That one was also like 6 hours long. Call me crazy but most movie podcasts don't run 3 times the length of the movie. Bob and Henry need to focus or edit themselves more because this poo poo is absurd

?? 6 hour long movie critiques are a time honored tradition dating back to The Phantom Menace

Man restaurants are so good

Just being brought food and drink while having a time with friends and loved ones, it was basically the only part of leaving my house that I missed during halfassed covid lockdown

If this is the ideological line in the sand then I'm sorry to say the capitalists are correct (it's not and the discourse is bad)
you can have a good time with friends while also serving yourself or waiting in line to be served

I feel like Fall of Civ sidestepped some of the controversial topics in the most recent episode on Petra, but otherwise it's a solid "put me to sleep" podcast.

i think that media guy is jewish and was proposing some kind of mysticism rather than explicit adoption of dogmatic, organised religion. this is still silly, however, and could be avoided if the USA didn't collectively decide that kant was for nerds and that pure reason is actually great and can solve all your problems

If you had to pick, oganized religion is way better for political organizing than "mysticism"

incredibly good episode. it’s heartwarming knowing even mao went through an anarchist phase, and I loved how he missed the boat in wuchang because he needed to borrow rubber boots before going. big goon energy lol

it’s decent to good overall, but I’ve had 3 complaints:
1) once Covid enters the scene, he starts going on about how oppressive the CCP and lockdowns are. he has entire episodes complaining about Covid lockdowns. I just skipped past them
2) same deal: in general he’s got America brain, and goes on tangents about how evil communism is. dumb but typical for podcasts.
3) he, like mike duncan and the age of napoleon guy, got mad that I poo poo-talked revolutions series 10 in the succ zone a while back
