    "I SHOULD BE DEAD" with Matt Lieb (Ep 240)
    Jul 17 2024
    The assassination attempt on Trump is nearly out of the news cycle, as the shooter's identity (registered Republican) and weapon of choice (AR-15) doesn't quite fit the right's preferred narrative. Meanwhile Biden calls for a cooling of rhetoric, pulls his campaign ads, and all but admits defeat. Comedian and husband Matt Lieb joins Francesca to talk about the real systemic sources of political violence in the United States, and bemoan the Democrats' defeatism as evidenced by Biden's stubborn commitment to lose in November. Then one-time Never Trumper JD Vance is now Trump's running mate, and along with him comes millions of tech bro billionaire dollars to help out a campaign in need. JD is perhaps the perfect lying craven opportunist to whitewash a second Trump administration's most anti-Democratic plans.

    Jul 13 2024
    What's it like working in a boy's club, i.e. being a woman working in stand up. Comedian Amy Miller joins Francesca to discuss how the sausage fest is made, fighting to be paid equally and sometimes working around predators. Is there a rightward reactionary shift in comedy, and is there a new backlash to the backlash?

  • The New Corporate Ripoff with John Iadarola & David Dayen (Ep 239)

    The New Corporate Ripoff with John Iadarola & David Dayen (Ep 239)
    Jul 10 2024
    Biden digs himself into a bigger hole with every media appearance as Democrats circle the wagons to protect him... yes even Bernie and AOC. John Iadarola, host of The Damage Report, joins to discuss why Blue MAGA is deluding themselves about Biden being able to beat Trump. Then, corporations have seized on their record pandemic profits to further gouge the American people, using new algorithms and schemes to rip us off. David Dayen of The American Prospect Magazine joins to explain how they're getting away with it and what's being done to stop it. Finally a very NSFW edition of "Fash or Smash", which right winger ... would you?
