A.M. Edition for Aug. 17. For the second time in three days, NATO warplanes on Sunday were forced to shoot down a drone in alliance airspace. WSJ Brussels bureau chief Daniel Michaels says that while electronic jamming could make the drone incursions an accident, some countries fear Russia is deliberately probing European air defenses. Plus, the Colorado River's water crisis worsens as Lake Powell joins Lake Mead at record lows. And we'll look at the race among job seekers to write AI experience into their résumés.

JT Follows JC joins Nephilim Death Squad for a wide-ranging conversation connecting UFO disclosure, alien encounters, the Nephilim, the Book of Enoch, MKUltra, Project Monarch, Tartaria, old world architecture, artificial intelligence, and Biblical prophecy through a Christian worldview.David Lee Corbo, Matthew Heppner, and JT Follows JC (Joe Telford) begin by discussing JT's journey from working in construction to creating content full-time. That background leads directly into questions surrounding Tartaria, Greco-Roman architecture, Gothic cathedrals, cymatics, frequency, resonance, hidden technology, mysterious stonework, and seemingly impossible construction timelines. Could previous civilizations have understood sound, vibration, energy, and architecture differently than we do today?The conversation then turns toward UFO disclosure and the modern alien narrative. The guys analyze Spielberg's Disclosure Day, alien abduction experiences, astral simulation theories, Skinwalker mythology, MKUltra, Project Monarch, trauma-based dissociation, and occult symbolism appearing throughout movies and television. From Zoolander and Gravity Falls to Stranger Things, they ask whether entertainment is simply fiction—or conditioning audiences to interpret spiritual phenomena through a different framework.Could AI eventually replace the alien invasion narrative? Why are discussions about demons, the Nephilim, and the Book of Enoch becoming increasingly mainstream? The episode explores Tucker Carlson, modern disclosure conversations, the Anunnaki narrative, the Watchers, Greek mythology, The Odyssey, and possible Biblical parallels involving fallen spiritual beings.The final section goes deep into Scripture and theology: Pharaoh's hardened heart, free will, predestination, manufactured prophecy, Israel, replacement theology versus fulfillment, Rahab, Ruth, Passover, the mixed multitude, hyssop, Jesus Christ, the Book of Life, and once saved always saved.Finally, the guys return to the central question: Are alien and UAP encounters actually demonic or spiritual phenomena masquerading as something physical?What do you think—physical extraterrestrials, demonic deception, psychological manipulation, or something even more complicated? Join the discussion in the comments.Listen on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and everywhere podcasts are available.► Subscribe for more Biblical analysis, Christian worldview discussions, and conspiracy research through a Biblical lens.JT Follows JC — LinksAll Links / Linktree:https://linktr.ee/jtfollowsjcYouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@jtfollowsjcInstagram:https://www.instagram.com/jtfollowsjc/X / Twitter:https://x.com/jtfollowsjcTikTok:https://www.tiktok.com/@jt_follows_jcFacebook:https://www.facebook.com/JTFOLLOWSJCRumble:https://rumble.com/user/jtfollowsjcSpotify – JT's Mix Tape:https://open.spotify.com/show/2y27vDkaiRVtXkBXAdDo6HAncient Angels:https://www.ancientangelsmovie.com/00:00 Intro: Brohemian Grove VIP Eve01:23 Meet JT Follows JC03:54 From Construction to Full-Time Content Creator06:00 Tartaria, Old World Buildings & Meltology11:48 Hoover Dam, Symbolism & Secret Societies13:38 Cymatics, Frequency & Cathedral Architecture16:08 Impossible Old World Construction Timelines?21:57 UFO Disclosure & Hidden Technology23:47 Spielberg's Disclosure Day & the Alien Narrative30:24 Astral Simulation & Alien Abductions36:11 Project Monarch, MKUltra & Trauma Programming39:34 Are Aliens Demons?

Save big on Vegas with Las Vegas Advisor — get 10% off a membership with code MTM (new members, affiliate): lasvegasadvisor.com Hoover Dam suddenly closed for emergency repairs with almost no explanation, which is unsettling when road repairs are usually planned years out, and it comes as Lake Mead sits at 1,041 feet, roughly a foot above its all time low, with projections down to 1,009 feet by June 2029. The A's sold off two more slices of the team to fund the ballpark, bringing in Mark Cuban and a group led by Chan Ho Park that includes Ken Jeong, which is about as Vegas as it gets. UNLV's basketball coach also went semi viral suggesting you could buy the Running Rebels for 10 to 12 million instead of the A's, and the school leaned into the joke before walking it back. Hard Rock started its most serious light testing yet on the guitar tower, we look at a great 1991 view from the Mirage toward the volcano, and Golden Gate showed off room 328, a special request only twin bed room that looks a lot like a hostel. Plus Boxabl, the North Las Vegas tiny home maker, went public on the NASDAQ, Club Fortune North opened in the old Poker Palace with a solid renovation, and Bill Krackomberger dropped some genuinely honest advice about gambling that more influencers should be giving. We close with the Iron Mike Legacy immersive experience taking over the old Flamingo buffet space this fall, with tickets from $59 to $129.

A Trip Born from a Train Obsession (and Family History) Ryan has had his eye on the Rocky Mountaineer since 2018, when he first heard about their Canadian Rockies routes at a travel conference. Add in a grandfather who was a train engineer between South Bend and Chicago, and a new Canyon Spirit line running from Salt Lake City to Denver — it was only a matter of time. About a year ago, Ryan brought the idea to his parents, and six months before departure, it was officially booked. The result: three trips in one — Las Vegas, the Mighty Five National Parks of Utah, and a two-day train journey from Moab to Denver, with the 4th of July spent riding the rails on the 250th birthday of the United States.Las Vegas: More Than Just the Casinos Ryan, his wife Jasmine, and his parents stayed at Park MGM — smoke-free, well-connected to the strip via tram, and conveniently the pickup point for their Hoover Dam tour and Mighty Five transfer. Day one was a hop-on, hop-off bus tour to orient the first-timers, covering the old strip, new strip, and Fremont Street. A word of caution from Ryan: know exactly what you're buying. Their "24-hour pass" ran from 10 AM to 5 PM and only circled one direction — worth knowing in advance. Day two was a VIP Hoover Dam tour, complete with a comedian-guide who grew up in the area, a descent into the dam's tunnels to see the power plant and turbines, and bridge views overlooking the dam. Lunch was included. Total time: about 8 AM to 2 PM — leaving the evening free for dinner and a little fun.A Few Vegas Tips Worth Knowing The airport is a 10-minute Uber from most strip hotels. Ubers and Lyfts are easy and reliable. And a heads-up for anyone who hasn't been in a while: Las Vegas has fully reinvented itself as an entertainment city — the 99-cent buffets are long gone, and the price tag reflects it. Budget accordingly.The Mighty Five: Zion, Bryce Canyon, Capitol Reef, Arches, and Canyonlands All five parks are in Utah, and Ryan's group covered them in three days through Moab Express — a highly recommended tour company operating out of 12-passenger vans with a guide who doubles as driver. Groups of eight, stops every hour and a half, snacks and water onboard, and a guide named Ben who could riff on geology, history, or nature depending on what you wanted. The pacing was relaxed — visitor centers, photo stops, souvenir shops, and a few short hikes on day three. Not a trip for serious hikers, but absolutely the right vehicle for first-time park visitors who want to see a lot without driving themselves. Meals were included, accommodations ranged from a well-kept Best Western Plus in Bryce to the Hoodoo Hilton (Curio Collection) in Moab, and the only out-of-pocket cost was alcohol. Each park managed to one-up the last — from the red-rock drama of Zion to the alien hoodoos of Bryce Canyon to the staggering scale of Canyonlands, which Ryan says rivals the Grand Canyon.Where in the World?

