A whole crew of Badlands Media hosts piles into this chaotic, hilarious, deeply human episode of OnlyLands as they recover from GART weekend and attempt—mostly unsuccessfully—to stay on track. What begins as a simple debrief morphs into a free-flowing ride of sleep deprivation, family stories, behind-the-scenes chaos, and the kind of unfiltered camaraderie that only happens after days of travel and zero rest. The group shares favorite GART moments, awkward interactions, heartfelt connections, and brutally honest reflections on what it's like to meet the Badlands community in person. From Ghost's feral banter to CannCon's exhaustion, from Ashe trying to steer the ship to spontaneous tangents about kids, weather, colds, energy drinks, and oddball life advice, this is Badlands at its most authentic. There's warmth, laughter, oversharing, and the unmistakable chemistry of hosts who genuinely love each other and their audience… even when everyone is half-dead from travel and talking over one another. A messy, memorable, wildly entertaining episode that captures the heart of the Badlands family.

CannCon and Ashe in America break down Ed Martin's explosive comprehensive pardon memo...a document they call one of the most important filings since the 2020 election. They walk through Martin's sweeping legal argument detailing years of election-law violations, unconstitutional rule changes, mass censorship, mail-in ballot failures, fraudulent registrations, chain-of-custody breaches, and the refusal of courts to hear evidence. The hosts trace how contingent electors operated within constitutional authority, how historical precedent supports their actions, and why prosecutions in Michigan, Georgia, Nevada, and Arizona are collapsing. They highlight Brad Raffensperger's revealing 2020 interview, the censorship regime driven by CISA and EIP, and the way lawfare was weaponized against attorneys, electors, whistleblowers, and everyday citizens. Packed with legal analysis, historical context, and fiery commentary, this episode lays out the full scope of election misconduct, and why accountability is finally coming into focus.

Delivered by Christine Gunawan from the Parish of Saint Joseph Cathedral in the Archdiocese of Pontianak and Yurika Gunawan from the Parish of Sacred Heart of Jesus Cathedral in the Archdiocese of Makassar, Indonesia. Malachi 4: 19-20a; Rs psalm 98: 5-6.7-8.9a; 2 Thessalonians 3: 7-12; Luke 21: 5-19.THE CALLING TO ENDURE The title for ourmeditation today is: The Calling to Endure. There was a big fight going on in afamily. It started from a misunderstanding of husband and wife. Because eachdid not accept the other, one threatened the other to get out of the house. Thehusband prepared to get out of the house. But at the same time, the wife wasalso preparing to leave. All three children cried and tried their best to stoptheir parents' try to leave the house. They put all effort to prevent thisfrightening act they did not want to happen. The eldest son accompanied by histwo younger siblings stood at the door to prevent the father or mother fromleaving the house. Because of the strongefforts of the three children, the parents put off their desire to get out ofthe house. This happening in this family actually illustrates two importantthings that determine the fate of the family: escape from problems or endure toface and overcome them. The choice made indicates one's human quality and spiritualstrength. There are so manyproblems and difficulties we face in this life. Today's Gospel illustrates anumber of big, complicated and very frightening problems. These two choicesalways challenge us to choose which is the best. For the best option, JesusChrist commands us to choose to endure. He gives us a perfect example, namelyHimself who endured to the end of His life, during the moment on the cross asHe cried out before his last breath: "It's finished". The Lord Jesus indeedasks us to endure whatever the circumstances at any time. Our goal to endure isthat we may obtain salvation in the hands of God. There are several supporting elementsthat help us to endure. First is the promise of the coming of the Lord on theday according to God's will. If there is promise as the truth to hold on, thefact that the promise is made for us by the Lord himself as stated by the thebook of the Prophet Malachi, people certainly have reason to stay and toendure. Second, according to the responsorial psalms of today, the realizationof the promise is very important. Everyone is certain about his or her destiny,which is determined by the final judgment to decide on every human person'sworthiness  to enter the kingdom ofheaven. Third is the abilityto use the time during the periode of endurance. This ability refers to theattitudes a calmness, patience, and keep working to solve the problems we faceon earth. Maybe the problem is about many people around us who are jobless,insufficiency of people's basic needs and other real problems that humans faceat the present moment. In this period of endurance, we must be able to work forthe salvation of all souls that the Lord Jesus Christ has promised us and hasmandated us to do. To endure in emptiness is the same as foolishness. Let's pray. In the name of the Father... O heavenly Father, may this Sunday celebration fill us with ability andenthusiasm to endure in this life. Glory to the Father and to the Son and tothe Holy Spirit ... In the name of the Father...

