For what it's worth, when they debated the Trad Cath guy in that abandoned/deleted thing (no idea if it's still up on Youtube), Matt was the only one besides Amber to actually try and stop the bullshit.

"Well, obviously you're okay with some censorship. What about filming animal abuse, you'd censor that, right?" and after they started getting bogged down Matt breaks out the "Wait, gently caress off! We're not talking about that. You want to ban sitcoms and Game of Thrones! We're talking about that!"

its hilarious to me that they havent erased every record of this interview, as if they think they came across as well informed or something. they got so thoroughly, meticulously owned by matt and virgil; id have just trashcanned the episode and pretended like it never happened
just point by point refutation of every argument they tried to make, I dont think matt conceded a single thing

It's true, not enough normal people listened to that interview to hear the part where Matt said "if you want to beat trump, vote for bernie because we will withhold our votes otherwise."

The only thing about that interview I want to mention, that hasn't been brought up a thousand times, is that Isikoff says he's never heard of CTH in early 2020. It's whatever, I don't know that he should, but it is really funny to be a politics podcaster and not recognize them.

for them, I think posing the questions as "wouldn't you agree that ______" or "but don't you think that ______" serves the purpose of creating the perfect filter. because it doesn't matter what you say after "No," the fact that you said No means your ideas aren't serious and therefore not worth considering.

Weirdly I have really enjoyed listened to Movie Mindset despite the fact that I’ve only seen like one of the films they’ve covered.

I end up enjoying listening to Will summarize the plot of the film and at the end I’m like “oh, nice, I don’t need to watch this now”
I have a hard time listening to movie podcasts about movies I haven't seen, at least when they're summarizing the plot. It just slides off my brain, becomes background noise, and aggravates me until I switch to something else. It's kinda weird to me, because "movie reviews where they walk you through the whole plot" is a very Internet 1.0 thing as far as I'm concerned. There were all these blogs devoted to bad movies, and they'd tell you what happens in detail, with screenshots, because nobody had high-speed Internet let alone libraries of entire movies online. But now it's back in podcast form. And a lot of it is the worst of both worlds, where they want to describe the plot but can't stay focused and constantly skip back and forth or go off on tangents.

I'm glad they didn't just walk through the plot of The Flash, since it sounds like such a loving mess anyway.
It's funny you brought it up, because I just randomly remembered it and listened to their followup a day or two before. I still can't believe just how bad Isikoff sounds. His voice is awful, then shifts to a different kind of awful when he starts in with the "Would you agree that..." stuff.

Joe Biden, the official candidate of the Skullduggery podcast! Seems kinda silly to say they "won" because they support whoever is the Democratic nominee.

I wasn't there for it, but my sister-in-law told me about going to see Infinity War with a friend, and she was dabbing tears from her eyes and literally said "This is so important" out loud. I've met her and she's a perfectly nice person and I feel bad for her (for being friends with my sister-in-law), but LOL.

It’s still funny to me that they shoved Batgirl in a vault for tax purposes, but then pushed through with getting The Flash out the door even in the face of Ezra Miller being insane, and it’s now going to make less than its ad budget

Everybody says they killed Batgirl for tax reasons, WB says they did it because the movie sucked. I believe both of those are true. But I now believe in a third secret reason as well. They killed Batgirl because once Miller went on their super crime spree they had to figure out something to put in commercials for the The Flash. And the best they had was the return of Michael Keaton Batman. Which wouldn't work if he had already returned in a straight to streaming movie 6 months before. There was nothing else they could use to advertise the movie they'd spent 200 million dollars on and was supposed to be the keystone linking the old DCCU to the new DCCU. So Batgirl had to die while Shazam 2 and Black Adam could be allowed to limp to theaters.

I assume they had to release the Flash movie because the child kidnapper needed to be allowed to play movie star as payment for unspecified services.
