A blunt, unsentimental dive into propaganda, ideology, and the contemporary cult of belief.
Host Todd Thompson dissects how both corporate and collectivist power structures manipulate guilt, fear, and identity to keep the herd in line. From Ellul and Chomsky to Didion and Camus, the show fuses political philosophy, field experience, and gallows humor to expose how revolutions become religions, and how “progress” often hides new forms of control.
The X-Pod is an autopsy of the narratives that shape us: digital Marxism, moral theater, and the algorithmic priests of the new faith. Expect philosophy with scars, historical context with teeth, and the rare luxury of an honest sentence.

Episode 2 – August 11, 2025
On this week’s WBCQ broadcast, Todd dives deep into one of the most paradoxical coalitions — the Red-Green Alliance between far-left radicals and Islamist extremists. From its historical roots in the Soviet era to its modern presence in universities, activist networks, and even elected offices, Todd begins unpacking how two ideologies with irreconcilable differences unite against their shared enemy: Western civilization, particularly the United States. Along the way, he draws rhyming parallels to Mao’s Cultural Revolution, exposes the rhetorical and tactical playbook, and warns what history says will happen if either side wins. Hint: nothing good for Marxists.
