  • It's a fun podcast destroyed by its host's bigotry. It is always unfortunate to see a good product ruined by the intolerance of a bigoted artist, and that is exactly what happened here. There are better horror podcasts, even ones that share progressive values, that don't need to openly alienate everyone who doesn't agree with them. Save yourself some time and listen to one of those.

  • Been a faithful listener for years

    Party of love and acceptance strikes again 👍 Pretty sad to see you bring politics so hatefully into a completely NON political forum and ditch your friends over it. I’m not even a part of your group you’re hating on , but it disgusts me so you can f right off back into your echo chamber.
