The Trump administration struggles to justify its new war with Iran, while Democrats struggle to effectively explain why Americans should oppose it. Jon, Tommy, and Lovett react to Trump's first live remarks following the killing of six American soldiers and dissect the administration's conflicting comments about the war's rationale, objectives, and timeline. Then, they discuss how Democrats are talking about it, why not even all of MAGA is on board, the Department of War declaring Anthropic a "supply chain risk," and the Ellison family's impending takeover of CNN. Then, Lovett talks to Senator Ruben Gallego about Iran and the Democratic Party's Senate primaries in Maine and Texas.

Graham Platner has never run for elected office before. He's a war veteran, an oyster farmer, and now he's running in a Democratic primary to eventually unseat Senator Susan Collins of Maine. He's ahead in the polls, but he's also been criticized for Reddit comments from his past and recently covered up a tattoo that looks suspiciously like a Nazi symbol (a connection he denies knowing about). Last week, before the recent attacks on Iran, Anna sat down with Graham to discuss his unlikely outsider campaign. They also talk about his upbringing in rural Maine, his military experience (and current anti-war stance), and what politicians need to do to actually help working people today.

Royal favourites, we want your voice notes in our new miniseries on historical failures. Look out for Producer Al's callout post on patreon.com/thisishistory.  It's there where you can listen to this week's bonus episode, where Dan discusses what likely triggered Henry VI's descent into silence, while he also gives a primer on England's warring noble families: the Nevilles, Percys, and Courtenays.  Henry VI isn't responding to anyone. Not to his physician, nor to his newborn son, Prince Edward. He's just inert, catatonic.  If the king's health is said to be a mirror of the health of the realm, then England's in big trouble (which it is). The Hundred Years' War is on the verge of being decisively over in France's favour. England has lost Gascony, Normandy, and Maine, with only the small Garrison at Calais left.  This a full-blown crisis that is usually left to the king to solve, but instead, Parliament decides to make Richard Duke of York the Protector of the realm — angering Queen Margaret and York's nemesis, Edmund Duke of Somerset.   Then something remarkable happens: Henry wakes up. – A Sony Music Entertainment production.  Find more great podcasts from Sony Music Entertainment at sonymusic.com/podcasts  To bring your brand to life in this podcast, email podcastadsales@sonymusic.com  Learn more about your ad choices.  Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices  – Written and presented by Dan Jones Producer - Alan Weedon Senior Producer - Dominic Tyerman Executive Producer - Simon Poole  Production Manager - Jen Mistri  Production coordinator - Eric Ryan  Mixing - Amber Devereux Head of content - Chris Skinner Learn more about your ad choices.

The two discuss new polls showing Platner leading Janet Mills in the Democratic Senate primary, how his tattoo controversy has resonated with Maine voters, and what he wants to change about the Democratic Party to rebuild a winning, working-class coalition.For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.

Send us a text by clicking this link!A bright cloud, a trembling heart, and a voice that still calls us by name: the Second Sunday of Lent leads us up Tabor to glimpse what grace intends to complete. We read the traditional Mass texts and sit with the Transfiguration, then follow the thread back into ordinary life where sanctification looks like chastity, fairness, and fidelity when no one applauds. The light isn't a detour from the cross; it's the courage to carry it.We unpack why Moses and Elijah speak with Jesus about the Passion, and what that means for our own desire to build tents around fleeting consolations. The Father's command—“Listen to him”—reframes our Lenten work: prayer to anchor our identity, fasting to train desire, and almsgiving to heal our neighbor's wounds. We talk about how sin disfigures, how grace refigures, and why God sometimes withdraws felt support so love can grow sturdy. “Jesus alone” becomes a practical rule for dry seasons, disappointments, and the quiet heroism of keeping our promises.If you've wondered how to hold on to hope when comfort lifts, or how to turn daily frustrations into fuel for holiness, this conversation gives you a clear path. Expect real talk on suffering, a sober word about purgatory, and a tender reminder that Tabor's glory is not lost in the valley—it goes hidden within you. Join us, pray with the readings, and step into a Lent that actually changes your heart.

