Bad Hasbara - The World's Most Moral Podcast

In a record-breaking runtime, Matt and Daniel welcome UN Special Rapporteur on the Occupied Palestinian Territories, Francesca Albanese. They discuss the way 9/11 re-ordered the international diplomatic landscape, whether purported democracies should be judged by their professed values or their actions, and the Minions as the artistic manifestation of a smooth-domed evil man from the real world.

Matt, Daniel and Producer Adam take a spin through the political establishment’s exhausting, continued Hasan Piker obsession, Ed Sheeran’s apolitical politicking, and the fencepost-shaped notch in Brad Lander’s ass.

This week Matt and Daniel are sans Producer Adam and therefore forced to write their own episode description. We talked to Cameron Kasky about the Republican Jewish Coalition and he taught Daniel what a catfish is. We also talked about new BDS legislation and other stuff. Adam is much better at writing these.

Matt and Daniel are together again and absence made the pod grow longer. It’s a super-size ep with European Council on Foreign Relations Fellow and writer Muhammad Shehada covering the daily stress and strain of life in Gaza, the packed clown car of political appointees and toadies lining up to profit from Gaza torment and reconstruction, and the proliferation of constant indignities and small-scale violent acts that serve to obscure the overall magnitude of the cruelty visited on Gaza.
