Jack and Yair engage in some now quite outdated talk about the latest exploits of Fucking French Cunt Macron, then talk about how hip-hop is still the most anti-establishment genre of music, before Yair guides the listeners through some of the highlights of the China state affiliated media he has been exploring in considerable depth For another hour of new material go to patreon.com/reelpolitik, subscribe, and hear the rest of this conversation!
the boys join Sinan for an hour and half of political shittalking
Jack & Yair return from a lengthy sojourn to go equally at length on film, touching on auteurist false advertising, early 2010s liberal imperialist crowdpleasers such as torture advertorial Zero Dark Thirty, the comparatively inoffensive Argo, and their earlier antecedent, Steven Spielberg's Munich, all the grouching about liberal melts you'd expect as a consequence, plus Shakespeare adaptations, the new documentary about reviled criminal Sir Jimmy Starmer, and the Albuquerque meth scene extended universe. Go to patreon.com/reelpolitik to hear another brand new film episode, this one focusing on king of family-friendly Christian entertainment MARKY MARK and his Boston ideology.
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
Happy 4/20 to all RPheads! As a special treat for all our loyal listeners in Gape Nation - no doubt inveterate tokers to a man - we present a special omnibus edition of our two-part investigation into the stoner movie subgenre from last year. Original episode one description: This episode is about stoner movies. Lowest common denominator stuff. Movies that are just about weed. Movies where weed solves everything. What more do we need to say? How High. Half Baked. Harold & Kumar Escape From Guantanamo Bay, the single most searing satire of Bush-era America. They're all here. Tune in, toke up, drop out. Part one of two. Original episode two description: part 2 of the great Jack/Yair stoner movie extravaganza. after a brief sidetrack on netflix's particular brand of woke capitalism (for the avoidance of doubt, it's the "capitalism" part we're against rather than the "woke" part) this time we go through some of the more debatably stoner-oriented films on the genre's wikipedia page, look back at two shows that perfected the stoner comedy form through the medium of television rather than film, and spend an inordinate amount of time discussing late period Kevin Smith. Subscribe over at patreon.com/reelpolitik to hear more exclusive, fully fleshed out episodes like this, and much more besides.
Jack draws on extensive Beach Boys research to regale Yair with tales of their famously awful frontman and artistic parasite, Mike Love, and why we must all suffer for Mike Love's art. NOTE - We have opted for the Americanised "asshole", as is the common parlance when discussing Mike Love, as a quick Google search of "Mike Love asshole" will bear out, once you've sifted through all the pornography. Similar results to "Mike Gapes" really. Subscribe to the RP Patreon today at patreon.com/reelpolitik to hear the second part, along with an extra half hour of material from the sessions for our 238th episode.
Our friend Jordan Hartley of the Comradio podcast (@JordanHartley89) interviews Darren Procter, National Secretary of the RMT, about the recent layoffs of P&O workers and resultant industrial action. Solidarity with the workers!
Once again, leftists are being asked "will you condemn?" about things we either needn't or have already condemned. Jack, Yair and Geraint reiterate that we are under no obligation to prove our leftist credentials by becoming neocons, then revisit a very funny Twitter brouhaha concerning the Mouth of Sauron, and Keir Starmer's extensive history with tax-dodging law firm (capital F Firm, if you Grisham Heads get me!!) Mishcon de Reya. Subscribe to patreon.com/reelpolitik today to hear another entirely new episode, this one about what a prick Mike Love from the Beach Boys is. As ever, we are taking on the real issues head on.
Recorded immediately prior to Patreon exclusive KRPFM's Sounds of the Seventies Vol. 1, the boys (in this case Jack, Yair and Geraint) get together for the first time in 2022 to just talk some shit about our political foes, from grifting viral "satirists" to nuke-loving Open Labour uwu bellends, to the despicable Sir Tony Blair himself. We also get sidetracked talking about paedophiles for like half an hour, which Jack does his best to stop, but comprehensively fails. Produced by Yair. For more stuff like this, kindly subscribe over @ patreon.com/reelpolitik and give us the will to go on!
smears against the leader of the opposition - bad now, apparently.
