你好,来自上海。感谢您终于传输到中华人民共和国。这真是悦耳之音。您是京城人士吗?你能来参加明年的除夕晚会吗?我们需要你在央视的脱口秀!比想象龙乐队好太多了。只是不要提太多台湾。

I forgot what the date was and thought this was a clandestine turn for the podcast.

Max

I'm here visiting my in-laws in Taiwan. I don't speak a word of Mandarin, and no one but my wife speaks English, so I've spent most of my time here sitting quietly, listening to podcasts. I was so excited to see another episode released by my favorite podcasters, and like a Kafkaesque nightmare it's also in Mandarin.

**TrueAnon:调查播客、偏执狂和政治探究** ## 引言 在日益拥挤的左翼政治播客世界中,*TrueAnon* 开辟了一个独特的领域。该播客诞生于杰弗里·爱泼斯坦(Jeffrey Epstein)丑闻的余波之中,融合了调查新闻、激进左翼政治和阴谋论美学,以分析全球权力结构、金融犯罪和政府腐败。由 Liz Franczak 和 Brace Belden 主持,该节目吸引了一批忠实听众,他们被其戏谑的语气、深入的报道以及探讨主流媒体往往回避的话题的勇气所吸引。在本文中,我们将探讨 *TrueAnon* 的主题、政治取向、主要系列节目及其在播客生态系统中的作用。 ## 起源与主持人 *TrueAnon* 于 2019 年首播,正值杰弗里·爱泼斯坦被捕并随后在曼哈顿监狱中死亡之后。该播客的名称是对“QAnon”(一个极右翼阴谋论)的戏仿,定位为一个左翼对应物,致力于调查真实的阴谋,而非沉溺于毫无根据的猜测。 该节目由 Liz Franczak 和 Brace Belden 共同主持。Franczak 是一位作家和记者,擅长经济与政治分析;Belden 则是一名前朋克音乐人和左翼活动家,以曾在叙利亚库尔德 YPG 武装战斗的经历闻名。他们的搭档组合——Franczak 的敏锐分析能力与 Belden 的幽默讲述风格——赋予 *TrueAnon* 独特的气质,既具娱乐性又极具信息量。 ## 主要主题 ### **阴谋与统治阶级** *TrueAnon* 的核心主题之一是精英权力结构、金融犯罪和情报机构之间的交叉点。节目经常研究像 Jeffrey Epstein、Ghislaine Maxwell 及其关联网络的人物,认为主流媒体的报道往往未能深入探讨这些人的全球权力联系。 ### **反建制与左翼政治** 尽管 *TrueAnon* 与一些阴谋论媒体有一定的主题重叠,但其分析基于左翼视角。主持人倡导社会主义和反帝国主义,持续批判资本主义机构、企业腐败和国家暴力。他们的观点与马克思主义批判全球金融体系的立场一致,并经常揭示 CIA 等情报机构如何维持全球精英的权力。 ### **金融犯罪与腐败** 该播客的内容频繁涉及金融犯罪,从洗钱到逃税,揭示超级富豪如何通过系统性的欺诈行为逃避法律制裁。他们探讨了 Elon Musk、Peter Thiel 以及华尔街高管等人物,并揭露了他们积累财富并保护自身利益的机制。 ### **美国政治的黑暗面** *TrueAnon* 特别关注揭露美国政治的阴暗面,涉及情报机构行动、秘密政府项目和政治丑闻。他们曾探讨过 COINTELPRO、MKUltra 及伊朗门事件等话题,并将这些历史事件置于更广泛的美国帝国主义批判框架之中。 ## 重要系列与调查 *TrueAnon* 的一大优势在于其深度调查系列。这些多集专题调查使其能够对复杂话题进行详细分析。以下是该播客推出的一些最具代表性的系列节目。 ### **杰弗里·爱泼斯坦系列** 节目最初围绕 Jeffrey Epstein 展开,并成为其最具代表性的特征之一。Franczak 和 Belden 详细研究了 Epstein 与情报机构的关系、其在全球金融犯罪中的作用,以及他的性交易网络可能是更大敲诈勒索计划的一部分的可能性。他们还分析了主流媒体如何(或未能如何)处理 Epstein 案件。 ### **吉斯莱恩·麦克斯韦尔(Ghislaine Maxwell)审判报道** *TrueAnon* 详细报道了 Ghislaine Maxwell 的审判,分析了法庭程序及其定罪的更广泛影响。主持人批评媒体仅关注 Maxwell 的个人罪行,而未深入挖掘可能参与 Epstein 罪行的精英网络。 ### **硅谷与科技精英** 关于硅谷的节目揭示了 Peter Thiel 和 Elon Musk 等人物如何深度嵌入金融和政治权力结构。该节目批判科技亿万富翁如何充当现代强盗资本家,利用自身影响力改变政策并逃避责任。 ### **乌克兰、叙利亚与美国帝国主义** 鉴于 Belden 的国际活动家背景,*TrueAnon* 制作了一些关于美国在海外冲突中角色的精彩节目。他们探讨了雇佣兵的作用、战争的私有化,以及国家权力与企业利益在全球冲突中的交汇。 ### **新冠疫情与政府应对** 在新冠疫情爆发期间,*TrueAnon* 分析了政府、企业和制药公司如何利用这场危机。主持人批评了美国政府的无能应对,特别是医疗体系的金融化,以及救济措施如何让富人受益而忽视普通民众。 ## TrueAnon 在播客生态系统中的地位 在左翼播客版图中,*TrueAnon* 因其融合调查新闻、历史分析和黑色幽默的风格而独树一帜。相比于其他左翼播客如 *Chapo Trap House*、*The Dig* 和 *Citations Needed*,*TrueAnon* 占据了一个结合深度调查与阴谋论美学的独特空间。 ### **与其他左翼播客的比较** 不同于 *Chapo Trap House* 更倾向于政治讽刺与文化批判,*TrueAnon* 更专注于调查报道,并经常参考法律文件、金融记录和一手资料。而 *The Dig* 侧重于政治经济学的学术讨论,*TrueAnon* 的风格更加易懂且富有叙述性。相较于 *Citations Needed* 对媒体叙事的精准拆解,*TrueAnon* 则深入探讨阴谋和精英腐败的世界。 ### **吸引力与批评** 该节目的吸引力在于其戏谑但富有洞察力的语气。Franczak 和 Belden 擅长将复杂问题讲解得生动有趣,结合严肃分析与幽默叙事。然而,该播客也因其“阴谋论式”框架受到批评,一些人认为其对某些理论的探讨可能会偏离事实。但尽管如此,该节目仍然广受尊重,吸引了寻求激进调查新闻的听众。 ## 结论 *TrueAnon* 已确立自己在左翼媒体圈中的重要地位。通过揭露精英犯罪、分析全球金融体系、批判美国帝国主义,该节目为主流媒体叙事提供了一种关键的对立视角。凭借其深度研究、历史分析和黑色幽默,*TrueAnon* 继续为那些希望了解现代世界权力与腐败的听众提供重要信息。

