Yeah, I feel like this is the most disappointing podcast of the year. It is mostly an investigation of whether this is the kind of thing the CIA might do. Which is not same as investigating whether it was a thing they did do. 

Floodlines was definitely a good listen. I also recommend Boomtown, which had the interesting fortune of talking about the possibility of a looming oil crisis right ahead of COVID. The Uncertain Hour also spun up a surprise COVID season that hit on things like essential workers, unemployment and why not having sick…

If I might make an attempt at nuance here, the idea that many psychiatrists are too quick to throw pills at something and call it a day is both true and a big problem. I speak from personal experience - I struggled for years futilely against clinical depression with a series of RXs that never much helped until I…

I cannot stand Biden. He was probably the worst choice out of all of the candidates. But jesus fuck, this isn’t even an election. It’s a hostage crisis.

“But despite having wrenched the Jeep into a dead-reliable machine”

Just wait. Minority populations are suffering more, as they usually do due to health care inequities, but they will find a way!

And that’s where you’re wrong.

...I know the Jeep still had plenty of life in it...

The Lt. Governor of TX has argued multiple times that we need to just let the virus spread and get used to people dying to lessen the effect on the economy (read: so the state doesn’t have to pay unemployment, and so wealthy business owners and investors and churches can continue to make money). The state has also…

He tells me nobody got hurt in the incident that sent the Jeep into the salvage yard.

So what happened to it???

For only $499 that jeep can be yours to wrench and to hold. For fixed and for broken

For a guy that’s covered in tattoos, its amazing how much this movie gets wrong about tattooing and tattoo culture. Nobody who has ever gotten a single tattoo would ever think a tattoo shop/restaurant is a good idea.

Adopt stupid policies, win stupid prizes, Governor. And the worst part is, everything about this was predictable. We knew from China and Korea how the disease was spread, and how you beat that disease. We knew from China and Korea that by the time you knew that there was an outbreak in your city, that you already had…

I very, very rarely quit a movie once I’ve started, honestly, but after an hour and knowing there was still another hour and a quarter to come, I bailed.

Please can they just stop trying to make Pete Davidson happen? Please? 

I am not as negative on Pete Davidson as some are on this site...but after the fifth consecutive scene where he acts like an eight year-old in this movie I just realized I wouldn’t be watching this movie if it were about a snotty eight year-old and turned it off.  Also, didn’t the Duplass brothers already make this…

Yeah, I almost did, but this is a survey of the first 90 days and how happy they are with the purchase. I imagine Dodge owners are pretty happy about it while Land Rover owners are already in the shop for something in the first 90 days.

The Nissan owners were too busy napping in those boring ass old cars to notice any problems.

To be fair to dodge how many problems can their 2 cars have after 13+ years in production?  I figure those should be worked out by now
