Digging for dinosaurs is a dream job for young children around the world. For a Winona State University professor, that is his job, and he's just made one of the rarest dinosaur discoveries in the world. The fossils discovered in the Badlands of North Dakota is 66 million years old and may be what's called a “dinosaur mummy.” That means skin and tissue from the dinosaur could still be intact. Joining Minnesota Now host Nina Moini to talk about his discovery is Winona State geoscience professor and paleontologist Lee Beatty.

CannCon and Ghost kick off the week with Biden's catastrophic polling slide, breaking down the demographic collapse and why even legacy media can no longer hide voter defection. They dive into the strange evolution of the January 6 pipe-bomb narrative, the FBI's shifting explanations, and new reporting that raises more questions than answers. The hosts also tackle Trump's latest posts, the DOJ's panicked legal maneuvers, and the administration's renewed push for AI-based election regulation. From global instability to domestic political theater, CannCon and Ghost connect the dots on a news cycle defined by mixed messaging, narrative control, and institutional panic, all delivered with their signature humor and sharp analysis.

In this festive episode of Alphas Make Sandwiches, Ashe in America, Abbey Blue Eyes, Christy Lupo, and Jackie Espada welcome Annie from Willow Wind Farm for a warm, funny, and wildly creative holiday show. From Christmas challenges, tree photography tips, and bow-tying tutorials to gift-wrapping hacks, Universal Studios' Grinch antics, and chaotic celebrity eggnog attempts, the ladies dive headfirst into the season. Annie shares the story behind Soft Disclosure and the intentional, American-made process behind each product while the hosts showcase holiday cocktails, charcuterie creations, and self-care tips for surviving the winter rush. It's a sparkling blend of laughter, crafts, cozy farm life, behind-the-scenes moments, and a whole lot of Christmas spirit, the perfect companion for anyone decking the halls Badlands-style.

CannCon and Zak Paine kick off the week with major revelations, starting with a federal judge approving the release of Epstein grand jury transcripts, signaling a potential seismic shift in long-buried evidence. He then digs into the confusing and contradictory rollout of the J6 pipe bomb suspect, questioning the FBI's narrative and prosecutor Jocelyn Ballantyne's involvement. The episode widens to expose cartel-linked money laundering tied to a former DEA official, widespread Somali-led welfare and PPP fraud in Minnesota, and the DOJ's sudden interest in voter-roll failures. They also break down Trump's evolving vaccine stance, the Supreme Court's review of birthright citizenship, and global backlash to America's new National Security Strategy, including EU outrage and NATO's scramble to adapt. A fast-moving hour connecting corruption, policy shifts, and geopolitical realignment.

#Predator #PredatorBadlands #Aliens #AvP The Predator franchise has always been consistently entertaining(Barring the 2018 Predator movie which fell short despite some moments). At any rate coming off of Prey, Killer of Killers and even Alien: Romulus & Alien: Earth, it seems like we're heading down the road towards a legit Alien vs Predator movie. But while we're on this road, enter Predator: Badlands which does a solid job of putting you into this established universe with a twist...This time we're following a young Predator who's out to prove himself to his clan. With that setup, we got a film that overall hits all the beats you expect from the Predator franchise even with the PG-13 rating. This is a must watch.

A lively mix of Badlands Media hosts gathers for a loose, unpredictable night of conversation as they battle tech gremlins, stream delays, and the general weirdness of the week. What begins with jokes about broken cameras, AI quirks, and livestream struggles quickly expands into reflections on coups, world instability, political theater, and the sense that 2025 is teetering on the edge of something big. The hosts mix humor, personal stories, cultural observations, and spontaneous tangents while interacting with the chat and reacting to whatever chaos surfaces next. Unscripted, unfiltered, and unmistakably Badlands, Episode 34 captures the camaraderie, randomness, and community energy that make OnlyLands a weekly refuge for both hosts and viewers.

Steffan and Gavia share their enthusiastic review of Predator: Badlands, a standalone adventure story that casts a young Predator as the protagonist, teaming up with a perky android (Elle Fanning) to explore an alien planet. Among other topics, this episode covers the excellent casting of breakout star Dimitrius Schuster-Koloamatangi, the film's imaginative sci-fi worldbuilding, and director Dan Trachtenberg's genre-savvy approach to action.

