In this episode the guys break down the six fastest ways to lose muscle and get flabby — too much cardio, low protein, poor sleep, nutrient deficiencies, ignoring gut health, and alcohol. Sal shares how fixing a parasite he didn't know he had led to gaining 12 pounds of muscle doing the same exact things. They also get into the power of music and why kids instinctively dance, Lone Star ticks and Lyme disease conspiracy theories, colonoscopy talk, the progression of Paul Saladino's diet, and Adam's son comparing his biceps in the sauna. Then they coach live callers submitted through mplivecaller.com. Alex from Mississippi on chronic fatigue and suspected nutrient deficiency, Dale from Connecticut on building muscle with a herniated disc and CrossFit burnout, Elizabeth from Wyoming on rest periods and winning a gym argument with her boss's husband, and Jenna from Wisconsin on a recurring hip flexor issue during heavy lifting.

For years, Americans have been told the rise of Alpha-Gal Syndrome is simply an unfortunate consequence of tick bites. But what if there are questions nobody wants answered? Today on Stinchfield, we investigate the mysterious explosion of a condition that can leave people allergic to red meat after a bite from the Lone Star tick. Hundreds of thousands of Americans may now suffer from Alpha-Gal Syndrome, yet many still know little about where it came from, why it is spreading, or what researchers knew about the phenomenon before the public ever heard of it. We'll examine the history of government tick research, Cold War biological warfare programs, and why Congress has repeatedly called for answers about whether ticks were ever studied as disease delivery systems. What remains classified? What remains hidden? And what exactly did scientists know about the ability of tick bites to alter the human immune system? Then there is the Bill Gates question. Gates has invested heavily in alternative proteins and has publicly advocated for reducing conventional beef consumption. Gates-backed initiatives have also funded tick research. At the same time, a growing number of Americans are finding themselves physically unable to eat red meat because of Alpha-Gal Syndrome. Is it merely a bizarre coincidence, or does the public deserve a closer look at potential conflicts of interest and the powerful forces seeking to reshape the American food supply? To be clear, there is no public evidence linking Gates to the creation or release of Alpha-Gal Syndrome. But when billionaires, government agencies, and public health institutions all intersect around an issue that affects what Americans can eat, asking questions isn't conspiracy. It's journalism. We're separating fact from fiction and following the evidence wherever it leads. The Lone Star tick. Alpha-Gal Syndrome. Government research. Big money. Big food. And the questions that refuse to go away. Today on Stinchfield.

Today on The Editors, Rich, Charlie, Noah, and Jim discuss the latest news from the war in Iran, Ken Paxton's defeat of John Cornyn in the Texas Senate primary, and the appeal of Spencer Pratt in Los Angeles. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.
RINO incumbent senator John Cornyn goes down in Liz Cheney-style flames as MAGA supported and Trump endorsed Ken Paxton slaughters him in the Lone Star primary runoff - and democrats are left stunned. Paxton's November challenger James Talarico hits the fake news circuit to claim Paxton is unelectable because he is morally compromised. Democrats may pretend "Low T" Talarico is their guy - but common sense Americans are paying attention. And that idea is terrifying to the deep state.
Ken Paxton defeats John Cornyn in the Texas Republican primary — and Democrats couldn't be happier. But Paxton will face Democrat James Talarico come November, and that means a lot of campaign money will have to be raised between now and then. Playbook's Jack Blanchard and Adam Wren get into all of this and more about the Lone Star state.

