Thrust Package

00:00 I caught COVID from a sailor in Seattle. Adam Curry. It's Thursday, October 22nd, 2026. This is your horde-winning Kibbo Nation Media Assassination episode 1914. This is no agenda. Coming to you from the heart of the Texas Hill Country here in FEMA, region number six in the morning, everybody. This time, once again, for your media deconstruction with a well, with a very special guest host who is returning in his very new special studio, Dana Brunetti will be with us in 90 seconds from now. It's Thursday, October 22nd, broadcasting live from a cyber truck.

00:44 They're gummies. House of cards are on this dashboard full of gummies. Hollywood to Hollywood. The audio gets muddy. Elon on the OLID. Tesla doing some assaults. Dana texting Curry, like, hey, should I move my vault? Five kids colliding. Everybody talking over Adam twisting knobs like a caffeinated lawnmower. Last show was a traffic jam. I talked over collisions. Four simultaneous arguments. No audible decisions. War off on air gummies made up by declaration. Then requested cybertruck, acoustic rehabilitation. Stainless steel confession booth. The echoes getting buried. Cold storage for the Bitcoin candy cupboard for the berries. From the red carpet to the ranch, retired cinematic legend. Now the gummy bear ambassador of media deconstruction.

01:29 TAC gummies. Wallet in a lockdown. Don't be sending on my name. No more gummies. That's what he said. The gummy bears deny it. They demand to be fed. House of cars, house of snacks. Adam, check the audio. The gummy man's back for my Hollywood heavyweight. Governor of El Dorado. Squirrel Hunts a Cyber Truck Commander. The man who put the high and high definition. Dana Brunetti in the morning. Gummy Brunetti. There he is, everybody. Yeah.

02:09 All right. Thank you, Paul Schaefer. Yes. Is my mic on? Yeah, not only is your mic on, man, you sound good. This is amazing. You've done outdone yourself. I need to get a copy of that song, and I'm going to put it as my alarm every morning. Yeah, Alex will be thrilled, no doubt. I'll put it on repeat. The only thing that's a little disappointing and no longer congruent with the song is you're not in the cyber truck. Yeah, you came up with that idea. Well, so there's a couple reasons. One, it's raining here in Northern California. And you don't want to get electrocuted in your cyber truck. Is that it? No, it's sitting outside in the rain, rusting, as everyone thinks that they rust in the rain.

02:54 You can't take them through car washes, apparently. Although I take mine through twice a week. No, in my shop, my 450 was already inside the shop. I have a very nice shop, and I didn't want to pull a wet car in here and drip water all over the floors. Oh, brother. Do you have a shag carpeting in the shop? Is that what's going on here? There is a carpet in the TV area over in the man cave area. There is a carpet there, but where we watch football and all the everyone hangs out. But so the 450 was inside here, and it's not getting used because of the price of diesel. And so I figured, I'll turn it into a studio.

03:38 Okay, so the reason is you can't afford the diesel. Okay, I get it. I get it. That makes total sense. It makes total sense. No, it's my, as some of my redneck buddies up here refer to it, it's the Cowboy Cadillac. It's a very nice 450 that we use to haul horse trailers and things around. Is it a dually? It is a dually. It's a big when John saw this thing, he flipped out on it. Because I think one of the first dinners I had with him, I showed up in this thing, and it's always fun to have a valet try to park it. But you don't need to heat the coils before starting, do you? You can just turn the key. No, this thing fires right up. Because when I had the biodiesel, I had a biodiesel Mercedes station wagon.

04:24 Can you give me shit about having a Tesla? This thing was great. I saw it on the street with a for-sale sign. Like, I'm buying that thing. And it was. Did you stop at McDonald's to fill it up? No, there's a place across the bay in it was called the Oasis or the Oasis Biofuel or Biofuel Oasis, like some dude in his garage. You're living in the Bay Area, driving a biodiesel. What happened to you, Curry? The thing was, I couldn't really drive it anywhere because you have all these valet places. And this thing. it was like 1976 or something. You needed to preheat the coil.

05:04 So you have these car hops jumping in like, no, it won't start, mister. Yeah, well, you gotta, you gotta heat the coils, man. What? What? It's like a couple of the old tractors I have around here that you gotta, it's got the little coil emblem on it. You gotta let that thing glow for a little bit. Exactly. All right. So thank you very much for coming on again. Of course. People love hearing you. They love your stories. They love the. Well, this kind of it's polarizing. Some people like it when we argue. Some don't. I'm not quite sure why they wouldn't like it. At least it makes sense. So let's go back to the, we might as well, since we're talking about trucks and cyber trucks, we might as well go straight to the

05:50 to you texting me on gummies as usual. Oh, God, this was man. This one was good. I can't believe it. And you're, and you're on X, like, this is Elon. It's great. This flying car is the best. It's awesome. I'm like, what is wrong? Surely you see that this is not an actual. That's what I said. Anybody can go back and look at everything I posted that evening. It wasn't what you just said. You're telling people, you're unhinged. You just hate Elon. This is great. Look at this. He's an innovative. He is the modern day Edison. I know you said that. I did say that. I know you said that.

06:30 I did say that. When he puts a flying car in everybody's garage, then I'll call him the modern day Edison. No, no, no. So that's not going to happen. And your little tricycle that you're going to get, it's not going to fit in your garage either. No, that actually does fit. I've already checked it in. I saw a video of it. It has fans with the bicycle tires and fly and flew over a cyber truck. No, that's that. That thing is super lame. What is that? The arrows or something? It's basically a kite. No, that thing, I would never drive or fly in that thing. That's no good. What you sent me is this, it's like one step up from that. No, no, it's a realistic flying machine. It's the

07:14 DAT Air JP1. That's a real thing. It has a hybrid. So you got a generator in it that is generating electricity to keep the. So you don't think the Tesla roaster is a real thing? No, it can hop for exactly eight seconds. Oh, God. Here we go with hopping and it doesn't fly. It jumps. It doesn't. It doesn't. Look up the definition of fly. Look up the definition of hop or jump. Here you are. Tell me that. You're doing it. You're doing it. Yeah, I know, because I'm so sick of the. Look, there's no practical use of this thing. It's not going to, you're not going to use it to fly to, I'm not going to fly down to Texas to see you in it.

07:53 Exactly. But it does demonstrate just it shows that we're, you know, it's badass. I think you said this on the last show. It's, it's, it's, look what the French president is doing. Oh, no, no, no, he's driving. I think it's. And look what we're doing. We have this thing driving upside down, sucking to the ramp, and then flying off of it, doing a kit flip, turning around, and landing. Is it completely ludicrous and stupid? Yes. Yeah. Merka. Merka, baby. Yes. Exactly. It's the epitome of America. I'm with you on that. I'm with you on that. I am. And I think the memes that I saw online where you see the roadster doing a flip and then, you know, it's like innovation in America and then Innovation the EU.

08:38 It has the bottle cap attached to the bottle. I don't know whether there was the guy actually doing the video. I couldn't tell if it was wrong or not, which goes back to watching that car, by the way, and being on Twitter, watching that unveiling and being on Twitter on gummies. I literally turned to my wife and was like, I think I'm really stoned because the thing is in a flip. And I had to keep re-watching it because I was so confused what was going on. Oh, man. That's funny. Here you are. Here you are. Here you are. Wow. I am really high. There you go. That's pretty much what I said when that car came off of that ramp and flipped.

09:20 But I didn't want to watch it on my phone. So I'm like, I'm going to watch this thing on TV. It's got to be somebody streaming it on YouTube. So I turn on YouTube on the TV, and there's like 50 live streams. Oh, no doubt. And there's Elon. He's there talking. And I hadn't looked at anything. He looked, but he talks very robotically to begin with. And I was like, wow, this kind of seems AI, but that's just kind of how he talks. And he started going on about. you know, about the unveiling of the roadster and the hurdles they had and you know, missed deadlines and on and on.

10:00 It was super believable. They had the audience there, they had his brother Kimball with the cowboy hat in the audience. And so I'm watching this thing, and he starts talking about if and we're doing this for all these different cryptos. And if you send, scan the code that's on the screen and send your crypto and we will double it. Oh, so you were looking at a scam stream. Yes. Oh, because I that's 100%. And it was all AI. That's what I thought. Yeah, because when you text him, you go, are you giving Elon your Bitcoin? I'm like, oh, my God, he's on gummies and he's looking at one of those fake streaming things.

10:44 I've got to save him. I've got to save him because this is dangerous. You can't be sending your crypto to anybody like that. No. So, but then I scanned the barcode and it goes, it goes to roadsterevent.com. Oh, awesome. And whatever this whole thing. Like, it was so well done. Even my wife, who's an attorney, started. She's like, are you kidding? She's like, I have some Bitcoin. So she went down in her office and was double the game. What could possibly be wrong? Yeah, I sent it to Elon. He'll come back double. Of course. Wow. Was she on gummies too? I'm not sure. I don't think so.

11:25 It was good. But then I started watching. I was like, wait, don't do anything. And then I'd already texted you. No, no, I'd already texted you. And by the time you had responded, I had already put together that it was a scam because the main reason was that the videos started back over. Yeah, exactly. It's on the list. What happened? It started back over. So I'm like, what the crap? Where's the car? So I didn't even care about the scam. I just went away from that. I wanted to see the damn car. So I was back out of that. And I go to another video. And it's the same. It's the same one. Like all 10, the top 10 ones that had like 30, 50, 60,000 views each that were live watching it were all these scam videos, all the top ones.

12:10 I couldn't believe it. So amazing. I ended up, I'm like, all right, I got to watch this on my phone. So I pulled up and watched it on my phone. And then, so now my mind is completely twisted because I'm like, that was a scam. And I'm watching this. And then the car flips. I'm like, what is going on? Like, why can't I find this from video? Oh, okay. So it was like a double. That was really the now. Did you put it? Because, of course, this was the Roadster. I mean, I think I said on the last show. No, I'm not putting a $50,000 deposit down on a car that we don't even know what it's going to cost yet. Supposedly, it might be around $250,000 for the basic one. And then there's the thrust package and then the rocket package.

12:55 Thrust thrust only. Oh, yeah. I'm writing that there. The thruster package. Yeah, you thrust. All right. But I've owned every single Tesla. We've talked about this before. This one, I don't know if I will buy it or not because if I lived in LA or someplace where it's cool to have a fancy car, then maybe. But I mean, I still have a couple of Ferraris here and I have a couple other sports cars. Oh, I'm sorry. I tripped over my Ferrari. Excuse me. I'm on the game dropping. I'm on the shag carpet. Adam in the show. I'm kind of a big deal, okay?

13:36 You are. You actually are. You are. There's no doubt about it. You are a big deal. I'm humbled. I'm humbled to have you on my little podcast here. I'm humbled to be here. So, what it reminded me of was a Kickstarter. You do these Kickstarters and you wait like, well, we'll have the first prototype in six months. And then a year later, I was like, well, we got really far. And then, you know, you're 18 months in. Here's a video of it. I'm like, oh, wow, it's so cool. And then you wait another two years. And then eventually sometimes you get your money back. Nothing happens. No, no, no, you don't. No, I've gotten money back. I did a really, I don't think you do anymore.

14:18 I think it's in the fine print now where it's really they don't have to reflect. Well, I did it. I did a Kickstarter with Sir Gene for the original Podcaster Pro, which was a great idea. But we could not get the engineering together cheap enough. How much money did you raise? Oh, Gene would know. We raised, we didn't, I think we needed $100,000 or something. We didn't quite make that, but we returned all the money. Everybody got their money back. Well, if you don't hit the. if you don't hit the, and I could be wrong, but from what I remember years ago, because I don't use Kickstarter, Indiegogo, any of those things, the money goes back.

14:57 It's too much vapor wear on it. Yeah. But the way it used to be is if you didn't hit your goal, the money went back. If you hit your goal, then they could start production or use it or whatever to do whatever they're going to do. And I think now they don't have to send the money back if they don't deliver. Well, it was a sad moment because we had it working, you know, but again, with the engineering part, there's a whole bunch of issues. But Gene and I are going to put together the microphone company. So the Curry One microphone, that is going to happen. Will it have an echo? Yes, it'll have a Dana Brunetti setting.

15:37 Brunetti setting. How do I sound in the cowboy catalog? Hello. I'm on the Dana Brunetti setting. Again, I'm sorry that I live in such a huge place. I get this huge cavernous rooms that echo. So obviously, cool for America. I love that. But it was, to me, it was very clear that this was right ahead of the earnings where Elon dropped that. Yeah, we've been investigating a merger between Tesla and SpaceX. Well, I think at the end of the day, he has better access, right? We see the gyrations in the market for the sub-scale neo-clouds, right?

16:18 Coreweave is an extraordinary company run by a great CEO. Actually, I should have, that's the wrong one. I should have started with this one. No, I think this is the one. Where is it? I think this is. Great team at execution. The problem is they're sub-scale relative to SpaceX. And then if you put SpaceX and Tesla together, I think one of the main motivations behind the merger, as somebody who owns shares in both companies, is they need he wants to get scale now. He wants to accelerate scale now because if you have scale around capital, and if you put the companies together, it's easier to borrow money, right? It's easier to raise money cheaper, et cetera. And you're going to need to raise cheap capital to build out all this cap access.

16:59 And I will say, I don't know how he does it, but profit in their, I think this is their first report. As for the earnings for SpaceX, first profitable quarter for SpaceX, bringing it closer to SP 500 inclusion, revenue of more than 160% to $14.6 billion beats across all three segments, space, connectivity, and the rebranded SI, formerly known as AI segment. The star of the earnings show was SI. Now SpaceX's largest business, Musk laying out aggressive plans to bring 13 gigawatts of AI compute capacity online by the end of 2027. That is higher than previous forecasts, which were already ambitious. SpaceX ended Q3 with 1.7 gigawatts deployed.

17:43 SpaceX also saying that many customers are asking for that compute. They can afford to essentially be picky in terms of who they're bringing on for partnerships, and that deployments are generating a payback in less than a year. Musk forecasting eye-popping growth on the call. I mean, in a nutshell, what this implies for SpaceX annual recurring revenue by the end of 27 is somewhere between $500 billion and a trillion. SpaceX is also building out an additional 20 gigawatts of power and cooling infrastructure. Remember, they are designing their own gas turbine parts now as well. Musk saying that that's really the bottleneck in terms of building out all the compute rather than the chips, the NVIDIA chips, since they work exclusively with NVIDIA.

18:28 I think he's smart. He's smart. All right. But did you hear how he was talking just now? Could you think that that was AI? And he talks like AI a little bit. So that's so easy to fall for that scam. But that's also, that is the Silicon Valley milieu that everybody's in. Listen to Altman. The difficult, like, I'm sad. But Elon, to be fair, has always talked like that. Yeah, no, yeah. He didn't. He's got real autism. Yes. Yes, he does. And he's doing something for the autistic kids of America. Elon Musk says he plans to give one share of his SpaceX company to every single child in America next year.

19:12 And some quick back of the napkin math here with around 73 million children in America, according to the U.S. Census Bureau, and SpaceX trading for around $146 a share right now. That promise would amount to more than $10 billion. Musk hasn't explained how those shares would be distributed, but these announcements come as the tech industry faces growing questions about AI and its effect on jobs, safety, and society, and who should share in the wealth it creates. Yeah. Well, my granddaughter's going to share. Christine has a lot of money. And it's also a hard. It's such a horrible, horrible thing if you listen to so many people from people explaining like it's going to increase inflation.

19:52 Oh, yeah. But I have a clip for that. Go ahead to play Galloway Swish. I was just about to say, stop listening to Pivot. I heard this one, too. I'm glad you clipped it. I'm glad you clipped it. CEOs and executives should keep their priorities and their nonprofits and their politics to themselves, drive as much shareholder value as possible. And then we should have an alternative minimum tax of about 40% on anyone making over a million dollars or any companies making over a billion dollars. And then let elected representatives elected by Americans decide how to allocate that cash. Oh, please. What he's trying to do, what this is, is customer acquisition. He's trying to create 73 million retail shareholders that are rooting for SpaceX.

20:34 A single share? One share. Or why doesn't he just give this money and pull 100,000 kids out of poverty? What about that? What about funding all the kids with AIDS in Africa? Hey, it's coming. This is Africa. Pull that one out. Come on, man. Pull the money out of help the kids with AIDS in Africa. In Africa. Wow. Funding their medicine. This has Trump written all over it. It's such ridiculous. This is Trump calling Musk and the Dario guy and say, I like the idea of the Dario guy. The Dario guy. And it's a little bit quite, it's reverse. It's socialism. Yeah, it really is. It's socialism. It's like they've pivoted. You know, it's, oh, man, it is so.

21:18 These people are just so unhinged. These two in particular. We don't have to worry about it because if you play Swish of Musk, it doesn't matter because he's going to jail. Oh, really? Oh, Group. Under Kamala Harris, he might be in jail right now, right? He is correct. Right. Right. And that's not because she's some avenging fury. It's because there's a lot of questions around different companies of his. If Donald Trump loses the House and the Senate, I would worry. I'd be worried if I were him. You know, no matter how rich he is. There were all these agencies, some of which he put a knife in and killed in the Doge, many of whom were investigating him. He stopped like half a dozen investigations of his various companies. So they're going to start investigating again.

22:00 You think he's not on the list? He's at the top of that list. Donald Trump obviously is at the top and his family. But Elon Musk is right up there for that. And you have to, he knows what's coming. Like, he's not stupid. Like, of all the many things you can say about him, is he has a very big sense of fate. And I think it's coming for him and real hard. You know what I love so much about the Pivot podcast is, you know, Core Weave is now down 30, 35%. It's kind of the canary in the coal mine for all this financing, off-book financing, bonds, credit default swaps. There's all kinds of stuff going on in what they call the AI trade.

22:43 And then I hear Galloway, and he has to do the stupid Core Weave ad read. I'm like, because he can't actually say on the show, like, hey, this is falling apart. This Core Weave is a problem because it's an advertiser. I'm like, this is exactly why this show has always been value for value. What a bunch of dupes. Now, are you familiar with effective altruism? Oh, yeah. EA. What do you know about it? Well, Sam Bankman Fried and his whole lot were very much about effective altruism. But yeah, no, it's insane

23:26 in my view. But where were you going with it? Well, so, well, I'll tell you where I'm going with it. So effective altruism, which started, I think, at Harvard with some British dude. And the whole idea is you need to put real money, your real money into these nonprofits that spend stuff on the ground. So, you know, dragging kids with AIDS out of Africa or whatever Karasha. Right. Well, part of it was it was fine for them to make billions and billions of dollars because they were going to give it all away. Yes, exactly. But their giveaways only really count for future people, not for current people.

24:07 So they do things based upon what a trillion new people will have to deal with, not what is going on right now, like pulling kids with AIDS out of Africa. The way she said that was bizarre. So when I heard this report, I'm like, oh, no. Now, remember, Sam Bankman Fried also gave millions of dollars to political campaigns. Some Republicans too, I think. But mainly through his parents, you know, the Stanford professors who are all, you know, they were a little. a little bit shady at best. I'm not quite sure. His mom is weird.

24:45 So when I heard this report, I'm like, oh, this does not bode well. Anthropic says it plans to commit 5% of its shares to a new public benefit fund with support potentially going towards nonprofit organizations or towards what the company calls direct contributions or distributions to specific populations. Anthropic's board could choose to add an additional 2% of the shares for every 50% increase in the company's value above a certain baseline. The company said it could also use the funds to study and address how AI is disrupting and displacing jobs.

25:23 More details are expected in the coming months. In response, Elon Musk said on X, I recommend giving the shares directly to the public. Then early this morning, Musk posted next year, I'll give one of my SpaceX shares to every kid in America. This will be the first of many. Musk currently owns about 4.8 billion SpaceX shares. That represents that figure would rise to $6.4 billion when taking into account unvested awards and stock options. And according to U.S. Census data, there are 72 million children under 18 in the U.S. as of July 2023. So Anthropic, who Karaswish has nothing to say about, they're going to put it into some kind of fund where they are in charge of directing the money, which you know is going to go into all kinds of political stuff and stuff that'll ruin our country.

26:14 Because these people are crazy. It's going to be lobbying for their own interest. Yes. Elon is basically giving free money away, which they've been complaining about for the longest time. About, well, he could help so many people. Well, now he's doing it and they're going after him. And they go after him for so many reasons. If he was still a Democrat, they would love him. He would be amazing. But since he got red-pilled, they've done nothing but attack him. And he's doing a lot of great things. And I know you think I drool over him, but the stuff he does, both from a standpoint of like that, of

26:57 giving money away, essentially, by giving SpaceX shares away to kids, but also just the things that he creates and helps people better their lives. Full self-driving is a game changer once you accept it into your life. It's unbelievable. Believe me. Believe me, it's amazing. He bought Grockbot. He didn't make it. He bought it. It doesn't matter. He also bought it. He also bought Tesla. Tesla, he didn't invent SpaceX. It's all the engineers. Yeah, again, it's like a producer. I didn't make the social network. A lot of people did, but I was the producer of it. I didn't make House of Cards. I didn't write every script.

