No Agenda - 1878 - "Dream Build Loop"

Starting point is 00:00:00 You know, this guy is a crank. Adam Curry, John C. DeVorek. It's Thursday, June 18, 2026. This is your award-winning Gibbon Nation Media Assassination Episode 1878. This is no agenda. We're all raving about ranch. And broadcasting live from the heart of the Texas Hill Country here in FEMA region number six in the morning, everybody. I'm Adam Curry.

Starting point is 00:00:24 Yeah, and from a refinery row where we're all concerned about the big report of the rapist, in the UK. I'm John C. DeVorek. It's Crackbott and Buzzkill. In the morning. The rapist from the UK. I don't even want to know. Are they here? You see the report? No.

Starting point is 00:00:43 Depends. I mean, there's a lot of reports in the world. What report? It's a big 250-page report on the grooming gangs and the 250,000 girls raped. Did we need a report? Apparently the Brits did.

Starting point is 00:01:00 We really need a report. Oh, by the way, quad screen, Obama, wall to wall, Obama opening up the presidential center. It's not a library, apparently. It's a center. It's good to see him back. You're talking about the tower. Yeah, the tower.

Starting point is 00:01:20 So I just want to start with something really nice. Ooh. Ooh. I spent a couple hours, which is, as we discussed, before we started the show is two. A couple hours, just enjoying all of the videos on X and subsequently on YouTube. That's all I really have. I don't have Instagram or anything else.

Starting point is 00:01:47 Of tourists, mainly Europeans, but some Australians and Japanese, who have discovered that America is awesome. Have you seen any of these? I've seen all of them. You don't think they're staged? No. No. You don't think they were put together by the FIFA people to get more people to come over to these soccer matches?

Starting point is 00:02:12 Oh, yeah. Okay, sure. No. I'm just asking it if you don't think that. I said no. And then you ask the question again. So the answer is no. Well, no, I re-asked it in a different manner.

Starting point is 00:02:22 Hey, these stadiums of 70,000 people are full. It's not like people aren't going to the games. But, you know, no. How is this about FIFA? It's people enjoying our hospitality, how friendly people are, that people say hello. They're loving, they cannot believe that the school buses in America are actually yellow school buses. It's like the way I see it, all of Europe, of course, we've had the same programming, have been brainwashed into thinking all we are is just one big bunch of racist, crazy people who are fat.

Starting point is 00:02:58 shooting at each other. Fat and lazy, shooting at each other with a dictator running the whole show. And now, of course, you know, people are like, wow, we really love your fast food or your food in general. Chicken fried steak, waffles, pancakes. I mean, they have pancakes, but, you know, pancakes with chicken, waffles with chicken. You know, people only know us from the move. if you've never been to America and you only see it America through the lens of the movies and television shows and Grand Theft Auto, you know, I think people are amazed that on one hand

Starting point is 00:03:39 they feel like they're living in the movie because, yeah, the houses really look like that. Big obsession with our fire hydrants. This is fascinating. People just loving the fire hydrants. Okay. Well, I'm glad you're getting a kick out of it. Well, I like the guys roaming around at midnight saying, hey, I'm not getting mugged. Well, that's the South African guy. Yeah. And it wasn't even at midnight. It was during the day.

Starting point is 00:04:09 He's like, look, women are walking through the park. No, there was a guy at midnight roaming around. Same guy. Oh, okay. And a truck stop. And, of course, you know, this is just different if you go to New York City or you're in downtown Los Angeles. How about Oakland? Take them down to the International Boulevard. Well, I think this is changed attitudes. I think it's changed American attitudes. People like, yeah, you know, we kind of take it for granted that we have Costco and Walmart and Buckees, but also we have small diners and we have dive bars and ice houses and cowboy ranches.

Starting point is 00:04:46 I think the people who came to Texas who went, you know, really outside of even people who went to Fort Worth, which is touristy. But went a little bit further. No, people are exploring and they're really loving our country. And I like it. And they're saying, hey, you guys are patriotic. You got flags everywhere. We're not even allowed to put up flags in our country. You've got prayer on the bottom of your cups.

Starting point is 00:05:12 No, I'm not so cynical as you. I think it's great. I've been to Sweden. Every other house has got a flag 24-7 all the day of the year. They're flag-nuts. I was talking about the UK specifically. Oh, well, the UK. Well, they can't put a flight because it's still legal.

Starting point is 00:05:30 It's hate speech. Exactly. Exactly. You got people going to gun ranges, holding a gun for the first time in their life. And like, well, that wasn't that's, you know, they're shaking. Like, I'm going to shoot this gun. I'm going to shoot this gun. And then after they shot the gun, like, oh, I want to shoot that some more.

Starting point is 00:05:48 So, I don't know. You know, they love our cars. They love the, the Dodge. charger. They love our trucks. And the amount of people who are so surprised that the yellow school buses are actually yellow school buses, they're just, they're joyous. It's just, I find it interesting, fascinating, and also endearing, and I'm proud to be an American. And I'm happy that people are here. There was no setup for this. FIFA did no marketing. You know why? No one did any marketing because it was Trump's deal. So the media didn't talk about it. You know, it's Trump

Starting point is 00:06:24 FIFA. I'm not talking about it. You know any reports about it. There's no FIFA fever. It turns out people love it. People love coming here. They always have. It's been a tourist attraction forever. Yeah, but I just don't find it to be

Starting point is 00:06:41 it's something fishy about it. I'm sorry. I'm glad you enjoy it. I'm glad you like it. I'm glad you're happy. Nobody puts flags up around here. Well, no. You're in California. What do you expect? Yeah. I don't hear anybody.

Starting point is 00:06:57 That's why you're so grouchy about it. You live in possibly the worst state, now the worst area in the country, where everyone's just grouchy and sour and upset and not happy. You know, you're an exception, but it's got to, it's got to wear down on you. Not really. Okay.

Starting point is 00:07:21 I find it relaxing. Well, you're a different. I don't think you're the stereotypical American, nor do you live in a stereotypical American place. You just don't. Anyway. So. Well, on the topic of the,

Starting point is 00:07:39 since we're making these comparisons, I do want to play this crazy clip. I thought, which are, you've gone from screwball to crazy. Okay. Duke, or Duke Foley sent over.

Starting point is 00:07:51 I said, I should play that clip. This is the UK and, this is the, The bonus clip. UK and GDP rank. We are poorer than every single US state. When voters were asked to guess whether the UK would rank in terms of GDP per capita,

Starting point is 00:08:08 if it were a US state, gave on average the response of seven. The actual answer is 51st. Many people in Britain today do not fully grasp how far we have been fading. People, of course, have a general sense that our economy has not been growing strongly enough for some time. But too many tend to think, We are still much richer than most of our peers. And the fact is we are not. We are poorer than every single U.S. state.

Starting point is 00:08:35 Yeah, that's why people are coming here. You guys are rich. Everything's big. Well, we always have been. But the interesting thing is that I looked it up. Ah, come on. So I looked it up. I think it's probably true.

Starting point is 00:08:49 And in fact, the per capita GDP of the UK is $52,000. The worst state in the United States for per capita GDP is Mississippi at 55,000. Wow. And there's a number of states with 100, 110, 118, 108, I think it's California is 108. Well, you have 2% that make up for the rest. So yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Starting point is 00:09:19 It's still the fact is the UK's per capita. but the GDP is terrible compared to us. Yes. And they have no money. They're broke. That's why the defense secretary, when I quit, we can't defend this country. I'm not going to take that on me. I'm out of here.

Starting point is 00:09:39 Yeah, he took somebody with him too. I forgot who. Okay. So while we're on the UK, man, on the media, NPR, these people are, they are sick, sick and crazy. So we've had these, we haven't. There's been the riots in Ireland. And of course it's coming in Northern England and everything.

Starting point is 00:10:04 It's all going to happen. There's, there's mutiny. There's civil riots. And on the media, on the media, decides to not discuss at all why people are rioting, but blame it all on Elon Musk. This is on the media. I'm Brooke Gladstone. And I'm Michael Lohenger.

Starting point is 00:10:24 This week. Elon Musk took his company SpaceX public in an IPO billed as the largest in history. SpaceX is on track to become the most valuable company ever to go public and make its founder Elon Musk the first trillionaire. You'd think he'd have his hands full with that, but apparently Musk has also had time to write many, many, many, many, many, racist posts. Many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many. on X, some of which helped spark violent riots in the UK over the last couple of weeks. What? The events this week began on Monday when a Sudanese man was arrested and charged with attempted murder for stabbing a white man in Northern Ireland.

Starting point is 00:11:08 The attack comes in escalating tension. This guy tried to chop the guy's head off and then gouged out his eyes. Oh yeah. No, you're wrong, man. And this is not the problem. Tested and charged with attempted murder for stabbing a white man in Northern Ireland. The attack comes amid escalating tension over immigration across Europe. A video of the gruesome incident immediately appeared on social media.

Starting point is 00:11:36 And then, Elon Musk writing on X this week, only by protesting repeatedly and loudly will there be any change. Okay, so the implication here from our friends at NPR is that, oh, the video was on social media. But it wasn't until Elon Musk started tweeting about it that everything kicked off. So Tommy, Tommy Robinson, you know who Tommy Robinson is. Of course. What would you call him if you had, you know, like, he is a, Tommy Robinson is a fill in the blank. He's a natural born troublemaker who is a patriot, a UK patriot. Spurred in part by posts from a notorious conspiracy theorist.

Starting point is 00:12:19 Tommy Robinson is the most. prominent far right activist in the UK. So on the media calls him a conspiracy theories because everything he's saying is made up, you see. There's no immigration problem. There's no rape going on. Nothing like that. The guy's just filled with conspiracy theories. David Gilbert is a reporter at Wired covering disinformation and online extremism.

Starting point is 00:12:41 When did Wired cover disinformation and online extremism? Now Wired is a big disinformation. I mean, I'm actually ashamed that I was on the cover of Wired magazine with my face on an iPod now. Back when it was something cool, it was like being on the cover, you know, if you were in fashion on the cover, Vanity Fair.

Starting point is 00:13:00 I saw your face on the cover of wire. How come is that on the wall? It is. It's in the garage. That's where I hang on my stuff now. He says things really, you had a wall. Yeah, in the garage.

Starting point is 00:13:14 When did you go to the garage? I thought I was in the house. No, when we, no, when we moved to this house five years ago, I said, I'm tired of all this crap in the house. And I don't need these high school trophies. So I got rid of the trophies. And then moved.

Starting point is 00:13:29 No, I've always kept the trophies. And we've talked about this. That I, well, you never talked about it. I always knew about the wall, but I never knew that you moved it to the garage or a closet. Yeah. And it's much more like, you know, where guys hang out in the garage, they got Ford signs on the wall, Valvaline, R.C. Cola. Yeah, that's, so I have a wall there.

Starting point is 00:13:52 I'll take a picture of it. I'll post it. Extremism. He says things really heated up after Elon Musk reposted one of Robinson's videos. He has a huge amount of followers online, but what he's really expert at is inciting anger, stoking tensions,

Starting point is 00:14:10 and making it seem as if the UK is under attack from minorities. Well, minorities. Notice how they move the goalposts on everything. It's under attack? No, it's under attack from images. who have got on a boat, came in, and your country said, oh, poor immigrants,

Starting point is 00:14:27 well, let him stay here, give him some money, give my hotel room. So here is the 24-hour roadmap from Musk to Mayhem. Give me the roadmap of how we went from a bystander video to violence in the streets of...

Starting point is 00:14:43 A bystander video! Can you believe this? They're calling that quasi-beheading eye gouging, throat stabbing, a bystander video. What is wrong with these people? Huh. That's just, I'm flummoxed. Give me the roadmap of how we went from a bystander video

Starting point is 00:15:05 to violence in the streets of Belfast in just 24 hours. As you said, it was 10.30 at night in Belfast, someone videoed it, we don't know who they posted it online. Exactly one hour later, Tommy Robinson posted the video. That video got six million views. A few hours later, Elon Musk responded to Tommy Robinson and then spent the next 24 hours posting consistently about this case. Many major US accounts on X started amplifying the video. When people woke up in the UK on Tuesday morning after the incident,

Starting point is 00:15:39 by 7 a.m., people were posting about having protests in Belfast and other cities in Northern Ireland. Far right groups on Facebook started organizing. Then Elon Musk posted about the protest and said that this is enough. have to take a stance. People have to push back against this. And by 7 p.m. that evening, there were masked men on the street who were kicking indoors of migrants, setting fire to vehicles, terrorizing migrant communities across Belfast. I find this to be just amazing. They have moved from an actual problem that they won't report on to blaming it on Elon Musk and his posts. I don't know. It's just like, this is, this is very pathetic.

Starting point is 00:16:26 And they continue. John Musk wrote, murderous migrants beheading innocent people in their hometown is what's making people angry, not social media. He reposted messages claiming that British Prime Minister, Kier Starmor, quote, hates white people. This is just like white supremacist great replacement theory, right? It has been repackaged recently under a term called remigration.

Starting point is 00:16:51 which is something that has been bubbling up in Europe for a few years and has been embraced by the Trump administration recently. So it's this idea that white people are under attack and so therefore we need to kick everyone else out that doesn't look like us. So they pull it to racism continuously. So yes, it's a replacement theory, which is a cover for the actual document that exists,

Starting point is 00:17:19 which is replacement migration. United Nations document. I read the documents, man. We've talked about it. You can find it on Binget.io. It was a real plan and they're executing that plan has been going on for a quarter century. What are these people imagining would happen? Imagining. They have a 30-year plan that would happen in three phases. The first phase would see the worst, the worst, what we're seeing in the U.S. at the moment where they're trying to deport people who are threat to society of criminal records and are there illegally. The second phase would see people who are in the country legally but are not citizens and who have not assimilated and

Starting point is 00:17:57 are not white and they should be sent back to their countries as well. But what the third phase shows is what these people really want. They would look at citizens who do not assimilate to the Western cultures, traditions and religions. For example, if they are still practicing religions other than Christianity, if they're cooking foods that are not traditional foods in Germany or France or the UK or America. Like Indian food? Oh, bullshit. We're going to get rid of that.

Starting point is 00:18:25 You've been to Britain. They eat Indian food like it's going out of style. In fact, takeout in the UK refers to Indian food, not Chinese like it does here. Yeah, exactly. Now, this is crazy. Then they would be kicked out. And who gets to decide what assimilation looks like?

Starting point is 00:18:46 When I asked Martin Selner, who was called the godfather of remigration, at the conference in Portugal. Wait, get a time code. You like that one? I have to hear that again. Okay. You have a time code.

