Podcasts about right wing

In this episode of the Crawford National Roundtable podcast the guys discuss the assassination of Conservative activist Charlie Kirk.

On 9 October 1934, terrorists murdered King Alexander I of Yugoslavia in a Marseille street. The Croatian ultranationalist Ustashe was behind the attack. The Ustashe hoped that the king's death would cause the collapse of Yugoslavia and the liberation of the Croat people. Murder in Marseille: Right-Wing Terrorism in 1930s Europe (Manchester UP, 2025) examines the circumstances, processes, and trajectories that shaped the Ustashe terrorists and their attack in Marseille. It brings questions about contemporary terrorism to bear on a historical attack: what prompts people to join terrorist organisations? How are these people ‘radicalised' to commit violence? What roles do women play in terrorism? Murder in Marseille bridges the scholarly gap between historical and contemporary terrorism, paying attention to, and often guided by, current concerns, ideas, theories, and notions about terrorist violence.

We break from our scheduled study to speak about the tragic death of a brother in Christ.  As the media engine turns out various narratives tuned to match the algorithms of the viewer,  how do we process what has happened in a distinctly Christian way—one that seeks to glorify Christ and strengthen our walk together as witnesses to the Kingdom of God?

The film follows a titan music mogul who is targeted with a ransom plot, causing him to be jammed up in a life-or-death moral dilemma. The random topic this week is about the recent public killing of rightwing hatemonger Charlie Kirk in front of thousands of college students in Utah. At the time of this recording, the suspected shooter (Tyler Robinson, 22, white male) had not be apprehended by the FBI.

It is an Emmajority Report Thursday on the Majority Report. On today's show: Right Wing broadcaster Charlie Kirk is shot and killed on a university campus in Utah. Simultaneously three teenagers were wounded in a shooting in a high school in Colorado. As of writing this the Kirk shooter is still at large and unknown but that has not stopped right-wing media from blaming "Democrats" despite clear data on violence coming from right-wing extremist.

Charlie Kirk was a national treasure, known for his fearless commitment to open dialogue and free speech. We discuss why he was so important to us, and millions. While Charlie Kirk is irrereplacable, we hope his life inspires legions of people to courageously follow his path of upholding the foundational values and principles of the US. As mothers and citizens rather than politicians, we talk about what it means to intuitively know how to keep families and communities safe, why Charlies represented us and why his loss is so devastating. While we did not agree with all of Charlie's positions, we understood that he was on the frontlines every days trying to ensure an American future based on  its founding principles of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Before you believe the headlines calling Charlie a "Right Wing influencer" please remember that human progress has always required an openness to new ideas and information, while never forgetting the mistakes of the past. So may Charlie's memory be a blessing. May he be forever in our hearts and in our minds. And may we all try to be better people. May we all learn how to have better discourse, how to hear one another, how to empathize with one another.  -Polina and Yelena  

The prominent conservative activist was shot and killed yesterday, at an event he was hosting at Utah Valley University. The 31 year old had built a massive following on social media, and his group Turning Point USA has been credited with ensuring Donald Trump's return to the White House. What happened, and how political violence continues to escalate across America.

Sean Whelan, RTE Washington Correspondent, has the latest on the shooting dead of US right-wing activist and commentator Charlie Kirk. Reporter Sheila Naughton speaks to conservative journalist, Adam Barthalomew, who was at the scene of the assassination of Charlie Kirk.

The hunt for the shooter who assassinated Charlie Kirk at a university event in the US state of Utah is continuing.

We are opening the show with our initial thoughts and discussion around what seems like an assassination of Charlie Kirk, the CEO and co-founder of Turning Point USA, a conservative youth organization and joining me is Camilo Perez Bustillo. Also, as we speak, The senate education committee will decide on California Bill AB715.

