Matt Bennett — co-founder and executive vice president of the center-left think tank Third Way — joins the Chuck Toddcast to offer a pragmatist's anxious assessment of what the Mamdani-led DSA surge in New York actually means for the future of the Democratic Party. Bennett's central worry is whether the New York primaries represent a genuine "Tea Party moment" for the left — which he frankly admits would be scary for Democrats — though he takes some comfort in the fact that the three districts Mamdani candidates won are extraordinarily deep blue, and argues the national Democratic electorate simply isn't as extreme as the Republican base, making the party much harder to hijack than the GOP was. Bennett draws a crucial distinction in how these races were actually won: Mamdani himself won on affordability, but many of his endorsees won on Israel, where anti-Israel sentiment has become the number-one voting issue for New York progressives. He's careful but direct on the antisemitism question — not all of the far-left are antisemites, he says, but they are increasingly making common cause with them, pointing to the antisemitic abuse Dan Goldman faced during his campaign — and argues that while antisemitism won't ultimately eat the Democratic Party, it absolutely needs to be contained. Bennett is sharply critical of the self-inflicted wounds of progressive governance (decriminalizing shoplifting was a disaster, he says), and argues the broader problem is that left-coded "performative nonsense" fundamentally changed how voters see the party — that the country rejected both Biden's progressive overreach and the left's woke cultural politics, and that Biden's real mistake was bragging he was the most progressive president since FDR. The conversation broadens into a rich strategic discussion about 2028 and the soul of the party. Bennett argues that parties are ultimately defined by their nominee, so Democrats will be fine if they simply get that choice right, and frames the Michigan Senate primary — where he's skeptical Abdul El-Sayed can beat Mike Rogers — as a fascinating case study in the tension between charisma and electability. He makes the case that charisma genuinely matters (Mamdani and El-Sayed have it), that "boring doesn't work" in modern politics, and that the biggest open question for 2028 is whether a center-left candidate can successfully run as a genuine change agent — because the status quo is extremely broken, and no one can win by running to preserve it. Bennett offers some encouraging signs for his wing of the party: Iowa is drifting back toward Democrats, James Talarico is a genuinely strong candidate in Texas, and candidate quality still matters enormously. He and Chuck dig into why Palestine became the defining progressive cause rather than the plight of the Uighurs, how social media and the collapse of civics education have sealed people into ideological bubbles, and why the word "socialism" means Norway to some voters and Cuba to others. Bennett argues that Netanyahu has personally turned off a generation of young Americans to Israel — and that if Israelis remove him, it could serve as a genuine relief valve for Democrats — and closes with a series of pointed predictions: Schumer should make clear soon that he won't run for leader again, Warren and Murphy are too far-left-coded to unify the party, both wings could actually rally around Brian Schatz as leader, and the Mamdani story, for all the panic it's generated, is ultimately a minor earthquake rather than a major fracture.

Chuck Todd opens with a programming note—the ToddCast moves to a Monday/Thursday schedule for July and August—before digging into the fallout from Zohran Mamdani-endorsed candidates sweeping New York's primaries. Chuck unpacks who powered the wins (younger, white progressives), argues that Mamdani's affordability focus rather than his endorsements was the real galvanizing force, and examines how Israel has become a litmus test on a left that, like MAGA, increasingly has little patience for the pluralism Chuck calls the heart of the American experiment—warning that when every issue becomes a litmus test, disagreement turns into something punishable. He weighs whether this is a singular New York moment or a broader realignment in which two uncompromising factions come to dominate both parties, with Abdul El-Sayed's Michigan Senate bid shaping up as the next big test. From there, Chuck turns to Trump blowing a chance to show voters he cares about affordability by refusing to sign a housing bill that already has veto-proof majorities—and how the president keeps making it nearly impossible for the GOP to govern heading into a brutal midterm stretch he's brought on himself. Finally, an alarming look at Pete Hegseth's overt politicization of the military: the firing of respected leaders like Chris Donahue, purges that appear to target officers for their race, gender, what they know, or their willingness to push back on illegal orders, the removal of the JAGs and the Pentagon press corps, and why Chuck argues that whoever Hegseth wants out may be exactly who the country needs leading it next.

The Iran MOU is signed, and Trump is coming home to a full-scale Republican revolt — with GOP senators calling it the worst foreign policy blunder in decades. Ben breaks down JD Vance's embarrassing White House briefing, where he lied about Iran's nuclear program being destroyed and insisted Trump was "just joking" about blaming him if the deal falls apart. Meanwhile, Ukraine launched its biggest-ever drone attack on Moscow, Israel is ignoring the agreement entirely and keeps striking Lebanon, and Trump's approval on the economy has hit the worst numbers ever recorded for a sitting president. Plus, every living former president showed up to celebrate the opening of the Obama Presidential Center in Chicago — and one very notable name was not on the guest list. Ben, Brett, and Jordy discuss all this and more!

