On this episode of The Tudor Dixon Podcast, Tudor sits down with former RNC Finance Chairman and entrepreneur Todd Ricketts to discuss a growing concern in the digital age: media bias and information suppression.
Ricketts shares the inspiration behind FreeSpoke, a new search engine designed to surface multiple perspectives and give users a clearer, more balanced view of the news. From claims of algorithmic bias at major tech platforms to the challenge of finding trustworthy information, this conversation dives deep into how Americans consume news—and what’s at stake if access to information is limited.
They also explore how FreeSpoke’s AI-powered tools, podcast transcription capabilities, and election portal aim to empower users to make informed decisions, especially heading into a critical midterm election cycle.
Plus, Tudor and Ricketts break down:
The role of Big Tech in shaping political narratives
Why Americans are losing trust in traditional search engines
How FreeSpoke aggregates left, right, and center perspectives
The intersection of media, politics, and the 2026 midterms
Economic messaging, voter sentiment, and what could decide the next election
