Robbie Martin is joined by Max aka Compostghoul, a researcher and Media Roots collaborator who has been working with Robbie to turn previous Media Roots anthrax investigative podcasts into long form written pieces. They start by giving their opinions about what was good and bad about the new Netflix documentary: Anthrax, In the Shadow of 9/11. Halfway through the podcast Robbie and Max emphasize how the recently unearthed abandoned St Petersburg hoax letters thread alone undermines the entire FBI case about Bruce Ivins, possibly the strongest evidence point at the current moment that proves that the anthrax attacks must have been the work of at least 2 individuals, but probably more. In the last third Robbie throws out darker possibilities for suspects, including the liklihood that whoever conducted the 2001 anthrax attacks had foreknowledge of the 9/11 attacks and was planning the anthrax attack before 9/11 actually occured.
Robbie mentions several crucial previous Media Roots works on the 2001 anthrax attacks throughout the podcast, please see all the links below:

Episode 1: A Brief History of Hallucinogens, MK-Ultra, the CIA, LSD, Leary & the Psychedelic Sixties / Seventies
Robbie and Abby Martin start the series by exploring the Western world's initiation into psychedelics: the CIA buying up the world's supply of LSD to administer MK-Ultra's dark experimentation against unwitting subjects as well as thousands of volunteers through research organizations and front groups at elite universities which spawned Silicon Valley. They discuss the evolution of main characters like Timothy Leary and how the San Francisco Bay Area became a hotbed of psychedelic renaissance through the hippie movement, from the Grateful Dead to Ken Kesey. Figures like John Lilly were attempting to sync consciousness with dolphins using hallucinogenic drugs and performance art by the likes of Alex Grey and others became representative of the era. Nixon's 'War on Drugs' started the reactionary wave of psychedelic criminalization.

Robbie Martin continues his series on the George W Bush smallpox bioterror scare, this time laying out the series of events and shining a light on the hyperbolic media coverage that culminated with the official Whitehouse smallpox vaccination rollout plan. A plan which creepily paralelled the buildup to the US invasion of Iraq. When the MSM covered smallpox bioterrorism from 2002-2003, Iraq becomes an increasingly mentioned potential suspect for unleashing this deadly plague. Why do virtually no Americans remember this additional hysterical fear mongering campaign about smallpox from Bush & Cheney? Robbie tries to figure out the answers as he takes you further down the labyrinthine memory hole of the post-9/11 era.

In the second edition, Abby and Robbie dive deeper into what could be behind the new weaponized rhetoric of the right calling gay teachers and their political enemies 'groomers'. They discuss the disturbing trend of anti-LGBTQ legislation sweeping the country and what think tanks are behind the bills. As they discuss the organizations fueling this artificial culture war, strange associations emerge like Uyghur baseball teams, the 'Broken Windows Theory' and even the CIA. They wrap by discussing the history of LGBTQ repression in the US.

Robbie Martin brings onto the podcast Gumby, a meticulous and unique researcher who specializes in the subject of what the US government calls "Biodefense". Recently Putin and other members of the Russian government have accused the US government of doing dangerous experiments and potentially making biological weapos in several Pentagon Defense Threat Reduction Agency sponsored labs in Ukraine. Robbie and Gumby take a close look at these accusations and the political upheaval and media reactions they have caused in the first half of the podcast. In the second half they break down which deadly pathogens or unmistakable biological weapons the US actually does experiment on in Ukrainian labs as well as examining the multitude of other DTRA sponsored labs in several other countries that used to be part of the Soviet Union like Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan and Armenia.

Part 4 of the Media Roots Radio Smallpox Bioterror Hoax miniseries starts just 4 months before the launch of the Iraq war. In this episode Robbie lays out a litany of exclusively pulled TV archive clips, official US documents and official statements in late 2002 and early 2003 which make a strong case for the ‘pre-event’ Smallpox vaccination program playing a crucial (but memory-holed) role in the propaganda talking points deployed by the Bush administration for the war. Colin Powell mentions smallpox in his infamous UN speech about Iraq’s alleged ‘mobile biological weapons labs' and the fear became so intense domestically that 40% of Americans polled at the time believed that a smallpox bioterrorism attack was ‘likely’.

Robbie Martin goes solo on the last episode of February 2022. Starting off Robbie talks about the under-reported warning about how a war in Ukraine might cause an accidental release of 'deadly pathogens' at (11) US DOD linked biological labs there.

Robbie Martin of Media Roots Radio brings on Brace Belden to discuss TrueAnon's on the ground coverage of the now wrapping up Ghislaine Maxwell trial in Manhattan district federal court. She was charged with what could essentially be described as sex trafficking and grooming underage girls for Jeffrey Epstein. Many aspects of the trial are discussed as is Ghislaine's strange past including her new age vibes project TerraMar. Brace and Robbie also go into the history of Ghislaine's father Robert Maxwell and how his news outlets at the behest of himself became part of (at the very least) an information war to destroy and bury whistleblower Mordechai Vanunu, who attempted to share with the world the proof of the Israeli nuclear weapons program.

