Adam Curry returned to the microphone for the first time in over a month on the No Agenda Show, welcoming special guest Sir Deucifer, Rob Dew of AlexJonesLive.com, for a wide-ranging dissection of a news cycle Curry argues is entirely shaped by the coming midterm elections. Broadcasting from Fredericksburg, Texas, on August 20, 2026, the episode titled 'Just Dew It' marked Curry's first appearance since the passing of his longtime co-host John C. Dvorak.
Curry opened the nearly two-and-a-half-hour conversation by warning listeners that every clip played would tie back to the political throughline of the midterms. The discussion quickly moved through the week's most contentious stories, including the morale crisis aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln, where reports of moldy showers, broken toilets, and a sailor going overboard after 250 days at sea during the war with Iran have dominated headlines. Curry read a boots-on-the-ground dispatch from a Navy aviator disputing the coverage, then delivered his father-in-law Earl's blunt Vietnam-era verdict: 'I was in Vietnam for 8 months, slept in a pup tent for 3 months during the rainy monsoon season, period. Sailors are sissies.' Dew countered with a viral Marine drill instructor clip, arguing the modern services have traded grit for grievance procedures while family members, not sailors, drive the media narrative.
The episode also covered President Trump's pivot from bombing Iran to an economic blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, with Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent predicting that pipelines will render the strait irrelevant. The hosts delved into the federal debt hitting $40 trillion, Bitcoin surging past $72,000, and the Genius Act's stablecoin rollout, as well as the Texas data center boom, ChatGPT for Teens, and Meta's $1.4 trillion multistate addiction trial. Dew connected the newly unsealed indictment of former SPLC CFO Heidi Beirich to a 2013 FBI Boston field office assessment labeling Alex Jones a racially motivated extremist, citing FOIA documents analyzed by former agent Kyle Seraphin. Curry added Texas state Senate testimony on 500 proposed gigawatts of data center power chasing stranded wind capacity in the Panhandle.
The conversation also touched on the Keystone XL revival, Alberta's October 19 independence referendum, Ukraine's 800-drone assault on Russia and UK-supplied weapons hitting Wildberries warehouses, and Judge Napolitano's interview with Max Blumenthal on the Ankara decoy flight. Throughout, Curry and Dew emphasized that the media's focus on sensational stories like the Lincoln morale scandal diverts attention from the economic and geopolitical shifts that will truly shape the midterm landscape.
As the show concluded, Curry reflected on Dvorak's legacy, noting that the show's mission to deconstruct media narratives remains as vital as ever. The episode is available now wherever podcasts are heard, offering listeners an irreverent alternative to conventional news analysis.
