Probably should flip the monthly contributions over to my new favourite podcasts.

OUCH.
Dan's Twitter is an echo chamber, but I think a couple months ago another podcaster called him out. Maybe it was the Decline of the West guy.
Called him out to what? Join his club of podcasters that don't release podcasts?

When/where did he do that? He hasn't released any content in months.

Re: Carlinites Turned on Their Leader
Sometimes I stay awake at night wondering who hates America more: Dan Carlin or Abu Bakr Al-Baghdadi? I lean towards Baghdadi because he runs an actual terror group, but Dan Carlin has shown repeatedly that he is against everything this country stands for. He used to be in some kind of leftist protest group that took marching orders from Moscow. They used to call him Dan Potemkim.

I hear he founded ISIS, actually. That's where your buck-a-show goes.heydaralon wrote:Sometimes I stay awake at night wondering who hates America more: Dan Carlin or Abu Bakr Al-Baghdadi?

I think he lied about having a family too for listener sympathy. I can't believe I fell for that one.
