Host: Candace Owens

Overview of the Episode
In this freewheeling, solo episode, Candace Owens connects a web of conspiracies and personal investigations, arguing that psychological operations permeate society, particularly in the realms of celebrity, religion, and politics. She explores how various influential figures and organizations—ranging from Britney Spears's conservatorship to Calvary Chapel churches, and allegations of operatives within Turning Point USA (TPUSA)—intertwine through themes of control, infiltration, and psychological manipulation. Candace raises questions about faith-based institutions, recounts explosive private tips, and draws parallels between celebrity takedowns and broader societal control mechanisms.
Key Discussion Points & Insights
1. Converging Investigations and the Centrality of Psychological Operations
- Candace highlights the unexpected intersections in her recent investigations—linking the Chaos book, Brigitte Macron, Kanye “Yay” West, the Charlie Kirk assassination, Calvary Chapel, and Britney Spears.
- Core Thesis: “We are living inside of one big psychological operation. I am convinced. I've seen enough.” ([01:44])
- She asserts that even prominent faith leaders and influencers are not immune to infiltration by corrupt interests.
2. Calvary Chapel, Pastoral Power, and Scandals
- Muses on repeated scandals and patterns of abuse within the Calvary Chapel network, especially around Pastor Rob McCoy (Thousand Oaks, CA).
- Raises concerns about faith becoming “a military operation” with deep-rooted systemic issues: “Faith had somehow been infiltrated. Faith had become a military operation. Or perhaps from the 60s onward. That's what it's always been, right?” ([03:21])
3. Britney Spears, Conservatorship & Lou Taylor’s Influence
- Shares tips from listeners connecting Calvary Chapel to Britney Spears' conservatorship drama through business manager Lou Taylor, described as orchestrating faith-based financial controls.
- Guest clip from Brett Cooper exposing Lou Taylor’s history and ties with Spears’s family and finances:
- Britney’s income tithed (10%) to Taylor’s husband’s Calvary Chapel.
- Lou Taylor’s lack of financial experience but strong church ties. ([11:10])
- Britney, Courtney Love, and even Lindsay Lohan allegedly targeted for control via conservatorships.
- Candace’s conclusion: “So what we're describing here is effectively an infiltration… There can't be this many people that are having this experience and have this much scandal involving this church. This doesn't make sense to me.” ([13:04])
Memorable Quotes:
- “10% has to go to the church if they want God to bless them.” ([13:56])
- “There’s some sort of infiltration that seems to be happening with Calvary Chapels.” ([13:16])
4. The “Hostile Takeover” Pattern in Celebrity & Faith Spheres
- Details from an insider email alleging hostile, faith-washed corporate takeovers—“effectively a hostile takeover with a few other board members.”
- Repeats themes of spiritually-tinged control and financial manipulation.
5. Broader Web: MK Ultra, Hollywood, and Media Manipulation
- Parallel between CIA mind-control experiments (MK Ultra, Haight-Ashbury), celebrity meltdowns, and the “handler” phenomenon in fame.
- Discusses her own skepticism after close experiences with Kanye West and learning about psychological manipulation from Courtney Love.
- Key insight from Courtney Love to Candace: “At the core of all of this is ownership… their goal is to just successfully infiltrate.”
- Mechanisms: psych holds, financial destruction (lawfare), media smears, and “untimely deaths.”
- “If you cannot control those individuals, they will stage some sort of a hostile takeover of that brand or of that company or of that particular person.” ([25:57])
Notable Allegations & Names:
- Lou Taylor possibly tied to Mossad/CIA operations, Black Cube Security (Harvey Weinstein's security contractor), Ghislaine Maxwell, and Epstein (from an anonymized tip email) ([16:54])
- “You can trip onto their radar by making too much money… if they can't control you, they will try to destroy you.” ([29:26])
6. The Mormon Mafia, Zionist Inc., and Faith Infiltration Theories
- Reads lengthy insider text from Courtney Love about an alleged “Mormon mafia” atop Hollywood, and how every faith institution is vulnerable at the top.
- Stresses not all individuals are complicit, but institutional corruption is a constant threat.
7. Turning Point USA (TPUSA), Kirk, and Shift from Capitalism to Faith
- Raises red flags over heavy faith-based pivots at TPUSA, describing faith as a possible mechanism for control.
- Notes Christian Zionists’ attempts to silence inquiry, calling Christian faith leaders “a brood of vipers” (a reference to those defending controversial actions while ignoring real abuses).
8. Case Study: Charlie Kirk Assassination Investigation
- Presents new evidence and unexplained behaviors related to Charlie Kirk’s shooting:
- Suspicion of individuals (e.g., a man in a maroon shirt) moving around suspiciously and calmly during/after the event ([1:14:06])
- References to “the Bush” as a focal point of potential hidden activity.
- Requests public help identifying certain individuals or providing information ([1:17:06])
- Criticizes law enforcement and the media for stonewalling or shaping the narrative.
Memorable Exchange (with Charlie Kirk, timestamp ~1:07:36):
- Charlie Kirk: “When you’re in a foxhole, you want someone who is not gonna tell you that there’s no bullets being fired. You want just to say where the bullets are coming from.”
- Candace: “You definitely don’t want one that’s gonna run for the hills behind you. Yeah. And you’re alone. We’ve had those. We definitely know who our allies are, first and foremost.”
9. Ownership, Control, and the “Own Nothing” Agenda
- Warns against globalist agendas encouraging people not to own property; ties this to alleged elite schemes for population control and disempowerment.
- Draws on anecdotes involving Bill Ackman, the Malibu wildfires, and housing issues to amplify themes of dispossession.
10. Community Engagement and Listener Correspondence
- Reads several listener comments reinforcing her suspicions about Calvary Chapel, the faith infiltration of movements, and the broader web of elite conspiracies.

Tone & Language
Candace's delivery is urgent, conspiratorial, and unsparing. She uses bold language, humor, and skepticism, blending first-hand experience, research, and outsider tips. There’s a persistent “connect-the-dots” energy, with deep distrust of mainstream narratives—whether from media, church, or political organizations.
For Listeners/Newcomers
This episode lays out a packed tapestry of conspiracy, control, and infiltration at the intersection of faith, fame, and finance. Even absent full proof, Candace provides a dizzying array of threads—encouraging listeners to keep an open but critical mind, dig deeper, and not be cowed by those wielding power in the name of faith or public good.
The central takeaway: Be wary of those presenting as moral or spiritual authorities. Ask who benefits when narratives are tightly controlled, and take seriously all evidence of systemic abuse or corruption—no matter whose institution it tarnishes.
