Name: Episode 318: B For Ebola by TrueAnon
Duration: 1 h 24 min 2 s
Description: We talk about the Ebola outbreak at Burning Man, and the trickster, the tricks, and the tricked.

Its so funny to be talking about how credulous everyone is taking everything at face value and then in the same minute repeat the story about the mass alien panic that never actually happened

We’re joined by booze journalist Dave Infante (twitter.com/dinfontay) to talk about the hidden history of the Coors family and their funding of the New Right — plus, developments at Anchor Brewing.

Dave is the editor of Fingers (www.fingers.email), an independent newsletter about drinking in America, and a contributing editor and columnist for VinePair.

Episode 307: Lite Power

Benjamin Fong joins us to talk about his new book Quick Fixes: Drugs in America from Prohibition to the 21st century Binge (versobooks.com/products/2981-quick-fixes). We chat about the uniquely American obsession with drugs, the war machine’s love affair with meth, the burgeoning psychedelic movement, and why everyone is so desperate to get high.

Episode 309: I Need Weed And Speed

We put on the balaclavas, chamber a round, and head to the cockpit to talk about the beautiful period in world history where hijacking airplanes was hot. A spiritual successor to our previous airplane episode.

Episode 312: The Romance of International Skyjacking

In this spiritual followup to our previous episode on Charter Cities, we get a glimpse at Galt’s Gulch Chile. We investigate how a farming community built on Ayn Rand’s principles fell into a freaky web of lawsuits, arrests, freaks, pencil mustaches, and a shooting at a Chilean protest by an American YouTube economist in a yellow vest.

Episode 320: High Times and Misdemeanors

We cover a spurt of stories about politicians being horny, starting with of course Lauren Boebert’s broadway handy. Then, have you seen this plane?: the air force loses an F-35 somewhere in South Carolina. Finally, we have a reading series on Mitt Romney’s self-mythologizing retirement announcement that eventually morphs into a rumination on the fate of empires.
