Join journalist Anthony Mansuy as he recounts wild experiences from CPAC, highlighting everything from the bizarre Proudcoin cryptocurrency to the chaotic behavior of the Proud Boys. His firsthand accounts delve into the darkly comedic absurdities of far-right activism and the surreal atmosphere of the event. Listen in as he navigates interviews, all while reflecting on the political climate post-January 6 and sharing personal anecdotes that reveal the strangeness of modern political gatherings.

There are these two big landfills up in north St. Louis. One is called the West Lake Landfill, and it is packed full of radioactive waste from the Manhattan Project. There’s hosing and tarps covering these huge sections of fields. It looks like a weird golf course from overhead, or a kind of sore in the land. It deserves to look this way because this nuclear waste site is the end product of a dozen botched techniques for nuclear disposal. How did this radioactive waste wind up in the landfill? Why does the answer involve “men of the Veiled Prophet’s court?” Why did the government ignore the health impacts of the site until long after concerned moms started organizing on Facebook? Can our minds even grasp the scale of our destruction of Earth, or are all of these events the byproduct of “hyperobjects” that defy comprehension by limited mortals? Journalist Devin O’ Shea brings us a sad and spooky saga of radioactivity in Missouri.

Welcome to the Gaylord National Resort & Convention Center. Your companions are two Frenchmen: Julian Feeld and Anthony Mansuy. They attended the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) so you didn’t have to. Enjoy the CPAC International Summit where leaders like Liz Truss (UK), Eduardo Bolsonaro (Brazil), Morse Tan (South Korea), Steve Bannon (1933 Germany), and representatives from Japan, Australia, Hungary, Mexico, and Israel gathered to plot a far-right international coalition and whine about how their Big Beautiful Boys have been so poorly treated. Join Julian and Anthony as they run into JFK Jr (who is alive and well) as well as a whole lot of January 6 rioters, including one that still has a lot of love for QAnon. This is the first of a two-part episode based on our latest field reporting in Washington DC.

The savior of the West is an anime-loving, missile-launching, mullet-dawning, Hawaiian shirt and cargo shorts wearing 32-year old man in flip-flops. Travis and Brad punish Liv and Julian with the story of Palmer Luckey, the once Silicon Valley wunderkind VR pioneer of the Oculus Rift. His support of Donald Trump’s first presidential run got him fired from Facebook and shunned from the performatively liberal tech industry. The irresponsibly sensational press coverage that followed created the vengeance and spit-fueled defense tech mogul he is today. He’s now on a mission to save the west from autocratic dictators and “woke orthodoxy”, one autonomous drone swarm at a time.

It's been about a month since Donald Trump was sworn into office and they've already begun stripping the country of copper wiring, slashing a multitude of government agencies and attempting to facilitate large scale deregulation. This has led to some pretty absurd mistakes by the administration. Like when they fired a sizable chunk of the department of energy, only to attempt to scramble to rehire a group of nuclear safety workers only to realize that they didn’t actually have these worker’s contact information, as they no longer had access to their government email accounts. It appears that no one is at the wheel right now. You are being run by a kakistocracy, or rule by the worst, although given that the vice president and reddit billionaire shadow president both clearly have browsed 4chan too much, it seems more like a “kekistocracy” at the moment. Liv, Travis, and Jake discuss the lies that are flying out of DOGE and Elon Musk, the consequences of massive regulatory capture, the Trump admin’s plans to declassify old documents, and what r/conspiracy thinks about the new, "uncensored" version of ChatGPT.

“The Tsuki Project” was a once-active community of likeminded 4chan anons who longed to be transported into a better world. And they believed that by participating in this community formed around the promises and lore of someone named Tsuki, they could enter into this better world after they died. This is a community that first formed in 2017 and has since dissipated into the online ether. It’s hard to say what the Tsuki Project was exactly. It has been described as anime suicide cult, a digital version of Heaven’s Gate, a hoax, a piece of interactive fiction, an Alternate Reality Game, or just a group of lonely, depressed people who were sucked into one person’s maladative daydreams. It was probably a swirl of all of those things. What exactly happened has to be pieced together from archived imageboard posts, websites that only survive as zip files, anime Wikis, and leaked screenshots from Discord servers. This is the story of the Tsuki project based on the surviving records. Subscribe for $5 a month to get all the premium episodes: http://www.patreon.com/QAA Editing by Corey Klotz. Theme by Nick Sena.

Take a break from hearing about Elon Musk’s pernicious influence in U.S. politics to learn about Elon Musk’s pernicious influence in U.K. politics. Annie Kelly brings us an update on the state of the far right across the pond. Specifically, we learn about political party Reform UK, and its relationship to the UK’s two most prominent far-right figures. Those figures are: Nigel Farage - Mr Brexit himself and Reform’s leader, and Tommy Robinson, the perpetually re-imprisoned anti-Islamic agitator. Elon Musk spent weeks on X boosting the views of Tommy Robinson. This has caused some consternation for Farage, who has tried to distance himself from Robinson’s explicit ethnonationalism. This episode features contributions from Joe Mulhall, director of research at Hope Not Hate, the UK's largest antifascist organization.

It’s a movie, it’s a show, it’s an online marketplace. After a nuke is detonated in downtown Los Angeles, a group of survivalists must work together in “Homestead,” the latest Movie / Online Shop from the patriots who brought you ‘Sound of Freedom.’ Everything in the movie is for sale, and so are all four hosts' souls after watching it. Julian has somehow emerged unscathed, fully accepting that what used to be called “Motion Pictures” are now motion online catalogues. Travis takes issue with some of the survival strategies depicted in the film.

The hosts dive into the alarming rise of QAnon influences within American politics. They share critical insights on Trump's controversial cabinet picks and the implications of a potential Guantanamo expansion. Discussions surrounding conspiracy theories, executive orders, and the politicization of health narratives reveal unsettling trends. The hosts balance humor with serious critiques on how misinformation shapes public perception and governance while exploring broader political repercussions, including the effects of tariffs on marginalized communities.

Since Trump has been reelected, we follow up with QAnon personalities both large and small. How did the Q Shaman celebrate his pardon? What is Roseanne, the first celebrity to endorse QAnon, doing nowadays? Why does Michael Flynn compare himself to a “striker” on the soccer field? Since the storm wasn’t upon us during the first Trump administration, will the storm, now, be upon us? We explore those questions and more in what is be our most bleeped episode to date.
