$25,000, a Hidden FBI Sting, and a Killer Who Walked Free | Record Rewind
Today on Greta Wire: - Newly obtained documents reveal that Birmingham FBI agents record Van der Sloot accepting $25,000 during a 2010 extortion sting but enter the operation with no planned arrest. - Van der Sloot leaves Aruba with the money and murders 21-year-old Stephanie Flores in Peru two weeks later. - Former U.S. Attorney Jay Town says investigators fail to bring the necessary criminal complaint, allowing a straightforward wire-fraud and extortion case to collapse. - The FBI and U.S. Attorney’s Office allegedly conceal the operation’s failures from the Holloway family while refusing to accept responsibility for losing Van der Sloot. - Years of pressure ultimately activate a U.S.-Peru treaty and bring Van der Sloot to the United States, but the podcast teases another shocking prosecutorial decision still to be exposed.

Microplastics, Heart Attacks and the Fauci Diaries: What the Evidence Reveals | Record Rewind
Today on Greta Wire: - Dr. Craig Basman examines an Italian study finding microplastics in nearly 84% of 61 heart attack patients, while stressing that the research shows an association rather than definitive causation. - Microplastics may trigger inflammation inside blood vessels, potentially increasing the risk of plaque rupture, heart attacks and strokes. - No validated blood test currently measures a person’s microplastic burden or determines what concentration becomes dangerous. - Anthony Fauci’s released diary entries appear to contradict his public denial that he recommended lockdowns, documenting conversations about closing schools, restaurants and bars. - Admiral Brett Giroir says Fauci’s upcoming Senate testimony should focus on COVID’s origins, gain-of-function research, school closures and whether dangerous work in Wuhan is concealed from the public.

John Fetterman Blasts Mamdani as Rand Paul Exposes the Wuhan Cover-Up | Record Rewind
Today on Greta Wire: - Senator John Fetterman dismisses Zoran Mamdani’s threat to arrest Benjamin Netanyahu as legally meaningless political pandering, arguing that a New York City mayor has no authority to enforce an ICC warrant. - Fetterman supports continued pressure on Iran, backs President Trump’s military response and warns that Tehran remains a destabilizing force across the Middle East. - Fetterman says the Democratic Party is becoming increasingly anti-Israel and challenges lawmakers to confront the footage documenting Hamas’ October 7 atrocities. - Senator Rand Paul reveals that Christopher Wray’s FBI allegedly blocks Customs and Border Protection from questioning Wuhan researcher Peter Daszak and continues resisting congressional subpoenas. - Paul argues that U.S.-funded gain-of-function research in China creates catastrophic risks, accuses scientists of hiding behind semantics and condemns Anthony Fauci’s belief that the scientific knowledge justifies the danger of a pandemic.

Robert Durst Admitted Dismembering a Body. How Did He Walk Free?
Today on Greta Wire: - Dick DeGuerin explains how the defense separates the fatal shooting from Robert Durst’s later decision to dismember and dispose of Morris Black’s body, persuading jurors to focus solely on whether the death occurs during a struggle over a gun. - Durst’s bizarre mistakes, including dumping body parts in shallow water, leaving identifying trash in the bags and returning for a pair of glasses, allow investigators to trace and arrest him. - The conversation revisits Durst’s conviction for Susan Berman’s murder, the disappearance of his wife and DeGuerin’s criticism of a California trial interrupted for 14 months during COVID. - - DeGuerin argues that constitutional protections, evidentiary rules and committed defense lawyers serve as the essential equalizer against the government’s vast prosecutorial resources.

“Out of Power”: James Carville’s Blunt Warning to Democrats
Today on Greta Wire: - James Carville describes the Democratic Party as completely “out of power” and says it will remain without a clear leader until voters select the 2028 presidential nominee. - Carville predicts the 2026 midterms could deliver Democrats anything from a strong year to a “monster year,” pointing to Republican retirements, Donald Trump’s approval numbers, intense Democratic opposition and rising Black voter turnout. - He places primary responsibility for the 2024 election loss on Joe Biden for staying in the race too long and calls Kamala Harris’s failure to separate herself from Biden the worst answer of her campaign. - Looking toward 2028, Carville highlights Mark Kelly, Andy Beshear, Josh Shapiro, J.B. Pritzker, Mitch Landrieu, Rahm Emanuel and Raphael Warnock, while dismissing AOC’s path and sharing stories from his early political career and his first encounters with Bill Clinton.

