the best part is when he says "it's even curved so that it points towards your face" because you can also hold it so that it's pointed away from your face, presumably proving that it is actually a forbidden fruit the lord does not want us to partake of

Also you know bananas are the result of millennia of selective breeding and domestication by humans to the point where they can only proliferate via cultivation from clippings since we bred the seeds out of them so it's actually a great illustration of evolution.

Huzanko posted:They clearly are and want to be more than a ~*~ comedy podcast ~*~ but they maintain the cop-out of being such in order to deflect current and future criticisms and responsibility. I don't blame them for this but dipshit fans need to stop echoing it. Not really. They are a comedic podcast about politics. Because politics are real, and serious, they ocassionally have episodes that are more serious. But if you look at the show's guests, they're basically: 1) funny people they know from online 2) funny writers who share their politics broadly 3) actual comedians 4) serious journalists or political figures. They've had two high-profile 'serious' guests this year (Naomi Klein and China Mieville) compared to at least 4 'comedic' ones (David Cross, Tim Heidecker on multiple episodes, Patton Oswalt, Rob Delaney). They've also had completely apolitical people like Adam Friedland or leyawn, just because of humor. It's a popular podcast that would probably have no problem getting journalists from publications such as The Intercept, or DSA and other types of political organizers, if they wanted to. You can probably see the fact that these types of guests aren't super common as a conscious decision to steer the show away from that.

joepinetree posted:Comparing Chapo to what the Crooked Media guys are doing is nonsense. Crooked media was formed by 4 high level white house staffers who have had the support and participation of essentially the entire democratic party. They are not forming a coalition as much as energizing one that already existed. And even then, they did it because of the access that they had to pretty much every single big name democratic and media person out there. They're all a bunch of white guys, is my issue. One group has gone out of their way to actively recruit outside, underrepresented voices, some of whom have been leading Labor movements, and they made those folks regular features. And it ain't the podcast you'd expect. The more leftwing podcast should have MORE access to those groups, if anything. But that's kinda beside the point, because I have zero interest in making an us/them issue in the face of literal Republican pedo Senators at our doorstep. I respect the hell out of what Chapo has done and continues to do. I want to make it clear that I'm not making demands of this goodass podcast because they do what they want, and they're doing a great job for the DSA, and that's their prerogative. But if you want to talk about direct action, that's another topic entirely. Sure, it's a Comedy Podcast, but are y'all invested in the concepts or not? It's a Comedy podcast that frequently rails against failed Institutions a lot, so it's hard to ignore that frequently bemoaned issue when other people are addressing it on the ground instead of just bitching about it. That seems to be one of their beefs with the Democratic party. And I have a huge beef with the Parties as well. But I also need the boys to shut the gently caress up sometimes, especially when it comes to VA and AL. Crisco Kid fucked around with this message at 13:33 on Nov 20, 2017 |

I dunno, seems like Chapo has done OK at recruiting minority guests. Pod Save America made a whole network, so they've got more resources to dole out. Chapo doesn't seem interested in creating a network, so all they have are 2 guest host spots a week.

If your problem is that there aren't enough PoC or direct action types on Chapo, there are plenty of other podcasts around that can fill that hole.

Comparing Chapo to guys who can afford to run a whole podcast network is pretty absurd. Yea no poo poo CM and all have more venues to put PoC out and all, they have a poo poo ton more resources than Chapo does. Chapo seems to be trying very hard to get diverse guests and all but they're mainly bound by 'who can we get a good skype going with or who's local in New York'.

Yea my point was more that they're limited by scheduled and all much more than the guys who have a lot more funding/resources are. If Pod wants a dude on they can work around things or use other podcasts on the network to help out, whereas Chapo is pretty much 'we have two shows to record a week, and we'd like to at least stay topical mostly so if you can't be here for this recording it's kinda a narrow window'.

I couldn't finish the recent ross douthat episode of the gabfest it was too much even for me. PSA doesn't really claim to be leftist does it? they're more mouthpiece for the progressive establishment, which doesnt bother me as much as when David Plotz goes off on some riff about trusting the police. Worst parts of PSA are the ads and every time they try to be like chapo.

My favorite moment in PSA history was when they casually dropped that one of the reasons Obama gave up on eliminating the private jet tax exemption* was that democratic donors got super upset. Something that they simply dropped when mentioning how hard it was getting rid of deductions, and at no point ever mentioned again when discussing issues with the democratic party. *I am not talking about the tax exemption in the current republican proposal, but the one where companies are able to deduct expenses with private jets as security expenses. joepinetree fucked around with this message at 20:54 on Nov 20, 2017 |

I think my favorite PSA moment was right after the election when Mnuchin was nominated, and one of them said "maybe we should've prosecuted some of these guys so they wouldn't have cabinet appointments in the next admin." and the rest of the host kinda morosely say "yeah..." before moving on.

It was cool when Glenn Greenwald was on pod save the world and said some extremely basic anti-imperialism 101 stuff along the lines of "the US can't really claim moral authority on an international stage when they're the only country doing things like Vietnam and Iraq" and the lanyard guy was somehow totally thrown and was like "huh good point, I hadn't thought about it like that. Moving on..."
