Dvorak

nation media
assassination episode this is
no agenda
[Music]
curry from northern Silicon
Valley where
I am now self-identifying as an
American
Indian I'm John Sita Bora now
you can
see the point is you're
supposed to do
that
on your entrance to things not
not when
you're exiting everything that
is truly
one of the most beautiful
stories of of
the week Elizabeth Warren
somebody
digging up an old form that
American
Indian as race what a hit job
Roger
stone no it's now stones out of
commission there's people
who've learned
from him though yeah must be
if you don't know we're talking
about
Elizabeth Warren who we
actually called
Pocahontas years before Donald
Trump so
we had to stop doing it yeah we
so on
top of the DNA tests on top of
everything yeah I actually have
a have
her apology and do you have
anything you
want to play from a couple of
clips but
but you know one of the things
I was
thinking about before I play
these clips
is that she was born and raised
in
Oklahoma where there's a lot of
people
believe that their Cherokee or
some
other you know Oklahoman tribe
is their
ancestry sure so I decided to
look her
up look up look her up for her
cuz this
is possible that somebody's
told her
this and yes because that's her
story
Indian look you're not the
hygiene this
is exactly what's in my clip so
I'll
play this as a that you can
hear her
apology which is exactly this
before you
do let me just continue okay so
I went
and looked of all oral high
school
pictures
to see what she looked like in
high
school to see if she looked
anything
like an American and he may be
you know
just a little bit of somewhat
you know
the cheekbones anything mm-hmm
no not even close she's actually
gorgeous as a high school girl
very
attractive and then she started
taking
very slowly evolved that
certain kind of
looked at liberal women somehow
Gatos
kind of a kind of a weird smile
she did
she always have the short hair
no no she
had a variety yes yes I think
that's
what it is it's the really it's
the
short hair the bob that's
that's kind of
the trademark well we all you
mean once
you turn liberal which is the
one where
she's looks the most like the
snotty
liberal that you run into these
girls
are know-it-alls
and yes you've got all of a
sudden has
developed kind of a doing way
to people
how to have maybe more sports or
inclined she has that that John
Elway
smile which is like this forest
kind of
oval smile which is very
classic and she
knew he came from Stanford oh
yes she's
got a kind of a bob and the
hair was
long earlier and then she got
just look
about her well but but none of
it was
Indian but what you just said
gives me
an out for her she can be on the
Wheaties box she looks like a
sports
star you looking at her
pictures no no
she's got the smile of a guy
Mike's
probably included her cuz she I
do have
the same I think it's within
these two
clips I have but play yours
we'll see
where we go okay this is from
Fox News
where they broke away to get
some to get
specific questions about this
latest
controversy where she hand
wrote her her
race is American Indian on her
Texas bar
applica our application
prompter by the
way this is I think it's Shep
Shep Smith
and this was Dec who sent me
this clip
you can hear at the beginning
this is
something you don't hear often
but this
is very typical of television
where
they're coming out of the break
and the
teleprompter has not yet put up
the text
and so I think this is Shep
Smith he's
going prompter prompter prompter
Elizabeth Warren here that yeah
I love
those moments Elizabeth Warren
is
speaking about her history of
claiming
Cherokee Indian heritage on
applications
and otherwise the most recent
application for the Texas bar
wherein
she herself wrote exactly that
as
witnessed here Warren started
speaking
during the commercial break so
we DVR'd
it for you and we'll play it
from where
we began recording listen why
did you
miss your self as an American
on this
Texas bar you've used this part
of your
background to get ahead and are
you
saying that this is something
you
fundamentally believed about
yourself or
how do you respond to that
criticism
that this was a knowing attempt
to get
ahead by using that claim of
ancestry is
a claim that has been fully
investigated
and it has now been completely
that
nothing about my background
ever had anything to do with
any job I
got in any place it's been fully
documented
there's no evidence any kind of
others
anymore are there any more
documents or
any more forms like this
austerity that
you have listed yourself as I
grew up
believing with my brothers this
is our
family story yes it's the story
but I
think she's lying when she says
that
it's been documented and
investigated
that she never had a nobody
cares
nobody's documented
investigated a
writer you're right what am I
even
thinking but listen to the big
boys
talking about this and I have
the two
CBS in this case the negress is
effort
by the way CBS version and it's
about
how she's actually rewritten I
this is
very worth very much worth
whatever I
don't know what kind of phrase
I'm
trying to come up with they're
using
valuable airtime it's worth it
I take
your word for it
the senator from Massachusetts
apologized today after a
decades-old
document surface that shows
Warren
declared herself to be an
American
Indian Nancy Cordes has more on
this I'm
not a tribal citizen and I
should have
been more just more mindful of
the
distinction Massachusetts
senator
Elizabeth Warren apologized
today for
listing American Indian as her
race
after being accepted to the
Texas Bar
Association in 1986 this is who
I grew
up believing with my brothers
this is
our family story but family
stories are
not the same as tribal
citizenship and
this is why I have apologized
Warren launched a presidential
exploratory committee in
December I'm in
this fight all the way but
she's been
dogged by her decision decades
ago to
list herself as Native American
at the
University of Pennsylvania and
Harvard
University and drew fire from
Cherokee
tribal leaders
last year when she tried to put
the
issue behind her with a highly
publicized DNA test followed
very
closely this is a rewrite she's
rewriting history the fact was
when she
had her DNA test it turned out
that
there were no real Native
American
genomes anything that they can
compared
her to and they had to use
South of
South American huh
markers and so she the best she
could do
is have a couple of ticks off
the box
I'm some South American tribe
or the
Incas or who knows what they
were
talking about or I don't know
but now
she's making it sound as though
oh wait
a minute yeah you have so you
get you
definitely the who were this
recording
come from we never heard this
before
some bogus recording of a guy
tell me we
did yes no no no no yes we most
definitely did this was like it
was a
either her husband's brother it
was some
some family relation and he
worked at
the DNA company and he's not I
don't
think he's even qualified to
analyze it
and he's the one that got on
the phone
and that hokey video they did
and and
hold on here's the his that bit
again
and drew fire from Cherokee
tribal
leaders last year when she
tried to put
the issue behind her with a
highly
publicized
DNA test I love the facts
suggests
that's the best part
definitely and suggests work
together
fact-check Falls well anyway so
she got
herself in a heap of trouble
here and
then now she's rewriting it to
make it
sound as if if it wasn't for
those damn
Cherokee tribal leaders yes who
don't
recognize her who don't
recognize her
she'd be good to go yes when his
bullcrap
but anyway so let's oh she's in
it this
is a problem for her but she
might be
able to they maybe you know
blow over
and she can still maybe take a
shot at
things but I don't think so but
let's
play part two or they kind of
just put
some icing on this cake the
chair of the
Republican National Committee
filed a
grievance with the Texas bar
today
saying attorney Warren should be
disciplined for lying in blood
but many
Democrats argue the real
controversy is
the president's ongoing racial
insensitivity when talking
about Warren
Warren insisted today that she
wasn't
seeking special treatment when
she
listed herself as Native
American and
that she was never hired
because of it
but it could complicate her
next job
application because Jeff she is
set to
formally launch her bid for the
presidency in just four days
and she's
really going to go through with
the
announcement it really seems
like she's
gonna try just ignore this well
she made
a huge mistake when she didn't
run
against Hillary or take them
take them I
mean she would have won I mean
everybody's doing it here I've
paid
careful attention to people
like me me a
lifelong Republican it was she
was all
in to vote for Elizabeth what
does Mimi
think of Liz now she thinks
she's a big
phony
okay dodged the bullet XV yeah
she would
have gotten anything done cause
she's a
big talker and no big talk no
action
woman well but we're in this
situation
by the way I want to mention
that CBS
managed to turn it on Trump
somehow well
of course what else is new but
we're in
this interesting situation and
I'm
referring specifically to
Virginia where
yeah we
Scott has become so easy to
discredit
almost anybody based upon what
they've
done in the past and you know
thanks
internet thanks storage you
know thanks
to scanners that's the
technology thanks
to technology really the only
person you
can elect for elective office
has yet to
be the biggest dud
ever well what's you take a
look so we
have this the governor who
appeared in
blackface but then he said no
that
wasn't me I did do blackface
once at a
Michael Jackson a dance contest
which I
have to say coming from the
Netherlands
I remember in the late 70s
early 80s
when Michael Jackson just just
when he
still had the the afro there
were tons
of dance competitions at
schools and
there was always some kid who
would be
you know in blackface with the
with the
big fro wig and would dance
their ass
off and we'd be like oh my god
it's just
like Michael Jackson and you
know now of
course I have you know all
kinds of
privilege but at the time it
didn't seem
like anyone you know just
seemed like
there was less inflammatory I
don't know
of course we had black kids
there was
the Netherlands you know we had
black
kids and we still still have
the black
Petes you know there's some you
got to
put some context into it
blackface the
Al Jolson blackface minstrel
show is
very different than emulating
Michael
Jackson or any black person for
that
reason which is why Jimmy
Kimmel and
Fallon are very quiet right now
you
haven't heard them made a lot
of jokes
about Ralph Northam in Virginia
because
there's tons of video of them
doing
skits in blackface yeah I
wouldn't be
surprised why I do have the
rundown on
this situation the latest which
included
the third guy now are these hit
jobs too
or is this just I mean where's
this
coming from
I don't know but the punch line
this has
got a punch line to it's a
little longer
for a clip but it's I believe
it's from
CBS and it has all the
up-to-date
information i hey every time I
was
clipping this all during the
week it's
like it's oh god they got a new
guy
another third guy
reclip hilarious Virginia mess
first it
was the governor then the
lieutenant
governor now the state attorney
general
the top three leaders in the
state all
Democrats all facing deep
controversy
the latest is Attorney General
Mark
herring who admitted today that
he once
wore blackface at a college
party ed
O'Keefe has more on the chaos
in the
Commonwealth Virginia Democratic
lawmakers were in no mood to
discuss the
latest scandal to Rock Richmond
Attorney
General Mark herring admitting
that he
also once dressed in blackface
has an undergraduate in 1980 he
said in
a statement he and friends went
to a
party as rappers we dressed up
and put
on wigs and brown makeup he
added I have
a glaring example from my past
that I
have thought about with deep
regret in
the many years since when word
reached
the State House there were
audible gasps
and expletives from staffers
some
lawmakers hung their heads in
disbelief
and this from the head of the
Virginia
legislative Black Caucus Lamont
Bagby
like I said we're not praying
enough the
scandal rocking it all the way
up to
Washington today's bombshell
comes just
days after Haring called for
governor
Ralph Northam to resign over a
racist
photo including a man in
blackface that
was discovered on his medical
school
yearbook page I am NOT either
of the
people in that photo after that
news
conference herring had said it
is no
longer possible for the
governor to lead
Virginia Northam remains out of
sight as
he contemplates his political
future
he's meeting with black leaders
and may
hire a private investigator to
prove
it's not him in the photo then
there's
lieutenant governor just in
Fairfax on
now where's al Sharpton where's
where's
Rover now he'll be around I
mean what
all this guy has to do is pay
off Rev Al
and then Reverend I will bless
him and
you know hug and it'll be a big
press
conference it'll be good to go
but I
don't think Reverend Al's not
here
suddenly or maybe maybe these
guys don't
know how it works it may hire a
private
investigator to prove it's not
him in
the photo then
lieutenant-governor Justin
fairfax who's
facing an allegation of sexual
assault
during the Democratic National
Convention in 2004 today his
accuser
Vanessa Tyson put out a lengthy
statement saying she's a
Democrat and is
sharing her story with
tremendous
anguish she says she had gone
to Fairfax
his hotel room to retrieve
documents and
that after consensual kissing
mr.
