Alrighty... Brand New Zaid Talks about Hasan Piker's Dog Controversy, Taylor Swift's alleged Maga Propaganda-- and the backlash culture war Campaigns that our poisoning us... https://youtu.be/VnDiQKY6nL0
We got a lot of stories this week and these two are indicative of a REALLY insidious piece of propaganda and backlash campaign we HAVE to talk about. Its VERY scary where we're at-- and being able to criticize people we don't like BUT IDENTIFY-- what's real and what isn't is CRUCIAL if we want to avoid the worst possible timeline from getting worser(i know it's not a word idc)
That includes both the Hasan Piker Dog Collar Controversy, and Taylor Swifts Maga Pivot-- which are both narratives being pushed by very disingenuous people-- in the guise of very altruistic pursuits-- but that have the goal of consolidating power instead of any real meaningful progress to those goals.
This is a scary situation. Be careful with it. We'll be back sunday. https://youtu.be/VnDiQKY6nL0

Hey Guys! Apologies, NEW FSTN Sunday but we're gonna need a little bit more time on Comeback Mechanic. A lot of graphics on this one and I need to clean up the episode a bit(it's a little bloated and some of the stuff needs to be explained better or cut!)
So we'll delay it to monday or Tuesday. So sorry again. It's recorded! I just want to make sure it's strong!
We got a NEW FSTN this weekend though, about the shutdown and everything else. Thank ya'll for the patience.
FOR THE RECORD: I know we've been trying to expand but fallen short a few times. I've actually recorded like 6 different content pieces this week-- its a lot of the post production and graphics we're working on because some of them are BRAND NEW ideas. We got more people working on the channel now (which is great!) a lot of it is trying to figure out the best schedule to do 3 videos a week with.
Right now we put out 2 most of the time-- but I want to expand the kind of things we do because some of the workload of these is a LOT. Griftwatch especially is time consuming and I think part of it is a lot of the info I give CAN be kind of extra when the point is already made - although still good to know! But anyway I gotta start on FSTN rn. But we'll def drop COmeback mechanic next week.

WE UP! Brand New Freestyle The News about Eric Adams dropping out, Trumps Authoritarian Presidential Memo, Tiktok being sold and so much more https://youtu.be/FtI9mC9DPQQ
Sorry it came a day late. I had to rerecord something to replace a WHOLE 17 MINUTE SEGMENT of the show. And even still I had to cut one story. We'll hopefully have that up as a clip soon(We're starting a clips channel as well in case you want the individual story bites.)
But let me know what you think I think today show is a BOP
But lets talk about
- Eric Adams Dropping out of the NYC Mayoral Race and what that means for Mamdani V Cuomo
- Trump's Free Speech Memorandum is scary stuff(But also, not new)
- Kamala Harris Book Tour(although we have a FULL breakdown on Toosooncrew.com)
- Tiktok being Sold to the Murdoch's and Oracle. What that means.
We got a bunch of stuff dropping this week-- hopefully a new show. Man it's already october! Hope ya'll are well. It's monday so please spread this around so it doesn't get buried. Appreciate ya'll.

Welp. There are now multiple breaking news points that JUST dropped this morning. Meaning I gotta cover more stuff and probably replace the MAIN STORY I was covering for like 2/3rds of the video. So we're going to post FSTN Tomorrow at 12:30PM PST.
Rap still works tho.
Apologies. If anything it means i'll have more of the songs up for ya'll to download tomorrow as well as some more up to date info. Been REALLY trying to not delay and we've been pretty good about it these last few weeks.
Looking forward to tomorrow. I'm gonna post what I did for the breakdown today at TooSoonCrew.com
