SCHEDULE JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW, 6-5-2026.1900 ADAMS BOULEVARD LA. Jeff Bliss highlights the stark contrast between Seattle's controlled homelessness and the pervasive crisis in Los Angeles. The discussion transitions to California's jungle primary, where late-arriving ballots in the Los Angelesmayoral race show statistically improbable gains for Karen Bass and Nithya Raman, fueling accusations of election irregularities. Jeff Bliss previews the opening of a massive, multi-story In-N-Out Burger in Las Vegas, predicting it will become a celebrity destination similar to Hollywood's historic clubs or New York's Stork Club. He also reflects on a rare 1955 invitation from Walt Disney, noting its role in establishing Disneyland's enduring cultural legacy. Richard Epstein examines the 14th Amendment's opening clause, distinguishing the robust rights of citizens from the conditional privileges of aliens. He argues that naturalization was historically a federal prerogative, noting that early statutes, influenced by Thomas Jefferson, included explicit racial exclusions for persons of African or Asiandescent. Richard Epstein disputes the "plain meaning" application to the 14th Amendment, arguing that "subject to the jurisdiction" requires natural allegiance rather than mere physical presence. Critiquing the Wong Kim Ark ruling, he suggests that children of legal permanent aliens should inherit their parents' status rather than automatic citizenship. Jim McTague reports on the cautious economic sentiment in Lancaster County, where despite falling gas prices, consumers remain budget-conscious. While tourism remains strong at venues like the Sight and Sound Theatre, local officials recently rejected a proposed data center in Columbia due to technicalities and concerns over its utility. Lorenzo Fiori provides an optimistic update on Italy's economy, noting improved employment rates across various demographics. He highlights a landmark legislative shift toward nuclear energy, with small plants planned by 2034. For travelers, he recommends San Miniato, a strategic, less-crowded Tuscan village famous for its white beans. Bob Zimmerman dismisses NASA's sheltering orders on the ISS as an overreaction to routine Russian repair work on the Zvezda module. He details SpaceX's massive IPO, which aims to raise billions, and observes that private space station firms like Axiom and Vast continue to secure significant capital despite SpaceX's market dominance. Bob Zimmerman surveys global spaceport developments, contrasting Spain's investment in French Guiana with the liquidation of the UK's Sutherland facility due to red tape. He debunks claims that the interstellar comet 3I/Atlas is an alien craft and notes that unpredictable sunspot activity continues to defy scientific models. Andrew Bayliss recounts how Pericles provoked the Peloponnesian War by steering Athens toward confrontation with Sparta. He details the Athenian strategy of retreating behind city walls and relying on naval imports, a move that tragically facilitated a devastating plague, claiming thousands of lives, including Pericleshimself. Andrew Bayliss profiles Lysander, a Spartan general of modest origins who secured crucial Persian funding to challenge Athenian naval supremacy. Lysander achieved victory not through direct combat, but by using deception to capture the Athenian fleet while the crews were uncharacteristically casual and off their ships. Andrew Bayliss explores the aftermath of Sparta's victory, noting that Lysander's immense power and ambition ultimately led to his death during a failed siege. Sparta's dominance eventually collapsed at the Battle of Leuctradue to a dwindling citizen population, reducing the once-mighty superpower to a minor village. Andrew Bayliss critiques the modern application of the "Thucydides Trap" to US-China relations, arguing that the original Peloponnesian War was not inevitable. He suggests the conflict was precipitated by specific provocations and accidental circumstances, drawing parallels to the circumstantial outbreak of the First World War. Henry Sokolski warns of China's fast breeder reactor program, which produces super weapons-grade plutonium capable of fueling efficient nuclear triggers. He also notes South Korea's growing interest in developing independent nuclear capabilities and submarines to counter threats from North Korea and China, despite international non-proliferation standards. Henry Sokolski explains the strategic significance of deploying Dual Capable Aircraft (DCA), such as the F-35, to reinforce NATO's nuclear deterrent in Europe. He observes that while Moscow and Beijing oppose these deployments, the aircraft act as vital "glue" for alliances, ensuring that American nuclear guarantees remain credible. Richard Epstein analyzes the Wong Kim Ark decision, arguing that Justice Horace Gray erroneously applied birthright citizenship to the children of ineligible aliens. He further critiques the expansion of the Equal Protection Clause in the 20th century, claiming it was originally intended for criminal matters rather than civil benefits. Richard Epstein discusses the legal complexities of a proposed executive order to end birthright citizenship for children of illegal aliens. He highlights the rise of "manufactured citizenship" through birth tourism and predicts the Supreme Court may eventually distinguish between transient visitors and those seeking permanent residency.