Robbie Martin continues the Amerithrax 20th anniversary series ( sort of ) with a deep-dive into the origins of the motherload of catastrophic imaginary terrorism, smallpox bioterrorism. It is common to hear people remark that the 2001 anthrax attacks have been 'memory-holed' in the public consciousness, if that's the case then the Bush-era smallpox program is a memory-hole within a memory-hole. Starting with the early history of Smallpox, variolation and the very first vaccines, Robbie tells the story of how a disease that was eventually eradicated globally became a powerful fearmongering tool that shaped the Clinton, Bush and Covid-19 eras. After George W Bush got elected and the PNAC dream came true, of not just one but two 'catalyzing' events ( anthrax & 9/11 ), the idea of innoculating the entire American public via smallpox vaccination became one of the primary Bush policy postures simultaneously with the drive towards the Iraq war.

Robbie Martin goes solo again, this time covering a wide range of current topics like the Biden administration launching an investigation into CIA agents getting brain damage from alleged 'energy pulse' weapons, a recent poll showing that over 50% of Americans approve of sending US troops to counter a Chinese attack on Taiwan and how Peter Thiel's previous stealth bank-rolling and signal boosting of faux populist and psuedo libertarian figures has now gone into a new stage of mask-off out in the daylight. One example of this increasing Thiel power coup is Blake Masters, COO of Thiel Capital, who is currently running for US Senate and employing borderline fascist campaign rhetoric in the process.

In this unlocked episode of Media Roots Radio Robbie Martin continues his investigation into the 2001 anthrax attacks with the densest and most complex episode yet. Instead of focusing on the forensic details and the crime itself like in previous episodes Robbie lays out the history of the Enquirer Tabloid, it’s founder, CIA alumni, mob connected creep, Generoso Pope Jr. and evidence of a potential coverup of the first anthrax crime scene in Florida and larger ‘catch and kill’ operation involving the collaboration of American Media Inc CEO David Pecker, BioOne founder Rudy Giuliani, John Mason of Sabre Technical Services, David Jungers of Marcor Remediation, sketchy Florida investor David Rustine of Crown Properties & scammy Applied Bank founder Rocco Abessinio. This network of individuals and companies involved in this potential coverup of the 2001 anthrax attacks in Florida desperately needs further examination and Media Roots Radio encourages listeners to dig deeper and follow up on some of these potential suspects to bring new information to light.

Robbie Martin returns for another Amerithrax deep dive episode while the 20th Anniversary of the attacks continues. This time the focus is on which parts of the anthrax murders that were omitted from the FBI investigation in order to create the appearance that Bruce Ivins was guilty (who committed suicide in 2008 before the FBI could bring charges to him). Most of the epiode focuses on key omisssions from the DOJ executive Amerithrax summary from 2010 like the AMI building crime scene in Florida, the murder of photo-editor Robert Stevens and the still completely mysterious case of the only NY anthrax fatality, Manhattan hospital worker Kathy Nguyen. These omisssions along with the St Petersburg 'hoax' letters' give the false appearance that a single person using only anthrax laced letters as a murder weapon comitted the crime when the evidence (and FBI statements from 2003 and before) actually shows that the attacks were likely conducted by at least two people, using more than just letters to infect and kill their victims.

Robbie Martin discusses the long memory-holed 2001 anthrax attacks on the 20th anniversary of the first murder, the death of American Media Inc employee Robert Stevens in Boca Raton, Florida (which took place on October 5th, 2001). 4 more would eventually die from inhalation anthrax after envelopes were sent through the US postal service containing terroristic letters attempting to appear Islamic ( 'ALLAH IS GREAT' ) & high-grade weaponized anthrax spores. But what happened with all of those 'hoax' letters that contained fake anthrax? Who were those sent to? Were all these hoax attacks unrelated to the actual murders? Maybe not, as 'hoax' letters were sent from St. Petersburg Florida with eerie and confusing similarities to the real anthrax letters sent by the named anthrax killer. Listen closely as Robbie breaks down the timeline of why these 'hoax' letters and their implications could potentially turn the entire FBI Amerithrax case against Bruce Ivins upside-down.
Note: The original description & content for this podcast incorrectly referred to 3 hoax anthrax letters sent from St Petersburg. There were actually 4 known hoax letters sent from St Petersburg, Florida: 2 postmarked September 20th 2001 delivered to Tom Brokaw of NBC News & the NY Post then 2 postmarked October 5th 2001 delivered to Judith Miller of the NY Times & Howard Troxler of the St Petersburg Times.