In this episode, we place Predator: Badlands within the Predator universe, examining what Dan Trachtenberg and Patrick Aison bring to the table and how Elle Fanning and Dimitrius Schuster-Koloamatangi anchor the story. We compare the film's approach to the original and newer installments, discuss its tonal shifts, and debate whether it signals a new direction for the franchise. We also discuss the setup, the mood, and the film's bold visual language, plus what to watch for in the action and scares. If you're curious about the tone and teaser moments, this is the episode for you.

CannCon and Chris Paul tackle a whirlwind of breaking stories, beginning with Congress's sudden panic over AI “deepfake” election interference, a narrative they argue is designed to pre-blame Trump and justify new censorship powers. They pivot to Alabama's border revolt, where the state vows to defend its sovereignty while DHS plays political games with illegal-immigration numbers and asylum fraud. From there, they break down the media's bizarre framing of J6, the federal government's collapsing credibility, and Kamala Harris's strange, overly theatrical public appearances. The hosts also examine Trump's mounting pressure campaigns, the manufactured panic over tariffs, and new polling exposing how thoroughly the public has rejected legacy-media narratives. With sharp analysis, humor, and Chris Paul's signature pattern recognition, this episode cuts through misinformation to explain what's actually happening and why the establishment seems increasingly desperate.      

Breaking Bad actor Jesus Payan joins to show some of his Bigfoot evidence.

Josh is joined by Edgar Wright/Predator Correspodents Elijah Howard and Daniel Lima for a double feature. First, they discuss Wright's newest feature, "The Running Man" (Beginning-53:30) including how the film balanced being a thriller while trying to offer commentary of economic inequality, Glen Powell's lead performance and the quality of the various set pieces. Then (53:31-end) the talk about Predator: Badlands and how the newest installment of the long-running franchise benefitted from telling a very straightforward story, Elle Fanning's impressive dual performance, how the film did in having to rely on CGI and green screen's for most of its runtime and much more!

Tonight we're stepping straight into the shadows with guest host Abbey from Badlands as we dive into the legends that refuse to die. From Krampus lurking in the winter dark to Bigfoot and the Yeti roaming the forests and mountains, all the way to the shape-shifting, soul-stealing Kushtaka of Alaska… these stories have survived for a reason. Where do these creatures come from? Why do cultures around the world describe the same beings? And what do these myths say about us? Grab a blanket, turn the lights down, and join us for a night of folklore, fear, and the possibility that maybe—just maybe—these monsters aren't just stories.

In this fast-moving episode of Badlands Daily, CannCon opens the show solo as Alpha once again runs on “Alpha Time,” (feel free to give him a hard time) but the delay doesn't slow the breakdown of a chaotic news cycle. The hosts dig into the FBI's sudden announcement of a January 6 pipe bomb arrest, an arrest with no details, no transparency, and plenty of political timing. As legacy media pushes a tidy narrative, CannCon and Alpha unpack the contradictions, the leaks, and the conveniently shifting storylines surrounding the case. The conversation expands into the Venezuelan drug-boat strike, the Pentagon's evolving explanations, Signal-gate, and the inspector general's findings that quietly undercut the manufactured outrage about Secretary Hegseth's messaging practices. From media narratives to geopolitical manipulation to the increasingly obvious collapse of institutional credibility, this episode traces how the story is being shaped, and why.

Send us a textWelcome back to DMRThe newest installment in the Predator franchise, Predator: Badlands, breaks new ground by placing a Predator, or Yautja, as its central protagonist. The story follows Dek, a young, outcast Yautja on a quest to prove his worth to his warrior clan by hunting the seemingly unkillable apex predator of the treacherous, alien world of Genna, often called "The Death Planet." His perilous journey leads to an unlikely alliance with an advanced Weyland-Yutani Corporation android named Thia, whose own mission on the hostile planet went sideways. Together, the mismatched pair must navigate the lethal environment, evade Weyland-Yutani forces, and confront a terrifying creature that challenges everything Dek has been taught about the honor of the hunt, making for a thrilling sci-fi survival adventure.The film is directed by Dan Trachtenberg, who also helmed the critically acclaimed Prey. The main cast features Dimitrius Schuster-Koloamatangi as the Predator protagonist, Dek, and Elle Fanning in the dual role of the androids Thia and Tessa. As of the latest reports, Predator: Badlands has earned over $162 million at the global box office. Critics have embraced the fresh take, awarding it a Certified Fresh 86% on Rotten Tomatoes, while audiences have given it an even higher score of 96%.Reminder to grab your 30 day free Audible trial, link in the show; you'll be helping support DMR

