    Americans are currently besotted with protein. It's touted as being good for muscle growth, weight loss, skincare, mental acuity, longevity, and much else besides. It's sold to men, women, children, the elderly— you can even buy protein for your pets. The protein supplement market alone is worth $21 billion and growing—and extra protein is being added to coffee, cereal, pasta, beer, ice cream, and popcorn. But as frenzied as we currently are about protein, this is not the first protein boom—or even the second. Protein has been promoted as a charismatic, cure-all nutrient for nearly two centuries. In this episode, with the help of Samantha King and Gavin Weedon, the authors of Protein: The Making of a Nutritional Superstar, we look closely at all our protein crazes and their associated protein products—from beef tea to whey powder—and see what they can tell us about our current protein mania.  This episode was produced by Max Freedman. Decoder Ring is also produced by Willa Paskin, Katie Shepherd, and Evan Chung, our supervising producer. We had editing support from Josh Levin and fact-checking by Sophie Summergrad.

    What's the difference between feeling unsafe and being unsafe?According to Gallup, about half of Americans see crime as being extremely or very serious. And there are a lot of very real threats out there to people's safety, but there's also a lot of fearful rhetoric that's more unfounded. While immigrants are less likely to commit crimes than U.S.-born citizens, and trans people are unlikely to commit mass shootings, fear of these groups is being weaponized against them. So how can we disentangle being unsafe and feeling unsafe – and better protect ourselves and each other?

    You know things are bad when nobody is going to Las Vegas, but that is just the tip of the economic iceberg, and the over-taxed American consumers have tickets aboard the Titanic. Warren Buffett is selling equities and stockpiling cash as a hedge against uncertainty, as well as future bargain hunting after the economic collapse decimates Western society.  SNAP benefits have been intergenerational in many cases, with entire family trees built upon complete government dependence and free handouts. With yearly totals exceeding $100 billion in the United States for food programs, and more than nine million Americans on Section 8 government assistance, the Ponzi scheme seems to be coming to a conclusion, and they never end well. — Watch the video version on one of the Macroaggressions Channels: Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/Macroaggressions  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@MacroaggressionsPodcast — MACRO & Charlie Robinson Links Hypocrazy Audiobook: https://amzn.to/4aogwms The Octopus of Global Control Audiobook: https://amzn.to/3xu0rMm Website: www.Macroaggressions.io  Merch Store: https://macroaggressions.dashery.com/  Link Tree: https://linktr.ee/macroaggressionspodcast Activist Post Family Activist Post: www.ActivistPost.com  Natural Blaze: www.NaturalBlaze.com  Support Our Sponsors C60 Power: https://go.shopc60.com/PBGRT/KMKS9/ | Promo Code: MACRO Chemical Free Body: https://chemicalfreebody.com/macro/ | Promo Code: MACRO Wise Wolf Gold & Silver: https://macroaggressions.gold/ | (800) 426-1836 LegalShield: www.DontGetPushedAround.com  EMP Shield: www.EMPShield.com | Promo Code: MACRO Christian Yordanov's Health Program: www.LiveLongerFormula.com/macro  Above Phone: https://abovephone.com/macro/ Van Man: https://vanman.shop/?ref=MACRO | Promo Code: MACRO The Dollar Vigilante: https://dollarvigilante.spiffy.co/a/O3wCWenlXN/4471  Nesa's Hemp: www.NesasHemp.com | Promo Code: MACRO Augason Farms: https://augasonfarms.com/MACRO  —

    Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, Bryan breaks down the coming release of Jeffrey Epstein's files, explosive new evidence of his ties to intelligence services, and the political crossfire now engulfing both parties. He then turns to a sweeping set of immigration updates, covering violent attacks on federal officers, deportation operations in Charlotte and New York City, a federal judge blocking National Guard deployments, and a little known federal program that lets foreign graduates stay in the United States at lower wages than American college students. The show closes with encouraging updates on soybeans, beef supply, and groundbreaking Alzheimer's research. Epstein Files Set for Release: The House passed a bill instructing the Department of Justice to release its Epstein files, with President Trump expected to sign it shortly. Speaker Mike Johnson warned that the measure risks exposing victims, revealing child abuse images, and forcing declassification of intelligence records that may contain sensitive sources and methods. His comments suggest that U.S. intelligence agencies hold Epstein-related material, fueling long-standing questions about whether Epstein worked with the CIA, Mossad, or European services. Political Fallout for Both Parties: Republican Marjorie Taylor Greene reignited her feud with Trump after claiming he blocked earlier Epstein legislation, while Democrats are facing scrutiny over Virgin Islands Delegate Stacey Plaskett, who coordinated with Epstein during a 2019 House hearing. Newly released emails also show Epstein spent years trying to damage Trump after their personal split, which Bryan argues suggests Trump had no criminal exposure. Violence Against ICE and Border Patrol Surges: Vehicle rammings and attacks on federal immigration officers are up more than one thousand percent compared to last year. Bryan links the trend to incendiary rhetoric from national Democrats, including Senator Chris Murphy's statement that Americans must do "whatever is necessary" to stop Trump. Charlotte and New York Become Deportation Flashpoints: Operation Charlotte's Web caused twenty one thousand students to stay home this week, a sign of how many families are in the country unlawfully. Bryan explains how deportations could free up thousands of homes for working class Americans. In New York, ICE is preparing major operations after city leaders blocked federal agents from accessing Rikers Island, choosing to release violent offenders instead of handing them over for deportation. Judge Blocks National Guard in Memphis: A Tennessee judge ruled that neither President Trump nor the governor can deploy the National Guard to support anti crime operations in Memphis. Her decision contradicts data showing that federal surges dropped homicides, robberies, and shootings throughout the city. Bryan calls the ruling pure political activism that harms the very communities it claims to protect. Texas Redistricting and California Citizenship Rush: A federal court struck down Texas's new GOP drawn congressional map. In California, migrants rushed to obtain citizenship before a harder civics test took effect, a change Trump implemented to restore basic knowledge of American history and law. Foreign Nationals Driving Trucks and Spreading Risk: DHS arrested an Uzbek national living in Pennsylvania who obtained a commercial driver's license despite ties to jihadist recruitment. Bryan warns that thousands of foreign drivers, many without proper vetting, may be transporting hazardous materials across the country. OPT Program Exposes American Graduates: Senator Eric Schmitt highlighted a federal program called Optional Practical Training that allows foreign graduates to work for three years without payroll taxes, making them cheaper to hire than American college students. Bryan says the program, along with H-1B visas, is shutting young Americans out of the workforce. Good News on Food and Science: China appears to have resumed large soybean purchases from U.S. farmers, and dairy ranchers are increasing beef production with new cross bred calves. Researchers also discovered a muscle released molecule that protects mice from Alzheimer's even when genetic risk is present, pointing to potential therapies and reaffirming the power of exercise.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: Epstein files DOJ release, Speaker Mike Johnson intelligence concerns, Stacey Plaskett Epstein texts, ICE vehicle attacks Charlotte's Web, New York Rikers Island ICE block, Memphis National Guard ruling, Texas redistricting court decision, California citizenship test rush, Uzbek CDL jihad arrest, Optional Practical Training OPT reform, China soybean purchases, beef on dairy calves supply, Cathepsin B Alzheimer's study

    What happens when a 17-year-old's dive into the Chesapeake Bay changes everything—and the healing never comes? ⁠Watch the full conversation on YouTube⁠. Fifty-seven years later, Joni Eareckson Tada sits across from me with an answer that might undo everything you think you know about strength, suffering, and the strange mercy of God. In this conversation marking the 35th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act, we go where few dare: into the raw, daily reality of quadriplegia, chronic pain that would break most of us by breakfast, and a two-time battle with breast cancer. But this isn't inspiration porn. This is Joni—unflinching, funny, and fiercely honest about what it means when "I can do all things through Christ" meets 4 a.m. despair. We talk about the crushing loneliness of being the only wheelchair in a room full of chairs. The rage when well-meaning Christians promise healing that doesn't come. The particular exhaustion of advocating for your own existence. And why she tells God some mornings, "I have no strength for today. Can I borrow yours?" But we also discover something unexpected: how limitation becomes liberation. Why the disabled community might be the most honest place in America. And what happens when churches stop trying to "fix" people and start making room for them. Fair warning: Joni doesn't do platitudes. She'll tell you exactly what not to say to someone in chronic pain (spoiler: "everything happens for a reason" isn't it). She'll explain why she's terrified of a world that's editing out Down syndrome. And she'll make you rethink whether your church's "all are welcome" sign means anything if there's no ramp to the door. This is for anyone who's ever wondered where God is when the miracle doesn't come. For those caring for someone who's suffering and don't know what to say. For all of us who suspect our obsession with optimization and control might be making us miss the point entirely. Come for the practical wisdom. Stay for the kind of hope that only comes from someone who's been asking "How long, O Lord?" for nearly six decades—and still believes the answer matters.

