Phil Elmore explains why Alec Baldwin will never face real consequences for killing a woman (and it's not what you think). Also, fake-news factory Buzzfeed News has shut down (sort of); there's a proliferation of made-up stories posing as news (and then everybody clapped); almost all "hate crime" news articles are complete made up; The Chinese are running secret police stations on (to them) foreign soil; they're going to seize kitchen knives from "suspected" criminals' homes in the UK, where self-defense is illegal; people keep shooting people without properly assessing the threats offered; Hollywood celebrities need to stop going to whatever doctor is giving them Joker Face; and much, much more in this week's episode. https://linktr.ee/philelmore

Phil Elmore looks at political hypocrisy where Hunter Biden is concerned (natch), the pesky problem of people claiming to be subversive teachers on social media, bank failures, the raccoon dogs of the Wuhan market, Dr. Rachel Levine's wonderful world of imagination, the Loyola professor who thinks well-organized pantries are white supremacy, more political hypocrisy, the fungal war among ant species who are on the front lines of stopping "The Last of Us" from becoming reality, and much more in this episode of Surviving the News. https://linktr.ee/philelmore

The folks at the Daily Wire have created a spite-chocolate because Hershey's has gone woke; Disney continues to butcher classics by race- and gender-swapping them; AI "journalism" has done CNET no favors. Meanwhile, there's a glut of "news" articles that aren't really news, 30 million bucks of Funko Pops are getting dumped in a landfill, popular culture continues to hate on white people and Christians, and NASA announces we have a viable solution to the threat of asteroids hurtling toward us (something 8-year-old me was very worried about). Oh, and the "Day of Hate" scheduled for last Saturday was canceled for lack of interest, apparently. Phil Elmore tackles all this and much more in this episode of Surviving the News. https://linktr.ee/philelmore

A Japanese town has put out a terrifying wolf robot to keep away wild bears, and I for one would like to signal my willingness to cooperate with our new terrifying wolf robot masters. Also, don't carry a gun near an MRI because you'll probably get killed. Tiny computers have helped us track what happened to several species of now-extinct snails, but the problem is really using science-fiction horror movie solutions for our problems. Some guy on LinkedIn wrote an article and some other person got upset about it. Leo DiCaprio is living his best life; shoplifters are being tracked with advanced software at Wal-Mart; a rancher was arrested for killing a trespassing illegal alien; AI news is as off-putting and weird as you'd expect. Oh, and leftists keep shooting Republican politicians in New Jersey, but the media doesn't care (predictably). Phil Elmore covers all this and much, much more in this episode of Surviving the News. https://linktr.ee/philelmore

Slap fighting is stupid and you shouldn't do it. Also, there's a tiny piece of drywall on my face from where I was installing anchors using my new power-screwdriver; watch as I eventually brush it off without ever realizing it was there. AI video and audio simulation continues to show us that we can't trust what we see and hear; you can go to aiwritingsucks.com if you want to read my thoughts on AI writing and art. A Twich streamer humiliates himself by donning sackcloth and ashes after getting caught looking at AI-generated naughty videos; a woman in German found a lookalike and murdered the beauty blogger in order to fake her own death; words mean things; mutilating your body is a bad idea. All this and more can be found in this episode of Surviving the News with Phil Elmore. https://linktr.ee/philelmore

Phil Elmore explains the #StevenCrowder vs. #DailyWire kerfuffle and goes on to explain why #crowder is wrong -- and #louderwithcrowder might not be worth supporting in whatever form it takes next. https://linktr.ee/philelmore Please subscribe to the channel for occasionally, weekly news and political commentary!