Starting point is 00:19:01 You got a time code. Consider it done. Who exactly decides this? He couldn't really give me an answer. Let me go back to what actually started it. And by the way, as you're doing this, as you're doing this, I'm scrolling through the Elon Musk timeline. Very good. This bull crap.

Starting point is 00:19:18 It's mostly Elon, yeah, he mentions it now and again, but he, He's yacking about SpaceX and Grock 90% of the time. He's promoting stuff. Yeah, exactly. He's got other things to do. To decide what assimilation looks like. When I asked Martin Selner, who was called the godfather of remigration at the conference in Portugal, who exactly decides this, he couldn't really give me an answer.

Starting point is 00:19:44 Ultimately, it comes up to whoever's in power will decide. Say what? Elon Musk. Elon will decide. He's in charge of it all. Apparently. Well, she'll bring me to a clip now that you mention it. Okay.

Starting point is 00:19:58 From pivot. Oh, no. From pivot. So, unfortunately, you can't, if you visualize, you can see a little better, but I didn't realize on the pivot show. This is a, your buddies yakking about Elon. And, and, and Kara is just. In the, as, as, what's his name, Yaxon, she mumbles.

Starting point is 00:20:27 Oh, yeah. Oh, he's terrible. She just keeps mumbling little bitty ditties under her breath the whole time. Yeah, she's, she's, she's, she's. Something's wrong with her. Let's listen. Let's be clear. Elon Musk, in my view, can probably decide who the next president is.

Starting point is 00:20:46 Yeah, that's correct. He spent $250 million. When will these people. get over this idea that money wins elections. They were the same people who were like, Elon spent $100 million in Wisconsin and failed. He failed. And now they're like,

Starting point is 00:21:08 he can determine the next president. Let's be clear. Elon Musk, in my view, can probably decide who the next president is. Yeah, that's correct. He spent $250 million. and had influence on the election. Maybe he didn't decide it. This guy spends more money than APEC, a lot more money than APEC.

Starting point is 00:21:31 Why don't we run him out of the country? But he had influence on it. What happens if he decides to put two and a half percent of his net worth or $25 billion or a hundred times what he spent? Well, he may just lose all that money. I think you would be happy. CNN will be happy. All the cable news would be happy if he's going to spend that kind of money.

Starting point is 00:21:56 People will take it with open arms. Bring your money, Elon. These people are nuts. Hey, you know, remigration. Send Kara Swisher back to wherever she came from. And Professor Scott, too. This poor man. He actually.

Starting point is 00:22:17 He's so self-absorsela. It actually is kind of amusing to watch his body language. Oh, what do you mean? Well, he's just, you can see, you can see that he's full of himself. I mean, he's very overconfident. He's actually rich. He has millions of dollars. He's rich.

Starting point is 00:22:37 He's loaded. The guy's loaded. Exactly. Anyway, I want to go back to the UK to Keir Starmer because now we have this problem. We have this, you know, it's Elon Musk. it's it's X, it's social media. So I'm surprised that they haven't put to slam the door on social media. Probably shuttered all the social media companies, except Blue Sky, of course, you wouldn't want to shut them down.

Starting point is 00:23:02 Well, that's, they've now become a European initiative. But you're close because let's look at the sequence of things that happened. Everyone gets a digital ID and that's now a thing. You know, it hasn't completely rolled out now, but everyone has to get a digital ID. It was initially, oh, you can't work without a digital ID. They rolled that back a little bit. But the digital ID is in essence being rolled out in the UK. So we would use the digital ID to make sure that you are 16 years or older in order to use social media.

Starting point is 00:23:39 But that also means that we know who you are. We got your account. we've tied it to your digital ID and all rolls out under the guise of protecting the children because today is a big moment for our country this is a big step real change for our children

Starting point is 00:24:00 and our future because today I can announce that the government will ban access to social media for all children under the age of 16 and this is not something I do lightly and I will not present it as cost-free as if social media has brought no benefits to young people

Starting point is 00:24:29 because clearly that is wrong but government is always about choices and it's clear to me that a full ban is the right choice and I come to it as a parent myself I know exactly the fears that we all feel when we're thinking about this issue. All I've ever wanted for my own children, hand on heart, is for them to be happy and for them to be safe.

Starting point is 00:24:56 And I think that's what any parent wants. But I ask the question now, do we truly believe that social media creates a happy environment for our children? Do we truly believe that it's a place where they can feel safe? Safe. I don't think I even need to answer those questions, do I? Oh, okay. don't answer the question that.

Starting point is 00:25:17 So I think that's, this is under the guise of, think of the children. I think they've also banned VPNs. Oh, I don't know about that. I only know about this. Yeah, yeah, yeah. All right.

Starting point is 00:25:33 They don't want people getting on these things. We need, we need to talk about the deal, man. We need to talk about the deal. The MOU, the deal, the big deal, the big thing that's happening. Or are you switching gears already? Well, I'm, you finish the UK stuff.

Starting point is 00:25:44 Well, no, I have UK, what more is it to say? It sucks and everyone who's from there who's here loves it here. That is the story. Of course they do. That's the story right there. It's prettier. Well, yeah, actually, how about this? I can ease us into it with a transition clip.

Starting point is 00:26:07 Whatever the pressure on me and others, whatever the noise, I'm going to act in the British national interest in all the decisions that I make. And that's why I've been absolutely clear that this is not our war, but we're not going to get dragged into it. UK Prime Minister Kirstarmer now singing a different tune telling President Trump in a phone call yesterday he's, quote, ready to support a U.S. Iran peace deal. Meanwhile, the Prime Minister receiving letters of resignation from both his Defense Secretary and Armed Forces Minister over concerns the nation.

Starting point is 00:26:42 isn't properly defending itself. Former Trump State Department senior advisor, Christian Witten joins us now. Great to see you, Christian. So explain to us what is this about face from Kier Starrmer all about? Well, Starmor's in crisis. He has been for some time. He won a resounding mandate two years ago.

Starting point is 00:27:03 It's a five-year mandate, but he's about to be ousted by his own party. He's an incredibly unpopular politician. Labor Party is now in third place, before Reform UK, which is sort of a maga-like party that came out of Brexit in the UK and the traditional Tories. One of his buddies in cabinet just bailed out. He's going to lose a by-election this week in which the person likely to be elected wants to challenge him for the premiership. So amid this flailing, Starmor is looking for some sort of victory. Not sure what's President

Starting point is 00:27:33 Trump actually wants because Starmor is weak. He was not just failing to support the United States, this fundamentally important ally to Britain, but actually actively campaigned against Trump's decision. Yeah. Okay. Perfect segue. I'm giving you a 10 on that. Thank you.

Starting point is 00:27:52 I should have played it and not said anything. Yes. Thank you. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. All right.

Starting point is 00:28:00 Let's go because, man, the media is, they just love this deal. They love the deal because it sucks. this is crazy why do we even do this Trump is no good Obama's deal just warmed over again No that's my favorite bit is that's my favorite bit Is that it looks like Obama's deal It's the same thing it could have done nothing it had been better Let me see I have have Morning Joe doing just that

Starting point is 00:28:29 Let me see where is Here it is Morning Joe Yes temporary deal we've reached and we don't really know exactly what's in it. My concern is, if you look at the way.

Starting point is 00:28:46 Well, of course. We don't know what's in it, but I'm telling you something. It's no good. Deal on noops, which Donald Trump said, this is why he was fighting the war. It is identical, as in plagiarized, as in lifted, strangle crap.

Starting point is 00:29:03 It's not plagiarized. Carbon copied. Mimeograph sheet. of Obama's deal. They used the same words. Say, lifted it off of the Obama deal and put it on this deal on nuke. So the whole idea that Obama was weak on nukes and he's going to be tougher. If you even read the language... Hold on a second. This hasn't been released, has it? Well, the memorandum of understanding, there's versions have been floating around the Iranians. Yeah, but it's just all bullcrap. They don't know what it really says. But he's, how could it be?

Starting point is 00:29:39 Okay, I'm sorry. Just play it. A 14 point memo went out and then everyone's saying this is it. And it's an MOU. It doesn't even matter. It doesn't even matter. It's, you know, it contracts. They're as good as the blood they're written in.

Starting point is 00:29:58 This is why Trump, he just doing what he does with the, it's like, I'm going to buy this building or I'll, I'll put my name on this building. We'll do the construction. All right, I'll sign the MOU. Let the lawyers take care of it. I'll see you in two months. Can I got to sit there and read through the legalese? Anyway.

Starting point is 00:30:17 This memorandum of agreement. Understanding. Okay, well, here's Obama. Iran affirms that under no circumstances will Iran ever seek, develop or acquire any nuclear weapons. That's July 14th, 2015. Republicans melted down. Donald Trump said it was the worst plan ever that Iran.

Starting point is 00:30:37 was going to get a nuclear weapon because of this deal. And this is what Donald Trump says. Iran cannot develop or purchase a nuclear weapon. And actually, it's actually closer than that. I will get it. See, he doesn't even have it. And right there is two different, literally two different words. Procure versus purchase.

Starting point is 00:31:05 They're full of crap. They're totally full of crap. And since it's Obama, we've got to get Obama on. It is doubtful that any agreement that arises is going to be significantly different or a significant improvement from the deal that we had in the first place and had worked for a long stretch of time before we leave the United States. the United States pulled out of it. Okay. All right. Thanks, Obama.

Starting point is 00:31:40 He's doing this pre-promotion for the presidential center. Back to MSNBC. I think it's here. There are sort of two clear losers politically, and one is President Trump himself. There aren't good answers to those questions. Losers. Two sources close to the White House confirmed to me that all of President Trump's advisors, the closest people to him, had turned against this war. They had all were pushing them to just ended in any call of them, because it's been so disaster. just politically.

Starting point is 00:32:06 And then I had a dip out in the region talk about another person I think who's a loser in this politically, and that's Bibi Netanyahu. This person from the region said, I think most people have turned against the war for domestic political reasons. They're referring to countries, I'll say, you know, in the Gulf. And the majority are frustrated with Bibi Netanyahu. So it's an extraordinary outcome. We were just talking about before we started, how just imagining that this war would end this way,

Starting point is 00:32:31 based on what the president promised on February 27th, I think there's no question. Iran is coming out stronger. Iran is much stronger. Iran's the winner, ladies and gentlemen. So they knew this was coming. They knew this was coming. So they sent Vance out. Vance went everywhere, including the View, which I have the clips. I don't think we should play him. It was so stupid. These women are so disappointing as human beings. It's really just... Vance, by the way, besides being on the View, was on every, without... Without fair. Every Fox show. not just Fox. He was on CBS CBS. He was on NBC. He was on Gutfeld. He was on the five. He was on hand. I mean, everything.

Starting point is 00:33:14 This guy, well, of course, he has a book to plug. So that's the, that's the, that's, well, that helps. But that. The gimmick. Maybe that's why they had, you know, that's an interesting point. Because these were probably pre-booked for the book. Yeah. Wow, the timing is interesting. So they had him out ready to do all. He had all, he had all these appearances booked in it because it's his calendar too i wonder by the way when he booked it because this is overbooking if i've ever seen overbooking in my life this has got to be it i wonder if anybody knew that he was so ridiculous he booked that he was on every show because generally speaking if you're a journal let me give you a quick example you journalists would often get uh notes from these

Starting point is 00:34:01 PR companies. And my favorite one was always when I was at PC Magazine and somebody wanted me to write a column about something, they'd send a note saying, oh, you should write a column about this guy because he's great. In fact, he was, he was written about in Vogue and in Harper's and he was in the New York Times and he was in the Washington Post and he was in the blah, blah, blah, and they list off all these things that he's done. And I'm thinking, why am I going to write about him? I look like Johnny come lately. I'm not writing about him. Johnny come lately.

Starting point is 00:34:35 Yeah. I get these. There's so many of these coming out now in my email box because, you know, a podcaster and my Adam McCurry.com, people find that everywhere. I'm getting, and you can market a spam all you want. It keeps coming in. I'll have to read a few more of those in the future because it's exactly like that. And sometimes, but first of all, what idiot are you?

Starting point is 00:35:00 What idiot PR person are you? I hate you because you know I don't do guests if you listen to the show. You don't. So now I hate you. I hate this a strong word. I think you're foolish. So here's Vance on CBS about the comparison. And one final point on this.

Starting point is 00:35:19 You know, you hear a lot of comparisons. How is this different? How is this the same from the JCPOA? I think that fundamentally misunderstands where we are. We have comprehensively destroyed their nuclear program, and this agreement is about ensuring that they don't rebuild it. The JCPOA was fundamentally about bribing them to stop the construction or to cease a nuclear program that was already in progress.

Starting point is 00:35:43 It's a very different background, a very different sort of leverage, and I think really a different outcome for the American people. So the president was very clear at this G7 meeting, which used to be the G8 until everyone decided Russia had to get out. Just, people don't even remember that anymore. I mean, get out. We don't like you anymore. We do.

Starting point is 00:36:03 We do. The president was very clear about the difference between JCPOA and this MOU and 60-day deal. It's very different. Obama did not have, was not in the position to say this. I'm Iran if they don't comply, but there's nothing enforceable in the deal itself. Is that correct? It doesn't have to be. I let him know.

Starting point is 00:36:26 He said, look, if you don't adhere to the agreement, I don't want to do that. But we're going to bomb the hell out of you. And I don't think that they're going to veer from the agreement. What else am I going to do? Am I going to say, I'm going to take you to court? Let me take you to court. Let me sue you. No, we're going to bomb the hell out of them if they violate the agreement.

Starting point is 00:36:45 I don't want them to. I want them to honor the agreement. Again, the straits close up. Bad things can happen. You know, in war. Terrible things happen. Like you mentioned the question before about the school gets hit. Other things get hit.

Starting point is 00:37:00 Bad things happen in war. War is a nasty place. I see it. I see it better than maybe anybody has ever seen it. Okay. So that is the deal. You stop doing this or I bomb you. Mr. President, you've been saying all week that this deal permanently prevents Iran from getting a nuclear weapon.

Starting point is 00:37:20 But the drafts of the deal that have been floating around barely mentioned. Iran's nuclear program. So can you explain how exactly the deal achieves that goal? So when I say permanently, it should be permanently. But if it's not permanently, we will bomb them. They will be bombed, just like I bombed them on Wednesday night and Tuesday night and was going to bomb them on Thursday night at a level that was three times greater. And they knew that. I will bomb them. Now, that's with me as president. If you have a weak, pathetic president, Maybe that doesn't happen, but I can only do the job that I have to do. I have a long time to go.

Starting point is 00:37:58 I have almost three years, close to three years. Time is going fast. Bomb them, bomb them, and bomb them again. Okay. So then there was, you know, part of the drafts and New York Times. I saw people posting, we're going to give them $300 billion. This is horrible. We're the losers.

