Happy new year from the Reel Politik podcast and all RP Corp affiliates and subsidiaries. In this bit of stream audio from a couple of days ago, RP's Jack Frayne-Reid and Top Rope Deep Dive co-hosts Farages Fucked Face and @MarkedAsRed discuss, in no particular order: the Jekyll/Hyde dynamic of Elon and Adrian Dittmann, the music of Steven Seagal, the anti-Chinese cinematic genius of Michael Cimino's Year Of The Dragon, our attempts to game the YouTube algorithm by slagging off Thom Yorke, fatal wanking accidents, and why Joker 2 is better than "The Batman". We also break the news of Jimmy Carter's death, before any other media outlet did so. FOR ANOTHER 40 MINS FROM THIS CONVO, WHERE WE GET REAL ABOUT ISRAEL, SUBSCRIBE OVER AT PATREON.COM/REELPOLITIK

This was, in my view, a price worth paying to have the chance to chop it up with my good mate Tom once again after what is probably a good couple of years, and to get his thoughts on Francis Ford Coppola's divisive epic MEGALOPOLIS, as well as the upcoming work of Clint Eastwood and the Nick Love/Danny Dyer axis. I also recount my recent discovery of an old article by centrist thought guru Dorian Lynskey where he uses the n-word. Peace + love, JFR

We all (re)watched The Thick of It, a show about the incestuous and unsaveable relationship between the British Political Class and the British Media Class, or if you're a liberal, the show where the funny shouty Scottish man does the compound word thing you like so much. To do this, and look into the mind it was birthed from, we of course got Reel Politik's very own Jack to assist us.

Longtime friend of the show Lilah (@leechwaifu on Twitter) makes her Reel Politik debut to provide live commentary on a series of English-language comedy sketches from Israel's most renowned satire show, Eretz Nehederet, designed to put a positive spin on the Israeli bombardment of Gaza for western audiences. In addition, we check out a couple of other top Israeli cultural exports: a terrifying pro-genocide anthem sung by children, and an abusive voice message some IDF guy sent to Owen Jones, before looking at the brilliant satirical mind of Lee "Jam Econo" Kern.

This episode was certified by the official Reel Politik factchecker as containing CONCRETE FACTS. As requested by one listener, Geraint and Jack run down the rogue's gallery of right-wing shitbags and Sebags among the signatories of British pro-Israel petition "the October Declaration".

ABD Dışişleri Bakanı Blinken'ın Çin gezisinin hemen sonrasında Çin lideri Xi Jinping'e diktatör yakıştırması yapan Biden bu makalenin yazıldığı saatlerde Hindistan lideri Modi'yi en üst düzeyde ağırlamaya hazırlanıyordu. Biden, Kaşıkçı meselesiyle ilgili Muhammed bin Selman'la ilgili ‘parya' gibi ağır laflar etmiş ancak zirve yapan petrol fiyatları Suudi Arabistan ziyaretini zorunlu kılmıştı. Demokrasi ve insan hakları konusunda yüksek retorik kullanan Biden'ın buna rağmen jeopolitik dengelerin gerektirdiği adımları atması birçok Amerikan başkanının pratiğiyle uyumlu aslında. Demokrasi Zirvesi'ne dahil edilen ülkeler listesi de Amerikan çıkarlarının ve stratejik tercihlerin öncelikli olduğuna başka bir örnek. Biden ‘demokrasilere karşı otokrasilerin mücadelesini' en önemli mesele olarak gördüğüne ilişkin sözlerini boşa çıkaran tutarsızlıklar, Amerika'nın bu konudaki güvenilirliğine zarar vermekle kalmayıp Çin gibi birçok ülkeyle ilişkilerini pragmatik bir çerçevede götürmesini de zorlaştırıyor.

Got you! Know you saw on your feed that Reel Politik had a new track and thought it was an episode. It's actually a comeback for a different project that falls under the wider RP Corp Intl umbrella. Graveyard Goat Family are effectively a rebrand of the previous musical project of RP host Jack Frayne-Reid, Crazy Moose, with no set lineup but more of an emphasis on collaboration with other musicians. Do you know how to rock? That musician could be you... Anyway, we will be collecting some choice tracks recorded for the unreleased (except for subscribers to patreon.com/reelpolitik) third and, for now, final Crazy Moose album, THE AGE OF ASTRAY, along with a handful of new ones, into a new album of the same name, which will function as GGF's debut LP. The painting by RP co-host Yair Rice that adorns this track will be the album cover, and this will likely be the closing song. RP listeners should be heartened that it is sort of about the cruel death of left-wing politics in Britain. GRAVEYARD GOAT FAMILY (on this recording) ARE: Jack Frayne-Reid - Guitars, vocals, organ, shakers DM (anonymous) - Bass, drums Yair Rice - Artwork

