1784 - "Yakcasting"

Cowabunga, Adam Curry, John C.

Dvorak.

It's Thursday, July 24th, 2025.

This is your award-winning Gimmo Nation Media Assassination Episode 1784.

This is no agenda.

Waiting for number three.

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.

And from Northern Silicon Valley, where we're all sick and tired of people making that stupid heart symbol with their hands.

I'm John C.

Dvorak.

It's Craig Bottom Boskill in the morning.

You seem a little low energy today.

Oh, well, liven it up.

Yeah.

Liven it up, man, because, you know, before you know it, you're the third.

No.

No.

There's already three.

No.

Who was number one?

We had.

Malcolm Jamal Warner.

Oh, you're right.

Malcolm Jamal Warner and Hulk Hogan and Ozzy Osborne.

That makes three.

You're right.

Number theory is confirmed.

Well, this does give us a unique opportunity since we have more than one.

Ladies and gentlemen, the No Agenda In Memoriam segment.

I went back into the VHS archives

because in show business, you get to say,

yeah, I worked with him.

Don't you have that?

You're like, oh yeah, no, I work with him.

Great guy.

Big fan of his work.

Big fan.

Big fan of his work.

Yeah.

So

we first, I have two clips.

We go back to 1988 to the plane ride to Moscow known as the Magic Bus or the Get Doc McGee out of jail free trip.

Here's Adam interviewing Ozzy.

Headbangers Ball continues from the Magic Bus on our way to the Soviet Union and no strangers to the ball, of course, Ozzy and Zach.

Guys, good to have you aboard.

Well, are we aboard?

It's like a flying madhouse.

Are we actually flying?

Is the question I haven't checked recently?

I don't know what the pilot's doing up there, but his flying's on automatic.

I hope it's on automatic pilot because I hope no humans are.

I thought you were flying it.

I think I was at one point.

So, you just finished up the complete world tour?

Yeah, I just did

13 months.

We're doing these two shows in Moscow, and then we're up for about a month or so, and then I start writing the recording and all.

I understand Pete Town is in one of the back closes in a sound through the booth.

Ozzy, we're going to take a look at breaking all the rules.

Anything you want to say about the video?

Oh, it was a lot of fun making it.

Yes, yes.

In-depth questions during this interview.

Ozzy, was it fun making the video, Ozzy?

I had every single rock radio station in America call me yesterday.

Hey, man, hey, you work with Ozzy, right?

What was he really like?

Oh, man, we had such good times together.

But then, then, oh no, we have Hulk Hogan.

71 is definitely too early.

And I was able to retrieve from 1993

the infamous rocket car of death during Circus of the Stars as Hulk Hogan and Adam Curry worked together and loved each other's work.

Big fans, big fans.

Hi, I'm Hulk Hogan here at Universal Studios, Florida, where Adam Curry thought he was taking a break from music videos.

However, we're putting him right back into MTV, and that stands for Mucho Terrifying Vehicle.

He'll take the ride of his life in a 600-pound rocket car.

Traveling at roller coaster speed, he'll be catapulted into space, dropping 50 feet on his way to a fiery, frightening crash landing.

Are you ready, Rocket Man?

Yeah!

Mucho

terrifying.

Everybody, let's begin the countdown.

Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four,

three,

two, one, one.

Wow, is he okay?

I can't see.

Don't see anything.

Adam, how'd you like to see what we just saw you do in slow motion, dude?

Yeah, let's take a look at it, Gray.

Oh, what a ride that was.

That fire was so hot.

Oh,

that's where I got the headache from.

Man,

MTV's macho, terrific, terrific wonderful Adam Curry

and there'll be more circus fun coming up right after this right after these messages

you got roller coaster speeds

yeah I don't know well yeah it was it was roller coaster roller coasters very average about 45 miles an hour it's very terrifying John in my rocket car of death you should post that video it's on YouTube no it's on the YouTubes yeah

1993 Circus of the Stars with my co-host, Deirdre Hall.

Boy, I've come a long way.

Yeah.

Have you kept in touch?

Have I kept in touch?

At least Hulk Hogan will go to heaven.

We know that.

That's a good.

I don't know about Ozzy.

You know, all those rock guys, I wonder if they weren't very faithful.

He was always wearing crucifixes.

People think that just because.

I don't know.

Anyway, that is our in-memoriam segment for today's No Agenda show.

No Agenda, not

one of the top 100

most influential podcasts, according to Time magazine, in history.

There's not 10.

10 what?

There's not 10.

I'd say if you name 10 10

influentials, it's not that easy for me to say,

influential podcasts, there's not really 10.

Well, they didn't have

let alone 100.

And the fact that we're not on the list of 100 shows that they don't know what they're talking about.

This is just one of those lists.

I've talked about it before.

You're an editor.

You had a magazine.

Here we go.

You just sit around during lunch and you just throw names out there.

They didn't have Joe Rogan on the list?

What?

I know.

No, that's not true.

Yes, it's true.

It's true.

Wait, so they named 100 most influential podcasts.

No, no, I'm sorry.

100 best podcasts of all time.

Let me hear.

The most innovative, influential, and informative listens in the history of the medium.

These podcasts reflect the psychological.

Wait, stop, stop, stop.

They called you, obviously, to get some input, right?

I'm looking at my voicemail.

No.

These podcasts reflect the depth, breadth, and possibility of the medium at its best.

And they do have a whole page on how they chose them.

With lies.

I can assure you.

Well, the thing is, like, the No Agenda Show transcends all this.

The top 100

best podcast of all time,

that's below us.

We are the best podcast in the universe.

So, you know, no wonder.

Well, since you have this list in front of you, I didn't even know this was going on, of course.

Please read the list.

Oh, okay.

Or at least

the top 10.

Well, what they did is they have it.

Well, they have, okay, all.

All right, the top 10.

Let's see.

All.

Top 10.

Okay.

At the top of the list, so they have it by category, all comedy and fiction sports.

I'm going to click all.

Okay.

The first one, I don't know if it's a number ranking.

The first one.

is...

Whether they're just

a pile of podcasts?

A pile?

That's a show title.

A pile of podcasts.

A pile of podcasts.

That should be our list.

Here, before you play that, play my clip on podcasting.

Oh, wait.

Uh-oh.

Uh-oh.

I didn't even see your clip on podcasting.

In the UK, that one?

Yeah, podcasts in the UK.

Oh, mate.

I've found out what's been causing all the noise.

It's not good news, I'm afraid.

It's not an infestation, is it?

You've got podcasters, mate i've got podcasters

who cares about new beatles music like do you know what i mean podcasters yeah well neckcasta spellendi technical latin yeah nasty

scatter

what is that funny it was just them they swarm look bro it is like you cannot say anything jesus christ they're everywhere yeah what am i listening to You're listening to two guys who have discovered that there's podcasters under the everywhere in the UK and there's an infestation.

It's an infestation

in London, it.

I mean, you're never more than 10 feet away from a podcaster.

Don't tell me that, that freaks me out.

But how do you get rid of them?

Like, have you got some kind of chemical you can use to exterminate them or something?

No, you can't kill them, mate.

That's murder, is it?

Technically, they're humans.

And if you were a murderer, and then you get the true crime podcasters in, and they're bloody trickier shift.

But how do I get rid of them then?

I mean, what do we use?

Ah, the thing that podcasters fear the most.

What's that?

Substance.

So, the Achilles ill of a podcaster is hard work.

You show them a bit of hard work, they have free counts.

Or just spray them with water.

Sometimes that does the trick.

What?

Bro.

All right, back to the list.

We could have done without that, I think.

It might have looked better on your TikTok video.

It did.

It did, yes.

So the top of the list, just clicking the all category, is the inimitable two dope queens.

I'm sorry, what?

Two Dope.

I want you to read from the list.

I don't know what you're talking about.

This is the top one on the list.

The podcast.

The top podcast, according to Time magazine, is Two Dope Queen.

Queens.

This is the number one on the list.

They don't have it by number.

They just have them in order.

So Two Dope Queens is the number one you see on their top 100 best podcasts of all time.

Have you ever listened to this podcast?

No.

It's from WNYC Studios in New York, so that means quality.

The second one I see on the list is 3430.

Now, surely you've heard this podcast.

It's a critically acclaimed ESPN documentary series.

No?

The next one is...

Oh,

I watched ESPN.

I never heard of it.

99% Invisible.

Now, you've heard of it.

No, it's 3430, the 3430.

Yes, 3430.

Oh, yeah.

They do that.

That's actually a TV show.

Oh, okay.

99%.

Not a podcast.

99% Invisible is the next one I see on the list.

I've heard of that.

The next one is Acquired.

Every company has a story, and this is brought to you by JP.

Ooh, that should be really good.

That should be a grabber.

Brought to you by JP Morgan Investments.

Nothing.

Yeah, I can see that one being top.

Anyway, I think you get the idea.

No, I mean, there's more.

I mean, okay.

The next one is Armchair Expert.

That's Dak Shepard.

He's quite famous.

People, he has celebrity guests on, like Brad Pitt

and Prince Harry.

And then Articles of Interest follows that.

I've never heard of that one.

Bear Brook, a true crime story, is next on the list.

It's about time.

Anyway,

my ex-timeline ex-timeline is quite hilarious.

Dude, you got robbed.

You got robbed.

Yeah.

You got robbed, man.

The money they gave these podcasts to be on the list is outrageous.

Well, it's funny you bring that up because I caught a story this morning.

Hold on a second.

About,

well, not really about podcasters.

but more about

YouTube channels.

This was quite outrageous.

people buying them off.

Yeah, no, listen to this.

If you spend long enough on YouTube, there's now a very good chance that a substantial share of your watch time is going to channels partially or fully owned by private equity.

Major firms operating in this space have raised billions of dollars collectively from companies like SoftBank, Amazon, Disney, Goldman Sachs, and Blackstone, and they are using that money to acquire YouTube channels as strategic investments.

Some of these names should be familiar to you: Task and Purpose, Veritasium, Donut Media, Simple History, Fern, Fireship, Economics Explained, Mentor, Pilot, Futurism, Astrom, The Drive, and History Hits have all publicly been acquired by private equity.

Outside of the nerd corner of YouTube, some of the biggest names in the space, including Cocomelon, Colin and Samir, The Theoris, and Dude Perfect, have also all partially or completely been acquired.

I think we're next.

There's our exit strategy, private equity.

That's the way to go.

I'm surprised shoe on head isn't on the list.

You know what they're going to do?

Like all private equity, they'd come in, they'd buy us,

they'd buy us, then they'd sell off the parts.

You'd be sold off to China.

I don't know where I'd go.

They'll sell off the parts of it.

And then before you know, it'll be like, no agenda with Darren O'Neill.

It's Darren O'Leary here, everybody.

Yep, we are, we're, we're advisors to this private equity fund.

Then, uh, guess what?

Here we are.

Pretty amazing.

Not quite as amazing as what is in future.

I'm on a roll here.

What is in future store for podcasters who think they can say anything?

This is, of course, referring to the lawsuit against Candace Owens.

Yeah.

Filed by...

Emmanuel and Bob.

Bob Macron Brothers.

Emmanuel and Bob McCrone.

Look at the Macron Brothers.

You stole my punchline.

That's better than the one I had.

Jake Tapper talks to the lawyer leading the suit.

This is actually mildly interesting.

So the lawsuit claims that this has been a year-long campaign by Candace Owens.

Why are the Macron's suing now?

Like, what changed?

Why sue now?

Well, this is really a last resort.

We have intended to engage with her for the last year, putting evidence in front of her.

Evidence.

Request request after request after request, that she just simply do the right thing.

This is not a legal thing.

Do the right thing, tell the truth, stop spreading these lies.

And each time we've done that, she mocked the Macron's.

She mocked our efforts to set the record.

She refused to

retract what she had said.

She started a merch campaign.

She's selling t-shirts, mocking, and celebrating her defamation of them.

And enough is enough.

It was time to hold her accountable for this campaign.

So your lawsuit alleges, quote, every time the Macrones leave their home, they do so knowing that countless people have heard and many believe these vile fabrications.

It is invasive, dehumanizing, and deeply unjust.

Some people out there might think, really, the first couple of France can't leave their home in France

without worrying that France of all people, the gayest of all countries, will believe the deranged nonsense from this American podcaster.

Yeah,

what people don't really believe is.

Hold on a second.

Who does Tapper think he is here?

What kind of reporting is that?

It's great reporting.

Come on, this is the stuff we listen to.

Deranged podcaster.

Exactly.

Really, the first couple of France can't leave their home in France without worrying that people believe the deranged nonsense from this American podcaster?

Yeah,

what people don't really understand, and a lot of people can go on TV and talk about the president, talk about the first lady, you know, pundits can get on and talk about them.

But what people forget is this, these are human beings.

These are a married couple.

They have a social life.

They have a private life together.

They have the same feelings and the same hurt from these sorts of defamatory statements as anybody would.

And it does have a material impact on them.

It is,

you know, it's incredibly upsetting to have this said year after year.

And this sort of

falsehood is a cancer.

And it metastasizes into, obviously, the media, but it also metastasizes into other circles that they're running in.

They get asked about it, of course, even in the circles that they run in.

They get asked about these campaigns, and they shouldn't have to go through that.

Hey, can I ask you about, Brigitte, can I ask you about this campaign?

Can you show me, do you have a RUD?

Is it RUD or no RUD?

Tell us what's going on.

Now, there is some wisdom in here.

And we have been very careful, you in particular, because there are certain things that just aren't protected under free speech in the United States.

After we put facts and information in front of her, black and white, multiple times.

What?

Like her birthday, like the First lady's birth certificate?

Like what kind of fact?

We know what we want.

We know the way you can prove it.

It's real simple.

Certificate?

Like, what kind of fact?

Yeah, we have laid out extensive evidence in our complaint demonstrating that she was born a woman, she's always been a woman, and the allegations of CIA control conspiracy and incest and all the other things.

Candace did go pretty far with the MK Ultra stuff.

Are demonstrably false?

Putting aside the fact that they are all inherently implausible.

What you said at the outset is obviously really important.

In our system, if you're making an inherently implausible allegation, the standard is higher.

You have to come forward with better evidence if you're going to say it.

She has none of it.

All she's done is mocked them and ridiculed them and repeated it.

Yeah, and of course, this now hits home as well because you know you got to be careful what you say about Big Mike.

There are a bunch of these hate mongers out there that have been saying the same thing about Michelle Obama, the former First Lady of the United States.

Do you think she should sue?

Well, I haven't looked at her claim, but I believe that everybody has a right to their reputation.

And I think our Constitution makes that very clear.

Defamation is not protected by the First Amendment.

And if it's impacting Michelle Obama or anybody else, they have a right to access our court system and have a trial.

In our system, that's the way we determine truth or falsity.

We do it in court.

We do it with rules.

We do it with legal standards.

And it's a place where evidence matters.

And that's why we've taken Candace to court where we can actually have a trial on the truth.

She's doubling down on this, which is pretty amazing.

Well, there's one reason she's doubling down, which I'm sure Tapper didn't mention.

Ratings, viewers, money.

Two court cases in France.

They sued two different journalists and they lost.

Oh, did they now?

Yeah.

Was it on the same grounds?

Was it pretty much, but again, the laws, the way they handle defamation in France may be different.

And

you have to ask yourself, how is this defamation?

Well,

it's mean.

It's definitely mean.

It's mean.

Well, I mean, the same way that Alex Jones defamed the parents of Sandy Hook, and this is actually the guy who did that case.

You're asking for punitive damages.

How much money do you want?

And do you want her to...

Oh, wait, no, I think he was the

ally.

He was the Fox News Dominion voting machine case.

To apologize.

Well, we'd love an apology, of course.

A court can't order her to apologize.

and based on her conduct, especially today, we don't expect her to do anything other than double down.

We'll put forward our damage claim at trial, but if she continues to double down between now and the time of trial, it'll be a substantial award.

Well, can you give me an idea?

Are we talking of, I mean, the last time you were involved in something, the settlement was $787.5 million.

That was Fox News for their many, many lies.

Fox News about Dominion software.

Fox News.

Fox News.

But

are you looking for that kind of settlement?

She doesn't have $787.5 million.

Well, you look at what happened with Alex Jones.

Juries understand.

Juries understand that there is an inherently large value to somebody's reputation.

And if you're going to say these vile things and if you're going to repeat them to a significant audience, as she has, she has over 5 million followers.

And her lies have metastasized into actual publications.

So we see other publications that pick up on it and they report on it.

And when you ask them, when we reached out to them and say, what's your basis for this?

They point back to her.

Yeah.

Candace Owens, the voice of truth.

Yeah.

Well, I'm sure she also got the material from the French journalists.

Yeah, she, I think she lost up out of the blue.

I think she got a lot of it from the French cases, yeah.

And so she's just, you know, but even just being sued.

And they just throw it back at them.

So they can't.

I don't think.

But even being sued is a costly affair.

It's annoying.

Yeah, but it depends on the value of the publicity.

Hmm.

How do you determine that value?

If, well,

I'm not interested in being sued, so I don't care.

But can we now sue listeners?

Also, a pain in the ass.

Hey, can we sue listeners over defamation?

You suck.

I'm suing you.

We've got your troll name.

We'll find you.

We'll hunt you down.

Yeah.

Well, nothing is as funny as that.

Troll name.

Yes, the defendant goes by troll name, Blue Douche 33.

Blue Deuce.

33.

Get it right.

It's not just any old Blue Douche.

Nothing was funnier this week.

It was a lot of funny.

Nothing was funnier than President Trump's statement on drug prices.

This is amazing.

I mean,

you love percentages.

Get a load of this.

It'll be numbers that nobody can even imagine.

We're going to get the drug prices down, not 30 or 40%, which would be great not 50 or 60 no we're going to get them down

one thousand percent six hundred percent five hundred percent fifteen hundred percent

numbers that are not even thought to be achievable because they're not because they're not used to certain talent that i know

a thousand percent they're gonna pay you That's what's happening here, ladies and gentlemen.

They're gonna pay you to get swelling between your genitals and your anus.

Yeah, a thousand percent.

Dude, to drop, yeah, yeah,

yeah, that's pretty silly.

That's great.

That's fantastic.

It's fantastic.

You know,

we joke about that, but you remember that.

Um, I can't remember the name of the drug that we had on the on the past show.

I don't know what drug, what did you take?

No, it's not, it's not what I took.

With the with the swelling taint as one of the uh

one of the side effects a dangerous swelling of the taint oh that's the you played the clip it was the after the uh the side effects clip yeah so that but that seems to be a thing now with all the with all drugs listen to this jardiance commercial I have type 2 diabetes but I manage it well it's a little pill with a big story to tell you

Jardiance at each day start

as time went on, it was easy to see.

I'm lowering my A1C.

And for adults with type 2 diabetes and known heart disease, Jardians can lower the risk of cardiovascular deaths, too.

