035: The Death of American Manhood

NOTE: This episode features an excerpt of an interview that included light criticism and mockery of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, who was fatally shot while speaking at a college campus on Sept. 10. That conversation was recorded on Sept. 4, before news of Kirk's death, and the rest of the episode was taped on Sept. 9. We will cover Kirk's death on Monday's episode.

Mike and Jared covered the far-right's latest obsession: the fatal stabbing of a Ukrainian woman in Charlotte, North Carolina. They also discussed "Chorus" and shared an excerpt of their conversation with Luke Savage about the secretive dark money dispenser paying pro-Democrat social media influencers as much as $8,000 per month. The guys close things out with another featured reading -- this one is about Philadelphia sports: "JACK POSOBIEC: The Phillies Karen and the death of American manhood — why we're losing our nation one surrender at a time."

Jared's album recommendation: John Mayer, Where the Light Is: John Mayer Live in Los Angeles, 2008
