Also, I hope they do a Ben Franklin episode so we can finally find out if he was or wasn't president.

Dave called him the Elon Musk of the 1700's so I am kind of looking forward to an episode

It’s not usually too bad in the episode proper, but once the story ends you can just turn off the podcast because sometimes it just ends with 5-10 minutes of that

Some of this poo poo that's the only honest answer though. Their episode about PG&E? How else do you respond to "The lucky ones only lost everything they had, the rest died in a literal fire so some rich rear end in a top hat could make number go up and will never feel a moment's remorse for what they did"?

I don't listen to those. The Dollop is for people building a machine Jesus full of cum and hair or what happens when beer is only ten cents.

I also don't accept that doomerism is the only response to stuff but have no interest in debating that.

i introduced the dollop to a friend and she liked the first like, 30 episodes, and so when she saw that they were coming to town, we all went and saw them.

afterwards she told her husband she felt like she was getting preached at the whole time and it turned her off of the show and she stopped listening.

You really should have warned her that she probably wasn't going to hear some wacky baseball history.

When faced with the cruelty and darkness of the world we live in, the logical person is left with no choice but to make a podcast. To imply that one should not podcast is to be a naive fool.

She sounds like a delight! Was it them being on a stage with a microphone for an hour that did it?

The doomerism just feels like the natural end result of doing a podcast about american history honestly.

Ironically i was turned off an entire other podcast recently because the cohost decided to open an episode with an unhinged rant about dave anthony's unhinged rants with zero self awareness.

ive been to 3 in the detroit area.

the first one, about henry ford's henchman, who crushed strikes and had matt christman from chapo as a guest was fun and hilarious without all the preaching.

the one i brought my friend to was the charles lindbergh, where for some reason dave was angry about everything.

im pretty sure those episodes are still up and frankly i couldnt care less about plagiarizing historical journalism for a comedy podcast, especially when the draw is the guy who has no idea what the topic is. about.

They took down the episodes they got accused of plagiarizing but then continued plagiarizing much in the same way as in the Hbomberguy video that now everybody on the internet has seen: listing a bunch of sources on their website when the episode is 99% derived from a single source. Not every episode was like that, and maybe things have changed now they they have research assistants apparently, but there's a whole bunch of episodes where you could pick out the single article that they used and then rounded things out with some links to Wikipedia.

The thing is, Dave basically reading an article to Gareth is enough of a draw that they do a whole other podcast about it! There's nothing preventing them just saying the name of the article at the top.

its getting close to 8 million views less than a week after going up so they probably will eventually lol

at the very least more people have probably seen the video already than have ever listened to the dollop

You can walk or bike or drive while listening to a podcast, but you do, in theory, have to sit down and watch a video, so that's not surprising. I have heard rumors of sickos who play video games while watching youtube videos on another screen but those people will never see heaven.

(I watched like an hour of the video a day, it was good and informative)
