How America's Godless Made a Thunder God Out of a Mortal ClownI saw someone on Reddit shrug: “The thing is, he's actually responsible for stuff. He's the president.”And that's it, isn't it? In a country that once thought presidents were just men in suits, we've built one who rains bunker-buster thunderbolts like Zeus. Not by accident — by hunger. By a god-shaped hole in a nation that told itself it didn't need a god at all.It started as a joke. A clown descends the golden escalator — half Golem, half carnival barker — forged out of the flyover states' raw clay. A tulpa of every grievance that polite America forgot about: open borders, closed factories, global wars fought by kids from nowhere towns. His people breathed him into being like villagers summon a protector. Not a god — just a hammer.But the other tribe, the self-anointed rationalists, the coastal priests of data and democracy, never understood that you don't banish monsters by screaming at them. You feed them. Every headline, every effigy, every “literally Hitler” chant was fuel for the fire. The villagers marked their lintels and said, “At least he's ours.” The priesthood went blind with eclipse fear. A scapegoat is a trickster until he grows too big to burn.Now it's July 2025. He's the 47th president — swing states by landslide, electoral and popular votes. He walks the West Wing like a man wronged, spending four years in exile plotting every bunker plan, every drone fleet sortie, every wall and raid and black budget operation. He doesn't ask permission — he asks forgiveness later. Or never. He knows the fear in your bones, the one that says, “What if he really can smite me from 8,000 miles away?” And you're not wrong. With the Patriot Act still humming, with post-9/11 tools still sharp, the Zeus we built can flick his wrist and the century trembles.It's not just tulpa magic. It's not just a paper god. This is a real empire with 800 bases, an 800-billion-dollar defense spigot, a thousand little Caesars running cover. And the “Never Trumpers” keep screaming, “He's poopy pants! He's senile!” while he stands there naked and radiant, thunderbolt in hand, saying, “You know exactly who I am.”Every mural, every “Never Forget” wall, every daily exorcism is supposed to shrink him back to mortal size. But old magic knows: burning an effigy keeps the flame alive. The villagers built a quarterback, a Champion — not a savior. They know he's a clown. But they also know the crops grow behind the golem's wall. And the other side? They keep howling that the sky god wants your firstborn. Maybe they're right. Or maybe they're feeding him with every scream.When the plague hits or the flood comes, they point up at Olympus: “Trump did this. Trump killed them. Trump broke the world.” And so the trickster tulpa — the clown golem — ascends the storm clouds, pulling the old sun god's mask over that famous hair. Zeus the Trump. Smiter of cities, ruler of the surveillance state, king of the village circus.Don't misunderstand. He won't live forever. Champions break. Golems crumble. But the villagers know how to bury their dead. The priesthood does not. They'll keep the ritual alive long after he's dust, waiting for the next eclipse.Amen.

Recapping Season 8 Episodes 15 & 16  In their next to last season finale, they talk about how this could have been an actual series finale. In fact, there was speculation from some listeners there were only 8 seasons and, after watching these last two episodes in season 8 for the first (and fifth) time, they agree that episode 16 really tied a nice bow around all these little story lines. They also discuss pressing topics such as what kind of beans would be the most disappointing beans to spill, leaving a frozen dick in one's hand, and what it must be like to film a seggss scene with your bff and 20 crew members and craft services all standing nearby. Maggie starts to get a little emotional about the end of the series and Amanda quickly shuts it down. Like a pro. Only one more season left of Suits...which begs the question? What's in store for OSF??? For all things OSF, visit onlysuitsfans.com 

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Political correspondent Tal Schneider and reporter Sue Surkes join host Jessica Steinberg for today's episode. As Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu lands in the US, Schneider discusses the day ahead for the Israeli leader, ahead of his Monday evening meeting with US President Donald Trump in the White House, and the expectations for the announcement of a permanent ceasefire at that point. Schneider looks at the issues that still need to be resolved, including the hostages, aid distribution in Gaza and who will manage Gaza if Hamas is no longer in power. She also discusses the continuing clashes between Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich and IDF Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir, as Smotrich and his supporters accuse Zamir of being too weak in his handling of Gaza and he has lashed back, with their arguments leaked to the media. Surkes looks at what is happening at Haifa's oil refineries after two Iranian missiles hit the plant, killing three workers and creating additional environmental concerns due to pollution from the plant, with calls to shut it down. She also reports on residents from Gaza envelope communities being told by the government to return home in the next weeks and months, although there are still the sounds of war and explosions in their communities. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

Today's story is pulled from a television episode that aired 25 years ago. However, its claims about the Bible are ones that I still see being used often today, and the very scene has been making the rounds on social media this year, which is why I decided to address it on this podcast. It's easy to see why the Old Testament laws can be confusing and hopefully it's easy to see why I'll be devoting an entire episode to this topic. What we see in this clip from the West Wing is not an example of putting someone in their place. No, what we see in this clip is what plagues our culture. That is, Biblical illiteracy. In fact, this clip demonstrates Biblical illiteracy from both President Bartlet and Dr. Jacobs.  The post SILY 653- Loudest Person in the Room appeared first on Golden Spiral Media- Entertainment Podcasts, Technology Podcasts & More.

