Red Scare is an American cultural commentary and humor podcast founded in March 2018 [1] and hosted by Dasha Nekrasova and Anna Khachiyan. [2]
The show was initially associated with the dirtbag left [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] but is now increasingly associated with the new right, [8] [9] as well as the subculture surrounding Dimes Square. [10] [11] [12] [13] It has been described in The Cut as "a critique of feminism, and capitalism, from deep inside the culture they've spawned." [14]
Red Scare bills itself as a cultural commentary podcast hosted by "bohemian layabouts" [15] Dasha Nekrasova and Anna Khachiyan, and is recorded from their homes in Lower Manhattan, New York City. Nekrasova is a Belarus-born actress, who became known as "Sailor Socialism" [16] [17] after an interview with an InfoWars reporter went viral in 2018. She immigrated to Las Vegas, Nevada, with her acrobat parents when she was four. [18] Khachiyan is a Moscow-born writer, [19] art critic [20] [21] and daughter of Armenian mathematician Leonid Khachiyan. [22] She was raised in New Jersey. [14] The two women met on Twitter, and started the podcast in March 2018 after Nekrasova relocated to New York City from Los Angeles. [14]
Early episodes were produced by Meg Murnane, who also appeared as the show's third co-host. She made her last appearance on the show in October 2018, and episodes have been self-produced since then. On an episode released on December 5, 2018, Nekrasova and Khachiyan announced that they had parted ways with Murnane "amicably and mutually". [23]
The show covers current topics in American culture and politics and is a critique of neoliberalism and feminism in a manner both comedic and serious in tone. [14] The hosts are influenced by the work of Mark Fisher, Slavoj Žižek, Camille Paglia, Michel Houellebecq and Christopher Lasch. [24] [25] Recurring topics include Russiagate, the #MeToo movement, [19] woke consumerism and call-out culture.
Several writers, artists, social commentators and cultural figures from across the political spectrum have appeared on Red Scare, including Elizabeth Bruenig, Angela Nagle, Elena Velez, Tulsi Gabbard, Glenn Greenwald, Steve Bannon, [26] Tucker Carlson, [27] Slavoj Žižek, [28] Adam Curtis, Steve Sailer, Alex Jones and Curtis Yarvin. Nekrasova and Khachiyan have hosted several episodes of the show live, most notably broadcasting on NPR at The Green Space at WNYC and WQXR, as well as interviewing social media influencer Caroline Calloway at the Bell House in Brooklyn, [29] and John Waters as part of NPCC fest. [30] Khachiyan has been interviewed by Bret Easton Ellis and Eric Weinstein on their respective podcasts. [31] [32]
An episode of Red Scare is typically between 50 and 90 minutes long. The show's theme song is "All the Things She Said", the 2002 single by Russian pop duo t.A.T.u. Free episodes of the show are available via podcast hosting services such as Apple Podcasts and Spotify. Subscribers who contribute at least $5 per month via Patreon gain access to additional premium bonus episodes. As of June 2024, the show has generated over $50,000 per month from over 12,000 subscribers. [33]
As of December17, 2024, 401 episodes of Red Scare have been released. [1] [33] [34] The show's most frequent guest is photographer Dan Allegretto at eight appearances, followed by Amber A'Lee Frost of Chapo Trap House at seven appearances, and writer Patrik Sandberg and Glenn Greenwald at five appearances each.

