Good show

Interesting content but Candace come across as very scripted and disingenuous, get her off the show

JessieGardner1 ,

Ignorant irony

Lamentable arguments, poorly expressed. Ignorant hypocrisy delivered in a mocking tone…
Clearly the podcast hosts like to think of themselves as provocateurs of new age thinking and as “free speech absolutists”. Instead, they make a mockery of informed debate. They all share the same point of view. No counterpoint nor balanced argument. Problematic expressions of ignorance towards the context of Israel’s (latest) besiegement of Gaza following Oct 7th and when discussing the peace marches. Despicable lack of understanding/acknowledgment of the oppressive context of apartheid (spanning over 100 years) there. Unfortunately not alone, but classic echo chamber podcast. To repeat his own words, naive and useful idiots. But not at all useful imo.

Generally quite good

I like the podcast and like the characters, but sometimes feel it could go a bit deeper into thinking about why whatever news item has occurred, rather than just saying why they think it’s good or bad. So close sometimes. Also, people disagreeing with you online is not inconsistent with free speech.
