They have lost trust and faith in government, business, media and not-for-profit institutions at a moment of technological, cultural and economic upheaval. Fascism did not rise in the 1930s because it was strong, but rather, because democracy was weak. The cycle is repeating itself with a new extremism rising in 2020s America. On the podcast – consistent with the mission of The Warning newsletter offered on Substack and The Warning YouTube channel – I will be joined by interesting guests – some familiar, and some you may never have heard of – to discuss the political and cultural currents that are shaping our times, as well as the unseen forces driving politics that are rarely discussed on cable news. It's important for you to hear from a diverse range of voices – not just me – about the issues facing America today.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-17T06:20:58.030791+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-warning-with-steve-schmidt-6301038"},"episode":{"title":"Dead Air: Weekend at Mitch's | Steve Schmidt & Dean Blundell","slug":"dead-air-weekend-at-mitch-s-steve-schmidt-dean-blundell","published_at":"2026-07-11T21:52:06+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-warning-with-steve-schmidt-6301038/dead-air-weekend-at-mitch-s-steve-schmidt-dean-blundell","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-warning-with-steve-schmidt-6301038","url":"https://omny.fm/shows/the-warning-with-steve-schmidt/dead-air-weekend-at-mitchs-steve-schmidt-dean-blundell","audio_url":"https://podtrac.com/pts/redirect.mp3/traffic.omny.fm/d/clips/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/33540024-ed06-44d0-a06c-b33100f8453e/b2a10e68-f6ea-4cba-aabf-b484015ec849/audio.mp3?utm_source=Podcast&in_playlist=2307f122-2695-49ea-a058-b33100f84545","summary":"Nobody has seen Mitch McConnell in weeks.
