She notoriously parlayed a tie for fifth into a star turn on Fox News. But who's funneling money into the radicalization of Riley Gaines? And what's her dark past lurking beneath the surface? In partnership with PTFO, Madison Pauly from The Center for Investigative Reporting spent six months wading through the trans-athlete debate — then washed up with former teammates, NBA owners, merch... and a Supreme Court case that could change everything.• Read the full profile at Mother Jones(Pablo Torre Finds Out is independently produced by Meadowlark Media and distributed by The Athletic.

Episode Summary Welcome back to Grifty Pod. If you are listening to this episode without a helmet or a seatbelt, you are far braver than we are. This week felt like the entire nation had a stroke while standing upright. The Epstein documents dropped and inside that cursed file dump we discovered the soul bending phrase Trump and Bubba which was not on any of our bingo cards. Marjorie Taylor Greene tried to pick a political fistfight with Trump and it looked like two malfunctioning Roombas colliding in a hallway. Every headline seemed to be written by a bored demon trapped in a newsroom. So today we are taking you on a tour of American unreality. First we slide back into the nineties to revisit the DARE program which gave entire generations a deeply misplaced sense of safety. Then we blast forward to the current moment where right wing influencers are turning on their own in something called transvestigation which is exactly as deranged as it sounds. The circus is in town. Let us begin. What You'll Learn in This Episode The DARE Program and the Comforting Lie That Posters Fix Everything Charlie and Erika Kirk and the Digital Fever Dream of Transvestigations Is it A Grift? Real News or Fake Grift Fever Dream? The DARE Program and the Comforting Lie That Posters Fix Everything What DARE Was Selling The DARE program arrived in Los Angeles in 1983 and quickly metastasized into a national tradition. A smiling uniformed officer would walk into an elementary school classroom and deliver a series of highly scripted moral lectures about resisting drugs, alcohol and peer pressure. Children signed pledges. Children received neon yellow T shirts that glowed like irradiated dandelions. Children were assured that they were now fortified against the evils of the world. By the mid nineties DARE had infected more than seventy percent of school districts across the United States. It was not a curriculum so much as a branding operation. Parents adored it. Politicians bragged about it. The police treated it like a goodwill tour. The problem is that the entire thing did not work. Multiple meta analyses found that DARE had either no measurable effect on future drug use or effects so small they barely registered. A few studies found that students who completed DARE even experimented more possibly because children are curious, confused and easily entertained by forbidden concepts. The program was built on slogans rather than science. It substituted good intentions for meaningful intervention. It made addiction look like a moral failure instead of the complex social crisis it is. DARE was America in miniature. A shiny T-shirt pretending to be a solution. Why This Matters Today DARE is a perfect case study in institutional showmanship. It demonstrates our national desire for easy answers. It teaches us that if something feels helpful enough people will stop asking whether it is actually helpful. This is how grifts survive. This is how nostalgic myth becomes public memory. ⸻ Charlie and Erika Kirk and the Digital Fever Dream of Transvestigations What Transvestigation Actually Is Transvestigation is a conspiracy subculture devoted to claiming that public figures are secretly transgender. The reasoning is not medical, psychological or scientific. It is forensic fan fiction. These groups analyze photos of celebrities and politicians and apply invented rules about jaw shape collarbone angle shoulder width rib cage length wrist thickness and something they ominously call skull markers. There is no science behind it. There is no method behind it. There is only paranoia amplified by people who believe they are citizen detectives protecting the world from a conspiracy that does not exist. For years this fringe movement targeted women on the left. Michelle Obama was their white whale. They also went after celebrities like Taylor Swift, Meghan Markle, Serena Williams and Adele. Any woman with a strong jawline or athletic build was declared part of a secret gender agenda. The harassment has been relentless. But now the movement has turned inward. They have run out of enemies and begun pointing their microscopes at their own heroes. What They Are Saying About Erika Kirk According to the THEM article and recent digital surveillance here are the claims: They say her jawline fits what they insist is a male coded shape. They circulate side by side photos comparing her face to older images of male celebrities and trans women in transition even though none of the comparisons are coherent. They insist her collarbones sit too high and too straight. They point to photos where her shoulders look square in certain angles and treat this as biological evidence. They claim her wrists appear too thick in one photo where she is holding a water bottle. They argue that the way her thumb rests on a plastic bottle is masculine. This is considered a smoking gun in transvestigation circles. They point to her rib cage and claim it is too long for a woman which is a concept that has no scientific foundation but is treated as gospel by these content creators. Some go further. They say Erika Kirk is part of a hidden elite trans infiltration network. They call it the trans deception agenda. They never define it. They just insist it exists. What They Are Saying About Charlie Kirk The conspiracists accuse Charlie of similar fabricated markers. They say his shoulder to hip ratio aligns with what they consider feminized skeletal patterns. They claim his skull structure shows traits they have decided indicate a trans woman who transitioned early in life. They circulate old photos of him and create imaginary transition timelines like they are solving a case on CSI That Makes No Sense. They say his face changed shape over time and they treat normal aging as a covert biological anomaly. Why They Are Doing This The THEM article explains that this is what happens when you cultivate distrust as a political currency. The right wing has spent years fueling suspicion of trans people. They turned gender into a battlefield where everything is a clue and everyone is a suspect. Now the machine they built has turned back toward them. This is not about Charlie or Erika. This is about a conspiracy algorithm that can never be satisfied. When you reward content creators for uncovering hidden enemies eventually they will manufacture enemies from your own supporters. The Broader Crisis Transvestigation is not just ridiculous. It is dangerous. It treats gender identity like scandal material. It promotes body shaming disguised as detective work. It turns the public into unpaid inquisitors. And now the movement is eating itself alive. This is the logical endpoint of conspiracy thinking. When truth stops mattering the accusation becomes a spectacle. ⸻ GRIFTY GAME - Real News or Fake Grift Fever Dream? Three stories. One true. The other two were born from the national imagination which is not exactly a safe place to be. ⸻ That concludes our weekly descent into the archives of American absurdity. We covered nostalgia that never worked and conspiracy thinking that never will. The past is clownish. The present is unhinged. The future is unclear. Thank you for staying with us through the fog.

