David Tice is a geopolitical strategist and producer / director of the eye opening documentary ‘Grid Down, Power Up.’ David came on to tell us about the unbelievable vulnerabilities of the U.S. power grid. Electricity–it's cheap, fast, and readily available across most of the world. We rely on electricity to survive, yet most of us take it for granted. While we've gotten comfortable, a disaster has been brewing with every light switch flipped. It's not a matter of "if" but "when" the grid will fail. David reveals that not only has the United States invested very little in its power grid infrastructure since the 1950s, but power companies are actively lobbying to provide as little protection and updates to the grid as possible. We get into how adversaries like China & Russia have openly plotted against the U.S. by way of implicating our grid and even how numerous homegrown attacks against vital electrical infrastructure has flown under the radar or at worst–purposefully ignored. We're doing something special with this episode: giving YOU a way to get involved and make an impact. We're asking our audience to visit https://griddownpowerup.com/participate/ and take direct action to contact your legislators & regulators.

1 in 5 children in the United States will be sexually exploited online. Every 9 minutes, Child Protective Services finds evidence of child sexual abuse. 93% of victims know the perpetrator. These are horrifying and sobering statistics that drove the Shawn Ryan Show to expose this topic–this is where Ryan Montgomery comes in. Ryan is the #1 "ethical hacker" in the world and it's a title he's earned by infiltrating websites that host child exploitation and exposing the predators that run rampant there. Ryan takes us into the underbelly of this dark-web hidden world and lights it up in real time. During the filming of this show, Ryan ran a mini-sting operation from his laptop in a chatroom, posing as a teen–it took less than 60 seconds for a predator to take the bait. This episode is a cold, hard look at the pervasive problem that is child exploitation. Although it's difficult to stomach, we do believe that this episode will educate parents and save thousands of children. Ryan has dedicated his life to saving human life via his treatment center for those with addiction and by forcing this vile topic into the light. We are honored to share his message.

Episode #50 is one of the most important interviews you'll ever hear. Chris Beck is a retired Navy Seal with 20 years service & 15 deployments under his belt. Even with his Bronze Star with Valor, Chris wasn't only known for his skills behind the trigger, but for his brilliance in technology and engineering.

Despite all of his accomplishments, Chris was facing demons in private. TBIs, PTSD, and a traumatic childhood sent Chris down a path to find out who he truly was.

It’s laughable at the FBI even charge this now because of violating someone civil rights. I have to say in 2023 with all the information coming out about the laptop from Hunter Biden and the Twitter files they have violated hundreds of millions of people civil rights how much time are they gonna get or will they not even get probation

I live in Saint Paul a few miles from where the Gorge Floyd riots started on University Ave. I could see the smoke and fires even at midnight. The next day I went there and stopped counting at 27 businesses burned to the ground. It was crazy how many businesses were boarded up with plywood with paint stating that they were minority owned and when the next riots started they got nurses and destroyed also. The amount of minority owned businesses that got burned and destroyed because a POS cop murdered a minority is mind blowing.

I do not understand why we didn’t drop bombs and launch missiles to destroy as much of our equipment as possible before, during, and after the pull out. That should have been a minimum requirement

What a crazy coincidence that they were the worst team and that it was all leaderships fault and then he takes over the team goes to a terrorist infested part of the country and people complain that the fighting was too hard and again it’s leaderships fault…. I have never even served let alone been a Navy seal but I have been around my fair share of people that blame everyone but themselves for their misery and this whole thing sounds very familiar. Thankfully no one had tried to ruin everything I’ve ever worked for and send me to prison for life because they suck. Sorry this happened to you and I’m glad you make it out the other side and able to prove your innocence.

There’s roughly 50 million police interaction a year with police each year. With around 50 unarmed citizens killed that’s a ratio of 1:1,000,000. Statistically that’s pretty much zero. Compare that ratio of 1:59 of men in the US will develop pancreatic cancer during his lifetime. That’s just one type of cancer.

That video really made me think that cops is that situation need the full force of the law crashed onto shitty cops. A major over haul NEEDS to happen to make sure the shitty cops can’t be free and a system for the good cops to call out the bad ones and be hailed hero’s and not fired and shunned for doing the right thing.

I think turning all the vets that come home and haven’t been able to find a purpose should have something like this do with their life. If we were able to say turn our infantry vets that want to put their skills to work against child predators and fentanyl dealers would save SO many lives.

We have sent Ukraine 3X what their GDP is and they can’t put boots on their feet and get them Med kits? Their unwillingness to even give their soldiers a basic level of training and have the mindset of “we are willing to do whatever it takes. We are doing whatever it takes” blows my mind. I don’t know a ton about Ukraine but it blows my mind that they have the mindset they do. Coming from my American mindset I just don’t get it but I’m ignorant of their upbringing so can’t put myself in their shoes because of that. I guess it’s just a much different culture
