Uh! Double up Uh! Uh!
They probably deserve some pirating.

You’re taking something from an artist for free because it’s not important enough to you for you to pay for it. If you couldn’t have it for free you’d just opt not to have it at all. Either way money wouldn’t be going to the artist.

If they put AI art on merch I’d be more pissed but I don’t think this is putting anything extra in their pocket.

Mitch relayed a couple half remembered anecdotes from a Vice pice on going to North Korea (I’ve already forgotten why, it might have been by mentioning Dennis Rodman?). For example, saying that a lot of North Korea is on state intranet rather than worldwide internet.

Raiza’s comments were worse/weirder because even though she has traveled to Cuba to visit family, her conception of the lack of international trade between Cuba and a lot of countries was “because of being communist,” absent any mention of embargos or sanctions. She suggested maybe individual liberties were even more restricted in Cuba than DPRK…

I say this some what earnestly: scatological humor is kind of egalitarian because there is no punching down. No one loses status except for the person telling the joke.

That's why WIger and Mitch had such an issue with the name 'Eggslut'. For them, the world 'slut' is always going to be an attack, and thus unfunny. Doughboy humor is built around self deprecation and using that to make fun of the stupid society that created you, not attacking vulnerable people for punchlines. That's my high on my day off take, anyway.

I have an unfounded theory that Emma brought Jemmi in to keep Wiger and Mitch from escalating into full blow arguments on pod. Could you image how bad Nick and Mitch would feel if their bickering scared the dog?

I'm sure they're exaggerating, but for one video or other when I went to see some visual gag, one of the top youtube comments was someone complaining that the dog was a distraction and that they needed to source alternate dog daycare options or something

just this hypothetical actually made me worry about their feelings lol. Emma might be a genius manipulator as well as genius podcast engineer/producer

I'd kind of like Emma and Chef Kevin to make a documentary about comedy podcast production

Seriously. The Reddit page is just filled with parasocial freaks who basically build out fan fiction about what they’re “actually” thinking. My favorite is when commenters are like “it’s obvious Mike and Nick hated this guest.”

Oh god they do that for so many podcasts and the like, I hate it so much. There’s a local radio show I listen to and the dedicated subreddit goes so far as to say the regulars on the show hate each other. That is, when the redditors themselves are constantly bitching about how much they hate everyone on the show and nobody likes it, despite it being #1 in its time slot.

I left Reddit when that whole API debacle went down and I do not miss how terrible redditors are

Kind of crazy that this Cuban-American woman with an 80 year old Cuban immigrant father and raised in a Cuba-American community in Miami and has been to Cuba has opinions about Cuba that don’t completely align with middled-aged podcast fans. How can she be so wrong?

plenty of people have been to Cuba and I certainly didn’t leave thinking the impediment to trade was "communism." America's largest non-bordering trading partner is communist! the only people who think nonsense like that were all

To be earnest for a moment, this reminds me of Irish people saying that their Irish-American relatives have crazy Troubles era politics about Ireland because that’s all they know from their immigrant grandparents. That’s the point I was trying to make earlier. While I don’t actually agree with her opinion, I understand the context of her lived experience and do not kneel-jerk dismiss her like a dickhead.