Adam Carolla joins Chris and Erik this week and gives the real state of the fire rebuilds: why the Palisades is slowly coming back while Malibu sits frozen behind the Coastal Commission, million-dollar septic upgrades, and foundations that need 300 concrete trucks before a single stud goes up. He also live-critiques an Instagram container house build, tells the legendary Man Show clam chowder story that ended a bachelor party at the Spearmint Rhino, and remembers the year Eminem bought everyone Taco Bell. Plus fake meat paranoia, why nobody cares about aliens anymore, billionaire bunkers, the Sam Altman whistleblower interview, and the carpenter mindset shift that explains why Adam will never retire.0:00 Intro2:38 Welcoming Adam Carolla4:34 Fire rebuilds: Palisades, Malibu & the Coastal Commission10:21 Venice, the Hoover Dam & how anything got built13:59 Adam critiques an Instagram container house build20:23 Food poisoning stories: the Man Show chowder & Taco Bell with Eminem30:10 Fast food rules & fake meat32:38 Why nobody cares about aliens anymore43:40 Billionaire bunkers & the Sam Altman interview54:25 Never retiring & the carpenter mindset1:00:46 Soccer vs. basketball1:06:10 Wrap-up & tour datesGet two extra episodes every month at https://Patreon.com/TheGoldenHourPodcastTo submit to the show email: thegoldenhoursubs@gmail.com or Dropbox Link: https://www.dropbox.com/request/fqtbexhxyaky9X8f8MV1In the subject line, specify whether your submission is King It or Sting It, Debate Club, Rip My Drip, Relationship Advice, or Flaunt My Aunt.

What do the Hoover Dam, the Golden Gate Bridge, and the Interstate Highway System have in common?

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the show—where sharp comedy cuts through the noise, and unapologetic conservatism fuels the fire. This is your daily dose of truth with a punchline, because loving America isn't just allowed—it's required.The 250th anniversary of the United States of America. Even the Brits are quietly glad we kicked their butts 250 years ago after seeing what we built. Who wouldn't celebrate this great country? A nation that survived two world wars, economic storms, and at least two spectacularly clueless presidents: Barack Obama and Joe Biden. If we can survive those two clowns, we can survive anything—including the mess they left behind.I was already energized about our country, but this weekend I had to reroute some of that power straight to the grid. Melissa dragged me out to Hoover Dam hours before sunset to watch that massive flag light up—the one the size of a football field, draped across that engineering marvel for America250. I grumbled the whole drive—until we hit the bridge. Truckers blasting horns, cars joining in, people from every corner of the world standing shoulder to shoulder, speaking every language. Pure, electric American pride. We left around 8:45, and there was already a three-mile backup of folks who wouldn't make it. Melissa looked at me and said, “See? I told you!” She was right. And from what I hear, it's packed like that every night.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

More than just a place to refuel, Americas largest truck stop is a massive, self-contained highway metropolis that single-handedly powers the nations supply chain while serving as a cultural sanctuary for the drivers moving our world. In this special mid-tour episode of Own the Road, Kelli and Bob Phillips map out the incredible six-month journey ahead as they continue their mission to explore 250 years of American history, culture, and jaw-dropping landscapes across all 50 states. From the cutting edge of the space age to the opulence of the Gilded Age, the second half of this itinerary is diving deep into the heartbeat of America. Hidden within the ridges of East Tennessee, Oak Ridge—the "Secret City"—stands as a monumental site of American ingenuity and ethical weight, where a city was built overnight to change the course of history and usher the world into the Atomic Age. A monumental triumph of American grit over nature, the Hoover Dam stands as a concrete titan that tamed the Colorado River, sparking the rise of the modern West and serving as an enduring symbol of the nation's ability to engineer the impossible during its darkest hours.

Most people groan, avoid, or delegate when problems hit. Darren Hardy makes the case that this instinct is costing them serious money. In this episode of DarrenDaily On-Demand, he draws on the story of Henry Kaiser, who built 100+ companies in the 1930s and 40s by hunting problems others refused to touch, including constructing the Hoover Dam and cutting Liberty ship build time from 355 days to 14. Amazon, Apple, and Uber each built their empires on the same principle: market value equals the size of problems you can solve. Get more personal mentoring from Darren each day.

What began as a simple question, "Can we light it up and make it a wow?" quickly turned into a race against time as the team navigated complex technical challenges, rigging logistics, weather concerns, and the sheer scale of one of America's most iconic structures.The conversation explores how rapid decision-making, deep technical knowledge, and seamless collaboration between lighting and rigging teams made the project possible. From receiving the call to standing at the dam just two hours later, the story highlights the importance of preparation, adaptability, and trust when executing high-stakes live event productions.Whether you're a production professional or simply fascinated by what happens behind the curtain, this episode offers a compelling look at how creativity and technical expertise come together to transform an engineering marvel into a breathtaking visual spectacle.This episode is brought to you by Main Light, Delicate Productions and Artistry In Motion

Real beauty is timeless, and so should be the architectural masterpieces of humanity, right? Well, some of them do have a chance to survive for centuries from now. When you stroll into the Pantheon in Rome, it puts on a show just like it did almost two thousand years ago. Then we've got the impressive Hoover Dam in the USA, designed to harness hydroelectricity and prevent water from going where it shouldn't. While it's not a single building, the Great Wall of China is an ancient marvel that has survived for centuries. And, luckily, it's just the beginning of the list. Learn more about your ad choices.

