Look dumbasses. We're like 10 years into Trumpland here. If your argument is still "this is just negotiations, I don't think he really means it" I don't trust you to tie your shoes, use a stove, or cut with grownup scissors. You don't belong on TV!

It suddenly occurs to me that maybe we should have waited until episode 412 to talk about this... oh well.

Check out @chrismaverick.bsky.social helping @danielpgrote.bsky.social analyze the breakup of Kitty Pryde and Pete Wisdom on a newly free-to-listen episode of Our Son Pete!

Also... all my thoughts on how #StrangerThings ended are on this week's episode of @voxpopcast.bsky.social so check it out.

what if Netflix… a company who books their decisions solely based on ROI algorithms decided to secretly create a hidden episode of the most popular show they’ve ever had… and like not promote it. You know... as a goof! You people are morons! #StrangerThings

No. Just no. I refuse to believe this many motherfuckers spent 5 seasons over 9 years not knowing they were watching a queer coming-out allegory. They're lying. Dipshits aren't THAT dumb!

🎵You're so vain... you probably think this tragic family annihilator incident is about you... You're so vain... 🎶

Dear Asshole Behind Me, Yes, I understand there aren’t many parking spots. What is your logic of honking your horn while I parallel park here? Am I supposed to say “heavens, this man behind me really wants this spot. I will abandon it as I am I intimidated by his mighty Kia!” -Love Mav

I’m pretty sure that no single person who has ever lamented “we need to teach kids cursive so they can read historic documents” has ever read one.

If the "Fuck Marry Kill" game had a 4th option what would it be? Situationship? Shoot 'em in the leg? Hand stuff? Butt stuff? Groin kick?

HOVADammit! If a device has a WiFi connection I should NOT have to reset it's clock!

I think my favorite MAGA take on Trump’s ballroom has “Obama didn’t ask permission to build his Bball court”. Thats actually true. He didn’t ask before hanging a $200 hoop on the fence of the tennis court that was already there. Temporarily! Damn! You got him!

I saw a TikTok the other day with Millenials vs GenZ where GenZ was born 1995-2015 and Millenials were '72-'95! 1972!!! I'm a millennial now! I guess GenX just doesn't exist! And my teasing game towards my now boomer wife has reached a whole new level!

I think I wanna run for president just by being a racist misogynist troll… but then once I'm elected I'm gonna do a bunch of woke socialist shit! “Nope! Sorry… I’m not really gonna jail Obama. But have some free healthcare!”

So basically the entire news media landscape (including Fox) got together and issued a joint statement that says “no Pete Hegseth… fuck you specifically!” 😂

Every year, my work hosts Games4SocialImpact where a bunch of our students compete to build socially conscious games from scratch in one weekend. It's my tradition to devote that week's episode of my show to interviewing the participants and showcasing their work. check it out (and play their games)

I love that papers are reporting that “Trump failed in his Nobel Peace Prize” as though he had a better chance at it than I dunno… me? A random barista? My cat?

I love when clickbait ragebait doesn’t even try. I just read one claiming “John Cena is blasting wokeness forced down our throats in music and pop culture.” You know… the same John Cena currently starring as a bisexual superhero.

Watching people explain “I’m not racist it’s just that BadBunny speaks Spanish…” and then slowly discovering in realtime that they are kinda racist is fascinating! So close to introspection!

Mike Johnson thinks BadBunny is a bad SuperBowl pick cause “children are watching” so better to “pick Lee Greenwood instead.” 😂 That convinced me he was doing a bit. No one is that screwed up and out of touch! Then I remembered that he proudly uses an app that texts his son whenever he jacks off.

It's not about morality, religion, family values, respect for tradition or ideology. It never was! It's about supremacy. 99.9% of antiWoke/antiDEI crusaders would put pronouns in their sigs right now if they were promised they could use the N-word without repercussion for life.

The amount of times Hegseth focused on being clean shaven in his speech about military manliness really makes me think Pete just can’t grow a beard…

There is absolutely NO WAY Trump could stay awake for this speech if he wasn't the one giving it.

Seeing people try to explain why they're mad BadBunny got the Super Bowl halftime show without saying "look, I'm just racist, ok?" has kinda made my day.

Dude… come on… I get it. If I were in a pedophile pimp’s little black book I wouldn’t want to talk about either… but releasing the Amelia Earhart files?!?! That’s just sad!!! apnews.com/article/trum...

So now that Kimmel's suspensions has been lifted, this is us talking(from this weekend) about the history of boycotts, how they work & why I said that this one wasn't really needed(as opposed to the press attack which was more useful). Anyway, also just go sub to VoxPopcast anyway. We do good stuff!

