  • How does the GF parse culture and politics?

    Long term fan of the Gabfest.

    I have been wondering how you all decide what is cultural regarding the political. Steve reading the ad for a planned parenthood seems political, as does covering Bruce’s Minneapolis song.

Not to mention the cultural shift in general - lots of great Palestinian stand-ups.

    I guess i am hoping it isn’t just a matter of pl... more

  • ICYMI journalistic malpractice

    The episode on Ethan Klein didn’t even attempt to do any fact-checking or reaching out to the other side. In turn, they have completely botched the story, which isn’t even primarily about Fauxmoi.