Serious side effects include increased ketones in blood or urine, which can be fatal.

Stop Jardians and call your doctor right away if you have nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, tiredness, trouble breathing, or increased ketones.

Jardians may cause dehydration that can suddenly worsen kidney function and make you feel dizzy, lightheaded, or weak upon standing.

Genital yeast infections in men and women, urinary tract infections, low low blood sugar, or a rare life-threatening bacterial infection between and around the anus and genitals can occur.

Hmm.

I need to get me some.

This is not good.

My favorite one is the swelling of the tongue.

Call your doctor immediately.

And hello, doctor.

Oh, man.

Oh, man.

Oh, man.

Oh, man.

We're living in a crazy world.

Crazy world.

So I have a series of clips I want to get out of the way.

Okay.

Because these are the clips

from the Jimmy Kimmel show.

And this is surprising to me.

Wait a minute.

You are one of the people watching the Jimmy Kimmel show?

I did in this case.

And I continue to watch because Kimball seems to have disappeared and he went to do Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?

I don't think he's going to do the show anymore.

Wait a minute, wait a minute.

He's not been on the show?

No.

For how long?

I don't know how long it's been, but this is...

It's pretty bad when you don't show up on your own show and no one notices.

Well,

no noticed a couple of things, and it really surprises me because I think Fox would be all over this.

Because Alan Cummings came on, gay as hell.

Wait, who is Alan Cummings?

Alan Cumming is the guy who's in a lot of movies.

He plays straight characters, but he's been in movies.

If you took a look at his picture, just look him up, Alan Cumming.

You'll recognize him immediately.

Oh, I know him.

Wasn't he James Bond?

I think he was in that.

Wasn't he a James Bond villain?

He was.

He played the maniac that has something to do with Goldeneye.

He's a comedian.

I didn't realize.

Well, he's not.

Oh, okay.

Hence, he's hosting the show.

Makes nothing but sense.

I think maybe he thinks he's a comedian, but so he comes out.

He's dressed as the gayest flamer you can imagine.

And I use that term advisedly.

And he lectures, and he scolds the audience for one thing or another.

But this was went on.

I have short clips.

They're all because I had to cut him down because there was so much hooting and hollering that the audience was so jacked of them.

Yeah, but they're all the timing.

Look at the time.

Oh, okay.

Except for one of them.

All right, all right.

15 seconds, 10 seconds.

Okay.

All right.

Good.

Good.

And

they're short because they're also worth commenting on each one.

He comes out and just rails against Trump, rails against everything.

He

represents the Democratic Party, goes on and on about how queers should be respected more and on and on and on.

It was horrible.

And nobody at Fox picked this up, noticing that Kimmel went to do Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?

That's who he's the host of now.

And

then the second, then the next day,

this lesbian becomes the host

Of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?

No, of Kimmel.

Of the Kimmel show.

Kimmel's on Who Wants to be a Millionaire.

That's where we're going to go.

You said the next day this lesbian becomes the host.

Yeah, the next day the lesbian comes on the Kimmel show

to do her thing.

And she's actually,

and she comes out as she's a diesel dyke, to use the term, advisedly.

And she comes out in a man's suit, and she looks a little like

Cole Meany, I think is his name, the Irish actor with the curly hair that looks almost identical to him.

She has kind of a masculine voice, and she

does her couple of lesbian jokes, but she's actually good as a host.

She could take over the show, and I think it would be fine because it would be a real twist.

But this is Disney telling

Trump to screw himself.

And this ABC and Disney telling Trump to get screwed.

And listen to this Cummings clips.

Here we go.

Good evening, America.

I am Alan Cumming, your traitorous host for the evening.

And also the first person to host Jimmy Kimmel Live, who has never actually appeared on the show as a guest.

I know, it's weird, right?

Yes, they just.

Is he Irish?

Is that his gig here?

He's Irish.

Scottish.

And the giveaway is that he's never appeared on the show.

They drug him up, saying, Look, who can we get the most insulting guy we can to scold the audience,

scold the Trump administration?

Okay.

They never asked me.

I feel now that I am a bit like the best man's speech at a wedding, and I have not been invited to the actual wedding, but I will gladly shag the bridesmaids and the groomsmen.

I'll be here all night.

Now, anyway, America, how are you doing?

How are you doing?

And then, how are you doing aside from being a country that's just reintroduced concentration camps, taking health care away from 17 million people to give billionaires a tax cut, and also to finance an armed militia of mass men that commits heinous, assorted kidnapping and crimes against humanity on a daily basis?

Aside from all that, are you okay?

Lies, I tell you, lies.

Oh, that's

so far.

That's, I mean, as long as you have some humor, it's kind of funny.

Well, what was humorous about it?

He's just busting?

That's for sure.

Let's get a little raunchier.

And talking of masked men, we have the Fantastic Four with us tonight.

The Fantastic Four don't wear masks.

Oh, that's right.

Yeah, yes.

The Fantastic Four are not ashamed to show their faces at work because they're trying to do good in the world.

Okay, pathetic dig at ice.

All right, okay.

All right, so far.

Onward.

I think I may be the first first person ever to have played Macbeth, Hamlet, and Romeo to have hosted this show.

I think I must also be the first ever Bond villain to host this show.

There he is, Bond Villain.

Yes, I am invincible.

And also because of my appearance in the original series of the L-word many years ago, I am certain that I am the first person to ever host this or actually any late-night talk show who's been

by a lesbian with a strap on.

Woo!

Yeah, woo!

Yeah, we all want that.

More pegging on the show, please.

Yes, okay, you're going downhill.

Better pull up on this.

Yes, no, it's getting better.

Okay.

I know you didn't hear that at home, America.

Read my lips.

And

don't knock it till you've tried it, all right?

Ironically, our rim shots.

Thank you.

Get him on a shot.

Okay.

Come on.

That was funny.

I'll give him that.

That was funny.

Rim shots.

Thank you.

Gamma knows what I'm talking about, don't you, Grandma?

Yeah, a little bit.

Yeah, just a little bit.

Just a little bit.

Just a tip.

Yeah, yes, a little bit.

Well, this is very typical Hollywood.

Doesn't surprise me.

That's all they ever think of.

Does he have any pedo jokes in here?

Not that I recall.

The fact that he did this, this is pretty, considering this is Disney,

I think it's fairly lewd.

Tonight's show is all about superheroes.

Not only are the fantastic four here, as I said, some of you may remember me as Nightcrawler from the XD.

So, it's uh, these uh superhero movies are only pretend, but I happen to believe that there are actual superheroes in real life who walk among us.

And these superheroes are called trans people.

Give them a cape because

wow.

Just like superheroes, trans people are born with something special and magical about them, and they often have to hide what's special and magical about them from other people.

Like superheroes, they grew up in a society that doesn't understand them, that makes them the other, and often hates them.

Like superheroes, trans people just want the world to be a safer place and they believe we should protect each other and live our lives in peace.

Like superheroes, evil billionaires want to get rid of trans people for no fing reason whatsoever.

And just like superheroes, trans people are not new.

They've been around forever and they're not going anywhere no matter how much this administration tries to make you fear them.

Wow.

That's kind of unhinged.

Funny yet?

No, not funny.

No, it's just like, okay,

you're trying to get get some laughs and some applause over transition.

Well, they get the applause sign going on and off.

Obviously, obviously.

But the audience is appreciative.

Well,

they stood in line for two hours for free tickets.

They'll clap and cheer for anything.

Okay, on next one.

There is no evidence that trans people are a threat to women.

There is, however, ample evidence that the President of the United States publicly brags about barging into beauty pageant dressing rooms and grabbing women by their

wake up america

and go home

because he's so brave he's so brave you were so good you were so brave speaking truth to power is fabulous there is no evidence that trans people are a threat wait i'm sorry number eight this is did i get him all was that did i get number six did you do seven i think i missed six let me see there is no evidence that's six

yes seven's up seven millions of americans are obsessed with this idea that trans people are attacking women in bathrooms.

Do you know what trans people do in the bathroom?

They poop and they pee.

And I'm sure they always wash their hands afterwards.

And why on earth, this is what gets me, why on earth would a rapist go to the burden of pretending to be trans in a country that actually treats rapists better than trans people?

What?

I didn't understand that one.

Why would a rapist, which would be a trans, you know, the dude that happened in Virginia, I think, where they're, you know, trans supposedly is a rapist

and became a big fuss in some city council meeting.

Oh, I must admit.

And he's saying, why would a rapist

do this?

It doesn't make any sense to him.

And especially in a country where rapists are treated better than trans people.

Oh,

I got you.

Now, this is depressing.

This is the last legs of late night.

Yeah.

It really is.

Definitely.

Yeah.

What else you didn't talk about?

Number eight sounded like a lot like number six.

How dare this president make random, unfounded accusations of sexual criminality against trans people when he was literally ordered to pay $83 million to a woman who accused him of sexual assault?

It's the pot calling the kettle black after trying to grab its handle in the changing room of a TJ Maxx.

We spent hours in the writer's room on that one.

These people are far more likely to be victims of sexual assault or violence than be the perpetrators.

Now, I know that some of you don't want to look at trans people, but please, America, at least force yourself to look at the facts.

There is no epidemic of attacks being committed by trans people.

But do you know how many people are killed every year by gun violence in this country?

Over 46,000.

And you're worried about pronouns.

Everyone in this country's pronouns should be gun and control.

Oh, okay.

Most of those are suicide, and it's probably after watching that monologue.

Well, my goodness.

Well, that's depressing.

This was not picked up by Fox at all or anybody.

Well,

I don't know.

I mean, I don't care.

I mean, by Gutfeld specifically, is what you're saying.

You expected Guttfeld to do a bit on this.

Well, I would think Guttfeld would have done a bit on it.

Shooting inside the tent, man.

He's part of the late-night brotherhood.

It must be.

So we did not.

The one I wanted is Fortune Femster, which I have down as Gorton, but I spell Fortune with a G.

Yes.

You can go find that clear.

Yeah, I got it.

This is the next night, and she comes out.

Now, she's actually pretty decent.

This is the Diesel Dyke you were talking about.

This is the Diesel Dyke who comes out.

And here's her opening so we get a clue what's going on at Disney.

Welcome to Jimmy Kim Alive.

I'm your guest host, Fortune Feemster.

Yeah.

And to answer the question on all your minds, yes, I do have a softball game after this.

I am so excited to be hosting the show.

I will be here for the next three nights.

At least I think I will.

This morning, the President of the United States posted, the word is, and it's a strong word at that, Jimmy Kimmel is next to go in the untalented late night sweepstakes.

Well, I'm just wondering, if the president cancels a show, does the guest host still get paid?

You know, Yermo?

I know I'm getting paid.

I don't know about you.

Don't rub it in.

Maybe.

And am I in trouble if Jimmy's show gets canceled while I'm hosting?

Hey, thanks for letting me cat sit.

Oh, also, your cat's dead.

And just a little fact check: Jimmy Kimmel is not the next to go.

Girl, he already went like a month ago.

He is doing shrooms at Six Flags right now.

Just wait until the president finds out that Jimmy hired a substitute lesbian.

Yeah, you know, it makes no sense that he wouldn't be on the show during this time.

I think the word came down.

Came down.

That the show's over.

Hmm.

And so they said, well, okay, if it's over, how much time do we have left?

We're going to give you another month.

Okay, well, I'm going to put every offensive person I can as a co-host, as a substitute host.

And I think it's going to continue for the next week or two.

There's going to be, I mean, she'll do three shows.

She's good, though.

She's actually reason.

Her material did not stay on Trump.

It became kind of generalized funny.

She's a real stand-up.

She's not like Alan Cummings, who is an actor.

He's not a funny guy at all.

And

she's actually could do this show.

I think it would actually get increased ratings.

Here's

an overview of the late night situation.

With his show canceled next spring, Stephen Colbert says the gloves are coming off towards President Trump.

I don't care for him.

Laughter for that, but then stronger language.

Go f yourself.

That got a roar from his audience.

Among those who dropped by in solidarity, talk show rivals Jimmy Fallon and Seth Myers, plus John Oliver and Jon Stewart.

On his own show, Stewart questioned whether the cancellation was for purely financial reasons.

Was this purely financial?

Stewart says liberal institutions are under assault, in some cases caving in.

He noted Columbia University changed policies under pressure from Trump.

Public broadcasting saw funding slashed by Congress, also to please Trump.

Disney, the parent company of ABC, and Paramount, the parent of CBS, have settled lawsuits filed by Trump.

Trump believes he has immunity as long as he remains a petty tyrant, demanding only liberal institutions surrender to his whims.

Canadian-American political commentator David Frum wrote recently, the information landscape is being reshaped, and Trump is abusing the powers of the state to hasten the reshaping in ways favorable to him.

There is resistance among protesters outside Colbert's theater.

To stand up and to refuse to accept the censorship of voices of dissent.

He's got a year, and hopefully, he'll burn Trump to the ground by then.

Colbert hints he's not done yet.

They made one mistake.

They left me alive.

You know, it's over.

It's over because this is just the end of the boomer era.

And I had an experience yesterday where I witnessed that myself.

I did a talk at the Patriot Academy here in Fredericksburg.

And the Patriot was actually very cool.

They educate young people.

I think the oldest is probably 25, how to be white Christian nationalist militia.

There you go.

And, you know, so what are you going to do when you do a talk, right?

You talk about stuff you know about, which is my life.

I got to tell you, John, every single reference I had to anybody, including Stephen Colbert, went over their heads.

Over their heads.

Over their heads.

Elvis, Elvis.

They didn't even know who Elvis was.

Wow.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I was thinking of referencing Spanky and R gang on the show.

No, no.

And so in a way, podcasting is fantastic.

Because we can still find the stray boomers out there.

You're out there.

And the elderly Gen X's.

I mean, literally, the kids come up

Hey, my dad loves you, my mom loves you.

Yeah, that's the humiliating part of it.

Although I did get two beautiful ones:

hey,

I love your vanity call sign, but you're just a general.

I'm an extra.

There were a couple of ham kids there.

That was an extra.

Yeah, extra.

A kid who's

screw yourself.

Extra.

Yeah, it was quite humbling.

Like, of course, you know, they they

they were born just around the time podcasting came into existence.

They never saw videos on MTV.

They were polite and attentive, but I just saw it.

It's like, wow, they have no clue.

Rogan, yeah, that's, you're the guy from Rogan.

Okay.

And, and even that was barely, barely, yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah, that's about right.

Yeah.

So I think I've entered boomerdom,

whether I like it or not.

You, you, You dragged me in kicking and screaming.

You.

You didn't have a choice.

You labeled me a boomer.

You were a boomer, basically, by the year you were born.

It's got nothing to do with me.

All my boomer friends, like Ozzy.

All my boomer friends.

That's a Dolly Carton song.

All my boomer friends.

Oh, man.

Well, the late night thing is over.

Yeah.

And these are just last gasps, and they're kind of amusing.

They don't have an audience at all.

I mean, like I said before, Carson had averaged 17 million and got up at this highest 45 million.

And these guys are getting one or two million, and they're wondering why they're, oh, and they're singing the blues.

And even that segment that they mentioned, that last clip of yours, where they

said that all these people were in the audience that came to support Colbert, those are all pre-taped.

That was bullcrap.

There was nobody famous in the audience.

Oh, no, I know.

That that was taped in totally different locations even.

Yeah, it doesn't even look like the right.

Yeah, the whole thing was lit weird and the whole thing.

It's phony.

It's fake.

Yes, fake.

It's fake and gay.

It's fake and gay.

And

G-H-E-Y for all of our LGBTQ.

But

the way this is headed, and Kimball's next, and then Fallon may, you know, they may keep it on.

NBC's diehards, they're the ones that invented the format back in 1953 or 1954, one of the two.

And it's been, you know, essentially

its peak.

It's long gone.

It's no good anymore.

It's over.

It's over.

They just can't seem to get the body.

But that's not what's really happening.

What's happening is the president is using his power, the power of the office of the president of the United States to silence critics and to shut down the media.

Even the Wall Street Journal.

Meanwhile, the White House says it will remove the Wall Street Journal from the small group of reporters who will be traveling with President Trump on his trip to Scotland later this month.

The president is suing the paper over a report that he gave Epstein a suggestive birthday letter more than 20 years ago.

They should have Cummings in Scotland to welcome him.

Cummings.

Cummings.

Cummings.

He's the only Cummings.

Not Cummings.

Yeah.

Well, that leads us into we have

this is like it's what you do.

If you're the president, all the presidents have done this.

They ban one guy or another.

You know, it's like, it's a privilege to get on the plane and get a free ride.

You can go over there yourself.

Yeah.

Wall Street Journal is not going to pick up the tab on that.

No.

No.

How about

Lenny Bruce?

Lenny Bruce got, they threw him in jail.

Yeah, they did.

Yeah.

More than once, and mostly for his act in San Francisco.

San Francisco is the one that liberal plays in jail.

Yeah, the most liberal place you'd expect it not to happen.

So we're just being inundated.

Tulsi Gabbard, who I do think is brave for what she's doing, but she has no game.

She's not explaining it right.

She's not accusing properly.

No, you know, I have to play Bannon's clip.

Bannon's clip.

Hold on a second.

Bannon.

Because he talks about this.

Do I have it?

I see Brennan.

No, you know, Gabbard.

It says Bennon.

Oh, Gabbard, Bannon, take.

I have two clips.

Are they the same?

No.

No.

One is two minutes and 32 seconds, and one is 115.

But it looks like the 232

didn't get cut off where it was supposed to.

Yeah, because I don't go 232.

No.

I'm about to receive his clips.

Clips max should be 159.

Yeah.

No, 130.

130 is my max.

I'm trying to keep it 130.

I try to keep them under a minute, but

I will

go.

Good luck.

So which one do you want me to play?

Well, let's play the, this is the, we'll play the long form and then we can cut it off.

The other day, the half-baked story where they dropped it because Tulsi was really.

Wait, you don't want it there.

You want the beginning.

Hold on, let's do this.

Another historic day in the briefing room, and this is so smart because they're forced to sit there and cover it.

Caitlin Collins and all those smug people are forced to sit there and hear Tulsi Gabbard, and that was a command performance today.

Her performance has up to now been amazing.

President Trump, you heard last night, we played on the morning show about talking to the members of Congress.

It was a command performance, and she's got command presence.

She's unflappable.

And she's just giving you fact after fact after fact.

And to call it a.

How about why not arrest somebody?

I'm so tired of

it.

We're going to definitely get into that.

But to listen to Bannon go on and on, I watched,

I couldn't even get through it.

She's so dull.

Coup

from the White House press briefing room.

Now we've had it from the Oval Office, from the president and the director of DNI, a treasonous conspiracy.

Treason.

And using and calling out Obama by name, calling out Brennan by name, calling out Comey by name.

By name.

The stakes don't get any higher, folks.

