I Don't Speak German

We continue our election year series on movies about the US President, with a chat about Ivan Reitman's Capraesque 1993 political-romantic-comedy-drama-satire(???) Dave, starring Kevin Kline as a lovable goofball Presidential lookalike who ends up actually pretending to be the President, kindasorta accidentally pulling off a (well-meaning) one-man coup d'état, enmeshed in the plots of the evil White House Chief of Staff (Frank Langella), and falling in love with the First Lady (Sigourney Weaver).

Daniel is joined by friend-of-the-pod and regular guest/collaborator Eiynah Mohammed-Smith (Polite Conversations, Woking Up, @nicemangos (2) Eiynah (@nicemangos.bsky.social) — Bluesky ) to talk about Israel's genocide in Gaza, and in particular about some questions that have come up around IDSG's public response to it.

A trial balloon for a new format. Relatively brief, topical, news update episodes. We might do more of this going forward. This one is a response to the recent march of masked neo-nazis waving swastika flags through Nashville, Tennessee. We talk about the group involved, Blood Tribe, and their leader, attitudes, and associates.

Part 2 of our epic Dark Knight chat. Since we spent the entirety of the last one moaning about the technical shortcomings of Christopher Nolan's 2008 Batman vs the Joker movie, this time we - being who we are - felt the need to spend this episode moaning about the themes and politics and ideology. And so we did.

To whet your appetite for our intended imminent return, here's an old bonus episode - the first part of a long conversation Daniel and Jack had back in October 2021 about Christopher Nolan's bloated, pretentious, ramshackle, reactionary Batman vs the Joker movie from 2008.

Oooooo-wooooo! Wokeness is Scary! In this little Halloween bonus, Jack joins friend of the pod Eiynah Mohammed-Smith, and Dr Caitilin Green, for a special spooky space over at cursed nazi chan board X. Recorded October 27th 2023. Please excuse the usual sound quality issues. We talk about right-wing and IDW-type panics over woke Halloween costumes, concerns about cultural appropriation, etc. To quote Eiynah's write-up: "We discuss Bill Maher, Steven Crowder, Yale professors Nicholas & Erika Christakis & their calls for students to 'look away' from 'offensive Halloween costumes', U of Oregon Professor Nancy Shurtz who wore blackface at a party that students attended ….all this and more." As always, thanks to everyone who turned up to listen and contribute.

Another little bonus to tide you over. Jack briefly went back to eX-Twitter to hangout in a Space with best-friend-of-the-pod Eiynah and the excellent Dr Caitlin Green to talk about Russell Brand, Lauren Boebert, Danny Masterson, the hypocrisy of those who scream about groomers, patriarchy, etc. The bit where Caitlin talks about reactions to the Brand allegations among the 'Gender Criticals' is particularly interesting. Thanks to everyone who showed up to listen and/or join-in.

In this episode, Jack is honoured to be joined by special guest Teddy Wilson of the excellent substack Radical Reports. (Links below.) Teddy has been closely studying the US far-right, including the sinister political pressure group that calls itself Moms for Liberty, one of the prime movers in the current reactionary cultural counter-revolution going on in America. Teddy tells Jack all about it, going into detail about M4L's aims, methods, and connections. He also tells Jack about the interactive visualisation tool he's created at Radical Reports for tracking M4L, their activities and interactions with other people and groups on the right. Topics covered include M4L's links to the Republican Party including DeSantis in Florida, their ideological censorship movement to expunge school libraries of anything they don't like, their links to the Proud Boys and the Oath Keepers, etc. Fascinating (if ominous) stuff.

While Daniel and Jack continue working towards resumption of IDSG, Jack is once again invited by best-friend-of-the-pod Eiynah (@nicemangos of the Polite Conversations podcast) to co-host a Twitter space [obligatory Elon Musk joke here] about the new Barbie movie and the tsunami of reactionary tears it has invoked. Conversation (with contributions from various guests) ranges over the movie itself and Barbie herself, Musk and X, Dutch politics, the culture wars, Ben Shapiro, Matt Walsh, Piers Morgan, and that weird guy on YouTube who dresses like a medieval knight. Obviously, this being an X space (sigh), sound quality is variable.

Our hiatus continues, owing to some real pain-in-the-ass stuff in what is jokingly called 'real life'. Hopefully we are nearing the time when we can resume making new shows. In the meantime, here's another old bonus episode to tide you over until our triumphant return. In this one - originally recorded and released exclusively to Patreon subscribers in October 2021 - we discuss the 2008 movie Iron Man. * Daniel's Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/danielharper/posts Jack's Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/user?u=4196618&fan_landing=true Please consider donating to help us make the show and stay independent.

We're still working on getting back up and running so in the meantime, here's an old bonus episode. This is our March 2022 discussion of Art Spiegelman's Maus, to go with our public episode from February 2022 about the McMinn County School Board in Tennessee removing the classic graphic novel about the Holocaust from the curriculum. Sadly, this is relevant again because yet another school board - this time in Nixa, Missouri - has targeted the book. It's not alone either. Nor is Maus the only classic Holocaust text being targeted. Ann Frank's diary is in the crosshairs of Mom's For Liberty.

