Despite the optics that suggest otherwise." – Eugene S. Robinson 21.06.2026 On Father’s Day, Eugene S. Robinson uses Version 420 to think through fathers, stewardship, responsibility, abandonment, and the people who are supposed to take care of what they helped build. From there, the show turns hard toward Dana White and the UFC, arguing that what was once a vibrant combat sport has been hollowed out by spectacle, politics, fighter exploitation, trash promotion, and a total failure of stewardship. Eddie Goldman may have been right all along, and Eugene is not especially happy to admit it.

Three clips from V.419 of The Eugene S. Robinson Show Stomper: why The Ooof-C's (UFC) Freedom 250 looks like an absolute logistical and political minefield; the UFC’s long trail of ugly choices and whether abuse is not a bug but a feature; and the story of a brilliant friend who found life’s big red button - and pressed it.

If you say something you might remove all doubt. Which I stole." – Eugene S. Robinson 14.06.2026 Version 419 of The Show Stomper starts with Bari Weiss, wunderkinds, old publishing grudges, and the jobs Eugene had to fight for, then dives headfirst into Oof-C Freedom 250 at the White House, the allegations surrounding Poatan, MMA media failure, The Bald One’s long history of looking the other way, and what happens when the real press finally starts paying attention. From there it swerves into CREEM’s Airing of Grievances, the irresistible urge to push the big red button, sciatica and spinal surgery, Kora’s first trophy, secret weapons, Patriot safes, finally making peace with the end of OXBOW, new music, including Leisure High with Blevin Blectum, and one last detour through Taboo and vintage porn.
