The first episode aired on April 2, 2024, and featured a debate between Hamas defector Mosab Yousef and two pro-Palestinian college students.[5] On June 7, 2024, McGraw drew criticism for interviewing former U.S. president Donald Trump on the show and agreeing with Trump that his hush money trial was unfair, describing it as "prosecutorial abuse."[6] [7] [8]

Format

Most episodes consist of McGraw talking to guests about their personal issues or general hot-button issues, in front of a live studio audience.[9] [10] In contrast to his previous Dr. Phil show, the program features more of McGraw's personal views on education, family values and immigration, some of which have been described as conservative talking points.[11] [12]
