A look at the year so far with a focus on Venezuela, Iran and the Freedom Movement.

The Ashes - A Secret History of War by Other Means

In Victorian England, it was decided that it would be best for the human desire for conflict to play out on the sports field rather than in the streets of the colonies. They called this Rational Recreation, and cricket became the way to instill into their subjects 'British Values' of gentlemanly conduct, sportsmanship and most importantly.. knowing that you can and will always be beaten by the English.

But what happens when the master gets beaten in his own house? He is cremated, condemned to a tiny little urn. Rational Recreation becomes an Irrational Obsession to fight for ownership of that urn every two years for eternity.

WARNING: The following is an extremely bias Australian take on the worlds fist and oldest sporting rivalry, the bi-annual series of test cricket played between Australia and England known as The Ashes.

In the third chapter of our investigation, we map the birth of the modern privatized intelligence networks. This is the story of "The Men Who Sold The World."

From 1995 to September 10th, 2001, a new form of power consolidated itself in the shadows. Elite spies from MI6 and the CIA left the public sector to found corporate intelligence empires like Hakluyt and Diligence, becoming the unaccountable army for a global oligarchy centered around firms like The Carlyle Group.

We follow their trail of manufactured chaos, from the terror of the Moscow apartment bombings to the deep, tangled relationships between their patrons in the Khashoggi network and the rising threat of Osama bin Laden. We expose how this same machine executed a political coup in Florida during the 2000 election, ensuring their man was in the White House for the crisis they knew was coming. And we are forced to ask: where was Jeffrey Epstein in all of this? Was his network of sexual blackmail merely a coincidence, or was it the social and political glue that held this entire dark enterprise together?

Part 2 of The Dirt Unit's deep dive into the Jeffrey Epstein network. In this episode, "The Council & The Crown," we expose Epstein's calculated infiltration of the American and British establishments during the critical period of the mid-1990s.

We uncover the real story behind Epstein's membership in the elite Council on Foreign Relations (CFR), his deep connections to the Clinton White House, and his relationship with Britain's Prince Andrew. We also investigate the dark history of his New York mansion and the operational significance of Ghislaine Maxwell's role in connecting Epstein to the highest levels of power.

This is the story of how a private intelligence operation, born from the ashes of the Iran-Contra and BCCI scandals and funded by the mysterious "Mega Group," successfully captured key nodes of Western power.

To understand the monster, you must first meet his makers.

Part 1 of The Epstein Files is a journey into the swamp that created him. We uncover the interconnected worlds of Adnan Khashoggi, the arms dealer who brokered secret wars; Robert Maxwell, the spy who ran a media empire; and Roy Cohn, the political fixer who taught a generation how to wield power.

This is the story of a failing, privatized deep state and the new, more ruthless machine that was built from its ashes. This is the story of Jeffrey Epstein's apprenticeship, and, as it happens, Donald Trump's.

Last episode we explored the eschatological underpinnings of Iran, Israel and the USA driving them toward conflict in the Middle East, but it left us with a burning question.. What's the deal with the Temple?

For millennia, this sacred space has been a source of immense spiritual power and wealth. Join us as we lay out it's entire history, from its genesis with King Solomon, to its capture by the warrior-banker monks of the Knights Templar, all the way through the empires that have risen and fallen fighting to possess it.

This is the story of the world's most contested piece of real estate.

Ok, buckle up, leave your preconceived notions at the door and let's have a proper look at the underlying elephant in the room in the conflict between Israel, Iran and America. This is a look at the mainstream explanations of the conflict from each side, combined with the Religious Zionism, Christian Zionism and Shia Islam, side by side, what they believe and what steps they are each following in an attempt to bring about the end times.

It's gonna end fine, I swear.

We looked at the rise and fall of the East India Company, but what came next? This episode, we tunnel into the diamond-encrusted heart of imperial ambition. The life, times, and frankly terrifying wills of Cecil Rhodes, a man who didn't just want to annexe countries, but the future itself. Discover how his dream of a secret society to ensure Anglo-Saxon global dominance was taken up by the formidable Alfred Milner and his "Kindergarten," evolving into the influential Round Table groups. We'll trace the money trail back to the ancient Square Mile – the City of London – and yes, we'll be mentioning the Rothschilds. It's the hidden architecture of early 20th-century power, laid bare. Grab your shovel.
