The Trump administration's national security team is in place, and the intelligence community is feeling the shock. Elon Musk's "Department of Government Efficiency" has infiltrated federal agencies, intelligence officials are resigning or being purged, and US allies are questioning how much they can still trust Washington. In this episode, The Atlantic's Shane Harris joins Matt to assess the state of the US intelligence community one month into Trump's second term. They discuss the FBI shake-up under Kash Patel and Dan Bongino, Musk's DOGE operatives posing an unprecedented counterintelligence risk, and whether Five Eyes can survive another four years. Plus, is the intelligence community still a viable career path for those who believe in its mission?

On today's episode, Washington Post national security reporter and friend of the show, Shane Harris, joins Matt to discuss last week's historic prisoner exchange between the US and Russia, securing the release of several prominent journalists and pro-democracy activists. Shane dives into his reporting on the swap, detailing months of delicate negotiations, who the Russians got in return, and touches on the complicated question of whether these exchanges incentivize autocrats like Putin to take hostage more Westerners and journalists to extract concessions from their governments.

On today's episode, The Washington Post's Pulitzer Prize-winning intelligence correspondent, Shane Harris, joins Matt to discuss the “Discord Leaks” and the air national guardsman who, earlier this week, pleaded guilty to charges of willful retention and transmission of US national defense information, an act that's been called the largest disclosure of classified material in years. Shane shares his reporting on who this man is, what he leaked, and his bewildering motivations for doing so.

Garrett and Brendan start this Tuesday show with a discussion of Talor Gooch's ongoing battle with the USGA over an exemption-category change that may keep him out of the 2023 U.S. Open (4:18). They touch on the various sides of the conflict, from the potential rationales for the USGA's position to the behavior of Gooch, Phil Mickelson, and other LIV players during the conflict. Garrett and Brendan also address whether the USGA could have avoided this fight—or at least prevented it from staying in the news for weeks. For the second segment, Garrett brings on Shane Ryan (@ShaneRyanHere) to discuss his recent on-the-ground reporting on how the PGA Tour enforces its pace-of-play standards (32:48). Read Shane's article for Golf Digest HERE. Finally, Brendan returns to talk with Garrett about the storylines they're tracking this week in golf (1:04:13).

The Auckland Climate Plan sets a target of reducing GHG emissions by half by 2030. Now, we know that largest single chunk of Auckland’s emissions – that’s 37% - comes from land transport. So to achieve that bold target, transport emissions need to fall by a massive 64% - in just 10 years. That puts Shane Ellison in the hot seat. Shane is the chief executive of Auckland Transport, the council-owned company that manages Auckland transport network, from trains and busses, to roads, tunnels, footpaths and cycleways. Shane recently wrote a piece in the NZ Herald setting out the scale of the challenge. Vincent asked him how serious this challenge is, what needs to be done and why cycling in Auckland still sucks, big time.Full disclosure: Vincent helped Shane write the NZ Herald article in his capacity as a public relations consultant. But the data and the opinions are all Shane’s – and this interview was not paid for.Read Shane’s article hereRead the Climate Plan hereRead Todd Niall’s excellent summary here
A Brief History of Reel Rap Shane and Bennett started Reel Rap in the summer of 2017. Bennett became a professional podcaster and a “Chicken Guy” at the local supermarket on the same day. In Boston, Shane was growing mushrooms in his apartment and was oft mistaken for a mentally ill escapee of the local hospital, moonlighting as a barback at an upscale hotel bar.Reel Rap has its origins in the middlebrow fare that most filmgoers have forgotten. Bennett and Shane have shared formative film experiences, but they haven’t centered on blockbusters and big hits. On the big screen (the Silver), the boys have paid to see slop like The Descendants and nodded politely side by side. On the small screen (the silver), they’ve idly yipped and hollered through all manner of would-be Oscar bait and mid-budget action movies.The first season found the boys working in familiar middlebrow territory. A fascination with How the Grinch Stole Christmas (2000) led to their snout-to-tail look at the career of Ron Howard and stretched over more than a year. After focusing on Hollywood’s nicest guy, they pivoted with a season on one of its absolute worst. Mel Gibson provided the perfect opportunity to settle on a theme. After all, he represents the actor-turned-director at their most grandiose. Actors-turned-directors (more on them below) have provided Reel Rap with opportunities to discuss some of Hollywood’s biggest Ls as well as their own personal shortcomings. They’ve also discussed some of the great works of American independent cinema, some foreign gems, and even the rare transcendent Hollywood effort. To recap, here’s where the boys have tracked their mud-soaked galoshes: Season 1: Screwball Right Down the Middle of the Plate: The Films of Ron HowardSeason 2: God’s Angry, Racist Man: Mel Gibson the DirectorSeason 3: Cassavetes v. CassavetesSeason 4: A Chip on His Shoulder and a Song in His Heart: Jon Favreau’s HollywoodSeason 5: A Rich Diet: Sofia Coppola’s Substantive StyleSeason 6: Nichols & May & Reel & Rap Season 7: Pardon My French! It’s the Complete Works of Jacques Tati!That’s not including one-offs, holiday specials, and other miscellaneous episodes.Today, Shane rarely watches movies and Bennett only watches movies. It’s a match made in hog heaven. They’ve covered good movies (Symbiopsychotaxiplasm: Take One, A Star is Born, the works of John Cassavetes and Sofia Coppola), they’ve covered bad movies (The Grinch, The Dilemma, the works of Nick Cassavetes), but mostly they’ve covered anonymous movies. Some of the best episodes of Reel Rap episodes focus on movies that no one has thought about — let alone discussed at length — in years or decades. Subscribing to Reel Rap is an opportunity to hear the definitive conversations on films like Ransom, Charlie Wilson’s War, and The Man Without a Face. Hit the button above to hear the latest episode of Reel Rap. This time around, the boys provide a quick overview of their shared history and reflect on the show’s past, present, and future.A Poem for Reel HeadsBy ShaneGrand theft and the heat’s on, mayorsAnd Everyone showing their assTom Cruise too. Washed up before he’s in the wash tubNo weeping for Willow, and Gung Ho to thoseWho narrowly adored Howard’s ransom, over our heartsThere is no evidence of survivors, drafts of backdraft hopelessly hopefullyBurned.

