## About this episode

Attorney General William Barr and the release of the Mueller Report triggered a massive media pivot from collusion allegations to obstruction of justice claims. Adam Curry and John C. Dvorak analyze the shifting narratives at MSNBC and CNN as news outlets grapple with the lack of a conspiracy finding. The fallout from the Notre Dame fire also takes center stage, with skepticism mounting over official reports of a computer glitch and the subsequent billion-dollar donation spree by French elites.

Dr. Steve Pieczenik characterizes the Notre Dame blaze as a false flag operation designed to rescue President Emmanuel Macron from the Yellow Vest protests. Meanwhile, Fox News anchors Shepard Smith and Neil Cavuto are observed shutting down guests who suggest arson, hinting at a network-wide directive against conjecture. The episode also tracks the United Conservative Party victory in Alberta as a rejection of carbon taxes, the rise of Modern Monetary Theory via Stephanie Kelton, and Greta Thunberg's apocalyptic address to the European Parliament. Additional reports cover the Sol Pais manhunt in Colorado and the media's coordinated push for MMR vaccine boosters.

Michelle Obama draws fire for her divorced dad analogy during an appearance with Stephen Colbert, while Alex Jones makes a chaotic guest appearance on Logan Paul's podcast. Adam Curry prepares for a studio relocation, sharing a final look at the Cluedio space before moving his operations. The show concludes with a 23-year-old Nancy Pelosi clip that proves political rhetoric remains unchanged across decades.

### 6. Notre Dame Fire Investigation and Computer Glitch Claims (28:46–36:02)

Official reports suggest a short circuit or renovation accident caused the Notre Dame fire, but the hosts express skepticism over claims of a "computer glitch." They discuss the 90-minute delay before heavy firefighting equipment arrived and the testimony of a former security official regarding the building's sophisticated fire alert system. The presence of orange and green smoke is noted as a potential indicator of burning copper rather than just oak beams.

A host recounts a claustrophobic experience climbing the narrow stone stairways to the roof of Notre Dame. The story describes the physical difficulty of the ascent and the lack of activities available once reaching the top. The anecdote serves as a pragmatic take on the cathedral as a tourist attraction rather than just a religious symbol.

### 10. Symbolism of the Notre Dame Fire and European Secularism (45:24–49:58)

The discussion turns to whether the fire symbolizes the end of Christianity in Europe, with the hosts noting that many European churches have already been repurposed for secular use. They argue that while the building is a historic artifact, the religion itself remains independent of the structure. They also dismiss the theory of a "casually discarded cigarette" starting a fire in heavy oak beams.

The hosts critique an explanation of Modern Monetary Theory (MMT) by Professor Stephanie Kelton, an advisor to Bernie Sanders.

A 2014 clip of an FBI representative is played to support the theory that the agency operates on a "six-week cycle" of high-profile busts to maintain public fear.

### 25. Title Changes and Gimlet Media Studios (2:24:34–2:29:01)

The hosts discuss the high-end studio builds at Gimlet Media, noting the use of expensive Neumann microphones to achieve an "NPR-like vibe." They contrast this corporate, "radio-style" approach to podcasting with the "honest" and minimalist aesthetic of the No Agenda Cluedio.

### 29. Pete Buttigieg's Name and Fundraising Audition (2:46:00–2:55:21)

The hosts discuss the rise of Pete Buttigieg, noting a Jimmy Kimmel segment on the pronunciation of his name. They argue that the media's obsession with his fundraising totals is actually an "audition" for ad sales, as networks prioritize candidates whose supporters have high disposable income. The show concludes with a montage of "at the end of the day" verbal crutches.
