“The episode about Stanley cups included ableist language that is extremely hurtful to the disability community. When talking about being able to easily drink from the cup they said ‘it’s giving vegetable’, ‘invalid aesthetic’ and ‘invalid chic’. and Not only were the comments absolutely awful and hurtful, they deleted all of the instagram comments addressing this issue. I also tried to direct message the podcast to alert them of the issue, to which they never responded. Why hide the issue instead of simply apologizing and trying to do better going forward? I’ve loved this podcast for years and it was a quick unfollow for me when I saw they weren’t willing to issue an apology.”
