148: The Secret Lives of MAGA Wives feat. Madeline Peltz
Picture it: You are in a secluded strip of fancy-pants military housing. In the distance, a Bose stereo pumps out an EDM remix of “Ring of Fire.” A beleaguered Benihana chef squirts sake into Doug Burgum’s wiggling, groaning, drunken mouth. A mechanical bull launches an unattended seven-year-old boy into the air, his landing spot out of sight. You are now in Katie Miller’s domain, partying with the least popular and most cruel administration in recent memory.On this episode, Jared and Mike welcome Madeline Peltz, an independent journalist who covers right-wing media, to dig into Vanity Fair’s portrait of Katie Miller as MAGA Washington’s deeply hated hostess. Madeline and the boys also run through a cast of other unsavory MAGA characters, including Andrew Tate, who allegedly possessed eel porn; “Dad Chat” daddy Joshua Lisec, who won’t let Madeline into his event; Megyn Kelly, who wants you to know how ugly sexual assault victims are; and Michael Tracey (again), who went to Cornell to shout at people while dressed like sentient body odor.So, throw your tap water in the garbage like Michael Tracey’s request for time. There are no “brokies” on Posting Through It. We are now en route to white boy heaven.Links for Madeline:Pre-order "GOOD GIRLS AND ALPHA MALES": Source BooksNewsletter: Number Two PencilBlueSky: @peltzmadeline.bsky.social / X: @peltzmadelineInstagram: @peltzmadelineJoin us in New York City on Oct. 28: RSVP Here

147: The Michael Tracey Question [Preview]
Listen to premium episodes on our Patreon: patreon.com/postingthroughit~~Stop us if you've heard this one before: There's a big story about sexual assault in the news and Michael Tracey has gone viral for making women angry. To quote Twin Peaks, “it is happening again.”On this episode, Jared and Mike are joined against by Posting Through It all-star guest Bobby Silverman to survey how low Tracey has stooped since Jane Doe filed her lawsuit in the Cornell 7 case. Tracey has posted jokes about rape while asking his followers to help him identify Jane Doe. In that effort, he cited a shady website that, as Jared discovered, was a thinly veiled hunk of junk. The gang also acts out a direct message conversation between our Mike and Michael Tracey, and Bobby gets a little emotional in the Tracey role. Listeners who make it to the end of this one will find a sampling from Joshua Lisec's "Dad Chat" for divorcing and single MAGA fathers, including an audio clip in which Lisec advises the crew on what to do if their "dick still works."So, join us for an important follow-up to our "Who the Hell is Michael Tracey?" episode. Hide your sordid "proclivities" and always remember: “there are two ways to win, zero ways to lose.”

146: Taxpayer-Funded White Nationalism feat. Greg Sargent
Everyone, likely including the Trump administration itself, understands the racist roots of the word "remigration." Before it appeared in US politics, white nationalists coined the term and amplified it throughout Europe. So if everyone knows this, why has our government chosen to publicly associate with it?The answer may be as simple as "Stephen Miller." Jared and Mike continue their coverage of the most consequential figure in our government, and the architect of its most sadistic policies, in a conversation with Greg Sargent of The New Republic. Sargent, who has done big-picture reporting on Miller's ideology, explains that American taxpayers have been quietly funding a federal "Office of Remigration," and how it relates to the Trump Administration's rhetorical war against "communism."The situation for immigrants is precarious, to put it mildly. But as Stephen Miller himself once said: "Racism must be defeated. Thank you."Links for Greg:Inside Stephen Miller’s Dark Plot to Build a MAGA Terror StateStephen Miller’s MAGA Terror Campaign Exposed by Damning New LeaksPodcast: The Daily Blast with Greg SargentX: @GregTSargent / Bluesky: @gregsargent.bsky.socialJoin us in New York City on Oct. 28: RSVP HereTransition Music: "Any Time Any Place" by Jester Of No Court

145: Meet The New York Times' Favorite Racists [Preview]
Listen to premium episodes on our Patreon: patreon.com/postingthroughit~~~What do Christopher Rufo and Jonathan "Lomez" Keeperman have in common? The New York Times has glazed both of them, and they both peddle pseudo-intellectual racist gibberish. On this Creamium episode, Jared and Mike dig into the wave of anti-Indian racism metastasizing across the online right, culminating in a podcast by Rufo and Keeperman titled "The Indian Question."It's gotten ugly out there for Indians in general within MAGA, and the racist obsession coincides with Indian Americans — from JD Vance's family to Harmeet Dhillon to Vivek Ramaswamy — gaining increased visibility in the movement. Nick Fuentes, one of the biggest ringleaders of anti-Indian racism, has also challenged people with Indian families to embrace who they are and stop hiding. It's the kind of situation you only find yourself in when you're trying to sell white nationalism to an electorate that maybe isn't all that white.This episode offers an illuminating lesson on who liberal elites have determined to be interesting voices in a mainstream hate movement. And we learn that Mike, a Resident Evil enjoyer, has issued his first media fatwa. Tune in to find out who it's about.

