| The Houthis Strike Back, North Korea Suckers Trump, and JD Makes His Bid | 17 sept. 2026 | 00:59:59 | |
This week Seena and Travis tackle the recent Houthi attacks on a major oil pipeline in Saudi Arabia. They talk through what exactly happened, explain why you need to know about the “Gate of Tears,” and forecast what this will mean for oil prices in the US. Did they predict this would happen? Yep. Do they gloat about it? They sure do, but delicately, of course. 🙃 They also dive into North Korea’s latest weapons test and why it signifies a middle finger to Trump, the latest in humanoid robots (they’re boxing?!), and struggle through some of JD’s big GOP convention stump speech. Doing the dirty work so you don’t have to. You’re welcome!

It’s been 25 years since 9/11, so this week Seena and Travis examine how the decisions made then reverberate today. They also cover the tragedy in Nepal and a new report that claims Netanyahu was warned about 10/7. Plus, a beefy JD Vance corner. T-Cep and FP Zaddy are back and well-rested, so buckle up!

| Is the Supreme Court Openly Hostile to Democracy? Prof. Corey Brettschneider Thinks So. | 27 août 2026 | 01:06:19 | |
This week, law and political science professor Corey Brettschneider joins the show to talk through some of the pivotal decisions from this year's Supreme Court docket. Will birthright citizenship withstand this administration? Is the SC not so quietly advocating for an all-powerful executive? Is Howard Nutlick set to walk away with millions in tariff vouchers? Can we sue any of these assholes? Listen to find out!

| Hesam Torr on Trump's Plan to "Out-Suffer" the Iranians | 20 août 2026 | 00:59:33 | |
Iranian comedian and physician Hesam Torr joins Seena and Travis this week to discuss the latest updates on the war with Iran. They cover the on-again, off-again ceasefire, plus Trump's poorly thought-out strategy to pit America's capacity for hardship against the Iranian's. They also talk through Trump calling the North Koreans "respectful" and giving the green light to companies who want to cyberattack foreigners. Yes, that sentence is real.

| Holy War Problems + JD Plays the Hits | 13 août 2026 | 00:58:14 | |
The FP Zaddy is back! This week he and Travis discuss the role of the IRGC in this seemingly never-ending war and how, surprise surprise, the Trump administration has gotten trapped in the quicksand of a holy war they did not see coming. They talk through Trump's latest ploy in his quest to end birthright citizenship and the ongoing tragedy of the demise of TPS. Also, after a quiet week, JD is back in all his monstrous glory.

| Trae Crowder: War Whiplash and the End of TPS | 06 août 2026 | 00:56:12 | |
Trae Crowder joins Travis this week to again ask WTF Trump is doing in Iran. What is the status of the negotiations? Why the constant whipsaw?

| Lindsey Graham Is Dead And So Is The Ceasefire | 16 juil. 2026 | 00:54:17 | |
This week, Seena and Travis recap the last 10 days of the US’s ongoing war with Iran– we can’t even in jest say conflict anymore. They cover the escalation and ponder the likelihood of WWIII. They also sift through the legacy of Lindsey Graham, talk through takeaways from the NATO summit in Ankara, and watch JD dunk on himself.

| NATO is in Ankara, Trump's on the Phone with Putin, and JD Wants to be Nixon | 09 juil. 2026 | 00:53:58 | |
Ukraine has destroyed Russia's last major oil refinery, is bleeding Moscow dry at 30,000 soldiers a month, and has drone capability reaching Siberia — and it might not matter, because Trump spent 85 minutes on the phone with Putin instead of coordinating with NATO. This week Seena and Travis break down what's actually happening on the ground in Ukraine versus what's getting decided in backchannels, plus: the Supreme Court's summer of consequential rulings, what Nigel Farage's resignation and Marine Le Pen's ankle monitor tell us about the state of the European right. And, JD Vance compared himself to Nixon — out loud, on tape, apparently without shame. How fun!

| Iran Wins Again, Israel Ramps Up the Pressure, and Trump Takes on the G7 | 25 juin 2026 | 00:54:01 | |
This week Seena and Travis dig into the MOU, a seemingly last ditch escape hatch for the US coupled with a windfall for Iran. They discuss the particulars of what exactly Iran stands to gain and how Israel is doing its best to literally blow it up by continuing to flatten parts of Lebanon. They also check in on the latest in UK politics, how Trump made a jackass of himself at the G7, and the status of China’s race to a semi-conductor. Also, JD has a new book to shill so that’s good for a few laughs.

