Palantir, Palantir, Palantir.

We keep hearing their name, but WHO are they? This week, we're asking the question and going deep in search of the answer. This clandestive tech company has rapidly become deeply invested in the inner-most factions of our government, so let's dissect the following:

• Who is Palantir?
• What do they do?
• History of Palantir
• What is their involvement with the government?
• Founders Peter Thiel and Alex Karp 101
• Where is Palantir headed?

We draw on the wisdom of Edward Snowden as we warn of what happens when you hand the keys to the castle to a company like this.

In this week's episode, Bri is joined by Brant to discuss the 3 theoretical stages of a global collapse, what that looks like long-term, and what stage we are likely in today.

This conversation centrals around the systematic sabotaging of the systems the modern world relies on: agriculture, energy, technology, and more. We take a close look at the impact of AI, on both these systems and the individual, as well as the repurcussions of having a government controlled by big corporations. We go deep into Elon Musk's idea of a "universal high income" and the tariff refund checks being handed out to corporations, disregarding those of us who actually ate the cost of tariff-driven price increases.

Tonight, long-time friend and repeat guest of the show, Denny, sits down with Blaise for share some beers and thoughts on everything happening domestically and abroad.

We work through a wide range of issues shaping the global landscape- rom rising geopolitical tensions involving China and Russia to the ripple effects war will continue to have on supply chains and economic stability. Along the way, we discuss government overreach, unchecked spending, migration driven by overregulation, and the growing concern that political loyalty is replacing independent thought in leadership.

The conversation also turns toward accountability and resilience: the importance of term limits, the consequences of bloated government, and the need for citizens to think critically rather than follow party lines. We highlight an unusual story about a 14-year-old running for governor in Vermont as a lens into political awareness and the possibility of generational change. As always, we bring the discussion back to practical action- encouraging preparedness, self-sufficiency, and strong local communities in uncertain times- while reflecting on the deeper spiritual dimension many see behind today’s conflicts: the enduring struggle between truth and deception, good and evil.