Send us a text by clicking this link!A hard headline at dawn and a holy invitation at hand: we step into Ember Saturday with fasting, prayer, and a clear-eyed look at how grace meets a restless world. We keep the focus tight—covenant fidelity in Deuteronomy, the lived texture of Christian charity in First Thessalonians, and the mountain light of Matthew's Transfiguration—then move into a grounded guide on confession that trades clichés for clarity.We talk about why frequent confession should never become just a routine, how absolution is Christ acting in the soul, and why naming motives behind venial patterns exposes the roots of anger, pride, and acedia. You'll hear practical steps for a better examen, what to share when you're not confessing mortal sin, and when to book an appointment so those in crisis aren't left waiting. Along the way, we hold together two anchors of Lent: intimacy with God through honest repentance and solidarity with others through fasting and intercession.The thread tying it all together is simple and demanding: hear him. The Father's command on the mountain becomes the plan for the week—listen to Christ in Scripture, in conscience, and in the quiet of the confessional. Let the Precious Blood wash the past and brace the future. Make space for family, keep Ember Saturday with abstinence, and pray for peace, priests, and vocations while the world trembles. If you're ready for a Lent that actually reshapes your habits and steadies your heart, this conversation will give you both vision and tools.If this resonates, subscribe, share with a friend who needs hope, and leave a review so others can find the show.

In Episode 156 of Spellbreakers, Matt Trump explores a chilling and deeply layered question: was a short-lived Fox reality series, Murder in Small Town X, more than entertainment? Matt walks through the timeline of the show's July–September 2001 run, its eerie Maine setting, and the shocking fact that its winner, New York firefighter Angel Huarbe Jr., died on 9/11 just one week after the finale aired. Drawing from the 9/11 Commission Report and contemporary media footage, Matt connects Portland and Eastport, Maine, the hijackers' unexplained overnight stay, and the show's fire, secret society, and Pearl Harbor revenge narrative. He also revisits the Lone Gunmen episode, predictive programming, and the concept of “comms” — the idea that media events may serve as logistical signals to siloed operational teams. Is it coincidence, psychological priming, or something more deliberate? Matt doesn't claim definitive answers, but he lays out the patterns and lets the audience weigh the implications.

Send us a text by clicking this link!Ready for a reset that goes deeper than giving up dessert? We take Ember Friday as a clarifying lens on Lent: why the season spans 46 calendar days, how abstinence and fasting work today, and why these practices still matter for real conversion. Then we open Ezekiel 18 and John 5 to trace a through line from personal responsibility to healing grace, where God's mercy moves first and then asks us to walk in it with resolve.We walk through Ezekiel's stark promise and warning—turn and live, turn away and lose what you had—not to spark argument, but to recover urgency. At the pool of Bethesda we meet a man frozen for thirty-eight years until Jesus cuts through the inertia with a question and a command. That moment becomes a template: receive the gift, carry it forward, and “sin no more.” From there we turn practical with the daily examination of conscience, not as a guilt checklist but as a skillful search for motives and the dominant fault—pride, sloth, or self-love—that powers many small falls. We show how to fight roots with opposite virtues, how to teach the examen to kids in simple steps, and how small, steady course corrections build perseverance.Along the way we unpack the differences between the traditional and new liturgical calendars, why Ember Days focus prayer on priests and vocations, and the U.S. history behind partial abstinence on Ember Saturday. The thread that binds it all: grace is a gift meant to be walked with. If you've been looking for a concrete way to align desire, habit, and hope, this episode offers a map you can start using tonight.If this helped you see Lent with fresh eyes, follow the show, share it with a friend who could use a nudge, and leave a quick review with your biggest takeaway.

