WorldAccordingToYoni's podcast

Welcome to the new season of The World According To Yoni! After an extended hiatus from the airwaves, Yoni returns just in time to share his thoughts on President Biden pulling out of the presidential race, as well as the "assassination" attempt on Donald Trump and lots more. We think you'll find his time off has not blunted Yoni's passion or thinking.

Yoni flies solo (meaning no guest) for this very personal show. The past month has been one that's frightening and scary throughout the world. Between the events in Israel and Gaza, to the insanity going on in the United States and around the world, Yoni has a lot to get off his chest, which he does with brutal honesty. This is an almost completely political episode you won't want to miss.

After a somewhat lengthy absence (don't ask why — you really don't want to know), The World According to Yoni is back with friend of the show, Dwayne Epstein, author of the new Amazon Best-Seller, Killing Generals: The Making of The Dirty Dozen , a wonderful follow-up to his last book (and NY Times Best Seller), Lee Marvin: Point Blank .

We think the title pretty much says it all. Yoni really is pissed off! Why? American politics (as usual); his wife having a serious accident which didn't need to happen; an outrageous move by the German government toward the family of a holocaust survivor; the deaths of Stephen Sondheim and Mike Nesmith. Really? What more does one need? Again, a word of warning to the easily offended — yet again,...

Well, we're still in President Biden's first week, and the Executive Orders are flying left and right, in an attempt to salvage the damage done to the country by our new Prez's predecessor. The insurgent traitors are getting bail, and Mitch McConnell and the RethugliKKKans still don't want to admit they lost. Meanwhile, Yoni continues hacking up a lung. Can another Covid test be far behind?