By way of a little compensation for you while you wait (patiently, bless you) for us to get our shit back together (which we are in the process of doing) here is a little bonus, a slightly edited recording of a Twitter space that we did with our friend Eiynah Mohammed-Smith (@NiceMangos) on 12th May last. We chat about the coronation of Prince Charles (that's his name goddammit!), the revolting sexist discourse around E. Jean Carroll's suit against Trump, and the equally revolting discourse from deniers and obfuscators around the deadly shooting in Allen, Texas, with special reference to the bullshit about his ethnicity. Other subjects come up, naturally. Some interesting people took part and made great contributions. Hope you enjoy it. See you soon.

Daniel and Jack reconvene for a chat about the coronation of Charles Windsor and the defenestration of Tucker Carlson. They also talk a little bit about their recent hiatus, and their imminent return to regular production of episodes. Enjoy!

Okay, so.... as you'll have noticed, we haven't been that productive lately. We've both been going through some stuff. However, we are both still committed to the show. To tide you over while you wait for us to get our acts back together, here's a public release of an old Patreon-only bonus episode from August 2021. It's a general chat in which Daniel and Jack react to some contemporary news, and Daniel tells Jack about his visit to a museum while on his holidays. More interesting than it sounds, hopefully. Content warnings for some discussions of atrocity and war, and one satirical use of a slur (by Jack). Also, owing to technical difficulties, this episode doesn't have the absolute greatest sound, but it's perfectly listenable.

Daniel and Jack return with a bumper episode. We start with Steven Crowder's declaration of hostilities against Shapiro and his organisation The Daily Wire, and from there we move through the various reactions on the far Right, from Elijah Schaffer to John Doyle to Isabelle Riley Moody to Nick Fuentes, and more. This episode is less about the Crowder vs. Shapiro spat and more about how it opens a window into the rampant and increasingly mainstreamed antisemitism on the Right. This episode comes with heavy content warnings. Daniel has done a ton of research and come back with a panoply of sniggering horrors. Jack has bleeped out the r-slurs and f-slurs. But still, take care. Show Notes: Please consider donating to help us make the show and stay ad-free and independent.

The conversation ranges over Teal Swan and influencers like her, the Anti-Wokeness of the conspiritualist milieu, the Satantic Panic and its relationship to QAnon, the fascists and their idea of 'after the revolution', and the neoliberal roots of our current cultural predicament.

A real treat this time, as Daniel and Jack are joined by special guest Sophie from Mars to talk about Caleb Maupin and the wider 'Conspiracy Left', i.e. those left-wingers (or pseudo left-wingers) who style themselves anti-imperialists (etc) and who embrace every bad cause from Putin/Assad-apologia to transphobia to conspiracist antisemitism. Sophie knows and understands this subject backwards and forwards. Her YouTube documentary video Conspiracy on the Left was an instant classic when it was released earlier this year, and she has lots of other videos in which (with others) she goes over Maupin's cultic conferences, his reactionary politics, his paranoid grudges, and his weird and patronising fascist screeds disguised as despatches from the new Lenin. A great chat about an important issue for the left to deal with. And there is also, you will be unsurprised to learn, some laughing at the cringe of it all.

Jack welcomes special guest Annika Brockschmidt to the show. Annika specialises in covering the far-right and tells Jack all about the recent German government swoop on those in the Reichsbürger movement who were planning 'Day X', a storming of the Bundestag and a takeover of the state. We go over the context of the far-right in Germany, the composition and ideology of the Reichsbürgers, the coup plans, the structure of the conspiracy, the reaction in Germany, the connections with QAnon and the Sovereign Citizens, the context of 'Nuremberg 2.0' and the various strands of paranoid pandemic politics, etc. A really fascinating episode, thanks to Annika's deep knowledge.

What happens when one of the most famous recording artists in the world has a full divorced-dad-crisis and plummets into the abyss he's been dangling over for ages, the abyss of far-right, antisemitic, pro-Nazi conspiracy theories? Well, now we know, because we've all been watching Ye (the artist formerly known as Kanye West) cart Nick Fuentes and Milo Yiannopoulos around with him like his new crew of homies and hype men as he dines with Trump, does interviews with Tim Pool and Alex Jones, and chats with Gavin McInnes (founder of the Proud Boys) in what looks like a torture basement from cheap kink porn, all the while loudly declaring that Hitler did nothing wrong and the Jews are out to get him. This episode focuses less on Ye himself and more on the Right's varied reactions to his odyssey of enthusiastic newly-converted-nazi antics. We check in with, amongst others, Nick Fuentes himself, Matt Walsh, and Elijah Schaffer. Show Notes: Please consider donating to help us make the show and stay ad-free and independent.

At the start of the month, Daniel and Jack co-hosted a Twitter Space hangout with their friend, IDW-gadlfy podcaster Eiynah Mohammed-Smith (@NiceMangos). We had a fun chat about all the silliness that right-wingers had been up to (Jordan weeping over incels to Piers Morgan, Matt Walsh freaking out over crystal flutes, Graham Linehan starting to doubt vaccines and climate change, Peter Thiel's 'Right Stuff' dating app, mermaids of colour, etc) and then took some questions from listeners. Teddy Wilson (@reportbywilson), journalist and researcher and publisher of Radical Reports (@radicalreports) joined us too. Fun start, more serious back half; altogether a fun show that we decided to put up for everyone here. Don't forget to contribute to Eiynah's GoFundMe if you haven't already.