Tucker Carlson has been at the center of several heated debates and high-profile moments over the past few days. In a recent high-profile interview on "Piers Morgan Uncensored," Carlson discussed his forthcoming documentary series centered on the events of September 11, 2001, promising to question the official narrative and explore what he calls overlooked truths. This project has already sparked substantial discussion across social media, with Carlson suggesting that Americans deserve to know "what actually happened." The documentary, teased heavily in his media appearances, is expected to challenge both government transparency and media orthodoxy.Carlson also recently tangled with billionaire Mark Cuban during a live debate over U.S. aid to Ukraine. Pushing Cuban on his support for Ukrainian aid, Carlson pressed him to personally contribute, leading to a viral exchange in which Cuban admitted that, despite vocal support, he had not donated money directly. Carlson criticized this position as performative, igniting a broader discussion online about authenticity in political advocacy.In his own podcast, Carlson made headlines for saying he would feel comfortable offering condolences to Osama bin Laden's family after his death. This remark drew sharp condemnation from Texas Senator Ted Cruz, who called Carlson's comments bizarre and took issue with Carlson's broader arguments about U.S. foreign policy, particularly his interview with Iran's president and his willingness to air controversial historical perspectives, including a guest who argued the U.S. should have sided with the Nazis in World War II. Cruz warned against entertaining such extreme views and questioned Carlson's judgment for giving them airtime.Carlson's influence continues to loom large in the conservative media world. According to the Daily Signal and AMAC, Fox News recently acquired Red Seat Ventures, the firm representing Carlson and several other prominent right-wing hosts. This comes as part of a significant shift in the media landscape, with new private sector initiatives and media outfits challenging what some describe as legacy media's former dominance.Financially, Carlson's independent media company, Last Country Inc., is thriving after a major investment from 1789 Capital, which is linked to Donald Trump allies and positions itself as championing conservative and "anti-woke" values. The company reportedly focuses on building a "parallel economy" that caters to audiences seeking alternatives to mainstream narratives and institutions. 1789 Capital touts investments in other prominent ventures alongside Carlson's company, reinforcing his significant standing in the evolving right-of-center media ecosystem.Recent discussions about Carlson's impact have centered not only on his reach but also the controversies he courts—by hosting polarizing guests, challenging American foreign policy consensus, and amplifying debates around topics like the COVID-19 response, as seen in episodes of his Tucker Carlson Network.Carlson also remains engaged in ongoing debates about political trust, media bias, and the role of new media in shaping public opinion. His statements and projects continue to generate strong reactions from both supporters, who view him as a truth-teller unafraid to challenge establishment narratives, and critics, who argue that his platforming of fringe or extreme viewpoints is reckless and divisive.Thanks for listening to the Tucker Carlson News Tracker podcast.

To unpack the impacts of cancer rates skyrocketing in young people, Producer Jaspar McCahon-Boersma talks with hosts Dani Zhang and Tanita Razaghi, with audio from Rare Cancer Australia CEO Christine Cockburn. A major campaign is slowly gaining momentum across New South Wales, calling on the state’s criminal justice system to provide extra support for victim-survivors of sexual violence. To dive deeper into the topic, Jacinta Masters, the Campaign Manager at Fair Agenda, joins the show. For decades, sport’s been treated as a no-go zone for politics, a place to escape the world, not confront it. But that’s changing. Dr Kasey Symons, lecturer in Sports Media at Deakin University and co-founder of women in sport collective, Siren, breaks down the changes in sports and politics. As neo-nazis become increasingly visible on streets all around Australia, producer Emilios Kwasner-Catsivelakis takes a look at the psychology of radical political views. And Crystal Andrews, founder of publication Zee Feed and author of the essay ‘Let’s Not Give Conservative Politicians The Power of Becoming a Meme’ joins us to talk the memefication of right wing figures. This episode of Backchat was hosted by Dani Zhang and Tanita Razaghi, and produced by Holly Payne, Gabriella Accaria, Jaspar McCahon Borsema, Jordan Santander, Olivia Nunes-Malek and Emil Kwasner-Catsivelakis.

