🎙🚨The holidays are here and for long-time listeners, that means one thing and one thing only. The legend! The iconic actor who played George Constanza on Seinfeld--friend of this show—conscience for America—and American icon: Jason Alexander is back for his annual Festivus visit and it’s every bit as epic as you’ve come to expect!

Yes, friends, FESTIVUS is back!

A Festivus for the rest of us.

And this year Jason is bringing a bag full of goodies to help you navigate the turbulent times 2025 is certain to bring. It’s a perfect way to wrap up 2024 and a great listen for you and your whole family as you head over the river and through the woods.

2024 has been a crazy year. And 2025 will be no different. But we’re bringing light not heat and we’re bringing the conversations you want and the news you need. Every guest on this show has shaped America’s past, is impacting America’s present, and is driving America’s future. And Jason continues to help us understand ourselves, our past, and our future.

He is of course best known for his role as George Costanza in maybe the greatest television series of all time, Seinfeld. He was nominated for seven Primetime Emmy Awards and three Golden Globe Awards. He won a Tony Award. And he’s a truly inspiring, fascinating and entertaining man.

And Paul is breaking down drone madness, the “debate” over vaccines, the Army Navy game political post-game review, the defense bill nobody’s paying attention to, and the trials of a parent playing Elf on the Shelf!

Skip the cable news and partisan spin and get your weekly dose of independent vigilance.🎙🚨

🎙🚨Leo Shane understands the intersection of politics, veterans and the military better than almost anybody. He’s covered Capitol Hill, VA, the Pentagon and the White House for 20 years. As Deputy Editor for the Military Times, he’d received countless awards for his commitment to his craft and tireless dedication and outstanding reporting.

He’s an inspiring journalist who has stood alongside veterans for decades as an ally and truth teller. His reporting has led to reforms for how the military deals with journalists and he has shown light in places where light was sorely needed.

From the Hegseth nomination for SecDef, to the massive defense bill being debated by Congress, the new VA Secretary nominee that nobody’s focused on, to rating the current VA Secretary as he nears the end of his 4-year run, he’s here to break it all down with your host, Paul Rieckhoff. And Paul’s reacting to all that and another wild week of national security news. From the arrest of the United Healthcare CEO’s shooter to the acquittal of Daniel Penny in New York it’s been a wild ride and we’re hitting all of it with the no holds barred style you’ve come to expect. It’s a dose of reality the cable news spin machine doesn’t want you to hear and you can only get it here. Including a preview of the Army Navy football game and a salute to an incredible American hero.

🎙🚨December has already been crazy. But it may feel like the calm before the storm once we get to January. With less than 60 days until Trump’s inauguration, the news, chaos and controversy is taking no holiday break. And we’ve got the perfect returning guest to help us make sense of all of it. And anticipate what may come next. Best-selling author Sebastian Junger is a powerful, thoughtful and trusted conscience for America. His books and films explore the heart of our past, present and future. From The Perfect Storm, to War, to Tribe, to Freedom, to Restrepo, to his newest, In My Time of Dying, Sebastian Junger explores what it means to be American and his key takeaways from the election. With our nation divided as a crossroads, his wisdom-filled voice is invaluable to all Americans–and especially to independents.

Sebastian reacts to Trump’s cabinet nominees, rips into why he thinks the Democrats and Harris failed, and takes us behind the scenes of an appearance on The Joe Rogan Experience. It’s a raw, insightful and important conversation you don’t wanna miss.

And our host, Paul Rieckhoff, pulls no punches–per usual. Before the conversation with Sebastian, he independently digs into the latest controversial Trump nominations, shares below-the-radar news from the battlefields of Ukraine and Syria, analyzes the crumbling nomination of Pete Hegseth for Secretary of Defense, and highlights the one Senator that might be key. He also updates us on the squeaker of a final race called this week featuring an Independent Veterans of America-endorsed candidate. And, finally he reflects on this extremely unusual holiday and shares a new favorite family film.

