Episode CCXLV: The Return of the Emperor

We firmly reject the blackpill, but they attaq us relentlessly. Drudge running cover that there wasn't a plot, yet we have the receipts. More of the same from the people who have been terrorizing your ancestors for 1400 years. And other news like the usual suspects kvetching over the execution of a convicted murderer with gas. We agree, there are cheaper methods.  https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/2-michigan-men-charged-alleged-halloween-terror-plot-rcna241597  Sponsors: Fairly Decent Golf on Insta YouTube & TikTok Rae Faba - fine art from the Great Lakes Team Mandalore - keep cycling weird i paint akron -Local artists bringing art instruction to the masses.

Maher vs. The News Cycle: The crew says Maher’s right to highlight violence against Christians in Nigeria—and wonders why Big Media treats it like Voldemort (“the crisis that shall not be named”). Free Speech, But Make It Selective: If coverage were a game show, some stories get a confetti cannon and others get… the witness protection program. World on Fire (Sometimes Literally): From a Michigan church blaze to a North Carolina drive-by, the “expanding theater of war” sounds way too much like a Marvel phase we didn’t order. Africa, Jihadists, and Global Shrugs: Jay argues Boko Haram’s atrocities get global ghosted, drops a (spicy) Libya take, and gives a history crash course on violent expansions—then asks why Western integration keeps feeling like a group project with no rubric. Cultural Tangles at Home: Dearborn drama, mayoral mud-wrestling (metaphorical… for now), and whether public squares can host Christmas lights and pluralism without exploding. Meanwhile in Portland: “Insurrection at ICE” posts, local officials allegedly playing Twister with enforcement. Migration & Integration: Cultural fit is complex; integration is a two-way street.

Jay expressed shock and frustration over the reaction of left-wing individuals to the assassination of Charles Kirk, emphasizing that Kirk was a moderate conservative who promoted civil dialogue. Jay criticized the celebration of Kirk's death by some on the left and highlighted the irony of people being fired for their social media reactions to the incident. Jay also questioned the narrative surrounding recent mass shootings, suggesting inconsistencies in the stories. They explored the suspect's relationship with a transgender roommate, his political beliefs, and the evidence collected by authorities. Jay criticized Kash Patel's involvement in the investigation and made jokes about Valhalla. They also discussed Charlie Kirk's views on transgender issues and his recent interactions with a transgender individual. The conversation concluded with updates on the FBI's investigation and the suspect's alleged actions leading up to the shooting. They also discussed the tragic murder of Irina Zarutska, a Ukrainian refugee who was stabbed to death on a public transportation train in Charlotte, North Carolina. He expressed anger at the lack of action by other passengers and criticized the judicial system for releasing the suspect, DiCarlos Brown Jr., who had a history of schizophrenia and criminal convictions. Jay compared this case to the death of George Floyd, highlighting what he saw as a double standard in public reaction and media coverage. He suggested that if the victim had been a Black woman, there would likely have been widespread protests and destruction in the city. Jay concluded by calling for Brown Jr. to be publicly executed and warning others to filter their social contacts to avoid those with extreme views.

We discussed the murders at the Catholic Church in Minnesota; Jay vented about media spin, “manifesto cherry-picking,” and how every press conference turns into a Rorschach test. The takeaway: the killer’s writings were a stew of depression, contradictions, and bigotry—awful, not profound. The murderer stated that "six million was not enough," yet managed to completely avoid attaqing a synagogue, jewish politicians or yeshiva schools, just a Catholic Church with Catholic kids at Mass. How interesting.  We watched the clip with the scribbles on the weapons—Russian here, God there, random symbols everywhere. Verdict: not a 4D chess ideologue; more like a chaotic Pinterest board of bad ideas. Disgusting, tragic, and yes, embarrassingly cringey. CSI: Cyrillic Sixty-six pages of “Da, but why?” The guy mapped a church like he was speed-running a terrible video game and then wrote it all in Cyrillic for… vibes? Jay side-eyed the official story, Chris poked holes in the logic, Angel asked the practical questions. SSRIs, gun control, and conspiracy bait all showed up; none left with a trophy. Translating Doom (and Booking a Cruise) Angel pulled a translated journal entry from the Annunciation Catholic School shooter—grim logistics for a future attack. We hit pause and took a palate cleanser: the infamous Carnival chicken-finger brawl. Angel priced a 4-day Long Beach→Mexico run at “shockingly cheap,” then reminded everyone alcohol isn’t included—because nothing says “vacation” like paying extra to forget a fistfight over tenders. Elder Sasquatch Takes the Mission Field For dessert, Jay’s folklore fanfic: Bigfoot is actually Cain, cursed to wander until he—plot twist—asks to be baptized, gets a haircut, and becomes a Mormon missionary. Picture a seven-foot “Elder Foot” in a crisp white shirt, learning slang and logging 76 years of door-to-door repentance. Somewhere there’s a name tag that just says “Brother… uh… Big.”   Sponsors: Fairly Decent Golf on Insta YouTube & TikTok Rae Faba - fine art from the Great Lakes Team Mandalore - keep cycling weird i paint akron -Local artists bringing art instruction to the masses.