Today's Headlines: Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton are set to testify before the House Oversight Committee today — with lawmakers traveling to their home in Chappaqua for the interviews. Meanwhile, after reporting revealed the DOJ appears to have withheld Epstein documents referencing past allegations involving Donald Trump, the Justice Department now says it's “looking into” whether anything was improperly held back.  Adding to the Epstein pile, The Telegraph reports a previously overlooked Jeffrey Epstein storage unit packed with computers, VHS tapes, address books, and alleged “training manuals.” Authorities reportedly missed it during earlier searches. Consequences, however, remain selective. A former Harvard president resigned his remaining university roles and an OpenAI board seat amid Epstein scrutiny. Bill Gates, at a Gates Foundation town hall, acknowledged past affairs that Epstein later became aware of but said he “did nothing illicit” and saw nothing illicit. At the FBI, Director Kash Patel reportedly fired at least 10 agents tied to the Jack Smith classified documents investigation after learning subpoenas had included his own communications and those of White House chief of staff Susie Wiles. In other news, Trump's surgeon general nominee, wellness influencer Casey Means, declined at her confirmation hearing to firmly reject a link between vaccines and autism and would not explicitly urge Americans to get vaccinated. “Science is never settled,” she said. That's one way to approach public health. On the corporate-national-security beat, the Pentagon is weighing whether to designate AI company Anthropic as a potential “supply chain risk” after friction with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. The label could jeopardize federal contracts — a category tech companies tend to enjoy keeping. Media merger drama continues as Paramount's David Ellison sweetened his bid for Warner Bros. Discovery, potentially complicating Netflix's existing deal. And in quieter political news, Democrats flipped or held three state House special elections — one in Maine and two in Pennsylvania — expanding their Pennsylvania majority to 102–98, with one race outperforming 2024 margins by 34 points. There are three more Republican-held seats up next.

Send us a text by clicking this link!What if the one obstacle to holiness isn't scandalous sin but quiet hesitation—the elegant excuses that slip between intention and action? We open Scripture with Ezekiel's hard clarity on personal responsibility and the Gospel scene where a marginalized mother refuses to let go until mercy answers. Those readings set a challenge: justice must be lived, and faith must persist, even when it's uncomfortable.From there, we dive into Divine Intimacy's piercing take on imperfections. These aren't headline-grabbing failures; they are the habitual refusals of “the better act” that charity quietly suggests. We talk candidly about how self-love disguises itself as prudence, how good reasons can become polished delays, and why a life of minimums keeps the soul heavy. Temperament enters the picture too: some of us process before we move, which creates a tiny window where excuses multiply. Rather than shame that wiring, we train it—just like learning fast, safe responses in emergencies.You'll hear practical, field-tested ways to make generosity easier and overthinking harder. We share simple pre-commitments that reduce friction—like keeping a set amount of cash for almsgiving, deciding in advance when not to give, and otherwise choosing the more charitable assumption. These small designs of the will help us act before hesitation talks us out of love. Along the way, the Canaanite woman's grit inspires our own: stay, ask, trust.If you're ready to use Lent as a training block for the will, this conversation offers a clear path forward—Scripture for vision, spiritual tradition for diagnosis, and concrete habits for change. Listen, reflect, and then try one pre-commitment this week. If it helps, subscribe, share the episode with a friend who overthinks generosity, and leave a short review to tell us what habit you're testing next.Support the showNeed seafood for Lent?

Jesse Kelly teams up with Steve Robinson, Editor-in-Chief of The Maine Wire, to unpack The Foreign Takeover of America—exposing how foreign networks are exploiting U.S. systems from coast to coast. They dive deep into Chinese-backed cartels flooding rural America with illegal marijuana grows tied to CCP interests, generating billions in black-market cash while evading oversight and poisoning communities. Robinson also reveals his investigative findings on massive Somali-linked fraud schemes devastating states like Minnesota and Maine, where organized networks have allegedly bilked taxpayers out of billions through fake claims in welfare, child nutrition, autism services, housing, and Medicaid programs—often funneling proceeds overseas via money laundering and shell companies. Jesse and Steve connect the dots on how these parallel invasions—Chinese land grabs and Somali welfare exploitation—represent a deliberate erosion of American sovereignty, fueled by lax enforcement, political inaction, and exploitation of generous social programs.I'm Right with Jesse Kelly on The First TVCardiff: Get fast business funding without bank delays—apply in minutes with Cardiff and access up to $500,000 in same‑day funding at https://Cardiff.co/JESSEChoq: Visit https://choq.com/jessetv for a 17.76% discount on your CHOQ subscription for lifeCowboy Colostrum: Get 25% Off Cowboy Colostrum with code JESSETV at https://www.cowboycolostrum.com/JESSETVFollow The Jesse Kelly Show on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheJesseKellyShowSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Send us a text by clicking this link!A cloud on Sinai, bread in the desert, and three days in the heart of the earth: today's journey moves from spectacle to substance, asking what truly builds a life aflame with God. We read Exodus as Moses steps into the cloud for forty days, follow Elijah from exhaustion to angelic strength on the road to Horeb, and listen to Jesus refuse showy signs while pointing to Jonah and to the deeper family formed by doing the Father's will. These texts sketch a path through fatigue and doubt toward fidelity, where zeal is not noise but a steady yes.From there, we open Divine Intimacy and face a hard kindness: venial sin does not kill love, but it cools it. We explore how deliberate small faults chip away at fervor, how habitual concessions breed spiritual lethargy, and why the saints insist on sorrow even for slight offenses. At the same time, we draw hope from the distinction between frailty and willfulness. Stumbles borne of weakness, met with quick contrition and humility, can become doorways to deeper trust, a lived discovery that without Christ we can do nothing.We end with the Lenten Ember Days, those seasonal waypoints that knit prayer, fasting, and intercession to the rhythm of the year. You'll hear practical ways to abstain and simplify meals, offer reparation, and pray for priests and vocations, not as box‑checking but as a way to refill the “swept house” with grace. If you've felt your zeal thinning, this conversation offers a clear, concrete plan: hate even small sins because you love greatly, confess promptly, repair generously, and let simple practices warm the heart. If it helps, share this with a friend on the road and leave a quick review—then tell us what Ember practice you're embracing this week.Support the showNeed seafood for Lent?

