Ten Minutes of Truth
Barrett & Baxa | 10 Minutes of Truth is where news meets nonsense. Veteran broadcasters and comedians Steve Barrett and Bob Baxa tear apart the headlines, mock media spin, and highlight the absurdity of our cultural circus. Each week they tackle everything from politics and pop culture to bloopers, pet peeves, and “news” stories you’ll never see on the networks. With a mix of sharp commentary, gallows humor, and ridiculous tangents, the show captures the slow, strange death of traditional media in real time. No topic is too serious (or too stupid) to roast. If you like your commentary unfiltered, irreverent, and occasionally unhinged, you’re a PWLTOP now (a Person Who Listens To Our Podcast). Subscribe today and join the chosen few who laugh at the collapse of legacy media.

Nancy Pelosi loses her cool, Trump arm wrestles Macron, and the “rapid response choir” has us singing the same tune. Barrett & Baxa break down the week’s most bizarre political theater — from handshake dominance to full-blown meltdowns — and reveal why “shut up” might be the quote of the week.
Real stories, raw takes, and the slow, strange death of traditional media.

Why can’t ICE agents cover their faces when everyone else can? This episode dives into the myths, media spin, and outright lies surrounding ICE arrests — from the viral “zip-tied kids” hoax to the Snopes fact-check that refused to call it false. Barrett and Baxa cut through the confusion with the law itself, real-world examples, and a few analogies that make the border debate impossible to ignore.

Crime? What Crime? Misdemeanor Madness and Legal Denial | Ten Minutes of Truth EP 49
When America’s TV hosts and politicians can’t tell the difference between a crime and a “misdemeanor,” Barrett & Baxa bring out the dictionary — and the receipts. From Don Lemon’s legal confusion to Rep. Jasmine Crockett’s word salad and the Seattle mayor’s excuse factory, this episode cuts through the media fog to remind everyone: words matter, laws matter, and stupidity is not a defense.

Katie Porter melts down on camera, berating her staff and flubbing a basic voter question — while in Virginia, Democrat candidate Jay Jones gets caught sending vile text messages fantasizing about murdering political opponents and the death of their children.
Barrett and Baxa break down both meltdowns and show how the media once again bends over backward to shield Democrats.
From “Republicans pounce” headlines to selective outrage, this episode exposes how bias still infects political journalism in 2025 — even when the evidence is black and white.

A WGN employee is accused of hurling objects at ICE agents — and then hilariously throws her employer under the bus mid-arrest.
Barrett & Baxa break down the viral clip, the fake headlines, and how the media twisted the story to fit its “journalists under attack” narrative. From the “violent misgendering” moment to the broader Antifa denial, this episode exposes the absurdity and dishonesty in modern news coverage — one headline at a time.

Elon Musk has called out Netflix for promoting trans and other gender content in children’s programming — and the backlash has been swift. Barrett and Baxa break down how “consequence culture” is coming for the streaming giant, why parents are fighting to protect childhood innocence, and how mainstream media continues to blur the lines between inclusion and exploitation.
From the Virginia locker room scandal involving a registered sex offender to Senator Josh Hawley’s viral “Two-Spirit” hearing, this episode connects the dots between policy, parenting, and cultural sanity.
Bottom line: It’s not “cancel culture” — it’s consequence culture. And the consequences seem to be coming for companies that forget who their audience really is.

A sombrero, a meme, and a full-blown meltdown. This episode of 10 Minutes of Truth dives into how a lighthearted social media joke about Hakeem Jeffries sparked outrage among Democrats and the mainstream media—complete with cries of “racism,” “filth,” and “depravity.”
Steve and Bob unpack the absurdity of political hypersensitivity, the death of humor, and why satire is now considered a hate crime by the woke left. From Megan Kelly’s coverage to a Rodney Dangerfield AI cameo, to Kamala Harris as “Nacho President,” this episode proves comedy isn’t dead—it’s just moved online.

Washington is once again "shut down"—but does it even matter? Barrett and Baxa break down the government shutdown circus, the media’s overblown coverage, and why most Americans don’t even notice when D.C. hits pause.
From AOC’s selfied “good deed” tour to the absurdity of 10 park rangers needed to close an open-air memorial, this episode exposes how political theater and media manipulation go hand in hand. Plus: a look back at the Clinton-Lewinsky “shutdown special,” the ongoing trust collapse in mainstream media, and the Democrats’ awkward attempt at a 24-hour livestream flop.

In this episode, Barrett and Baxa break down the escalating ICE raids stretching from Chicago to Portland to Iowa, exposing how mainstream media frames the story.
From Operation Midway Blitz in Chicago to a Dallas shooting quickly ignored by the press, the hosts reveal how headlines distort reality and downplay violence against ICE. They also highlight misleading narratives about detained immigrants, including the case of a 5-year-old girl in Massachusetts, and tackle the controversy of journalists getting too close to the action.
With sharp analysis and unapologetic commentary, this episode unmasks the bias and selective outrage driving the immigration debate.

In this episode of 10 Minutes of Truth with Barrett and Baxa, the spotlight is on the indictment of former FBI Director James Comey for allegedly lying to Congress.
Steve and Bob break down the hypocrisy in media and political reactions—contrasting how Democrats celebrated Trump-era indictments as “rule of law,” but now call Comey’s indictment an abuse of power. The discussion pulls in examples from Joe Scarborough’s past warnings, Andrew Weissmann’s double standard, and the long-running issue of political lawfare. It’s a sharp, fast-paced dive into media bias, hypocrisy, and the dangerous cycle of retribution in American politics.
