No Agenda Show - 1855 - "Gooder"

And from the Northern San Francisco Bay, Refinery Road, where we had no kink stay, I'm

John C. Devorak. You guys always have kinks day in San Francisco. No kinks. No kinks. No kinks.

This was, this was so interesting. I was just trying to read through like people who

were writing about it. Of course, we have clips. But the big thing that the M5M was

trying to emphasize was this line. These events supported by 500 groups with combined revenues

of $3 billion. This is, you know, what is the, what is the point of that? They're trying

to message something like this is this is scary, the powerful, you know, the two billion

go to Bruce Springsteen. I don't have no clue. It's good to have you here, John. Well, thank

you. How are you feeling? Terrible. I feel terrible. Yeah. It's a miracle I could do this

show. Well, I'm, I'm actually quite surprised. Are you sleeping at all or is that not? Well,

this sleeping is a problem because you kind of just doze off when you feel like it. But

I will say this during the donation segment. Yeah, that could have happened. Yeah, you

will say I will say this David Letterman had a quintuple. Yes. And he was on the stage

five weeks later. Yeah. Well, he is then happening here. He's a super some past five weeks

already. No, no, he, there was five weeks after the operation. You've only had the operation

almost 10 days ago. No, it was on the sixth. Oh, wow. Well, hurry up, will you get your

spark, man. His little overview of this is from your own news. Here's how the Europeans

viewed our no Kings day. Millions of people took to the streets across the United States

to participate in the more than 3,100 protest taking place against US President Donald Trump.

The rallies denounced what they described as an authoritarian style of governance by

the incumbent administration. Their immigration stands climate change denial, isolationist

foreign policy. And now the war in Iran in New York thousands gathered to protest against

sweeping immigration rates carried out by ice and called for their abolition. The rallies

even featured a surprise cameo from New York native and Hollywood giant Robert Nero.

The Nero place in the capital Washington DC were hundreds gathered near the White House

demanding Trump's ouster. It's the third time in less than a year these protests, part

of a US grassroots movement called no Kings take place. The demonstrations spread across

the pond where thousands of Americans abroad and locals took part in rallies across Europe.

They were protesting in London, no Kings, oops. In Paris, protesters called for an enter

Trump's quote reckless irresponsible and endless wars. And in the Italian capital, thousands

march calling for respect of international law and demanding a world free from wars.

Yeah, I think the branding is off. No Kings. Just hate Trump. That's all that it is.

Hate Trump. Did you see that the the segment of the New York protest that was literally

communists with the red flag in this? No. Yeah, because you must have been a couple thousand

people. They had the flags. They had the, you know, and they had a bunch of jingles that they

would say about communism taking over. And you know, all kind of a mixed bag of zeds and maybe

some some millennials. Well, I think the zeds that are in New York and I have one.

You know, they all were promised a bunch of stuff and they probably aren't paying attention

that it's kind of not happening. He's like, well, we got to raise your taxes, you know,

raise taxes on property. So you're probably, you know, probably not going to freeze the rents.

So they haven't, they just haven't felt the pain yet. But, you know, the kids are happy. They

like their red flags. Let them wave them for a little bit. I'm not so bothered by it. New York

has always been New York. They'll figure it out. Were you shocked? No, not at all. I'm just

surprised they came out so so blatantly. Oh, no, no, this is the, but this has always been the case.

We used to arrest people over at Hollywood and then we gave up that gambit. Like, uh,

that wasn't so cool to be calling people communists and arresting them. And so now they're rampant.

You know, it doesn't, it doesn't work. I did, I watched a fair bit of it. The Minneapolis stuff

which was, oh, man, they had one crappy band after another. It's like, everybody who has a guitar

and has written a song was allowed to go up on stage. Like, oh, it was insufferable. And then,

of course, the great New Jersey icon Bruce Springsteen takes the stage to confirm all the lies.

To the streets of Minneapolis. I just, this past winter, federal troops brought death to the streets

of Minnesota. Well, they picked a wrong city. Yeah. Should have gone to Tom's river.

The power and the solidarity of the people of Minneapolis and Minnesota was an inspiration to

the entire country. Your strengths and your commitment told us that this is still America.

Just not, just not this little piece here, Bruce. And this reactionary nightmare and these

invasions of American cities, invasions of America, Bruce Springsteen, who it has several hundred

million dollars. What happened to the guy? I'd like to know myself.

Do you think it's a toxoplasmosis? They very well could be. Something is going on here.

We're not staying. You gave us hope. You gave us courage. And for those who gave their lives,

we're in a good mother of three daily murdered, Alex Freddie, VA nurse, executed by ice, executed,

shot in the back and left a die in the street without even the decency of our lawless government

investigating their deaths. What? They're gravy, they're sacrifice, and their names

will not be forgotten. It just can't, it's, it's like the Howard Stern sickness. Yeah. And it's,

it's bizarre. It could be cats. It's, it's got to be cats. I mean, it's just, it makes no sense.

He, he, he's off the rails. Well, he's, he's not even on rails. It's just like, Bruce, come on,

man. It's not going to, I think he's done. Well, he's been, he's been done for a while. It's

just so disappointing. I mean, I'm from Jersey. This is not the guy we used to know.

On New Jersey's turned blue, so that kind of kind of makes sense. But the craziest was Jane

Fonda. And she's, I mean, what is no Kings supposed to be about? I mean, was it, was it even about ice

initially? I can't remember. But the first no Kings was about nothing except Trump. Right,

Trump. And then it became, this was kind of the Minneapolis. So it's about federal troops

invading our cities, invading, invading our cities. And then Jane Fonda, well, I'd really,

I'd really like to just like her because, you know, she, here's an, an elderly woman. She's 87,

88. You know, she, all the work that she's done on herself is, it looks just mind bogglingly good.

But if she makes it so hard for me to like her. And now she's waffling over this.

I want to say that the First Amendment suffers greatly in times of war as the government works

to crush internal dissent. What? Our parents, our forefathers fought and died for these rights,

for these freedoms. We must not sit by quietly and watch them take it away. If we wait to act,

if we hesitate out of fear or the feeling that it, it doesn't affect us, it may be too late.

So this is America. This she talking about. Exactly. This is the land of the podcast where

everybody can say whatever they want about anything or nothing. And so I had to figure out what

is she talking about? It made no sense. So I find luckily, although it was kind of hard to watch,

she goes on. Mrs. Now with Jen Psocki and Jen Psocki is faunting over her. And she explains

because she, she has a group. She has a First Amendment group because for your First Amendment rights

are under attack and being removed here in America. And I should know for the audience,

you were in Washington DC today speaking outside the Kennedy Center for an event that's

what I'm referring to in defense of free expression. So tell us about the event and the message

you were really trying to get across to people watching. Yeah, because we don't understand.

Well, the attacks on the arts, literature, on film, on museums, the national endowment of the

home. What attack on museums? What attack on films? This is this can only be tell that the Netflix.

Exactly. This can only be that Trump put his name on the Kennedy Center. I can't imagine

it's about anything else, but she does slip into that. I'm sure that's what it is. She said

gold. Everybody so much. She slips in the national endowment for the arts. Okay. All of these are

under attack right now. They're being defunded. They're being censored. They're being censored.

Nobody censoring anything. Well, she kind of twists herself in a knot in this short appearance.

Removed. Removed. A special, especially racial history, the history of slavery is all being

erased. What? It's being erased. Have I missed something?

Yeah. Okay. And we wanted it. We've been deluged with the history of race. Deluged. I think we

got it. It's all being erased. And we wanted it because it's kind of like here and there,

here and there. We worried that people and the press don't see clearly enough the breadth and

depth of these attacks. And we have to understand what's happening. This is not normal. This does not

happen in a democracy. And we have to call it what it is. And we have to end it. We're the

committee for the First Amendment. It's the First Amendment for us. She's the committee for the

First Amendment. No, we'll hold on. Jen Socky. I didn't see this. But Jen Socky, I mean,

guessing, goes right to the Jaguar and Asker's for specifics. Yeah, no, yeah, no. We may know.

No, no, it's just, listen, she's on the committee for the First Amendment.

And we have to end it. We're the committee for the First Amendment. It's the First Amendment for

a reason. It's the most important. It's the cornerstone of all democracies. It's freedom of

speech. It's the First Amendment. It's the cornerstone of all democracy. First amendment for a reason.

It's the most important. It's the cornerstone of all democracies. It's freedom of speech, freedom of

press, freedom of religion, freedom of assembly, and freedom to protest, including the right.

in there. Let me go take a look and see if it says freedom to protest. I'm not sure it's actually

in there that way. Freedom of assembly and freedom to protest. For someone who's on the committee,

she couldn't at least just cite it verbatim. Including the right to criticize our president

if we choose. That's undecided. This is under attack. Yes, that's under attack.

So, yeah, and she nobody's ever criticized Trump. It's the oddest thing. I don't, maybe I'm wrong

about her, but I never thought that she felt the need to be relevant. A lot of Hollywood people do

that. I never really pegged her that way. But I guess I can't come up with any other reason for her

to be like this. You know, once you invest some money and make some independent films and

do some theater productions, I don't think anyone's going to stop here. But it's somehow it's

maybe there's a deep funding of certain things. Maybe that's what she's upset about.

But that's not the first amendment. First amendment doesn't say, oh, you shall get free money for

your theater productions. So I was a little confused. What do you have on No Kings? Do you have

anything? Nothing. I got no clips. I wasn't going to really talk about it. Well, what's this No Kings

rap NPR then? Well, this is the NPR rap of No Kings. See, you're being censored. Your clips are

being obfuscated. No Kings protests against President Trump and his policies, including the war in

Iran, immigration, voting rights and the rising cost of living are taking place around the country

today. Organizers say more than 3,000 rallies are being held and millions of people are expected

to attend. Sarah Ferguson from Minnesota Public Radio has more from a massive rally in St. Paul.

There's been a lot of cheering as people, especially non-Minnesotans have lifted up. The people of

Minnesota for the way that they reacted to Operation Metro surge and really encourage others around

the country who are watching to take steps to follow up on the things that Minnesota has done,

respecting one another, trying to support their neighbors and just a lot of cheers here as some

of the speakers say that the country does not want to king and they want to make sure that the

people are empowered. Is this all about the ID, the about the Save Act? Do you think that's part of

it? I didn't see much talk about it, but I mean, it just, it makes no sense. It seems like

protests. No, it's just people with nothing better to do. I have no idea. It's silly.

I'm going to say it. It's silly. Yes. Well, then you pointed it out right at the beginning,

which is the silliest part, you know, all these international versions of this, including one in

England. No kings. Were they have a king? They have a king. Yeah, I've been trying to figure out

the backlash against the Caesar Chavez. I think you were back on that. Yeah, well, it's related,

I think. I think it's related. Yeah, I think it is. In February, RFK Junior was on Rogan.

And he explained what happened. You know, we've throughout, throughout American history,

or there's always talking, well, the Republican Party and the Democrat Party, they flipped,

they flipped over. They flipped. Well, but this is, this is a kind of a flip that makes that

sounds correct. Why don't you ask me about immigration, because I know that that's something that's

to serve you. Well, what are your thoughts on immigration? On what's going on?

Well, you know, here's the fact that I'm kind of assumptions. During the last 10 years of his

life, I work very closely with the Caesar Chavez. And I worked with, he had two issues. He had

the pesticides, which were a huge issue with him. And that's what I worked with him on, on the

dangers that, you know, his workers were experiencing from, from pesticides. And the other issue,

he was immigration. He wanted to shut down the border, because he saw the way that

it was impairing this huge influx of illegal immigration across the border was impairing

his ability to get to bargain to leverage good wages and conditions for his workers.

And when I grew up, the Democratic Party was against immigration. And it was the Republican

Party who wanted it, because the big corporations wanted cheap labor. The Chamber of Commerce

was firmly embedded in the Republican Party, and they were all about open borders.

And hey, the Chamber of Commerce is with the Democratic Party. And so it's one of these switches

that is kind of an inexplicable room to me, but I think again it'd be, it happened because

President Trump said, I'm going to fix it with a wall, and that became, you know,

in that suddenly became open borders suddenly became a calling card for the Democratic Party.

So there was this flip, which really only has to do with big parties. Yeah, the two sides.

And this is recent, this one, because you can get clips from Schumer. I have, I don't have any

today's show, but you know, talking and moaning and groaning about immigration, and you can get

clips from Hillary, moaning and groaning about immigration. You can get all these clips, but even

up to Obama. And now they say just the opposite. Yeah, but you can call it a flip. But what specifically

do you think is the reason for this? It's the reason three documentaries, American

Pachuko, the legend of Luis Valdez, American agitators, which I think may be out already,

and a song for Caesar. American Pachuko? Yeah. I know, no idea what that means. I do. What does it mean?

Well, it's kind of like a pong, a bad guy. You'd call it in the, in the, when I was a kid,

those raised in largely Hispanic areas. And, uh, and these guys would call it,

hey, but you go, hey, but you go, and Vato, Vato is the other one. They call you, but you go.

No, I was a white guy. I didn't know he even talked to me much. You were just, you were just

hanging around, me and Julio down by the school yard. Now I had a lot of friends that, you know,

when I was a nice school, before they, before they, before they opened up our,

our white, you know, high school, I went to a whole mix pretty much of, uh, Latino,

high school. Wait, you know, and it was, you were a minority, you were a minority,

you could beat up that they'd take your lunch. Now at all, it felt just the opposite. Oh,

you were gringo. Would they call you, hey, gringo? No, no, they just said, hey, man, that guy's really

white. That's what they'd say. You know, everybody out with their own little proud. But my,

just as an aside, to this day, and I've talked about this with everybody I know, I've still impressed

with the natural marketing, marketing capabilities of some of these, uh, these, these kids,

these, which we at the time, we call them chicanos. Yeah. And these kids that were, because when we

were running for, I think it was sophomore class president, uh, you know, we already knew who's

going to win it. What might not win, but this one kid came up with this, it was giant posters.

