Hour 2: The Papal Porthole | 01-05-26

Dive into the legal, historical, and geopolitical rabbit hole with Lionel on The Other Side of Midnight. From the Monroe Doctrine and the arrest of Maduro to the myths of Pope Joan, this episode dismantles “cutesy” worldviews and replaces them with the cold reality of power politics. Lionel takes on callers over NATO’s borders, Islamic law, and the Treaty of Tripoli, proving that when it comes to the law, history, and common sense, most people just make it up. It’s entertaining, informative, and designed to help you understand what the heck is actually going on. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
