    Earlier today a person protesting against the deportation of illegal invaders of my nation attempted to run over a DHS officer with her vehicle in Minneapolis, MN. The officer responded swiftly and decisively and shot the protestor dead. Despite the wailings of Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey—him of the speeches in Somali—claiming that the officer shot unlawfully, it would be difficult to envision a more lawful use of deadly defensive force. That said, just because the shooting was righteous doesn't mean the officer might not be facing terrible legal liability, given the political dynamics and the relentlessness of those who wish to erase American culture from the face of the Earth.

    WEAPONIZED with Jeremy Corbell & George Knapp
    Alien Mummies Or Ancient Humans Butchered And Sold By Grave-Robbing Conmen?

    WEAPONIZED with Jeremy Corbell & George Knapp

    Anyone with an interest in any and all evidence related to alien species, non-human intelligence, or UFO/UAP is likely familiar with claims of mummified alien remains. Proponents say the remains have been buried in South America for hundreds of years and have been conclusively examined and studied by scientists and medical experts - and are legit. But many of the claims made are muddled at best, and persons involved in bringing the mummies forward have been caught fabricating evidence. For the last few years, WEAPONIZED co-hosts Jeremy Corbell and George Knapp have followed the controversy, as reported in various news reports, but decided to leave the topic to those who have the expertise needed to formally investigate the claims and the mummies themselves. If the three-fingered mummies turned out to be non-human or even extraterrestrial in origin, it would be a massively important finding that would boost the credibility of those who argue that non-human intelligence has been present on Earth for hundreds of years - maybe thousands. So, bottom line: Are these mummies the real deal, or have the proponents engaged in ghoulish grave robbing and the surgical manipulation of long-dead, but very human, corpses? An explorer and YouTube creator turned UFO investigator traveled to Brazil to take a deep dive into the claims and was, for a time, a believer, not a debunker. His YouTube site, “Incredible History,” included a previous video entitled “Show Me the Mummies,” and his explosive new video, released just days ago, appears to blow the lid off of the mummy claims and the people who have promoted what some believe is a money-making scam - one linked to South American drug cartels. Two esteemed academics have joined the conversation, and both make strong arguments that the two best-known mummies show clear evidence of tampering. In this episode of WEAPONIZED, we speak with Will Brown who created the “Incredible History” YouTube channel, along with Dr. Dan Proctor, a biological anthropologist, and Michele Adams, a highly experienced radiologist who says she is an experiencer herself. Both of these professionals are openly interested in ETs and non-human intelligence, but their precise criticisms of the mummy evidence made public so far have subjected the two PhDs to personal attacks and allegations that they are designated debunkers working on behalf of the deep state to muddy the waters. Is there an assembly line somewhere in Peru where long-dead humans are being carved up and then re-arranged to look like three-fingered aliens? And is there a flourishing black market where private collectors pay huge sums in order to obtain their very own “alien” mummy? This WEAPONIZED episode includes a spirited discussion about where the mummy debate stands now and what it would take to confirm that the two most prominent mummy specimens are the real deal.

    Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day

    Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for January 9, 2026 is: innocuous • ih-NAH-kyuh-wus • adjective Innocuous describes either something that is not likely to bother or offend anyone (as in “an innocuous comment”), or something that causes no injury, or is otherwise considered harmless (as in “an innocuous prank”). // The reporter asked what seemed like an innocuous question, but it prompted the candidate to storm off, abruptly ending the press conference. See the entry > Examples: “Strong solar storms can be dangerous for astronauts in space, and can cause problems for GPS systems and satellites. ... But solar storms can also have more innocuous consequences on Earth, such as supercharged displays of the northern lights.” — Denise Chow, NBC News (online), May 15, 2025 Did you know? Innocuous is rooted in a lack of harm: it comes from the Latin adjective innocuus, which was formed by combining the negative prefix in- with a form of the verb nocēre, meaning “to harm” or “to hurt.” It first appeared in print in the early 1600s with the meaning “harmless; causing no injury,” as in “an innocuous gas,” and soon developed a second, metaphorical sense used to describe something that does not offend or cause hurt feelings, as in “an innocuous comment.” Innocent followed the same trajectory centuries before; its negative in- prefix joined with Latin nocent-, nocens, meaning “wicked,” which also comes from nocēre. This is not to say that nocēre has only contributed words that semantically negate the harm inherent in the root: nocēre is also the source of noxious and nuisance.