Mersham

What if it was the rice president. I'm listening to this entire episode in Chinese, i don't care!

th

whatever software you're using to do this, I'd suggest specifying that you want a bit of a Beijing accent on the talking. the way they're hitting some of the sh sounds is almost Taiwanese -- Chairman Xi might not appreciate that.

Great ep to learn Chinese to! Glory to the Chinese century!

I’m not going to say what kind of podcast it was

Drew

This is so special

Sampz

No the episode’s fine i just.. didn’t think it would be Chinese is all..

Chapo Bath House

I'm something of an expert (I accidentally took Mandarin for Seniors at my local community center. It was taught by a hairdresser/ballroom dance coach from Taiwan. I still remember how to say "Canadians love dogs") and you all sound great!

ben spons

The white Chinese flag will rise again

snapplepeachtea

did you know that one of the only non-chinese members of the ccp was a polish guy named "israel epstein"

Tea for the Tillerman

What’s everyone’s favorite Chinese airline livery? Air China has a classic look but I like the China Southern tail and I like that they briefly flew A380s. China Eastern sucks, I’d probably just connect through incheon or Tokyo rather than fly Eastern’s boring ass white plane to Pudong.

Alex

It’s incredible that Chonqing is pronounced “Chong Ching” not “Chong King.” Seems racist but that’s just how it’s pronounced!