Hidden within the ridges of East Tennessee, Oak Ridge—the "Secret City"—stands as a monumental site of American ingenuity and ethical weight, where a city was built overnight to change the course of history and usher the world into the Atomic Age. A monumental triumph of American grit over nature, the Hoover Dam stands as a concrete titan that tamed the Colorado River, sparking the rise of the modern West and serving as an enduring symbol of the nation's ability to engineer the impossible during its darkest hours. The Bennington Museum stands as a vital sanctuary for the American rural identity, preserving the rustic, soulful legacy of Grandma Moses—a woman who proved it's never too late to become a national icon by painting the simple, enduring beauty of the American dream. As a unique guardian of the American story, Colma stands as a sprawling, hallowed necropolis where the "silent" population outnumbers the living a thousand to one, preserving the ancestral heritage and diverse history of the West in a landscape dedicated entirely to the legacy of those who built it.

Dave talks about spotting the Hoover Dam... and how he was able to identify it from 30k feet in the air...

America at 250: What Exactly Are We Celebrating? | Kitchen Talk With Karel America is about to celebrate its 250th birthday… but what exactly are we celebrating? This week, a massive American flag was draped across Hoover Dam to launch the America 250 festivities. But as drought, climate change, political division, attacks on civil rights, and economic anxiety continue to reshape the country, Karel asks the uncomfortable question many Americans are quietly thinking: Is America truly something to celebrate right now? Broadcasting from the kitchen, Karel mixes food, commentary, politics, history, and real talk as he prepares soup and dives into the contradictions of modern America. From the drying of Lake Mead to the growing divide in the nation, this episode of Kitchen Talk is part cooking show, part social commentary, and completely unfiltered. What does patriotism even mean in 2026? And can a country celebrate freedom while so many feel left behind?