27:42 I was one of the people that were involved. But if you don't have people that are like that, those things wouldn't happen. He's literally catching, literally catching rockets from space. Not him personally. He's not running out there with the baseball mitt, grabbing these rockets. But if it wasn't for him and somebody like him behind it, those things wouldn't happen. Go to Memphis. I'm going to bring it home back to the blue-collar man a little bit. Go to Memphis Electrical. Memphis Electro. Leaders want to ban or at least pause data centers. Others want the work to continue. Before you set that, you got to calm down a little bit.

28:25 I'm in my truck. I feel like I'm driving. You're getting all worked off. I drink a lot of coffee. You really got to calm down. But I feel like I'm pinned in with this microphone stuck in front of my face. And I've got this seat behind me. I can't move. All right. All right. All right. Now, set up Memphis properly. Don't just toss it to something. We don't know what's going on. You're going to know what's going on. It's basically the AI center that people have been bitching about with money. Am I calm enough now? Yeah, much better. It's okay. Okay. And my dog's in the backseat farting. Leaders want to ban or at least pause data centers. Others want the work to continue.

29:03 Action News 5's Caitlin Miller spoke with electricians about why they are traveling thousands of miles here to the Mid-South to work in the Mid-South and just how much money they're being offered. There are so many people here today, but they're actually not from Memphis. I'm going to give you a look into that right now. Dallas Footworks. Orlando, Florida. Augusta, Georgia. St. Petersburg, Florida. And the reason they're here today is data centers. Musk, the state, we love this money you're giving us, man. Those aren't words heard too often in Memphis, where the debate over a data center moratorium remains one of the most heated in the city.

29:45 But for the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, data centers mean dollar signs. We haven't had this much work and money in a while, so to be down in the South and to get this much money is a big thing for the union. Big thing for us. We're talking over $8,000 a week. At least that's what electricians at IBEW's Midtown Office tell me, and it explains why they're coming from all over. I'm from IBW, Local369, Louisville, Kentucky. I'm out of local 446, Monroe, Louisiana. We love boys that had a whole three days. Took us three days to get here. We just got here. I slept in the parking lot. We made it here, what, 10 o'clock last night? It was already picked. And for those wondering, well, what about local workers?

30:26 These electricians explained to me that locals get first call. The people that's here want the job, they go first. And, you know, we come from other places and we be on board too. And that's how we get the job. So we're going order. These workers told me that it isn't out of the ordinary to travel like this, but what is new is the distance they're willing to go. Many of them said this isn't their first time they've worked on data centers, but these contracts, many offered by Elon Musk, are far greater than anything they've ever seen. Here in Memphis, Caitlin Miller, Action News 5. Yeah, I'm really quite sad about all the negative noise that came out of these so-called frontier labs.

31:09 It started, oh man, like over a year ago with the commencement speeches. And all these kids are convinced that AI is going to kill us all. It's going to kill us all. It's the apocalypse. And The Economist actually did a pretty good little piece on how that is historically not true and currently not true. Are you about to lose your job? At no time in polling history have Americans been less optimistic about their long-term employment prospects. And the main cause of this gloom is artificial intelligence.

31:47 Americans aren't alone. One survey of people in 19 countries found that 40% of workers fear job loss within five years due to AI and automation, and 60% are concerned about machines taking over roles. But they might be worrying unnecessarily. The share of the working age population in the OECD with a job is at record highs. And the number of white-collar jobs in America has actually gone up by 3 million since ChatGPT launched in late 2022. Economists like to use ChatGPT's launch as a convenient starting point for studying AI's impact on the labor market.

32:29 But it can be misleading. Those early AI tools were primitive. Until fairly recently, any slowdown in recruitment is unlikely to have owed much to AI. The slowing in some entry-level white-collar work appears to predate ChatGPT. Many firms went on a hiring binge during the pandemic when locked down consumers were craving all things digital. But as interest rates started to rise quickly in 2022, that hiring spike petered out as firms turned to outsourcing to save costs. Exactly. And mind you, The Economists, a bunch of very left-wing people running that outfit, and they're just being honest about it. But this has historically always been true with technology.

33:14 Given how fast AI is improving, it would be rash to completely dismiss people's job loss fears. But if AI really was to put millions of people out of work, it would be unprecedented. New technologies have never before destroyed jobs meaningfully faster than they produced them. Take the computer. In the early years, it led to dire predictions of mass displacement. The consequences could be dramatic. Halving a workforce in an office like this because these people are replaced by a chip. But this didn't happen. In fact, one figure suggests that roughly half of America's employment growth between 1980 and 2010 came from the creation of entirely new occupations.

34:00 If changes were to happen, experts should be able to see them coming. The first signs would be sharply rising productivity combined with weak real wage growth in America, the world's frontier economy, as well as a recession, because downturns cleansed the economy of productive jobs. So for now, try not to worry. The jobs apocalypse isn't here yet. No, it's not here yet. But everyone's all psyop that it's, oh, we're all gonna die. It's gonna. This is a golden age. A golden age, I tell you. It is. It's an unbelievable age, and it's tremendous. And just

34:38 what you're able to accomplish with AI, and 99.9% of people don't fully grasp that yet, and they will start to more and more. But it just, I think it's going to increase productivity so much more. It's going to increase jobs. It will eliminate a lot of jobs, but that happens with any evolution of time and technology and advancements. And, you know, horses took away or carriages took away jobs of horses. Well, horse riders. CNBC has a better example, which I'm going to use from now on. For much of the 20th century, connecting a phone call required a human being. And that human was almost always a woman.

35:23 Telephone operation became the single largest occupation for white U.S.-born women under the age of 20. By the 1940s, nearly 95% of America's telephone operators were female. Today, the nation's far-flung telephone network has become the nerve system of this democracy. A decade later, automation caught up, allowing Americans to place long-distance calls themselves. The need for switchboard operators slowly disappeared. Research shows the women working the switchboards, they mostly dropped out of the workforce entirely or wound up in lower-paying jobs. Most people are not changing careers very often. They make their career decisions early and they stick with those careers.

36:07 If the value of that work, not just the specific job, but the type of work they do, suddenly goes out of fashion, becomes technologically obsolete, they're going to, in general, do something not as good. Just as switchboard jobs faded, millions of office and clerical jobs emerged. And it was just in time. Not for the switchboard operators, but for the next generation of women and those who could now enter the workforce because of another technological development, the washing machine. Yeah, baby, the laundry robot. I mean, you can debate whether that is good or not. And by the way, the women who were out of a job now, this is why we created OnlyFans. There's only opportunity. Oh, you're awful. I got that from the troll room. Like, yeah, I got to use that one.

36:52 That's good. That's good. But now, here's ABC, and just everybody's so negative. We talked a lot about AI being like the Terminator out there, but most Americans agree with us saying AI is bad for society, while two-thirds oppose more data centers in the U.S. It's according to a new ABC News Washington Post Ipsos poll released minutes ago. Take a look at the graphic. Purple over here, that's the bad side. The light purple is the good side. And the generational divide may be surprising to some. Younger Americans are more likely to say AI is bad for society than older Americans.

37:27 That's in the dark purple, again. Now, 65% of people under 30 say it is bad, along with 59% of those between 30 to 39. A slimmer majority of Americans 40 and older say AI is bad for society. So as you get older, they're like, eh, whatever. The ABC News poll revealed people remain skeptical of AI's benefits and believe possible consequences of AI are a high risk, like computer hacks, job losses, and God forbid, something worse than that. Still, people are split when it comes to the personal impact of AI. 50% of those polled say it, so half, say AI is good for them. 49% say it's bad of them for them. You know, ever since the

38:11 Grockbot Muse came in, and I've told, I've told people, try Muse. I am getting email after email, people saying, I was really negative. I thought it was crap, but you kept hammering on it. So, okay, I gave it a shot. And they're like, I'm overwhelmed how awesome this is. Yeah, it's go ahead. It's pretty phenomenal. A couple of buddies of mine, I've turned them on to Grockbot, and one of their wives just set one up, and she has a bookkeeping business, and she's like blown away of what this thing can do. And she's saying something that would take me hours to do. It's knocking it out in a couple minutes.

38:52 So it's increasing her productivity and giving her the ability to do her job even better. But here's where it's going. This is happening sooner than I thought. Google just announced, you know, Google, for all intents and purposes, owns the Android mobile operating system. They have like the App Store for Apple. They have the Play Store. So they've said that you will now be able to share your vibe-coded apps with your buddies through a special version of the Play Store. This, I mean, and you know what? As I was reading. reading the article, I'm like, huh, I hadn't actually thought about that. I told my robot, I want a podcast app and I want it to do all of these things.

39:33 And one prompt, and it created a kick-ass podcast app and completely based upon my Muse robot of the stuff I listen to, where I am, if I'm on the road, show prep that I do. And so now it's discovering podcasts for me that I never would have found. And I think I did maybe probably, well, initially 20, but I've done probably 30, you know, reprompts, like, I don't like this, fix this. And well, that's that, that's the key with anybody who's starting with AI, particularly with these ones like Grockbot and Muse.

40:13 It all comes down to the prompt and what you tell it. And the more detailed that you can be with the initial prompt that you give it, and you literally just tell it what you want it to do. This is what I want. Anything that can be done on a computer, it pretty much can be built by AI. So if you give it a very detailed, like, I want this to do this, to do that, to do that, it will build it to the best that it can, or it'll tell you what needs to be done to make that happen. Then once you get that first version of it, you then do what, like what you said. You know, you end up 30 more prompts. You're like, oh, I like that, but change that button and move it over to here and make it round rather than square.

40:55 And I mean, I'm oversimplifying it, but it really comes down to the prompts. And if you give it a good prompt, it'll build amazing things. So we used to always have to wait until the maker of the program on your computer or the app developer, you know, changed it around, added features. You'd send him requests. You'd put negative reviews on the Play Store or on the App Store. And then it would come around to it. I'm like, no, I just want, like for the donation spreadsheet, I just want something that scrolls. I don't want all this other, I don't want to snap around. I just want to do this one thing and do it well.

41:34 And it does it. This is, we have these very powerful computers, and we've been pretty much at the behest of app developers. And I feel bad because I work with a hundred app developers who make podcast apps. And now I'm saying your business is probably over because now you can just connect your robot to it and it'll get whatever you want. It'll subscribe. It'll, you know, I said, I told my robot, I love Joe Rogan, but when it's an MMA show, just skip it. Don't tell me. I don't want to know. I'm not interested. So it's now sending you images of Joe Rogan in a bikini? No. You're taking me off my high, man.

42:18 But the big change here, whereas, you know, first we had the chatbots. I hated them. I thought it was dangerous. It is, you know, people think it's their friend. It's given, it's just, it's not, it wasn't making any tool calls, not connected to any actual search. It was just pulling stuff out of its butt. Okay, I have a question on that. So you were so against the chatbots. Yeah. And I'm a little confused. I get it, but I'm confused because you've completely done a 180 from those to Muse and Grockbot and everything else that you're using with AI. You were so against AI art initially, you were AI music, and you've completely done a 180 with that.

43:00 What was the issue that you had with chatbots? And I'm not disputing it. I'm just curious to get a clear view of this. And then we should also probably move off AI after this because we're going to get a lot of people. Yeah, no, people are getting mad. Yeah. But the difference between the chatbots initially and like Muse and Grokbot. Productivity. Instead of it being some kind of oracle or buddy who you talk to all day, and that's all we saw. We saw people talking to him. We saw people going off the rails into complete psychosis. It was giving wrong answers because it was just getting stuff from the corpus. Remember early on, well, my training doesn't have any data after 2024.

43:40 But then once they start talking. Let me finish my answer. All right, go ahead. And the fact that it was talk, I don't like the talking back. I love speech to text because it's just simpler and easier than typing, but I don't want to wait around for it to talk to me. Just type back to me. But then they start, and it started with Claude, OpenClaw. I'm like, okay, this is interesting because now you have this thing in the middle that is steering this language model and making tool calls. Then they came out, Anthropic mainly, focus entirely on coding.

44:19 coding. And then I saw, oh, wow, I can now code all these different things. I have real customers with Godcaster. I was making screaming radio stations, interfaces, fractional program directors, all kinds of things like this. I'm like, okay, this is phenomenal. And then as everyone focused on the so-called enterprise, that's when Zuckerberg, I think, just made a brilliant move by releasing Muse, where in the actual instructions, it says right off the top, you are not a chat bot. I'm like, yeah, that's right. You're here to do things for me. And it's connecting to all these data sources.

44:57 And this is the revolution that I think people are waiting for. Add to that, that your phone, which comes with Gemini, if you have an Android, you can't get rid of it. You'll just tell your whatever robot you have, which can be Gemini, hey, make an app for me. And then, you know, make sure it's safe, whatever, put it on the Play Store so I can share it with my buddies. This is so popular that Anthropic had to rush around and create one of their own. It seems like we have a news alert almost every day on Anthropic. In fact, we have another one. Kate Rooney, what's this?

45:33 Hey, Scott. Well, Anthropic just announcing its move into AI agents, taking on Meta with its own Muse agent that's gotten a lot of buzz. Chat GPT, you know, but I've gone into this arena. There's the buzzy instinct agent that's gotten a lot of traction in Silicon Valley. Anthropic has been sort of a laggard in this space. They have not had their own version of an AI agent. So basically, the version of AI that's a lot more proactive. So it can go out, shop for you, read through your emails, act almost like a personal assistant. That's how they describe it in this press release that just came out. It's called Duet. It is not widely available yet. So there's a wait list. They say that they're announcing a preview and it's going to be available eventually to pro and max subscribers.

46:17 So the company kind of playing catch up here, Scott. I had heard from a source earlier. We weren't able to nail it down, but that they were working on this, which in some ways is a surprise for Anthropic, which has been a B2B enterprise company. It's now moving a bit more into consumer. And this is the answer to what Meta has done with Muse, but kind of a late mover here, but getting into the agent game, Scott. Not a surprise, though. I mean, in the big picture, I think people expected the Frontier Labs to be the competitors for Muse. And driving usage. This is how a lot of people are adapting and now using AI. The expectation has moved into this arena, so they have needed to do this. And I think you're right, Scott. The expectation is you got to have an agent to stay relevant at this point. So, yeah, things are going to change, of course.

47:01 The thing that I, when I heard this next report, I could not believe how dumb these people are. Getty Images. Getty Images, the company that was a once go-to source for professional photography, is planning to file for bankruptcy as it restructures its debt and go private. The move comes as AI-generated images create new competition for traditional stock photo services. Tell me, how can Getty Images not be doing deals the way the music publishers have done? They've got Suno completely under their thumb saying, all right, for every single song that you put out, we're getting a piece of it because you took our stuff.

47:41 I mean, of course, all this imagery was all trained on Getty and images that have been out there forever. It's baffling. Like $500 million in debt. But also, where did the debt come from? I mean, they're just paying photographers and they have databases of digital images. So where's the money going? That's a good question. I don't know, but it's just, it's baffling. Like, you could, you should be making tons of money off of this. I don't know. I don't know. Yeah, somebody dropped a ball there. Yeah. Should we go and save them?

48:18 You and I could probably go in and save them. All that stuff is. Yeah, those people will be losing their jobs and replace because it's all digital imagery. So it's done. I just last night, yesterday, I dropped a two grand on Grokbot for the year. So I'm all in on Grokbot. You didn't drop two grand. Two grand for, I just dropped a couple Gs. That is a lot for stuff that basically was always free. Yeah. Did you hit limits? Is that what happened? No, I was already using the Ultra plan, but I have the Max plan on Codex and Claude and Grokbot, but I've realized that I've been using all Grokbot, and I set up Agent 10Can to work so Grokbot would work

49:10 as an orchestrator for Claude and Codex. So when I'm building stuff, I had all three of them working. working together. And then I just started realizing that a lot of that was just overcomplicating it. And Grok could just pretty much do everything. And it gets better literally every single time. So I'm not even using ChatGPT that much or DOT. Dot. Have you actually got a DOT account? No, no. DOT is in ChatGPT. Oh, it's part of it. Oh, it's part of it. Okay. Yeah. Yeah, it just popped up one day. And it actually does do some cool things, like alerts me some issues in my email and stuff. I just haven't turned it off and had Grokbot start to do that, that part of it, but it will. And now Grokbot and Grok and X are all in one.

49:55 So if you go on X.com, you can see all of your bots and Grok. Everything is all integrated. Oh, it's integrated now? It's all integrated. And then if you're in a Tesla, it's all right there too. All your bots are within Grok and your Tesla as well. Oh, wow. Okay. All right. I think we've beaten the AI horse. We have plenty of listeners. Let's see. No, no, people love it, man. They love hating us. But I love them. I love them because I want everyone to be successful. I don't want them to be hating on this stuff because it is the universe just cracked wide open with possibilities. And of course,

50:38 it is incredible. And the time that we live in right now is one of the best times in the history of humans. I mean, yes, it's better than the web. It's better. We're being called the AI whores and the AI arch wizards. And Scaramonga just said that for $2,000, Grokbot better give me a courteous reach around. Okay. Let's go to France. I hear it's burning. Widespread disruption across France continues. Our cities remain littered with burnt out cars and smashed and boarded up windows.

51:18 Temporary overnight curfews have been in place in some of the biggest towns and cities across France, including Paris, Lyon, Lille, and Nice, in an attempt to prevent the violence and looting that rocked the country over the weekend. People across France have expressed shock at some of the most widespread disorder in modern French history after protests against the rising costs of living and rundown public services descended into lawlessness. The Prime Minister Sébastien Le Cornu has warned that ultra-left radical groups are hoping to create chaos ahead of next year's presidential election. A correspondent, Hugh Schofield, sent this report from Paris.

52:03 By the Place de la République in central Paris, the street cleaners are still at it, scraping up bits of charred plastic from the road. Around the square, there's the sound of hammers and drills as workmen patch up the smashed shop fronts. Build back better. Yeah, right. Oh, it's so true. Today has been a day of reckoning. First, reckoning up the damage. Across the country, some 3,000 stores were vandalized and/or looted on Saturday night. Oh, thank you for reminding me of that. Let me see. Do I have it here? Where's my got it here, don't I? Look. Here it is. Build back better.

52:41 Yeah. Build down nice. Build better of all the burdens. Like broken ones should be a building loyalty. Back better once than you. For a better life beyond your freedom. Build back better. Ah, classic Jeff Smith. Yes. So it's a total October surprise for the Republicans right so close to the midterm elections because now they can all go out and say, see, see, if you want Mondami, if you want El Syed, you're going to get Muslims.

53:26 And as your president, Emmanuel Macron is blaming the Iran war and you essentially for the rioting in France right now. I think that's the fake news. Who are you with? No, sir. Mary Martin with the Daily Wire. What? What? She's like, no, sir. Daily Wire. No, it's fun. Daily Wire. Oh, Daily Wire. Whoa, your question's okay then. Sorry, Daily Wire. Mr. President, everybody's on. I told him a long time ago, you're making a big mistake in France. You're letting everybody from the world come in. The whole world was coming in. And, you know, as you know, Paris is going to be a Muslim city very soon.

54:05 And that wasn't the deal. That wasn't the deal. I told him. mean. Close up your borders. And let's see. I've known him for probably eight or nine years. I told him as soon as I met him, I said, You're making a big mistake. We closed our borders. He did. And you know what? His borders are a problem. Yeah. Yeah. Well, he's not wrong. No, this is the one thing that everyone forgets about Trump is that he closed the borders, and that will solve most of the problems. But really, I've been in Europe. I've been to these countries. There's no national unity. Even here, you're seeing so much of that creep in. There's so many young people. What happens when you open the borders and you allow that to come in because they don't assimilate?

54:49 And so that all just, I mean, it's not even that. It's watered down so much. It's not even that. They've been taught in universities, in colleges. America sucks. And so what do they do? They all identify. Well, I got to identify with something. Instead of identifying with Jesus, don't say anything. They identify with Palestine. Oh, we're oppressed. We're the oppressed young people. We're oppressed. That's why you see all these Palestinian flags. And then there's the pride flag. People want to belong to something, but they've been taught to belong to these insane groups.

55:24 And I got this NPR report about Paris, which was just perfect. It's so NPR. In France now, the president there, Emmanuel Macron, denounced this weekend's riots that overshadowed largely peaceful protest marches across the country with scenes of violence. Largely peaceful protests. Where have we heard that before, NPR? Largely peaceful protest marches across the country with scenes of violence as roving bands of what look like mostly young people destroying property, looting stores, and fighting with police. About 2,300 people were arrested and nearly a thousand police officers injured, according to the Interior Ministry. It's one of the biggest crises in France in years. Our correspondent Eleanor Beardsley is there and has been following all this. Hello, Eleanor. Good morning, Michelle. So even watching the news.

56:10 Hello, Eleanor. Good morning, Michelle. Hello. It's a sunny day in my neighborhood. Eleanor Beardsley is there and has been following all this. Hello, Eleanor. Good morning, Michelle. Even watching the news here, we saw these images of just very disturbing violence. Some might say shocking. What was Macron's response last night? Well, let's have a listen. Let's have a listen. He said nothing justifies, explains, or excuses the violence. He spoke of all of France's shame to see its towns and streets sacked. He said, Delinquents. It's great, isn't it? I love this report. This was old. This is like a Saturday live scheme.

56:50 Yes, yes. Hot mic, hot mic, hot mic. Yes, hot mic. He spoke of all of France's shame to see its towns and streets sacked. He said delinquents would be punished, but said in no way should the violence take away from the legitimate demands of peaceful protesters. Let's remember this started as a student protest over better conditions and has widened to include public sector workers against skyrocketing energy prices, high cost of living, inequality in society. But Macron didn't really give any concrete proposals. He's leaving that to his prime minister, so he was immediately eviscerated by the left and the right for not being tough enough and not offering solutions. And I hope the young people in America within the sound of this podcast just realize that's not happening here.

