For this week’s bonus episode, the Watchie Boiyz welcome Liv to the team to talk about her love of Mission: Impossible and her history with inferior, sub-par action films. Before they INITIATE GHOST PROTOCOL, Keegan tells his much hyped story from his lil’ teenage ruffian years and Jeremy cannot, in the slightest, contain himself as the pod gears up to watch one of his favourite movies of all time.
With director Brad Bird fresh off Ratatouille, he brought his animation eye-for-detail and delivered a genre-defining action/adventure extravaganza. 
The Watchie Boiyz discuss retconning Ethan Hunt’s marriage, blowing up the Kremlin and of course spend a large chunk of time explaining the many ways Tom Cruise is a crazy person for dangling out of the tallest building in the world for our amusement.
Will Keegan finally get his launch codes? Has Jeremy overhyped this movie way too much? Will the Watchie Boiyz be able to climb the Burj-Khalifa with only one sticky glove? 
Only one way to find out...

Episode 402 - Tom Cruise M:I Hair Ranking

GHOST PROTOCOL

Signal encrypted. Frequency masked. Truth unlocked.

“Ghost Protocol” is the confessional anthem of a comp sci kid from Southie turned digital saboteur.
Raised by blue-collar values, weaponized by Kendall Square boardrooms, and radicalized by injustice, Cipher returns with terabytes of truth and a beat that can’t be tracked.

From Cambridge tech blacklists to Raytheon facial scans and ICE contracts, this isn’t fiction—this is what happens when the code fights back.

You won’t find peace in your privacy settings.
You’ll find it in resistance mode.

GHOST PROTOCOL

Ghost Protocol

>...
A ghost-born warrior breaks through firewalls and code to launch sonic psychological warfare. “Silk & Firewire” blends industrial trap, glitch, jungle, and haunted ambiance to deliver a digital rebellion anthem. Ghost in the machine. Beat of the breach. Third wave of the GHOST PROTOCOL psywar series.
>...
  
  

Silk & Firewire

> Broadcast straight from the jungle circuitry—this track isn’t for dancing, it’s for decoding.

"Psychedelic Jungle Warfare" transmits encrypted defiance over breakbeats built to shake roots and rattle regimes. The bassline marches. The hi-hats scatter. The message burns.

Tuned for junglists from Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh, Cairo to Kyiv, this is music that slips past censors and lands like thunder.

Dubbed in frequencies they can’t silence.
Masked in smoke.
Marked for freedom.

You are not lost—you’re picking up signal. Welcome to the Ghost Line.

🔻 #RiddimOfResistance
🔻 #WeaponisedSound




::TRANSMISSION RECEIVED – NODE: HANOI::

The jungle speaks in bass.  
Drums echo from Trúc Bạch to Tây Hồ.  
We ride the riddim. We ride the resistance.  
Psychedelic Jungle Warfare has breached the Hanoi underground.

I See You.

Psychedelic Jungle Warfare

🍎 FORBIDDEN – the scream you hear after the apple drops.

This is the sound of the first bite — the moment you trade innocence for insight.
A serpent’s whisper turned to thunder. A revelation too loud for heaven.

Screamed through glitching circuits and scorched myth, FORBIDDEN fuses industrial trap, cinematic darkness, and raw vocal breakdowns.
It's not just a song — it's a warning.
An invocation.
An irreversible act.

What if Eden was a test of silence?
What if knowledge was the curse?
And what if you’d still bite it all again?

🔻 Listen close. There's truth laced in the distortion.
🎧 Headphones mandatory. Regret optional.

Forbidden

🌳 *Tree of Knowledge* – a track you don’t just hear, you *bite.*

This isn’t just music. It’s the sound of the first question.  
The forbidden bite. The whispered truth. The scream that follows.

A cinematic trap journey through glitch, myth, and revelation.  
Sparse whispered verses lure you in. Then one scream — one *break* — rips the veil clean open.

🔥 *“Do you want to know the truth?  
Can you bleed for every proof?”* 🔥

This version is optimized for impact — refined, focused, dangerous.  
Not a rage song. A precision strike.

🎧 Listen once and decide:  
Would you bite it again?

Dry Bones Rattle

"Ghost Protocol" - A whistleblower's anthem from the heart of Boston's surveillance state
Marcus Cipher breaks his silence. This dark electronic narrative follows a Southie-raised programmer from MIT dreams to moral awakening, exposing the surveillance infrastructure built in Kendall Square's glass towers. A true Boston story of digital resistance.

Merging industrial beats with Boston underground hip-hop influences, this track transforms corporate whistleblowing into a rallying cry for privacy rights. Every Tuesday night in South Boston, the resistance grows. Produced by Cruise Control Productions.

"Samuel Adams fought the British, we fight corporate surveillance state / Tea Party was just the beginning, now it's data that we liberate"

Production notes: Recorded in an undisclosed Boston location. Features actual encrypted data sounds converted to audio, field recordings from Kendall Square, and community vocals from local privacy advocates. Mixed on analog gear to avoid digital footprints.

Ghost Protocol (Yacht Club Remix)

🕸️ Silk & Circuitry 🧠⚡

Welcome to the tangled thread between trauma and transcendence.
This is where music becomes a mirror—reflecting the fractures, the fight, and the fire.
We don’t just make beats. We build bridges. Between pain and purpose.

Here, recovery isn’t a quiet thing.
It’s a war cry wrapped in melody,
a healing ritual whispered through circuitry,
a love letter to those who feel too much in a world that rewards those who feel nothing.

Every track is stitched with intent:
🕯️ To hold space for the broken
⚖️ To call out control masked as care
🧬 To challenge the narcissists who built their webs in our minds
🛠️ And to offer tools—not just songs—for doing what’s right when the cost is everything.

Silk & Circuitry is for the ones who walk away from the web
and grow wings instead.

This is art as resistance.
This is trauma turned frequency.
This is the ghost in your machine, learning how to feel.



I just post my own original music for me, but glad to share it here with you.
