After a half-week battle with pneumonia, JR Jimenez is back in the studio with a wake-up call for the hustle community. In this raw episode of the True Hustle Podcast, JR shares the "rude awakening" he had in the hospital and why health is the only wealth that actually matters. From a frustrating run-in with the Downey Police Department to the rapid 24-hour cancellation of Cesar Chavez, we’re covering the headlines the mainstream won’t touch, including $10 gas prices, the reality of cloud seeding in California, and why the Dodgers are locked in for a three-peat. If you’re tired of the social media highlight reels and ready for some real talk on business, betrayal, and the "attitude of gratitude," this one is for you. Is California officially broken? Let’s talk in the comments.

Dr. Terry Dubrow — world-renowned plastic surgeon and star of Botched — joins the podcast for a wild conversation about the future of health, AI, longevity, and cosmetic surgery.From AI assistants that could eventually run your life like a real-life Jarvis, to peptides, creatine, and GLP-1 drugs that may help people stay leaner and live longer, this episode dives deep into the science shaping the future of human health.Dr. Dubrow also exposes the dark side of today’s plastic surgery trends, including Brazilian Butt Lifts, breaks down how social media is fueling unrealistic beauty standards, and reveals the real risks behind procedures many people assume are harmless.If you want to understand where medicine, technology, beauty, and longevity are headed, this conversation will completely change the way you think about your health — and the future.

In this raw, wide-ranging conversation with Anthony Cabassa, we break down the Minnesota ICE shooting, law enforcement use of force, media bias, and how personal experience inside DHS and journalism shapes perspective. From immigration enforcement and cartel influence to California politics, corruption, protests, faith, nationalism, and America’s role in the Western Hemisphere, this episode doesn’t dodge uncomfortable truths. Whether you agree or disagree, this is an unfiltered, evidence-driven discussion about power, accountability, culture, and the future of America.
