“State of Flux” 30th-anniversary reflections A scouting expedition to an alien planet leads to a game-changing discovery. Surprisingly, it's not leola root. Nor is it mushrooms; though these are all pretty tasty finds. Even the Kazon can't lay claim to the title, despite turning out to have Starfleet technology aboard their ship. But we're getting warmer. How did the Kazon get their hands on the tech? It looks like the Voyager crew have a traitor in their midst. As Janeway, Chakotay, and Tuvok set out to solve the Case of the Cream of Mushroom, the trail leads them to a shocking revelation. In this episode of To The Journey, hosts C Bryan Jones and Matthew Rushing continue our 30th-anniversary retrospective that will take you through all of Star Trek: Voyager, one episode at a time. In this installment, we discuss “State of Flux,” Seska's big secret, how the story questions Starfleet ideals, and why establishing characters before plot twists matters.

The wish came true.Now the consequences begin.Natalie Primavera is trapped in a hospital bed, her body broken, her future uncertain — while her mind is stuck inside Ava Ross, a dancer who was never supposed to be good enough for the spotlight.Ava, meanwhile, is living inside Natalie's perfect body… and discovering that perfection is a prison with great lighting.As Nutcracker rehearsals intensify, the magic destabilizes. Roles are threatened. Loyalties fracture. The Sugar Plum Fairy becomes a battleground. And the line between ambition and identity starts to blur.Friendships turn sharp. Parents get complicated. Romance gets messy. And a Romanian ballet master with secrets of his own begins pushing both girls toward a reckoning neither of them is ready for.Act Two is where the comedy deepens, the stakes rise, and the story stops being about switching bodies — and starts being about who deserves the life they're fighting for.Because wanting something badly doesn't mean you understand the cost.It's still funny.It's still chaotic.But now it hurts in the best way.Written by award-winning writer Jenna St. John.Starring: Kensington Tallman as Natalie Primavera Logan Laurel as Ava Ross Konstantin Lavysh as Mr. Constantine Carson Bolde as Grayson Garcia Sasha Knight as Trevor Rita Dos Santos as Kenzie Samantha A.

BT & Sal dive into a discussion about changing fan loyalties, with Sal questioning his nephew's allegiance to the Rangers despite wearing a Devils jersey, and BT revealing a potential family tie to a Devils star that might force him to convert. The main event is the Week 14 Perfect Parlay, where the pressure is on: Hof dials back to a three-team parlay despite a tight race, BT wiggles back into contention with a conservative two-team play, and Sal takes a four-team, 100-point shot to catch up, trusting his Colts "due" theory to snap a 10-game losing streak in Jacksonville. The show concludes with a wild detour into Vegas gambling stories, covering the agony of the "Blackjack Table Bullies," the self-shame of ATM withdrawals, BT's $160,000 side-bet near-miss, and Sal's theory that you play to win, not to have fun. Finally, they give their Players to Watch for the week: Josh Allen and Sam Darnold.

In this episode of The Wright Report, Bryan covers the Pentagon's new Inspector General findings on Secretary of War Pete Hegseth's use of the Signal app, Eric Swalwell's push for voting by phone, new revelations about how the Afghan terrorist in Washington was radicalized, a Senate bill that would end dual citizenship, and promising research on depression and mental health. Pentagon IG Clears Hegseth of Wrongdoing: The Inspector General found that senior Trump officials violated protocol by discussing Yemen strike operations on the Signal app, but that Hegseth had legal authority to declassify what he shared. The report warns that using personal devices creates risk, although no adversary appears to have intercepted the information. Bryan describes the episode as sloppy tradecraft that prompted the administration to tighten internal communications procedures. Swalwell Pushes Voting by Phone: California Democrat Eric Swalwell is proposing phone-based voting, insisting it can be secure. Bryan counters with his CIA experience, explaining that any phone-based voting system would be a prime target for foreign intelligence services. He argues that electronic voting in any form creates undetectable vulnerabilities that nations like China and Russia would exploit. How the Afghan Terrorist Was Radicalized: New reporting shows that Rahmanullah Lakanwal told his wife he was meeting with members of the Tablighi Jamaat, a Deobandi revivalist movement with a long history of extremism. The group has terror cells in parts of the United States, and Lakanwal previously assisted the CIA in killing their members overseas. Bryan explains why investigators are now trying to determine whether cells in Phoenix, San Diego, Chicago, Indianapolis, or on the East Coast are connected to the attack. Senator Proposes Ending Dual Citizenship: Ohio Senator Bernie Moreno introduced a bill requiring Americans to hold only United States citizenship. He argues that dual allegiance creates legal and security conflicts and says becoming an American should be an all-or-nothing commitment. Bryan encourages listeners who support the idea to contact their senators and weigh in. Mental Health Research Offers Hope: Studies show that taking a weeklong break from social media reduces depression and insomnia. British researchers also found that nitrous oxide treatments can rapidly improve severe depression when other therapies fail, and exercise and time in nature remain highly effective for anxiety and mood disorders.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: Pentagon IG report, Signal app, Pete Hegseth declassification authority, Eric Swalwell voting by phone, NSA hacking risks electronic voting, Rahmanullah Lakanwal Tablighi Jamaat radicalization, dual citizenship, Exclusive Citizenship Act, depression research nitrous oxide, social media break mental health

