  • Awful production

    I like the show but I'm convinced this podcast is a social experiment to see how many people notice the horrible audio mixing.

    A kid with no professional equipment could do better.

  • Informative and Hilarious

    A must listen on my playlist. Really funny, and a great way to start your day.

    Just one thing though…please balance the volume. Ads are loud enough but then once the episode resumes it’s a whisper

    Haven’t listened to hasans podcast in a while. He’s one of my favorite podcasters. I cannot express how angry and how disappointed I am to see that Deepak Chopra, who is listed in the Epstein files is being featured on this podcast. Why are we elevating these monsters. I don’t care that You acknowledge this in the beginning of the podcast. You should not have aired this. It’s disrespectful to the victims who are still being re-traumatized every day to elevate someone who ever associated with Je... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Getting SPICY with Mehdi Hasan
Q: What is the media's role in shaping perceptions of Iran and Gaza according to Mehdi Hasan?
Mehdi Hasan argues that media often labels or sanitizes inflammatory language, normalizes Islamophobia, and plays a role in shaping public support for war by not clearly labeling actions as war crimes.
Oz the Mentalist Breaks Hasan’s Brain
Q: What role does memory play in a successful performance?
Memory is the core of the trick; you design the experience so the ending memory is the one you want people to remember, and you build the path there from the beginning.
Oz the Mentalist Breaks Hasan’s Brain
Q: What differentiates mentalism from magic?
Mentalism is the mind-focused branch of magic, rooted in psychology, structure, and memory manipulation, rather than supernatural powers.
Fighting The Crypto Cult with Ben McKenzie
Q: What is the white paper by Satoshi Nakamoto and why does it matter in the crypto debate?
The white paper originated Bitcoin in 2008, authored by Satoshi Nakamoto (identity unknown). It framed a peer-to-peer digital cash system, but the interview stresses that the way crypto has evolved—especially its use in crime and MLM-style schemes—has diverged significantly from that original vision, making regulation and critical scrutiny essential.
A Deeply Unserious Britain-America Summit with Riz Ahmed
Q: What does the Rishi Sunak moment mean politically for the South Asian diaspora?
It highlights that mere representation isn't enough; what matters is whether those leaders are actively changing systems and policy to impact the communities they represent.
