Berlin Wall comes up in 3 chapters across 3 episodes of The No Agenda Show, from November 2014 to February 2015.
The Dutch parliament has reportedly discussed reinstating the military draft in response to perceived Russian aggression. The hosts mock the escalation of fear in Europe, referencing David Hasselhoff's symbolic role in the fall of the Berlin Wall. They suggest that the push toward war is making the general population increasingly anxious.
Commercialization of Tragedy, Public Grieving
The hosts compare the sale of Berlin Wall fragments to the potential commercialization of artifacts from the Bin Laden raid. They argue that the public is being pacified with "trivial tokens" and "militarized opening ceremonies" instead of receiving transparent answers about events like the MH17 crash.
President Barack Obama hosted a Veterans Day concert featuring Willie Nelson, though the performance was described as awkward. The holiday coincided with World Freedom Day, marking the anniversary of the Berlin Wall's fall. While a wax figure of David Hasselhoff was displayed in Berlin, the hosts noted the irony of the U.S. government's treatment of veterans despite public celebrations.