🎙🚨 It has been a very stressful fall in America. For everyone. The election has left us all exhausted and exasperated. Especially independents stuck in the middle of the partisan madness. And whether your guy won, your gal lost, or you’re feeling like we’re all losing our damn minds–we got you. It’s a good time to take a step back from the cable news nonsense, shut off the social media, reflect on the madness, prepare for the madness that’s sure to come, and to be thankful.

So before/as you head into the Thanksgiving break, grab a quick, healthy and soothing helping of independent Thanksgiving perspective with our host, Paul Rieckhoff. He’s been all over the media for the last few weeks helping America (and the world) understand this unprecedenteded moment. And what’s coming next. Including a sneak preview of some big guests coming up next month.

He’ll serve up a big heaping helping of holiday perspective on the Matt Gaetz implosion, the continuing Hegseth controversy, the rise of Joe Rogan and Elon Musk, and all the fights arond the fights. He’ll tell you about an urgent story or two you may have missed, give you some independent perspective on the latest Trump cabinet nominations, and share reasons to be hopeful. Welcome to the independent Thanksgiving family table. Gobble gobble!

21/11/2024

🎙🚨The flood of emotions, political news and outrageous Trump cabinet nominees continues. And so do the potential threats to our country. Trump wants to deploy US troops to remove migrants. A controversial SecDef nominee wants to ban women in combat (while they’re in combat now). RFK Jr could lead HHS. The new VA Secretary nominee is hardly even mentioned. Dr Oz is gonna run Medicare. And Dr Phil might get a job in Washington from Trump soon too! These are wild and weird times. And none of it is normal. And our venerable host, Paul Rieckhoff, is gonna help you independently dig into all of it. And, take you inside what it’s like to go on CNN and wage war with the most partisan hacks. It’s the a behind-the-scenes look at cable news that you won’t soon forget.

And, we’re bringing you a unique and powerful conversation with a highly respectful leader who understands all of it. Barbara Starr is a renowned journalist, Emmy award winning producer, and former CNN Pentagon correspondent. Starr spent 21 years on CNN as Pentagon correspondent reporting from hotspots including Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Yemen, the Horn of Africa and the Chinese-North Korean border. Barbara Starr has become one of the most recognizable faces in conflict reporting. In addition to her work on foreign conflicts, Starr has reported extensively on fallen and wounded troops, as well as the plight of homeless veterans.

Starr worked for CNN from 2001 to 2022, and was a frequent regular on The Situation Room. Prior to CNN she worked for ABC News, where she won an Emmy for her work as a location producer. Starr has also served for several years on the Pentagon Press Association board advocating for greater press access to military operations. And she talks to us exclusively and candidly about all of it.

🎙🚨Union organizer, mechanic, first-time candidate and superstar independent Navy veteran, Dan Osborn () is back and he’s here to let us know what it was like to run the highest profile independent political race since Ross Perot, how he broke through, and what’s next for him and the movement. You met him here first back in May in Episode 280 and then again right before the elections in Episode 303. And although he lost to Republican incumbent Senator Deb Fischer, Dan’s campaign created a template for future races and laid the groundwork to help the movement grow in his home state Nebraska and nationwide. And presents lots of lessons for Republicans and Democrats too.

He’s shocked the political world. But more importantly, he woke people up. Woke people up to the idea that there could be a better way. And we’re always going to take time to listen to and salute anybody that does that.

And, of course unfortunately, there are some of the usual suspects and a few new characters that get the opposite of the salute. As Trump’s administration coalesces there are some familiar and unsavory options coming forward. Most notably, Pete Hegseth has emerged as the likely next SECDEF, a move which has your host Paul Rieckhoff a little concerned and a whole lot of pi**ed off.

🎙🚨The results are in. And America is very different now. If you need a dose of clarity, independent analysis, and inspiration, Paul Rieckhoff’s got you covered in the candid new pod. And, he offers reason for hope in the results of 11 independent vet candidates who ran in races nationwide. Many of these folks, were guests on this show. Now we find out how they fared. And, a reflection ahead of a Veterans Day most Americans forgot is coming on Monday.

