In Episode 358 of Devolution Power Hour, Jon Herold and Burning Bright unravel the threads of global propaganda, economic upheaval, and narrative control as the old world order teeters on collapse. They begin with Trump's Memorial Day speech and transition into his escalating economic strategy, highlighting a new 10% universal tariff, a push for nuclear energy dominance, and the strategic move to position Bitcoin inside retirement portfolios. The duo breaks down the mainstream meltdown over these policies, framing the reactions as signs of desperation from a dying regime. They also tackle the CIA's aggressive push to seed anti-Trump narratives internationally, with a spotlight on a UK Guardian op-ed warning foreign leaders about a second Trump term. From the debt ceiling theater to new revelations around the DOJ, auto-pen scandals, and the medical establishment's crumbling credibility, Jon and B.B. argue we're watching the “controlled demolition” of a corrupt system. Along the way, they explore media framing techniques, the military's evolving role, and what it means to hold the line as truth-tellers in the digital age. This episode is a high-octane mix of strategy, symbolism, and straight talk for those navigating the end of the old world—and preparing for the new one.

Burning Bright and Chris Paul dive into Lawrence of Arabia in this sweeping episode of Badlands Story Hour, unpacking the cinematic grandeur and the layered commentary on empire, narrative warfare, and moral relativism. They explore T.E. Lawrence as a character crafted from myth, an effeminate yet hardened warrior whose legend was both operation and illusion. The discussion winds through parallels with Dune, reflections on British imperialism, the manipulation of tribal identities, and the modern weaponization of narrative. The hosts interrogate the tension between law and values, the decline of moral systems in favor of systemic control, and how the story itself becomes the most powerful weapon in regime hands. They also dissect generational warfare, information battles, and the continued relevance of Lawrence's tactics in today's geopolitical landscape, from Afghanistan to Ukraine. With references to the Balfour Declaration, regime storytelling, and even camel warfare logistics, this episode is both a masterclass in film analysis and a critique of the global narrative machine. Next week, the film club continues with The Final Countdown (1980), joined by Colonel Oak McCulloch.

In this compelling Memorial Day edition of The Narrative, host Burning Bright welcomes Alpha Warrior for a deep and nuanced conversation about the evolution of warfare, from boots on the ground to digital trenches. Framed by a timely Trump speech at West Point, the episode explores the "battle space" of 2025: a multi-domain war for hearts, minds, and sovereignty. Together, they dig into the drops as a psychological operation, discuss the morale impact of Trump's rhetoric, examine how trust and action interplay in fifth-gen warfare, and break down the role of digital soldiers in a rapidly shifting info war. With passion, humor, and clarity, Alpha and B.B. urge listeners to ask the big questions: What is your mission? What phase of the battle are we in? And how do we stop being passive observers and start becoming mission-driven participants in the Great Awakening? A tour de force for anyone navigating the fog of narrative war.

In Episode 356 of Devolution Power Hour, Jon Herold and Burning Bright unpack Trump's jaw-dropping Oval Office confrontation with South African President Cyril Ramaphosa, where Trump rolls out footage of violent anti-white rhetoric and attacks on farmers, forcing the world to confront the genocide debate in real time. The hosts analyze the media's panicked response, the theatrical deployment of “content president” optics, and the geopolitical strategy behind Trump's maneuver. They then expand into the broader battle space, questioning Trump's continued engagement with legacy media while dismantling the illusion of their legitimacy. The conversation spans the controlled retreat of the press, the AutoPen pardon scandal, Biden's cognitive decline, and Trump's narrative inversion that subtly delegitimizes the Biden presidency, while showing him unexpected sympathy. Also on deck: Israel's ongoing Gaza operations, Tim Pool and Charlie Kirk's media gatekeeping, Theo Von's unexpected Gaza statement, and General Steve Kwast's long-overdue mainstream exposure. With biting humor and razor-sharp insights, the episode underscores why independent media, narrative control, and truth-telling, on energy, war, and elections, are more important than ever in the twilight of the old world order.

