A TREE almost helped start World War III. 🌳💥

In this episode of MX3 Podcast, we react to The Fat Electrician’s “World War Tree - Operation Paul Bunyan,” the incredible story of the 1976 Korean axe murder incident and the massive U.S. military response that followed.

After two American officers were killed in the Joint Security Area along the Korean DMZ, the United States returned to finish the job: cutting down a poplar tree. But this was no ordinary landscaping crew.

Operation Paul Bunyan brought an overwhelming show of force involving American and South Korean troops, helicopters, fighter aircraft, B-52 bombers, thousands of troops on standby, and the USS Midway. All to make sure one tree came down.

We react to The Fat Electrician’s telling of this bizarre Cold War confrontation and discuss just how quickly an incident at the DMZ could have spiraled into something much larger.

Team USA pulled off a dramatic comeback at the 2026 Presidents Cup, but the final 17–13 score doesn't tell the whole story.

After struggling through the team sessions and entering Sunday singles trailing the International Team 10.5–7.5, the Americans came roaring back. We break down what went wrong early, Brandt Snedeker's decisions as captain, Scottie Scheffler's response after being benched Saturday afternoon, Cara Banks' post-match interview, and why America's success in singles doesn't necessarily settle the debate over U.S. team golf.

We also discuss President Donald Trump's appearance at Medinah, his time alongside PGA Tour CEO Brian Rolapp, and Trump's trip to Durant, Oklahoma just days later.

Was Sunday's comeback proof that the criticism of Team USA was overblown, or did the Americans win despite serious problems in the team formats? Tell us what you think in the comments.

Two of America's most recognizable historic landmarks sit just steps apart in Philadelphia, but how much do you really know about Independence Hall and the Liberty Bell?

As the United States celebrates its 250th anniversary, we explore the history of Independence Hall, the meeting place of the Second Continental Congress and the Constitutional Convention, and the site forever connected to the Declaration of Independence and the founding of the United States.

We also dig into the fascinating history of the Liberty Bell: its enormous size, famous inscription, how it got its name, and the surprising story behind that iconic crack.

Along the way, we uncover some American history trivia involving George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, John Hancock, the Continental Army, the U.S. Postal Service, and even the appearances of Independence Hall on American currency.

🇺🇸 How much of this history did you already know? Tell us in the comments, and let us know which American landmark we should cover next.

We’re reacting to The Fat Electrician’s incredible breakdown of Operation Praying Mantis, the 1988 confrontation that turned into one of the most significant U.S. Navy surface actions since World War II.

After the USS Samuel B. Roberts struck an Iranian mine in the Persian Gulf, the United States launched Operation Praying Mantis. What followed was an intense day of naval combat involving Iranian oil platforms, warships, A-6 Intruders, missile exchanges, and the USS Enterprise.

Along the way, we react to the history, the unbelievable moments, the humor, and the sheer scale of what happened in just a matter of hours.

Student loan repayment is becoming a serious problem at hundreds of colleges across America.

In this episode of MX3 Podcast, we dig into new federal data showing that 500 colleges and universities have student loan nonpayment rates of 40% or higher. We look at where these problems are concentrated, why many for-profit career and trade schools stand out in the numbers, and what happens when borrowers leave school with debt they struggle to repay.

We also discuss examples involving career-training programs, federal student aid, borrower outcomes, and the accountability rules designed to determine when schools should lose access to federal funding.

The bigger question: When students borrow money they cannot repay and schools continue receiving federal dollars, where should accountability fall?

💬 Join the conversation in the comments. Should colleges face stronger consequences when large percentages of their former students cannot keep up with their federal student loans?

America captured a German U-boat during World War II, saved it while it was sinking, discovered an Enigma machine and secret documents aboard, kept the entire operation hidden from Germany... and eventually put the submarine in Chicago.

In this episode of MX3 Podcast, we react to The Fat Electrician's incredible telling of the capture of U-505. What began as a dangerous hunt for a German submarine became one of the most fascinating naval operations of World War II.

From American sailors boarding a damaged submarine packed with scuttling charges, to the desperate effort to keep it afloat, the intelligence discovered aboard, and the remarkable journey that eventually brought U-505 to Chicago, this story gets crazier the deeper it goes.

Retirement isn't just about how much money you've saved. It's also about how much money is still going out the door.

In this episode of MX3 Podcast, we break down 12 expenses and financial decisions that could deserve another look before or during retirement. From auto and life insurance to credit card debt, home repairs, vehicle warranties, precious metals, timeshares, direct deposit, and even bathroom renovations, we discuss which ideas make sense and which ones we aren't completely sold on.

We also get into a bigger question: Should you still have a mortgage, car payment, or high-interest debt when you retire?

Some of these recommendations could save money. Others might cost money upfront in hopes of preventing a much larger expense later. And a few sparked some disagreement between us.

💬 We want to hear from you: If you're retired or preparing for retirement, which expenses would YOU cut first? And do you believe your house should be completely paid off before you retire?
