Can’t believe it’s been a decade since Citations Needed started, yall probably feel old but I was too busy playing club penguin and super mario 3d world at the time to know what a politics or podcast was. I wish none of us had to learn what a podcast was but god doesn’t give with two hands
Good for them! I wouldn't be here if I hadn't been spending an unhealthy amount of time lurking on r/politics circa 2017 and hearing people talk about Chapo Trap House in the comments occasionally. Sometimes a lib accusing a poster of coming from there, more often a CTH poster finding someone in the comments and telling them they'd find a like minded community.
Same. /r/CTH getting x-posted into my feed is what exposed me to the concept of socialism and communism. I was a Bernie-style lib up until the second half of 2019 when I realized you could go further left, and that communism wasn't evil.

Good for them. Whenever anyone gripes about them, Hasan or any other left-wing media figures making a lot of money, all I can think is "it's cool that anyone is doing well, I would like to see more of us across all industries prosper."
I have never watched a chapotraphouse episode nerds
What the fuck is a chapotraphouse?
Chapo Trap House is a podcast on the media, power, PR and the history of bullshit. It is hosted by Nima Shirazi and Adam Johnson
Podcast? What do you mean podcast?
The day we all became dry
Huh, weird that they’re claiming it’s been 10 years, I could have sworn the first episode was Jul 12, 2017.
What does this have to do with Citations Needed?
A very long running bit from the old CTH subreddit. The fanbase grew more developed in theory and in some cases practice (Matt is still the GOAT) and it became a running gag to refer to the sub as the official Citations Needed subreddit and pretending not to know anything about the podcast and it carried over to here.
Yeah lol I was doing the bit
Edit: I just noticed the post description did it too lol
lmao of course.
You folks are weird
oh shit they made a hexbear podcast !
