Bill Scher lost the plot and the show is now unlistenable.

“This used to be a great show that I looked forward to listening to. As a centrist Democrat I enjoyed hearing both hosts debate in good faith argument, often finding more common ground than one would think. But since the party went hard left on social virtue signaling and intersectionality under Biden, and likely because Scher has invested so much of his personal identity in being a pious progressive parent, Scher has become a contrarian defender of left wing culture pedagogy who has sealed himself inside a willfully ignorant bubble. It’s become such a blind spot for Scher he now sounds woefully out of touch on far too many political issues touched by culture. As an example, in the latest episode Scher’s hopelessly misguided and bizarre takes on adolescent transgender and parental rights in education takes have him saying things like ‘Ron DeSantis is facing a potential loss in his bid for re-election as Florida governor.’ That’s…nuts. DeSantis is popular , as is his parental rights legislation which is supported by a majority of Florida Democrats. Last year Scher and Lewis had one episode where they discussed ‘trans’ related issues in which Lewis tried to talk him off the ledge only for Scher to become furious where he angrily shouted Lewis down. At the time it was kind of funny to see a host lose his cool, but that was pretty much the beginning of the end for this show. Bill used to be great at analysis, but now he’s just great at spinning the world around him into a shape that fits his own very emotional moral priors. It’s sad and unlistenable.”

“This was given a ‘clean’ rating, which is totally false considering the couch jokes. I thought Lewis was better than this, being a so called evangelical. They need to log off Twitter sometimes as the rest of the country isn’t into this nonsense.”
