They Missed. We Sank Their Tankers. (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Iran fired ballistic missiles at U.S. Navy warships. The missiles missed. The response didn’t. In this episode of Seasoned & Unfiltered, Steveo digs into the September attacks on American warships and the subsequent U.S. strikes against Iranian oil tankers — a military story he argues got overshadowed by headlines about rising oil and fuel prices. And those prices matter. When oil jumps, Americans feel it at the pump, at the grocery store, through shipping costs, and everywhere else fuel touches
When Political Violence Becomes a Punchline (opens the original)
Read excerpt
One year after the assassination of Charlie Kirk, Steveo has a question that goes far beyond whether you agreed with the man: When did political violence become something to joke about? In this episode of Seasoned & Unfiltered, Steveo looks at the anniversary of Kirk’s assassination, Utah Valley University’s decision to cancel classes while a memorial takes place under heightened security, and the uncomfortable way institutions talk around political violence without always calling it what it is.
“Transitory” Was a Hell of an Expensive Word (opens the original)
Read excerpt
They told us inflation was “transitory.” Apparently, “transitory” can last a little longer than expected.

Read excerpt
The ceasefire was supposed to buy peace. But did it actually just buy Iran time? In this episode of Seasoned & Unfiltered, Steveo takes a hard look at the agreement between the United States and Iran following the conflict that disrupted one of the most important shipping routes in the world: the Strait of Hormuz. At the center of Steveo’s concern is some very specific language in the 14-point agreement. Iran agreed to use its “best efforts” to allow commercial vessels to safely pass through the
A Bomb Is a Bomb | The Double Standard on Political Violence | Seasoned & Unfiltered Ep. 21 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Does political violence get judged differently depending on who's responsible? This week on Seasoned & Unfiltered, Steve O. examines a controversial speech delivered by Secretary of State Marco Rubio and asks whether America has spent decades applying different standards to political violence based on ideology. From the Weather Underground and Bill Ayers to modern-day terrorism statistics and media coverage, Steve explores whether institutions, academia, and the press have consistently portrayed