CannCon and Ashe in America jump straight into chaos as the morning starts with broken music cues, Mark Elias memes, and the never-ending Epstein narrative flooding the news cycle. They break down Christina Bobb's whistleblower complaint, the suspicious players surrounding the FBI, and the escalating oddities in the House Oversight Committee's selective Epstein leaks. Digging deeper, they expose media gaslighting, the weaponization of “Epstein files,” and why the narrative is designed to distract from Democrats' shutdown disaster. The hosts then wade through collapsing COVID science, retracted studies, ivermectin censorship, and Biden-era pharmaceutical corruption. In classic Badlands fashion, the conversation swerves from mortgage reforms and portable loans to Chinese student visas, H1B fights, and the absurd claim that Trump is “losing MAGA.” CannCon and Ashe slice through NBC propaganda, argue over Latin vs. French pronunciations, and end with a hilariously unhinged aerobics-style protest outside an ice arena.

In this episode of The Choice, Ashe in America and Ghost dive deep into Episode 4 of The Chosen, exploring the pivotal moment when Simon Peter hits rock bottom, morally, spiritually, and financially, only to encounter Jesus in a way that changes everything. The hosts unpack themes of faith, pride, desperation, and redemption through Simon's struggle to fix his problems by his own hand, contrasting his self-reliance with Eden's steadfast faith and Jesus' divine timing. They draw powerful parallels between biblical archetypes and modern life, analyzing Simon's journey as a portrait of every person who must surrender control before experiencing true transformation. From John the Baptizer's radical defiance of religious authority to Nicodemus' curiosity about miracles, Ashe and Ghost illuminate how faith challenges the rational mind and redefines power itself. A moving, cinematic reflection on obedience, grace, and the moment when belief becomes action.

Get stuck in – Michael Bourgeois, CWT How do standards get written in ways that working water treaters can actually meet? In this conversation, AWT Past President, current Related Trade Organization (RTO) Committee Chair, and Chemco Products Company Operations Manager, Michael Bourgeois CWT, explains how AWT's liaisons collaborate with peer organizations, so guidance reflects field reality—operations, risk, and achievable compliance.  From Field Bags to Board Rooms: Why RTOs Matter  Bourgeois outlines the purpose of AWT's RTO structure: volunteer liaisons track and influence work at groups whose missions overlap with industrial water—CTI, ABMA, ASHRAE, AWWA, ASHE, and others. The aim is simple and practical: make sure member voices are heard so guidance advances health outcomes (e.g., Legionella control) and day-to-day feasibility for service providers and suppliers.  Turning Reaction into Proaction  Historically, the industry learned about new rules after they landed. Bourgeois details how AWT is shifting to co-authoring cooling-water guidelines with CTI and re-engaging ABMA, so boiler-water limits and methods reflect current technologies and operations. The model: clarify shared goals, contribute content expertise, and formalize collaboration so members get usable documents at member pricing.  Concrete Moves: Boiler Water, Healthcare, and More  Examples include AWT's role on ABMA's Boiler Expo steering committee (with a focused water-treatment training block) and early conversations with ASHE on pathogen control in building and healthcare water systems. He describes how liaisons feed updates into a formal committee cadence, so the AWT Board and members see progress—not just headlines.  When working professionals help write the playbook, outcomes improve clients, operators, and public health—and members stop "reacting" to standards they had no hand in shaping.  Listen to the full conversation above.