57:31 You don't have this level of crap going on. It's not great. Agreed. There's all kinds of problems. Debt, inflation. But come on. This is horrible. And what does look at all the socialism that France has? Has that not fixed everything? Why are they rioting? Why is this all happening when they have free health care? Everything that they are asking for here, what happened over there? 35-hour work week. We've got student-free education. You get a stipend as a student. Oh, no. No, here it is. So I know you've been out talking to people.

58:11 What are they telling you? Oh, yeah. I was out in the streets of Paris yesterday. What about. Oh, yeah. I was out on the streets of Paris yesterday. I was just cruising around. I have to have my croissant. And I talked to some people. What are they telling you? Oh, yeah. I was out in the streets of Paris yesterday. What a mess. Burned bikes, glass, charred debris everywhere. Graffiti scrawled on Luda's doors saying things like tax the rich and capitalism kills capitalism kills students spoke with 23 year old sarah barrier in front of a charred range rover on the street oh no a charred range rover the symbolism of it is beautiful i think it's coming from a frustrated generation and a generation with uh less and less rights and opposite

58:52 opportunities and always in worst environments environment so we're used to seeing a lot of demonstrations in france but this level of violence i mean why why do people think it's gotten to this level Yeah, everyone is actually asking that. You know, for starters, yes, there is this whole protest culture in France, and it often draws small groups of troublemakers. But what we're talking about is massive. So, is it just a confluence of things that got out of control or something deeper? Anyway, the government spoke of opportunist rioters. It said ultra-left groups who want to fight police came out, and other delinquents, as Macron called them, had shown up to pillage. Yesterday, young people were still skirmishing with police in pockets. And I was out at Paris's Place de la République.

59:36 I spoke with 18-year-old Leila Barre, a student. And let me warn you, this clip contains sounds of police firing. What are you laughing about? Why are you laughing? What? Just how she talks. It's a campaign. Oh, no, it's best. It's best. I spoke with 18-year-old Leila Barre, a student. And let me warn you, this clip contains sounds of police firing tear gas. Oh, we are young people. Did she say warning that you might get triggered by sounds of police firing tear gas? Oh, no, I'm so triggered. After I got off of Grand Theft Auto 6, okay. And let me warn you, this clip contains sounds of police firing tear gas. Oh, we are young people. We are students. And we don't like Macron. We ate Macron. We ate him. We ate him.

1:00:20 We ate him with our croissants. We're eating him. Young people, we are students. And we don't like Macron. We ate Macron. And it's like 10 years of repression, of violence. We don't have enough money to leave. So now we are angry. Oh, there it is. Get a yub. Get a yub if you can't eat. Enough money to leave. So now we are angry. The police. One of the many youth out there yesterday playing cat and mouse with the police. Oh, my goodness. This is a game. This is fabulous. This is fabulous.

1:00:57 It's all political, obvious. And these kids, I mean, they're walking like, this is the only way we can change the government. These are not kids. These are not students. Anyone under 40 is a kid to me at this point. I just got to tell you. Play Durden Ferguson. One. Okay. First of all, the protests in France are students. These protests began very, very peaceful until sadly agitators jumped in and began the violence. This happens all the time. We have protests, and these protests happen because people are unhappy.

1:01:39 Yeah, you either have to be incredibly incompetent or totally blind to look at the images and think that this is students that are doing this. I posted picture after picture on my social media of the people throwing up signs and smiling as they were burning down these buildings. They're not students. They look like they're my age. I'm 45. They're people that are 30. They're not 17. So you're either a pathological liar to continue with this narrative that this is students when it's clearly radical extremists and Muslim Brotherhood inspired individuals. By the way, you can also just follow the money. You have to either just be a pathological liar or you look at the data.

1:02:18 More than 70% of the groups that are involved in the original protests had nothing to do with student protests or education. They're the same groups around the world that have also started this type of anarchy. So you either are sitting here on national TV lying to everyone because the data says that you are absolutely wrong. And look at those men on TV. Those are not students. Those are violent criminals who are trying to kill people, who are looting Louis Vuitton stores, Rolex stores, and going after and stealing anybody because they hate the country. They have no allegiance to that country. They want to burn that country down. They want to then remake it into their own country.

1:03:02 Not because I say so. It's what they're saying online when they're talking about burning down France. And France let this happen because they were kumbaya for far too long. And this is what you get when you have no borders. Why is he yelling? Is my question. Well, here's a question. How do you think she then responded to that? What's her name? Her name is Lisa. What is it? Lisa Durden. She's a social justice journalist. Oh. I'll bet she responds by this is just what you're seeing on TV. It was mostly peaceful protests. You're unhinged.

1:03:46 Okay, play it. Lisa, do you want to give a quick response? Quick response, please. What you're not going to do is call me a catholological liar. You don't know me from a campaign. And look at the data. I'm talking now. You're not going to call me a Catholic. I want to get to this. Let's have you know. I should have given her a trigger warning. This is good. You know, when I went to college for three months, my roommate, Ty Hamilton from

1:04:51 Trenton, New Jersey, the first thing he did, he says, Black kid, he says, dude, you better moisturize. I'm like, thanks, Ty. He taught me how to wash my ash. Yeah, well, I didn't get ashy, but he said, you got to moisturize it. And I've moisturized ever since. He showed me how to wash clothes. You don't know how to wash your clothes, man. You're not doing it right. Let me show you how to fold your clothes. I learned so much. But man, unhinged. Well, there's even go ahead. There's another similar where it's still, they're still defending that it's students, even though it's very clear that this is a lot more than just students play the gen in CNN.

1:05:35 Again, I have questions about this strategy. Oh, this show. I can't even watch this show. I know. When you told me to calm down earlier, and I've said this before on previous shows, sorry to pause and go on attention for a second. But doing these clips, man, make me so angry and get me so riled up. It's because you have to sit and watch this lunacy just trying to find these clips. And it's so much. And there's so much that I just skip over. I'm like, it's too much. I can't do it. It's too much. I can't do it. I'm leaving it, leaving it. So, what you're getting is a distilled version of this, distilled-down version of everything that I'm going through. And as I told you before, I don't know how you and John did it for 19 years because you're the condom.

1:06:20 You are the condom to these clips. So go ahead with continue with Jennings. I don't know how I feel about that, but thanks, I guess. Again, I have questions about this strategy because it does not seem responsive to what voters say that they actually care about. They certainly don't care about France right now in this election. Well, but they're certainly seeing images that are probably quite frightening. And I don't hear the president saying anything that isn't true. France is suffering, and all of Europe is suffering from a migrant crisis. And there are people running wild in France, burning things down, destroying historical landmarks, looting stores.

1:06:59 I was talking to Christina before the show, and she did some reality show, and they have to go find Waldo and flying all over Europe. And she says, Dad, I was in Denmark. She says, Denmark is awesome. She says, It's kind of like Holland, but without the Muslims. Yet, she said, she said, yes. The holdout seems to be Poland over there. Oh, no, no, Poland. They didn't let anybody in. So, no, it's fantastic. But Denmark, I'm sure they'll fall eventually. And they're flying the colors of the Palestinians while they do it. It has nothing to do with anything other than this attempt to tear down Western civilization wherever they perceive weakness.

1:07:44 And right now, there is weakness in Europe. They have all these crises. Absolutely false. These things that happen in France are because a bunch of students started it because they didn't like it. They didn't like the way that the country was being run. They weren't getting enough. It's the same problem that we have all over the world right now. There is not enough for the people that aren't at the top. There is not enough education. There is not enough money. We are not being paid enough for our jobs. There were French students that started this protest. Has it gotten out of hand? Absolutely. Are terrible things happened there? Absolutely. But to suggest that what Donald Trump is saying, that what's happening in France, big spooky thing happening in France, is going to come over here because this is what you're going to get from the last pandemic. How many words did he say this day?

1:08:27 Exactly. Free Palestine rally. We are not doing that. That's where I tune out of that show. Do you think Jennings will be Jerry Springer? Will Jennings be the new spokeshole for the White House? There's a lot of talk about him being the follow-up. Well, it's going to be interesting to see what happens because with Paramount now and owning CNN and how that shift will happen because obviously as the Ellison, so I. I think that there will be a it's not going to go right, but I think it'll start to come more center. So, I wouldn't be surprised if Jennings went there. Hmm, interesting.

1:09:08 I mean, he doesn't work. I mean, yeah, he's on that show, but he's not like a doesn't he have an actual job that is not a related to CNN. He drops a lot of facts on the lunatics that sit at that table. Well, CNN is definitely changing. Listen to this. Hi, everyone. I wanted to give you some news about myself and Christine Christiana. Yeah, Anampour. She was there for 43 years on this show. After thinking carefully for several months and experiencing a few sleepless nights, as you can imagine, I've decided to separate from CNN because I hate the Ellisons. My partner of 40 years ago. She's following Kara Swisher out. Yeah, well,

1:09:53 she doesn't have to. Her and Kara Swisher, they have just as much respect and tenure there. Yeah. Well, she's doing a podcast, so that'll be fine. Who is? Who? Christiana Anampur. So she is following Kara Swisher out and back to podcasting. Well, I think Kara Swisher didn't actually leave CNN yet. I think, you know, that thing she's doing. I played the last one, how she's not renewing her contract and they're renewing. Oh, okay. Yeah. But listen, this, of course, has nothing to do with students, has nothing to do with immigrants. It is, of course, Russia.

1:10:34 The grievances that triggered the riots of the 17th of October originated in France, but were inflamed online by Russian actors. That was the conclusion of NGO Alliance for Europe in their latest report published Tuesday. The group analyzed more than 500,000 social media and news posts, as well as almost 13,000 comments on the most watched videos. They identified a targeted pro-Kremlin operation, in part aided by the Doppelganger Disinformation Network, which published more than 600 coordinated posts in the six weeks leading up to the 17th of October.

1:11:13 The operations aim to amplify discontent, shift the narrative to pro-Kremlin talking points, and stir up anti-Ukraine and anti-EU sentiment. In the aftermath, Russian actors have continued to pick up and distort narratives online. The pro-Putin network Pravda has published a thousand articles about the riots, 78% of them after the event, according to Alliance for Europe. For French President Emmanuel Mercon, it's a problem that extends beyond Russia. Speaking in Doha on Wednesday, he criticized foreign leaders for manipulating the protests in particular to cast blame on migrants or Islam.

1:11:56 There has been foreign manipulation of information in the aftermath, yes. And that has led to comments that are as unacceptable as they are stupid from many people, including foreign leaders. That is to say, we've seen AI-generated images depicting scenes that never actually happened in France. We've had people claiming that we were invaded by hordes of migrants and Islamists. No, it's all just Russian bots. It's not true. Don't believe your lion eyes. And everything around Europe, same thing. And why do you think Russia would want to amplify social unrest here in France? Is it part of a wider European campaign here?

1:12:34 I think we need to see this very much as part of information warfare, as part of the hybrid warfare that is being waged by Russia against NATO countries because they see the geopolitical threat to Putin's regime and as part of an overarching operation to essentially degrade our democracies, our societies, to increase instability, and as such, you know, decrease resolve to support Ukraine or to be united as democracies to be able to export the kind of autocracy that Putin runs in Russia

1:13:14 further afield. Now, I'll be the first to say that it could be any intelligence agency fueling anything. It could be us for all of us. It could be somebody's grockbot. Easily. Easily. But all of this is the old system dying. That's what's happening. The old oil controlled by the city of London. Notice all these countries have pretty much one thing in common. They have a monarchy. No kings. Yeah, no kings. kings. Well, no kings seems to be the way to go.

1:13:52 And what I've been talking about for over a year, I think is finally happening, the ARC, America, Russia, China, which makes so much sense. Hey, why don't we all just be in charge of our own regions? You know, like Putin, you take care of Eastern Europe, and you got a lot of resources there. We'll buy them from you. We want to have that, you know, make us a best price, a good deal. G, you sit over there, take care of the Pacific, Asia, and the yellow people. And, you know, we'll leave you alone, too. I'm just thinking like Trump now. You know, we're a big customer. I don't think even he would say that. Yeah, no, trust me, he does.

1:14:36 He said that to someone. Hey, JD, let G take care of the yellow people. And then we'll take care of North and South America. We're already doing that. You know, we got Venezuela under control. We got to do something with Brazil. Let's send our advanced team. Yeah, let's get Peter Thiel down there with his kids. You know, this is. And then Europe, yeah, I don't know. The problem is Canada. It is a fait de compli. Canada will have to play ball with us, or they're going to be stuck with this imaginary, you know, best friend BFF of Europe. This is the change. This is what I don't think people see or want to see or even care to see. And it's not 5D chess. It's out in the open. And so this is now starting to take shape.

1:15:20 President Trump now saying he is open to meeting Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping, but expected a meeting to focus on denuclearization efforts Sunday night. Oh, there's that too. That'll help. Journal reported that Putin has suggested the three leaders gathered half of the way to end the Russia-Ukraine war. Now, President Trump suggested a meeting could take place without Vladimir Zelensky, and the Ukraine president expects to meet with U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff in Norway today. Tensions between Trump and Zelensky, of course, have ramped up recently, centered in large part on Ukraine's accusations that the U.S. has paused intelligence sharing and throttled Starlink's military internet service.

1:16:00 President Trump told reporters he doesn't know who ordered the Starlink interruption, but he wants to find out. He added that Russia, in his words, has been fine on Ukraine. Yeah, Elon, squeeze that thing a little bit. Let him know that we're watching. Squeeze, squeeze, squeeze that a little bit. Slow it down a bit. And so now you see all the old lizard people are coming out, like Thom Tillis, Republican from North Carolina. Putin is playing President Trump like a fiddle, and history is not going to look good on an America that failed to rise up and defend the Western world. Everyone's so concerned with history. It's like you're on the wrong side of history.

1:16:41 History this, history that. Putin actually gets to the same. So they burn down historical buildings. Yeah, exactly. And I believe that a summit with Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin countries who want to overwhelm the world is absurd. How's that working out for him? China doesn't want to overwhelm us. We're the customer. So when Trump says today, and I quote him again, Russia, frankly, has been fine on Ukraine. They haven't been doing much. And the same thing with China. Haven't been doing much. What do you even say to that? Look, when I was in Kharkiv, when we left Cave and we went to Harkib, we were the first delegation to be allowed to travel that far out.

1:17:22 And of course, the State Department had a warning to us soon because we were able to track some of the Russian drones that were in the air, and they were staying away from us. The point was they were everywhere. They were dropping. They're dropping on. We went in the ride to Kharkiv, we saw nothing but devastated civilian grocery stores, gas stations. We saw schools. Look, he is a murderer and not doing a lot. What does that mean? He only killed 20 or 30 people a day versus 1,000? I mean, my God, one life is too many at the hands of Vladimir Putin, and President Trump should know better.

1:18:01 Here's Tom Nichols. He understands what's going on. You know, we can speculate about why it is. I think it's because he lives in a world where he thinks he's one of several mafia dons. And people like Putin and Xi are other heads of big families, and he wants to get along with them, and he craves their respect because he's basically an insecure and weak man who is intimidated by stronger men. But, you know, in terms of what we can do about it, not much unless there's a revolt within the Republican Party or unless enough Republicans are gone

1:18:41 in January. But, you know, again, January is a. is a long time. And I think that this is going to be really a difficult time for Ukraine because America and Russia are basically, at least the American government under Donald Trump is allied with Putin's government. I don't think Americans, you know, I think Michael's absolutely right. I mean, this is a deeply unpopular thing. Most Americans of both parties are in favor of opposing Russia here. No. But Trump has made this very personal calculation for his own reasons and for his own interests to ally with Russia. There I go again. Yeah. More of that. Where it just makes so much sense.

1:19:27 This stupidity. Oh, the lizard, our own lizard people started this nonsense in 2014 in Ukraine. And then we helped kick it off in 2022 with the full-scale invasion. And the Europeans, they oh man, I wasn't ready for it. Hold on. Here we go. I've got a tax curve on my mind. Yeah. Hey, do you think it's a problem to have my truck running inside the shop here while I'm doing this? If you get woozy, just let me know. Get woozy for my dog's farts and taxi. God, he's letting them rip. What kind of dog is it?

1:20:11 He's a half whippet and a half border collie. So he's super smart and super fast. So the EU wants war. In fact, wait a minute. That was quite the transition. Yeah, well, the EU wants war. I was still there. I was still there. Where's Ursula? Hold on. Ursula had something weird to say. Now I can't find it. Ursula. What is this? Is this the one? The tectonic plates. Oh, yeah. This is another Russia did it. This summer we witnessed the tragic scenes in Cyota.

1:20:55 And we have seen how Russia and Belarus have weaponized migration. State and non-state actors are deliberately engineering mass movements of people. Of course, the goal is clear. They want to overwhelm authorities. They want to spread fears. They want finally to divide us. They will not succeed. So this is the little piece of Spain down there where everyone went around the fence and then invaded this small town. So she's saying, oh, there was the Russians. The Russians did that. It was the owners. Everything's the Russians. Everything is the Russians. It's just crazy. So they want war.

1:21:40 And of course, none of these kids want to go to war. They don't want to do that. But here is the General Walker, General Sir Roly Walker, talking to the troops. This went somewhat viral. You didn't know this, but our nation is going to need you. There was a time that our nation didn't want to think of a time when it would need its soldiers to fight in a war. Indeed, very soon, the political leaders of this country will start to have a frank conversation

1:22:23 with the citizens. What's going on in the background? They're moving their one tank around. They are beeping construction things back. Who is this? This is the general addressing the troops. He couldn't like, hey, everybody shut up while I addressed the troops. Well, no, this was quite unset. This wasn't supposed to be broadcast everywhere, but someone filmed it. Of this country about just what is going on and where the risk lies. They're going to try and explain to our citizens that our citizens have got to consent to sacrifices to prioritize defense and security.

1:23:08 There it is. And then they're going to ask those citizens for whom we are not necessarily at the front of their mind that they too need to play a part in the defense and security of this country. So they need to understand what we do for them. They need to consent to allow us to do that, which means sacrifices by them. And ultimately, we're going to need them to back up. back us, to back you, to do the one thing that you do that nobody else gets to do, and that is to take the fight to the end.

1:23:50 Yeah, that's, I guess that's kill them. That's the heg Seth of the UK. Do the what? So, um, uh, Major General Tim Cross, now he's he did some interviews that we can actually understand, and they're preparing, they're getting ready for it. Meanwhile, the front page of Today's Times reveals hundreds of British troops will head to Poland next month to rehearse deploying to Ukraine in the event of a ceasefire. It's the first exercise of its kind aimed at preparing for a post-war situation in the country involving European boots on the ground. Well, Major General Sir Tim Cross is a retired British Army officer and military logistics expert. Good morning. Good morning, Kim. When we heard from General Serroly Walker, they're saying that the public were going to have to be able to make sacrifices.

1:24:34 What did you take him to be meaning? Tell you, send your kids to war. What else do you think it means? Well, he's quite right to raise the issue. I mean, it's been discussed, you know, in various ways over the last few months. The new battle space today is not primarily technological, technological. It's society. The decisive contest is not over capability alone stuff, but over confidence. And the battle space extends from the front line to the family living room. People need to get a sense of the fact that, you know, society's going to be involved in all of this. And that resilience is about how do we as a society absorb shocks, sustain our will to continue the fight and preserve our identity and so on, to continue to act effectively in pursuit of our own interests and values.

1:25:18 So confidence is a strategic asset, and society is involved in the totality of that, and the whole of society is involved in that. So military resilience and society's resilience are inseparable from one another. So what Rodney's trying to do is to say, we have got military capability and we can come onto the training in Poland, you know, we can have a conversation about whether that military resilience and capability is sufficient. But alongside that, we've got to build society's resilience as well. Strong armed forces can't compensate for a weak society that doesn't have the confidence to continue, you know, the fight in inverted commas. They're going to fold within seconds. This is so sad

1:26:00 that's happening. Meanwhile, in the U.S., Gen Z enlistment in armed forces 15-year high. The military says Gen Z is helping boost its enlistment numbers to a 15-year high. And some young service members are pitching the military as the ultimate financial life hack. No college debt in the military. I wanted to know whether that was driving young people to enlist. So I spoke with some Gen Z Army recruits and aspiring Marines to find out. My first option was definitely college. There were talks about veterinary, maybe law enforcement that I just saw. A lot of our people are going to be taking up debt from a lot of their careers and whether that's college.

1:26:44 And I saw that the military pays for that. How old are you, Lucy? I'm 19. And I didn't want to waste my time just waiting around or just doing school, ending up in debt or anything. So I'm glad to be a part of the reserves program because I can still go down a path of law enforcement while getting good education and getting all my stuff paid for. It doesn't leave me in a difficult situation. Gen Z is coming of age at a tough time to start a career. With college tuition on the rise and the U.S. job growth slowing sharply over the last year, it is much harder for recent graduates to land a job. They're eager to join. You know, they want to know the opportunities and the benefits that the Army has to offer. I can speak from personal experience and how I benefited through education benefits,

1:27:28 financial benefits and stuff like bonuses and all that. But money is only part of the appeal. For some recruits, the draw is much harder to put a price on. For Gen Z, it's to have real-life interactions with others and to have purpose and meaning offline. It's not really the benefits are why I'm joining. It's just to be with like a brotherhood. I just want a different pace in my life. I want to do something hard. Yeah. Now you're talking. Yeah, Merc. Yeah, these kids aren't. They're pretty smart to be doing that, whether it's the military or something else.