And now, your hosts Speaker 6: Welcome to the Uptime Wind Energy podcast. I’m your host, Allen Hall, and I’m here with three other people, Matthew Stead, Rosemary Barnes, and, uh, Yolanda Padron down in Texas. Uh, we’re all getting ready to go to American Clean Power in Houston, Texas, where it will be practically 150 degrees and 99% humidity, and we’re all looking forward to those warm, wet days that we will spend It is very similar to New Orleans. New Orleans was also very warm and very humid. So there’s a trend going on here with American Clean Power, although we were up in Minneapolis not too long ago, uh, but I guess we were in Phoenix too, so we gotta find a middle ground, everybody. Can we go someplace like– [00:01:00] Rosemary says we should always go to the Maldives, Tahiti. I got a lot of requests from Tahiti from people. We never go there. We never go to Hawaii.  Rosemary Barnes: I’ve suggested Hawaii so many times, and I’ve been told that Americans are not gonna be given permission from their manager to go to Hawaii.  Speaker 6: It’s kinda like Las Vegas.  Rosemary Barnes: Maybe one day we’ll make it to San Diego or something and get, um, beach adjacent facility And if your presentation is too boring, then everyone will be at the beach. So that will be how we ensure quality control of the speakers, which is a big problem at these events now, right? Like you can’t, um, there’s– It’s more like the norm is fairly boring sales pitches rather than informative discussion.  Speaker 6: We used to have OMNS, when I say we, I mean the wind community used to have OMNS out in San Diego in Coronado at the Del Coronado is, I think that’s the hotel name. And the one time that I went, I think I’ve been [00:02:00] there, I would say one time, uh, everybody was outside on the, at the beach, basically on the patio. So they’re holding all these talks and discussions, and it’s… I’m looking around, it’s like me and five other people. Everybody else is out there next to the water. So they had a problem with that. So I guess what they figured, either make it really cold or make it really hot, so it forces everybody into the climate-controlled conditions of, uh, the, uh, auditorium to watch the speakers. Maybe that’s the, the plan. All right. Let’s, let’s, let’s talk about what happened with NextEra and Dominion because there’s going to be a huge merger. So if you thought utility business was boring, it’s not anymore. NextEra announced a sixty-seven billion dollar all-stock deal to acquire Dominion Energy, a move that would create the largest regulated electricity utility in the world by market cap. Uh, [00:03:00] the combined company would serve about ten million customers accounts across Florida, Virginia, North Carolina, where I’m based, and South Carolina with one hundred and ten gigawatts of generation across renewables, nuclear, and natural gas. Uh, but the real driver here is data centers, of course. Dominion sits in the heart of Virginia’s data center alley, where it has connected more than four hundred and fifty data centers, and NextEra is building thirty data center hubs through its NextEra Energy Resources subsidiary and has partnered with Google Cloud on paired generation campuses. So together, they would control about a hundred and thirty gigawatts of large load pipeline. And the question is whether the regulators will let it happen. And I think that’s, having watched some of the news articles over the last several days, uh, the news broke pretty much Sunday morning or late Saturday night that this was happening and [00:04:00] The first thing that came to mind, are the regulators going to let it happen? And the concern is going to be, and you can well imagine how this plays out, they’re going to drag Dominion and NextEra up to Washington, D.C. and berate them about how electricity rates cannot increase due to data centers. And if they don’t swear to that, then this merger won’t happen. That’s my interpretation of what’s about to happen. It may not, but how does this play out? How does everybody else on the team at Uptime see this play out?  Matthew Stead: Seems like a good idea to me. So more economies, more geographic diversity, more opportunity for renewables.  Yolanda Padron: I can’t speak to Dominion, um, but being relatively close to the NextEra engineering team, they, they really know their stuff, right? So I think it’s something that should kind of give us a, a sense of relief here that it, [00:05:00] it’s a big team, but it’s a really smart and competent team taking over a big undertaking.  Speaker 6: You would like to see renewables and data centers work together. This would be the perfect match of the two, right? The, the largest renewable owner management company, along with the biggest data center, uh, region. Connecting those two would make infinite sense, but in the, our political environment today in the United States, that may be the reason to oppose it.  Matthew Stead: Yeah, why would it be a bad idea?  Speaker 6: Windmills, Matthew. Windmills. Windmills are bad. Can’t even call them wind turbines anymore. They’re windmills.  Rosemary Barnes: I used to mock people for saying windmill instead of wind turbine, but then when I moved to Denmark, um, you know, who, you know, have a firm, firm ownership of modern wind energy, or at least did back 10, 20 years ago They say windmill when they speak English. Um, the Danish word for it is vindmølle, um, which means windmill. [00:06:00]And so I can’t… I couldn’t maintain that, that energy because like, am I gonna, am I gonna mock these, you know, like everybody at that company knew more about wind energy than I did. Am I gonna mock them for not, not knowing the difference between a windmill and a wind turbine? No. So yeah, that’s, that’s something that I, I don’t do anymore.  Matthew Stead: That is really valuable to know, um, Rosie. I must admit, I did not know that, and I would mock people saying w- windmill, so thank you for setting me straight.  Rosemary Barnes: Yeah, there are plenty of, um, plenty of people who don’t know the difference between a windmill and a wind turbine and think, “Oh, why you only got three blades with so much air between them? You know, you’re gonna… Y- if you would just put twice as many blades, you’d get twice as many energy. Everybody who works in wind energy is just an obs- obvious complete and utter idiot.” Um, so there’s that kind of person, but then there’s also the industry. Another fun fact that they call the blades wings. Uh, um, yeah, in Danish they call them blade wings, which they are. [00:07:00] Speaker 6: In Spanish, isn’t it shovels? ‘Cause when I always translate those, uh, Spanish questions over to English, it always comes out shovel. At least early on, y- the early versions of Google Translate would translate it to shovel. Like, what are they talking about shovel on a wind turbine? That doesn’t make any sense.  Yolanda Padron: Yeah, like a shovel or a stick or like a, what you row with.  Speaker 6: Oh, like an oar. Okay, that makes a lot more sense. Okay. Thank you, Yolanda.  Matthew Stead: I think it’s really interesting that, um- We don’t have much material on NextEra, Dominion. Um, yeah, we just don’t think it’s a good– We all think it’s a good idea. There’s no controversy here.  Speaker 6: Oh, there’ll be controversy. Don’t worry about that. There’s always controversy. Welcome to America.  Matthew Stead: But among the four of us-  Speaker 6: We all think it’s great.  Rosemary Barnes: Well, it’s, um, I mean, some of the interesting facts that I read was that they’ve got 130 gigawatts of load, um, that they’re bringing to the table, and 51 gigawatts of that is contracted data centers. So that’s, that’s interesting. [00:08:00] And I think large amounts of new data centers on the grid are controversial because in– if you’re not very, very careful about how you integrate them, then you can end up just making electricity more expensive for everybody in the area that doesn’t necessarily get, you know, profit sharing from the data center. So, um, I think that, uh, like, you know, the wind ind- in the wind industry, we’ve obviously been through and are still in the phase of where social license, um, community acceptance is one of the most important things, maybe the most important thing when you’re developing a new project. And I think that we’re just at the start of that realization for data centers as well. Companies that are building the, the data centers, they need to do more than what’s required of them because otherwise they have big risks of project delays. It’s millions of dollars delay, um, for the delay for, um, yeah, for every, every day that, um, a data center is held up. And so how can you afford to risk annoying anybody? [00:09:00] You know, you just wanna be like the just, just perfect, um, addition to the community so that everybody is just happy and, and lets the project proceed. So, yeah, I thought– think that that’s, that’s quite an interesting aspect that I think I’m gonna s- we’re gonna see changing as, you know, all these planned data centers become real data centers. There’s a real risk that everybody hates data centers soon as much as they, um, hated wind tur- um, wind farms for a while.  Yolanda Padron: For the consumer, aren’t there, like, I don’t know if they’re in Virginia, but aren’t there price caps too for the market? When you’re– When it comes to how expensive the megawatt hour is? Speaker 6: Not necessarily. Re- remember that AEP in Ohio, uh, was requiring data centers to buy electricity at a certain amount. Because they both basically committed not to raise prices for electricity to the local communities, and that would be really hard to do. And okay, great, if, if they can pull it off, awesome. But there’s already a lot of [00:10:00] pushback about it, and it hasn’t even gotten to the point of being real yet, so it’s only gonna get worse. I see. And all the data centers are gonna be up in space no matter what. Everybody’s talking about building data centers on the ground. There’s no shot that that’s gonna happen. I’m just telling you, ’cause they can’t do it. They don’t– They can’t build gas turbines fast enough. There’s just limitations there, and transformers and everything else. It’s gonna be in space. It’s so much easier.  Yolanda Padron: And all the approvals you have to get and everything.  Speaker 6: It will be easier to do it in space In space, you don’t have neighbors. Matthew Stead: I said it before, it’s just crazy. The key issue around data centers is it’s actually the transmission rather than generation. I mean, you know, at least in Australia, and correct me if I’m wrong, Rosie, but you know, less than half the price in Australia is generation. The other half is sort of retail and transmission and this and that. And so actually, you know, the generation cost shouldn’t really increase. It’s really the transmission and the, the poles and the wires, which are the problem. And [00:11:00] you know, to your point, Rosie, social, social license for poles and wires.  Rosemary Barnes: I’m actually really surprised at Allen, ’cause normally, Allen and I have this, um, you know, we’ve played out this scenario probably 50 or 100 times over the, over the years with emerging technologies, and it’s always me that’s like, “You know what? I think, uh, I think there’s something to this one.” Um, and Allen always poo-poos it, and in this case, Allen’s, Allen’s excited. I, I’m on Allen’s– So I also, I also think space data centers is, is a thing that’s more likely to happen than not, at least to some extent. Um, so yeah, but I think, Matt, you’ve got the more mainstream opinion. Speaker 6: The voice of the common man. I  Yolanda Padron: think for all of our listeners out there, this is the first time Rosie and Allen agree on anything, so round of applause team.  Speaker 6: It won’t last long, Yolande.  Rosemary Barnes: It’s not true because, you know, nine out of 10 new technologies I also think are stupid. Um, so Allen and I agree on the bulk of them, but then of that one in 10, you know, nine out of 10 of those I, I [00:12:00] like and Allen doesn’t, so this is the, you know, the one-tenth of the one-tenth, so. Speaker 6: I don’t like gas turbines. Can we all agree we don’t like gas turbines? It’s– That would be insane to scale.  Rosemary Barnes: You know what? I, I don’t have a particular problem with gas, gas turbines. I don’t want a lot of new gas turbines. Um, I guess that that’s– We can all agree on, on that. I don’t think the– I think we have most of the gas turbines that we need, or at least, um, will in the next couple of years. And, um, yeah, I do think that their existence supports faster electrification, um, and faster growth of wind and solar. So I’m definitely not someone that wants to see all gas turbines turned off tomorrow.  Speaker 6: No, I don’t, I don’t want to turn them off. I’m  Matthew Stead: just saying you can’t get to scale. Speaker 6: Delamination and bond line failures in blades are difficult problems to detect early. These hidden issues can cost you millions in repairs and lost energy production. CIC NDT are specialists to detect these critical flaws before they become [00:13:00] expensive burdens. Their non-destructive test technology penetrates deep into blade materials to find voids and cracks traditional inspections completely miss. CIC NDT maps every critical defect, delivers actionable reports, and provides support to get your blades back in service. So  Matthew Stead: visit cicndt.com because catching blade problems early will save you  Speaker 6: millions. Well, for the first time, five Chinese turbine manufacturers have all individually outpaced Danish wind giant Vestas in annual installations. Goldwind topped the global list with twenty-nine point seven gigawatts installed in twenty twenty-five. Behind them, Envision put up twenty-one point eight, Windy nineteen point eight, Mingyang at eighteen point six, and Sany at fifteen point one gigawatts. Vestas came in [00:14:00] sixth at twelve point nine gigawatts. The Chinese dominance was fueled by an enormous domestic market that has accounted for about ninety-four percent of those five manufacturers’ sales. Uh, but exports are obviously growing out of China too. The five captured nearly sixty percent of the hundred and seventy-eight gigawatts installed globally in twenty twenty-five, a year that saw the world market grow forty percent over twenty twenty-four. So Vestas still holds the crown for cumulative installations at two hundred and one gigawatts, but the gap in annual volume is now almost impossible to ignore. So Vestas has a lot of competition over in China. The, the amount of, uh, gigawatts coming out of the largest manufacturers in China is quite impressive, almost, well, more than double than what, uh, Vestas is doing, and Vestas is doing a pretty brisk business. What are, what are the outcomes of this, everyone? Is, can this be sustained in China [00:15:00] for very much longer? Can they continue to, to create at, at that rate?  Rosemary Barnes: Yes. Okay, move, move on to the next segment  Speaker 6: Well, that’s a, that’s a huge amount of gigawatts coming out of China. And if 94% of it’s staying in China, eventually you run out of China to put wind turbines in. Rosemary Barnes: They– I mean, we’re a long way from running out of places in China to put wind turbines in, because China is gigantic. A lot of it is not that populated. They’ve got a lot of offshore area still. But I just think it’s gonna follow the same playbook as, as solar probably, where you see, you know, early on heaps of domestic market, which is totally rock solid because it’s not relying on people to see a positive business case in doing it. You know, like it’s really… You know, targets are, are really mandated and people make sure that they are met. Um, and then the incentives are also different as well. Like my understanding is that [00:16:00] there’s a lot of incentives about installation of megawatts, um, and then, you know, the, the operation is like, we’ll figure that out as we go. The volume, the number of manufacturers that are there, they’ve got, you know, like such a great supply chain all there in the same area, so you can move fast and like I, I don’t see anything can get in the way of, you know, continuing to pump out these turbines at that speed. It’ll keep going until, you know, the government basically decides we’ve got, uh, enough wind energy now and then puts the, the brakes on it. And, you know, that’s what we’ve just been through in solar recently. China is, um… You know, they’ve just– they’ve got a big economy and they’ve just got like rock solid resolve to follow through on, on things that they commit to. Um, whether we can, you know, argue about whether it’s a smart strategy or not, but you know that they will follow it, they will execute on, on it. I don’t think anyone would, would say that they won’t. So I think, [00:17:00]can it continue forever? No. But do I think it can continue for another 10 years? Yes. And is that long enough to cause massive problems for any other manufacturer? I think also yes.  Matthew Stead: Hey, Rosie, can I ask you a question? You know, obviously there was some cable was proposed, you know, between Australia and Singapore. Do you see China going in that direction? You know, putting rather than pipes with gas in it, um, pipes with electrons? Uh,  Rosemary Barnes: I don’t see China– I’m actually working on a video at the moment about a global sub-sea grid, and I just interviewed, um, uh, Xlinks, you know, that was originally a project from Morocco to the UK, and then the other one, which is super cool, um, we might have an argument about the plausibility of it, is NATO L, which is just in like early development stages. It’s going to connect the UK to Canada. Um, and yeah, so that’s, um, a few thousand kilometers long. The ocean depth is maximum [00:18:00] three, I think, kilometers, maybe even a tiny bit more than that, um, which is like right on the edge of what is possible. N-none of those projects really actually rely on big technological improvements. Um, they’re possible with today’s technologies. Um, but I don’t see China doing so much of that. I think that one thing that might actually stop that is that, um, when you have big interconnectors like that, I think the engineering part is not the hard, the hard part. I think that the, it’s the politics. I do see them exporting their, um, you know, they’ve got really good ultra high voltage DC technology, but the transmission lines, they have exported a little bit. There’s some projects in Brazil that are Chinese made. There’s one in India. I don’t actually know if that is Chinese made, but you know, like I could really imagine them also rolling out projects in Africa, for example. Um, but beyond that sort of thing, I, I wouldn’t tip China as the country to, you know, develop a global [00:19:00] sub-sea grid. Speaker 6: Do you think the low solar prices have hurt the wind manufacturers in China a little bit? Obviously, there’s a lot of solar panels that are able to be shipped immediately, which is what’s happening right now. But turbines, not so much. It’s a little harder to do. But you, you would think that a lot of these countries and communities would be putting in wind But solar is so cheap right now that, that is what is winning at the moment, and it must be hurting the Chinese wind manufacturers, you would think. Rosemary Barnes: I don’t think they’re really in a competition with each other, um, at the moment. In Australia, I think yes. I think that, um, the, like, roaring success of solar and especially batteries is, um, making wind less appealing to develop. But globally, I think that it’s, you know, it’s a race between, um, fossil fuels and renewables. It’s a race between energy security and continued reliance on, you know, countries that [00:20:00] you don’t really want to rely on for fossil fuels. I think that those are the, the much bigger, um, competition at the moment. It’s a bit short-sighted because, yeah, wind and solar is really easy for the, the part of the, uh, energy transition that we’re doing now, and, uh, if you just don’t build any wind until you reach the limit of solar and batteries, then you’ll find yourself quite far behind. So that’s what we’re really struggling with in Australia and finding, like, what is the right level of government, um, support because people… You know, like in an electricity market like Australia, you’re not supposed to rely on governments, you know, planning out the system and deciding what thing to build, and I think that that has been a real strength of the Australian market that it has, you know, the government has got out of the way. It is hard to see, um, us getting to where we need to go in a orderly fashion without some planning for this, like, lumpy middle part of the energy transition. I don’t know. What do you think, Matt? Is that how you see it in Australia as well?  Matthew Stead: Yeah, I think there’s a place [00:21:00] for everything, and, you know, wind, solar, battery is a perfect match and the right places for the right thing. Rosemary Barnes: It’s really hard because, you know, like, when you look at the system as a whole, you know, like you plan out what, what full energy system is cheaper and better, you know. Is it the, you know, the current fossil fuel system and all of the, you know, annual maintenance and, um, improvements like, um, extensions that need to go along with that to support, you know, things like data centers and population growth, or is it the fully renewable system? And, you know, if you look at the end state, then I don’t think that many studies or maybe any studies come to the conclusion that anything other than renewables is the, the cheaper, better system. But it’s just, it doesn’t mean that every step along the way is cheaper, and so you end up with this, yeah, like this hump in the middle that you’ve gotta, you’ve gotta get over if you wanna get from one to the other, and it’s, um, it’s complicated. Speaker 6: I just listened to a podcast about this half an hour ago, uh, and it [00:22:00] was very contentious. And I won’t get into the details of it, but it was just one or the other. We wanna have all petroleum-based, coal-based generation in the UK, or we want zero emissions. They never got into anywhere in the middle, which is where it’s going to have to be. So why don’t we talk about that? I– It doesn’t… The political atmosphere of the UK is, is a little unstable, as we’ve all read in the newspapers and seen online. Uh, but it, but it’s just causing the both sides to go to extremes. And on the renewable side, some of the arguments that are being made were so outlandish that I could hardly continue to listen to it. Same thing on the gas and coal side. Like, what are we gonna do? The UK is really in a pinch. They’re gonna have to do something, and it all– as Rosemary’s pointed out, doing nothing is real ex- it’s gonna be tremendously expensive too. So there’s, there’s gonna have to be a, a reckoning somehow, but it, it’s all tied to the [00:23:00] economy at the moment. Like most things that happen in a country, decisions are made about what’s happening right now, not what’s gonna happen five years from now.  Yolanda Padron: Right. And to your point, like countries need to protect themselves, right? Like what are you gonna do, bank on world peace?  Speaker 6: That’s a bad bet historically.  Matthew Stead: But, um, how many, how many of those charts have you seen in the last one to years where you’ve got the, the fossil fuel, say the coal generation versus renewable generation? How many of those, um, charts have crossed over in the last few years where, you know, renewables generation is, is higher than coal generation? It’s just, it’s happening all over the world. It’s just happening, and you look at the graphs, it’s just happening.  Speaker 6: It’s less expensive, so that’s why they’re doing it. The decision’s made with the dollar. You know, the financing and the bankers and insurance are all gonna drive that, and it’s not gonna be the decision you, the homeowner, are gonna have a lot of influence on. It’s all gonna be done at a higher level, and it’s gonna be whatever’s cheaper and whatever’s available. Back to Rosemary’s point, [00:24:00] solar is cheap and available, people are gonna do it. Wind is cheap and available, they’re gonna choose it no matter who’s in office, right? I… Yeah, that’s the engineer talking, not the politician.  Matthew Stead: Battery, wind, and solar is only gonna get cheaper. Is, um, is, uh, gas turbines and coal gonna get cheaper? Speaker 6: They can’t. In order to get the efficiency up where they need to, it’s gonna be super expensive, which is what we’re at today. That’s why gas turbines are s- you can’t mass produce them, and that’s why they cost so much money. It’s a great business if you sell a couple a year. You can’t sell thousands of them. There’s just not a way to do that. As wind energy professionals, staying informed is crucial, and let’s face it, difficult. That’s why the Uptime podcast recommends PES Wind magazine.

