  • Episode 95: It's Disclosure Day, Again
    May 16 2026
    That’s right everybody, Disclosure Day came and went and not much really happened. The reactions to the grifter ufologist hype cycle have been entirely predictable and hilarious. Subscribe on Patreon to support making this show, get premium only episodes, and listen to our entire back catalog. patreon.com/wetwired We’re talking too much about the substance of the UAP/UFO files released by the government. Mostly because how much can you say about a bunch of infrared videos of a bright dot moving around or FBI files that have been publicly available in essentially the same form for, in some cases, 60 or 80 years already? I think the proper way to understand what’s been happening over the past week is that it wouldn’t be a letdown if the hype men and women hadn’t been out there building anticipation. And whatever you do, don’t think for a second that any of this is anything more than a distraction from Trump failing completely to win a war with Iran that he started.

It turns out that credit belongs to this account on Twitter: https://x.com/mrjeffknox/status/2053972920549232732 Music: Airglow - Spliff and Wesson (CC-BY) Fly your crypto-leftist flag with our personal love letter to Juan José Arévalo, philosopher and socialist president of Guatemala, and the airline he nationalized. wetwired.printful.me/

  • Premium Episode 71: He Came from the Internet / I Always Wanted to Be a Groyper, Part 5 (Sample)
    May 9 2026
    We're talking about the Right's still rising reactionary star, Nicholas Joseph Fuentes. Fuentes’ videos posted on Rumble are regularly watched by 100s of thousands of people, but aside from a brief brush with Donald Trump as a dinner guest of Kanye West, he's been almost completely dismissed by mainstream conservatives. That is, until the last year or so. This is a sample of a premium episode. Sign up to listen to the entire episode. patreon.com/wetwired Since last summer, he’s appeared on multiple interview shows including Candace Owens, Dinesh D’Souza, Patrick Bet-David, and Piers Morgan but by far the most consequential person to host him last fall was Tucker Carlson. Despite their eventual falling out, Fuentes’ conversation with Carlson on The Tucker Carlson Show not only exposed Fuentes to Carlson’s extremely large audience (it was watched over 7 million times on YouTube and 18.5 million times on Twitter, if you can believe anything Elon Musk says), but it was also the chummiest, possibly aside from his October chat with Alex Jones. Fuentes is the most effective personality and movement leader who’s consistently out MAGAed Trump. He’s also the most successful among all those who've tried at separating the America First agenda from Trump and the cult of personality that surrounds him and has the potential to continue America Firsting after Trump is gone. That should terrify the Republican establishment since succession has always been that nut that the people at the center of MAGA have never cracked. This recent normalizing of Fuentes, who’s been known to liberally use the n-word, has praised the Taliban, is verbosely homophobic, proudly calls himself an anti-Semite and complains about the “organized Jewry”, and doesn’t think women should be allowed to vote or even go to school, has said he wants to drag the Republican Party “kicking and screaming into the future, into the right wing, into a truly reactionary party,” shows that the gap between mainstream and the fringy far-far-right is as thin as it's ever been.

  • Premium Episode 70: Party in Pristine Park, USA (Sample)
    Apr 17 2026
    Welcome to Pristine Park, Ohio where the beer is light, the fireworks are silent, and everyone parties like it's the 4th of July, Polish style. This is a sample of a premium episode. Sign up to listen to the entire episode. patreon.com/wetwired I ambush Jules with a surprise recording session where I treat him to the story of the 4th of July LARPers. Based in Poland, for the last few years they've put on a 3 day live role playing session based around their takes on staples of American society. Set in the fictional Pristine Park trailer park, the 4th of July LARP isn't only a send up of the trailer park culture, it manages to be an incisive review of American society and the terrible turns of events that befall just about all of us.
