Altered State S3 Ep. 23: Tariff Meltdowns, Groomer Teachers & The Great Gas Panic

Brad Zerbo and Zak “RedPill78” Paine return for another wild ride through the week’s cultural and geopolitical chaos, serving up equal parts fire, fun, and unfiltered reality checks. Kicking off with the media’s financial fear porn over Trump’s tariffs, the duo dismantles the narrative around 401k freakouts, explain why temporary market dips are strategic, not catastrophic, and blast the short-sightedness of panicked influencers playing into regime psyops.

They also go deep on the societal rot surfacing in schools, discussing the disturbing rise in predatory teacher cases, the collapse of moral standards in public education, and the funding incentives that may be enabling abuse. From the UN’s third-world equalization agenda to U.S. tax dollars funding gender surgeries abroad, Brad and Zak call out the corrupt system that’s abandoned the American people, while forcing them to pay the tab.

Plus, a hilarious Norm Macdonald tribute, rants about Gematria rabbit holes, gas tax insanity, and why the Great American Restoration is more than a movement...it’s a revival. Raw, real, and rolling deep in the fourth turning, this is Altered State at full throttle.