| TFR at the World Cup!! | 18 juin 2026 | 01:00:02 | |
This week Seena and Travis brave LA traffic to see the Iranian World Cup team take on New Zealand. They talk through who they should cheer for and why that question is so fraught, explain the history of the Iranian’s team and its relationship with the IRGC, and check in on what is happening in the countries of some former WC champions. After the game, they reflect on their experience (it was a journey, folks) and cast forward to guess how exactly JD is going to f*ck up the signing of the Memorandum of Understanding.

| Venezuela to China: How One Regime Change Could Tank Your Retirement Account | 11 juin 2026 | 00:51:46 | |
This week Seena and Travis check-in on the Trump administration’s most recent foray into regional hegemony– the kidnapping of Nicolas Maduro. They dig into the reasoning behind it (faulty at best), the plan to rebuild Venezuela (pie in the sky forecasting), and where it might lead us in terms of our relationship with China (basically like planting mines under an already rocky road). They also discuss the on-again / off-again ceasefire between Israel, the US, and Iran, Congress rebuking Trump with more aid to Ukraine, and Germany losing its seat on the UN Security Council. JD also gave a speech to graduating cadets in Colorado Springs that was the definition of mealy mouthed, so basically no surprises there.

| War in Iran: We Told You This Would Happen + Trump Flip Flops & Vietnam Gets Tough | 04 juin 2026 | 01:03:17 | |
This week we couldn’t help ourselves, we had to do it. This war is such a shitshow a collective “we told you so” just needed to be said. From the reaction of the proxies to the swiftness with which Iran took control of the Strait of Hormuz to the continued and ever deepening suffering of the Iranian people, all of this was foreseeable. We looked into Trump’s recent change of heart on troops in Poland and the danger of China procuring our AI tech. Who woulda thought that could be a bad idea? We also checked in on why Vietnam is beefing up its maritime footprint and why JD gave Dems fighting fraud the cold shoulder. Apparently simply being inept wasn’t cutting it anymore.

| Trump’s Failed ‘Back to the Future’ Ahmadinejad Plan | 28 mai 2026 | 00:41:14 | |
This week Seena and Travis talk through Trump and Netanyahu’s insane plot to return Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, Iran’s loathsome former president, to power. The plot (thank all that is good) ultimately failed, but why it happened in the first place and how exactly it failed is a testament to how disconnected from reality the two men who started this war are.

| Trump’s “Fact” Sheet on the Xi Summit, JD v. Marco, and Labour on the Brink | 21 mai 2026 | 00:53:19 | |
This week, Travis and Seena eviscerate Trump’s claims about his “highly successful’ trip to China, going line-by-line through the White House’s “fact sheet” to get to the bottom of what, if anything, was actually accomplished. They also check in on Ukraine and Russia, pour some out for the UK’s Labour party, and look forward to the upcoming cage match between Marco Rubio and JD Vance. Get ready to rumble, folks!

| Trae Crowder Talks Iran, the Dems, and the Role of the Comedian Under Trump | 14 mai 2026 | 00:54:59 | |
Trae Crowder joins Seena and Travis in the studio for a lively discussion. They parse through the ever-changing objectives of the war, debate who scares them more: Hegseth or Patel, question the role of the comedian in politics, and offer some advice to the floundering Dems. And, of course, they top it all off with a little JD Vance corner.

They also dive into how Cuban Americans are responding to Trump’s latest overtures to Cuba (not well) and whether or not Trump’s Golden Dome can stop the rise of North Korea’s missile program.

This week Seena and Travis dig into the “other” war Israel is waging in Lebanon. They question Netanyahu’s tactics and wonder where they will lead: another failed state, a “new” Hezbollah? Whatever the case, over a million Lebanese have already been displaced, thousands have been killed, and the ceasefire clock is ticking. In more ridiculous news, Trump took a swing at the Pope– who proved to be lighter on his feet than anticipated, things are looking even bleaker for Kash Patel at the FBI, and JD gets heckled.

Seena works out some white board magic to show exactly how much Iran has gained since Trump and Bibi began their war– an unquestionable success, yes, but for the wrong side. They also look into wtf JD is doing in Hungary, celebrate Artemis II, and rejoice that Trump and JD have finally solved our childcare crisis.

