Electric China?
August 29, 2023 06:25 - 18 minutes - 25.3 MBAfter decades of having the worst air pollution in the world, the Chinese have discovered that this idea of 'all-electric, all the time' is not as simple as Democratic politicians make it out to be. Is there anything we can learn from the troubles they having... like, just maybe, NOT buying an electric car?

In the Shadow of Trump
August 26, 2023 03:35 - 14 minutes - 20.6 MBWith the first Republican presidential debate behind us, surely it's safe to say that there were no indications that anyone on the stage was likely to approach -- let alone surpass -- Donald Trump in next year's primaries. Meanwhile, in Georgia, the former President turns himself in for the most epic mugshot in history, further emphasizing how far ahead of the pack he is. Did he make a tactical -- or moral -- mistake by refusing to take part in the debates at all? Join our crack team of elit...
Hilary Got Wasted
August 24, 2023 05:01 - 15 minutes - 21.1 MBYes, and it's happened more times than you could count. Hurricane Hilary -- the first hurricane-level storm to strike the west coast in 84 years -- turned into (for Bill at least) about 24 hours of mild Florida rain. And every single drop of that desperately-needed, expensive and scarce FRESH WATER just flowed right through Los Angeles, as it always does, and then straight out into the Pacific... as it always does. How hard can this be, Governor Newsom? Join our crack team of elite anti-elit...
Fighter Jets
August 22, 2023 06:35 - 18 minutes - 25.7 MBFlakes on a Plane: the number of fistfights inside commercial aircraft cabins while in flight is approaching epidemic proportions. But in a world where scores of people can flash mob and destroy a department store and then walk out with $100,000 worth of stolen merchandise, or where entire cities are rendered uninhabitable by crime, homelessness and drug addiction... is this really much of a surprise?

The Stratosphere Lounge Episode 375 SPECIAL EDITION
August 20, 2023 06:29 - 2 hours - 203 MBWe could really, really use your help right now: https://billwhittle.com/donate-to-bill-whittle/ Oh, and Gary Sinise, Adam Baldwin and Tom Dreesen are CONFIRMED for the new interview show! More coming soon.
Oliver Anthony: Voice of a Generation
August 19, 2023 14:41 - 16 minutes - 22.9 MBAn utterly unknown singer/songwriter, recording with a single microphone and an acoustic guitar in his own back yard, now has the number one song in the nation and is about to surpass 25 MILLION views on YouTube. His name is Oliver Anthony, the song is 'Rich Men North of Richmond,' and the message is one that ALL politicians, from both parties, should (but probably won't) pay very close heed to, because Oliver Anthony is rapidly becoming the Voice of a Generation. The link to this remarkab...

Ham-Handed Surgeons
August 15, 2023 03:55 - 19 minutes - 26.9 MBMedicine -- especially surgical procedures -- has improved remarkably over the last century. But lately, three hour procedures have begun to take up to six hours. Why? Well, because an entire generation of young surgeons, raised on tablets and smart phones, simply do not possess the manual dexterity of their screw-turning, sewing, musical-instrument playing teachers... and there doesn't seem to be much that we can do about it.

