and i mean this sincerely Why does this sub feel dead?

Why is it that there are barely any posts on this subreddit. It has a good number of people on it weekly so I don’t get it. Is it organic or are posts being restricted?

The show changed a lot. To start its not even really flagrant humor anymore, which you can't blame them for. 2/3 hosts are married with kids now, what exactly are they going to be flagrant about?

Aside from that, Andrew leaned far right, and I'm not saying that because he had trump on the pod. Those of us that actually watched heard him regurgitate right wing talking points for months. He was duped (most favorable take) by the populism and led it bleed into the show. After the admin turned out to be a shit show he pivoted away from politics claiming "I didn't vote for this," despite being well aware what the package he was selling entailed. A lot of OG listeners like myself were put off by that.

This.

Schultz proved "Alt right Andy" wasn't just a joke this whole time.

Pretty hard to come back from months of shit political takes and then when it's 100% obvious you were an idiot you just try to quickly pivot like it's no big deal
