    Inside Democratic Socialists' Battle for Colorado (with KUSA anchor Kyle Clark)

    Today on Nobody Knows Anything, Jesse sits down with Colorado political reporter Kyle Clark to break down the biggest Democratic primaries in the country—and what they could mean for the future of the party. They dive into the blockbuster Denver race between longtime incumbent Diana DeGette and rising progressive Melat Kiros, ask whether anti-establishment momentum is finally catching up to Democratic incumbents, and discuss why Colorado has suddenly become the political battleground everyone should be watching. From there, they unpack the battle for Colorado's 8th Congressional District, John Hickenlooper's surprisingly vulnerable Senate primary, and the high-stakes Democratic governor's race between Michael Bennet and Phil Weiser. Along the way, they debate whether voters are rejecting the Democratic establishment, what makes an effective progressive candidate, and which races could send shockwaves through the party heading into 2028. Then it's over to the Republican side, where Kyle explains why Colorado's GOP primary has become one of the strangest contests in the country—including the rise of Victor Marx, the viral debate moments that landed on Last Week Tonight with John Oliver, and why truth can sometimes be stranger than satire. Finally, they discuss Jared Polis' increasingly uneasy relationship with Colorado Democrats, his national ambitions, and where one of the party's most unconventional governors goes from here.

    What Democrats can learn from Labour in the UK (with Stewart Wood) Plus: Are we all socialists now?

    Today on Nobody Knows Anything, Rob and Jesse break down a wild night in the midterms as a socialist surge sweeps through New York — Zohran Mamdani plays kingmaker, several establishment incumbents go down, and the guys ask whether the "Democratic Tea Party" has officially arrived. They dig into Mamdani's riskiest bet of all, the brutal turn the Gaza debate has taken inside the primaries, and what an emboldened DSA means for a Big Tent party heading into 2028. From there it's on to the great AI super PAC flop, where Leading the Future torched millions only to push the winning candidate further against them — proof you can spend $30 million, get your guy elected, and still somehow lose. A round of Winner or Loser sorts out where AOC, Hakeem Jeffries, and Mamdani actually landed, before Jesse speedruns the downballot races you may have missed and the guys debate whether Democrats should be hugging Joe Biden or running for the hills. Then it's fully international: Labour peer Lord Stewart Wood — former adviser to Gordon Brown and Ed Miliband, and proud Liverpool man — joins from across the pond to explain how Keir Starmer went from a historic landslide to the exit, why Reform and the Greens are eating the middle, and the parallels Americans should be watching closely. Plus the World Cup on home soil, England's familiar heartbreak, and the legend of Ed Miliband's bacon sandwich.  Subscribe to the Nobody Knows Anything Youtube Channel  Follow Nobody Knows Anything on Instagram.  Follow Nobody Knows Anything on Twitter (X??)

    MAILBAG: Can the World Cup save us from ourselves? What is Zohran doing with these endorsements? And when *did* we know Hillary was going to lose?

    Today on Nobody Knows Anything, we're doing something a little different — Rob and Jesse crack open the mailbag and answer YOUR questions. We kick things off with 2028: which prospective candidate is most likely to surprise everyone by not running (Jesse's got a hot take on Whitmer, and we get into the Kamala of it all). Then we dig into the AI super PAC war engulfing the New York 12 race — how "Leading the Future" tried to make an example of Alex Boris and may have only helped him — and what it all means for the even bigger AI money fight coming in the midterms. Rob and Jesse also break down Mamdani's high-risk endorsement gamble, debate whether the World Cup can actually unite the country (Jesse says no, then plays a supercut that says maybe), and investigate the sauerkraut diet mysteriously sweeping the White House cabinet. PLUS: We get into the Michigan Senate mess and Abdul El-Sayed's path — and then, against our better judgment, we relitigate the exact moment we each knew we'd lost in 2016. (You asked. We're in therapy about it.)  Subscribe to the Nobody Knows Anything Youtube Channel  Follow Nobody Knows Anything on Instagram.  Follow Nobody Knows Anything on Twitter (X??)

