Send us a textThe Korean military is haunted — literally and culturally. Soldiers whisper about phantom footsteps, cold spots inside fences, and radio calls from the dead. In this episode, we look at the legends that thrive in Korea's barracks: the White-Clad Old Man, the Combat Boot Ghost, the Ammunition Depot Spirits, and the Fog Ghost along the DMZ.We also unpack why these stories endure. Is it trauma made visible? Shared imagination? Or proof that some soldiers never stopped serving?Media recommendationsR-PointDog SoldiersDead of Night (‘74)The Living & the Dead (‘07)The Others (kinda) Korea's #1 ghost and dark history walking tour.

Peter Greenberg in conversation with David Eastaugh In 1977, White enrolled at Boston University to study journalism. While in school, he worked in a record shop in Brookline, Massachusetts, named Good Vibrations, where his singing was heard by musician Peter Greenberg of the Lyres. White adopted the stage name Barrence Whitfield to avoid being mistaken for superstar Barry White and began performing with Greenberg and former members of the Lyres as Barrence Whitfield & the Savages STARR AND THE CZARS, hailing from Washington, DC, bring together an all-star line-up of garage-rock veterans into one explosive new band. Fronted by JAKE STARR (Adam West, Jake Starr & The Delicious Fullness, Go Mod Go!, Goy Division…), the group also features PETER GREENBERG and MICHAEL LEWIS, two legends from Boston's trailblazing DMZ. After their time in DMZ, Greenberg and Lewis both carried the torch in Lyres, cementing their reputation as key figures of the late '70s and early '80s garage revival. Greenberg later went on to co-found The Customs and Barrence Whitfield & The Savages, while Lewis added his bass guitar work to bands such as The A-Bones, Yo La Tengo and The Schramms. Starr, meanwhile, became a fixture of Washington D.C.'s garage scene.

"형, 우리는 가족이야,"En: Minjun said, "Hyung, we are family."Ko: 해영도 미소 지으며 고개를 끄덕였다.En: Haeyoung nodded with a smile.Ko: 그 순간, 진수는 알았다.En: At that moment, Jinsu realized.Ko: 여긴 더 이상 홀로 있는 곳이 아니었다.En: This place was no longer a place of solitude.Ko: 새로운 가족과 함께 있는 곳이었다.En: It was a place with a new family.Ko: 그의 마음은 따뜻해졌다.En: His heart warmed.Ko: 멀리 떨어진 곳에서도, 마음의 가족은 가까이 있었다.En: Even from a distance, the family of the heart was close.Ko: 그렇게 진수는 새로운 시작을 맞이했다.En: Thus Jinsu embraced a new beginning.Ko: 가족은 피로만 이루어지지 않는다는 것을 깨달으며, DMZ의 가을은 더 이상 쓸쓸하지 않았다.En: Realizing that family is not just formed by blood, autumn in the DMZ was no longer lonely.Ko: 아름다운 인연이 사방에 있었고, 그는 그것을 소중히 간직하기로 했다.En: Beautiful connections were everywhere, and he decided to cherish them.Ko: 그날 바람은 한층 더 부드럽게 진수를 감싸 안았다.En: On that day, the wind wrapped around Jinsu more gently.

In this weeks Urban Valor episode, Army Sergeant Major Bart Womack recounts the terrifying night a fellow soldier threw grenades into tents full of sleeping American troops. It was the first insider attack of the Iraq War, and it came from within their own ranks.But that wasn't the only time Bart faced death.

Victor Davis Hanson explains what was (and wasn't) said at the summit, why Russia is appealing directly to Trump and the American people, and how Trump—whether the Left likes it or not—could end this war he didn't start on today's episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” “ Ukraine will not be in NATO. They don't have the military wherewithal. They have the moral edge and the moral right—but they don't have the military wherewithal. Nor does Europe or the United States want to go to that length to give it to them against nuclear Russia to reclaim the Donbas—all of the Donbas—or Crimea. “ The summit was about what we could expect. Putin wants to win over America so then America will back off from Ukraine, and so it can get some more mileage westward and further deteriorate or erode or detrite the Ukrainian military. The Ukrainian military is pretty tough. It's hanging in there. It wants enough aid to leverage Putin. And between those two poles, there will be a DMZ. And if there is a peace settlement, it will be the work—whether the Left likes it or not—of Donald Trump, the one world leader, among the three, that has nothing to do with this war.”

