The Last Thing: The Political Podcast We Wish Didn't Have to Exist.Let's get this out of the way: we know the last thing anyone needs is another political podcast, especially one featuring two white guys dissecting the news. We agree. We were happy to be quiet. We were happy to believe the guardrails would hold.They haven't."The Last Thing" is born of necessity, not ambition. We are two compelled voices, driven by the realization that our country and culture are on a frighteningly fast track to extreme authoritarianism. Every week, we take on the crucial, unsettling talking points—the moves, the rhetoric, and the institutional decay—that signal an escalating national crisis.We don't deal in partisan squabbles or media spin; we focus on the macro-threats to democracy, civil liberties, and the foundational values of the American republic. Our episodes are dedicated to waking people up to the reality of how quickly a free society can be destroyed by incremental, calculated steps.

Profiles in Cowardice: Jake Tapper
Josh and Ryan skewer Jake Tapper, dissecting his shift from "truth-teller" to rating-hungry contrarian. They break down how Tapper’s tactical flip-flopping against the Biden administration traded journalistic integrity for profit, arguing his brand of "both-sides" opportunism directly fueled the Democratic Party's decline. It’s a sharp look at what happens when a legacy anchor chooses the algorithm over the facts.Patreonhttps://www.patreon.com/c/TheLastThingPodcastSpotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/0AR2CeCTpg4XSeM9onMIj4?si=6dd3cb73a30d43e9Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/thelastthingpodcast/TikTokhttps://www.tiktok.com/@tltpodcast

Profiles in Cowardice: Debbie Wasserman Schultz
Our Profiles in Cowardice series is a scorched-earth deep dive into the internal rot of the Democratic establishment, produced by Progressives who are tired of watching their own side facilitate the rise of the MAGA movement through spinelessness and corporate compromise. We aren't here for "blue no matter who" platitudes; we are performing the necessary surgery to save the Left by systematically picking off the "cancerous" bad actors—one by one—who have traded working-class interests for donor-class comfort. By dissecting the specific failures and betrayals of individual politicians, we aim to cleanse the foundation of the party and build a stronger, more authentic movement that actually stands its ground.