In this gripping continuation of The Fourth Turning, CannCon and Ashe in America dive into Chapter 10 of Strauss and Howe's prophetic masterpiece, exploring how much of their “future history” has already come to pass. From 9/11 to COVID, government shutdowns, financial collapse, and even the concept of “polycrisis,” the hosts trace how the authors seemingly predicted America's unraveling in eerie detail. They dissect the generational archetypes...Boomers, Gen X, Millennials - and how each plays a role in the coming civic rebirth or collapse. Between laughs about “cougars,” Taco Bell runs, and the Great American Restoration Tour, Ashe and CannCon examine whether the crisis climax has already begun and what kind of America might emerge on the other side. Equal parts historical reflection and philosophical debate, this episode merges humor, scholarship, and faith in the way only Badlands Book Club can.

Mark Pougatch and Paul Hayward bring you the story of Althea Gibson - don't worry if you've never heard of her, few have! Arthur Ashe is a name immediately recognisable to every tennis fan - and most sports fans.He was the first Black man to win the US Open, the Australian Open and Wimbledon - and the largest tennis stadium in the world, the US Open main court, is named after him.But he wasn't the first Black player to win a Grand Slam. That honour went to New Yorker Althea Gibson, who won the French open in 1956 - a whole decade before Ashe. She also won both the US Open and Wimbledon in 1957 and in 1958. So why isn't Althea Gibson as well known as Arthur Ashe? Why doesn't she have her name up in lights like his? What is her story?

Ashe in America and Abbey Blue Eyes tackle the explosive developments surrounding the Arctic Frost investigation and the indictment of James Comey. The duo breaks down the newly uncovered evidence showing Comey's approval of FBI leaks, his ties to Hillary Clinton's campaign, and what these revelations mean for the broader Russiagate conspiracy. They also examine John Brennan's viral confrontation with intelligence insider Thomas Speciale, unpacking the body language, the deflection, and the implications for the intelligence community. From the FBI's secret “burn bag” discoveries to Flynn's firsthand account of the 2016 deception, Ashe and Abbey connect the dots between the conspirators, Comey, Brennan, Clapper, and beyonda, nd how their actions shaped years of political warfare. The discussion expands to modern weaponization of government, surveillance, and election integrity, before teasing the upcoming GART panels and a hilarious Lily Pad cam cameo. Equal parts fiery analysis and humor, this episode exposes the machinery behind the cover-ups and demands real accountability.

CannCon and Ashe in America kick off Badlands Daily with early-morning banter about the eerie symbolism of the Denver Airport before diving into a packed show covering politics, corruption, and cosmic irony. They announce updates for the upcoming Great American Restoration Tour, welcome new sponsors like Kitchen and Flooring Direct and Benson Honey, and then tear into the day's big headlines: the death of Dick Cheney (“Good riddance”), election-day apathy amid unfix elections, and fresh DOJ pressure on Fulton County to finally release the 2020 ballots. Ashe dissects the meaning of the DOJ's new tone while CannCon lays out why this letter could be the start of accountability. From public-sector grift in California to SNAP fraud, Pelosi's rumored retirement, and the latest Comey revelations, the pair mix analysis and outrage with humor and hope. They wrap with sharp commentary on media manipulation, election integrity, and why America's “leaders” can't manage a budget, but patriots can still change the world one conversation at a time.

Ashe in America, Abbey Blue Eyes, Christy Lupo, and Jackie Espada welcome Michelle from Tamarac Garden for a lively and enlightening conversation about natural health, hormones, and holistic living, with plenty of laughs along the way. The ladies debut the “Lily Pad Cam,” share their adventures making elderberry syrup (and turning it into a cocktail), and dive into Michelle's wisdom on perimenopause, herbal remedies, and how modern toxins affect women's health. Between beauty hacks, FUPA photo poses, and hilarious off-topic detours, the crew blends humor, heart, and empowerment in equal measure. From homemade tinctures to the truth about Bath & Body Works candles, this episode is a cozy mix of sisterhood and self-care, Badlands style.