Global Events and Personal Reflections Jay hosted a solo episode discussing recent events, including the meeting of international leaders to address the Ukraine war and the Category 5 Hurricane Aaron. He expressed gratitude to the show's long-term supporters and reflected on his personal evolution away from anarchist views. Fatal Crash Sparks Immigration Debate Harjinder Singh, an illegal immigrant who obtained a driver's license in California, was involved in a fatal accident in Florida that resulted in the deaths of three Americans. Singh faces deportation and multiple charges of homicide and manslaughter. The Department of Homeland Security criticized California's decision to issue a commercial driver's license to an undocumented immigrant, highlighting the serious nature of Singh's criminal history and the threat he poses to public safety. The Florida Highway Patrol is investigating the crash, and Singh is in custody pending deportation after his state charges are concluded. Jay Critiques California's Immigration Policies Jay expressed strong opposition to Gavin Newsom and California's policies, suggesting extreme measures for his removal. He criticized California's handling of illegal immigration and voter ID laws, contrasting this with Representative Wesley Hunt's testimony on voting rights and personal responsibility. Jay shared Hunt's comments about the left's "bigotry of low expectations" and highlighted Hunt's experience as a Black congressman in a predominantly white district in Texas. Cyber Official Arrested for Child Luring Tom Alexandrovitch, an Israeli cybersecurity official, was arrested in Nevada for luring a child online and was later released on bail to return to Israel. The arrest was part of a two-week Internet Crimes Against Children operation in Henderson, Nevada, which resulted in the arrest of eight men, including Alexandrovitch and others from diverse backgrounds. Following his return to Israel, Alexandrovitch went on leave from his position as executive director of the Israeli Cyber Directorate, a government body under Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu. The incident sparked discussions about online safety for children and the role of cybersecurity professionals at international conferences. International Child Exploitation Case Debate The discussion focused on a case involving Elad Gaber, an Israeli national who was sentenced to 30 years in Federal prison in 2021 for operating a systematic sextortion scheme targeting underage girls. The conversation highlighted the challenges of combating online child exploitation when offenders cross international borders, particularly noting that over 60 Americans accused of sexual offenses against minors have fled to Israel since 2014 under the Law of Return. The discussion concluded with a debate about the effectiveness of international cooperation in justice matters and the need for public executions as a form of punishment, while also questioning the double standard in how different countries handle such cases. News Stories and Controversies Jay discussed several news stories, including the impact of tariffs on catalytic converter thefts in Michigan City, Indiana, and the controversy surrounding Barack Obama's presidential center in Chicago, which critics say is gentrifying the neighborhood. Jay also touched on the Israeli government's handling of a case involving an Israeli man accused of inappropriate behavior with children, comparing it to how other similar cases were treated.

Sydney Sweeney’s American Eagle ad meltdown: who’s mad and why. Nature vs. nurture, lightning round—genetics matter, not destiny (Angel checked with Google’s AI). Cancel culture’s flop era; real extremists hide, the left eats itself. Side quests: Chuck E. Cheese brawls, Cincinnati jazz assault, and a PSA—if cake makes you combative, skip the open bar.

Unfortunately, nothing positive to discuss with this one. We aren't blackpilling, or doing our best not to.  By Dan Palraz - Own work, CC BY-SA 4.0, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=126107179 Fairly Decent Golf on Insta YouTube & TikTok Rae Faba - fine art from the Great Lakes Team Mandalore - keep cycling weird i paint akron -Local artists bringing art instruction to the masses.

