    You’re not so bad. Jack just doesn’t think you’re up to snuff. But what Jack bemoans as “the toxic podcast” is really just two girls with a tendency to be bitter bears manifesting in Dasha calling for critics to be jailed and Anna lapsing into indignance over gain of function research.

    I'm here for the Darryl Hannah hate. Wish they would never talk about race and geopolitics, but when it comes to smug celebrities cynically claiming feminism for self promotion, these dames are top notch!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Podcast of Our Discontent w/ Thomas Chatterton Williams
Q: What do you think makes the left and right so polarized?
The left has lost its way, and its ideologies have been revealed as flawed, which has led to a perception that both sides are not evenly matched.
Podcast of Our Discontent w/ Thomas Chatterton Williams
Q: Who is your idealized imagined audience?
My ideal audience is someone who's open-minded, without a specific political position, willing to engage with ideas and think through them.
Call Him Brandon w/ Zoe Kestan
Q: Do you think he's sober now?
I hope so because he was in a lot of pain, and I feel sad for him if he isn't.
Call Him Brandon w/ Zoe Kestan
Q: What was your best memory of the relationship?
It's all just dark at this point, but there were funny things too, and it’s hard to think about fond memories given the context.
Call Him Brandon w/ Zoe Kestan
Q: Why did you want to talk to Joe and tell your story?
To counter the salacious and often misleading narratives circulating about my relationship and experiences.
