Show Notes
BEST OF: The 2025 Osaka Expo is being held in that city from April 13 to October 13 of the same year. Although construction of the facilities, including the now world’s largest wooden structure termed the “Grand Ring,” began in late 2021, planning for the event dates back to 2017 and 2018, when the city bid was submitted and later when it was approved. What’s really incredible is the site was built on Yumeshima, an artificial island in Osaka Bay. Like many world expos there is an emphasis on new technologies as well as cultural understanding. This particular expo features AI, “sustainable” technology, and new forms of cashless payment systems, things that would have been fantasy to people in 1890s. However, the electric lights, ferris wheel, and technology of the Chicago World’s Fair in 1893, although fantastic to the 27 million people who attended, are nothing but background noise in the 21st-century. The same will be said of technology at the Osaka Expo in one hundred years.
The Chicago version was larger by almost double the size of square miles - 0.6 vs 1.07. But the size of the Osaka fair is limited not only because of its location, but due to the fact that it was designed by Japanese architects and is intended to emphasize sustainability and smaller more simpler designs - things that are very Japanese to begin with. Yet there are few things about the expo that are different from the 1893 Chicago World Fair.
In context, the Osaka Expo might help one to understand the Chicago version, or the various other similar fairs held around the world in that time period. Despite conspiracy theorists saying that the Chicago expo was built in 2 years and then destroyed, the facts are contrary to this. Preparation and some limited construction began within the decade previous, even before the bid was approved in 1890 and the fair opened in 1893. The surface level construction took between two and three years, about the same timeframe Osakas’s fair was built, and the modern Museum of Science is a remnant of one of those Chicago buildings. Even if all buildings were destroyed or repurposed there is still an assumption about the reasoning for such a thing to happen. Consider the immense amount of money and time spent on the bid and construction of an Olympic coliseum for a two week event in a major city. Then there is the eastern philosophy of Wabi Sabi, which talks about the beauty of impermanence or certain perceived flaws. In Japan this is part of the reason that the Ise Jingu Grand Shrine of the Sun Goddess, with its beautiful wooden designs, is torn down every 20 years and rebuilt.
The idea that the Chicago World’s Fair was part of some lost empire is based on assumptions about technology and history and time periods, uncontrolled speculation, and a basic lack of historical and modern context, not to mention click-bait, clout-chasing, and cash-grabbing fantasy.

Are data centers being built for Internet fun, are they a hoax, or are they being used to build a body and language system to process an alien intelligence? Chris Michaels and Ryan Gable sit down for a shared show to discuss this and much more, including how UFOs, vaccines, NASA photos, nuclear bomb videos, etc., are sketches, computer models, interpretations, and fake respectively.
Who is Andrew Gentile, aka, AJ Gentile? And who or what is his hecklefish? Interviews with Joe Rogan and Shawn Ryan have revealed both his entertainment background and his Jewish family history, despite his identity as a gentile in more than name. A recent lawsuit has portrayed him as a content creator, whose very first attempt at making a Youtube video for "The Why Files" garnered an impossible 4 million views even though he claimed nobody was watching. Another overnight sensation with a Hollywood and Jewish background, AJ Gentile and his fish repeat the same conspiracy mythology and sensationalist talking points, often followed by a rejection of the same, or a debunking; or rather, an undermining of the entire idea that there may be something beyond authority and mainstream narratives. He did so recently on Shawn Ryan by tying the banking industry and Rothschilds to lizard people and Jews to undermine the conversation. According to IMDB, he also "writes software for use in government agencies."
For years the public was both warned and assured that genetic engineering was either a major problem or our salvation. With some companies shutting down, amid widespread rejection of the technology, and the USDA saying cattle are not genetically modified, it appears GMO fish and beef -- in whatever capacity they failed -- have transitioned to 3D printing. One of the leaders in this industry is Steakholder Foods, an Israeli company that markets their products as "exceptional texture and genuine quality." The company recently launched their Perfecta (which suggests perfection) which includes products like 3D steak, chicken and salmon. Their website uses an asian woman as a front, while deeper scrolling reveals Benjamin Netanyahu overseeing the printing of synthetic foods. Yet another attempt to replace the organic world with a synthetic one, while also profiting and posturing as saviors. They can also print candy.
Ryan and @IanMalcolm84 team up on shared simulcast between "The Secret Teachings" and an X-space to hold a conversation on how across cultures and time, the same accusations and actions are made and taken against the same group of people with small hats. Despite all the censorship, threats, fines, jail time, war, etc., and no matter where or when, "antisemitism finds a way."
What is resting witch face? Is it the new bitch face and should it instead be called MAGA or Mar-a-Lago face, even though it crosses party lines? Are these witches actually aliens, or are they trolling the public? This may be the case, considering what appears to be attempts to make viral moments mirror AI generated images of aliens; what appears to be a shift in UFO disclosure to vague statements about non-human intelligences in Washington DC that look human but aren't. Plastic surgery does not universally produce such terrible work, implying that the mutilation of these faces, including people with direct access to the halls of power, are occuring for other reasons, perhaps sexual ones, or shame, blackmail, etc. Accompanying the faces are often bizarre behaviors, neurological disorders, and laughing episodes. Are they suffering from kuru? Are they cannibals?
