Against the Grain
@againstthepod
How the right is remaking America. A podcast hosted by @matthewschmitz and @juliadyost.
Ari Aster and Lena Dunham, both 39, are two of the most celebrated millennial directors. But based on their latest productions—“Eddington” and “Too Much”—only one is keeping up with the times. New episode of @againstthepod with @juliadyost patreon.com/posts/134594500
Worth listening to
@juliadyost and I discuss Manohla’s meltdown (and talk about Eddington, which is great) on the latest episode of @againstthepod patreon.com/posts/134594500
My new favorite podcast. Highly recommended!
“Girls” was a critical and popular success. So why has Lena Dunham’s new series bombed? @juliadyost and I discuss: patreon.com/posts/ari-aste…

Follow Against the Grain @againstthepod, my new podcast with @matthewschmitz. Come for the best-anywhere analysis of the contemporary American right; stay for the deadpan affect.
Fair criticism. We will strive to make @againstthepod as affectless as possible.
Brilliant podcast. Not deadpan enough though. Please try to speak with less inflection
Trump’s second term has been defined by the battle between two Californians: Elon Musk has championed anti-statism and openness, while Peter Navarro has insisted on limits and the need for regulation. My podcast with @juliadyost: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/aga…
Our first full episode @againstthepod spotlights Peter Navarro, the man behind Donald Trump’s tariff policy. The research took us to some strange places, including the FAQ page of the Bay Area’s More University (“Are you a cult? … Why do you paint your houses purple?”).
In two years, the phrase “vibe shift” has gone from coinage to cliché. Political meaning is now “coded.” With so much changing so fast, everything means something—but what? and since when? Our debut episode @againstthepod (links in reply).
