Charlie Kirk Assassination: False Flag or Political Martyr? | Karel Cast 25-122

Charlie Kirk was assassinated in public in Utah, and the fallout is tearing the nation apart. MAGA immediately weaponized the killing, labeling the shooter a radical left activist without evidence, fueling division and anger. The President quickly blamed the left—something he did not do when lawmakers were murdered in their homes just a month ago.

So, was...

đŸ”„ Social Media Uprising: Can Gen Z Save America? | Karel Cast 25-122

From the streets of the U.S. to the protests in Nepal, social media is fueling revolutions around the world. In Nepal, Gen Z forced their Prime Minister to resign after TikTok was banned — proving the power of digital activism. But what about America’s youth? Will Gen Z rise up to reclaim their future, or remain glued to their screens until it’s too late?

Why the Epstein Files Don’t Matter Anymore | Karel Cast 25-121

We already know the truth: Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein were close friends, and there’s more than enough evidence pointing toward Trump’s misconduct. But here’s the problem—MAGA doesn’t care. No matter how much proof is presented, they refuse to believe it. So why are Democrats still chasing Epstein files as if they’ll change anything? Until there’s a criminal convic...

Proof America Is Splitting Apart | Karel Cast 25-120

The writing has been on the wall since the 1800s—America may be headed for divorce court. From the new Western Alliance for Healthcare to growing political, cultural, and economic divides, we could be witnessing the first steps toward a fractured nation. Will this split be peaceful, or will it bring chaos and conflict?

We’ll also talk about the backlash I’ve faced from the trans co...

RFK Jr & Vaccine Denial: Why He’s Dangerous for America đŸ‡ș🇾 | Karel Cast 25-119

Vaccines aren’t political—until politicians like RFK Jr make them partisan. I know firsthand the importance of questioning medicine, but let’s be honest: vaccines save lives. The data is clear, the science is proven, and yet RFK Jr and red states like Florida are trying to make vaccine mandates illegal.
The problem? Diseases don’t stay contained. His...

Trump’s Health Questions Grow: Why Isn’t the Media Asking? | Karel Cast 25-118
Donald Trump vanishes for days at a time, his legs appear swollen from venous insufficiency, and his hands often look bruised. At nearly 80 years old, these could be normal signs of aging — or indicators of something more serious.
Trump and MAGA made Biden’s health fair game, yet the media stays largely silent on Trump’s visible health struggles. Why the d...

No Middle Ground Left: Why Debate Has Become All or Nothing | Karel Cast 118

In today’s America, there’s no middle ground anymore. Yesterday, I — a proud, gay activist with trans family members — was labeled a transphobe simply for having a nuanced opinion about trans athletes and transitioning timelines. Instead of discussion, the immediate reaction was to attack.
Even Governor Gavin Newsom has faced backlash from the extreme left f...

The Real Threat: Straight Male Violence vs. Trans Scapegoating | Karel Cast 25-117

The right is in an uproar after a trans Catholic school shooter in Minneapolis killed two people — using it as “proof” that trans people are dangerous. But let’s look at the facts: only 2 killings by trans people this year vs. 244 killings by cisgender straight men. And tragically, 28 trans people have been murdered in 2025 alone — mostly by straight ...

Evil Triumphs When Good Stay Silent | America’s Crisis of Cowardice đŸ‡șđŸ‡žâš ïž
Every day in America, evil is winning — not because it’s stronger, but because good people stay silent. A vocal minority pushes tyranny, ignorance, and hate while Congress, corporations, and even judges remain quiet. From fat-shaming debates over airline seats to outrage over a Cracker Barrel logo, it seems all you have to do is bark long enough and loud enou...

Are Fat People Really To Blame? | Southwest Airlines, Incivility & America’s Compassion Crisis ✈

Southwest Airlines is requiring plus-sized passengers to buy two seats so they “don’t spill over.” But here’s the real question: why not just design a few rows of larger seats? Instead, society blames fat people for being fat, ignoring the bigger issue — an industry and culture that lack compassion.

I Want More Than Rainbow Sidewalks | Equal Rights, Not Empty Gestures 🌈đŸ‡ș🇾

Florida and other states are painting over rainbow sidewalks — but here’s the truth: LGBTQ+ Americans don’t need symbolic gestures. We need equal rights, protection under the law, and an economy that works for everyone.

This episode of the Karel Cast calls out politicians like DeSantis who focus on erasing symbols instead of fixing real problems. Equality is...

Start Living or Get to Dying: The Fight for America’s Future | Karel Cast 25-113

America feels stuck in a downward spiral—dictatorship knocking at the door, a Congress and Supreme Court unwilling to stop it, and citizens paralyzed by the nonstop barrage of criminality and chaos. But survival isn’t enough—we must actually live.

So what do we do when it feels like every action ends in futility? What can liberal Americans do when democr...

AI Proves Social Media Is Destroying Us | Karel Cast 25-112

AI just confirmed what we already feared: social media is toxic by design. Platforms aren’t about connection — they’re echo chambers of rage, built to make us hate-scroll, click ads, and consume endless misinformation.

Even more shocking? Scientists tested a social media network made entirely of bots. They tried fixes like chronological feeds, flagging, and more. The results...

Entertainment Is Broken: Why TV, Movies, and Radio Have Lost Their Soul | Karel Cast 25-112

The entertainment industry is collapsing under its own weight.
‱ MSNBC is rebranding to MS NOW (My Source: News, Opinion, World) — but who asked for this? Certainly not viewers. This is another corporate boardroom decision with zero connection to the audience.
‱ Streaming services keep raising prices while serving us endless hours of junk. Qual...

Being human means being conflicted — and today I’m tackling two issues that have me torn.
First: SNAP benefits may soon exclude snack foods, sodas, and chips. On one hand, we face an obesity crisis and need healthier choices. On the other, should poor people be policed on what they can eat while the wealthy buy whatever they want?
Second: Algorithms are shaping how we see race. Why do viral videos often show Black people “acting out,...

Should Trump Represent Earth to Aliens? First Contact in 2025? | Karel Cast

What if humanity’s first meeting with extraterrestrial life happened next year — and Donald Trump was the one to represent us? With the interstellar object 3I Atlas heading our way in November, passing close to Jupiter, Mars, and even Earth, some scientists speculate it could be more than just space debris. Could it be a probe from another civilization? And ...

What if your dreams aren’t just random stories — what if they’re messages from your future? There’s mounting scientific evidence that precognition is real. From gut feelings that come true to vivid dreams that predict events, researchers are exploring whether our consciousness might be “time traveling” — entangling on a quantum level with ou...

After Over 2000 Years Restaurants Are Dying | Karel Cast 25-109

For over 2,000 years, restaurants have been places to connect, celebrate, and explore new flavors — from ancient Greek taverns to Parisian cafĂ©s. But today, America’s dining scene is in crisis. In the first half of 2025, restaurants and bars saw one of the weakest six-month sales periods in a decade. Food costs are up over 20% since 2021, and some of my favorite spots h...

đŸ¶ Why Are Americans So Anti-Dog in Public? | Karel Cast 25-108
Dogs at the grocery store? Farmer’s market? Restaurant? In other countries, it’s normal. In America, it’s a problem. But why? Today on the Karel Cast, we unpack a viral story out of San Francisco where people are outraged over well-behaved dogs being allowed in public spaces. Yet, research shows dogs lower stress, aid healing, and enhance well-being in hospitals and nur...