SEASON 4 EPISODE 11: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:45) SPECIAL COMMENT: Jayvee Vance has got to resign as Vice President. Relax; he won't. But you cannot BE Vice President of the United States if you're crazy enough to boast about repurposing the military as a War Crime committing death squad killing probable migrants in international waters. Plus if you’re responding to tweets by the Krassensteins you’re clearly insane and unfit for office. Even under Trump.. MEANWHILE: if Trump was an FBI informant against Jeffrey Epstein that means he was a witness to everything Epstein did with those girls? And yes, Mike Johnson tried to "back off" his claim that Trump was an FBI Epstein agent late Sunday, but a) the "back off" came 72 hours after he blurted it out; b) it still implies that Trump knew about Epstein and went to the authorities about it, suggesting he had first-hand evidence like HE WAS THERE, and c) it is a cardinal tenet of QAnon that if Trump is ON the Epstein client list. "He did it for 'Merica!" might not be the flex Trump and Mike Johnson think it is ALSO: Trump was booed as he arrived at the U.S. Tennis Open yesterday. You didn’t see it because Bob Iger and ABC and Disney whored themselves out pre-censoring the truth. CBS just did that too - and worse, agreeing NOT to edit out any lies by Trump Gang members. THE PRIMARY RESIDENCE WITCH-HUNT? The mortgage app alleged white lie with which Trump hopes to bring down a Fed governor and Letitia James and Adam Schiff? The nut job releasing the alleged evidence is Bill Pulte and guess what public records show HIS OWN PARENTS DID? They ALSO CLAIMED multiple "primary residences" - and you can only have one. Oops. THERE IS SOME GOOD NEWS: per G. Elliott Morris: mainstream Trump polling is flat, unchanged. But the INTERIOR numbers? Since January Trump’s STRONG approval number - the diehards - has dropped from 34% to 24%. That's down a third. And his STRONG disapproval number - the haters - has grown from 36% to 46%. Also a third. That is unsustainable. B-Block (41:53) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: "Gunther Eagleman" and the other similarly stupidly named Right Wing influencers now alleged to be on yet ANOTHER country's payroll. Plus the man who killed CNN John Malone may have inadvertently outed a racist: himself. And And a CBS correspondent named Robert Costa let Trump pee on his leg about Russia and all he did was report: “CBS Exclusive: Trump Exclusively Peed On MY leg!” C-Block (55:20) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: They're going to use A.I. to try to reconstruct the infamous 43 missing minutes in the classic - possible greatest film of all time - "Magnificent Ambersons." I loathe the concept. I will watch the product as many times as they let me! But of more immediate relevance, if they ever release it, I'll be able to say I knew the star of a new 2025 film who died in 1994 and I met in 1985 only I didn't realize it was him. I swear I thought she said "Carlton." See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Tucker Carlson continues to generate headlines in both media and political circles, with the past week seeing several noteworthy developments. According to the Wall Street Journal, Carlson and longtime business partner Neil Patel are actively raising funds for a new media company they hope will become a major player in the subscription-based video content space, with a core presence on Twitter, now X. The venture aims to provide both free short-form content and exclusive, longer episodes behind a paywall, building on the success of his Twitter-hosted show Tucker on Twitter, which has already featured interviews with public figures like Andrew Tate and drawn tens of millions of viewers.Reports indicate Carlson and Patel have been in talks with potential investors, targeting hundreds of millions in funding, and have held meetings with executives at Twitter itself to discuss the future of the platform and the integration of their media offerings. The new company is being structured to leverage multiple platforms, including dedicated websites and mobile apps, reflecting an ambition to capture audiences outside traditional cable news and social media silos. Fortune recently reported that the conservative venture fund 1789 Capital, whose noteworthy backers include Rebekah Mercer and Blake Masters, has invested in Tucker Carlson's company Last Country Inc., boosting both its financial backing and its credibility in the conservative media landscape.Carlson remains a lightning rod for commentary and analysis. A recent Fox News segment discussed his influence in shaping right-wing discourse, noting his transition from legacy cable to digital-first dominance. Conservative outlets continue to amplify his interviews and statements, while progressive critics scrutinize both his message and the broader media ecosystem he is shaping. While some detractors view his approach as polarizing, others argue that he has redefined what it means to be influential on the American right, directly reaching audiences without network gatekeepers.Legally and professionally, there have been no major controversies or lawsuits involving Carlson in the past week. His ongoing break with Fox News, after being ousted last year following a high-profile defamation lawsuit settlement, is often referenced as a turning point in the media and business arcs he is now pursuing. Also of note, his partnership with Neil Patel—who co-founded the Daily Caller with Carlson and has a longstanding reputation in conservative media—underscores Carlson's commitment to independently-owned platforms free from traditional network constraints.In political and cultural debates, Carlson's commentary continues to spark strong reactions, particularly among supporters of populist conservatism. He is frequently discussed at policy-oriented events like the National Conservatism Conference, where his views on immigration, free speech, and foreign policy are seen as influential among grassroots activists and emerging political leaders. At these conferences and in his public statements, Carlson has positioned himself as a leading critic of what he calls "mainstream media groupthink" and advocates policies drawing from nationalist and anti-globalist perspectives.Carlson also maintains high-profile public interactions with prominent figures on the right, from political strategists to legislators and commentators, drawing both admiration and criticism. No especially contentious exchanges or feuds have surfaced this week, with most coverage centering on his ambitious business plans, ongoing interviews, and his role as a defining voice in the evolving media-political environment.Thank you for listening to the Tucker Carlson News Tracker podcast, and don't forget to subscribe.

