Guest Episode: Spycops Legacy, Part 2 (feat. Tom Fowler)
This is a special supplemental episode this week featuring friend of the show and investigative journalist Samantha Asumadu (@SamanthaAsumadu) This episode continues Sam Asumadu's interview with Tom Fowler on the topic of the Spycops inquiry, and the degree to which the British state has attempted to scuttle any and all social justice protests, while at the same time ensuring the far right has a free pass. Tom is the host of the Spycops Info Podcast, which is available here: https://spycops.info/ If you missed part 1, check it out here: https://five.libsyn.com/show/episodes/view/32524677 Spycops may not be a familiar story to American listeners, but the summarized version is: the British state has recently admitted to using secret deep-cover police to infiltrate activist groups for over 30 years, using stolen identities and encouraging officers to enter into relationships with activists (to include fathering children) only to abandon them once their mission ended. As Sam describes in this episode, the surveillance (and sabotage of activist groups) is something still happening to this day.

Guest Episode: Spycops Legacy, Part 1 (feat. Tom Fowler)
This is a special supplemental episode this week featuring friend of the show and investigative journalist Samantha Asumadu (@SamanthaAsumadu) In part 1 of this interview series, Sam speaks with activist and reporter Tom Fowler, who's been documenting the Spycops inquiries in the UK—and who was himself part of a group infiltrated by Spycops in the 2000s. Tom is the host of the Spycops Info Podcast, which is available here: https://spycops.info/ Spycops may not be a familiar story to American listeners, but the summarized version is: the British state has recently admitted to using secret deep-cover police to infiltrate activist groups for over 30 years, using stolen identities and encouraging officers to enter into relationships with activists (to include fathering children) only to abandon them once their mission ended. As Tom's interview reveals, the details are even more unsettling than what's summarized above. Part 2 will be out next week!

DadChat: Is There a Perfect Time to Have a Kid? No
ENote: this DadChat was recorded back in March right before Nate had a family emergency, so if it seems out-of-date it's due to that. For this week's DadChat, Nate and Francis discuss the perennial question of 'when is it the correct time to have a kid?' And the answer is: whenever the circumstances work for you, but there's always something happening that makes it a challenge. And once it happens you will never sleep normally again.

DadChat: 2000s Culture Free Association
EFor this week's DadChat, Nate and Francis examine just what would constitute an 'I remember the 2000s' cultural encapsulation. As someone who literally owned an 'All Your Base Are Belong to Us' shirt (Nate) and a guy who experienced the red ring of death on an Xbox 360 (Francis), we simply know the source material too well. Also in this episode: Nate having to wage war against the British postal service because one guy apparently has the power to send your mail to the bottom of the ocean if he doesn't want to load a heavy package on a truck.
