  • Garbage Audio

    Good journalist. But your production quality is trash. Upgrade your mic and learn the basics of audio recording and editing. Total buzz kill.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Why Did Zohran Win & What Does it Mean?
Q: Why do you think the Democratic Party establishment distanced itself from Mamdani?
The Democratic Party establishment distanced itself from Mamdani due to fears of losing control over the party and its alignment with donor interests, despite Mamdani's ability to inspire younger voters.
Why Did Zohran Win & What Does it Mean?
Q: What do you think made Zohran Mamdani's candidacy resonate with voters?
Mamdani's campaign resonated because he addressed the real struggles of working-class New Yorkers and provided a hopeful, actionable message.
JD Vance Confronted at Turning Point about Israel and Massie; Stephen Miller's Wife Screams "Racist" and Threatens Cenk Uygur with Deportation; Rio's Police Massacre: 120 Dead

Q: JD Vance, do you condone large private corporations such as Palantir hoarding data caches on US citizens?