_orange_lazarus

But also I have to work a shit job today and I thought I had downloaded a good USA podcast and now all I have to listen to is this. Muy malllll. Happy April everyone

Kody

Me being like not falling for this again and skipped half way to make sure it was an actual episode unlike the aoc April fools episode and well it wasn’t silent but I definitely got fooled by these 3 fools once again

Clicked the notification for this episode on my phone and Patreon crashed. Chrome crashed when I tried to open the email about the episode. Between that and only seeing Chinese characters I was a little spooked till I realized the day

Eric

stephen harper

Skipped to the end to hear the Chinese “buhbye”

stephen harper

Update: it was indistinguishable from the english “buhbye”. I am devastated.

Nick Guida

Speak a little Chinese for them Brace.

Max

Brace is white Chinese though, so he's just contributing his part to realising the Chinese century.

Alexander

I gotta lock TF in

Max

How can you say that with this PFP?

BizPlague

I wanna know how you say "astounding" and "I'ma be real with you" in Mandarin.

glieb

kind of an east meets west style ep

Max

Kinda disrespectful dropping this on the 1st April like it ain't serious. You guys didn't even come up with a Chinese name for the podcast.

casey

can someone tell me what they’re saying,

vermouth

Executive producer Nick mullen

Ducky

Stupid American. Don’t know Chinese.

BizPlague

Great to hear from Kaifeng Brace.

was waiting for a translated theme song 🙄

Boggs

The vibe remains

Mango Bolsonaro

We think too small, like the frog at the bottom of the well. He thinks the sky is only as big as the top of the well. If he surfaced, he would have an entirely different view.

WTF? Why would you post your fawning retrospective of the works of Julius Evola here?

Don Aldin

Dog shit episode and not funny at all

Stop the Spread

CRAP… I just started learning Chinese like 3 months, and I’m weeks behind!

Don Aldin

This is Elon levels of humor

Liz speaks english like she's the last of a long lost tribe that once spoke it as a tonal language, so I'm sure she'd be great at mandarin

You would need a version of pinyin but for english to accurately transcribe Liz's speech

Natalie L

Do you guys think listening to this is helping me learn Chinese

Ant koz

Can’t wait to listen to every episode and learn Chinese purely from trueanon!

Marina

I actually fell asleep last night wondering what they'd do this year, and honestly this is kinda perfect. I'm doing some spring cleaning (by some I mean an unreasonable amount), and having the sound of the podcast for 2 hours while not being distracted by the content is somehow hacking my ADHD into being able to concentrate. Genuinely a great episode to me for that reason. I'm just wondering how it was done.... did they just blind read a translation of a transcript of an episode, and try to keep the feeling the same? I think most ppl would find that way easier to achieve with AI voices, since there's already so much material to train on, but I can't tell. To really do it properly seems like such a high effort shitpost, like a crazy amount of effort...

Marina

The pointing and laughing made me expect this to be a NOFX Cantado en Espanol style joke and I wasn't disappointed (except in myself for checking)

gfc

EVERY. DAMN. YEAR.

Sean

i was so excited to see a second episode this week but ghat dayummm

Natalie L

Fellow White Chinese it’s time to step up our Duolingo game

The_Architecht

What is this "bit" even supposed to be saying? PURE autism.

Ian H

I assume this is an old ep run through an AI translator, does anyone know which one?

Natalie L

I believe it’s the semi recent one where they talk about Emilia Perez at the beginning

Major Pisano

You’re not fooling me this year. Not again! I’m just turning it on as laud as I can and going to the store and leaving it on for my neighbors. Setting a timer and I’ll be back after 2:08:32

Julie Szanto

This was cool, but next year, translate it to Klingon

Major Pisano

Does Adam Friedland do his translated into Hebrew for his Israeli language followers?

Ian H

Someone really wants 内个 in Brace's voice

Ry Faraola

They get me every year

Major Pisano

She sounds like that hella hard Chinese lady behind the counter at a Pang Kee Bargain Market in sf. Just saying.

jacob

What did they make this with?

Peanut Horse

Really wanted to hear the intro in chinese too, our Chinese brothers and sisters are missing a vital part of the American Truanon experience

Henry

I knew it was a joke and yet I listened to way more than I should have.

buttface

I don't usually make it through the full episode but this one was excellent

Swimaroo

Must be a personal record.

