Per request from, and with the support of our Discord members, we chat about the ongoing Sweet Baby Inc Detected drama. The crew and some of our listeners spent a few weeks in the new Gamergate Discord and Caleb relays his experiences. We then read from a few articles, weigh in on Elon and LoTT's participation before asking: does this all have the juice to become a full-fledged Gamergate 2?