Over in Sweden, they built all the wind farms, and here at Weather Guard we’ve talked to a number of operators over in Sweden, so has EOLOGIX-PING, uh, and the– So but the wind farms and the customers haven’t really showed up, and researchers in Sweden have analyzed two hundred and forty-four Swedish wind power producers owning more than about thirty-seven hundred turbines covering eighty-five percent of the country’s total wind generation. So it’s a pretty large study. They found that eighty percent were effectively operating at a loss in twenty twenty-four. The total sector losses reached six point three billion Swedish kronor, uh, about six hundred and twenty million euros. The sector’s profit margins fell to a negative fifty-one percent. That’s right, negative fifty-one percent. Uh, and here’s the real paradox. Although wind production actually [00:26:00] rose from thirty-four point two to forty point six terawatt-hours, revenues fell for the first time in at least six years. Uh, the more they produced, the less they earned. And the real culprit is overcapacity. So they have so many turbines up in northern Sweden, uh, that it’s driving the energy prices down, much like Australia. Uh, and the missing link is obviously transmission because it is big demand to the south. It’s just getting the power there. Vattenfall alone lost eight hundred and seventy million euros in its wind business in twenty twenty-four, and one of its subsidiaries curtailed seventeen percent of the potential production because of, uh, shutting the turbines down was less expensive than selling into negative prices, which would make sense. So the price has gotten so low in Sweden that it’s better just to turn the turbine off and, and eat the loss than to generate power at a, at a negative price. This is a common theme [00:27:00] as wind has grown, and solar for the same matter, is that when you have so much of it, the price of electricity will drop. And until you can get that power out to other areas that has high demand It becomes a losing proposition. How does this play out? Will the– Now will countries finally take transmission seriously and start to even out the grid? Is that where we’re going?  Yolanda Padron: I mean, I hope so. The idea of curtailing potential energy isn’t something new, right? It happens here in Texas all the time. It happens in a lot of places all the time, um, just to, to not overflow the grid. And it makes sense, but it doesn’t make sense too much, at least to me, that in the same country you have parts of it where you have an electricity surplus and negative pricing, and other parts of it where you just, you don’t have enough energy for the whole, uh, region, right? So, uh, I really hope they take it a bit more seriously than they, than they currently are.  Matthew Stead: Uh, I think the interesting thing about Sweden is [00:28:00]that they’ve got a lot of hydro as well, and so those two things tie together. Um, you know, much like Australia, we’re building the, like the largest in the Southern Hemisphere, um, hydro scheme, and, um, maybe that’s part of the missing puzzle is the actual, the storage element. So if they had more pumped hydro, you know, they could, um, perhaps store that excess energy and then, then reuse it. But, you know, unless there’s no pipes from the north to the south, you know, that’s not gonna help anyone.  Speaker 6: Hydro is expensive. The more recent news articles I’ve seen about pumped hydro is it’s way less expensive to put in wind or put in solar or put in some batteries than to do pumped hydro projects. It’s complicated. It’s a lot of construction, obviously, and, uh, the pumps and the equipment are not cheap. So, uh, yeah, so although if you do have hydro and it’s currently running, you would leave that alone, but I think some of the newer pumped hydro projects probably won’t happen. Even if they’re on the– have [00:29:00] been planned and, and even started, I think they’re really reevaluating that it’s probably cheaper to do batteries. Matthew Stead: In Australia, in Snowy 2.0, I think the original budget was, was it 3 billion? And now it’s up to 12 to 15 billion.  Rosemary Barnes: Anybody that was working on that would’ve known that the price was very likely to blow out because that particular project has a really long tunnel. The two reservoirs that, like the reservoirs were existing, so you think, okay, that’s good, you save money. But the expensive part of pumped hydro is the tunneling and then, and it’s a very long tunnel. Um, and it’s just so super predictable that when you have a super long tunnel, you one, increase the cost a lot, but two, increase the risk of a massive cost blowout. So I think it’s not a good predictor of, of projects as some other ones that are, that are happening. I think the biggest problem with hydro is that, um, the project lives are so long, like 100 years e- easily, [00:30:00] but that doesn’t mean anything in today’s dollars, y- you know? So it’s like no one can, no company is gonna assign any value to the electricity they’re gonna generate in 100 years time, you know? So it’s, um, it, it’s really hard for it to stack up to, as a project today unless it’s a government doing it. Matthew Stead: But I mean, once Snowy 2.0 is done, it will still be reasonably cost-effective as a long-term storage source.  Rosemary Barnes: Yeah. If it had been made on time, then I think it would’ve, it would’ve been a real enabler for the energy transition for getting heaps of wind and solar. But it wasn’t done on time, and we barely we- storage isn’t our problem right now. We have actually got lots of, of storage. That’s not what’s stopping people from building projects. So, um, I think it is a bit of a shame.  Speaker 6: Back to your point, Rosemary, how old hydro is in terms of electricity generation. I, I went to go look up when Niagara River, Niagara Falls in, in the States first [00:31:00] started producing power, 1895. That’s how long we’ve been using water power in the States to create electricity. Hoover Dam, which also does something very similar, is in the 1930s, 1935, ’36, around that timeframe. So it’s almost been 100 years there too, 90 years. Yeah. It’s, it’s amazing. So you don’t plan for those, those pieces of, uh, infrastructure to run that long, but they do.

