Hosted by Mnar Muhawesh, MintCast is the flagship audio project from MintPress News, offering a platform for perspectives often pushed to the margins of mainstream conversation. This isn't about rehearsed political talking points; instead, each episode sits down with independent journalists, researchers, and thinkers whose analyses challenge conventional narratives.

The conversations are built on a foundation of dissenting thought, providing context and depth that goes far beyond headlines. Tune into this podcast for a substantive and critical examination of power, presented through voices that prioritize evidence and accountability over access and affiliation. It’s a resource for anyone seeking to understand the forces at play behind the news cycle, delivered through long-form interviews that value complexity over simplicity.
