Key Topics & Discussion Points

1. UN General Assembly Recap & Trump’s Off-the-Cuff Speech

Guest: Anna Kelly (White House Deputy Press Secretary)
Key time: 00:34–12:40

• Eric recaps market trends before moving to Trump’s UNGA speech, focusing on incidents involving a broken escalator and teleprompter mishap, leading Trump to ad-lib for an hour instead of his allotted 15 minutes.

• The Secret Service is investigating the escalator incident, with speculation it may have been an intentional prank (02:28).

• Anna Kelly: Defends Trump's composure and highlights how the unscripted speech addressed energy, immigration, and “radical globalist policies” said to be harming Western nations.

  “He did what he does best. He told the truth. He did it directly to the globalists in the audience…making America the last defender of Western civilization in this world.”
  —Anna Kelly at [02:58]

• Eric speculates about a hypothetical Trump walkout from the UN—Anna notes Trump already “ended 7 conflicts in 8 months” and chides the UN for underperforming on its peacekeeping responsibilities (04:24).

• Trump critiques the UN's effectiveness, with Anna summarizing his take: “The only thing he got out of the UN was a broken escalator and a broken teleprompter. But nonetheless, it was a great speech.” [04:24]

2. Ukraine, NATO, and Shifting US Foreign Policy

Key time: 05:25–12:31

• Discussion turns to Trump’s stance on Ukraine, where he pushes for NATO and Europe to bear more of the financial and military burden (06:29–08:45).

• Anna emphasizes a shift from “billions and billions of unchecked dollars” under Biden to a model where NATO allies use US arms (06:29).

  “Europe needs to take charge of their own defense…stop purchasing Russian oil and funding this war.”
  —Anna Kelly at [08:45]

• Eric notes MAGA’s skepticism about continued US involvement and aid:

  “Most of the MAGA…doesn't want any more of that. We don't want to spend any more money. We don't want to lose any more blood or treasure in foreign wars that don't affect us directly.”
  —Eric at [07:56]

• Turkey’s ambiguous role in the conflict and relationship with the US is discussed. Anna is cautious, saying Trump will “look anyone in the eye to deliver better results.” (11:11)

• Brief mention of Trump’s pushback on Macron’s support for recognizing Palestine, returning to Trump’s prioritization of hostage releases and regional disarmament.

3. Free Speech, Censorship, and Media Double Standards

Key time: 16:23–24:07

• Eric reacts to Jimmy Kimmel’s return to TV after being suspended for controversial comments about the assassination of Charlie Kirk, framing it as a free speech issue.

• He draws a parallel between perceived overreactions to left-wing speech and years of conservative voices being “censored,” especially under Biden’s administration (17:42).

• Quote:

  “The Biden tyrants pressured YouTube to censor conservatives, to terminate our accounts…Democrats called it fascism when Disney suspended Kimmel for six days, but not the fact that conservatives or dissenting voices were silenced for five years.”
  —Eric at [18:11]

• Eric reiterates his commitment to constitutional principles:

  “I'm a constitutional ab-solutionist…It's not living, breathing, or changing. It's firm. I carry a copy of the Constitution as a reminder…”
  —Eric at [19:11]

4. COVID, Ivermectin, and Health Controversies

Guest: Dr. Ben Tepper (Director of Epigenetics, The Wellness Company)
Key time: 25:18–30:20

• The use of Ivermectin receives renewed attention, with both Eric and Dr. Tepper touting its safety and effectiveness during COVID, and criticizing the media and government for pushing alternative narratives (26:31).

  “This drug is…a very powerful drug.”
  —Dr. Tepper at [26:51]

• Dr. Tepper says Ivermectin is safe for internal and topical (skin) use, especially for inflammatory skin issues (27:15–27:38).

• Discussion includes speculation that “Big Pharma” and Fauci suppressed non-vaccine therapeutics for business/political reasons (28:05).

• General health advice around COVID and the flu season: sunlight (vitamin D3) and “prevention kits” promoted (29:00–30:20).

5. Heightened Political Rhetoric and Recent Violence

Guest: Harmeet Dhillon (Assistant Attorney General, Civil Rights Division)
Key time: 37:41–47:50

• Eric and Harmeet discuss the sniper shooting at the Dallas ICE facility, with a focus on the politicization of rhetoric and claims that anti-ICE and Antifa-style sentiments are fueling violence.

  “We've seen escalating rhetoric against our federal law enforcement officials…from people including Governor Gavin Newsom…It’s not consequence free.”
  —Harmeet Dhillon at [38:55]

• Eric offers several examples of recent violence allegedly linked to leftwing rhetoric, emphasizing that “words matter.”

• Harmeet and Eric criticize California’s policy requiring ICE agents to unmask and provide ID during operations, calling it dangerous virtue signaling (41:30–45:32):

  “Gavin, your law is not constitutional. It will not be upheld in court…it is embarrassing for a state legislature to waste its time doing this instead of doing its job to keep its citizens safe.”
  —Harmeet Dhillon at [44:42]

• Antifa is designated as a terrorist organization by Trump; Harmeet supports the move and describes Antifa’s cellular, paramilitary structure (46:03–47:50).

Episode Tone & Takeaways

This episode is unapologetically nationalistic, skeptical of international organizations, highly critical of left-leaning government and media, and positions itself squarely as a defender of traditional American values, particularly free speech and strong borders.

Humor, sarcasm, and directness dominate the hosts’ communication style—listeners are expected to share the worldview or be open to a bracing critique of establishment narratives.
