    Lol this is tough to answer. I feel like they're a vibe podcast. You just listen to them and passively become simultaneously blackpilled and hopeful.

    They had a few episodes about JD Vance/hillbilly elegy which were good. That should be easily searchable. I otherwise don't have much of a mental rolladex for them.

    Oh also, Tonya hasn't been on the show for over 6 months now. I think she's basically left it for good. Afaik she likes the show and her cohosts, she's keeping a low profile because teaching an extracurricular (lgbtq friendly) sex ed program has left her the target of a ton of death threats due to the recent transphobic "groomer" moral panic.

      I'm bringing up the Tonya thing as often as possible because she's a good person and a fun Podcaster, and it fucking sucks so much that chuds ruined her life because they're afraid of condoms.

    #142 has a good 5 minutes about "no, not in minecraft, we need to shoot capitalists with a gun in real life"

    Episode 89: Getting queer about rural America is a great episode where they interview Rachel Garringer who was doing an oral history project

    93: McMansion Heck has an interview with Kate Wagner of McMansion Hell fame

    112: No one agency should have all that power, the crew discusses a piece Terance wrote for the baffler, great in depth dive on why the non profit world is terrible and cant actually fix anything systemic

    The Year Zero miniseries they did around when covid started was a good one but kinda dense

    Can't find the episode, but the one where they interview Sturgil Simpson is good fun as well

    Probably unpopular opinion but I think the Sunday service episodes are funniest, the youth pastor with the drum machine or whatever that Terrence does, I think about that a lot
