The Tony Michaels Podcast was an independent political commentary and accountability program hosted by Tony Michaels.
It is no longer publishing new episodes. Regular publication ended in July 2026 after more than 1,100 episodes, and the complete body of work remains available as an archive.
What The Tony Michaels Podcast Covered
The Tony Michaels Podcast examined American politics through the lens of constitutional accountability, concentrated power, democracy, corruption, oligarchy, executive overreach, courts, Congress, political media and the lives of working people.
It was not built around politics as a team sport. The program returned to a more important set of questions:
Who holds power?
Who abuses it?
Who profits from it?
Who pays the price?
Through daily Opening Arguments, interviews and full-length discussions, Tony examined the machinery behind the headlines, including presidential power, congressional responsibility, billionaire influence, corporate capture, propaganda and the systems that leave working people locked out of their own government.

The Questions Continue
The Tony Michaels Podcast has ended, but the questions at the center of the work have not.
How should power be held accountable?
What limits does the Constitution place on government?
What dignity is owed to working people?
What responsibilities do citizens carry toward one another?
The format has changed. The work continues through The Coffman Chronicle.