He'd make these long banners. And he won with, with the phrase, Hernández is gooder.

And it was so catchy. He looked at him go, Hernández is gooder. And you said, wow, that's,

I don't know what kind of genius that came up with that one. But it was a gem. And he just

kicked ass in the voting. So I'm looking at this, this is from Hawaii public radio. They have a

report here. This America, Pachuco premiered at Sundance in January is slated for release,

oh, PBS release in fall, interesting. And here's the line, recent screenings have become

safe spaces for audiences to process the new allegations as the film contains significant

footage of Chavez. Oh, that's funny. So there's an oops. Maybe it was the whole idea was

that ruined that film could be. But that RFK juniors talking about on Rogan in February,

the timing is, you know, the timing is interesting. And maybe there's something afoot and they're

like, oh, crap, they're going to use Hugo Chavez. They're going to use him. We got to do something

quick. We got to, we got to cancel this guy. Maybe it's the, exactly what you talk. Maybe it's

the good or guys. Maybe they're going after the Chicanos. Like we can't have the Chicanos voting

for Trump. Oh, there's got to be some angle there. Yeah. I'm thinking it has something to do with it.

Yeah. Could be. Well, we keep looking, we keep looking. All right. What do you want to go? What

you got? Well, I got a couple of interesting little aside. If you want to hear something off the wall,

you haven't even touched upon. Okay. We have, I didn't hear about it. I have to say,

Canada's got, you know, BC's going broke. How are they now? Well, BC's credit rating has been

downgraded again. The official opposition says it signals to investors that the province is going broke.

Huh. Yeah. BC's going broken. And in fact, the whole country might be going broke. Listen,

play this clip. Canada bank fees. New survey now, CTV puts out new survey, nearly half

Canadians living paycheck to paycheck. You know, you're another slow clap for all these policies

here, half a Canadians in rich, rich nation. And then you, you're going to have France,

up, Philip Champagne is bragging that they're cutting the Dennis F fees from 50 bucks to 10 bucks,

because one in three Canadians now writing bad checks without realizing what he's saying. He thinks

you're that stupid. One in three Canadians writing bad checks, half a Canadians living paycheck to

paycheck. Internation is rich as this. You squandered riches. You've impoverished a nation and you're

bragging on there like they must have done that took them all day too, because we saw the hard

cuts in there too. They couldn't even stitch together like a moment. It was just full of like hard

cuts as Francois Philip Champagne was telling you that you're going to get a grocery credit and

you're going to get the $540 off finance F fees in a nation where the Canadian banking oligopoly

books record profits year after year and they won't like competition. And they should try

in no Kings Day. They get problems up to that we're not we're not carefully looking at.

Well, our producers and we have a lot of them in Canada, all of pretty much all of them want to

come live here. I remember during COVID like, hey, man, can I stand here in your attic?

Got any space. And then also, which I think is coming to a boil up in Canada, but not so much

here. I want to play these clips. This is Land Act 1. China deals you in. A new measure was

announced this week to try and help stimulate the housing market. And it marks the third one

that came out just this month. We ultimately may hear of even more of these to come as the

pre-sale market continues to struggle immensely. Plus, we saw another major project go insolvent.

I also have updates on where markets are pricing in potential bank of Canada rate hikes. Plus,

there is an incredible theory that has emerged this week as to why the government is making

these land agreements with indigenous groups. Okay. All right. Something's going on.

Yeah, there's a bunch of weird stuff going on with these indigenous groups. I like the way

they call them the Indians. Yeah. Play Land Act China deals. Oh, that's the one. Wait, wait, wait.

That's why I just played. No, you play. Oh, no, I see. I got I see it. Yeah, the UN.

Let me see. Correct. Look the same. The one that looks the same, it doesn't have one. Yeah.

Land. Okay. Here we go. The strategy focuses on joint ventures and equity positions.

In these models, the First Nations retain its right First Nations. That's what they are First Nations.

You got it First Nations. In these models, the First Nations retain its rights and title while the

Chinese partner provides the capital and expertise to develop the resource under a profit sharing

or lease agreement. So while China already remains a bit of a dominant force within the global

mineral supply chain, recent and somewhat new Canadian federal policies on March 26.

A report came out that kind of supports this theory of the Bureau, the provincial government's

implementation of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples Act or

combined with a series of landmark court decisions confirming Aboriginal title over specific

territories has rapidly altered the legal landscape governing resource extraction in Western Canada.

More land is now subject to indigenous control. More projects require indigenous consent.

These are, in principle, corrections to historical wrongs, but also mean that the pathways

to Canada's most strategically valuable resources, Lithium, Cobalt, Rare Earth Elements, Timber and

LNG now runs in many cases directly through First Nations governments. Okay. So they are

selling with Chinese financing. Well, yeah. What the yellow man wants, what the white man wants

took now they're giving to the yellow man and it's the minerals and it's the oh man.

So are they are they licking them up first before they put these deals going on in Washington state also.

They're giving property back to the local Indian tribes who already sold the land

to the state or the local governments and then they're pulling the plug on taxes, they don't

have to pay taxes. They get there's no regulations or don't account. It's very fishy. The Chinese

seem to be behind it and this UN resolution which requires people to dare the ones behind the

land acknowledgments and I have a whole bunch of them here. In fact, the land acknowledgments

seems to be a way of softening us up. Play this clip from this woman who's tried to pass a bill

and she's a conservative in BC and this is the BC mess land acknowledgment story from the CBC.

One BC leader Dallas Brody says that land acknowledgments which are often what you hear when

you know a public official starts an event they'll say we're standing on the traditional territories

of the song he's in a squamble first nation. She says that that is teaching our children that they

live on stolen land that they should be ashamed of their history and for that reason that those

land acknowledgments should be banned among public public employees. Here's a bit of what Dallas

Brody had to say. Land acknowledgments are the anthem of a suicidal nation. They tell our children

that we stand on stolen land. So now this private members bill was voted down on first reading.

That is quite rare because even MLA's when they disagree with a private members bill they'll

still vote it through first reading to have a debate on it not so with bills put forward so far

by one BC. I will note that the entire BC conservative caucus voted against the bill except for

two. Harmon Bangu and Heather Moss. So this was an unwipped vote but showing a little bit of you

know fissures within the BC conservatives on how to approach this bill. And Katie what do first

nations leaders say about this proposed bill? Well I spoke with Robert Phillips he sits on the

First Nations political summit and or political executive of the First Nations summit and he says

that land acknowledgments are just acknowledging our history and are an important part of reconciliation.

We also spoke to BC conservative House leader Alia Warbus who is from the Stole First Nation

and you know she's quite disappointed with the spirit of this bill and here's a bit of what

she had to say. I've lived with racism all of my life.

It shouldn't be playing anymore is it? No it's not playing. So it sounds to me just listening to it

it sounds like they gave this land to the First Nations you know tax-free land it's all it's all

good and now they're like well you know we're going to acknowledge this but we're going to have

China buy it for the minerals and probably people are on the inside making a killing off of it.

Yep do you have any clips that confirm this? Not that part but I'm going to get some

because this is this is a big deal and it's going to kill BC and probably Washington state

because they're all suckered into it and it all stems from this 2016 UN resolution

and I think there's one previous in 2007 that we that that encourages people to do these land

acknowledgments which is only applicable to the United States and Canada. Nobody else does it.

No the South of America's don't do it and they stepped all over Amazonians and you know it's

ludicrous and which brings me to three clips I have of classic land acknowledgments that I

thought were funny enough to play. Okay so let's start with Paul's bow Washington wishes a

little town that is a little Norwegian copy of a little Norwegian town in Washington state that's

a tourist attraction nor region all the way and here's they have a city council meeting they do

this. Pulseville is located on the ancestral lands of the Indigenous Peaks so quamish people

from whom this place was known as tuk tuk la or the land of the vine maples and here's a quote by

chief Seattle. Every part of the soil is sacred and the estimation of my people every hillside

every every valley every plain and grove has been hollowed by some sad or happy event in days long

vanish. Thank you. Thank you councilwoman Crowe. Thank you. Thank you. You've acknowledged the land

very good unbelievable and and we don't know it most of us don't that the Los Angeles City Council

pulls this stunt. The city of Los Angeles recognizes that we occupy land originally and still

inhabited and cared for by the Keesh Tongva Tatavian and Chumash peoples. We honor and pay respect

to their elders and descendants past present and emerging as they continue their stewardship

of these lands and waters. We acknowledge that settler colonization resulted in land seizure,

disease, subjugation, slavery, relocation, broken promises, genocide, multi-generational trauma,

disruption of cultural practices, trade and tribal relations. This acknowledgement demonstrates

our responsibility and commitment to truth, healing and reconciliation and to elevating the stories,

culture and community of the original inhabitants of the city of Los Angeles. We are grateful to have

the opportunity to live and work on these ancestral lands. Wow. This is this is like Obama time.

We've gone back to this acknowledgement. Yeah and here's the DNC the latest kind of runs the DNC

this way or when they introduce when they open up a meeting at the DNC these Democrats by the way

this is what it sounds like. Good morning DNC members friends and relatives. Let's talk about the land

for a second. The DNC acknowledges and honors the Dakota Oyate, the Dakota people who are the

original stewards of the lands and waters of Minneapolis. Dakota cared for the lands, lakes in the

Wakatanka, the Great River, the Mississippi River for thousands of years before colonization.

This land was not cleaned or traded. It's a part of a history of broken treaties and promises

and in many ways we still live in a system built to suppress Indigenous people's cultural and

spiritual history. As Democrats I ask of every one of you to not allow land acknowledgments like

these just simply be the checking of a box. Be curious, ask questions, ensure our native neighbors

are heard and work in partnership with your Indigenous communities, honor the legacy of this land

and its people by engaging today with each other with honesty, humility, respect, and compassion.

Yeah. So much talk, talk, talk. Here in Fredericksburg we are actually bringing Comanche Nation back.

I hadn't told you about this. No. Yeah. Well the story goes that Fredericksburg had a treaty with

Comanche Nation, the Comanche Treaty of 1847 which we never broke. I'm not quite sure what the

treaty was, but I've had no flaming arrows. So I guess it's still in case in effect.

But we're bringing them back to the whole country for the, actually it was the Mosebach Comanche

Treaty of 1847. The Mosebach Mose is one of the original founders of Fredericksburg. I wouldn't

you know we're opening up this huge retail hotel space. Somebody, it's actually not far from our

house. It's on the west side of town which is going to do a lot to the, the west side of town.

So it's all commercial and we're bringing them back in for commercial stuff. We're going to do

the frontier fast at Ford Scott, Comanche Nation. They bring the Comaches back for the

ad to the tourist attraction list. Yes, exactly. But we're going to pay them. They want them.

They're going to get paid. It's going to be good. They want them. Yeah, I think so. I think so.

Yeah, we're friendly to the, to the Indian, to our Comanche Nation. Yeah, that goes. So we'll have

that we had the Hill Country Indian Artifacts show. That was just last week. The Comanche Nation

meeting took place earlier this week and then frontier fast. Where I don't know, I think we

will build totem poles and stuff. Yeah, yeah. It's better than this. Totem poles are not

Comanche, but what are totem poles? All those poles are in a high H a I D a type of

Indians up in the Pacific Northwest and Canada. Oh, really? Yeah. Oh, I thought all Indians

had totem poles. No, there's just this group. Very, I think there's any other outside the state

Washington and BC. All right, shifting gears from the First Nations. The president had another

fabulous cabinet meeting. I don't know if you had a chance to see any of it. Yeah, I watched it.

Some of it was, I thought entertaining. I thought our future president Rubio, because man,

he's pushing. He's pushing for it. He did his little mic drop Iran speech.

The most important job any president has is to keep the American people safe. And every president

says it, but we have a president that means it and does something about it. As the president outlined

very clearly to the world on the night this operation began, Iran has been at war with the United

States for 47 years. For 47 years, Iran has been killing Americans and attacking Americans across

this planet. And other presidents had an opportunity to do something about it. And they all warned

about how Iran was dangerous, but they refused to act. And this president's not someone that's

going to refuse to act. He's not going to leave a danger like this in place. He's going to address

it. And that is what he is doing. From the very first night of this operation, the president made

it very clear. People like this. And now what I'm talking about is not the people of Iran.

The people that run this country are radical shia clerics. These are religious fanatics. Look what

they are doing now at their weakest point. This is the weakest Iran has ever been. And look at what

they're doing. They're attacking embassies. They're embassies. They're attacking hotels.

Imagine what these people would do if they had a nuclear weapon. That is an unacceptable risk

for the world. By the way, the president is not just doing a favor to the United States and to

our people. This is for the world. He defined very clearly on the first night of this operation

what the goal was. We were going to destroy Iran's navy. And that is happening. We were going to,

if it hasn't already happened, I'll let people speak to the specifics of it. We were going to

destroy their missile launching capabilities. We're well under way to achieving that goal.

We were going to destroy the factory so they couldn't make more missiles and more drums.

And that is moving forward. Every single objective, the president clearly laid out on the first

night of this operation is being effectuated. Again, people speak to the specifics of it.

This has been an incredibly successful operation. Every day, it may not get covered because we're

unlike them. We're not bombing embassies in hotels. We're hitting military targets.

But I like about Rubio in these cabinet meetings is he speaks to the press.

