GMoney welcomes legendary Bitcoin advocate Pierre Rochard for an electric episode of RugPull Radio that bridges high-level finance, meme warfare, and anti-establishment victory laps.

They dive deep into Rochard’s landmark legal win against the Department of Energy, which exposed the federal government’s politically motivated attacks on Bitcoin mining.

SITREP Ep. 114: Broken Wars, Veteran Truths, and the Real Cost of Empire

In one of the rawest and most revealing episodes of SITREP yet, CannCon and Alpha Warrior take listeners deep into the heart of war, disillusionment, and the political games that put American lives on the line. They unpack the shocking revelations from former Pentagon senior advisor Dan Caldwell’s interview with Tucker Carlson, exploring the disconnect between D.C. war hawks and the troops they send to fight endless, failing regime-change wars.
With brutal honesty, the hosts share their own experiences in Iraq and Afghanistan, reflecting on the lives lost, the civilians left behind, and the long-term psychological and geopolitical fallout. They call out the corruption of military leadership, the betrayal of allies, and the revolving-door foreign policy that fuels chaos abroad and PTSD at home.
But the episode also digs into bigger themes: the spiritual cost of war, the value of true service, and the long-term consequences of misguided interventionism. From combat experience and conscription debates to fears of future domestic terror used as political leverage, this episode is a deep dive into what happens when patriotism meets propaganda, and the warriors decide they’ve had enough.

Frankie Val welcomes special guest Eric Hunley for a mind-expanding installment of Quite Frankly, where forgotten history meets the digital now. The duo dive headfirst into America’s hidden past, kicking off with government-led bio-warfare experiments like Operation Sea-Spray, and connecting the dots to Plum Island, Lyme disease, and the dark legacy of MK Ultra.

From MLK wiretaps to RFK’s assassination autopsy gaps, this is the kind of episode that leaves you wondering what’s real and what’s constructed.
But this isn’t just a history lesson, it’s a commentary on the present.

Frankie Val, Zak “RedPill78” Paine, and Adel Zero reunite for a high-energy episode of Taking It Back, shredding through the latest political absurdities with their signature blend of wit, fire, and unapologetic commentary. The crew takes aim at the left’s baffling glorification of violent criminals like MS-13’s Kilmar Abrego Garcia, mocking the media spin and marveling at the America First movement’s meme-making prowess. They dive deep into the Democrats’ addiction to opposing Trump, even when it means endorsing human traffickers and chaos on the border.
From comparing liberal dysfunction to addiction cycles, to mocking the desperate messaging flops of the DNC, this episode lays bare the collapse of a party that’s lost the plot. They touch on Elon Musk stepping back from DOGE, the strategic timing of justice before the midterms, and how cultural wins, from food dye bans to 9/11 truth cracks in the Overton window, signal a shift.
The guys also reflect on the psychological warfare demoralizing the base, emphasizing the need for strategic wins, narrative control, and unity on the right. It’s a 360° dissection of political theater, elite detachment, and how to reclaim momentum, with some spicy banter and camera filter tips on the side.

The Daily Herold: April 24, 2025 – Trump’s Silent Moves, College Scams, and AI Classrooms

In this episode of The Daily Herold, Jon Herold dives into a deceptively “slow” news day that’s anything but dull. From Trump’s education-focused executive orders to strange bedfellows like the Atlantic landing an interview with 45, Jon calls out the weird optics and deeper strategy. He slams the push to integrate AI into schools, calling it “anti-education,” and unpacks how our broken university system traps young adults in debt for careers they never wanted. Herold shares his personal experience with the aimless path through academia and ties it into the broader problem of American cultural and economic stagnation.
Shifting gears, he speculates whether Trump is resurrecting his 2020 trade deal with China, suggesting the current narrative might just be a long road back to a deal already made, offering a potential "devolution proof" moment.
On the foreign policy front, Jon questions whether Russia’s latest strike on Kyiv was real or strategic theater and challenges the sudden media narrative shift that seems suspiciously convenient for Team Zelensky. He also critiques Trump's media strategy, wondering aloud why legacy “fake news” outlets still get top-tier access while MAGA media remains sidelined.
Also on deck: housing market red flags, India-Pakistan tensions, Elon Musk sues Minnesota over AI election laws, and explosive allegations about TPUSA misconduct. A scattered, scrappy, and unapologetically raw breakdown of today’s info war battlefield.

