Alpha Warrior and Josh Reid are back after a weekend of cursed tech, fried computers, and a power outage that hit mid sentence while Josh broke down a Minnesota cyber incident. Over the target, maybe. The main event is the timing they say they called: Todd Blanche confirmed as Attorney General on the very same day General Flynn posts "the storm has arrived," followed hours later by Trump. The guys...

Burning Bright welcomes back his favorite geopolitical sparring partner, Ghost, for a session he warmly promises will "waterboard you informationally and narratively." Consider yourself warned, and comfortable. The theme tonight is the final boss. Who exactly is the Sovereign Alliance fighting, and why do so many in the truth community keep rubber-banding back to their old Fox News framing the mom...

Jonathan Drake closes out chapter two of Spooner's Science of Justice, wrapping sections six through eight in one sitting. He builds the case that if justice is natural, it has to be immutable and universal, the same standard for everyone, everywhere, whether we are talking about ancient Rome or your neighborhood today. Expect a memorable analogy about contractors using different measuring systems...

Jon Herold and Chris Paul open by dissecting a pair of Trump social posts, one clearly joking about a 2028 run, one that reads a lot more serious, and have some fun picking apart what happens when a "just kidding" post gets followed by one that isn't. There's also a JD Vance endorsement clip that gets the full comedic breakdown treatment before things turn more substantive. The middle stretch cove...

Cam Cooksey opens episode 62 unsure what day it is (Jackie's out of town, so of course), then settles into a calm, big-picture read of the week's Truth Social posts. A rainstorm, a flying door, and a briefly missing cat provide the comic relief midway through. The through line is war and peace. Cam unpacks Trump's "Trump 2028, just kidding" post, an AI photo of Trump with Patton and MacArthur, and...

The crew opens with a heavy one, the Lindsay Clancy case and the murky territory of postpartum psychosis, before pivoting into a genuinely raw conversation about feeling burned by Dan Bongino after years of promised Epstein accountability that never materialized. From there it's straight into a spicy, on the record moment where hosts declare they want APAC and any foreign flag influence out of Ame...

Host Matt Trump powers through a technically cursed evening (broken mic cord, dead camera, "wading through mud" all week) to deliver part three of his summer abroad walking tour as the self-styled Rick Steves of Badlands. After a detour on reactivating a decade-old Facebook account and how he tries to explain his politics to liberal friends, he crosses the Thames to the Tower of London and its Nor...

Jordan and Nate open by roasting mainstream media's hilarious hit pieces on RFK Jr.'s new cooking show (the Washington Post is somehow mad the HHS secretary makes salmon cakes) before playing some genuinely great clips of him going toe to toe with a stone faced Dana Bash on CNN and dropping a bombshell about gain of function research on Fox News. From there they dig deep into the corporate takeove...

Trump heads to the State Department to make the case that mining, yes, mining, might be one of the sleeper hits of his second term. Expect big numbers on new mines opening at the fastest pace since the 1950s, billions in fresh investment, the first American rare earth mine in over 70 years, and a genuinely entertaining tangent about chandeliers and Corinthian columns. Rubio, Burgum, and Lutnick ea...

Jon Herold recovers from a canceled Florida trip (thanks to an airport radar outage) to dig into Trump's wide ranging Punchbowl News interview, breaking down his lukewarm comments on Senate Leader Thune, his surprisingly uncertain tone on the midterms, and some fascinating remarks on crypto, AI, and a possible 2028 run. He also plays a clip of John Solomon making the case that the intelligence com...

CannCon and Chris Paul open with a genuinely strange story about the mysterious Ghost in the Machine account quietly disappearing from social media on its purported last day, and dig into why a Navy ship logo tied to that account has never been fully explained. From there they touch on Mitch McConnell's oddly worded recovery statement, noting nobody has actually seen him in a while, before diving...

Chris Paul and Burning Bright close out the Knives Out trilogy with the newest entry, and Burning Bright makes his case for why this one hits harder than the first two. Expect a genuinely thoughtful breakdown of Rian Johnson as a filmmaker, from Looper to the divisive Last Jedi fallout, and how that history colors the way they watch his work now. The conversation digs into the movie's heavy religi...

