CTH is a podcast, the subreddit was originally about it but quickly became its own thing. The podcast is your typical Brooklyn leftist hot couch thing where you get a bit of theory mixed in with a lot of jokes and parasocial relationships.

The greatest bit of irony is that in an attempt to explain the podcast, you used a super deep reference to the hot couch gag, almost like the in-jokes are completely involuntary for us at this point.

From the same episode you also have the college camping trip and Stav's grandpa, the greek failson bird collector. Definitely one of my most relistened to episodes.
