Surely it’s nothing that a show-tune or two can’t fix!
A message from Michael Moore:
Silence.
Thinking.
Then acting.
In that order.
The internet. The television. The noise is not helping. The answers are already inside us.
Enjoy the music. You did the right thing.
More to come…
— Mike

With just two weeks left until the election, Vice President Harris still won’t clearly say what she’ll do differently from Biden to end the U.S. taxpayer-funded slaughter of Gaza’s civilian population. Every poll shows the American people want a ceasefire now. If that’s what the people want, and you want to be their president, why won’t you support what the people want? They don’t want us to be Netanyahu’s bank and arms dealer. Why is that so hard to understand? Why are we risking losing Michigan and the election?
Kamala. Please.

Even One Bibi, Who After the Slaughter of October 7th Then Created the Slaughter of October 8, 2023-October 7, 2024, Is Too Much. The Current Slaughter Is the One You and I Fund and Arm. Who Will Forgive Us? Vice President Harris, Please, Tell Us You'll Fix This.
One year ago today, Michael Moore (and the rest of us) awoke to the devastating news that over 1200 civilians — mostly Jews — had been slaughtered in Israel, and lay dead in the streets.
On today's episode, Michael not only reflects back on that fateful day, but he also uncovers the uncomfortable truths that surfaced in the days, weeks and months that followed, that led us to where we are today: Our tax dollars funding & arming an off-the-rails Netanyahu and his mass slaughter of innocent Palestinians — and now us Americans on the brink of being dragged by Netanyahu into a war with Iran.
Also, only 4 weeks away from November 5th, Michael covers the latest lies and vitriol coming from the American Bibi, Donald J. Trump. Michael reveals the negative effect of our unwavering support of Netanyahu on Michigan voters, and pleads with Vice President Harris to do whatever she can, right now, to end the madness in the Middle East. Or, at the very least, tell the American people, the majority of whom support an immediate ceasefire, that she is going to do right by us and fix this as soon as she holds power.

Michael Moore can't believe how the tables have turned.
Two months ago, the result of our upcoming 2024 presidential election seemed a foregone conclusion, and a second Trump presidency seemed inevitable. But now — just 71 days before the November 5th election — Michael dares to feel hopeful that we may just elect not only our first woman president, but our most progressive!
Also on today's episode, Michael discusses the one stain on an otherwise spotless Democratic Convention: Their disrespect of Palestinian-Americans by not letting a single one of them speak on the stage. Shame! We, their allies, will not be silent about the slaughter in Gaza.

A message from Michael Moore:
"It’s definitely a unique strategy: Defeat Trump by letting Biden have a stroke (or worse).
Here is the podcast version of my written plea for someone to please step in and get President Biden the medical evaluation and help he so obviously needs. An amazing one out of five of our 45 previous presidents have NOT made it to the end of their term. The Founders anticipated this and created an easy solution. We all voted for her in 2020 just in case of and for exactly this reason. Stop wasting another minute! We need every one of the next 122 days for the millions of us to be out there doing the work we must do to block Trump from returning to the White House.
President Biden, thank you for the good you have done. You will be remembered throughout the ages. But not if you let your enablers hound you into doing what your body is begging you not to do. Be the one who not only stopped Trump, but also the brave man who gave us our first woman in the Oval Office. She will complete your mission — and we will stand beside her. THIS is your moment in history. Let the doctors examine you. Then do the right thing."

Last week the state of Louisiana enacted a new law requiring the Ten Commandments be posted in every classroom in every school in the state — from kindergarten to the final year of college.
But it looks like Louisiana will be posting the wrong 10 Commandments. God has recently updated his original 10 from the Bible. He/She/They spoke to Michael Moore and asked him to share the New 10 Commandments 7.0 with his podcast audience…

Michael Moore’s podcast pays another visit to the anti-war encampment on the campus of the City College of New York. The students’ peaceful protest is suddenly interrupted by the aggressive NYPD who show up to conduct a mass arrest and use force to hurt and injure young people demanding peace, divestment and a better world. Listen to it here, as it happened and as we recorded it. Voices that are not heard on mainstream media.

It's a Novel Idea: Let The Students Speak
On this week’s episodes of Michael Moore’s podcast, Mike and his crew disobey the college presidents and NYC’s Mayor Adam’s orders to “outsiders” to stay off the campuses and to stop trying to “radicalize” our youth (because young people don’t have a mind of their own). Mike’s crew (Angie, Donald, and “Anonymous”) paid a visit to protest encampments made up of students from Columbia, City College, City University (CUNY), NYU, etc. to hear directly from the brilliant student organizers of these historic demonstrations. These are the voices you won’t hear on the mainstream media. Listen here to their eloquence and passion as they take a stand for the Palestinian people.

On this episode of Michael Moore’s podcast, we learn about the UAW’s history-making plan to bring union wages, union benefits and a paid vacation to every working class American. You in? Your grandparents had a pension.
Working people have been put through the grinder. Now it’s time that the wealthy paid for their sins.
Also — thank the universe for the protesting college students of America. As Netanyahu and Biden continue the slaughter of the innocents, young Americans are fighting back. It is an amazing and inspiring sight! Let’s support them in every way that we can. As their signs say on their encampments: SILENCE IS VIOLENCE.
Not in our name.

