In this special rush release episode of The Carousel, I’m joined by legendary movie impresario Hadrian Belove.

Some refer to Hadrian as “the original cancelled man” due to his absurd banishment from CineFamily—the notorious, celebrity-studded LA film enjoyment club—at the cusp of MeToo. Wrong place, wrong time.

But we’re not here to talk about the past. Hadrian was in part responsible for planning this year’s Urbit Assembly in Lisbon, which wrapped last week. In doing so, he brought in KIRAC (Keeping It Real Art Critics) to intermingle with the digital sovereignty nerds that populate the Urbit ecosystem.

KIRAC is a troupe of Dutch YouTube tricksters (although they hate being called that) that mock and interrogate the intelligentsia with brutal honesty, or, more accurately, honest brutality. They’re infamous for persuading Michel Houellebecq to appear in a porn. In response, the world’s greatest writer flipped out, filing a lawsuit blocking release, and writing a whole book about it.

KIRAC is at its best when it’s doing art world subversion. You really fall in love with them when you watch “Stigma,” where Kate Sinha, wife of main-guy Stefan Ruitenbeek, calls an awful diversity artist a “spoiled b***h,” and we get to witness the subsequent struggle session in front of the Dutch art establishment.

However, like Borat and Sam Hyde before them, KIRAC reaches uncomfortable levels of trollishness. See e.g. “Honeypot,” in which they get one of their groupies to have sex with a right wing philosopher—or at least that’s the set up before she rejects him for being “an oaf.”

So how did KIRAC handle Urbit Assembly? Since the video isn’t out yet, we don’t know. All we do know is that Stefan Ruitenbeek purportedly got meningitis and the remaining underlings spread false rumors about a “ketamine orgy” involving certain high ranking members of the dissident fringe. The groupies also poured milk over themselves after a screening in which one of them broke up with her boyfriend on camera.

What does any of this mean? Listen above or watch below.

Zuki AKA Zukiman AKA 6ukim9. Extremely controversial, widely reviled Twitter personality, known for sharing all sorts of uncomfortable details…and occasionally deeply insightful truths.

The dissident OG joins me at WILL global HQ to discuss motorcycle radicalism, his thoughts about rebellion, and of course the famous crack story.

NOTE: here's the principle of The Carousel: I don't deplatform—I don't believe in it. I'll give anyone a chance to say their piece, insofar as they aren't doxxing anyone on the air. I'll have anyone from groypers to antifa to hostile journalists to known federal agents on here if they don’t doxx. This is the radical nature of this show, I think very much needed in the era of Cancel Culture.

Joe Rodgers is the print editor of Bitcoin Magazine, a beautifully printed and terribly underrated contribution to the dissident sphere. They’re ahead of the curve on pretty much every topic, from SBF to El Salvador, and have published anons like Aristophanes and comedians like Tim Dillon. All around based and redpilled—and with 3M followers on Twitter. So big that they were just sued by their arch enemy, the Fed, over parody meme merch.

Connective tissue has so far failed to grow between the dissident right and Bitcoin HODLers; odd because there’s so much overlap and mutual benefit. This is, in part, because the DR doesn’t fully understand the Bitcoiners. Bitcoin purists are in fact an entirely different breed that crypto bros, which I learn in this conversation.

Swarthy Dutchman Ian Piepenbrock also runs his own marketing agency called Gobsmacked out of The Netherlands. It specializes in making beautiful videos for factories and other industry—reindustrializing Europe one brand at a time.

We talk about his insatiable love for black women, and argue about whether the Dutch or the Jews are the cheaper people.

Jeremy Carl: Yale, Claremont, Trump White House, Montana. Our guy in every sense of the phrase, Carl is one of those fortunate few who makes a living making good points. His incisive Twitter takes and threads (great one on Dominique Venner) mark the tip of the iceberg of a wide body of work in the vein of Christopher Caldwell and Christopher Rufo.

He focuses on the intersection of culture/identity and law/policy—check out his work in American Mind and American Greatness—and is rapidly becoming the go-to guy on anti-white racism, a designation that, for reasons we discuss, makes us both uncomfortable. We talk about the history of race law and policy, whether the United States is a “white country,” and why the left doesn’t want to call wokeness a religion.

Keep an eye out for his upcoming book on the topic from Regnery, once called “It’s Ok to Be White,” but now sadly renamed something less perfect.

The Adderall-fueled writer’s room of the American left has decided, quite insanely, to make a propaganda initiative out of the notion of “banned books.” They know that Americans balk at the idea of burning and banning books, so Gavin Newsom et al are pretending that elementary schools eschewing 2SLGBTQIA+ manuals on how to give queer b******s are “banning books.” Very typical Alinksy-style opportunism. Of course, it is in fact the hegemonic left increasingly banning books they don’t like… while fake handwringing over banned books.

Here are just a few books that have been effectively banned via various underhanded methods, including acquiring copyrights only to destroy them.

* Camp of the Saints

* The Turner Diaries

* Background to Betrayal

* High School Race War by Harold Saltzman

Meet anon Alaric the Barbarian, founder of Dissident Review, publisher of genuinely dissident thought in many forms. One his projects is buying “banned” books and republishing them, making them readily available for sale.

He recently republished My Confession, by Samuel Chamberlain, a brutal and honest first-person non-fiction account of a cowboy killing people and scalping Indians for pay during and after the Mexican War of 1846-48. My Confession is the basis for Blood Meridian, but it’s original version had been largely lost to the public. A watered-down milquetoast edition was published in its place. But Alaric crowdsourced the costly purchase of an original edition, including Chamberlain’s drawings, and republished it. It is now available on Amazon.

Please enjoy our conversation about his project and more.

On this week’s Carousel we have anon Meta Prime. I like to think of him as the halfway house of the Dissident Right. Not an insult; it’s a beautiful role to play. He helps people who have recently “broken free from the mainstream delusion,” escape not into nothingness (total disconnection from friends/family/work) or toxicity (conspiritard obsessions), but into a meaningful existence as a noticer and rejector of the mainstream narrative.

His steps towards a healthy dissident lifestyle are as follows:

* Awakening

* Framework Building

* Self-Improvement

* Creation

* World Betterment

You can learn more about these steps, and see much more of his work, at his beautifully designed website: MetaPrime001.com.

Rushing this one out to provide on-the-ground perspective of the Hamas attack in Israel, October 6th, 2023, on 50th Anniversary of the Yom Kippur War.

Just minutes ago, Israel officially declared war in response to a series of coordinated attacks on both civilian and military targets, along with a rocket barrage.

I’m joined by based Twitter friend and Israeli Settler Baruch Kogan. One of my favorite accounts, his wry commentary always makes me laugh. He's also a fascinating dude; he lives in a small Jewish settlement on a hill in Samaria, where he is currently posted up, attempting to better arm himself while protecting his family, and refusing to run away or back down.

He says that this is the most significant Israel incursion in two decades, and will have major implications for the current Israeli government and the world. How did this happen, and why now? He answers everything in the episode.

I previously appeared on his podcast Postkahanism here:
