Wuthering Waves EP 1.3 | An Unfinished Song Enjoy Now: It all begins with a simple melody, a gift from someone special long ago. As she masters one piece after another, her heart yearns to create her own. Lyrics may elude her, much like the intricate emotions woven into human hearts. Yet, every time she plays, it's the memory of someone she holds dear that dances through her mind, a bittersweet reminder of love's lingering presence. Production: Wuthering Waves Composer: Adam Gubman Arranger: Adam Gubman Lyrics: Adam Gubman/Piper Gubman Vocals: Moana Avvenenti String: Leah Zeger Wind: Kristin Naigus Mixing/Mastering: Adam Gubman Music Supervisor: Grass/Steven Tang

GM! Thanks for sticking with me through these long posts as we dive into the complexities of Kaidro. Today, let's talk about the development of our animation series. We haven't discussed this much because it's quite detailed. Where are we with the animation series development? It's a complex answer because our IP spans multiple mediums. Here's a simplified breakdown: - Learning from Anime: Like popular series such as "Fullmetal Alchemist," "Naruto," and "One Piece," where manga serves as the storyboard for anime, we've taken a similar approach but with a twist. - Starting with the end in mind: We began by creating 3-D assets in Unreal Engine 5 for our Webtoons and print manga. This choice allows us to use the same high-quality assets for cinematic TV, movies, and games, reducing costs and enhancing consistency. - Asset Reuse: By developing assets once for high-quality output, we can use them across comics, games, and animations. This method, similar to what was done in "Arcane," involves hand-painting over 3-D models for a unique look. - Cost and Efficiency: This approach isn't common due to its difficulty and the need for story consistency. However, it allows for smarter production, echoing the methods of visionaries like Disney and Hanna-Barbera, ensuring we can sustain and grow our IP like Pokémon. Current Status: - Pre-production: We're well into preproduction, with story development, storyboards, color scripts, and asset creation nearly complete. This groundwork usually takes years but we're ahead. This is because what I listed above are the mangas. Each manga counts as two episodes. And because each of those are fully developed, we have all the information we need to develop an episode. - Production Timeline: We're set to move into full production in 2025. Post our animation lock-up system with the community we am to go into full production after that in January. - Quality and Speed: An example of our efficiency is the cinematic for December 18th, where we reused game assets for backgrounds, finishing 43 scenes in just a month, which is exceptionally fast. Why This Matters: - For Investors and Community: This strategy not only reduces costs but also extends the life and reach of Kaidro, ensuring long-term success. We're significantly further in our animation development than most Web3 projects, maintaining high quality while pushing boundaries. Our hyper focus is on the production pipeline to allow for the anime to come to life. LFG $KDR

Solon Lee (Producer at Kuro Games): Thank You for Playing My Game "Wuthering Waves: Exploring Game Creation Under Unreal Engine." Interview by Nvliu66 When you think of Unreal Engine, what comes to mind? A few days ago, at the Epic Games Shanghai office, I met the producers of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 and Wuthering Waves. Both games are developed based on Unreal Engine, and they shared the stories behind their game creation. My biggest takeaway was that while a great game stems from a producer's emotional expression, its realization relies on the "escort" of technology. Let's return to the interview scene and listen once more to their unique insights on game development. Wuthering Waves and Unreal Engine Bill Clifford (VP and GM of Unreal Engine at Epic Games): With Wuthering Waves, they used many complex artistic techniques to present this anime style, and it's truly outstanding. They are among the first companies to create a role-playing game in an open world that is also cross-platform, which is another incredible feat. They introduced console-level graphics and combat systems while maintaining a consistent update frequency. Furthermore, as they adopt and integrate new Unreal Engine technologies into the game, the experience is continuously enhanced. It’s a truly inspiring success story. Solon Lee (Producer at Kuro Games): We have grown alongside the updates of the UE engine, including the release of UE5. Throughout the process, we’ve been able to learn from UE’s updates. When UE5 was released, it introduced many new technical features, especially ray tracing. Everyone currently praises the ray tracing effects in Wuthering Waves, which is actually due to the continuous updates of the engine. We found those highlights and ported them over to UE4.26. During this process, our engineers were learning the logic of the engine, following its updates, and developing an engineering mindset and a way of creating visual effects. So, my biggest personal takeaway is that choosing a top-tier engine doesn’t just make the game better; it makes us better in the process. "Punishing: Gray Raven" was developed on the Unity platform, while "Wuthering Waves" is based on Unreal. What was the reasoning behind this change at the time? Solon Lee: Psychologically, we don’t have a heavy dependence. We don't feel that just because we've used Unity, we must continue using it. We are a bit more pragmatic. When we were about to start Wuthering Waves, we clearly knew we wanted to make an open world. UE obviously offers more support for open worlds. We felt that "standing on the shoulders of giants" to make a game was definitely a more practical decision. At that time, we could also sense that most engineers in the industry had an aspiration toward UE. "Wuthering Waves" has been live for a year and a half. At this stage, could you use a short summary or a few words to introduce "Wuthering Waves" to the players? Solon Lee: Wuthering Waves is a game that strives to continuously create resonance with players. From the excitement and design of the action to the scriptwriting and performances, we strive to find "highlight segments" or moments in every version that can trigger internal resonance, touch the heart, or make players "scream" with excitement. This is actually a creative consensus our team has slowly formed over the past year. When we find that moment in a version and we ourselves "scream" for it, we feel that there is a high probability that when the version is released, it will be recognized by the users. Because the most important thing about a game is that it must be fun, as developers, we often think about what kind of game qualifies as "fun." What is a "Fun" Game? Solon Lee: One point I can think of right now is that the rules should be as simple as possible. As soon as you start, after two slashes or casting a skill, you should feel, "Wow, that was so cool! I want to do it again! Wow, so cool!" Specifically for action games, the "fun" is often hidden in very small granularities. For example, if you compare two different games where you are just running and jumping, the running in some games feels fun. Why? It might just be because the "grip" is better, the animation swing feels better, or it gives you a sense of gravity or momentum. Whether a point in a game is fun can be subjective. For me, there are a few games that have had a significant influence on my work. One is definitely NieR; when we were making Punishing: Gray Raven in the early days, we were very inspired by NieR. When Devil May Cry 5 came out, it gave us a lot of new inspiration for our combat system. Death Stranding is indeed one of my personal favorite games from recent years. When Elden Ring was released, it also gave us a very strong impression and touched us deeply. The project for Wuthering Waves started in the first half of 2020. At that time, there were very few open-world action games on the market because most action games back then were stage-based (linear/hub-based). All excellent action games required very tight level design. Later, Elden Ring came out, and experiencing it gave us strong resonance. We felt that action games definitely have potential in an open world, and we believe it should be that way. A Message to the Players Solon Lee: I am truly grateful that so many players like Wuthering Waves. It is because of everyone’s love whether it's encouragement or criticism that we are given a lot of motivation to maintain our continuous passion to make our game better. I believe the only way we can give back to the players who like Kuro and Wuthering Waves is by producing better and better versions and content, and making more and more great games. Happy New Year, and thank you for playing my game. translated by Xu #WutheringWaves #WuWa

