About this episode

Matthew Littlesburg and the New Year’s Day Cybertruck bombing in New Orleans have exposed a disturbing pattern of domestic psychological operations linked to Fort Bragg. Charlie Robinson joins the program to analyze how these events mirror Operation Gladio tactics, pointing to the 4th PSYOP Group’s Ghosts in the Machine video as a blueprint for modern state-sponsored chaos. The connection between military manifestos, Turo rentals, and the Joint Special Operations Command suggests a coordinated effort to destabilize the American empire from within.

Secondary investigations reveal a deep history of high-profile criminals emerging from Fort Bragg, including Nidal Hassan and John Walker Lindh, while Ryan Wesley Routh’s frequent visits to the base raise questions about the second Trump assassination attempt. In California, Mayor Karen Bass and LA DWP CEO Janice Quinones face scrutiny over dry hydrants and DEI-driven infrastructure failures during the Pacific Palisades wildfires. These disasters, alongside the Maui fires, show anomalies consistent with Directed Energy Weapons, occurring just as State Farm and other insurance giants exited the regional market. Meanwhile, the rise of intelligence-connected figures in the podcasting space, such as those involved in the Tenant Media controversy, suggests a new iteration of Operation Mockingbird designed to steer alternative narratives.

Charlie Robinson reflects on the 500th episode of Macro Aggressions and his recent acquisition of Activist Post following the personal loss of his mother to pancreatic cancer. The conversation takes an esoteric turn into Operation Sea Spray and the Serratia marcescens experiments conducted by the U.S. military over San Francisco. Greg Carlwood closes with a look at the Chiron Corporation’s mythological branding and a warning about potential security threats at the Gasparilla festival in Tampa.


CHAPTER 01 / 15 Discussion

Introduction to Charlie Robinson and Macro Aggressions

Greg Carlwood introduces Charlie Robinson, host of the Macro Aggressions podcast and author of The Octopus of Global Control. Robinson has recently expanded his media presence by purchasing the independent news websites Activist Post and Natural Blaze. The discussion sets the stage for analyzing recent high-profile events through a conspiratorial lens, focusing on the "controlled demolition" of the American empire.

00:00 The planet's puppet masters almost surely have a plan. There clearly may be something there beyond the red, and until we've thoroughly tested every last close chested view I thought we'd think we know the less we would wear without teeth because we know they're lying to us just so not to agree where

00:38 It's been a long December from the Sunshine State. I'm Greg Carlwood and even just two weeks into the new year, it's hard to stay caught up on all the stress inducing PSYOPs weather weapon events chemical fogs bird flu migrations drone swarms in World War Three warnings but we do the best we can Though it seems like the pedo-narcissist psychopathic parasites of the power pyramid are frantically flipping through every page of The Big Playbook, trying to keep us in a confused panic and maybe even implode the empire they built on blackmail, black markets and even a little black magic.

01:28 It's hard not to get sucked into the drama of the day, an endless loop of narrative counter-narrative analysis. But it's important to remember how much of it is designed to do just that and how seemingly random events arrive right on schedule Well here to break it all down connect The Big Dots and demystify The Madness as one of the best available options my friend in yours Charlie Robinson Hard to believe he's only been here three times before, but we've spent a lot of that time covering his great books with titles like The Octopus of Global Control. Hippocrates E. Surviving in A World Of Cultural Double Standard and The Controlled Demolition of the American Empire coauthored with Jeff Berwick. Charlie is also the host of the always insightful Macro Aggressions podcast and the emcee of the annual Anarcho Poco Conference in Alco Poco Mexico

02:17 But that's not all, people. He also recently purchased the well-known independent news website Activist Post and the alternative health website Natural Blaze. Busy busy guy and as always so much to talk about so little time The Great Octopus Tamer Macro Aggressions Maestro And your PSYOP Season Chaos Correspondent Charlie my man welcome back Best intro in the business always Thank you for having me It's always great to be back on The Higher Side Chats Thank you thank you what do you know a lot of people are trying to get the audience's attention so we really gotta jazz them up so they don't change that dial but. You are one of the best and it's impressive to see you find these new ways of changing it up and doing creative things in hosting events and buying websites i really need to take more pages out your book and find some new ways to change things at myself but

CHAPTER 02 / 15 Discussion

New Year's Day Attacks, Fort Bragg PSYOP Connections

A series of coincidences are identified between the New Year's Day Cybertruck bombing and a crowd attack in New Orleans. Both suspects were military men stationed at Fort Bragg, rented vehicles via the Turo app, and left manifestos. The analysis suggests these events mirror Operation Gladio tactics and points to the 4th PSYOP Group's "Ghosts in the Machine" video as evidence of domestic psychological warfare.

fort bragg· cybertruck· new orleans· turo app· operation gladio· army special forces· ghosts in the machine

03:09 Let's get into the real catalyst for coming together, and that's the two events that kicked off the new year. The Cybertruck bomber and New Orleans crowd attack. They say there is no connection between the two but both rented EV trucks from the same app, decided to cause chaos on the same day, and both have been military men stationed at Fort Bragg known for their psychological operations unit That's kind of a lot of coincidences. Yeah, just a few I just recently recorded a macro aggressions episode hasn't gone out yet talking about this exact same thing. I get very nervous when I see things like this that line up both using the Turo app to rent electric trucks

03:51 both leaving manifestos, one written one video. Both from Fort Bragg both were in Afghanistan at the same time both carried out their attacks on the same day I mean you could call me a coincidence theorist if you'd like but i get nervous when I see things like this especially when the media frames it in a way that is looking for a reaction and I'll tell you I was on January 1st when this was all happening that was the first day that I taking over activist posts. So I had my hands full, of course i'm watching the news because i'm republishing the news but the thing that caught my eye and you see that everyone's getting run over in New Orleans and it's horrible...I can put myself in that scenario but I also spent 10 years in Las Vegas real estate one of my best friends sold out The Trump Towers there so I know that place really well And it wasn't until I saw the photograph

04:44 a burning Cybertruck with the Trump logo right next to it. I took one look at it and said, oh we've got Operation Gladio come to American soil because if there's one thing they love to do is send messages and see a burning Cybertruck which reminds you of Elon Musk next to the Trump logo and these two have some sort of weird bromance going on. It was a message in one photograph and I took one look at that and said Nope, none of this is authentic. There's far more to this story than what's being reported. I'm absolutely with you it looked like the movie poster for some post apocalyptic film coming out like Civil War two or something

05:24 And the new orleans story definitely had some weird aspects as you say you've been there i've been there if you're on bourbon street you know it's a pedestrian street almost all the time specially at a time like new years and the barriers every city has pedestrians streets in their always those big metal barriers. Why were the barriers down you know that's the weird thing is they say the barriers were down i don't know that they ever been down he has this ice flag, And then no agenda found a clip where there was an article in a magazine run by al-qaeda called inspire and they call the f one fifty the ultimate mowing machine for mowing down crowds. Add this was in twenty sixteen the last time trump was about to take office so they really did dust off an old idea, and then like i don't know scramble some

06:15 Poor guys brain to make him do the thing but there also was this side story of bombs in the area bomb making materials, is his home it's like when these things happen they say well there were definitely more than one shooter and then suddenly nope there's a one shooter who acted alone that's the vibe i got from this like. Oh there's bombs around but we know that icis equal cia right And when I saw the cyber truck, you know the electric car. I thought about a conversation I had with Whitney Webb in 2020 in the lead up to that election, the Biden election

06:51 And one of the things that she was talking about was that they were role playing scenarios that might happen during the election. They're saying, well maybe a cyber attack on water treatment facilities and power stations and things like that but the third component that they were testing electric vehicles being remotely controlled and driven into people that were standing in line waiting to vote, that they had role played that. Now it didn't happen in 2020 of course but the idea that's a concept that they're role playing and of course the group that was role playing it was you know like a unit 8200 connected Israeli firm that was like really sketchy... It's like are you saying that we should be aware of this or are you telling us that you're planning something like this?

