Academy Award-winning filmmaker and political provocateur Michael Moore offers his subversive and humorous take on the issues of the day and talks to a wide range of people from comedians and politicians to the people who’ve tried to kill him. Plus various mischief with Mike’s friends, family and the neighbors who don’t work for the NSA.
Ep. 330: I Mean, How Bad Can It Really Be? Oh. That Bad.
Surely it’s nothing that a show-tune or two can’t fix!
A message from Michael Moore:
Silence.
Thinking.
Then acting.
In that order.
The internet. The television. The noise is not helping. The answers are already inside us.
Enjoy the music. You did the right thing.
More to come…
— Mike

Ep. 328: “I’M NOT JOE BIDEN” Prove it. Please.
With just two weeks left until the election, Vice President Harris still won’t clearly say what she’ll do differently from Biden to end the U.S. taxpayer-funded slaughter of Gaza’s civilian population. Every poll shows the American people want a ceasefire now. If that’s what the people want, and you want to be their president, why won’t you support what the people want? They don’t want us to be Netanyahu’s bank and arms dealer. Why is that so hard to understand? Why are we risking losing Michigan and the election?
Kamala. Please.
