  • EP 59: The Assassination Attempt On Former President Donald Trump Part: 2
    Sep 29 2024

    This is episode 59 of The Truth Tank.


    This episode is the continuation of part 1. Alex Jones was right again. Are the Democrats responsible for attempt? Did the constant negative political and personal rhetoric around Trump lead to the unthinkable? Known as Trump Derangement Syndrome, after the assassination attempt Trump could do no wrong and looked like a safe bet to be president again. A few months on and it’s a different story, Biden ‘’resigned’’ and Kamala gets nominated and the race to the White House heats up.

    We will also look at the flaws and gaps in the security response during the Butler Rally. Was the shooter just a crazed lone wolf acting alone? or was he a patsy for the deep state or a shadowy organisation? What if the worse case scenario happened? Was the assassination attempt part of a bigger and more sinister plot?

    The pitfalls of sloped roofs and the flood of excuses by the Secret Service. Another major problem with the events of July 13th, the days and weeks after was the media and misinformation regarding; what was fact? What was fiction?

    Who will win in November? Is another civil war possible? Or will logic prevail?

  • EP 58: The Assassination Attempt On Former President Donald Trump Part: 1
    Sep 19 2024
    This is episode 58 of The Truth Tank. On this episode, We will be having a detailed look at the events of July 13th. A day that will be remembered throughout history as, the day former president Donald Trump was nearly assassinated while addressing his supporters at his Trump rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. We will begin with an overview of the events of July 13, How did no-one see the shooter setting up? Why wasn’t he questioned/stopped by the police or Secret Service? How did he get as close as he did? And the lack of security procedures, personal, checkpoints and the catastrophic breakdowns in communications all contributed to what unfolded. Who was the shooter? What was his background? He didn’t look like the most robust character or an obvious choice for an assassin. What do we know about him? What is the truth about the shooter? What are just conspiracy theories and rumours? Was it an inside job? When did the Secret Service snipers know about the threat and Why did it take so long to react and take out the shooter, despite the numerous reports from the public that a suspicious person had been spotted on a roof? We will be taking a deep dive into the details of this event, breaking down the timeline of events leading up to the attempt, and looking at the parallels between Lee Harvey Oswald and JFKs Assassination. We will also look at the culture and historical impact of the assassination attempt has had; With the now iconic image of the fist pump and a defiant, resilient Trump. Who appeared to be even stronger heading into Novembers’ Presidential Election. The controversy around comments made by Tenacious D. The reactions from both sides of the political fence, the brief amnesty between Democrats and Republicans. Then back to the old familiar battlegrounds of political life, the campaign to derail Trump, Kamala and The Olympics and hush money payments.

We will then look at what could be a contemporary conspiracy playing out at the moment, and that is the deaths of former Boeing employees.


    The deaths of former employees comes as Boeing is on trail over alleged serious and numerous safety violations and complaints from former employees. Is there a link between the untimely death’s of two whistleblowers how passed away while testifying over alleged safety violations by the airline. Are the deaths a coincidence? Is there something far more sinister at play?

  • Ep: 55: The Academy Awards 2024, Reviewing, Ranting, Raving & Illuminati Earrings?
    May 24 2024
    This is episode 55 of The Truth Tank. On this episode, We will be having a look at all the Highs and Lows, Winners and Losers and everything in-between that was the 2024 Academy Awards. It was an interesting night filled with a few surprises and cringe worthy political jokes by returning host Jimmy Kimmel. Once again running time was an issue, as well as all the over the top BS that makes up a large part of the Awards and Illuminati Earrings? Did the Oscars just go Un-Woke? Did the best film actually win for once? Who got snubbed? and Are the Academy awards still relevant in this unpredictable and chaotic world? Before all the fun of the Oscars, We will be looking at a contemporary conspiracy that has been making the rounds on the news and social media and that is Where in the world is Kate Middleton? Rumours were abundant about her whereabouts, which was made worse and into this huge event spurred on by Tic-Tockers and celebrities alike. Episode Promos: The Brian Storming Project The D.E.A.D.

  • EP: 53: Godzilla: Minus One Review, Themes, Metaphors, Disaster Response & The $15 Million Budget
    Mar 13 2024

    This is episode 53 of The Truth Tank.

    On this episode, We will be looking at the greatest movie monster of all time, starring in 38 films spanning 70 years, the one and only Godzilla.. We will take a look at the latest instalment of the franchise Toho Studios Godzilla: Minus One. Diving into the themes, metaphors the film explores and social issues playing out in the backdrop of post war in Japan; the trust in the government, societal upheaval, PTSD, people helping people, destructive nationalism, communities banding together during in times of crisis and disaster response. These issues covered in the film are as relevant today as they were back then.

    Godzilla: Minus One has received rave reviews around the world due to its human story and VFX budget of less than 15 million dollars. Hollywood budgets have become overinflated in the past few decades. The last batch of superhero and sequel films have bearly made their budget back which asks the questions… What are the big studios doing with all this money? How can a relatively small Japanese studio produce one of the most visually spectacular films of the year for less than the standard independent film? Are big studios cooking the books and inflating budgets for financial gain? or Have smaller studios just figured out how to make big films on a shoestring budget?