This week we are joined again by frequent collaborator and friend of the pod Jack Frayne-Reid from Reel Politik to discuss the long-awaited album by Compton rapper Kendrick Lamar, Mr. Morale and the Big Steppers. This episode covers the context for the album as well as Kendrick's discography and back catalogue, while the second half, available with the full episode on the Patreon feed, goes into the album itself and covers it from track to track. We discuss everything from Dr. Dre's influence over a lineage of West Coast Hip Hop to the similarities in the careers of Kendrick Lamar and Bob Dylan and much more.

What with the timeline being as depressing as it is, this week we decided to visit a favourite film of ours - Martin Scorsese's often overlooked The Last Waltz, welcoming back three-time returning superstar guest Jack from Reel Politik. On November 25 1976 at the Winterland Ballroom in San Fransisco a star-studded (and cocaine-fuelled) rock concert was held that would go down as one for the ages, which Scorsese documented on film - a goodbye not just to Canadian-American group The Band after 16 years on the road, but also to an entire era of rock'n'roll. We take an in-depth look at what is surely one of, if not the greatest rock documentary of all time, from the influences to the fallouts to the heartbreaks, and not to mention the absolutely electrifying music. /// CREDITS /// Hosts: Aarjan /// Connor Guest: Jack Frayne-Reid Production: Connor Music: Cardio /// The Band feat.

Isabel Allende once said 'accept the children the way we accept trees'. However, trees aren't responsible for the Iraq War, mass incarceration, or claiming that Hemingway would have bombed Syria. So this week we are joined by Jack Frayne-Reid of Reel Politik fame to discuss a most important question: how do we judge fathers Miliband, Harris, Buttigieg and Benn? /// SHOW NOTES /// /// CREDITS /// Hosts: Aarjan /// Ruairi Guest: Jack Frayne-Reid Production: Aarjan Music: Cardio /// Yusuf / Cat Stevens - Father & Son

Jack from Reel Politik helps us wander through New Hollywood, bringing together 45 years of reflections on Jaws, from Hiroshima to Žižek. We also assess Dennis Hopper's health tips, assert our lack of fear, and even look at the film's unfortunate impact on shark policy - and how politicians use movie myths to pursue ideology bolstering but pragmatically ineffective action.     Buy our merch     Second Row Socialists on Twitter     Comradio on Twitter       RP on Twitter     Bill Murray sings Jaws    The Jaws Effect: How movie narratives are used to influence policy responses to shark bites in Western Australia (2014) - Christopher Neff    Adam Nayman on Jaws and "virtuoso populism"    "History Bites Back: Confronting the Atomic Leviathan in Jaws" (2017) - Sebastian Croft    The fate of the USS Indianopolis    Guardian Article on Jaws - Mark Kermode    Jaws clip from The Perverts Guide To Ideology - Slavoj Žižek    Bob Dylan's 115th Dream    Easy Riders, Raging Bulls - full documentary    Easy Riders, Raging Bull - Deleted and extended footage    Joseph Campbell, four functions of myth    The Shark Is Still Working - full documentary

subscribe over @ patreon.com/reelpolitik to hear the full episode at the following link: https://www.patreon.com/posts/52743032 before FFF and I recorded episode 211, we recorded what was actually the main object of that night's session: a commentary track for one of our very favourite films, the 2010 comedy MacGruber (which was in part the subject of one of RP's earliest episodes.) listen along with us here, possibly while watching a copy of the film - we also have a video version of our call that we'll try and upload, although you can't see FFF at all and and the film is laggy as shit on it, and you have to upload videos to patreon through youtube which means COPYRIGHT COPS. apologies also for poor audio quality on FFF's end. with all these caveats, we hope you enjoy! - Jack

Subscribe over at patreon.com/reelpolitik to hear the full commentary and much more besides. Recorded later the same night as our commentary for Clint Eastwood's FIREFOX (which is why Tom briefly falls asleep towards the end) we present the second in what will likely be - for now - a trilogy of RP audio commentaries for "classic" (of whatever esoteric interest to us) films. In this one, Tom introduces me to the work of outsider artist Neil Breen, a distinctly Wiseauean writer/director/star/inventor of fake companies with which to credit himself pseudonymously for odd jobs on his own films. His 2013 film FATEFUL FINDINGS is a strikingly strange piece of work, spanning Lynchian horror, family (melo)drama and high-stakes political thriller in its inability to settle on a genre. In terms of instructions for watching along with us, we kind of fucked up the count-in here, but it should be easy enough to get in sync with Tom and I when you bear in mind that we're watching this precise copy of the film on YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1vLLNIAvJ9Y - although we do have a sort of built in piss break halfway through the commentary where we pause the film, so don't leave your copy playing during that bit! Writing this all out, this is more complicated than I thought. If you just want to listen, that's ok. Maybe we'll do our own sync of our audio commentary with a video file of the film. Peace! Jack

