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:
