Posting Through It

We hope you had a good Valentine's Day last week. If not, there's always the new Free Press matchmaker offshoot from Bari Weiss — and if that doesn't work out either, come join us while we try to make sense of what is happening with A.I.

Specifically, we dig into the strange situation surrounding Scott Adams' post-death A.I. talk show, which has cropped up on social media somewhat mysteriously in recent weeks. His fa...

Grassroots organizers have increasingly used the messaging app Signal to coordinate responses to MAGA authoritarianism. It remains the best messaging app available, but the “ICE Out” protests in Minneapolis demonstrated how regime propagandists and corrupt law enforcement can attack and exploit it. Influencers entered public-facing Signal chats and ferried the information there to Kash Patel’s FBI. 

In this PTI Bulletin, Bill Buding...

Midterm elections are approaching and early polling shows it's poised to be a bloodbath for the MAGA movement. But Americans may be in for a wild November, thanks to a crew of brain-rotted election denialists now working inside the US government. (One of them happens to be the president.)

Hunter Walker, an investigative reporter at Talking Points Memo, has been following the MAGA movement's efforts to upend American democracy for mo...

Bawitdabadabangdadangdiggydoogy, our name is Postiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin' THROUGH IT. 

Jared and Mike have covered the TPUSA halftime show from its inception and despite insistence from their individual psychotherapists they see no reason to stop now. Hear the hosts breakdown how the event happened, what TPUSA wanted to accomplish and what they actually accomplished—a very grim, objectively stupid representation of a racist alt...

This edition of Posting Through It's acclaimed "Who the Hell?" series profiles right-wing podcast host Steven Crowder. Jared and Mike are joined by Byron McKoy, co-host of the podcast Louder Than Crowder, to explore how Crowder emerged as one of the Trump-era's flagship media programs and how his career started to unravel in recent years.

Together, they retrace the arc of Crowder's life and career to explai...

The Jeffrey Epstein story will never die. Jared and Mike report back on the many scandals embedded in the latest drop, while paying acute attention to Epstein’s relationship to MAGA and the radical right. (Unlike Nick Fuentes, our podcast is not selling Jeffrey Epstein branded quarter-zips.) The hosts move on to talk about TPUSA’s alternative Super Bowl halftime show, which features a few names you'll definitely forget a few mi...

Jared and Mike speak with seasoned national security reporter Ken Klippenstein about the expansion of national surveillance programs targeting anti-ICE activists and community organizers, alongside others they consider threats to the MAGA political agenda. While DHS denies that the agency maintains databases of so-called "domestic terrorists," Ken's reporting revealed that to be plainly untrue.

Ken shares what he's learned about...

Minneapolis has changed America in ways we can’t even process yet, but in the short term it has sent the MAGA movement into a spiral of lying, propagandizing, and coping—the likes of which we haven’t quite seen before. 

Jared and Mike dip into some grim polling numbers for Trump and ICE before pivoting to the shit they’re currently selling: Antifa boogeymen, entirely nonexistent paid protesters, and whistles. Yes, whistles. 

A crew o...

Jared and Mike welcome media columnist and reporter Justin Baragona. They discuss the latest execution by ICE agents in Minneapolis and initial reactions from MAGA media before turning their focus to what's been going on at CBS News under the direction of its new ideologically driven leader: Bari Weiss. 

Since the network's owners hired Weiss to be its editor in chief in October 2025, she's been slowly remaking CBS News in her own i...

[Black metal voice] KRRRRRRAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!

It’s time for something cringe! No, it’s not wearing corpse paint. It’s far worse: Nick Fuentes, the Tate Brothers, Clavicular, Sneako, the ever insufferable Myron Gaines and a list of random orbiters infested a Miami Beach club to bang Ye’s pro-Hitler rap anthem. Jared and Mike talk about that bullshit, alongside Fuentes' alleged monster deal to hawk gold, and his new pivot to Jeffrey ...

No story has defined 2026 quite like the federal invasion of Minneapolis, which grows more alarming by the day. Fears are mounting that Trump will invoke the Insurrection Act and deploy 1,500 US Army troops from Alaska, who are specialized in cold weather operations, and make a scary situation even scarier. The hosts trace the cascading fallout from an ICE officer fatally shooting Renee Good, from MAGA's disturbing social media...

Jared and Mike bid farewell to MAGA legend Scott Adams, who died of cancer at age 68 on January 13, 2026, with a special installment of their "Who the Hell?" biographical series.

Adams was one of the earliest breakout MAGA influencers, gaining attention for his early support of Donald Trump in 2015 and his pseudoscientific explanations of his cultural rise. The "Dilbert" comic strip creator remained true to form ...

On this two-part episode, Mike and Jared explore how Grok, the AI chatbot built into Elon Musk's platform X, generates and distributes child sex abuse material and revenge porn. They're joined by Kat Tenbarge, an independent journalist who covers tech. Kat explains the history of "deepfakes" and how Musk's platform fits into a pattern of men manipulating tech to exploit women. After that, the guys speak with former MAGA influencer ...

It hasn’t been a pleasant start to the year. Jared and Mike scramble the jets to accommodate the horror in Minneapolis, coming to terms with the culture that makes opponents of MAGA expendable in the eyes of the regime and its propagandists. They pivot to another Minneapolis story, Nick Shirley and his age gap content co-creator, who recently started ringing doorbells looking for a place to drop off their “Little Joey.” The hosts a...

Jared and Mike wish you all a Happy J6, as we... uh... "celebrate" the fifth anniversary of the US Capitol Riot. They're joined by award-winning British journalist James Ball to reflect on what's happened to the field of "anti-disinformation" research and journalism. Those efforts peaked around the 2020 election, then almost completely fell apart. What happened for things to go so wrong? And what, if anything, can be done to keep t...

Mike and Jared check in during the post-holiday lull to answer questions submitted by their Patreon supporters. They share their takes on the state of the news media industry, explain how they got started covering the Radical Right, check in on the careers of Jacob Wohl and Jack Burkman, and much more.

Settle in with "hot chocolate mimosa" and come hang for this casual Q&A before we take off on the second year of Posti...

It's the final episode of Posting Through It for 2025. To close out a very weird year, Jared and Mike share a New Year's toast, review the 10 best (worst) political takes that passed over our timelines this year, and listen to voicemails submitted by friends of the show. 

This episode includes audio messages from (in the order they appear): Will Stancil, Bobby Silverman, Hannah Gais, Michelangelo Signorile, Eoin Higgins, Eli...

Break out your eggnog and seasonal lingerie because the boys from Posting Through It have your holy day covered. Jared and Mike tackle TPUSA’s AmericaFest, which featured Erika Kirk Freudian-slipping the word “grift,” Ben Shapiro firing shots at other influencers, and Nicki Minaj sliding down the chimney to praise Trump. A Posting Through It listener shares a dispatch from the scene of… what I guess you would call a James O’Keefe r...
