Why We Do Politics. With Charlie Sykes

Tom LoBianco Reports ·

2025/10/20

Charlie Sykes and I taped this show shortly after Trump, Brendan Carr and a host of corporate interests censored Jimmy Kimmel. But this was before I set up the podcast stream, so coming off the second No Kings weekend (which seems to have pissed off the president enough to ask ChatGPT to make a short video) seems like a good time to finally publish our chat here. Charlie's wit and wisdom are elevated by the gravity of this moment. He's in rare form: call a fascist what they are, when authoritarians

Why did so many people think the world would end Sept. 23? How have charismatic Pentecostals inserted themselves as the new gatekeepers between God and their followers? What is the New Apostolic Reformation?? How did it become the de facto state religion of Donald Trump? And has it completely supplanted conservative evangelicals as the dominant power on the right? Matthew Taylor, Ph. D., author and podcast host on the show today to tell us how this group grew from a small offshoot of the Hippie

Years ago, “Crossfire” set the tone for partisan combat on-air, foreshadowing a transformed media environment in which hyperpartisan is now the norm instead of an edgy new thing. Now, C-SPAN, helmed by former CNN Washington bureau chief Sam Feist, is debuting the opposite of “Crossfire”, a new show which reveals just how much perceived “enemies” actually have in common. It’s called “Ceasefire” and it premieres tonight (Friday) at 7p ET, with as unlikely a pairing as you’d expect to break bread —

Longtime social justice warrior and ice cream legend Ben Cohen joins me on the show today. The Ben in Ben & Jerry's went deep on everything from military spending and George Floyd to the ascendant populist left, Bernie Sanders and the secret process for developing a new flavor of Ben & Jerry's! This was a wild one, to get the flavor, I point you to the show notes: 0’00 Ben Cohen agrees with Trump??? 4’10 The world’s worst ice cream flavor 6’30 Why Jerry Greenfield left the company … Jerry has a

The Long, Slow Road to Dictatorship, w/ S.V. Dáte

Tom LoBianco Reports ·

2025/10/09

The frog in boiling water, it doesn't know until it's too late. That is the experience that victims and refugees of dictatorships around the world have long described and this Dictator Creep (TM) of censoring Americans, posting military in our streets, weaponizing the Justice Department and more sure has the feel of what we've seen elsewhere. (It's not supposed to happen here, but it is.) I'm honored to have S.V. Dáte on the show today, he's the longtime White House correspondent for HuffPost, a

America's Free Speech War, w/ Aaron Terr from FIRE

Tom LoBianco Reports ·

2025/09/29

With the White House and the extreme right promising to pursue anyone not deemed to be speaking correctly in the wake of the murder of Charlie Kirk, I brought on the director of public advocacy for FIRE, Aaron Terr. FIRE (The Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression) has been a leading force in the fight to defend the First Amendment regardless of ideology or politics. Terr, a free speech lawyer, explains why "hate speech" is not a legal category which can be used to censor. What is

2025/09/28

You know what sucks in a dictatorship? (Aside from just about everything) The entertainment. And yet that's what autocrats around the world have been pushing for years now, inspired in large part by a man named Viktor Orban in Hungary. So I brought on longtime foreign affairs correspondent Elise Labott to explain. She's been covering global affairs for decades. We talked right after ABC suspended Jimmy Kimmel, and before they reinstated him. Labott, who pens the Cosmopolitics, explained that

2025/09/28

Veteran columnist Matt Lewis has long been my go-to for understanding the intersection of faith and politics. Heck, I even wrote a book on this leaning heavily on his help and guidance (we discuss on the show.) We aired this episode the day after the Charlie Kirk funeral. Matt, who is an evangelical Christian yet not a Trump supporter, talks about his mixed feelings at seeing so many new people drawn to Christ, but then having that tainted by the religion being affixed to a decidedly non-Christian

Hudson, a nationally renowned expert on manners, civility and philosophy, explains: Why politeness is sometimes counteractive to real engagement The ancient lessons of manners and civility which can inform our hyperpartisan environment and cool the national temperature How to engage with people who disagree with you while maintaining your relationship with them *** Tom

2025/09/27

On the pod today, longtime latino voting expert Mike Madrid. He's a co-founder of the Lincoln Project, has run a number of campaigns for Democrats and Republicans and has been studying Latino voter sentiments for decades. His assessment of where things stand, after eight months of America's version of the secret police disappearing hispanics, sometimes overseas, will shock you. I know it did for me. Which is why I was so grateful he could join us. Think this is a guaranteed win for the Democrats
