  • Trump Brags About Secret “Discombobulator” Weapon Amid Global Epstein Fallout | Jon Shenk and Marcus Capone

    Trump Brags About Secret “Discombobulator” Weapon Amid Global Epstein Fallout | Jon Shenk and Marcus Capone
    Feb 6 2026
    Michael Kosta covers Trump's loose-lipped revelation of a secret military weapon he calls "the Discombobulator" and how fallout from the latest dump of Epstein emails is affecting prominent global figures, including the Andrew formerly known as Prince being forced into the time-out castle, his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson shutting down her charity, and even Bill Clinton, who is set to testify about Epstein before Congress. Meanwhile, despite Trump's many mentions in the Epstein files, the president continues to remain off the hook. Desi Lydic unpacks Trump’s long-term beef with the NFL over reduced violence, racist name reversals, halftime performers, and the pageantry of the kickoff. After rejecting Trump’s advances to buy the Buffalo Bills, a 2014 conversation with Stephen A. Smith begs the difficult question: Is the NFL responsible for Trump’s presidency? Michael Kosta is joined by director Jon Shenk and former Navy SEAL Marcus Capone, whose experience healing trauma through an experimental psychedelic treatment in Mexico is shared in the Netflix documentary, “In Waves and War”. Capone discusses the treatment process of the ibogaine drug and how it affected him, his nonprofit, VETS, which helps other veterans access the drug, and his advice for young Navy SEALs. Shenk explains what drew him to the story, using animation to illustrate an ibogaine trip, and the movements to bring this treatment stateside. Learn more about your ad choices.

    Trump Attacks CNN's Kaitlan Collins Over Epstein Q & Renovates D.C. in His Image | Ms. Pat
    Feb 5 2026
    Michael Kosta dives into Trump’s recent moves to steer the country back on track, which include the release of lame new “America Is Back” hats, telling CNN’s Kaitlan Collins to get over the Epstein files and smile more, and continuing his D.C. makeover by building a massive arch across from the Lincoln Memorial. Plus, Grace Kuhlenschmidt shares further updates on the president’s construction rampage. The state that brought you President Ronald Reagan and Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger offers a thrilling new contender for the White House: Governor Gavin Newsom. From enduring humble nepo baby beginnings in San Francisco, to opening a winery backed by an oil tycoon, to casting himself as an all-caps-posting foil to President Trump, Newsom is ready to make his national debut as a 2028 presidential candidate. This is the Daily Showography of Gavin Newsom. Ms. Pat, comedian, actor, and co-creator of the hit BET+ series, "The Ms. Pat Show," sits down with Michael Kosta to discuss the show's fifth season. They talk about fighting through network pulls for the chance to speak out about immigration, portraying a unique-yet-universal mother to viewers, preparing for a doomsday scenario in the current administration, and learning to believe in herself after being shot, abused, and incarcerated.

  • Trump Floats Canceling Midterms & MAGA Pushes Alt Super Bowl Halftime Show | Paul Rosolie

    Trump Floats Canceling Midterms & MAGA Pushes Alt Super Bowl Halftime Show | Paul Rosolie
    Feb 4 2026
    Conservatives amp up their mission to MAGA-fy America by overshadowing Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl performance with Turning Point USA’s own D-list halftime show, and Michael Kosta connects the dots between Trump’s call for Republicans to "nationalize" voting and the president's never-ending claim that the 2020 election was stolen. Plus, Troy Iwata explains why Trump’s pitch to cancel the midterms is peak comedy. With Amazon’s $40 million documentary about the first lady premiering at the Trump Kennedy Center, Jordan Klepper ventured to Washington, D.C., where he chatted with attendees about director Brett Ratner’s appearance in the Epstein files, whether the film’s purchase was a bribe, and why THIS is what our country should be focused on right now — not Minneapolis. Amazon rainforest conservationist, wildlife filmmaker, and author Paul Rosolie talks to Michael about his latest book, “Junglekeeper: What It Takes to Change the World.” They discuss how Rosolie’s quest for adventure led him to the wilderness of the Amazon rainforest and the importance of preserving an ecosystem that produces one-fifth of the world’s fresh water and oxygen and is home to ancient trees that have acted as “skyscrapers of life” to thousands of species for over a millennium. He describes how the organization he founded, Junglekeepers, works with indigenous communities to protect the Amazon, how his historic encounter with a previously uncontacted tribe is a result of deforestation pressuring them out of seclusion, and how people worldwide can take actions big and small to help conservation efforts.
