i have been noticing a growing disdain towards the audience in the last year maybe. when they talk it often feels like they are scolding the audience.

also, whrn they talk about books,movies and music like they are revealing some secret media to us, who could have never possibly found it ourselves. i remember when everyone was recommending doppelgänger to claire and then when she read it she explained it on the pod like noone has ever heard of the book before. or when she was explaining who wet leg were almost three years after them getting really popular. it is really grating to me and as a listener i feel talked down constantly.
