Hosts Thomas Millary and Brett Carollo explore film from a deep politics perspective, demonstrating how the artistry of cinema combines with psychological and technological knowledge to engineer culture in subtle (and sometimes not-so-subtle) ways— making each of us the subject of the greatest mind control experiment in history.","last_synced_at":"2026-06-12T14:17:20.517408+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/psyop-cinema-4255066"},"episode":{"title":"Clint Eastwood and The Outlaw Josey Wales, with Jason McGinty","slug":"clint-eastwood-and-the-outlaw-josey-wales-with-jason-mcginty","published_at":"2026-03-10T04:00:05+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/psyop-cinema-4255066/clint-eastwood-and-the-outlaw-josey-wales-with-jason-mcginty","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/psyop-cinema-4255066","url":"https://www.spreaker.com/episode/clint-eastwood-and-the-outlaw-josey-wales-with-jason-mcginty--70557023","audio_url":"https://api.spreaker.com/download/episode/70557023/the_outlaw_jose_wales.mp3","summary":"Brett and Thomas are joined by Jason McGinty, author of The Unsung Substack, for a discussion of both Clint Eastwood's 1976 film The Outlaw Josey Wales and Eastwood's broader persona. We talk about the movie's use of the Lost Cause narrative about the Civil War, with Jason providing his expertise on the historical backdrop of the film, the war between the Jayhawker and Bushwhacker guerilla factions in Kansas and Missouri. With references to many Eastwood films and other aspects of his life and career, we make the case that the rugged individualism of his action movies was largely a Trojan horse, a masculine guise used to subvert the social order and accelerate the dissolution of the family. https://jasonmcginty.substack.com/ Use the code psyopcinema for a limited time 30% discount on the Decoding Culture Foundation website if you want to buy issue's #1 and #2 of the research anthology Cultural Engineering Studies (issue #3 available soon, on Hollywood Neo-Gnosticism) - https://decoding-culture.com/buy-print-issue-1/ https://decoding-culture.com/ces-issue-2/ https://twitter.com/CinemaPsyop https://psyopcinema.com/ thomas-psyopcinema@protonmail.com brett-psyopcinema@protonmail.com","meta_description":"Brett and Thomas are joined by Jason McGinty, author of The Unsung Substack, for a discussion of both Clint Eastwood's 1976 film The Outlaw Josey Wales an…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":8961,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/psyop-cinema-4255066/episodes/clint-eastwood-and-the-outlaw-josey-wales-with-jason-mcginty/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/psyop-cinema-4255066/clint-eastwood-and-the-outlaw-josey-wales-with-jason-mcginty.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
