Complimentary cupcakes and fruit punch are available on the obligatory plastic folding table at the back of the community center basketball court we rented out.

I think besides what was already said, one of the main reasons given at the time is we had trouble working with outside entities by being named after El Chapo.

I really struggle to imagine it being that driven by breaking with the podcast on strictly ideological grounds when we have plenty of fuckers here who are way more reactionary than Chapo is. More likely that side of it is based on people disliking or not caring about the podcast (both of which are fair enough) and therefore it being used as an identifier no longer made sense.

I legit keep forgetting that Chapo was originally a cartel kingpin & the podcasters are just borrowing his name