Let's consult our dear friend Pattern Recognition to help answer that question...Episode links:JOE ROGAN: “The tick thing is nuts...” TIM BURCHETT: “Because of Bill Gates.” ROGAN: “Farmers and ranchers are finding boxes of ticks on their property. I have a good friend who got bit by the Lone Star tick and has that alpha-gal problem... It makes your body allergic to red meat.” BURCHETT: “And who has got genetically made meat now?” ROGAN: "Bill Gates?" BURCHETT: "Bill Gates."Lyme disease has afflicted 15% of residents in Nantucket, Massachusetts. The tick-borne illness is found primarily in the Northeast, but it's spreading across the U.S.NBC News is now making videos “Debunking the tick conspiracy theory”THE ENERGY STAR SCAM IS OFFICIALLY BUSTED - They've been plastering “Energy Star” stickers on your fridge, washer, and AC for decades — promising massive savings, lower bills, and “saving the planet.” It's all a sham. Watch this brand-new Energy Star fridge get absolutely destroyed by an unrestored 86-year-old fridge that's twice its size.The World Economic Forum is now calling for millions of cats and dogs worldwide to be killed in an attempt to reduce the carbon footprint that they produce as a result of eating meat.One of the largest raw dairy farms in America was told to lie on their raw cheese label by the FDA They were told to pasteurize the cheese then put “raw” on the label. The FDA has been telling other brands to do this, and it's true. He shows proof with examplesNicholas Hulcher: “The U.S. Army released 282,800 radioactive ticks into Virginia & Montana to see how far & how fast they'd spread for biowarfare purposes. That includes 152,000 Carbon-14 tagged Lone Star ticks. This was in the 1960s.”CONFIRMED: Robert Malone to Chanel Rion — YES, the U.S. Government dropped Radioactive Ticks on AmericansHANTAVIRUS “OUTBREAK” IS A FULL-SCALE PSYOP.

Texas voters head to the polls for a high-stakes Republican Senate runoff that could test President Trump's influence once again. Senator John Cornyn is fighting to fend off a Trump-endorsed challenge from Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, as both candidates argue they are best positioned to keep the seat in Republican hands ahead of November. With several recent GOP incumbents losing primaries across the country, the outcome could signal how much sway the President still holds within the party heading into the midterms. University of Texas Professor and FOX News Decision Desk member Daron Shaw joins the Rundown to break down the political stakes in Texas, and what the race could mean for Republicans nationwide. Mental health awareness has helped reduce stigma and encouraged more people to seek support, but some experts warn the culture surrounding therapy may be creating new problems. Psychotherapist and author Jonathan Alpert joins the Rundown to discuss his new book, Therapy Nation, and why he believes Americans are becoming too quick to identify with mental health struggles instead of working through them.

A Gold Star widow makes a Memorial Day request that anyone near Arlington National Cemetery might visit her dead husband's grave because she could not make the journey.... and the response is incredible. Are we really a nation divided? It's senate primary runoff day in Texas as the betting markets say Ken Paxton has a 95% chance of beating John Cornyn. Is the RINO class finally getting MAGA's message? Minneapolis's mayor proves why his is a dying city and Cory Booker's presidential plans come to light.

A Message from Cameron:When I asked Cameron if there was a message he wanted to share with listeners, he chose to leave us with scripture, a reflection of his faith, his heart, and the perspective he carries into the outdoors. Show me the right path, O Lord; point out the road for me to follow. Lead me by your truth and teach me, for you are the God who saves me. All day long I put my hope in you.Psalms 25:4-5Episode Description:This episode is a special one because it is not just about the longest continuous hiking trail in Texas, t is about friendship, planning, suffering a little bit, laughing a lot, and finally taking on a trail that every Texas backpacker eventually starts looking at and thinking, “Yeah… I probably need to do that.”Cameron and I sit down to talk about our four-day thru-hike of the Lone Star Hiking Trail, the longest continuous hiking trail in Texas and one of those trails I think every Texas backpacker eventually feels like they need to do.Before we get into the miles, caches, campsites, and all the planning that went into it, we rewind a little and talk about how we actually met, from the Guadalupe Mountains hiking community on Facebook, to a YouTube meet-up, to hiking together at Cleburne State Park, where I may or may not have almost died.We talk about how the LSHT first came up, what we expected going into it, and how the idea of doing it in four days felt before we ever stepped on trail. Cameron and I also break down the planning side of the trip, daily mileage, real-life time limits, where we placed our caches, and how much room we left for things to go wrong.This episode is part trail story, part planning breakdown, and part two hikers laughing about the decisions that somehow got us across the longest trail in Texas.Four days. A lot of miles. A few questionable choices.