Every episode is the truth beyond the headlines–and light to contrast the heat of other politics and news shows. It’s content for the 51% of Americans that proudly call themselves independent. And delivers the Righteous Media 5 Is: independence, integrity, information, inspiration and impact. Independent Americans is your trusted place for independent news, politics, inspiration and hope.

🎙🚨Halloween is here and the only thing scarier than all the ghouls and goblins is this year’s election. And as we barrel towards the most consequential election of our lifetimes, there is no neutral. No safe space. There is definitely no sitting this one out. And there is no shortage of scary stuff. Most of all, the prospect of a fascist president.

The Washington Post tried and failed to sit it out. Elon Musk on the other hand is all in. And apparently all in with Putin as reports emerged of the two conducting back channel communications since 2022. And all in for Trump’s rally at Madison Square Garden that felt a whole lot too close for comfort to the historic pre-WWII N**i rally at the same venue. Although, we’re pretty sure that one had fewer racist jokes.

It’s the last episode before the election and your host, Paul Rieckhoff () is here to break all of it down. And get you ready for a week full of tricks. And very few treats. Because on Independent Americans, we’re focused on not just what’s happening now, but also on what’s happening next. Especially the week before the election.

Every episode is the truth beyond the headlines–and light to contrast the heat of other politics and news shows. It’s content for the 51% of Americans that proudly call themselves independent.

🎙🚨This week, as the election draws closer, we’re narrowing the focus on national security. And we’ve got the perfect guest to discuss the topics that keep the watchers up at night and the area that is most likely to produce an October surprise. Tom Bowman is the legendary NPR National Desk reporter who covers the Pentagon along with co-hosting NPR's Taking Cover podcast and his latest podcast, “A Good Guy” from NPR’s Embedded.

In his current role, Bowman has traveled to Syria as well as Iraq and Afghanistan often for month-long visits and embedded with U.S. Marines and soldiers.

Before coming to NPR in April 2006, Bowman spent nine years as a Pentagon reporter at The Baltimore Sun. Altogether he was at The Sun for nearly two decades, covering the Maryland Statehouse, the U.S. Congress, the U.S. Naval Academy, and the National Security Agency (NSA). His coverage of racial and gender discrimination at NSA led to a Pentagon investigation in 1994.

Initially Bowman imagined his career path would take him into academia as a history, government, or journalism professor. During college Bowman worked as a stringer at The Patriot Ledger in Quincy, Mass. He also worked for the Daily Transcript in Dedham, Mass., and then as a reporter at States News Service, writing for the Miami Herald and the Anniston (Ala.) Star.

Bowman is a co-winner of a 2006 National Headliners' Award for stories on the lack of advanced tourniquets for U.S. troops in Iraq. In 2010, he received an Edward R. Murrow Award for his coverage of a Taliban roadside bomb attack on an Army unit. In 2024, Bowman was also awarded a Murrow Award for Best Investigative Reporting for the Taking Cover podcast. Bowman earned a Bachelor of Arts in history from St. Michael's College in Winooski, Vermont, and a master's degree in American Studies from Boston College.

He’s seen a lot, he’s done a lot and he goes deep with your host Paul Rieckhoff () in this hard hitting all new episode of Independent Americans. From post election violence to General John Kelly’s revelations about just how unfit Trump is for office to Hamas’ leader being killed by Israel, there is a lot happening. And even more that’s about to unfold as a result. Because on Independent Americans, we’re focused on not just what’s happening now, but also on what’s happening next. And when there is this much happening in the national security space, you better believe what happens next will be important.

🎙🚨Welcome back to our groundbreaking “Meet The 2024 Independent Candidates” series—highlighting independent candidates of all kinds, for all levels of office, from all across America. In our last episode we heard from Shelane Etchison, a super badass veteran running for Congress in North Carolina.

This episode we have another inspiring veteran. And he’s one of the hottest names in American politics today. You met him here first back in May in Episode 280. And it took the rest of the country a couple of months to catch up to the story, but he is finally now making national headlines. He’s union organizer, mechanic, first-time candidate and independent Navy veteran, Dan Osborn (). He’s running for Senate in Nebraska facing off against Senator Deb Fischer, a highly-partisan Republican incumbent who refuses to even debate Dan.