Many people latch onto the idea that Jeffrey Epstein was simply a Mossad asset, but that narrow framing ignores the vast, tangled reality of how he operated. Epstein absolutely interacted with Israeli intelligence at times, but he was far from a one-nation operative. The emails, correspondence, and contacts that have surfaced reveal a man functioning as a geopolitical free agent—someone who cultivated influence with the British Royal Family, served as a broker between Russia and Western power players, embedded himself in Wall Street and academia, and navigated U.S. political circles with ease. His value came from his ambiguity. He was a dealer of access, leverage, and kompromat who aligned himself with any faction—American, British, Russian, Israeli, or otherwise—that furthered his personal agenda. Viewing Epstein as a single-country asset grossly oversimplifies a transnational operation that spanned governments, intelligence networks, and private power structures.The fixation on Mossad serves as a distraction that conveniently shields the many other institutions and elites who benefitted from Epstein's activities. Reducing his network to a single foreign intelligence service allows U.S. political figures, European royalty, Wall Street executives, global banks, and academic power centers to slide out of the frame. It masks the deeper truth that Epstein was part of a multinational ecosystem of private influence that operated parallel to, and often above, governments. His power came from the kompromat he accumulated across continents, the secrets he mediated, and the access he controlled—making him dangerous not because he served one nation, but because he served himself. Simplifying him to a Mossad agent is not only inaccurate; it protects the sprawling network of global power players who enabled him and had every incentive to silence him before the full truth emerged.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Time and time again, God shows that he is faithful. And because He is faithful, we are able to believe in the promises that He makes. But, it is important to remember that God's promises are always part of His covenant -- that He will be their God. In our story today from Genesis 22, God asks for Abraham's trust by commanding Abraham to sacrifice his promised son, Isaac. And as the story plays out, we come to learn that God was testing Abraham's loyalty to him (and, we come to learn that God is the one who provides for what he requires). In today's message, Pastor Cheryl encourages us to identify our own loyalties to try to understand where we may be placing our trust in something other than God.

TRIGGER WARNING: The end of this pod covers details of a sexual assault allegation with disturbing language pulled directly from a public police report. That topic lasts from 1:03:05-1:21:51. The second half of a two-part Broligarchy Roast concludes with reviewing an anti-anti-fascist Executive Order, a recently deleted study on the reality of domestic terrorism, and fun with HB1 Visas. Additionally, a look at FBI firings, investigations, lawsuits, and the children's book author at its helm. As the DOJ works to address Presidential beefs, we dig into Comey's indictment and the raid of a former advisor before closing with a dive into the new Department of War treehouse.

Jon Herold and Zak “RedPill78” Paine dig deep into Benjamin Netanyahu's shadowy past and the controversies that follow him into the present. From questions about dual citizenship, multiple Social Security identities, and confidential U.S. files to corruption trials and backroom deals, they trace how Netanyahu's rise was anything but ordinary. The discussion links his father's revisionist Zionism, the Entebbe raid, and the weapons of mass destruction narrative to modern scandals of bribery, media manipulation, and questionable alliances. The hosts connect these threads to the October 7th attacks, Netanyahu's grip on power, and the explosive whispers surrounding Charlie Kirk's assassination, asking whether Israel's doctrine of Din Rodef could justify silencing critics. With sharp commentary on 9/11 foreknowledge, U.S.-Israel ties, and the manipulation of trauma events, this episode pulls no punches in exposing how darkness is often woven into design.

Speaker | Dr. Jim Bradford JEREMIAH: About our Loyalties Sunday September 14, 2025 Sermon Slides | YouVersion

In Luke 14:25–33, Jesus challenges the crowds—and us—with stark words about discipleship: “Whoever does not carry the cross and follow me cannot be my disciple.” What does it mean to “hate” family, give up possessions, and count the cost? In this sermon, Rev. Dr. Jason Storbakken explores the cultural context of Jesus' radical call, the danger of finding identity in politics, possessions, or social status, and the invitation to reorder our lives through the costly yet life-giving way of the cross.