Tom and I recently got together for a lovely, if relatively brief, reunion where we hung out at mine, watched some films, listened to about 500 versions of the Civil War-era folk ballad Pretty Peggy-O, and got a lil wavy. The first film we watched, ie the one for which we were most lucid, was Clint Eastwood's 1982 techno-thriller FIREFOX, a tale of aeronautical espionage (unrelated to the titular internet browser) in which the Russian-speaking "Mitchell Gant" (Eastwood) must learn to *think* in Russian in order to fly one of the Soviet Union's state-of-the-art mind-controlled warplanes. As well as a rare venture by Cool Guy Clint into spy movie territory after the divisive and strangely homophobic The Eiger Sanction (1975), Firefox was at the time the most expensive film ever for director/producer/star Eastwood's Malpaso production company, with cutting edge-special effects accounting for more than $20,000,000 of a $21,000,000 budget. If you go on your torrent site of choice, the 1080p copy of Firefox will probably the same one we're watching here, the audio of which we have synced up to the recording of our commentary, so you can do the same with your copy of Firefox. I also own the film on blu-ray, but it's the wrong region for my Russian blu-ray player, so this was my first viewing. До встречи comrades! - Jack

In an assembly of British Left podcasts, we're joined by Phoebe from 10k Posts and Masters of Our Domain, and Wariotifo from Reel Politik to discuss the pernicious presence of Trotskyists (both current, and former) within UK politics. We look at the rise and fall of Living Marxism, the journal of the Revolutionary Communist Party, and the dispersal of its various contributors as professional contrarians or into the agribusiness sector. And holding a neocon mirror to them with the authors of the Euston Manifesto; two self-appointed arbiters of the 'real left' whose entire purpose is (and was) to oppose the left at every turn. /// SHOW NOTES /// /// CREDITS /// Hosts: Aarjan /// Nikita Guests: Phoebe Roy /// Wariotifo Production: Sarah Sahim Music: Cardio /// Sarah Sahim

PATREON EPISODE - https://www.patreon.com/posts/235-fuck-it-we-w-51343674 On this very special crossover episode, we're hanging out with our good pals from across the pond - Jack and Geraint from the great Reel Politik podcast - to share a few cheap laughs over a target that's just asking for it. Yes, we discuss "Renegades: Born in the USA," the new Spotify-exclusive podcast from Barack Obama and the boss himself, Bruce Springsteen. We discuss how the show represents much that is unfortunate about Obama's post-presidency, and how exactly it fits into Bruce Springsteen's long and glorious career as a celebrity avatar of the working class. (Don't worry, we're not going to be too hard on Bruce.) Check out Reel Politik - https://soundcloud.com/reelpolitikpodcast

PATREON EPISODE - https://www.patreon.com/posts/49309128 In 2006, Neil Young reunited with Crosby, Stills, and Nash to embark on a tour that he hoped would raise consciousness against the Iraq War, swing the midterms for the Democrats, and establish a link between the protest music of the '60s and the George W. Bush era. Jack Frayne-Reid (cohost of the Reel Politik podcast) fills in for Luke to discuss Neil Young's documentary CSNY/DEJA VU (2008), and the mild pleasures and serious limitations of Young's Iraq War-themed music. PLUS: the strange story of former Labour MP Mike Gapes.

We are joined by Twitch streamer and YouTuber Sinan Kose and Jack Frayne-Reid of Reel Politik and GapeCast to talk about Adam Curtis' new BBC docuseries, Can't Get You Out of My Head: An Emotional History of the Modern World.

drawing inspiration from unproblematic fave Phil Spector, we present A CHRISTMAS GIFT TO YOU FROM REEL POLITIK - your one-stop shop for all your festive discourse needs, in which Christmas and the wider festive season are never alluded to even once. instead - more Trump bullshit! whether political art is "more relevant than ever"! Jack reviews Tenet, as well as JK Rowling's melt detective TV show! creepy Kevin Spacey and his sexy sojourn to a Blair-era Labour Party conference with Epstein and Bill Clinton! finally, a suite of three songs from the Crazy Moose archives - Gillian Welch's Wrecking Ball and JFR's Spiritual Baldness and Salting the Earth - to round out this very special episode, which is definitely very special and substantively different to our normal ones, for certain. CONTENT NOTE: does not actually contain any mention of Tim Farron. sorry.

