No Agenda News 1701

"Trek" Over to the Donation Page.
Dear Producer, 

So far the Commodore promotion has done well for the No Agenda Show and it continues as we head towards the 17th Anniversaey of the show, another important milestone. Grab a No Agenda Commodore title while you still can. Click here to become a No Agenda Commodore.

The show had its 1700th episode last Thursday and now we have the curious episode 1701 which many have suggested become some sort of Star Trek promotion since this was the number of the Starship Enterprise. There is not much we can do since Paramount Pictures make a legal fuss when anyone tries to exploit its intellectual property. So nice try. That said you can still be the Executive Producer of 1701 and there is nothing anyone can do a about it since it is just a number. Click here for that.

Or just donate whatever you want to donate to support the show. You can use your credit card and contribute whatever the show show is worth to you. Click here for the normal payment processor, if that does not work for you, click here and use Stripe, the alternative.
 

ALSO Sending a check to PO Box 339, El Cerrito CA 94530 is ANOTHER way to contribnute. There are various systems that will send checks for you too. Learn about these systems by clicking here. Non USA checks written in foreign currency are accepted.

Tomorrow's Show

The news trajectories have not changed, but the rhetoric of the politics has livened up. This includes more celebrity endorsements including the latest from Bruce Springsteen who claims “Trump is a threat to Democracy.” Wearing a decidedly lesbian outfit inside of am empty diner “the boss” rambled on and on to promote Harris for President. You may recall he already promised to leave the country if Trump is elected. Most people are still waiting for Barbara Streisand to leave after Bush got elected years ago. She is still here.

So this begs the question, when did celebrity endorsements become a “thing.” The first President that became closely associated with the celebrity class may have been John F. Kennedy and his stylish wife. But pure celebrity endorsements by the boatloads were most apparent with Hillary. Earlier in the game it was seen as risky to take sides lest you alienate the audience.

Before Clinton most political activism was non-partisan and about policies, not politicians. The Viet Nam war protests were the best example until the pro-Palestinian protests of late.

Before Hillary the celebrity endorsements were scant and only done by a political class of Hollywood elites who nobody cared about. Barbara Streisand being a great example.

The risk today is hypothetical. Let's say research indicates that Taylor Swift and her legions of so-called “Swifties” actually influence the election and it it can be proven. Harris gets elected and the country falls into a terrible depression and falls apart. What then happens to Taylor Swift? It won't be pretty.
