## About this episode

A massive communications outage in five Northern California counties has triggered an FBI investigation into the deliberate sabotage of AT&T fiber optic lines. The vandalism, which severed 911 services and credit card processing in Humboldt, Mendocino, and Del Norte counties, exposes the critical lack of redundant infrastructure in regional networks. Meanwhile, Guatemalan President Otto Pérez Molina has resigned and faces arrest warrants for customs fraud following a public uprising, a major regional shift largely ignored by American networks in favor of Syrian refugee narratives.

In the European Union, official Frans Timmermans faces scrutiny over migration policies that critics suggest are designed to undermine the Schengen Agreement and create social friction. German Chancellor Angela Merkel has removed limits on asylum seekers, while media outlets utilize viral imagery of the Mediterranean crisis to push environmental agendas, including actress Emma Thompson’s claim linking the conflict to man-made climate change. Domestically, Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack’s call for year-round government feeding of children—punctuated by his "Jaloon" verbal slip—raises questions about the expansion of the welfare state. In the technology sector, the OPM hack is now being linked to the Ashley Madison breach, providing foreign intelligence agencies with unprecedented blackmail leverage over US government workers.

Adam Curry and John C. Dvorak broadcast from a mobile Airstream studio on Galveston Island, navigating the local history of the seawall and encounters with colorful panhandlers. The duo deconstructs the "Zen TV Experiment," urging listeners to strip away audio or video to reveal the manipulative technical events used by mainstream news. The segment concludes with a look at the National Enquirer’s bizarre advertisement for a "Monkey Kid" doll and the pharmaceutical industry’s aggressive marketing of the sleeping pill Belsomra.

A History Channel clip about Nazi Germany's indoctrination of youth is used to draw parallels to the modern American self-esteem movement.

Anonymous US officials claim that foreign spy agencies use private contractors to hide the source of cyber attacks on American systems.

The hosts argue that the attribution of these hacks to specific nations is often based on flimsy evidence provided to the media.

### 20. Misuse of the Term Veteran in News Media (1:20:17–1:22:46)

A listener's letter complains about the media's tendency to refer to police officers with very little experience as "veterans."

### 26. Pharmaceutical Advertisements and Belsomra Side Effects (1:40:26–1:46:07)

The sleeping pill Belsomra is critiqued for its bizarre advertising featuring a "boneless cat" and its extensive list of dangerous side effects. The drug targets "wake messages" in the brain but can cause hallucinations, sleepwalking, and temporary paralysis. The hosts compare the drug's name to "Soma" from Aldous Huxley's Brave New World.

The segment questions the effectiveness of marketing such specialized drugs directly to the general public.

### 28. Truvada PrEP Studies and Media Misinformation (1:50:12–1:54:11)

A Washington Post article claiming 100% effectiveness for the HIV prevention pill Truvada is scrutinized. The hosts point out a correction in the article regarding a different study that showed only 86% effectiveness. They argue that misleading headlines about "pre-exposure prophylaxis" (PrEP) could lead to dangerous behavior and increased infection rates.