STREAMING THE MAKING OF JBS, FEATURING JEFF BLISS, MICHAEL VLAHOS, 6-5-2026.1906 LA FIESTA DE LOS ANGELES.This dialogue examines the socioeconomic and political challenges facing major West Coast cities, with a particular focus on the rise of socialist policies in Seattle and the resulting exodus of weTlthy residents and corporations. The speakers critique high-tax proposals and single-payer healthcare, arguing that these "confiscatory" measures place an unsustainable burden on the middle class while hollowing out urban centers. The conversation shifts to Los Angeles, highlighting controversies surrounding a recent primary election, including allegations of statistical irregularities in the vote count and the persistent issue of homelessness. Transitioning to lighter subjects, the participants discuss Las Vegas development and the historical significance of Disneyland's opening. Finally, the segment concludes with a geopolitical analysis of global conflicts, debating the potential for escalation in Ukraine and the Middle East.

Jeff Bliss highlights the stark contrast between Seattle's controlled homelessness and the pervasive crisis in Los Angeles. The discussion transitions to California's jungle primary, where late-arriving ballots in the Los Angeles mayoral race show statistically improbable gains for Karen Bass and Nithya Raman, fueling accusations of election irregularities.1865

Welcome to Last Call, a look at the biggest stories Jim and Greg covered over the past week on the 3 Martini Lunch.This week they discuss California's chaotic election process, MSNOW's Ali Velshi complaining that he can't celebrate America's 250th birthday because we're such a racist country, troubling new allegations against Maine Democratic Senate candidate Graham Platner, and a bizarre twist in Alaska's Senate race.First, Jim and Greg complain about California's inefficent vote counting. We are still waiting for results in the governor's race involving Xavier Becerra, Steve Hilton, and Tom Steyer, and the Los Angeles mayor's primary with Karen Bass, Spencer Pratt, and Nithya Raman. They also discuss disappointing results in other contests. Next, they react to MSNOW host Ali Velshi bemoaning how tough it is to celebrate 250 years since the Declaration of Independence because of what he considers our terribly racist history and our supposed mistreatment of women and minorities today.Then, they sift through the most recent allegations against Graham Platner from multiple former girlfriends, who describe what they call "reckless and unsettling" behavior. The accusations include aggressively grabbing women, forcing one woman's arm behind her back, and preventing her from leaving a room. But Democrats still support him.Finally, they focus on Alaska, where Sen. Dan Sullivan may have to share the ballot with another candidate named Dan Sullivan in the August primary. Is it a legitimate campaign or an attempt to create voter confusion? Greg and Jim also rip Alaska's convoluted voting system.Please visit our great sponsors:QuoMoney is on the line.

A shocking story out of Los Angeles, 81-year-old beloved actor James Handy was found with stab wounds to his chest after police received an eerie 9-1-1 call. Police say the caller was the son of Handy’s girlfriend who was living with the actor, 44-year-old Michael Gledhill. Wait until you hear what Gledhill told police, as investigators try to piece together the motive behind the brazen early morning attack, that left a man with more than 150 acting credits and a decades long career, dead on his own front lawn.

