    Scott Payne (Code Name Pale Horse, White Hot Hate) is a retired FBI Special Agent and author. Scott joins the Armchair Expert to discuss his first taste of undercover work in high school in South Carolina, how he caught the bug training as a fresh-face narcotics officer, and his long shot cold application to the FBI. Scott and Dax talk about his first undercover assignment in the Outlaws biker gang, the ins and outs of performing believable criminal activity, and navigating guilt around putting targets away whose trust he'd earned. Scott explains that the ultimate goal of undercover is accountability by building relationships you're going to betray, infiltrating an insidious and violent accelerationist white supremacist cell, and a terribly fraught encounter with a goat.Follow Armchair Expert on the Wondery App or wherever you get your podcasts.

    Retired agent Martin Reardon reviews his Unlawful Flight to Avoid Prosecution (UFAP) nationwide manhunt for a child predator wanted for the 1995 kidnapping and rape of a 9-year-old girl. Released from state prison just weeks earlier, Rickey Allen Bright had served 15 years of a life sentence for a 1979 offense involving a 6-year-old girl. Due to the heinous nature of the offense and his previous conviction, Bright was named to the FBI's Ten Most Wanted Fugitive List and featured on America's Most Wanted and Unsolved Mysteries. He was fugitive #444 and on the top ten list for three weeks. He was ultimately captured during the January 1996 East Coast blizzard just hours after America's Most Wanted aired the segment about the manhunt for the third time. After the case review, Marty also talks about his assignment as a Legal Attaché in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia and Doha, Qatar, and his post-FBI career in the Middle East.

    David Hart isn’t necessarily one of the  people you’d expect to be critical of the $7.4 billion multi-state opioid settlement reached with drug company Purdue. For 25 years, he was the assistant attorney general at the Oregon Department of Justice until his retirement last month, and he headed the department’s opioid litigation and recovery/pharmaceutical fraud unit. One way or another, he’s represented the state in opioid litigation and negotiations since 2004. But since he’s now retired, he feels an obligation to speak out about a settlement that he says is far too lenient and favorable to the Sackler family and their company, Purdue. Hart describes their behavior in igniting and fueling the opioid crisis “the worst of the worst.” He spoke with our news partner The Lund Report about his concerns and wrote an op-ed in the Oregonian/Oregonlive. He joins us to detail his concerns and how he’s making his case to the attorneys general in Oregon and the other states involved.

    The biggest threat to America today is too often the one we think about the least. Nuclear, biological, and chemical warfare has been around for decades and the effects of an NBC attack on the homeland or American interests abroad is a very real scenario. Retired Lt. Gen Leslie Smith spent a career in the Army as a Chemical Officer. He served as the Chief of the Chemical Branch and Commandant of the United States Army Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear School. He was the first Chemical officer to serve as the Commanding General of the United States Army Maneuver Support Center of Excellence and the first Chemical officer to serve as the Army's Inspector General. He is now the Vice President for Leadership and Education at the Association of United States Army.With reports looming about Russian willingness to use NBC weapons in Ukraine, and Iran's constant desire to acquire them and put them into the hands of terrorist proxies, Fran Racioppi sat down with Lt. Gen. Smith to discuss the real threat America faces. We broke down the history of America's Chemical weapons programs, their use in various stages of conflicts, the implementation of international prohibitions, how the US Army prepares for NBC threats, and what we learned about their modern day use through the COVID pandemic. Lt. Gen. Smith also shared insight into the important role the Inspector General plays in maintaining standards and accountability within the Army, as well as the role AUSA is playing in supporting soldiers both active duty and post-service.

However, once allegations of racial bias surfaced, Tracey's investigation resulted in the conviction of Mardis for a federal hate crime and a sentence of life in prison.

    There's a spirit that's sweeping across America. A growing desire for change. The system is broken. You know, we know it. And it's kind of starting to feel like everybody knows it. So when the DOGE axe was going to come down on his group of rangers, he started planning. And even though he was later protected from being fired because he was a veteran, the fear and uncertainty didn't sit with him. Retired Air Force Colonel Brian Bengs (@BrianBengs) is setting out to bring an independent voice to Washington and to protect the place he calls home. He ran before, and was urged to run as a Democrat. You'll hear how he regrets that move and how it closes doors in the states where Democrats can't win. States like South Dakota where he lives. States like Nebraska where Dan Osborn made his run at it. And in red states nationwide.  It's the second conversation in our “2025 Meet The Independent Candidates” series. And it's one you don't want to miss. It's a refreshing dose of independence and inspiration you probably need after all of the other crazy news of the last week. And we cover all of that too. Because if it's related to National Security and veterans, we've got you covered. From a chance for peace in Ukraine to Trump's absurdly corrupt new plane, the hits keep coming. And your host Paul Rieckhoff is there to cover it all—while taking you on a walk through Lower Manhattan in the rain. Including a stop the September 11th Memorial.

