    2025/11/25 | 2h 11 mins.

    Chase Hughes has spent decades studying human behavior, influence, profiling, and covert mind-control tactics — working at the intersection of psychology, military intelligence, and persuasion science.We explore what makes someone easy to influence, manipulate, or control, and how can we flip that script. Because the same blueprint used to break down a person’s will can also be used to rebuild sovereignty and create healing instead of harm.Watch This Episode on YouTubeResources:Unrestricted Warfare: China's Master Plan to Destroy AmericaEvery PSYOP Will Become ObviousConnect with Chase:WebsiteInstagramYouTubeConnect with Adam:WebsiteInstagramPodcastYouTubeConnect with Cal:InstagramTikTokFacebookYouTubeWebsiteSubscribe to the newsletterSponsors:BERSKI: Use code UNLEARN for the best holistic, nutrient-dense meat sticks in the gameCheck out all of the amazing discounts from our Sponsors

About The Great Unlearn

We grew up in a world we didn’t create. And one idea after the next—whether it was culture or society—we were told how to look, how to feel, and who to be. We were told that if we checked off the “right” boxes (think: career, car, money), we’d feel good, we’d be whole, and—naturally—we’d be set. But, turns out, there’s more to the story. On The Great Unlearn, Cal dives into unlearning and questioning what the world taught us, and—in the process—how to be the truest version of yourself, minus the bullshit. Whether it’s figuring out how to navigate a relationship, dealing with your emotions, diving into spirituality, or just feeling comfortable in your own skin, Cal and friends navigate the choppy waters of what it really takes to unlearn all the ideas we took for granted, and how to be the best version of what, sometimes, can be so hard to be: yourself.
