re: the CIA as the American SS this is how the CIA agent who oversaw Operation Cyclone saw the CIA according to the book Charlie Wilson's War (the movie financed by Pierre Omydiar did not include this)
“John J. McCloy”… this is probably silly but IIRC, I think one of the bad guys involved in making the bio weapon in Mission Impossible 2 was named, “John C. McCloy”.
Turned me on to this band Gold & Youth. They good.
Awesome song, the piano, I want more of the piano
Boy still got it
I just started the episode, so my apologies if Michael eventually names the two recent articles that advocate for an explicit return to Gladio, but could anyone provide the links?
Open your eyes.
Great to hear you back. German industry is still very centralized and government-adjacent — main reason why I can’t understand their current fuel/Econ policies.
Bayer purchased Monsanto in 2018, imo a huge deal people didn’t rly talk about that much. Isn’t it fun for the grandchild company of IG Farben to control the entire us corn industry :)
Hard to argue against the profit potential in selling both gyphosate *and* cancer drugs.
That song almost made me start sobbing.
Real return to form here, incredible summary of your work thusfar
Glad you're back in action!
Yeah, the lack of regulation enforcement/workers comp pay outs in dick-sucking factories is atrocious. A buddy of mine was running to the next dick (not "technically" allowed, but they get paid per-dick and the owners don't care) and slipped on a used condom, sliding 30ft onto a mis-placed loading ramp, back-flipping 3 times then face-first into the cum trough where he drowned to death. The family had to sell his body to a Harvard grad student to make rent, so all we had at his funeral was the death-mask of dried cum they peeled off his face. I'm tearing up thinking about it now. Again and again, I just keep coming back to one thing: who the fuck brought a CONDOM to a dick-sucking factory!
I believe Ms. Karrine "Superhead" Steffans will offer you a couple of candidates in her published works
Listened to Dream Baby, in love with this band now
This was a chaser par excellence after having just finished the Great Heroin Coup ❤️
Good ep!!!
didnt S&C help write the Treaty of Versailles?
Great ep! Very clear. While the "deep dive into IG Farben as lens through which to see American absorption of 3rd Reich into 4th" is sure to be awesome, a Paninaro-style list of other examples would also be fun. You said something like "it would take hours to list them all" but honestly this just piques the curiosity. Good song!
this is about to be a wild birthday listen
MICHAEL thank you for your dick-sucking factory injury which brought me the birthday joy the titular N*zis probably? will not
Fucking incredible episode. Glad to hear you firing on all cylinders. The recent True Anons and the shoutouts on Chapo seems like the perfect time for such a triumphant comeback. I hope you and your ideas get the credit and recognition they deserve.
Thanks, Michael! Even though this horrible fucking knowledge is depressing as hell, you make it fun and...well, joyous. Take care and I hope your jaw starts feeling better soon.
Coming back strong!
To quote ’70s DJ Tom Savarese: "All day long. All night strong."
I love it. I'm vibrating. I'm rotating Nazi chemical corporations in my mind. I'm seeing the face of God. I'm shitting on the floor.
It’s finally here 😈
FUCK YEAH DUDE!
fantastic episode! really great research and i love the interlock analysis!!
You sound great, bud. Great ep
Highman talks a lot about Teagle and Standard Oil of NJ in his book Trading with the Enemy
Just woke up and still not over the Nazis inventing plastics, ty for the eternal wisdom Michael.
Glad we're back to light hearted topics like ww3 and the 4th Reich it was getting a little dark for a while there. Have you listened to return of the repressed? He shouted out your 4th Reich concept in one of the Jim Jones episodes
a few years ago when you said the cold war might as well be the ongoing third world war it really helped me make sense of the seeming randomness of imperial cruelty. take care and thanks for bringing this thread of thought to people.
He's lying. I haven't seen him at the Dick Sucking Factory (DSF) since early 2020. (Coworker)
How come you see me at the club but I don't see you at the Dick Sucking Factory
Yes... ha ha ha... YES! Back in the very heart of your wheelhouse!
you’re sounding so much better dude, thrilled to see another episode so soon. You rock
Incredible episode. Thank you
I don’t know if you’re feeling much better but you sound great. Thanks for the pod Michael, you’re my favorite parasocial friend
It's weird even for me to hear myself now that my "public voice," for almost 5 years, has been the dope drawl of my junk + sedatives + booze death cocktail. I'm glad it's not worse!
Anyone who finds the IG Farben stuff interesting will probably enjoy the book Blitzed: Drugs in the Third Reich. Its a bit pop history and hearsay at times but it does a really good job of outlining the (imo underdiscussed) role of Pervitin (meth) in Nazi society and military operations. Basically everyone was cranked the fucked out, they put the stuff in candy bars.
Love this guys podcasts so much. Just finished night shift and having a macdonalds breakfast listening in 👍👍👍
A fourth reich episode? I guess I'm staying up past bedtime tonight
Glad you found the song, Mike! WE'RE BRINGING JOYYYY🎶
Clocking out at the racism factory to clock in at the dick sucking factory.
Coming here after yet another unhinged meltdown… hit me
hell yeah dude
