On this episode, Matt, Jason, and Don sit down with comedian, podcaster, and truth-seeker Sam Tripoli—a veteran stand-up comic and the host of Tin Foil Hat, Broken Simulation, and Zero podcasts. Sam has spent years pulling back the curtain on the elite’s manipulation of society, the corporate press’ narrative control, and the psychological warfare used to keep the masses in line.

We dive deep into how society has a tendency to follow liars and thieves, blindly trusting authority while rejecting inconvenient truths. We discuss how people fight back when their perceived enemy is in power but go right back to sleep once “their guy” is in charge—making the cycle of corruption and control nearly impossible to break. From the MAGA movement cheering on globalist initiatives like Stargate to the normalization of mass surveillance and AI-driven technocracy, we explore the ways in which the illusion of choice keeps people stuck in the matrix.

Sam brings his signature humor to the heavy topics of political deception, media manipulation, and the creeping rise of the technocratic police state. Despite the bleakness, we find a silver lining—acknowledging that waking people up doesn’t always require direct confrontation. As Sam points out, comedy has the power to break down cognitive dissonance and allow people to process difficult truths in a way they wouldn’t otherwise.

Tune in for a compelling mix of humor, critical thinking, and unfiltered discourse, as they navigate through today's headlines with an eye towards awakening the sleeping lions of society. Whether you're here for the laughs or the liberty, this episode is sure to enlighten and entertain.
