DW Live from D.C.


It's been about a month since Donald Trump was sworn into office and they've already begun stripping the country of copper wiring, slashing a multitude of government agencies and attempting to facilitate large scale deregulation. This has led to some pretty absurd mistakes by the administration. Like when they fired a sizable chunk of the department of energy, only to attempt to scramble to rehire a group of nuclear safety workers only to realize that they didn’t actually have these worker’s contact information, as they no longer had access to their government email accounts. It appears that no one is at the wheel right now. You are being run by a kakistocracy, or rule by the worst, although given that the vice president and reddit billionaire shadow president both clearly have browsed 4chan too much, it seems more like a “kekistocracy” at the moment. 

Liv, Travis, and Jake discuss the lies that are flying out of DOGE and Elon Musk, the consequences of massive regulatory capture, the Trump admin’s plans to declassify old documents, and what r/conspiracy thinks about the new, "uncensored" version of ChatGPT.

The Kekistocracy (E312)

פתחי וזמרי בעם 23-02-25

*Air Horn* In episode 22, we talk to Vic Berger the vine auteur who has created the definitive portrait of the 2016 election and look back at some of the most classic moments he's helped to immortalize: Jeb and the Moose, Martin O'Malley the Lifetime movie villian, Huckabee wet ribs, Trump *Air Horn* the bully, Ted Cruz's Jay Leno impression and general Eldritch horror.  Plus, Bakker Buckets and Jimmy Fallon's death rattle on the Tonight Show.

In the second half, we do a reading from "The Hobo Koran" aka John Kasich's first book "Courage is Contagious, and dive into the Chilcot Report and uncover the hidden connection between the War in Iraq and Michael Bay. Finally, we pay tribute to friend of the show Ross Douthat by way of Ridley Scott's masterpiece 'Blade Runner.'

Episode 22 - The Trap Is A MESS Feat. @VicBergerIV (7/11/16)

Update: This episode went offline for a little while last night after Brace got in contact with concerns about his security. We wanted to play things safe and took it down, but now it's back up. 

A conversation with @PissPigGranddad.

Episode 82 - War Is Heck feat. @PissPigGranddad (2/13/17)

We open with a struggle session and own Felix for being too much of an actual dirtbag. The rest of the episode is our positive review of DC Comics' Wonder Woman, why neoconservatives love it, why Lebanon really banned it, and the missed opportunity of making it in the image of the original super horned-up creator. Amber named this episode.

Episode 119 - Bating For Gadot (6/25/17)

Unhappy 4th of Ju-LIE to the United Snakes Of Amerikkka. We talk about Jake Tapper credulously helping Felix steal valor, Matt's family reunion, Joe Scarborough's 9/11 mixtape, Jon Chait's latest turd, Dissent magazine urging you not to dissent, and a reading series of Jeff Jacoby sans Caleb.

Episode 121 - These Things I Believe (7/4/17)

Matt, Will & Chris sum up the aftermath of the midterm elections, defend Western civilization from those who would destroy it, and check in on insufferable public intellectual Bernard Henri Levy's one twat show.