In this Halloween edition of Why We Vote, CannCon and Ashe in America welcome special guest Jessica Pollema, president of South Dakota Canvassing, for one of the most explosive deep dives into election infrastructure yet. Jessica breaks down how a small South Dakota tech company called BPro evolved into NO Inc., which later became Liberty Vote, now tied to Dominion Voting. She reveals how this system, built with state and federal funds, quietly spread to other states through sole-source contracts, questionable “free” source code deals, and Microsoft Azure cloud integration. The discussion uncovers a tangled web of cyber vulnerabilities, legal cover-ups, and political collusion, from rigged voter roll access to ERIC connectivity. Ashe and CannCon dig into how local citizens fought back through legislation and hand-count petitions, only to face coordinated lawfare from establishment players. With subpoenas now flying in South Dakota, Jessica shares breaking news that could finally expose the truth behind America's digital election systems.

In The Choice Ep. 3, Ghost and Ashe in America explore The Chosen's third episode, “Jesus Loves the Little Children,” unpacking its hidden symbolism, scriptural depth, and emotional impact. The hosts dive into how this episode reveals Jesus' humanity for the first time, working, laughing, and teaching children in the wilderness, while echoing the seven days of creation through his lessons and labor. They examine how childlike faith contrasts with the cynicism of adults, and how innocence, obedience, and love form the foundation of the Kingdom of God. From foreshadowing Jesus' ministry and the Sermon on the Mount to powerful reflections on humility, morality, and divine purpose, Ghost and Ashe connect the dots between Scripture, storytelling, and real-world faith. The discussion flows from laughter to reverence, highlighting why this “simple” episode might be one of the most profound portrayals of Christ's character ever filmed.

CannCon and Ashe in America take on a packed news day in this sharp and often hilarious edition of Badlands Daily. From the legal battles over Trump-appointed prosecutors to a former Army sergeant's treasonous attempt to sell secrets to China, they unpack how corruption and incompetence continue to collide in Washington. The hosts dive into the rise of “democratic socialism,” exposing how corporate power and government collusion have replaced true capitalism in America. They tackle Congress's reversal of Trump's Brazil tariffs, DOJ investigations into Trump allies under “Operation Arctic Frost,” and the suspiciously garbled FBI documents raising questions about AI and declassification. The conversation heats up around Amazon's massive AI layoffs, universal basic income, and the government shutdown threatening SNAP benefits, revealing how dependency and control go hand-in-hand. Equal parts humor and hard truth, this episode cuts through media spin to show how faith, freedom, and discernment are the real countermeasures to globalist chaos.

CannCon and Ashe in America return to the Badlands Book Club for Chapter 9 of The Fourth Turning, diving deep into “Fourth Turnings in History.” With humor, sharp analysis, and a few hurricane jokes, they unpack Neil Howe and William Strauss's theory that history moves in repeating cycles of crisis and renewal. From the War of the Roses to World War II, they trace how catalysts spark cultural rebirth and debate when America's current Fourth Turning began, 9/11, the 2008 crash, or something still unfolding. Ashe connects modern “intersectionality” and victim culture to cyclical social breakdowns, while CannCon draws parallels between COVID-era conformity and historical crises of authority. They explore the predictability of societal collapse, the role of global elites, and whether humanity's rhythm has been hacked. It's a rich blend of philosophy, history, and speculation, with plenty of Badlands banter and even a little pop culture thrown in.

Ashe in America and Abbey Blue Eyes sit down with Annie Hunt of Willow Wind Farm for a masterclass in American agriculture, small business grit, and global economics disguised as wool talk. From her start as a physicist-turned-natural foods executive to running a thriving alpaca farm, Annie reveals the truth behind the U.S. wool industry's decline, and how globalism, regulation, and corporate capture pushed producers out of the market. The discussion unravels the economic pressures facing farmers, the science of natural fibers, and how synthetic textiles and offshoring reshaped American manufacturing. Annie breaks down the difference between merino and alpaca, the frequency of natural fibers, and why vertical integration might be the key to reviving domestic production. This deep, eye-opening conversation goes far beyond wool, exposing how consumer habits and policy choices shape the future of American sovereignty, one fiber, one farm, and one truth at a time.

