Did Benjamin Netanyahu get an 11-day warning about October 7th — and sit on it?
In this episode, Yaron Brook lays out the two new reports rocking Israel a month before its election, and argues the case for a reckoning goes well beyond one man's political survival.
A month before Israel's election, two bombshell reports allege Prime Minister Netanyahu received direct warnings before October 7th — one from the President of the UAE himself — and failed to act. Yaron Brook breaks down what's credible, what's spin, and why he thinks Netanyahu has to go regardless of how this specific allegation shakes out.
Then: Houthi missiles just hit Saudi Arabia in one of the largest attacks in years — is the Middle East sliding into a wider war? The US and Canada are taxing their own citizens in a trade fight neither side can win. OpenAI's own chief scientist is calling for the industry to slow itself down. And a Virginia mother just got a criminal conviction — and a spot on the state's abuse registry — for letting her five-year-old walk half a mile to a pond.
Yaron Brook brings his signature no-BS, reason-first take on the week's biggest stories — plus live audience questions on Rick and Morty, Ayn Rand's cultural legacy, Mike Mentzer, Milei-style populism, and more.
