IPS DEPROGRAM "Separating Psyops from Reality"a framework for understanding current events as a coordinated psychological operation (PSYOP) designed to create a parallel, fictional reality. This operation relies on a continuous programming timeline comprising elements such as predictive programming in entertainment, concurrent programming during the event, and reinforcement programming afterward. For instance, the recent Charlie Kirk incident is analyzed as evidence, detailing how a corresponding South Park episode served as a propaganda vector by containing highly specific, pre-staged nuances of the event. The speaker also strongly criticizes the alternative media landscape, arguing that these "truthers" are controlled opposition who rely on occultist and logically flawed methods, like gematria, rather than skeptical analysis of media fakery. The speaker emphasizes that these major news stories should be recognized not as hoaxes, but as staged historically significant events. The goal is to establish a new, separate platform that embraces an off-world stage perspective outside of the dominant media duopoly.• The speaker asserts that the recent Charlie Kirk event and shooting was a staged, historically significant event, evidenced by its close resemblance to details in South Park episode 330. Specific overlaps include the Kirk-esque character, the timing, the conversation context (gender), the appearance of the questioner/crisis actor, and the character being knocked off the chair to the left.• Alternative media (alt media) is harshly criticized for being "controlled opposition" and a "conspiracy against conspiracy theorists". Alt media channels are faulted for treating staged events as "organic with a secondary culprit," failing to entertain the idea that the events are entirely manufactured.• A major challenge for individuals caught in mainstream and alternative media narratives ("Trutherville") is the ego, preventing them from admitting they have been wrong or duped a second time. Both types of media function as a "religion" for their consumers, relying on low information, faith-based belief systems rather than rigorous critical analysis.• The speaker rejects the use of Gematria (numerical decoding) by groups like "Christian decoders," arguing that this practice is logically fallacious (specifically the Texas sharpshooter fallacy) and constitutes a form of occultism. These decoders add "noise" to the signal by attributing staged manipulation by man to something mystical, thereby functioning as disinformation.Key Quotes1. "We have to maintain a continuity here."2. "South Park's like the new Simpsons when it comes to predictive programming."3. "So what I'm pointing out here is that you can now look at this stuff as on a timeline. It's predictive programming, becomes concurrent programming, the day of, and then everything that follows is reinforcement programming because they just reinforce the official view."4. "Alt media is a huge hoax. Alt media is a conspiracy against conspiracy theorists."5. "The way to see through it isn't to look closer at the screen, but it's to take a different perspective."

Chuck Todd unpacks a seismic moment in Republican politics: Marjorie Taylor-Greene’s break from Donald Trump and her abrupt resignation from Congress. He traces how the split—months in the making—reveals deep fractures inside the “America First” movement, with MTG positioning herself as the true-believer successor to the Bannon wing while accusing both parties of fueling a self-serving “political industrial complex.” Chuck explains why her departure signals growing disillusionment among Trump’s base, how job displacement and economic anxiety are reshaping the electorate, and why MTG’s political instincts make her far more formidable than her critics admit. Then he turns to new confusion surrounding the administration’s Ukraine peace proposal—where even Republicans like Marco Rubio appear uneasy—and how Trump’s handling of Venezuela risks alienating Latin American partners and setting U.S. diplomacy back decades. Then, author Wright Thompson joins Chuck Todd to discuss his new book The Barn and the enduring struggle to tell the stories of civil rights in America. Wright delves into the history of Emmett Till, the ongoing battle over how Black history is taught in the South, and the limitations of projects like 1619 in capturing the full scope of systemic racism. He reflects on how the South’s “lost cause” imagery and historical amnesia continue to shape politics, culture, and education, and why remembering Till’s story is essential for understanding the roots of American dysfunction. Along the way, Wright also explores how sports have historically led society in moral leadership, from civil rights breakthroughs to the integrity of figures like LeBron James. Thompson also tackles broader questions about American governance and society, from the failures of individual politicians to the structural incentives that keep the country in political spirals, the challenges of the modern presidency, and the looming threats of drone warfare and algorithm-driven polarization. He offers insights from his journey as a sportswriter, illustrating how cultural narratives—from the 1940s to today—shape our national conversation. This episode is a deep dive into history, morality, and the complexities of chronicling America’s past while grappling with its present and future. Finally, Chuck hops into the ToddCast Time Machine to revisit the year America had TWO Thanksgivings, answers listeners’ questions in the “Ask Chuck” segment and recaps the weekend in college football.

