Minion Death Cult

TODAY: Ani joins us to discuss a perplexing dilemma causing vigorous debate online: Do you have to take your daughter fishing even though she's basically a woman and might cramp your style? A mother writes to reddit explaining her daughter no longer wants to spend time with her dad after he refused to take her on a "guys only" fishing trip. Is the daughter really hurt, or is the mother just cheating on her husband? ALSO: We look at Teamsters president Sean O'Brien's recent comments about Right to Work and his support for a labor secretary who defends the anti-union policy. What are teamsters getting out of O'Brien's support for this labor secretary? Is it worth legitimizing the right wing administration? We dredge the depths of Teamster and UPS facebook groups to gauge rank and file reaction to O'Brien's budding relationship with the reactionary forces in Trump's camp and uncover some not-so-convincing arguments for RTW from union members themselves.

TODAY: We give an update on Alex's goo situation and Tony makes the cowardly decision not to get jumped at his bar. ALSO: We join Teamsters president Sean O'Brien in congratulating former UPS and Amazon exec being appointed to OSHA. Why is a boss having his reputation laundered by a labor leader? Is "former worker" a high bar to clear? PLUS: An anonymous UPS Teamster complains that his union won't allow him to prep his route off the clock. We commend rank and file for stepping up to educate this member, discuss working off the clock as well as the merits of dealing in good faith with fellow members--even when they regurgitate anti-union propaganda.

TODAY: We discuss Kanye's latest epic turn towards standard right wing hitlerism, including rehabilitating accused sex criminal kingpins like Puff Daddy. Talk about a meeting of the minds! We discuss the broader absurdity of antisemitism and the way it sheepdogs discontented workers away from a coherent class politics. ALSO: A Maine farmer livestreams his shootout with police because Maine likes gay people and abortion too much and NOT because he lost custody of the child he's refusing to give up.

Sorry about the delay, folks! TODAY: We read an OP-ED from business insider beseeching the public to stop throwing things at the author's Cybertruck. She needs it for work (psychologist). Plus its full-self driving feature reduces stress, which is really important to your physical health. ALSO: A story of one of Tony's customers disrespectfully blocking other cars in the parking lot, and a story of Alex steadfastly blocking other people in with his work truck to prove an important point.   FINALLY: DEI helicopter pilot hits DEI jet pilot? What are the odds? Now we're hearing it wasn't DEI??? But a different fake thing? Did God (Matt Groening) crash these aircraft into each other? We investigate the comments to find out.

TODAY: We correctly choose not to cover the tariffs (now placed on hold) and instead turn to the very funny news of a Chinese AI model destroying the American Stock Market We sample the coping and seething of american tech parasites and beg China to do the right thing and fix Facebook ALSO: Tony shares a bizarre story about a dumpster-f*cker that he's really good friends with PLUS: A vigilante tries to deport a couple guys for speaking spanish. We watch the viral video of his hateful, racist performance and commend a bystander for stepping in.

TODAY: Ani joins us to observe the further nazification of this country with news of the young, black, self-hating groyper who killed another student and himself while leaving behind a manifesto filled with hopelessness and internet-poisoned ideology. We watch the right wing once again try to obscure the results of their destructive ideology by focusing on the shooter's race, and we connect this to the shameless denial around Elon Musk's recent Nazi salute. ALSO: The Trump administration vows to apprehend undocumented migrants at schools and churches, leading teachers across the country to vow to defend their students from ICE. Libs of Tik Tok and others on the right reaffirm their commitment to evil with fantasies about punishing teachers for protecting students--while refusing to acknowledge the substance of their fears FINALLY: One post-left dissident has the courage to ask--now that we've blown up anti-racism and started processing human filth for mass deportation, can we help ease the pain of factory-far

TODAY: JF and DB of YKS join US to call on Reddit investors to bring vicious, anti-Musk mods to heel before they destroy the entire site with their bigotry We also watch the #1 dork in charge of tattling on Reddit be radicalized into holocaust-denial in real time by the website (X) he's defending. ALSO: Not content to rest on their laurels, the Babylon Bee is cultivating the next generation of sardonic satirists with a User Submitted Headlines social media forum available only to $60/subscribers and up.  We read through clever and playful headlines like "Trump Says That It's OK If Someone Wants To Work From Home. However, If They Do, Then Their Pay Will Be Cut In Half Since They No Longer Have To Deal With The Price And Aggravation Of Having To Commute To And From Their Jobs Daily." and wonder how these cats haven't gone professional yet.  FINALLY: An Intersex???? Moose??? A local news station reports on a hunter's interesting (or gross!!!) discovery and Facebook conservatives react with angry confusion. Is t

TODAY: We uncover and discuss a different type of racism dividing the working class: Truck Driver Supremacy, as Alex shares an annoying argument with a Bezos-boosting Teamster who insists on making the union smaller. ALSO: Trump has an "impressive" 3-hour meeting with Bill Gates, leading many Trump supporters to go "Huh?" Was Trump holding this meeting against his will? Was the meeting a ploy to get Bill Gates' confession on tape? Either way Trump probably didn't like it.

