Alpha Warrior and Josh Reid come in energized this week, breaking down why a national emergency around election integrity looks more likely by the day and what that could mean heading into the midterms. They dig into Todd Blanche officially stepping into the Attorney General role, why that confirmation unlocks new subpoena power, and how new investigations into California and Minnesota ballot acti...

CannCon and Ashe in America bill this one as the second Bad Mood Hour, and fair warning, you may leave a little triggered. This time the focus shifts away from machines and mail-in ballots to the thing nobody talks about enough: voter registration itself. Their guest is Kim Brooks of theGANerds, back after a couple of years and armed with receipts. She lays out what she calls Georgia's DART databa...

Jon Herold digs deep into Andrew McCabe's own memoir to fill in the timeline on how Sessions told him he'd be acting FBI director just a day before McCabe's team opened its investigation into Sessions, then pairs that with old Trump tweets questioning Sessions' recusal to build out his running theory on the weaponized intelligence community. He also breaks down newly released Fauci text messages s...

CannCon runs solo again for the midweek show and opens with a look at big pharma donations flowing to senators who were not even up for reelection at the time, before playing an RFK Jr clip on the search for an environmental trigger behind rising childhood chronic illness. The centerpiece of the show is a deep dive back into Pfizer's own pregnancy and lactation safety data, walked through with the...

Jon Herold and Zak Paine open with a genuinely wild New York Times report about President Trump getting smuggled out of Turkey in a catering cart after the NATO summit, and the guys pick apart why a story like that ever got leaked in the first place, let alone confirmed. From there, things go full science fiction as Zak walks through the claims of a credentialed CERN insider who says the Large Had...

Ashe in America flies solo this week (CannCon is out with a bad back) but keeps the momentum going from last episode's deep dive into the Democracy Communications Collaborative's election playbook. He picks up right where they left off, working through how the electorate gets sorted into eight distinct "audience wedges" and what messaging is designed to move each group toward a very specific idea...

Matthew Ehret picked a provocative episode title on purpose, and then spends the hour arguing against the very narrative it seems to promise. Joined by researcher Mike King, contributor to Ehret's book Black Sun Rising, the two dig into why the popular "evil Jews run everything" trope is, in their view, itself a limited hangout, a partial truth used to steer people away from older, deeper power st...

Michelle of Tamarac Garden joins Ashe, Christy, and Jackie for a back to school episode that is equal parts practical and playful. Before getting into the good stuff, the ladies debate whether stale Peeps are a delicacy or a crime, trade stories about husbands who turn into dramatic patients the moment they get hurt, and share a genuinely useful phone trick for stopping notifications from ruining...

Jon Herold kicks off Monday digging into newly declassified documents showing the FBI opened an investigation into Jeff Sessions, codenamed "March Toll," the day after James Comey was fired, arguing the timing exposes a deliberate effort to prolong the Russia collusion narrative. He tracks down old McCabe congressional testimony while building out his own timeline connecting the Sessions probe to...

CannCon and Zak Paine open with a follow up on the Air Force One missile capability story, connecting it to a possible canary trap and predicting some accountability is coming for whoever leaked it. From there they play a clip of President Trump weighing in on John Thune's future as Senate Majority Leader before turning their frustration toward the Senate voting to leave for a 40 day recess withou...

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...