    In part two of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, a panel of three federal judges on Tuesday blocked Texas from using a new congressional map drawn by Republicans in hopes of securing the party additional seats in the 2026 midterm elections, ruling 2-1 that the map in question appeared to constitute an illegal, race-based gerrymander. The matter now goes to the Supreme Court. Also President Trump has given new insight as to when Americans could expect to receive $2,000 dividend checks funded by the country's tariff revenue.

    Americans are currently besotted with protein. It's touted as being good for muscle growth, weight loss, skincare, mental acuity, longevity, and much else besides. It's sold to men, women, children, the elderly— you can even buy protein for your pets. The protein supplement market alone is worth $21 billion and growing—and extra protein is being added to coffee, cereal, pasta, beer, ice cream, and popcorn. But as frenzied as we currently are about protein, this is not the first protein boom—or even the second. Protein has been promoted as a charismatic, cure-all nutrient for nearly two centuries. In this episode, with the help of Samantha King and Gavin Weedon, the authors of Protein: The Making of a Nutritional Superstar, we look closely at all our protein crazes and their associated protein products—from beef tea to whey powder—and see what they can tell us about our current protein mania.  This episode was produced by Max Freedman.

    The right to keep and bear arms is one of the most sacred and unique features of the American system of government, allowing citizens to defend themselves not only against criminals, but against potential tyranny as well. Yet in spite of this fact, the corporate press is determined to misrepresent the statistics on gun violence in order to push for stricter gun control laws. John Lott, Senior Litigation Counsel NCLA, sits down with Matt Kibbe to tell the real truth about guns and gun owners, such as the fact that almost all mass shootings occur in gun-free zones, that armed citizens prevent thousands of crimes every year, and that gun registries disproportionately impact the poorest Americans. In almost all cases, the attempts to disarm Americans are built on emotion, not data.

    Two Experts Debate When You Should Take Social Security—But here's the TRUTH!

    The Power Of Zero Show

    Play Episode Listen Later Nov 19, 2025 10:45


    Today's episode revolves around one of the biggest financial debates among pre-retirees and retirees: When should you take Social Security? Host David McKnight touches upon the recent debate of two of the smartest voices in the field – Dr. Laurence "Larry" Kotlikoff and Dr. Derek Tharp – on this exact question. Dr. Tharp, out of the University of Southern Maine, notes that economists commonly recommend delaying social security benefits until age 70. Boston University's Dr. Kotlikoff agrees and explains that delaying can give you a 76% higher monthly benefit compared to taking it at age 62.  Since Social Security is inflation-adjusted and guaranteed for life, it acts as longevity insurance. Hence, Dr. Kotlikoff thinks that waiting doesn't only help you but your loved ones too. Dr. Tharp isn't convinced: he points out that only about 10% of workers actually wait until age 70 to claim benefits. Overall, he sees studies that recommend delaying rely on overly conservative assumptions – they assume that retirees earn returns similar to Treasury inflation-protected securities. With this line of thinking, if your portfolio is earning 5% real returns instead of 2%, then delaying your benefits might not look as attractive mathematically… Dr. Kotlikoff cites Menahem Yaari's 1965 paper, which suggests looking at delaying social security like buying insurance. It protects you from the catastrophic risk of living too long and running out of money.  The debate continues with Dr. Tharp talking about the sequence of return risk.  If the market drops early in retirement and you're forced to withdraw more from your investments to delay Social Security, you can permanently damage your "nest egg". Even though he acknowledges Dr. Tharp's point, Dr. Kotlikoff points out that most retirees have options, such as continuing to work longer, cutting spending, downsizing, or borrowing temporarily instead of taking benefits early. Plus, he adds, the people most affected by sequence of returns risk are, generally, wealthier households… Dr. Tharp concludes the debate by citing a study showing that retirees tend to spend about 80% of predictable income streams like Social Security or pensions, but only about 50% of portfolio income. He also brings up Bill Perkins' book Die With Zero into the conversation. Perkins believes that Americans often focus too much on lifespan and not enough on health span. Dr. Kotlikoff responds by stressing that some people underspend, while others overspend… and that's exactly why there's a need for good planning software. For David, both Dr. Kotlikoff and Dr. Tharp make valid points, and it all boils down to a key question: how long are you going to live? If you're likely to die at 63, then you should probably take Social Security at 62. If you're going to live to age 100, it makes sense to wait until you're 70. While there's no accurate way to determine that, there's currently a group of people who are in the business of figuring that out: life insurance actuaries. David shares two reasons why you may want to consider the additional benefits of life insurance, especially Indexed Universal Life (IUL).       Mentioned in this episode: David's new book, available now for pre-order: The Secret Order of Millionaires David's national bestselling book: The Guru Gap: How America's Financial Gurus Are Leading You Astray, and How to Get Back on Track Tax-Free Income for Life: A Step-by-Step Plan for a Secure Retirement by David McKnight DavidMcKnight.com DavidMcKnightBooks.com PowerOfZero.com (free video series) @mcknightandco on Twitter  @davidcmcknight on Instagram David McKnight on YouTube Get David's Tax-free Tool Kit at taxfreetoolkit.com

