Learn how to build a simple estate plan and lend or repay family money without hurting your relationships. What’s the first thing to do when creating an estate plan? What’s the smartest way to handle loans between friends or family? Hosts Sean Pyles and Elizabeth Ayoola break down estate-planning basics like wills, revocable trusts, living wills/advance healthcare directives, and durable powers of attorney — tools that can ensure your wishes are carried out and help your loved ones avoid probate. They also share when to update your documents, how beneficiary designations can override your will, and three simple to-dos to get started without feeling overwhelmed. Then, mortgage and student loans writer Kate Wood joins Sean and Elizabeth to answer a listener’s question about paying a loan back to her parents. They explore how family loans and lending circles work, why it’s important to put agreements in writing (and when notarizing helps), and the impact informal loans can have on your credit. They also weigh different ways to set money aside, comparing high-yield savings accounts with taxable brokerage accounts invested in ETFs and considering timelines, growth potential, and tax trade-offs.

We tap into their shared expertise of both music and DFW's novel for a freewheeling chat about Luca Guadagnino's tennis love triangle drama Challengers, the total banger score by Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross, David Foster Wallace's tennis magnum opus and plenty about the beautiful game (non-team division) itself.

Join Tim and Ben during a happier time (before Israel killed Nasrallah) for the conclusion of Ridley Scott Summer. You know the drill, everyone thinks this movie sucks ass but actually we think it's good.
Erik, Ben and Tim are all together to celebrate another 9/11 along with the less crazy but still wild three year anniversary of the podcast. Everyone made the mistake of listening to Ben and we wound up watching and talking 2006's bewildering Death of a President. We wade through an insanely twisty 96 minutes that left all us scratching our heads trying to figure out what the hell this movie is actually supposed to be about. We also talk Syria, Bush era derangement syndrome, Green Day. We marvel at James Urbaniak's show stealing bit part, do competing W impressions and end with not one but two big announcements about the future of the show. Neither involves us quitting, sorry to the haters and nothing but love for the rest of you xoxo…
Welcome to the week of 9/11, and the third anniversary of PNAC pod! As a special treat this week, we're releasing a bit of a prototype episode in which Erik does a solo scene talking about Gary Berntsen's 2005 book, Jawbreaker. This is the first in a rolling series of more book report episodes to come, hopefully each successive entry more streamlined than the last. Check back next week for 1-2 episodes in this same vein that will go a bit more indepth than this one on Patrick Seale's 1991 book, Abu Nidal: A Gun for Hire.…

Ben and Erik are joined all the way from Beiruit by independent journalist Séamus Malekafzali (@seamus_malek) to get a firsthand report of a week where Israel only continues to ramp up regional aggression and murder civilians (and journalists, and humanitarian aid workers). Together, we talk about the twin assassinations by Israel that sparked a response from Hezbollah while Iran continues to leave us all guessing. We also talk Sinwar hiding in women's clothes (?), Rape Rebellion vets on the Israeli talk show circuit, Judith Miller, polio, and grim future plans for Egypt & Jordan. All that, plus US CENTOM goes looking for love in all the right places. Check out Sèamus' excellent substack: https://www.seamus-malekafzali.com/ And stay tuned some more fun guests as we celebrate the build up to the 3 (!!) year anniversary of us starting the show. Thanks as always for listening, some exciting news will be coming soon!…
Classico PNAC, the boys get together to spin a yarn about a very cool Saudi businessman with 9/11 ties and some very cool kids and grandkids. This story has everything from interior design to combat sports to Israel and KSA normalizing relations over their love of really bad electronic music. Remember to follow us on Triller!

We're not exactly sure how this happened, but it seems like most of twitter decided to watch Prometheus at the same time Ben and Tim decided to do an episode about it while Erik was away.
Ben and Erik are back to discuss a round-up of best remembered current events from the last 3 weeks as the boys have been away. We actually buckled down and did our homework to discuss the KSM et al.

