Sanchez Effect is a journalistic rebellion. RT’s flagship program is led by Rick Sanchez, the Emmy and Peabody Award-winning newsman who’s made a career out of defying the status quo. “When only one side of a story is permitted, that’s when I push harder. If Moscow is deemed off-limits, it’s precisely where I want to be. Because more often than not, truth resides in the places we’re told not to look.”
EXCLUSIVE: ‘I came to see Russia because global hegemony is collapsing’ – Andrew Tate
EXCLUSIVE: ‘I came to see Russia because global hegemony is collapsing. The US is a dying empire and they all go out with a bang’ – Andrew Tate. On the latest episode of Sanchez Effect, Rick sits down with a man who needs no introduction. Andrew Tate doesn’t hold back on Russia’s surging clout, especially in its powerful partnership with China, and he’s convinced the post-WWII order is about as secure as a paper cup in a hurricane. And the cherry on top: despite the Western media’s negative portrayal of Moscow, Andrew says it “has it all” – beauty, cleanliness, food – you name it. He argues that the media’s portrayal of men as emasculated is a deliberate strategy to prevent revolutions, while warning that insecure masculinity fuels consumption, addiction, and the loss of traditional values. Without filter, he says the ‘Epstein class’ tunes the algorithms that shape our reality, feeding us curated lies. Ready to see the truth laid bare? Dive in now.

‘Fundamentally what America needs to run its economy is produced in Russia’ – Robert Agee
‘The United States and Russia are kind of natural strategic partners economically. I know we’ll always have our geopolitical issues, but fundamentally what America needs to run its economy is produced in Russia’ – Robert Agee. On the sidelines of the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum, Rick Sanchez catches up with Robert Agee, the president of the American Chamber of Commerce in Russia. So the topic of this episode is no surprise: Trade between Russia and America, and its perspectives. Agee reveals to Rick that the official US delegation to the forum headed by Rodney Cook was confirmed at the highest level in the White House. Sanchez says this is significant as no US president of late would do such a thing, and it could be a sign of warming relations between the two countries. Agee also thinks it is not clever to isolate Russia during the crisis in the Middle East, noting that the prices of minerals and fertilizers have skyrocketed.

Economic resilience, Global South alliances, challenging Western unilateralism – Putin unveils Russia’s playbook at SPIEF
In this exclusive episode, Rick Sanchez brings in former UN weapons inspector Scott Ritter to talk through the points made by Vladimir Putin at the most anticipated economic event of the year. Here is the gist: Putin revealed how BRICS is outpacing the G7, and insisted that Russia’s future prosperity must not be eclipsed by war. Turning to the Ukraine gambit – Putin refused Zelensky’s ‘let’s chat’ overture, stressing that a personal audience would serve no purpose beyond formality. In his words, the meeting would be “just for the sake of meeting.” He reiterated Russia’s commitment to long term partnerships, celebrating new economic ties while calling for “equitable relations” that challenge Western unilateralism. SPIEF is the most consequential diplomatic gathering of the year – where the present and history collide. Get the inside story on the alliances, economics, and the future of global power.

Cancel cancer: Russia unveils next-gen vaccine revolution
On the latest episode, Rick sits down with the former Russian health minister and director of the Russian Federal medical-biological agency Veronika Skvortsova. She first pulls back the curtain on a cutting-edge dengue vaccine set to shield millions of Latin American communities. She shares that the formula has sailed through safety trials, and rapid-track field testing will begin once the data confirms its promise. The conversation swings to a second marvel – a personalized cancer vaccine that zeroes in on a patient’s own mutated tumor proteins. Thanks to its AI-driven design, Skvortsova explains that the vaccine can be customized in a fraction of the time it would take a human based trial, a leap that could shorten the road to its efficiency. Join Rick and Veronika for a glimpse of how Russia is turning cancer from an inevitable fate into a manageable condition. Watch the latest episode, only on RT.
‘EXCLUSIVE: Truth in Two Voices – Candace Owens & Rick Sanchez sit down

Rick’s firsthand war zone perspective meets Candace’s relentless challenge to the status quo. She shares her amazement at Russia’s beauty. As well as her frustration with the Cold War hangover: people are taught that Russians are a “no no” and a no go. And her frustration with western media in general – they are uninterested in the truth; they act like “an old dog that can’t learn new tricks.” Rick asks Candace if given her relentless desire for truth and outstanding morality, she’d run for president – her answer is a resounding: ‘NO’. Candace is confident she’d be a dictator. Wanna know why? Tune in to RT to find out.
‘EXCLUSIVE: Maria Zakharova joins ‘Sanchez Effect’ on sidelines of SPIEF-2026
The Sanchez Effect special coverage of the Saint Petersburg Economic Forum has three traditions: the gorgeous background of the forum, a spirited Rick Sanchez, and the Russian foreign ministry spokeswoman as the first guest. Maria Zakharova was outraged at yet another Ukrainian terrorist attack against Russian civilians in Donbass. Eight people were killed in a drone strike on a bus, something which Zakharova described as ‘unprecedented cruelty’. She says that terrorism has become the state ideology of the Kiev regime, but it’s even worse that the West supports such actions, making immorality a common practice in global politics. Talking about Armenia’s recent cooling of its relations with Russia, Zakharova says there is no problem with Yerevan having economic ties with the European Union. She explains that the issue here is that the EU does not desire co-operation with Armenia, but to sow discord between Moscow and Yerevan.