    Hi friends! Happy Tuesday!! Today I dive into one of my most requested episodes EVER... a story many of you have been patiently waiting for: the Zodiac Killer. For over 50 years, the Zodiac has terrified Americans. From isolated lover's lanes to busy city streets, this menacing, hooded murderer unleashed a terrifying spree, targeting young couples, a cab driver, and even threatening a busload of schoolchildren. His taunting letters, cryptic clues, unsolvable ciphers, and bone chilling phone calls kept the public in a frenzy. Even with DNA collected from the crime scenes and relentless investigations (some to this very day), the question remains... who was he? Despite countless theories and compelling arguments for several suspects, one thing is true... Zodiac seems to have gotten away with it. But how?! Why does this case still capture our attention? Why can't we solve it? Why did he do it?! Why why why?! So many questions. Dive in with me, share your theories, and let's explore the enduring mystery of the Zodiac Killer. Also, let me know who you want me to talk about next time.

    Yoghurt is the most diverse section of the dairy case: from Icelandic skyr to creamy Australian, and fruity French Yoplait to full-fat Greek. With something to suit every palate, plus a dose of microbes to support healthy digestion, yoghurt is a staple food in the US, hero of a million smoothies, berry bowls, and snack breaks every day. Which is why it's pretty weird that, until about 50 years ago, most Americans had no idea what it was. This episode, we've got the story of the microbial miracle (and ants?) that gave us yoghurt, as well as the secret connection between those heat-loving bacteria and the evolution of lactose tolerance. Plus, for most of history, yoghurt was wildly popular in large parts of the world—the Middle East, the Balkans, Caucasus, much of Asia, and the Indian subcontinent—and totally unknown elsewhere. Even the promise that yoghurt would cure old age, made by a Nobel prize-winning scientist, couldn't persuade Americans to eat it. So how did yoghurt finally capture the hearts of Americans?

    Today's Headlines: Trump did a full-speed-reverse on Sunday night, suddenly telling House Republicans to go ahead and vote for releasing the Epstein files—after spending months trying to stop exactly that. By Monday he was even claiming he'd sign a bill to release them, adding the very believable disclaimer: “but don't talk about it too much.” To change the subject, he floated a new promise: $2,000 “tariff dividend” checks for middle-income Americans next year—right around the midterms. Nothing says “stop asking about sexual misconduct” quite like a surprise government check. Meanwhile, FBI Director Kash Patel's country singer girlfriend has been assigned her own FBI security detail—yes, on your dime—which is unusual even by this administration's standards. Airports should be mostly back to normal this week now that FAA restrictions are lifted with the end of the shutdown. At FEMA, acting director David Richardson resigned after a rough seven months and a disastrously mishandled Texas flood response. Karen Evans, FEMA's current chief of staff, will take over. Markets took a nosedive, with the major indexes seeing their worst day since Liberation Day. The AI bubble might finally be bursting, especially after new filings showed Peter Thiel's fund and SoftBank both dumped their Nvidia stakes. Finally, a new mental health study found that social media creators are burning out at alarming rates—1 in 10 have had suicidal thoughts tied directly to their work, two-thirds say their self-worth drops when posts underperform, and nearly 70% say their income is totally unpredictable.

    As Thanksgiving approaches, many Americans are gathering to reflect on gratitude, family—and of course—food. It's the time of year when we may think about the so-called "First Thanksgiving" and imagine scenes of Pilgrims and Native peoples gathering in Massachusetts to share in the bounty of their fall harvests. But how much do we really know about the food systems and agricultural knowledge of Indigenous peoples of North America? In what ways were the Wampanoag people able to contribute to this harvest celebration—and what have we gotten wrong about their story? Michael Wise, Associate Professor of History at the University of North Texas and author of Native Foods: Agriculture, Indigeneity, and Settler Colonialism in American History, joins us to challenge four persistent myths about Indigenous food practices.

