War_Takes (3x guest) and Liam are the worst part of WTYP. They both have this bizarre tendency to pretend the US is a historical force for progress while genuinely and sincerely believing the liberal side of pro-war US propaganda (particularly with regards to this current proxy war where we're sending the entire country of ukraine into a meat grinder so russia can't sell liquid natural gas to germany). The enemy at the gates thing coming out of liam's mouth isn't surprising since he seems to think the only reason the USSR survived WW2 is because of lend lease from united states, air superiority, etc. Liam likes to yell "Scoreboard, baby!" every time WW2 comes up because the country full of capitalists doing business with the nazis all through the 1920s and 1930s are apparently the sole reason the holocaust ended. It's a bleak kind of politics. He revels in his ignorance. the fact that his other podcast is him getting history lessons from an Afghanistan war veteran isn't helpful either.
he seems to revel in being an awful person, between near reactionary political views and basically all his stories and anecdotes revolving around being drunk or driving recklessly or driving recklessly while drunk
who cares but

I think he’s been quietly replaced on that one. Even the radlib sad veteran turned Armenian nationalist couldn’t take him anymore.
