I don't know if this counts, but I only started listening to the podcast after finding the original CTH subreddit (which quickly became the only tolerable place on reddit from my perspective). Tangentially, the only reason I created a twitter account was to understand the myriad twitter references in both the subreddit and the show. I quit reddit after the purge, quit twitter after Musk bought it, but I do still keep up with the podcast for the most part. Very grateful that this place exists to continue the spirit of the original subreddit, which had long-since outgrown the podcast by the time it got banned.
Same. If I found this site now though, and checked out the podcast, I probably wouldn't listen to it for very long - it feels to me like something you had to "be there" for in the Trump admin era.
