Has any podcast done an episode about Olof Palme?

i heard of it either from a podcast or an article about random people who were commited to investigating it

the important thing is that it's done by swedes or people who care too, one because of the funny accent and t w o because if it's done by some americans theyll decide its TOTALLY GLADIO

it's definitely an interesting story, pinning it on some guy and a grand jury saying nah, then saying ok it's this fella who killed himself right after. get the blowback lads on it

honestly wouldn't be surprised if it was pettersson by accident or engstrom because he was an rear end in a top hat in the right place at the right time. it just doesn't seem premeditated.

I hope it was PKK. Not sure Sweden learned a lesson from it though as it sold out the Kurds yet again.

He’s just like jfk in the sense that his actual anti colonial commitment gets very played up. He was against South African apartheid but happy to sell arms to kill black and brown people.

I have. It's pretty much just a recitation of facts (or "facts" idk) without a ton of editorializing. Just "on this date Stalin tried this group of insiders on prima facie ridiculous charges and had them all shot." "This year Stalin and the secret police sent this many thousand people to the gulags" etc.

rough. I'm not saying his approach is the best or worst or whatever I was just trying to report on what the episode was like. I'm way too uninformed to know whether his numbers are correct but he was basically just reading numbers and then for the big players like the other Politburo members dates on when they got taken.

Hello friends :) Your pals at the pod here! Hope ya'll are having a hella cool day. We are too! We scheduled this post from PRISON! Joke, joke. WE're not in prison. We're at home! And we're saying that soon, we'll be in YOUR homes! Right next to you! We're going on tour!!!! That's all I'm going to do in the voice I imagine people talk to each other with on Slack. I have never worked in an office so my ideas of how people in offices talk are mostly gleaned from things I come across (not on purpose) on the internet.

you might be wondering. WHERE DO I BUY? And we're telling you: Right here! At 10 AM on WEDNESDAY JULY 13th we are giving our subscribers a PRESALE CODE on PATREON. The tickets will go to general sale a few days later. So you get to have a crack at them first. It's not a discount code it's just a presale code. So don't act too happy about it.

I have been assured that the tickets are going out at10 AM no matter where you are. I genuinely don't understand how that works. I guess 10 AM in New York is 7 AM in San Francisco. But it's fair to say that if you're in San Francisco then you probably won't need to buy a ticket for New York. Unless you really are going to buy a PLANE ticket for New York so that you can come to our show. But if you're in a situation like that I really gotta tell you: You're on your own. I can't--won't--help you. I have too much stuff to do in the interregnum. Better to catch a flight from Boston to SF and then decide at the last minute you want to take a trip to Manhattan. The last guys who did that got really famous. You'll just gently caress it up though I think. SO just be sure to be in your town or use a VPN to pretend you're in your town in order to buy tickets. DOn't use the VPN for nothing else though. Imagine telling your fantastic lover that the reaosn you are so late in texting back is not because you are busy watching the sun dance it's way across the line of roaches you have lined up underneath the magnifying window, not because you're high off the fumes from the burning carpet underneath them, but because you'r eon a Mac Book Pro with VPN Enabled and their sexual texts are being transmitted via Switzerland. Imagine that.



What is the show itself? It is NOT a live podcast. WE are not recording it and you cannot record it. It is a performance. And I will perform a beating of your rear end if you ask us to do a live podcast. Just playing. It's all love. I love saying that. It's all love is a great phrase. I'm going to say it when I'm shoveling dirt onto your coffin! Just playing again, all love again.



What is the year of the smile? Well a year is generally about most of a year if not all of it. A smile's the thing you do when you see your one true love. What happens when the twain meet? Magic! The magic of showbiz! We're a SHOW BUSINESS. And we're going to show you our business: The business of having fun and goofing around. Just kidding again, all love once AGAIN. We're going to bring you down deep to the pit. We're going to love you in the oubliette. Do you hear that gentle crackle? It's tinfoil---you're on fire---you're sliding up and down the tinfoil in the shape of a smile! Just kidding.. I made all that poo poo up. The show is about Smiling.



It's All Love,

The latest American Prestige was so bad. Matthew Specter is a terrible interview; half the words that came out of his mouth were the names of historians he's read. It's like Danny and Derek took the "Historians always say things are more complicated and started earlier" joke they've repeated and conjured it into being.