Tucker Carlson has remained a highly visible presence in right-wing media, with several new developments capturing attention over the past few days. His media company continues to generate buzz among conservative audiences and investors, underpinning his ongoing efforts to build an independent platform outside the traditional cable news ecosystem, according to coverage by Spreaker Inc. Carlson's influence extends well beyond his own shows, as he has increasingly shaped right-wing discourse and amplified alternative narratives, often leveraging digital platforms to bypass contractual barriers that once limited his reach to cable audiences.In one of his most talked-about recent interviews, Carlson appeared on Dan Bongino's show where he discussed the media's handling of sensitive topics, including leaked files related to the Jeffrey Epstein case. The episode created considerable chatter on social media, with Carlson accusing mainstream outlets of withholding key names and details from the public, sparking a wave of speculation and renewed scrutiny of legacy news organizations' editorial decisions.Carlson's recent public appearances have often centered on shaping policy debates within conservative circles. At the latest National Conservatism Conference, where speakers included figures like Steve Bannon and international politicians, Carlson's ideological messaging was hailed as a guiding influence on the broader "America First" movement and its MAGA offshoots, according to reporting from Mother Jones. The conference's agenda was notably policy-driven this year, with sessions focused on overturning established Supreme Court decisions and confronting perceived ideological threats on university campuses. Carlson's presence and rhetoric at such forums have helped situate him at the intersection of media influence and activist policymaking, intensifying debates over his role in both shaping and reflecting the direction of modern conservatism.On the legal and professional front, while the aftershocks of Fox News' record $787.5 million settlement with Dominion Voting Systems over false election fraud claims continue to reverberate, Carlson himself remains the subject of speculation regarding potential testimony or statements about those events. Although Fox News settled before Carlson and other top hosts were required to testify, his critics and some rival commentators have continued to press for a full public accounting of his role in the network's editorial decisions during the aftermath of the 2020 election. This ongoing scrutiny has been highlighted by comedians and late-night hosts—like Jordan Klepper—who recently dramatized what an “apology” from Carlson might sound like, reigniting public discussion about network accountability and the influence of high-profile commentators on the spread of misinformation.Reactions to Carlson's recent statements remain sharply divided along partisan lines. Supporters praise his willingness to challenge the mainstream consensus and platform controversial guests, arguing that he exposes truths often ignored by establishment media. Critics, meanwhile, accuse him of amplifying conspiracy theories and stoking polarization, particularly on issues related to national identity, immigration, and responses to international conflicts. Carlson's engagement with figures like Viktor Orbán and other international populists continues to stoke debate over his embrace of illiberal ideas and his impact on domestic and global political movements.In summary, Tucker Carlson's latest activities reflect his ongoing efforts to propel his brand of commentary to the forefront of the conservative movement, leveraging independent media and high-profile appearances to shape debates on culture, policy, and the future of right-wing politics.

In this episode, Bridget and producer Joey Patt unpack the origins of these myths, explain why they stick, and show how the false idea of “trans terror” makes everyone less safe.

Tucker Carlson continues to maintain a prominent role in the conservative media landscape, with recent developments reflecting both new directions in his business activities and his ongoing influence in political discourse. The most significant news is his growing connection with 1789 Capital, a venture capital firm that describes itself as anti-ESG and dedicated to backing conservative and “anti-woke” initiatives. According to Le Monde and updated information from the 1789 Capital website, the firm has recently reiterated its support for Carlson's media company, Last Country Inc., which now runs the website for the Tucker Carlson Network. This network remains a focal point for some of the parallel conservative economy efforts backed by several influential investors, including Rebekah Mercer and, as announced just after the 2024 election, Donald Trump Jr., who joined 1789 Capital as a partner. The fund, which already manages roughly $150 million, has signaled its intention to continue supporting Carlson's and other similar ventures as part of their push to reshape conservative media and technology platforms.In terms of media appearances and statements, Carlson has remained active via his network, releasing new interviews and commentary that continue to draw significant attention and response from supporters and critics alike. While specifics on his most recent public remarks are not available at the time of recording, his programming frequently trends across social media and draws engagement from a mix of high-profile political allies and adversaries. He has also remained a prominent topic across Fox News and rival networks, where his commentary and media projects are frequently referenced in broader debates about journalism, misinformation, and political polarization.There have been no major legal developments directly involving Carlson in the past few days, and coverage of his business continues to focus more on the strategic and financial implications of his alignment with investors aiming to build a so-called parallel economy. This alliance has sparked considerable discussion about the influence of alternative conservative media and the increasing push within right-leaning circles to create media infrastructure as a counterbalance to established outlets.Reactions to Carlson's commentary—and by extension, his broader influence—remain sharply divided. Critics on the left and some on the right argue that his platform amplifies divisive rhetoric and questionable information, while his allies praise his willingness to confront major media narratives and offer a platform to perspectives they claim are marginalized elsewhere. Prominent figures in politics and media continue to engage with Carlson's work, sometimes appearing on his program or referencing his influence when addressing broader debates about free speech, censorship, and the purpose of journalism in today's polarized environment.As for the larger implications, Carlson's ongoing projects and his partnership with financially robust backers highlight how he continues to impact the shape of conservative media and its intersection with politics and business. His interactions with figures like Donald Trump Jr. and alignment with venture funds such as 1789 Capital underscore his shift from traditional cable news to a broader, cross-platform media and activism strategy. The debates surrounding his influence, the reach of his new ventures, and their potential to reshape media norms remain highly active both within and outside conservative circles.Thank you for tuning in to the Tucker Carlson News Tracker podcast.

This week, host Basant Kumar is joined by Newslaundry's Sumedha Mittal and Pratyush Deep.Sumedha talks about her report on Bihar's Special Intensive Revision (SIR). Her investigation revealed that even after this massive exercise, the ECI has conferred wrong house numbers to lakhs of voters. This, she says, creates the perfect opportunity to fill the lacunae with fake voters. After the ECI's SIR, over 1,000 voters in Bihar were grouped under a single non-existent house. Her investigation highlights that whatever mistakes were there in the electoral roll are still on the list even after the SIR.Pratyush's report highlighted Assam's 3,000-bigha land row and the controversy around it. While the story played out on social media, with claims that the land was being handed over to the Adani Group, Pratyush's report reveals that it is, in fact, Mahabal Cement that had ownership of the land.In another report from Assam, Pratyush follows the complainants behind recent FIRs against journalists, who ostensibly had links to the BJP or the RSS student wing ABVP.Tune in.Timecodes00:00:00 - Introduction00:05:06 - Loopholes in SIR00:23:30 - Illegal land allotment00:33:54 - FIRs against Journalists00:44:25 - RecommendationsRecommendationsSumedhaEP-339 | Political Pressure, TRP War, Media Credibility & Influencers vs Journalists | Kalli PuriePratyushThe Rebel Army Behind One of the World's Major Rare Earth SuppliesBasantSaare Jahan Se AcchaProduced and edited by Saif Ali Ekram, recorded by Anil Kumar.

