Summary
Greetings from Ireland, where we thought we’d be taking a week off but the world had other plans!
So the tyrant’s dead and Iran’s long nightmare may be coming to an end! Watch this week’s podcast where we celebrate Iran’s possible liberation with other Iranians and see how the liberal media seem obsessed with portraying a murdering monster as a friendly old uncle and scholar!
And go to our Substack to see how President Trump can be the first American President in decades to actually win a war. And remember Iran is not Iraq.
And, several years ago Phelim was held hostage by violent leftists: who claimed to care about healing the planet. Well now they are paying for their crimes. Watch this week to see how their criminality is bankrupting GreenPeace, a leading leftist organisation. Also learn how these monsters abandoned puppies in the snow!
And we look back on one of our best interviews in the history of the Ann and Phelim Scoop!
Watch this week to catch our interview with Alan and Lisa Robertson, who you may remember from Duck Dynasty. We discuss their amazing book about forgiveness and their recipe for Pecan chicken that’s lovingly called Diabetes on a plate!
And please like and subscribe wherever you get our content. We can’t read your mind but we can read your comments which we love. And we may even show some of them on the air!
OCTOBER 7 the play was a huge success at the Trump Kennedy Center! If you missed out on seeing it don’t lose hope. We want to keep touring the play, but we need your help.

| 0:00.0 | This is actually what was written in the Washington Post in the obituary, with his bushy, white beard, an easy smile. |
| 0:07.0 | Ayatollah Khomeini cut a more avuncular figure in public than his perpetually scowling, but much more revered mentor. |
| 0:15.5 | And he was known to be fond of Persian poetry and classic Western novels, especially Victor Hugo's Les Miserables. |
| 0:24.4 | He certainly created that environment for the people trying to live their lives, |
| 0:28.7 | particularly women trying to live their lives in Iran. |
| 0:35.1 | Hello, my name is Anne McElheny. |

It's like what world are we living in here? I mean, |
| 1:28.5 | we were really shocked to see the national broadcaster of Ireland, which basically didn't acknowledge |
| 1:34.6 | that anyone in Iran was happy. Or at least they minimized it. First of all, it was buried in the |
| 1:39.7 | report. And when they showed footage of people being happy in Iran, there were no real people in the picture. |
| 1:45.5 | It looked like it was a couple of cars. |
