In this episode of the Average Intelligence Podcast, we break down the latest Dragon Ball announcements and what they mean for the future of the franchise. From new projects and story directions to fan reactions and global hype, we dig into why Dragon Ball continues to dominate anime culture decades later.

We talk about the theater experience of Dragon Ball films, the unmatched fan energy across the world (especially in Latin America), and how movies like Dragon Ball Super: Broly and Battle of Gods reshaped the franchise. Plus, we explore what these new announcements signal for the next era of Dragon Ball — including speculation, legacy storytelling, and where the series is heading next.

If you’re a lifelong fan or just getting into the series, this episode is a must-listen for understanding why Dragon Ball still matters — and why its future might be bigger than ever.

Campaign promises are easy. Governing is not.

In this episode of Average Intelligence, we take a calm, evidence-based look at the major promises made by Donald Trump during his presidential campaign and compare them to what actually happened while he was in office. No outrage, no spin — just a structured “report card” that separates promises kept, promises partially fulfilled, and promises that never materialized.

This isn’t about cheering or attacking. It’s about accountability, political memory, and why voters on all sides deserve clear, honest evaluations instead of vibes and talking points. If we can’t grade results, democracy turns into marketing.

In this episode of the Average Intelligence Podcast, we dive deep into Martin Scorsese’s criminally underrated masterpiece, Silence. This isn’t just a movie review — it’s a long-form conversation about faith, doubt, suffering, Christianity, and the uncomfortable questions most films are too afraid to explore.

Despite being one of Scorsese’s most powerful films, Silence never got the hype or recognition it deserved. We talk about why this film slipped under the mainstream radar, what makes it so emotionally heavy, and how its themes hit harder today than they did on release.

We break down:

-The film’s bold approach to faith under pressure

-How Silence portrays the internal war between belief and survival

-The moral tension at the heart of Christianity

-Why audiences didn’t fully understand the film’s message

-What makes this one of the most challenging and spiritually honest movies ever made

Whether you’re a fan of Scorsese, a lover of deep film analysis, or someone wrestling with big questions about faith and meaning — this episode pulls no punches.

🎬 This is easily one of the most important conversations we’ve had on the show.

If you’ve seen Silence — or if you’ve never seen it — this breakdown will change the way you think about the film, its message, and the cost of belief.

Tonight on Average Intelligence, we unpack Trump’s controversial Venezuela strategy — from the U.S. military operation that led to Nicolás Maduro’s capture and federal charges to sweeping control over Venezuelan oil and what it means for U.S. law, global geopolitics, and international norms.

We discuss:

-Why the U.S. seized Venezuela’s president and brought him to New York — and the legal questions it raises about sovereignty and international law. -How Trump’s plan to sell Venezuelan oil under U.S. control could reshape global energy markets.

-What this means for Latin America, U.S. politics, and future foreign policy debates.

Join us for a deep dive into the political, legal, and diplomatic fallout — and what may lie ahead.
