In a ruling that has shocked most legal observers and just about everyone else, the far-right Supreme Court has ruled that a President can basically just... commit crimes. This is nuts. And it's hardly the only crazy thing this court has done lately. In this episode, I explore that, and the way in which the behavior of this court should focus the minds of voters this fall.

#189 Abortion in American Politics with Jessica Waters

Sample of this week's Patreon episode. Donald tries to convince women he is their white knight, New York City has Gotham City's problems, the Harris campaign shuns Al Smith and Marion looks ahead to the VP debate.  Even the massive tech issues we had this morning with this episode couldn't stop us getting you the exclusive Patreon weekly instalment of Irishman In America. We even managed to find the time to squeeze in a listener letter from Jack Ryan. With only 38 days until America goes to the polls both campaigns are zeroing in on the undecided voters in the swing states. Harris's attempt to look like a gun owning "get off my lawn" hardliner hit a bum note with Oprah while her latest ad from the Lincoln Project begs voters to get over "the woman thing". We look at what the polls say and whether they have been adjusted to be more reliable than in previous campaigns. You can find the full episode and weekly episode on www.patreon.com/irishmanabroad

Irishman In America Podcast

Irishman In America - 38 Days To Go! (Sample)

Marion McKeone asks what will move needle in the minds of American swing voters? The VP Debate definitely didn’t do it. Jack Smith damning 165 page filing on January 6th doesn’t seem to have done it? Could the impact of Israel’s attacks on Iran make the difference? If that impact is at the gas pump you can bet Americans will notice. This week on the podcast we look back at an intense week on the campaign trail. You can find the full episode and weekly episode of this podcast on www.patreon.com/irishmanabraod - let Marion be your guide for the final 30 days of the campaign and beyond.

DEAD DOVE EPISODE 6: SEX Rollercoaster

In this episode, Matt discusses an urban legend with ties to both Evangelical Christianity and late 1980s right-wing politics.

90. Well To Hell

Today, unfortunately, American citizens against their better judgment, voted to elect Trump as our president. Further, this event, insultingly, took place on Martin Luther King Jr. Day—a day meant to honor a man who championed equality and justice for black Americans. To see the rise of Trump, flanked by his band of crony tech-bros—Zuckerberg, Bezos, and Musk—on such a day feels like a cruel mockery of the progress Dr. King fought for. 

Together, this American oligarchy promotes a reality where hate speech masquerades as "free speech" and the myth of meritocracy props up cis-straight-white-males and affluent individuals (including women indoctrinated to uphold this narrative) above everyone else. Have you watched Star Wars? Have you read “A Handmaids Tail”? They parade this so-called "golden age" while leading our democracy into decay. 

In this unsettling time, I felt compelled to revisit the song "Everything Counts" by Depeche Mode. This pop song is a critique of global capitalism and highlights the terrors of a system that prioritizes profit and power over humanity.

“Confidence taken in / By a suntan and a grin.”

When Depeche Mode wrote this lyric, they were describing a businessman on vacation—a man who, let’s be real, doesn’t truly have to work. He can travel the world — relax on the beach. Today, this image eerily mirrors the embodiment of Trump and his ilk.

“The grabbing hands grab all they can / All for themselves, after all.

It’s a competitive world”

(but only for those without the wealth to pay their way to the top).

“Everything counts in large amounts.”

These "large amounts" could represent our social capital or the hard-earned money drained from everyday Americans by the billionaire class—an illness in our democracy. These financially privilieged individuals should pay the same taxes as everyone else, yet they hoard wealth at the expense of society.

As Klypi, a persona I embody, I want to channel the hypocrisy I witness and confront the evils plaguing our reality. Through this character, I hope to amplify a voice of resistance and rally those who dream of a more egalitarian, open-minded, and accepting world.

Through fiction, through play, and through my love of art, I plan to do this.
