Antisemitism in America has reached a crisis point — and the data proves it. In this powerful episode, Donny sits down with Jonathan Greenblatt, CEO and National Director of the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), to break down the most alarming antisemitism statistics the ADL has ever recorded.

With 17 antisemitic incidents happening every single day in 2024 — including harassment, vandalism, and violence — and a staggering 1 in 4 Americans saying it's "understandable" to attack Jewish people, Greenblatt explains how hate against Jews has gone from normalized to institutionalized since October 7th.

They discuss the rise of antisemitism from both the far left and the far right, the dangerous blurring of anti-Zionism and antisemitism, violent protests outside synagogues in New York City, the murders of Jewish Americans in Washington D.C. and Boulder, Colorado, and why Jewish Americans — just 2% of the U.S. population — account for over 55% of all religion-based hate crimes according to the FBI.

Greenblatt also reveals what the ADL is doing to fight back using AI-powered threat monitoring and education tools, and gives every American — Jewish or not — three concrete steps to combat hate in their communities right now.

If you care about civil rights, the future of democracy, and standing up to hate, this is a must-listen conversation.

Andrew Yang — entrepreneur, bestselling author, UBI pioneer, and former Presidential candidate — sits down for a wide-ranging conversation covering everything from the existential threat of AI-driven job losses to the Democratic Party's identity crisis, cancel culture, fatherhood, and his bold 2028 election predictions.

Yang opens up about his new book, addressing public perception, celebrity status, and life after a presidential run. He breaks down why cancel culture is more complex — and more damaging to society — than most people admit, and why Democrats urgently need to understand the politics of strength if they want to win again.

On artificial intelligence and the future of work, Yang sounds the alarm: millions of jobs are at risk due to AI advancements, and the gains won't be shared equally unless we act now. He revisits his core argument for Universal Basic Income (UBI) and equitable distribution of AI's economic benefits.

Yang also dives into Noble Mobile, his venture to slash cell phone costs and share profits directly with users — a real-world example of putting economic power back in everyday hands.

Plus: Yang reflects on the challenges of fatherhood and shifting personal priorities, shares his outlook for the 2028 presidential race — including which candidates are best positioned to win — and explains why staying personally optimistic in dark times comes down to relationships and community.

Billy Bush — host of Hot Mics with Billy Bush (live Mon–Thu, 12PM ET on TuneIn Radio & YouTube) — joins Donny for a candid, no-filter conversation about life after the Today Show, building his own media brand, and why independent digital media is the future of broadcasting.

Billy opens up about his very public fall from television's top tier and the painful personal journey that ultimately led him back — stronger, more authentic, and finally free from corporate media constraints. He reflects on what it truly means to hit rock bottom, rebuild from scratch, and find purpose on the other side.

Then the gloves come off. Billy and Donny go deep on the biggest stories dominating the headlines: Trump's character vs. policy debate, the U.S. strikes on Iran and the Strait of Hormuz, the 2026 midterms and Democratic Party identity crisis, the Savannah Guthrie missing mother case, and NBC's awkward handling of its own story.

They also unpack the seismic shift in celebrity culture — why Gen Z knows Alix Earl and Mr. Beast better than any Hollywood A-lister — and what authenticity really means in the creator economy.
