Twitter's Dynamic Duo: My funny, profanity laced, insightful conversation with Rick Wilson and Molly Jong-Fast Feb 15, 2019

Show notes

They're twitter's dynamic duo: he's the peanut butter to her jelly, the Mickey to her Minnie, the Batman to...you get the point. These two guests are hilarious and when you bring them together on this podcast, THEY ARE FIRE. You'd think that leading GOP strategist RickWilson and liberal writer Molly Jong-Fast would have nothing in common, but you're wrong. They have two very important things in common; they hate Trump and they love our country. In this podcast we talked about twitter trolls (Molly LOVES them) the best nickname ever given to a shady Governor (thank you Rick) and guesses for 2020, along with a ton of other politichitchat.

Just Because Trumpworld is Batshit Crazy Doesn't Mean You Should Lose Sight of the Big Picture Feb 11, 2019

Show notes

In an in-depth conversation with former National Security Advisor to Vice President Joe Biden Colin Kahl, now of Stanford University, we discuss the unsettling reality of Trump Administration foreign policy for American interests and for those of our allies worldwide. From the intelligence community's not so subtle indictment of Trump policies in their most recent report on global threats to the State of the Union, from team Trump's nationalism to a case-by-case breakdown of the unsettling situation in the Middle East, this discussion is a must listen for anyone who wants to get beyond the headlines to understand the bigger trends and threats at play in today's world. Tune in.

The Best American Conspiracy: A Conversation with Brad Meltzer Feb 08, 2019

Show notes

What if I told you I know this guy who counts U.S. Presidents as fans, has been on the New York Times Bestseller list (many times) & created a tv show that featured a little known actor named Bradley Cooper. You'd say this sounds like a character from a novel and I'd say...you're close. It's author Brad Meltzer whose own life is as interesting as the characters he writes. In this fascinating chat, we talk about his meeting with Tony Mendez (the real CIA officer behind Argo) when he read to George Bush Sr before he passed away and why women make the best subjects for his books on role models.

Why Is Adam Schiff Making the President So Nervous? Feb 07, 2019

Show notes

Adam Schiff, Chairman of the House Select Committee on Intelligence, is a soft-spoken, thoughtful man who does not at first glance seem to be the kind of person who might put a fright into the most powerful man in the world. But Schiff's announcement of his committee's scope for its investigation into Trump, his family and the financial ties and foreign influence that might have compromised them has sent Donald Trump into a fit of name-calling and personal attacks. Our exclusive conversation with Schiff reveals his new agenda, how his GOP predecessors running the committee may have fallen short...and why they may be targets of the investigation itself. Typically, for the Stanford and Harvard-educated Congressman from the LA-area, he also places the investigations into context even as he enumerate countries, organizations (the NRA) and people who may be in his sights. You won't want to miss a minute of this news-filled conversation. Tune in!

Rep. Ted Lieu: We are at the Beginning of a New Era in Congressional Foreign Affairs Oversight Jan 29, 2019

Show notes

Congressman Ted Lieu of California, is one of the smartest, hardest working members of the U.S. Congress. A member of the Democratic Leadership, Lieu, brings an undergraduate degree in computer science from Stanford, a magna cum laude law degree from Georgetown where he edited the law review, a background as an Air Force J.A.G. officer, an on-going role as colonel in the Air Force reserve and extensive legislative experience in California to his current work on the House Judiciary and Foreign Affairs committees. He has been an outspoken critic of President Trump and his enablers in the U.S. Congress and is leading the new Democratic majority’s efforts to uncover the truth about Trump’s ties to the Russians, the Chinese, the Saudis and others who may have responded to the “For Sale” sign the president put up on the front lawn at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. He breaks news about the new oversight agenda of the House Foreign Affairs Committee and where he sees the multiple investigations into Team Trump heading. He also outlines the positive agenda the Democrats in the House are advancing and the leadership strengths of both Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senator Kamala Harris, whose presidential candidacy he recently endorsed. Don’t miss this conversation with one of the rising stars of the U.S. Congress and the Democratic Party.

Tales in Wagging the Dog: I'll Trade You Roger Stone for Nicolas Maduro Jan 29, 2019

Show notes

Roger Stone was very upset the FBI made his dog anxious when they raided his home. He also was unhappy he did not have chance to put on a nice suit before being hauled in court. On the other hand, who cares? He's a big time sleaze and deserves everything he gets. Meanwhile, no one deserves to be abused as the people of Venezuela have been first by Hugo Chavez and then by Nicolas Maduro. So the U.S. is helping to lead a push to oust Maduro.What does that have to do with Stone? Listen in to Rosa Brooks of Georgetown Law, Kori Schake of IISS, David Sanger of the NY Times and Ed Luce of the Financial Times to learn the answer (if the title didn't give it away.)

Shuffle Off To The Deep State: A Funny Snarky Conversation With Asha Rangappa Jan 25, 2019

Show notes

You may know Asha Rangappa as the witty, brilliant legal & national security analyst that graces your television screens on CNN. But, I know her as my tap dancing, french fry loving snark sister. What makes Asha's voice so important in today's political conversation is her trailblazing career and unique experience; she's one of the first Indian Americans to work FBI counterintelligence. She brings a breadth of knowledge and perspective that is so needed in today's dialogue. We discuss Mueller (insert heavenly singing), intelligence careers, our favorite theater roles (cause of course she's a thespian) and we tap dance. Yup, we throw down! So tune in for the espionage & Trump dumpster fire talk, but stay for the tap dancing.

Will the Government Shutdown Be the High Water Mark for the Rest of the Trump Years? Jan 24, 2019

Show notes

If the shutdown in Washington drags on and with it animosity between the political parties grows, will the remainder of Trump's first term be marked by gridlock in DC...and a president forced to turn overseas to make his mark? What might that mark be? Pulling troops out of S. Korea? Breaking up NATO? War with Iran? Kori Schake of IISS, Ed Luce of the Financial Times and Joe Cirincione of the Ploughshares Fund discuss these and even worse possibilities. This is a good one to listen to from your backyard bunker or silo. Tune in! Good times!