Ashe in America, Abbey Blue Eyes, Christy Lupo, and Jackie Espada welcome special guest Annie Hunt for a warm, funny, and deeply insightful conversation about Soft Disclosure and the power of radical honesty. The episode opens with the crew's usual laughs, Halloween talk, fupa poses, and idioms of the week, before shifting into Annie's inspiring journey from organic retail strategist to the creator behind Willow Wind Farm and Badlands' beloved Soft Disclosure line. Annie shares how necessity, faith, and “radical honesty” guided her to craft skincare that honors nature's design, using whole-plant infusions, local sourcing, and hand-rendered tallow. She reveals the struggles of scaling her products, the lessons behind her community-driven success, and the philosophy that drives her to live and create with integrity. Between personal stories, laughter, and the science of soap, this episode reminds us that true craftsmanship, and true healing, come from the heart.

In this hard-hitting episode of Why We Vote, Ashe in America is joined by Colonel Shawn Smith (CoA) to dissect the Colorado County Clerks Association's latest attempt to “debunk” the Mesa County election reports. Together, they expose the recycled talking points, false claims, and technical inaccuracies used to cover up systemic election vulnerabilities. Shawn details his background in Air Force operations and cyber testing, explaining how Colorado's voting systems violate federal standards and why operating system logs are, in fact, crucial election records. Ashe and Shawn walk through each false claim, from the “trusted build” cover-up to expired lab accreditations and Wi-Fi-enabled machines, unraveling how election integrity has been obscured by propaganda and misinformation. They also tackle Liberty Vote's suspicious rebrand of Dominion and what it means for 2026. It's a masterclass in truth, transparency, and the fight to reclaim trust in America's elections.

In Episode 2 of The Choice, Ghost and Ashe in America explore The Chosen's “Shabbat,” unpacking its rich symbolism, moral conflicts, and spiritual lessons. The hosts discuss how this episode reveals each character's inner struggle before meeting Jesus, from Simon's betrayal and Matthew's isolation to Nicodemus's doubt and Mary's redemption. Ashe breaks down the deeper meaning of the Sabbath, the biblical roots of the “woman of valor,” and the significance of the empty seat left for Elijah, fulfilled when Jesus arrives to dine at Mary's humble Shabbat table. Ghost and Ashe tie these themes to modern faith, hypocrisy, and redemption, reflecting on how God meets us where we are. A powerful conversation about faith, conflict, and the moment when grace enters the room.

Organizations strive to stay true to their mission.The Watauga Land Trust was formed in 1995, established by Appalachian State University students concerned with protecting Howard Knob, a mountain adjacent to the Town of Boone. The new organization raised local awareness about the unprecedented pace of development not just around Boone, but across North Carolina's northwestern mountains. These concerns galvanized the local community and in 1997 the Watauga Land Trust changed its name to High Country Conservancy and expanded its jurisdiction to include Ashe, Avery and Watauga counties. The organization's mission was “to protect the natural resources of Appalachia by conserving land with significant ecological, cultural, recreational, or scenic value in the North Carolina High Country.”In May of 2010, Blue Ridge Rural Land Trust based in West Jefferson, North Carolina and High Country Conservancy, based in Boone merged to create Blue Ridge Conservancy, a private, non-profit organization that has protected over 22,000 acres in Alleghany, Ashe, Avery, Mitchell, Watauga, Wilkes and Yancey Counties.In early October 2025, Blue Ridge Conservancy announced after 30 years of effort, it has secured the opportunity to purchase 73 acres on the north and east side of Howard Knob. This property adjoins the existing 5-acre park owned by Watauga County, and will protect the land forever and provide public access for nature-based recreation, including hiking and rock climbing. On this week's Mind Your Business, we speak with Eric Hiegl, BRC's Senior Director of Land Protection and Conservation Planning. We'll hear about how the organization's persistence saw them achieve their founding objective. We'll also discuss BRC's plans to enhance public access to this property in a manner that enhances outdoor recreation opportunities in storied area of Watauga County.Mind Your Business is written and produced weekly by the Boone Area Chamber of Commerce. Thanks to Blue Ridge Conservancy for providing historical context to this story. This podcast is made possible thanks to the sponsorship support of Appalachian Commercial Real Estate.Catch the show each Thursday afternoon at 5PM on WATA (1450AM & 96.5FM) in Boone.Join us for Passing the Torch: A Dialogue on Leadership Transition, November 3rd, from 5:30-8PM at the Appalachian Theatre of the High Country.

