-Surprise guest cohost!

-The White House's "Dr." Jill Biden has released the annual Christmas video, apparently directed by Stanley Kubrick. This video has *everything*: gurning Gen Z dancers, canned foley tap-dance sounds, and giant stupid flowers on heads for no discernible reason.

-Cluster B escaped the domestic sphere long ago, but when it shows up in community theater you know there's a good story behind it. We talk about the rise and fall of a narcissistic community theater diva who left broken relationships, wasted money, and canceled shows in her wake. But she gets what was coming to her in the end.

-Pick-a-mix mockery of Korporate Karens, Italian airports, and America's favorite pancake syrup.

-Something has happened to the left over the past few years. The religious fervor, the refusal to allow any disagreement, the histrionic accusations of "abuse" hurled on a dime at anyone who doesn't nod along with the latest craziness—this did not used to characterize the normal left. It does now.

-The "war on noticing" is in full swing. Asking questions about anything at all today leads to a baffled or hostile reaction. If you show even a hint of questioning about abnormal or rude behavior, people turn on you as if asking for clarification is a personal assault against them.

-We're swimming in histrionic fakers and dysregulated borderlines. But conservatives often make a mistake in how they react to this. They say, "She's never been really traumatized and it's all fakery." They see it as "either or." We see it as "both and." The weeping borderline is not, of course, being "traumatized" by being misgendered, but she likely did come from a background of abuse or neglect. Children from stable families are not motivated to act this way.

Burlington made the national news again after a man shot three college-aged Palestinian men. Everyone from the mayor to the police chief to President Joe Biden rushed in to start creating the "hate crime" narrative—even though the chief of police admits they have no indication of a motive.

We told you so. Vermont's "trans sanctuary state" laws have got abusive parents flocking to the Green Mountain state so they can legally mutilate their children and be called brave and stunning while they do so.

Disaffected producer Kevin Hurley joins us with some video of his recent attendance at a Burlington political meeting. You can't wait to see and hear the clucking among the mommies when he tells them he refuses to give his pronouns because they're "stupid and fake."Transcript

Nathalie Martinek is the "Narcissism Hacker." She works with individuals and organizations that have conflicts that arise out of narcissistic relational styles. What's interesting about Nathalie's work is that she addresses the kinds of narcissistic behaviors that all humans fall into; she's not talking only about those with full narcissistic personality disorder.

We take you inside the government sausage factory to see the process no one wants to see, but that we all need to witness. One abusive woman, who is running for City Council, has managed to suck up more than a month's worth of taxpayer dollars, government effort, and volunteer time, all because one man won't refer to her by her special pronouns.

Think of this as an "autopsy" of how a Maoist cultural and legal revolution can take over an allegedly democratically run American city. It's coming to your town too, if it isn't there already.

-We discuss the leaked pages from the "manifesto" of the Nashville Covenant School shooter, Audrey Hale, who murdered three kids and three adults on March 27, 2023. Podcaster Steven Crowder released the images after a confidential source leaked them. Yeah, they say about what you'd expect: kill the white kid with privilege.

-As Burlington, Vermont, descends into the dystopia of sidewalk homeless encampments, open crack-smoking in public, murder, and theft, the city will spend $50,000 on a PR campaign to make shoppers "feel" safe. No, they're not proposing hiring cops to actually make us safe. -Maternal sexual abuse of boy children is A-OK with us. It's so OK that a deranged blue-haired mother felt comfortable filming her stark-naked self in her living room among her children in order to show off the pretty trans-colors flag she got for "trans parents day."

As massive anti-Jewish sentiment breaks out across the west, the US and UK governments are launching. . what? "Anti-islamophobia" initiatives. While hundreds of thousands of pro-Hamas supporters throng the streets of Western cities, we're told by our government that is they, not the Jews, who are in danger. The psychopathic reversals are now immediate. 

What's the difference between "feeling unsafe" and actually being unsafe? Newsweek opinion editor (and Jewish woman) Batay Ungar-Sargon goes on Fox News to make an important point. There's "feeling" unsafe, and there's actually being unsafe. And as intimidated as Jewish college kids may feel, standing up for themselves to the bullies is a better path than asking mommy or daddy college president to soothe them. 

AI misgendering, lunatic young women with red mullets, and actual, honest-to-God Joan Crawford memorabilia takes us to the end of the show.

George Floyd was not murdered by a cop. His autopsy found no signs of suffocation or windpipe damage. What it did find was lethal levels of fentanyl. We knew this three years ago, but it's coming back around again as a new lawsuit by a Minnesota prosecutor exposes the lies.

Sadistic psychopathy is so normalized that teenaged boys are filming themselves murdering bicyclists by hitting them with cars, and they're laughing at the victim's family in court. Why shouldn't they? If you're young and black you're right to believe We share stories of growing up with a mother with Borderline personality disorder from the Disaffected audience.
