Welcome to Without a Country, where Corinne Fisher breaks down the biggest stories in politics, culture, and the internet without the usual filter.

This episode covers a wide range of topics, starting with a review of the new documentary series Trust Me: The False Prophet and Russell Brand still talking about the most disgusting acts on podcasts, and a listener submitted story about sloths who are being treated poorly.

Corinne get into the chilling tale of Rapper/R&B star D4vd who has been charged in the murder of a 14 year old girl. Corinne gives a recap of the story from several different news sources and the evidence that has piled up by internet slueths over the years with everything from songs, to discord shout outs and even archived livestreams.

There’s also a look at the DOJ going after The Southern Poverty Law Center seemingly for following the same playbook the FBI did to infiltrate the Black Panthers in the 1970's. Corinne exams the origins of the group, what they were doing with the money, how it can be construed as "fraud" and more.

Later in the episode, Corinne talks about the problems that the Trump administration is facing, another female staffer being made to fall on the sword for the sins of the regime, an update on the Straight Of Hormuz and so much more!

The episode wraps up with a deeper look at Spencer Pratt's surge in the LA Mayoral race and Kash Patel suing The Atlantic!