He’s shocking the political world by taking the lead in the race according to multiple recent polls. America is noticing. Voters are noticing. And his Republican opponent is definitely noticing. And you’ll hear from Dan unfiltered and uncensored from his home garage studio. You’ll hear how he plans to win, how he feels about Fisher refusing to debate him, what kind of car he’s working on in his garage with his son and how he feels about Army vs Navy in football! He’s redefining independents for the world–and showing that we can win.

And the voters of Nebraska aren’t alone in supporting independents. More and more people are registering as independents. In New York, voters are registering as independents in record numbers. You’ll learn more. And you’ll also hear Paul dig into American airstrikes you likely missed, new reasons to dislike Jill Stein AND action star Steven Seagal. Who is apparently buddies with Putin. Yes, really.

And your host Paul Rieckhoff () digs into all of it in this all new episode of Independent Americans. From North Korean involvement in the war in Ukraine to the US military bombing ISIS in Syria, Independent Americans covers the national and global security news you can’t afford to miss. Because on Independent Americans, we’re focused on not just what’s happening now, but also on what’s happening next.

🎙🚨Welcome back to our groundbreaking “Meet The 2024 Independent Candidates” series—highlighting independent candidates of all kinds, for all levels of office, from all across America. This week, we’re bringing back a powerhouse and fan favorite, Shelane Etchison (). She’s running for Congress in North Carolina’s 9th District while pregnant and at the same time dealing with the same devastation the rest of her state is experiencing in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene.

But she’s ready. As a combat veteran that used to jump out of planes into battlefields for a living, she’s ready. And she’s bringing the grit and independent spirit that drives this show and the growing independent movement to the campaign and making history while doing it becoming North Carolina’s first independent candidate to qualify for a federal race. It’s a massive accomplishment and it’s thanks to supporters like you, the real independent Americans.

If you’re interested in independent politics—or American politics in general—this is a can’t miss. If you’re an independent, you’ve found your home. And an inspiring one at that.

And your host Paul Rieckhoff () goes deep on all of it in this all new episode of Independent Americans. From the Presidential race to Jill Stein's propensity for lying, he’s hitting it all — hard. And reflecting on the last year and what the anniversary of 10/7 means here and in Israel. Plus updates on Mayor Disaster’s growing scandal in NYC, the latest from Ukraine, and the thwarted ISIS election day attack the FBI announced yesterday that seems to have been missed by most (all?) of the mainstream media.

And that’s why every episode of Independent Americans is the truth beyond the headlines–and light to contrast the heat of other politics and news shows. It’s content for the 49% of Americans that proudly call themselves independent. And delivers the Righteous Media 5 Is: independence, integrity, information, inspiration and impact. This is your home for independent news, politics, inspiration and hope.

🎙🚨The Democrats and Republicans are attacking each other on a daily basis. The presidential race is at a fever pitch. And 82% of all new voter registrations are independents. And as both sides try to court the undecideds and pander to their bases, we’ve been busy introducing you to America’s next generation of leaders. Independent leaders that stand on their own, in service of their communities.

America, meet Travis Endicott, independent veteran candidate for Mayor of Ridgecrest, California. Travis is a brilliant Army vet with multiple degrees, a PhD and two Masters. He works at a top secret lab in the kind of job you can’t really talk about. But the stuff he works on gets confused for alien spaceships—and we think that sounds really, really cool.

But he also is a man that cares. And when he heard about a new surveillance system the local police was deploying in his town, he decided to stand up and do something about it. And run for Mayor. It’s the kind of drive we love to see and the kind of candidate we love to stand behind.

And this episode is packed with all of the latest headlines. Your host Paul Rieckhoff breaks down all of the latest news from Ukraine, the Iranian attacks on Israel, the VP debate, Trump’s asinine comments about wounded troops, NYC Mayor Eric Adams and more. The weather might be cooling down, but the world is heating up. And while the cable stations are busy fighting over what happened, we’re focused on what’s next.

🎙🚨It’s 2024 and for some in politics, nothing is sacred. Not Arlington. Not 9/11. Not America. Nothing. And those people have our enemies celebrating. But not Independent Americans. And not on this show. This show is a celebration of the people who put country over party. The people who choose the right way over the easy way. And this show is a celebration of America and the American people.