Chuck takes a wide-ranging look at what he sees as the long-term impact of the Trump administration's foreign policy. He argues that the United States has weakened many of the alliances and institutions that underpinned American influence for decades, raising questions about whether key partners in Europe, Asia, and the Middle East can still rely on Washington as a stable security partner. In Ask Chuck, listeners ask about Democratic impeachment scenarios, presidential war powers, the future of the Republican Party, and other political questions shaping the road to 2028.

Chuck opens the podcast with a wide-ranging look at what he sees as the long-term impact of the Trump administration's foreign policy. He argues that the United States has weakened many of the alliances and institutions that underpinned American influence for decades, raising questions about whether key partners in Europe, Asia, and the Middle East can still rely on Washington as a stable security partner. Then Chuck is joined by Eurasia Group founder Ian Bremmer for an in-depth conversation about the aftermath of the Iran war, the future of the Middle East, and the growing geopolitical uncertainty facing America's allies. Bremmer explains why he believes the conflict has fundamentally altered regional dynamics, creating competing power blocs led by the UAE and Israel on one side and Saudi Arabia and its partners on the other. He also discusses China's opportunities in the region, the future of Iran's regime, and why the biggest long-term consequence of the conflict may be an accelerated global shift away from oil and gas. The conversation then turns to Russia and Ukraine, where Bremmer delivers a stark warning: Vladimir Putin may now represent the world's most dangerous geopolitical risk. He explains why he is increasingly concerned about Putin's isolation, decision-making, and willingness to escalate as the war continues. In Ask Chuck, listeners ask about Democratic impeachment scenarios, presidential war powers, the future of the Republican Party, and other political questions shaping the road to 2028.

Todd Ricketts — Chicago Cubs co-owner and founder of Freespoke, the search engine that labels news sources with media bias ratings — joins the Chuck Toddcast for a wide-ranging conversation that bridges the increasingly intertwined worlds of media, technology, and professional sports. Ricketts makes the case that when people are given genuinely good information from across the ideological spectrum, they tend to arrive at good answers — and that Freespoke's mission is to present all sides and then get out of the way, rather than letting ad sales determine what news you see. He pushes back on the idea that the market alone can solve the data privacy crisis, arguing data may eventually need to be regulated like a utility but that nothing changes until there's a major "event" that creates real public groundswell. Ricketts is candid about Freespoke's challenges — paywalls remain a real obstacle, the left/right labeling is imperfect and done by outside groups, and the political landscape itself is shifting in ways that scramble the traditional categories . He observes that podcasts have become a primary news source because people clearly hunger for long-form content with nuance, that politicians are now visibly afraid of giving long answers because they might get clipped, and that legacy media still doesn't seem to understand why its audience has migrated elsewhere. The second half pivots into the business of running a baseball team, and Ricketts brings the same straight-talking pragmatism to MLB's looming economic crisis. He argues you cannot sell a salary cap to MLB owners without genuine revenue sharing, because if the league itself isn't competitive then everyone eventually loses — including the owners writing the biggest checks. Players currently take roughly 48% of revenue, a number he expects to climb to around 52% in the next deal, and Ricketts is honest that half of MLB's franchises are still essentially mom-and-pop operations even as private equity money is rapidly entering the sport. He talks about the difficulty of running any sports team in 2026 because fans genuinely feel like they own the franchise, why ownership groups are increasingly building entire entertainment districts around their ballparks to control the fan experience end-to-end, and the painful broadcast rights question every team is wrestling with: fans have cut the cord, the old TV economics no longer work, and ownership has to be flexible with new broadcast partners even as they ask themselves whether season ticket holders should be entitled to free access to every game. Ricketts closes by laying out what would qualify as a disappointing season for the Cubs — a sober assessment from an owner who has watched the economics of his sport, and the media landscape his business depends on, both transform at the same time.

