Bernstein and investigative journalist Greg Palast discuss the dumpster fire that is Graham Platner's candidacy in the Senate election in Maine.

Plus, the duo host a Call-In Voter Clinic answering your questions about the proposed SAVE Act, the dangers it poses, and how to save YOUR vote from it. 🎧 Listen now—and make sure your vote counts.

  • The Welcome Table: Greg Palast interviews Josh Fox

    The Welcome Table: Greg Palast interviews Josh Fox
    2026/07/13

    In his new film, The Welcome Table, Josh Fox has traded the point-and-shoot of his seminal Gasland for lush cinematography on five continents. But it ain’t some Discovery Channel travelogue. Fox has brilliantly melded the burning issues of immigration and climate change. Even if you just think global warming is a bunch of hot air (pun intended), this documentary will just knock you out.

  • Trump, Sinatra, and My Partner

    Trump, Sinatra, and My Partner
    2026/05/06
    It’s kind of embarrassing. Donald J. Trump was my business and character reference for my investigations firm, Union Associates, when, in the 1980s, I applied for government contracts. But Frank Sinatra put an end to it.

  • Nuclear Power: A Crime Wave Parading as an Industry

    Nuclear Power: A Crime Wave Parading as an Industry
    2026/04/28

    This explosive interview between investigative journalist Greg Palast and KPFK Solartopia host Harvey Wasserman dives deep into the shocking hidden realities of nuclear power.

    Palast has led investigations of multi-billion-dollar frauds in the nuclear power industry, while Wasserman, is an author, activist and expert on all things nuclear. Between them, the pair have insider knowledge on the industry going back decades, with Wasserman serving as a whistleblower in one of Palast’s most incendiary investigations.

    During this not-to-be-missed conversation, the duo share sharp criticism of slapdash safety practices, inside info on industry cover-ups, and the staggering concealed economic costs behind reactor projects. From chaotic construction and flawed backup systems, to the disturbing facts belying the sanitized fiction released to the public in defense of disasters like Fukushima, the conversation challenges mainstream narratives and raises a bigger question: in a world of rapidly advancing renewable energy, is nuclear power not just risky—but fundamentally uncompetitive?

  • Why Trump’s #2 at FEMA, Gregg Phillips, who claims he teleported to a Waffle House, is no joke

    Why Trump’s #2 at FEMA, Gregg Phillips, who claims he teleported to a Waffle House, is no joke
    2026/04/23
    Gregg Phillips’ group, True the Vote, challenged over 300,000 voters in 2024, crucial to Trump’s victory. How can they do that? True the Vote is using old Jim Crow laws that allow any voter to challenge another voter’s ballot. And now, ahead of the next election, Phillips is training literally 40,000 MAGA vote challengers who’ve exchanged white sheets for spreadsheets.

    2026/04/22

    Dear Mr. Colbert, your take-down of Trump’s #2 at FEMA, Gregg Phillips, who claims he was teleported to a Waffle House was so hilarious I spit my milk out through my nose.

    But I’m not laughing anymore. Mr. Colbert, Phillips may choose our next president. Here's how.

  • Trump: The Pirate of Hormuz

    Trump: The Pirate of Hormuz
    2026/04/08
    There is nothing new under the sun. Five centuries ago, the Portuguese conquistadors imposed a toll (“cartaz”) for ships trying to get through the Strait of Hormuz. Yet Trump and Hegseth didn’t know what every ship captain has known for centuries: the importance of securing the Strait. And the wee problem with Trump’s plan to collect passage tolls in partnership with Iran is that it violates international laws against piracy.
