Today's Headlines: Hungary's newly elected Prime Minister Peter Magyar revealed that Orban's government had been financing CPAC for years — and will no longer do so. JD Vance, meanwhile, told a Turning Point USA crowd that cutting Ukraine aid was one of the administration's top achievements, called Russia's invasion "haggling over a few square kilometers," and told reporters that the Pope should stick to theology and leave policy to politicians. The Pope is currently in Cameroon fighting corruption and attending peace talks. Meanwhile, the Iran ceasefire expires April 21st — less than five days away. U.S. officials claim they're "moving closer to a framework agreement," while Treasury Secretary Bessent previewed the backup plan: a "financial equivalent of a bombing campaign" on Iran through sanctions on countries doing business with Iranian-linked entities, including the UAE and China. In other news, LiveNation and Ticketmaster were found by a jury to be an illegal monopoly that engaged in anticompetitive conduct harming consumers, artists, and venues. Stock dropped 5%. Damages to be determined. The Swalwell scandal expanded to a second DA investigation, this time in Los Angeles, following Lonna Drewes' allegations. CNN published an investigation into a website with 62 million monthly visitors — more than Gmail — hosting tens of thousands of videos of men sharing advice on drugging and assaulting partners. RFK Jr.'s private journals revealed he once stopped on the highway to cut the penis off a dead raccoon to "study later." And finally, AllBirds is pivoting from shoes to AI infrastructure under the name NewBird AI and the founder of SantaCon was arrested for wire fraud after allegedly siphoning hundreds of thousands in charity donations into a personal slush fund for luxury vacations and fine dining.

