48:05 – As a new age of American fascism dawns, Doc Sleaze explores his theory that the US elected a psychopathic fascist as president because they are a nation of psychopaths. The Doc also gives short shrift to media attempts to rationalise the chaos of the Trump administration, lectures the UK press on its inability to grasp the principles of democracy and looks into the UK right’s obsession that foreign criminals are ‘crowding out’ indigenous villains. Plus, we get a preview of where the US is heading via some news from the future and look at low budget seventies exploitation movies. Patrick Stewart is on hand to soothe outraged American listeners (yeah, I know that nobody ever listens to these shows) with his dulcet tones. Includes:

Patrick Stewart Reassures Americans ¦ Target: Trump ¦ ‘The Ultimate Warrior’ (1975) Trailer ¦ Movie in Brief – ‘The Ultimate Warrior’ (1975) ¦ News From the Future ¦ Psycho Nation ¦ More News From the Future ¦ ‘They Come Over Here, Stealing Our Crimes…’ ¦ ‘Malibu High’ (1979) Trailer ¦ Forgotten Film – ‘Malibu High’ (1979) ¦ News From the Future Again ¦ Democracy Misunderstood ¦ ‘No Means No…’ ¦ Rationalising the Irrational ¦ The Wisdom of Patrick Stewart

Join Mike in the studio late at night, where he recounts how he visited a place from his distant childhood this week — the atrium lobby of his dad’s old office building from the 80’s. Not having been there in nearly 40 years, he was prepared to receive nothing but warm, nostalgic vibes, but instead suffered the wrath of a hangry woman in scrubs.

Later, I spend some time looking for a job in the jungle scam market of LinkedIn, check out the new trailer for “One Battle After Another,” ostensibly based on the Thomas Pynchon novel, “Vineland”, and consider buying Signal stock…now that it’s the official texting app of political perverts.
