Podcast: Deplorapalooza - Trump Supporters Storm the Capitol
We recorded this podcast shortly after the Capitol riot of January 6, 2021. At the time, tensions were so high that, in all honesty, we were afraid to publish it on our website or share it on any of our social media channels. In the wake of the event, social media accounts - most notably, the president’s - were being canceled left and right, and we didn’t want to take any chances, lest we offend the wrong tech God and have our project effectively canceled. Because of this, only our enlisted podcast subscribers and a few fortunate podcast browsers got to hear it, making this our “lost episode,” if you will.
Now that we’re on substack - a platform committed to free speech - and that a year has passed, making discussion of the events of 1/6 a bit freer than they were at the time of this recording, we decided to republish it on this platform.
We’ve got a lot more subscribers and followers now than we did a year ago, and honestly, the title (Deplorapalooza) is too good not to milk for all it’s worth. So we hope you enjoy the discussion - click the player below to check it out.
