The MeidasTouch Podcast
Hosted by Ben Meiselas, Brett Meiselas & Jordy Meiselas
Three Long Island brothers — Ben, Brett, and Jordy Meiselas — turned a pandemic iMessage group chat into the progressive media operation that now routinely overtakes Joe Rogan on Podtrac. The format is a trial-lawyer's cross-examination of the news cycle wrapped in brotherly banter: Ben's legal dissection, Brett's Emmy-winning video instincts, Jordy's marketing eye, and a "MeidasMighty" audience that treats every episode like a briefing. It's become the go-to stop for Democratic principals needing to talk to actual voters — Biden, Jeffries, Warren, and Schiff have all sat down with the brothers. In March 2026, the show won Best News Podcast at the iHeartRadio Podcast Awards; in April 2026, Soros Fund Management led an investment round in the network. Recent episodes have torched Trump's handling of the Iran standoff, the collapsing FIFA World Cup boycott, and Melania's Epstein press conference. The MeidasMighty have opinions about who should be in that chair next. This is where those opinions become a signal the brothers can't miss. Vote on the guests you want, shape the questions, rally the rest of the mighty.
