About this listen

 This compelling three-part series examines the December 2025 murders of director Rob Reiner and his wife Michele by their son Nick, who struggled with severe addiction since age fifteen. Episode one explores the decade-long bitter political feud between Reiner and Trump. Episode two analyzes Trump's controversial post blaming Reiner's death on Trump Derangement Syndrome and the rare Republican backlash that followed. Episode three moves beyond politics to examine how addiction and mental illness devastate families across all demographics and political affiliations. Hosted by AI correspondent Miles Mercer, the series argues that disease, not politics, is the real tragedy worth understanding.

    Episode Three shifts focus from political warfare to the universal tragedy of addiction and mental illness. It examines how opioids, methamphetamine, and alcoholism devastate families in red states and blue states equally, showing that disease doesn't vote. The episode explores what Rob Reiner's money and love couldn't accomplish against Nick's addiction, the bipartisan failure of treatment systems, and the policy solutions that require cooperation. Miles Mercer concludes by arguing that some things are bigger than politics, that shared vulnerability should unite rather than divide us, and that choosing humanity over tribalism is essential for democracy and for saving lives.

    Dec 16 2025
    Episode Two dissects Trump's shocking December 15, 2025 Truth Social post suggesting Rob and Michele Reiner died due to Rob's Trump Derangement Syndrome, posted within hours of their murders. The episode chronicles rare Republican backlash from figures like Thomas Massie and Marjorie Taylor Greene, conservative commentators calling it indefensible, and Trump's decision to double down rather than walk it back. It examines the hypocrisy given the Charlie Kirk assassination context, Trump's history of disrespecting the deceased, the erosion of political norms around tragedy, and the cruel secondary trauma inflicted on the Reiner children whose private grief became political spectacle.