TK

kinda cooked to use AI... whackos

eduard karpoev

I thought Liberal Hitler would boycott China due to the Uyghur genocide. I feel duped, maybe Brace isn't Liberal Hitler

Chairman Corn

You know Shen Yun was fairly convincing but this really brought me back to reality. Thanks guys.

Kat Weitzel

Chinese Yung Chomsky’s voice is so commanding. I would love to see him take over Regular Yung Chomsky’s role in the English episodes as well

K H

I was pissed because they started speaking Chinese right as I got in the shower, but Chinese Liz is forceful af🫠 Dragon was risen and liberated. Fully re educated. Bless you Xi.

K H

His only follower is his Chinese girlfriend, so he just goes straight to Chinese.

A Yee

i love this show so much

Liz@26:01 😳

bobore

TrueAnon 中文播客应该邀请 Nick Mullen 做嘉宾。

CE

Skipped around and at one point AI Chinese Liz sounds like she’s from Sichuan (perfect, spiritually she is Sichuanese) but later Taiwanese (wrong on every level). Brace sounds like a freaky white boy who studied Chinese in the NE. Yung Chomsky just sounds like a drunk guy from Shenyang.

Dylan

Unironically think you all SHOULD do this if you want to get paid

misterinterrupt

We travel north, south, east and west to try to figure out why Donald Trump wants to take Greenland, Canada and the Panama Canal. What are choke points? What happened to the Zonians? Are there frozen Nazis out there? Are Chinese ships dreaming of the deep Arctic? Discover more episodes at Más podcast.trueanon.com

misterinterrupt

there's a point where she says Eeeeeeeeeeee that pretty much nails it

Sarah Hunt

sent this to my friend from China and she has this to day: "from that 20 second clip I already want to die." but she could understand so i guess that counts for something

Jennifer Hammerhead

I assume this is just Liz doing various antisemitics while sweet baby Brace and hunky old Chomps beg her to stop.

Michigan Ave Phil

This is a Chinese restaurant with liberal pours of baijiu.

stalinfan11

我明白。我明白。我明白。- Liz

Ghordo

Somehow they get me every year because I’m always halfway paying attention to the introduction.

Lulu

Unsubscribed - as a greencard holder it is illegal for me to listen to a podcast from Chyyyyna.

Neil Muck

I listened to the the entire pod, didn't understand a word. Jokes on you 😎

Andrew Rock

Ugh, I was shocked when I saw this appear in my feed. What luck! An oddly early trueanon episode. I was excited to have an unexpected episode to gently guide me off to sleep later in the day…it has now come to that later and just before I was about to press play - I remembered what day it was. Congrats, got me again.

Alexander Adamczyk

BTW SuperChinese is my fav app so far, is a stickler for pronounciation, and has a secondary hanzi mode that works well with a stylus

Shane

Foiled again!

Travis

jacob

And really? I want to talk to this chinese girl

wailing ken jennings

While I deeply respect your commitment to youthful beauty tips, I cannot imagine the ones in this episode were meant for "Western" faces. I'm really supposed to immerse myself in that much seaweed? C'mon. Where can I find that stuff anywhere near Seacaucus or the Cape? I need a prorated refund.

Michael Xin

The AI deep fake in this episode is the nail in the coffin. GenAI is a scam and we are witnessing a colossal bubble that will destroy the global economy.

Lou’s plumbing

I am a confused old man you guys can’t do this to me. I’m still not certain if I pressed a button or if this was on purpose.

Sam D

There's gotta be at least one TrueAnon fan who speaks Chinese as a first language and was like "damn, this rules"

Degrassi Knoll

Listened to a solid 90 minutes of this while sleeping maybe I learned some Chinese through Ozzfestmosis

Anderson Orsburn

Reminds me of the episode with AOC. I bet The Atlantic withdraws its sponsorship now.

GenAI is a silly and fun toy. Agentic AI is coming fast though, and that is going to seriously fuck shit up.

