    The entire concept of the podcast is shitting on everything and the listeners are well aware of that. No one is forced to listen to it. Ironically the guy who said it is most likely autistic and a closeted star trek fan. I’m autistic as well and I don’t see an issue with making fun of it. It makes me feel more included than unnecessarily patronizing behavior.

      Of which I am not one. Hopefully you can understand my concern there. If the dudes whole thing is shock comedy and insulting stuff, that’s fine. I have no issue with that. However I have literally never heard of the podcast so I just took it at face value. My apologies for the confusion there. Had I known (on me for not googling) I wouldn’t have responded that way. Again, my apologies.

      I’m autistic as well
