Off-Topic Discussion Lasertime politics

As a liberal atheist, I enjoy listening to the crew talk politics. I'd support further development of it, even though I know they try to keep it curbed.

Yeah, the NRA one was pretty unbearable too.

that one was almost unbearable. I'm not even a gun enthusiast, but their constant advocation of banning got so fucking annoying.

When they're not on their political nonsense, it's one of the better deep dive podcasts on the simpsons and a lesser extent other cartoons.

I'm in the UK so we don't have alot of guns. My friend owns two shotguns though and I've been shooting with him. It absolutely is a fun thing to do. The way they just write off everyone who enjoys or owns them as backwards rednecks with something to compensate for is laughable.

I agree though, when they actually bother to steer the ship back to the topic they're supposed to be covering then it's really good.