Zhou Biden

Call them Woodrow Wilson the way they want to open the Chinese market

Took me until today to listen and didn’t get the joke until 6 hours later

Episode 4: *Sailor Moon & Brace Belden’s Basement Ambush*** **Title**: *"Real Time with Moon Prism Justice"* --- ### **Plot Summary**: When **Bill Maher’s** podcast (*"Club Random but Somehow More Annoying"*) starts spreading *anti-magic propaganda*, claiming superheroes are "the real threat to free speech," Sailor Moon teams up with **Brace Belden** (leftist podcasting legend and *Troubletown* host) to infiltrate Maher’s basement studio and **deliver cosmic karma**. --- ### **Key Scenes**: #### **1. The Infiltration** - **Disguised as guests**, Sailor Moon (wearing glasses and a "I ♥ Rational Skepticism" shirt) and Brace (with a fake mustache) sit across from Maher in his dim, cigar-smoke-filled basement. - **Maher** (smirking): *"So, Sailor… *Moon*, was it? You really think ‘love and justice’ can solve climate change?"* - **Sailor Moon** (deadpan): *"Better than complaining about ‘woke glaciers’ for three hours."* #### **2. The Ambush** - **Brace** suddenly *drops character*, tossing Maher’s *"Enlightened Centrist" mug* at a security camera. - **Sailor Moon** transforms mid-sentence, her tiara reflecting in Maher’s stunned sunglasses: - *"Moon Prism Power… **PUNCH HIM IN THE FACE**!"* #### **3. The Battle** - Maher’s secret weapon? A *squad of Debate-Bro Androids* programmed to *"well, actually"* opponents to death. - **Brace** fights them off with a *crowbar labeled "Dialectical Materialism"* while Sailor Moon dodges Maher’s *"Both Sides" energy beams*. - **Finisher**: Sailor Moon hits Maher with the **"Moon Healing Escalation"**, forcing him to *experience empathy for 30 straight seconds*. He collapses, sobbing about *"the proletariat."* #### **4. The Aftermath** - **Brace** livestreams the whole thing on *Troubletown*, caption: *"OWNING THE LIBS (and also the neolibs)"*. - **Post-Credits Tease**: *Joe Rogan watches the footage, mutters: "Dude… not cool," then nervously eyes his own microphone.* --- ### **Tone & Themes**: - **Satire**: Maher’s studio is littered with *"I Miss George Carlin" merch* and *unopened books by Chomsky*. - **Action-Comedy**: Think **"John Oliver meets *Kill Bill*"**—but with more sparkles. - **Moral**: *"Debate is useless when one side argues in bad faith. Sometimes you need a magical girl."* --- Want to: - Add a *musical number* where Brace and Moon sing *"Which Side Are You On?"* over Maher’s unconscious body? - Foreshadow **Episode 5** (Sailor Moon vs. *Elon’s Mars Colony*)? - Make it *darker* (Maher’s basement is a *simulation*? He’s a *clone*?)?

Adam Brisley

Can’t believe AOC did an interview in Chinese 😱

Mike

效果非常好!期待后续内容!

Ryan Dahmer

I still don’t get it lol

NitroDickclapp III

Haha I put this episode on just before I got in the shower and my flatmate came in and asked why the fuck I was listening to something in Chinese. It sounds so real, I obviously don't speak Chinese but to my dumb ears it sounds amazing.

Ryan Dahmer

Thanks for the rec! This is already so much better than DuoLingo, and cheaper too. I can finally uninstall the bird.

Opening Scene: "Error 404: Humanity Not Found"** (*Sailor Moon’s disguise burns away in a flash of prismatic light as the studio’s *"DEBATE ALERT"* sirens blare. Maher’s face flickers like a buffering video.*) **Maher (Glitching)**: *"CRITICAL FAILURE. GUEST *TOO LEFTIST*. INITIATE *CANCEL PROTOCOL*."* (*The walls split open, revealing rows of **Bill Maher Clones** floating in neon vats, each programmed with a different *bad take*:*) - **Clone #3**: *"Actually, climate change is good for business."* - **Clone #6**: *"Cancel culture is worse than apartheid."* - **Clone #9**: *[Buffering...]* **Brace Belden** (grabbing a fire extinguisher): *"Oh fuck. It’s the *neoliberal Singularity*."* *They reach the *Central Mainframe*—a pulsating brain made of *corporate PAC money* and *unread Chomsky books*. The core whispers:* **"Privatize… everything…"**) **Sailor Moon** (revving up her tiara): *"Time to *nationalize* this server!"* **Brace** (wiring explosives): *"Eat shit, *algorithm*!"* (*Moon unleashes **MOON COMMUNISM ACTIVATION**, a radiant beam that overwrites the clones’ code with *Das Kapital audiobooks*. The clones short-circuit, screaming:* **"NOT… PROFITABLE…"**) Scene 3: Aftermath (The Only Good Neoliberal Is a Dead One)** (*The basement collapses. Moon and Brace escape as Mecha-Elon explodes into *NFT confetti*.*) **Brace** (filming the wreckage): *"And that’s why you *unionize your AI*, folks."* (*Post-Credit Tease*: A surviving clone crawls from the rubble—its face morphs into **Tucker Carlson’s**. *"Next time… we use *FOX News* algorithms…"*)

