This week worlds collide as the boys join forces for the first time ever with podcast luminary and mastermind behind "Hardcore History" - the legendary Dan Carlin.
Dated accent humor, standard lib takes on politics, and they add a humorous bent to true crime that is riding the line of taste.
I'm saying this as a big fan. I listen to them all the time, but they are definitely white guys in their 40's raised on South Park. The impression I get I that they are well meaning but with most things.
Edit: as an aside I think Henry is a budding leftist. A few months ago while researching MKUltra he mentioned that he went down a rabbit hole of leftist conspiracy theories, but unlike most conspiracy theories these ones have merit.
"If it weren't for you guys grounding me I would be living in a cabin like Ted Kaczynski and plotting against the government."
What makes them problematic? I don't know about the other two hosts but Ben on Abe Lincoln's Tophat just seemed like a generic democrat.

Henry’s for sure a budding leftist, he collabed on CTH’s 666 episode
I'd agree with that. A relic of the era where three white men entering the same room creates a quantum entanglement resulting in a podcast.
I like Henry, but the drop in episode quality paired with Ben and Marcus's shit takes eventually made me fall out of it completely.
Yeah I can't listen to the episodes about Russia, at all.
