"Guess which Fif’ co-host is accused of 'TDS,' which is called a 'sweet summer child,' and which one blows a gasket about conspiracy theorists!"

Matt, Kmele, Moynihan.

Congrats on the video and enjoy all the commentary MK Ultra is going to generate!

I was waiting for a "if you fight fire with fire you just burn the house down".

I find her to be disingenuous. I don't see how you can watch Tucker and see how he isn't encouraging (at the least) anti semitism. I don't see how you can watch Candace and not see that she has become a bat shit crazy Jew hater. MK simply refused to answer that, just deflecting and avoiding it. For someone who calls herself a truth teller, that is very telling. Not that she is an antisemite, she clearly isn't, but that she is very partisan and won't call out people on her side who should be called out.

The only reason to watch her is to see TFC.

Spot on assessment. I try to listen to all sides’ opinions and perspectives to get a better overall picture but Tucker and Candace are insufferable hacks. There are plenty of people on the right that operate with more honesty.

Basically Megyn is the Chiefs fan who can’t admit Mahomes gets preferential treatment from the refs. Personally I don’t get it. If you can’t call the bullshit out on your own side you’re full of shit yourself. That sounds a bit harsher than I intend so I mean no disrespect to Meygn.

"The only reason to watch her is to see TFC." That's my take also. I might pick up an episode now and then if it's someone I enjoy hearing.

At the very least, that she has different standards for different people.

It appears that Candace Owens' frothing Jew-fixation is explained by her being a young mother under enormous pressure. ??

Just a teeny bit sexist, and I think Megyn would be insulted if someone had set such a low expectation of her when her children were wee ones.

Just got done watching. Excellent job, very professional-looking. I thought Mrs. Kelly carried herself well. I didn't necessarily agree with everything she had to say but isn't that why we're here? I feel like her answer about retribution against the Democrats needs to be unpacked because I have never hated to partially agree with someone so much. Overall good guest and I feel it brought visibility to the podcast.

Side note: the YouTube chat was about as unhinged as I expected. I'm curious how much overlap there is with us here considering the discussions here are mostly better.

This was their 'big' secret guest? The person they do a segment with every couple of weeks?

Hard to believe she is authentically upset with the way the left has responded to Charlie Kirk’s murder if she was willing to completely ignore Moynihan’s point. Candace is using his death in the most vile way.

I have been listening to Meaghan for quite a while and generally find her a smart and entertaining host. She is correct of course that she is entitled to treat her friends as she likes and that she is free to criticize Israel about tactics etc. this show was not a time to question her position that Israel needs to wrap things up. I don’t look to her for military analysis mainly because I haven’t gotten the impression that she is really into that topic or that she has deeply studied the area. In any event she has been a consistent supporter of Israel and is clearly not an antisemite.

But her unwillingness to criticize Tucker and Candace strikes me as a mistake. Both have clearly propagated blatant anti semitic conspiracy theories either directly or through their guests. Owens seems to border on having a psychotic break and needs an intervention. Carlson platforms people who think that now is the time to entertain whether hitler was a better person than Churchill and some other clear antisemites e.g., Ian Carrol and Daryl Cooper. His rant about hummus eating Jews who plotted to kill Christ being just like the murderers of Mr Kirk in that both killed people telling truth to power is a less than subtle attempt to blame the Jews for the assassination of Kirk. And he punctuates it with an unnerving and bizarre cackle.

Platforming people like them, and refusing to criticize them, is very damaging to the causes that Megan strongly supports.

The Republican party is tainted by any association with people like Carlson and Owens, who are each in their own way crudely antisemitic. And more importantly, the failure to fight against hugely popular antisemitics allows this cancer to fester and grow

It seems like an odd hill for Meghan to die on. As a Jew, I don’t need to tolerate people who tolerate antisemites because they are like a brother. He may be a lovely guy to have a beer with but that’s irrelevant. Like Meghan I have made my choice: I no

Longer will listen to her podcast.

Ever the subtle comic. My goodness Welsh kills me. He also got a dig in on Moynihan early in the episode that largely went unnoticed.
