The Charlie Kirk Murder Hearings Circus feat. Abner Hauge and Haley Orion (E382)
Jake, Julian, Liv and Travis are joined by investigative journalists Abner Häuge and Haley Orion, who traveled to Provo, Utah, to cover the preliminary hearings for Tyler Robinson, the man accused of killing TPUSA founder Charlie Kirk. They report on the conspiracy circus outside the courthouse: Candace Owens fans camping overnight for fourteen public seats, TPUSA influencers begging their own audience to stick to the facts, and innocent bystanders being doxxed as part of theories involving an exploding microphone and the “Maroon Shirt Boys.” The group also examines the anti-trans narratives surrounding Robinson’s partner, the harassment of Hunter Kozak and other witnesses, and the struggle over Kirk’s legacy as the conspiracy machine runs without interruption.

Liv Liv Liv Agar!!!
I think expecting your Euclidean Geometry professor to thoughtfully address--or expecting he'd think you'd be comfortable with him addressing at all-- you talking to Charlie Kirk when he got shot in the throat is a bit much.
They both reached for the gun!!!
A former colleague of mine, posted on social media recently that her son was named the college chapter president of TPUSA. They're EVERYWHERE. 😬
The intro over Jake thing is getting to be a pretty good bit
Yo, you best protect ya neck -RZA

Ghosttheories is the name I chose while watching the QAA and GooseGang livestreams. Use it to this day. It's surreal hearing an unintentional name drop on a main ep.
Wait Jake, how would Elvis do the Charlie Kirk song?
Do marky mark please
two children under one while in an undergraduate program? Utah moment.
man that TP interview at the end really shows how seriously they should be taken (if it wasn't for the violent consequences of their actions)
Love the musical theatre, I learned the charlie kirk song and covered it to impress the friend who kept playing the song. Happy to coach Jake on the deep meaning of the lyrics so his next performance can be even better!
How is it that this is the second podcast on this topic I've listened to in the past week where the guest interjected some dismissal of the urgency of the genocide in Palestine into the conversation? And why are people even drawn to anti fascist/disinfo/extremism/conspiracy research if they have zero interest in stopping or even commenting on the most devastating expression of all these things? Shameful.
Do you have a timestamp? Didn't catch that one
I got the Mary Sunshine reference! 🙋🏼♀️
Its really depressing that almost 15 years after sandy hook, right wing media figures get to just personally attack random people with zero consequences. No lessons learned, no laws, the only thing thats changed is other people have realized how lucrative this all is
I was a bit dissappointed that this episode didn't go into the holes in the case against Robinson. The idea that the 30-06 didn't pass straight through, let alone remove his head is insane! https://youtu.be/dORI817YGzs
Its important to note that Kirk platformed alot of Christian evangelical anti-mormon rhetoric. Many people believe that the fatal attack on a mormon meeting house a few days after was partly motivated by the Kirk shooting. I think even though they're right wing the attitudes of the local authorities are probably pretty ambivalent.
Great episode.
Jake is like jazz. It’s about the things that *aren’t* it
I believe the last thing Kirk said was “counting gang violence?” He was about to start whatabouting and blame black people.
Great reporting! Haley you continue to be my favorite journalist in AZ, bless you for sticking to it despite your rage.
More shittimg on charlie kirk please. Such a vile POS
I love the anger in "AND TRAVIS VIEW" after the messy cold open 😄
My flags at half mast for charlie lol
Forget it Jake, it's Utahtown.
My teens don’t Rick Roll, they Charlie Roll. I. Know. Every. Word. Sort of gives me that late 70’s, early 80s Contemporary Christian Easter tunes feeling.
loving the loose cold opens 😂
the guy was given up by his own dad. who would do that?

When I die if I end up in the same room as Charlie Kirk, I'll know exactly where the fuck I'm at. And it's hot.
when I said "that's the nature of reality" at the same time 😳
Sorry but critical support to those professors giving zero acknowledgement that Charlie Kirk got shot. Can only hope that's how he's remembered, not at all.
I mean that's something that would be beneficial, but I think it's even better that his face is now a joke; it's a meme for kids on the internet to use as a reference to get a laugh out of others. Charlie wanted to be taken seriously his entire life, so for his visage to be boiled down to a signifier of meme culture is largely what his legacy will be to a section of the public. Many good, loving, and caring people will die and their names and faces will be lost to the passage of time - that is saddening to think about. But for Charlie, his funny looking face and a bad (albeit hilarious) AI song will remain. That's poetic justice in my book.
Counting or not counting gang violence? Charlie delivered his line and existed the stage. One of the best crisis actors to ever do it. Bravo Chuck.
Jake, thank you for keeping it because this intro has me WEAK 😂
Imagine having a baby in hospital and taking time from that to go and ask Charlie Kirk a question
The best intro to date.
Lowkirkenuinely excited for this coverage
This. This is my favorite thing ever. Thank you.
I am the one listener. Love Chicago
This makes 2
Corey made some tough decisions editing this one
clenching my teeth through the phrase "they said they use she/her pronouns"
Yeah if they have an interview with her saying she uses those pronouns…just use em
Wow, the autoQ is extremely telling. Those people are straight up psychopaths. They don't understand the concept of normal human relationships or even interactions. Everything to them is a battlefield, and all they do is identity which side you're on so they know who to attack. Normal people reach halfway, seeking common ground and understanding. But right wingers only see this as weakness, and an opportunity to push their attacks further. They're fucking ghouls.
this is not that is my fav segment
Jake has a point about how desensitized and conspiracy brained we are. All i can think about is tommy lee jones calling rip torn and asking why it is the MIB still need to wipe peoples memory anymore.
Oh Charlie… you continue to haunt us.
From hell where he belongs
more musical theater bits please
Okay, im not usually one to voice shame or accent shame (i myself have an embarrasingly thick texas accent) but who tf let a mudoken do the intro? Is julian using them as an extremely subtle anti capitalist statement???
Hell yeah
we are Liv Agar
