The Eugene S. Robinson Show Stomper!

Who Benefits? The V.421 Reel Roundup

V.421 keeps circling the question Eugene won’t let go of: who benefits? This week’s reel roundup pulls together three sharp cuts from the paid episode, moving from Nate Bargatze’s UFC appearance to Ari Emanuel, Endeavor, TKO, celebrity positioning, and the machinery behind the spectacle. The free preview [https://youtu.be/OT_mdeyKvsE] set the table, but these clips get into the real argument: when famous people take public turns toward power, access, and consequence, somebody is always benefiting.

WithOUT us signing off on it?" – Eugene S. Robinson 28.06.2026 V.421 finds Eugene circling one deceptively simple question: who benefits? From Nate Bargatze’s UFC-side photo op to 50 Cent chasing access, Fallon yukking it up with a convicted anal rapist, Ari Emanuel’s machinery humming in the background, and the looming weirdness of what Eugene keeps calling Nuremburg November™ (take a drink); this week’s Show Stomper is less about any single bad choice than the pattern underneath them. Are these public figures true believers, cynical opportunists, useful idiots, or just people stepping into history with their eyes wide shut?The first 20mins are free, the show runs an hour or so... In the full episode, this week Eugene follows the thread from public celebrity choices into the machinery behind them: Ari Emanuel, Endeavor, UFC, TKO, access, consequence, and the eternal question of who benefits. ______________ Support the Show 💰 PayPal: pinko95014@yahoo.com 💰 CashApp: eugene-robinson-28 💰 Venmo: PlanetOxbow 💰 Zelle: OX_bow@hotmail.com Subscribe 👉 ShowStomper.substack.com (The Show) 👉 EugeneSRobinson.substack.com (The Newsletter) Follow Eugene 📱 TikTok 🎵: @The.ShowStomper 📷 Instagram: @MrSleep3 🐦 Twitter: @EugeneSRobinson 📘 fb: stompville More Content?

Failed UFC Stewardship / No More Fight Politics / UFC Is The Red-Light District of Sports | The Show Stomper – V.420 Reel Roundup

Three clips from V.420 of The Eugene S. Robinson Show Stomper: why Dana White’s failure of stewardship helped turn the Oof-C (UFC) into something harder to defend; why Eugene just wants the fights without the politics, weigh-in shoving, family insults, and promotional trash; and why the UFC may now be closer to the red-light district of sports than a serious fight league.

V.420: The Murder Most Foul Edition. On Father's Day No Less! On The Eugene S. Robinson Show Stomper!

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit showstomper.substack.com [https://showstomper.substack.com?utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=CTA_7] "Never has such a sure-handed steward screwed things up so badly. 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.

UFC Minefields, Built-In Abuse & the Big Red Button | The Show Stomper – V.419 Reel Roundup @MMA

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.
