Our Big Dumb Mouth OBDM1283 - Trump’s Trade War & the Stone Soldiers of Siberia | Wrestling with Jesus
00:00:00 - The hosts speculate on Joe’s new job, possibly involving out-of-state travel and "cracking skulls" as a project manager. They revisit a previous caller who shared theories on Nazis and Hitler hiding in South America, linking it to classic Elvis sightings and mysticism.
📉 Trump’s Tariffs & Economic Apocalypse00:10:00 - Trump announces reciprocal tariffs, presented humorously with a Jeff Goldblum voiceover. The hosts debate potential effects on the global economy and discuss media reactions to Trump's move. They highlight how uncertainty affects the markets more than the policy itself.
🏛️ Democrats Once Loved Tariffs?00:20:00 - Vintage clips of Pelosi, Bernie Sanders, and Chuck Schumer reveal their past support for tariffs and immigration control. The hosts note the surprising ideological switch in party lines, suggesting globalism and neocon influence reshaped Democratic policies over decades.
😤 Revenge Politics & Deindustrialization Fallout00:30:00 - The show explores how working-class Americans might support tariffs not out of logic, but revenge for years of economic neglect. They analyze how service economies replaced manufacturing and predict long-term benefits if Trump’s tariff plans stick.
🛒 Groceries, Tariffs & Domestic Avocados00:40:00 - A Good Morning America segment forecasts grocery price hikes on imports like olive oil and alcohol, but minor effects on staples like meat and produce. Domestic agriculture (like California avocados) may actually benefit. RFK Jr. is mentioned for possible food regulation reforms.
🌍 Japan Megaquake & Plasma Alien Revenge00:50:00 - A megaquake warning is issued for Japan. The show shifts to a CIA document claiming aliens turned Soviet soldiers into stone after a UFO shoot-down. The bizarre tale includes aliens fusing into a plasma ball—regurgitated from a 2017 viral news cycle.
🛸 UFO Plasma Balls, Remote Viewing, & Roswell Parallels01:00:00 - More details on the alien “revenge” incident: a plasma explosion turns soldiers to limestone. Hosts discuss parallels to Roswell, predator-like self-destruction, and the enduring image of the "Grays" in pop culture. Roger Moore's 90s UFO doc is mentioned.
👽 Star Trek First Contact Day & Nazi Aliens?!01:10:00 - It's First Contact Day (April 5), a Star Trek holiday. The show jokes about aliens giving Nazi salutes, drawing links to sci-fi culture and government conspiracies. A potential moon-collision asteroid story also raises mock concern over NASA’s reassurances.
🤘 Danzig’s Nazi Shirt, Alien Symbolism, & Concert Merch01:20:00 - Glenn Danzig sells a shirt featuring what appears to be a Nazi-era Black Sun symbol. The hosts analyze rising concert merch prices, Nazi symbolism in metal culture, and debate whether it's intentional or just edgy ignorance.
📞 Listener Calls: Bigfoot Autism, Cat Dreams, Protein Beer01:30:00 - Callers weigh in: a young fan shares local Nebraska Bigfoot stories (including theories that Bigfoot may be autistic), another talks about protein in beer. The segment ends with talk of adding bugs to food for hidden protein and the return of Joe, who missed his beer report cue.
⛪ Wrestling Church & Lemonade Stand Assault01:40:00 – A church in England merges wrestling with worship, hosting body-slamming sermons to attract new believers. The hosts find it weird but oddly appealing. They then pivot to a bizarre news story about a Florida man arrested for assaulting kids at a lemonade stand after being denied a free refill.
🌍 Inflatable Mars Balloon Escapes & Geoengineering Ban01:50:00 – An art installation of inflatable planets goes rogue as a Mars balloon escapes and rolls into traffic near the Kennedy Center.

The segment ends with news that Florida passed a bill to ban weather modification (like cloud seeding), a nod to ongoing chemtrail conspiracy theories.
