This week, we talked mostly about the cruelty and stupidity of immigration enforcement in Iowa. We also checked in with the state of next year's race for governor, and began to redefine "common sense."

206 - Fart in a Skillet (7/13/2025)

Aero One Feat. Suno - UTNL (Original Mix)WIP

🔥 "Kill Your God" is a blistering slab of old-school death metal drenched in the filthy, chainsaw guitar tones of early '90s Sweden. Channeling the unholy energy of bands like Entombed, Pestilence, and Grave, this track delivers relentless riffing, crushing d-beat grooves, and guttural vocals that tear through the mix like a buzzsaw through bone.

From the HM-2 soaked guitar walls to the raw, unpolished production, "Kill Your God" pays tribute to the primal fury of the Stockholm scene — while injecting a dose of blasphemous rage and anti-authoritarian venom. It's ugly. It's loud. It's everything death metal was meant to be.

Recommended if you like: Left Hand Path, Consuming Impulse, or the sound of the apocalypse being recorded in a sweaty garage.

TEASER - Doughbrain Book Club: Hard-Wired #2 (7/23/2025)

Presenting a view of fascism as a complex power network that plays out on scales both large and small, Alexander Menrisky, author of Everyday Ecofascism, shows how extremist sentiments have crept into everyday language, stories, and ideas. He illuminates ecofascism’s narrative patterns and their easy permeation of environmentalist discourses, from back-to-the-land movements to the resurgence of psychedelic drugs, food localism, and pandemic politics. Here, Menrisky is joined in conversation with April Anson and Kyle Boggs. 



Alexander Menrisky is assistant professor of English at the University of Connecticut. He is author of Everyday Ecofascism: Crisis and Consumption in American Literature and Wild Abandon: American Literature and the Identity Politics of Ecology.

April Anson is assistant professor of English at the University of Connecticut. Anson writes and teaches at the intersection of the environmental humanities, Indigenous and American studies, and political theory. Anson is cofounder of the Anti-Creep Climate Initiative and coauthor of Against the Ecofascist Creep.

Kyle Boggs is associate professor of rhetoric and community engagement in the Department of Humanities and Cultural Studies at Boise State University and author of Recreational Colonialism and the Rhetorical Landscapes of the Outdoors.
