    EP:26 - Hezbollah in Latin America???
    2025/12/15
    Darryl Cooper and Scott Horton reflect on the nefarious motives behind the US-backed coups in Venezuela and Iran as they dismantle the neocon agenda while providing highlights from the wild history of American imperialism. They address how far Hezbollah's network of support has grown and why. They also survey the foreign policy blunders that resulted in the very avoidable war in Ukraine, the Biden administration's heavy involvement in it, many missed opportunities for peace deals, and the insane nuclear brinkmanship of many US, NATO, and EU officials. This episode also features some righteous anger directed at the IRS, updates on the Martyr Made podcast, and discussion of the Libertarian Institute's new release, Empire of Lies, by Charles Goyette. 00:00 Introduction and Catch-Up 02:33 New Book Release: Empire of Lies, by Charles Goyette 10:00 Venezuela and US Foreign Policy 18:20 Hezbollah's Global Criminal Network... including Latin America? 33:22 NATO and Ukraine Conflict 42:41 Negotiations and Missed Opportunities 45:07 The Reality of Military Strategies 52:17 The IRS: A Personal Vendetta 55:56 Martyr Made Updates 01:15:23 Neoconservatives and Foreign Policy 01:18:01 Final Thoughts and Announcements (Cleaned up w/ the Podsworth app. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://podsworth.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠) 👉 Subscribe for more honest, unfiltered conversations that push past the noise. 🔹 No safe spaces. 🔹 No corporate filters. 🔹 Just raw, informed, and fearless conversation.

  • EP:22 - Epstein's Mossad Connection Proven

    EP:22 - Epstein's Mossad Connection Proven
    2025/11/15

    The latest Provoked episode takes a hard look at the deeper story behind Jeffrey Epstein, exploring new evidence connecting Epstein to Israeli intelligence, Robert Maxwell’s networks, and the covert systems that link powerful elites to intelligence operations around the world. This episode examines the wider ecosystem behind the Epstein Israel ties, showing how backchannels, deniable intermediaries, and offshore money pipelines shape global policy far beyond the headlines.

    Scott and Darryl break down key details the mainstream rarely touches: Ehud Barak’s connection to Epstein, the rise of Unit 8200–adjacent tech ventures, and the financial strategies perfected during Iran-Contra that allowed governments and private intelligence actors to move money, influence, and information through unofficial channels. These insights help explain why so many high-profile figures stayed close to Epstein even after his crimes were public — a mix of incentives, political access, and a culture where reputation takes a back seat to power.

    The episode also connects the Epstein story to broader patterns in U.S. foreign policy, from bacha bazi in Afghanistanto the way the Syria conflict empowered extremist groups under the fog of war. When intelligence priorities demand silence, vulnerable people become collateral damage.

    Scott and Darryl explore today’s tough choices in Syria, including the tradeoff between stability and justice, the dangers of legitimizing strongmen to block worse actors, and how sweeping U.S. sanctions end up hurting civilians while elites avoid consequences. These conversations paint a larger picture of how intelligence agencies, offshore finance, and geopolitical strategy collide to create the world behind official narratives.

    If you’re looking for a clear, honest breakdown of Epstein’s intelligence ties, covert operations, offshore money networks, and the hidden power structures shaping global events, this episode offers one of the most detailed explanations available.

    EP:21 – The MAGA Civil War Has Begun! Tucker Carlson v. Shapiro & Levin
    2025/11/08
    The outrage machine took a clipped quote and turned it into a trial of character. So instead of ducking the fire, we walked straight in and asked tougher questions: What choices did Churchill really make in 1939 and 1940—and what did they cost Europe? Where were the off-ramps? How did British strategy, propaganda, and bombing doctrine fuel escalation? And why does that history still matter when you scroll your phone today and see Gaza in ruins? Cooper draws a line from the myths of World War II to the way narratives are managed now—from algorithms that boost “safe” dissenters, to the lobby networks that punish anyone who strays too far. Public opinion has shifted, but the elite consensus hasn’t moved an inch. That tension is visible to everyone—left, right, and center. Once people see unfiltered footage instead of curated messaging, they start asking the questions the gatekeepers don’t want on the table: Who shapes the narrative? Who gets silenced? And why don’t our leaders reflect the moral instincts of the public? We also face the fracture on the right head-on. A younger, online generation speaks a different political language than the legacy establishment, and their anger often gets mistaken for ideology. Our approach is simple: reach big, alienated audiences without endorsing their worst takes; defend open debate instead of letting smear campaigns define its limits; distinguish between Zionism, lobbying, and Jewish identity; and keep the focus where it belongs—on policy and power. Engagement isn’t endorsement. It’s strategy. Persuasion that expands the conversation beats purity that shrinks it. If you’re done with cartoon history and choreographed outrage, this conversation connects the dots: Churchill’s gambles, manufactured consent, Gaza’s moral reckoning, algorithmic manipulation, and the urgent need to build institutions that teach complexity instead of slogans. Subscribe, share it with a friend who still sees history in black and white, and leave a review to help others find the show. Your feedback drives what we dig into next. Don’t blink — because what’s happening inside MAGA right now could reshape the entire movement.

