Welcome back to the conclusion of my interview with Author and Retired DEA Special Agent Léo Silva.Leo Silva spent over twenty-eight years on the frontlines of the global war on drugs as a special agent with the DEA. Leo's journey took him from the alleyways of Fronton Street to some of the most dangerous corners of North America, leading high-impact investigations against the Zeta and Gulf Cartels.He served as the Resident Agent in Charge of the DEA's Monterrey office, overseeing complex, cross-border operations that resulted in hundreds of high-value arrests and multi-million-dollar asset seizures. Over the course of his decorated career, he also held leadership roles in McAllen, Texas, and Guadalajara, Mexico—pioneering collaborative missions with Mexican authorities and helping rewrite the playbook for modern narco enforcement.Now, Leo has turned his attention to storytelling. His debut memoir, Reign of Terror, offers a powerful, unfiltered look at the reality behind the headlines—a world of corruption, courage, and the personal cost of justice. The book has gained traction internationally and has been translated into Spanish for a Latin American release.Leo is truly the real deal. This is a guy who has worked undercover numerous times in America and went after some of the most dangerous Mexican drug cartels. Please enjoy my chat with Leo Silva.

If you're a regular NPR listener, you know that our organization is under serious threat. The House of Representatives recently approved a request from President Trump to cut funding to the broadcast network. While this could be a major blow to all stations, the smaller ones are most at risk. Oftentimes, it's just a small team of people bringing news to an underrepresented region. Or in this case, just one person. Jeff Ferrell is the news director and sole full-time staff member at Red River Radio KDAQ in Shreveport, Louisiana. He walks us through his 13-hour day and shares how budget cuts could impact his station.Louisiana's feral hog population is approaching 1 million, and the invasive species is wreaking havoc across the state by destroying property and crops. Now experts warn they're causing major erosion along the coastline.State wildlife veterinarian Jonathon Roberts joins to discuss challenges with reigning them in, and possible solutions.Millions of Americans have been locked up in the “War on Drugs.” Despite the staggering death toll of the opioid crisis, the U.S. continues to treat drug use largely as a criminal issue.

In this episode of the XS Noize Podcast, Mark Millar is joined by Cam Muncey — guitarist, co-founder, and key songwriter of Australian rock legends Jet — to discuss his bold and unexpected debut solo album, Cam Muncey & the Delusions of Grandeur. Recorded in just 30 days with producer Jan Skubiszewski, Jet bassist Mark Wilson, and drummer Peter Marin, Delusions of Grandeur is an expansive, deeply personal record. Moving through dreamy shoegaze, melodic guitar-pop, 80s indie, swaying soul, and atmospheric art-rock, it draws on influences from The Smiths, Talk Talk, Curtis Mayfield, R.E.M., Mazzy Star, The War On Drugs, and Roxy Music. Guided by Muncey's warm vocals, the album invites listeners on a rich, genre-spanning journey. Highlights include “Already Gone,” “Don't Fade On Me,” “No Rock'n'Roll Star,” “I've Been Low,” “Breathing Again,” and the breezy pop of “Friendly.” In this candid conversation, Muncey shares what inspired him to step out on his own, the freedom he found creating without limits, and the lessons learned from touring with icons like Bruce Springsteen. Tune in to Episode #234 of the XS Noize Podcast for an honest, immersive look into Cam Muncey's world — a story of risk, reinvention, and musical discovery.

