Ironweeds ·

2022/02/21

This week we talk about a white supremacist rally in Woodstock, a WaPo food critic who wants to be pampered, and because we love you so much, a double whammy wildflower of labor and

132 - One Weird Trick Western Imperialists HATE

Ironweeds ·

2022/02/15

The horrors of the modern world greet us this week, with tortured monkies, conspiracy-fueled spousal murder, whatever is going on at Fort Bragg, and Anti-China propaganda that paints Western Imperialism as the responsible parent of a wayward Africa. But German weasels are doing god’s work. These bears aren’t even bears, let alone horny

131 - Gordon’s Groypers

Ironweeds ·

2022/02/07

Boss Baby Steve’s lackeys have had their phones confiscated, and David wants to see the groypers. The infamous Renalli memo commissioned by Mayor Madden is being released, and our boy Chris Churchill is not impressed. Albany is using millions of dollars in American Rescue Plan funds to give cops raises–look they’ve really struggled in this economy, OK? Green Island is getting green micro transit that is BY New Yorkers, FOR New Yorkers! Got it? And lastly, a big round of applause for all of the

130 - No Sloppy Potholes

Ironweeds ·

2022/01/31

Our boy Ross Douthat has a bad case of tick borne illness and takes the entirely wrong lessons from his journey to wellness. Fuel tax dollars meant to repair infrastructure in Pennsylvania took a wrong turn somewhere and ended up in the state police’s pockets. All crypto is a fake scam, but this crypto especially is a fake scam! Some good news coming out of Saratoga and the Gulf of Mexico. Ross Douthat gets Lyme, learns nothing:

129 - More Like OmiCRAP

2022/01/25

As Covid peaks in the Capital District, its complications surge around the globe. From indentured servitude to scam testing to trigger happy parents to presidential quackery, we have a lot of depressing covid news that we can’t wait to share with you. Also Dry January is pure evil and New York is keeping farty food out of landfills. Medical workers barred from beginning new jobs:

128 - Googling Ourselves to Death

Ironweeds ·

2022/01/17

In Biden’s America, parents face fines for keeping sick kids home in a pandemic, blue-pilled Senators flagrantly violate public health and safety rules, and the plebes are told to treat Covid testing like going to your favorite brunch place. The Spanish Secret Service was behind the 2017 terror attack in Barcelona in an attempt to keep Catalonia in line. The 1/15 hostage situation in Fort Worth surrounds a shadowy figure called the Gray Lady of Bagram. How the decision to have kids is personal,

127 - Piggy Playground

Ironweeds ·

2022/01/10

This week we’re talking about the strange connection between cryptocurrency and the unrest in Kazakhstan, the strange connection between Maxwell trial juror number 50 and the Carlyle Group, and the strange connection between Coca Cola and a live action role playing park for cops in Atlanta. Chris shows his true loyalty as Worcester says no to invasive facial recognition technology. Worcester bans facial recognition

126 - Lowered Expectations

Ironweeds ·

2022/01/04

We’re back, baby! New Year, same us! We’re talking Matrix 4, Don’t Look Up, Covid Gone Wild, political retaliation in Rensselaer County, and the leftist smoke show who’s now President of Chile! What does 2022 have in store for us? It’s anybody’s guess. Middling movies, a runaway virus, and a few glimmers of hope on the political horizon are setting the tone. The Covid-19 case surge is altering daily life across the US. Things will likely get worse, experts warn

125 - Non-Fungible RBG

Ironweeds ·

2021/12/07

For our last show of 2021, we talk about the latest school shooter and the unique culpability of the parents. Also in the news is the danger Roe v. Wade is in after recent Supreme Court arguments. With Ghislaine Maxwell on trial, we share a bizarre and compelling conspiracy theory that she is a Master Poster. Rod Dreher is very upset that our elites are into butt stuff. And… Steve McLaughlin got arrested. Amazing. We love you so much, and we’ll see you next

01:06:13

124 - Super Smash & Grab Bros.

Ironweeds ·

2021/11/29

With Britney out of commission, the boys hold it down this week to talk about the Omicron variant, the panic over crime and policing, and the epidemic of people being cool and doing crimes. The West’s vaccine hoarding has come back to haunt us with a new Covid variant. Despite press and police freak outs over defund activism, cops have more money than ever. The supposed crime spree of smash-and-grabbers is just another element of the false narrative that cops prevent crime. But you already knew

01:11:52

123 - I GotThe Blue Life Blues

Ironweeds ·

2021/11/22

With Kyle Rittenhouse being acquitted, we reflect on his violent acts and the trial. NYPD cops are having a very sad time and regret entering the force. Poor things. In Troy, fear mongering surrounds Barker Park and the presence of people who dare to be homeless in public. The go-to boogeyman in both of these cases is, of course, bail reform. As we predicted ages ago, Republicans are routing Democrats on cannabis legalization, because heaven forbid Democrats ever do something that is widely popular

