Single Dad Murdered After Instagram Date | Why the Old Safety Rules Still Matter | Karel Cast Ep 25-63

“DM → Date → DEAD 💔”

“Why We’re Ignoring the Rules That Could Save Our Lives”

🎙️ Description

A single dad ends up dead after meeting a woman through Instagram. They exchanged DMs, went on a date… and he was found in a pool of blood next to his car. In an era of dating apps and DMs, are we ignoring the safety rules that used to protect us? This shocking story proves: **the rules haven’t changed—**we’ve just stopped following them.



🚨 In this episode of The Karel Cast, I break down what happened and why it matters. From true crime shows to real-world tragedy, we keep seeing one theme: our parents’ safety advice still applies—but tech has made us forget.



🧼 Also today: Food safety in the U.S. is collapsing. There’s one product you should AVOID buying right now—and no, it’s not meat (which you shouldn’t be eating anyway!).



🎬 Plus, as the weekend rolls in, we dive into the latest entertainment news and ask: Should we give more tax breaks to U.S. productions?



🕙 The Karel Cast goes LIVE Monday–Thursday at 10:30am PST.

Trump’s Flying Palace EXPOSED, Music Mogul Trial Drama, and #1 Artist of the Century Shocks Fans!

Karel Cast Ep. 25-64

🚨 Trump says “Buy American,” but happily accepts a $500M luxury jet from Qatar — a nation far from an ally. Why? He wants a flying Mar-a-Lago! The current Air Force One isn’t lavish enough, apparently. But don’t worry — YOU’LL be footing the bill. Will Elon DOGE this one?

🎤 A major music mogul is on trial, but why is this case making headlines while Weinstein fades into the background? The answer might be simpler — and scarier — than you think.

💿 Plus, the best-selling music artist of the 21st century has been revealed — and it’s NOT who you think! The numbers will blow your mind.

America’s Budget Battle EXPOSES a Harsh Truth | Karel Cast 25-67

💥 You spend money on what matters. So why is the U.S. government slashing Medicare, Medicaid, food aid, and education — but pouring billions into war and tax cuts for the wealthy? The answer is painful: America has an empathy problem. And it’s killing us.

🇺🇸 Politicians reflect the people. When Biden revealed his cancer diagnosis, the right didn’t respond with compassion — they mocked him, spread conspiracies, and celebrated. What does that say about us?

💣 Is the U.S. on the brink of collapse — or already past the point of no return? This isn’t a rant. It’s a reality check.

👀 Plus, the Diddy drama deepens — and what was reportedly found in his hotel room is shocking. Drug cocktails, bizarre personal items… it paints a dark picture of celebrity excess and self-destruction.

Why Society Keeps Collapsing—And We Just Pretend It’s Fine | Karel Cast 25-71

Description:
Our world is unraveling, but we’re too busy pretending everything’s normal. In today’s Karel Cast, I break down a powerful article on hypernormalization—how we normalize the absurd and destructive just to keep functioning. Sound familiar? It should.

Also: The anti-LGBTQ+ agenda continues to escalate. Where does it end? What is the ultimate goal of those targeting queer lives and rights?

Plus, Trump’s latest move? Pardoning reality show felons. How much lower can it go?

I have been trying to follow along,
hoping it’s not as simple as
the weak versus the strong
It’s a lousy way to have to learn
a new city grid, not to mention
with what everybody did that got us here

Now they’ve called in the folks in helmets
The ones who allegedly don’t care
They’re going to find out who’s into 
assymetrical warfare, warfare

Saw the light, we saw the fire
saw the images go out across the wire
and now we’re sweeping up
the pieces that came apart
Saw the darkness, we saw the noise
We saw the girls and boys
holding it down against authority

Now there’s folks on the TV screen
excited and talking mean like 
they’re trying to crack their makeup 
but if this was happening in their hood
none of this would be all good, the truth 
would be they’d treat it like another breakup

Everybody’s gonna mistake 
the setting for the plot
Focus on what they think that people got
instead of what they say they want
which might be a decent start
if we were deescalating

Warfare (#SAWC No. 3)

Today's guest is Dan Perkins, an expert on politics and current events. The topic today is from one of Dan’s commentaries titled: "I was raised to be a thinker, not a blind follower." Dan reviewed John Pavlovitz’s piece, The Beautiful Mess**, where Pavlovitz examined how the Trump election affected family relationships. He discovered that many people cut ties with family and friends who voted for Trump.

