Moneyball comes up in 3 chapters across 3 episodes of The No Agenda Show, from February 2012 to February 2016.
Moneyball Political Strategy, Big Data in Election Campaigns
The hosts debate the application of the "Moneyball" analogy to modern political campaigning and delegate counting. The discussion focuses on how political establishments use big data and statistical modeling to maximize efficiency in districts and gerrymandered areas. They critique the media's use of the term to describe traditional political maneuvering.
Cable Company Wi-Fi Scams and Psychological Operations
The hosts warn of a "scam" where major cable companies offer free Wi-Fi to lock users into their ecosystems and enforce cable credential logins for streaming apps. They also discuss the NDAA 2013 and the legalization of domestic psychological operations. A "special thanks" to the Department of Defense in the film "Moneyball" is cited as evidence of government influence in media.
Doug Wead, an advisor to Ron Paul, explains the campaign's "Moneyball" strategy of focusing on securing delegates rather than winning expensive "beauty contest" straw polls. Wead disputes RNC and media reporting regarding the actual delegate counts for various candidates.