Fairfax forced him to perform
oral sex
on him Fairfax has repeatedly
denied the
allegation and responded today
saying
reading dr. Tyson's account is
painful I
have never done anything like
what she
suggests as all three men
consider their
next steps
Virginia's line of succession
states
that if Northam steps down
Fairfax would
take over then herring and next
in line
Republican Kirk Cox Speaker of
the House
or the jewel there it is one
seat
majority twist worthy of the
movies the
race for that one seat and it
is David
Yancey and was decided when the
name of
the Republican winner was
pulled out of
a ceramic bowl what what is
sort of
ceramic bowl huffed is it
wasn't a white
bowl it was a surrett it was a
bowl with
the date they ended up with a
tie at the
end of the legislative session
for who's
gonna Democrat a Republican
whoever wins
and it was a it was a tie a
perfect tie
they would pick the name out of
a bowl
and it was the Republican so the
Republicans a guy by one vote
who gets
to be the next governor if they
live all
these guys fall apart this was
possible
but I'm so this was a porcelain
bowl
ceramic oh I thought tiles
ceramic bowls
because that that has the
implications
of a toilet well done good
reporting
okay so now this does ceramic
balls
system this does give a a
different
slant if we now after these
three guys
are annihilated now the a
Republican
could wind up governor this is
a move
yes fantastic great move oh man
yeah the
this this morning some someone
on
Twitter which is I think
something a
phrase I use a lot someone on
Twitter
it would just forgot tweeted
out a clip
of the view from 2016 Joy Behar
defending this 2016 now
defending her
costume was she dressed up as
an African
American the New York Times
they had an
op-ed piece in praise of
naturally curly
hair they say that it's making a
comeback which I've always had
curly
statement picture now I know
I was soaked you're in the
circle 29 it
was a Halloween party I went as
a
beautiful African woman oh yes
that is
me did you have tanning lotion
on I had
makeup that was a little bit
that's my
actual hand love it though do
you hear
the obsession with well it was
just
makeup a little darker wasn't
really
blackface and my hair is really
curly I
didn't I didn't do anything
wrong
wow that's a great clip it's
kind of I
like to have seen that clip cuz
you'd
have to know him if Whoopi was
under the
ocean you know she was not
sadly you
know broke up with Ted Danson
for
showing up in blackface once
when they
were I forgot about that you
jeez so
what'd be would have gone off
on her oh
man but you know it the end is
not near
because now the New York Times
even I
wrote a reason those op-ed but
an
article how Mary Poppins is
racist what
yes Mary Poppins is racist
because nanny
amix was at Nanny McPhee
I don't know the story oh it's a
beautiful story and it's coming
back I
know that when they go down the
chimney
there her face gets covered in
soot but
instead of wiping it off she
gamely I'm
reading from the article she
gamely
powders her nose and cheeks
even blacker
then she leads the children on
a dancing
exploration of London rooftops
with Dick
Van Dyke sooty chimney sweep
Bert so and
this is quite a still dilled
show
they're talking about yeah well
yes the
new one does she come down a
black fish
in the new movie I don't know I
haven't
I haven't seen it I did even
out I don't
know I haven't seen the new
movie
she doesn't but even but come
on forget
if it's forget if it's a well
I'm gonna
but I'm just gonna take decide
that if
you're gonna call everybody out
for
doing this no of course there
is new now
fifty years ago a hundred years
ago
whenever including blacks who
did it
most of the minstrel shows the
blacks
had to put on blackface
just because they did be darker
which
really revealed in a recent
Broadway
play with which documented all
this this
era it's like you got a year
they're all
in or you're all out
that's why I think the black
Piet thing
is gonna be done for let me see
I'm
looking at this article the
black Piet
thing is never gonna be done
for the
Dutch won't allow it put up
with a lot
it's gonna turn out that black
Piet is
contributing to global warming
well
there's that
global warming yeah sad this
point in
history we've but is quite
funny for our
show is dynamite yes super
horse to me
show it's great it's gotta be
laughing
yes exactly I would like to
stay with
the candidates for 2020 for a
moment and
I'll start that with the jingle
see gather
anything but Haggard
[Music]
that's Tom Sweeny
right here in Austin s'more
jingle than
her political career will be
I'm afraid
it's kind of kind of over to who
for Tulsi Gabbard oh yeah poor
Tulsi so
now NBC came out I think we may
have
discussed this on Sunday and
had a
report from new knowledge the
austin-based company that wrote
the
bullcrap report for the
Intelligence
Committee which no one
references that
anymore
no one says hey by the way
these a-holes
who then subsequently got deep
platform
from Facebook because they were
using
the same Russian tactics they
reported
on to the congressional the
Senate
committee they use the same
tactics in
the special election in Alabama
they got
deep platform for it but yet
these guys
somehow are now credible to say
we see
websites in BOTS tweeting about
Tulsi
Gabbard looks like the Russians
are on
her side week she's gotta be
she can't
take seriously she's Putin's
puppet
Putin's puppet if the hijab
couldn't get
any better David Duke just
endorsed her
I mean come on to be working
for the
other side of course he is
can you imagine you okay Dave
here's who
we want you to endorse just of
kiss of
death endorsement company yeah
kiss of
death endorsement company is
that an
acronym we can use codec I like
it codec
codec the kiss of death
endorsement
company well luckily we have a
Democrat
liberal Glenn Greenwald to push
back on
this and here he is and he
actually he
he did something that I've
never really
heard him say or this actually
I don't
think I've ever heard him
make this at this kind of
accusation
when it comes to a political
fracas
they claimed in a screaming
headline
that predictably went viral
that she was
the Kremlin's favorite
candidate one of
the reporters who wrote the
story
tweeted which they the Kremlin
has a
crush on Tulsi Gabbard
something that if
it were about a democratic
favorite
would even denounce not just as
adolescent but also sexist yes
and of
course this is all part of the
broader
context where the Democratic
Party has
this maniacal obsession with
Russia if
you try and debate anything
with them
about the war in Syria or the
ongoing
viability of NATO or troops in
Afghanistan they just start
babbling
about the Kremlin and Vladimir
Putin in
accusing you of being a Russian
agent
and it's like some kind of like
neuro
malfunction or or a mania at
this point
and what's amazing he's doing
this to
Tulsi Gabbard she was a
democratic star
just four years ago when she
was first
elected MSNBC said the first
Asian woman
elected to the Democratic to
the Senate
to the house in US history
she's an Iraq
war veteran on the fast track
to fame
they made her a vice chairwoman
of the
Democratic National Committee
and now
suddenly they're smearing her
as an
asset of the Kremlin using
extremely
dubious journalistic tactics
for which
NBC has become notorious on
behalf of
both the CIA and the DNC I've
never
heard Glenn green Glen Glen
Greenwald
accused that and linked it to
the CIA
that's kind of a first for him
I like
that yeah well he wrote a long
article
on this and the intercept that
yeah yeah
just condemned but to hold all
this
practice of they was just
trying to
destroy Tulsi Gabbard in in the
article
he did not mention he doesn't
have the
background on new knowledge
that's the
part that he's missing he's
missing that
these got these were the guys
that wrote
the report that was heralded by
everybody did slam new
knowledge in his
article okay well yes but I
think why I
thought he could have expands a
little
more I have a second he was on
Tucker
actually from his hideout in
Brazil at
the second clip about the
neo-cons
moving from
the right to the left I thought
was just
worth worth taking along here
in 2014
and you can go google this
there's an
article in The New York Times
are not
bad by someone who has tried
tracked
neo-cons for a long time saying
that it
was clear that there was rising
isolationism and anti-war
sentiment in
the Republican Party and
neo-cons were
therefore migrating back to the
Democrats especially an
excitement over
the prospect that Hillary
Clinton would
be the nominee for president in
2016 and
that she essentially has a
neocon
foreign policy she supported
the war in
Iraq she supported regime
change in
Libya she was highly critical
of Obama
for not doing more in Libya for
not
arming anti-russian factions in
Ukraine
they love Hillary Clinton and
they were
migrating back to the
Democratic Party
so Democrats have become
reunited with
neo-cons so anyone who deviates
from the
neocon agenda whether on the
left or on
the right instantly gets
accused of
being an asset or a stooge of
the
Kremlin and that's what they
did in NBC
in this case relied on a firm
that just
got caught six weeks ago
fabricating
Russia data they got kicked off
Facebook
for doing it and that was NBC's
leading
quote expert for claiming that
chatter
shows that the Kremlin is now
favoring
toasty Gaza there you go
you still missin a port part
yeah you
know the funny thing if you
don't
realize that the neo-cons all
these war
mongers that took over the Bush
administration the guy that wolf
Wolfowitz was the World Bank
it's a
whole bunch of them and they're
all
identifiable i'm john bolton
how about
that john bolton yeah they're
making
some headway into the trump
administration not on a white
trumpet
yeah we do know because they're
all
involved in weird sex shit that
they
can't talk about oh that could
be
whatever the case they they were
originally Liberal Democrats
from the
sixties the sixties style
Liberal
Democrat which does involve
often from
that era the pre-aids are a lot
of kinky
sex
so they revolve and they've
some of the
Democrat Party get didn't want
these
guys and so they all became
Republicans
the party thing was a non-issue
to them
they just wanted to write
because have
our create war take over the
world they
wrote papers about it you can
read about
American new century I think is
one of
them a project for a new
American
Century up right yeah that
which is the
Teaneck which is the document
that said
we need a new Pearl Harbor
maybe someone
could fly an airplane into with
the
world trade tower legend said
that
specifically but that's what
they were
hinting at came pretty damn
close so
yeah that's good they should be
out of
they should form their own
party who
knew it neo-cons neocon party
Oh sounds
like a winner you know I bet
you I bet
you someone could twist that
and make
people buy it I think I think
it's
doable some pretty a little bit
of
Bearnaise sauce on there and
you're good
to go it just takes a lot of
Bernays
before we get to the State of
the Union
which you do need to talk about
I'd like
to preface it with a couple of
short
clips from
pod save the privileged I'm
sorry pod
save America which is Alea this
is your
new beat yeah yeah I've been
listening
some podcasts and getting some
stuff so
these are the positive America
very very
successful podcast although I
think
they're doing some weird stuff
because
they don't have a show every
day and and
they had a show before the
state of the
day before the State of the
Union didn't
have one
the day after didn't have one
today
instead doing these shows on
the road
and so they can't record you
know that
they can only record when
they're on
stage too hard but they're
making a lot
of money I mean doing these
theater
shows I mean that's that's a
bank
thank for them but you know and
you can
hear they're kind of tired over
like
okay we're gonna travel here
travel
there that's really their of
their main
income although although I do
have we
can decide if we want to play
it I do
have one of their live reads
but we'll
start off this is pre the State
of the
Union from pod save the
privilege is
what I call them now and you
know
they're former speech writers
for Obama
two of them and so they start
talking
about speech writing and you
know and I
I don't know anything about
speech
writing I know that Obama had
some great
jokes he he could deliver
Humpty Dumpty
and it would sound great but
these guys
kind of take all the credit for
that but
they also like to slam Trump's
writer in
advance of anything and here it
is
Stephen Miller is such a bad
writer
offend you guys as former well
I made a
speechwriter he's someone that
can't
even put together a sentence is
writing
these things I mean it's hard
to get
past the racism with Stephen
Miller
that's upfront so you don't
usually get
to the fact that even if he
weren't so
racist his writing would be
really bad I
was just a bad writer right
look if
there were if there were if
this was a
normal Republican president
Stephen
Miller would have applied to be
speech
writer and his would not have
made it
out of the first pile because
there
would've been a pile of better
speeches
and then they'd been like oh
who was oh
that racist guy yeah yeah well
we didn't
even get to that when we were
we were
redefining his speeches
George Bush's policies
horrendous
horrendous policies Michael
Gerson
pretty good speechwriter
yeah great speaker choosing
greatness is
like a bad motivational speaker
you
might hear at halftime of a
high school
football game that is the theme
I don't
know much about writers but
well I don't
know much about high school
football
games except that was in high
school
once and I don't remember any
motivational speaker coming out
and
giving us a big pep talk what
school
these guys go to I'm sure some
privileged preppy school I
don't know
but I just thought you know if
you're a
writer is that how you talk
about other
writers I guess you know I
guess really
the sleaze balls that do that
there's a
lot of them yeah well they're
on this
show
they they lord it over
everybody they've
just condemned the other riders
that are
complete condemned the
competition is
what it amounts to and that is
what it's
a fact that they dare that in
public
cause is usually always behind
the scene
yeah that's kind of weak that's
beast
beyond weak that is very lame
yeah and
it is extremely douchey these
guys are
douchebags
wait for it so now they're
going to talk
about the Democratic answer the
counters
state of the union by Stacey
Abrams yeah
the one who lost they bring her
out just
the best they can do well
listen to the
hagiography they perform on her