07:34 My little tinfoil hat starts to come out when I hear these things in advance. And so, I had that in the back of my mind for the 2020 election. I had it in my mind for the 24th election as well and neither scenarios happened But it just kind of got me thinking when I saw it, well this is a truck that's being used or its running people over. It's doing all this. Yes that happened not too long ago in Germany over Christmas with the Christmas market where a bunch of people were run over there as well so car as a weapon? Its not the first time we've heard that but leave it up to mainstream media to describe it and all their headlines

08:11 car runs over people, not a person runs over people. It's like maximum overdrive like we just woke up one day and the machines had taken over and they're just driving without people in it but no there's actually human beings in these cars allegedly and they are running people over so as Wilford Brimley's character in The Firm said I get paid to be suspicious when i got nothing to be suspicious about you know so when i see things like this, i just cannot let it go and i think that its worth digging into especially when you start to notice that you know, the overlap between the people involved. And you say well it'd be one thing if it was a disgruntled guy who had lost his job and you could sort of understand that but when both of the drivers have ties to the same military base and that military base is the same military base If we can go back just two years to 2022 if you remember that really creepy video that was put out called ghosts in the machine

09:07 That was put together by a group that is called the US Army Special Forces, which is the Green Berets. But within that, the components that they work on counterinsurgency special reconnaissance, counterterrorism information operations, psychological operations, psychological warfare. So they're the ones that put that out and it was from the fourth PSYOP group And that's Army Special Forces Information Operations. And just so that people aren't confused as to like, well maybe not... Maybe it's them, maybe it's not. No, if you watch the video to the end and it's three and a half minutes long at the very end they put the website goarmysof.com

09:56 It's right there. They're not trying to hide it, it's not for you to speculate as to who is behind it they are telling what going on and some of the text that runs during that video You'll find us in the shadows Warfare is evolving All the world a stage We can deceive persuade change influence inspire we come in many forms we are everywhere I get freaked out when i see that. That didn't strike me as a threat to other countries, right? I took that as a domestic threat

CHAPTER 03 / 15 Discussion

Historical Fort Bragg Incidents, Gasparilla Security Concerns

A list of high-profile criminals and terrorists with ties to Fort Bragg is reviewed, including John Walker Lindh and Nidal Hassan. Concerns are raised regarding the upcoming Gasparilla pirate festival in Tampa due to reports that the New Orleans attacker visited the city twice prior to his crime. Local security drills and the presence of foreign military personnel at MacDill Air Force Base are cited as potential warning signs of a staged event.

fort bragg· john walker lindh· nidal hassan· gasparilla· tampa· mcdill air force base· hassan akbar

10:36 that the psychological warfare was going to intensify until morale improved. Right, and I really don't like the use of AI but i did use chat GTP to ask this question about notable tragic events where the person was connected to Fort Bragg and it gave a whole lot of events John Walker Lind called the American Taliban. He was an American who became famous as the American Taliban, was arrested in 2001 in Afghanistan while fighting for the Taliban. He basically switched sides. He was stationed at Fort Bragg Sergeant Hassan Akbar in 2003

11:16 Another us army soldier he carried out an attack on his fellow soldiers during the early stages of the iraq war you killed two soldiers and injured several others in a grenade attack, he was from fort bragg. Then you have another name I can barely pronounce, but Abdukalim Mujad Mohammed in 2009 formerly known as Carlos Bledsoe much easier named to pronounce. He was involved in a shooting spree at a military recruiting center and Little Rock Arkansas in 2009 killed a soldier and injured another he was from Fort Bragg as well. And then the case of army major Nidal Hassan

12:00 A US Army psychiatrist who carried out the Fort Hood shooting in 2009 also spent a lot of time at Fort Bragg. And this was just with one ask, you know? I was going to go down the list of like all these events i could remember and see if there was a connection but...I mean that right there tells you that they got something sketchy going on there and this is also weird so there is a new threat of interest With the New Orleans guy, they say that he visited Tampa twice before the attack. And there's a huge military base here called MacDill which is apparently one of the main hubs for all Middle Eastern operations even on the local Tampa subreddit someone was asking why are there Saudi soldiers here at the Marriott? Then people just explained well this is a base right here that people in the Middle East do operations with so

12:54 It's not super unusual but you know my spidey sense went off a little bit like this is the kind of thing you hear about in the aftermath the kinda warnings people say but so. There is an event coming up in Tampa. It's our biggest thing, it's called Gasparilla. It's like a pirate themed Mardi Gras. They have a big debaucherous day where adults get drunk and dresses pirates and they bring out the pirate ship. And then they have another day where it's kids. My daughter last year she loved dressing up as a pirate being on a main road waving to everybody, everybody waving back. She still talks about it we've been looking forward to going to the Gasparilla parade well

13:32 well now there's articles all over tampa about how this guy was here previously twice they don't know if there is a connection security will be heightened and will be running live drills to prepare we've heard that before so i dont know if im gonna go but I just wanted to throw that out there now in case something happens and it's like, yeah. This is the kind of stuff that happens before an event. Everybody says there were warnings, there were drills that went live this kind of stuff. And it's circling around my home city which was a little concerning." Yeah. Fort Bragg is a sketchy place. It's the Army's most important base

CHAPTER 04 / 15 Discussion

JSOC Operations, Ryan Wesley Routh and Trump Assassination Attempt

The Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC) is described as a "private kill squad" answering directly to the President, operating outside Congressional oversight. The discussion links Ryan Wesley Routh, the suspect in the second Trump assassination attempt, to Fort Bragg based on his numerous visits to the base. The failure of the attempt is characterized as a potential "last ditch effort" by deep state actors to handle a political problem off the books.

jsoc· delta force· ryan wesley routh· donald trump· fort bragg· stanley mcchrystal· assassination attempt

14:13 It's the largest one too. It's 251 square miles, they have two airfields there it's massive. It's in North Carolina this is where special operations assets are stationed you have the U.S Army Forces Command, US Army Reserves Command, US Army Special Operations Commands there 82nd Airborne is their third special forces group Delta Force is there JSOC is their Joint Special Operations Command And also, US Army Special Forces which is essentially like American Gladio and that's Green Berets. And we just talked about what they're into but for those who are unfamiliar with what JSOC is, JSOC is the President's Private Kill Squad. That's the team that gets sent in when he wants something off the books and somebody to die which normally happens in foreign countries and this is like the Stanley McChrystals of the world these guys

15:07 It's very much like a Gladio, like elite special forces that they'll send off to not everybody. Of course there are 60,000 people that are part of JSOC but the core unit, Delta Force, they answer to the president. That doesn't go up the chain of command to Congress this is where if you want to get something done off the records, that's how you would do it It's worth noting that the golf course Trump shooter, Ryan Wesley Routh visited Fort Bragg 147 times and stayed overnight 29 times. And so I have to think if you're Joe Biden, if you go back in a time machine to the summer when Trump is getting shot at and Biden's presidency is in shambles as future as the nominee is sure to come to an end pretty soon he can't even find his way off of stage

15:53 And next thing you know, a guy who is associated with Fort Bragg and JSOC. This Ryan Wesley Rout all of a sudden decides that he's going to shoot at Donald Trump on the golf course. OK? Now they didn't send their best and brightest I think that if you had sent Delta Force we would have had Trump's funeral four days later but this guy has connections to it so it felt very much like last ditch effort You know, let's have this group over there tidy up the problem and maybe take a shot at him. And then if he gets caught... If he's successful? Great! If he's unsuccessful then we just brand him as an unhinged lunatic." Yeah they'll dig into his past and they'll find some of this stuff but it will just throw our hands up and say well we didn't send them I mean He hated Donald Trump what do you want us to do? A lot of people hate Donald. Do you want us to drag everybody down to the police station who hates Donald Trump who has a problem with him? Hell it would be here all for the rest of year so

