Our Editor's Take

Few people inspire conversation quite like the Oscar-winning director Michael Moore. Rumble with Michael Moore is a current events podcast that only he could deliver. It examines the news stories on listeners' minds and the opinions of a master disruptor. Listeners can gain valuable insights from the host and meet fascinating guests here.

When it comes to broaching meaningful conversations, Moore is a leader. He is an American filmmaker and activist from Flint, Michigan. His documentary Bowling for Columbine won an Oscar in 2002. Along with prestigious awards, his reputation has gained him a healthy following. Many of his fans appreciate his honest views on politics and society. His criticism of the Republican Party and Donald Trump is one example. But the political progressive isn't afraid to call out Democrats as well. On the Rumble with Michael Moore podcast, Moore shares more of the opinions that made him a household name over the years.

The Rumble with Michael Moore podcast promises to deliver eye-opening conversations. Listeners can hear Moore's random thoughts on a cold February night. They can also listen to various episodes discussing Democrats living in red states. An example of one is "You are not alone." They hear his theory of Republican panic as he predicts their party enters its final years. One informative episode is "February Ends." In this episode, Moore discusses the Democratic Party and the Texas abortion ban. Listeners will also hear a text exchange between Congressman Dan Kildee and himself. Moore even discusses non-political topics. He talks about things like watching Patti Smith and Tony Shanahan's performance of a song inspired by Yoko Ono. He also reveals what movies and TV shows he has been watching lately. More guests include impressive people like Chris Hedges, a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist.

These episodes may be fascinating for new and old fans of Moore's work. New episodes of the Rumble with Michael Moore podcast are available weekly.

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

Ep. 327: Trump Is the American Bibi. The World Does Not Need a Double Bibi.
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 vitriol 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. 321: “Elder Abuse” is Refusing to Give the President a Neurological Exam — and Instead PUSHING Him to “Soldier On”

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

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.
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?
