Now, I'm just a simple country podcaster...

[–] edge@hexbear.net 38 points 1 week ago (1 children)

lmao I doubt they'd out compete the CGP Grey podcast of the exact same name.

[–] Des@hexbear.net 15 points 1 week ago (2 children)

yeah i also could have swore there was already a Citation Needed podcast

who are we kidding it's "anti-woke" so it will probably have some absurd amount of subscribers but 95% of them are fake but the $ will still roll in regardless

It's dumbasses reading a Wikipedia article and pretending their experts on a topic, so like wtyp-gang sans rocz-yes

Yep there's a podcast, also Tom Scott has a youtube series with the same name IIRC.

imagine going through the trouble of earning advanced degrees in molecular biology just to have a podcast where you push up your glasses and say "erm objectively scientifically there's actually no such thing as trans people" for a living

Adam Johnson's been a legit posting OG since the early days of talking shit on Gawker. Man's a champ. No anti-woke crybaby podcast whipped up last week is gonna take that crown.

Why are you calling it “soy” as an insult? Adopting misogynistic right-winger pejoratives is not cool.

[–] MolotovHalfEmpty@hexbear.net 4 points 1 week ago

Fair. I've edited it. I meant it ironically in that it's a term that was leveraged by that kind of person for behaviour they now embrace, but you're right that even so it's best not to propogate it. Point taken.

Fuck I hate that Brad polumbo guy

[–] Frogmanfromlake@hexbear.net 12 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I can’t take that name seriously

[–] bbnh69420@hexbear.net 5 points 1 week ago

DW he's even less serious when he speaks. The gayest (I can say it mods) voice in history whining about how trans pedophiles are coming for your children

[–] abc@hexbear.net 15 points 1 week ago

Adam would you and Nima like to come on Hexbear to talk about the evil version of Citations Needed. No we are not a crypto-currency site why do you ask

[–] comrade_pibb@hexbear.net 13 points 1 week ago

truth and reason are when you start with your dogmatic premise and work backwards from there to reject the science

[–] Thallo@hexbear.net 9 points 1 week ago

Just be honest and say the podcast is about rooting out cultural bolshevism and """Frankfurt school""" shit.