“Could Sandy Really Beat Rip? The Showdown, The Salad Disaster & The Orange Barrel Takeover” “If it came down to it… could you actually take down your TV hero in a fight?” That question sparks one of the most unexpectedly hilarious debates on this episode of The JB and Sandy Show—and trust us, it escalates fast. Sandy boldly claims he could take on Rip from Yellowstone, setting off a full-blown breakdown of fighting styles, physical limitations (hello, shoulder issues), and one unforgettable story involving a bar, a pretzel-like takedown, and a Lone Star beer that never spilled. This episode is packed with laugh-out-loud moments and relatable chaos, from a wildly inappropriate (yet undeniably funny) take on a dad explaining divorce, to Sandy unleashing one of his most passionate—and poetic—odes ever. This time? A fiery tribute to Austin's most controversial “landmark”: the orange construction barrel. “You whisper, merge left… then you shout, no merge right!” becomes the battle cry for anyone who's ever sat in traffic questioning their life choices. It's sharp, it's hilarious, and it perfectly captures the spirit of a city that feels permanently under construction. And then there's Tricia's long-awaited kitchen triumph… or not. After multiple attempts and a fridge full of sacrificed lettuce, she finally makes the “famous” salad—only to deliver the brutally honest verdict: “I didn't like it.” Pair that with frozen pizza and you've got a dinner story that's painfully relatable. Other standout moments include: JB's surprising defense of Sandy in the Rip debate: “I'm betting my money on Sandy.” A classic TV quote that still hits: “I don't believe in intuition… but I have a funny feeling that someday I will.” A reality check on the scorching summer ahead and how many triple-digit days Austin might endure.

Our friend Baptiste Marchais makes his return to the show this week. Having fled the Muslim/Socialism takeover of his native France for Texas 4 years ago, Baptiste is the epitome of an immigrant success story. He built his outfitter/tourism business from literally nothing into a thriving enterprise that brings European hunters to the Lone Star [...]
You could be waking up at 3am with severe stomach pain, hives, or worse, and your doctor might have no idea why. In this episode of the Gut Check Project, Dr. Kenneth Brown and Eric Rieger break down one of the most under-diagnosed conditions in America: Alpha-Gal Syndrome (AGS), a red meat allergy triggered not by the meat itself, but by a single tick bite.They're joined by Dr. Bryan Allgire, a board-certified ER physician from East Texas who has AGS himself. He shares a firsthand account of how three tick bites quietly rewired his immune system and what happened the night his mother-in-law's beef stew sent him into the worst pain of his life.If you spend any time outdoors east of the Rockies, this episode could change how you think about your gut symptoms forever.Topics covered:What alpha-gal syndrome actually is and why it's the only known sugar allergen. Why your blood type determines your risk (type B? You're probably safe). The Lone Star tick larvae you can't see that can still bite you. Why AGS is likely behind thousands of mystery GI cases going undiagnosed. Hidden sources of alpha-gal including porcine heart valves, Armour Thyroid, and pancreatic enzymes. Emerging treatments including acupuncture protocols and hyperbaric oxygen therapy. The shocking 12.8x increased risk of coronary artery disease linked to AGS.
