Description

Do you call the Show-Me state home? Are you sick of burying your head in the sand about national and local political issues? Are you too overwhelmed to even think about consuming news due to the sheer quantity? We realized through conversations with people in all different settings, most have NO IDEA what's going on in our local government. We decided to do this podcast to cover the shenanigans that we think is especially important for our friends and family to know. We do say a few cuss words so we wouldn't recommend listening while your kids are in the car!

@anthon7yandrewsThe war against the citizen isn't coming; it’s already here. From the militarization of ICE to the calculated recruitment of impoverished youth into the state’s meat grinder, the system is working exactly as intended. We’re deep-diving into the memos they didn't want you to read—like Roger Stone’s blueprint for disarming the "wrong" people—and the social media algorithms designed to keep you too distracted to care. We don’t do hope, we do strategy. Join us as we discuss collective action, the power of a general strike, and how to reclaim your attention from the digital vampire. If you're looking for a "both sides" debate, move on. If you want to survive the surveillance state, welcome home.
Politics is currently a slow-motion car crash, and Jordan Herrera is tired of watching from the sidelines. Running for Missouri’s 4th Congressional District, the military veteran joins us to dissect the "constitutional coup" currently masquerading as our government. We skip the thoughts and prayers to tackle the grim stuff: why redistricting is a shell game, the pervasive rot of sexual assault in the military, and a healthcare system that treats preventative care like a luxury and end-of-life care like a cash cow. Jordan argues that if we’re actually "pro-life," we should probably start by making housing affordable and healthcare a right rather than a privilege for the lucky few. It’s a conversation about evidence, accountability, and the radical idea that Missourians deserve a representative who actually understands the struggle of the 99%.https://jordanjherrera.com/https://www.tiktok.com/@herreraformissouri
@anthon7yandrewsThis episode takes a hard look at the serious allegations of grooming and misconduct that continue to follow major political figures. We dive into the controversial history of Matt Gaetz and Jim Jordan, questioning why certain patterns of behavior are allowed to persist within powerful political circles. The conversation doesn't hold back as we explore the confusing story of Nestor Gaetz and the disturbing details found in the Epstein flight logs. We also address the psychological impact on survivors, specifically focusing on the allegations made against Donald Trump and the systemic failures that often shield those at the top from real accountability. It’s a heavy but necessary discussion on why the justice system so often fails the people it’s supposed to protect.
What happens when a small business owner and mother decides she’s had enough of the political noise? You get Stacey Bax, and she’s running for Missouri’s District 61 to prove that representation isn't about the party line—it’s about the grocery line.In this episode, we sit down with Stacey to discuss why she’s trading the quiet life for the campaign trail. From the high stakes of Medicaid expansion and special education funding to the everyday hurdles facing Missouri small businesses, Stacey breaks down why "business as usual" isn't working for working families.https://www.instagram.com/baxformo/https://www.facebook.com/people/Stacy-Bax-for-State-House/61585051343965/

