About this episode

Mike and Jared discuss the media frenzy surrounding the death of Jason Arday and the implications of anti-woke media.

Listen to premium episodes on Patreon: patreon.com/postingthroughit -- Cambridge Professor Jason Arday was a Black scholar with a history of exaggerating events from his past and a plagiarizing in his work. He recently died amid the fallout of a media frenzy ignited by self-described "race realist" Nathan Cofnas. Mike and Jared discuss Arday's tragic story by examining the anti-woke media personalities like Jesse Singal, who legitimized a racist's outrage campaign against Arday in the name of reporting on the excesses of "wokeness." But first, your hosts review Candace Owens' "great debate" with a TPUSA-adjacent misogynist over whether Tyler Robinson actually killed Charlie Kirk. Spoiler: If the debate was an indication, TPUSA is in a heap of trouble.
