Barack Obama, Jolanda Jones, Sydney Sweeney, and Stephen King step into the spotlight today for a fresh breakdown of hypocrisy, false narratives, and fear-based messaging. In this episode, Ryan tears apart the identity-politics routine, the throat-slitting rhetoric, the outrage over a jeans ad, and the viral misinformation posted without a second thought.
This episode focuses on why people still align with contradiction, reactionary language, and emotional manipulation — and why more voters than ever are walking away from it. A sharp, unfiltered look at the gap between what these voices claim… and what they actually do.

(00:00):
He turned it into a lifestyle brand and I believe he is where
the true divide in this country began.
So here he is endorsing Abigail Spam Burger for governor of
Virginia. A white woman, nothing unusual
except the Republican that she was running against is a black
woman, Winsome Earl Sears. Play the clip, guys.
(00:27):
I am here to ask you to vote. From the next.
Governor of Virginia Abigail Steinberger.
All right, Barry, so when it comes to choosing between a
black woman and a Democrat, guess which one wins in Barack's
eyes? And Jolanda Jones, this is her,
(00:47):
a Texas representative. And listen to what comes out of
her mouth. Go ahead, guys.
Work. I'm from the hood.
OK, so when a bully comes, like if there are no rules, you
literally have to figure it out.So Donald Trump has changed
things. Nothing like coming together
(01:08):
bipartisan in government and talking things out.
So in this interview with GQS Catherine Stoffel, this reporter
treats it like Sydney just delivered a manifesto.
Play this, the criticism of the content, which was basically
that maybe specifically in this political climate, like white
(01:29):
people shouldn't joke about genetic superiority.
Like, that was kind of like the criticism, broadly speaking,
and. Welcome to Stay in the Fray
podcast. I'm your host, Ryan.
This is where headlines get hit hard.
Hypocracy gets shredded and the absurd are laughed at.
(01:52):
If you want comfort, this isn't your place.
If you want blunt and unfiltered, I'm your guy.
Join me in the fray all you needto.
Do is just? Listen up, all right?
Hey, guys, Welcome back. I I'm going to do another.
They really said that because it's just too easy.
(02:13):
I suppose the hypocrisy from theleft is not slowing down.
It's getting louder, sloppier. Honestly, it's kind of sad to a
point. When people feel power slipping
away, the behavior gets primitive.
That's what you're watching now,Desperation dressed up as
(02:35):
activism. Every week.
I think this segment might get alittle calmer, maybe a lighter
week, maybe less crying, maybe fewer panic attacks disguised as
moral authority. Then these people open their
mouths and they give me materialfor like 10 shows all in one
breath. Today is simple hypocrisy.
(02:57):
Misinformation again. It's the theme.
I despise hypocrisy. I despise virtue signalling.
These people are champions of both people who preach one
thing, do the opposite, and thenswear you're insane for
noticing. This isn't politics anymore.
(03:18):
It's survival panic from a side that knows it's fading.
Join me. This is Stay in the Fray
podcast. It is November the 10th, 2025.
Let's roll. I'm going to start with our
headliner for today, Barack Obama.
(03:39):
The unofficial, unelected world tour president.
The man who left office and thenspent the next decade pretending
that his term just never ended. You know how actors get stuck on
a roll? Obama is still method acting as
commander in chief. He goes across overseas and acts
(04:00):
like he's has some sort of authority.
I know he had practice though holding the puppet strings of
Joe Biden for four years, but there is literally an amendment
about pretending to hold office when you don't and he's been tap
dancing on that line for years. This guy has built in his entire
(04:20):
personality around playing victim while teaching the rest
of the country to do the same. Nobody has pushed identity
politics harder, louder, or withmore self righteousness.
He turned it into a lifestyle brand and I believe he is where
the true divide in this country began.
(04:42):
So here he is endorsing Abigail Spamburger for governor of
Virginia. A white woman, nothing unusual,
except the Republican that she was running against is a black
woman, Winsome Earl Sears. This is the same Obama who has
(05:03):
spent years lecturing the country about how people are
scared to vote for a black woman.
Except apparently he was too. Play the clip, guys.
I'm here to ask you to vote for the next governor of Virginia,
(05:25):
Abigail Spenberger. And, and, and, and Lord knows,
we need that light, we need thatinspiration because let's face
it, our country and our politicsare in a pretty dark place right
now. It's hard to know where to
(05:50):
start, because every day this White House offers up a fresh
batch of lawlessness and recklessness and mean
spiritedness and just plain craziness.
