Fever Dreams

Alt Right Reservoir Dogs feat. Matt Ford

Season 1, Ep. 71

On the latest episode of Fever Dreams, host Will Sommer and guest host Asawin Suebsaeng–returning to the podcast he helped launch– talk about the “little people just riding around the miasma of MAGA-ism”. One of those people is Ray Epps, whose life has been turned upside down by a Jan. 6 conspiracy theory and who's had to go on the run. But the big guys have problems, too. The hosts discuss Trump's reasons for running again in 2024—not least among them, his belief that it's harder to prosecutors to go after him if he's in the Oval Office. And Matt Ford, a writer with the New Republic, delves into the nitty gritty of how exactly we got to where we are as a country with an aggressively rightwing Supreme Court