16:48 This is how these things start to go. It's easy to, in retrospect you can build this case and you can look back and go oh my God it was so obvious that these guys are connected but like you said trying to call it in advance into recognize what will happen before it happens that way more difficult to do but if you know what you're looking for live exercises as you mentioned That's a huge indicator. And when I think about the live exercises, the exercises that are drill but then the drill goes live then I go to Boston bombing and things like that where you have over-the-loud speaker you hear it You can hear The guy on the loudspeaker saying this is a drill This is a drill over and over again right so

17:28 We're not conspiracy theorists, we're conspiracy analysts. We're analyzing actual conspiracies that are happening all the time and this is one of them and when the fourth PSYOP group of the Army's psych warfare unit decides that they're going to run an ad saying that we're everywhere and all the world's a stage well when events like this kick off and they have fingerprints of this group all over it It's reasonable for us to ask the question, was this one of the events that they told us was coming? It's really not even that complicated. The problem I find usually is just skepticism of the system. There are those who are skeptical, there are those who aren't and those who aren't don't ask any questions but if you are skeptical of the news coverage and these kinds of events, the pieces are not that hard to put together. As you're saying they basically put out an advertisement that says we do this kind of things and then these things happen and you don't apply it to individual event

CHAPTER 05 / 15 Discussion

Cybertruck Manifesto, Sean Ryan and China Drone Claims

The manifesto associated with the Cybertruck incident, which claims China is operating anti-gravity drones off the U.S. coast, is scrutinized for potential misdirection. The suspect, Matthew Littlesburg, is revealed to be a Special Forces officer with a history of deployments in Ukraine and Afghanistan. Skepticism is expressed regarding the FBI's quick verification of the manifesto and its promotion on the Sean Ryan Show.

sean ryan· matthew littlesburg· china· anti-gravity drones· fbi· sam shoemate· cybertruck

18:33 It's all right there. And I don't think we need to go as deep on the Cybertruck story, but the major thing we should talk about is the manifesto that apparently says all the drones over these coasts are China's anti-gravity drones that can attack anyone any place. I just talked to another guy about this. It's funny that the subreddit for UFOs was all about the Cybertruck conspiracy event and then the conspiracy subreddit was all about The potential of ufo is it's like the wires got crossed and those groups are usually pretty separate not around here but you know i read that they're kind of separate and.

19:09 This manifesto was apparently sent to Sam Shoemate who allegedly previously faked some emails about Ukraine funding so his track record isn't exactly great. So they say, you know this is third hand I'm not saying anything here i'm just reading and he goes on the Sean Ryan show to talk about it and the FBI comes out and says yes we have reason to believe that manifesto is genuine and legitimate Which is really odd for them to do, because they never confirm anything. Especially front-loading a podcast appearance like, hey we got to get out there and make our announcement that this thing is going to be genuine... I don't know just something seems off with that whole manifesto story and the Sean Ryan reveal? What do you think did you look into this thread at all?

19:57 Well, I was looking into the guy himself Matthew Littlesburg. The guy who apparently was involved in this he's a non commissioned officer in the Army Special Forces. He served in Afghanistan at the same time as Shamsuddin Jabbar, the guy from New Orleans. So this is little burgers track record. He was in Afghanistan from 2008 to 2010 He was in the Congo in 2014. He was in Ukraine in 2016, he was in Tajikistan at the tail end of 2016. He went back to Afghanistan for two years from 2017-2019. He was in the country of Georgia in 2021 and then he was in Las Vegas in 2025 on approved leave which I get you know, I mean it's sheep dip Tim McVeigh sort of nature comes to mind when I think about some

20:51 So this is a guy who spent quite a bit of time in some dangerous places, as you do when your special forces. It's tempting to think well he would know right? I mean if anyone would know about these sort of weird technologies it would be some guy whose in the Special Forces but... When you start saying its China, ya'know, I go well that feels like misdirection to me Maybe there are drones and maybe there are things that can do what he's talking about. But when they start saying, well it's China and it's been here for a while... First of all I feel like they're trying to demonize China which-I'm not saying that China isn't up to no good. I'm sure they're doing everything they can to try and subvert us to the extent that they could And if they had drones like that would they park them off the East Coast? I don't know maybe but I just don't think that a manifesto

21:44 From a sketchy guy who has special forces in Fort Bragg ties is going to be enough for me to say well you know let's take that one to the bank i mean sounds reasonable to me and especially with the guys is going to go on sean ryan podcast you know he's ex-cia. But in my book xca always cia don't leave the agency, Not unless you're going to work in some other capacity, which is I left the CIA and now i'm gonna start this podcast. Hey does his YouTube podcast get demonetized and strikes like ours? Did we sign up for the wrong YouTube channel when we set up ours because he seems to have no problem talking about all these things but you and I boy...I mean uh..i don't even have a youtube channel anymore because i was shown

CHAPTER 06 / 15 Discussion

Mainstream Alternative Media, Intelligence Agency Infiltration

The rise of "mainstream alternative media" is analyzed as a new iteration of Operation Mockingbird, where intelligence-connected figures dominate the podcasting space. High production values, in-person interviews, and rapid algorithmic growth are cited as indicators of state backing. The theory suggests that agencies allow 90% truth to be told while inserting 10% critical misdirection to skew public perception.

sean ryan· operation mockingbird· youtube· algorithm· ray mcgovern· mike pompeo· alternative media

22:31 just exactly how much they appreciated my content, and now all of a sudden it's got the CIA stamp of approval on it. I don't know. Color me a bit suspicious on this one." Right? And I really think this kind of stuff is little thorny because there are people who make the claim that if you're above a certain level then you're clearly compromised and they'll loop me into that kinda group I don't know. There's a very big difference between someone who has never been able to monetize on YouTube, has 100,000 subscribers sure but can't get 500 views on a video. It's just like clearly it is algorithmically suppressed and I don't care. YouTube can do what they want. I try to play outside of their pool but there is definitely a difference between someone who had

23:15 Has kind of an unnatural rise all their guests are kinda connected it's an ex-cia guy who is interviewing xca guys and military outguys you're coming on the show to reveal the big secrets. It's like, I don't know. That's not super genuine also someone who does the interviews in person? Like if you really think out the logistics of that every week you have someone sitting down with you in person that you've flown out from like it requires a pretty big infrastructure to do that kind of thing. I'm always skeptical of the end person shows and just the team that has to put all that together because it doesn't really work that way And I have nothing against Sean Ryan exactly.

24:02 sketchy barometer goes off you know i am like a sad people say that about me so it don't like to love the same criticism, add other people but im also trying to back up my point a little bit more and show the difference. But sean ryan when this happened he first said he has family we're gonna go into hiding over there reveal any posted this is set over the past few days something's become very apparent to me everyone claims to want truth transparency and disclosure unless they are not part of it and then If they're not a part of it, they'll stop at nothing to try and destroy everything you've ever done. No matter how good or how much truth their ego will consume their entire mind and eventually their entire existence humanity is in a sad state." And I'm just like boo hoo dude! It sounds like gaslighting 101 this isn't a jealousy thing i'm doing fine

24:54 It's all the things i mentioned the unnatural growth doing everything in person putting your twitter profile that you are xcia if u r a former cia contractor, Then you should be the first one to know about psyops and media infiltration. Is this mockingbird media in the podcasting space? Because you shouldn't be surprised of anyone's skepticism if you're saying, hey I'm part of the machine sometimes one foot in one foot out like why are you surprised people are skeptical He should not be surprised. I don't know that he truly is surprised that people are skeptical, you can't be in that world and then leave it and then say oh i've left all of this behind well the amount of resources required to get into the CIA they spend money on training you put through your entire career

25:50 there are very few people, maybe Ray McGovern. I don't know. Maybe there's very few people that I can find like that used to be in the CIA that I would listen to in terms of what they have to say now on the one hand they're in a position to know things that other people wouldn't know. I get that but when you're doing 90% truth 10 bullshit then That's all you need to skew his story and say...I mean what if the manifesto or the email that the guy wrote about drones off of the east coast of the USA. What if all of that was true, except the China part? And it was only one lie in a sea of other information and instead of China it was actually I don't know Israel or Pakistan or whoever right that would make all the difference in the world so you can give everybody a tonne of truth and throw one

26:40 tiny error in one slight misdirection in there and it skews everything and these people are taught that they're trained how to like. Mike pompeo bragged about when we go through school the CIA teach you how to lie so, This goes to what David Icke is talking about, the mainstream alternative media. This new segment that's popped up and you look at the mainstream media with MSNBC and CNN in their ratings are in the toilet after this election. And the gaslighting from them has been astronomical over the last four years with COVID and the Biden administration and all of that.

