Cancel Me, DaddyAuthor: Katelyn Burns, Christine Grimaldi, Flytrap Media
The pearl clutching about cancel culture and censorship has become louder and more absurd while also getting more and more play in the media. Journalists Katelyn Burns and Christine Grimaldi see this panic for what it is though: a grift. They take a closer look at these temper tantrums, dispelling myths, laughing at the most outrageous takes, and shedding light on which perspectives are actually being suppressed and left out of the conversation.You can join our community and support our work on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/cancelmedaddyA Flytrap Media Production Language: en Genres: News, News Commentary, Society & Culture Contact email: Get it Feed URL: Get it iTunes ID: Get it Trailer: |

How ICE Turns Protest Into a Battlefield (ft. Jamelle Bouie)
Episode 95
Tuesday, 27 January, 2026
You can’t log onto social media or otherwise tune into the news without witnessing extremely disturbing images of masked federal agents assaulting and arresting people in Minneapolis. We’re talking bystanders, legal observers, passerbys, immigrants, citizens—everyone in ICE’s wake.This week, Katelyn and Christine welcome New York Times opinion columnist Jamelle Bouie to the pod. Jamelle’s work centers on history and racial politics. From the George Floyd uprisings to today’s violent campaign against undocumented immigrants and anyone who happens to get caught up in an assault or arrest, he brings moral clarity into focus. Katelyn, Christine, and Jamelle discuss how 19th century slave patrols became modern-day policing and the military-industrial complex led to the militarization of modern-day police—with the intent of suppressing free speech. It’s time to cancel—and abolish—ICE.Stream on our YouTube channel—remember to ring the bell! Listen via Apple or Spotify.
