added most excellent sketching to OP and also truncated the episode list, because let's be honest... just go to the podcast on your app / site / manager

could it be? the storied... quadruple post? It could! It could! Everyone please, for the sake of whatever deity you believe in, DO NOT WATCH this particular episode of The West Wing. We did it for you. We have absolved you by our sacrifice. It is rated 8.1/10 on IMDB, with 400+ purportedly human entities choosing to waste precious calories using their extensor/flexor digitales muscles to register this opinion. gently caress me.

There's a lot going on in this episode! We skipped some of it!

If I sound grosser and more incoherent than normal (particularly during the primary chat segment), I'm recovering from a minor cold thing and my throat is still sore/raw and my brain a bit more scattered than usual. On the other hand, if you think this is our greatest episode ever, feel free to simply  this post in solidarity

Speaking of stalwart refusal to base politics on superficiality, I shout out Willa Rogers in this episode: It's a twofer this week y'all and I had some fun in the ol' studio considering I was stoked about Simpsons references and metal music springing to mind unbidden. A little scattered in format, because there's a lot going on, but hey surprise! Most of it does not matter!

dirty lousy tramp posted:"go to bed please"? yeah I uh, it's... the whole exchange, which I clipped in its entirety and decided NOT to include just due to time concerns (this is our second longest episode) is loving terrible. Just a completely bald faced abandonment of Toby's principles based on cynical data-point calculations that are not only incorrect but really repugnant. which sucks because I'm a big fan of coalition-building and ecumenical socialism, and it's like... what if, I dunno, you DIDN'T deliberately antagonize your factions? You always could just Not Do Anything!

I would have gone for a Shadowrun comparison myself, as taking half the game to plan the run and then everything going wrong and most likely getting backstabbed once or twice is the standard.

The West Wing's primary fanbase are people who want to annihilate Social Security and Medicare and defend Bill Clinton by saying "the economy was good and we had peace." I hate this show, I mean I REALLY loving HATE this show. It went from ambivalence to pure hatred in college when every god drat law school professor splooged themselves over President Bartlett and his civility and intellect. It's just the worst show ever made.

I mean, sure, to an internet hyperbole extent. the premise that we have continually incorporated is that the show is actually not offensively bad per se, but that fact, that it is skillfully executed in technical regards, is what makes it insidious and accessible via cultural impression alone. A vessel for inane lovely politics made acceptable by competence

Since you're 35 now you should run for president on the platform that you will make the Bartlett adminstration real and then when you win be like "yeah I'll make it real... real TRASH" and own the libs Then like be president or whatever who cares

there's also a level of analysis of Bartlet v. The Women we left out of the recording, and that's the fact that any time he's confronted with any sort of eminently, irrefutably correct pushback on his ranting from someone (it's usually a woman) who he considers his inferior, his response is always to sulk and act hurt rather than continue to interact or engage. gently caress