Happy 4th of July!What better way to celebrate our nation's independence by returning to a time of cultural optimism for the inner workings of our nation's politics. Aaron Sorkin's fantastical take on the inner workings of the staff at the White House provided some top notch entertainment in the early '00s, and Matt and Brian are finally talking about it!Tune in as they discuss Jed Bartlett, Toby Ziegler, CJ Cregg, Josh Lyman and all of your other favorite characters and plotlines!

We present our The West Wing (Season 6) review!The sixth season of the American political drama television series The West Wing aired in the United States on NBC from October 20, 2004, to April 6, 2005, and consisted of 22 episodes.The sixth season opens with the Israeli and Palestinian delegations arriving at Camp David for peace talks. Despite problems at the summit, a deal is thrashed out by President Bartlet, but not before he fires Leo as chief of staff. Leo suffers a heart attack in the aftermath, leading to a re-shuffle of the White House staff. CJ Cregg becomes chief of staff but she finds it difficult to adapt, a fact not helped by the President's worsening multiple sclerosis and consequent interference from the First Lady in an effort to conserve his energy. Away from the White House, Josh convinces Texas Congressman Matt Santos to run for president, and after a shaky start, Santos finds himself in a three-way race for the Democratic nomination with Vice President Russell and former Vice President Hoynes. While the Republican primaries provide a clear winner in California Senator Arnold Vinick, a moderate, the Democratic ticket is not finalized until the Democratic National Convention, at which Santos is chosen as the presidential nominee, with Leo as his running mate. Meanwhile, someone at the White House has leaked national security information to reporter Greg Brock.Disclaimer: The following may contain offensive language, adult humor, and/or content that some viewers may find offensive – The views and opinions expressed by any one speaker does not explicitly or necessarily reflect or represent those of Mark Radulich or W2M Network.Mark Radulich and his wacky podcast on all the things:https://linktr.ee/markkind76alsohttps://www.teepublic.com/user/radulich-in-broadcasting-networkFB Messenger: Mark Radulich LCSWTiktok: @markradulichtwitter: @MarkRadulichInstagram: markkind76RIBN Album Playlist: https://suno.com/playlist/91d704c9-d1ea-45a0-9ffe-5069497bad59 

Walk-Ins Welcome 345 Comedian Eleanor Kerrigan joins Bridget for a hilarious conversation covering how her dreams of being an actor led to an unexpected wrestling stint, a West Wing mixup, and the one woman show that led her to realize her true calling is comedy. She dishes on behind-the-scenes stories from over a decade running the iconic Comedy Store, being a caretaker for legendary owner Mitzi Shore, epic Pauly Shore parties, and blackout rages. They cover surviving tragedy, why there's no middle ground in comedy, how everything leads back to Tony Robbins, and how anyone who tries to help her dies.

Before there was The West Wing, Aaron Sorkin wrote The American President. A movie that represents the best qualities in America through a leader who exemplifies empathy over ego. Can America be great again? Only if our next President in charge (if there is one) carries more of President Andrew Shepard's characteristics.

Michael Wolff joins Joanna Coles's to unpack the latest twist in Trump's Iran debacle—a truth bomb dropped by U.S. intelligence. Wolff, Trump biographer and author of 'All Or Nothing' explains how Trump, obsessed with showbiz and "bragging rights," staged a “perfect war” for TV that is now unraveling in real time. The leaked intelligence contradicts Trump's declaration of a triumphant mission, showing Iran's nuclear capabilities remain largely intact—sending the West Wing into a tailspin of blame and recrimination. Susie Wiles launches a frantic leak hunt. Tulsi Gabbard is thrown under the bus. Pete Hegseth scrambles to avoid Trump's wrath, which Wolff describes as “frightening,” and akin to being “treated like dogs.” Wolff uncovers Trump's sugary mood swings to his government-by-whim—“a reality TV presidency with nuclear stakes.” Coles and Wolff reflect on how the U.S. went from a system of institutions to one man's ego show, powered by candy, rage, and a desperate fear of losing the narrative.

