Everything Is Horrible Podcast

Yesterday Cryn Johannsen and Mark Cohen of Not On Our Watch - 501c(3) invited me on their livestream to talk about Trump’s corruption and why Americans elected this orange turd to steal from us again. We cover cyrpto, bribery, pardons, Julia Azari’s book Backlash Presidents and more!

And as always if you find my work valuable, please consider becoming a paid subscriber so I can keep scribbling.

LOLGOP asked me to join him yesterday for a live chat about Elon Musk’s role in the 2024 election. He thinks Musk maybe swung the election; I’m more skeptical!

We also talked about Musk’s horrific genocide via the destruction of USAID and why demanding more from Republicans is good and necessary even if Republicans rarely will respond.

And other things! It was a fun talk. I hope some of you check it out.

Also! My sale is still up! It’s 40% off, $30/year. I can only keep writing/commenting with your support—so please consider coming on board if you value my work.

This week I subbed in for Aaron Rupar on his weekly livechat with David Nir. Joe Sudbury joined us as well, and we talked about Joni Ernst dropping out, Ds overperforming in special elections, maybe some R resistance to RFK, Pritzker fighting, and other maybe positive things.

And you can see me proving I’m neurodivergent by embarrassingly touching my face in the thumbnail. sigh.

Anyway! Thanks to Joe Sudbay and David Nir for having me on, and I hope you all enjoy the discussion!

Hi all! Wajahat Ali of The Left Hook (which you should subscribe to!) kindly asked me onto substack live to talk about my Public Notice piece on ABC suspending Terry Moran for (accurately) calling Stephen Miller a “world-class hater.”

We also talked about protest and resistance…and I talked about Martin Niemoller and showing solidarity even to people you don’t like. Because if you don’t, we’re all fucked.

I hope you check out the video…and consider becoming a paid subscriber if you’re not. As we talk about, it’s a brutal time to be a left journalist trying to make it in mainstream media. So if you are so inclined, consider becoming a subscriber—or even a paid subscriber! It’s $5/month, $50/year.

This is the first ever episode of the Everything Is Horrible podcast! I’m cohosting with Teddy Wilson of Radical Reports , and we’re hoping to release an episode every other week.

This week we’re talking about the pros and cons of hopelessness and Tucker Carlson’s departure from Fox News. Also! Where the antiwar left has gone astray in supporting Russia’s war in Ukraine.