And so when RFK Jr and Laura Loomer spread absurd and idiotic conspiracy theories about 9/11 on 9/11, you better believe we’re going to call them out on it. Meanwhile, at the same time they were out trying to cast doubt on the bravery of our heroes, we were gathered. Gathered in the historic site where George Washington declared he would not be a king to his men before returning home. Gathered to make the official introduction of the nine Independent Veterans of America endorsed independent veteran candidates from all across the country. From local counties in South Dakota to the US Senate in Washington. An Inspiring and dynamic group of independent veterans that are working to shape a better future for us all. Be like them. Work to build the future, not tear it down.

Leaders like Eric Faulkner, a former Navy Master Chief and a refreshing dose of positivity that wants to be a voice for the voiceless and promote positive change. His campaign for City Council in Temecula, California is a mission to help build a stronger community while setting a strong example that inspires others. He’s a strong independent who wants to build unity over division while representing diverse views, building flexibility in governance, and being an advocate for change. He’s an inspiring leader we think you’re going to want to hear more from. It’s the latest in our ongoing and groundbreaking “Meet the Independent Candidates” series.

And Paul’s got a new segment! It’s called, “While most Americans didn’t notice”. And you gonna wanna notice it! And, his thoughts on Jill Stein, Tommy Tuberville and more.

Every episode of Independent Americans is independent light to contrast the heat of other politics and news shows. It’s content for the 51% of Americans that now call themselves independent. Always with a unique focus on national security, foreign affairs and military and vets issues. This is another pod to help you stay vigilant. Because vigilance is the price of democracy. In these trying times especially, Independent Americans is your trusted place for independent news, politics and inspiration.

🎙🚨This year, as we pay respect to the 23rd anniversary of 9/11, your host and 9/11 First Responder, Paul Rieckhoff has a lot to teach us all. About what happened on that day. About what it means. And maybe most importantly, what it will mean for the future. 9/11 was a moment that horrified the world. But in that same moment, it galvanized us. It unified us. And it helped define the trajectory of nearly everyone’s life from that point forward.

And so on this anniversary, we reflect. On where we’ve been and where we’re headed.

Meanwhile this week, the historic and divisive presidential debate showed us all what the future might look like. For better or worse. And we’re digging into it from a uniquely independent perspective—yes, to include the Taylor Swift news.

But also this week, just blocks from the World Trade Center site, there was another vision of the future being presented. An independent and unifying future. One we can all share in, and one that you—as a listener of this show—are already a part of.

This week saw the official introduction of the nine Independent Veterans of America endorsed independent veteran candidates from all across the country. From local counties in South Dakota to the US Senate in Washington. An Inspiring and dynamic group of independent veterans that are working to shape a better future for us all. In the spirit of 9/11. At a time when we all need it most.

So download this pod now and get yourself a strong dose of independent hope, patriotism and inspiration.

🎙🚨Labor Day weekend was nice–if you got to get away or enjoy it. The weather was lovely in most parts of the country. But summer is now over. School is back in session. The craziest election season of our lifetime is upon us. And damn, summer already seems far away.

Trump and Harris are bombing away at full throttle now. And fighting for the coveted “swing voters” in swing states. But who are these powerful and mysterious voters? What do these mostly independent Americans really care about most? Why do we have to keep talking about Robert F Kennedy Jr? Why is Trump’s Arlington controversy still in the news? What did Senator John McCain’s son have to say? Can we please go back to summer?!?!

And meanwhile, war continues to rage around the world. Including involving US troops in…Iraq?!?! While Israel recovered six hostages brutally murdered by Hammas, Ukrainian civilians continue to be bombed and rocketed by Putin. The world is on fire and our broken political system is only making it worse.

So as summer fades and fall’s chill creeps in, our host, Paul Rieckhoff, will get you ready for a new school year, a wild fall election season, the 24th anniversary of 9/11 next week, AND the start of football! Because we’re all gonna need a break from news and politics this fall especially.
