Jon Herold and Chris Paul dive into a packed episode full of narrative disruption and geopolitical intrigue. From the NATO command shuffle and Trump’s executive flex on security clearances to questions about the AutoPen, they connect the dots between the headlines and the real power plays. They take on the influencer class, the dangers of coordinated messaging, and why authenticity is the new resistance. Plus, the absurdity of the CIA’s JFK spin, a look at SpaceX vs. Boeing in the era of narrative defense, and why TikTok attention farmers might just be the saddest people on the internet.