Speaking to the Dead?
August 11, 2023 20:12 - 11 minutes - 15.2 MBHere's an interesting twist on the dream of uploading consciousness into an immortal, silicon-based brain: suppose we were to study your thought and speech patterns, and upload a relatively primitive SIMULATION of you -- how you speak, what you think, etc. That way, future generations could have a one-way conversation with "you," asking questions and receiving answers in your voice, in language and thoughts assembled from how you actually speak and feel. Is this, in fact, a form of Speaking t...
The Road to Hell...
August 10, 2023 05:41 - 17 minutes - 24.6 MB...is paved with good intentions. The issue in this case -- which was up in the air at the time of recording and now isn't (we lost) -- was a specific one: namely, should Republicans use a fifty-one percent majority vote in a state election to amend the state's constitution so that it required a SIXTY percent vote to amend it in the future? The larger issue is, of course, should you use the unscrupulous tactics of your enemy in order to block them from using those unscrupulous tactics in the...
The Horror of Having Children
August 08, 2023 17:33 - 18 minutes - 25.5 MBThe Washington Post brings us the Modern Liberal Nightmare Scenario: due to restricted access to abortion, a young couple IS FORCED TO HAVE CHILDREN -- even before they are forty and financially secure! The father had to join the military!!! Worse still, their love for their new child is keeping the couple together despite the fact that it would be more convenient for the mother to simply leave! This is the living Handmaiden's Tale hell of modern America. Join our elite squad of anti-elitist...
The True Story of the Atomic Bombs
August 06, 2023 05:59 - 16 minutes - 22.9 MBThe atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki ended the Second World War. Don't take my word for it: hear it from the lips of the one person capable of making that decision. Recorded in 2009.

DeSantis, Rebooted
August 04, 2023 05:39 - 14 minutes - 20 MBWith a less than awe-inspiring initial declaration of his candidacy for President, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has seemed uncharacteristically low-key as of late. But as Steve Green reports, this Republican governor is a man with a plan, and that plan has a decidedly beautiful ring to it.

So Long, Pee-Wee
August 03, 2023 04:00 - 15 minutes - 20.8 MBThis little man in the grey suit and red bowtie was more than just a comic act. As Bill points out in this loving tribute, Paul Reubens -- who died on July 30th after a six-year battle with cancer -- managed to create our culture's Puck, our Pan, our God of Mischief... and he will be sorely missed.

Transgender Activists Get Trolled, Seek Psychiatric Care
July 31, 2023 18:01 - 11 minutes - 16.2 MBA recent online survey asking students about their sexual preferences returned a few "problematic" results. Were they hateful? No. Threatening? Gosh, no. Irreverent and mocking? Yes! YES!! Irreverent and mocking!! They did not take it seriously! Get those 'researchers' to a trauma center, STAT!

Target: Satanism
July 30, 2023 19:19 - 28 minutes - 26 MBToday we present an unaired Virtue Signal episode that slipped through the cracks a few months ago, but one that shows the power of consequences unforeseen at the time of its recording. You may recall that your Friendly Neighborhood Target store not only had a gay and trans 'pride' display of select clothing on prominent display, but that some of these items were openly Satanist as well. Since then, Target has walked way back, Bud Light has fired its entire marketing department, more and more...
How Bath & Body Works Might Save U.S. Manufacturing 0 0
July 28, 2023 14:08 - 15 minutes - 21 MBBed, Bath & Body Works is not normally considered one of the titans of industry... but they may be on the cutting edge of a new way of making things; one that could go a long way to return manufacturing jobs to the United States. Think giant factories pouring out enormous vats, not of steel but rather lavender-scented, aloe-enriched, anti-frizz conditioner. Something like that.

Bleeding Blue
July 27, 2023 04:51 - 18 minutes - 24.9 MBWho could put a dollar value on a human life? Well, Steve Green could, of course, as he cracks out the statistics on the financial cost to the top five blue states as more and more people make a wild dash for the freedom and sanity of the red ones. And as Bill points out, there's more than just money at stake in this Migration from the Madness.

'No Good Deed Goes Unpunished'
July 23, 2023 17:50 - 26 minutes - 24.2 MBIt's a sign of our times that an expression once used as a vindication of Virtue -- 'No Good Deed Goes Unrewarded' -- has become a catchphrase for cynicism and regret. How does one protect themselves from being taken advantage of while still retaining a sense of generosity, optimism and kindness?

Snow White and the [sound of crickets]
July 21, 2023 04:21 - 16 minutes - 22.7 MBWell, the once magnificent Walt Disney company has done it again: turned an animated classic (actually, THE animated classic) into a live-action monstrosity with seven individuals who do not appear to be dwarves and a Latina actress playing Snow White, who was described as having 'Lips as red as roses... hair as black as ebon...AND TWO OUT OF THREE AIN'T BAD.'

