Hi all, we here at In Bed with the Right have been on a bit of a tear lately -- we've been recording more episodes than normal, which is a fantastic position to be in! But now we're a little unsure on the order in which to release them, and we thought you, our amazing Patreon community, could help us decide. Barring any breaking news event that require an emergency episode, there are three more episodes coming this month:

Wither the Preachers? What's happening to the Christian Right and its characteristic gender politics in the age of boorish, aggressive alpha masculinity? We had a really fascinating discussion about how the Age of Trump is changing the Christian Right with historian Kristin Kobes du Mez, author of Jesus and John Wayne.

What was the deal with Pamela Paul? For this one, we're joined by noted podcast hosts (and fellow Paul-ologists) Michael Hobbes and Peter Shamshiri to discuss the influence and times of Pamela Paul, the New York Times's recently-departed opinion columnist.

Project 1933 -- Chapter 1 The first intstallment in a series, in which we discuss the Nazi seizure of power in Germany through the lens of gender and sexuality. The plan is to have an episode dealing with each month of 1933 released during the corresponding month of 2025. We obviously didn't get our act together in time, so this first one covers January 1 to March 15, 1933.

So, help us out: vote for the one you'd like us to finish editing and release first!

All of these sound like absolute bangers, can’t wait!!

Sean King

This was a great idea! Stoked for all of them, but it was fun to vote

Nick

Anyone who hasn’t read Andrea Long Chu’s piece on Pamela Paul, you’re in for a treat

Karen Cox

They all sound great!

Erika Ward

Excited for all of these.! ... and adding a gentle nudge about getting the RSS feed going, because I keep remembering to come back and listen *way* after I would if they were in my podcast app. <3

Sari Sakse

Agree on both the excitement and the RSS feed!

Jenny Cleary

My 1st thought on the what happened to the preachers is that they talk about being warriors & fighting but it’s all talk. Whats worked for them in the past aren’t the skills to be leading the right wing at this moment

Charlotte

Also agreed on being very excited for all of them and the RSS feed nudge. :)

So thanks to an audio error in the Project 1933 episode, we're having to go with the Preachers-episode! We apologize for going against the vote (although, in our defense, these numbers were *close*)!

Katie

The Preachers was so good, amazing guest, great conversation! Thank you!

Sarah

I really enjoyed the Preachers ep, thank you!

Laura

I really enjoyed the Preachers episode, Kristin Kobes Du Mez was the perfect guest!

Hey Erika and Sari, could you check whether you are able to grab an RSS feed now? We *think* we've set it up correctly, but it's a little hard to see from the back end? Or will we only be able to know for sure once we have a new episode up?

Erika Ward

I am seeing the feed! It's not loading correctly into my catcher, but it's sometimes cranky. I'll try again when I can restart everything.

Karen Cox

The next time you have an episode like the Pamela Paul one, use my word Ettle, for ETL, Even The Liberal.

Karen Cox

It was an excellent episode!

Nina V~

also, i know "nightmare gender stuff" IS your beat, but if y'all ever want to venture into the weeds and talk about GOOD cultural theory (or just cultural theory in general), i'd be here for it.

Addison Stumpf

Works for me, though it does appear to only have the newest episode (66) on it. Thanks for getting this set up!

Erika Ward

And it's working for me, too. Thank you!!

Sari Sakse

It seems to work for me too! But I also only see episode 66

Teja

The Project 1933 episode is so good!!

Suradha

So glad I voted for Project 1933 it's easily a top 5% episode of y'all's for me!
