For the latest @onthemedia.bsky.social I spoke with @jakelahut.writes.news about the Ellisons, who are gobbling up media and tech power at an astounding clip. They’re also likely to play a much larger role in shaping post-war Gaza than most people realize. Listen:

Another excellent OTM episode: from the threat to free speech to the front line protecting it w/ Ryan Broderick in-between. A Garage Day sandwich! Also: if you value this, subscribe for $12/mth. There's $15k on the line from a retired geography teacher (thanks George!) That's less than Disney+ 😜

Political scientist Corey Robin had resisted applying the word "fascism" to Trump and the MAGA movement. On our show this week he discussed why he changed his mind: “They have set off multiple conflagrations. And I have been shaken out of my skepticism.”

A friend asked me about the potential risk of losing public broadcasting funding. If you're interested, I recommend this comprehensive report from "On The Media," which explains what's always saved CPB funding in the past, and why it might not now.
