Hey Meidas Mighty!
Many of you have requested to get to know more about our co-founders at the MeidasTouch Network. MeidasTouch host Dina Doll had the great idea of interviewing Ben Meiselas in a segment she calls “Interviewing the Interviewer.”
In this interview with Meidas co-founder Ben Meiselas, Dina asks many of the questions you've been curious about. Take a watch and let us know if you have questions you'd like Ben to answer in their next interview.
As a quick reminder, we have a subscriber goal of 500 new subscribers today, so please subscribe if you can.
Since it's Black History month maybe Stacey Abrams, Jasmin Crocket, Cory Booker, Rev. Warnock etc. would give you an interview. They are fighting the good fight in Congress still and all of them are courageous people.
These ar terrific suggestions!
Thanks for taking the words out of my mouth. Great suggestion!
I fell in love with the Meiselas brothers when I was looking for like minded people and got so much more than I expected, now I’m hooked 🤷🏻♀️
they are awesome people. informative, and engaging as well. 🩵❤️
DITTO❣️👏🙏
Ben’s awesome 💙! Ben and his bros too! I’m a huge fan!!!!
Yes, I knew! Lol.. I've been following since 2020 when you guys had like 50k subscribers. Then quickly thereafter I Googled the brothers. 🤭 because I wanted to know what was their backgrounds. That's when I find out Ben is a lawyer and Jordy is a marketer. And Brett a editor. An award winning editor! He also worked at the Ellen Degeneres show. These brothers have talent, smarts, and class!!
I’m proud to be on the side of truth.
I am as well.. we here are on the side of truth and facts.
Also... Just a trivia fact MLK and Ann Frank were born the same year.
What a great interview. I was reading some of the other comments, and I liked the idea one commenter had about Meidas having a Black History month.
Truth and Integrity wins every time!
The more you learn about Ben ( & his brothers), the more you realise what decent people they are and how much they care about other people and their country.
The fact that they now have followers from all over the world speaks volumes on not only their sincerity but, also on the image of "their" America, the America they aspire for it to be for the rest of the world.
As ambassadors for THAT America they should be applauded. Their embarrassment for the present America is more than tangible. In that embarrassment the world has empathy. Of that, I'm sure. The present image of America is NOT the image of America the world wants to see. The present image is tarnished.
Part of me wants to leave this country, but a big part of me is ashamed to go abroad and admit that I’m an American.
Thank you for your attention to this needed area. That’s what led me to subscribe to Meidas. I no longer watch any TV network.
Ditto🙏
Yes, Meidas Mighty, Legal AF don’t give you miss information they fact check everything before they release any info.
So thankful to be part of this amazing community 💜 Love all the podcasters and the content is always in the present and ProDemocracy! Keep it up… all of you professionals!
Tim and Kamala would be another idea for interview, seperate or together. We would like to see them on your show to thank them and hopefully lift their spirits a bit. We have not forgotten their effort and are deeply sad that they're not in office.
Thank you for this interesting interview. It was great to hear the Meidas Touch backstory. Keep up the good work--all of us in the Meidas Mighty network depend on your insight, courage, and wisdom.
Refreshing to have the truth be told regarding what is going on in our country. Bravo boys. 👏Proud to say you grew up in my home town. I’m a huge fan. Grateful for your hard work.
Keep up the great work fighting for us all.
That interview was so good and I loved that it really ticked off Trump.
Love this! Another huge fan!
You deserve an award for that interview. It was beautifully done, just like Heather Cox Richardson had with Biden earlier in his presidency.
Thank you for this. I’ve often wondered about how meidas was started. Tell us more about Ben and brothers, Dina and others
What a great idea, more interviews with Brett, Jordy, Michael P, Dina...so many fabulous people to list but not too many to watch! This just pulled me out of a funk and I WILL stay here! Just keep swimming... Dory from Finding Nemo 😁❣️
I’m honored and grateful to be part of the Meidas Mighty community. I’m not as big a fish as others are, but am still here listening and restacking every day. My son and I are living in a homeless shelter and if I didn’t have you, MeidasTouch and the Meidas Mighty, I wouldn’t have the courage or the patience to keep going. Thank you, Ben, Brett, Jordy and this beautiful community for allowing me to be part of this wonderful family. God bless all of you. And thank you, Ben for allowing us in and sharing yourself with us. Y’all are truly amazingly talented and such professionals. I’m a proud Meidas Mighty supporter! 🫶
🤗 🤗🤗❣️
This interview was enlightening as I knew Ben was an educated, driven man who was on our team. My goal in life has always been to somehow be a part of Peace throughout the world. Any little thing I can add to that goal would please me very much. I respect you Ben and your 2 brothers for what you do. I’m proud to be a Midas Touch supporter 😊
Thank you for doing this interview with Dina.
