It's a scary world, but rest assured the Democrats are going to say "fuck" and "piss" until it stops.

We react to the U.S. invasion of Venezuela, kidnapping of Maduro, the U.S. media narratives, and the potential geopolitical fallout from this attack — including how it affects the Middle East.

We then get to a review of "The Feeling of Being Watched" -- a documentary that we've been meaning to get to for a while about the surveilance state's targeting of U.S. Muslims/Arabs.

We end on a quick reflection on the Mamdani inauguration.

Lots in this episode.

We discuss a Harpers story about "gooners," before Ahmed introduces Yasmine to Kylies.muse -- an influencer who transcends categorization and may or may not be a CIA opp.

We recorded this on October 15 (just to contextualize the discussion about the "ceasefire"). We then discuss two articles: Malala's piece about smoking weed and reliving her trauma, and we also discuss the ire she inspires in leftists, the scond article is by an Israeli who tries to "escape the genocide" by going to a paridisal Greek island where you can remove your clothes, but not your shame.
