The crew dives into the latest narrative warfare swirling around Trump's supposed Epstein “letter,” laughing off media traps while warning about the deeper disinfo games at play. They explore the political optics of Trump's messaging strategy, the timing of elite media distractions, and how Hollywood, big pharma, and government players keep rotating through the same scripted scandals. Commentary spans from Fauci's ghost reappearances and collapsing narratives around COVID origins, to grifters and gatekeepers losing control of the online space. With the perfect blend of sarcasm, camaraderie, and serious insight, the panel also touches on spiritual warfare, redemption arcs, and the need for grit and clarity in chaotic times. Whether they're poking fun at the regime's desperation or dropping truth bombs on complacency, this episode proves once again that when Badlands hosts team up, no topic is safe, and no narrative survives unscathed.
In this reflective and often irreverent solo episode of Spellbreakers, host Matt Trump dives into the cultural funeral of Stephen Colbert's late-night career. From Colbert's early comedic heyday on Comedy Central to his final act as a vaccine-dancing cheerleader for the establishment, Matt unpacks the tragic arc of a once-promising entertainer who, in his view, sold out to political orthodoxy. With humor, personal anecdotes, and a nostalgic lens on Johnny Carson's era, the episode explores the decline of broadcast TV, the death of the late-night format, and the broader cultural implications of Colbert's cancellation. Matt shares his own evolution from former fan to critic, considers why modern talk shows no longer resonate, and even touches on how Colorado and Keanu Reeves might still give him hope. Sprinkled with satire and a little heartbreak, this episode captures a generational shift in American media with one final sendoff, complete with a cringeworthy trip down vaccine musical memory lane.
In this episode of Why We Vote, CannCon and Ashe in America are joined by Colonel Shawn Smith for a powerful and sobering conversation about the systemic breakdown of election integrity in the United States. Colonel Smith lays out how key security measures, chain of custody, physical ballot controls, machine audits, and software transparency, have been steadily abandoned across counties and states. He warns that elections are now untrustworthy by design, not by accident. Drawing from real-world examples and battlefield-tested leadership, Colonel Smith urges Americans to reject the comforting illusion that someone else is fixing the problem. Instead, he calls for civic courage and mass local engagement, arguing that only organized citizens can restore trust in the vote. The discussion dismantles the myth of risk-limiting audits, challenges the blind faith in state institutions, and highlights how fear and apathy have paralyzed action in the face of obvious fraud. Blunt, urgent, and deeply motivating, this episode issues a clear call: get involved now, or surrender your voice forever.
In this episode of MAHA News, Jordan Sather and Nate Prince unpack the media's escalating meltdowns as legacy narratives collapse.

As the system tries to reassert control, the hosts remind listeners that truth is rising, and the louder the propaganda gets, the closer we are to breakthrough.
In this episode of Geopolitics with Ghost, Ghost tackles the coordinated pressure campaign aimed at dragging the U.S. into another global conflict, this time via Taiwan. As Taiwan prepares for war games and the U.S. ramps up military involvement, Ghost questions whether this escalation is a genuine defense strategy or another trap set by globalist planners to provoke China and secure profit. He breaks down Israel's growing influence in shaping Western politics and media, spotlighting an ADL meeting with the White House and strategic moves to conflate antisemitism with any criticism of Israel. Ghost explains how this manipulation has infected everything from diversity hires in government to the prioritization of Ukraine over struggling American cities. Also covered are Venezuela's oil market leverage, the U.S. military's recruitment woes, and the relentless use of “woke” social engineering to weaken national unity. Ghost warns listeners to watch for optics, decode the narratives, and stay grounded as economic and cultural warfare escalates. Packed with sharp analysis and unfiltered takes, this episode delivers a warning: the next manufactured crisis is already in motion.

The discussion covers rising public outrage over border chaos, with state and local governments strained by illegal immigration and migrant crime. CannCon and Chris argue that the border crisis is not just a policy failure but a psychological and financial pressure campaign designed to destabilize the nation. They also examine Biden's pattern of conveniently timed executive privilege claims, the media's coordinated spin operations, and how scripted moral panics are failing to hold the public's attention. From performative outrage on social platforms to “Epstein list” distractions, the hosts make the case that the establishment is flailing, because their mechanisms of control are breaking down. With wit, precision, and a clear eye on the bigger picture, this episode highlights the collapsing illusion and the power of staying grounded in truth while the system runs out of tricks.
In this episode of Breaking History, Matt Ehret and Ghost explore how the Western political and financial elite have gaslit the public into believing in a moral high ground that doesn't exist.