250426 LEJE IG Update LEJE does not simply look back on the past. We reinterpret time-honored craftsmanship through contemporary sensibility and technology— offering a vision for the future. Seoul is both the stage and the source of this journey. A city where tradition and modernity collide in harmony, constantly redefining itself. And no one expresses its layered spirit more elegantly than Jennie. The ME-IN line distills LEJE’s philosophy. Built on a 3D-printed base, and finished with mother-of-pearl inlay and natural lacquer, each piece is brought to life through 300+ hours of collaboration with a 50-year master artisan. The beauty of the past is rearticulated in today’s language. Structured ‘CONE’ pants, inspired by daenggi hair ribbons, add playful tension to the silhouette. LEJE’s customized biker shoes portray a modern icon— where heritage meets rebellion, femininity meets strength. In the Seoul City music video, Jennie embodies this vision— tender, bold, and captivating—yet always in control. She becomes a gaze that captures the city’s past, present, and future. A woman of LEJE: self-possessed, assured, and fluid in identity. Seoul City—and Jennie, moving through its rhythm— may those moments always shine.

Michael Jackson sought permission from the Brazilian government to film the "They Don't Care About Us" music video in Rio de Janeiro's Santa Marta favela and Salvador's Pelourinho district in 1996. The government denied the request, fearing the video would highlight poverty and harm Brazil's image, especially as Rio was bidding to host the 2004 Olympics. Despite the ban, Jackson and director Spike Lee proceeded with filming. Local drug lord Marcinho VP, a fan of Jackson, reportedly provided security for the production in the favela, ensuring safe passage without payment. This protection allowed filming to continue despite the lack of official support, and the video was completed, showcasing the favela's conditions and featuring the Afro-Brazilian group Olodum. They Don't Really Care About Us is a powerful and assertive song by Michael Jackson, released in 1995 on his HIStory: Past Present and Future, Book album. The track stands out for its direct and potent lyrics, which voice strong feelings of frustration and anger against societal structures that seem unresponsive or indifferent. It expresses a deep sense of being unheard and undervalued, with Jackson's vocals conveying raw emotion and defiance. The song's impactful message, combined with its memorable beat, makes it a significant piece in his discography, resonating with anyone who has felt marginalized or overlooked. ~ Shonexyujii ✨🙌🏽💫

“What’s the Point?” A series 2.5 decades in the making: I’ve had the same best friend for almost 25 years. His name is MITMOE. When we were 8 years old we would run around our backyards making films. We made Saving Private Ryan before ever actually seeing the movie. We enlisted our neighbor and friend, Sage, a Native American, and made backyard Cowboys vs Indians films. After which we would pirate hip-hop on Limewire and play GTA until our moms called the landline telling us to come home. He and I have made a fair bit of music together over the years, about an albums worth. But, despite our individual successes, we’ve never worked together professionally. He’s filmed for everyone from Tiger Woods to Citizen, Formula One to Jelly Roll, shaken hands with Bill Clinton and 2/3rds of the Trump sons. With over 250,000,000 music video views, his production quality is unrivaled and his ability to tell a story on the silver screen is masterful. “What’s the Point” is a series I’ve been wanting to make for over a year now but simply haven’t had the capacity to do it myself. Hopefully this docuseries emerges as a way for us all to explore how humans create value, meaning, and shared narratives in the digital age. We’ll examine the intersection of technology, culture, and collective behavior, asking fundamental questions about why we build what we build and believe what we believe. We’ll be starting with a deep dive on what happened to NFTs on Solana, bridge into the narrative nitty gritties of Jupiter, and end nowhere. I couldn’t be more happy to delve into this with my best friend.

Wuthering Waves, and what's next... A visit to Kuro Games headquarters an exclusive interview with CEO Solon by YTN Team Full Video: Q: Looking back, what first motivated the team to take on such an ambitious project? A: From the very beginning, we realized something important: when a goal feels difficult but the result is exciting, people’s eyes light up. That moment tells us the challenge is worth pursuing. We genuinely enjoy tackling hard problems, because we believe meaningful achievements only come from doing things that are difficult but right. Q: Your early projects gained attention very quickly. How did that affect the team? A: When our first product launched, the response exceeded expectations. At the time, it almost made us believe we already had everything figured out. But that confidence was quickly tested. We lacked experience in long-term content planning, sustainable version updates, and large-scale operations. Many issues only became apparent after launch, forcing us to learn by solving problems in real time. Q: How did those early lessons shape Punishing: Gray Raven? A: In hindsight, many early versions of our games didn’t fully reach their potential. Those shortcomings became invaluable lessons. When developing Punishing: Gray Raven, we consciously avoided repeating those mistakes. We studied player ecosystems, observed how other successful titles operated, and anticipated feedback before it arrived. That preparation laid the groundwork for a project that has now sustained itself for nearly six years. Q: When did the concept for Wuthering Waves take shape? A: With Wuthering Waves, our goal was very clear from the start: to create something players had never experienced before. We drew inspiration from works like Death Stranding, Annihilation, and outstanding domestic animation. Themes such as resonance, abstract spaces, supernatural phenomena, and strong audiovisual expression naturally pointed us toward an open-world action game. Q: Sound and “resonance” play a major role in the worldbuilding. Why was that important? A: We wanted sound to be more than atmosphere, it needed to be a narrative force. The idea of a world-altering resonance, a low-frequency “lament” capable of reshaping reality, became the foundation of the setting. From there, the world, its conflicts, and its powers gradually took form. Kuro aims to create concepts players have never experienced before. Inspirations include: - Supernatural themes. - Strong mechanical and emotional imagery. - Music as a storytelling medium. Q: How do you ensure cohesion between story, gameplay, and world design? A: Alignment is critical. Story, environment, and gameplay must reinforce each other. That requires long-term planning, especially when multiple versions are developed in parallel. Early coordination allows level design, systems, and IP development to inspire one another, which improves both efficiency and creative momentum. The goal is to avoid disconnected content between versions and maintain narrative and gameplay cohesion. Q: What does Version 3.0 represent for Wuthering Waves? A: Version 3.0 is a major milestone. It introduces an entirely new region, new characters, upgraded combat systems, and a significantly improved open-world traversal experience. Every version aims to deliver the best experience possible while continuing to surprise players. Q: How does the team handle player feedback? A: We monitor feedback through community data, sentiment analysis, and post-version reviews. Both positive and negative responses are carefully analyzed and reflected in future updates. Continuous iteration is essential to long-term success. Q: Early story reception was mixed. How did the team respond? A: We recognized that narrative presentation needed improvement. By optimizing production pipelines and increasing investment, later versions achieved much stronger storytelling clarity and delivery. Players can now more clearly feel the depth, direction, and long-term potential of the world. Q: Kuro Games is known for polish. How central is that philosophy? A: We believe every visible part of the game must meet high internal standards, like - Visual effects - Skills - Environmental details -Music and audio design or promotional content must meet a high standard. We want players to feel the identity and power of Wuthering Waves both inside and outside the game. We know that early story reception was weaker, but significant effort has been invested in: - Clearer storytelling - Stronger presentation - More emotionally impactful performances and scenes. Q: How do community events factor into long-term development? A: Long-term IP growth depends on emotional connection. Community events, both online and offline, help us understand player expectations while strengthening that bond. It’s a two-way relationship. Q: Looking ahead, what is Kuro Games’ long-term vision? A: Our goal is to become a globally influential action-game developer. Upcoming projects (e.g., Nami, still in development) are focused on: - Delivering unique action combat experiences. - Creating something clearly distinct within the action game genre. The story of Wuthering Waves is planned years in advance, with major narrative arcs already outlined. Q: Finally, how would you describe Kuro Games’ current phase? A: From Zhuhai to Guangzhou, we’re in a strong upward phase. Our growth is driven by a commitment to meaningful, high-quality experiences. Staying true to that original intent is what will continue to guide us forward. #WutheringWaves #punishinggrayraven

