EPISODE #80 : Mamma Mia! Luigi Mangione was arrested this past week. We get into the discourse of it all. Democrat politicians are supporting his decision? Insane comments from AOC and Elizabeth Warren. But.. is Luigi actually the killer?? Is he gay? We got the all the *alleged* details.

Episode #79: We?re back.. and in person! This week, the PW crew is in Miami.. so we?re finally doing an in person episode. Don?t mind our festive hats. The UnitedHealthcare CEO was assassinated in New York City this past week. What looked like another story on crime in NYC, quickly turned into a full on targeted attack. The deranged left took to social media to celebrate the death of a health insurance CEO. The journalist leading the charge was none other than friend of the pod, Taylor Lorenz. We get into the dark timeline of what discourse like this could lead to. Hunter Biden was pardoned in a surprise move by Joe Biden. Who will be pardoned next? Pirate Idol is back! This time, the married couple battles it out! We discuss the gender affirmation bill in Tennessee and Elon Musk?s Tesla stock denied by the judge. Enjoy the show!

EPISODE #78: Welcome back to the pod! Eade Bengard joins us this week. NYC crime has gotten completely out of hand this week. A knife wielding crazy person walked around Manhattan stabbing 3 people. Meanwhile, our elected officials only care about taking more money from working class citizens. Mainstream media downfall continues. Morning Joe ratings plummet. What?s the future of these shows? Perhaps you shouldn?t have spent all this time calling Trump the next Hitler? Pirate Idol returns! We explain the rise of the ?Broligarchy? (whatever that is) and we get you ready for Thanksgiving with the family! If you?re a toxic uncle, this pod is for you!

San Francisco should be the greatest city in the world, and that?s the goal. One where crime is illegal, NGO grifters are removed, public transportation is solvent, and the budget is balanced. Things, in other words, should just be normal.

Pirate Wires recently endorsed Mark Farrell to become the next mayor of San Francisco. In this interview, Mark joins us to give his vision for the future of San Francisco and why he will bring the city back to it?s glory.

With the election only a few days away, the path forward is clear (for people who aren?t insane.)

EPISODE #75: This week, we take a look at how podcasts are shaping this years election. Our guest this week, John Coogan, called this out months ago when predicting election season. But has it actually been a net positive for the candidates? Polymarket has been heavily favoring a Trump victory. However, there?s something here that everyone is missing. Trump visits McDonald?s in an Americana scene out of a Normal Rockwell painting. Liberal women cope and seethe after men no longer protect them in major cities (see: Daniel Penny). And we tell you why cyclists are the worst people

Unfortunately, Kamala?s interview with Fox News did not go as well as she had hoped. We take a look at the remaining weeks of the campaign and what the betting markets are telling us. Will Trump or Kamala go on the Joe Rogan podcast? Elon & SpaceX continue to inspire the country by completing once impossible missions, while California tries to remove them for political reasons. The FBI changes crime data and Venezuelan migrants are causing an uptick in crime in cities. Finally, The last quarterfinal of Pirate Idol. Columbus Day? Or Indigenous Peoples Day? Our political parties are now celebrating different holidays on the same day.

EPISODE #73: Welcome back! Hurricane Milton approached Florida as a Category 5 Hurricane. The lead up to landfall was filled with insane discourse. Harris & DeSantis went at it, and the hard right called the entire thing a government made conspiracy. Trump & Harris took to the media tours this week. The stark differences in which shows they went on highlighted the gaps in voters. Speaking of the Presidential race, Trump currently owns a large lead on Harris. But is this all because of MAGA whales and Peter Thiel? Finally, Pirate Idol returns with the next round of quarterfinals. Is Elon musk the secret Presidential candidate behind Trump?

EPISODE #69 (nice): This week, we gotta get into this crazy story out of Springfield, Ohio. A town of 60,000 has become overrun by 20,000 Haitian migrants. Things took a weird turn this past week when reports of migrants stealing pets and eating them started to pop up on Facebook. This led to an AI meme war, JD Vance tweeting about it, and Trump yelling about it on the debate. Speaking of the debate, we react to this week?s Presidential debate with Trump/Harris. We were fed the typical political slop that we expected, but it Harris did much better than anticipated. Finally, another round of Pirate Idol! 3 fresh contestants take the stage to compete for a co-hosting spot on the pod.

