Arguably one of the Reddest states in the country is sick of these weirdos.
Great news for my state.
I think pretty much all of the people I know who are pro freedom caucus aren't from here.
i just finished the episode with dana el kurd from aug 4th about the morocco occupation of western sahara, and i’m rather confused. i’m probably a more “low information” listener as i didn’t get a great education about the world when i was in school, but i’m trying to catch up by subscribing to podcasts like this one.
would anyone be willing to provide a quick explainer of the background context that the episode is based on? it sounds like there is a territorial dispute meaning that it doesn’t count as a country? also i didn’t really understand towards the end how the guest was getting angry at americans for supporting israel when there’s obviously heaps of protests about that and then also what does that have to do with africa.
please be kind, i swear i paid attention to the episode and i am trying to learn!
Thanks for the GlobeCon episodes, Neoliberals are baffling and I'm thankful for the explanation.
I like it.
The episode with Molly is A+. I love that she can be so honest and open about not knowing things and about wanting to fill in holes she didnt even know existed. Also, if Molly wants to visit wildlife, that can be arranged.
Shitty Salad- I appreciate the comment about US unions organizing labor in Mexico if they really cared about farm labor. NAFTA has caused many complications to many aspects of intercontinental trade, food is just another one.
Sound- really solid
Song/bumper music- it's very James and the vibe is spot on.
Dr James Stout- it's always nice when he uses the honorific he worked hard to earn.
JBGCs had a resurgence during Trump 1 and gained notoriety for their presence at protests and counter protests. Their activity decreased under Biden since threats were less imminent.
I figured they would have bounced back now under Trump 2, especially with how aggressive Trump 2 started out. I have followed several JBGCs on Twitter and then Bluesky and it seems they have all gone quiet.
Are they still active and just not as public? If not, then why aren't armed leftists organizing the same way? Or have they found other alternatives?
I’ve been following you every day for about 2 years, and there has always been 0-1 episodes added per day.
In PocketCasts, I seen3 episodes, 2 of which are very interesting and as a sports fan that casually hates on golf, I’m interested in the 3rd as well.
Edit: James and Molly are some gangstas. I had just looked looked for and downloaded books on how natives handles wild fires after last week’s episode.
Residents did not speak at a City Council hearing this week merely to express discomfort with new technology. They presented an evidence-based argument that the current system is inadequately governed, vulnerable to abuse, and capable of uses far beyond the narrow public-safety examples emphasized by its defenders.
Like its just a generic ad for for the *concept* of kewpie mayo even if it is targeted at a specific brand.
Also I despise that the ad is SO LOUD compared to other ads. Its a great way to annoy me into never buying that mayo.
Anyway ads are good so all the coolzone staff can have health insurance, but this specific one grinds my gears.
I live near Winona. Not a huge city, with not a lot going on usually. Biggest claim to fame is being the birth place of Winona Ryder and the source of her name. The Flock situation is a win. However the PD is notoriously shitty. I've heard lots of stories over the years of bad interactions.
Margaret killed it, I hope this becomes a regular segment
The english version of Daloy Politzei mentioned in today‘s episode is by Geoff Burner.
GlobeCon episode rocked!
I just wanted to give a shoutout to Mia after finishing the most recent ICHH episode :) It’s been really lovely to see her growth as a journalist and see her confidence and skill grow. You’re doing amazing Mia!!!!
For a couple years there have been white nationalist stickers placed around town. The stickers aren't over the top racist just very dog whistly: "It ok to be White" "White Lives Matter" "Protect White Children" with statistics about declining birth rates in the west. Blah blah blah. No matter how many times they get taken down, they always come back.
I frequent the Internet Archive to look for new music artists, movies, tv shows, graphic novels, etc... Amazing website and to me; the last great website of the early internet. Anyway, I very randomly came across the account of the racist group responsible for the stickers. These chuds actually film themselves going around the country and stickering places including my small corner of the world. It's actually a much bigger problem than just a local racist. My wife was confused by my excitement about my discovery. I'm not a journalist but I felt the high from connecting dots of a mystery and the low of realization that this is a MUCH bigger problem and no one wants to see it. So they don't. Anyway thought I'd share my small Its Happening Here story
Trigger warning link: very racist and gross but you might find your community targeted.

Well, one of them. There are several in this vein and they kinda rule.
Hi, I was wondering if anyone knows of any past episodes about worker coops?
I've heard Margaret Killjoy mention some involvement with them in passing on CPWDCS, but I would really like to hear anything the crew has to say in a more in depth format. I'd especially love to hear some commentary by Mia Wong on more in depth financial/economic stuff you don't commonly find online.
Sorry if this is a annoying question, I tried searching a few places, but these days search isn't all that helpful.
I was fortunate to connect with James when he came up here to check out our wildfire situation and connect with Tribal folks.
I've also done some of the mutual aid supply runs to the reservation before and during the Spokane evacuation. Happy to answer questions if you have any about things up here.
I remain evacuated (safe and still have a house in the zone), but if you've got questions let me know and I'll do my best
