I mean, i guess podcasts are great if you like listening to small groups of white guys talking about how much smarter they are than everyone else and laughing at each others jokes and getting their dicks out of their pants to measure against each other and high five with their dicks.

been redpilled on chapo by posts i'm sure lots of ppl here are already familiar w https://doloresvek.wordpress.com/ for example, the biggest thing is that their families are all media dipshits and they're all media dipshits too, you're right cars it's brain rotting and not even acceptable to listen to in a distanced way. it's a garbage fire.
fuck these people.

Chapo is funny enough but i also get bored of it pretty quick. i was listening to it quite a lot when i was gunning for a personal best on tetris, its easy listening. Matt Christman probably has the best politics of the lot, you can hear him expressing doubt about the current DemSoc moment but he always pulls his punches so it might just be some gnawing self-doubt

i dont think anybody here really needs to be convinced of the limits of american social democrats, the dsa and their strategy of tailing the Bernie campaign

i dont know if it was in this thread or another one but someone was talking about the Mueller She Wrote podcast, which i thought was a rhizzone joke, then i assumed was some niche liberal podcast, but now i see they have like 2/3rds as many twitter followers as chapo and are charging 30$ for tickets to their events. always good to keep stuff like that in mind when 'socialism' seems to be on everybody's tongue.

i guess i have missed The Dickcast, i also never checked out Penis Pod, or Dicks Out Tonight... But they seem like they don't have much in common with Radio War Nerd where relatively humble guys interview people from the areas they're discussing, or at least people who have lived there for years, to try to find out what is actually going on

i suppose it doesn't matter given the convergence of how the two groups act, but the amateur-hour Online forensics are so bad here. these guys hijacked original-LF-style goonsmanship for Bernie Sanders campaign ads and Detective Snoopy here thinks they're imitating 4chan, it's like thinking rhinos evolved from horses because they both support their weight on the third toe

i'll write a gigantic run-on sentence on these our forums with a dozen commas in it every third time i post but i can't come close to



...when it comes to saying something we all probably agree with but in a way that also recommends a percoset and thirty minutes lie down in a dark room. sometimes it seems like these folks are operating on another level and sometimes it's what i imagine sitting through Hamilton must be like.

my observation is that podcast listeners barely care what the podcast is about. this is because the point of podcasts is to pretend that you are friends with the podcast hosts, or that you have friends at all in this atomized, dissolute american wastescape

i think a lot of the people who are mad at podcasts in the links on this page, people i agree with in general, should take a second to say their posts out of their mouth holes into a microphone, play it back and make faces at how they sound. okay right irony doesn't defend socialist politics, that doesn't mean you have to express yourself like an 18th-century cotton trader's pamphlet on the vices of the moldboard plow.

Podcasts are good for activities during which you can't read, like washing dishes, sweeping and mopping your room twice a day, walking to and from work, exercising, cleaning your room's windows four times a week, cooking, waxing your room's floor eight times a month, organizing receipts, fumigating your mattress bimonthly, folding your laundry, scrubbing and whitewashing your room's walls 6 times per season etc.
