It’s Friday, and I’m back with another edition of A World Gone Mad. Some weeks the headlines just drift past…but this week, they hit with the force of a wrecking ball. What you’re about to hear isn’t spin, it’s reality colliding with power in ways that should make every one of us stop and pay attention.
I start with a story that goes beyond politics as usual. It’s about the last place Americans thought they could still find truth…and how that foundation has been ripped apart in a matter of days. People with decades of service and reputations built on science stood their ground, and they paid the price. That alone tells you how deep the rot runs.
Then I take you across the Atlantic, where a strike wasn’t just an attack on Ukraine. It was a carefully staged message aimed straight at Europe’s institutions. The death toll was brutal, but the symbolism was even louder. Europe has been put on notice…and the response is already moving from words to weapons.
These aren’t just “big stories.” They’re turning points. They’re the kind of moments that reveal what happens when truth is sidelined, when loyalty matters more than facts, and when the people in power bet that you won’t notice. My job is to make sure you do notice.
That’s what this podcast is about: stripping away the excuses and saying what too many others won’t. I’m not here to comfort the powerful. I’m here to hold up the mirror and ask if this is really the country we want to live in.
But Fridays are also for breathing room…because nobody can stare at chaos all week without needing a release valve. That’s why I bring you News from the Edge of Sanity: a chance to laugh, shake your head, and wonder how the world manages to outdo satire every single time.
From government shake-ups to the bizarre sideshows of everyday life, I’ll take you through it all. No filters, no sugar-coating, just the sharp edges and the absurd corners that define the week we just lived through.
So plug in, press play, and let’s close this week the way only A World Gone Mad can…with honesty, outrage, and just enough insanity to remind us we’re still standing.