WE'RE BACK: Today we discuss Facebook's new(?) embiggoting policy and what it means for the Minion Death Cult LLC™ Also: Zuck's incredible new Masculine identity and the real dangers of feminine business culture (Lina Kahn's FTC suing you) PLUS: Tom MacDonald launders his Trump daddy fetish through once-beloved 90's sitcom mom Roseanne to declare "Daddy's Home," a collaborative rap filled with his usual zero-effort 10 and 20 year-old memes. FINALLY: 9 Year old's parents want a Trump tattoo on her neck, good samaritan Tattoo artist convinces her to get american flag instead. People get mad at him?

ALSO: Work is freakin' pissin' Alex off so he BLOWS OFF SOME STEAM!!!!!!!!!!!

TODAY: We voice appreciation for the year's positive developments like an intriguing facebook friend request (a harbinger of wealth and success, perhaps) and a cop getting thrown from a speeding convertible. ALSO: Facebook shows us the damning truth about the Suffragettes (they were really cool) and we find out about girl math (cancelling out your husband's vote) PLUS: Our quest to learn more about feminist terrorism leads us to some prime reactionary posts and a guy who blames the recent Las Vegas terrorist explosion on a feminist plot (read: divorce).

TODAY: Ani's in the cohost Chair and Brett Payne of Street Fight Radio, Relatively Unknown, and our friendship returns to the show to talk about neo-Nazis being pummeled by Columbus OH residents at their last attempted march. Are all racists feds? Or maybe gay, anti-Trump Republicans? Russians? And is there any difference between Nazis and anti-genocide activists anyway? PLUS: A San Fransisco Slimeball pimp-turned-anti-homeless-activist-turned-alleged-pimp-again, Raw Ricci, is arrested. We look at his awful viral rise to fame and the sensible centrist politicians who aided him. We also learn about fans of Ricci's poverty porn harassment-style content and learn their not very surprising opinions about him being arrested for pimping and assaulting a minor.

TODAY: We ring in the new year by checking in on the MAGA movement a month before Trump is set to take office, and things are not great. A civil war erupts between white nationalist Trump supporters and a tech elite insistent on the necessity of poaching cheaper, more precarious immigrant labor over American workers. We watch the right wing discover class consciousness in spite of their hyper-fixation on race and witness "good" Indians like Dinesh D'Souza prostrate themselves before their racist base while Vivek gives Uneducated Whites the scolding of a lifetime. PLUS: Teamsters President Sean O'Brien shares details of the union's meeting with the Kamala Harris campaign and makes staggering claims about her behavior: refusing to answer most of the union's questions, leaving early, and refusing a press conference. We ask whether Kamala should've b***** slapped that motha effa and do the Democrats really need labor anyway?

TODAY: We review the bizarre new "holiday" special from the scrooged-up (racist) mind of Ventriloquist Jeff Dunham. We marvel at the special's bizarre premise: a 1-hour setup for a Jeff Dunham Christmas Carol... that will supposedly happen next year. We enter the child-like minds of Jeff and his audience to analyze his and his audience's sometimes unsuccessful attempts at racism and anti-gay bigotry. And we meet a new, semi-professional ventriloquist dummy which by all accounts seems to be a quality product available for purchase this holiday season.

“This train is half a mile long traveling at speed into highly populated areas with 8 freight cars of hazardous chemicals and 5,000 gallons of diesel fuel. We’re talking about a missile the size of the Chrysler building.” TODAY: Liam and Rocz from Well There’s Your Problem join us to cover the Tony Scott / Denzel Washington runaway train joint Unstoppable. Who are these anti-union railroad workers and why do they hate new-hires so much? Will Denzel’s mystical connection to trains save the day? Will Chris Pine’s wife’s cop boyfriend lift the restraining order? Will the guilty rail workers be held responsible? Will this film be held responsible for its numerous rail goofs? Yes.

It's finally here! the episode we recorded on Sunday before anyone knew who the United Health shooter was or whether he'd be caught. Luckily I correctly predicted he would be a principled maoist third-worldist. TODAY: We talk about the assassination celebrated by Americans across the political spectrum, the stern lecture given to us by the political and pundit class, and flailing attempts to distract from the anti-capitalist, populist politics the shooter seemed to be acting on. PLUS: An acquaintance proves her allyship to Tony, and Alex describes the movie Michael where John Travolta plays a cool angel named Michael Get a bonus episode every week by signing up at http://patreon.com/miniondeathcult for only $5/month   

When patriot Mike rescues feminist Ricki from a post-Trump rally riot, the clash of opposites sets off sparks between them. But the gentleman giant refuses to leave the side of the spunky half-pint until he and his pickup truck deliver her home, safe and sound. Ricki attends the rally to scoop the racism of the Trump crowd in a blog post. But she's forced to spin a false narrative when her mistaken assumptions fail to materialize. When Ricki's lies get Mike doxed, and his construction worksite becomes the target of antifascist thugs, his righteous anger forces her to reckon with the truth. Ricki wants to fix the damage and regain Mike's trust. But that means facing the wrath of the liberal mobs. Will Ricki find the courage to leave the left for a lifetime of old-fashioned true love?
