Alex returns to make fun of the Epstein files for the third week in a row, rant about how democrats (aside from Zohran) don't know how to run a successful/authentic election anymore, and complain about the state of the economy, and what you can do to navigate a world where everything around you is trying to find more inventive ways to take your money (btw new merch is available in the link here: https://my-store-11508079.creator-spring.com/listing/the-fine-i-miss-her-mug?product=1565&variation=104920
Alex runs his mouth about the way the current President allegedly used his mouth on that other President, and discusses the AI bubble being about to burst, as well as the consequences of the public allowing themselves to get gaslit by LLMs like ChatGPT.
It turns out sometimes the most sinister of people use Gmail to discuss their crimes, and accidentally leave behind the most outrageous and incriminating paper trail. Sometimes it's through said paper trail where we find out something as outrageous as "Donald Trump gave Bill Clinton head."
Alex talks about the recent findings from the leaked 20,000 Jeffrey Epstein emails as well as clowns the current president for... you know already....
Alex (finally) (actually) returns from getting milk to rant about the government shutdown, Donald Trump, late stage capitalism, how AI is contributing to the downfall of the working class, and the McDonald's App.
Come for the popcorn lung. Stay for the full-throttle monologue about justice, dreams, and why Joe Biden might actually be our dying-yet-adorable last hope.
This episode covers:
And somehow ends with a hopeful love story and a speech that might make you cry.
Welcome back to The Short News Podcast.
Alex reacts to another instance of police brutality caught on tape during a traffic stop in Florida, talks about racial profiling in 2025, and how surveillance technology and AI is being weaponized against civilians.
From the rise of the "Omnipticon" to James Gunn's Superman's unexpected message of hope -this is about justice, voice,and why even the softest-seeming authority figures aren' always your friends.
Yup, even Paw Patrol.
Alex is back - and so is President Trump. Like old times, Alex rants about Trump's recent executive orders and drastic moves such as mass deportations, letting Elon Musk way too close to the government, cutting out important federal jobs, and so much more "fun" stuff.
Alex returns (on-time for once), gives a little update on the future of the podcast (and podcast network), upcoming guests, contract negotiations, and (briefly) celebrates the five year anniversary of this podcast. Donald Trump has been confirmed as the next President of the United States (again), and Alex complains about his most recent and hilariously horrifying cabinet nominations, including a WWE executive, a sex criminal, a bigot (or 30), a tinkerer, a tailor, and a spy (those last three were jokes btw but I won't be surprised if Trump makes it happen).
Alex talks about October being a weird month for everyone he knows, his ongoing neurological issues, Israel and October 7th's first anniversary, Elon Musk and how he's literally shaped like Wario, Trump's most recent rally in Pennsylvania, Kamala Harris on the Call Her Daddy Podcast, ketamine therapy, and the problematic accessibility of kratom.
Alex angrily rants about Israel committing war crimes and the United States' involvement in said war crimes, the TikTok ban, and there's a very special musical guest.
The show has returned to some sort of normalcy, Alex relearns how to do a solo podcast, talks about the 2024 election, the problems with Tesla's Cybertruck, and alludes to potential tensions between Israel and Iran.
