This is the Unregistered Podcast, and I'm Thaddeus Russell.

This is a show about ideas, people, and behaviors that are considered inappropriate, out of bounds, or beyond the pale.

The things you're not supposed to talk about if you're a schoolteacher, a college professor, a businessman, a politician,

a parent, a neighbor, or even a podcast host. These are the things you're not supposed to say

or even think if you're a good liberal, a good conservative, or a good citizen. Each week,

I'll interview a person who has something bad to say. They might be a

journalist or a professor. They might be a porn star or a drug dealer. They might just be an

ordinary person with an ordinary job who doesn't care about the rules of polite society.

I'm not interested in breaking the rules just to be a troublemaker. I'm

interested in people who break the rules of conventional thought and to expand the scope of what

is possible to say in our society. I'm interested in people who make me think.

During my lifetime, America media outlets have essentially refused to cover the wars of the

United States in the field. They will embed with U.S. troops and cover the wars from the American

military's point of view, but never from an independent journalist's point

of view. That is, until now, I found a young man who has sent himself into the field to cover

the conflicts firsthand. And what he has found in his reporting from places like Israel, Gaza, and Russia often confounds

the official narratives of the United States government.

This is my interview with Jeremy Lofredo.

I am joined from New York by someone I wanted to talk to you for a long time.

Jeremy Lofredo, who, you know, I do say this.

I have said this about some journalists who have been on my show,

who I say, you know, I think they're doing the best journalism at the time.