    In its first year, the second Trump Administration slashed environmental regulations and programs, overstepping its executive authority in the eyes of some environmental advocates. But the judicial and legislative branches appear unable or unwilling to provide a check on what legal expert Pat Parenteau sees is abusive executive power threatening the health of people and planet. Also, the American prairie is one of the most biodiverse ecosystems in the world, but today just one percent of eastern tallgrass prairie remains, and western shortgrass prairie is disappearing at a rate of more than a million acres a year. The author of Sea of Grass: The Conquest, Ruin, and Redemption of Nature on the American Prairie joins us to discuss.  And efforts to bring back bison that once roamed those plains are helping to revive Indigenous culture on lands across the US West, including in the city of Denver. --- If you're not yet signed up for the Living on Earth newsletter, the start of the new year is a great time to join!

    NASA makes history after announcing it will return four astronauts home early in the first-ever medical evacuation from the International Space Station, raising questions about safety, preparedness, and what went wrong in orbit. Back on Earth, tragedy strikes much closer to home with a deadly shooting in Sylmar stemming from a family dispute, ending in a murder-suicide that shocks the community. Sports and headlines collide as rumors swirl around Travis Kelce’s possible retirement, and we pivot to a lighter but timely moment wishing Dean Sharp — The House Whisperer — a happy birthday before diving into one of Southern California’s biggest ongoing issues: rebuilding after devastating fires. Dean breaks down the growing controversy over permits, why hundreds of millions of dollars aren’t going where people think they are, and just how expensive — and complicated — rebuilding has become. The conversation continues with serious concerns about whether the flood of rebuilding plans could lead to mistakes in places like Altadena and the Palisades, plus clarity on ADUs, temporary tax relief, and how housing policy is trying to keep up with demand. And just when you think the day can’t get stranger, emergency crews are forced to evacuate people off the Disneyland Monorail after it’s stuck in place for more than two and a half hours — proving even the “Happiest Place on Earth” isn’t immune to chaos. Space, tragedy, housing headaches, and Disney drama — all in one unforgettable hour.

    What's the opposite of cancer? If you answered “cure,” “antidote,” or “antivenom” — you've obviously been reading the antonym section at www.merriam-webster.com/thesaurus/cancer.But today's guest Athena Aktipis says that the opposite of cancer is us: it's having a functional multicellular body that's cooperating effectively in order to make that multicellular body function.If, like us, you found her answer far more satisfying than the dictionary, maybe you could consider closing your dozens of merriam-webster.com tabs, and start listening to this podcast instead.Rebroadcast: this episode was originally released in January 2023.Links to learn more, video, and full transcript: https://80k.link/AA As Athena explains in her book The Cheating Cell, what we see with cancer is a breakdown in each of the foundations of cooperation that allowed multicellularity to arise: Cells will proliferate when they shouldn't. Cells won't die when they should. Cells won't engage in the kind of division of labour that they should. Cells won't do the jobs that they're supposed to do. Cells will monopolise resources. And cells will trash the environment.When we think about animals in the wild, or even bacteria living inside our cells, we understand that they're facing evolutionary pressures to figure out how they can replicate more; how they can get more resources; and how they can avoid predators — like lions, or antibiotics.We don't normally think of individual cells as acting as if they have their own interests like this. But cancer cells are actually facing similar kinds of evolutionary pressures within our bodies, with one major difference: they replicate much, much faster.Incredibly, the opportunity for evolution by natural selection to operate just over the course of cancer progression is easily faster than all of the evolutionary time that we have had as humans since Homo sapiens came about.Here's a quote from Athena:“So you have to shift your thinking to be like: the body is a world with all these different ecosystems in it, and the cells are existing on a time scale where, if we're going to map it onto anything like what we experience, a day is at least 10 years for them, right? So it's a very, very different way of thinking.”You can find compelling examples of cooperation and conflict all over the universe, so Rob and Athena don't stop with cancer. They also discuss:Cheating within cells themselvesCooperation in human societies as they exist today — and perhaps in the future, between civilisations spread across different planets or starsWhether it's too out-there to think of humans as engaging in cancerous behaviourWhy elephants get deadly cancers less often than humans, despite having way more cellsWhen a cell should commit suicideThe strategy of deliberately not treating cancer aggressivelySuperhuman cooperationAnd at the end of the episode, they cover Athena's new book Everything is Fine! How to Thrive in the Apocalypse, including:Staying happy while thinking about the apocalypsePractical steps to prepare for the apocalypseAnd whether a zombie apocalypse is already happening among Tasmanian devilsChapters:Rob's intro (00:00:00)The interview begins (00:02:22)Cooperation (00:06:12)Cancer (00:09:52)How multicellular life survives (00:20:10)Why our anti-contagious-cancer mechanisms are so successful (00:32:34)Why elephants get deadly cancers less often than humans (00:48:50)Life extension (01:02:00)Honour among cancer thieves (01:06:21)When a cell should commit suicide (01:14:00)When the human body deliberately produces tumours (01:19:58)Surprising approaches for managing cancer (01:25:47)Analogies to human cooperation (01:39:32)Applying the "not treating cancer aggressively" strategy to real life (01:55:29)Humanity on Earth, and Earth in the universe (02:01:53)Superhuman cooperation (02:08:51)Cheating within cells (02:15:17)Father's genes vs. mother's genes (02:26:18)Everything is Fine: How to Thrive in the Apocalypse (02:40:13)Do we really live in an era of unusual risk?