www.patreon.com/theconspiracypodcastThe FULL Pyramids Compilation (5 EPs in one)The show's 100th episode. What started as a milestone special turned into five full episodes, hours of debate, and one of the most spirited arguments in podcast history. Now it's all in one place.Eric, Sean, and Jorge dive headfirst into the greatest mystery in human history: Who built the Great Pyramids of Giza — and how the hell did they do it?Part 1 — The History: Before the conspiracies, lay the foundation. The Nile River, the Old Kingdom, the pharaohs, and a timeline that puts the Great Pyramid in perspective. It was built before coins, before paper, before the domestication of horses in Africa — and Cleopatra was closer in time to us than to the pyramids.Parts 2 & 3 — Sean's Episodes: Sean comes in swinging with 20 pages of things that don't add up. The Great Pyramid's near-perfect alignment with True North (off by 0.05 degrees — more precise than the Washington Monument). Pi and the Golden Ratio embedded in its dimensions. The Earth's own proportions mirrored in its geometry. Impossible 80-ton granite slabs. Sealed doors discovered by robots. Salt deposits in the Queen's Chamber. And the burning question: if it was just a tomb, where's the body?Part 4 — Eric's Episode: Eric fights back. He makes the case that mankind — skilled, organized, and wildly underestimated — built the pyramids with no alien assistance. He brings evidence: the workers' village, Machu Picchu, the Great Wall of China, the Hoover Dam. His thesis? Human ingenuity has always defied what seems impossible.The Update: Two weeks after Episode 100 aired, news broke of a massive underground complex discovered beneath Giza using satellite radar — interconnected chambers, spiraling shafts, and cylindrical voids stretching nearly two kilometers underground. We had to come back. Everything's on the table again.History, mystery, bad diagrams, and a few things we still can't explain.