In this hilarious deep dive, the gang uncovers one of America's cheesiest secrets—literally. From the rise of ice cream parlors during Prohibition to the government's bizarre stockpiling of surplus dairy, Kennedy walks us through a somewhat true conspiracy theory about how milk and cheese shaped U.S. history. Along the way, they unpack the origins of government cheese, the Got Milk? campaign, and why Missouri might be hiding underground cheese bunkers. Plus: baby name madness, ‘Pilk’, and the unexpected link between dairy subsidies and Fifty Shades of Grey.

U.S. Policies & Global What-the-Hecks Jay kicked things off with some spicy takes on recent U.S. foreign policy—mainly, “Why are we bombing Iran again?” He had high hopes that Trump would at least not start another war, but alas. He pointed out the double standard: bombs for Iran, crickets for Syria and Nigeria. Apparently, some countries get the “meh” treatment unless they’re trending. Mexico: Paradise With a Side of Cartels We gave props to the beauty of Mexico and its people… then immediately added, “but don’t go there.” Jay described it as a full-blown narco state with stats that sound like they came out of an action movie—over 400,000 killed, 60,000 missing, and zero chance you should believe your cousin who says Cabo is ‘totally safe.’ Federal Lands & Federal Shenanigans Senator Mike Lee floated the idea of selling off U.S. federal lands—because apparently nothing says patriotism like a clearance sale on national parks. Thankfully, the idea tanked. Jay suspects Lee’s motives were less “freedom” and more “foreign investors with checkbooks.” Culture, Crime, and… Bacon? The group talked about a Muslim socialist immigrant winning the Democratic primary in NYC. Then they discussed Sharia law rumors in Dearborn. Would eating bacon out in the open be considered a crime? Surprise, we don't care and we are eating the bacon. We wrapped things up with an upcoming trip to see the Mothman statue—and yes, we are absolutely touching his legendary, sculpted behind.

1. Defending Catholic Priests and the Faith Jay and Elliott opened the show with a candid conversation about the portrayal of Catholic priests, focusing on the sacred seal of confession. Jay shared statistics showing that while abuse within the Catholic Church must never be ignored, it represents a smaller percentage compared to other sectors. Elliott echoed the frustration over anti-Catholic bias, questioning why legal scrutiny often zeroes in on Catholic clergy while overlooking broader contexts. 2. Confession Laws and Religious Freedom Next, they examined the controversial topic of clergy reporting laws. A new Washington state law requires clergy to report child abuse—even if it's heard in confession. Jay voiced strong concern over this, noting it threatens the core principle of confessional confidentiality. They discussed the Catholic Church’s opposition and a related civil rights investigation by the U.S. Department of Justice. The segment highlighted the tension between safeguarding children and upholding religious liberty. 3. Confidentiality and Abuse Statistics Jay presented eye-opening statistics: over a 52-year period, 4% of Catholic priests were accused of abuse, compared to 14% of Protestant clergy and nearly 10% of public school employees. While both hosts agreed all abuse must be punished severely, Jay warned that undermining confession could damage the Church’s role as a place of healing. Elliott supported the importance of confidentiality by recounting a powerful story of redemption through confession. 4. Global Affairs: Israel, Iran, and Western Policy The conversation turned international as Jay and Elliott analyzed rising tensions between Israel and Iran. Jay questioned U.S. involvement and criticized the evangelical political alignment with Israel. Elliott warned about the risk of escalation and the real human toll such conflicts bring. They also briefly touched on recent violence in Los Angeles. 5. Political Violence in Minnesota In a sobering segment, the duo broke down a shooting in Minnesota targeting Democratic politicians. The suspect, Vance Butler—appointed by Governor Walz and linked to overseas security firms—had published a manifesto attacking abortion rights. The incident led to protest cancellations across the state, raising questions about political extremism and public safety. 6. Local News and Security Concerns Wrapping up, Jay and Elliott reviewed a new residential armed security service and raised red flags about the legitimacy of its pricing and credentials. They also covered heavy local stories: a tragic child trafficking case in South Africa and a teen shooting in Akron. The episode closed with a warning about Cleveland’s infrastructure woes, including sewage overflows at Edgewater Park after storms—advising locals to steer clear of Lake Erie for now.
