Can’t tell20% confidence4 sourcesSep 13, 2026The speaker's unit in Iraq had zero casualties at their gate in the last three months.Said by CThe sources contain no information about the speaker's unit, its gate, or any casualty count for a three-month period, so the claim cannot be checked. The passage is the claimant's own undated anecdote from a podcast, and the extraction's 'unit' is a slight reframing of the post's 'my gate'.Can’t tell35% confidence5 sourcesSep 13, 2026U.S. military personnel in Iraq were required to complete a 15-6 investigation after engaging targets with weapons.Said by BThe sources describe AR 15-6 as the Army's general procedure for administrative investigations, and say CENTCOM investigations of civilian-harm incidents were mostly conducted under it, but none establishes a requirement for a 15-6 investigation after every weapons engagement in Iraq. The passage is the podcast host's anecdote about paperwork after one gunfight, which cannot corroborate the claim, and the claim's general 'required after engaging targets' framing goes beyond what the passage says.Can’t tell20% confidence6 sourcesSep 13, 2026In 2010, U.S. military personnel returning from a one-year deployment reported having only one gunfight during that period.Said by DThe claim is an anecdote from a podcast guest about a friend's unit returning in 2010 after a one-year deployment with only one gunfight. None of the provided sources (Reuters timeline, White House drawdown figures, NCBI deployment statistics, CRS casualty data, NBC and other coverage) records or addresses gunfight counts for any returning unit, and the passage itself is the claimant's own words, which cannot corroborate the claim.Reported in the post, not stated as its own.Can’t tell30% confidence4 sourcesSep 13, 2026Iraqi civilians transported fuel in 55-gallon drums using small white and orange vehicles.The claim is a personal anecdote from a podcast guest about one vehicle he saw during a deployment, and none of the sources covers that event or describes white-and-orange vehicles carrying 55-gallon drums. The sources show 2026 Iraqi fuel shortages with long lines, which gives context but does not confirm or refute the specific claim.Can’t tell40% confidence3 sourcesSep 13, 2026Brandon Herrera's Darwin Awards video is released on Pepperbox before it is released on YouTube.Said by CSources show Pepperbox hosts extended, uncensored Darwin Awards episodes and that some clips are exclusive to Pepperbox because YouTube restricts them, but none states that Pepperbox releases a video before YouTube or gives release timing as of 2026-09-13. The claimant's own passage asserts early release, but that is not evidence.Can’t tell20% confidence3 sourcesSep 13, 2026The speaker was hit by a car bomb while in a turret.Said by AThe only source for the claim is the claimant's own podcast passage, which describes being hit by a car bomb and blown back in his turret, but no independent source covers this speaker or event. The car-bomb and turret sources (Road to Baghdad, the Samarra VBIED podcast episode, and the Iraq speaker article) concern different people and incidents, so they neither confirm nor refute the claim.Can’t tell30% confidence5 sourcesSep 13, 2026Rich and Joe met in the military in 2005.Said by BThe only support for the claim is the podcast host's own offhand remark ('we met in the military, 2005 ish'), which cannot corroborate itself. None of the provided sources addresses how or when the podcast hosts Rich and Joe met, and the Rich/Joe names in sources 3, 5, and 8 appear to refer to different people.Can’t tell20% confidence6 sourcesSep 13, 2026The speaker held the rank of E-4 in the military in 2005.None of the sources identifies the podcast speaker or records their military rank in 2005, so the claim cannot be graded. The passage is garbled: the speaker says "I was a four PV two" (apparently PV2, which is E-2) and then "it was in e four", which may refer to someone else, and the passage is the claimant's own words and cannot corroborate itself.Can’t tell20% confidence4 sourcesSep 13, 2026The speaker's unit deployed to Iraq between 2006 and 2007.Said by AThe post says the speaker's unit was 'coming over in 2000 ah, six to seven,' which reads as 2006 to 2007, so the extraction is faithful. None of the sources identifies the speaker's unit, so they cannot confirm or refute its deployment dates; the sources describe other units that deployed in 2006-2007.Can’t tell30% confidence5 sourcesSep 13, 2026A social media account based in Russia posted a manifesto containing an actionable threat against a school in Buffalo, New York.None of the provided sources mention a Russia-based account posting a manifesto or actionable threat against a Buffalo school in 2026. The claim also departs from the passage, which describes an unnamed account and police saying it had sent 'information' several times, without mentioning a manifesto or an actionable threat, and the sources' Buffalo threat coverage concerns 2022 events.Can’t tell20% confidence5 sourcesSep 13, 2026The speakers own three fire trucks.Said by BNo independent source addresses whether the speakers own three fire trucks. The only support is the podcast's own episode title and listing ('Joe & Rich Got ANOTHER Fire Truck'), which repeats the claim and is not corroboration. Sources about fire trucks in Maine, Virginia and elsewhere concern different vehicles and owners, and the passage itself describes a single rescue vehicle with 'three of them now' left ambiguous.Can’t tell15% confidence6 sourcesSep 13, 2026The Buffalo Police Department threat management unit has received information from the same Russian-based account multiple times.Said by ANo source addresses the claimed Russian-based account or any repeated information from it reaching the Buffalo Police Department's Threat Management Unit. The sources only confirm that the unit exists (a Detective Division unit handling ERPO petitions), and the only support for the claim is the podcast speaker's own account, which cannot corroborate it.Reported in the post, not stated as its own.
