The Ann & Phelim Scoop

The "powers that be" are working overtime to try and coverup for the biggest scandal of COVID-19 -- Governor Cuomo's disastrous policy that forced COVID positive patients back into New York nursing homes.  Since his policy was widely publicized, Cuomo has received criticism from the right and left.  However, the tides are changing and the left is working frantically to coverup Cuomo's mi...

We are very lucky to be joined by COVID-19 data expert Justin Hart today!  Justin is a data whiz in San Diego who has dedicated his time to exposing the truth about the virus.   As you know, the mainstream media is using COVID facts and figures to fit their narrative.  They use phrases like "staggering case numbers" and "crowded hospitals" -- but are those characterizations accurate...

The story of Casey Diaz will shake you to your core.  Casey is a former Los Angeles gang member who was sent to one of the most dangerous jails in the country to serve out his sentence.  He was a “shot caller” which is a high ranking gang member that is considered one of the most dangerous inmates.  Casey’s life was changed when he discovered the power of Christ in prison and his st...

We've got bad news coming from California!  Governor Gavin Newsom has decided to lock down the state AGAIN with no date in sight to reopen.  Hair salons, gyms, churches, and barber shops in most counties will cease indoor operations.  We're in for another long "quarantine" even though deaths continue to decline in the state.  Will this madness end or will more states follow sui...

Today we're podcasting from Wine County in Sonoma, California!  After the virus madness -- we tried to get away for the weekend up north.  It was a delightful weekend but an interesting one as the coronavirus regulations have devastated California's beautiful wine country, an area that has barely been affected by the coronavirus.  We give you the scoop on what to expect next time yo...

In case you thought it couldn't get any crazier -- Governor Cuomo has launched an internal investigation into the thousands of deaths in New York nursing homes.  Would you believe he found someone one else to blame? It's incredible how Cuomo has decided to absolve himself from his own disaster that crippled nursing homes in the state.  Also on today's episode we look at some shocking sta...

Cultural Marxism is growing throughout the country.  Whether it’s the riots burning down our cities or the rabid cancel culture infecting social media and the workplace -- it’s everywhere and it has got to stop. On this week’s episode of The Ann & Phelim Scoop, we’re joined by Eric Metaxas to talk about the growth of cultural Marxism in our society and how you and I can help stop it. Watc...

This week's hot topic is whether or not students should return to school.  Yesterday President Trump tweeted his support for students returning to classrooms just as Harvard University announced that they would be online for the 2020 to 2021 semester.  You won't believe how much Harvard is charging their students to learn online! ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) also announced y...

Governor Gavin Newsom had a weekend chock full of bad publicity!  There were massive gatherings in the Hollywood Hills, plenty of beachgoers defying the beach closures, and a massive display of fireworks across the state.  It appears that Californians are becoming tired of draconian politicians and their restrictive lockdown orders and blatant hypocrisy.  We also tell you about our...

Today we are heading to the beach!  It's July 3rd and Los Angeles County has closed the beaches in order to "curb the spread of the virus."  It is absolutely ridiculous.  Just a few days ago Gavin Newsom and Eric Garcetti were encouraging mass protests of thousands in the street.  If Black Lives Matter can protest -- families can spend their holiday weekend at the beach. ...

Yesterday Gavin Newsom announced his second lockdown which will close indoor dining in 19 California counties which make up the majority of California's population.  The new regulations will devastate businesses that have just begun to recover from Newsom's original lockdown.  The new regulations also close all bars in the 19 counties -- will they close permanently?  We discuss what...

While Black Lives Matter Activists try to slander and defund the police we’ve brought you one of our favorite law enforcement officers on this week’s episode of the Ann & Phelim Scoop!  Today we are joined by the REAL Detective Jim Wood who was played by Dean Cain in our movie Gosnell that so many of you are familiar with.  We are honored to have him on this special Independence Day...

We are not happy.  After three months of torture from unelected government bureaucrats it feels like we are going all the way back to the full lockdown we had just a few weeks ago.  Except it's worse because we know none of these new rules are based on science.  Los Angeles County has closed all of their beaches for the July 4th weekend.  Governor Gavin Newsom has mandated that...

The media is in an absolute frenzy trying to prompt another lockdown.  It's true that coronavirus cases have risen in many states but it is likely the result of increased testing.  Additionally, should we be surprised that reopening has lead to more cases of the virus?  The lockdown was never intended to stop transmission, it was to stop hospitals from being overloaded.  Additi...

It can get more ridiculous.  A new article in the Washington Post is now blaming Fox News, Sean Hannity, and Tucker Carlson for coronavirus deaths.  But not all murderers are equal!  The Post tries their best to blame one Fox News host for the more virus deaths than the other.  We break down this bogus article from the Washington Post -- can you believe they even published this...

We are nearly four months into the two week lockdown to flatten the curve and one thing continues to be glaringly obvious -- the mainstream science has been WRONG.  Whether it's the doomsday predictions from Neil Ferguson or the flip-flop on mask mandates from Doctor Fauci -- the mainstream science has been a colossal failure.  On today's episode we take a look at a new study that could...

“Cancel culture” insanity has consumed the country!  Whether it’s destroying historic statutes or condemning depictions of “white Jesus” the left is working overtime to dismantle every aspect of our culture.  And while Black Lives Matter radicals like Shaun King call for Jesus to be cancelled we disagree!  On this week’s podcast we bring you the story of The Chosen -- an innovative...

If you ask Phelim, he'll tell you he thinks it's very unlikely that we will see any presidential debates this year.  He might be right because the University of Michigan has cancelled their plans to host one of the debates this year due to the coronavirus.  Will other universities follow their lead?  We discuss whether we will be able to see the candidates battle out their ideas on...

The media's fear tactics are growing as coronavirus cases rise in many states.  Of course, there's much more to the story!  We examine the latest in The New York Times and explain how their selective reporting could be contributing unnecessarily to the fear surrounding the "uptick" in cases.  It makes us wonder why the establishment aren't working to fully dedicating our resources t...

Economic destruction . . . excess deaths . . . any sane person would be wary of another COVID-19 lockdown but the media is begging for the economy to be shutdown again.  They're telling stories of "case and hospitalization" spikes that have no direct correlation to the severity of the virus.  On today's episode we debunk the media's hysteria and examine the legitimacy of the media's clai...

After what appeared to be a massive flip-flop on the effectiveness of masks to prevent the spread of coronavirus, Dr. Fauci has finally admitted to lying about the use of masks.  Earlier this year Dr. Fauci told Americans on 60 minutes that wearing a mask was not an effective way to prevent the spread of the virus.  Later, he changed his mind and encouraged all Americans to wear a mask....

The media has been fanning the flames of the Black Lives Matter protests that have spread throughout the country.  On this week’s episode of the Scoop we are DEBUNKING one of the media’s biggest lies about Black Lives Matter, one of their favorite chants, “Hands up, don’t shoot.”     This phrase is a complete lie that stems from the shooting of Michael Brown in 2014. After the...

The City of Los Angeles is learning a hard lesson -- sometimes you run out of other people's money!  The coronavirus pandemic shut down Los Angeles for three months and then saw riots, looting, and protests that forced the LAPD to work copious amounts of overtime.  The LAPD has announced that these officer won't be paid for their work and they will instead receive time off.  All non...

Dr. Fauci has returned with another unreasonable request!  He spoke to the Guardian this past week and discouraged any recreational international travel likely until there is a coronavirus vaccine.  This will have a devastating effect on the economy and it makes us wonder if Dr. Fauci would continue to have these views if he were not receiving his salary like millions of Americans are ri...
