“Big Feeler here, since day one. Still going to support Neal’s comedy and career where I can because he’s genuinely funny, digs in when he has a good point, he’s fearless, and is very insightful. Usually with the race stuff I get a little bored because it’s nothing I haven’t heard before, but now and again I latch on to a perspective I hadn’t considered before and I think “alright, it was worth sticking it out here.” But, the beginning of the end for me were Neal’s cringeworthy Instagram videos about how to treat black people that were both condescending to white people and infantilizing to black people simultaneously. In today’s “Protifa” ep I couldn’t make it to minute 25 without turning it off and unsubscribing (if not forever, for a while.) The incessant generalizations against police and white people and leftist pandering without any honest discussion about how we got here, individual responsibilities, and what every class of American can do to fix this situation (I.e. a solution to the world we find ourselves in), leaves me yearning for intellectual honesty from this “relationship + race” podcast. Neal, Bianca - like you and want to keep liking you, but enough. Enough.”
