Make America Healthy Again: Inside Maha Films with Jeff Hayes

Episode Overview

In this episode of Blunt Force Truth, hosts Mark Young and Matt Umbarger are joined by Dr. Bonner Cohen to unpack one of the most critical political and economic issues facing the country today: the high-stakes global race for Artificial Intelligence leadership and the massive infrastructure required to power it. 

The conversation bridges historical technological shifts—from the Industrial Revolution and railroads to Henry Ford's assembly line and the internet—with the rapid, unprecedented disruption brought on by AI. While the U.S. leads in software and algorithm development, the episode dives deep into the hardware, energy demands, and political resistance surrounding data centers.

The AI Arms Race, Data Centers, and the Future of America’s Grid

Episode Overview

In this episode of Blunt Force Truth, host Mark Young welcomes Texas political strategist and public policy advocate David Covey to discuss the pivotal political and economic battlegrounds shaping the nation. From tight Senate races in Texas and Michigan to the core philosophies dividing American voters, Mark and David break down what it takes for common-sense principles to prevail.

Grassroots Power & Economic Realities: Winning the Battle for America’s Future

On Today’s Episode –

Before diving into today's interview, hosts Mark Young and Matt Umbarger kick off the show by reacting to the breaking news surrounding Anthony Fauci’s congressional testimony. They break down the shocking revelations from his personal diary, his heavy reliance on the Fifth Amendment despite holding a presidential pardon, and how the mainstream narrative has finally collapsed into what Blunt Force Truth called out years ago regarding the Wuhan lab and gain-of-function funding.

Then, Mark welcomes an extraordinary guest who matches his own out-of-control, thrill-seeking spirit. Enter John Graham—a man who spent the first half of his life living by the bumper sticker "lucky to be alive." From hitchhiking into an active colonial war in Algeria at age 19 to completing the treacherous first direct descent of Denali's north wall, John thrived on adrenaline. As a U.S. Foreign Service officer, he purposefully sought out the world's most dangerous hotspots, eventually finding himself trapped in Hue during the 1972 North Vietnamese Easter Offensive, where he had to help establish martial law.

But a sudden, shattering realization in the middle of a warzone changed his trajectory forever. John sits down with Mark to share how he transitioned from a self-described "moral monster" chasing personal thrills to a global peacemaker who helped end apartheid in South Africa. Together, Mark and John tackle the complex crisis of modern masculinity, the critical need for a balance between strength and compassion, and how John’s global initiative, the Giraffe Heroes Project, is inspiring people around the world to stick their necks out for the common good.

On Today’s Episode –

In this episode of Blunt Force Truth, hosts Mark Young and Matt Umbarger sit down with Stephen Eugene Kuhn to discuss the critical importance of local politics in safeguarding American governance. Kuhn argues that while the public and media are hyper-focused on national politics in Washington, ideological groups are quietly reshaping the country by winning uncontested, low-cost local seats like school boards, city councils, and county prosecutor offices. Through his organization, Take America Back, Kuhn provides citizens with the training, tools, and strategy needed to step up, claim vacant positions, and establish a parallel infrastructure of local accountability.

On Today’s Episode –

In this episode of Blunt Force Truth, hosts Mark Young and Matt Umbarger break down the bizarre societal trends driving current headlines before diving deep into a fascinating, data-backed conversation with Dr. Chris DeArmit, a PhD in material science and a leading independent authority on environmental plastics.

First, Mark and Matt tackle the shocking financial anomalies of the modern world. They discuss the controversial "profit-from-murder" crowdfunding phenomenon surrounding the Carmelo Anthony case, juxtaposing public outrage over Elon Musk's potential trillionaire status against a society that willingly donates hundreds of thousands of dollars to the families of violent criminals. The hosts also take aim at Bernie Sanders’ new legislative push regarding AI taxation and the roots of societal envy.

Then, the conversation shifts to hard science as they welcome Dr. Chris DeArmit to separate environmental fact from media fiction. If you’ve been told that you eat a "credit card's worth of plastic a week" or that microplastics are causing a global health crisis, prepare to have your worldview challenged. Backed by an exhaustive review of over 6,000 un-funded, peer-reviewed scientific studies, Dr. DeArmit reveals the counterintuitive truths of life-cycle assessments. Discover why replacing plastic actually increases green house gases, why plastic degrades far faster than the public is led to believe, and how activist organizations use fear to trigger our ancient "lizard brains" for profit.

of industry experience and the world’s most cited independent authority

The Plastic Paradox: Debunking Environmental Myths - w/ Dr. Chris DeArmitt

On Today's Episode

In this wide-ranging, just-the-two-of-them conversation, host Mark Young and co-host Matt Umbarger take a step back from the day's political headlines to tackle something bigger: what the AI revolution actually means for everyday Americans — their jobs, their health, their wealth, and their purpose. The episode runs about 75 minutes and covers everything from Elon Musk's economic predictions to a 1970s mouse experiment that may explain where our society is headed.

"AI is not about to take your job. Someone who knows how to use AI is going to take your job." Mark's parting challenge to listeners: don't put your head in the sand. Figure out how AI intersects with your career, get in front of it, and — most importantly — own things.

On Today’s Episode –

Mark and Donna start off talking about President Trump’s latest victories, and the differences between The President and the Democrats. It becomes glaringly clear that The Left makes policy for policy’s sake, and how Trump makes things happen.

We jump into Earth Day – 1970 founded, celebrated in 90 countries around the world – lets look at some predictions. Mass starvation by 1980 and overpopulation. World headed for new Ice Age. Entire nations will be under water by rising tides. I mean come on, where is the accountability for the quacks making these predictions.

Donna then gets into HUD, and homes and how President Trump has been helping new home buyers.

Spiritual Warfare - w/ Ryan Bethea

Today’s show rundown: 

An interesting thing is going on...Trump has picked a lot of people running in the Senate / House. Mitch McConnell has not, he is not picking people the RNC will support. This feels like the RNC is NOT going to support any of the Trump picks. This means Trump may have to support these people, only he can support them because he is a major fundraiser. 

Chuck has been watching CNBD and MSNBC faithfully these past couple weeks, and according to those sources they are painting Trump as Hitler. They HAVE to indict Trump now, and our team believes they will. When they accused Trump of being a Russian asset, the FBI guy who did this, left the FBI - Tim Thibault - you know the guy who covered up the Hunter Biden laptop.

Student Debt - some trucker driving a truck at Walmart is having to pick up the cost of someone who went to an Ivy League school learning about some environmental whack job thing that is unemployable. This is the oldest trick in the book, the Left comes to your door, and says you got big pot holes out here, we will fix them if you vote for us. How is Biden getting the authority to do this student debt bill?
