I Don't Speak German IDSG

We continue our election year series on movies about the US President, with a chat about Ivan Reitman's Capraesque 1993 political-romantic-comedy-drama-satire(???) Dave, starring Kevin Kline as a lovable goofball Presidential lookalike who ends up actually pretending to be the President, kindasorta accidentally pulling off a (well-meaning) one-man coup d'état, enmeshed in the plots of the evil White House Chief of Staff (Frank Langella), and falling in love with the First Lady (Sigourney Weaver).

Images from new episode:

Daniel is joined by friend-of-the-pod and regular guest/collaborator Eiynah Mohammed-Smith (Polite Conversations, Woking Up,  @nicemangos (2) Eiynah (@nicemangos.bsky.social) — Bluesky ) to talk about Israel's genocide in Gaza, and in particular about some questions that have come up around IDSG's public response to it.  Jack was sadly unable to attend the recording but was fully there in spirit.

Another free public bonus in which Jack steps sideways a little from the usual IDSG focus. 
In this episode, Jack hosts a conversation with comrades Twilight O'Hara & Rowan Fortune of Anti-capitalist Resistance about their blistering and important essay A Trans* Guide to Cis Solidarity: Beyond Oppression.
This conversation was recorded in January before the show's return from hiatus.