    Donald Trump's costly Iran surrender, socialists surge in the midterms, and Ossoff-mania grips 2028

    Today on Nobody Knows Anything, Jesse is joined by special guest host Kyle Tharp — writer of the Chaotic ERA newsletter, filling in while Rob jets between US World Cup games. They go deep on Trump's $300 billion Iran "peace deal," a foreign policy blunder that has even Senate Republicans grumbling, though Jesse admits the small part of him that's just relieved to finally be getting the hell out. From there it's on to the home front, where a socialist surge is rolling through the midterms and the Georgia races have gone wild — from Rick Jackson buying himself a gubernatorial nomination to Democrats landing their dream opponent against Jon Ossoff. That leads into the great "are Ossoff's rallies even real?" debate as 2028 heats up, the murky world of secretly paid political influencers, and the nationwide data center backlash — including the Virginia civil war between Louise Lucas and "data center diva" Abigail Spanberger. Kyle also breaks down why Substack has become a big blue liberal bubble, and the guys count down Trump's five worst nicknames of all time.

    Donald Trump's UFC birthday bash, the White House continues to war with Anthropic, and a 2028 check in

    Today on Nobody Knows Anything, we're going deep (deep!) on the White House hosting UFC Freedom 250 — and Jesse acknowledges the small part of him that thinks Trump is doing something right here. Rob and Jesse also talk through the latest "deal or no deal" developments in the war in Iran, the Trump Administration's ongoing battle with Anthropic, and the upcoming primaries ahead of the 2026 midterms. PLUS: We breakdown the latest moves that three key Democrats are making as we all march on towards 2028, and Rob walks us through the 8 different ways you can tweet happy birthday to Dear Leader Donald Trump.  Subscribe to the Nobody Knows Anything Youtube Channel  Follow Nobody Knows Anything on Instagram.  Follow Nobody Knows Anything on Twitter (X??)

    Donald Trump's love affair (with inflation), post-primary Graham Platner, and Wes Moore tells all

    This week on Nobody Knows Anything, Rob and Jesse break down the breaking news on Donald Trump's new Director of National Intelligence, as well as the latest on the war in Iran (spoiler alert: it's not great!) and how Trump loves the inflation it has caused (his words, not ours).  They also discuss the latest in two of this cycle's buzziest Senate races: the implications of Chuck Schumer's endorsement of Haley Stevens in Michigan, and how Graham Platner continues to campaign after his primary victory in Maine. PLUS: Jesse walks through half a dozen other races that you should keep an eye on, and Rob and Jesse debate how Wes Moore has handled the inconsistencies in his personal story.

    Donald Trump’s live TV meltdown, Graham Platner ignores our advice, and Harris and Gavin’s beef revealed

    Donald Trump sits down with Kristen Welker for a Meet the Press interview that goes completely sideways - defending the January 6th rioters as his "dudes," insisting the election was stolen, and ultimately storming off the set. Jesse and Rob unpack whether this is just Trump being Trump or something more, and why a president stuck at 35% is making nervous Republicans suddenly very eager to keep their distance. Plus: The Graham Platner saga refuses to die. Jesse and Rob watch 2028 hopefuls - Ro Khanna, AOC, Chris Murphy, Raphael Warnock - tie themselves in knots over the embattled Maine candidate, while Janet Mills runs the strangest non-campaign in living memory (she won't even tell you to vote for her). Finally: a 2028 whip-around on the not-so-secret frenemy-ship between Gavin Newsom and Kamala Harris, and Nancy Mace's total meltdown after Trump endorses her opponent in the South Carolina governor's race!

    Is Graham Platner cooked? Is Mississippi in play? (with Senate nominee Scott Colom!)

    The New York Times bombshell on Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner that's had DC buzzing all week finally dropped. Jesse and Rob discuss whether the oysterman is cooked, and how Dems should handle the quasi-crisis in this must-win race. Plus: Results from the biggest primary day of 2026 are in – except in California, which will be counting votes for weeks. What did we learn? Among other things, a lot about a Kansas sex-tech investor who might be Iowa's next governor. Finally, Jesse and Rob welcome Mississippi Senate nominee Scott Colom to the pain cave, and come away thinking he could turn the state blue. (Yes, really!)