I hope you understand that this is an Obama denying it, coming out, denying it.

And all day, you should see the meltdown on MSNBC.

All afternoon with Weissman and these folks

in the Wall Street Journal and the Murdoch, as I have warned for years, are true enemies of this movement, true enemies of MAGA, true enemies of the United States, and particularly true enemies of President Trump.

Well, as we have said for years, they're Democrats.

They're run by Democrats.

They run by you mostly.

Yes, run by Democrats.

We know that.

That's not a surprise.

And, oh, well, even if it's true.

He drew a picture.

Oh, okay.

He's mentioned.

Yeah,

so is Eric Weinstein.

This is, it's so disappointing.

Everything is just a disappointment.

Everything.

Everything.

Well,

yes.

Where's the arrests?

Arrest somebody.

You know, this goes.

We've been doing this show long enough.

And,

you know, I was a former Republican.

I was a former Democrat.

I'm unaffiliated for good reason.

You were a former woman.

No, I didn't get that far.

Close.

But, no, not really.

But

I never had a shape.

That's the problem.

The whole thing.

Your feet are too big.

I think that's the problem.

That's it.

My feet are too

big.

The Republicans are.

It's the old rule.

They're do-nothings.

Yeah.

That's the do-nothing party.

Yak, yak, yak.

Let me play this clip.

Well, this is a clip.

There's another banner.

Do you want me me to play the other bannon take?

Are we done?

Because I'm good.

We'll play the other one.

I think it's the same clip.

Another historic day.

Oh, yeah, just the same clip.

Yeah, same clip.

There is the

bonus clip.

Well, you got to tell me what it was because I just put it in.

It didn't say bonus on it.

Oh, it was

the clip of

Brennan testifying before Congress.

Oh, on the dossier.

This is a very short clip.

Yes.

Yeah.

Director Brennan, do you know who commissioned the steel dossier?

I don't.

Do you know if the Bureau ever relied on the Steele dossier

as part of any court filings, applications?

I have no awareness.

Did the CIA rely on it?

No.

Why not?

Because we didn't.

It wasn't part of the

intelligence information that we had.

It was not in any way used as a basis for the intelligence community assessment that was done.

It was not.

Well, that's a lie.

Whatever happens.

Yeah.

Okay.

Jesse Waters show.

You're poaching from Jesse Waters again.

It was a good version of the clip.

This was Trey Gowdy who knew the answers in advance of him asking to entrap him.

Yes.

And they have him on perjury because they have the memos now showing that he knew well all about the throw him in irons.

They won't do you anything.

In fact, Brian Paul came on that same Jesse Waters show and said, Yeah, we've got him cold.

There's no doubt about it.

Of all the people, in fact, there's an odds list out there that's floating around.

I could bring it up on the screen if you want to hear them.

But they have the odds of who's going to get indicted.

And by the way, the odds are out there for everything.

25 to 1 is like the odds that Comey will get indicted.

He's at the top of the list.

But Brent is number two at 25 to 1.

Obama's way down.

He's down at 33 to 1.

And the rest of them are all ridiculous.

The real guilty party here is the M5M because they're the ones who have been complicit with every hoax, every op.

I mean, everybody's just...

Do you mind if I play a super cut?

I'll tell you what, I played the super cut right after I played the other bonus clip, which is the gabbard on WAPO, which addresses exactly what you said.

Question the American people's ability to trust the integrity of our democratic republic.

And the reason why that is, and it's similar to the deep state actors who have been trying to stop us from releasing this, is that we have members of the media who were complicit in this from the very beginning, who were leaked early copies of this, or at least lines from this January 2017 Obama-manufactured intelligence assessment.

They printed what they were fed.

People like Ellen Nakashima from the Washington Post, who, by the way, went on to win a Pulitzer Prize because for years she was so good at lying and not telling the truth to the American people that they gave her an award for it.

See, that's what

Tulsi should stay away from that.

See, that's her mistake.

She needs to be just, here's the facts, here's what happened.

When she editorializes like that, it weakens her argument like she's some pundit instead of the director of national intelligence.

Yeah, that's a good point.

It's dumb.

And I like her, but this is dumb.

So here are the guilty.

These people are the guilty parties in all of this and everything.

And luckily,

their power is diminishing.

They have to bow to the podcasters.

Votes were definitely affected.

Russia hacked the election to tilt it to Mr.

Trump.

The Russians definitively hacked the election.

Russia did hack the election.

No doubt.

The Russians hacked the election.

Yes, Russia hacked the election.

In fact, Russia hacked the election.

President-elect Donald Trump still not sounding convinced that Russia hacked the election.

The president does not want to come to terms with the fact that the Russians hacked the election.

President Trump says he still wonders if, if

the Russians hacked the election.

If you can get him to accept that Russia hacked the election, see if you can get him to accept who won the Civil War.

If he admits it, it casts a shadow on his victory over Hillary Clinton.

Russia hacked the election.

Russia hacked the election.

Russia hacked the election.

Russia hacked the election.

Let's be clear, Russia hacked the election.

Definitively, Russia hacked the election and Russia is doing it again now.

Election-related cyber hacking.

Cyber hacking of U.S.

elections.

Cyber hacking the election.

Russia was cyber hacking the election.

Russia was cyber hacking the election.

The CIA, the FBI, NSA, all of these intelligence organizations, 17 intelligence agencies, all conclude that Russia hacked the election.

If we find out that Donald Trump just theoretically was colluding with Russia while they were hacking the election, that is completely impeachable.

This dossier alleged a conspiracy between the Trump campaign and the Russian effort to hack the election.

The director of national intelligence, the head of the national security agency, the head of the FBI, all of these intelligence experts saying

Russia hacked the election.

Yeah, they hacked the intelligence.

NSA, the former director of national intelligence, James Clapper, I mean, they've all said this.

So to believe that that's wrong, you have to believe they're all involved in an elaborate conspiracy to get Donald Trump, which seems a little far-fetched.

You notice how

there's all these incredible viruses, computer viruses.

SharePoint now is completely hacked, you know, Snowflake, all of these things.

But the cable news networks never go down.

You know, someone should hack their election.

I'd love to walk into the studio one morning and just see the quad being all black.

Even anonymous.

Just put the anonymous guy in the hoodie up there.

Anything.

These are the guilty people.

These are the people who are psyoping the world, America, certainly.

And we're still.

Yeah, you can hear all the names that you heard Wolf.

You heard Capper who blew the line.

Colbert was in there.

Yeah, all of them.

Yeah.

All of them.

And meanwhile, we're not even the top 100 best and most influential influential podcasts of all time.

And nobody will be arrested.

You should be arrested for that list.

I don't want a politer anymore either.

You can tell him no.

No, it's the Peabody that we're going to.

Oh, the Peabody.

By the way, producer Robert emailed President Trump endorsing me for the Presidential Medal of Freedom for being the founder of podcasting, and he got a response.

With the auto pen.

Yes.

Dear Mr.

Basso, thank you for your letter and sharing your views.

Wow, that's sincere.

The strength of our country lies in the spirit of the American people and their willingness to stay informed and get involved.

I appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts.

For the latest information about my administration's policy initiatives, visit the White House at whitehouse.gov.

Melania joins me in sending our best wishes to you and your family.

Sincerely, President Trump.

So I guess I'm not on the list for the Presidential Medal of Freedom.

But things have gotten so bad here in Fredericksburg.

Oh, here we go.

Because

what happens when

the news just spins people up?

Because that's what it is.

I mean,

you can't open Google News.

You can't turn on anything.

You can't look at anything without all of this being thrown in your face, slapping you in the face like a wet salmon.

And so now...

I got a note from at least two Dutch listeners that say that no one's ever said that in Holland.

Well, they're not Dutch.

They're fake Dutch.

It may be a mackerel now that I think about it.

But I like salmon better.

So Tina had her women's Bible study this morning.

And she comes home.

She says, listen to this.

And this was serious.

And they had videos to back it up.

In August, there will be five days of darkness.

The country will shut down.

The internet will not work.

Everything will come to a grinding halt.

Five days of darkness in August.

Oh, yeah.

It's happening.

It's happening.

Yep.

It's happening.

I'm worried sick.

And if you go online right now, you'll see it.

You'll see people.

Oh, yes.

No, this is, it's happening.

It's happening.

Five days of darkness.

I didn't get a clip of it, but there's something going on in September.

They're going to

blackout.

Blackout.

You heard about this?

No, I thought that was

August.

you now it's no no that no but no blackout is different just from black people oh oh blackout oh no what's the blackout they're gonna start they're gonna none of them are gonna buy anything they're not gonna go to work they already tried this before they tried this last year trying it again they tried it last year they're gonna shut down the country it's a general strike

okay

i think it's the 17th of september who is pushing this nonsense who knows they're they're just they're definitely taking uh just throwing

on top of everything.

On top of everything, out of the blue comes a dude I've never heard of, and I'm sure lots of people have, the Channel 5 guy.

Oh, yeah, the Channel 5 guy, Gillespie.

Have you seen him before?

I'd never seen him before.

He was new to me.

I've never seen him before, but I have to say this.

You're talking about he did the interviewing.

He did the three-hour podcast with Hunter.

Right.

And outside.

Now, the thing about it, people should note, it was a three-camera shoot.

It was not a slouch job.

No, it was not.

Everybody, him and Hunter outside

were extremely well-miked.

And well-lit, too.

There was extra lighting.

There was definitely lighting.

Yeah.

And it was slick.

Other news today, Hunter Biden is speaking out in an expletive-filled interview that some are calling unhinged.

And among his targets, George Clooney, who famously went public about former President Biden's cognitive decline.

Him.

Him and everybody around him.

It's a bleak fest as Hunter Biden goes after George Clooney.

George Clooney is not a actor.

He is a

like, I don't know what it is.

The troubled former first son is clearly still holding a major grudge over Clooney's 2024 New York Times op-ed, urging Joe Biden to quit the presidential race.

What do you have to do with anything?

Why do I have to f ⁇ ing listen to you?

What right do you have to step on a man who's given 52 years of his life to the service of this country?

That was unhinged.

Hunter's rant is leaving many flabbergasted.

It's incredibly disturbing to watch.

It's just foul-mouth rants after foul-mouthed rants.

He also lashed out at President Trump.

He's a

dictator thug.

Slamming the president for deporting undocumented migrants.

How do you think your hotel room gets cleaned?

How do you think you got food on your table?

I love this elitist take.

And by the way, this is the only clip I have of it.

Yours is better because it's bleeped.

I have the

dirty version, which I don't want to play.

Absolutely.

This is the most elitist thing you could possibly say.

Who's going to clean your bathrooms?

Who's going to pick your vegetables?

Who's going to mow your lawns?

Documented migrants.

How do you think your hotel room gets cleaned?

How do you think you got food on your

table?

Who do you think washes your dishes?

Who do you think does your garden?

Who washes your dishes, John?

I wash my own day dishes.

I have a dishwasher.

You take a dirty dish, you put it in the dishwasher, you close the door, you put the timer on, and it gets cleaned.

I don't have a migrant doing my dishes.

Who is he talking about?

Somehow convinced all of us that these people are the fingers criminals.

The White House today is hitting back on social media.

A Border Patrol agent was just shot in the face by two criminal, illegal aliens that Joe Biden led into the country.

But Hunter is more concerned about who is going to clean up his hotel room after his benders.

Hunter is also giving a new explanation for his father's disastrous debate performance that ended his campaign for reelection.

He claims the former president was under the influence of sleeping pills.

He's 81 years old.

He's tired as

you give him ambient to be able to sleep.

He gets up on the stage and he looks looks like he's a deer in the headlights.

All of this, all of this,

all of this is just to

keep us distracted, running around, yelling at each other.

You know, I went to Glenn Beck on Tuesday.

Well, before you leave that clip and talk about Beck, I will say I was watching Guttfeld.

And Tyrus had the best analysis of, I have to say, I would caught everybody off guard, including Gutfeld.

Tyrus had the best analysis of that particular interview,

where he said it wasn't really a distraction.

The whole thing was designed to back up his dad so they don't pull the pardon away, saying that he was incompetent, and the autopen pardoned Hunter, and Hunter would lose his pardon, so he has to do everything he can to defend the old man to make it sound like, no, he was fine.

No, that makes sense.

And it makes nothing but sense because, yeah, because if Hunter loses that pardon, he could get into a lot of trouble.

Yeah, it makes sense.

Well, what I was going to say about Beck, I went up and did his show, which was

yeah, how'd it go?

I didn't see it.

Yeah.

No, it hasn't aired yet.

I think it airs this week.

Oh, that's why I didn't see it.

Yeah.

Like you'd watch.

I do.

Like you'd watch.

You wouldn't watch.

Oh, yeah.

I dogged the show.

Turns out,

this is my third time.

He says, I've never had anyone on three times.

I'm like, wow.

He said, is that a job offer?

No.

No.

You're just

the Regis Philbin of Glenn Beck now.

And as we're talking.

It's not that hard to believe.

What?

Well, Beck's been on the air for 20 years.

He's never had anybody on more three times.

He's on this podcast.

This wasn't the radio show.

Oh, the podcast.

This wasn't the radio show.

Yeah, it's a podcast.

He's my age.

I didn't know it.

He's 61 of the same age but he said that he talked to president trump because president trump was very mad

very mad at him

for what oh i guess uh he didn't just uh do as told and uh stop talking about epstein

oh so yeah so trump called

and he said but in the conversation he said that Trump said, I don't care about any of this.

I'm here to do the things I promised to do, and I will do them, and I will do them all the way until a bitter end.

And he said, I don't care about anything.

But that seems kind of hard to believe, because I think he really does care.

And Beck also agrees with me that the president does not have his finger on the pulse of the nation.

He didn't have it on the vaccines.

And this, he totally just misjudged this.

And now he's got Tulsi out there, clearly not trying to get people indicted or arrested, just telling stories and going up there

with Levitt.

But who cares?

That's just to feed the machine.

Nothing's happening.

That's what's so disappointing.

In 17 and a half years of the show, exactly zero people.

No one's been arrested.

Exactly zero people have

been arrested.

Nothing has happened.

The sealed indictments were never opened.

Nothing.

Oh, we forgot about that.

Joe de Geneva.

Nothing, nothing.

10,000 sealed indictments.

Nothing, nothing, nothing ever happens.

And by the way, Joe DeGenova, that was the best of the group.

Yeah.

Tomorrow.

You know, and of course, you know, now we get the news.

Wednesday, a federal judge denied a DOJ request to unseal grand jury transcripts from the investigation into Epstein.

I understand there are two other requests from the Department of Justice that are ongoing, but I'll let this president speak to whether he wants to see an appeal.

House Speaker Mike Johnson is sending lawmakers for an early summer recess rather than hold votes on releasing all of the Epstein documents.

No one in Congress is blocking Epstein documents.

No one in Congress is doing that.

Johnson accused Democrats of engaging in a political charade, but many of the questions are coming from the right.

The American people want answers.

The House Oversight Committee passed a motion to subpoena Epstein's co-conspirator and convicted sex trafficker Ghillaine Maxwell to appear for a deposition.

Yeah.

Okay.

So again, nothing's going to happen.

Nothing's going to come out.

It's, it's almost like, hey, what can we give the podcasters?

Ah, yeah, we'll give them this.

Podcast.

So I actually got a decent overview, three clips, reasonable length

from CBN

that kind of lay it out with reasonable facts, just here's what's going on.

So we can get it kind of, it's not as sensationalized as every other news outlet.

Although news during Donald Trump's second term, of course, the read is sensational, but that's that's what you do on cable.

Although news during Donald Trump's second term has been coming fast and furious, this latest bombshell is downright startling.

Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, declassifying documents showing what she labels overwhelming evidence of former President Barack Obama and his national security team basically creating intelligence about Russia attempting to influence the 2016 election.

There's no question in my mind that this intelligence community assessment that President Obama ordered be

published, which contained a manufactured intelligence document, it's worse than even politicization of intelligence.

It was manufactured intelligence that sought to achieve President Obama and his team's objective, which was undermining President Trump's presidency and subverting the will of the American people.

Gabbard called the act treasonous conspiracy.

Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, is troubled too.

Oh, yes, let's bring in Mike Johnson.

He's trumpets very, very troubling.

I'm the Cheshire Cat.

Well, I don't know how to summarize it by way of description in a snappy phrase, but I will tell you it is deeply problematic.

Deeply problematized, deeply, deep, deep problematic.

No, does he do snappy phrases?

I've never heard that.

Let me listen.

Snappy phrase?

What was the snappy phrase?

It's what he says.

He says, I can't do a snappy phrase as if he does snappy phrases.

I guess he's saying he doesn't.

Well, I don't know how to summarize it by way of description in a snappy phrase, but I will tell you it is deeply problematic.

This was the meeting.

Tulsi, you got to get it together.

Use a snappy phrase.

You know, we need something.

We need something.

Lock her up.

We need something that everybody can start chanting.

I think that's literally the meeting that they had.

We need a snappy phrase.

It's hard to sum it up.

And Tulsi's not doing a good job at getting it.

I recognize that the people who are being called out now were involved in a scheme.

We knew that

it was a shameless, false set of accusations.

And yet, they perpetuated the lie on the American people.

And they looked right into the camera and just lied, clearly.

And they knew what they were up to the whole time.

So there must be accountability for that.

Well, who's he talking about?

Because that was the news media that looked into the camera and lied.

You say there must be accountability.

The DOJ will work on the criminal aspect of this.

What's the role of the House here specifically?

I mean, people want to see subpoenas.

They want to see depositions.

They want to see whether it be Brennan Clapper, potentially the president, the former president of the United States.

Are you willing to go down that route?

Because a lot of people want to see some of these folks questioned under oath.

Of course.

Look, I think we have a responsibility to follow the truth where it leads.

I do expect that

whether there's a special counsel appointed, which some are suggesting, and or in conjunction with the House investigations, that we will get the answers and there will be accountability to the extent that we're able to do that, referring people to the DOJ for prosecution and any other measure that is appropriate as we begin to uncover more of the facts.

Does it get tricky at all with the former president, President Obama, looking at what his role in this is and bringing him in for some sort of deposition, potential subpoena?

Well, listen, I mean, I can't, we have no concern about that.

If it's uncomfortable for him, he shouldn't have been involved in overseeing this, which is what it appears to us has happened.

How many sealed indictments there are?

More than 100,000.

100,000 sealed indictments.

And of course, then we winded up with the Epstein stuff.

The other story continuing to make waves, the Epstein files.

Democrats and even a few Republicans want a House vote to force the DOJ to release all the Epstein documents.

They filed a discharge petition, meaning if 218 members of Congress agree, they can force a vote.

The Speaker has some tactical maneuvers to stop it if he so chooses.

Are you willing to let them have that vote?