(06:13):
All right, Barry, so when it comes to choosing between a
black woman and a Democrat, guess which one wins in Barack's
eyes every time? More on the rest of the nonsense
he just spewed in a second. But it turns out that the
identity politics hero doesn't actually care about identity
(06:37):
when it's inconvenient. He cares about the letter next
to the name. And then take a look at this
clip really quick. Obama is lecturing a room of
young black men before the 2024 election.
Talk to them like their children, like he wants to
control them, like they're incapable of forming their own
(06:58):
opinion. Roll it, boys.
I also want to say that that seems to be more pronounced with
the brothers. So if you don't mind, just for a
second, I'm going to speak to y'all directly and say that when
(07:18):
you have a choice that is this clean, when on the one hand you
have somebody who grew up like you, knows you, went to college
with you, understands the struggles and pain and joy that
(07:46):
comes from those experiences. That's all you need to see.
He continues on. To tell these young black men
that they need to. How dare they think about voting
for anybody else but a black woman.
What was that accent too? I haven't heard that one before.
(08:08):
You don't hear that when he delivers speeches.
So he's acting like they're afraid to vote for a woman.
A black woman basically guilt tripping them into voting for
Kamala Harris. It's one of the most
manipulative little speeches that I've ever heard.
(08:29):
It's straight out of the DEI starter pack.
If you don't vote for her, you're betraying your identity.
That's the message. It wasn't.
Check out all these amazing policies that she has.
Meanwhile, Republicans are the ones saying, I don't care what
race you are, I don't care what gender you are.
Can you do the job? That seems so simple.
(08:52):
So who's actually the ones obsessed with race?
Who's actually obsessed with sex?
Use your head. It's right there.
Now let's go back to the what hewas saying at the Spanberger
rally. He claimed our country and our
politics are in a dark time right now.
No, Barack, your politics might be in a dark time right now
(09:16):
because nothing you listed in that little whatever you did is
real. Let's check the scoreboard.
Costs are fine. Jobs are coming back.
Jobs come back to this country and back as a whole. 4 Investors
are dumping hundreds of billionsinto the US.
The trade deficit has been cut in half in nine months.
(09:39):
Conflicts around the world are being shut down before the they
explode any further. The border is finally being
enforced. Violent cities are finally being
held to account. What exactly is dark, Barack?
It's that your fear narratives aren't landing anymore.
That's what's dark to you. People are fleeing your act.
(10:03):
And then he says the White Houseis serving up lawlessness every
day. Lawlessness from an
administration that's enforcing immigration law and one that
wants law to be enforced for criminals in the cities.
Here's the kicker. Obama deported more people than
any president in U.S. history, but suddenly he's the guardian
(10:27):
Angel of compassion. He knows he's lying.
He knows he's an asshole, but he's not dumb.
And that makes it worse. The next line this
administration is giving off mean spiritedness.
Really. Which side is calling for
violence? Carrying out violence?
(10:49):
Labeling anyone who disagrees? A Nazi?
Who's destroying cities? Who's been blocking the
highways? Screaming fascists at people who
are just trying to go to work, Obama acts like the moral
referee while his team is literally throwing bricks from
the sidelines. And while we're here, let's not
(11:14):
forget this guy. Obama is still under fire for
the fake Russian collusion that his the the mess that his
administration has helped to feed.
He's not in the clear, but sure,let's pretend that he is the
trusted truth teller in the room.
Obama has one consistent skill. Accuse others of doing the exact
(11:37):
thing he's been doing for years.He didn't bring unity, he
fractured it. He made identity of the center
of politics and people followed him down that path.
Everyone became a victim and accountability evaporated.
And now he's using his platform to lie, to guilt trip and to
(11:58):
manipulate for political gain. Same old playbook, same old act.
And judging by the massive shiftof black voters toward Donald
Trump, it looks like the old Obama routine isn't fooling
anyone anymore. All right, Barack, done with you
(12:18):
on the same level. Almost.
Is somebody named Jolanda Jones.I should know her.
She's a Texas representative. But since Obama wants to lecture
everyone about mean spiritedness, let's take a look
at what his own bench is servingup.
And Yolanda Jones, this is her, a Texas representative.
(12:43):
And listen to what comes out of her mouth.
Go ahead, guys. Work out from the hood.
OK, so when a bully comes, like if there are no rules, you
literally have to figure it out.So Donald Trump has changed
things and people trying to do what's always been done is not
going to work. And I think that's why Democrats
(13:03):
are losing black people. That's why they're losing poor
people. Because poor people, all they
want is for us to fight. So if you hit me in my face, I'm
not going to punch you back in your face.