Everyone else is like, oh, Mr. President, oh, under your leadership, oh, Mr. President,

and Rubio just goes for it. He's like, no, no, let me just tell you, press people, what I think.

So our our gay general patent, Scott Besent, I thought he was the most interesting of the

meeting. Did you see any of what he said? I can't think of anything. Well, here's his here's

his intro where he, I think he's saying that my job is important because economic security and

financial security is national security. Your economic leadership has made our military mission

possible. Mr. President, national security, as you always say, is economic security.

Your leadership has shown the American people that there is no prosperity without security,

that our mighty military on one side, but the US economic strength is fighting off this evil regime.

The Iranians believe they are fighting a two front war. It is the military war that our great

warriors are prosecuting. But on the other side, they are trying to take control of the global

economy through a choke point that we believe does not exist and that we will overcome.

The historic operation at Epic Fury seized a generational opportunity to demolish a regime

that has coordinated over four decades of global terror and claimed thousands of American lives.

Many people, especially the Democrats, underestimate the will of the American people for short-term

volatility for 50 years of safety that we are going to have on the other side of this.

And I believe energy prices will be lower, inflation will be lower before we had the appearance

of security, which is not real security. Now, the American people and the world will have

absolute security. I've been talking to the oil baron a lot lately. For obvious reasons,

because he's right in the middle of this. So he bought $77 puts and $150 calls on his oil.

I thought, you know, I'm not quite sure what that means.

I know I'm a trash.

Yeah, oh, it's complete arbitrage. But that's his risk spread is, hey, we can't lose if it goes

below $77 and we're not going to win above $115. But he too, he says, I am surprised,

and I thought a Texas oil man would know, because I'm surprised how impacted the world is

by the, by the Iranian regime, by the, by the straight.

I had no idea. I'm getting here. I'm getting notes from some of our producers. Actually,

that's, yeah, the guy, somebody in the cabinet or in the, the Department of War or somebody

in the CIA or somebody and they had to know that this was going to happen.

Oh, they must have known. And, and I think it's, I mean, what if they didn't?

Well, the next clip tells me I think they did, but it makes a lot more sense now that Obama sent

hundreds of millions of dollars on pallets over to Iran because everyone was afraid of this.

Like, ah, I don't want this on my watch. I don't want this nonsense happening.

Maybe, but Bessent, what he says in this, this thing was planned for a long time.

It, this could be him saying it after the fact, but I'm going to take it at face value.

They were planning this for over a year through your maximum pressure campaign.

Treasury has worked to uncover all financial lifelines through the regime and cut them off.

You gave that order last March. This was not the, this was not something that happened overnight.

This is something that has been contemplated for almost a year.

There find that the Iranian financial system collapsed in December.

We have systematically weakened Iran's ability to fund operations and procure weapons.

And that required months of preparations.

Threats to American national security have no place in the global economic system.

The oil market is well supplied.

We have taken actions to ensure oil supply stranded at sea are made available to the global market.

Your bold actions like the Development Finance Corporations Maritime Reinsurance Program

and conjunction with central command will soon provide shippers through the Gulf region

with a level of security we had never seen before.

Mr. President, we are starting to see more and more movement in and out of the Gulf today.

And this is more than yesterday.

And this is the beginning.

I am confident that shipping traffic will continue to increase on a daily basis

even before we secure the straits.

So it sounds like they were on this cutting off their financial lines,

making sure that they were depleted some of their capabilities and then struck.

Once Netanyahu told them to, of course.

So, you know, it sounds like they had a plan here.

Well, I'm sure they did.

I'm not sure that they expected to go this way.

I guess Rubio has some comment that's going to last another four weeks.

Yeah, I think I have that here, Hold on a second.

John Kennedy also said that when we just get out, we won.

Hold my approach.

Where's my Rubio?

I had another, here we go.

This was on the tarmac.

This is not going to be a problem.

The objectives I've outlined to you.

Again, I repeat them because I see these reports.

Like if you use the talk clear on what objectives are,

we've been as close you can possibly leave from the very first night

of what the objectives of this mission are.

We're going to destroy their factories to make missiles and rockets and drones.

We're going to destroy their Navy.

We're going to destroy their Air Force.

And we are going to significantly destroy their missile launchers.

So they can never hide behind these things to get a nuclear weapon.

We are achieving all those objectives.

We are ahead of schedule on most of them.

And we can achieve them without any ground troops, without any.

Now, in terms of why there's deployments,

number one, the President has to be prepared for multiple contingencies

which I'm not going to discuss in the media.

And again, I refer you to the Department of War

who will probably tell you the exact same thing.

But we can achieve all of our objectives with our ground troops.

But we are always going to be prepared to give the President maximum

optionality and maximum opportunity to adjust to contingency.

Optionality.

Optionality needs some up.

So I'm just back to the cabinet meeting for a moment.

So after Besson does this whole thing,

and then he says how great everything here is at home,

which I think most people who are listening would dispute.

Without a doubt, Europe, UK, Asia,

I mean, they're talking about going back to work from home.

It's like, we got no gas.

It's going to be the worst since the 70s.

Yeah, we're paying more, but I don't think we have those types of problems.

So I'm sure that we can ride that out a lot longer.

So he goes through this whole thing, and then here's what the President says.

I just want to ask you a question.

Is this kind of central case?

I'm looking at him.

I mean, Treasury, he might not be so good for war, I don't know.

No, I'm looking pretty good to him.

I'm looking at this guy.

He's central casting.

He's even the glasses are perfect.

I think I'm going to get glasses like that's real fun.

Great job.

That's really good.

No, he's done a great job.

You all have proud of you all.

Yeah, proud of you all, proud of you all.

Well, at least it sounds like he has a plan.

It's not written down anywhere on paper that we can read,

but I'm sure it's written down somewhere.

Why do you think we need to get out so quickly?

I mean, besides the fact that war sucks.

Well, if we've done all everything, here's my problem.

The stuff that Trump says that we've done,

which is take out the Navy, the Army, the guys, this guy, that guy.

There's no air force, there's no command and control, there's nothing.

It has left a vacuum of these IRG

renegades.

I think they're all acting independently.

They're all over the place.

And each one of them might be wanting to

vie for power at some point.

And you've got to let this thing settle out.

Otherwise, you're never going to get this straight

to open again, because one nut ball or another

or any number of them, some place with some of those

Shaheed drones, for example, can keep the things shut down forever.

The problem with the Shaheed drone, which has always fascinated me.

Now, I don't understand how this happened.

Those things cost $75,000 to make.

They have wooden props and they go slow and

then they get the big bomb and they blow stuff up and they're not that great.

They're basically modern V1s.

Yeah, kind of, with a less advanced propulsion system.

Yeah.

And so to 75, it cost us, we shoot them down

unless you can get a jet up in the air, which is not cheap.

It costs us a million bucks to shoot one down.

Well, $330,000 for a missile.

So it costs 300,000 to 75,000.

I mean, you go broke with the, they have enough of these things.

So get out, let things settle down, let the

straits get reopened so people don't freak out.

Yeah, but that doesn't seem to be the idea.

The idea seems to be.

No, no, it's definitely not the idea.

The idea seems, take Carg Island and be in control of everything and they're still,

they still want to get rid of some of these IRG, IRGC guys.

But here's General Frank McKenzie retired on with Margaret from this morning.

One of the things that Iran had been waiting to do was activate its militias,

or the militias that supports in Yemen, the Houthis.

Over the weekend, they jumped into the fight.

Yeah, we were missing those guys.

They hadn't shown up and all of a sudden, right on cue.

And fired on Israel, do you think that this is a game changer, given that they could not

just disrupt the street of Hormuz, but another passageway through the Red Sea?

Margaret, I don't think it'll be a game changer.

Their ability to attack Israel is quite limited.

Yes, they will have the ability to further stop slow traffic through the Babelman

Deb going up into the Suez Canal.

We have the ability to go down there and prevent that.

It will require additional resources.

But we have those resources and we can certainly do it if that becomes necessary.

Well, the president has made clear that he needs to reopen the street of Hormuz.

His language has been contradictory on some of these points as to who's going to do it and when.

What's the military reality of making it passable?

We're on our way to doing that now, Margaret.

This is a part of a plan that's been in existence for many years.

What we're doing right now is we're reducing Iranian ability to target ships in the

street through their short-range missiles, their drones and other activities.

We do that by maintaining air superiority over southern Iran on a 24-7 basis,

looking for where these missiles are and striking them relentlessly.

Once we reduce those to a very low level, then you'll be able to go in.

If necessary, sweep from mines.

I'm not certain they put mines in the water yet.

I predict eventually they will.

It's their nature.

But we have the ability to do this.

We're on plan.

I'll be honest with you, Margaret.

I've simulated this many years and many positions at Central Command.

We're a little further along than we would have expected to be at this point

and all the simulations that I've seen.

All right, so they were ready for this.

Has been a plan for everybody.

Everybody says we're further along.

Yeah, well, let's go to the next one.

So the president had posted, he's postponed the deadline to open the

Strait of Hormuz as a result of the Iranian government asking for it.

He says he shifted that to April 6th at 8 p.m.

We also hear from the Secretary of State that he's talking to the allies

about a post-conflict necessity of having other countries help to

essentially police the Strait.

And he said that you will need tankers to have military escorts.

So this doesn't sound like this is a short-term project.

This sounds like even if combat ends, we're going to be talking about

a military presence in the region for some time.

Am I wrong?

Margaret, you could be right.

Let's see what happens.

I think they're two ways the Strait of Hormuz can be opened.

It can be opened if the Iranian is negotiating it with us to open it.

And of course, that's the desired solution.

The other solution would be if they don't and they decide to fight,

we can open the Strait under that condition too.

The second condition is obviously a lot more intensive in terms of ships and

equipment that would have to bring into the region.

And yes, help from our allies would certainly be very useful in that case.

We have the ability to open the Strait of Hormuz

under any condition that the Iranians choose to exist under.

Yeah, so we're maybe keeping it artificially closed.

Final clip is boots on the ground.

Does it appear to you that one of the contingencies that they

White House is planning for, given that they're continuing to move troops into

the region and you have these Marines who are moving into the area as well?

Are they preparing for a ground troop presence?

And what does that look like?

Margaret, for many years we've considered options along the southern coast of Iran.

We're seizing islands, seizing small bases.

Typically raids and a raid is an operation with a planned withdrawal.

You're not going to stay.

But some of those islands you could seize and hold.

That would have a couple of effects.

First of all, it would be profoundly humiliating for Iran

and would give us great weight and negotiations.

The second example of Carg Island, which everyone talks about,

if you seize Carg Island, you really can shut down the Iranian oil economy completely.

And the beauty of seizing it is, you're not destroying it.

You're retaining it for further use by the global economy

and possibly for return to Iran under certain conditions.

So all of these things, this is not back of the, these are not back of the envelope calculations.

These are things we've been working on for many years.

And I think we're right to threaten the entire littoral, to hold all these options out there.

And I think the President's message is spot on when he talks about all these alternatives.

So, seizing hold is the...

Dad brings me to this, this screwy clip I picked up

off of a recording, then, like, four in the morning on one of the networks.

Was that one of your, oh my god, I can't sleep mornings?

No, it was just running.

This is a Navy Intel guy, and we know Navy Intelligence

is the progenitor of all these people.

Yeah, they typically do podcasts.

And he's like, yeah, this guy would be loyal.

They're on X.

And he is X, of course, X Navy Intel.

And the funny thing is, he's got all this up to date information

for some unknown reason, I don't know.

And I thought this was because this kind of ties in with what the other guy just said.

So, let's bring in former Naval Intelligence Officer Captain Todd Sawhill.

Captain, thank you for joining us.

Help square for us the fact that we just heard Secretary of State Marco Rubio

saying that this is about two to four weeks left,

but yet reports of 10,000 more troops being sent to the region.

After we already know the 82nd Airborne on their way,

and then, of course, that Marine 31st Mew is on its way.

So, I think the movement of the ground forces and the enablers,

and, as you mentioned, particularly the boxer and the triply amphibious ready groups

and the marine expedition, he has plus the elements of the 82nd really center

around making sure the President has maximum options.

Optionality.

The ground operations in any part of Iran are necessary.

And before I just list off all the key islands,

I don't necessarily want to focus on that because I don't want to telegraph

what we may or may not do, because really that's the decision-making level

for the President of the Secretary of Defense.

But, beyond holding territorial risk, those forces could also be used for

internal security in and around the bases in the region,

as well as potentially raids for the nuclear material

should present a term, and that's the only way to retrieve it,

because we're currently at such loggerheads on the conditions

for cessation between the U.S. and Iran.

So, ultimately, it's all about options as we continue to really set the conditions

with rolling back the missile drone and air to ground forces

that have been significantly degraded over the last three weeks.

Right, so that fits in with Rubio's optionality,

everything's an optionality.

So, we have options.

Here's the boots on the ground update from our producer in the region,

which I thought was interesting.

Wild morning still alive, been up since 2 a.m.

followed by the most aggressive five hours in Bahrain, 20 ballistic missiles, and 37 drones.

The trend seems that they are aggressively swarming the skies

to overcome the good interception rates.

The problem here is that the country is just too small for that kind of action.

The overall size of the whole island is the size of San Diego or Austin,

and the economy is too small for such a beating.

Each interception is a patriot missile, which he says costs a couple million.

We are still trying our best to build a tourism economy,

and that is really hurting our strained economy.

So, our good friend Netanyahu decided to aggressively bomb three steel plants across Iran.

For some reason, unlike all other targets,

Israeli press explicitly stated steel plants were hit,

although they don't usually reveal this type of target in most cases.

In return, our good neighbors, Iran,

decided to attack five steel and aluminum plants in the GCC,

stating to punish the enemy for attacking civilian infrastructure.

