  • That One Time: The USPS Internet Covert Operations Program Spied On You

    A leaked bulletin details how the 'law enforcement arm' of the US Postal Service collected data as part of the Internet Covert Operations Program (iCOP). Analysts are said to have looked through posts on Facebook, Parler, and Telegram, flagging 'inflammatory' messages and posts about government agencies. It is unclear why the US Postal Inspection Service is putting resources into surveillance or how iCOP is funded; the USPS was hit hard by the pandemic, so something doesn't add up. Also, why is the USPS the government organization spying on American citizens, rather than the FBI?

    Jake Mammal and Oliver Cuttle discuss the ever-growing conspiracy that the US Postal Service has been spying on American citizens.

  • That One Time: Texas Legalized Casinos

    The casino giant Las Vegas Sands has launched a multimillion-dollar advertising blitz to build support for its campaign to bring casinos to Texas. Las Vegas Sands has also spent millions of dollars to hire dozens of lobbyists this legislative session, hoping to persuade a state legislature that has been hesitant to expand gambling options in previous years. For context, the Texas Legislature meets every two years, 2021 is one of those years. This year, big money casinos want their slice of the Texas pie. Will the powers that be allow such a devilish thing as casinos?

    Jake Mammal and Oliver Cuttle discuss the ultimate plan to convert Midland-Odessa into a casino resort paradise. "Two Cities, no Limits."

  • That One Time: Biden Had A Plan

    On a to be determined date, President Biden plans to present his Build Back Better plan on his first joint session of Congress. The plan calls for massive spending on the nation's infrastructure on the order of trillions. The plan involves infrastructure, clean energy, manufacturing, research and development, and training.

    Not only that, it's now more difficult to build wealth. Thank to Senators Cory Booker (D-NJ), Chris Van Hollen (D-MD), Bernie Sanders (I-VT), Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) and Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) who have announced a bill designed to close the stepped up basis tax condition. The proposed bill could make an inheritor liable for taxes on all of the gains, including the ones that accrued before they took ownership.

    Jake Mammal and Oliver Cuttle discuss the Biden administration's proposed mileage tax, infrastructure bill, high thoughts, even more high thoughts, and much more.

  • That One Time: Austin Had Homeless

    Homelessness in the United States has occurred to varying degrees across the country. The total number of homeless people in the United States fluctuates and constantly changes hence a comprehensive figure encompassing the entire nation is not issued since counts from independent shelter providers and statistics managed by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development vary greatly. Federal HUD counts hover annually at around 500,000 people. Point-in-time counts are also vague measures of homeless populations and are not a precise and definitive indicator for the total number of cases, which may differ in both directions up or down. The most recent figure for the year 2019 that was given was at 567,715 individuals across the country that have experienced homelessness at a point in time during this period.

    Homeless people may use shelters, or may sleep in cars, tents, on couches, or in other public places. Separate counts of sheltered people and unsheltered people are critical in understanding the homeless population.

    Each state has different laws, social services and medical policies, and other conditions which influence the number of homeless persons, and what services are available to homeless people in each state.

    Half of the homeless population of the U.S. reside in one of five states (in 2020), with Texas having the fourth largest population at 25,000 and California having the largest at 151,000. Begging has been criminalized in a number of regions in the state of Texas.

    Jake Mammal and Oliver Cuttle discuss the growing homeless encampments in Austin, Texas. They also discuss an ancient Chinese bowl, found at a garage sale, that sold for almost a million dollars.

  • That One Time: Japan Had An Earthquake

    Recorded March 20, 2022, live from Austin, Texas.

    Jake Mammal and Oliver Cuttle discuss the 7.0 preliminary magnitude earthquake that struck Japan off the coast of Ishinomaki, a city located just 65 miles from Fukushima, the site of a 9.0 magnitude quake just 10 years ago. The disparities between the men's and women's NCAA basketball tournaments gym and practice facilities. A man charged with capital murder for deadly shooting of 6-year-old child in Pasadena. And an Amazon driver that quit, saying the final straw was the company's new AI-powered truck cameras that can sense when workers yawn or don't use a seatbelt.

