Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative journalist Julia Angwin joins Tara Palmeri to discuss her new book, On Courage: How to Be a Dissident in the Age of Fear. Drawing on stories from whistleblowers, journalists, activists, and ordinary citizens around the world, Angwin explains why authoritarianism thrives on fear—and why collective, nonviolent action has historically been its greatest weakness. They discuss the warning signs of democratic backsliding, the importance of independent journalism, how corruption ultimately weakens authoritarian movements, and what ordinary people can do to resist intimidation without resorting to violence.

Tara Palmeri sits down with producer Chris Fenton — dubbed "Hollywood's MAGA whisperer" — to unpack how an entire industry is learning to speak Donald Trump's language. With LA hemorrhaging jobs (50,000 lost in recent years) and production fleeing to the UK, Canada, and 80-plus countries offering national tax incentives, Hollywood is pushing for a federal film incentive to bring shoots back to America. The catch: getting it passed runs through a president who rewards allies and punishes critics. Fenton lays out the economics — state-by-state rebates, why Marvel left Georgia for Britain, and why the real beneficiaries are middle-class "below the line" crews in red states, not the Hollywood elite the public loves to hate. But Tara presses on the harder question lurking underneath the talking points: where does lobbying end and self-censorship begin? She and Fenton spar over whether studios are quietly shelving politically risky projects to avoid angering Trump, the payouts ABC and CBS have made, the firing of late-night hosts, and the broadcast networks afraid of losing their licenses. Fenton concedes the biggest tell of all: a film about Jeffrey Epstein that actually examined Donald Trump's role would "never get a full release" from a major studio. Tara argues it's the biggest corruption story of our time and 80% of the country would watch it — yet Hollywood won't touch it. Along the way: the China problem (why James Bond never has a Chinese villain), Steve Bannon's surprising openness to the idea, Fenton's own story of being shut out of left-leaning platforms, and his new faith-tinged comedy "Bad Counselors." 0:00 – Has Hollywood flipped?
