THE ANACONDA STRATEGY AND THE NEO-ENGAGEMENT TRAP Colleagues James Fanell and Bradley Thayer. Fanell and Thayer discuss the "Joint Sword 2024 Alpha" exercises, describing them as an "Anaconda strategy" where the PRC practices suffocating Taiwan through blockades and missile strikes. Thayer argues that despite these overt threats, Washington remains captured by the "neo-engagement school," mistakenly believing that economic engagement can democratize China. They critique "elite capture" within US institutions, noting that the Bidenadministration has largely continued Obama-era policies rather than confronting the reality that the CCP is transforming international norms rather than being transformed by them.

Welcome to 2026, brother. In this foundational episode of the The Alpha Male Coach Podcast, Kevin opens a new chapter by returning to the core principles of awakening, alignment, and conscious leadership - while introducing a new format that will shape the year ahead.This episode sets the tone for what's coming next. As Kevin prepares to summit Mount Kilimanjaro, upcoming episodes will feature conversations with brothers who have completed the Tribe coach certification and graduated through the Academy. These men represent living examples of what happens when awakening stops being an abstract idea and becomes a lived, practical experience.At the heart of this episode is a reset to fundamentals. Kevin breaks down awakening not as a mystical or “woo” concept, but as a grounded, functional process for becoming more effective in life, relationships, and purpose. Awakening, as he frames it, is not about becoming something new - it's about remembering who you already are beneath conditioning.The episode introduces the Alpha/Beta framework and clarifies the Beta condition as a mental program: conditioned thought patterns shaped by upbringing, culture, biology, and repetition. This program filters reality, creating fear, doubt, and reactivity. The Alpha state, by contrast, is the observer - the one who watches the program, rewrites it when necessary, and restores proper cause-and-effect in life.Using the Model of Alignment, Kevin explains how thoughts create feelings, feelings drive actions, and actions produce results - and why separating thoughts from facts is the first and most essential step in reclaiming authority over your life. When the outer world stops being the cause of your inner world, you move from reaction to intention, from victimhood to authorship.From there, the episode expands into a deeper integration of three interwoven domains: the outer world (environment and circumstance), the inner world (thoughts and narratives), and the energetic world (your unseen blueprint). Kevin shows how mastery comes not from escaping these realms, but from integrating them - like piloting a ship with multiple control panels working in harmony.This framework is applied directly to real life, including dating and relationships. Kevin dismantles common misconceptions around attraction, confidence, and masculine presence, emphasizing that true connection begins with awareness of your own inner and energetic states - not manipulation, performance, or trying to read someone else's mind.The episode also introduces Human Design as a practical tool for understanding energetic mechanics beyond traditional psychology or astrology, while reinforcing a timeless truth: you will never fully know another person's inner world. Your work is to know your own.This is a return to the basics - but at a higher altitude. A call to clean the window, reclaim authorship, and step into 2026 grounded, awake, and aligned.Until next week, brother - elevate your Alpha.

In Episode 139 of SITREP, CannCon and Alpha Warrior return for their first show of 2026 following a brief hiatus, with the opening moments partially cut off before the broadcast fully begins. Once underway, the discussion centers on a Minneapolis ICE-involved shooting and the rapidly unfolding political and media fallout. The hosts analyze multiple video angles, argue the shooting was justified based on use-of-force standards, and break down how vehicles are legally treated as deadly weapons. From there, the episode expands into the broader response, including protest rhetoric, calls for National Guard deployment, statements from Minnesota officials, and comparisons to George Floyd-era unrest. CannCon and Alpha examine how color revolution tactics, NGO funding, political leverage, and media amplification intersect, while highlighting union pushback from rank-and-file police. The show closes with analysis of escalation risks, coordinated narrative pressure, and how this event fits into a wider pattern of destabilization efforts now facing resistance.

