Mostly talking about stuff like breadtubers, chapo, and media personalities like that, I can kind of tell why people like Bernie and Jezza where they're at. Is it the added wealth being a popular media personality gives you, the need to give a consistent product, the need to appeal to a wide breadth of people, and so on?
edit: also props to Brett at RevLeft for continuing to radicalise himself as the show has gone on
I still like chapo. Except now they're doing the cynical nothing matters thing and I do enough of that on my own
I don’t listen to Chapo as much as I used to, but I’ve been watching Matt’s livestreams a couple times a week and his commentary and conversations help make sense of the world. That dude really knows his stuff, and he’s funny af. Best Chapo, in my opinion.

Matt is the only one I actually like for anything beyond cheap laughs.
Still worth a listen for their descriptive segments, which continue to be good. But yeah, they don't have a clear path forward and that kind of sucks, although who does at this point, especially with whatever the hell is going to happen with the election?
So much can happen between now and the end of the year that we have no idea what the world is going to look like next year lol. So many balls are in the air right now.