Jeff Bliss returns to discuss the complexities of the homelessness crisis in Los Angeles, noting that it involves deeply troubled individuals requiring mental health support. He highlights how criminal gangs exploit these populations, turning encampments into convenience stores. Bliss argues that solving this issue requires comprehensive policy changes from the governor, federal government, and healthcare providers.1903 FIESTA LA

A sci-fi ballet imagined a 2080 where AI strips people of purpose, and the day before its New York premiere, an actual dystopia arrived. Arc Iris, the trio of Jocie Adams, Zach Tenoriom and Ray Belli, built iTMRW as a concept record set in a future ruled by a mega-corporation that shares its name. In its world, AI has taken most jobs and even the thinking left inside them, so the corporation offers pods where anyone can live any dream in virtual reality. The piece premiered in Cambridge in January 2020, then its New York show collapsed the day before the lockdown. What follows is the story of a project that outlasted its own premise. When venues closed, they left Providence for Los Angeles, rebuilt a dilapidated house, spent eight months in a 120-square-foot shed, and constructed their own studio and stage. The dystopia they wrote became, in their telling, a personal utopia. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Is California finally turning on the political establishment? Is Europe unraveling in real time? And what happens when ideology collides with science? In this explosive episode of The Weekly Rundown, Jillian Michaels breaks down the biggest stories shaking America and the world. CALIFORNIA'S POLITICAL EARTHQUAKE The California primary results are in—and the establishment is officially on notice. Jillian reacts to Karen Bass' controversial election night appearance as Spencer Pratt surges in the Los Angeles mayoral race. Then the team breaks down the battle for governor as Steve Hilton gains momentum against Xavier Becerra, examining the policies driving crime, homelessness, economic decline, and the continued exodus of California families. Is California on the verge of a political realignment—or headed for even deeper trouble? THE PUBERTY BLOCKER DEBATE: THE SCIENCE THEY DON'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT After viral clips from Dave Rubins Jubilee debate and dangerous laims from woke commentator Sam Seder, Jillian delivers a data-driven takedown of the mainstream narrative surrounding puberty blockers and gender-affirming care for minors. Using findings from the landmark Cass Review, leaked WPATH files, international medical policy changes, and emerging research on youth gender medicine, she dismantles claims about gender affirming care being a “pause button, and highlights growing concerns surrounding bone density, fertility, sexual function, long-term health outcomes, and more. Plus, why have multiple European countries reversed course—and why are so many activists refusing to acknowledge the evidence? IRAN ESCALATES As breaking news unfolds during the show, reports emerge of an Iranian missile and drone attack targeting Kuwait's international airport. What does this mean for the Middle East? Is this an isolated event—or the beginning of something much bigger? PARIS BURNS & THE WESTERN IDENTITY CRISIS Following PSG's championship victory, Paris erupts into riots, mass arrests, injuries, and destruction. Jillian examines the growing intersection of immigration, assimilation, lawlessness, political extremism, and cultural fragmentation that many believe is transforming cities across Europe. Is Paris a warning—or a preview? THE UK STORY THAT LEFT EVERYONE STUNNED The team reacts to disturbing bodycam footage involving college student Henry Nowak, who was allegedly treated as a suspect after being stabbed multiple times when accusations of racism entered the situation. The case raises difficult questions about policing, justice, race, political pressure, and whether governments have become afraid to apply the law equally. HOPE IN THE DARKNESS To close the week, Jillian highlights stories that remind us humanity is capable of far more than division and chaos—from a moving military homecoming to breakthroughs in diabetes treatment, AI innovations reducing animal cruelty, major conservation victories, and record-breaking technological advances. Because while the headlines often focus on what's broken, there are still reasons to believe in what's possible.

(WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE) Today, 98% of all federal criminal cases are resolved with a guilty plea. Why? "Half a loaf is better than none. . . . When we have a weak case for any reason, we'll reduce to almost anything rather than lose." In modern America, "beyond a reasonable doubt" as determined by a jury has largely been replaced by the discretion of prosecutors to punish defendants for exercising their constitutional right to a trial by jury. So much so, defendants in pretrial detention are agreeing to plea "bargains" at a rate so high, it's difficult to deny the obvious: Innocence is irrelevant. Reb is joined by Hannah Bogen, a Federal Public Defender in the Office of the FPD for the Central District of California, the largest public defense office in the federal system. Hannah shares her firsthand experience with indigent defense, pretrial detention, plea bargaining, and sentencing policy—a rare glimpse into the real lives of her clients in the federal criminal system, and public defenders' enduring fight for dignity and mercy for the people whom society often forgets...Until it happens to you. **DISCLAIMER: The views and opinions discussed in this episode are personal to Hannah and Reb and do not reflect the views or opinions of the Office of the Federal Public Defender.** A huge thank you to Hannah Bogen for her time and unforgettable insight for this episode, and a gracious nod to the Offices of the Federal Public Defender in Los Angeles and around the country.

John discusses Donald Trump lying about his new memorials and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessant testifying badly in congress about the nations economy. He also talks about Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth again denying women and black men promotions in the military. And he is baffled by the sudden appearance of flesh eating maggots in Texas after they were totally eradicated 60 years ago. Next he interviews Dr. George Byron Koch who's the author of "Bullies, Parasites, and Slaves", a thought-provoking unveiling of how societies are structured to benefit a few at the expense of many.

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. We're Paying for Fraud Clay Travis and Buck Sexton talk about the massive government fraud and systemic inefficiencies, particularly within healthcare programs like Medicare and Medicaid. The hosts highlight a Department of Justice crackdown in Ohio involving fraud schemes totaling over $50 million, emphasizing that such cases are only “the tip of the iceberg.” Clay and Buck argue that healthcare fraud is a nationwide crisis, driven by bureaucratic complexity, lack of transparency, and excessive government involvement in the healthcare system. They cite examples of fraudulent billing practices—including cases where providers billed for nonexistent or even deceased patients—and criticize a system that allows billions in taxpayer funds to be misused. A key focus of the discussion is how healthcare costs and administrative bloat contribute to both inefficiency and fraud. The hosts point to the massive number of healthcare administrators and argue that the current structure incentivizes maximizing billing rather than delivering patient care. They also examine how ordinary Americans are disconnected from the true cost of healthcare, which reduces accountability and enables exploitation. Listener input reinforces this argument, with one caller suggesting that reintroducing direct patient financial responsibility could help restore cost discipline and reduce abuse. The Guy Behind the AI Pratt Videos Clay and Buck interview filmmaker Charles Curran, the creator behind the viral pro–Spencer Pratt AI political ads, which have become a major talking point in the ongoing Los Angeles mayoral race. They talk about the rise of artificial intelligence in political campaigns and digital media. Curran explains how his small team of four used emerging AI video tools to produce high-impact, low-cost campaign content that garnered hundreds of millions of views across social media and traditional platforms. The hosts emphasize that this represents a transformational shift in political communication, comparing AI-generated campaign videos to modern-day “political cartoons” that can cut through media noise and engage younger voters. They argue that AI-driven storytelling—rooted in humor, cultural relevance, and perceived authenticity—has the potential to disrupt traditional campaign advertising and lower production costs while dramatically increasing reach and influence. The interview also highlights growing dissatisfaction with conditions in Los Angeles, which inspired Curran’s work. He describes widespread concerns about crime, homelessness, public safety, and urban decay, noting that these issues extend beyond traditionally lower-income neighborhoods into more affluent areas. Clay and Buck connect this to a broader political narrative, suggesting that grassroots frustration with governance in California is fueling outsider candidates and unconventional campaign strategies like the Spencer Pratt movement. College Sports is the Wild, Wild West Clay and Buck interview House Majority Leader Steve Scalise, who outlines the legislative agenda heading into the summer and addresses key policy debates dominating Washington. A major focus is the ongoing effort to reform college athletics and NIL (Name, Image, and Likeness) policies, a rapidly evolving issue in sports law and governance. Scalise explains that Congress is working to reconcile differences between competing House and Senate bills aimed at restoring structure to what he describes as a “wild west” environment in college sports. He highlights concerns about lack of NCAA enforcement power, inconsistent state rules, athlete exploitation by agents, and the risk of athletes being classified as employees. The discussion emphasizes the need for antitrust protections, athlete safeguards, financial literacy programs, and standardized rules to stabilize college athletics while maintaining competitiveness across conferences. The conversation then shifts to legislative priorities and government reform, with Scalise detailing efforts to pass funding for the Department of Homeland Security, combat massive healthcare fraud, and address housing affordability. A key talking point is the discovery of tens of billions of dollars in alleged fraud within federal healthcare programs, reinforcing a broader theme across the show about government inefficiency and the need for stronger oversight. The hosts and Scalise frame these initiatives as part of a broader push to reduce wasteful spending, improve national security, and deliver tangible economic benefits for American households. Clay and Buck Going to Hollywood? Clay and Buck talk with bestselling author Brad Thor, who joins the show to discuss his latest thriller Choke Point, the future of storytelling, and the intersection of fiction with real-world geopolitics. Thor provides insights into his writing process, explaining how he develops plotlines inspired by current events—such as China’s Belt and Road Initiative—and transforms them into high-stakes geopolitical thrillers. He also shares his views on artificial intelligence in creative industries, arguing that while AI can generate content, it lacks the human creativity and emotional depth needed for compelling storytelling. The discussion with Thor expands into Hollywood, streaming platforms like Netflix, and the adaptation of books into movies and television, highlighting a growing trend of multimedia storytelling. Thor also previews upcoming projects, including a major film adaptation of his work, underscoring the continued convergence of traditional publishing and visual media in today’s entertainment landscape.

