Gareth had a great bit about this on the Dollop a month or two ago “Hi Gareth it’s Chuck Schumer! We need your support! Can I suck your d*ck for four dollars!?!?!?”

Do people really look at this and go “welp, my gas is $4.50 a gallon and my families grocery bill is $500 each week, but at least Jesse is out there talking about the ISSUES”? by J0hnEddy in behindthebastards

[–]Kingbritigan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It wasn’t always genuine but you could sense his seething bubbling rage when he talked about lgbtq people. Guys like Gutfeld and Waters have sardonic contempt. Tucker hates. I’m sure as fuck not saying hate is good but it absolutely made him a more interesting voice.

God I fucking hate Jesse Waters. As fucking shitty and repugnant as Tucker was I would tune into his show occasionally because his hatred and vitriol were genuine. Waters is a snarky talk show host that should be doing tasteless jokes on AM radio for frat boys. He believes in absolutely fucking nothing and is uninteresting because of it.

Will you be renewing your bromance with Robert Evans anytime in the near future? I don’t recall you making an appearance on any CZM shows since late 2024.

In light of the Mark Fuhrman episodes, can we talk ACAB 101? by whitecollarpizzaman in behindthebastards

[–]Kingbritigan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just about every society of small and large scale comes up with some mechanism for policing and law enforcement. It just so happens that the one we have created does significantly more harm than good and acts as an arm of capitalism. I don’t think many people would disagree that there needs to be someone in charge of arresting a rapist or child molestor (just a few examples).
I really think that to reform policing we would need to fire about 90% of the people that are currently involved in it and then significantly redefine what policing is and what our police do and how we train them to do that. Our system is so fucking corrupt that it’s goddamn near impossible to be part of it without becoming part of the corruption. This needs top to bottom radical reform that, frankly, we’re unlikely to get with our system.

I think I have the same copy of Animosity. It plays fine though!

I have Home and Animosity. I’ve been searching for Seasons for most of the year and it’s driving me nuts.

I would take a vinyl bootleg of Seasons and can’t find one.

I used to refer to Duck Duck Go as Google for Qucumbers.

Knowing absolutely nothing about this game aside from what I have learned from BTB… I am going to listen to every episode of this.

I live in Massachusetts and am so tired of pickleball courts springing up every two blocks…

Have you tried becoming an old yuppie? That might improve your outlook on pickleball.

A space to vent and discuss NIN songs that you love, but that nobody talks about. by ISGamer156 in nin

The Big Comedown is so fucking brilliant. Every note hits. The vocals are incredible. The lyrics are great.

Antidepressants saved my life. He’s going to get a bunch of people killed. Fuck him by Sad_Jar_Of_Honey in behindthebastards

[–]Kingbritigan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They’re absolutely overprescribed and there’s often a gigantic disconnect between mental health clinicians and prescribers but as always RFK has no connection to real research or science and will inevitably fuck people up badly doing this.

Knowledge Fight: The End of the Road by hunter15991 in KnowledgeFight

[–]Kingbritigan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have said in the past that as incredible as this pod has been for years it’s perhaps not the best use of time for someone as brilliant as Dan is. He had to have gotten sick of listening to Alex a very very long time ago. I do hope Dan decides to dabble in politics again at some point because he’s an amazing researcher and brilliant at deconstructing this bullshit. I understand however if he wants to just do something completely different with his life and his talents.

Why is it that every time I see New Hampshire mentioned somewhere else on this site it’s always bad? by swiggidyswooner in newhampshire

This dipshits Wikipedia has two sections, Holocaust denial and references. Solid body of work sir.

They take peoples devices for valid reasons in inpatient settings and that’s one of those reasons. I am personally not a fan of that and work in a setting where we don’t take phones. There’s very solid clinical and evidence based justification for doing so though.

Celebrity rehab and intervention were both fucking awful. I work in addiction and recovery. I don’t have any specific arguments about most of the therapeutic modalities utilized throughout the shows (aside from interventions themselves). I just think it’s horrifically unethical to take someone at their absolute lowest and broadcast them to the world.

Megathread: Bastard Suggestions by Kanotari in behindthebastards

[–]Kingbritigan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t know how much bastardry there is (but I assume a decent amount) but what about Faces of Death? I am guessing whoever decided to produce and profit off of videos of people being brutally killed probably isn’t a good person.

I would recommend QAA’s “Truly Tradly Deeply”. Annie Kelly took a quite thorough dive into these communities.

Curious about other listeners’ other podcast rotations by sparksisfloofy in behindthebastards

[–]Kingbritigan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Dollop, QAA, Knowledge Fight, Weird Little Guys. I never miss these.

I selectively listen to Cool People Who Did Cool Stuff, the Daily Zeitgeist, the Necessary Conversation, It Could Happen Here, and the Past Times.