The aftermath was chaotic.. and we're reacting to all of it. Next up, we discuss John Coogan?s piece in Pirate Wires this week on the right wing vibe shift in tech. Is it even real? Or just overblown by a few major donors? We are then joined by special guest. Patrick Blumenthal gives us a live report from Ukraine. What is the feeling like day-to-day in Ukraine, and how are tech companies doing amidst the war? Finally, the clown show that is Just Stop Oil. This week they attacked Stonehenge.

EPISODE #57: Welcome Back To The Pod! Ashley St. Clair joins us this week for the first time. Packed show! First, we jump into Elon makes ?likes? private on X. Will this be good for the platform, or just bring more chaos? IVF has become a talking point online as the right constantly looks for ways to blow their lead in the election. An anon account on Twitter shows up to take down all of the Twitter influencers. His claims don?t seem to have much substance, but it showed a yearning for these people to be taken down. Nationalism is on the rise in Europe. Why is this happening? and why are we seeing the same thing happen in America? It?s pride month! We discuss the silly moments in pride and why we?ve seen an anti-pride movement.

We start off with the TikTok divestiture bill that was signed into law by President Biden, and was conveniently placed into a foreign aid package for Ukraine & Israel. Next up, Ivy League colleges shut down over yay-Hamas protests. Is all anti-semitism? Or just an excuse for kids to go glamping with their friends. We transition into protests at work and woke activism. Coinbase started the trend years ago with mission driven company, and now their bet is on the right side of history. Finally, the NPR story gets even better (or worse). Katherine Maher appears to be involved with the CIA. Enjoy!

EPISODE #47: The Pirate Wires crew is here for your weekly podcast! This week, we kick things off with FTC Chair, Lina Khan, appearing on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart. From the standing ovation, to the blatant speak of dismantling tech companies, we analyze exactly what she said. We then get into the "Right To Disconnect" bill introduced in California, that would effectively punish companies who message an employee after 5pm. Next up, the war on algebra continues! Last week, we discussed Jo Boaler in San Francisco. This week, we dive into the insane discourse around the Garry Tan funded company, Mentrava. Finally, squatters all around the nation, from NYC to San Francisco. River breaks down his piece on an organization in SF that's actively helping people to find places to squat. It's all crazy! We're here to help navigate it all.

EPISODE #46: Back at it again! This week we have a discussion around "disinformation experts". What makes these people experts, (aside from Mike Solana of course) and why do they only blame misinformation on the right wing? We think you know why. Meta was in the news this past week. From Boomers getting fooled by AI images, to the decision to limit political news ahead of the election season. Ron DeSantis signs a bill to ban social media for kids in Florida. Do you agree? Finally, Sanjana breaks down her piece on Jo Boaler, the woman who dismantled Algebra education in San Francisco.

Then, Don Lemon is back in the news. His deal with X was cancelled after an interview with Elon Musk went awry. Now, Don is going back to his old employers claiming free speech violations.

Next, we get into the "Battle Of The Ages". Taylor Lorenz and Libs of TikTok meet up in person for a battle that will live in internet infamy for all of eternity. Ok maybe not (it's just them sitting at a cafe). We get into why Taylor Lorenz is the undisputed champion of internet battles. Next story involves a family feud which involves a female influencer and her Bitcoin shirt wearing father. Finally, we wrap with the continued liberal vibe shift of the post-C*vid era.

EPISODE #39: Welcome back to the pod! This week, we get right into the absolute insanity of Google?s Gemini A.I. Image Generator. Twitter erupted in activity earlier this week when people were using the AI, only to find that it was nearly impossible to generate a white person (despite historical inaccuracies.) We get into all of the hilariously absurd examples. Next up, what do Taylor Swift, Travis Kelce, and Joe Biden all have in common? Well clearly it?s their attempt to take over the election this year! (but also.. probably not.) We get in to the conspiracy of it all. Finally, Sanjana breaks down her piece on how a local government successfully ended homeless camps. Another fun one! Hope you enjoy!
