Angelo Carusone, a legendary observer of the conservative movement and the president of Media Matters for America, joins Mike and Jared to break down how Candace Owens has hijacked online discourse surrounding Charlie Kirk's assassination and managed to drag MAGA media into a chaos spiral as 2025 comes to a close. Together, they explore where fractures in the MAGA movement might lead and whether spats of infighting can actually give rise to more sinister political force.Worried about demons?

Liverpool delivered a Champions League throwback in the San Siro with a disciplined, contain-first performance that earned a priceless win. We break down the tight, low-event contest, the three huge VAR moments, and why Šzoboszlai and Curtis Jones were the heartbeat of a midfield that finally showed control. We analyse the tactical shape, the isolation of Isak and Ekitike, and how Slot found a formula that actually worked on the night. A big away win with big implications.

The football took a back seat as the Salah-Slot saga exploded across media, punditry and the dressing room. We dig into Carragher's fiery MNF critique, Gerrard's statesmanlike response, Seedorf's confrontational questioning and the reactions of Van Dijk, Alisson and Robertson. We explore why Richard Hughes stepped in, what Slot meant by “I am not weak,” and how this rift could still be repaired. A deep dive into a volatile forty-eight hours that may define Liverpool's season. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

With Milan behind them, Liverpool turn to a must-win clash against Brighton. We assess whether Salah could return, the impact of injuries to Gakpo and Chiesa, and how suspensions force changes in the back line. Brighton arrive dangerous from set pieces, which has become a glaring Liverpool weakness. Can Slot move beyond survival football, add attacking ambition and finally stitch together back-to-back performances? A huge game with huge consequences for the season ahead.

Dave Davis and David Lynch dive into a defining week that could make or break Liverpool's season. With Arne Slot's position weakening by the game, they unpack the mounting pressure after his pointed comments on Konaté, the leaked Van Dijk clip and the growing feeling that the manager is running out of road. Lynch outlines why Liverpool's struggles are not a blip but the continuation of a rot that began last season. Five points from matches against sides in the bottom half is nowhere near good enough, and even the improved defensive shape is masking a team that no longer creates, no longer controls and no longer convinces. The pair also turn the spotlight on Richard Hughes and Michael Edwards, questioning how the sporting leadership has avoided deeper scrutiny as the Salah row, poor recruitment calls and tactical stagnation converge. With Salah's interview tying the club's hands, Slot may now survive longer — but only because Liverpool cannot afford to look like they are bowing to player power. Then comes the football: Inter at the San Siro and Brighton at Anfield. Two opponents in better form, with clearer identities, and with every reason to fancy their chances. Dave and Lynch outline why defeat in both games is entirely plausible and why Slot's compact, low-event football feels like a short-term sticking plaster rather than a solution. Total uncertainty. Total chaos. A club waiting for answers that may not come. This week could reshape everything. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Dave Davis and David Lynch dissect Liverpool's chaotic draw with Leeds in a game that somehow felt closer to a defeat. They break down the set piece issues that have haunted the season, Ekitike's brace and the debate around Isak being benched, Szoboszlai's standout display, Curtis Jones' impact, Konate's costly moment and another frustrating showing from Cody Gakpo. A full analytical review of how Liverpool managed to score three yet still walk away with more questions than answers. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Dave Davis and David Lynch break down the most dramatic off field moment of Liverpool's season as Mohamed Salah detonates a bombshell interview that has sent shockwaves through the club. They analyse why Salah feels scapegoated after being benched for three straight matches, why his limited minutes are being viewed as a statement, and how his ego, status and frustration have collided at the worst possible moment. The discussion digs into every angle: Arne Slot's handling of the situation, the sporting structure's misread of Salah's physical decline, and the complete failure of leadership that has allowed a straightforward selection issue to turn into a civil war. Dave and Lynch explore Salah's “someone wants me gone” claim, the wild conspiracy theories now circling, and why none of them truly stand up. They also examine why Salah going public has made an already unstable dressing room even more combustible and why it now forces Liverpool into a decision that could define the season. A huge day lies ahead with open training, Inter prep and January looming and the truth is no one comes out of this clean. A raw, uncompromising look at a crisis spiralling out of control.

