Howard Stern has transformed from the over-the-top, say anything shock jock that made him famous in the ‘90s into a bootlicking shill for the establishment. This was never more on display than during the recent interview with Joe Biden, who received a tongue bath from Stern worthy of any MSNBC anchor. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss whether Stern has always been this way or the $400 million he got from Sirius XM turned him into a rank elite apologist. Plus segments on the stri...
May 03, 2024•1 hr 2 min•Transcript available on Metacast SNL’s Colin Jost hosted this year’s White House Correspondents’ Dinner, and after poking mild fun at Joe Biden over his age and slumping poll numbers, concluded the evening by praising the President for his “decency.” Not mentioned — Biden’s long record of racism, support for segregationists, near-constant warmongering and the litany of lies he’s told over the years — he’s just a decent guy! Guest host Russell Dobular is joined by Jimmy, Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger, Due Dissidence co-host K...
May 01, 2024•1 hr 2 min•Transcript available on Metacast House Speaker Mike Johnson recently traveled to Columbia to add his voice to the chorus of recriminations against pro-Palestinian protesters on campus while also continuing to peddle debunked allegations against Hamas. In response, he got to face recriminations of his own in the form of jeers from the Columbia students chanting “Mike, you suck!” Guest host Russell Dobular is joined by his Due Dissidence co-host Keaton Weiss to discuss Johnson’s genocide support. Plus a segment about the disturbi...
Apr 29, 2024•1 hr•Transcript available on Metacast Since its inception Tesla’s much-ballyhooed Cybertruck has faced production woes and manufacturing quality issues. The latest concern: a faulty gas pedal that sticks, resulting in a recall of all Cybertrucks currently on the road. Guest host Russell Dobular is joined by Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger and Due Dissidence co-host Keaton Weiss to discuss why anyone would have purchased a vehicle plagued by so many problems. Plus segments on MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough effecting a surprise about-face o...
Apr 28, 2024•1 hr 2 min•Transcript available on Metacast After much debate, consternation and wheeling and dealing, House Speaker Mike Johnson has navigated a series of bills to provide more than $90 billion in war funding for Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan. Republicans were much more likely to oppose the bills, in particular the Ukraine funding, but Johnson pushed the funding through primarily with the help of Democrats. Guest host Russell Dobular is joined by Jimmy, Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger and Due Dissidence co-host Keaton Weiss to discuss whet...
Apr 24, 2024•1 hr 1 min•Transcript available on Metacast Young, handsome, famous and profiled in the New York Times? Life is pretty sweet for Jackson Hinkle, even if the Times profile in question consists of equal parts smear job and puff piece. In fact, the entire article is riddled with innuendo, aspersions and intimations — without any actual evidence — that Hinkle is spreading misinformation and is being paid by nefarious foreign governments. Oh, and he pockets money given to him by supporters online! Imagine! Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Me...
Apr 22, 2024•59 min•Transcript available on Metacast Veteran NPR editor Uri Berliner has blown the whistle on how the publicly-funded broadcaster has become an activist organization obsessed with pushing progressive ideals. Berliner argues that NPR has gone from a respected information source to one that can no longer be trusted to honestly cover the news. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss why NPR sucks so terribly. Plus segments on comedian Bill Burr’s takedown of the argument that WNBA players should be paid more and GOP Congres...
Apr 19, 2024•59 min•Transcript available on Metacast Former Iraqi weapons inspector Scott Ritter has emerged as one of the premier critics of American foreign policy, and lately has set his sights on Israel’s genocidal assault on Gaza and the recent strikes on Israel from Iran. The strikes were much more successful than the mainstream media is letting on, he tells Jimmy, and shocked Israel with how well they circumvented the much-vaunted Iron Dome defense system. Ritter joins Jimmy to explain just how calamitously Israel’s defenses performed again...
Apr 17, 2024•1 hr•Transcript available on Metacast Investigative journalist Lee Fang appeared on The Jimmy Dore Show to describe the sprawling constellation of media outlets in Ukraine, organized with substantial funding and direction from the U.S. government, that has supported strong censorship laws and shutdowns of dissident outlets, disseminated disinformation of its own, and sought to silence critics of the war, including Jimmy Dore, Glenn Greenwald and Aaron Maté. American taxpayers are indirectly funding their own censorship to aid the fl...
