Left & Loose Podcast

In this episode, I take apart one of the most cynical myths of Trump 2.0: the idea that he’s some kind of “peace president”. From masked gestapo brutalizing protesters at home, to ICE turning entire cities into political targets, to regime change cosplay abroad in Venezuela and beyond. None of this looks remotely like peace - it looks like marketing. Cheap slogans, fake ceasefires, made-up emergen...

In this week’s episode, I dive into the Epstein saga: what we actually know, what’s still murky as hell, why the Right spent years weaponizing this story and why they suddenly slammed on the brakes once it started pointing back at their guy. We talk about the decades-long trafficking network Epstein built with help from his elite circle, the sweetheart deals that protected him, the mysterious circ...

Better late than never and before we all get whiplash from the Epstein news cycle, I wanted to hit pause and turn the wine glass on our own side. In “Feckless Establishment Democrats,” I dig into why the party keeps folding when it matters - from the latest shutdown fiasco to a decades-long pattern of consultant-crafted caution. We’ll talk about Schumer’s weak leadership, the eight Democrats who t...

Hi guys, Trump’s on his emperor s**t - declaring fake emergencies, dodging oversight and using the government like a personal revenge tour. This week on Left & Loose , I break down how “small dictator energy” has become the new governing philosophy: tariffs as tantrums, troops for optics and “investigations” for anyone who hurts his feelings. Because authoritarianism’s never been this insecure - o...

In this week’s episode of Left & Loose, I’m talking about the MAGA Kink Sluts - Stephen Miller, Russell Vought and Peter Navarro - the true believers who’ve turned extremist idealogy into policy and MAGA kink into agenda. We cover: * Miller’s creation of an armed military state and use of propaganda * Vought’s plan to dismantle government and install MAGA loyalists * Navarro’s never-ending trade w...

In this episode of Left & Loose , I introduce a new term: “Dildo Republicans.” These are the (mostly) guys who once claimed to stand for everyday Americans - until they got the faintest whiff of power under Trump and decided to shove all that right up the ass. This week I break down: * JD Vance , the “Jeweled Dildo” himself - how he sold out the “forgotten man” for the MAGA agenda. * Marco Rubio ,...

Bibi Netanyahu is using this fake peace plan as part of a larger cover-up - to drag out the war in Gaza and pretend the suffering and destruction isn’t deliberate. When I recorded this week’s episode of Left & Loose , the plan hadn’t yet been announced. But it doesn’t change my argument: even if a ceasefire could happen tomorrow, Netanyahu’s government is too invested in prolonging this war. Starv...

Hey guys, This week I’m looking at the bigger picture of the news. And honestly? There’s one word that explains the entire Republican playbook: contempt. They act like Americans are too stupid to notice what’s happening with: * The economy → tariffs and the Big Beautiful Bill (/Big Billionaire B*****b). * Immigration → masked ICE agents rounding up (mostly) good, hard-working people. * Crime → mil...

Hey guys, You might remember my old newsletter, Modern Progressive . After a long pause (and a lot of wine), I’m back - this time with something new: Left & Loose . What is it? A weekly show where I riff on a political topic with wine in hand. It drives me crazy how the vast majority of Democrats still talk about politics (“democracy”, “institutions”, “norms” blah blah *vomit motion*). This show i...
