150: The GOP is Libbity Bibbity Blowing It feat. Nikki McCann Ramírez 19.10.2026

The GOP is spending big enough on TV ads that you’d think they were in a strong position headed into the midterms. The opposite is true. They are lost in a sea of dogshit and running out of scapegoats to attack. To the average swing voter, they have now entered…  the Libbity Bibbity Zone of the terminally insufferable. On this episode, Jared and Mike are joined by  Nikki McCann Ramírez , political...

Picture it: You are in a secluded strip of fancy-pants military housing. In the distance, a Bose stereo pumps out an EDM remix of “Ring of Fire.” A beleaguered Benihana chef squirts sake into Doug Burgum’s wiggling, groaning, drunken mouth. A mechanical bull launches an unattended seven-year-old boy into the air, his landing spot out of sight. You are now in Katie Miller’s domain, partying with th...

146: Taxpayer-Funded White Nationalism feat. Greg Sargent 05.10.2026

Everyone, likely including the Trump administration itself, understands the racist roots of the word "remigration." Before it appeared in US politics, white nationalists coined the term and amplified it throughout Europe. So if everyone knows this, why has our government chosen to publicly associate with it? The answer may be as simple as "Stephen Miller." Jared and Mike contin...

142: The GOP's Anti-Muslim Midterm Strategy feat. Wajahat Ali 21.09.2026

In March, Rep. Andy Ogles declared that Muslims didn't belong in American society. Since then, the broader GOP has leaned harder and harder into anti-Muslim scapegoating, using the same playbook they used to fear monger about transgender people in 2022 and migrant "caravans" in 2018. Jared and Mike are joined by Wajahat Ali to discuss the surge of anti-Muslim bigotry in US politics,...

138: One Year of Kirkification feat. Juliet Jeske, Abner Hauge, Haley Orion, Will Sommer, Charles Star & Madeline Peltz 07.09.2026

A year after a bullet to the throat killed Charlie Kirk, the TPUSA founder is less a flesh-and-blood person who died on a college campus in Utah than a symbol people fight over. For some, Kirk is the embodiment of patriotism and the threat of left-wing violence. For others, he's a racist podcaster the White House tried to force the country to mourn. For others still, he's the face of pure nihilism...

130: What to Expect From Election Denialists in 2026 Midterms feat. Alex Kaplan & Kayla Gogarty 10.08.2026

Everyone knows it's coming. The MAGA movement has spent years claiming that any election where Republican candidates lose must be fraudulent, and its top media figures have spent every election cycle since 2020 stoking doubts about the integrity of US democracy.
