Chapo Trap House - 1017 – Mogging in Agharta feat. Will Sommer (3/9/26)

Will Sommer returns to the show to talk more about the Iran War, this time through the lens of a rapidly fragmenting Republican elite. We discuss the war between the Israel skeptics like Tucker Carlson and the hawks like Mark Levine, and how this ties into a hijacked shipment of nicotine pouches and the transvestigation of Laura Loomer. We also talk about Candace Owens’ docuseries on Erika Kirk, another leaked racist groupchat, and the emerging multiracial coalition of White Supremacy.

They're calling it "age verification" and touting it as a measure to protect children. But, as is the case with most moral panics, the children are a pretext. New laws are being implemented around the globe to require citizens to provide identification to use the internet, meaning anonymity is dying and the risk of being targeted for one's formerly-anonymous beliefs or "likes" are growing. This is a largely bipartisan effort that has the potential to lead to a Minority Report-style crackdown on "pre-crime" based on online expressions of belief. Tech journalist Taylor Lorenz is ringing the alarm bell. Will the public resist before it's too late?

NPR's Book of the Day - In new memoir, Gavin Newsom reflects on his political rise

As California’s governor – and a topic of discussion among some as a possible 2028 presidential candidate – Gavin Newsom is an exceedingly public figure with a busy schedule to match. His new memoir, Young Man in a Hurry, provides a glimpse into Newsom’s rise to political prominence and his ongoing goal of self-discovery. In today’s episode, Newsom sits down with NPR’s Ailsa Chang to discuss his book, the question of his own relatability, and why he uses “playground insults”’ on social media to push back against the Trump administration.
