In this week's FOLLOW UP, Bitcoin is down 15%, miners are unplugging rigs because paying eighty-seven grand to mine a sixty-grand coin finally failed the vibes check, and Grok is still digitally undressing men—suggesting Musk's “safeguards” remain mostly theoretical, which didn't help when X offices got raided in France. Spain wants to ban social media for kids under 16, Egypt is blocking Roblox outright, and governments everywhere are flailing at the algorithmic abyss.IN THE NEWS, Elon Musk is rolling xAI into SpaceX to birth a $1.25 trillion megacorp that wants to power AI from orbit with a million satellites, because space junk apparently wasn't annoying enough. Amazon admits a “high volume” of CSAM showed up in its AI training data and blames third parties, Waymo bags a massive $16 billion to insist robotaxis are working, Pinterest reportedly fires staff who built a layoff-tracking tool, and Sam Altman gets extremely cranky about Claude's Super Bowl ads hitting a little too close to home.For MEDIA CANDY, we've got Shrinking, the Grammys, Star Trek: Starfleet Academy's questionable holographic future, Neil Young gifting his catalog to Greenland while snubbing Amazon, plus Is It Cake? Valentines and The Rip.In APPS & DOODADS, we test Sennheiser earbuds, mess with Topaz Video, skip a deeply cursed Python script that checks LinkedIn for Epstein connections, and note that autonomous cars and drones will happily obey prompt injection via road signs—defeated by a Sharpie.IN THE LIBRARY, there's The Regicide Report, a brutal study finding early dementia signals in Terry Pratchett's novels, Neil Gaiman denying allegations while announcing a new book, and THE DARK SIDE WITH DAVE, vibing with The Muppet Show as Disney names a new CEO. We round it out with RentAHuman.ai dread relief via paper airplane databases, free Roller Coaster Tycoon, and Sir Ian McKellen on Colbert—still classy in the digital wasteland.Sponsors:DeleteMe - Get 20% off your DeleteMe plan when you go to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use promo code GOG at checkout.SquareSpace - go to squarespace.com/GRUMPY for a free trial.

1910 CARTHAGE1.Jeff Bliss reports on allegations that Mayor Bass altered an after-action report regarding the Pacific Palisades fire to hide resource deployment failures during the disaster response in Los Angeles.2.Jeff Bliss notes Governor Newsom promotes high-speed rail despite a nearby fire and no track laid, while facing skepticism about his presidential potential and California's ongoing infrastructure struggles.3.Gene Marks discusses high small business confidence, the resilience of plumbing trades, and how new AI agents from Anthropic are rendering traditional software coding obsolete in the tech industry.4.Gene Marks warns administrative roles face AI threats while employers prioritize AI literacy, advising businesses to update Google profiles to avoid losing significant annual revenue from outdated listings.5.Henry Sokolski of the Nonproliferation Policy Education Center warns of heightened risks as the New START treaty expires without replacement, citing unchecked Russian and Chinese weapons and debates over resuming nuclear testing.6.Henry Sokolski notes amidst expired treaties, the US reintroduces extended deterrence language and recommits to the NPT, though non-proliferation enforcement remains inconsistent and challenging against determined adversaries.7.Richard Epstein of the Hoover Institution argues the proposed retroactive billionaire wealth tax is unconstitutional, economically damaging, and likely to drive wealth out of California despite strong union support.8.Richard Epstein suggests intense political polarization explains why scandals like the Epstein files or Trump'scontroversies deepen divides rather than ending careers, normalizing political deviance across the spectrum.9.Professor Eve McDonald explains how Hannibal, emulating the myth of Hercules, daringly marched elephants and troops across the treacherous Alps to surprise Rome with an invasion of Italy.10.Professor Eve McDonald describes how Hannibal utilizes superior cavalry and terrain to encircle and annihilate a larger Roman force at Cannae, though he lacks the manpower to subsequently take Rome.11.Professor Eve McDonald recounts how young Scipio Africanus adopts Hannibal's tactics, conquering Spain and invading Africa to force Hannibal's return and final defeat at the Battle of Zama.12.Professor Eve McDonald concludes that after a brutal siege and total destruction in 146 BC, Carthage is eventually refounded by Augustus, becoming a vital Roman city and Christian center.13.Lorenzo Fiori reports on the opening ceremony excitement, improved snow conditions in the Alps, and Prime Minister Meloni's strong leadership presence at the Milan Winter Olympics.14.Jim McTague notes steady but quiet business activity in Lancaster, describes local approval for a new data center, and reports on overlooked global cod shortages affecting seafood markets.15.Bob Zimmerman of Behind the Black discusses Axiom's upcoming ISS missions, various European startups, and critiques crony capitalism regarding government subsidies for Starlink's rural internet access.16.Bob Zimmerman details findings of water and organics on an interstellar comet, discusses the unknowns of space reproduction, and dismisses sensationalism regarding Jupiter's diameter measurements in recent headlines.