the
Democrats have chosen former
Georgia
House Minority Leader Stacey
Abrams to
deliver the response to trump
guys how
tough is this job what do you
think of
the decision and what do you
want to
hear from Stacey Abrams
I think it's an inspired choice
Sam she
is one of the most exciting
candidates
who ran last cycle
unfortunately she did
not win but that doesn't mean
she
doesn't have a bright future in
the
party great choice and she's
brilliant
we love Stacey Abrams you know
I would
say it is a it is a very very
tough job
to do this the speech that she
gave on
election night and then the
follow-up
speech she gave when she
refused to
concede when she accepted the
results
that refused to concede were
two of the
best speeches I've heard from a
democratic politician in years
she's
brilliant she also just wrote
this
really fantastic piece in
foreign policy
magazine about places it is
brilliant
and III defies you're going to
be seen I
defy someone to find a
politician who
writes in that kind of academic
style so
brilliantly in either party
yeah in
politics today actually you
know what I
appreciate about it is actually
it
reminds me also it reminds me
of you
know she's not writing it to
make a case
for herself as a candidate
she's saying
here's what I believe here's a
kind of
politics I ascribe to that will
guide me
in the future and it reminds me
also if
so a lot of the early writing of
Elizabeth Warren that was not
geared
around helping her win but just
sort of
laying out an ideological case
for a
kind of economic politics and
this was
laying out an ideological case
for a
kind of identity politics that
she just
defended and in a really
thoughtful and
smart way
she's so inspiring she's just
the best
writer ever you should read
this piece
if you have an informed policy
magazine
it's about identity politics
and how
it's good and it brings us
together it's
it's it's like whoa their
foreign
policies the magazine you read
if you
want to see what to see the
Council on
Foreign Relations is up to what
they're
trying to push hmm well maybe
that's why
she's there
maybe she it seems like she's
being
pushed cuz when I looked after
the State
of the Union I saw yeah of
course after
the after the Democratic
response
yeah like AHA she's a rising
star she's
great yeah Chuck Schumer wants
her to
run for Senate it's like okay
that's
fine
well I watched her I don't know
what the
fuss is about no I didn't read
her
material and I by the way which
I which
I doubt she wrote by the way
tell me she
wasn't on green screen she was
talking I
didn't watch her live and I was
watching
on a small on the top oh you've
got to
see it it's no it's so it's so
pathetic
they had good they had I think
well
here's what happened they had
her in a
in a room and it did have a I
don't
think it was a green background
of his a
background and it just felt
really dead
and so they said oh we got to
put some
people behind her and had this
b-roll
footage and they keyed her on
top of it
because it wasn't green screen
the key
the outline of her her hair her
whatever
she was wearing or jacket or
sweater it
was you could see it I mean
I've been
around television long enough
this break
is superimposed and it's just
like yeah
par for the course you phonies
couldn't
even get a crowd in to have her
do this
speech was which is about her
and her
family and her dad and yeah I
guess it
was inspired but what yeah
inspired by
Hannah hook it into me or I'm
I'm
inspirational and then I think
we can
play this the pot save the
privilege
boys go from all this
hoity-toity nough
straight into a NAD+ Americans
by Oatley Oatley is the vegan
plant-based oat milk originally
from
Sweden now available in the
u.s. sound
like they're really into this
product
ringing of insincerity weight
gets
better because they're gonna
try and
play it off as well listen to
this here
we go
actually this is really an ad
for the
crooked media ad department
because look
at Oatley they invent oat milk
in the
90s and managed to make more
than enough
of it to keep Swedes happy for
25 years
they bring their nice little
oat milk to
the US run some ads on the pot
and boom
they get cleaned out they
probably
thought running it out in the
pod would
make their lives better you
know just to
introduce a few Americans to
oat milk
but it made their lives a lot
worse now
they have to build a bunch of
oat milk
factories just to keep up with
the
demand I bet they didn't think
this
would happen monsters this is a
boring
story and there's three people
that host
this show in Los Angeles who is
Tom
Oates stories hey there's
someone on the
there's somebody how do you see
how this
is going off the rails these
guys they
can't do it they have to make
fun of it
they can't take it seriously
they can't
bring themselves to actually
read the ad
and just try and sell the
product they
have to sneak in there and all
kinds of
little nuances that they I mean
they
have to do this but we're
really above
it you see on the wire there's
been some
wires cross because I don't see
any name
here and I hear somebody else
oak based
editor the point is we are
taking 100%
of the credit for making Oatley
famous
and their lives measure
meaningfulness
of course there's a slight
chance that
only taste so good that people
just like
to buy a lot of it people like
Tommy or
that it's sustainable in people
like
that because they're interested
in
having a planet to live on in
the future
I think we should just take the
credit
okay yeah it's all us
alright what was the name of
the product
John the oatmeal my point
exactly
oat ly that's right pod saved
the
priviledge talkin nut milk good
work
boys
well you think one of them
would have at
you me if they had it there and
they
could all drink it and see what
they
think of it cuz they probably
wouldn't
like it uh I'm sorry that we
had that
you have to do this I don't
have to but
I kind of feel good about doing
it as
well it's an odd way and I like
listening to their show it's
like it
just wow
alright these guys definitely
think
differently than me differently
different different ideas it's
okay
that's what's good different
ideas it's
all good that's slam writers uh
that guy
can't write okay write can't
write maybe
they just talk about podcasting
for a
second before we go in the
state of the
union caste I mean go
podcasting till
confirmed Spotify acquired
gimlet media
and anchor and they now will be
folded
into the Spotify business
mm-hmm and I
went back and reviewed we
actually have
two proposals that we received
one from
Spotify one from Pandora and I
gotta
tell you this we can't do this
we can
never go to one of these
outfits because
when I read between the lines
and this
is more from my own experience
and
public knowledge not necessarily
something that they sent me
you've been
taken already is that it's
going to be
these podcasts will no longer be
playable anywhere but on
Spotify Spotify
app which is not necessarily a
bad thing
but if you don't pay you will
be getting
ads and there's a sufficient
suspicion
that you'll be getting ads even
if you
are paying because they really
have to
recoup this investment and yeah
you've
got people on the service and
using it
but I think a lot of people
will you
know continue with the the free
which is
what the bulk of their
listeners are is
free and that's based on
advertising and
you won't be able to skip past
the ads
which is another thing that's
going to
be better either complicated
but just the fact that all of
their
deals surround some type of
advertising
makes our show impossible for
that this
can't happen wouldn't be a show
well why
don't we put together something
special
for them no that's not our show
it's we
still do our show and they will
do the
spotify version um no I'm not I
can't I
can't bring myself to do tell
me man
wait is it that cool stuff from
Sweden I
keep hearing about
yeah I was it was really good
as we say
in Sweden nutmilk
yes could I maybe we could do it
actually wasn't that bad I
think we
could so can we conclude this
executive
meeting yeah it's a dud it's
it's not
for us but however there is I
did find a
service which I'll be talking
about
somewhere down the road finally
did what
I've been looking for they have
a
blanket license for all music
yeah yes
and you can but it's not about
streaming
cuz you know if I do it like
the daily
source code if I brought that
back which
I would really like to I'm not
so
worried about you know a couple
hundred
people listening while I do it
live on
the stream but these guys have
it so you
can download it put it on your
phone
listen to it wherever you are
no ads and
of course you have to pay for
it but
it's you know this is the
pricing I
think is what's interesting
what they're
doing you think you have to pay
like a
minimum of $2.99 a month to
subscribe to
a channel that has whatever
music is in
it no matter how many shows are
in there
and and all the royalties for
the
artists are paid out of that
and the
rest goes to the as they call
create or
but here's the cool thing you
can put
any amount you want and the
creator
himself can say here's the
minimum
amount so it's kind of like a
monetization platform all in
one the way
you can actually play music
which is the
only thing I've been wanting to
do for
10 years longer than that 15
years
so for daily source code
there's some
opportunities and also not
including
advertising I just can't do it
I've
listened to these pods save the
privileged guys I I can't I
can't do it
I can't do it seriously anymore
I used to well you're
condemning them
because they can't do it I'm
condemning
them because they're not taking
it
seriously and they're just you
know
they're so embarrassed by it
even trying
they're not even trying really
you know
they tried to write a little
skit it's
just lame now but that's all
because
they can't be writers big the
segment's
closed good work so we'll stay
here but
we do need your help so we can
continue
to do things like what were you
doing
you're looking at Elizabeth
Warren's
that's value for value right
there you
made my podcasting partner go
look at
Liz Warren pictures danger pay
I say
danger pay isn't as in order
well we can
start off talking about this
the State
of the Union speech with NBC's
in this
case it was compilation that
they did
write off this is MSNBC take on
so to
blaming bite and it's kind of an
interesting an interesting
little tidbit
they took the State of the
Union speech
and instead of analyzing no no
no
they're gonna take the State of
the
Union speech and then put some
old trunk
material in there where he's
been
slamming somebody little more
state of
the union's slamming somebody
slamming
slamming slamming stir and then
they're
going ah he's a horrible person
yeah I
think these guys are so stupid
that they
allow they have all the Trump
Slams of
Biden and it it's like they're
condemning Trump for slamming
biting but
at the same time they're
letting all
this anti bite and propaganda
go over
the air even though they're
supposedly
mocking it I'm wondering
whether they
hate biting and they're doing
this on
purpose and letting Trump
ticked it's
like you know well this guy
said this
and you play a clip of him even
though
it's
you think you know John what I
think is
happening right now is there so
many
contenders potentially for the
2020
United States election which is
just
ridiculous that we're gonna I
refuse to
talk about it for the next two
years but
okay we'll have to do something
all
these different stations are all
different fractions CNN is
choosing
their people M NBC NBC News is
choosing
their people in it and they're
doing it
too well first of all the kind
of
vetting you know who has access
to money
so the one who's kind of quiet
right now
is bet oh hey but he showed up
on Oprah
I know Oprah's own Network and
he said
I'll let something know by the
end of
the month you know he's doing
the rounds
and and the the media outlets
are just
seeing okay who really has the
capability to spend a lot of
money
advertising with us and they
promote
them yeah and they probably
exactly what
it is and they of course the
big-money
person who will come in late in
the game
because she's learned her
lesson is not
to not to commit too early yeah
and that
is Hillary but let's just
listen to this
little bit here it's pretty
funny this
is the time to rekindle the
bonds of
love and loyalty and memory
that link us
together as citizens as
neighbors as
Patriots you are a rude
terrible person
that's okay I know you're not
thinking
you never do they call her
Pocahontas
very low IQ
hello like you this is our
future our
fate and our choice to make a
life we
call him one percent Biden
until Obama
took him off the trash if he
couldn't do
anything now he's talking about
right I
think she's very bad for our
country I
am asking you to choose
greatness
no matter the trials we face no
matter
the challenge is to come that
hair is
getting whiter and whiter and
he's
getting crazier in praise we
must go
forward together thank you for
the
brilliant people on my team who
put that
together that's this at all I
don't
really have anything to add the
proper
unity set all those things so
it's do as
I say not do as I do and if
that moment
during last night's address
theme
sanctimonious consider what
Trump told a
group of TV anchors that have
private
lunch literally hours before
from Peter
Baker in the New York Times he
writes
quote mr. Trump dismissed
former Vice
President Joe Biden is dumb
called
Senator Chuck Schumer of New
York and
nasty son of a bleep and mocked
Governor
Ralph Northam of Virginia who
he said
choked like a dog at a news
conference
where he tried to explain erase
this
yearbook photo that's according
to
multiple people in the room
joining us
is a reporter with that too
Peter Baker
New York Times chief White House
correspondent Peter Baker
there's some
things that you read about him
that are
amazing and it wasn't joke like
a dog
and son of a bleep that was
amazing what
was amazing is that they tried
to spin
the anchors that there was
going to be
some grace note in this speech
that he
was going to talk about unity
that to me
was the big whopper lie of the
night
well it's one thing to try to
turn a
corner to pivot away from some
of the
division that there has been
out there
and try to in effect set a new
tone of
bipartisanship or unity but to
have just
a few hours earlier a lunch
like this
where you make clear that
that's not
really what's in your head in
your heart
that moment you know it's pretty
striking I think you're right
in his
heart here's what else came out
of his
mouth he said he hoped he would
get to
run against Biden I hope it's
Biden
Biden was never very smart he
was a