Hasbro and Wizards of the Coast play themselves by dramatically overreaching. Officer Maegan Hall becomes her department's team-building exercise. Biden stole classified documents, but nobody will care because he's a Democrat. An ancient Mayan city has been uncovered by LIDAR. Lisa Marie Presley has died suddenly; so has Evel Knievel's son. Shakira is mad that her ex downgraded "from a Rolex to a Casio." A while bunch of adult stars booked a Travelodge in Newcastle, and now the chain is mad at them. Meanwhile, CNET is publishing crappy AI articles, Justin Roiland is facing felony charges that might endanger Rick and Morty, I don't want to have to buy a subscription to make my power drills work, and the media never tire of telling guys their junk is too small. All this and more are covered by me, Phil Elmore, in this episode of Surviving the News. https://linktr.ee/philelmore #PhilElmore

Phil Elmore takes a look at the hilarious failure of China's answer to Top Gun: Maverick this week in Surviving the News. Also, Scientology's leader is hiding from process servers, a murderer in Idaho has been apprehended, and parents keep making their 7- and 8-year-olds walk miles at a time by themselves. Meanwhile, Drudge went leftist a long time ago (and still nobody knows why), Andrew Tate has either been arrested or he hasn't (or he's been detained or he hasn't), but Greta Thunburg and a pizza box aren't actually responsibile... and our Transportation Secretary has been doing a terrible job, meaning nothing has changed. Phil talks about all this and more in this episode of Surviving the News. https://linktr.ee/philelmore

Are ski-masked men with golf clubs terrorizing the municipality of Morgantown? Chicago's "Walking Man" has died after being set on fire; is this viral image real... or is it slander? What the hell happened to PayPal? Chicago's bug-eyed, fish-faced mayor has been criticized because the police are using radio encyrption... Kamikoto knives MIGHT be a scam (but how do we define that?)... Kanye West is giving Mel Gibson a run for his money... and that Matt Damon-looking weirdo has left the Department of Energy. Phil Elmore covers all this and much more on this episode of Surviving the News with Phil Elmore. https://linktr.ee/philelmore

Does Dwayne Formerly The Rock Johnson use steroids? Did he ever? Joe Rogan has urged him to come clean. Anne Heche died very badly, it turns out, but at least she wasn't on drugs...? Meanwhile, a grandmother is suing police for using an errant "Find My iPhone" app to justify raiding her home, 2020 made us all a little nuts, garbage people rule the clown world we call America, and you should never, EVER dye your eyeballs. Phil Elmore covers all this and more in this episode of Surviving the News with Phil Elmore.

Phil Elmore explains why, sadly, we should not expect a "red wave" on election day today. Also, some lunatic has built a VR headset designed to kill you if you die in your game, because he's been watching too much Sword Art Online. Kathy Griffin is as classy as ever; Democrats don't support rights; and Howard Stern, who has only just left his house after two years, thinks you should vote Democrat (because he's a sad, broken, miserable person). All this and more in this election-day episode of Surviving the News with Phil Elmore. https://linktr.ee/philelmore

Biden wants to limit gun owners to only "8 rounds in a round." Elon Musk has finally started firing people at Twitter, which is good. The New York Post has fired a "rogue staffer" who was publishing racist headlines; it's hard not to find that funny. Generation Z are a bunch of whiny babies about everything, but what else is new? Canada's expanding assisted suicide policies are disturbing, to the say the least. Howard Stern is a pathetic coward, and so is "Stuttering John" -- but who's left to care? And is the Katy Perry robot going to be okay after repairs? All this and more on this episode of Surviving the News with Phil Elmore. https://linktr.ee/philelmore

James Corden gets banned from a restaurant for all of 5 minutes and, honestly, more of us should ban James Corden from our establishments. A Seattle Councilmember who wants to defund police also wants daily patrols of her property (because people keep hurling poo at it). G4 is finally dead (and it couldn't have happened to a nicer snaggletoothed host). Bubba Wallace might or might not have tried to murder other racers. Bill Murray is facing some disturbing allegations... and I think we can all agree we're sick of Hannah Gadsby and Neil deGrasse Tyson. All this and much more on this episode of Surviving the News with Phil Elmore. https://linktr.ee/philelmore

