    On this week’s edition of “Happy Hour,” Emily Jashinsky responds to the strong reaction to her recent Hasan Piker segment and explains why she’s willing to push back against “definition inflation,” even when that means disagreeing with people on her own side. She reflects on how Charlie Kirk’s approach to argument and persuasion changed over the years and considers how short-form media makes nuance increasingly difficult. Emily also shares some behind-the-scenes thoughts on her interview with Kathie Lee Gifford and dives into the relationship between materialism and identity politics. She explains why she believes Tucker Carlson is deliberately trying to cut out the noise and influence of traditional media, even when that results in some wacky conversations.

She also shares her memories of 9/11 as a young girl in Wisconsin and reflects on the profound generational divide between those who remember the fear of that day and younger Americans who know it only through screens.

    Emily Jashinsky is joined by legendary singer, songwriter, and four-time Emmy Award-winning television host Kathie Lee Gifford to discuss her new song connected to the re-release of “Reagan.” Kathie reflects on meeting Ronald and Nancy Reagan and recalls the remarkable love and attentiveness she witnessed between them, explaining why she views the film as a love story rather than a political one. She also takes aim at today’s “culture of entitlement” and shares stories about her lifelong independent streak, including getting kicked out of Brownies and Sunday school. Emily and Kathie then remember Dolly Parton, with Kathie reflecting on their more than four decades of friendship, responding to the vandalism of Dolly’s Hollywood Walk of Fame star, and explaining the central role faith played in Dolly’s life. Kathie also reveals the remarkable advice Billy Graham gave her about getting involved in politics. Emily then reacts to the Associated Press Sports Editors creating a new award for “excellence in transgender sports coverage” and argues that the organization is presenting a highly contested ideological position as neutral journalism.

    "Happy Hour": The Great Reset and Open Borders, Dolly Parton’s “Victor” Mentality, and the Problem with Algorithmic Social Media: Emily Answers YOUR Questions

    On this week’s edition of “Happy Hour,” Emily Jashinsky reflects on Dolly Parton’s approach to empowerment and why her refusal to see herself as a victim offers a lesson for modern culture. That leads into a discussion about pessimism in America, the danger of becoming consumed by it, and how recognizing problems can be productive when it motivates people to act. Emily continues the debate over her support for a flat tax, including questions about write-offs and whether everyone should have the same “skin in the game.” She also explores the Great Reset, open borders, and global elites while explaining why she remains deeply skeptical of corporate welfare. Emily discusses assimilation, the importance of a shared culture, and her concerns about American companies becoming dependent on foreign labor. She responds to a listener’s challenge about independent media by detailing her own background in journalism, breaking news, and training younger reporters. Emily also explains why she tries to understand people with wildly different political positions. She discusses the desensitizing effects of violence, particularly when graphic images are constantly delivered through social media, and argues that future generations would be better off growing up without algorithmic social media. Emily also gets personal about what she enjoys doing in her free time, some of her favorite television shows, and whether listeners should send her gifts (don’t). She rounds out the show with conversations about abortion, Islam, what the future of Christianity could look like in an increasingly secular Western society, and more… Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

    SICK Murder Reaction, Kmele SCHOOLS Jemele, Mamdani’s Influencer Scheme, & Tyler Robinson’s Defense