"A Sober Conversation" Although BC Camplight is the brainchild of the New Jersey born Brian Christinzio, don't be mistaken in thinking his onstage persona is a protective way of distancing himself emotionally from who he is offstage because it's the exact opposit. BC Camplight is actually a way of amplifying those emotions and as a result, it's hard to think of a more emotionally open and accesible artist working in music today. If you're getting the impression that BC Camplight is an open book, that's exactly what he is. With almost ten critically-acclaimed albums to his name like How To Die In The North, Deportation Blues, The Last Rotation Of Earth and his new one A Sober Conversation, Camplight's compositions are sprawling and discursive blasts of unflinching honesty, confessional narratives and unvarnished self-examination. Falling somewhere between The Waterboys' This Is The Sea and Leif Vollebekk's North Americana, over the years, Camplight's music has moved from strength to strength and his new album is perhaps his best yet, which with a body of work like he has, is saying a lot. A captivating blend of sweeping ballads, poignant rockers and ruminating piano-fueled stomp, A Sober Conversation is a stirring song cycle that's filled with anthems for survival. Although the songs are informed by trauma, loss and self-doubt, Camplight's poetic muscle in a peerless flex that makes every number rip through the darkness with the intention of finding a new brand of light. And that's exactly what this album does--more than illuminating the bleakness, it blasts it apart. It's stunning work. BC has toured all over the world, played on Later With Jools Holland, collaborated with members of the War On Drugs, The Last Dinner Party and Sharon Von Etten. And today, he's here with us.... https://bc-camplight.bandcamp.com/album/a-sober-conversation www.stereoembersmagazine.com (http://www.stereoembersmagazine.com) www.bombshellradio.com (http://www.bombshellradio.com) www.alexgreenbooks.com Stereo Embers The Podcast BLUESKY + IG: @emberspodcast Email: editor@stereoembersmagazine.com

In this podcast Jeff discusses a moment he never dreamed would occur: Iran's nuclear facilities were destroyed by America and Iran is finally punished for its global terror. Every President from Carter through Biden looked the other way or appeased Iran's terrorism — Trump did not. Jeff eats some crow but points out the MAGA leading voices who sided with the Muslim terror state that tried to kill our President. And an update on Jeff's federal fraud sentencing before his fraternity brother. It was a hoot, it was surreal and it brought back a lot of memories.

The direct link for the whistleblower case is here: https://projectavalon.net/forum4/show... Mind Control post: https://projectavalon.net/forum4/show... Being a whistleblower is a tough enough endeavor without the added challenges of exposing a government that is running secret mind control programs on a staggering number of victims. MKUltra was a top-secret program that sought to control people's minds without their knowledge, but there were major problems with the program, both from a moral and scientific standpoint. Annalie Cummings has never known a life that didn't involve trauma-based mind control, and her story of being a child in the system will haunt you. The role of tunnels, museums and eugenics is an interesting angle to this story, as well as the horrible stories of torture, medical experimentation, and betrayal by her mother.

This week Jeff opens with the long-awaited Israeli strike on Iran's nuclear infrastructure, a dazzling military operation years in the making. But instead of support for Israel, Jeff is stunned by the response: hatred not only from the far left but now pouring out of MAGA's biggest names. Yes, the Trump-right has joined Hamas and the progressive left in their obsessive Jew hatred, and Jeff is seething.Trump, meanwhile, couldn't resist taking credit for the Israeli success after the fact, even though he reportedly tried to block the strike for months. And if he actually helped, why didn't he greenlight American B-52s to finish the job on the underground nuke sites? Why is he trying to make a huge deal when the world's biggest sponsor of terror is on its knees?Also this week: a tale of how a young lawyer buying his first suits comes full circle 30 years later, this time as a man paying cash with 44 tailored suits under his belt. Plus, Jeff faces a federal judge he went to college with and admits, despite all of his own accomplishments, the judge is the better man.As always, Jeff pulls no punches. Not for MAGA. Not for Trump. Not for the far left. And certainly not for anyone siding with the world's worst terror regime.

Psychedelic therapy is on the verge of reshaping mental health, trauma healing, and human consciousness. This episode reveals what's really happening behind the scenes at the FDA, inside pharmaceutical companies, and within the global movement to legalize MDMA-assisted therapy. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Rick Doblin, PhD, the legendary founder of MAPS and one of the most influential figures in psychedelic science. With nearly 40 years leading clinical research on MDMA, psilocybin, and trauma healing, Rick brings unmatched insight into how these compounds are transforming functional medicine, emotional resilience, and neuroplasticity. They break down the regulatory battle over MDMA therapy, the clash between pharmaceutical profit and public benefit, and the urgent need to combine pharmacology with therapy for real results. You'll also learn how psychedelics impact neurohacking, epigenetics, and the default mode network—and why the next frontier of self-transformation may be couples therapy with MDMA. This episode offers critical knowledge for anyone serious about biohacking, trauma release, mental performance, and accessing deeper states of healing. This podcast channel dives into the intersections of psychedelics with fasting, ketosis, cold therapy, and self-quantification—and how altered states can unlock more energy, better relationships, and lasting change. You'll Learn: • Why separating therapy from psychedelics is the most dangerous path forward • How MAPS evolved into a public benefit pharma company—and what went wrong • The real story behind the FDA's rejection of MDMA therapy in 2024 • How MDMA affects neuroplasticity, mitochondria, and trauma recovery • Why group therapy and couples therapy are the future of psychedelic healing • The dangers of overusing ketamine—and how it's being exploited by profit-driven clinics • What the Psychedelic Science 2025 conference will reveal about the future of medicine, spirituality, and consciousness hacking • How psychedelics could reverse epigenetic trauma passed down through generations • The role of default mode network suppression in spiritual experiences and trauma resolution • Why the war on drugs was never about safety—and what a post-drug-war world might look like Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking.

