Plausible Foolishness

Why is the world the way that it is? Is it just a result of the Fall? Or is there more than just that? Yes, there is. A spiritual war that has been raging since the dawn of time.Show Notes00:00:00 - 00:00:47* Introduction to Supernatural Beings* The episode opens with a discussion on the origins of deities, suggesting that they were real beings assigned to watch over nations but failed by directing worship to themselves instead of Yahweh.* Key Quote: "They were ones that were actually supposed to watch over these nations. And point them to Yahweh. But they failed and they started pointing the nations to themselves."00:00:47 - 00:02:09* Podcast Introduction and Banter* The hosts introduce themselves as the "two kings of the Rube Empire," describing themselves as "right-wing extremists," "supernaturalists," and "Christian bigots" in a tongue-in-cheek manner.* They welcome listeners to the Kingsplaining Podcast, emphasizing its status as the "best podcast in the world."* The hosts express excitement for the month of May and discuss the upcoming summer, with the Iron King noting his kids will soon be home from school.* Key Quote: "Kingsplaining.com, the absolute best podcast in the entire world."00:02:09 - 00:04:12* Homeschooling and Family Dynamics* The Iron King shares his experience with homeschooling, describing it as a consistent and rewarding lifestyle.* The hosts discuss the emotional rollercoaster of wanting kids to go back to school but also enjoying their presence at home.* They touch on gender dynamics, humorously noting that women are agents of change while men seek stability.* Key Quote: "Women are agents of change. Men change once during puberty and then it's just stability."00:04:12 - 00:09:43* The 100 Men vs. One Gorilla Debate* The hosts dive into a viral cultural topic: whether 100 men could defeat a single gorilla in a fight.* They argue that while a gorilla would dominate in a 1v1 scenario, 100 men, especially if organized and including physically elite individuals, would likely win due to sheer numbers and intelligence.* They reference memes and pop culture (e.g., Mel Gibson converting the gorilla, Harambe) to highlight the humorous zeitgeist surrounding the debate.* Key Quote: "100 dudes coming at one gorilla, Hundo's going to win that fight."00:09:43 - 00:12:09* Political Commentary: Absence of "Orange Man Bad"* The hosts note a shift in political discourse, observing that the intense anti-Trump rhetoric ("Orange Man Bad") has been overshadowed by lighter cultural debates like the gorilla question.* They critique the unfulfilled predictions of societal collapse under Trump's administration, now 100 days in.* They discuss Democratic complaints about Trump not lowering prices as promised, pointing out the hypocrisy given the price hikes during the Biden administration.* Key Quote: "We were promised a complete and total collapse of society. And we're 100 days into the Trump administration."00:12:09 - 00:21:41* Trump's First 100 Days: Favorite Policies* Philosopher King's Favorite: Trade War and Tariffs* The Philosopher King praises Trump's tariff policies, arguing they counteract the hollowing out of American manufacturing and support the middle class.* He acknowledges libertarian critiques (tariffs as taxes) but supports them as tactical tools to balance trade inequities with countries like China.* Key Quote: "These are weaponized tariffs. These are tactical tariffs. And I like that."* Iron King's Perspective on Tariffs* The Iron King agrees, likening tariffs to a scale that reveals economic truths, encouraging consumers to buy American-made goods.* He references the Trump-Bezos feud over Amazon showing tariff costs on receipts, viewing it as a political stunt but ultimately beneficial for transparency.* Key Quote: "I actually want you to see how much the tariff is going to cost you. Because then it's going to force you to say, maybe I should buy in America."* Additional Policy Discussion* The hosts mention proposed tax relief measures (e.g., no tax on tips, overtime, or incentives for buying American cars) and subsidies for relocating factories to the U.S.* They express skepticism about long-term subsidies but support temporary measures to boost domestic production.* Key Quote: "The more that we produce here, the easier it will be to do that."00:21:41 - 00:29:32* Trump's First 100 Days: Disappointments* Iron King's Disappointment: Border Security and Deportations* The Iron King praises the reduction in border crossings but is disappointed by the lower deportation numbers compared to Biden's first 100 days.* He criticizes judicial pushback against deportations and questions the authority of the judicial branch, advocating for stronger action.* Key Quote: "What army does the judicial branch have? What authority does the judicial branch have?"* Philosopher King's Disappointment: Anti-Semitism Crackdowns* The Philosopher King sarcastically critiques the focus on arresting people for anti-Semitism, viewing it as a pretext for censorship.* He connects this to broader issues of selective outrage and power structures.* Key Quote: "I'm not interested in this fight against anti-Semitism. Not in the way that they're doing it because it's really just censorship."* Shared Disappointment: Epstein Files* Both hosts express frustration over the lack of arrests related to the Epstein files, questioning the administration's commitment to justice.* They highlight the suspicious death of Virginia Giuffre and the lack of accountability for Ghislaine Maxwell's clients.* Key Quote: "I cannot trust your ability to dole out justice if you refuse to do something about it."* Positive Note: Resistance to War* The hosts commend Trump for resisting calls for war with Iran and Ukraine, despite pressure from neocons and foreign leaders.* Key Quote: "I like that there's pushback against going to war with Iran for no reason."00:29:32 - 01:36:36 (Truncated Section Summarized)* Supernatural and Biblical Discussion* The hosts shift to a deep exploration of biblical prophecy, focusing on Revelation 6 and 9, which describe apocalyptic events, demonic entities, and the wrath of God.* They discuss the concept of a "breakaway civilization," where elites prepare for catastrophic events by building underground bunkers, possibly in anticipation of divine judgment.