Show Notes

Welcome to Tuesday, April 14, 2026, broadcasting live from the Safety FM studios in Orlando, Florida. We are bringing you the raw, unfiltered truth across the multiverse.


Here is what is making headlines today:


  • Geopolitics & The Iran Blockade: The U.S. military has officially begun its naval blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, targeting vessels entering and exiting Iranian ports. Just hours after the blockade took effect, President Trump claimed the "right people" in Iran called and wanted to work on a deal.


  • Global Leaders: A bizarre feud is escalating between the Vatican and the White House. Pope Leo XIV stated he is not afraid of the Trump administration after the President went on a True Social rant calling the Pope "weak on crime" and "terrible on foreign policy". Over in Europe, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has fallen in a landslide election, ending his 16-year grip on power.


  • The World of the Weird & Tech: A tech startup called "Just Like Me" has launched a controversial digital AI avatar of Jesus Christ, charging believers $1.99 a minute or $49.99 for 45 minutes to chat with the Savior. Meanwhile, Meta is developing a 3D AI-powered avatar of Mark Zuckerberg, trained on his voice and mannerisms, to act as a virtual stand-in for employee meetings.


  • Pop Culture & Domestic News: A DoorDash driver went viral after delivering McDonald's directly to President Trump at the White House, where they discussed her $11,000 tax return savings. In Washington, Representative Eric Swalwell has resigned from the U.S. House of Representatives following sexual assault allegations. In the courts, a federal judge dismissed President Trump's $10 billion defamation lawsuit against the Wall Street Journal over their reporting on Jeffrey Epstein.


The Main Story: The Myth of the "Overnight" Safety Consultant How happy are you with your career choices? Do you look back and regret getting involved in safety? Today, we pull back the curtain on the safety profession. We talk about the people who get randomly "chosen" for the safety role just because they've been doing something else in the organization. We also tear into the myth of the "overnight sensation" safety consultant—reminding everyone that those overnight success stories usually have 30 to 40 years of quiet, unseen grinding behind them. On the flip side, we call out the self-proclaimed "world-class" consultants who get invited to a company once and are never asked back because they can't carry a conversation and lack actual subject matter expertise.


We leave you with a challenge: If the keys to the industry were handed to you, what would you change? And more importantly, would you have the guts to go out there and potentially flop in front of the world to make it happen?
