Zachary Foust is a military brat turned Army National Guard veteran, turned real estate team leader, turned online commentator who's been "following the money" down every rabbit hole for the past four years. 

We get into Zach's take on the real estate market right now, what a year in Afghanistan actually taught him, and how "following the money" for four years changed the way he sees everything.

We also go cover:

- A year in Afghanistan and the poppy fields he saw with his own eyes 🪖

- The CIA's alleged hand in the drug trade 👀

- Why people making SIX FIGURES can't buy a house anymore 

- Why he thinks the 2008 crash may be happening again 💵

- Getting off the algorithm and what it ACTUALLY changed in his life

- His honest, no-sides-picked take on Mamdani and NYC's experiment

- The daily discipline he credits for staying sane in this economy 💪

Two guys, two mics, and a conversation that goes further than either expected.

He tells clients money is just a piece of paper - and he MEANS it.

Justin Chastain is a financial advisor who says most of his industry has it backwards, and he's here to break down why chasing more money can actually leave you poorer in the ways that matter.

Justin built his career around what he calls the "five forms of wealth" and a "profit first" mindset that puts value before dollars. Along the way he's given up alcohol, stood on stage doing stand-up comedy, and rebuilt his outlook after losing his mother.

We also go cover:

- The "money illusion" that convinces people they need more than they do 💰

- Why the average person is three years from retirement with NOTHING saved

- Why he thinks most financial advisors are BORING 🙄

- The blunt answer to "what is money, really?" 💵

- How the device in front of you is quietly killing REAL conversation

- The twisted reason the IRS invented payroll deductions… 

- Why lottery winners go BANKRUPT faster than broke people expect 🎰

Justin isn't selling comfort. He's selling honesty, and it shows.

A silver disc materializes on a bridge in the Florida Keys. Three beings step out. One tells him: "We are the WATCHERS." 

That's just one of the cases Matt Kellison has worked on as MUFON's Florida State Director - and he returns for a follow-up conversation to go even deeper into the files, the footage, and the encounters most people never hear about.

In this episode, we get into a 1970s Navy airman's missing weekend, ancient stone carvings that SHOULDN’T exist, government withholding information, and why MUFON keeps getting flooded with new reports.

We also go through:

- 8,500-year-old carvings in Mexico showing alien faces 🗿

- The 46 videos Congress demanded that still haven't surfaced

- Missing pregnancies and reported hybrid children 🫨

- The Pentagon’s video encounter no one's been allowed to see…

- The Watchers, the Nephilim, and the Book of Enoch

- Quantum imaging analysis of "streaming head" footage EXPOSED

- How to report a sighting or abduction yourself 👀

Matt’s findings are fascinating - you do not want to miss this one.

Betty and Barney Hill's story changed how the world thinks about UFOs. 🛸

Kathleen Marden is their niece - and she's spent her life proving their story was REAL.

For over THREE DECADES, Kathleen has worked hundreds of abduction cases, trained MUFON's field investigators, and sat across from thousands of people who say they've been taken. 

In this episode, she's telling us what the research actually shows.

Kathleen Marden is an internationally recognized UFO abduction researcher, author, and lecturer. She holds a BA from the University of New Hampshire, spent 10 years as MUFON's Director of Field Investigator Training, and another 10 as founder of their Experiencer Research Team. She's a recipient of the International UFO Congress Lifetime Achievement Award.

We get into the difference between credible research and internet noise, why the government has kept this hidden for 70+ years, and what happens in the room when someone remembers being abducted.

We also go through:

• What Trump's declassified UFO reports actually confirm
• Investigating her aunt and uncle's abduction case 😮
• Her honest reaction to the “Disclosure Day” movie
• Grays, Nordics, reptilians - who answers to who 👽
• “Screen memories” and why ETs show up as animals
• MUFON's legitimacy despite infiltration attempts
• Why abductions tend to run in families…
• Are the aliens interdimensional beings or us from the future? 🤔
  
  

Kathleen is one of the most credible voices in space/UFO theory - and she's just getting started.