CHAPTER 07 / 15 Discussion

Podcast Funding, Censorship and the Tim Pool Situation

The financial structures of popular podcasts are questioned, specifically referencing the Tenant Media controversy involving Tim Pool and Benny Johnson. The discussion highlights how certain "trusted sources" like Lex Fridman or Ben Shapiro receive promotion while independent voices face suppression. It is noted that mainstream figures like Tucker Carlson are eventually allowed to discuss topics like Ivermectin only after the initial narrative control window has closed.

tim pool· benny johnson· tenant media· ben shapiro· lex fridman· tucker carlson· ivermectin

27:18 I don't know why anybody turns on the television any longer and gets their news there. And I think that there's a calculation that's been made by these intelligence agencies that say, all right we can't run Operation Mockingbird on television like we used to but doesn't mean we can't run it in the podcast world in some sort of new fangled version where we then influence these shows or we allow these shows to grow Sprinkle magic dust on the shows and they magically get a hundred thousand viewers within their first year which is completely. Antithetical to anybody who's ever grown up podcast knows that there's just not possible unless it's being made to happen so i'm really think of it the way you put it which is the live shows but yet alive show me this sort of,

28:05 Budget that needs to happen and infrastructure in planning and sorting it all about I mean we do that on our shows and we understand what goes into that but to fly people in all the time well you have to have money to do that. In your sponsors aren't gonna just give me money before your show is successful unless you're being made to succeed because of it and so, I think it's the new area that people need to keep their eyes on is this mainstream alternative media and you gotta make sure that the people that your. watching or listening to, you have to almost kind of dig into where they get their money. Of course we saw this in the last six months with the Tim Pool situation and the Benny Johnson and all this it's like well we were getting money from tenant media and we didn't know where that money was coming from and we didn't maybe do the best job digging into where it's coming from and a case can be made that

28:56 Hey, listen. They didn't have to pay me for my opinions. These are my opinions regardless." They happen to be paying me and you might think that these are my opinions that I'm being bought but in actuality, I feel this way regardless. I might as well take the money because I can understand how they would justify that to themselves. But the minute your audience starts to think that you might be compromised... Oh That's just too hard. It's so difficult to recover from that, I think your credibility is everything and I don't know that it would be worth it if you were an authentic person that was genuinely trying to do the best job you could with your show. I don't know how you can play that game and take money from those big corporations and not expect even if you don't get

29:47 Pressure from them how do you not expect your audience to just assume that you're getting pressure from them right because they're giving you money after all. So the money in that side of things can skew it And we as content creators are always extremely concerned and aware of our reputation because it's the most valuable thing we have. If somebody wants to come in and offer you a bunch of money, my initial response would be very suspicious about that. Yes yes! You can even look at like Ben Shapiro company, you might consider that part of the mainstream alternative media

30:23 It's like well there is big money behind that for sure and of course they will criticize everyone but Israel. And it's like Israel deserves a little bit of criticism these days for sure so sometimes it is about just protecting one group, it's like no go ahead talk truth about like you say 90 in 10 talk truth about so many things to build the credibility on this one thing you never go there and thats kind of How a lot of these things operate and it's not even about the money i mean it is partly about the money applying people in for in person interviews but its like people who are good interviews people who you want to interview their busy people they have lives they. Are gonna just take two days out of their life to come fly where you are to do a couple hour interview,

31:09 I struggle sometimes to get people to do two hours because they're like, I can do a bunch of podcasts that only want an hour from me. And it's like yeah i mean i'm just asking you to get on zoom It's just one of those things like every week on a schedule You just have people who fly to you? It seems like a machine! It seems like a...I don't wanna say propaganda machine but im saying propaganda machine It seems that way Nobody's gonna convince me that people get on an airplane to go have a conversation with Lex Friedman because he's interesting to talk to. The guy will put you to sleep. Shots fired! The fact that, that guy has a podcast that is automatically suggested to me every time I open up YouTube for some reason even though don't watch it makes me a little bit suspicious and again i can understand how some people would say well your just jealous of this no i would love to have

31:58 the sort of viewership numbers, but I'm not willing to do the kinds of things that you need to do in order to get that. I just can't do it! I wouldn't feel good about myself and if YouTube all of a sudden took a real interest in me and wanted to promote my show man...I would be extremely suspicious of that as well because they've spent the last eight years telling us that they hate us and they don't want our content there and they wanna ban us for certain words yet you view that unbalanced situation and you go, well why is that guy allowed to say it? Well you know he's a trusted source. Well is that because he has connections that are valuable to YouTube to keep in play as I mean YouTube is obviously

32:40 Google and google is a military contractor and we understand the role of silicon valley, add the military in how these. Platforms have come to be we can understand the origin story of facebook we know that it was a cia In Qtel project that went live. So I don't know why we would ever really be truly surprised that we're being suppressed when you've got a platform like Facebook, that will throw you off there if you question ivermectin or vaccines or Israel or Sandy Hook or whatever. You name the polarizing topic, if you start to cover it, you'll get dinged

33:18 Let me rephrase that. If you start to cover it too early, you'll get dinged but then there becomes a time at which a couple years down the road then the topic is safe for discussion and Tucker Carlson can talk about it and somebody else who's a little bit more mainstream they can all of sudden have the conversation. You know Ivermectin? I have questions about Ivermectin. It's like shit we had questions about in 2020! You wouldn't let us have the conversation. You shut us down and now all of sudden Tucker Carlson can have that conversation... Good i'm glad that you're finally talking about it for what its worth it's a little late but i'm glad you're talking about in general can we do this moving forward where your not stopping on us because were early and when your earlier always look crazy, you know how does when you start talking about these things eighteen months before everybody else.

34:07 they wanna fit you for a straight jacket but then, your two goes by and it's starting to get mainstream traction and all of the sudden you're waiting for the apologies that will never come. Yeah good points in mainstream alternative media is just great term why wouldn't be there are the old media system is collapsing you have to come in with something else I don't want this to sound like a pity party for us but it's just like pay attention to who gets thrown right at the top of the pile routinely and their production value and, that things they say that's all but moving on you know talking about what happened on new years thats.

