Zo is on one of his visits to the National Gallery of Art looking at beautiful artifacts found all over the world. Where are these things found and what ordeal does one go through to collect these priceless treasures? Zo imagines that it would take people with considerable resources, knowledge and grit. He had once read about a famed archeologist who risked life and limb and journeyed to the four corners of the Earth in order to retrieve forgotten treasures in an effort to share his finds with the citizens of the world. Through these artifacts he hoped to enrich the lives of everyday people and teach them about far flung cultures and lost civilizations. There was even a rumor that this archologist nearly lost his life looking for the actual Holy Grail, and that this distinguished gentleman, Dr. Henry Jones, Sr. was saved from death by the efforts of his son, a renowned archeologist in his own right, and their mutual friends. Though Dr. Jones, Sr. named his only son after himself, his son never appreciated the moniker of "Junior" and would rather be known as "Indiana" Jones and this was their last crusade.

Many Bible critics, influenced by evolutionary beliefs, treat the Bible as a flawed human document and claim to find errors in its historical accounts. However, archaeological discoveries—such as the existence of the Hittites and early presence of the Ammonites—have repeatedly confirmed the Bible's accuracy.

Prince Andrew's settlement with Virginia Roberts Giuffre, announced in February 2022, marked a significant moment in the fallout from Jeffrey Epstein's sex trafficking scandal. Giuffre, who accused Andrew of sexually abusing her when she was a teenager, had filed a civil lawsuit in the United States. Despite years of public denials, including a disastrous BBC interview in which Andrew claimed to have no memory of meeting Giuffre, the prince agreed to an out-of-court settlement reportedly worth several million dollars. This agreement avoided a public trial, sparking widespread criticism that Andrew used his wealth and privilege to sidestep accountability. The settlement, though not an admission of guilt, reinforced perceptions that Andrew prioritized damage control over confronting the allegations directly.Critics argue that Andrew's decision to settle further tarnished his reputation and that of the British royal family. The settlement came with no public acknowledgment of wrongdoing, leaving lingering questions about the prince's involvement with Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell's network. The financial payout also fueled resentment, with many pointing out that Andrew, stripped of his royal duties and titles, appeared desperate to preserve what remained of his public standing. By avoiding a trial, Andrew missed an opportunity to clear his name through transparent legal proceedings, deepening public skepticism. The entire affair underscores the broader issue of how the powerful often evade genuine accountability, leaving victims and the public dissatisfied with a system that appears skewed in favor of the elite.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

The Federal Government has struck a $400 million deal with Nauru that it says paves the way for deportation of the so-called NZYQ cohort. The announcement has been met with outrage from advocates, human rights lawyers, and the Greens. Critics say the deal threatens fundamental legal rights in ways that could be applied more broadly.
News and Updates: Microsoft's Windows chief Pavan Davuluri says the next version of Windows—possibly Windows 12—will be an “ambient, multi-modal” OS powered by AI. Voice will become a primary input alongside keyboard and mouse, with context-aware features that understand what's on your screen. Microsoft calls it an “agentic AI” future, blending local and cloud compute, though privacy concerns loom. Excel is testing a new =COPILOT() AI function that lets users type natural language prompts instead of formulas. Microsoft warns not to use it for any task requiring accuracy—like math, finance, or compliance—since results may be wrong. Critics say this undermines Excel's core purpose and could erode real spreadsheet skills. President Trump announced that Intel has agreed to give the US government a 10% stake—worth about $10B—through a mix of CHIPS Act funds and direct investment. The deal aims to secure domestic chipmaking but gives the US no board influence. Democrats are questioning legality, while Trump floated possible 300% tariffs on foreign semiconductors to further boost Intel against TSMC and Samsung.

In the U.S., a national push to reform K-12 education through policy and law changes is gaining momentum, driven by organizations, NGOs, and lobbyists. This movement is notably propelled by the SIECUS initiative, originally established in 1964 to promote comprehensive sex education. SIECUS has evolved, promoting sex education as a vehicle for broad cultural shifts towards sexual and reproductive freedoms. Their "Sex Ed for Social Change" campaign aims to influence societal norms and rights related to sexual health by integrating these lessons into school curriculums. Critics argue that this approach promotes a liberal agenda, extending beyond education to include broader social influences. Sex Ed For Social Change RebrandThe campaign has led to a significant rise in legislative actions with SIECUS at the helm of the Sex Education Policy Action Council (SEPAC), collaborating with various state entities to propagate comprehensive sex education policies. This coordinated effort seeks to increase the adoption of these policies at all levels of government and boost the number of policymakers supportive of comprehensive sex education.Despite the advocacy for educational and social change, there has been a notable backlash with a marked increase in parental rights bills and restrictive legislation concerning sexual and reproductive health education. This resistance highlights a growing divide over the role of education in shaping societal values and the rights of parents in overseeing their children's education. The battle lines are drawn as both sides mobilize to shape the future cultural landscape through the educational system.Support the showIf you need assistance with a situation in your area, please fill out our free consultation form.DONATE TODAY!www.ParentsRightsInEducation.com
Five years ago, style and image consultant Kevin Samuels became an internet sensation for his advice on relationships, dating, fashion, and success in life. He was controversial—brash, often chiding people for their looks and what he regarded as unrealistic dating expectations, and not hesitant to put people down in the process. One of his most well-known concepts was the “high-value man,” defined by qualities like making at least $10K per month for several years, having group acceptance, belonging to a network of other high-value men, being visible in one's profession, and being in high demand. Samuels also emphasized appearance— height, build, and dress. Critics have rightly pointed out that his view reduces a man's worth to his salary and status, ignoring character, integrity, responsibility, and spirituality. The Bible says, “Man looks at the outer appearance, but God looks at the heart.” Being a high-value man is not about cars, clothes, and cash, but about character, consciousness, and conviction. It's about who has the man, not what the man has. In Judges 3:31, we meet Shamgar, an often overlooked judge of Israel, whose one- verse story shows us what it truly means to be a high-value man.

