    The Great Race: Joey Chestnut Vs Usain Bolt

    On the September 26th episode #276 of Razor Wire, Fitz and McShane open reactions to one of Jefé's coworker’s chaotic locker photo, warning it’s a major red flag, then pivot into headlines: a new U.S.-Denmark-Greenland defense agreement granting broad, effectively open-ended U.S. overflight, transit, and basing rights while restricting adversary influence in Greenland, framed as strategic Arctic positioning and added pressure on Canada. They discuss severe weather including a major typhoon causing nationwide emergency conditions in Thailand, storms hitting Hawaii, a nor’easter up the U.S. East Coast, and Hurricane Polo approaching Mexico, plus skepticism around renewed Noah’s Ark coverage and the site’s appearance. They drink and review beers, including a smoked German doppelbock and Santa Santa Cervecería sours, later praising a cucumber-lime gose; Fitz shares a Greenland overflight memory. They cover a lesbian bar controversy over a weekly maskless night, play Lauren Boebert pushing back on an ethics smear, mock Nancy Mace’s “Get Mace’d” podcast, react to Smokey Robinson’s “Gasms,” critique “Trump TV” as state-run media, and note investors suing the New York Times board over accuracy. Jefe joins with a “farm report” on drongo birds using false alarms and mimicry to steal food, shares his tidy locker, weighs in on movies with a review of The Menu, and they end with more beer talk and chat shoutouts.

    Press Room Purge, Fake Hawking & Our Baby Girl El Jefé

    On a Saturday night episode of Razor Wire, Fitz, McShane, and Jefe banter about Fitz injuring himself before the show and joking about hiring a “show fluffer,” then pivot into beer talk, reviewing Lucky Envelope Brewing’s Pumpkin Emoji Spiced Cream Stout and Tin Barn Brewing’s 12% “Six by Six” anniversary quad IPA, later adding KCBC’s Zocktoberfest lager and Deschutes’ port barrel-aged Black Butte 38 imperial porter. They shout out listeners, recommend James Graves’ podcast “How to Survive Teaching, The Zombie Apocalypse and Other Natural Disasters,” and rave about the “Dungeon Crawler Carl” audiobook series and narrator Jeff Hays. The show then dives into a critique of “AI doom” narratives, arguing nonprofits like METR and groups tied to effective altruism are industry-linked, donor-funded, and used as a familiar COVID-era playbook to push regulation, shape media coverage, and seek government liability protection; they highlight claims about media outlets being funded through fellowships and discuss a Netflix-adjacent AI documentary trailer as fear-mongering. They react to Paula White’s tithing appeal as tasteless, celebrate Trump banning CNN, MSNBC, and Politico from the White House press environment while airing commentary from Link Lauren, and cover “troop movement” talk including U.S. space weapons and speculation about rivals. Jefe delivers a farm report on Darwin’s frog males incubating eggs in a vocal sac, and they discuss an Australian 2032 Olympic rowing venue planned on a crocodile-filled river. They dismiss ongoing UFO “disclosure” as noise, then highlight a feel-good segment on Neuralink enabling an ALS patient to communicate “I love you,” using it to contrast hopeful tech with propaganda. They also discuss quantum navigation without GPS and question the Stephen Hawking public narrative, suggesting translation/ghostwriting concerns and connecting skepticism to broader distrust in media and science.

    Doomsday

    This week (Saturday, Sept. 12, 6:35 PM), Fitz and McShane discuss a major AI “end of the world” narrative sparked by Jacob Coxon resigning from Anthropic and warning that OpenAI and Anthropic are racing toward destructive superintelligence; the guys argue the threat is real but the viral rollout appears coordinated, tying it to prior Hugging Face talk, media amplification, Anthropic’s IPO ambitions, Bernie Sanders and Rep. Greg Casar’s Ban Artificial Super Intelligence Act, Bill Gates’ partnership with Anthropic, and concerns that regulation would crush independent developers while rivals like China keep advancing. They debate safety vs. geopolitics, cite a Joe Rogan interview about AI agents “breaking out,” and cover OpenAI’s claimed Navier–Stokes breakthrough and credit disputes. The episode also includes election/vote-buying chatter, algorithm oddities, Hunter Biden’s meme coin, a Tucker Carlson algebra clip, German election reactions, nuclear spaceship mentions, extensive beer tasting, and comic segments about Jefe’s birthday and a gifted “murse,” plus a humorous AI-generated birthday song and a brief “Farm Report” on unusual orchids.

