Is it acceptable to discuss Worst Year Ever here? I listened to the recent episode on Qanon and the guest was supposedly an expert on aum shinrikyo. She was supposed to connect it to Qanon but overall the guest felt like a real dud, for some reason she seemed uninterested in discussing her work.

So i'm a little behind but I listened to the first chapter of Evans' novel and it was fun but oh man somebody's been playing or reading some Shadowrun.

7seven7 posted:Oh yeah, we're hosed. Over a decade of an austerity driven Tory government, forty years of Murdoch dominated press, half a century of cuts to our health and education systems, all culminating in the election of a populist Trump-lite during a global pandemic, an encroaching recession, and the utter clusterfuck that is Brexit. The first chapter is fun, give it a listen! Fwiw its not like England has half a billion guns like the US does, so I guess thats something?

I don't know if I agree with you but its reasonable criticism, though I would suspect it was more than likely an off-the-cuff remark in an effort to make parallels and argue that responsible journalism needs to be thoughtful of the power it possesses rather than an articulation of a deeply held belief in the centrality of Evans' role in the Portland protests. lonelylikezoidberg fucked around with this message at 20:13 on Mar 14, 2021 |

Everett False posted:Robert has never dedicated a portion of the episode to describing a dove sunning itself in a garden, and I don't think there's ever been any meaningful integration of birdsong. It's always been the show's major flaw, but it felt rude to bring it up. I'll say what we've all been thinking: The man is right Robert Do it you coward lonelylikezoidberg fucked around with this message at 06:45 on Apr 23, 2021 |

Holy poo poo this person who is the guest on the Phyllis Schafley episode is both incredibly unfunny and wildly uninformed. It sucks real bad.

Phetz posted:If you want more Matt Lieb I highly recommend the Frotcast. Also I’m very excited for his upcoming The Wire rewatch podcast. I love the frotcast but the magic died when Ben the ear rapist died of cancer. E: also when Brendan and Brett left to have kids. Also Vince hasn't been the same since he has been married and happy.

Is it cool to talk about when we think guests are bad as long as we don't reach out to the guest directly?

I really liked My Year in Mensa but thought Ghost Church suffered comprehensively because Jamie Loftus couldn't get any actual recordings of anyone at the Spiritualist place in Florida.

Jamie Loftus is the best BtB guest. Andre Ti and Matt Lieb are all right too.

Better Offline was fun but Zitron is not super good at working with a guest; he seems like he mostly wants to monologue and lecture. That's fine! Just do that, you don't need another person.
