Free speech, culture, censorship, Big Tech, and the conversations shaping the future are all colliding in real time, and most people are only seeing a small piece of the picture. The Jeff Dornik Show brings together voices from across politics, business, health, faith, and culture to have real conversations that cut through narratives and get to the truth. Hosted by Jeff Dornik, founder and CEO of Pickax, this show is built on one premise: the most important ideas are often the ones that are ignored, suppressed, or misunderstood. Through in-depth interviews and direct discussions, Jeff explores the forces influencing our world, from political agendas and cultural shifts to personal health, entrepreneurship, and the battle over free expression in the digital age. This is not a scripted or controlled environment. Guests are free to speak, ideas are challenged openly, and conversations go where they need to go. Whether it is politics, business, faith, health, or culture, the goal is simple: honest dialogue without filters. If you are looking for real conversations, diverse perspectives, and a deeper understanding of what is actually happening beneath the surface, this show is for you.

    AI Is Making Us Dumber, and That’s the Sales Pitch | Jeff Dornik Interview on The Jayne Carrol Radio Show

    I joined Jayne Carroll on The Jayne Carroll Radio Show for a wide-ranging conversation about what artificial intelligence is doing to our kids, our ability to think, our families and ultimately our humanity. We talked about homeschooling, the collapse of critical thinking, parents surrendering more of their responsibility to institutions and technology, the race with China, and Silicon Valley’s vision of a future where AI and robots do the work while human beings live on universal basic income. AI can be an incredibly useful tool, but when the goal becomes replacing human thought, work, struggle and responsibility, we are building a society that may have access to all the world’s knowledge while forgetting how to think for ourselves.

    MAGA Family Feud: Who Gets Custody of America First? | David Pollack | The Jeff Dornik Show

    OANN’s David Pollack joins The Jeff Dornik Show to break down the growing fracture inside MAGA, where some former Trump supporters say Trump 2.0 has abandoned key promises of the America First agenda, while Trump loyalists continue defending the direction of his administration. We dig into what is actually driving the divide, which issues have become the breaking point, whether the GOP can hold its coalition together heading into the 2026 midterms, and what this internal battle could mean as Republicans begin looking toward the 2028 presidential election. SPONSOR Supermassive Black Coffee is 100% organic gourmet coffee, fire-roasted in a Victorian-era roaster to unlock bold, rich flavor with dark chocolate undertones and a smooth, smoky finish, which is a refreshingly civilized alternative to drinking whatever bean-water the regime-approved coffee cartel keeps pretending is “premium.” Use code JEFF for 20% off and awaken the rebel within, because some mornings require more than caffeine, they require a small act of defiance before checking your inbox and discovering civilization has once again chosen nonsense. https://supermassiveblackcoffee.com/?ref=JEFF Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-jeff-dornik-show--4788100/support.

    We Built Pickax for Humans. Apparently That’s Radical. | Jeff Dornik Interview on Third Railify

    I joined Shaun and Gina on Third Railify alongside Pickax Director of Creator Success Trevor Shipman for nearly four hours of social media, AI, censorship, creator monetization and absolute chaos. We get into why I built Pickax, why algorithm-driven platforms are designed to keep people angry and addicted, how creators are increasingly becoming training data for the AI systems that could eventually replace them, and what Trevor is building to put creators and actual human connection back at the center of social media. Somehow we also found time for jarred farts, Bigfoot bait, questionable peanut butter branding and several conversations no respectable tech CEO should probably ever have on camera.

    Did the Right Trade Liberty for Power? | Stephanie Slade | The Jeff Dornik Show

    Reason magazine Senior Editor Stephanie Slade joins me to discuss her new book, Fusionism: Liberty, Virtue and the Future of the American Right, and one of the biggest philosophical fights happening inside American conservatism. Slade makes the case for fusionism, the marriage of individual liberty, limited government and free markets with the Judeo-Christian tradition of moral virtue, while examining the rise of postliberalism and a more power-oriented right associated with figures including Donald Trump and JD Vance. We get into whether conservatives can use government power to impose good outcomes without eventually handing those same weapons to their political opponents, what happened to the old coalition of libertarians, social conservatives and fiscal conservatives, and whether liberty and virtue still have a future together on the American Right.

    Are AI Data Center Fears Just Chinese Propaganda? | Jovan Hutton Pulitzer | The Jeff Dornik Show

    Jovan Hutton Pulitzer returns to The Jeff Dornik Show for what should be a fascinating disagreement over AI data centers. Jovan believes much of the opposition to these massive projects is being fueled by Chinese propaganda designed to slow America down while China races ahead in artificial intelligence. I’m not convinced. China absolutely has every incentive to manipulate the debate, but that doesn’t mean Americans suddenly stop having legitimate concerns about electricity, water, natural resources and what these enormous facilities mean for their local communities. And there’s an even bigger question nobody seems eager to ask: even if America wins the AI race, is the AI-driven future we’re racing toward actually a world we want to live in? Jovan and I are both conservatives, but we come at this issue from very different directions. This should get interesting.

    Social Media Without Algorithms, Bots or BS | Jeff Dornik Interview on Mike Mac's X Space

    What happens when a tech CEO decides the goal of social media shouldn’t be keeping you addicted? I joined this X Spaces to talk about why I built Pickax around an idea that sounds almost revolutionary in 2026: human beings should actually be able to connect with other human beings without an algorithm deciding what they’re allowed to see. We get into bot farms, AI-generated slop, censorship, creator monetization, digital addiction, why Big Tech keeps putting itself between creators and their audiences, and why I apparently committed Silicon Valley heresy by deliberately building a platform that doesn’t want to hijack your dopamine receptors. Social media used to be social. Crazy concept, I know. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-jeff-dornik-show--4788100/support.

    GOP 2026: So... What Are We Doing? | Vish Burra | The Jeff Dornik Show

    Vish Burra joins The Jeff Dornik Show LIVE exclusively on Rumble as we dig into a pretty basic question that somehow feels increasingly complicated: What exactly does the Republican Party stand for? With the GOP’s first-ever midterm convention wrapping up in Dallas, we’ll talk about what Republicans are actually asking voters to support in 2026, what happens to the party when Trump leaves office after 2028, and whether there is a coherent vision beyond one political personality. Plus, on the 25th anniversary of September 11, we look back at the attack that briefly united America, the promise that we would “never forget,” and how dramatically the country has changed since then. SPONSOR: Think the mainstream media is manipulating you? Following the Leader pulls back the curtain on the shocking truth behind how global elites use propaganda and mass control to push their agenda—and it's far worse than you imagine.

    AI’s Endgame: Terminator, WALL-E or Worse? | Jeff Dornik Interview on The Bill Meyer Show

    I joined Bill Meyer on The Bill Meyer Show for a wide-ranging conversation about where the AI race is actually taking us, including massive data centers, quantum computing, the threat to encryption and privacy, bot farms manipulating online narratives, and Elon Musk’s vision of a future where AI and humanoid robots could replace much of the human workforce. We also dug into the growing fight over whether legitimate concerns about AI infrastructure are being dismissed as Chinese propaganda, why I believe the real prize in this technological race is power rather than money, and why “winning” could leave us choosing between Terminator and WALL-E while the safest cybersecurity strategy ends up being a notebook and a pen.
