What this episode covers

Michael Smerconish dives deep into the political and media frenzy surrounding Donald Trump's latest attempt to broker peace between Russia and Ukraine. Joined by 2WAY Editor-in-Chief Mark Halperin, the two dissect how Trump's controversial style, Biden comparisons, and European diplomacy are being portrayed — and often distorted — by the press. Is this a serious step toward ending the war, or just another political circus? A must-listen episode for anyone trying to cut through the noise. Original air date 20 August 2025.
