I think they’re unparalleled but I also don’t listen to every vaguely leftist podcast for 20 hours a day at 3x speed like some freaks in this thread

thats just one insane goon

my podcast is mostly cum town, trueanon, death is just around the corner, and matt christman's vlogs. ocassionally a chapo ep if it sounds good. sometimes citations needed but they do one like once a month and even more rarely one good one once a quarter. kinda fell off dick wolff train tho im still subbed to him but hes onlyy like 20 minutes long + 10 minutes of radio jingles

trueanon is great and probably the best ‘leftist’ podcast, but some of their episodes are so dense I will lose the plot if I zone out or get distracted for a minute or two. sometimes I just want to put on a clay mask, light a candle and sit in the bath listening to cumtown. it’s a land of contrasts.

it's not a rhetorical question, for politely saying 'you are an idiot, you don't know what you are talking about'


trueanon is undoubtedly the most entertaining of all the 'leftist' shows that ive listened to. far and away a better entertainment product than the rest of that middling garbage.

i'll be honest i skip the epstein eps of trueanon but i love every other ep they do on random things they're really on about. their eps on the koch brothers and the powell memo poo poo were excellent

guilty as charged. matt and felix are the ones i like hearing ramble the most so im gunna sicko mode purestrain iv that poo poo straight into the jugular until my brain explodes wiht random civil war factoids about the worst confederate general and how one senator derailed the reconstruction.

i still do; just not as often as i've listened to them over the last 4+ years. WW84 ep was really funny and they've still got it.

also i kind agree the epstein gizzlaine episodes are probably my least favorite at the moment. sometimes the epstein-adjacent ones can be interesting like the one about modelling world and jean luc brunel is something im not familiar with. maybe if some actual big juicy deets happen but I feel like an Epstien/Ghizzlane episode is mostly just rehashed poo poo that's been said a lot already and isn't anything new there.

e: The Cock Bros 2-parter episode is totally top tier and people should listen to that one. The ending on the part 2 is :discourse:

yeah trueanon is like x files in that the motw eps are significantly better than the ‘lore’ eps. also I’m just finishing the new one and it’s really good, despite not having a really cogent theme or political point. I think I just like listening to interesting people talk.

i feel like there was a tommy gun loaded with cancellation scandals spraying everywhere at everything in 2018-20 and transfiguring heard-down-the-grapevine that it's impossible to keep track of anything whatsoever even if there was. poo poo just blurs together unless it was memorable for some reason (like that one dsa chapter-head)

According to wikipedia he drives a school bus now but he got like almost a million dollar settlement from U of Illinois so I assume he just does it for fun so he would 100% be a great fit for trueanon

since Finklestein is a topic again go listen to ALABs episodes on Dershowitz (15-16) which deal pretty heavily with the details of how Finklestein got hosed over by the shittiest lawyer in America.

and top it off with this 10 minute candid recording of fink and dersh talking in a restaurant. You really get a sense of the dishonesty of dersh as a human being

Matt's streams have been consistently way more interesting than the main show for at least 6 months now imo. Maybe it's just because I like 19th century history a lot but he always has insightful takes and I don't feel like the main show really works that well anymore. I think if Amber and Matt did more of those Frost-Christman episodes, Inebriated Past, etc. that would be good enough for me.

I agree with what others have said about TrueAnon though. Definitely the best in that subgenre of podcasts.

chapo is the best its ever been imo, but yeah the matt v-logs are really good as well

true anon is awesome, they’ve been killing it

outside of that, i have not really heard any podcasts that can combine politics and comedy in the same way with good chemistry between the hosts. it seems like a pretty difficult thing to pull off
