I hit podcast singularity with this one: I was listening in my car at a stoplight, and right outside my open window, a guy got onto his bike and started playing the exact same episode.

WTF is “the game” they never explain it

Robert Altman film Brace is referring to is The Long Goodbye. Henry Gibson (the Satanist doctor from The Burbs and Nazi from The Blues Brothers) plays the Syanon guy's role.

I would never forget my favorite movie of all time…it’s actually California Split, where a Synanon member who worked for the movie as a sound engineer, got some members background roles

They explain it in Ep. 1. It's like a struggle session crossed with the dozens crossed with an AA meeting.

YC is amazing, what a performance. The production on these episodes is so masterful and adds so much depth. And Brace, I wish I could just give you a big dad hug and tell you everything is going to be ok. Really heartbreaking stuff, but shows your strength that you can do this series. This is the best revenge you could possibly get, besides beating them with a spiked bat and then throwing them to starving pit bulls or something.

This series is so beautifully produced and powerfully written. Made me cry from the intro onwards in episode one. Thank you for telling your story Brace. I’m angry and sorry for what was done to you and so many other children. I hope this series helps them too. You should all be nominated for some kind of award for this. Yung Chomsky: the music is so good, god damn!

Crazy public schools use Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs to train teachers on how to address the students. “If they don’t have that foundational level of needs, how are they supposed to learn???” Lol in-fucking-sane.

The music theme reminds me of “Yandel x Anuel AA - Por Mí Reggae Muero 2020”

You're right. I can vouch for you. You are RIGHT. That is the mindset, that's the lie, that's the promise, that's the hope.
