Podcast appearances and mentions of Chris Paul

Burning Bright and Chris Paul dig into Godzilla Minus One, Takashi Yamazaki's striking 2023 take on the iconic monster. At first, the film feels like a standard kaiju entry, but it soon unfolds into a powerful character study and meditation on postwar Japan. The hosts break down Shikishima's arc from cowardice to redemption, drawing parallels between his personal journey and Japan's struggle with honor, shame, and survival in the shadow of humiliation. They highlight Yamazaki's stunning visual effects, achieved on a fraction of a Hollywood budget, and the film's refusal to explain away Godzilla—embracing him instead as a force of nature and a metaphor for existential threats. From kamikaze culture and engineered narratives to the lingering scars of national identity and the dangers of nihilism, Burning Bright and Chris Paul unpack why Godzilla Minus One resonates beyond its setting, offering lessons for sovereignty, resilience, and the fight against dehumanizing systems. A thoughtful and timely discussion that elevates a monster movie into a commentary on civilization itself.

Jon Herold and Chris Paul dive into the aftermath of Charlie Kirk's assassination, unpacking the layers of psyops, media manipulation, and consensus coercion shaping the public response. They question the official narrative, explore the use of trauma events as tools of psychological warfare, and highlight how influencers on both the left and right are funneled into controlled opposition. From Kash Patel's controversial role to Trump's carefully timed statements, the hosts dissect the optics, cover pieces, and public reactions driving division and compliance. They challenge listeners to resist emotional manipulation, recognize the patterns of information war, and avoid falling into the traps of fear, censorship, and false unity.

CannCon and Chris Paul open the show by reflecting on the Codex 9/11 premiere and how public trauma events, from 9/11 to the assassination of Charlie Kirk, are weaponized to control narratives. They dissect the FBI's evidence against 22-year-old Tyler Robinson, raising questions about timelines, missing rifles, and suspicious footage, while stressing America's “zero trust environment” where official stories rarely add up. The hosts compare Kirk's murder to historical assassinations, explore media spin, and call out attempts to weaponize anger into violence. They also highlight Secret Service lapses, including a missed Glock at Trump's golf club, and debate the larger information war being waged through psyops. From Epstein's lingering networks to Iran's crippled nuclear program, Kamala Harris's new book, and even bizarre cartel-like violence in Dallas, this episode blends skepticism, cultural analysis, and warnings about manipulation, urging listeners to think critically, resist demoralization, and stay focused on the bigger battle.

We tackle Chris Paul's “floor general” approach to offense and the pros and cons of how he pressured defenses (and his turnover suppression). Also, how did he change defensively from 2008 in New Orleans to his Clippers tenure? Where does he rank among small defenders? Then we make sense of Kawhi Leonard's historic scoring numbers and shooting, and the surprising heights of his team's offenses, along with his fluctuating defensive signals. Support at www.patreon.com/thinkingbasketball

Chris Paul and Burning Bright take on M. Night Shyamalan's Split, unpacking its psychological horror and deeper symbolic layers. They highlight James McAvoy's performance as Kevin Wendell Crumb and his 23 personalities, drawing parallels to narrative warfare and how media offers different “alters” of the same central message. The hosts dive into the good twin/evil twin dynamic, centralization versus decentralization, and how propaganda thrives on consensus while truth does not. Their discussion branches into Trump's communication style, trauma as both a weapon and a source of resilience, and how cultural manipulation echoes MK Ultra–style conditioning. They also examine connections to modern gender debates, linking the “they/them” identity to collectivism versus sovereignty, and the biblical concept of Legion as hive-minded evil. Closing thoughts tie Casey's survival, rooted in her scars and trauma, to humanity's antifragility and the danger of weaponized victimhood. This episode blends film critique, philosophy, and cultural analysis, showing how Split serves as a metaphor for narrative control, sovereignty, and the battle between good and evil.

https://teachhoops.com/ What's up, basketball fans, and welcome back to "Court Vision." Today, we're diving into a topic that doesn't always show up on the stat sheet but is absolutely critical to winning championships: leadership. When you think of a team leader, your mind might jump to the superstar who drops 30 points a night, the one hitting the game-winning shot. And while that's part of it, true on-court leadership runs so much deeper. It's the player who communicates on defense, who knows when to calm the team down during a chaotic moment, and who isn't afraid to hold everyone, including themselves, accountable. Think of players like Draymond Green or Chris Paul—their value isn't just in their individual stats, but in their ability to elevate the entire team's performance and basketball IQ. They are the coach on the floor, the extension of the game plan, and the glue that holds a team together through the highs and lows of a long season. Host: But leadership isn't a monolith; it comes in all shapes and sizes. You have the vocal, fiery leaders—the Michael Jordans and Kevin Garnetts of the world—who lead with intense passion and demand the absolute best from their teammates through sheer force of will. Their energy is infectious and can ignite a team. On the flip side, you have the quiet, stoic leaders like Tim Duncan or Kawhi Leonard, who lead by example. They aren't going to be the loudest guys in the huddle, but their relentless work ethic, consistency, and calm demeanor under pressure provide a steadying force for the entire organization. Neither style is inherently better than the other; the most effective leadership is often the one that best fits the team's personality and meets the moment, proving that you don't need to be the loudest voice in the room to have the biggest impact.

Jon Herold and Chris Paul fight through hotel Wi-Fi and post-golf exhaustion to tackle a whirlwind of stories. They dive into Mike Johnson's claim that Trump once acted as an FBI informant against Epstein, parsing out the difference between Epstein's real crimes and the “Epstein files hoax” aimed at smearing Trump. The conversation turns to John Durham, with bizarre claims from ex-CIA official Suzanne Miller that she was secretly charged with “insurrection”, a story with no legal record but plenty of intrigue. From there, the hosts dissect a New York Times report of a failed 2019 SEAL Team 6 mission in North Korea, questioning its plausibility and timing in relation to Trump's peace talks with Kim Jong Un. They wrap with election battles in Georgia, MTG's push for federal investigations into Fulton County, and Trump's narrative moves on foreign leaders and sovereign alliances. Blending humor, speculation, and sharp analysis, this episode threads lawfare, geopolitics, and psyops into the ongoing devolution narrative.

