Roger Avary provides an in-depth analysis of Richard Linklater's film Nouvelle Vague, which dramatizes the evolution of the French New Wave. He commends the film for remaining focused on the history of cinema rather than modern politics. Avary explains how Linklater used digital tools subtly to recreate 1950s Paris while shooting on 16mm film to maintain an authentic aesthetic.

Reports from New York City allege a new crime wave involving illegal migrants deliberately jumping in front of vehicles to extort money from drivers. This behavior is described as a tactic to exploit terrified motorists for financial gain. The segment links these incidents to broader concerns regarding border security and urban safety.

The segment discusses Miles Copeland, a known CIA operative who became a major figure in the music industry as the manager of The Police. Copeland reportedly applied techniques learned in the CIA to pioneer the punk and new wave genres. Dyer highlights Copeland's book "Game of Nations," which suggests that the long-term goal of intelligence operations is global depopulation.
