Episode 100 is going to be about Podcasts, what are some good podcast dramas for the show to talk about? I'll credit you

the whole mcelroy facebook group is insane. if you join it, check out the rules. you're not allowed to say one of the hosts looks good, because he's on a diet and it could trigger some overweight members of the group.

https://www.facebook.com/groups/mbmbam

quote:

Banned Goofs- Ask a Mod for further clarification
The following bits are banned from discussion in the group-

Glass Shark: fatphobic rhetoric, patois mocking
Bean Diet: fatphobic rhetoric
Fidget Spinners: ableism

here is the glass shark bit that you're not allowed to talk about because it's fatphobic and makes fun of black people apparantly:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bR0Ubck0IRA

Justin McElroy is on a bean protein based diet, but you're not allowed to talk about it because it is also fatphobic.

The smirlpocalypse was another MBMBAM adjacent thing, there might be some stuff here: I really don't want to read it again, but if you go down to the smirlpocalypse bit, basically the hosts mom got involved and it caused an implosion.

Maddox, remember him? He has a wikipedia subheading called Podcast and Lawsuit, which is probably a good place to start:

If you’re over 6 feet tall the short men episode is really funny because they’re both like “ok so here’s a woman saying anyone under 5’10 is a manlet, what a MANIAC am I right” for half of it

I’ve never been bothered by the audio quality.

RTP is usually pretty funny. The recent episodes on Pokémon and Gardening are two I remember as being pretty good.

I used to listen to MBMBAM a few years ago but fell off right after TAZ started because I found I wasn’t finding it as funny and I had enough other stuff to listen to. I have nothing against them really (I guess I think Travis and Justin are both kind of annoying whenever I see them on Twitter these days) I just thought that RTP being able to fill like 45 minutes with purely dumb poo poo Travis said and his apologies was funny.

That McElroy thread is very funny and a great microcosm of SA in general these days, just soft 40 year olds calling other people chuds and whatever other things they see more popular people say on twitter. Not this thread though of course

That thread is extremely embarrassing. I checked out once they decided "soy" was a slur. Also the audio on RTP is fine I have no idea what they were talking about.

The podcast guys who have an agent that puts them in actual Hollywood movies probably do probably have a better sounding podcast than RTP

You must be a masochist
I know you’re just bad faith posting to defend your favorite bad podcast, but no one had an issue with “soy.” People were irritated by “soy boy,” and no one argued it was a slur—just that it was some alt right bullshit that didn’t deserve the oxygen:

they were mad that people use the word soyface, a word where everyone knows what it's referring to; insisting instead that the morally upright use muppeting, a word that has never been spoken out loud, to mean the exact same thing
