## About this episode

President Barack Obama’s recent NSA surveillance speech relied on 9/11 propaganda and fear-mongering about basement-built bombs to justify the continuation of bulk data collection. Despite the introduction of a new Presidential Policy Directive, the underlying authority of Executive Order 12333 remains unchanged, allowing the CIA and FBI to maintain broad domestic surveillance powers. The administration’s rhetoric has shifted from protecting civil liberties to a narrower definition of liberty, signaling a push for a Media Shield Law that could effectively license journalists and exclude independent voices like Glenn Greenwald.

Global tensions rise as a Massachusetts Institute of Technology study challenges official claims regarding the Syrian chemical attacks, suggesting rockets were fired from rebel territory rather than government positions. In Turkey, Prime Minister Erdogan faces massive protests over a restrictive internet bill while the lira collapses. Meanwhile, the Fukushima exclusion zone faces a literal invasion of hybrid pigs—a crossbreed of wild boars and domestic swine—occupying abandoned homes as TEPCO pushes a ten-year plan to restart nuclear reactors at the Kashiwazaki-Kariwa plant. Domestically, the Target data breach has funneled millions of consumers toward Experian credit monitoring, while the industry-wide push for PCI DSS compliance imposes crushing costs on small businesses.

Personal moments include a balcony view of Tony Bennett’s unamplified performance in Austin and the high-stakes delivery of a double dip depression slave stew to famous restaurateurs Ron and Peggy Weiss. The search for a mysterious violin concerto playing during the President’s address continues after Soundhound and Shazam failed to identify the piece. Toure Neblet’s full name is revealed, and a listener-built Windows 7 machine is resurrected from a BIOS error.
