Brad Zerbo and Zak “RedPill78” Paine dig into New York’s controversial plan to extend Manhattan into the Hudson River, exploring the history of landfill expansion, crumbling infrastructure, and the politics of housing in the city. From Typhoid Mary’s exile to North Brother Island to gas leaks and collapsing Bronx buildings, they connect past public health crises with today’s urban decay.

The discussion shifts to revelations that Israel is paying U.S. influencers $7,000 per post, raising alarms about foreign lobbying, AIPAC’s outsized role, and bipartisan corruption in Congress. They debate dual citizenship, foreign aid packages, and Trump’s push to end endless giveaways, tying it back to Bob Menendez’s scandals and broader questions of loyalty. The episode also touches on Trump’s 20-point Gaza peace plan, AI-driven memes targeting Democrats, and the FBI-led crackdown in Memphis. Blending history, current events, and sharp humor, Brad and Zak expose how propaganda, money, and power intersect, from Manhattan’s shoreline to the Middle East.
