Will struggling to contain Matt and Felix's riffs on the latest episode was a nice hit of nostalgia.

    I have never listened to a single episode (weird for this site I know) is it actually worth getting into?

      The actual pod is pretty hit or miss. If you just want the hits check out Acid Marxist's youtube channel, they've done a great job of sifting through the hundreds of hours of dry boys to find the best parts. The hands down best start-to-finish episode they've ever done was when they went to CPAC in 2017 and :matt-jokerfied: did acid, some a-tier comedy.

      Edit: The movie and tv reviews are all pretty awesome, I like the jack ryan eps and the Avatar review

        That was 2018, not 2017. I know because I started listening in 2018 and that was one of the first handful of episodes they did after I started.

      Sometimes, yeah. On a recent episodes Matt stressed how every institution works to prevent one thing: Talking to your neighbors. On that same episode Felix framed the infinite money our country funnels into law enforcement as a weakpoint of neoliberalism, as that is how much it costs the wealthy to protect themselves. Their mercenaries are one paycheck away from being on the public's side.

      Normal for the site, and I'm an original r/CTH refugee and me either