Bradley Whitford Live on Game Changers With Vicki Abelson It was a sweet reunion when 3 x Emmy-winner Bradley Whitford of The West Wing was surprised and serenaded by composer Snuffy Walden, with the show's Emmy-winning theme. They share quite a bit of history, having also done Sorkin's Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip. Last night Snuff and I binged the pilot episodes of both shows and were astounded by how timely they still are. Bradley and I discussed his storyline in that first West Wing, which could've been ripped out of today's headlines. We also talked about Studio 60 and the irony of Danny Trip's confession to Matt Albie, played by Matthew Perry, about his drug slip. Bradley's emotional remembrance of the show, its cast, and specifically Matthew's comedic brilliance, and the pocket of sobriety for Matt that allowed for some of his best work. Bradley ain't no Hollywood fluffernutter. Of progressive Quaker stock, his father, who worked at an insurance company, was the local president of Planned Parenthood before it was political, his mother was an outspoken advocate, and his brother, a conscientious objector. Talk about an unusual childhood, he has an 85-year-old sister. Bradley came from a loving, functional home, and still became an actor. Now that's an anomaly right there. We did a deep dive into the state of the union. Thoughtful, passionate, and in solution, Bradley puts his activism where his mouth is. We talked Trump, Musk, Kennedy, gender affirming care, Biden, Kamala, Hillary, Iran, immigration, how art will not save us, only politics will. And yet much of Bradley's art is political. We spoke about The Handmaid's Tale from innumerable angles. For me, arguably perhaps the greatest show ever on television, and his Commander Lawrence, is probably the most layered, complex character he's portrayed. We talked about Elisabeth and their earlier connection in The West Wing, Anne Dowd, and how her spectacular performance inspired Margaret Atwood's writing, The Testaments, for her. Bradley was far more interested in talking about current affairs and how essential it is that we do more than talk than he was in talking about his work. But we did squeeze in some time to discuss For Worse, the indie feature his bride, Amy Landecker, wrote, directed, and stars in alongside Bradley. His respect, love, and admiration to Amy are adorable to behold. Making the festival circuit and winning awards along the way, I can't wait to see the film loosely based on their romance. I'm a fan. A great, big avid Bradley Whitford fan. The last time we met, it was at a big Hollywood soiree. He was equally as open, personable, unaffected, opinionated, and accessible as he was this day. As much as I adore his work, I'm grateful as hell for his humanity and advocacy. I hope to consider “What would Bradley do” a whole lot more moving forward. And speaking of hope, he has it in abundance… mix that with some fun, his learned recipe's secret sauce, and there's good reason to trust that there are better days ahead. It's up to us, all of us, to make it so. This should be essential viewing for anyone in fear and despair.

President Donald Trump and Elon Musk, two billionaires with massive egos and combustible temperaments, had forged an unlikely friendship over the past year, one built on proximity, political expediency, and, yes, a touch of genuine warmth. Relations between the president and his top benefactor had grown somewhat strained in recent weeks, as Trump began to feel that Musk had overstayed his welcome in the West Wing. Also the review of the 2006 romantic comedy, The Break Up.Hosted by Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.

Joanna Coles sits down with Michael Wolff, the best-selling biographer of Donald Trump who has become his definitive chronicler. Wolff reveals Trump's the real reason for the president's pick-me-energy hair. He tells how Trump has been making an extraordinary racially charged observation to West Wing visitors about modern college students—and Wolff reacts to Trump going after him for saying that the war on Harvard was a revenge attack because 18-year-old Donald didn't get in. Wolff reveals what's really being said inside the president's inner circle about the Lucifer-like fall of Elon Musk and explains what it really means about the prospects for anyone who put themselves in Trump's orbit. And he resurfaces Stormy Daniels' very telling anecdote about who blew up Trump's phone when the two were engaged in their tryst—which of course, Trump still denies. Hosted on Acast.

What begins as a story of political missteps spirals into a global crisis, media manipulation, and a silent coup that shook the foundation of American leadership.

Behind every piece of major legislation, there's a story of strategy, sacrifice, and high stakes. In this episode of American Potential, host David From is joined by Andy Koenig—former White House advisor and one of the key architects behind the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA). From inside the halls of the West Wing to late-night meetings on Capitol Hill, Andy offers a behind-the-scenes look at how the landmark tax reform came together—and why it matters more than ever today. Far from being just a “corporate tax cut,” the TCJA helped over 25 million small businesses and countless working families keep more of their hard-earned money. Andy breaks down how the law simplified the code, sparked job growth, and put power back in the hands of entrepreneurs—not bureaucrats. But with key provisions set to expire soon, Americans now face the threat of a massive tax hike at the worst possible time. Andy also shares a lighter moment from the White House: President Trump wanted to name the bill “Cut Cut Cut”—a reminder that clear messaging matters. With inflation surging and government spending out of control, Andy and David make the case for why now is the time to make these tax cuts permanent—and why letting them lapse would be a crushing blow to American potential. Whether you're a taxpayer, small business owner, or policy nerd, this episode is a must-listen for understanding the stakes behind one of the most consequential economic reforms in a generation.

The economy's on edge, Trump's tariffs are targeting Hollywood, and there's chaos in the West Wing as Mike Waltz is out—and Marco Rubio is somehow doing four jobs at once. Plus, Senator Chris Murphy joins to break down the GOP's sweeping budget cuts, the Democratic response, and whether voters are finally starting to pay attention.

MAGA is in full-on panic mode about the declining birth rate in the U.S., and so the doors of the West Wing are wide open to figuring out how to get more people to have more babies.