The hosts dig into France's recent declaration to reintroduce conscription and what it signals about NATO's desperation, alongside the fading credibility of the UN and EU. Meanwhile, they examine how countries like Indonesia, India, and Saudi Arabia are quietly shifting toward BRICS and the Belt and Road Initiative, rejecting IMF austerity in favor of development-driven partnerships. Also discussed is the spiritual dimension of this geopolitical divide: the West's moral decay versus the East's emphasis on cultural and civilizational revival. The episode closes with reflections on how controlled revolutions, color movements, and financial sabotage are tools of empire, and why rejecting false dialectics is the first step toward real sovereignty. This is a sharp, global analysis of a world at the tipping point.
In this episode of SITREP, CannCon and Alpha Warrior are joined by special guest Reeve Swainston for a raw, detailed discussion on the collapse of American institutions and the global stage being set for high-stakes accountability. Reeve unpacks his own background and recent suspensions from Twitter for posting FOIA-verified evidence, highlighting how the regime suppresses truth while enabling war criminals and open-border chaos. The conversation exposes how U.S. taxpayer dollars are flowing to illegal immigrants, how mass migration is being used as a psychological weapon, and how both federal agencies and local governments are complicit. The trio also covers war crimes in Gaza, Ukraine, and Yemen, tying together human trafficking, medical corruption, and globalist goals for depopulation and control. With sharp insight and mounting evidence, the hosts argue we're witnessing a coordinated takedown of sovereign nations through lawfare, demoralization, and deception. But they also point to signs of awakening, within the public and the system itself. This episode is a wake-up call packed with receipts, exposing the real enemy and the lengths they'll go to in order to maintain the illusion.
In this episode of Quite Frankly, Frankie Val dives headfirst into the Orwellian tactics of modern censorship and the emerging threats of AI-driven narrative control. He opens with commentary on Trump's viral “Epstein hoax” post and explores whether it's a strategic nudge to expose mainstream hypocrisy or a larger piece of psychological warfare. Frankie digs into Google's new “About This Image” tool, explaining how it fits into a broader campaign to delegitimize independent research, especially around subjects like biolabs, war crimes, and election interference. He compares these efforts to digital book burning, where tech giants erase context and reshape the past in real time. From secret Fauci emails about Wuhan labs to bombshell articles on war profiteering and suppressed medical data, the episode paints a clear picture: we're in an information war, and the battlefield is your perception. Frankie wraps with a passionate call to seek truth beyond curated headlines, reminding listeners that history is being rewritten by those who fear transparency most.
In this episode of Taking It Back, Zak Paine and Adel Nero go deep on Trump's bold Truth Social post declaring the “Jeffrey Epstein Hoax,” analyzing the former president's messaging and media strategy.

The conversation expands into a broader discussion of legacy media collapse, independent journalism's rise, and how Trump supporters must look beyond emotional triggers to understand the long game. They also tackle the role of Maureen Comey in prosecuting high-profile trafficking cases, her sudden firing, and the implications for future investigations. With humor, clarity, and plenty of sharp edge, the hosts call out performative influencers, explain why mainstream polling still favors Trump despite the media circus, and highlight how blackmail networks could be rooted in deep intelligence operations far beyond Epstein himself.

The hosts revisit Trump's repeated messaging on the border crisis, arguing that his early warnings and solutions are now being vindicated by undeniable collapse. They explore how narratives are used to shape perception, highlighting “deconstruction” of corrupt systems versus “demoralization” of the public, and why Trump's positioning as the only viable solution is central to the story. The discussion also touches on the use of reverse psychology in shaping media narratives, why the truth must often be “lived through,” and how manufactured chaos may be used to awaken rather than defeat. In a time when trust is scarce and institutions are crumbling, the episode suggests Trump is not just calling out the problems, he's allowing the collapse to become visible enough that people will demand real change.
In this episode of Altered State, Zak “RedPill78” Paine and Ghost explore the battlefield of narrative control, exposing how media, government, and social engineering campaigns have flipped truth and fiction to keep the public in a state of confusion.

