Nancy Mace making headlines, to new whispers about Russian UFOs, to the shocking subway stabbing involving DeCarlos Brown—we’ll break it down without the spin. We’ll also dive into the growing tensions in Texas’ Muslim communities, the trap of corporate health insurance, and the manufactured image of the “perfect family.” And we’re saying it plainly: calling out bad behavior isn’t racist—it’s real talk.

Jon Herold marks four years since his first Devolution Power Hour by diving straight into the tangled web of current events and executive orders shaping the present moment.

They explore the deeper battle between competing Freemasonic traditions, the manipulation of history by British elites, and the ongoing information war designed to demoralize Americans into rejecting their founding principles.
From Mozart’s republican lodge and Edgar Allan Poe’s warnings to the occult ambitions of Albert Pike and modern Israeli leaders calling for Solomon’s Temple, the hosts connect past and present efforts to restore oligarchy under the guise of order.

CannCon and Ashe in America tackle a powerhouse episode of Badlands Daily, starting with explosive Senate testimony on vaccines. They break down Ron Johnson’s grilling of witnesses, Toby Rogers’ damning autism research, and the staggering rise in chronic illness linked to shots.

Chris Paul and Burning Bright take on M. Night Shyamalan’s Split, unpacking its psychological horror and deeper symbolic layers. They highlight James McAvoy’s performance as Kevin Wendell Crumb and his 23 personalities, drawing parallels to narrative warfare and how media offers different “alters” of the same central message. The hosts dive into the good twin/evil twin dynamic, centralization versus decentralization, and how propaganda thrives on consensus while truth does not.
Their discussion branches into Trump’s communication style, trauma as both a weapon and a source of resilience, and how cultural manipulation echoes MK Ultra–style conditioning. They also examine connections to modern gender debates, linking the “they/them” identity to collectivism versus sovereignty, and the biblical concept of Legion as hive-minded evil. Closing thoughts tie Casey’s survival, rooted in her scars and trauma, to humanity’s antifragility and the danger of weaponized victimhood.
This episode blends film critique, philosophy, and cultural analysis, showing how Split serves as a metaphor for narrative control, sovereignty, and the battle between good and evil.

Brad and Abbey Zerbo return with a wide-ranging episode that blends humor, history, and hard truths.

From there, they dive into the darker side of population control agendas, fertility issues, and the psychological warfare used to condition society into compliance. Brad shares his latest video on psyops, exploring tactics like the “illusory truth effect” and Mockingbird Media’s endless repetition, while Abbey ties it to how narratives are weaponized against Trump and the public. The conversation then shifts to philosophy, as they reflect on Aristotle, Plato, and Socrates, drawing parallels between ancient wisdom, the Socratic method, and the Q movement’s call to “think for yourself.” They also spotlight Codex 9/11’s upcoming 4K release, theater screenings, and new merch, while weaving in personal stories, humor, and reflections on faith. With talk of food, family, and even diets, the episode showcases the unique balance of Brad and Abbey’s style: deep dives into truth and history mixed with warmth, wit, and community spirit.

CannCon and Ashe in America continue their journey through The Fourth Turning, diving into Chapter 6, which explores the “American High” from 1946 to 1964. They discuss how post–World War II optimism, economic expansion, and the rise of suburbia shaped a generation, while also planting the seeds of conformity, consumerism, and cultural stagnation. The hosts highlight how generational archetypes shifted during this era, with the Lost Generation entering elderhood, GIs moving into midlife, and Boomers arriving as children. They unpack the authors’ framework of turnings and constellations, exploring how historical cycles repeat and how manipulation by elites can alter their trajectory. Along the way, they connect these historical insights to today’s political and cultural struggles, reflecting on the erosion of the family, the rise of globalist influence, and whether the natural rhythms of history can be delayed or redirected in the age of surveillance and propaganda. It’s a thoughtful blend of history, prophecy, and present-day reflection that grounds the abstract theory of cycles in lived experience.