Starting point is 00:38:18 Bonjour. This is Peter Ducey saying, bonjour. Because he's in France. It's kind of, kind of sad. Bonjour. Bonjour. You've been clear, President Trump, the United States is not going to directly pay Iran, but the U.S. is going to let the Iranians start making billions of dollars,

Starting point is 00:38:44 selling oil, accessing this reconstruction fund. Only if they're doing things right. Only if, Peter, we're not doing anything. We're not putting up money. Only if they're doing things right. If they're doing things right. If people want to invest, they can invest. But they had this $300 million fund.

Starting point is 00:39:04 It's only $300 million fund. It's only if they're doing things right. Remember this also. When you talk about billions of dollars, they've had much more than a trillion dollars worth of damage done. They got a long way. They'll be 15 to 20 years to rebuild what they have right now. So I don't see why it's so hard for people to understand.

Starting point is 00:39:25 that the deal is kind of obvious. You do what we say or we bomb you. You don't need more than one paragraph that says that. People may not like it, but see. Oh. And the 300 billion is coming from the Gulf states. They're the way. And it's mostly in terms of investment.

Starting point is 00:39:46 Yeah. Of course it is. And it's all going to flow into. No, they're just giving them money. No, it's all going to flow into the Abraham Accords. will all be a part of this. And then this is the thought that I find rather interesting. And funny enough, only morning Joe talked about it. Here's Vance on CBS about Israel. Let me ask you this before you go. Is Israel on board with this? It doesn't appear so at this time.

Starting point is 00:40:13 What are you hearing? What are you thinking? Well, Gail, of course, Israel's been a good partner, but we do expect everybody in the region. They've been participating in this peace agreement. they've been participating in our talks with Iran. They understand where our perspective is. And what the president has said is that we expect everybody to honor this agreement. There are always gale these bumpy moments with these ceasefire. Sometimes someone will fire and sometimes somebody responds. We think right now that there are probably people within Iran because the internet blackout.

Starting point is 00:40:44 They're not even aware that this deal has happened. So we certainly expect the Israelis are going to be a participant in this peace process. But we think it's going to be good for them. It's going to be good for us. It's going to be good for the Gulf Coast Coalition. And, Gail, if the Iranians comply with their end of the bargain, it's going to be good for Iran. It's going to totally change their relationship with the region in a way that will generate a lot of prosperity for their people. But again, only if they meet their end of the bargain. So Israel is not happy with this. And Trump doesn't care.

Starting point is 00:41:17 only morning Joe for some reason is the only place I could find talking about this. Let's talk about what it is to be an Israeli this morning, looking at the United States. I've heard from a lot of strong supporters of Israel over the last day. That's Joe saying some of my best friends are Jewish. They feel betrayed. You had on October 7th more Jews killed than any day since. the Holocaust. Netanyahu started a three-year war. Much of it I just absolutely found to be way over the line. And the abuse heaped upon people in Gaza and leveling half of Lebanon. But the

Starting point is 00:42:08 Israeli people went along with it. Support it because of October the 7th. But they launched a three-year war against Iranian proxies and Iran itself. Netanyahu went in and pushed Donald Trump into starting this war. Okay. So there's that meme again. Bull crap. Yeah, it's bull crap. So Trump talked about this a lot, particularly when it was sitting down with the al-Qaeda guy who now runs Syria. And I suggested to Israel. By the way, Fox was all over this. You make it sound like nobody else talked about it, but everybody on Fox was talking about, especially the part you're going to play. which is turning it over to Syria. Yeah, there was a little bit more than that.

Starting point is 00:42:50 And I don't watch Fox religiously. I do find stuff from them, but I take them with this. This is from C-SPAN. I was just watching it on C-SPAN because I don't trust any cable news media. And I suggested to Israel to let Syria take care of Has. But you're telling me Fox was talking about how Israel was disappointed, or were they playing these clips? both okay

Starting point is 00:43:17 because to be honest we needy I think they'd do a better job of doing it right there that was played over and over and I didn't like Syria I didn't like where two hours before was signing the agreement that there was an attack

Starting point is 00:43:33 in Lebanon in Beirut it wasn't like in the southern side and you know it was in Beirut I did not like that I let them know that he wasn't he was not holding back on this. Yeah, no, this was the clip that they played over and over. Over and over.

Starting point is 00:43:49 There's a couple more. I was very responsible for the gentleman that Syria that's now the president of He's done a tremendous job. He's put that country together in a year and a half. Sort of like our country. A year and a half is pretty similar size. They said, please don't put him there. He's a very violent man.

Starting point is 00:44:07 Al-Qaeda. He said, well, I know one thing. A Boy Scouts not going to work. Did Fox have that clip? They didn't have the Boy Scouts. I love that. But they had the rest of it. He'd love to go on it.

Starting point is 00:44:20 You know, Hesbel is an enemy of his, and he'd go in it. But he wouldn't knock down buildings every time he hears there somebody. He'd just go in. Trump is very upset about this. With precision. No, he's, he's upset about the apartment getting leveled because of one guy. Yes, but this is not a man who is controlled by B.B. Netanyahu. That's my point.

Starting point is 00:44:42 Well, that's everybody's point. Except the people that hate our show. We'll get that done. That's a small one. And we'll work with Israel and get it done. But I'd like to do it. I mean, you have people living there. Buildings are being dropped on top of them or right alongside of them.

Starting point is 00:45:06 How would you like to live there? It's so unfair, especially Beirut. You know, you're going to Beirut. and I looked at the scene two days ago yesterday where they hit. That was a big hit. That was unnecessary in my book. And now he's going to take it to Bibi personally. I've had a great relationship with Bibi,

Starting point is 00:45:25 but now Bibi has to be more responsible with respect to Lebanon. Lebanon used to be a great country. It was a country where you had professors, doctors, lawyers. The great intellect was in Lebanon. it's terrible. I would say of all countries have been treated the worst and they can't defend themselves

Starting point is 00:45:48 and they have Hezbollah which is a problem for them. So, no, I'm not happy with the way Israel has handled themselves with Lebanon and with Hezbollah. They should have been able to do this yacht faster.

Starting point is 00:46:04 It just goes on forever. And when that happens, it throws a negative light or the big deal. And that's the deal with Iran. So, so when you ask me about me, an unbelievable relationship. Unbelievable relationship. Unbelievable.

Starting point is 00:46:25 I think that's what it means. It's unbelievable that I even have this guy call me on the phone. Well, my favorite clip from Trump, he says, if it wasn't for me, he'd be in jail. Well, that wasn't a clip. That was the Axios reporting. and he confirmed that on the New York Post interview. We played there a couple weeks ago. Let's listen to what Al Jazeera has to say.

Starting point is 00:46:49 All right. I mean, they don't talk about what you just played so much with the Syria-Israeli thing, but they talk about what might be going on with what Iran really demands. Well, Iran's top diplomat says that any agreement with the United States must include the release of blocked Iranian funds, sanctions relief, and Israel. those withdrawal from Lebanon, as we've been discussing. Listen to Abbas O'Rokshi, and then right after that, U.S. President Donald Trump. The first phase is to end the war, the strait of Hormuz, the naval blockade, and the other topics related to freeing the frozen assets of Iran, the reconstruction.

Starting point is 00:47:28 Every other topic that is related will be dealt with through talks and negotiations for the coming 60 days until we reach a final agreement. During the final agreement, we'll talk about. about the nuclear matters and lifting the sanctions. From our perspective, the two sides of this agreement are America and Israel on one side, and Iran and Isbullah on the other. The end of the war in Lebanon is an inseparable part of the complete end of the war, and the end of the war includes the end of the occupation as well.

Starting point is 00:48:00 All right. Sounds about right. That's what it sounds like. It sounds right. Then we have the CBC chiming in with a couple. of analysis pieces. Good things are happening. Only a few people have seen the fine print of Donald Trump's deal with Iran, the one he claims

Starting point is 00:48:18 will reopen the Strait of Hormuz and end the war. But the U.S. President says within days, everyone will. Iran will never have a nuclear weapon. And it says it loud and clear. Meeting with leaders from the Persian Gulf on the sidelines of the G7 in France, Trump was peppered with questions about Israel. and its intensely negative reaction to his deal. In extraordinary remarks, Trump positioned himself as Israel's savior.

Starting point is 00:48:48 Without the United States, there would be no Israel. Without me, there would be no Israel, because no other president was willing to do what I did. Equally remarkable was his assessment of Israel's military tactics fighting Hezbollah in Lebanon, where more than 3,800 people had been killed. In criticizing the impact on civilians, Trump echoed arguments more commonly used by Israel's harshest international critics. Israel's fighting Israel are too long and too many people are being killed. And you don't have to knock down an apartment house every time you're looking for somebody. Because there are a lot of people in those apartment houses.

Starting point is 00:49:26 And they're not all Eswler. That I can tell you. Yep. Okay. So the CBC is addressing it to some extent is part two. The potential lifting of sanctions to ease Iran's crippled economy and the future of its nuclear program, which both the U.S. and Israel said necessitated the war, have been kicked down the road to be dealt with during two months of negotiations, said Iran's foreign minister, Syed Abbas Arachi.

Starting point is 00:49:59 Israel's full withdrawal from Lebanon must come first, he said. Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu did not address Trump's criticisms of him or his war tactics, but Monday night he vowed to maintain Israel's occupation of southern Lebanon, casting doubt on how long the negotiations with Iran will last. If Trump's deal holds, shipping lanes will reopen and more attacks and bombings averted. But with Iran's leadership emboldened, the alliance between the United States and Israel is being tested, perhaps as never before. Oh, okay. Yeah, valid. By the way, I keep saying by the way, unbelievable.

Starting point is 00:50:41 Right now, CNN and Ms. Now are doing full-on live coverage of this presidential center. And there's John Legend and they're on stage. They're performing, Bruce Springsteen. You've got the Obama's dancing. Oh, Stevie Wonder's there. George Bush is there George Bush is there Oh yeah Oh yeah Dancing like a white guy

Starting point is 00:51:12 Oh man It looks like a very small exclusive concert Which it would make sense Yeah it's just okay All right It's live aid everybody It's just like live aid

Starting point is 00:51:25 We need to go Oh right we need to go live We need to go live This is so awesome Obama's on let's go It's crazy Wow Now, the president didn't do himself a lot of favors with everything he said in France.

Starting point is 00:51:44 Here's Anderson Cooper picked up on it. The nuclear dust. We're going to want that. And I think we're going to get that. We're going to get the dust back. The nuclear dust. The nuclear dust. We're getting the nuclear dust.

Starting point is 00:51:55 That was a term I made up because it's sort of, you know, it's a simpler term for people to understand. It's nuclear dust. sort of dusty, but I said we get the nuclear dust. He can call it whatever he wants, but they're not getting it. When asked about it today, the president said that's no longer a problem, because the material was buried by American airstrikes, which led to this very long soliloquy about granite and marble. They were building or they were enriching material, as they say, I call it nuclear dust. They were enriching material under granite mountains.

Starting point is 00:52:29 granite being, for those not in the construction business, granite being a very strong, the strongest stone. It's not as pretty as marble, but it's much more, it's much stronger. It's a lot stronger. Like the new granite I put

Starting point is 00:52:45 on the stairs of the White House going to the Oval Office, the black granite, it's rated 1 million years plus. No marbles rated that. Marbles rated 100 years if it's outside. So these are granite. It's about granite. I mean, I was expecting to go back about the pool.

Starting point is 00:53:10 Olympic-sized swimming pools. Now with algae. I think it's funny that, yeah. Granite is a different, we use it both, we have used both of these products. Marble's porous. Yeah. Oh, it's stains. You've got to be real careful.

Starting point is 00:53:26 It stains. It stains. But granite does nothing. Yeah. There was one analyst. I did get this from Fox who explained the difference between this Iran deal, which is do what I say, or I throw Obama on your head versus the JCPOA. Former President Obama was on TV earlier today saying, you know, whatever deal the president is able to sign that it wouldn't be much different than his deal, the JCPOA. Can you tell us how this deal is different and how it is better?

Starting point is 00:53:59 So broadly speaking, the JCPOA deal negotiated under President Obama allowed Iran a path toward a nuclear program. Because when we talk about enriched uranium, and this is really important when we look at the difference in these deals here. And I don't want to give you too much of a lesson on enrichment, but it's actually quite important when we're talking about the Obama deal versus the deal that was just signed right now. During the Obama administration, it allowed Iran to continue enriching uranium. And the way that uranium is enriched, the uranium ore is actually. extracted from the ground and then through a chemical process it turns into yellow cake. And then another chemical process, it turns into hexafluoride gas. And they spin that gas very rapidly in advanced centrifuges. And ultimately, the heavier particles go to the outside and

Starting point is 00:54:43 the lighter ones stay in the middle. And this is repeated over and over again until you get to a higher purity of enriched uranium. And to take enriched uranium from, let's say, 5 to 10%, to 20%, ultimately to 60% and eventually 90%, which is weapons-grade material, can be a matter of weeks, if not days. And so allowing the Iranians to keep advanced centrifuges and then enrich uranium, eventually closer to weapons-grade material, set them on a path toward a weapon, because that is a process that is needed to create a nuclear weapon, even if they weren't doing it at that moment. This agreement does not allow the Iranians, according to this senior administration official, to keep any of their enriched material.

Starting point is 00:55:27 And that means they're not going to be able to repeat that process in advanced centrifuges. And then once U.S. forces leave the region, increase the purity of the enriched uranium again toward a nuclear weapon. All right. So that kind of explains it is a little bit different. And the only thing we care about is the price of gas. The FIFA tourists. That's right. The FIFA tourists, they already love it.

Starting point is 00:55:49 They're like, I can't believe how cheap your gas is. What are you complaining about? I'm from Sweden. I'm from Germany. This is so cheap. It's amazing. And the president was asked about this by his shill in the in the press pool. Thank you, President Trump. I'm sorry, this is a different shill.

Starting point is 00:56:07 Oil prices are now plummeting. How do you see this agreement further affecting energy prices in the U.S. and the U.S. economy in the long term. And secondly, Mr. President, how do you think Vice President J. J.D. Vance did on the view yesterday. Well, first of all, thank you for the word plummeting because that's what's happening. Oil prices are plummeting. And that means oil prices are going to come down.

Starting point is 00:56:30 You know, if you make donuts, you have a heating, you have a stove. Donuts! You have to buy the heat. You need the gas or the electricity or whatever you're using. And when oil prices come down, oil is the biggest thing. Oil is, you get oil prices coming down, and they're going to come down. And we're hitting into threes now for gasoline, and that'll come down a lot lower. I don't know what plummeting.