    When World War II ended 80 years ago, the fighting ended but global stability and peace did not emerge. Instead, a "Cold War" between the forces of capitalism and communism, represented by the U.S. and Soviet Union, dominated global politics and led to instability, interventions, wars, a militarized economy, a mass-surveillance National Security State, and so much more---and its legacy continued to this day as we look at Venezuela, Palestine, Iran, and other places across the globe.The U.S. posed the Cold War as a battle between "freedom" and Soviet domination, but that was always a ruse as the Americans held overwhelming dominance in all major military and economic matters. The U.S. had emerged from the war with global hegemony while the USSR had lose about 25 million people, a million farms and factories, and half its economy.So, 80 years later, it's important to examine and understand the role of the U.S. in using its power to create global dominance, disrupt 3rd World development, and destabilize countries across the globe. ----------------------------------

With CPI and jobs reports delayed, distorted, or potentially never released at all, the guys unpack what happens when policymakers, investors, and everyday Americans are flying blind. Add in whispers of shadow revisions, missing reports, and political spin, and suddenly “the data is fake” feels less like a meme and more like a macroeconomic red flag.➡️ But that's not all. The job market is flashing warnings, the housing market is handing out 50-year mortgages like party favors, and the government's “we'll fix it later” approach is aging about as well as a warm gas station sushi roll.

    In Part One, we followed the money — from ancient temples to the secret meeting at Jekyll Island, where a handful of bankers drafted a plan that would change the world. Now, in Part Two, The Conspiracy Podcast dives into what happened after that plan became law — and how it gave birth to one of the most powerful and most misunderstood institutions in history: the Federal Reserve.When the Federal Reserve Act passed in 1913, Americans had no idea how deeply it would shape their lives. A new hybrid system was born — part public, part private, run by twelve regional banks and a central board in Washington. It was designed to stop the boom-and-bust chaos that had plagued the country for decades. But to this day, people still ask the same question: Who really controls the Fed?The boys break down how this quiet institution evolved from a crisis-fighting experiment into a global financial empire. From the Great Depression to World War II, from the gold standard to the postwar boom, the Fed's fingerprints are everywhere — printing money, rescuing markets, and rewriting the rules of capitalism. They'll unpack how the Fed gained near-godlike power to move markets with a single announcement, and why every decision behind closed doors ripples through every dollar in your pocket.But this is The Conspiracy Podcast, and no story this big comes without shadows. Part Two dives into the darker theories — that the Fed is a private cartel of bankers pulling the strings behind the government; that the Rothschilds and Rockefellers still influence its policy; that the institution was designed not to stabilize America, but to enslave it in endless debt. From the myths of the Titanic murders to whispers about JFK's silver-backed money, the conspiracies surrounding the Fed are as old as the Fed itself.So, what's the truth behind the “Creature from Jekyll Island”? Is the Federal Reserve a necessary guardian of modern finance… or a hidden hand controlling the world economy?Sean, Jorge, and Eric crack open the vault and ask the question few dare to: who really runs the money machine?www.patreon.com/theconspiracypodcast

    "82% of all Americans are now saying they expect the brands they buy from to share their values."   Staying true to your values isn't just the right thing to do, it's one of the smartest ways to grow a business. Today's episode breaks down why conviction creates clarity, why clarity creates trust, and why trust is the new currency in a marketplace flooded with noise, doubt, and deception.  Kurt Luidhardt shares how his work with political campaigns led him to uncover something much bigger: millions of consumers actively looking to spend their money with brands that reflect their beliefs. Kurt explains why this shift matters for entrepreneurs, how conviction-driven marketing works, and why businesses that communicate their principles authentically attract more loyal, resilient customers. He also unpacks the modern crisis of trust and shows how shared values help people make faster, more confident buying decisions.  Kurt is the co-founder of a nationally recognized digital strategy firm and the creator of the Liberty Spenders framework. With decades of experience helping high-profile leaders and brands grow through principled messaging, Kurt now empowers business owners to align their marketing with their deepest convictions—and win because of it.  Expert action steps:  Remove the idols that distort your judgment—anything you place above God or your highest principles.  Build a business around solving a real, concrete problem that people urgently want fixed.  Protect your family and never let business consume the relationships that matter most.  Learn more & connect:  Download a free copy of Kurt's book, Liberty Spenders at https://libertyspenders.com/  Also in this episode:  The Great Patriot Protest and Boycott Book and the The Great Patriot BUY-cott Book By Nicky Billou & Wayne Allyn Root.
