The episode opens with a dramatic and conspiratorial exploration of secret societies, tracing their influence from the ancient Knights Templars through Freemasonry and the Illuminati to modern global power structures. Host William Cooper presents a sweeping narrative in which Freemasonry is portrayed not as a Christian fraternity but as a pre-Christian esoteric order centered on Lucifer as a symbol of enlightenment and human perfection. He claims the Templars were political operatives who brought hidden knowledge to Europe, and that Christopher Columbus was a Templar who sailed to fund a new crusade to reclaim Jerusalem, symbolized by the green cross flag. The episode escalates into a dire warning about a coming global transformation orchestrated by a secret elite, aiming to dismantle nation-states, religions, and individual freedom in favor of a totalitarian, socialist world order led by a collective 'God' figure—Horus—representing the initiated elite. This narrative is reinforced by claims that the French Revolution was not a movement for liberty but a premeditated operation by the Illuminati to destroy monarchy, religion, and the bourgeoisie through engineered chaos, famine, and terror. The storming of the Bastille, the Great Fear, and the Reign of Terror are recast as strategic maneuvers to eliminate the 'useless eaters'—the educated and productive classes—using propaganda and mass violence. The episode further asserts that historical figures like Thomas Jefferson, George Washington, and Benjamin Franklin were members of these secret orders, helping lay the foundation for a globalist agenda disguised as democracy. A special segment featuring 'Oil Prices' as a guest adds a contemporary economic dimension, warning of an imminent financial collapse in October and urging listeners to prepare by acquiring physical assets and rejecting fiat currency. The episode concludes with a call to resistance, framing the current moment as a critical juncture where freedom must be defended against a coordinated effort to enslave humanity through knowledge control and systemic collapse.
Freemasonry and the Knights Templars are portrayed as pre-Christian, elitist secret societies focused on human perfection through esoteric knowledge, with Lucifer symbolizing enlightenment rather than evil.
The French Revolution was a strategic operation by the Illuminati to destroy nation-states, religion, and the middle class, using engineered panic and mass violence to justify the elimination of the 'useless eaters'.
Historical figures like Thomas Jefferson, George Washington, and Benjamin Franklin are alleged to have been members of these secret orders, helping design the U.S. as a vehicle for a future global socialist regime.
The ultimate goal of the secret elite is a totalitarian New World Order, achieved through financial collapse, population control, and the erasure of national and religious identities.
Listeners are urged to prepare for an imminent economic crash by acquiring physical assets and rejecting digital and fiat currencies.

The Ancient Secret Doctrine and the Origins of Freemasonry
“The men of this little Eastern church styled themselves Johannite Christians and lived on in Palestine. They felt a special gratitude to Hugh de Payens, and his knights for befriending the pilgrims to the holy lands. And so they rewarded the Templars with the treasures of knowledge they had hoarded through twelve hundred years.”
The Knights Templars: Myth vs. Reality
“The truth is, they were commissioned by the King of Jerusalem. They were not a religious order. In fact, they were not accepted by the Catholic Church until many years later when they become so wealthy and so powerful that the Pope needed them as an ally.”
Albert Pike and the True Philosophy of Freemasonry
“The capital, which is you and I. As much due diligence as they have practiced to attempt to keep all of this a secret, ladies and gentlemen, over the hundreds and thousands of years of their existence it has crept out in writings and in hieroglyphic reliefs, in books, in symbols, in ceremonies, in the relief and in the buildings of ancient and modern architecture.”
The New World Order and the Rise of Horus
Cooper reveals the ultimate endgame: a global transformation led by the secret elite, where all religions and nation-states are dissolved, and a new socialist world order is established under the banner of Horus—the collective of initiated adepts. He warns that this will be enforced through technological control, historical erasure, and the elimination of overpopulation.
The Templar Legacy and the Birth of Friday the 13th
“And because of it, and because of the torture that followed, worked upon the Templars in their captivity. And the eventual burning at the stake of almost all of them, including their Grand Master Jacques de Molay, the Templars who had fled France, and all of the Templars who were residing or traveling or happened to find themselves in other countries at the time, went underground, moved in to the various fratern orders that existed at that time and rose to the top and took them over.”
“The truth is, they were commissioned by the King of Jerusalem. They were not a religious order. In fact, they were not accepted by the Catholic Church until many years later when they become so wealthy and so powerful that the Pope needed them as an ally.”
“And now they are in the process of going about their business, of taking that freedom back from the common man and cementing their ties that they have made in the power structure of all the nations of the world to dissolve all the existing religions. all existing nation-states, to shackle the mob and bring about their final victory, their utopian socialist world government, which they call the Golden Dawn, the New World Order, the New Age.”
“The capital, which is you and I. As much due diligence as they have practiced to attempt to keep all of this a secret, ladies and gentlemen, over the hundreds and thousands of years of their existence it has crept out in writings and in hieroglyphic reliefs, in books, in symbols, in ceremonies, in the relief and in the buildings of ancient and modern architecture.”