We are so fortunate to have such dynamic and dedicated workers on the side of right and decency. We're with you all the way, Ben and company.
Please get Jim Acosta in for an interview.
You did a great interview with President Biden!
Thank you for this wonderful interview, Dina. Thank you, Ben, for being on the receiving end of the questions. I love you Brothers for all you do💙💙💙
In very proud of you and your team, Ben! ❤️
For Black History Month maybe Colin could come talk..
The one thing that tRump and his oligarch propaganda pushers are afraid of is a United pro Democracy community and there are many great pro Democracy creators working hard going in many directions with a common goal to expose this illegitimate administration destroying this country and trying to suppress the ppl. MTN is IMO leading the pack and I believe if we keep working together many influencial ppl will get on board too. The Dems have to just get down and nasty bc that's what we are against. Against the nastiest immoral human beings on earth. 🇺🇲🗽⚖️💙💜🙏🩷❤️🤎🖤💚🩵🤍🙏
Good imogis
AGREED
Great interview! Thank you! 💙
Yes, we are proud of you, and what you've done, Ben
Thanks Ben ❤️
I would love for you to interview Canadian Liberal hopeful Mark Carney 🙏 Donvict the Rapist Felon is afraid of this good man . I also think having people of color,trans people etc. on your platform because some people really have no contact with minorities and are unjustly afraid of the unknown. Absolutely love your network Ben and brothers. It's nice to have integrity in news again.🙏Your interview with President Biden is one of my absolute favorites and I constantly recommend people who say Pres Biden was demented,to watch for an informed opinion. Love from Canada🇨🇦
Great interview!
Please bring to more people's attention Greg Palast's findings. I love the Meidas Mighty. Keep up the good work and keep telling the truth.
Ben and bros kill it every day. + Popock and Agnifilo. My main source of news 🤟😎
The puppy is auguration was awesome! When are you doing the next one? You could call it " The Puppy Press Conferences"
Very Impressive Brothers! I feel like they’re my brothers!
Being relatively new to Meidas, I am thrilled my wife pointed me in this direction! I have been looking for an honest, trustworthy, capable, knowledgeable alternative to corporate, legacy media, which have led so many down a dark path of oligarchy, authoritarianism, and kleptocracy. Thank you!
Fantastic interview! What a great idea! Thanks for sharing yourself with us, Ben, and thanks Dina for doing the interview!!
We the people need to stand up to the orange fool
I told someone one today who worked in the insurance today about MTN and Legal AF. We talked a long time and she said she is going to check it out!
Please see if you can get FOX, OAN OR NEWSMAX to interview you? The maga folks are kept in the dark, lied to and completely misled by these media groups.
Ohhh, that's something. If blocked from Whitehouse, I wonder if any of them would take it on? I would guess not because they aren't doing real reporting & have a forgone script, but I think that's an interesting idea. How to cross over those info silos?
bad timing. please update us on Musk breaking into government agencies with his goons.
Thank you. Great interview.
Dear Ben,
"Did you ever know that you're my hero
And everything I would like to be?
I can fly higher than an eagle
For you are the wind beneath my wings."
This is great! Love you all and I think it’s awesome I can come here for the TRUTH ✌️
This is so wonderful to know about how MTN was formed and what your values are. This is really great and helps inform me as supporting your channel and other s
This interview is awesome, and will be sharing it! Thank you Dina Doll for interviewing Ben! The Meidas Touch Network truly is the Gold standard for news! Thank you Ben, Brett and Jordy too and all the other MTN contributors!
I think we should have a 10 million person march to the White House. Thank You for what you do. I'm so glad your house and your brother's survived. I loved your interview with Biden was historic.
