  • Nicholas Kristof: Gratuitous Cruelty

    Nicholas Kristof: Gratuitous Cruelty
    Jun 27 2025
    A miracle food paste that fights malnutrition in children, that taxpayers have already paid for, is collecting dust in warehouses. Donated drugs for parasitic infections remain undistributed and are nearing their expiration dates. American-purchased ambulances sit idle because they have no gas. USAID was shut down in the name of government efficiency, but instead, we've spent at least $6 billion to dismantle it—and we've killed a lot of kids in the process, despite what Elon and Marco Rubio say. Plus, Elissa Slotkin on her 'Economic War Plan,' and the challenges for Dems on housing, and connecting with the working class.

    Nick Kristof and Sen. Elissa Slotkin join Tim Miller for the weekend pod.

    Michael Weiss and Jonathan Cohn: Animal House at the Pentagon
    Jun 26 2025
    Trump was so awestruck by Israel's intel infiltration and air supremacy over Iran that he just had to give himself an executive producer credit. And he's casting his appointees to help create a Hollywood ending—including using his Val Kilmer-esque SecDef to spike the success of the long-teased, "secret" military operation. At the same time, Trump is having trouble leveraging the intelligence community's confirmation of what happened in Iran since he's spent a decade undermining its credibility among his supporters. Plus, NATO gets a little cringe toward Daddy Trump, Ukraine doesn't get the same credit as Israel, and the low-down on the Republican bill that would close rural hospitals and cut healthcare for 11 million people.

    Jon Cohn and Michael Weiss join Tim Miller.

  • Derek Thompson: Winning Without Anger

    Derek Thompson: Winning Without Anger
    Jun 25 2025
    A DSA candidate winning a Democratic primary in New York City is not an ideal laboratory for other Dems to draw lessons from, but Mamdani sounded authentic, he successfully juggled our fragmented media environment, and he had the right message for this cost-of-living moment—as well as the proper amount of party heresy for this anti-establishment age. Meanwhile, the Republican tax and budget bill is shockingly out of step with the affordability crisis we are living through. Plus, the dangers of the coming AI wave, Ozempic may be one of the most astonishing medical breakthroughs in the last 100 years, and would shortening the NBA season reduce player injuries?

In the beginning, I had really enjoyed and loved the podcast until I had gotten tired of Tim Miller's ability to play a very dark devil's advocate. i found it so dark that I began to wonder if he knew and liked the "devil." Try it for yourself, though, because your experience may be different. All that said I have just followed his Hollywood podcast and just seeing the show's 'bio' I'm gonna loved it.

Tim is outstandingly quick Twitter and amusing while possessing an extra sense for what maybe going on out there...great guests with which Tim continually demonstrates a genuine report - even when opinions don't exactly align. Amazing that he puts out top shelf product on a daily basis...obviously, he never stops listening, thinking, asking, etc. ...strongly opinionated with facts to back him!

Tim never fails!

This interview was so helpful in putting the listener in that kibbutz on the day of the attack. Mona barely had to ask questions because the storyteller was a fellow journalist. I benefited from his reasoned explanations of the now and the potential future for the government and the region.

I would consider myself somewhere inside the shrinking center-left bubble of our vastly expanding political spectrum, likely more in line with the Pod Save/Crooked Media crowd on most issues. But hell if Tim and the Bulwark boys(and girls, love A.B. and Sarah) don't always provide some intelligent and nuanced insight on the current political climate with occasional doses of sarcasm and mockery. Tim might have failed in Washington, but he's got a daily listener in me going forward, whatever that's worth! ;)
