In this episode of the More Freedom Foundation Podcast, Rob takes Ruairi on a deep dive into the dark underbelly of U.S. immigration policy. While America has long benefited from the labor and vulnerability of immigrants, Rob argues that recent decades have seen this exploitation become more organized—and more brutal. From decades of systemic neglect to the rise of ICE and the hardline policies of the Trump era, the conversation explores how a broken system reached its boiling point.Is this just the latest chapter in a long history, or a dangerous turning point?

We're only six months into Trump 2.0 and things are getting bad fast. He was looking for a fight. And he found it. Unrest in Los Angeles has been met with a mobilization of troops that few predicted. But your host, Paul Rieckhoff, did. For five years we've been sounding the alarm. Thinking the unthinkable—that has often come true. From COVID, to Trump refusing to leave office, to the January 6th insurrection, to armed violence and now troops in the streets—-this is one episode you can't afford to miss. And in times like these you need to hear from voices of experience, voices of calm, and voices of reason. Barbara Starr is all that and more and she joins Paul for a no bullshit look at where we are—and where we are going. She's a renowned journalist, an Emmy award winning producer, and a former CNN Pentagon correspondent. She spent 21 years reporting from hotspots including Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Yemen, the Horn of Africa and the Chinese-North Korean border and is one of the most recognizable faces in conflict reporting. She's reported extensively on fallen and wounded troops, as well as the plight of homeless veterans. She's seen and covered it all. She's one of the best in the business and there isn't anybody else we'd rather talk to about all of it. So as the world turns increasingly chaotic and dangerous, take a couple minutes to listen to this conversation, get yourself smarter and get ready for what comes next. Buckle up.

In this latest installment of Unidentified History, Dave gives a debrief of Contact in the Desert. He had the opportunity to spend a day at the largest UFO/UAP Convention in the world and, spoiler alert...he had a hell of a time. Dave discusses with PC Tunney and DJ his takeaways from the event, including the state of Disclosure, why we need to take Experiencers more seriously, why not enough attention is being paid to USOs, and did Dave capture something odd on his Night Vision goggles? The guys also discuss a recent allegation made to Representative Eric Burlison that the tic-tac might have been Lockheed-Martin tech all along. Could this be true? In the second half of the show, we finally get to our first historical deep dive as the guys break down the Battle of Los Angeles. Over 5 years before Kenneth Arnold and Roswell, at the beginning of the USA's involvement in World War II, the skies over Los Angeles erupted as over 1400 rounds of ammunition were fired into the darkness at an unknown object(s). But no planes were downed, no wreckage was found, and the entire incident remains shrouded in mystery. Was a UFO involved, and if so, was this the first mass UFO sighting in North America? The guys take a fresh look at this iconic incident to see if anything new has been learned in the past 80 years and whether there is any way to solve one of the enduring mysteries of Ufology. Once thought to be solely the stuff of science fiction, UAPs (UFOs) are very real to millions around the world. In 2021, the US Government confirmed that leaked UAP video was legitimate. Ever since, there has been an explosion of interest in the topic. Yet, we are no closer to understanding UAPs, where they come from, or who/what is behind the phenomenon. In this new series, we look to bridge the gap between the past and present by looking at some of the most important UAP sightings in history and determining whether the question of "are we alone in the universe?" might have already been answered.About the Chairshot Radio NetworkLaunched in 2017, the Chairshot Radio Network presents you with the best in sports, entertainment, and sports entertainment.

Whether or not you think Rage Against the Machine is nu-metal, we can all agree on one thing: they definitely did not like each other while making this record, which stands as their last–to date–of original material. Some bands thrive on the conflict though, and this album has bangers upon bangers that stand the test of time and while "Evil Empire" and their self-titled debut may get more of the plaudits, this is a worthy ender to the RATM trilogy. We also get deep into the Zach de la Rocha mythos, how the band managed their conflicts and potentially differing politics at the time, and this record informs why they perhaps haven't gotten back together to make anything new ever since. Plus, Bryan gives us his comprehensive review of the Sonic Temple Music Festival. If you want more reviews of many more things, you can donate to our Patreon!

