EMP Flashpoints, Solar Fury & Bone-Walker Legends - May 18, 2025
Season 1 · Episode 3
Art Grindstone fires up the bunker mic for a wild circuit from looming cataclysms to off-beat curiosities. First, he dissects the Vienna peace talks gone cold and the $84 billion global arms spike that followed, then maps how an upper-atmosphere nuke could fry North America’s aging transformers in a single flash.
From there it’s a triple-shot of solar chaos: why Solar Cycle 25 is roaring ahead of schedule, how geomagnetic storms might (or might not) nudge earthquake faults, and what a monster coronal hole means for a world already overdue for a mega-quake. The night pivots to unlikely revelations—a crash course in cathedral plumbing (or lack thereof), bone-walker legends under the aurora, and the unnerving ease with which AIs spin courtroom-ready hallucinations.
Art closes with foam-rubber satire (Transylvania Television’s foul-mouthed puppets) and CERN’s newest pentaquark that has tabloids shrieking “planet-eating black hole.” One hour of razor-edged headlines, deep geekery, and ash-tray wisdom that proves wonder and danger share the same frequency. Buckle up.
