Disappointed tbh

“I was looking forward to a fun and interesting podcast in English based in HK yet unfortunately found myself quite disappointed. I understand that as comedians they need to make jokes to make people laugh, but some of their statements are just plain ignorant. Not all people have lived lives where “420” clicks as something inappropriate automatically. I am over 30 years old, lived in over 10 countries and didn’t know about this terminology until I met my pothead (now) ex, 2 years ago. “Weed” was not something that immediately registered in my mind upon seeing 4/20, and I find it rude that they laugh about that being somehow ignorant and abnormal. It would’ve been funny if they had just mentioned that they were say “potheads” even if that were an overstatement, and then laughed about seeing 4/20 and how they thought it was hilarious.
Also the fact that one of the guys immediately thought of racist jokes, but only refrained from saying them out loud from “fear of being cancelled”, shows the lack of respect he has towards the people and the culture here (regardless of whatever ethnicity he’s from).
They're whole take on making fun of others (be it kids who have a desires to go to school for example) just feels very off putting and not a great influence overall. I think there are more benign ways of producing comedy.
I give them 2 stars for creating a podcast and hustling, but I find it hard to feel the desire to support them. Sorry.”Read full review »
