Just tons of liberal types being mad at them for their takes on Ukraine, this is probably the most people have cared about the show in ages

    I think the pod would be better with out Liam

    Liam's a cantankerous fuck, but nine times out of ten he's fine. And he handles a bunch of the social media bullshit for Roz, which is half the reason he's a host to begin with.

    Past that, the worst take I've seen from the lot has been Alice. Its basically just - you can't blame people for wanting to repel a foreign invasion. Putin's breathed as much life into EU fascism as any American State Department official with this invasion. But past that, both the WTYP and TrashFuture gangs basically agree with the Chapos that this is - first and foremost - an unforced humanitarian disaster on a continental scale and it needs to end asap.

    If that's enough to get you cancelled...

      Honestly I think I'm just grumpy from work I still listen to the pod cast Liam is fine, the one major plus of this pod cast is that they all seem to have fun and most other leftist pod casts I listen too always just sounds so demoralizlsm and like they don't get to have brief moments of fun. I really like listening to people making jokes as it makes being alone at work more tolerable.

      on a recent bonus ep alice landed on the take that "yes ukraine is full of nazis, yes the sheer volume of weapons is going to have horrendous consequences for the ukrainian people, no we shouldnt stop sending weapons"