terrible student his ghasts are
unbelievable when I say
something that
you might think is a guy it's
on purpose
it's not a gas when Biden says
something
dumb it's because he's
yeah they do not want Biden to
run
that's for sure
yeah I think that's not
protecting him
at all you know then this is
what's-her-face Nicole Wallace
who
usually who worked for she was
Republican she worked for the
Republicans she's really just
mean she's
Vidor and bitter and and I
think Van
Jones you know he said the same
thing
that she just did there except
he's did
it in seven seconds that's
right I saw
this as a as a psychotically
incoherent
speech with cookies and dog poop
I mean you nailed it man just
say that
not sure what it means
doesn't mean anything cookies
and dog
poop yeah well it was funny to
look at
the numbers that seem to have
come out
of the speech which is a huge
positive
response from the Republicans
to the
tune of 97 percent well yeah
and 30 percent for the
Democrats and 82
for the independents which is
really all
that can right how much for the
independence 82 and whose
numbers of
these this came from the
sources that is
a good source and it was Muse I
think I
first saw it on c-span but it
was it was
a decent source speaking of
which c-span
speaking of c-span c-span and
they
started to do all kinds of they
made all
kinds of directorial decisions
I had not
seen before they were cutting
to people
when it was but they were too
had shot
cues they were ready they were
tight
zooms talk about socialism boom
there's
Bernie I mean they had this
down you
don't know that this wasn't a
feed that
were taken from NBC ABC or CBS
I don't
it's a pool so I don't know who
was in
charge of it but it was not as
neutral
as c-span typically is I would
take I
would assume they're taking
somebody
else's feed that's something to
change
their style their style is to
put the
camera up there and leave it
there well
it was a departure from
previous state
of the unions yeah
at least what I've see and we
should
probably say the state of the
union that
because you sure everyone in
the world
is heard about it because the
all
foreign press just gets up in
the
morning copy-paste and
translates in
English whatever the New York
Times or
was it wop oh whatever they
said USA
Today and then they you know
they paste
that file it has some coffee
good to go
so state of the union is
something in
our constitution where the from
time to
time the President shall update
both
houses of Congress on the State
of the
Union so all of this is just
show it
show and it's also the you know
he could
have quite honestly he said the
State of
the Union is strong it's like
well I
disagree I think we got lots of
problems
I I would have thought of the
better
although Trump would never do
that if he
said we got our issues but
we're doing
okay it's something like that a
little
more funny thing is is that
there was a
good run down I think it was
done by The
Times or the one of the one of
the
papers of the length of of the
speeches
it's very clear when you look
at the
shortest speeches and the
longest
speeches that the shortest
speeches are
always done by Republicans and
the
longest speeches are always
done by
Democrats except Trump falls
into the
Democrat camp having two of the
longest
speech is 82 and 88 minutes
right under
the Brecker breaker which was
Bill
Clinton I think it was 90
minutes this
thing should have been 45
minutes tops
it shouldn't have been that
there's
there are some if you look at
this that
this little there's some shorty
some
thirty minute speeches which
would be
just fine we don't need this
long
what is this was his it was a
tone I
liked his tone by the way I
thought he
struck the right tone I think
that that
does matter to heat something
about it
was just right he started off
with a lot
of the heavy breathing he got
that under
control
the
it was me it's more like a
rally is just
it didn't have the enthusiasm
of a rally
but had all the same topics and
he had
moments where like when he got
everywhere all of the house
chanting USA
USA I would have been like all
right
let's go that's what we need
everybody
see ya
he walked off right there would
have
been perfect all right we have
unity
I've done it we all love USA go
USA and
I'm out that would have been
fantastic
but no then he came back with
ripping
babies from mothers wombs it
was a real
roller coaster well then
there's the
issue of these idiotic white
dresses
well that's that's Nancy's
little army
Nancy's army who's she's
signaling to
like be quiet what the hell was
Nancy
doing with those papers what
was in
those papers that she had the
papers
desk it was really and and
she's and I
think this is just age and on
be a just
but you're in your 80s and you
don't
realize everyone sitting down
and we're
moving on oh crap let me
shuffle my
paper sit down now yeah and
then just
signaling for people to get up
for
people to sit down it was
pathetic I
think it made it really was a
disservice
to these women in my oppose
every
Republican woman who was in the
white
and they were doing high fives
and it
was not Republican silly look
like a
sorority club or something
that's very I
thought it was demeaning to be
honest
about it but they c-span did
have a
little thing at the end where
they were
he had the mic out there and
they're at
desk and everybody would walk
by for
some comments and so they
wanted to know
what this what the point of
white was
why wasn't it red it could have
been
yellow about blue how about
green giant
paw of Washington a Democrat
first of
all the Democratic women were
all
dressed in white for what reason
it was very powerful and you
saw that
almost all of us were on the
Democratic
side of the chamber there were
a couple
of moments there where
President Trump
mentioned women and the power
of women I
don't think he expected us to
take it
the way we did but we all
started
high-fiving each other and we
were very
happy that the power of women
was
recognized so I would just
point out we
were all on the Democratic side
of the
chamber it seemed a little
playful
though he was playing with you
a little
bit I don't think he really had
a choice
I mean I think we sort of took
over the
floor at that moment and and I
think it
was really about the
contributions of
women to this country and we're
very
proud that we have the most
diverse the
most female Congress that we've
seen in
a long time okay now I'm gonna
ask the
question that you heard what
she said
he asked the question for what
reason
did you wear white well I know
what was
written about this it was to
celebrate
the suffragettes that was rich
seemed
that seemed to be written after
the fact
as an excuse and if you go back
and look
at suffragettes though they
were what
they were a bustle bustle do
tell what
is a bustle it's the thing it
makes up
your hips look like they're
huge and
makes a dress flare way out Oh
a bustle
like you have a corset and then
a bustle
yeah of course it did a bustle
well now
this is again he asked her
specifically
for what reason what did she
say did she
answer that question alone no
she did I
don't know I listened to it a
couple of
times she couldn't answer
because nobody
knows it was a fence a
suffragettes as
far as I'm concerned it was the
thing
that IOC started when she took
her oath
when she was sworn in and she
at the
time said it was representative
of the
suffragettes I think it was an
AOC thing
that Nancy wanted to keep under
control
and she wanted to pull it all
towards
her and and I think the combo
of the
white with the pearls they all
had on
was kind of a fashion no no no
there was
a horrible horrible look I mean
I've
been around fashion like no
that's not
although a o'seas white outfit
was
stunning what a great outfit I
like that
a lot
that was good she
she had it was Eilish she's the
only
wild I saw that was a great
outfit and I
love the you those do you see
some woman
like with black on oh boy
or someone with red no hello
State of
the Union five years ago used
to be they
all came in red you're the
power the
power women dumb that's white
thing was
it was pretty interesting to
see it from
them from the camera angle but
it was
you I don't think it was I
think was a
flop well it identified
everybody and
it's it was about them well
this is
what's interesting is they were
all
scowling at all but most were
scowling
were not clapping until it was
about
them and then they were all
jumping up
and down
yeah which is like okay who are
you
really there for it was a to me
it was a
fun show to watch it was way
too long I
mean that and I and I think
Trump should
have had the the showmanship to
know
when to stop it or he should
have
reordered some of these topics
and
gotten some other things they
just it
the flow was way too roller
coaster
there was no no build-up to the
end in
that regard it was poor very
poor I
didn't think much of it I
didn't thought
but I'd never liked any of
these now we
did have the guy again back to
the
c-span guy I thought this was
funny this
Paul Tonko he comes in and he
has his he
condemns the this speech for a
reason
that was kind of unexpected but
I got a
kick out of this of course
because it's
somatic for our show what
committees are
you on and what are your
legislative
goals for this being in the
majority no
sure I serve on Energy and
Commerce and
I serve on Science Space and
Technology
under Energy and Commerce I now
have the
chairmanship responsibilities
of the
Subcommittee on Environment and
climate
change so very distressed that
I didn't
hear a word about climate
change when
the president talks about
national
security the climate change is
an
ultimate solution
about international harmony
climate
change is a threat to that
harmony we
need to address it wait a
minute I want
to go back and listen to that
again that
was pretty it was pretty
stellar huh
climate change is an ultimate
solution
sounds very creepy let's go
back a
little more out climate change
when the
president talks about national
security
climate change is an ultimate
solution
so national security climate
change is
the ultimate solution that's
exactly
what he said what what do you
think that
means I wonder myself I wish
I'd ever
since he said that I've been
wondering
whether it would it might mean
uh
climate change is the ultimate
solution
to national security how does
that work
what in what way is it the
ultimate
solution solution yeah Nazis is
what it
sounds like
yeah Nazis do they have the
ultimate
solution creepy when he talks
about
international harmony climate
change is
a threat to that harmony we
need to
address it I will tell you we'll
continue we're going to
continue forward
with our advocacy for climate
change to
be addressed we're having our
first
hearing tomorrow we will show
the
American public that we hear
the people
we will embrace and respect
science we
will understand let them know we
understand the urgency and we
will work
very hard to develop solutions
based on
science and evidence so we're
gonna have
a very aggressive approach
there's been
a dry spell for far too long in
the
House of Representatives with
this issue
not being addressed it impacts
great
greatly on our on our economy
it impacts
on public great and it's
costing us
dearly
yeah well the aoc faction just
came out
with a new new version of the
new Green
Deal which I haven't had a
chance to
review but I will for Sunday so
it's
it's it's kind of like the
Constitution
you know it's a living document
now we
do have the guy saying that the
public
is act by all this that we
haven't been
discussing it enough I don't
know anyone
who's irked by personally but
maybe it's
just me
he's just make
this up as he goes along but it
but the
truth comes out in the second
part of
his clip where he matches
really what
this is always gonna be about
it's snuck
in there as usual you'll hear
it so you
bring a you bring a spotlight
to that
issue but if you want
legislation a what
kind of legislation or would
you aim for
and beat what are you gonna do
about the
Senate okay
I think we have support in a in
both
houses and I believe there's
growing
support based on the public's
desire to
have this issue address so I'm
confident
we can approach this issue
along two
tracks simultaneously one where
we
harvest the low-hanging fruit
energy
efficiency weatherization
conservation
research grid modernization a
recharging
stations that are made more
accessible
more readily fueling the the
cars that
we electrify and then also on a
separate
track but when what did he
saying
more readily back a little more
here a
great modernization grid
modernization
whatever that means a recharging
stations that are made more
accessible
more readily fueling the the
cars that
this is an odd statement to say
recharge
stations more readily available
to fuel
the cars and we electrify and
then
realign a separate track but
simultaneously address a price
on carbon
of reduction of carbon
pollution we need
to be much more soundly the
stewards of
our environment and we need to
respect
the generations that will
follow us your
district has been affected by
industrial
job loss the president seems to
have an
industrial policy do you agree
with not
always I think he his rhetoric
doesn't
match his actions
hmm so the guys have been a
Rust Belt
area and I guess this did
nobody can get
work because of him and his
stupid ideas
but they keep voting to man so
what are
you gonna do it's a Democrat
bunch of
Democrat Union guys is my guess
all
right anyway that's one of the
one of
the things that I noticed the
climate I
call them the climate change
jerk you
want to transition to climate
change for
a minute or you want to stick a
couple
more of the things I do have a
switchback example that was on
the State
of the Union speech done by NBC
well we
can't do anything until you
call it a
whipsaw I can't remember what
they call
it
so tomorrow night the State of
the Union
divided with President Trump
fighting on
multiple fronts like
immigration the
very topic that prompted the
first 35
day government shutdown now mr.
Trump is
refusing to rule out a second
shutdown
unless Democrats fund his
border wall
well we're gonna have to see
what
happens so let's go over this
one he
refuses to rule out a second
down we'll
see what happens and he says
we'll see
what happens how is that ruling
it out
not at all it's not really and
I never
heard him you know make up an
assertion
I refused to rule out a second
no he
never did that and then they
have this
lame clip of him saying I mean
let me
listen to it again tomorrow
night the
State of the Union divided with
President Trump fighting on
multiple
fronts like immigration the
very topic
that prompted the first 35 day
government shutdown now mr.