Join us as we dig deeper into last Sunday's sermon from Pastor Marcus Lane "Alpha & Omega" and hear from Amy Duncan and Nate Zuellig on Nate's original song, "Only One". Digging Deeper Questions: Where in your life is God inviting you to find contentment in the simple call to "listen & obey"? Are there areas of life that feel difficult or chaotic for you? How does the hope of Jesus give you peace in the midst of those things? What voices claiming, "If you have me, you have everything you need," seem the loudest right now? How does Jesus address these desires in a fuller and lasting way? Intro/Outro Song: "Only One" Nate Zuellig ULC Artist In Residence
In Episode 025 of DEFCON ZERQ, Alpha Warrior and Josh Reid open with discussion around internal conflict within the MAGA movement, addressing online pressure campaigns, attempts to silence dissent, and debates over loyalty versus accountability. The conversation emphasizes the role of public opinion, free speech, and citizen pressure as essential elements of American political power. The episode then moves into detailed discussion of Venezuela, focusing on the military operation that resulted in Nicolás Maduro's capture, the absence of U.S. casualties, and what the operation signals about the current posture of the Trump administration. Alpha and Josh expand the discussion to unrestricted warfare, fifth-generation warfare, and historical examples of power projection, arguing that modern conflict extends far beyond traditional battlefields. Additional segments cover China's global strategy, energy and supply chain leverage, the multipolar world framework, information warfare, and recent statements from U.S. leadership. The episode concludes with audience interaction, geopolitical analysis, and reflections on the responsibilities of citizens during periods of rapid political and military change.

For Navy veteran Shawn VanDiver, a 2021 call from Afghanistan sparked the creation of AfghanEvac, now one of the most successful refugee advocacy organizations. In this season premiere, VanDiver discusses his path from getting his GED to military service, his work with the Truman National Security Project, and how a single emergency became a mission supporting more than 195,000 Afghan refugees. He explains his community-first approach, why this work extends beyond Afghanistan, and concrete ways veterans can advocate for allies worldwide.Plus: Tango Alpha Lima hosts warn about predatory VA claim services, explore the Together We Served veteran network, and honor WWII veteran and Beetle Bailey cartoonist Mort Walker.LINKSThe War Horse: VA Warned These Companies They May Be Breaking the Law.

Episode 134 – The Metal Maniacs Podcast w/ Jay Ingersoll & Modd This week, we sit down with one of the most unique, prolific, and genuinely unstoppable forces in underground metal: Justin Lawnchair, the mastermind behind The Biscuit Merchant — Ann Arbor's proggy, death-tinged, genre-melting metal project. With 26 full albums (each 45–55 minutes) in the works, recorded entirely by Justin, and no generative AI used at any stage, this project is a testament to pure determination, creativity, and DIY musicianship.The Biscuit Merchant is all about “melting pot metal,” a blend of death metal, thrash, prog, folk, power metal, blues, groove, and whatever else Justin feels like throwing into the cauldron. Nothing is off the table. Nothing is predictable. And that's what makes it magic.We deep dive into the vision, the process, and the absolute madness of building a 26-album alphabetical saga known as Alpha — a project planned since 2009 and still evolving with every riff, rhythm, and solo.

David Nurse, high-performance coach to NBA All-Stars and Olympic gold medalists, discovered that elite performers don't hope for flow—they engineer it. The secret isn't motivation or talent. It's neuroscience. This isn't vague "find your flow" advice. This is the brain mapping research revealing that flow state occurs at a precise frequency—10 Hz in the Alpha zone—and the specific protocols to train your nervous system to access it on demand. David breaks down why legendary athletes like Kobe Bryant could enter "the zone" during championships, the paradoxical tension required for effortless focus, and the deep practice methodology that builds neural pathways for consistent peak performance. Discover: • The 10 Hz revelation—why flow happens at a measurable brainwave frequency (and how to train your brain to reach it) • Why the 10,000-hour rule is incomplete—the "deep practice" feedback loop that builds myelin and creates mastery • The "bumper bowling" principle—how removing fear of failure unlocks creative genius • Alex Honnold's "Free Solo" mindset—why elite performers visualize disasters, not just success • The TAP trigger for daily flow—Trust, Acceptance, and Presence as the gateway to effortless performance • The Flow Code formula—combining visualization, body scanning, and bilateral tapping to down-regulate your nervous system • Flow beyond athletics—how to access the zone for creative work, presentations, and high-stakes moments Here's what separates amateurs from world-class: amateurs wait for inspiration. Masters train their nervous systems to produce flow on command. If you've ever experienced a moment where everything clicked and wondered why you can't recreate it—this episode decodes the exact neural pathway to get back there.