The guy was crazy enough to bomb near Bushar nuclear facility,

an active nuclear power plant, which triggered an alarmed response from the whole region

on potential nuclear meltdown, and Putin himself as the plant is operated by Russia's state

atomic energy corporation, Rosatom.

The US seems to be building a massive set of ground troops as a deterrent to push the

negotiation under extreme pressure, and the Israelis are trying every possible way to expand

and complicate the conflict. A ground invasion is nearly impossible,

taking away islands within the effective shooting range of Iran,

may result in high casualties among the best marine units the US has to offer.

Let's hope Trump can retain him further because he causes a bigger mess,

he's talking about Netanyahu, and maybe manage to get JD to the front

to build his peacemaker legacy and secure the GOP vote for the next 10 years.

So that's how they're thinking in the region, which sounds about right.

That's about right. So we had CPAC,

which this is the first time President Trump has not attended CPAC,

due to the war and other things. He's busy.

But they had some interesting speakers.

Reverend Franklin Graham came out, pretty unimpressive speech. I didn't pull any clips from it,

and mainly because he started off with, you know, Iran, we had a week president and Jimmy Carter,

and they had our people in the embassy for 400 days, and the minute President Reagan came in,

let him all out because they were afraid of him. I'm like, no, I don't think so, Reverend.

No, no, no, no, no. I don't think so, Reverend. That was a different deal at the time.

But also invited was the Crown Prince, Reza Palavi, which I don't know, well, it seemed like CPAC

was almost the conservative Persian action to Congress, or whatever they call it,

a convention, because the Persians came out like crazy for this guy.

The only thing that the remnants of this regime can be relied on to do is to buy time,

to cheat and to steal. They will never be honest or true partners for peace.

President Trump was right when he said, we don't want to come back every two years.

But if a fraction of the regime is left in power, that is exactly what will happen.

It will buy time, it will pretend to negotiate, and then it will return to its old jihadist ways

of threatening America, its security, and its interests.

They might promise a short period of artificial calm, but it would inevitably be followed by

the same terrorism, the same nuclear blackmail, and the same prize of death to America.

Because the truth is simple, the Islamic Republic cannot reform itself.

You cannot reform a snake, venom is in its DNA.

This extends to the corrupt and brutal stocks of the IRGC,

because the IRGC is not Iran's national army. Indeed, it does not even have the world

Iran in its name. It is the Islamic Revolution Guard Corps. It serves its own poisonous

ideology of terror and not Iran's national interests. So it can certainly never be a partner

to serve America's interests. So I cut all of those applauses, I had to cut out.

I'm sure they went on forever. 15 seconds, and then they started chanting.

Thank you so much. I have four men on the left, I'm halfway through my speech.

When I was a student at Berkeley, it's the same Iranian students who promoted the

getting rid of the shah, the shah must go. It was the American Persians that pretty much

created this monstrosity that they were stuck with. These kids don't get it right ever.

You're saying it wrong. These kids, I can't quite do it. These kids.

So I'll just finish up with him 30 seconds of President Trump rocks.

The only path to lasting peace and stability runs through a clean break with this regime.

For the first time in 47 years, President Trump's strategy has given us a real chance

to achieve that outcome. For decades, every American president since Jimmy Carter

chose to try to manage his looming threat rather than resolve it. Each of them has failed.

They have only made the problem worse. The result has been more dead Iranians and more dead Americans.

So the moon was operated on the assumption that America didn't have the stomach to confront them

decisively. That assumption began to collapse when President Trump ordered the strike on

post-censore day money. Yeah, so plan or no plan. Well, you know, Carter didn't have

this stomach to stop it and stop it. Reagan didn't have this stomach once after the barracks

were blowed up. He took off. Nobody wanted to do anything about this. Yes, and then we had

bush. He was too busy protecting his oil fields in Iraq or daddy's oil fields.

And Kuwait. And Obama went, let me just hang out with the Muslim brotherhood and I'll pay you guys.

Yeah, I'll pay you guys off and calm down here. And so Trump, this is his legacy move.

That seems clear. Well, I hope he pulls it off. War is not my favorite thing.

Well, we'll see. Anyway, he goes. I think I think I have a clip about some of this.

Where's my analysis clips? You're back to full strength. You're you're titling them anal. So

you must be on the mend. What? I take what? Oh, that means analysis. Yeah, I know.

No, yes, I'm aware of around you. Well, there's one about that. We might as well bring

the Lebanese stuff in and then we take a look for the other one. Lebanese vicinity stuff.

This is an overview of what the Israelis are doing while we're trying to take over Iran.

Connected to this is fighting that's happening in Lebanon. That's where Israel has launched an

invasion of the south of the country. And Iran backed Hezbollah has been firing back. Can you just

update us on what's happening there? Absolutely. There have been more than a million Lebanese

displaced. And that's like 20% of the population as Israel depopulates entire towns and Beirut's

huge southern suburbs. And the impact of that invasion and the fighting between Israel and Hezbollah

is becoming increasingly dangerous to document Israel today killed three journalists in an

airstrike on their vehicle. One of them was a correspondent for Hezbollah's television channel

who has been reporting from the south for almost 30 years. Israel claimed without evident

claimed without evident claimed without evidence. He was a Hezbollah operative. In fact, a member of

one of their elite forces. But the actions that Israel described identifying where Israeli forces

were and contacts with Hezbollah are actually normal journalistic practices. Israel didn't comment

on the other two journalists killed with him. We've talked so far about the latest developments

in this now month-long war. But are there other repercussions worth pointing to right now for

other countries? Absolutely. This war is so different because it's really difficult to find any

country untouched by this in the region. One of the effects is that some of the busiest airports

in the region have shut down, leaving people stranded. Israel has restricted outgoing flights.

And this week the US Embassy in Israel announced it was arranging buses from Israel to the Amman

airport in Jordan to fly people out of here. Kuwait announced that its airport radar had been

damaged. Its airport has been closed for almost a month. I love how she portrays the beautiful

southern sub-beautiful suburbs of southern Lebanon. Lebanon has been a mess since I was a kid.

At one time it was the Paris of the Middle East. Yeah, in the 60s, late 60s.

I don't know, I don't know, the probably late 60s.

Yeah. I mean, Iran was cool then too.

Here's the clips. This is the Iran-Houthis update in PR.

Iranian-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen have entered the US-Israeli war in Iran firing a missile

at Israel, which Israel says was intercepted. It's the first time Israel faced fire from that country

since the war began and it opens a new front in the two-month-old conflict. Meanwhile, the Pentagon

says around 3,500 sailors and Marines have arrived in the Middle East. In Pyarshondalee

Stuster has more. US Central Command said Saturday in a social media post that about 3,500

sailors and Marines arrived in a Middle East aboard the USS Tripoli. The 31st Marine Expeditionary

Unit, based in Okinawa, Japan, arrived in a Middle East on Friday, the post said. The unit also

has transport and strike fighter aircraft, as well as amphibious assault and tactical assets.

US Central Command did not say would mission the unit will be carrying out.

At least 2,000 additional soldiers have been ordered to deploy to the Middle East,

where the US already has 40,000 to 50,000 troops.

People always leave out the fact that you already have 50,000 troops there.

Oh, yeah.

Scattered around.

Yeah.

So, and here's the analysis.

We're joined by NPR's Jaina Raff, who's following events from Aman Jordan.

Jaina, thanks for taking the time.

Thank you.

Can you start with telling us what happened in Saudi Arabia?

Well, this was an attack on the Prince Sultan Air Base, and that's a Saudi base,

but it's also a regional US military hub that focuses on aerial refueling and missile defense

systems. At least six missiles and more than two dozen drones were fired by Iran,

according to US officials who requested anonymity.

And military experts are calling it a serious breach of US air defenses.

A several of those wounded service people were reported to be seriously wounded.

The attacks also damaged refueling tankers.

Iran released Chinese satellite images that appear to show burning aircraft,

and it said it had destroyed two of the airborne tankers.

They refuel fighter jets in the air and damaged others.

That's after Israel struck three Iranian steel plants and a nuclear facility.

The international nuclear watchdog said there was no risk of radiation leak from that strike.

Yeah, there's a lot of action.

There's definitely a lot of action. The GCC, the Gulf,

is it the Gulf Commonwealth? What do they call that? GCC?

Not sure. GCC, well, they call them the GCC state. So they have also filed with

United Nations just like the US did under Article 51 saying, hey, we are reaffirming our full

and inherent right to self-defense. And we're going to start striking back. So it looks like

we've got them on our side. Although I still got a lot of military commentary saying,

no, everyone hates us. They want us out of our bases. I don't know. You're right.

A lot of action, we don't actually know anything. Breaking news. Nobody knows nothing.

Right. So President Trump had a Saudi investor summit,

which is all money coming into America. And he had some interesting commentary.

They are negotiating. They're begging to make a deal. They're begging to make a deal.

Turned out I was right. They weren't negotiating. We say admitted two days later.

And in order to make up for their misstatement, they said, we're going to send you eight ships of oil

and the following day I saw, and this is two days ago I saw in one of the networks.

First range, there were eight ships of oil coming out of Iran. And then they actually said,

we're going to add an extra two. And they added an extra two. So we had ten ships. And then

people realized we were actually negotiating. And we're negotiating now. And be great if we

could do something, but they have to open it up. They have to open up the straight of Trump. I mean,

Harmuth. Excuse me for, I'm so sorry. Such a terrible mistake. The fake news will say,

he accidentally said, no, there's no accidents with me. Not too many.

If they were, whatever, major story. Well, we had that with a Gulf of Mexico. Remember

a Gulf of Mexico? And then it goes into this whole Gulf of America thing. The straight of Trump.

Okay. But by the way, there's no evidence that there was any eight or ten ships that went

through with none. I've seen if anything too. Yeah, one guy has a video show on YouTube.

Yeah, it's the state of shipping today. I think it's one guy. Yeah, he's like, yeah, he

betrays every single ship. I don't see it. He says, he's where he's, what are you talking about?

There's no, there's zero ships, but he also said, well, there's a lot of GPS spoofing and that

ship is over there, but I think it's over here. So, you know, nobody really knows anything.

Well, there's again, no evidence. I think Trump's full of it.

Well, that wouldn't be the first time. But you don't know.

No, it's a problem. Best, best sense is that, you know, there's oil at sea that we do know.

Yeah, tons. So, and he's allowing that to be offloaded. So that's probably helping somebody,

somewhere. And NATO is still very much in the crosshairs. This is NATO. And I've always said,

there's a paper tiger. And I always said, we help NATO, but they'll never help us.

And if the big one ever happened, and I don't think it will, but if the big one ever happened,

I guarantee you they wouldn't be there. And we learned from that. And remember what I said,

because they made a big mistake. They were not there. The Chancellor of Germany. These are

old friends of mine, Friedrich. People of Germany, he said, this is not our war. We have nothing

to do. Well, Ukraine is not our war, but we help them. He keeps slamming NATO.

I'm not sure what the plan is, but he keeps talking about it. I'm like, oh, they weren't here to help us.

And then, and this was quite telling. And this is regarding our own economy here. And the fabulous AI

hype that we're in. It was just kind of telling the way he answered this question.

We'll take some questions. Thank you. Thank you very much, Mr. President. Thank you so

much. And thank you for accepting to take five questions. We don't go to take too much of your time.

So let's talk about business. In one sentence, where should the world invest in America right now?

Well, I looked the one that they're going crazy about is AI. Now, sometimes you'll say,

let's go the opposite, because I've seen it, you know, everyone goes, but AI is going crazy.

AI. So my family, we made Don, the whole family, Erick is doing a good job. All of us,

Ivanka, we like to real estate. When you can make money and real estate, it's a great business,

but I see some of these guys come into my office, they're wearing a t-shirt and they're 24 years old.

Dad, he's got a net worth of $24 billion. I said, you got to be kidding. Or for little contraption.

So, but the money seems to be just going to stop all for a little contraption.

Yeah, there's contraptions in the money.

contraptions are doing it.

Dad, he's got a net worth of $24 billion. I said, you got to be kidding. Or for little contraption.

So, but the money seems to be right now, AI. And also, if you're in school, like you're going to the

Wharton School or the Stern School or any of these great schools, I mean, the numbers that they're

paying to go into that business is incredible. Where you see people getting a $10 million bonus

to sign. Like baseball players or football players, we're giving you a $10 million. I mean, I hate

to say because it sounds ridiculous, but there have been some $100 million bonuses paid to sign.

So, I think probably if you're going to say one thing, AI, and just hope that it works, right?

You better hope it works.

Well, it seems like we have this interesting race now between open AI and anthropic who's

going to come out first, who's going to go public first. Yeah, this is funny.

And anthropic is for all I can see, they're killing it because those guys focus on one thing and

one thing only code. Make sure the thing can code. And all the developers I know have now moved

over to Claude. Everybody's using Claude to code. It's not a chat, but like, you know, it's not like

open AI, they focused on kind of general chat, entertainment, answering questions.

They don't seem to have the coding part down as much, but they certainly have the user base.

And then we got a boots on the ground, because I'm always wondering how things are going to

how they're paying for all of this. This is from what's this? Natalie, I think.

I was at the playground the other day and started talking to one of the dads there,

hitting up the dads at the playground. He mentioned he worked in the finance department of Google

for the Gemini group. I mentioned I was curious about the profitability of AI because I heard a lot

of companies are bleeding money. A big grin popped up on his face. He told me that Gemini was

profitable because they've integrated the entire supply chain. Google doesn't have to rent out

data centers. They already have them or buy chips from Nvidia. They developed their own, I think.