And now, the third and final instalment of our prestige documentary miniseries on Ilford's notorious GAPEFEST music festival, commissioned by the Ilford South FM radio station and written and presented by Jimothy Baker, the greatest - and only - journalist in all of Ilford. This follows the festival to its ghastly denouement, with Mike Gapes failing to rope Bill Clinton and Tony Blair into his nefarious scheme, and instead having to rely on his old friend Tim Farron (portrayed by Reel Politik co-founder Tom Foster in a return to his award-winning, star-making turn from Tim Peaks: Farron Walk With Me.) A five-hour set by Jimmy Buffet, and then Gapes' own blood-stained headline performance ensue. It was truly a festival nobody will ever forget, and nobody will be able to forget this documentary even if they haven't heard it. Especially if they've seen the 1970 film 'Gimme Shelter'. Starring Jack as Mike Gapes, Jimmy Buffett, John Harris and various goons With FFF as Jimothy Baker, Richard Miller, Jeffrey Epstein and various goons SPECIAL GUEST STAR: Tom Foster as Tim Farron

In this exclusive peak behind the scenes of Reel Politik's single most ambitious episode of 2019 - https://soundcloud.com/reelpolitikpodcast/episode-126-gape-goons-ft-mike-gapes-mr-jimothy-baker - we now bring you the call that took place the night before the interview between RP Ilford correspondent Rupert Pickering and RP General Secretary Jack Frayne-Reid. This is very much "how the sausage is made", and - interspersed with apposite clips from the interview itself - should hopefully provide some insight into the creative process behind an industrial-level trolling operation.

we were joined by podcasting legend & top comrade Jack (from Reel Politik @reelpolitikpodcast)to discuss our favourite films of 2019. we each did a top five, should have done a top ten but we still had plenty to discuss. topics include THE IRISHMAN, I DO NOT CARE IF WE GO DOWN IN HISTORY AS BARBARIANS, HER SMELL, BLUE STORY, HIGH LIFE, PARASITE, CORPUS CHRISTI, THE MULE, THUNDER ROAD and many more. the soundtrack features phil graves covering some of the worst and best music of 2019 - 'in the microwave', 'bmbmbm', 'jogging' and 'thats just the way that i feel' by purple mountains (feat. crazy moose) twitter.com/FilmGraze letterboxd.com/Film_Graze/ co-produced by emmett cruddas and sam storey

An unsung hero of RP Thought is Dr Daniel Howdon, the esteemed health economist who so famously clashed with the hated Richard Angell over whether hospital car parking should be free for patients and their families during the last election. We couldn't even begin to detail Dan's invaluable contributions to the New Lexicon of the Left and Twitter-as-artform, but we certainly could get him on the line to un-melt the polls, breaking down the hard data on what's really happening in the election and shattering the icy tentacles of False News into a thousand pieces. Our conversation sees us delve into care, car parks and Corporation (British Broadcasting). This episode also unveils heavyweight endorsements of the Labour Party by three influential figures: beloved Reel Politik founding co-host Tom Foster, beloved YouTuber Lilly (@cubmoth), and beloved rock band Crazy Moose.

We finally did it. After succeeding in driving him out of the Labour Party, we managed to trick Mike Gapes into appearing on our podcast for an exclusive interview. With our man Rupert on the ground in Ilford South to talk to the Gapeman and his campaign manager Jack (not to be confused with our Jack, who has never even claimed to be Gapes' election agent), Jack (@gapesology) and Geraint (@waluigitifo) are joined in RP Studios St Petersburg by Ilford investigative reporter extraordinaire Mr Jimothy Baker to discuss the alleged disappearance of Gapes' alleged former campaign manage Richard Miller, and the alleged web of intrigue surrounding it, particularly the mysterious gang of allegedly violent street thugs "The Gape Goons". In his interview with the show, Gapes is quizzed on the big issues, including the Reel Politik podcast, the MIWK, Russia, Mr Seumas Milne, Mr Richard Miller and why the Lib Dems are a big pile of shit. In our final major revelation, we premiere an exclusive "Miwk Tape" leaked to the podcast by a source close to Team Gapes.

Geraint, Yair and a hoarse-voiced Jack are back for another rowdy election special, in which we drop some of our trademark Reel Politik salt onto the hated Liberal Democrats, who are pioneering bold new fronts in non-linear warfare in their astonishingly, disgracefully deceitful campaign. We talk all the lies: the bullshit graphs, the "tactical voting" sites, the backtracking on past pledges of denuclearisation in order to score cheap points at Corbyn for not wanting to murder everybody. Our focus is not limited to the mere Lib Dems, however: we also talk about, and even to, Mike Gapes.

