The boys talk about our Democrats and how they keep falling below our already-low expectations. These Democrats are still lost on the DHS and ICE issue, but who knows what concessions they will extract, if any, during this shutdown. CNN also released new polling that says the Democratic base is becoming more “far left” while Americans' perception of the party is that they are “too liberal”. The boys break it down and discuss why it doesn't carry the electability concerns that people want you to think.

AOC goes viral. Conservative Twitter melts down. And almost no one bothering to scream about it actually understands what she said.This clip is me walking through the language the left actually uses, because if you don't understand how they define their terms, you don't understand anything they're doing.The entire controversy revolves around one word: whiteness.Conservatives heard “whiteness” and translated it into skin color. That is not how the modern left uses the term. In leftist theory, whiteness is tied to private property ownership. That's the foundation. The left defines capitalism as private property ownership. Everything else flows from that.In their framework:* Capitalism created racial hierarchy through the ownership of human beings as property.* “White” became the category associated with the ownership class.* “Black” became the category associated with the owned class.* Racism is understood as a systemic byproduct of that property structure.* Systemic racism is the continuation of that structure.You don't have to agree with it. I don't. But if you're going to fight something, you should at least know what it is.Decode The Left with Karlyn Borysenko is a reader-supported publication.

Big week. Big call. Bigger game. After parting ways with Thomas Frank, Spurs have moved quickly and appointed Igor Tudor as the new head coach. And he walks straight into it. A North London Derby first up. Today we're breaking down: • Why the club made the change now • What Tudor actually brings tactically • His track record at Marseille, Lazio and Juventus • Whether this is a short-term firefighter move or something more ambitious • And how on earth you prepare for Arsenal in your first week on the job Is this a reset. Or just another roll of the dice? The timing is bold. The fixture is brutal. But sometimes chaos is exactly what a derby needs. Get your thoughts in the comments. Is Tudor the right man. And what would a “good” result even look like this weekend?

TBT to the Summer games in Paris.  Lots of sports and not enough "expertise". 

If you're a sports fan, a winter fan, or an Olympics fan, this is a great time of year. I've been watching the Olympics—especially the Nordic skiing events, since cross‑country skiing is one of the activities I really enjoy. The United States has had some impressive results, including Ben Ogden winning a silver medal, Jessie Diggins earning a bronze, and several other standout performances. It's inspiring to see everything come together for athletes who have spent years working toward their goals.But talk about pressure. So much comes down to one day, one event, one performance. That's a tremendous amount of stress. It's not just a physical challenge but a mental one as well, especially for those favored to win or in contention for a medal. I just watched Jessie Diggins earn her medal while skiing with bruised ribs and collapsing at the finish—as she often does. Commentators described her ability to “tune out” distractions, “channel” pain, and “focus” on exactly what she needs to do. All of this highlights the mental side of performance.Today on Experience by Design, we welcome a guest who specializes in that mental side—specifically, the electrical impulses and brain states we experience during different types of activities. In his new book, Life Explained: Chasing 10 Hertz, Dr. Izzy Justice explores neurohacks that reduce brain frequency, enhance sensory input, and create more mindful experiences. Izzy discusses his research on brainwave frequencies, especially the “magic” 10 Hz state in which sensory input is amplified and cognitive function peaks.Dr. Justice explains how trauma and panic can impact athletes during competition, particularly in sports where unexpected challenges can arise. But these principles extend far beyond athletics—we also explore how they apply to creativity in business, focus in education, learning, and everyday tasks.We also talk about the importance of translating academic findings for public audiences. Izzy emphasizes the need for actionable language and accessible frameworks for managing brain states, and why greater education is essential for helping us regulate our own brain activity, reduce the noise around us, and reach that 10 Hz state to create more mindful experiences.

Sam Ackerman talks Super Rugby, Winter Olympics and the T20 World Cup.