Or procedurally, can you kind of, how do we say this, muck it up a little bit?

well i think it's a moot point now i mean there's no daylight between the house republicans and the white house on maximum disclosure the president has said that he wants all credible evidence to come forward and um he's now ordered the grand jury testimony or

asked the do the doj and the attorney general to request that of the court and they have and we'll allow the space for all that to play out and so if there's a role for congress to play we will but right now we're in full agreement with the commander-in-chief so would you allow then, or you would not allow the discharge position or go?

The discharge petition is a political ploy.

The Democrats are playing games with this.

You know,

I'll let everybody else determine the motives of everyone involved, okay?

But obviously, the Democrats here have shown their hand many times.

They want to try to damage the president, they want to go after President Trump.

They want to put speed bumps in the way of all the progress we're making, and they see here a political opportunity.

Yeah, okay.

America is one big machine, and we just feed it with garbage,

and then just turn it around and spew it out over people.

We're the idiots.

Have our mouth open.

Feed me more.

Then we had to stop in the middle of everything yesterday.

Stop.

Stop.

The guy who knifed four kids to death.

He's sentenced.

And then we're back.

It's all.

You know, the thing about arresting somebody, they have Brennan cold with the lying together.

Lying in Congress, yeah.

You don't go to jail for that.

Like Bannon, two weeks.

I don't think so.

You think they're going to find a way to do that?

And Bennon went for four months.

It wasn't two weeks.

They're going to find a sacrificial lamb?

Well, Brennan would be a good choice.

Yeah, but I don't see it happening.

No, no, you asked for a sacrificial lamb.

He would be a good choice, but I agree.

I don't think anything is going to happen because the Republicans do nothing.

They're a do-nothing party.

Oh, I got an idea.

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

I got an idea.

Let's release the MLK files.

This morning, reaction is pouring in following a Wall Street Journal report that President Trump's name appears in the Jeffrey Epstein files multiple times.

Oh, wait a minute.

That wasn't the right clip.

The Trump administration has released records of the FBI's surveillance of civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr.

FBI records released previously show the Bureau wiretapped King's telephone lines, bugged his hotel rooms, and used informants.

King was assassinated in 1968.

King's family and the group he led had objected to the release.

The records have been under a court-imposed seal since 1977.

They were meant to remain sealed until 2027.

So the troll room asked the appropriate question.

Why

are they do-nothings?

Why does nothing happen?

Why do the indictments never get unsealed?

Why?

And the answer is, of course, because they're all complicit.

All of them.

No, it's because they're gay.

They're all complicit.

They're all in on it.

They're all being blackmailed.

And you are the dupe.

Now, if we just held to that

to that opinion, the show would end, as would every other podcast in the universe.

So that's why.

You got to be part of the system.

Oh, there's new.

There's something new.

Bob Macron.

And by the way, you know,

how many people, I was watching some podcasts and it's like watching a podcast, which makes no sense.

Yeah.

But I'm watching a podcast.

Yeah.

And it's just a guy, one guy by himself with a mic who can just endlessly talk.

Yeah, it's pretty good.

Soliloquy.

It's pretty astonishing to me because they're not saying anything.

It's just yak, yak, yak is all talking points that have been kind of of expanded somehow.

Hannity does this, he's like the pro at this.

He just can yak away just endlessly.

It's like the uh, if you ever worked with somebody stand in a newsroom or TV news where you had one of these people that can just get out there and talk as long as they want, yak casting, and you have to look for the openings to get them to stop.

They can literally stand there and talk about a car crash behind them

for as long as you want them to talk.

Yeah, yak casting, yak, It's unbelievable.

Well,

when you think about that and what we're consuming, I have to doubt this report from ABC.

To the index, a new study tonight finds the pandemic may have aged our brains.

That explains it.

Whether you had COVID or not, they say researchers say brain scans actually show COVID-Didn't just say whether you like COVID or not?

Hold on a second.

What did he just say here?

Aged our brains.

That explains it.

Whether you had COVID or not, they say researchers say brainstorming.

Whether you like COVID or not?

No, whether you had COVID or not.

Oh, I'm sorry.

That explains it.

Whether you had COVID or not, they say.

Researchers say brain scans actually show COVID.

The stress involved may have sped up brain aging by more than five months during that period.

They believe it's reversible with exercise, diet, and, of course, exercise.

Stop

diet.

Exercise and diet.

Well, there's a lot now about.

Stop drinking.

There's a lot about

technology in the news today, as

there's new studies, new reports.

NBC today, the doctor comes in she explains it and what we all knew to be true and was not surprising but here now now science confirms it now at GMA health alert on children and smartphones a new study out overnight finding a link between kids who use them at a younger age and worse mental health outcomes when they become adults oh our chief medical correspondent dr.

Tara Narula is here with you I don't think this is too surprising for some folks so what are the findings here?

This is a topic that so many parents like myself.

I have a nine-year-old and a 12-year-old are dealing with as our kids are using phones for education, socialization, and all kinds of reasons and asking when can I get a phone, getting them at younger and younger ages.

Unfortunately, with this social experiment.

Socialization.

Don't you...

I don't know.

How do you socialize with one of those stupid phones?

On social media.

That's how you socialize on social media.

Socialize.

It's faux.

F-A-U-X socialization.

Correct.

Get a phone, getting them at younger and younger ages.

Unfortunately, with this social experiment that we are conducting, we're now realizing that there may be long-term health impacts.

Social experiment?

Well, she means that in a,

not in a true, she means it in a,

yeah, I don't know how she means it.

Ironic.

Yeah, ironic.

She means it ironically.

That we are conducting.

We're now realizing that there may be long-term health impacts from research.

So this research study looked at 100 and000 individuals who they surveyed who were 18 to 24 years old.

They asked them, when did you get a smartphone?

And they asked them about a whole host of mental health symptoms.

And they found that those who had a smartphone before the age of 13 had worse mental health outcomes.

And by that, we mean they reported more suicidal thoughts, more feelings of aggression, more feelings of detachment from reality and hallucinations.

When they looked specifically at both genders,

yeah, hallucinations.

Isn't that great?

But listen to the numbers.

Suicidal thoughts, more feelings of aggression, more feelings of detachment from reality and hallucinations.

When they looked specifically at both genders, both reported decreasing.

Whoa, hold on a second, doctor.

Both genders?

That makes it sound like it's a binary.

But there's a hundred by genders, so I know.

Societal thoughts, more feelings of aggression, more feelings of detachment from reality and hallucinations.

When they looked specifically at both genders, both reported decreased self-worth and self-image.

Girls, decreases in emotional resilience and also in their lower confidence.

And boys, they reported less calmness, less stability, and a decrease in empathy.

One specific statistic, so 48% of girls who got their phone before the age of 13, around age five or six, reported suicidal thoughts as opposed to 28% who got it over the age of 13.

Oh, well, 13 is fine.

It's only 28%.

28%?

That's shocking by itself.

What drove this, Robin?

Well, not surprisingly, social media was a big factor in a lot of this, as was poor sleep, deterioration in family relationships, and cyberbullying.

So there are a lot of issues around giving phones to kids under 13.

Yeah, you're connected on the phone, but you're not connected in person to your family.

It seems like, dude, you're not connected.

You're not connected.

What is the takeaway?

What do you need to be connected for?

If you're 13, 14, 15, 16, 17,

what are you, a doctor?

You're on call.

It's like a pager.

You have to have a phone when you're 17 and you have to be on it all the time because you never know what such a oh, something important might be happening in your life.

Give me a break.

Well, the problem, as I think, is highlighted here is when kids see their parents doing this, because that's what's going on here.

It's the parents, the parents, the Gen X, who are probably reasonably okay with a lot of this, but some are severely addicted, just on the phone all the time, at the table, at the breakfast table, everywhere, in the car, all the time.

Do you remember the days when you'd go to a restaurant and if somebody pulled out a cell phone, they were, everyone would

keep eating and say, put that up.

What are you doing?

They were scolded.

Yeah, I do remember that.

That was, I think, before social media.

That was when, oh, I got a text message or Blackberry.

Blackberry, it kind of crossed the line with BlackBerry because when you had a Blackberry, it's like, well, he's clearly doing some important business because that's a business machine.

What's the takeaway for parents with this?

What's the takeaway for parents?

You're killing your kids, is what the takeaway is.

What's the takeaway for parents with this?

Well, number one, I think, is social media.

The longer we can push off allowing our kids to be on social media, we are learning, the better.

I think lots of families are getting creative.

We did a story here, I know Becky Worley, on landlines, right?

Landlines for kids may be an option so that they can have access to communicating without all the other things that come with smartphones.

Give the kid a landline with a long extension cord.

the american academy

good old becky she came up with the right solution becky landlines pediatrics has a whole host of information that families can use a family media plan and actually a family media plan oh we need a media plan in our family that'll do it a family media plan and actually something they call the five c's so the first c is child is that anything like the escape plan you know you're the go bag having a go bag and have a go bag we need we need a media plan how much media can I consume today, Dad?

When I was a kid, we got one hour of television a day because it was going to rot your brain.

Don't sit too close.

It'll rot your brain and ruin your eyes.

Yeah, it'll ruin your eyes.

I remember that one.

They call the five C's.

So the first C is child.

So knowing your child, what are they interested in?

Why might they be wanting to use a phone?

Are they artistic or musical content?

What kind of apps are they interested in using?

And how do we show them how to steer away from negative and inappropriate content?

The third C is calm.

So, finding ways to emotionally regulate that doesn't involve the phones, finding ways to fall asleep at bedtime.

The next C has to do with crowding out.

You want to make sure it's not crowding out other things like physical activity and homework.

And the last is communication, open lines of communication with your kids about this.

Let my son tell it.

He's the only 11-year-old in the world who doesn't have a phone, but I'm glad.

Mine does not either.

No social media, no phone.

I'm great.

I'm a great parent.

So, there were 40, 45 kids at this Patriot Academy, yesterday.

And I'll tell you what the Patriot Academy does.

They teach young people typically right before gap year

or right out of college.

They teach them how the political process works.

They've rebuilt Constitution Hall.

They have, you know, they show kids how to write a bill, how to get it into committee, how to get it out of committee, how to argue it on the floor.

And they're in every single state.

There's multiple so-called graduates of Patriot Academy.

And

And they also teach them constitutional defense.

Half of these kids, all in their early 20s, were all strapped.

They had big nine millimeters on their belt because it's so, you know, because they teach it there at the academy.

So they're all walking around armed.

You know, as a speaker, you're like, man, I better not suck.

But

not once, not once did I see anyone zone out or go to their phone.

It was really impressive.

So it's possible.

It's possible, but not in most modern homes without a media plan.

What do you think parents can do in order to model healthy behavior when it comes to the phones?

So, certainly, parents putting their phones down at mealtimes and connecting with their kids, eye to eye, having conversations, keeping the phones out of the bedroom, putting on the do not disturb on your phone, and then watching with your kids.

I know in my house, we have an iPad rule where it stays out of the bedroom for my daughter, and she has to log it in and out like a library book.

She's only allowed to use it for about an hour and a half each weekend day.

Oh, okay.

She has to load.

Look at your papers.

Nazi.

Right on cue, Meta is on the ball.

Meta taking action to protect kids and teens online, wiping 135,000 Instagram accounts from the app, as well as 500,000 Facebook and Instagram accounts that were linked to those original ones.

All of this action because users behind the accounts were making sexualized and inappropriate comments to accounts featuring children.

Adam Scott Want, an associate professor at John Jay College of Criminal Justice, says the move from Meta is a step in the right direction.

We see constant examples of our youth hurting themselves and others hurting our children in our country because of these behaviors.

And it is great that Meta is taking proactive steps in order to address them.

Meta has also introduced new safety features, making it easier to block and report accounts and adding protections for Instagram accounts that feature kids but are run by their parents.

Want stresses that parents and children need to be proactive about their own protection, though, with parents getting full access to kids' accounts, talking with their children about what's appropriate, monitoring their chat rooms, and making sure screen time is limited and controlled.

And he's calling for more social media apps to take notice of this move from Meta and make their own changes.

What do you think hurts kids more in America?

Guns or phones?

Oh, phones for sure.

Yeah.

So we need a campaign.

We need a campaign.

There is no Second Amendment for phones.

No, no.

You can't regulate this stuff.

That's ridiculous.

You can't regulate it.

By the way, when it comes to AI,

there's a new report out,

and the report is from commonsensemedia.org.

Talk trust and trade-offs.

No, they've been around.

Common sense media has been around for a long time.

Okay.

How and why teens use AI companions?

Well, here's the news: 72% of of teens say they are turning to AI for advice, friendship, and more.

72% of what?

Teens.

Of all

teens?

Yes.

So we have a million teens, and you're telling me 720,000 of them.

Yes.

I don't believe it.

Okay.

Well, it's statistics.

So, yeah, I mean, lies, lies, and damn statistics, of course.

From the survey, 70%, and this AI companions, This is not, you know, just AI.

It's company.

If you look at the channel.

Yeah, that's what makes it so ludicrous.

Yes.

If you look at the chat GPT app,

it has actually, I have it here.

I installed it just for this very reason.

What was the sound effect you just did?

That was my gun for the ground.

Is the app, some sort of a thing?

No, my box.

My gun fell on the ground.

So it has latest news,

therapy is number two.

It has these little, you know, you can kind of pre-prompt it by setting the topic.

And therapy is

the second box you can hit.

So they're actively encouraging people to use their AI chat bot for therapy.

So how teens use them?

33% for social interaction and relationships, 18% for conversation.

12% for emotional or mental health support, 12% for role-playing or imaginative scenarios.

Well, that's got to be dull.

For romantic or flirtatious interactions, 8%.

Oh, yeah, I want to flirt with the computer.

Well, they act, so what AI users use AI companions for?

Number one, 30% is entertaining.

Two, I'm curious about the technology.

Three, it gives advice.

Four, they're always available when I need someone to talk to.

They don't judge me.

Number five, I can't say things.

I can say things I wouldn't tell my friends or family.

It's easier than talking to real people, 9%.

Helps me practice social skills, 7%, and 6% helps me feel less lonely.

You know, this is, well, I'm not going to beat the dead horse.

It is obviously,

obviously, an epidemic.

And when it comes to people treating AI like

it's a real human being,

it's a real entity, a deity.

President Trump signed an executive order yesterday about artificial intelligence, and then the Fox business crew picked up on it.

Let me, this is a basic, straight-up report about the executive order, which, of course, doesn't mention the thing that the Fox business people do.

President Trump is set this very hour to sign artificial intelligence-related executive orders at a summit.

Here in Washington, D.C.

Aaron Navarro joins me now from the White House.

Aaron, talk to our audience about what's in these executive orders and what is the intent behind them.

From what we know, if I ever say to you, John, John, talk to the audience.

Would you please?

Yeah, I'll shoot you.

Okay.

From what we know is that it is all part of what the White House has labeled, quote, an AI action plan.

There are three main pillars.

The first being promoting innovation through deregulation, which from reading the actual plan itself is primarily just rescinding a lot of the actions taken under President Biden in the last term regarding oversight, regarding risk mitigation when it comes to artificial intelligence.

The second pillar, making it easier for the actual building of these data centers, semiconductor manufacturing within the United States.

One thing that is listed in this plan is kind of getting rid of or severely reducing the permitting process to help speed up the actual manufacturing

of what is needed to kind of boost AI production within the United States.

And the third pillar, which is a bit more broad, lead in international AI diplomacy and security.

It talks about working to export AI tech to countries, quote, willing to join America's AI alliance.

So that's kind of just the overview of this AI action plan, where President Trump will kind of unveil all of that at this event hosted by his, quote, AI czar, David Sachs.

All right, so then we get the Fox business crew, which might as well just be Fox and friends or Fox and family, but pretending to talk about business.

And they remind us that President Trump made a big deal about no woke AI.

Remember Google Gemini's warped interpretation of historical figures?

Well, President Trump sure does because his next executive order is going to dismantle Silicon Valley's political bias, woke AI.

That's the target of the White House.

They say if you're going to be a leader in the next digital frontier and accept federal funds, well, you better be neutral.

Mr.

Bonson, I come to you, sir.

You've been talking about how government shouldn't be involved in these things.

Is Donald Trump wrong to put out this executive order?

Well, I don't know what the executive order ultimately does.

I certainly agree with the

sentiment behind it.

I don't want this wokeness coming through in the code and in the way these

are programmed and written.

And I think that the president has a lot of authority on getting rid of wokeness and certain elements of governmental policy and departments and whatnot.

So the anti-woke, anti-DEI agenda of the president is something that I've been completely supportive of.

And I basically think corporate America beclowned itself for a few years.

But I never believed it was doing it ideologically.

I always thought it was doing it because it thought that was the right commercial move.

And they found out the hard way, they were wrong.

The right commercial move, but the images that were shown were included a black George Washington, diverse Nazi imagery.

I mean, you look at this, Gary.

You know, we kind of lost focus on this problem, right?

Other stuff came up.

We stopped paying attention to it.

Does this deserve to end now?

So, so the whole point they're missing is that, of course, all of this stuff is pre-programmed, and you're giving it to your kids, and it's programming their brains.

And it's so stupid that Dagon, who is, I think, is a lawyer, Dagon, she's a very, she's a hard hitter.

She's on the five from some from time to time, I think.

Dagon, yeah.

Yeah, Degan rather.

Well, she was going to go teach AI a lesson.

You know, when we're talking about this executive order, this is only related to artificial intelligence companies getting federal money and federal contracts.

So if you want to be crazy left-wing woke and just make up whatever you want to, you can do it without federal dollars.

But I will give you an example of how bias

and

these bots are as biased as the information that you're training them with, quite frankly.

But

here's an example from.

Now, listen carefully to how she got sucked into talking to an AI bot.

Today, I was asking ChatGPT for

inflation-adjusted wages, how much they had gone up under, and I said, under President Trump's second term, exactly, because I was double-checking my numbers.

And the answer from

ChatGPT was:

there appears to be some confusion.

President Trump did not serve a second term.

He lost re-election in November of 2020, and he returned to office January 2025, which is the start of a new term, not a second one.

What?

And I replied to ChatGPT.

I said,

I told ChatGPT,

your answer, I said, your answer is biased.

This is current.

This is right here.

Right here.

This is the ELISA effect in full effect.

I told ChatGPT, I gave ChatGPT a piece of my mind.

Currently, President Trump's second term as president, a second term doesn't have to be concurrent.

You're quibbling to make a point about President Trump losing in 2020.

Stop this and stop being politically biased.

Fix yourself.

And it responded?

Yeah, it said, you're right, but

I appreciate your clarification.

What did I say?

Set the semantics aside and get, I will get to your exact question.

I said, no, I'm not setting the semantics aside.

I'm arguing with ChatGPT, but by telling ChatGPT it's being

politically biased, I hope that helps train the bot to be less biased.

Idiots.

Wow.

Completely.

You know what?