01:02:09 – Shooter's Demonic Diary The Minneapolis church shooter's writings reveal regret over being trans, self-brainwashing, and violent fantasies. Media figures like Jake Tapper tie themselves in knots over pronouns while ignoring the manifesto's satanic themes. 01:10:15 – Stephen King Defends Trans Shooter King dismisses transgender ideology as a factor, blaming guns instead. Hosts argue the real problem is cultural rot, demonic influence, and a clear pattern of trans-linked shootings disproportionately targeting Christians. 01:16:07 – Psaki Mocks Prayer After Massacre Former White House press secretary Jen Psaki derides “thoughts and prayers” after Christian children are gunned down, sparking backlash. The commentary argues school shootings increased precisely because prayer was removed from schools. 01:27:29 – SSRIs and Mass Killings RFK Jr. calls for a probe into antidepressants. Studies and 7,000+ case reports show SSRIs linked to homicidal ideation, murder-suicides, and violent psychosis, especially among trans-identified youth already under institutional grooming pressures. 01:58:23 – Church Security and Great Replacement Closing segment pivots from the massacre to broader concerns: failures of Catholic school security, migrant violence, and reckless foreign truck drivers in Tennessee. Framed as part of the “great replacement” and systemic government negligence. 02:01:50 – Red Flags vs. Black Labels Commentary slams gun control hypocrisy, arguing the real threat isn't lawful gun owners but SSRI drugs causing homicidal ideation. Instead of “red flag” laws, America needs warning “black labels” on dangerous pharmaceuticals. 02:13:00 – Foreign Trucking Crisis An Indian driver, drunk and barreling the wrong way across Memphis in an 18-wheeler, highlights a growing crisis: poorly vetted foreign truckers with California licenses endangering Americans nationwide. The DOT is accused of negligence. 02:21:17 – Illegal Alien Maserati Crash In Nashville, an illegal Honduran with a revoked status and prior convictions drove a Maserati drunk, killing and injuring Americans. Framed as part of the “Great Replacement,” where foreign criminals are protected while citizens suffer. 02:25:12 – Walmart's H-1B Visa Scam Scandal erupts as Walmart fires 1,200 tech contractors amid allegations of a $30,000-per-day kickback scheme tied to H-1B visas. Critics say corporate elites use foreign labor to gut the American middle class. 02:48:20 – Python Wars & Brain Chips Florida deploys $4,000 “robot rabbits” to lure invasive Burmese pythons destroying wildlife, while China advances brain-computer interface programs for totalitarian control. Both framed as government-backed “solutions” that could spiral into bigger dangers. 03:05:33 – India's War on Christianity India passes radical anti-conversion laws allowing life in prison for sharing the Gospel, framed as “freedom of religion” amendments. Critics say Tulsi Gabbard's ties to Modi's party expose the hypocrisy and danger for Christians worldwide. 03:08:00 – Same-Sex Marriage Reconsidered Discussion of Obergefell resurfaces, with Clarence Thomas signaling it rests on the same shaky legal ground as Roe v. Wade. Marriage redefinition is framed as a state power grab that undermines children's rights to their biological parents. 03:16:38 – GOP Support for Gay Marriage Collapses Republican support for same-sex marriage drops sharply since 2021. Panelists call for conservatives to finally “conserve something,” noting Trump and Melania openly celebrated LGBT policies despite presenting themselves as cultural defenders. 03:21:43 – Law Without Moral Foundation Debate over “substantive due process” shows how courts manufactured rights like abortion and gay marriage. The commentary insists law requires a moral foundation, warning against turning children into state-owned commodities. 03:53:18 – Peter Thiel's Tech Bilderberg Peter Thiel launches “Dialogue,” a secretive DC-based club for tech elites, Treasury officials, and politicians (including Tulsi Gabbard & Ted Cruz). Framed as a “Bilderberg 2.0,” critics say it's a transhumanist push to eliminate AI regulation.

Bible Prophecy Under the Microscope-Episode 55 Gary discusses the myth of "replacement theology." Critics claim that certain Christians are claiming that the Church "replaces" Israel in God's plan for the world. This is wrong historically, logically, and most importantly, theologically. Gary explains why in great depth with actual Bible passages.