CHAPTER 08 / 15 Discussion

Los Angeles Wildfires, Government Incompetence and DEI

The devastating wildfires in Pacific Palisades and Southern California are attributed to a combination of environmental factors and malicious government incompetence. The "Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion" (DEI) hiring practices of officials like Mayor Karen Bass are criticized for prioritizing identity over merit in emergency management. The discussion suggests that incompetent leadership is intentionally installed to facilitate the "controlled demolition" of infrastructure.

pacific palisades· karen bass· gavin newsom· dei· california· wildfires· pg&e

34:46 Might as well be ancient history at this point. I mean, we're 10 days into a new year things are happening so fast that is yesterday's news today's news is all about the LA fires obviously I lived in California for a decade there are fires every year and the news is really great about making it seem like the whole area is just completely destroyed when it's really a lot more spotty than its presented And I just know this from friends and family who didn't live in California always calling me every year like, are you okay? Are you okay. Yeah, i'm okay for like a 50 mile radius maybe there's more land out here than you think but this one does seem a little bit different man the things i see from a bird's eye view maybe it's because i am seeing that through the media lens for the first time rather than being present

35:38 But it seems different in terms of size and scope. What are your thoughts? I lived in California for 30 years, I was born there my best friend lost his house and Pacific Palisades he was so proud. I feel like I wanted to throw up when I was texting him Are you okay is going to miss you And he said It's gone I said Oh! It's gone past you or are you okay? Are you out of the line of fire He said no No Everything good has gone I lost my house and I thought oh My God Another friend of mine who I'd grown up with, she lost her house. My wife's college friend lost their house. I mean, this is happening all over the place in Los Angeles for those that aren't familiar with the area where Pacific Palisades is it sort of in between Santa Monica and Malibu It's a beautiful place It's in the canyons part of the reason why people With a lot of money want to live there because The topography is amazing you know You get changes and elevations And its really

36:37 interesting neighborhood and yeah there's a lot of celebrities that live there i think that gets most of the headlines but it is mostly just working people, people who have worked and done really well want to live in a place thats beautiful and convenient for them. And you know we saw the Maui fires what happened there and its a combination Government, well I don't even want to call it incompetence. It's malice because it's more intentional decisions that get made by these officials talking about where the water goes and if we remember Maui they turned on the hydrants and nothing came out either so

37:16 The water gets cut off political decisions at least in california some of the decisions were made with what they did with the rainwater and they didn't fill the reservoirs because there's a endangered fish that likes when it's half salt water and half fresh water, who cares about fish you're in southern california place that burns all the time. with PG&E, the electric company who's been involved in fires campfire which killed a ton of people and others. They're always at the forefront of this Gavin Newsom had a crew in his office rewrite some legislation to protect them moving forward course because why wouldn't you protect that power company who is responsible for the deaths of I think 80 people in the camp fire? Yeah well it's not

38:06 increase our spend on fire mitigation, let's protect Pacific Gas and Electric because they contribute to my campaign. So we've got to take care of them first." There are decisions that are made on a state level or local level and there is incompetence that is almost baked into the equation when you have Karen Bass running LA and Gavin Newsom running California these people terrible at their job to the point where you have to ask the question are they there because they're terrible at their job can't be based on. Merit because if it was on merit you'd find anybody else but it seems that they want the worst people there they want the most unqualified incompetent people so when things go wrong and they go wrong all the time whether accidentally or intentionally

38:58 They can then say, well we'll put it on Karen Bass and she'll stand in front of that microphone bank and people will be firing questions at her. She'll stand there like an idiot frozen for two minutes and not say a damn thing to anybody. You go these are our elected officials? I mean, I hope that this is a wake up call for the people of California in general and Southern California in particular Wildfires are not uncommon. Happening in January is not normal, but wildfires in and of themselves have always been part of it as somebody who lives in Southern California you just sort of plan accordingly for it. You do the best you can and put the fire breaks in and make sure that your defended property is protected as possible

39:45 They cut the budget for that stuff they cut the budget for the fire department they sent a bunch of equipment to Ukraine this is the type of things you do when you are running a banana republic not when your run in an actual country. It's trying to put it best foot forward and hiring the best and brightest represent the community know its, We've got to get a black woman to be the mayor of Los Angeles because there are so many black people in Southern California that we want them to feel like they're represented. Okay, fine! That's great I have no problem with that Is she the most qualified? Well, no. She's functionally retarded." Well then can we get a different black woman in there that I don't even care if it makes everybody feel better that she is of a particular race and gender or ethnicity or handicap or she ticks all the diversity boxes just gets somebody in there who actually knows what they're doing and wants to help people and wants to make things better but I take a look at this cast of characters especially in California you cant tell me

40:46 That they've been put in there because they're the best. They have been putting their because they are controllable, they won't ask tough questions and when things go wrong you can count on them to fail and fail upwards which is what's happened through all of california i mean We almost got a president of the United States who had failed upwards through the chain of command in California for 25 years, who has nothing on her resume except one catastrophe after another. And she was damn near the president of the United States. So unfortunately for people like Karen Bass and Gavin Newsom and Chessa Bowden, who is the district attorney

41:25 of San Francisco who implemented the, you know you can steal anything $950 or less and it's fine. We're not going to do anything these people they're not incompetent accidentally they're incompetent on purpose they're there because their broken people right? And those are great points and I never I can't say I never thought about it this way but maybe not at the scale and scope but the DEI thing just being like you have to have a sales pitch you have have a positive way to do something negative a lot of the time so if you're trying to exacerbate disasters and do something like the title your book that control demolition of the american empire when u. Put out an operation or use a weather weapon,

CHAPTER 09 / 15 Discussion

Infrastructure Failures, Toxic Smoke and Dry Hydrants

Reports of dry fire hydrants during the Los Angeles fires are compared to similar failures during the Maui disaster. The CEO of the LA Department of Water and Power, Janice Quinones, and Mayor Karen Bass are criticized for their lack of presence and answers during the crisis. Additionally, the environmental impact of burning modern homes—releasing toxins from plastics and electronics—is highlighted as a major health hazard for residents.

janice quinones· monica perez· la department of water and power· fire hydrants· toxic chemicals· ghana

42:11 You don't want competent people to shut it down quickly you want incompetent people to make the mess way worse and how do you get that well you gotta sell it maybe with the d.i. it's kinda like the whole immigration thing, The news does not separate immigrants from illegal immigrants. They just say they're migrants and they're refugees, and it's like no a lot of people are totally fine with immigration. It's the border being open in the illegal immigration that people are not cool with. And the fact that you can't separate the two and you try to just paint everyone as some racist bigot...

42:46 i mean that's telling and you can say that this is kinda the same template the d.i. template of getting incompetent people into positions of power just to make things fall apart faster, She's the LA Department of Water and Power CEO, Janice Quinones. She apparently makes 750K a year and when she was asked why the water was out she didn't really know! She's not quite sure even though she's in charge of the department of water then yeah... The African mayor Karen Bass is in Ghana during all this it's like not even present and

43:22 I think we saw was the police chief who is being interviewed and she won't even speak. She's absolutely frozen. It's like, wow! These are the people who were in charge of this stuff and just like the barriers not being up in New Orleans why are the fire hydrants dry? Everything has set in place to not be able to handle the problem when the can is kicked over and it's sad to hear that so many people have lost their homes My first guest of the year was my day out and she emailed me earlier just to say that her house is gone i saw posts from our mutual friend monica perez it looks like your house is there but the fire was right up on a driveway and her whole neighborhood is largely destroyed

44:13 Even if your house is still standing there's a lot of pieces to pick up and the smoke you know people are like oh don't breathe the smoke it's like well of course not but also. These houses are burned in the ground think about all the plastic and toxic bullshit, and styrofoam and just all that nutty stuff that are in people's homes or tvs melting and all the chemicals that releases yeah you need to get the hell out of their What do you think about the weather weapons angle? I mean, this always pops up every time but we have seen pictures of houses burnt to the ground trees still standing. The blue trash cans sitting there like there's nothing wrong with them. And blue was a big thing before, like the directed energy weapons for some reason avoid blue things strange, like something in the paint but what are your thoughts on some of those ideas that this was? A weather weapon and not just the natural thing and then the added incompetence

CHAPTER 10 / 15 Discussion

Directed Energy Weapons, Maui Parallels and Insurance Pullouts

The possibility of Directed Energy Weapons (DEW) being used in California is discussed, citing anomalies like houses burning while nearby trees and blue plastic trash cans remain untouched. Parallels are drawn to the Maui fires, noting that insurance companies like State Farm pulled out of the California market shortly before the disasters. The timing of these fires during the winter season is presented as a significant red flag for artificial weather manipulation.

directed energy weapons· dew· maui· blue trash cans· state farm· arson· weather weapons

