Beyond The Blinds

This used to be a really fun podcast and I’m not sure if the hosts changed or if I did… lately they just seem so uneducated and way too conspiratorial and full of themselves. They also seem to believe that their personal algorithms are a reflection of the entire world. It’d become very myopic and I definitely feel like they rest on their laurels. Honestly the last straw was the 5 minute rant about how The Schwarzenegger children really need to just accept their father’s love child as their rightful sibling. Which is a hell of a hill to die on when you’ve never met any of the people involved. Skip this and go straight to Who? Weekly if you want real pop culture gossip

I used to really love this podcast, I felt the hosts were nuanced and experts in pop culture but more recently they have just started sounding like ever other chronically online person, which includes being contrarian and knocking popular things for clout and more talking points. I would say it’s genuine but every time they do this, it’s the same things everyone else on the internet are saying and about the same topics everyone is talking about. I just unsubscribed from Patreon, where I was a patron from the very beginning because I just found myself not even wanting to listen to them anymore. End of an era for me tbh.

Every time Troy calls a movie ugly I laugh so, so hard

Love you guys so much but why do you have AI ads? You talk about how evil AI is and how much you hate it but then have AI ads…
