The podcast is pretty good RN. The jokes and punchlines are good. The hosts, Amber aside, are properly drugged and fired up.

Yet it feels passé. It feels outdated. The whole podcast rode on the imagination of liberal collapse and a socdem ticket with Bernie. But Bernie lost like a bitch and the libs have coalesced incredibly. The podcast feels like it’s coasting now without the photosynthesis of the Bernie promise propelling their focus.

    The show was repurposed to be the Bernie train in 2017 and they rode that shit hard specially the last ten months. Now that Bernie has lost they have yet to find a new purpose. Trump winning gave them legitimacy, Matt’s wrong. Bernie losing made them lose that legitimacy.

      Eh it’s just a strange time right now. Nothing to say about the election or the pandemic that hasn’t been said. The election night stream should be good and the stuff on Hunter for example is probably a preview of what the show might be like during a Biden admin. Which, will be fucking really funny. From the libs trying to pretend everything is normal again, to the conservatives going all tea party 2.0 to Biden himself they will find their voice again.