Badlands Daily: April 24, 2025 – Medi-Cal Madness, Military Justice, and Deep State Exposures

CannCon and Alpha Warrior team up for a packed episode of Badlands Daily, kicking things off with a critical look at California’s ballooning Medi-Cal spending. With illegal immigrants and weight-loss drugs like Ozempic driving costs through the roof, the duo dives into the unsustainable nature of socialized healthcare and the systemic economic slavery it creates. Alpha draws from firsthand experience in California’s public health system, offering sharp insights into how the deck is stacked against families trying to do better.
The conversation shifts to a major development in military justice: Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth announces the Pentagon will reverse discharge penalties for service members who refused the COVID-19 jab, calling the original order "unlawful." It’s a bombshell move with massive implications for reinstatement, back pay, and policy credibility.
But it’s not all redemption arcs—leaked Hunter Biden warrant details, tensions over Trump’s Iran strategy, and DoD infiltration by anti-Trump officials all take center stage. CannCon and Alpha unpack an O'Keefe exposé revealing a Pentagon official openly bragging about resisting Trump, raising red flags over seditious intent.
Top it off with a geoengineering bombshell (sun-dimming, anyone?), China-linked intel leaks, Hogg vs. the DNC, and a final dose of comic relief from Nancy Pelosi’s public fumbles, and you’ve got a classic Badlands blend of truth, tinfoil, and tactical optimism.

WWG1WGA After Dark Ep. 38: Peace Talks, Deportations, and Globalist Meltdowns

Brad Zerbo returns for another late-night edition of WWG1WGA After Dark, delivering a spirited rundown of international intrigue, domestic policy wins, and globalist fear-mongering in spectacular meltdown mode. The episode kicks off with Trump’s latest comments on Ukraine, where he hints a peace deal with Russia may already be within reach, if Zelensky can get out of the way. Brad highlights Trump’s strategic negotiation style, recalling parallels with North Korea and underscoring the value of strong leadership on the world stage.
Back home, the deportation of criminal foreign nationals, including the curious case of “Killmore”, sparks a reflection on psychological ops, legacy media lies, and Trump's methodical cleanup efforts at home. From ICE roundups to slashing DOJ grant waste and cutting government bloat, Brad lays out how reforms are rolling fast.
Shifting gears, the show spotlights Elon Musk’s quiet pivot out of Doge leadership, the rise of decentralization, and why the movement doesn’t need a savior, it just needs solid systems. He also calls out climate fraud in a brilliant segment dissecting Al Gore's long-running fear campaign, complete with forgotten predictions, beachfront property purchases, and a savage Dan Peña clip that rips the green grift apart.
Topping it off: Cuomo gets heckled, musicians like Cherie Currie rage against the regime, and globalist ghouls like Al Gore rage against their dwindling influence. Brad wraps it up with a strong defense of CO₂, plant life, and your right to breathe free.
This one’s a masterclass in energy, sarcasm, and late-night truth bombs...classic After Dark.

Devolution Power Hour Ep. 348: Culture War Cage Match – Trump, UFC, and Narrative Warfare

In this wide-ranging and fiery edition of Devolution Power Hour, Jon Herold and Burning Bright wade deep into the cultural, political, and narrative battles shaping our present reality. Kicking off with a dive into the mainstream media’s desperate attempts to frame the UFC as a hotbed of “deplorable” masculinity, the hosts explore how the promotion's unapologetically anti-woke ethos has made it a narrative battleground, and why Trump’s walk-ins at events hit harder than any punch in the octagon.
From there, they shift into economic brinkmanship, trade war chess, and Trump’s masterful narrative manipulation using tariffs as leverage. The hosts dissect a flurry of global developments, from Putin’s strategic “capitulation” in Ukraine (which aligns eerily well with Trump's three-year-old peace plan) to Europe’s economic collapse and the populist uprising it’s igniting. They also unravel the deeper meaning of what it takes to wage narrative warfare, questioning whether we’re watching a scripted resolution or an ongoing, real battle against rogue state actors.
And yes, they roast the idea of Bill Maher and the establishment media taking a redemption lap, labeling it a tactical "hibernation" strategy to outlast Trump and sneak back into relevance.
Packed with sharp commentary, personal anecdotes (including dead animals in walls and sword lore), and unapologetic truth bombs, this episode is both an information dump and a call to vigilance.
Buckle up...the narrative is shifting, and DPH is here to help you decode it.
