Barrett & Baxa | 10 Minutes of Truth is where news meets nonsense. Veteran broadcasters and comedians Steve Barrett and Bob Baxa tear apart the headlines, mock media spin, and highlight the absurdity of our cultural circus. Each week they tackle everything from politics and pop culture to bloopers, pet peeves, and “news” stories you’ll never see on the networks. With a mix of sharp commentary, gallows humor, and ridiculous tangents, the show captures the slow, strange death of traditional media in real time. No topic is too serious (or too stupid) to roast. If you like your commentary unfiltered, irreverent, and occasionally unhinged, you’re a PWLTOP now (a Person Who Listens To Our Podcast).

Falling Cats and Rachel Maddow: Decode Media Madness in One Hilarious Episode | Media Schmedia Returns #69
Épisode 69
jeudi 4 décembre 2025 • Durée 42:04
Want to laugh and feel slightly less crazy about the state of the world? In this Media Shmedia comeback special, Steve and Bob unload everything that doesn’t fit into a tidy 10 Minutes of Truth. From a bald eagle dropping a cat through a windshield (yes, really) to small-town TV news disasters, TikTok haters, awkward headshots, and an actual African politician named Adolf Hitler — this episode is basically what happens when cable news, local news, and clown world all show up to the same party.
You’ll also hear about Rachel Maddow mysteriously materializing at Dick Cheney’s funeral, the New York Times turning an illegal-immigrant identity thief into a “co-victim,” Somali fraud scandals in Minnesota, woke campus gatekeepers punishing a Christian student over gender, and a British guy arrested for… posting a Florida vacation photo. Steve and Bob break down how media, academia, and “captured” institutions keep flipping criminals into victims and reality into propaganda — and how to spot the trick. Watch this episode if you want to laugh, yell “you’ve got to be kidding me,” and walk away with sharper media BS radar.

Cats in Hats! The Great Sombrero Meme Meltdown | Ten Minutes of Truth EP 45
Épisode 45
mardi 7 octobre 2025 • Durée 10:35
A sombrero, a meme, and a full-blown meltdown. This episode of 10 Minutes of Truth dives into how a lighthearted social media joke about Hakeem Jeffries sparked outrage among Democrats and the mainstream media—complete with cries of “racism,” “filth,” and “depravity.”
Steve and Bob unpack the absurdity of political hypersensitivity, the death of humor, and why satire is now considered a hate crime by the woke left. From Megan Kelly’s coverage to a Rodney Dangerfield AI cameo, to Kamala Harris as “Nacho President,” this episode proves comedy isn’t dead—it’s just moved online.

Épisode 44
lundi 6 octobre 2025 • Durée 10:15
Washington is once again "shut down"—but does it even matter? Barrett and Baxa break down the government shutdown circus, the media’s overblown coverage, and why most Americans don’t even notice when D.C. hits pause.
From AOC’s selfied “good deed” tour to the absurdity of 10 park rangers needed to close an open-air memorial, this episode exposes how political theater and media manipulation go hand in hand. Plus: a look back at the Clinton-Lewinsky “shutdown special,” the ongoing trust collapse in mainstream media, and the Democrats’ awkward attempt at a 24-hour livestream flop.

Épisode 43
vendredi 3 octobre 2025 • Durée 10:52
In this episode, Barrett and Baxa break down the escalating ICE raids stretching from Chicago to Portland to Iowa, exposing how mainstream media frames the story.
From Operation Midway Blitz in Chicago to a Dallas shooting quickly ignored by the press, the hosts reveal how headlines distort reality and downplay violence against ICE. They also highlight misleading narratives about detained immigrants, including the case of a 5-year-old girl in Massachusetts, and tackle the controversy of journalists getting too close to the action.
With sharp analysis and unapologetic commentary, this episode unmasks the bias and selective outrage driving the immigration debate.

Comey Indicted: The Double Standard Exposed | Ten Minutes of Truth EP 42
Épisode 42
mardi 30 septembre 2025 • Durée 10:31
In this episode of 10 Minutes of Truth with Barrett and Baxa, the spotlight is on the indictment of former FBI Director James Comey for allegedly lying to Congress.
Steve and Bob break down the hypocrisy in media and political reactions—contrasting how Democrats celebrated Trump-era indictments as “rule of law,” but now call Comey’s indictment an abuse of power. The discussion pulls in examples from Joe Scarborough’s past warnings, Andrew Weissmann’s double standard, and the long-running issue of political lawfare. It’s a sharp, fast-paced dive into media bias, hypocrisy, and the dangerous cycle of retribution in American politics.