Summary This holiday season, your feed will be flooded with "must-have" wellness products — detox kits, powders, trackers, supplements, and miracle solutions promising to fix your stress, your hormones, and your sleep. But do we really need all of this stuff? In this episode, I'm breaking down how wellness has drifted away from its roots and turned into another form of consumerism — selling us insecurity in the name of self-care. I'll share how to spot wellness grifters, what real well-being actually looks like, and the few time-tested practices that still matter: acupuncture, baths, walks, nourishing meals, sleep, friends, hobbies, and joy. If your wellness routine involves 17 products, 5 subscriptions, 2 wearable tech devices, and credit card debt… it's not wellness — it's capitalism. Let's get back to what actually heals. Takeaways We live in a different society than thousands of years ago. The basics of well-being still apply today. Being outside in nature is crucial for health. Community and belonging are essential for well-being. Nourishing meals contribute significantly to health. Restful sleep is a fundamental aspect of well-being. Time spent with friends enhances quality of life. Engaging in hobbies brings joy and fulfillment. Strength training and movement are vital for physical health. Breath work is an important practice for overall wellness.

The Need-to-Know Morning Show on Tuesday opens with urgent weather news as Hurricane Melissa, a Category 5 storm, is making landfall in Jamaica with catastrophic winds sustained at 175 mph and gusts over 200 mph. The island is bracing for two to three feet of rain and a 10-to-15-foot storm surge.   The show's main political focus is the Schumer Shutdown as it approaches one month. Majority Leader John Thune is featured, responding to House Minority Whip Catherine Clark's admission that Democrats are letting American families "suffer" for "leverage". Thune condemns the Democrats' demands, which include $1.5 trillion in new spending and taxpayer-funded healthcare for illegal immigrants. The political segment also highlights the FBI foiling a plot to assassinate AG Pam Bondi, with the suspect being tied to violent rhetoric and having a history of felony stalking and domestic battery in Minnesota and Florida.   Finally, the show honors Fargo Police Officer Elliot Dugan for the Luther Family Ford Salute to Law Enforcement. Dugan, a Fargo native and Shanley High School graduate, discusses his career, including his recent start with the Red River Valley SWAT team and his role as a training instructor.   Standout Moments: 0:01:06 - Update on Hurricane Melissa's catastrophic impact with winds over 200 mph and feet of rain expected in Jamaica.   0:03:00 - Discussion on Democrats like Eric Swalwell demanding the destruction of Trump's White House ballroom after it's built.    0:09:56 - Senator John Thune highlights Democrats' "political leverage" strategy, stating they want families to suffer to push for illegal immigrant healthcare and other spending.    0:22:04 - FBI foils a plot to assassinate AG Pam Bondi; suspect linked to violent rhetoric and a history of stalking in Minnesota.   0:29:16 - Honoring Fargo Police Officer Elliot Dugan, who shares his experience as a training instructor and a member of the Red River Valley SWAT team.   0:33:04 - Final update on Hurricane Melissa: the western third of Jamaica will face the strongest winds, but the entire island is expected to have catastrophic damage.