In this conversation, JT and Vitaly delve into the significant topic of usury, exploring its implications on both economics and spirituality. They discuss the biblical perspective on money, the love of money as a root of evil, and the importance of helping the poor as a direct service to Christ. The dialogue highlights the challenges of modern capitalism, the desensitization to suffering, and the higher standards set by Christ regarding generosity and lending. Through their discussion, they emphasize the need for a return to community support and the moral responsibilities of Christians in today's economic landscape. In this conversation, the speakers delve into the concept of usury within Christianity, discussing its implications, historical context, and the divine judgment associated with it. They explore how usury affects society, leading to debt slavery and economic inflation, while emphasizing the importance of generosity and faith. The discussion also touches on the parable of the rich young ruler, illustrating the challenges of wealth in spiritual life, and concludes with a call to seek the kingdom of God over material possessions.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/jt-s-mix-tape--6579902/support.Please support our sponsor Modern Roots Life: https://modernrootslife.com/?bg_ref=rVWsBoOfcFJESUS SAID THERE WOULD BE HATERS Shirts: https://jtfollowsjc.com/product-category/mens-shirts/WOMEN'S SHIRTS: https://jtfollowsjc.com/product-category/womens-shirts/JT's Hats: https://jtfollowsjc.com/product-category/hats/

The episode moves through ongoing geopolitical developments, media framing, and public expectations, focusing on how belief, optimism, and patience are tested during periods of transition. Burning Bright and Alpha revisit recent events and reactions, questioning assumptions about timing, accountability, and outcomes while emphasizing the importance of restraint and discipline in both analysis and action. The conversation touches on psychological pressure, information overload, and the danger of premature conclusions, particularly when narratives are still unfolding. Throughout the episode, the hosts stress pattern recognition, historical context, and the need to remain grounded rather than emotionally reactive. The discussion closes with reflections on endurance, perspective, and why the early stages of any “golden age” are often the most uncomfortable and misunderstood.

Winner of the 2025 Dakar Bike Rally and one of our great mates Daniel "Chucky" Sanders joins us for a yarn to reflect on the massive year he had in 2025. Whilst taking us on tour for the super cross in Melbourne, Chucky joined us to take us through an incredible year in his career, including taking out his first Dakar and almost completing a perfect year in his championship super cross run. We touch on the grueling and rewarding parts of his epic win and also cover the recent activity that has been occurring at his home farm. Was great to finally get him on to tell us all about his win and hopefully he can smash it again this year, as he'll be racing in the 2026 Dakar as soon as this drops. Show the legend all the support and get behind to hopefully make it two in a row! Enjoy trendsetters.

As we wrap up our series Jesus Matter, Pastor Marcus preaches on the Alpha & Omega. Pastor Marcus teaches that we are called to listen and obey, so that we can find peace and live forever. Digging Deeper Questions: Where in your life is God inviting you to find contentment in the simple call to "listen & obey"? Are there areas of life that feel difficult or chaotic for you? How does the hope of Jesus give you peace in the midst of those things? What voices claiming, "If you have me, you have everything you need," seem the loudest right now? How does Jesus address these desires in a fuller and lasting way?