122 - Default For Me Argentina

Ironweeds ·

2021/11/15

… the truth is I’ll never pay you! This week we’re doing a deep dive into the history of Argentinian debt repayment, or lack thereof. As the country has yoyo-ed between populist and neoliberal political leadership, Argentina’s relationship to IMF loans has changed. Repaying debt is cringe, defaulting is based. Sources on

01:20:52

121 - Long, Loud, and Impossible to Ignore

Ironweeds ·

2021/11/08

This week we do a pretty depressing election recap and then promise to not talk about electoral politics for a very long time. Biden is allowing BLM protesters to face domestic terrorism charges from the Trump Administration for engaging in property destruction and harming no one. Starbucks sent management into 3 Buffalo area stores to quell talks of unionizing, and they can’t even take out the trash without pissing off workers. Marjorie Taylor Greene promises to abolish the prison industrial

01:22:26

120 - Sex Pest Steve and Handsy Andy

Ironweeds ·

2021/11/01

With the election looming large over Rensselaer County, Sex Pest Steve is helping out his pals by handing out contracts to donors. While at the national level Dems abandon child care in their reconciliation bill, Capital District parents are unable to find spots for their own kids. Handsy Andy is being charged for a groping incident, but apparently is too important to be perp walked. With a wave of strikes around the country, it’s time for a sober evaluation of the state of labor today. And Ryan

119 - Little Demons and the Spectre of Capitol

Ironweeds ·

2021/10/25

This week we’re talking about the spooky history of the New York State Capitol Building, where the devil is in the details. Tesla is paying out a whopping $137 million dollars due to its toxic, racist work environment, and your boss can’t fire you for being high. Too high, yes, but not like, normal high. Tesla Pays $137 million for racist work environment: https://www.cnbc.com/2021/10/05/tesla-must-pay-137-million-to-ex-worker-over-hostile-work-environment-racism.html You can’t be fired for

118 - Care About Child Care Feat. Ashley

Ironweeds ·

2021/10/18

This week we’re blessed with a guest! Ashley joins us to share her experiences working in child care activism and to inform us about the dismal state of child care in the US. We also discuss dreadful conditions at the Rensselaer County Jail, the rights of vapers, and Zuck’s massive pay cut in the wake of whistleblower allegations and Facebook downage. Vapers’ rights https://www.nytimes.com/2021/10/12/health/ecigarettes-fda-vuse.html?referringSource=articleShare Child

117 - Living Well and Lying Flat

Ironweeds ·

2021/10/11

This week we ask ourselves: What is the good life? American men are dropping out of the above board workforce in huge numbers, while women are increasing their numbers. We talk about the Buen Vivir movement and the tensions between Deep Ecology and Social Ecology, with David channeling cranky Bookchin. In China, workers are celebrating Tangping, or Lying Flat, in response to brutal work schedules. What does it mean to work? To rest? To care for oneself in a broken world? Ya know, just some light

01:38:38

116 - Beta Cuck Testers

Ironweeds ·

2021/10/04

This week we’re returning to an old favorite, the nightmarish business model of Tesla and the lack of any meaningful regulation to curtail it. We also remember the rallying cry of kids in cages as President Biden allows Border Patrol to play cowboy/slave driver on Haitians seeking asylum. Oath Keepers communications have been hacked, and the documents are riddled with cops and military types. Britney is finally getting free, which turns out to redound to all our benefit, and these global cities have

115 - Suspicious Cleavage

Ironweeds ·

2021/09/27

Everyone is responding to the vaccine mandates, as you would expect: badly. Already strained hospitals and schools are about to lose a ton of employees. Cuomo was gonna assemble the NY Cannabis Control Board but then he got high (on ziti) so Hochul finished the job. The Intercept shares some spooky reporting on the lab-leak theory of Covid19 and gain of function research. And the courts block a huge drilling project in Alaska, citing concerns about the end of life as we know it. Support the

114 - I Owe My Soul To The Factory Store

Ironweeds ·

2021/09/20

Coming to a working class near you: entire towns owned and operated by Amazon. Don’t worry, it’s for your own good! And as a parting gift, our pull out from Afghanistan features the murder of seven children and three adults whose crime was transporting water. We have a few updates on Britney, Byron, and Buffalo, and for a palate cleanser we talk about Barcelona reclaiming space from cars to create public green space. Alain Kaloyeros conviction upheld over buffalo billions bid-rigging