The Truth About Starting a Business from Scratch
Today on Greta Wire: - PJ Kaminer explains how he and his brother launched Culture Club, a frozen Greek yogurt shop in Nashville, starting from an empty retail shell and building the concept from the ground up. - A major focus is why they chose premium frozen Greek yogurt instead of ice cream or a full restaurant model, aiming for something that feels indulgent, healthier, and more distinctive in the market. - The conversation gets into the real startup grind, from expensive Italian machines and custom recipes to lease risk, staffing issues, inventory mistakes, and the challenge of opening to stronger demand than expected. - Kaminer says social media was a major driver of early traffic, with Instagram, TikTok, and an influencer launch event helping create immediate buzz and long lines without traditional paid advertising. - The episode closes with expansion plans, as PJ reveals a second Nashville location is already opening and frames the business as a family-built brand with room to scale.

Nicole Brown Simpson’s Secret Boyfriend Speaks Out
Today on Greta Wire: - Joseph Perrulli reveals that he was romantically involved with Nicole Brown Simpson after her separation from O.J. Simpson, adding a previously little-known chapter to one of the most infamous murder cases in America. - The episode traces how Perrulli first met Nicole through Kris Jenner, how their relationship deepened, and why he says he was immediately struck by her sadness, vulnerability, and later her transformation after leaving O.J. - Perrulli describes unsettling encounters with O.J. Simpson, including one final face-to-face meeting that left him convinced Nicole would never truly be free of him. - A major focus of the conversation is a long-lost briefcase filled with photos, notes, letters, and memories from Perrulli's time with Nicole, which later became the foundation for his memoir, The Forgotten Briefcase. - The interview ultimately reframes Nicole Brown Simpson not just as a victim in the O.J. Simpson murder case, but as a complex, spiritual, and deeply human woman whose personal story was overshadowed by the trial and media circus.

Greta Wire Shorty: Two Supreme Court Decisions That Could Change America
This episode focuses on two major Supreme Court rulings with national political and cultural consequences. First, Greta speaks with Alan Dershowitz about the Court’s 5-4 decision striking down President Donald Trump’s executive order limiting birthright citizenship for children born to people in the United States illegally or temporarily. Dershowitz argues that while the president likely cannot change that policy by executive order, Congress may still have the power to pass legislation defining who is “subject to the jurisdiction” of the United States under the 14th Amendment. The conversation then broadens into a larger constitutional debate over the Court’s reasoning, the limits of presidential authority, campaign finance, and the growing influence of billionaires and ideological donors in American politics. The second major topic is the Supreme Court’s 6-3 ruling upholding state laws that ban biological men from competing in women’s sports. Greta and Carl Higbie frame the decision as a significant victory for women’s athletics, Title IX protections, and common-sense distinctions based on biological sex. They discuss the cultural and legal battles surrounding transgender participation in sports, the political divide over the issue, and what the ruling could mean for states that still allow biological males to compete against female athletes. Together, the two segments make this episode a sharp, timely look at the Supreme Court’s growing role in shaping immigration policy, constitutional law, and one of the most emotionally charged debates in American sports.

How Greta Got a Man Out of Prison After a 108-Year Sentence
This episode is a deeply personal conversation between Greta Van Susteren and Hilvan Finch, a former client whose life was shaped by trauma, violence, prison, and ultimately redemption. Finch recounts his early years in foster care, the abuse he suffered as a child, and the search for belonging that led him to Washington, D.C., where he became connected to a Muslim family led by Hamas Abdul Khaalis. He describes the 1973 murders of seven members of that family, the psychological damage that followed, and the events that culminated in the 1977 Hanafi hostage takeover in Washington, for which Finch was convicted and sentenced to 36 to 108 years in prison. The interview then turns to the extraordinary legal battle that brought Finch’s case back to life. Greta explains how, as a young lawyer, she took on his post-conviction case and ultimately won his release after years of procedural setbacks and appeals. What makes the episode especially compelling is not only the legal story, but what came after: Finch rebuilt his life, raised a family, and dedicated himself to helping others, including volunteering hundreds of times to drive cancer patients to treatment through the American Cancer Society. The result is a moving story about second chances, justice, loyalty, and the possibility of personal transformation. Today’s podcast is sponsored by : PARAMOUNT PLUS - Don’t Miss "The Agency."

