Today, in our first video podcast, we force you to stare at Trent and Steve's ugly mugs for 2 hours. Paddy is on the podcast, but we're saving his visage for Patreon, when we eventually start one. Honestly we couldn't think of a better way to drive ratings down even further.

Today we're trying to talk about what the world is looking like since the inauguration Donald Trump, and what it may look like going forward. Hopefully you enjoy.

As always, questions, comments and concerns can be sent to complicatedpod@gmail.com

Today we start by talking about corporate malfeasance, and Trent accuses Paddy and Steve of constantly moving the goalposts with regards to what they think is permissible corporate behavior. This somehow transitions into a discussion of the events of the 2008 mortgage led economic meltdown.

It's a shorter episode this week, which is probably a good thing, since we didn't have a topic and we don't do a better job of staying on the topics we do discuss than we have previously.

Trent has recently returned from adventures south of the Equator and unfortunately he is compelled to return to paying attention to what's going on, if only for the purposes of these conversations. We hope you enjoy. As always please submit questions, comments and concerns to complicatedpod@gmail.com

This week we are trying to bring a conclusion to our discussion on the events leading up to the Spanish Civil War and how they relate to the modern context. You'll have to judge for yourself, how successful we were.

It's just Paddy and Steve today. Unfortunately Trent was unable to join us.

Today we're talking about what happens when 2 outlets that I follow and support financially end up at odds with each other.

Specifically, Daryl Cooper, who hosts the MartyrMade podcast, which I have recommended on this show, appeared on Tucker Carlson's X show. During that 2 hour plus appearance, he made some statements about some events in World War II that are contrary to the accepted history of those events.

This did not go unnoticed by another outlet that I subscribe to, The Free Press.

Paddy helps me figure out whether I've been in the thrall of a Nazi Charlatan or not, though we didn't come to a conclusion about what I should do about it. Then we talked about some recent German election results and what they might mean for the wider world going forward.

Today, for...reasons, we're talking about the Spanish Civil War. The boys promised me that we'd get to the modern contextual reasons for this, but time constraints and our pathological need for digression have insured that there will be a part 2. Be warned.

In this, our second episode of the weekend, we talk about the recent attempted assassination of Donald Trump and it's wider repercussions. We ponder about whether the truth of the shooter's motivations will even matter as the story unfolds and evolves. Will the truth even be a part of what will eventually become the mainstream narrative of the event.
