A review of the 2014 Australian holiday calendar reveals a variety of religious and local observances, including Epiphany, Shrove Tuesday, and the Northern Territory Picnic Day. The hosts explore whether these dates could serve as specific donation triggers for the audience. They conclude that many of the holidays are too localized or obscure to form a cohesive national donation model.

The Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (ACTA) has been ratified by the European Union, sparking protests in Poland and Slovenia. A cyberattack on Slovenia's largest bank, attributed to Anonymous, is suspected of being a "false flag" to cover for bank insolvency. The hosts suggest that future bank failures will be blamed on hackers to prevent public panic.

### Bank Holidays, Germs on Paper Money

- **Episode:** [142: Obamaland](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/142-obamaland.md)
- **Published:** 2009-10-25
- **Time:** 36:22–38:36
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/142-obamaland/chapter/bank-holidays-germs-on-paper-money.md

A theory is proposed that the swine flu could be used as a pretext to declare a bank holiday and transition the economy away from paper currency. The hosts suggest that labeling cash as a "petri dish" for germs would allow the government to force a move to RFID-chipped plastic cards and digital transactions. This shift would make the monetary base more manipulable by central authorities.

The hosts discuss the coincidence of the U.S. Columbus Day holiday and Canadian Thanksgiving falling on the same weekend. They mention a popular conspiracy theory that this long weekend could be used for a "bank holiday" similar to those seen during the Great Depression.