If you see something, say something! Phil Elmore explains why people who complain about "snitching" when it comes to dangerous people doing dangerous things are actually displaying a depraved indifference to human life. We also look at the crime of "jugging," cover a couple of horrible stabbings, and examine whether Julia Robinson should be "devastated" for being "body shamed" on Instagram after a gala awards event. Also, how sad has Howard Stern become? Check out all this and more in this episode. https://linktr.ee/philelmore

Who is king of the incels? You'll have to listen until the end for that. Also this episode, we talk about a controversial MA gun law, comically themed gangs in New York City (because apparently 1979's "The Warriors" has become reality), an Instagram model who thinks DMs are harassment, Hollywood's treatment of aging starlets, and the ongoing cheating drama in today's chess world. Plus, Swedish Democrats are being encouraged to vote in our midterms in the US, She-Hulk can't stop fan-baiting and gaslighting, and there's even some good news that's not covered in "speed-tape." Check out all this and more in this edition of Surviving the News. https://linktr.ee/philelmore

A COVID-wracked Phil Elmore describes just how many Democrats justified Shannon Brandt's cold-blooded, politically motivated murder of Cayler Ellingson, because Democrats are apparently fine with using violence to eliminate opposition to their side. Phil also looks at Lizzo's "defiling" of a 200-year-old crystal flute that belonged to James Madison, AOC's latest dimbulb moment, "white flight" in public schools, and the chess world's heated argument over who's cheating, who's not, and who's wearing vibrating personal appliances during the games. Also, check out "Be A Martialist" by Phil Elmore, available on Amazon in paperback and Kindle. https://linktr.ee/philelmore

Ron Desantis should arrest Javier Salazar. Why do Democrats want to put people in prison for disagreeing with them? Just how great is the danger of being murdered for being a Republican? How many friends are you prepared to lose over your political positions? Also, we fall down the rabbit hole of what happened to Kai the Hitchhiker and the crazed driver he hatcheted. Phil Elmore explores all these news stories and more in this episode of Surviving the News for 21 September, 2022.

Is refusing to put pronouns in your bio an act of bigotry? Is New York really releasing violent criminals without bail? Is Ezra Miller really the messiah? What the heck is GPU mining? Why do people keep electing Democrats when every Democrat-run city eventually becomes an apocalyptic hellscape? Why does anyone watch those hags on The View? Should you hunt down your stolen car on your own? And just how many decades need to pass after you murder someone before you can safely conclude you got away with it? Phil Elmore asks and answers these questions and more in this episode of Surviving the News.

If John Boyega was a white actor who said he only dated white actresses, would the Internet explode? Why are there so many crocodile stories in the news? What keeps killing Putin's cronies? A New York State trooper was charged with a felony for trying to swap out an old toy for a new one during a merchandise return... but why didn't the story say what the toy was? Why do laws only apply to little people and Republicans? And just how many tarantulas are motoring out there under their own power? Phil Elmore asks these questions and more in this episode.

Also, Was Nixon misunderstood? And finally, what was that noise from my kitchen? Phil Elmore answers these questions and more in this week's episode.

Phil Elmore reads hate mail submitted to "The Martial Arts Podcast with Phil Elmore" and to "Surviving the News." Hilarity ensues, one supposes. (This podcast is mirrored at The Martial Arts Podcast with Phil Elmore.)

Hilariously, Democrats have begun talking about Republicans "taking our freedoms away," when in reality, there is no freedom that Democrats support (at least not in the Bill of Rights). Phil Elmore explains in this special report.

Is Lizzo oppressed... or is she just unhappy with herself, and no amount of money can fix that? Rush Limbaugh used to talk about "Gorbasms," and honestly, did anyone think Mikhail Gorbachev was still alive (until he wasn't)? Will Antifa finally manage to murder someone, now that they're showing up with AR15s to public events? What did people think Russia would do when the rest of the world tried to "cancel" them over the war? Phil Elmore answers all these questions and more in this week's episode of Surviving the News. 9:49 - Stare into the black void that is your own soul and contemplate your life's failures.