Today on The Gist, Mike revisits the suddenly shifting Spencer Pratt/Nithya Raman race in Los Angeles, where prediction markets flipped as late-arriving California ballots changed the picture. The bigger question: is slow vote-counting actually a democratic problem, or mostly a problem for people who want election night to behave like a TV show? Then, Stanford social psychologist Claude Steele joins to discuss his new book Churn: The Tension That Divides Us and How to Overcome It. Steele, known for coining the term "stereotype threat", argues that prejudice and bias are real but not the whole story. Much of American life is shaped by the fear of being seen through a stereotype, or accused of seeing someone else that way. Mike and Steele talk DEI, color blindness, anti-racism, policing, trust, and why “be open and curious” may beat a lot of official diversity training.   Produced by Corey Wara Edited by Geoff Craig Do you have questions or comments, or just want to say hello?

Today's Headlines: California and Iowa held their primaries Tuesday — Becerra and Hilton are leading California's governor's race with Steyer's money in a distant third, Karen Bass is holding first in LA's mayoral race with Spencer Pratt in second, and several Beverly Hills residents showed up to vote for Pratt only to discover they don't live in Los Angeles, perfect. Missing New Jersey congressman Tom Kean Jr. — absent for three months — won his uncontested primary anyway, with Trump endorsing him and calling him "tireless," while Kean remains well enough to execute stock trades but not apparently to show up to work. The House passed a War Powers Resolution requiring Trump to withdraw from Iran unless Congress authorizes the war — four Republicans defecting. Iranian drones struck Kuwait's main airport yesterday killing at least one person, and Trump defined the current ceasefire as "when you're shooting in a more moderate manner." The Kushner Albania situation escalated to over 100,000 protesters, a government corruption investigation, and frozen bank accounts tied to the land company behind their resort, over how ecologically protected land was quietly reclassified to clear the way for their development. George Santos is under investigation by the DOJ and CFTC for betting against his own State of the Union attendance on Kalshi after publicly tweeting he'd be there to inflate the odds — which is the most on-brand insider trading imaginable. And finally, DOGE whistleblower Daniel Berulis filed a defamation lawsuit against Elon Musk, revealing that less than a week after his whistleblower report was published, someone cut the brakes on his car, removed the airbag sensor, and left fingerprints inside — with the only entities that had his address on record being his utilities and the Office of Personnel Management, which DOGE had already taken over.

