3.0 out of 5 stars from 21 ratings
  • Ads on ads

    I really wanted to hear the interview with Steven Hassan, but the advertising totally chokes out the show and renders it unlistenable, like everyone is saying. Why even have a show if you’re going to let it sound so bad?

  • Too many ads

    Great content but hard to listen to because it’s overloaded with ads that disrupt the flow of the conversation. Much more ads than most podcasts have.

  • Needs improvement

    Interesting guests, but the commercial interruptions are abrupt, frequent, and long enough to render the podcast unlistenable.

  • Yes, "The Truth" is not worthy of your attention. In agreement that they are pieced together from other podcasts. And the NUMBER of commercials, "Wow"!

  • repackaged imperialism

    “[China] has taken away the power and hierarchy associated with monastic dominance but it hasn’t changed the lives of most Tibetan people in any fundamental way.”

    “It’s not a program of cultural genocide.”

    White scholar dispels western propaganda on Tibet. Tibetans should be thankful that the PLA liberated them from their own backwards culture.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Trump’s IRS Settlement & The 'Anti-Weaponization' Slush Fund Controversy
Q: What would you do in DC to actually improve results for kids?
Platner suggested a combination of federal resource support with listening to teachers and frontline workers, arguing that funding must reach classrooms and that policy should be informed by those who work directly with students.
Burnham Launches Byelection Campaign
Q: Should we take that argument seriously? Is it just a gimmick?
Louisa Munch provides nuanced left-wing context, suggesting Burnham's Manchester-centric approach could have both symbolic and practical implications, while noting the need to scrutinize the details behind any pledges.
The Scandal of The Century? Hondurasgate Explained
Q: But which of these do you think is the most important for understanding what kinds of things he's trying to do in order to secure his return to the presidency next time around?
David Adler argues that Juan Orlando Hernandez is largely a pawn for bigger players, with the real leverage lying in international actors like Israel and various political operatives who would coordinate to pressure or influence outcomes, including potential pardons, to secure favorable conditions for a broader geopolitical project.
The Most Powerful Man You’ve Never Heard Of
Q: What makes Demis Hassabis stand out in the AI race compared to other leaders like Altman or Musk?
The host argues Hassabis's background as a scientist-entrepreneur and his long-running safety-focused leadership at DeepMind position him as a stabilizing, long-term thinker who has driven foundational science as well as practical safeguards.
Iran Deal? | Israel’s Escalation in Lebanon | Will Trump Invade Cuba?
Q: What is the current status of negotiations in the region and how credible is the diplomatic track with Iran?
The hosts and Omar Baddar describe a shaky, contradictory landscape where diplomacy is publicly claimed to be ongoing while military actions and sanctions persist, suggesting there is no cohesive, credible strategy and that domestic political pressures influence the trajectory more than a clear international plan.