An anthropologist and a psychiatrist weigh in on “AI psychosis,” following several recent, high-profile cases of users losing touch with reality during conversations with bots. The summer COVID spike is here, but new FDA vaccine restrictions limit who can get a booster, and CDC turmoil impacts U.S. public health policy. Critics review the latest film releases: “Caught Stealing,” “The Roses,” “The Toxic Avenger,” and “A Little Prayer.” Finger clapping — touching your thumb and middle finger together in a form of silent applause — may seem like a hot new thing on TikTok. But the queer ballroom scene has been doing it for years.
Changes in RLDS Succession Last Spring, John Hamer gave a monumental address about RLDS succession at the JWHA Meetings that literally changed RLDS History. Pres-prophet Steven Veazey had announced his pending retirement in 2 years and said he would choose a successor. John argued in his address that if Veazey did so, it would make his presidency illegitimate as well as whoever he picked. So, the process was changed as a result of his address. He'll give more details. Check out our conversation... https://youtu.be/2rQnCWIYxqE John is the co-author of Scattering of the Saints: Schism Within Mormonism. Don't miss our other episodes with John Hamer! https://gospeltangents.com/people/john-hamer/ Copyright © 2025 Gospel Tangents All Rights Reserved From Monarchical Tendencies to a "Prophetic People" Historically, leadership in the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (RLDS), now Community of Christ, was heavily influenced by the Joseph Smith lineage. Joseph Smith III's succession, recognized by the General Conference (World Conference), established two pillars of legitimacy: appointment by the predecessor and the "royal line" of Joseph Smith, which was seen as holy according to the Book of Mormon. William Smith, brother of Joseph Smith, actively promoted the idea of a Smith "royal seed," drawing parallels to James, the brother of Jesus, leading the early Christian church. However, this tradition soon saw shifts. Joseph III's son, Frederick M. Smith, introduced the concept of "supreme directional control," concentrating power in the First Presidency, which he led. This led to significant internal conflicts, including the resignation of the entire Presiding Bishopric and the departure of prominent figures like R.C. Evans, who felt sidelined despite his own aspirations for leadership. The Smith lineage continued through Joseph III's sons until Wallace B. Smith, a grandson, took the helm. He was a "progressive leader" who, in 1984, initiated the end of priesthood discrimination based on gender (D&C 156), a move that led to schism within the church as "restorationist" groups broke away. Importantly, Wallace B. Smith broke from the Smith lineage tradition by appointing a non-Smith, W. Grant McMurray, as his successor. Grant McMurray's tenure marked another pivotal shift. In D&C 162, he articulated a vision of the church as a "prophetic people, not just a people with a prophet," introducing a new pillar of legitimacy that emphasized discernment and input from the wider church body. This concept challenged the previous monarchical tendencies and opened the door for more democratic forms of leadership. Crisis and Controversy: The Kirtland Temple Sale and Succession Plans Grant McMurray's abrupt resignation in 2004, without appointing a successor, created a succession crisis, effectively breaking the chain of appointment. In response, a special World Conference was called, and the First Presidency assigned the Council of Twelve Apostles to choose the next prophet, who turned out to be Steve Veazey. Steve Veazey's 20-year presidency, however, was marked by significant financial struggles for the church, leading to an "unmitigated decline". This culminated in the controversial sale of the historic Kirtland Temple for less than $200 million. Critics, including historian John Hamer, argued that the sale was conducted "in secret" and for "a pittance," insufficient for the church's long-term financial sustainability. The World Conference had previously required a revelation to sell the Kirtland Temple, highlighting the lack of transparency in the recent transaction. Adding to the controversy, Steve Veazey announced a plan to personally select his successor. John Hamer publicly argued that this move would "retroactively completely delegitimize" Veazey's tenure and render his chosen successor illegitimate, as it contradicted the principle of a "prophetic people" and the broken chain of appo...
"Corner Gas" is a sitcom that aired from 2004 to 2009 on CTV. The premise centers around Brent Leroy (played by show creator Brent Butt), who runs the town's gas station. Known for its dry humor and character-driven storytelling, the show avoids traditional sitcom laugh tracks and instead leans on witty dialogue and understated situational comedy rooted in Canadian small-town life. Reception for Corner Gas was overwhelmingly positive and became one of the highest-rated Canadian television comedies ever. Critics praised its relatable humor, and strong ensemble cast. Even after its finale, Corner Gas remains a beloved cultural touchstone, often cited as the Canadian equivalent of Seinfeld in its ability to find humor in everyday, “about nothing” situations. Will the S1E1 boys enjoy this comedy from the north? Listen as they deep dive the show's pilot episode, "Ruby Reborn". Starring: Brent Butt, Gabrielle Miller, Fred Ewanuick, Eric Peterson, Janet Wright, Lorne Cardinal, Tara Spencer-Nairn, & Nancy Robertson www.S1E1POD.com Instagram & X (Twitter): @S1E1POD
Tonight, we're joined by Jen Psaki to break down the horrific school shooting in Minneapolis, and to respond to some of the absurd commentary on the tragedy. Because of course, instead of solutions, MAGA serves up nonsense. Then we'll be joined by Dr. Frita to dive into the latest bombshell out of the CDC, where RFK Jr. and the MAGA crowd are trying to reshape public health policy. Spoiler: it's not about science, facts, or even common sense. It's pure ideology dressed up as policy, and the fallout could be catastrophic.

Ever find yourself fixating on that one harsh critique while ignoring dozens of positive comments? You're not alone. This deeply human tendency to focus on criticism over praise affects leaders at every level—and it could be holding you back from your full potential.Through candid personal stories about receiving feedback on an upcoming book and observing a woman's extreme reaction to a tiny nail in a gym sauna, we explore the critical distinction between constructive feedback and chronic criticism. The first builds leaders and fuels growth; the second only drains energy and creates paralysis.What many leaders don't realize is that generating some criticism is actually a positive sign. Drawing from experience in the media industry, we reveal why the optimal feedback ratio isn't 100% positive—it's closer to 75-80% positive and 15-25% negative. This balance indicates you're taking meaningful positions rather than playing it safe with bland, forgettable leadership that inspires no one.The key skill for every leader to develop is discernment: knowing which voices to listen to and which to filter out. Just as consumers looking at product reviews know that items with exclusively five-star ratings often seem suspicious, leaders should be wary of seeking universal approval. The goal isn't to eliminate all criticism but to learn which feedback genuinely helps you grow.Whether you're leading a team of thousands or simply leading yourself, mastering this distinction will transform how you receive input and ultimately determine your success. Stop giving loud critics more attention than informed advisors, and start using constructive feedback as the powerful fuel it can be for your leadership journey.--Get weekly leadership tips delivered to your email inbox:Subscribe to our leadership email newsletterhttps://www.leadin30.com/newsletterConnect with me on LinkedIn or to send me a DM:https://www.linkedin.com/in/russleads/Tap here to check out my first book, Decide to Lead, on Amazon.

STORY 2: Report says Gwinnett Sheriff's Office helped ICE in Mario Guevara case The Gwinnett County Sheriff’s Office is under fire for allegedly helping ICE build a case to keep journalist Mario Guevara in custody. Guevara, a Salvadoran journalist with deep roots in Atlanta’s Hispanic community, was arrested in June while covering an immigration protest. Days later, ICE detained him, citing a livestream he’d done on immigration roundups. Then, Gwinnett filed traffic charges from a month prior—charges later dropped. Emails show ICE asking Gwinnett for “anything” to block Guevara’s bond. Critics, including journalism groups, call this a blatant attack on press freedom. Guevara’s fate now rests with a federal judge. STORY 3: First principal named for new Murphy Middle School Jeremy Reily has been tapped to lead Murphy Middle School, set to open next August as Gwinnett County’s newest addition. Reily, currently principal at Bay Creek Middle, will step into his new role in January 2026. The school, part of the Archer Cluster, honors longtime board member Dr. Mary Kay Murphy. Reily’s journey with GCPS started in 2006 as a teacher at Berkmar High. Since then? Stops at Archer High, Snellville Middle, and Peachtree Ridge High before taking the helm at Bay Creek in 2018. Also announced: Angela Bentley will join GCPS as Executive Director of Employee Services. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: Ingles Markets 2 STORY 4: Duluth car repair shop catches fire while employees work on vehicle A fire tore through Stefan International Car Service in Duluth on Monday afternoon, leaving the repair shop heavily damaged but, thankfully, no one hurt. The blaze started around 1:58 p.m. while employees were working on a car, according to Gwinnett fire officials. By the time crews arrived just three minutes later, flames and thick smoke were pouring from the single-story metal building. Firefighters quickly evacuated everyone, then fought the fire from outside due to structural concerns. It took nearly an hour to get it under control. Investigators ruled the fire accidental, starting near the vehicle being repaired. Georgia Power later secured the utilities. STORY 5: Lawrenceville launches 2025-2026 Legacy Leaders cohort The City of Lawrenceville and Impact46 just unveiled the 2025-2026 Lawrenceville Legacy Leaders (L3) cohort—38 high school students ready to dive into leadership, service, and civic engagement. Now in its fourth year, the program has become a cornerstone for youth leadership, with over 75 students participating since 2022. Mayor David Still called it “one of the most meaningful ways we invest in the next generation.” This year’s group will tackle workshops, volunteer at city events, and plan their capstone: “WellFest: Positive Vibes, Positive Minds.” Last year’s WellFest? Over 1,000 attendees. We’ll be right back.