1:28:03 You see, like some companies are starting to, like, Palantir, starting to recruit kids before they go to college so they don't get indoctrinated at college. So they're grabbing smart kids out of high school and hiring them straight in. And the military has always been a great path for people. That's what I did. It was a great opportunity for me. I didn't go to college. I couldn't afford to go to college. So I went into the military and that was the start of my. four years? I was in the Coast Guard. Coast Guard. Did you actually sail? Did they get on a ship? I was at a small boat station, so we did search and rescue and law enforcement.

1:28:45 Oh, and did you shoot anybody? No, I didn't shoot anybody. We were known as the humanitarian service, although we did a lot of law enforcement. The Coast Guard or a small boat station is like the Baywatch department. Like Baywatch? A little bit, but we're not sitting on the beach. We're out on the boats. Do you feel that your experience, your four years in the Coast Guard, that that contributed to your skills as a crack producer? 100%. Just the life in general.

1:29:22 If I hadn't gone into the military, I would have been a total screw-up. I mean, it's good for, you know, I went in, I was 18, and I was a bit of an idiot as a kid. And it's nice. We all were. But the countries where it's mandatory, I'm not saying it should be mandatory in the U.S., but the countries where it is mandatory, I see the value in that. And it gets people more disciplined and more mature and ready for life. What do you want for your daughter? She's 14 now. So what would you like to see her? Yeah, this has been, it's just going because she's all set on going to Harvard or MIT or something.

1:30:07 Oh, no. Oh, no. Yeah, I know. But she doesn't, you know, she can, she's, she's, I mean, obviously, my daughter, so I'm going to be biased, but she's pretty smart and doesn't fall for a lot of, you know, the indoctrination that kind of happens. And she's homeschooling right now. For the last two years, she's been homeschooling. And, but she'll go back to high school. She'll start high school next year at a public school. But she does want to, she's hell-bent on going to college, so I can only be supportive of her. I've sort of tried to tell her that you don't necessarily need to do that.

1:30:48 What does she want to be? What does she want to be when she grows up? It changes. It varies. So right now she's writing. I've really pushed her. She's mentioned acting and directing a couple of times. I'm just like, look, you cannot. Oh, no. Because her mother is still in the business. Her mother's a costume designer. She was the costume designer of House of Cards and a bunch of like presumed innocent, a bunch of Apple TV shows. So she's spent a lot of time on set, it's been exposed to that world and then just knows of the stuff that I've done. And like, look,

1:31:27 I've done that. And so I'm telling you, it's not a good path for you to take. My experience with that was Christina, who grew up with show business parents. And then she followed that for quite a long time and, you know, doing reality shows and game shows and influencer stuff. And I remember like it was three years ago. She came here and said, Dad, show business sucks. Uh-huh. Yeah. And then she went back to school and she became a social worker for one flew over the cuckoo's nest with like, you know, 20 crazy dudes.

1:32:02 And she loves it. She's Nurtratchett. She's great at it. And she still does influencer stuff for cash because, you know, obviously you're not going to make a lot of money in the health sector. But yeah, they'll come around. They'll figure it out. The indoctrination is the scary part, though. That's worrying. Yeah, that's the biggest issue and concern that I have with it. But she's super smart. So she'll figure it out one way or the other. And there's still times, another four years before she starts getting into where she's going to whatever school we're going to be doing. And she's big into animals. So she's talking about being a veterinarian. But again,

1:32:43 she's young. It'll change 10 more times. Tell her she can get a gig on the Adam Curry movie as co-producer. Yeah, yeah. She can be like a gaffer or something. We're doing all AI. No one's showing up for any shoot, man. I can't say it because she does do an anonymous podcast. So I can't promote it, though, because then I will blow her cover. But it's a literature podcast because she's a big reader. She reads some books. And yeah, I'm not going to encourage her to be a podcaster. Hey, hey, hey, hey. It's a decent living kind of, I guess. Yeah. And I actually have done a couple things with her to try to push her to more entrepreneurial type of things.

1:33:29 We have. She's. using Grockbot? Is she using bots at all? She's using ChatGPT a little bit. She did get accused at school for using AI. And so she had to do an after-class video call with the teacher. And because he thought her report, because she's a really well-read and writes really well and uses words that I don't even know the meaning of. And so in some of her reports that she does for school.

1:34:06 And there was one in particular where the teacher thought that it was done in AI, so kept her after and did a video call with her after and realized as he was asking her questions that it wasn't AI. She's just smart. She's that smart and uses words like the one she used in the report, like anti-disestablishmentarianism. Yeah, she doesn't use that, but remember that was a thing when we were kids. Like, what's the longest word in the dictionary? Bet you don't know that, huh? Yeah, I do. It's anti-disestablishmentarianism. No, it's not. It's super cataphragilistic expialidocious. You're wrong. We're not of the same generation, so that wasn't happening when I was in school. Oh, okay. All right. Thanks.

1:34:52 You try to say you're part of Jen. I am the face of Gen X, boy. The face of Gen X. Yes, I'm the face of Gen X. So luckily, she's not growing up to be one of these women. Drama at the WNBA finals. Both teams find themselves taking heat for walking off the court before the singing of the national anthem twice. You can see the Golden State Valkyries and the Atlanta Dream heading for the locker room last night in game two in San Francisco. It happened just before Alanis Morissette began singing the Star-Spangled Banner. By the dawn early.

1:35:33 Immediately after the anthem, both teams return to the court. It isn't clear why the teams chose to walk off the court in the past. It has been seen as a protest surrounding social justice issues, but neither the team nor the league have offered explanation for the new walkout. This is just ridiculous. Back-to-back nights when you have more viewers than you might ever have, and you walk out on our national anthem show disrespect to the men and women of our military. Alanis Morissette didn't seem bothered by the walkout, posting her excitement to see the game. But I had the privilege of singing the anthem. I came for the anthem and I stayed for the women.

1:36:20 Thank you. This is such this is so dumb. This is so hurtful for the franchise. I mean, WNBA finally has some. I think so. Is it, though, because I'm hearing more and more and more about the WNBA than I ever have because of all these controversies? Well, no, but because of the fighting. No, the fighting and all that. And it's kind of exciting to watch. It's keeping them in the headlines. Maybe you don't want to get back to throwing the dildos out onto the court. That was cool, but we don't want to do this. This is still America. Come on, girls. No. Go play in France. Oh, I don't like that.

1:37:02 I don't like it at all. That bothers me. You're here because of America. Where's the big basketball league in Europe? Yeah. No, you can participate in the Eurovision Song Contest. No. Anyway, I'm a little bit concerned. I'm a little bit concerned about you for this winter. Me? Yes, yes, for El Niño. I'm actually, oh, yeah. I actually got to open the door to my truck. It's getting hot in here. Okay, you do that while I play this. Play this clip. A super El Nino is blowing into town, and it could make this upcoming winter especially brutal in many parts of the U.S.

1:37:41 Everything from sudden, unpredictable storms to bursts of warmer weather in some unlikely places. What is a super El Niño? Why is it happening? And how will your region be affected? I'm Mike Bettis. I'm an on-camera meteorologist at the Weather Channel. We're talking. Hi, I'm Adam Curry. I'm an off-camera podcaster here at the No Agenda Show. What is this? I'm an on-camera meteorologist. That's kind of pathetic. Didn't be affected. I'm Mike Bettis. I'm an on-camera meteorologist at the Weather Channel. We're talking El Niño and winter. This year, we're anticipated to have a Super El Niño. It's a term we've really never used before. And what it equates to is an El Niño that is the highest in recorded human history.

1:38:24 And so the war. warming of the Pacific waters is greater than any time we've ever experienced. So, what you generally have is El Niño, warm Pacific waters, neutral, average Pacific waters, or La Niña, cooler Pacific waters. Sometimes El Niño isn't present at all, and sometimes El Niño is really, really strong. And the opposite can happen for La Niña. And in both instances, they can have effects on global weather patterns. In this particular instance, El Niño is going to be likely the greatest, warmest El Niño we've ever seen. And this can happen in cycles, but inevitably, one of the basic things that we'll look at as to why this El Niño is so strong is how much has climate change, global warming, affected the intensity of El Niño.

1:39:09 And it's likely playing a much larger role today than it did in years or decades or centuries past. Okay, so to be affected will be California, granted, mainly Southern California, but they talk about all four corners of California. So what will winter look like? We're going to get it up here as well. Yeah, oh, for sure. You're wondering here in the U.S. And we can base this off of. Pause it for a second. I got to let my dog out. I'll be right back. Okay. Do you want me to just walk around and just be right back? Come in. Hold up. Okay. What are you doing? Can't he just open the back door? He has to go out of the out of the shop. He's tired of the heat in the shop.

1:39:52 Oh, man. I'm just going to edit here. It's not very professional. Walk off set in the middle of the show. Dude. Do you have to walk to the other side of the mansion? We'll do it live. Exactly. I'm going to edit all this out. I knew I couldn't cover for, I mean, just for a second to let the dog pee, but this is kind of ridiculous.

1:40:36 Yes. Yeah, but see, John had the noise makers. Dana got all of John's noise makers, though. I don't have the noise makers. Holy crap. Are you still alive? Hello? Wow. Well, I can do a bit more. What happened? Oh, how far did you have to go? Dude, he was farting in here. I was worried I was going to have a huge thing. I had to let him out of the shop. Okay, I'll continue with my clip. Higher El Niño events, especially stronger El Niño events, plus knowing what the global patterns tend to do during this time of year and then within El Niño.

1:41:16 So what that means is El Niño this winter will likely be most profound on the West Coast and then in our southern states. And what that means, we're probably going to have a very active southern branch of the jet stream, which stays very wet, very active. So the southwest U.S. in particular, Southern California, but maybe the four corners as well could see very significant precipitation this winter. For Southern California, in previous strong El Niño years, we've had major atmospheric river events, and that tends to lead to massive flooding. This could be a high-impact event. I would say, especially in Southern California, and as you get into Arizona, these might be locations where we get a tremendous amount of rain.

1:41:59 And especially in California, I think that's going to have disastrous consequences if disastrous consequences. Are you guys prepared for the Super El Niño? Yeah, I am. I have my, hopefully, it'll fill up my swimming in my lake. No, I have a there's a pond and a lake here, and we're building it. I'm actually, the one dries out a lot. And so this year, we're going to hopefully be stocking a lot of water. I just built a big, big dock that goes out onto the lake. I went back with the robot, it's actually become very easy to find this. I went back to, let me see, what is it? This is from

1:42:42 No Agenda episode 1181. So that's quite a long time ago. So that's 800 episodes ago, 900 episodes ago. And I finally found, because I looked for this clip before, but now the robot found it real quick. The 1860 Brewer Diary. Have you ever heard that? Have you ever heard that? No. Okay. So this related to climate change was a big deal back then. Everything's, you know, we got mudslides and we got earthquakes and we got fires and it's all climate change. But no, California has always been a hellscape. As I say, it's just, it's. sounds like just a typical year in California. It has always been a hellscape.

1:43:25 Let me get my harp. I should get my harp. I need the harp. Where's my harp? Oh. Okay. Well, just imagine I played a harp. But here's the thing: these fires are not global warming. This is not something new to California. And I recite from the 1860 diary from a young botanist raised in New York, schooled in Connecticut, who found himself on the payroll of the newly formed California Division of Mines and Geology.

1:44:02 His job, William Brewer, this is, was to roam the vast new state of California in 1860, take samples and make observations of plant and animals. And I recite. Over four years journeying across California, I've witnessed torrential rains that turned the Central Valley into a vast white-capped lake, intolerable heat waves that made the fats of our meats run away in spontaneous gravy, violent earthquakes, and fires I could only describe as great sheets of flames extending over acres. It has always been hell.

1:44:44 There we go. Always been hell. Well, it's not, I mean, you could think that sometimes with the fires and the flooding and all earthquakes and everything else, but it is a pretty beautiful place to live otherwise. You take away the traffic. Well, I guess that's why you have a full self-driving car. That's why you have a flying car. Where I live, dude, there's no climate traffic. Not on the rain. I mean, we have hot summers and mild winters, but there's no traffic. There's nothing like that. There's nothing. There's nothing. There's nothing there.

1:45:29 As my wife, my wife describes it because everyone is like, where do you guys live? You live. Where did you get that much acreage? You got a leak and a pond and horses. How do you do that? You're in the middle of nowhere. And my wife always puts it, it's 15 minutes from Sephora and five minutes from Starbucks. Oh, well, Sephora. And she goes to LA, it would take me 30 minutes to get to either of those. That is rather important that you're near Sephora. I get that. I get that. You get that? I don't, but I know a female would. No, Sephora is important, man. Yeah, it's very important.

1:46:06 What do you use? What are you getting at Sephora? No, this is where all the women go. They go to the rim, the rim in San Antonio to go to Sephora. How far is Sephora from where you're at? Oh, no, it's farther from than you. No, we got to go far. How far is Starbucks from you? Oh, we have one right on the out. We don't allow any chain stores in the city. No, you're one of those places. Yeah. All right. So how far is Starbucks from you? Six minutes. All right, so not bad. Does Amazon come to you? Yes, Amazon comes to me. Although sometimes, I don't know if you get this, sometimes, like, depending on the driver, they'll leave it at the beginning of the driveway.

1:46:47 They don't bring it up to the door. Oh, I hate it when they do that. No, that's no good. I got it set up where on my gate. My driveway is almost a mile from the road. It has a rest stop halfway. Yes, I've heard about this. There are some stops. But I have a thing on the gate connected to Amazon. So when they show up. Oh, it opens up for them? They can hit a thing and it'll open the gate up for them. And you know what you can do? Well, at least here, they have to put the package at a specific spot where it won't allow them to take the photo to prove that they delivered it.

1:47:29 Oh, that's interesting. Yeah. You don't have that there? Well, they have to take the photo. Yeah. But I don't think there's a specific spot. No. Because a couple of times they were like trying to put it down on the lower part of the house and take a photo and it wouldn't. And the lady explained it to me. He's like, no, we have to be within the circle before they can allow them to take the photo so they know that it was delivered to the right place. It was definitely an Amazon package, but I don't know who, because often they have civilians. I get introduced to civilian Amazon drivers. And it's about to start up. Here's a public service for people because it's about to start up again with the holidays.

1:48:12 They bring in those contractors that. aren't in Amazon. They're in their own private vehicles. And in areas like where I live and maybe where you live, people get a problem because people get shot. Yeah, because they show up here on a property and you're driving around like, who, who is this? What are they doing on the property? I chased one lady out of here one time and stopped her at my gate. I drove in front of her and stopped her because she was like driving around the property. I didn't know what was up. I was holding her up to the gate and she jumped out holding up her badge. She didn't have a vest or anything on it, holding up her badge, going, I'm Amazon, I'm Amazon, I'm Amazon. Oh, that's great. That's great. Yeah, dangerous. No, I mean, even when my septic guy comes, he texts me.

1:48:57 We're going to be on the property just letting you know. I said, okay, the dog's locked up and the guns are safe, so you're okay. They're out and ready. Yeah, always. Quick little show business thing because I'm interested in your take on this because of the world that we live in where everything is changing so quickly. To a generation of viewers, Netflix has been Must Watch TV, the juggernaut behind hits like Stranger Things, Wid Game, and Wednesday. But this morning, the streaming giant is hoping new leadership can reassure anxious investors and re-engage American viewers.

1:49:36 On an earnings call Tuesday, co-CEO Ted Sarandos telling investors the company's position is strong, but said growth in the United States has been disappointing. There's no need for a fundamental shift in the strategy. We do need better execution in the U.S. Last week, Netflix abruptly laid off about a thousand employees, roughly 6% of its workforce, including several top creative executives. We have a responsibility to make hard trade-offs in service of our members, our partners, our employees, our investors, and ultimately our long-term growth. And that was the simple thinking behind it. The moves come with Netflix's stock down more than 25% in 2026 and more than 40% since last year when it launched an unsuccessful bid to take over Warner Brothers Discovery.

1:50:24 Do they basically just need better movies and better TV shows? Or is there something more secular happening to the way we consume entertainment? Like the rest of Hollywood, Netflix is struggling to keep viewers from spending more and more time watching YouTube and TikTok. Well, now every media company has a streaming service. What Netflix does isn't really special. And the thing that's really disrupting entertainment now is short-form video. Netflix's top executives point to a wide range of new offerings from podcasts to NFL games and other sports, along with a full slate of theatrical releases, including Brett Gerwig's upcoming film Narnia, the Magician's Nephew. But this morning, some analysts wondering if Netflix still holds the power it once did in Hollywood.

1:51:08 All right. You're ultimately very qualified to talk about this. What do you think is going on here? Well, I mean, there's quite a few things that are going on. One, the content they've been making, they suffer the same issue that a lot of studios and places have been making. It's overly woke, bland, you know, just PC crap, and there's nothing edgy or interesting or entertaining, frankly. They're trying to tick boxes as opposed to make stuff that's truly entertaining. That's part of it. There's also just so many services.

1:51:48 Stop there for a second. What do you think the audience wants right now? What is it that they really want to see? Well, the audiences want to see a diversity of things, but not diversity in the way of, oh, we have to put, it's got to be a trans story and it's got to have a black person and it's got to have a female in this role. Is it really still like, I mean, I was watching The Diplomat new season. Yeah, I need to check that out. The new season that's sort of last week. Yeah, no, there are shows like that that are good, but I had a I don't know if I told this story already, but I was working on a project at Universal and

1:52:33 one of the directors of a husband and wife directing teams never got made, so you might not know who it was, but she was insistent. It was a true story that I was doing with I had gotten the rights initially with Mike DeLuca, who's a who just left Warner Brothers and who will probably spend more time with his family. No, I think he has a he will likely end up at Netflix because I need somebody like him to come in and start redoing some of their movies. But that's the rumor. We'll see. see what happens. He can't entertain. Movies or TV?

1:53:12 Because I think the biggest problem is what changed, you know, we just finally finished the West Wing, all seven seasons, 22 episodes a season. Is it this change where they've kind of gone from making, well, first of all, the multi-camera sitcom. I miss that. I think it's too bad that they kind of got rid of that. But now it's like hour-long, eight episodes. I mean, is that the right product? Well, there's hour-long eight episodes, but what you're watching with the 22 episodes also had commercials. I know. No, I understand that. But still, 22 episodes.

1:53:54 I mean, even if you break it down and make it, you know, I guess it was. 16. Yeah. Yeah. It's still double what we're seeing now. But is that a format that I mean, is that what people want? Is the binging a problem? Is the variety of problems? The attention span of people in the audience has changed dramatically since the West Wing. That was, you know, appointment viewing TV. So people, they, you know, before DVRs or streaming, you know, you had to be there at 8 o'clock when it started and you got up to get a drink or go to the bathroom during a commercial and then you had to rush back before the end of the commercial.

1:54:37 So that the technology changes have changed viewing changes. And then you have things like YouTube where people, you know, they just are Instagram or X or they're just jumping from one thing to another. This is the mistake that I think they're about to make. It's like, well, you hear it in the report. Short form video. And then before you know, we get quiby. You know, it's like, no, that's not what people want. No, well, what was in what was it? What was the argument for short-form video? Yeah, well, that's what the report said, which I'm sure is a wall. No, I think they're referring to what I was just talking about, like people just doom scrolling from one video to the next on Instagram or X or, you know, so people are so used to that.

1:55:23 I find myself a lot of times when I'm sitting in front of a TV show, if I start losing interest, I'm on my phone scrolling and watching different, completely different videos on my phone while something is on the TV. I end up putting a TV on now more just for background noise while I'm doing things on the phone. And usually when I'm high on gummies, there's the Sonos kicks on at five and it's playing, and then I have the TV on, and then my phone is playing something, and my wife comes in and goes, there is too much going on. Turn something off. And then I realize, like, oh, you're right. So that's kind of my point, though. Hasn't the audience taste changed so much that we're just really not interested anymore?

1:56:08 And there's so many. I mean, I had my robot go through all my subscriptions, canceled half of them. Like, why am I even subscribed to this? Because Peacock, because I wanted to see the Eurovision Song contest. Yeah, that's what's happening is they get one good show, and then so you subscribe for that one show, and then you forget to cancel it, or hopefully they get another show. Netflix was the place that had everything first. Now there's all these where you could go and do that on demand. Now there's 15 or however many different streaming services with subscriptions.

1:56:50 And so like I'll get Paramount Plus to watch Yellowstone or whatever, you know, the Landman, the new season of that, and I'll leave it and not cancel it. And then I'll have, I'll get Hulu to watch, you know, some movie that's on it that everyone's talking about and then not cancel it. And what this is going to be a problem for services like this is what you just said. People are having, and that's one of the big things is they're having bots go through and find subscriptions that they're no longer using and then cancel them. It's like HBO when they had the Sopranos, people would subscribe to HBO at the start of the season of Sopranos, when this is when they were doing it weekly.