In Episode 117 of Badlands Story Hour, Chris Paul and Burning Bright unpack The Apprentice, the 2024 film dramatizing Donald Trump's early years under the mentorship of Roy Cohn. The hosts analyze the movie's intent and narrative schizophrenia, how it veers from a surprisingly nuanced portrayal of Trump's ambition to a late-stage character assassination filled with unsubstantiated allegations. They explore the film's core theme: Trump as a Frankenstein's monster molded by the dark political arts of Roy Cohn, and they discuss whether Hollywood inadvertently humanized Trump in the process. Roy Cohn's infamous three rules, never apologize, hit back ten times harder, and never admit you're wrong, serve as a springboard for a broader conversation on morality, lawfare, and narrative warfare. Chris and Burning tackle topics like the ethics of blackmail, the psychological purpose of shame, and Trump's mastery of narrative manipulation as a counterspell to the media matrix. With cultural, spiritual, and geopolitical insights layered throughout, this is a razor-sharp dissection of how fiction attempts to frame truth, and how Donald Trump remains an enigma even in Hollywood's hands.

In Episode 22 of The Narrative, Burning Bright welcomes Ghost for a sweeping breakdown of Trump's recent Middle East “Gulf Tour”, a trip the hosts frame as both a declaration of victory and a signal of a new sovereign alliance. They compare Trump's visits to Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the UAE to his 2017 trip, unpacking how this time marks a pivot from covert alignment to overt declarations of friendship, investment, and shared vision for a post-globalist world. The duo dives deep into Trump's powerful Riyadh speech, the symbolism of Middle Eastern ceremony, Qatar's geopolitical transformation, and how the Abraham Accords are setting the stage for a generational peace. Also featured are breakdowns of Syria's “jihadist in a suit” leadership, the inversion of mainstream narratives, a lithium-powered energy transition, and what Ghost sees as a strategic trap for Netanyahu and the neocon apparatus. This is narrative warfare on a global scale, told like only these two can.

In this sweeping episode of Devolution Power Hour, Jon Herold and Burning Bright dig into the geopolitical and narrative shifts defining Trump's second term. They begin with Trump's masterful Saudi Arabia speech, interpreting it as both a strategic declaration and a roadmap for global realignment. The hosts explore the rise of the “sovereign alliance”, a growing bloc of nationalist-led nations turning away from the globalist order, and unpack Iran's surprising offer to sign a nuclear agreement if the U.S. ditches Netanyahu's influence. They dissect the quiet trade deal with China, revealing how Trump and Xi secretly negotiated economic rebalancing while maintaining the illusion of public hostility, trapping both the media and the Fed in their own lies. They argue Trump is staging a peaceful, constitutional hostile takeover, aligning with founding principles to dismantle a captured U.S. government without firing a shot. From the restructuring of the National Security Council and the fading relevance of Congress, to the narrative inversion of historical allies and enemies, Herold and Bright make the case that we've entered a new phase of the info war: the Sovereign Siege. It's tactical, psychological, and unstoppable, and they're calling the shots as it unfolds.

In this mind-bending episode of Badlands Story Hour, Burning Bright and Chris Paul dive deep into the Oscar-winning multiverse epic Everything Everywhere All at Once, unpacking its frenetic chaos, cultural subtext, and the profoundly human themes buried beneath its absurdist surface. Despite initial skepticism, mocking what they assumed to be another Hollywood morality lecture wrapped in wokewash, the hosts find themselves surprised by the film's emotional core and moralist message. They dissect the film's commentary on nihilism, family breakdown, systemic dysfunction, and the desperate search for meaning in a collapsing world. Michelle Yeoh's Evelyn is a tragic heroine who finds redemption not through superhero powers but through compassion, presence, and the quiet strength of choosing love over despair. Chris and Burning explore how Evelyn's immigrant experience and generational trauma mirror cultural clashes between East and West, modernity and tradition, duty and individuality. The discussion turns philosophical and personal, with reflections on multiverse theory, the illusion of infinite choice, and the spiritual consequences of postmodern storytelling. From Waymond's underestimated wisdom to Joy's doomer spiral, the film becomes a lens through which the hosts examine relationships, regret, and the modern obsession with alternate paths and lost potential. With humor, insight, and just enough sarcasm, Story Hour transforms what could have been a Hollywood write-off into a meaningful meditation on what it means to truly matter. The verdict? “The universe may be a bagel, but there's still something worth fighting for in the center.” Next week's pick: The Apprentice, a film about Trump's early years with Roy Cohn. Tune in for a very different kind of multiverse.

