Hello, everyone. Molly here.

Welcome back to the fourth and final installment of the holiday reruns here on Weird Little Guys.

Instead of picking two random reruns for the weeks of Christmas and New Year's,

I've used this opportunity to run my favorite miniseries of 2025.

The eight episodes I wrote back in the spring about the international networks of right-wing extremists who were trying to hold on to apartheid in South Africa.

Last week, episodes one and two ran on Tuesday, episodes three and four on Thursday, and episodes five and six ran on Tuesday, which makes this episodes seven and eight of the series.

Blood River originally ran on April 17th, and Mission South Africa followed on May 1st.

There was kind of a 9th episode in the series, but it was an afterthought, and I didn't include it here.

But when I got back from my honeymoon, a few weeks

after these episodes came out, I chased down one more loose end, the American arms dealer who got

in trouble for smuggling guns to the groups we've been talking about in these episodes.

I just checked back in on him, and he is still suing that all-you-can-eat-sushi buffet in Portland,

for asking him and his Doberman to leave the restaurant after the dog put her nose in a chafing dish of spring rolls.

Bit of an anticlimactic retirement for a guy who used to run guns for foreign Nazi groups.

I really think I could have just written about this all year.

Just 50 episodes about the white supremacists all over the world

who couldn't let go of apartheid.

It turned out there was a lot more going on there than I could have imagined.

But this is where I left it in May.
