The No Treason Podcast Ep. 8: The Real Rulers, Blood Money & Spooner’s Grand Theory

Jonathan Drake delivers one of his most hard-hitting episodes yet as he continues dissecting Lysander Spooner’s No Treason, shifting from moral critique to the deeper question Spooner demands we confront: Who actually rules us? Jonathan walks through Spooner’s brutal distinction between the “boots on the ground” willing to enforce tyranny and the true ruling class, the financiers who bankroll governments, wars, and oppression for profit. Using Spooner’s fiery language, Jonathan exposes how the power to borrow and tax created a system where governments exist not to serve the people, but to guarantee endless revenue to international moneylenders. Through vivid examples, biblical parallels, historical quotes, and blistering analysis, he maps out a centuries-long pattern of manufactured crises, perpetual debt, and engineered wars designed to consolidate control. Jonathan also shares personal updates, responds to live chat, and previews next week’s dive into Spooner’s devastating explanation for the real cause of the Civil War. A dense, riveting continuation of Spooner’s demolition of constitutional mythology and the financial machinery behind global tyranny.

Devolution Power Hour Ep. 409: Panic in the Narrative — Epstein, Israel, and the Manufactured Meltdowns

Jon Herold and Chris Paul unpack a wildly chaotic news week dominated by the political establishment’s increasingly desperate attempts to control the narrative. They break down the renewed hysteria around the Epstein files, why ABC is panicking, why Democrats are suddenly scrambling to distance themselves, and how Trump’s timing continues to force their hand. The hosts examine Netanyahu’s high-risk political maneuvers, Israel’s deepening strategic crisis, and the media’s contradictory framing around both U.S. foreign policy and the Gaza response. Jon and Chris also tear apart the forced “MAGA is divided” storyline, exposing coordinated influencer psyops, synthetic outrage cycles, and the hall-of-mirrors effect created when media and partisans all react to each other instead of reality. With humor, receipts, and classic Devolution analysis, they map out how the old structure is collapsing under its own contradictions, and why the public is waking up faster than the narrative managers can adapt.

Spellbreakers Ep. 143 : The Heart is Not a Pump?

Matt Trump takes viewers on a deep dive into one of the most provocative alternative-science claims circulating today, the idea that the heart may not function as a conventional mechanical pump. Sparked by Patrick Gunnels’ recent show title, Matt investigates the origins of the theory, tracing it from Rudolf Steiner and early embryology to modern researchers like Thomas Cowan, Ralph Marinelli, and Gerald Pollack. He explores competing pump models, structured-water physics, vortex flow concepts, and even the stunning observation that embryonic blood moves before the heart forms. With humor, skepticism, and growing curiosity, Matt weighs mainstream cardiology against emerging ideas about infrared energy, vessel-driven propulsion, and whether the heart’s true role is regulation rather than force. The episode becomes a fast, fascinating tour through history, anatomy, philosophy, and experimental science, all aimed at rethinking what we’ve assumed about one of the body’s most essential organs.

Why We Vote Ep. 150: Tina Peters Retaliation, Colorado Power Plays & The Prosecutorial Panic

CannCon and Ashe in America break down the latest alarming developments in the Tina Peters case, beginning with news that she was placed in solitary confinement after filing a grievance, an action described by inmates as blatant retaliation.

CannCon and Ashe highlight how these officials openly admit their fear of Tina’s speech, not her alleged crimes, and connect the situation to Colorado’s wider political machinery, from Griswold and Crane to thousands of new campaign-finance violations and fresh filings in the Arizona elector case.

Jordan and Nate also dive into SSRIs, microbiome destruction, gut health, antibiotic overuse, and the soaring chronic-illness rates no one in the old regime wants to talk about. The episode closes with a fiery breakdown of SNAP as corporate welfare, revealing how billions in taxpayer dollars funnel straight into Coca-Cola, Frito-Lay, Walmart, and Big Food, while politicians pretend it’s about “feeding the poor.” A fast, funny, and fiercely honest episode charting the scientific and political shifts reshaping U.S. health policy.

Geopolitics with Ghost Ep. 58: Turkey, Israel & the Coming Regional Realignment - November 21, 2025

Ghost delivers one of his most sweeping geopolitical breakdowns yet, mapping out a rapidly shifting Middle East where alliances, conflicts, and power structures are moving faster than the mainstream can keep up. He begins by framing the week through his four essential lenses, Q, Devolution/Continuity of Government, the Sovereign Alliance, and Trumpomania, to explain why division, controlled friction, and political “kayfabe” are not signs of collapse but strategic components of a much bigger operation.
From there, Ghost dives into the deepening fracture between Israel and Turkey, Netanyahu’s escalating rhetoric, joint Israeli–Greek defense drills, intelligence leaks, and the quiet American hand shaping the region. He unpacks Jonathan Pollard’s explosive influence inside Israel, Huckabee’s controversial meeting with him, the nuclear brinkmanship behind Iran strikes, and why Netanyahu is openly preparing for the possibility of conflict with Erdogan.
The episode then widens to Syria, Lebanon, Cyprus, the Abraham Accords, and Tom Barrack’s behind-the-scenes diplomatic influence, revealing how Trump-era alignments are reshaping the board. Ghost closes with updates on Congo, ISIS-linked operations in Africa, and the emerging U.S.–Russia peace structure designed to end the Ukraine conflict. A dense, global, razor-sharp hour of pure geopolitical clarity.