20 years after the Civl War, save for a few rare instances of integration, Freemasonry across the country was still segregated into seperate black Prince Hall Lodges and causasian Blue Lodges. There was more recognition of black Prince Hall Freemasonry by the European grand lodges than there was from any white official Masonic body in the United States at this time. Particularly in the South, black Freemasons were not only up against an erasure of their Masonic charter by Southern white Masons but faced openly racist dehumanizing public deunciations from the highest white Masonic authorities in Mississipi and Missouri.
Some Prince Hall Freemasons expressed their abolitionist views using militant rhetoric pre-Civil War and others like Moses Dickson would claim he led an army of hudreds of thousands of slaves trained in secret to rise up against all slave owners. Organizations that were Freemasonic in nature but were paralell to Prince Hall like the International Order of Twelve Knights of Tabor had now grown to 100,000 members and other organizations like the Moorish Science Temple of America were about to emerge;
This is part of a larger in-depth history podcast series that covers the span of American Freemasonry and all of its associated occult and fraternal organizations from 1776 - 1900.

Robbie Martin using original Bohemian Grove yearly annals and other sources tells the story of how the Cremation of Care ceremony came to be and how they performed it for nearly 30 years before the arrival of the iconic giant owl statue. The first time the Cremation of Care was performed with a statue wasn't of an owl, it was performed in front of a 75 foot tall statue of Buddha while the grove members dressed in red and white kimonos. Other activities are alluded to in their early documents like procuring prostitutes, smoking marijuana and bathing together naked. The early 1890s would mark the beginning of top level US government officials becoming a normal sight at Bohemian Grove campouts.
The simulated Cremation of Care ceremony in the intro [recreated by Robbie Martin] includes pieces from the following authentic original Bohemian Grove compositions from 'The Sounds of Bohemia' :
Beauty's Vassals - Performed by the No Name Quartet and composed by Charles Hart recorded 1987. This more jovial vocal song was sometimes performed directly before Cremation of Care would begin.
Barcarole - Performed by the Owl Club Orchestra and composed by Charles Hart recorded 1930. This song was specifically composed to accompany the transportation of the human effigy (Care) to the funeral pyre (a tradition that became transportation by boat)

September 11th 20th Anniversary Part 1 of 2: The Return of the 9/11 Conspiracy Left, Restrategizing & Turning Over More Stones
Abby and Robbie Martin talk to independent researcher Gumby for a two-part 9/11 20 year anniversary Media Roots Radio special. In light of the Spike Lee controversy about his 9/11 HBO series, they discuss the history of all the prominent officials and Hollywood celebrities that spoke out and questioned the official story, and how that legacy has been whitewashed today. After taking listeners through how the early 9/11 truth movement reached a critical mass within anti-George W Bush liberalism, they reflect how activists could better strategize in lieu of the new opening of discussion around the attacks in 2021. In Part 2, all the media hype surrounding the 20th anniversary is discussed as is the inevitable backlash that came for 9/11 truthers within leftism itself.

Senator Mike Gravel passed away on June 26, 2021 at the age of 91. Leaving an amazing political career behind him, Robbie and Abby decided to reflect on his true legacy, one that has been white washed and cherry picked even in the recent newspaper obituaries. A legacy that includes sticking his neck out on taboo issues like advocating for a new 9/11 investigation and pushing legislation encouraging cooperation with the formerly People’s Republic of China. Gravel has been a huge inspiration to Media Roots since the beginning, leaving a lasting imprint on both Abby and Robbie since they watched him on the presidential debate stage vs Barack Obama in 2008. Because of this admiration, Robbie and Abby felt lucky they got Senator Gravel on Media Roots Radio twice as a guest over the years.
Early internet independent journalists Eric and Mike Jackman, also known as the Jackman brothers, had an opportunity to meet Gravel during the 2008 primary, as they happened to live in New Hampshire, a prime spot for visiting campaigning candidates during the presidential primary season. While Gravel was campaigning there, Eric landed a job working for the Senator as his driver. The Jackman Bros tell many hilarious and fascinating anecdotes from their long car rides with the Senator as well as much more.
There’s nothing complicated about today’s episode, this is a celebration of the life and career of Senator Mike Gravel featuring Robbie Martin, Abby Martin, Mike Jackman and Eric Jackman.

Robbie and Abby Martin examine why the Pentagon and Mainstream Media (CNN, 60 minutes, NYTimes) are taking the phenomenon of UFO sightings and theories into the realm of 'acceptable' dialog among the American public. While there is most definitely a psychological warfare component of this new wave of UFO media coverage, one cannot completely write-off the multitude of believable UFO sightings and abduction stories. The only difference now is that the US military is allowing officials to openly speak about their own sightings to the media and encouraging pilots and soldiers to report their encounters. The episode starts with a full chronological breakdown of how this new wave of media coverage materialized.

