In this podcast, Jeff talks about his trip to Italy and love of Italians — and notes the many similarities between Italians and Jews and one glaring difference. Italy was great but the constant content making of young people in Capri annoyed him. Only this dopey, lazy mentality could drive the success of Zorhan Mamdani, a Socialist Hamas supporter, in the NYC mayoral race.

In this episode, Jeff returns after a few weeks off — and explains how one press conference in Chicago spiraled into a fabricated international incident with the Mexican government. Representing Ovidio Guzmán (El Chapo’s son) became less about legal defense and more about being scapegoated by terrified politicians. In the end, free speech and the truth will always shine through. And the Mexican people?  Jeff notes that his respect for them has grown exponentially.

Also covered: Hamas’ newest PR strategy — letting Gaza starve while hoarding food in tunnels and filming propaganda videos of emaciated kids (whose fat parents are somehow not starving). The lies grow louder, the propaganda slicker, and yet Western liberal and far-right Jew haters just can’t stop blaming Israel and taking it out on Jews. All while the next mayor of NYC will be a Hamas cheerleader who wants government-owned supermarkets and to arrest the Prime Minster of Israel. The downward spiral that began in 2008 nears completion.

And finally, Jeff goes full collector mode: a breakdown of the baseball card National Show in Chicago. Too many rooms, too many scammers, but one glorious vintage Orioles cabinet card makes the entire hellscape worth it.

In this podcast Jeff discusses a moment he never dreamed would occur: Iran’s nuclear facilities were destroyed by America and Iran is finally punished for its global terror. Every President from Carter through Biden looked the other way or appeased Iran’s terrorism — Trump did not. Jeff eats some crow but points out the MAGA leading voices who sided with the Muslim terror state that tried to kill our President. 

And an update on Jeff’s federal fraud sentencing before his fraternity brother. It was a hoot, it was surreal and it brought back a lot of memories.

This week Jeff opens with the long-awaited Israeli strike on Iran’s nuclear infrastructure, a dazzling military operation years in the making. But instead of support for Israel, Jeff is stunned by the response: hatred not only from the far left but now pouring out of MAGA’s biggest names. Yes, the Trump-right has joined Hamas and the progressive left in their obsessive Jew hatred, and Jeff is seething.

Trump, meanwhile, couldn’t resist taking credit for the Israeli success after the fact, even though he reportedly tried to block the strike for months. And if he actually helped, why didn’t he greenlight American B-52s to finish the job on the underground nuke sites? Why is he trying to make a huge deal when the world’s biggest sponsor of terror is on its knees?

Also this week: a tale of how a young lawyer buying his first suits comes full circle 30 years later, this time as a man paying cash with 44 tailored suits under his belt. Plus, Jeff faces a federal judge he went to college with and admits, despite all of his own accomplishments, the judge is the better man.

As always, Jeff pulls no punches. Not for MAGA. Not for Trump. Not for the far left. And certainly not for anyone siding with the world’s worst terror regime.

In this episode, Jeff analyzes President Trump’s handling of negotiations with Iran and its terror proxies, as well as America’s jihadist universities, and demonstrates that the desire for the bestest of deals doesn’t always end with good results for America and its allies. America needs a strong ideologue in place during these difficult times and not a used car salesman.

The new four episode Max docuseries about the Sinaloa Cartel is out and you’ve got a review from the one person who actually knows the truth — Jeff — and he points out the obviously fabrications contained therein. If you real true crime stories you don’t want to miss this podcast.

In this episode, Jeff finds a fresh low for Hamas: celebrations around the coffins of babies they kidnaped and massacred. When will the world stand up? When will President Trump open the gates of hell he promised? Jeff provides a quick plan to fix the terrorist threat from Gaza. Also, federal prosecutors in NYC rightly quit in protest of the Department of Justice’s political decision to dismiss the indictment against NYC Mayor Adams — but don’t think for a second they’re above politics in their own actions: exhibit A is the phony 3.5 year investigation of James O’Keefe.

In this episode, Jeff dives into Donald Trump’s return to the White House and his whirlwind of executive orders, targeting the FBI and imposing tariffs on China, Canada, and Mexico. But is it enough to steer America back on track, or is it merely settling old scores?

Jeff doesn't hold back on the radicalism festering in American universities, demanding Trump take decisive action against terror-supporting students.  His solution?  Catch, Cage, Deport.

On the legal front, Jeff recounts three recent federal sentencings—from a cocaine dealer avoiding a 19-year sentence and getting time served, to a hospital fraud defendant receiving just 90 days, and an insider trader escaping with a 60 day sentence. Each case is a testament to the power of straight talk and human connection in the courtroom.

And if you think quoting a Nigerian author named Adichie at sentencing is a good idea, Jeff's got news for you—it’s not.

In this new episode of Beyond the Legal Limit, Jeff unwinds all things Luigi: from the arrest to the initial state charges, to the upgraded First Degree Murder charge, to the shocking federal charges. Included is Jeff’s insight on why everything seemed to change in the prosecution — the impact of the massive pro-Luigi public groundswell is the culprit. 

In other news, Jeff describes a trip to Florida for a plea on a multi-million dollar fraud case which incredibly ended with no conviction for his young client, and why a generous act a few days prior may have caused this result. 

Lastly, NYC Mayor Adams’ big mouthed top aide gets indicted and she still can’t stop talking to the press. An update to an earlier podcast lays all the stupidity out. In short, Jeff called this one early.

In this episode, Jeff dives into the trial of Daniel Penny, the former Marine charged in the death of Jordan Neely on a New York subway. With jurors grappling over manslaughter charges, Jeff explores the legal, cultural, and moral dimensions of the case. Was Penny a reckless vigilante or the hero every New Yorker prays for when chaos erupts underground? And how does Alvin Bragg, Manhattan’s controversial DA, fit into this mess?

Then, a dramatic shift in the Middle East: the Assad regime crumbled this past weekend with shocking speed, leaving Syria in rebel hands and Iran's terror network shattered. Jeff unpacks why this is more than just the fall of a dictator — it’s the collapse of a decades-long “axis of resistance.” From Iran’s humiliation to Hezbollah’s downfall, find out how Israel pulled off what seemed impossible in just 14 months.

Jeffrey Lichtman dives into the art of trial summation, sharing how a line from a 1977 Robbie Benson film unexpectedly found its way into the John Gotti, Jr. summation. Bottom line: the more that’s in your brain, the more that can come out — and help you —  at unexpected times.

Next, Jeff unpacks the bail denial of Sean "Diddy" Combs, highlighting the challenges of defending a high-profile client when the media circus and public perception play a heavier role than the facts of the case. From alleged jailhouse rule-breaking to a judge unwilling to take the risk, Jeff explains why this outcome isn’t surprising — and how defense lawyers need to be careful not to help the judge hurt their client.

Finally, a blistering critique of Joe Biden: the President was spotted with a book by an anti-Israel provocateur while Americans remain hostages in Gaza. Jeff connects Biden’s public nod to Palestinian propaganda with the surge of anti-Semitism in North America and abroad, calling out the administration’s complicity in enabling global Jew-hate.
