In Season 4, Episode 18 of Altered State, Brad Zerbo and Zak Paine take on one of the most controversial 9/11 theories: the claim that directed energy weapons were used to bring down the Twin Towers. The hosts examine the origins of the theory, the figures who popularized it, and the specific arguments surrounding dustification, anomalous metal behavior, and eyewitness accounts.
Brad and Zak break down the technical claims point by point, discussing physics, structural collapse dynamics, and what the available evidence does — and does not — support. They explore whether certain anomalies require exotic explanations or if more conventional mechanisms sufficiently account for the observed destruction.
Throughout the episode, the conversation focuses on discernment and methodological rigor, challenging listeners to separate emotional appeal from scientific analysis. Rather than dismissing questions outright, the hosts scrutinize the theory’s internal consistency and evidentiary standards, encouraging critical thinking when evaluating extraordinary claims about 9/11 and advanced weapons technology.

Expulsions from England (1290), France (multiple times), Spain (1492), Portugal (1497), countless German states, Italian cities, and beyond—stretching back to antiquity and forward to 20th-century Arab countries. Historians document hundreds of instances across 2,000+ years. Tonight on the show, we trace the major waves, examine the recurring accusations and triggers (from blood libels to economic scapegoating), and explore why this might be relevant today.

In Episode 5 of MAHA Living, Jordan Sather and Nate Prince dive into the healing powers of psychedelic compounds and challenge decades of cultural conditioning around “Schedule 1” substances. From psilocybin and ayahuasca to ibogaine and DMT, they explore the growing body of research showing real therapeutic potential for depression, PTSD, addiction, and neuroplasticity.
The conversation breaks down how these compounds interact with serotonin receptors, stimulate brain-derived neurotrophic factors, and promote structural brain changes that can last months after just one to three sessions. Jordan and Nate also discuss the importance of intention, preparation, and responsible use, sharing personal experiences and lessons learned from both profound and difficult journeys.
They examine the historical suppression of psychedelics, the pharmaceutical industry’s resistance, and the recent shift toward decriminalization and medical research in certain states. Ultimately, this episode frames psychedelics not as party drugs, but as powerful tools—when used wisely—for rewiring the brain, confronting trauma, and fostering deep personal transformation.

In Episode 7 of Space Revolution, Lt Gen (Ret.) Steven L. Kwast and guest GMoney tackle one of the most consequential conversations in human history: the relationship between information, power and money.

The discussion examines how control over language, currency and narrative has shaped civilizations, from ancient empires to the modern era of fiat money and digital systems. They break down the dangers of centralized power, the weaponization of information and the historic patterns that have led to enslavement through economic manipulation.
Kwast and GMoney also highlight the emerging tools of the digital age, arguing that new technologies offer individuals the opportunity to reclaim power peacefully, without violence, by becoming aggressive learners and courageous participants in shaping the future.
At its core, this episode is a call to optimism, courage and responsibility in what they describe as a modern-day revolution for freedom, rooted in truth, faith and individual sovereignty.

In Episode 138 of Breaking History, Matt Ehret and Ghost examine the historical architecture behind modern geopolitical instability, tracing patterns of regime change, political assassinations, and intelligence operations that shaped the 20th and 21st centuries.

The hosts analyze case studies highlighted in the episode, connecting past interventions to current flashpoints and questioning how historical narratives are constructed — and who benefits from them.

Throughout the episode, Matt and Ghost emphasize the importance of historical literacy, arguing that understanding the continuity of policy and power is essential to interpreting today’s headlines. Ep. 138 challenges listeners to reconsider conventional timelines and to see modern crises as chapters in a much longer story of imperial strategy and global control.