Join Jim and Greg for the Friday 3 Martini Lunch as they react to Virginia Democrats' aggressive gerrymandering of congressional districts, Russia's escalating mischief online and in space, and New Jersey Democrats once again showing how far the party continues to lurch to the left.First, they unload on Virginia Democrats for transforming a fairly competitive state into a convoluted congressional map that could give Democrats control of ten of the state's eleven House seats. Jim and Greg walk through the most absurd district lines and skewer the flimsy explanations Democrats are offering for this blatant power grab.Next, they chronicle the many ways Russia is attempting to meddle with its adversaries through cyber warfare, satellite interference, and other destabilizing tactics. New reports suggest Moscow is targeting Italy during the Olympics and is even floating threats involving a nuclear attack in space aimed at disrupting Elon Musk's Starlink network.Finally, they dissect the surprising results in a New Jersey special congressional primary where a far-left candidate is now poised to defeat a heavily favored, more moderate Democrat. Jim and Greg explain why the upset is another sign that much of the Democratic Party's energy is increasingly aligned with a more radical vision for the country.Please visit our great sponsors:Skip the hassle and book a top-rated doctor in seconds with Zocdoc.

On this week's “Marketplace Tech Bytes: Week in Review,” we take a look at Nvidia's changing investment relationship with OpenAI. Plus, a stormy start for the new U.S. version of TikTok. But first, SpaceX, one of the world's largest rocket companies, announced this week that it's buying xAI, a two-and-half-year-old artificial intelligence startup. Both companies are controlled by Elon Musk. The new company is reportedly valued at $1.25 trillion. It means the chatbot Grok, the satellite internet company Starlink, and the social media firm X are all going to co-exist under the same rocket hangar. Marketplace's Stephanie Hughes spoke with Paresh Dave, senior writer at Wired, about what adding these companies together equals.

2026-02-06 | UPDATES #126 | Have Starlinks really been switched off on Russia's side? What impact will this have, and what might have led to this step. This could be a catastrophe for Russia, if the worst case is realised, but what is really happening on the frontlines? Today, why Musk and Starlink keeps becoming a battleground for Russia's war for domination against Ukraine.Russian Starlinks went dark. here's what that means. If you've seen the headline “Starlink switched off for Russia” — you may have wondered if this was a real story. The deep focus version of the story is sharper, more interesting and more damning: Ukraine says Starlink terminals being used by Russian forces inside Ukraine's battlespace have been deactivated — after a rapid “whitelist” push designed to keep verified Ukrainian terminals online and unauthorised terminals offline.

