This week on Uncolonized, it’s a solo episode with me, Gavin Stephens. In Part 1, I dive into WWE’s big move to Netflix, focusing on the reception of Hulk Hogan. I explore how Jean Baudrillard’s theory of hyperreality applies to Hogan and why he embodies America’s myth-making machine. I also share my evolving perspective on politics—shifting from the traditional left vs. right divide to a more direct Workers vs. Owners framework.

In Part 2 (available exclusively on Patreon), I continue the discussion, tackling the TikTok ban and why America has always been a plutocracy.

Tune in for deep analysis, cultural critique, and unfiltered takes.

In Episode 8 of Season 16, Gavin Stephens and Daniel Grant discuss the shocking assassination of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson by Luigi Mangione, a man many are calling a class hero. The duo unpacks the growing divide between those who see Luigi’s actions as a response to wealth inequality and liberals attempting to distract from systemic issues by labelling him simply as a murderer.

From the role of corporate greed to the moral and political fallout, Gavin and Daniel break down what this event says about the state of capitalism, class struggle, and the narratives surrounding them.
