Walk-Ins Welcome with Bridget Phetasy

Bridget checks in with Maggie right after finishing the first draft of her book, The Left Can’t Meme: How Comedy Wins Culture Wars. She walks through the brutal, years-long process of selling and writing it — the endless proposal feedback loops, the mental block of trying to write about the culture while the culture is still unfolding, and surrendering to the lack of control you have about what’s going on in the world during the process. They discuss the question she set out to answer: how did the left lose the culture when they owned Hollywood, publishing, media, and big tech? She also gets into why revisiting the last decade left her angrier and more radicalized than when she started, battling resistance and self-doubt, reliving just how dark the Biden years and COVID really were, how Elon buying Twitter liberated the discourse, and why the book is dedicated to the shitposting anons.

#TheLeftCantMeme #WritingABook #walkinswelcome 

Topics covered: writing a book about the culture war, how the left lost the culture, using AI as a research tool, The War of Art and creative resistance, COVID lockdowns and the Biden years, Elon buying Twitter and free speech, memes and 4chan, the book writing process

Original Air Date - October 10, 2024
Author Brendan O’Neill joins Bridget to talk about his book, After The Pogrom: 7 October, Israel and The Crisis of Civilization. They discuss the aftermath of Hamas's attack on October 7th, 2023, what it told us about the West, the lure of barbarism, the rise of antisemitism, why we shouldn’t be allowed to forget what happened on October 7th, and why his book should make you angry because it highlights the appalling truth that people in the West are cheering one of the most regressive and racist movements on Earth - Hamas. They cover the ideological indoctrination of our youth, the resurgence of ancient antisemitic tropes, the failures of modern feminism, the West's inability to confront global threats, moral cowardice, the madness of the elites, racism masquerading as anti-racism, and the importance of mockery in challenging dominant ideologies.

Bridget Phetasy sits down with Peachy Keenan — author of Domestic Extremist and her new book Supervillains: Architects of America's Decline — for a wide-ranging conversation about who's actually driving the country's decline and why the people trying to stay normal are the real heroes. Peachy makes the case that the most damaging villains aren't the famous ones but the "female liberation theologists" peddling what she calls divorce porn — the Eat Pray Love, Glennon Doyle genre that tells women their boring husband and their kids are the thing holding them back. They get into why the grass is almost never greener, why the fight now feels like sane vs. crazy instead of left vs. right, and why Gen X women turned out so based (a theory involving both childhood neglect and the zero-fucks power of menopause). Plus: the manosphere and looksmaxxing takeover of teenage boys, why teenage girls have checked out of politics entirely, the Sydney Sweeney hypocrisy, H-1B visas and the hollowing out of the middle class, California's ongoing collapse, and how to raise resilient kids in a world you can't predict.

Dave Landau returns to the podcast to talk about his new comedy special, breaking down the nuts and bolts of what actually goes into making a stand-up special, how he assembles a set from road-tested bits, how many shows you actually tape, the art of crowd work - engaging with the audience but not losing control of the room - and why some venues now expect it when they used to frown on it. He and Bridget discuss why comedy is more popular now than ever, how podcasting changed the comedy world, and why the best material comes from your real life. Then they go broad, talking about the 25th 9/11 anniversary, the loss of innocence that turned America from a high-trust to a low-trust society, what really going on in Michigan, and a shared frustration with the podcasters peddling nihilism and hopelessness to their audiences while they fly around on private jets, and what a better message would be.

Bridget sits down with Mike Solana — founder of Pirate Wires — who returns to the podcast to talk about why it's nearly impossible to figure out what's actually real anymore. They get into how everyone's algorithm has quietly split us into separate internets, where one person's feed is wall-to-wall Imam videos and another has never seen a single one, the art of hosting a podcast, and why comedians are just weather vanes for the mood of the masses. They also cover the rising glee around political violence on both sides, the collapse of a shared American identity into thousands of micro-tribes, the real reasons people hate data centers, whether we're sliding into a post-literate society, wondering if the solution is just shutting the whole internet down and reopening the malls.

