There is concern that political leaders are pushing to reshape these communities by moving in tall, low-cost housing. 915-930 Economic Slowdown Evident in Local Consumer Spending and Housing Guest Name: Jim McTague Summary:Despite lower gas prices in Lancaster County, a ripple effect from declining Asian imports is expected. Consumer caution remains high, with "English" shoppers buying essentials and avoiding expensive electronics. Local diners show less vibrancy, suggesting the economy has lost "some spring in its step." High-end real estate sales have also notably "dried up." 930-945 HEADLINE: Trump's War on Cartels and Venezuela Intervention; Supreme Court Takes Up Federal Reserve Governor Firing Case GUEST NAME: Richard Epstein SUMMARY: John Batchelor speaks with Richard Epstein about President Trump's "war" against drug cartels and potential Venezuela intervention, which Epstein deems unlawful executive overreach due to congressional inertia.

Its path brings it within about 20 million miles of Mars, but it is currently blocked by the sun. NASA and European teams are attempting to get data using Mars orbiters and rovers, though the resolution may not match Webb's spectroscopy. Europe is also considering re-aiming the Juice mission. 1045-1100 Webb Telescope Challenges Cosmology Theories with 'Little Red Dots' Guest Name: Bob Zimmerman Summary:The Webb Space Telescope is finding mysterious "little red dots" in the very early universe, observed via infrared due to redshift. Astronomers speculate these might be supermassive black holes, which shouldn't exist so early, challenging the Big Bang theory itself. About 30% of these dots do not appear compact when viewed in ultraviolet light, resembling galaxies instead. THIRD HOUR 1100-1115 HEADLINE: Princess Ennigaldi-Nanna's Chamber: An Early Mesopotamian Museum GUEST NAME: Moudhy Al-Rashid SUMMARY: John Batchelor speaks with Moudhy Al-Rashid about Princess Ennigaldi-Nanna, high priestess to moon god Sin in Ur, who maintained ancient artifact collections in her palace.

Italian Political Scandals and the Reinstatement of St. Francis Holiday Guest Name: Lorenzo Fiori Summary:Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni and two ministers face ICC investigation for failing to detain a Libyan warlord, citing risks to Italian workers in Libya. Separately, Italy's Senate unanimously approved reinstating a national holiday honoring St. Francis of Assisi, Italy's patron saint, 800 years after his passing. 1230-1245 Distinguishing Humane Nationalism from Pathological Ideologies Guest Name: Daniel Mahoney Summary:Nationalism must be distinguished from pathological forms like "blood and soil" ideology, which champions ethnic rooting and the subordination of others. Moderate, humane national loyalty is tied to self-government and common humanity, rejecting the path that leads to "zoological wars." Critics often unfairly conflate nationalism with isolationism or imperialism. 1245-100 AM Distinguishing Humane Nationalism from Pathological Ideologies Guest Name: Daniel Mahoney Summary:Nationalism must be distinguished from pathological forms like "blood and soil" ideology, which champions ethnic rooting and the subordination of others.

