Did it have to do with El Chapo Guzman from the Sinaloa Cartel in Mexico?

The name always kinda threw me off, honestly.

Kind of. It was a throwaway joke that ended up sticking, but it was supposed to sound like a trap mixtape

Fair enough. I prefer hexbear as a name and logo anyway.

It was a controversial change at the time, even though the community had long since evolved past being the podcast it was named after, but it's grown on me over time

All we want to be is El Chapo... at least all the power posters I know.