Robbie brings on researcher gumby4christ for a sequel of sorts to the previous Media Roots Radio episode 'The Oswald Institute of Virology, COVID-19 Origins & US Military Biowarfare'. Just when it seemed like the Covid 'lab-leak' talk had gone away it comes back with a vengeance. A series of incriminating e-mail exchanges got dumped revealing 'Gain of Function' research funded by the US government at the Wuhan BSL-4 lab and Anthony Fauci's full awareness of it. This eventually led to Fauci conceding that Covid-19 could have leaked from a lab and Jon Stewart saying on Late Night with Stephen Colbert that it was a pandemic 'created by scientists'. Robbie & Gumby break down every conceivable angle of what could actually be going on here, from the idea of a long con Wuhan lab sting operation as a vehicle for a geopolitical strategy against China to how the propaganda campaign resembles WMDs in Iraq but could be employing reverse psychology ('the fact checker elites lost!'). The podcast concludes with Gumby revealing the contents of the Ft. Detrick USAMRIID documents he obtained via a FOIA.

Robbie Martin brings on prolific foreign policy journalist/writer Dave DeCamp of Antiwar.com again to talk about the increasing hysteria and fear Americans are exhibiting over China and how there is seemingly bipartisan support in DC and among the public for an aggressive stance against China. Dave and Robbie then move on to the different camps of Libertarianism, first the camp that espouses Zionist talking points, neocon rhetoric on China and wants to work with the MAGA-right and the other camp that still resists all forms of US imperialism. The discussion concludes with an assessment of where things are at with US/Russia relations in the Biden-era.

Instead of just becoming appendant bodies of Masonry, the popularity and the mystique of these new Rosicrucian societies [ S.R.I.A. , S.R.I.C.F. , F.R.C. ] and Theosophical groups start to eclipse those of Freemasonry itself.

Synopsis: Robbie Martin continues the Media Roots Radio original series, the Freemasonic History of the United States with the golden age of fraternalism and how it was also the golden age of now famous Freemason, Albert Pike. During the post civil war 1870s Pike completed some of his most important works, his re-written Scottish Rite 4th-32nd degree rituals known as his Magnum Opus, his most famous book, Morals & Dogma and his most in-depth work, Indo Aryan Deities And Worship, As Contained In The Rig Veda. But was Albert Pike also a foundational member and 'chief operation officer' of the Ku Klux Klan during their reign of terror simultaneously with his most productive writing and research period? Was Albert Pike fascinated by the Rig Veda because of his 'Aryan heritage' or was it because it may have held clues to the real secret to Freemasonry itself, a mysterious hallucinogenic intoxicant? Robbie takes us through all these questions and more on Aryan Deities, the Liberty Cap & the Cubicle Ashlar to Infinity, the Freemasonic History of the United States Part 6.
Robbie Martin is joined once again by deep politics researcher gumby4christ to discuss the mysterious origins of COVID-19 and to parse through the torrent of anti-China propaganda seeping it's way into the US media ecosystem on all sides.
As a growing consensus builds around the possibility of COVID-19 being man-made/lab-created Robbie and gumby4christ examine why the Wuhan Institute of Virology was scapegoated as the culprit while neocon think-tanks and other nefarious political actors (including from the 'intellectual dark web') omitted the involvement of white Americans with ties to the US bioweapons industry when rushing to characterize this possible scenario as a Chinese military bio-weapons release.

To get access to the full series, become a Patreon subscriber of Media Roots Radio for as little as $5 a month or per creation https://www.patreon.com/mediarootsradio.
Full episode synopsis: Robbie Martin continues the Freemasonic History of the United States with Part 5 starting with speculation on Abraham Lincoln's potential Freemasonry. Robbie then moves onto the Civil War and how Albert Pike became a Confederate General tasked with recruiting the '5 Civilized Tribes' of Native Americans to the Confederate side in the war. Pike ended up commanding over 1,000 Native American soldiers in the battle of Pea Ridge resulting in great controversy that would haunt him for the rest of his life. Before the war was over a secret society Freemasonic inspired group called the Knights of the Golden Circle conspired to kidnap and assassinate Abraham Lincoln but the actual assassination itself was carried out by KGC member John Wilkes Booth. In an act of Masonic solidarity Albert Pike ends up being redeemed after the war by fellow Scottish Rite Freemason, President Andrew Johnson. The Knights of the Golden circle eventually evolved into what we know now today as the Ku Klux Klan.
Abby and Robbie Martin talk to Nolan Higdon, teacher of history and media studies and the author of two books, "The Anatomy of Fake News: A Critical News Education," and "United States of Distraction: Media Manipulation in Post-Truth America" about the American legacy of fake news and how we can become media literate in todays polarized post-truth era.

Starting with the legend of King Solomon and Solomon's Temple and how it serves as the foundation of Freemasonic occultism, Robbie then examines how the Enlightenment era and Royal Society of London scientists flirted with the occult and alchemy, and how Isaac Newton became obsessed with decoding the secrets of King Solomon's Temple. Freemason influence over the Sons of Liberty and foundational figures in the Revolutionary war like Benjamin Franklin and George Washington are discussed.

