i really appreciate the hosts’ and guests’ work to analyze and educate on a variety of subjects. i’ve learned a lot, and the hosts come across as clever, caring, and funny people with good intentions and a passion to share vital knowledge. thank you for that, genuinely.
there are some things i would change, but i do not hold ill will even with my critiques.
i feel like they’re a little out of touch with disabled people; i think they should speak about ableism more and keep our experiences in mind. on a related note it does trouble me that the conference they promoted earlier this year (?) had many people attend but no mask requirement; this is a safety hazard, especially to those with immune issues who come into contact with attendees.
i’d like to hear more discussion of palestine. i know, it’s focused on usa politics, but i also know that the usa is funding violence there. it upset me to hear no mention of the recent attacks in the humanitarian area, killing displaced civilians in cold blood, during this weekly round up. biden saying he would only withdraw support if a ground invasion took place certainly seemed noteworthy to me.
sometimes the pre interview talks gets a bit long- i think i would rather hear the notes on it at the end, actually, so i get the context behind it first.
since the additions to paid only content, there have been some really abrupt ends to episodes. i’m sometimes left a bit startled and disoriented. i’d like less jarring outros, please. 😅
still, i appreciate the work and hope the best for you. thank you.
