Deep dives
Brian Stelter's Misrepresentation
Brian Stelter from CNN misrepresents Glenn Beck's book, claiming it's all made up. However, Stelter fails to address the actual point Beck is making about the Washington state conspiracy theory regarding interment camps for the unvaccinated. Stelter mistakenly attributes the conspiracy to a satirical post, when in fact it originated from an article on ValueWalk. By misrepresenting Stelter's argument, Alex Jones attempts to cover for Tucker Carlson's negligent journalism.

Concerns over Trump's endorsements

Michael Lindell complains about bank refusal
Michael Lindell, CEO of MyPillow, voices his frustrations about his bank refusing to work with him, blaming Fox News for not covering the issue and suggesting that it should be headline news.

False Flag Operation: Russia and Ukraine
The podcast episode discusses the controversy surrounding White House spokesperson Jen Psaki's announcement that Russia has prepositioned operatives to conduct a false flag operation in Ukraine. The host raises doubts about the credibility of such claims, citing the lack of evidence and emphasizing the existence of past false flag incidents. However, the host overlooks his own previously-held belief that Russia staged false flags, undermining his argument.
Satire Misinterpreted as Serious Proposal
The podcast episode mistakenly presents a satirical editorial as a serious suggestion. The article, titled 'California Should Abolish Parenthood in the Name of Equity,' discusses the inequalities in raising children and sarcastically presents an absurd solution: making raising children illegal and exchanging them between rich and poor families. The host fails to recognize the satire, leading to a misguided interpretation and a misplaced criticism of a fictional proposal.