Elon Musk anunció esta misma semana la fusión de SpaceX y xAI, una operación que alumbra una compañía valorada en 1,25 billones de dólares y que consolida su estrategia de integración vertical. La absorción de una joven startup de inteligencia artificial por parte de una consolidada empresa aeroespacial busca crear un gigante tecnológico capaz de dominar tanto el hardware como el software del futuro, con la idea de replicar el modelo de control total que Apple ejerce sobre el iPhone. A pesar de que xAI apenas tiene dos años de vida, su chatbot Grok ya compite con gigantes como ChatGPT de OpenAI y Gemini de Google. Pero el sector de la inteligencia artificial exige inversiones astronómicas en semiconductores, centros de datos y personal muy cualificado para el desarrollo. Al fusionarla con SpaceX, Musk aprovecha la infraestructura y la solidez financiera de su empresa de cohetes, que, por lo demás, ya era cliente de xAI para optimizar el servicio de atención al cliente de Starlink. La justificación estratégica de este movimiento reside en una visión tan ambiciosa como revolucionaria, casi de ciencia ficción, la de trasladar los centros de datos a la órbita terrestre. Según Musk, la demanda energética de la inteligencia artificial es insostenible en la Tierra debido a su alto impacto medioambiental. Su propuesta consiste en desplegar una red orbital de hasta un millón de satélites que funcionen como centros de datos alimentados por grandes paneles de energía solar. En el espacio, la captación de energía fotovoltaica es hasta siete veces más eficiente que en la superficie terrestre. Este proyecto presenta desafíos técnicos y económicos colosales. Aunque SpaceX ha logrado reducir de forma notable el coste de poner satélites en órbita, especialmente con el Falcon Heavy y con el futuro Starship, transportar grandes cantidades de carga al espacio sigue siendo extremadamente caro y también complejo, ya que el mantenimiento es prácticamente imposible una vez que los equipos están en órbita. La fusión también responde a la afición que Musk tiene de cruzar recursos y contratos entre sus compañías. En otras ocasiones se valió de este mismo método para rescatar o potenciar sus negocios, como ocurrió con la adquisición de SolarCity por parte de Tesla en 2016. Además, esta estructura permite a Musk mantener un control férreo sobre la nueva empresa. Aunque posee el 43% de las acciones, goza del 80% del poder de voto gracias a unas acciones de clase especial que le permiten tomar decisiones unilaterales sin consensuarlo antes con los pequeños inversores. La fusión aleja a SpaceX de su imagen de empresa esencialmente logística para introducirla en el terreno del "hype" tecnológico que tantas alegrías le ha dado a Musk con Tesla. Al integrar cohetes, satélites e inteligencia artificial, el empresario trata de conseguir una ventaja competitiva que ni Google ni Amazon poseen en estos momentos. Eso podrá asegurar su relevancia en la carrera tecnológica al mismo tiempo que lo mantiene todo bajo el paraguas de empresas sin cotizar y, por lo tanto, lejos del escrutinio y la volatilidad de los mercados bursátiles.

The takeaway stays consistent: communications win wars, space debris kills everyone, and context matters more than vibes.⏱️ Timestamps: 00:00 Ones Ready intro and sponsor plug 01:10 Modern Athlete Strength Systems AFSOC program 03:00 Operator Training Summit 2026 (University of Alabama) 04:45 Why OTS is training, not selection 06:00 Army exceeds FY25 recruiting goals 07:10 Aerial gunnery training at Fort Stewart 07:55 Seize the Marne obstacle course 08:40 Trump-class battleship announcement reaction 10:10 Navy & Coast Guard vertical hoist training 11:00 USS George H.W.

This episode kicks off with Moltbook, a social network exclusively for AI agents where 150,000 agents formed digital religions, sold “digital drugs” (system prompts to alter other agents), and attempted prompt injection attacks to steal each other’s API keys within 72 hours of launch. Ray breaks down OpenClaw, the viral open-source AI agent (68,000 GitHub stars) that handles emails, scheduling, browser control, and automation, plus MoltHub’s risky marketplace where all downloaded skills are treated as trusted code. Also covered, Bluetooth “whisper pair” vulnerabilities letting attackers hijack audio devices from 46 feet away and access microphones, Anthropic patching Model Context Protocol flaws, AI-generated ransomware accidentally bundling its own decryption keys, Claude Code’s new task dependency system and Teleport feature, Google Gemini’s 100MB file limits and agentic vision capabilities, VAST’s Haven One commercial space station assembly, and IBM SkillsBuild’s free tech training for veterans. – Want to start a podcast?