Trump is
refusing to rule out a second
shutdown
unless Democrats fund his
border wall
well we're gonna have to see
what
happens yeah and it's even more
interesting that you know this
is
threatening threatening with a
national
emergency that was a question
that was
initially asked by a member of
the press
and he said I I could do that
that's
possibility he never came out
and stated
it the press you know hounded
him for it
yeah at least that's the only
instance I
can recall well I think we've
already
isolated what's really gonna
happen
which is not a national no it's
10 USC
284 which gives the president
this
absolute authority to implement
all the
things he's been talking about
under the
auspices of stopping drugs and
transnational crime and that's
already
law and he doesn't have to get
any
appropriation for it he can
just go do
it yeah I think that was the
one of the
if anyone listens to this show
regularly
they'll note that this is one
of the
greatest observations that I
think we've
ever put out there well that's
when I
came up with it let's see if he
uses it
he will
is with that guy when this
questioning
we could go back and do that
segment
again but let's go to the
second by the
way there's this was a series
of about
four switchback are whipsaws I
these are
the only two that were the best
and so I
just took these two this is
number two
and the president is ramping up
his
threats to declare a national
emergency
even as some allies urge him
not to
how can president Trump strike a
unifying note at his State of
the Union
address with the threat of a
national
emergency on the table well the
two are
not the same the national
emergency if
he were in fact to execute on
that
Christine which he has not so
far is
because he believes that we
have a
crisis on the southern border
right man
I missed this one good okay
let's start
let me give it another run
Welker says he's ramping up his
threats
ah declare a national emergency
they
can't even find any sort of a
clip that
would see anything to do with
this so
they bring in Kellyanne
Kellyanne asked
her an obscure question it's
got nothing
to do with anything it's
Richard what
she says I don't know what
you're
talking about
we're it worse so the point is
that they
this is a little more advanced
instead
of you exemplifying the the
idiotic with
a comet that's got nothing to
do with it
by the person that they're
accusing of
having something to do with it
they
bring in a third party they
can't even
get that close I'm gonna play
it again
and the president is ramping up
his
threats to declare a national
emergency
even as some allies urged him
not to
how can president Trump strike a
unifying note at his State of
the Union
address with the threat of a
national
emergency on the table what the
two are
not the same the national
emergency if
he were in fact to execute on
that
Christine which he has not so
far is
because he believes that we
have a
crisis on the southern border
also she
put in there that allies our
allies are
urging him not to do this what
I didn't
even know the ally allies were
urging
this we didn't have an example
of that
either they got a Kellyanne
Conway who
was an obvious ally she was like
befuddled by the question so
he's not
ramping up his threats this is
NBC it's
shameful really
the misleading reporting that
just never
has which is exactly what Glenn
Greenwald was talking of said
at the
beginning of the show that from
that
clip of his says these guys are
just
hopeless and the Republican
wealth Fox
News I should just say Fox News
well
here's an example of Fox News
home run
knocked it out of the park
great speech that's pretty much
with
everyone that was it that was
all home
run knocked it out of the park
coach
rockin and rollin and great
good and
then they all go off and yell
about the
women and white and everything
is it is
so harmful to your health and I
hope
that a lot of no agenda
producers tried
to save some of the family
members and
not even let them watch it just
just in
these cases it's much healthier
to let
us do that and we've built up
some
resistance over the years yeah
and our
family in a sense of humor yeah
and our
families understand us like no
well okay
but thanks to you now I don't
mean you
John thanks to the producers of
this
program which is everyone
within the
sound of our voices it's as
possible as
if you make it possible for us
to do
this just to sit around and and
do this
type of deep dive look for
stuff try and
scan it all to keep your
amygdala at a
small level a small size and
and to keep
your family and professional
life calm
and we have many ways that
people
support the show a lot of it is
through
donations yes sure but there's
there's
clips there's knowledge people
send us
there's artworks but for now as
he's got
his drum out it's time to say
thank you
for your courage in the morning

Dvorak you and I big senior
moment on
this one but we named the
episode
pentacon we named it episode
Pentagon
before yes week before not no
not quite
that bad I think it was and you
know and
there was a moment where I
thought to
myself you know that's because
I I'm
usually the one that goes let's
just
look this up just to make sure
we
haven't already used this and
now I'm
looking for it when did we use
that but
we did and people called us on
it and I
feel pretty stupid it's felt
like well
we should have called it
pentacon to
just renamed it well you know
once the
the feed is published going
back and
changing stuff results in tears
is
really not a good thing I'm
very sad but
we do want to thank Mark G
profusely for

was a
Superbowl related artwork it
had our
episode number on it MC i-- x 1
x MC 1x
and it was nice you know you
didn't like
it no it's not that I didn't
like it
there are other things that but
it's
it's a tough call because
yeah we know people will listen
to the
show a day after the Superbowl
how many
people really give a rat's ass
about the
Superbowl but then you look at
the
quality of the art and yeah so
the

new which
it is it is a few people
thanked for
sure what 10 11 10 we're next
show by
the way is 1111 which is a
double lucky
number yes 1111 I mean there's
all kinds
of ways you can go I'm trying
to push
people to $11 $0.11 the
subscription
yeah that would that be a great
way to
celebrate this really great way
be the
leaven leavens weekly
subscription and
also 1111 is what a lot of
people seem
to see when they look at
digital clocks
oh it's 11:11 a lot of people
have this
oh and I see 11:11 all the time
yeah
you're supposed to make a wish
oh yeah
mm-hmm it comes true it works
does
really mm-hmm I'll give it a
shot
okay super funk $33 so I got
into a
email back and forth with and
ended up
blocking him okay you blocked a
night
what well he first he sends me
this I
think it was a reddit exchange
where
they can somebody of course you
know
this we don't look at these
pages but
then I don't like seeing I'm I
don't go
to their those pages because I
find them
to be
just a bunch of dirtbags that
are making
comments where they don't know
what
they're talking about and so he
sent a
screen capture somebody
condemning me
for being an old fart from the
reddit
yeah it was like it was back
and forth
where I said that I I listened
to
Michael Savage and switched the
Hannity
and found that Hannity was
executing
something Savage was bitching
about
executing advertising wise and
he says
these guys is your guy she has
an old
age only old folks listen to
guys say
well you know I also listened
to Jim
Rome I also listened to
everything
that's that's talk radio
related just so
happens I was I like Michael
Savage cuz
he's funny and so I sent him
that no so
he sends me a thing back a
second second
email I don't need saying hey
do you
have a thing for Amy Goodman of
democracy now you keep using
her clips
and I said bye and blocked him
I'm not
gonna put up with this yeah
that that's
odd because I think he's the
guy from
Indiana who I met yeah well
beside the
point I'm just saying whatever
you know
that is pretty you just pretty
much
described the one guy on reddit
who has
eight accounts and that's poor

Christina's boyfriend no longer

upon
hearing you read this message
out of
some of the guilt
hopefully upon hearing you read
this
message out of some of the
guilt I've
been feeling will subside

26 cents
per show I've listened to since
being
hit in the mouth by Adam
himself to
those of you listening that
have also
been sponging off na like I
have good
luck I felt like the son Adam

from a from
producer Catherine new donation
amounts
suggestion with the show's
titty trend
in donations I am suggesting to
do a new
donation of $30 Mobe and
calculators
speak
that's donation amount is
suggested for
those hoping to recognize the
gender
inequalities faced daily by men
so
evidently clearly so clearly
evident
after years of sjw influence and
hypocrisy at the same time
however the
relatively small donation
amount under
50 allows producers to maintain
anonymity in their silent
support I'm
specifically donating today in
honor of
two important XY is in my life

Canadian okay well just to
confuse
things even more your moobs are
like all
right boobs um Joe Rogan had a
Jack
Dorsey on I should tell a band
beard
yeah that's pretty much all you
can say
about him but it was quite
interesting I
I thought it was a a good
interview no
it was not really a great
interview but
I heard the things that Dorsey
was
saying and I did bring a couple
clips to
share what was kind of
interesting is
that Rogen put out on Instagram
uh
Jack's gonna come back because
a lot of
people really unhappy that we
didn't
address D platforming deeply
enough
which is like wow okay I mean it
certainly was address but and
he gave
the answers I just maybe people
don't
hear it and there were some
other issues
with this I mean I think that
if you're
gonna have a main advertiser on
your
show you're gonna interview him
that you
kind of should mention that up
front
not until almost at the end of
the
interview as Rogan gets ready
to promote
the square cash app does it
kind of come
up like yeah yeah we really
love your
cash app yeah so he's getting
paid so
that you know that that's what
we call
that it's just not clean okay
well it
wasn't but it's just like
Dola yeah it's like you know
this whole
I mean that's when you get is
then when
people feel that you didn't
dive into a
topic deep enough they're gonna
get
accused while it's your it's
your
advertiser which of course is
true and
I'm sure that the Rogen you
know you
always think about these things
I gotta
piss this guy off and by the
way why
would you he has some
interesting
thoughts so I'd like to play a
few clips
that I that I selected from
from this
interview that answers a lot of
questions lease did for me I'm
not quite
sure why people didn't feel
they got
enough out of it
the first thing is how Twitter
and and
when you're listening to these
guys talk
me listen to Dorsey talk and I
had to
cut out a lot of pauses so that
disclaimer upfront you realize
that you
know Twitter the thing about
Twitter
this that to me is the most
interesting
is it's used by politicians and
and you
know and of course Trump
started this
really started the big use of
it but
it's as you as you realize that
all over
the world leaders and
politicians are
using Twitter now in a similar
fashion
to Trump maybe not with the same
fabulous humor but they are
using it to
set policy and communicate
directly with
their constituents it's kind of
a big
deal
it's plumbing and it's much
bigger than
Instagram or Facebook in that
regard
because it's so instantaneous
and well a
lot of it has to do also with
the way it
it functions and as we've
discussed in a
lot of our different segments
about this
it's user interface is really
what makes
Twitter unique and and it's
it's it's
not it's you know not the
colors or
anything but it's be giving
weight to an
original post giving the same
weight to
the comments and this is the
reason
although not implied in this
clip the
reason why Twitter blocks the
you know
you can't basically create a
different
Twitter client you have to use
theirs
because they know the minute
someone
changes the visual context of
Twitter
their game ends the thing is
every on
Instagram for any any blog you
have this
this post this statement and
you have
comments underneath
whereas with Twitter everything
is on
the same surface right it's all
one
surface you know there's room
for both
models but I this conversation
most
conversations it's it's not you
making a
statement and me just reacting
to them
right like the our conversation
of all
is based on what we say we can
interrupt
one another we can you know we
can
completely change the subject I
can take
control of the conversation and
the
people who might find that
interesting
follow it and the folks that
don't just
stop listening course you can't
do that
in a post comment model but
it's so
thinking it's just so close to
thinking
like there's no composition and
I think
that deep how so how is it
different
than a post on Instagram or a
post on
Facebook the the speed demands
you know
the the the character
constraint the
speed kind of just demands a
more
conscious present focused
thinking
versus like stepping back and
composing
a letter
yeah and composing a letter and
thinking
about all the outcomes that
make sense
now because of this and because
they
maniacally control the way it's
presented the way the
information is
presented this is where they
get to do a
lot of things like shadow
banning only
they don't call it shadow
banning they
just call it like moving you
down and
kind of you know moving you
away so
people don't see you right away
and and so this is the main I'm
sorry do
you want to say so no no I
thought you
doing this is kind of the main
clip
about the deep platforming and
it was
always a riddle to me and that
to Tina
as well would be like well how
can this
person say this and and they
don't get
in trouble yet this person says
it and
and they get warned or kicked
off and
what the conversation always
goes down
to as well that person's right
wing that
person's liberal that person's
Democrat
that person's Republican you
know
they're suppressing Republicans
and not
suppressing liberals
Dorsey's answer to this was very
surprising they don't look at
the actual
content at all it's about
conduct so the
simple answer is we look at
conduct we
don't we don't look at the
speech or so
if we look at conduct we look
at how the
tool is being used and you're
you're
right in that like I think when
people
see Twitter they see and they
expect it
to be a public square they can
go into
that public square they can say
whatever
they want they can get on the
pedestal
and people might gather around
them and
listen what they have to say
some of
them might find it offensive
and they
leave the difference is there's
there's
also this concept
this megaphone and the
megaphone can be
highly targeted with Twitter as
well
right so it's not it's not the
it's not
the speech it's how its
amplified when
do you decide this is