Chuck Todd opens with what he calls the unmistakable arrival of a "YOLO caucus" in the Senate — a growing number of congressional Republicans who are simply done capitulating to Trump, evidenced by John Thune publicly declaring there's no need to "weaponize" the DNI position and by the broader sense that the non-Trump part of the GOP is openly preparing to move on. He argues Trump is doing everything possible to accelerate his own lame duck status: he's politicizing America's 250th anniversary in ways that genuinely alarm vulnerable Republicans, he failed to engage any of the former presidents in the 250th planning, and he's creating Marie Antoinette-style "let them eat cake" optics by celebrating himself at a moment of real economic pain for ordinary Americans. Trump's treatment of CNN's Kaitlan Collins was outrageous, his cranky behavior with the press is a tell that things aren't going well, and his decision to formally nominate Todd Blanche for Attorney General has essentially zero chance of confirmation — Blanche has burned his bridges in the Senate and the doomed January 6th weaponization fund was reportedly his idea in the first place. It's almost as if Trump is begging to put a neon "I'm a lame duck" sign on the White House. Chuck then turns to California, where ballots are still being counted at a pace that he says is actively eroding public trust in the democratic process itself — the state desperately needs to find a way to count faster — and notes that CA-06 was drawn as a safe Democratic seat but the top two finishers right now are both Republicans, while Spencer Pratt looks safer in the LA mayoral race than Steve Hilton does in the governor's race. He closes with a fascinating analysis of the Graham Platner situation in Maine, where Janet Mills' decision to leave her name on the ballot has created a Nikki Haley-style protest vote opportunity for nervous Democrats — Mills didn't bow out in disgrace so her floor is high, and if she pulls 25% or more in the primary, Chuck predicts very real conversations about replacing Platner will begin. The number to watch is ME-02: if Platner underperforms there, it's the clearest red flag that a candidate Democrats once viewed as a slam-dunk pickup is now in serious trouble. Finally, Chuck answers listeners’ questions in the “Ask Chuck” segment and spends a few minutes reflecting on the life of his grandmother who passed away this week. Predict the action all the way through the finals.

Chuck Todd opens with what he calls the unmistakable arrival of a "YOLO caucus" in the Senate — a growing number of congressional Republicans who are simply done capitulating to Trump, evidenced by John Thune publicly declaring there's no need to "weaponize" the DNI position and by the broader sense that the non-Trump part of the GOP is openly preparing to move on. He argues Trump is doing everything possible to accelerate his own lame duck status: he's politicizing America's 250th anniversary in ways that genuinely alarm vulnerable Republicans, he failed to engage any of the former presidents in the 250th planning, and he's creating Marie Antoinette-style "let them eat cake" optics by celebrating himself at a moment of real economic pain for ordinary Americans. Trump's treatment of CNN's Kaitlan Collins was outrageous, his cranky behavior with the press is a tell that things aren't going well, and his decision to formally nominate Todd Blanche for Attorney General has essentially zero chance of confirmation — Blanche has burned his bridges in the Senate and the doomed January 6th weaponization fund was reportedly his idea in the first place. It's almost as if Trump is begging to put a neon "I'm a lame duck" sign on the White House. Chuck then turns to California, where ballots are still being counted at a pace that he says is actively eroding public trust in the democratic process itself — the state desperately needs to find a way to count faster — and notes that CA-06 was drawn as a safe Democratic seat but the top two finishers right now are both Republicans, while Spencer Pratt looks safer in the LA mayoral race than Steve Hilton does in the governor's race. He closes with a fascinating analysis of the Graham Platner situation in Maine, where Janet Mills' decision to leave her name on the ballot has created a Nikki Haley-style protest vote opportunity for nervous Democrats — Mills didn't bow out in disgrace so her floor is high, and if she pulls 25% or more in the primary, Chuck predicts very real conversations about replacing Platner will begin. The number to watch is ME-02: if Platner underperforms there, it's the clearest red flag that a candidate Democrats once viewed as a slam-dunk pickup is now in serious trouble. Then, Todd Ricketts — Chicago Cubs co-owner and founder of Freespoke, the search engine that labels news sources with media bias ratings — joins the Chuck Toddcast for a wide-ranging conversation that bridges the increasingly intertwined worlds of media, technology, and professional sports. Ricketts makes the case that when people are given genuinely good information from across the ideological spectrum, they tend to arrive at good answers — and that Freespoke's mission is to present all sides and then get out of the way, rather than letting ad sales determine what news you see. He pushes back on the idea that the market alone can solve the data privacy crisis, arguing data may eventually need to be regulated like a utility but that nothing changes until there's a major "event" that creates real public groundswell. Ricketts is candid about Freespoke's challenges — paywalls remain a real obstacle, the left/right labeling is imperfect and done by outside groups, and the political landscape itself is shifting in ways that scramble the traditional categories . He observes that podcasts have become a primary news source because people clearly hunger for long-form content with nuance, that politicians are now visibly afraid of giving long answers because they might get clipped, and that legacy media still doesn't seem to understand why its audience has migrated elsewhere. The second half pivots into the business of running a baseball team, and Ricketts brings the same straight-talking pragmatism to MLB's looming economic crisis. He argues you cannot sell a salary cap to MLB owners without genuine revenue sharing, because if the league itself isn't competitive then everyone eventually loses — including the owners writing the biggest checks. Players currently take roughly 48% of revenue, a number he expects to climb to around 52% in the next deal, and Ricketts is honest that half of MLB's franchises are still essentially mom-and-pop operations even as private equity money is rapidly entering the sport. He talks about the difficulty of running any sports team in 2026 because fans genuinely feel like they own the franchise, why ownership groups are increasingly building entire entertainment districts around their ballparks to control the fan experience end-to-end, and the painful broadcast rights question every team is wrestling with: fans have cut the cord, the old TV economics no longer work, and ownership has to be flexible with new broadcast partners even as they ask themselves whether season ticket holders should be entitled to free access to every game. Ricketts closes by laying out what would qualify as a disappointing season for the Cubs — a sober assessment from an owner who has watched the economics of his sport, and the media landscape his business depends on, both transform at the same time. Finally, Chuck answers listeners’ questions in the “Ask Chuck” segment and spends a few minutes reflecting on the life of his grandmother who passed away this week.

