We are so lucky to have had Andor (especially S2) as a way to face the very real challenges we face in the world today and remind us that we have to stand up, fight, and call bullshit on the corruption happening in plain sight. Full episode: open.spotify.com/episode/1cpA...

This is a HUGE scandal. Elon Musk, JD Vance, and Trump are lying about Social Security fraud. Internal documents show DOGE found "no significant fraud"—but did slow retirement claim processing by 25%. Nothing efficient about making it harder for people to get their benefits.

Absolutely this. Pundits act like there’s some perfect poll-tested combination of policies that will unlock these voters, but it’s much simpler: Are you for real? Will you fight for them?

could someone check with John Roberts whether accepting a $400 million plane for your personal use is a core executive power that congress may not constitutionally regulate or merely an action for which the president is presumptively immune from any accountability?

Look, @goldman.blue & I covered the insane detail of the journey of Karn’s blaster over 2 seasons of Andor on @escapehatchpod.bsky.social. But leave it to @jowrotethis.bsky.social to dig deeper and remember that when Andor was asked whose it was he said, ‘I didn’t get a name.’ 🤯🤯🤯 House of R goated!

The most unexpected thing about doing Escape Hatch is the voicemails segment. Doing VMs is not novel (neither is a GenX movie dad pod.) But folks have made the VMS a canvas for increasingly elaborate and hilarious bits. Truly the best surprise that in the course of 250 eps this creative space arose.

The magic of Andor is that we already know where the story's going (Rogue One). That means simultaneously savoring every moment we get with these beloved characters, and DREADING what is gonna happen to them. 😬 Andor S2 Eps 4-6 @escapehatchpod.bsky.social review: open.spotify.com/episode/21Zw...

A mob of Hasidic men in Brooklyn chase down a woman who came to protest Ben-Gvir. This sort of reaction has become normalized in NYC and LA, where violence against protestors has spiked enormously since October 7th. This largely isn't covered or addressed by media, despite how widespread it is.