CannCon and Alpha Warrior open with a little gun collecting envy and boot camp trauma bonding before diving into the real meat of the night. Alpha lays out his theory on how Trump's national emergency and executive order playbook could reshape the next election, from foreign interference disclosures to what role the National Guard might actually play at the ballot box. From there the guys go head...

Frankie Val warns you up front: no feel good material tonight. This is a demons and schizophrenia special. Returning guests Jerry Marzinski and Judy Gregerson, a former schizophrenic turned deliverance practitioner, share fresh cases, including a woman visited by talking orbs, and press the show's recurring theory that not every inner voice is your own. Frankie runs live audience polls (most say y...

CannCon and Ashe in America wrap up Chapter 10 of The Creature from Jekyll Island by G. Edward Griffin, finally closing out the Mandrake Mechanism and the entire first section of the book. This week covers reserve ratios and just how arbitrary they really are, why national debt and inflation are not always the same beast, and the strange history of the 1980s bond market that briefly kept inflation...

Jon Herold pre records a lighter Thursday show ahead of a Florida trip, walking through John Solomon's latest declassified documents on a 2020 Maricopa County voter data hack that the Biden Justice Department never prosecuted, though he admits the release feels underwhelming compared to what he was hoping for. He covers the Senate Homeland Security Committee voting to hold Fauci in contempt of Con...

Ashe in America and Ghost kick off Season 5 of The Chosen, and this season comes with a twist: nearly the entire storyline unfolds inside the final six days before the Last Supper, told in a way one host compares to a Christopher Nolan film. Episode one opens on Palm Sunday, and the hosts dig into how differently each disciple carries themselves as the crowds cheer, with Judas especially swept up...

CannCon and Alpha Warrior dig into a wild Michigan Senate primary where a DSA backed candidate just overcame a mountain of establishment money and a Whitmer endorsement to beat out the party favorite, setting up a fascinating general election matchup. They play through commentary connecting the win to deeper Muslim Brotherhood ties and unpack a surprising story about a longtime blue blooded Democr...

Jon Herold and Burning Bright dig deep into Andrew McCabe's own handwritten memos, piecing together the timeline from his firing to the launch of the investigation into Trump, complete with a Kamala Harris clip grilling McCabe that adds some extra context. It's detail heavy stuff, the kind of episode where the receipts do most of the talking. The second half takes a sharper turn, with Burning Brig...

After nearly two years off the live mic, GMoney reunites with Patriots in Progress (Pip) for a wide-ranging, unhurried conversation that treats the current Bitcoin chaos as almost the calmest thing in the room. The two old comrades compare notes on surviving fifth-generation warfare, toxic maximalism, and the exhausting theater of geopolitics, arguing that stepping back is the only way to stay san...

Shipwreck welcomes Bigfoot specialist Snake, who claims to have found and preserved an actual specimen in the Adirondacks, and the conversation goes places you would not expect. They compare his find to the legendary Giant of Kandahar, debate Nephilim theories, and get into the government attention, harassment, and outright threats he says followed once he went public at the New York State Fair. S...

Lt. Gen. (Ret.) Steven L. Kwast and Chris Ponder take a 50,000 foot view this week, framing the whole "tools for truth" project through a military lens: the OODA loop. Observe, orient, decide, act, and whoever moves through that loop faster wins, whether it's a battlefield or the information war we're all living in. Kwast draws on everything from Sun Tzu to John Boyd to explain why speed and clari...

Dana White introduces the President in Las Vegas, and from there it's a full throttle rally covering everything from no tax on tips (which started, fittingly, with a tip from a Vegas waitress at dinner) to no tax on overtime, no tax on Social Security, and the wildly popular Trump savings accounts. Expect record breaking economic numbers, a proud rundown of border security wins, a fiery, extended...

Jon Herold spends most of Hump Day walking through newly declassified documents revealing a previously unknown FBI investigation, codenamed "Oxford comma," opened into Trump for allegedly acting as a Russian agent just seven days after he fired James Comey. He builds out a detailed timeline connecting Comey's leaked memos, the appointment of Special Counsel Robert Mueller, and internal FBI texts s...

CannCon and Ashe dig into a growing chorus of Democratic voices, from Chuck Schumer on down, floating the idea of abolishing or reforming the Senate entirely, tying it back to the broader DSA takeover conversation from recent weeks. They play a stack of clips including Pete Buttigieg making the case against the Electoral College this week and connect the dots on why this messaging is suddenly ever...