We wanted to discuss more, but his little goal started to get upset, so we had to move to a

different part of the playground. Gemini, they have an interesting, for search, they've got a great

advantage. They've got all the YouTube stuff and they've got Google. And now they say,

well, who are the winners going to be? Rick Bito, our boy, Rick Bito over there, the music guy,

he's come to the same conclusion I have about using local models at home.

And this is what I think is going to happen with these AI companies. The data centers,

they're going to be sitting there unused. Many of them will not be built when people start using AI

locally, meaning on their computer. And the same thing to happen to the music business and recording

is going to happen to these AI companies. Because people are going to realize, oh, I can do this

at my house. I don't need to be paying these companies. If a 64-year-old guy like me can figure this

out last night and show you today, how hard can this stuff be? People are using these things

sooner when you deal with everything from music creation. People are taking their business

contracts and everything. They're feeding into Chatchee PT. People are taking any of their

business things or financial information. They're feeding into these things and they're training

off your data that you own yourself, your own personal information, your own intellectual

properties. And why is that? Because you and me are the product. So who are the winners and

losers of this? Well, the companies that make hardware like Apple, Google, Nvidia, any company that

makes computers, computer chips, things like that. Those are the ones that are going to be the winners.

Unfortunately, the ones that are going to be the losers, in my opinion, are the companies

that make these AI programs. For most people's needs, individuals, and businesses, even good size

businesses, you can do these things on your own computers offline. What are you doing with your

mic? I got my foot tangled up in the court. Careful. You know, Apple may have some really

interesting advantage here. They have that, the M4, what is it called? It's not, yeah, I don't know

what it's called. But let me let me mention that. I should mention something JC talked about.

He says that new Apple laptop. Yeah, 595 bucks. Oh, yeah, yeah. That finally has a touch screen

and he says it's a killer. Yeah, that really got under play or downplayed. You didn't get played

at all. I didn't even know anything about it. But I know that they did it's colorful. Well, I know

that the Mac minis are sold out for months. You know, everybody's got a Mac mini. Yeah, but it's

what is the, they have a special, so they use their RAM, their regular RAM. Yeah, you can load it

up with RAM, you can load it up with 256 gigabytes or more, I think, I don't know about the Mac mini.

It can automatically allocate some of that RAM instead of a GPU like an Nvidia card.

So they may accidentally have done something really, really smart.

We'll see. Yeah, obviously, we'll see. We don't know. Nobody knows anything, John.

And then this is the best. I'd love to hear your opinion on this.

You live for the stars. What is the clip? You don't know what my clip is yet.

The other sh- Artemis. No, no wrong. Sky high valuation. Elon Musk's SpaceX is

suiting up to launch his IPO. A public share sale that would value the rocket company at an

eye-watering $1.5 trillion. First reported by the tech site, the information, the sale is expected

to float some 5% of the company's equity, aiming to raise around $75 billion, which would make it

the largest IPO in history. Unlike many tech firms seeking investor funding on public markets,

SpaceX already has significant cash flow. Largely thanks to the lucrative government contracts

it receives and its major profit generator, Starlink. This satellite internet provider is

estimated to have generated $8 billion in 2025, accounting for 50 to 80% of SpaceX total revenue.

So I go public, the SpaceX acquisition of XAI in February saddled it with a cash-hungry

subsidiary that is reportedly burning through a billion dollars per month, as it uses to catch

up with rivals like OpenAI and Anthropic, both of which are also planning to go public.

IPO proceeds would also fund further development of the Starship rocket and more aspirational projects,

like AI data centers in space, and mean-based Alpha as self-reliant lunar city.

The move comes with potential downsides for the notoriously regulation of Earth's musk,

like requirements for public performance reports and having to answer to Wall Street analysts.

$1.75 trillion dollar valuation. Are you kidding me?

That's crazy. And he's talking about, yeah, we're gonna, we need one,

why is he one terro-watt of compute? It's like, I don't think investors are buying his

bullcrap anymore. And we'll see, I wish they sells out. You think? Really?

Yeah, it's only a small part of the company. Not unloading everything.

No, but still, the valuation is high. It's ridiculous.

And his, an X AI is junk. It's junk. Because it was trained on junk. It's just junk.

Yeah, and all he ever touts on X is, oh, look at this, oh, look at this animation of this pixie

girl flying around the clock. Looks great. Okay, who's gonna pay for that?

No. My money's-

All these IPO's are gonna be the death and hell of the market.

Well, everyone has to get out. We got to make it. We got to, well, the early investors will

get out. No, maybe. No, no, no. I'm reminded of that game company back in the 80s that waited one

day too long to do the IPO in the market crashed. What, was that Sega? No, no, Sega was no,

Sega is different. No, it was a specifically a cartridge company that made cartridges for the

Atari 2600. Here's- I thought you- I thought you might be bringing this up, which was the ass-

my astronaut clip, which is very disappointing if true. I know. I know. We're all disappointed, John.

The NASA astronaut who suffered that medical scare offering new insights, and I might think,

says he suddenly could not speak for 20 minutes on the International Space Station. His crew,

of course, noticing him, in distress. It prompted that first medical evacuation for NASA.

Fink now saying, doctors believe it was not choking or a heart attack, but he's still undergoing

tests to determine what it really was. Yeah, that was not- if true, that was not your prediction,

I should say, your prediction of a pregnancy, pregnancy in space. And notice something like that,

where you can't talk for 20 minutes, never happens to a female astronaut, just saying.

Yeah, there it is. Took me a minute to get it out, but there it is.

I've got an off-beat clip if you want to hear it. Sure.

Alex Jones has a new sidekick. He does?

The guy's name is bashing or something, but no, he had no bashing, it's the name of the clip.

He's introduced in here. This guy- Alex has always had this second- the secondary guys that

come in and can fill in and do it, show themselves. They eventually run off and do their own shows.

Yeah, like that British kid and his whole mind, you could have become one of them.

Yeah, but I already had a partner who I love and cherish.

Well, although I'm noticing my voice is starting to sound like him today, you know what I'm saying?

Try this. I've read the documents. I've read the documents. I know their plans.

Maybe. So here he is bashing. He hates the Zeds for some reason. Here he is with his buddy,

his new buddy, bashing the Zeds. And I just, he's just an eyeroller.

Burma's good to see. I'm in love with you, host of the show. What a crazy time to be alive there.

It certainly is, Alex, and just to kind of piggyback on what you were talking about via this

generation and being just addicted to the scroll box. And it's not just this idea of track

trace database. It's not just this idea of totally and completely taking away their attention.

The studies are now out. You know, this was going to be part of me talking about AGI,

what's going on right now with these data centers. But we're talking about a generation right now,

generation Z quote unquote, that is not interested in the real world. They don't want to date.

They don't want jobs. They don't want a car because it's their own little comfortable world.

Well, they, they're 40% less cognizant in both speech and writing period full stop.

I mean, it's not just a big major study. 40% less cognizant in speech and thought literally

retarded. So by the line, I phone and smart phones and games have literally made the younger

generations retarded. Well, looking at this way, Alex, you know, my generation, your generation

were only about five years apart. I would argue maybe the people 10, 15 years younger than us

are really what created this idea of a podcast. I mean, you're a pioneer outside of the mainstream

media, aka long form content. Yet when we started seeing these video platforms ever emerging,

you just mentioned metal. Well, they own Instagram. This is a bunch of bull crap.

Thought so too. So come on. I stopped at that point where he brings up the obviousity that

metal. What do you say? So I'm like, you know what? Hey, Adam. Yeah. What? Yeah, I'm here. What?

You know what, Adam? What meta owns Instagram? No, get out of town. Next year, you're going to

tell me they won't WhatsApp. No, no, no, you can't be telling me that. Yeah. This is bad for Alex.

I don't know why he's chosen this, but I've seen this this side kick. I don't know the guy's name.

The guy, the guy's interesting. He's also a UFC guy. He's like a Rogan. Oh, okay. That's the

reason that's the hook. No, this is because Alex is on the wrong side of this 40% of the Zeds

are exactly the audience he can pull in because they don't want the phones. They are they're going

way more conservative. They want to date. I know they went vinyl discs. They want vinyl discs.

They want cassettes. And then his whole contingent that wants cassette tape. Yeah. And look at

Brunetti's kid. They want Bibles. I'm telling you. This is he's wrong about this. The people who

are addicted are Gen X. Yeah, I agree. They're the ones that are completely sucked into this stuff.

Man, the women here in Fredericks, older millennials to older millennials. Yeah. Yeah. I mean,

and they're watching Candace Owens. They're on the edge of their seat every day at four

o'clock. Oh, Candace is coming. That Eric a Kirk. I'm telling you, she's no good. She's no good.

And the short form videos. They're doom scrolling. They're butts off.

The only saving grace for them is that GLP one will help stop their addiction.

This is coming. This is maybe this is my new prediction after erectile dysfunction.

GLP one ozempic will help you stop your doom scrolling addiction. It already does for cocaine

and alcohol, you know, supposedly it wouldn't surprise me. So that's coming.

Since you mentioned Candace. Uh oh. I have a super cut that was done by Milk Bar TV.

Every comment she's made about getting to the bottom of the Charlie Kirk

assassination. Yeah. Over the last two or a half years. How long is this thing? Is it 15 minutes long?

It could it could have been, but I think it did. What is the length?

Oh, 114. Okay. Yeah, 114. It's not bad. There we go.

Going and we are definitively getting closer to what took place on that day and we are getting

closer. I think we're close. We are definitively getting closer. We're getting close. We're getting

very close. We're inching ever closer. We are now, I believe, extremely close to solving this

thing. As I get inch closer and closer to discovering the truth, I've got to feeling about that.

We're we're close. We're getting closer to something and that something is pretty big. It just

sends that we're getting close. I sense that we are getting very close and we are getting closer

getting very close to something. We're getting closer because we are getting close. We are

definitely getting closer, very close. We are very close. We are close. We are we are dangerously

close to something. We are dead close to something and I think every day we are inching closer

to killed Charlie Kirk. You know we're getting close. We're inching ever closer. We are inching

closer. Little closer to solving the Charlie Kirk murder. I'm getting very close and we are

getting very close. But I'm getting closer. I'm getting real close. My prayers are with you,

Candace. You are close. We are close and we're getting closer to the truth. Get closer. We are

getting close. She's very close now. Jason Burmus is the name of the guy. Yeah. The sidekick. He also,

I think he was one of the producers of the loose change that I remember that the dockiest quote,

unquote, documentary about 9-11. No. Yeah. And loose change 9-11 in American coup. That's

what it was. It came out around 20 2009, 2010. Yeah. There's something about, and I feel there's

a backlash growing against the Candace, just the whole group because it's so annoying. They're just,

it's so much infighting. And you've got Megan Kelly fighting with Mark Levin online.

You have a micro penis. It's like, what are we doing? You can't, I should forbid them from calling

their shows podcasts. I think I have the right to do that. That you, they should stop doing that.

Now we have two podcasters in our administration, which was, I just have to play this for the

presentation of it. This is the announcement of a federal health care advisory committee.

And this is your HHS secretary, RFK Jr. And Dr. Oz, they're like doing a podcast now.

It's the presentation was just, it was all inspiring really. Hi, I'm Robert,

I've got any junior, your HHS secretary. And I'm Dr. Memadaz, CMS administrator.

Hey, cold buns, you know, the health policy seems like everybody's a pessimist. The systems to

broken, the interest groups are too powerful. The incentives, the malaligned, the whole things

too complicated. Dr. Oz ever offer some products on TV? Was he, was he ever, was he only a,

a doctor doctor? Or did he ever like have some gambit to sell? He was, uh,

yet a syndicated TV show. And there was some pride that he sold that was one of these scamish,

you know, wellness things that does, does, does, does the other wellness thing does nothing.

And he got called before Congress, it was, be rated. Well, it's, this is what the problem here

is, it sounds like these guys are selling me something that I don't want. This administration rejects

that mindset. We take on the broken systems, we challenge the interest and we fix misaligned

incentives to deliver real results, real results, bringing together the top talent to take

on the toughest challenges ahead on. And that's why today we are announcing the members of our new

healthcare advisory committee, which will develop recommendations for how Secretary Kennedy and I

can improve Medicare, Medicaid, the children's health insurance program and the health insurance

marketplaces. Yeah, it was, that's right. I think it was that Dr. Oz green coffee beans.

This just sounds like an infomercial. Their insights will help us cut costs, slash red tape,

improve quality care, keep programs solvent and refocus crazy at these prices are insane healthcare

and the people it is meant to serve the patients. I'm so proud of the team that we've assembled.

We reviewed more than 400 candidates from all across the country and we selected just 18.

These individuals bring extensive experience from state and federal government,

from health system management, from non-profits and health technology innovation.

Even RFK juniors doing better with his voice. These guys, they're, they're pitching, they're

pitching hard. I know there's something about it that just doesn't feel right.

You know, back to my hospital experience. Here we go.

I don't think these hospitals, and I would say specifically the, the, the cafeteria,

for the people that's the dinners they serve you. This is all stuff from the 1940s.