Afghanistan has long been called the “graveyard of empires.” Powerful nations have marched into its mountains with plans to conquer and reform it. They built schools, sent aid, and installed new governments. For a time, the changes seemed to work. Yet each empire—British, Soviet, American—eventually left defeated. Afghanistan absorbed their energy, took what it needed, and when the invaders left, the country reverted to what it had always been.This happens because Afghanistan is built on deep-rooted inertia and entropy. Inertia means it stays the same unless acted on by massive force. Entropy means that new systems fall apart unless energy is constantly applied. Foreign powers pour in energy, but Afghanistan outlasts them. When they tire, their reforms collapse. Afghanistan remains.America works the same way, but with movements instead of armies. Movements arrive like cultural invaders. They come with slogans, protests, policies, and demands. They intend to reshape the country. And for a moment, they seem to succeed. Corporations join in. Schools rewrite programs. Politicians pass laws. The country mirrors the movement's ideals. Those who play along benefit—money, status, approval.But this compliance is tactical, not permanent. Like Afghanistan pandering to foreign powers, America gives movements everything they ask for. It lets them win visible victories. It drains their energy. When the movement's force burns out, America disperses what's left and rolls back the changes. The culture returns to its old state.Afghanistan's resistance comes from its tribal nature. Loyalties are local, not national. Foreigners misunderstand this and fail to control it. America's resistance comes from its own version of tribalism. It is a federation by name, but states and regions behave like independent clans. Rural and urban cultures mistrust each other. The South distrusts the coasts. Local identities overpower national unity. Movements trying to impose sweeping reform run into this wall of local resistance. On the surface, people comply. Underneath, they hold to their way of life and wait for the storm to pass.Afghanistan's strategy is patience. It pretends to comply, takes foreign aid, and waits for the invader to weaken. America does the same with movements. Civil Rights, affirmative action, voting rights, Occupy Wall Street, Black Lives Matter, DEI, COVID lockdowns, climate change initiatives, and now Free Palestine—all have followed the same pattern. They arrive with force. America appears to transform. Then energy fades. The reforms weaken. The old patterns return.This is not hate. It is cultural physics. Inertia keeps the country tied to what it knows. Entropy erodes new structures unless they are constantly reinforced. When energy is gone, rollback begins.Afghanistan is a black hole for foreign empires. They pour in power, wealth, and ideals, only to be swallowed. America is a black hole for social movements. It swallows their energy, their victories, their slogans. The reforms scatter into its vast social fabric until nothing is left. The movement dies, but the country remains.Afghanistan waits out armies. America waits out movements. Both drain what tries to change them. Both give everything demanded during occupation only to undo it later. Both survive by being patient, by letting outsiders or reformers burn themselves out.Afghanistan is the graveyard of empires.America is the graveyard of movements.Both absorb, endure, and remain unchanged at their core.

Hayley and J Scotty are back for another double dose of Silo Season 2 as the season nears the finish line with Episodes 7 & 8. Loyalties are tested on all sides as more secrets and questions are revealed.

Episode 348: This is part 2 of our coverage of the Gay Purge in Canada. Last week, we uncovered the origins of the Canadian government's purge of gays and queer folk, a campaign that began in the early years of the Cold War.  This week, we take a chilling dive into one of the government's most sinister methods—the Fruit Machine. This pseudoscientific device was meant to expose gay individuals through invasive tests, and how the RCMP and military's attempted Purge of gays from civil service continued unabated all the way through to the 1990s.

Episode 347: In this episode, part one of two, thanks to Mathew's intrepid and unflinching research, we're peeling back the layers on one of the most harrowing chapters in Canadian history: the Gay Purge.  Officially, the campaign targeted LGBTQ+ individuals as part of a national security effort—citing their supposed susceptibility to blackmail by Soviet agents - But the real story is that these purges were driven more by institutional homophobia cloaked in Cold War fears and rhetoric than by legitimate security concerns. The blackmail excuse became a convenient cover for the government's systemic discrimination, allowing a deeply entrenched homophobia to flourish unchecked. This campaign stretched from the 1950s through to the 1990s, destroying lives, careers, and communities along the way. We'll explore the origins of this agenda, how it escalated, and look at a few of the stories of individuals affected. Sources: Peyton V. Lyon, The Loyalties of E.