The Left and the Right Deserve Each Other https://www.odwyerpr.com/story/public/23694/2025-10-03/left-right-deserve-each-other.html Bill Burr Destroys His Reputation https://youtu.be/PECQihXJb_g?si=kFBcglMmm1tWs4c8 00:00:00 – Cold Open, CB Radio Day & Show Plans Kicks off with loose banter about “National CB Day” vs. truckers, old-school CB culture, travel plans, and lining up guest co-hosts; sets a playful tone before hinting at heavier news. 00:10:00 – “Escaping the Simulation” Article They dissect a Popular Mechanics piece (and Roman Yampolskiy's ideas) on whether we can exit a simulated reality, poke holes in the write-up, and riff on paradoxes, mass meditation, and overloading “the system” with AI fluff. 00:20:00 – Books & Models of Reality Bringing in My Big TOE (Tom Campbell), The Holographic Universe (Talbot), and The Simulation Hypothesis (Virk), Mike contrasts “level 2” takes with richer frameworks—e.g., distributed-mind generation of reality vs. a Linux-in-the-sky overseer. 00:30:00 – Can You Really Get Out? They argue escape likely requires death or radical detachment (no attachments, near-Zen), invoke “life review,” karma/progression RPG mechanics, and conclude there's no cheap hack—only becoming a better human. 00:40:00 – Mind Power, NPCs & Inner Monologue Into consciousness: people without inner monologues/mental imagery, social-cue humor, and how thought quality affects health and “the sim.” They chew on whether offloading thinking to AI weakens individual processing and spawns weirder glitches. 00:50:00 – Headlines: Drones, War Talk & Odd Death Quick hits: NATO-airspace drone incursions; skepticism about Venezuela “seize the airfields” stories; and a troubling Texas case (GOP staffer death by self-immolation) with sealed records that fuels speculation. 01:00:00 – Transparency & Global Gen-Z Protests On sealed files, political ties, and why Gen-Z is protesting globally—social-media chain reactions from Madagascar to Nepal; digital natives demanding change in the streets. 01:10:00 – Libya, UK Digital IDs & BoBo Craze Libya headlines resurface; talk turns to rumored UK digital ID rollouts (timing, pushback), then a detour into BoBo collectible toys, pop-culture virality, and retail charts going bonkers. 01:20:00 – Saudi Soft Power: EA & Entertainment Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund keeps buying influence—EA deal talk, AI plays, and mega-city “The Line”; frames the Riyadh comedy festival as part of a broader rebrand. 01:30:00 – Riyadh Comedy Festival: Burr & Chappelle Bill Burr gets roasted for cashing a $1.5M+ gig and praising KSA after slamming billionaires; Chappelle says it's “easier to talk here than in America.” They wonder who was invited, who wasn't, and whether any set will be released. 01:40:00 – Pitmaster… Deodorant?! Cratchet corner: Progresso launches BBQ-smoke “Pitmaster” deodorant to pair with its soup line; sold-out “Pit Kits” spur jokes about meme products and manufactured scarcity. 01:50:00 – “Jetpack Man” over LAX: Files Drop FOIA'd FBI docs muddy the mystery: pilots describe a humanoid-looking object with no visible propulsion; not a balloon, maybe not a person—just more questions and withheld pages. Cue wild “monkey suit goblin” punchlines. 02:00:00 – AI Music & Wrap They debut/talk AI-assisted songs (“Peg Your Jeans…”, “Chubby Puppy”), muse on 90s-grunge vibes, and plug Patreon/next shows. Nostalgic music talk closes the loop.

Jorge Linares, conocido como El Niño de Oro y considerado uno de los mejores boxeadores de Venezuela, abre su historia como nunca antes. Desde sus orígenes en Barinitas hasta conquistar Japón y codearse con leyendas como Óscar de la Hoya y Floyd Mayweather, Linares revela la disciplina, los sacrificios y las sombras detrás del boxeo profesional. Entre peleas arregladas, política en el deporte, tatuajes que cierran puertas y la pérdida de la pasión, surge la gran pregunta: ¿estamos frente a su retiro definitivo… o ante el regreso más esperado del boxeo?

CannCon and Ashe in America tackle a packed night of testimony and hearings, starting with a Venezuelan whistleblower's deposition in Tina Peters' habeas case. The witness details how Smartmatic systems were manipulated in Venezuela, exposing vulnerabilities and foreign influence that echo into U.S. elections. The hosts connect this testimony to Garland Favorito's explosive appearance before Georgia legislators, where he outlined systemic flaws in Dominion's Democracy Suite, internet connectivity, and even proof of hacked county servers. Ashe and CannCon react in real time to the evidence, the gaslighting pushback from officials, and the broader implications for election security. From court cases and subpoenas to grassroots activism and polls that miss the real story, this episode puts the spotlight on truth, transparency, and the ongoing fight for election integrity.

