Endless conflicts, debates, and crime dominate the stories in television, newspapers, and the vast world of social media. Perhaps you often find yourself puzzled or dumbfounded by society’s current state of decline. Why do people act this way? Why are so many attracted to misinformation? Do people accept lies so easily?

Episodes

Fight fire with "Little Boy " 19.01.2026

That's what you say when you mean blow it up. Keep the space between your ears clear of confusion. Clear of indecisiveness. And particularly clear of false conclusions. You are never in control. Control what you can control. Your thoughts.

Fixing what you didn't break 16.01.2026

won't work.  If you broke it you can  fix it. You have to admit it's broken. What if  it serves your purpose, you don't want it  fixed. 

Move a ton, not different then a little 14.01.2026

It's not as cumbersome as it looks. But you  can't leave your mess for anyone to clean it up.  Take on the task, one bit at a time, one crumb at  a time. 

Play on words; hidden meaning 12.01.2026

Do you think that words can have a double meaning?  Maybe they just don't mean what you think they do  because of how they are written. Fool you? Shouldn't if you have common sense.

What they want you to think 09.01.2026

that you are in the minority. Also that what  you think doesn't matter because the majority don't think like you. Wrong. 

You tell me 07.01.2026

can the government fix whatever problems you have.  You can't rely on anything that isn't accountable for their  actions. Is it time for us to step up and hold them accountable?  You tell me. 

If you are in charge 05.01.2026

Do you ask permission, or should you act  in the best interest of those you are in charge of.  You alone know what you would do, but we are better  off with who is in charge now. 

If you didn't earn it can you own it 02.01.2026

If you didn't vote for it, you still have to live with it.  You get what you didn't earn, whether you voted or  not. Maybe you are better off voting for it. At least  you can claim it. 

You can't pretend to be real 31.12.2025

Reality is real. It is present. It does show  you truth. Truth is not present in pretending.  It is only in reality. 

Obeying is freedom; not subservience 29.12.2025

Understanding the meaning is more important then  knowing what it means. But we wouldn't know that. We only  go by what we are told, not what we have learned. 

Follow the law you like 26.12.2025

Ignore the rest of them. You can't be held accountable for your actions so what does it matter. You might not want to follow any law at all. I'm sure you will get away with that too.

Don't stomp on my Christmas dream 24.12.2025

The Man and the birds can speak to you  about what you believe. But you don't have to believe. Its up to you. As you wish.

Can you be made to believe? 22.12.2025

You are your own human. You can  think for yourself, but do you believe that.  All about what you think. You need to hold on  to the fact that you are a thinker. 

So many judges; so little justices 19.12.2025

View justice from reasoning, or from what  you think it should look like, and there is no  justice at all. Repeat mistakes from the past  and you will no longer have any justice at all. 

He cared so much, he couldn't help him 17.12.2025

Your life is not what you care about, it's about how  you help people. If you choose not to help stop caring because caring is not action. Helping people is. 

Throwing a wet blanket on the law 15.12.2025

Does the judge have the final say in our system  of laws? It might surprise you that the judge does  not interpret the law, they only apply it. Obviously  they don't know what their job is, and their not the  only ones. 

You have done enough for me lately 12.12.2025

You can let me go my own way now if you please.  That will never happen my audience. Take others  words for it, not mine. 

What if we can't be freed 10.12.2025

It isn't in our heritage so we can't accept freedom. What if all we do is live the life  we knew before, because we cannot change  our life we knew before. Then America  is not the way we thought it could be. 

First impression sticks like crazy glue 09.12.2025

as a result whatever thoughts break through  cannot get through ever. It's a game. We lose  because we never make the first impression, we  just keep chasing the story. 

Truth is the needle in the haystack 05.12.2025

If you don't investigate you can't get to the truth. You must  examine through the lens of each element and put them all together, but we can't do that. We base truth on non evidence.

Give in: Get nothing 03.12.2025

You can be oppressed to give in, but you  lose every time you do. Whatever you need  isn't from a negotiated settlement that only gives  to one party. Each party has to win. When you give in  only one wins. 

Is it the system that is broken 01.12.2025

You need to hear what we think. Bring  the popcorn and stop thinking the way  they tell you to. Enough already.

Put that tail where it belongs 28.11.2025

The left thinks they can put their tail anywhere  and then you won't know that it belongs on their  ass. They get away with it all the time. 

Indian giver are you thankful or not 26.11.2025

Well it just is never enough is it? You can't  be thankful if you don't have what you want.  Shame, its much more fun to be grateful. 

Turning the law on it's head 24.11.2025

Upside down. Interpreting the law  has immense challenges. What if we  never get to justice. What if we never  interpret the law correctly.