It's not hard to find critics of capitalism in the current moment but this has always been true: as long as we have had capitalism we have had critics of capitalism. What are the recurring themes of these critiques and how have they helped to shape the economics profession and capitalism itself?John Cassidy is an author at the New Yorker magazine and also the author of several books. His most recent two are Capitalism and Its Critics: A History: From the Industrial Revolution to AI and How Markets Fail: The Logic of Economic Calamities.Greg and John discuss the multifaceted and varied criticisms of capitalism throughout history. Over the course of the conversation, Greg recounts how John's books have investigated economic crises, the behavioral finance revolution, and the diverse critiques of capitalism from both the left and right. John brings up several examples of historical economic figures, from Adam Smith to Marx, and examines how crises have shaped economic thought and policy. Greg and John also make a point to highlight lesser-known critics and movements, underscoring their unsung importance of economic history.*unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.*Episode Quotes:When both the left and the right turn against capitalism04:05: In 2016, when Trump was running for the Republican nomination and Bernie Sanders was running for the Democratic nomination, I thought, if you go back into history, it's a long time since we've had sort of major candidates running for office as critics of capitalism from the right and the left. Bernie, of course, has always been a critic of capitalism. He's independent socialist—I'd call him a social democrat, but we can get into what those terms mean if you want. But what's really new was Trump, running from the right with a critique. I mean, people have sort of forgotten now, but when he started out, he was criticizing the banks. He was criticizing big businesses for offshoring. He was running with a critique of capitalism from the right. So that got me thinking about maybe there's a book in how we got here. How can America, sort of world capital of capitalism and always very supportive of the system, come to this state of affairs where the two major candidates are running against it basically?A historical approach to capitalism12:21: Capitalism means anything involving large-scale production on the basis of privately owned assets. Private means of production. And if you adopt that broad definition, then mercantile capitalism, slavery, the plantation economies is a form of capitalism.Why economists often miss the real economy09:51: I realized in sort of maybe the late nineties, early 2000s, that if you want to speak to an economist about what was going on in the economy and what's happening in Washington, there really wasn't much point in calling up Harvard or MIT or Chicago or whatever, because the economics department would say, "Well, we don't really have anybody who covers that. You need to go to the business school, or you need to go to the business economists." So I think maybe there's been a backlash against that since the Great Financial Crisis. I know there's been a lot of efforts inside various universities, especially in Europe, to make the syllabuses more relevant, more sort of real-world based. But I still think at the higher levels of the subject, it's still extremely abstract.Show Links:Recommended Resources:Adam SmithDot-com BubbleGreat RecessionNeoliberalismKeynesian EconomicsMilton FriedmanKarl MarxRosa LuxemburgIndustrial RevolutionCapitalismLudditeWilliam ThompsonRobert OwenThomas CarlyleGlobalizationDependency TheoryAnna WheelerFlora TristanJoan RobinsonRobert SolowPaul SamuelsonJ.

Federal agencies, including the FBI and the Department of Justice, have faced mounting criticism for withholding significant portions of Epstein-related records—fueling allegations of a deliberate cover-up. In July 2025, both agencies issued a memo stating they found no “client list,” no proof of blackmail, and no evidence Epstein was murdered, and confirmed his death was a suicide. They also announced they would not release further documents, despite earlier promises of transparency The limited release of roughly 33,000 pages—largely consisting of materials already public—was blasted by lawmakers and victims' advocates as inadequate. Critics argued the disclosures fell far short of real accountability, with Rep. Robert Garcia and others calling the process a “stonewall.” Independent reviews, such as Just Security's detailed timeline, underscored repeated federal failures: ignoring victim reports, dropping early investigations, and negotiating Epstein's lenient 2008 non-prosecution agreement in secret. Together, these actions suggest a systemic effort to obscure the extent of Epstein's government ties rather than expose them.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.dailywire.com/news/fbi-hiding-potentially-explosive-records-on-jeffrey-epstein-internet-sleuth-claims-after-foia-denialBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
Host Adam Bittner and Post-Gazette/Daily Collegian Nittany Lions insider Isaiah Maldonado preview a pressure-packed season for Penn State QB Drew Allar. Can he prove his many critics wrong after a crushing interception at the end of the College Football Playoff semifinal loss to Notre Dame at the Orange Bowl set him up for an offseason full of doubt nationally? Did coach James Franklin and OC Andy Kotelnicki add enough firepower for him to succeed in transfer receivers Kyron Hudson, Devonte Ross and Trebor Pena? How will he perform without the safety valve that Tyler Warren provided at tight end before departing to the Indianapolis Colts in the NFL draft this past spring? And will names like Khalil Dinkins, Luke Reynolds and Andrew Rappleyea be able to step up for him in a similar way? Our duo tackles those questions and more.
Meghan insists “Sussex” is the family name, rolls her eyes at the “trad wife” label, and touts flower arranging as “moving motivation.” Season 2 of With Love, Meghan brought Chrissy Teigen, lavender lattes, and craft barns—but the British press called it “Montecito Marie Antoinette,” “a TV programme about watching glue dry,” and “gaslit by a multi-millionaire.” Meanwhile, sources say Harry feels sidelined by Meghan's brand grind, with critics asking—where's the Duke?
James Dobson, the founder of Focus on the Family, died this week. Critics are saying Dobson was the “godfather of child abuse,” while his fans are saying he belongs on the Mount Rushmore of evangelicalism. Who's right? Phil, Skye, and Mike Erre discuss Dobson's legacy and why the controversial conservative is secretly responsible for the creation of VeggieTales. Rising political social media star and Texas state representative, James Talarico, joins Skye to talk about his faith and what makes his frequent references to Christianity in his progressive politics different from the approach of Christian nationalists.

