Trump Lets Slip What's Got Under His Skin: Wolff

Season 1 · Episode 75

Wednesday, February 18, 2026 • Duration 53:17

INCOGNI Deal: To get an exclusive 60% off an annual Incogni plan, go to https://incogni.com/beast Michael Wolff joins Joanna Coles to examine why Donald Trump’s very public irritation may reveal more than any document dump. As the Epstein files unleash a rolling wave of headlines, Wolff argues the real story is not what’s newly uncovered but how the sprawling release has diffused attention away from Trump and onto a widening cast of peripheral figures—a dynamic he says Trump has repeatedly relied on to survive past crises. Drawing on Wolff’s firsthand encounters with Jeffrey Epstein and his introduction of Steve Bannon into Epstein’s orbit after Bannon’s White House exit, the conversation traces how resentment, rivalry, and obsession with Trump bound those men together, even as Trump now casts himself as the victim of a conspiracy involving journalists and old adversaries.

This Is Why Trump Revels In Incompetence

Season 1 · Episode 74

Sunday, February 15, 2026 • Duration 58:02

Michael Wolff and Joanna Coles unpack the spiraling fallout from the Epstein files, Ghislaine Maxwell’s calculated silence, and the widening circle of elites caught in the “Epstein class,” before turning to something even more alarming: the Trump administration’s brazen willingness to lie in plain sight. From the El Paso airspace shutdown and the balloon-versus-drone fiasco to Fox News alumni now running Cabinet departments at odds with one another, they examine whether the chaos is incompetence—or a deliberate governing strategy built on fear, loyalty tests, and all-or-nothing stakes. As prosecutions stall, investigations fizzle, and reality itself seems negotiable, Wolff argues that the disorder may be the point—and that the risks are existential. Is this simply dysfunction, or is there a dangerous method behind the madness that we’re only just beginning to see? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Ailing Trump Knows His Reign Is Nearly Over: Wolff

Season 1 · Episode 65

Sunday, January 25, 2026 • Duration 55:26

Michael Wolff joins Joanna Coles as a winter blizzard barrels toward Washington and a political storm gathers inside the White House, where Trump’s second term is no longer defined by dominance but by drift, bad polls, and creeping loss of control. From a Davos appearance that Trump insists was triumphant—but clearly wasn’t—to a rare and dangerous moment of international pushback led by Canada’s Mark Carney and echoed across Europe, Wolff argues the strongman illusion is cracking. The question hanging over it all: Is this just another chaotic chapter—or are we witnessing the first chapter of the end of Trump’s reign? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Comedian Jim Gaffigan reflected on the surreal experience of performing at the Al Smith Dinner, describing Donald Trump’s unorthodox comedic style as “performing on his heels” and surprisingly “killing the entire time.” Gaffigan also joked about parenting his five kids: “Every Monday morning is kind of a surprise for them. Like, ’What? There’s school?’” Then, journalist Mary Ann Akers dissected Kash Patel’s controversial FBI nomination, noting his plan to create a “museum of the deep state” and his intent to use the FBI for political revenge. “He has a long enemies list,” she explained, “and it’s not just Democrats—it’s Republicans too.” The Skinny with Jim Gaffigan is now streaming on Hulu Have a question or comment for us?