In Episode 21 of The Narrative, Burning Bright is joined by CannCon for a wide-ranging, deeply analytical, and often hilarious breakdown of Trump's strategic deployment of controversial ideas designed to force both sides of the political spectrum into uncomfortable truths. Dubbed “Trump's Quicksand,” this episode explores how narrative traps, on issues like eliminating federal income tax, recognizing Palestine, and taxing billionaires, are reshaping the political battlefield. The duo takes a hard look at the evolution of Trump's tactics in 2025, examining how his actions blur ideological lines, fracture neocon loyalty, and lure even leftists into tacit agreement on key populist policies. CannCon shares insights from covering daily news and discusses how MAGA, normie conservatives, and even liberals are being forced to reassess long-held positions. They also tackle media collapse, the fading influence of characters like Morning Joe, the future of habeas corpus, and the absurd reactions from both left and right to Trump's appointments and endorsements. From Anna Paulina Luna's narrative utility to the weaponized deployment of “no tax on tips,” the episode is packed with macro-level analysis and micro-level story dissection. With plenty of hockey banter, personal anecdotes, and a sobering critique of military glamorization, The Narrative once again proves it's not just about headlines, it's about the deeper game being played underneath.

From there, they pivot to Trump's cryptic “earth-shattering” announcement, analyzing whether it's a calculated trade move, a strategic peace deal, or a geopolitical pressure play. They explore the pincer movement between the U.S. and China aimed at squeezing the Federal Reserve, the symbolic implications of renaming the Persian Gulf, and how Trump's rhetoric is subtly reshaping alliances across the Middle East. With references to Nazi symbolism, Victory Day proclamations, and the narrative inversion of Ukraine and Israel, the hosts make the case that we're witnessing the unraveling of the post-WWII order.

In this mind-bending episode of Badlands Story Hour, Chris Paul and Burning Bright dissect the 1998 cult classic Dark City, unpacking its layers of metaphysical allegory, postmodern reality construction, and infowar symbolism. The hosts explore the film's eerie parallels to our own false-reality existence, where truth is hidden behind collective memory and controlled narratives. They contrast the movie's portrayal of manipulated realities with today's psyops, election fraud, and the COVID narrative, warning against “limited hangouts” and half-truths that keep people trapped in intellectual loops. From postmodernism and nihilism to the cathedral and control systems beyond it, they tie the film's themes to everything from cloud seeding to Tartaria to the Q drops. They highlight how questioning, rather than asserting, leads to awakening, and how breaking through cognitive dissonance is key to escaping the maze. With nods to Socratic dialogue, mind mapping, and parallel systems, the episode ends with a call to build new realities from first principles and spiritual truth. It's a dense, philosophical, and at times darkly comedic exploration of one of the most underrated red-pill movies ever made.

They explore whether the film's fantastical underworld represents an escape from fascist tyranny or a more disturbing inversion of reality itself. Through sharp cultural analysis, the hosts dissect the film's mythic structure, its use of fairy tale tropes, and how the character of Ophelia reflects themes of trauma, imagination, and innocence under siege. The discussion expands to the archetype of the "moon child," grooming symbolism hidden in plain sight, and how Del Toro's narrative subtly parallels elite abuses of power. They contrast collectivist propaganda with true sovereignty and debate whether myth and imagination offer liberation—or another trap.

Kicking off with a dive into the mainstream media's desperate attempts to frame the UFC as a hotbed of “deplorable” masculinity, the hosts explore how the promotion's unapologetically anti-woke ethos has made it a narrative battleground, and why Trump's walk-ins at events hit harder than any punch in the octagon. From there, they shift into economic brinkmanship, trade war chess, and Trump's masterful narrative manipulation using tariffs as leverage. The hosts dissect a flurry of global developments, from Putin's strategic “capitulation” in Ukraine (which aligns eerily well with Trump's three-year-old peace plan) to Europe's economic collapse and the populist uprising it's igniting. They also unravel the deeper meaning of what it takes to wage narrative warfare, questioning whether we're watching a scripted resolution or an ongoing, real battle against rogue state actors. And yes, they roast the idea of Bill Maher and the establishment media taking a redemption lap, labeling it a tactical "hibernation" strategy to outlast Trump and sneak back into relevance.

The conversation begins with an analysis of the film's two-act structure, boot camp and battlefield, and how Kubrick uses it to depict not just the horrors of war, but the system that transforms human beings into tools of violence. Chris and BB explore the concept of dehumanization, especially through the lens of Gomer Pyle and Project 100,000, McNamara's Vietnam-era program to funnel low-IQ recruits into combat. From there, they dive into the eerie symbolism of the film's final scene, the infamous sniper reveal, and the cultural conditioning that primes entire generations for conflict. The discussion widens to cover controlled opposition, narrative traps, the media's role in manufacturing consent, and how the same war machine now operates across Ukraine, Gaza, and the information sphere. They contrast Kubrick's cinematic truth-telling with today's hyperreality, where war is not just sold through propaganda but produced as entertainment.

