A real treat this time, as Daniel and Jack are joined by special guest Sophie from Mars to talk about Caleb Maupin and the wider 'Conspiracy Left', i.e. those left-wingers (or pseudo left-wingers) who style themselves anti-imperialists (etc) and who embrace every bad cause from Putin/Assad-apologia to transphobia to conspiracist antisemitism.  Sophie knows and understands this subject backwards and forwards.  Her YouTube documentary video Conspiracy on the Left was an instant classic when it was released earlier this year, and she has lots of other videos in which (with others) she goes over Maupin's cultic conferences, his reactionary politics, his paranoid grudges, and his weird and patronising fascist screeds disguised as despatches from the new Lenin. A great chat about an important issue for the left to deal with.  And there is also, you will be unsurprised to learn, some laughing at the cringe of it all.

Jack welcomes special guest Annika Brockschmidt to the show.  Annika specialises in covering the far-right and tells Jack all about the recent German government swoop on those in the Reichsbürger movement who were planning 'Day X', a storming of the Bundestag and a takeover of the state.  We go over the context of the far-right in Germany, the composition and ideology of the Reichsbürgers, the coup plans, the structure of the conspiracy, the reaction in Germany, the connections with QAnon and the Sovereign Citizens, the context of 'Nuremberg 2.0' and the various strands of paranoid pandemic politics, etc.  A really fascinating episode, thanks to Annika's deep knowledge.

In this 'DVD extra', we are joined by our friend, super knowledgeable and insightful pop culture writer Holly B, who takes us sad old deeply-uncool men on a journey through the weird world and arcane lore of the artist formerly known as Kanye West and now known as "that guy who looooooves Hitler".  I don't know that we end up wiser exactly... but we certainly end up better informed and massively entertained.  Or at least we would be entertained if everything about this weren't so awful.   Show Notes: Please consider donating to help us make the show and stay ad-free and independent.  Patrons get exclusive access to at least one full extra episode a month plus all backer-only back-episodes.

What happens when one of the most famous recording artists in the world has a full divorced-dad-crisis and plummets into the abyss he's been dangling over for ages, the abyss of far-right, antisemitic, pro-Nazi conspiracy theories?  Well, now we know, because we've all been watching Ye (the artist formerly known as Kanye West) cart Nick Fuentes and Milo Yiannopoulos around with him like his new crew of homies and hype men as he dines with Trump, does interviews with Tim Pool and Alex Jones, and chats with Gavin McInnes (founder of the Proud Boys) in what looks like a torture basement from cheap kink porn, all the while loudly declaring that Hitler did nothing wrong and the Jews are out to get him. This episode focuses less on Ye himself and more on the Right's varied reactions to his odyssey of enthusiastic newly-converted-nazi antics.  We check in with, amongst others, Nick Fuentes himself, Matt Walsh, and Elijah Schaffer.

In an episode recorded before Daryl Brooks was convicted on all counts, Daniel tells Jack all about the disgusting ways in which the National Justice Party has exploited his crimes, and other victims of other crimes.  Coming to your town if you should be unlucky enough to suffer local crime committed by someone who happens to not be white.

At the start of the month, Daniel and Jack co-hosted a Twitter Space hangout with their friend, IDW-gadlfy podcaster Eiynah Mohammed-Smith (@NiceMangos).  We had a fun chat about all the silliness that right-wingers had been up to (Jordan weeping over incels to Piers Morgan, Matt Walsh freaking out over crystal flutes, Graham Linehan starting to doubt vaccines and climate change, Peter Thiel's 'Right Stuff' dating app, mermaids of colour, etc) and then took some questions from listeners.  Teddy Wilson (@reportbywilson), journalist and researcher and publisher of Radical Reports (@radicalreports) joined us too.  Fun start, more serious back half; altogether a fun show that we decided to put up for everyone here.

Special guest Rob from The Right Podcast (@TheRightPodcast) returns to tell Jack all about Stewart Rhodes and The Oath Keepers - seen like a rash all over American fascist activity from Ferguson to January 6th - with special attention to their deep roots and influences in the Tea Party explosion of the Obama era, the John Birch Society tradition, the Ron Paul Revolution, the Bundy saga, Waco and Ruby Ridge, and the US far-right tradition generally.
