I've never seriously listened to a podcast in the same way but I think I'm gonna try this with Pluribus.

It's of course very well made. It feels like the cast knew each other beforehand and despite being just thrown into a busy day for the first episode their interactions are really convincing and engaging. Noah Wylde is just born for that role. It's impressive that they've managed to make such a fresh take on a horse beaten genre.
My absolute favorite show at the moment is Pluribus. I doesn't get any better than slow paced Vince Gilligan i my book. Rhea Seehorn is absolutely magnificent carrying the show almost by herself and the story is intriguing and original. I love the weird confusing almost positive take on a dystopian future combined with a great score and long (and sometimes insignificant feeling) scenes. It really stands out for me and tinkles my curiosity with a hint of well placed anxiety. I can certainly see why some people think it's too slow and uneventful but not me. It's so wonderfully different from most other shows.

Comment on Gianni Infantino seems to be doing everything to be considered the worst FIFA president of all time in ~sports.football
elcuello Link ParentJust the fact that this piece of shit has managed to be even more of an asshole than Blatter in record time is baffling and quite saddening. I’m re-watching a lot of 80’s and 90s action movies...Just the fact that this piece of shit has managed to be even more of an asshole than Blatter in record time is baffling and quite saddening.
I’m re-watching a lot of 80’s and 90s action movies right now because of nostalgia and general comfort watching and these cartoonishly over the top villains are seriously reality now. I can’t believe it.

She’s also not afraid to tackle weird performances and alternative styles and with respect. I’ve never seen this one.
My favorits are Disturbed - Sound of Silence and James Blunt - Monsters (this one gets me every damn time and I feel her through the song) -

elcuello Link ParentI’ve noticed an uptick in these kind of videos on “normal” porn sites for a while now so I think it’s safe to say it does.But am also wondering if this is happening in every country, and only South Korea police are bothering to investigate

Again I’m not sure this law is the right way to go and I think this case has been framed in the media to be more about abuse to fit into a click baity narrative instead of the actual sentence. BUT at the same time I think it’s important to bring this behaviour forward so we can discuss the very reel personal consequences this have on people in this line of work.

I just couldn’t get into the premise of no patos what so ever. It was like alternative jazz music to me. I know a lot of people really appreciate this and I want to like it…but just don’t. To no surprise I was the only one not loving it.
It's really kinda sad reading all the comments on that video. Yeah sure if you really wanted to you could interpret it that way but it says a lot about how people sexualize everything today - to me it was just akward and bad acting like any other commercial.
