Together at last! Co-hosts Nick Hauselman and Jared Yates Sexton are reunited (and it feels so good). In this episode of the Muckrake Podcast, Nick and Jared break down newly surfaced evidence related to Jeffrey Epstein, raising fresh questions about who knew what — and when. They explore the disturbing use of torture tactics by DHS and ICE, and how the government is increasingly targeting political opponents through arrests and surveillance. The crisis in Gaza continues to escalate, and the hosts analyze Israel’s ongoing actions and global fallout. Finally, they examine the sudden cancellation of Stephen Colbert’s show and what it reveals about the current state of media and comedy in a time of rising authoritarianism.