Host Ruben Navarrette has a timely and critically important conversation with his old friend of nearly 40 years, Arnold Torres, a Sacramento CA-based policy analyst, political commentator & Spanish-language radio host. As a lifelong observer of politics and immigration -- and the politics of the immigration debate -- Torres is horrified by what he is seeing take place in Minnesota, which has been invaded by federal ICE agents.  He has three things he desperately wants to talk about with his old friend: the fact that the federal government is abusing its power in Minnesota and other places; the necessary conversation that he thinks needs to take place about state's rights and the 10th Amendment provides the mechanism to push back against federal overreach; and the pathetic lack of leadership being served up by Latino elected officials, who are busy hiding from this crisis impacting the community they claim to represent. Navarrette agrees with Torres, except where he doesn't. Then, as usual with these two, sparks fly.

Elias Makos is joined by Meeker Guerrier, Commentator at Noovo and RDS, and Sue Smith is a Montreal journalist and broadcaster. 10 people are dead and 25 others are injured following a mass shooting inside a B.C high school yesterday afternoon. The SPVM released its 2025 results yesterday, and Police Chief Fady Dagher says the data is clear: Montreal is safe. The United States hockey squad will sleep in the Athlete’s village for the entire tournament, embracing the dorm-room lifestyle for two weeks. Team Canada will visit the village for two days - but then go live in a five-star hotel once the games actually begin. Who’s got the better Olympic spirit? In what should have been a celebration of an olympic medal for a Norwegian athlete, turned into a beg for forgiveness live on air.

Meghan Markle faces fresh online ridicule after unveiling a new black-and-white image for her As Ever brand, with critics accusing her of cosplaying Audrey Hepburn — and others comparing her to Inspector Gadget. Prince Harry is also mocked after being announced as a keynote speaker at a major privacy conference, fueling questions about his standalone appeal. Behind the scenes, sources say tensions are flaring again over Meghan's social media posts featuring glimpses of their children, reopening old wounds about privacy and control. Commentators pile on claims that Meghan is copying Princess Catherine's fashion playbook, while PR experts argue Harry is stuck between duty and Hollywood, struggling to manage optics in a world that doesn't allow selective visibility.Palace Intrigue is your daily royal family podcast, diving deep into the modern-day drama, power struggles, and scandals shaping the future of the monarchy."Crown and Controversy: Norway" is covering the trial of Marius Borg Høiby as the Norwegian Royal Family is faced with multiple scandals of their own.Check out "Palace Intrigue Presents: King WIlliam" here.

Newly released U.S. Department of Justice documents reveal a far deeper and longer-running relationship between Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein than previously acknowledged, including emails exchanged well after Andrew publicly claimed he had cut ties. The correspondence shows Epstein being invited to Buckingham Palace for “lots of privacy,” discussions about meeting women, financial contacts described as “super flush with cash,” and warm exchanges continuing into 2011. The files also include emails involving Sarah Ferguson requesting emergency cash, a controversial photograph now circulating online, and renewed scrutiny over Andrew's failure to cooperate with U.S. investigators. Commentators warn the revelations reopen questions about palace oversight, accountability, and whether King Charles has gone far enough in sidelining his brother — with some arguing only a future King William will fully sever Andrew from royal life.Palace Intrigue is your daily royal family podcast, diving deep into the modern-day drama, power struggles, and scandals shaping the future of the monarchy."Crown and Controversy: Norway" is covering the trial of Marius Borg Høiby as the Norwegian Royal Family is faced with multiple scandals of their own.Check out "Palace Intrigue Presents: King WIlliam" here.

Things have got worse for Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor - as fresh Epstein files show how deeply he was involved with Jeffery Epstein. Photos of Andrew crouched on all fours and touching an unidentified woman have been released. The British Prime Minister's suggested Andrew go to the U.S.senate to explain himself. Royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams told Mike Hosking that Keir Starmer has toughened his line. He says some of Andrew's emails with Epstein occurred when he had previously claimed publicly he hadn't been in touch. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