You know, the jello and everything's prepackaged, horrible puddings, a bunch of, everything's

a spardam. It's loaded with artificial sweeteners. It's like nobody ever heard of Kennedy,

and I see no influence or impact whatsoever. Oh, I'm Kennedy. Interesting point. Yeah, well,

but the, the jello, that's contracts. I mean, those contracts have been around since,

since built, it's not even jello. It's some other off brand of jello and dessert that is

unedible. It's a gelatin product of a gelatin product. I mean, you have no idea how bad the

food is. I lost like 10 pounds. It was like, and then they, they had these dieticians that

they were the one that was at the hospital. I've got another one that's better, but the one

that's from the hospital, she's, she might as well been from 1963. So old, old ideas, the old pyramids,

and really, you know, lots of carbs. Oh, you got more carbs. So, I mean, did you, what was the

typical dinner? They'd have something like a, like a chip, well, it's just an example,

something that was borderline, there wasn't even borderline edible, actually. It would be a piece

of chicken, a chicken thigh, uh, she was, you know, a funny belonging name, some gravy. The chicken

thigh was so overcooked that you could literally, you could, you, you could pick it up and you could,

you could pound a nail with it. It was unbelievable. All right. So did they have a potato product,

a starch product? They did have like mashed potatoes, uh, no salt. And so it was like taste,

listen, and the texture wasn't quite right. And then string beans, string beans? Yeah, always

some string beans, yep. And then, and then a gelatin product of unknown origin and manufactured

dates. Yeah. Wow. In a prepackaged thing that was obviously came off in assembly line.

Yeah. So is Jane now taking care of you? Are, is she feeding you? I mean, how, how,

what's the, what is, I can cook now? What's the situation? Are you in bed most of the day?

No, God no. Well, that's the last thing. That's why I had to get out of the hospital because

they keep you in bed all day. No, I got to be up. And so, uh, back to these meals, it was like,

you couldn't eat any of it. And then they, they examined the percentage of what you ate.

And it would go on your file. Oh, you only ate, you know, we can't eat any more than that.

And what did you say? It sucks. Yeah. And I complained bitterly the whole time. And everybody

agreed with me. And it was one nurse and PA, every million of these different titles coming up.

And that, well, yeah, we were just too bad we can't have food as edible. And one nurse comes in

and I'm bitching as usual about the food. And, and do one nurse is nodding at the other,

says, I think the food here is great. And I said, what? How can you say that? She said, I used to work

at the VA. Oh, you have no idea what bad food is. You're clueless. That's kind of sad. Have

you gotten any, have you received the bills yet? This is what everyone's waiting for. Oh, it's going

to be like a fortune. But nothing yet, right? We don't have any. They're late. What are they?

Why are they waiting? I have no idea. We'll find out soon enough. So, okay, if you don't mind me

just asking because people want to know we're all generally concerned for your health and people have

to understand it is amazing that you're even doing a podcast. Yeah. This, this quickly after your,

I mean, you're no letterman. No letterman went on stage. Yes. Well, now, are you going to make

the meetup on the 11th? No, probably not. Well, I'm going to try to make it. Oh, man.

You know, you know, you need, you need like Stephen Hawking. Remember when I met,

why didn't really meet him? But I had dinner in the same restaurant as Stephen Hawking.

Los Angeles, and he had these babes. Yeah, he apparently tracked you a lot of babes.

Super hot nurse babes. We can get you some hot nurse babes. Just for the meetup, you know,

just when the bill is too high already. No, but the meetup, I have a couple of hot nurses. Yeah,

yeah, a little elaborate. I did pull that stunt before something similar to that in a competition,

but a cooking competition in Vegas. I'm pretty sure that we can get a couple of our female

producers to dress up as, you know, hot nurses just for the photo op. That'd be good photo. Yeah,

you're not into it. Okay. I'm just trying to cheer you up over the hill for these sorts of, of,

of, uh, publicity stunts. Have you gotten any calls from any of your peers?

Like, I don't know, the lib Joe says anyone called the lib Joe is our clueless. They have no idea.

I mean, people I talk to a lot, they'll, we'll talk to each other and, um, has Leo

the port called. No, he hasn't even said anything about it. Oh, wow. He has to know. Oh,

you were on pod news. I was. Yeah. Yeah. You were on pod news. John C. DeVorek,

18 year co-host of the No Agenda podcast has had a double bypass. We wish him well.

Yeah, you're on pod news, man. You made the pod news. Well, it's about time I got some publicity.

Okay. So, but you're a, I'll bring these stories in and out. All right. Well, we just want to know,

it's like, do you, do you walk outside? Do you only walk in in the house? Well, when I'm outside,

because here's the problem. And this is a two month problem. It's a huge problem. Yeah.

You have limited use of your arms, but because if you start doing anything, it hurts. No,

it's not, it hurts. It, it, it's the, because as you're cut down the middle of your chest,

yeah, you have your, uh, that bone there, that's kind of stapled back together. They kind of,

with a hammer and nail, some, some gaffer tape. And it takes like two months before it's sealed

enough that you can take a chance on doing anything. And they, they, like, for example,

if you, they say, they tell you this, which makes it tough to walk around. So I, so,

the hospital gave me this rolling, this kind of rolling walker, which I use when I go outside,

because if you fall down, yeah, in this two month period, you're screwed.

It cracks this thing. And then the, and the word is, if you fall down, you don't have anybody

try to get you up, you call 911. Wow. Who needs that aggravation?

Yeah. So you're very careful about things when you're wandering around. And so when you're

outside, this rolling walker thing, which is got four wheels and, and handlebars, and you can

walk like a bat out of hell. Uh, you use it because you can't take a chance of stumbling or falling,

because the hell needs to start the process over. No, no, no, I didn't want to have to re-break

you. They have to cut you open again. I don't know what they do. I have no idea. I don't want to

find out. And does your walker have handbrakes? Yeah. Cool. And a little seat.

It's a cute, it's the cutest thing. But it's like, you can go, you can, you feel very confident

with it. But yeah. Okay. No, this is not a thing I would recommend anyone who want to go through.

But the thing is I, Mimi has a friend, Richard, who had a quadruple. And he called me up the other

day, ex-police guy from LA, who's a whistleblower. It made a couple million bucks, turning in some

mobsters. I don't know yet. Oh, he's in the witness protection program up in Washington state.

No, he's just hiding out. And so he had a quadruple and he told me, told me the whole thing,

everything that I'm doing now is exactly what happens. And you come at the other end when you've

done with the process, which is a good four months for the whole thing to blow over. And it's okay.

It's okay. If you feel better, then you did before. And there's a lot of benefits. Except,

you know, you know, and you got the scars you can show off. Yeah, meetups. Yeah, exactly.

Hey, look, no, wait a minute. We already discussed this. The first rule of group is you don't show

your scar. That's what the guy said. I told you, I'd mention that story of the guy that comes in.

Yeah. No, we all think. Yeah, I didn't do the kicker. Oh, what's the kicker? He lifts up his shirt

and shows me. I'm thinking you should go to one of these just for the experience. Go to group.

I just might. Yeah. How could it hurt? Well, you might be a couple of guys with great stories.

That's what I'm thinking. Like, here's what the babes like. There's got to be some kind of

contingency of women who just love. Oh, can you imagine? You know, it's like groupies, you know,

collectors. Yeah, I'm sure there is. To be honest about it. Far out. We just scar out, baby. Yeah.

All right. A couple more clips here before we take a break. I do have the the Artemis clip of

this is not the one you had. This is about the ever delayed moon launch. For the first time in more

than 50 years, NASA is about to launch four astronauts near the moon. Artemis, too, the more than

55 billion dollar investment is a 10 day mission. Its goal is to fly astronauts around the moon and

back, exploring the feasibility of building a lasting site on the moon for lunar exploration

and future missions to Mars. But this step in science comes with a cost and missed deadlines as

those interested in this mission are looking at it with a microscope. Will it be another delayed

expensive NASA failure? Or will this mission be one to impress? I mean, NASA does have a history.

You can look at a lot of our OIG reports where we are way over budget and substantially behind

schedule. NASA's administrator Jared Isaacson admitted to what we all know on Tuesday,

but added that at some point you have to, you know, course correct and get things back on track.

Back on track after a report from the government accountability office discovered last July that

the mission was already close to seven billion dollars over budget. We have to do some things

differently. I think you're seeing it in some of the public support. You're seeing it in, uh,

you know, the new authorization building. This is what it takes if we're going to get the job done

to go to the moon, do so before arrivals. Isaacson speaking on the mounting pressure of the

international space race, a big part of NASA's reputation and what's at stake for this upcoming

mission. Right now he says the agency's priority is developing technology to explore the moon.

But this sentiment is also a major focus point for those watching from the outside. People expressed

skepticism on NASA's focus on the moon as it seems to be distracting from building a replacement

international space station, something that's been deemed completely necessary by experts. NASA

announced this week that it will invest 20 billion dollars to build a base on the moon,

shelving plans to deploy a space station in lunar orbit. We're trying, we're trying to get back,

into a rhythm. We're being very transparent. The idea is to make the transition the right way

and we have to put everything out on the table. People will be watching closely to see how things

play out on the moon with Artemis to expect it to launch on April 1st. I just love that date. If

someone, if we were in charge of stuff, which will never be, and someone came in and said, okay,

hey bosses, curry to Vorak, we're going to launch this thing on April 1st. I think both you and I

would be like, no, you're not, right? You're going to choose a different date. Yeah, it would be too

stupid if you can't make it. Yeah, it's an embarrassment. Yeah, well, we'll have to see.

Maybe a good one for the predictive betting market. Yeah, how much longer is that thing going to

last? Well, they let this go. Well, since it's kind of paramutual, they don't lose money,

because it's like the bets come in from one side and then they change the odds,

come in from the other side, they change the odds, and then they take the money from the one's

side and give it to the other side and take a piece of the action in the middle and go on forever.

Right. That's why they're just calling it an exchange. Yeah, it's an exchange.

The greater, I mean, it should be illegal, period. Paramutual. Why should it be illegal?

It's encouraging people to gamble. Well, yeah, this is not healthy for the society.

Says the man who can barely talk. Yeah, well, it's not healthy for the society.

It's not out of society. Play this cash potato clip. Oh, yeah, this was a good story.

A classic. Where is cash? Here we go. Tonight's cyber warfare,

unleashed with an Iranian-league group hacking FBI director Cass Patel's personal email

and posting private messages involving Patel's family and photographs of him at a time before

he became director. As this war continues and as the regime is under tremendous pressure,

it wouldn't surprise me to hear that the Iranians are potentially trying to take things

to an even higher level than what they've done already. The hack and posting apparently in direct

retaliation to the Justice Department taking down several websites associated with the group known

as Handala earlier this month. Tonight, Handala bluntly describing why they targeted Patel, quote,

while the FBI proudly sees our domains, we decided to respond to this ridiculous show in a way

that will be remembered forever. The group claims to have emails, conversations, documents,

and even classified files. David, the FBI says the hacked material is historical in nature

and involves no government information. And the FBI says the US is offering a $10 million

reward for information about the Handala hackers. Yeah, this is a marketing of these

Handala hackers. This sounds like, I don't know. I mean, what is the point? It's an old Gmail,

isn't it? I don't know. Yeah, well, I have a clip and it includes our boy Brennan.

15 pass with the breaking news. Right. 15 pass with the breaking news.

Now reporting, I ran linked hackers are claiming they have breached the personal email inbox of

FBI Director Cash Patel. Breached. Those hackers have published photographs of Patel along with

his purported resume and what appears to be personal. I love the pictures. I've painted goofy pictures,

goofy stupid selfies. Of correspondence dating between 2010 and 2019. But MSL is not confirmed that

any of those documents are legitimate. And DOJ tells our Carol Enig, they do not know the

details of this apparent hack. Joining us now, former CIA Director and MSL Senior National Security

and Intelligence Analyst John Brennan. How concerning is this report? And we want to point out

the hack does not cover his time as FBI Director, but it does allegedly cover the time he worked

in national security and counterterrorism at DOJ. And depending on how far into 2019, possibly his

time on the National Security Council. Well, Alex, the Iranians have very, very sophisticated

cyber capabilities, both from a standpoint of collection as well as disruption. And I'm sure

that the war ongoing right now with Iran has led to an increase in their efforts in determination

to target a number of individuals with their cyber hacks and capabilities. So again, unsurprised

the Iranians are engaged in such activities. We've had to face it for the past 10 or 15 years

in terms of what the Iranians have been able to do. And given that the FBI Director is a high

profile target, it's again not surprising that the Iranians would do something like this. But

again, I have to underscore just how sophisticated the Iranians had become and their ability to do

things like this. It's not wrong about that. No, but Brennan's a dud. I mean,

is anyone watching Miz now? Do you have you seen any ratings? Does that thing work?

He can't be good. I don't think so either. They're going after, they're trying to buy

the Vox podcast network. Boohoo. That'll do it. Well, what I think is kind of fun about that

is we had Prof. G. Scott Galloway touting with with Karen's Karen, with her new name is Karen

Swisher. Karen Swisher. With Karen Swisher. No, no, we're going to sell this show. We're going to

we're going to, you know, they were in negotiations, I think, with Vox. I need to sell a show like that.

Well, they didn't. That was the whole point. He was like, this is hundreds, this is kind of

back a little bit after the Spotify days and Rogan, like, we're going to be 100 millionaires

from the show. He was showing charts. We could make a billion dollars on advertising and he hired

35 people for the Prof. G experience for all of his podcasts. And now they're getting wrapped up

in a sale to, gosh, who was it? Who was it that was going to buy this?

Really part of a network. Yeah, they're part of the Vox media network.

Oh, I did not know that. Yeah, yeah, yeah, let me see. It was, I'm sure you're going to get

nothing. No, of course not. My podcast. And how can you even sell it? We know what a podcast

network is worth is nothing. So, okay. So Vox media, oh, this is it. Yeah. So Vox media initially

they had said, okay, we're we're putting it up for sale. And then they said, no, no, no, we're

not selling anything. But then Versus comes along. Do you know what? Do you remember Versus?

Yep. That's the, that's the spin, spin off company.

Right. That includes MS now and CNBC. And they want their, the Versus to say, we want to have

at least 40% non-traditional content within the next two years that they're going to buy.

