Burning Bright and Brad Zerbo Dive into the Recent Israeli bombing of Iran with the context of the early Q drops in mind and game out theories of what may actually be happening. They also discus the optics juxtapose of The 250th birthday of the Army coupled with No Kings Rallies. They take a deeply strategic and philosophical exploration of what “The Plan” truly means. They unpack the core tenets of Q’s messaging and how its purpose goes far beyond exposing corruption, it’s about restoring spiritual and civic sovereignty. Brad and BB examine the psychological phases of red-pilling, the critical role of information warfare, and why awakening the masses must be a gradual, deliberate process. They explore how narrative control is being wrestled back from legacy media, how chaos can be weaponized for good, and why Trump’s role is best understood as a facilitator of a much bigger mission. With sharp insights, historical context, and unwavering faith in the arc of the awakening, this episode reframes “The Plan” not as passive salvation, but as an invitation to conscious engagement in a global spiritual war.

With passion, humor, and clarity, Alpha and B.B. urge listeners to ask the big questions: What is your mission? What phase of the battle are we in?

In a wide-ranging Easter edition of The Narrative, Burning Bright and Ashe in America fuse the metaphysical with the geopolitical, weaving together Lord of the Rings lore, narrative warfare, and the slow collapse of the Prussian-engineered global control system. Kicking off with Tolkien as a metaphor for the infowar, Ashe and Bright explore how myth, prophecy, and fiction offer deep parallels to real-world manipulation, and how narrative itself can serve as both weapon and shield. They dissect “chaos theory” not just as math, but as strategy, where Trump’s flood-the-zone approach and narrative traps are forcing the deep state into a perpetual retreat. They dive into the psychological energy war behind modern lawfare, immigration propaganda, and the use of NGOs and global finance to manufacture crises and control outcomes. Whether it’s Ms-13 deportation optics or David Becker’s flailing election panics, every move in this 3-act structure is designed to deprogram the public and restore sovereignty. From the invisible enemy of COVID to the lingering specter of Prussia, they examine how the heirs of a decaying system are failing to maintain its illusion of power. Meanwhile, Trump, they argue, is deploying a carefully orchestrated chaos, not to destabilize, but to expose and dismantle the system’s predictive power. With powerful insights into AI, narrative archetypes, consent-based governance, and what it really means to be on a watchlist, this episode is a masterclass in narrative engineering. Part Tolkien, part CIA breakdown, part spiritual reset...this one’s got it all. And next week, they promise to take it even further with a deep dive into morality narratives.
