Outrage on the Mic, Part 1: Laughing Through the Outrage

Aired Jul 2, 2025

Welcome to Part 1 of our special July series, Outrage on the Micโ€”where we hit pause on our usual format and team up with other podcasters to explore the outrage industrial complex from new and unexpected angles.

We’re kicking off with a fun and freewheeling conversation with the hosts of Outrage Factoryโ€”Dale Deruiter and Geoff Gauthierโ€”a show that takes a comedic and real-time look at the weekโ€™s most ridiculous headlines and online outrages.

Together, we dig into the performative nature of internet outrage, the absurdity of trending scandals, and how humor can both defuse and sometimes reinforce the outrage cycle. It’s an irreverent, insightful, and highly entertaining start to our three-part journey.
