I mean at some point we'll have brought over all the folks from the old sub anyway (frankly I think we're at that point already). Literally can't think of any other reason to keep the Chapo name. We need to change it IMO, the podcast genuinely isn't good.
It's just kinda meh. There are way better political podcasts out there that don't rely on forming parasocial relationships with the hosts to be more than tolerable.
i like all the hosts and i like the good episodes, but they really need to reign in the focus, it feels a lot like "whatever we feel like talking about this week through a dirtbag leftist lens" rather than a political podcast
I have personally messaged like five people on reddit who turned out to be /r/cth posters but had never heard of this place. And I'm not going out of my way to find people, that's just from the very minimal browsing I do these days. There's a lot of people who aren't online enough to have sought this place out.
I should have said "all the folks we're going to get", not the entire user base of the old sub. I say once we've gone past a year of the old sub getting shut down, I'm not worried about an old sub user finding this site just on the name.

Nothing wrong with that, I think it's hit and miss these days, the recent one on child tax credit/child benefits was informing and good I thought

instead of being focused they should boring and irrelevant as sht
Unless I'm missing something, this site is at like, 10% of the old sub

Honestly, we could probably make a bot to message users en mass if archive.org has some of the comment sections saved

Thanks, that makes a lot more sense