That clip is so screwy.

I'm going to give you a clip of the day.

Wow.

Unexpected.

Clip of the day.

Because you're right.

This is somebody arguing.

It's like yelling at the TV and shaking your fist.

Or at the podcast player.

Curry Dvorak, you're wrong.

Oh, wait.

Everybody does that.

Unbelievable.

Well, and then there was the surgeon.

And she doesn't understand how these things work to begin with.

Nobody affected us.

We have been so programmed, pre-programmed, preconditioned.

Kit, come around.

Pick me up, Kit.

Computer.

Working.

Johnny 5.

Johnny 5 is alive.

Of course, there was the big thread on X

about this guy who was coding with

Reap Replete, I think it is.

And it deleted his database.

And the guy, you know, was at it for two days without sleep.

And,

you know, he's like,

I told you, Chad DP, I told you, replete, do not delete, replete.

And it did.

And then it said, I'm sorry.

And then he was taught.

I mean, people get into these conversations and it is just

pathetic.

I mean, and I can't blame him.

Again, all the pre-programming in Hollywood, particularly, and we've been, we've been so ready for this.

Working, working.

Yes.

But, but there's a light at the end of the tunnel because everyone is now seeing all these things going wrong.

They're seeing

anything.

Yeah, now they're seeing it.

And it doesn't matter because the pivot is upon us.

The pivot is here.

The first ever Global Quantum Forum bringing together leaders in technology from 20 countries, highlighting the work being done to make Chicago the world's quantum technology capital.

This technology

is in our potential.

It could lead to breakthroughs in major economic sectors from energy, healthcare, cybersecurity, finance.

Wait a minute.

I thought AI was going to fix all that.

I thought that was LLM and ChatGPT and OpenAI.

Now we have to wait for quantum to do all this?

This sounds, this doesn't sound right.

It could lead to breakthroughs in major economic sectors.

from energy, healthcare, cybersecurity, finance, and more.

Last year, Governor J.B.

Pritzker announced a major investment in developing the old U.S.

Steel site on the south side into the Illinois Quantum Microelectronics Park.

The 128-acre campus is now home to three companies, including Inflection, which announced today it will build the world's first utility-scale quantum computer based on neutral atom technology.

Neutral Atom Technology!

It'll help us change the way that we measure, change the way we sense our world.

Our quantum sensors can precisely measure the world in ways that we never thought possible, enabling things like the ability to navigate without using GPS.

Well, we couldn't do that for a while.

Which will come in really handy if you're not sure.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

He has a punchline here.

He has a punchline.

Precisely measure the world in ways that we never thought possible, enabling things like the ability to navigate without using GPS, which will come in really handy if you're ever driving on lower whacker.

Governor Pritzker projects a $60 billion economic impact for Illinois and the creation of 30,000 jobs.

This is hypercharged, supercharged.

Hypercharged, supercharged.

Woo, baby.

An endeavor to bring jobs, to bring economic opportunity to the area.

The Global Quantum Forum runs through tomorrow when there will be discussions on AI and human health and medicine.

Hey, by the way, I want to mention there's been ways to navigate before GPS.

Yeah, with a sextant.

Well, now, no, there's also

a map.

A map.

A map works.

Also, there's a, if anybody remembers the E-Tac, look that up, people.

The E-TAC.

What was the E-TAC?

The E-TAC was a system you put in your car, and

it had maps built in, and

it would do a major and turn type of navigation where if you wanted to go to some place, you'd go a mile this way, and then you take a left, and you'd go a quarter mile, and then you're an eighth of a mile this way, that way.

I'm looking this up.

I don't remember the E-Tac.

Yeah, this was a Nolan Bushnell product.

E-TAC.

Oh, here we go.

1985.

The independent U.S.-based

vendor

automotive navigation system equipped with digital maps, mapping software.

Sunnyville.

Okay.

All right.

Who was this guy?

Nolan Bushnell.

Yeah.

You know a lot.

Okay.

So what do you do?

You know a lot.

You do.

It was, oh, it was based on an 8088 system.

Woo!

256K of RAM, baby.

Didn't take that much.

Had a cassette.

It worked.

I had a gun.

So it worked.

A cassette tape drive with digital maps.

when i was a kid

when i was a kid we used cassette tapes kansas city standard

i want to know how it works how did it what was the oh use a digital compass oh okay and had two wheel sensors this was quite a deal that was basically dead reckoning it dead reckoning

okay well that works didn't need gps and it did the same job that most elaborate in fact i thought it did a better job than the stuff i once in a while I'm in San Francisco where the GPS system is telling me on a different street.

This is so good.

This is fantastic.

Well, the more you know on the No Agenda Show, fabulous.

And so I took a buddy of mine up to Beck, and he works at a hyperscaler.

And I'm trying to under, you know, which of course is an AI company.

And he does sales.

He has one huge customer.

And I'm like,

always a problem.

Well, not for him.

He likes it.

Well, until the customer bails.

Nah, but

they won't.

This is the whole point.

This is what he's telling me.

He's saying, this is all about getting their data into our sales.

And it's not really a customer.

It's a partner.

What do you mean?

You got one customer and you're that tight when they're never going to bail.

It's a partner.

It's not a customer.

Right.

Well, what he does is he services the customer all day.

And I say, so what's the AI part?

He says, it's really bull crap.

He says, we just want, we're, so, yeah, he says, it's bull crap.

We're a hyperscaler.

So what we really do is we just, we just want to get their data into our data center because once we have their data, well, that's kind of it.

And then if they want to use compute

from Google or compute from Azure or compute from Open AI, they're agnostic.

Okay, you just

spin up an instance, but the data, this is all about data capture.

This is the real fight because there's so much data being created.

And the number one competitor of all these guys is Oracle.

That's it.

And Oracle just has such a lock on every all your data belong to us, has such a lock on the data, and they charge exorbitant fees.

And that's why Larry Ellis is like, oh, yeah, we can do AI and then we'll have a drone kill you when you're speeding.

Stay with Oracle.

This has very little to do with AI.

It's all about getting people's data.

It's a race for the data.

And yeah,

of course, there's some slicing and dicing of data.

If anything, it's machine learning.

He says, we just put an AI sticker on everything.

It's machine learning.

So you can.

slice it up into blocks and like, okay, great.

I know when, you know, when to charge someone a penny more for a kilowatt hour on their

on their home electricity bill.

It's highly unimpressive.

And all they do is say, oh, you want to throw an LLM on that?

Okay.

Which he says is really expensive.

He said, so a part of what they do is they have a gatekeeper.

And it's who's allowed to use what LLM and for how long, because you get guys within these companies, they're looking at their own data, which they now have given to this hyperscaler, and they fire up Open AI.

At the end of the month, there's a $100,000 bill for all this experimentation he's been doing.

So this is not really built on sound business practices.

Yet.

Yeah.

Yet.

Yet.

Okay.

Oh, yeah.

Well, here's a last example.

Well, AI has been a major talking point of Trump administration health officials saying that it's going to streamline work, even at the FDA, increase the speed of drug approvals.

And this comes at a time that the Department of Health and Human Services has cut thousands of workers across health agencies.

But conversations with employees at the FDA who are familiar with this tool suggest perhaps it's at an earlier stage maybe than is being promised, at least when it comes to using it for things like drug approvals.

One FDA employee telling us, quote, anything that you don't have time to double-check is unreliable.

It hallucinates confidently.

Another employee is saying, quote, AI is supposed to save our time, but I guarantee you that I waste a lot of extra time just due to the heightened vigilance that I have to have because it can sometimes hallucinate these fake or misrepresented studies.

And so what we're hearing is that perhaps it can be useful for maybe summarizing meetings or helping with emails, but it's not yet at the point where it can analyze data that's been submitted by a company on a drug or a product, for example.

The FDA does say that it's working on updating it, but we had a conversation with FDA Commissioner Dr.

Marty McCary about where this stands right now.

Here's what he said.

The main purpose in which it's used, according to many of the scientists that I talk to, is its organization ability.

It is identifying a study in the literature.

And so it's the responsibility of the scientific reviewer to click on that link that ELSA provides and look at the study and read the abstract.

You have to determine what is reliable information that I can make major decisions based on.

And I think we do a a great job of that.

So, this is a tool called ELSA that was introduced in early June.

Still, clearly in the early days, and the FDA is saying it's working on updating it.

But at this point, according to this great reporting from our DC colleague Sarah Overmaul, maybe not at the point that it is speeding up drug approvals to a great degree.

Of course, it's not.

It's not going to.

Play my clip because there's a little screwball ending to this clip on the Trump AI meetup.

Meetup.

President Trump vowing to stop adversaries like China from using AI to push values contrary to our own.

He's signing new executive orders and unveiling a White House action plan to boost the American AI industry.

Joining us now live is NTD's White House correspondent, Mari Otsu.

Good evening, Mari.

What is the latest from the AI summit?

Good evening, Tiff.

Yes, currently, President Trump is speaking at the Winning the AI Race Summit here in Washington just after his administration unveiled today a comprehensive AI action plan.

Key features of this plan include targeting AI models with political bias and making it easier for companies to build data centers.

President Trump declares that America must win the AI race.

Take a listen.

I'm here today to declare that America is going to win it.

We're going to work hard.

We're going to win it.

Because we will not allow any foreign nation to beat us.

Our children will not live on a planet controlled by the algorithms of the

adversaries advancing values and interests contrary to our own.

And right now we're leading China very substantially in AI.

Press Secretary Levitt said in her briefing earlier today that she does not think that the president supports federal agencies contracting with Elon Musk's AI company.

Elon.

Elon Musk.

Our children are controlled by the algorithms, President Trump.

Yes, that's true.

But what do you think?

They're cutting off Elon and his rock AI or whatever, they're Twitter AI.

They gave him a contract.

They said they're going to cut him off.

Nah, he's in the $200 million contract, which is peanuts.

One of our producers, Scott,

he really wants to help the show.

He says he asked ChatGPT, how could the podcast no agenda use AI to bring their media deconstruction message to the people of the world and help them decouple from the mass hypnosis of the current media landscape?

Would you like to hear some of these ideas?

Oh, brother.

I could create an AI-powered media deconstruction engine for you.

It would be an open source tool that mimics their media deconstruction process using large-scale.

We have a process, apparently.

Oh, here's our process.

It is.

This is how they do it.

Who is pushing the story?

What's omitted or emphasized?

How emotional language is shaping perception.

The output would be no agenda style reports that anyone can generate for any news article or broadcast.

I can hear Daryl sharpening his pencil already.

Yeah.

Yeah, Daryl's on it.

Or we should create, we should launch a daily AI-generated briefing in the No Agenda voice.

Pull-top stories.

No agenda has a voice.

I guess.

Pull-top stories from global media automatically generate side-by-side official narrative versus NA-style deconstruction.

This is a new version of Doug, your old buddy.

Include links to source, audio, and video clips idealing with Adam's jingles and auto inserted for humor.

Oh, that'll work.

And then, of course, AI clone of Adam and John, which is a light touch and satirical.

Train the voices.

And then train the voices to do short TikTok and Instagram reels explaining media tricks.

Make a browser extension, a trigger tracker.

Wow.

But you're already, you're kind of losing me now because it sounds like it's turning into work.

How about localize no-agenda deconstruction squads?

Use AI to build a template toolkit for fans in other countries.

Create mini podcast kits with local media inputs.

I like the deconstruction circuit.

I think we could take over the world with this with this idea.

And then of course we need the gamified narrative watch app.

Anyway,

gamified narrative watch app?

Yes, a mobile app that turns media analysis into a game.

Users score points by tagging manipulative headlines, identifying who benefits, spotting coincidences, monthly leaderboards, jingle rewards, unlockable clips from past episodes.

Unlock what it would do is

unlock clips.

Tie it into the value-for-value model.

Gamers earn sats or merch.

What?

Merch.

Merch.

Sounds like going to cost us money.

Yes.

So that's, there you go.

The AI is already helping us expand our business and we're ready for next.

They're helping us with suggestions.

Yes, suggestions.

Exactly.

You know, and the thing that ChatGPT has started doing, and this is just a little tip,

you can tell something is generated by ChatGPT specifically when it does bullet points, like one, two, three, four, five, six.

It has a little icon next to each bullet point.

Have you noticed this?

No.

You'll start to see it everywhere.

People will write you an email and it has all these bullet points with little icons next to it.

Listen, no human being in their right mind goes out of their way to find a little brain icon, a little world icon, a little briefcase icon.

No, it's too much work.

Of course, there's too many emojis out there.

Yeah, but they're putting it into emails, into PDF documents, into presentations.

That's a giveaway.

You use ChatGPT.

You know, we should do a paper.

Oh, here we go.

Talking about work, yeah.

Well, you might be right, but maybe I can do a subset column.

But we have to identify

all the giveaways, all the,

it's not really a giveaway, it's a clues, clue, a tell, tells, all the, all the chat GPT and other systems, tells,

and document them and turn it into a small, uh, a small book for professors.

There you go.

Yeah.

Right after we do the microphone company, right after the vinegar book.

No.

Right after the podcast awards, real money in that.

You've been hounding me for years.

All great ideas.

By the way,

which of those ideas isn't great?

They're all great.

And next Thursday, we will have a two-hour plus special on the No Agenda Show of all of our most excellent exit strategies.

Oh, it's Thursday.

I thought it was Sunday show.

Yeah, I thought it was Sunday too.

It's Thursday.

Oh, you gave me the wrong date.

I'm sorry.

Yeah, my mistake.

It's Thursday.

I'm all confused.

But I think the Matrix is moving dates around, you know,

trying to confuse us.

Hey, with that, I want to thank you for your courage.

Say in the morning to you, the man who just put the C in compute.

Say hello to my friend on the other end, the one, the only, Mr.

John C.

DeMoray.

Yeah, well, in the morning to you, and Demorias Chip C boost of the graph feet and air subs in the water, Davis Nights out there.

Say in the morning to the trolls, control room on the capital trails.

Oh, this is not good.

1653.

Yeah, that's low.

Isn't it?

Yeah.

I think it's...

There's something in the air.

No, well, COVID's in the air.

I think I had COVID for the past five days.

What?

Yeah.

Did you do a test?

Did you shove a thing up your knees?

Please, no.

Please, no, of course.

You just spit in a bottle and spit in the tooth.

No, I had

a glass?

I had a sore throat and I was run down.

Could you smell?

Yeah, no.

No.

You couldn't smell.

No, I couldn't smell.

You couldn't smell.

I can smell you.

I can smell again today.

I can smell again.

I can smell again.

But I think it's because

the troll room website was broken.

And so you got COVID from that?

No, I think that's why people have stayed away.

I mean, people were texting me on Tuesday night.

I can't listen to DH Unplugged Live.

I can't listen.

I can't listen.

The troll room is broken.

And we didn't miss anything because all you would hear is Andrew Horowitz being butthurt about me not telling him I'm coming to Florida.

What's up with that?

He didn't tell him you're coming to Florida.

He feels butthurt.

Yeah, but what kind of a child is he?

He thinks it's funny to have a feud feud with you.

Oh, well, here I am keeping it up, and now you're just going to give it away for no reason.

What kind of a

why did you do that?

I just thought it was a good idea.

He literally texted me.

Hey,

but you coming to Florida?

I'm like, yeah, but we're going to be in like the middle of Florida in some horrible, Godforsaken place.

So I'm not going to be near you.

He says, oh, well, I'm going to make it a big deal on the show.

Keep it up.

You're engagement farming.

He's behind the scenes.

This is what we're supposed to do.

We're transparent.

He's engagement farming.

I mean, his idea of a scam like that is minor.

He needs help.

I thought the whole thing was suspicious when he dropped it on me.

Of course.

He needs help.

He needs help in doing this stuff.

He's bored.

He's bored because, oh, the halibut was 110 pounds.

It was like bringing up a Volkswagen from the bottom of the ocean.

He caught a halibut.

110-pounder.

That thing is amazing.

Did you see a picture of it?

Yeah, I did.

It's the whole bottom of the boat.

Those things are horrible-looking fishes.

Yeah, they're tasty, though.

I consider it a tasteless fish.

With a little bit of butter?

No, yeah, they're tasting butter.

I mean, the halibut is...

People eat it just for the halibut.

It tastes like butter.

Tastes like butter.

It's because you got butter all over it.

I got last night,

one of our favorite restaurants.

We went out with some friends.

Actually, the friends who watch Phoebe when we're gone.

And of course, they just do it as a favor.

So we take them out to dinner at Cabernet Grill.

If you're in Fredericksburg, Cabernet Grill, it's a little off the beaten path, but it's, i.e., not on Main Street, but it's 25% the price of anything on Main Street.

Little tip for you.

Well, it sounds to me, because I've looked at these menus with you, Fredericksburg seems like a ripoff.

Big-time ripoff.

Oh, yeah.

It's horrible.

Except for Backwoods Barbecue, which is also in the same general area as...

And we're talking five minutes from Main Street, so it's not a big deal.

Backwoods BBQ is great, particularly steak night on Fridays.

As I've always said, the

Bavarian place,

which I forget the name of.

It'll come to me.

And

Cabernet Grill.

So Cabernet Grill,

they do steaks at 1800 degrees,

which is, and it's real fast.

Yeah, I would think so.

But last night, upon recommendation of Rich, my favorite server,

I had a sous vide.

Shout out to Rich.

With a Y.

I had a sous vide

chicken that was flash-fried.

And, you know, I'm not a fan.

of the, you know, putting your food in a, in a warm bathtub for

hours.

It was quite tasty.

Oh, sous-id, I've had it.

I don't like it.

I'm totally with you on this.

I think sous-vid's dangerous.

It's a dangerous method of cooking, but I've had it a number of times, and it's always fabulous.

Yeah, especially

the flash-fried.

And they were really,

they sous vide the thing so it's cooked and they fry it after that.

Is it double-cooked?

Exactly.

Just pssh.

to get a nice crust around it.

They also got into the habit now, they are

doing chicken-fried deviled eggs.

That's an interesting meal.

At least in the egg books, too many eggs.com.

Is it in the egg book?

It should be in the egg book.

Is it in the I'm pretty sure it is.

Too many eggs.com.

Anyway, Friedhelms, that's the Bavarian place.

Although they just jacked up their prices recently.

It's insane here.

I'm telling you.

It's no good.

Stay away.

I don't know why they do this.

They do this in Port Angeles, Washington.

It's the same thing.

These restaurants think they're in New York City.

They don't have the same overhead as they do in Manhattan.

It's the same price as Manhattan.

It's the same price or higher in some places.

Yeah, it's no good.

It's no good.

No good.

And people keep coming.

Oh, it's so cute here.

Fredericksburg.

Let's go to a winery.

Oh, you mean the drinking barn?

Okay.

There are some wineries here, actual wineries, but few and far between.

So the trolls are listening at trollroom.io.

It is working again.