What even is time, anyway? Apologies for the choppiness throughout, we were both experiencing connection issues while recording. Super producer Erik is of the belief that he did a good job cleaning it up.
Or "The Woman Who Was Cool". The boys sit down with good friend of the show Gus to remind you that Todd Field invented Big League Chew and also that his movie Tár absolutely rules. We dare to ask "is Cate Blanchette good at conducting?", spot ghosts, trying to enjoy Monster Hunter, playing the triangle right and "what this movie is actually about?" Watching the End of History will return next along with Hollywood Tim as we tackle another deeply weird Stephen Spielberg/Tom Cruise 00s sci-fi movie. This time though, a movie that is almost as obsessed with 9/11 as our show is: 2005's War of the Worlds.

The boys put on their cowboy hats and get on the bus to talk about one of Ben's all time favorite movies: Kenneth Lonergan's 2011 coming-of-age tale of trauma, Margaret. We get into PTSD, realizing your life isn't a movie, and #ReleaseTheMartyCut; along with The Girlfriend Experience, Rocky and Bullwinkle, Zizek-pilled Jean Reno, and generally just get unbelievably real on this.…

Welcome to season 3. In which Erik and Ben go toe to toe with end boss Bush/Cheney/Rummy etc. We power walk down memory lane catching you up on world history since the end of the Second World War. Spider networks, World War 3, anti communist extermination campaigns all bring us to the fateful year where the wheels truly start to come off the bus. Plus we talk Adam Curtis, the NBA playoffs, and reach back into the PNAC vault to read some throwback election analysis from friend of the show and former twitter user "not the real Marina Oswald". Pardon Erik's moronic and incessant laughter throughout the episode, he was strung out on no sleep and fresh morning air after recently adopting a stray kitten.…

We are joined by Canadian correspondent and good friend of the show Ambrose Sylvan to discuss their new article on Saudi Arabia, Qatar and their ties to Elon Musk's purchase of Twitter last year. We ask what the Canadian 9/11 was and talk Arab Spring, Saudi sportswashing and get get into Jack Teixeira and the Discord Papers. We also make fun of Matt Taibbi, cancel Hitler, and decide if Ben can change Noor Bin Laden. Ambrose's CovertAction Magazine article: https://covertactionmagazine.com/2023/04/06/flipping-the-bird-site-how-elon-musks-twitter-builds-a-pipeline-from-the-alt-right-to-salafi-extremists/ For more of Ambrose's writing, visit their site "Liminal States": https://liminalstates.politics.blog/…

Live from Golgotha it is the PNAC boys. We celebrate Easter the only way we know how, by dipping into Mel Gibson's deranged Bush era snuff film The Passion of Christ. Plus this time around we are also talking S Craig Zahler, Terri Schiavo, Left Behind along with holding Mel accountable for some frankly unbelievably antisemitic content. In 2 weeks we have returning champion/sexual chess master PD joining us to talk Zach Snyder's Watchmen and Ben is so ready to be yelled at.…

And in the second half of our double header we have podcast dad Adam Fitzgerald back to wrap up our season 2 investigation as we separate fact from fiction with regards to Urban Moving Systems, the infamous Dancing Israelis and further links between Mossad and the larger 9/11 universe. Plus we look back at 20 years since the invasion of Iraq and Ben gets really pissed off at NPR as a result. We are back to our regular schedule and will be blessing you next Easter Weekend with a new Watching The End of History on Mel Gibson's 2004 snuff film The Passion of the Christ. Keep an eye out for a preview in the coming week or so for our next investigation because in order to fight our greatest battle we must first gaze backwards into the abyss of the past.…

The boys are back and this time are joined by the man who first put the sickness that is Richard Blee's name into our heads all those years ago Ben Howard (@housetrotter). We dig into a newly unredacted and often very spicy filing from the Guantanamo 9/11 hearings. We are catching up on all your favorites here folks; Bandar, Omar, Alec Station and of course a return to the bad food restaurant. All that and a super import update on the immediate future from Ben to kick off the show.
