Yesterday I was sitting on top of a half disassembled tractor engine, with grease and sockets everywhere, eating my lunch of falafel and listening to the episode about afghan heroin when my elderly MAGA nut/Jehovah's witness/ 24hr/day fox news watching manager walked in.
She offered no comment lol
"Dont worry, both of these are undecided voters. One sells crypto and the other is an anti semite (allegedly)"

One time I was giving a ride to a friend and my Bluetooth started playing an episode of trueanon I was on. I fumbled to pause it, but she had already heard some of it. Swear to God she turned her head and asked me "wait how is this guy gay if he's a pussy eater?"

I just started this podcast! Episode what, 16? My partner and I were listening to it together and laughing because it’s all about how health insurance is stacked against Americans. 2019, very relevant today.

The episode that came out like last week was about Afghanistan so it was probably that
