New Extra Credit episode out! Who's ready for male lactation fetishists?

Episode #121 - Father's Milk

I know what's up with that! After getting some repeated feedback and discussing it with the cast, we decided that we should remove our first 37 or so episodes because their quality is both beneath the standards we now hold ourselves to and has also apparently driven people away! Since we'd rather people listen to our podcast and NOT feel a strong compulsion to stop listening, we chose to just make them unavailable. We're actually working on a project to rerecord some of the old documents so we can retain the content, though that'll ofc take time. We're also gonna be doing a little more additional trimming for a number of reasons, but we're largely where we want to be.

Would it be too much to ask that a list of the missing episodes metadata (names and descriptions of the episodes) be available somewhere so we don't lose that as well as the audio? Just going to archive.org won't do, because they depend on database access and only a partial list can be retrieved. I didn't mind the bad audio quality if the material was interesting enough, I wish I'd kept more of the episodes I did get now.

A separate "Ancient History" page with the oldest episodes would be good, maybe with a big bold LISTEN AT YOUR OWN RISK text on top.

Also we went back to zity.biz. Yay?

Holy poo poo, that was wild when the plastic pants guy went directly from that weird kink story into talking about how his wife passed away and the whole panel is basically in shocked silence.

I can probably assemble a list, yeah. Every episode had a page on ballpit.

I also have a certain something in the works that features stuff from several of those episodes.

My proposal: We hit Lemon with a rock

Hi everyone. It's been a very long time since I've last posted on these forums. Recent events have urged me to come back. I was hesitant to stick my neck out, but an incident involving this podcast has prompted me to do something. I've made a tweet thread about it here:

https://twitter.com/bort_bortles/status/1385780189666308099

Last Friday when browsing the site, I came across a 404 error and in the corner was a cartoon of host John Toast in a cowboy hat and wearing a confederate flag. I immediately tweeted out to the F Plus and a handful of hosts, Lemon included. I was very upset seeing this symbol of white supremacy being shown on my favorite podcast site. Lemon's response was "I'm perfectly fine with having a conversation about this, but you're gonna need to adjust your tone significantly."

I am a first generation citizen. My parents emigrated from Mexico and within the last few years they've become naturalized. I've been fortunate enough to where I haven't had any racially motivated violence visited upon me or my family. That being said, I still know that symbols like the Confederate flag, the swastika, the blue lives matter flag, and the Trump flag are all banners waved by people who want hurt and kill people who look like me. Who aren't white. Even if Lemon didn't believe that I was a brown person, where the gently caress does he get off tone policing someone who points out a hate symbol on his site?

It's that sense of entitlement, that white privilege, that motivates other white people to hate people like me. I could hear the venom in his words as he told me to watch my tone. I could hear him spit those words and end his sentence calling me something hurtful. Lemon knows better. This podcast has been around for more than ten years. He's touched on all kinds of regressive poo poo and instances of white supremacy, racism, and fascism. Not only that but he's based in Minneapolis. The George Floyd protests happened in his city. Where does he get off telling someone to watch their tone in justified anger seeing a hate symbol? Lemon is a racist. I have no compunctions calling him that. One of my biggest issues with this podcast is the lack of diversity. How JW Freeman and Lou Fernandez are the only minority hosts and even then they're regular guests, not hosts. It creates this echo chamber and when obviously regressive poo poo like this is found, who's gonna speak out if it doesn't affect them personally? This right here is the clearest example of The F Plus' diversity problem.

Thankfully Nutshell and other hosts seem to agree with me. I want to exert as much pressure on this and hope he and other hosts of The F Plus and Extra Credit sees this. I will no longer listen to The F Plus so long as Lemon is associated with it. He's a bigot and bigotry has no place in The F Plus. I call upon other fans, contributors, and hosts to join me and demand Lemon and other hosts who align with him to leave The F Plus. It's way past time for forgiveness. The time for justice is now.

F Plus, Lemon, and their associated contributors and related projects condone racism and white supremacy until proven otherwise.

I think Lemon is a dumbass for responding to the op with tone policing bullshit but I think it's a stretch to say everyone in the F+, including Lemon, support white supremacy because of a dumbass cartoon cowboy on an error page.

Ugly In The Morning posted:

Isn’t what most people mean by tone policing more telling oppressed people to not talk about their oppression in an angry way, “not telling people who are starting a conversation by flying off the handle at you directly to not do that”?

echopapa posted:

Or “starting a conversation” with a podcast that has maybe a few thousand listeners by airing your grievance to the whole Internet as if they were a multinational conglomerate instead of privately contacting the site owner and giving them a chance to fix it first?
