The issue isn't the lack of jokes, but the lack of structure. HoP also didn't have many jokes (outside of Chris's kind of awkward attempts mostly), but Chris kept things moving from topic to topic (or edited things so that it flowed that way). In Hinge Points they just kind of aimlessly chat about the topic.

I don't mind listening to it, but it definitely could be better.

I agree, but even so I like it a lot. As an extremely dumb guy I have a really poor grasp of history and the counterfactual framing their meandering history chat really works for me for whatever reason. I feel like I'm learning more from it than eg. HoP which was really difficult me to focus on. I don't know maybe that's the counterfactual doing the work by being fun and interesting to think about.

I hope they do find their feet and tighten it up but I also hope they keep at least a bit of the same sort of freewheeling "yeah but what if...?" bullshitting between two buds.

This is actually a common liberal take. The rationale behind it is "if we pay more, we'll get better cops." The idea that paying people more will somehow make them more ethical is very funny.

it's a training/education thing. We pay more money so the cops can get more "training", which is synonymous with being better educated, which is the cure for all societal ills for liberals. Racism, sexism, bigotry of any type, is due to a lack of education that makes you bad, and getting more education makes you good, like me with my Media Studies degree from Vassar that made me a Good Person entitled to the comfortable lifestyle I lead. Not having enough education makes you an orcish brute like the Trump voters I detest, who have most assuredly all dropped out of high school because they're hillbillies. The solution to bad cops is simply to educate them that racism is not good but, in fact, very bad!

In a sense they're not totally off the mark because on thing higher education does is impress upon you liberal etiquette that they interpret as being the outward signifier of a good person, but are totally unable to recognize the very loud and prominent over-educated bigots everywhere. When pressed, eg. racists with graduate degrees are always cynically pretending at their bigotry for some sort of personal gain.

Felix, Matt and Will were all extremely nice to me when I ran into them walking around in public the day before a live show where I live. Way above and beyond what any reasonable person with annoying fans would be. It was 2018 so it may be different now, but Matt and especially Felix were very kind.

I had essentially the exact same experience, just after a show. Incredibly friendly guys and extremely generous with their time.

I don't think there's a lot of value in trying to pick apart what left values he's falling short of or whatever, he (like his followers) is just a liberal and does the sort of things and holds the same sort of worldview as liberals do, even if he can bring himself to say socialism is based on jeff bezos' video game tv. to be fair, this is true for any self-described leftist capital-C Content that tries to position itself as being politically important or constitute political action