 In today's hard-hitting episode, Patrick steps into the anchor chair to rip back the curtain on a system where nothing is as it seems. We break down the staggering logistical discrepancies between states like Florida—which counts over 11 million votes in a matter of hours—and California, where hundreds of thousands of mail-in ballots linger for days until the establishment's preferred candidates mysteriously edge ahead. Looking closely at real-time local data and anomalous statistical jumps in the Los Angeles mayoral track, Patrick exposes why the modern election cycle increasingly feels like a coordinated illusion managed by a specialized class rather than a true reflection of the people's will. From the West Coast to a controversial Democratic primary in New Jersey, we ask the critical question: Are our representatives being elected by American citizens, or selected by the state?The capture of American institutions goes far deeper than a rigged ballot box. Patrick dives into the shocking backgrounds of political figures rising through local and national ranks, spotlighting jaw-dropping connections to convicted terror financiers and radical activists who openly call for dismantling the United States government on our own soil. We connect the dots to show how this ideological shift aligns perfectly with a top-down war on the traditional nuclear family. From the floor of the New York City Council to radicalized Ivy League campuses, the assault is multi-pronged: outlawing foundational words like "mother" and "father" on government documentation while replacing them with cold, bureaucratic terms designed to strip away our shared heritage and identity.Joining the show is independent consultant James McAndrew to dissect what Joe Rogan and Theo Von recently exposed: a powerful, unelected "third group" that has quietly infiltrated both major political parties to dictate national policy from the shadows. Together, Patrick and James break down how big tech censorship, calculated media infighting, and the deliberate demoralization of our education system work in tandem to keep the public distracted and divided. If America is the "fascist dictatorship" that radicalized students claim it is, why are millions risking everything to cross our borders for a shot at the American Dream? It's time to stop falling for the distraction, face the blatant truth of how we are being managed, and reclaim the country before the illusion becomes our permanent reality.

The Dedeaux Download Podcast returns with Shotgun Spratling and podcast co-host Kasey Kazliner breaking down USC baseball's unreal run through the loser's bracket in the College Station Regional, winning four games in a row to be able to take the title and advance to the program's first super regional since 2005. At the end of the show, the podcasting duo also previews this weekend's Chapel Hill Super Regional where USC is two wins away from a trip to the College World Series in Omaha.But in between, special guest USC freshman outfielder Walter Urbon joins the show to talk about the wild weekend in Texas where the Trojans dropped their NCAA tournament opener in heartbreaking fashion to Texas State only to have that light a bonfire under the Trojans. USC's offense caught absolute fire, scoring 55 runs in four blowout wins to take home the regional."It kind of felt like we were playing and scoring and I didn't even know who we were playing against," Urbon says. "We just went and scored runs and beat them."Urbon also discusses the atmosphere in Blue Bell Park where the home-standing Texas A&M fans didn't have much to cheer about the final two nights of the regional as the Trojans thumped the Aggies twice, including how USC knew they were going to take care of business once it forced the winner-take-all Game 7"After we did that that [Sunday] night with their fans there, we had zero doubt," Urbon says. "We were totally going to win. We just fed off the energy."Urbon also discusses his journey this season from the unfamiliar territory of not playing every day to getting his chance because of an injury and then running with it and never looking back. The Los Angeles native also discusses his defense and how an activity like the Brazilian dance fighting exercise capoeira helps him stay grounded and athletic.Prior to Urbon's appearance, Shotgun and Kasey break down the regional win and what it means for the Trojans as they note three positives, including a full roster of players stepping up and quieting some of their critics. They also look at the loss of pitching coach Sean Allen after he was named the next head coach at Lamar...three days after the Trojans eliminated Lamar from the NCAA tournament.