So we don't really want to talk about that guy, so instead this week we're talking about the concept of boycotts & what makes them effective and not. Interested in the history & culture of collective action? Then by all means check it out and let us know your thoughts. voxpopcast.com/wp/2025/09/2...

So boycotting Disney/ABC won’t really help here. Their hand was forced by the FCC. They know it’s bad. It's essentially blaming the parent for paying ransom rather than the kidnapper. I’m not on team capitalism(ever) but fascism is a goverment problem.

I find it absolutely fascinating that there are real life people who have UNIRONICALLY both complained that *ONE* football team shows an active superstar player's popstar girlfriend in the stands...

If you say the notion Kirk (or Trump or MAGA) is “racist” or “sexist” is ridiculous you sound stupid. If you agree with it fine… if you think it’s worth it fine… but if you can’t figure out how someone could possibly say that??? You’re a moron!

Hint: If you're mad enough that you're trying to get people fired for saying your boy was "divisive" then he was divisive! I guess y'all like cancel culture after all.

Not gonna brag but going into tonight’s Emmys I’m only 4 awards shy of an EGOT!

It's not that I'm celebrating his death. I'm not! I'm just not whitewashing him either. He wasn't an intellectual promoting free thinking and looking for harmony through debate. He wasn't even a true conservative believer.

so I noticed on last week’s #Peacemaker & paid close attention this week to confirm. (I know nothing so this is a guess not a spoiler) there’s no black people in the alternate dimension! Not even extras.

trying to debug a problem with my podcasting equipment. maybe I can solve it with a $6 cable on amazon… click next day delivery and "would you like this tomorrow or would you like to save on delivery trips and have it arrive with your other items in three days?" WHAT?!? FUCK YOU FOR EVEN ASKING!!!

Just saying… when people wishing you're dead/sad you're not is trending across MULTIPLE social networks (and YOU LITERALLY OWN ONE)… take stock of your life.

it's 2025 and the fucking president of the United States has more thoughts on the “Cracker Barrel situation” than a school shooting. What are we doing, people?!

Watching Jillian Michaels repeat the false stat "only 2% of people even owned slaves" to argue the Smithsonian should devote less time to talking about it makes me think maybe we should have like… a building you could go to… to learn shit about history!

Serious question: If your enjoyment of a football game is ruined because you can’t get past the fact that there are male cheerleaders on the sideline… have you considered that maybe YOU are the one who is gay?

I don't usually do fan theories, but… in "Across the Spider-verse" we learn that Miles exists because somewhere in the multiverse a world is missing a Spider-man. It just now occurs to me that this is the world where all the shitty Sony Spider-manless movies take place. 🤯🤯🤯

Nothing says a rich old white guy "isn’t racist" like having his rich old white friend say "I've known him for years & he’s definitely not racist!" when that guy’s also been called a racist for years.

It takes a special kind of idiot to accuse a woman of having “low IQ” in the same post as bragging about “acing a cognitive test” 5yrs into continuously being told it’s not an IQ test.

Modern ethics essay question: You’re in a desert, walking along the sand, and you come upon a turtle laying on its back, baking in the hot sun. It can’t turn over without your help. Give me five good reasons to not release the Epstein files, or at least to only release democrat names.

Seriously…. How many Superman reviews are you going to listen to that start with a proposal… if that’s not enough reason to check out this week’s podcast I don’t know what is.

So here's a secret. There is no academic liberal ideology cabal. Honestly, academics don't agree on anything. Our favorite thing to do is argue with each other. About EVERYTHING! (1/5)

ANNNNNND they're fucking actually playing YMCA in celebration... For fucks sake… JUST BLOW HIM ALREADY!!!!

Look you fucking numbskulls. He's never going to win a Nobel Peace Prize! Why do you even want him to? The whole point of the award is literally for being "the most woke!" That's what it is! HE only even wants it because he can't stand that a n*gg*r won something he can't have!

Yes… all previous presidents were dumb… but President StableGeniusNukeHurricanesCantTellTattoosArePhotoshoppedLetters is gonna end the 1000 year conflict between Judaism and Islam. Sure… let's go with that!

I do not understand the algorithms of facebook... what did I do that has made it decide that I want to see several pages and people - THAT I DON'T FOLLOW - who have AI'd and Photoshopped together fake movie posters for Beekeeper 2 - a film that does not yet exist - starring Jason Statham [1/4]...

on this week's episode we talk all about retro and nostalgic technology. Were things better in the old days and if not why do we pretend they were in our stories? Check it out and let us know what you think. voxpopcast.com/wp/2025/06/1...
