030: Did the 'Alt-Right' Win? feat. Hannah Gais Aug 18, 2025

Hannah Gais is a researcher and journalist who covers far-right extremism. She joins the show to look back on the white nationalist “alt-right” movement, eight years after the deadly Unite the Right white supremacist gathering in Charlottesville, Virginia. While the movement today is a shadow of its former self, the ideology that drove it seems as mainstream as ever. On this episode, we explore an uncomfortable question: did the alt-right accomplish its goals?

029: Should Anyone Debate the Far-Right? feat. Mehdi Hasan Aug 11, 2025

Mehdi Hasan, a journalist renowned for confronting power directly and dismantling opponents in political debates, joined Posting Through It to reflect on his viral appearance on "Surrounded" — a YouTube debate show that recruited him to argue against 20 "far-right conservatives."

Over nearly two hours, his opponents took turns sitting across from him and espousing racist bigotries, antisemitic conspiracy theories, and anti-democratic beliefs. When the cameras stopped rolling, Mehdi said one participant stood up and declared: "Left or Right, we all hate the Jews."

"No one said a word," Mehdi recalled.

The episode's explosive popularity (10.2 million views on YouTube alone) has reignited debates about "platforming" extremism and whether engaging with the far-right this way serves any constructive purpose. On this episode, we explore those criticisms with Mehdi, discuss his “hygiene tests” for debates, and explore why so many people who try to face off against the far-right end up failing.

027: Who the Hell is Dave Portnoy? feat. Robert Silverman Jul 28, 2025

Dave Portnoy has leveraged his digital media empire — Barstool Sports — to amass so much political influence that there’s a term for it: "Barstool Conservatism."

It also reflects on Portnoy’s influence within the broader MAGA movement and “manosphere.”

Max Rizzuto and Alyssa Kann are researchers at the Digital Forensic Research Lab (DFRLab) who Jared used to work with.

Big Disinfo (9/16/21) ft/ Joe Bernstein Sep 17, 2021

Joseph Bernstein is a senior reporter for BuzzFeed News. He joins SH!TPOST this week to discuss the overly simplistic story of online disinformation that many American audiences have been sold. Joe encourages those interested in understanding online disinformation to pause and recognize several fundamental issues with the way some of our current conversations have been framed. These flaws, he argues, are not an end-all to the study of disinformation; rather, he hopes that addressing them will produce better work that contributes to stronger public knowledge.

The End is Neigh (9/1/21) ft/ Vera Bergengruen Sep 01, 2021

Vera Bergengruen is a Washington correspondent for Time Magazine who joins the show to explain why some unvaccinated people are seeking out Ivermectin as a supposed shield against COVID-19. Demand for the drug has overwhelmed many pharmacies, leaving some so desperate in their hunt that they’ve bought and ingested horse paste and other livestock drugs that contain Ivermectin as an active ingredient. At least it’s apple flavored.

CPAC in Texas (7/13/21) ft/ Zachary Petrizzo Jul 14, 2021

(Note: Because host Jared Holt is traveling, his audio quality on this episode is less than normal episodes. He’ll be back in his home studio in August.)
Salon reporter Zachary Petrizzo joins SH!TPOST to share observations from his weekend covering CPAC’s 2021 summer gathering in Dallas, Texas. Petrizzo describes the scenes in the conservative movement’s Lonestar State gathering as an anything-goes spinoff of the national flagship event, where fringe and far-right cultural elements jockeyed for prominence over a receding movement conservatism.

Joining SH!TPOST is P.R. guy, writer, and Joker-meme enthusiast Ed Zitron, who wrote a fantastic essay this week that confronts the ways newsrooms have failed to respond to bad-faith internet harassment campaigns against their reporters made in service of right-wing political causes.

Where We Go One We Go Y'all (6/2/21) ft/ Steven Monacelli Jun 02, 2021

Over Memorial Day weekend and deep in the heart of Texas, powerful MAGA political figures and QAnon believers joined together for a wild-west themed conference inside an event venue made to look like a cowboy town. Joining SH!TPOST is Protean Mag publisher and independent journalist Steven Monacelli, who spent time at the conference incognito.
Correction note from Steven: “I mentioned a salute done by Brace Belden that I erroneously described as a "Daesh" salute. That salute has broader and more general use in the Islamic world. It was effectively hijacked by Daesh and I regret associating it with them as such.”

Make 'Em Mad (4/1/21) ft/ Parker Molloy Apr 01, 2021

Lil Nas X sneakers, Potato Head, Dr. Seuss, and more; right-wing media in the U.S. has spent the Biden era so far hopping from manufactured outrage to manufactured outrage, riling up their audiences along the way. What was once a hallmark of YouTube grifters seeking clicks has seemingly consumed the mainstream GOP.

Programming Note (4/17/20) Apr 17, 2020

SH!TPOST will be temporarily moving to a biweekly release schedule until further notice because the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic has dominated all news and will likely continue to do so for the foreseeable future. This schedule change will start immediately; the next full-length episode will release on April 27, 2020. SH!TPOST will return to its normal weekly release schedule when news pertaining to the show’s coverage area picks back up.
I have paused Substack paid subscriptions for SH!TPOST until I resume weekly releases as normal. Your payment information and subscription status will be saved in Substack, so there will be no need to resubscribe when regular releases resume.

Bonus Interview for Subscribers Jun 13, 2019

In this bonus interview, which paid subscribers to SH!TPOST get an exclusive first listen to, I speak with Caleb Cain—a young man radicalized and then de-radicalized on YouTube—about one of the questions I get most often. If you meet someone who has been radicalized online, how do you reach out to them?
I include the caveat that the responsibility of de-radicalization is not one that every person should take upon themselves; depending on the individuals involved, it can sometimes put folks in harm’s way. But for those up to the task, Caleb shares some tips on talking to people who are in a spot he found himself when he was at his most extreme.
