    Abduly Noted

    05/08/2026 | 1h 10 mins.
    Today we discuss Abdul El-Sayed's tiny margin of victory in Michigan in contrast to polls that predicted a landslide, as well as the sorry state of the Democratic establishment and what these results tell us about the November election. Plus, the remarkable story out of the UK regarding fabulist Cambridge Professor Jason Arday, which grew out of a report on supposed plagiarism in his work, and Simon & Schuster's shame in publishing antisemitic author Susan Abulhawa.

    Pirro Pressure

    04/08/2026 | 1h 5 mins.
    Today we discuss Trump's ire with Jeanine Pirro for dismissing charges of vandalism of the reflecting pool after the prosecution fell apart, which dovetails with the almost comic nature of his ongoing flip-flop on Iran strikes. Plus, Abdul El-Sayed's probable win in the Michigan primary vote and the increased marginalization of Jews in the democratic party, the antisemitic hate crime spike in New York, and how this year's Met Gala reflects these trends.

    Gain of Fauci

    30/07/2026 | 1h 11 mins.
    Our old friend Jim Meigs is back to break down Anthony Fauci's appearance on the hill and the recent revelations from his personal diaries, and to revisit the COVID era through the prism of current knowledge - the lab leak theory, gain of function research, and the atmosphere of fear of criticizing the public health establishment.