Chuck Todd walks through a primary night that was, in his words, a really good night for Democrats — and one that may have just answered whether 2026 is shaping up as a genuine blue wave. The night's biggest single story came out of Iowa, where Zach Lahn pulled off a stunning upset of Randy Feenstra in what Chuck characterizes as a "MAHA vs. MAGA" race — Trump endorsed the establishment Feenstra and lost, which Chuck predicts will drive the president absolutely nuts. Iowa Democrats also got a substantial ticket boost when Josh Turek blew out Zach Wahls in the Senate primary, and combined with the surprisingly strong gubernatorial candidacy of Rob Sand, Iowa is now the cleanest test case in the country for whether the political wind has truly shifted — a right-leaning state where the politics are visibly in flux. Chuck flags that Lahn can probably be painted as too far right in a general, that having "congressman" as your first name has become a real disadvantage in 2026, and that the night was an unambiguous positive for Democrats nationally. He also walks through results elsewhere: New Jersey's seventh district will see Tom Keane (still mysteriously MIA from his own campaign) face Rebecca Bennett; South Dakota's gubernatorial race is headed to its first-ever runoff after four candidates each cleared 20%, and Deb Haaland is on track to become the first Native American woman governor in U.S. history. The conversation then turns to California, where Chuck warns it will be days before we have full primary results but where turnout is already on pace to exceed 2022. He cautions viewers about the inevitable early "red mirage" from the mail-vote curve, predicts Hilton has enough of a lead over Steyer that he likely survives, and argues Xavier Becerra would much rather face Hilton than Steyer in a general — though a potential scandal is looming over Becerra that could reshape the whole race. Chuck argues a Becerra-Hilton race would be a conventional Democrat-versus-Republican contest, that Steyer has spent $500 million across his last two campaigns and still has a low ceiling because he's created a genuine sense of voter exhaustion, and that the single most fascinating race in the state right now is CA-06 and Kevin Kiley. The Los Angeles mayoral picture is clarifying too: Karen Bass and Spencer Pratt appear set to advance, which Todd argues is exactly what Bass wanted — it will be far easier to turn Pratt into a Trump acolyte in a general election than to face the formidable Nithya Raman. He notes that Matt Mahan became known as "big tech's candidate" in ways that genuinely hurt him, and closes with one to watch in Montana, where independent Seth Bodner is quietly hoping the Democratic candidate eventually bows out so he can consolidate the anti-incumbent vote into a real challenge. Finally, Chuck presents his ToddCast Top 5 list of instances that Republicans have rebuked Donald Trump in his second term, and answers listeners’ questions in the “Ask Chuck” segment.

