Humor as a weapon against absurdity in politics and culture. When the world seems upside-down, sometimes the only way to stay sane is to laugh at the madness. Dan Happel sits down with Jericho Green — activist, critic, and unapologetic truth-teller from California — for a raw conversation on the absurdities of modern life. From political hypocrisy and cultural decay to the Marxist drift of academia, this episode pulls no punches.
We connect the dots between humor and resistance — how irony cuts through propaganda, why calling out the ridiculous can shift perspectives, and what happens when a society loses its sense of irony altogether.
