EOI 131 -- P**s-Poor Design
======================
Hello again! This episode, recorded on March 19th, 2024, features commentary from comrades Chava, Joe, and myself. We cover the "su***de" of Boeing whistleblower John Barnett, the 737 MAX engineer who outright refused to fly on the 737 MAX, still more atrocities committed against the Palestinian people in the weeks preceding the ceasefire resolution, the sweet irony of Yemen's assault on the United States, the absurd movie plot playing out in NATO and the European Union, the ejection of US forces from Niger, and the arrest of a "ballsy" former political candidate, as it were. Slams hit so hard this time they scrambled my brain.

=================================================
This episode, recorded on March 5th, 2024, features commentary from comrades Scott, Joe, Chava, and myself.
CONTENT WARNING FOR SU***DE, as we dive into the self-immolation of Aaron Bushnell, and responses to it by law enforcement, the American military-industrial complex, the Palestinian resistance, the neoliberal press, left-wing youtubers, and ourselves, of course, in addition to detailing the pathological false consciousness intended to undermine radical collective action. We also discuss plane-seeking tornadoes; developments from the Palestinian front lines; ICC charges against Western war criminals; the Argentine implosion; local developments both good and bad; and the Texan ass bandit; finally closing out with some southwestern slamming desert death.

================================================
Hello comrades! Welcome back to the Epoch of Incredulity. This is part two of episode 127, recorded on 01/16/24. Please keep in mind that (a) we had already been recording for like an hour and forty five minutes by this time, and (b) the ICJ was still reviewing evidence presented at the genocide hearing when we recorded our segment, which deepens our own vindication alongside that of South Africa. In addition, Chava, Joe, and I touch on Fetterman's embarrassing ignorance, Biden's dismal approval ratings, NOAA's distressing annual climate report, and some truly tragic toilet trauma, before closing out with some gut-wrenching slams at the gateway to Siberia.

Hello comrades! Chava, Joe, and I recorded this on 1/16/24, and, perhaps given the abundance of bu****it in the first few weeks of the new year, I've had to trim about an hour from it and split it up into two episodes.
In part one, we uncover the neoliberal rot under-girding the recent Boeing 737 Max 9 incident and discuss the deepening quagmire in West Asia, including: The success of the Red Sea blockade in stymieing western war profiteering; the pentagon-brained bombing campaign, in response, against Ansar Allah; the Mossad-backed oil pirates that were vaporized in Kurdistan (Northern Iraq); and the tragedy unfolding among settlers in the Israeli occupied territory.
Part two will be released whenever I'm done editing.

Hello, beautiful proletarians. I've taken on the episode artwork and description for this special occasion, in part because I've been awake since yesterday morning and I need something to fight off the delirium between now and the NA meeting I probably, really, need to attend, later tonight.
This episode, although entirely Joeless, is not entirely joyless. I turn the tankie k**b down a couple of notches; we extend a bit of empathy to the misled and maladjusted. We may be ill, but we're not dead yet, you incorrigible bastards!
With love,

Have you ever wondered how the UN works? Well, don't worry cause this episode of the Epoch opens with a brief explainer as to why the entire thing might be completely ineffective. As the genocides in Gaza and the Congo continues, the IDF has been wearing diapers, and killing their own civilians. Zuckerberg wants to be your landlord, and Nicolás Maduro wants Guyana's oil. At least, Kissinger died, and boycotts cost Starbuck 11 billion dollars. This was a chaotic recording! Hopefully you enjoy the episode. Thank you and catch our patreon. patreon.com/epicincredulity

NOTE: This episode was recorded a few days before the death of war criminal Henry Kissinger, we'll talk about it next time. Or maybe not. F**k that guy. Yeah, sure, he lived to 100 so, sure, he won, but still; f**k that guy. Rest in P**s, Bitch.

This episode of the Epoch features the return of long absent co-host, Comrade Chava. We discuss violence and hate around the world. From Liberal Zionist's attempts to primary Rashida Tlaib, the showdown in the senate between Markwayne Mullin and Sean O'Brien, the victory of weirdo comic books villains and piss-haired fascists in Argentina and The Netherlands respectively, Boris Johnson's meddling and sabotage of Russo-Ukrainian peace, and of course the on-going Israeli Occupation of Palestine.
