FBI Director James Comey previously described the handling of these secrets as extremely careless, yet the report indicates Clinton claimed she did not recall specific security briefings regarding the drone program or classification markings. These findings surfaced as the State Department struggled to provide specific dates for Clinton’s briefings, including the day she received news of Muammar Gaddafi’s death via a Blackberry message. Diplomatic tensions flared at the G20 summit in Hangzhou after Chinese officials refused to provide a rolling staircase for Air Force One, forcing President Obama to exit from the rear of the aircraft. National Security Advisor Susan Rice engaged in a verbal altercation with Chinese security on the tarmac while Obama and Xi Jinping formally ratified the Paris climate agreement. Meanwhile, the Irish government appealed an EU ruling ordering Apple to pay 13 billion euros in back taxes, and Samsung issued a global recall for the Galaxy Note 7 due to exploding batteries. In the United States, President Obama signed an executive order extending the national emergency declared on September 14, 2001, for another year. Adam Curry celebrates his 52nd birthday with a global donor roll call and a coded message from Tina Snyder referencing Thor and Tiger Beat. John C. Dvorak reminisces about Silicon Spin with guest Max Keiser while the duo analyzes a viral video of a Lyft passenger berating a driver over a Hawaiian bobblehead. The segment concludes with a look at the historical necessity of the guillotine as an automation tool for mass executions during the French Revolution. ## Chapters Each chapter's transcript is at its own link.

Potential Replacements for the National Anthem (1:52:07–1:54:32) Following the prediction that the current national anthem is "toast," the hosts evaluate potential replacements. They discuss the merits and drawbacks of "America the Beautiful," "God Bless America," and "My Country, 'Tis of Thee," noting that the latter uses the same melody as the British national anthem.

Reverse Speech Analysis of Clinton and Trump (1:54:32–2:03:35) The hosts explore the theory of "reverse speech," which posits that the unconscious mind speaks backwards simultaneously with forward speech. They play several examples from the 2016 conventions, including clips where Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders supposedly reference "Satan" when their speeches are played in reverse. The hosts ultimately remain skeptical of the findings.

Climate Change Linked to the Syrian Civil War (2:03:41–2:05:10) Public media reports suggest a link between a five-year drought in Syria, caused by climate change, and the rise of ISIS.

Hurricane Hermine and Shifting Climate Models (2:05:10–2:09:48) Meteorologists discuss why the United States went ten years without a major hurricane strike despite climate models predicting increased storm frequency. The narrative has shifted to suggest that while storms may not be more frequent, they will become more intense with stronger winds and heavier rain. The hosts mock the "skill" of short-term climate modeling.

ISIS as a Revolutionary Movement and Africa Expansion (2:18:03–2:22:23) An analyst on RT compares ISIS to historical revolutionary movements like the French and Bolshevik Revolutions, noting their use of terror to preserve their ideology.

YouTube Demonetization and Brand Safety Guidelines (2:26:37–2:30:29) Prominent YouTubers like Philip DeFranco are facing "demonetization" as Google enforces stricter "brand-safe" advertising guidelines. Content featuring strong language or controversial news topics is being flagged as ineligible for ads. The hosts argue this is a form of soft censorship and reinforces the necessity of their own value-for-value donation model.

Apple Tax Ruling and Irish Government Appeal (3:04:46–3:07:07) The Irish government has decided to appeal an EU ruling that ordered Apple to pay 13 billion euros in back taxes.
