This episode is as cathartic to me as I imagine the Mike Rowe one was to other folks. Edit: I started whoop-laughing at the women's rights clip, jesus claw game handjob fucked around with this message at 00:09 on Apr 11, 2019 |

John Stossel's name needs to be a synonym for bad faith. Jesus Christ, Adam and Nima unpacking that piece about the pregnant woman who worked for CATO is rage inducing.

Ugh this episode reminded me of a teacher I had who gave me a copy of The Fountainhead in high school and encouraged me to write an essay for some Randian scholarship program. Red pilled for by the American educational system!

It seemed so dry at first, but it helps a lot that Nima and Adam are actually pretty funny guys. Where'd everyone start listening to the podcast? I started with their show on The West Wing for some reason (someone prolly mentioned it in the Chapo thread), subscribed, then realized how good it was after listening to new episodes as they came out. Ended up going through their entire back catalogue, which I definitely recommend: a lot of the poo poo they discuss seems to be pretty evergreen, so it all remains pretty relevant.

My first episode was one of the ones on US imperialism. Looking through the episode list it was probably the human rights concern troll or the always stumbling us empire episodes.

I’ve listened to about five, it is great so far. I especially liked the one on legalized gambling, and on Mike Rowe and John Stossel. The hosts are good about citing sources and not excessively getting into personal stories, or *shudder* complaining about twitter feuds.

I really like that they avoid the latter for the most part....every now and then they definitely say some things that indicate they're very Online, but not so much that it'd prevent me from reccing the podcast to friends and family. Glad it doesn't get in the way.

Yeah they're good about staying in their lane, but also letting their righteous fury come through clearly. It's like an anti-decorum vaccine.

It's a tough line to walk between being too dry and being all HOW DARE YOU SIR HAVE YOU NO SHAME I'M REAL MAD ON MY PODCAST and they strike the exact right balance while also saying smart things. it's a pretty good cast

It's probably been mentioned but Adam also hosts The Appeal podcast which is about prison reform and abolition and it's also very good. Slightly different format which leans almost entirely on interviews with activists and experts but I've found it be very informative about so many things that I didn't have any knowledge about wrt incarceration

This episode is frustrating because it keeps beating around the bush of state monopoly on violence and the philosophy thereof. I know that's not really their thing, but it's not possible to really comprehend the issue without at least giving that some discussion

After listening to that for a bit, I also realized that CN and The Appeal are both produced by the same extremely bad-rear end woman, Florence Barrau-Adams, who I looked up and found out also produces yet another extremely good podcast called Justice in America. It's worth a listen. Here's their SoundCloud if you want to check it out.

The West Wing episode. When Trump won my former AFSCME colleague retreated into a fugue state and started binge watching the series again. It's scary how much that show motivates and influences the democrat party base.

It's scary how much that show motivates and influences the democrat party base. Dave Antony's West Wing pod cast is a pretty good assessment of that. I resisted listening to it because I thought the premise was stupid but it's actually pretty engaging. If you only listen to one, listen to episode 4, with Dave freaking the gently caress out about "practical idealism"

Saw multiple recommendations in c-spam for their two-parter on Bill Gates' fawning coverage by the media, then binged through the whole back catalog over the next couple months. It's pretty much impossible to watch/hear/read any MSM without relating it back to one of their episodes now, lol.
