Podcasts about Satire

This episode of High Society Radio is an absolute masterpiece of internet audio lore.We look back at Chris Stanley's unhinged musical legacy, dissecting how his classic mashup of Brett Kavanaugh Senate hearings remix "Automatic Still Is" (set to Avicii's Levels) becoming an underground internet sensation. The guys trace the audio's path from its original YouTube upload to viral SoundCloud edits, Spotify distribution, and the unexpected core demographics keeping the track alive today.Plus, Faga drops his unified "Peter Thiel Gay Theory," the guys analyze the corporate PR mechanics behind the Vatican, and we look at the dark future of content generation as AI bots officially destroy online media organic reach. To close it out, Stanley lays out his ultimate vision for transforming GaS Digital into the American WeChat—the all-in-one app for absolute comedy chaos.Drop a comment: Does Stanley's Kavanaugh EDM remix belong in the internet hall of fame?

Elon Musk und SpaceX haben den größten Börsengang der Geschichte hingelegt, und Elon Musk ist jetzt offiziell der erste Billionär der Welt. Eine Billion sind tausend Milliarden. Eine Milliarde sind tausend Millionen. Und was bedeutet das? WDR 2 Satiriker Florian Schroeder erklärt es. Von Florian Schroeder.

"Irgendwann reden wir auch nochmal über GIRLS”, das sagen wir gefühlt seit hundert Folgen, und hey, jetzt ist es endlich soweit. Die Serie, die von 2012 bis 2017 auf HBO lief und von Lena Dunham ins Leben gerufen wurde, hat uns in unseren Zwanzigern besonders geprägt. Vier junge Frauen im Zentrum, deren Probleme — trotz des Settings in der New Yorker Mittelschicht — relatable waren wie wenig vorher. Seltsame Begegnungen mit Männern, ein dynamisches Auf und Ab in Freundinnenschaften und die scheinbar auswegslose Suche nach dem richtigen Karriereweg. So hatte man das tatsächlich noch nie gesehen. Die breite Masse nahm die Serie unterschiedlich auf, und gerade Schöpferin und Hauptdarstellerin Lena Dunham wurde zur Projektionsfläche: It Girl, Millennial-Ikone, „Stimme einer Generation”. Ganz schön viel auf den Schultern einer Mittezwanzigjährigen. Und dann war da noch die Kritik: Die Show ist zu weiß und selbstzentriert, genauso wie Dunhams Feminismus. Im April 2026 hat Lena Dunham ihr Memoir Famesick veröffentlicht und schildert darin, wie sie diese Zeit erlebt hat, wie ihr Körper zum Schlachtfeld wurde, wie eine chronische Erkrankung und umstrittene Aussagen sie immer mehr in die Isolation trieben. Seit letztem Jahr entdecken TikTok und Gen Z Girls gerade neu und feiern es. Wir schauen drauf: Wie ordnen wir die Serie heute ein? Und ist Lena Dunham ein missverstandenes Genie der Satire oder total überbewertet? Jetzt reinhören, überall wo es Podcasts gibt.

Tech-Milliardär Peter Thiel sammelt keine Briefmarken, sondern Wohnorte. Aktuell hat es ihm Argentinien besonders angetan. WDR 2 Satirikerin Barbara Ruscher über Macht, Geld und besondere Visionen. Von Barbara Ruscher.

When Nussaibah Younis decided to write a book about ISIS brides, everyone expected it to be an academic tome. Instead, she wrote a raunchy satire about a woman who takes a job in a warzone to get over a recent heartbreak. Nussaibah's debut novel, Fundamentally, sees protagonist Nadia in over her head working for the UN in Baghdad. But her sense of purpose renews when she connects deeply with Sara, a young ISIS bride who Nadia becomes intent on saving. Drawing on her own professional experience, Nussaibah tells Mattea Roach why the UN's work culture is ripe for satire, why the conversation about ISIS brides needs nuance and what it really takes to deradicalize someone.

Host Meg Wolitzer presents two unconventional love stories, one classic, one contemporary, that avoid the usual tropes of “meet cute,” “opposites attract,” or “happily ever after” but are still engaging.  In “Love in the Slump,” by Evelyn Waugh, clueless upper-crust newlyweds are sent on a comic odyssey.  The reader is Jane Kaczmarek.  And Esther Yi's “Moon” explores something we often mistake for love—obsession--as a young woman is drawn farther and farther into K-Pop fandom. The story was selected by guest editor Min Jin Lee for Best American Short Stories 2023.  It's read by Hettienne Park.  And we hear Lee's and Park's thoughts about the story. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.

Writer, actress, and bestselling author Jill Kargman joins Donny for a hilarious and razor-sharp conversation about her new film Influenced — a satirical comedy skewering the world of momfluencers, social media obsession, and performative wealth. Now in select theaters and streaming digitally July 10th, Influenced grew out of Jill's viral Instagram character Danielle, a kvetch-queen Upper East Side mom who took off during COVID and amassed half a million followers overnight. Jill and Donny dive deep into what it's really like growing up on the Upper East Side — from Spence School classmates who were embarrassed by their stretch limos to today's culture of private jet posting and Baby Dior. They unpack the toxic side of influencer culture, momfluencers, and the dark psychology behind aspirational social media content. They also get candid about parenting in the age of AI and social media, Jewish identity after October 7th, the collapse of the two-party system, and why neither of them can sit through a three-hour movie anymore. Plus: why Jill would rather fly JetBlue with 300 strangers than ride on someone's private jet. If you love sharp satire, New York City culture, entertainment industry stories, and honest conversations about raising kids in a screen-obsessed world — this episode is for you.

Horror history gets weird, reflective, and dangerously snackable this week as This Week in Horror History travels through June 8–14 with mischievous monsters, haunted hotels, supernatural comedy, demonic hauntings, creepy mirrors, and one killer dessert that may be eating America alive.This episode digs into a packed week of classic horror movies, cult horror sequels, supernatural blockbusters, 1980s horror, haunted-house horror, and strange consumer-satire body horror, including the release of Gremlins, the same-day arrival of Ghostbusters, the wider theatrical expansion of The Shining, the hit sequel The Conjuring 2, and the mirror-filled nightmare of Poltergeist III.Inside this episode:• Gremlins turns one cute little mogwai into small-town monster chaos and helps push Hollywood toward the PG-13 rating.• Ghostbusters brings haunted libraries, demonic possession, rooftop apocalypse, and paranormal exterminators into one of the biggest supernatural comedy franchises ever.• The Shining expands wider in U.S. theaters, pulling more audiences into Stanley Kubrick's cold, hypnotic nightmare inside the Overlook Hotel.• The Conjuring 2 sends Ed and Lorraine Warren to the Enfield haunting and introduces one of modern horror's most memorable demonic figures.• The Deep-Cut Spotlight goes to Poltergeist III, the strange 1988 sequel that traps Carol Anne inside a haunted Chicago high-rise full of mirrors, elevators, cold hallways, and unfinished supernatural business.Plus: a horror birthday roll featuring Johnny Depp, Natalie Portman, Jurgen Prochnow, and Adrienne Barbeau, a creepy look at how horror sneaks into family homes, hotels, corporate towers, grocery aisles, and blockbuster comedy, and a weekly recommendation for Larry Cohen's weird, gross, and sharply satirical cult classic The Stuff.From mogwai mayhem and ghost exterminators to haunted reflections, demonic forces, the Overlook Hotel, and a mysterious dessert that might be consuming its customers from the inside out, this week proves horror can invade almost anything: your home, your hotel room, your movie theater, your refrigerator, and your appetite.
