In Episode 18 of OnlyLands, a rowdy roundtable of Badlands Media hosts reunite for a chaotic, comical, and occasionally profound ride through current events and internet absurdity. The crew opens with tales of turtle-wrangling, rain-soaked farms, and porchbound possums before diving into deeper waters, like declining trust in the justice system and the psychological toll of living under constant surveillance. They tackle a viral video of an 8-month-old baby allegedly being taught to twerk, prompting a passionate conversation about degeneracy, cultural decay, and the urgent need for moral boundaries in both parenting and media. Other highlights include thoughts on how spiritual warfare is manifesting in everyday life, the failure of institutions to protect the innocent, and why sometimes you just need to touch grass and shoot cans in the backyard. From the hilarious to the heartfelt, this episode captures the full spectrum of what makes OnlyLands tick: offbeat banter, righteous indignation, and a relentless drive to call out clown world with clarity and humor.

The crew dives into the latest narrative warfare swirling around Trump's supposed Epstein “letter,” laughing off media traps while warning about the deeper disinfo games at play.

Commentary spans from Fauci's ghost reappearances and collapsing narratives around COVID origins, to grifters and gatekeepers losing control of the online space. With the perfect blend of sarcasm, camaraderie, and serious insight, the panel also touches on spiritual warfare, redemption arcs, and the need for grit and clarity in chaotic times.

In this rollicking episode of The Liberty Den, a rotating crew of Badlands Media hosts dive into a sprawling discussion that zigzags from personal ice maker obsessions to conspiracies worthy of a thriller. The group debates the rumored showdown between Dan Bongino, Kash Patel, and Pam Bondi, weighing whether it's genuine infighting or political theater designed to confuse and distract. They break down John Solomon's bombshell reporting about an ongoing criminal conspiracy case tracing back to Russiagate, Hillary Clinton, and the CIA, all the way to the 2020 election and beyond. The conversation shifts into theories about timing, the possibility of a RICO case encompassing years of misconduct, and what mass accountability could look like. Amid the heavy topics, there's plenty of irreverent banter about Bitcoin as the unstoppable plan, band camp confessions, pickleball firefighting, and a few tongue-in-cheek product pitches. By the end, the hosts muse about whether public spectacle and reality TV might be the only way to root out corruption once and for all.

Jon Herold is the owner and founder of Badlands Media, which has become a formidable brand in the new media landscape. The author of the well-known anthology of essays on continuity of government, known as the Devolution series, I would like to see what Jon thinks about our current condition as a culture, and expand that into how New Media is already being forced into new evolutionary directions.

In this introspective episode, Frankie Val sits down with Badlands Media founder Jon Herold for a candid discussion about the triumphs and pitfalls of the alternative media world. They trace the rise of new platforms and the pressures that come with monetization, including the relentless grind to produce content and the echo chambers that breed both tribalism and burnout. Jon shares behind-the-scenes stories of building Badlands, from battling suppression and shadow banning on every major platform to launching the Great American Restoration Tour as a way to reconnect people offline. The two dissect the viral backlash to Trump's curt dismissal of Epstein questions and debate whether the memo “rug pull” was a deliberate op to fracture the movement or simply more evidence of systemic opacity. They also explore how clickbait culture and algorithm incentives have hollowed out genuine inquiry, replacing curiosity with perpetual outrage. From personal anecdotes about navigating online smear campaigns to reflections on what audiences really want, community, honest dialogue, and time away from the doom cycle, this episode offers a thoughtful look at where independent media is heading and why it still matters.

In this unfiltered episode of OnlyLands, a full Badlands Media panel gathers for nearly three hours of irreverent banter and intense debate. The crew starts with a rundown of the chaos surrounding Epstein narratives, questioning why the DOJ insists there's no credible client list and unpacking the fallout across the movement. They analyze Trump's dismissive remarks and argue whether the timing of the memo release was designed to provoke outrage or distraction. The conversation dives into parallel theories about blackmail as leverage over global leaders and whether hidden evidence will ever surface. In between serious discussions, there's no shortage of humor—roasts about fashion choices, references to Mount Rushmore as a misogynistic symbol, and a nostalgic watch of Dave Chappelle's “Race Draft.” The group explores why people still treat old Q drops like gospel, what “transparency” really means, and how moral lines are drawn when fighting systemic corruption. With digressions into John Kasich's pancake eating, Biden impressions, and the ethics of political blackmail, this episode balances skepticism, dark comedy, and genuine frustration over the illusions propping up American institutions.

In this episode of The Daily Herold, Jon unpacks the House showdown over Trump's sweeping tax and spending bill, detailing how the Senate's version gutted major promises like eliminating taxes on tips and overtime by imposing strict income limits. He covers Hakeem Jeffries' marathon floor speech that set a new record, the backroom deals that secured Republican votes, and why the bill still falls short of delivering true tax relief. Jon also spotlights June's remarkable jobs report, with native-born employment soaring while foreign-born numbers fell sharply, marking what he calls a “domestic labor renaissance.” Other stories include Microsoft laying off thousands of American workers in favor of H1B visa hires, the Supreme Court taking up a case on transgender athletes in school sports, new US concessions to China on semiconductor exports, and a fresh look at the White House's payroll. Jon wraps up with lively chat commentary, reflections on four years of the Devolution series, and a preview of Badlands Media's Independence Day programming.

In this freewheeling episode of OnlyLands, a rotating cast of Badlands Media hosts gathers to dissect the week's most surreal headlines. The show kicks off with an irreverent breakdown of Trump's “One Big Beautiful Bill,” exploring how its massive spending and rushed negotiations have become a high-stakes reality show of amendments, line-item veto theories, and performative deadlines. The crew debates whether the bill is a genuine achievement or a carefully orchestrated trap to expose politicians' allegiances. They then pivot to the viral spectacle of “Alligator Alcatraz,” the Florida detention facility rumored to be surrounded by a reptile-filled moat. After examining photos and debunking AI-generated images, the panel concludes the moat is more marketing than menace, and probably designed to drive narrative warfare. The conversation meanders through tales of pilot season in Hollywood, the AI future of scripted content, and whether robots will someday replace soccer players and talk show hosts alike. With plenty of tangents on Faraday siding, Tiger King jokes, and the irony of government narratives, this episode is part cultural roast, part geopolitical therapy session, and all Badlands.

The crew kicks off with chatter about the secret Lakeland meetup and quickly dives into the viral buzz around “Alligator Alcatraz”, a Florida immigration facility surrounded by Everglades wilderness and a mythical gauntlet of alligators, pythons, and mosquitoes. They unpack how ICE's limited manpower creates a psychological operation of fear that's emptying stadiums and causing mass self-deportations. The conversation drifts into hilarious personal tales, including Zak's teenage prom photos in a leisure suit and chain wallet, debates about gator cuisine, and the surprisingly wholesome origins of Florida's iguana hunting scene. From mainstream media pedo arrests to nostalgia over bad ‘90s action movies, this episode is equal parts cultural roast and community check-in. The hosts wrap up with plans for Deadwood, reflections on shadow governments, and a toast to the enduring spirit of Badlandia.
