I want to love WTYP but Nova makes it increasingly hard when she talks geopolitics (www.youtube.com)

The "ah of course China Bad" stuff was tough last episode.

Then there's Liam repeating "I'm an anarchist" and when compared to everything else he says (which is getting quite authoritarian, tsk tsk!) it sounds like a mantra he's just repeating to convince himself. idk

Great episode otherwise imo. Enjoying Victoria's contributions. Devon remains GOATed. truly a land of contrasts.

I have always hated this stupid ass podcast. They are your gold standard of "podcast that claims to be about X/Y/Z but actually it will be 45 minutes of really awful riffing/jokes/loud laughter and 45 minutes of us basically reading the wikipedia article for the topic at hand". And sure, that's every podcast (which is why I don't listen to any regularly) but oh my god I just wanna hear about the bridge collapse that your episode is titled after I don't care about some tweet you saw why are you talking about tweets you're an engineering disaster podcast

Citations Needed citations-needed is one of the few unscripted podcasts I can stomach because the hosts know what the fuck they're talking about, articulate their thoughts clearly, and actually stick to the topic at hand. What a concept!

that's every podcast

There's some podcasts, generally ones with only one host, that have none of that. That's why I love The History of Rome, it's basically all content, and none of that fluff.
