Pardon the Politics
You didn't ask for the most chaotic political era in modern American history. But here you are watching executive orders fly, whistleblowers get silenced, world leaders get bombed mid-negotiation, and a president who apparently thinks Greenland is the size of Africa. Somebody's got to make sense of it.
That's where Pardon the Politics comes in.
Every week, co-hosts Jeezy and Manny, joined by the Chairman of Chaos himself, Chuck, bring you an unfiltered, unscripted breakdown of the biggest stories in U.S. and NC politics with the kind of honesty, humor, and cultural fluency you won't find anywhere on cable news. These are three brothers from North Carolina who cut their lawns, cheer for their kids, argue about the Patriots, and also happen to do their homework. Deeply.
Season 3 has already taken listeners through it all: Trump's bizarre Davos appearance, the Epstein files and the accountability that still hasn't come, the Tulsi Gabbard whistleblower scandal, tariff chaos in the courts, the last MLK Day we may ever see, a world that went to war without a Congressional vote, and the death of a Supreme Leader while diplomats were still at the table. And they're just getting started.
This is not a show for people who want to be told what to think. This is a show for people who want the context, the history, the real questions nobody's asking, and three real perspectives from people who live in the same America you do.
Where chaos meets clarity. New episodes every week.

Pardon the Politics
Paramount Got Jokes, But Is the White House Laughing?
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
This week on Pardon the Politics, Jeezy and Manny celebrate a birthday and break down everything from wild satire to serious scandal. South Park returns with its season 27 premiere, and boy, did they come for Trump. From hopping into bed with Satan to AI-generated propaganda, the creators pulled no punches. But is Paramount ready for the backlash?
Meanwhile, Trump makes a rare stop at the Federal Reserve, only to get fact-checked in real-time by Jerome Powell, and social media has crowned Powell “Jerome the Truth.” We unpack Trump’s thinly veiled attempt to control the Fed and what that means heading into 2027.
Also on the docket: Candace Owens gets hit with a defamation lawsuit by French First Lady Brigitte Macron (yes, really), and Netanyahu faces growing pressure as starvation in Gaza reaches horrifying new levels.
It’s politics, satire, and sports, all wrapped in laughter and truth. Tap in, share, and get ready to think and laugh.
