Ep 5. Bernie Runs the Table (feat George Schmitz)

Bernie just destroyed everyone else in Nevada and now this is really happening. The media establishment has still been clinging to the desperate hope that perhaps the Sanders campaign’s momentum had diminished somehow, downplaying his victories in Iowa and New Hampshire as much as possible, but after Saturday it became apparent to everyone that there is an unstoppable movement growing in America that is about to take over the Democratic Party and that every single assumption media gatekeepers had been making for years about Bernie and his supporters was all completely wrong. It made for an incredibly surreal night of cable news, so Rob, Jordan and guest George Schmitz break that down as well as what it was like on the ground in Nevada and what this is going to mean for this primary, the 2020 election and america in general.Subscribe to the podcast on iTunes here.Or on Spotify HERE.

Ep 4: Sin City Showdown (with Kyle Kulinski)

Hey everyone, The Insurgents are back for another episode. Jordan is actually in Nevada right now so this is Rob writing this blurb for the first time. I feel very powerful. I don’t really have anywhere interesting to go with this bit though, unfortunately. The important thing is that we’ve got Kyle Kulinski on the show this week to preview the upcoming Nevada Caucuses and weigh in on everything else that’s been going on in the primary. Again, just to reiterate, it is only Kyle coming on the show today, and that’s all. No one else. Hey, by the way, I’m sorry you could hear my son coughing or talking or running around like a dozen times in the previous episode. Normally I would have edited that stuff out but I kinda had my hands full and wanted to get the episode out in a timely manner. These are the kinds of decisions I have to make as part of my podcasting dad lifestyle. OK, that’s all.Subscribe to the podcast on iTunes here.Or on Spotify HERE. This is a public episode.