I'm going to go across your neck.
Because we can go back and forthfighting each other's faces.
You've got to hit hard enough where they won't come back.
Nothing like coming together bipartisan in government and
(13:29):
talking things out. Nope, that's not what Jolanda
wants to do. See the the throat slitting
gesture that she just gave? So classy.
I'm I'm embarrassed to be in Texas.
And that that is one of our representatives.
This is the same group telling everyone else to lower the
temperature and restore decency.Meanwhile, she's up there giving
(13:51):
survival tips from a scene she thinks she's starring in.
And the reasoning? She says Democrats are losing
black voters and poor voters. Well, yeah.
These people like you are out here talking like you're
auditioning for a revenge thriller.
You sound like a maniac. And then she tries to blame
Trump for the shift. Trump has changed things.
(14:13):
How? By asking for accountability?
By calling people out when they lie.
If that's what she thinks qualifies as changing things, it
explains a lot. They're losing voters because
people are tired of nonsense like this from their supposed
leaders. Public servants who talk like
they're announcing A vendetta instead instead of representing
(14:36):
communities. Republicans do not speak like
this. They don't encourage violence.
I challenge any of you to provide me a clip of someone on
the right with this type of violent claims towards the left.
This right here. This is the behavior Obama and
company should be condemning. But he won't.
(14:58):
They won't because calling out that side, their own side, ruins
the narrative, the punchline. The same voters that she claims
to represent are leaving her party in massive numbers.
So keep digging. It's working out well for us.
All right, let's shift gears to something a little bit lighter,
(15:18):
but somehow an issue that's still lingering.
The lovely Sydney Sweeney and mygirl crushed this one.
So for those of you who somehow don't know what happened with
her, here's the setup. Sydney does a jeans ad Denim
People goes on your on your lower body and the campaign uses
(15:41):
a simple word play about genes, like human genes.
It's cute, harmless marketing One O 1 The reaction the woke
left screamed and melted down like someone had declared a
national emergency over denim. You'd think Sidney Sweeney
insulted anyone not white instead of making a word play in
(16:04):
a genes ad. These professional victims
cannot handle even the slightesthint of a white woman being
confident, joking, or proud of anything, even her own jeans,
denim or other. The idea that she might appear
comfortable in her own skin madethem short circuit.
(16:25):
It always does. So in this interview with GQS,
Catherine Stoffel Think I said that correctly.
This reporter treats it like Sydney just delivered a
manifesto. Play this.
The criticism of the content, which was basically that maybe
specifically in this political climate, like white people
(16:47):
shouldn't joke about genetic superiority, like that was kind
of like the criticism broadly speaking.
And since you are talking about this, I just wanted to give you
an opportunity to talk about that specifically.
I think that when I I have an issue that I want to speak
about, people will hear. That a girl she is.
(17:11):
Sydney is so hot. I'm sorry.
Allow me to translate for the reporter.
I'm trying really hard to make this a controversy.
Again, please apologize so I canwrite my article.
Sydney doesn't flinch, She doesn't growl.
She doesn't fall for the little trap, she just says when there's
(17:31):
an issue I want to speak about, people will hear perfect, calm,
solid, confident. No panic, no guilt, no bending.
Just I'll speak when I damn wellchoose to.
And let's be honest, everyone isallowed to be proud of their
genes. All groups, all backgrounds, all
(17:55):
identities. Be proud, and that includes
white people by the way. I'm tired of this bullshit.
It's not our fault you all feel badly about yourselves.
Some people want the whole worldwalking on egg shells because of
it and because it keeps them in control.
Sydney wasn't having it and I'm proud of her.
(18:17):
Sydney, I have officially moved you to the number one spot on my
celebrity crush list, and my wife actually approves.
Keep being you, Sydney. It's very refreshing.
All right, let's jump last but not least, to Stephen King.
This is a man who's written someof the most popular horror
(18:38):
stories ever made, which I suppose may be why he sometimes
struggles differentiating between fiction and real life.
So King jumps on X and posts this righteous little take.
It says Trump says he won't invite either team playing in
the World Series to the White House.
He can't rise above his petty political concerns, even for the
(19:02):
Great American Game. If anything shows what a louse
he is, That's it. It took about 12 seconds for
people to point out the truth. Trump never said that.
Nothing even close. The only places that existed
(19:22):
were parody accounts, satire, and Stephen King.
