  • Laughing at Charlie Kirk’s Death

    Loved this show and actually AGREE with you politically, but the glee you showed at the shooting of ANY person is disgusting. “Godspeed to the bullet” you said. A man is dead, his family and friends are in mourning, and you’re literally laughing about it. Shame on you. This is a free country where freedom of speech is a constitutional right, and NOBODY should be assassinated for exercising their right. Unsubscribing now.

  • Amazing

    This podcast is so good. Really well researched deep dives. Great social commentary. Funny banter. Joan and Matt wear their politics on their sleeves but come across in a very real, grounded, non performative way. Perfect balance of serious and fun. When I’m less broke I will be subscribing to the Patreon but till then 5 stars will have to suffice
