In this emergency episode, Adam and Peter talk about the political assassination of far-right political activist Charlie Kirk. They focus on Kirk’s legacy – his role in the rise of the MAGA movement, current right-wing politics, and how he mainstreamed white Christian nationalism for a new generation. (Recorded September 14, 2025)