We've been away but now we have returned and your ears will be sorry... largely because we're back with a soft-reboot episode in which we go back to our roots, i.e. the proper nazis... specifically, the cesspit that is the TRS podcast. In this show we take you behind the paywall and present a catalogue of hideousness, focusing on TRS co-host Jesse Dunstan (AKA Sven) and his various thoughts on ethic cleansing ('peaceful', of course), how to react properly to mass shootings by genocidal racists (don't deny, celebrate), the Holocaust (guess what he thinks), and why certain people should be forced to justify their right to exist. In the process, Dunstan is discovered mirroring the recorded words of one Heinrich Himmler (several times), Daniel speaks earnestly about his recent difficulties, and Jack gets more familiar with the appearance of the n-word as a waveform than he ever wanted or expected to. It's a long one. Bits of it are very grim. But we think it might be one you'll remember. Content Warnings. Obviously.

IDSG Episode 9, Mike Enoch and The Daily Shoah IDSG Episode 52, Genocide and The Right Stuff Angry White Men, "Pool Party's Closed: A Timeline of the Right Stuff's Meltdown" Johnny Monoxide at the SPLC Chip Rowe, The Highlands Current, "The Extremist Next Door" Himmler Speech in Posen (Poland) in October 4, 1943. I am talking about the evacuation of the Jews, the extermination of the Jewish people. It is one of those things that is easily said. "The Jewish people is being exterminated," every Party member will tell you "perfectly clear, it's part of our plans, we're eliminating the Jews, exterminating them, a small matter." And then along they all come, all the 80 million upright Germans, and each one has his decent Jew. They say: all the others are swine, but here is a first-class Jew. And . . . none of them has seen it, has endured it. Most of you will know what it means when 100 bodies lie together, when 500 are there or when there are 1000. And . . . to have seen this through and—with the exception of human weakness—to have remained decent, has made us hard and is a page of glory never mentioned and never to be mentioned. Because we know how difficult things would be, if today in every city during the bomb attacks, the burdens of war and privations, we still had Jews as secret saboteurs, agitators and instigators. We would probably be at the same stage as 16/17, if the Jews still resided in the body of the German people. End note: We have taken away the riches that they had, and . . . I have given strict order, which Obergruppenführer Pohl has carried out, we have delivered these riches to the Reich, to the State. We have taken nothing from them for ourselves. A few, who have offended against this, will be judged in accordance with an order, that I gave at the beginning: he who takes even one Mark of this is a dead man. A number of SS men have offended against this order. They are very few, and they will be dead men WITHOUT MERCY! We have the moral right, we had the duty to our people, to kill this people who would kill us. We however do not have the right to enrich ourselves with even one fur, with one Mark, with one cigarette, with one watch, with anything. That we do not have. Because we don't want, at the end of all this, to get sick and die from the same bacillus that we have exterminated. I will never see it happen that even one . . . bit of putrefaction comes in contact with us, or takes root in us. On the contrary, where it might try to take root, we will burn it out together. But altogether we can say: We have carried out this most difficult task for the love of our people. And we have suffered no defect within us, in our soul, in our character.

In this episode, Jack is joined by special guest Rob from The Right Podcast, creator of intimidatingly detailed yet somehow also accessible and enjoyable shows covering subjects from US domestic right-wing extremism to Russian right-wing extremism, Russia and Ukraine, National Bolshevism, etc. We have a chat about the populist US 'People's Party' - presidential candidate: Jimmy Dore - and their composition, actual politics, and internal scandals, including their recent disgraceful tweet thread of rape apologia. The conversation ranges over Dore and Caleb Maupin (and his tendency) to Putin and Russia, Greenwald, the 'alt-imperialist' left, the theories of Dugin and their influence, and misinformation, including Oliver Stone's disinfo 'documentary Ukraine on Fire. Rob's channel and videos come highly recommended. Content Warnings Show Notes: Please consider donating to help us make the show and stay ad-free and independent.

We here at IDSG have lots of great stuff in the pipeline... but the pipeline is taking a little longer to construct than we'd like. So here is a bonus episode - originally published in June last year and previously available only to Patreon backers - featuring us in conversation with our old friend, podcasting legend James Murphy, about Grant Naylor's novel Red Dwarf: Infinity Welcomes Careful Drivers, based on the TV series. Plus access to all other bonus episodes. Daniel's Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/danielharper/posts Jack's Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/user?u=4196618&fan_landing=true Content Warnings.

So, Daniel and Jack recorded a bonus episode on 1998's Primary Colors (the Mike Nichols movie, written by Elaine May, starring John Travolta and Emma Thompson, based on the originally Anonymous roman-à-clef about the 1992 Bill Clinton primary campaign) for their Patreon contributors... and, as the discussion ranged widely, it somehow turned into something they wanted to release on the main feed.