* Hamas nods to Trump's Gaza plan, agreeing to free captives * International reactions pour in after Hamas supports Trump's plan * Israel strikes Gaza despite Trump's halt orders * US targets suspected drug traffickers in tense Venezuela waters * India will host Taliban minister in first high-level visit

President Trump's loyalty purges continue. Prosecutors are fired from the U.S. attorney's office in Eastern Virginia, including people who had nothing to do with the Comey case. And Kash Patel pushes out an FBI agent in training for displaying a rainbow flag in his workspace.

Candace Owens has accused Turning Point USA leadership of covering up the truth about Charlie Kirk's assassination, alleging obscuring the fact that Kirk had explicitly rejected pro-Israel donor pressure just 48 hours before his death. She claims he told TPUSA executives, Jewish donors, and a rabbi that he was abandoning the Israel project and planned to bring her back on stage with him.  Owens challenged TPUSA to publicly deny her statements, suggesting their silence proves they are protecting financial interests tied to pro-Israel donors. Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger emphasize that TPUSA's refusal to address these allegations directly points to a deeper corruption and donor-driven influence within the organization. Plus segments on the letter Charlie Kirk wrote just before his death to Netanyahu demanding Israel do its own propaganda, why Israeli control over TikTok is worse than China's and the plans underway for an attack on Venezuela.

OA1195 - How much of the federal government has actually shut down, and why? We explore the truth behind the spin, and Matt breaks the exclusive story of how at least one part of the executive branch appears to be illegally operating at full capacity. We then then connect some of the most fast-moving stories of the past few weeks to bring out the terrifying relationship between the obvious legal issues around the Trump administration's threats to invade Venezuela, underreported executive actions on “Antifa” and “domestic terrorism” and their broad potential consequences, and the Trump's recent threat to use US cities as “training grounds” for US troops. Then: good news! Jenessa shares a win on voting rights out of Pennsylvania, and Matt celebrates a resounding victory for the free speech rights of non-citizen students like Rumeysa Ozturk and Mahmoud Khalil from a Reagan-appointed federal judge. Finally, today's footnote confirms that the Wu Tang Clan is as a matter of law indeed nothing to fuck with. “Stephen Miller takes leading role in strikes on alleged Venezuelan drug boats,” The Guardian (9/29/2025) “Designating Cartels And Other Organizations As Foreign Terrorist Organizations And Specially Designated Global Terrorists” – The White House  (1/20/2025) “Invocation of the Alien Enemies Act Regarding the Invasion of The United States by Tren De Aragua” – The White House (3/15/2025) “Designating Antifa as a Domestic Terrorist Organization” – The White House (9/22/2025) “Countering Domestic Terrorism and Organized Political Violence,” The White House (9/25/2025) Boston senior federal judge William Young's order in AAUP v.

HEADLINE: Latin American Political Volatility and US Engagement GUEST NAME: Evan Ellis SUMMARY: John Batchelor speaks with Evan Ellis about political instability across Latin America. In Argentina, peso volatility reflects investor doubts about President Milei's survival following election losses and corruption scandals. Despite strong economic fundamentals (poverty reduced to 32%, 3% growth), the US Treasury provided unprecedented support with a $20 billion swap agreement. In Venezuela, Maduro's illegitimate regime lost overwhelmingly to Edmundo Gonzalez in July 2024. The US deployed eight ships and considers limited strikes against the "Cartel de los Soles" leadership. Brazil's Lula might offer Maduro asylum to resolve the crisis while opposing US pressure. Colombia faces chaos under President Petro, whose failed "total peace" policies increased violence. After Petro urged US soldiers to disobey orders, America pulled his diplomatic visa, damaging security cooperation. Mexico's President Sheinbaum enjoys 78% popularity and achieved a 20% homicide reduction. The critical priority remains USMCA renegotiation, preventing Chinese companies from using Mexico as a US market pass-through. 1913 MEXICO CITY