The full episode: The Grand Obelisk, a Golden Age of Fraternalism & the 33rd Degree is available now on our Patreon page https://www.patreon.com/mediarootsradio
Description: Description: Robbie starts episode 4 of his ongoing United States Masonic History series with the Mexican-American war and delves into Albert Pike's role in the invasion of Mexico. Freemasonry was still popular but not as public during this time period except for one major architectural undertaking in Washington, DC, the Washington monument, designed by architect Robert Mills in the style of an Egyptian obelisk. Instead of being carved out of a single stone like ancient obelisks were, this obelisk was to be 5x larger, standing at 555 feet tall, the tallest structure in the world made from giant stone blocks, an obelisk of classic masonry. After an infamous duel between Albert Pike and Colonel Roane, Pike then decides to devote the rest of his studies and energy towards Freemasonry. Being deeply attracted to and intrigued by it's secrets, Albert Pike ascends to the 32nd degree of the Scottish Rite in only 3 years and then got the idea that it was his mission to not just re-write the entire 4th-32nd degree rituals but to re-invent Freemasonry itself.
Following Robbie Martin's 2-part podcast QAnon breakdown on Media Roots Radio, the anonymous (self- proclaimed) 'government insider', Q continued to post on the 8kun message board but appeared to be running out of steam, lacking the creativity and spark it once had. Trump has lost the election and gone into hiding and interestingly the anonymous poster known as Q decided to do the same, only posting 3 times total in the month of November. Unfortunately for the sitting president, Q now seemingly describes Trump as 'post-POTUS'. But what happens if or when Q stops posting? Has the QAnon movement become stronger than the identity itself? What the hell does this all mean? Robbie attempts to decipher all this from @ 01:16:00 onward. The co-founder of 8chan, Fredrick Brennan joins Robbie at the beginning of the episode to discuss his political trajectory and how he was intimately close to the technical backend of the 8chan website enough to have a plausible theory on who may be behind Q. Is it possible Jim and Ron Watkins, the father/son duo and owners of 8kun are currently posing as Q? Take another journey with Media Roots Radio into QAnon land to find out answers to these bizarre questions and more....

Part 3 Synopsis:
" Robbie Martin continues the Freemasonic History of the United States starting with the unintended occult allure amplifying consequences of the Anti-Masonic movement and how the Anti-Masonic convention pledge to expose as many documents as they possibly could might have actually backfired on their intent. The rise and fall of Joseph Smith Jr. the founder of Mormonism is of particular focus in this episode. Joseph Smith was influenced heavily both by Anti-Masonry and Freemasonry and the goal of not only restoring Christianity but also Freemasonry to it's alleged ancient roots. Frontier era heroes like Sam Houston, Davy Crockett and Jim Bowie are revealed as practicing Freemasons who ended up facing off with other well known Freemasons on the Mexican side. Famous Slave rebellions and revolutionary abolitionists also have interesting connections to Freemasonry and lunar events. Robbie then speculates about the possibility of another Masonic secret, that may have informed Smith's visions, the discovery and ritual use of psychedelic drugs. "

Robbie Martin is joined by Abby Martin on the 19th anniversary of September 11th, 2001, and while this recording was made remotely, both live in California and have been experiencing what can only be described as Mordor-like wildfires, smoke and ash falling from the skies. They catch up on where the left is at in terms of questioning the Bush administration's narrative of the 9/11 attacks, examine the con-artistry of Trump's meaningless anti military industrial complex rhetoric to capture headlines and bait the Democratic establishment to attack him from the right, and Robbie explains why he thinks the Jim Watkins=Q theory is a soothing narrative but ultimately one that distracts away from how dangerous it is.

In the last third, Robbie brings up the 'Boogaloo Boys' shooting death of an officer in Oakland, which was initially blamed on Antifa but was actually done by an active duty US air-force sergeant inspired by a troll right-wing group on 4chan that wants to start a civil war.

Lovecraft still has so much staying power today. Leslie also addresses Lovecraft's 'virulent' racist views but explains how those are not necessarily central to his actual horror writings.

Robbie Martin interviews Peter Andrey Smith about his trip to Tasmania investigating opium poppy farmers who supply the licit aka legal pharmaceutical opioid market in the United States. This DEA sanctioned legal opium market is largely dominated by Johnson & Johnson, using a subsidiary company Tasmanian Alkaloids, that produces large quantities of opium poppies (over 80% of the market) potent in thebane, an important ingredient for the manufacturing of Oxycontin. Johnson & Johnson was recently ordered to pay over $500,000,000 in fines by a judge in an unprecedented ruling for its role in contributing to the opioid epidemic.