One of the things that makes the ending of Heat so powerful is its music—Moby's "God Moving Over the Face of the Waters." At the time, Moby was relatively unknown, yet Michael Mann somehow discovered the obscure track and decided it was perfect for the final scene. Moby explains: “Let’s get in our little time machine and go back to 1994. I was part of the rave scene, and I was making my first album, Everything Is Wrong. One of the songs—in fact, the last song on the album—that I was desperate to include was "God Moving Over the Face of the Waters." It could arguably be the strangest song ever included on what was supposed to be a dance album. There are no drums and nothing overtly electronic about it. When I was working on it and mixing it, I fell in love with it almost more than anything I’d ever done. So I put it on the album, and it sat there at the end, largely ignored. But somehow, and I still don’t know how, Michael Mann heard it and wanted to use it in this movie he was working on called Heat, with Al Pacino, Robert De Niro, Val Kilmer, on and on and on. This real movie. I was baffled. How does Michael Mann know who I am? How does Michael Mann know about this piece of music? But I said yes, of course. It was such an amazing opportunity. This major Hollywood director knew who I was and wanted to use my music. They flew me to Los Angeles and put me in a professional studio to tailor “God Moving” to the closing scene of the film. Until then, I had only ever worked in my homemade studio in an abandoned loft building in New York… One of the most terrifying professional moments of my life came when someone told me, “Michael Mann wants to talk to you.” And I was like, “Can’t he just leave me alone? I’m terrified. I don’t want to talk to humans.” I thought, “Okay, Michael Mann is going to call me, and it’s going to be scary, but I can deal with it because I’m a big boy.” The phone rang, I picked it up, and Michael Mann talked for about 45 minutes. He talked about archetypes within the film, classical narrative elements and tropes. It was like he gave me this masterclass in what Heat was about, and then just hung up the phone. And then it came out, and to hear the music that I’d made against this phenomenal, beautiful scene—it really was special. I’m thrilled that, 30 years later, people are still discovering the film and “God Moving Over the Face of the Waters.” Spoiler warning: The clip below contains the ending of Heat. If you haven't seen the film, don't watch past the first 30 seconds. The music doesn't begin until about a minute into the scene.

NEW DOCUMENTARY: "The Censorship Files" How much would you pay to protect your freedom? by Leighton 明 Woodhouse & Michael Shellenberger One year ago, we and other journalists gained access to the Twitter Files. What we discovered shocked us. Not only were highly partisan and ideological individuals within Twitter censoring people for holding views with which they disagreed, they were often doing so on behalf of US government officials and contractors with the FBI, CIA, and Department of Homeland Security. And so, one year later, we are happy to announce a new, full-length documentary film, “The Censorship Files.” You can see the trailer above. The film, made by Leighton Woodhouse and Jonah Markowitz, will bring you inside the Twitter Files and the race to the Supreme Court, which will hear the Missouri v. Biden censorship case early next year. Today we must ask you a personal question: what price would you put on your freedom? Many of us tell ourselves that freedom is priceless: we would sacrifice everything, die even, to protect our freedoms and keep America a free nation. Even if we weren’t willing to die or go to prison for our nation, we would make a significant financial investment to protect it. We are asking you to make a far more modest payment: less than $9/month, or about half the cost of a Netflix subscription. A subscription to Public is an investment in our investigative reporting, our free speech campaigning, and the final production and distribution of “The Censorship Files,” a film that will change how Americans think about free speech. We believe $9/month is a tiny investment to pay to ensure that, in the future, you can read what you want to read, watch the programs you want to watch, and voice your opinions. “The Censorship Files” will be a landmark film in educating younger Americans, who are more censorial than their elders, about America’s remarkable history of strong free speech protections. They will learn about the Civil Rights movement, the right of the New York Times to publish “the Pentagon Papers,” and the right even of pro-Nazi and pro-terrorism activists to march freely through America’s streets. “The Censorship Files” will reveal the origins and scope of the Censorship Industrial Complex, its leaders and architects, and its victims of censorship, from moms sharing stories about the Covid vaccine’s side effects on their children to two of the world’s foremost experts on the Covid response, Harvard’s Martin Kulldorff and Stanford’s Jay Bhattacharya. Finally, we will use “The Censorship Files” to build a new free speech movement in America, city by city, campus by campus, from the grassroots up. Because if we can’t persuade America’s youth to support free speech, then the First Amendment is just some words on a piece of paper. We can’t save the First Amendment without you. We can’t even finish “The Censorship Files” without you. This is not complicated. We need more paid subscribers. We need more than 10% of our subscribers to contribute thirty cents daily. If we could get 30% of our free subscribers to support our movement, I believe that we would have a fighting chance to save our first freedom and the other pillars of democratic civilization along with it. One year ago, we didn’t even know we lived in a heavily censored society. Today, we have ripped back the veil of the Censorship Industrial Complex and are on the cusp of defunding and dismantling it. Such a process will take years but won’t take a decade. It may even happen much more quickly than that, depending on the actions of the Supreme Court and Congress. What’s certain is that we can’t do it without our paid subscribers — and we don’t want to do it without our unpaid ones. We promise that, in the future, you’ll be grateful you funded the fight for our first freedom.