This Pulitzer level writer, thisdecorated storyteller, this guy
with quite a platform, didn't bother to do a 2 second check
before firing off his lecture. That is a perfect demonstration
of TDs and obsession. Meanwhile, he's part of the same
(19:45):
crowd that applauded athletes for refusing to go to the White
House under previous administrations when Trump was
there. Back then, skipping the White
House was heroic. Now, suddenly, the idea of Trump
not inviting them is an act of political treason.
So which one is it, Steven? Which one is it?
(20:05):
Everybody on the left? Is it petty to avoid the White
House as an athlete, or is it patriotic?
Is it petty for Donald Trump to not invite athletes?
Which he didn't. He he didn't not invite anybody.
This is all bullshit. But what if he had?
What if he said Nope? You can't have it both ways.
(20:29):
This is what happens when hatredbecomes a hobby.
You start believing fake headlines because they tell you
what you want to hear. You wake up every day looking
for them, just like Stephen King, and then you post them
before the ink on your outrage is even dry.
What an absolute fool. And that's the part that gets me
every time. The hypocrisy, the false
(20:51):
rhetoric, the victory routine dressed up as moral authority.
And somehow some people are still buying it.
Why would anyone want to align themselves with this nonsense?
The contradictions, the performative outrage, the weak
minded buzzwords at everybody, the tough guy threats from
(21:13):
people who couldn't win a pillowfight.
It's a mystery to me. I don't get it.
But here's the upside. People are waking up overall.
You can feel it. You can see it in the polling,
in the conversations, in the energy.
The old tricks don't land the way they used to.
(21:35):
The guilt trips don't work. The fear campaigns don't work.
The you're not allowed to question this attitude doesn't
work. Reality is breaking through.
Reason is starting to win again.And if you want to help push
that forward, share the show. Listen to shows like it.
(21:56):
We're out there and we're pushing this.
It's important. Give me a like, follow,
subscribe, all that stuff. I hate asking for it, but but it
matters. Help me spread the sanity.
Send me some of these clips by the way, to call out if you see
them. Think Ryan would crush this?
He would annihilate them. Send it my way.
(22:19):
I'd really appreciate it. Let's do this together.
We are a team. So you and me against the noise.
Stay sharp, stay skeptical, stayfearless, stay in the fray.
Love you guys. All you need to do is just.
(22:40):
Listen U.
He turned it into a lifestyle brand and I believe he is where
the true divide in this country began.
So here he is endorsing Abigail Spam Burger for governor of
Virginia. A white woman, nothing unusual
except the Republican that she was running against is a black
woman, Winsome Earl Sears. Play the clip, guys.
(00:27):
I am here to ask you to vote. From the next.
Governor of Virginia Abigail Steinberger.
All right, Barry, so when it comes to choosing between a
black woman and a Democrat, guess which one wins in Barack's

Let's roll. I'm going to start with our

wants to do. See the the throat slitting
gesture that she just gave? So classy.
I'm I'm embarrassed to be in Texas.
And that that is one of our representatives.
This is the same group telling everyone else to lower the
temperature and restore decency.Meanwhile, she's up there giving
(13:51):
survival tips from a scene she thinks she's starring in.
And the reasoning? She says Democrats are losing
black voters and poor voters. Well, yeah.
These people like you are out here talking like you're
auditioning for a revenge thriller.
You sound like a maniac. And then she tries to blame
Trump for the shift. Trump has changed things.
(14:13):
How? By asking for accountability?
By calling people out when they lie.
If that's what she thinks qualifies as changing things, it
explains a lot. They're losing voters because
people are tired of nonsense like this from their supposed
leaders. Public servants who talk like
they're announcing A vendetta instead instead of representing
(14:36):
communities. Republicans do not speak like
this. They don't encourage violence.
I challenge any of you to provide me a clip of someone on
the right with this type of violent claims towards the left.
This right here. This is the behavior Obama and
company should be condemning. But he won't.
(14:58):
They won't because calling out that side, their own side, ruins
the narrative, the punchline. The same voters that she claims
to represent are leaving her party in massive numbers.
So keep digging. It's working out well for us.
All right, let's shift gears to something a little bit lighter,
(15:18):
but somehow an issue that's still lingering.
The lovely Sydney Sweeney and mygirl crushed this one.
So for those of you who somehow don't know what happened with
her, here's the setup. Sydney does a jeans ad Denim
People goes on your on your lower body and the campaign uses
(15:41):
a simple word play about genes, like human genes.
It's cute, harmless marketing One O 1 The reaction the woke
left screamed and melted down like someone had declared a
national emergency over denim. You'd think Sidney Sweeney
insulted anyone not white instead of making a word play in
(16:04):
a genes ad. These professional victims
cannot handle even the slightesthint of a white woman being
confident, joking, or proud of anything, even her own jeans,
denim or other. The idea that she might appear
comfortable in her own skin madethem short circuit.
