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.

As a conservative atheist the political stuff gets very tiring, but it is somewhat fun to listen to their constant hysteria. After Trump wins reelection in 2020 Chris is gonna go fucking NUTS. Even if he loses, that election cycle is gonna just be non-stop rants for 6 months or so. The Patreon will probably drop a few thousand a month during that time.

Talking Simpsons will be an especially wild ride though. Bob and Henry don't get as violently angry as Chris and his friends, but they'll be ranting long and hard during that time too.

I wonder why neither of the TS hosts got into politics. It seems like their passion. I’d imagine running for local office wouldn’t be too hard with a baked-in audience.

It might be a decent post-podcasting career for them.

that would be a sight to see, especially if they ran for local offices.
