  • Mary Trump on Donald's Rapidly Declining Mental and Physical Health
    Feb 2 2026

    Mary Trump is an American psychologist and author. Her first book, Too Much and Never Enough: How My Family Created the World’s Most Dangerous Man which sold nearly one million copies on its first day of publication, is considered a serious game-changer in the 2020 U.S. presidential elections that Donald Trump lost decisively to Joe Biden. She is the author of two other New York Times bestsellers, The Reckoning, (2021), and a memoir, Who Could Ever Love You (2024). Mary holds a PhD in clinical psychology and a Master’s degree in English and Comparative Literature from Columbia University. She writes The Good in Us, a best-selling newsletter on Substack, and is the founder of Mary Trump Media and the Mary Trump Media YouTube channel.

    Mary and I discuss her Uncle Donald's rapidly declining mental and physical condition. And as always, Mary and I share more than a few good laughs!

  • Michelle Goldberg on Trump, Noem, Homan, Bovino and the Minneapolis Madness; the Crockett v Talarico Texas Showdown; and Why Repubs Are So Terrified of 'Wine Moms'
    Jan 28 2026

    Michelle Goldberg is an author and award-winning NY Times opinion columnist. Her first book, “Kingdom Coming: The Rise of Christian Nationalism,” was a finalist for the Helen Bernstein Award for Excellence in Journalism. After that, she wrote “The Means of Reproduction: Sex, Power and the Future of the World,” a book about global battles over gender and reproductive rights. And then in a departure from politics she then wrote “The Goddess Pose,” a book about wellness culture and the long Western fascination with Eastern spirituality. She is a contributor at MSNOW, and her work has appeared in publications including The New Yorker, The New Republic, The Nation and many others.

    Michelle and I discuss Trump, Noem, Homan, Bovino, DHS and the Minneapolis murders of Renee Good and Alex Pretti; the Democrats' Texas US Senate primary showdown between Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett and State House Rep. James Talarico; and why the right is so damn furious with liberal white 'wine moms'.

  • Rep. Angie Craig on her Senate Campaign, Renee Good's Killing, the DOJ's Cover-Up, the "Sons of Bitches" ICE "Goons", "Chickenshit" Republicans and More
    Jan 21 2026

    Angie Craig is the Congresswoman for Minnesota's Second Congressional District and is running for the state’s junior Senate seat being vacated by the retiring Tina Smith. In 2018, she flipped a district held by a Republican that a Democrat had only held twice since the 40s…committing herself to taking on the Trump administration’s policies that are hurting working folks in our country. In the Senate, her focus will be on lowering costs, keeping communities safe and fixing a broken Washington. If elected to the Senate, Angie would make history as the first gay U.S. Senator from Minnesota and first lesbian mother elected to the Senate.

    The Congresswoman and I discuss her Senate campaign, Renee Good's death and the DOJ's cover-up, the "sons of bitches" ICE "goons", Trump's chaos, "chickenshit" Republicans, flipping the House and Senate, and more. Don't miss this frank conversation about the war on democracy and the rule of law and what Democrats and voters must do to fight and win.
