The BackSeat Saints open the night with Homecoming, and from there, the lights dim, the coffee kicks in, and the madness begins — welcome to Powers Point After Dark. Scotts in the captain's chair guiding the chaos, and tonight he's joined by a guest — Jim Banks, crossing over from the Powers Point Podcast to experience the late-night groove for himself. He's sacrificing a few hours of precious sleep just to find out what really goes down After Dark. Keith opens with Blunt Talk, diving headfirst into the latest UFC happenings, his fight picks that “can't miss” (unless they do), and a few nuggets of real-life wisdom along the way. And don't forget — according to Scott — Keith's After Dark contract guarantees him 10% of everyone's earnings. Nobody's seen the fine print, but hey, the man's committed. Next up, Beyond the A-Side — Keith's deep cut corner, where the stories behind the music get a spotlight. Expect nostalgia, surprises, and a few detours into life, laughter, and late-night honesty. And then it's time for the main event — The Great True or False Throwdown! This isn't your grandma's trivia game. It's Daytime vs. Nighttime. Hobart vs. Toledo. Podcast vs. Radio. Jim vs. Keith. When the questions fly, each contender has one minute to lock in their answer — with help from you, the listeners. Text or call in with your lifeline answer, and watch the chaos unfold as Jim and Keith fight to separate the truth from the lies (and occasionally just make up new ones). It's competitive. It's chaotic. It's classic After Dark. So, grab your drink, turn down the lights, and settle in — This is Powers Point After Dark.

Off the coast of Java, Indonesia, lies G-Land, one of the world's most legendary surf breaks, framed by a dense forest that was once home to the now-extinct Javan tiger. Alas Purwo (which literally means “Ancient Forest” or “First Forest” in Javanese) is considered one of the most mystical places in Java, with deep ties to Javanese spirituality and legend. Despite Java being one of the most crowded islands on Earth, this sacred jungle has remained largely untouched. In the 1970s, surfer Bobby Radiasa arrived from neighbouring Bali to visit American surfers who had set up a remote base there, hammocks and tree houses, what some say is the world's first surf camp. He discovered both myth and magic in its waves. Also features an interview with Jim Banks, an Australian surfing legend known as a pioneer of big wave surfing and among the first group of surfers that arrived in Bali and later to G-land.

This episode exposes two strategies aimed at influencing the upcoming midterm elections: labeling protesters and left-leaning opponents as "Antifa" to justify crackdowns under the Insurrection Act, and using claims about the 2020 census to push redistricting that benefits Republicans.

It's an EmMajority Report Thursday! The guests will be political analyst Omar Baddar on Israel's renewed attacks in Gaza, and Paris Marx, host of the podcast "Tech Won't Save Us," about how Elon Musk is running Tesla into the ground. First, Emma runs through updates on Trump's tariff turmoil and responses in both the Senate and House, Mike Waltz's security issues, Laura Loomer's return to the White House, Israel's seizure of land in Gaza, a joint US-Israel attack on Syria, Netanyahu's visit to Hungary, and Eric Adams' announcement that he's running as an independent, before diving deeper into Trump's tariff announcement, including the bunk equation they used to calculate this policy, and the obvious, extensive impact it will have on everyday Americans. Omar Baddar then joins, jumping right into Israel's major escalations to their ongoing ethnic cleansing of Gaza, with Netanyahu's recent announcement that Israel would be going ahead with a full-scale land seizure in North Gaza, adding a “second Philadelphi Corridor” south of Gaza City amid their revamped military barrage, all under the dishonest pretense of saving the hostages. Baddar and Emma then look to Israel's expansion of hostilities even outside of the genocide of Palestinians, with repeated bombardments against Lebanon – including occasional strikes on Beirut – ongoing despite an alleged ceasefire, unpacking the country's (and Netanyahu's) extensive history of pushing an agenda of regional chaos to bolster their position as Middle East watchdogs for the West, with Israel serving major roles in spurring the US invasion of Iraq in 2003 and in gutting the Iran Nuclear deal under Trump 1.0. Omar wraps up by touching on the growing backlash to Israel's belligerency on the international stage, and whether there is hope to be found in both regional and global actors turning away from the US-Israel imperial coalition. Paris Marx then gets right into the wonderful revelations in Tesla's quarterly earnings report, walking through the devastating drop in sales amid mass recalls, a diversifying EV market, and overwhelming global backlash to the fascist politics of Elon Musk. Marx then tackles the particular failures of Tesla's *ONLY* new major model release in recent years with the Cybertruck, and how it represents the greater issue of allowing a deranged billionaire to make outrageous promises completely detached from the material reality of both his company and modern technology, before shifting to the explosive impact Chinese products are currently having on the EV market, with BYD proving clear affordability and profitability even in European markets, developments that are all in line with America's dwindling role as a global economic leader. Paris and Emma wrap up by examining the growing existential threat facing Elon Musk and his companies as backlash to his corrupt business practices and corrupt politics hits back at Tesla and Starlink profits in Europe and Canada, all while he continues to tie his billionaire lifestyle to the worth of those stocks. And in the Fun Half: Emma is joined by Matt Binder and Brandon Sutton as they watch Trump Cabinet members come out of the woodwork to plead with the public not to panic or get upset over their complete decimation of the global economy and mass inflation it will cause. They also talk with Cassie from Indiana about state-based pushback to the Trump Administration, and listen to Senator Jim Banks' wild victim blaming as our public health apparatus faces massive job cuts, plus, your calls and IMs!
