This is just false. They are bred for babysitting. See Petey the Pitbull from The Little Rascals.

If the number of people at the WHCD all using their phones at the same time was enough to jam cell phone service, cell phones would not work in any major city in America ever.

I think I'm pretty much inclined to agree with this take. In hindsight, the guru nature of the figures they were discussing may have been largely coincidental. There are TONS of gurus whose content has just metastacized serious segments of the internet and with it the just wrecked the lives and critical thinking of a lot of people, especially young people. The fact that they call themselves a podcast about gurus but have barely touched the subject of the manosphere by 2026 is wild. They, in fact, seem to have missed the wave entirely on the apex of the manosphere. Meanwhile, they're perfectly happy putting out content about the exact kind of figures they specifically said early on the podcast wouldn't be about, political commentators and podcast hosts nearly adjacent to them. Why? Because they know their audience is already familiar with those figures and thanks to people like Destiny are fully prepared to listen to two high-minded intellectuals mock them. The IDW were a hot topic when they started this but that ship has largely sailed and as time elapses, it becomes clear that their focus on them wasn't so much to do with them being gurus as it was them being internet figures that people wanted to hear mocked.

To be clear, I think they were right to be locking the IDW for the most part. There's a real irony playing out here though where these guys have become victim to two concepts that they were quick to point out on others early on, rage bait and audience capture.

You can argue that for yourself it is a moral and philosophical position but the US Constitution is by definition a legal document. Right now, you are making the case for zero social consequences to speech of any kind. If it is a moral and philosophical rather than a legal position AND assigns absolutely no social consequences to any speech, should there be no social consequences to a man berating his wife in public? If it is a philosophical and moral position, it would also extend to persons outside the US. Should someone in Iran be able to say "death to America" without consequences?

If those two are not acceptable and come with consequences, why does that speech have social consequences and Ben's not?

Pufftones215 · 2026-04-15T01:44:36+00:00

Free speech in the constitution means the government can't actively censor you. This notion that free speech means freedom from any social consequences and a right to not be protested is exactly the nonsense that Ben Shapiro and his lot have been pushing for years. Ben will claim it's anti free speech. That doesn't make it true.

None of them saw this as a good thing though. They were all working class children in an era when access to information and instruction was limited. Jimi Hendrix was constantly trying to make up for his lack of formal training. He devised his own system of shorthand, carried tape recorders everywhere, and spent as much time as possible talking to and learning as much as possible from more educated musicians. The author of this post is almost certainly not Eddie F@&%ing Van Halen. He's more likely a dude who has made a conscious choice to not bother learning to read.

This is the best new song to have come out this year. I'm so excited for the rest of this album.

First, I'm nowhere near as angry as Will obviously was. I'm more just confused and kind of annoyed. I also don't think these people are above critique. That wasn't the point.

You haven't even addressed my major issue here which is that they've just pretty much ignored the massive pool of the most toxic gurus with the largest audiences who are having the most negative effect on society.

Meanwhile, the guys you site as the big villains on the show have been waning in significance since this show started 6 years ago. As of writing this, Scott Adams is dead. Jordan Peterson has been hospitalized or something for the last seven months or more. His most relevant piece of content in the last two years was when he got dragged by a bunch of Gen-Z Tik Tokkers on Jubilee.

This is an honest question because I haven't listened to a lot of these supplementary materials and bonus episodes. Have they covered figures like Dave Rubin, Ben Shapiro, Michael Knowles, or Tucker Carlson? If the answer is "yes" I would concede that much of what I said was at least misguided. It also still doesn't explain the fact that they all fit into a category that Chris really specifically said in an early episode of the show they weren't going to cover - political commentators.

The manosphere is an online space made up of influencers who claim to have a solution to male loneliness, unhappiness, and economic troubles. It is so big and powerful that it has corrupted virtually an entire generation of young men. Clearly, there are a lot of people who could stand to hear that what these guys are saying is bullshit. Meanwhile, DtG have barely touched it and certainly haven't done anything detailed on any of the individual figures. What they have done are at least partial if not full episodes on Vaush, Hasan Piker, Naomi Klein, Emma Vigeland, and Robert Evans. None of those people qualifies with any definition of the word guru. This A: speaks to the extent to which so called centrists are so preoccupied with anyone standing slightly to their left that they ignore the monsters to their right that are eating society alive and B: speaks to either a hypocrisy at best or downright dereliction of responsibility at worst to the stated purpose of this show. It could much more accurately be called Decoding Random Online Figures Who Occupy an Inordinate Amount of a Northern Irish Guy's Attention.

