I've been thinking it might be funny if Sessions does decide to run for his seat again because it seems to me that if Repub voters love Trump (as they do) and Trump hates Sessions (as he certainly seems to), ol' Jeffie might have a disappointing result. Although it'd be far better if he just ceased to exist.

Jeff Sessions is NOT Vegeta. If anyone, Sessions is Krillin, because both are bald and both suck.

Trump lost the nomination to Romney though

Are you a real head? Did you listen to the episode from the first few months of this shit where we talked about extreme haunted houses? Do you know what a boo scare is, you sicko? Well guess what, it's time for round 2. Miss Violet Faraday joins us to discuss Hulu's new take-down documentary on legal torture enthusiast Russ McKamey, and its parallels to our respective worlds.

Jeff Struggle Sessions w/ Leslie Lee III

bonus: Matt talks about being an "insufferable" Civil War History nerd when he was in middle school. https://www.patreon.com/posts/22742080 Related bonus: Matt Karp, who will be joining Matt Christman for our live  taping Civil War History-themed Katie Halper Show (date, TBD)talks to me about why the Dems are  "handcuffing themselves before the battle".
Matt talks about fascism, pseudo-woke gatekeepers, how and why Chapo appeals to the audience it does, and how the Left can maybe win. He also trashes some really stupid and counterproductive liberal hot takes like "economic anxiety doesn't influence people's politics," universal and class-based programs are only good for white people etc. He posits that for fascism to be here, we'd need a more robust Left, which we don't have at the moment. We also reminisce about the live Katie Halper Show taping with Chapo Trap House, which was the first time Matt met Felix in person, and which Matt still considers "one of the best" times of his life.

Matt Christman on the history of fascism & the liberal hot takes that enable Trump

Focus groups have long-been derided by the left, right, and center for watering down culture and reducing creative and political endeavors to dull, show-of-hand reductionism. 

But what if focus groups – which first arose from socialist experiments in 1920s Vienna – are not inherently bad? What if they've simply been exploited by the capitalist class and could, potentially, have much to offer a left-wing, democratic vision of the world?  

We are joined by author and professor Liza Featherstone to discuss the problems and potential of the much-maligned, but often scapegoated, focus group.

News Brief: Consumer Society and the Curation of Culture

We're told the world is getting better all the time. In January, The New York Times' Nick Kristof explained "Why 2017 Was the Best Year in Human History." The same month, Harvard professor and Bill Gates' favorite optimist Steven Pinker lamented (in a special edition of Time magazine guest edited by - who else? - Bill Gates) the “bad habits of media... bring out the worst in human cognition”. By focusing so much on negative things, the theory goes, we are tricked into thinking things are getting worse when, in reality, it's actually the opposite. 

For the TEDtalk set, that the world is awesome and still improving is self-evidently true - just look at the data. But how true is this popular axiom? How accurate is the portrayal that the world is improving we so often seen in sexy, hockey stick graphs of upward growth and rapidly declining poverty? And how, exactly, are the powers that be "measuring" improvements in society?

On this episode, we take a look at the ideological project of telling us everything's going swimmingly, how those in power cook the books and spin data to make their case for maintaining the status quo, and how The Neoliberal Optimism Industry is, at its core, an anti-intellectual enterprise designed to lull us into complacency and political impotence.

Our guest is Dr. Jason Hickel.

Episode 58: The Neoliberal Optimism Industry

F-22 flyovers, 160-foot flags draped across the playing field, full color guards, camouflage uniforms, The Star-Spangled Banner, God Bless America, Support The Troops Nights, special perks for vets.

What is the origin of the runaway military worship so ingrained in our sports? How did our professional baseball and football leagues become so infused to our military state and what can fans of these sports do to deconstruct and pushback against the forces of jingoism and military fetishizing? 

We are joined by Professor Robert Elias.

Episode 59 - National Pastimes: Mindless Militarism in American Sports

In SFTN's inaugural episode, Jess and David pick apart the first Democratic debate with Alex Ptak and Jeremy Hammond, who were so drunk they wanted to start spiting on cats. People say they want a candidate they could drink a beer with, we aim to show why that's a terrible idea.