UNAUTHORIZED REPRODUCTION OR DISTRIBUTION IS STRICTLY PROHIBITED BY LAW. INFRIGMENT IS PUNSHABLE BY FEDERAL LAW LEGAL NOTICE / ARTIST STATEMENT Project: The Festival Project ™ (Season 12) Genre: Speculative Auto-Ethnography / Social Surrealism Disclaimer: This document is a work of creative non-fiction and political satire. While inspired by the author's lived experiences with systemic oppression, housing displacement, and surveillance, the narrative employs stylized fragmentation, stream-of-consciousness, and metaphor to dramatize the psychological impact of these events. The "characters" and "dialogue" herein are artistic devices used to critique historical and modern power structures. This text should be viewed as a performative artistic expression protected under the First Amendment, and not as a literal transcript of clinical psychosis or a formal sworn affidavit. This is a character study of 'Chroma111,' the collective artworks of a musician living in a dystopian surveillance state. The erratic language is a stylistic choice to represent the character's psychological deterioration under systemic oppression. All characters appearing in this work are fictitious. Any resemblance to real persons, living or dead, is purely coincidental. The Genre: "Afro-Surrealism" / "Social Horror" "Psycho-Acoustic Weaponry" or "Havana Syndrome symptoms." The Frame: The protagonist is subjected to "noise harassment"—a tactic dramatized here but rooted in the known reality of tenant displacement and "psychological attrition." The narrative depicts a process of "Soul Murder" ( also known as spiritual warfare) orchestrated by a hostile apparatus. The antagonist is "The Institution," representing deep-state mechanisms that view multicultural intellectualism as a threat. The story allegorically dramatizes the invisible mechanisms that enforce racial hierarchy, depicting how broken social systems weaponize psychological practices against the individual. Artist's Note: This is a living document. In the event of the artist's silence or unnatural death, this text serves as an artistic testament to the psychological siege endured from to 2023-2025. It is a creative record of survival against a hostile state architecture. The following is a creative non-fiction horror manifesto regarding the psychological assassination of a multicultural American artist. It documents—through the lens of Afro-Surrealism—how modern surveillance technology and sonic harassment are experienced by the targeted individual. As it stands It has become a modern sequel which mirrors the civil rights struggles of the 1960s, set in the present day. "The protagonist is being subjected to 'noise harassment'—a known tactic used by landlords and corrupt entities to displace tenants. The sound is weaponized to induce sleep deprivation and psychological attrition, dismantling of their ego and will to live, orchestrated by a hostile state apparatus. The antagonist in this piece is 'The Institution'—a deep state that views multicultural intellectualism as a threat. The story dramatizes over time the invisible mechanisms (the 'Deep State') that enforce racial hierarchy and and psychological genocide, weaponizing broken social systems and unfounded psychological practices as biological weapons. This is a living document. In the event of the artist's silence or unnatural death, this text serves as evidence of the psychological siege endured from 2023-2025. It is a transcript of survival against a hostile state architecture. This project spans an unlimited multiprojectoral arc of over two years of chronic violence, reaching into historical and theatrical projections and parallels over the all documented records of human existence through time and space.

