  • You know that it’s a pop history podcast with a focus on funny takes, right? Like, when he “criticizes” some horrible dictator for not getting a higher body count, that’s a joke. Many of his guests are comedians, so if (say) Billy Wayne Davis, or (say) Gareth Reynolds said something like what you refer to, and Evans said “right” and they both laughed, it’s because they’re enjoying a joke.

    You should probably know that Blue Apron doesn’t have a child hunting island in Indonesia, and Robert Evans doesn’t actually want to nuke the Great Lakes as revenge for the Edmund Fitzgerald.



  • I’m old enough to remember Biden passing a racist crime bill, and using such bloodthirsty rhetoric about Palestinians that the Israeli prime minister told him to calm down, which put him to the right of Ronald fucking Reagan on the issue of Palestine. Being not as bad as Trump in some ways doesn’t make him good. He’s just bad in a different way.

    Also remember that even if you think he was fine and Kamala should have won, it was Biden’s hubris and refusal to step down from his reelection campaign that arguably made a Harris win impossible.