Welcome to Without a Country, where we break down the biggest stories in politics, culture, and the internet without the usual filter.This episode covers a wide range of topics, starting with the LA mayor race and why Spencer Pratt is being taken more seriously than people expected. There's also a surprising shift from Perez Hilton after a near-death experience that completely changed his perspective.We get into the situation between Alex Cooper and Alex IRL and what it says about the podcast and influencer space right now. From there, the conversation moves into a New York Times op-ed, the idea of a “liberal Joe Rogan,” and why figures like Hasan Piker keep coming up in media discussions.There's also a longer breakdown of Zionism, anti-Zionism, and how the meaning of those terms has evolved, along with how younger generations are viewing Israel and Palestine differently.Later in the episode, we talk about the SantaCon fraud story and how something that's supposed to be charitable turned into a major scandal. Then we spend time unpacking the allegations against Eric Swalwell and the larger conversation around power, politics, and sexual misconduct.The episode wraps up with a deeper look at global conflict, including the situation in the West Bank and what it could mean going forward.00:00:00 Intro00:02:30 Show Overview News, Politics, Culture00:02:50 LA Mayor Race Spencer Pratt vs Karen Bass00:05:00 Perez Hilton Near-Death and Religious Shift00:09:50 Alex Cooper vs Alex IRL Drama00:12:30 Call Her Daddy Industry Tension00:15:10 NYT Op-Ed Breakdown Ezra Klein00:17:00 Liberal Joe Rogan Debate00:21:00 Hasan Piker and Media Hypocrisy00:26:00 Zionism vs Anti-Zionism Deep Dive00:32:00 Language, Politics and Online Narratives00:36:00 Israel, Gaza and Lebanon Discussion00:39:00 Democrats, Media Strategy and Cancel Culture00:41:20 Why Conversation Matters More Than Agreement00:45:00 Cancel Culture Backfiring00:49:30 Algorithm Clips and Misrepresentation00:51:00 SantaCon Fraud Scandal NYC00:54:30 Money Laundering and Arrest Breakdown00:55:50 Patreon and Show Support01:00:00 Eric Swalwell Allegations Begin01:02:00 Power, Politics and Timing of Accusations01:08:00 Additional Accusers and Misconduct Claims01:12:00 Workplace Dynamics and Power Imbalance01:18:00 Believability vs Political Strategy01:25:00 Sexual Misconduct in Politics01:35:00 Cultural Patterns and Repeated Behavior01:45:00 Global Abuse Cases and Survivor Stories01:48:30 Case Studies and Trauma Impact02:00:00 Trust, Trauma and Psychological Fallout02:10:00 Justice System Failures02:20:00 Gender, Power and Media Commentary02:35:00 Audience Reflection and Societal Patterns02:50:00 Political Media and Messaging Frustrations02:55:00 NYC Politics and Content Strategy03:00:00 Final Israel and West Bank Discussion03:01:00 Settler Violence and Long-Term Consequences03:05:00 Outro and CreditsSUBSCRIBE TO THE PATREON:https://patreon.com/WithoutACountry?utm_medium=unknown&utm_source=join_link&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=copyLinkFOLLOW WITHOUT A COUNTRY ON IG: @withoutacountryppodcastFOLLOW CORINNE ON IG: @philanthropygalFOLLOW MIKE ON IG: @themharringtonLiberal Joe Rogan Op Ed: https://www.nytimes.com/2026/04/12/opinion/hasan-piker-democrats.htmlENEMY OF THE STATE: Santaconhttps://archive.is/gkNzfDICTATOR = Christopher FanguyCapitalist Pigs, Cuties!Hello to my newest Capitalist Pig = Xana RogersMAIN STORYEric Swalwell (and Tony Gonzalez) https://www.thecut.com/article/all-the-allegations-against-eric-swalwell.htmlhttps://www.archivebuttons.com/articles?article=https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2026/04/eric-swalwell-abuse-allegations-lewd-photos.html#google_vignettehttps://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2026/04/15/swalwell-allegations-democrats-california-rise/Tony Gonzalez'https://archive.is/QUgSSCutie Cornerhttps://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/pennsylvania-man-pleads-guilty-creating-and-distributing-animal-crush-videosGUUUURLTicketmasterhttps://www.npr.org/2026/04/15/nx-s1-5786715/live-nation-ticketmaster-antitrust-verdict-monopolyTrump As Jesushttps://archive.is/snmkZSurveillance in Americahttps://www.npr.org/2026/04/14/nx-s1-5768270/what-to-know-about-section-702-surveillanceSam Altmanhttps://archive.is/ClM50Hungarian electionhttps://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2026/04/13/hungary-election-orban-defeat-message-democrats-00868584https://www.nytimes.com/2026/04/14/world/europe/viktor-orban-peter-magyar-election.htmlIsrael/Lebanonhttps://www.democracynow.org/2026/4/15/headlines/lebanon_and_israel_hold_first_direct_talks_in_more_than_three_decadesFP article actually critical of Israelhttps://www.thefp.com/p/israel-has-an-extremism-problem?utm_campaign=260347&utm_source=cross-post&r=3l2hy&utm_medium=emailSexual Violence by IDFhttps://www.middleeasteye.net/news/i-wished-death-sexual-violence-israels-prisons-organised-state-policySee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The founder of SantaCon has been accused of siphoning charitable funds from the annual New York City holiday bar crawl for personal use. Prosecutors allege money meant for charity was diverted over several years, raising questions about oversight and transparency behind the popular event. Controversial live streamer Johnny Somali has been sentenced in South Korea after a series of public nuisance incidents that sparked widespread outrage. Authorities say the case underscores South Korea’s strict laws on public behavior and the growing consequences faced by foreign influencers who break them. A new study suggests watching short social media videos may help reduce so‑called “brain rot” by boosting focus and emotional engagement. Researchers say short‑form content can stimulate the brain in ways similar to films, challenging the idea that all scrolling is harmful. Trump ally and conservative lawyer John Eastman has been disbarred for his role in efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election. The ruling strips Eastman of his law license, citing misconduct tied to legal strategies used to challenge Joe Biden’s victory.

