• Episode 134 - Cat's Out Of The Bag
    Sep 17 2024

    Jen and Noam discussed last week’s events the way a four-year-old eats; we mashed everything together on the plate and consumed it. From the Trump - Harris debate to Haitians not eating cats in Ohio (or anywhere else apparently), turning eating the dogs and eating the cats into a meme, another crazy person trying to assassinate Trump, and Laura Loomer looming over the Trump campaign.

    We will hopefully be back to streaming this week, barring anything insane happens. Check us out on Twitch Thursday nights at 7:30 p.m. EST!

  • Episode 133 - The Americans
    Sep 9 2024

    Noam and Jen discuss notable conservative podcasters / YouTubers getting busted taking Russian money, the silliness of the “I was deceived!” defense, who is getting a better ROI on their disruption spending, the Tucker / Darryl Cooper interview, the absolute silliness of the idea that the origins and motivations of the players in WWII are simply unknowable and open to interpretation, the collapse of the trust in media and established facts, the idea that you can decide to learn whatever you want to learn about, how garbage TwitX has become and what to make of that in light of the week’s revelations about Russian influence in American political discourse.

    And we managed to doo all that without a digression into WWI history. I know, we’re proud too.

    We will be back to streaming this week hopefully, barring any lingering illnesses or other catastrophes. Check us out Thursday nights at 7:30pm EST on Twitch!

  • Episode 132 - Joy, Division
    Aug 26 2024

    Jen and Noam discuss the joyful DNC, the rejection of the progressive keyboard warriors and their dumb demands, the contrast between Team Happy and whatever the hell is going on with Republicans, Barack Hussein Obama, RFK Jr. dropping out of the race (kinda) to support Trump, Disney+ canceling The Acolyte after one boring season, the limits of an expanded universe, and Noam makes Jen sad by bringing up the upcoming debates.

  • Episode 131 - Spicy Hot Takes
    Aug 19 2024

    Noam and Jen enjoy the relative calm of the past week, where the most controversial take was Walz’s taco recipe. They (well at least Jen) enjoyed that there was an actual discussion about economic policy despite it being price controls vs tariffs, Vance is still weird not for the stuff he did in high school and college, the upcoming DNC, a Taylor Lorenz Minute!, and Natasha Frost doxxing Jews for no good reason.

    We will not be having a stream this week because Thursday is someone’s special day, but we will catch you next week! In the meantime, be sure to subscribe to our Twitch channel.

  • Episode 130 - Exhaustion '24
    Aug 12 2024

    Jen and Noam are exhausted, and it’s not even mid-August. We cover the Walz as VP drama, stolen valor, word coping mechanisms, The Vibes Election, when is anyone going to interview Kamala, Trump’s wild helicopter rise with a black guy, is Trump mentally slipping, the debates that both will and will not happen, weird goings-on in Trumpland,a nd other random bits of ephemera.

  • Episode 129 - Waiting For Kamala
    Aug 6 2024

    Noam and Jen waited for Kamala, but she (or at least her VP nominee announcement) didn’t come. No matter, there was still plenty to talk over; the assissinations of Hamas head Ismael Haniyeh and Hezbollah senior member Fuad Shukr, what it all means for what comes next in the Middle East, the massive prisoner exchange between the US / Germany and Russia, the massive messup Bloomberg News made in jumping the gun on reporting the swap, Rolex watches, and what you could buy us to show your appreciation.

  • Episode 128 - Veeps
    Jul 29 2024

    Jen and Noam do not have to throw a week’s worth of notes in the fire! Hooray! The past week has still been quite eventful; Kamala (or Nancy, really) gets the thumbs up from all the major Democratic players, Joe says goodbye to the campaign trail, the Democratic veepstakes begins, J.D. Vance is confronted with his own statements, and the Normies start to realize that conservatives are weird.

    At the end of the episode, we touch briefly on Hezbollah’s (yes, it was them) rocket attack on civilians in Golan Heights, a topic I’m sure we will be revisiting in the upcoming week.

  • Episode 127 - The Great Unburdening
    Jul 22 2024

    Noam and Jen ONCE AGAIN have to preempt a whole week’s worth of news to discuss breaking news, this time to discuss Biden’s announcement that he is dropping out of the presidential race (but not resigning) and endorsing Kamala Harris to be the nominee. We give our initial thoughts on Biden’s bow out, where this leaves the pundit class, how this changes the view of the RNC and Trump’s speech, Biden making himself a lame duck president, who’s on first, the geopolitical angle of needing to know who’s on first, and we snuck in a little discussion about Trump’s would-be assassin and the curious incuriosity of everyone on this topic.
