The Empathy Trap: John C Reilly, Algae Freaks, and Tough Love 6/23/26 Jun 24, 2026

Show notes

Tonight we're taking a closer look at the growing debate over empathy, compassion, and whether good intentions can sometimes produce disastrous results. From John C. Reilly's viral comments about empathy as a "superpower" to the increasing inability for people to disagree on anything. We'll also examine modern parenting, discipline, peaceful parenting philosophies, and ask whether a culture built entirely around feelings is creating stronger people—or more fragile ones. Open lines throughout the night.

The Truth Is Hard To Edit | Christopher Knowles 6/22/26 Jun 23, 2026

Show notes

Tonight, Christopher Knowles ( https://linktr.ee/secretsunblog ) returns to Quite Frankly for a conversation about narratives, memory, and the strange gap between reality and the stories we're told. From World Cup visitors discovering an America that doesn't match decades of media portrayals, to reports of classic television shows being quietly altered for streaming platforms, to the rise of liminal-space horror and questions surrounding political authenticity in a post-USAID world—we'll explore what happens when lived experience collides with curated reality. Is the truth becoming harder to suppress, or are we simply noticing the edits?

Forgotten Futures & Hidden History | Luminary Lighthouse 6/18/26 Jun 19, 2026

Show notes

I had an article I found last year about AIRSHIP start-ups that were beginning to re-emerge. I don't know how well it will catch on, but it created the perfect reason to introduce to the audience a new friend of Quite Frankly, Logan of @LuminaryLighthouse (Youtube & IG). Logan's work centers around asking big questions about some of the more dubious stories about lost World's Fair technologies, old world architecture, and even the lost timeline where Airships ruled the skies.

We've Gone To WAR For Less: UK Grooming Gangs & California Gay Certified 6/17/26 Jun 18, 2026

Show notes

There has been a horrific follow up report published that covers the industrial scale grooming/abuse networks we have been tracking out of once-British cities for years, and the findings are worse than you can imagine. California contributes another insane web game to "Pride Month" headlines, as they designate funds for Gay businesses...funds that require certification of gayness. Updates on the interesting rift forming between Trump and Israel as the Iran War is hopefully almost at an end, and time for as many Calls, Super Chats, and Reels as we can fit into the remainder!

What World Is Being Built? | Rogue News & Open Lines 6 16 26 Jun 17, 2026

Show notes

Out friends from Rogue News are joining us in the first half as I am curious how they see the deal that is coming together in Iran, and what path this paves for the rest of President Trump's final term in office. Plenty more on tap for the rest of the evening, both with the guest and after: Chinese AI Toilets, an update on The Line project in Saudi Arabia, JD Vance tap dancing with the dummies from The View, and more!

Show notes

Author Don Jeffries returns to the show to remember a friend, and dish on memory-holed history.

America Through New Eyes & The Fragile Reality Problem | J Gulinello 6/11/26 Jun 12, 2026

Show notes

It is one week after the 2026 Spring Fling and I am bring back J Gulinello of HealthReclamationProject.com against his will to talk about it for a little while, analyze my in-body scan results, and then have some fun with a pile of topics that I hoping really hook the audience. The America 250 Concert was cancelled because a bunch of washed-up liberals couldn't put country before their hatred of Donald Trump, so tonight we're going to make fun of those who abandoned ship and work on a new set list that would be even better...then, as perspective, we look at America through the eyes of some of the international soccer players who are seeing our country for the first time as they prepare for the World Cup. As extras we have Coma Dream submissions, we have a few other reality-bending mental conditions I would like to throw into the loop, and Lord knows what else pops up along the way!

The Lost Colony of Roanoke & Ireland Uproar | Scott Dawson 6/10/26 Jun 11, 2026

Show notes

Scott Dawson is a historian and an author whose research has produced riveting work debunking the myth of the Lost Colony of Roanoke...was it actually lost? We are going to go back 400 years to pick apart a story we all heard in school in one form or another as it is one of the lynchpins of early American history. In the second half we'll turn our gaze to the anger that is being violently expressed in the streets of Belfast. Is it a righteous anger? And what could possibly come of it?

What If The Delusion Was Real? | Daydreams, Comas & Open Lines 6/9/26 Jun 10, 2026

Show notes

Going to do a little grab-bagging up front and then we'll welcome back Megan Fox for a big update in the Bricks and Minifigs/Reckless Ben LEGO saga...from there we'll segway into the dreamy part of this evening's program. I read a pair of articles recently that pulled a lot of thoughts together for a show—one that I hope taps into the collective memories and experiences of the audience. An interesting study on daydreaming lead me to a coma dream case in which a girl lives a whole second life while she was "away", and when she awoke, she was desperate to find her three children that she cared for in the other world. I'd like to spin this all into a topic of not only dreams that felt real, but how we construct reality itself...and how much, if at all, are these experiences tied to something much more real than we can imagine?

Weekend Recap, Spielberg's Warning & The Things That Never Change 6/8/26 Jun 09, 2026

Show notes

The Spring Fling weekend was another dream come true, and whereas I will save the majority of my thoughts for Thursday night when J returns, I must acknowledge how grateful I am for the time spent with such exceptional people. Then we're into some parts of the news cycle from the weekend, which includes more mixed messages from the Iran War, a clear message from Stephen Spielberg for "The Church", and an all-too-familiar vote-counting situation in Los Angeles, and a genius idea to remedy urban "food deserts" in New York. Then i want take some calls before we welcome Mike Baldwin (MikeIsFunny.com) to talk about a thread I was contemplating on Tumblr the other night about common joys, annoyances, etc, that make the human experience a unified one over the course of ages.
