Latest episode
The best magazine. Sometimes a great podcast. Really don’t need the Biden propaganda though, or to be told how things the most important election. Perhaps try spinning the fact that it’s the least consequential election of our time, with the two worst candidates we’ve ever had.
Judith Butler
Nailed it.
Hopelessly woke
If you want woke propaganda then this is the podcast for you! The fawning interview with Judith Butler in which she is never challenged or asked about the many inconsistencies in her book (which has been poorly reviewed generally) is a perfect example. WNYC and The New Yorker have fallen to woke ideologies - really a shame.