CannCon and Ashe in America return to Badlands Daily with a packed rundown of breaking stories, political absurdities, and sharp analysis you won't hear anywhere else. They open with John Brennan's criminal referral for lying to Congress, linking it back to Russiagate, Comey, and the long trail of deep-state deception. From there, they break down President Trump's unprecedented $230 million claim against the DOJ for wrongful investigations, framing it as another major step in the broader justice narrative. Ashe brings in insight on Tulsi Gabbard's Weaponization Working Group and the growing accountability movement, while CannCon dissects the arrest of a State Department advisor accused of hoarding classified documents. The pair also tackle DHS's new $10 billion self-deportation initiative, migrant gang threats, and Argentina's $20 billion stabilization deal, complete with a deep dive into the American beef industry. Wrapping up with Virginia's “ballot hole” controversy, Trump's Putin summit rumors, and a dose of Badlands humor, this episode captures the perfect blend of wit, news, and no-nonsense commentary.

Jon Herold returns to The Daily Herold with Monday mayhem, dogs in the yard, alpaca jokes, and a packed rundown of weekend chaos. Between clips of Ashe at Willow Wind Farms and birthday shoutouts, Jon dives into Trump's fiery weekend posts, including a warning to Colombia's president over drug trafficking that sounds like a scene from Clear and Present Danger. He unpacks Trump's tense meeting with Zelensky, reports of a planned Budapest summit with Putin, and a new rare earth minerals deal with Australia aimed at countering China's dominance. The show also covers GOP senators pushing for Jack Smith's disbarment, Trump's $15 billion defamation suit against The New York Times, and fresh DOJ shakeups in the Comey case. Between news breaks, Jon builds a tongue-in-cheek “Political Foreplay” list of Trump's yet-to-be-completed promises, from Freedom Cities to “Arrest Fauci.” Equal parts serious analysis and sarcastic humor, this episode blends world news, grassroots banter, and Badlands energy into one hilarious, caffeinated ride through the headlines.

Ashe in America, Christy Lupo, and Jackie Espada serve up laughs, learning, and a little chaos in this jam-packed episode of Alphas Make Sandwiches. With Abby out sick, the trio dives into pop culture challenges, hilarious chat banter, and the origins of the phrase “pulling your leg.” Things take an unexpected turn when Ashe shares her weekend at Annie's Willow Wind Farm, complete with alpaca antics, a “women's prison” pen, and an in-depth look at the wool industry and Soft Disclosure's all-natural product line. From adorable baby animals to wild reproductive science, the story is equal parts educational and hysterical. The crew also introduces Buttercup, the farm's newest puppy mascot, and previews Annie's upcoming guest appearance to discuss sustainable American wool and handmade skincare. It's wholesome, witty, and delightfully unfiltered, classic Badlands charm with a farm-fresh twist.

CannCon and Ashe in America take on one of the biggest election stories in years, Dominion's quiet sale and rebrand to “Liberty Vote.” The duo unpacks how this deal was kept hidden from state officials, why the same players remain in charge, and what it really means for America's election systems. Ashe shares behind-the-scenes details from Colorado's county clerks and the contradictions between official statements and what's being told to local leaders. CannCon exposes the merger's deeper implications, from potential data consolidation to the loss of election transparency, and questions whether the public is simply being pacified with a new name. Joined by election integrity expert Holly Kesler, they trace the tangled web of companies behind Dominion, KnowInk, and Liberty Vote, warning that this merger could create a monopoly over both machines and poll pads. The discussion expands to Georgia's election board corruption, Dr. Jan Johnston's fight for accountability, and Colonel Conrad Reynolds' shocking indictment for exit polling in Arkansas. Packed with revelations, outrage, and humor, this episode pulls back the curtain on what may be the most important, and deceptive, “reform” in modern election history.