SO needed & necessary, we have been in real danger of losing all memory of the greats, leading with principles & solid values. We are very lucky to have these strong voices bringing all their considerable strengths. Thank you for this great context!
More of these Dina.
TO BEN MEISELAS:
"There's a hero
If you look inside your heart
You don't have to be afraid
Of what you are
There's an answer
If you reach into your soul
And the sorrow that you know
Will melt away
And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you
Lord knows
Dreams are hard to follow
But don't let anyone
Tear them away,
Hold on
There will be tomorrow
In time you'll find the way
And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you"
Sir Winston Churchill's...NEVER SURRENDER...spirit and conviction is alive.
Ben and his brothers are fearless leaders.
Their alligence to truth, democracy and freedom is rock solid.
It would be a lot easier to read
Medas Touch if you didn’t promote yourself so much
Knowing who they are as humans and Americans, lets people trust their reporting as truthful and in the best interest of all Americans 💙🇺🇲💙🇺🇲💙🇺🇲
David.....are you serious?!?!
I had to read that 3 times! What is he talking about? Maybe it's the commercials??
I don't know what David is talking about, Donna. I hope he tells us.
David, we would have been further at this point if we had been told more what people were doing, who they are, & what they stand for. If there's one thing we've learned with the last election, it isn't enough to be quietly doing your job, there has to be clear communication of that as well. Our country has been taken over by those driven by select agenda, but just as much, because they are LOUD. It continues to be most important to be doing the serious work, but there has needed to be a change in making sure people know what is going on.
💯 YES, thank you!
Really? Wow. I don't see that during their show. The commercials can be annoying 😑
Be a subscriber and lose the commercials
Let us all celebrate Black History month here on this network and all over social media. We don't need anyone's permission to do that.
When you do work that is meaningful to you, and you are passionate about what you do, why you are doing it, and when you have actual facts and data to back it up, it doesn't FEEL like work! THAT is THE most rewarding work that ANYONE can do! The Mighty Meidas Community ALL have principles and values and are thirsty for ACTUAL FACTS and DATA and TRUTH, which MSM nowadays is sadly lacking! I too have hopes for they day when the Meidas Touch Network isn't necessary, but sadly, I believe that will be in the distant future, and until then, we KNOW we havew somewhere to turn to get the truth, and no gaslighting! (Sending EXTRA love and strength to to all from Australia! We're STILL with you in Spirit! Please stay strong, keep up the good fight, and stay safe if you can! THIS is a Global fight for Democracy! I hope and pray that if Australia ever faces what you're facing, that we recognise and stop it, BEFORE it gets to this point!)
Ben, you are such a beautiful spirit. I'm a 75-year-old white woman, been an activist since the late 60's, and have struggled with this cruel and crazy world for decades. Trump has been the most difficult to get through and I just have to tell you that you and many of the folks on Substack literally get me through each day and night. I honestly don't know what I would do to understand every day what is going on if it weren't for you and the Meidas Mighty and Substack. This is a such a good interview and I'm happy to know more about you. And I'm not surprised that Jordy came up with the "Meidas Mighty". He's such a joy. Thank you from the top and bottom of my heart. I am a dedicated Substack member. Also the Puppy and Kitten Inauguration was brilliant.
I love the theme song
Get Marjorie toliet green on and debate her and call her out on her games.
Sorry for the typo it was the Puppy Inauguration.
Thank You HOPE & COURAGE ABOUNDS!!!! LoTS of SHAME ON CORPORATIONS and Traditionsl Media and COWARD and SPINELESS GOP ENABLERS and THOSE that can't tell TRUTH From LIES nd Who Voted for this Absolute Abhorrent poor excuse of a so called Man
And there’s also AOC
The truth shall set you free. Keep strong. keep going. GOD bless.
Great interview, Ben! Thank you and the entire MTN for all you do each & every day. I feel better informed, included & some days, a little calmer. 💙
Thank you for all your hard work and dedication.
Jasmine Crockett please

It seems like the Meiselas men were were perfectly “built” to create the perfect voice for the people. In a time where it’s difficult to trust anyone, it’s wonderful to have a network where truth is the foundation. Not just truth, but morals, decency and well thought out reporting. Enough hype, memes and garbage. History will see America in a bad light over all this. Meidas+ will be seen as crucial to the turn away from insanity. Thank you!!
