    The Internet is Becoming Real Life: Trump Beefs with Hasan & Woke 1.0’s Consequences

    The President is now beefing with Hasan Piker. God, please save us. On today's episode, the boys talk about how the internet isn't real life (or at least, shouldn't be), why we don't trust Hakeem Jeffries to do anything positive in his secret meeting with Jared Kushner, a series of republican switch ups (on data centers & AIPAC), and Ezra Klein’s latest think piece about Twitter. The internet is not real life, and this merger between online political discourse and actual politics is messy, to say the least.

    Hakeem Jeffries Attacks DSA & Mike “Mass Surveillance” Rogers

    Hakeem Jeffries, the Bulwark, and Third Way can't help themselves from throwing cold water on the only faction of the party that has any motion right now. Whether it be Jeffries shadowboxing with defund the police rhetoric on Meet the Press, or Third Way announcing a $15 million investment into an effort to discredit the DSA, one thing is clear: the moderates are freaking out. The Florida primary happened this week and the boys break down what we can learn from the mixed bag of results, and what the possible general election scenarios could mean for the progressive movement and Florida as a whole. With general election season in full effect in Michigan, it's important to familiarize ourselves with Abdul El-Sayed's opponent Mike “mass surveillance” Rogers. Through statements and his own legislative record, Mike has made a career out of defending and helping contribute to the mass surveillance of US citizens by the US government.

    Centrist Democrats Have Advice for Abdul El-Sayed & the Progressive Left

    Matt Yglesias and ANDREW CUOMO have a lot to say about the growing progressive movement, and the boys have a lot to say about their articles. Yglesias tries to give silly advice on how Abdul El-Sayed can appeal to moderate voters, and Cuomo, the disgraced former Governor of New York, wants to let us know how much he dislikes progressives by claiming the Democrats who vote for them are… immigrants!? Then, the #1 geopolitical podcast restakes its claim to the throne by talking about the current Iran war situation, the deteriorating conditions on the USS Lincoln, Pete Hegseth's “warrior ethos”, and what's going on in Gaza.

    Learning From Francesca Hong's Loss & Jared Moskowitz Sucks (ft. Oliver Larkin)

    Moderates cannot fail, they can only be failed... progressives on the other hand. The boys dive deep into Francesca Hong’s loss in the Wisconsin Democratic Gubernatorial Primary to moderate David Crowley. POLITICO thinks the progressive left has hit its ceiling but the situation surrounding Crowley's win is more complicated and offers useful lessons for a progressive movement that is expanding its electoral ambitions. Peggy Flanagan won her Senate Primary in Minnesota in a landslide, but you won't hear much about it from the people trying to punch left. Stay tuned to the end of the show where the boys interview Oliver Larkin! Larkin is a DSA backed candidate for Florida's 25th Congressional district, running against Jared Moskowitz – the AIPAC backed, do nothing, “DeSantis Democrat” incumbent.

    Panopticon 2.0 Just Dropped & “Democrats for Mike Rogers”

    It says “safety” so how could it be bad? On today's episode, the boys dive into the topic of Flock surveillance – the cameras put up across the nation to spy on everyone that are receiving a propaganda boost recently. In other news, we are one week into the general election in Michigan and there's already so much Discourse™: Kamala Harris endorsed Abdul, zionist Democrats are threatening to vote for Mike Rogers, and Hillary Clinton thinks she's qualified to give advice on winning Michigan. The WNBA was also in the news this week when two washed-up former NBA players announced they were signing up for the WNBA draft to raise awareness about “men in women's sports”. The only men in women's sports are the conservative men that think they're making a point by doing the thing they claim trans women are doing.   Early access on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/headintheofficepod YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4iJ-UcnRxYnaYsX_SNjFJQ Subscribe to second channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3UoTN328OA7fK2dzicP-ZA TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@headintheoffice?lang=en Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/headintheoffice/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/headintheoffice Threads: https://www.threads.com/@headintheoffice Discord: https://discord.gg/hito  Collab inquiries: headintheofficepod@gmail.com (0:00) Sam Altman is a total freak (3:05) Intro (4:45) Panopticon 2: Flock Surveillance & Controversies (27:55) ELECTION WATCH: Abdul El-Sayed, Will Lawrence (1:06:55) WNBA & the trans panic (1:21:45) Reviews/ending Seen on this episode: AI & surveillance - https://thehill.com/policy/technology/6016998-flock-camera-map-how-many-are-in-your-neighborhood/  https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2026/08/02/how-police-officers-used-vast-network-cameras-spy-their-exes/  https://www.forbes.com/sites/thomasbrewster/2026/07/17/flock-ceo-sorry-for-labelling-activists-terrorists/ Abdul news -  https://www.politico.com/news/2026/08/07/rogers-el-sayed-michigan-voters-01028511 https://www.foxnews.com/politics/biden-world-veteran-issues-stark-warning-abdul-el-sayed-crosses-party-lines WNBA -  https://19thnews.org/2025/02/ncaa-transgender-womens-sports-trump/ https://www.newsweek.com/how-many-transgender-athletes-play-womens-sports-1796006 https://www.foxnews.com/outkick-sports/former-nba-player-royce-white-declaring-next-wnba-draft-enes-kanter-announcement

