The John Fugelsang Podcast

John talks about Trump at the World Economic Forum. He either backed off using military force to acquire Greenland or doubled down on those threats and he either made a deal or didn’t. It totally depends on which mainstream legacy news organization you get your sane-washing from. Trump also made a long, confusing speech where he mixed up Greenland and Iceland. Then, he jokes with the amazing Bob Cesca on pop culture and the dumpster fire of hell coming from the White House. Next, it's Desimber Rose and Dillon Naber Cruz AKA The God Squad back once again to bitch slap the fake Christians with theologian wit and wisdom. And then lastly, John speaks with legal analyst Dr. Tracy Pearson and they talk worried listeners off a ledge with sane advice and comedy relief.