Starting point is 00:56:52 I'm not sure exactly what plummeting. I mean, you plummet to your death, so that's like all the way down to the bottom. What is the definition of plummeting? Falling fast. Let's ask the robot. Book of knowledge. Give me the definition of plummeting.

Starting point is 00:57:11 Oh, my goodness. Let me try that again. Book of knowledge. Give me the definition of plummeting. Oh, the book of knowledge is broken. Hmm. Okay. Did you look it up?

Starting point is 00:57:26 No, it means falling fast. Is this mean falling fast? Really? What do you think it means? Plummit. Let me see. Definition of... Fall from an altitude.

Starting point is 00:57:39 Let's say. I'm just asking. Let's see. The robot should be at. The robot is broke. Robots broken. To fall very quickly and suddenly. Okay.

Starting point is 00:57:52 Fall very quickly and suddenly. I don't know if it's, it is dropping. It has gone down below 80. Well, drop from 100 to 75, so. Well, that's 25%. That's quite a fall. What we know so far is that the oil prices, which were expected, have now come down to $75 a barrel, which was nearly trading about $100, $110, $120 per barrel during the West Asia war crisis.

Starting point is 00:58:20 But now the crude oil prices have slid down. And the Brent has also come down to a 78.3%. Global prices have continued to come down. And this is also going to affect not just India, but also our neighboring countries of China, Japan, South Korea, Europe, which were heavily affected by the instability of the West Asian War. Now, what's interesting is that CNBC is starting to publish articles about an oil glut that is on the horizon.

Starting point is 00:58:53 that there would be too much oil. Have you picked up on this? No, but that'd be great. Yeah, well, they call it the Ghalibaf effect. Mr. Vice President, Brian Sullivan, thank you again for coming on the program. I want to follow up with that because I think it's incredibly important what you just said that if Muhammad Ghalibov, who is seen as a more hardliner, is at the table, that would be construed as an even better symbol, a better sign of where this negotiation

Starting point is 00:59:23 may go. Would you agree with that, that getting somebody like a Mohammed Ghalibov, the Speaker of the House, who is seen as more of a hardliner internally, would be viewed as the best possible outcome here rather than one of the more moderates that might be seen as a little more pro-White House, and yet you still might have this division and factions inside of Iran? Well, I think the best outcome is a good deal for the American people, which we have. Fundamentally, we're dealing with everybody in the Iranian system. You know, there's the IRGC, the sort of regime hardliners, the military side. There's the political leadership.

Starting point is 01:00:00 And within the political leadership, you have people who are more hardline and less hardline. We expect to have a full spectrum of representatives at the negotiation on Friday. Again, we've been talking to these people, sometimes indirectly, but sometimes directly. And that's what's fundamentally changed under the president's leadership. We are now speaking directly to the Iranian system. We have some good relationships there. So this is going to be a successful negotiation because, you know, we're not passing messages through various back channels anymore. We're actually talking to them.

Starting point is 01:00:31 And when you talk to them, you figure out what's real, what's fake, what are they serious about, what are they not serious about? And the thing I'd add to that is we fundamentally have all the cards here. We don't have to give the Iranians anything if they don't make the commitments that we want long term on the nuclear program. Yeah, you're right. Blah, blah, blah. up. Can I ask you a quick question? Yeah. I thought the negotiations were done last week over the weekend and they were going to sign the agreement on Sunday. And the Iranian said, no, we're not going to sign it on Sunday.

Starting point is 01:01:02 We're going to sign the M-O-A or M-O-E or whatever the hell it is. M-O-U. Remember an understanding of M-O-U on Friday and they're going to go sign it on Friday. Now, now all of a sudden I'm hearing that this is negotiations with all kinds of factions. Well, what? Wait, what? No. What he said? Yes. Here's how I understand it.

Starting point is 01:01:23 Since you ask me the question. I am asking you the question. And as an aside, the definition of glut is flooding the market with more supply than there is demand. The memorand of understanding, what I've read, the 14 points, is no more than, shut up, don't create nuclear bombs, or I will bomb you. and we'll figure out all the details in the next 60 days. And that's what Vance is going to sign on Friday. Some elaborate science. Vance makes it sound as though they're going to be doing negotiations on Friday.

Starting point is 01:02:02 That's when the technical, the technical, technical, technical negotiations will start. Who's going to go in and check it? You know, what are the checks and balances? To me, it doesn't matter. what the president is saying, and whether Americans like it or not, he's saying, stop that nonsense, or I will, he's literally saying,

Starting point is 01:02:23 I'll put a bomb on your head. That's the deal. You don't need anything else. I mean, his point is valid. You know, so we have a 150-page document. What's the point? And if they violate the document, there's no point.

Starting point is 01:02:39 His point is valid. What's his point? Get rid of all your nuclear dust. don't mess with the straight of Hormuz. Is that a point or is that an assertion? No, that's a point. That is a point in the memorandum of understanding. Stop and stop messing with shipping in the straight of Hormuz.

Starting point is 01:02:59 That's it. Or I will put a bomb on your head. That's it. That's the whole deal. Now, will that hold up an international court? No, that's what Trump said. What am I going to do? I sue these guys if they break the deal?

Starting point is 01:03:13 No, as long as he's president. that's the deal. And the next president, we'll see. He even said that. Did you see when he walked into the G7 and said, I'm the boss? Did you see that? Yes, I did. It was hilarious. It wasn't good enough for audio, unfortunately. Yeah. It was a lot of fun things that happened at the G7. And my favorite was, Starmer, like, we did this. We're going to do this. We're all in. Aren't we good? Well, let me first say how much we welcome the deal that President Trump has been able to get in this situation and congratulate him and the mediators on the work that they have done because this is a

Starting point is 01:03:49 really important breakthrough. At the G7 here, we've been discussing the details of that deal. Oh, we're discussing the details. You're not in the negotiation, Starmor. How we get the Strait of Hormuz open as quickly as possible. As you will know, President Macron and I put together a group of countries prepared to play their part in terms of reassurance to get vessels through the strait. That is hugely... We're going to be... We're going to play a part of assurance.

Starting point is 01:04:19 Important in terms of reopening the strait. Very, very important for us in the United Kingdom. Very important. Of course, the strait being closed in the way that it has had an impact on our economy, had an impact on every household across the country. So we'll play our full part in relation to that. Yes, we're here. We're side by side.

Starting point is 01:04:38 Our special relationship is restored. We're good to go. And if anything, I still fully believe that this was just as much about killing the old systems with Lloyds of London. You know, now there's all these other insurance companies. We're the ones that are controlling what's happening there. And the city of London and the British crown, all those people, they're cut off. They're out of the deal. Go mess around with NATO and Ukraine and see if you can make that work.

Starting point is 01:05:11 I think it's a very, I think it's a very good deal for America. And it was interesting because the, the oil baron, he's like, you know, a lot of analysts are saying it's going to shoot up over 100, 150. Like, what are you talking about? I don't think this, we've heard this before. I don't think the deal will really be finalized and so, well, after the midterms. That doesn't seem likely. After the midterms? Now, I think there's a lot of guys in the oil business.

Starting point is 01:05:43 like we we got to keep this going this is great for us but i got a just obama clip just came my obama clip obama clip hold on a second and the obama the obama let let me just i just i just i just i just i just i just i just i just i just i just i just i just i just i just i just i just i just i just i just i just i just i just i just i just i just i just i just i just i just i just i just i just imagine that that imagine if I had pulled Fox News' credentials from the White House press corps. Are you so bored with me that you're going to put a poorly edited Obama clip in all of a sudden? Well, poorly edited. Oh, that's the worst thing to say. Click, click, click, click, click.

Starting point is 01:06:27 It wasn't even rhythmic. Click, click. Oh, we have that. I'm sorry, but Obama. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Hey. See? that's a good Obama.

Starting point is 01:06:47 So just as an aside, there was a story that ran that unreported every place, it seems to me, during all this brouhaha and the G7 and every place else. I bet you haven't heard about this. The Rubio Rao with India? No, I haven't. The U.S. Secretary of State, Marco Rubio,

Starting point is 01:07:11 has told his Indian counterpart that any violation, of the blockade of Iran will not be tolerated. He also warned against what he called the illicit transport of Iranian oil in the Strait of Hormuz. Ambarasan Etirajan reports. Mark Rubio made the comments after the Indian foreign minister, Subramanyam Jashanka, called him to protest over the killing of three Indian seafarers by an American strike on a merchant vessel.

Starting point is 01:07:37 It was one of three ships with mostly Indian crew that were attacked this week, as the U.S. enforces its naval blockade on Iran. Delhi lodged a strong diplomatic protest. Despite the two countries sharing close ties, the latest comments by Mr. Rubio are clearly seen as a snub, as one former Indian diplomat pointed out there was no regret over the killing of unarmed civilian sailors of a friendly country.

Starting point is 01:08:03 Ooh, what? I had not heard that. BBC, interesting. Yeah. I hadn't heard that. This is from the same country where they're doing this to their school children. Now, woke schools teaching pupils that Stonehenge was built by black people, Alex. Yes. So children are being taught that Stonehenge is a story male online today.

Starting point is 01:08:25 Stonehenge was built by black people and the Roman Emperor Nero married a trans woman. These are the stories that are big, and they're also being told in pro-transgender lessons that slaves had their. body parts altered and it was a form of gender transition. I mean, you couldn't make it up. Yeah. Of course. That's exactly what they're doing. That's good.

Starting point is 01:08:54 You're topping me now with this jack-off clips. Like shooting fish in a barrel. Do you want to talk about Ukraine and Russia for a minute or is it too much war? I'm going to go to something else. I think we can move on to other stuff. Okay. There's nothing going on there. that I can tell.

Starting point is 01:09:13 It's worth talking about as new. Well, they hit, Ukraine drones hit, um, hit targets in Russia again. And what I'm hearing, I'll take it with a grain of salt, is that Russia may be ready to,

Starting point is 01:09:30 um, show what they can really do. Like hit them with something bigger. Yeah. Well, we'll see. Like a mini nuke. Mini nuke.

Starting point is 01:09:40 It seems highly unlikely because all the, radiation will go into Russia. Depends on where. If they hit him near Poland, they go into Poland. It depends on how the wind is blowing. Well, that would make, they're not doing that. Here's something, although we already knew it and we already discussed it. Byron Allen was on CBS, the station where I see David Letterman now at the Obama Presidential Center. Oh, my goodness.

Starting point is 01:10:07 Oh, man. It's a party you do not want to be at. It's like, I don't want to be there. Well, anything with John Legend is the giveaway. And Bruce Springsteen, both on the same stage because their music is so alike. Here's Byron Allen explaining his deal. So how did this deal turn out? Like, how did it work?

Starting point is 01:10:25 Because you talked to Kevin Fraser about it. Yeah. This is something that you had to come out of pocket for. It's something you're very passionate about. Yeah. So the, you know, the networks are challenged because sports rights are very expensive. Of course. And, you know, add dollars is shifting from linear to digital.

Starting point is 01:10:40 So there's some financial pressure. And I've invested about a billion dollars buying ABC, NBC, NBC, CBS, and Fox affiliates, and other assets like the Weather Channel. So I bought the Weather Channel about eight years ago. And what I said to the networks, I said, look, you're spending about $150 million on Colbert and the show after Colbert. So you've decided to cancel both of them. My recommendation is that you don't spend money on that time period now that you have the same. decided to cancel them because at the end of the day, you're throwing me an audience at 1.30 in the morning to my CBS affiliates that I own around the country. And I'm running half hour infomercial,

Starting point is 01:11:21 spray on hair, you know, abs in 24 hours. I said, save your money. I will put my show Comics Unleash on. Now, I started Comics Unleash. Well, first of all, they said this is great. Yeah, they said, this is a great idea. You're going to save us 150 to 170 million? Well, I'd love that use your business mind to you kind of transform the comedy world. But you just mentioned that you've written jokes for David Letterman, and you know the public criticism from Letterman, from Kimmel from others about CBS canceling Colbert. How does that sit with you as the person who's taking on this time slot? I think it was a very unfortunate event. I love Stephen Colbert. I'm a big fan. Once they made the decision, I said, okay, this isn't show business. This is business show.

Starting point is 01:12:00 You know, they're losing lots of money. I said, here's a solution, not to lose lots of money. And I think we can hold on to his audience and hopefully build on it because it is business show, not show business. And I'm sure that CBS right after that said, so people were wrong that it wasn't Trump who got him fired. It was really about money? Yeah, they didn't. They didn't.

Starting point is 01:12:23 One more that you will be interesting. The guy's a genius. Byron Allen. I don't know. I'm skeptical about buying all the local affiliates, though. What is the long-term value of that? He sees everything as a vehicle for infomercial. and his shows.

Starting point is 01:12:42 Yeah, but, okay, I just don't know what the viewership is anymore. It has to be, I mean, just over time, it's declining. There's enough evidence of that, so I just wonder if he can make it. No, I'm sure he's made a calculation. He's not dumb. He's not dumb.

Starting point is 01:13:00 He's not dumb. So here is an ad that popped up that Steve, the clip collector, included in his batch to me this morning. Did you know that the average American sees up. up to nine pharmaceutical ads every day. That adds up to 16 hours of pharmaceutical ads every year.

Starting point is 01:13:17 Are you sick and tired of pharmaceutical companies pushing medications you probably don't even need just to drive up profits? You're not alone. Nearly three out of four American voters want Big Pharma to stop advertising directly to consumers. But Big Pharma ignores what people want. In 2025 alone, drug makers spent $9 billion on direct-to-consumption. advertising. Enough is enough. Big Pharma needs to give that time back to Americans. Voters are ready for

Starting point is 01:13:47 lawmakers to take a stand and get Big Pharma off our airwaves and out of our living rooms. Tell Congress it's time to ban direct-to-consumer advertising by pharmaceutical companies. Learn more at pharmareformalliance.com paid for by Pharmaceutical Reform Alliance, Inc. How about that? Farms about time. I don't know why they have to do put together a group when all it should happen is the president and the HHS secretary should just put just put the key bosh on it. We're the only country besides New Zealand in the entire world that allows this. Well, they're calling. And it's created a situation where the big farmers pushing people around. They've got too much political power.

Starting point is 01:14:32 If you look at pharma reformaliance.com, this is quite a big group of partners. I'd say on this page, probably about 50 of them. Like who? The name of you. Okay. I'll start at the top. Association of Builders and Contractors in Greater Michigan. Ash woodworking.