The folder was almost full so I decided the time was right for a covers show. The key words are “almost full”, though. As late as this morning I was a few songs short of a full show. But I had faith. First off, I discovered the reissue of a 2012 covers EP by Black Furies called Get Down With It that included a cover of “Teenage Kicks”. Wait, what? It seems like every time I do a covers show I find yet another version of that tune. Then came the release of the explosive new album by The Dogmatics, Nowheresville, destined to be one of my favorite albums of the year. That album’s final tune is “Bail Me Out” by Boston legends DMZ. Add a few other new finds and the show was ready! While the vast majority of tracks are either brand new or come from reissues, I do have a lengthy Redd Kross-related set in the middle of the show. Having just finished the great new autobiography Now You’re One Of Us: The Incredible Story of Redd Kross, it was just natural to showcase some of the many covers they recorded over the years. Besides two tracks […]

And Roblox just launched a licensing platform that allows Roblox creators to get licensing for their games from big IPs like Netflix, Lionsgate, and SEGA.

What if 11 days just disappeared? It happened in 1752. This video explains the lost days, the daylight savings time connection, and why we still struggle with time today. Discover how a calendar change shook the world—missing wages, confused farmers, shifted birthdays, and even George Washington's “new” birthday. From mobs yelling “Give us back our 11 days!” to parallels with Y2K panic and today's daylight savings chaos, this isn't just a strange moment in history—it's a warning about how fragile our relationship with time really is. 

Trump's week was wild: military parades met with mass protests, G7 drama, a snub from the NAACP, and—yes—a MAGA smartphone drop. In the B-Block, political tension escalates as we unpack the Padilla vs. Noem drama and a wave of shocking political violence.

Send us a textThe Pentagon's busy doing backflips to avoid picking a side in the Israel-Iran slugfest, while the U.S. military quietly scrambles tankers, evacuates families, and acts like $300 is enough to survive Naples, Italy. Meanwhile, Air Force tankers take center stage, hypersonic weapons get a reboot (because we're behind... again), and Space Force finally gets a toy that isn't just PowerPoint.Plus: AI flight scheduling, Normandy's long-overdue tribute, the F-35's never-ending upgrade saga, and why the Naval Academy's race-based admissions policy should've died long ago. Add some Trump, NATO posturing, and North Korean diplomacy (lol) for flavor. You'll either be informed, outraged, or both—so grab your pre-workout and dive in.

In this riveting episode, Ghost dives deep into two volatile geopolitical flashpoints: the unlikely peace overtures between North and South Korea and Israel's escalating brinkmanship with Iran. Ghost unpacks the bizarre saga of “poop balloons” and propaganda leaflets exchanged across the DMZ, ultimately revealing a failed false flag plan by South Korea's former president, one so outrageous it led to his impeachment for treason. He then dissects the emergence of South Korea's new president, dubbed the “Korean Donald Trump,” and explores his populist potential. Shifting to the Middle East, Ghost lays out a compelling argument that Netanyahu is being boxed into launching an attack on Iran, potentially triggering global conflict. He analyzes Trump's rhetorical baiting, Iran's cool-headed diplomatic moves, and Israel's internal fractures, from military dissent to Netanyahu's corruption trials. Framed through a psychological and narrative warfare lens, this episode suggests that the world is watching the collapse of the Zionist state's credibility and the rise of new multipolar power dynamics. With surgical insight, Ghost forecasts that any Israeli aggression could backfire catastrophically, positioning Trump and Putin on the same side of history.

COME SEE US LIVE IN LONDON! https://bigbellycomedy.club/event/lions-led-by-donkeys-podcast-live-big-fat-festival-southbank/ For this week's bonus, we're discussing the late-'60s insurgency in South Korea, back at a time when the DMZ was more of a concept than an actual barrier, and the North Korean military trained an elite commando unit to sneak across the border in 1968 with a mission to kill South Korean president Park Chung-Hee. They got... closer than you might think. Get the whole episode on Patreon here! https://www.patreon.com/posts/131204772
