The Hatred of Podcasting | Brace Belden

In 2015, if you said, “I heard it on a podcast,” you were trying to sound smart. In 2025, it’s better to lie.

    They say to me: “You do that podcast!” And I say: “Yes, I do! Thank you so much for listening!” Then they say: “I thought you were five foot three!” And I have to explain to them that I lie about my height on the podcast so listeners resent me less for making a lot of money just for talking into a microphone twice a week. saul-your-honor

    Oh my lord Brace is five foot four … he lied to us!

    (New media wasn’t done with Obama, however; in 2023, Tucker Carlson interviewed a man on his podcast who claimed to have sucked Obama’s dick in Gurnee, Illinois.)

    uhhhhhhhhhh let me be clear, i’m gonna bust

    Then Covid hit and podcasts went through the roof, and now I have the salary of a dermatologist and live in Brooklyn, which is Israel for podcasters.

    funny weird little article

    After Marc Maron ending his podcast, I just listen to 2. Behind the Bastards and Last Pod on the Left. I can’t stomach any other podcasts.

      is Behind the Bastards the one with two hosts doing nauseating levels of “banter” and then they pause for ten minutes to advertise dick pills harry’s manscaping or whatever

      there was an ayeye generated podcast a year ago about poopoopeepee and it sounded exactly like that

        Yeah, whatever my disagreements with Margaret, her podcast is usually pretty cool, and I really like her fiction writing as well. I go back to We Won’t Be Here Tomorrow all the time

      I listen to way too many, but I’ll pause one for months at a time or longer when I start to get tired of it.

    What an articulate and educated young man. I wonder if there is anywhere I can hear more of his thoughts on things? Preferably in some sort of digitally distributed, serialised audio format.

    It’s funny how that one turingpolice tweet abt tankie conspiracy theorists always being right is getting mad at the idea of a guy who figured out the YPG’s bad as late as 2017

    How time flies. You see the first part quoted more than the 2nd for some reason