Starting point is 01:14:57 That's like a bad idea supply should be on here. Let's see. California. So far, two lightweights. Well, there's a lot of them. California African American Chamber of Commerce, California Black Chamber of Commerce, California Hispanic, Calizian Chamber of Commerce. I have chambers of commerce. Citizens unite. Let's see. I'm looking for some big names here. Doster Law offices, meaningless. Event ticket authority.

Starting point is 01:15:36 You're right. It seems like a lot of small. small company, a lot of real estate people for some reason. And they say they are, what do they say here? Bipartisan Alliance whose members are united by common goals, holding Big Pharma accountable for ripping off the American people and making prescription drugs more affordable and accessible in the United States once and for all. I smell Trump somewhere.

Starting point is 01:16:03 And they have a... Not done well enough to be Trump. They have a, they're at 1,300 Pennsylvania Avenue. So it's not like Avenue K. It's not like Avenue K. Republican women of East Alabama. I know. I like that they're doing the ads.

Starting point is 01:16:21 And if, you know, yes, I'm sure that the reason I say I smell Trump is because he knows that it's a problem if he just signs an executive order. You know, it has to go through Congress. They need a, dare I say it, a grassroots movement. That's what they need. I think someone's trying something. Did banning cigarettes ad require that? Congress.

Starting point is 01:16:44 Yes, it did require Congress, absolutely. Do we know that for a fact? We can't ask the robot anymore. I think the robot may be fixed. Kick it, kick it. No, hold on. Let me see if the robot is, let me see if the robot's working again.

Starting point is 01:17:01 What was your question? Did it require an act of Congress to ban cigarette advertising? Book of knowledge. Did it require an act of Congress to ban cigarette advertising? And that's still broken. What does it do? It's flips a page and dies? Yeah.

Starting point is 01:17:19 It's getting an error. Let's talk about voter fraud. I have the other robot working on fixing that robot as we speak. It'll get fixed during the show. You have the one robot fixed yet? Yeah. There you go. Now you're talking.

Starting point is 01:17:31 Exactly. Let's go with, I get some voter fraud clips. Okay. You want to set it up. Yeah, voter fraud in California is ridiculous and is being ignored. And people, you know, we talk about it all the time on the show. We had some good clips about how it works. But they've been uncovering stuff left and right.

Starting point is 01:17:54 And there's got to be something done about it because, you know, half of the dead people in California are voting. Because you haven't registered, I need to register you. I can get paid too. I'm paying you guys. I need to get paid. This is the video taken on. Gid Row that the Department of Justice says has sparked an investigation and to vote a registration fraud in Los Angeles. The video created by right-wing political activist James O'Keefe was posted back in March.

Starting point is 01:18:21 And on Monday, Assistant Attorney General Hermit Dillon, alongside First Assistant U.S. Attorney Bill Saly, and officials with the FBI, announced an arrest and charges in the case. They say 64-year-old Brenda Lee Brown Armstrong, a longtime signature gatherer for petitions, has been charged with paying people, including some experiencing homelessness, to register to vote. Prosecutors say her motivation, petition gatherers are paid for valid signatures, which require the person signing to be a registered voter. She would then gather, starting in 2025, stacks of voter registration forms from the Los Angeles County Registrar of voters, and then go to Skid Row in downtown Los Angeles to have homeless people

Starting point is 01:19:04 first sign the voter registration forms and then sign. the signature petitions. In exchange, they say she would offer cash, which is illegal under federal law, and have them use her old address on the form. These were often small sums of cash, just a few dollars, as well as cigarettes and phone cards. She had them put her address as the address to receive the ballots. What she was going to do with those ballots when received was to be determined. But this is an example of election fraud.

Starting point is 01:19:34 Yeah, it's the homeless people they're paying. that's also an example of marketing explain well smart marketing she gets paid so much for signatures on petitions she has these people create those signatures so she can get she probably makes five dollars per signature on a petition and cost her two bucks to get somebody to create a new voter registration she makes three bucks on that arbitrage

Starting point is 01:20:03 right well that was that was because california law allows uh... ballot harvesting, which I don't think is legal everywhere. It's a fabulous marketing opportunity for this woman. She should be given at least some kudos from one of the, you know, maybe an award or something from advertising age, perhaps. Oh, the golden, what is this, what is they having, the golden lion? What is it? Something like that.

Starting point is 01:20:30 They're doing con. A golden lion for this wonderful, wonderful campaign. The announcement comes as California. prepares for the June 2nd primary election, with Monday marking the deadline to register to vote for a mail-in ballot, while in-person voter registration extends to May 23rd. Federal officials also tied the case to a broader legal battle over access to California's voter rolls, which they suspect have undocumented residents registered to vote, something California officials have denied. In terms of what the broader electorate thinks about this, it's not the case that folks.

Starting point is 01:21:07 are worried about people who are ineligible participating. Matt Lesigné is a political science professor at Cal State University, Long Beach. He says cases of election fraud are rare in the U.S. amid safeguards like signature verification. They always say that. And says research continues to show that voter fraud has little to no impact on election outcomes. The nationwide, we see this less than two dozen in the thousands of elections that we have across the country. so it is a microscopic rate of incidents in voter fraud.

Starting point is 01:21:43 He also warned of the difference between voter registration fraud and a fraudulent ballot that actually gets counted for a race. Federal prosecutors have not alleged that fraudulent ballots were cast in Brown Armstrong's case, but when asked about the scope of this investigation, they say it's just the tip of the iceberg. This is part of a larger investigation. We'll get into all that, I think, soon in the future. And until more arrests and charges are announced, experts say elections in America remain secure. Yes, secure and safe and effective. They always do that.

Starting point is 01:22:17 I mean, it's a ridiculous report. I mean, I've got two more clips, but play this one instead or skip to this voter fraud taxes in L.A. This is a Twitter guy or somebody, you know. Twitter guy. And influence. And some just a local bitching and moaning about the opposite. So the people of L.A. literally just voted to increase their own taxes. And I don't mean they did that by voting for Karen Bass. No, I mean, there was an actual ballot question saying, hey, do you guys want to

Starting point is 01:22:47 pay more in taxes? And the people of L.A. apparently said yes. Now you may be asking yourself, who the fuck would vote to raise their own taxes? Well, here's how that vote actually went down. So the people that came and voted in person, yeah, almost unanimously voted against that ballot measure. They were like, oh don't wait, you want to raise our taxes? fuck that. But then you had to mail-in ballots. And in the early mail-in ballots, they also voted against it. But the ballots that came in after election day, you know, the ones that were like 65% in Ithia-Roman, yeah, they overwhelmingly voted in favor of raising their own taxes. By the way, they raised it from nine points. They raised their sales tax from 9.75 to 10.25. They voted in favor of a more than 10% sales tax.

Starting point is 01:23:38 But yeah, I mean, look, here's the thing. You can argue that it's strange that so many late ballots, you know, 65% were in favor of Nithia Rahman. I think it's even crazier than more to 80% of those ballots were in favor of raising their own taxes. Yeah, which brings us right back to the very beginning of this episode. You live in a crazy place. I'm not in L.A.

Starting point is 01:24:04 It's California. California is, it's nuts. Well, I think it's corrupt. Okay. Claced with fraud. Well, I have a question for you. I have a report for you and I need to ask you a question about it before you fall into the Pacific Ocean. A new study find San Andreas has built up more pressure today than in the last 1,000 years priming the SoCal region for just what geologists.

Starting point is 01:24:34 have warned about for decades, the big one. You've got to imminent to a geologist is like in the next century. Iconic seismologists for the USGS, Dr. Lucy Jones, says this study tells us a lot, but it doesn't tell us everything. It doesn't tell us when the next earthquake's going to be. To understand the future, geologists looked to the past, compiling data from the last 1,000 years and creating this snapshot. The red along the fall represents historically high pressure, built by over a century of calm,

Starting point is 01:25:04 with no significant quake to ease the earth's energy. Unfortunately there in Southern California, you guys, you know, are plagued with a lot of different fault lines, including the sort of the different parts of the San Andreas itself and other faults like the San Jacinto. And it's at that intersection of faults sitting here at the critical corridor of the Cajon Pass that acts as a gateway through the state,

Starting point is 01:25:23 meaning a potentially massive quake stretching from one end of California to the next. So there have been some earthquakes in the past that look like they went the whole length from south all the way to north through the coast. and the stress level is extra high on sort of both sides of that right now, increasing the chances that the next one could actually rip right through that area and be a larger earthquake overall. A double fault rupture much worse than a single fault event, which we know is still deadly, like the 1989, 6.9 Loma Prieta quake and San Francisco, killing 63 people.

Starting point is 01:25:55 Well, your local boots on the ground knowledge of this thousand year stress on the fault? Well, we've been talking about there's something going to happen in Southern California for the last decade. Yeah. Earthquake-wise. And so they're still talking about it. The way I see it, something's going to happen. It's going to be in the next 50 years. Okay.

Starting point is 01:26:20 Yeah, that's a bet would be easy to take. Book of Knowledge has been fixed by the robot. Let's ask the question again. Book of Knowledge. Did it require an active Congress to ban, to ban, tobacco advertising on television in America. Yes, he's back. He's working.

Starting point is 01:26:38 Okay, Book of Knowledge. Let's see if you can actually find anything. According to the Book of Knowledge, yes, it most certainly did. The Public Health Cigarette Smoking Act was a 1970 federal law, approved by the United States Congress and signed into law by President Richard Nixon, which banned cigarette advertisements on American radio and television. There you go. Yeah, that means it's never going to happen.

Starting point is 01:27:08 Maybe. The cigarette people were never the kind of lobbyists that the pharma people are. Well, they should have it. There's just a couple of cigarette companies. They weren't really selling stuff for thousands of dollars a pill. They weren't lobbying like this. They weren't contributing to the campaigns of the president to the extreme that the farmer people are. This is never going to happen.

Starting point is 01:27:28 You just, that you just bummed me out. Well, maybe Elon Musk with his trillion dollars can lobby everybody. He can get the president elected, so maybe he can do that. Yeah, maybe. We should lobby Elon. Well, on the topic of California, they might as well play a little bit of this. You don't want those other two fraud clips? Are you good with those?

Starting point is 01:27:48 Oh, yeah, let's play those. Let's play fraud clip because these are from ABC. A Los Angeles County woman has agreed to plead guilty to paying people on Skid Row to register to vote. Federal officials announcing the charge against Brenda Lee Brewery. Brown Armstrong this week, which carries a maximum penalty of five years in prison. The national news as Jeff Harris joining us. And according to her plea agreement, we do know Brown Armstrong allegedly worked as a petition

Starting point is 01:28:14 circulator for nearly two decades. There is striking social media video. What else is coming to light? So in that plea agreement, Brown Armstrong admitting to working as a paid petition circulator, allegedly targeting the homeless while gathering signatures throughout the Los Angeles area. The bombshell admission coming after federal officials got their hands on an undercover video. The Justice Department announcing this week, Brown Armstrong has been federally charged and has agreed to plead guilty to one felony count of paying another person to register to vote, including the homeless along L.A. Skid Row. We're committed to protecting the integrity of all American elections at the Department of Justice Civil Rights Division.

Starting point is 01:28:54 But there needs to be a commitment by people and leaders here in California. According to her plea agreement, Brown Armstrong for nearly two decades worked as a petition circulator being paid by coordinators to gather signatures to qualify initiatives, recalls, and referendums for California state ballots. She paid the homeless around two or three bucks to fill out voter registration forms instructing them to use her own former L.A. resident. Yep. Yeah, it's just basically the same. Reiterated more professionally. I want to play this clip. This is news. whining. This is only part of a six-minute rant. Oh, can I do the setup for this?

Starting point is 01:29:32 Is this the Justice Department probe? Oh, there's a setup? Yeah, I have a setup. I got a setup. Oh, okay. I got a setup. California Governor Gavin Newsom is accusing President Donald Trump of ordering the Justice Department to launch a politically motivated investigation into him and his wife. Newsom says federal agents have been questioning his family, his friends, and former employees,

Starting point is 01:29:55 The Democratic governor has frequently mocked President Trump on social media. Newsom claims the DOJ is searching for a crime that does not exist. He says he is being targeted for one reason. Okay. You want your whining? Yeah, and he was listening to you do it. So Newsom goes on the TV and he starts whining. In recent days, federal agents have knocked on the doors of family friends and former employees.

Starting point is 01:30:20 Not because they found a crime because they're simply trying to find one. They're demanding records. They're abusing the grand jury process, digging through years and years of random documents. Donald Trump isn't just coming after me because of my mean tweets. He's coming after me because I'm considering running for president because he hates that I've consistently called him out over and over again for his lies and deceit. Nice. is simply the most corrupt president in American history. He's not going after him anyway.

Starting point is 01:30:59 It's after his wife. Yeah. He's making $3.5 million a year. And it's not that it's illegal to take most of the money from an NGO or any of these little organizations you start. It's that they think there may be some tax fraud involved. Oh, I thought it was behest payments is what it's called. Well, that's probably that.

Starting point is 01:31:20 too they're looking for something so she's she's suspicious she seems she seems uh i don't know if you've seen her much recently what we see her here she is seems oddly nervous about for not just since this began yeah no kidding but for a long time she seemed oddly nervous she reminds me of waltz's wife uh the the turning the page woman who is just like you bug-eyed and and really strange. Well, so the way I understand the behest payments is, and you're right, the way I understand it is a company can donate money to the governor and it would be for any nonprofit the governor designates.

Starting point is 01:32:12 And the governor happens to designate some or all of that money to his wife's nonprofit, which I think is some LGBTQ plus non. nonsense. Yeah. And then, you know, you see that these companies, notably AT&T and Comcasts, get huge $70 million, $125 million million dollar contracts with the state of California. Yeah. And the fact that he's out there saying this tells me there's something there.

Starting point is 01:32:40 I agree. He went on and on and on protesting too much. Yes. You know, if he just lay low and, you know. But no, he's done that of style. So, I'm going to see if this is, I don't know if this is the clip that I was looking for about the screw worm. All of a sudden, people are starting to figure out that the cartels,

Starting point is 01:33:05 the Mexican cartels, are smuggling 800,000 cattle a year from Central America in New Mexico with fake ear tags, falsified records. And this is what's brought the screw worm back to Texas. and I'm telling you when they really get into it, they're going to find more than cows. They're going to find drugs and people. Yeah, you want a uniform response in some way. No, this is not what I thought it was.

Starting point is 01:33:31 This sucks. No, this is not the clip I thought it was. Yeah, but I've heard that too. Well, we talked about it in the last show, and I heard it maybe from Texas Slim, I wouldn't be able to say for sure. And I think we're going to see art imitating life in Dutton Ranch from Taylor Sheridan.

