Halftime Shows, Fake Rebellion, and a Real Insurrection (1838)

Don takes listeners deep into the wildest Super Bowl LX Halftime Show breakdown you’ve heard yet: the Bad Bunny-led halftime spectacle at — complete with cameos from Lady Gaga and Ricky Martin, an all-Spanish set celebrating Puerto Rican culture, symbolic staging, and the cultural discussion that erupted afterward. Then Don pivots into Part 4 of the Insurrection Act series with a raw look at the 1838 Mormon War — an intense conflict in western Missouri between Latter-Day Saints and their neighbors that eventually escalated to battles like Crooked River and the infamous Missouri Executive Order 44 (“extermination order”), which authorized driving the Saints from the state. Two very different halves — one cultural, one historical — both told with Don’s signature commentary style.