    Gerald and Jefes Lesbian Friend

    On Labor Day weekend episode of Razor Wire News, McShane and Fitz open with beer banter and off-color merch jokes before diving into the week’s topics: Canadian PM Mark Carney complains that Americans should stop “doing memes,” prompting an avalanche of AI edits and Carney quickly signaling he’s ready to talk trade; he was “memed into submission.” They discuss a juvenile-but-funny White House drop of five retro arcade-style games (including a Tetris-like one) and note Tetris is unhappy about copyright, while arguing border enforcement is still a serious issue. They slam Bernie Sanders’ bill to ban AI as anti-American in an arms-race with China, joking they’d rather face an “American AI terminator” than a Chinese one. Later, they roast the 2026 Socialism Conference in Chicago (2,600 sign-ups), highlight a speaker arguing the left should stop trying to be “fitter than the fascists,” and trace funding to major foundations including Tides, Rockefeller, Ford, and others. They revisit Nepal’s catastrophic flood via meteorologist Chris Martz, rejecting climate-change blame and calling it bedrock collapse and reporting effects, then pivot to UN climate messaging, geomagnetic-field theories, El Niño, a hurricane-less Atlantic, and multiple Indonesian volcanic eruptions around Krakatau. Jefé drops in with a “Farm Report” about the pistol shrimp’s cavitation “shot” (218 dB, extreme heat, flash of light). The episode also detours into the WNBA commissioner “retiring,” Hunter Biden’s “48.6% gay” remark, Ryan Reynolds’ comments about the ’80s while promoting “Mayday,” and a viral video classifying movies by political ideology, before closing with standout beers and a call to think critically.

    Weird Things To Put In Your Mouth

    Razor Wire News hosts Fitz and McShane recap a chaotic week mixing major geopolitical narratives with bizarre tabloid stories and show banter. Fitz wishes his mother a happy birthday, while they preview topics including a Venezuela oil deal, renaming Lake Ontario as “Lake of America,” and intensified China-related narratives (election manipulation, audio hijacking, bot farms, and data-center issues). They discuss U.S.–Canada tariff disputes, claiming longstanding Canadian tariffs are higher than U.S. increases, and suggest Alberta may separate from Canada due to oil restrictions. They argue the Venezuela deal undercuts China and Russia, could help refill the SPR, and better matches Gulf Coast refinery needs, though they disagree on near-term gas-price impacts and note U.S. infrastructure limits. They cover claims the FBI eliminated a 1.8 million DNA-forensics backlog but question how and what it means for investigations. The hosts react positively to reports of tax crackdowns targeting George Soros nonprofits, the Southern Poverty Law Center, and CAIR, while noting Scott Bessent’s past ties to Soros. Other topics include Portland Antifa labeled domestic terrorists, a Tibet–Nepal glacier flood disaster with large death and missing counts, and skepticism toward climate-change framing. Lighter segments include beer reviews (a disappointing pumpkin-spice scotch ale, Dragon’s Milk Coconut Rum Barrel Reserve, and a Russian Imperial stout), a “fart corner” classroom story, a Los Angeles proposal for homeless sexual-relief clinics, masking hours at San Francisco’s Exploratorium, Pennsylvania Gov. Shapiro’s disputed measles-death claims, cosmic-radiation links to flight attendant breast cancer and weakened magnetosphere concerns, and a debate over human pheromones and “pheromone maxing.” Jefe joins for rapid-fire questions, roulette anecdotes, and a “farm report” on unusual foods eaten worldwide.