A missing ransom that got lost in translation in a Chinese bookie’s car factory, here lies a far and away dream of licking a star. You were supposed to die at the bookie’s house, but you didn’t. You are amazing. Zathura’s birdcage shakes. Its your big day. And shadows of my uncle as he curled threats like husbands at our faces. Playtime, he called it. We knew he would be on holiday, and maybe for good. We’d commit to a sisterly suicide for our little christ and this pitiful alter serves less as a notebook and more as an Apollo, built with twigs and bound to guidance by brotherly voices. You are my man of iron, twice. On new leaves this elf found neverFound that nostalgic green in the heart of the sea, or in another woman. Queen Marie Would be without her beguiled chef who, wolflike, careened through a hospital lobby, looking for a new heart to break in traffic. Past interviews, beyond the satellite of blood beverages and apologies. The vampire doctor will see you now. Rescheduled for sinai. The test audience hates it, and here it is in two stoned tablets the Irish warrior finally shouted along with the country:Symbolic psychos like Mr. Sophistication rode the last taxi out into plasmatic sanguine sunsetAnd just before the credits became shadows and special thanks and all curtains,A skywriter in debt on borrowed time cashed in amidst the cosmos to sing one last time to no one in particular“That’s a Reel Rap!”What’s a Reel Head?For the Reel Head, cinema is a buffet (pronounced boo-fay) that can only give you diarrhea of the mouth. Reel heads gorge themselves at this buffet like a pig at the trough. It’s all slops, in a good way. If you miss getting pretzel nuggets before a 10:00AM matinee, you might be a Reel Head. If you’ve got Criterion discs behind lock and key, you might be a Reel Head. If your neckbeard has a neckbeard, you might be a Reel Head.Reel Head Viewing ListWhat are a Reel Head’s favorite flicks? Buddy, I’m glad you asked. Excluding the films they’ve covered on-mic, here are just a few that the boys would recommend to any would-be Reel Head: Archipelago (Joanna Hogg, 2010)Certain Women (Kelly Reichardt, 2016) Miami Vice (Michael Mann, 2006)Monterey Pop (D.A. Pennebaker, 1968)Ordet (Carl Theodore Dreyer, 1955) Safe (Todd Haynes, 1995)Sherman’s March (Ross McElwee, 1985)Sink or Swim (Su Friedrich, 1990)Toni Erdmann (Maren Ade, 2016)Maidstone (Norman Mailer, 1970)Why Actors-Turned-Directors?No character in Hollywood is more interesting than the actor who decides to direct. For some, the career change comes when roles dry up. For many others, however, it’s not a retreat but a bold, even hubristic, step in a new direction. If you’ll forgive me, I think Reel Rap’s own co-host Bennett said it best:The beret and jodhpurs confer entry into a new, higher sphere, the Pantheon of Keaton and Chaplin. The role of director validates the actor’s every pretension and, for many, provides an opportunity to affirm (or, more often, reaffirm) for the entire world just how hot and multi-talented they are.Did Bradley Cooper have to lower his voice, learn an instrument, and write his own songs to make A Star is Born? Of course he did, for the same reason he had to open a scene with a shot of his own bare ass. He’s an actor-turned-director and that’s what they do. 3 Reasons to Subscribe to Reel Rap The hosts have a genuine rapport: Bennett and Shane met in a high school gym class. Their relationship was incubated in a world of towel slinging and ass slaps. It began in earnest years later, feeding on new insecurities and giving birth to bit after bit. Listening to Reel Rap is like watching a blind-drunk Jackson Pollock at work, or like living inside the moment where Rip Torn swung a hammer at Norman Mailer for an hour or so every week. Shane and Bennett meld the high and low: Reel Rap Season 3 juxtaposed the transcendent films of John Cassavetes with the work of his beefy son Nick. John’s work practically invented American independent cinema as we know it, Nick’s is a strange blend of the maudlin and the hyper-masculine. The episodes covering both directors provide a picture of Reel Rap in microcosm, it’s a mix of high and low, a show with its nose pointed toward the trough and its eyes pointed toward the stars. Reel Rap’s hosts are a lot like Shrek. They wear crappy little vests and they’ve got layers. You’ll get into heaven: Shane promised indulgences duringReel Rap’s episode on The Da Vinci Code. That wasn’t some empty cash grab. Subscribing to Reel Rap’s Patreon at the $10/month level will earn you an indulgence and a spot behind those Pearly-ass Gates.Meet the HostsShane is an actor and writer living in Austin, Texas. He does 99.9% of Reel Rap’s behind-the-scenes work. At 12, he chopped his toe off with an axe while splitting wood barefoot at his home in Yardley, Pennsylvania. His first book of poetry Sliding into First is slated for release in January 2022. His influences include Norman Mailer, Francis Scott Key and Marianne Moore.Bennett coined the phrase “my man” and is an authority, perhaps the preeminent one, on “shitboy cinema.” He once swallowed over a pound of sunflower seed shells in one sitting. It required two surgeries over four days to remove them and, even still, he had to pass a bunch of shells the old-fashioned way for several days afterward. His favorite directors include Terence Davies, Joanna Hogg, and Tobe Hooper. How to Become a Reel Head Want to realize your lifelong dreams of becoming a reel head? You’re in luck, it’s easy!1.

