“I have been a subscriber for several months now and have listened to all episodes. I may have disagreed with some of the hosts’ opinions on gaming, but generally I found their advice to be both helpful and insightful.
I have mostly overlooked their forays into political opinion, as I don’t think it really has a place in this type of podcast. Although I am willing to admit issues of inclusivity and cultural sensitivity DO need to be addressed in our hobby, I felt their tirades wandered into territory best left to other venues. Still, I continued listening.
However, insulting a recently deceased war veteran has done it for me. Senator McCain, like him or not, seemed an honorable man that deserved respect.
I didn’t care for the 2008 campaign jab at D&D players either, but I didn’t let it tarnish his entire being. John McCain didn’t get my vote then, but it was for many other reasons than a minor insult to RPGers. I still respected his service in both the military and the Senate. The hosts were jerks about the mans death, and they had no need to be.
I’m sure neither of them really care what I think, but hopefully there are others who feel the same as I do. Guess I will ‘go kick rocks’.
Coming from a Left leaning Moderate in the South, I think these two give Liberals a bad name. Just stick to gaming advice, guys.”
