Why is the US at war with Iran right now? With journalist Hooman Majd 23.03.2026

Hooman Majd is a journalist and commentator with some unique insights on Iran, by way of his personal background, so I thought I would ask him the question I posed to myself last week , and which will presumably go down in historical infamy: “Why did Trump go to war with Iran on February 28, 2026?” We also got into various other dimensions of the war — the nature of Trump’s second-term ideology, t...

"Worst podcast" March Madness tournament with Matt Taibbi 21.03.2026

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.mtracey.net I’m in Miami, and yesterday recorded this hot new “March Madness” tournament intro with Matt Taibbi, as well as a 2-hour discussion with Ben Swann — the guy who’s probably most responsible for popularizing “Pizzagate” in 2016, and recently claimed vindication, given how the Epstein Files prove Pizzagate, or something lik...

"Today's News" with Michael Tracey and Matt Taibbi -- 3/16/2026 17.03.2026

Let me know if you received a notification for this livestream while it was going on earlier tonight? I might have screwed up the promotion. Anyway, feel free to watch at your leisure, if you please. Also feel free not to watch. There are plenty of other things you probably could be doing with your time that don’t include consuming yet another podcast, even if my intent is to make this, as much as...

Another slew of soap opera garbage from "The Majority Report" 06.03.2026

I honestly can’t recommend watching this, because it’s so petty and tedious, but I figured I might as well post it here, in case any of my Substack subscribers are pure masochists with nothing better to do. You can also watch on YouTube , if you want, but again, I really don’t recommend it. This is a public episode. If you'd like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episod...

Prince Andrew has actually been VINDICATED! But instead he's being slimed 21.02.2026

I keep saying I’m going to start modulating my podcast appearances at some point, and then I never do so. I have a proper article coming soon on the Prince Andrew nonsense. Watch my full appearance on the Unherd appearance here , if you want. I was also on the “All In” podcast , joined by Saagar Enjeti, who popped in for the first half hour or so. I have also done a bunch of other stuff, but it’s...

SURPRISE! "The Young Turks" are CLUELESS about Epstein! 18.02.2026

I happened to come across Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian of “The Young Turks” discussing my appearance this week on the Piers Morgan show, and predictably, they wasted no time rattling off a slew bogus assertions, one after the next, with such sublime and unshakeable confidence. As is so often the case, the pair have just unthinkably absorbed this whole weird Epstein mythos — the actual evidentiary...

All I want for Christmas is Epstein 24.12.2025

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.mtracey.net I’ve spent the last 24 hours consuming an unhealthy amount of Epstein Files. Tis the season to be Jeffrey.

A discussion with Ian Maxwell, brother of Ghislaine 23.12.2025

As everyone ravenously gobbles up all the new “Epstein Files,” released with redactions galore by the Department of Justice ( hey, I tried to warn you! ) please enjoy this discussion I recorded yesterday with Ian Maxwell, a man who I’m sure has many noteworthy traits in his own right, but for our purposes is most relevant because he happens to be the brother of Ghislaine Maxwell — perhaps the most...

Live from DC at the Epstein Files bonanza 18.11.2025

I went to Epstein Press Conference, Part Two today in front of the US Capitol. Some initial thoughts. This is a public episode. If you'd like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit www.mtracey.net/subscribe

Time to dissect yet another Trump/Epstein "bombshell" 13.11.2025

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.mtracey.net I was called forth from my slumbers (and detour into the NYC mayoral race) to comment on the latest Trump/Epstein silliness.

MT interviews NYC voters on livestream 04.11.2025

Asking the New Jersey gubernatorial candidates about Zohran Mamdani, Venezuela, "misinformation," and Epstein 10.10.2025

This Wednesday, October 8, I intrepidly voyaged to New Brunswick, NJ for the final New Jersey gubernatorial debate of the 2025 election cycle. Now, you may be asking yourself: Why should I care about the New Jersey gubernatorial race? Even if you live in New Jersey, you may find yourself asking this question. And I’m not claiming you should care deeply or passionately. But there are some interesti...

Charlie Kirk Memorial: Christian Revival Sweeping America? 22.09.2025

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.mtracey.net I watched the Charlie Kirk memorial extravaganza today. I also went to a Charlie Kirk church service last night in suburban New York. So here’s me thinking aloud about all of it.

Was Charlie Kirk a "Martyr for Truth"? 12.09.2025

People are predictably enraged that I had the audacity to write this article yesterday, questioning whether we’re all obliged to sit passively by while Charlie Kirk gets inducted into the pantheon of slain American political saints. But I’m just following Glenn Greenwald’s dictum : We are all taught that it is impolite to speak ill of the dead, particularly in the immediate aftermath of someone’s...

Where oh where has Darryl Cooper gone? 28.08.2025

One of the people responsible for catalyzing me to look into Darryl Cooper in the first place was Thaddeus Russell, who insisted on a previous stream that I must “respectfully” engage with his friend Darryl’s work, given how prominent a player he’s been for so many years in the “Epstein Space.” So I took up the challenge… and the results weren’t pretty. This is a long stream, recorded today, Augus...

Asking people at the Jersey Shore about Epstein 29.07.2025

This past Saturday I did what every conscientious citizen should’ve been doing with their placid summer weekend: asking random people on the Jersey Shore about Jeffrey Epstein. The journey began improbably, when it turned out the very first guy we encountered had literally been on a boat tour of Epstein’s island. And it ended with a big barrel of laughs, as another guy, Bob, proved to be one of th...

Unraveling the endless Epstein insanity 21.07.2025

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.mtracey.net By popular demand, I spent the weekend immersed in yet another Epstein deep-dive. I report my preliminary findings.

Surf's Up! It's the Summer of Epstein! 16.07.2025

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.mtracey.net Whether we like it or not, it’s the Summer of Epstein. Trump keeps denouncing his own supporters for fixating on the issue — today even going so far as to disown what he now calls the “stupid” MAGA Influencers who refuse to shut up about it. I keep getting requests to write and talk about Epstein mania, throwing a monkey...
