If you thought the political landscape couldn't get any weirder, the modern Democratic Party just said, “Hold my beer.” This week on True Thirty, Joey Dumont and Sean X put on their “Team Red” hazard suits and laugh at why the Left is ditching the polished Ivy League elites and replacing them with candidates who feel like they were recruited outside a dive bar at 2:00 AM.Here's what we are pouring into the blender today:* The Sex, Tattoos, and Seafood Special: Meet Graham Plattner, the Maine Democrat running for Senate. On paper, he's a combat veteran who farms oysters. In reality, he's a walking tabloid headline featuring an extramarital sexting scandal, a dark Reddit past, and an accidental Nazi chest tattoo that he claims he “didn't know” was a Nazi symbol. But instead of canceling him, the Left is rebranding him as a relatable “dirtbag Democrat” because apparently, standard background checks are a thing of the past.* The “Just Trust Us” Vetting Protocol: We pull back the curtain on the progressive activists who launched Plattner's career. When the Wall Street Journal asked them if they actually researched his background before throwing him into the race, they literally just laughed in the reporter's face. The new strategy for winning over working-class men? Find a guy who wears Carhartt, shares an oyster farm with his mom's restaurant, and hope nobody clicks past page one of his Google results.* Welcome to the MACA Wing (Make America Crazy Again): Then we track the shockwave hitting New York City politics, where a PhD student named Darializa Avila Chevalier (DAC) just annihilated the Democratic establishment. Her platform? Abolishing borders, defunding the police, seizing landlord property, and casually screaming “f*** Kamala Harris” on her social media timeline. Fox News talking heads are practically tripping over themselves to milk the content, and we are here for every single second of it.We don't make the news, we just laugh at it. Lock in, hit play, and let's get into it. This is a public episode. If you'd like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit www.truethirty.com/subscribe

Doug speaks with bestselling author Isaac Fitzgerald ahead of his appearance at the 15th Annual Nantucket Book Festival. Fitzgerald, whose award-winning memoir Dirtbag, Massachusetts earned the New England Book Award and who is also a familiar face from frequent appearances on The Today Show, joins Doug to discuss his new book, American Rambler: Walking the Trail of Johnny Appleseed. The conversation explores Fitzgerald's journey retracing the legendary path of one of America's most enduring folk heroes, the people and places he encountered along the way, and the deeper themes of adventure, identity, and connection that emerged from the experience. He also shares what readers can expect from his Nantucket Book Festival appearance and why stories rooted in exploration and human connection continue to resonate so strongly today.

American legend Johnny Appleseed was from here. He hailed from North Central Massachusetts, just a couple miles down the road from Isaac Fitzgerald, a contemporary writer whose first memoir “Dirtbag, Massachusetts” told the story of his misspent youth in the teenage pregnancy capital of the state. This week on Say More, Fitzgerald joins Anna Kusmer to discuss his new book, “American Rambler” which follows the footsteps of Appleseed from New England to Indiana, in search of nature, camaraderie, and some truths about America. Email us at saymore@globe.com. To read Isaac's piece in the Boston Globe, click here: The best rest stop in America is in Lancaster, Mass.
My guests this week are Kirk Deeter and Matt Supinski [27:19], authors of the amazing new book A Fishable Feast. They talk about great meals they've experienced in lodges around the world, but also about what they actually pack for the day when they are fishing on their own. And then what to enjoy after a day of fishing—what to drink, what meals to prepare to celebrate a great day or console yourself after a lousy day. And they even wax poetic (at least Matt does) about what a day on the water really means. It's a fun discussion and I hope you enjoy it. In the Fly Box this week, we have these questions and more: Should I put floatant on my CDC flies or should they ride below the surface? How will I get my flies deep enough now that tungsten beads are getting scarce and expensive? Should I get a moderate or fast-action rod for all-around fishing in Colorado? Can I use a surgeon's knot to connect nylon to fluorocarbon? I have been using tippet rings. How short can my shock tippet get before I need to replace it? Is the improved blood knot good for adding shock tippet? How do you know when a river's fish population is not worth your time? If I see trout swimming quickly, are they feeding when they do this? How much extra tippet do you carry when fishing?
"I say this all the time, and I'll say it again: the truth is a block of wood, and I know the sculpture I carve out of that block of wood looks different than the sculpture my mother carves out of that block of wood, right? But the truth — the block of wood — is what what happens, but the art we make out of that is up to us," says Isaac Fitzgerald, author of American Rambler: Walking the Trail of Johnny Appleseed.We've got Isaac Fitzgerald returning to the podcast. He's going to be at Powells on May 29, 7 p.m., in convo with Lidia Yuknavitch, and I'll likely be heading up the 5 to photo bomb them because Isaac has a new book out called American Rambler: Walking the Trail of Johnny Appleseed. It is published by Knopf. Great talk. We were buzzin', man. In any case, you know Isaac maybe from his bookish appearances on The Today Show, and he's also the author of the brilliant memoir Dirtbag, Massachusetts, a coming of age story.I liken American Rambler to a coming of middle-age story and as Isaac walks and drives in the footsteps of one John Chapman, better known as Johnny Appleseed. It's a book that deals with that squishy time as we crest into our forties and reckon with mortality as well as the greater disconnection we're collectively experiencing, which is why Isaac set out, largely on foot, to put his phone down and live in the world. His essay on walking for The Guardian, linked up in the show notes, very much informed and even catalyzed American Rambler.So Isaac is a pretty special dude. I love the posture he takes in the world. When I had lunch with Lidia before her live appearance on the show, we talked about how Isaac had jumped into the comments on a couple of our Instagram posts and Lidia asked me, “Is Isaac coming to this?”I said, “I don't think so. I mean he's in New York.”“It would totally be like him to just show up.”And I kinda love that idea. I want to make more of that effort myself.So in this episode we talk about: Putting the phone down Living in the world Walking 20,000 steps a day The tension between building community and withdrawing into solitude The scaffolding of the story How he was late to the arc of his own story Stories become what they're supposed to be How the truth is like a block of wood The black dog as literary device First lines And how On The Road informed American RamblerIsaac can be found on Instagram at isaac.fitzgerald and you can join his Substack list Walk It Off and learn more about him at his website isaacfitzgerald.net. He's also collaborated with the brilliant cartoonist Wendy McNaughton on two books about tattoos, Pen and Ink and Knives and Ink. Great stuff.If you like this episode, I would definitely check out Isaac's first appearance on Ep. 353. I'd also check out: Ep. 100 with Mary Karr Episode 200 with Nick Flynn Ep. 358: Erica J. Berry Ep. 472 with Melissa Febos Ep. 503 with Jason Brown