45:08 Now that you mentioned Karen Bass being in Ghana when this went down, wasn't the governor of Hawaii out of the country as well? When the Maui fires hit I think he was conveniently elsewhere. The situation in Maui first of all if you complied You died If you were somebody trying to escape that on the road and the cops were turning you around the people that listened to the police and went back didn't make it. It's only the people who disobeyed the orders that were able to get out from that road, and of course you dig into it in the aftermath and you go well what was going on there? We're hearing all these questions about directed energy is this are we just making something out of nothing? Well Maui is one of the two directed energy facilities that they're testing all this stuff based there in Maui so it's reasonable to think that I'm suspicious of these five...I mean on the one hand

45:58 Southern California has fires, right? So it provides the cover story needed. You could say well, fires do happen there and you go oh yeah I know they do. I mean I can't say that they don't but when i see the aftermath of a row of houses that are all burnt to the ground and out in front right at the curb there's a blue trashcan and it didn't melt and I know it's made out of plastic because I got a trash can looks just like that in my garage I start to ask questions when I see in Maui that certain trees were not burning and others were burning from the inside. That's very suspicious, we saw pictures of that going on in Pacific Palisades as well where trees look like they were erupting from inside, they were burning on the inside. I don't know how that works, I'm not an expert in fire maybe somebody can set me straight and say well that's sort of a normal thing, maybe it is but

46:49 It's abnormal for it to be happening all at the same time in different spots. And I know that there is currently somebody that got arrested last night for arson, who was involved in setting some fires. I don't know if that is a copycat situation. I don't know if that is plausible deniability, some setup where they stick some guy out there and say hey light this thing on fire or give you $1,000 bucks if you do it and then he gets caught and you can say see? It's arson! It's just human beings doing stupid things. It's certainly not satellites or drones or whatever but we know the technology exists We know that there are drones that spray fire

47:26 because they use them to start backfires, legitimate backfires that the fire department is trying to start in order to do controlled burns. We know that they've used drones, flamethrower drones that are very scary looking now. Is that something that the fire department uses for starting backfires? Or is it possible that technology can also be owned by somebody else who wants to start fires and qui bono who benefits from this what's going on I knew a couple months ago that state farm and multiple insurance companies had made the calculation that doing business in california was no longer profitable for them and they decided they were gonna drop coverage for a lot of these places, in southern california and to me i didn't actually get suspicious when i heard that i actually thought.

48:16 I don't blame them. If you have to deal with the state of California and the insurance regulations and everything that comes with it, I almost can't blame any company for wanting to leave California at this point because to do business there is becoming increasingly more difficult but when i see that it happens real fast afterwards... not fire season winter not that southern california has a traditional winter like everybody else But it's not 95 degrees with Santa Ana winds like you get in August, it's winter and we're getting Santa Ana winds there. The timing seems off to me." And you couple that with the fact that the insurance companies pulled out in advance and you ask the question is that did they know something that we didn't know? Or did they just think that doing business in California was so

49:10 What is with all the regulations and restrictions that are put on it by these woke morons in sacramento that run the state running poorly. Is this a business calculation or is something more than that hopefully will figure out what's going on as of the recording of this you're still on fire, The fires haven't been put out yet, so we're going to have to do a post-mortem on this whole event in the aftermath. And again the media will do what it always does which is make a big deal out of it right now for a couple of days and as soon as its over 72 hours later it'll be out of the news cycle and they'll be onto something else like they are I mean

49:49 You don't think that the Maui people are all doing fine? They're just not getting coverage anymore. So, the assumption is well I don't hear about them anymore so everything must be sort of sorted out there. Well it's not sorted out they're all still having major problems and my heart broke for Maui because That was such an important place for me. It's a place I had been going as a kid when my dad passed away, when I was 16. My mom and I... it was obviously rough. And it happened over Thanksgiving back in 88'. When we got to Christmas break, my mom said, We need to get out of town. Where do you want to go? So we've gone to Maui before and we really liked

50:32 And my dad really liked it and maybe we should go to Maui and lick our wounds there for two weeks. and get out of town. And so I have an association with Maui there, been going back and forth. I spent my 50th birthday we were there. I took my daughter who had never been... We were in Lahaina. We did all the shopping. We had dinner at Kimo's and did the things that you do when you go there. It was such a fantastic place. Then a couple months later that happened. If it's an authentic organic sort of fire that just kind of broke out and everything then that would be one thing but given our level of understanding about what's really going on, and you find that this is being done intentionally and you have questions about smart cities. And my heart breaks for all those people that were affected by it but through no fault of their own. I wonder if they're going to... You know, I wonder if the people of Southern California are gonna wake up after this and say we have allowed incompetent leadership to take hold of our state and run it into the ground? Even if you take out the directed energy component

51:33 even if you've set that off to the side, just the fire mitigation component that could have easily been put in place and should have been in place and was in place. And Gavin Newsom withdrew it and made it so these areas were more susceptible to fire risk. That is a crime. So even if these victims never connect all the dots, even if they just Connect one dot which is government incompetence or maliciousness however you want to frame it Was responsible for setting the stage for something like this where it could happen or could accelerate that in and of itself It should be enough to get people to start thinking about the representative officials in a different way But of course in Southern California, maybe not maybe after being a blue state for all these years

52:23 They're just resigned to their fate that they're going to have Democratic leadership in there. And I'm no Republican either, but Democratic leadership who's focusing on what gender the fire truck is rather than making sure that there are fire trucks that are on the scene Right and again it's like if the system wasn't always lying to us about everything we wouldn't have to jump to conclusions, we wouldn't have to be immediately skeptical if they didn't have this climate change program that they're trying to jam down our throats when their line about things. We wouldn't have to connect the dots and say, well this seems like it kind of fits with the picture you're trying to paint. The picture you're trying really hard to paint that isn't naturally coming together for you. Seems like this might be part of it but we're going a little over I love talking to before we go, we got to talk about why we do the dance and do the promotion stuff

CHAPTER 11 / 15 Discussion

Activist Post Acquisition, Anarchapulco Conference 2025

Charlie Robinson details his acquisition of Activist Post and Natural Blaze, emphasizing a commitment to providing "solutions" and parallel systems rather than just reporting problems. He promotes the upcoming Anarchapulco conference in Mexico, describing it as a hub for sovereign skills, crypto, and health wellness. The event features speakers like Gareth Icke and provides a networking space for those looking to live outside traditional government structures.

activist post· anarchapulco· acapulco· david icke· max egan· solutions· parallel systems

53:17 So you got activist posts now, you got natural blaze. We could all use trusted information sources outside of the social media fire hose and the mainstream media and the alternative mainstream media. Talk to people about these websites other things you've got going on give them the AnarchoPoco pitch I mean... The list is long! You're an active guy! I have created a ton of work for myself that is true Activist Post was just one of those synchronistic type things. I got an email from the owners in July 2024 saying, we've been doing this for 15 years and we're ready to transition into something else but we've built these great platforms, Activist Post, Natural Blaze, and we don't want them to go away. We would love for somebody who's ideologically aligned with us to carry on the work. Would you be interested? And I said no

54:10 And then I waited about 48 hours and then I thought, you know when the universe presents you with an opportunity sometimes your job is to act on it. I thought about it and I can't afford not to do it. Activist Post has been an important part of my life. I've been reading them for 10 years and I thought I could do this So we made the decision, I agreed to buy the company and one of the things that I wanted to do is rebuild the website. Been in existence for 15 years kind of an older site wanted the new one to work really well on mobile and to be secure because everybody's on their phone so it flies on mobile

54:50 But I didn't build an app, didn't want to centralize control into an app store in either the Apple ecosystem or Google. Too easy for them to say no to it." I watched that happen with Zero Hedge and so if anyone's interested they can bookmark activist posts on their phone and just get to it that way. So there's not going to be an app. That's not because I don't want to build one for convenience is because I don't want to build one because it's too easy to centralize the censorship into that. It launched January 1st. I'm the new editor over there, I get to curate the content and pick the articles that I think are important. We've got eight categories there one of the categories that was extremely important is solutions