Recently, federal water regulators took an emergency step that would divert huge amounts of water to Lake Powell. The move will preserve the reservoir's ability to generate power and avoid nearing deadpool – at the cost of dramatically cutting water to Lake Mead, likely sending the lake to its lowest level ever and cutting power output from Hoover Dam later this year. But if the water picture is so dire, why can't Western states agree on mutual cuts?

He was a renowned martial artist, actor, and author, famous for his roles in action films and the television series "Walker, Texas Ranger," and he also founded his own martial arts system called Chun Kuk Do.  Oklahoma Historical Society Wikipedia Early Life Carlos Ray "Chuck" Norris was born on March 10, 1940, in Ryan, Oklahoma. He was the eldest of three brothers. His father, Ray Norris, served in World War II and later worked various jobs, while his mother, Wilma, had Irish ancestry. At age 12, Norris moved to Torrance, California, where he later joined the United States Air Force in 1958.   Martial Arts Career Norris began training in martial arts while stationed in South Korea, where he learned Tang Soo Do. He became a successful martial artist, winning numerous championships, including the World Professional Middleweight Karate title for seven consecutive years. In 1990, he made history as the first American to achieve the rank of 8th Degree Black Belt Grand Master in Taekwondo.   Acting Career Norris made his film debut in "The Wrecking Crew" (1968) and gained fame through action films like "Way of the Dragon" (1972) alongside Bruce Lee, and the "Missing in Action" series starting in 1984. He starred in the popular television series "Walker, Texas Ranger" from 1993 to 2001.   Personal Life and Legacy Norris has been married twice and has five children. He is a devout Christian and has written several books on martial arts, philosophy, and self-help. He became a cultural icon with the "Chuck Norris facts" internet meme, which humorously exaggerated his toughness. Norris passed away on March 19, 2026, at the age of 86, leaving behind a legacy as a martial artist, actor, and author.   Show Sponsor: Patriot Patch   How you can help out the show: Patches and Stickers Using the following links help support our show.

The robbery victims were also armed, however, and one or both of them responded by shooting at the alleged assailants. One of the robbery suspects died and the other was critically wounded. Police detained all involved but said the incident appeared to be self-defense. (fox13news.com, Tampa Bay, Fla., 1/24/26)   From the Armed Citizen® Archives – January 1989 An 89-year-old Ft. Wayne, Ind. woman was talking on the phone when the line went dead. Later, she heard noises and thought someone was trying to break in. So she headed out the door to a neighbor's house to call the police. But, as she opened the door, a man wearing a black hood pushed her back into the house. Her 91-year-old husband heard the commotion and grabbed a shotgun. The hooded man told the husband to get back, but when the resident continued to advance, the hooded man fled. “The gun saved us,” the woman said. “Boy, did he run.” (The News Sentinel, Fort Wayne, Ind.)     Wrap Up: -Send feedback to GodandGunsTV@gmail.com -Please tell your friends about us,

Abysmii, Allen and David drag out the Dregs and assess the condition of the Mojave Wasteland and New Vegas around 15 years after the Second Battle of Hoover Dam, weighing the TV show's depiction of the world versus expectation for the future of Fallout and where it will go from here.

Andrew Roberts is joined by Dan Wang, Hoover research fellow and the author of Breakneck to explore the shifting balance of global power between China, the United States, and Europe. Wang argues that China's massive manufacturing capacity, rapid electrification, and relentless infrastructure building are giving it a growing edge—even as Western democracies struggle with regulation, litigation, and political gridlock. The conversation ranges from tariffs, engineering education, and the “vetocracy” holding back Western construction to the geopolitics of EVs, AI regulation, and China's demographic future. They also discuss the possibility of rising populism in Europe, and whether the West can rediscover the ambitious engineering spirit that once built Hoover Dam and the Apollo program.