Starting point is 01:33:54 I think that's where the storyline is going to go. This is going to come out. It's going to be pretty big. And then, you know, what Trump is going to do is going to go bomb some cartel guy, which is what we're doing now. Well, he's done it before. Yeah, that's what I'm saying is what we're doing that. We're bombing cartel people.

Starting point is 01:34:12 I know, as an American, I'm kind of digging it. Yeah, let's go blow some people up. Suckers. And an update on the S&S. SPLC Southern Poverty Law Center. Oh, these guys. This is great. New details are drawing attention to a former top official at the Southern Poverty Law Center,

Starting point is 01:34:33 the organization best known for tracking hate groups and extremism. It's always worse than we thought. According to the Justice Department's expanding case against the SPLC, a senior official identified in court documents as employee too, was in a romantic relationship with a comprehensive. confidential informant embedded inside the white supremacist group National Alliance. They didn't just pay them to foment the hate they told their donors they were fighting. They actually dated them.

Starting point is 01:35:02 The superseding indictment alleges the informant known as Field Source Number 9 received more than $1 million in payments from the SPLC over several years. Prosecutors also claim employee two and the informant shared a home and two joint bank accounts. The indictment alleges approximately $140,000 in donor money ultimately flowed into those accounts and was used to pay the couple's personal living expenses. While the indictment does not identify employee to by name, news reports have identified the person as Heidi Barrett, the former director of the SPLC's Intelligence Project and a prominent researcher of white supremacist movements. This is so good. This is so good. Have you seen this woman?

Starting point is 01:35:51 No. Oh, how can I put this tactically? She could be... Tactically, you mean... You mean... You don't mean tactically, you mean... What do I mean? What's the word? Tactfully.

Starting point is 01:36:03 Taxfully, thank you. Yes. How can I put this tactfully? The cartels could have smuggled her from Mexico. Well, she looks Spanish? No. She looks like... Okay, what's her name?

Starting point is 01:36:16 I forget it at the end there. Let's see. Let's see. Hold on. Let me get her name. By name, news reports have identified the person as Heidi Barrick. Heidi Berrick. Heidi Berrick.

Starting point is 01:36:31 Look at Heidi Berrick. It's like, yeah, it seems exactly like the kind of woman who would be shacking up with a Hitler or a sympathizer. A neo-Nazi. Bovine-esque. Thank you. Thank you. The troll room was helping me out. Yes, that's good.

Starting point is 01:36:49 Bovine-esque. Would you hire her as a supermodel? Yes, she has a fake ear tag. You can... Okay, trolls. Did you find her? No, there's no pictures ever in here. There's some thin blondes.

Starting point is 01:37:03 It doesn't sound bovine-esque. No. No, no. While you're looking for that, briefly, uh, Jeff Bezos, doubles down on his vision for AI, and I am all in on AI with Bezos. I know there's a lot of concern that many people have, including many smart people,

Starting point is 01:37:27 that AI is going to make humans redundant and so on. I totally disagree with this point of view, and I think, in fact, AI is going to create a labor shortage because it's going to make it possible for people to identify more problems. We have an endless set of things to invent, and we are only limited today. we are limited not by our imaginations, but by what we can actually do. I promise you every single person in this audience has had an idea for a new business or a new product or a new device that they wish they could manufacture. And that idea stayed in your head and went nowhere.

Starting point is 01:38:07 And the reason it stayed in your head and went nowhere is because it's too hard to do and it wasn't worth it. and if we can accelerate the dream build loop all of the ideas will then become possible and we end up limited not by our capabilities but by our imaginations I love that too the dream build loop it's more like a gap the dream build loop

Starting point is 01:38:31 another Silicon Valley a term that I never heard of dream build loop well it's new he's launching something new I think it's good I might as well. The dream build loop is expensive.

Starting point is 01:38:47 Now, for the first time, Nvidia, going to raise $20 billion in debt. Why is this? I don't know. They're making nothing but money, hand over a fist. Do you think it's like an insurance policy somehow?

Starting point is 01:39:01 Like, hey, you know, something's going to happen. We may need some extra cash. Yeah, they might want to have some cash. Yeah, that's possible. Or maybe take some off the table or to buy back shares. I mean, they got to just...

Starting point is 01:39:13 Well, if it's used to buyback shares, that'd be scandalous. Okay, like the circular financing that's going on in this whole industry isn't scandalous by itself. And then you have this, sorry, Bernie Sanders. Mani, he really is proposing, he's falling for this hook, line, and sinker. For the, oh, we need a... Well, these guys, wait, let's stop for a second. Don't forget that everybody is falling for the quantum hook line and sinker. The quantum nonsense.

Starting point is 01:39:43 Where's the quantum computer? The one that'll do things so fast that passwords will be obsolete. Now, but the scam here, which it goes back to when they had that big meeting and Musk was there and Ellison was there and Altman was there and they had this closed door meeting with all the senators. Oh, this is so dangerous. AI can do in the future. It's going to take away everybody's job.

Starting point is 01:40:15 And we have, you know, we need special regulation. We have to be involved in everything. This is the, this is the, they, Haltman was saying with Chad, before it even the, the chat bot came out, oh, we can't release a chat GPT too. We can't release that. Because it, it'll kill the economy. You know, or anthropics of mythos, oh, we can't release that.

Starting point is 01:40:38 It's too dangerous. Yeah, well, that was, we were. You already discussed this that it's part of a marketing strategy. Yeah. So, but the marketing strategy now is, and I think they're all in on it. I think these guys want it. Please, would you become shareholders of our companies so that when this thing blows, you'll bail us out.

Starting point is 01:40:57 We all go down together. We all go down together or you bail us out. I mean, what is our GDP based on currently? isn't it just I mean the GDP doesn't mean Boeing Yeah Boeing Lockheed

Starting point is 01:41:16 Yeah this definitely But are but are those The big GDP contributors Boeing and Lockheed are for sure Yeah So that's interesting So you don't think the A The MAG 7

Starting point is 01:41:31 The MAG 7 You don't think they're They contribute to the GDP Alphabet Well they contribute to the They definitely definitely contribute to the stock market indexes because they own half. I mean, they're overweighted.

Starting point is 01:41:45 Well, this is interesting because I keep hearing everywhere, and I don't know, I keep hearing, oh, well, you know, the whole GDP is all built upon the AI companies and the magnificent seven. Is that true? No, they're not. The GDP is getting nothing from these guys. Oh, that's, this is good to know because I can. Well, they're losing money. How's that a positive benefit for GD?

Starting point is 01:42:08 Well, what is what, okay, what is GDP? This is good to know. People don't know this. The gross domestic product. What is being made manufacturing? What's it worth? What's the value on an annualized basis? The fact, ask the robot, what is GDP?

Starting point is 01:42:25 What's the definition of GDP? Okay, well, ask the robot. Book of knowledge. What is the definition of GDP and what are the 10 biggest companies in America that contribute to the U.S. GDP? Now you're talking. Now you're talking. Let's see. It's a multi-stager.

Starting point is 01:42:41 We don't know if the robot can hand. It might be too much. We're asking AI about AI. This should be interesting. It's scribbling a lot. Here we go. According to the book of knowledge, gross domestic product, or GDP, is the total monetary value of all goods and services produced within a nation's borders over a given period,

Starting point is 01:43:03 serving as the primary measure of a country's economic output and health. As for the ten mightiest corporate titans contributing to that grand sum, the freshly inscribed. Fortune 500 list for 2026 reveals the following. Ranked by revenue, one, Amazon. $717 billion, $1,000, $713 billion, $3, United Health Group. Force 48 billion dollars for Apple, to show up. Josh? It has been written.

Starting point is 01:43:39 It crapped out after Apple. There you go. Well, Apple sells a lot of phones. So that's a real product. But the AI companies won't be listed. They don't do, Jack. What do they produce? Let me ask the top 10 again, book of knowledge.

Starting point is 01:43:52 Give me the top 10 companies in America that contribute to US GDP. There we go. I just want those that cut off for some reason. Because it's still a robot. Robots suck. Planckers. They're no good. Don't.

Starting point is 01:44:08 What? Don't insult it while it's working. According to the book of knowledge from the freshly inscribed Fortune 500 list of 2026. It can't handle it. Here are the 10 mighty... No, it's going to cut out again. I insults it. I have to insult it.

Starting point is 01:44:24 It's not doing his job. It's just to me Amazon and Walmart again. Yeah, well, Amazon and Walmart would be at the top of the list. It would be easier to just look it up. Chimony. Top 10. GDP companies in the USA. Okay.

Starting point is 01:44:48 We'll just ask the other robot. I'm going to ask the real one. The real one. Walmart, Amazon, United Health Group, Apple, CVS Health, Berkshire Hathaway. Oh, yeah. Alphabet at 7, Exxon Mobil at 8, Microsoft at 9, and Costco at 10.

Starting point is 01:45:06 Where's the AI companies that are killing us? There's not in there. There won't be. They suck. You're right. You're right. You are right. But where's Lockheed Martin?

Starting point is 01:45:19 Well, that surprises me. Yeah, they're not in there. Yeah, they should be in there. They take a lot of money. The top 10... Maybe that's all it is. Here, the top 10 Department of Defense contractors, Lockheed Martin, RTX, that used to be Raytheon,

Starting point is 01:45:37 North of Grumman, General Dynamics, Boeing, L3. Oh, man, those guys. Wasn't that... L3 guys. Remember they did all the... L3 Harris. That's Harris. Yeah. Laidoss. Huntington Ingalls Industry. Booze Alan Hamilton and CACI International.

Starting point is 01:45:58 So yeah. So this is bull crap. So they don't need a bailout. They don't need anything like that. Well, I'm glad we solved that. We didn't solve anything. I was misinformed. No, I was missing form. Well, you were misinformed. That's true. Well, let's listen to Bernie Sanders then.

Starting point is 01:46:14 Wait, where's Bernie? Why is Bernie not playing? Oh, here he is. Let's talk about AI. You know, these companies, you know, Dario Amadeh, at Anthropic, has talked about the potential for, you know, huge unemployment among entry-level white-collar jobs in the next, you know, five or ten years. You're introducing a plan for the government to use a one-time 50% tax on the stock of the largest AI companies to create a sovereign wealth fund.

Starting point is 01:46:45 A tax on what? A tax on debt. You estimate it could be worth. Tax on loss. So they get to write it off, I guess. $7 trillion. How would this work? And why is it necessary, you think? Well, Anderson. AI is the most transformative technology in the history of humanity.

Starting point is 01:47:04 It's going to impact every man, woman, and child. Right now, it is being owned and pushed by the wealthiest people in the world. Mr. Mosque, Mr. Basie. Ovaligarchs. Zuckerberg, Ellison, and others. Their goal is simply more wealth and more power. My own view is that, given the fact that the foundation of AI

Starting point is 01:47:26 is based on human knowledge, they've accumulated all of human knowledge. Oh, yeah, after 19... You know, this guy is a crank. Must play. They don't even have anything in the LLMs that before. the year 2000.

Starting point is 01:47:46 Yeah, they do. No, they don't. There's a cutoff point. They start putting that stuff in. They get a bunch of racist. They get misogyny. They get stuff that ruins the LLM. Well, the whole thing is that the LLMs as a knowledge base is dead anyway.

Starting point is 01:48:05 He doesn't even, he's behind the curve. LLMs are good at... He's a crank. In America, must play a vital role in the few of AI. What does that mean? It means that the public should have 50% of the seats on the major AI companies in order to prevent bad things from happening. You talked about mass unemployment. It is quite possible that over the next decade, tens of millions of jobs will be lost. Yeah, that's Elon's. No one will have to work. It's going to be a great world.

Starting point is 01:48:37 All Bernie Sanders sees is, yeah, socialism, universal basic income. And that money would be funneled back to citizens in the United States? Right. Right now we're talking about for a start of 5% every year. The fund, which we estimate right now would be about $7 trillion. Five percent of that would be. Where does he get this money from? I don't know.

Starting point is 01:49:02 You're asking the wrong guy. He just appeared. He somehow thinks that there's $7 trillion are going to put in. He used direct dividends to every man, woman, and child in this country, starting in the beginning to be about $1,000 per person per year. If AI is as valuable and grows as quickly as people think it might, that number will go up. In addition, you'll have a large amount of money available that makes sure that in America, every man, woman and child does health care as a human right, that we improve the education and opportunities,

Starting point is 01:49:33 we build a housing that we need. So bottom line here is we cannot allow AI just to be used to benefit the very richest people in the world. It has kind of be used to benefit all of us. What do you mean? It's 20 bucks a month. I get a chatbot. It benefits everybody. It's a beautiful thing. It's benefiting the listeners of the No Agenda show. Yeah, Book of Knowledge.

Starting point is 01:49:54 You've met with Sam Allman, CEO of Open AI. How'd that go? How'd that go? Well, I didn't understand what he was talking about. Well, I think Sam is a very good salesman. Yes. But bottom line is, it's very hard to talk

Starting point is 01:50:10 with anybody from the industry when they, they in a sense, have a gun at your head. So we can chat and chat. He's got a gun to his head? He's been checked for arms. Anybody from the industry should have been patting down. We know in a sense have a gun at your head.

Starting point is 01:50:30 So we can chat and chat. But what Sam and the other CEOs of the industry are saying, look, if you want to regulate us, If you want to protect the American people, we have endless amounts of money in super PACs to defeat you. We are very close to the President of the United States. We were his inaugural. He is a fellow oligarch, and you ain't going to do anything. And I think what we're working at right now is a grassroots movement, which is taking place.

Starting point is 01:50:58 Opposition to data centers, deep concerned about the growth of AI. We're seeing real movement in a direction that says that AI has got to work to benefit all of us and not just a few that AI cannot be used to wipe out millions of jobs where people have no place there won't be jobs available to them. So I think we are needing to. Nobody has voted for this,

Starting point is 01:51:19 which is one of these things I keep coming back to. That's the point. That's the point. Oh, wow. I appreciate it to be continued. Thank you. So, he should have been around during the invention of the steam engine

Starting point is 01:51:30 if he wants to see something replacing workers. It's Jevin's dilemma, man. We all know. Vance is up there now defending the difference between Obama's deal and Trump's deal. Is Vance at the tower? No, no. No, Obama's still at the party. He's speaking now.