(16:25):
It always does. So in this interview with GQS,
Catherine Stoffel Think I said that correctly.
This reporter treats it like Sydney just delivered a
manifesto. Play this.
The criticism of the content, which was basically that maybe
specifically in this political climate, like white people
(16:47):
shouldn't joke about genetic superiority, like that was kind
of like the criticism broadly speaking.
And since you are talking about this, I just wanted to give you
an opportunity to talk about that specifically.
I think that when I I have an issue that I want to speak
about, people will hear. That a girl she is.
(17:11):
Sydney is so hot. I'm sorry.
Allow me to translate for the reporter.
I'm trying really hard to make this a controversy.
Again, please apologize so I canwrite my article.
Sydney doesn't flinch, She doesn't growl.
She doesn't fall for the little trap, she just says when there's
(17:31):
an issue I want to speak about, people will hear perfect, calm,
solid, confident. No panic, no guilt, no bending.
Just I'll speak when I damn wellchoose to.
And let's be honest, everyone isallowed to be proud of their
genes. All groups, all backgrounds, all
(17:55):
identities. Be proud, and that includes
white people by the way. I'm tired of this bullshit.
It's not our fault you all feel badly about yourselves.
Some people want the whole worldwalking on egg shells because of
it and because it keeps them in control.
Sydney wasn't having it and I'm proud of her.
(18:17):
Sydney, I have officially moved you to the number one spot on my
celebrity crush list, and my wife actually approves.
Keep being you, Sydney. It's very refreshing.
All right, let's jump last but not least, to Stephen King.
This is a man who's written someof the most popular horror
(18:38):
stories ever made, which I suppose may be why he sometimes
struggles differentiating between fiction and real life.
So King jumps on X and posts this righteous little take.
It says Trump says he won't invite either team playing in
the World Series to the White House.
He can't rise above his petty political concerns, even for the
(19:02):
Great American Game. If anything shows what a louse
he is, That's it. It took about 12 seconds for
people to point out the truth. Trump never said that.
Nothing even close. The only places that existed
(19:22):
were parody accounts, satire, and Stephen King.
This Pulitzer level writer, thisdecorated storyteller, this guy
with quite a platform, didn't bother to do a 2 second check
before firing off his lecture. That is a perfect demonstration
of TDs and obsession. Meanwhile, he's part of the same
(19:45):
crowd that applauded athletes for refusing to go to the White
House under previous administrations when Trump was
there. Back then, skipping the White
House was heroic. Now, suddenly, the idea of Trump
not inviting them is an act of political treason.
So which one is it, Steven? Which one is it?
(20:05):
Everybody on the left? Is it petty to avoid the White
House as an athlete, or is it patriotic?
Is it petty for Donald Trump to not invite athletes?
Which he didn't. He he didn't not invite anybody.
This is all bullshit. But what if he had?
What if he said Nope? You can't have it both ways.
(20:29):
This is what happens when hatredbecomes a hobby.
You start believing fake headlines because they tell you
what you want to hear. You wake up every day looking
for them, just like Stephen King, and then you post them
before the ink on your outrage is even dry.
What an absolute fool. And that's the part that gets me
every time. The hypocrisy, the false
(20:51):
rhetoric, the victory routine dressed up as moral authority.
And somehow some people are still buying it.
Why would anyone want to align themselves with this nonsense?
The contradictions, the performative outrage, the weak
minded buzzwords at everybody, the tough guy threats from
(21:13):
people who couldn't win a pillowfight.
It's a mystery to me. I don't get it.
But here's the upside. People are waking up overall.
You can feel it. You can see it in the polling,
in the conversations, in the energy.
The old tricks don't land the way they used to.
(21:35):
The guilt trips don't work. The fear campaigns don't work.
The you're not allowed to question this attitude doesn't
work. Reality is breaking through.
Reason is starting to win again.And if you want to help push
that forward, share the show. Listen to shows like it.
(21:56):
We're out there and we're pushing this.
It's important. Give me a like, follow,
subscribe, all that stuff. I hate asking for it, but but it
matters. Help me spread the sanity.
Send me some of these clips by the way, to call out if you see
them. Think Ryan would crush this?
He would annihilate them. Send it my way.
(22:19):
I'd really appreciate it. Let's do this together.
We are a team. So you and me against the noise.
Stay sharp, stay skeptical, stayfearless, stay in the fray.
Love you guys. All you need to do is just.
