It Sounds A LOT Like Authoritarianism To Us

Co-hosts Jared Yates Sexton and Nick Hauselman discuss what Donald Trump is already putting into place, including Tom Holman as border czar (family separation will be a feature, not a bug), while mainstream media are all pledging to normalize Trump even more than they had been doing. The desperation from the Democrats is palpable, going so far as to suggest that Supreme Court justice Sonia Sotomayor retire right now.

The Trump White Supremacy Festival and Hootenanny

Co-hosts Jared Yates Sexton and Nick Hauselman pull apart the disgusting rally held at Madison Square Garden by Donald Trump heading into the final week of the campaign. All manner of racist and xenophobic tropes were on display in the name of "comedy," and it remains to be seen if it ends up affecting the race in the slightest. They shift to the non endorsement of a presidential candidate by both the Washington Post and the LA Times, proving that the state of journalism in this country is on a teetering on the abyss.

The Trump Fascist Narrative

This is a preview of the Patron-only Weekender episode. To gain full access to these episodes, as well as special post-event and live recordings, and to keep the show editorially independent and ad-free, head over to Patreon and become a subscriber today. Things have taken a turn as co-hosts Jared Yates Sexton and Nick Hauselman discuss not-so-new revelations from Donald Trump's former chief of staff John Kelly that Trump is, indeed, a fascist who pines for Hitler's generals. They shift to an op-ed from a conservative who claims Democrats are forcing her to vote for Trump as if she wasn't doing it anyway, and they wrap up on the little reported on fact that foreign actors are trying to hack into our election systems once again.

North Korean Troops In Ukraine While Trump Marvels At Arnold Palmer's Penis

Co-hosts Jared Yates Sexton and Nick Hauselman cover an overlooked story of a widening war in Ukraine as Vladimir Putin asks Kim Jong Un for troops as his own Russian soldiers are dying in the hundreds of thousands on the battlefield. They then turn to the furthering unhinged performances of Donald Trump - from being the fry guy at McDonald's to suggesting that Abraham Lincoln should've just done a deal instead of fighting the Civil War, to the reaction of golf pros to seeing Arnold Palmer's member in the shower.

I’d like to emphasize that Vance, Opus Dei, Evangelicals, etc, will all consider any win, including an unscrupulous one, evidence of God’s favor for them and their undertakings.
Necessary listening, IMO

Jared and Nick show up every week (and then some) with historical and/or contextual perspective and sometimes insight into who and how the wheels are greased. I LEARN STUFF every episode. In addition, they acknowledge our current reality in a way that we HEAR the motivation/emotion in their voices. Their investment in the world is palpable — and in a way that feels like pure humanity in a world where too little of that seems evident. I can’t say enough about this podcast or them.
