Jo welcomes comedian, SiriusXM host, and author John Fugelsang for a brutally honest—and frequently hilarious—conversation about America's relentless cruelty, the billionaire boner bill, and why the GOP's Bible-thumping is pure performance. With his new book coming out August 19th (preorder it now), Separation of Church and Hate: A Sane Person's Guide to Taking Back the Bible from Fundamentalists, Fascists, and Flock-Fleecing Frauds, Fugelsang digs into the white supremacy at the core of U.S. immigration policy, the hypocrisy of politicians who wrap themselves in Christianity while gutting healthcare and nutrition for millions, and why “the cruelty is the point.”Jo and John don't hold back: they call out the media's cowardice, the cult of personality around Trump, and the Democrats' chronic inability to fight fire with fire. Fugelsang shares how his own upbringing—by ex-clergy parents—shaped his view of faith, and why nobody who actually reads the Bible could square it with today's right-wing politics. There are dick jokes, there's righteous anger, and there's a guide for anyone who's tired of watching religion used as a weapon against the most vulnerable.Subscribe and Follow Jo:https://linktr.ee/jojofromjerz Hosted on Acast.

Plus, Julie shares thoughts from her latest Substack, Tobacco Is a Sacred Medicine—a reflection on ceremony, colonization, and reclaiming Indigenous relationships with plants and power.

From his audacious theft of a Confederate steamship to his fearless confrontations on enemy territory, Smalls' story is a testament to courage, determination, and foresight. Then finally, John jokes with TV's Frank Conniff about music, TV shows, the massive "No Kings" protest, and Trump's birthday celebration.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Julie and Simon join John to unpack the ICE raids in L.A.—why they're not just an immigration issue but an Indigenous one. They dig into the disturbing forced removal of Senator Alex Padilla from a Kristi Noem event and what it says about power, race, and who gets silenced. They also break down the White House's budget cuts to Tribal colleges, while the Yurok Tribe makes history reclaiming over 47,000 acres of stolen land. Plus, Julie shares the story behind her latest Substack essay and her online run-in with “Three Grumpy Bastards.” Spoiler: it's a classic case of deflection when Indigenous folks speak hard truths.

Join Stephanie Miller as she discusses the shocking arrest of Senator Alex Padilla to escalating U.S.-Iran tensions and the chaotic circus of California politics. She reflects on the legacy of Brian Wilson, the complexities of protest, and the urgent need to hold power accountable. Prepare for a rollercoaster of emotions, insightful commentary, and a powerful call to action. With guests John Fugelsang and Frangela!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

John's monologue focuses on Sen. Alex Padilla who was forcibly removed and handcuffed at a press event held by DHS Secretary and unfortunate hat-wearer, Kristi Noem. He also discusses Trump's speech at Fort Bragg where he carefully selected good looking Republican officers to be in the audience cheering and jeering and obeying all his commands. Then, democratic strategist Ameshia Cross returns to speak about Israel striking Iran's nuclear sites and killing some top military officers. Also Trump's big, costly birthday parade. Next, democratic strategist Max Burns is back to chat about the latest protests against ICE which have spread to nearly 20 other US cities, leading to more arrests and escalating tension. And finally, listeners call in to talk about John's Substack and this weekend's NO KINGS protests.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Guests: Glenn Kirschner, John Fugelsang & Frangela

John remembers legendary Beach Boys creator Brian Wilson who passed away at age 82. Brian was a pioneer in music, known for his creative control and use of the recording studio to create unique sounds. He also discusses Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth being grilled as he testified before the Senate Appropriations subcommittee on the armed forces. Then, he jokes with Bob Cesca about the lame excuses from Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt about their treatment of ICE protesters in L.A. and what proof Trump has that they are being paid to protest. Next, John welcomes back former pastor Desimber Rose and theologian Dillon Naber Cruz (AKA the God Squad) and they discuss what the bible says about being gay and the treatment of foreigners. Then lastly, he chats with legal analyst Dr. Tracy Pearson about the legality of the ICE protests and the difference between martial law and habeas corpus.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Michael Steele is joined by some of his favorite past guests for a special live stream barbershop episode to wrap up the podcast before it goes on hiatus. Elie Mystal, John Fugelsang, Karen Hunter, Lucy Caldwell and Molly Jong-Fast join the podcast to discuss current events and politics. Plus, Michael and his guests take questions from the live audience.

John talks about the continued ICE Protests and overreach from Trump. As 700 Marines enter Los Angeles, a federal judge has blocked Gov. Gavin Newsom's emergency motion to stop Trump's deployment of thousands of national guardsmen. He also discusses RFK Jr. who fired the entire CDC panel tasked with providing vaccine guidance, calling the move a necessary step to restore trust in American medicine. Then he interviews Phyllis A. Coven who served as the seventh Citizenship and Immigration Services Ombudsman (CIS Ombudsman) from 2021-2023. Previously, Ms. Coven served as District Director for the two largest U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) District Offices located in New York and Los Angeles. She also served as Director of the Office of International Affairs under the former Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS), where she was responsible for the operations of the INS's overseas offices and refugee and asylum divisions. Next, John speaks with the Executive Director of the Muslim Community Network - Husein Yatabarry on Donald Trump's latest travel ban. Twelve nations now face full travel bans for their citizens: Afghanistan, Myanmar, Chad, the Republic of Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Haiti, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan and Yemen. And finally, Comedy Daddy Keith Price jokes with John and listeners on Trump's latest mishigas.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Congresswoman Stacey Plaskett joins Michael Steele on the podcast. She describes the frustration of hearing people say that Democrats aren't doing anything, despite their efforts in the House and the Senate. Rep. Plaskett also discusses not being allowed to vote for Speaker as a representative for the Virgin Islands, how Medicaid cuts would hurt Americans, Senator Joni Ernst's bizarre comments about people dying and David Hogg's disruption of the DNC. Join Michael Steele, Molly Jong-Fast, Elie Mystal, Lucy Caldwell, John Fugelsang and Karen Hunter for Part II of our barbershop livestream on Tuesday, June 10th at 10am ET on The Bulwark's YouTube page. 

