawatt coffee animal, followed up with good old-fashioned La Jolla salt rub and tug. Suddenly, the front door flies open and my wife, Linda Lou, Duchess of Jobs and writer-winning resumes, unexpectedly comes home and cries out in horror. Mr. Timothy, what in the world? What have you been shopping at bad idea supply again? Then she starts yacking at me something about if I don't change my wicked ways, find Jesus and go to ImageMakersink.com. That's ImageMakers Inc. with a K.

She's always repeating herself. And get myself a winning resume that gets results and there's no doubt in her mind that I would end up working at Martel hardware for the rest of my life. About this time, an alarm clock goes off. And from the radio, I hear this spooky voice of a washed-up VJ and exclaiming in the morning, followed by his geriatric handler's sidekick,

bitching and moaning for three hours about low donations. What can all of this madness mean? When will this sigh up end? Four more years is what my conspiracy therapist keeps telling me, but he says it may end a whole lot sooner unless all the douchebags in the universe donate at least once, no matter the amount, although 3333 is the magic number. Ball is in your core, douchebags.

Stay safe and donate. that's a Jackson Pollock Plus no agenda is a Picasso And that means that we need to Anight this guy So if you can grab that little tiny Heartcautious for that's beautiful So Jason

And they're valuable protection that everyone should have, especially in and around the kitchen, if you have gas appliances. Now, are these just simple ones that beep or make a noise? Or can you get them that connect to an app? So your app will alert you? No, but there's plenty of that do and you can look for those. In planes, we have a very cheap one, which is a little disc, and the disc changes color.

And then you know that there's a lot of carbon monoxide. Yeah, I'd rather have something beeping at me. Yeah. And, excuse me, I've had them go off like false positive. And here's what the pilots do. How do you feel? You feel funny? No, I feel good.