RURAL ROUTE EXPOSES TICK DISEASE DANGERS, FOOD CRISIS FEARS, AND SILVER MARKET SURGE On this episode of Rural Route, Trent Loos welcomes JC Cole from New Jersey for a powerful and wide-ranging discussion covering tick-borne illnesses, food security, precious metals, and growing concerns about global control systems. The conversation begins with a warning about Lone Star ticks and the rapid rise of alpha-gal syndrome, a serious condition that can cause allergic reactions to red meat. JC shares his recent experience dealing with ticks while discussing how people today consume information through podcasts and audio books instead of traditional media. The episode then dives into the history of warfare and disease research during World War I, as Trent and JC question the motives of world leaders and the long-term impact of global conflicts. They discuss Lyme disease, Alpha-gal syndrome, and alternative health treatments, including the controversial Reif machine, which JC claims uses electronic frequencies to fight disease. The conversation also explores government secrecy, newly released UFO files, and theories involving giants and demons described in ancient religious texts. Later in the program, Trent and JC turn their focus to the economy and America's food supply crisis. They discuss refinery explosions, drought conditions impacting nearly 60% of American farmers, and dangerously low cattle numbers. The pair also examine the booming gold and silver markets, with JC predicting silver could dramatically outperform gold in the future. Concerns over Del Monte's bankruptcy, California destroying thousands of peach trees, and growing threats to local food production create a strong warning about the importance of protecting America's farmers and ranchers.RURAL ROUTE14 SeasonsPlayingMAY 20262026-05-13 RURAL ROUTEEpisode 12026-05-12 RURAL ROUTEEpisode 22026-05-11 RURAL ROUTEEpisode 32026-05-08 RURAL ROUTEEpisode 42026-05-07 RURAL ROUTEEpisode 52026-05-06 RURAL ROUTEEpisode 62026-05-05 RURAL ROUTEEpisode 72026-05-04 RURAL ROUTEEpisode 82026-05-01 RURAL ROUTEEpisode 9

In Kim on a Whim, Kim dives into the surge in tick-related ER visits and the growing fear surrounding alpha-gal syndrome, the meat allergy linked to Lone Star tick bites. She highlights the death of a New Jersey man after unknowingly developing the condition and shares stories of people who can no longer eat red meat—or even be near cattle. The segment then veers into conspiracy territory as Kim explores claims that ticks may have been bioengineered for warfare or social engineering, citing old research discussions and listener theories tied to Lyme disease, climate change, Fauci, and Operation Paperclip. Marc pushes back on some of the speculation while agreeing the rapid rise in tick problems is alarming, and the segment closes with practical talk about repellents, outdoor precautions, and frustration over hidden health risks from tick bites.

Hour 1 opens with Marc Cox reacting to surprise storms after getting caught in unexpected rain before diving into severe weather chaos across Missouri, including shocking video of baseball-sized hail destroying cars in Springfield and reports of zoo animals killed during the storm. Marc warns listeners about post-storm roofing scams while noting St. Louis narrowly missed similar devastation after recent tornadoes and damaging winds. The hour then turns political as Marc reviews King Charles' Washington visit, praising his dry humor and Boston Tea Party jokes while mocking Democrats who oppose “kings” yet applauded royalty in Congress. Kim on a Whim centers on the rise in tick bites and alpha-gal syndrome, the meat allergy tied to Lone Star ticks, before spiraling into debates over bioengineered tick theories, Lyme disease, Fauci, and climate-driven infestations. The hour closes with Marc defending himself from listener backlash over the tick segment and reacting to a Cincinnati teacher fired after posting disappointment that Donald Trump survived a recent assassination attempt.