Do you have a swag store? I would like a MTN baseball cap.
If you slug-line one with "Eat the Rich" I would buy one for each family member!
I'd like to see interviews with some Senate Republicans, to see what THEIR answers would be to the hard questions... such as their Oath to the Constitution and the Rule of Law, rather than an Oath to a Man-Baby, Malignant Narcissist with delusions of grandeur! (ESPECIALLY over these INSANE nominations for Trump's Cabinet, and their 'kissing the ring' in approvals for these nominations, eg. Pete Hegseth, Kash Patel, RFK Jr and Tulsi Gabbard... as well as the architect of Project 2025... Russell Vought! Also.... the co-president, Elon Musk!)
So much appreciation for your courage and truth! It can feel dark, especially here in Oklahoma, and yours is the voice of sanity!
'There is room for you at our table, if you wish to join us ' -Starhawk
Tell your mother I said thanks!
Your mother deserves a huge thanks for teaching her sons family values, respect, and all the bestiful things you men are. Thank you Mom
Micheal Popock said he take the microphone 🎤 and put the show in his van.
What about Eric Holder, Maxwell Frost and David Hogg as guests.
It's a kind of Magic it's a kind of Magic a kind of Magic XxXxX

💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
Ben is the definition of American patriot. He’s a hero. We need to support him and Meidas!
💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
Don’t get burnt out Ben you do have a full plate. Thank you for fighting for our Democracy!
Dina! You are a founding member!☮💙
It's so refreshing to know persons like yourselves who have values , morals and integrity that our society has lost. The Lord will bless you richly. Perhaps one day we will have politicians who share these qualities as our leaders. With technology increasing and humanity decreasing that may be a long shot.
Out of the chaos in which we are submerged, perhaps we will have learned valuable lessons and we can rebuild our Nation so that we can be proud to be an American once more once.
May the Lord continue blessing and protecting you and your family as well as your collaborators. GOD BLESS.
This blessings is also extensive to the doggie family as well. Be Safe.
America is grateful. Thank you.
Congratulations and the best of luck fighting such a very large bunch of criminals Ben and group. Dina Doll is such a beautiful name for a brilliant successful woman!
So glad I watched this. Please don't change--except to get even better!
Love this 3 beautiful souls.
I have always been attracted to the truth. That's why I have been watching you pretty much from the beginning. Your channel services with integrity, compassion, empathy & Brotherhood.
Not just family by blood, but all of us! I stand with Canada, Mexico, Ukraine, Greenland & Panama. I am a US citizen but feel like our democracy is being chiseled away! After reading MTN about how Canada is already preparing for tariffs & hard times I decided to do the same. I will not purchase anything with a tariff. I don't know why we are being told to suffer. There is enough for everyone! Expect we al! watched the front row at the innaurguration filled with billionaires. Money & power! We can't even put all the blame on Trump! He has a whole cult blindly following him!
I think the reason why Donald Trump closed those portals it's so he can embezzle the money somehow
A special thank you to Dina for this interview. The values that Meidas Touch Network represent are what brought me here as a viewer. The consistency with which they are upheld is what moved me to become a subscriber and one of the Meidas Mighty.
I really believe that the Lord has His had on these networks.
I really enjoyed this look into the beginnings and creation of this great network. I love all your content and all your contributors. The only problem I have is there aren't enough hours in my day to listen to it all. I have to pick and choose which is hard because it's all so informative. Keep her lit 🔥
Aloha DJ Ben😁,Brett,Jordy,Ron , everyone @ MTN and a big shout out to everyone in the MeidasMighty👋👋
You are the true depiction of INSPIRATION, INTEGRITY,HONESTY and HUMAN DECENCY!🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷
You guys inspired us to have a voice within the substack and beyond!!
BTW....loved the fact that you represented Colin K.(49ers) big fan of his back then!!
Everyone... LET'S KEEP GIVING WMD HELL!!!

One of the questions that I hoped for was how popoc and others came on board.
It Couldn’t Be Done
BY EDGAR ALBERT GUEST
Somebody said that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!