Stargate trivia: "200" (The BIG breakdown) SG-1 was about to attain the loftiest of broadcast heights – its 200th episode – and we wanted to do something special. Something unique. Something everyone on the production would enjoy as much as the longtime fans watching at home. The initial idea pitched was something called “Remember When…”, a trip down memory lane in which our characters’ reflections would form the frames of the varied flashbacks to outrageous missions. While everyone loved the idea of the outrageous missions, the premise of the episode felt too diffuse. We wanted an actual story that would form the heart of the episode. After much discussion, we elected to pay tribute to the franchise by referencing our last milestone – episode 100 – and bringing back Martin Lloyd and the show within a show, Wormhole X-Treme. But the fun we poked at the franchise through that spoof production was nothing compared to what we had in store for 200… WE FINALLY GOT TO MEET THE FURLINGS! Sort of. Even though it never really happened and we end up getting them killed in the end. Back in the show’s fourth season, not long after joining the production, I was summoned to Exec. Producer Robert Cooper’s office. He was doing his pass on our first script, Scorched Earth, and needed something from me: the name of an alien race. When pressed, he admitted naming alien races was not his forte and, as evidence, offered up “the Furlings”. I have to admit that whenever I heard the name, I always imagined a cosmic version of the Care Bears, giggling and snuggling their way through various adventures. As evidently, did everyone else on the production. The fans, however, were all sorts of curious and nary a week would go by without a fan posting a message board request for a glimpse of the elusive beings. Time wore on and those requests continued so, at one point, Brad suggested an episode in which we actually did get to meet them: a race of gaunt, towering, hairless, grey-skinned creatures. But that idea was quashed and the production went on its merry way, choosing to keep the race a mystery. But with 200 came the opportunity to honor those fan requests, and the viewers at home finally got to see those lovable furry creatures who turned out to be a cross between an ewok and a deranged koala. And then SG-1 went and got their planet blown up. Of course, we quickly reveal that the incident never actually happened and it was part of a pitch for a revival of the defunct Wormhole X-Treme t.v. series, a show that lasted an inglorious three episodes before being cancelled. But thanks to an impressive second life on dvd (following in the footsteps of Family Guy and Futurama) the show is being revived – and General O’Neill, in a desire to maintain a cover of plausible deniability for the Stargate program (and, let’s face it, screw with his old teammates) charges SG-1 with the task of creatively contributing to the production. MITCHELL TAKES ON THE LIVING DEAD! Every once in a while, actor Ben Browder would drop by the offices to pitch out an action sequence for his character – so I thought it appropriate that, given the opportunity, his character would pitch out an action sequence for – uh – his character. And, really, nothing says action like zombie hordes. Just ask fans of The Walking Dead. This sequence also allowed us the rare opportunity of witnessing Walter/Norman getting his head eaten. Double bonus! Mitchell’s idea is shot down and Martin gets on the phone with a representative of the studio. He is clearly frustrated and Mitchell asks: “Studio executives, huh?” Martin responds: “What? Oh, no Charlie? He’s a great guy. He’s the only one I trust.” This was a reference to longtime MGM President of Television and Stargate supporter Charles Cohen, one of the smartest, kindest studios executives I’ve ever had the pleasure to work with. As much as he was a fan of the show, we at the production were fans of Charlie. Martin is outraged because they lost their lead. How, he wonders, can they do the show without their lead. “You just bring in a character to replace him,”suggests Mitchell – an obvious reference to the introduction of Cam Mitchell which followed soon after the departure of longtime SG-1 lead Jack O’Neill. Carter then throws out some alternate ideas for keeping the lead alive: “Well, you could have the other characters refer to him all the time. Maybe, get him on the phone once in a while.” Yep. Been there; done that during SG-1’s seventh and eighth seasons. And then, someone references that time O’Neill was invisible… THE ADVENTURES OF INVISIBLE O'NEILL! The idea of doing an Invisible O’Neill segment was actually a joke I threw out...That ended up making the script. That happened a lot in this episode. As with all the segments, we went off and wrote them individually, and then everyone weighed in and they were tweaked. I always found the scene of O’Neill spying on Carter in the shower a tad creepy. Anyway, the Invisible O’Neill idea was embraced because we wanted Richard Dean Anderson to come back and do a cameo on this all-important episode, but didn’t know if he’d be able to work in an appearance. So, we figured we’d get the next best thing: his voice. As it turned out, he was able to swing the appearance, making 200 all that more special. THE GETAWAY Martin then pitches out a tale of high adventure, placing our heroes (SG-1) in an impossible position – and then simply cutting to them escaping through the gate. This was a tip of the hat to the many fans outraged by a similar scenario in a past episode (don’t remember the name) in which our heroes (SG-1) are surrounded by Lucian Alliance soldiers only to effect some miraculous unseen escape. During the ensuing argument over the merits of the pitch, Martin attempts to come up with a reasonable window of time for the team to reach the gate and dial. Ten seconds is too short and thirty seconds is too round a number. He decides on 38! Which, coincidentally, is the same number (of minutes) a stargate can stay open. Timing is, of course, everything, and nothing says action like a ticking clock. Which prompts the following gem from Martin: “Trust me, jeopardy plus ticking clock is box office. It’s the E equals M C squared of the entertainment world. Ask any executive.” Indeed. If there were two notes we received more than any other during Stargate’s long run, they were: “More jeopardy!” and “We need a ticking clock!”. Having a character race a timer to defuse a bomb? Didn’t get much better than that. THEY'RE OFF TO SEE THE WIZARD! Next to The Simpsons, The Wizard of Oz was probably the most referenced piece of pop culture over SG-1’s decade-long run. The fans certainly took notice and resulted in one particularly memorable piece of artwork being sent to studio depicting the original team as the cinematic classic’s adventurous foursome. So, I suppose, it made perfect sense to reference the constant references by including a little Wizard of Oz sequence in the episode as well. Mitchell’s line: “Now, how can something work perfectly fine for ten years, then all of a sudden, it doesn’t work anymore?” was an in-story reference to the gate suddenly stopping operations – and, in hindsight, could have been interpreted as a comment on the the show’s cancellation. DESTROYING STARGATE COMMAND This also episode gave us the opportunity to do something we’ve always wanted to do: blow up Stargate Command. It’s part of the story Martin Lloyd pitches the team. Mitchell, however, points out a potential problem. They’re alive in the next scene. How is that possible. To which Martin replies: ” I’m thinking I can back-sell it and say you were beamed out at the last second.” Teal’c’s rejoinder neatly sums up the feelings of many on the production: “Is that not too convenient?”. Yep, nobody hated the Earth ship beaming technology more than I did – with possible exception of actor Ben Browder. In the original version of this scene, the fun we poked at ourselves was a little more pointed: DANIEL: Beamed out. MARTIN: By the Prometheus. TEAL'C: Convenient. MARTIN: True. But c'mon, you got Asgard technology, why not use it? As long as it doesn't become a crutch. DANIEL: Small problem. The Prometheus was destroyed. MARTIN: Really? By who? MITCHELL: Kind of a long story. MARTIN: In battle? MITCHELL: Yes. MARTIN: Wow. So how'd you get out of that one? Beat. DANIEL: We, uh... we were beamed out. Soon after, Martin fields yet another call, this one from the network. "So, trouble with Nora"assumes Mitchell, to which Martin replies: "No, Nora—she's great." A shout-out to the late Nora O'Brien who was our network point-person for many years before she moved on to another position with NBC. A sharp executive and just a lovely woman. SG-1 DOES STAR TREK We all grew up with the original Star Trek (except Rob Cooper who preferred The Six Million Dollar Man) so we (and by we I mean Brad) couldn’t resist the opportunity to do an SG-1 version of the television’s most famous SF series. Paul McGillion was originally supposed to do the one-line cameo of the ship’s beleaguered Scottish engineer, but when that fell through, series co-creator and Executive Producer (not to mention former stage actor) Brad Wright stepped into those shiny black boots. THE YOUNGER, EDGIER TEAM Look closely and you can catch the late Cory Monteith as one of the young and edgy team-members. “Young” and “edgy” were buzzwords we kept on hearing a lot of (and continue to hear a lot of in the business), so Rob Cooper served up his version of what a younger, edgier Stargate would look like complete with stylized shots and dreamy cast members. Vala continues to pitch out ideas, offering up an SF version of Gilligan’s Island (“We were in a cloaked cargo ship on a simple, three-hour reconnaissance mission…”) that was one of the scenes we lost for time at the script stage… VALA (VO): We were in a cloaked cargo ship, on a simple three hour reconnaissance mission... TILT DOWN to reveal a planet. VALA (V)): But on the way we encountered a severe electromagnetic storm and lost all power. We were forced down on an uncharted, deserted planet... EXT. TROPICAL ISLAND -- DAY We see the cargo ship washed ashore on this deserted island, looking very much like the damaged S.S. Minnow. VALA (VO): We washed ashore and were forced to survive for weeks in the most primitive of conditions. No phone, no lights, no motor cars. Not a single luxury. EXT. ISLAND -- DAY Landry comes out of a hut, dressed like the Skipper. VALA (V): General Landry was with us on the mission, and let me tell you, he was in a foul mood. LANDRY: Mitchell! Mitchell runs out, dressed like Gilligan. MITCHELL: Yes, sir. LANDRY: Where's Carter? She was supposed to be done by now. MITCHELL: Oh, uh...(looks around) She's not here. Landry whacks him with his cap. LANDRY: I can see that. DANIEL: Over here... PAN TO Daniel (as the Professor) and Carter (as Mary Ann) carrying a large device out of another hut. Vala (as Ginger) trails behind them. The device looks like something constructed from bamboo and coconuts. CARTER (to Landry): I think we may have something, sir. VALA:Not a moment too soon. I must get out of this place. I have a photo shoot this afternoon. Landry stares at the device. LANDRY: What is this thing? CARTER:Well, I managed to construct a basic subspace transmitter out of coconuts, bamboo and our old subspace transmitter. DANIEL: A long shot, but it just might get us off this island. MITCHELL: That's great! Mitchell eagerly moves in for a closer look, but trips, falls and smashes the damn thing.Before Landry can whack him with his cap again -- TEAL'C emerges from the trees, dressed like Mr. Howell. He casually puffs a pipe. TEAL'C: Was I not traveling with a companion? A female by the name of... Lovey? MARTIN: Alright, enough already. FARGATE I had really enjoyed Farscape and, with both Ben Browder and Claudia Black on the show, I couldn’t resist the opportunity to do a little tribute, SG-1 style. Originally, Ben was supposed to play the part of Crichton and Michael the part of Stark, but they suggested it might be more fun to switch up the roles. SG-1 SUPERMARIONATION! Brad Wright, Robert Cooper, Paul Mullie and Carl Binder are huge fans of Team America: World Police, so I suppose it should come as no surprise that they jumped at the chance to do their own, SG-1 version. As it turned out, years ago Paul and I had worked with The Chiodo Bros. who had created the puppets and effects for Team America (as well as work on a Davey and Goliath claymation parody for The Simpsons and the Willice and Crimbles parody segment on The Simpsons). We called them up and they ended up delivering kick-ass puppet versions of our team – and supporting players. So, okay. Fess up. Which one of you fans is now the proud owner of one of these? In the writer’s draft of the script, yet another idea is pitched out… MITCHELL: Death is always dramatic. CUT TO: INT. INFIRMARY -- DAY Daniel lies on the bed. Carter, Mitchell, Vala and Landry stand around him. Vala reaches out and touches his hand - VALA: Goodbye, Daniel. The heart monitor FLATLINES. The rest of the group can barely control their emotions. Suddenly, a bright GLOW starts to emanate from under the sheets on the bed. Slowly, Daniel's body TRANSFORMS into a glowing ribbon being like in Meridian. As it rises above the bed, the sheets collapse. Amazement plays on the faces of everyone in the room. The glowing being hovers high above them for a moment then - MARTIN: No, no, no. BACK TO: INT. BRIEFING ROOM -- DAY Martin shakes his head. MARTIN: We did that twice in the series. DANIEL: You only made three episodes. How many times did we kill off Daniel again? Whenever we offed guest stars, we would invariably send them off with the heartening: “This is science fiction. Nobody ever dies in science fiction!” And, many times on Stargate, that was proven true. Then, someone pitches out the fishing segment. Martin’s response: “And what’s the twist…no fish?” is, of course, a reference to the twist at the end of Moebius I and II. THE WEDDING How couldn’t we? There was something there for the shippers – and something there for the slashers as well when O’Neill, waiting for Carter, turns to Daniel who utters the memorable: “You know, if she doesn’t show, people are gonna think that you and I –“. My favorite part of this segment is Jack referring to Carter as, well, Carter. Not Sam or Samantha but Carter. I guess old habits die hard. Martin’s response to the pitch ” Yeah, right, if I want to torture the audience on purpose!” echoes a quote from a fan letter we received that was critical of the ship. A classic line. The episode ends with a bunch of interviews teeming with inside jokes. I mean, I know we did 10 years but, dammit, we were still on a roll!

