  • FOOD FIGHT: RFK Jr's MAHA vs Fat Fluencers

    Americans have always had a love-hate relationship with food. We eat too much of it, and not the best kind; as high as 75% of Americans are considered obese. Yet our popular culture lionizes models and actors so painfully thin many of them suffer from anorexia. The latest attempt by the body-positivity movement to fight fat-shaming comes in the form of online “fat-fluencers,” one of whom has been hired by San Francisco as its weight stigma czar. Meanwhile, HHS nominee RFK Jr. is going after Big Food on the grounds that they’re inhibiting his drive to Make America Healthy Again.

    Co-hosts Ted Rall and Manila Chan investigate these latest developments in our national Food Fight.

    *** First, apologies for my audio quality. I recently moved my studio setup and my new mic/other equipment hadn't arrived at the time of this recording.

  • WAR CRIMINAL TALK
    Joe Biden has called Vladimir Putin a war criminal, but has anyone ever called a U.S. President that? In this post, I examine America’s long history of military intervention that might warrant this dubious designation in the audio version of my article written for SlantedOnline.com

  • Censorship, comedy, and anti-war don’t mix
    Lee Camp, famed comedian and anti-war activist, shares his thoughts on the shuttering of our TV network, RT AMERICA, global conflicts, and how the media actually undermines peace. And before you get on my case - my internet connection sucked today! So there are gaps in my audio. I apologize, but I’m not a rich, network news anchor on MSM who can afford an elaborate setup. Maybe someday I can piece meal better equipment but I can’t stop ISP throttling. For now, this is it; the insightful takes of Lee Camp! Thanks for listening!

  • To be or not to be…a journalist!?
    It’s back to school season! Many people, young and old, are curious about the field of journalism. I’ve recently had many young people ask me about journalism and how to get started in this industry. So I punted!! Haha! Best to ask a veteran reporter like my award-winning friend, Rick Sánchez. He’s been through the ringer in this business and came back stronger than ever! He shares his insights about his first love, journalism.
