not sure if legit. Evans did a short ep on his shitty podcast about it and has this article.

    been listening to It Could Happen here semi-regularly since the election just to get their takes.

    i suppose it’s less Evans and more the other hosts that love dunking on communism whenever possible.

    I do remember Evans making pointless comments on BTB. usually just throwing “Stalin” or “Mao” in as frequently as fucking Hitler.

    Maybe it was just me but when something “authoritarian” came up it seems 90% of the time he would connect it with a socialist state instead of like, every other possible state that did worse shit

    • Yuck. I only listen to it can happen here once in a while if I’ve run out of better stuff. The ones I’ve caught were some pretty great reporting though. One of the hosts (English accent guy, I forget) traveled with migrants trying to get to the US through South/Central America.

      I haven’t heard much of this on BtB lately, but I do have an uncanny ability to tune things out.

      Either way, there’s plenty of better stuff out there.