One great power (China) has a relentless thirst to build that comes with a terrible human cost, while its main rival (America) is a more lawyerly and free society that's prone to stifling ideas both good and bad. On the 76th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, Dan Wang, a Hoover Institution research fellow and author of the bestseller Breakneck: China's Quest to Engineer the Future, joins GoodFellows regulars Niall Ferguson and H.R. McMaster to discuss what the future holds for the two Cold War 2 rivals, plus Wang's firsthand experiences witnessing China's engineering boom and enduring its draconian pandemic policies. After that, the fellows weigh in on President Trump's recent United Nations address and the state of that institution, the likelihood of Trump's Gaza peace plan coming to fruition, the provision of long-range Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine, plus the merits of a US military strike inside Venezuela to counter narco-terrorism. In the lightning round: why America's military brass gathered at Quantico; National Guard troops head to Portland, Oregon; Scotland's frustration with illegal immigration; and the feasibility of the US regaining Afghanistan's Bagram Air Base.  Subscribe to GoodFellows for clarity on today's biggest social, economic, and geostrategic shifts — only on GoodFellows.

The Trump administration is seeking regime change in Venezuela as top officials accuse that country's president, Nicolás Maduro, of helming an international drug cartel. President Trump boasts about blowing up the boats of alleged Venezuelan drug runners in the Caribbean, and Secretary of State Marco Rubio is reportedly shaping an aggressive strategy to oust Maduro. This does not square with the administration's supposed isolationism, but the U.S. has never been isolationist when it comes to the Western Hemisphere. In this episode, historian Alexander Aviña traces the long, violent pattern of American interventionism in Latin America. Coincidentally, Theodore Roosevelt announced his corollary to the Monroe Doctrine after an international incident involving Venezuela in 1902.

The British Prime Minister Keir Starmer says Britain must defeat what he called the "rising hatred of Jewish people", after a deadly attack at a synagogue. Two Jewish people were killed and four others injured after a car was driven towards worshippers at the site in Manchester. Police declared it a terrorist incident. They shot the suspect dead. Also in the programme: Venezuela's opposition leader tells us she welcomes America's attacks on alleged drug smugglers, saying they'll force President out.

Economía y CCE inician consulta de cara a la revisión del TMECDetienen a Raúl Miguel “N” generador de violencia en la zona oriente Venezuela adelanta la Navidad 

Tommy & Ben react to Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth and Donald Trump's bizarre and alarming gathering of top military officials, including Trump's fascistic rhetoric about the "enemy within", wildly inappropriate partisan rants, and Hegseth's anti-DEI, pro-war-crimes lecture that could have been an email. They also talk about Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's announcement of a 20-point plan to end the war between Israel and Hamas, Netanyahu's apology to Qatar for striking Hamas leaders in Doha and why the hell Tony Blair is involved. Also discussed: Marco Rubio's secret plan for regime change in Venezuela, the revocation of the Colombian president's visa by the U.S., how Trump's trade war with China could sell out Taiwan and hurt American farmers, "Gen Z" protests in Madagascar, and former French president Nicolas Sarkozy's latest prison sentence. Finally, they explain why the comedy world is headed to Saudi Arabia and how Trump bonded with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan over rigged elections. Then, Ben speaks to foreign policy analyst, author, and journalist Rula Jebreal about the sidelining of Palestinians in Trump's peace plan, the threat of West Bank annexation, and what the international community can do for Palestine.