    Jupiter looks like it’s wearing zebra stripes. Bands of clouds that run parallel to the equator alternate between bright and dark – zebra stripes. Each one is thousands of miles wide. The stripes are a result of Jupiter’s composition and its rotation. It’s basically a ball of gas – it’s made almost entirely of hydrogen and helium. And even though it’s 11 times the diameter of Earth, it spins on its axis in less than 10 hours. That forces the clouds that top its atmosphere into bands that stretch from east to west. The bands alternate between belts and zones. The belts are darker – probably because they allow us to see deeper into the atmosphere. The zones are topped by the highest clouds. The clouds are made of frozen ammonia, which looks bright white. The belts don’t have that layer. Instead, we’re seeing clouds in the next layer down. Those clouds are made of water and other compounds, which are darker. The stripes are flanked by jet streams that blow in alternating directions. They can roar at hundreds of miles per hour. They keep the belts and zones separated – maintaining the zebra stripes on this giant planet. Jupiter is at its best this week. It’s in view all night, and it shines brightest for the year. It looks like a brilliant star. It’s low in the eastern sky in early evening, and climbs high across the sky later on. The stripes are easily visible through just about any telescope.

    This isn't about drugs. It isn't about fentanyl. And it's not even about war. This episode breaks down the real strategy unfolding in Venezuela—and why oil, leverage, and sanctions enforcement are reshaping the global balance of power. Venezuela holds the largest proven oil reserves on Earth—worth over $17 trillion. The United States doesn't need that oil to survive… but China does. And that's the point. As Trump enforces sanctions, tightens the blockade, and cuts China off from Venezuelan, Iranian, and Russian crude, the pressure is mounting. Political prisoners are being released. Oil revenue has collapsed. And the petrodollar—long dependent on Saudi Arabia—may be getting a brand-new source. This isn't invasion. It's leverage. And it may be the most ambitious energy strategy ever attempted.