Undercover work is psychological warfare in designer jeans. Ex-cop Tegan Broadwater explains how authenticity beats acting when lives are on the line. [1/2]Jordan's must reads (including books from this episode): AcceleratEdFull show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1160What We Discuss with Tegan Broadwater:Drug enforcement is akin to treading water. Police work prevents drug problems from worsening rather than eliminating them, putting officers at extreme risk just to maintain the status quo.Undercover cops never use drugs. Officers use clever tactics like fake courthouse visits to build street credibility without compromising their cases or health through actual drug use.Gang operations are surprisingly business-like. Crips run complex enterprises with rental properties, specialized roles, and supply chains, though internal conflicts limit their effectiveness.Trust is the currency of illegal business. When drug dealers invite outsiders to their houses, it represents a major security breach and indicates significant trust in their criminal relationships.Authenticity beats acting under pressure. An undercover agent needs to stay true to their core personality rather than adopting elaborate personas that fall apart under high-stress situations that might out them in the field. Stay tuned for part two of this episode later this week for more tactical insights!And much more...And if you're still game to support us, please leave a review here — even one sentence helps!

Murphy continues with Kenny Williams, a nationally recognized interdiction expert, to reveal the untold world of canine law enforcement and highway drug interdiction. Dive into the intense, real-life tactics used by police K-9 units to detect narcotics, identify suspicious behavior, and make critical busts during high-stakes traffic stops. Kenny shares jaw-dropping stories from the front lines, exposing how cartels adapt, the psychological cues that tip off traffickers, and the legal challenges of asset seizures. Discover the behind-the-scenes world of criminal profiling, the evolving war on drugs, and how strong communication and motivation drive success in law enforcement.
In this week's episode of The Free Thought Project Podcast, Jason, Matt, and Don sit down with John Kiriakou—former CIA officer turned whistleblower, best-selling author, and one of the few people ever prosecuted for exposing the U.S. government's illegal torture program. After blowing the whistle on CIA waterboarding, John became a powerful voice for truth, transparency, and accountability in an age of state secrecy and suppression. We dive straight into the current state of the American police state, discussing the Trump administration's troubling remarks about suspending habeas corpus, and what that could mean for dissenters and immigrants alike. We explore the alarming normalization of censorship, as the U.S. government continues to universities and punish those who dare to speak out against its narratives. The conversation then turns to U.S.-Israel relations, as we analyze the theatrical "shift" in Trump's tone toward Netanyahu and Israel's influence on American foreign policy. Is it genuine? Or just more Kabuki theater masking business as usual? John gives us some powerful insight on why this may actually be genuine. We also examine America's role in cultivating the opium trade in Afghanistan, and the decades-long hypocrisy of the so-called war on drugs. John offers rare firsthand insight from inside the system—what was said versus what was done—and how that disconnect continues to drive global suffering. As always, we end on a white pill note, asking John what gives him hope and whether the truth is still worth the cost in a world that punishes it. His answer is as heartfelt as it is encouraging. This is a wide-ranging, no-holds-barred conversation with one of the bravest voices in modern American history.

This oligarchy helped fund the Nazi regime and then saved thousands of Nazis to work with the Central Intelligence Agency.