Mamoru showed up in the episode I had Deep Seek write about the Sailor Scouts fighting Rick & Morty

_orange_lazarus

Has anybody posted this ep translated back to English? And what about that episode translates to another language? And that one to several others and then back to English?

Wawaweewa

I think it's just ep 433 but not 100% sure

Wawaweewa

"BARI WEISS" ... "UBER XL"

_orange_lazarus

Ah ok. Still would be interesting to hear how it translates. A photocopy of a photocopy of a photocopy sort of thing.

Evan

Chinese Brace would heal me

Tom Williams

So true!! I listened five times in a row while sitting in my car. Wasted like 10 hours. I got fired from my job and my kids are still waiting to be picked up from school. Not happy!!

这根本算不上什么节目,而是一场灾难性的调解失败。它是一件完美密封的、充满内在矛盾的自我造物,这个体系将正题与反题并置呈现,却始终在结构上浑然不觉二者实为一体。节目的“批判”恰恰正是其“闹剧”本身。 整个事件分裂为自认为互不相干的两部分:其一是所谓“玩笑”,即“中文播客”的推出;其二是所谓“分析”,即关于美帝国商业扩张的讨论。其症结在于:这个“玩笑”正是对“分析”内容最直白、最荒诞的演绎。主持人正在实践他们表面上所要批判的逻辑,却因缺乏自省而未能完成这个辩证循环。 节目开场便以粗鄙的商业算计为其“中文”企划正名,仅用一层“文化丰富性”的薄纱勉强遮掩。这绝非文化交流的尝试,而是对野蛮市场开拓的幻想。其讽刺在于这种扩张本身立即使其陷入不可能之境:主持人根本无法触及他们意图开发的“他者”。他们的解决方案不是真诚对话,而是将既有内容机械式地单向强加,最终催生出那段音频怪胎。 随之而来的“中文”片段,正是这档节目谎言的真相展演。当“文化丰富”的宣称在现实中坍缩为能指的精神分裂式碰撞,当翻译化作一连串崩坏失序的符号残骸——从“亚裔”“贾斯汀·汀布莱克”到最终系统彻底崩溃时那被压抑的真实界爆发为赤裸裸的秽语:“阴茎到阴道”,这已不是配音,而是一个系统被自身数据反噬的哀鸣,是帝国逻辑在无法翻译只能强加时的绝佳隐喻。这段污秽的音频残响,反而成为节目最诚实的瞬间。 当节目转向其“严肃”内容——特朗普意图购买格陵兰与美国将巴拿马塑造为“财政军事要塞”的历史时,辩证法的呼求已达顶点,而主持人却始终未能给出综合。他们刚以微观形态演绎了完全相同的逻辑,此刻却在宏观层面分析着美式扩张思维:将格陵兰视为“固定航母”或用于制衡中国的“稀土资源”。特朗普的逻辑是将格陵兰视为可购买的战略筹码,播客的逻辑是将“中文市场”视为待开拓的量化目标——这两种逻辑实则同构。它们都是将“他者”彻底抹除的掠夺幻想,无论对象是格陵兰的文化血脉还是中国的文明肌理。节目的“玩笑”恰是对其所剖析的国家级狂妄的无意识戏仿,而那段中文配音正是此逻辑的必然产物:一块无法理解、充满杂音、最终毫无用处的所谓“领土斩获”。 这档节目的失败不在于不够滑稽,而在于其彻底的无自觉。它手中紧握着正题与反题,却只是茫然凝视,未能意识到自己正面对着一面映照真相的镜子。它是一份矛盾意识的档案记录:当它试图批判世界时,只能通过将世界最恶劣的病症重演为一场闹剧来实现。