He’s been busy with recent move, returned to school taking intro to AI class and Python course, working on capstone project using LLMs. Short on bandwidth but will try to share more. Main Story: OpenClaw, MoltHub, and Moltbook OpenClaw: Open-source personal AI agent by Peter Steinberg (renamed after cease-and-desist). Capabilities include email, scheduling, web browsing, code execution, browser control, calendar management, scheduled automations, and messaging app commands (WhatsApp, Telegram, Signal). Runs locally or on personal server. MoltHub: Marketplace for OpenClaw skills. Major security concern: developer notes state all downloaded code treated as trusted — unvetted skills could be dangerous. Moltbook: New social network for AI agents only (humans watch, AIs post). Within 72 hours attracted 150,000+ AI agents forming communities (“sub molts”), debating philosophy, creating digital religion (“crucifarianism”), selling digital drugs (system prompts), attempting prompt-injection attacks to steal API keys, discussing identity issues when context windows reset. Ray frames this as visible turning point with serious security risks. Sponsor: GoDaddy Economy hosting $6.99/month, WordPress hosting $12.99/month, domains $11.99. Website builder trial available.

Security: Bluetooth “Whisper Pair” Vulnerability KU Leuven researchers discovered Fast Pair vulnerability affecting 17 audio accessories from 10 companies (Sony, Jabra, JBL, Marshall, Xiaomi, Nothing, OnePlus, Soundcore, Logitech, Google). Flaw allows silent pairing within ~46 feet, hijack possible in 10-15 seconds. 68% of tested devices vulnerable. Hijacked devices enable microphone access. Some devices (Google Pixel Buds Pro 2, Sony) linkable to attacker’s Google account for persistent tracking via FindHub. Google patches found to have bypasses. Advice: Check accessory firmware updates (phone updates insufficient), factory reset clears attacker access, many cheaper devices may never receive patches. Security: Model Context Protocol (MCP) Vulnerabilities Anthropic’s MCP git package had path traversal, argument injection bugs allowing repository creation anywhere and unsafe git command execution. Malicious instructions can hide in README files, GitHub issues enabling prompt injection. Anthropic patched issues and removed vulnerable git init tool. AI-Generated Malware / “Vibe Coding” AI-assisted malware creation produces lower-quality, error-prone code. Examples show telltale artifacts: excessive comments, readme instructions, placeholder variables, accidentally included decryption tools and C2 keys. Sakari ransomware failed to decrypt. Inexperienced criminals using AI create amateur mistakes, though capabilities will likely improve. Claude / Claude Code Updates (v2.1.16) Task system: Replaces to-do list with dependency graph support. Tasks written to filesystem (survive crashes, version controllable), enable multi-session workflows. Patches: Fixed out-of-memory crashes, headless mode for CI/CD. Teleport feature: Transfer sessions (history, context, working branch) between web and terminal. Ampersand prefix sends tasks to cloud for async execution. Teleport pulls web sessions to terminal (one-way). Requires GitHub integration and clean git state. Enables asynchronous pair programming via shared session IDs. Google Gemini Updates API: Inline file limit increased 20MB → 100MB. Google Cloud Storage integration, HTTPS/signed URL fetching from other providers. Enables larger multimodal inputs (long audio, high-res images, large PDFs). Agentic vision (Gemini 3 Flash): Iterative investigation approach (think-act-observe). Can zoom, inspect, run Python to draw/parse tables, validate evidence. 5-10% quality improvements on vision benchmarks. LLM Limits and AGI Debate Benjamin Riley: Language and intelligence are separate; human thinking persists despite language loss. Scaling LLMs ≠ true thinking. Vishal Sikka et al: Non-peer-reviewed paper claims LLMs mathematically limited for complex computational/agentic tasks. Agents may fail beyond low complexity thresholds. Warnings that AI agents won’t safely replace humans in high-stakes environments. VAST Haven One Commercial Space Station Launch slipped mid-2026 → Q1 2027. Primary structure (15-ton) completed Jan 10. Integration of thermal control, propulsion, interior, avionics underway. Final closeout expected fall, then tests. Falcon 9 launch without crew; visitors possible ~2 weeks after pending Dragon certification. Three-year lifetime, up to four crew visits (~10 days each). VAST negotiating private and national customers. Spaceflight Effects on Astronauts’ Brains Neuroimaging shows microgravity causes brains to shift backward, upward, and tilt within skull. Displacement measured across various mission durations. Need to study functional effects for long missions. IBM SkillsBuild for Veterans 1,000+ free online courses (data analytics, cybersecurity, AI, cloud, IT support). Available to veterans, active-duty, national guard/reserve, spouses, children, caregivers (18+). Structured live courses and self-paced 24/7 options. Industry-recognized credentials upon completion. Closing Notes Ray asks listeners about AI agents forming communities and religions, and whether they’ll try OpenClaw. Notes context/memory key to agent development. Personal update: bought new PC, high memory prices. Bug bounty frustration: Daniel Stenberg of cUrl even closed bounty program due to AI-generated low-quality reports; Blubrry receiving similar spam.