CannCon and Ashe in America take the Friday reins on Badlands Daily for a packed show that swings from laughter to deep dives in record time.

The pair trace how this case ties into Comey's leaks and a shadow network inside government that's finally being exposed. From there, they analyze Kash Patel's revelations about FBI investigations into Antifa's funding and command structure, the first-ever Antifa terrorism indictments, and what it all means for America's deep-state unraveling. Between laughs about “Get to the rifles!” memes, a wild California homelessness scandal, and Trump's call with Putin proposing a peace summit in Budapest, the episode mixes sharp insight, dark humor, and unapologetic energy, classic Badlands from start to finish.

In the premiere of The Choice, Ghost and Ashe in America open their new faith-based series with an in-depth discussion of The Chosen Season 1, Episode 1,  “I Have Called You by Name.” What begins as a conversation about storytelling quickly evolves into a moving reflection on fear, redemption, and the accessibility of Christ's message. The hosts explore Mary Magdalene's transformation, Nicodemus's confrontation with demonic power, and how legalism and fear still shape faith today. Along the way, Ghost and Ashe connect biblical lessons to modern life, from spiritual warfare to reclaiming authentic worship in a distracted world. With warmth, humor, and heartfelt conviction, they set the stage for a show that invites believers and seekers alike to rediscover the living Word of God through conversation, culture, and cinematic storytelling.

With sharp humor, honest self-reflection, and classic Badlands banter, this chapter closes with insights into Y2K, 9/11, and the crises that redefined an era.

Ashe in America and Abbey Blue Eyes take on one of their most wide-ranging and eye-opening episodes yet. From Karl Marx and capitalism to cloning, transhumanism, and the broken U.S. healthcare system, the hosts dive deep into why a nation with the most advanced medical technology remains the “healthiest but most unhealthy.” They expose how Obamacare, corporate monopolies, and government overreach have turned healthcare into “sick care,” discuss Trump's fight for price transparency, and question the moral limits of innovation, from AI soldiers to human cloning. With intelligence, humor, and conviction, Ashe and Abbey reveal how globalism, corruption, and spiritual decay have reshaped medicine...and why restoring truth, freedom, and faith is the real cure.

Ashe in America, Zak Paine, and Ghost take the helm of Badlands Daily for a historic morning following President Trump's unprecedented Middle East peace deal.

CannCon and Ashe in America dive into newly released sworn testimony from a Venezuelan whistleblower detailing Smartmatic's origins, its ties to Dominion, and how both systems share the same DNA behind modern election software. The hosts break down shocking claims about Chinese-made components, deleted log files, “trusted builds,” and the manipulation of ballot images, all pointing to systemic vulnerabilities. Drawing connections between past investigations, Smartmatic's influence in Venezuela and the Philippines, and current U.S. voting infrastructure, they discuss what this means for election integrity and accountability in America. With humor, skepticism, and plenty of technical insight, CannCon and Ashe unpack a complex web of fraud, cover-ups, and digital sleight of hand that every voter should hear.

Chris Paul and Ashe in America team up for a jam-packed Badlands Daily covering everything from Dominion's shocking rebrand as “Liberty Vote” to President Trump's renewed push for vaccine transparency.

From Elon Musk's classified security clearances to the CDC's backpedal on childhood vaccine ingredients, Ashe and Chris break down the deeper systems of control and corruption that have shaped modern America, and what it will take to dismantle them. Honest, sharp, and a little irreverent, this episode embodies the spirit of Badlands: questioning everything, trusting nothing, and laughing through the chaos.

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.

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.

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.

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.
