“At its best, BAR pod is a funny, irrelevant, and nuanced. It approaches hot topics with rational skepticism, curiosity, and a willingness to go where others will not. Jessie and Katie catalog pathological institutions and ideologies. Some of my favorites include the American Bully XL, Keffles Saga, Jacob Lake reporting, Facilitating Communication, and Jessie’s rigorous reporting on transgender care.
I sometimes think this podcast focuses on the “twitter dumbs” to the exclusion of stories of true institutional capture or areas where these pathologies effect the broader society. I would suggest you expand the number of topics you apply this formula to: what are the possibility regressive effects of ban the box inituitives? What do we actually know about diversity trainings and their effects? What is the actual science of supporting/refuting fat activism / polyamory etc.”
