Ep. 330: I Mean, How Bad Can It Really Be? Oh. That Bad.

11/11/2024
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.

Ep. 328: “I’M NOT JOE BIDEN” Prove it. Please.

10/21/2024
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 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. ******************** For more of Michael's work, subscribe to his Substack at MichaelMoore.com Write to Mike: mike@michaelmoore.com ******************** Episode Underwriters: 1) Babbel.

Ep. 327: Trump Is the American Bibi. The World Does Not Need a Double Bibi.

10/7/2024
Even One Bibi, Who After the Slaughter of October 7th Then Created the Slaughter of October 8, 2023-October 7, 2024, Is Too Much. The Current Slaughter Is the One You and I Fund and Arm. Who Will Forgive Us? Vice President Harris, Please, Tell Us You'll Fix This. One year ago today, Michael Moore (and the rest of us) awoke to the devastating news that over 1200 civilians — mostly Jews — had been slaughtered in Israel, and lay dead in the streets. On today's episode, Michael not only reflects back on that fateful day, but he also uncovers the uncomfortable truths that surfaced in the days, weeks and months that followed, that led us to where we are today: Our tax dollars funding & arming an off-the-rails Netanyahu and his mass slaughter of innocent Palestinians — and now us Americans on the brink of being dragged by Netanyahu into a war with Iran. Also, only 4 weeks away from November 5th, Michael covers the latest lies and vitrole coming from the American Bibi, Donald J. Trump. Michael reveals the negative effect of our unwavering support of Netanyahu on Michigan voters, and pleads with Vice President Harris to do whatever she can, right now, to end the madness in the Middle East. Or, at the very least, tell the American people, the majority of whom support an immediate ceasefire, that she is going to do right by us and fix this as soon as she holds power. Finally, today is the LAST DAY TO REGISTER TO VOTE in the following states: Arizona Georgia Florida Ohio Texas (no online registration) Arkansas Indiana Kentucky Mississippi (no online registration) Tennessee If you live in any one of the states above — or in Missouri, Oklahoma, Delaware, South Carolina, Oregon or West Virginia whose voter registration deadlines are later this week — check your voter registration online TODAY and make sure you are registered to vote!

Ep. 324: Michael Moore is Feeling Pretty Damn Good

8/26/2024
Michael Moore can't believe how the tables have turned. Two months ago, the result of our upcoming 2024 presidential election seemed a foregone conclusion, and a second Trump presidency seemed inevitable. But now — just 71 days before the November 5th election — Michael dares to feel hopeful that we may just elect not only our first woman president, but our most progressive! Also on today's episode, Michael discusses the one stain on an otherwise spotless Democratic Convention: Their disrespect of Palestinian-Americans by not letting a single one of them speak on the stage. Shame! We, their allies, will not be silent about the slaughter in Gaza. More to come in Mike’s next Substacks and Podcasts!

The first steps in using Michael Moore’s 2024 Election Toolkit are easy: 1. Get your head on straight and put your game face on. Own this one important fact: YOU belong to the Majority!

Take today and write your personal declaration to your friends and family as to why you’re voting for Kamala Harris and the Dems on November 5th. Put a sign in the yard. Sign up to volunteer at your local Democratic Party. There’s much work to be done! 3. Never forget: You are not alone! But if you vote alone, we lose. Join with other groups and like-minded people to make this election a historic movement to save our Democracy! More to come in Mike’s next Substacks and Podcasts!

Ep. 321: “Elder Abuse” is Refusing to Give the President a Neurological Exam — and Instead PUSHING Him to “Soldier On”

7/6/2024
A message from Michael Moore: "It’s definitely a unique strategy: Defeat Trump by letting Biden have a stroke (or worse). Here is the podcast version of my written plea for someone to please step in and get President Biden the medical evaluation and help he so obviously needs. An amazing one out of five of our 45 previous presidents have NOT made it to the end of their term. The Founders anticipated this and created an easy solution. We all voted for her in 2020 just in case of and for exactly this reason. Stop wasting another minute! We need every one of the next 122 days for the millions of us to be out there doing the work we must do to block Trump from returning to the White House. President Biden, thank you for the good you have done. You will be remembered throughout the ages. But not if you let your enablers hound you into doing what your body is begging you not to do. Be the one who not only stopped Trump, but also the brave man who gave us our first woman in the Oval Office. She will complete your mission — and we will stand beside her. THIS is your moment in history. Let the doctors examine you. Then do the right thing."

Ep. 320: Making Sure Louisiana Posts God’s NEW 10 Commandments in Every Classroom

6/24/2024
Last week the state of Louisiana enacted a new law requiring the Ten Commandments be posted in every classroom in every school in the state — from kindergarten to the final year of college. But it looks like Louisiana will be posting the wrong 10 Commandments. God has recently updated his original 10 from the Bible. He/She/They spoke to Michael Moore and asked him to share the New 10 Commandments 7.0 with his podcast audience… For more of Michael's work, please subscribe to his podcast at MichaelMoore.com. ******************** "God Bless America" — Kate Smith ******************** Episode underwriters: 1) Shopify.

It's a Novel Idea: Let The Students Speak On this week’s episodes of Michael Moore’s podcast, Mike and his crew disobey the college presidents and NYC’s Mayor Adam’s orders to “outsiders” to stay off the campuses and to stop trying to “radicalize” our youth (because young people don’t have a mind of their own). Mike’s crew (Angie, Donald, and “Anonymous”) paid a visit to protest encampments made up of students from Columbia, City College, City University (CUNY), NYU, etc. to hear directly from the brilliant student organizers of these historic demonstrations. These are the voices you won’t hear on the mainstream media. Listen here to their eloquence and passion as they take a stand for the Palestinian people.

Your grandparents had a pension. Working people have been put through the grinder. Now it’s time that the wealthy paid for their sins. Also — thank the universe for the protesting college students of America. As Netanyahu and Biden continue the slaughter of the innocents, young Americans are fighting back.

Ep. 311: Down is Up, War Is Peace, Ignorance is Strength — or, There Is No Such Thing as Abdominal Surgery, and Why You’re Afraid Trump Could Win.

3/17/2024
On today’s podcast with Michael Moore, Mike answers the burning questions surrounding the disappearance of the Princess of Wales and then dumps a bucket of ice water on us so we can wake up and finally admit the Central Truths we didn’t want to acknowledge in 2016: A. Trump is smarter than us. If you don’t think so, then stop right now and tell me how YOU could get elected President while sexually assaulting women (then bragging about it); lying about your worth in order to defraud banks and not pay your taxes; and finally ordering state officials to stuff a ballot box with 11,780 nonexistent votes for you. He may be an idiot and a bigot, but he’s also an evil genius (with the emphasis on genius). B. Trump has never been convicted of a crime, and has never spent a single night in jail. How delusional do we have to be to believe that after a 50-year career of Trump committing one perfect crime after another that suddenly now his unbroken streak of evading the law is going to come to an end?! C. The Special Prosecutor will not save us. Fani Willis will not save us. The Trump-appointed Bankers Boxes judge will not save us. The electoral college will definitely not save us. Joe Biden’s campaign staff will not save us. Stormy Daniels will not save us. The only ones who can save us is ourselves. Are you ready?
