Kmele

Against a blood-red backdrop, President Biden gives an urgent campaign speech, warning that America is becoming semi-Nazi Germany, Donald Trump is partial Hitler, and our almost democracy is on the precipice of kinda revolution. The lads watch the speech and say lots of really smart things. But before they discuss the end of America, Kmele forces a conversation about Michael Jackson’s Thriller. He has a theory. Moynihan and Welch are…skeptical. This is a public episode. If you'd like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit www.wethefifth.com/subscribe

Kmele and Moynihan, hosts of The Fifth Column podcast, share their experiences as journalists and discuss topics such as footnotes authenticity, Vice's decline, recognizing plagiarism, and their evolution to anarcho-capitalist libertarians. They also talk about the lack of intellectual freedom in academia and emphasize the importance of free expression and maintaining a free society.
