| 8/14/25 |  Is Journalism Dead? Gaza’s Targeted Reporters and the Media’s Moral Collapse | In this hard-hitting State of Play, host Greg Stoker asks the fundamental question: Is journalism as a formal institution dead? With award-winning conflict journalist Tara Sutton, Stoker examines the targeted killing of Palestinian reporter Anas al-Sharif and his colleagues in Gaza, breaking down why this was no accident and how Western media enables such war crimes. The conversation ranges from Gaza to Iraq to the culture of Western newsrooms — exposing the colonial mindset, propaganda, and ... | 1h 07m 33s | |
| 7/31/25 |  The Final Solution? Trump’s Gaza Aid Is Just Biden’s Port 2.0 | In this explosive episode of State of Play, Greg Stoker dissects Donald Trump’s bizarre Turnberry announcement, in which he promises “aid centers” in Gaza with “no fences, no boundaries.” But behind the humanitarian sheen lies a familiar blueprint—Biden’s failed Gaza aid port, reborn as a campaign spectacle. Greg exposes how both administrations have weaponized aid as propaganda while maintaining unwavering support for Israel’s ethnic cleansing campaign. He breaks down the contradictions in T... | 1h 01m 54s | |
| 7/25/25 |  Displacement Is the Policy: Gaza, ICE, and the Militarization of Control | This episode of State of Play connects the dots between Gaza’s deepening crisis and the militarization of immigration enforcement in the U.S. Host Greg Stoker is joined by Murad Awawdeh, head of the New York Immigration Coalition, who offers a powerful firsthand account of ICE raids and surveillance tactics in immigrant communities. From Israeli-designed predictive policing to famine being recast as "humanitarian success," this episode breaks down how displacement has become a glo... | 58m 43s | |
| 7/22/25 |  Why Does the World Suck So Bad Right Now? | In this powerful episode, host Greg Stoker dives deep into the pitfalls of “balanced debate,” especially around dangerous ideologies like fascism. Drawing on examples like Jubilee’s “1 vs 100” format, Greg dismantles the illusion that giving fringe, extremist views equal airtime promotes fairness. Instead, he argues that it normalizes harmful rhetoric and misleads audiences. Packed with engaging analysis and a call to ethical media practices, this episode challenges listener... | 1h 00m 46s | |
| 7/18/25 |  Crisis Theater: How Israel and the US Are Orchestrating Syria’s Collapse | In this episode of State of Play on MintPress News, host Greg Stoker is joined by Ahmad of Propaganda & Co and Robert Inlakesh, journalist at MintPress News, to unpack the latest round of violence in southern Syria—and the foreign agendas driving it. What started as clashes between Druze and Bedouin communities in Suwayda quickly escalated into a regional standoff. The Syrian government’s move to restore order with tanks was met by Israeli airstrikes in Damascus. Israel claimed it was pro... | 1h 14m 56s | |
| 7/16/25 |  Trump Joins the War Party: MAGA’s Foreign Policy Flip | Over the past six months, Donald Trump has abandoned the anti-war, anti-establishment rhetoric that once defined the MAGA movement. In this episode, Greg Stoker breaks down how Trump’s foreign policy now mirrors the bipartisan war machine he once opposed. From backing new sanctions on Russia and threatening U.S. allies, to echoing neoconservative talking points on NATO and Ukraine, Trump’s transformation is nearly complete. This episode examines how MAGA’s shift signals a br... | 1h 01m 02s | |
| 7/10/25 |  Tiger Teams to Concentration Camps: ICE and its Connections to Israeli Intelligence | In this episode of State of Play, host Greg Stoker is joined by journalist Jalyssa Dugrot and Middle East analyst Robert Inlakesh to expose a disturbing transnational alliance between U.S. immigration enforcement and Israeli intelligence-linked tech firms. They dig into ICE’s covert “Tiger Team,” which targeted over 5,000 student activists flagged by the blacklist website Canary Mission. We follow the money and military ties behind firms like Paragon Solutions and Zencity, Israeli companies n... | 1h 16m 46s | |
| 7/9/25 |  Big Beautiful Cover Up: Epstein, ICE and the MAGA War State | The Epstein case is officially over—no client list, no accountability, and no justice. Trump’s DOJ sealed the files under the guise of victim protection, but the timing is telling. While MAGA world celebrates “draining the swamp,” ICE quietly becomes the third-largest military force on Earth. In this episode, Greg Stoker opens on the elite-friendly conclusion to the Epstein saga and follows the thread through the militarization of ICE, the decline of U.S. prison retention, and the conso... | 1h 00m 23s | |
| 7/4/25 |  Gaza Aid or Cover for War? US Mercenaries Accused of Firing on Civilians | As famine ravages northern Gaza, so-called humanitarian efforts backed by the United States are coming under fire—literally. In this episode, investigative journalist Robert Inlakesh breaks down disturbing reports that U.S.-linked mercenaries guarding the Gaza maritime aid pier have been firing on Palestinian civilians. Eyewitnesses say American contractors are working alongside Israeli forces in military operations that blur the line between aid and warfare. We examine the origin... | 1h 17m 04s | |
| 7/1/25 |  Inside the Gaza Aid Crisis: Sniper Fire, Contaminated Flour, and Ceasefire Theater | In this explosive episode of State of Play, former Army Ranger and intelligence analyst Greg Stoker exposes the brutal truth behind Israel’s so-called humanitarian aid campaign in Gaza. As mainstream media focuses on ceasefire theater, Israel continues to fire on civilians gathered at food distribution points, deliver flour laced with opioids, and deploy ISIS-linked gangs to guard the very convoys claiming to provide relief. Backed by U.S. weapons, funding, and diplomatic cover, these tactics... | 59m 54s |
