After one of our lengthy breaks we return with out first podcast in the Post-Trent Era. Today we're talking about the non economic reasons for western separation, which we feel haven't been talked about enough in the current discourse on the issue. Though we make you sit through a half hour of conversation on AI before we get to it.

Well we fall down a rabbit hole right out of the gate, and I wish I could say it gets better, but it's kind of rabbit hole central with this episode.

Nevertheless we persist and attempt to discuss if there's any moral equivalency between the Iranian regime's killing of some thousands of its citizens in the wake of mass protests in that country and the US Government's killing of 2 citizens in Minnesota in protests against immigration enforcement.

I'm not sure that enjoy is the right word, but hopefully you find something to think about.

With apologies for the 4 month hiatus, we're back. We've once again managed to assemble our crack production team of top men, and assembled an episode. It all starts with Trump and goes downhill from there. We get into TDS, corrupt capitalism, private sector unions and Che among other digressions. I'm not sure enjoy is the right word, but it's a word.

Today Paddy and Steve are without Trent's moderating influence and talking about what happens next in the context of the murder of Charlie Kirk. Where does the conservative movement go after this and how do they conduct themselves?

Does the progressive left moderate itself, or does it carry on as it has previously.

Paddy was catastrophizeing (that's a word) this week about the impending collapse of the liberal order and the western world more broadly, so we decided to work through that this week. I don't think enjoy is quite the right word for the result, but here it is.

We reconvene today, after our prolonged absence to ask some questions about the homelessness epidemic that seems to be North America wide. There was talking. There was yelling. Nothing was solved. Hopefully we're on our way to asking better questions.

Today we're exploring the issue our current level of political disorder and violence and how it compares to the upheaval of the late 1960s and early 1970s. We wander around rhetorically as we normally do, and at some point Paddy tries to blame it on immigration. We hope you enjoy.

Also the opening theme has come back and it will stick around for a while. Sorry to anyone that annoys.

We made it! Episode 49. As your reward (punishment?) for sticking with us for this long, we give you an episode of navel gazing about why and how we came to call this thing Radio Free Ortona and why episode 49 is more important to us than episode 50. Thanks for listening and we're sorry.