    EP:20 – Pumpkins, Podcasts, and People Getting Mad Online
    2025/11/01
    War talk is easy — until you hear from someone who actually lived it. In this episode, we step away from headlines and theories to listen to the people who’ve seen combat up close. Trenches, artillery, fear — these aren’t abstractions. They’re human stories. E.B. Sledge once called artillery “an invention of hell,” and when you hear why, you understand what’s really at stake when leaders talk about war. From there, we dig into today’s culture battles — platforming vs. canceling, open debate vs. gatekeeping. The Heritage Foundation backed Tucker Carlson when others wanted him silenced, and it raises a bigger question: does deplatforming ever actually work? We argue that bringing controversial voices into real conversation builds more trust than trying to erase them. We also talk about Nick Fuentes — his rise to fame, the controversy surrounding him, and how his evolution from an 18-year-old provocateur to a symbol of online extremism says a lot about the internet era itself. His story shows how the mix of outrage, youth, and social media algorithms can turn fringe figures into icons for millions — and why ignoring them doesn’t make the problem go away. We then shift to the wars abroad — especially in Israel and Gaza — and how they’re reopening old divides here at home. The Right is still wrestling with the legacy of Iraq and the failure of regime change. Now, when images of Gaza flood the internet faster than official narratives, labeling critics as bigots doesn’t end the argument — it just deepens the anger. Finally, we turn inward. How did identity politics and social media turn neighbors into rivals? How did equality give way to endless outrage? We talk about how culture shifts, why universal values still matter, and how free speech and fairness can pull us back from the edge. At the heart of this conversation is one idea: listen to the people who’ve lived it. Respect real experience. Trust your audience. Because when we stop talking and start censoring, we don’t fix anything — we just make the world louder and meaner.

    EP:19 [GUEST] – Ronald Dodson :The Shutdown Isn't About Money / It's About Power
    2025/10/25
    Start with the trenches, not the slogans. We open with Daryl’s new MartyrMade series that tells World War II from the German perspective, beginning in World War I to show how ordinary men were swept by trauma, propaganda, and deprivation into choices that later hardened into catastrophe. The aim is clarity, not absolution—humanize even the “enemy,” and you gain the tools to see your own era more honestly. From that lens, we shift to power now. Guest Ronald Dodson explains why a government shutdown can reveal a rare opportunity to cut through the administrative state. OMB’s role in classifying “non‑essential” positions and triggering reduction‑in‑force plans isn’t bean counting; it’s a constitutional lever. We explore Article II authority, what it should mean for presidential control of the executive branch, and how to draw a hard line against Bush‑era claims of boundless commander‑in‑chief power. Elections only matter if executives can direct and dismiss, and if Congress stops outsourcing lawmaking to regulators. Foreign policy exposes the costs of an unaccountable machine. The Cold War built a global apparatus that never stood down: covert wars that try to conscript the Pentagon, a CIA culture that glorifies operating beyond rules, and procurement fantasies like the F‑35 that attempt to be everything and end up fragile. We weigh a bold corrective—moving CIA operations into DIA under military accountability—and trace how empires force universal solutions while rivals need only local answers. That asymmetry drains treasure and invites strategic overreach. Can we return to an old republic? No—but we can recover representative control. That means narrowing delegations, demanding real budgets instead of endless CRs, restoring presidential direction over agencies, and designing reforms that face forward rather than worship nostalgia. Along the way, expect sharp debate, concrete mechanics, and a throughline: stories that humanize the past can help us govern the present. If this episode challenged your assumptions or gave you a new frame to think with, follow the show, share it with a friend, and leave a review so more people can find it.