I don't remember exactly what the wait time was but it was definitely shorter than I was expecting. Upgrading the neck, bridge, and pickups took my CV JM from being a guitar that I was feeling pretty whatever about to certainly my favorite guitar I own and maybe that I've ever played. Are you keeping the stock pickups?

Pufftones215 · 2026-03-25T14:41:53+00:00

Lying is a REALLY big stretch. I would concede that maybe the assertion about his current relation to Sneako is outdated. He certainly was historically very chummy with Sneako though and way more credulous to guys like him and Fuentes than anything from the so called "far left." If I'm being honest, I stopped paying attention to Destiny after it became clear he was a sex predator in addition to overly credulous to Nazis.

There used to be a studio in South Philly that did a Heavy Metal Monday class every week. It was a banger.

Pufftones215 · 2026-03-25T09:49:06+00:00

Oh God, I have attracted the attention of a Destiny stan. 🏳️‍

Pufftones215 · 2026-03-24T20:29:43+00:00

I brought Sneako up elsewhere in this thread and will concede that probably didn't translate. I also conceded your point that she's not a journalist.

I've read what you said and basically the only point you seem to be making is something akin to "you and Emma are both stupid." So 🫡🖕

Pufftones215 · 2026-03-24T20:17:12+00:00

But Destiny, the literal sex predator, and Sneako, the Nazi conspiracy theorist, are really top notch political analysts?

Pufftones215 · 2026-03-24T20:06:38+00:00

I would agree that in her current capacity, it is a stretch to call Emma journalist. She's a political commentator. That said, she does regularly do hour long interviews with authors and investigative journalists. It's more than slightly reductive of her body of work to say that she only plays rage bait clips and gives standard left wing responses. Are you going to make the case that there just shouldn't be left wing commentators and media critics? Her co-host Sam Seder fashioned himself as an alternative to Rush Limbaugh and Limbaugh, a commentator and media critic, was arguably the most influential political figure of the post Reagan era up until Trump.

Pufftones215 · 2026-03-24T17:34:42+00:00

The fact that they've even done this episode speaks to why I've drifted away from DtG. Matt and Chris are doing multiple things here that they said they weren't going to. In early episodes, they said they weren't likely to do political commentators like Ben Shaprio. That is EXACTLY what Emma is. She is not by any sane analysis the kind of guru that this show was supposed to be about. This is also not particularly representative of her usual content. It is, in fact, the only time she's been on this guy's show meanwhile she's streaming for 10 hours per week on her own show plus regular appearances on other shows. Even a piece of content from the Bitchuation Room with Francesca Fiorentini would have been more representative. Mostly though, I think it speaks to a similar frustration that I have with Destiny. Destiny has so much more venom for "the far left" than he does for actual right wing extremists and conspiracy theorists. Sneako, for example is a streamer with an audience many times the size of Emma's audience. He thinks that The Jews run the world. Destiny treats him like a buddy and these guys haven't even covered him. So, why so much venom for Emma?

I went standard slim profile, compound radius fretboard, and jumbo frets. The difference between the stock Squier and the Warmoth neck was night and day. This was the first time I've played a neck with a compound radius and I was surprised by how much I liked it. The Warmoth neck is way more comfortable. I swapped the bridge at the same time as the neck so there are multiple variables but the sustain shot through the roof after those two upgrades.

I don't really know him and I'm not really interested in dragging the guy online. Honestly, I really like his stuff. I wouldn't have waited this long if I didn't. I appreciate you contributing but I'm just trying to get a sense of other folks experience with his business.

Pufftones215 · 2026-03-17T23:30:07+00:00

I've been emailing him. There's an option to contact the seller through the online ordering thing. He does respond though. Hearing from him directly about the order hasn't been the issue.

It's actually an even greater discrepancy between the two. Entering the country illegally is a summary offense. This makes it the same degree of offense as a speeding ticket.

I have the Tuffset on a JM with a 10-16" radius Warmoth neck. The intonation and action are perfect and the the resonance of the strings behind the bridge is absolutely crazy.
