Lmao the difference in how Robert Evans talks about some made-up poo poo like the Holodomor with clear-eyed certainty versus playing devils advocate for rape, war crimes, and imperialism on the latest BtB about the Boy Scouts founder.

How can you tolerate listening to that

That sort of faux-left/lib-anarchist stuff is probably the most offensive and grating thing in modern US politics to me.

I used to listen to the guy because I found some of the stories interesting and because I have friends who like his show so we could talk about it but yeah the dude himself is entirely insufferable. I don’t think he posted in d&d but he’s basically d&d in podcast format. Just the biggest ego and not much to back it up

I dunno, I really liked the first year or so of BtB because it was mostly just a history book report with funny guests. it was somewhere around the time that he became a corporate media Bellingcat stooge that I noticed he kept using his time abroad to justify all US intervention with the same exhausted “they actually WANT US there!” line and yeah I’ve stopped listening to all his projects. America is not the world police, and we’ve never intervened if we didn’t have plans to enslave or exploit the people were “aiding”.

it’s also the only time I can remember there being an SA thread that got closed down by the guy that the thread was about arguing with everyone.

Lmao yeah him announcing to that thread that he was putting me on ignore because I wouldn’t stop saying “maybe you should stop defending spreading unsubstantiated racist rumors” and then the thread being close entirely because his fans couldn’t take it is pretty much the only posting I’ve ever been proud of

This is where I'm at - partly old habit from the days when it was less succ, partly still having friends who listen religiously and wanting to be able to have another thing to talk about with them when the topic sounds interesting.

Understand if people find the guy hard to listen to but yeah every once in a while there's something I'm interested in- was just a decent three-parter about three different foundational figures of our current outrage grifter-ey media ecosystem. The podcast book report about Joe Pyne interspersed with old clips from the show was alright

the one talking about Jack Parsons jerking off in the desert with L. Ron Hubbard is also a highlight
