I thought this article was interesting, in that I am immediately suspicious of the motives of some of people quoted. The conclusion runs counter to what I want to be true, and I'm curious what other people make of it.

Also men: Do you actually feel attacked? I'm not sure I've ever seen someone criticised for like being strong and capable, or a good carpenter, or a protective dad or whatever. Is this a real thing? or just something that is used as cover like the traditional values vs violent misogyny terminology.

P.S. Thinking there are hordes of ravenous cancellers waiting in the wings is extremely funny to me. Not exactly beating the allegations that listening to Jo Rogan damages your perception of reality.

I am curious if you have any episodes you would recommend? I have seen the worst. I wonder what the good ones are and would be interested to better understand the appeal.

I tend to go for very dry and academic podcasts. We're not so different, maintenance phase, when diplomacy fails, Australia in the world, tech wont save us etc.

    The 2016 election night episode entitled something like "The End of the World" was great and IMO signals the shift in the show. He's at the Comedy Store or The Icehouse (LA comedy clubs) and there are a dozen comics on stage commenting as other comics drop in and out.