* They reference Revelation 6, where the powerful hide in caves, calling for mountains to fall on them to escape God's wrath, and connect it to modern elite behavior (e.g., the Obamas' oceanfront property despite climate change warnings).* The hosts speculate on the spiritual nature of these events, suggesting that fallen angels or demonic entities (the "old gods") influence global affairs.* Key Quote: "The elites serve a different master. And it's the same masters that have been here for millennia."* Revelation 9 and Apocalyptic Imagery* They discuss Revelation 9's description of a pit opening, releasing scorpion-like entities, and draw parallels to Noah's time (150 days).* They emphasize the Bible's supernatural elements as a lens for understanding current events.* Key Quote: "We're just reading Revelation because the Bible is always true."01:36:36 - 01:44:59* Connecting to the Normies and Spiritual Warfare* The hosts urge listeners to pay attention to elite actions, not just words, citing examples like the Obamas' contradictory behavior.* They frame the world as a spiritual battlefield, with Christians as infiltrators advancing God's kingdom against demonic forces.* They argue that Jesus' authority, granted at Calvary, empowers believers to preach the gospel and resist evil.* The hosts critique modern paganism and Islam as tools of Satan, describing Islam as a force of submission that threatens Western Christendom.* Key Quote: "We are literally an infiltration. We're people of the way. What you're describing is a war, a spiritual war."* Biblical Truth as a Defense* The Iron King emphasizes that their understanding comes from scripture, not personal intelligence, which protects them from cultural deceptions (e.g., COVID, George Floyd).* They highlight a global revival, with people turning to Jesus amid increasing evil.* Key Quote: "When you cling to truth, all the lies fade. When you cling to truth, you win the victory because this is a spiritual war."01:44:59 - 01:53:58* Supernatural Elements in Scripture* The hosts list bizarre biblical phenomena to underscore the reality of the supernatural: lion men, goblins, talking donkeys, time travel (e.g., Moses and Elijah at the Transfiguration), and miracles like Jesus walking on water or Elijah calling fire from heaven.* They argue that these events challenge naturalistic worldviews and suggest that myths (e.g., vampires, werewolves, dragons) have biblical origins in corrupted flesh or demonic activity.* Key Quote: "All of the weird stuff that you are told that is not real has an origin story somewhere."* Examples of Biblical Supernatural Events* Moses' glowing face, Jesus' transfiguration, Elijah's chariot of fire, Samson's feats, and Ezekiel's vision of dry bones.* The hosts assert that God's power continues today, despite skepticism from some theologians.* Key Quote: "Our God is in complete control, and he's doing supernatural things through spiritual power."01:53:58 - 02:01:14* Final Thoughts: Sin, Not Skin* Philosopher King's Final Thoughts* He emphasizes that despite the influence of the kingdom of darkness, Jesus holds all authority, and the kingdom of God is advancing.* He encourages listeners not to fear the "breakaway civilization," as it will face divine judgment.* Key Quote: "Don't fear the breakaway civilization. It will face judgment and it will not go well for them."* Iron King's Final Thoughts: Addressing Racial Narratives* The Iron King critiques the overemphasis on racial crime statistics (e.g., 53% of violent crimes by 13% of the population) and compares it to abortion, which kills over a million babies annually.* He highlights that 64% of abortion doctors are white and 74% are male, contrasting this with the lower percentage of black abortion doctors (6%).* He argues that evil is a sin problem, not a racial one, and calls for repentance across all demographics.* Key Quote: "The issue with evil is it's a sin problem, not a skin problem."* Statistics Breakdown* Violent crime deaths: ~46,000/year (half suicides), ~10,000 attributed to African Americans.* Abortion deaths: ~1,000,000/year, with 640,000 facilitated by white doctors.* Key Quote: "White dudes kill way more babies than black dudes from the hood in violent crimes."02:01:14 - 02:03:52* Verse of the Day and Prayer* Verse: Ephesians 3:20-21* "Now to him who is able to do above and beyond all that we ask or think according to the power that works in us, to him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations forever and ever. Amen."* Prayer* The Philosopher King prays for God to thwart Satan's plans, expand His kingdom, and glorify Himself.* He asks for believers to build on God's foundation with generosity, truth, and love, anticipating Christ's return.* Key Quote: "I pray that you would thwart the designs of the evil one and his agents, the old gods."02:03:52 - 02:04:19* Closing Remarks* The hosts wrap up, encouraging listeners to like, share, and subscribe to spread the podcast's message.* They reaffirm their service to Jesus, the King of Kings, and humorously reference Michelle Obama's recent gaffe.* Key Quote: "Your two kings serve the King of Kings, Christ Jesus."Key Themes* Supernatural Worldview: The hosts interpret global events through a biblical lens, emphasizing spiritual warfare and the reality of demonic influences.* Political Analysis: They critique both the successes (tariffs, border security) and failures (Epstein files, deportation pushback) of Trump's first 100 days.* Cultural Commentary: From the gorilla debate to racial crime statistics, they challenge mainstream narratives with humor and data.* Spiritual Call to Action: They urge listeners to cling to biblical truth, resist evil, and advance God's kingdom.Notable Quotes* "The Bible is always true."* "We are literally an infiltration.

Why are so many of our decisions based on what's best for Israel? How about what's best for the people of this country? America First, right? But before you start hating, we got something to say about that too!Show NotesOpening Segment (00:00:00 - 00:03:15)* Intro Theme: The hosts kick off with a provocative analogy comparing U.S. foreign policy to a man prioritizing his "side chick" over his family, hinting at Israel's influence.
