概要

John Wayne's Surge Protector podcast is two guys discussing the world around us on a twice weekly basis. We try to look at things that we think are huge deals and sometimes those items are also flying under the radar for a lot of other media channels. Having known each other for many years some of the jokes you hear may not come off as jokes. Keep listening and you will get in the loop soon enough as well. We have a link to leave any feedback in most of the episodes so don't hesitate to reach out.

  • Read the Room (And the Bible)
    2026/04/17

    Three "Who Said It" quotes to kick things off this week — one political, one philosophical, and one that involves a roadkill raccoon on the interstate. Good luck placing all three.

    Tesla pops nearly 8% on news that, once you actually read it, is not good news — and we break down exactly why the math doesn't add up. Plus a cautionary tale about a shoe company that discovered the magic words "AI pivot" and briefly became worth 600% more before reality showed back up.

    Russia is now publicly confirming foreign soldiers dying in Ukraine, which quietly says everything about where this war actually stands. Meanwhile Pete Hegseth held another Pentagon prayer service — and this time quoted scripture that turns out to have originated somewhere very different from the Bible. We'll let you figure out where.

    The Trump-as-healer imagery made the rounds this week, which led to an impromptu press conference with a DoorDash grandmother from Arkansas that somehow touched on Iran, the Pope, trans athletes, and the Big Beautiful Bill — all while the woman at the center of it was quietly dealing with a situation that exposes exactly what the bill doesn't cover.

    JD Vance had some theological advice for the Pope this week. We have thoughts. Sean Hannity had a follow-up question. We have more thoughts.

    Paper Mario is back in the news with a sentencing update that has the internet doing some very dark math, and a Virginia governor quietly did something to a certain tax-exempt organization that's been a long time coming.

  • Pay Us Enough To Live
    2026/04/14

    We open with a quote this week — and trust us, you're going to want to guess who said it before we tell you. Tesla gets a so-called "upgrade" that, once you read what it actually means, raises more questions than it answers — including what happens when the company's biggest bet doesn't scale.

    The Easter ceasefire came and went, and both sides have the receipts — nearly 4,000 combined violations worth. We get into what Russia's idea of "negotiations" actually looks like at the table, and why the sports world quietly rolling out the welcome mat for Russian and Belarusian athletes deserves a lot more attention than it's getting.

    The big story this week is Hungary, where something remarkable happened at the ballot box — and the details of how it happened, who made it happen, and what it could mean for Europe are genuinely worth understanding. We give you the full backstory on the man who pulled it off, the party with the interesting name, and why one very prominent American has been conspicuously silent about the whole thing.

    Closer to home, a warehouse in California went up in spectacular fashion, the internet has feelings about it, and the comparisons to a certain incarcerated menu planner are already flying. We break down the math, the motive, and why the story people are actually telling about it might be the most interesting part.

    We close out with the ladies dedication this week — you'll know it when you hear it.

  • The Ceasefire That Wasn't
    2026/04/10

    Tesla ticks up slightly but there's a bigger supply chain story lurking underneath that the tech world hasn't fully reckoned with yet — and it connects to everything happening in the Middle East right now. Ukraine meanwhile is having a very productive week in places Russia thought were safe.

    JD Vance is still on his European tour and sits down for an interview that goes about as well as you'd expect — a greatest hits of revisionist history, questionable math, and some truly bold takes on what counts as foreign interference. We dig into what's actually being asked of Ukraine versus what Russia has been asked to give up, and why the ceasefire that was supposed to be a big win is starting to look a little different in the fine print.

    On the home front, your favorite snack brand has been quietly doing something shady for years and just got caught — and the way they're "fixing" it might actually make things worse. Speaking of things getting worse, there's some chatter out of DC about a registration process that hasn't been relevant since 1973, which raises some uncomfortable questions about how confident the people in charge really are about this whole ceasefire thing.

    RFK Jr. has a new venture, the Pope has some strong words for the White House, and the White House has some very surprising words right back for the Pope. We open with a quote and challenge you to guess who said it — it's a good one.
