neoliberalhell – Details, episodes & analysis

Jake Hanrahan (founder of Popular Front) is a conflict journalist and documentary filmmaker who is a legitimately disrupter in alternative news media. His page, Popular Front, uses his roots as a former Vice reporter to give the world honest, unbiased gonzo journalism that has a lot of heart and a lot of perspectives you won't see anywhere else. We sit down with Jake for 2 hours (FULL INTERVIEW ON PATREON) to discuss the current conflicts in Gaza and Ukraine, criticize more unruly war journalists, and of course, as always, to condemn violence.

This week, Ana & Matthew switch it up and record an episode at Ana's spot. They sit down with very tall dudes, Kareem Rahma and Adam Faze, who created the TikTok taxi show Keep The Meter Running where Kareem has NYC cabbies take him to where they want to go (nice lil uno reverse). They discuss some wacky stories in producing the show, The Grammys, the Chinese spy balloon and Kareem's song "Really Rich Parents", the music video for which Ana had a starring role in.

[The term "buccalsexual" is not mentioned even one time on this podcast but I thought it sounded buzzy and meaningless enough to work as the title so there ya go.]

On this segmented special episode, Ana & Matthew dive into the concept of "clout". 

They start off one-on-one by discussing the origins of the term and it's evolution, and react to some clout-themed cultural touchstones. Then, they take their theory and turn it into praxis at the [redacted] Club where they were tasked with hosting for the night. This segment is the first Neoliberalhell live pod and they ask lawyers, randos and NLH orbiters "how do you get clout in NYC?". 

THEN, after that, they do a postgame of the night and realize that clout is more sinister and vapid that they had originally thought. 

As the editor of the show, I really enjoyed this one because you get an entire pre, intra and post clout event experience in real time. This was one of the more fun episodes we've ever recorded so we hope you enjoy it!!! 

Oh yeah and fuck @swagaholics20 

This week's Patreon only episode features comedian, actor and former "Dicks Out For Harambe" popularizer. Ana & Matthew talk to him about his start in comedy, his insane Adelphi University show and Beetlejuice Green.

Then, we end the episode on a schwifty note with a dramatic reading of Rick and Morty creator Justin Roiland's lewd messages to teen fans.