P-Funk member, historian, and author Danny Bedrosian joins the show this week to contextualize the story of the Armenian Genocide– what led to it, how it was rationalized at the time, and why no one talks about it today. We discuss how it resonates with recent events and debate what people and countries can and should do to help preempt genocide in the future. We also talk about why politicians (like chickenshit JD) are so scared to name it.

| US/Israel War with Iran: Neverending Objectives and No Clear End in Sight | 12 mars 2026 | 00:57:57 | |
The U.S. is bombing Iran with shifting goals, a new hardline supreme leader, acid rain over Tehran, and a War Powers vote that just failed in Congress, and nobody in charge seems to know what winning actually looks like. Seena and Travis break down the moving target of war objectives, profile Iran's new supreme leader Mojtaba Khamenei, and trace the growing fractures inside MAGA over a war Trump swore he'd never start. This is the episode that connects the dots between a rudderless military campaign and the domestic political fallout nobody's fully reckoning with yet.

| War In Iran: Why Now & What’s Next | 05 mars 2026 | 00:59:42 | |
Don’t Say We Didn’t Warn You! We heard the rumblings but now it’s really here. For better or worse– we’re at war with Iran. Join Seena and Travis this week as they go deep into the whys, the hows, and the WTFs. We have plenty of information, lots of feelings, and a surprising amount of good jokes.

| El Mencho Gets Got, Trump Takes An L, & Daddy Kushner Est Un Ducon | 26 févr. 2026 | 00:56:28 | |
Seena’s back! Join us this week as he and Travis dig into Mexican cartels and wtf success looks like in the “war on drugs.” They talk tariffs and what the recent Supreme Court ruling means for consumers (spoiler alert - probably nada), why Charles Kushner is in the news and making an ass of himself, and offer a few suggestions to simplify the fate of Rodrigo Duterte. And, of course, there’s JD Vance Corner. Yay?

| Ed Larson on ICE’s Slippery Slope | 19 févr. 2026 | 00:58:51 | |
This week Ed Larson joins Travis to talk ICE- it’s history, how it’s (de)volved under Trump, and what happens next. They also talk Rubio’s failed attempt to play good cop in Europe, Congress giving Trump a rare hand slap on tariffs, and JD standing by his statement acknowledging the Armenian genocide despite criticism from the right– oh, wait, that didn’t happen.

Marcus Parks is back!! This week he joins Travis to wade deep in the Epstein files, braving all their slimy foulness to deliver some dead-on, signature Parks expletive-strewn rants. They also dissect some video to determine, yes, Trump really did sh*t himself on camera, and find a little satisfaction in the fact that the world still hates JD. All must not be lost then, right?

| Israel’s Ceasefire Screen, Noem Gets A Shellacking, & JD Makes Sh** Up | 05 févr. 2026 | 00:55:34 | |
Jam packed show today! Seena & Travis break in the new studio by talking through what’s been happening in Gaza since the so-called ceasefire. They investigate the gray areas in the multi-step, many layered “peace plan” that has allowed for over 500 Palestinian deaths since it was initiated. They also take a look at Steve Witkoff's very full dance card– meeting with Russians, then Netanyahu, then Russians and Ukrainians, then Iran. Confidence is not high over here at TFR but we did get to celebrate a Federal Judge’s order that calls Kristi Noem a racist. As far as wins go these days, we’ll take it.

| Murder in Minneapolis, Impossible Choices in Iran, and JD’s Still Getting Laid | 29 janv. 2026 | 01:00:33 | |
This week we welcome Travis back to the studio(!!) and talk through the nightmare that is unfolding in Minneapolis. How dumb do they think we are? What should Dems do? Will abolishing ICE do anything? We also dive into the US’s options for intervention in Iran. What are they exactly? What does it mean for Trump to promise help and then watch as thousands are killed. Considering our pitiful track record, should we intervene at all? And just when you thought it couldn’t get worse, we finish things up with an exceptionally infuriating JD Vance corner. Make yourselves comfortable, folks, it’s going to be a rough (but bearable) ride.

| The Kurds Might Have the Answer, Plus Trump Has A New Grift and JD Promotes Bad Habits | 22 janv. 2026 | 00:57:41 | |
This week we welcome Hamoun Dolatshahi to discuss how the Kurdish-Iranian community is responding to rumblings of the Shah’s return and the thwarted revolution in Iran. We dive into Kurdish culture more broadly and Rojava, their transformative practice of borderless governing. We also take some time to ridicule Trump’s “Board of Peace” and tariff threats, along with JD Vance reminding us that sometimes smoking is therapeutic.

| Over 12,000 Killed in Iran as Shah's Son Eyes Return and JD Hand Waves Murder in Minneapolis | 15 janv. 2026 | 00:57:49 | |
This week, Seena breaks down the Pahlavi dynasty in Iran– how it started, what happened during the Iranian revolution, and how Reza Pahlavi fits into the current situation. Is reverting to a monarchy the pathway to a secular democracy or a slide backwards? We don’t know, but one thing is clear: anything is better than the current regime. We also look into Trump’s embarrassing attempt to take down Jerome Powell, Pakistan’s kangaroo court, and Australia’s crackdown on hate speech. We also raise our blood pressure watching JD Vance’s attempts to gaslight the public over the murder of Renee Good.