Then, Orange County Mayor Jerry Demings — the former Orlando police chief turned local executive who is now running for governor of Florida — joins the Chuck Toddcast for a candid conversation about the challenges of being a Democrat in modern Florida and the lessons his unusual career path (accountant, then cop, then mayor) brings to executive leadership. Demings reveals that Governor Ron DeSantis personally threatened to remove him from office over his opposition to ICE operations in Orange County, and uses that experience as the entry point to a broader discussion about what's gone wrong with American law enforcement. He argues you cannot solve police shortages by lowering recruiting standards — exactly what he says ICE did when it ramped up so quickly that screening and training went out the window, with the predictable consequence that ICE has now begun poaching trained officers from state and local departments. Demings makes the case that we have to get criminals off the streets but it has to be done lawfully, that state law enforcement should not be doing immigration work, and that being elected sheriff as a partisan position creates real tensions because the actual responsibilities of the job aren't partisan at all. He pushes back on the idea that he's running to be a "performance politician" and frames his candidacy as wanting to bring competent local-government experience to a state level that he says is suffering from leaders chasing viral moments rather than delivering services. The conversation turns to the structural challenges facing Florida and the deeper question of why Democrats can't win statewide in a state that's growing more diverse by the year. Demings argues Florida's underpaid state legislators simply don't attract quality talent, that many longtime Florida Democrats have left the party out of pure frustration, and that the party's central task is to restore basic public belief in government's capacity to function. He's willing to give DeSantis credit for diversifying and growing Florida's economy, but argues the state needs to find efficiencies rather than continually burdening local governments with expenses it should be covering itself — and points to slashed state mental health funding as a direct driver of the violent crime he sees in his community. Demings is sharp on Florida's climate exposure, arguing the state is building in places it absolutely should not be building, and that hurricane-hardened construction standards need a major overhaul, He flags the NAACP's call for athletes to avoid schools in remapping states as the kind of extreme response that extreme government actions inevitably provoke, and warns that the politics of division are starting to genuinely threaten Florida's tourism economy — meaning the state's longtime economic engine may finally be running into the consequences of the culture wars its leaders have spent the past decade fueling.

Orange County Mayor Jerry Demings — the former Orlando police chief turned local executive who is now running for governor of Florida — joins the Chuck Toddcast for a candid conversation about the challenges of being a Democrat in modern Florida and the lessons his unusual career path (accountant, then cop, then mayor) brings to executive leadership. Demings reveals that Governor Ron DeSantis personally threatened to remove him from office over his opposition to ICE operations in Orange County, and uses that experience as the entry point to a broader discussion about what's gone wrong with American law enforcement. He argues you cannot solve police shortages by lowering recruiting standards — exactly what he says ICE did when it ramped up so quickly that screening and training went out the window, with the predictable consequence that ICE has now begun poaching trained officers from state and local departments. Demings makes the case that we have to get criminals off the streets but it has to be done lawfully, that state law enforcement should not be doing immigration work, and that being elected sheriff as a partisan position creates real tensions because the actual responsibilities of the job aren't partisan at all. He pushes back on the idea that he's running to be a "performance politician" and frames his candidacy as wanting to bring competent local-government experience to a state level that he says is suffering from leaders chasing viral moments rather than delivering services. The conversation turns to the structural challenges facing Florida and the deeper question of why Democrats can't win statewide in a state that's growing more diverse by the year. Demings argues Florida's underpaid state legislators simply don't attract quality talent, that many longtime Florida Democrats have left the party out of pure frustration, and that the party's central task is to restore basic public belief in government's capacity to function. He's willing to give DeSantis credit for diversifying and growing Florida's economy, but argues the state needs to find efficiencies rather than continually burdening local governments with expenses it should be covering itself — and points to slashed state mental health funding as a direct driver of the violent crime he sees in his community. Demings is sharp on Florida's climate exposure, arguing the state is building in places it absolutely should not be building, and that hurricane-hardened construction standards need a major overhaul, He flags the NAACP's call for athletes to avoid schools in remapping states as the kind of extreme response that extreme government actions inevitably provoke, and warns that the politics of division are starting to genuinely threaten Florida's tourism economy — meaning the state's longtime economic engine may finally be running into the consequences of the culture wars its leaders have spent the past decade fueling.

It's Fun Day Monday on The Majority report. *Fun Day is not in any way a promise of fun in any shape or form. On today's program: Once again, Iran has ended negotiations with the U.S. as a result of Israel expanding operations in southern Lebanon. Wali Khan, a multimedia journalist covering state violence, joins the show to discuss the protests at Delaney Hall Ice Detention Center in Newark, New Jersey. Jose Luis Granados Ceja, journalist covering Latin America at Drop Site News, joins MR to discuss updates on the U.S.'s blockade on Cuba and the potential of a military invasion. In the Fun Half: Senator Chuck Schumer speaks at the Israel Day Parade in NYC, where he unironically argues that a Jewish state is necessary because of the fear of Jews being violently expelled from their homes, even as Israel carries out the same policy against Palestinians. Historian Yuval Noah Harari says if after 2,000 years the "Jews simply become the Romans, what was the point?". Dave Rubin fails miserably on his Jubilee Surrounded episode. All that and more.