The hosts have been called "provocateurs", with a New York Times op-ed dismissing Red Scare as a "louche hipster podcast" for its "contempt for social liberalism" and a desire to " épater la bourgeoisie ". [35] Both hosts supported Bernie Sanders in the 2020 Democratic primaries, [36] but later became disillusioned with both the political establishment and millennial leftist figures (such as Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez) for "ostensibly prioritizing identity politics over class". [37] [38] Nekrasova, a practicing Catholic who has expressed sedevacantist views, [39] has been credited for trending Catholicism in certain demographics of millennials and zoomers. [40] [41]
In a 2022 Vanity Fair article, conservative filmmaker Amanda Milius described Red Scare's laissez-faire attitude as a "premier example" of the "live-and-let-live place" occupied by the "new right", and reported that Khachiyan had met with billionaire venture capitalist Peter Thiel and U.S. Senate candidate Blake Masters. [9] Nekrasova and Khachiyan have repeatedly denied receiving any funding from Thiel. [42]
In 2021, Sydney Sweeney confirmed that Red Scare was the inspiration for the characters she and Brittany O'Grady played in the HBO satirical drama series The White Lotus , created by Mike White. White instructed Sweeney to listen to the podcast and base her performance on the hosts' specific vocal intonations. [43] [44] The Charli XCX song "Mean Girls", on her 2024 album Brat , was inspired by Nekrasova, [45] [46] with the singer telling Rolling Stone : “I wouldn’t say I’m deeply invested in edgelord culture, but have I scanned the texts? Sure.” [47] In the pilot episode of the FX show English Teacher , Brian Jordan Alvarez's ex-boyfriend (played by Jordan Firstman) describes himself as "basically a conservative at this point", before saying "I don't even know what I am anymore. I listen to Red Scare." [48] [49]
Audrey Gelman, Lena Dunham, [50] Chloë Sevigny, [51] Cazzie David, Leah McSweeney, [52] Jonah Hill, [53] Rachel Comey [54] and Elizabeth Olsen [55] have mentioned listening to the show in interviews. Gelman's husband, Genius co-founder Ilan Zechory, was a co-host on Red Scare Roundup, a podcast that recapped episodes of the show from May to November 2018. [14]

Charlotte Emma Aitchison, known professionally as Charli XCX, is an English singer and songwriter. Born in Cambridge and raised in Start Hill, Essex, Charli XCX began posting songs on Myspace in 2008 before entering the London rave scene. She signed a recording contract with Asylum Records in 2010, releasing a series of singles and mixtapes throughout 2011 and 2012. She later featured on "I Love It" with Swedish duo Icona Pop, with the song becoming her first number-one in the UK and receiving global success. Her debut studio album, True Romance (2013), was released to positive reviews but failed to meet commercial expectations.
Boiler Room is an online music broadcaster and club promoter based in London, United Kingdom. It hosts predominantly dance music events, focusing on underground genres, in locations internationally, and broadcasts the shows live over the internet.
"Boom Clap" is a song by English singer Charli XCX, released as the first single from the soundtrack album of The Fault in Our Stars (2014) and is also featured on her second studio album, Sucker. There are two existing mixes of this song: the first and original one is heard in the film, the film's soundtrack, and the music video shot in Amsterdam; the second mix is heard on the music video shot in Japan and in Sucker.

Chapo Trap House is an American socialist political comedy podcast launched in March 2016. Chapo Trap House is aligned with the dirtbag left, a style of contentious left-wing political discourse that eschews civility in favor of casual, blunt, often vulgar expression. Since its inception the show has been primarily hosted by Will Menaker along with a rotating cast of cohosts, which currently includes Felix Biederman, Matt Christman, and Amber A'Lee Frost, along with a variety of guest co-hosts. It is produced by Chris Wade.
Pop 2 is the fourth mixtape by English singer Charli XCX, released on 15 December 2017 by Asylum Records. Executively produced by A. G. Cook of PC Music, sessions for the mixtape began several months before its release and featured a wide variety of guest contributions. The mixtape was backed by its only single "Out of My Head" featuring Alma and Tove Lo, released exactly one week before its release.
"Girls Night Out" is a single by English singer Charli XCX. It was released on 26 July 2018 by Asylum Records and Atlantic Records UK as the third installment from a series of monthly single releases.
Daria Dmitrievna "Dasha" Nekrasova is an American actress, filmmaker, and co-host of the Red Scare podcast with Anna Khachiyan, based in New York City.
Dimes is a restaurant in the Lower East Side neighborhood of New York City. Alissa Wagner and Sabrina DeSousa founded it in 2013. There are also an associated deli, Dimes Deli, and a store, Dimes Market, in the same neighborhood.
The dirtbag left is a style of left-wing politics that eschews civility to convey a left-wing populist and anti-capitalist message using vulgarity. It is most closely associated with American left-wing online media that emerged in the mid-2010s, such as the podcast Chapo Trap House.
