In Episode 1874 of the long-running media deconstruction podcast No Agenda, hosts Adam Curry and John C. Dvorak delve into a leaked phone call between President Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, first reported by Axios. The call, in which Trump reportedly called Netanyahu 'effing crazy' over the Lebanon incursion, has sparked widespread discussion. Curry and Dvorak focus on a less-reported portion of the story, where a source told Axios reporter Barak Ravid that 'there are people in the Trump administration who are gravely concerned that Netanyahu has been, in the words of one of them, too bloodthirsty.' Curry argues the leak appears engineered to redirect public anger away from Israel and toward Netanyahu personally, while Dvorak questions the leakers' identity and why Miranda Devine, in her New York Post podcast interview, did not follow up on that aspect.
The episode also examines the surprise rise of Tom Steyer in the California governor's race and a House War Powers Resolution vote that drew four Republican defectors, including Kentucky's Thomas Massie. The hosts analyze media framing across multiple outlets, including Megyn Kelly and Sean Ryan's 'black-pilled' podcast circuit lamenting Israeli influence, and Cenk Uygur and Anna Kasparian's shifting positions. Other segments cover Senate testimony from detransitioner Chloe Cole and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent's exchange with Senator Ron Wyden over Jeffrey Epstein.
In technology news, the hosts discuss NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang's Korea keynote unveiling the RTX Spark and DGX Station for Windows, which Huang called a 'reinvention of laptop' capable of running trillion-parameter models on the desktop. They contrast Huang's vision with Ed Zitron's Bloomberg appearance questioning AI ROI and David Sachs invoking Jevons' Paradox on the All-In Pod. Additional topics include Bill Pulte's appointment as acting Director of National Intelligence, the scrapped $1.8 billion 'anti-weaponization fund,' Eli Lilly's retatrutide trial results, Richard Gere's 'Dictatorship of the Monsters' speech, and Ukraine's drone strike on St. Petersburg during Putin's economic forum.
