it’s interesting and valid for non policy dimensions to matter, just funny when even ppl who are purportedly all about policy (Klein, a prof in a policy school) put effectively zero weight on it.

I love the Red Scare podcast and the ladies who make it. My primary motivation to go to NYC next time is finally being on this show. It's hilarious, insightful, independent-minded, and scornful of those who deserve it https://t.co/mOjrMMGYcg— Glenn Greenwald (@ggreenwald) April 28, 2019

Downloaded a couple of eps of producer Chris's music podcast (And Introducing), it's pretty good (ie more listenable than Chapo has been lately). I'm halfway through the one about Meet Me In The Bathroom, it's ridiculously long (2.5 hours) and it's endearing to see someone's take on it a few years younger than me/the average ILXor. They still think all the people involved in the early '00s rock scene were kind of cool, it's adorable.
― Greta Van Show Feets BB (milo z), Tuesday, 11 June 2019 07:54 (four years ago) link
I was going to ask who from the show picked The Fall to end the latest episode, but figured it was Chris.

i feel like everyone involved in chapo has a tragic taste in music
― findom haddie (jim in vancouver), Tuesday, 11 June 2019 15:50 (four years ago) link
they used to pick pretty good music to end the episodes until they presumably got too big and didn't want to draw attention. distinctly remember an ep ending with "who makes the nazis".
― oiocha, Tuesday, 11 June 2019 18:07 (four years ago) link
xp to milo
is there a good representative episode of that podcast (And Introducing) that's a good start?
the one about the book, which I've read and have spent all my own commentary on, is simultaneously intriguing because they're younger and making me holler about how they seem to have missed a bunch of experiences of seeing shows in houses, 90s music scenes, whatever
― mh, Tuesday, 11 June 2019 23:05 (four years ago) link
And Introducing is fantastic! My introduction was the one Felix guested on about Kanye's tweets. I thought that one was pretty fun, but it's kind of atypical for the show. I honestly think the show's first episode is still one of the best.
― OneSecondBefore, Wednesday, 12 June 2019 01:05 (four years ago) link
The one about The Hacienda is pretty good too.
― OneSecondBefore, Wednesday, 12 June 2019 01:06 (four years ago) link
I've only listened to that one and part of the Felix Soundcloud rap episode - I think the book one is pretty representative, non-cynical 30-year olds' takes on music

the greatest Chapo running gag is that their producers/engineers have much better radio voices than anyone actually on the show

Checking this out for the first time. Liked the Alan Moore episode basically because it was Alan Moore and always interesting to hear him talk. Had to turn off the live in Berlin episode as I cannot think of anything I'd rather listen to less than American punk types making shit jokes about dance music. Is it worth checking out other episodes or are they always like this?