17 years ago, less than one month after the horrific attacks on September 11, 2001, weaponized anthrax was sent through the mail in a biological attack that stunned an already traumatized nation. The first American died from anthrax infection on October 5th. During the weeks that followed, letters sent through the US postal system containing anthrax were targeted at US media organizations and sitting US senators. In the end, five people were left dead--two US postal workers, a Florida photojournalist, a New York city hospital worker and a 95 year old widow in Connecticut. Over 22 people were hospitalized from exposure. Many dozens more tested positive for anthrax in the months that followed.
It was a one-two punch of guttural horror. Americans were already glued to their television sets, watching 24/7 coverage of planes exploding and iconic skyscrapers crumbling. Over and over, we watched thousands perish. But terrorism was still abstract to those removed from the tragedy. The anthrax attacks changed that, localizing the fear of terrorism to everyone––even your grandma living in the suburbs of Connecticut. Anyone could get a letter. Anyone could be the next target.
With the remains of the World Trade Center still smoldering, the Bush administration made several attempts to connect Saddam Hussein to 9/11. The anthrax attacks gave them the perfect opportunity to piggyback ‘weapons of mass destruction’ fears on a very real bioweapons attack. They used willing reporters as instruments to tie nonexistent bentonite from the anthrax letters to Saddam’s nonexistent weapons cache. Journalist stenographers in DC were the conduit for government propaganda, hyping up the threat of terrorism. The anthrax attacks justified the fear-mongering that 9/11 was not simply a one-off incident, and that terrorism was America’s new normal.
Not since the Zodiac killer letters had Americans been subjected to such strange visual threats like the block text in short lines that the anthrax letters read: “ARE YOU AFRAID? YOU DIE NEXT.. DEATH TO AMERICA, DEATH TO ISRAEL. ALLAH IS GREAT.”
The letters were almost a parody of an islamic terrorist. But who was actually behind the attack? Who had the expertise necessary to secretly manufacture and then distribute weaponized anthrax spores? Who had the motive?
In this special episode of Media Roots Radio, after conducting extensive research from public documents, tv news archives, wire stories, first hand interviews and eye witness accounts, myself and Robbie Martin will tell the story of the 2001 anthrax attacks, what preceded them, what happened during the investigation and how this seemingly small event was instrumental in selling the Iraq war, shaping the reality tunnel we live in now. In Part 1 of our investigation, we start with a chronology of the lead up to the attacks and a blow by blow account of how they unfolded.

Robbie Martin speaks to Kelly Jones the ex-wife of Alex Jones about her ongoing custody battle and experience being under a continual bombardment of vexatious litigation on behalf of her ex husband. Kelly has already been granted primary custody by a Texas court yet the judge has left her children with Alex. They also speak at length about how Infowars transformed over the years from being a non-partisan, civil liberties focused, anti-militarized police platform into a pro-Trump, pro-police, pro-fascism hyper partisan anti-left megaphone. Kelly also walks through when the big 'shift' occurred (which happened to be around the same time as their divorce) when shadowy figures like Roger Stone, Matt Drudge and supplement manufactures started circling around Alex as he descended deeper into alcoholism and uncontrollable anger.

National Security Cinema: This is a book about secrecy, militarism, manipulation, and censorship at the heart of the world’s leading democracy—and about those who try to fight them. Using thousands of pages of documents acquired through the Freedom of Information Act National Security Cinema exclusively reveals that the national security state—led by the CIA and Pentagon—has worked on more than eight-hundred Hollywood films and over a thousand network television shows. The latest scholarship has underestimated the size of this operation, in part because the government has gone to considerable lengths to prevent data emerging, especially in the 21st Century, as the practice of government-Hollywood cooperation has escalated and become more aggressive. National Security Cinema reveals for the first time specific script changes made by the government for political reasons on dozens of blockbusting films and franchises like Transformers, Avatar, Meet the Parents, and The Terminator. These forces have suppressed important narratives about: CIA drug trafficking; illegal arms sales; military creation of bio-weapons; the interaction of private armies and oil companies; government treatment of minorities; torture; coups; assassinations, and the failure to prevent 9/11.
Dr. Matthew is a Teaching Fellow at the University of Bath in England. His doctoral thesis applied Ed Herman and Noam Chomsky’s Propaganda Model to the contemporary Hollywood film industry. His first book, Reel Power: Hollywood Cinema and American Supremacy, was published by Pluto Press in 2010 and has since been translated into Chinese. In 2014, Dr. Alford produced a documentary film of his research, The Writer with No Hands, which premiered at Hot Docs in Toronto and won the Tablet of Honor at the Ammar Popular Film Festival in Tehran.
Tom Secker is a private researcher who runs spyculture.com— the world’s premier online archive about government involvement in the entertainment industry. He has used the Freedom of Information Act to obtain unique government documents since 2010, which has been reported on by Russia Today, Salon, Techdirt, The Mirror, The Express and other outlets. He has authored and co-authored articles for Critical Sociology and the American Journal of Economics and Sociology and hosts the popular ClandesTime podcast.