Susie is moonlighting in the motion capture industry, and even though it's technically top secret. she shares the challenges of tech modeling and why she thinks her and Sarah's ability to follow instructions makes them succeed on the Challenge. Sarah describes an unconventional way some families are deciding what last name their baby gets, and Susie is mad about it (even though she thinks she would crush it). Sarah thinks every celebrity is now into gardening all of the sudden. Everything is coming up roses for Sarah because she is binging gardening content. It's like Green Acres over here. Susie just knows that apparently there's a problem with peat bogs. Sarah is also obsessing about the magic of Temple Grandin, why she was more in tune with the interior lives of animals, and why she thinks she has the same traits. Despite our query last week, we learned people do, in fact, eat pigeons, but we're pretty sure they're gross. Sarah shares some of the latest slang words of young people, and we learn once again that we are, in fact, very old.Brain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:Get $30 off your first box - PLUS free Croissants for life - when you go to https://wildgrain.com/braincandy to start your subscription today.Get up to 80% OFF with fast and free shipping on everything at https://www.wayfair.com April 25th through the 27thTDM-RESERVATION: 1.

Moriah Wilson could do just about anything. As a kid she became a world-class skier, and then as an adult she became one of the best gravel bike racers in the world. In May of 2022, she was in Austin, Texas, for a race when she was brutally murdered in her friend's home. The investigation was swift and the killer was quickly identified BUT NOT IMMEDIATELY CAUGHT BECAUSE THIS INSANE PERSON STOLE A PASSPORT AND SKIPPED THE COUNTRY. An international manhunt ensued and because this person IS A COMPLETE IDIOT, they were caught. But then THEY ESCAPED AGAIN. Anyway, none of this is the point. Moriah's murder was tragic and senseless, but this is one of the best docs we've seen in a long time. Get ready to learn Moriah's story and keep the tissues close, fam!

It's News Day Tuesday on The Majority Report. On today's program: Donald Trump has secured an illegal $1.7B slush fund from the Treasury that can be used however the president chooses and comes with ZERO oversight. At a Senate Budget Hearing for the DOJ, Senator Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) gets under acting Attorney General Todd Blanche's skin simply by pointing out that he was Donald Trump's personal lawyer less than two years ago. Adam Serwer, author and staff writer at The Atlantic, joins the program to discuss the dismantling of the Voting Rights Act. In the Fun Half: More from Senator Chris Van Hollen's exchange with acting AG Todd Blanche at the Senate Budget Hearing. Carl Quintanilla mentions that Donald Trump has been day trading which sends Jim Cramer in to an apoplectic shock, I guess out of fear of reprimand from his Supreme Leader. Donald Trump claims the requested $1B for his ballroom is actually not for the ballroom, it's for the security around the ballroom. The ballroom is of course at no expense to the taxpayer, unless you count the $1B of tax dollars that are being used to build the ballroom. Zohran Mamdani takes a jab at Ronald Reagan during his speech announcing the construction of a city-run grocery store in the south Bronx. It appears that Artificial Intelligence is really doing a number on Jim Breuer's brain. Meghan McCain proves again that she is an awful person as she attacks Nicholas Kristoff's piece in the New York Times on the horrible abuse that Palestinian prisoners were subjected to at the hands of Israeli guards.

Susie watched the Hulk Hogan documentary, and explains why he reminds her of Johnny Bananas, why he is not the hero we hoped for, and the physical pain of being a "fake" wrestler. We learn about a scandal in the equestrian community where a horsegirl was shot by a trainer, and how, despite the odds, we're kind of on the man's side. What. We learn about the men who are upset that they were circumcised when they were babies, and the drastic means they're taking to get their skin to stretch back to its original state. We find out who is the "second most dangerous driver in New York City," and how he got a speeding ticket every other day for a year without any other consequences. Plus, Susie shares the history of the disposable diaper (you're welcome).00:00 - Springing Hope and Backyard Racetrack Dreams09:42 - Unpacking Hulk Hogan's Controversial Character and Legacy24:26 - The Shocking Hawthorne Hill Horse Girl Scandal36:30 - Men's Extreme Journey for Foreskin Restoration 51:14 - Unjust Immunity for NYC's Speeding Officer55:42 - From Cloth to Convenience: The Diaper's Journey01:08:22 - How to Support the Brain Candy Podcast Brain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:Get $30 off your first box - PLUS free Croissants for life - when you go to https://wildgrain.com/braincandy to start your subscription today!Get 25% off the Fullest Hair Kit—that's supplements plus their hair serum duo— and free self-care gifts when you visit https://nutrafol.comDownload HILY Dating App from the App Store or Google Play, or visit https://hily.comTDM-RESERVATION: 1.

