An in-depth discussion about why many Americans find using violence to solve political and societal issues justified.   

It's been reported that the United States is seeing a sustained surge of political violence, including physical violence and vandalism against political leaders, federal judges, public officials, and those with an opposing ideology. But what may be most surprising is that many Americans find using violence to solve political and societal issues understandable and justified. In fact, Dr. Phil will speak with, Daisy, who is someone who claims not only can political violence sometimes be necessary for change, it can also be a logical response when people feel powerless. Dr. Phil will also speak with Paige, a young student who claims the alleged assault she endured at the hands of another student on her college campus was politically motivated. Plus, Dr. Phil will speak Kathy, a 70-year-old woman, who says her life changed forever when she claims a teenage boy physically attacked her while at a peaceful demonstration last year. Find out why Kathy says that alleged physical attack has kept her from participating in any type of activism.

Bestselling author and journalist Douglas Murray joins Dr. Phil for a fearless deep dive into the ideological battles defining today’s geopolitical crises. From Hamas' invasion on October 7th to the rise of anti-Israel sentiment in Western institutions, Murray dismantles the narratives fueling the global debate. How does legacy media shape public perception? Why are Hollywood and Jewish leaders hesitant to speak out? And what does Gaza’s military infrastructure reveal about Hamas’ strategy? This conversation isn’t just about the Middle East—it’s about the crisis facing Western democracies, the erosion of resilience, and the fight for heroism in an age of indoctrination. This episode challenges the narratives shaping today's conflicts—will you rethink what you've been told?”

Trump renamed the Gulf of Mexico. The left lost its mind. But when they rename military bases, sports teams, and pancake syrup — it's called “justice.”

Dr. Phil breaks down the absurd double standard: why it’s OK to erase Aunt Jemima or Fort Bragg, but offensive to rename a body of water. From “birthing people” to “The Chicks,” this isn’t about names — it’s about power. Who gets to define reality... and who gets canceled for even asking?

America’s identity is being rewritten. Let’s talk about who’s holding the pen.

Cruises used to be luxury getaways. Now? They’re making headlines for alcohol-fueled fights, viral brawls, and lifetime bans. Dr. Phil dives into disturbing new trends: violence at sea, alcohol overload, and the breakdown of public behavior—from the high seas to 30,000 feet in the air.

Is this about cruise ships—or something deeper happening in our culture? This is The Real Story.
