The Dr. Phil Podcast

In part two of his conversation with Dr. Phil, Tom Homan goes deeper. He says flat out, unequivocal, that he believes sleeper cells from the border crossing are already inside this country and the intelligence community knows it. He talks about the 145,000 children the Biden administration lost track of and what his team has found. And he takes on the media directly, after personally visiting the Dilley family detention center in Texas and seeing something very different from what's been reported. Clean kitchens. Children laughing in classrooms. Doctors who treat every child like their own. Tom Homan says it was a far cry from what he'd been reading for two months. Dr. Phil gives him the space to tell the story the headlines aren't telling, and asks the questions that still need answering.Thank you to our sponsors that made this episode possible:Don’t wait!

Tom Homan has spent more than 40 years in law enforcement.He didn't have to come back. But he did because he believes in the mission and the people carrying it out. When Dr. Phil sat down with him in January, a major story was just breaking. A lot has happened since. Homan was dispatched toMinneapolis to take control of a difficult situation, worked directly with local officials to bring things to a close, and has spent the months since navigating one of the most intense periods in the history of border enforcement. Through all of it, he has remained focused on one thing... the safety of the American people and the men and women putting their lives on the line every day to protect it. Dr. Phil gives him the space to speak for himself, talk about what he's learned, and share why,  through all the noise,  he believes the work matters.Thank you to our sponsors that made this episode possible:You Can Do It Foundation supports meaningful media that reflects faith, family, personal responsibility, and freedom.

Sheridan Gorman didn’t deserve to die. Her story deserves to be told. Police say the suspect, Jose Medina, opened fire without warning on the Chicago lakefront. And yet — this story didn’t dominate headlines.It didn’t lead the news cycle. In many places, it barely showed up at all. Why? Because those ICE raids — whether people agree with them or not — were meant to prevent exactly this kind of outcome. Sponsored by Preserve Gold. Don’t react — have a plan.

Braun Levi was an 18-year-old senior and standout tennis player at Loyola High School in California with a bright future ahead, including a planned college tennis career. On May 4, 2025, while walking with a friend in Manhattan Beach, he was struck and killed by a vehicle driven by a woman allegedly under the influence of alcohol and driving on a suspended license. The impact of his death rippled through his school, family, and community, sparking grief and calls for change. His parents later established the Live Like Braun Foundation to honor his legacy and raise awareness about the dangers of impaired driving. In early 2026, the woman accused in the crash pled not guilty to murder and other felony counts, with prosecutors alleging her blood-alcohol level was more than twice the legal limit at the time of the collision. Braun’s story is one of a promising young life cut tragically short, and of a family channeling grief into advocacy and a broader push to prevent similar losses.Thank you to our sponsors for helping to make this episode happen:The You Can Do It Foundation supports meaningful media that reflects faith, family, personal responsibility, and freedom.

In the wake of a violent antisemitic attack on campus, DePaul student Michael Kaminsky and University of Chicago student Jake Rymer refused to stay silent. What began as fear and frustration over rising campus hostility after October 7 became a grassroots legislative movement. With no political power or institutional backing, the two students organized, educated, and lobbied city leaders -culminating in a unanimous 50–0 City Council vote making Chicago the largest American city to codify the IHRA Working Definition of Antisemitism into municipal law. As New York City rescinds its adoption of the same definition, this episode examines courage, institutional failure, bipartisan action, and what happens when the youngest voices in the room redraw the moral line against hate.Thank you to our sponsors who helped make this episode possible:The You Can Do It Foundation supports meaningful media that reflects faith, family, personal responsibility, and freedom.

What happens when you “tax the rich”… and the rich leave? In this episode of The Real Story, we break down Zohran Mamdani’s plan to raise taxes — and why the outcome may be the opposite of what people expect.Here’s the reality: New York has already lost more than $500 billion in income. Over 125,000 residents have moved to Florida, taking billions with them. And the top 1% still pays over 40% of all income taxes. So what happens if more of them leave? You don’t just lose the rich. You lose the revenue. You lose the jobs. You lose the businesses that support entire communities. That’s not theory. That’s already happening. This isn’t about politics. It’s about outcomes. Because when you drive out the people funding your economy—you don’t redistribute wealth…you reduce it. For everyone.Sponsored by: Preserve Gold: Don’t react — have a plan.

In this episode of The Real Story, Dr. Phil breaks down how Congress’ failure to pass a budget is impacting national security, from TSA and border protection to cyber defense and the Secret Service. With 260,000 Department of Homeland Security employees affected many working without pay — the consequences go far beyond long lines at the airport. Staffing shortages, burnout, and financial stress are hitting the very people responsible for keeping the country safe. This is bigger than politics. This is about national security and the real cost of leadership failure.Thank you to our sponsors: Preserve Gold - text "ASK PHIL" to 50505 and go to https://DrPhilGold.com/*Don’t wait!

Antisemitism isn’t just politics—it’s a psychological pattern fueled by fear, identity insecurity, conspiracy thinking, and group pressure. Dr. Phil sits down with Israeli writer and bestselling author Hen Mazzig to explain why antisemitism “mutates” to fit the moral language of each era, how scapegoating becomes an emotional shortcut, and why viral misinformation moves faster than the truth. From campus chants to algorithm-driven propaganda, they unpack how people get pulled into moral certainty while repeating ancient tropes—and what actually works to interrupt it: humanizing contact, speaking openly, and building a movement that refuses to normalize hate. More About Hen Mazzig: https://www.henmazzig.com/ Thank you to our sponsors:*Preserve Gold - text "ASK PHIL" to 50505 and go to https://DrPhilGold.com*ArKay Zero Proof is made so you can celebrate fully, feel your best, and never compromise.

California quietly reclassified people in their early 50s as “elderly” and opened the door for rapists with 50-, 100-, even 800-year sentences to walk free after serving a fraction of their time. Through Jennifer’s story, this episode uncovers how that happened with almost no public scrutiny, why most victims never hear about these parole hearings until it’s too late, and what prosecutors and judges say must change before other states start copying the same playbook.Thank you to our sponsor: Preserve Gold - text "ASK PHIL" to 50505 and go to https://DrPhilGold.comSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

They can schedule a heart transplant in days. In America, you wait years. That impossible math has one explanation: someone is being killed to fill the order. Tonight, investigative journalist Jan Jekielek, senior editor at The Epoch Times and author of Killed to Order: China's Organ Harvesting Industry and the True Nature of America's Biggest Adversary exposes the Chinese Communist Party's state-sanctioned, for-profit organ harvesting industry, estimated at $8.9 billion a year. From the whistleblower whose surgeon husband harvested corneas from 2,000 living prisoners, to the survivor who woke up in a Chinese prison with a 14-inch scar and parts of his liver and lung missing, to the hot-mic moment between Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin... the evidence is no longer deniable.
