GLoP Culture

Warning: The Surgeon General has determined that the podcast associated with this post contains jokes and observations that may offend some listeners who are supportive of the current President of The United States. In this episode, the hosts of this show (that’s Jonah Goldberg, Rob Long, and John Podhoretz) pretend they are White House Press Secretaries and are tasked to spin some recent news... Source

This week on GLoP, we’re in the midst of a low level cultural revolution in which movies, tv shows, books, statues, and more are all looking at possible cancellation. So the Tom Cotton/NYT and the Bon Appétit contretemps are kicked around, then we get to Gone With The Wind. Also, were the late 60’s worse than what we are going through now? Some thoughts about mothers and daughters... Source

OK, fair warning: we’re in week 10 or so of this lockdown thing, and the men of GLoP are getting a bit punchy. Add to that some technical issues and being a punching bag in certain quarters, and well, you get a very shall we say, eccentric show. How so? Well, as you’ll hear, we abandon the first take and start the show all over again about ten minutes in. And in the interests of transparency (and... Source

This week on the mighty GLoP Podcast, we’re properly social distancing by recording from Florida, Long Island, Manhattan (and Southern California if we’re being technical about it). We cover the au currant issue of the masks as the latest weapon in the Culture War ( inspired by Jonah’s great G-File on this topic), what exactly a Quibi is and why you should care about it...

This past Sunday evening we ventured back into the Land of Zoom: our second GLoP Culture podcast captured on video. This is the audio of that event (the video is here on Ricochet and behind the paywalls at The Dispatch and Commentary). This has everything you could possibly want – drinking, smoking, checkpoint running and Nazi monkeys – and that’s just from Jonah! Meanwhile... Source

Hello die hard GLoP listeners (see what we did there?). Our previous live Zoom GLoP was such a smashing success that by popular (or unpopular) demand, we’re doing it again. Please join us this Sunday, April 26th at 6PM ET/5PM CT/3PM PT for another visual romp through pop culture, politics, liquor, and tobacco products. We may have a special guest or two, some cameo appearances, and maybe even take... Source

Live (well, live on MP3). from their primary domiciles, it’s the mighty GLoP podcast! This week, a trip back to days of show biz past as the GLoP-heads revisit (warning: you may want to sit down before you read the next few sentences) the long lost Jerry Lewis Show, which ran for 5 episodes in 1984. Also, who was Joe Franklin and why was he on TV? We answer that question for you. Also... Source

This past Saturday evening marked a seminal moment in the often sordid history of the mighty GLoP podcast: our first virtual Night Owl captured on video, recorded live in front of an audience of thousands, enforced upon us by the covenants of social distancing. This is the audio of the event ( the video is here on Ricochet and behind the paywalls at The Dispatch and Commentary). As foretold by the... Source

Here on the mighty GLoP Podcast, we were social distancing long before social distancing was cool. Usually by at least a few hundred miles. As you would expect, this one is a riff on a single topic: interpretative dance and its effect on western civilization. Nah, you know what the GLoP-heads are going to freestyle on this week. So, wash your hands, settle in and hopefully have some laughs on us. Source

This week on the mighty GLoP podcast the guys take everything with an abundance of caution and taped our show without a studio audience (which is what we do 97% of the time anyway) and riff on the current state of the COVID-19 situation, the way Trump and his Administration is handling it and what it all means down the road. All that and a special rendition of one of our favorites, Baby Got Back. Source
