  • McDonald's Coffee is More Consistent Than Republican Morals

    In this episode of He’s Not Wrong, Chad covers everything from drive-thru coffee rankings (it might shock you) to the dark truth behind Trump’s new civilian surveillance program.

    It’s Pride Month, and while a full Pride episode is coming, Chad makes it clear: supporting all women includes all women-including trans women-and if your feminism is selective, it’s not feminism.

    He also revisits Savannah Chrisley’s push for a presidential pardon and why ignoring the privilege that made it possible is a missed opportunity. Plus, a scathing look at Elon Musk’s alleged drug use during Trump’s presidency and why it matters when billionaires are influencing national policy.

    Later in the episode: Trump’s nearly $1 billion contract with Palantir to collect data on American citizens, and the heartbreaking case of Carol Mayorga, a mother of three facing deportation after 20 years in the U.S.

    And stick around to the end because this week we hear from a listener on why they’re not wrong about the frustrations that come along with Find My Friends.

    This one dives deep into power, privilege, policy, and the hypocrisy too many people are still pretending not to see.

  • The Week That Tried to End Me

    This week on He’s Not Wrong, I unpack a hellish few days filled with financial panic, pet health scares, corporate incompetence, and political rage. First up: a $2,400 emergency vet visit for my cat Gray after he swallowed a plastic bag—and the broader issue of rising veterinary costs and lack of real pet insurance reform. Then, I get into how UPS essentially robbed me and refused to issue a refund despite completely botching a guaranteed delivery.

    But that’s not all. I also break down Trump’s latest “big beautiful bill” that just narrowly passed the House—a Trojan horse policy that guts Medicaid, raises taxes on the middle class, and delays new work requirements until after the 2026 midterms… for a reason. I expose the long game Republicans are playing and why Democrats need to stop being reactive and start being strategic.

    Plus: A rant about the pardons of Todd and Julie Chrisley—and Savannah’s delusional claim that Trump is “bringing families together.” I call BS.

    I also take a voice memo by a very special person from this episode.

  • Original Sin Book Review: Biden's Collapse & Trump's Comeback

    In this episode of He’s Not Wrong, I dive deep into Original Sin—the explosive new book by Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson that chronicles President Joe Biden’s cognitive decline, the Democratic Party’s decision to shield him from scrutiny, and how it all contributed to Donald Trump’s 2024 victory.

    We explore the book’s key revelations: the internal cover-up by Biden’s inner circle, the media’s timing and role in telling this story, the party’s failure to allow a competitive primary, and the fallout from the 2024 debate that changed everything. We also look at how Vice President Kamala Harris stepped into an impossible moment, what this all means for future elections, and why transparency and journalistic integrity are essential to preserving democracy.

    Whether you’re a political junkie, a concerned voter, or just curious about how it all went wrong, this episode breaks down Original Sin and why it matters now more than ever.

  • Artificial Intelligence Is Making Us Dumber with Dr. Benjamin Arnberg

    This week on He’s Not Wrong, I sit down with my former college mentor and now close friend, Dr. Benjamin Arnberg—a seasoned expert in research, education, and public service. With a PhD in Higher Education Administration from Auburn University and years of experience both in and out of the classroom, Ben brings is candid in our conversation about the state of higher education today.

    We dig into the real challenges facing colleges and universities—from the political pressures shaping campus policies to the rise of artificial intelligence and how it’s complicating academic integrity. Ben shares the worst excuse he’s ever heard from a student, reflects on how higher ed has changed, and dishes out a list of hot takes (and what he’s definitely not wrong about).

  • From Broadway to the Vatican: Megan Hilty, Trump's Tariffs, and Pope Leo XIV

    In this solo episode of He’s Not Wrong, I take you on a ride through pop culture, politics, and personal truths. We kick things off in NYC—well, emotionally, anyway—as I dive into how SMASH and Broad City make me feel like I’m back in the city I love. I break down why Megan Hilty deserved more on SMASH, and how my love has grown for her.

    Then we get a bit serious: I unpack the real-world impact of Trump-era tariffs and the shocking prices they’ve caused, and shift into the global spotlight to talk about the excitement—and political weight—of the new Pope Leo XIV. Why should we care? Because the next few years may see him standing toe-to-toe with Trump and Christian nationalism.

    To wrap things up, I take your calls. From advocating for your own health to breaking the cycle of Starbucks performative pay it forward chains, you’re not wrong—and we’re talking about it.

  • Haircuts, Headlines, and Heather McMahan's Cruise

    This week on He’s Not Wrong, we’re covering everything from personal growth to political chaos - and yes, we start with a haircut. IYKYK.


    After realizing I couldn’t record another episode with my hair in disarray, we dive into a story I haven’t told in a while: my health journey and losing 60 pounds. But despite getting to a place of self-acceptance, I’m now suing GE… because their washer and dryer are shrinking my clothes and triggering body image issues. (No, seriously.)

    We also talk about the power of intentional gratitude, the hypocrisy of conservative politics, and what happens when leaders defund mental health care, LGBTQ acess to resources - while still claiming to care about lives.

    Plus:
    – Trump’s weird obsession with Taylor Swift
    – RFK Jr.’s dangerous decisions
    – A challenge to Republicans: can you criticize your own?
    – Why using Alabama as a political prop is nothing new
    – Oh, and yes — I’ve got thoughts on Heather McMahan’s cruise too.

  • Why the Next Pope Matters to America with D'Jara Britton

    In this episode of He's Not Wrong, I sit down with D'Jara Britton — my best friend and a historian with deep expertise — to unpack why the next Pope matters more than you might think.


    We dive into Pope Francis' global impact, the political influence of the Vatican, and the real risks of electing a far-right, extremist Pope who could embolden Christian Nationalists and strengthen Donald Trump's agenda. If you care about democracy, global leadership, or the future of religious influence on politics, this conversation is for you. We break down what’s at stake, why history matters, and why the next papal election deserves your attention.

  • Koch Head: Misinformation, Media Chaos, and the Fight for the Truth

    In this episode of He’s Not Wrong, we sit down with The Koch Head (@Kochead on TikTok)—a viral content creator known for cutting through the chaos of the modern news cycle.

    We dive into:

    • How to filter news in real time

    • Why social media makes it harder (and sometimes easier) to stay informed

    • Where misinformation thrives—and how to avoid falling for it

    • How our past political trends shape where we’re headed next

      If you've ever felt overwhelmed by the flood of information or unsure what's worth paying attention to, this episode is your reset button. We’re talking clarity, context, and how to navigate the media mess without losing your mind.

    • Why Just Existing Feels Like a Fight in America Right Now

      This week, we’re on location in Florida—and we’re shaking things up. I’m flying solo to clear the air on a few things from last week, especially around the idea that our rights are somehow set in stone (spoiler: they’re not). We dig into what it really takes to defend gay rights and why the fight is far from over.

      I also talk about why this creative refresh is exactly what I needed and give you a sneak peek at next week’s episode coming to you straight from Colorado. Plus, we feature three listener submissions—all tied together by a theme you’ll have to tune in to catch. Let’s get into it.

    • Regional Airports Are Holding America Together

      In this episode, I’m not happy—and I’ve got reasons. From dealing with disruptive neighbors to hearing people trash-talk my hometown airport (which, for the record, only I get to do), there’s a lot to get off my chest. But we’re not stopping there. We also unpack why social media buzz doesn’t always translate to real-world election results—and why that's a reality we need to accept. Plus, we feature a user-submitted “I’m Not Wrong” take that you won’t want to miss. It’s a short episode, but we cover a lot. Let’s get into it.
