Episode: New Charlie Kirk Video Evidence Could Change EVERYTHING
Date: September 25, 2025
Brief Overview
This episode focuses on explosively new video evidence in the Charlie Kirk murder investigation and dives into what the hosts and their guests perceive as the unraveling of the "official" FBI narrative that attributes the assassination to a "lone gunman." The episode also covers updates in the Epstein files release effort, controversial developments in sex education research, and an in-depth segment analyzing possible drone activity over the Kirk event. Guests include investigative journalist Ryan Mata, independent journalist Shannon Joy, and visual effects expert/social investigator Jason Goodman.
Key Discussion Points & Insights
1. Challenging the "Lone Gunman" Narrative in the Charlie Kirk Case
(Main segment begins ~02:30)
-
New Video Evidence Emerges: Investigative journalist Ryan Mata discusses newly surfaced high-definition footage focusing on the moment Charlie Kirk was shot, calling into question the FBI's version of events (“We continue to whittle away at the official FBI narrative that Tyler Robinson was a lone gunman...” – Clayton Morris, 02:30).
- The footage, taken from Charlie’s right side, is analyzed for anomalies.
- Timelines from multiple camera angles suggest discrepancies in the sequence of events.
-
Roof Activity and Eyewitness Testimony:
- The video shows a person running on the rooftop before and after the shooting, challenging the idea that the alleged shooter, Tyler Robinson, acted alone.
- Another video described by Candace Owens details a person in tactical gear, contradicting FBI claims of plainclothes attire.
- Testimony about the apparent calmness of bystanders in certain areas is contrasted against what would be expected after a gunshot (“There’s just someone casually walking through the parking lot… if somebody was on that roof and fired that shot, and you’re walking through that parking lot 10 seconds later, I don’t know if you would not have been like, you know, what the heck?” – Ryan Mata, 08:19).
-
Missing CCTV Footage:
- Mata and the hosts question why FBI-released surveillance video omits crucial minutes before and after the shooting, fueling speculation about the completeness and authenticity of the evidence.
2. The Explosive Device Theory and Microphone Analysis
(Segment expands ~12:03–18:58)
-
Analysis of the Fatal Shot:
- New close-up footage appears to show a “puff of air” or explosion at the site of the impact under Kirk's shirt, along with what might be his necklace being blown off.
- John Bray’s investigation is cited, positing that the wireless microphone clipped to Kirk’s shirt could have been weaponized with a small explosive device (“You see this huge puff of air blow up his shirt… it looked like a little cloud of smoke.” – Ryan Mata, 13:22).
-
Feasibility and Historical Precedent:
- The hypothesis of electronic equipment (like microphones or pagers) being weaponized is discussed, referencing historic examples (e.g., pagers in Lebanon).
- Both hosts express skepticism but note the technical plausibility of such an assassination method (“What you’re talking about here is born identity level… it’s almost too unbelievable.” – Natali Morris, 18:58).
3. Investigative and Legal Anomalies
(~11:09, 18:04, 21:19–22:12)
-
Chain of Custody and Evidence Tampering:
- There are unresolved questions about how the gun was brought onto the roof, lack of confession or recovered bullet, and the fate of security camera SD cards—reportedly handled by Turning Point employees, then turned over to the FBI.
-
Lack of Transparency and Media Interest:
- The guest panel notes the unusually subdued media presence at the alleged shooter’s family home and the abrupt halt of related local reporting.
- Comparisons are drawn between historic high-profile cases and the handling of the Kirk investigation.
4. Epstein Files – Congressional Moves and Implications
(~26:20–39:13, Shannon Joy segment begins 27:49)
-
Congressman Thomas Massie Claims He Has the Votes:
- Breaking news delivered that Rep. Massie claims enough backing to force a House vote on releasing Epstein’s files (see 00:44 and 27:56).
-
Bipartisan Panic and Public Pressure:
- Shannon Joy outlines bipartisan attempts to cover up Epstein’s client list, pinpointing both Republican and Democratic administrations’ roles.
- Heavy pressure from the public is credited as the main driver for the potential release.
- The files are described as potentially unifying for average Americans disturbed by institutional corruption (“…this is one of the only issues that could actually unite regular Democrats and Republican citizens across the country.” – Shannon Joy, 30:46).
-
Implications of File Release:
- Joy and the hosts speculate on massive fallout for both parties and question if truly unredacted files will reach the public.
- Discussion references the criminal prosecution of Epstein and Maxwell, with attention to the lack of action against the trafficked-to clients (“…the people who haven’t been convicted are the people they were trafficking the minors to, the johns and the clients.” – Shannon Joy, 29:22).
5. Controversial Academic Paper on Childhood Sexuality
(~43:30–49:50)
-
Journal Publishes Paper Redefining Childhood Sexuality:
- The hosts express alarm over a major academic sociology journal article that suggests childhood sexual innocence is a colonial construct and advocates teaching children to pursue sexual pleasure.
- The authors are identified as African university professors, but the hosts clarify this is not in line with mainstream African values.
- The “private parts” song by Namibian teacher is cited as the preferred model for children’s education (46:22).
-
Kinsey and the Origins of Modern Sex Education:
- The episode traces the academic push back to Alfred Kinsey, describing him as the ideological root of modern sex ed and trans ideology, and recounting disturbing personal details about his life and influence.
-
Societal Pushback:
- Despite the academic push, there are signs of public backlash, such as the dissolution of pro-pedophilia organization Prostasia (49:50).
6. Drone and ISR (Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance) Analysis at Kirk Murder Scene
(Jason Goodman segment begins ~55:35)
-
Drone Presence Over Event:
- Jason Goodman, a visual effects expert, recounts his analysis of live-stream and HD footage from the Charlie Kirk event, differentiating between birds, insects, and man-made drones (59:36–63:42).
- He asserts that 3–4 non-bird, non-insect objects behave like reconnaissance drones and recounts how a key witness’s livestream was likely disabled via a drone-based Bluetooth exploit (“I believe that type of Bluetooth exploit was launched from one of these drone aircraft to stop anyone from live streaming or recording the event.” – Jason Goodman, 65:40).
-
Broader Implications & Parallels with Butler (Trump Assassination Attempt):
- Goodman links drone activity to intelligence operations, indicating probable coordination of shooters and evidence suppression.
-
Electronic Warfare and Data Security:
- The detailed technical explanation suggests a deliberate effort to disrupt independent documentation by targeting electronic equipment (“…that file is something like eight times the data rate of what was uploaded to YouTube. That’s what allowed me to go in there and really magnify the files.” – Jason Goodman, 65:59).
Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments
-
On the questionable behavior of bystanders:
“If people duck immediately after and scream, we’ve heard the screams in the crowd. Why are the people walking behind that building, walking so casually?”
– Natali Morris, 06:47 -
On the core evidence anomaly:
“That man on the roof was sprinting literally before the people that were outside could even realize that Charlie’s been hit... That’s how we know exactly when that person was running across the roof.”
– Ryan Mata, 05:08 -
On the potential weaponization of the microphone:
“You see this huge puff of air blow up his shirt… it looked like a little cloud of smoke. There is something happening under that shirt.”
– Ryan Mata, 13:22 -
On the Epstein files’ significance:
“The traffickers have been convicted. The people who haven’t been convicted are the people they were trafficking the minors to. The johns and the clients. And that is where the American people are fed up with this.”
– Shannon Joy, 29:22 -
On the liberal sex education article:
“They say it’s wrong to protect children from sexual pleasure when adults warn kids about predators. You shouldn’t do that… because you are impinging on their sexual pleasure.”
– Natali Morris, 43:31
