00:00:00 – Storms, Sleep & Studio Power
Mike opens with an eight-hour power outage recap, generator logistics, and a running gag about terrible sleep ("maybe aliens"), setting a punchy, sleep-deprived mood.
00:10:00 – Skinwalker Ranch: The "Bubble" Returns
Season recap kicks off: the ranch's 200-meter-wide "bubble" over the Triangle scrambles GPS, knocks out electronics, and throws radiation spikes; lidar suggests a defined volume.
00:20:00 – Eyes in the Sky: A Daily Satellite Pass
The team partners with a SpaceX integrator to loft a dedicated smallsat that will pass the ranch daily, augmenting drones, rockets, and choppers in the hunt for energy anomalies and UAPs.
00:30:00 – Mesa Mystery: 1960s Dig, Ceramics & Kecksburg
A weird manufactured "ceramic" found ~200 feet inside the mesa behaves like a superconductor; a 1964 coin hints the site was dug decades ago. Mike ties it to the 1965 Kecksburg "acorn" and a wider 60s test program.
00:40:00 – Operation… Brain Fog?
Detour into historic U.S. Army aerosol tests (San Francisco, St. Louis rooftops), used to argue military secrecy isn't unprecedented; show phones open; YouTube recording hiccups noted.
00:50:00 – Portals, GPS Glitches & Remote Viewers
Three big frameworks for Skinwalker: interdimensional/"portal," trickster intelligence, and covert tech. Reported GPS oddities, "gateways under the mesa," and remote viewers' sketches feed the theories.
01:00:00 – The Drone That Mutilates Cattle
Remote-viewing thread lands on a robotic, possibly interdimensional—but military-linked—"drone" behind cattle mutilations. Wild, but on-brand for the ranch.
01:10:00 – Doomscrolling… on the Throne
News riff: celebrity asides lead to a study on phone use in the bathroom and hemorrhoids; the crew roasts toilet-time doomscrolling culture.
01:20:00 – "Smart" Thermostats, Dumb Idea? (Ohio)
A proposed Ohio peak-demand bill could let utilities nudge your thermostat and cycle appliances. Spirited rant about smart meters, heat waves, and control vs. reliability.
01:30:00 – Annabelle & A Death on Tour
Paranormal investigator's fatal heart attack while touring with the Annabelle doll sparks a talk about curses and how "dark forces" might push back.
01:40:00 – Breakdancing Against Property Taxes
Viral clip: a New Jersey candidate breakdances at a town meeting to protest tax hikes. The guys debate property taxes, fixed incomes, and optics—then keep chuckling at the moves.
01:50:00 – "Even the Experts Got Phished"
At Singapore's anti-fraud confab, a QR "gotcha" snares attendees; tangent into Southeast Asian scam compounds, Facebook Marketplace headaches, and hygiene tips for digital life.
02:00:00 – AI 'Slop' & The Human Touch
Segment on freelancers fixing botched AI logos and copy; Mike's rant about a friend's AI-generated article that read like "wall-to-wall trash" underscores why craft still matters.
02:10:00 – Late-Night Stream, Early-Morning Blackout
After-show vibes: Mike recalls a midnight stream that died in a wide local power outage—no clear cause from the utility—then winds down for the week.