Somebody scoffed: “Oh, you’ll never do that;
At least no one ever has done it;”
But he took off his coat and he took off his hat
And the first thing we knew he’d begun it.
With a lift of his chin and a bit of a grin,
Without any doubting or quiddit,
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it.
There are thousands to tell you it cannot be done,
There are thousands to prophesy failure,
There are thousands to point out to you one by one,
The dangers that wait to assail you.
But just buckle in with a bit of a grin,
Just take off your coat and go to it;
Just start in to sing as you tackle the thing
That “cannot be done,” and you’ll do it.
Samuel Jackson would be a good guest
Jasmine C. Now, that's a good guest to put on list.
I am grateful for you and your brothers having the integrity and tenacity to fight for our democracy. For me, it helps keep my sanity. Honestly! Thank you very much!!!!
So very proud of you and your team! Keep giving us the best content of pro democracy news as we support you. Thank you for bringing us through the dark days by sharing your expertise and truth and leading us forward to hope. I appreciate you and ALL of you at MTN!💙😍💯🇺🇸🤩🩵
Ben you and your brothers have a lot to be proud of. I look forward to seeing and hearing the latest of the madness going on. It also gives us a place to express our voice with you. I'm just happy to have come across MTN about a year ago and I wish it had been sooner. I trust what you have to say.
Thx so much for what you do. Facts and integrity matter.
Thanks for this great interview. You’re saving Democracy!!!
Please interview Colin Kaepernick.
Remember the so-called “MAGA civil war”?
it was a fake. No Steve Bannon and Laura Loomer even remember this “conflict” with Musk.
Can not imagine life today during felon 47 & his manipulator enablers' reign without MTN community! 🇺🇸❤️🤍💙 Thank you all!
Watch "Divorced bc of medical expenses" on YouTube......

New to this network. Love it. Would like suggestions from you about what we as citizens can do to rein Trump in.
Shove the Presidency Down Trump’s Throat......

The main takeaway for me here sitting on the other side of the world in Australia is here in Ben and the Meidas Touch Network we have sincerity and authenticity. The mainstream media has sold out to corporate greed and corruption. Folks around the world are very scared about the Trump cesspool and how it’s going to impact long standing friendships between nations and peoples. Stay on course, keep fighting for truth and a better world. 💪❤️
Dina: Leave"like" out of your conversation, You're not a teenager,
Tell your Canadian friends not to get in a tariff war per se. Immediately put an export tax on crude oil and other things that US manufacturers require for their products.
The Midas Mighty appreciates your efforts!
Why am I showing as an unpaid subscriber when I paid $148 Canadian die a one year subscription earlier this month?
I
Proud to be a member of this community! Thank you Meiselas brothers.
Sick of goody goody we need to speak louder..Chuck Schumer? Really can't we do better
Maybe Obama would give you an interview.
...as the Pro-democracy coalition grows......Michelle Obama would come on.......
I can see that happening.........when she is ready ....MTN will be there!!!!
WOW! I knew that finding Meidas Touch Network and becoming one of the Meidas Mighty was meant to be. You all have saved me (and my family) from a very dark place reserved for the hopeless. THANK YOU from the bottom of my HOPEFUL heart ❤️ for being there for us. Being a part of this community is having another family... THANK YOU Ben, MTN and all Meidas Mighty 🤗
Fantastic idea❣️👏
Get off this string with your snake oil advertising. Grifters don't belong here.
I believe that President Obama would be pleased to be asked to come on your news broadcast Ben 😊
Jessie Jackson Jr was just on with Michael Cohen...........
The pro-democrcy-freedom coalition is growing stronger each day.
Jennifer and Angie on IHIPNEWS love you Ben!!!!!!!
This is a great idea. How about Jamie Harrison? He has things to say I bet..
I like that idea, "Dave's Mom". What better time, than the present!!
What a great idea to celebrate all the history and bi diversity, this can keep the torchlight on history. Trump and his morons want to remove them from America's story . This must not happen. Supporter from the UK 🇬🇧🇺🇸❤️
Good idea. Build a tradition in Meidas Mighty of expanding monthly perhaps conversations such as this interview on topics pertinent to each month.. some historic, some politically complex
Etc etc…