Episode 198: Gimme Five by Carter Bays and Craig Thomas This month's second dead pilot from Carter Bays and Craig Thomas is Gimme Five. Best known as the co-creators and longtime showrunners of How I Met Your Mother, Carter and Craig previously wrote for The Late Show with David Letterman and produced American Dad. They co-wrote this pilot with legendary writer Peter Tolan, whose credits include The Larry Sanders Show, Rescue Me, Analyze This, Analyze That, and many more. Here's the log line. It's 1985, and Gimme Five is the number two family sitcom in America. But behind the scenes of this feel-good show is a dysfunctional workplace family on the verge of self-destruction. Showrunner Cliff McConnell must somehow keep it together and keep being funny in the midst of his newborn son's health crisis. Sharp, outrageous, and wildly funny, Gimme Five gives a behind-the-scenes look at comedy writing that feels both absurd and strangely authentic. It may also be one of the funniest pilots ever featured on the podcast. Major content Warning, definitely think twice about listening to this one with small children in the room. You may hear something that offends you early on in this pilot, but please stick with it. Stay tuned for part two of Andrew's Interview with Carter and Craig, in your feed April 30th. Our cast for the show includes Taran Killam (SNL, High Potential, Stumble), Chris Diamantopoulos (Beavis and Butthead, Silicon Valley), Scott Foley (Scandal, Scream 7), Dallas Goldtooth (Reservation Dogs), Tami Sagher (Inside Amy Schumer), Chris DiStefano (stand up), James Urbaniak (Venture Brothers), Isabella Gomez (One Day at a Time, Shrinking), Cyrina Fiallo (High Potential, 911 Lonestar), Alyssa Limperis (What We Do In the Shadows), Burl Moseley (Crazy Ex-Girlfriend) Dead Pilots Society is supported by MaxFun members contributing $5 a month or more, and this is the time of year to say thanks and invite new listeners to join.

This is not your father's brother's nephew's cousin's former roommate's neo-noir western. This is John Sayle's interrogating generational legacies of racism, corruption, compromise, and passion in a south Texas border town. *Come support the podcast and get yourself or someone you love a random gift at our merch store. T-shirts, hoodies, mugs, stickers, and more! If you'd like to watch ahead for next week's film, we will be discussing and reviewing Richard Lester's A Hard Day's Night (1964).
Ralph welcomes Professor Nicholas Chater, co-author of “It's on You: How Corporations and Behavioral Scientists Have Convinced Us That We're to Blame for Society's Deepest Problems.” Then, as most of the media turns its attention to Iran, we return to the ongoing genocide in Gaza and welcome back Dr. Feroze Sidhwa to break down his three-part series published in Zeteo called “The Truth About Gaza's Dead.”Nick Chater is Professor of Behavioural Science at Warwick Business School. He has written and co-written more than two hundred research papers and six books, including It's on You: How Corporations and Behavioral Scientists Have Convinced Us That We're to Blame for Society's Deepest Problems (co-written with George Loewenstein).I was on a UK government committee as the representative of behavioural science for six years, where my role was (at least I understood my role to be) coming up with smart-aleck ideas about what individual nudges or bits of useful information we could give to the public—how that would help people reduce their carbon emissions. And I came away from that experience extremely chastened. Because almost all the interesting issues were nothing to do whatsoever with individual behavior. They were all about big systemic changes… And the shock for me was realizing that the tools that I was hoping to wield were in fact completely ineffective.Nick ChaterI think it's absolutely true that many of the things that behavioral scientists are supposedly “discovering” [are] the things that campaigners and activists and indeed people in the political world generally and journalists intuitively have long known, and indeed probably have good evidence for. It's simply— it's sort of a sad process of trailing-along-behind which I think the academic world has been engaged in, where we've been slowly realizing that things that everybody else knew initially are actually true after all.Nick ChaterOne of the most powerful things that each of us has is the ability to propagate our own perspective and to campaign for change…I think getting people pulling together and pushing for change can be incredibly powerful. So seeing ourselves as citizens who are actively able to have our voice, make our voices heard, I think that's where the real power lies. And I think that the campaigners and political activists and