| Researcher Frank Spring On WTF Happened To the Dems | 02 janv. 2026 | 00:46:02 | |
Happy New Year! This week on TFR we talk with progressive political strategist Frank Spring who tries to convince us that we should be somewhat hopeful about Democratic prospects in 2026. Arguing against the recent “Deciding to Win” report, he explains that, at least some, Democrats can walk and chew gum at the same time. Meaning, they don’t have to abandon core Democratic positions, but they do need to figure out (and quickly) how to talk to real people about the issues that matter the most.

| Dr. Nadine Strossen On Why Free Speech Matters In The Age Of AI | 26 déc. 2025 | 00:53:32 | |
This week on TFR, we talk with the illustrious lawyer and free speech champion, Dr. Nadine Strossen. We dig deep into the first amendment– what it actually guarantees, why it’s so important, what people tend to misunderstand. And then pivot to the many challenges it faces– online culture, hate speech, self-censorship, AI bots, and an unhinged government. We also somehow get to JD! Who’da thought?!

| Mass Shootings + 2026 Predictions: How Much Worse Can It Get?! | 19 déc. 2025 | 00:58:56 | |
This week on TFR we talk through the horrors of the Bondi Beach and Brown University shootings and the murder of the great Rob Reiner. We question who in their right mind would have the stomach (ahem, Mr. President) to try and score political points in the face of such tragedy. We then shift our focus to the year ahead, which is bound to be better, right? Will JD become prez? Will Israel attack Iran? Will the war in Ukraine finally come to an end?

| War Crimes Cover-up, Farmers Need A Bailout & the UN's Pinching Pennies | 12 déc. 2025 | 00:51:29 | |
This week on TFR, we talk about the fallout from the Venezuelan double tap and try to answer the age old question– what’s worse the crime or the cover-up and decide they’re both pretty f***ing bad. We also talk through Trump’s 12 billion dollar bailout of farmers necessitated by Trump’s 40 billion dollar bailout of Argentina. Go figure. We mourn the continued collapse of international humanitarian aid efforts, confirm that Roger Stone is a liar, and hear how Trump’s anti-immigrant rhetoric is impacting Somalis in Travis’s hometown. Spoiler alert, they don’t like it.

This week on TFR, we go back in time to WWII and the Peleus Affair to explain why Hegseth is a war criminal. Once that was cleared up, we rolled our eyes at Netanyahu for his pre-emptive pardon request, threw our hands up at Trump for overtly meddling in the Honduran election and lament the continued school closings in Northern Nigeria. Then we look toward 2028 and the inevitable showdown between Cruz and JD. Who will be declared the least likeable?!

This week on TFR, Seena and Travis clean out the fridge to talk Jeffrey Epstein’s odd relationship with Ehud Barak and the recent revelations of his geopolitical back-channeling.

They marvel at Trump’s embrace of the Saudi Crown Prince and what that may augur for the region, check in on raging corruption in the Philippines, and side-eye Trump’s baseless accusations against Nigeria.

| The Crisis in Sudan, a Blue Wave, Dick Cheney is Dead & JD Lost the Base | 07 nov. 2025 | 01:04:26 | |
**NOTE The causality from the Al Fashir has been updated from when we recorded. As of Friday the numbers from just the last 10 days could in the tens of thousands. There's also word that the RSF has agreed to a ceasefire...JFC** This week as Seena and Travis celebrate much-needed wins for the Dems, send off Dick Cheney, our political Darth Vader, with a too-many-to-be-brief list of his top “accomplishments,” and wrestle with the ick factor of agreeing with Nick Fuentes about JD Vance. They also dig into the current status of the tragedy that is the civil war in Sudan. Hard to make that bearable but they do their best to break it down and provide some context for the ongoing genocide.

They weigh in on Canada’s Reagan commercial and Trump’s unsurprising overreaction, Israel’s blatant disregard for the ceasefire, elections in Argentina, and a devastating hurricane in the Atlantic.

They also dig into Trump's expected u-turn on Russia, but since we recorded he even made another u-turn! We also cover the absurd prospect of Jared Kushner & JD Vance stabilizing the Hamas-Israeli ceasefire, and the new Iron Lady of Japan. They question if JD will be the chosen one or if a new hereditary monarchy is in the works. There is no lesser of two evils anymore….
