This week we’re talking about Salvadoran Pete Campbell and also [no spoilers for Nova’s theory], Nayib Bukele, who you might know from the news as being Comprador Hitler. Municipal meeting minutes include: We talk about the popcorn man finally, a less funny coup as well, EldestSon_finalFINAL.docx, I ❤️ N, my brother Grima Wormtongue, and an end to the nephew killing.
Come see Mattie on tour in Brooklyn, Chicago, or Minneapolis!
Here's the photo of him from the end of the episode, btw:

2025-04-11 21:34:10 +0000 UTCI was in Model UN in high school (late 80s), and my senior year I ended up being the ambassador for the FMLN, which at that point was a non-voting delegate in the General Assembly (in the real UN). At the statewide MUN conference, I had one of my committee delegates hover around the check-in table and nab the placards for El Salvador. We spent the rest of the weekend giving the "official" El Salvadoran delegation – from a different high school from across the state – the runaround, making them engage in procedural shenanigans to get "their" placards back. One of my friends, a Jewish kid who grew up in part on a kibbutz in Israel, was ambassador for the PLO and as a fellow insurrectionist we teamed up and were pretty strict about not breaking kayfabe in the way of irritatingly self-impressed teen leftists. He was really good at channeling Arafat Thought, though. (The other year I did it I was the ambassador for Bahrain, which was kind of annoying because it was not easy to learn about Bahrain in 1989 but turned out to be depressingly relevant to my life much later.)