Welcome back to the greatest indie tournament coverage pod on the Internet, Nattering BOLA. As always, we are sponsored and on the Visionaries Global Media Network, along with every other iteration of Nattering With E. Oh yeah, so I'm Eric Freeds, and I'm joined by my good pal and perhaps Jagged Little Pill David Bauer aka Bauerhausen no relation to Jack or Court Bauer. So, without further ado let us begin night two of the 2017 Battle Of Los Angeles, brought to you by Alanis Morissette, Sharon, Lois and Bram, and Dave Meltzer:
Welcome back to the best Indie Wrestling Tournament Podcast of all time, Nattering BOLA. After the dastardly Marty Scurll won the 2016 Battle Of Los Angeles, he would face PWG World Champion Zack Sabre Jr. at Mystery Vortex IV. Zack Sabre Jr. would retain in a match that Bauerhausen and I both agreed was a little long for what it needed to be. Today, however, we're hopping into our DeLorean DMC-12 as your hosts, Doc Bauerhausen and Marty McFreeds, travel to the American Legion Post #308 for the 2017 Battle Of Los Angeles! Our car will be parked all of Labor Day weekend 2017 outside the American Legion, while our shows will be broadcast over the next month back at the Visionaries Global Media's Nattering With E Studios.
The "Battle of Los Angeles" in 1942, also known as the Great Los Angeles Air Raid, was a false alarm where anti-aircraft artillery fired on an object in the sky, later determined to be a weather balloon or possibly a UFO, rather than a Japanese attack.
On the night of February 25, 1942, less than three months after Pearl Harbor, Los Angeles was gripped by fear as air raid sirens wailed and a total blackout stretched to the Mexican border. Powerful arc lamps lit up the sky, and anti-aircraft guns fired wildly as reports of enemy aircraft flooded in — some claiming planes crashed down across the city, though no wreckage was found. Even military leaders couldn't agree on what had happened. Some dismissing it as a false alarm, while others insisted non-U.S. aircraft were present. Eyewitnesses, including trained military observers, described seeing strange, slow-moving objects — one even shaped like a butterfly — and estimating anywhere from 1 to 25 of these aircraft. Decades later, declassified documents suggested the military misled the public, with one army chief allegedly reporting to President Roosevelt that the craft were likely of interplanetary origin. This week, we travel back to 1942 to sift through the conflicting reports, from that night and beyond, to help theorize the true nature of the so-called "Battle of Los Angeles."

On the night of February 24-25, 1942, air raid sirens wailed over Los Angeles as the military unleashed a storm of anti-aircraft fire at an unidentified object in the sky. Was it an enemy attack, a UFO encounter, or the greatest military blunder in history? Eyewitnesses reported a massive, glowing craft hovering over the city—yet the government insists there was nothing there. Were they covering up something much bigger?

Text Our Show HostsTonight we discuss the wildfires burning across vast areas of Los Angeles, threatening homes, businesses, and lives. The numbers are staggering… at the time of this recording… At least 10 lives have been lost… 153K people have been evacuated… 34K acres have been burnt to the ground between the Palisades and Eaton fires alone… more than 10k buildings are destroyed. And to make things even worse, a brand new fire in the San Fernando Valley has prompted even more evacuation orders.Beyond the headlines, there's the real, human impact. The firefighters on the front lines, the families displaced, the first responders, and the volunteers working tirelessly to provide relief.Houses, vehicles, schools, municipal buildings, businesses, roads and bridges, farmland, infrastructure and communication… all gone in the affected areas. Officials say the damage is at least 8.5 billion dollars so far and that number will most likely double when this disaster is contained.Tonight, we're gonna break down what's happening in California and how we can prepare for wildfires, whether you're in the direct path of one or not.We'll cover the essentials: what you need in your wildfire emergency kit… how to create an evacuation plan… and what kind of protective gear can help you stay safe if you need to leave in a hurry.As always, Please check the show notes below for valuable info and links.Let's get to it.Visit HoneyComb Holler on YouTubeTOPSBunker.comPlease Visit Our Affiliate Links to Find Great Composting Products:Prepared Hero Emergency Fire BlanketPrepared Hero Fire Extinguisher 2-PackPrepared Hero Flame Shield Personal Fire CapePrepared Hero Survival BivyFireProof Personal Escape CloakKIDDE Quick Deploy Fire Escape Ladder 2-Story 13'KIDDE Quick Deploy Fire Escape Ladder 3-Story 25'LHKNL Headlamp Flashlight 1200 LumensAirGearPro G-750 Full Face RespiratorPD-100 Pro Full Face RespiratorSawyer SP-120 Mini Water Filtration SystemBAOFENG Radio UV-5R 8W Ham Radio 2-PackCV LIFE Tactical Ruck Back Pack 60L CV LIFE Tactical Hydration Back PackSupport the show

