Jordan Sather and Nate Prince break down a packed week in health news. Marty Makary is out as FDA chief under circumstances that remain murky, with Dr. Malone having previously claimed Makary was blocking COVID vaccine death data from going public. Interim replacement Kyle Diamantis is a food lawyer who represented CBD companies and quit a Planned Parenthood case over moral objections. Kennedy mov...

Jon Herold comes in Friday on a lighter show day. A post claims Trump purchased up to a million dollars of NVIDIA stock on January 6, one week before the commerce department approved NVIDIA chip sales to China. Jon pulls the disclosure live and confirms the purchase is real, then asks the harder question: if the stock did not actually go up right after the sale, is it even insider trading? He also...

CannCon and Chris Paul close out the week with a Friday show built for the big picture. Trump wraps his China summit with Xi, and the White House readout makes no mention of Taiwan, which Chris Paul reads exactly as it should be: the Taiwan crisis is a media fairy tale being dismantled in real time. Xi pledges no weapons to Iran and expresses interest in buying American oil to reduce reliance on t...

JB White's last show before a long summer break, and he is not going quietly. He opens with his read on the Beijing summit: Trump brought the entire American economy into Xi Jinping's room, combined it with the secretary of war and the combatant commands, and the result was China walking away from Iran and committing to large American purchases. He walks through Thomas Whitaker's sharp breakdown o...

Chris Paul and Burning Bright dig into the 2016 Justin Kurzel film Assassin's Creed, based on the long-running Ubisoft video game series and starring Michael Fassbender, Marion Cotillard, Jeremy Irons, Brendan Gleeson, and Charlotte Rampling. Both guys agree the movie underdelivers on its concept but is way better than the brutal reviews it received at the time, and the conceptual material gives t...

CannCon and Alpha Warrior welcome retired Air Force Lt. Col. R. Davis Younts, a former JAG officer who almost got separated at nineteen and a half years for refusing the COVID shot, saved only by the Doster injunction. Younts now represents the service members fighting to get their careers, records, and back pay restored. The conversation opens with the trailer for the new documentary "Duty to Dis...

Frank welcomes back the prolific Leo Zagami, author of the Confessions of an Illuminati series, for his 2026 debut on the show. They open on the not-quite-a-raid at Tulsi Gabbard's ODNI office, the year-long CIA standoff over MK Ultra and COVID-era documents, and whether next month's hearing will actually pry anything loose. From there it's straight into Leo's lane. His upcoming book, The Vatican'...

CannCon and Ashe in America tackle Chapter 3 of G. Edward Griffin's The Creature from Jekyll Island, where the theoretical bailout playbook from Chapter 2 gets applied to real history. Penn Central, Lockheed, New York City, Chrysler, Commonwealth Bank of Detroit, First Pennsylvania Bank, and Continental Illinois all get walked through the same script: reckless loans, emotional blackmail to Congres...

Jon Herold comes in Thursday a little bruised from the Wild's overtime collapse and ready to sort out what actually happened with yesterday's viral story. Half of the infowar space spent Wednesday sharing breaking news that the CIA raided Tulsi Gabbard's office and seized JFK and MK Ultra files. Jon traces the story back to its actual source in the CIA whistleblower testimony, explains how the wor...

Ghost and Ashe in America close out season three by walking through the Decapolis arc all the way to Simon stepping out of the boat. The hosts unpack why Andrew and Philip's parable of the great banquet sparked a literal street brawl, why Judas is the only apostle in the room who instantly grasps everyone's offense (because his ego is still fully intact), and what it means that Jesus heals a deaf-...

CannCon and Alpha Warrior bring the Thursday energy with a show that is almost entirely CIA. Senate Homeland Security Committee holds an open hearing with CIA whistleblower James Erdman, and not a single Democrat shows up. Erdman confirms that Fauci personally injected himself into the intelligence community's COVID origin review, that CIA analysts concluded lab leak was the most likely explanatio...

Jon Herold and Burning Bright open with live footage from Trump's bilateral summit with Xi Jinping in Beijing. Burning Bright unpacks his multipolar margin call theory: the entire US/China trade war was a coordinated squeeze on the global billionaire class, and the summit is Trump and Xi standing at the head of the table telling those 30 top CEOs exactly who controls the future of their companies....

Tonight on The Shipwreck Show, we go deep into some of the strangest theories, stories, and moments shaping the modern conversation around reality itself. We’re talking: Operation Fishbowl and the theories surrounding it, Claims of people living in “two timelines” side by side, The viral roast of Kevin Hart, The mysterious “Lazarus” story and questions about life, death, and resurrection The so-ca...