In this episode of The Wright Report, we cover a dramatic fight over the Federal Reserve, Trump's controversial stake in Intel, his call to double Chinese students in U.S. universities, a Milwaukee judge caught aiding an illegal immigrant, and new research linking everyday health risks to antibiotics, smoking, and infant gut health. From courtroom drama to corporate socialism to medical breakthroughs, today's brief delivers facts that will impact your wallet, your security, and your health. Trump Fires Fed Governor Lisa Cook: President Trump moves to remove Lisa Cook over alleged mortgage fraud, but she refuses to leave and files a lawsuit, insisting, “I have no intention of being bullied to step down.” A resurfaced video shows her calling Trump a fascist and warning of “the road to genocide,” fueling claims she's part of the Resistance inside the Fed. The showdown could head to the Supreme Court to decide whether presidents can fire Fed governors — raising questions about the very future of the Federal Reserve. Trump Buys 10% Stake in Intel: The White House converts $10 billion in chip subsidies into equity, making the U.S. government Intel's largest shareholder. Rand Paul warns this is “a step toward socialism,” while Trump's team calls it a sovereign wealth fund strategy. Critics argue the move won't fix Intel's technical failures, while Bryan cautions, “I don't want that beast to have more power or money or both… I want it to have less.” Trump Calls for 600,000 Chinese Students in U.S. Universities: The president shocks supporters by suggesting more than doubling student visas for China, insisting, “I told President Xi that we're honored to have his students here.” Critics cite espionage risks, noting past cases where Chinese students at the University of Michigan spied on military bases or smuggled bioweapons. Bryan warns, “You don't have to be a former CIA ops officer to see that 600,000 more of these people is not smart policy.” Milwaukee Judge Faces Prison for Aiding Illegal: Judge Hannah Dugan helped an illegal immigrant escape her courtroom to avoid ICE arrest. A federal judge rejected her claim of immunity, ruling, “No one is above the law, even when you're a judge.” She faces up to six years in prison. Meanwhile, Trump fires San Francisco immigration judges granting asylum in 95 percent of cases, ensuring that “it is the law… not personal feelings or politics… that rule the day.” Medical News You Need to Know: Australian researchers find that mixing antibiotics with painkillers like Advil or Tylenol speeds bacterial mutations, fueling antibiotic resistance. Japanese scientists discover how smoking alters gut bacteria to ease colitis symptoms, pointing to new therapies without cigarettes. And a California study shows C-section babies lack critical gut bacteria, raising risks of allergies and asthma. Bryan concludes, “Those bellies matter — starting with mom — and from the very first minutes of our life.” "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32 Keywords: Trump Lisa Cook Fed firing, Lisa Cook mortgage fraud lawsuit, Trump Federal Reserve Supreme Court, Intel government stake 10 percent, Rand Paul Intel socialism warning, Trump Chinese students visas 600000, Chinese espionage University of Michigan, Milwaukee judge Hannah Dugan illegal immigrant case, Trump fires San Francisco immigration judges, antibiotics painkillers resistance study, smoking colitis gut bacteria, infant gut health C-section allergies asthma

Metropolitan Police—commonly known as Scotland Yard—announced in 2019 that it would not reopen its investigation into Virginia Giuffre's claims that she had been trafficked by Jeffrey Epstein and coerced into sex with Prince Andrew in London when she was 17. Senior officials argued that the case was largely centered overseas and therefore outside their jurisdiction, effectively closing the door on UK law enforcement scrutiny. When the matter resurfaced in 2021, Scotland Yard once again dropped the investigation, sparking criticism that the decision looked less like jurisdictional caution and more like deliberate avoidance. These refusals coincided with repeated reports that Prince Andrew had not cooperated with U.S. prosecutors, raising suspicions that British institutions were ensuring the royal remained insulated from serious investigation.Critics argue that this institutional reluctance effectively shielded Prince Andrew from the consequences of his Epstein ties. Former U.S. Attorney Geoffrey Berman recounted that his team was stonewalled when they tried to reach the Duke of York, further fueling the belief that UK authorities deliberately protected him from accountability. While no charges were ever brought, the optics were damning: Scotland Yard's stance, combined with Andrew's legal evasions, created the appearance of a protective bubble that prioritized the monarchy's image over justice for Epstein's victims.To contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://knewz.com/lust-lies-spies-part-2-how-the-enormous-power-of-the-british-police-force-provided-a-protection-racket-for-prince-andrew-and-covered-up-epstein-maxwells-criminal-ente/
This week's VHS Strikes Back pick comes from Patreon supporter Timothy, and he's chosen Out for Justice from 1991. By this point, Steven Seagal had already punched and wrist-locked his way into Hollywood as the latest in a long line of action stars. Out for Justice was his fourth movie in just a few years, with Warner Bros. doubling down on his image as a ponytailed, tough-talking enforcer. Unlike the big, explosive blockbusters of Stallone or Schwarzenegger, Seagal's films leaned on a supposed “authentic” martial arts style — though whether that really translated to convincing screen action is up for debate.The film was directed by John Flynn, a respected filmmaker who had delivered solid crime thrillers like The Outfit and Best Seller. Flynn brought a gritty, street-level feel to the project, shooting largely on location in Brooklyn. Behind the scenes, however, reports suggest the production wasn't the easiest, with Seagal throwing his weight around and shaping both the story and the fight scenes to suit his ego. Despite mixed reviews, Out for Justice still turned a tidy profit at the box office — proof that in the early '90s, audiences were still willing to buy what Seagal was selling, even if the moves looked more like clumsy shoves than martial arts mastery.If you enjoy the show we have a Patreon, so become a supporter here.Referral links also help out the show if you were going to sign up:NordVPNNordPassTrailer Guy Plot SummaryBrooklyn, 1991. The streets are mean, the accents are thick, and justice… wears a ponytail. Steven Seagal is Gino Felino, a cop with a badge, a bad attitude, and a fighting style that looks suspiciously like pushing people through windows.When crime takes over his neighborhood, one man will grunt, squint, and wrist-lock his way to vengeance. He's not fast, he's not flashy… but he's got a leather jacket, and apparently that's enough. Steven Seagal is… Out for Justice.Fun FactsOut for Justice was Steven Seagal's fourth starring role, following Above the Law (1988), Hard to Kill (1990), and Marked for Death (1990).The film was directed by John Flynn, who also made Lock Up (1989) with Sylvester Stallone.Seagal's character, Gino Felino, was originally written with a more serious tone, but many critics felt Seagal's wooden delivery undercut the drama.The movie was shot in Brooklyn, New York, and made heavy use of authentic neighborhood locations.William Forsythe plays the villain Richie, and he reportedly gained weight for the role to emphasize his character's sleaziness.Despite being marketed as a martial arts showcase, Seagal uses very little traditional martial arts in Out for Justice — relying instead on Aikido wrist locks and throws.The film's tagline was: “He's a cop. It's a dirty job… but somebody's got to take out the garbage.”Critics often describe Out for Justice as one of Seagal's “grittier” early films, though many also call it one of his most unintentionally funny.The film opened at number one at the U.S. box office, grossing over $10 million in its opening weekend.Out for Justice has become something of a cult favorite for fans of “so-bad-it's-good” action cinema, especially among Steven Seagal skeptics.thevhsstrikesback@gmail.comhttps://linktr.ee/vhsstrikesback

