I have no idea what their deal is. I tried to listen once but they were too quiet.

    They're ok, a lot of their audience seems waaaay too focused on stupidpol type stuff, and that sub has a lot of overlap with them. They're probably the worst of the Big 3 "Dirtbag Left" podcasts (Chapo, TrueAnon, and Red Scare). a few of their episodes are ok, like this one they released after the George Floyd protests were surprisingly pretty good. Ultimately the pod itself is meh (at least from what I have listened to), definitely doesn't have the same... energy? as Chapo and TA, mainly because of their insistence of le vocal fry, but their biggest issue definitely seem to be some of their audience.

        Yeah, i mean dirtbag cuz like they all kinda talk and hang out with each other. Red Scare, TrueAnon, Chapo, CumTown, and a couple others seem pretty close irl to each other.

        And yeah, if we are going by the textbook definition of "dirtbag left," TrueAnon definitely falls there (edgy humor and such)

          I went from TrueAnon to Chapo to TrueAnon, and I realized behind the veneer of dirtbagness and the humor, TrueAnon is so much more structured. More serious in a way? I’m not sure what it is.

      I mean Liz from TA has bigtime vocal fry but at least she doesn’t sound like she’s consistently half-awake the morning after a coke binge