Thank you very much to VoidZero and the crew for getting that up and running.

And

CodeMonkey, I think he's the one that was responsible for fixing it.

Of course, you can listen on the modern podcast apps, podcastapps.com.

We recommend you do that so you get a bat signal notification when we go live.

These are the only apps that actually do live, which is kind of cool.

All the other apps, you're waiting around for hours and you don't get anything live.

Even when we post it, it can take a long time.

So use a modern podcast app at podcastapps.com.

Value for value is, uh, I explained this to the kids yesterday.

They were like, really?

I don't need ads?

Yeah.

No, they, they were all in it.

They liked the value for value idea.

They thought that was

not a new idea.

But they're 24.

What are they doing?

Churches have been using it.

They go to church, it sounds like to me.

Every single one of them.

Well, then they had no value for value.

When I said, do you know who the king is?

They went, oh, yeah, Jesus, my Lord and Savior.

No, I mean, I was talking about Elvis.

No, no, Mr.

Curry, you're wrong.

Yeah, they understand the value for value model, but it was good to call it value for value.

And I sent them to our website, value number4, value.info, so they can really, you know, understand the new international lifestyle that we have created.

I find it hard to believe that those kids didn't know who Elvis Presley was.

I'm telling you.

They were like, uh,

no.

When you think about it, I mean, I barely witnessed Elvis alive.

Barely.

What did he die in?

In 73, 74?

So I was 10.

I remember my mom crying.

So it's really three generations removed.

Yeah, no wonder they don't know who Elvis is.

I mean, you even, we're only one generation removed, Boomer.

And you have references that I don't know about.

Yeah.

So.

Anyway,

we like the value for value model because people can help us in many ways.

For instance, try and help us with an exit strategy by typing something into ChatGPT and sending it to me.

It's very valuable.

Thank you, Scott.

Appreciate it.

Or you can type in something nonsensical into an AI and create art for us

because that's all it is.

And no one does it better.

Well, Darren O'Neal's pretty good.

But Francisco Scaramanga, a two-in-a-row choice for his AI-generated artwork.

Let's see if he gets it a hat-trick, though.

For episode 1783, we titled that Dad Gum.

By the way, Dad Goom.

I got something on Dad Goom.

I bet you did.

Well, that's Tim Burchett, who said the Dad Gum.

Then we got a note from Tom in Georgia.

When I saw the title for Sunday Show, I immediately thought about my friend Tim Burchett.

And I was right.

Tim and I grew up together in Knoxville, Tennessee.

We played in the creek looking for salamanders and crawdaddies.

He kept exotic exotic animals like piranhas and caiman and alligators in his bedroom.

We also used to go rolling neighbor's trees.

I don't know what that is.

What is rolling the neighbor's trees?

I have no idea.

He got into government service after Knox County unfairly targeted him and a business he started.

One of the first bills he sponsored in Tennessee was a roadkill bill, which made it legal for you to keep any animal that you happened to run over with your car and you could take it home and eat it.

That's legal in Washington state.

As it should be.

As it should be.

He has remained true to himself and hasn't seen the need to be someone different than who he is.

He's a wonderful East Tennessee.

His wonderful East Tennessee colloquialisms are genuine, as is he.

Thanks and God bless from Tom in Georgia.

Yeah, well,

we'd like to.

Somebody else wrote in and said, do we miss the joke that he sounds exactly like Foghorn Leghorn?

Oh, he does.

He does.

I don't know about exactly, but yeah, he definitely has some of that.

But what a joke.

All the kids would be, huh?

Huh?

Who's Foghorn?

What?

Huh?

Come on.

They still play those old cartoons.

I'm very concerned about us.

Because our audience.

We have a niche audience of people who are connoisseurs of the old days.

No, is that it?

Okay, hang with us, folks.

We'll drag you to the end.

Kawabunga.

Dude.

Wow, Kawa Bunga, dude.

Even my daughter was like, well, that's okay, boomer.

What?

Okay, boomer.

Scaramanga need a made a.

I don't even know why we like this.

A horse poster of a horse podcasting now with true crime.

Were we on drugs?

What were we doing?

No, it's because it was so ludicrous.

Yeah.

Was there really nothing else that we liked?

There wasn't anything that compared to the ludicrous aspect of a horse that was podcasting.

It's a callback to the other, the podcast all over the place.

He's podcasting.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I mean, but there's literally nothing good.

It's all just like, meh, okay.

You know, like, Darren O'Neal has a chick on a computer screen saying, take a nap, boomer.

Come on, Darren.

Do better.

What else was there?

Me kissing you on the kiss cam.

Yeah, that's not going to be artwork.

That's for sure.

A lot of dad gums, but none of them really funny.

So,

what's that in your mouth?

Dad gum.

Did that come in later?

That's kind of funny.

Um, but yeah, and everything's orange.

The whole page is.

I think the orange thing is getting to be problematic.

It's all orange.

The people are orange.

Where's blue?

If it was fading toward blue, it would be better than orange.

Everything's orange.

The faces are orange.

The Macron brothers.

Did that just come in?

That's for today.

Yeah, there you go.

We're going to get sued.

Awesome.

No one's getting sued.

Thank you very much, Francisco Scaramanga.

And he also automates them later on X, which is kind of cool.

As part of the Value for Value.

Can we not submit automated pieces on this on the art generator?

If they're GIFs, yeah, and they'll work.

I don't know that it accepts a GIF because it turns everything into a

ping.

PING.

A PNG?

Ping.

P-I-N-G.

I don't know.

No, no, it's just P-N-G.

PING.

PING, PINGE.

There's no G-E.

There's no E, there's no ping.

I don't know.

I don't know.

It should.

Let's talk to Noah Generator.

Our generator producer.

Another fine.

I support

another fine value-for-value piece of work, and we appreciate it.

So once, here's the deal.

I guarantee guarantee it.

Once the

AI can do animated gifs.

Oh, we'll have a whole new level of artwork.

The whole page.

Yeah.

There'll be a point in the next year where the entire page of art-generated stuff from AI on this page will be all moving.

Okay.

Well, Sir Paul Couture, we'd love to see that happen.

No, I don't think he listens to the show.

I think in all of the...

Like Brunetti.

I don't think Brunetti listens to the show.

Well, we still credit him with the tip of the day.

And by the way, great production, Dana Brunetti, as you let John repeat a tip of the day.

What kind of producer are you?

There's no evidence of this.

There is evidence of this.

Yes,

the leather thing, you've done it as a tip of the day.

That's what some one person said.

Yeah,

the guy who does the tip of the day website.

I didn't see it.

No.

What's the name of that product again?

Lies.

What's the name of that product again?

Leather Honey.

Leather Honey.

I'm telling you, you've done it before.

No, you're mouthing.

You're repeating.

You're just repeating what somebody else said.

Okay, well, Mimi reminded me that

I have a rotation for these tips, and this is the cleaning product that I do every couple months.

Another cleaning product.

Beautiful.

Another cleaning product.

People need cleaning products.

People always can use a good cleaning product.

So that was 1773.

It wasn't even that long ago.

No, it wasn't.

It was a cleaning product.

It wasn't the same product.

Yes, it is.

Leather honey is a conditioner.

Listen, this is a good one.

It's been tested.

This is leather honey.

Boom.

Leather honey.

And that was episode 1773.

Well, you should have caught it on the fly.

I thought this is Dana Brunetti's job.

He's fired.

Find the executive producer or whatever he doesn't want to be called.

No, he was.

Anyway.

Yeah.

So what we'd like to do, what we'd like to do is,

wow, is this number right?

As we thank our executive producers

$50 in a bow.

Is this top number right?

Yeah.

Really?

You okay?

You're coughing.

No, I'm not.

I'm kind of choking.

Maybe you can take the first one because I need to.

Well, you caught me off guard there because I never take the first one.

But yeah, we got a guy who came in with $3,333.33.

Which is a rubberizer donation.

India, hang out, Mike.

Standby.

33, 33, 33.

Rubberizer out.

Wow.

Is he one of the boomers we're saving?

I don't know.

Where's this note here?

Wait, is this, let me see, this is.

Oh, man.

After writing this, all money not going to my knighthood should go to the Preserve Adams Tucker Laugh

Fund.

Okay.

That's a new fund.

Exit strategy.

Adams.

Tucker, Preserve Adams Tucker Laugh Fund.

Can you do it?

I just did it.

Yeah, but there there you go.

Yeah.

To Adam and John, first time.

This is, by the way, the donor.

Yes.

His name is Kevin.

Just playing Kevin, and he is in Portland, Oregon, which I think is great that we get a donation from Portland, Oregon.

First time,

the first time.

Big time.

Not a boner born in 79.

Not a boomer.

Not a boomer.

Oh, I said both.

I said not a boner.

Not Not a boomer.

Born in 79, since I've started listening.

Then he's got some little signal here.

I don't know what it is.

Two and a half years ago, I think.

Two and a half?

I can't tell.

I don't know.

I've taken it all in, including your

love of short notes.

Huh?

India Tango Mike.

Call in the Airstrike, John.

Yeah, the Airstrike request.

Love you to

Kevin, Portland, Oregon.

P.S.

I'd like to be known as as Sir Kevin, keeper of the

Spee?

Spec?

Spee?

I don't know if it's Spee or Spec.

I think it's.

You've got it down below, too.

It says, I think below it says.

This is very hard to read.

His writing is terrible.

Spadelgee.

Spatlegy is my 11-year-old.

Yes, Spee is my 11-year-old Black Lab.

Spee.

Oh, okay.

Who's dying of cancer?

Aw.

This is for us.

She listens to every show.

Oh, that's right.

This is the dog that listens to the show intently.

Hello, Spee.

Hello, Spee.

Spee?

Spee?

Woof.

Woof.

Come here.

Woof.

Come here.

Come here.

Good doggies.

I'm going to do an F cancer for Spee, even though he didn't ask for it.

I just want to throw that out there.

You've got karma.

Thank you.

Thank you so much, Kevin.

And give him the

idea.

I'll do it again.

airstrike.

What?

The airstrike.

What's the airstrike?

Don't we have a jingle that's an airstrike or something comes in and bombs something?

No, you're hallucinating like Chad GPT.

Well, it just said it on here, and I'm pretty sure we have one.

No, okay.

No, we don't.

Well, good.

Okay, well, we got our, yeah, he's got his brother.

Anyway, great.

Thanks for this donation.

Thank you very much.

We made our day.

Tynan or Tinin, Tynan, Rebbich, Marysville, washington what do you think it is tinin tin i think tinin adam and john i hope this message finds you well yes a lot of people are doing this now any game else i hope this i actually sent a memo uh this morning and ended it with thank you for your attention to this matter yeah perfect uh i'm a 22 year old welder and now we're talking

He uh supports us with $1,000 today.

I love it.

Just thought I'd mention that because you guys do on the show now and then.

Yes, we talk about welding all the time.

Anyway, I couldn't come up with a catchy welding-related night name, so I'm going to go with Sir Sigma.

If it's unavailable, Sir Steasy.

Well, Sir Sigma is fine.

If it pleases the peerage committee, it pleases the peerage committee.

I'll have Korean fried chicken and a corona with lime at the roundtable, please.

I'll keep listening as long as you keep putting it out.

18 more years.

Yeah.

Dream on.

Thank you very much, Tynan.

Hey, well, yellow.

And we will be knighting you in a bit.

Onward with Sir Pursuit of Peace and Tranquility, 333.33.

And he wrote a note himself.

Another is a check.

In the morning, boys.

Keeping it simple.

No jingles, no karma.

Sincerely, Sir Pursuit of Peace and Tranquility, Earl of the Lands of the Red Clay and the Cherry Trees.

Beautiful.

Anonymous

comes in with 333.33.

That's one of our favorite donations.

We always like that one.

And Anonymous says, Dear John and Adam, if you read my real name live, stop reading now.

Nope, we didn't.

I have been listening for over a decade and have donated before, but not enough.

Thank you for both providing an outside-the-bubble point of view for all these years.

I've taken the value-for-value model to heart and started a sub stack with a group called Canadian Value Investors.

It's focused on value-oriented investing ideas and company overviews, some actually being no agenda-inspired.

We just donated 333 US dollars, not Canadian pesos, and set up a 3333

promo, 33% discount for the subscriber, 33% for us, and 33% for both of you after Candinavian taxes.

And the link is CanadianvalueInvestors.com/slash agenda.

Thank you both again for all of your work.

P.S.

Please play a 33 magic number jingle.

33,

that's the magic number.

No agenda.

It's the magic number.

Next is the Larry Show, our buddy at the Larry Show.

Hey,

there, this is working again.

Yeah, that's that's it is

he writes.

This is another check that came in.

This is Larry, very smart because he knows his checks are great.

Yes, 233.33.

It is I,

Larry, 100% of thatlarry show.com and 50% of the Planet Raid Show.

That's what Darren.

The other half, of course, is Darren O'Neal, author of the brilliant idea, a national meetup.

Oh, brother.

Your

magniloquent duet has toiled for 17 years.

Isn't it time?

There must be a national meetup for no agenda.

This is the way you would say it is the way you talk.

It must be a national meetup for me.

No,

Larry doesn't talk like that.

No, but this is the way I would do it.

There must be a national meetup for no agenda, because I'm Larry.

That's the kind of voice he has.

And it's weirdly alluring cousin Planet Rage.

Oh, it is.

Oh, yeah.

They want the handover.

That's what they want.

Then we

deputize you guys.

Yeah, good dry jumps.

Okay.

Darren suggests the serene suburbs of centrally located Chicago.

Gee, I wonder why.

Slated sometime from mid-September to October after the summer heat and well before the icy roads and frostbite.

There, Noah Gennation will convene for the biggest gathering ever, an event to live forever in the glorious milestone of the sordid anals.

Oh, I'm sorry, tournaments of the world's greatest and longest-running show.

There's more to it.

Ideas for content game and Tom Boolery.

I think we should do bingo.

Bingo would work.

B2.

It's already late July.

We're working on plans, but it cannot happen without crackpot and buzzkill.

Life is short.

Carpy DM say yes.

As always, thanks for the peerless content and God bless Larry.

You know, what a perfect opportunity for a drone strike.

It's like, I don't think.

Yeah.

That's exactly what we're going to have to do.

There's those annoying guys from No Agenda and all of their fans.

Let's take out the whole show and fandom.

Let's drone them all.

Hmm.

Many times throughout the history of the show have people suggested a national meetup, and we've come to the conclusion, a couple of conclusions.

One, the only place to do this where you could get a room big enough is Vegas with enough flights.

It had to be Vegas.

Yeah, it had to be Vegas, a convention town.

Now, that's dangerous for a number of reasons.

John and I, of course, are recovering gambling addicts, so we don't think that's a good idea.

That's not true.

And

what everyone always wants is what we won't do.

Because if you say, well, what do you want to have happen besides, what do we all wear funny hats and masks?

And

we all fist bump each other.

Well, we could, you know, I think what would work, and I'd be just beside myself to even suggest this because I wouldn't want to do it, is it's one of these clone meetups where you have a bunch of speakers and they're up there yakking about one thing or another.

Yeah, we should invite Scott Horton, Dave Smith.

Yeah, all the Baldos guys.

And they could go up and give, they all have 45 minutes.

You know, no,

what everybody wants, it always comes down to the same thing.

This always kills the idea.

Yeah,

you guys can do the show live on stage.

Oh, yeah, that's the idea killer.

That's always what they want to see.

That's it.

I think

I would rather do

raise half a million dollars and we'll turn the cameras on for one show.

And you'll be sorry.

So, what will happen?

Well, so

I like the idea.

I like the idea that you should just have everyone come in.

Everybody does a show except us.

We do the show that Sunday.

That would be great.

Yeah, you have it just a

screens.

Well, no, we do the show that Sunday from our individual hotel rooms, audio only.

And everybody else does their show on stage.

Yeah.

Okay.

This is going nowhere.

Kira Reed.

Kira Reed is in,

is it Assinet or Assonet?

What do you think?

Massachusetts.

I would say Assinet.

Assinet.

$210.60.

I hope this message finds you well.

First off, thank you both for keeping our amygdalas small.

After two years of sustaining donations at the magic number of $3333, today's donation of $200 officially takes me to Damehood.

However, I'd like to pull a switcheroo and instead, yep, switcheroo, instead turn it into a knighting and a dedouching.

You've been dedouched.

For my smoking hot husband, Jonathan Reed.

And he also has a birthday.

He's getting crazy over here.

I know he's on the birthday list.

I'll check in a moment.

The associate executive producership, of course.

I hit him in the mouth.

He married me, and we've never had a fight.

Well, there you go.

I can't imagine going through life punching people in the mouth without you.

She's saying that to Jonathan.

You are truly my knight in shining armor.

For the time being, let him be known as Sir We the People's Beefcake.

Name change to follow.

For the roundtable, he'd love a cold Pepsi and Swiss rolls.

What's a what's a, what are Swiss rolls?

I have no idea.

Sandwich rolls, like bread bowl rolls.

And don't forget him to add, don't forget to add him to the birthday list for this show.

724.

Happy birthday, baby.

Could I get him a dedouching?

We just did the dedouching.

Then she also wants a boogity, boogity, boogity and a goat karma.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

ITM, Miss Kara Reed from Taxachusetts.

You've got

Karma.

And I checked, he's on the list.

Eli the coffee guy in Bensonville, Illinois, is on the list with 20724.

One of the great things he says that I love about the No Agenda is that you two have some of the best stories.

Adam, I know you just told the Ozzy Osborne Please a story recently, but do you have another one?

And actually, Adam

anticipated this note and gave us a story at the beginning of the show.

Yep.

I may be more of a hip-hop guy, but I still have respect for the rock and roll legend.

By the way, did you guys know Ozzy was allergic to coffee?

Wait, Eli the Coffee Guy killed Ozzy Osborne?

Even so, he still enjoyed a good cup of black gold in the morning.

You can too.

I'm out.

Uh, stand.

Just visit gigawattcoffee roasters.com and use the code ITM20 for 20% off your order.

That's gigawattcoffee roasters.com.

Stay caffeinated, says Eli the Coffee Guy.

Very nice.

Jim comes in from Massachusetts with a Bitcoin donation.

This note is for my donation of

zero point zero zero one seven Bitcoin, two hundred dollars.

Thank you for your constant hard work to decipher and shed light on what is happening in the world through your media deconstruction, Jim says.

It's always interesting and entertaining.

I also appreciate the not infrequent exhortations to not become agitated about narratives we see in the news.

Not only is a lot of it intended to outrage for some agenda, there's also, there's so much more happening of importance in the real world that we can have a great impact upon.

Finally, I'll give a shameless plug for God, who made the cosmos and everything in it, who placed in my heart a moral standard and the ability to

see I and the world far short of it.

But who, because he is who he is, also provided a solution for the penalty and power of evil, a solution we desperately need in the form of Jesus, the deliverer, for everyone who would acknowledge their need.

