In the b-side of our US election discussion, we talk about YouTube/Twitch censorship, the Jewish wizard in Harry Potter, BlueSky as Twitter alternative, rip on Lex Fridman a bit, predict that the Democrats will do a rapid about-face against trans people, get DEEP into the vintage "scientific" antisemitism of Henry Ford's The International Jew pamphlets and - as ever - say FUCK KEIR STARMER.

Ignorant Brit Jack FR digs deep on all things American with official RP US correspondent @YairRice in our TIMELY AND PUNCTUAL response to Donald Trump's victory in the presidential election.

This episode is ALL AMERICAN MADE - produced by Yair at our Montana studios.

In a previously unreleased episode from 2021, Jack & FFF @soldierpaypig get into the weeds on politics, music & comedy while Jack has a Grateful Dead concert movie playing in the background the entire time.

Jack talks to author Toby Manning (@TobyManning) about his new book Mixing Pop and Politics: A Marxist History of Popular Music, out now from Repeater Books. Naturally, a very JFR-brained understanding of "pop" is applied to the conversation, which focuses on the Rolling Stones and Paul Weller as case studies in the connections between popular music and political ideology.

(Couldn't resist getting Toby's thoughts on the Tom York situation at the end.)

In a heated debate, the fellas settle the burning question of our time once and for all: is Eric Clapton better - politically, musically and personally - than Tom York of Radio Head.

you sort of get us in various different combinations on this one - starts off me and Yair, then it's the three of us, then it's Yair and Steffan, then it's the three of us again, then it's me and Steffan. anyway, drawing on Steffan's expertise we sort of interrogate queer identity here - via an incomprehensible tweet about Chappell Roan - in a brand new segment that Yair described to me as "little risqué at times but nothing crossed my own personal lines". i fucking love chopping it up with my boy Shrieking Tinman so this was great fun to record + listen back to - Jack

Steffan @phased_bemused returns to the show to stand in for an absent @wariotifo* as we discuss the Mike Amesbury punching scandal, the slight return of Borat, a Jewish community centre protested simply for hosting Tony Blair and multiple other war criminals, and some neocon tosser's latest "final straw" with the left.

*nothing serious, he was just hosting the Top Rope Deep Dive wrestling stream at twitch.com/MarkedAsRed