  • That One Time: China Dominated

    In the fall of 2020, the U.S. Air Force simulated a conflict set over a decade in the future that started with a Chinese biological-weapon attack that whipped through U.S. bases and ships in the Indo-Pacific region. Then a major Chinese military exercise was used as cover for the deployment of a massive invasion force. The simulation culminated with Chinese missile strikes raining down on U.S. bases and warships in the region, and a lightning air and amphibious assault on the island of Taiwan. Needless to say, it didn't go too well for the United States.

    Jake Mammal and Oliver Cuttle discuss the dangers of China and its ever-growing military presence. Will China overtake the United States of America? How long before the American people find themselves in a "hot war" with China. Also up for discussion, the new ‘maternity flight suits’ from the U.S. Air Force and Biden's false claim of credit.

  • That One Time: Iceland Feared Volcanoes

    The volcanoes of Iceland include a high concentration of active ones due to Iceland's location on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, a divergent tectonic plate boundary, and its location over a hot spot.

    The island has around 30 active volcanic systems, comprising each volcano-tectonic fissure systems and many of them also a central volcano (mostly in the form of a stratovolcano, sometimes of a shield volcano with a magma chamber underneath). Thirteen volcanic systems have hosted eruptions since the settlement of Iceland in AD 874.

    Of these 30 active volcanic systems, the most active is Grímsvötn. Over the past 500 years, Iceland's volcanoes have produced a third of the total global lava output.

    With over 20,000 earthquakes hitting Iceland within days of recording, Jake Mammal and Oliver Cuttle discuss the global implications and how best to survive the collapse of society and Earth as we know it. A few other topics are discussed, but that's for you to discover.

  • That One Time: The Fed Reserve Helped GameStop

    The Federal Reserve’s system that allows financial institutions, such as banks, to send money to and fro electronically went down for several hours February 24, 2021, but appeared to be coming back online later that afternoon.

    The “operational error,” as the Fed Reserve described it, impacted multiple services, including the pivotal automated clearinghouse system, which connects depository and related institutions sending electronic credit and debt transfers.

    There were no initial indications that foul play was suspected.

    Along with the Fed ACH service, other systems impacted included Check 21, FedCash, Fedwire and the national settlement service.

    Meanwhile, GME and AMC shares increased at record rates.

    Jake Mammal and Oliver Cuttle, neither of whom are financial advisors, discuss the conspiracy behind the big financial institutions and GameStop and AMC shares. Jake and Oliver also discuss the legendary Houstonian, Mattress Mack.

  • That One Time: We Survived Snowpocalypse

    The February 2021 North American ice storm or Winter Storm Shirley, was a damaging ice storm that impacted the Deep and Upland South and Ohio Valley from February 10–11. The storm also brought wintry precipitation to the Mid-Atlantic states. The system caused over 212,000 power outages and at least 9 fatalities have been confirmed so far, primarily due to accidents involving freezing rain and sleet.

    The February 13–17, 2021 North American winter storm, also unofficially referred to as Winter Storm Uri, was a major winter and ice storm that had widespread impacts across the United States, Northern Mexico, and parts of Canada from February 13–17. The storm started out at the Pacific Northwest and quickly moved into the Southern United States, before moving on to the Midwestern and Northeastern United States a couple of days later.

    The storm resulted in over 170 million Americans being placed under various winter weather alerts across the country and caused blackouts for over 9.7 million people in the U.S. and Mexico, most notably the 2021 Texas power crisis. The blackouts were the largest in the U.S. since the Northeast blackout of 2003. The storm also brought severe destructive weather to Southeastern United States, including several tornadoes.

    On the early morning of February 11, 2021, due to the frigid weather, Interstate 35W in Fort Worth, Texas was icy, which was unusual for the area. As a result, at 6:30 AM CST the first collision occurred when a vehicle skidded off the road, which led to several vehicles, including semi-trucks, to pile up on the motorway. Ultimately, 133 cars piled in the incident which left motorists trapped in their vehicles. Six people died and sixty-five people were transported to a local hospital. The National Transportation Safety Board is performing a safety investigation of the crash.

    Governor Greg Abbott (R) called on the legislature to investigate and reform the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) after winter weather left millions of Texans without power.

    Jake Mammal and Oliver Cuttle survived.