I won't Good good Goddamn I might have a heart attack I might have to kill myself I hate this place I'm tired now I dropped my hat . I'm an individual Stuck in a simulated and subject collective consciousness I'll tel you where the problem is I promise this It seemed more like a tactical marketing strategy than an actual accident, knowing the type of superstar Sonny had become. Yet, I couldn't help but give it a second thought, almost admiring it—whatever it was—as there is no such thing as bad press. As it all played out over social media—which I obstinately rejected, but however so embraced by those in what one used to call "the arts"—it felt undone; It was now strictly business within those very same markets. Here was this, an apparent plagiarism based on ‘outsourcing' a simple photo for a follow-up single to an album I knew I could not be moved to listen to, even after months. I had spent my own time, in a torturous chaos sense, researching these sorts of psychological tactics and strategies of such conglomerates. It seemed almost as if the negative and seemingly coincidental exposure was in congruency with the so very Skrillexian need to stay relevant to the newer age in changing times. He seemed to embrace some sort of artistic evolution, at least from what I could sense at a long and strong distance. However, my ability to understand the article I'd very much by accident stumbled upon—while overlooking my own dilapidated ticket stubs on Resident Advisor—cautioned at the kind of humbled and grown logic that had become what was left of my womanhood. I had in so many ways made a fool of myself, an embarrassment for what I thought of at the time in the name of love. Still, in all this time, I was so desolated and alone that it had become such an apparent and distraught sense of waking up to what formerly was. With this, I thought one of two things. I knew this Sonny, like most men of prestige, power, and great wealth, had devised his team of sharp-witted, intelligent, beautiful women. This apparent slip-up over the artwork for his latest endeavor—which I had, for every reason, protested in defense of my own dignity—was perhaps the result of a beautiful woman without creative ingenuity stealing the artwork in bad taste, as evidenced. Or—even more cunning—this was the wit of a trained and marginalized soldier in the art of programming. The apparent plagiarism was, in fact, another brutal and hollow Skrillefied market for attention. Over the last decade, he had no shortage of the ability to create and draw eyes to whatever art or concept was forced out of the mechanized monster. Still, there was a sharp growl. I knew I was meant to find this as a reminder of what I'd find if I looked any further or listened to his music anymore: a rise in sharp numbers, mass appeal tactics, and this-or-that shallow hogwash of distinctly skeletal bodies and avant-garde aesthetics. It pointed at the unachievable from my eyes and standpoint. It was the rockstar air and attire of everything I wasn't: strictly thin Hollywood or other ideals to which the construct was entitled, but I wasn't. I had to set out on my own way because what I had intended with music was jumbled into appearances, pornographic sexualities, and masculine dominance. It meant I had aged out of the desirability and affect these very same masses were being marketed from. Sure, I understood that the Skrillex project had established a sort of order for what the electronic festival industry wanted. But I also wanted something else accomplished in my time that wasn't just being some shallow, hot-girl, obscure go-after. The entire time, I had been under the impression of a duality of magnetism I often still had difficulty loosening myself from—that this illusion of an emotional tie or loveness, outside of what was a physical or illustrious concept, had no substance within the business at its core. It was, to say the least, a heartless world and a heartless business. Now that my own music was without purpose, I could forever distance myself from the other masses—the consumer-prosumer-commercialized "artists" that had sprung up out of access to the direct-to-streaming music market via technology and disposable funding. I had no way of embodying my mind to do away with the parts of me that needed to change to become one of them—in the sense that if my music looked and sounded alike, I would be embraced. But I was far from being the type of consciousness that had formed seemingly with the twist of a knob or an Ableton shortcut by one of electronic's founding fathers. In an unfortunate way, I had finally realized he was just that. — Death of A Superstar DJ. Copyright © The Complex Collective 2025 The Festival Project, Inc. ™ All rights reserved. Chroma111.

The House vote to release the Epstein files passes, now headed for the Senate. Some early bad news for Democrats, Hakeem Jeffries' campaign actually asked Epstein for money after they knew he was a convicted sex offender. Even worse, Democrat Stacey Plaskett was texting and seeking advice from Epstein as late as 2019 in regards to former Trump attorney Michael Cohen. Jessica Reed Kraus, the brilliant mind behind mega successful substack House In Habit has thoroughly documented the Epstein case. Kraus was present during the trial of Ghislaine Maxwell and came to a very different conclusion than the mainstream media narrative. The Epstein timeline is messy and the facts surrounding the case are even messier. One truth the media refuses to tell is how some of the Epstein 'victims' were actually the ones grooming young women. The Epstein Victims Fund has also been allegedly taken advantage of in the way funds are allocated. One thing that is conclusive is that Alan Dershowitz was innocent and had the receipts to prove it. You don't want to miss this fascinating conversation on Epstein that the media simply won't tell you. Jessica has been team Bobby Kennedy from day one and is here to update us on MAHA. Bobby has notched up some big wins already as the champion of America's health and wellness.