Welcome back to the Majority Report On today's program: As Donald Trump's war in Iran sinks deeper into a quagmire, Jesse Watters struggles to frame it in a way that reassures his audience before their 7 o'clock bedtime. Marco Rubio says the goal of the war on Iran is to get back to the way things were before the war in Iran. Rory Johnston, oil market researcher and founder of Commodity Context, joins the program for a conversation about oil shock and the ramifications of the war in Iran. Ari Berman, national voting correspondent at Mother Jones, joins the show to discuss the Supreme Court dismantling the Voting Rights Act. Sam calls Kathy Hochul's office live on air to demand she agree to Zohran Mamdani's proposal to raise taxes 2% on the ultra-rich. You should also call Hochul at 518-474-8390.  In the Fun Half: Matt Taibbi has lost his defamation suit. K-file posts unearthed footage of Graham Platner in 2002 showing him getting kicked out of a George W. Bush rally in 2002 for screaming "don't attack Iraq". The Pod Save America guys suggest that DNC chair Ken Martin had hired a personal friend to do the 2024 autopsy and that he did such a horrible job that it couldn't be released - thus the cover up. Joe Rogan and billionaire Chamath Palihapitiya discusses taxes, and it goes exactly how you would expect. All that and more.

On this episode of the MeidasTouch Podcast, Ben, Brett, and Jordy break down the rapidly escalating chaos in the Middle East after Donald Trump's latest Strait of Hormuz announcement backfires spectacularly, with Iran firing on U.S. ships, striking a key UAE port, and pushing the region to the brink of full-blown war again—while Trump's allies flood the airwaves with “Baghdad Bob”-style spin insisting everything is under control. Back at home, a federal judge steps in to block yet another controversial Trump demolition project in Washington, D.C., as new reporting exposes troubling coordination between the DOJ and former Attorney General Pam Bondi tied to the Epstein files cover-up. The episode also dives into Marjorie Taylor Greene recent speech rebuking Trump, unpacks the real story behind the Spirit Airlines collapse amid soaring fuel costs, and more.

Ramit Sethi of I Will Teach You To Be Rich talks to Mikaela and Dave, both in their early thirties, parents of two young children, and earning an impressive $278,000 a year.

In this episode we uncover: • Their surprising net worth of nearly $1.5 million in their early thirties • Mikaela's struggle to replace workout leggings with holes, even when she can afford it • Dave's discomfort with his office chair despite working from home • The recent health scares that have frozen their spending decisions • Why Mikaela still views money through a lens of scarcity despite their wealth • The shocking realization of their actual household income versus their perception • The invisible labor dynamics in their financial management • Mikaela's childhood experiences with financial stress and lack of fun • How past trauma and family loss continue to influence their spending habits • The challenge of transitioning from a "hoarder's mentality" to enjoying their money • Their vision for a Rich Life that includes travel and personal well-being • Ramit's advice to ban the word "need" from their financial vocabulary ⏩ CHAPTERS (00:00:00) Introduction (00:03:08) Why they struggle to spend money (00:06:08) The impact of past health scares (00:14:00) What it means to be "frozen" (00:16:32) The origins of their frugal mindset (00:33:51) The shock of their true income (00:40:00) Rebuilding financial foundations (00:46:08) Mikaela's childhood and money lessons (00:52:19) The profound impact of family loss (01:06:00) Building an amazing relationship with money (01:14:38) How to get help from Ramit (01:16:40) Reimagining the concept of "need" (01:19:15) The value of Mikaela's time (01:27:00) The invisible labor in financial planning (01:31:00) Ramit's challenge for Dave to initiate fun spending (01:35:10) Setting boundaries for family finances (01:37:00) Defining their rich life together (01:44:30) Ramit's parting advice This episode is brought to you by: Facet | As of the date of this recording, Facet is waiving the enrollment fee for new annual members, and for my audience, Facet is offering $300 into your brokerage account if you invest and maintain $5,000 within your first 90 days.

