Of course not, I meant that they are experts in talking shit.

I tried a couple of times with Red Scare. The first time was South Park-level edgelord dumb, the second time was slightly less edgy, but pretty dull: just two self-satisfied tryhards having a boring conversation about how bored they were.

I guess it's a sign of the growth and popularity of the political left when even the left has a wing of self-promoting art star edgelords. Fitting that Lena Dunham is a fan even though they mock her for not being skinny.RS is awful. They're 100% locked on the left podcasters who'll go full right wing Angela NagleNagle was always a libertarian entryist. Nothing she has done in her career indicates being on the left. The assumption she on the left seems to be exclusively based on saying she is without actually looking at what she does.Muust have imagined those times she appeared on Chapo and Aufenbunga Bunga and AMber Alee Frost was her hype girl

I ve never checked out Red Scare, nor do I wish to. The œ shit-talking on these shows is always weak to me. Flores is too much of a mess right now for me to enjoy Pod Damn America and Season Of The Bitch is my go-to. I was very into the MMT and motherhood episodes.

Was really interested in lots of it including his interest in birding, Gary Snyder, and being outside. He is such a California hippie and makes no bones about it. I didn't realize the full extent of Fredric Jameson's direct influence on him to this day. I read a lot of FJ and was influenced by him as an aspiring literary/cultural studies scholar (one of my own academic mentors during my BA and MA was a student of FJ at Duke).That said, I've seen people claim KSR as a Marxist but I think he's more honest himself. In this interview he says literature is his religion (Sci-Fi is his hometown) and Marxist theory is just invaluable for understanding the world and that makes literature better. He's also totally out-to-lunch on hypothetical blockchain carbon markets as a path out of climate disaster. Like I say, a California hippie.

Yay! My good friend Garrett was on Delete Your Account recently to talk about him and his co-workers' recent unionizing at Anchor Brewing in San Francisco. Good stuff.Oh yeah, Brace Belden was also on Chapo recently talking about the same thing, also a good and hilarious episode.

Red Scare fuckin' sucks. Cumtown is terrible too but at least there are some jokes.