harassment when
decide this is hate speech when
like how
do you miss as we look at the
concepts
this is a fictional account
right that
you know person we're talking
about but
what what would dictate
something that
was egregious enough for you to
eliminate them from your
platform well
that's a that's a that's a
heavy action
so that's the last resort but
we look at
the conduct the the probability
of
someone who is harassing one
person it's
highly probable that they're
also assing
10 more people right so we can
look at
that behavior we can look at
how many
times this person is being
blocked or
muted more reported and based
on all
those all that data we can
actually take
some action but we also have to
we have
to correlate it with the other
side of
that because people go on and
they
coordinate blocks as well and
they
coordinate harassment and they
and they
coordinate I'm sorry not
harassment but
reporting reporting a
particular account
to get it shut down and to to
take the
voice off the service so these
are the
considerations we have to make
but it's
it's it all starts with conduct
and
oftentimes we'll see
coordinated conduct
whether it be that one person
opening
multiple accounts or
coordinating with
multiple accounts that they
don't own to
you know go after someone and
there's a
bunch of vectors of people use
retweet
for that the quote tweet for
that a lot
as well like you know they'll
quote
tweet a tweet that someone
finds and
they'll say look at this idiot
Twitter
do your thing and then just
this mob
starts and goes and tries to
effectively
shut that person down so
there's a bunch
of tools we can use the
permanent
suspension is the last resort
one of the
things that we can do is we can
down
rank the replies so any of
these any of
these behaviors and conduct
that looks
linked linked we can actually
push
farther down in the
Chane so it's all still there
but you
might have to push a button to
actually
see it you might have to show
more
replies to actually see this
harassing
account or what might look like
harassing language so I buy this
I think you've course there's
always
exceptions to it but I do think
that's
kind of how it happens because
it makes
sense that it's not so much
about what
someone is saying but you know
there's
so many of these we see it
ourselves you
get someone who's tweeting out
shit to
you shit to me you know there's
a
conversation showing just go to
racist
start yelling in that regard if
please
in that regard it makes sense
because
you know it is a public square
the way
he views it and you know people
yelling
and not being constructive
there's a lot
of this conversation talk that
he does
and he backs it up by
explaining how the
initial work not the
platforming not
kicking off but definitely
identification of abusive
conduct and
subsequent a shadow banning is
what
we'll call it that is really
done by as
he calls it artificial
intelligence and
this is manually done this is
all this
is all automated its automated
there
yeah but how would you like the
ranking
in the end looking at
amplification and
then looking at the network I
love how
Dorsey just says automated and
then
rogen of course is automated
right like
in terms of down ranking is
there a
discussion as to whether or not
this
person's reply should be down
ranked
like how do you how do you
figure that
out it's it's a machine
learning and
deep learning model and they
I'm really
blown away
yes skip logic is what it is if
this
person has five mutes then
consider him
to be down rank it's just skip
logic
it's not like I love doors it's
machine
learning is it not it's it's a
machine
learning and deep learning
model and
they just say I and they
you know and we we look at we
look at
how these things are doing and
where
they make mistakes and then we
improve
it it's just constantly
improving and
constantly learning and those
are the
things that our technology
allows it
changes the velocity changes
how you
know to broadcast a message
that someone
didn't really ask for and
didn't want to
hear we don't touch if I follow
Joe
Rogan you'll see every single
tweet we
don't touch it right right
but that's an audience that you
earn but
in your replies page we have a
little
bit more room because this is a
this is
a conversation that starts up
and some
people just want to disrupt it
and and
all we're saying is we're gonna
look at
move in the disruption down not
that
it's hidden but it's still
there but you
know you just see it a little
bit
farther down the algorithms
rank and
order of the conversation but
they don't
take suspension actions they
don't take
they don't remove content they
might
suggest to human to look at
this who
might look at our rules and
look at the
content and and try to look at
the
context of the conversation and
then
take action but we would like
to move
towards a lot more automated
enforcement
but more importantly how do we
how do we
highlight how do we amplify
more of the
healthier discussion
conversation it's
already apparent you know and I
look at
the troll room as this is
playing that
people are like this I believe
really
does another timecode no I
can't keep
doing time codes I believe him
I think
he's I think he he's telling a
a version
of the truth that he wants to
believe
I'm sure there's all kinds of
funny
business going on but in
general that's
the way it's being run and he's
smart
because he realizes that
Twitter has no
real future as a centralized
service
when you look at Mastodon and
basically
the federated universe that
fetter verse
as we call it of social media
which is
growing quickly and he wants to
be a
part of it but and in this this
clip
we're almost done here he sees
Twitter's
rolling in the Fed averse which
I
thought was eye-opening
we're going to a world
especially with
technology like blockchain that
all
content that exists that has
ever
created will exist forever you
won't be
able to take it down you won't
be able
to censor it it won't be
centralized at
all
our role is around what we
recommend
based on your interest and
based on who
you follow and and and helping
you to
get into that on-ramp but if
you look at
the architecture it's a given
that
anytime something is created
it's going
to exist forever this is what
blockchain
helps enable down the line and
we need
to make sure that we're paying
attention
to that and also realizing that
you know
our role is like how do we how
do we get
people the stuff that they
really want
to see in the fine valuable
that they
learn from that they'll make
them think
that that will help them evolve
the
conversation as well now I
don't know
how commercially viable that's
going to
be but to say you know our job
is to get
you what you want is I think
it's a
pretty big statement versus
everything
happens on our platform he
realizes
that's not going to be possible
and also
that negates the whole idea of
having 2d
platform someone if the tweets
and the
information is out because he's
talking
about DHT I just distributed
hash table
where where this is going and
then the
final one is his his belief in
cryptocurrency specifically
Bitcoin so
back to the end I believe that
it or not
will have a native currency
really no
have a native currency and I
don't know
if it's Bitcoin it I think it
will
because just given all the
tests it's
been through and the principles
behind
it how it was created and you
know it
was something that was born on
the
internet that was developed on
the
internet that was tested on the
you know
it is of the Internet I I just
look at
this and like how do we embrace
this
technology not react to it and
I and you
know more from a threat
standpoint but
like what does it enable us to
do and
where does our value shift it's
it's a
fascinating time
in technology because like that
that to
me was one of the one of the
last big
centralized nationalized
instruments is is currency is
money and
when you think about the
Internet as as
a country as a market as a
nation it's
going to have its own currency
and he
puts his money where his mouth
is they
did the Lightning Network
Bitcoin
transfer thing yesterday
participated in
that so and that seems to give
some
credence to Bitcoin as the
future and I
would have I would have had a
got a
little mini man crush on door
see if he
hadn't messed it up with just
112
seconds of answer messed it up
I can no
longer like him one of my
favorite
things when someone posts
something
stupid and then underneath it
is a bunch
of gifs we say gifts or gifs I
say gif
does anybody know yes I guess
no I'm
sorry that's just wrong Wow I'm
stunned
he should know better the guy
who
invented it calls it gifs calls
it jiff
what does he know so that kind
of ruined
the whole thing for me that
coupled with
the lack of the question of how
do you
make money would have been
interesting
to know where does that billion
dollars
a quarter come from would like
to know
I'd like to know how much of it
is ads
are you selling the data
brokers that
would've been a good question
that
wouldn't be a good question
well that's
probably was gonna bring him
back
know he's bringing him back to
talk more
about deep platform oh that's a
lie just
said that just as a he there's
some
reason he's already probably
booked him
to get him back as he likes
some I was
totally cool thank you rich no
Dorsey's
coming back to rescind and sit
and call
it gifs that's that's the only
reason to
come back
the meme is what he should go
back for
no I don't know if he's really
running
his company with with this
insight and
this deep thinking deep
learning but I
think I think he's saying some
interesting things here I think
it was
interest he does have a handle
on what's
happening and of course this
the shallow
we're only interested in your
food I
would stood that was the Alex
Jones
question even asked yeah but
the answer
was so long and it was a repeat
because
he said the same thing it was
he said
when and when he was deep lat
formed by
Apple and everyone else they
kept him on
because they just didn't see
any abusive
conduct and to wit there was
also very
low reporting of his account he
says
that was the odd thing is that
people
were not reporting and I think
a lot of
people forget to do that today
because you know it takes four
clicks
you gotta answer a survey you
got to do
it if you're not a bot and then
yeah and
then you can say oh and then
the well if
nobody would their way to get
deep
platformed because apparently
conduct
there was some some conduct
that he used
that that's remedy at the
company
you know they got social justice
warriors working there behind
of course
I mean that's that's another
question
this guy I'm gonna just drop
him that's
another thing yeah that's a
good way the
computer told us to do it right
was
always great to have that cuz
computer
as a backup excuse I just
thought it was
uh
I thought it was a good I
thought it was
enlightening I learned
something I did
wanted something yeah let's get
to let's
get at least catch up with
these some
current events yeah like how
wrong we
were about Super Bowl the Super
Bowl
yeah well okay I mentioned in
the
newsletter what was the social
political
reasons for Boston to win your
New
England because Elizabeth
Warren is it
can't be President
we have no reason that's what
maybe the
game was rigged as possible
that the
game was rigged for the for the
Rams to
win but they sucked so bad that
then no
matter what you did the only
score three
points the whole game cuz
they'd shut
down the New England team and
only
scored 13 points I mean there's
nothing
for them I guess maybe 60 at
the end no
I don't know but let's talk
about
something interesting we said
we talked
about I promise we talked about
we
talked it yeah we were I
thought the
Rams you know I kind of
confused them
with goats for goat power but
of course
the only goat was was was the
team yes
now right now the Rams that
here's the
for these guys they need a
rebrand
refresh they need new uniforms
new
helmets I'm looking at these
outfits
like the Patriots they got like
cool
like warrior helmets with all
their they
got little sides to it and
little flat
bits and a thing that looks
like it'll
pop up and shoot her a laser
gun from
the top and the Rams like you
know hello
1970s uniform that was just bad
television God alright that's
enough I
guess no I I noticed some other
have no
clips or anything but I noticed
the
commercials oh yes let's talk
about that
a too many commercials with
robots and
or talking tubes like is and
all of them
come not at all anywhere near
reality
they've got these you know
Alexa like
you know Google devices that
you know
they just interrupt the
conversation you
have a real conversational flow
with
them complaining like the four
of them
and then every added a robot
this a
robot that it was it was not if
it's not
good I don't think any of those
ads were
funny really or or entertaining
and it
kind of showed this dystopian
future
that we're not even really
living in
because these talking tubes are
still
pretty lame
I just didn't yeah I'd like the
t-mobile
ads actually thought those were
the
funniest I thought they'd bud
like
commercials with the King
because I've
been following these
commercials since
the beginning and
did a really good job I thought
Bud
Light did a great job of
pointing out
the fact that the other light
beers used
corn syrup of course they
didn't point
out that they use rice but all
right
they pointed out they have
their their
ingredients label and it says
rice on
there
and they point that out but
they don't
use corn syrup and they made it
I
thought that was a good add
with the
corn syrup barrel being moved
from place
I was like yeah you're right
that was
funny and then they had a guy
there's a
lot of ads that were
co-sponsored by
more than one advertiser and I
think the
Bud Light commercial that was
also
co-sponsored by the that show
that that
whatever that crazy shows with
the
dragon that breathes fire okay
Game of
Thrones The Game of Thrones I
never get
those commercials you know you
and I not
for me I've tried I couldn't
get through
it and so that whenever these
references
it takes me until the very end
like oh I
see it was Game of Thrones
it's just lost on me it's lost
like the
Bud Light commercials just to
say that
they do a good job and I really
find it
very funny that this King the
Bud Light
King who was something of a of
a prick I
just find him very funny all
right
but Boston also he had a this
did you
see this and Tifa clip I'm not
sure it's
real no what does this I don't
know some
kid is on there's a meme
floating around
about some I'm Simon auntie
fuckin he
has this little phrase he likes
to use
and it became a meme on the I
think
Twitter or one of these systems
but this
auntie play this just play
Boston and
Tifa MPC meme chant okay Dustin
29 here
Boston antifa I like everyone
to repeat
after me
in PC may go away we are human
here to
stay
NPC may go away we are human
here too
NPC me go away we are human
here to stay
shame shame shame shame shame
shame
shame I think we played this
months ago
