The No Agenda Show, now in its 19th year, reached a milestone with episode 1900, "Trust The Plan," broadcast on September 3, 2026, from Rotterdam. Host Adam Curry, celebrating his 62nd birthday, was joined by guest co-host Rob Dew to tackle a range of pressing topics, from Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent's aggressive sanctions strategy to the growing use of surveillance technology by law enforcement. The episode underscored a central theme: the concentration of power over money, data, and public narrative.
One of the most striking segments focused on Bessent's "Operation Economic Outcast," a campaign targeting Iran's financial infrastructure. Curry played clips of Bessent on Fox News and CNBC, where he issued direct threats: "We know where in the British Virgin Islands your accounts are at these trust companies. We know the $100 million houses you have around the world, and we are going to freeze those." The hosts analyzed the implications of secondary sanctions and cutting entities from SWIFT and the Federal Reserve wire, noting that such moves could reshape global financial alliances. They also discussed Tom Luongo's thesis that Europe might be pushed toward conflict to consolidate debt under the European Central Bank and introduce a digital euro, a scenario that would have profound consequences for national sovereignty.
The conversation then shifted to domestic surveillance, with a deep dive into Flock cameras and their Bluetooth tracking capabilities. The hosts highlighted how these devices can log every Bluetooth-enabled device in their vicinity, creating a database that raises significant privacy concerns. They referenced the "Have I Been Flocked" website, which allows individuals to check if their data has been captured. The episode also touched on the Signal Trace hardware and the potential for law enforcement to exploit this data without warrants. Dew, who was present at the January 6 Capitol riot, provided firsthand accounts and discussed new evidence about the pipe bomber. Ex-FBI agent Kyle Seraphin, along with investigators Steve Baker and Congressman Barry Loudermilk, revealed that the pipe bomber's phone pinged on FirstNet, a network reserved for law enforcement. This revelation, combined with the discrepancy between the bomber's shoe size and the footprints at the scene (a size 9 versus the arrested suspect's size 12), suggests a possible cover-up. The hosts connected these dots to question the official narrative and call for transparency.
The episode also delved into the speculative AI data center boom, with penetration tester Sir Patrick Coble arguing that data center developers should be required to post registered capital bonds to protect communities when the bubble inevitably bursts. Comparing the current frenzy to the 1890s railroad expansion and the dot-com fiber glut, Coble warned of the environmental and economic fallout. The hosts also discussed Nvidia's acquisition of Hugging Face, the Jevons paradox, and Maria Bartiromo's exit from Fox News, rounding out a show that consistently challenges mainstream narratives. As always, the No Agenda Show offers a unique blend of humor, skepticism, and in-depth analysis, making this milestone episode a must-listen for those seeking an alternative perspective on the forces shaping our world.