Actor, writer, musician, and podcast host Jonah Platt (Wicked, Being the Ricardos) joins host Donny for a candid, courageous conversation about Jewish identity, antisemitism in Hollywood, and what it means to unapologetically embrace who you are.

In this episode: Why so many Hollywood stars stayed silent after October 7th — and what that silence really reveals What "Going Full Jew" means and how it can transform your relationship with your Jewish identity The danger of divisiveness within the Jewish community and why unity matters more than ever How the word "Zionist" has been co-opted — and what we should do about it The Democratic Party's shifting relationship with Jewish voters and Israel How speaking out has actually opened doors in Jonah's entertainment career The Los Angeles mayoral race, Spencer Pratt, and what 2026 politics looks like Whether you're Jewish, an ally, or simply someone who cares about truth, identity, and moral courage in public life, this is a conversation you won't want to miss.

If you're tired of woke leadership destroying American cities, this is a must-watch. Reality TV star and Republican fighter Spencer Pratt advanced to face Karen Bass head-to-head after strong primary results. In his victory speech, Pratt made it crystal clear: He's coming for the incumbent with everything he's got. From cleaning up the homeless crisis that has turned Los Angeles into a nightmare to holding officials accountable for the devastating wildfires that destroyed homes — including his own — Pratt is promising common-sense solutions over endless progressive excuses. We also cover: Marco Rubio DESTROYS the Left. Candace Owens' family vacation in St. Petersburg, Russia. DOJ scraps Trump's Anti-Weaponization Fund. James Talarico says God is not a Christian. Tom Homan is back, and this time he's ANGRY.

- Spencer Pratt makes the runoff in Los Angeles and Steve Hilton advances in California, turning the state into a live test of whether anti-establishment campaigns can finally crack the Democratic machine. - Graham Platner's collapse deepens as Democrats dodge basic questions, reporters chase him through Washington, and allies suddenly look terrified of whatever drops next. - The show warns that Islamist influence is not coming but already here, pointing to New Jersey's Adam Hamway as a deeply alarming example of a terror-adjacent figure heading toward Congress. - The murder of Henry Noak in Britain is held up as proof that multicultural politics has turned deadly, with police, politicians, and media accused of caring more about the approved narrative than the dying victim in front of them. - Jill Biden gets hammered as shameless and corrupt, using a book tour to cash in while still denying reality, ignoring her granddaughter, and proving yet again that the Biden family puts self-interest above everything else.

What happens when an entire city becomes convinced the dead are being stolen from their graves? And what if the rumor turns out to be both wrong... and horrifyingly right? In this episode of The Box of Oddities, Kat and Jethro uncover the bizarre true story of the Wardsend Cemetery Riot of 1862, when thousands of terrified Victorians stormed a cemetery in Sheffield, England, fearing grave robbers were selling corpses to medical schools. The truth behind the scandal revealed a disturbing burial scheme, public outrage, and one of the strangest riots in British history. Then, travel from a Victorian graveyard to the freeways of Los Angeles, where a frustrated artist secretly installed his own highway sign to fix a dangerous traffic problem. For months, nobody noticed—and the unauthorized sign may have helped save lives. Was it vandalism, public service, or a brilliant act of guerrilla urban design? From resurrection men and cemetery conspiracies to stealth infrastructure and accidental civic heroism, this episode explores the strange intersection of fear, ingenuity, and the unexpected ways ordinary people can change history. The Box of Oddities is a podcast dedicated to the weird, the wonderful, and the wildly true. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