55:27 We do a good job of complaining about the problems out there, but if we don't offer solutions what good are we? So that's part of it that I wanted to make sure that people had an opportunity to go there and not just read about some of the dire things that are happening worldwide. But also have a path towards getting themselves out of this system to the extent they can. And part of that also It fits with the overall, all the work I'm doing. I'll be in Mexico and Acapulco middle of February for Anarchapulco, the 11th annual largest anarchist conference in the world that happens every year on Acapulco, Mexico is fantastic. It's five days. Every day is a different topic. Day one fuck the government day to health and wellness day three crypto day four sovereign skills you know? I watched an amazing presentation about ancient trees

56:15 When I'm done emceeing and I go sit in the stands with my notebook and just take notes, and I get to meet everybody that's there all the speakers. It's a fantastic place. I really encourage people if you've got the opportunity to get there in the next couple of weeks, you should go. Listen, there are worse places to be than Mexico in February it's beautiful there But more so than that, it's very inspiring. You're around people that are actually doing things that aren't just complaining but they're actually building outside of the system. They're not interested in fixing the current system by the way. They have no interest in doing that what they're doing is they're building parallel systems that are outside of it

56:52 So, if you want to get connected with people it's very international in scope. If you can make it go! If you can't, you can stream it and watch from home and it's like the all-star weekend of the alternative media everybody is there I had one of the coolest experiences last year where we We opened the first day of it, the first interview we did with David Icke. He wasn't able to be there in person but i was able to interview him remotely. I was on the stage he was behind me on the massive big screen And then I had a live audience with all the people and we'd ask them, get your questions fill out your questionnaire. And so I had all the questions that the audience wanted to ask David. So I was conducting the interview asking the question while I had my shirt on my IKEA shirt like the yellow IKEA shirt but it had the logo on it instead It was a trip man I felt like I was having an out of body experience because in 2019 My first year there

57:49 I had a chance to sit front row and watch David Icke do a four-hour presentation that was fantastic. And for me to go from that position there, and I met him during that trip, we've stayed in contact over the years, the Ikes have been very good to me... For me then have the opportunity to interview him on this stage was a huge thrill for me So this year we got Gareth Ickleby out there! There's a whole lot of characters, i encourage people to go to anarchapulco.com and see what you think. And if you find something that you like, if you're interested in going use the discount code macro, it'll save you some money but come on out and enjoy it during the day. Then at night we'll go to Max Egan's bar he's got a Casa de los Cuervos right down the street, The Crow House

58:30 It's where everyone goes at night. You can sit out there, they got live music you can have a beer smoke and join out in the patio nobody gives a shit it's fantastic place it'll renew your faith in humanity I'll tell you that when you get done after that week and you get on the plane and you're leaving you're going to have a network of people that you can reach out to you might even be thinking about relocating somewhere else and you're going to restore your faith that there are good people out there, very smart people that are tired of dealing with the government. And they have decided that they're more qualified to handle things than they think the government is. So they're building outside of the system and it is very inspiring so I encourage people to go check it out. And of course macroaggressions

CHAPTER 12 / 15 Discussion

Personal Loss, Macro Aggressions 500th Episode

Charlie Robinson shares the personal story of his mother's passing following a 90-day battle with stage 4 pancreatic cancer. He describes spending her final days in Las Vegas, reflecting on the experience in the 500th episode of his podcast. This personal transition coincided with his takeover of Activist Post, marking a new chapter in his life and work.

pancreatic cancer· las vegas· macro aggressions· stage 4 cancer· medical diagnosis

59:09 the podcast. We celebrated our 500th episode, I put that out a couple of weeks ago that was an episode that was about my mom had a rough 2024 with her as i came to Las Vegas to be with her for a medical diagnosis which turned into a stage 4 pancreatic cancer diagnosis in a 90-day window and so I spent the last 98 days of her life with her and helped her with that transition. What a humbling and amazing experience that was, obviously very sad but we watched funny movies at night we ate ice cream even though you know ice cream kind of fuels cancer but when your mom asks for ice cream you get her ice cream you know what I mean so we did that and we had a great time and we said everything that needed to be said and when I listened to all her stories that I'd heard a million times before

1:00:04 And I was there with her when she passed away, and I feel like that was the end of one chapter of my life. I knew that Activist Post was going to be kicking off a couple weeks later And now I'm in the new chapter. So, I encourage people who are interested in getting news from a place that's not going to get censored tell you that right now because I'm in charge of it and so if you like what you see there please I'm asking you nicely share the content with other people just share it that's all you need to do just find something you like put it on social media or send it to a group of people that might benefit from it and that's how we keep this thing going. And I appreciate you having me back on Greg as always, I enjoy and really look forward to our conversations. Oh yeah man! I wish we did it more often...I tend to just wait until someone has a book, you know? You're always writing too but the news was stacking up and I was excited to hear about you buying those papers- digital papers I guess

1:01:01 But yeah, I was like we got some things to talk about and it is always a pleasure. And it's always sad to lose someone you're close to especially apparent when you got young kids and that story that relationship is kind of over but all we can ever ask for us to make sure we say all the things that we want to say nothing goes on said if you get that time with a person who still has their faculties they don't live forever so Sad, but you know I'm glad you got that with your mom. So yeah man it's tough out there But thanks for taking the time we covered some great stories in just the first two weeks of a new Probably very crazy year. I'm lucky to know ya best of luck at The New Ventures Thanks for stopping in thanks for having me Yes, there We go a return-to-form For THC with just the guy to get us there

CHAPTER 13 / 15 Discussion

Post-Show Analysis, UFO Disclosure Skepticism

Greg Carlwood reflects on the emotional toll of the rapid news cycle and the lack of empathy for California residents. He briefly addresses the "UFO disclosure" news scheduled for the day, expressing skepticism about any information coming from military whistleblowers. He also provides an update on the Gasparilla children's parade in Tampa, hoping for an uneventful weekend despite the earlier discussed security concerns.

1:02:00 Man, the new cycle is really redlining everyone's attention just a couple of weeks into the New Year. I'm starting to feel like they really love to do that Sandy hook kind of hit around Christmas New Year's time and of course COVID was the start of 2020 especially in the last few years that new years new start ready-to-do it fresh energy just gets deflated by Couple of high-profile events and then it seems like a lot of people's emotional tank gets kind of drained And I understand, especially with what i've seen online there's probably not a lot of empathy for people living in LA. But you got to remember it is not just Hollywood celebrities and slimeball agents and creepy producers there are a lot of regular people who just grew up there. A lot of people willing to suffer the vow of poverty in their youth hoping to take a long shot at a dream

1:03:01 A dream I think is kind of fizzling out, but hey that isn't my problem. But i really shouldn't have to remind anyone that a city any city has millions of different people enduring many different life conditions... ...but I've just seen so many posts that are like fuck it let California burn this is what you get Those types of comments, it's like come on. So many people live in places where they loathe their leadership and the decisions that have been made but it's not in our power and many cities and states have cartoonish archetypal stereotypes about the people that live there but we all know that every kind of person lives every kind of place And this is the suffering of our fellow citizens

1:03:46 But I am glad we could both bring some stuff to the table when it comes to those New Year's events. Almost seems like ancient history already, but that Tampa event that is tangentially connected to the New Orleans guy Gasparilla... It's actually today! Well today is the children's parade my daughter walks in and tomorrow is the main drunk fest event. Fingers crossed it is uneventful. Let's hope there's nothing to worry about But yes, Charlie is a favorite. He really should be someone we talk to more frequently when we have these peak psychodrama periods he has such a great conspiratorial background that he can really put the pieces together quickly and apply the same old templates appropriately. He knows how to parse the story for what's important and what's probably bullshit We're on the same page with just a lot of stuff good guy

