today's West Wing Thing guest starred Chapo producer Chris Wade who actually went and saw Sorkin's To Kill A Mockingbird and it really is something. Sorkin may be the stupidest liberal alive.

Is that the co-host? I only listened to a few episodes but the one incredibly unfunny co host would derail the whole thing ever couple minutes. I think they mentioned he was a comedian, just absolutely dreadful.

I wouldn't listen to it all the time but I enjoyed the episodes about McCain, Feinstein, Bush, Perot, and LaRouche. The Proctor and Gamble satanic panic one was decent, too.

But Gareth is the weakest part to be sure.

I liked the crossover when the main host on chapo and enjoyed the larouche episode. Gareth just had this one bit on the war in squirrel episode that made me turn it off. I like the idea of the podcast, Ill give it another shot.

Yep. I've seen numerous people pop up elsewhere complaining that they were banned solely for that sort of poo poo. Not that I'm saying 'good riddance', since I post there regularly and enjoy its content. Just... probably would've been better if the Reddit admins hadn't stepped in a few months ago and loving removed/banned all the most active mods on the subreddit!

Virgil questioned Michael Moore more intensely than he questions actual candidates for public office.

I agreed with Virgil but it was still odd.

Also cringey how Moore went all in with "The Zoomers Will Save Us"

Otherwise it was a good Chapo ep

It's always the dumbest reason. Even when it's a really vile subreddit like the donald, they always find some idiotic, very mild rules violation to bring the hammer down.

I think it was intensity out of a shared sense of "CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS loving poo poo?!?!" as opposed to Virgil wanting to actually grill Moore.

Good interview.

That's lowballing it. She's right on 95% of poo poo, just insanely, glaringly wrong on a few things.
