All Episodes

October 17, 2025 • 20 mins

Martha MacCallum, executive editor and anchor of The Story at 3pm ET, and co-anchor of FOX News Politics, joined The Guy Benson Show today to discuss her recent newsy interview with New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani. MacCallum described Mamdani as "slick" and "smooth," but noted that his far-left Democratic Socialist policies are unlike anything New York has seen before. MacCallum and Benson also revisited Mamdani's refusal to answer a simple question about whether Hamas should disarm, and how his attempted clarification during last night's debate might only show how disingenuous he is. MacCallum and Benson also weighed in on Trump's ongoing negotiations to end the war between Russia and Ukraine, and you can listen to the full interview below! Learn more about your ad choices.

Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
