Summary
In Part 2, Matt and Chris return to Blindboy, now broadcasting from a solar-powered podcast and therefore morally unimpeachable. The darkness, however, remains. Having established in Part 1 that the global elite are a vampiric class of depraved blackmailers who traffic children and delight in cruelty, in Part 2, Blindboy offers us some welcome relief in the form of answering the question of what it looks like to be one of the good ones. You may be surprised to learn that it involves a missing dressing room, muddy socks, and a loyalty to small-time promoters that some might call heroic.
The episode also traces an ambitious historical arc: from street gangs in 1800s Limerick to the New York underworld, Meyer Lansky, Roy Cohn, CIA brothels and LSD interrogation programmes, and eventually to Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein. The connecting thread is a continuous tradition of sexual blackmail passed from master to apprentice that has, apparently, been quietly guiding Western (criminal) civilisation for the better part of two centuries.
Matt and Chris sift through the historical material, examine the leaps required to keep the chain intact, and consider whether a conspiracy hypothesis that explains quite so much, quite so neatly, might deserve a small dose of skepticism. As you might anticipate, the episode features discussions of many of our old friends, including strategic disclaimers, moral grandstanding, and layered preemptive defences. Finally, get ready to learn who the real villain is, when the mask is finally removed.... spoiler: it's neoliberal capitalism. A revelation that some listeners may have suspected from the very beginning.

| 0:28.1 | It's a podcast where an anthropologist and a psychologist listened to the greatest |
| 0:32.6 | finds the world has to offer and we try to understand what they're talking about. |
| 0:43.7 | And today is the first episode where DeKurd and the Gurus has become a fully solar powered podcast. I am producing huge amounts of solar energy, Chris. I'm offsetting any emissions |
| 0:51.6 | you may be making. So, you know, jointly, we are, we are making the |
| 0:57.4 | change, you know, we're being the change. Are we carbon neutral? We're more than carbon neutral. |
| 1:02.7 | We're carbon negative. Wow. Yeah. And I mean, you're not, you're not, but I'll offset, |
| 1:08.7 | I'll offset them. I'll upset your emissions. |
| 1:11.8 | Look, we are a collective unit here, Matt. |
| 1:13.9 | We combine our carbon output together. |
| 1:16.8 | So whatever you're taking away, that back goes into my, yeah, my registration of carbon |
| 1:24.2 | activities. |
| 1:25.2 | Yep. |
| 1:25.4 | That's a deal. |
| 1:26.9 | You can really smash your queries on those AI platforms with the guilt-free. |
| 1:32.3 | Good, great. |
| 1:33.3 | That's great news. |
| 1:35.3 | Because I already was doing that, but now that I get added in an extra layer of permission and lack of guilt, There will be even more guilt-free engagement. |
| 1:46.2 | So that's fantastic. |
| 1:47.9 | And this is, of course, because Matthew Brown over there has gone solar punk, right, |
| 1:53.6 | installing various gadgets and gizmos, which harness the energy of the sun, |
| 1:59.9 | feed it into his house, into like a grid and go back out into the grid and it goes around. And it's, yeah, that's the way it is now. That's right. That's right. And I forgot to say to the start, you're like the inverter to my solar panels, Chris. That's how I think... And the inverter? Yeah. |