That's a dud. You can't you can't make money off of a podcast network. Spotify put a billion

dollars into it and failed. You know, who they didn't call us just for advice. Yeah, the

creative life consulting group. Yeah, we, you never get called for anything. I never get called

for anything. We're outliers with experience and good judgment. But, but we're handsome.

We're quiet. Yes. And it nobody cares. Nobody cares. Well, those who are last will be first.

The least will get the most. That is what I've always understood. And with that, I want to thank

you for your courage. Say in the morning to you, the man who put the sea and cut down the middle.

Say hello to my friend on the other end. He's still alive, Mr. John.

Well, in the morning, Mr. Adam Curry also had been in the morning all chips and sea boots

and the grandfee near subs in the water and all the dams and nights out there in the morning

to the trolls. There we go. There we go. That's better. 1806 today at the peak of our

trollage, which is much better for a Sunday people. People. I think people thought you were dead.

And like, well, we're going to give up who wants to hear Curry. You know, give a watch. Give a

graph about Curry. Always back. Okay. Well, it might as well tune in again.

Well, you're getting a product, which we find to be a quite outstanding product from

people who are not swayed by popular opinion or not captured by an audience who tells them

that you better, you better be criticized and people more. We've identified this. We had to

another guy. He says the one you you're talking about something, you know, you're not critical

enough. He should just be grousing about everything. Well, I mean, you don't think I grouse enough.

Okay. No, but you have to be more of an activist. That's what he said.

And the other one is activism. Activism. Yeah. Activist. You got to be more

activist. Let's push some of some, you know, people don't realize we don't have an agenda

in regards to pushing these things. We're not pushing. We don't push anything.

But here's what here's the problem. And it's for some reason, always focuses on me,

which I don't maybe it's the right thing. I can't spell my name. Well, no, but when we analyze

something that President Trump does, then we're licking his ass because we say, well,

he think he's right. Oh, you what? You're not critical. You're all in. How many

shuckles did you get for that? You know, so when we're not, because we just don't agree

with the narrative and there's pushback coming on all these podcasters, people are getting tired

of it. They're tired of it. They want, they want, they want just the, just an actual opinion

from somebody and not, ah, yeah, I bought it and be going your podcast.

You know, even, I guess even Joe Rogan's kind of falling for it now.

A little bit. Yeah. No, I mean, he's, but he doesn't go on everybody's podcast. No, no, no.

No, no. These, these, these Mary go around podcasts. You go on mine, I go on yours,

you're on his and then he goes on mine and I go on yours and you're around, around, around,

they go. Yeah. Uh, where they stop. Yeah. Nobody knows. We're not part of any of these clicks.

No, we're not, that's, oh, man, I should have clipped that Reverend Franklin Graham said, podcasts

are a problem. I got to get that clip. He was complaining about the podcast. He's very

free too. Oh, the podcasts that are saying that that Israel is bad and the Jews are to blame for

everything. Oh, yeah, they do. Yeah. Well, exactly. Yeah. And, you know, now Tucker is, he's,

he's got a documentary and I've got BB Netanyahu and his wife and they're horrible in the corrupt,

which is probably true. But who cares? Like, okay, maybe 15 minutes of discussion. Yeah,

who cares? Who cares? Anyway, um, yeah, the trolls are listening at knowledge industry

dream.com. And that's, I will say, and I've actually talked with, you know, Dave Jones, my,

my buddy, who is the, what this nicest calmest guy, the calm, the pod sage. And we do the,

like a board meeting every Friday, we talk about podcasting 2.0 and, you know, we have developers

on the audience is like 500 people is, it's, it's not meant for any other consumption outside of

what we're doing. And out of that group comes, you know, new features like transcripts and

chapters and all this stuff that you're seeing now, the big boys are implementing, which is the

whole, that was the whole point podcasting had stagnated for a decade weekend, but we started,

it was started up and things are working. Okay, so great. And even he is getting snark.

People just, and it's, it's older millennials, maybe some gen X, there's something going on. And,

and people feel like they can just lash out and, and say whatever they want to a podcaster.

You haven't noticed this because no one knows where to find you. You're in hiding. But,

it, there's something going, there's something in the air where people just, they just want to say,

you suck. You know, and yeah, people want to say, you suck. That's pretty much it. You suck. Yeah.

So the troll room, there's a lot of that, but actually today is not been too bad. Now,

they are trolls. So it's to be expected here, obviously. No, it's under stream.com. And,

of course, we have the modern podcast apps just talking about it. One of the great features they

have is live, live podcasts. When you go live and you're recording live, the podcast app that you

use to listen to your, your podcasts whenever, whenever you feel like it will give you an alert.

So if you want to, you can join in live and listen to it. And these things also have pod,

pod ping technology. So within 90 seconds of updating the podcast and releasing it, you'll get

notified. We are a value for value podcast. And that means that there's no subscriptions.

There's no advertising. There's no paywall. No, we give you everything upfront and center.

What you see is what you get. And if you get value out of it, then we would like to hear back

from you. And you can do that with your time, your talent, or your treasure. And one of the ways

people help us is by its production. Because everyone who listens to the show is, by definition,

a producer. So let me take a look here. We had episode 1854. Rackout was the title of that.

You really had, oh, we use the, the art, which was kind of cool by Ness works. And he had a gas pump,

premium podcast only. Man, it doesn't happen often that you get a lot of email about one topic

that you don't expect. Premium versus regular was the one. Did you get emails about this?

I also have a mechalpa. Oh, well, let me explain first. We were talking about the difference between

premium and regular. So high octane, lower octane. And I asked, I said, well, is this a scam?

Am I just paying for this stuff when they don't have to? And a lot of people said,

oh, yeah, you're crazy. If you, unless you have a high and high compression automobile,

there's no need for it. That was that I'm generalizing, but that's kind of what I got back. And

of course, the tip of the day was always fill up your rental car with the lowest octane possible

when you return it. That, that to me was the tip of the day. Like, ah, obviously, that's what we

got to do there. Well, a couple of things. I'll defend the petroleum industry and say,

these things are all based on knock engines in your engine. If you want to use lower grade fuel

and let your engine knock once in a while, okay, good for you. It's going to hurt and damage the

engine over time. But I use premium fuel because I drive a Lexus. Old one, 20-year-old,

but still. The second thing is, this was my fault. I talked about the low sulfur diesel

and I kind of conflated it with the stupid blend that we have in California for gasoline,

which is special to California. And I said, it's going to take over the whole country, blah, blah, blah.

No, it's a federal low sulfur diesel. That's one of the producers pointed out. It's

the diesels that diesel everywhere and it's really expensive. So that can be changed at a federal

level. How come President Trump doesn't change this? What's he going to do? Just tell him to stop the,

get, let the sulfur free. No, I think they've, you know, they've gotten used to this blend. It's

better. The high sulfur diesels make a mess. That's probably a better product. Well, we got the farm

diesel here. All the good old boys, they put that farm diesel in their pickup trucks and they roll

coal along the road. You can always tell. You got farm diesel. So thanks to Nest Works,

we're bringing us that artwork. There were a couple other things that we looked at.

I think we can kind of move past the hospital art. I think John is no longer in the hospital.

You kind of liked Dan OB-GYN for slot machine. Yeah, I did. I think it's an evergreen. I might

use it. Possible evergreen. Scaramanga's homemade missile on the surfboard was kind of cute.

A lot of ship stuff. So I think Nest Works kind of nailed it. Premium podcast only. It was good.

You actually liked it a lot because you felt that it was not a big AI effort.

Well, the Nest Works is not necessarily an AI effort type of guy. So yeah, I did like that.

I thought that was good. So we thank you for your courage, Nest Works. We thank everybody who

participates in our generator.com. So it is time, talent and treasure. Again, the idea is you

get value out of the show. You like the analysis. You thought it was worthwhile. You'd like it to

continue. You've got one man on his deathbed. He's dialing in from his deathbed. You might that

might be valuable to you to have your show. All you have to do is send that value back to us.

And we can't determine what that is. That's up to you. We don't know what value what is valuable

to you. So you go to knowagendadonations.com and you send us some value.

Now, we're going to thank everybody $50 and above in one segment. And we start with our

executive and associate executive producers. These are people who get an extra benefit

because they are able to support us with $200 or more. And that means not only do we read your note

guaranteed, but we also give you an associate executive producer credit, which is good anywhere.

Hollywood credits are recognized. And it's a real one because you did exactly what executive

and associate executive producers do, which is help finance the product. $300 or above. And

it's the same deal only then you become an executive producer. And both of these can be used

at IMDB.com. Are we going to do this night of the heart order? What do you do there?

Yeah, I got Paul Kuturs working on the art for a pin, a special pin that you put on your lapel.

Yeah, it's going to be, yeah, it's going to be the red night. And we're going to roll it out of

my birthday. It's the order of the red night.

It's it. No, you are a red night. The order of the red, of the order of the heart or the red heart.

Okay. And and wait a minute, your birthday is one. Isn't that coming up soon like next week?

Yeah, like the fifth, the fifth of April. Oh my gosh. Oh my gosh. Oh my gosh.

He said, I don't know what happened there. Well, coming in isn't either. Sorry about that.

Coming in as our top executive producer for today, saving the entire show. Yes. Yes,

it was a very poor show in the day, except for a couple of checks that came in. Well,

Dame Catherine, she is the crypto granny of Bangkok, came in with a in in Bitcoin,

a whopping $5,000. And she says, John, thank you for not dying. We need you. I think you got to

pull this gambit more often. What can you do next? Like I don't think I read.

Believe me, it's not worth the trouble.

Kid stones to something. Adam, you're a rock. You kept your head about you. And

one, let me expand this and soldier Don Bravo. Mimi, thank you for filling in during John's

medical adventure. Hope this helps with the medical bills. It will. I'm grateful to be a

hotler since the early days. I must give thanks to Max Kaiser to the moon. And she ends up by

saying being rich is having enough to share with others. She is Dame Catherine, the crypto granny

of Bangkok. And we thank you so much, Dame Catherine. That was never happened to Max Kaiser.

Well, they're all living in El Salvador now. But really, you know, who else is moving to El Salvador?

Texas Slim. He is now, he is a fish by presidential appointment in charge of

all beef agriculture of El Salvador. Wow. I had an El Salvadorian that I met with

in the hospital. He was just one of the guys who they called transport. They drag you around

and you keep you in your bed and they roll you all over the place. And I had a long chat with him.

He says, he says El Salvador has become the greatest place ever when he was a kid. Yeah.

That you couldn't go outside that shoot you. Yeah, you got rusted or kills. I know. Well,

that's the, that's bouquet. And he says that the guy that's president, the guy's running it.

He doesn't need any money. He's loaded. And you know, it's not, there's no way it's going corrupt.

That's bouquet. He says is a terrific place. Yeah. Ain't ain't what they did. They made Bitcoin

the money of the country currency. Yeah, it's the currency. And a lot of people have moved

there. Max and Stacey are there. I'm pretty much full time now. I think it's only what,

two and a half hour flight from Texas. I'm going to go visit when Slim is there. Oh, yeah.

So he's in charge. He's going to, I think he has a press conference with the president,

Bukali on the 14th of April. And yeah, he's always going to do everything from the regenerative

farming to the processing. And he has beef.com. Somehow we got beef.com. Little little little Texas

Slim. Man, he's doing good. I'm so, so happy for him. He says, Adam, I'm beat is Jimmy Dean of

beef. And I don't doubt him. So that's what's going on in El Salvador. Well, thanks to Dame

Catherine, Matthew lambs up. He's in Johnson City, Tennessee, 500 bucks. This, I believe,

it's just a check that showed up in an envelope with no, no, no, nothing made no sense. But

I'm sure if he wants to communicate, he will. But he'll get a double up karma in the meantime.

You've got karma. All right, then we have a valuable account indeed.

This is a great name from Plains, Pennsylvania, $500 with a handwritten note looks like

some paper from a high school notebook. Dear John Adam plus Mimi, my cousin also named John

also had a hard attack this week. Sadly, he passed away leaving behind his wife, children,

and one grandchild. He was a great guy and will be missed. Please count your blessings, John.

Get way, get well, stay healthy. And four more years, sincerely, a valuable account,

accountant indeed, not account accountant indeed. And he breaks it down, $3333,

value for value, a boob donation for Mimi. She's a lovely woman and a 808 boob for John,

a reason to live. And $6.51 for JC covering DH unplugged. He's great. Plus prayers for Adam

and Pastor Jimmy, a wonderful show they do. There are three types of accountants, the kind that you

can count on and the kind that can't that can't get it. Yeah, I get it. The kind that can count

and the kind that can't. There you go. Well, this is a valuable account indeed. And we thank you

very much for your support of the show. The joke was there's three types. I know, but there's no

third. Then you get it. Yeah. Okay, Ron Camacho, Comcho, Ron Comcho, Comcho, sugar,

island, Texas, three, three, three, three, three, four. Most want to thank John or thank you, John,

for not dying. You're welcome. I started listening in March to 2026. Recent listener, huh?

First time donor, I need a deductions. You've been deduced. My spicewood, Texas daughter,

turn me on to you guys. Thank you for your enlightenment. It's appreciated. I apologize for

not donating sooner. I leave with this in the spirit of Texas. Yes. And in the words of Sam

Houston, Texas will again lift its head and stand among the nations. It ought to do so for no

country upon the globe can compare with it in a natural advantages. God bless you to know

agenda show. And God bless Texas. Amen. That's right. One of those guys. Yeah. Well, there's a lot

of them here. And I'm one of them calling Western house in Cherubusco, Indiana. I think it's

Cherubusco. Someone gave me crap me on my sister-in-law. Give me crap the other day because I said

Portage, Indiana. She called me up says, it's portage. We're Midwesterners. Stop with the

French stuff. So I don't know if you pronounce this Cherubusco or Cherubusco, but it's in Indiana.