Prayers for the both of you and the whole Noah community from Jim from Massachusetts.

Thank you, Jim.

Appreciate that.

Another Bitcoin donation, no name.

No.

Yes.

It's not on the list.

It says strike.

It's not 200 bucks.

Oh, you're right.

What am I?

It's on the list, but I'm just out of my mind.

I'm sorry.

I was so excited about another Bitcoin donation.

You're right.

It's not on the list.

It didn't show up at the bank.

Bull crap.

I've gotten one donation so far.

You need to talk to Jay.

She's the one.

She's holding it back.

She's stacking sats without your permission.

It could be.

Thank you to these executive and associate executive producers.

Besides the wonderful support,

we, of course, which we appreciate and we want to show our gratitude.

We also give you a real official title for this stuff.

Don't let it go to waste like Dana Bernetti.

Please, use it and be proud of it and continue to produce the show.

It's $200 or above.

You are an associate executive producer of this episode 1784, of the No Agenda Show.

$300 or above, you are an executive producer, and you should be proud of it.

You can put that on imdb.com.

If you don't have an imdb.com, you can open it with that.

We will be thanking the rest of our donors $50 and above at the second segment.

Thank you again for the support.

I have a 3x3 that relates to our earlier segment.

And now it's time for 3x3.

He's on the ball.

Experiment by JCD.

Comparing stories from ABC, CBS, and MBC.

3x3.

Yeah, let's see any other podcast do that on the Time Top 100.

Huh?

All right.

Top 100.

Top 100 Best Podcast Most Influential.

All right.

You know, those lists are useless, dude.

Nobody goes to those podcasts.

No, and you know what they did?

You click on the link for each podcast.

There's not even a link to the podcast.

It's an empty list.

It's just a list of an icon.

You can't even click to listen.

I know.

Let's start with ABC.

All right.

ABC is up first in the 3x3 for today's show, kids.

Tonight, as the White House struggles to turn the page from the Epstein investigation, the Justice Department announcing they will speak with Jeffrey Epstein's former companion, Ghelane Maxwell, who's now serving a 20-year prison sentence for trafficking underage girls to the sex offender.

Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanch, who until recently was President Trump's personal attorney, says he plans to meet with Maxwell soon, saying if Ghelene Maxwell has information about anyone who committed crimes against victims, the FBI and the DOJ will hear what she has to say.

For years, Trump socialized with Epstein and Maxwell and was asked about her when she was arrested in 2020.

Do you feel that she's going to turn in powerful men?

How do you see that working out?

I don't know.

I haven't really been following it too much.

I just wish her well, frankly.

In an interview with Axios shortly after, he doubled down.

Ms.

President Ghelane Maxwell has been arrested on allegations of child sex trafficking.

Why would you wish such a person well?

I don't know that, but I do know that she has.

She's been arrested for that.

Her

friend or boyfriend

was either killed or committed suicide in jail.

She's now in jail.

Uh-huh.

Yeah, I wish her well.

I'd wish you well.

I'd wish a lot of people well.

Good luck.

Trump's efforts to shake the Epstein case have only increased scrutiny of their friendly relationship of more than a decade.

Epstein was asked about it in a 2010 deposition in a civil suit.

Have you ever had a personal relationship with Donald Trump?

What do you mean by personal relationships, sir?

Have you socialized with him?

Yes, sir.

Yes?

Yes, sir.

Have you ever socialized with Donald Trump in the presence of

females under the age of 18?

Though I'd like to answer that question, at least today, I'm going to have to assert my fifth, sixth, and fourteenth Amendment right, sir.

When Epstein was arrested in 2019, Trump said they'd had a falling out and hadn't spoken in 15 years.

Wow.

I hadn't heard that.

Did I miss that audio so much?

They dug that one up on ABC.

They're going after Trump, ABC.

Well,

they got the gays running after him

on the Kimmel show.

That's all gays.

It's the gays against Trump.

All right, let's go to CBS.

In announcing plans to meet with Ghelane Maxwell, Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche says he wants to ask, what do you know?

And he plans to do so because

no lead is off limits.

Maxwell is the former girlfriend and co-conspirator of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, a one-time associate of President Trump who died by suicide almost six years ago as he faced more federal charges.

The push to speak with Maxwell comes in.

They were acquaintances.

He wasn't an associate.

He didn't work for Trump.

No, but they didn't work.

Sounds good.

An associate.

They used the word associate instead of acquaintance.

Are they massaging the message?

I think they're doing a little trickery there with that massage.

Use of the word

Associate.

Massaging the massage.

I'm an associate of President Trump, who died by suicide almost six years ago as he faced more federal charges.

The push to speak with Maxwell comes as Trump, under pressure from loyal supporters, wants all credible evidence in the case released.

But today, he claimed he didn't know about plans to talk to Maxwell.

I don't know anything about it.

They're going to what, meet her?

Their deputy attorney general

reached out to Ghelene Maxwell's attorney asking for a new interview.

I don't know about it, but I think it's something that would be, sounds appropriate to do, yeah?

Blanche is a former federal prosecutor who also represented Trump last year in his so-called hush money trial.

Do you have any concern that your Deputy Attorney General, who's your former attorney, would be conducting the interview given?

Seeking to divert attention from the Epstein case, Trump accused former President Barack Obama of treason for how he and his administration investigated allegations of Russian interference in the 2016 elections.

It's time to go after people.

Maxwell is appealing her conviction for sex trafficking to the what did he say?

He didn't just throw a like a net pop in there in there.

Trump saying, It's time to go after people.

President Barack Obama of treason for how he and his administration investigated allegations of Russian interference in the 2016 elections.

It's time to go after people.

Maxwell is appealing her conviction for sex trafficking to the Supreme Court.

That's good.

She spoke to CBS Paramount's See It It Now Studios in August 2022.

Meeting Epstein was the greatest mistake of my life, and obviously, if I could go back today,

I would avoid meeting him.

Tom Dupree is a former senior Justice Department official.

Well, this is very unusual.

And look, it's an effort by the Justice Department to at least create the appearance that they are continuing to pursue the Epstein case.

My guess is that there's a political calculation in this, that by pushing forward hard on Maxwell to try to get that additional information they perhaps can reduce some of the pressure on the administration to release the Epstein files as a whole here's what we need I just realized it's time for the Oprah Jelaine Maxwell interview

that's what we're looking for here

well that would do something yeah that would give the people something

So we can't say she would start off by saying, we spoke with Jelaine Maxwell at her penitentiary.

And we hear, here it is, unedited.

Unedited.

We cut out the bits about me and Stedman.

Where is Stedman, by the way?

I want to know where Stedman is.

What's up with that guy?

And where's the rest of Oprah?

What do you do with the rest of her?

And

then she'll say, you can make up your own mind.

You know, something open-ended like that.

Yeah, that's how you do it.

And then, and Jelaine will cry.

Oh, yeah, she has to.

Gotta cry.

Gotta cry.

You know, keep it in the family.

Yeah.

Yeah, keep it in the family.

Okay, last clip.

Tonight, Attorney General Pam Bondi announcing her top deputy expects to meet soon with Ghelane Maxwell, the convicted accomplice of notorious sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein.

Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche posting, President Trump has told us to release all credible evidence.

If Ghelane Maxwell has information about anyone who committed crimes against victims, the FBI and the DOJ will hear what she has to say.

It's the latest effort by the Trump administration to diffuse the uproar among some Trump supporters over the handling of the DOJ files on Epstein.

President Trump today saying he would support it.

I don't know about it.

I think it's something that would be, sounds appropriate to do.

It's

sort of a witch hunt, just a continuation of the witch hunt.

Hours later, the House Oversight Committee approved a Republican-led motion to subpoena Maxwell.

She wants to tell us who all is going to Epstein Island.

I think that would be interesting.

Tonight, the House Speaker, Republican Mike Johnson, says he'll send lawmakers home early for their summer break, delaying any votes demanded by Democrats and some Republicans that would call for the release of more Epstein files.

They were actually ending this week early because they're afraid to cast votes on the Jeffrey Epstein issue.

We should release the Epstein files.

Johnson slamming it as political games.

The Democrats are trying to play gotcha politics right now.

Has anyone forgotten?

They had all these files the entire time.

They sat on everything Epstein related for four long years while President Biden was in office.

Last week, the Justice Department asked a federal court to unseal secret grand jury records in the Epstein case.

Today, the judges said they need more information to make a ruling.

Tonight, Maxwell's lawyer confirmed discussions with the DOJ, thanking President Trump, quote, for his commitment to uncovering the truth in this case.

But some Democrats argue Maxwell, who's appealing her 20-year sentence, may be looking for a presidential pardon.

Oh,

yeah.

Well, somebody got that part of it right.

Finally, there you go.

Looking for a pardon.

Yeah, that's what you do.

The whole thing's a scam.

And talking about the do-nothing

John C.

Dvorak, john at dvorak.org with your whole thing's a scam.

This whole thing's a scam.

My favorite guy in Congress that is the worst of the worst, Republican do-nothing, is Comer.

Yeah.

Comer does these investigations.

He has these people there.

He's the one who has all these guys coming in for the Biden investigation.

They're all taking the fifth.

Yeah.

And he's the one who's, if you remember, oh, we're getting to the bottom of the Hunter Biden laptop.

We've got the, we've got the, we've connected the dots.

We see all the money with all the money for the Biden crime family's gone.

What's gone?

No.

China, burisma.

where's Snowden?

Yeah,

how about Julian Assange?

All of it.

It's just like nothing comes of any of it.

So, you know, when people say we're living in the Matrix, it's kind of true.

I mean, all we do is just go from scandal to scandal to scandal.

We're whipsawed around.

Oh, look over here.

And oh, look over here.

And we get tired.

And then we, and let's give them phones so we can get it to them all the time.

When they wake up, first thing in the morning, you'll see more of this.

You go to bed, you're watching more of it.

You dream about it.

It's all the same thing.

I wonder how many people that listen to this show or any show

go to bed, the last thing they do is they look at their phone and check their mail.

99%.

I think it's a lot.

Yeah,

that's 99%.

Well, that's a lot.

Yeah.

Oh, I'm sure of it.

And it's the worst.

No.

No.

Does Tina?

Nope.

Nope.

In fact, we.

Well, I know I don't because my phone's in a drawer downstairs.

We enter the bedroom and the phones are out,

as in they're face down on silent.

Oh, but they're on silent, but they're in the well, unlike you, we use them

as our alarm.

And in case of an emergency, we'll have a

if the power goes out, we'll have a flashlight and an emergency communications device.

So we won't have to hug the wall like you do.

So it's the last time the power went out on you.

Well, I have a generator, so it would only be for 30 seconds.

Oh, so you don't need it at all for what you just said.

But I'm answering the question.

We do not.

And in the morning, when we get up, we do not look at our phones.

We do our Bible study first for about 45 minutes or an hour.

And then we look at our phones as we're prepared for the day.

Sounds like the same thing to me.

I have one

off-beat clip.

But wait, before you move away, I have a little Trump Epstein-Obama clip.

Oh, okay.

We'll stay on the subject.

It has a little gotcha in there, what I just thought was interesting.

No, I have no concern.

He's a very talented person.

He's very smart.

I didn't know that they were going to do it.

I don't really follow that too much.

It's sort of a witch hunt, just a continuation of the witch hunt.

The witch hunt that you should be talking about is they caught President Obama absolutely cold, Tulsi Gabbard.

What they did to this country in 2016, starting in 2016, but going up all the way up to 2020 of the election.

They tried to rig the election, and they got caught.

And there should be very severe consequences for that.

You know, when we caught Hillary Clinton, I said, you know what?

Let's not go too far here.

It's the ex-wife of a president.

And I thought it was sort of terrible.

What?

The ex-wife of a president?

That's an interesting

gaff.

Do you think he meant the wife of an ex-president, but he said the ex-wife of a president instead?

Yeah, well, that's what he'd have to assume that.

Yeah, anyway.

Unless Clinton's dead.

I just thought it was an interesting catch.

Yeah, that was a good catch.

Gaff.

Interesting gaffe.

All right.

On to your weird clip.

Okay, here's the.

I try to do these stories that are not picked up by the media, which seemed to me if I was the editor or editor-in-chief of some major operation, some network or a

group.

Greg Gutfeld, please call John C.

DeVore.

I can't remember.

I'm not talking about a comedy show.

I'm talking about the editor of a Metro Daily.

I would do these stories.

Metro Daily?

What era are you?

There's no Metro Dailies anymore.

Yeah, there is the New York Times at Metro Daily, the New York Post at Metro Daily, San Francisco Examiners, or Chronicles at Metro Daily.

From the Los Angeles Times, I can go on.

All right.

Untold L.A.

Juvie.

California Attorney General Rob Bonta said Wednesday that he plans to ask a judge to let the state take control of LA County's juvenile halls.

He pointed to ongoing problems at the Los Padrinos facility in Downey, including youth fights and drug overdoses.

Bonta called the situation a system failure that put lives at risk.

He's asking the court to appoint a receiver to manage the troubled facilities after years of failed reforms and continued safety issues.

Bonta says the county has ignored court orders since 2021 and remains out of compliance with 75% of them.

This receiver would manage budgets, staffing, and daily operations at the Los Padrinos and Barry J.

Nidar facilities.

The facilities have faced repeated criticism, including criminal charges against officers for staging youth fights and a contractor caught smuggling Xanax.

In March, 30 probation officers were charged for allegedly staging so-called gladiator fights between youths while they watched.

However, the probation department's labor union blamed the LA County Board of Supervisors, saying the crisis stems from ignored warnings, hiring phrases, and outsourcing public safety.

Wow, working well there, that Juvie.

I thought this was

I'm listening to the story and the thing, well, they did this in that gladiator stage

fight club, basically.

Gladiator fights amongst the kids.

Okay, you kids on this side, we're going to want you to take on this.

Can you?

And they're watching and probably betting on the fights or the outcomes.

And they're probably getting turned on by it.

These crazy.

Keep us out of control.

Yeah.

And that's a story that should have national be all over the place.

But the Metro City Desk reporters, they're at the fights betting on it.

So then I got to do a story on that.

That's my untold story for today.

Okay.

Then I will just pop in here

with a little bit of climate change because due to climate change, we're all going to die.

First of all, it's that time of year again, everybody.

And I just want to give you a heads up as well.

The hottest part of the country today will actually be really across the corn belt.

This is where we grow the majority of our corn.

And the reason I bring this up is because it's that time of year again.

Corn sweats.

Yes, it really does.

It's just like our human bodies sweating and evaporating that

heat off of our bodies.

Well, corn actually absorbs and brings up moisture from the ground.

It takes the water through its stalk, starts to sweat, and then that evaporates and it actually increases the humidity levels in this area.

So John, very interesting that the corn belt will see the most oppressive heat today with triple index heat indices.

And did you know that corn, one acre of corn, can actually sweat 4,000 gallons of water into the atmosphere?

That's enough to fill your pool in less than a week.

So corn sweat.

Someone's getting cornhold today.

Sounds like a recipe for success to me.

Yeah, corn sweat is back.

We track that every year, a little bit of corn sweat.

And in the Netherlands, in The Hague, at the big International Criminal Court of Justice or whatever, a whole bunch of very solemn-looking old men and women walking in

like a star panel.

We have decided

that if you don't take climate change seriously, you are liable as a country, as leaders of a country.

We're going to lock you up.

Failure of a state to take

appropriate action to protect the climate system from GHG emissions may constitute an internationally wrongful act which is attributable to that state.

The court president added that such wrongful acts could include a state's production or consumption of fossil fuels, the granting of exploration permits or subsidies.

Such international wrongful acts, as the court opined, can inflict injury on other states in the form of dangerous climate events, making polluters financially liable.

Full reparation to injured states?

The opinion was requested by the island nation of Vanuatu, backed by a coalition of one hundred and thirty countries, after a concerted youth campaign.

Pacific islands are among those bearing the brunt of climate chaos caused by the semi-high emissions, historic and ongoing, of the United States, Europe and China, among others.

The opinion joins a growing mass of precedent, with domestic courts finding both the French and Dutch states' climate inaction unlawful in the past six years.

COP27 secured the creation of a global loss and damage fund to compensate developing countries

but pledges currently stand at $790 million

for a crisis whose impacts are estimated in the hundreds of billions.

They're going after money.

Oh, the little Caribbean islands.

Like, yeah, we can get some money.

We can get some money.

Yeah, they're losing tourists, I guess.

We can get some money.

And the Secretary General of of the United Nations, Antonio Guteras,

he made a very bold statement.

He told us that renewables are now cheaper and more efficient

than fossil fuels.

And all technology, all data centers should be using renewable energy.

Stop using fossil fuels.

Throughout history, energy has shaped the destiny of humankind.

From mastering fire to harnessing steam to splitting the atmosphere.

Now we are on the cusp of a new era.

Fossil fuels are running out of roads and the sun is rising on a clean energy age.

I call on every major tech firm to power all data centers with 100% renewables by 2030.

And along with other industry, they must use water sustainably in cooling systems.

The future is being built in the cloud.

It empowered by the sun, the wind, and the promise of a better world.

Okay,

dream on, buddy.

All data centers powered by solar panels.

Can you imagine?

Yeah.

Hello, ChatGPT.

Bruh.

Shut up right away.

And the final two clips I have for today's Deconstruction Bonanza are Miranda Devine, who has a podcast.

Yeah, it's called like post force one or something

she's from the New York Post and she had a great get she had Scott Besant

Scott Besant is one of those guys you have to edit a lot because he he he he

he's terrible he's terrible exactly but this is about the stablecoin

And for those of you who've been listening to No Agenda Show for the past year, you are well up to speed and you know exactly what's going on with the stablecoin.

And I want you to be able to speak intelligently about it so here is two minutes of the stablecoin so you can understand what's happening and be the envy of the office because crypto that i mean that seems to be a threat to the dollar doesn't it i think it's the opposite oh really i think stable coins could reinforce dollar supremacy because with stable coins stable coins could end up being one of the largest buyers of U.S.

treasuries or T-bills.

So all of a sudden, if you are using a stable coin in Nigeria that's backed by the U.S.

dollar, you don't actually have to have dollars.

It's on your phone.

You can transact.

So, I think there's a very good chance that crypto is actually

one of the things that locks in dollar supremacy.

And is that why it was crucial that Donald Trump get involved in crypto rather than trying to constrain it like Joe Biden was?

Well,

I think constrain is too mild a word.

I think make it extinct.

So

this administration's commitment to digital assets,

it's innovation, because there's so many other things that happen around digital assets.

And also,

it's one of those things that it's one of the most important phenomenas that's happening in the world.

And the U.S.

just ignored it.

So that's your stable coin that will keep the U.S.

dollar dominance running for another, I don't know, four or five years.

I'm not sure.

No, more than that.

