Earnestness Check-In: Politics Edition
Added 2024-11-18 13:00:11 +0000 UTCFinally we're safe in our paywalled bubble and we can freely speak on how to save the United States government. It literally isn't even that hard. Plus we talk the Martha Stewart doc, Joker 2, and holiday plans with a casualness that screams "we recorded this on a Sunday."

COVID put us in a fearful mode. Is that why no protests yet? I think there will be increasing protests in a broad coalition, expressing delayed rage from many corners. Call me hopeful.

2024-11-21 18:08:25 +0000 UTCIt actually helps to hear povs from queer people around the world / in the US - especially in these crazy times! Lots of love from Berlin, Germany

2024-11-21 01:21:15 +0000 UTCthis episode has everything! normal gay guy political discussion that reflects what a lot of people are feeling, classic New York/ LA pro/con (shout out to Sam’s how long gone obsession), some casual logistics, and a tease of a pop up?! Color me delighted.

2024-11-20 21:22:19 +0000 UTCI really appreciate George’s confident pronunciation of “tronno”

2024-11-19 18:17:15 +0000 UTCGeorge you have no idea how comforting it is to me that there’s another Radical Leftist out there with an obsessive and masochistic relationship to ezra klein

2024-11-19 01:19:57 +0000 UTCDid Sam’s audio sound sped up at random points to anyone else? 😂

2024-11-18 22:26:39 +0000 UTCI think cowboy Sam could heal the nation.

2024-11-18 21:35:25 +0000 UTCi love your guys’ normal citizen political thoughts. bc “conservative v. regressive” and “hey hey hey slow down” are so valid 😭

2024-11-18 21:31:45 +0000 UTC…. I set up my Christmas decor on November 7th, have I become a crazy Christmas person? but in my defense the seasonal depression was kinda kicking my ass and the silly little twinkle lights and snowmen trick my brain into being happy
Eduardo
2024-11-18 21:15:32 +0000 UTCIt’s no Jonathan Groff, but I will be at your 11/25 show at Joe’s Pub, George!!!

2024-11-18 18:23:21 +0000 UTCSaying "I only have one life, I have to do it" about getting into PJ Harvey feels so straightio lab
Jenny
2024-11-18 17:54:41 +0000 UTCI am also weakly immuned George and my friend recommended turkey tail mushroom supplement and guess what haven’t gotten sick since I started taking it. Placebo works.

2024-11-18 17:12:22 +0000 UTCPJ Harvey is the last person on earth who would ever have a Patreon (no offense love this one to death obvs). Also Courtney Love was/is a huge PJ fan and called her songs “angry vagina music” (positive) in the 90s. Welcome to the world of PJH George it’s heaven here!!!
Gina
2024-11-18 17:10:02 +0000 UTC+1 to this!
ChuckieP
2024-11-18 16:21:45 +0000 UTCYeah, don't shy away from your witty takes! "woah woah woah, brother" cuts deep and also portrays the left outside of the US
Firmino
2024-11-18 16:15:31 +0000 UTCPop up is essential! Every live podcast I attend I think or say “I wish I could be at an event with all these people who share my interests and sense of humor where I could meet them”

2024-11-18 16:05:49 +0000 UTCI think the person who got in trouble for the Patreon / crowd funding thing was Amanda Palmer from Dresden dolls
Natasha Thweatt
2024-11-18 16:04:17 +0000 UTCActually George and Sam YOU are the voices I needed to hear. The point George made about the shock of 2016 invigorating activism, and the lack of shock in 2024 and the accompanying malaise is spot on. Love you glamour girls.
