Tonight’s Black Pill Monday rundown: I didn’t watch the Super Bowl (if my team ain’t in it, I’m out) — I was watching curling and figure skating — but the real story isn’t “Halftime Show vs. Halftime Show.”

It’s how easily we get herded into culture-war team sports while bigger moves slide by: Ring’s “Search Party” AI, normalization of the surveillance state, war posture talk (Iran), the political spectacle cycle, and the every-year “two-party illusion” carousel.

We also hit Ash Wednesday / Lent prep, St. Apollonia (patron saint of teeth), and a practical Lent recommendation: St. John Climacus (The Ladder of Divine Ascent). If you’re not preparing to fast seriously, what are we even doing?

Key topics include:

Super Bowl pricing absurdities + “amateur night” energy

The “All-American Halftime Show” controversy & lip-sync debate

Ring AI “Search Party” and why “puppies” are the sales pitch for surveillance

War posture headlines: Persian Gulf drills, Israel/Netanyahu meeting, Iran chatter

A college hearing moment on “anti-Zionism = antisemitism” framing (and the mic cut)

Epstein file redactions mentioned by Massie/Ro Khanna

ICE headlines + detention warehouse reporting

Olympics highlights + curling scoring confusion (help me out here)

Aloe vera home/health practicals + mold/bathroom plant talk

Property tax abolition talk in TX/OH

And a bunch more “clown planet” headlines you’re not getting on the broadcast feed

Sponsors mentioned (from the show):

Catholic Mobile (pro-life / pro-family alternative)

Martyr’s Walk Fund (support + boot camp sponsorship / aid)

If you’re new here: the show notes are in the links under the video with everything in chronological order.

Like, subscribe, comment (especially if you know curling scoring like the back of your hand), and share this with a friend who’s tired of being emotionally farmed by the algorithm.

God love you.
