Ableist podcast, unsubscribed
I liked this podcast until the Covid episode, when I learned that this podcast is ableist. In an over 40 minute long conversation with the author of a whole book about the pandemic, they discuss how trivial Covid is for people who are “healthy and white” and how silly it was for us to go into lockdowns. Not ONCE did they EVEN MENTION Long Covid, which is what most Covid cautious people (whom they call “germophobes”) are actually worried about. They focus almost entirely on death metrics, literally laughing away the risks to children and anyone who don’t have “preexisting conditions” that has a fear of Covid. They don’t contend with how to protect those that do have those conditions and want to be a part of society, nor do they acknowledge at all that there are other consequences to Covid beyond death that are absolutely worth avoiding. The creators of this show have absolutely showed their hand as ableists, and I will no longer be listening.

Podcast used to be good but now interviewing cronies and people who are famous but have little expertise. New cohost is terrible too.

Luigi is brilliant at discussing these important concepts in a relatable and interesting way. Cannot wait for this podcast!

This was an outstanding discussion on a subject matter that does not get discussed enough. Especially when it comes to a more detailed discussion about the long term implications.