Dr. Ross Greene's work has profoundly shaped how so many of us think about kids' behavior and what they actually need from the adults in their lives, so I'm thrilled to welcome him back to the show to talk about his brand new book, The Kids Who Aren't Okay: The Urgent Case for Reimagining Support, Belonging, and Hope in Schools. Together, we explore the urgent need to reimagine how we support children in schools, especially as mental health concerns continue to rise. We dig into the importance of recognizing developmental variability, why meeting kids where they are is non-negotiable, and how current behavior-focused systems miss the real problems underneath. Ross also highlights the role parents and caregivers can play in advocating for meaningful change. About Dr. Ross Greene  Ross W. Greene, Ph.D., is a clinical psychologist and the originator of the innovative, evidence-based approach called Collaborative & Proactive Solutions (CPS), as described in his influential books The Explosive Child, Lost at School, Lost & Found, and Raising Human Beings. He also developed and executive produced the award-winning documentary film The Kids We Lose, released in 2018. Dr. Greene was on the faculty at Harvard Medical School for over 20 years, and is now founding director of the non-profit Lives in the Balance. He is also currently adjunct Professor in the Department of Psychology at Virginia Tech and adjunct Professor in the Faculty of Science at the University of Technology in Sydney, Australia. Dr. Greene has worked with several thousand kids with concerning behaviors and their caregivers, and he and his colleagues have overseen implementation and evaluation of the CPS model in countless schools, inpatient psychiatric units, and residential and juvenile detention facilities, with dramatic effect: significant reductions in recidivism, discipline referrals, detentions, suspensions, and use of restraint and seclusion. Dr.Greene lectures throughout the world and lives in Freeport, Maine. Things you'll learn from this episode  How kids today are facing unprecedented challenges that require new ways of thinking and responding Why developmental variability matters and why every child needs support tailored to their unique profile How schools can create more supportive ecosystems by using proactive rather than reactive approaches Why behavior is often a late signal of unmet expectations, not the problem itself How managing expectations and understanding root causes can reduce concerning behaviors Why parents' advocacy and the Collaborative & Proactive Solutions model can transform how children are supported in education Resources mentioned The Kids Who Aren't Okay: The Urgent Case for Reimagining Support, Belonging, and Hope in Schools by Dr. Ross Greene Never Too Early: CPS with Young Kids (documentary) The Explosive Child: A New Approach for Understanding and Parenting Easily Frustrated, Chronically Inflexible Children by Dr. Ross Greene Lives in the Balance (Dr. Greene's website) The B Team (Facebook group) Lost at School: Why Our Kids With Behavioral Challenges are Falling Through the Cracks and How We Can Help Them by Dr. Ross Greene Raising Human Beings: Creating a Collaborative Partnership with Your Child by Dr. Ross Greene Lost and Found: Helping Behaviorally Challenge Students (and While You're At It, All the Others by Dr. Ross Greene The Kids We Lose (documentary) How to Parent Angry and Explosive Children, with Dr. Ross Greene (Tilt Parenting podcast) Ken Wilbur Learn more about your ad choices.
