  • Don’t need donors

    Mumdani proves you can win without the support of Israel’s lobby. When will establishment Dems realize no amount of money, no media strategy, and no consultancy can make up for their poor character and inconsistent values. One solution: CHANGE! Look to Mumdani for inspiration and actually change. Or keep losing.

  • Sound Levels

    The sound balance between your voice and recorded interviews is immense. The interview sound levels are at least 50% louder. That makes listening to your podcast very challenging. When my volume level is set to listen to you comfortably its very jarring to suddenly experience a significantly louder interviewee. So much so that its uncomfortable. Please maintain constant sound levels.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Glenn Answers Your Questions On: Looming AI Threats; Controversy Over "Pluribus," Epstein Revelations, CAIR's "Terrorist" Label, and More
Q: What do you think this means for the future of the First Amendment? Can free speech survive the next generation if so many young people have these views?
The trends are worrying as the perception of speech is changing, particularly among younger generations who conflate hate speech with violence. Education and dialogue on the importance of free speech are crucial to combat this.
Glenn Answers Your Questions On: Looming AI Threats; Controversy Over "Pluribus," Epstein Revelations, CAIR's "Terrorist" Label, and More
Q: What is the end goal for the anti-Muslim rhetoric being ramped up, such as Randy Fine's recent post, and Texas and Florida's labeling of CAIR as a terrorist organization?
Part of the strategy seems to be to distract from issues surrounding aid to Israel and to unify support against a common enemy, which in this case are Muslims. It serves to maintain support for Israel by misdirecting frustration over local issues towards a scapegoat.
Glenn Answers Your Questions On: Looming AI Threats; Controversy Over "Pluribus," Epstein Revelations, CAIR's "Terrorist" Label, and More
Q: Do you share the concern that as artificial intelligence grows where powerful, so do the risks and harms it poses to underage users?
There are valid concerns about AI, particularly when it comes to free speech and how underage users are affected by regulations surrounding social media. This is often exploited to create fear around monitoring and legislation that can infringe on rights.
Glenn Answers Your Questions on an Un-American Candidate in TX, Escalating War with Venezuela, Trump's Loyalty to Miriam Adelson, and More
Q: Trump took more money from Elon Musk than from Miriam Adelson, yet Trump is willing to insult and cut ties with Musk very publicly, but he acts submissively with Adelson and Netanyahu. Do you have any thoughts as to why?
The Adelsons have been long-time major donors to Trump and a fundamental part of the pro-Israel lobby that wields significant influence over U.S. policy. Trump's ties with Musk are less consequential in comparison to his reliance on the pro-Israel funding.
Glenn Answers Your Questions on an Un-American Candidate in TX, Escalating War with Venezuela, Trump's Loyalty to Miriam Adelson, and More
Q: Hey Glenn, can you talk about the disgusting Texas 31st candidate, Valentina Gomez, and what responsibility of any of the conservative movement has in distancing herself and others like her?
Valentina Gomez has become a spectacle in social media by making extremely racist remarks towards Muslims, often receiving applause from a segment of the Republican party. This reflects a troubling trend where the party may tolerate or enable such figures to gain political capital by stoking outrage.