1:57:35 And then at the final episode of Sopranos, then cancel it and then not renew their subscription until the following two years later when the new season started. I think the part of the big problem is that Wall Street quality quality. No, I think the issue is different. Wall Street viewed Netflix as a technology company and now they're just another media. media company. And so, you know, they can't grow the same way. They may not get the same multiple. It's just like, they're just a streamer.

1:58:16 You don't think so? Because they make profits. They're making profit. I mean, that's fine. It's just a lot of people. But the profit has to, it has to be better than the last time every time. That's the trap that every public company gets into. If they don't, you know, continue to grow as much or better than they did last quarter, then you're not doing something right. As opposed to just staying steady and consistent and putting out good product, they have to, you know, that's that's where Wall Street starts to affect things. I'm hoping that Wall Street will start to correct some of the quality issues that we're seeing and it will go away from this woke nonsense.

1:58:59 Is it really still there? Is the woke content still there? I'm not seeing it on Netflix. I don't see it that much. Maybe you just got your algorithm a little more tuned in. But honestly, I don't know because I'm watching less and less TV and you're doom scrolling. You're on X. You're on X, Doom Scrolling. I'm on gummies. I love Elon. Doom scroll me, Elon. Doom scroll me. I love it. And honestly, you're a young man. Aren't you sick and tired of just sitting on the ranch? Aren't you ready to do something? Aren't you ready to get out there and go conquer the world again?

1:59:41 And deal with having be briefed about, oh, hey, when we talk to his executive, they're they, them, and make sure you don't address them. No, you can do other things. You can do other things. Well, that's why I'm doing a Curry documentary. And then that, but until the point you tell me, so I get on some executive I've talked to, like, oh, hey, they're they, them. Uh, make sure that you that's when we quit. So hold on a second. But this is a good point because you did quit. Now I'm feeling like, will my docu movie, what do we, what category? What do we call this? A docu movie? Uh, it's not, uh, it's a documentary. Is it really a documentary is equals no money?

2:00:22 Yeah, this is how I've told you this from the get-go. I thought you were going to make 50 cents on it. Oh, I didn't realize that. This is no good. What kind of exit strategy is this? Make no money. It's not a good one. Well, there must be. It's not a good one. We should we do it just value for value, maybe? I mean, did you see? Wait, actually, not a bad idea. I went to the movies for the first time since my own movie, Gran Turismo, which when I screened out here when Dvorak came out to the theater to see it. And I went and saw the Elizabeth Holmes documentary. Yeah. You can see everything or whatever it is.

2:00:58 Everyone was going on and on and on about it. It was good, but it's definitely overhyped. But there is an interesting aspect in it about whether the guy got paid or not and the ethical issues around that and him being the subject of it. So, of course, my mind went, well, I guess we can't pay Curry. Way! We're going to have to give all the money to Tina. No, that's fine. It's a bio pic. It's a bio pic. That's the term I was looking for. Bio pick. Isn't it a biopic? No, it's not a biopic. A biopic would be like. It's a documentary. That would be like Jamie Fox playing Ray Charles, or that's a biopic.

2:01:42 It's like Kid Says in the Picture. That's a documentary. That's a groundbreaking film. It's a film. It's cinema. All right, we'll call it a film. And we should we won't refer to it as a documentary anymore. We need to shoot it on. We need a hook. We need an edge. We need like, you know, we shot it on film. Yeah. 16 millimeters. It's going to be all done via AI. That's our hook. So as a producer, value for value. You're not really pushing me very hard on this thing. That's the point. I'm not pushing you very hard on what? To get it done, to get it going. I mean, if you're really, you don't see it. Yeah, I'm waiting on you to finish the book.

2:02:18 Okay. Okay. So finish the book, and then we'll go from there. Then we got to get the script. We got to get Scaramonga in here and our AI guy, Scaramonga, Comic Strip blogger. Call him now when he CSP on the comic strip blogger is asking me to do his podcast. No, no. He wants me to do his podcast. He said I'll be the first person to get to hear his actual voice. Oh, I can do his actual voice. I met him in person. He's a lovely man. He's a lovely man. He came to see me in London when he could still travel. I'll tell him that you and I will do his.

2:03:00 podcast together. Oh, that's a good idea. I'll tell you this. When comics or blogger is in your community, you have a successful community. This guy is one of the most, in fact, he is worthy of a documentary. He is one of the most interesting trolls. And he doesn't like it when I call him a troll, but he is very interesting how he always goes against everything. Then, you know, I'm not allowed to talk about where he started because he gets really mad. But he's been in technology space before there were smartphones. Let's put it that way. And he would get kicked out of conferences because he would ask really uncomfortable questions.

2:03:44 He actually would be. We're putting a Curry documentary on hold. No, whoa. Turn all the guns to comic vlogger. I'm telling you, the guy is a story. The guy is a story that would be super interesting. But after that'll be our sophomore. That's part of that part of the extra strategy. That's our extra strategy. We've got to set up a whole network, a whole studio, and we'll do documentaries on all of the crazy nation. Let me tell you, let me tell you, man, there's some interesting people in there. Very, very interesting people in Noah Genda Nation. All right, you've got clips left over, so I want to let you choose whatever you want to play here.

2:04:29 Let's see, I got a local one here that is, you know, how everybody's always talking about, you know, ICE. Hey, don't come to 321 Main Street. It's where my mother-in-law is, and, you know, she's an illegal. You know, definitely don't, ICE, definitely don't come there. Well, play this local ICE. A Sacramento County man is accused of killing his wife, then claiming ICE agents took her. Deputies say Jasmine Gill was last seen September 30th. Wow. Her husband, Gorinder Gill, seen there on your screen, allegedly told investigators ICE agents detained her while she was checking the mail. But ICE says that never happened. Investigators say the couple was going through a divorce and child custody back.

2:05:11 Jasmine's burned remains were found in El Dorado County. Her husband was arrested Wednesday on murder charges and is now being held without bail. Whoa. Yeah, so I heard about this: that there was a burned body found on the road, and that's all that I heard, that there was like a burned body found off some road up in wherever in the county where I live. And then as I was going through looking for clips for the show, I found that. And I was like, wow, that was a pretty clever way to try to hide a murder. Say ICE came and took the person you murdered. Wow. Yeah. Don't kill your ex-wife, man. That's not

2:05:53 an exit strategy. No, not at all. It's an extra strategy to prison. No kidding. No kidding. What else? Where do you want to go? You want to go with what's clue? What's clue? What's clue? I see. Oh, we got to do the show for 1914. Oh, no. No, we'll do that in a minute. We're not ready for that. I'm going to do something else. I'm going to have to take a break in a second, too, because I got to go let my dog back in. But why don't you do it when I'm doing donations? Or does the dog, is the dog like whimpering, wants to come in now? Yeah, probably. All right. Well, go. I'll wait. Go get your dog. Oh, you'll wait again. Okay. I'll set a mark. Yeah, edit.

2:06:34 No problem. The curry caster can take care of all of this stuff. It's a badass system. Yeah. Alex J. Also took the opportunity to take a leak myself. Whoa. Well, you shook that one out quick. That went fast. Was it? Yeah, that was pretty fast. Well, it was hurrying. You're putting pressure on me. All right. All right. Where are we going now? I don't know. You brought the clips. All right. Let's go with. Let me look at my clips here. Go with Indian researcher and Indonesian researcher. Okay. Where are you from? I'm from Indonesia, but I live in New York.

2:07:13 You live in New York? Yes. Are you here on a green card? Are you a citizen? No, I'm Dion Fisa. I'm a researcher. Are you able to vote or do you vote? They give me an option. When I, you know, for the first time I came here, they asked me to do SS and NYI and everything. And then they asked me to give an option. Do you want to be a voter or not? Yeah, New York. That's where you live. They don't require voter ID. No, no. Have you voted in New York? Not yet. But yes, I'm still thinking and then see around because I'm new here. But I'm thinking about that. Yeah, I mean, if Trump passes this bill, or if he passes the Save Act, then you're going to have to prove that you're a citizen to vote, and you won't be able to do that.

2:08:00 Yes. So you won't be able to vote. Yeah, yeah. That's why I told you before that everyone can speak up. And then I mean, like, everybody has their own right, right? Yeah, and then they also pay the tax. Like me, even I'm like temporary, I also pay the tax. So I have the right to do some things. Because you're here and other immigrants are here taking part. Yeah, yeah. And they should have the right to vote. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. So, because she's here paying taxes and she should have the right to vote and be able to do all that, correct? In New York, for city elections or for state elections? Whatever. They didn't define what it was, but it's saying Trump is going to take that away from her.

2:08:43 But here's the kicker. Play the second part. Could I go to Indonesia? Is that where you said you're from? Oh, of course. Can I vote? Oh, no. For voters in Indonesia. You need to get citizens. Oh, man. That's God. That's crazy. Sorry. Because they are different. In here, you can get two citizenship, right? But in my country, it's only one citizenship. What if I, you know, I'm an American? I want to go make Indonesia more like America. I want to be able to vote. Yeah, so you need to be natural citizens today. I need to be a citizen there. Sorry about that. Okay. Could I do that? Like, how long does that take? If you are a family of Indonesia, I mean, like, if you were born in Indonesia or you have a family, was born in Indonesia, especially your parents are Indonesian, so you can become a citizenship.

2:09:33 Or if you have talent or something, profession, and then like athlete or researchers, doctor, professional that we need so you can become the citizens. So they have like, yeah, they have a whole process to make sure that people are coming to Indonesia that are going to make Indonesia better. Yes. Yes. And they don't want Americans just flying over there and voting, you know, like that would be crazy, right? Yeah. You should get a gig. You really need to drop the channel. Yeah, I noticed that. My bot messed up there. Yeah, my bot messed up. But like they don't get the hypocrisy. Like it's no, no, they don't. They don't. It's just fascinating to me.

2:10:17 Yeah. Well, yeah. That's the stuff you're posting on X. I see you all the time. Like these people, those people. Am I wrong? No, but you're such a creative, talented guy. I mean, why are you giving that all to Elon for free? Let's do something with that. Forget the Curry documentary. That's going to be your swan song. But, you know, you should be doing something else with your life, man. You don't even read. You don't even read. You can't even read. I don't need to. I just listen to audio on the tractor and just put my headphones in and just go. Well, what should I be doing with my life? I don't know. What are you doing? What am I doing?

2:10:59 Yeah, there was something. I don't know. I just heard some noise thing. Oh, no. I was going to get us into the next segment, but you kept talking, so I paused it real quick. What are you telling me that I need to do something else with my life? No, no, no. No, not something else. Just something. Something. The Golden Cloud Ranch is done. It's all set up. You got your people working. I'm now a steward of the land. You think this place maintains itself? I'm basically like a ranch hand here. I need to get some of these non-voters here helping me. Okay, here we go. Historic checking. It's the year of the show.

2:11:49 Yeah, everybody. This is a segment Dana started. Rob Dew has tried to keep it going, and I keep forgetting about it. We look at the show number and we come up with the historical event that took place in that year since we're in the 1900s. Do I play the clue clip or do I get to guess? Well, this, yeah, so I got a little clue clip for this. So it's the year, this is show 1914, correct? Yeah, I already know what this is. I know 1914. I did take some history in Europe, but let's listen to your. Okay, well, we might need to talk over this clip. It's only three or four seconds. I did it for, you know, so we don't have any licensing issues, but maybe just talk a little bit.

2:12:30 Licensing. It's licensing issues. It's a podcast, man. The only thing that'll happen is they'll take it off spot. Go ahead. All right. Oh, it's a jingle. It's a stinger. Go ahead. All right. I have no idea what that is, but I know that in 1914, Archduke Franz Ferdinand was assassinated. There you go. Well, and the band name of that. Wait, that's

2:13:12 oh man. Who did that Franz Ferdinand? Was that the band? Was that the band? Band's name, Franz Ferdinand. Yeah, I knew that. Yeah, yeah, there I go. Yes, World War I. You did that, Franz Ferdinand. Who did that? Franz Ferdinand. Okay, all right. You're off, Dane. What? You left out. So Franz Ferdinand was assassinated on June 28th in Sarajevo. It started World War I. World War II. World War I. Yeah. No, I knew that. Everyone knows that. Yeah. If you went to school in Europe, you do. Yeah.

2:13:54 We had peak trollage of 896. Usually you break a thousand, usually. That is a little bit too difficult. Yeah, we did too much AI stuff. No, we didn't. No, we didn't. Yes, we did. This is what people want to know our opinion. They're interested. Not everybody. There's a core group that really likes it, but a lot of them hate all the AI talk. But we're here to help them. This is the whole point. Yeah, they don't realize that yet. We're like, we're in the blue helmets. We're here to help them. Well, they're going to hate Sunday when Callacanis is back on because he doesn't know how to talk about anything else. I'm just going to call in. Oh, okay. Yeah, you can use the same link. Yeah, drop in.

2:14:35 Yeah, of course. I'll just drop in and get that shit. Yeah, that'll be fun. Although, I like Calicanus because he's clearly a liberal. He's a closeted liberal. He's such a liberal, but hiding like he's not. I mean, it's. He is waking up a little bit. Look at his. Do you talk about my ex-post? Look at his. The two of you should get a room on X. That's what's going on here. And we can just drool over Elon and AI. And you'll be outside the window peeking in like a bird. There you go. All right. Hold on. We'll be right back, everybody, with donations.

2:15:18 From the core at dawn to the mic at night, we march that line and we keep it tight. JCD in the frame on deck. And Adam Curry bringing fire and respect. No agenda, family, we know the name. Deconstructing the news with the sharpest aim. Rob Dew in the room, Dana on the line. Jason Callicanis and Matt Long in the shine. Guest voices lifting up the show each week. Truth in the rhythm when the listeners speak. 19 years deep, still carving the view. Best media breakdowns, every clip rings true. Best end of show mixes, maybe can. No agenda nation, hear the call. We've been standing through it all 19 years, and still we rise with open ears and honest eyes. Best deconstruction, best we know. Best producers in the world for the best show. Best show jingles every note lands right. Best end of show, ISOs end it tight.

2:16:02 No agenda nation, carry on, carry on. God is calling Adam to the kingdom road. And the weight of that truth is a line bestowed. God is Adam's exit strategy clear and bright. Guiding every step from the dark to light. We don't just listen, we donate time, talent, and treasure. Every segment, every line, everything is measured. Best media deconstruction with a surgeon's hand. Making sense of the noise across the land. Guest hosts join in and the energy climbs. The room keeps moving with the pulse of the times. From the first big hit to the final stream. The whole long run feels like a shared up dream. No agenda nation, hear the call. We've been standing through it all. 19 years and still we rise with open ears and honest eyes. Best deconstruction, best we know. Best end of show mixes in the glow. Best show jingles every note lands right.

2:16:44 Best end of show ice to end it tight. Yeah, no agenda nation, carry on. Best of the best, we say it loud. No agenda, family, take your vow. JCD, Adam Curry, too. Guest host stepping in to carry us through. Rob Q, Dana, Brunetti, Jason, Calicanus, Matt Long, all together now in the final song. 19 years and the bond holds strong with every mix and jingle all along. Yeah. Troll Room reminded me that big event in 1914 was Babe Ruth. Babe Ruth entering the baseball scene. So I'm glad you said that. That's not as big as World War I starting.

2:17:26 It was pretty big. Yeah. Holy crap. This is oh, this is quite outrageous. So for some reason, I'm not sure exactly what's going on, but donations are off the chart today. Well, I know the troll count is down. I just saw that Rob Schneider retweeted my repo. repost or whatever you call it on X. Slashed, re-slashed, whatever you call it. Yeah. Yeah. Which post? Did you think that would bring some people in? Which posts? Which post? Me and the truck or my truck, my truck studio. Have you worked with him with Rob Schneider? No, I know. No, we're buddies, but I had to think for a second. No, we never did. We talked about doing a show, kind of like me and you.

2:18:11 Talk about doing some things. Stuff that'll never happen. Kind of like me and you. Things that we'll talk about forever. Hey, remember when we were young, we talked about that documentary? Yeah. No, you got to get the book and then we get the book and then we're going to get with your with your folks and my folks and get some people. The money people. The money people. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Okay. And then we got to get some people like Scaramanga and we got to get Calicanis and the studio together, figuring out how we're going to distribute this. Yeah. That's the key. Putting it together won't be. I mean, that'll be easy. Okay. It's just how we're going to get it distributed. No, well, this thing called the internet.

2:18:56 Seems well. There is that, but there's marketing and marketing. Marketing. I'll just do some interviews. I'll go on Rogan. Okay, so that'll get 100,000 downloads. What do you think? How many people get what are we selling this thing for? I don't know anything about that. Look, I'm going to finish the book in November. That's my first order of business. November, that's in a week. No, give me the four weeks of November, and I'll be done. I have like 20 chapters. I'm getting there. I'm getting there. Oh, man, you're getting long now. Now we've got to distill it down. Well, okay. And then I have to, before we can release the book, I have to do the audio book. I got to do the audiobook version.

2:19:42 That'll be a bellwether to see how the film does. Who cares? We already know we're not going to make any money on it. You've made that obvious. Documentary. Here's five bucks. All right. We'll do special screenings around the country. That always works. You do documentaries for the love of the game, not for the money. Oh, good. Speaking of how much did Alex Gibney's Musk documentary, didn't that finally release? I'm curious how much it made. I'm sorry. What are you saying? Alex Gibney, the guy who did Enron, The Smartest Guys in the Room. Oh, yeah. And he did the

2:20:24 four-hour Elon documentary. Yeah, I'm curious what it's like. Have you seen it? Have you seen it? No, not yet. Yeah, I'll wait until it's streaming. Thank you very much. Most likely my plan as well. Like I said, I just went to a documentary. It was three hours Elizabeth Holmes one. It didn't seem like that. It seemed that interesting to me. I didn't know about that. It seemed like. The trailer was interesting, but then it got the gimmick kind of wore off, and it was sort of interesting as like I don't know, but people enjoyed it a lot more than I did.

2:21:03 I'm not saying don't go see it. I think people, my expectations were the bar was set too high, which I always hate when I go see a film when everyone's ranting and raving about how great something is because then you're just let down. Yeah. Yeah. Well, let's talk about some donations here because this is, it's off the charts today. Kicking it off with Sir Donald of the Fire Bottles from Spokane Valley, Washington, coming in with $3,333.33 a Rubilizer. Stand by. 33, 33, 33.

2:21:44 Rubelizer out. And he has a note accompanying his donation on United Federation of Planets Starfleet Command Letterhead. Dear Adam and Dvorak family, please find and close my third Rubelizer donation. Reference shows 1667 and 1804. This is my vote of confidence as no agenda continues on minus JCD. John was a polymath. He left behind large shoes that require multiple guest co-hosts to fill. Archduke Sir Donald of the fire bottles from Spokane Valley, Washington. Really appreciate that. And check it out. Coming in with 2,446. He's back. Sironymous of Dog Patch in Lower Slobovia. And let's see.

2:22:30 Where's he been? Yeah, well, I don't know, but let's read his note because he always sends it from my P.O. box and somewhere in the world. And he says, thank you to all the producers for continuing to support this video. valuable source of media deconstruction. Media uses messaging to influence, and Adam's continued commitment to deconstruct what is said and why is important to continue. The barrage of media with its increased ability to target individuals rather than mass media remains a risk to individuals. Media savvy in politics is an important attribute, as we learned during Reagan's eight-year performance. He's showing his age here. Having experienced movie and streaming producer in your deconstruction rotation

2:23:10 and a president and a president that has been a television producer since 2004, Dana Brunetti's insights into the differences between movie streaming and television production, followed by his analysis of Trump's 2016-2020 production series versus his current production beginning 2024, would be enlightening. Aha! So Sir Onymous sees this as a show. What are you seeing as the difference between Trump 1 and Trump 2 from the media perspective? From a media perspective, I mean, Trump is Trump, so it's very

2:23:48 difficult. He is a little bit more polished, I think, this go-around than he was the first go-around, but I'm not sure what he's asking. You can construct a question for me. Well, I think the big difference is in 2016, the run-up, he had Twitter. That was what made him. He had Twitter. And then he got kicked off of everything. And so now he's truth social. It's not quite the same. But I think ultimately his trolling is, that's his brand. The troll is what makes him so interesting. I think he's a little bit more polished with it, though.

2:24:30 He's not as, although, God, no, as soon as I say that, I think back to some of those things he said, not really. Not really. Pretty unhinged, some of it. But yeah, that's, I don't know. I don't have an answer. Sorry. All right. But I think what he's saying is that he doesn't think that you'll be doing a disservice to humanity with you leaving the show. Well, that's clearly what he's saying. I feel bad about it, but he has a pre-election question for local municipalities. Data center, temple, or mosque?

2:25:09 Just wondering if we've returned to the greatest evil in this election. So I was going to say on one of the last shows that I think we should combine data centers and mosques. In one. There's a plan. You know, Sir Onymous is a Muslim, so be careful. He's not coming back. Yeah, that's okay. Finally. He's not coming back. Why is he not coming back? I don't know. Don't insult him. Oh, you mean come back to the show? Yeah, we only have three, two more shows after this. Yeah, you're right. I'm going to miss him. But I'm not looking to insult him anyways. Finally, the effort to dispose of Bin Laden and keep everything secret to reduce risk of visual martyrdom was wise.

