Provoked with Darryl Cooper and Scott HortonEP:27 - The Christmas Truce of 1914Darryl Cooper & Scott Horton dissect Ben Shapiro's most recent
attack on Tucker Carlson and Ben's weaselly political maneuvering. They
discuss the escalating tensions between the US and Venezuela, fueled by
Trump’s statements, stressing the importance of fact over speculation
and the need for public dissent against foreign interventions like this
one. They also touch on media manipulation and the Trump
administration's detachment from public sentiment.
Reflecting on the Christmas Truce of World War I, they champion unity
among diverse groups who oppose militarism despite differences on other
issues. Widespread public dissent remains a powerful tool against the
regime, wh...

They address how far Hezbollah's network of support has grown and why.

This episode examines the wider ecosystem behind the Epstein Israel ties, showing how backchannels, deniable intermediaries, and offshore money pipelines shape global policy far beyond the headlines.Scott and Darryl break down key details the mainstream rarely touches: Ehud Barak’s connection to Epstein, the rise of Unit 8200–adjacent tech ventures, and the financial strategies perfected during Iran-Co...

Shapiro & LevinThe outrage machine took a clipped quote and turned it into a trial of character. So instead of ducking the fire, we walked straight in and asked tougher questions: What choices did Churchill really make in 1939 and 1940—and what did they cost Europe? Where were the off-ramps? How did British strategy, propaganda, and bombing doctrine fuel escalation? And why does that history still matter when you scroll your phone today and see Gaza in ruins?Cooper draws a line from the myths of World War II to the way narratives are managed now—from algo...

Scott Horton and Daryl Cooper take us on a journey through the collapsing facade of post-Cold War unipolarity, revealing how traditional geopolitical forces are reasserting themselves across the globe.What happens when countries once again must interact as genuine equals rather than subordinates to American power? The evidence is mounting - from South Asia to the Middle East - that we're witnessing the end of what Scott and Daryl call "a long vacation from history" where consequences for American failures seemed perpetually delayed.

👉 Ukraine War: How ultranationalist forces, like Azov Battalion founder Andrei Beletsky, are rising in wartime—and why peace talks with Russia in 2022 were derailed by Western interference, prolonging the Ukraine–Russia conflict.

The Martyr Made PodcastImmigration Discussion w/Lafayette Lee, Indian Bronson, and Dr. Ben BraddockHey everyone. A few days ago, I posted a Twitter thread to explain a comment I had made on the topic of immigration. Essentially, I said that I thought we’d passed the threshold where any meaningful reform was really possible at the federal level, and that people would be better off focusing their political efforts on states and localities that are winnable and defensible. The thread drew the ire of immigration hawks on right-wing Twitter, and so I thought I’d bring in a few interesting guys with different perspectives to discuss it.My guests today are...

The Martyr Made PodcastMartyrMade #22 - Whose America? ep. 1: Rough ExtractionIn August 1921, 10,000-20,000 armed coal miners marched on Mingo County, West Virginia to lift the martial law imposed there, free their jailed brethren, and avenge the assassination of one of their local heroes. At least 20,000 more wives, young boys and other civilians followed the army providing medical, logistical and other services. Before it was over, they would storm a mountainside under fire from entrenched machine guns, and while being bombed from the air. It was the largest and most serious armed insurrection in US history since the Civil War. This episode is going to discuss the West Virginia Coal...

Young revolutionaries do combat with Zionist elder statesmen for the soul of the movement. Hitler's German Reich and Stalin's Soviet Union do battle for Europe while everything between them is ground into the mud. Victims become victimizers, and the wider world gets an introduction to the dispute that has been confounding the British Empire for 20 years.
