The Two Matts

Gaza, Columbia and the Copium epidemic


Listen Later

The ceasefire is over. More than 400 Palestinians, including children, are dead after Israeli air bombardments in the middle of the night, with the assent of Donald Trump’s White House. What end is there now, other than the ultimate ethnic-cleansing of Palestine? 


Meanwhile, in New York’s Columbia University, a student is threatened with deportation for pro-Palestinian activism. The Matts look deep into the authoritarian regime forming in Washington. But don’t worry about any of that! Simply take your daily prescription of Copium and let your liberal anxieties drift away in a warm, fuzzy blur of complacency. It’s all the rage - and it’s why the Matts pledge the New European will forever be a Copium Free Zone. Tune in and find out why!