    Saving Money 101: Stop Wasting and Start Building Wealth

    Why Saving Money Feels Hard (And How to Make It Easy) Ever check your bank balance and think, Wait—where did all my money go?! One minute, payday hits, and the next, your hard-earned cash has vanished—eaten up by bills, surprise expenses, and everyday spending. It's like your money is playing hide and seek… and winning. But here's the good news: saving money doesn't have to feel impossible. You don't need to overhaul your lifestyle, live on instant noodles, or give up everything fun. A few smart tweaks can turn saving from a dreaded chore into something effortless—maybe even a little exciting. Let's break it down. Why an Emergency Fund is a Game-Changer Life has a knack for throwing expensive surprises your way—your car breaks down, a medical bill pops up, or your fridge decides to call it quits. Without a financial cushion, these moments can turn into full-blown crises, leaving you scrambling for a solution. That's where an emergency fund comes in. Think of it as a financial safety net. Instead of reaching for a credit card, borrowing money, or selling investments at the worst possible time, you can handle unexpected expenses stress-free. No panic, no debt—just peace of mind. How Much Should You Save? Think of your emergency fund like a financial airbag—you hope you never need it, but you'll be glad it's there. Here's a good rule of thumb: Steady paycheck? Aim for at least three months' worth of expenses. Self-employed or income varies? Six months is a safer bet. Retired? Keeping up to a year's worth of expenses in cash can help you avoid selling investments during a market downturn. And don't stress about saving it all at once. Start small, set aside what you can each month, and watch it grow. Where to Keep Your Emergency Fund Not under your mattress, that's for sure. And not in a checking account earning zero percent interest, either. The goal is to keep it safe, accessible, and ideally, earning a little something. If your expenses are in dollars, a U.S. money market fund could be a great option. Some are even insured, similar to FDIC-backed bank accounts. Unlike a regular checking account, which earns almost nothing, money market funds often provide a variable return, so be sure to check with a financial professional to understand the risks and details. If you need shekels, Israeli banks may not offer great interest on regular accounts, but some allow you to lock your money for short periods (daily, weekly, or monthly) to earn a little extra. Even a small return is better than letting your money sit idle. Beyond the Emergency Fund: Making Your Money Work for You An emergency fund is your financial safety net, but long-term security requires more than just stashing away cash. At some point, you'll want to stop working—or at least have the option to stop. Many people assume that between Social Security (U.S.), Bituach Leumi (Israel), and their pension, they'll be fine. But the reality? Those sources often fall short. To maintain your lifestyle in retirement, you need investments that grow over time. Building an Investment Portfolio Investing can feel intimidating, but it doesn't have to be complicated. A broad, diversified portfolio—such as an index fund tracking the S&P 500—can be a straightforward way to grow wealth over time. Others prefer a mix of stocks, bonds, or managed portfolios tailored to their goals and risk tolerance. The key is consistency. Even small contributions, made regularly, can grow significantly over time. And while markets fluctuate, history suggests that long-term investors tend to fare better than those who sit on the sidelines. Important note: Investing involves risk, and past performance does not guarantee future results. Always consult a licensed financial advisor to determine what strategy makes sense for your situation. Plugging the Financial Leaks: Where is Your Money Going? You might think you have your spending under control, but when you actually track where your money is going, the results can be surprising. Many people waste thousands each year without realizing it—on subscriptions they don't use, high-fee services, and impulse spending. A quick self-check: Are you paying for things you don't actually use (streaming services, gym memberships, premium banking fees)? Do you regularly eat out or order takeout but can't seem to save for bigger goals? Are you overspending on insurance or other recurring expenses without shopping around for better rates? You don't have to cut everything fun out of your life—you just need to be intentional about where your money goes. A simple spending review can help you redirect money from waste to wealth-building. The Secret to Saving More Without Thinking About It One of the easiest ways to build wealth? Automate your savings. Set up an automatic transfer so that every month, a portion of your paycheck goes straight into savings before you have a chance to spend it. You can do this with your emergency fund, investment accounts, or even a retirement account. The less you have to think about saving, the more likely you are to actually do it. Over time, those small amounts add up in a big way. Small Changes, Big Impact Financial security isn't about being rich—it's about being prepared. An emergency fund gives you the freedom to handle life's unexpected expenses without stress, turning financial shocks into minor inconveniences. Investing wisely allows your money to grow over time, so you're not just stashing cash but actually building long-term wealth. At the same time, cutting out unnecessary expenses doesn't mean giving up what you love—it means making sure your money is working toward what truly matters. The easiest way to stay on track? Automate your savings. When saving happens in the background, it becomes effortless—and over time, those small, consistent contributions can add up to real financial security.

    In this episode, listeners gain valuable insights into the three key changes that consistently lead to a fulfilling retirement before age 60. Drawing from years of experience working with retirees, host Adam Olson highlights how these pivotal shifts go beyond financial preparation, focusing on purpose, vision, and legacy. With examples from real client stories, listeners will discover the importance of retiring to something meaningful rather than merely retiring from the workforce. Key takeaways from this episode include: • The danger of focusing solely on savings without a clear purpose or lifestyle strategy. • How planning early can avoid common pitfalls like high taxes, Medicare premium increases, and market volatility. • The transformative power of creating a comprehensive retirement strategy that aligns with personal values, generates lifetime income, and ensures a lasting legacy. Adam shares a success story of a couple who, through structured retirement planning, achieved more income in retirement than during their working years. Their journey highlights how thoughtful adjustments—such as Roth conversions and legacy-focused accounts—can lead to financial security and peace of mind.

    Today on the Matt Walsh Show, this will sound like a rerun. A guy committed cold-blooded murder, and now the social media mob is rallying around him. In this case, the victim was a retired police officer. This is the third killer in the past few months to find a cheering section on social media. What the hell is going on? Also, Trump delivers a perfect response to the totally fake “AI Pope Trump” controversy. And the state of Virginia passes a law restricting social media use for kids. I'm told this is a slippery slope and "government overreach." I'm not persuaded. Click here to join the member-exclusive portion of my show: https://bit.ly/4bEQDy6 Ep.1590 - - - DailyWire+: Our friend and colleague Andrew Klavan has a brand-new book out, and it's a must-read.
