Since unsurprisingly the Redscare people are going fash, it would be good to know who's a grifter and who's not. What's your predictions?
My predictions:
Grifters:
- Zizek
- AOC
- 1-2 from Cumtown (it's anyone's guess)
Not Grifters
- The Deprogram Boys (ok I'm still in honeymoon)
- Jezza (obviously)
- Richard Wolfe & Harriet Fraad
- Viki1999
I love TrashFuture, but probably them. A large number of leftist podcasts fall into either Chapo-adjacent (TrueAnon, Trillbillies, Antifada, etc.) or TrashFuture-adjacent (Bottlemen, WTYP, Kill James Bond, Lions Led by Donkeys) and while I listen to a lot of the TF ones they’ve always felt much more grifty to me
Liam is definitely a grifter, Alice and :rocz-yes: are on the maybe list.

Yeah it's also like, he didn't set out to make leftist content. He basically started WTYP because he was Roz's roommate and didn't have much else to do.
I’ll be honest I have no fucking idea

There are a couple of eps where Felix is playing CS:GO.
If he was watching a Stanley cup game it’s ok

He’s one of the hosts of the dirtbag left podcast, Chapo Trap House
Pretty much just looks like you dont like the WTYP hosts.... WTYP, TF, Kill James Bond, Lions led by donkeys. You can kinda see a trend here.
Oh no to be clear I listen to all of those except lions led by donkeys, and I’ve listened to a lot of that too. If I had a new episode of every podcast I listen to, West Wing Thing is probably the only one that I’d listen to before TF, and WTYP would be next. Alice in particular I really like, I honestly can’t get enough of stuff she makes. Liam isn’t my favorite, and I love that his dad always dunks on him for being a lib.
