Title says it all…
I am not for the war in Iran. However, we are in it now and I will always back My country. Ted saying he hopes Iran wins is completely a disgrace to your country. You don’t have to support the war you don’t have to like it. But to wish for them to win you’re a joke.
Ted, let John talk. Stop interrupting him. Stop the babble.
John is awesome. Always polite, even when he disagrees. I could listen to him all day. He thanks people for even the smallest donation. He doesn’t over talk Ted. Ted, don’t like him so much. He’s the lefty that seems like he wants peace, but only the peace he thinks is ok. I tolerate Ted. John and his take on things is the reason I listen. Thanks John.

Two-host political analysis show delivering fast-paced, provocative takes on domestic and international news. Episodes span geopolitics (Middle East power dynamics, US policy), energy markets, technology, and media narratives, often juxtaposed with guest experts and occasional audience Q&As. A hallmark is combative banter between Ted Rall and Jamarl Thomas, tempered by informed guests and a willingness to tackle controversial topics with humor and skepticism. Noteworthy are scholarly context insertions (e.g., ancient religion discussions) and a habit of weaving pop culture into hard-edged geopolitical critique. The format and tone suit listeners who want sharpened takes, quick pivots between topics, and a populist, anti-establishment framin... more