At long last, after two years of agonising political deadlock, a General Election was announced yesterday. Geraint (@wariotifo) and Yair (@rice_ys) join Jack (@gapesology) to salt every slug in the book and finally get excited again about the prospect of Mr Jeremy Corbyn and Mr Seumas Milne in Number 10 Downing Street. This emergency RP election broadcast was rushed to completion in under twelve hours, and should hopefully be the start of a big election cycle for your favourite scurrilous left podcast, and also for Reel Politik.

Recorded back-to-back with Episode 112 - Milk Over Matter, Messrs Rice & Frayne-Reid present the latest entry in the Reel Politik reading series; a full reading, with commentary, of Robert Webb's seminal 2013 column for the New Statesman, "Dear Russell, choosing to vote is the most British kind of revolution there is", a response to fellow comedian Russell Brand's political revolution, set out in the previous edition of the New Statesman, of which Brand served as guest editor. The piece - which is obviously complete nonsense from start to finish - is most notable as the progenitor of the iconic phrase "read some fucking Orwell"; ultimately, perhaps, Webb's greatest contribution to comedy. Webb's piece can be read here: https://www.newstatesman.com/2013/10/russell-brand-robert-webb-choosing-vote-most-british-kind-revolution-there

Recorded on Jack's birthday (20th July), he and Tom provide a running commentary on both 13-min episodes of the BBC's weird front for the UK foreign policy establishment, 'Tonight with Vladimir Putin', a mock talk show hosted by an animatronic caricature of the Russian leader and Reel Politik paymaster. As you'd expect of assets of the Russian state, the verdict is disdainful. The boys also look at the viral satire of the 2000s that provided a precedent for this contemporaneous work - Chris Morris' Bushwhacked, JibJab.com's 'Good To Be In DC' and 'Bomb Saddam' videos, Jolyon Rubenstein's more recent 'The Real Housewives of ISIS' sketch, and the "rathergood.com" website set up by 'Tonight...' co-creator Joel Veitch. Sadly, we don't - as promised - get back to talking about Lou Reed.

In our second and final release from Jack's visit to Southampton Transformed, Reel Politik present an unedited recording of the panel he spoke on, New Left Culture, which asked "How can we change the ways we live and think to raise our consciousness and experience true collective joy?" The panel was chaired by Marika Rose (@MarikaRose on Twitter) and Rose Holyoak (@RoseHolyoak) of Southampton's Radical Reading Group (@radical_reading) and also featured writer and New Socialist culture co-editor Rhian Jones (@RhianEJones), 'Authentocrats' author and former Reel Politik guest Joe Kennedy (@joekennedy81) and Alex Niven, author of books such as 'Folk Opposition', the forthcoming 'New Model Island', and - apparently - a book on Oasis' seminal debut Definitely Maybe. To paraphrase the great Tim Heidecker, when you got panels like Rhian Jones, Joe Kennedy and Alex Niven in 'em, you can't lose! PS. If you make it to the Q&A you can hear Jack's VICIOUS TAKEDOWN of some besuited Blairite nerd in the audience.

Live from Southampton Transformed, Reel Politik presents THE GREAT REALITY COLLAPSE: ABSURDITIES IN BRITISH POLITICS 2015-19, an audience-inclusive pub quiz that looks back on some of the key issues our podcast has dealt with over its 100-episode history, including full rounds on PigGate, Owen Smith, Tim Farron and the Artists Formerly Known as CUK-TIG. Unfortunately, only the questions were recorded live, so the final half hour of the episode is just Jack sitting in his study going through the answers (with added clips so it's less boring). The episode opens with the first ever live screening of 'IT'S IN YOUR HANDS', our latest Reel Politik Original Short Film directed by Mr Tom Foster - who also designed the artwork - and closes with the song Patterns, written by Jack Frayne-Reid and performed by Crazy Moose. Thanks to the organisers of Southampton Transformed for having us, and the audience for participating so gamely!

Recorded live at Birkbeck University on March 16th 2019, @Suite-212's founding co-host Juliet Jacques presents a panel in which Jack of Reel Politik, Riley of Trashfuture and James Shield, producer of the New Economics Foundation's Weekly Economics Podcast (standing in for his host Ayeisha Thomas-Smith) discuss the radical political potential of podcasting, or lack thereof, its place in a media landscape with a reactionary homogeneity, and the nuances of copyright law.