This episode was recorded live at the America Outdoors annual conference and is a conversation with three members from the Returning Rapids Project in Utah.  The Returning Rapids Project is documenting the changes and restoration happening to the reservoir-affected areas of the Colorado River and the San Juan River as Lake Powell continues to recede out of the river canyons it inundated with reservoir waters for the past several decades.  The deeper focus of this episode beyond this research project is the powerful observational ability of river guides who work on rivers day after day, year after year, and how they can notice the most minute changes.  In the case of the Colorado River and the Returning Rapids Project, it was this guide observation that witnessed a subtle shift to the river.  This observation has developed into a powerful project that is learning how rivers recover from life under a reservoir.  THUMBNAIL PIC  Stephen Martin@finding.stephen@explorewithmedia GUESTSThe Returning Rapids Project Isabel Adler Davide Ipolito Mike DeHoffMedia about Returning RapidsA Ledge in the River: New feature documented by the Returning Rapids Project Mike Fiebig, American Rivers CONFERENCE HOST America Outdoors2027 Conference Watch this episode on the America Outdoors Youtube Channel SPONSORS Giveaway: "Raft the Last Wild River Sweepstakes" live March 9, 2026   OARS@oars_raftingStillwater & Cataract Canyon HikerCataract Canyon Whitewater Rafting AMERICAN RIVERS@americanrivers   THE RIVER RADIUSWebsiteRunoff signup (episode newsletter)InstagramFacebookApple PodcastSpotifyLink Tree

For over a thousand years, humans have been harnessing wind energy. It may have begun with small, grain‑grinding windmills in ancient Persia, but today you might spot Hoover‑Dam‑sized offshore turbines as you drive along the east coast. How did we get here? In this episode of Tiny Matters, we explore the first electric wind turbines built in the late 1800s, how government policies in the 1970s and '80s shaped the modern wind industry, and why giant offshore wind farms are suddenly in the news. We also clear up misinformation stemming from a Hollywood blockbuster as well as what we know about the impact of wind farms on whales, birds and bats.In this episode, we explore the surprising origins and evolution of one of modern medicine's most important tools: the clinical trial. We follow the development of experimental design across centuries to modern day randomized controlled trials and the debates about their limitations, trying to answer the question, “How do we know whether a treatment truly works?”Send us your science facts, news, or other stories for a chance to be featured on an upcoming Tiny Show and Tell Us bonus episode.

Boulder library, the city that built Hoover Dam -tourist Nevada

You know what you want. You're clear on that now. But you just don't know how to get there. You need the map, right? Most people want me to tell them exactly how to get from here to there. And honestly? You need a bridge. Not a vision board. Not a prayer. A real foundation on both sides with a solid plan connecting them. I share the Hoover Dam story that changed how I think about building anything in life — whether it's a new business, a relationship, or chasing a passion you can't shake. The secret isn't knowing exactly where you're going. It's building a peaceful base where you are right now, drafting where you want to go, and constructing the roadmap to get there. If you've been freaking out because life is messy or you spent your last credit card dollar on a course promising billions in 30 days, this episode brings you back to earth. Featured Story Years ago I was standing on top of the Hoover Dam. Pretty awe-inspiring. One of the biggest engineering marvels in history. But something else caught my attention. The new bridge going up high above the canyon. They were building a bypass, which made total sense to me. Why drive cars and semi-trucks over a dam holding billions of gallons of water? But I grew up in the seventies. Most of what we did then made no sense. As I watched that bridge construction, I realized something. The process was identical to getting what I wanted in life. Foundation on one side. Foundation on the other side. Build the span between them. That's how you cross any canyon. Important Points Most people know what they want after gaining clarity, but they just don't know how to get there — you need a bridge with foundations on both sides. Build a peaceful present base first before chasing the future, which means getting bills paid, relationships solid, and feeling strong where you are today. You can't know exactly where you're going until you start because you've never been there before — anyone who claims otherwise is lying to you. Memorable Quotes "God's got a plan for you, but he gave you free will. He's like, okay, here's the big plan. Here's the secret. I'm not going to tell you what it is or when it's going to happen." "I am not arrogant enough to think that I can head off in a direction of doing something I've never done before and know exactly how I'm going to get there." "How many times have you spent your last money on a credit card and you got to make a billion dollars in 30 days or it's not going to work for you? It doesn't work." Scott's Three-Step Approach Build your peaceful present base. Get bills paid, relationships solid, and everything settled where you are right now before charging into the future. Draft your peaceful future base. Take classes, get certifications, expand your network — start building the other side even though it's just a draft. Construct the bridge between them. Create your roadmap, your steps, your framework that gets you from here to there without falling into the river.

Bridge Method: Build Your Dream Life Without Burning Everything Down October 31, 2025 | Episode 5215 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description Ever feel stuck where you are but terrified to make a move because you might lose everything? You're not alone. Scott's seen it happen too many times. People so desperate to build their dream life that they torch their current one. Credit cards maxed out. Relationships destroyed. All because they didn't have a plan. The Bridge Method changes that. It's about getting from here to there without burning down your house in the process. Scott breaks down the three foundations you need before you make any big move. And yeah, the first one isn't sexy at all. But it's the only way this works. What happened when he stood at the Hoover Dam in 2008 changed how he coaches forever. Featured Story You ever been so ready to change something that you'd do anything to make it happen? Scott's had clients lie straight to his face about it. They want the coaching. They want the change. So they say everything's fine financially. Then six months later? Thirty grand in credit card debt. All to pay for something that was supposed to make their life better. That's when it hit him. Standing at the Hoover Dam years ago, watching them build a bridge across that massive gap. Two solid foundations on either side. And a carefully constructed span connecting them. Your life works the same way. You can't just leap across the canyon and hope you make it. You need foundations. You need a plan. You need to build the bridge first. Important Points Why building a "peaceful base" where you are right now is the unsexy first step that prevents you from crashing everything later. The nursing career story that shows how to map your future foundation before you quit your current job or go into debt for change. Why most people spend all their time dreaming about the future or stressing about today but never build the actual bridge between them. Memorable Quotes "I have seen a lot of folks so anxious to go someplace else and do something else that they crash everything today to get there." "We need to build a foundation for where you are today. Your foundation is a peaceful base." "You're going to do this anyway. You're from here and you're going to go there. In between, you got to figure out how to get there. Scott's Three-Step Approach 1. Fortify your current foundation first—take away the stress, make sure you can pay your bills, get your goals aligned, and create a peaceful base before you try to go anywhere. 2. Define your future foundation clearly—know exactly what it's going to take to get there (certifications, training, costs, timeline) so you're building toward something specific. 3. Build the bridge span with a realistic plan—map out how you'll pay for it, how long it will take, and the hundred little things you need to figure out without messing up your peaceful base.
