Hobbs is a gem. I just listened to the episodes on Political Correctness (#123) and Cancel Culture (#125). So good.

FWIW, my SO voted for Trump. We just don't talk about politics, and somehow manage to make it work.

Those episodes were fantastic. It really shows how commentators latch on to the optics of the situation rather than the actual substance of what's trying to be addressed.