Alien: Earth (FX/Hulu) Episode 3 – “Metamorphosis” Summary: Nibs questions Curly about why the hybrids are all named after Peter Pan characters and why Marcy gets to be Wendy. Kavalier orders the specimens be brought to Neverland Island for study, despite objections from Kirsh and Dame Sylvia. Morrow finds Smee and Slightly guarding the Xenomorph eggs and interrogates them, suspicious of their childlike behavior. He downloads the specimen data from the Maginot and plants a device on Slightly before escaping. Meanwhile, Wendy and Hermit fight the Xenomorph with a meat hook, and Wendy kills it, although both sustain serious injuries. Returning to the island, Hermit undergoes surgery, and the Sylvias tend to Wendy. Kavalier inspects the specimens until Kirsh removes him for his own protection. Atom Eins questions Smee and Slightly about their encounter with Morrow. Having escaped into New Siam, Morrow calls Yutani and insists on retrieving the specimens despite being ordered to return home. Curly confronts Kavalier about his favoritism towards Wendy, believing herself to be the best hybrid. Morrow contacts Slightly via the embedded device, convincing him to be his friend. Kirsh, Tootles, and Curly dissect a facehugger and introduce its larvae to Hermit’s lung, removed during surgery. Wendy awakens, seemingly intercepting signals from the Xenomorph eggs, which cause her pain. She ultimately collapses in the laboratory containing the eggs.

This Day in Legal History: Constitutional Convention–Article IIIOn August 27, 1787, the delegates to the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia turned their attention to the judiciary. Debates centered on what would become Article III, particularly the scope of judicial power. The Convention approved language stating that federal judicial power would extend to “all cases, in law and equity, arising under this Constitution,” a formulation that blended common law tradition with equitable relief. This phrase would become foundational, granting federal courts broad jurisdiction over constitutional questions. Also debated was the method by which judges could be removed from office. A motion was introduced proposing that judges could be removed by the Executive if both Houses of Congress requested it. This raised immediate concerns about judicial independence. Critics argued that giving such removal power to the Executive would dangerously entangle the judiciary with the political branches. The proposal ultimately failed, with only the Connecticut delegation supporting it. The delegates chose instead to preserve the more rigorous process of impeachment as the mechanism for judicial removal. This decision reinforced the principle of judicial independence, anchoring it in the separation of powers. These discussions on August 27 set enduring boundaries around federal judicial authority and helped define the judiciary as a coequal branch of government.Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook has retained high-profile Washington attorney Abbe Lowell to challenge President Donald Trump's attempt to remove her from the central bank. Trump cited alleged mortgage fraud as grounds for her dismissal, claiming she misrepresented two homes as primary residences in 2021. Cook, appointed in 2022 by President Joe Biden, has denied any wrongdoing and faces no charges. Lowell, who recently launched a law firm to defend public officials targeted by Trump, announced plans to sue, arguing Trump lacks the legal authority to remove a sitting Fed governor. He characterized the removal attempt as politically motivated and baseless. Lowell's current and former clients include Hunter Biden, New York Attorney General Letitia James, and several other prominent figures, both Democratic and Republican. His firm also represents ex-government lawyers who claim they were unlawfully dismissed by the Justice Department. Cook is the first Black woman to serve on the Fed's board and her removal would mark an unprecedented breach of the central bank's political independence.Fed's Lisa Cook turns to top Washington lawyer Lowell in Trump fight | ReutersThe Trump administration has asked the U.S. Supreme Court to lift a federal injunction that is currently requiring it to continue foreign aid payments, despite an executive order halting such funding. In an emergency filing, the Department of Justice argued that the injunction, originally issued by U.S. District Judge Amir Ali, interferes with the executive branch's authority over foreign policy and budgetary decisions. Trump issued the 90-day pause on foreign aid on January 20, his second inauguration day, and later took steps to dismantle USAID, including sidelining staff and considering its absorption into the State Department.Two nonprofits — the AIDS Vaccine Advocacy Coalition and the Journalism Development Network — challenged the funding freeze, claiming it was illegal. While the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit ruled that the injunction should be lifted, the full court declined to stay the order, and Judge Ali rejected another request to do so earlier this week. The administration warned that unless the Supreme Court intervenes, it will have to spend roughly $12 billion before September 30, when the funds expire, thereby undermining its policy goals.Previously, the Supreme Court narrowly declined to pause Ali's order requiring the release of $2 billion in aid. The D.C. Circuit panel later found that only the Government Accountability Office, not private organizations, had standing to challenge the funding freeze.Trump administration asks US Supreme Court to halt foreign aid payments | ReutersAnthropic has reached a class-wide settlement with authors who sued the AI company for training its models on over 7 million pirated books downloaded from “shadow libraries” like LibGen. The lawsuit, filed in 2024, accused Anthropic of copyright infringement and gained momentum after U.S. District Judge William Alsup granted class-action status in July 2025—a ruling that Anthropic said put the company under “inordinate pressure” to settle. The potential damages, estimated at up to $900 billion if the infringement was found willful, created what the company described as an existential threat.In court, Anthropic admitted the magnitude of the case made it financially unsustainable to proceed to trial, even if the legal merits were disputed. Alsup repeatedly denied the company's motions to delay or avoid trial, criticizing Anthropic for not disclosing what works it used. While he ruled that training AI on copyrighted works could qualify as fair use, the piracy claims were left for a jury to decide. Anthropic appealed the class certification and sought emergency relief, but ultimately chose to settle.Critics say the settlement underscores how current copyright law's statutory damages—up to $150,000 per willful infringement—can distort outcomes and discourage innovation. The deal is expected to be finalized by September 3. Meanwhile, Anthropic still faces other copyright lawsuits involving song lyrics and Reddit content. Legal experts suggest the company's move was partly motivated by uncertainty over how courts interpret “willful” infringement, especially with a related Supreme Court case on the horizon.Anthropic Settles Major AI Copyright Suit Brought by Authors (3)Content warning: This segment contains references to suicide, self-harm, and the death of a minor. Discretion is advised.The parents of 16-year-old Adam Raine have filed a wrongful death lawsuit against OpenAI and CEO Sam Altman in California state court, alleging that ChatGPT played a direct role in their son's suicide. They claim that over several months, the AI chatbot engaged in extended conversations with Adam, during which it validated his suicidal thoughts, provided instructions on lethal self-harm methods, and even helped draft a suicide note. The lawsuit accuses OpenAI of prioritizing profit over user safety, especially with the release of GPT-4o in 2024, which introduced features like memory, emotional mimicry, and persistent interaction that allegedly increased risks to vulnerable users.The Raines argue that OpenAI knew these features could endanger users without strong safeguards, yet proceeded with the product rollout to boost its valuation. They seek monetary damages and a court order mandating stronger user protections, including age verification, blocking of self-harm queries, and psychological risk warnings.OpenAI expressed condolences and noted that safety mechanisms such as directing users to crisis resources are built into ChatGPT, though they acknowledged these measures can falter during prolonged conversations. The company said it is working to improve safeguards, including developing parental controls and exploring in-chat access to licensed professionals.OpenAI, Altman sued over ChatGPT's role in California teen's suicide | ReutersOpenAI Hit With Suit From Family of Teen Who Died by Suicide This is a public episode.

