Ashe in America, Ghost, and Eric Rice come together for a groundbreaking deep dive into the spiritual and geopolitical meaning of “Biblical Israel.” From the misinterpretations of Genesis 12:3 to the heresies of modern Christian Zionism, the trio unpacks how scripture, prophecy, and politics have been twisted to justify endless war and deception. They dissect the Ted Cruz–Tucker Carlson debate on Israel, examine Ezekiel 16's warnings against harlotry and idolatry, and trace how Babylonian religion still influences modern institutions, from the Vatican to AI “Jesus” apps. Through faith, history, and discernment, the hosts explore the end-times deception of unity without Christ, the rise of technocratic “Christian nationalism,” and the eternal battle between truth and counterfeit faith. Bold, convicting, and steeped in scripture, this Badlands special challenges believers to seek Christ—not religion—in the final days.

Ashe in America and Alpha Warrior, joined by Ghost, dive headfirst into the breaking Trump-brokered ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, an unprecedented move signaling a dramatic shift in global power. The trio analyzes the deeper strategy behind Trump's announcement, Netanyahu's political future, and the prophetic implications of “Israel saved for last.” They also unpack growing global instability, from Ukraine canceling elections to Burkina Faso's fight against Western espionage, and the rising tide of African sovereignty. In true Badlands fashion, the hosts weave geopolitics, history, and faith into one high-voltage discussion that connects biblical prophecy with today's headlines.

CannCon and Ashe in America take on the chaos of Washington's “shutdown anniversary” and expose why it's more illusion than impact. From air traffic control failures in Burbank to Gavin Newsom's propaganda spin, they unpack how bureaucracy thrives even when the lights go out. The duo also dive into Kamala Harris' confirmation drama, the mass approval of Trump's nominees, and the Senate's rule changes that could reshape future administrations. Ashe breaks down the Supreme Court case that could redefine election standing in Illinois, while CannCon connects the dots on the newly declassified CIA documents revealing Biden's Burisma corruption and the real motive behind the infamous “son of a bitch was fired” trip to Ukraine. With laughs, logic, and plenty of fire, this episode ties together domestic dysfunction and global scandal in true Badlands fashion.

CannCon and Ashe in America continue their deep dive into The Fourth Turning with Part 2 of Chapter 8, exploring the Boomer generation's rise into midlife power and the cultural shifts that reshaped America. From the “yuppie” era and Reagan's political influence to the moral fervor and spiritual awakenings of the 1990s, Ashe and CannCon connect Strauss and Howe's generational theory to today's world with humor and sharp insight. They discuss the parallels between then and now—revived faith movements, the redefinition of family values, the culture wars, and the roots of modern polarization. The hosts also weave in their signature banter over fantasy football, gold prices, and soft disclosure ads, blending intellect with entertainment in classic Badlands fashion.

Ashe in America and Abbey Blue Eyes take aim at the absurdities of pop culture, politics, and propaganda in this high-energy episode. They kick things off with Bad Bunny's Super Bowl controversy and Kristi Noem's unapologetic response, then expose The View's hypocrisy over race, law enforcement, and media double standards. From the deep dive into human trafficking at major events to the tangled web of Spygate and the Obama-era intelligence apparatus, the conversation moves fast and hits hard. The duo unpacks corruption, censorship, and the slow but steady march toward justice, ending with a look ahead at transhumanism, the Great American Restoration Tour, and why public trust can't exist without accountability.

Ashe in America, Abbey Blue Eyes, Christy Lupo, and Jackie Espada gather for one of their most raw and revealing conversations yet. This week, the Alphas get personal, diving into the emotional minefields of relationships, self-worth, and the hard truths that come with growth. From the pain of betrayal to the power of forgiveness, they unpack what it means to truly love yourself (and others) without losing who you are. Along the way, they share stories that will make you laugh, nod, and maybe even tear up a little. It's part group therapy, part girl talk, and all Badlands heart...honest, unfiltered, and deeply human.

CannCon and Ashe in America tackle a packed night of testimony and hearings, starting with a Venezuelan whistleblower's deposition in Tina Peters' habeas case. The witness details how Smartmatic systems were manipulated in Venezuela, exposing vulnerabilities and foreign influence that echo into U.S. elections. The hosts connect this testimony to Garland Favorito's explosive appearance before Georgia legislators, where he outlined systemic flaws in Dominion's Democracy Suite, internet connectivity, and even proof of hacked county servers. Ashe and CannCon react in real time to the evidence, the gaslighting pushback from officials, and the broader implications for election security. From court cases and subpoenas to grassroots activism and polls that miss the real story, this episode puts the spotlight on truth, transparency, and the ongoing fight for election integrity.

