This Dinosaur Hour episode is making me realize how Annie Hall is sorta woke when you think about it, with Woody taking a loud stand for all the kids that didn’t go through latency periods.

Comment for Doyle, like for Schaffer

Oh yeah if you look at any city’s subreddit you will find any number of people (who usually live outside of the city in question) ranting about the “homeless industrial complex” and how Big Nonprofit just wants endless funding and doesn’t want to solve the issue.

Worf Worfstofferson, and I'm da Venari Ral

that political parallel bars routine about how individual states should have the power to criminalize what is an otherwise perfectly legal activity... i think, at the center of that, there's a belief that respecting the individual freedom of *the right people* is important, but so is limiting the freedom of *the wrong people.* they see the right to place limits on other ppl's freedom as an important element of our own freedom. (and the dismount....) ultimately, they just want the *right ppl* to have unrestrained power over the *wrong ppl.* because they're fucking nazis.

I'm afraid that Doyle and Schaffer were placed inside the Dinosaur Hour set as it was set alight and pushed out to the North Sea

I think being British means I don’t have enough distance from GB news to ironically enjoy it and the whole thing fills me with second hand embarrassment about how parochial the UK is. thanks for shouting out the Titan sub doc, I’m gonna check this out for sure. Expensive projects by dumbasses that went spectacularly wrong are extremely my shit. I can’t believe it’s almost 10 years since Fyre Fest doc

Stockton Rush's relatives who signed the Declaration of Independence were Richard Stockton and Benjamin Rush. Rush was a doctor. He gave Lewis and Clark laxatives that contained mercury, which later helped historians track the path they took; L&C would excrete the mercury, which remained in the soil where it could be detected many years later. Rush was also a proponent of bloodletting, at a time when the practice had been discredited. He did some arguably good stuff, but reading about him he seems like an RFK Jr. prototype. Stockton Rush was probably also related to Thomas McKeon, the only Declaration signer to publicly take back his having signed the document; the British captured him and he didn't want to die like Patrick Henry. I know all of this because I am also a relative of these three founding fathers. It has been a point of pride in my family, and was for me as well, for a pretty long time. But I looked into it a few years ago, and confirmed my suspicion that all three of those great revolutionary guys were slaveowners. I remember, when I first heard the name "Stockton Rush," thinking this jackass must have been my distant relative. I then confirmed the reason why he was named that, also confirming the albeit distant connection between me and him. And I wondered if I should try drinking mercury, to relieve myself of how I felt about it. I then forgot all about this stuff, and felt a renewed wave of grief as I listened to your podcast and was reminded. 10/10.

Listened to about 30 secs of a Bruce Springsteen podcast and then saw you guys had done more Cleese coverage and I could not have switched podcasts any quicker.

honestly I think comparing Rob Schneider to Nickelback is a little unfair to Nickelback

Some people seem to literally be unable to understand anyone who is not motivated by personal monetary gain. Kind of frightening, honestly.