so on have always known this. And of course, also, big businesses have always known this too. And they certainly don't want us to be doing too much of that. They want us to be focusing on quite the opposite. They want us to be focusing on our own gardens and not worrying about the big picture. They don't want organized opposition.Nick ChaterDr. Feroze Sidhwa is a general, trauma, and critical care surgeon in California. He is also a humanitarian surgeon who has worked in Palestine, Ukraine, Haiti, Zimbabwe, and Burkina Faso. He most recently volunteered at Nasser Medical Complex in Khan Younis, Gaza. He was blocked from entering Gaza by Israel's Shin Bet intelligence service in November 2025.In the first 25 days of the assault on Gaza, more children were killed than in the entire worst year of conflict that Airwars had ever studied previously, which was Syria in 2016. In the first 25 days in Gaza, between 2,200 and 2,600 children were killed in Gaza, compared to 1,900 in Syria. So again, if you adjust for the size of the population (because Syria is a much bigger country than Gaza is a territory), the rate of killing of children in Gaza was 71 to 142 times higher than it was in the worst year on record for children in conflict—Syria in 2016.Dr. Feroze SidhwaGaza is a place where infants freeze to death if they are not sheltered. Well, there are no sheltered infants in Gaza for any practical purposes. They're all unsheltered. So we have a list of the actual names of a dozen or two dozen children who have actually frozen to death…And there is shelter—ready-made mobile shelters for hundreds of thousands of people right outside of Gaza. It's in Egypt and it's in Jordan. The only thing that's stopping anybody from bringing it in is the US and Israel…This is just dastardly. We should think about it for a second—we (meaning Americans) [are] living in a country where neither political party seems to care that we are freezing infants to death.Dr. Feroze SidhwaRight now, the Israelis are blocking cough medicine from going into Gaza. And the reason (they say) is because it contains glycerin. Now, glycerin, in theory, can be used to make explosives. But it's one picogram or something—it's just part of a pill or the syrup that goes into it, right? This is children's cough medicine. The idea that Hamas or Islamic Jihad or anybody else in Gaza has the laboratory equipment and facilities that would be needed to extract the 0.01% of glycerin that's in a pill or a medical syrup to then make a bomb is beyond idiotic. Furthermore, we all know that there's (and I'm speaking literally) hundreds of tons of unexploded Israeli bombs—actually I should say unexploded US bombs—all over the Gaza Strip. That's where Hamas gets all of its explosives from. It just repurposes unexploded Israeli munitions. So all of this is just sheer nonsense.Dr. Feroze SidhwaNews 4/24/26* Our top stories this week have to do with people losing their jobs. First up, Apple CEO Tim Cook – the handpicked successor of Steve Jobs who has led the tech giant for the past 15 years – announced this week that he would transition away from the CEO role. While he will remain on as Executive Chairman, John Ternus, the company's head of hardware engineering, will take over at the helm, PBS reports. Cook's tenure at Apple has received mixed evaluations, with many applauding the steady handed executive for adding an estimated $3.6 trillion in market value to the company, while others have critiqued his supposed lack of innovation compared to his predecessor. Some hope his more technical-minded successor will put more emphasis on product development moving forward. Like many tech CEOs, Cook went to great lengths to ingratiate himself with President Trump in his second term, donating $1 million to his inaugural committee and gifting Trump a glass plaque set in 24-karat gold last August.* Meanwhile, Secretary of Labor Lori Chavez-DeRemer resigned this week amid “an internal investigation into her conduct,” which included “instructing staff to buy her bottles of sauvignon blanc on work trips… [stashing] liquor in her office, [encouraging] young female staffers to ‘pay attention' to her father and husband, [having] an affair with a member of her security detail, and [arranging] work travel to visit family and friends,” per Vox. For the time being, the Labor Department will be headed by Keith Sonderling, whom POLITICO calls a “quintessential Washington insider who is well-connected in the capital's Republican circles and his home state of Florida.” Sources quoted in this piece identify Sonderling as a key behind-the-scenes player in the administration whose accumulated influence “extends well beyond DOL.” The choice of Chavez-DeRemer, a former Congresswoman who was seen as perhaps the most labor-friendly Republican in the House, was supported at the time by Trump-aligned Teamster boss Sean O'Brien; her ouster therefore, represents the latest humiliating setback for his strategy of cozying up to Trump to win favorable treatment for his membership. In the words of a recent Current Affairs piece published before the downfall of Chavez-DeRemer, “Sean O'Brien Sold Labor to Trump, and Got Nothing.”