We (Seriously) Polled 1,417 Americans
In this episode, Pablo Torre teams up with Tim Miller, Sam Stein, and research firm YouGov to poll a bipartisan sample of 1,417 U.S. adults just before the midterm elections. The survey explores how politics and sports intersect, revealing surprising attitudes and trends among voters. Listeners can also catch the discussion on Apple Podcasts, and the post notes the outlet’s reader‑supported model.
We Followed Life Surge’s Money
The latest installment of the Life Surge investigation revisits the September report that first linked Tim Tebow and Kiera Butler of Mother Jones to the controversial health‑tech firm. After a string of high‑profile departures—including Magic Johnson, Red Sox legend David Ortiz, Celtics coach Joe Mazzulla, and megachurch leader Craig Groeschel—former ESPN analyst Sage Steele remains the only prominent figure still seen at a Life Surge event. The reporters detail their on‑site encounter and the new insights uncovered about the company’s ongoing influence.
Strategies, Choices, and Nathan Fielder
The author, a frequent subject of docu‑style scam investigations, recounts watching the new series *You Can See Everything* alone—twice—before inviting New York Times critic Wesley Morris for a discussion. The post blends personal reaction with insights on how the show’s tone and genre spark legal and journalistic pushback, and promotes PTFO’s reader‑supported model and its new Apple Podcasts feed.
A Visit from Blake Griffin
The latest PTFO episode dives into Blake Griffin’s surprise studio visit, questioning whether the Clippers’ recent series was staged to lure the NBA legend. Host Pablo Torre explores Griffin’s comic escape from Steve Ballmer, the role of “insiders,” and whether comedian Joe Mande will become his Filipino Andy Rooney. The discussion also teases a quirky YouTube thumbnail cap price and supports The Kyra Fund, with a nod to the new Apple Podcasts version.
We Unboxed the Secret Wu-Tang Album
The post dives into the saga of the most expensive album ever sold—a secret, one‑of‑a‑kind Wu‑Tang Clan art project that sparked a decade‑long controversy and strained the legendary rap group. It explains the roles of Martin Shkreli, Method Man, Cilvaringz, and the crypto‑art collective PleasrDAO, and offers background for readers new to the story. The article also promotes the outlet’s reader‑supported journalism and notes where to watch or listen to the full episode.
Get to the Chopper
In the latest "The Sporting (Cl)ass" episode, former NFLPA president and NBPA COO Domonique Foxworth joins ex‑Marlins president David Samson to tackle two hot topics: a surprise link to Carmelo Anthony and a standout discussion praised as the episode’s highlight. The show, supported by reader donations, also promotes its new Apple Podcasts presence and offers a YouTube spoiler warning.
