## About this episode

Anthony Fauci appeared on 60 Minutes to advise the American public against wearing masks, warning that improper use leads to frequent face-touching and that supplies must be reserved for healthcare workers. This stance coincides with the launch of nomasks.org, a repository for the director's previous statements as the City of Austin attempts to enforce local ordinances that have been overruled by the State of Texas. Meanwhile, Governor Tom Wolf has extended Pennsylvania’s stay-at-home order until June, despite data showing the majority of fatalities occurred in nursing homes while hospital wards remain largely empty.

House Resolution 6666, the TRACE Act, proposes $100 billion for mobile health units to conduct diagnostic testing at private residences, while Dr. Robert Levin of Ventura County announced a pilot program to move COVID-19 patients into government-provided housing. In the UK, Neil Ferguson resigned from his advisory role after breaking lockdown rules to meet a mistress, casting further doubt on his Imperial College model which critics claim relied on thirteen-year-old undocumented code. Mark Cuban faced backlash for deploying secret shoppers to Dallas restaurants to monitor compliance, and Bill Gates told media outlets that global normalcy is impossible until the entire population receives a vaccine. Whistleblower Dr. Rick Bright testified on 60 Minutes regarding his removal from BARDA, alleging retaliation for his skepticism of hydroxychloroquine and early warnings about N95 mask shortages.

This episode features a critique of the "Trump Death Clock" in Times Square and a musical parody titled I Ain't Gonna Work on Fauci's Farm No More. The hosts celebrate Mother’s Day with a wave of peerage upgrades, including the elevation of Sir Kevin Dills to the Earl of North Carolina, while acknowledging a talking cat’s analysis of 2017 pandemic predictions.

### 1. Dr. Anthony Fauci, Mask Efficacy and nomasks.org Resource (0:00–3:10)

Anthony Fauci appeared on 60 Minutes stating that the general public in the United States should not be walking around with masks during the outbreak. He noted that masks are primarily for healthcare providers and the ill, warning that improper use leads to people touching their faces. A new resource, nomasks.org, has been established to host this video and audio clip as a reference for those opposing mask mandates.

### 2. Austin Mask Ordinance, Texas State Overrule and Political Delineation (3:11–4:50)

The City of Austin has implemented a mask ordinance that is described as illegal due to being overruled by the State of Texas. Observations suggest a political divide in mask-wearing, with Democrats more likely to comply and Republicans resisting. Public sentiment is shifting toward a desire to end stay-at-home orders and return to work.

### 3. Pennsylvania Lockdown Extension, Hospital Furloughs and Empty Wards (4:51–6:25)

Governor Tom Wolf extended the Pennsylvania stay-at-home order until June 4th despite data showing the majority of deaths occurred in nursing homes rather than hospitals. Hospitals in the United States and the UK's National Health Service (NHS) are reportedly empty and losing billions due to the cancellation of elective surgeries. Reports indicate patients, such as stroke victims, are being isolated in empty wards without family access.

### 4. Truthstream Media, Cult Initiation Rituals and Mask Symbolism (6:27–9:30)

Truthstream Media produced a video comparing current COVID-19 mandates to traditional cult initiation rituals. The analysis suggests that the wearing of masks serves as a psychological tool for the suppression of ego and the death of old identity to facilitate a new one. This ritualistic masking is framed as a method to transcend the self and move initiates toward a specific spiritual or social realm.

### 15. Neil Ferguson, Imperial College Model and Code Flaws (37:19–40:33)

The epidemiological model produced by Neil Ferguson at Imperial College, which predicted 500,000 deaths in the UK and 2 million in the US, has come under scrutiny for using 13-year-old undocumented code. Independent reviews suggest the model produces inconsistent results based on hardware and configuration dependencies. Critics compare the reliance on these "mediocre models" to the modeling used in global warming projections.

