The Jimmy Dore Show

In this episode Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger mock Ed Sheeran's recent response to the outcry after he banned Macklemore from his tour over Gaza, focusing on Sheeran's statement on stage that the situation in Gaza is "catastrophic and unjustifiable" while emphasizing that his shows should remain centered on "unity." Jimmy lights into Sheeran, pointing out that his "both sides" remarks ignore the political context of the conflict and questions his decision to perform at venues associated with people or institutions connected to Israel. 
The discussion also covers reactions from pro-Palestinian activists, criticism of Sheeran's subsequent apology for discussing Gaza during the concert, and broader arguments about celebrity influence, wealth, and political speech. The segment concludes by encouraging viewers to look beyond political divisions and scrutinize the relationships between entertainers, wealthy donors, governments, and media institutions.

Jimmy argues that the United States operates under a form of "socialism for the rich," where government policies and financial interventions transfer wealth upward while ordinary workers face stagnant wages, inflation, high housing costs, and economic insecurity. He criticizes bank bailouts, quantitative easing, military spending, corporate subsidies, and the influence of Wall Street, Big Pharma, Big Tech, and other powerful industries, arguing that these policies disproportionately benefit wealthy interests. 
He also discusses Medicare, unions, immigration, homelessness, and policing, maintaining that public anger is deliberately directed toward poorer people, immigrants, or political opponents instead of toward institutions and wealthy interests that he believes drive economic inequality. The central message is that working- and middle-class Americans should avoid turning against one another and instead recognize our shared economic struggle against an oligarchic system.

After Macklemore was dropped from Ed Sheeran's tour for saying "Free Palestine," Sheeran's opening acts and band quit, citing Zionist lobbying and solidarity with Palestinians. Sheeran defended himself by claiming Macklemore's contract was with the promoter, not him, and said he wouldn't abandon fans, crew, or other acts—but Jimmy argues that Sheeran did abandon Macklemore and is complicit in censorship. 
Jimmy contends all art is political, neutrality in injustice favors the oppressor, and Sheeran cannot claim to be apolitical while letting a billionaire silence pro-Palestine speech. The segment also ties the controversy to broader entertainment-industry power, including agent Casey Wasserman's Epstein links and Netanyahu praise, framing it as part of Zionist control and double standards.

Guest host Garland Nixon and Hard Lens Media's Kit Cabello discuss Macklemore being removed from Ed Sheeran's stadium tour after shouting "Free Palestine" at a recent MetLife Stadium show. Macklemore posted on Instagram that Robert Kraft threatened to block Sheeran's show from Gillette Stadium and rallied other venue owners, forcing Sheeran to choose between keeping Macklemore and retaining access to their venues. 
At the same time the Israeli American Council petitioned to have Macklemore dropped, while Pink and Boy George also criticized him, all of which the hosts frame as billionaire and Israel-linked censorship of artistic free speech. They argue that if venue owners can silence Macklemore for pro-Palestine speech, they can do the same to any artist who steps out of line, making it a free-speech issue for everyone.

In the segment, guest host Garland Nixon is joined by antiwar.com's Kyle Anzalone to discuss Iran's devastating attacks on the U.S. Fifth Fleet base in Bahrain, which is so badly damaged that U.S. personnel cannot even return to retrieve personal effects, exposing Trump's claims that Iran is defeated as lies. The two highlight how Bahrain's majority Shia population cheered Iranian missile strikes because the U.S. base enforces the Sunni monarchy's oppression, and that Iran's attacks also caused supply problems for the USS Abraham Lincoln. 
Anzalone argues the war strategy was disastrous and wasteful, as billions spent on vulnerable bases could have improved America, and the conflict is destabilizing the U.S. economically and politically. They predict Republicans will be wiped out in midterms but warn Democrats will not change foreign policy, as both parties serve the same interests, as evinced by Hakeem Jeffries's recent meeting with Jared Kushner and many Democrats pushing for MORE aggression against Iran.
Plus segments on Hillary Clinton accusing Benjamin Netanyahu of having foreknowledge of the October 7th attacks, George W. Bush continuing to push lies about 9/11 and Trump letting it slip that the best way to avoid being attacked by the United States is to develop nuclear weapons.