Fraying THREADS
July 20, 2023 04:18 - 10 minutes - 14.9 MBTwo weeks after an apparently spectacular launch, Mark Zuckerberg's new social media platform seems to have stalled hard and is heading the same way as the Facebook CEO's 'Meta' project... meaning...uh... a 'toilet-wise' direction. Steve Green has the skinny.
Are You Serious?
July 16, 2023 07:12 - 17 minutes - 24.6 MBA Spanish government official rides a bike all the way to a climate change summit to show how serious a problem we face. The problem is, she allegedly flew a private jet (it was some kind of jet), took TWO limousines to the event, hopped out a few blacks away, then flanked front and back by carbon-spewing death machines, pedaled her way to infamy. If this climate crisis is as serious as people like this insist it is, then why don't they ever seem to take things seriously? Join our elite squa...
Scott Goes to the Movies
July 14, 2023 18:20 - 19 minutes - 27.5 MBRight Angle's critic-in-residence Scott Ott went to see both the mega Disney blockbuster INDIANA JONES AND THE DIAL OF DESTINY and the sleeper hit that is taking the country by storm: THE SOUND OF FREEDOM.

Biden is In / Biden is Out
July 13, 2023 03:18 - 13 minutes - 18.8 MBWhen it comes to the 2024 Presidential Election, Steve is only certain of two things: First, that Biden will be the Democratic Party Nominee, and second, that Biden will not be the Democratic Party Nominee.

Satanic Music
July 10, 2023 15:25 - 33 minutes - 30.5 MBIt's not uncommon for morally decent people to refer to overtly evil phenomena as 'Satanic,' and sometimes that can be a bit overblown. But Zo Rachel wants to know what else can you call music, media and politics that openly call for the worship of Satan himself -- and what can we do about it?

"Americans Love Abortion"

Two Modest Proposals for a Better America
July 07, 2023 05:17 - 17 minutes - 24.3 MBIn 1729 Jonathan Swift wrote 'A Modest Proposal,' which many consider to be the finest work of satire ever created. While never intended to be taken at face value, it nevertheless brought a contemporary issue into sharp moral focus. In this Independence Week episode, Bill has TWO Modest Proposals for making a better country. One of them, at least, deserves serious consideration. Friends, this is the week we celebrate our beloved country's Independence from totalitarianism, and today, more t...
Was the American Revolution Necessary?
July 06, 2023 14:05 - 13 minutes - 18.3 MBGreat Britain settled four major, english speaking colonies around the world: Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and the United States. The coins of the first three, to this day, continue to bear the likeness of Queen Elizabeth II (new issues will feature Charles III). Why was America different? If George III had not been so prideful, was there ever a chance that the USA would still be a member of the British Commonwealth? Friends, this is the week we celebrate our beloved country's Independen...
Capitalism
July 04, 2023 04:21 - 4 minutes - 6.08 MBWhen Thomas Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Independence he made quite a splash when he defined our unalienable rights as "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness;" prior to that day in 1776, the phrase in common usage was 'life, liberty and PROPERTY.' In this episode of We The People V2.0, Bill shows how Capitalism is nothing more nor less than simple economic freedom. Happy Independence Day, everybody!

What About the 'Cis Lesbians?'
July 01, 2023 02:28 - 12 minutes - 17.5 MBThe essential component to the Marxist strategy known as Critical Theory is the idea that while all manufactured grievance groups must attack the conservative middle, they must NEVER attack EACH OTHER. But now the Civil War between the LGB vs. TQ+ deepens significantly. Turns out that gay people don't like being designated as 'cis' either. The difference between pushback from that community and the straight one is that they have high victimhood status. This is why the Progressive 'philosophy'...

