The Nicole Sandler ShowAnother Monday with Jonathan Larsen & the F'n NewsLike death and taxes, Mondays are inevitable. And despite our most fervent wishes to the contrary, the news doesn't stop. These days, the news is pretty much always bad.If that’s the case, I prefer to take my news with a healthy dose of snark and some well-placed profanity.So we begin the week here on The Nicole Sandler Show with Jonathan Larsen, the man behind thefuckingnews.substack.com.I'm particularly enjoying watching the MAGAts eating their own over the Epstein files coverup and lies.

The Nicole Sandler ShowAnother F'n News Monday with Jonathan Larsen of The F'n NewsWhen Jonathan Larsen first launched his newsletter and called it "The Fucking News," I thought it was quite clever. Now I know it was perfect and prescient. Jonathan joins me on the show each Monday to help us get a handle on what's happening in the news and set the stage for the week.It reminds of of the limbo dance. It's really a game that asks, "How low can you go?" The aim is to pass forward under a bar, which keeps getting set lower and lower, without falling or dislodging the bar.Unfortunately...2025-07-0759 min

The Nicole Sandler ShowCan the F'n News Get Any More F'd Up?It's difficult to imagine the news getting any worse than the crap we've been dealing with over the last five months. Just when you think we've hit rock bottom, we live through another week of Dump 2.0 and we realize there is no basement.The senate right now is in the middle of the vote-a-rama on its way to passing the Behemoth Barbaric Bill Act which is worse than anything we could have imagined. The orange idiot-in-chief has also taken us down through the depths of Opposite World as his lies continue confusing those who somehow still retain...2025-06-301h 05
The Nicole Sandler ShowTruly F'd Up News on Another F'n News MondayFor some reason it seems like President D'ump likes those Friday night news dumps. So of course, after throwing out his standard delay brain crutch of "2 weeks," the man who can't think for himself launched an attack on three "nuclear sites" inside of Iran, breaking a big campaign promise to keep us out of Middle East wars, inserted us right in the middle of one.Shortly before showtime we learned that Iran retaliated. However, AP reported that “this missile attack on Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar matched the number of bombs dropped by the United States on...2025-06-2359 min
The Nicole Sandler ShowNo Kings, Ego Parade Bust & Lots of F'n News MondayWe begin each week here on the Nicole Sandler Show by catching up on the news with Jonathan Larsen of TheFuckingNews.substack.com and yes, there certainly was a lot of fucking news made over the weekend.When we last spoke on Friday, we were reeling from the treatment of California's Senator Alex Padilla at a press conference at the federal building in Los Angeles held by DHS secretary Kristi Noem. He was forcibly removed, tackled to the floor and handcuffed. It was awful.That didn't prepare us for the horrific news of Israel striking...2025-06-1659 min