As two lifelong wrestling fans and pals, Bauerhausen, aka David Bauer, and Eric, aka Nattering With E, take on the task of watching every Pro Wrestling Guerilla Battle of Los Angeles. Starting in 2003, BOLA was one of several tournaments that PWG would run, which pretty much made them the best of the indies from the mid-2000s until they went on hiatus in 2023. For this MONTHLY podcast, the duo will be watching every Battle of Los Angeles from 2013 to 2021. Many people would say that mid-2000s indie promotions like PWG, Chikara, and, of course, Ring of Honor set the stage for All Elite Wrestling. What Is The Battle Of Los Angeles Set as a 16-person tournament, with the winner getting a PWG World Championship match, we opted to start in 2013 as it coincides with ROH Revelery, one of our favorite podcasts. Also, for some reason, every tournament from 2011 - 2021 is on Highspots, but nothing earlier. As always we're sponsored and proud members of the Visionaries Global Media. You can catch this and all of the Nattering shows on Wednesdays and Thursdays on VGM and the Nattering E Network!

The Bears roll into L.A. and put up a stinker against the Chargers who find them no trouble at all. Gino fills in for Chris today and he and Niko go over the organizational problems more so than the issues with this one game. (The recording abruptly stopped and had to be restarted that's why the momentum starts and stops at around the 38 minute mark. Sorry for the inconvenience)

IMPACT Wrestling's SPEEDBALL MIKE BAILEY talks about getting banned from the USA, his almost-career as a stunt man, winning PWG Battle Of Los Angeles and preparing for IMPACT Wrestling Slammiversary.

On the evening of February 24, 1942, an anti-aircraft barrage of more than 1,440 rounds is launched at what is initially thought to be a Japanese aerial attack on the City of Angels. Five civilians die – three from traffic accidents spawned by the chaos and two from heart attacks. What, if anything, is being fired upon remains a mystery. Theories include weather balloons, UFOs, birds, or just jitters by Angelenos with Pearl Harbor still a fresh memory and, even fresher, a Japanese submarine torpedoing a Santa Barbara oil field on February 23. Regardless of cause, air raid sirens first blare at 7:18 p.m. Thousands of air raid wardens go to their posts throughout Los Angeles County. That alert is lifted at 10:23 p.m. Tensions ease. Then, after midnight, all hell breaks loose. Follow the Madness on Social Media!

SKIP TO 00:16:00 TO GET TO THIS WEEK'S STORY Shortly after 2am on February 25, 1942, air raid sirens pierced the skies of Los Angeles, California and frightened citizens braced for an attack by the Japanese. Bombs exploded around the city, shrapnel careened through houses and garages, and there were even reports of Japanese paratroopers descending over downtown along with an airplane crashing at a popular intersection in Hollywood. By daylight, however, citizens were shocked to walk out of their homes to find nothing: no Japanese ships lay off the coast, no downed enemy aircraft were found, and no enemy bomb damage was reported. Those who lived through the ordeal are adamant — they KNOW what they saw: an alien space craft hovering in the sky, unaffected by American anti-aircraft shells. As usual, the government denies that the whole kerfuffle was caused by anything more than a misplaced weather balloon *yawn*. Join us as we sift through as many primary sources as possible in an effort to unearth the truth behind The Battle of Los Angeles. —— Buy Manscaped products: https://www.manscaped.com & use code “LETSGETHAUNTED” for 20% off —— Other Important Stuff: Buy Our Merch: https://www.letsgethaunted.com Donate to our stupid show: https://ko-fi.com/dogmomusa Check out the photo dump for this week's episode: https://www.instagram.com/letsgethaunted Send us fan mail: PO BOX 1658 Camarillo, CA 93011 Send us your listener stories: LetsGetHauntedPod@gmail.com Theme song by: Steven Suptic
