Beating A Dead Horse
Tuesday, 14 April, 2026
Grifty Pod Bonus Episode "Beating a Dead Horse" We're back because the group chat got out of control. This week we break down the Eric Swalwell allegations, Azi's firsthand experience as a whistleblower in the Eric Bauman scandal, and the bigger issue of power, patriarchy, and why "believe women" suddenly comes with exceptions. We also get into cult of personality politics and what happens when the left gets its own Joe Rogan with Hassan Piker. Messy, honest, and very online but with a real point. Stop worshipping individuals and start holding systems accountable. Listen, then log off and go do something useful.
