Author David Harsanyi’s writing is consumed by millions of Americans. And his latest book, “Blue Anon: How the Democrats Became the Party of Conspiracy Theorists,” is a must-read. He joins Michele to explain how the Russia Collusion Hoax inspired the book; what he really thinks of RFK, Jr.; and why education is full of tenured lunatics. https://www.amazon.com/dp/0063360632 https://x.com/davidharsanyi?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor https://x.com/dcexaminer See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
While President-Elect Donald Trump continues to churn out his Cabinet appointments, democrats can’t decide which election autopsy sounds best. Leave it to the ladies of The View to put in their two cents, along with a bunch of salty-mouthed Moms. https://x.com/Michele_Tafoya?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor https://linktr.ee/MicheleTafoya See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Dr. Christine Rosen is the author of the new book, “The Extinction of Experience: Being Human in a Disembodied World”. She joins Michele to talk about how technology takes up all of our space — waiting in line at the store, filling gaps in our days, even affecting how we converse with other humans. How concerned should we be about the way we are experiencing — or not — our existence? https://www.amazon.com/stores/author/B001JRZ2QU https://www.aei.org/profile/christine-rosen/ https://www.commentary.org/author/christine-rosen/ https://www.nationalreview.com/author/christine-rosen/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
1Take a spin around the internet with Michele on this post-election day. You simply won’t believe what some people are saying. Michele picked her favorite videos and X-posts to share.

You may know him from “Black Hawk Down,” “Transformers: Revenge of The Fallen,” or “Rambo.” What you may not know is that he has nine kids, legally immigrated from the UK, and has a lot to spill about Hollywood. https://x.com/matthewdmarsden?lang=en https://www.matthewmarsden.com/ https://www.youtube.com/@matthewdmarsden See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
A.J. Rice wrote the #1 Amazon Bestseller, “The Woking Dead: How Society’s Vogue Virus Destroys Our Culture.” He joins Michele to discuss his follow-up, “The White Privilege Album: Bringing Racial Harmony to Very Fine People On Both Sides.” As those titles indicate, he doesn’t take himself too seriously, and he has fun making fun of the insanity stemming from wokism. Even Aaron Judge, Michael Jordan, and Nick Foles make their way into the conversation. https://x.com/publiuspr https://publiuspr.com/ https://www.amazon.com/Woking-Dead-Societys-Destroys-Culture/dp/1637583680 See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
It is the silly season… and things got really silly at the White House, the Ellipse, a 49ers game, and Yankee Stadium. Michele covers it all. https://x.com/Michele_Tafoya?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Caroline Downey is a staff writer for National Review. Her observations of the gender gap in the 2024 election are razor sharp. She joins Michele to discuss what men are telling her about women, politics, and Kamala Harris. https://x.com/carolinedowney_?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor https://x.com/NRO See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
After voting democrat all her life, Julie Hamill cried when Donald Trump was elected in 2016. The young lawyer and mother of three also stopped communicating with her Dad, a Republican. Today, she is a different person with an entirely new perspective. What happened over the last eight years that led to her about face? Battling feelings of shame and embarrassment, Julie tells Michele her story. https://x.com/hamill_law?lang=en https://x.com/hamill4pv https://www.hamill4pv.com/ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
This may have been one of the most iconic weeks in politics. Between Donald Trump making fries and friends at McDonalds, to Elon Musk talking about Sharks, to Kamala Harris dishing up another word casserole. Michele reviews the best of the week. https://x.com/Michele_Tafoya?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Why are many Black men rejecting Kamala Harris in favor of Donald Trump? Michele asked Malcolm Flex, who had some fascinating explanations. There is no way to describe Flex in a paragraph. He’s an MMA athlete, a writer, a self-described “libertarian-centrist,” a Dad, and a political junkie. And he’s based. That’s a good thing, in case you weren’t aware! This one is a can’t miss. https://x.com/Malcolm_fleX48?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5EauthorSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Evan Barker spent most of her adult life working for democrat campaigns. She was a prolific fundraiser. But something changed. The party changed. And after being at the DNC, Barker made a decision. She takes us through her journey in this must-listen episode. https://x.com/evanwch See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Could we please have some sanity? Larry David is suffering severe TDS; Kamala is lying again; and Kamala is lying… again. Michele calls it all out. https://x.com/Michele_Tafoya?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor https://micheletafoya.com/ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Finally, a humorous film about Donald Trump. Filmmaker Dinesh D’Souza uses his latest project to ask the question, “How can (Trump) be so intensely loved and hated?” Actor Siaka Massoquoi is a scene-stealer in the movie. He joins Michele to discuss the racial elements of the love/hate relationship with the 45th President. It also happens that Massoquoi was at the Capitol as a private citizen on January 6th. He has paid a hefty price for being an innocent bystander that day. He’s got updates on his status as a “terrorist.” https://vindicatingtrump.com/ https://x.com/_siakamassaquoi?lang=en https://bio.site/siakamassaquoi See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Jaimee Michell calls herself “The Gay Who Strayed” and “The OG Right Wing Lesbian.” She founded Gays Against Groomers, which calls itself “An organization fighting back from inside the community against the sexualization, indoctrination and medicalization of children happening under the guise of ‘LGBTQIA+.’” And she has clearly struck a nerve. https://x.com/againstgrmrs https://x.com/thegaywhostrayd?lang=en https://www.gaysagainstgroomers.com/ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Today we reflect on the horror of October 7, 2023, and the ongoing conflict in the region. We hear from Kamala Harris, and some children of Israel. We conclude on a lighter note with some observations from Jim Geraghty. He weighs in on the VP debate, Doug Emhoff, and more. https://x.com/jimgeraghty?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor https://www.amazon.com/stores/Jim-Geraghty/author/B001H9TDOW?ref=ap_rdr&isDramIntegrated=true&shoppingPortalEnabled=true https://www.nationalreview.com/author/jim-geraghty/ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Senator Marsha Blackburn joins the podcast to describe the horrific scenes Hurricane Helene has wrought in her state of Tennessee. We also talk Title IX and the 2024 presidential race. https://x.com/MarshaBlackburn?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor https://www.blackburn.senate.gov/ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Tim Walz scares the hell out of me. While Joe Scarborough says Walz would make “a good neighbor,” I’ve lived in Walz’ neighborhood … and it ain’t fun. I hope viewers of the Vice Presidential Debate saw the real Tim Walz — the one who lies about a lot of things. We review the debate and welcome Erin Brownback, author of “Stolen Valor: The Military Fraud and Government Failure of Tim Walz.” As a bonus, we talk to Captain Tom Burbage, part of a collective of naval officers looking to eliminate DEI from the military. Their book, “Don’t Give Up The Ship” is a must read.https://a.co/d/aZivbMNhttps://calverttaskgroup.org/ https://www.amazon.com/Dont-Give-Up-Ship-Endangering/dp/B0DCJBQXJNSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Mock and Daisy are the Chicks on the Right. They join Michele to talk about what they’d like to see in America’s first female president — and why Kamala Harris does not foot the bill. Plus, why the choice of Tim Walz as her running mate was so shortsighted. And why are women obsessed with abortion? https://x.com/chicksonright?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor https://chicksonright.com/ https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/chicks-on-the-right-show-w-mock-daisy/id1473671727 See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

there is nothing wrong with compassion and gratitude. but the idea that there is no such thing as a self man is just silly. we are all self made for better or worse. it sounds like the old communist lie told to make their followers covet and resent the so-called "one percent" for having more than they deserve.
