I say this is the best and only US politics podcast in the world for a joke — but for real, nobody is doing it like us.

It’s info dense, it’s funny, it’s pacy, we’ve got a DJ hosting it, there’s a cat. If you’re interested in US politics and don’t listen you’ve got a brain worm

I’m sorry! In my defence I stand by it being very good — but it’s horrible isn’t it?

"Hegseth's message to the American army is, We want you to become like the Russian army.”

A chilling but fascinating conversation with someone who understands the truth about the balance of power.

I replied to you politely, I'm unsure as to why you're deciding to be so negative. The podcast is about dudes and the character is called the dude – it's really not that deep! Listen to it and you'll be able to know more – bluesky posts don't contain all that much nuance.

Knew this was a controversial pick – but the pod doesn't say all "dudes" are conservative or necessarily that being a dude is always a bad thing. There are some positive dudes in the world / some positive aspects of dudeness (on occasion)

How has Trump turned US politics into a cult of masculinity despite not being very manly?

On the last American Friction podcast, @jeffjarvis.bsky.social discusses the media and politics quagmire America has put itself in. He's refreshingly blunt and spot-on with pretty much everything.

And, alas, we're both very pessimistic about the future of it all.

Trump fans got real mad about an escalator stopping while he was on it. Did they reveal how he is... too old to be president? 🤔