Maggie Speaks grew up in Camden, South Carolina, played volleyball at NC State, and spent eight years as a professional athlete across Europe. She didn't even know pro volleyball existed until her senior year of college.

On December 23rd, one game before she was supposed to fly home for Christmas for the first time in six years, she suffered an open fracture dislocation of her ankle. Her first thought on the court was whether her career was over.

It wasn't.

Maggie joins me to talk about what it actually looks like to build a career in professional volleyball overseas, the reality of moving to a new country almost every year, what the injury taught her about identity and life outside the sport, and her new chapter with the Dallas Pulse in Major League Volleyball.

Dallas Pulse just won the MLV championship. Season starts in January on CBS Sports.

J.P. Hovey joins me in studio to talk producing Bussin' With The Boys, hosting Make It To Midnight, and co-hosting The Slice Tennis Podcast. Two South Carolina guys, one conversation about the world of podcasting and the future of human connection. 

J.P. shares the unglamorous origin story: working as a houseparent at IMG Academy, knocking on doors in Boca Raton, paying $600 a month rent thanks to a generous friend, and grinding through two years of loneliness before landing the Bussin' With The Boys gig through a chance connection with Michael Chandler.

Five years later, he's been cage-side at the UFC, on the field for College Football Playoff games, and interviewed guys he grew up idolizing. The conversation goes deep on the stuff most podcast interviews skip: 

• Turning 30 and what actually changes 
• The "strength of weak ties" and how every major break comes from someone you barely know 
• Why authenticity is going to win the next decade of media 
• The looming AI bubble and what happens when people start craving real human connection again 
• RFK's media strategy vs. pro-athletes who often want clips edited out 
• Why long-distance runners and pro tennis players are leaving millions on the table by ignoring their personal brand 
• The Michael Vick redemption arc 
• David Goggins, mogging, and how kids today are growing up in such a different world than we did
• J.P. also breaks down the vision for Make It To Midnight, a passion project built around a line his dad gave him during one of the hardest stretches of his life: "You just gotta make it to midnight every single day. You never know what could happen in the next 24 hours, but you've gotta show up for them."

In December 2021, John was scrolling through his phone deleting old photos when he found a 43-second video he had no memory of recording. The timestamp said 1:15 a.m. on June 12th, 2021. The footage shows what he believes to be the inside of a craft, multiple entities, and a cell tower at eye level.

This is episode 74, and it's a follow-up to John's first appearance on the show in episode 36 . This time he's joined by Matt Kellison, Florida State Director for MUFON and a retired US Coast Guard Chief Warrant Officer with 30 years of service, 2,000+ flight hours, and certification as an aircraft accident investigator. Matt spent 10 months and hundreds of hours building a full investigative report on John's video. We sat down to go through it.

We get into the cell tower math that places the camera roughly 130 feet from the tower lights instead of a quarter mile away. The "ceiling fan" object skeptics latch onto, and why the frame count rules it out. The entities John describes under regression, including grays, a frog-like being, and a reptilian figure he read as a scientist. The unexplained physics inside the craft. The metadata review that found no tampering. And what John believes the tall gray meant when it told him he has a job to do.

John is appearing under a pseudonym and his identity is not being shared.
Matt's full report is available in the link below and we encourage you to dig into it yourself.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1KueZo1bUGJiNEe9U1cE8XP0qm3bhq0Zi/view?usp=drivesdk

As both guests say throughout this conversation, the science comes first.

Paid protesters are real. Adam Swart has been paying them for 14 years.

Adam is the founder of Crowds on Demand, a firm that organizes political demonstrations, advocacy events, and public appearances for causes, companies, and campaigns across the country. In this conversation, he pulls back the curtain on an industry most people don't know exists and makes the case that what he does is more transparent than most of what happens in politics.

We get into how the business started, who the clients are, what protesters actually get paid, and where the line is between legitimate advocacy and manipulation. We also talk January 6th, federal entrapment, foreign influence in domestic protests, and the transparency bill Adam is pushing in Congress that would require full disclosure of funders behind any organized demonstration.

This is not a conspiracy theory. This is a business. And this episode explains exactly how it works.
