    Hello everyone! We are back this week with an all new episode coming straight to you. First we have Putin bringing talks of using nukes into the conversation about the Ukraine/Russia War. Did he actually threaten to nuke the US, or is NATO propaganda just spinning his statements to get people to continue to support the war?  Next up, Chris is back with a brand new history lesson. There have been massive protests in Iran that were sparked by the death of a young lady at the hands of their morality police. Its caused women all of the country to risk their lives by taking off their hijabs, and some are even shaving their heads. So lets take a deep dive into the history of this country to try and understand how it got to this point. Spoiler alert, as is true with so many countries, a lot of it has to do with the US constantly fucking with them. #TheAltLeftPodcast #IranRevolution #IranProtests2022  #IranianLivesMatter #Putin #Putins #nuclearweapons  Reminder to all that for every 50 subscribers we get on Spotify, we'll do a special episode where our listeners will get to be involved!

    Hello everyone and welcome back. There is a ton of stuff going on this week, so lets talk about it. First and foremost is the potential railway strike. Biden and every other politician think the potential hit to the economy is more important than workers being treated like humans. We disagree. Next we have Governor Ron DeSantis literally kidnaping a bunch of immigrants from a DIFFERENT STATE, and shipping them to a Martha's Vineyard in an hilariously failed attempt to "own the libs." Lastly, Lindsey Graham has demonstrated for everyone that Republicans never gave a damn about states rights, and only ever wanted to control women.  So as you can see, it's been a week of complete fuckery and we are bringing it straight to you.

    Hello everyone and welcome back. As chris will let you know, we had planned a really great interview with the head editor from Left Coast Right Watch, but our audio files decided to take a shit. Luckily, Joe Biden decided to make a speech about the right being semi-fascist, while being oblivious to the fact that the optics of his speech are very easily compared to scenes from V for Vendetta. So lets talk about it. Who are the fascists? Who are the semi-fascists? Are the Democrats really about to turn a corner on this election cycle, or are people just so desperate for a win that they are ignoring reality?

    Hello everyone and welcome back! This week we are talking about the January 6th hearings, the odd way the media is idolizing Mike Pence, and how the supreme court has decided that the 4th amendment is no longer applicable to anyone living within 100 miles of any US boarder. Yes friends, we are certainly in the darkest time. Is there any light ahead? We talk about it all on this week's episode of The Alt Left Podcast #TheAltLeftPodcast #january6thcommitteehearing #January6 #4thAmendment #SupremeCourt Don't forget about our listener bonuses!

    Episode 74 - Is Change from within Possible?

    Hello everyone and welcome back! The original topic for this weeks episode was a discussion on current events. Things like the Novavax Vaccine, The attempted murder of Justice Brett Kavanaugh, etc. But as per usual, the three of us went on a tangent and the episode turned into a debate on whether or not change from within is even possible today. It's an important question and it forms the foundation for a lot of the lefts political beliefs. Which begs the question, where do all of you stand? Are you a reformist who thinks that change from within is possible, or are you a revolutionary that thinks the system is fundamentally broken and the only way to fix it is to tear it down and start over? Its an important distinction and one that will drive the future of political discourse on the left. So sit back, relax, and enjoy this week's infighting episode of The Alt Left Podcast. #TheAltLeftPodcast #Revolution #Reformist #Revolutionary #TheSystemIsBroken #Leftists #Democrats #Republicans Don't forget about our listener bonuses!

    Hello everyone and welcome back. This week we are joined by a special guest. He's the host of a podcast called Price Of Avocado Toast, but before that, he was a cop. Justin was kind enough to come on this week and tell us about is experience of joining the force. That's right folks, we have a bon-a-fide former police officer who agreed to talk to us this week. Justin's story is a fascinating one. He decided to become a cop for all of the right reasons. Went through the academy, graduated with several commendations,  and then deciding to quit after just 10 days of seeing what kind of person he would be forced to become. It's a fascinating story the highlights exactly the kind of problematic environments our police officers are "trained in." Thank you again to Justin for joining us this week and one more special thanks to our boy, Stauffy for helping to make this happen.

    Hello, everyone! This week we are talking about what happened in Uvalde Texas. Once again, the US is forced to face that we have a problem that no other nation has, and once again, the people we have elected to fix it are doing nothing. Its the same old political theater. The Dems pitch a bunch of ideas that wont actually stop the majority of these insane killers, and the Republicans try desperately to avoid addressing anything until they are eventually forced to make some half assed comments about mental health. It's the same old song and dance where all any of them are doing is trying to get a few soundbites and win some cheap political points, so they can get elected, and then do nothing to fix any problems or help anyone.  I wish we had some fun or silly way to end this description, but we don't. This shit is fucking horrible and we are tired of seeing kids get killed because elected officials care more about lining their pockets than about helping the people who elected them. #FuckDemocrats #FuckRepublicans #EnoughIsEnough #TheAltLeftPodcast #uvaldetexas #UvaldePoliceCowards #ACAB #UvaldeMassacre #GunViolence Don't forget about our listener bonuses!