A Father Goes Public After a Devastating Crash and a Shocking Plea Deal
This episode centers on Nicholas Carrozza, whose viral township-meeting confrontation becomes the entry point into a much larger story about a serious car crash, a badly injured mother, a young child in the vehicle, and a justice process he believes has failed his family. He walks through the July 2024 collision in Pennsylvania, describes the condition in which he found his son and the child’s mother at the hospital, and explains why he became convinced that the driver received unusually favorable treatment from local authorities. The conversation carefully traces the events from the crash scene to the investigation, the delayed charges, and the plea deal that Carrozza says did not come close to reflecting the damage done. The interview then shifts into a broader examination of institutions and accountability. Carrozza describes his escalating frustration with township officials, police procedures, and the court process, including his decision to confront local officials publicly after private outreach went nowhere. Greta frames the conversation around a recurring concern in her work: what happens when ordinary people believe the system protects power instead of pursuing fairness. The result is a tense, emotionally charged episode about injury, influence, local government, and one family’s determination to keep pressing for answers.

Todd Chrisley Breaks His Silence on Prison, Family, and Trump’s Pardon
This episode features a wide-ranging conversation with Todd Chrisley about fame, family, prison, and life after a presidential pardon. He explains how his reality TV career began almost by accident, how the family franchise grew into multiple new projects, and why he now sees his next chapter as bigger than television. The discussion moves from the business of entertainment and real estate into the personal cost of prosecution, prison, and public scrutiny, with Chrisley framing his comeback as both a professional rebound and a spiritual reset. A major focus is the justice system. Chrisley describes the flaws he says he saw firsthand inside federal prison, including inconsistent enforcement, unequal treatment, and the human toll of delay and bureaucracy. He also speaks at length about his wife Julie, the moment he learned he had been pardoned, and why prison reform has become central to what he wants to do next. The interview then turns sharply toward Judge Eleanor Ross, with Chrisley accusing her of dishonesty and misconduct and arguing that her handling of the bench reflects a deeper failure inside the federal court system.

What Happens After Rehab? A Family Confronts Addiction’s Hardest Reality
This episode features a deeply personal conversation with Len, a father describing the long and painful impact of drug addiction on his son and on the entire family. He explains how his son’s struggles began in adolescence after serious health problems and depression, then spiraled into years of substance abuse, relapse, homelessness, legal trouble, and unstable recovery. The discussion highlights how addiction does not affect only the person using drugs. It reshapes marriages, drains parents emotionally and financially, strains siblings, and forces families into impossible choices between helping, enabling, and stepping back. The conversation also turns toward policy and solutions, focusing on the gaps that appear after detox and rehab. Len argues that families need better support, including affordable sober-living options, stronger coordination among hospitals, courts, and treatment systems, improved transportation and recovery resources, and more practical tools for people trying to stay clean. The result is both a family story and a broader look at the addiction crisis in America, especially the question many families face every day: how do you save someone you love when love alone is not enough?

Vanilla Ice on Reinvention, Real Estate, and Why He Never Stopped Hustling
In this episode, Vanilla Ice opens up about the unusual mix of talents and disciplines that shaped his career, from breakdancing and poetry to rap stardom, motocross, television, and high-end real estate. He explains how early hustle, self-discipline, and relentless work ethic helped him turn creative ambition into long-term success, first in music and later in property development. Rather than treating fame as the finish line, he describes it as one chapter in a much larger story about building, learning, and staying useful. The conversation also digs into the business side of his reinvention. Vanilla Ice describes how Hurricane Andrew pushed him into home renovation, how he learned to spot undervalued properties, and how design, branding, and customer psychology helped him build a thriving real estate business and television presence. He also talks about performance, patriotism, family, and the energy behind his upcoming Washington event, framing the whole conversation around a bigger idea: lasting success comes from adapting, staying curious, and never losing the drive to create something new.