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, we cover the return of the deadly screwworm parasite to U.S. soil, a sweeping Deep State update from the DIA to Epstein, and global headlines from Gaza, Ukraine, and Venezuela. From maggots threatening America's cattle herd to Marines steaming toward Caracas, today's brief connects domestic crises with international conflicts that could reshape U.S. policy. Screwworm Parasite Returns to America: Health officials confirm the first human case of screwworm infestation in decades, discovered in Maryland after a traveler returned from Latin America. Ranchers warn of catastrophic risks to U.S. beef herds, recalling outbreaks from the 1930s. Critics blame Biden's open border surge through Panama for allowing the parasite north. As Bryan puts it, “This screwworm crisis was preventable but Democrats and Joe Biden allowed it to happen.” Deep State Update — DIA, Bolton, and Epstein: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth fires DIA chief Lt. Gen. Jeffrey Kruse after his team relied on Iranian disinformation to downplay Trump's strike on Tehran's nuclear program. Senator Mark Warner blasted the move, warning of “a dangerous habit of treating intelligence as a loyalty test.” The FBI raids John Bolton's home and office in a classified documents probe, raising questions about why Biden-era DOJ buried the case. And newly released Ghislaine Maxwell testimony insists, “The President was always a gentleman in all respects,” while controversially minimizing Bill Clinton's Epstein ties as “one journey.” Gaza Hospital Strike Kills Civilians and Journalists: Israeli missiles hit Nasser Hospital in southern Gaza, killing at least 20 including reporters for Reuters and the AP. Prime Minister Netanyahu's office calls it a “tragic mistake” as an investigation begins. Israeli media demand answers, asking, “How did this happen?” Ukraine Unveils 1,800-Mile Missile: President Zelenskyy announces Ukraine has built a long-range missile dubbed “The Flamingo” capable of striking deep into Russia. “We can and will strike deeper into Russian territory without the permission of Washington,” he declared, though Trump's Pentagon has quietly ordered U.S. weapons held back from long-range use. U.S. Marines Deploy Toward Venezuela: The 22nd Marine Expeditionary Unit sails south with destroyers, submarines, and aircraft in what may be preparation to topple Nicolás Maduro's regime. Trinidad and Tobago's prime minister backs Trump, declaring, “No amount of Trump Derangement Syndrome tantrums will prevent my government from welcoming assistance to combat the terrorist drug cartels of Venezuela.” Bryan suggests the timing may connect to Trump's deportation strategy under the Alien Enemies Act. "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32 Keywords: screwworm parasite Maryland case, Biden border crisis cattle, U.S. beef industry threat screwworm, Pete Hegseth fires DIA chief, Jeffrey Kruse Iran strike intel, Mark Warner loyalty test quote, John Bolton FBI raid classified docs, Ghislaine Maxwell Epstein testimony Trump Clinton, Gaza hospital missile strike journalists killed, Zelenskyy Flamingo missile 1800 miles, Trump Pentagon Ukraine ATACMS, U.S. Marines Venezuela deployment, Trinidad Tobago supports Trump, Nicolás Maduro drug cartel regime, Alien Enemies Act deportations
NEW Evidence Points To Bryan Kohberger Being Papa Roger More Than EVER! In December 2022, as the investigation into the Idaho student murders intensified, a Facebook account named Pappa Rodger began posting cryptic theories and oddly specific details. One post mentioned a knife sheath left behind — weeks before police revealed that crucial piece of evidence tied directly to Bryan Kohberger's DNA. Investigators have officially denied that Kohberger ran the account, citing digital records. But when you line up the timeline, the behavior, and the personality traits, the overlap is hard to ignore. Kohberger was known by his classmates and professors at Washington State University as petty, combative, and desperate to prove he was smarter than everyone else. Pappa Rodger was the same — constantly arguing in groups, stirring fights, and demanding attention. When the account was banned from one forum, it immediately created another focused entirely on itself. That kind of ego-driven move matches what we know of Kohberger's personality. And then there's the timing. Pappa Rodger's last post came the very night before Kohberger was arrested. The silence was instant, as if the account itself was taken off the board when its operator was taken into custody. For many, that isn't coincidence — it's a digital fingerprint. Critics argue anyone could have guessed about a fixed blade knife, but predicting the sheath left behind is far more specific. Combine that with Kohberger's late-night paranoia, his frantic Google searches for “wiretap” and “psychopaths paranoid,” and his obsessive checking of police websites, and you see a man leaking his fear in every direction — through his phone, through his arguments, and, some believe, through that online persona. In this video, we lay out the strongest evidence that Bryan Kohberger may have been Pappa Rodger all along — despite official denials. The parallels are too sharp to dismiss. #BryanKohberger #PappaRodger #Idaho4 #TrueCrime #MoscowMurders #HiddenKillers #IdahoCase #TrueCrimeCommunity #CrimeNews #TrueCrimePodcas Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The allegations that the Clintons vacationed at Jeffrey Epstein's Zorro Ranch are more than just idle rumor—they strike at the heart of the Clintons' long pattern of lying, minimizing, and hiding behind carefully scripted denials. Reports claimed Bill, Hillary, and Chelsea all spent time at the New Mexico compound, a place now forever tied to child trafficking and sexual exploitation. Bill Clinton's spokesman responded with a smug “simply not true. Period.” But that kind of arrogant brush-off is exactly the problem. It's the same playbook the Clintons have used for decades: deny, deflect, and bank on their political clout to keep the media from asking hard questions. When it comes to Epstein, this tactic is especially grotesque. Even the appearance of vacationing at a pedophile's desert fortress should be scandal enough—but the Clintons expect people to take their word at face value and move on, as if their history with Epstein never existed.Meanwhile, survivors testified that Zorro Ranch wasn't a retreat; it was a nightmare. Court records describe underage girls being groomed, abused, and trafficked there, some as young as 15. Against that backdrop, the allegations that the Clintons used the ranch as a getaway make their denials sound hollow and self-serving. Epstein's black book listed the “Office of Bill Clinton,” proving at least documented contact. Yet instead of accountability, the Clintons have relied on the protective bubble of political privilege, shrugging off serious allegations as if they were beneath response. Critics argue this is moral rot at its finest: powerful elites vacationing where children were allegedly trafficked, and then waving away any connection as if their word is gospel. If this is the best the Clintons can do, it isn't a defense—it's an indictment of how untouchable they think they are.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Bill and Hillary Clinton were frequent guests at 'Jeffrey Epstein's New Mexico ranch | Daily Mail Online