yeah it's possible but whatever
the case
is I didn't I saw it but I have
it now
Forza 4 is a candidate for end
of show
which is the shame I saw which
I think
would be nice let's check it
out I do
have a competing one as an
option let me
see I have this this is a I
thought this
might be good that was God told
me
destroyed your oak I don't know
pretty close to your shame clip
well
they're pretty competitive I
think I
even had a an extra one yeah
then I have
this is a one our producers put
this
together they found they got
they got
the Google home to say this
there was a
glitch try again in a few
seconds I
don't think it's good enough no
I think
shame shame shame I landed
shame shame
shame all ended nicely yeah
because we
got some great end of show
mixes today
so we'll do that
so back to back to
international news I
do to have a brexit clip ah
good I've
been wondering what's going on
on yeah
what's going on nothing
Faraj on his show on his LBC on
his
radio talk show LBC I think he
dug up an
old corbin clip in horses the
the
socialist labor leader
yeah he's the labor leader he
would be
the prime minister of labor
ever took
over and he found an old clip
of Corbin
going on and on about how bad
the whole
idea of the of being in the EU
is which
is contradicted by the way to
me I'd
like maybe you can explain
because you
live there quite a while hmm
labor the Labour Party was
supposed to
represent labour mm-hmm isn't
that am I
wrong about that is the Labour
Party
because it represents labour
yeah it's
like one-hour laundry if you
want to be
specific it could be that
they're about
labour yeah because it seems to
me that
being in the EU is not really
supporting
British labor no no it's not
it's
supporting British freedom of
movement
so what they always say not the
same as
British labor but so I always
wonder why
the Labour Party was always so
pro EU
and Pro remainders when it's
really the
bankers out of this super
remainders are
the ones who want to stay it's
there
whereas of course
cuz they see themselves as a
different
class of people and they're in
their own
City in the middle of London
and so I
was always baffled by this one
but it
doesn't surprise me that
somebody from
Labour would be against the EU
but let's
just play this Faraj clip what
he's
writing him about this remind
ourselves
of what he said in that speech
we are
creating for ourselves here one
massive
great Frankenstein which will
damage all
of us in the long run well I
mean I
agree with that but god he's
more brexit
that i am i think albans are
hardliner
I only called it the new Soviet
he calls
it a Frankie
Stein and yet how does that
work how
does that fit with the shadow
brexit
secretary Kearse tarma speaking
on this
very issue of second
referendums if we
cannot get a general election
labour
must support all options
remaining on
the table including campaigning
for a
public vote that was out I
think there's
gonna be trouble ahead at some
point and
I remember folks calling is in
a very
powerful position and he turned
a blind
eye to eight of his shadow
ministers
last week going against the
party line
on the Cooper amendment
goodness knows
could it be that it's Jeremy
Corbyn that
saves brexit Wow what a thought
now
Farraj it kind of lost a little
credibility with me just yet
yelling on
the sidelines okay I mean he's
not the
best radio guy he's so Ricky's
voice is
so recognizable though that
makes it
great you just like doesn't
know it
immediately that's him right
off the bat
I just call you an expert on
collectibles I don't want to
say hoarder
but you're an expert on
collectibles all
right you know you know you and
you I
know how the market works yes I
saw a
commercial I don't know if it
was local
or if it was a national spot
for the
Trumpy bear understand this
Lynda Trumpy
bear you got well I don't have
a clip it
I thought you would have seen
at Trumpy
bear calm and it's this bear
that has
you know a red tie blue suit
you know
like a teddy bear with Trump
hair orange
Trump hair which you then you
know you
can comb it and then if you zip
him open
an American flag comes out it's
like
it's one of the most
unbelievable
products I've ever seen like
this is got
this has got to be a
collectible 35
bucks for this thing
sturdy your limited edition
Trump Eber
3295 what do you think is this a
collectible is this something
that all
of yours it just
something they'll clutter a
clutter
everything else no it is a
collectibles
totally a collectible and it
would go
into the political collections
that end
up in museums usually so the
other stuff
that's you know associated
bumper
stickers plans God pennants wall
hangings there's a lot of them
in there
they're collectible the problem
with
collecting this stuff is not a
near-term
collection this is uh you're in
it for
the long haul yeah you got it
you're
gonna hold on to it yeah you
got a hold
on it this puppy right you have
a
collection of some political
stuff
including a box a box a box of
Kennedy
bumper stickers from 1960 I
guess is 62
nor 64 what did they say or 62
is 60 no
is 60 1960 says Kennedy the
buttes in a
very distinctive font and I
have like I
must have a hundred of them and
I don't
know somewhere along the lines I
described a hundred and put
them in a
box and I've picked somehow
kept it 60
and they're still good I think
it'd be
funny to have a Kennedy bumper
sticker
on your car even as
collectibles are
worth maybe five dollars apiece
maybe a
dollar that's what I love about
you I'm
holding on to him anyway one
day they'll
be worth money they're five
dollars
today is seven tomorrow you
could get
that kind of money for yeah
okay let me
see yeah there was something odd
Associated Press reported the
day before
the State of the Union which
was also
picked up by The Washington
Post that
Ruth Bader Ginsburg made her
first
public appearance since
undergoing lung
cancer surgery in December yeah
so what
they claim is that if she
wasn't at the
State of the Union we knew saw
her
absence 85 bill Ginsburg is
attending a
concert at a museum a few
blocks from
the White House that is being
given by
her daughter-in-law and other
musicians
the concert is dedicated to
Ginsberg
Ginsburg's life in law she had
surgery
in New York on December 21st
she missed
arguments at the court her
first illness
related absence in more than 25
years
the Justice sat in the back of
the
darkened auditorium at the
National
Museum of women in the arts the
National
Constitution Center which
sponsored the
concert did not permit
photography
interestingly there's tons of
photos
from this event tons of them on
Instagram everywhere and not a
single
one of Ginsburg and this just
fuels
conspiracy theories I think
well it
should they've got to keep that
least
they have to keep keep it going
they got
to keep her quote-unquote alive
she's
alive they have to keep her
alive for
two years even though she may
not be
alive okay they gotta keep her
alive
we're 12 now I think they can
do it for
a year and then they can stall
oh yeah
then they can stall with tube
argument
at all though with all with the
Senate
being really run by Republican
that may
not be able to completely stall
I mean
they'll try to stall like they
did with
this last guy Cavanaugh right
but they
have to do that so now it's
gonna be
people on the lookout for she's
got to
show up somewhere producer Seth
and I
put it all in the show knows he
wrote he
has this I mean this is like
trying to
look alike by the way and get
away with
that they should yeah producers
are old
ladies out there that looked
like her
producer Seth did a huge
rundown with
links and everything you know
to back up
his assertion that she's dead
and and
that this is being covered up
by the by
the fake news media so that and
that was
here at Washington Post says
the same
thing makes her first
appearance and
this was a day before the State
of the
Union and then we heard nothing
after
that did it there was I didn't
hear him
talking about her not being
there
Norris Clarence Thomas well but
yeah I
think you're right have to have
to keep
quote-unquote alive for at
least a year
okay the watch is on yes like
that
weekend it what was it weekend
at
Bernie's a new burner yeah we
can have
Bernie's that's about right
yeah I'm
just gonna coin a little term
here I'm
not quite sure even if it's the
right
term yet we need like something
like
living the app life or app
society I
think living the app life may
be better
because this is what a lot of
young
people are doing and is living
their
lives through apps such as IKEA
who have
just announced that they will
have an
app very similar to Ober where
you'll be
able to rent furniture from
Ikea this is
how bad it must be oh you
wanted how the
economy was doing yes I think
the next
step is you rent someone else's
IKEA
furniture it's coming it's
coming this
this is pretty pretty sad this
sad state
of affairs and then this
happened in
Austin many electric scooter
riders and
drivers extra aware of their
surroundings tonight after
hearing about
a crash that sent a scooter
rider
to the hospital with a head
injury now
this happened last night at
i-35 and
sixth Street police say the
person on
the scooter was at fault going
the wrong
way on the frontage road
kxan's yoojin cho discovered
some new
information about the car
involved and
also spoke with people who ride
scooters
about how they're trying to
stay safe I
talked to the owner of that car
that was
involved in this crash you're
at this
very busy intersection he told
me he was
actually renting out his car
through an
app called hire car he said the
driver
who was driving his car through
this app
is shocked and upset so this is
a
fantastic situation I'd like to
know how
it works with the insurance so
you have
someone who used an app to rent
an
electric scooter that was then
hit by
someone using an app to rent
someone
else's car
this it sounds like we're
dealing with
the
future we are live in the
future but
who's responsible who tell who
pays for
what where does the insurance
come in of
course those covers at fault is
supposed
to pay for everything and the
insurance
company typically is supposed to
orchestrate that that scenario
yourself
rock your world luck with that
I can't
wait to see what if anything
comes of
this some has got to come of it
but it
does bring up an issue that
needs to be
addressed which is people
renting bikes
and renting scooters and not
having a
helmet and it in a state that
requires
helmets we don't require
helmets we do
in California I know there's
not much
see anyone on a scooter with a
helmet on
this happened in Austin no I
see these
people and a lot of homeless on
the
bicycle and they've got no
helmet okay
did you want to go talk to him
about it
hey buddy where's your helmet
no agenda
imagine all the people who
could do with
us oh yeah

big big
lucky numbers
I did want to do a little
climate change
stuff okay you know open the
climate
gate yeah you know it doesn't
feel right
to climb a gate because you
know this is
not I mean that was how many
years ago
was the climate gate years ago
you
typically have clips from the
United
States about climate change and
you're
all gonna die and twelve years
well the be sure that you
mentioned the
twelve years producer Simon got
put
together a couple of clips for
us from
BBC's breakfast show radio 540
destroyed
eat Wheaties you know this is
the
intelligence bound there on the
radio
five and let's share some of
the current
information information
refining that is
going on in the United Kingdom
of Gitmo
East a first off let's go on
about the
myth-busting and the the myth
that this
ain't happening or it's not
man-made or
human responsibility there's
quite a lot
of this online and it goes all
the way
up to president Trump who
notoriously
said that there is no such
thing as
climate change it's all the
Chinese
conspiracy to attack American
capitalism
and you see it from
commentators online
but the BBC quite responsibly
now it's
like evolution there are no
equivalents
is given to the naysayers
because the
science is overwhelming isn't
it coming
overwhelming yeah I mean you're
quite
right and and I think in some
ways
talking about it as as a myth
and kind
of reasoning attention of it
again and
implies that there is some sort
of you
know some equalness to to these
two
sites and and they're just
absolutely
isn't the evidence is
overwhelming
contrarians it's overwhelming
should be
no equivalence at all maybe
we've
reached some form of tipping
point
what's absolutely clear about
climate
change is that it's a it's a
big problem
and it's urgent and we all
absolutely
do something about him but yeah
what was
it with there's no there's no
absolute
certainty over there over there
over the
timescales sometimes we've been
hearing
recently about a twelve year
time scale
in some ways that's useful to
think
about wait I thought we were
gonna die
in 12 years now it's just
useful to
think about meaning but nobody
really
knows whether whether 10 years
might be
a time scales we've got before
something
really nasty with before we
start a
tipping a feedback mechanism
that makes
quite nasty things happening
our climate
weather we've got 15 years or
whether
we've already gone over that
tipping
point now know what kind of
bullshit it
is but he's got no idea at all
and he's
not completely with the program
cuz the
12 years is death death man I
tell you
so much to get into more coming
up later
on but do you don't just very
quickly do
both despair about the fact
that this is
you know in America there's a
certain
strain of evangelical thinking
which
says this is not happening
because God
would not let this happen where
is that
what this is this is a lie I've
to show
me one rapport with one
evangelical code
for nutjobs cuz you holy mad
that's a
good one forbid you have any
faith let's
listen to the whole thing it's
it's only
10 sir yeah I'll play it from
the
beginning that was pretty lame
so much
to get into more coming up
later on but
do you just very quickly do
both despair
about the fact that this is you
know in
America there's a certain
strain of
evangelical thinking which says
this is
not happening because God would
not let
this happen and it's not just a
Minority
Report these people are in the
White
House in you know in in
rational terms
do we need a new president you
need a
new Broadcasting System you
dork cuz I
thought he said president of
the planet
oh I'd not let me see let's say
let's
play at home in rational terms
do we
need a new president for the
planet
president plan
we need a new president for the
planet
yes so these guys are all in on
one-world government
yeah when they've and also
ridiculing
religion with a lie I mean I I
have you
ever heard someone say God God
wouldn't
have this I think that would the
opposite would be true
hey if God wants this then
that's what
he's doing instead if God
wouldn't let
this happen it's okay because
they have
learned from our media and they
go
straight into abusing children
to drive
home their point
well it's your dad's obsession
isn't it