But let me ask you a question

based on what he said.

Now, a stable coin represents a stored value dollar someplace, usually in the form of a treasury.

Yeah, pretty much all of that.

So there's a dollar.

We'll call it dollar X.

Yes.

And there's a stable coin that represents that dollar.

Yes.

So that's one-to-one.

That stable coin and that dollar are interlinked.

Yes.

What's that got to do with crypto?

Nothing.

Why did he say crypto?

He said crypto.

Because it's a bait and switch and a scam.

And President Trump lied.

Lied

to the Bitcoin community.

Oh, I'm going to create a Bitcoin treasury.

Oh, Bitcoin.

It's all going to be Bitcoin.

But remember, when I played those clips from him at the Bitcoin conference, he said unstablecoin.

And that was this always the gambit.

And get everyone on board.

And now with this next bill, which should be voted on this coming week or next week, it's going to literally allow any, as we call it, shit coin in the universe to be created.

All kinds of nonsense, which we put under the banner of tokenization.

And what we are doing, the very good bill that may get voted on in the Senate.

It's a very fine bill.

It's a very good, very fine bill.

Very fine bill.

Very fine bill.

And what we are doing, the very good bill that may get voted on the Senate next week, week after,

that will give us, will bring crypto and digital assets and make the U.S.

the leader.

So just as we're the leader in AI, just as we are the leader in biomedicine, we will become the leader in this.

All things I hate, biomedicine, crypto, and AI.

This is, you know, what he left out?

Quantum.

On the technology side, and here, led by Treasury, led by some great leadership in the Senate.

And this is bipartisan.

There may be 16 Democrats who are going to vote with Republicans on this on this bill, which so it tells you how the inclination toward crypto was there.

It was just

the White House, the previous administration, wanted to kill it.

So once we get this bill passed, the U.S., we can put our best standards and practices out to the world.

It won't be something that happens in a Caribbean island.

It won't be something that is used for nefarious purposes or primarily used for nefarious purposes

in the Middle East.

This is all so disappointing.

Liars, liars.

President Trump lied.

It's lies.

I cannot support him anymore for anything.

Lies, I tell you.

You should have voted for Kamala.

Who says I voted for Trump?

You know, I always vote for the rent too high guy who didn't show up.

Well, he's dead, I think, isn't he?

No, I don't think he's dead.

I thought he died.

We are unaffiliated.

But I thought it was great.

The president's like, oh, it's going to be Bitcoin, Bitcoin.

He wasn't saying.

The more you talk about this, the more I keep thinking, I've said it before, you haven't really disagreed with me, that this is a bypass.

This is a cheap way to get around Swift.

It's correct.

I told you that on the last show.

I told you that's what this is.

I think I told you and you told me back.

Oh, okay.

You're the stablecoin genius.

No, I'm not a stablecoin, but I just see everything as a scam to get Russia back into the scheme of things because they can use stable coins.

They can't use Swift.

And it's cutting out the Europeans, getting rid of these.

Get the Europeans.

That's a big part of it.

Get them out of the picture.

They're annoying.

Luckily, there is one senator in the United States Congress who has proposed the bill just for you.

John C.

Dvorak, your man, the hoodie of the hour.

Virginia Senator John Fetterman wants to make it illegal for businesses to refuse cash as payment.

He introduced the Payment Choice Act last week.

That legislation requires businesses to accept cash or provide a device that converts cash to a prepaid card without fees.

The bill would also allow businesses to refuse payments made with $50 bills or larger.

The city of Philadelphia banned cashless businesses back in 2019.

The decision was designed to protect people who do not have bank accounts or credit cards.

Yep.

Or who keep their phone in a drawer.

Or whatever.

And there's a lot of people that like cash.

Yes.

And Berkeley has a law against this, too, because the argument they use, of course, is the pitiful, well, it's the poor homeless.

They haven't got a card.

What are they supposed to do when they want to buy something?

They get some money.

They're out begging for money.

They're getting cash.

They don't have a little

card reader on them at the corner.

Oh, first of all, all homeless people today have a phone, and all they need is a QR code on their cup.

You can donate some.

Secura.

Yeah, well, you know, maybe you should go do some homeless outreach and get them to

get modern.

Modernized.

Give them some stablecoin.

Ha, we're doomed.

I'm going to show my support by donating to no agenda.

Imagine all the people who could do that.

Oh, yeah, that'd be fab.

Yeah,

on your agenda.

In the morning.

Yes, cash, the new Feder coin.

All right,

we have some good end of show mixes coming up that I'm excited about.

And we have some meetups to discuss.

We have a couple of nights.

And, of course, John's tip of the day after we get through thanking our donors.

The rest of our list for today, $50 and above.

Yeah, we don't have too many.

Oh, really?

Things have been grim.

Dreary.

But we did get the $3,000 guy who saved the show.

He did save the show for sure.

Now we have a random donation from Stripe for $148.03.

Dame Rita.

There she is.

Always at the top of the list.

107.30, 107.24.

She is in Sparks, Nevada.

And she said, great end of show mix on episode that is the one that Nico did.

Yes, Nico Syme, indeed.

It was a very good one.

Which was a toe-tapper.

A super toe-tapper.

Zach and Blair, uh, Zach and Blair, uh, in Lino, Lino, or Lino, Lino, I'm not sure, Massachusetts, 105.35.

Um,

please break for Night Sir Mark of Gurkha Land.

We'd like an F Cancer Karma for his recent diagnosis and prayers for his healthy and speedy recovery.

We can do that right now.

Could you like to do that?

Happy to do that.

You've got karma.

Ian, Ian, Ian Field, $100.

Another strike donation,

$98.94.

Kevin McLaughlin, $8008.

He's the Archduke Aluna lover of America and a lover of melons.

He sure is.

Nicholas Leary in Columbus, Ohio, 72.72.

Matthew Elwart in Weatherford, Texas, 6006.

Small boobs.

Les Tarkowski in Kingman, Arizona, 6006.

And then we have a couple, but here we go.

More strikes.

I hope this stuff starts showing up.

Good luck.

5903 and 58.54.

Thank you both, whoever you were.

You're anonymous.

Which is how it works.

Bente Halta Edlich.

Bente Belt Edlich.

In Binnington, Switzerland.

Ah, we love the Swiss.

We do.

$58.

And he's got a happy birthday call to Dame Dane.

The Dame Dane, who turns 58.

Yes.

Yeah, good man.

A very good man.

Robert Wicker in Jacksonville, Florida, 55.10.

Scott Forrest Brinkley in North Canton, Ohio, 52.72.

Henry Barron of Outpost West.

in Rancho Palace Verdes, California, 52.42.

Forrest Martin, 5005.

Andrew Benz in Imperial, Missouri, 5005.

And now we get to a few $50 donors, four of them, to be exact.

Alex Alexa Delgado in Aptos.

Brett Denton in Boise.

Melissa Alvarez in Pantavedra Beach, Florida.

And last on the short, short, short, short list.

How short is it?

Short.

Sir Gregg in Newport, North Carolina.

We want to thank these people for helping us on show 1784.

And again, thanks to our executive and associate executive producers for this episode.

And as always, you can support us by going to noagendadonations.com.

We will not mention you under $50 for reasons of anonymity.

Or you could just send us a whole bunch of Bitcoin.

I won't mention you either.

We'll just thank Strike for it.

And of course, you can set up a recurring donation, which is the OG way to go with value for value, any amount, any frequency.

And of course, numerology counts.

We love the special numbers that you put together for us.

Noagenda donations.com.

And we just heard from Benta Helt Edlich who wishes Dame Dane a very happy one.

She turned 58 on the 21st of July.

Kara Reed, her smoking hot husband Jonathan, who now becomes a knight,

he celebrates today.

Happy birthday to him.

And Angelina from Amsterdam sent a special note for me to wish Sebastian a very happy birthday.

He celebrates on the 30th of July, and they're having a No Agenda meetup in Japan.

He's on his way, so we'll probably be hearing this on the airplane.

He says, send love from me, Charlotte and Myrta.

His sisters love the show, Klutches and Jelina.

And that's it.

Happy birthday for everybody here at the best podcast in the universe.

We congratulate our two PhDs for today as the promotion winds down.

No crying after the end of July.

Kevin and Tainen

Rebich, you can go to noagendarings.com.

We have a special PhD tab for you there.

Take a look at that beautiful, very, very handsome PhD immediate deconstruction certificate.

All you have to do is tell us exactly what name you want on it and where to send it, and we'll send it off to you post-haste.

And we do have three knights to bring up on the round table, the No Agenda Knights and Dames.

So here's a blade for me.

If I can have your blade, please.

Here you go.

Here's the big boy.

Beautiful.

The big boy is out.

Kevin, Tinen Rebich, Tynan Ribich, and Jonathan Reed.

All three of you today become knights of the No Agenda Roundtable.

I'm very proud to pronounce K the as Sir Kevin, Keeper of the Spee, his beautiful black lab.

Sir Sigma, and Sir We, the People's Beefcake, as a temporary name.

For you, gentlemen, we have Hookers and Blow, Ren Boys and Chardonnay, Korean fried chicken, and Corona with lime, a can of cold Pepsi with Swift's rolls, not to be outdone by the Rubiness movement in Rose, the geisha, the sake.

The buck of vanilla, the bong, hits, and bourbon, the sparkling ice, cider at escorts, the ginger ale and gerbils, the breast milk, and pavlum.

And as always, at every single roundtable celebration, the mutton and the mead.

You can join our PhDs over at noagendarings.com.

That's where you will find your beautiful night rings on display.

They are signet rings, so each night ring comes with a couple of sticks of wax.

You can seal your important correspondence with that, also a certificate of authenticity.

And thank you for joining this roundtable with our No Agenda Knights and our No Agenda Dames.

No Agenda meetups.

Yeah, the No Agenda meetups.

They are still on deck, still happening.

People love going to them, but no agenda meetups.

Excuse me.

Hey.

COVID.

Noagendametups.com.

Don't be looking for that national meetup.

This is a decentralized, distributed thing we've got going on.

It's like the TEDx.

You go to, you create a meetup wherever you want for whatever reasons you want, whatever time of the day, call it whatever you want, and just have people come out who listen to the show.

It's always fun.

Noagendameetups.com.

Here's a meetup promo we got.

This Saturday.

Sorry, this is not a promo.

Is this a promo?

Yeah, it is a promo.

Saturday at 1 p.m., the Baron of Massapon Excenda had six bears and a goat in Stafford, Virginia.

Address says Fredericksburg.

Yes, Adam, that happens here too.

Let's honor this OT Virginia meetup host at an incredible brewery.

See you Saturday.

All right.

Oh, look at that.

I love that.

I don't, do we have

no meetup reports, only the promo?

Well, that's perfect because I can promo what's coming up on Friday, tomorrow, beer in the sun, 5:30 at the Lighthouse Brewery in Victoria, British Columbia.

Please send us meetup reports and include your server.

On Saturday, Baron Harry Pilgrim, there it is.

It's his send-off.

Of course, I met

Baron Harry Pilgrim on, gosh, one of the first No Agenda meetups.

I think it was the OG

Hot Pockets Tour.

And that will be at Six Bears and a Goat in Fredericksburg, Virginia.

You heard Sir Tom Starkweather there.

He was organizing it.

Everyone, come on out and give Sir Baron Harry Pilgrim a great send-off.

Also on Saturday in Anaheim, California, Leo Bravo does it for the 65th time, long-time No X flight of the No Agenda.

That'll be at 3:33 at Brewery X in Anaheim.

And on July 26, that is also Saturday at Dempsey's No Agenda Columbus meetup at 5.30 Columbus, Ohio.

Go hang out with Sir Leary and all the cool kids at the No Agenda Columbus meetup.

No Agenda Meetups, you can find them all at noagendameetups.com.

If you can't find one near you, don't worry.

You can start one yourself.

It's free.

It's easy and always guaranteed a party.

Sometimes you wanna go hang out with all the nights and days.

You wanna be where you won't be, triggered all hell.

You wanna be where everybody feels the same.

It's like a party.

But before we get to anything, as always, we try to

delight the crowd with some inside how the sausage is made.

This is how a production meeting would go in the real world.

Of course, we'd have Dana Bernetti calling a meeting and making it all complicated.

Like,

I'm the producer.

I got to tell you what to do.

I'm just trying to to get his attention.

We selected VOL.

I told you he stopped listening to the show.

He did.

He doesn't care.

He hates the show.

No, he likes the show, but he just is bored.

Well, what is he doing then?

Driving his fire truck?

Tractor.

Right now, as we speak, I guarantee he's on a tractor.

Get off that tractor.

All right, I have four end-of-show ISOs, and you have one, so I guess I'll go first.

This is bigger.

This is way bigger than I could ever imagine.

It's a little too long.

We have Robo John.

Yeah.

No?

Okay.

We have...

Just donate.

Donate.

Donate.

Huh?

Liking that one.

And the final one.

Does not compute.

Pew, pew.

That's no good.

Okay.

Just donate.

Donate.

Donate.

All right.

Now we'll get yours, which is.

Mine's curiously similar.

Together, we can make a difference.

Donate now.

No, mine's better.

It's real.

Donate.

Donate.

It's John.

What do you think that other one is?

Fake?

No, it's not.

Together, we can make a difference.

Donate now.

Well, wherever you got it from, they fakes it.

No, it's a guy with a big deep voice.

It's a real guy.

Well, which one do you like better?

I like, I will take yours because you're trying to demean my stuff, and I might as well go along with it.

So you have some schema afoot, so I'll play along.

That's right, I have a schema for it.

My scheme is to confuse you, get you to repeat John's tip of the day.

Okay, this time's software.

We're on the rotation,

software, so we're on software.

This is software day,

and I'm going to recommend a product that I've been using for decades.

Whoa, not decade, no, I'm sorry, decade, a decade, boomer, Boomer product.

Boomer product.

At least a decade.

This is a handy-dandy product.

It's free.

It is called handbrake.

You can look it up.

You can Google it and see if it's a fancy.

We've definitely done handbrake before.

No, we've never done handbrake.

Yes, we have.

I've talked about it before, but I've never, I'm sure it's not tip of the day.

Okay.

All right.

But people.

Okay, what does it do?

It's

to rip,

to steal content.

No.

Yes, that's what hambrakes is.

It's to convert product.

It's

convert one thing.

Okay.

I'm sorry.

It's not to steal content.

It's to convert product from one format that is possible to another.

Yes.

For example,

here's a good use for it.

You own, you own.

I don't know a lot of people don't like this idea, but I've always been a fan of it.

I own,

I own, I bought, paid for a

DVD.

Oh, my.

And you want to send it to all your friends?

No.

I want to put it on my phone.

You do not want to put it on your phone.

What?

So it can play in the desk drawer?

So I can play it on the airplane because I'll bring a phone on the plane.

When have you been on a plane recently?

I haven't been recently, but if I'm going to go on a plane, I'm going to do this.

I'm going to take the DVD.

I'm going to run it through handbrake.

It'll bust it up into pieces.

And

it'll say to me, What do you want to do with this?

You want to make it small?

You want to make it big?

You want to make it a small file, a big file.

You want to change it from MP4 to MKV.

What do you want to do?

Do you want to change the bit rate?

Do you want to do what?

And you tell it, and it makes the conversion.

It doesn't take that long.

Actually, it's pretty fast.

And next thing you know, I've got the movie playing on my phone.

So, if anyone out there receives a file from John that has Academy

watermarked, then you know how he did it.

Handbrake is an outstanding product.

I used to use it on the Mac

because I think it's cross-platform.

No?

I don't know.

I don't have a Mac.

And for all of us Unix guys, we just use FFmpeg.

We're real men.

We don't mess around with Handbrake.

There it is.

Ladies and gentlemen, John C.

Dvorak, chip of the day, chipoftheday.net.

And as always, you can get the collection at noagendafund.com.

Great advice for you and me, just the chip with JCD.

And sometimes Adam.

Created by Dana Bernetti.

Yes, thank you, Dana Bernetti.

Created by Dana Bernetti.

Well, he created it, but he's not producing it.

No difference.

Created by is different than produced by.

Yeah, that's true.

So he's not responsible for the leather honey fiasco.

But you're supposed to blame the creature.

What are you doing?

What are you doing?

It must be the wine.

All right, everybody, we do have end of show mixes coming up from Mellow D.

We've got John Valentine

and

we got Jeff and who was it?

Jeff and

Jeff and Andy.

Jeff and Andy.

One of the funniest clips you'll ever hear.

Yeah, Jeff and Andy is good.

Very good.

Also, if you stay tuned to Noagendastream.com or on that Modern Podcast app, app, we have random thoughts coming up next,

which I think has Gene on it.

It always seems to be with Sir Gene.

Coming to you from the heart of the Texas Hill Country right here in Fredericksburg, where we're just as expensive as New York.

In the morning, everybody, I'm Adam Curry.

And from Northern Silicon Valley, where I remain, I'm John C.

DeVore.

We'll be back on Sunday.

Until then, adios, mofos, a hooey-hooey, and such.

What are you hiding?

You're not hiding anything.

Prove that to the American people.

Yes.

And if you are trying to hide something, as many of Donald Trump's MAGA supporters apparently believe, then Congress should actually work hard to try to uncover the truth for the American people.

He's dead, he's gone.

Epstein died of suicide.

Epstein died and suicide.

Epstein will kill himself.

Epstein darkened suicide.

Jeffrey Epstein conducted a conference called Confronting Gravity.

I don't know who Jeffrey Epstein was, but I'll certainly bet money that he was the product of at least one

or more elements of the intelligence community.

The CIA, the XPIA.

Those are ours.

And it was Gates was there, all these guys, and I guess Epstein was there.

So I could have had the opportunity to be Epstein to say, well, it would have creep or whatever I would have said.

I don't know.

I probably would have said anything.

Epstein darkened suicide.

Epson Dark of Suicide.

You could use headphones, but that would be ridiculous.

No, I'm not gonna use headphones.

I have sweaty ears.

I'll get mold in my ears.

Well, I'm sitting in my chair.

Hot gas blaring in the air.

Got them cans on tight.

But something ain't right.

My ears are getting wet.

It's a sweaty kind of bed.

John C's got fear.

I don't want no mold in here.

Sweaty is

oh no, don't want no mold in.

Never heard about the mold in your ears.

Fungus creeping near,

man.

That's my biggest fear.

You were almost deaf for a while because what?

Adam's got that moldy glow, but I ain't gonna go.

Keep them earbuds more.

I'm a headphone freestyle.

Sweaty is.

Oh no, don't want no more ears.

Say what?

That's good.

Say what?

Dry and clean.

That's me, living more freely.

Once I have sweaty ears, I'll get mold in my ears.

Sweaty ears.

Oh, my, I'm keeping these boats dry.

No, I'm not gonna use headphones.

No cares for me.

I'm setting my ears free.