Trump, Tylenol & TDS: Pregnant Women Popping Pills | Ten Minutes of Truth EP 41
Épisode 41
lundi 29 septembre 2025 • Durée 10:35
President Donald Trump warns that Tylenol may not be safe for pregnant women — and suddenly, progressive women online start posting videos of themselves popping the pills as protest.
Barrett & Baxa break down the insanity, the medical studies going back years, and the media spin around Trump’s comments. From Yale and Mount Sinai research to Time, Reuters, and even Tylenol’s own warnings, the evidence is clear: this isn’t new. But thanks to Trump Derangement Syndrome, common sense goes out the window.
We also highlight how media bias fuels the backlash and why distrust of the press is driving more people to side with Trump, even reluctantly.

Kamala Schmamala: Fake Stories, Softballs & Media Malpractice | Ten Minutes of Truth EP 40
Épisode 40
jeudi 25 septembre 2025 • Durée 11:01
Steve and Bob dive into Kamala Harris’s media blitz as she promotes her new book. From Good Morning America to The View and Rachel Maddow, the interviews are packed with recycled talking points, softball questions, and staged stories.
Barrett & Baxa break down her awkward anecdotes—like Doug “praying in the shower” on election night—and point out her microphone blunders, weak metaphors, and evasive answers on Joe Biden’s health and Pete Buttigieg’s exclusion from the VP ticket. The hosts also expose the media’s unwillingness to press Harris on serious issues like the Charlie Kirk assassination or rising left-wing violence. It’s a sharp critique of the media malpractice that props up politicians with friendly coverage instead of accountability.

Bombs, Bullets & Bias: Local TV Under Fire | Ten Minutes of Truth EP 39
Épisode 39
mercredi 24 septembre 2025 • Durée 10:29
This episode of 10 Minutes of Truth with Barrett & Baxa dives into the alarming rise in violence against local TV affiliates. We cover two major incidents: a failed bombing attempt targeting a Fox affiliate in Salt Lake City and a shooting into ABC10’s Sacramento studios.
We break down how mainstream outlets—like NBC’s Today Show—chose to sanitize key details, leaving out context about suspects’ identities, potential motives, and connections to larger narratives. We also discuss how media bias shapes coverage of crime, why some stories get scrubbed, and how the preemption of Jimmy Kimmel Live may have sparked dangerous misdirected anger toward ABC affiliates. Finally, we end with Rob Reiner’s doomsday CNN rant about “state-run media” and what it says about Hollywood’s political bubble.

Boycotts, Backlash & Broadcast Lies: The Jimmy Kimmel Fallout | Ten Minutes of Truth Ep 38
Épisode 38
lundi 22 septembre 2025 • Durée 18:18
🚨 As Jimmy Kimmel returns to the airwaves, we break down the two-sided controversy surrounding his roller-coaster ride.
Jimmy Kimmel just learned the hard way what “consequence culture” really means.
From misleading syntax about Charlie Kirk’s killer to years of plummeting ratings, did ABC finally have enough? But is this about free speech, corporate pressure, or government interference?
Barrett & Baxa break it all down in 20 Minutes of Truth.
We cover the hypocrisy, the Roseanne comparison, Kimmel’s sinking ratings, and even a wild conspiracy theory about why he might want to be “canceled.”
👉 Like, share, and tell us—was this cancellation or just consequences?

Left, Right, and Wrong: Media Blunders Cross the Line | 10 Minutes of Truth EP 37
Épisode 37
dimanche 21 septembre 2025 • Durée 12:58
Two major on-air blunders shook the news world this week.
ABC’s Matt Gutman embarrassed himself with a bizarre take on the Charlie Kirk case, while Fox News host Brian Kilmeade sparked outrage with an off-the-cuff remark about homeless people. Both were forced into damage-control apologies — but are these just “slip-ups” or proof of the slow, strange death of traditional media?
In this episode of 10 Minutes of Truth with Barrett & Baxa, we expose:
How Gutman’s “gushing” over text messages backfired.
Why Kilmeade’s “lethal injection” comment went viral.
The media spin, the apologies, and the fallout.
What it all means for trust in mainstream media.
