Episode 454: Jerusalem Flatline

Episode 454: Jerusalem Flatline

Author: Trillbilly Worker's Party July 24, 2026 Duration: 1:48:42
This week we're looking at a hilariously grim foundational text of Christian Zionism: John Hagee's mid-aughts book "Jerusalem Countdown." We discuss the history of non-Jewish Zionism, the nature of the United States and Israel's relationship, and why no one can admit that Iran has gotten the upper hand against Israel and the U.S. We also talk discuss a few other texts in this, including Patrick Wolfe's "Traces of History," Regina Sharif's "Non-Jewish Zionism: Its Roots in Western History," and Adolf von Harnack's "The Expansion of Christianity in the First Three Centuries."

The Trillbilly Worker's Party podcast is a raucous and necessary dispatch from the hills and hollers, hosted by the collective known as the Trillbilly Worker's Party. This show operates on a simple, if contradictory, principle: life is a grind you didn't choose, so you might as well find the absurdity in it and laugh until it hurts. The hosts weave together sharp, unapologetic commentary on politics, culture, and the daily indignities of trying to get by, all filtered through the distinct lens of Appalachian experience. It’s a comedy podcast that refuses to separate the personal from the political, finding humor in the bleak and solidarity in the struggle. You’ll hear conversations that feel like sitting on a porch with friends who are smarter and funnier than anyone on cable news, dissecting everything from corporate greed to local weirdness with equal parts wit and venom. The tone is sardonic, deeply informed, and relentlessly authentic, offering a perspective often missing from the mainstream. Listening to this podcast feels like being let in on a long-running inside joke where the punchline is the entire collapsing system, and the only sane response is to throw your head back and cackle. It’s for anyone who’s ever felt the tension between the desire to simply enjoy life and the relentless demands of a world built on work, a celebration of resistance through collective laughter and gritted teeth.