2:25:53 Offering a video to undereducated people with deadly revenge and blood feud cultures is feeding the beast. Adam, local murders is one thing. This was political, and it would be unwise. As an American, it will significantly increase my risk where I travel. And my first live political assassination was Lee Harvey Oswald. Man, Onym is older than I thought. Yeah, he's giving up some age. He's a seasoned guy. Hey, you know, we just wanted the TV rights. You know, we never thought about the lives. When we first started that, there was never a live streaming aspect to it. I just wanted the rights to it.

2:26:34 That's not a judgment call one way or the other. But I think that that's pretty sure that the live streaming of the Hassan. No, it's not going to happen. Thank you very much, Sir Onymous. Love you long time. I mean it. James Mulligan, Charlotte, North Carolina. $1,000 with a very long note. Yeah, yeah, yeah. These are some long notes, people. But we'll read it. I've been a longtime listener from the beginning, including daily source code. There you go. A folder for the record. Ah, there you go. We need to ask you, Dana Brunetti, Scruncher or Folder? Hello? Dana? Did I lose Dana?

2:27:17 What happened? Let me see. Did we lose him? Hello? You're still connected. Oh, you're muted. That's why. You've muted yourself. Unmute yourself. Hello. Press the button. button. All right. Well, he'll come back when he comes back, I guess. You are muted, though, just so you know. Onward. So he's a folder for the record. I have missed John like so many others, but was fortunate enough to hit my teenage son in the mouth this year before John passed. His comment was priceless. Hey, they make the news fun. This show's media deconstruction has been an absolute resource.

2:27:58 And while I've been moved to earn my knighthood multiple times, I found reasons to put it off, most recently being let go from my job starting and growing my own business with all its uncertainty and excitement. But truly, connection is protection, both on the show and off the show. Our No Agenda meetup, our third Thursday, Thursday meetup in Charlotte, has been incredibly supportive. After this week's meetup, where I shared my aspiring title with the meetup, I took it as a sign when the National Mulligan Day this past week. Normally, numerology has a stronger pull in the No Agenda community, but I had to respond to the call to reflect, reset, and embrace fresh starts given my new reset, the show's reset, and yours.

2:28:38 Are you back, Dana? Yeah, what did I miss? I had to go. Hold on. Ready? Yeah. We are going to do that. I had to go get another one. I was out. Oh, okay. Well, I was asking you a question. You just were gone. As you are reading a long note, I figure it's a good time to run to the fridge. James Mulligan continues. As such, I donated here for a request the title, Sir Replay of the Links and Lands in Between, given my namesake as a bonus. To give back to No Agenda, I will honor a No Agenda discount of ITM 20 for 20% off all K-Loop wheelchair cushions and mattresses, C-A-I-L-O-O-P,

2:29:19 both in the U.S. and Canada. Since we rarely hear our ex-U.S. members included for those abroad, I will work with my partners for your discount. We're currently distributed. A portion of the sales will also go back to the show. Please reach me at CareLoop, CareLoop.com, C-A-I-R-L-O-O-P.com, or CareLoopMattress.com by email and phone or until my e-comm is set up. Please be patient with the growing pains. In closing, Adam, I fully support your life change and thank you and John for all you have done these past 19 years in media deconstruction, making it fun. ITM, soon to be Sir Replay for the roundtable likes of McAllen 12 with a normal fare. Please issue a dedouching for the delayed nighting.

2:30:01 You've been dedouched. And because of the delayed spreadsheet, I have to look up some of these jingles in real time. He wants Al Sharpton, Resist We Much. I love my truck. I think we got to love my truck. And he also wants prayers instead of the regular karma fare. I got it. But resist, we must. We must. And we will much about that. Be committed. I love my truck and I love what I do. You've got prayers.

2:30:45 Coming in with. I'm curious how old Sir Anonymous of Dog Patch is. When was Lee Harvey Oswald? What year was that? Well, that was before I was born. So that was 63. So he's got to be like in his 70s at least then, right? I think so. Yeah. Well, it's okay. I'm just curious what he's up to. He's all around. I don't know. Was there any codes in that then? No, no, there's no code. Well, the 2446. No, I have no idea. Yeah. No, but it's triggering something around the world. Someone's getting killed. That's what always happens with him. Yeah. Oh, well, something will go down. So

2:31:30 we're the conduit to that assassination or whatever's happening. I think so. Okay. Well, it happens. Okay. Hold on. Let me see. Where am I here? Dame Tamjos of Bricke Hill, Cuba, Missouri, $888.88. ITM donation for show 1914. I'll let the number speak for itself. We know what it is. I miss JCD very much. I miss the two of you together. Got one for the birthday list today, so happy 58th to me. Had to do this when I realized my birthday fell on one of your last few show days, Adam. My original daming was for my birthday four years ago.

2:32:07 You will be missed in your current role. Wishing you all the best in your future endeavors. I hope to cross paths with you one day to thank you for your courage in person. This is a multi-purpose donation. I would like to get the JCD challenge coins for both my husband, Commodore Dave McLean, and myself. And this will complete his knighthood so he can join me at the roundtable for my birthday. Since he isn't helping me with the night name, he is. is getting his name, Knight David McLean. Got it. He can update it in the future if he would like. I think he'll order me some carrot cake for the roundtable. No jingles, but karma for all. Oops. Man. Sorry. Everything's a mess here. No jingles, karma for all. Love and light, Dame Tamjos of Brickley Hill.

2:32:51 And let me, for some reason, I can't get to all of my, I can't reach my utility belt. There it is. You've got karma. You know, if you guys sent me the notes, I would read some of them. So that would have been a good idea, wouldn't it? Just comment when you can. Sir Bumpsy of the Tickly Beard, 72216, ITM, where to even start like so many others. It's odd missing someone you never met. Just as I missed John, still wishing it were not so. I grew up challenging what I was told, so the No Agenda ethos really sat well with me. It has kept me and my family safe and sane along this leg of my life journey with so much entertainment thrown in.

2:33:31 It was the real bonus. The community you have built is something special. I pray that it lives on, and you guys built the community. To the Dvorak family, thank you for sharing John with us. Rest in peace, JCD. To Adam, good luck with the next venture and the future in general. I'm now a regular listener of WGTDT and a brother in Christ. So this is not a goodbye, but more of a be seeing or be hearing you. And as a side note, I forgot his whiskey request of the roundtable. There's so many requests, and the spreadsheet came in late that everyone knows that it will be at the roundtable, but I can't even begin to put them all in there before we do the knighting. He does want jobs, karma, and I'm happy to provide that for you. Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.

2:34:14 Let's go for jobs. You've got karma. Okay, I found our hook for the documentary. It comes from the troll room. We got a hook. C dub dovendo. How do you say C Dubendo? Curry and IMAX. Yeah, that's something nobody needs. IMAX. No way. No way. You wanted a hook. Come on. Adrian Sales is in Salisbury, East Southern Australia, 672.67, which must be at least $2,000 in Australia.

2:35:00 Please accept my executive producer donation to the best podcast in the world. Thank you for being a part of my life for almost seven years now. I will never forget the positive impact you've had on my life. Thank you. Dame of Raccoon Valley, Granville, Ohio, 667. Adam, over the past three years, I've been listening to No Agenda, rarely missing an episode, and hearing the news of its ending is hard to take. That said, your calling to help the world become more spiritual is so needed right now. I haven't heard we get to do this yet, but I'm looking forward to listening to it in any other podcast you may start. I couldn't let No Agenda end without my smoking hot husband being knighted. He's hit many people in the mouth over the years, me included, and every dame needs a knight.

2:35:37 So this donation is for him. Please knight him, Knight of Raccoon Valley. And at the roundtable, he'll have a medium-rare wagu filet. The JCD challenge coin will be a treasure. John is greatly missed. And as much as I have enjoyed the Adam and Friends episode since John's passing, the show was just not the same without him. Rest in peace, JCD. Prayers to you, Adam, to John's family, and the whole No Agenda family. Dame of Raccoon Valley, absolutely. Anonymous, Westminster, Maryland, 5333. Knighting, please pronounce the category me as Sir A. Frothy Mix. Knight of the Maryland Piedmont. A roundtable, pulled pork and PBR, of course. And some F Cancer to the fellow producers of No Agenda Nation.

2:36:19 We are all fortunate and blessed to have been introduced to John and Adam and the No Agenda way of thinking. I found out about this community by way of John as guest on this week in tech. Yes, that was one of our best marketing efforts ever. And was enamored by his dry humor and direct no BS attitude. Little did I know, 1,603 episodes later, I would be submitting my thesis and receiving a PhD in media deconstruction. We should give the value for value model the celebration it deserves by continuing to support Adam in his season of change. Listen to his podcast with Pastor Jimmy and give it the full consideration you have given to No Agenda over the years. I guarantee you will find a lifetime of value above and beyond that of No Agenda.

2:36:57 Every one of you have gained the tools of deconstruction and discernment to apply thoroughly and thoughtfully and carry you forward through the years. As a truck driver by trade, I have an above average amount of time to listen to all the great podcasts out there. But I would like to shout out this week in Bitcoin by Chris, yes, chrislas.com from Jupiter Broadcasting, who also produces Linux Unplugged. For a No Agenda perspective, shout out to the Millennial Media Offensive. Both podcasts have adopted the value for value model and seem to be thriving. Adam, might we hear from Mo of MoFax someday soon? Maybe a guest on We Get to Do This? You never know. Can I get me one of them sweet JCD challenge coins and some pulled pork and PBR at the roundtable?

2:37:39 Yes, all the love to Mimi and the family, Noah Jean the Nation, especially my fellow truck drivers from Sir A. Frothy Mix, Knight of the Maryland Piedmont. Sir Wolfgang, San Jose, California, 52636. ITM Adam on one of the discount nights and nearly missed it to make it real. I can only imagine how you feel when the signal fades in 1912 may be very emotional. It was a nice end of show mix for sure. That was Craig who did that. All the best for you and the best for you and the Dvorak family from Sir Wolfgang, Knight of the Eichlers. Frank Azenzatz. Oh, man, Adgensatz. Armdale, Victoria, Australia, 500. ITM, rest in peace, John.

2:38:24 While it will be sad to see the end of No Agenda, the 19-year ride has been amazing. What better way to finish off than with JCD challenge coin donation of $500 is well over the level needed, but thank you. Now I need to find a podcast that provides the same quality of media deconstruction coupled with a highly entertaining method of delivery. Let's see if AI can find something like this. NA will be sorely missed. No jingles, just some wonderful karma. Thank you for the amazing work spreading the message and evidence about how inept and compromised most of the mainstream media is today. Regards from Frank Adgenstadt from Armadale, Victoria, Australia. He is the Duke of Frankness.

2:39:04 You've got karma. Hey, you missed a perfect chance to plug your thing. What thing? That he's looking for podcasts to fill the podcast index robot. Oh, well, thank you. Yes, connect your robot to podcastindexrobot.com. And your robot will have a good time recommending podcasts to you. Thank you, producer, Brunetti. Thank you. Yeah, just I'm here to help. You should say, I have a note. I have a note for you on that last read. I got a lot of notes. By the way, am I getting a

2:39:46 Dvorak challenge coin? Yeah, I'll send you mine if you need. Well, then you won't have one. I can maybe get another one. Okay. It's really pretty. I mean, it's... Yeah, no, I've seen it. It looks good. I have a whole collection of challenge coins from all my travels, so I definitely need to add that one too. Well, you got to find it, though. When I moved, it's in a box. You could just donate 388.83. You know, I'm just. Hello, pal. I have been. Sir, Mr. Bob Dabolina. Mr. Bob Dabolina from Franklin, Tennessee, $500. I was initially upset to hear that the show was ending, but once I heard your reasons, I understood.

2:40:26 I went through a similar process myself. I don't know if you've already done this, but I strongly urge you to sit down and read the Bible straight through. Literally dedicate one hour a day every day and read it from beginning to end. Too often, people jump around reading a passage here and another there, never fully understanding the words in their proper context. I've spoken with about half a dozen pastors and priests and asked them how many people in their congregations have actually read the entire Bible this way. Their answers were either very few or none. Now, he has a very, very long note here. But, oh my goodness, where should I pick it up? But yes, he definitely feels that you should read the entire Bible. You know what? That's a good point. Tina is on her third run through.

2:41:10 I've done probably most of it, but not in one straight go. That is on my list to do a piece every single day. It's probably about a year that it takes. And he says, he said, I'll leave you with Matthew 7, 21, 3rd to 23. Not everyone who says to me, Lord, Lord, will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven on that day, many will say to me, Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name and cast out demons in your name and do many mighty works in your name? And then will I declare to them, I never knew you depart from me, you workers of lawlessness. What law do you think he's referring to? Whew. Alex, thank you very much, Mr. Bob Dabolina, for your support and for the note. Alex J.

2:41:55 Myers, Mount Sterling, Ohio, $420 and 20 cents. Oh, yeah. And it's a switcheroo for his wife, Alex Myers, with an eye. This challenge coin donation plus $10.31 for anniversary puts me well past knighthood, which I would also like to give to my wife and make her my dame. On our sixth anniversary, we will be having a Catholic ceremony to make us church officials. So why? why not get her a dame ring this time? The coin is for me, though. You're going to marry her with a no-agend. Perfect. I started listening in the 1200s and have been listening to most, if not every show since you and John have been part of my life since before our marriage, before the birth of my three beautiful kids, Ivan, Jacqueline, and Kennedy, causing a significant coffee habit.

2:42:39 Thanks, Gigawatt. You and John have been a part of my life to the point that because of work some weeks, I'd hear your voices more than my wife's. This is not good. I've had a weekly donation of $80.08 plus fees, a cheap boob donation inspired by Kevin McLaughlin in an effort to pay back a fraction of the value. Originally, I'd planned on mailing John a copy of War and Peace with my night note in sight, but upon his passing, I realized I'd missed the opportunity. As with this passing, I'd hope your announcement was a ruse to drum up donations, but I knew it wasn't. Nope. Happy for your direction you're choosing, but will forever miss your takes in deconstruction. Please dame my wife Dame Finettely, Dame Definitely, oh, Dame Finitely, right definitely.

2:43:23 I guess she'll have chicken marsala and a wine. Maybe just leave it as a JCD wine pairing. The jingles I had in my mind for when my wife finishes her children's book as a promo for promo jingle. Run-on sentences. Hopefully, one day I can meet you at a meetup if we make it down there or you to Ohio and possibly buy you a drink. Either in this, it's on the book tour. Either in this life or the next. Love and prayers from the Myers family to the whole Curry clan JCD family. God bless and safe travels. P.S. Sorry for the long note, but wanted to see if I could hear John groan from the other side. I heard him several times. Oh, brother. Bob Rathmel in Sant Isabel, Santa Isabel, California, 419.

2:44:03 No jingles, no karma. Thank you, Adam and John, for 19 years of helping me to think better. I wish you all the best, says Bob. Sean Murray, these are challenge coin donations plus fees. Thank you, $400.91. Thank you for always sharing knowledge and not being afraid to think differently. All of you are special and you make a difference in my life. May our good Lord continue to bless you all. Sir Hank Duke of New York, challenge coin. Thank you for 19 years. Norman Furley, challenge coin. He says note to come, but we did not receive it. So send it as a make-good. Blake Luther, challenge coin. Thank you for all the value over the years. The show saved me. I will cherish this coin and look forward to what you do in the future, Adam.

2:44:43 Thank you and rest in peace, JCD. Sir X Anonymous, challenge coin. If the peerage committee approves, change my name to Sir Ted, just Ted, like Adam. I'm also in flux right now. Truly sad to see you go, but where can the rest of the world get their media deconstruction? You legacy. And it cuts off there. Your legacy, I guess. Thank you. Kelly McCann. Okay. Challenge coin. ITM, Adam. I wanted to let you know that you have done kingdom work with an NA pod. You've changed the way I interpret the media. And this, while I've homeschooled my kids in the final critical years at home, do not fear is a legit command. Brian Nobody with a challenge coin donation.

2:45:27 And he wants the marching pigs. I think I can do the marching pigs for you. Spot the spook. Okay. Spot the spook. That's we haven't heard that one in a long time. Where is the spot the spook? Spot the spook. Oh, that's interesting. I wonder if this is oh, that's probably it. And what else? You're going to need a Bitcoin. Okay. So, Manning. Manning drums. Okay. All right. Adam and guest, Dana Brunetti with this donation of a challenge coin.

2:46:05 I become a Baron of the No Agenda Roundtable. Although the price was steep, I want to thank Adam, Adam's family, John Spirit, John's family, and everyone in the back office for 19 years of this show, which includes Eric, by the way. I've been listening to the show since show 1000, sometimes becoming a man overboard, but I wouldn't trade the insight and friends I have made through the show for anything. Speaking of friends, my ability to schedule meetups before we know major show events is uncanny on John's funeral day and on the first show day without Adam, both done before the announcements. I'm announcing the Central Jersey meetup on November 1st. The name is Oyster related because of our usual spot, 3BR Distillery in Keyport, New Jersey, is having an Oyster and Bloody Merry event before the meetup at noon.

2:46:49 It is fitting that in these changing times of the show, I am starting as a humble douchebag to a night and finally claiming Baron status. For my claim with peerage committee approval, I am seeking to claim a section of the Pine Barrens that will henceforth be known as Nowhere, New Jersey. Travelers beware of random bodies and the New Jersey devil with other assorted weird things, making the name Baron Nobody of Nowhere, New Jersey. It's noticed too dang long. Yes, thank you for everything. for everything for reading this. Baron Nobody of Nowhere from New Jersey, former Sir Nobody of the 3D printer. Fear is freedom. Subjugation is liberation. Contradiction is truth. Those are the facts of this world. And you will all surrender to them.

2:47:33 You peace in human clothes! Spot the spook. Spot the spook. Everybody wants to spot the spook. This ended all hell is going to break loose. And you're going to need a Bitcoin. Dale McCabe comes in with a challenge coin donation and says, I've only recently been smacked in the mouth after my big brother, Ben, aka Viking Star Beam, aka Mr. Explosion. He has been a longtime listener of the show, a huge fan, and great critical thinker. I want this JCD challenge coin to be a gift for him. Oh, that's beautiful. Rest in peace, JCD. I send my thoughts and prayers to both your families, and I wish you all the best, eagerly awaiting your next endeavor.

2:48:17 Sincerely, Dale McCabe. Skies Window Cleaning, Challenge Coin. Hey, Skies Window Cleaning, serving Hood Canal. God bless. Jonathan Staples, challenge coin, asking for a deduction. You've been deduced. Not long after episode 1910, someone near the regional airport sent a meow message on the Meshtastic Longfast channel. I should have sent an ITM in reply. Yes, indeed. The real birdie wants a beautiful challenge coin and donated as such. I've been a listener since the very beginning. Thanks for 19 years of media deconstruction and learning. You and John help me understand that the media lies and the government scams everyone. ITM, Peace, The Real Birdie.

2:49:00 There's Sir Patrick Koble, Duke of the South, with a challenge coin donation. 19 years, what a run, he says. We all deeply miss John, but remember that you two changed so many lives around the world with No Agenda, and they'll keep changing lives and, in turn, changing others. Your next chapter will have even more impact on the world. Thank you, brother. Sean Morris for the challenge coin. I've been a producer of the best podcast in the universe for many years. I've been blessed to have this show and this family be a part of my life. As always, shows, as life always shows, the sun always rises on the next chapter of life in the morning. Max Shellen Traeger, longtime boner, first time donor, please deduce.

2:49:42 You've been deduced. Adam, John, and the entire No Agenda family has truly changed my life over the years. Rest in peace. John, see y'all and WGTDT. And he wants dogs are people too. Okay, we got the dogs are people too. And oh, they're eating the dogs. Okay. Of course. Eating the dogs. Yeah. Yeah, I got you. Dogs are people. They're eating the dogs. Sir Jason, challenge coin donation. Please accept my donation. John is terribly missed by all and is still hard to process, but the community lives on and the deconstruction won't be stopped.

2:50:25 Thank you for all that you've done throughout the years. With this donation, I pass the barren threshold and humbly request Baron of the Rockfish Valley as my new title. Stay safe and bless all the producers of the best podcast in the universe, says Sir Jason. Amy Harmon, challenge coin. Wow. Jay just had to order a whole bunch of them because of the people want this. Dear Adam, I've been a die-hard listener since my sister-in-law hit me in the mouth in 2020. Surrounded as I am in Asheville, North Carolina by the purple-haired alphabet No Kings woke TDS over vaxgender fluid minions. NA Nation was the infusion of Saturday. I survived on connections. Surely is protection. Adam, it is with mixed emotion that I say congratulations on identifying your exit strategy. Thank God for WGTDT.

2:51:09 I've been on a Christ Curious adventure for several years, and you sharing your journey renewed my intent. Do you see? You are already shepherding. I like everyone, miss John, and was startled how grief-stricken I became for a man I never had the fortune to meet. May the Dvorak family take some comfort knowing that JCD's life impacted so many of us and his spirit lives on in all our hearts. Rest in peace, Buzzkill. With a challenge coin donation, my accounting indicates a dame title as well. If it pleases the peerage committee, I would like to be known as Dame of the Tradwives, and I would like Nanaimo bars and bacon at the roundtable. So ordered. ITM to all of Gitmo Nation, Dame of the Tradwives. Jason Watkins.