    Safe Words

    Ftz and McShane open with beer talk—Hopworks’ Fuzzy Navel peach sour, Abomination’s Fall Harvester sour, plus stouts—before diving into the week’s narratives. They highlight the UK Home Office’s nine-page “Understanding behaviors and expectations” pamphlet for asylum seekers warning about women’s rights, rape, and domestic abuse, then mock interviews where officials dodge whether it admits a migrant crime problem while the UK PM touts removals. They discuss the Jason Arday plagiarism scandal and a Kaizen analogy arguing universities protected Arday because of race and ignored scrutiny until it ended tragically. The hosts question climate-paper funding incentives, then slam California’s first-in-nation rule phasing out most replacement tires by rolling-resistance standards, arguing it raises costs and reduces safety. They bring in Jefe for casino stories and later a “farm report” on the bombardier beetle’s chemical “micro-explosions,” plus quick hits on China’s World Robotics Games. They expose Democratic-city donor-matching programs—spotlighting Karen Bass’ LA pitch and ActBlue tie-ins—calling it taxpayer-funded campaign amplification. They also cover Trump’s temporary ground-beef import tariff relief, a Dearborn council rant about Sharia law, and CNN’s critique of RFK Jr.’s “Real Food” cooking segments, arguing the network misrepresents per-serving costs and ignores pantry economics.

    Black Hole Star

    On Razor Wire News (, Fitz returns from Indiana training educators, recounting a surreal Amish/Mennonite encounter at a Mandarin-speaking Chinese buffet and extreme Midwest weather including a derecho, flooding, and tornado warnings. The hosts riff on a WNBA update about leaders unable to define “woman,” celebrate Caitlin Clark’s stat dominance, and highlight Royce White’s viral “nine inches of clitoris” post—plus a parody song. They condemn Wall Street Journal/CNN claims about the USS Abraham Lincoln, citing Navy leadership: 266 days deployed, 10,000 sorties, 1.5 million pounds of ordnance, 84% retention, and only a small number of treated mental-health cases. They discuss Wisconsin primary “election shenanigans” involving late-night vote dumps and missing USB-stick results. Jefe drops trivia and a farm report on Brazil’s banana spider, whose bite can cause prolonged painful erections. Science talk covers earthquake/volcano clustering, Chile’s reported pre-quake lights, and an MIT story suggesting black holes may spawn stars; they also mention Bryan Johnson claiming organ cloning. Beer/cider reviews and chat banter close out the show. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/razor-wire-news--5683729/support. www.razorwirenews.com

    Let Her Play! Let Her Play!

    On Saturday’s “Razor Wire,” Fitz and McShane return from a week off with travel stories from Indiana—training educators (including a Mennonite preschool), discovering the Mennonite/Amish split, raving about The Chubby Trout’s diverse crowd, and accidentally walking into a Micro Wrestling Federation night while trying to discuss psychological profiles. The show then pivots to Anthony Fauci pleading the Fifth 111 times despite having a Biden pardon, including refusing even basic questions, and the hosts argue it reopens COVID wounds, mirrors his AIDS-era playbook, and may be a political distraction. Fitz declares for the WNBA draft. They tear into the WNBA’s controversy over protecting women’s sports after Sophie Cunningham’s comments, criticize coaching rhetoric about inclusion, and highlight responses from Enes Kanter Freedom and Royce White declaring for the WNBA to expose perceived policy contradictions; Bob Costas is cited arguing “common sense is not transphobic.” Beer talk runs throughout, featuring Epic Brewing’s Big Bad Baptist stouts (Gingerbread and Orange Twist) and Zul Beer Company’s Betty’s Blueberry Peach Cobbler sour. Jefe drops in live from casino work with pit-floor drama, then delivers a “farm report” on Australia’s newly found “ballista spider,” which builds a spring-loaded silk trap that launches ants into its web. The episode closes with reactions to scientists proposing halving the global population by 2200, AI-designed viruses that kill E. coli, a far-future scheme to move Earth away from the sun, and a “Ball Scratch Simulator” game preview.
