Ah... the smell of Polling Day in the morning. As the (for now) United States of America go to the polls this episode is (mostly) dedicated to discussion of Harris vs Trump with Isaac-Davy Aronson supervising producer at US news network MSNBC and co-presenter of the excellent podcast Déjà News alongside Rachel Maddow.But it's not all stars & stripes... oh no. This episode contains a mini-history lesson on Britain's biggest loser (insert your own cheap Liz Truss gag here) Guy Fawkes. It's the most explosive episode of Trash Talk yet. Until the one about the emerging US Civil War later in the week. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Long before Governor Ron DeSantis declared a new war on wokeness, Florida lawmakers in the 1950s and 60s tried going after the NAACP, suspected communists and gay people in Florida schools and universities.

Now that DeSantis is bringing this playbook to a presidential campaign, Rachel Maddow and Isaac-Davy Aronson ask what we can learn from the last time Florida went down this path. Featuring guests:Stacy Braukman, author of Communists and Perverts Under the Palms: The Johns Committee in Florida, 1956-1965Shevrin Jones, Florida State SenatorRobert Buccellatto, historian and co-host of the Florida History Podcast
