Our solution to the Hormuz crisis is for some guys in boat captain hats to do Pickett’s Charge. All of this is very necessary, according to an A.I. George Washington, I told to say that. We did the Vietnam Airlift to with one private jet to rescue a TikTok dogwalker. Then we get into all the unforeseeable (very foreseeable) impacts the war is having, including that we’re kinda paying Russia to help Iran.

This week, we begin with the number one political issues facing Texas: Sharia Law and lies about porn addiction and organic honey. Then we get into the beginning of our most recent non-war with Iran, news of which was broken by a couple drunk guys overhead at a seafood restaurant by TMZ, and things have only gotten dumber since then. Why’d we attack? The White House will have to get back to you on that.

The Olympics turned into the hockey team having a Take Your FBI Director to Work Day. Then we talk about the MAHA backlash against Trump trying to make all the children’s water fountains spray Roundup. Finally, A..I. CEOs keep saying insane things that reveal they want us all dead, then cry when we don’t just lay down in our graves. Weird. Join us.

Portugal has MAGA now, down to even A.I.-generated xenophobic rap videos, and we’re sorry. Then we discuss the nationwide widespread pushback against new ICE detention facilities due to an alliance of wokes and the most undefeatable of American political forces, NIMBYs. After that we bring on Corey Ryan Forrester to walk us through a hilarious mayoral scandal that’s rocked his small town.

 Small towns across America are being flooded by plans for massive ICE detention centers, which Andrea Pitzer, in One Long Night, describes as concentration camps. In this episode of Good Skews, Producer Matt talks with rural organizer and former state House candidate Megan Kocher about what’s unfolding in Northeastern Pennsylvania and across the country, why warehouse sites are spreading into small towns with little local input, and how recent reporting on ICE misconduct raises urgent oversight concerns. We also discuss what real organizing looks like beyond protests — from building ICEwatch networks and mutual aid systems to leveraging zoning boards, local officials, and elections to slow or stop detention projects before they take root.

We talk about the various freakouts surrounding the Super Bowl, then the various freakouts surrounding the Olympics. Then we get into the continuing fallout around the Epstein documents and how officials in other countries are facing consequences. Not in America though, because no one here did anything they could be ashamed of, because no one has shame.

The White House seems to be considering arming the Brave Mujahadeen of Alberta, Canada. Then we get into the latest Epstein document dump, the hilarious conspiracy theorists’ reaction to them, and also how Ol’ Jeff’s schemes seem to have been carried on after he was dead. Probably a coincidence. And yeah, the thing that’s in the episode title: Epstein tried to fund a biological weapon that would make women horny. Join us.

Unfortunately, we had very little time to discuss the latest rapper to try to become a LinkedIn Mar-a-Lago guy because of the weekend’s events in Minneapolis. It seems perhaps we’ve reached the limits of lying about: things we can all see, the sequence of events in linear time, and the plain meaning of third-grade vocabulary words. Also, the people who defrauded Kyle Rittenhouse’s GoFundMes think guns are bad now. Confusing times.

In this episode of Good Skews, Matt Hildreth sits down with comedians Drew Morgan and DJ Lewis to talk about what it means to help people when everything feels like it’s on fire, and why “mutual aid” is about showing up, plugging in, and supporting the helpers who are already doing the work.

The conversation moves from ICE raids and neighbors doing laundry in solidarity, to local fights over land, water, and data centers, to the left’s tendency to over-academicize politics.
