As someone who has only listened to a few episodes of Chapo but absolutely loved the Brazile one (also listened to them dunking on Verrit and the righteous outrage at the article about the London apartment fire), do people have some recommendations for others which match that feel? I know the OP has popular episodes, but those are all pre-election and I'd be interested to see the high points for the past year.

I mean you're right but also that has no bearing on Wangs point lol.

It's kind dumb in a not funny way that they waste time and space publishing interviews with the weirdo Bank Lord Admiral who wants to nuke China.

You’re right they should have called him out for his bad opinions and taken him to task. You know, the literal exact opposite what they said their goal was in the Iowa AirBnB episode.

When some lovely magazine gives Marianne Williams a platform to spew her views about how vaccines kill or whatever, you can have a debate about platforming. When Chapo does and interview when they preface it weeks earlier (and likely after) with “this guy is loving nuts you should make memes about him” it’s not the time to serious post “are they BAD for letting him espouse his views?”.

Chapo is an entertaining podcast because it's idiosyncratic, the people who make the show are very particular and have pretty odd beliefs sometimes, the guests are a pretty weird array, etc. The lack of intellectual rigor aids in that. It's very enjoyable but can't be taken super seriously.
I have a vague recollection of this either coming up direct from the gang in a Q&A episode or online somewhere. Chapo is a funny comedy podcast that is run by a group that all has varying levels of left leaning views. They do a lot good things, they get people more involved in politics, they have legitimately good guests like labor leaders on and they talk about organizing, but also sometimes are dogshit. They're not Chapo: A Leftist Symposium for a Better World, they're doing comedy. And like most comedians they're idiots. Anytime the discussion gets into the actual views of the hosts themselves instead of the real issues, I want a gif of the Simpsons bus driver tapping a sign that says "it's a comedy podcast".

That said, I definitely acknowledge there's ton of people (not here, but we're talking subreddit types) who DO view it as an official Leftist © podcast that should be perfect in its views and I would buy an argument that Chapo has a better responsibility to make the distinction clear between entertainment and education.

Picturing an E1 spin-off called Two Weeks Late where they discuss a "current" event that happened two weeks ago and just purposefully argue for a point of view that was entirely disproved by following events.

And shut up, don't just reply back that this is how the world is now with TV pundits.

I love Chapo movie eps for the same reason I enjoy Matt trying to game because it proves everyone is exactly as stupid as everyone else when it comes to media. "Haha everyone loves the dang adventures am I right? Anyway James Cameron is a god and his Dances With Wolves Remake where the protag has racial reassignment surgery to be king of the Aliens is the best film I've ever seen."

That's not even to say they're always wrong, WW84 is an absolute horror show.

With you 100%. There were multiple times listening to the episode where they expressed absolute disbelief at something that was explained (albeit poorly / to the best of the movie's ability) and I wanted to get mad at them until someone--usually Matt--actually pointed it out and they went "oh yeah I guess anyway moving on".

Movie was abysmal, but the episode is still an absolute banger.

That's the key right there, effectively what Proust Malone said above. I like cigars, I have one every now and then and who gives a poo poo. But if you smoke them often enough for that to be a character trait people would remember when talking about you, you deserve all the ridicule you get.