    For many people, religion is a source of comfort — but what happens when it becomes a source of fear, shame, or lifelong anxiety? In this episode, author Cassandra Brandt shares her deeply personal journey through religious indoctrination, purity culture, and the hidden mental health consequences that followed her into adulthood.Cassandra unpacks the emotional toll of being raised in an evangelical Christian environment: fearing the end times as a child, internalizing guilt as a spiritual obligation, and believing mental illness was a sign of demonic influence. She explains how these messages shaped her anxiety, self-worth, relationships, and even her sense of identity.Listener takeaways The mental health impact of purity culture on girls and women why religious trauma is often dismissed — and why that's dangerous how religious indoctrination can create lifelong anxiety, guilt, and shame Through honesty and courage, Cassandra highlights the often ignored reality of religious trauma — what it looks like, why it's misunderstood, and why so many people struggle to talk about it without being dismissed as “anti-religion.” She also shares how therapy, education, and new philosophies helped her rebuild her life, develop healthier relationships, and raise her daughter without fear-based teachings.Whether you've experienced religious trauma or want to understand someone who has, this candid conversation sheds light on an uncomfortable but essential mental health topic.“Millions of people find peace in religion. I'm not trying to throw the baby out with the bathwater. But fundamentalist evangelical theology can truly and genuinely hurt people emotionally and intellectually when it's done in this fire and brimstone sort of way, especially toward children. You can tell a child a thousand sweet stories about Jesus, but the one that's going to stick out in their head is the one that you tell them about the hell that they're going to if they don't believe. Some children won't experience sleepless nights and terror about eternal damnation. Some adults won't experience trauma later. But others will.” ~Cassandra Brandt, religious trauma survivor Our guest, Cassandra Brandt is an author, advocate, and aspiring Stoic based in rural Arizona. A steelworker prior to a spinal cord injury in 2015, Cassandra now writes full time, blogging for disability publications and writing for literary magazines. Her multiple books are available on Amazon. Cassandra speaks against ableism and for equity, and believes in the rights of animals and our obligation to the Earth.

    Ocean carbon sequestration is failing because we are ignoring one of the ocean's most powerful climate allies, seaweed forests, and that blind spot could cost us precious time in the fight against climate change. This episode asks a simple but urgent question: how can one of the fastest-growing, most productive ecosystems on Earth still be missing from climate policy? Seaweed blue carbon challenges everything we think we know about how the ocean stores carbon, because kelp forests do not lock carbon in place, they move it. Scientists are now tracking how seaweed captures carbon near the coast and exports it to the deep ocean, where it can be stored for centuries, yet conservation frameworks have not caught up with this science. Kelp forests climate change reveals the emotional core of this story: we are losing ecosystems that protect biodiversity, support fisheries, and quietly help stabilize the climate, often without realizing their value until they are gone. The surprising insight is that seaweed may already be helping the climate far more than we give it credit for, but only if we choose to protect it.

    If today is your birthday, then Happy Birthday! The next one is just one year away – 365 sunrises and sunsets. If today is your birthday and you happen to be from Jupiter – well, Happy Birthday, and … we’re sorry. Your next one is almost 12 Earth years away – almost 10,500 sunrises and sunsets. The Jovian year is so long for a couple of reasons. First, the planet is more than five times farther from the Sun than Earth is. So its path around the Sun is more than five times longer than Earth’s. The second reason is the laws of orbital motion. The farther a planet is from the Sun, the slower its orbital speed. At Jupiter’s great range, it moves at less than half the speed of Earth. Ergo, one Jovian year lasts almost 12 Earth years. But to get all those sunrises and sunsets, you also have to factor in the length of a Jovian day. Although Jupiter is 11 times the diameter of Earth, it spins in a hurry – a day lasts less than 10 hours. Add it all up, multiply, divide, and carry the two, and – well, it’s a lot of days between birthdays on the Sun’s largest planet. Jupiter is especially vibrant now. It reaches opposition this weekend – it lines up opposite the Sun in our sky. It rises around sunset and is in view all night. The planet is also closest to us, so it shines at its brightest. In fact, in all the night sky right now, only the Moon outshines it. More about Jupiter tomorrow. Script by Damond Benningfield

    This week on the show, Tuddle and Kristin dive into the wildest ER stories — specifically the “I can't believe you put that there” category of hospital visits. They also debate whether anyone on Earth still writes checks, break down the nightmare scenario of a first date where she brings her kids and expects YOU to pay, and react to a city that's somehow complaining about the “offensive” smell coming from… a Dunkin' Donuts factory. It's chaos, caffeine, and questionable life choices.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