Zak Paine, Jaytriot, Jonathan Drake, Chris Paul, and Cam Cooksey swap stories ranging from California's collapse to whip-cracking at Deadwood. They dig into housing costs, DEI rot in industry, and the rats behind America's food supply, mixing hard truths with wild humor. The conversation shifts into politics with Trump's rumored FBI informant role in the Epstein saga, Tim Kaine's claim that rights come from government (and Ted Cruz's rebuttal), and Florida Surgeon General Joe Ladapo's stand against vaccine mandates. Movie reviews, Soft Disclosure ad spots, and listener banter round out the night, proving once again why Friday nights on OnlyLands feel like hanging with family, if your family swears, laughs, and dismantles propaganda for fun.

CannCon and Chris Paul open this Friday edition with Trump's latest Truth Social post blasting the Epstein “hoax” and pivot into Biden's crumbling legitimacy as new memos reveal Kamala Harris often approved pardons in his place, with auto-pen signatures raising constitutional questions. They dissect the Democrats' color revolution playbook, Trump's strategy to go scorched earth on both parties after the midterms, and the establishment's unraveling. The episode then shifts to Trump's kinetic strike on Venezuelan traffickers, exploring its implications for cartels, sovereignty, and the global regime's drug networks. From there, the hosts cover Trump's order to rename the Department of Defense back to the Department of War, RFK Jr.'s blistering Senate testimony exposing CDC failures and chronic disease rates, and Bernie Sanders' call for campaign finance reform. Other highlights include John Bolton's FBI raid, CEFC-Hunter Biden ties, and the 11th Circuit blocking the shutdown of “Alligator Alcatraz.” With sharp analysis, humor, and a barrage of breaking stories, this episode captures the chaos and turning tides of the week.

Chris Paul and Burning Bright dive into Sofia Coppola's Lost in Translation, unpacking its themes of alienation, paradigm shifts, and fleeting human connection. They explore Bill Murray and Scarlett Johansson's unlikely bond in Tokyo, debating whether the film's ambiguity makes it profound or pretentious. The hosts tackle Coppola's directing choices, the infamous opening shot, and the controversy of Johansson's age during filming, weighing how Hollywood's “male gaze” and art-house ambitions collide. From existential dread to pseudo-intellectual musings, they contrast Murray's weathered perspective with Johansson's youthful searching, examining how both characters project fantasies of freedom while feeling trapped in different ways. Along the way, they connect the film's commentary on identity and artifice to the decline of the modern movie star, social media overexposure, and Hollywood's struggle to create new icons. The episode closes with reflections on ambiguous endings, fantasy vs. reality, and next week's pick, M. Night Shyamalan's Split. It's a thoughtful, critical, and often humorous exploration of a movie that lingers long after the credits roll.

We're calling out the BIGGEST FRAUDS ever — from Chris Paul's overrated career, to overhyped European basketball players who fold under real pressure, to the ultimate lie: did NASA even land on the moon, or was it the biggest scam in history?

From there, the hosts explore the Supreme Court fight over Trump's tariff powers, what it reveals about congressional authority, and how national emergencies expand presidential reach.

They then shift to geopolitics and economics, covering Trump's clever play on Chinese student visas, Nvidia's deal to pay the U.S. government for China chip sales, and how America is decoupling from globalist dependencies. From Kamala Harris' fundraising flop and lost Secret Service detail, to Exxon's quiet talks with Russia and AI-driven cybercrime, the episode delivers sharp analysis, skepticism, and humor all the way to the close.

Burning Bright and Chris Paul break down Andrew Niccol's dystopian thriller In Time, where life itself is currency and timekeepers rule like central bankers. They explore the film's on-the-nose parallels to fiat money, inflation, usury, and the Cantillon Effect, comparing its “time chain” to Bitcoin's fixed protocol. The hosts connect themes of Darwinism, generational wisdom, and the emptiness of immortality to broader cultural critiques, highlighting how elites manipulate scarcity to control society. From Occupy Wall Street echoes to Trump's populist judo flips, they frame the movie as both a cautionary tale and a mirror to our financial and political systems. With sharp insights, humor, and plenty of rabbit holes, from diamonds to decentralization, this episode shows why In Time still resonates as a metaphor for the theft of human energy and purpose.

Hosted by Jon Herold and Chris Paul, this Saturday edition of Devolution Power Hour takes on some of the most explosive stories shaking the narrative battlefield.

They explore John Durham's quiet investigation into FBI leaks, Bill Barr's defense of his timing, and what it all means for the much-rumored RICO case. From Trump calling the Epstein narrative a hoax, to Bolton's raid, to the Pentagon blocking Ukraine's long-range missile strikes, Jon and Chris cut through propaganda to question how controlled opposition and psyops keep shaping our perception of reality. With sharp analysis, humor, and a few side detours into fantasy football and protein bars, this episode keeps listeners on their toes while hammering home the need to question every narrative.

The hosts unpack Malick's unique storytelling style, the dreamlike cinematography, and how the film juxtaposes innocence with violence. Along the way, they discuss the performances of Martin Sheen and Sissy Spacek, the sparse yet impactful dialogue, and the ways the film challenges viewers to question morality, influence, and the romanticizing of outlaws. It's a layered conversation that connects the movie's themes to broader cultural narratives, making this episode as thought-provoking as the film itself.