CannCon and Ashe in America wrap up the long-running journey through The Fourth Turning with the dramatic final chapters, breaking down generational “scripts,” crisis-era archetypes, and how each cohort, from GIs to Millennials, is positioned to shape the nation's future. The episode explores the book's warnings about national collapse, its hopes for a Golden Age, and the authors' sweeping take on cyclical history, memory spans, and the eternal return. CannCon and Ashe dig into the text's biggest claims, debate whether America is headed for destruction or renewal, and reflect on what the Fourth Turning means for the moment we're living in now. They also preview the next read, Smedley Butler's War Is a Racket, and discuss future Book Club picks as they officially put this massive work to rest.

Chris Paul and Burning Bright break down Wes Anderson's The Phoenician Scheme, a visually striking film packed with symbolism, geopolitical parallels, and a surprising spiritual backbone. They explore the movie's Trump-like billionaire protagonist, his battles with global power structures, and the deeper themes of sovereignty, faith, manipulation, and systems versus individuals. From assassination attempts and rigged markets to father–daughter dynamics, moral transformation, and the film's sharp commentary on global elites, the hosts connect Anderson's surreal storytelling to real-world politics, cultural shifts, and the ongoing struggle between sovereign actors and entrenched systems. With sharp insights, humor, and a few man-flu jokes, Chris and BB unpack why this movie resonated so deeply and why it feels far more prophetic than quirky.

CannCon and Ashe in America open with sponsor updates and hockey banter before diving straight into the Tennessee special election, where Democrats are already spinning a nine-point GOP win into momentum talking points. They move into Dallas County's move toward hand counting, stressing civic involvement and the broader fight over election integrity. The show then shifts to a heated discussion on immigration after Judge Beryl Howell's new constraints on warrantless arrests and the ACLU's role in shaping enforcement. CannCon and Ashe dig into Minneapolis' Somali-language political speech controversy, Trump's remarks on Minnesota visa fraud, and the broader battle over national identity. From there, they dissect Supreme Court arguments, DOJ investigations, and the political weaponization of the legal system, including the Comey-era “Arctic Haze” probe and ongoing leak issues. The episode also covers Trump's Monroe Doctrine “corollary,” Europe's escalating rhetoric toward Russia, fractured NATO relations, and the shifting landscape in Ukraine. They close by examining Rand Paul's critique of the Venezuela drug-boat strikes, Trump's defense of kinetic action against cartels, and NBC's new polling showing Americans abandoning faith in the four-year college model.

CannCon and Ghost break down Trump's surging tariff revenue and what it means for taxes, trade, and the global balance of power. They dig into explosive SNAP fraud data showing thousands of liquor and smoke shops approved for EBT under Biden, exposing how the system has been weaponized and why accountability is nonexistent. The hosts torch the media meltdown over Trump's new “media bias monitor,” react to DOJ overreach and lawmakers' seized phone records, and call out the “seditious six” pushing dangerous messaging to the military.

Jon Herold kicks off the December 1 Daily Herold with post-Thanksgiving catch-up before diving straight into the drip-drip chaos surrounding Emerald Robinson's ongoing claims about election interference and the Three Musketeers story. He walks through the logical gaps, the lack of sourcing, the contradictions about 2016, and why he believes the narrative ultimately works to delegitimize Trump rather than expose wrongdoing. From there Jon broadens the lens to the wider information war, calling out media hit pieces like the New York Times' attempted takedown of David Sacks, the parallels to attacks against Badlands, and how irregular warfare operates by generating false conflicts and weaponized narratives. He checks in on the lack of new federal documents, DoD updates, Doge's missing Friday posts, and Trump's latest Truth Social messages about Syria, the Sedition 6, and Mark Twain. Later he examines peace-deal rumors around Ukraine, the legal battle over Alina Habba's appointment, and key geopolitical shifts including Venezuelan tensions and Biden-era foreign policy failures. Jon closes with reflections on Bitcoin as energy-based currency, the Flynn debate, and even college-football coaching chaos, all tied back to the larger fight over information, legitimacy, and narrative control.

