Yeah, I gave up on that thing a long time ago. This is... unsurprising.

I also seem to remember him naming a kidnapping/rape victim whose identity had been concealed due to rape shield laws.

For those who listened to In The Dark season 2: Curtis Flowers' case was heard by the Supreme Court today re: racial bias in jury selection. Early reports are...promising! Fucking Kavanaugh apparently asked many questions and made statements that seemed to indicate sympathy for the defense. And Thomas asked a question from the bench, which hasn't happened in 3 years.

One of the podcasts I listen to had an ad on it for a live show. Sure, whatever, I've heard of podcasts touring. But this one was particularly annoying because it was for a one-off live show, meaning the only way you'll see it is if you happen to be in LA. Or maybe have the money to just travel to LA for a weekend. Or weeknight, I didn't check. Either way it's fucked.

Possibly a post for the irrational hatred thread because this is some white-people-problems to be sure.

That is definitely a strange thing to get mad about

I’m confused...why would you be annoyed that a podcast would promote their own live show on their own podcast?

See, we agree on that.

See, it wasn't even their show.

I think I figured it out - somewhat - in that it's a little bit of FOMO and a little bit of irrational thoughts on my part. The second part happens from time to time, that's what the drugs are for, it's just that sometimes it's a little out of hand.

Anyone have good recommendations regarding music discussions podcasts? I feel like I've got a better handle on seeking out one-on-one interviews w/ musicians and artists, but something along the lines of Celebration Rock (which I enjoy, but I'm not necessarily seeking out something super genre-specific). I've checked out some of those podcasts that take an album an episode and dig into it, but haven't found any that I've thought were good thus far.

Give Sound Opinions a shot.

Cool playlist is pretty good. Not sure if it's still being made, but there are around 30 episodes available.

David W Collins works on Star Wars and has a brilliant pod called the soundtrack show.
It’s well worth your time season one is packed full of insightful illuminating pods on all kinds of films soundtracks.
He’s back with a new season. He’s a fascinating listen.

Empire strikes back. Part one.

I'm definitely game, though probably am looking for something that doesn't stick to one artist.

Thanks for the suggestion! I've listened to one or two episodes, and I'm feeling like maybe I just listened to the wrong episodes, as the discussions in the eps seemed a little surface-level. Almost a bit like they were giving a Wikipedia quick hit version of the topic they were focusing on. Again, I may just not have found the right ep, and will give it another try, cause on paper, it's pretty much exactly what I'm looking for.

I just found out S. Craig Zahler wrote a horror “audiostate” called The Narrow Caves that’s available as a podcast. Can’t wait to listen to it.

I listened to an podcast with him, such a cool dude so fucking interested in his craft. Really blown away with his works ethics.

Finally finished Wolverine: The Long Night. It was OK. All interest I had in the series was, like a lot of scripted anything lately, burned out in the last episodes. It had so many stories that the one that was important was boring in comparison. Probably didn't help they had a boring af Wolverine who was barely in the show. They should have called it Boring Police Procedural: Maybe He's a Mutant? instead.

It was so boring that I didn't even care when the 'spoiler' of the show was revealed. Well, either spoiler since there's technically two of them. I'll probably listen to S2 because it's going to have Gambit but it's not a must-listen atm.

I miss CelebRock too. Here's a few that scratch a different itch.

Broken Record with Malcolm Gladwell
My Favourite Album with Jeremy Dylan
Disgraceland

and there's the song by song alphabetical pods for Springsteen, Beatles, Arcade Fire etc. Couple of Dylan ones too.