A Giant Crypto Grift: Xbox Chief on His New Blockchain Thriller and Why Web3 Still Matters

Keen On Democracy

In the midst of today's AI hysteria, have we forgotten about blockchain technology and the seductive Web3 promise of decentralization? Robbie Bach, longtime Xbox chief and lieutenant of former Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer, certainly hasn't. In his new novel, The Blockchain Syndicate, the prescient Bach imagines not only a giant political crypto grift, but also warns about the siren song of Distributed Autonomous Organizations (DAOs). No, blockchain might not be as sexy or lucrative as LLMs these days - but Web3 still matters even if, as Bach suggests, its promise of a decentralized network remains more seductive than substantive.1. Crypto as “Giant Grift” Bach views cryptocurrency as a highly risky, speculative investment vehicle comparable to commodities like gold or silver, but warns there's “definitely a giant grift” happening, with vulnerable people—particularly older investors putting their savings at risk—being exploited by those taking advantage of the crypto craze.2. AI Bubble Will Burst (But Not Catastrophically) Bach believes we're in an AI investment bubble where valuations are unsustainable. He predicts a “sorting” of winners and losers over the next 12-18 months, with many AI investments failing to pay out, though he avoids the term “explosive pop” in favor of a more gradual reckoning.3. Blockchain: Powerful Tool, Double-Edged Sword Despite AI hype, Bach argues blockchain remains highly relevant and current. He sees it as neither inherently good nor bad—just a tool that can be used for legitimate purposes or criminal ones. He's particularly intrigued by its dual nature: ultimate transparency yet also ultimate obfuscation through anonymity.4. Microsoft's Secret Weapon: Adaptability Bach credits Microsoft's longevity to its ability to make “tectonic shifts” across generations—from DOS to Windows, to cloud computing, to AI. He argues this skill at navigating massive transitions under Gates, Ballmer, and Nadella is more impressive than any single product innovation.5. FBI and CIA Are Irreplaceable Bach emphasizes that regardless of political views about current leadership, institutions like the FBI and CIA are essential for national security with no viable replacement. If they're not working well, the solution is to fix them, not abandon them—a theme central to his thriller's premise.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

Guest host Steve Hallstrom fills in for Scott Hennen, co-piloting with Kevin Flynn, covering the absurdity of the federal government shutdown as it stretches into its third week. The hosts play audio of House Speaker Mike Johnson and Citizens United President Dave Bossie, who blast Democrats for prioritizing wasteful foreign aid and special-interest spending over funding the military and border security. The hosts reveal a hidden facet of the trade war with China: a potential tariff on "used cooking oil" (gutter oil), which hurts U.S. soybean farmers. Steve then interviews Minnesota gubernatorial candidate Kendall Qualls, an Army veteran and successful businessman, who presents a common-sense, three-part plan to defeat Tim Walz and restore "normal" to Minnesota by cutting taxes, fighting crime, and fixing education.   Political Hypocrisy and the Shutdown Democrat Sabotage: The hosts and guests condemn Democrats for engaging in "performative stunts" and holding out on a clean funding bill for "pure politics". They point out that Schumer's stated goal is to "fix the health care crisis looming over the American people" , which the hosts believe is a fight solely to fund health care for illegal immigrants. Exposing Wasteful Spending: Mike Johnson and Dave Bossie list examples of the Democrats' "reckless" spending that Republicans are trying to cut, including: $24.6 million to "climate resilience in Honduras" $13.4 million for "civic engagement in Zimbabwe" $3.9 million for "LGBTQI democracy grants in the Balkans" Consequences for Americans: Farmers are unable to cash hundreds of thousands of dollars in checks because the FSA (Federal Crop Lending) offices are closed. Mike Johnson warns that the Democrats' choice is causing "real personal and economic strain" for troops, TSA, and air traffic controllers. Fetterman's Common Sense: Senator John Fetterman is praised as a reasonable Democrat for publicly stating that conservative Trump supporters are "not fascists" or trying to destroy the Constitution.   Trade, Agriculture, and China The Gutter Oil Threat: President Trump threatened to place a 100% tariff on goods, specifically "used cooking oil," coming from China. Hurting U.S. Farmers: This used cooking oil is often called "gutter oil" in China. While it is not imported for direct food use, it's used as a cheap ingredient (one-third the price of soybean oil) in biofuel production. The hosts and callers argue that banning this oil would boost demand and prices for U.S. soybeans. Bison Rankings: The NDSU Bison football team is ranked number 38 in…
