"Catching up on Trump's odds, Harris-Walz news, and the New Confederacy (Israel)"
Some cathartic righteous anger from Terrence in this one. Also a bit about Olympic cowboy/prospector diving for gold.

I definitely need to do that as well, I usually listen while doing other things and find myself missing bits. This one absolutely deserves more focus than I gave it first time around. I really enjoy when they keep touching back on a theme and revisiting topics from previous eps with new info and events in mind. Back in October/November of last year they really did help me stay out of the rubber room
Tarence (sorry for misspelling his name) is up there with
and Michael S Judge to me for being able to really elucidate a point on a complicated theoretical point and make really insightful analysis while also letting some righteous anger out and tempering it with some humor when its appropriate. Julian Field from QAA gets up to that level sometimes too.
I can only speak to Matt and TWP but yeah absolutely agree, perfect mix to get the message across effectively. I should listen to Michael S Judge and more QAA it sounds like if they're in a similar vein
Michael S Judge hosts the podcast Death is Just Around the Corner and is usually about parapolitics, shady history, the formation of the post-WW2 "rules based international order" which he refers to as the Fourth Reich and really gets a lot of mileage out of fleshing out the links from the Third Reich to the OSS and early CIA, the JFK assassination and CIA as organized crime and how the Bay of Pigs plays into it, global opiate market and Vietnam War, etc. but he also sometimes just gets really into the weeds on some aspect of psychology or linguistics, or mythology, or some music or movie he loves and thinks says something interesting about another broader thing he's interested in. He touches on Pynchon (Gravity's Rainbow especially) a lot, David Bowie, Charlie Parker, Stanley Kubrick, Dom Delilo, all kinds of stuff.
When he gets on a tear about something, he's one of the most impressive speakers I've heard at being able to really expand and detail complicated history or dense theory off the top of his head in really erudite long soliloquies where he can nest like three asides that expand on a point into one long point he's making and keep my attention the entire time. I'd recommend his entire podcast highly. His guest spots on Trueanon and Chapo are good starting places, but I'd give a heads up for CWs for substance abuse and mental health stuff, he was addicted to opiates and drinking by his own admission for a lot of the earlier stuff and sounds noticeably fucked up on some of them, and has frequently discussed having OCD and horror stories of his interactions with mental healthcare and pharmaceuticals. There's a multi part series he did on kicking opiates that gets really uncomfortable but is really well done.
(sorry for the long reply, but he's one of my favorites and super underrated imo.)
Oh right on I have definitely heard those, I just didn't remember the name I guess. I really enjoyed what he had to say, idk why I didn't go out of my way to hear more. I've definitely been in need of a yet unlistened to podcast to go through while driving for work and this sounds like a great one
Hell yeah go off friend
Hell yeah
