Was it ever worthwhile at all? I remember listening to a few episodes early on but it felt empty, just parasocial shit pretending it's some theory-heavy deep talk.

That said, I never really liked Yugopnik or Second Thought - first felt a bit try-hard (and I was over the dirtbag style when I found him), the other, ironically, too "clean", kind of making himself algortithm friendly in my opinion. Hakim was alright though.

Or maybe I'm just not really into this particular kind of slop.

I like them all individually but they're just not great at podcasting. It meanders too much and too much of it is "banter" that I don't care about when I read the episode title. It made me appreciate Will Menaker as a host a lot more, he does a great job keeping the Chapo episodes on track while also being funny himself.