Cohost Matt Trump finally makes it on the mic after last week's traffic detour, and the wait was worth it. He brings a giant lens: humanity over millennia, with Johan Huizenga's The Autumn of the Middle Ages as the anchor. Lt Gen (Ret.) Steven L. Kwast riffs alongside him. The framing is unforgettable. Matt calls our current moment the return of the future. In the 1960s, with Apollo and Star Trek,...

Jon Herold comes in Wednesday with a full show and a story that has him reaching for the electoral college map. The FBI has opened a preliminary investigation into Wisconsin's 2020 election, and Jon walks through the math live: flip Georgia, flip Wisconsin, flip one more state, and the "not enough fraud to change the outcome" argument collapses entirely. The Arctic Frost memos reveal that Biden's...

CannCon and Ashe bring Ash Wednesday with a show that ranges from the absurd to the consequential. Missouri's Supreme Court upholds redrawn congressional maps that effectively eliminate the only Democrat seat, and Mississippi sets a special session to redraw Bennie Thompson's district. Ashe and CannCon use the redistricting wave to make the deeper argument: the real problem is not who draws the di...

JB White records this one at night for the first time ever, and somehow delivers one of his more loaded episodes. He walks through two sharp posts on Trump's China visit: Rob Cunningham's framing of the industry CEO delegation as a negotiation over the global financial operating system, and AJ Inapi's systematic breakdown of every pillar of Chinese global leverage that the Trump administration has...

Alpha Warrior and Josh Reid open with the Thomas Massie scandal that broke today, an alleged relationship with Anessa West, a South Africa trip with corroborating photos, and a hush money offer from something called a cow money fund. Pair that with Marjorie Taylor Greene quietly relocating to a five million dollar house in Costa Rica, which conveniently does not extradite to The United States, and...

CannCon and Ashe in America welcome Dr. Andrew Paquette, known online as Zark Files, research director for New York Citizens Audit and one of the most technically rigorous voices in election integrity work. Dr. Paquette walks through five years of voter roll analysis across more than a dozen states, explaining how he reverse engineered four distinct algorithms embedded in New York's voter registra...

Ghost opens episode 106 with the Senate hearing where Lindsey Graham attacks Pakistan as mediator, then cuts to Trump defending Pakistan's field marshal and prime minister in real time. Two landmark op-eds frame the hour: Robert Kagan's Atlantic piece declaring the Iran confrontation a strategic defeat for US-led hegemony, and Prince Turki al-Faisal's Arab News essay crediting MBS with quietly pul...

Jon Herold comes in Tuesday energized and with receipts. The FBI is now actively interviewing CIA officials as part of the Brennan investigation into the 2017 Russian intelligence assessment, and Jon plays a recent Brennan clip where the man openly admits to knowing about a "legion" of professionals inside the government still working against Trump. Jon flags it as potential RICO furtherance on ta...

CannCon and Ghost open Tuesday's geopolitics-heavy show with Ghost leading the charge. John Brennan goes on MSNBC and openly tells embedded bureaucrats to hold the line, and James Comey follows with the same message minutes later, giving CannCon two dog whistles in one segment to unpack. Netanyahu tells 60 Minutes he wants to zero out the $3.8 billion in annual US military aid within a decade, and...

Episode 184 is a call-in show, and the audience delivers. Jon Herold and Zak Paine open with a reaction to Christopher Nolan's Odyssey trailer, breaking down the DEI casting choices that put Elliot Page as Achilles and Lupita Nyong'o as Helen of Troy, and the Oscar diversity requirements that made it happen. From there, the conversation covers the UFO file releases and Jon's concern that the slow...

Ashe sits down with filmmaker Matt Thayer for a wide ranging conversation about telling stories that matter in a culture that desperately needs them. From "The Trump I Know" to the upcoming theatrical release "No Limbs, No Limits," the story of Nick Vujicic, this episode is part film conversation, part theology, and part election accountability. What does authentic Christian faith look like when t...

Ghost and Jordan Sather team up to trace the most consequential dynasty in American history: the Rockefellers. From John D. Rockefeller's oil monopoly and JPMorgan's steel consolidation to the invention of the holding company by the law firm that later became the CIA, the dots connect in ways that still reverberate in 2026. Jordan breaks down how the Rockefellers engineered the modern pharmaceutic...
