Some good info, but too much agreement

“There’s some important and well researched information in here, but the format of two guys who agree about everything doesn’t serve the subject well. I’m someone who thinks policing in the US needs to be re-thought and re-structured. But this podcast’s attitude is disorganized. Several times they seem to undermine some of their own positions without realizing it. For example, when Prop says that white people are less likely to be robbed, because thieves recognize that police care about white people— he is accurately diagnosing that police bias contributes to different levels of crime in neighborhoods with different races. But he’s also acknowledging that policing does work as a deterrent to crime.
Another example: when they’re talking about “public spirit” as a type of community policing, they both advocate for it in the auTonomous zone, and later acknowledge it’s not enough, and it made sense that policing has been centralized.
I guess their position is that policing has changed in fundamental ways since it’s beginnings, is still flawed, and it needs to continue to change fundamentally.
Three stars because Prop takes too long to say whatever he’s saying, and often it’s not substantial. They’re too eager to agree and they don’t ever ask each other questions, so the banter is actually frustrating to me.”

“Also because the podcast is propaganda it’s also not facts. All 1 Star comments aren’t racists or Karen’s. I just hold journalism to a higher standard than an opinion podcast.”

“This is an excellent historical quick-dive into the history of the institution of policing. Also as a former Abilenian I appreciated your jests and laughed. You’re not wrong!”