California Democrat Rep. Eric Swalwell, once a leading candidate for governor, has announced his resignation from Congress after multiple women came forward with serious allegations of sexual assault and misconduct. Just days after suspending his gubernatorial campaign, Swalwell posted a statement admitting to "mistakes in judgment" while denying the most serious claims against him. The House Ethics Committee had already launched an investigation, and bipartisan pressure was mounting for an expulsion vote. In this video, we break down the timeline of the scandal, the specific accusations, Swalwell's weak response, and what this says about accountability in Washington. Another swamp creature was exposed and forced out. Subscribe for more unfiltered coverage of political scandals and corruption. We also cover: Rep. Tony Gonzales (R-Texas) resigns from Congress.

Two years later and nothing's really changed… except the stories got worse. One Leg Faded returns with The Dirtbag Chronicles—bad decisions, wild moments, and yes Dirtbag is at it again!
Damon, Damo, and Aaron are joined by AZ2 Makel Jackson, a listener-turned-guest and active duty Navy Aviation Maintenance Administrator. The episode kicks off with Damo discussing question submissions for an upcoming episode, board eligible results, a discussion on Maintenance Master Chiefs, and military vs. civilian education. The hosts then dive into Makel's background, tracing his journey from the south side of Chicago to Houston and ultimately to the Navy. They debate pizza, discuss what drew him to enlist, and break down his boot camp and A School experiences. The conversation turns to his biggest misconception about the fleet, his first dirtbag encounter, and what it really means to “play the game.” Makel shares the first moral lesson he learned at his first command and reflects on how mentorship shaped his early career. The group discusses Full Power Navy and how Makel navigated the decision to stay or separate. Damon asks about balancing being liked versus being respected as Makel prepares to transition to sea duty. The crew explores whether junior Sailors correct each other for uniform infractions, debate which host would be the toughest at DRB, and unpack what kills morale the fastest. Makel shares his take on the biggest problem the Navy is facing and the best thing about serving. The conversation also covers Navy bucket lists, whether new accession Sailors expect too much when it comes to quality of life, and what actually motivates Sailors today. The group discusses good leadership, the Chief's Mess, and the unique structure of leadership in aviation squadrons. The episode closes with Makel's #DoBetter, his Hero of the Week, and his picks for favorite episode and favorite guest. These topics and more are covered in this episode.

Mary Carole McDonnell was the CEO of a successful Burbank production company, behind true crime hits like I Married a Murderer. But behind the scenes, the company was hemorrhaging cash. To keep the lights on and the payroll moving, the 73-year-old allegedly stepped into a role of her own making: the secret heir to the McDonnell Aircraft fortune. In this episode of True Crime To Go, John and Jamie break down the brazen 2017–2018 fraud scheme that allegedly siphoned nearly $30 million from financial institutions. We detail how she used a non-existent $80 million trust fund to bait banks, the federal indictment that followed in 2018, and her current status on the FBI's Most Wanted list. --For early, ad free episodes and monthly exclusive bonus content, join our Patreon!

Jeffrey Epstein's scheme to “pay” the girls he abused was never about compensation—it was a calculated legal shield designed by his attorneys to fabricate the appearance of consensual transactions. By handing traumatized, vulnerable minors a few dollars, Epstein built a defense to later claim they were “prostitutes” instead of victims, a narrative he deployed the moment law enforcement closed in. Even now, figures like Alan Dershowitz cling to that script, minimizing abuse with grotesque technicalities such as “she was 17 and 10 months,” and invoking a deeply compromised “investigation” as proof that nothing illegal happened. The arrogance of this defense relied on the assumption that the public would swallow whatever excuse powerful men delivered, and that the legal system would bend to protect them.The tragedy and absurdity deepen when Epstein defenders—including political cultists and media apologists—continue repeating these talking points like gospel. They treat loyalty to figures like Donald Trump as a shield against accountability, ignoring the permanent stain of Epstein's crimes and the devastation inflicted on survivors. They mistake consequence culture for persecution, sacrificing credibility and dignity to defend men who would never defend them. When the political winds shift and Trump inevitably fades, these enablers will be left carrying the shame alone, remembered not as brave contrarians but as fools who stood on the wrong side of history, defending the indefensible while victims fought for the truth.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
