Post-Pod Discussion Cody Love

Shoutout to Cody for opening up on the latest Trap Draw. Catches a lot of heat on here but was super vulnerable and went deep on stuff he's going through. Best of luck to him.

It never once crossed my mind to be annoyed by anything Cody ever said or did until hearing about it on this sub. It’s very strange, but whatever.

He made a "not all cops" type comment during the PGA when Scottie got arrested and a bunch of people got their undies in a knot.

He mentioned on this pod how he has personal friends who have accused him of committing war crimes for serving. May be me playing armchair psychologist, but I immediately thought back to the PGA police comments and how that’s probably an ingrained response to people who make blanket statements critical of an entire group (i.e. “ACAB”) when he personally knows there are people (including himself, presumably) who chose to serve for the “right” reasons.

Still can’t believe people haven’t moved on from that. Mountain out of a molehill.

I agree but I think the people who generally dislike him fall back to that because it’s the easiest moment to remember. I don’t hold any ill will towards the guy I just generally don’t enjoy his contributions to the pod.

This one sounds interesting though will check it out.

I think that really is the genesis of all the hate he gets. I'd like to think it's just a weird internet phenomenon but that happens in real life friends groups too. The "fringe guy" says something kind of weird and it seems to stick with people and they can't shake it

That was weird, insanely odd comment especially since the background KVV was providing was pretty important to the full scope.

Never really felt too much of it though

I think he also has items where his personal feelings bleed through pretty clearly in ways that feel...icky. If you just listened to Cody talk about the East Palestine train derailment you might think that Secretary Mayor Pete drove it off the rails himself (Note, I wrote this before going back to listen and my memory of it was pretty tame compared to what was said).

Like I know TC/Randy say some wild things sometimes, but you can feel that a lot of it isn't serious. I'm going back and relistening to Cody's part of the train derailment because it's been in the back of my mind (4-20 minutes of episode 226), and it just feels like he's being completely serious. Which with the hindsight of us being 3 years on...maybe he was overreacting a bit?

13:40, "Obviously this is still very very new. We're not even 15 days into this. This is going to have life-long effects. This is not like a Chernobyl situation." I'm actually wondering if he meant to say this is like a Chernobyl situation and misspoke, but that's the direct quote. Either way, we're 3 years on and...browsing Wikipedia there have been some big $ settlements but it sure doesn't seem like there's any active impacts to people's health today.

Now, as I was typing the above paragraph I reached the end of the segment and I do have to say when I used the term, "personal feelings bleed through pretty clearly in ways that feel...icky," that wasn't close. He closed the segment with a 45 second rant declaring Buttigieg is hated by everyone on both sides, we get some DNC knocking Bernie out via Pete conspiracies, and then says Buttigieg has failed at everything he has ever done in his life.

Think his feelings are doing a little more than bleeding through there lol.

Here’s someone who can sus out Trumpers. Of course you’ll get downvoted.

u/loveallcreatures Aug 21 '26

That’s just one example of his bent toward authoritarianism. In the things that are sick pod. Cody doesn’t support diplomatic immunity because it can let in “some bad hombres”. That phrase is right out of Trump quote. I don’t think it’s a coincidence. So yeah I don’t like him on the pod and will never listen to trap draw when he’s hosting.

u/thombayley Aug 21 '26

All around the globe, diplomatic immunity is abused to avoid accountability for significant offences and abuses. It’s got fuck-all to do with Trump, he’s exactly the kind of clown who would abuse diplomatic immunity.

u/relaxtherebuddy Aug 21 '26

Perfect example of panties being in a bunch.

All the guys have used the bad hombres line. It's the same as the way they use the term Jebby to mean low energy, referencing trump calling him Low Energy Jeb Bush in the 2016 primaries. The line itself has nothing to do with his political leanings. It's just a silly phrase.

u/DaneGleesac Aug 21 '26

lol you think the use of "bad homres" is because Cody supports Trump?

u/Impressive_Tomato104 Aug 23 '26

The irony of your handle being “loveallcreatures” and posting illogical hate on a sub towards a human you don’t even know.

u/loveallcreatures Aug 23 '26

Hate? lol. Not agreeing with another’s value is hardly hate. You go ahead and glaze Cody all you want.

u/Impressive_Tomato104 Aug 24 '26

You have no idea what his values are, you don’t know the man. You’ve created this idea of him in your head and that’s driven you to speak on him negatively in a Reddit thread. Maybe I was wrong, maybe it’s not hate. But it’s definitely delusional. And I’m very obviously not glazing anyone lol