he's got a panels on the roof
the
Gridley electric car is he mad
no help
the it will help the world from
global
warming do you think so yeah
yeah do you
agree with all this your house
is the
only one in the street with
solar panels
on isn't it so what difference
is this
making good morning so we need
to get
other people to do this yeah
how'd you
get other people to do it we
talked to
them and do you really what go
round
schools saying boy go green
that's what
we need to do yes I understand
what's
that well that's coming in a
moment stay
tuned boy
go green what we need to do yes
yeah all
right and so you too as I
understand it
have never been on a plane is
that right
no not even a propeller plane
or in a
glider no why do you think that
is
because the fumes from the
plane pollute
the world and where'd your
friends go on
holiday well my friends usually
go to
like shiness your and Mexico on
planes
sounds great like that right so
you're
not flying do you feel you're
missing
out at all not really but it's
quite
good as it's not polluting the
world
poor child no ace never gonna
go on here
you were talking about the
Hitler you
goons no it's called the
your Union no it's the European
youth
for climate action they what
the elites
in Brussels have seen is the
great
success of the truants out
there now for
four weeks kids protesting
something as
long as they're bundled up
warmly they
got shawls and hats and gloves
to to
yell against the global warming
and now
they have the wait for this
name they
have created a new European
Union
initiative which creates
opportunities
for young people in the European
solidarity core how about that
how about
that's what I just want
bringing it up
you just said it only it's not
called
Hitler Youth that's called
European
solidarity core and they have
they will
have a budget of more than I'm
reading
directly from the European
Union press
release more than three hundred
and
forty million euros to cover a
bras to
cover a broad range of
activities with
this overall budget the European
solidarity Corp could dedicate
over
forty million to creating
volunteering
opportunities in the in there
and in the
areas of environment and
climate action
by twenty I get throw a rock
through
your window if you don't have
solar
panels an important focus will
be on
getting the right skills and
competencies for the labour
market of
the future especially in the
growth
sector of green jobs yeah yeah
tell that
decline er Perkins new projects
under
the European youth for climate
action
can cover a wide range of
activities
from training youth workers to
reuse and
recycle materials motivating
youngsters
that line standing there going
through
bottles motivating youngsters
to use
smartphone applications to save
energy
what motivating youngsters to
use
smartphone applications to save
energy
stimulating the spirit of green
entrepreneurship to developing
skills in
sustainable agriculture
sustainable
industry or the tertiary sector
such as
groom green tourism marketing
and
education additional funding
transferred
from other EU programs to could
create
additional opportunities you're
right
this is the Hitler Uganda the
European
solidarity Corps the ESC write
it down
that'll be a logo yeah hello
yes we're
here to check and see if you're
green
this is gonna have a sash in an
armband
armband armband Zirin baby
well now back to the United
States got a
note from one of our producers
my
daughter 9 is in the school
play this
semester she says to me dad
wait until I show you the
script they
changed the story it doesn't
make any
sense
they're doing the was it the I
this the
ice princess what was the
Disney movie
with uh you know the ice
princess and
now I can't springtime for
Hitler
no no troller will help me out
yeah the
the big one would let it go
Rose it
frozen thank you frozen dad
they change
the story doesn't make any
sense how can
L sustain gore global warming
arendelle
isn't even a real place this is
my dad
this is just pandering so he
sent me a
copy this nine year old said
this well
that's what he wrote yeah a
copy of page
17 and 18 oh and if you've seen
the
movie then you know the story
but I'll
just read a little bit Elsa
says but
this power it's too harmful I
don't want
to hurt you Anna Anna says
you've been
hurting me for years Elsa you
have shut
your
self away from me in the world
we are
sister sisters are joined
heart-to-heart
Anna and Elsa embrace Elsa says
look
Anna you're not frozen
we really are joined at the
heart makes
a heart sign Anna don't be
afraid of the
power use it for good Elsa for
good how
can I use it for good
Olaf ever heard of global
warming snow
and ice are melting at our
polar ice
caps with your power maybe you
could
stop the melting frankly some
things are
worth melting for but I want to
stick
around and see how this story
ends Elsa
wow I can use this power for
good to
help people all over the world
that's
powerful it's not in the
original script
a rewrite artist at the school
but it
was like the lear foundation is
at the
at the grade level now at the
grade
level
rewriting classic scripts it's
just no I
wanted Anna do as Romeo and
Juliet
meanwhile the news came out
that 2018
was sadly not the hottest year
on record
only the fourth hottest year
this is a
fudge they could not budge it
this is
NOAA the National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration may
be part
of them backing off yes we've
identified
now it's this the fourth
hottest year on
record it used to be the
hottest year
ever hottest year ever hottest
year ever
but I think it's kind of hard
to get
away with saying that when you
have
electric car owners noticing
that their
vehicles lose about 40 percent
of their
range in this bill in this
bitter cold
into blizzard yes and Tesla
owners who
don't live in sunny warm
California are
very disappointed in their
model three
vehicles where the have door
handles
freeze you know the door
handles on the
Tesla they pop out yeah they
can't pop
out because they're frozen so
you can't
know what to do if you can't
open the
car ticket do what you do in
the Midwest
take a cup of hot water can
throw it on
the handle it'll open oh it
doesn't guys
are hopeless doesn't make it
fun to
bitch and moan about it and
then I have
to kind of techy stories Google
is now
claiming are we leaving the
Climategate
do you want to close it well
you get if
you gotta close it you gotta
close it
okay close the Climategate when
it comes
to machine learning and AI
artificial
intelligence I've been very
skeptical
and one of my main mantras has
been why
don't you fix my email if you
can have
machine learning look at my
email and
make it work and and give me
things I
absolutely want when I want
them then I
will have some belief in your
artificial
intelligence and Google now
announces
that they will here's the
here's the
headline what are you doing
well I'm
just saying this bullcrap
whatever
you're gonna read by Google
spam does
not bring us joy ridding Gmail
of 100
million more spam messages with
tensorflow tensorflow is there
tilts our
flow that's their open source
machine
learning framework no brother
and right away that means more
than
newsletters gonna be put to
promotions
yes it's true right away people
were
complaining that PayPal
security notices
we're going to spam sounds like
that
tensorflow is doing its job you
know
when someone logs into your
PayPal
account it sends you a security
message
now that's going to spam will
be routed
to spam no doubt
but they're saying that they
can do it
sure they can't machine
learning makes
catching spam possible helping
us
identify patterns in large
datasets that
humans who create the rules
might not
catch it makes it easy for us
to adapt
quickly to ever-changing spam
attempts
okay oh yeah really nothing new
in spam
it was the latest dubuque me
everyone
gets some spam somehow I mean I
don't
get much because I haven't I
get no spam
but I looked in the spam boxes
the
creativity of the spammers is
not what
it once was you know they used
to put in
code certain kinds of
characters that
the spam filter would miss and
so you
get this crazy there's not that
much of
it and the other thing about
spam is
nobody cares if some of it's
pushed the
spam box you're sending out
millions of
messages you only need a few to
get
through right except it hurts
because we
get trapped in there yeah I
think what
to go miss anyone who has a
newsletter
gets trapped and then which is
one of
the reason you want email so
they can
get their newsletter they
subscribe
somebody subscribes to the
newsletter
and it goes into spam they
subscribe to
and then they'd lot against it
while I'm
whitelisted it I've tried to do
everything but it keeps going to
promotions or spam promotions
usually
yeah and this hit and miss why
because
there's a cup I have about five
people
that are looking at this that
constantly
send me a note would just tell
me where
it went and it's like no reason
who
should have done that right but
whatever
and then we got a note from
producer who
goes by the name of hacker 1000
and it's
just reiterating something
we've talked
about we've witnessed ourselves
we've
known about and just wanted him
to weigh
in and say hey you know it's
I've been
working as a freelance video
editor in
New York City since 2014 it has
now
become painfully clear that all
digital
media companies and he's
talking about
ones like oh I don't know
Viacom our
buying fake views for their
online
videos when they don't meet
certain
numbers
somebody at Comedy Central told
me they
were doing that a year ago but
ever
since I've been asking people
at various
companies if they buy views so
far
everyone I've asked has said
yes which
leads me to believe that all of
the
media companies are doing this
for their
YouTube Facebook Instagram etc I
wouldn't be surprised that these
companies are buying followers
as well
all of it being done to lie to
their
advertisers exaggerating
numbers to
secure ad buys and he says he
believed
it was a surprise to us the
constant
layoffs were seeing is because
the
waters are receding and the
tsunami is
about to hit so yeah no
surprise to us
and of course it's true I
wonder what
the real traffic is of the
Internet
I don't know but nobody wants
to look at
those Apple numbers the podcast
app will
podcast numbers yeah no no
they're not
very encouraging no at all for
anybody
at all my goodness okay I do
want to
keep up with current events has
been my
theme today they're very good
and I
think they do have the latest
Venezuela
report this is from CBS's and
noted
noting the CBS history they're
all in on
Venezuela overturning the
government no
problem yeah if I could only
find it I
got the US wants Maduro out
Elizabeth
Palmer in Caracas the Capitol
reports
military leaders support Maduro
the
soldiers maybe not what we need
is
Maduro to leave we must
overthrow this
government without the Armed
Forces
president Nicolas Maduro is
finished so
state TV broadcasts pictures
almost
daily showing apparently loyal
troops
with their commander-in-chief
but in reality vast numbers of
them on a
salary of about $6 a month have
had
enough why are they ready to
desert the
president because they're tired
we are
suffering just like the people
are
before me no more my family for
example
my salary isn't even enough to
buy food
formula formula for you is this
something you can talk about
among
yourselves in the barracks or
is it too
dangerous we trust the people
we talk
about what's going on in the
country but
the higher ranks don't know
what we're
talking about what is that is
why I'm
doing the interview like this
to protect
myself to convince soldiers and
their
brass to defect to the
opposition one
Guido widely recognized as
interim
president has offered them an
amnesty
but the rank and file need more
than
that
what will it take to get you to
change
sides in the National Guard all
we need
is a high-ranking general to
rebell lead
the way for the Army will be in
the
coming days when large
quantities of
humanitarian aid much of it
sent by the
United States reached
Venezuela's border
president Maduro has ordered the
military not to let it in and
everybody
is watching to see whether or
not they
obey now this is CBS yeah you
know you
would you think they'd be
involved in
this they are through their CIA
connections well this was the I
think
this was messaging I think it
was done
to indicate that one of you
generals is
gonna make out on this if you
are the
one cuz I yeah and we and we
know that
the the military has been given
guaranteed visas US visas to
you to
remain loyal so yeah I think
you're
right that's like hey hey hey
anyone out
there yeah it would just need
one guy
one guy will give you they will
support
you
well that whatever you make you
make you
very comfortable so just
somebody do it
so I figured in the next week
one of the
generals will break away could
be yeah
that that's definitely a good
signal
good catch
the other thing going on whose
current
adventure wise is it should be
last we
got some good mixes we're
running on the
low but then I'm gonna skip
this okay a
measles I'll put it to the next
show
okay I shall put in her own you
know
that woman that crazy Hawaiian
that her
own oh whatever her name is
yes she's the Congress she
senator or
congressman congressman yeah it
might be
a senator because this was a
one of
these hearings for somebody
becoming a
federal judge which only takes
part in
the system must be to look it
up and I
forgot I should know but anyway
she
somehow brings in dwarf-tossing
as the topic of conversation
Chris makes
a fool out of herself in this
situation
I think you responded to a
something
that happened in France where
they made
dwarf-tossing illegal and you I
think
that you said something like
you know
it's up to them whether they be
but they
this is an individual decision
but why
wouldn't she having a seizure
what is
going on with her always this
is the
woman she's always sighing but
she's a
teenager
it's little people throwing not
dwarf-tossing
little people throwing that's
very pun
on PC it would seem as though
you're
writing about dignitary harm
would apply
to something like dwarf-tossing
wouldn't it yes senator thank
you for
the opportunity to clarify that
again it
was in the I wrote about a
particular
case in France that was was
that use
different conceptions of
dignity there
was a town in France that
banned dwarf
throwing there was an
individual mr.
Wacken Haim who made his living
doing
that and he said that this van
affected
his dignitary interest but but
in my
article I don't take a position
one way
or another on these issues I'm
just
pointing I think your article
has been
interpreted as that you were
okay with
odorous tossing this is one of
the
reasons that in organizations
that
supports their their issues is
very much
against your nomination or
well what organization is is
that is a
that is an organization for the
banning
of dwarf-tossing
I guess I need to I want to be
a member
of this club this is very
important
stuff may see her oh no Maisie
