The Rising Transistor (https://transistor.fm) https://feeds.transistor.fm/the-rising America stands at a crossroads, darker and more dangerous than many realize. On The Rising, we ask: What will it really take to defeat American fascism? How can we rise to the heights our parents and grandparents did when they faced the darkness of the Depression and World War II? We must find that same strength in ourselves, and each other, but it will take real courage, brutal honesty, and a level of coordinated action many of us have never attempted. This is not just a podcast, it’s a call to clarity, conviction, and the fight of our lives. A rising is coming. © 2026 TDO Media d87cbaec-9753-5eea-9b33-fc6c9f083cdf yes Official Trailer | The Rising en Wed, 20 May 2026 10:59:07 -0700 Wed, 20 May 2026 10:59:30 -0700 https://www.thedangerousones.com https://img.transistorcdn.com/T0GfEm1NvwcTvIXKzVfrgrWILccE6s9Cne56MuTYIDc/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:1400/h:1400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9kNzEw/OThiYTAxYjA3Njhm/YWUxMzMxNzNkNjQx/ZDYyZi5wbmc.jpg The Rising https://www.thedangerousones.com episodic Marshall Herskovitz, Nick Knudsen America stands at a crossroads, darker and more dangerous than many realize.

From reforming Section 230 to defending “free minds” as a civic right, this episode takes on the toxic influence of AI, algorithms, and unregulated corporate greed that’s corroding truth and democracy.