This episode focuses on Liverpool's shambolic 4–1 defeat to PSV, the tactical and structural failings that allowed the Dutch side to dominate at Anfield, and the growing feeling that the team has reached its lowest point under Arne Slot. Dave and David analyse the broken press, the lack of build-up structure, the players' collapse in confidence, and the alarming sight of a manager visibly shaken on the touchline. The discussion centres on why this performance has intensified doubts over Slott's future and why Liverpool are spiralling rather than stabilising. Learn more about your ad choices.

This cut looks at the mounting pressure on Arne Slot as Liverpool continue to struggle tactically and structurally. Dave and David assess why the press isn't functioning, why build-up play has stalled, and why so many players are simultaneously out of form. They also examine the Antoine Semenyo links, questioning the credibility of the rumour and whether such a signing would solve any of Liverpool's wider issues. Learn more about your ad choices.

Dave Davis and David Lynch tear into Liverpool's shocking 3-0 defeat to Nottingham Forest, breaking down a performance that fell off a cliff the moment the first goal went in. They look at the brutal contrast between a promising first half-hour and the catastrophic implosion that followed, including Forest racking up seven shots on target and out-creating Liverpool at Anfield. The pair analyse the lost duels, the 50–50s not being competed for, and the recurring pattern of Liverpool folding every time they concede first. They also dig into the glaring issues with Isak's involvement, the failure to integrate an out-and-out nine, the alarming drop in intensity, and why this is one of the worst performances of the Arne Slot era. A raw, detailed breakdown of a team that looked bereft of confidence, structure and belief when it mattered most. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Dave and David turn to the off-the-pitch storm now engulfing Liverpool, asking whether Arne Slot and Richard Hughes should be under far more scrutiny. They unpack Van Dijk's explosive post-match comments, the continued lack of intensity and structure, and the baffling substitutions that have turned late-game scenarios into chaos. The conversation digs into the deeper issues: why Liverpool's tactical plan isn't visible, why signings aren't bedding in, and why the squad feels disjointed despite heavy investment. They examine the disconnect between recruitment and on-pitch execution, the growing concern about right-back options, the questionable fit of summer arrivals like Frimpong and Kirkes, and the real risk that Champions League qualification could slip away. This cut captures the rising pressure on Slot, the doubts around the summer rebuild, and the moment where Liverpool must decide whether things can still be rescued. Learn more about your ad choices.

Dave and David close out with a deep dive into Liverpool's January priorities and the fixtures that could define the season. They assess the Semenyo rumours, why Bournemouth may be driving the narrative, and whether the player's profile truly fits what Liverpool need. They also explore Liverpool's long-standing interest in Marc Guehi and where defensive reinforcements sit in the club's hierarchy of needs. Attention then turns to the immediate tests: PSV at Anfield and a dangerous away trip to West Ham. David explains why Liverpool should win in Europe but why the Premier League form remains a major concern. The pair discuss likely rotation, the ongoing right-back dilemma, the Calvin Ramsay question, and how Liverpool handle a battered squad in a critical spell. A sharp, forward-looking conversation on transfers, tactics and the two fixtures that could crank the pressure even higher. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Is This the Final Unraveling of a President? | Karel Cast 25-154 A shocking scene unfolded as the former President once again lashed out—calling a female reporter “Quiet, Piggy,” simply for asking a question. And the media? Silent. Intimidated. Afraid he'd turn his rage on them next. Moments earlier he attacked another female journalist for daring to ask why a controversial Saudi Prince—an alleged criminal—was welcomed in the White House. The pattern is clear: escalating hostility toward women, toward the press, toward accountability. But beneath the insults lies something deeper. He's taking hit after hit: Democrats' major election wins, Congress refusing to kill the filibuster despite his demands, and his failed effort to block release of the Epstein files. The pressure is mounting, and the cracks are showing. Is this a man simply angry at the press… or a leader truly coming undone? And how dangerous is an a President who still controls the nuclear codes? We dive into the moment, the psychology, and the dangerous implications.