#PirateWires #MediaCriticism #WalkInsWelcome

Topics covered: algorithm silos and different internets, reading the culture in a fragmented media landscape, comedians as weather vanes, celebrating political violence, collapse of shared identity, data centers and NIMBY backlash, Trump deplatforming and censorship, post-literate society, hang podcasts vs. interview shows, relaunching Pirate Wires

Bridget Phetasy sits down with Max Marion - founder of one of the highest-potency Omega-3 companies in the world, AquaOmega — for a deep dive into why Omega-3s might be the single most important supplement almost nobody is taking correctly. Max explains why less than 2% of North Americans get enough Omega-3s, how our seed-oil-soaked diets flooded us with inflammation, and why most fish oil on the shelf is cheaply made, oxidized, and processed with industrial solvents — including a live Styrofoam cup test that shows exactly what those solvents do. They get into the difference between EPA and DHA, why you can't get enough nutrients from food anymore, Omega-3s and pregnancy, anxiety, sleep and brain health, and how Max sourced supplement production after touring the disturbing underbelly of the industry. Plus: his ocean plastic passion project pulling a pound of debris for every bottle sold, microplastics in our water and food, and how to actually navigate the wellness industry without getting scammed.

AquaOmega: One of the highest-dose omega-3 supplements per serving, no fish burps, and for every bottle sold, removes 1 lb. of plastic and debris from the ocean and coastlines. Use code BRIDGET for 20% off at https://myaquaomega.com/BRIDGET

Bridget Phetasy sits down with comedian Lou Perez, author of That Joke Isn't Funny Anymore: On the Death And Rebirth of Comedy, to talk about what the internet actually did to comedy. They get into why short-form content rewired the whole art form, how crowd work turned audiences into performers who think heckling is helping, and why the average anonymous shitposter is now funnier than a lot of professionals. They also cover the relationship between satire and shame, why satire loses its teeth in a culture with no shame left, the difference between American comedians congratulating themselves for being brave and the people who actually go to jail for jokes, and how platform censorship taught everyone to talk in euphemisms. Plus: clapter vs. laughter, influencer families and the dark side of putting your life online.

Bridget Phetasy sits down with Katharine Birbalsingh — the founder of Michaela Community School and the woman known as Britain's strictest headmistress — to talk about how an entire generation grew up without values, and whose fault that actually is. Katharine makes the case that kids never abandoned their values; they were simply never taught them, because Gen X and Boomers took those values for granted and stopped leading. They get into why consistency in praise and punishment is everything, why you should praise the work and not the child, the case for choosing religion over woke when picking a school, and the smartphone fight — including why Katharine thinks parents who hand a toddler an iPad are handing them a manual for ruining their life. Plus: why you can't trust the school to teach your child anything, the trap of victimhood culture on both the left and the new right, and the importance of inoculating your kids against any ideology you don’t agree with before it reaches them.

Topics covered: raising kids with traditional values, praise the work not the child, choosing religion over woke, smartphones and children, homeschooling, inoculating kids against gender ideology, cultural Marxism, victimhood culture, gentle parenting vs. discipline, why kids never learned values

Bridget sits down with Jennifer Sey, founder of XX-XY Athletics — to talk about why the fight to keep men out of women's sports is gaining ground. They get into Sophie Cunningham becoming the active pro athlete willing to say girls deserve their own spaces, why the WNBA, the media, and corporate America are still acting like it's 2020, and why Caitlin Clark shouldn't be a target for saying she just wants to play basketball. They cover the Fauci Diaries and the rage of being proven right when COVID cost Jennifer friendships, family, and the life she loved in San Francisco — and why, in her experience, only about ten percent of people will ever take a stand that costs them something. It's a conversation about courage, resilience, and what it actually takes to say the true thing out loud when everyone around you is too afraid to.

Bridget Phetasy sits down with fitness coach Stasia Patwell, to talk about fitness, recovery and how COVID accidentally launched her career. They get into why accountability is the only thing that actually works, how AA and weight training are basically the same program, why most trainers who tell you they love working out might be lying to you, and why Stasia’s approach of embracing the fact that you will never like the workouts might be the thing you need to hear that motivates you. They cover the Ozempic lunch problem, stage fright, why normies need a program as much as people who struggle with addiction, how Stasia ended up living in Greece, what it means to forgive yourself for the years you wasted, and what she’s learned about life from lifting weights.