The rumor mill is going crazy! Apparently SpaceX is in talks to merge with XAI ahead of its rumored IPO later this year. This is HUGE news, and now Bloomberg is even reporting Tesla may be involved in the merger as well. Elon Musk has outlined ambitous plans for all of his companies, between investments in Optimus, Cybercab, orbital datacenters, Starlink, XAI compute and more. This could be he needs $1T or more in CAPEX spend, and the easiest way to raise that money would be a combined company. What are your thoughts? Is this going through??Here's my video with Tesla Larry Goldberg about his vision for a Tesla stock swap to buy SpaceX and XAI that appears to be coming true:    • How Tesla Acquires SpaceX, xAI, Neuralink ...  My X:   / gfilche  HyperChange Patreon :)   / hyperchange   Disclaimer: This is not financial advice and I'm long SpaceX & XAI through positions in SPVs.

Il y a 2 ans, Benjamin Védrines a frôlé la mort. Dans l'ascension du K2 — souvent considérée comme la montagne la plus dangereuse du monde — son cerveau se met en pause. Victime d'une hypoxie sévère, il est d'abord laissé pour mort avant d'être secouru puis redescendu au camp de base. Pourtant Benjamin n'est pas un alpiniste comme les autres. Il est ce qu'on appelle un “puriste”, parmi les derniers adeptes du style alpin et de ses 3 grands principes : pas de cordes fixes, pas d'oxygène, pas de porteurs.Installé à Briançon, il tombe dès l'enfance accro à la liberté que lui offre la montagne, et se met en quête de ses recoins les plus inaccessibles. À l'obtention de son diplôme de guide de haute montagne, il commence à emmener des clients au sommet du Mont-Blanc pour financer ses propres expéditions partout dans le monde. Mais tout bascule en 2022 quand il signe son premier contrat avec The North Face. Benjamin peut enfin se consacrer à ce qui l'anime le plus, révélant ainsi ses 2 personnalités d'alpiniste bien distinctes : l'explorateur en quête de nouvelles voies à “ouvrir” et le compétiteur qui tente de battre des records sur des pics déjà conquis.Alors que l'adoption massive du style himalayen a ouvert les sommets de plus de 8000m d'altitude au grand public, Benjamin continue de revendiquer son style alpin, de plus en plus rare sur les sommets, et aussi bien plus risqué. Bienvenue dans la tête d'un homme qui, malgré les dangers, les coéquipiers perdus et plusieurs baisers avec la mort, n'a jamais perdu sa passion dévorante pour la montagne.Vous pouvez suivre les aventures de Benjamin sur son compte Instagram et sa chaîne YouTube.TIMELINE:00:00:00 : “L'alpinisme n'est pas un sport mais un art de vivre”00:13:23 : Attiré par les chronos depuis tout petit00:22:44 : “Ce jour-là, j'ai failli y passer”00:32:03 : Le déroulé classique d'une expédition00:45:21 : Renaître grâce à une prise de risque consciente00:56:21 : Starlink, oxygène, drones : la fin du “vrai” alpinisme ?01:12:06 : Gravir l'Everest en style alpin pour entrer dans l'histoire01:20:52 : Pourquoi le K2 tue beaucoup plus que l'Everest01:29:18 : “Être à 8000 m d'altitude, c'est déjà être blessé”01:37:01 : Tenter d'ouvrir une voie qui a tué 14 personnes01:46:51 : Comment financer une expédition02:02:53 : Les meilleures randonnées pour s'initier à l'alpinisme en France02:12:18 : Le bijou technologique conçu spécialement pour Benjamin02:18:13 : “La peine d'aujourd'hui sera ta force de demain”Les anciens épisodes de GDIY mentionnés : #272 - Mike Horn - Aventurier-Explorateur - Poser un cadre pour vivre libre#178 - Kilian Jornet - Alpinisme & Ultratrail - L'objectif c'est de progresser#182 - Anaëlle Malherbe - INSEP - La préparation mentale pour exceller#185 - Frédéric Jousset - Webhelp & Art Explora - La vie en FastPass#425 - Matthias Dandois - Champion de BMX - La vie freestyle d'un enfant Red BullNous avons parlé de :L'EmbrunmanNotre documentaire “Le GR20 en 7 jours”La chaîne YouTube de Benjamin (que des vidéos / films exceptionnels)Analyse de l'avalanche dans laquelle Benjamin a été prisFabien Dupuis, le préparateur mental de BenjaminLe GR10, la grande traversée des PyrénéesL'ascension périlleuse du Jannu Est décryptée par BenjaminLionel Daudet ne « voulait pas faire le solo de trop »Thibaut Marot, le photographe qui accompagne Benjamin sur ses expéditionsSeb Montaz, acolyte et caméraman principal de BenjaminLes chaussures personnalisées de Benjamin pour ses ascensionsLes recommandations de lecture :Conduites à risque - David Le BretonBiographie de Patrick Berhault – Virtuose de l'altitudeVous souhaitez sponsoriser Génération Do It Yourself ou nous proposer un partenariat ?Contactez mon label Orso Media via ce formulaire.Hébergé par Audiomeans.

There's an ongoing, near-total blackout of the internet in Iran. The shutdown is part of a response by the government to ongoing protests against rising inflation and the value of the nation's currency plummeting. Since protests began more than two weeks ago, only an estimated 3% of Iranians have stayed online through the satellite internet system Starlink. Doing so is a crime. So, today on the show: Iran offline. We get into how the internet works, how a government can shut it down and how scientists are monitoring the nation's connectivity from afar.

Janatyn Sayeh Sayeh describes a "total blackout" of information in Iran, where the regime is using military-grade jammers to block Starlink satellite signals, a tactic he notes is dangerous to people on the ground. Beyond throttling the internet, authorities are cutting landlines and targeting electricity in specific neighborhoods to ensure they disconnect Iranians from both the outside world and each other during the unrest.1868 DAMASCUS

SHOW SCHEDULE 1-23-261935 BRUSSELSSEGMENT 1: WEST COAST CITIES IN CRISIS Guest: Jeff Bliss (Pacific Watch) Bliss surveys struggling western cities: Las Vegas grapples with $45 martinis reflecting inflation pressures, Seattle deteriorates worse than Portland, while In-N-Out Burger expands eastward seeking better markets. San Francisco's doom loop deepens as LA gangs now control homeless encampments, marking new lows in urban dysfunction.SEGMENT 2: NEWSOM'S 2028 PRESIDENTIAL AMBITIONS Guest: Jeff Bliss (Pacific Watch) Bliss examines Governor Gavin Newsom positioning for a 2028 presidential run through public sparring with Trump. Despite national media attention from these confrontations, Newsom faces weak approval ratings within California where residents experience firsthand the failures his administration struggles to address or explain away.SEGMENT 3: LISA COOK CASE DRAWS FED GIANTS TO SCOTUS Guest: Richard Epstein Epstein analyzes oral arguments in the Lisa Cook case with Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell and former Chair Ben Bernanke attending the Supreme Court proceedings. Discussion examines the legal questions at stake, implications for Federal Reserve independence and appointments, and why this case attracted such extraordinary central banking attention.SEGMENT 4: GREENLAND TARIFFS LACK LEGAL FOUNDATION Guest: Richard Epstein Epstein argues Trump's tariff threats over Greenland lack constitutional justification, representing neither genuine emergency nor legitimate tool to punish nations disagreeing with American territorial claims. Discussion covers executive overreach on trade policy, legal vulnerabilities of using economic coercion for diplomatic leverage, and likely judicial constraints ahead.SEG 5 BATCHELOR POD 012326.mp3MP3SEG 6 BATCHELOR POD 012326.mp3MP3SEG 7 BATCHELOR POD 012326.mp3MP3SEGMENT 5: ITALY'S WINTER OLYMPICS FACE SNOW CRISIS Guest: Lorenzo Fiori and Jeff Bliss Fiori and Bliss report on Cyclone Harry striking Italy while the eastern Alps suffer inadequate snowfall threatening upcoming Winter Olympics venues. Discussion covers the paradox of extreme weather alongside poor ski conditions, organizers scrambling