International Flavor: Where the Truth Tastes Better
International Flavor: Where the Truth Just Tastes Better
International Flavor is a live, no-nonsense morning broadcast that takes you well outside the comfortable lies of Western mainstream media. Airing Monday through Friday from 7:30 to 9:00 a.m. (Central) on damradio.com/live, the show is then archived as a podcast at internationalflavor.com for listeners who want to rewind, re-listen, or share what they probably won’t hear anywhere else.
This is an international affairs and civil liberties show with teeth. We dig into wars, sanctions, regime-change games, color revolutions, BRICS, de-dollarization, energy politics, and trade disputes — always asking who actually benefits and who gets crushed. You’ll hear Russia’s side of the story in clear English, along with perspectives from China, the Global South, and dissident Western voices that polite TV panels pretend don’t exist. If you’re looking for a “Putin is evil, Washington means well” bedtime story, this is not your program.
At home, International Flavor turns the same harsh light on the American legal and political system: state bar politics, judicial “selection” commissions, agency overreach, back-room regulatory enforcement, Sunshine Law stonewalling, and the quiet ways people’s rights, businesses, and reputations get destroyed while everyone is told it’s “just procedure.” From Missouri’s bar and ATC battles to federal surveillance and speech restrictions, the show pulls case files, statutes, and real stories together and says out loud what most lawyers only say off the record.
It isn’t all geopolitics and courtroom trench warfare. International Flavor also looks at real estate, money, and everyday survival — from Florida and Missouri markets to international property and migration — and how politics, sanctions, and war ripple straight into your mortgage, your grocery bill, and your retirement. On other days, the program dives into language, film, music, and culture, often unpacking Russian-language interviews, songs, and movies, explaining the subtext Western coverage never bothers to translate.
Hosted in a direct, sometimes sharp tone, International Flavor doesn’t pretend to be “neutral.” It tests Western narratives against inconvenient facts, brings in sources that are usually filtered or banned, and lets listeners decide for themselves. No scripted talking points, no fake balance — just a consistent rule: if a story affects power, war, freedom, or money, we follow it until the mask slips.
If you’re tired of being talked down to, and you’re ready to hear the things you’re not supposed to hear — from Moscow to Miami, from courtrooms to conflict zones — International Flavor: Where the Truth Just Tastes Better is your morning habit.

From Belarus we tune into the “big game” up in Alaska, where the real varsity jocks — Trump, Putin, and Lavrov — run the plays while Europe waves pompoms from the sidelines. And there’s Z-Man, the hapless team mascot in his blue-and-yellow jester cap, prancing around for the cameras while the scoreboard keeps climbing against him. The EU looks like the marching band trying to drown out reality, but from the bleachers it’s obvious: this isn’t strategy, it’s high school theater dressed up as global politics.

In this episode of International Flavor: Where the Truth Just Tastes Better, Samuel Trapp dives into the historic Trump–Putin summit in Alaska, unpacking why Trump’s decision to let Putin speak first may be one of the sharpest diplomatic moves of his career. We explore the symbolism of Alaska, the Kremlin’s romantic view of history, and how America’s fast-food politics often clash with Russia’s deeper sense of legacy.
From Russophobia on the streets of North Port, Istanbul, and even Lithuania, to the silencing of dissenting voices on platforms like YouTube, we examine how fear of Russia has become a destructive cultural reflex. But perhaps this summit signals a turning point: an opportunity to move beyond hatred and toward pragmatic peace in Ukraine and renewed dialogue between two great powers.
Is the world finally ready to step past Russophobia and imagine a different future? Tune in and decide for yourself.

Tonight’s International Flavor serves up a piping-hot dish of geopolitical absurdity, featuring the Trump–Putin Alaska summit that promises everything and will probably deliver a photo op. Between Ukrainian drone strikes, Hungary’s oil tantrums, Germany’s missile funding, and BRICS telling Washington to go pound sand, the stage is set for a peace process where no one actually wants peace. Samuel Trapp cuts through the PR fog, skewers the hypocrisy on all sides, and wonders if anyone in this circus remembers what “winning” even means. Spoiler: reality doesn’t care.

In this provocative episode of International Flavor: Where the Truth Just Tastes Better, Samuel Trapp takes listeners on a globe-spanning journey through the clash between personal freedoms, cultural norms, and government control. From bawdy nights in 1980s Las Vegas to the red-light windows of Amsterdam, from brothels in Nevada to strip clubs in Missouri, Samuel unpacks how societies regulate — and often overreach — when it comes to adult entertainment, free speech, and moral policing.
Along the way, he dives deep into the legal battleground surrounding Missouri’s strip clubs, examining First Amendment protections, zoning laws, and a new lawsuit that could change the rules for sexually oriented businesses statewide. With his trademark mix of sharp legal insight, world travel stories, and unapologetic opinion, Samuel also weighs in on global flashpoints — from Poland’s reckoning with Nazi collaborators to Ukraine’s draft restrictions, India’s Himalayan disaster, and Senator Lindsey Graham’s latest saber-rattling over Israel.
Whether you agree or disagree, tonight’s show will make you think twice about who really controls “freedom” — and why defending it sometimes means defending what you personally dislike.

As the “Z-Man” clings to a crumbling front and the old Trumpster zig-zags his way toward a face-to-face with Putin in Alaska, the stakes couldn’t be higher—or stranger. Is this the dawn of a pragmatic thaw, or just another geopolitical photo-op doomed to melt? We dig into collapsing Ukrainian lines, backroom land swap whispers, and the frantic scramble by Europe’s hawks to sabotage talks before they begin. With the battlefield shifting fast and corruption oozing from every corner of Kyiv, could normalization with Russia—however messy—actually be in sight? On International Flavor, we serve the truth without the Western propaganda glaze.

Tonight’s episode dissected the upcoming Trump-Putin summit in Alaska, where Zelensky is notably excluded from initial talks. Samuel analyzed shifting U.S. positions, possible land-swap deals, and Lavrov’s critique of Western dominance in the wake of the Helsinki Accords’ 50th anniversary. The show also covered allegations of Ukrainian tactics targeting elderly Russians, and Israel’s killing of Al Jazeera journalists in Gaza, raising press freedom concerns. With insights on India’s role, BRICS dynamics, and ongoing battlefield realities, the discussion explored the fragile, fast-changing landscape of global power politics.

From the trenches of Pokrovsk to the gilded halls where Trump and Putin circle each other, tonight’s International Flavor slices through the headlines with a sharp tongue and sharper wit.

Add in a Gallup shocker from Ukraine, Lavrov’s nostalgia for the Helsinki days, and a sneak peek at Sunday’s Scott Ritter deep dive. The truth just tastes better here.
