Once again Dolan sympathizes with the losing side in the conflict.

Can someone tell me if the eliott abrams part is worth a listen after the refresher chapo gave a week ago? I'd assume RWN being what it is would go more in-depth, but I thought the chapo ep was thorough enough

This is really one of the best episodes they've done in a while. All the LaRouchite stuff is extremely fascinating. It's insane to contrast how annoying they are today with what they used to be, which was a gang of nunchaku-wielding psychopaths trying to crack leftist skulls.

I wish there was a War Nerd meet or something here in Buenos Aires while Dolan is still around. I did message him (have talked on and off since his Exile days) about it but got no response. Then again, it seems he's been having health issues.

You probably can find him if cruise the hospital entrances and see a large american fidgeting about whether or not to go in.

Or maybe reverse the handle on a bathroom so it only locks from the outside, lock it, and he'll materialize inside.

I'm sure there are writers in the world who would be totally up for lunch with random fans in Buenos Aires and would have a great time doing it but I suspect our boy John is not one of them. No shade on you for trying, though.

Dolan strikes me as the kind of guy who suffers immensely from impostor's syndrome.

once you spend enough time in academia to realize everyone else is an impostor, how can you ever be sure you arent?

Is there a short version of why Matt Taibbi and Mark Ames don't get along anymore? Is it just something personal, or is it some substantive difference in outlook or something? Was it about Omidyar / First Look?

it seems pretty personal to me. the omidyar thing probably didn’t help, but like i dont think they hate eachother. i wish theyd hug it out, have a good cry, something like that

I don't know if there was some specific incident that pushed them apart, but from an outside perspective it seems unsurprising. Starting from more or less the same place in the 1990s, covering many of the same issues and using a very similar authorial voice, these two guys ended up have very divergent careers, with one achieving a lot of mainstream recognition and success while the other was semi-blacklisted from respectable journalism and relies heavily on a subscriber funded podcast. Combine that with two macho personalities and it seems like the bigger shock would be if they hadn't had some kind of falling out.
