Eh, this is a comedy podcast. Some of the saltiness from more observant Jews towards him as of late reminds me of earlier when some of the Christians would get their panties in a twist over Jesus jokes.
Right. I'm a bit exhausted at the constant anger at K&J for not sharing the audience's exact opinions. I don't care if I disagree with them sometimes. I'm here because they are likeable and funny and they unearth internet/journalism silliness that I wouldn't know about otherwise.
I understand, but for many Substacks part of the appeal is that the people running it interact occasionally w/ the comment section. We pay and Jesse calls us the Primos, but the freeloaders on the Reddit get their attention.
I’m not sure I agree that this is a comedy podcast and I don’t particularly care of either host shares all of my opinions. Sorry you’re exhausted (y’all…), but I just find it obnoxious and juvenile.
Sometimes Jesse goes on about science which is fine I guess but not what I'm here for. But the rest of the time it's like if someone was narrating an online version of a Jerry Springer show. It's funny.
Well I gave it a like and then retracted it for #3 - I agree with Tess and am finding a lot of these 'Jesse isn't Jewish enough' comments slightly wearing.
I want to give this extra likes just for #3. He doesn’t even seem to be aware that there could be a Jewish perspective worth considering.

This is how audience capture works. I hope they just keep doing their thing and don't listen to us most of the time
Don’t worry, they only pay attention to the subReddit.
There are more comments there and more importantly they’re easier to find. Substack has a long way to go if it wants to be a social network.

I guess comedy can be relative, but I'd definitely consider this a humorous podcast at the very least. I listen because it makes me smile and laugh.
cool
