Somehow I have only encountered the chapo chat fascination with Amber in impenetrable posts like this one.
I assume there was some huge fight about her I just missed on the sub back in the day but I have never found out.
Not quite unrelated - I tried listening to Chapo a month or two back, from the beginning. I made it to about ep 90 before I couldn't take it. The pod was never good and we should all be embarrassed we ever listened to it.
Oh yeah don’t do that
Outside of a couple episodes spread throughout I honestly wouldn’t recommend going back more than a few months, it’s much less entertaining when the news is several years out of date
The only timeless episodes are the movie ones
When it's more than a few weeks or months old it's contemporary history, not news.
It's honestly important to keep track of not just the events of the past which were considered worth commenting on at the time, but what those comments were. Helps you not to forget the context of the present, accidentally start thinking shit like ICE isn't exactly eh kind of fascist death squad we used to write fiction about and is just normal.
Only keep tabs on your own history if you've got an incredibly strong stomach for cringe or are just a masochist. There's a reason I delete all my posts and accounts on the reg and that reason is primarily so future me can't study them.
It's high key a cargo cult at this point.
Amber.
