John's monologue this time is about the competition groups for the FIFA world cup having a ceremony that involved bestowing a brand-new Peace Prize to Donald Trump. Then, he welcomes back Rev. Dr. Jacqui Lewis who is the Senior Minister for Public Theology and Transformation at Middle Church in New York City’s East Village. She is a womanist whose preaching, teaching, speaking, writing, and activism are aimed at racial equality, gun control, economic justice, and equal rights for all sexual orientations and genders. And then, TV's Frank Conniff jokes with John and listeners about the latest news and Trump's twisted trickery.

Democratic strategist Max Burns guest hosts. He talks about current news: the Supreme Court voted 6-3 to allow the Texas to move ahead with a highly gerrymandered district map for the upcoming midterm elections. The DOJ tried once again to indict NY AG Letitia James for mortgage fraud but the sitting Grand Jury said NOPE. Top DoD officials presented footage of a September attack on fishing vessels off the coast of Venezuela to members of the Senate Armed Services Committee, including the now-infamous second strike “double-tap” kill of what the white house says are narco-terrorists. And, the FBI arrested Brian Cole Jr of Virginia for allegedly planting the pipe bombs. Max then talks politics with Rick Smith who has been a voice for the working class and the labor movement for over 20 years, and his eponymous radio show has become a space where working folks can get their news, share their thoughts and build community and solidarity. And finally, he interviews Andrew Lownie who is a British historian and author. He has written books about the royal family, on the Duke of Windsor and his links with the Nazis, and on Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, including his involvement with Jeffrey Epstein.