Stargate trivia: "200" (The BIG breakdown) SG-1 was about to attain the loftiest of broadcast heights – its 200th episode – and we wanted to do something special. Something unique. Something everyone on the production would enjoy as much as the longtime fans watching at home. The initial idea pitched was something called “Remember When…”, a trip down memory lane in which our characters’ reflections would form the frames of the varied flashbacks to outrageous missions. While everyone loved the idea of the outrageous missions, the premise of the episode felt too diffuse. We wanted an actual story that would form the heart of the episode. After much discussion, we elected to pay tribute to the franchise by referencing our last milestone – episode 100 – and bringing back Martin Lloyd and the show within a show, Wormhole X-Treme. But the fun we poked at the franchise through that spoof production was nothing compared to what we had in store for 200… WE FINALLY GOT TO MEET THE FURLINGS! Sort of. Even though it never really happened and we end up getting them killed in the end. Back in the show’s fourth season, not long after joining the production, I was summoned to Exec. Producer Robert Cooper’s office. He was doing his pass on our first script, Scorched Earth, and needed something from me: the name of an alien race. When pressed, he admitted naming alien races was not his forte and, as evidence, offered up “the Furlings”. I have to admit that whenever I heard the name, I always imagined a cosmic version of the Care Bears, giggling and snuggling their way through various adventures. As evidently, did everyone else on the production. The fans, however, were all sorts of curious and nary a week would go by without a fan posting a message board request for a glimpse of the elusive beings. Time wore on and those requests continued so, at one point, Brad suggested an episode in which we actually did get to meet them: a race of gaunt, towering, hairless, grey-skinned creatures. But that idea was quashed and the production went on its merry way, choosing to keep the race a mystery. But with 200 came the opportunity to honor those fan requests, and the viewers at home finally got to see those lovable furry creatures who turned out to be a cross between an ewok and a deranged koala. And then SG-1 went and got their planet blown up. Of course, we quickly reveal that the incident never actually happened and it was part of a pitch for a revival of the defunct Wormhole X-Treme t.v. series, a show that lasted an inglorious three episodes before being cancelled. But thanks to an impressive second life on dvd (following in the footsteps of Family Guy and Futurama) the show is being revived – and General O’Neill, in a desire to maintain a cover of plausible deniability for the Stargate program (and, let’s face it, screw with his old teammates) charges SG-1 with the task of creatively contributing to the production. MITCHELL TAKES ON THE LIVING DEAD! Every once in a while, actor Ben Browder would drop by the offices to pitch out an action sequence for his character – so I thought it appropriate that, given the opportunity, his character would pitch out an action sequence for – uh – his character. And, really, nothing says action like zombie hordes. Just ask fans of The Walking Dead. This sequence also allowed us the rare opportunity of witnessing Walter/Norman getting his head eaten. Double bonus! Mitchell’s idea is shot down and Martin gets on the phone with a representative of the studio. He is clearly frustrated and Mitchell asks: “Studio executives, huh?” Martin responds: “What? Oh, no Charlie? He’s a great guy. He’s the only one I trust.” This was a reference to longtime MGM President of Television and Stargate supporter Charles Cohen, one of the smartest, kindest studios executives I’ve ever had the pleasure to work with. As much as he was a fan of the show, we at the production were fans of Charlie. Martin is outraged because they lost their lead. How, he wonders, can they do the show without their lead. “You just bring in a character to replace him,”suggests Mitchell – an obvious reference to the introduction of Cam Mitchell which followed soon after the departure of longtime SG-1 lead Jack O’Neill. Carter then throws out some alternate ideas for keeping the lead alive: “Well, you could have the other characters refer to him all the time. Maybe, get him on the phone once in a while.” Yep. Been there; done that during SG-1’s seventh and eighth seasons. And then, someone references that time O’Neill was invisible… THE ADVENTURES OF INVISIBLE O'NEILL! The idea of doing an Invisible O’Neill segment was actually a joke I threw out...That ended up making the script. That happened a lot in this episode. As with all the segments, we went off and wrote them individually, and then everyone weighed in and they were tweaked. I always found the scene of O’Neill spying on Carter in the shower a tad creepy. Anyway, the Invisible O’Neill idea was embraced because we wanted Richard Dean Anderson to come back and do a cameo on this all-important episode, but didn’t know if he’d be able to work in an appearance. So, we figured we’d get the next best thing: his voice. As it turned out, he was able to swing the appearance, making 200 all that more special. THE GETAWAY Martin then pitches out a tale of high adventure, placing our heroes (SG-1) in an impossible position – and then simply cutting to them escaping through the gate. This was a tip of the hat to the many fans outraged by a similar scenario in a past episode (don’t remember the name) in which our heroes (SG-1) are surrounded by Lucian Alliance soldiers only to effect some miraculous unseen escape.