Apr 15, 2024•1 hr•Transcript available on Metacast While establishment support for the Israeli assault on Gaza has been nearly unanimous, a few Squad members notwithstanding, additional fissures have recently emerged in that wall of consensus. Specifically, the list of Israel critics has recently added prominent powerful figures including Elizabeth Warren, Nancy Pelosi, Richard Haass and even an advisor to former Bush administration official Condoleezza Rice. Guest host Russell Dobular is joined by Due Dissidence’s Keaton Weiss and Jimmy Dore to...
Apr 12, 2024•59 min•Transcript available on Metacast Donald Trump has — finally, after much delay — weighed in on the abortion issue. And his position is that he did a great thing by appointing Supreme Court Justices who would overturn Roe v Wade but now the decision about whether to ban abortion, or after what period of gestation to make such bans, should be left to the states. It’s a deeply political stance without much in terms of conviction, and could risk a reaction from his ardent evangelical base. Guest host Russell Dobular and his Due Diss...
Apr 10, 2024•1 hr 1 min•Transcript available on Metacast Popular podcaster Joe Rogan reacted strongly to what he felt was a demonstrably dunderheaded discussion about race by the hosts of The View while speaking with author and journalist Coleman Hughes, “It is the show that people love to hate,” Rogan said. “They get so much hate-watching … and viral clips of them saying ridiculous things. It is a rabies-infested hen house. Guest host Russell Dobular and his Due Dissidence co-host Keaton Weiss discuss The View's handling of Hughes' perspectives on ra...
Apr 08, 2024•58 min•Transcript available on Metacast Israel killed seven aid workers operating in Gaza, spurring international outrage. The aid workers hailed from Australia, Britain and the US, among other nations, and were driving in vehicles clearly marked as aid trucks and with the approval of the IDF. Now, as a result, other aid organizations are pulling out of Gaza, increasing the likelihood that hundreds of thousands of Palestinians will face starvation in the near future. Guest host Russell Dobular and his Due Dissidence co-host Keaton Wei...
Apr 05, 2024•1 hr 1 min•Transcript available on Metacast Since the October 7th Hamas attacks and the subsequent Israeli military assault on Gaza, many prominent “free speech warriors” on the right have exposed themselves as no different from the censorship-crazed “Woke” left they ridicule and excoriate. Most recently Ben Shapiro and Dave Rubin sat down to explain away how it was OK for Shapiro’s Daily Wire to part ways with Candace Owens over the latter’s comments critical of Israel. Guest host Russell Dobular and his Due Dissidence co-host Keaton Wei...
Apr 03, 2024•1 hr•Transcript available on Metacast Jon Stewart returned to the Daily Show with a humorous critique of both Donald Trump and Joe Biden. But his Biden-supporting sh*tlib viewers and friends couldn’t tolerate that, so Jon has had to backtrack, the latest example coming in his segment ripping into Donald Trump for overvaluing his properties when seeking bank loans while undervaluing those same properties for tax purposes. Except as some internet sleuths discovered, Stewart himself vastly undervalued his own NYC home for tax purposes ...
Apr 01, 2024•1 hr 1 min•Transcript available on Metacast As information comes out about the recent cargo ship bridge disaster in Baltimore, one area of concern relates to the cargo ship company’s track record of silencing whistleblowers who raised concerns about safety issues. In fact, the company illegally required employees to first come to the company with safety concerns before informing federal authorities. Jimmy and Due Dissidence host Russell Dobular discuss the company, Maersk, and what corners might be routinely cut to deliver its shareholder...
Mar 29, 2024•1 hr•Transcript available on Metacast Donald Trump got a last-minute reprieve from having to come up with a $454 million bond to appeal his civil fraud judgment as an appellate court reduced the bond to a more manageable $175 million. He will now have ten days to compile funds commensurate with the lesser figure, at which point he will be allowed to proceed with the appeal. Jimmy and Due Dissidence host Keaton Weiss discuss the politically motivated legal attack on Trump and whether the likely outcome will be the precise opposite of...
Mar 27, 2024•1 hr 2 min•Transcript available on Metacast Since its inception the CIA has been a nefarious operation, overthrowing governments, assassinating foreign leaders, fomenting rebellions and generally immiserating wide swaths of the world in the interests of corporate power and greed. But that’s all over now, at least according to Ana and Cenk of The Young Turks. Today’s CIA is too incompetent to pull any of that sort of stuff off, they say, ignoring what’s going on in, say, Ukraine. Or Syria. Or Haiti. Or Pakistan. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedi...
Mar 26, 2024•1 hr 6 min•Transcript available on Metacast During a recent campaign appearance, Donald Trump said that if he wins in 2024 he will impose a 100% tax on vehicles manufactured in Mexico but that if he fails to defeat Joe Biden, there will be a “bloodbath.” Liberal heads instantly exploded over Trump’s obvious call for political violence, or so they claimed. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss Morning Joe Scarborough’s leading the demented charge to indict Trump for using what is a commonplace term — one he himself has often u...
