Will Disclosure Challenge YOUR Beliefs? | MTS #12

Steven Spielberg's Disclosure Day and this past week's UAP press conference on the steps of the US Capitol open the door to a much bigger conversation we're still trying to puzzle out: Are non-human intelligences really here? Are they corporeal (or incorporeal) biological beings? Are they demons? Something else? What would disclosure do to Christian theology and modern materialism? How should we treat testimony, anomalous evidence, claims of cursed movies, and confident authorities who may not know nearly as much as they think? We examine these questions, brittle belief systems, Moby-Dick as an "alien work," the phenomenon of the "human download," religious experience, Skinwalker Ranch, quantum weirdness, aging, AI, fear porn, and the possibility that storytellers may be uniquely equipped to help us approach the unknown.

Is AI Eating Our Curiosity? | MTS #11

In this episode, Kale and Steve begin by discussing aging, money anxiety, and the uncomfortable lessons they wish they could send back to their younger selves. From there, the conversation turns toward AI fatigue, Magnifica Humanitas (the new papal encyclical on artificial intelligence), and the question of whether AI is taking away our desire to learn, to know, and to grow. They cover classroom life, surveillance work, phones, boredom, literacy, friendship, education, Shakespeare, suffering, and the question underneath all of it: what remains most human when the machines get better at almost everything? This is a conversation about curiosity, attention, formation, old books, modern tech, and why boredom might be more necessary than we want to admit.

Convergences: New UFO Files, Government Secrecy, & Control | MTS #10

A new round of UFO/UAP files, Eric Weinstein’s recent comments on Joe Rogan, alleged CIA whistleblower claims, Skinwalker Ranch, White Sands, Epstein, string theory, AI, Mars, and the deeper question underneath all of it: who is actually in control? In Episode 10 of Monitoring the Situation, Steve Skojec and Kale Zelden follow the convergences between government secrecy, scientific gatekeeping, media silence, technological acceleration, and the strange breakdown of the modern story about reality. This is not just a conversation about UFOs. It is a conversation about evidence, trust, power, disclosure, and what happens when the institutions that claim to explain the world no longer seem capable of explaining what is happening inside it.

UFOs, UAPs, Demons, Disclosure, & Deception | MTS #09

The biggest UAP week in years is unfolding right as the first major Trump-era UFO document dump is expected. Kash Patel says releases are coming “literally in the very near future.” Rumors are bubbling it will happen by the end of the week. Is this real disclosure — or narrative sabotage? In this episode, Steve & Kale give a full UFO 101 then dive into the current chaos: deep state, black programs to recover and reverse engineer craft, secret pastor briefings, Grusch’s Catholic pushback on all the "demon" talk, the infamous Collins Elite, and why this moment feels different in years of build-up to "disclosure."

Narrative Shaping in the Digital Thunderdome | MTS #8

In a world drowning in manufactured narratives, how do you know what’s real? From the SPLC’s shocking indictment and the latest assassination attempt on Trump, to the mechanics of belief, permission structures, and why radical isolation + digital mythcraft turns smart people into fanatics. This is a raw, wide-ranging masterclass on: • Epistemic humility in the age of infinite propaganda • How stories become spirits that possess people • The SPLC funding the very “hate groups” it profited from fighting • What happened with the White House Correspondents' Dinner Shooter • Why the digital Skinner Box makes real-world violence feel like a video game • The coming explosion of analog as the ultimate rebellion against AI and hyper-reality If you’re tired of being spun, gaslit, and herded by the current thing — this episode is for you.

The AI SUPERSONIC TSUNAMI is Coming – Will It Destroy or Save Us All? | MTS #7

Elon Musk calls it the "Supersonic Tsunami" – and it’s about to hit harder than anything in human history. In this raw, no-BS conversation, Steve Skojec and Kale Zelden go deep on the AI asteroid heading straight for Earth. We’re talking: AI & humanoid robots creating hyper-abundance (free stuff for everyone?) Data centers in space, solar power from orbit, and robots building robots Why college might become pointless and what “universal high income” could actually look like The terrifying speed of change: AGI this year? Robots doing surgery better than humans in 3-4 years? Jobs disappearing, meaning of life shifting, and whether this ends in utopia or chaos We don’t sugarcoat it. The hype is real. The threat is real. And the math? It maths. This isn’t another surface-level AI podcast. It’s two regular guys (not Silicon Valley bros) rabbit-holing the biggest paradigm shift since the Industrial Revolution – and what it means for normal people like us. If you’re worried about your job, your kids’ future, or just want to understand what the hell is coming in the next 3-5 years… listen to this.

Lost in the Infinite Scroll: AI, UAP Cover-Ups & the End of Real News | MTS #6

In this wide-ranging conversation, Steve and Kale wrestle with the feeling that reality itself is getting harder to pin down. From the dopamine doom loop of endless monitoring on X, to the collapse of the post-war consensus, the “scriptification” of news, vanishing scientists tied to advanced propulsion and UAP programs, Bob Lazar’s enduring story, and the sense that the singularity may already be here—we’re all lost in the infinite scroll, struggling to figure out "What's even real?"

The Skinner Box | MTS #5

In this episode, Kale and Steve explore the concept of the "Skinner Box" and its implications for understanding human behavior, social control, and the digital age. They talk about the impact of digital surveillance, the importance of human agency and faith in navigating a complex, controlled world, the potential for awakening, the role of religious and philosophical resilience, and the hope for a future rooted in truth and human flourishing.

The War For Iran | MTS #4

In this episode, Steve and Kale discuss the recent escalation of geopolitical tensions, particularly focusing on the conflict with Iran in Operation Epic Fury. They explore the cultural phenomenon of 'monitoring the situation,' the implications of recent attacks, the CIA manipulation of governments and individuals, brainwashing, AI in military use, and the complexities of terrorism both domestically and internationally.

The 5 Forces Re-Shaping the World | MTS #3

In this episode, Kale and Steve explore the emotional landscape of change in contemporary society, discussing the palpable sense of a gathering storm on the horizon. They delve into the historical context of current events, the overwhelming nature of modern life, and the forces shaping our future, including the end of the post-war order and the rapid evolution of artificial intelligence. The discussion also touches on the reality crisis characterized by misinformation and the erosion of trust in institutions and loss of religious belief, the emotional connections formed with AI, the implications of demographic decline, the potential for space exploration to offer solutions to existential threats, and the implications of UAP/UFO phenomena and the mounting push for government disclosure.