In a wide-ranging Easter edition of The Narrative, Burning Bright and Ashe in America fuse the metaphysical with the geopolitical, weaving together Lord of the Rings lore, narrative warfare, and the slow collapse of the Prussian-engineered global control system. Kicking off with Tolkien as a metaphor for the infowar, Ashe and Bright explore how myth, prophecy, and fiction offer deep parallels to real-world manipulation, and how narrative itself can serve as both weapon and shield. They dissect “chaos theory” not just as math, but as strategy, where Trump's flood-the-zone approach and narrative traps are forcing the deep state into a perpetual retreat. They dive into the psychological energy war behind modern lawfare, immigration propaganda, and the use of NGOs and global finance to manufacture crises and control outcomes. Whether it's Ms-13 deportation optics or David Becker's flailing election panics, every move in this 3-act structure is designed to deprogram the public and restore sovereignty. From the invisible enemy of COVID to the lingering specter of Prussia, they examine how the heirs of a decaying system are failing to maintain its illusion of power. Meanwhile, Trump, they argue, is deploying a carefully orchestrated chaos, not to destabilize, but to expose and dismantle the system's predictive power. With powerful insights into AI, narrative archetypes, consent-based governance, and what it really means to be on a watchlist, this episode is a masterclass in narrative engineering. Part Tolkien, part CIA breakdown, part spiritual reset...this one's got it all. And next week, they promise to take it even further with a deep dive into morality narratives.

The duo dives deep into Trump's 125% tariff strike against China, unpacking how this move is not just about trade, but about forcing a global realignment. They reveal how over 75 nations are now rushing to the table to strike “bespoke” trade deals, effectively isolating China and trapping it in an economic pincer movement. Scott Bessent's economic strategy and the public narrative around “surrounding China” is dissected with precision, as Herold and Bright explore whether this is a true trade war, or a coordinated decoupling effort with Xi himself. From bond market anomalies and treasury yield chaos to Main Street vs. Wall Street dynamics, the hosts propose that Trump may be gaming the Federal Reserve into lowering interest rates, using tariff pressure, asset repositioning, and even China's own moves against it. They also question whether all these global deals have already been made behind the scenes...and we're just watching the theatrical rollout. In the second half, they shift focus to the CNN article on Trump's dismantling of Obama-era election infrastructure. With CISA gutted, DHS funding pulled, and election security networks disbanded, they argue that Trump is not just “fortifying” 2024, he's surgically removing the entire rigged narrative scaffolding erected since 2016. They bring receipts from Trump's executive order, comment on Chris Krebs' nervous media appearances, and explore why the media is warning of chaos in 2025.

From George C. Scott's unforgettable portrayal of the larger-than-life general to the subversive undertones of spectacle and staged heroism, the hosts examine whether Patton was a real warrior or a crafted psyop, and why the answer might be both. They break down how Patton blurs the line between soldier and symbol, drawing uncanny parallels to modern figures like Donald Trump and Elon Musk, and questioning the nature of heroism in a world driven by narrative manipulation. Along the way, they discuss reincarnation, globalist agenda-setting, the use of wartime theater to shape public consciousness, and the neocon rebranding of American power post-WWII. With incisive commentary, philosophical insights, and a healthy dose of historical revisionism, Chris and BB show how Patton serves not just as a portrait of a man, but as a mirror for a regime willing to write its own legend at any cost. A must-listen for anyone who wants to understand the true nature of war, propaganda, and power.

In true OnlyLands fashion, chaos reigns as a rotating cast of Badlands Media hosts, including Ashe in America, Ghost, Burning Bright, Alpha, Jon Herold, and Zak "RedPill78" Pain, tear into politics, parenting, propaganda, and whatever else crosses their minds. This episode kicks off with spicy commentary on Rep. Anna Paulina Luna's grandstanding, fake task forces, and baby-in-arms stunts that shut down Congress. But the show quickly spirals into hilariously dark territory: from IRS tax pain and overpriced government furniture, to CDC-branded $240k picnic tables and Wayfair-level laundering jokes. There's also a solid dose of actual intel, like Tulsi Gabbard's new ODNI task force and China's real human rights violations—before the crew dives into rants about teething babies, AI ice cubes, transgender propaganda, and… Thai ladyboys. A lot about ladyboys. The cast debates the “I didn't know” defense, shares awkward gym encounters, and explores whether tariffs apply to gender confusion abroad. Unfiltered, unscripted, and dangerously funny, OnlyLands delivers two hours of satire, side quests, and occasionally profound commentary that will leave you thinking...and possibly canceled.
