Deep dives
Wagner Group's failed attempt to march on Moscow
The podcast episode covers the failed attempt by the Wagner Group, a mercenary group run by Yevgeny Pragosian, to march on Moscow. Initially claiming that the Russian military had attacked them, Pragosian rallied his forces to march on Moscow, causing concern. However, an agreement between Pragosian and Putin was brokered, leading to the Wagner Group halting their march. Pragosian's history of criminal activities and close ties to Putin are also discussed, highlighting the danger and complexity of the situation.
Controversial text messages involving Joe and a Chinese executive
The podcast episode delves into the controversy surrounding text messages allegedly sent by Joe Biden to a Chinese executive. The texts, believed to be from Hunter Biden's phone, mention Joe sitting next to him and demand the fulfillment of a commitment. The authenticity of the texts and their implications for Joe Biden's involvement in Hunter's business dealings are debated. Hunter's attorney attributes the texts to Hunter's drug addiction, while the White House denies any business association between Joe and Hunter. The potential legal and political consequences of the situation are examined in the episode.
Media focus on the one-year anniversary of Roe v. Wade

NHL's Decision to Discontinue Pride Warm-Up Jerseys
The NHL has announced that teams will no longer wear specialty jerseys during warm-ups, including the pride night sweaters. This decision comes as several players faced scrutiny for refusing to wear the pride jerseys last season. While community outreach and charity efforts will still continue, the NHL aims to avoid any players being targeted or labeled as bigots for their personal choices.
Barack and Michelle Obama's Failed Hollywood Ventures
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's Hollywood endeavors have faced numerous setbacks, including canceled projects and failed collaborations. Conversely, Barack and Michelle Obama, after securing deals with Netflix and Spotify, have had mixed success and little certainty about the projects' release or impact. Critics argue that these ventures reflect a lack of talent rather than a reflection of their status. The contrast highlights the difficulty faced by former royals trying to establish themselves in Hollywood.
The Wagner Group marches on Moscow, only to turn back and take a deal from Vladimir Putin; Hunter Biden’s shocking text messages to a Chinese executive put Joe in the hot seat; and the media drive outrage over the one-year anniversary of the overturning of Roe v. Wade.