CannCon and Zak Paine return after the holiday break with a packed episode, opening on the heartbreaking Stockton shooting that left four young people dead before diving into the Treasury Department's new crackdown on illegal remittances sent by migrants working unlawfully in the U.S. They break down how this FinCEN move threatens cartel cash flow, destabilizes sanctuary-state politics, and directly challenges a decades-old system exposed by a newly surfaced 1983 CIA memo. The hosts then turn to Oregon, where the state's attorney general and governor are threatening to arrest federal agents enforcing immigration law, a constitutional confrontation they say is coming to a head. From there, they explore Operation Allies Welcome failures, Afghan nationals flagged for terror ties, and the deeper implications behind the recent D.C. National Guard attack. The show also highlights Trump's escalating posture toward transnational cartels and Venezuela, media attempts to undermine anti-cartel strikes, and how the intelligence community is reacting. A fast-moving, sharp breakdown of immigration, national security, and political warfare.

Predator: Badlands has hit the theater world hard and all the critics love it. What's the catch? Well, there's not a lot going on other than cool gadgets and some jokes.

Mike and Ian have emerged from the theater to the local BOSTON PIZZA to discuss the latest film from Dan Trachtenberg, Predator: Badlands!Does it hold up to some of our other favourites in the franchise, such as Predator (1987) and Prey (2022)?

“Predator: Badlands” is one of those rare movies. You already expect something good after “Prey,” but then you watch this and it turns out to be one of the most satisfying action films of the year. Disney clearly believed in it too, bumping the budget to about 105 million, which is a big jump from “Prey's” 65 million.Dan Trachtenberg is officially three for three. “Prey,” “Killer of Killers,” (also released in2025, on Hulu and awesome) and now “Badlands.” He delivers a confident, fast, beautifully paced movie that never wastes a moment. It also works as a complete standalone. No homework required. You don't need to be a Predator fan or even a sci-fi fan. The movie just pulls you in as a flat-out fun, kickass action experience.The details are great. The runtime is a perfect one hour and forty-seven minutes. The movie lightly introduces Yautja culture without slowing anything down, and the world-building is clear, exciting, and leaves the door open for the future. There's even a subtle crossover nod that never pulls focus.Elle Fanning is incredible. Dimitrius Schuster-Koloamatangi brings a whole new life to the Predator character, making it both terrifying and surprisingly sympathetic. The Kalisk creature is a very fun addition. The invented language is a cool touch. And the villain is genuinely strong without giving anything away.The sound design is excellent, the VFX are top tier, and New Zealand looks unbelievable on screen. Trachtenberg blends real landscapes with massive effects in a way that makes the world feel alive.If there's one small con: you just hope the crossover tease doesn't jinx the success the movie has earned so far.“Badlands” is in theaters now and will likely hit digital platforms in December and stream on Hulu or Disney+ in early 2026.

Shawn and Paul are back, which means it's time for the guys to wrap up their look at the Alien and Predator franchises with a review of Alien: Romulus and Predator: Badlands. Will the guys like the kids of Romulus and the family dynamics of Badlands ior will they demand the return of Sigourney and Arnold?

This chaotic episode of OnlyLands brings together a rotating crew of Badlands hosts for an unfiltered night of comedy, sports takes, and complete conversational derailment. The show opens with Thanksgiving leftovers and AI-generated photo hilarity before spiraling into stories about feral cranes attacking humans, disastrous Black Friday injuries, and a debate over whether Florida wildlife is actively plotting against humanity. From there the crew unloads on college football insanity, bad coaching calls, and the emotional trauma of rivalry week, with side quests into reality TV, dog ownership disasters, terrible tattoos, and boomer tech meltdowns. Listener submissions spark tangents on bizarre license plates, cursed memes, failed home repairs, and why nobody trusts Amazon drivers anymore. With the hosts roasting each other nonstop and the chat egging them on, the episode is peak OnlyLands: no structure, no brakes, all vibes...and a holiday hangout full of laughter.

On this episode of Badlands Daily, CannCon and Ashe in America open with the shocking fallout from the DC National Guard ambush, tracking new details about the suspect's CIA-linked Afghan Special Forces past and the unexplained inconsistencies surrounding his motives, background, and timeline. They dig into Alyssa Slotkin's inflammatory rhetoric, the Seditious Six, and the broader implications of foreign-trained operatives embedded across the U.S. The conversation expands into Biden's disastrous Afghan withdrawal, the flood of unvetted migrants, and Trump's forceful response — including his order for a rigorous re-examination of green cards from countries of concern and his fiery Thanksgiving message promising a permanent immigration pause. From cartel-linked drug routes to geopolitical shifts in Ukraine peace negotiations and the China-Taiwan dynamic, the hosts connect how global power struggles, intelligence operations, and domestic instability are colliding in real time.
