146: Citizen Vigilante and the FILM CRIT FASH
I Don't Speak German
Daniel and Jack take a look at the scintillating film criticism of various fascists - including Jack Posobiec, the Thought Crime podcast, Jared Taylor, 'Paul Kersey', and Kevin DeAnna - in response to Uwe Boll's new piece of amateurish nazi hate propaganda Citizen Vigilante (Elon Musk's new favourite film).

News Roundup: Maine Character Syndrome - the Fall of Graham Platner
I Don't Speak German
Daniel and Jack convene for a news roundup ep on the downfall of (now former) Maine Democratic senatorial candidate Graham Platner. We talk about how things came to this pass, and how loads of the online 'progressive left' influencers who supported Platner have utterly disgraced themselves. We find some dark laughter around the edges of this story, but we take it very seriously. This episode goes to some perhaps surprisingly heartfelt places. Content warnings for discussions of sexual assault. Episode Notes: Politico article: Rebecca Watson: Kavernacle: Kavernacle / Samsen...

143: Michael Shermer interviews Douglas Murray and more
I Don't Speak German
In this long episode, we look at several interviews conducted by notorious 'skeptic' author Michael Shermer on his podcast and "shitty YouTube channel", as it was memorably described by Rebecca Watson... After an introductory discussion of Shermer and his... ahem... chequered history (to put it legally non-actionably), we boggle at the decidedly low-energy Mr Skepticism as he interviews psychologist of abuse and gaslighting Jennifer Fraser PhD about her book about abuse and gaslighting and her own history of being abused and gaslit, all without breaking a bead of sweat. This is Michael...

142: State Terrorism and Fascism, with MsEntropy
I Don't Speak German
Daniel and Jack are delighted to welcome back - after far too long an absence - the brilliant MsEntropy. We pick our guest's brains in a conversation about the complexities of the concept of terrorism, its relationship to national states, citizenship, and fascism, with special relevance to America in the grip of Trump, MAGA, and their apparatchiks. Amanda touches on recent events including the ICE / Border Patrol incursions, the under-reported Prarieland trial of protestors, and most especially the horribly topical issue of the US-Israeli military attack upon Iran.