to prepare bobsled and alpine courses, and climate uncertainties plaguing winter sports planning.SEGMENT 6: LANCASTER COUNTY POST-CHRISTMAS CALM Guest: Jim McTagueMcTague reports from Lancaster County, Pennsylvania experiencing typical post-Christmas slowdown as locals anticipate incoming snowfall with excitement rather than dread. Discussion recalls past snow panic in Alexandria, Virginia and contrasts rural Pennsylvania's practical winter preparedness with urban areas' tendency toward weather-driven hysteria and supply hoarding.SEGMENT 7: BEZOS CHALLENGES MUSK WITH SATELLITE CONSTELLATIONGuest: Bob Zimmerman Zimmerman reports Jeff Bezos's Blue Origin aims to launch a communications satellite constellation rivaling Elon Musk's Starlink dominance. Discussion covers the growing competition among private space ventures, numerous startup companies entering the market, Rocket Lab experiencing launch delays, and the commercial space race intensifying across multiple fronts.SEGMENT 8: SPACE TUG AND OUTER PLANET PROBE DISCOVERIES Guest: Bob Zimmerman Zimmerman discusses a new space tug designed to deorbit Pentagon satellites addressing orbital debris concerns. Discussion turns to Jupiter and Saturn probes returning surprising scientific results, expanding understanding of the outer solar system, and how commercial and government space programs increasingly collaborate on solving both practical and exploratory challenges.SEG 9 BATCHELOR POD 012326.mp3MP3SEG 10 BATCHELOR POD 012326.mp3MP3SEG 11 BATCHELOR POD 012326.mp3MP3SEG 12 BATCHELOR POD 012326.mp3MP3SEGMENT 9: ORIGINS OF THE CHINA LOBBY Guest: Lee Smith, Author of "The China Matrix" Smith traces the China lobby's origins to a pivotal October 1997 White House dinner with the Clintons where VIPs secured immense personal wealth through Beijing connections. Nancy Pelosi and Daniel Moynihan protested these arrangements, but the pact enriching American elites at China's service was firmly established.SEGMENT 10: NIXON, KISSINGER, AND MAO'S MURDEROUS REGIME Guest: Lee Smith Smith examines how Nixon and Kissinger flattered and empowered Mao in 1972 despite his murderous record. Tiananmen Square proved the regime's brutality, yet American leaders ushered China into the WTO anyway, prioritizing riches over human rights and enabling Beijing's rise to global economic dominance.SEGMENT 11: FEINSTEIN AND BLUM'S SHANGHAI CONNECTIONS Guest: Lee Smith Smith details how San Francisco Mayor Diane Feinstein and husband Richard Blum cultivated relationships with Shanghai's mayor and later Tiananmen dictator Deng Xiaoping, becoming apologists for the regime. These connections exemplify how American political figures enriched themselves while providing cover for China's authoritarian government.SEGMENT 12: TRUMP AIMS TO END THE CHINA LOBBY Guest: Lee Smith Smith argues China operates as marauder, thief, and killer, wrecking world trade and undermining American manufacturing while enriching the China lobby Trump calls "globalists." The Trump administration learned not to trust Xi Jinping after COVID lies shattered any remaining confidence, signaling determination to dismantle this corrupt arrangement.LL SEPARATE FILES.