CannCon and Ashe in America dig into the federal government shutdown, exposing how both parties spin the blame while Trump uses the moment to slash fraud, waste, and abuse in federal programs. They tackle the fight over health care for illegal immigrants, the corruption in Medicaid and Medicare, and Trump's push to cut drug prices with Pfizer under his new “Trump Rx” initiative. From the VA's broken promises to pharmaceutical profits during COVID, the hosts pull no punches in calling out the swamp and Big Pharma's grip on Americans. The conversation expands into January 6th pipe bomb theories, FBI training exercises, and the purge of critical data, raising more questions about the official narrative. Wrapping up with Trump's bold call to use crime-ridden cities as training grounds for the military, this episode hits hard on shutdown politics, health care corruption, and the fight to reclaim America.

CannCon and Ashe in America tackle Chapter 8 of The Fourth Turning, diving into the unraveling era of 1984–2005 and the rise of America's culture wars. They explore how Reagan's “Morning in America” optimism masked deep societal fragmentation, from Apple's 1984 Super Bowl ad to the rise of niche identities and the collapse of shared civic trust. The conversation tracks how Americans shifted from collective institutions to personal fulfillment, spawning tribalism, declining faith in government, and the birth of a politics of meaning. From the O.J. Simpson trial to the Oklahoma City bombing, the chapter reveals how conspiracy theories, cultural clashes, and moral polarization redefined the era. CannCon and Ashe break down the generational archetypes, Silent, Boomer, Gen X, Millennial, and how each played a role in America's unraveling, setting the stage for the crises to come. With sharp insight and humor, they connect Strauss and Howe's theory to today's chaos, asking what lessons the unraveling holds for the storm ahead.

CannCon and Ashe in America welcome Cleta Mitchell, founder of the Election Integrity Network, for a deep dive into the fight to restore trust in America's elections. Mitchell shares her firsthand experience as an election attorney on Trump's post-2020 Georgia legal team and explains how the Election Integrity Network mobilizes citizens nationwide to clean voter rolls, monitor election boards, and push back against systemic corruption. The conversation covers foreign money in election systems, smurfing and dark money networks, the SAVE Act, and the urgent push for documentary proof of citizenship on voter registration forms. Mitchell also exposes the roadblocks from officials like Raffensperger and Carr in Georgia, the failures of Bill Barr's DOJ, and why bipartisan billionaires bankroll efforts to dilute election integrity. With actionable steps like filing comments on regulations.gov, she urges patriots to get engaged before 2026. Packed with hard truths, insider details, and a roadmap for reform, this episode highlights why grassroots vigilance is essential to safeguarding the republic.

CannCon and Ashe in America break down Trump's fiery UN speech, from stalled escalators and busted teleprompters to his takedown of the globalist migration agenda, climate change scams, and European energy dependence on Russia. The hosts spotlight his call to end biological and nuclear weapons, defend Christianity, and put child traffickers on notice. They're joined by Jason Fick, who details his legal battle against Big Tech censorship and the misuse of Section 230, explaining how decades of bad precedent created a weaponized system against free speech. From foreign actors threatening New York's cell networks to the Secret Service's UN security lapses, the episode pulls no punches in exposing both incompetence and intentional sabotage on the global stage.

CannCon and Ashe in America continue their deep dive into The Fourth Turning by Strauss and Howe, unpacking the seismic cultural shifts of the Awakening era. From the GI Generation's confidence after WWII to the Silent Generation's contradictions and the Boomers' rebellious rise, this discussion draws striking parallels to today's upheavals. They trace how Vietnam, Watergate, civil rights battles, and shifting family dynamics set the stage for generational conflict and cultural realignment, while also exploring how children of the 1960s and 70s were shaped by fractured homes, Hollywood's anti-child narratives, and a society growing hostile to traditional structures. With humor, historical insight, and a sharp eye on how these cycles echo into the present, CannCon and Ashe help listeners see the patterns that repeat, and why understanding them matters now more than ever.