On today’s podcast with Michael Moore, Mike answers the burning questions surrounding the disappearance of the Princess of Wales and then dumps a bucket of ice water on us so we can wake up and finally admit the Central Truths we didn’t want to acknowledge in 2016:
A. Trump is smarter than us. If you don’t think so, then stop right now and tell me how YOU could get elected President while sexually assaulting women (then bragging about it); lying about your worth in order to defraud banks and not pay your taxes; and finally ordering state officials to stuff a ballot box with 11,780 nonexistent votes for you. He may be an idiot and a bigot, but he’s also an evil genius (with the emphasis on genius).
B. Trump has never been convicted of a crime, and has never spent a single night in jail. How delusional do we have to be to believe that after a 50-year career of Trump committing one perfect crime after another that suddenly now his unbroken streak of evading the law is going to come to an end?!
C. The Special Prosecutor will not save us. Fani Willis will not save us. The Trump-appointed Bankers Boxes judge will not save us. The electoral college will definitely not save us. Joe Biden’s campaign staff will not save us. Stormy Daniels will not save us.
The only ones who can save us is ourselves.
Are you ready?

Over 100,000 Michigan voters in the Democratic Presidential Primary last week sent a message to Biden. Their message was strong and clear: End this war. Stop funding Israel's slaughter. Young voters in this 21st century will not support a president who funds a massacre, and if Biden continues to ignore the wishes of the vast majority of Americans, he will lose thousands of people in November who simply won't vote, and Trump will win by default.

Stunned by his refusal to stop funding Netanyahu’s slaughter in Gaza with our tax dollars — an action that may return Trump to the Oval Office — thousands in Michigan who are demanding an immediate ceasefire, including the statewide teachers union, the United Auto Workers, the National Nurses Union and the union of flight attendants(!) plus many others on Tuesday will vote “Uncommitted” to help save Biden from himself… and save the rest of us from a 2nd Term Trump. As Michelle Goldberg wrote in the Times on Friday, "Biden is in danger of losing Michigan and, with it, the whole election."

Your politics suck balls, but I appreciate your taste in music. This is your first good podcast…ever.

So good Michael to hear a strong pro union voice that you are known for. We have a strong union culture in Australia that's taken a big hit but is also facing a resurgence. I think workers understand they're stronger together than apart. I see industries uniting under union banners. Their wins inspire others. And the movement gathers momentum.
A breath of fresh air!
Brilliant! stop the genocide!
Isn't there some things more important to talk about than a lady wanting some privacy for her medical issues?
We should v ote Biden in on the promise that we will impeach him and have a full DOJ inquiry and indictment if facts confirm that's justified, and that that vote will depend on him immediately going to Isreal and confirming his VPs announcement today and adding that US funding will cease if there isn't an immediate cease fire and full on peace talks that must lead to a two state settlement
a politicians religion race or creed has not once factor into my support for the but the content of their character and the policies they stand behind.
I have been a long time admirer of your Voice and your work, Michael Moore. I beseech you to look into Jewish Voices for Peace, their founder, and the true origins and purpose of their organization. Thank you!
In order to watch thus, Apple made me sign up for an account. Even going to it through the link provided. Just thought you should know. My husband and I did enjoy the series. Peace.
Gee mike you don’t seem very good at this gun control thing, huh? You say it’s been…what, 20 years now since you got “involved”? Yikes! 😬 Constantly whimpering about it on ur widdle pod show cast thing doesn’t seem to make much of a difference. Then again, just bitching about shit in ur weirdly hushed emo voice whilst feigning genuine emotion is kinda your thing now.
Good Joke. I wish it were true.
Micheal, love your stuff & all your films, BIG FAN. But I cant find the info you refer to anywhere on the net and fox news is still up and running!
How can I see the midnight announcement from Fox that you refer to? I looked up Media Matters and could not find it.
Considering Tucker had the highest ratings among all the political news reporters, it’s safe to assume he’ll quickly be scooped up and paid an obscene amount of money. Although it won’t be “Michael Moore” level of obscene money. You know, the “anti-capitalist” film maker who owns 5 homes (mansions) but fought tooth-and-nail to avoid splitting his assets with his ex-wife who was legally entitled to 50%. Rest assured, however, he does give back to his community. He pays to build vintage movie theaters in upper class white neighborhoods where for $30 you can watch his dog shit documentaries. Hommie is a SHARK and he doesn’t even know it. Unfulfilled potential - the worst sin of all! FYI I believe that Fox News is (or was or whatever) as dirty and despicable as all the left wing news feeds, and by no means do I support shit stain(s) Tucker C or the Republicans Party. P.S. - 🫃🏼🔫…haha
What a dog whistle you fat cunt. If you remove inner city gang violence, mass shootings fall to about 6 a year. And in regards to guns being the leading cause of death, thats the case for black children. It’s no where close to the leading cause of death of other races. And more then 95% of those killings are committed with an illegally obtained firearm, so simply banning the legal sale of guns won’t fix the problem. How about pointing the finger at the real culprits, the Democratic politicians who can’t properly or effectively govern the cities they preside over.
I will watch that show. you rock and 🇨🇦 knows best.
“They!” have a lot of property he says..haha. You own like 5 homes you dumb cunt lol
Hey Micheal - can you please talk about the railroad workers and the law Biden signed?