    Emily Jashinsky reacts to the murder of 32-year-old Bank of America vice president and new mother Erin Piacenti, who police say was randomly stabbed in Times Square shortly after returning from maternity leave. Emily examines the disturbing online reaction from people celebrating or mocking Piacenti’s death simply because she worked for Bank of America and what it reveals about Americans becoming increasingly numb to violence. She then reacts to a heated CNN debate between Kmele Foster and Jemele Hill over claims that capitalism is bound up with white supremacy and explains why injecting identity politics into the conversation makes it harder to seriously confront capitalism’s flaws. Emily also breaks down new reporting about New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s network of social media influencers, including taxpayer-funded contracts for some messaging campaigns, and raises questions about transparency when influencers are paid to promote government messaging. The show then turns to the preliminary hearing for accused Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson, where his defense attorney repeatedly characterized Kirk as having spoken “hatefully” about certain groups. Finally, Emily takes a closer look at the women rallying around Lindsay Clancy and argues that many appear to be projecting their own experiences with postpartum depression and failures of the medical system onto Clancy’s case while losing sight of the three children who were killed. Emily rounds out the show by answering viewer questions from the live chat.   Ghostbed: Discover how GhostBed’s cooling, pressure-relieving design can help you sleep more comfortably and wake up feeling refreshed, plus get an extra 10% off their lowest prices of the season at GhostBed.com/EMILY with code EMILY.   Cozy Earth: Visit https://www.CozyEarth.com & Use code EMILY for up to 20% off   PreBorn: Help save a baby go to https://PreBorn.com/Emily or dial #250 keyword BABY Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

    Trump’s Voter DISCONNECT, Lindsay Clancy’s Sick Fandom, & Jane Fonda Tries to Rewrite Dolly, with Sean Davis

    Emily Jashinsky is joined by Sean Davis, CEO and Co-Founder of “The Federalist,” to discuss the growing affordability crisis as renewed fighting with Iran drives up oil prices, mortgage rates climb, and Americans continue to struggle with inflation. Emily and Sean react to President Trump’s criticism of communities resisting AI data centers and examine whether the administration is doing enough to address affordability ahead of the midterms, and why the President has become disconnected from some of his core supporters. They also discuss Y Combinator partner Ankit Gupta’s controversial comments about “flyover country,” the growing fight over H-1B visas, and what the backlash reveals about Silicon Valley’s attitude toward ordinary Americans. The conversation then turns to the Lindsay Clancy murder trial, where Emily and Sean examine the women rallying behind Clancy, the role of postpartum psychosis in her defense, and what the intense online identification with her reveals about true-crime culture. Emily and Sean also push back on Jane Fonda and others attempting to recast Dolly Parton as a feminist despite Parton’s own rejection of the label. Finally, Emily reacts to John Galliano withdrawing from a planned exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum of Art and asks whether a post-cancel culture that claims to value accountability actually has room for forgiveness and genuine atonement, and more...   Cozy Earth: Visit https://www.CozyEarth.com & Use code EMILY for up to 20% off   Cowboy Colostrum: Get 25% Off Cowboy Colostrum with code AFTERPARTY at https://www.cowboycolostrum.com/afterparty   ZBiotics: Go to https://zbiotics.com/AFTERPARTY and use AFTERPARTY at checkout for 15% off any first time orders of ZBiotics probiotics.

    "Happy Hour": How the Deep State Uses the Media, the “Black-Pilled” Right, and a Seattle Storm Employee Shares Her Story: Emily Answers YOUR Questions

    On this week’s edition of “Happy Hour,” Emily Jashinsky reflects on her experience covering Russiagate, how it changed her understanding of the relationship between the media and the “Deep State,” and why she appreciates Michael Shellenberger’s ability to approach the story with a fresh, big-picture perspective. She also raises concerns about the federal government’s use of informants and explains why she isn’t convinced the “Deep State” has truly been defanged. Emily dives into the politics of victimhood, why she believes seeing yourself primarily as a victim can rob people of agency, and traces the evolution of “woke” politics from the Obama era to the current Democratic Party. Emily revisits the debate over Gaza, discusses the nuance surrounding the phrase “from the river to the sea,” and reflects on how immersing herself in reporting on the Middle East changed some of her own views. She weighs criticism of JD Vance and his relationship with the post-liberal right, makes her case for the right to life, and shares some candid thoughts about therapy and what she sees as the dangers of an overly therapized culture. Emily also tackles questions about Islam in Western society, explains why she views taxation as a moral issue, raises concerns about federal power over elections, and considers whether parts of the “black-pilled” right are falling into the same unhealthy victim mentality she criticizes on the left. She rounds out the show with some thoughts on pessimism and hears from a longtime Seattle Storm employee who decided to leave the team after the controversy involving teenage girls who voiced support for Sophie Cunningham, and more… Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
