We dive deep into the "mystery" of running for office—from the reality of door-knocking at 6:30 PM to the bizarre world of gerrymandered districts that split neighborhoods (and even universities) in half.We also go down a few rabbit holes on global power structures, the influence of central banking, and the concept of "middle management revolts" happening worldwide. Whether we're talking about the transition from scarcity to abundance or the impact of drone warfare, we’re looking for the truth behind the headlines.

Drones, Defense, and the Deep Reality of Energy
Tonight, it's just me and Colin diving into some truly wild developments happening right in our own backyard. We start with the recent airspace shutdowns over New Mexico and the unveiling of the Coyote Block 3NK—a non-kinetic "super weapon" designed to take out drone swarms. Is it signal jamming, localized EMPs, or something even more advanced?
We go down the rabbit hole on:
The tech behind the Coyote anti-drone system.
Secret aircraft spotted near Area 51 and White Sands.
The "Battle of Palmdale" and its ties to UFO lore.
A deep dive into baseline physics: Are our current models of the universe completely wrong?
The future of energy, from micro-nuclear reactors to the mystery of "dark matter."
It's a wide-ranging conversation about how the world (and the universe) actually works behind the scenes.

Dive deep into one of the most shadowy chapters of post-WWII history in this eye-opening episode of The Turning: Down the Rabbit Hole. Retired U.S. Air Force Colonel Roxane Towner-Watkins joins host Cody Bakewell to share her remarkable 30-year military journey—from enlisting as one of the first women in aircraft maintenance to high-level roles at the Pentagon and CENTCOM—and her “red pill” awakening to hidden global power structures.

The focus: Operation Gladio, NATO’s clandestine stay-behind networks created after World War II to counter potential Soviet invasions. Colonel Towner-Watkins unpacks how these secret armies, armed and funded by the CIA and Western intelligence, allegedly evolved into tools for the “strategy of tension”—orchestrating false flags, domestic terrorism, and political manipulation in Europe and beyond to suppress leftist movements, fund both communism and fascism, and maintain control.

We explore:

•  Historical connections: Ratlines, CIA ops outside U.S. government oversight, international syndicates, and funding of extremism.

•  Modern implications: The “deep state,” cultural control tactics, government complicity in movements like Antifa (with Minnesota as a key hub), challenges for grassroots activism and conservative outreach to younger voters, the influence of big-money donors on factions like the Trump movement, and why nations like Russia and China have resisted Western destabilization efforts.

•  Key concepts: Chaos as a tool for control, the evolution of military/intelligence operations, and the uncertain future of global power dynamics.

Sound bites that hit hard:

•  “They name things very Orwellian.”

•  “The CIA infiltrated Tibet.”

•  “You don’t have to be a parent.” (on broader societal control)

This is essential listening for anyone interested in military history, international politics, CIA operations, Cold War secrets, NATO, deep state structures, political activism, global power dynamics, and historical research.
