Like, I see all these other shows making podcast empires (Chapo has one, Rev left has one, etc.) while the podcast of the website continues to only be featured in Intercepted once. You'd think there would be more crossover between them and other left shows considering how popular Gramscian critiques are.
Citations Needed, especially if you donate to their patreon to get the patron only news briefs, is an excellent slow burn because you can tell during the normal episodes that they're really trying to maintain their professional decorum, having it occasionally slip, and then Biden announces that he is personally going to punch every black person because the Republicans told him to and then Nima and Adam just get to go off, and it's those moments where the professionalism breaks down is when I remember why I listen to them
Adam’s rage fuels me
Adam definitely passes the test of “is your hate pure”, together with breht
I didn't like RevLeft at first but Breht is so fucking cool

I still remember the first time I heard him talk about having to be institutionalized when he was a teenager because capitalism gave him an existential crisis and it felt so just....validating to know there was ONE other person who was literally driven to the point of insanity by the implications of this society because man highschool was ROUGH for me
Living vicariously through Adam's rage is the only thing keeping me sane in this hell world.
