Chapo is just brain candy for substance abusers to vibe with while not contributing to society or bettering themselves. Yeah, I listen. It’s funny at times, just don’t get your news or anything… important? Off of that podcast. If you carefully listen to podcasts, aren’t high all day long, and actually form your important opinions off of the entertainment media you consume then loving avoid at all costs.

Yeah they have some funny sketches, its usually stuff that isn't part of their weird horshoe rant poo poo though.

I hadn’t heard of a host named Texas on the show, but I only started listening to it in like the last year and I guess he left the show after he was outed as a groomer circa 2021.

Dunno. Before I started listening.

I have super bad tastes in podcasts though. I liked Rogan as brain candy for a long time as well until that became unbearable.

So far Harmontown hasn’t let me down but I’m not even 1/4th of the way through that back catalog.

He's a Daytona Beach sheriff who is routinely harassed by neo Nazis for actually trying to enforce laws against neo Nazis. WaPo did a profile on him a little bit ago. https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2023/04/20/florida-sheriff-hate-crimes/

I don't, because they're the type of people who believe that Pierre Sprey and James Burton are right about stuff, actually. They're also kinda people who suffer from "Leftist grunt brain", who default into "All officers are inherently evil" and "I could do anything in the military and know better than anyone else because I was a grunt."

Hell of a way to die is hosted by a reserve public affairs guy and an officer.


LLBD is hosted by a tanker, and has had a couple of cooks, a civvie and now an officer as a Co host.

Nate was a ranger tabbed officer and a grunt. Francis was a PAO and joe was a tanker.

Francis never pretends to be a grunt and tends to stay in his lane. Joe regularly says he doesn’t know stuff and admits he was a terrible soldier.

They’re pretty clear in their firmly-held beliefs that most people in the US military are idiots, including themselves.

Tbf I think the hosts of HOAWTD and LLBD would fit in pretty well in GIP.

You realize the dude really did fall asleep and fail to do his job, which was check the valve, right? He slept through his watch. Its his responsibility.
They repeatedly point out capitalism causes a lot of the accidents they talk about, so I don't really understand how you came to that conclusion. They called out that company refused to fund proper indication for what led to the failure. That's blaming capitalism.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=40Gl_O5rHtk&t=3030s Where they openly say the company was partially at fault for not installing proper indication lights. But that doesn't change that the guy falling asleep during his watch, which was also his responsibility, was a contributing factor.

Why did he fall asleep and was it actually his watch?

How come nobody else did anything about the giant gaping hole in the ship?

Why did the company not install the indicator light for the bow visor position? (Hint: it wasn’t just cost)

Did any other factor contribute to the low freeboard at the door?

Going “welp that dude hosed up, end of story” is a really lovely way of analyzing an accident; it’s an approach favoured by employers as it allows them to discharge responsibility to some guy low on the totem pole who - usually - was placed in an impossible position.

Yeah, no.
If your fail state of one guy not doing his job is that the loving ship sinks, you are dealing with a systemic issue, not a human error. Why was it not known the doors were not properly closed? Why did no one check?
The brief wiki summary implies that everyone thought he'd done it or was about to, and that right there sums up why the incident happened. No one checked.
