Getting Hammered
Laissez-Faire Media
A sharp, funny politics podcast for people who want the news without the freakout.
Each week, Getting Hammered takes a hammer to the headlines, breaking down politics, media spin, and cultural meltdowns with skepticism and fun. Overcaffeinated and underprepared, moderately right and moderately reliable, we never take ourselves too seriously. But keep you informed on serious topics with no panic and no partisan loyalty tests. Just laughs, well-earned side-eye, and occasional libations.

Stolen Youth: The Book Interview with Bethany Mandel and Karol Markowicz
Occasionally, we gotta change the format around here to allow for in-depth interviews with some of our favorite people, who have written books. You’ve read these ladies in the New York Post and Deseret News, you’ve seen them on social media and in high-profile debates about Covid and education policy. They also consistently rank among the women MK would most like to start a compound with that would inevitably be raided by the feds for our wrong think. They’re moms, writers, and assertive leaders (stunning and brave, even) against the Woke indoctrination of children and takeover of many corners of culture. Questions?
