A lot of people have issues with the episode. I don't think it is woke or overly social like some complaints say. I think they just didn't attack it at a funny angle. One thing Rob has said is that a lot of episodes were inspired by listening to NPR then trying to make the gang wrong about it in opposing ways. Gun Fever Still Too Hot is the best example of that. They parrot left/right views, then approach it in insane ways and flip flop after having issues that were entirely their own fault. I think this episode is more Glenn not being there to help write the season than it becoming too social or political. It has been that way since the beginning.

People complaining about always sunny becoming political or forcing social commentary clearly haven't paid attention to the show's entire history.

oh god that makes a lot of sense lol NPR = nice polite republicans. they support US imperialism and corporatism but in a softer version than conservative news and they mix in liberal culture issues to make them seem left. basically same thing with MSNBC and CNN, new york times etc...to me the real biting satire is a few layers underneath were the writers were at with these episodes. i also think some people misunderstand what i mean with woke. nowadays its become co-opted and its a top-down means of distracting from economics or neverending war with identity issues. sunny has broached these topics in the past - "do you want a republican or democrat blasting your ass?", or the israeli guy saying their bar is on his land. but the NPR thing makes a lot of sense
