2 OTT 2026 · Donald Trump has rejected Iran’s latest proposal for ending the war, even as the economic and political consequences continue to grow at home.Ted Rall and Jamarl Thomas examine why Trump may believe time is on his side, why Iran appears prepared for a prolonged confrontation, and how rising fuel and energy costs are putting increasing pressure on American households.The conversation turns to Republicans attempting to distance themselves from the war ahead of the midterms, the lack of a major American anti-war movement, U.S. support for Israel, nuclear proliferation, and the broader question of how much economic pain Americans are willing—or able—to absorb.
Robby West joins the discussion as the panel digs into consumer debt, housing costs, inflation, energy prices and the increasingly difficult economic reality facing working Americans.Plus, the show examines a housing protest erupting in Madrid after the eviction of an 87-year-old woman whose rent dramatically increased after an investment company purchased her building.
Her eviction became a rallying point for broader anger over housing affordability, rent increases and the growing role of investment firms in residential property.And yes—before any of that—they somehow end up debating black holes, photons, relativity and why light cannot escape an event horizon.

2 OTT 2026 · Pulitzer Prize-winning author Benjamin Moser joins Ted Rall and Jamarl Thomas for a wide-ranging conversation about his book Anti-Zionism: A Jewish History and the long, often forgotten tradition of Jewish opposition to Zionism.The conversation begins with Theodor Herzl and the origins of political Zionism in 19th-century Europe before examining early Zionist settlement in Palestine, the Balfour Declaration, Jewish emancipation, antisemitism and the competing ideas of Judaism as a religion, ethnicity and nationality.Moser also discusses his own Jewish family history, the legacy of the Holocaust, the psychology of persecution and why he believes fear remains central to contemporary Zionism.
The discussion then turns to Israel today: Gaza, the West Bank, Moser's experience visiting Hebron, comparisons with apartheid South Africa, American military and political support for Israel, and what Israel's future could look like if its relationship with the United States fundamentally changes.Ted and Jamarl also discuss the arguments Jewish anti-Zionists have made for generations and ask whether the current war has created a lasting change in the international debate over Israel, Palestine and Zionism.Later in the show: U.S. spending following the Iran war, Gulf-state infrastructure, Saudi Arabia and Yemen, rising costs for American farmers, and the bizarre dispute over whether Belarus was ever actually going to supply the United States with potash.

28 SET 2026 · Could researchers finally be closing in on evidence of Noah’s Ark?
Lauren Witzke joins Jeff Dornik for a special edition of The Jeff Dornik Show to discuss the ongoing investigation of the Durupinar Formation in Turkey and the work being conducted by the Noah’s Ark Scans team.
Witzke says researchers have identified what they believe to be a non-geological structure beneath the surface containing organized patterns, corridors, chambers and three distinct levels. The team is conducting core drilling, soil sampling and other non-destructive testing, with samples being sent to third-party laboratories—including samples being examined for possible ancient animal DNA. jeff ark
She also discusses radar scans, the history of previous investigations at the site, cooperation with Turkish researchers and authorities, the biblical dimensions attributed to the Ark, and what the team hopes to learn through future testing. jeff ark
Lauren and Jeff also explore the larger theological implications of the project, creationism, evolution, the Genesis flood account and why Lauren believes establishing the identity of the structure could have enormous consequences for the creation-versus-evolution debate.
The investigation is not finished. The team says additional scanning, laboratory analysis and preservation work are planned, with hopes of eventually receiving permission to excavate the site.

28 SET 2026 · What if authoritarianism isn’t simply a political problem, but a psychological one?
Dr. Joseph Sansone joins The Jeff Dornik Show to discuss his concept of “psychopathic authoritarianism” and how traits including sadism, narcissism, Machiavellianism and psychopathy can manifest not only in individuals, but throughout institutions and society. Turns Out Tyranny Is a Personal…
Jeff and Dr. Sansone examine political tribalism, learned helplessness, public apathy, government surveillance, war, artificial intelligence and the increasing centralization of power. They also discuss why people can become so emotionally invested in political movements that those movements become part of their identity—and why that can make independent criticism difficult. Turns Out Tyranny Is a Personal…
The conversation ultimately comes back to individual agency: refusing apathy, thinking critically, taking responsibility and recognizing that ordinary people have more power than they often believe. Turns Out Tyranny Is a Personal…