Evidence supports that this oligarchy further led the United States into its longest-running wars in the ideal areas for opium crops, while also massively funding wars in areas of coca plant abundance for cocaine production under the guise of a "war on drugs" that is actually the use of drugs as a war on us. Drugs as Weapons Against Us tells how scores of undercover U.S. Intelligence agents used drugs in the targeting of leftist leaders from SDS to the Black Panthers, Young Lords, Latin Kings, and the Occupy Movement. It also tells how they particularly targeted leftist musicians, including John Lennon, Jimi Hendrix, Kurt Cobain, and Tupac Shakur to promote drugs while later murdering them when they started sobering up and taking on more leftist activism. The book further uncovers the evidence that Intelligence agents dosed Paul Robeson with LSD, gave Mick Jagger his first hit of acid, hooked Janis Joplin on amphetamines, as well as manipulating Elvis Presley, Eminem, the Wu Tang Clan, and others.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

Economic War: Trump Says Hang Tough, Democrats Cry Recession – First-quarter GDP shows mild contraction, largely due to a surge in pre-tariff imports. Trump blames Biden for lingering weakness but insists his tariffs are reshaping the economy for the better, despite fears of toy shortages and falling consumer confidence. White House Messaging Misstep? Bryan Urges Recommitment to “Economic Revolution” – With approval slipping and the press questioning Trump's strategy, Bryan argues the president must rally Americans daily with a clear mission and message: the Five Bucket Strategy is tough, but worth it. Ukraine Minerals Deal Signed - But with Strings – Trump's long-anticipated minerals deal with Kyiv includes no repayment of past aid, no troop guarantees, and unclear control over key nuclear facilities, raising doubts about its value beyond diplomatic symbolism. India-Pakistan War Looms – After a terror attack in Kashmir, the region teeters on the edge of war. Pakistan denies involvement while India considers retaliation. Both sides are nuclear-armed, and U.S. diplomats are racing to de-escalate the crisis. Spain's Blackout Linked to Solar Power Collapse – The cause remains murky, but critics say overreliance on renewables and lack of grid inertia left the country vulnerable. Germany may face similar risks. France Declares War on Cocaine Cartels – With cartel-linked violence spreading in French towns, lawmakers authorize a sweeping crackdown. Conservative momentum grows as citizens push back against the “Mexicanization” of France. Fake Video Hurts Coca-Cola Sales – A viral false claim that Coke supported ICE raids causes Hispanic consumers to boycott. The case underscores the power of Leftist misinformation—and the need for the White House to fight back with equal messaging intensity.

Wir sprechen darüber, wie ein eigentlich nach europäischen Städten benanntes Material in den USA zu jenem Stoff wurde, der nicht nur die Arbeiterschaft einkleidete, sondern bald zum Symbol für Freiheit, Unangepasstheit und Individualität wurde. // Erwähnte Folgen - GAG475: Eine kleine Geschichte des Anzugs – https://gadg.fm/475 - GAG455: Das Unternehmen Pastorius – https://gadg.fm/455 - GAG228: Berliner Blau – die Erfindung einer Farbe – https://gadg.fm/228 - GAG437: Die holprige Karriere des Reißverschlusses – https://gadg.fm/437 - GAG420: Harry Anslinger und der erste "War on Drugs" – https://gadg.fm/420 // Literatur - Daniel Miller und Sophie Woodward.

In the war on drugs, police rely heavily on confidential informants, because citing a CI empowers them to use tactics with less oversight and fewer guardrails. But the practice is rife with abuse, allowing them to skirt civil liberties on the word of snitches who might not even exist. The problem is pronounced in the historic fishing town of New Bedford, MA. Investigative reporters have identified many instances where cops used the CI system to make dubious arrests, rip off dealers, and avoid accountability. It found that one of the biggest users of these shady tactics has long evaded culpability - and today is the city's police chief.From The Boston Globe's vaunted investigative unit, “Spotlight: Snitch City” uncovers the murky world of informant-based law enforcement and its history in one community. Host Dugan Arnett talks to former New Bedford officers and CIs about misuse of the system. It also uncovers evidence of questionable behavior by Paul Oliveira, who built his career using snitches and is now head of the department.OUR SPOILER-FREE REVIEWS OF "SPOTLIGHT: SNITCH CITY" IN THE FINAL NINE MINUTES OF THE EPISODE.

With the recent arrest of former Philippine president Rodrigo Duterte for crimes against humanity, a spotlight is again on actions taken during his presidency. Even years after Duterte declared his war on drugs, the reverberations continue to tear through the country.

She traveled to the Philippines to understand the aftermath of Rodrigo Duterte's war on drugs.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