Interview with Pearse Redmond of Porkins Policy Radio, Newsbud & BFP by Abby & Robbie Martin
"Bobcat Goldthwait directed this moving documentary about comedian and peace activist Barry Crimmins. The film is masterfully structured in such a way that it starts as a typical film about an artist, who a group of people believe more people should know. Comics who were given opportunities thanks to him or have memories of his early work appear on screen. Goldthwait then hits the audience with information about a horrific experience from Crimmins’ childhood, and the film is instantly transformed into something incredible...His brash wit and knowledge of current events produce material that still is edgy today. His material is inspired by a motivation for peace and justice...It is refreshing to know there are people in the world of comedy like Barry." - Kevin Gosztola on Shadowproof.com
Instead of making Barry go through the plot of 'Call Me Lucky', we spend most of the time talking about the state of the modern comedy scene & how the Reagan-era never ended.

Donald Trump's comments about arabs in New Jersey cheering from rooftops on 9/11 have sparked controversy and outrage, but what if Trump is confusing 2 different real events together and inaccurately repeating them as a memory? Is it possible that even someone as ridiculous as Trump could be a 'victim' of the intentionally racist script we were indoctrinated with on the day of 9/11 itself? Why were there 3 separate mainstream media stories between 9:40am and 1:30pm on the day of 9/11 itself that placed blame on Palestinian terrorist groups for the attacks? Robbie tries to answer all these questions and more in this solo episode of Media Roots Radio.

Ata Ebtekar also known as Sote has been carving his own path in the lexicon of electronic music for the better part of 2 decades. Ata attended school in Germany and later audio engineering school in the San Francisco bay area. It happened to be the same school Robbie Martin (co-host of Media Roots Radio and aka Fluorescent Grey) attended, Expression Center for New Media. Expression was home to not just audio students but also cgi and visual students many of whom later ended up working for Hollywood fx companies. Ata was a few classes ahead of Robbie and through a random series of circumstances they became friends and later Ata became an artist who would release multiple works on Robbie's long running music imprint 'Record Label Records'. For a while Ata would travel to and from Tehran to the united states regularly, staying for months and years at a time in each location but now Ata is in Tehran to stay, further exploring the unexplored outer edges of electronic and experimental music.
Ata aka Sote will release a brand new full length called Arrhythmia digitally on Record Label Records May 25th

Recently I traveled to one of the most nefarious prisons in the world: Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. Despite repeated government pledges to close the infamous detention facility down, 149 men remained indefinitely imprisoned there.
According to a Bush administration official, the vast majority of prisoners are innocent, and were either swept up in a dragnet or handed over in exchange for US bounties.
It's already hard enough to travel to Gitmo as a journalist, but upon arrival I realized the experience was going to be totally controlled, with 24/7 military official escorts preventing us from going near the detainees I had come to report on.
However, I was able to speak with several top brass who serve as defense attorneys for the military commissions, a corrupted system that grants alleged terrorists less rights than in civilian courts. The fact that six men are facing formal charges at the prison in relation to 9/11 & the USS Cole bombing gives the world the false impression that even alleged terrorists get their day in court. In reality, the remaining 143 men never charged with a crime may never get that luxury.
My brother Robbie interviewed me about the trip, which is a more personal account than presented on Breaking the Set.

Most people who became politically aware, or 'woke up' after 9/11 might wrongly assume that warrantless wiretapping, rendition of terror suspects, the formation of the homeland security agency and predator drones were spearheaded by the Bush administration.
Yet the framework for the 'War on Terror' was actually put into place by President Clinton. Not only did Clinton have several opportunities to either capture or kill Bin Laden, but in the year prior to leaving office, he was warned with eerily similar Presidential Daily Briefs (PDBs) to Bush about imminent US plane hijackings. Throughout out the 90s, the Taliban also rose to power with the help of the Pakistani ISI, Unocal, the CIA and Enron.

disclaimer: Jon says he made a few mistakes during this interview when citing things from memory. One of them was that Richard Clarke was given a flight manifest at 9:59 with the name of the hijackers on it.
Instead…

In this episode of Media Roots Radio, Robbie and Abby Martin detail the history of the NSA’s ‘Program’ as told in PBS’ State of Secrets and the whistleblowing by Thomas Drake, Bill Binney and eventually Edward Snowden. They also examine several of the criticisms coming towards Greenwald and Snowden from the left leaning alternative-media and more ‘fringe’ circles of the Internet, such as ‘there’s nothing new in the documents’and that ‘they aren’t releasing them fast enough’. They also discuss the near death of Net Neutrality, Uruguay’s badass president and the dark underbelly of corporate surveillance.