    Abdul El-Sayed & Michigan Progressives Put the Establishment on FRAUD WATCH

    Abdul El-Sayed is Michigan's Democratic nominee for Senate! Today, the boys delve deep into the DISCOURSE surrounding El-Sayed's primary win, what it meant to beat Haley Stevens, and how much work is needed to get him the win in November's general election. They also talk about down ballot races, most notably in MI-7 with Will Lawrence, and in MI-13 with Donavan Mckinney and their possible up ballot effects. This general is going to be messy and Republicans have already started launching vicious attacks against Abdul. From his full name to his association with Hasan Piker, there will be no (racist) stone unturned when it comes to associating this man with terrorism for the crime of being Muslim in America.  Early access on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/headintheofficepod YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4iJ-UcnRxYnaYsX_SNjFJQ Subscribe to second channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3UoTN328OA7fK2dzicP-ZA TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@headintheoffice?lang=en Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/headintheoffice/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/headintheoffice Threads: https://www.threads.com/@headintheoffice Discord: https://discord.gg/hito  Collab inquiries: headintheofficepod@gmail.com Seen on this episode: Election news - https://www.politico.com/news/2026/08/05/michigan-senate-primary-progressives-unclear-01025096 https://bridgemi.com/michigan-government/michigan-democratic-senate-primary-results-abdul-el-sayed-haley-stevens/ https://www.nytimes.com/2026/08/05/us/politics/aipac-michigan-general-election.html?eafs_enabled=false https://michiganadvance.com/briefs/mike-rogers-florida-voter-registration-has-finally-been-canceled/  https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2026/08/05/us/elections/el-sayed-michigan-senate-precinct-maps.html?eafs_enabled=false https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/6011344-el-sayed-rogers-michigan-senate-race/ https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2026/08/04/us/elections/results-michigan-us-house-13-primary.html https://www.michigan.gov/micrc/-/media/Project/Websites/MiCRC/District-Maps-by-County/MI_AllDistricts_byCounty_Wayne.pdf?rev=dc9730cf204c42649c7d111ac77a95fa&hash=4EC6481DC1FA2E1EF1FAA39A6173DD66 https://www.wlns.com/your-local-election-hq/polling-predicted-a-much-larger-win-for-el-sayed-what-happened/

    Michigan, Make the Right Choice… or Else

    It's almost Election Night in Michigan! The boys dropped an early election night special to dive deep into the state of the Michigan Senate Primary in its final days as Haley Stevens crashes out on Twitter, runs away from influencers at her own events, and generally runs a bad campaign. With Michigan Primaries wrapping up, the boys also zoom out to talk about the DNC’s money and Ken Martin problems, and well as whatever is going on with the Iran war.  Early access on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/headintheofficepod YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4iJ-UcnRxYnaYsX_SNjFJQ Subscribe to second channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3UoTN328OA7fK2dzicP-ZA TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@headintheoffice?lang=en Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/headintheoffice/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/headintheoffice Threads: https://www.threads.com/@headintheoffice Discord: https://discord.gg/hito  Collab inquiries: headintheofficepod@gmail.com (0:00) Haley Stevens generational crash out (6:55) Intro (8:55) McMorrow accused of being DSA (17:45) More Haley Stevens hate (35:08) The DNC is BROKE (55:05) Geopolitics: Iran War updates (1:05:10) Reviews/ending Seen on this episode: Michigan Senate Race -  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5bU-WMUPZ6U https://www.wcmu.org/local-regional-news/2026-07-31/haley-stevens-departs-rally-amid-shouting-influencer-cancels-second-event https://www.cnn.com/2026/08/02/politics/michigan-senate-democrats-abdul-el-sayed-haley-stevens The DNC is broke lowkey - https://www.nytimes.com/2026/07/26/us/politics/ken-martin-dnc-democrats.html?eafs_enabled=false https://www.notus.org/democrats/dnc-headquarters-collateral-loan-ken-martin-phone Iran war -  https://apnews.com/article/trump-iran-strait-hormuz-israel-gaza-mideast-f4c225f6667d9fd171616304701825a0

    What Insurgent Left Wins Mean for Establishment Politics feat. Donavan McKinney

    The left is insurgent, and the establishment could not be more worried. In the closing days of this Michigan primary, the boys bring you TWO banger segments. First, Haley Stevens recently signal boosted a diabolical article written by a never-Trump conservative ideologue titled "Now the Democratic Party's Self-Destructive Wing Turns to Michigan". Naturally, the boys break down the think piece and explain how the establishment is mortified at the prospect of no longer having to moderate to win swing state elections if Abdul El-Sayed is victorious. Second, Gage sits down with Donavan McKinney, current State Representative and Congressional candidate for Michigan's 13th District, to discuss Shri Thanedar's failures, what Detroit needs from D.C., and the progressive left movement broadly.