Mar 22, 2024•1 hr•Transcript available on Metacast There's more to the proposed TikTok ban currently being considered in Congress than merely an attempt to silence a social media platform elite interests can't control. As Jimmy discusses with Dr. Robert Malone, Congressman Thomas Massie has exposed that the legislation will be far-reaching, and allow the government to eliminate any website or even internet hosting service. This is why Massie describes the bill as a "Trojan Horse" for mass online government censorship. Plus a segment on the co-op...
Mar 20, 2024•1 hr•Transcript available on Metacast After losing his CNN hosting gig, Don Lemon was supposed to enjoy a soft landing at X/Twitter, where he was given the opportunity to host a whole new show. But that didn’t happen after a tense interview with Elon Musk during which Lemon applauded the X CEO for promoting free speech by adding Lemon’s show but criticized him for NOT censoring what Lemon termed “hate speech.” Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss why it’s a bad idea for tech industry billionaires to decide what speech ...
Mar 18, 2024•1 hr 2 min•Transcript available on Metacast Online commentator Ben Shapiro is NOT a fan of Social Security. In fact, he believes that the concept of retirement itself is outlandish, and people should continue working as long as they are physically capable of doing so. And they certainly should not begin getting payouts from the government at age 65, he says. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss how Shapiro not only gets the retirement age in the United States wrong (it’s 67), but that he is clearly so cloistered in his eliti...
Mar 15, 2024•58 min•Transcript available on Metacast In case you’re unaware that Robert DeNiro hates Donald Trump, the Academy Award-winning actor went on Bill Maher’s show to explain that Trump is really bad and that another Trump presidency would represent a “nightmare.” Yet as Maher points out, Trump is winning in polls and gaining — a reality that DeNiro has no answer for. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the way our media platforms the least-informed like DeNiro to talk about Trump even though he can’t even explain why he ha...
Mar 13, 2024•59 min•Transcript available on Metacast Joe Biden delivered his much-anticipated State of the Union address, and not surprisingly the lies, duplicity, warmongering and pure service to the ruling class were all on display. Biden even opened to bipartisan applause in calling for pushing the pointless, horrific Ukraine War as a means of “deterring” Putin. And the rest was no better. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss how little Biden addressed actual problems being faced by the vast majority of Americans. Plus segments on...
Mar 11, 2024•1 hr•Transcript available on Metacast As the New York Times “reporting” on allegations of widespread sexual violence during Hamas’ October 7th attacks falls apart, The Intercept is taking credit for exposing The Times. One problem? As The Grayzone's Max Blumenthal explains, The Intercept repeated the same allegations, and then later ripped off reporting exposing the Times from The Grayzone and other outlets. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger talk to Blumenthal about how The Intercept — and Democracy Now — operate as interme...
Mar 08, 2024•1 hr 1 min•Transcript available on Metacast Political pundits Thomas Schiller and Paul Waldman recently appeared on MSNBC with Mike Brzezinski to explain what a threat to democracy is posed by rural voters. These Trump supporters are racists, misogynists, anti-immigrant and violent, the pundits argue, and need to be dealt with. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss how Schiller and Waldman undermine their own argument by identifying the pain rural America has experienced and that Trump has exploited. Plus segments on the Janu...
Mar 06, 2024•1 hr 1 min•Transcript available on Metacast Dr. Thomas Seyfried has been researching cancer treatment for decades, and he says the underlying theory for how we treat cancer — based on the premise that cancer is a genetic disorder — is all wrong. Instead, cancer is a mitochondrial disorder that is much more effectively treated by starving the cancer cells of the specific nutrients that they need to survive and grow. Jimmy talks to Dr. Seyfried about the history of cancer treatment, how his research led to his conclusions and all the proble...

Plus segments on the New York Times’ feverish backpedaling after hiring a non-journalist and former Israeli intelligence agent t...
Feb 28, 2024•59 min•Transcript available on Metacast During a recent Daily Show broadcast, Jon Stewart criticized Tucker Carlson for favorably comparing Russian subway stations’ cleanliness to what one typically sees in American cities, in particular New York. The filth and squalor on display in the New York subway system, Stewart says, is the “price of freedom” — the kind of freedom Russians don’t enjoy. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger talk to podcaster Mel K about how Stewart has gone from a critic of neoliberalism and neocons to an a...