John remembers the life of musician Sly Stone who passed away at the age of 82. Then he discusses the clashes between Los Angeles protestors and law enforcement which is now into a 5th day - delighting Trump with TV shots to scare the rubes. At least 500 Marines have been deployed into Los Angeles, joining a large number of National Guard who are already on location with nothing to do. Then, he welcomes back legal analyst Dina Doll to give her perspective on the LA protests and the White House response. Next, comedian and primatologist Natalia Reagan checks in to give her first hand account of what happened to her at the L.A. protests. And then finally, comedian Rhonda Hansome chats with John and listeners on current news and trending stories.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

John talks about the ongoing breakup of Elon and Don. He also tells the story of Luka Strobel - a transgender man in South Carolina who reported experiencing harassment and being arrested after using a women's restroom at a bar. Despite having permission from the bar to use the women's restroom and having an ID that matched his gender marker, he reported being spied on, called anti-trans slurs, and forcibly removed from the bar. He was charged with public intoxication and disorderly conduct, although he stated he was sober and did not resist the police. Then, he interviews Dr. Anahita Dua and they chat about RFK Jr's demolition of science and health in government programs. And winding it up, John jokes around with comedy panel Frank Conniff, Frank Vignola, and Agunda Okeyo on trending topics, pop culture, and the insanity of the government at large.

In this episode, Simon and Julie sit down with John to talk about the murder of Jonathan Joss, a two-spirit Indigenous actor who was shot and killed on his own property. They say he deserved better. This wasn't just homophobia—it was also about race, and ignoring that - erases part of what made him a target. They also dig into the Department of Education calling New York's Native mascot ban “discriminatory.” At the same time, the military is renaming ships that honored brave people like Harvey Milk and Dolores Huerta—while racist mascots are somehow still on the table. And they close with Leonard Peltier's call to change the “American Indian Movement” to the “Indigenous Movement,” and what that shift could mean for first peoples.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Hold on tight! Stephanie Miller takes you on a no-holds-barred expedition through the tumultuous love-hate story of Donald Trump and Elon Musk. Prepare for Stephanie's signature blend of uproarious political commentary, surprising twists, and a candid look at the challenges facing American democracy. With guests Joe Walsh, John Fugelsang, and Frangela!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Dems can't eat enough popcorn as John jokes about the huge fight between Musk and Trump. Each of them own and operate their own social media network, and today they used those networks to bitch and moan about each other in an epic clash of douchebags. Trump threatened to pull Musk's government contracts, Musk named Trump as part of the Epstein files and the sole reason for its delayed release. Then, he interviews John Della Volpe who is the Director of Polling at the Harvard Kennedy School's Institute of Politics, where he has led research initiatives on American youth since 2000. His work focuses on understanding the attitudes, values, and behaviors of young Americans and their impact on politics and public life. A contributor to NBC, MSNBC, and The New York Times, John is the author of the critically acclaimed book Fight: How Gen Z is Channeling Their Fear and Passion to Save America. He has launched the Speaking with American Men (SAM) Project, a first-of-its-kind initiative to re-engage young men who feel increasingly alienated from civic life and abandoned by civic institutions. It was borne from post-2024 election data showing a dramatic 12-point shift, from 2020, to Republicans among young men (18-29) and a clear warning that too many feel unheard, unrepresented, and culturally dismissed.The launch includes the release of an urgent new report titled Young Men in America Today: New Research on Their Opinions, Media, Challenges, and How Progressives Can Win them Back.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

John discusses Dept. of Education Secretary Linda McMahon targeting Columbia's accreditation saying that the school's leadership "acted with deliberate indifference towards the harassment of Jewish students on its campus" after Hamas' attack on Israel. He also talks about Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth who has ordered the Navy to strike the name of pioneering gay rights activist Harvey Milk from one of its ships, orchestrating the change as Pride month celebrations take place. Then, Bob Cesca is back to joke about Elon and Trump's squabbles. Next, It's the God Squad with Desimber Rose and Dillon Naber Cruz discussing the intersection of religion and politics. And then Dr. Tracy Pearson jokes with John and the crew about the legal troubles of the Trump Administration.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

John discusses Elon Musk who took to his social media cesspool to complain about the Big Beautiful Budget the Trump administration is trying to ram through Congress. Musk was joined by other Republicans, most of whom actually voted FOR the bill, in denouncing its cost to the federal deficit. Then, Professor Corey Brettschneider is back to talk about Trump's controversial attack on the Harvard Law Review—twisting the Civil Rights Act of 1964 to target student editors—and his shocking showdown with his one-time allies in the Federalist Society. Plus, the Supreme Court might soon allow religious opt-outs from school lessons about LGBTQ+ rights and could even greenlight religious charter schools, eroding the wall between church and state. Then lastly, John welcomes the gal who founded the blog Hullabaloo - Heather Digby Parton to chat about Republican infighting and more.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
