In this episode, we cover the January 6th insurrection, its wild cast of characters, and the movie that perhaps predicted it all: White House Down. We focus on what makes an insurrection and how a lot of the dummies who staged this one got themselves caught.
We also talked a bit about the demographics of your typical Capitol rioter based on this article from The Atlantic: https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2021/02/the-capitol-rioters-arent-like-other-extremists/617895/