Listeners, Tucker Carlson has drawn significant attention this week following a widely shared interview where he hosted Mother Agapia Stephanopoulos, a Greek-American Orthodox nun, on his online platform. During the segment, Mother Agapia made the inflammatory and unsubstantiated suggestion that Israel intends to blow up the al-Aqsa Mosque or the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem to rebuild a Jewish temple, a claim that sparked strong criticism from Jewish organizations and commentators. Carlson did not challenge these remarks, instead framing the conversation with provocative questions, a style that critics allege enables the spread of falsehoods while he maintains plausible deniability. This approach has reignited debates about Carlson's influence and responsibility in shaping public opinion, especially regarding sensitive topics like the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.In terms of media ventures, Carlson continues to produce episodes through his independent platforms, bypassing mainstream television after his high-profile dismissal from Fox News last year. Industry observers point out that his transition from cable news to digital forums has only deepened his reach within certain conservative and right-wing circles. His audience now largely operates within what critics describe as ideological silos, reflecting broader trends in American media where partisanship shapes news consumption. Recent segments have escalated culture war rhetoric, with Carlson drawing intense reactions both from supportive viewers who praise his willingness to ask controversial questions, and from media watchdogs and advocacy groups who accuse him of providing a platform for conspiracy theories and misinformation.On the legal front, there have been no fresh lawsuits or formal investigations involving Carlson in the last few days, though discussions persist about the circumstances surrounding his departure from Fox. The network reportedly retains damaging information in reserve should future conflicts arise, and analysts continue to debate the professional fallout from his ouster, which remains a case study in the intersection of media management and high-stakes political commentary.Carlson also featured in recent social media exchanges, including a viral on-air clash with Senator Ted Cruz over US policy toward Iran, which fueled ongoing debates about the Republican Party's foreign policy direction and the power dynamic between right-wing commentators and elected officials. These interactions illustrate Carlson's persistent role as a provocateur in broader policy debates, with influence that extends beyond news programming into the very fabric of conservative politics.His public persona and approach remain the subject of heated debate not just within American circles but internationally, as groups and commentators in the UK and elsewhere monitor his segments for the export of American conservative narratives. Some point to his style as emblematic of dark-money influenced political media, raising questions about regulation and the health of democratic discourse in the digital age.Listeners, thank you for tuning in to the Tucker Carlson news Tracker podcast.

What's the matter with America? We've been told for years about the dumb working class MAGA voter. That they are exploited by Trump, that their interests are the reverse of a self-interested Republican cultural or economic elite. But according to the iconoclastic Tablet magazine contributor Michael Lind, we've got it the wrong way around. MAGA Voters are anything but stupid, he argues. That's why they don't care what dissenting podcasters like Tucker Carlson think. Instead, they're making rational choices based on their material interests, not blindly following con-celebs like Carlson, Laura Loomer or Curtis Yarvin. The real Trump coalition consists of two groups that pundits consistently misunderstand: reliable Republican voters who will support any GOP presidential nominee, and more crucially, swing voters in swing states. Rather than following the latest ideological dramas between right-wing influencers, these supposedly swing-voting “low-information voters” are making practical decisions about their lives. So actually, Lind implies, echoing other contrarian American populists like Thomas Frank, there's nothing the matter with a United States that somebody representing the class interests of ordinary Americans couldn't fix. 1. Right-Wing Influencers Have Zero Real Political Power Podcasters like Tucker Carlson, Laura Loomer, and Curtis Yarvin may dominate online political discourse, but they have "next to no influence on actual policy." When they turn against Trump, there are no electoral consequences because they don't command actual voter armies—just online audiences.2. MAGA Voters Are Making Rational Economic Calculations The "low-information" swing voters who decide elections aren't following ideological media rabbit holes. They're high school or some-college educated people making practical decisions about their material interests, not consuming political content or caring about intellectual debates among conservative influencers.3. America Is Experiencing a Class War Between Managers and Everyone Else The real divide isn't left vs. right but between a highly credentialed "managerial elite" who control large institutions and an unlikely coalition of working-class voters and outsider entrepreneurs (like Silicon Valley founders) who resent bureaucratic control.4. Trump Rebuilt FDR's Coalition for the Republican Party Through a complete partisan realignment, Trump assembled the same geographic and demographic base that supported Democrats from Andrew Jackson through LBJ—while today's Democratic Party represents the Northeastern establishment that Republicans used to champion.5. The Solution Requires Rebuilding Civil Society, Not Better Politicians America's crisis stems from over-centralization and the collapse of intermediate institutions like unions, local political parties, and churches. Real change requires "democratic pluralism"—giving ordinary people power between elections through rebuilt grassroots organizations, not just voting for better candidates every few years.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

