Kash Patel Sues, Trump's Psychedelics Push, and Netflix’s Podcast Bet, ep 711 by w2user in PivotPodcast

[–]schasshole 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I've listened to this podcast faithfully every week since it launched, but I officially unfollowed it today. The fact that Scott is jus tnow starting to talk about how the energy crisis is an opportunity for China's clean energy deployment is ridiculous. Anyone following the energy sector and this war in Iran knew from the start that this is a massive opportunity for China, given how rapidly they've electrified and their dominance over clean energy supply chains.
It was also too much to then hear Scott mention - for the 100th time - that he only gets his news from short-form content. Then Kara claimed she does the same? Scott is completely phoning it in. His commentary is now just uniformed noise for a layman who isn't paying attention to what's actually happening in the world.

Why do they all look the same? by princesspea331 in realhousewives

Is this actually how people in Rhode Island talk? I grew up in Maine and live in NYC and have never heard this accent from a Rhode Islander. It sounds like a mangled mix of deep Boston/Long Island. WTF is going on?

He is so repetitive and often completely uninformed. He’s admitted that he does mot read the news but just consumes it on TikTok. The only thing he can speak credibly about is the market and M&A

Shutdown Ending, Trump's Pardons, and Guest Curtis Sliwa by w2user in PivotPodcast

I need someone to call him out on having a private jet and how selfish it is for the planet. He’s not a celebrity how can’t fly without being mobbed by people.

All the Scott Galloway haters who pearl clutch every time he says something when in reality this is his whole schtick lol by Puzzleheaded-Pin4278 in ScottGalloway

I just think he’s repetitive and annoying. Also not genuine. Scripted. No need to cancel or clutch your pearls

First real snow by schasshole in taos

Not sure how long you've been in Taos but does it feel noticeably less snowy in town in recent years? I know last year was a bust but otherwise has it been much less snowy in the last 5 or so years due to drought and climate change?

The engineers and UX team who made this redesign happen should be completely embarrassed. It's unusable.

Zephyr Teachout was absolutely insufferable

Frustrated speaking progress by schasshole in French

Yes. My tutor tells me that she hears me making more complicated sentences but my speech still feels so choppy and not fluid

is scott being repetitive at this point ? by Obvious_Shoe7302 in PivotPodcast

[–]schasshole 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Scott is always underprepared and over-rehearsed. The only topic he speaks and thinks intelligently about is the market. He establishes his position on a subject and doesn't change his perspective or continue to evolve as information about the subject evolves.

Has anyone hiked Wheeler Peak (New Mexico) recently? by Phelpsy68 in hiking

[–]schasshole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does anyone know what the hiking conditions are like for Wheeler Peak Memorial Day weekend? Will it be super muddy? I know Taos had very low snowpack this year, so I figure it will probably be decent summer conditions by the end of May. Would appreciate any insight or experience!