1:04:43 I feel like i was a little out of touch with what people were wanting the past couple weeks. At least that's what they told me, I liked both shows with Maja and Josh Kutchen and Ryan Grulick but in the context of a current events heavy jump start on the new year people were expressing to me that they would have rather had something more related to the news cycle- The old bread and butter conspiracy but I can only move so fast sometimes. But either way, we got to be pretty thorough and hope we said all the things that need to be said We didn't talk about UFO disclosure stuff very much not exactly Charlie's bag more of a Josh Kutchen thing but they're saying today is the big reveal new evidence expected new whistleblower some say they might even show materials or have footage of a craft retrieval

1:05:40 I don't hold my breath, i don't get all worked up. I don't even think that they're operating within the right paradigm or that I want disclosure to come from the military." They're clearly angling for something they always are but just figured since it was relevant that today seems to be that reveal keep an eye out you might hear a few interesting threads at least it's good from an analysis standpoint even if you don't take it all at face value But that said, really good first hour today. We tried to fit in a lot of stuff I tried to make sure it was front loaded with the good information the important stuff The Plus Show only adds more we talked about Operation Sea Spray which is maybe related to fog people see

CHAPTER 14 / 15 Discussion

Operation Sea Spray, Serratia Marcescens and Chiron Corporation

The discussion turns to Operation Sea Spray, a 1950 U.S. military experiment that sprayed Serratia marcescens bacteria over San Francisco. Carlwood links this history to modern contamination cases involving the Chiron Corporation and medical recalls. He further explores the esoteric naming of the Chiron Corporation, connecting it to the centaur of Greek mythology and the celestial body often used in astrological birth charts.

1:06:30 We got into the bird flu threats and the manipulation of the food supply, and the control of local farmers. And we talked about building parallel systems to empower the individual against that government overreach I do think the true revolution is more about just being self-sufficient and more independent from the big system But several things I found interesting in that second hour, sign up at the higher side chats.com or use the links right in the show notes join one of the longest running and most successful ad free podcasts ever. I'm going to start pitching it like that a little bit more because I do think I've earned it

1:07:09 The archive is 700 plus shows with 500 plus different unique guests. A lot of them are very timeless, they're all ad free interruption-free well edited there's a lot of value there and you can dip your toe in for eight bucks a month or just start with the seven day free trial come on in the waters fine What else? Oh yes, I did find a little more about that bacteria we talked about in the second hour. Cerelia marcescens or S. marcescens as they say As a reminder Operation Sea Spray was in 1950 and this says since 1950 S. marcescens has steadily increased as a cause of human infection

1:07:56 with many strains resistant to multiple antibiotics. The first indications of problems came with the influenza vaccine produced by Chiron Corporation in 2004, which involved S. marcescens contamination In early 2008 the FDA issued a nationwide recall of one lot of pre-filled heparin lock flush solution The heparon IV flush syringes had been found to be contaminated with esmarcessions which resulted in patient infections. The Center for Disease Control confirmed growth of esmarcession from several unopened syringes of the product It has been linked to 19 cases in Alabama hospitals in 2011 including 10 deaths All the patients involved were receiving total

1:08:48 Parenteral nutrition at the time. So basically getting IV fluids, 19 cases 10 dead bit of a coin flip if you got a syringe tainted with this bacteria but this is the same bacteria sprayed on San Francisco in Operation Sea Spray and what two random internet sources without much verification claim has been tested for in the chemical tasting fog people were experiencing recently But then I thought, Chiron? That's another one of those esoterically charged names. Well here is the deal with that! Chiron was notable throughout Greek mythology for his young nurturing nature His personal skills tend to match those of his foster father Apollo who taught the young centaur The art of medicine, herbs music archery hunting gymnastics and prophecy And made him rise above his beastly nature

1:09:45 Chiron was known for his knowledge and skill of medicine, and thus was credited with the discovery of botany and pharmacy—the science of herbs in medicine. Like Satyrs, Centaurs were notorious for being wild, lusty, overly indulgent drinkers, violent when intoxicated, and generally uncultured delinquents Chiron, by contrast was intelligent civilized and kind because he was not related directly to the other centaurs due to his parentage. He was the son of the Titan Kronos obviously aka Kronos obviously aka Saturn and the oceanid Valera man sometimes I'm just like what even is Greek mythology?

1:10:31 Also, if you've ever gotten a detailed birth chart they do sometimes incorporate the asteroid Chiron. Well it's actually a comet if you want to be technical but for some reason its called an asteroid in alot of the birth charts that I've seen but in terms of things that aren't planets that are incorporated into birth charts and also aren't the sun or moon Chiron is probably top of the list. I mean when we narrowed down that far things that aren't the sun and the moon or a planet it probably is the whole list. It's the only other thing that I've ever seen thrown into birth charts but i thought that was interesting another one of those names of a corporation that harkens back to those old metaphysical names and space but I love that Charlie is expanding his work trying some different things like Josh Kutchen producing a documentary on the last episode, I should do more outside

1:11:28 I don't know what that would be. Oh well, on the subject of The Last Show you know we always point out what it was rated by the plus people and Josh and Ryan picked up a 4.4 not bad it got a little scary for a minute but a 4.4 is a good recovery from the lower number that I saw a few days ago But I thought it was better than that. We really started cooking with gas when we got into the disclosure stuff and into the second hour, but the number doesn't lie! Before we go you know we like to hit the meetup calendar lay it out where THC fans are getting together

1:12:06 And here's what we got. First on deck is January 23rd at the Coral Tree in LA, hopefully that still going on make sure you check with the host and confirm January 25th Allentown Alchemists at McCall Collective Brewery in Allentown Pennsylvania We got the Conway Pub meet up on February 1st in Conway Washington and February 3rd Auckland New Zealand at Gail Braths Ale House February 8th, McCall Collective Taphouse in Berringsville, Pennsylvania. Still not sure if that's the same location with a different town name? February 10th, Santa Fe New Mexico, The Cava Meet and Greet at Roots & Leaves. February 15th H2 Booster in the Netherlands and then of course March 8th A meet up here in Tampa somewhere with me and Gordon still circling around the venue

1:12:59 We hit a couple dead ends as negotiations were taking place. One of the owners in particular got very concerned about what we might be talking about and you know whatever, we talk about taboo things if you're uncomfortable with it then probably this isn't a good fit but we will overcome! We will find something Also in February, as Charlie said AnarchoPoco Probably one of the biggest and most fun sounding last remaining conspiracy conferences on this island earth. An event I do wish i could go to and I really might try to make it more of a thing next year but use the coupon code MACRO if you plan to go this year Good stuff though bookmark his new ventures activist post at Natural Blaze

1:13:53 I hope we can at least support him by making those sites part of our news digestion routine. I know he will fill it up with good stuff and it's an ambitious undertaking, but I support the passion and the effort again just feel really lucky to know Charlie And to close this one out I wrote a song with lyrics inspired by Charlie's first book As is the case now, you can download these songs on the show page from the website if you want a copy. It's free for all! Just a silly little thing but I was just about to put this episode out with a song that i came up with playing off Charles and Charge but at the last second I realized how bad it was and started over... And now my three-year old is already singing this one so.... You're welcome kid take care! I've done my part

1:14:47 Your move, American Gladio operators weather weapon wielders and mainstream alternative media promoters. Your fucking move! We are in a lot of trouble across every industry Food water and medicine computer tech and energy But people aren't paying attention not much is getting through Gains in the information war are getting long overdue What's left for the big old octopus to get its tentacles around? Sure it's got a grip on everything, but it's so long Ditches on You need to make a bet Facts over justice over cradles

1:16:53 Sure it's got a little like it in deconstruct the wake them up. They can't continue to win The history of futures changing fat lead us not into temptation By panic cycles are closer sure, it's God
