The System is Down with Dan Smotz

The question of the day is.... Will technology go too far? We've seen it in countless Hollywood movies; man builds robots, robots get too smart, man gets wiped out. With the ever increasing speed of technological advances where technology builds technology, will we allow it to get to that point? Today's episode is my conversation with entrepreneur, politician, and transhumanist, Zoltan I...

The FBI mysteriously shuts down a solar observatory in NM, Norm Macdonald has a crazy new show, SJW's continue to melt the world and much much more. Tune in live as Dan and Craig cover what's supposedly happening in the world. Call in: 309 716 3818 http://antinewslive.com Support the show

Well, we're going for it. In a day and age where looking at someone the wrong way can get you branded an antisemite or a nazi,.... we are going to touch the untouchable topic and talk about the Jews. The entire point of this show since its inception, was to have the discussions that most people are too uncomfortable to have or that we're not allowed to have. As I watch channel after chan...

Today's episode is my latest with the great Ole Dammegard. Ole returns to the show this time, to break down what signs to look for in spotting a mind control false flag attack.  We dug into a bit of everything from 9/11 to the fires raging all around the world including in California, to the Parkland shooting, to the video game shooting, to false flag attacks in foreign countries that I haven...

With all the monkeying around that's been going on, there's a whole lot of nonsense in the world. Tune in and watch Dan and Craig give you the rundown of this week's happenings live! 309-716-3818 http://antinewslive.com http://tsidpod.com Support the show

The obvious question of the day is…. What the **** is going on in Afghanistan? I don’t feel like nearly enough people are asking this question. We’re going on 17 years at war now, Bin Laden has been dead for 7.5 years, John McCain is dead, the war death count is in the tens of thousands and still climbing, but nobody seems to have a good reason for why we’re even there. Today’s episode is my conve...

We're kicking off a new weekly show on The System is Down! The AntiNews is a segment that Dan and Craig have been doing exclusively for members of The Downers Club for quite some time, but we've decided it's high time to take it public with a bonus AfterParty for Club members! The AntiNews is our weekly unfiltered coverage of what's happening in the world with Dan and Craig&apo...

The question of the day is.... Is there a line in comedy that should not be crossed? Are there things that just shouldn't be joked about? We're living in a strange time, where definitions of words are changing, where speech is violence, where you have to constantly walk on eggshells if you're concerned about offending someone. With all of these fragile new norms, comedy has tragical...

If there’s a question of the day, the obvious one is... Who is Q?… or What is Q?… or Who are Q?… or where or what or when is Q? If you’ve been paying attention to the news, mainstream or otherwise at this point, there’s a pretty good likelihood that Q Anon has come across your radar in one way or another. The mainstream media spins him or it into an “alt-right absurd conspiracy theory” while many...

The question of the day is.... Has there been an area, a social group, or a time period in your life where you felt like an outcast?  Today's episode is my conversation with Skot Shaw of the Christian Goth band, Leper, which was recorded on location at Audiofeed Music Festival. It's probably safe to assume that at first glance, people perceive Skot as an angsty sinister individual, but a...

The question of the day is.... What is masculinity? We live in a strange time where men are either not "manly" enough, or they're "manly" to a "toxic" fault. So, where's the line? Is there a box that defines your level of manhood and are you less of a man if you step outside that box? I hope not because if I wasn't born outside that box from the start,...

The question of the day is... Where do you get your information?... As the traditional news sources continue to show their biased hands and become less and less trustworthy, where do you go? The internet is (sometimes) a wonderful thing. Thanks to the inception of podcasts and online shows, we now have the ability to look elsewhere, weigh the evidence and talking points for ourselves, and come to...

The question of the day is... How much is enough? Is there a point where you have too much or should feel bad for having more posessions in one room of your house than many people will ever own in their lifetime? Let me know. Today's episode is my conversation with repeat offender Gret Glyer, the CEO and creator of one of my favorite companies, DonorSee. DonorSee is something that has honestl...

The question of the day is… What would it take for you to change your mind?… We all have deep set beliefs on everything from politics, to religion, to social issues, to conspiracies, and beyond. I would encourage you to question why it is that you believe what you believe and what evidence to the contrary it would take for you to believe the opposite.   My guest today is a great example of the of...

The question of the day is... Abortion? This is an issue that has been politicized and used to divide the masses. One side thinks that the other is trying to take away women's rights, while the other side thinks that the first side is murdering babies... So where do you stand? It's a sticky subject, to say the least, so it is, of course, perfect for The System is Down. I know a lot of pe...

You know... There are just not enough hours in the day... It's something that I heard adults say many times when I was a child and teen, but there are seriously not enough hours in the day. Between eight hours of shutting your body down to 8-10 hours of work to family, friends, hobbies, etc,... life is just so full these days... And I'm not saying this to complain. I have a great life, a...

 The question of the day is... Transgenderism?... That's it because there are so many questions around this topic. Should they get to choose their bathrooms, should they get to participate in the sports categories that they identify as, are their brains in the wrong body, should it be treated as a mental illness, and so on and so forth?... On today's episode I brought my TriPartisan (Dem...

Well, we're back again with another unorthodox episode to bring you another update on this case. Some strange twists have popped up and it's getting harder and harder to know who to trust. Either way, something fishy is going on and I believe there is more to this than we're being led to believe. You be the judge.    Question Everything and Stay Uncomfortable   https://www.facebook....

Well, we're continuing with the unconventionality because I feel pretty strongly about this case and keeping you guys and gals up to date on what's happening. If you're not familiar, check out episode 59 where we broke down the first days of Veterans on Patrol's attempt to expose child sex slavery camps and what appears to be the media and government's attempt to stop them...

Well ladies and gentlemen, this episode is a very unconventional one for this show. We were first alerted to this case on Tuesday and we recorded this episode documenting every thing that we knew so far about it. The plan was to release this in the normal Monday morning slot on June 11, 2018. However, this case is unfolding so rapidly in front of our eyes and because I think it is so important to...

The question of the day is... "Psychedelics: Good? Bad? Dangerous? Revolutionary?"Of course there is still a massive stigma around this topic and it's very likely the result of lack of education or experience. From anarchy to death metal, people are always the most frightened of what they just don't understand. I myself, have personally never tried psychedelics, so I cannot and...

They say "Don't meet your heroes".... Well, at least don't go on their podcast and debate them on Flat Earth. ;)This bonus episode is my discussion with Matt Macdonald (The Classic Crime) and Nate Henry (Sherwood), where they invited me on their podcast, Don't Feed the Trolls, for a little Flat Earth chat and oh, you know I had fun with it.  While I've been a big fan...