24 SET 2026 · Pete Hegseth wants a tougher, more masculine military—but is Washington becoming more concerned with how American warfighters look than whether America's military can actually win wars?Ted Rall, Jamarl Thomas and Robby West dig into Hegseth's emphasis on appearance, grooming and physical standards before widening the discussion into a much larger argument about American military power, political priorities and a country that can spend enormous resources overseas while struggling to maintain basic infrastructure at home.The conversation turns to Brian Mast wearing an IDF uniform and the distinction between political disloyalty, conflicts of interest and the Constitution's narrow legal definition of treason. The hosts debate U.S. support for Israel and ask whose interests American elected officials are supposed to represent.From there, the discussion moves into the Houthis, Iran, Afghanistan, Chechnya, Somalia and World War II to examine why materially weaker forces can remain extraordinarily difficult to defeat. One possible explanation is brutally simple: America can eventually leave. For people fighting on their own territory, losing may mean losing everything.The show also tackles the symbolism surrounding the remains of fallen soldiers, Puerto Rico and American infrastructure, Macklemore's outspoken support for Palestinians, Robert Kraft's response and whether attempts to suppress political speech can produce a Streisand effect by giving the controversy an even larger audience.Finally, Ted, Jamarl and Robby discuss growing tensions between the United States and Canada and what America's changing relationships with its traditional allies could mean for the country's place in the world.Topics include: Pete Hegseth and military standards; optics versus military effectiveness; U.S. infrastructure; Brian Mast and the IDF; Israel and American foreign policy; the Houthis and asymmetric warfare; Afghanistan and Somalia; military culture; Puerto Rico; Macklemore and Robert Kraft; Palestine and political speech; Canada, tariffs and U.S. alliances.DeProgram with Ted Rall and Jamarl Thomas — political analysis, history, foreign policy and unscripted debate.

24 SET 2026 · Could a mysterious death from 1982 finally provide a new lead in the still-unsolved Chicago Tylenol murders? On this episode of The TMI Show, Manila Chan and Ted Rall dive into a bizarre collection of stories spanning true crime, American history, artificial intelligence, medicine, food—and eventually Robby West's apparently extensive knowledge of cooking squirrels. First, investigators have identified a mysterious man who died by cyanide in a Boise church in December 1982. DNA testing reportedly identified him as a chemist, raising new questions about whether he could have had any connection to the seven people killed by cyanide-laced Tylenol capsules in Chicago just months earlier. Authorities have not established him as the Tylenol killer, and significant questions remain, including differences in the type of cyanide involved and the inability to place him in Chicago during the murders. Then TMI heads back more than two centuries as Manila, Ted and Robby discuss reported new DNA research involving Thomas Jefferson and Sally Hemings. A lock of hair attributed to Jefferson has reportedly been used in genetic research examining his relationship to descendants of Hemings, adding another chapter to one of the most debated relationships in American history. The conversation turns to slavery, power, consent and the difficulty of interpreting an 18th-century relationship through a 21st-century lens. Next: the cyborg future may already be arriving. Researchers are developing increasingly sophisticated brain-computer interfaces capable of monitoring neural activity and adjusting stimulation in response. Potential applications include Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, paralysis and other neurological or psychiatric conditions—but AI-controlled medical devices also raise major questions about surgery, reliability, privacy, cybersecurity and who ultimately controls data coming directly from the human brain. Finally, Americans are increasingly turning to AI for nutrition and shopping advice, while food companies respond to demand for higher-protein foods, specialized diets and personalized nutrition. That somehow leads to Gen X food nostalgia, Slim Jims, AI dietitians—and Robby explaining why squirrel is apparently an underrated source of protein. Yes. Squirrel. It's TMI. We bring you way too much information. The TMI Show with Manila Chan and Ted Rall

17 SET 2026 · OANN’s David Pollack joins The Jeff Dornik Show to break down the growing fracture inside MAGA, where some former Trump supporters say Trump 2.0 has abandoned key promises of the America First agenda, while Trump loyalists continue defending the direction of his administration. We dig into what is actually driving the divide, which issues have become the breaking point, whether the GOP can hold its coalition together heading into the 2026 midterms, and what this internal battle could mean as Republicans begin looking toward the 2028 presidential election.

16 SET 2026 · Reason magazine Senior Editor Stephanie Slade joins me to discuss her new book, Fusionism: Liberty, Virtue and the Future of the American Right, and one of the biggest philosophical fights happening inside American conservatism. Slade makes the case for fusionism, the marriage of individual liberty, limited government and free markets with the Judeo-Christian tradition of moral virtue, while examining the rise of postliberalism and a more power-oriented right associated with figures including Donald Trump and JD Vance. We get into whether conservatives can use government power to impose good outcomes without eventually handing those same weapons to their political opponents, what happened to the old coalition of libertarians, social conservatives and fiscal conservatives, and whether liberty and virtue still have a future together on the American Right.