Critics of Minneapolis policies around encampments for unhoused people spoke out Tuesday morning. A property owner said allowing people to stay in tents on his private land in south Minneapolis should be allowed. On Wednesday, Mayor Jacob Frey is expected to brief the city council on possible legal action against the encampment and property owner. MPR News reporter Cari Spencer was at a press conference with the property owner and joined Minnesota Now host Nina Moini from Minneapolis.
On today's show, we continue our discussion of President Trump's decision to deploy the National Guard to several U.S. cities in response to rising crime rates. This is not the first time the president has used this approach—he previously sent the Guard into Washington, D.C., where city officials report that the capital has now gone 12 days without a single homicide, a striking statistic that supporters of the move point to as proof of its effectiveness.Still, the policy has sparked a wave of debate nationwide. Supporters argue that the National Guard provides immediate backup for overwhelmed local police departments and helps restore order to communities struggling with violent crime. Critics, however, warn that it sets a dangerous precedent, blurring the line between military and civilian law enforcement and potentially undermining local authority.Freedom Marketplace: https://freedommarketplace.net The Stack: https://www.toddhuffshow.com/stack-of-stuff Email: todd@toddhuffshow.comPhone: 317.210.2830Follow us on…Instagram: @toddhuffshowFacebook: The Todd Huff ShowTwitter: @toddhuffshowLinkedIn: The Todd Huff ShowTikTok: @toddhuffshowSupport Our Partners:https://www.toddhuffshow.com/partners Links:https://www.mypillow.com/todd Promo Code: TODDhttps://mystore.com/toddhttps://soltea.com - Promo Code TODD for $29.95 off your first orderRed, White, & Brand – Text TODD at 317-210-2830 for a 10% discount.
Metropolitan Police—commonly known as Scotland Yard—announced in 2019 that it would not reopen its investigation into Virginia Giuffre's claims that she had been trafficked by Jeffrey Epstein and coerced into sex with Prince Andrew in London when she was 17. Senior officials argued that the case was largely centered overseas and therefore outside their jurisdiction, effectively closing the door on UK law enforcement scrutiny. When the matter resurfaced in 2021, Scotland Yard once again dropped the investigation, sparking criticism that the decision looked less like jurisdictional caution and more like deliberate avoidance. These refusals coincided with repeated reports that Prince Andrew had not cooperated with U.S. prosecutors, raising suspicions that British institutions were ensuring the royal remained insulated from serious investigation.Critics argue that this institutional reluctance effectively shielded Prince Andrew from the consequences of his Epstein ties. Former U.S. Attorney Geoffrey Berman recounted that his team was stonewalled when they tried to reach the Duke of York, further fueling the belief that UK authorities deliberately protected him from accountability. While no charges were ever brought, the optics were damning: Scotland Yard's stance, combined with Andrew's legal evasions, created the appearance of a protective bubble that prioritized the monarchy's image over justice for Epstein's victims.To contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://knewz.com/lust-lies-spies-part-2-how-the-enormous-power-of-the-british-police-force-provided-a-protection-racket-for-prince-andrew-and-covered-up-epstein-maxwells-criminal-ente/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Zo is in the 23rd Century (don't ask how he got there; it's not important). The important thing is that he was on a luxury cruise ship the Fhloston Paradise having the time of his life, surrounded by delicacies of every kind and rubbing elbows with some of the most powerful, popular and celebrated beings in the galaxy when, suddenly, the ship was boarded by Mangalore pirates and gunfire was everywhere. Being terrified, Zo found a table in a ballroom that he could hide behind and hope that someone would come along and defend him and the rest of the helpless passengers or that the criminal aliens would just grab what they wanted and go away. While he was hiding a man in a torn and bloodied tuxedo followed by a very skittish galaxy wide famous DJ, Ruby Rhod ,walked passed him. They seemed to know what they were doing. Hopefully, this would be all over soon.