Yep, nobody hated the Earth ship beaming technology more than I did – with possible exception of actor Ben Browder. In the original version of this scene, the fun we poked at ourselves was a little more pointed: DANIEL: Beamed out. MARTIN: By the Prometheus. TEAL'C: Convenient. MARTIN: True.

Communist and socialist groups call for 'revolution' and seizure of property at Minneapolis May Day rally | Michael Dorgan, Fox News Communist and socialist groups called for a "revolution" at a May Day rally in Minneapolis Friday, highlighting the growing influence of far-left organizations at an event traditionally centered on workers’ rights. Some of those demonstrators denounced capitalism and pushed for the seizure of private property and the means of production, marking a shift in tone from past May Day rallies that primarily focused on labor issues. Protesters on the ground outlined a range of demands, including rent caps tied to income, a reduced work week and the redistribution of wealth from billionaires. The rally, which drew well over 1,000 people, was organized as an immigrant rights demonstration but brought together a broad mix of labor unions, activist organizations and far-left political groups marching side by side. Among the groups present were the Communist Party USA, the Freedom Road Socialist Organization (FRSO), the Revolutionary Communists of America (RCA), the Party for Socialism and Liberation (PSL), and members of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), with numerous participants carrying flags and signage featuring socialist imagery like the hammer and sickle. Members of the Communist Party USA were seen handing out newspapers and leaflets, including a publication titled The Communist with the headline "Down with Trump’s War!" Demonstrators carried signs reading "F--k ICE," "Abolish ICE," "Fight Trump’s Agenda," "No Kings" and "Stop the War," while others waved red flags associated with the Communist Party USA and held banners featuring the hammer and sickle, including signage from the Revolutionary Communists of America. A Fox News Digital investigation previously identified U.S.-born tech entrepreneur Neville Roy Singham, who lives in China, as a key figure in a network tied to some far-left groups involved in protests, part of a broader mobilization involving roughly 600 organizations nationwide. But demonstrators interviewed in Minneapolis said they were largely unaware of him or dismissed concerns about funding. Andy Koch, a member of the Freedom Road Socialist Organization, told Fox News Digital the U.S. is "run by billionaires" and should instead be run by working people. He said support from a a wealthy donor would be acceptable if it advanced the cause. "If one billionaire… wants to donate to progressive pro-worker causes, that’s great," Koch said. When asked for examples of successful socialist systems, Koch pointed to China, saying "China’s doing pretty good right now," and praised the former Soviet Union for having "done a lot for its people. Members of the Revolutionary Communists of America were also present, with one protester saying he was "radicalized" in 2020 following the death of George Floyd. "We’re calling for down with Trump and down with the Democrats," the protester said. Demonstrations in Minneapolis come months after large-scale anti-ICE protests with Friday’s May Day events reflecting similar themes tied to immigration enforcement and broader economic concerns. The march was organized as an immigrant rights demonstration, promoted under the slogan "Immigrants Rise! Workers Unite!" and led by groups including the Minnesota Immigrant Rights Action Committee (MIRAC). A speaker with MIRAC led chants of "No one is illegal" and "All power to the people," with large sections of the crowd repeating the slogans. The event began with organizers and speakers affiliated with the Minnesota Immigrant Rights Action Committee (MIRAC) leading chants and addressing the crowd from a makeshift stage, while dancers in indigenous regalia were also present. Socialist and communist groups initially gathered toward the back of the crowd but later joined the march, falling in line behind the immigrant rights organizers as demonstrators moved through the city. A significant contingent of socialist and communist groups marched alongside the organizers, underscoring the ideological overlap at the event. Flags throughout the march reflected a wide mix of causes and affiliations, including Palestinian flags, LGBTQ pride imagery and banners associated with socialist and communist groups. High-visibility marshals affiliated with protest groups directed the march and blocked side streets, with little to no visible police presence along much of the route. Another protester who identified as a communist said the current system is a "dead end" and argued that "the workers create all the value in society and we get to own none of it under capitalism." She said the group supports policies including rent caps tied to income and limiting rent to 10% of wages. When asked about rent-control policies in cities like New York and California, where such measures have faced criticism, one woman said those efforts failed because they were not "under workers' control." "Under capitalism, it won't work. We need a society under control of the workers," she said. Owen Phernetton, a member of the Revolutionary Communists of America, said the group is "building a party of class fighters" and argued that "we need a revolution… on a socialist basis." He said the organization supports seizing property, including factories, mines and office spaces and placing them under the ownership of the working class. "We argue for decreasing the workday to only 20 hours a week without any loss in pay," he said. He added that billionaire wealth should be "expropriated and put in use for the working class," pointing to the Soviet Union as an example. Several Minneapolis City Council members, most affiliated with the Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party (DFL), attended the rally and read out a non-binding resolution recognizing May 1 as International Workers Day. During the remarks, one speaker told the crowd "we must abolish ICE," linking labor issues with immigration policy. Jason Chavez read parts of the resolution alongside fellow council members Elliott Payne, Aurin Chowdhury, Soren Stevenson and Jamal Osman. Council member Robin Wonsley was also present. Not all observers supported the messaging. Sedonia Meyers, who said she was watching from the sidewalk, described herself as "a very centrist individual" and said immigration should follow a legal process. "If you want to be a citizen… you should work hard… and do the proper steps," she said, adding that the U.S. must "vet the people that come into this country" to ensure public safety. Two other elderly women observing nearby welcomed the presence of communist and socialist groups, describing the rally as a "big tent," and inisting that there was "room for everyone," though they did not support calls to abolish ICE. The protest concluded without major disruption, with demonstrators marching through the city in largely good spirits. A marching band played upbeat music as participants moved along the route, though speakers delivered more forceful rhetoric as they outlined their demands. Earlier in the day, smaller gatherings drew limited turnout, including a union-led rally at Government Plaza that a union leader described a union gathering with "no connection to broader protests."

