Welcome to the show! This episode streamed live originally in x spaces. Stop by every tuesday and wednesday around 9pm to join in and offer your thoughts. In this episode I discussed an article that came across my desk recently that calls out the “new right” or different elements of conservative thought found online as being... well very vulgar, and not worthy of good Christian. I think there’s more to the question, and in fact there is a place for us unafraid of fighting back against leftism and the inverted evils we see across society. We don’t have to passively allow ourselves to go extinct.

In case you missed it, I had the pleasure of sitting down with the inestimable (he would say incomprehensible) Tommy Salmons on the Year Zero Podcast. We talked about a lot of big current events happening across the world, but more importantly we talk about what happens to your mind when you start to “wake up” and realize the world isn’t what you thought it was. “How do we fix this?” is a question we ask in our everyday lives and it seems ridiculous that elites and elected politicians aren’t able to do the same. Make sure to listen and give Tommy a follow if you don’t already! ( on x)

New episode available! Welcome to the show, in this episode we go over a recent piece I wrote at beenawake.com that discusses why the type of content I produce here at the mission of better sense making matters.

Namely, a better understanding of the world around them. Join me in this episode and if you like what I have to say, a follow or like goes a long way to keeping the content train chugging along.

🌟Super Bowl Ad Alert! Did you catch the “He Gets Us” commercial? 🏈✨ It’s stirring up quite the conversation! From washing feet in unexpected places to a powerful message about love and acceptance, it’s got everyone talking. But let’s dive deeper into what this ad really means.

👀 Attention-Grabbing Tactics: This ad knows how to turn heads! 💥 Advertising 101: grab attention to get your message across. And boy, did they succeed! People are buzzing about it, for better or worse.

📖 The Agenda: “He Gets Us” isn’t just a catchy slogan; it’s a movement led by “Come Near,” a nonprofit aiming to redefine Jesus’ message in a modern light. But what’s their endgame? 🤔

💰 Follow the Money: Turns out, the brains behind this campaign have deep pockets, courtesy of the Hobby Lobby family. 💼 But does big money equal big influence?

🤔 The Debate: While the ad preaches love and understanding, some argue it glosses over the core tenets of Christianity. Is it all love and no theology? 🤷‍♂️

👣 The True Message: Let’s not forget the real story behind the foot-washing. It’s a symbol of humility and service, reflecting Jesus’ ultimate sacrifice. 🙏

The Super Bowl holds a significant place in American culture, but recent controversies have led some fans to question its authenticity. From the NFL’s ties to patriotic displays and military recruitment to concerns over player safety and growing politicization, many are reevaluating their allegiance. Taylor Swift’s presence at Chiefs games adds another layer of scrutiny, with speculation about the authenticity of her relationship with Travis Kelce. As awareness of propaganda grows, so does skepticism about the legitimacy of the sport. Despite this, the Super Bowl remains a cultural event, prompting gatherings and discussions. Whether a grand conspiracy or simply entertainment, understanding the game’s nature is key.

The mission of better sensemaking continues! I remember growing up, people would talk about politics in terms of a pendulum swinging. A pendulum is a weight hung from a fixed point so it can swing freely backward and forward. For most of the 21st century and arguably the late 20th century, this symbolic pendulum manifested in supreme court decisions has swung “left.” Only recently has the court become more “conservative” and so we watch as the pendulum swings “right.” What does this mean for our polity? How does this show us what comes next in politics? These are the types of questions we explore in episode 85 (even though the video slides will show 84.) We also cover Twitter’s recent decision to limit the amount of tweets for its users, Meta launching a micro-blog app, updates from the Ukrainian conflict, and the sad state of modern dating.

A loyal listener wanted me to take it to the woke, so that’s what we’ll do in episode 84. We’re over halfway through yet another pride month, and I’m reminded of the cliché about how a bankruptcy happens - slowly and then all at once. While for many people the idea of q***rness seems brand new, the ideas have been incubating for some time. Unfortunately the life these ideas bring is quite ugly and misshapen but nonetheless it exists. Together we’ll watch some videos that demonstrate this new inverted morality and pick apart not only their arguments but why they make them in the first place. Don’t forget! The best and quickest way to access the latest piece of better sensemaking is to go to beenawake.com and subscribe with your email, and do me a favor - share this show with a friend you think will enjoy the content, and an escape from the woke.

11/06/2023

In this episode we dive into the recent “revelations” by the Washington Post confirming what so many of us already knew - the United States had direct knowledge of the Nordstream attack last year months before it occurred.
While reading the piece we will analyze the form these kinds of stories take. After all - in order to maintain credibility press outlets do eventually need to report on the facts. The key word being “eventually” this is another great example of “narrative discipline” in action. They allow for the facts of something to be incorporated to the news cycle, and create enough plausible deniability to justify the original false propaganda.
After that we change gears and read my latest original mindset piece about being stuck in a rut.
