Make America Wolves Again

Journos

For every season, there is a boogieman. Once upon a time, it might've been vampires, and your average British nobleman might've felt protected by an ornate, classy vampire-killing kit.

Ah, but times change. Boogiefolk change. Nowadays, the monster might be something more hip & modern, like wolves. Wolves! Unleashed by environmentalists! In which case, the best defense for some is to vote right. Way right. The righter the better.

The question of monsters and appropriate responses — that's what we're puzzling through in this episode. It means digging into a study with a cool name, asking why conservatives are so quick on the gag reflex, and thinking hard about journalists' own boogieman: our relevance.

Peer bravely into the darkness with this hand-crafted, finely wrought episode. It'll be a collector's piece in no time.

JOURNOS is produced by Heather "Eagle Ears" Wilson. The cocktail party is catered by audio from 7by7 and KieLoKaz.
