  Have Researchers Found Noah’s Ark? | Lauren Witzke | The Jeff Dornik Show

  Sep 28, 202622 min

  Could researchers finally be closing in on evidence of Noah’s Ark? Lauren Witzke joins Jeff Dornik for a special edition of The Jeff Dornik Show to discuss the ongoing investigation of the Durupinar Formation in Turkey and the work being conducted by the Noah’s Ark Scans team. Witzke says researchers have identified what they believe to be a non-geological structure beneath the surface containing organized patterns, corridors, chambers and three distinct levels. The team is conducting core drilling, soil sampling and other non-destructive testing, with samples being sent to third-party laboratories—including samples being examined for possible ancient animal DNA. jeff ark She also discusses radar scans, the history of previous investigations at the site, cooperation with Turkish researchers and authorities, the biblical dimensions attributed to the Ark, and what the team hopes to learn through future testing. jeff ark Lauren and Jeff also explore the larger theological implications of the project, creationism, evolution, the Genesis flood account and why Lauren believes establishing the identity of the structure could have enormous consequences for the creation-versus-evolution debate. The investigation is not finished. The team says additional scanning, laboratory analysis and preservation work are planned, with hopes of eventually receiving permission to excavate the site.

  Turns Out Tyranny Is a Personality Disorder ｜ Dr Joseph Sansone ｜ The Jeff Dornik Show_v7dx9ic

  Sep 28, 20261h 3m

  What if authoritarianism isn’t simply a political problem, but a psychological one? Dr. Joseph Sansone joins The Jeff Dornik Show to discuss his concept of “psychopathic authoritarianism” and how traits including sadism, narcissism, Machiavellianism and psychopathy can manifest not only in individuals, but throughout institutions and society. Turns Out Tyranny Is a Personal… Jeff and Dr. Sansone examine political tribalism, learned helplessness, public apathy, government surveillance, war, artificial intelligence and the increasing centralization of power. They also discuss why people can become so emotionally invested in political movements that those movements become part of their identity—and why that can make independent criticism difficult. Turns Out Tyranny Is a Personal… The conversation ultimately comes back to individual agency: refusing apathy, thinking critically, taking responsibility and recognizing that ordinary people have more power than they often believe. Turns Out Tyranny Is a Personal… Follow Jeff Dornik and Dr. Joseph Sansone on PickAx.

  Hegseth Only Wants Pretty Warfighters | DeProgram with Ted Rall and Jamarl Thomas

  Sep 24, 20261h 1m

  Pete Hegseth wants a tougher, more masculine military—but is Washington becoming more concerned with how American warfighters look than whether America's military can actually win wars?Ted Rall, Jamarl Thomas and Robby West dig into Hegseth's emphasis on appearance, grooming and physical standards before widening the discussion into a much larger argument about American military power, political priorities and a country that can spend enormous resources overseas while struggling to maintain basic infrastructure at home.The conversation turns to Brian Mast wearing an IDF uniform and the distinction between political disloyalty, conflicts of interest and the Constitution's narrow legal definition of treason. The hosts debate U.S. support for Israel and ask whose interests American elected officials are supposed to represent.From there, the discussion moves into the Houthis, Iran, Afghanistan, Chechnya, Somalia and World War II to examine why materially weaker forces can remain extraordinarily difficult to defeat. One possible explanation is brutally simple: America can eventually leave. For people fighting on their own territory, losing may mean losing everything.The show also tackles the symbolism surrounding the remains of fallen soldiers, Puerto Rico and American infrastructure, Macklemore's outspoken support for Palestinians, Robert Kraft's response and whether attempts to suppress political speech can produce a Streisand effect by giving the controversy an even larger audience.Finally, Ted, Jamarl and Robby discuss growing tensions between the United States and Canada and what America's changing relationships with its traditional allies could mean for the country's place in the world.Topics include: Pete Hegseth and military standards; optics versus military effectiveness; U.S. infrastructure; Brian Mast and the IDF; Israel and American foreign policy; the Houthis and asymmetric warfare; Afghanistan and Somalia; military culture; Puerto Rico; Macklemore and Robert Kraft; Palestine and political speech; Canada, tariffs and U.S. alliances.DeProgram with Ted Rall and Jamarl Thomas — political analysis, history, foreign policy and unscripted debate.