Reach Out: Please include your email and I will get back to you. Thanks!Revelation 22 John sees a river of the water of life flowing from the throne of God and the Lamb, clear as crystal. On either side of the river stands the tree of life, bearing twelve kinds of fruit and offering healing to the nations. There will be no more curse, and God's servants will see His face and reign with Him forever. The angel tells John that these words are trustworthy and true. Jesus declares that He is coming soon and bringing His reward and judgment with Him. He is the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last. The book ends with a final invitation to come and freely receive the water of life in the name of the coming Lord Jesus and to enjoy His unmatched grace. God offers us the water of life, flowing from His throne, freely and without cost. The tree of life brings healing, and we will see God's face and serve Him forever. This beautiful promise calls us to live with the enduring hope of reigning forever and ever. Jesus came in judgment against Rome in the past, and He is coming again; we must be ready. Our lives should reflect the light of Christ and the truth of His word. We are called to obey, to worship, and to invite others to come and receive this life. As we wait, let us live faithfully, trusting in the One who is coming again and joyfully knowing His grace is with us. Heavenly Father, we praise You for the promise of eternal life and the hope of seeing Your face. Thank You for the river of life and the healing that flows from Your throne. We long for the day when the last curse will be gone and everything will be made new. Help us to obey Your word and remain faithful as we wait for Christ, the Alpha and the Omega. Fill our hearts with worship, and may we invite others to receive Your gift of life. Come, Lord Jesus. Prepare us for Your final return with joy and hope. Thought Questions: Do you long for a life without the curse of sin or the danger of darkness? How important is heaven to you, and how are you showing it? Jesus came in judgment against Rome many centuries ago. Do you believe He is coming again one final time, and how does that affect you? When you read Scripture, do you hear Christ calling you? How will you come to Jesus, abandon sin, and experience His grace today?
Welcome to 2026, brothers.This episode is a return to the foundations. A reset. A reorientation to what this work has always been about.As we move into a new year, it's easy to get pulled toward advanced concepts, elevated language, and high-level spiritual ideas. But real mastery doesn't begin at the top. It begins at the beginning. And in this episode, we go back to the core principles of cognitive mastery, awakening, and the Alpha State.At the heart of this conversation is a simple but profound framework: the three worlds. The outer world, the inner world, and the energetic world.The outer world is the physical world. It's the world we all share. Bodies, money, relationships, environments, circumstances, results. It is neutral. It is dense. It is obvious. Science understands this world well because it is observable and measurable.The inner world is the mental world. Your thoughts. Your feelings. Your narratives. Your conditioning. This world is private. No one has access to it but you. And yet, this inner world is the cause of how you experience the outer world. Your thoughts generate feelings. Feelings drive actions. Actions create results. And those results reinforce the thoughts. This is the universal truth. This is the Model of Alignment.The energetic world is the most subtle of all. It's your aura. Your spiritual blueprint. The field you move through and leave behind as you interact with people, places, money, opportunity, and life itself. Most men have very little conscious access to this layer, not because it isn't real, but because it is quiet. Subtle. Working behind the scenes.In this episode, I explain how all three of these worlds are happening simultaneously. They are not separate. They are integrated into one unified human experience. And above all three is the Alpha State. The watcher. Consciousness itself. The unified awareness that sees all three worlds clearly without being trapped inside any of them.This is where awakening begins.Not by becoming something new. Not by self-improvement or self-judgment. But by remembering what you've always been.The first step in this process is kindergarten-level simple and lifelong profound: separating thoughts from facts. Over and over again. Until it becomes second nature. Until you can clearly see the difference between the neutral outer world and the stories you're running about it.This is why the Brotherhood exists. It is the entry point. The foundation. The place where men begin the awakening process by mastering the basics: buffering, relationships, money mindset, and the Model of Alignment. This is where you learn to see the program you've been running and consciously choose a new one.In this episode, I also introduce what's coming in 2026, including deeper work inside the Academy and my own Impossible Goal for the year, which I'll be updating throughout the podcast as it unfolds.This episode is an invitation.An invitation to remember who you are.An invitation to step into the Alpha State.An invitation to begin again—properly, deliberately, and consciously.Welcome to 2026, brothers.Elevate your Alpha.
As a new year unfolds and the calendar turns, uncertainty can stir anxiety—but Scripture reminds us that while seasons change, God remains the same. Rooted in Psalm 102:25–27, this devotional centers our hearts on the unchanging nature of God, offering peace and confidence when the future feels unknown and reminding us that our hope is secure in the One who never shifts or fades. Highlights Change is a natural part of life, but God’s character remains constant. Scripture anchors us when anxiety about the future begins to rise. God is eternal—Creator, Sustainer, and faithful through every season. Jesus Christ confirms God’s unchanging promises and redemptive plan. Trust grows when we release control and rest in God’s sovereignty. God invites us to enter a new year with peace, not fear, rooted in His faithfulness. Our confidence isn’t in what’s ahead, but in Who goes before us. Do you want to listen ad-free?