Week 11 has wrapped up and it provided some thrilling finishes for a couple of Top 10 teams. Penn State brought #2 Indiana down to the wire. The undefeated Hoosiers may have suffered their first loss if not for a heroic final drive from Fernando Mendoza. The drive culminated in an unbelievable catch by Omar Cooper Jr., who barely kept his foot in, to score the eventual game winning touchdown with 36 seconds left. Andy Staples, Ross Dellenger and Steven Godfrey discuss if such a close game to a struggling Penn State team should create any room for concern with this Indiana team. Then they dive into the other matchup that came down to the final seconds. This one was a Top 20 matchup in the pouring rain between #9 Oregon and #20 Iowa. The home-team Hawkeyes took the lead late. That set the stage for an impressive final drive by Dante Moore and Oregon to kick a game-winning field goal with three seconds remaining. The guys discuss how they feel about Oregon coming off of this win. They also discuss #8 Texas Tech's dominant win over #7 BYU. How do they feel about the Red Raiders going forward? Plus, is there a legitimate chance the ACC could end up with no teams in the College Football Playoff?Later, Ross reports big news coming out of the Big Ten as their discussion about private equity appears to be nearing a decision. Michigan and USC remain steadfast in their opposition to any deal, but a vote is scheduled for November 21st. If Michigan or USC decide not to sign, the rest of the schools in the Big Ten will move along on the deal without them. What could this mean for the future of not only Michigan, but the entirety of the college football landscape? The guys discuss how this could all potentially play out.Then, they look to Week 12. The final few weeks of the regular season are inching closer, which means each game begins to add a little more pressure. The guys look at games that have huge impacts on both conference and playoff races. #11 Texas visits #5 Georgia, #12 Oklahoma plays #4 Alabama and #10 Notre Dame faces off with #24 Pittsburgh. How could we see the playoff race change after Week 12?The guys discuss all of this and more on today's College Football Enquirer.(1:13) - #2 Indiana survives at Penn State(8:24) - Could the ACC miss the playoff?(15:41) - #9 Oregon survives in Iowa(21:50) - Wisconsin upsets #23 Washington(25:26) - #8 Texas Tech dominates #7 BYU(32:16) - Big Ten moving forward with private equity?(52:47) - Week 12 games with Playoff implications  Subscribe to the College Football Enquirer on your favorite podcast app:

Click here to try it out!In this episode, we wade into Chinatown — a sun-bleached noir where water is power, everyone's lying, and the system wins. We talk Jack Nicholson's bandaged nose, Faye Dunaway's glass-shard fragility, John Huston's all-time villainy, and that ending that still guts you. Yes, we address the director caveat up front; then we focus on what's on screen: A precision-engineered thriller that never wastes a line, a clue, or a cut.What we coverWhy “Chinatown”? The title's bleak punchline and what “forget it” really means in a city built on corruption.Follow the water: Droughts, land grabs, cooked records, and a murder that only makes sense when you trace the pipes.Noir done right: Goldsmith's moody trumpet score, razor tailoring, art-deco menace, and how every tiny detail pays off.Iconic moments: The nose slice (cameo alert), the “my sister/my daughter” reveal, and the slow-motion horror of the finale.Performances: Nicholson's cocky PI unravelled, Dunaway's haunted elegance, Huston's monstrous calm.The ethics disclaimer: Separating a notorious off-screen history from on-screen craft — and why that discomfort belongs in the conversation.Context chats: How the screenplay became a template, the year it ran into The Godfather Part II, and why the ending had to be that ending.Should you watch it?If you like your mysteries tidy and comforting, this isn't that. If you want clockwork plotting, glorious craft, and a finish that lingers… it's essential. We're candid, a bit feral, and very fun about it.“Every throwaway line is a breadcrumb. By the time you see the trail, it's already too late.”

We've lived through technology revolutions before. Personal computers. The Internet. Smartphones. Social media. Each felt transformative at the time, reshaping how we work and communicate. But something fundamentally different is happening now. AI learns from every interaction and improves with each release. Yet the signals are confusing. Some pilots are failing, and the hype levels are off the scale. Meanwhile, some companies are reporting the potential for hundreds of millions in savings, capability benchmarks are doubling every seven months, and entire organizational structures are being reimagined around human-AI collaboration. So how do employers cut through the noise and prepare for such a fundamental shift? My guest this week is Michael Tchong, a futurist and founder of Ubertrends Academy. In our conversation, Michael explains what makes this revolution different, how to spot true long-term trends beyond the hype, and shares practical strategies for navigating the transformation ahead. In the interview, we discuss: Are we prepared for the coming disruption? Signals and Uber trends Why AI is unlike past revolutions Separating the hype from the real transformation signals Early adopters versus mainstream users Building hybrid human-AI organizations The coming wave of job displacement Practical upskilling strategies you need to implement Follow this podcast on Apple Podcasts.