BONUS: Dr. Jen Ashton on GLP-1 Drugs, Cancer Research, and the Future of Weight Loss Medicine
In this special bonus episode of Greta Wire, taken from Greta Van Susteren’s NEWSMAX show The Record, Greta is joined again by Dr. Jen Ashton for an important update on GLP-1 medications, the class of drugs commonly associated with weight loss treatments such as Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro. Greta opens with a new study from the Cleveland Clinic suggesting that GLP-1 drugs may be linked to reduced tumor growth in patients diagnosed with several obesity-related cancers, including breast, liver, kidney, pancreatic, colorectal, and non-small cell lung cancer. Dr. Ashton explains why the findings are generating excitement, while also stressing that the study was observational and that randomized controlled trials are still needed before drawing firm cause-and-effect conclusions. The conversation expands beyond weight loss into the broader medical possibilities of GLP-1 medications, including potential effects on the immune system, inflammation, cancer progression, recurrence, prevention, and arthritis symptoms. Dr. Ashton also addresses a major real-world barrier: insurance coverage. While doctors can prescribe FDA-approved medications off-label in many circumstances, insurance companies may refuse to cover them unless they are prescribed for approved indications. Greta and Dr. Ashton also discuss the financial logic behind prevention, asking whether insurers may eventually decide it is cheaper to cover these medications earlier rather than pay later for complications tied to obesity, cancer, heart disease, and other serious conditions. This bonus episode serves as a timely update to Dr. Ashton’s previous Greta Wire appearance on GLP-1 medications and why their impact may extend far beyond simple weight loss.

From Prison Cell to Trump Pardon: Rod Blagojevich Unloads
This episode features a long-form interview with former Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich, who argues that his prosecution was an early example of political lawfare and that his case foreshadowed what later happened to Donald Trump. Blagojevich walks through the Obama Senate-seat controversy, the FBI tapes, the trial, and the evidentiary fights that shaped his conviction, insisting that prosecutors took conversations out of context and blocked material that would have shown he was pursuing political deals for public policy goals rather than personal enrichment. The discussion also examines Patrick Fitzgerald, James Comey, prosecutorial power, judicial bias, and the broader question of whether the justice system has become a political weapon. The interview also gets unusually personal, moving from the mechanics of his conviction to the emotional cost of prison, family separation, and public disgrace. Blagojevich describes life behind bars, including his prison band, the people he met inside, and the impact his sentence had on his wife and daughters. He also explains how Donald Trump’s commutation and later pardon reshaped his life and politics, leading him from Democrat to what he calls a “Trumpocrat.” The result is part legal argument, part prison memoir, and part political testimony about corruption, redemption, and survival.

J.K. Rowling’s Untold Story: Solomon Schmidt on Fame, Backlash, and the Fight Over Transgender Politics
This episode features a wide-ranging conversation with young biographer Solomon Schmidt about his new book on J.K. Rowling, tracing her rise from an impoverished single mother to one of the most successful authors in history. Schmidt explains how Rowling built the Harry Potter series from years of planning, personal grief, and creative discipline, and why her life story is compelling even beyond the books themselves. The discussion highlights Rowling’s difficult early years, including the death of her mother, domestic abuse in her first marriage, repeated publishing rejections, and the extraordinary path that turned Harry Potter into a global phenomenon. The interview also focuses on the controversy that has reshaped Rowling’s public image in recent years. Schmidt describes how Rowling, once embraced by the political left, became one of its biggest targets after speaking out against transgender ideology, gender-transition policies, and threats to women’s spaces and women’s sports. He argues that her refusal to back down, combined with her immense cultural influence, made her a uniquely powerful lightning rod in the broader free speech and transgender rights debate. The result is both a literary biography and a portrait of how one of the world’s most famous writers became a central figure in one of today’s fiercest cultural battles. Got a comment or question?
