The Short News Podcast

Alex Madore

Not the news. The Short News. Host Alex Madore returns to the charged, comedic, and blunt voice that made TSN a cult favorite during 2020’s lockdowns — blending raw honesty, political satire, strange headlines, and personal storytelling into a condensed format designed for people who’ve seen too much - but this time he’s not a college student learning the ropes. From systemic injustice to personal recovery, from metaphysical weirdness to pop culture absurdity, The Short News covers it all — with a a firmer stance, sharper bits, and zero allegiance to either side of the aisle.

As if rising gas prices weren't enough of a struggle for the American people right now, the wartime news gets even more unfortunate. Between the military becoming suspiciously lenient about who they recruit, and discussions of a draft as the US continues to attack Iran, it seems more and more like something expensive and dangerous is coming. Also, yes, Alex rants about gas prices and that spirals into a wartime discussion about the United States, Iran, Israel, and like zero fun voice impressions.
