Summary

Michael Kosta covers Trump's loose-lipped revelation of a secret military weapon he calls "the Discombobulator" and how fallout from the latest dump of Epstein emails is affecting prominent global figures, including the Andrew formerly known as Prince being forced into the time-out castle, his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson shutting down her charity, and even Bill Clinton, who is set to testify about Epstein before Congress. Meanwhile, despite Trump's many mentions in the Epstein files, the president continues to remain off the hook. Desi Lydic unpacks Trump’s long-term beef with the NFL over reduced violence, racist name reversals, halftime performers, and the pageantry of the kickoff. After rejecting Trump’s advances to buy the Buffalo Bills, a 2014 conversation with Stephen A. Smith begs the difficult question: Is the NFL responsible for Trump’s presidency? Michael Kosta is joined by director Jon Shenk and former Navy SEAL Marcus Capone, whose experience healing trauma through an experimental psychedelic treatment in Mexico is shared in the Netflix documentary, “In Waves and War”. Capone discusses the treatment process of the ibogaine drug and how it affected him, his nonprofit, VETS, which helps other veterans access the drug, and his advice for young Navy SEALs. Shenk explains what drew him to the story, using animation to illustrate an ibogaine trip, and the movements to bring this treatment stateside. Learn more about your ad choices.
