it discusses the Synanon cult that was born out of AA, how it related to MKULTRA and 60s psychiatric research, and how it birthed the modern troubled teen industry.

Turns out when they really script out what they want to talk about in advance, True Anon is an informative, comprehensible podcast.

Trueanon is the bridge between chapo and citations needed, even the more riff-y TA episodes are more insightful than most chapo episodes
I 100% listen to Chapo for lighthearted vaguely-political entertainment. Occasionally they do have quality interviews, but I mostly just like the way they vibe together and they make me chuckle.
The last episode I caught was the one where they dismiss Settlers as paralyzing (third worldist stuff can be, for sure) but the funniest part was that none of them had even read it. They were just making guesses based on how the people they spoke to about it who had read it acted. Fuckin lol.

True enough
Although it's best to give something a good try before commenting, you can see the effect of some piece without reading the piece itself. Being about 70% through myself, it's not far off from how it's usually portrayed in leftist circles.