Starting point is 01:51:53 He's at the party. He's wagging his finger. Vance is using both hands like he's doing a shit, like he's stroking something really big. And he's at the White House in the press room. Vance uses his hands too much. He does. He's a little bit like. Newsom. But Vance keeps his hands in the zone. He doesn't move on out. Yeah, he doesn't go all over the

Starting point is 01:52:14 map with him. You're right. He doesn't go all over the map with his hands. Yeah. All right. Well, beautiful. We've solved most of the world's problems here. I feel much better about everything. Well, they're good. I got to clip that maybe it'll depress you. Okay. Well, probably, maybe it won't. This is kissing in Colorado. Kissing in Colorado. Okay. Well, I can't believe I'm about to say this, but a high school teacher in Colorado was just terminated because she had skits in her classroom. And in those skits, she required students to kiss each other, many of them being the same sex and felt really uncomfortable. And if they didn't do it, she would fit them. According to the investigation, students were assigned roles in French language skits titled the Boring Kiss.

Starting point is 01:52:59 Several students alleged that they were expected to kiss classmates as part of the performance. One student refused and received a zero on their grade and another walked out. Now, the teacher says she never forced anyone to kiss one another. She did say you could blow a kiss or do a gesture. But no one's really buying that answer. See, the issue isn't just whether students were physically forced to kiss one another. The issue is that this teacher put these students in a position where they had to decide in front of their classmates and under the authority of their teacher. Who controlled their grades, whether they were comfortable participating in what a judge described as a personal and sexualized activity.

Starting point is 01:53:32 Why is kissing required in any high school assignment? And that was not the only concern. were allegations that the teacher shared deeply personal details about her life with the students, including discussions about abuse, infertility, and suicidal thoughts. There were no criminal charges that were filed, but the district did conclude that the environment did cross work professional boundaries. A foreign language class should be teaching French, not putting teenagers in situations where they feel pressured to kiss one another because of a great...

Starting point is 01:54:01 Oh, go Colorado. Yeah, they're advanced in Colorado there. forced kissing. I have a gripe, man. Tina and I have been looking, because we've watched all the series we want to watch and, you know, we're scanning around on...

Starting point is 01:54:16 Yeah, you're on this one thing, Dutton Ranch seems to be your thing now. Yeah, but it's, you know, it's once a week, so we have to wait. Oh, no. Yeah, I know, it's back to the old days. There's no more binging. And so, you know,

Starting point is 01:54:30 there's a whole bunch of new series on Netflix and Amazon and every single series, particularly the comedy, every single one, has got to have gay guys making out. It's... Gay guys making out? Yeah, kissing. I haven't seen this.

Starting point is 01:54:50 Long kissing sequences of gay guys. I haven't seen it on Fox. No, I said Amazon and Prime. Amazon and Netflix, not Fox. Oh, oh. No, Fox wouldn't do that. And I know it's Pride Month, but, yeah. It's disgusting, it's, it's disgusting you.

Starting point is 01:55:11 Why don't you just say it? Yeah, it is. I don't want to see it. And it's just like, yeah, a lot of people don't. But it's, and the writing is funny? Is there funny shows? Well, the writing is funny? But there's always gratuitous gay guy kissing.

Starting point is 01:55:26 It's just, I don't understand. Is that such a necessity? Gratuitous gay guy kissing. Yes. Is that a necessity? Wow, that's the question of the year. In entertainment. Let's ask the robot.

Starting point is 01:55:42 In entertainment. Yeah, there we go. Now we're going to get a real answer. Book of Knowledge. Is gratuitous gay guy kissing a necessity for modern television series? Let's see what the Book of Knowledge comes up with now. According to the Book of Knowledge, in today's television landscape, series increasingly respond to social demands for questions.

Starting point is 01:56:11 queer representation, and it has become a focal point for the audiovisual industry. Though, whether it serves the story or merely the mandate of advocacy groups like Gillard, the gains have often been clustered on a handful of shows, demonstrating missed opportunities to tell fuller stories, suggesting it is less organic necessity and more institutional pressure. Well, there you go. Thus, it has been written. Yeah, institutional pressure.

Starting point is 01:56:40 You want to get something made? He's called a Geylat, but it's glad, I think he's talking about it. Yeah, it's institutional pressure. There you go. That's for Hollywood. Well, Hollywood, I don't think you're... Interesting. That's actually an interesting answer.

Starting point is 01:56:53 So there's institutional pressure to have gay guys kissing in front of everybody during a series because they want to normalize it. Yes. It's called programming. Yeah. In fact, it's called TV programming, to be exact. Now, they don't have gratuitous male-female kissing. Not that much. Well, you know, one of the things they've noticed that during the slowdown in birth rates

Starting point is 01:57:20 is that a lot of it, they think, sociologically, may have to do with the fact that when there was a lot of babies being born, there was a lot of TV shows that had a lot of kids on there as part of the show. They had, you know, the Leave It the Beaver show, Ozzie and Harriet, the Brady bunch and all these shows that have a children element. And it was gratuitous, children element and all these shows. And people said, well, children are kind of cool. Look at them.

Starting point is 01:57:48 They're funny. They're hanging around. Let's have a kid. But now it's like, oh, they're two gay guys kissing. Let's find a guy and go kiss him. So I think, yeah, the TV people are trying to ruin the country. I'll tell you, you're lucky you're not across me in the same room. I might have to go for you.

Starting point is 01:58:06 Yeah, well, just keep it to yourself. Hey, with that, I want to thank you for your courage. In the morning to you, the man who put the sea in the drug cows, say hello to my friend on the other end. I wish I could kiss him. John C. Yeah, in the morning to you, Mr. Adam, Kerr, any morning, I'll see some boosting raffian in the air, something in the water name is nice out there. In the morning to the trolls. It's obviously vacation.

Starting point is 01:58:38 1291. Wow. Yeah, people on vacation. Well, obviously that and the fact you couldn't get the bat signal to work. That does not help, and it's still busted. So I'm going to have to bring in the big guns somehow to publish this. That's annoying. That's terrible.

Starting point is 01:58:56 It happens. You know, it's amazing any of this stuff works, really. I'm truly amazed that we can talk to each other with almost no delay. It streams out. You know, the pod ping technology, which will work. This is just a problem on my end. I'm still trying to figure what happened to my brave browser this morning. Yeah, that's interesting.

Starting point is 01:59:17 I don't know what happened to your brain. It just didn't work, huh? Well, I booted it up, got to the show, and it says, oh, your microphone has been turned off by the browser. Please reset it. What are you talking about it? It says, check the icon at the top of the browser, the microphone icon.

Starting point is 01:59:34 There's no microphone icon on the browser. So they had, so they upgraded something for your security. They upgraded something, and now the brave browser doesn't work with Clean Feed. Well, what's bad is that you have to be on edge. That's that's that's that's atrocious. Edge is quite horrible. So the bat signal when, when applied, we'll get you your no agenda show within 90 seconds,

Starting point is 02:00:03 not just ours, but hundreds of thousands of other shows that use pod ping technology, developed over there by the crazy group of podcasting 2.0. Get a modern podcast app. Leave those legacy things aside, will you? go to podcast apps.com. Great one for, if you're on iOS, iOS, you want to try out to Castamatic. That thing is so good.

Starting point is 02:00:28 That's the French doctor makes that. He's a doctor four days a week and one day a week. He works on his podcast app, Franco. Good guy. Castamatic? Castamatic, yes. Only on Apple, but it's dynamite product. We are value for value.

Starting point is 02:00:45 Which is a very simple concept. Although difficult for people to implement, we've been doing it for 18 years, it'll be 19 years in October, and the system is thus, we give you the show. Complete, no secret things, no clubs, no behind the scenes,

Starting point is 02:01:01 no bonus episodes or bonus content. No, we just give you the full show in all its glory for you to do with, and to consume it however you want to. There's people who are, I found this out the other day. on X. Some guy says, your show hasn't arrived on YouTube music.

Starting point is 02:01:20 Like, YouTube music. We've never given our RSS feed to YouTube music. No, I do it myself. You do it yourself. Okay? So you're helping us build an audience on YouTube music. And when you go away or you get tired of it, then the show goes away for those people.

Starting point is 02:01:41 Well done. Well done. Thank you. we had three downloads on Spotify. They've deplatformed us completely due to the end of show mixes because they hear music. It's like, oh, it's music. Music must be bad. Must be bad.

Starting point is 02:01:57 Yeah, so that's not a very good platform. No, get those modern podcast app. So value for value is a concept we came up with, which you thought would be better than advertising. And many people say, oh, so good you don't advertising. You don't do ads because, you know, it keeps you clean of corporate. interests and you can't get the, you know, your money can't get taken away by the advertisers. And that's, that's, that's, that's true. But the real reason is Adam and John just didn't want to have meetings with advertisers.

Starting point is 02:02:24 Because those are the worst meetings that we don't even have meetings with ourselves. We're not into meetings. No, we just, when we see each other, we grouse. And we don't even see, we haven't seen each other in, um, five. No, if we saw each other, we'd this show would not be around. I can guarantee it. Yeah. There's not a partnership like this.

Starting point is 02:02:43 the world that's involved with entertainment in any way, shape, or form that lasts more in a few years because they just get on each other's nerves. You mentioned this to someone on X regarding Siskel and Ebert. Yeah, because they played a clip of these two guys. I met both of those guys. And both of them kind of had a little, you know, a little nothing good to say about the other guy. They really didn't like each other.

Starting point is 02:03:08 They really were irks. I think they did for a while and then they got on each other's nerves. Yeah, they had slightly different personalities. I mean, Cisco was kind of a hot, at least when I'm, I don't know him to guy, but he was hot. He's nice guy. Both the guys are terrific, by the way. But Cisco was kind of haughty and kind of looked down his nose, you know, kind of guy. And Iber was kind of a goofball and just fun guy.

Starting point is 02:03:37 Are they both? With a lot of opinions. Are they both still alive? I thought one of them. No, I think they're both dead. Yeah, because someone, the troll-rum says, Ebert's birthday, if the guy's dead, then do we celebrate his birthday?

Starting point is 02:03:47 I think he's dead. I mean, he ended with jaw cancer and they took half his face away. Oh, no, oh, no. Oh, that sucks. That's horrible. So, but yeah, we don't want meetings with each other. We certainly don't want.

Starting point is 02:04:04 And if we had to have meetings with each other with advertisers, oh, that's like a Tinder box, Tinder box. Because, you know, you'd be like, yeah, we'll do that. Yeah, whatever. We'll take the money. Not going to be that way. You would.

Starting point is 02:04:17 No, no. Oh. Mr. Cave. Here's the, here's a Cisco and Ebert sound clip. Let's see. Why is it? Why do I not hear it?

Starting point is 02:04:27 Oh, I know why. Let's do this for a second. You did. It's Thriller Week on Cisco and the Ebert at the movies, and we've got three new ones. And the movies, not at the movies. And that's why we were doing it this time. Oh. It's Thriller Week.

Starting point is 02:04:44 on Cisco and Ebert in the movies and we've got three new ones. Dennis Quaid and the Big Easy. Michael Cain in the fourth protocol. And Kevin Costner and Gene Hackman in No Way Out. That's this week on Cisco and Ebert and the movies. And the asshole. And that's right. And the asshole.

Starting point is 02:05:07 That would definitely be me. That would be me. So I'm glad. I'm glad. This is good. We have a good thing going. John, don't mess it up. Yeah, people always say, why don't you guys do?

Starting point is 02:05:21 Can you, besides that, who they, oh, I will mention this. One of the things that people don't, who just kind of inside baseball, but, but queuing each other without visceral cues, when you're in the studio together, you can look at somebody, you can, you know, raise your eyebrow. I mean, there's ways of getting people to do certain things when you're working with them in the same room to, to cue them, to bring, something up or to do something. We have to do it at a very advanced level. It has to be anticipatory. It's much more difficult to get the cues correct. And we miss them probably a few times more than we miss them usually at least once a show. But generally speaking, it's phenomenal how good we are. Don't break your arm patting yourself on the back. But yeah, many radio professionals have said to me, man, how long does it take you to edit that show?

Starting point is 02:06:19 That's a good one. I know I've heard this comment too. What? No, no, no, live to tape or nothing. We're not doing this show if it has to be edited. No, there you go. Another thing we would never do. Live to tape.

Starting point is 02:06:33 It is what you get. What you see is what you get. And what you see is one way that people help us with value for value, time, talent, or treasure. And that is creating or prompting artwork for artwork for, our album art, and we want to thank Blue Acorn for bringing us the artwork for episode 1877. We titled that flim flam, a fine word. We need to bring back into the vocabulary, into the corpus. And this was Roosevelt flipping a guy over his shoulder at the UFC, at the big fight at the White House.

Starting point is 02:07:06 It was relevant because we learned that many presidents have been into rassling, grappling and rassling. and Roosevelt apparently once flipped a senator over his shoulder. Do we even know if that is historically correct? Do we even check that? We do not know. It could be folklore. Yeah, well, it was fun anyway. So we appreciate that.

Starting point is 02:07:28 Let's take a look at the no agenda art generator, no agenda art generator.com. We'll see, were there any other things that we considered? I think you were complaining there wasn't anything any good. I know that you used the comics or blogger ideal for hydration break Polish potato vodka for the newsletter.

Starting point is 02:07:47 Jay picked that. She picked that one. Well, Jay is a good judge of art. Oh, I like the it wasn't as good as the Roosevelt thing, but I like the Noah Jenna Curry and Dvorak in the grass in front of the reflecting

Starting point is 02:08:02 pool because we had a clip about someone peeing 86, 47. It was kind of okay. A lot of, we saw those Ulster says no or those old. Those are old. Okay, those were old.

Starting point is 02:08:17 What else was this? A couple other. You're right. I kind of like Trump saying I love, you know, on the, on the White House balcony with a megaphone with a banner. I love inflation. Yeah, that was it. There wasn't much. Do better, people.

Starting point is 02:08:35 Do better. You can do better. You know, this is, what's happening here is we have a break in the dream. build loop. You got a dream and then you got to build. And if you don't have dreams, then you can't build. So the dream build loop has to be implemented here for the art. You can do it, people.

Starting point is 02:08:55 There's also a dream donate loop that is also failing. There is. Now, I think it's because of the whatever girls clips. That's my personal opinion. 50 seconds. Oh, it's not about how long. It's just the fact that we even consider it. people think we're horrible people.

Starting point is 02:09:13 Oh, I agree. I'm with you on that. I agree with you. But there are people who take time out of their day to email me. One guy. No, that's the one guy who said, please send this to John because I can't remember how to spell his name. That's one. I'm going to read the note. Oh, you have it there. Good. This is from one of our producers.

Starting point is 02:09:37 And it's Dear Adam, writing, in with an opinion instead of a fact because I think you would appreciate a measure, a measure of the pulse of your listener base. You talk about getting emails all the time where people rage, quit your show because your opinion on Israel is wrong or whatever. I'm not going to do that. I'm not going to quit the show based on your opinion because your show is one of the only shows with actual sincere, honest and interesting opinions that don't just fall in lockstep with politics. Whether you guys agree or disagree with me on some subject, I know it's sincere and I know it's at least a useful perspective. So I'm not going to get upset about it.