2:51:51 Hello. I remember listening to the first show. I've come and gone over the years, but always returned. I'm incredibly happy and thankful for the countless insights and laughs from the Noah family. Thank you, ITM 73, Jason, Kilo, Delta 2, Victor, Victor, Juliet, 73s. Sir Knives, these are all challenge coin donations. Adam Dvorado. Dvorak family, the entire NA community. I can't help but say I'm writing with a heavy heart hearing that Adam will soon be retiring. So I felt compelled to pitch in one more donation before he does and say thanks for all he has done. Much like John, you will be sorely missed. Suffice to say that our weekly brunch listening to the live stream after the range will never be the same.

2:52:28 It's the end of an era. Oh, yeah, I remember you guys do that. In addition to my desire to have the challenge coin to remember John Bay, I have to confess some selfishness that I wanted the one last donation that will push me from knight to baronet. It is truly bittersweet, but I would have hated myself if I didn't seize on the opportunity before Adam retires. It's like I'm dying here. If I could also humbly request some jobs, Karma, it would mean a lot to me. I fear, not long from my current, I fear I'm not long from my current position, and the mental strain is causing before searching for greener pastures myself. And what that will entail remains murky. I hear you. Adam, best of luck to you, sir. Hunter S. Thompson put it well with one of my favorite quotes. There he goes. One of God's own prototypes.

2:53:11 A high-powered mutant of some kind, never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, too rare to die. Fair winds and following seas to you. P.S. Sorry again for lighting you up in the troll room about the meetup note. It wasn't my finest hour. It's long been forgiven, man. No problem at all. Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs. Let's vote for jobs. You got karma. Matt, November Romeo 3 Mike. Godspeed Adam and Soldier on. All the best 73s. Jeff Mincey, challenge coin, No Agenda family. Thank you for the last 19 years of Media Deconstruction. Adam, here's the 19 more years of kingdom construction. His love endures forever.

2:53:54 Sir Simon Bennett, challenge coin, all good things come to end to an end. Thank you for the many hours of information and laughs. Sir Simon Bennett. Anonymous from Lucasville, Ohio, $400. Thank you. SLC. And I saw SLC in the troll room today. Gipmonation, right after Job, right after Job loses everything. Oh, Job, I'm sorry. Job 121, LSV. After Job loses everything, he says, I came forth naked from the womb of my mother, and naked I returned there. Yahweh is given and Yahweh is taken. Let the name of Yahweh be blessed. We have enjoyed a great show. We have grown to love the show, men. Let us show our appreciation for something that doesn't last forever and leave the betterness

2:54:38 behind. Adam, thank you for Gitmonation. Thank you, JCD. Title change, SLC becomes Sir SLC, Knight of the Day of the Lord. For the roundtable, I need a minimum two-person inflatable pool centered and filled directly on the roundtable. It's already there and filled up. Some matzah and a box of No Agenda Merlot. Roba Jello. Roba Jello. Yes. We're ready to have a Jell-O wrestling contest. The offer of salvation through faith in Jesus Christ will be brought to all, starting with the Hookers, Rent Boys, and Raven from Reseda. A baptism and communion to follow. You never told me about that part of it.

2:55:17 Well, you hang around, man. You might learn something. I mean, you can have the Rent Boys, but I'll take to your rest. Once the, let me see. Do we have these jingles still? Sunday service, which, wow, man, I haven't played that one in a long time. Do we have back to real news? I'm pretty sure we have that somewhere. Let me see. My children, it's a Sunday morning service. Long episode. And now, back to real news. Classics. Classics. Jason Rickman, 388.83, the perfect challenge coin donation.

2:56:00 Couldn't pass up the opportunity to get the JCG challenge coin as a remembrance of someone who was in my ear for nearly 20 years. Thanks to John and Adam for so many years of the best podcast in the universe. And there's Dame Marie of the Greek Kingdoms and Sir Mark of the Greenwood with their challenge coin donation. And they say, salute 19 years of the tremendous relationship JC and Adam brought to our weekly revelry. That is the No Agenda Show. God continues to bless the Dvorak and Curry families, especially Adam's new calling, Love is Lit. Sir Tommy Hawk, challenge coin. Thanks for an amazing run, No Agenda. So many memorable moments and Amygdala shrinking insights over the years. JCD's graduation marked the end of this epic season, and I begrudgingly accept that everything really does change.

2:56:44 Thank you for your courage, says Sir Tommy Hawk. Sir Dan the man, he's been around for a long time. Cape Coral, Florida, 388.83. I understand your reasoning, but I'm sad you are no longer going to be doing the show. You and John have been a part of my life twice a week for at least 15 of your 19 years. I'm not sure what I will fill the void with. I want to give an up. update on our family health saga. The story started prior to John's passing. I still recall him commenting that this was the first request for a kidney donation on the show. Yes, I have something to say about that. On October 27th, my wife will be undergoing a kidney transplant, and our daughter is the donor.

2:57:21 I'm at times proud, thrilled, excited, and terrified. The two most important women in my life will be undergoing surgery simultaneously. Best of luck in the next chapter for you and Tina. I look forward to the book and the movie. I mean, documentary. I hope you follow through Better Than John. Documentary as a movie. Yeah. I hope you follow through Better Than John and his vinegar book. Well, the Dvorak family cookbook will include the vinegar chapters, I believe. So it's not quite the vinegar book, but close enough. Where was I? Having heard many of these stories over the years, I'm sure it will be a fun read. Please accept my donation of 388.83.

2:58:01 I look forward to getting my challenge coin. This donation puts me less than $700 from my dukedom. I wish I'd been able to complete it before the departure of the two men that provided the value that made it worth those donations. Thank you for your courage. Rest in peace, JCD. Sir Dan the Man, Earl of Southwest Florida, protector of Cape Coral and the islands of Sanibel and Captiva. And he wanted a mac and cheese and a shot of health karma. And I will say, it was kind of crazy after that. On that show, I said, whoever donates a kidney, so I would come visit them and take them to dinner personally. And I said, and John will join you too. And after that show, John made me take that out of the show.

2:58:45 He was so mad at me. He was yelling at me. Like, and I was going to make him get on a plane. He's like, you know, I can't travel. I'm like, dude, like, I wasn't even thinking about it that way. He was so mad at me. And it was sad. Did you go? I'm sorry? No, no, no, because he got it from his daughter. We were thinking it was going to be someone from No Agenda. Oh, yeah. But I'm sad. He'll take his daughter to dinner. I will. But I was sad because John was really, he was really angry at me. Like, I probably hadn't heard him in a long time. It was just like, oh, oh, man. And I was really taken aback. I'm like, I'm sorry. I'm really sorry. You take it out of the show. Like, okay, okay. I'll take it out. I was speaking up.

2:59:29 I got notes of some things I need you to take out of this show. Yeah, good luck with that. You slaves can get used to mac and cheese. Mac and cheese. I can use you. Macaroni and cheap chatter melted together. Mac and cheese, mac and cheese, mac and cheese. Mac and cheese. Everybody. You've got karma. Bri Gibson. Adam, thank you for all the years of service through No Agenda. I grew up in Austin in the 70s and 80s. Then Sam Marcos in the 90s. I'm glad you're in the Hill Country now, though. I wish you could have seen it then. I've heard it was much better. In March 2019, I caught COVID indirectly from a sailor in Seattle. Hey, Sailor. What? I don't know what that's supposed to mean.

3:00:15 I think I call it COVID from Joe Buck. From who? Joe Buck. Joe Buck? Who's Joe Buck? The sports announcer. Oh, I wouldn't know anything about a sports announcer. Some of the people listening, they'll know, but it's when COVID was locked down. I went down there. I went around my ranch everywhere up here, unmasked the whole time. And then I went to LA. Everybody had to show COVID vaccinations and everything. I had somebody make one for me to go into this bar we were going into. And I was hanging out with Joe Buck in there, and he was a little sick. And he was with COVID. Joe Buck, he died, right? Joe Buck, not too long ago. Oh, he didn't die. He did now.

3:00:59 You just killed him. I'm sorry. Anyway, in COVID, 2019, I caught COVID indirectly from a sailor in Seattle. I lost my sense. That's a great line. I caught COVID from a sailor in Seattle. I lost my sense. This is bad. I lost my sense of taste and smell. I don't think he meant it that way or she is here or she. Bri, Bri, Bri, probably Bri, Bree. Bree, probably Brianne. Brianne, probably Brienne. I'm thinking. No, no, no, no. Bri. Bri runs with Guy. No, it's a guy. Okay, Bri. Well, you got the same issue now when the first time you talked about me on the show. You misgendered me, so you're probably doing the same now.

3:01:41 I still misgender you. The jury's out. You do it intentionally now. I lost my sense of taste and smell completely. I journaled it as it happened. The University of Barcelona later found COVID in an archive sewage sample dated March 12, 2019. I don't know if you knew that. No. Wow. That's quite a note. Hold on a second. We need the more you. Wait is it? Where's my ITM? The more you know. We need that one. Here we go. The more you know in the morning. When COVID officially broke out a year later, I told someone at work I had it before. Rumors spread that I was nuts.

3:02:23 And I had to fight the gaslighting. Your show helped. I wanted to share this for three reasons. One, you taught me the government plays a long game and times its events like the October surprise. I found No Agenda while looking for podcasts during March 2019 illness, so COVID brought me to you on a different clock. And the show helped me cope with hard times at work and with family throughout the elections, the pandemic, and the cycles in between. It kept my feet in reality. Thank you. You're more than welcome. Your analysis of the governor media, along with John's takes and more recently, your guests is insightful and useful in daily life. You bring in clips that otherwise miss that reveal issues we suspect but rarely hear stated outright. I also remember your takes on public school, grooming, and homeschooling, helping us with our children.

3:03:08 I hope you don't give up the media deconstruction. Maybe you'd like to bring more of a God versus worldview to it, correct? It helps people who are in the dark. And those of us already in the light, you may not be a prophet, but you hold up the signs. Finally, a shout out to my fabulous and devoted wife, Paula, who's celebrating her birthday. Please give her some birthday karma. Sincerely, Bry. There you go. Birthday karma for Paula. You've got karma. I caught COVID from a sailor in Seattle. It's just too good. That's the best. I got to mark that. COVID. I mean, it's just. Hi, I'm Adam Curry. Oh, what do you do? Well, I caught COVID from a sailor.

3:03:51 I caught COVID from a sailor. That's so awesome. I'm just going to use that randomly. In Seattle. The Seattle part makes it worse. Oh, yeah, yeah. In Seattle. You got to put the location. Wow. I'm giddy. Hold on a second. You're on gummies now, aren't you? No, no, no. Tina needs to bring me the wine. I don't know if she's listening, but it's that time now. What are we at for? Yeah, it's late. Chris Carcia, Challenge Coin, no note. Jason Stewart, challenge coin, no note. Justin Rawlings, ITM, after doing some accounting, I've also passed knighthood with this challenge coin donation.

3:04:30 John, and you will be missed. And wish the best for you and John's family. Been a listener at least since the Benghazi days. Like to be knighted as Sir Rollins, Rawlings. I'm sorry. Rollings. Rolling with an S. I got it. Sir Rollings. Justin Rowlings. Dame Lauren, the Lego Lady, and Sir Mac, a Digital Knight of Mead. Challenge Coin. Thank you for the tremendous value over the years. Adam, as we approach your retirement episode, we humbly ask for the title upgrades to Baroness Lauren and the Lego lady and Baronet Mac, a digital knight of mead. Thanks for the memories and laughs, ITM. Sir James of Norway, in the morning, boss.

3:05:09 Well, I've been putting this off for far too long. I was knighted on show 570, but never claimed my night ring or certificate. Now I see that 33, 33 a month since 2012, plus a few one-offs have added up to Viscount status. Ordering the JCD challenge coin pushes me over the edge to Earl, and I'd like to claim my protectorate of the southern Norwegian valley of Setesdahl and will henceforth be known as Sir James of Norway, Earl of Settisdahl. Cheers, Adam. Here's to taking off those cynical glasses and leaving them in the drawer along with John's phone. I'll see you over on WW, he says, WWJD, WGTDT. Yay, Jesus, he says, Sir James of Norway. Sir Bad Potato. Man, these are some names that go back.

3:05:54 Almost seven years of tuning into No Agenda twice a week, excitedly awaiting the news breakdown from the boys. I always knew it would come to an end, but sadness fills me in the events that led up to where we are now. JCD will always remain in my heart. And Adam, your presence here will surely be missed. I wish you and the Dvorak family a fortuitous future. Still waiting with bated breath as to the future of the show. Good luck. God bless you all. And he says, is there any way at all I could beg you to email the two versions of the In the Morning song? Yeah, you know, I should publish those. You should be able to get them from the show notes. Michael Scott Eager, Silver Springs, Maryland. Adam and friends, I wish you all the best. I know a pivot like this comes with a lot of prayer. I'm both happy and sad for you.

3:06:36 Happy that you get your exit strategy while still living and growing in your faith. Sad that your stewardship of No Agenda will be greatly reduced. I've been listening since the ChiCom days when I learned about debt trap diplomacy. I was listening before I started podcasting and before I served in elected office in Massachusetts. Now that I live in the outer swamps of the nation's capital and work in the data center epicenter of Ashburn, Sterling, Virginia, I'm back to listening regularly. Thank you to you and JCD for teaching listeners to hear the unsaid stories between the reporting. Ah, yes, the condom, as Dana Brunetti calls it. I have donated before, but this is my first time as an executive producer. I would love to plug my value for value podcast, Eager2BeHealthy,

3:07:20 where we share health and happiness stories from a lay person's perspective. We are actively booking guests at eagertobehealthy.com/slash booking. And for your podcasting 2.0 audience, our app is waiting on Play Store testing approval. You can learn more at eagertobehealthy.com/slash eager dash two dash. Listen, I feel that donating to No Agenda is a good way to prime the V4 V Pump. So I'm requesting prayers, joy, and thanks for Adam and Friends and the Dvorak family jingles if you have them. Well, that means you want the prayer jingle. I saw this guy on X. Oh, yeah? What did he say? Yeah. He was plugging his app. He was plugging his app, I presume. Let me play the jingle for him. You've got prayers.

3:08:10 Did you find him? What? I thought you were going to find him on X. Oh, yeah, I can do that. I've been scrolling. Well, don't worry about it. I thought you had something. You just. It was going against something that I thought. He was arguing with you on Twitter. How dare he? Really? Hold on. It was about the Google being racist. Oh, about asking for a white doctor? Yeah, he said, ITM, I will bite since it is a health angle. The wording sucks, yet it does provide, he put conference comfort when you identify with the caregiver. Well, not Indian, my health issues were diagnosed by a provider trained in India first.

3:08:55 I also get medical care in India. Care was efficient. And then my response was, Did you read the last slide image? Which was a pretty old post, though. You're like, you're reposting old things. Check the calendar, dude. Hey, hey, hey. Boomer. Listen, it still holds up. Okay. I know, but it's okay. Well, that's just me. In this day and age, when we're not supposed to. Should we give some context? Sure. Or no, or just move on. We'll move on. Brian Skelton, also known as Sir Brian with One Eye, Cedar Park, Texas, Challenge Coin.

3:09:36 ITM, in honor of our beloved John C. Dvorak, please allow me to receive a challenge coin. Not owning the coin would be nothing less than bullcrap. And speaking of bullcrap, I purchased that'sbullcrap.com to set up a, check it out, Dana, to set up a memorial site for John. If anyone has a favorite JCD clip, please send it to me and I will add it to the site. You can contact me at sirbrianwithaney.com or sirbrianwithaney.wtf. And I'm happy to announce that this donation of 388.83 upgrades me to Baron. No title change requested. I'm looking forward to many years of listening to Adam and Pastor Jimmy on WGTDT.

3:10:13 And I would like to float the idea that maybe, just maybe, Adam would consider using one hour a week, maybe on Wednesdays, to do a podcast with his lovely roommate. He's talking about Curry and the Keeper. Yes, I'm being dragged back into that and I'm looking forward to it, where Tina gets to make fun of me for a full hour a week. In the morning, y'all, it says that's bullcrap.com. It says website under development, and then there's a picture of Dvorak saying bullcrap. Okay. And that's it. It's under construction, as we used to say. Development. Yeah, no, back in the day, I had a little guy with a hard hat. Yeah, and he's standing at the road in the road thing.

3:10:56 Jer Nelson, Ger Ratcliffe, I'm sorry, from Nelson, British Columbia, Candinavia, 3883. Adam, thank you for all that you do for us. I've been a fan of the scathing observations and wry impish wit of columnist John C. Dvorak since I was a teenager and would buy issues of PC computing for his column alone. And so please accept my too little too late note and a challenge coin donation. It puts my monthly 3333 mothership boarding pass donation from October 2011. It brings me to Viscount status with $1,000 left over for an honest damehood for my patient wife accounting provided. If it should please the peerage committee, we would like to claim the titles of Sir Ratcliffe, Viscount of the Unfinished Basement, and Dame Haley Ratcliffe at the roundtable.

3:11:40 We'd enjoy coffee and cartoons. Oh, and as a jingle, can I hear John's going to read the Sunday Times? Times? Yeah, boy, that's a, these are these are good ones. Yes, that's a Kevin Reeves. And to the producers, hug your podcasters because you never know. John's coming on the Sunday time. On the Sunday Times. Yeah. Wow, that's an old one. Alan of Gen X, St. Paul, Minnesota. Emailed, Adam. I enjoyed show 1902, the MTV Chronicles, and your previously untold story shared with Laron and Derry et al.

3:12:21 You are my favorite VJ. And even though my Christian school homeroom teacher discouraged rock music and videos, I turned out okay. In present day, I'm solidly on my faith journey, and you're in my life again with No Agenda and WGTDT. Thank you. Something interesting for you. I have Debbie Harry's 1989 solo album and her song End of the Run. She says that the phrase value, she says the phrase value for value. Wow. How about that? I'll have to check it out. I thought you might get a kick out of that. Can I get some monk karma? Love and light, Alan of Gen X. Do we have monk? Scaremonger just posted a work of Joe Buck getting hugged by a sailor.

3:13:10 You've got karma. Hey, people. I'm really digging these jingles. Yeah. He did another one of my 450, but it's a gummy drive and it's smoking a joint and it's got rocket thrusters, but it doesn't have my dog in the back. You got to redo that one. Oh, okay. I'm just giving, I'm giving notes on the artwork because we could tell it's slim pickings. I can tell. I can tell. Baronet Michael Robinson, Salem, Oregon, 388.83. Attached note page five, which I have here.

3:13:50 Oops. I just blew out here. There we go. Thank you for the many years of deconstruction. This challenge coin donation brings me to Baron. Can I be the Baron of Willamette Valley? Well, of course. And notice I pronounce it Willamette Valley correctly. Keeping it short in honor of JCD, keep up the good work, Kilo5 Alpha Charlie Charlie. Thank you very much, Baronet Michael Robinson. You got it. Sir Commodore Cliffey, and he also sent in a note, which is on page seven. And let's see, what does he say here? I think this is him. Commodore Cliffey.

3:14:28 Page seven. Wait, let me see. Where are we here? Oh. Dear Adam and JCD family, I couldn't resist the challenge coin promotion. We all miss John, but long live No Agenda. Keep up the good work. And he wants No Sweat Off My Balls. Okay, we got that one. Sweat Off My Balls. Yes. What else did you want? He wanted I Love My Truck. I'm so glad I recorded that. Do you have that noisemaker? I love my truck. Did you get that one? I don't know. I have the harmonica, the pig, and the cow, and the train whistle, and

3:15:10 yes, you have the bell. It's no sweat off my balls. I love my truck, and I love what I do. Wow! And he wanted a yay at the end, so we give that to him as well. Ed is in Summit, New Jersey. ITM, thank you for all working so hard to continue the best podcast in the universe. Adam, let me throw my voting for John's cousin, Dana. I thought it was nephew. I'm not his cousin. I'm his nephew. Kissing cousin, maybe. He seemed to be groomed for this role. From the bell to the tip of the day to the scoffing at eternal salvation. I like your other guests, too, and mixing it up keeps it fresh. But my mail-in vote goes to Dana. Heck, they're all apart.

3:15:52 They're all part of the No Agenda fam. Podfather, indeed, keep up the great work. I've been following your light. Keep it shining. Ed from Summit. P.S. I should be a knight by now, but please make this a switcheroo and knight my teenage son. Instead, please knight him, Sir Catching Sense, and allow him to have roasted salmon with the skin and cookie monster ice cream. Oh, salmon with the skin and cookie monster ice cream at the roundtable. You got it. Then we have Bob from Monmouth, Oregon. What are you doing? That was a breaking this anatomy and pen. What are you doing? Dana? Yeah, writing something down. Dana won. Oh, they vote for a vote for me.

3:16:35 Yeah, that was definitely a vote for you. Jay Cow, zero. Bob Dew, zero. Matt Long is now on his list, zero. We're at. at the Associate Executive Producers, $250 from Bob, and Bob sent in a note. Hello, Adam. I thought I should send money now. I send quarterly, and I'm always behind. I figure it was important to not be a slow paying, slow pay this time. It is always sad to see something so well done, so well done end. But all life has changed, and all things, even marvelous things, end. At the end of a job, the best thing to hear is that was a success.