Socialist and communist groups initially gathered toward the back of the crowd but later joined the march, falling in line behind the immigrant rights organizers as demonstrators moved through the city. A significant contingent of socialist and communist groups marched alongside the organizers, underscoring the ideological overlap at the event. Flags throughout the march reflected a wide mix of causes and affiliations, including Palestinian flags, LGBTQ pride imagery and banners associated with socialist and communist groups. High-visibility marshals affiliated with protest groups directed the march and blocked side streets, with little to no visible police presence along much of the route. Another protester who identified as a communist said the current system is a "dead end" and argued that "the workers create all the value in society and we get to own none of it under capitalism." She said the group supports policies including rent caps tied to income and limiting rent to 10% of wages. When asked about rent-control policies in cities like New York and California, where such measures have faced criticism, one woman said those efforts failed because they were not "under workers' control." "Under capitalism, it won't work. We need a society under control of the workers," she said. Owen Phernetton, a member of the Revolutionary Communists of America, said the group is "building a party of class fighters" and argued that "we need a revolution… on a socialist basis." He said the organization supports seizing property, including factories, mines and office spaces and placing them under the ownership of the working class. "We argue for decreasing the workday to only 20 hours a week without any loss in pay," he said. He added that billionaire wealth should be "expropriated and put in use for the working class," pointing to the Soviet Union as an example. Several Minneapolis City Council members, most affiliated with the Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party (DFL), attended the rally and read out a non-binding resolution recognizing May 1 as International Workers Day. During the remarks, one speaker told the crowd "we must abolish ICE," linking labor issues with immigration policy. Jason Chavez read parts of the resolution alongside fellow council members Elliott Payne, Aurin Chowdhury, Soren Stevenson and Jamal Osman. Council member Robin Wonsley was also present. Not all observers supported the messaging. Sedonia Meyers, who said she was watching from the sidewalk, described herself as "a very centrist individual" and said immigration should follow a legal process. "If you want to be a citizen… you should work hard… and do the proper steps," she said, adding that the U.S. must "vet the people that come into this country" to ensure public safety. Two other elderly women observing nearby welcomed the presence of communist and socialist groups, describing the rally as a "big tent," and inisting that there was "room for everyone," though they did not support calls to abolish ICE. The protest concluded without major disruption, with demonstrators marching through the city in largely good spirits. A marching band played upbeat music as participants moved along the route, though speakers delivered more forceful rhetoric as they outlined their demands. Earlier in the day, smaller gatherings drew limited turnout, including a union-led rally at Government Plaza that a union leader described a union gathering with "no connection to broader protests."

Beyond Nitro: Q. Who Ran Over Stone Cold? A. Mongo??? In the fall of 2000, ‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin returned to the WWF, looking to find out who had ‘run him over’ at the previous year’s Survivor Series (an angle necessary to provide a kayfabe explanation for a lengthy absence related to injury). Due to Austin’s romantic involvement with Debra McMichael – the former wife of Steve ‘Mongo’ McMichael, last seen on WCW television with the Four Horsemen – Vince Russo and his team had a brainwave. “We reached out to [McMichael] when WWE did the ‘who ran over Steve Austin’ storyline,” wrote Bill Banks, one of Russo’s lieutenants, in a social media pronouncement. “We wanted to bring Mongo back as a surprise to WCW and have him claim that he was the one that ran over Austin…because Austin stole Debra. “[Our] plan was to have an announcement the week before,” continued Banks, “that the person who ran over Austin had contacted WCW – and wanted to reveal himself on Nitro. The next week, the same car that hit Austin would pull up to the back of the arena. The window would open slightly to reveal someone holding a photo of Debra. After commercial, [the] car would drive into the arena…[and] out comes Mongo to cut a promo explaining the story as revenge – against Austin – for stealing Debra. If Austin wanted to do anything, Mongo would be in the ring on Nitro the next week to fight [him]. “[In other words], we were going to attempt to finish [their] storyline on WCW.” Listen to Beyond Nitro on Audible and Apple Books for more: USA: UK: Canada: Australia: Deep Cuts - Wrestling Stories in 60 Seconds!

I met this week’s guest last summer at an energy summit at Carnegie Mellon University. He heard me talking about our country’s ever-widening skills gap, our quest for energy independence, and the pressing need to reinvigorate America’s manufacturing capabilities. He pulled me aside after my remarks and spoke quickly and quietly. “You don’t know me,” he said, “but I love everything you’re doing, and I agree with everything you’ve said. I think the lack of skilled workers is probably the most pressing issue of our times. I’d like to talk to you about expanding your scholarship program.” I thanked him for his interest and directed him to the website, where people can support our efforts in a number of ways, most of which involve clicking on the red donate button. “Thanks,” he said. “My name is Thomas Tull. I’ll be in touch.” The name was familiar, but I didn’t know why. I filed it away in my short-term memory bank and went on to my next meeting, fairly sure we’d never talk again. I meet a lot of people who agree with me, often with great enthusiasm, but never follow through. On the flight home, however, I recalled our brief meeting and went looking to see who Thomas Tull was. According to Grok, he used to own laundromats and auto repair shops before forming a band called The Ghost Hounds that opens for The Rolling Stones. Interesting. An entrepreneur and musician who jams with Keith Richards and just happens to care deeply about skilled labor, energy independence, and the pressing need to reinvigorate our manufacturing base. I kept reading, however, and learned that Thomas Tull also owns a piece of the New York Yankees. And the Pittsburgh Steelers. He’s also a philanthropist who sits on the board of The Smithsonian and The Baseball Hall of Fame. Interesting. An entrepreneur, musician, sports fan, and philanthropist who happens to care deeply about skilled labor, energy independence, and the pressing need to reinvigorate our manufacturing base. I kept reading and finally realized why I knew his name. Thomas Tull started a movie studio a few years ago called Legendary Entertainment. With zero experience in the entertainment industry, he produced a movie called 300 – which told the story of Sparta’s storied defense of Thermopylae while making Gerard Butler’s abs eternally famous. He then formed a relationship with Christopher Nolan and produced an extraordinary film called Inception. And then, The Dark Knight trilogy. And then, the entire Hangover franchise. And so forth. Unlike traditional studio heads, Thomas treated movie production like a diversified portfolio. He was among the first to use advanced data analytics and AI to determine how to market films and figure out which projects were worth the risk. Forty films later, Thomas sold Legendary for $3.5 billion dollars and started a company called Tulco, which is currently in the process of changing the world through massive investments in AI and defense. He’s also involved in the business of de-extinction and currently trying to bring back the woolly mammoth and dodo bird. Interesting. An entrepreneur, musician, sports fan, philanthropist, Hollywood producer, investor, naturalist, and multi-billionaire tech genius who happens to care deeply about skilled labor, energy independence, and the pressing need to reinvigorate our manufacturing base. It was at this point I began to wish I had taken Thomas Tull’s phone number. Happily, there was no need. Thomas reached out to my office a few days later and asked if we could continue our conversation on my podcast. That struck me as a fantastic idea. “I’ll come to you,” he said. “At your convenience.” “How about now?” I asked. And so, Thomas Tull flew across the country to record the conversation you’re about to hear. We discussed a lot, including his relationship with my favorite backup singer of all time and the curious way he’s always found himself adjacent to greatness over the course of his extraordinary career. I loved every minute of our conversation, and I bet you will, too. And now, I have his phone number…

