Hi all,

I wanted to share the most recent episode of my podcast series, because it was our second collaboration with the awesome folks over at MeansTV (with more planned for the future!). The documentary series we discussed is also really cool, because it's about this intersection between niche online community building, digital preservation and its challenges, and obscure gaming history. We try to cover a lot in a short amount of time, but I'm also trying to use my show as a way to platform leftist creators and media, so that's why I tend to share episodes on here a lot.

And if you don't mind, please do give us a kind rating and review on the podcast platform(s) of your choice. We are everywhere, but it's hard to get our show seen without reviews. Thanks! Also, our season 1 finale is next week, and it's gonna be a doozy. :)

I try not to do this every time (although I guess that's the wrong way to self-promote, but whatever), but I wanted to share the most recent episode of my history/film and media studies podcast series and ask for feedback. It's on the film "Cabaret" and using it as a lens to study interwar Germany, fascism, queer culture, the arts, etc. I'm really proud with how this one came out, and I think it's one of the best of our non-interview episodes, but I would also really appreciate feedback because this is the kind of work we want to keep doing for people and insight (from both historians and non-historians) would be greatly appreciated. I hope you like it.

Something a little bit new for our show, so feedback is appreciated. Please do also check out our other episodes- we cover a variety of topics, every episode is ad-free and available everywhere. All we ask is that if you like our show that you leave us a (nice) rating and review, as we need those to get more traction. Our mission is to bring scholarship (and leftist political theory) to the public. :)

So the “cool” part of this is obviously deeply ironic, but I think the bit hinges entirely on the fact that Hunter is such an extreme fuckup to the point of caricature. While I genuinely don’t know anything about him other than what was said on Chapo, I do think it’s funny that the son of a sitting president once ascribed to Liberation Theology (which is good). Also, Don Jr. would absolutely shit his pants if he was in the same room as Hunter, which would be funny.

Only a few minutes in, but this is pretty good

I just hope that Don Jr deep down knows how much his dad fucking hates him

And crucially, they can only imagine winning an argument in good faith against a good faith opponent, without fundamentally changing the politics of their opponent outside of this one argument. Republicans imagine the mass executions of democrats, while democrats imagine one Republican doing the right thing and voting on some milquetoast reform bill.

I can’t afford/make the time to see a therapist, but I watch The Price is Right every day. Then I always want to talk about it with people, but nobody wants to.

So the reason why this movement specifically is tied to these “big” schools is twofold:

The “divest” part of BDS is directed at wealthy private schools like Harvard and Yale who have large financial stakes in the defense industry and Israeli companies. Their schools are, through their investments, much more complicit than Podunk State.

These elite schools are recruiting and/or research institutions for the military/industrial complex, and are therefore more involved than other institutions. Schools like Stanford are integral to the maintenance and perpetuation of the war machine, and therefore the actions of the student body are in response to that context.

The democrats must try harder to appeal to the people who say they eat babies

I am old enough to have witnessed the golden age of The Simpsons as it was happening, and I know that, even then, people thought it was past its prime. I was among the many who tut-tutted that it was trash beginning in the early 2000s, but… I was getting over being sick a week or so ago, and I gave myself an experiment that bore surprising results. I knew there were a couple episodes I liked in the early teen seasons (or at least, ones that stuck in my head and made me chuckle), so how far could I go through The Simpsons before I find a season with NO good episodes? I skipped ToH episodes just so I have more new stuff for spooky season, but I’m in the mid 20s seasons and I’m surprised at how much I’m enjoying these episodes. I skip around based on synopsis, so I’m not watching all of them, but I feel like this show is much better than I thought it was at that point in its life. Just wanted to share this somewhere.

These people are so dumb, they aren’t “water mountains”, they are Lands with the subtypes Island and Mountain, meaning they can tap for blue or red mana.
