Cicadas and Cover-Ups: Vindman and Jo Take on the Summer of Denial  
Podcast: Sane(ish) with Jo Carducci
Published On: Tue Jul 29 2025
Description: Lieutenant Colonel Alexander Vindman joins Jojo from Jerz in the July heat (cicadas and all) to break down a week when political theater has nothing on the real-world consequences of cowardice and cover-ups. From Trump’s “Ukraine Pivot” to the MAGA meltdown over the Epstein files, Vindman pulls zero punches.They unpack Tulsi Gabbard’s attempts to get back in the Trump camp, what’s really holding up peace in Ukraine (hint: it’s not Kyiv), and why Russia’s old playbook keeps working on both sides of the Atlantic. Jo digs deep for the “WTF” of it all, how far right narratives fuel chaos, and what’s at stake when America’s so-called leaders would rather distract, duck cameras, or chase conspiracies than actually govern.Subscribe and Follow Jo:https://linktr.ee/jojofromjerz Hosted on Acast.
