    Five stars for the content, but episodes have recently started out with Scott or the guest in the middle of a sentence, so it seems like the first few minutes or so are getting cut out.

  • Taking a break

    Addendum: came back to hear what Scott’s take was on recent developments in the Middle East but was very disappointed that he was seriously downplaying what happened on October 7. Have you not seen the videos of the terrorists chasing down unarmed concert goers and murdering them. The old lady being kidnapped in a golf cart? That was no military op. What was the objective? No terrain being held. No strategic advantage gained. It was straight up murder. Then the terrorists who manage to ge... more

  • Taking a break

    I generally like the podcast and think Scott is well informed and very reasonable with his take on things even if I might disagree with him on some points. Many of his guests however are Hamas apologists. Scott acknowledges that Hamas engaged in beyond the pale terrorism on Oct 7. But guest after guest refuses to acknowledge the fact that despite the video of Hamas shooting defenseless fleeing or surrendering civilians, Hamas engaged in indefensible atrocities. One clown, trying to defend Hamas,... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

12/5/25 Sangar Paykhar on the State of Afghanistan Today
Q: What led to the current tensions between Afghanistan and Pakistan?
The tensions began when the Taliban government conducted an airstrike against Pakistani positions in response to Pakistan's violation of Afghan airspace, which was perceived as an escalation of hostilities.
12/5/25 Sangar Paykhar on the State of Afghanistan Today
Q: What is your perspective on the Taliban's takeover of Afghanistan?
The Taliban are not simply a radical organization but rather a consequence of Afghanistan's historical socio-political problems. They have emerged as a practical response to decades of crisis and conflict.
12/5/25 Dave DeCamp on the Boat Strikes, Somalia and Trump’s Al Qaeda Friend
Q: How do you interpret Trump's self-defense claims regarding the bombing of drug boats?
They're seen as absurd and unsubstantiated, with experts arguing that they lack legitimate basis under international law.
12/5/25 Dave DeCamp on the Boat Strikes, Somalia and Trump’s Al Qaeda Friend
Q: What do you see as the implications of the recent military actions in Somalia?
The escalation of military actions has created more instability rather than providing security, leading to an endless cycle of conflict with no military solution in sight.
10/31/25 Mike Benz on How the Censorship Complex Works
Q: Does the advent of the second Trump administration mean a rollback in any meaningful sense?
They're way, way, way, way better in so many ways regarding government ability to influence speech.