* In the House, Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick resigned her seat this week, just minutes before the House Ethics Committee was set to weigh punishment for the Congresswoman, whom the panel had previously found guilty of “a slew of ethics violations, including accusations that she stole millions in pandemic relief funds and used it to bolster her 2021 campaign,” according to CNN. Cherfilus-McCormick was one of the four Members of Congress included in the proposed bipartisan expulsion deal some weeks ago, along with Representatives Swalwell, Gonzales, and Mills. With the first two gone, a tremendous amount of pressure is sure to be exerted on Congressman Mills to resign as well. Prior to resigning, Cherfilus-McCormick was already facing a stiff primary challenge from young progressive Elijah Manley. Now, it seems her seat – representing hundreds of thousands in Broward and Palm Beach counties – could remain vacant until a new member is sworn in next January, with Florida Governor Ron DeSantis unlikely to call a special election before then.* Also in Congress, Axios reports Representative David Scott of Georgia, a powerful Black Georgia Democrat who served in the lower house for over 20 years, passed away this week at age 80. Scott, who rose to become the first Black chair of the key House Committee on Agriculture, had filed to run again in 2026 despite rumored resistance from his colleagues. His death leaves Georgia's 13th district without representation in the House and amounts to a stunning fourth death-based Democratic House vacancy in the past year. Like the ones that preceded it, this must be seen as a bright red warning signal to Democratic leadership.* In DC more broadly, the employment picture looks even worse. According to a new report in the Guardian, the combined purging of 300,000 jobs from the federal government – the piece notes this is the “region's largest employer” – by Elon Musk's absurd Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) initiative, with another 13,000 job cuts in the private sector, has left DC with the highest unemployment rate in the nation at 6.7%. With little sign of increased hiring in the public or private sectors, there is no indication this trend will reverse itself any time soon.* Elsewhere in the DMV, this week Virginia voters approved a referendum to amend the state constitution allowing Democrats to redraw the state's congressional districts in their favor. Currently, Virginia Democrats hold six districts to the Republicans' five; under the new map, Democrats are poised to hold 10 districts and the Republicans just one. This is the latest episode in the mid-decade redistricting fight begun last year, when Texas Republicans sought to redraw the Lone Star state's maps to be more favorable to the GOP. This set off a stampede of states seeking to redraw their district lines. Now, in light of the Virginia referendum passing, Florida is threatening to redraw their maps to the detriment of Democrats there. The Hill reports House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, taking a sharper tone than usual, responded to news of the Florida redistricting attempt with a statement reading “If Florida Republicans proceed with this illegal scheme, they will only create more prime pick-up opportunities for Democrats, just as they did with Trump's dummymander in Texas…[he vowed] maximum warfare, everywhere, all the time.”* In California, the downfall of Eric Swalwell has resulted in the unexpected rise of another candidate – former Congressman, California Attorney General, and Biden-era Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra. Between April 10th and April 22nd, Becerra surged from a polling average of under 4% to an average of 13% – and in some polls, even moved into first place. While Becerra seeks to consolidate this spike in support, progressives are airing long-held grievances. David Sirota, former Bernie Sanders campaign advisor and founder of the Lever, cited that publication's 2021 report on how “As California AG, [Becerra] demanded the HHS secretary use existing law to lower medicine prices - and then he became HHS secretary & literally refused to do that.” Others have pointed out that, according to Transparency USA, Becerra's campaign has received massive donations from the likes of Chevron. Progressive billionaire Tom Steyer on the other hand this week received the endorsement of Our Revolution, closely aligned with Bernie Sanders, which noted that “Yes, Tom Steyer is a billionaire. But it matters what he is doing with that power: pushing for taxes on the wealthy, expanding universal programs, and dismantling corporate influence in our politics.”