144: Content Creators for the Authoritarian State feat. Josh Kovensky
Got a problem with the liberal media? Dispatch a squad of "investigative entertainers": young right-wing creators who pantomime scrappy, on-the-ground reporting while pumping out propaganda for the Trump administration.On this episode, Jared and Mike welcome Josh Kovensky, an investigative reporter at Talking Points Memo who has tracked the administration's collaborations with these types of creators. Together, they walk through a rogues' gallery of the genre: Nick Shirley, the former prank YouTuber whose Minneapolis daycare video earned him a Pulitzer endorsement from JD Vance, and loudmouths Nick Sortor and Cam Higby, who joined the influencer press corps DHS courted in Portland and Minneapolis. They also meet flagpole-injury survivor Katie Daviscourt; TPUSA contributor Savanah Hernandez, whose résumé starts at Infowars; and Tyler Oliveira, whose bigoted "investigations" into Haitian, Somali, Indian, and Hasidic communities push further than even most of his peers dare to go.Democracy dies in darkness, so make sure you keep the ring light on.Links for Josh:Extremely Online: Minnesota ‘Antifa’ Cases Born of Internet Beef With Far-right ActivistsInside the Bizarre Feedback Loop Between DHS and MAGA InfluencersThe Influencer-Administration ComplexX: @joshkovensky / Bluesky: @joshkovensky.bsky.socialThe TPM Social ClubJoin us in NYC on Oct. 28: RSVP HereTransition Music: “Pocket” by Low Gary

143: The Weird, Divorced World of MAGA’s Favorite Writer [Preview]
Listen to premium episodes on our Patreon: patreon.com/postingthroughit~~~Do you hear the whistle blowing? It’s time to embark on your divorce journey with the MAGA movement’s favorite writer: an extremely strange man who wants to hypnotize you. On this episode, Jared and Mike introduce you to Joshua Lisec, a 35 year old man in Ohio who has co-authored books with Trump-era stars like Jack Posobiec, Scott Adams, and Jennica Pounds (aka “@Datarepublican”) and claims to have ghostwritten hundreds more. Lisec recently announced that his wife left him and has started offering himself as a lifeline to other men experiencing their own “divorce journey.”But before they talk about the self-described “celebrity ghostwriter,” the guys examine some recent allegations that Rep. Lauren Boebert had multiple sexual encounters with staffers in her office, including same-sex relationships. Boebert has denied the claims… sort of... and one of the former staffers called them “defamatory.” But considering Boebert’s past escapades, some are finding those denials hard to believe.All aboard!

142: The GOP's Anti-Muslim Midterm Strategy feat. Wajahat Ali
In March, Rep. Andy Ogles declared that Muslims didn't belong in American society. Since then, the broader GOP has leaned harder and harder into anti-Muslim scapegoating, using the same playbook they used to fear monger about transgender people in 2022 and migrant "caravans" in 2018.Jared and Mike are joined by Wajahat Ali to discuss the surge of anti-Muslim bigotry in US politics, JD Vance's obsession with Abdul El-Sayed, an ADL-sponsored event where a speaker said Muslims should leave America go back to their "shithole countries," and more.American Muslims are posting historic political gains, seen in Zohran Mamdani's mayoral election and Abdul El-Sayed's campaign for US Senate in Michigan. Can broadcasting photos of Hasan Piker flexing in his underwear stop it? It seems the GOP is eager to find out.Links for Wajahat:The Left HookDemocracy-ish PodcastX: @WajahatAli / BlueSky: @wajali.bsky.socialOther Links:'FEMDOM' Shirts: Order HereJoin us at NYU on Oct. 28: RSVP HereTransition Music: “The Bottom Line” by Smokescreen

141: Jared is Forced to Defend Macklemore [Preview]
Listen to weekly premium episodes on our Patreon: patreon.com/postingthroughit'FEMDOM' Shirts: Pre-Order HereJoin us at NYU on Oct. 28: RSVP Here---When Macklemore shouted "Free Palestine" on stage in New Jersey last week, the stadium erupted in cheers. This was apparently an unforgivable sin in the eyes of diehard pro-Israel groups like the ADL and stadium owners like Robert Kraft, who successfully pressured Ed Sheeran to drop the rapper from his US tour.In this premium episode, Jared pulls double duty: first explaining the whole saga to Mike, who struggles to understand how either of these guys got famous in the first place, and then — reluctantly — defending Macklemore.Next, fresh out of the Poodle Room, we find PTI mainstay Kash Patel going "beast mode," begging his FBI spokesperson to defend his honor against an offensively named X account and sharing some of his thoughts about bestiality with members of congress.Jared and Mike also look at the recent wave of dystopian buzz around artificial intelligence and a strange new alliance between Bernie Sanders and Steve Bannon on the topic. Finally, they check in on Benny Johnson after recorded an incredibly normal podcast episode with his wife where they repeatedly insist they conceived their children through vaginal sex and that their family is not an AI-generated hoax.
