episode Collab with Tracer Burnout cover

Collab with Tracer Burnout

The Army is making major changes—and not everyone’s on board. In this episode, we sit down with Tracer Burnout to break down the latest Army updates, including alcohol in DFACs, autonomous food systems, changes to the Army Combat Fitness Test (ACFT), and the growing role of social media influencers in the military. We dive into how these new Army policies impact discipline, military culture, unit cohesion, and recruitment—plus what these changes mean for active duty soldiers, veterans, and the future of the U.S. Army. From DFAC beer and wine policies to fitness standards and resilience, this is an unfiltered look at what’s really happening behind the scenes. Featuring Dan and Roger from Tracer Burnout, this conversation covers military life, leadership challenges, and the reality of adapting to constant change in today’s armed forces.

episode Power, Corruption and Strategy; Mexico's Turning Point cover

Power, Corruption and Strategy; Mexico's Turning Point

In this eye-opening episode, we unpack the recent fall of El Mencho and reveals Mexico’s ongoing chaos. This is a complex web of power, influence, and conspiracy that could reshape your understanding of Mexico and the U.S. relationship. Explore the cause-and-effect behind Mexico’s escalating violence, tracing history from the PRI’s control to today’s brutal turf wars. We break down how U.S. policies like Plan Mexico fueled the chaos and questions whether political corruption has become so intertwined with organized crime that governments themselves are disguised cartels. You’ll discover how leaders like AMLO and his successors may be complicit or manipulated, and what lies beneath the surface of headlines about cartel takedowns. We dive into shocking theories— from alleged blackmail files featuring Hollywood elites to leaders being myths. Whether you’re a geopolitical junkie, a concerned citizen, or simply curious about the unseen forces shaping the headlines, this episode offers critical insights you won’t find elsewhere.