On the show we discussed why It is crucial to remember that political disagreements, no matter how fervent, should not overshadow the deeper values of unity and understanding within families and communities. While discussing pertinent issues such as border policies, inflation rates, and crime statistics provides vital insights into governance, it is also necessary to approach these conversations with respect for differing viewpoints and a willingness to engage in meaningful dialogue. Political polarization can exacerbate divisions, but it can also serve as an opportunity for reflection and the mending of strained relationships.

In 2014, the late Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks stood on the AJC Global Forum stage and delivered a powerful call to action. 
Over a decade later, at AJC Global Forum 2025, AJC’s Director of Jewish Communal Partnerships, Meggie Wyschogrod Fredman, revisits that message in a special crossover episode between 'People of the Pod' and 'Books and Beyond' the podcast that delves deeply into (and beyond) four of Rabbi Jonathan Sacks' books, created and hosted by Tanya White, a Sacks Scholar of the Rabbi Sacks Legacy.

This is more than an anthem; it's a resolute declaration in a critical moment. "Just Cause to Stand and Fight" delivers a powerful epic rock message, leaving no doubt about the necessary action against Iran's reign of terror and tyranny.
With its relentless beat and commanding vocals, this song champions the vital alliance between the United States and Israel. It asserts the moral and strategic imperative to confront a regime that openly threatens global security, sponsors terrorism, and commits widespread human rights atrocities against its own people—including arbitrary arrests, torture, and severe discrimination against women, minorities, and LGBTI individuals. The recent successful US strikes on Iran's nuclear facilities, executed with bold leadership, underscore the commitment to dismantle threats and protect innocent lives.
This song is a rallying cry for all who recognize the clear and present danger posed by Iran's dangerous ambitions and its pursuit of destructive capabilities. It calls for unwavering unity, celebrating those who dare to take decisive action to secure freedom, protect allies, and ensure a just future for humanity.
Join the stand. The fight for what's right begins now.

Just Cause to Stand and Fight (Lyrics)

When tyranny's grip attempts to bind,And justice's light is hard to find,
We see the threats, we hear the plea,For a world where all can truly be free.
From shadows cast, a nation's cry,As dangerous ambitions reach for the sky.
A moment comes, demanding choice,To amplify the silent voice.

With Trump, a vision, bold and clear,Dispelling doubt, and banishing fear.
For Israel's safety, strong and bright,We stand for freedom, truth, and right.
Against extremism, we unite,To bring the future into light.

The human cost, laid bare for all,As basic freedoms rise and fall.
From ruthless rule, their dark designs,Suppressing lives, crossing all lines.
No turning back, no weak retreat,When terror's agenda we must defeat.
For every soul, unjustly bound,In firm resolve, our strength is found.

With Trump, a vision, bold and clear,Dispelling doubt, and banishing fear.
For Israel's safety, strong and bright,We stand for freedom, truth, and right.
Against extremism, we unite,To bring the future into light.

To those who question, hesitate to embrace,Consider the cost, and the perilous space.
When evil plans are plainly known,And seeds of chaos widely sown.
Decisive action, a path we take,For future generations, freedom's sake.

The fanatics' reign, a backward past,Their cruel agenda cannot last.
With every blow, for justice's call,We watch their oppressive empire fall.
The world observes, the truth will shine,As brave intentions now align.

With Trump, a vision, bold and clear,Dispelling doubt, and banishing fear.
For Israel's safety, strong and bright,We stand for freedom, truth, and right.
Against extremism, we unite,To bring the future into light.

So let the naysayers now perceive,The righteous cause that we believe.
With courage true, and purpose deep,The promises of freedom, we will keep.