It's Casual Friday   On today's program:   Conservative pundits are failing to keep it together as the Trump administration's support continues to crater to record lows. One example is Scott Jennings live on CNN swearing Meidas Touch's wunderkind, Adam Mockler.   Jeet Heer, national affairs correspondent at The Nation joins the program to recap the week's biggest stories. Topics include: The War in Iran, Trump's fixation on his own legacy, the buried DNC autopsy and more. For more from Jeet, check out his podcast "In the Time of Monsters".   Rep. Greg Casar (D-TX), chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus (CPC) joins the show to discuss the CPC's new Affordability Agenda.   In the Fun Half:   Pete Hegseth appears before congress as a part of the military's budget request hearings, and it does not go well for him. Hegseth implies the soldiers that survived the drone attack that killed 6 servicemembers were lying when they said that they had almost no support. Also at the hearing, Rep. Jason Crow exposes Hegseth recommissioning his personal attorney and now top adviser at the Pentagon Tim Parlatore, who also represents clients that are in line for promotion by Hegseth so that he could sidestep any venting process.   Senator Tim Scott (R-SC) goes on Fox to lie Kamala-style about how great the economy is. "You can just feel how good things are".   Senator Rick Scott (R-FL) takes a different approach to manipulating people around the economy. Rick says that the higher prices at the pump are worth it because now we are safer and can live in freedom.   Tim Pool's guest floats the idea that Ben Shapiro is running ads on Tucker Carlson's channel to capture his audience, but Tim shuts it down, saying it would be stupid and bad business—only to admit moments later that he's done the same thing to The Majority Report's channel.   All that and more.   To connect and organize with your local ICE rapid response team visit ICERRT.com The Congress switchboard number is (202) 224-3121.

On this episode of the MeidasTouch Podcast, Ben, Brett, and Jordy break down the chaotic fallout from the incident at the White House Correspondents' Dinner—and the Trump White House's stunningly tone-deaf pivot to pushing for a taxpayer-funded ballroom in its wake. The brothers also dive into Donald Trump's unhinged and defensive interview on 60 Minutes, which only made matters worse, as global tensions escalate with Russia openly signaling support for Iran—and world leaders increasingly mocking and questioning Trump's foreign policy judgment. Plus, Katie Phang takes legal action to force transparency in the Epstein files, setting up a major accountability fight with the Department of Justice. All that and more from Ben, Brett, and Jordy.

It's Casual Friday on The Majority Report On today's program: Donald Trump doesn't want to give a timeline for the war in Iran. "We we're in Vietnam 18 years...I've been doing this for six weeks" Pete Hegseth continues to whine about the lack of support from Europe for the U.S.'s pointless war. The State Department releases an official statement that states that the U.S. engaged in a war with Iran at the "request of Israel". Astead Herndon, editorial director at Vox, joins the program to discuss his new podcast, America, Actually, and recap the week's news. In the Fun Half: RFK, Jr. is caught manipulating medical studies during a senate hearing by a fellow Republican. RFK, Jr.'s data manipulation is never exemplified better than by his suggesting that trump has lowered drug prices by 600%. Dave Rubin is devastated by Virginia voting to gerrymander their state. Jillian Michaels issues an open call to people from the left to come on to her podcast for a debate and Sam accepts. Michael Knowles goes on a racist rant inspired by Ramy Youssef appearing alongside Elmo for Arabic heritage month. Somehow Knowles' impression of Elmo is far more offensive than his islamophobia. Donal Trump hosts a press conference where he claims to have had more people at his 2016 inauguration than attended Martin Luther King, Jr's March on Washington. After his rant he falls asleep for the rest of the press conference. All that and more.   To connect and organize with your local ICE rapid response team visit ICERRT.com The Congress switchboard number is (202) 224-3121.

It's Fun Day Monday on The Majority Report   On today's program:   Donald Trump's erratic behavior puts the ceasefire with Iran in serious jeopardy. The deputy foreign minister of Iran says that Trump is sabotaging the diplomatic path by saying one thing and then doing another.   U.S. Marines seize an Iranian-flagged ship in the strait of Hormuz in a violation of the ceasefire.   Daniel Levy, president of the U.S Middle East Project, former Israeli peace negotiator under Prime Ministers Ehud Barak and Yitzhak Rabin, joins the program to discuss his recent op-ed in The Guardian headlined: "What Benjamin Netanyahu and the Israeli right really mean when they invoke 'Greater Israel'   In the Fun Half   Former Obama staffer, Ben Rhodes explains the Obama administration's rationale on their Cuba policy and calls out Joe Biden for being so chicken shit that his inaction led to Trump's blockade that is killing people at this moment.   Zohran Mamdani offers his assessment on the current state of the Democratic party.   Podcast dummy Jillian Michaels invites podcast idiot Stephen Crowder on her show to compare NYC Mayor Mamdani to the Ayatollah of Iran.   Sam Harris also does an insane segment on his show about Mayor Mamdani, calling him a sinister theocrat.   We take a look at highlights from this past weekend's Michigan Democratic Party Endorsement Convention. Topics include Mallory McMorrow throwing herself a parade, Haley Stevens getting booed and COry Booker begging for a Michigan fist.   All that and more   To connect and organize with your local ICE rapid response team visit ICERRT.com The Congress switchboard number is (202) 224-3121.