NASA, OCCULT RITUALS & MOLDING SOCIETY. This is where many of the elite and members of governments belief systems stem from. How does a NASA/JPL scientist, Scientologist, and Satanic Sex cults have anything to do with what's going on today? And most important, why are their open Satanist running our government and intelligence agencies performing literal Satanic rituals in the desert in the middle of nowhere and for what exact reason? Why would they continue to do this if it's allegedly not real, or is their something that they know, that they're not sharing with the rest of the world? Let's break down the ritual they performed and who these people are. Jack Parsons was an open Satanist and one of the founding fathers of rocketry, along with Wernher von Braun-Nazi and creator of the V2 rocket, who worked with NASA and was a student and follower of Aliester Crowley's Satanic religion called Thelema. Aliester Crowley was an open Satanist and the father of the "sexual revolution" who was also a British MI5 spy. He also was a huge contributor and into pedophil*a and transgenderism, which all go hand in hand with Satanic belief systems and a major part of ceremonial ritualistic magic, like child sacrifice. He also had a lot to do with the Tavistock Institute's study on mind control, and nondirectly influenced the CIA's Mk Ultra program in the west with his book, "The Drug Diaries," which was all about mind control and drugs. Go figure. Crowley once stated that the perfect candidate for child sacrifice is a young white male child, the younger the better, because of their purity and innocence which is crucial for these sick demonic practices which are still conducted to this day. Then you have L. Ron Hubbard, writer and father of science fiction, who also is the founder of the created religion known as Scientology. If you don't know much about Scientology, just know that they have an alien god named Xenu who brough billions of people to earth 75 million years ago. This alone should pretty much tell you everything you need to know. Aliester Crowley wrote about the connection, explaining that an "intelligence" was brought into physical manifestation, via a portal that was created during a Sex Magick ritual called the Almalantrah Working in 1918. The entity that was summoned called itself "LAM." Crowley considered it to be an interdimensional being, which oddly, and strongly resembled what we call an alien "grey." So performing Satanic rituals, an "alien grey" allegedly made contact. Is it really what it says it is or looks like? Or is it something lying to humanity? That's a whole other post to talk about that subject. Many Occult disciples believe the portal Crowley opened might have been widened or another portal was opened during the Babalon Working. The Babalon Working Ritual was a series of "Magick rituals" performed from January to March, 1946, by author, pioneer rocket-fuel scientist and Satanist Jack Parsons and Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard and Marjorie Cameron. The ritual was essentially designed to manifest an individual incarnation of Babalon. The project was based on the ideas of Satanist Aliester Crowley, and his description of a similar project in his 1917 novel, Moonchild. The "Moonchild" or "Whore of Babylon" is referred to in several places in the Book of Revelation, a book which may have had influence on "Thelema," which is Aliester Crowley's Satanic Religion, and says he read it as a child and imagined himself as the "Beast." She is described in Chapter 17:3-6. Almost immediately after Parsons declared that the first of the series of rituals was complete and successful, he met Marjorie Cameron in his own home, and regarded her as the elemental that he and Hubbard had called through the ritual. Soon Parsons began the next stage of the series, an attempt to conceive a child through sex magic workings. Although no child was conceived, this did not affect the result of the ritual to that point. Parsons and Cameron, who Parsons now regarded as the Scarlet Woman, Babalon, called forth by the ritual, soon married. The rituals performed drew largely upon rituals and sex magic described by English author and occult teacher Aleister Crowley. Crowley was in correspondence with Parsons during the course of the Babalon Working, and warned Parsons of his potential overreactions to the Magick he was performing, while simultaneously deriding Parsons' work to others. One very coincidental happening I want to point out is that the aim was to incarnate the Thelemic goddess Babalon in a human being. The rituals were conducted in the spring of 1946, with the specific date of October 26th being a significant point in the process. Guess who's birthday is October 26th, 1947? Hillary Clinton. Just a fascinating coincidence. There's no real evidence that Hillary is the moonchild. That we know of. Just an interesting fact. Now we will get to the part where this ties into modern day belief systems of the elite and wealthy individuals and the sexual and counter culture revolutions that were literally planned for society. It connects back to the 1920s-1930s to when very wealthy individuals and elite were all into the same belief systems and practices that such people like Aliester Crowley were promoting. A drug fueled, counter culture, sexual revolution, backed by Satanic beliefs and practices and engulfed with pedophil*a, transgenderism, transhuman, and paganistic beliefs and practices. These were the individuals who built our society's culture and who purposely have been molding and steering society through major institutions like Tavistock and the Esalen Institute, along with many others, who were run and founded by major wealthy players and backed by people like the Rockefellers. They literally have been telling us about their plans through symbolism and writings and publications for decades. And the last part of their plan for their "New World Order, was the sexual revolution, which you see being heavily pushed on our society and children, especially now right out in the open in our education systems. All of the people running these institutions, the banks, big tech, the music industry, Hollywood, you name it, all of their beliefs, views and opinions stem from places like the specific institutions that I mentioned along with our own intelligence agencies and others with the same beliefs, engineered by known Satanist and pagans, which derived from centuries ago, being brought into modern day society and purposely pushing this garbage to mold our society to fulfill their personal world views and beliefs on society. Do you remember what took place and was happening in society right before Rome fell? It's widely considered the last things that happen before a society collapses. Transgenderism and pedophil*a. Pay attention. Everything happening today has been planned and engineered decades ago. It's time to fight back ladies and gentleman. The truth is definitely stranger than fiction.