Starting point is 02:10:28 The follow this is to say that I'm not upset enough to stop listening, but there's always the big but. I am legitimately annoyed. I just wanted to write in to let you know, or rather to let you to let John know that in the five years that I've been listening to your podcast, the only segments I have ever skipped are the whatever girls. As a guy who's pushing 40 and hasn't been on a date in 10 years, here it comes, listening to a bunch.

Starting point is 02:11:08 This is it. This is his real problem is right here. Start that segment over again because it's not about us playing the girls. It's this. No, he's irked because of himself. This is a self-inflicted wound. As a guy who's pushing 40 and hasn't been on a date in 10 years, listening to a bunch of stupid girls who already have made, made more money than I'll make in my life does not cause enjoyment for me.

Starting point is 02:11:44 I'm just going to keep skipping that section. I'm not going to quit your show or anything. But since this is a useful data point, I thought I would write in and let you know that I might actually be affecting listener retention. I don't like that segment. and I skip it every time it comes up. And that is the only segment I have ever skipped on your show, signed the 40-year-old guy who hasn't been on a date in 10 years.

Starting point is 02:12:15 Thank you for reading that again because that part of the, it broke my heart, that part of the email. I heard that. I'm like, oh, yeah. I completely empathetically felt his pain. and I bet a lot of men are like that. You know, dating is over. It's no dating.

Starting point is 02:12:38 You know it is. There's only, it's hit the skids. It has. And it broke my heart to hear that. I'm like, oh, so his real problem is not with the segment.

Starting point is 02:12:49 And I know, you look these things up. So has he ever donated? He's, I, well, normally I do look him up. I did not look him up individually,

Starting point is 02:12:57 but I, I pretty, I wasn't, it wasn't the kind of letter where I look him up so he said, oh, he doesn't donate or doesn't care. So I didn't look him up, but I'm pretty sure he's donated. I personally think it would have been better if he sent in a donation with this note. Yeah, then we would have read it.

Starting point is 02:13:15 Yeah, even if it was. But I read it anyway, but we could have read, it would have been read guaranteed red. Oh, yeah. If it was 50 bucks, it wouldn't matter how much he don't know. Well, 50, I don't know. Yes, yes. 300 bucks would help. But that, but that, now I understand.

Starting point is 02:13:32 the real problem. The problem is that he hasn't been able to get a date for 10 years. And now he's listening to these women who I guess he would like to date them or not. I mean, I'm trying to make the connection between how

Starting point is 02:13:48 Well, I don't think he wants to date him. He's just irked that they're rich. Although, believe me, half of them aren't. I mean, it's just a random group of girls and a lot of them don't just dipshits and some of them are only fans have done. and some of them make a lot of money and some make millions.

Starting point is 02:14:05 I mean, it's a huge range of women that go on that show and a lot of people. Here's my advice. Here's my advice. You got to get one of them Darren O'Neill deals. Darren O'Neill has a deal, man. His wife works, and he does like shows. He's just podcasting. He does a rock and roll pre-show.

Starting point is 02:14:25 He does a show with Larry. Does a show with Gene? He might cook. I mean, he might cook. I don't know if he cooks. And if he could, people who could always brag about it. But the Darren O'Neill deal, that's, I'd like that. I'd like a Darren O'Neill deal.

Starting point is 02:14:39 That'd be fantastic. Can you imagine? You'd love it too. Imagine Mimi was bringing in all the dough? Well, that dog kennel, though, you should franchise that. The dog kennel. Yeah, we should. We have a reason.

Starting point is 02:14:53 The problem is, it's a, it's a personnel situation. The only reason the dog kennel works so well is because we, it's like an Elon Musk, We're lucked out and got a guy that's a lunatic about dogs, and, you know, you can run that kennel. I mean, that's the hardest thing in the world is still personnel. Yeah. And what is the kennel index? Is it full?

Starting point is 02:15:15 It's always full. The thing's always full. Oh, you know, no, I mean, you're full in the way where it's overloaded where it's probably full. Yeah, I'm guessing. Check it. We need to understand. We should just blow it up and we get more money into the show. Darren is telling me in 31 years.

Starting point is 02:15:31 my wife has made about 10 meals. There you go. But maybe they eat out a lot like you. We eat home all the time. You're always... You're always saying, you got any dinners, any dinners coming up? Any dinners coming up? Yeah, I'm always saying that.

Starting point is 02:15:50 So here's a story. I got a story for you. Because you go out to dinner with these local famous people, and they usually have some inside scoop for us. So here's a story. You want a story? You want a fun story of Fredericksburg? I'm always looking for a Fredericksburg story.

Starting point is 02:16:09 Lighten, livens my day. So the Fredericksburg ladies, there's two of them. And they're both in their 80s. And they are like whippersnappers. And these women are fantastic. I love them. They're funny. They're kind of, you know, borderline.

Starting point is 02:16:30 Whippersnappers specifically refers to a young person. But they're, okay, what, if you have an 85 year old who is just hilarious and sharp, a bit like you, hilarious and sharp, only a woman, only woman. What do you, what, how do you describe that woman? They got spry. No, it's more than that. They're still wearing blue jeans. Lively.

Starting point is 02:16:49 They're wearing blue jeans that they wore when they were 18. They're tight. And they're funny. And both their husbands are billionaires. So there's this group of women, like six of them. and they're always doing birthday parties for each other. Oh, my goodness. The birthday parties.

Starting point is 02:17:06 Because it's always who's invited. It's like middle school. Anyway. So, and I'm leaving the names out because I just protect the internet. It sounds like Palm Beach, but continue. No, it's not at all like Palm Beach. You wouldn't, you would never know that they're rich. You would never know.

Starting point is 02:17:26 But how you find out is when one of the two billionaires, lady said, hey, let's all go to the house in Vail. So that's a clue, right? It's a clue. Yeah, kind of. We'll meet you at the airport Tuesday at 1030. And this is a little airport here, the one where I take off from. I drive up there. There is a Cessna Citation, Excelsior, XLS.

Starting point is 02:17:57 like a $20 million airplane. Net jets. Everyone's driving up to the plane. You know, it's like top notch. They had to pre-order their lunch for on the plane. I've never been in a plane. Maybe once. And so, and I was like, this is pretty awesome.

Starting point is 02:18:17 Of course, dudes weren't invited. And so they jet off to Vail. The very next day, what happens with net jets? the very same plane crashes and burns in Laredo. First accident net jets has ever had in their history. And now they're all like, should we drive home? I'm like, no, no, no. The chances of that happening are impossibly small.

Starting point is 02:18:49 So there's the rich lady story. This is rich white lady problems. Shall I take the net jets home? or shall we have the Bentley drive us home? There's your story. Yeah, that would have been good if you had some clips to go with it. If I had the clip of the Blanco Lario Channel, or Captain Steve explains what happened.

Starting point is 02:19:14 I will say, I think that the pilots on that net jets, they did a great job with that emergency landing. I don't know what happened to the aircraft. We probably won't know for a while. but they rode that thing all the way down onto the highway. Six passengers or six people, one perished, sadly, but to have five people survive, a crash of that magnitude? Amazing.

Starting point is 02:19:35 Those guys did a great job. I mean, it sucks, but I'd like to know what happened. This is not the kind of plane that should have that happen. Anyway, no billionaires here, and not for a long time, but we do have many people who love our show and probably are dating, or maybe they're not. I don't know. And they love supporting us. And they do that with the treasure of the time, talent, and treasure.

Starting point is 02:19:58 And now we have an entire family, the Milligan family. And they come in with $1,000. They even added the fees. So it's $1,000, $1,030, and 26 cents. And as you know, above $300, not only are we guaranteed to read your note, but we'll also give the producer, executive producer credit, which is good anywhere. Hollywood recognizes these credits.

Starting point is 02:20:21 That's IMDB.com. $200 or more, associate executive producer. And so they're also going to be, well, they have a whole note here. This is for a red knight order of the heart. Bob. Can I interrupt you? Yeah. There's only 10 slots left.

Starting point is 02:20:38 Oh, okay. It's ending. All right. Very good. Wow. Because we're out of pins. We are. We're going to be out of pins after 10 more red nights.

Starting point is 02:20:46 It's all over. So the Milligan family, they're from Elko, Nevada. Bob celebrates this June his post-C-A-B-G cabbage heart surgery. It says 9th birthday of his post-cabage heart surgery. 70th post-Utero trip around the sun this Juneteenth. His 46 Father's Day and 47th wedding anniversary. Wow. He feels honored that the federal government has created

Starting point is 02:21:19 a holiday in his honor. And we are formally requesting the peerage committee to grant his night name of Sir Coach Bob the Builder, Lord of Wild Horse and Slayer of Fish. I think that one's available. If Lord is deemed unacceptable, we humbly request Master. I'm okay with Lord. Are you okay with Lord? Lord of Wild Horse?

Starting point is 02:21:44 Yeah, sure. Yeah. His family humbly requests in his honor, home brew, logger, and smoke. trout for the round table. That's what that smell is. And the Reverend Al mix up with a goat scream, as they always crack him up. In addition to his red knighting, he also requests a healthy deduishing. Oh, let me get the de-duching machine. You've been deduished. As he has been a man overboard for not donating in a long time. This is from his wife Kelly of 47 years, his kids, Jake, Becky, and Matt, their spouses, and nine grandchildren. He can thank his sons for hitting him in the

That's our new one. That's our new one. It's also Milligan, not Mulligan.

I could tell many stories of how you've helped me over the years, but I don't want to make this too long, so I'll just share one.

Starting point is 02:29:47 You used to say that your goal is to make us sound smart around the water fountain. Water cooler, yes. When I was in vet school, we had a class about animal breeding and selection. The professor was telling us that many companies do this and ask if anyone knew what Monsanto was. After controlling the urge to sing the Monsanto jingle, I went into an expose of Monsanto, Roundup, and how they were suing farmers. Every head in the room turns toward me with a WTF, or how the heck does he know this? look on their face.

Starting point is 02:34:34 For my Ukraine meetup report. So sad we haven't received that yet. I just want some audio from Ukraine before, you know, Putin nukes it. It would be nice. In the meantime, there are meetups taking place all over the world. In fact, today there's one taking up, taking place in Ed's Tavern, Charlotte, North Carolina. It is the Charlotte's Thursday Thursday meetup, 7 o'clock tonight. On Saturday, Leo Bravo does it again.

What's it called? The Mallard Club, it's a bar.

Starting point is 02:35:26 I thought it was the Pizza Place. We're doing it at the Mallard Club, as far as I know. Well, what was the pizza place? Violetas. Oh, it's the Mallard Club. The Mallard Club sounds like, It sounds like it's a lot of wood. There's a lot of wood in the mallard clothes?

Starting point is 02:35:40 Yeah, in fact, it's fashion after a hunting lodge. It's like a little hunting lodge inside. Yeah, nice. Unfortunately, depending on the bartender, if it's dimly lit, you don't really appreciate the coolness of it being a hunting lodge. If they get a bartender lights it up, it's pretty cool. My opinion is whenever you're over 50, dimmed lighting is. best. So I'm kind of all for that. Well, that's what they do. They keep it dim. But believe me,

Starting point is 02:36:14 the place is nicer if it's lit. On the 28th, Decatur, Alabama, nice, Longview, Texas.

Until then, adios, mophos, a hooey, hooey, and such. The media spins the wheel thin. Truth gets rinsed in the spin till the facts congealed in.

Starting point is 02:45:41 No legend that cuts the real. Exposes the seal within. From the homer's vein, cracking open with the claws that twists. Israel left angling while the red disruptor insists. G7 in the Alps, posing in the high altitude mist. Trade threats on the grapes while the mineral chains resist. Rare earth scramble.

Starting point is 02:46:02 The East grips, the master switch. G7 dreams of ensuring, but the leverage stays in the ditch. Bama from the old guard Took the desert runway dive Eight lives Plain with modernization Medit is gravity job Media brushes piece with the spin

Starting point is 02:46:13 That keeps the proxies alive We slice through the varnish With the formula sharpest knife The deconstruction play that keeps The narrative in checks The surface stories But the undercrumbens What weep the tag

Starting point is 02:46:23 Elites toast and luxury While the fine prints stays intact No agenda formula Turns the flim flam Into direct Skim the cycle Where the media spins

Starting point is 02:46:35 The wheel pin Truth gets rinsed in the spin to the facts can gill in. No agenda because the real exposes the seal within. If it resonates deep and the signal feels real within. Drop the bag for value. Producers keep the wheel and spin.

Starting point is 02:46:53 No agenda thrive when you feed what feed your skin. If it slaps, then drop it in. Global garbage mandate. Salute the crew. Two dudes, two mics and a podcast. That's true. No corporate check, no advertiser strings. Just value for value.

Starting point is 02:47:32 Value. That's the game we bring. On Thursday, Sunday, he'll call out your pop. Don't need any amount. Watch the shoutouts drop. 50 a more in your name hits the mic under that anonymous. Old school, that's right. Stripe a PayPal.

Starting point is 02:47:47 Pick your poison, pick your lane. On melon check your Elserrito in the rain. Bitcoin lightning on chain scan the cold night. Hood lay away. In your month, that's the road. Value for value. No agenda, no lies. Don't hate a little, watch your name in the skies.

Starting point is 02:48:02 Garbage bags out. Recycling the news. Curry and evorax. Pouring po-inch potato juice. Drop knowledge, get your hydration break. Poe inch but are in the mixed. Pakistan watching 60 days of politics. 12-mum hidden since the year 800.

Starting point is 02:48:22 Some hard line of scheming want the whole influences be planning that attack. But that's deep law for a Thursday afternoon. No agenda breaks it down before the next month. Untooned bisexual sponges scrubbing both ways Little was clearly hung over posting wild stuff woke up under the cover fake tweets claim in the president's demise Phantom chef screenshots believe your own eyes if a crit of the wheat that's the segment they run no agenda means no filter just call out everyone value for value No agenda no lies don't eat a little watch a name in the skies garbage bags out recycling the news curry and devourak pouring bowl-ish potato juice

Starting point is 02:49:05 deconstruct the narrative peel back the sheen uncovering the M5M hidden in between no corporate gatekeepers pulling on the thread we build this architecture out of what is said but a decentralized world requires an arc to keep the signal beaming we need an earmark

Starting point is 02:49:31 donate your time your talent your treasure a triptych of devotion that no metric can measure value for value flowing backward to the source crack a pot and bus kill

Starting point is 02:49:45 leading of course time talent and treasure time talent and treasure fuel the transmission time talent and treasure mopo