3:17:14 That was fun. Thank you, Adam. This has been fun. Can you play We're All Gonna Die or just Slip Me Some Karma? Well, why don't I do both? I can do We're All Gonna Die and give you some karma. We're all gonna die. Wait, I missed the karma. There it is. I got the karma for you. You've got karma. What's that? What you should do is, well, you only got two shows, but your bot should listen along and cue these up and just put them together as you're reading a note. Wow, I could have thought of that one. That's the biggest problem with this AI stuff: you forget the easiest things that you can do.

3:17:58 The things that they can do. Oh, man. Well, actually, I just didn't have time for it, but I have the spreadsheet. I can click. It does pull out the jingles on the spreadsheet and I can click it, but I never got around to improving it where it selects them all. So if there's more than one jingle, it takes several clicks and it will be just easier for me to search it. But normally, if I get the spreadsheet early enough, then it's all set up. But that's a good one. Thanks. Thanks for your time. Thank you, Sailor from Seattle. I did not give that girl COVID, her guy. D. Billy in Cantonville, Florida, 212 and 28 cents. There are two things I do not like about the show, and that is the dedouching jingle and the double-up karma.

3:18:42 Hence the note: please do not play the dedouche jingle, even though this is my first donation. If Adam or Mimi would like to personally dedouch me, I will accept that, but I can understand why you wouldn't want to open the door to personal dedouchings as they would probably become so popular. I don't know what that is, that you would spend half the show getting through them. Sorry it took me so long to get around to this donation, but I've enjoyed the show immensely, and it's time to pay up for the value you have given me. Thank you, says D. Billy. Thank you. And here is Eli the Coffee Guy, who I want to thank once again for sending in some of your wonderful cold brew and espresso for The Rub

3:19:18 and the decaf for Tina. He's in Bensonville, Illinois, 21022. 19 years of the best podcasting universe, he writes, and I've been lucky enough to catch nine of them. Adam, John, thank you for your courage. For anyone newer to the show, go back to the archive. Sandy Hook, the Boston Marathon bombing, the Las Vegas shooting, the war in Libya. There are real gems in there. My favorite is still the show after DJT's first election. When the last show wraps, we'd like to keep the community all of us producers have built alive. We'll still be putting together meetups. We'll have some cool things going on specifically for No Agenda producers. Go to our website and sign up for our email list today. And you need to visit them at gigawattcoffee roasters.com.

3:20:01 Use the code ITM20 for 20% off your order or try code Bon Gino, which will get you a discount just about everywhere. Thank you for your courage and say caffeinated, says Eli the coffee guy. Thank you, brother. The Bot Commander. Now, no note from the Bot Commander with $200? No, it's botcom.ai. Value for value small business AI stuff. Bot Commander, thank you. Jerem Sweezy in Gresham, Oregon. Oh, wait. That actually concludes our executive and associate executive producers for episode 1914. These are real credits. They're valuable wherever credits are accepted. Our formula is this.

3:20:45 We go out, we hit people in the mouth. Oh, man, Tina to the rescue. She just brought in the wine. Thank you. Thank you so much. Scaramonga up. He took my note. He's good, man. He just on the fly. Now, Scaramang, he's hired. He's hired. We'll give him points. Back in. Backhand. We'll give him backhand on the deal. $100. Not first dollar, though. No, no, no, not first dollar. No, no.

3:21:28 Jerome Sweezy, Gresham, Oregon. I'll read this note, even though we don't necessarily read them under 200. But I'd like to keep this from being. becoming war and peace. Well, yes, thank you. I was diagnosed with cancer in 2012 and once had tumors throughout my body, including a grapefruit-sized tumor in my liver through the miracle of medicine in the hands of God. I now have no evidence of disease. Amen, brother. I'm currently struggling with the effects of brain radiation, including swelling that makes speaking, concentrating, and typing difficult. Super intelligence helped me write this by taking out the ums and turning my thoughts into a cohesive message.

3:22:07 My youngest daughter was just a baby when I was diagnosed, and now she's 15. I've always wanted to see her get married. I'm grateful for more time with my wife, whom I love dearly, and all my children. I'll truly miss John. I remember when John interviewed Steve Wozniak when you were traveling, and I remember that right. If am I remembering that right? Yes, you are remembering that right. That was, I think we both had the show off, and uh, we John did a couple of those, and I do recall Wozniak. We should probably look it up. Rest in peace, JCD. Please pay the F Cancer jingle, and you've got prayers. Okay, so yes, we'll give that to you, brother. And let's hoping that it all works for you.

3:22:51 Where's the F cancer? There we go. You've got prayers. Ian Field, $100. Thank you. Countess Knight from Edmonds, Washington, $100. And she did send in a note, which always does get some preference. And she says, This is great. Watch out, Alex. I heart Brunetti. Oh. Yeah. Wait, who is this? Let me write this down. Here's my pen. Yes, Countess Knight. She caught COVID from a sailor in Seattle. So be on the lookout.

3:23:33 C. Jones, Safety Harbor, Florida, 100. Thank you. There he is. $80.88. The boob donation from Sir Kevin McLaughlin. He is, as always, the Archduke of Luna, Lover of America, and boobs.

Brent of the Bee from Cabin John in Maryland, The Small Boobs, $60.06. He says he got hit in the mouth five years ago. Haven't missed an episode since. Tommy, you're still a douchebag. Douchebag. I'm sad to lose both Crackpot and Buzzkill, but I enjoyed the ride.

3:24:13 Brent of the Bee. Matthew Elwart with the Small Boobs from Weather for Texas, along with Dame Liberty Mom from Vista, California. Baron Henry of Outpost West comes in with $59.92 from Ranos Paulos Verdas, California. Leonardo Bravo, Leo Bravo from Los Angeles, 5110, Double Nickels on the Dime. Members of the court, finally, I've settled on a night name. Please pronounce the Kate me as Servex Knight of the Rio, Bravo. And Rodolfo Izcuerdo from Jefferson, Texas, 5272. And he gets to claim his knighthood with the following title: Sir Ruddy Ridd, Artificer of Turbo, Artificer of Turbo Rotary Engines.

3:24:54 Thank you all so much for the thousands of hours of Media Deconstruction for broadcasting the best podcast in the universe. Have been a listener since ever since Devorah got kicked off that tech show. Your steady attitudes and lens of skepticism has helped me navigate not just news media, but also countless situations in my daily life. I always think of both Adam and John as uncles I never had, somehow knew like brothers and family. Thank you to all the producers, hosts, and back office for what you do and for helping build the No Agenda community that has brought wonderful people into our world for my wife and I. Godspeed. Thank you for your courage. Go podcasting, love and light. Rodolfo D. Izcuerdo, soon to be Sir Ruddy Ridd, artificer of turbo rotary engines.

3:25:34 52.72 from John Adams in Stratford, Connecticut. Thanks for the memories. Adam, Godspeed, brother. Rest in peace, JCD, forever in my heart. $50.05 from Forrest Martin. Same from Andrew Benz in Imperial, Missouri. Sir Economic Hitman with $50 and one penny from Tomball, Texas. And here's the 50s as we wind it up for today. Baron Robb in Leiden, the Netherlands.

3:26:15 imagemakersinc.com. That's with a K, ImageMakersInc.com. Alex Delgado in Aptos, California, and Michael Myers of Diamond Head, Missouri. Round out this long donation list, but wow, thank you so much. It is just so wonderful to see you all supporting these final shows for me. for me and really appreciate what you all have done over the years and for No Agenda. And of course, the fact that many of you are upping your donations to become knights and get that beautiful Knights and Dames and that beautiful challenge coin, as well as just all the title changes. It's fantastic. You can support the show Value for Value by going to NoAgendadonations.com.

3:26:58 I realized that I forgot to thank the artist for episode 1913, Meet Muck, which, believe it or not, was Tyler Brown again. Comics or blogger was very mad at me for choosing this. He's like, you should be supporting Elon Man, not have the car destroy the sign. Like, this was one of the best pieces of art. I don't understand the problem. It was good, and I liked it. I like Tyler Brown. He's just winding up my final episodes with artwork. It's crazy. Have you seen his stuff? Yeah, I don't see any today, though. He's probably giving people a break. Let them come in with something. Yeah, no, he had a run there for a while. No, he did.

3:27:38 He did. He chose H1 today. Oh, he did? Okay. He did the Curry Caster. Well, Dana will help me choose the artist because I've been doing it by myself, mainly except Matt Long chose his, and we'll let Callicanis choose his. And the last show that I do on the 29th, so one show after the 29th, the 19th anniversary, will be Andrew Horowitz. So that should be fun. I've kind of done it. Andrew's doing the last show? Yeah. I've known him the longest. I've known him as long as I'm going to be able to do that. I think we should all do the last show. I think that would be such a horrible idea. I think it'd be amazing. We'd just all be talking over top of each other. Well, listen, you have the link.

3:28:19 It doesn't change. You can dial in. You can pop in whenever Calican. You know, Calicanis, you have to send him a calendar invite, and then you never know if he's coming or not. It's like, you got to send him cover. I'm going to bounce on on Sunday and tell him that he can go and I'll take over. Okay. Looking forward to it. Does he come with clips? He only came with clips once. Let me write that down. Go to noagended donations.com. Support the show. Any amount, any value is accepted and appreciated just for the value you received in the first place. You can also set up a recurring donation, any amount, any frequency.

3:29:03 Noagendadonations.com. Thank you so much. And again, amazing how few birthdays there are in comparison to the amount of donations and nightings and all that stuff. Dame Tamjos of Brickey turns 58 years old today. So happy birthday, Dame Tamjos. And Bri Gibson wishes his wife Paula a very happy birthday. And of course, we join in with him and say happy birthday on behalf of everybody here at the best podcast in the universe. It's your birthday. Title changes. Turn and face the slaves.

3:29:46 Now I'm looking at the title changes. We have Baron Sir Jinn, Watcher of the Stargate, Protector of Fish, Protector of the New England coastal waters, estuaries, and salt marshes. But for some reason, I think I'm missing a whole bunch of these title changes. I'm not sure where everything went. I'm going to see if I find anything here. Well, we'll have to make good on those on the next show because somehow they didn't. Let me just check the email, make sure they didn't wind up here. Here we go. Yes. Sir Kirinos, Baron Kirinos, Sir X Anonymous, becomes Sir Ted.

Sir Mac, a digital knight of Mead, becomes Baronet Mac, a digital knight of Mead. Sir James of Norway, Sir James of Norway, Earl of Settisdahl and Baronet. Michael Robinson becomes Baron of the Willamette Valley. Whew, I'm glad I found all of those. That could have been very disappointing. Now, let us get to the challenge coins. Listen to this. Recipients of the challenge coin: Sir Donald the Fire Bottle, Sir Onymous, James Mulligan, Dame Tamjos of Brickney Hills, Sir Bumpsy of the Tickly Beard, Adrian Sales, Dame of Raccoon Valley, Anonymous, Sir Wolfgang, France, Frank Azenstadt, Sir Mr.

I mean, it's in the back seat. Let me grab it. I got it. Yeah, nice. There are a couple of notes I got to read first. First, for Joe Tirio. We didn't get his note last time, so I will read them to Adam and Tina, Dvorak family, all the friends of the No Agenda family.

3:32:31 In the morning to y'all, I will miss meeting you all here on the first and second Thursdays of the week. While we have only met a few of you in person, I feel a kinship and now a loss that transcends physical distance or personal acquaintance. I grew up with Adam and John. I've listened to all the shows, started, we get to do this, and look forward to following on there. In the meantime, I'm the seated county clerk for McHenry County, running for re-election in the last Red County near Chicago. I need your prayers and your shares. Facebook shares, that is. I'm not the typical politico. I ran for my first office, county recorder, so I could eliminate it. I did that, and I've saved the people of McHenry County over $11 million since then. Visit Iwon'thHireMyWife.com to learn more.

3:33:11 Thank you very much, Joe Trier. Very wise move. I like that. I like that a lot. Dame Rosie, also a make good for her. My partner, John, hit me in the mouth when we started dating in 2015. He recommended Economic Hitman and then said, Well, if you like that, the No Agenda Show has been a fixture in our conversations ever since. You and John are national treasures, truly. I've taught English and journalism in Illinois for 20 years, and God bless you, and have often included content from your show notes into my lessons. Excuse me. Trying to remain courageous and afloat in a sea of activists as they slowly circle the drain. I miss John's intolerance for vague language and fallacies of argument, and how he would call you out on your size.

3:33:54 You're in my prayers, Adam. As you find a path forward, you always do. In the meantime, you're killing it with Sir Dew Dana B was also outstanding. I think that's Sir Dew1 Dana 0.5. Please knight me, Dame Rosie of the High Plains, pot roast. How many J Cal on the zero? No, zero J Cal. Zero J Cal. Please knight me. Well, we'll dame you. Dame Rosie of the High Plains, pot roast and John's favorite, Costco Bordeaux at the roundtable, please. Ordered, as requested, love and light to you, the Keeper of the Dvorak family and John. Thank you for sharing your journey to Christ. It brought me around. Adios, Mofo, says Lisa. Ryan Berger, layaway knight.

3:34:34 I qualified as a knight many years ago and failed to claim it. Until now, I can't express how much you, John, and the show has meant to me. I was hit in the mouth during the 2016 presidential election. Never missed the show since. Be proud of everything you've done and what you've become. You have a great work ahead of you, Adam. In the Lord's hands, the meek truly become mighty. For my knighthood, I'd like to be known as Sir Bergameister Meisterberger. Much love and appreciation. May God bless you and keep you. Thank you, Ryan Berger of Parksville, Kentucky. Another layaway night from Michael Sellers. In the morning, I reached the donation total for knighthood around the time JC was getting his bypass. It has come through nearly 12 years of $5 monthly donations.

3:35:15 Thank you. A few random donations and one executive producer credit as well, accounting below. I requested to be knighted as Sir Oreo. It is my legal middle name, and I am the third generation of my family to have it as either first or middle. I request, of course, Oreos and milk at the roundtable. Oreos are. We need our Oreos are as addictive as cocaine. Where is that? Here's Oreos are just as addictive as cocaine. There you go. Thank you first to Adam and John. May he rest in peace for giving us some entertainment mixed with genuine knowledge and to Dvorak clan for sharing him and your back office talents with the show. Sincerely, Michael Sellers. One more layaway night from August Alexander von Poppel,

3:36:00 known as Chust. As the show is coming to an end, I've decided to finally claim my knighthood. I'd like to be known as Sir August Alexander, keeper of the Catalan cat. At the roundtable, I would like to request Flamse Friitzmetar Sauss and a bottle of Octmore whiskey. So ordered. I want to thank you and the Dvoraks for many years of excellent media deconstruction. I want to thank all the producers past and present for making this monument of a podcast possible. possible.

It's been a very long donation segment, and we're not over yet because we still have some meetup reports, which are quite fantastic to listen to.

3:39:06 Yaza, it is indeed like a party. And here's proof as we listen to the meter report from the flight of the No Agenda Leo Bravo's report. Everybody, it's Leo Bravo. I'm at meetup number 81 at Steelcraft in Long Beach. I want to pass the phone around so that people can leave us some messages. Adam, thank you for your courage.

No Agent family. This is Bob Hicks, and I don't know what to say, but this is great. Hey, this is Eric. I'm surprised Bob actually doesn't have something to say. I don't normally believe in protection, but this connection of protection is what we really need. And I'm going to miss the show. Here we are at number 81 in Long Beach with Leo Bravo and the crew. Well, we got 18 candles lit, and we got one more we're going to light up on Sunday, October 25, representing 19 years of No Agenda.

3:48:57 You either have to be incredibly incompetent or totally blind. No, I think Tallerico. You need to sit and cry over, you know, your whiteness or your masculinity. Yeah, I think that one wins. You've outdone yourself once again. But not leaving yet because here he is with our tip of the day. Green master, you and me, just a chip with JCD. And sometimes at all. Dana Brunetti, the creator of the tip of the day, what is your tip of the day, sir? Well, you didn't like a couple of my past ones, so I brought a couple here. So if you don't like it, I can do another one.

3:49:35 Okay. So the first tip I have is do not install software updates the day they drop or even the day after. Especially not on your Apple products. That is a very bad idea. Have you been, have you gotten bricked by any of this in the past? No, I haven't had any problems, but I know people that have. But I've also always waited. I usually wait, unless it's like a security update where they're like harping like you got to do something because there's something they messed up and you're vulnerable and exposed. Then you do them. Otherwise, wait a few days before you do it. Let all the bugs get worked out. What a genius tip. Yes, a genius tip of the day.

3:50:20 You have another one just in case? Yeah, I got a couple more. Okay. Yeah, yeah. When you go to dinner and you got a couple friends there and people start bickering about how much it is to split it up, use Venmo and just pay the bill and then you just split it up four ways on Venmo. It sends the request for however many people are chipping in and it automatically does the exact number to split it up and then hopefully they you don't have to send reminders to get them to pay you on the Venmo. I can see your daughter rolling her eyes right now saying, oh, okay, Dad, okay, Dad, Gen Xer.

3:50:59 Yeah, okay, I got one more that's one more. One more. All right. These are the people that ship things from the post office. Post office skills. They round. round up. So it's better to weigh your stuff yourself and put your print your own labels. Because if you're shipping a lot of stuff, like over time, that can end up being a lot. If they're rounding up to the next pound, it can be a lot of money over time. I can just hear JCD going, oh, brother. Oh, brother. There it is, everybody. That post office one, he would back. Green faster, you and me. Just the tip with JCD

3:51:42 and sometimes Adam. Created by Dana Brunetti. You'll get two more tips of the day if we're lucky before I'm done. Yes. Built my drink in the truck. Oh, no. Oh, no. What were you drinking? The Paps Blue Ribbon, or what are you drinking? Close. A beer. Not Paps. No. It's a beer. I'm drinking a Robert. What's that? Cavali, whatever that barrel H. Oh, right. Bourbon Barrel A. Yeah, $12. It went from $9.98 to $12 here at HEB. Oh, how are you going to manage? $3 increase on your bottle of wine.

3:52:26 Dana, thank you so much. You know, I love you, man. I appreciate that you did this. And thank you for doing the previous shows as well. Yeah, well, you never know. You never know. Be on the lookout for the book and the documentary. I will be. Hey, by the way, you're talking about the book tour. You don't have a publisher. Who's paying for this book tour? Yeah, well, Alex. Alex is paying for it. We got Jess Baker, end of show mix, and Genevieve Jones will close it out for us. And I will return on Sunday with Jason Callicanis, JK. Until then, remember us at NoAgendadonations.com. Adios Mofos, a hooey-hooey, and such.

3:53:15 In the morning, get my nation. 19 years, still breaking the breaking news. 2007 books at the podium. Pelosi with the gavel. Giles put tomorrow in a pocket full of blast and gravel. Netflix had a loading wheel. The networks had a polished spiel. Two microphones were digging underneath the manufactured field.

3:53:56 From buffering beginnings to algorithmic endings. A billion-dollar echo chamber. Everybody pretending they call it breaking news. We break it down to find the boss. Hear the silence in the sound bites. See the stitching in the scars. 19 years peeling back the paint. Finding fingerprints beneath the things like claim. No strings on the signal. No hands upon the dial. 19 years outside the frame. Still making show with a smile. Value for value. You left the current car round. You can't purchase independence, but you can keep that sound alive.

3:54:44 You can keep it sounding alive. Three by three in Fox. Every channel wears a costume. Same event, a different verb, a different kind of perfume. From sanctions to exemptions, closed straights to open wallets. The headlines sell conclusions while we're questioning the office. Thursday. Dan Brunetti's riding shotgun with the captain. Three shows left without them. Hear the whole damn world reacting. From crackpot to the buskill.

3:55:26 Every clip becomes a clue. John's fingerprints are everywhere and everything they do. JCD challenge coin, John's memory in the mail. 38883 and up through the 29th of October. No corporate hands to answer to no spousal pulling strings. Just producers building something that outlives the ones who sang no strings on the signal, no hands upon the dial. 19 years of hitting miles and making truth worth going miles. Value for value. Hear the whole damn nation sing the best part. podcast in the universe and the people on this thing

3:56:13 in the morning. I really enjoy doing this. I really like just yakking with you. And you know, and for people who are listening, this is exactly the same conversation we have on the phone.

3:56:50 We probably could, on a weekly basis, we could do five hours. Yeah, no, it's a lot of fun, and not that, but you can get you get to kind of it's what I like about it is having a good, even though you're technically an American, you're really a European with American sensibility, and you see things from a perspective. And I think people appreciate this. That's not, I wouldn't say it was abnormal, but it's off color. It's well, it's size, yeah. But it's it's but it's it's unusual. Let's put it that way. It's slightly skewed. A lot of people are saying, This is what I always thought podcasting was going to be.

3:57:34 And we struck a chord in it. I'm not quite sure what it is. I don't know if it's just the eavesdropping or if it's actually that we're interesting slash entertaining. Hopefully, it's a combination. Well, this is a talk show. Essentially, this is not much different than what you hear on talk radio when you have two people that aren't taking calls. I was just thinking, you know, you called me and you said, Okay, I'm up and I'm ready to do the show. And I said, All right, well, I'll call you in a couple minutes and go make a cup of tea. And then you said, Yeah, I'll go make a cup of tea too. And as I was making my tea, I was thinking, Boy, aren't we the perfect married gay couple?

3:58:15 The best podcast in the universe. Adios, Mofo. No need to sit and cry over your whiteness or your masculinity.