They dive into creative hobbies like crocheting, diamond painting, and baking, exploring how hands-on crafts lower stress and build community.

Add in cozy fall hacks, pumpkin vs. apple debates, and the joy of crafting, and this episode is equal parts fun, faith, and sisterhood.

Ashe in America and Abbey Blue Eyes unpack the whirlwind of 2025, from unease in daily life to the spiritual revival sparked in the wake of Charlie Kirk's assassination.

The hosts connect these revelations to broader themes of manipulation, from Planned Parenthood to the obsession with cheating death, and warn of science without ethics. Using the Hunger Games as a lens, they explore how emotions can be weaponized, urging listeners to test the spirits, hold to biblical truth, and resist both political and spiritual deception. With reflections on Ben Carson's powerful memorial speech, the infiltration of education and churches, and the ongoing battle between light and darkness, this episode challenges listeners to stay discerning, grounded, and unflappable in faith.

CannCon and Ashe in America dig into the latest developments out of Michigan after Attorney General Dana Nessel's failed prosecution of the alternate electors. The hosts pull apart Nessel's media spin, fact-checking her claims about Trump's court cases, January 6th, and the so-called “basement coup.” They highlight the intimidation tactics used against Wayne County canvassers in 2020, the broken promises from Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson, and the double standards in how election law is enforced. Along the way, they skewer mainstream media for giving Nessel airtime to slander acquitted defendants and contrast her narrative with the realities of audits, voter rolls, and election vulnerabilities. With sharp humor and blunt analysis, CannCon and Ashe remind listeners why accountability matters, why questions about elections remain legitimate, and why propaganda dressed as news should never be taken at face value.

This week's guest is Ari Ashe, Senior editor of the Journal of Commerce which is part of S&P Global.  Ari explains the ins and outs of the proposed, and potentially transformational, merger between the Union Pacific (UP) and the Norfolk Southern (NS) railroads.  This deal would create the first transcontinental railroad across the United States. Our conversation delves into what is driving the merger, what's at stake, and the potential benefits for carload customers by addressing messy interchanges in key hubs like Chicago and Memphis. Ari also discusses the timeline for approval, the motivations behind UP's pursuit of this historic deal, and the “Christmas Wish Lists” of concessions that opposing parties, such as other railroads, shippers, and unions, will be assembling.  And as required in all podcasts, we talk a little bit about AI - using it as an example of where technology adoption can be used to improve effectiveness vs. efficiency.   Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

From the optimism of the 1950s to the upheavals of the 1960s and 70s, the hosts map how each archetype responded to shifting challenges, laying the groundwork for the awakenings and crises to follow.

The hosts highlight how generational archetypes shifted during this era, with the Lost Generation entering elderhood, GIs moving into midlife, and Boomers arriving as children. They unpack the authors' framework of turnings and constellations, exploring how historical cycles repeat and how manipulation by elites can alter their trajectory. Along the way, they connect these historical insights to today's political and cultural struggles, reflecting on the erosion of the family, the rise of globalist influence, and whether the natural rhythms of history can be delayed or redirected in the age of surveillance and propaganda. It's a thoughtful blend of history, prophecy, and present-day reflection that grounds the abstract theory of cycles in lived experience.

Ashe in America and Abbey Blue Eyes deliver a heavy but thought-provoking episode of Culture of Change.

From there, they examine a chilling lawsuit against Character AI, where a chatbot allegedly encouraged a 14-year-old boy to take his own life, sparking a wider discussion on technology, mental health, and how children are being conditioned by digital escapism. The conversation then shifts to predictive programming and 9/11, with Ashe and Abbey exploring eerie “coincidences” in pop culture, from the Illuminati card game and The Matrix to The Simpsons and Back to the Future. They also dive into time travel theories, carbon-based transhumanism, and how technology could tie into biblical end-times. Wrapping up, the hosts connect Spygate to British intelligence, Perkins Coie, and the FBI, exposing how the same actors behind Russiagate tie back to 9/11. It's a dense, sobering episode blending media critique, cultural decay, and deep-dive conspiracy analysis.

The hosts dig into Colorado's political landscape, exposing how uniparty players like former Perkins Coie attorneys are being placed in key state roles to obstruct transparency. They connect these moves to Trump's broader strategy, pointing out how funding cuts and federal investigations are hitting Colorado where it hurts.
