Description

Weird Little Guys is a weekly show about the worst people you’ve never heard of, taking you beyond the headlines to get to know the race warriors and aspiring terrorists trying to unravel the fabric of our society. Weaving together the origin stories of modern American white supremacist groups and the crimes that land their members in court, independent journalist Molly Conger exposes the monsters for what they really are - some weird guy. Whether they’re conspiring to build bombs or serving swastika shaped cookies at a dinner party, the weird little guys trying to destroy America are a little less scary with their masks off.

In 2017, an anti-Muslim nonprofit crowd-sourced the organization of a nationwide series of rallies. Many of the people who stepped up to help turned out to be well known white supremacists.

In 1976, the recently paroled assassin went back to prison after being arrested in Charlottesville. He was acquitted on the charge of being naked in a stranger's living room, but he'd violated his parole. He's tried to stay out of the spotlight ever since. Decades later, his son wrote that he was a changed man. His comments after the 2017 Unite the Right rally say otherwise.Sources:Schmaltz, William H. (2013).

American Fart Party

The American Freedom Party and the American Fart party have a couple things in common - the acronym, for one thing. They've also both filed paperwork with the federal election commission claiming to be a national political party. One is a silly little joke about farts, the other is a group of white nationalists who don't know how to do paperwork.

In 2024, voters in Enid, Oklahoma replaced him - a recall election removed him from office as a city commissioner. During his short time in office, members of the American Freedom Party rallied to support him.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hi Molly, thanks for a great podcast. I'm catching up and thought you may like to know that not only did Dutton lose the election we had this weekend (3 May), but he lost his own seat as well.

The show host is so ignorant he is unaware that Hitler did not call his followers 'Nazis' nor 'Fascists'. Socialists will never explain that Hitler's flag symbol represented "S means SOCIALISM" (a top discovery by Historian Dr. Rex Curry). Hitler's flag is an IQ test. For proof just "describe the symbols for the groups NSV, SA, SS, & VW as if you are telling someone who cannot see the images". No where in Mein Kampf does Hitler ever self-identify by using the terms "Nazi" nor "Fascist". Mein Kampf shows Hitler repeatedly using the term "SOCIALIST" to describe his dogma.

I don't think terrorism should be free speech. People going to argue bombs are free speech? as long as no one is hurt? 🙄

The far right desperately wants to seem like the Voice of the People, but whenever they have their little rallies they are met by thousands of regular people who want nothing to do with them. This podcast is interesting because it shows that something similar is going on with individual far-righters. Their organizations are cult-like, their businesses (when they have any) are mostly scams and their friends and family get tired of their racist conspiracy theories and leave.

Great series, phenomenal episode! I am not sure if I remember Falcon and The Snowman being based on a true story, but I am so thrilled THIS story made this WEIRD connection to one of my favorite spy movies of all time. If you haven't seen it, it's worth a watch and really close to the story told in this epsiode. Only they made margaritas and not Mai Tais. Ha! Molly, from one Virginian to another...thank you for the work you do.