La Semana Santa de Lorca encara sus días centrales con la presentación de importantes novedades artísticas que refuerzan su prestigio nacional e internacional. El Paso Azul destaca este año por la renovación histórica del grupo del "Triunfo del Cristianismo", que incluye un nuevo carro para el Ángel Caído y las cuatro virtudes cardinales, además de nuevos trajes y complementos bordados. Por otro lado, el Paso Blanco estrena una monumental carroza de Constantino de 13 metros de longitud, diseñada bajo una estética romana que recrea un arco triunfal y recupera elementos iconográficos históricos. Ambas entidades coinciden en la relevancia de los talleres de bordado impulsados por el Servicio de Empleo y Formación (SEF), los cuales han permitido que nuevos aprendices dominen las técnicas de seda y oro fundamentales para mantener la excelencia de sus desfiles. Esta combinación de innovación técnica y respeto por la tradición se ve impulsada por una sana rivalidad entre blancos y azules que, lejos de ser un conflicto, actúa como el motor que hace crecer y enriquecer continuamente la pasión lorquina.

La Semana Santa de Ferrol encara su nueva edición con la vista puesta en completar las 24 procesiones previstas entre el Domingo de Ramos y el de Resurrección, tras dos años marcados por la lluvia. Las cinco cofradías movilizarán a unas 3.000 personas, entre cofrades y músicos, en una cita que combina más de cuatro siglos de tradición con nuevas incorporaciones. Destaca el estreno de un Cristo articulado en la ceremonia del Desenclavo, obra del imaginero Fernando Aguado, así como nuevas figuras en pasos históricos. También se recupera el manto restaurado de la Virgen de Dolores. Habrá retransmisiones en streaming, tramos silenciosos inclusivos y apertura gratuita del museo en los días previos.

Desde la peregrinación a Tierra Santa que organizan los Franciscanos de María en abril de 2026 el padre Santiago Martín FM nos propondrá cada día una etapa de los Ejercicios Espirituales para que podamos aprender, reflexionar y rezar, viviendo la proximidad a ese "Quinto Evangelio" que es Tierra Santa.

Unlike today's SantaCon, Mabel Hawkin's Santa Claus Association does not involve scores of drunken Kris Kringles. Instead, the Association was a charity group that distributed thousands of gifts to San Francisco's children. This week, we're rerunning this classic episode where Nicole and Michael provide the inspiring story behind this groundbreaking endeavor.

Chaz and AJ were shocked to see zero arrests from the weekend's big SantaCon event, after things got out of hand in 2024. Vince Berry was in with audio from interviews with some of the event participants, and a Tribe member called in to remember a date that he seemed to have forgotten.

(5:58)   With a pair of Guns N Roses tickets on the line, Chaz and AJ opened the phone lines to the Tribe to share their most incredible stories. From painted bats, to surprise gunshots, and a bathroom visit to be proud of. (22:59)  Joey was hanging on hold for about 45 minutes, just to share some of his Make Us Say Wow stories. He certainly lived up to expectations. (35:37) 

Stamford Police Chief Tim Shaw was on the phone with Chaz and AJ to talk about the intense shootout that lasted most of the day. The Chief also addressed the accent that one of his fellow officers exhibited during a press conference. (0:00)  In Dumb Ass News, a man's attempt to rescue an injured raccoon, wound up endangering the whole community after the animal was determined to be rabid.

Chaz and AJ started news with some weather gripes, then turned to attorney Norm Pattis about the Luigi Mangione court hearing. It seems the headlines only seem to care about his eyebrows. (0:00)   In Dumb Ass News, a man burned down his family's home, on Thanksgiving. The Tribe called to share some of their fire incidents that went too far, including a battle with ants. (13:36)  Captain Joe Murgo with the East Haven Police was on the phone with Chaz and AJ this morning to talk about the recent street takeover incident. An officer's car was sprayed with a fire extinguisher, jumped on, and kicked by masked individuals. (20:31)  Seth Porges was on the phone with Chaz and AJ this morning to talk about the infamous SantaCon. Apparently, the early days of the event were intended to be very different than the puke-fest that we know and hate, today. (32:34)

Caesars was just fined $7.8 million by the Gaming Control Board for turning a blind to an illegal bookie laundering money at their property — for years. Why did it take so long?