CannCon and Zak Paine tear into a massive morning of political chaos, media spin, and narrative warfare in this loaded episode of Badlands Daily. They break down USAID-funded media collapse, the absurdity of the Epstein email frenzy, and how every “bombshell” continues to blow back on Democrats instead of Trump. As the hosts walk through Dershowitz clips, Politico narratives, Plaskett's exposed text messages, and Trump's pointed Truth Social posts demanding the release of Epstein files, they lay out why the story looks less like a scandal for Trump, and more like a trap sprung on his enemies. The conversation intensifies with new hit pieces from NPR and Media Matters targeting Badlands hosts, dissecting why establishment media is suddenly panicked about the “Trump-as-informant” theory. CannCon and Zak dive into the mechanics of lawfare, DOJ maneuvers, Pam Bondi's involvement, SDNY strategy, the unfolding J6 pipe bomber controversy, and the timing of federal investigations hinted at by Cash Patel. With humor, receipts, and sharp analysis, they expose the layers of psyops, midterm setups, and narrative control attempts swirling through the political ecosystem.

Jon Herold kicks off a Monday-ish Monday with a mix of exhaustion, sharp analysis, and classic Herold humor as he unpacks a chaotic week of political drama, narrative battles, and strange internet behavior. From the MTG–Trump feud to the endless Epstein “file” frenzy, Jon breaks down why so many online fights feel manufactured and how bad-faith actors, bots included, are warping the truth-seeking ecosystem. He dives into Trump's reversed stance on releasing Epstein records, new DOJ maneuvers, the curious case of SDNY's sudden involvement, and the larger distraction campaign drowning out Trump's real accomplishments. Jon also takes aim at Media Matters hit pieces, Real Clear Politics shoutouts, Biden's sluggish executive action pace, DOJ inconsistencies, and the bizarre rise of Pentagon psyop podcasts. Mixing doomer self-deprecation with grounded realism, Jon makes a compelling case that social media outrage is synthetic, justice comes slowly, and America is still fighting through information fog as Trump continues to “flood the zone.”

In this episode. Bill interviews Matt Gertz, Senior Fellow at Media Matters for America. They discuss various topics, including the recent media silence around a right-wing hate crime, the Jimmy Kimmel controversy, and the influence of corporate conglomerates on the free press. Gertz details how media giants often prioritize profit over journalism, resulting in increased vulnerability to political pressure. They explore how the Trump administration has attempted to manipulate the media landscape to favor its narrative, exemplified by threats from FCC Chair Brendan Carr and Attorney General Pam Bondi's remarks on hate speech. The conversation also touches on Donald Trump's admiration for authoritarian leaders and the implications for the First Amendment and press freedom in the United States.Today Bill features the work of the World Central Kitchen run by Jose Andres. As the war goes on in Ukraine the World Central Kitchen is there, taking care of that war-torn country.

Another rooftop sniper has fired into an ICE facility in Dallas. The truth is not on the news. Copycat situation? Anti ICE? Were hit men hit? Self proclaimed journalists do very little work. Three detainees killed, no ICE injured. The rhetoric is dense. Remedial responses. Make it make sense. Are we normalizing violence against ICE? Nobody is calling out the left. This tells us a lot. Controlling information is worse than censorship. The Hoft brothers and Media Matters know what's happening. Flames are getting fanned. Narratives are faster than facts. One candidate is campaigning positively on the riots. They say death to those who disagree. Routh trained in Poland, and went to Hong Kong in 2019. Let's discuss his lawyer wife. The UN bends optics and shows fragility. Cheering an escalator. There is no safe distance from violence. Why is the right justifying it? Corruption eats our foundation. Fury without direction feeds the fire. Not clumsy, surgical. Rhetoric is moving to action. Manufactured narratives become dominant. Don't be an unpaid amplifier. Consume media slowly and protect the center. Facts first, action second. Election software since the 90's. Our secret weapon is the truth. And they do not own the people.

