What’s real anymore?
From AI-generated ads using celebrity faces, to doctored political videos, to entire wars fought through propaganda — the line between truth and illusion has officially vanished.

In this episode, we break down how deepfakes, media manipulation, and algorithmic chaos have turned reality into a product. From Jake Paul selling his digital likeness to AI, to fake news about world events, and the dark incentives behind modern media, it’s not just misinformation — it’s monetized confusion.

We also dive into the latest global tension points — the Israel–Gaza crisisAI propaganda, and the eerie rise of false-flag paranoia — and ask the question nobody wants to answer: what happens when truth stops paying?

👁️‍🗨️ Topics covered:

  • Jake Paul’s AI deal and the future of “digital souls”

  • Deepfakes, fake ads, and algorithmic lies

  • Why propaganda works better than ever

  • The blurred line between free speech and manipulation