Media Roots Radio - DC Think Tanks Create New Cold War Tipping Point by Abby & Robbie Martin
Here's the short version on Breaking the Set: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mGObsyDziBc
Abby & Robbie Martin do the first Media Roots Podcast since Abby made international headlines for her off-script remarks opposing the Russian / US involvement in Crimea. They discuss the corporate media hijacking the message to further demonize Russia and outline how an influential DC think-tank called the Foreign Policy Initiative (or FPI) was directly involved in smearing her and RT as a tool to "rally" the people into the brink of a new Cold War.
All roads lead to a tightly knit 'hip' and 'young' group of hardcore neoconservative DC players who place themselves in 'millennial' publications like the Daily Beast, Daily Banter and Buzzfeed to push insidious neoconservative propaganda that derives from William Kristol's Foreign Policy Initiative.
James Kirchick is not only a senior fellow for (and the sole prominent journalist of) the FPI, but he also used to be an employee of a US funded 'white propaganda' radio network that spreads Pro US military and policy views to adversarial nations in regional languages (i.e.: they broadcasted pro US military propaganda in arabic in Iraq during the Iraq war).
As Abby and Robbie were figuring out what was going on as her 'stand' was being hijacked and subsequently smeared by war mongering neocons, the television show 'House of Cards' started to seem like total non-fiction.

Abby and Robbie Martin discuss the LAX shooting that happened last month and the implications it could have for others peacefully protesting TSA policies. They talk about willful blindness preventing people from accepting reality when it comes the extent of government criminality. Since the phrase ‘conspiracy theory’ has become weaponized against those questioning government propaganda, the term ‘State Crimes Against Democracy’ should be used when describing secret acts committed by government elements, such as financial looting with the banking industry.

On the latest edition of Media Roots Radio, Abby and Robbie Martin discuss how a new war against Syria seems all but inevitable.
They talk about the eerily similar establishment rhetoric between the Iraq war buildup and today’s Syria war mongering – specifically the potential unilateral US military action in defiance of the UN, the ‘humanitarian’ justification and the scare tactics of ‘chemical weapons’. A recent speech by Secretary of State, John Kerry, marked a distinct turning point in the ferocity of the Syria rhetoric, which is dissected by Robbie and Abby in its entirety.

In this exclusive interview with presidential candidate Rocky Anderson of the Justice Party, he provides three items the American federal government must do right now to get back on track. He also talks about voter suppression, the American political duopoly, the “mallification” of America, and the differences between him and Dr. Ron Paul. Emphatically, Mr. Anderson feels that America needs an era of people driven by “broad-based democracy” in order for America to return to its former glory. This interview was recorded at the Republican National Convention in Tampa, Florida on August 28, 2012 with Adam Miezo for Media Roots.
Media Roots Radio - Obama Immunizes Torturers, Murderers, War Criminals by Abby & Robbie Martin
Abby and Robbie Martin talk about Julian Assange's asylum at the Ecuadorian embassy in the UK and how this has nothing do with the rape accusations but is a larger game of intimidation against whistleblowers internationally. They also get into discussing Trapwire, Marine veteran Brandon Raub and Abby's new show 'Breaking the Set' due to air on Russia Today the 4th of September 2012.
This set is dedicated to humanity: the establishment of peace and the eradication of intolerance. I believe this can be achieved once we have taken away the power from elite politicians, lobbyists, CEO's and others that have most of the say in the current operational state of the world. Once we reclaim our power as human beings, we can make this world as amazing and as hospitable as it should be toward every living creature and thing. With the right amount of positive social change, this will become a reality.
Love,
ATOP Akkad the Orphic Priest

As Senator, Gravel became nationally known for his attempts to end the draft during the Vietnam War and for putting the Pentagon Papers into the public record in 1971. He is an advocate of direct democracy and the National Initiative.
Gravel endorses the 9/11 Ballot Initiative movement across the country, saying the measure would create a "citizens commission rather than a government commission" with subpoena power against top U.S. officials to "make a true investigation as to what happened" regarding the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks.

MEDIA ROOTS- Trevor Paglen's work deliberately blurs the lines between science, contemporary art, journalism, and other disciplines to construct unfamiliar, yet meticulously researched ways to see and interpret the world around us.
Paglen’s visual work has been exhibited at several art museums worldwide and his writing and art have been published in major publications including The New York Times, Wired, Vanity Fair and Newsweek. Paglen holds a B.A. from UC Berkeley, an M.F.A. from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, and a Ph.D. in Geography from UC Berkeley, where he remains an affiliated researcher.
In the 90s, Paglen was a member of a locally revered bay area noise/experimental project called Noise Gate, and co-ran an infamous underground venue in downtown Oakland called the Sandcrawler. His electronic music background hugely inspired co-host Robbie Martin in his own musical evolution.
Paglen is also the author of several books: Torture Taxi, the first book to comprehensively cover the CIA's extraordinary rendition program; I Could Tell You But Then You Would Have to be Destroyed by Me, a book looking at the world of black projects through unit patches and memorabilia created for top-secret programs; and Blank Spots on the Map: The Dark Geography of the Pentagon's Secret World, a book that gives a broader look at secrecy in the United States.