Horrible People
June 29, 2023 18:19 - 16 minutes - 22.4 MBThere is an old church building in Manhattan. The congregation can no longer afford its upkeep, so they agreed to sell it for $30 million, which they planned to use for feeding the homeless and other worthy charitable aims. But actor Mark Ruffalo, 'comedian' Amy Schumer, and other rich and powerful celebrities, ONCE REHEARSED THERE and so have blocked the sale of the property in court. These multimillionaires could have simply BOUGHT the property of course -- problem solved! -- but instead we...
Abdication
June 27, 2023 03:39 - 23 minutes - 21.4 MBThe setbacks continue. Things don't get any easier. And the only way to defeat the river of entropy is to swim upstream as hard as you can for as long as you can. That's the deal. That's Life on Earth. And to walk away from that reality is a form of ABDICATION. Join our elite squad of anti-elitists by becoming a Citizen Producer today: https://billwhittle.com/register/
Say Goodbye to the Crappy Little Ships
June 26, 2023 19:04 - 15 minutes - 21.5 MBIn the early 2000's the Littoral Combat Ship looked like the future for the US Navy: small, relatively inexpensive, and designed for 'brown-water' operations close to shore. But it soon became ever more apparent that the LCS was not able to survive in the modern naval environment, and so in the face of a growing Chinese navy the USN has decided to retire some three dozen of what many of their crews referred to as the Little Crappy Ships. Their replacement, while little, does not seem to be v...

A Forlorn Hope
June 22, 2023 06:43 - 18 minutes - 25.2 MBWe recorded this on Tuesday morning, and by the time you see this even the remotest chance of rescue will have passed, and the five people aboard the Titan lost. Scott asks a critical question, namely: what can or should be expected of us when it comes to rescuing five strangers who knew full well that this was a very dangerous dive?

An Inconvenient Truth: 24-1
June 20, 2023 04:58 - 15 minutes - 21.5 MBThe US Women's Soccer Team actually sued over the pay gap between themselves and the US male team; this case was thrown out of court for the obvious reason that the men brought in vastly more revenue. Despite this setback, they brought enough political pressure to ensure that the women ended up receiving the same paychecks as the men. It's possible this lead them to believe they were as good as the men, because the US Women's team entered a smallish tournament against male players and the res...
Meet the Beatles... Again
June 19, 2023 20:31 - 17 minutes - 24.1 MBWe've done a number of shows about the danger of AI -- mostly 'hard,' or self-aware AI. However, like fire, Artificial Intelligence, makes a terrible master but a useful servant. Case in point: a recently-discovered, barely-audible song that John Lennon recorded directly into a hand-held cassette player before his death in 1980 has been processed by an artificial intelligence algorithm that was 'trained' to replicate Lennon's voice, turning a barely-audible mess into a studio-quality track. N...
Life, Death and Arnold
June 16, 2023 17:48 - 29 minutes - 26.6 MBWhat, do you suppose, is the one thing that the seemingly fearless, unemotional killing machine known as The Terminator is secretly terrified of? The Terminator is terrified of being terminated. Former California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger has called anyone who believes in an afterlife a LIAR, and has confessed to his own mortal fear of his own mortality.

Boeing... Boeing... Gone!
June 13, 2023 15:46 - 17 minutes - 24.7 MBAmerican aerospace giant Boeing introduced their successor to the Apollo capsule -- the Starliner -- back in 2010. The first manned test flight of the Starliner was scheduled for 2017. But in early June, 2023 --thirteen years after its introduction -- the first manned test flight has no been delayed..."indefinitely," according to company officials. Was it a fault with some untested, bleeding-edge, all-digital flight control system? Actually, no: the ELECTRICAL TAPE they used turned out to be ...

June 10, 2023 04:00 - 31 minutes - 28.8 MBWhat do the Canadian wildfires and the second Trump indictment have in common?

You Must Have Three Children!
June 08, 2023 22:47 - 17 minutes - 24.2 MBIn 1980 the Chinese Communist Party announced their draconian One Child mandate. In 2016, they made that a Two Child mandate and now Uncle Xi wants Chinese women to have at least three children.