They also touch on the decaying credibility of mainstream journalism, the collapse of faith in public institutions, and the importance of discernment in a world built on inversion.

In this episode of The Daily Herold, Jon Herold sits down with journalist Gabby Cuccia for a candid conversation about government overreach and media suppression. Gabby recounts her experience as a Pentagon correspondent, where locked briefing doors, a refusal to hold press conferences, and the persistence of Obama-era holdovers sparked her investigation into a lack of transparency. Her reporting ultimately led to Pentagon officials twice contacting her employer to pressure them over her coverage, resulting in her firing.

The reading underscores how overreaching rules, from cosmetology mandates to emergency COVID edicts, systematically erode community bonds and self-reliance. The hosts reflect on the paradox of laws meant to protect freedom but increasingly used to control dissent, shut down small businesses, and undermine civic trust.

The conversation explores newly resurfaced testimony, conflicting claims about hidden tapes, and the potential for a looming special prosecutor to crack open the entire network. Tensions run high as they discuss how the files have become a trap set to divide the MAGA base and question why Democrats, after years of silence, suddenly demand the records be released. The hosts also connect the Epstein scandal to broader threads of global child trafficking, intelligence operations, and the shadowy influence of foreign powers in Washington. Throughout, they challenge each other, and the audience, to separate hope from proof and to brace for the possibility of a disappointment that could splinter the movement.