Full Transcript Below: When the Calendar Changes but God Remains By: Laura Bailey Bible Reading:“In the beginning you laid the foundations of the earth, and the heavens are the work of your hands. They will perish, but you remain; they will all wear out like a garment. Like clothing you will change them, and they will be discarded. But you remain the same, and your years will never end.” - Psalm 102:25-27 NIVI found that people have mixed feelings about change. There are those like me who crave change and are easily bored by routine and regimentation. Conversely, perhaps you are more like my husband, who finds comfort in consistency. The reality is that life offers us both. Change is inevitable and necessary, and finding contentment in routine is equally important. Yes, as humans, we will experience change throughout our lives. But here’s the good news: there’s one thing that never changes - our God! Today, if you are feeling anxious about the changing of the calendar, rest in the truth that our God is the same yesterday, today, and forever. When feelings of worry and dread of the unknown are tempted to steal your joy and rob your peace, take time to recite these prayers, as you rest in our unchanging God! “In the beginning you laid the foundations of the earth, and the heavens are the work of your hands. They will perish, but you remain; they will all wear out like a garment. Like clothing you will change them, and they will be discarded. But you remain the same, and your years will never end.” - Psalm 102:25-27 NIVHeavenly Father, I come before as I enter a new year filled with uncertainty. My heart is anxious, my thoughts consumed with the “what-ifs.” Lord, help my heavy heart rest in the knowledge that You are the Creator, You’ve always existed, and You remain the same for all eternity. You spoke the creation into existence. Your plan for redemption for Your children has remained constant through the ages. When fear of the unknown creeps in, I ask you to silence those thoughts and grant me peace that only You can provide. Thank you. Though I am fickle, Lord, You are always faithful in Jesus' Name, Amen.Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever. - Hebrews 13:8Heavenly Father, thank you for the gift of Jesus Christ. We see in Jesus that You keep Your promises. In the garden, You promised to make a way for Your children to be reconciled to You, to be saved and redeemed for their sins. Jesus was there in the beginning, and He has always been a part of Your plan. Help me to trust in Your purpose. Lord, You know my thoughts, my heart that quickly beats because I am anxious about tomorrow. Yet, You are sovereign, in total control, and are working everything for my good and Your glory. Calm my anxiety, and help me to release control, the need to know every detail over to You. This year, Lord, I ask that I approach each day worry-free, because I know You are unchanging, and You are Faithful, and I can put my trust in You. In Jesus'Name ' Name, Amen. For I the LORD do not change; therefore you, O children of Jacob, are not consumed. - Malachi 3:6 ESV Heavenly Father, though people are inconsistent and fickle, You are not. You are immutable, faithful, and steadfast. Your very nature is unchanging. I can put my trust in You because You are eternally trustworthy. Please guide my decisions so that I may live in a way that is holy and pleasing to you. Transform my thoughts and desires to align with Your will. I give this year to you, the highs and lows, the good and bad days, I surrender and submit to You. You are a God, who sees and cares about your children. While I am not able to see the future, I can trust in the One who is the Alpha and Omega — the beginning and the end. In Jesus’ Name, Amen. Praying for you today, friend, as you navigate the changing of the calendar. May this new year bring anticipation and excitement, not dread and anxiousness, as you trust our unchanging God.Intersecting Faith & Life:How do you feel about change? Take time today to write down one of the verses above on a card. Place the card somewhere you can easily see it when you feel anxious about the unknown.Further Reading: A Prayer for God's Guidance as We Travel New PathsPsalm 102 Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.

Why do you think that dog is the alpha? In this first episode of season 4, Tara and Laura break down the difference between being an alpha and being a protector. They debunk the common myths associated with behaviors that make an “alpha” in a pack and explain how most of the time the dog owners believe is in that role is incorrect. They also explain why this term of needing to be the “alpha” of the pack is unnecessary and not what we should strive to be for our dogs.Sponsored by K9 WorkingmindThis episode was edited and mastered by The WillaWoman.
