- Hosts are red-pill adjacent
Been listening for at least 8 years. Used to be a phenomenal show, and the older episodes are worth a listen. As time went on, Ben and Aaron seemed to be trying to be more “edgy,” using slurs on purpose, being racist and sexist here and there, seeming to buy in to alt-right conspiracy theories, but it wasn’t constant.

I had to chime in because I don’t want to see Ben and Aaron’s blood, sweat, and tears go down in a fiery ball of flames. Please come back or get new (and heavily vetted) hosts before your ratings drop beyond repair. I didn’t make it 2 months with these new clowns. Brandon rambles way too fast, his cadence is nonexistent, and he gives me the ick… these guys are far from professional by any stretch of the imagination. Like nails on a chalkboard. So disappointing…
Apple Podcasts1zgamrUnited Statesa month ago - Terrible
The repeated mispronunciation of extraterrestrial is the last straw for me.
Apple Podcasts1Sparklebunny80United Statesa month ago - Used to be good
Used to be a great show, truly. Old hosts were skating the red pill line and got even worse on their new show. New hosts also seem to flirting with the red line. Just stick to high strangeness and leave the sexism out of it.
Apple Podcasts1MamaSmoke2United Statesa month ago - Bring back the Aussies!
This makes me so sad. After being off podcasts for a bit, I came back to find Ben and Aaron replaced by rambling nonsense. They go off topic, make incorrect statements, and are so dull. What a bummer. Please bring the Aussies back!
