In the sense that grandiose people keep getting admitted into my psych unit and that is job security.

You should have seen it when the QAnon guy was admitted. Shit was hilarious. He was fighting with his wife loudly on the phone over Pizzagate. Dude had ruined his whole life over Q.

I swear QAnon is my bread and butter. Fuck, I bet alt-right psychosis paid for my pool. Yes, people like you sign my pay checks, because people like you have Medicaid and as a master at medical utilization review I've taken my fair share of medicaid dollars. A lot of people like you in ICU right now experiencing that rotoprone bedding lol.

This is me just talking shit. If you are hiring and paying social workers that is pretty cool.


I swear every time I read your name I think your posts are going to be in German.

Haha. I try to be fair and balanced. The worst possible outcome is an echo chamber. Had 101,014 minutes listened in Spotify last year. Almost exclusively listening to political pundits. You got any suggestions?

Vlogbrothers - they dont always do politics but they're probably my favourite for unbiased takes on otherwise politically charged topics

I'll look into Vlogbrothers. My podcast list is fairly long.
Louder with Crowder
Tim Pool Daily
Timcast IRL
The Jimmy Dore Show
Glenn Beck
Breaking Points with Crystal and Saagar
"YOUR WELCOME" with Michael Malice
JRE
Stu Does America (Lots of Blaze network stuff I know)
Lex Fridman

Numerous non-political podcasts like
The Bonfire
Jordan Peterson
Timesuck with Dan Cummings (This one is great if you want a super indepth look into various topics)
Your Mom's House
Bertcast
and on and on...
Seems fairly balanced to me. But I don't think I'm hearing a "far left" type view outside of maybe Jimmy Dore.

Edit: Wow vlogbrothers are great. That video you posted is exactly the kind of content I like. They do an actual podcast I can listen to on Spotify?

That's MASSIVELY to the right lol.

Jimmy Dore has been carrying water for far-right weirdos for a while now. Including spreading anti-vax propaganda.

Overall I'd say your diet leans heavily to the right with only the slighest bit of left for flavor.

I've never really seen anyone address this question with honesty. Maybe I should give it a listen.

That is why I said what I said earlier...and have you listened to Michael Malice at all? And why do you say that about Jimmy? Because he shits on "do nothing democrats" that do exactly what the Republicans do instead of opposing them for real?

Edit: how is that massively to the right? I don't understand. 3 of them are right. The others are left or center-left.

One thing i would add is that when presented with any information on a political topic its worthwhile to look it up yourself to make sure the facts are not being misrepresented

For example meletonia mentioned hundreds of thousands of people out of millions being compensated over heart attacks from the vaccines in australia. A claim if true would be pretty damning.

A quick google search indicates the more severe conditions are infact incredibly rare and the vast majority of these (lets say 1 in 10 to keep the numbers simple) vaccinated people experiencing side effects are being compensated for loss of pay from sore arms, fevers or chills which is an expected side from the vaccine making the overall story a nothing burger.

This is a chance I love. I get to shill Shaun. He posts exhaustively researched videos on really interesting topics.




Louder with Crowder - strongly right
Tim Pool Daily - strongly right, but uses his origins as an occupy reporter to claim he's left
Timcast IRL - see above
The Jimmy Dore Show - nominally left but with a very strong right-wing streak as he takes the Rubin route for the money
Glenn Beck - strongly right
Breaking Points with Crystal and Saagar - solidly left
"YOUR WELCOME" with Michael Malice - Dunno.
JRE - center to center-right.
Stu Does America (Lots of Blaze network stuff I know) - Never seen, but Blaze is strongly right
Lex Fridman - Never seen

I'll be real here, I kind of rely on these podcasts and their reporting of things when it comes to info. My free time is used up with caring for my flock, the step kids, and various chores after I'm home from work in the metal shop. Now that I'm spending time on JSP I don't really Google this info unless I'm disputed by you guys posting here. I should probably look until things before I use it in my arguments. I guess that'll be part of my "bettering myself" for this year's resolution.