### 16. CDC Death Toll Inflation, Obesity Statistics and Funding (40:33–42:56)

The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) has a history of inflating death statistics to secure government funding, as highlighted in the documentary Super Size Me. Former CDC head Julie Gerberding previously issued warnings about obesity deaths that were later found to be exaggerated by mathematical errors. Internal conflicts between "flu people" and anti-tobacco groups often drive these methodological discrepancies in public health reporting.

### 17. Flu Shot Inquiries, Medical Databases and Gratuitous Questions (42:56–45:01)

A host recounted a medical visit where the first question asked was about the date of their last flu shot. The inquiry was described as "gratuitous," as the doctor did not provide a lecture or recommendation after the host replied "never." This data collection is framed as a bureaucratic requirement to fill checkmarks in a database rather than a genuine health concern.

### 18. Lockdown Efficacy, State Death Rates and New York Home Infections (45:01–48:10)

Statistical charts comparing all 50 U.S. states suggest there is no significant difference in death rates between states that locked down and those that did not. Governor Andrew Cuomo expressed shock at data showing 66% of new COVID-19 cases in New York occurred among people who were staying at home. Media commentators have struggled to reconcile this data with the narrative that social distancing is the primary driver of safety.

### 20. UK Lockdown Easing, Garden Centers and "Curtain Wranglers" (50:45–53:03)

The UK government is beginning a minor easing of restrictions by allowing garden centers to reopen. Despite the lockdown, many citizens were observed in parks over the VE Day bank holiday weekend, leading to nearly 9,000 police fines. Reports from the NHS indicate a rise in "curtain wranglers," or citizens who act as informants by reporting their neighbors for lockdown violations.

### 21. Mark Cuban, Dallas Restaurant Narcs and Secret Shoppers (53:03–54:44)

Mark Cuban has been criticized for sending secret shoppers to Dallas restaurants to monitor their compliance with reopening guidelines. His findings claimed that 96% of businesses were not complying with the rules. Critics argue that Cuban, who has investments in restaurant chains, is unfairly targeting struggling small businesses and acting as a "narc" for the government.

### 22. UK Local Newspapers, Ad Revenue Decline and Google Funding (54:44–56:47)

Local newspapers in the UK are facing a crisis, with circulation down 40% and ad revenue dropping up to 80% since the lockdown began. There are legislative proposals to force tech giants like Google to pay for news content to save the industry. Industry experts warn that the disappearance of local papers will leave citizens reliant on "disinformation" found on social media.

### 23. Helicopter Money, Ireland Economy and Sky News Report (56:47–59:14)

Sky News reported on the concept of "helicopter payments" as a potential cure for the global economic slowdown, specifically in Ireland. The term refers to direct cash injections into the economy to stimulate spending. The broadcast featured imagery of helicopters literally dropping bags of money, which the hosts found ridiculous and reminiscent of historical monarchies throwing coins to peasants.

### 25. Trump Death Clock, Times Square Billboard and Princeton Study (1:05:59–1:09:12)

A 56-foot billboard titled the "Trump Death Clock" was unveiled in Times Square by filmmaker Eugene Jarecki. The clock estimates the number of U.S. COVID-19 deaths that could have been prevented if stay-at-home orders had been implemented one week earlier. The project was featured on Democracy Now with Amy Goodman, though critics suggest the billboard is a "sleazeball tactic" potentially backed by Chinese interests.

### 28. Economic Prosperity Network, China Tariffs and Trade Retaliation (1:13:30–1:15:14)

The Trump administration is considering retaliatory measures against China, including new tariffs, over the handling of the COVID-19 outbreak. Officials are discussing the formation of an "Economic Prosperity Network" of trusted partners to reduce reliance on Chinese supply chains. This shift indicates that China hawks within the administration are gaining influence over free-trade advocates as the multi-billion dollar trade deal signed in January becomes secondary.

### 30. White House COVID-19 Cases, Katie Miller and Testing Reliability (1:17:46–1:22:05)

Katie Miller, press secretary to Vice President Mike Pence and wife of advisor Stephen Miller, tested positive for COVID-19.

### 31. VE Day 75th Anniversary, Netherlands Silence and Media Neglect (1:22:05–1:25:41)
