TRS Radio (WASHINGTON, D.C.) – With the Trump transition team shaping up to be a mixed bag of Trump loyalists, kayaks, and party establishmentarians, McFeels and Halberstram provide their unparalleled insights and analysis on Trump’s latest picks in hour one. In hour two, they’re joined by Fortune 500 executive and former congressional candidate, Paul Nehlen, for an exclusive first-time Alt Right interview. There they take a look back at Nehlen’s race against globalist cuckold par excellence, Paul Ryan, his perspective on Trump’s victory, and what the future holds. In hour 3, McFeels and Halberstram return to their usual format to discuss the latest of many burgeoning left-wing conspiracy theories, most prominently,#FakeNews and the absurd narrative that “Russia hacked the U.S. election”. It’s all ahead on Fash the Nation!

I gave this one a listen today. Learned a few new codewords. Didoo??? :lol: Some decent information presented sprinkled with some subtle racism that devolved into not so subtle racism. Definitely not a podcast for most.

Wow, thanks DO.

I just want to mention that History of Byzantium is getting better and better. The way that he does a couple months of narrative, and then a month or two of "end of the century" episodes to go over territory, culture, military, neighbors, etc. is really awesome to help you remember the information

History of Byzantium sounds like a good podcast to get into but one that I do like and listen to is called, History According to Bob (or summahistorica). The podcast itself only last about a few minutes (and each episode can be about a different topic- which can range from Ancient Greece/Mesopotamia to WWII)

http://www.summahistorica.com/

Another great podcast to listen to is called The Eastern Border. It's pretty good and it's about daily life in the Soviet Union.

For anyone into true-crime and urban legends: Generation Why

Definitely in the same vein as This is Criminal and Sword & Scale, De Officiis. They cover a pretty large range of topics but they seem to be logical and skeptical people and I've liked the personalities and production enough to follow it for years. Sometimes the subjects are too much for me but they give good analysis of many well known cases.

Yeah, where'd he end up? He wasn't posting much anymore, but still...



Listening to Joe Rogan #436 - Stefan Molyneux. Very interesting dude.
He even spoke the heresy that corporations are not part of Free Market Capitalism. :o
SJWs are a natural consequence of corporatism.
