In the latest episode of the No Agenda Show, titled “Screwball,” hosts Adam Curry and John C. Dvorak dissect a flurry of breaking news, including President Trump’s abrupt cancellation of the war with Iran, which sent oil prices collapsing and the Dow surging 800 points. The timing of the announcement, occurring just one day before Elon Musk’s SpaceX IPO, raised eyebrows among the hosts, who applied their signature media deconstruction to the event. They scrutinized Trump’s claim that the U.S. quietly sank 22 Iranian oil tankers “with no lights” and discussed AXIS Capital CEO Vince Tizio’s appearance with Maria Bartiromo on Fox Business, as well as the implications for insurance markets and maritime risk.
The episode also delves into the Los Angeles mayoral race, where Nithya Raman edged out Spencer Pratt to face Karen Bass. Curry and Dvorak featured commentary from Bret Weinstein, Greg Gutfeld, and Chris Hayes, highlighting the contentious nature of the election. Weinstein’s monologue on election integrity was played verbatim: “These elections are designed to allow fraud that cannot be detected and will not be prosecuted. And that’s really the thing that we must focus on.” Curry contrasted this with MSNBC’s Chris Hayes calling the argument “manifestly preposterous,” while Dvorak dissected an NPR segment that used a remote Alaskan village reachable only by dog sled to justify extended mail-in ballot deadlines ahead of a Supreme Court ruling on a Mississippi challenge.
Senator Elizabeth Warren’s 12-page letter urging the SEC to delay the SpaceX IPO was another focal point. The hosts explored the political motivations behind the request, given the IPO’s proximity to the Iran ceasefire announcement. Additionally, they covered the first New World Screwworm case confirmed in Gillespie County, Texas, and Scott Pelley’s tearful New York Times interview after his CBS firing.
Deeper segments examined Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan’s forthcoming book Regime Change, which alleges that Vice President JD Vance floated having Tucker Carlson interview Ghislaine Maxwell in prison to exonerate Trump on the Epstein files. The book claims that Susie Wiles, Karoline Leavitt, Pam Bondi, Todd Blanche, Kash Patel, and Dan Bongino were present in the Situation Room during the discussion. The hosts also covered Bill Gates’ congressional testimony about Epstein’s alleged blackmail attempt, Anthropic’s rebranded “Mythos” model now called Fable 5, Palantir CEO Alex Karp’s CNBC interview, the resignation of UK Defence Secretary John Healey under Keir Starmer, the collapse of the Franco-German fighter jet project between Airbus and Dassault, the Belfast riots following a Sudanese refugee’s attempted murder charge, and New York’s proposed shift from “mother” and “father” to “gestating parent” and “non-gestating parent.”
Throughout the episode, Curry and Dvorak maintained their skeptical, independent lens, questioning the narratives presented by mainstream media and highlighting the interconnectedness of political, financial, and cultural events. The show, which operates on a listener-supported value-for-value model, is available wherever podcasts are heard.