* In another case of politics making strange bedfellows, the Chicago Tribune reports the political arm of Planned Parenthood is making an endorsement in the race to succeed retiring Rep. Jesús “Chuy” García in Illinois 4th congressional district. Except, in this case, the reproductive rights group is not endorsing the Democrat in the race. Listeners may recall that Congressman García was sharply criticized for his maneuvering to ensure his chief of staff Patty García would be the Democratic nominee. This has forced other potential aspirants to run as independents. These include DSA-aligned Chicago Alderman Byron Sigcho-López and activist Mayra Macías – the latter of whom won the Planned Parenthood Action endorsement this week. The Tribune notes that Macías served on the board of Planned Parenthood Action until the beginning of this year. In a statement, Planned Parenthood President Alexis McGill Johnson called Macías “a proven leader,” who “will be unrelenting in the fight to protect access to sexual and reproductive health care.”* Turning to international news, in South Africa, leftist politician and leader of the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) party Julius Malema was sentenced to five years in prison this week for “firing a rifle in the air at a party rally,” Al Jazeera reports. Unsurprisingly, given that the EFF is the fourth largest political party in South Africa, this case has become a rallying cry for Malema's supporters, with those same supporters accusing the prosecution of being politically motivated. Presiding Magistrate Twanet Olivier disputes this, contending that it “is not a political party who has been convicted here … it is a person, an individual.” Malema's lawyers immediately applied for – and were granted – leave to appeal, but if these appeals fail Malema could be barred from serving as a Member of Parliament.* Finally, in more positive news from abroad, Reuters reports that the much-trumpeted summit of the global Left held in Barcelona this week – designed to help progressives rally their forces to defeat modern reactionary Right-wing nationalism characterized by figures like Trump – drew over 6,000 attendees from over 40 countries. Headline speakers included Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez, Brazilian President Lula, Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum, Colombian President Gustavo Petro and South African President Cyril Ramaphosa. From the United States, an ecclectic group addressed the summit, ranging from video messages of support from Hilary Clinton to Bernie Sanders to Zohran Mamdani, with an in-person address by Minnesota Governor and former Vice-Presidential candidate Tim Walz. A recurrent theme, hammered home by Isabel Allende, former Senate president of Chile and daughter of Salvador Allende, Chile's leftist president ousted in a U.S.-backed coup and replaced with the dictator Augusto Pinochet, was that the left has become too distant from the daily concerns of workers, stating in no uncertain terms that “It's unimaginable to fight against the right if we can't get closer to ordinary people.”This has been Francesco DeSantis with In Case You Haven't Heard.

In the dusty border town of Frontera, Texas, history has a way of refusing to stay buried. When a skeleton is unearthed in the desert alongside a rusted sheriff's badge, current Sheriff Sam Deeds finds himself digging into a cold case that leads directly to his own father—a local legend whose heroic reputation might be built on a foundation of lies.

Episode 196: New York Mythological by Carter Bays and Craig Thomas This month's dead pilot, kicking off the 2026 MaxFunDrive, is New York Mythological, written by Carter Bays and Craig Thomas. Best known as the co-creators and showrunners of How I Met Your Mother, Carter and Craig previously wrote for The Late Show with David Letterman and produced American Dad. Carter is the author of the novel The Mutual Friend, Craig wrote the novel That's Not How It Happened, and together they're also members of the band The Solids. Craig also recently launched the How We Made Your Mother rewatch podcast. To celebrate the MaxFunDrive, Dead Pilots Society is featuring not one, but two pilots from Carter and Craig this month. The log line for New York Mythological - A new arrival joins the team at a museum devoted to exploring supernatural and paranormal phenomena in New York City.