SEASON 4 EPISODE 13: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN Fraud News Channel morning anchor Brian Kilmeade "apologizes" FOUR DAYS LATER for saying America’s 771,000 homeless (that'd include 33,000 Homeless Veterans and 140,000 Homeless Kids should be killed. By “involuntary lethal injection. Or something. Just kill them.” His co-host Lawrence Jones agreed with him. Fox did nothing about it. They planned to get away with it, and would have, but for Media Matters saving the original clip from last Wednesday and Aaron Rupar re-posting it Saturday morning. I had seen the clip and thought it was fake. It's that bad. And finally Sunday Kilmeade issued a wallet-felt apology. We are in such a place in this country – thanks to Trump, thanks to MAGA, thanks to the late Charlie Kirk, thanks to the Tea Party, thanks to Bush, thanks to… the list continues backwards almost indefinitely and infinitely – that this horrific vision, which in its essence is mass murder of the homeless (the most widely accepted high-end estimate of homelessness in this country is 771-thousand) – and no Kilmeade didn’t say let’s submit 771-thousand people to quote “involuntary lethal injection” – he didn’t have to. Is 771 people somehow less horrific? 77? What’s your threshold to be enraged at the prospect of simply pulling SOME homeless people off the street and lethally injecting them? Seven? One? We know what you are Kilmeade. We are just arguing about the price...to be spent on lethal injections. Fire him now. SHOCK: TRUMP HELPS PUTIN AGAIN as he escalates his attempt to rebuild the Soviet Union. Now it's test drones at the Poland border (again) and the Romanian border (new). Waiting to see if Trump blinked. He blinked so much he could've been sending Morse Code. St. CHARLIE OF KIRK: So, as Andrew Lawrence of Media Matters summarized it: Kirk "was a champion of free speech and if you disagree youre under arrest” The Trojan Horse phony bi-partisan governor of Utah is now down to insisting the family says the shooter had been indoctrinated with left wing ideology. What kind of left wing ideology? That he said he was "not a fan" of Kirk. Funny, the most venomous, most threatening criticism of Kirk in the last 60 days was Nick Fuentes saying Kirk could no longer call himself a Christian and his college events should be interrupted and he should be shouted down, and Laura Loomer insist Kirk "stabs Trump in the back." Hmmm. If harsh words killed Charlie Kirk, is that leftist ideology Fuentes and Loomer were spouting, or right wing guilt? B-Block (37:04) MORE ON CHARLIE KIRK: There are bigger issues in play. It is clear now that there were two different public Charlie Kirks. On the left we saw a slick but rather run-of-the-mill hate monger who mocked Democratic victims of political violence and wanted to see public executions. On the right, they literally never saw those videos. They only saw a "beautiful man, armed only with a bible" preaching family values. How? Different social media feeds. The other big issue with the right's collective mania and desire to punish the left for Kirk's death when it still looks like the far right did as much or more? All of those right wing influencers just assumed God was on their side and was protecting them like he "protected" Trump last year. Oops. C-Block (1:00:20) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: This is the longest all-new episode ever but always time for worsts. Ezra Klein last week? "Charlie Kirk Practiced Politics The Right Way." So, Ezra Klein next week? "Brian Kilmeade Practiced Television The Right Way?" Ken Paxton is screwing around again? Does he have a wandering eye oh right. And when MSNBC fired Matt Dowd for, you know, telling the truth about the death of Kirk, where were Rachel Maddow, Chris Hayes, and Lawrence O'Donnell, risking a dollar or two to defend accurate commentary? I mean they whiffed so badly that they made the anchor who was on with Dowd look perfect by contrast: Katy Tur.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