In our Season 2 premiere, Chuck and Eric interview Shane LaBarge, the 2013 grand prize winner of the Life Foundation's essay contest about the impact of life insurance. Shane lost his father during his first year of college, and had to grapple with the reality of supporting both himself and his family without the financial safety net that a life insurance payout would have given them. We talk with him about the feeling of helplessness that the loss of a breadwinner can bring, his struggle to pay his own way through college and law school, and the lingering feeling of financial uncertainty that's still in the back of his family's minds almost ten years later. -- Read Shane's grand prize winning essay at LifeHappens.org: https://lifehappens.org/past-scholarship-recipients/shane-labarge/ -- Real Life is a podcast about life, death, and expecting the unexpected co-hosted by Chuck Anderson and Eric Lindholm.

WATCH THE VIDEO-VERSION OF THIS EPISODE: https://youtu.be/r6RRNyRTPLc In my second joint interview with [RS], host of [MF] on The Progressive Radio Network (PRN), we speak with Shane Burley -- journalist and author of 'Fascism Today: What It Is and How To End It.' Our discussion with Shane covers numerous topics, including the "Intellectual Dark Web" (or as Shane says "the academics that circle around Joe Rogan for some reason"); the pseudoscientific claims surrounding race, ethnicity, and IQ; and an examination of observable patterns within far right insurgency, as examined in Shane's recent piece in Commune Magazine 'A History of Violence,’ which examines the case of James Alex Fields — found guilty for the murder of Heather Heyer at the "Unite the Right" rally in Charlottesville in 2017 when Fields drove his car through a crowd of counter-protesters, killing Heyer and injuring 28. In Shane’s piece ‘A History of Violence’ and in this interview, Shane unpacks the observable patterns within far-right ideology and propaganda that has led individuals, like James Alex Fields, to commit seemingly random acts of violence, and how a combination of elements inherent in far-right ideology and propaganda cultivates a drive in alienated individuals to commit violent acts towards those perceived as an existential threat. In attracting alienated individuals and (in)directly encouraging them to act in ways that are violent and insurgent, the ideology of the far-right generates an imperative to commit acts of hate without necessitating any direct connection to any particular movement or ideology within the far-right, as has been the case with Fields. Shane describes the narratives that thrive within right-wing media spaces, including an examination of the pseudoscience of the “natural heritability” of intelligence — in relation to race and ethnicity — that continue to circulated within these spaces, as well as the media personalities that use racist, sexist, and chauvinist narratives to cultivate a base of followers, regardless of the wide range of scientific research that refute these claims on the matter. Also in this discussion, we address the government shutdown, workers rights, and the recent controversy surrounding the confrontation between Native elder Nathan Phillips and the students of Covington High at the Indigenous Peoples March last month. Shane Burley is a writer and filmmaker based in Portland, Oregon, who regularly reports on far-right movements in the US, as well as anti-fascist resistance, workers' rights, and class struggle.

In this week’s episode of Coffee with Comrades, Pearson sits down with Shane Burley, author of Fascism Today: What It Is and How to End It. Shane is a film-maker and journalist based out of Portland, OR. His work has appeared in numerous outlets including Jacobin, Alternet, TruthOut, Salon, ThinkProgress, Waging Nonviolence, and many more. Shane’s recent article from Commune magazine, A History of Violence, provides a historical context for the trial of James Alex Fields, the white nationalist who murdered Heather Heyer and injured dozens of others at Unite the Right in Charlottesville, VA back in 2017. We discuss the current state of the Alt-Right, the monsters of the past and present, the fascist creep, mainstream white supremacy vs. full-fledged white nationalism, the perverse psychological self-image of racists as both victim and conqueror simultaneously, and how we can defend ourselves and our communities from future lone wolf attacks.
