    329: RAT CRUISE & FBI STEALS BEASTIE BOYS

    On this episode of Without a Country, Corinne Fisher dives into one of the strangest and most unsettling stories of the week: a deadly hantavirus outbreak aboard a quarantined cruise ship off the coast of Africa. With multiple deaths, questions about human-to-human transmission, and passengers trapped at sea, the story quickly turns into something that feels ripped straight out of a thriller movie. Corinne also takes a deep look into the disturbing online communities tied to the Columbine shooters and how vulnerable teenagers are being pulled into extremist internet subcultures through platforms like Roblox, Discord, TikTok, and private chat groups. The conversation explores loneliness, bullying, internet radicalization, and the growing difficulty parents face trying to understand what their kids are exposed to online. Later in the episode, the focus shifts to AI, data centers, and the future of American jobs. As towns across the country push back against massive AI infrastructure projects, Corinne breaks down the tension between technological progress, environmental concerns, corporate power, and the fear of what automation could mean for everyday workers. From cruise ship paranoia and internet cult behavior to AI expansion and political hypocrisy, this episode covers the chaos, contradictions, and weirdness shaping modern life right now.

    Welcome to Without a Country, where Corinne Fisher breaks down the biggest stories in politics, culture, and the internet without the usual filter. This episode covers a wide range of topics, starting with a review of the new documentary series Trust Me: The False Prophet and Russell Brand still talking about the most disgusting acts on podcasts, and a listener submitted story about sloths who are being treated poorly. Corinne get into the chilling tale of Rapper/R&B star D4vd who has been charged in the murder of a 14 year old girl. Corinne gives a recap of the story from several different news sources and the evidence that has piled up by internet slueths over the years with everything from songs, to discord shout outs and even archived livestreams. There’s also a look at the DOJ going after The Southern Poverty Law Center seemingly for following the same playbook the FBI did to infiltrate the Black Panthers in the 1970's. Corinne exams the origins of the group, what they were doing with the money, how it can be construed as "fraud" and more. Later in the episode, Corinne talks about the problems that the Trump administration is facing, another female staffer being made to fall on the sword for the sins of the regime, an update on the Straight Of Hormuz and so much more!
