Jesse, we have a very special guest today, someone who has come up.

Wait, should we just record the intro right now?

No, yeah, we're going to do it together.

Well, no, no, but I'm saying, like, should we just say, hey, like, hey, Katie, hey, Jesse.

All right.

If you want to say hey, you can say hey.

Hey, Katie. Don't laugh yet. You, you can say hey. Hey, Katie.

Don't laugh yet.

You haven't been introduced yet. You haven't been. Stop. That's nobody. You guys didn't hear anything. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. With Jesse, we have a very special guest today. Wait, what? Someone who has come up on this show a lot, really. this is our new Robin DiAngelo. He's mentioned every week. I'm actually not

sure when the last time was that we did an episode where his name didn't come up. So welcome to

Blockton reported, Richard Spencer. No, no, that's next week. I thought you guys were going to laugh

about that. It's Richard Hanania. I thought it was pretty good.

Hey, Katie. Yeah, I am... Too soon, Katie. I, yeah, I've noticed, I mean, I do come up a lot. I love that one of the recent episodes, you had a... I mean, this goes very deep. You had a dream of where you were white knighting on my behalf? A nightmare, actually, a nightmare. Oh, I thought it was a... Okay, maybe I got a different kind of impression from it.

I thought you were playing, okay, maybe I got a different

kind of impression from it. I thought you were playing the role of the hero protecting me from

these intolerant college students. The students, yes. I would. If it came down to it, I would. The

nightmare aspect of it was just recording this podcast in a classroom. Yeah. Well, it was very,

I mean, it was very, I was honored to hear that. I'm like, wow, these, you know, Katie believes in me. That's something. It's definitely something. Well, Richard, welcome to Block and reported. You were obviously familiar to many of our listeners. You're a writer and a commentator, both on Substack and elsewhere. You're also very prolific and genuinely influential on Twitter. Apparently, the Trump administration took cues from your work when crafting their executive orders on DEI, and yet you are no fan of the Trump administration now. Anyone who follows you on Twitter will be familiar with your statements about them. You were also famously outed as a former internet racist in the Huffington Post a few years ago, and we're going to talk about all of that. But we're not going to do it in this episode. That's going to be just for Primos. That episode will come out later this week for them. What we're here to talk about today is another internet weirdo Chuck Johnson. Yeah, you've been spamming us for months trying to get onto the show to talk about this story.

Who is this guy? Harassing us. You've been literally harassed us for months. Who is this guy?

Yeah. So this story, it's very complicated. So I know why, you know, it took you a little while

to get the kind of beauty of what this is and what this story is and why it fits so perfectly

with what you guys do.
