About this listen

Boiler Room, custom designed for media maniacs, savants, bar fly philosophers and otherwise lovable political animals.

The show that straps itself to a rocket like Wiley Coyote and lights the fuse every Thursday night, ready to blast off into the media sphere with news, pop culture, music, movies, deep state politics, false flag research, pulling the threads on phony stories and propaganda where we find them. Science, tech, philosophy, social engineering, the degeneracy of the progressives, the falsity of the right left paradigm… you name it we’ve probably threw up on it during one of our parties.Copyright Alternate Current Radio

    Peace, Inc. — Brought to You by the Department of War

    As the language of empire shifts, so does its strategy.In this episode of Boiler Room, we examine the emerging contradiction at the heart of the so-called “new world order”: the quiet move toward renaming the U.S. Department of Defense as the Department of War, while simultaneously promoting global “Boards of Peace,” councils, and stability frameworks meant to manage conflict in an age of permanent war.Is this transparency — or rebranding?

    From peacekeeping to stabilization, from rules-based order to managed decline, we break down how war is no longer hidden, but normalized — and how peace itself is being repackaged as a bureaucratic product, granted conditionally and enforced selectively.

    This isn’t about ending war.

    It’s about standardizing it.Tonight’s discussion includes:• The end of “defense” as a euphemism

    • Peace as governance, not resolution
    • Boards, councils, and the rise of managerial empire
    • Pax Americana 2.0 in a multipolar world
    • Language, power, and the normalization of permanent conflict

  • When Propaganda Blinks
    Jan 19 2026
    There are moments when power hesitates — not because it’s confused, and not because it’s honest — but because it assumes it no longer has to explain itself.This episode of Boiler Room examines that moment.Broadcast live from Central Texas, host Bryan “Hesher” McClain is joined by Adam “Ruckus” Clark for a long-form breakdown of a week defined by narrative overreach, information saturation, and the growing difficulty of separating signal from psychological operations.From escalating rhetoric surrounding Iran and unverifiable reports of mass casualties, to the quiet normalization of AI integration into military systems, to domestic crowd-control preparations and raw political optics caught on camera, the discussion traces a single through-line: modern propaganda no longer collapses cleanly — it blinks.When credibility becomes collateral damage, saturation replaces persuasion, and consent is assumed rather than earned, the cracks begin to show.Topics covered include:Escalation narratives and information warfare surrounding IranViral imagery, casualty claims, and the credibility gap between speed and verificationGrok and the normalization of AI inside military and classified networksTechnocracy, dual-use technology, and the consolidation of powerNational Guard “response forces,” civil unrest planning, and historical precedentMedia degradation, AI-generated deception, and epistemic collapsePolitical optics unraveling in unscripted momentsDisaster narratives, pattern recognition, and the limits of skepticismThis episode is not about debunking individual headlines — it’s about recognizing patterns of behavior when authority stops whispering and starts rushing.Boiler Room remains a space for critical analysis, open-source scrutiny, and conversations that resist narrative management — especially when the information environment itself is unstable.Reference Links:Ice Breaker: Matt Damon Says Netflix Wants Plots Reiterated “Three or Four Times in the Dialogue” for Phone-Distracted ViewersPentagon taps Elon Musk’s AI “Grok” for military useUS Taxpayers will pay $83 BILLION to build Venezuela’s oil infrastructure to benefit oil companies & Israeli billionairesThe allegedly siezed Starlink gear (Iran)Trump got pissed off at heckler with legitimate grievance and gave him the birdTrump’s new defense plan quietly creates a National Guard “response force” trained for crowd control and civil unrestDavid Icke on “Wildfires Currently Raging in Argentina’s Patagonia Region Could Be A 15-Minute City Arson Job Similar to Malibu and Maui”Can’t Trust the internet anymore – Real time AI Deep Fake tech improves to the point of practically indistinguishable Support:Support BOILER ROOM & ACRPatreon (Join and become a member)Shop BOILER ROOM Merch Store

  • Goodbye Illusions — Welcome to Open Empire
    Jan 11 2026
    The year 2026 begins with the end of pretense.

    In this kickoff episode of Boiler Room, host Bryan “Hesher” McClain is joined by Adam “Ruckus” Clark, Bazed-Lit Analyzer, Mystical Pharaoh, and Mark Anderson to examine what can no longer be denied: the transition from covert influence to open empire.

    As Venezuela becomes the focal point of overt regime-change language—justified openly by energy control and corporate interests—the illusion of “rules-based order” collapses in real time. From U.S. officials admitting the real motives at the UN, to media outlets reframing intervention as necessity, the show traces how empire now speaks plainly.

    But this isn’t just a foreign policy story.The same logic driving intervention abroad is returning home: militarized enforcement, narrative warfare, AI-driven propaganda, and government behavior increasingly treated as spectacle—甚至 wagered on in real-time prediction markets.

    From the symbolic death of MTV to deepfake politics, from Greenland to Cuba, from ICE violence to betting on press briefings, this episode sets the tone for the year ahead.

    No illusions.
    No euphemisms.
    No disguises.Welcome to open empire.
