    48 Aaaaaaahhhh (yes, that’s the title of this one)

    48 Aaaaaaahhhh (yes, that’s the title of this one)

    This may be the most overtly political episode of the show, so feel free to skip it if that’s not your thing. If it is, LIKE AND SUBSCRIBE. 5 STARS. FOR JUSTICE or whatever.







    In this episode, we cover:









    * The attempted assassination of former President Trump and associated law enforcement/security failures







    * The susceptibility of the American public to hero narratives







    * Just how stupid the “sport” of two dudes slapping each other is







    * Phrost predicts Biden will drop out “within 72 hours” (which he did)







    * Cancel culture, and the revival of 20+ year old Bullshido forums threads







    * Jack keeps Phrost from getting himself canceled by bringing up the “hard-R” and being wildly wrong about it.









    This wasn’t supposed to be an actual podcast episode, but we decided to release it anyway because it’s been a week. As we’re typing this, it just won’t stop. We don’t even want to talk about politics this overtly, but damn…

    47 Into the Manosphere

    47 Into the Manosphere

    Not exactly a deep dive, kind of shallow… just the tip, really.







    In this episode, Phrost and Jack do a short dive into the “Manosphere” —the corner of the internet that targets emotionally vulnerable dudes (mostly younger), and exploits that vulnerability to sell them garbage supplements, “how to get a date” programs, and much worse.







    Show Notes







    Notable, if not noteworthy people mentioned in this podcast include:









    * Leeja Miller







    * Andrew Tate







    * Sneako







    * Nick Fuentes







    * Aiden Ross









    Also, in this episode you might notice Phrost or Jack reference “Drake”, who was in fact not the (alleged) groomer/Canadian hip hop star, but actually Drake_2112, one of our Twitch subscribers hanging out with us while we recorded the epsiode—which we do live, on Thursdays, semi-weekly, on Twitch.tv/Bullshido.

    46 Disinformation, Soldiers vs. Cops vs. Acorns

    On this episode of The Art of Fighting BS Podcast, Steve Mix and Phrost discuss an overview of how disinformation works and how to counter it, then the discussion goes completely off the rails and ends up about the origins of the “warrior cop” mentality and how much law enforcement sucks as a career. Also, violent terrorist acorns.

    43 Dungeons and Dragons and Viruses

    43 Dungeons and Dragons and Viruses

    Of all the podcasts we’ve done, this one definitely went the furthest off the rails. Dr. Jason Goldsmith (MD, PhD) and attorney Dante Bradley, join us to discuss the massive drama and BS in the… *checks notes* world of Dungeons and Dragons.







    For those of you who haven’t heard about D&D since the 80’s, the game has grown in popularity to ridiculous levels in the past decade with hundreds of podcasts, several live streams like Critical Role with millions of weekly followers, pop culture references in shows like Stranger Things, and a big budget movie staring Chris Pine. In the middle of all this, the parent companies that makes the official game, Wizards of the Coast (owned by Hasbro), attempted to milk that cash cow a bit too hard, triggering the biggest nerd meltdown since Gamergate.







    This meltdown and the reasons behind it are what we actually do discuss for the first part of this episode before derailing into the latest on the subject of vaccines, boosters, pandemics, and the endless BS coming from every direction on that topic as well, because we fuckin’ do what we want around here.







    Host:









    * Phrost: @Phrost









    Guests:









    * Dr. Jason Goldsmith (MD, PhD, WRX STi) @SifuJason







    * Attorney Dante Bradley

...Knowing is half the battle!

Educating yourself about controversial topics is how you keep from being sucked into other peoples echo chambers and having common sense drowned out by the repeated sound bytes. The Bullshido podcast; the best way to punch stupidity in the face.
