Microdosing. Discount codes. Diet culture rebranded as self-care.In this episode, we unpack the latest "wellness" trend flooding your feed: microdosing GLP-1 medications like semaglutide and tirzepatide , and the influencers cashing in on it.GLP-1s were originally developed for diabetes and obesity, but now they're being sold as “longevity hacks,” and “tools for metabolic optimization”, often through affiliate links, telehealth loopholes, and wellness influencers promising everything but the moon.But here's the truth: this isn't health care. It's diet culture with a prescription pad and a commission check.We dive deep into:The rise of influencer-driven GLP-1 marketingHow GLP-1 telehealth companies are paying up to 40% commission per saleWhy this trend targets vulnerable women under the guise of wellnessThe ethical and regulatory mess brewing behind the scenesFDA/FTC concerns in the U.S.How this is 90's diet culture all over againAs always, if you are considering a GLP-1, please consult with your doctor and receive the guidance and support necessary - not an online pill mill that pays wellness influencers a commission on your health.Thank you Cured Nutrition for sponsoring our podcast!We LOVE Cured products and know you will, too!

In this episode we talk about the infamous disappearing Epstein Client List, Trump's legacy of appointing horrible people, and the role the MAGA Media Industrial Complex plays by blaming everyone but Trump just so they can keep their Grift going forward.

In this unfiltered episode, Shipwreck lets loose on everything from the Epstein files debacle to the explosion of EBT “haul” videos flaunting taxpayer-funded shopping sprees. She opens with raw frustration over Trump's dismissive response to Epstein questions and Pam Bondi's contradictory statements about evidence and sealed records, challenging listeners to stop gaslighting themselves about obvious corruption. Shifting gears, Shipwreck launches a blistering takedown of social media influencers proudly showing off carts loaded with junk food, luxury groceries, and birthday cakes bought with benefits while claiming to be struggling. She calls out the entitlement culture that normalizes dependence as virtue and proposes a “peer review board” where applicants would justify their aid to taxpayers directly. Ranting against corporate profiteering, like Amazon and Costco raking in billions from EBT purchases, she underscores how the middle class is quietly funding a system that incentivizes generational welfare. With humor, expletives, and a dose of Midwestern tough love, she insists it's possible to support safety nets without enabling abuse. This fiery episode is part catharsis, part call to accountability, and an unapologetic defense of common sense.
Absent an affirmative, godly political movement, we are headed down a dark path. Today, I explain how the hyper-conspiratorial online Right breaks the brains of people and, mixed with the grift motive, is acculturating a new generation into reactionary desperation. I tie together the theories behind Epstein and the Trump assassination attempt and how these same people who simped for Trump are now confronted with their own man going to the other end of the spectrum on some of their theories. Meanwhile, at the policy level, we continue suffering so many left-wing policies, often with the support of Trump, but there is no movement or strategy to counter it. This is creating a degenerative spiral in which the more the failure theater perpetuates leftist policy, economic, and cultural successes, the more desperate and conspiratorial the right becomes. I shudder to think we are headed for a “European Right” dynamic in which we get the governance of Mitch McConnell with the subculture of neo-Nazis. Learn more about your ad choices.

Herb Greenberg, editor of Herb Greenberg's Red Flag Alerts, tells the story of a stock scam that most recently centered on Ostin Technology, a Chinese company traded on the Nasdaq that recently popped to over $9 per share before losing 95 percent of its value in a single day. While the company is a cautionary tale for investors, Greenberg's bigger warning involves similar frauds that spring up around other companies overnight — that are fueled by investor greed and AI-powered fakery — which he describes as nearly impossible to stop or end in what he calls "the golden age of grift." Financial adviser Anthony Holds discusses the latest release from Northwestern Mutual's 2025 Planning & Progress Study, which showed that nearly 70 percent of Americans say financial uncertainty makes them depressed and anxious. Plus, in the Market Call, Dryden Pence, chief investment officer at Pence Capital Management, talks about finding stocks that benefit from being at the chokepoints in the supply chain for the next big thing.
How a sinister, secretive hate-group found acceptance in 1920s Oregon with its message of '100-percent Americanism' and pledges of a moral cleanup. But undertones of masked vigilantism were there from the very start. (Medford, Jackson County; 1920s) (For text and pictures, see https://offbeatoregon.com/1304b-ku-klux-klowns-kome-to-oregon.html)

Bookmark today's show as the Rosetta stone to understanding the hypocritical and feckless behavior of so much of the online Right. They might not influence the people, but they definitely influence the Trump White House. Today I explore why it is that they are lambasting Trump over a war that is under control and that they have suffered nothing for, but refuse to actually fight Trump on other betrayals that cut to the core of America First. The answer is that America First is just a slogan for their digital locker room where they create a self-licking ice cream cone of groupthink, demagoguery, and sophistry. So we get all the stupid and degeneracy, but never even achieve the stated objectives because they don't believe their own talking points. It's all a game. This is why, for example, they don't care that the Florida attorney general just bucked a federal judge, nor will they demand that Trump do the same. Learn more about your ad choices.

In today's foundational show, I cut to the core of why the Right is listless and devoid of a set of consistent beliefs or objectives on a single issue — yes, even on immigration. Trump has now come out in favor of more illegal slave workers as well as Chinese visas, but the “influencers” will slop up any dredge thrown in the trough. I weave in foreign policy, immigration, AI policy, China policy, and fiscal and economic policy to show how those who are devoid of beliefs in pursuit of rhetoric and talking points wind up subverting those very talking points in short order.

Segment 1 with Jerry Jamison starts at 0:00.In business, I have always been a sucker for a good grifter story- how people do it, why they do it and why people believe them in a game that relies on winning someone's confidence.Over a span of 39 years, 23 aliases, 28 arrests in 20 cities, and nearly a dozen imprisonments, Robert Spears had lived a con artists' life of unparalleled adventure and intrigue.. Shortly before Thanksgiving Day in 1959, a plane exploded in mid-air, killing all 42 passengers and crew and leaving scattered debris and bodies across the otherwise tranquil Gulf waters. Listed on the manifest was Dr. Robert Spears—once the highly regarded president of the Texas Naturopathic Association. Father of two small children with a lovely, society-minded wife and an elegant home in an exclusive neighborhood, it was a monumental tragedy for them as it was for all the souls lost that day.Less than two months later, Robert Spears miraculously “rose from the dead” in Phoenix where he was promptly arrested.Jerry Jamison is an award-winning advertising copywriter with more than thirty national writing commendations during his career.

Tommy and Ben are on the Trump corruption beat, including Vietnam's fast-tracking of a Trump golf project for favorable treatment, the administration pushing Elon Musk's Starlink on foreign countries, the president's grotesque dinner for buyers of his memecoin, and Cory Booker's embarrassing vote for Charles Kushner to be ambassador to France. Additionally, they talk about the reduction of National Security Council staff and how its operations are changing for the worse under Trump and the administration's hostility to international students.