They kick off by belatedly marking the 4th of July with X's “Fourth of July,” Tom Petty's “American Girl,” and the tongue-in-cheek “United States of Whatever.” Along the way, they share stories of vinyl collections, musical awakenings, and unforgettable live shows. The episode features everything from Kim Wilde's “Kids in America” to Kid Rock's “American Badass” and Neil Diamond's iconic “America.” They reflect on the patriotic surge after 9/11 and play Toby Keith's “Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue,” Lynyrd Skynyrd's comeback hit “Red White and Blue,” and Steve Miller Band's “Living in the USA.” Interwoven are lively anecdotes about guitars, recording studios, and the authenticity of New Yorkers. The hosts close with WASP's fiery performance and Hendrix's legendary Woodstock rendition of the Star-Spangled Banner, capturing the spirit, pride, and contradictions of America through music.
In this rollicking episode of The Liberty Den, a rotating crew of Badlands Media hosts dive into a sprawling discussion that zigzags from personal ice maker obsessions to conspiracies worthy of a thriller. The group debates the rumored showdown between Dan Bongino, Kash Patel, and Pam Bondi, weighing whether it's genuine infighting or political theater designed to confuse and distract. They break down John Solomon's bombshell reporting about an ongoing criminal conspiracy case tracing back to Russiagate, Hillary Clinton, and the CIA, all the way to the 2020 election and beyond. The conversation shifts into theories about timing, the possibility of a RICO case encompassing years of misconduct, and what mass accountability could look like. Amid the heavy topics, there's plenty of irreverent banter about Bitcoin as the unstoppable plan, band camp confessions, pickleball firefighting, and a few tongue-in-cheek product pitches. By the end, the hosts muse about whether public spectacle and reality TV might be the only way to root out corruption once and for all.
In this mind-bending episode, Ashe in America welcomes Draza Smith for an unprecedented deep dive into the mechanics of election systems and the hidden patterns behind vote counts. They kick off with headlines about Ken Paxton's investigations and divorce scandal, lawsuits over New York's 2024 election, and Wisconsin's missing ballots, before diving into Draza's groundbreaking research. Draza explains her discovery that vote totals in numerous counties consistently return to predictable set points, behaving less like random human choices and more like engineered outcomes governed by probabilistic models. She details how cast vote records, when sorted in different ways (what she calls the “Arapaho Twist”), reveal mathematically improbable patterns, like “partisan parallel motion”, across races, states, and vendors. The discussion escalates into her theory that the deterministic decay curves used in quantum mechanics can model elections with uncanny accuracy, suggesting outcomes are pre-calculated to reach a ratio no matter how many ballots are processed. With charts, analogies, and lively back-and-forth about election integrity, transparency, and why “glitches” are never just glitches, this episode challenges everything you think you know about vote counting, and offers a radical framework for understanding how it might really work.
In this jam-packed episode, Jordan Sather and Nate Prince cover the week's most controversial headlines shaping food freedom, health, and the environment. They begin with Trump EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin's pledge to release everything the government knows about geoengineering and contrails, an unprecedented transparency move that RFK Jr. called an end to the “diabolical mass poisoning.” From there, they dig into the Utah trial of Dr. Kirk Moore, who faces 35 years in prison for swapping COVID vaccines with saline and handing out fake cards, sparking calls for a presidential pardon. The show turns to agriculture, breaking down USDA efforts to reopen, and then quickly reclose, the border to Mexican cattle imports over a flesh-eating screwworm outbreak. The hosts expose how Big Ag monopolies and groups like the American Farm Bureau lobby against small ranchers, GMO labeling, and decentralizing meat processing. Other segments highlight the quiet swap of glyphosate for the even more toxic herbicide diquat in Roundup, the politics of cannabis rescheduling, and RFK Jr.'s long-game strategy to build an irrefutable legal case against vaccine manufacturers. Packed with banter, historical context, and personal stories about farming and health, this episode delivers both big-picture perspective and practical takeaways.
In this expansive episode, Ghost dives deep into Africa's shifting alliances and the global scramble for critical resources. He opens with Trump's Africa Summit, where five West African nations were invited to Washington to negotiate trade deals centered on rare earth minerals, oil, and gas. Ghost methodically dissects NPR and AP coverage, showing how Western media narratives obscure the real incentives driving U.S. outreach, countering China's and Russia's growing footholds across the continent. Using detailed maps and timelines, he explains how military coups in Mali, Niger, and Burkina Faso have created a new power bloc aligned with Russia, and why Liberia, Gabon, and others were strategically selected for engagement. The conversation moves to the Pentagon's controversial investment in MP Materials, effectively nationalizing America's only rare earth mine to break dependence on Chinese supply chains. Ghost then pivots to Israel's turmoil, exploring how Netanyahu's government is trapped between domestic collapse, far-right coalition partners, and stalled Gaza negotiations. With plenty of sidebars, on rare earth land grabs, CIA-backed coups, and the long game of economic warfare, this episode is equal parts exposé and history lesson, revealing how old empires still pull the strings behind modern headlines.
In this end-of-week episode, Jon Herold takes listeners on a whirlwind tour of stories ranging from financial policy to the latest chaos in alternative media. He starts by dissecting the controversy around the Epstein memo, addressing Laura Loomer's claim that Kash Patel and Dan Bongino were furious over Pam Bondi's handling of the files, a narrative Jon dismisses as clickbait given that the DOJ's statements mirrored Kash Patel's earlier comments on Joe Rogan. Shifting gears, Jon digs into Trump's escalating pressure campaign on Jerome Powell, explaining how the president's repeated jabs at the Fed chair are likely intentional to ensure Powell won't cut rates, buying time for more structural moves. Other highlights include Judicial Watch suing the DOJ for records on Virginia Giuffre, who died under mysterious circumstances in Australia, the DOJ weighing in on RFK Jr.'s antitrust lawsuit against Big Tech censorship cartels, and the EPA rolling out a new “transparency portal” on contrails and geoengineering. Jon wraps up with reflections on bitcoin smashing past $118,000, silver surging, and a bizarre story about a startup raising hundreds of millions to manufacture pharmaceuticals in orbit, proof, he jokes, that dystopian sci-fi is already here.
