Fun Magician extended universe lore - this was the podcast that broke my liberal brain and pushed me towards communism.
From Wikipedia:
Mueller, She Wrote is a political podcast hosted by Allison Gill, a military veteran who worked at the United States Department of Veterans Affairs. It mixes comedy, legal commentary and political analysis, from a liberal perspective, and centers on the Mueller investigation. The original co-hosts were San Diego comedians Jordan Coburn and Jaleesa Johnson; the latter has since left the show due to a pay dispute.
I remember feeling lost after trump got elected and hoped that something would come of the Mueller report. It's wild to think I believed an FBI investigation run by a Republican would to anything to shake up the system, but there were plenty of people who believed it.
These hosts would give updates on the investigation and other bits of news, but it started feeling hollow around the third 'this time he's really in trouble!' story.
The simping for Mueller like he was going to solve things felt hollower and hollower until I stopped listening altogether.
I read up on them a few years later and saw them vote shaming people who were considering withholding their vote for healthcare and student debt forgiveness. I also found out they benefited from PPP loans they didn't have to reimburse. Hypocrisy exposed is an empty victory, but it felt vindicating to know leaving that whole bubble was a good decision.
Finally, I hate the logo so much. Like they were doing investigative journalism or something by collecting headlines from news websites.
I dunno. I just wanted to air out my vitriol while it was fresh.
Did anybody else follow it or similar podcasts before moving left?

oh yeah
The lack of laughter just added to the cringe. The Trump regime was such a bizarre time in media.
Still remember Jimmy Fallon petting trump's hair
Holy fucking cringe fest. I’ve always considered SNL to be overrated garbage but man, this is just sad. These people are way overpaid.
