Escapist Delights in a Crumbling Democracy w/ Dash MacIntyre

Hello Folks!It was really nice to have Dash from The Halfway Cafe as our guest this week. He’s responsible for some of the best satire on Substack. The thing that’s kind of remarkable about his satire is that it’s consistently funny and easy to recognize as satire. Neither of these things is easy to achieve within our dystopian reality.I’ll often read fake news that I mistake as true and it makes me angry. Dash’s work always makes me smile. I’ll take it. I’m in need of more smiles. You can follow him here:Also, he gave us a suggestion for a great, free streaming site that actually has good movies. I think I have to check it out.https://www.kanopy.com/enWe discussed Jurassic Park, K-Pop Demon Hunters, and more. I hope you enjoy this nice break from all the more serious news!Thank you Nick P, Sal Gallaher Author, Merila Cintron, Preston J Cole, The Neo Towncryer, and many others for tuning into my live video with The Halfway Cafe and Ben Ulansey!You all make this newsletter happen!