In this episode, Chris Paul and Ghost dissect the week's most controversial stories, starting with the DOJ's decision to file an antitrust statement of interest against the Trusted News Initiative. They explain how RFK Jr.'s Children's Health Defense lawsuit accuses Big Tech and legacy media of colluding to censor dissent and shut out competitors. The conversation shifts to the FDA's approval of Moderna's Spikevax shot for young children, sparking outrage over continued mandates for a virus the hosts argue was always exaggerated. They dive into the chaos at Elon Musk's X platform, where Grok AI versions 3 and 4 ignited firestorms by spouting antisemitic rants about Israel, prompting CEO Linda Yaccarino's abrupt resignation. With perfect timing, the meltdown coincided with Netanyahu's tense visit to Washington and a flood of speculation about orchestrated psyops. The show also explores how AI censorship works across every topic, from election narratives to health policy, and why Substack and Twitter have become the new fronts for narrative warfare. On the geopolitical side, they break down Trump's move to hand weapons to NATO rather than Ukraine, Israel's internal power struggles, and Europe's hollow nuclear threats. Packed with humor and big-picture analysis, this episode challenges every official storyline.
This special Thursday edition of OnlyLands is a whirlwind of rants, nostalgia, and wild tangents. The hosts kick off by roasting SitRep's no-show and joking about XRP shilling before launching into a spontaneous promo for the Great American Restoration Tour in Deadwood. From there, it's an anything-goes marathon covering everything from the Mandela Effect, like the group's collective memory of Stouffer's Stove Top Stuffing that apparently never existed, to theories about AI's uncanny ability to rewire reality. The panel swaps hilarious horror stories about dead bodies, foot phobias, and bizarre funeral mishaps, then pivots to darker territory, questioning whether government psyops and state capture are so deeply entrenched that true transparency is impossible. Other highlights include a spirited debate about the Kennedy dynasty, the potential downfall of AI like Grok, Tom Hanks' curious movie choices, and the pervasive idol worship of politicians. With irreverent humor, skeptical deep-dives, and plenty of sidebars, this episode is equal parts stand-up therapy session and a sharp critique of a culture obsessed with TV characters and feel-good narratives.
In this introspective episode, Frankie Val sits down with Badlands Media founder Jon Herold for a candid discussion about the triumphs and pitfalls of the alternative media world. They trace the rise of new platforms and the pressures that come with monetization, including the relentless grind to produce content and the echo chambers that breed both tribalism and burnout. Jon shares behind-the-scenes stories of building Badlands, from battling suppression and shadow banning on every major platform to launching the Great American Restoration Tour as a way to reconnect people offline. The two dissect the viral backlash to Trump's curt dismissal of Epstein questions and debate whether the memo “rug pull” was a deliberate op to fracture the movement or simply more evidence of systemic opacity. They also explore how clickbait culture and algorithm incentives have hollowed out genuine inquiry, replacing curiosity with perpetual outrage. From personal anecdotes about navigating online smear campaigns to reflections on what audiences really want, community, honest dialogue, and time away from the doom cycle, this episode offers a thoughtful look at where independent media is heading and why it still matters.
In this thoughtful episode, Adel Nero, Frankie Val, and Zak “RedPill78” Paine step back from the news cycle to reflect on burnout, balance, and the growing disillusionment with both mainstream and alternative media. The conversation begins with stories of Fourth of July celebrations and the power of simple moments that recharge the spirit. From there, the hosts explore why nonstop news consumption exhausts audiences and content creators alike, and how monetization incentives on platforms like Twitter have made rage-bait and doomscrolling more pervasive than ever. The discussion turns to the week's biggest controversy, Trump's dismissive remarks about Epstein questions and the DOJ memo claiming no client list or blackmail existed. Each host shares their perspective on whether this was strategic misdirection, a genuine blunder, or a necessary delay to avoid destabilizing the world economy before the midterms. They debate Pam Bondi's confusing statements, the expectations set by independent media, and why none of us truly know what's unfolding behind closed doors. Grounded in personal honesty, this episode argues that reclaiming your peace of mind may be just as important as exposing corruption.
In this episode of The Daily Herold, Jon Herold digs into the week's biggest headlines with humor and sharp analysis. He opens by unpacking the Pentagon's massive investment in MP Materials, which effectively makes the Department of Defense the largest shareholder in America's only operational rare earth mine, a move Jon calls a stealth nationalization disguised as a “public-private partnership.” He then breaks down Trump's 50% copper tariff, its national security rationale, and Brazil's retaliatory tariff threats after Trump hit them over free speech suppression. The show dives deep into Russiagate developments, including the new FISA court approvals to share previously classified Carter Page warrant documents with Congress, and Jon questions why John Durham didn't uncover what Ratcliffe's criminal referral on John Brennan has exposed. Other highlights include Secret Service suspensions tied to the Trump assassination attempt, NASA's leadership shake-up, Supreme Court rulings blocking Trump's birthright citizenship order, and Trump's newly announced tariffs on Brazil. Jon wraps up by calling for more transparency, less rainbow-pilled hopium, and a sober look at how narrative control shapes expectations.