00:00:50 – Government Shutdown TheaterThe federal government officially shuts down, with Trump using the standoff as political theater. Debate focuses on “essential vs. non-essential” workers, furloughs, and how long the shutdown will last. 00:24:02 – TrumpRX & Pfizer DealTrump unveils a partnership with Pfizer branded “TrumpRX,” promising drug discounts. Critics call it blatant crony capitalism that rewards Big Pharma while MAGA supporters falsely hail it as a victory. 00:46:54 – QAnon Spin on TrumpRXQ influencers claim Trump's Pfizer deal is part of a secret White Hat operation against Satanists, reading hidden meanings into “17 billion.” Knight ridicules the delusion and highlights how the grift deceives Trump's base. 01:07:08 – Pharma Propaganda & Natural AlternativesDiscussion shifts to how Big Pharma captured public trust after COVID, erasing opioid scandals. Knight stresses natural remedies over corporate drugs, contrasting propaganda-driven medicine with genuine health. 01:19:00 – Trump's Military in CitiesTrump tells generals U.S. cities like Chicago should be used as training grounds for the military. Critics warn this is the path to a police state, the same drills conservatives opposed under Obama. 01:25:41 – Pentagon Revolt Against HegsethTrump's Pentagon chief Pete Hegseth clashes with military brass after pushing to rewrite defense strategy to focus on homeland threats, cut foreign deployments, and purge DEI. Generals push back, fearing instability. 01:35:14 – Trump's Narcissism on DisplayTrump rambles before military leaders about firemen and his Nobel Peace Prize ambitions, threatening to fire generals “on the spot” if disloyal. Critics call it dangerous narcissism and political theater. 01:41:07 – Media & Military Fitness MockeryThe View ridicules Hegseth's push for tougher fitness standards, while Knight argues a fit fighting force is essential. The contrast highlights cultural rot inside the military. 01:48:03 – Military for Israel, Not AmericaAudience comments stress the U.S. military serves Israel's interests, not America's defense, with speculation that Trump is preparing forces for Gaza or Iran. 01:51:52 – UK Legalizes Muslim ViolenceDiscussion of UK court rulings where criticizing Islam leads to arrests while Muslim attackers are released, effectively enacting blasphemy laws under Sharia influence. 02:35:00 – CIA Patterns in Venezuela & SyriaAnalysis of whether the “Tren de Aragua” gang is a CIA creation to justify regime change in Venezuela, compared to past U.S. operations arming jihadists in Syria. 02:52:00 – Speech Crimes in EuropeExamples of Europeans jailed for social media posts on immigration or gender, with courts criminalizing Christian or conservative dissent while protecting progressive ideology. 02:57:37 – Technocracy & Human CloningClosing segment warns of Brave New World science using skin cells for artificial embryos, framed as state-backed technocracy to replace families and push LGBT agendas.

Ben opens on faith, family and the state of men in American life, pushing back on Hillary Clinton's narrative and explaining why a renewed admiration for strong fatherhood is rising. He ties it to recent cultural flashpoints and the reaction to Charlie Kirk's death. Nancy Mace joins to break down the shutdown fight, why she calls it a left flank problem for Democrats, and how suburban women are moving on women's sports and Title IX. She also lays out her South Carolina agenda on taxes, immigration and law and order, and reflects on a broader faith revival she's seeing on the ground. Brian Kilmeade weighs in on the Quantico speech and a reset toward merit in the ranks, then dives into Venezuela, media spin and 2025 politics. Ben closes on the Rowling vs Emma Watson rift, arguing the tide has turned and Rowling had it right as the culture reassesses gender ideology.  Learn more about your ad choices.

María Gabriela de Faría (Superman, Animal Control) joins us this week for a powerful and open conversation about stepping into a life-changing role in Superman while learning to embrace her own vulnerability. María talks about leaving Venezuela for Hollywood, the culture shock she faced, and the identity struggles that came with it. She opens up about how therapy and self-discovery helped her navigate grief, fear, and self-doubt, and what it means to play a character who channels pain into power. We also dive into her journey with mental health, her passion for representation, and why she believes true strength comes from owning the parts of ourselves we're often told to hide.

On this episode of the MeidasTouch Podcast, Ben, Brett, and Jordy break down the escalating chaos of Trump's America—from his push for a government shutdown designed to hide economic data and block release of the Epstein files, to his absurd promotion of alien “MedBeds” as a health care plan. The brothers expose how Trump's lies are destroying farmers and health care, highlight new reporting that one of Trump's Venezuela bombing victims was actually a fisherman, and unpack Trump's dangerous deployment of troops in Portland and ICE crackdowns in Chicago. They also call out MAGA media's shameless cover-ups of recent mass shootings, all while Trump brags about his gold-plated White House and plots Netanyahu. It's a disturbing snapshot of corruption, cruelty, and disinformation, and Ben, Brett, and Jordy break it all down.
