this isn't really their fault. millenials were the first generation to grow up with the internet but zoomers were the first generation to grow up on the internet.
Simply adjust your uppers and downers until you perceive reality at the appropiate speed.
I've never listened to a podcast at a higher speed, that sounds hard to follow. Plus if I cut down the time it takes to hear a podcast that just means i have to find more content to fill my work day and I already have so many podcasts I listen to solely because the ones I really like have already been consumed for the week.
Whenever I have to listen to a podcast without my app that cuts down the silent pauses I want to scream
Have I grown/regressed or is amber way cooler now? Haven’t listened since Virgil got burned.
Side note: what’s the line on that? Reeks of an op of some sort. I understand why they didn’t circle the wagons, but it sucks seeing somebody fall on a sword like that for the greater good of not creating bad precedent.
looked like a bad faith(heh) accusation to me. between that happening and his presumable loss of faith in electoralism, my theory is that it was easier to let the character die
Makes sense. Still a sad day for the left when we are this dumbass and self destructive
she's been cool the whole time, and she's always right. even when she's on some bullshit and wrong, she's right.
also i'm 99% the virgil thing was fake. i think him leaving Internet Left Media was largely unrelated, and i think the podcast probably broke with him for other reasons. they're not craven enough to cut someone off just because of some accusation without evidence, and they're not cowardly enough to never bring it up if they did have evidence. everything about the situation reads like it was some kind of personal falling out that they don't feel obligated to share with the hogs. don't worry, in 10 years i'll buy the self-published tell-all memoirs and post them for the 33 other people still listening on here and we can find out the truth.
I agree it does seem like they had some kind of mutual-but-complicated falling out. Like Virgil already took a 6 month hiatus after the Bernie campaign and then tried to to move into more mainstream media with Brie.
The accusation against him was probably the last straw though, like I'm pretty sure he disappeared within a week of it dropping, which ironically is the best evidence that the accusation was true.
Wow can’t believe they brought back the controversial 4th Chapo to riff about Abortion, Matthew Walther.
I'm not hip to internet discourse-- what the fuck are they even talking about near the end of the ep? At about an hour eight.
"by the way dad, erm, uh, by the way Matt"
Lol god she's a total goofus
Even when Amber makes great points, she (and Felix) have to fuck it up by criticizing certain "rhetorical practices" of the woke left. Saying "everyone but women" as if anybody is ignoring how much of a toll this takes on "women" when they are speaking out for or discussing intersectionality.
Hey, guess what, the idea that it's not just white women, but black women, poor women, trans men, disabled people, etc is in fact giving voice to a much larger coalition than if you were just going at it with "just women". Grow up.