Rovedux222.22, no note that I could find from colleagues that will give you a double up karma.

You've got karma.

Christopher Graves in Somerset, California.

No, we know Christopher Christopher through a 329. This is a note. So thank you to Eli, the coffee guy

when Eli reached out and asked if little Johns could make chocolate with coffee. By the way,

we got some of these things. You got some already? I haven't received any. I think so because

Jay's talking about you eat one and you go to the moon. I got to get to the P.O. box.

Make chocolate with coffee. I jumped into the chance to co-brand with another like my

did business owner, getting the chance to collab, collab with two of my favorite things,

chocolate and coffee, and then promote it to the best podcast in the universe as an honor.

Yes. Thank you, Eli, for making a better, me a better businessman and a better candy maker.

Connection is protection. Try our limited edition chocolate bars at little johnscoffee.com

or gigabyte coffee roasters.com 203 29. Yeah, it's a little johnscandys.com.

What did I say? You said little johns coffee.

That's what a co-label do to you. No, that's from the drugs. What drugs are you on?

Nothing. What? Nothing for pain? No, I don't have any pain. I have aches and I have

sore back and neck and things like that. But I don't, I never, and I asked about this,

by the way, not to go on about these ailments, but because they come into, everyone's come in,

well, we're going to do this and that and then somebody else comes in, we're going to do this

and that. And then they always say, do you have, do you have any pain? Oh, and I said, no.

Is there a little chart with where on this chart is your pain level at?

I said, no, so you got pain from what was zero to 10. I don't have any pain.

This went on and on and on. And so one, so somebody comes in once and I said, okay,

I don't have any pain, but why are they what, you know, I can't seem to make it clear.

And so what is the pain that people have? Because after, you know, you have your while,

you wonder what the hell's this horrible pain because they keep asking. And I guess,

one of the doctors described, it feels like you're being stabbed.

Wow, I'm glad I don't have that. Well, at least there's one thing I avoided.

You're doing so well. Two over two hours and your energy went up. It's amazing.

Yeah, well, hey, we've got Grant's long car in Breida in the Netherlands, $200.88. That's a

give John a reason to live donation. And he has a note with this associate executive producer

ship, John, John and Adam, ITM. I've been listening since COVID and have never missed a show since.

Thank you for bringing sanity in the world of news and media. This donation of $200.88

is a shout out to my brother, Humts, who was moved from the Netherlands to Phoenix, Arizona,

did that a while ago. He's a mechanical engineer, independent product developer,

who's a total beast at 3D and CAD design. And he's looking to get more clients in the US.

He is fully authorized to work in the US. He's got a green card and he's ready to take on your 3D

design needs for mechanical engineering. You can look him up on smartinoventions.com that smart

inoventions.com that smartinoventions.com or contact him info at cad-downloads.com.

Kindly play the jingle for him. Jobs, jobs, jobs. We vote for jobs.

Keep up the great work. And thank you for your attention to this matter says,

get the long car from Bradie in the Netherlands. Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs. Let's vote for jobs.

And there's Linda Lupatkin, Castle Rock, Colorado, 200 bucks. Jobs, karma, your resume

has about 10 seconds to make an impression. And most don't.

Bobo Boom.

Nice nice one. Linda helps professionals and executives

turn their experience into a clear story of leadership results and impact. That's image-makers

Inc. with the K and Linda Lou Duchess of jobs and writer of winning resumes best Linda

jobs jobs jobs and jobs. Let's vote for jobs by the way when when you're back at home base

I don't know it's gonna take a couple months whenever you get to go back on you must be

ready to go back home already. I know you feel like I want to be yesterday. Yeah. What's

it like living with your kid? Well, you know Brennan is a chatty guy so it's fun to talk

with these with him. Yeah. And just good to work with Jay and it's interesting. I gotta

tell you Jay. I think it's annoying to them. I can't. No, she first of all she loves you

so much. I try to slow her down like easy does it. He'll disappoint you somewhere along

the way. Just don't. But she is a she's a rock star. She really is. She didn't skip

a beat. You know, maybe she maybe she didn't care. Oh, the whole guys and then I got

to live in my house. But she is so good. She just keeps on. She could she ever done a

podcast. She doesn't enunciate. Oh, I just remember her when she was 14 or 15. That's

the last time I saw her. Now she's all grown up and married and and doing stuff. She's

cool. Everybody loves Jay. Yes. So we could do the rest of these because this is the shortest

list we've ever had. Yeah, I'm going to I'm going to go right through it. I'll do a

model. Wait, let me stop you. This is the shortest list of donations. We've ever had a

total count with the with the cryptocurrency, all the rest thrown in of 19 people. Now

is it that bad? Part of this is the newsletter is a is has to be redeveloped because it's

just not getting to anybody. It's you mean they're not actually receiving it or it's

not it doesn't have impact. They're not receiving it. They're not receiving it. Oh, what changed

besides you almost dying? No, this changed about six to nine months ago. And I noticed

it then. And I have I was slow to act. Yeah. Now I'm slower. So it's going to be a nightmare

to get this thing back. Well, void zero is ready to help. I mean, I know I want to talk

to them. Okay. Well, talk to him. Talk to your friend. He has ideas. He if anyone

knows email, it's void zero. No, he's he's he's a borderline genius. He is except when

he's like Wednesday afternoon, I'm doing show prep. He's like, I'm just upgrading the

mail server. Yeah. That would be him. I need some email to do my prep. Now he is not

to Baron. Dear Adam, on show 1839, you credited to Chris Moore instead of certain Nubanus

we are correcting that today, sir. Michael Biscaygly. Biscaygly. Biscaygly. He's from

and boobs. Lane Lamuro. $55 from the middle of Mesopotamia. Rockets, drones and missiles.

Oh, my proving not all Americans have gone bonkers from a university and Baghdad. Thanks

these guys, but I'll just take it as it's their birthday. So happy birthday from everybody

here at the best podcast in the universe.

I'm very sorry, Sir Nuban. I'm not sure exactly when went wrong, but there was no

malice intended. So today you receive your long overdue and deserved title change. You

now become a Baron. And we thank you for your courage and for your support at the best

podcast in the universe. So we do have one night. It is a layaway night. And I believe

I have a note here. Uh, this is from a Jackson Pollock. And he will become Sir Exiled

Maniac. He says John Adam Marches donation of 30. Oh, this is a long time layaway. 3333

should leave me a penny short of nighthood. So if you can spare a penny, I don't do

it. Have my pennies. I ever since I went to Linux, I think I lost my pennies. Hmm.

You know, the Linux machine sucked up the pennies. Do I have it? No, I'm going to have

to look for. I owe you. Yeah, it'll be I owe you is right. There you go. I think the

ROI will be worth it. I've also sent an additional 3333 this month in order sponsor a douchebag

save a podcaster. I hope this concept catches on. JC, these life and the show may depend

on it. Please night me Sir Exiled Maniac Kennelmaster of the Dutch shepherds and Belgian

Malinois, Malinois. Malinois. You know, who has Malinois? Laura Logan. She got five

of them. I had one. Yeah, but these, these are the ones that bit Luke coffee and he had

to get plastic surgery on his face. That's not good. No, she has five of them and they

get out all the time and they're on the street roaming around like they are killers.

They can. I had one. It was gentle. Yeah, but this dog. Nothing could contain him. He

would get his escape. He was an escape artist. You know, one time we dropped him off at a

Kennel. Then we said this dog will escape and don't worry about it. We got to secure

facilities and so there we see the guy the next time and he says, so I locked the dog

up and I'm walking down the hall. I hear something clicking behind me. The dog is walking

right behind me. They are escape artists. Let me say that was actually pretty fun. Let

me save that one. So I need to read some of this note. I don't know if you saw, if you

saw this note, but this is a hilarious note. Okay. So I've been having this recurring dream

and starting to think it may have something to do with the best podcast in the universe.

It goes something like this. Since the pandemic, I've been down on my luck and financially

strapped. So he started directing gay porn movies out of my house, unbeknownst to my wife

while she's at work. I'm working with my associate executive producer Dana Bernetti and

our biggest star Eli the coffee guy. We are discussing the next scene, which involves

little John's candied beads and a gigawatt coffee. And I'm a followed up with good old

fashion, La Jolla salt rub and tug. Suddenly the front door flies open to my wife, Linda

Lou, Duchess of Jobs and writer of winning resumes unexpectedly comes home and cries out

and horror. Mr. Timothy, what in the world? What have you been shopping at bad ideas supply

again? Then she starts yakking at me something about if I don't change my wicked ways, find

Jesus and go to imagemakersink.com. That's image makers ink with a K. She's always repeating

herself and get myself a winning resume that gets results. And there's no doubt in

her mind that I would end up working at Martell Hardware for the rest of my life. About

this time at alarm clock goes off and from the radio, I hear the spooky voice of a washed

up VJ and claim, exclaiming in the morning, followed by his geriatric handler sidekick bitching

in the morning for three hours about low donations. What can all of this madness mean?

When will this sigh up? And four more years is what my conspiracy therapist keeps telling

me, but he says it may end a whole lot sooner or less. All the douchebags in the universe

donated at least once no matter the amount, although 3333 is the magic number. Ball is

in your court douchebags. Stay safe and donate. That's a Jackson Pollock plus no agenda

is a Picasso. And that means that we need to ignite this guy. So if you can grab that

little tiny part right here, that's beautiful. So Jason, come on up here. He has the Exile

maniac and you now officially will become Sir Exile maniac, Kennelmaster of the Dutch

Shepherds and Belgian Malanois. And for you, we have, as always, hookers and blow,

you're the leader that you do. It's like a party. All right, I got a slime for some

isos here. You have two. I see you got two isos. All right, I'll play mine first and we'll see

how we do. In the morning, a very good show hosted by very good people. That apparently was real.

Although that, well, maybe I'm wrong. I thought it came from the Sean Hannity show,

but I could be wrong. In the morning, a very good show hosted by very good people.

But I think it's AI. Here's another one. As always, fascinating.

All right. Okay. All right, I get two. Yes.

See you. See you. Catch you later. Take it easy.

Okay, not bad. Impressive. That's impressive.

I think I like see you the best. I kind of see you later. Take it easy.

I think we should leave it with. See you. Okay. All right. We'll do that. Hey, everybody,

before we go anywhere, it is time for John's tip of the day.

Well, not being out and about. And then the last tip we picked. I've decided

what obvious things should people have that would be a tip of the day.

And I got another one. Okay. It's not on the list. I don't know why we haven't picked it before,

but everybody should have one of these. A carbon monoxide monitor. Oh, yes. I actually have one.

You have one? Yes, for when I fly. I haven't used it in a while, but yes, I have one for in the

cockpit. Well, there's a lot of them. There are tons of them out there. They're about

to all recommend is the first alert, which is 23 bucks. And then there's the kitty, kitty,

k-i-d-d-e 27 bucks. These are brands that are known. And they're not expensive and they're

valuable protection that everyone should have, especially in and around the kitchen. If you have

gas appliances, now are these just simple ones that beep or make a noise or can you get them

that connect to an app? So your app will alert you? No, but there's plenty that do and you can look

for those. In the, in planes, we have a very cheap one, which is a little disc and the disc

changes color. And then you know that there's a lot of carbon monoxide. Yeah, I'd rather have

something beeping at me. Yeah. And, uh, excuse me, I've had them go off like false positive.

And here's what the pilots do. How do you feel? You feel okay? Yeah. Do you feel funny? No,

I feel good. All right. Feel good. You sure? Okay. All right. Feel good. All right.

That's your check. Because if you feel funny, then yeah, I'm like, yeah, I mean,

we should feel fine if you're in trouble. Open the window. I'm like that. There it is,

everybody. If you want to find more of these tips, and they go to knowagentafund.com,

tipoftheday.net.

Green flies for you and me. Just a tip with JCD. And sometimes I don't.

Created by Dana Bernetti. There it is. Dana Bernetti. Known for the gay porn, apparently,

you know, in only a few. I could give you a grief for that. Well, hey, he needs to do some kind

of project. Boys will be in somebody's dreams. End of show mixes. MVP is back on. And Molly

Barry comes in. Molly Barry did the order of the heart. End of show mix. Yep. I am your

sloperator, playing those tunes for you. You know, these mixes today are pretty good.

They are, well, they have good lyrics. People are figuring out how to, you know, use good lyrics.

And then it's, it's not as offensive that it's AI. But, you know,

according to Rick Bito, we'll all be making him ourselves on our macmeonies at home.

And for more media deconstruction and more on the war, we'll be back on Thursday.

And we hope you will join us. Coming to you from the heart of the Texas Hill Country right here

in Fredericksburg, Texas, where we love the Comanches. In the morning, everybody, I'm Adam Curry.

Cold night in the bar, full of the chest.

So creeped in like a second death. And on my heart felt the spark ignite.

In the dark I was marked by the red night. In the grip of death.

Couldn't feel my veins. But if I came back when I spoke his name.

The other night that I'm giving. The order of the heart begins.

No gender to stay alive. Through the dark we learn to fight.

Out of the black, black, black. Into the light.

I ride with the flame. Mother, red night.

I, I, I, I feel left. No compromise.

I saw the edge. And I chose to rise. Pulled my breath back from the edge.

Took my life back from the very edge.

We have a night that won't give a name.

Order of the heart begins in the morning. I'm still alive.

I survived the grip of the night. Out of the dark, dark, dark.

Into the light. With the red night. I survive.

The best podcast ever universe.
