Hello Danger Corps!
The news was so goddamn depressing that Nick abandoned his search for a story and started watching stand-up instead. Excellent decision. Today’s Dangerous News Break is eight glorious minutes of comedians taking swings at Trump worship, Christian nationalism, climate denial, billionaire AI fever, Gen Z and the spectacular contradictions of American politics. Drew Dunn asks what Jesus would sound like if he talked like Trump. Geoffrey Asmus finds perhaps the only argument capable of making MAGA suddenly care about climate change. From there, things get increasingly weird. Grab a drink. We earned this one.
Political comedy isn’t an escape from what’s happening. Done right, it’s another weapon against it. Authoritarians thrive on fear, exhaustion and the belief that we’re all alone. Laughter punctures that bullshit and gives us enough joy to keep fighting.
The #1 way to support The Dangerous Ones is to become a paid subscriber. Your support helps us make more independent pro-democracy comedy, reach people outside the political bubble, experiment with new shows, and continue building a Danger Corps where people can find truth, laughter and community without losing their damn minds.
If this show gives you a little fuel for the fight, we’d love to have you with us.
Keep laughing, keep resisting, and keep making good trouble. 💙
Warmly,
Jim, Tiffany & Nick