In this riveting episode of No Way, Jose!, host Jose Galison sits down with Kirk Lyons, the controversial lawyer behind the Southern Legal Resource Center (SLRC), often viewed as the legal backbone of the neo-Confederate movement. With a client list tied to flashpoints like Waco, Ruby Ridge, and the Oklahoma City bombing, Lyons has rubbed shoulders with polarizing figures such as Richard Butler, Louis Beam, William Pierce, and Bo Gritz. True to the show's parapolitical roots, Jose approaches Lyons with a mix of curiosity and caution, digging into the murky connections between the far-right and potential intelligence operations. This conversation explores Lyons' motivations and the broader context of his work, questioning whether he's a staunch defender of free speech or entangled in something deeper, all while keeping an open mind about his true role.With No Way, Jose!'s trademark skepticism of official narratives, Jose navigates the complexities of Lyons' career, from his defense of militia groups to his ties to the extremist fringes. The episode wrestles with the uneasy tension between representing unpopular causes and the suspicion of hidden agendas, especially given the shadowy intersections of government and far-right movements. Galison's thoughtful probing invites listeners to ponder the bigger picture: where does Lyons fit in the web of dissent, law, and power? Tune in for a nuanced, thought-provoking discussion that challenges assumptions, leaving you to decide what's really at play in this enigmatic lawyer's story.Please consider supporting my work-Patreon- https://www.patreon.com/nowayjose2020Only costs $2/month and will get you access to episodes earlier than the publicNo Way, Jose!

This week, we're airing part two of a documentary series, courtesy of Radio Diaries, about three radio personalities who had huge audiences in their time, but today, are largely forgotten. These days, we're used to media that thrives on conflict, that amplifies the most outrageous voices in the room. It's something we often trace back to shock jocks like Howard Stern, and in-your-face talk show hosts like Tucker Carlson and Rush Limbaugh. But long before all those guys, there was Joe Pyne. At the height of his career in the 1950s, the New York Times called him the “ranking nuisance of broadcasting.” On the Media is supported by listeners like you.

Today's Headlines: Trump and Putin are meeting today in Anchorage, Alaska, at the Cold War-era Elmendorf-Richardson base — which Russian media is treating like a five-star historic landmark. Ukraine's Zelensky wasn't invited to the land-talks party. Trump says he's optimistic about a deal, with a joint press conference possible if things go smoothly (or solo remarks if they don't). Meanwhile, investigators say Russia-backed hackers broke into the federal courts' sealed records system, which holds national security cases and other sensitive files. In politics, California Governor Gavin Newsom marked “Liberation Day” by announcing a ballot measure to take redistricting power from his state's independent commission, while Texas keeps fighting over its own maps. Border Patrol showed up at Newsom's LA event, prompting Mayor Karen Bass to call it “provocative.” Inflation's back in the spotlight as wholesale prices saw their biggest jump since 2022. PBS is still defunded, and conservative group PragerU is being floated as a replacement. And in family news: Ivanka Trump's back to plan a White House UFC fight for America's 250th birthday, while Hunter Biden claims Jeffrey Epstein introduced Donald and Melania Trump — something Melania's lawyers want retracted, but Hunter says he's not backing down.
