I also appreciate the “political talk”
Very funny until midway thru when it started getting political. Most people are looking to escape politics after getting barraged all day and night on the news and online - disappointing enough where I just had to turn it off. Be comical not political.
I was recommended this podcast from a friend. I’m a huge Seinfeld fan. Enjoyed the carrot top episode and then had to listen to his delusion about the terrible state the country finds itself. Hopefully he the decides to do a comedy podcast. I think he’s a very funny comedian and will listen if he stuck to comedy.
Carrot top is hilarious and interesting. Look at the reviews mentioning Epsteins best friend! Literally the definition of snowflake weaklings! Such whiny MAGAts.
Maria Bamford! Great episode. Love your podcast.
