We go over why McCain refuses to stop using racial slurs, setting bombing campaigns to pop music, and whether we agree with Donald Trump's assessment of McCain.

This episode is a live taping we did with PRINCETON historian Matt Karp. Matt talks about Frederick Douglas, the Civil War, the inspiration he takes from the periodic over throw of the ruling class, themistake the Dems make in courting woke Goldman Sachs, and the value of "Bernie Would have Won". Matt's analysis of the Kansas special election is especially relevant to Ossoff's loss.

On this live taping of The Katie Halper Show, we talk to writer Angela Nagle (Kill All Normies) & Freddie DeBoer live and in person! We talk about free speech, why "No Platforming" is so annoying as a term and a practice, what a better word for it is, and one of the most annoying things about the Alt Right. DeBoer and Nagle make a great argument against no platforming from the Left.

We talk to writer, essayist and extremely smart (not JUST because of his British accent) person Sam Kriss about the British elections. Who will win? Why? When? How? Where? Why do Donald Trump and Theresa cling to each other, physically? And spiritually? Is Barack Obama more like Corbyn or Le Pen? The answer just might surprise you!
