Episode Details

We're in the final stretch of 2025, and I can't wait to put this shitty year behind us. If you remember back around a year ago, Trump promised he'd end the Russian war again Ukraine in a day, after taking office again. Well here we are, a year later and he hasn't. But he's still kissing up to Putin, siding with him over Zelinksyy and Ukraine and selling out western Democracies to push Putin's authoritarian agenda. I figured today would be a good day to refresh our memories about Trump's entanglements with Russia and its dictator.

So we'll go back to January of 2021 for my interview with Craig Unger about his then-new book AMERICAN KOMPROMAT.

Then I thought we'd look back a decade... actually, 10 years ago yesterday. It was Dec 28, 2015 for a chat with my old friend, Joel Silberman, who was a media strategist, consultant to politicians and celebrities and so much more, Joel Silberman. Joel joined me for a weekly segment when we'd cut through the media bullshit. And 10 years ago, there was plenty of it, but nowhere near what we're dealing with today.
