Here is what Gary Shapiro CEO of the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA) said: Dvorak's writing sings with insight and clarity. Whether or not you agree with John's views, he will get you thinking and is never boring. These essays are worth the read!

Was a good episode, but it seemed like there was a little tension between Adam and John. It could just be that there is just so much bad news and also people aren’t supporting enough. I signed up for the $5/month a ways back, very much worth it.
Support the show people. MSM is awful in every way possible, it’s not even entertaining.
This may interest my fellow No Agenda fans:

Ah geez – is Adam all end-of-the-month fun again because of the frakkin’ donations? It’s like listening to NPR or watching PBS anymore, except fun raising month is EVERY EPISODE. Well I consider myself NOT a douchebag, because I only tune into the show occasionally anymore, and the last time I listened Adam was simply being an absolute asshole. I tuned out and left it be; it was like listening to my brother’s ex. Nice to know nothing has changed. Thanx for the note, Burnedtubes – I’m passing up this podcast until, say, spring. If ever.
#3 I’m definitely not saying to stop listening, far from it. I love NA. Just seems like the guys maybe be a little stressed or something. Show them some support. I hate regular ads. I don’t mind hearing them ask for donations and mentioning larger donors. I like and support the model.
I think the problem is you have no way of distracting the average person from seeing that you are far from having no agenda. I mean seriously, shitting on Ford and GE. It couldn’t be more obvious that you are trying to take down the media empire that is twit. I have long suspected that Laporte was CIA but now you two have given proof.
WTF.
I didn’t detect any special PMS from Curry this episode. Just another normal episode.
As long as these guys don’t despair too much regarding donations, and the show stays upbeat instead of desperate-sounding, it’ll do fine. It’ll slowly acquire more donors until it’s “self-sustaining”.
However, I also hope they realize that they’re asking for donations in the middle of what is really the Second Great Depression. Getting what they do is close to a miracle. They should push the $5/month thing more.
P.S. I was interested in a No Agenda e-mail address, a) to advertise the show; b) I want a super-secure Gmail alternative. But the e-mail addresses are “gotnoagenda.com” which is confusing to non-listeners, especially since the site was never completed. These guys should host their own e-mail addresses at noagenda.com, with emphasis on security, to all $5/month donors. It will cater to the paranoid crowd — including me.
So on the last No Agenda, John and Adam attacked anyone with an education and anyone who studies science. Really seems to me, they have sunk to the level of trying to belittle people who have achieved more than they have in educating themselves.
I always knew Adam was jealous of people who were smarter and more educated than him, but I thought John had some respect for education.
Very sad indeed.

That’s malarkey. I agree they haven’t clarified their position on “global climate change” well enough. Apart from a few side comments to the effect that pollution’s a bad thing, it’s hard to tell what they think about it other than that Science with a big S is rigged just like the rest of the system is. I personally think that if they believe seven billion people aren’t affecting the climate, they’re morons. Maybe their individual views are more nuanced. But it’s true that Science is being used by the jerks in power to advance their nefarious, dastardly, insert-your-adjective global agenda of more and more control.
Sheites!
wow. What cycle of the moon is it? Hard to understand how several of you are all PMSing at the same time.
I’m not getting the hate, boys.
I didn’t hear that they were attacking scientists or people in science, but you gotta wonder who can profit from “global warming” and “zero carbon credits”. Science is one thing, outright manipulation is another.
Science rigged? Yeah. So it appears. Everything from the big crap pet food makers funding Vet schools to the lack of peer-reviewed papers pushed to a PR agency and promoted on every news agency in America — something stinks in the world of science.
As for the malarkey about asking for donations…. it’s part of the show. Better than 57 ads in 8 minute bursts throughout the show (as you get on commercial radio/television, or the 5 minute disclaimers between segments of NPR). Doesn’t bother me a bit.
#9 agreed
im starting to believe the cia and fbi have spooks posting comments on this blog to belittle it 😀 every week there are at least 2 posts about how much the show sucks. i do not understand at all 😀
than again, adam can be a dick 😀

#9 Diane:
I hope you’re not including me in that group. I’m as virgin as the newly-driven snow!
But I hereby put you on notice that you used several words from my posts: “PMS”, “rigged”, and “malarkey”. Not to mention: “the”.
Thanks for the mammmaries!

Dave..
how many crack pot thoughts/ideas do you want?
how about the redistribution of WEIGHT in the planet? As a spinning top disperses the weight evenly of its OWN recourse..Mankind has Changed the balance.
Pollution?? started in the 70’s from the USA shipping out major polluters, as the USA regulated EVERYTHING TO DEATH.. and so went our jobs. The pollution DIDNT go away, it just went Someplace else. and NOW is 10 times worse. As an animal doesnt LIKE to Sh^T in its own lair.. its STILL out there.
Over population: Its HERE, its happening, it AINT going away. How to CUT the numbers..
Over production of farm lands and how to grow 4-10 TIMES the amounts on land…what it does to the land.. Modifying plants to the point they arent NORMAL any more..
how about the FRANKENSTIENIAN LAWS for both audio and video corps created in the 40’s, and made WORSE over the years for the Audio/video corps ONLY because they BACK the Gov/corps..
Ok, I’ve been listening to Alex Jones and he seems to be just as much of a whack job as Adam and John.
Now, he seems to have plenty of advertisers that don’t try to control his content…
Maybe if a bunch of us tell them to try this model it might ease the tension and get them some money!!!
#16 – You mean, a loud and obnoxious ad break every 5 minutes or so? No thanks
I liked this show. So much so that I signed up for the knight layaway program.
@ECA
Why are half of the words in all of your comments capitalized?
Im a duck, thats why..
Wish Adam would stop making that choking sound every time he laughs. I worry that he’s about to die every time he does it.
This is nothing.
The media should be eating it up.
Fox has a tree up their collective rear over this.
H. Clinton is still married to Bill so I think she can stand this.