@anthon7yandrewsIn a world where your brain is being outsourced to social media algorithms, does accurate information even exist? Today, we analyze the capture of Maduro as just another pawn move in the grim game of international politics. We’ll mock the "objectivity" of state-controlled media and examine how information warfare exploits your implicit bias to keep you angry and distracted. From the manipulative power of religious interpretations to the global shrug toward climate change, we question if community engagement is a real solution or just a buzzword to keep us busy while our rights are being quietly dismantled. It’s a dark look at the systems that own us—don't say we didn't warn you.
In this episode, we crawl out of our sickbeds just in time to watch the Missouri legislature trip over its own redistricting maps. Maternal health outcomes in Missouri are plummeting, yet the military-industrial complex still gets a blank check thanks to a total lack of congressional oversight. We tackle the 'Missouri math' of trying to survive on a minimum wage that hasn't met the cost of living since the invention of the wheel. But hey, since the bar for governance is officially underground, we’re spending the final segment explaining why you should run for office—because at this point, literally anyone could do a better job than the incumbents. Grab your rage, it’s time to talk Missouri politics!LIVE: Jack Smith Testimony DISSECTED as Trump Crimes Unravel
@anthon7yandrewsAmerica didn’t suddenly “lose its way.” It was built like this. This podcast looks at corruption in the U.S. the old-fashioned way—by following the money, the power, and the people who keep getting away with it. From the industrial era that reshaped society (and not in a cute way) to intelligence agencies that operate more like organized crime with better PR, we break down how the system actually works. We talk media manipulation, the chaos and power games of the Trump years, the Epstein case and its very uncomfortable implications, and why voting rights keep getting treated like optional features instead of the foundation of democracy. Along the way, we ask the obvious question: if history keeps repeating itself, why do we keep acting surprised?
FOLLOW TONY ON THE CESSPOOL AKA TWITTER- @anthon7yandrewsThis podcast explores the growing demand for accountability in systems of power, examining the Epstein files, political responsibility, and the failures that allow abuse and human trafficking to persist. Through survivor stories, critical analysis of social media’s influence on public discourse, and discussions on the intersection of religion, power, and corruption, the show confronts how truth is often distorted by misinformation and conspiracy theories. Centered on activism, community building, and the need for parallel justice systems, this podcast challenges listeners to think critically, collaborate across communities, and engage in meaningful social change to address systemic injustice.
The political climate right now feels increasingly absurd and, at times, outright dystopian. This episode looks at government accountability through FBI leadership changes, Missouri’s troubled economic policies, and the way political figures rarely seem to learn from past failures. We also touch on media image-making, fusion energy wrapped in political intrigue, and a public that’s becoming more aware—and more skeptical—of how power actually works.
In this episode, we examine pre-filed Missouri legislation that threatens women’s rights and bodily autonomy, highlighting how reproductive laws often ignore medical realities and create lasting harm. We explore the impact of forced pregnancy policies on the foster care system, the role of political corruption and lobbying, and how Supreme Court decisions reflect a system driven by money and power. The conversation expands to military accountability, U.S. actions in Venezuela, and the responsibility of corporate leaders to speak out for social justice and human rights.
We blitz through the week’s hottest controversies including Epstein’s connections, Kushner’s influence, and the wave of psy-ops shaping public perception. Add in the COVID-19 vs. HIV debate, deregulation fallout, talk of a “new world order,” transnational organized crime, the Qatar plane deal, and the legacy of mind-control experiments. With whistleblower struggles, media manipulation, and demands for government transparency, this episode is your fast, sarcastic crash course in questioning the narrative.Find Tony on Twitter- @anthon7yandrews
We explore the sinister ties between big banks, corporate donations, and the politicians who turn a blind eye to the suffering of everyday Americans. And let’s not forget religious organizations......should they really maintain their tax-exempt status while wading into politics? With military actions that raise serious ethical questions and a government increasingly owned by corporations, this episode is a wake-up call for anyone who believes in a fair, just system. Tune in for a conversation that goes beyond the headlines and takes a hard look at the corrupt forces working behind the scenes to manipulate your life.TURN IN A CHURCH:https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f13909.pdf
In this jaw-dropping episode, we dive into the controversial investigations of Kevin Annett, a long-time advocate for survivors of church-run residential schools and institutional abuse. For over 30 years, Annett has pushed to expose what he calls hidden crimes within powerful systems, from churches to governments to global financial networks. We explore the shadow side of history, including allegations of church involvement in the abuse of Indigenous children, covert programs tied to mind-control experiments like MKUltra, and the networks involved in human trafficking. Annett discusses why he believes certain institutions, including courts and media, avoid touching these issues - and why citizen-led inquiries and independent tribunals may be the only path to truth. The episode unpacks big themes: The tension between power, politics, and religious institutions How trauma can lead to dissociative coping mechanisms Why Annett argues that systems are designed to protect perpetrators, not victims How communities can reclaim power through local governance and citizen-driven justice At its core, this conversation is about one thing: truth as a tool for change. Whether you’re researching church abuse scandals, institutional corruption, or grassroots justice movements, this episode offers a provocative look at what happens when everyday people refuse to stay silent.

In this episode, we talk about why working families rely on SNAP benefits. Hint: it’s not because they’re living the high life on government-funded charcuterie boards. It’s because many corporations still behave like paying a living wage is a mythical concept, like Bigfoot or affordable housing.We dive into how the middle class keeps the entire economy running, yet somehow keeps getting treated like the “optional” middle child. Then we take a detour into the world of politics, where manipulation is basically a sport and women running for office get critiqued on their policies and their shoes. Technology, mind games, psychological influence—it’s all here. Yes, your phone is basically a tiny propaganda billboard.We also shine light on the very real and very global issue of human trafficking, because pretending it doesn’t exist isn’t helping anyone. And we wrap it all up by reminding ourselves of the most powerful force we have: community. When things get chaotic, we don’t rise alone. We rise together. Preferably with snacks.
The “No Kings” rally drew a crowd — proof that people are fed up. From protests that mix humor and anger, to ICE’s ballooning budget and the military’s quiet moves in the Caribbean, this episode looks at how power keeps expanding while citizens push back. We talk student loans, trade, and why satire might be the last honest form of protest.
2025 called — it wants its sanity back. From Amish peace to political chaos, we’re watching history replay itself, just with more hashtags and fewer ethics. The CDC’s under fire, Trump’s still fishing for gold stars, and the voting machines may or may not be owned by your cousin’s crypto startup. It’s the same circus — just new clowns.
Welcome to the podcast where beef prices aren’t the only thing getting butchered. We’re slicing into how corporate ag, political apathy, and crumbling rural hospitals are serving rural America a well-done disaster. From tariffs to tax credits to the ghosts of the Rural New Deal, we’re grilling up stories that prove it’s not just the cows getting milked—it’s all of us.Find Will here:https://www.youtube.com/@WestmorelandPopshttps://www.tiktok.com/@westmoreland_pops?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc
Buckle up for a brutally honest ride through Missouri’s political hell, where Jess Piper calls out the nonsense most politicians hope you’re too distracted to notice. From gerrymandered districts and disappearing detainees to billionaire-approved news and TikTok takeovers, we’re unpacking how democracy got sold at a garage sale. If you’re tired of gaslighting headlines, government hypocrisy, this podcast is your antidote.
@anthon7yandrewsJoin us with Tony as we tackle free speech — that magical right people confuse with “say anything without consequences.” Algorithms are now our overlords, documentaries try to clean up the mess, and cognitive dissonance keeps politics spinning. Meanwhile, scandals involving politicians and child abuse remind us that accountability is apparently optional. And political “compromise”? Just code for selling your soul for a seat at the table.
